Chapter 4 What to do When the Door is Closed?
d the others quickly stepped forward to pay their respects."No need for formalities!" Qian Sichin waved his hand and strode up to Xiao Yuge, seeing the wound on her hand, his brow furrowed slightly: "...Soon, the blood flowing from the wound began to slowly turn red. Xiao Yuge spat out the last mouthful of blood, wiped his mouth, and let out a sigh of relief: "Well, it should be fine."
The man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his limbs seemed to be able to move again. It seemed that the little girl had truly detoxified him. Just as he was about to sit up, Xiao Yuge beat him to it and jabbed him with a silver needle somewhere on his body. In an instant, the man was immobilized once more. He was both surprised and angry: "What are you doing"
"Offend me! I know you want to kill me and silence me, but I can't die yet!" Xiao Yuge stood up and shoved another pill into his hand. "Take this and it will completely remove the poison from your body! The anesthetic in the needle will wear off automatically in half an hour. Goodbye! Or rather... never see you again!"
After finishing her words, she looked around, slightly frowned. Having wasted so much time here, it seemed like she couldn't go to Qijian Pavilion tonight, she could only find another opportunity. So, she returned to the Xiangfu along the original road.
The man watched her retreating figure and frowned secretly. He closed his eyes, gathered his strength, and the silver needles on his body flew out suddenly, landing in the grass beside him. He propped himself up and stood up, moving his limbs. Besides a slight numbness, he felt no discomfort.
Thinking about what she had said to him before leaving, he unconsciously touched his own lips: Had he just said he was going to kill her to silence her
The Crimson Flame Snake is only found in the Northern Desert Crimson Flame Kingdom. They dare to reach out to him, it seems some people need a lesson!
Then he blew a sharp whistle into the night sky!
Soon, several men in black suits appeared behind him in an orderly fashion!
"My apologies, young master. It's my fault for being late!" The leading boy knelt on one knee and pleaded guilty. Seeing the wounds on the man, he immediately became nervous: "Master, you're hurt"
"No problem!" The man waved his hand dismissively, facing away from them with his hands behind his back, gazing in the direction Xiao Yuge had left. "Mingyang, find out her identity!"
"Yes!" The young man named Mingyang quickly disappeared in the direction where Xiao Yuge had left.
"Assemble the troops, sever an arm of the Chi Flame Kingdom!" The man slowly drew a dazzling red token from his person. It was none other than the Three Kingdoms Command, capable of summoning armies across the land!
Legend has it that once the Three Kingdoms Decree is issued, a bloody storm will surely erupt!
Soon, a young man named Mingyang in dashing attire appeared respectfully behind the man.
"Found it"
The young man nodded. "Well, she's the second miss of Xiang Shangshu's family, Xiao Yuge."
"Xiao Yu Ge It's actually her!" The man repeated the name, seemingly surprised: "Keep an eye on her. If she gets into danger, help her out secretly." Just as a way to repay her for saving his life with the antidote.
"Yes!" The young boy was puzzled. Why would his grandpa suddenly be so attentive to a little girl But he didn't dare ask too much: "By the way, Grandpa, will you be attending the Lotus Flower Banquet in a few days The Emperor has sent word to the Manor."
The man didn't even think, casually waving his hand: "That kind of boring banquet, would this king attend Tell them I declined." Then he thought for a moment and asked again, "Is this hosted by the Empress Are all the noble ladies in the capital supposed to go"
"Yes."
"Then tell the Emperor that this Prince will go himself at the appointed time." The man's lips curled into a slight smile. He suddenly felt quite eager to see the little girl's expression when she saw him again.
"Yes!"
The next morning.
Xiao Yu Ge and Xiao Yu Fu had just paid their respects to their parents and stepped out when they saw a maid carrying a pot of flowers. The flowers were quite unique. Upon inquiry, they learned that it was sent by Liang Wang Qian Li Ye to Xiao Yu Fu. He said he had spent a lot of money to buy this rare variety of flower.
