Chapter 85: No! It’s a game!

Liu Ye's voice trembled. Even though no one could see her, she knew she must be in a panic at the moment.

What could make Liu Ye so panic?

Who are you talking to again?

"How could it be discovered? That thing is hidden in the jade. As long as it is not broken, no one will notice it. It is not something that will cause an immediate attack."

Xue Wuyang's voice!

Hidden in jade?

That white jade cup!

No wonder Liu Ye was so nervous and angry, it turned out that she was afraid of being discovered.

What are the things that won’t happen immediately?

"But...Miss, can you really believe what the sorcerer said? I always feel something is strange."

"Why not? I saw it in the temple of Our Lady. How can you not believe something you saw with your own eyes?"

Our Lady Temple?

It seems that a lot of things happened when she rushed to rescue Tuan'er that day.

"Alright, alright, shut up from now on. The prince will be back soon. This is my only chance. If you make any mistakes, I won't forgive you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the door being opened.

Xia Zheng moved further inward and waited for a moment. When she heard no more movement, she went around the back wall to the front of the door and looked inside through the open door. There was nothing there.

The only chance Xue Wuyang mentioned was tonight. Was the white jade cup for Wei Qingqing and her?

With doubts in her mind, Xia Zheng returned to the banquet again.

When she entered the room, Xue Wuyang was already on the bridge platform directing the people below to make final arrangements, and it seemed that she didn't notice Xia Zheng at all.

But Xia Zheng did not miss the sight of Xue Wuyang's eyes passing over her and then quickly moving away when she entered the door, which made her even more certain that the white jade cup belonged to her.

"What took you so long?" Chunzhi came over and took her hand, leading her inside. "Today's dishes are plentiful and delicious. The feast will begin soon. Let's each have a chicken drumstick."

Seeing that she was so good at making arrangements, Xia Zheng smiled and let her pull her to sit in front of the honey-roasted chicken. Facing her determined look, she nodded to show that she understood. She would definitely give one to each of them and live up to her expectations.

Only then did Chunzhi sit down peacefully, watching the dishes come up one by one, and waiting for the last dish to be served before she could start eating.

Xia Zheng was also waiting to see when the white jade cup would come up.

Even after the last dish was placed on the table, there was still no sign of the white jade bowl.

Did Xue Wuyang stop?

"A sparrow pretending to be a phoenix is ​​just a facade, and yet it makes such a fuss about it that others are afraid that others don't know it's happening in Chaohui Courtyard." Just as he was wondering, Wei Qingqing's voice came from far away.

The three people at Xia Zheng's table immediately stood up and bowed. Wei Qingqing, who was still dressed in red, didn't even bother to glance at them. She just walked past them and sat down at the round table in front.

She glanced at Xue Wuyang who was walking over and snorted coldly: "Being a housekeeper, you really think you are so proud of yourself. You still have to wait for me to come before serving the last dish."

"Then you should eat more." Xue Wuyang didn't confront him directly.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as they were afraid that the two ancestors would use fire sticks to light the cannon and cause it to explode with a crackling sound.

Some people think that Xue Wuyang is still considering the overall situation. Today is a day and she is in charge, so she just endured it.

Some people also thought that Xue Wuyang was scared by the beating Wei Qingqing had done before, and was afraid that if there was a disagreement, she would be beaten again at the end of the year, which would make the new year unpleasant.

Wei Qingqing naturally believed the latter, and looked up proudly at the maid carrying the white jade cup.

There are five cups in total, that is, one cup for each of the concubines on both sides and the three concubines.

They all look the same, could they be hiding something?

If not, how can we tell the difference?

As the maid approached, Xia Zheng recognized that the person sitting at their table was the maid who had been scolded by Liu Ye before.

Open the lid of the jade cup and place it in front of each person one by one.

Xia Zheng and Chunzhi were close to each other, and when the soup bowl passed by her, she had a keen sense of smell and could immediately smell the sweet floral fragrance and milk in it. When it was placed on the table and she saw the red inside the white, she realized it was blood swallows stewed with milk and fresh flowers.

It is indeed a good thing that they can't see on weekdays.

Aunt Huan's was also put down, exactly the same.

It was Xia Zheng's turn. As soon as she opened the lid, she smelled a different scent.

It was very faint, almost covered by the fragrance of the flowers, but because she had smelled it before, she could immediately distinguish it even if it was very subtle.

It was the smell on Tao Yurong when they were in the side room of the Holy Mother Temple.

Xue Wuyang said she saw it at the Holy Mother Temple. Could it be...

"ah!"

Just when Xia Zheng was about to connect the two things, a scream exploded in her ears, and before she could turn around, the white jade soup bowl fell on her legs.

The milk and blood swallows in it all spilled onto her skirt. Fortunately, the weather was cold and the milk was just warm enough not to burn her mouth, so it did not burn Xia Zheng.

Before anyone could react, Xue Wuyang rushed over almost instantly and grabbed the soup bowl from Xia Zheng's legs.

Seeing everyone looking at her, she raised her voice and sternly said, "What do you do for a living? You can't even hold a cup steady! Can you afford to pay for the damage to her stomach?"

The maid was so frightened that she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"It's all wet. Go change your clothes quickly. The weather is too cold. It will be troublesome if you catch a cold." Chunzhi urged worriedly while she used her hands to remove the blood swallow on Xia Zheng's body.

Xue Wuyang held the white jade cup in both hands, her expression uncontrollably looking a little ugly.

I wanted to hold Xia Zheng back, but there was no way to force her to stay in this situation.

"Good things won't be appreciated by lowly people, so it's better to throw them away so they don't end up in the mouths of the poor, making them look like some kind of vermicelli from a street vendor."

While Wei Qingqing was mocking, she used a spoon to scoop up the milk blood swallow. It was white with red, and a petal fell right on the red, like a butterfly, and flew into the red lips. Everything looked elegant.

It was also a silent mockery of Xia Zheng and the others who were born in a lowly family. Even if they ate the same thing, it was just like a wild boar eating bran, and they couldn't understand the taste.

After she said this, Aunt Huan had no intention of taking the spoon, and Chunzhi was too embarrassed to take it.

Seeing Wei Qingqing take another bite, Xue Wuyang's eyes moved, and she said to Xia Zheng, "Go change your clothes, don't catch a cold."

It seems that the main target is still Wei Qingqing.

The coldness from the skirt gradually spread into her body. Xia Zheng was afraid of catching a cold at this time, so she didn't care about anything else and went to the room in the side yard.

He took off his clothes that were beginning to freeze, and while letting the frost and snow change his clothes for him, he recalled his thoughts that had been interrupted earlier.

The white jade cup, the Holy Mother Temple, the wandering sorcerer, what had Xue Wuyang seen that made him so determined to take this step? The fragrance of Tao Yurong in the jade cup...

not good!

It’s a game!

"Don't wear it anymore, hurry up! Go and tell Concubine Wei to stop..."

Before he could finish his words, it suddenly became noisy outside.

Amidst the chaos, Xia Zheng heard words like concubine and young lady.

He quickly put on his cloak and opened the door, and the sound became clearer.

"Miss! Quick! Quick! Call the doctor!"

"No! We need a midwife! Go find a midwife."

"Quick! Send someone to the palace to report to the Crown Prince's wife!"
