Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

After a while, Xiaolu gently pushed open the door, holding a plate of fragrant vegetarian food steadily in her hands.

The vegetarian meal looked simple, but it was a vegetarian delicacy carefully prepared by the temple. She placed the meal on the table.

Murong Zixi walked over and sat down, waved to Xiaolu and Xiaocui, "Xiaocui, you and Xiaolu sit down and eat together." Murong Zixi's voice revealed a hint of fatigue. She raised her eyes slightly and looked at Xiaocui and Xiaolu standing beside her.

Seeing this, Xiao Cui waved her hands hastily, "Miss, you eat first. How can we, the servants, sit with you?"

Murong Zixi's eyes flashed and she glared at Xiao Cui, her tone firm and unquestionable, "Stop talking nonsense, sit down and eat together." Although her voice was not loud, every word was like a hammer, hitting Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu's hearts.

Xiaocui and Xiaolu looked at each other, and hesitation and struggle were revealed in each other's eyes. But in the end, they still moved slowly, walked over, and sat down carefully. Their bodies were tense, as if they were sitting on pins and needles, and their faces were full of restraint and uneasiness.

Murong Zixi saw it all, but said nothing. She picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of green vegetable, and gently put it into her mouth.

The vegetables were crisp and delicious, with a hint of sweetness, but her heart seemed to be blocked by something, and she had no taste for them. She took a few bites and put down her bowl and chopsticks.

"Miss, these are the only vegetarian dishes in this temple. If you eat so little, is it not to your liking?" Xiao Cui asked worriedly when she saw Murong Zixi put down her bowl and chopsticks.

Murong Zixi shook her head, indicating that she didn't need to worry, "You guys eat, I don't have much appetite, I feel a little tired, I want to rest for a while."

Murong Zixi looked at the worried expressions of the two girls and felt warm in her heart, "I'm fine, I'm just very tired after sitting in the carriage for a long time. I'll take a nap, don't disturb me."

"Oh! Okay." Xiao Cui immediately stood up and gave Xiao Lu a look. The two maids cleaned up the food on the table, took it out, closed the door, and the two of them ate in the yard.

Murong Zixi walked to the bedside. Although her steps were light, they seemed to carry a heavy weight. She took off her shoes, as if she had taken off all her defenses. She fell directly onto the soft bed as if all her strength had been drained away.

Murong Zixi closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil. However, the exhaustion that surged from deep within her body was like an irresistible tide.

Murong Zixi controlled her mind, stretched out her hand, and a box suddenly appeared in her hand.

She sat up and opened the box. The silver needle was flashing a dazzling cold light. Murong Zixi's fingers gently brushed over it. She took a deep breath and gently inserted the silver needle into the acupuncture point of her body.

As the silver needle pierced into her body, a warm current began to flow through her body. The warm current was like the spring sunshine, warm and gentle.

After the needle is closed, the silver needle is retracted into the space.

Murong Zixi also lay down and closed her eyes. Gradually, her breathing became steady and deep.

At dusk, the sky was dyed with a faint red glow, as if laying a gorgeous curtain for the coming night.

In the courtyard of the temple, Murong Baixue and Murong Jiaoning walked side by side, and their footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet air.

"What are you two doing waiting outside? Where's my elder sister?" Murong Jiaoning's voice was sharp and piercing, breaking the moment of silence.

The maids, Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu, hurriedly bowed. Xiao Cui said, "Second Miss, Third Miss, the eldest lady is resting."

Murong Baixue looked up at the sky. The blood-red setting sun reflected on her fair face, making her look particularly beautiful. "Rest? It's still early. Sister fell asleep so early?" There was a hint of doubt in her voice.

Murong Jiaoning snorted coldly, a disdainful smile appearing on the corner of her mouth, "Sister, you are really weak. We came to the temple to pray for our grandmother, not to have fun. But sister, you have never come out of your room since you came to the temple." There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone, and she was obviously quite dissatisfied with Murong Zixi's behavior.

Xiao Lu felt a little indignant when she heard this, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Miss San, aren't we going to pray for blessings tomorrow? Miss is feeling a little unwell..."

Before she finished her words, Murong Jiaoning had already slapped him, and the crisp sound echoed in the courtyard.

Seeing this, Xiao Cui hurriedly supported Xiao Lu. A trace of anger flashed in her eyes. She looked directly at Murong Jiao Ning and asked, "Why did the Third Miss hit someone?"

Murong Jiaoning sneered, her tone full of contempt, "Ha! She's just a lowly maid, so what if I beat her?"

At this moment, the door slowly opened, and Murong Zixi yawned and walked out. Her face was beautiful, but her eyes were a bit sharp.

Seeing Murong Jiaoning bullying her maid, she frowned slightly and said in a cold voice, "Murong Jiaoning, you really don't learn your lesson. Do you think you can beat my people?"

Murong Jiaoning's body stiffened and she subconsciously hid behind Murong Baixue.

Seeing this, Murong Baixue hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Big sister, the scenery behind the temple is beautiful. My third sister and I came here specially to invite you to watch the sunset together."

However, Murong Zixi seemed unmoved. She walked down slowly, approached Murong Jiaoning step by step, and reached out to grab her collar.

Murong Jiaoning was overwhelmed by Murong Zixi's momentum and felt a little flustered. "What are you doing? Let go!" There was a tremor in her voice.

A hint of coldness flashed across Murong Zixi's eyes, "Hit my people? Huh?" Her tone was full of threats, causing Murong Jiaoning to shiver involuntarily.

Murong Baixue said softly, "Don't be angry, elder sister. Third sister, you are the same. You are too impulsive. Apologize!"

"I, I..." Murong Jiaoning's face turned red and she couldn't say anything for a long time.

"Snapped!"

"Ah... Sister, you hit me again?" Murong Jiaoning covered her face with red eyes.

"Who told you not to learn your lesson? If you touch my people again, I will break your hands!"

Murong Jiaoning looked at Murong Baixue, "Second sister?"

Murong Baixue frowned, "Okay, it's true that the third sister shouldn't have done that. You also hit the third sister, eldest sister. It's just a small matter. Let's just let it go and don't hurt the harmony between the sisters."

Murong Zixi ignored Murong Baixue's words and turned to Xiao Cui and said, "Go get some cold water and give Xiao Lu a cold compress."

"Yes, Miss." Xiao Cui helped Xiao Lu into the house.

Murong Jiaoning gnashed her teeth in hatred, her eyes were red, she lowered her head, and was very angry. She was just a fool. She had always tried to please herself. It had only been a few days, and this was the second time she was beaten. And both times she was beaten for this slut, damn it! She had to teach her a lesson and make it impossible for her to turn over. So what if she was a legitimate daughter? But she was not favored because she had no mother.

Murong Jiaoning secretly vowed to teach Murong Zixi a lesson and ruin her completely.
