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

At this time, in Prince Zhan's mansion, Jun Feimo returned home and came to the pond. He lay lazily on the rattan chair by the pond, holding an exquisite fishing rod in his hand, and began to fish leisurely.

Tianyi stood silently by the side. After a while, Tianyi couldn't help but speak: "Master, Eunuch An is still waiting."

Jun Feimo narrowed his eyes slightly, without even lifting his eyelids, and simply responded indifferently: "Tell Eunuch An that I am busy with affairs today and cannot enter the palace to see my mother."

Tianyi obeyed the order and turned to leave.

He walked out of the yard, through the corridor, and came to the lobby of the palace. He saw Eunuch An pacing anxiously there, constantly standing on tiptoe to look around, hoping to see Jun Feimo.

Tianyi walked up to him and coughed lightly, attracting his attention.

Eunuch An turned his head quickly, an anxious look on his face.

Tianyi's tone was filled with helplessness and apology: "Eunuch An, I'm so sorry. Our master is handling important official business and is really unable to spare time. Please return to the palace first. When the master is free, he will come to the palace in person to pay his respects to the Queen Mother."

Hearing this reply, Eunuch An's face turned very ugly. He knew that he could not wait any longer. Finally, he could only sigh deeply, turned around in disappointment, and slowly left the palace.

Inside the Cining Palace, when Eunuch An walked in, the Empress Dowager's eyes immediately became sharp and her facial expression became serious.

The Queen Mother stared at Eunuch An and asked in a low voice, "What happened? Why did you come back alone?"

Eunuch An knelt down and bowed his head, answering: "Your Majesty, I have arrived at Prince Zhan's residence, but the prince is busy with official duties and has no time to enter the palace. The prince said that he would visit the palace in his spare time."

The Queen Mother's face darkened instantly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

"Prince Zhan is busy with official duties? I think he is just using this as an excuse to refuse my summons." The Queen Mother spoke with a reproachful tone, but she knew her son's temper well. In the end, she just waved her hand and asked Eunuch An to leave.

Then, the Queen Mother turned her gaze to Qi Simiao tenderly, "Today I wanted to take this opportunity to let you two get to know each other better, but I didn't expect him to be so unromantic. Well, I'll find another opportunity another day."

Qi Si Miao blushed slightly when she heard this. She lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. Your Highness, Prince Zhan, should put state affairs first."

The Queen Mother looked at the gentle and graceful woman in front of her, sighed softly, turned to look at the nanny beside her, and ordered: "I am also tired, you can send Miaoer out of the palace."

"Yes." Madam responded respectfully, walked to Qi Simiao, and said softly, "Miss Qi, please follow me."

Qi Simiao slowly stood up, bowed to the Queen Mother, and said softly, "I'll take my leave." Then she turned around and followed the nanny out of the palace.

As soon as he left the palace, Qi Simiao walked quickly towards his carriage.

After she got on the carriage, she leaned back in her seat with a blank look in her eyes, as if she had lost focus. The scenery outside the carriage passed by like flowing water, but nothing caught her attention.

After a while, she suddenly asked, "Mei'er, do you think Prince Zhan deliberately didn't come because he knew the reason why the Queen Mother wanted him to come to the palace? Maybe he is not really busy, but he just doesn't want to see me..." Her voice was soft, but with a hint of bitterness that was hard to detect.

Mei'er's heart tightened when she heard this. She knew very well that her young lady was infatuated with the War King, but she didn't know how to comfort her.

Qi Si Miao continued muttering to herself, "Yes, before entering the palace, Princess Heshun's people told me that Prince Zhan already had a lover, but I just didn't want to believe it... But now it seems that this may be true. But I don't understand, how could a man like Prince Zhan like a woman with a notorious reputation?" As she spoke, her eyes gradually became moist, and tears slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the handkerchief in her hand.

"Miss, don't cry!" Seeing this, Mei'er on the side hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe the tears from Qi Simiao's face, and advised her with concern: "Didn't Princess Heshun's people say that the Queen Mother dislikes her very much? So, Miss, you still have a chance." Her words were full of love and pride for Qi Simiao.

Qi Si Miao shook her head slightly and smiled bitterly: "Mei'er, you don't understand." She knew in her heart that matters of the heart were not so simple. Even if the Queen Mother did not like that woman, as long as Prince Zhan truly loved her, nothing would help.

"Mei'er, I want to meet this Murong Zixi, the legendary silly girl, and now the sweetheart of the King of War." Qi Simiao said with a firm face, with curiosity and determination flashing in her eyes.

Mei'er looked at her young lady, sighed helplessly, gently lifted the curtain, and whispered to the coachman, "Go to Dongning Street." The carriage then started slowly and drove towards the destination.

Soon after, the carriage drove smoothly into Dongning Street and finally stopped in front of a mansion.

"Miss, we're here." Mei'er reminded softly.

Qi Si Miao took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She nodded slightly.

Mei'er carefully supported Qi Simiao and slowly stepped out of the carriage.

The two stood together in front of the door of "Xiaoyao Mansion", looking up at the tightly closed door.

Qi Si Miao looked up at the three large characters "Xiaoyao Mansion" hanging above the door lintel. The characters were vigorous and powerful, revealing an uninhibited and free-spirited aura. She murmured, "Xiaoyao Mansion?"

After a brief silence, Qi Si Miao said, "Mei'er, go knock on the door."

Mei'er responded, took a few steps forward, and gently knocked on the door knocker a few times.

Soon, footsteps were heard from inside the door. Xiao Muzi opened the door and saw two people standing outside. He was stunned at first, then asked, "You guys?"

Mei'er looked at him and answered slowly, "Our young lady is the legitimate daughter of Duke Qi's mansion, Qi Si Miao. She has come to see your eldest young lady today. Please go and inform her."

After hearing this, Xiao Muzi showed a look of surprise on his face, but still nodded politely and said, "Okay, please wait a moment, I'll go in and tell them." After that, he turned around and ran hurriedly to the yard.

Qi Si Miao and Mei'er stood quietly at the door waiting.

Xiao Muzi talked to Xiao Lu for a few words, and Xiao Lu quickly came to Murong Zixi's side and whispered a few words.

"Miss, why did the young lady from Duke Qi's mansion come to our house?"

"Who knows? You'll know when you see her. Xiao Cui, go and prepare some tea and snacks."

Xiao Cui responded and left.

At the same time, Xiao Muzi hurried back again and said to Qi Si Miao and others, "Miss, please come in."
