Reborn Daughter: The Young Lady Wants to Make a Trouble

After Li Xueyue finished her meal, it was time for her morning bath. Unexpectedly, Xu Jiaqi was more patient this time.

"Well, it's okay." Li Xueyue suddenly said when she saw Xu Jiaqi walking into the room with hot water. She suddenly felt uncomfortable and touched her mouth.

She attributed this to Xu Jiaqi's irritable face and disgusting behavior.

"I want to take a bath." Li Xueyue said. She could almost feel the irritability emanating from Xu Jiaqi. Now this palace maid could burn through the ground.

"But, Princess, I brought this water specially—"

Li Xueyue and Xu Jiaqi passed each other without saying anything else. They walked out of the manor in small steps, and the servants quickly followed.

She refused to be scalded by boiling water again.

Li Xueyue knew that no matter how much this naughty woman was disciplined, she could not get rid of her bad temper. She twisted her chin and saw Xu Jiaqi following a group of servants pitifully.

Soon, they arrived at the front door. It opened for her, and the familiar steam gushed out from it.

There was a woodsy scent in the air. It smelled like a forest the day after the rain. The scent was quite musky... enough to give her the same urge to throw up her breakfast.

Li Xueyue didn't know why, but she suppressed this feeling and tried to focus on other things.

"Princess, please let me check the temperature." A maid said softly.

Li Xueyue nodded and closed the door behind her.

"Well, Princess, the water is a little colder than usual. If you don't mind, we'll have to adjust the temperature," the same maid replied.

"very good."

Li Xueyue hugged her body and looked around curiously, wondering how this system worked. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the maids were all gathered around a long and thick rope.

It takes more than one person to organize it all.

She looked on in amazement as a crack suddenly appeared in the wall, revealing a square. Water gushed out from it, steaming and carrying strands of water.

But out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xu Jiaqi holding a woven basket.

"What are you doing?" Li Xueyue asked when she saw Xu Jiaqi spilling something into the water.

Without any warning, she suddenly became furious and wanted to snatch the basket from Xu Jiaqi's hand and check it herself.

But then Li Xueyue blinked and returned to normal.

"Princess, this is lavender, which is said to relieve stress and tension." Xu Jiaqi explained patiently, and then held up the beautiful purple flower. After a while, she put it into the water.

"In addition, this is mint picked from the imperial garden. It has a calming and cooling effect." Xu Jiaqi picked up fresh green mint leaves from the basket.

Li Xueyue felt that her worries were unnecessary, but she reached into the woven basket anyway and found three glass bottles.

"This is lavender essential oil, used for scent." Xu Jiaqi said shyly as she unscrewed the bottle cap, with a smile on her face. How uneducated was the princess that she didn't even know what was in the bottle?

"It's peppermint oil, princess."

Li Xueyue frowned, she always felt that something was wrong...what was it?

"Ah, how could I forget?" Xu Jiaqi perked up and reached into the basket, "In the gift, there is a rare oil that is not available in our country."

Li Xueyue raised her eyebrows. She was curious because Yuzhen didn't reveal the gift. Well, she didn't ask, jewelry and silk never interested her.

"This is a unique blend of jasmine and rosemary oils. It's very hard to obtain, as even the slightest mistake in temperature during the production process can ruin this fine bath oil, princess."

Li Xueyue took a look at the bottle. The shape of the bottle was exactly the same as Han Jian's. It was probably influenced by Nanhui. After all, Nanhui and Han Jian are very close.

She took the bottle handed to her by Xu Jiaqi and opened the cap. Suddenly, a sweet fragrance came to her nose, with the warm scent of oak.

Li Xueyue resisted the urge to vomit. The smell was wonderful, but she didn't feel well. She pushed the feeling aside. Maybe it was something she had eaten this morning. Maybe the food had really been tampered with.

"Peppermint oil and lavender oil are used to soothe the skin, and this oil can cleanse the skin. Your Highness, isn't it interesting?" Xu Jiaqi said chatteringly.

Li Xueyue nodded silently and watched Xu Jiaqi pour the first two bottles into the water. The fragrance filled her nose, tempting her to go into the water as well.

She put her hand in the pool and tested the water temperature. "It's just right," she whispered.

Li Xueyue saw several maids wiping their brows, shrugging their shoulders lightly, and heaved a sigh of relief. Adjusting the water was extremely difficult for them...

The servants did not dare to protest. They lowered their heads and were grateful for the rare free time, because the distance prevented them from enjoying the fragrant scent to their heart's content.

However, they all looked on with some curiosity, wondering if there was any difference between the training Miss Xu Jiaqi received and the training the other maids received.

It is not easy to become a servant in the palace, and the selection process is very strict.

Every three months, thousands of commoners participate in the selection, and only a very few are finally chosen. Only the most beautiful commoners are considered, and beyond that, there are more challenging tests to measure their worth and ability.

"Don't you think it's unfair that Xu Jiaqi was punished with more training?" A maid whispered, "If it was an ordinary maid who angered the prince, she would have been beaten to a pulp and kicked out of the palace."

"Well, Miss Xu Jiaqi is a palace maid and the queen's person. I think the eunuchs are relatively tolerant of her."

"Hush!" an older maid hissed. "If Madam Xu hears this, she'll tell on us."

The maids muttered a few words and then shut their mouths helplessly.
