Chapter 132 Nangong Ningxin
As soon as Xia Houzhen and Xia Houkun sat down, many officials stepped forwards and surrounded them.
Su Muge withdrew her eyes and continued eating and drinking on her chair.
Soon, all the pastries on Su Muge’s table were finished. After drinking plenty of tea, she was very full.
“Mother, I’m going to the toilet.” She whispered to Zhao.
Since there were too many people in the palace, except for so high-rank officials who could bring their attendants, other attendants had to wait in the outer hall.
“The road is slippery in snowy days. Be careful.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Su Muge walked out of the hall, she felt a cold wind. A little maid ca up to show her the way.
The toilet was in the courtyard behind the main hall. “Miss Su, this way please. I’ll prepare a warm handkerchief for you.” The warm handkerchief was used to wipe hands afterwards.
“Thank you.”
Su Muge put on her cloak and prepared to go down the corridor. Just as she stepped up, a maid rushed up towards her.
“Ah!”
“Snap”
The maid fell to the ground, and the thing in her hand was shattered.
Su Muge was fine; she took two steps back and kept her feet.
“Are you okay?”
The maid who fell on the ground was wearing a palace uniform. Judging from the color of her clothes, she should be a high-ranking maid in a palace. On the ground was a bowl of cubilose porridge. After it was scattered, it was instantly frozen.
“You, how dare you?! This is for the Empress. How dare you knock it over?! If the Empress blas you, you’ll be dood!” The maid stood up from the ground and stared at Su Muge fiercely.
Su Muge raised her eyebrows slightly. It was clear that she had walked too fast to notice Su Muge and bumped into her. How could she bla her?!
“You were carrying it?”
“Otherwise?”
Su Muge raised the corner of her lips coldly. “Since it has fallen from your hands, how can the Empress bla ?! She will only bla you for doing things rashly.”
The maid glared at her and was surprised to hear Su Muge’s words. “You! It’s because you hit .”
“Has anyone seen it?” Su Muge lowered her voice. There was nobody around them in the open corridor.
After finishing her words, Su Muge ignored her and went directly to the toilet.
Seeing her leave, the maid gradually withdrew her angry expression, picked up the debris on the ground, and left in the opposite direction.
She ca to a hut outside the hall and pushed the door in.
“Miss Nangong, I’m back.”
Nangong Ningxin looked at her with a gentle smile.
“I’ve done as you said. Miss Su ...” The maid told the whole story to her.
After hearing the story, Nangong Ningxin nodded slowly. And her maid i’e standing behind her stepped forward and gave a purse to the palace maid.
After the maid left, Nangong Ningxin touched her neat hair. “She’s rather smart.”
“Miss, that Miss Su ...” i’e couldn’t understand why Nangong Ningxin would send soone to test Su Muge who had no interaction with her.
Nangong Ningxin turned her eyes softly to i’e who instantly lowered her head with a serious face. “Sorry, I shouldn’t ask.”
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Nangong Ningxin and i’e ca out of the room and saw two sneaky figures walking into the next room.
Nangong Ningxin and i’e looked at each other silently, and i’e imdiately walked to the next door that had just been closed to eavesdrop.
“Miss, rest assured. I’ll bring Second Prince here. Nothing will go wrong.”
“Well, as long as you get things done, I’ll never treat you badly. How dare the slut Su Muge want to marry Second Prince?! Dream on!”
After a while, hearing footsteps in the room, Nangong Ningxin and i’s turned around and left.
After walking away, i’e leaned forward to Nangong Ningxin and whispered sothing in her ear.
Nangong Ningxin revealed a faint smile.
“Send soone to ...”
i’e nodded. “I see.”
After coming back from the toilet, Su Muge realized that the banquet wouldn’t start until noon. And there was still so ti before noon.
While Su Muge was thinking about how to pass the ti, she saw the maid who had knocked into her approaching her.
“It turns out to be Miss Su from Su Mansion of Lord Su, Grade-9 Official of Ministry of Works. Her Grace said that she wanted to et you, Miss Su. Co with , please.”
“Her Grace wants to see ?”
“This is the token of Her Grace. Miss Su, I’m afraid it’s your first ti to see it.” The maid took out a gold token with the word “phoenix” on it.
Su Muge raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that the Empress wouldn’t be so stingy to bla her for a bowl of cubilose porridge.
“Miss Su, let’s go. Don’t let Her Grace wait for so long.”
Zhao, who was originally sitting beside her, had gone to Madam Lin to chat without any notice of the situation here.
Su Muge stood up and walked out with the palace maid.
While walking, Su Muge felt sothing wrong. Before she could ask, the maid said, “Her Grace is in the side hall, waiting for the bowl of cubilose porridge. Miss Su, you’ll have to explain to Her Grace.”
