Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 172

Chapter 172 Kindly Reminder
Yun Xiao had also come in for a while. Hearing the prince’s words, she felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at the door from time to time and thought to herself, “I wonder if Rong Jin will use his real body for today’s banquet?” Country of Xiyue, Prince hasn’t seen anyone for so long, have you gone to see Rong Jin?

Thinking of Rong Jin, Yunxiao remembered that before she entered the palace, she had clearly met Rong Jin in the carriage. Unfortunately, Rong Jin boasted that he was smart, but he did not find any traces of her. This was truly unpleasant.

Yun Xiao’s thoughts flew, and the tea in her hand couldn’t be controlled for a moment. The tea in the cup overflowed. At this moment, she happened to hear Concubine Hua’s words.

She lowered her head and saw that the tea had flowed onto Zhou Jingyan’s clothes. Zhou Jingyan only looked at her and did not warn her.

Yun Xiao’s face was slightly red, not ashamed, but excited! She immediately lowered her eyebrows to conceal her smile, “Third Highness, are you alright?” As she spoke, she took a handkerchief to wipe the tea on the table. However, Yun Xiao wiped it very skillfully. She wiped all the tea in the direction of Zhou Jingyan. The water around the handkerchief splashed onto Zhou Jingyan’s body.

Zhou Jingyan’s eyes narrowed dangerously. He wished he could pinch Yun Xiao’s neck, but looking at Yun Xiao’s smiling eyes, he pinched this thought down again. “You did it on purpose!”

It was certain, not questionable. Obviously, this was accusing Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao nodded seriously, the corner of her mouth smiling, “I did it on purpose.”

Zhou Jingyan’s face was ashen. He had never seen such a bold woman before. If it was someone else, they would have apologized long ago, kowtowed and admitted their mistake. They didn’t mean to say a few words, but Yun Xiao openly admitted that she was doing it on purpose. He didn’t know how to deal with this bold woman for a moment.

However, Zhou Jingyan’s mansion was quite deep, so he only chuckled and said, “It’s better to do it on purpose.”

Yun Xiao was stunned. She never expected Zhou Jingyan’s response to be like this. She looked blankly at Zhou Jingyan, but seeing the flash of killing intent in his eyes, Yun Xiao was not afraid. She was puzzled in her heart. Zhou Jingyan must have thought of a good idea to punish her.

Just as Yun Xiao thought of this floor, she heard Zhou Jingyan say, “Wait for me to change my clothes later.”

Yun Xiao’s face turned red from rubbing. She was not his real maidservant. She could serve him to change clothes and her expression was angry. However, Yun Xiao quickly smiled and said respectfully, “Yes!” Since you want me to change clothes, then change. However, it has nothing to do with me if I’m not satisfied.

The corners of Yun Xiao’s mouth curled into a smile, her gaze carrying a faint smile. The corners of her mouth hooked slightly as she placed the teapot in her hand on the table and stood at one side.

Although she stood still, her eyes turned back and forth, looking at the amusement of the imperial concubines on the throne.

“Why is Imperial Concubine Hua so anxious? Emperor has already sent someone to Country of Xiyue, Prince. Is Imperial Concubine Hua so anxious? Is she trying to say that Emperor is not doing a good job?” The Empress smeared Dan Kou’s long fingernails and the corner of her mouth curled upwards, “Why is Imperial Concubine Hua so anxious?”

Imperial Concubine Hua’s eyes darkened, and she still smiled cunningly and said, “That’s not what I meant. Isn’t the Empress saying something like this about the Emperor?”

The Empress snorted coldly. What else to say, The Jin Emperor had already said, “Don’t say anything else. Don’t let outsiders see a joke at a banquet like this today.” Outsiders naturally said that the messenger of the West Vietnamese. However, seeing that the Crown Prince and proton of the West Vietnamese hadn’t come, the Jin Emperor’s expression became somewhat unhappy. He stood up for a big pigeon in the Eastern Jin Dynasty at noon today. Could it be that he was playing with the people of the Eastern Jin the Eastern Jin Dynasty again?

Seeing the Jin Emperor’s gloomy expression, everyone was able to guess. Everyone lowered their heads, saving themselves from being the outsider.

The hall was completely silent. Xian Fei looked at Jin Huang, Hua Fei, and the others, and a strange light flashed in her eyes. “What incense did Imperial Concubine Hua use today? She looks younger.”

The implication was that she was the same as them. She was old, but she was dressed younger today.

Imperial Concubine Hua was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. She looked at the bunch of imperial concubines beside the Emperor. These people had all been spoiled before, but even though they were well maintained, they were still unable to withstand the traces left behind by the years. Her face had passed away, and her favor was no longer there.

He was reminding himself not to be so arrogant! However, Hua Fei smiled sweetly. She didn’t care about the old Jin Emperor. She secretly sized up the man who had been drinking tea. Seeing that Yun Xiao had deliberately placed the tea on Zhou Jingyan, Hua Fei couldn’t wait to rush up and slap Yun Xiao.

However, she had to endure it now! “I didn’t use any incense, but someone gave me a prescription for bathing. It’s not bad. It’s getting more and more into His Majesty’s eyes.”

“What recipe is so good? Show us?” The other imperial concubine couldn’t help but ask. If such a good recipe was used, she might be able to exchange it for some of His Majesty’s favor.

