Xu Baiwei talked to her mother for a while, and then Zhou Hui was called away by the other officials' wives.

As a young lady who had yet to leave the pavilion, Xu Baiwei naturally couldn't hang out with the ladies. Thus, she became alone in an instant.

At this time, Xu Zixuan seized the opportunity and hurried over.

Xu Baiwei didn't say anything, and the two of them sat down in the pavilion.

At this time, Xu Zixuan passionately called for a maid not too far away to pour them some tea.

The maidservant walked over and poured two cups of cold tea each. When she was pouring tea for Xu Baiwei, she stealthily avoided everyone and pressed a piece of paper into Xu Baiwei's hand.

Xu Baiwei raised her eyebrows and glanced at the maidservant. He recognized Qin Yi Long's servant, and smiled lightly.

She said nothing and took the note.

Then Xu Zixuan pushed the cold tea in front of Xu Baiwei and said affectionately, "Elder sister, quickly drink some tea and go to the summer heat."

"Sure." Xu Baiwei said with a smile, but she suddenly paused when she picked up her teacup, as if she was hesitating over something.

She suddenly moved closer to Xu Zixuan and carefully asked, "Little sister, look at that maid from before, she …"

Xu Baiwei stopped midway, causing Xu Zixuan's heart to tighten. She thought that something was wrong. Thus, he subconsciously looked back at the maidservant.

"What happened to her?"

Xu Baiwei took advantage of this time to quickly change the teacup in her hand and the cup in front of Xu Zixuan. After that, he picked up the teacup again. His voice had already returned to a calm state. "She's a bit good-looking, isn't she?"

As she spoke, Xu Baiwei revealed a sour expression on her face. "I remember her. She was one of Yi Long's personal maids …"

"Could it be that elder sister is jealous?" Xu Zixuan understood.

While cursing Xu Baiwei in her heart for being suspicious of others, she put on a smile. "Big sister, don't worry. How could the Fifth Prince possibly fancy a beauty like you?"

With that, she urged Xu Baiwei again, "Don't worry too much about this kind of thing, otherwise, you'll get wrinkles … Elder sister should drink a cup of tea to quell her anger. "

"... You're right. " Xu Baiwei sighed, and under Xu Zixuan's nervous gaze, she lightly sipped her tea and swallowed it.

Thus, Xu Zixuan's expression relaxed a lot. At the same time, she mocked Xu Baiwei's stupidity as she proudly drank a mouthful of her own tea.

After a while, Xu Baiwei couldn't sit still anymore, looking a little nervous.

"I feel a little dizzy …" She reached out her hand to cover her forehead as she spoke softly.

Xu Zixuan laughed inwardly, but maintained a concerned expression: "Did I get heatstroke? "How about Big Sis rest in the room for a while?"

"That's fine," Xu Baiwei nodded, but then changed her tone as if she had thought of something, "Forget it, I'll just sit here alone for a while, it might be fine after a while." "Sister, you should return to your mother's side first. Don't let her worry about you if she can't find us …"

Xu Zixuan knew that Xu Baiwei had received the slip of paper that the maidservant had given her earlier, so she had put it aside for herself. Thus, she didn't reject it.

He pretended to care and left Xu Baiwei alone without any hesitation.

Once they were out of sight, Xu Zixuan found the maid from before. She called her over and asked, "Did you put in the thing that I told you to put in there?"

"Yes, I did," the maid replied respectfully. "I put aphrodisiac in the tea. It wasn't a very large medicine, but it would make one's entire body feel weak. Furthermore, it would take a while before it would be completely effective... This way, when the incident happens, no one will be able to investigate it and no one will be able to suspect the young miss. "

"Moreover, the tramp servant that the fifth prince had his servants find has already arranged for him to be allowed to enter while no one else was looking."

"What about the slip of paper you pressed into her hand? If she took it out and said that the Fifth Prince had arranged for her to meet him here, wouldn't that mean that he wouldn't be able to slander her for having an affair with others? "

"Please rest assured Miss," the maidservant hurriedly explained, "The words on the slip of paper are fake, even if you let others see it, nothing will happen to you. [I have already told him to destroy the evidence and the evidence after he is done enjoying himself …] No one will find out! "

"That's good." Xu Zixuan nodded in satisfaction.

Then, perhaps because the weather was too hot, she felt that the heat in her body was rising, causing her to feel rather irritated.

Looking at the coquettish face of the maid in front of him, he suddenly thought of the jealous words Xu Baiwei had said earlier. He immediately felt suspicious.

With a thought, she commanded, "Lift your head up."

The maidservant didn't understand, but she obediently raised her head. However, the moment she lifted her head up, she was suddenly grabbed by Xu Zixuan. Afterwards, Xu Zixuan took out a hairpin from her hair and used its sharp tip to ruthlessly cut the maid's face — —

The maid opened her mouth wanting to scream, but her mouth was quickly blocked by Xu Zixuan. Her hand did not stop moving until the maid's face was completely painted with a mess. Only then did she ruthlessly throw the other party onto the ground.

"I want to see what methods you can use to seduce the Fifth Prince." Xu Zixuan said fiercely.

She then laughed heartily under the fearful and mournful gaze of the maidservants.
