Chapter 400: Resentful Woman
The next day, the morning light was dim and the mist was like gauze, obscuring everything. Among the green branches, the stamens of the disc-sized peonies were covered with dewdrops, and the faint fragrance filled the courtyard.
The vermilion palace gate was tightly closed, and two rows of palace maids in green attire were waiting outside the gate early in the morning, waiting respectfully in silence!
Not far behind this group of people, in a cluster of rare and precious green peonies, three people were stealthily poking their heads out and looking over here furtively.
"Why hasn't the master come out yet? I've been boiling the medicine for an hour."
"Is it still early?"
"It's late. The sun has been out for a long time."
"Wait a little longer, the master hates getting up in the morning now, and I guess he's still lying in bed with his mistress in his arms!"
"You can't do anything, why are you still holding me?"
"That's what you don't understand, isn't it? Holding a soft, fragrant, warm jade in my arms, it's comfortable even if I don't do anything~"
"Then let's wait a little longer..."
They waited from morning till noon, but the vermilion palace gate was still closed.
The three people who were standing in the sun among the flowers and were almost dried into dried fish, looked at each other with bad expressions, because they had realized that something was wrong.
"I have a very bad feeling now..."
"Me too, but...but my master is a man of his word and never goes back on his word."
"You're right. If my cousin doesn't want to agree, no one can do anything about it. But since he has agreed, he will definitely not break his promise!"
"I also know that what my master hates most in his life is people who don't keep their promises!"
The more the three people said this, the less confident they became, because they suddenly realized that their affirmation and certainty about their master's things all had a premise, and that premise was Xiao Tu!
In the bedroom, golden sunlight shines through the gauze curtains and falls on the low-key and luxurious bed curtains.
Under the black silk quilt, a pair of snow-white jade legs were kicking the man who was wrapped around her.
"Hurry up and get up. The court officials should have entered the palace by now."
The man grabbed her slender white feet, placed them on his lips and kissed them, then chuckled, "Just let them wait~"
Xiaotu snorted with sleepy eyes, "Stop messing around, I want to sleep a little longer~"
Seeing that she was really sleepy, Ning Cuo smiled and leaned over, kissing her between the eyebrows, "Then I will come back early to accompany you."
Xiaotu grunted and turned over, continuing to sleep.
Ning Cuo looked at her dotingly and curled the corners of his mouth, then he lifted the heavy curtains and got out of bed.
The palace door was finally opened, and the maids filed in. Ning Cuo washed up and walked out of the palace with a happy face. Then, she was directly faced with three faces that seemed to be filled with a thousand years of misery and resentment.
Ningcuo, "......"
He was stunned for a moment, then his smiling face turned a little unhappy, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you that the three of you are not allowed to appear here?"
Xiao Lezi said hesitantly, "Master, you forgot, Doctor Li said yesterday that we should renew the medicine as soon as we wake up in the morning..."
Ning Cuo raised his eyebrows, as if that was the case, but he still said, "This is just once. Next time I go to the front to drink, you three are not allowed to come here."
The three of them still stared at him intently after hearing this.
Doctor Li stammered and tried to test her, "Master, yesterday, after you drank that medicine, did you have any..."
Ning Cuo smiled upon hearing this and nodded, saying, "The medicine is quite good. It actually makes me a little braver after drinking it. I'll keep it ready tonight!"