Su Muge followed her with doubts. After they stopped outside of a room in the side hall, the maid took advantage of Su Muge’s inattention to push her into the room and locked the door.
Su Muge was slightly staggered before keeping her feet. She suddenly revealed a chilling look.
She pushed the door; it had been locked. Even the windows had been locked.
Just as she wanted to kick the door, a plu of white smoke rose from the incense burner in the room, and a fragrance of orchids scattered in the room instantly.
She went to the table and slled it. “It’s the knockout incense! Damn it!” And she felt dizzy instantly.
Su Muge imdiately held her breath, pulled a hairpin off her hair, and took out the pill in it. After swallowing the pill, she instantly felt much soberer with a refreshing sll of dicine in her mouth. Then she threw a pill into the incense burner. The white smoke began to fade away gradually until it dissipated completely.
At this ti, she heard a series of footsteps outside the door. She wanted to hide under the bed, but her legs hadn’t recovered from the knockout incense.
When she could move, the door had been pushed open, and Xia Houkun ca in.
Xia Houkun was a little stunned at the sight of Su Muge in the room; obviously, he didn’t expect it to be her.
Xia Houkun closed the door with a smile. “Why? Call here so mysteriously? Do you miss too much?” While speaking, he took a step towards Su Muge.
Su Muge frowned slightly and took a quick step back.
“Your Royal Highness, you must be joking. How will I call you here for no reason? The banquet is about to begin. Please excuse my departure.”
Xia Houkun stretched his arms to stop her. “You’ve tried so hard to call here. How could you leave like this? Don’t pretend to be reserved in front of . Do you really think I can be fooled so easily?”
Su Muge looked at him coldly. “What do you want, Your Royal Highness?”
Xia Houkun leaned against the door with a smile. “Of course, to do sothing you want to do but haven’t done.”
After he finished speaking, he reached out to grasp Su Muge’s wrist. Su Muge frowned and wanted to break away from him. However, he grasped her even more tightly.
“Let go!”
Just as Xia Houkun wanted to pull her to his arms, Su Muge raised her foot and kicked at his private parts.
Xia Houkun stepped aside to avoid her foot but didn’t release his hand.
Su Muge pulled out the silver needle from her hair bun with the other hand and pierced it into the point between his thumb and forefinger.
Xia Houkun groaned in pain and had to release his hand.
“How dare you attack ?!” Xia Houkun glared at her.
Su Muge ignored him and turned to open the door.
Xia Houkun wouldn’t let her go so easily. He rushed up to block the door, held her up, and walked towards the bed.
Su Muge was shocked. She took advantage of Xia Houkun’s inattention to pierce the silver needle into the acupuncture point on his neck.
Xia Houkun felt myasthenic and collapsed on the bed.
Su Muge pushed him away, kicked him into the bed, and jumped out of bed. Suddenly, she heard a series of rapid footsteps outside.
She looked around and hid in the cabinet beside the bed.
“Squeak”
The door was pushed open, and a figure ca in.
“Your Royal Highness? Your Royal Highness?”
Su Muge raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard the voice. It was Su Jingwen’s voice!? Why was she here?
Su Jingwen looked around the room and found soone on the bed. She walked over carefully.
“Oh! Your Royal Highness, what’s wrong with you?” Su Jingwen looked at Xia Houkun lying still on the bed in amazent. She reached out her quivering hand to his nose. After making sure he was still breathing, she exhaled a sigh of relief.
“Is he so tired that he falls asleep?”
Su Muge rolled her eyes. Did she really think Xia Houkun stupid?
“Well, it’s much easier.” Su Jingwen took out a porcelain bottle and opened Xia Houkun’s mouth to feed him.
Soon, Xia Houkun let out a soft moan from his throat, and Su Jingwen put down the bed curtain nervously and excitedly.
“Your Royal Highness? Your Royal Highness?”
Su Muge opened the cabinet and walked out quietly without Su Jingwen’s notice.
“Ah! Your Royal Highness! What, what are you doing?”
The two on the bed suddenly began to move. Su Muge paused and squatted down.
On the bed, Xia Houkun pressed Su Jingwen under his body with his eyes half open and began to tear her dress.
“Your Royal Highness, don’t, don’t do this! What, what do you want to do to ...”
“Don’t you know what I want to do ...”
Hearing Su Jingwen’s excited voice, Su Muge rolled her eyes.
When the two were stripped and completely imrsed in each other, Su Muge walked to the door quickly. Just as she wanted to open the door, she heard a series of footsteps outside.
Su Muge was stiffened suddenly and had to hide under the table with her breath held.
