With great caution, Wei Mengying finally conducted the two princesses to the back hall. Dowager Consort of Hengshan didn’t advance to welcome them on her own, but she still stood up when the princesses entered the hall.Under the watchful eyes of the people, Princess Changxing didn’t set against Song Yixiao deliberately. After sitting down mannerly, she expressed her wishes to Dowager Consort of Hengshan on behalf of the Empress Dowager, Emperor and Empress and then greeted the titled ladies with relatively high ranking.She bore herself well, kind and yet exalted, maintaining a demeanor of an imperial daughter.Yet, she let Princess Yushan do most of the talking. Although she was smiling all the time, she spoke once in a whileObviously, despite dotage on the princesses, they were still well educated.Song Yixiao felt relieved. Since the two princesses didn’t want to dishonor themselves, there might be a way out regar

Ms. Zhao said with a bitter smile, “Qiaoqin arrived and left in a hurry, who said she must go back and report on completion of her task to Her Highness the Princess Consort. She told me nothing but that these two kinds of medicine ought to be used!”Song Yixiao didn’t expect to dispel her doubt immediately so she was just checking. Then she heard Ms. Zhao’s reply and said in a comforting tone, “Since the medicine is ready, this shouldn’t be the first time that he has been like this. Supposedly, he will get better after taking the medicine. We may as well rest assured.”“Hopefully, it is not a chronic illness!” Ms. Zhao, not as optimistic as her, glanced at Jian Xubai who looked so pale, and couldn’t help sighing and praying heartily, “Duke Jian is only 17 years old!”If his illness left a lingering effect at such a young age, who knew how many more years he could live? By then it might be a relief for him to die, but what could Miss Song do the

Song Yixiao didn’t go back to the Hanxia Villa with complex feelings until dusk.Now Wei Chan was advised by Ms. Zhao to have supper, took a shower and returned to her room.“Today she has been occupied for the whole day. No need to disturb her!” Song Yixiao heard the report and said, “Let my cousin rest well!”She had had supper in Wei Mengying’s place. Now that she was back to her own place, she sat for a while and then was going to have a bath.Ms. Zhao sent Jinxun away and followed Song Yixiao into the room for offering service. When Song Yixiao took off her upper garment, her thickly wrapped left arm was exposed. Upon seeing that, Ms. Zhao couldn’t help asking in shock, “Your Ladyship, were you troubled after returning to the feast?”“No.” Song Yixiao heaved a sigh and hinted at her to unwrap the bandage, saying in a low voice, “Mother asked me about the ins and outs of the matter. Besides, she has heard that Her

Song Yixiao didn’t want to mess with the problem in Prince of Hengshan’s mansion, but as a saying went, if you played with fire, you got burned. She was not the one who played with fire only but the one who grew up with the fire and still hadn’t stopped!Therefore, having sensed Wei Mengying’s intention, Song Yixiao felt worried about Lu Guanlun and meanwhile couldn’t do anything but to look after Lu Guanyun well first.Probably because Wei Mengying had talked well to Lu Guanyun before, after she left, he clung to Song Yixiao then.He insisted on her feeding him, pouring water for him, playing with him and even sleeping with him at night. Song Yixiao had no other choice but to yield to his request.She was in “recuperation” so she had nothing to do. It was okay that her brother clung to her tightly.As such, she had no time to inquire about Wei Chan.When Song Yixiao just took off her coat for a bath the n

But Cui Jianlian shook her head and said, “Your Highness, he left hurriedly. I was afraid to delay the treatment of Young Master Zhuo. So I didn’t ask him closely.”At this time, both the Empress Dowager and Jinguo Grand Princess couldn’t wait to let servant come.The Empress Dowager sent people to the Imperial Academy of Medicine to ask the situation. But the Grand Princess couldn’t wait. She stood up directly and wanted to go there. “Doctor Han is taking care of Roumei. If Ping’an only has the indisposition, why do they call another doctor? Mother, I won’t feel relieved before I see him by myself!”The Empress Dowager thought so, too. She immediately nodded, “Send me information in time. Don’t let me worry!”Pei Yourui came with Jinguo Grand Princess. At present, Jinguo Grand Princess left before the feast was over because she worried about her grandson. Pei Yourui couldn’t stay here as if nothing happened. So she also offered to
