Divine Doctor Poison Concubine: Miss Waste

Chapter 273: During the Banquet (5)
The two girls following Xia Yumeng, one is about ten years old, with two buns, the buns are tied into bows with pink ribbons on both sides, the small faces are round, and the big eyes are very strange , this is Xia Yutong, the eldest daughter of the third uncle's family.

And the other woman, though not delicate and elegant, has a tranquil face, with a faint timidity and cowardice. This is Xia Shuangshuang, her younger sister, who is also her step-mother.

"Yeah, Yumeng, Fourth Sister, and Fifth Sister have been waiting here for my sister. I was very anxious when I didn't see my sister coming. If I hadn't met His Highness the Seventh Prince just now, Yumeng thought that my sister was still injured and couldn't come here. It's over." Xia Yumeng said with a very sincere smile.

Xia Qingge chuckled: "Please trouble my sister to wait here, the banquet is about to start, let's go now!"

"Well, okay!" Xia Yumeng nodded, and walked in front side by side with Xia Qingge, Xia Shuangshuang and Xia Yutong walked behind, the four of them were silent all the way, and walked towards Qinghua Palace in a well-mannered manner.

And just as she was passing through a peony garden, she saw a maidservant in a light pink palace dress walking quickly with something in her hand just as she turned the corner.

She lowered her head, as if in a hurry, she didn't notice the four people walking towards her in front of her.

Xia Yumeng and Xia Qingge were walking side by side. When they found this maidservant, they instinctively wanted to dodge, but they didn't want to. When Xia Qingge just wanted to dodge to the left, she didn't want to. Someone behind her seemed to have stepped on her in a panic. clothes, and when she was about to remove it, it was too late, a pot of hot soup was poured straight on her body, but at this moment she pulled the wound unluckily, her brows furrowed tightly, He could only close his eyes and wait for the pot of water to splash on his face.

But at this moment, a strong zhenqi came out, and the pot of soup that was sprinkled on Xia Qingge had already been knocked down to the ground by his palm.

"Are you okay?" Murong Yu came to Xia Qingge's side, lowered his head anxiously to check if she was injured.

Xia Qingge shook his head, implying that he didn't need to worry, Murong Yu Shunzi coldly glanced at the maids on the ground, secretly resenting that there was no moment of peace in this palace.

"Miss—please make amends, miss, this servant didn't do it on purpose, servant—" The servant girl trembled with fright, and knelt in front of Xia Qingge, not even daring to lift her head.

"Which palace are you from?" Before Xia Qingge could speak, Murong Yu lowered his head and spoke softly, but his voice could not help but be filled with anger.

"Back——returning to the young prince, the servant is—the servant is Bixin, the maid in Concubine Degui's palace. Because Concubine Degui is not feeling well today—so—so I ordered the imperial kitchen to make a soup. The imperial doctor of the imperial hospital specially ordered , if the soup is cold, it will lose its medicinal properties, so——that's why the slaves want to rush back in such a hurry."

"Oh? Shouldn't everyone have gone to the Empress Dowager's Qinghua Palace now? Why is Defei Empress still staying in her own Chunxi Palace?" Murong Yu chuckled lightly, and her clear eyes flickered slightly.

The maid paused slightly, as if she was terribly frightened, she paused for a while and continued: "The concubine De concubine said that after drinking the soup, she would go to the Qinghua Palace to attend the banquet, so——that's why she ordered the servants to bring the soup quickly Rejuvenation Palace."

What the maid in pink seems to say is very reasonable, and there is no room for disbelief, but Xia Qingge who is standing by the side feels that things are by no means as simple as they appear on the surface. Although she was flustered just now, her skirt is not that good either Stepping on it, she sneered in her heart, it seemed that things were getting more and more interesting, and there was someone who wanted to ruin her appearance with hatred. It was really worth thinking about the reason.

"Big sister, I don't think this palace lady is lying, why don't you just let her go, I'm afraid the Empress Dowager must be anxious when she sees that she hasn't returned for a long time." When everyone was deep in thought, a soft and pleasant voice A voice came out, breaking the momentary silence.

A bright light appeared in Xia Qingge's eyes, and he turned his head to look at Xia Shuangshuang who was standing quietly behind him: "Oh? Where did the fourth sister tell that what she said was not lying?" After she finished speaking, she carefully examined Xia Shuangshuang's expression Seeing that she didn't show any other expressions except timidity, she chuckled in her heart. She had guessed that Xia Yumeng would stand up to speak, but she didn't expect that it would be Xia Shuangshuang who would stand up.

"I—I just feel that what she said is true and there is no evidence. If she lied, the lie seems to be exposed too easily. We just need to go to Qinghua Palace and ask Empress Defei face-to-face , if there is a maid named Bixin in her palace, you can tell if it is true or not. If my sister says something wrong, I hope my sister will not blame her."

Xia Qingge shook her head: "No! My sister is right." She turned her face to look at the maid who was still kneeling on the ground: "In this case, you should get up, there should be a while before the palace banquet, you should go back as soon as possible Bring a can of medicinal soup to Empress Defei, don't be so flustered on the way."

"Yes, servant girl, thank you for your generosity, servant girl, I will go back now." Bi Xin kowtowed three times to Xia Qingge, stood up just now, and after saluting to Murong Yu, Xia Yumeng, Xia Shuangshuang, and Xia Yutong, Just turned around and left.

Xia Yumeng, who was standing at the side, stepped forward and bowed to Murong Yu: "My daughter Xia Yu dreamed about the little prince."

Murong Yu glanced at Xia Yumeng lightly, and then said softly: "Miss Xia, don't be too polite."

Xia Yumeng raised her eyes lightly, looked at Murong Yu and Xia Qingge standing next to each other, her eyes were clear, and there was a faint smile on her face: "The little prince really cares about my sister, we are all girls, If there is no little prince present today, Yumeng can't imagine what kind of danger my sister will encounter just now."

Murong Yu smiled and looked down at Xia Qingge: "If she hadn't been hurt because of me, she wouldn't have been unable to avoid that pot of soup just now, so it's still my fault."

Xia Qingge cast a glance at him, and couldn't help shivering. Why does this guy like to mention this matter to people?Is it a shame to let a woman save him?

Xia Yumeng paused for a moment with the smile on her face, and then said with a deeper smile: "I don't know that the little prince is still so funny."

"It's getting late, I'm afraid the banquet has already started, let's go quickly." Xia Qingge interrupted them first, walking in front, Murong Yu looked at her back, then followed her with a chuckle and left .

Xia Yumeng, who was standing there, paused for a while after the two left, her eyes still soft, turned around and glanced at Xia Shuangshuang, who seemed to take a step back very timidly.

Xia Yumeng chuckled, and looked at Xia Yutong who was ignorant and said, "Fifth Sister, let's go."
