“What should we do?" As Nie Wuying was worried about her sister-in-law, Commandery Princess Nanzhang was in tears in Ruyi Garden, tugging at a sleeve of Daiguo Grand Princess and sobbing, “Since I was married, Virtuous Consort has always been lukewarm towards me. And I couldn’t help scolding her niece in front of the crowd this time. How could she help Prince of Wei?”
Daiguo Grand Princess was gloomy and said with anger, “If you had been so sensible earlier, wouldn't everything have been fine?"
“How was I supposed to know that Jiang Muting was in that pavilion?” Commandery Princess Nanzhang muttered in grievance “I wouldn't go in if I knew. The most hateful person is Song Yixiao! If you hadn't been so kind to help my cousin Roumei and her to comfort Cousin Nie, and if you hadn't sent my husband and me to accompany them, how would I have been so patient to hang around outside with her in such a chilly winter? It turned out that she sat by and watched Yuan Xu
Although Commandery Princess Qingjiang thought Yuan Xuepei and his sister couldn’t escape, Song Yixiao still went to Caixia Villa before she went back to her room to pack up a change of clothes and take Nie Wuying to Yaohua Venue, “Aunt Daiguo will definitely come to Buyue Villa tomorrow to condemn me. I don’t want to suffer this, so I’d like to run away. Do you want to come along? According to Aunt Daiguo’s temperament, as you all know, if you don’t leave and are caught by her, you won’t get past her easily.”“It’s not necessary.” Yuan Xue’e changed her face at the news and went to call her brother out to discuss countermeasures hurriedly. However, Yuan Xuepei shook his head with a smile after hearing the story, saying, “The heir of Marquis Fuyang is here too. I’m at least experienced hardship together with him. He won’t let Her Highness come to trouble me personally. As for the others, I don’t think they can make things difficult for me!”Song Yixiao look
According to the arrangement of Commandery Princess Qingjiang, Song Yixiao and Nie Wuying should go back to the imperial capital after spending one night in Yaohua Venue.However, you just never knew what would happen. Commandery Princess Qingjiang let Nie Wuying and Song Yixiao get away from the dinner in Ruyi Garden on the ground that Nie Wuying was sick. Unexpectedly, the excuse just came true!The next morning, Song Yixiao suddenly awoke, feeling too hot. She opened her eyes and found in surprise that Nie Wuying sleeping next to her touched like fire, who was in a fever!Song Yixiao hastily got off bed to summon servants while dressing herself up in a hurry.When Yuedeng and Liyu came into the room and saw what happened, they also felt at a loss, “Your Highness, how come?”“Why do you bother to ask?” Song Yixiao tied up the belt roughly and touched the forehead of Nie Wuying only to find that it was as hot as a pie
Yuedeng would never forget to send words to Commandery Princess Qingjiang. After all, Su Shaoge had some medical skills, but he was not assuring than a real doctor. As to whether Daiguo Grand Princess would find out about Song Yixiao’s whereabouts for that, Song Yixiao and Yuedeng both knew that it was not the time to worry about this.Afterwards, Liyu came back from Lunong Building and reported, “Mr. Su said that the prescription was to make Miss Nie sweat. Now we should wait for Her Ladyship’s fever to go down. If it does, she will be fine!”Song Yixiao and Jiang Muting heard the report and both touched Nie Wuying’s forehead only to find that she did sweat a lot but her fever didn’t go down by much. Thus, they got nervous again.Yet, since Su Shaoge told them to wait, they couldn’t do anything but to ask the servant to bring new quilts and replace the old one in case Nie Wuying would feel uncomfortable with the wetted quilt. Then, a man of Bu
When the page-boy went out to guard the door, Su Shaoge didn’t immediately ask Song Yixiao why she came in disguise. Instead, he told her politely that he had to change clothes in the inner chamber.After Song Yixiao agreed, he turned around to enter the inner chamber.After a while, he came out of the inner chamber. He was wearing a change of dark purple one-piece clothing with a belt tied around his waist. The belt was embedded with a bright pearl, on which there was a piece of beautiful jade and an embroidered sachet. His black hair was neatly put into the golden hollow cap, fixed with a jade hairpin. The hairpin looked like a bamboo branch, made of fine jade and delicately carved, which appeared as bright as the moonlight against the light reflected by the snow from outside the window.He looked gracefully elegant in casual wear when he was drawing in front of the desk, with his hair disheveled just now. At the moment, he became a young mas
After leaving Lunong Building, Song Yixiao stood on the path back to Yaohua Venue for a long time before she shrugged off the snow on her coat. Then she just turned around with determination and returned to Lunong Building!“Why are you back?” Again, just like before, the two guards were guarding the door, who had to report on Song Yixiao’s request of meeting; then the page-boy came to usher her inside. The page-boy’s eyes were full of impatience and resentment. “You’ve kept our Young Master disturbed for that long. I just can’t bother to talk to you. Why can’t you remember all the messages and say them in one time so as not to disturb our Young Master again and again?”“I’m so sorry.” Song Yixiao knew that she was in the wrong and she just lowered her head with embarrassment.Hearing this, the page-boy only said coldly, “Follow me!”Su Shaoge was still in the warm chamber at the moment and felt rather surprised to hear that “Yuede
Song Yixiao had no idea how long the coma lasted. When she awoke from it, she realized that she was being dragged forward by something. Instantly, she thought of what she had seen before the coma and then turned around in fear.Just as expected, the hound that scared her into a coma before was biting her coat and dragging her forward on the snowfield.Song Yixiao was so close to fainting again. However, when the hound noticed that she had awoken, it just let go of her and kept whining, walking around her nonstop, as if it was begging her to do something.“You want me to go into the woods?” Song Yixiao realized that it didn’t intend to hurt her, finally feeling less frightened. Then she attempted to point at the direction where it dragged her to. “Did anything happen over there?”The hound barked for a few times and then dragged her again by biting her clothes. It couldn’t speak, but its action obviously testified Song Yixiao’s conj
When Song Yixiao arrived at Ruyi Garden herself, it was already late.But there were still five or six armored guards under the high-hanging lamps at the gate.Song Yixiao headed in with cold face. Suddenly, two halberds crossed in front of her with a clunk. The left guard said gruffly, “Since the heir of the prince is still ill and lying on the bed, we are under orders by Her Highness not to let anyone in. Please don’t disturb him!”“What if I make sure to disturb?” Song Yixiao had a disdainful glance at the white tip of the halberds and said scornfully, “Aunt Daiguo doesn’t even care about her niece’s life anymore. Compared with that, what does the life of a ‘niece-in-law’ matter, who was going to be forced to die by her?”She raised her steps towards the inside when saying as if she didn’t see the blades close at hand. Although the two armored guards were murderous, they actually didn’t dare to let her crash into the blades. See
A while later, in Buyue Villa.Song Yixiao was filled with shame, “Sister, just now, I…”The exhausted Commandery Princess Qingjiang waved her hand without waiting for her to speak, “Wuying fell ill suddenly, and both Ping’an and Doctor Han happened not to be in a good condition. As your eldest sister, I didn’t offer to help and instead, I asked you to run around to deal with these things. I understand your suffering this day. So, it was nothing for what you just did at the first sight of Xubai when you were full of worries and grievance. But it was not very suitable in such occasion just now. I’ve sent my servants to warn them to watch their tongue.”In the meantime, Commandery Princess Qingjiang knitted her eyebrows, “However, you need to be more sophisticated from now on. Otherwise, although Xubai and you are a couple, you are going to be discussed when it was spread!”“You are right!” Song Yixiao couldn’t say anything to defend
