Strangely, Chu Yixuan looked at Xu Rouzhi silently, but did not say anything, nor did he respond.
The burn on Xu Rouzhi's chest and abdomen was so painful that she almost couldn't endure it anymore, but she still pretended that nothing had happened and turned towards Bi Su: "Bi Su, go back inside the house! I have to go back and change into thicker clothes. "
Bi Su couldn't wait to leave this battlefield like place, so she hurried over to support Xu Rouzhi. "Yes, Royal Consort!"
Xu Rouzhi slanted her words at Su Leyao: "All these years, you have suppressed my usages, I will not recover it back with you! It's freezing cold right now. When I go back to my room, I want to see the stove that should be lit up in there.
What? Xu Rouzhi actually dared to ask her for the wintertime usage of it!
Su Leyao could not believe her own eyes and ears!
Seeing Xu Rouzhi bringing Bi Su to the backyard, Su Leyao was furious and anxious. She stomped her feet and returned to the middle of the hall, and said angrily: "Your highness, you have seen how arrogant that slut is, why did you not do anything to her?"
Chu Yixuan frowned, "Didn't you treat her already? But did you manage to cure her? "
Su Leyao was at a loss for words!
That's right! All these years, Chu Yixuan had never interfered with how she treated him. It could be said that, all these years, he had gained the upper hand!
But, the method to deal with Xu Rouzhi had always been effective, why did it suddenly become ineffective today?
"My prince," Su Leyao said dejectedly, "If that slut carries out Xu Chang as her backer, we would not dare to touch her!"
"The one she carried out wasn't Xu Chang," Chu Yixuan said lightly. "The one she brought out was from the Eastern Palace."
"That's right!" Su Leyao was even more dejected now, "Then wouldn't that mean that we can only let her act mighty in the future?"
"Then let's see how she does it." Chu Yixuan didn't think much of it as he rotated the teacup. This woman had finally revealed her true face! It looks like his decision to let Su Leyao torture her for all these years was correct.
As long as they could prove that Xu Chang still cared about this concubine, it meant that she could be a chess piece between Xu Chang and the Eastern Palace.
The Eastern Palace wanted to spy on him?
Chu Yixuan lifted his cold and handsome face. His complexion was somewhat pale, and his dense cold eyes were filled with a chilliness that would cause people to tremble. But soon, those lips that were tightly pursed opened up, and those eyes that were as sharp as knives dimmed down once again.
He blew lightly on his tea, and the mist quietly dissipated, slowly gathering together again. The figure in the tea mist was still as cold as ever, an indescribable coldness.
Finally returning to her own room, Xu Rouzhi closed the door and leaned on it. Bi Su asked anxiously, "Just now, Mrs. Su had used boiling water to heat up Princess Huo Wu, I'm sure she was burned badly, is her injury serious?"
"I'm fine." "Bi Su, mash this lotus leaf into juice and mix it with some scented oil. Then find me a clean piece of white gauze, it's fine even if it's a white cloth, I want to use it."
Bi Su was startled, she did not understand what Xu Rouzhi meant, but she quickly followed her instructions. She then brought the mixture of the lotus leaf juice and a roll of white cloth to Xu Rouzhi and said softly, "Princess, it's done!"
"Well, thank you!" As Xu Rouzhi said that, she quickly took off his clothes and spread the lotus leaf juice evenly on her scalded wounds. Then, she covered them with a white cloth, "Come, Bi Su, help me."
Xu Rouzhi's white and smooth chest and abdomen were heavily burned and red, causing Bi Su to be dumbstruck. Hearing Xu Rouzhi call for her to help, Bi Su felt like she just woke up from a dream. She spun in a hurry a few rounds and wrapped the white cloth around Xu Rouzhi.
"Madam, you're so ruthless. You actually used boiling water to splash some on my wife. Fortunately, I didn't pour it on her face. If I had, I wouldn't have poured it on her face …" Bi Su tidied up Xu Rouzhi's clothes, and her voice was low, full of sadness.
Xu Rouzhi comforted her: "Don't worry, no matter what she has done to me, there will be a day when I will make her repay double."
Bi Su was startled, she raised her head and looked at Xu Rouzhi, — Royal Concubine's eyes were firm, but also unfamiliar. Had she changed her mind after this incident?
"Then, what are Princess Hua-Yang's plans?" Bi Su asked softly.
Xu Rouzhi looked at Bi Su and laughed: "Don't worry, I won't ruin Crown’s Master's plan."
Bi Su had always called Xu Chang father, but why was she now calling her own father Crown’s Master?
Also, Xu Rouzhi thanked her just now, because that was not her way of saying things.
Bi Su lowered her head silently, and even more suspicions filled her heart. On the way back to her house just now, when she saw the two hibiscus trees by the side of the road, Xu Rouzhi casually picked up a handful of fresh hibiscus leaves. She had no idea what Xu Rouzhi was planning to do at that time, but after hearing Xu Rouzhi's instructions just now, she realized that Xu Rouzhi had picked those hibiscus leaves to treat her injuries.
When did the wangfei ever learn medical skills and learn how to use the lotus flower leaf juice mixed with fragrant oil to treat burns?
The knocking sound suddenly interrupted Bi Su's train of thoughts. Bi Su was shocked: "Who?"
Outside the door, there was the voice of Aunt Ma, who was responsible for her daily expenses. "Bi Su, please open the door.
Bi Su turned around and glanced at Xu Rouzhi. Xu Rouzhi was leaning against the bedside with her eyes closed, meditating.