Xiao Yufu was both beautiful and talented, practically the ideal woman in the eyes of every man in the capital. King Liang's infatuation with her wasn't a new thing, so when he learned she had been frightened, sending flowers to comfort her was entirely expected.
Xiao Yu Ge was staring at the flower, lost in thought. It was because of this very unique flower that, in her past life, she had gotten back to her own room under the pretense of a farewell gift from Xiao Yu Fu. As a result...
Xiao Yu Fu seeing this, smiled and pulled Xiao Yu Ge's hand: "This is a rare Xian Zi Lan orchid, if sister likes it, take it." Even the maidservant on the side felt that the young lady was so kind. This was a precious flower sent by the Liang King, and the young lady actually gave it to the second miss without batting an eyelid, truly doting on her younger sister.
"No need, I don't know how to take care of flowers. What use would they be to me Besides, this was sent by His Highness the King of Liang to my sister. Only someone as knowledgeable about flowers as my sister could do justice to his intentions. As for me, I wouldn't want to ruin such precious flowers."
Xiao Yu Fu was a lover of flowers. Under Xiao Yu Ge's repeated persuasion, she allowed An Ling to carry the flower over.
"Sister, I don't feel well, so I'm going back to my room first." After being reborn, Xiao Yuge didn't want to spend much time with Xiao Yufei at all.
"Good."
Xiao Yu Fu looked at Xiao Yu Ge's back, her willow eyebrows slightly locked: "An Ling, do you feel that the second young lady is a little different" She couldn't tell exactly what was different, she just felt something was strange.
"Miss, the second miss has always been like this," An Ling said, rolling her eyes. "It's fortunate that you are so kind, Miss, and always give in to the second miss. Such a precious flower would be truly wasted if she were to take it."
Xiao Yufu smiled gently: "Father and mother have been very kind to me, and my younger sister is the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family. I should give way to my younger sister. Go back to your room."
"Well, I'll take this flower to water it and then place it on the table in the courtyard. When Miss is tired from practicing her dance, she can sit down and enjoy it properly." Anling happily held the flowerpot.
"No watering! Just place it on the patio table!" Xiao Yufu's face changed slightly, she urged repeatedly.
As soon as she heard the footsteps of the master and servant disappear, Xiao Yu Ge's lips curved into a slight smile, and she instructed Qing Luo: "Qing Luo, no matter who comes later, just say I'm injured and resting."
"Alright, Miss." Though the young lady had run out last night, her injuries were healed... Qing Luo was full of questions, but he knew that if the young lady gave an order, there must be a reason behind it.
Xiao Yu Ge was fiddling with the medicinal herbs in the apothecary. After a while, she heard Luo say that Crown Prince Qian Si Chen had just arrived and was now in Miss Eldest's courtyard.
Fish is coming!
Xiao Yu ge stood up straight and brushed the dust off her hands: "Qing Luo, let's go for a walk. " If she was right, there would definitely be a good show later.
"Ge'er, Mother just happened to be going to take a look at Fu'er's preparation for the lotus flower dance. If you have nothing to do, come with me too. It's a good chance to learn from Fu'er properly!"
Unexpectedly, as Xiao Yuge had just stepped out of the courtyard, she ran into Madam Xiao face-to-face.
"Alright, Mother," Xiao Yu Ge affectionately supported Xiao Fu Ren, her face radiating pure innocence. She had been worried about not having anyone to go with, and luckily, Xiao Fu Ren arrived.
Upon arriving at the Hibiscus Courtyard, they found the gate firmly shut. Madam Xiao furrowed her brow slightly: "What is this girl doing Closing the courtyard gates in broad daylight"."Sister, I don't feel well, so I'm going back to my room first." After being reborn, Xiao Yuge didn't want to spend much time with Xiao Yufei at all."Good."Xiao Yu Fu looked at Xiao Yu Ge's back, her...
