Chapter 508 Is Princess Nanyang really going to be the future Queen?



Yun Duoduo heard the voice in Xi Jing's heart.

Since the defense map is in Xi Jing's palace, we need to find a way to sneak in.

Just then, Xi Jing's guard walked up to him and whispered a few words in his ear. Xi Jing then hurriedly left.

Yun Duoduo watched Xi Jing leave and breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as that lunatic isn't around, she can move around freely.

She suddenly noticed that Ren Lao was looking at her with a troubled expression.

"Renlao, if the study is inconvenient to enter, then it's fine not to go."

Yun Duoduo comforted Ren Lao, saying that since the defense map was not in the study but in Xi Jing's bedroom, there was no need to go to the study, and she was not interested in Xi Chu's calligraphy and paintings.

The current goal is to get into the study.

Ren Lao looked at Yun Duoduo with some surprise, then nodded.

Seeing that he still hadn't left, Yun Duoduo asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Would you like some more probiotics?"

Yun Duoduo thought that the medicine she had given Ren Lao before had cured him, and he wanted some more to make his bowel movements smoother.

Ren Lao waved his hand repeatedly.

"No, it's not about that. I'm all better now."

He looked at Yun Duoduo hesitantly.

Having experienced what happened last time, he completely acknowledged Yun Duoduo's medical skills.

"What's up?"

Yun Duoduo looked at him.

Ren Lao bit his lip and said, "Princess, a good friend of mine is ill and would like to have you take a look at him, is that alright?"

"No one in the palace can do anything about it."

[My good friend needs to see a doctor?]

Ren Lao saw that Yun Duoduo didn't speak, so he assumed that she was unwilling.

He knew that even the imperial physicians in the palace were unwilling to treat eunuchs and palace maids, let alone Yun Duoduo, who was a princess from Nanyang.

Previously, she was only willing to treat him because of the king's influence.

He quickly said, "My friend is not some lowly servant, but a palace maid who serves in the King's bedchamber!"

"She's already a first-class palace maid, and in a few years, she'll be able to become an aunt!"

Ren Lao thought that if he raised his friend's social standing, Yun Duoduo might be more willing to see a doctor.

Yun Duoduo's heart trembled suddenly.

[A palace maid serving in the King's bedchamber?!]

[Wow, this is the perfect opportunity!]

[I'm really worried about how to sneak into Xi Jing's bedchamber and get the defense map hidden under his pillow.]

"Quick, tell me, what's wrong?" Yun Duoduo took a big gulp of water and said quickly.

"Um……"

Seeing Ren Lao's hesitant expression, Yun Duoduo said directly, "Just let her come over, I'll take a look at her!"

Ren Lao was overjoyed: "Thank you, Princess!"

After thanking Yun Duoduo, Ren Lao quickly left. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, an unfamiliar palace maid appeared in front of Yun Duoduo.

"This servant greets Your Highness. May Your Highness be blessed with longevity and good health!"

The palace maid knelt on the ground and bowed to Yun Duoduo, unsure of how to address her.

She was a princess of Nanyang, but rumors circulated in the palace that she was the future queen.

Before things are certain, it's safer for her to address her as "princess."

"Get up."

Yun Duoduo said softly.

"What illness? Is it irregular menstruation? Or acne on your face? Or perhaps you want to ask about matters of the heart..."

Yun Duoduo sized her up, observing her expression. Back in Nanyang, these were the kinds of people the palace maids came to see most often.

The palace maid bit her lip, seemingly very embarrassed, and said, "Princess, I didn't come here to see about these illnesses."

"This servant has body odor."

Yun Duoduo blinked and suddenly realized why the palace maid was standing so far away from her and hadn't let her take her pulse. It turned out that she was afraid that her scent would bother her.

"The smell gets really strong in the summer, and even the King dislikes me. I'm almost losing my position as the head palace maid!"

The palace maid's voice trembled with tears, her heart filled with anxiety and grievance.

Yun Duoduo was both amused and exasperated. The people in the Western Chu palace all had illnesses that were not life-threatening but caused great suffering.

In fact, body odor can't even be considered a disease.

Yun Duoduo gently comforted her, "Don't worry, since you've come to me, I'll definitely help you. Just wait."

Yun Duoduo went to the medicine box under the bed in the bedroom, took out a bottle of antiperspirant and deodorant, walked to the place where she was meeting the palace maid, and handed the antiperspirant and deodorant to the palace maid whose face was flushed.

"Take this."

The palace maid took the pink antiperspirant and deodorant, and looked at the item in her hand with curiosity and confusion.

She had never seen it before and didn't know how to open it.

Seeing this, Yun Duoduo took the antiperspirant and body lotion into her hand, unscrewed the cap, and fiddled with the rollerball on it.

"Look, like this, just apply it under your armpits every morning," Yun Duoduo said, gesturing as she spoke.

The palace maid suddenly understood, and she looked at Yun Duoduo gratefully: "Thank you, Princess!"

"However, this antiperspirant deodorant only treats the symptoms, not the root cause."

"To fundamentally change body odor, you still need to adjust your diet."

"Eat less meat and spices, such as fennel and cardamom. Eating too much of these things will make your body odor stronger."

Yun Duoduo continued, "Eat more vegetables, drink more herbal tea, and if you keep doing this in the long run, you'll be fine."

The palace maid silently recited Yun Duoduo's words, her face solemn and serious.

"Thank you, Princess!"

Yun Duoduo nodded.

Since this person is a first-class palace maid serving Xi Fengpi, one must gain her trust to infiltrate her bedchamber.

"Oh, by the way, this is your king's medicine. Could you please take it to him for me?"

Yun Duoduo took out some cough medicine from the medicine box and handed it to the palace maid.

"Your Majesty is gradually getting better after taking my medicine, so you must not stop."

Yun Duoduo deliberately said some things to make the palace maids think that she had a good relationship with Xi Jing and that she was very concerned about Xi Jing's illness.

"This servant will certainly deliver the medicine."

The palace maid's gaze towards Yun Duoduo changed again, from initial gratitude to current respect.

It turns out that the princess also cured the king's illness.

It seems the King truly treats the princess exceptionally well; is she really destined to be the future Queen?

She suddenly realized that she couldn't take the princess's things for free.

"Princess, I hope you won't find this offensive."

She took a small piece of gold from her bosom and placed it on the table in front of the two of them.

“Take it back quickly. What I gave you is not worth that much money.”

The palace maid was a little embarrassed, unsure of what to give Yun Duoduo.

"If you really want to thank me, just send me some food from the imperial kitchen when it's convenient."

The palace maid nodded repeatedly: "This servant will remember, thank you, Princess!"