When Bi Su opened the door, what entered her eyes was the extremely sincere smile on Aunt Ma's face.
Aunt Mi was the most rebellious servant of the palace. Although she was a level higher than the other servants, she was still a servant in front of the wangfei, right? However, this' Aunt Sparrow 'had never displayed even the slightest bit of respect when she saw the wangfei before this.
Oh, if the wangfei got angry today, Aunt Ma's smile would become very sincere!
The only thing she wanted to do was to give a cold snort at Aunt Sparrow. However, even though Princess Qian Qian had given Su Leyao a slight shock today, who knew if things would get more difficult in the future than before. Therefore, Bi Su endured the anger, taking the winter clothes from Aunt Sparrow Hawk.
Aunt Sparrow turned to Xu Rouzhi and smiled obsequiously: "The clothes for the winter should have been sent to the wangfei's room a long time ago. However, there have been a lot of things happening in the palace lately, and if we delay the time, even the Mrs. Su s and their usage have been delayed. I hope that the wangfei and the wives do not blame the servants."
Xu Rouzhi's eyes did not even move as she spoke in an ice-cold tone, "I had thought that when I was frozen to death, Aunt Sparrow would only remember the existence of a wangfei like me!"
With regards to the matter at the front of the hall, Aunt Ma had also taken a look from afar and deeply felt that Xu Rouzhi was a terrifying expert who was concealing his strength. Now that Xu Rouzhi said it, her scalp could not help but tingle, and she immediately smiled apologetically: "This servant does not dare! How could this servant dare? "
Xu Rouzhi did not hold back, "It's good that you don't dare. Since the things have been delivered, Aunt Ma can return to report back! "
As for who she was going to report to, Xu Rouzhi did not say it explicitly.
Aunt Mi did not stay any longer. She bowed and said, "This servant will take his leave."
She was so happy that she carried the soft and warm brocade bed with her as she excitedly said to Xu Rouzhi, "My consort has finally enjoyed the treatment she deserves!"
Xu Rouzhi opened her eyes and sat up, gently patting Bi Su's shoulder, and said gently: "Don't worry, in the future, I won't let you suffer grievances by following me around anymore!"
Bi Su's eyes reddened. "Bi Su is not wronged, the one wronged is the wangfei."
Although she knew very well that she would have to suffer many grievances if she were to complete the mission for the Crown’s Master, living two years in such a depressed and dejected manner was something that Bi Su couldn't bear.
Xu Rouzhi smiled, "I am not that easily bullied!"
— You know, she was a tomboy when she was little, mixed up in boys, going up trees to catch birds, going down to the river to fish, fighting and fighting, and she never did! Although she had restrained herself after entering high school, no one dared to provoke her!
Anyone who knew her would know that the purpose of Qi Yu's report was: If someone does not offend me, I will not offend them; if someone offends me, I will give them a needle; if someone offends me again, I will make you wish you were dead!
Qi Yu had always been interested in learning medicine, giving injections was one of her hobbies! For example, what would it feel like to have a needle prick your ass? Who could stand her?
Of course, Qi Yu was not prepared to give Su Leyao an injection to retaliate against her.
For such a long time, Su Leyao had teamed up with Sang Woruo and taken advantage of him. How could she let such an action go to waste?
Bi Su was a little worried and whispered, "But … Crown’s Master definitely hopes that we can endure it, if not, wouldn't we be exposed … "
"What are you afraid of?" Xu Rouzhi did not mind, "What use is there to only endure and wait patiently? Not only can we not even see Chu Yixuan face to face, we are bullied everyday. "If he's so innocent, then this kind of concealment is meaningless!"
Bi Su lowered her head.
Xu Rouzhi leaned into Bi Su's ear and whispered: "Don't worry, if we really want to be arrogant, then forget it, if Chu Yixuan can't take it, but if he can't, then we might expose his crimes ahead of time! Isn't that equivalent to helping the Crown’s Master and the Eastern Palace? "
Bi Su was startled, she raised her head and looked at Xu Rouzhi: "That's right."
"So!" Xu Rouzhi tilted her head and laughed, showing an innocent and harmless look, "I still have a sense of propriety, don't worry!"
Bi Su's heart slowly relaxed, and happily dispelled the doubt in her heart.
Even if Princess Hua-Yang's personality changed drastically, so what? Maybe this was even better! No matter what, she would still properly protect and take care of Princess Hua-Yang!
"I wonder what wangfei's planning to do next?" Bi Su asked softly.
Xu Rouzhi held onto Bi Su's shoulder, and said with a low voice: "Find a way to get me a medicinal book, don't let Chu Yixuan and Su Leyao's people find out."
Medicine book? Bi Su was startled, but she did not question Xu Rouzhi about the use of the medicine book: "Alright!"
Xu Rouzhi clapped her hands, this was the only way! Who told her that her medical skills weren't good enough? In this era where she only relied on herbal medicine and acupuncture to treat illnesses, all the skills she learned in western medicine were useless!
Thus, she could only seize every moment to identify the medicinal herbs from now on. In the future, she could only rely on this to protect herself and punish her opponents!
Outside the room's door, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Bi Su hurriedly looked through the crack in the door. The one who was walking towards him, was actually Chu Yixuan!
Bi Su was shocked, hurriedly turning her head to whisper. "Princess, the Prince is here!"
"The prince is here?" Xu Rouzhi frowned. Chu Yixuan? What was he doing here?
