Qin Weiyang, exhausted from her failed attempt, fell back into the arms of two palace maids in a fit of rage.
Noticing that Black Owl had wrapped a rope around her wrist pulse, as if he were examining her pulse through a thread, her mood improved somewhat. She panted and giggled, "Hehe, Doctor Xiao is really cautious. There are no outsiders here, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid I'll eat you?"
That was quite a provocative remark.
Black Owl tossed aside the red thread in his hand, a half-smile playing on his lips: "I'm afraid Consort Qin might suddenly die and then blame it on me."
"What?" Qin Weiyang didn't react for a moment.
Didn't he start to compromise? Didn't he take her pulse by feeling her pulse with a thread? Why is he suddenly cursing her to die?
"You are terminally ill and beyond saving. Forgive me for not being able to save a dead man. Farewell," Black Owl announced Qin Weiyang's death sentence in a song-like manner. Knowing that there was no point in lingering with her any longer, he turned and walked away with an extremely flamboyant gait.
Just now, he sent a lot of things to Qin Weiyang along the red rope.
He didn't know what kind of medicine it was or what it was used for, but whatever Xiao Yao'er gave him were good things.
Watching the crimson figure leave behind two curses and depart as if discarding worn-out shoes without looking back, Qin Weiyang was so angry that her vision blurred. She staggered back into the arms of two palace maids and mumbled several times, "Fine! Fine! Fine!"
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Such an ungrateful person can be crippled. It's not worth getting angry over him." Qi Ying had also suffered at the hands of Hei Xiao, so her words of advice were particularly hateful.
Qin Weiyang nodded repeatedly: "I will cripple him! Of course I will cripple him! Not only him, but anyone who dares to block my way, I will not let go!"
After saying that, she suddenly felt unwell and quickly grabbed the hands of the two palace maids: "Quickly help me back."
Seeing that Qin Weiyang looked really bad, Qixuan and Qiying quickly helped her away.
Ji Fengyao and Shanyu Heye were leading their maids along the lake, enjoying the beautiful scenery, when suddenly Eunuch De came over with a whisk in his hand.
"This old servant greets the Ninth Prince's Consort and Consort Jin." After finishing his greetings, Dan Dan turned to Ji Fengyao and said, "Ninth Prince's Consort, His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress invite you."
"Consort Jin..."
Ji Fengyao didn't want to leave Shanyu Heye alone and was about to call her along when Eunuch De interrupted her in time: "Ninth Princess, Her Majesty the Empress knows that Miss Chen Er had a misunderstanding with you. She has come here specifically to invite you so that Miss Chen Er can apologize and reconcile with you. Miss Chen Er is very concerned about her reputation. If there are other people present, I'm afraid things will only get worse."
Upon hearing this, Ji Fengyao knew that it was probably not a good thing, so she did not insist on taking Shanyu Heye with her: "Very well, then I will go by myself. Consort Jin, if you are tired from walking around, you can go back to the ship first, and you don't need to wait for me."
Shanyu Heye nodded, his eyes meeting Ji Fengyao's in unspoken understanding before they parted ways.
Eunuch De led Ji Fengyao to a quiet courtyard surrounded by neighbors, bowed and gestured for her to enter: "Please, Ninth Princess Consort, His Majesty is waiting for you inside."
Isn't it the Emperor and Empress, and Chen Ziying with them too?
Ji Fengyao was puzzled and took a step into the courtyard, but the three maids behind her were stopped by Eunuch De.
"His Majesty said that he has important matters to discuss with the Ninth Princess Consort. All other irrelevant persons may wait here."
"That won't do. Our lady has also said that when we're out, I can't leave our young lady's side for even a moment!"
Xi Que was about to get physical with Eunuch De when Ji Fengyao noticed that the Imperial Guards stationed on both sides were casting unfriendly glances at her. She quickly stopped her to prevent her from getting hurt: "Xi Que, it's alright. The three of you can wait for me here."