Imperial Concubine Hua looked at the person who spoke with an idiotic gaze, “This is an ancestral prescription from someone else’s family, how can I casually reveal it to others?”

This is fiercely slapping those concubines in the face. She seems to be saying, Look, the ancestral recipe, you would rather give it to me than to you. So what if your status is noble? Didn’t he hurry up and curry favor with me?

The Empress looked at Hua Fei with a smile and a complacent face, and her heart was filled with anger. She wished she could catch the person who gave Hua Fei the prescription and beat him up.

Yun Xiao listened to the chatting words coming from the front. The hall was completely silent. Just as she could hear those concubines’ words clearly, the corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth curled up slightly.

Since Imperial Concubine Hua is willing to cover that prescription with her own hands, then just cover it. One day, she will get her revenge.

Right at this moment, he heard a shout from outside, “His Highness the Crown Prince of West Vietnam is here! The First Prince is here!”

The so-called First Prince was Xi Yue’s protector in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Rong Jin.

After this voice fell, two people entered the palace.

One of them was dressed in a moonlight white robe with dark patterns embroidered with magnolia flowers on his sleeves. He was slender and had a face like jade. He was gentle and refined. There was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and his long black hair was tied gently with a two-inch long silk belt.

The other person was dressed in a black brocade robe embroidered with golden silk thread. The eagle spread its wings and flew high as if it were alive. Its red eyes seemed to be staring at everyone in the palace.

The man wore a noble ebony mask. The mask emitted a faint flowing light. A pair of unruly phoenix eyes were deep and without ripples. His hair was tied up and a strand of hair floated onto the ebony mask, dispelling a faint coldness.

Ever since the two of them entered, Yun Xiao’s eyes couldn’t turn anywhere else, and she couldn’t help but be attracted by the two of them.

One was as gentle as jade, the other was indifferent and aloof. Standing together, they were strangely harmonious, so that life did not reveal any colors.

However, what puzzled Yun Xiao was that the gazes of the two of them were fixed on her at this moment. There was a faint inquiry in their gazes. After exploring, there was also a trace of relief and relaxation. Yun Xiao did not know why the two of them had such expressions.

It was reasonable to say that Rong Jin was looking for him, so he rashly saw him and revealed such a relaxed expression. But now, the Crown Prince of West Vietnam was looking at him with a cannibalistic gaze. What was the meaning of this? Yun Xiao did not remember what intersection she had with the Crown Prince of West Vietnam.

Yun Xiao immediately thought about everything in her previous life and finally came to the conclusion that she did not know Country of Xiyue of Prince.

However, just as Yun Xiao was about to divert her gaze from Country of Xiyue Prince, she suddenly noticed that the pair of eyes under the ebony mask were somewhat familiar.

Surprised, Yun Xiao continued to stare at the pair of phoenix eyes. Compared to Rong Jin’s, the shape of her eyes was strangely similar. However, Rong Jin’s eyes were endlessly dark. As for the man’s gaze, it was also black. However, there was a wisp of amber in the deepest part of his eyes.

Yun Xiao’s heart trembled. She blinked her eyes and heard someone shouting, “Four Clouds.”

Yun Xiao did not react for a moment. She was calling out to herself. It was only when she felt a trace of displeasure in her eyes that she finally noticed that the four clouds were calling out to her. Yun Xiao curled her lips. This name made people feel cold.

Yun Xiao lowered her head and saw that Zhou Jingyan was looking at her with puzzlement and inquiry in her eyes. She immediately lowered her eyebrows and said softly, “Third Highness, please give me instructions.”

“Pour tea!” Zhou Jingyan did not know why, but he hated Yun Xiao in his heart. However, when he saw Yun Xiao looking at the two of them infatuatedly, a faint sense of ease arose in his heart. He always felt as if it was his own things, but someone else had snatched them away.

Yun Xiao curled her lips. The teapot was right beside you, so she wouldn’t pour it herself. Although Yun Xiao thought so, she still obediently picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea. However, when she was pouring tea, Yun Xiao’s gaze turned around. She suddenly wanted to give Zhou Jingyan medicine. What should she do?

Yun Xiao thought so, so she did the same. As she poured the tea, she lightly moved her finger against the teapot. Then, some medicinal powder quietly entered the teacup. As it floated in the teacup, it merged into the tea. “Third Highness, please drink tea!”

Yun Xiao’s expression did not change as she withdrew her hand. She heard two magnetic and pleasant voices not far away, “Greetings, Emperor Jin!”

Yun Xiao raised her head and met a pair of dark and bottomless eyes. Rong Jin blinked at Yun Xiao and looked at the teacup in front of Zhou Jingyan with a low brow.

The meaning was self-evident. Yun Xiao’s face turned red from rubbing. She thought that what she did was very secret, but she didn’t expect that she hadn’t escaped his eyes.

What made Yun Xiao curious was Rong Jin’s attitude. Was he reminding himself?

Before he could figure it out, he met his other pair of eyes and heard the voice of the Jin Emperor clearly, “Crown Prince and First Prince, lean down.” After the Jin Emperor finished speaking, he said, “Give me a seat!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Xiao saw the two of them walking over at the same time.
