He Ying’s attention was instead drawn by a blue robe being left to dry on the golden bamboo pole. Upon careful contemplation, she suddenly recalled that these were Prince Hao’s clothes! Don’t tell me that Su Xi-er has become Prince Hao’s personal imperial laundry palace maid? He Ying’s complexion became even more ghastly when this thought crossed her mind. “When …

Old Maidservant Li walked right at the front and glanced at Su Xi-er. Afterwards, she bellowed at the Palace Side Quarters’ palace maids partaking their meals in the room, “Palace maids transferred over from the Palace Side Quarters, all of you are to return to the Palace Side Quarters after you are done washing the clothes today.” In an instant, …

Pei Qianhao loosened his hands. “It’s nothing. Wear your shirt properly. Return to your room after you have delivered the medicine.” He then turned to leave, leaving the door wide open. Peering out, Su Xi-er saw that all the palace maids in the vicinity had already been dismissed. Gazing at his retreating figure, she mused over what he had said …

He Ying nodded. She shifted her gaze to Su Xi-er and spoke unhurriedly, “Su Xi-er, why have you left the Palace Side Quarters and come to the Laundry Service Bureau? You are no longer scrubbing chamber pots, but washing clothes?” Old Maidservant Li had just rushed over and happened to hear what He Ying said. If He Ying had targeted …

She did something different again. If it had been any other woman, they would be at a loss of what to do in such a panicked situation. Then, when she saw me, she would …

Old Maidservant Liu’s gaze landed on Su Xi-er. “Return to your room and stay there aside from meal times. Go and scrub the chamber pots punctually tonight.” When the subject of scrubbing the chamber pots was brought up, Su Xi-er couldn’t help but ask in puzzlement, “Are there other palace maids scrubbing chamber pots? The number of pots I receive …

The group of imperial guards were scared silly upon seeing Pei Qianhao enter. These people were under the administration of the Imperial Guard Army Commander, Yuchi Mo, who had become Pei Qianhao’s subordinate a few years ago. “Paying respects to Prince Hao.” All the imperial guards in the courtyard knelt on the ground. Pei Qianhao waved his hand, signalling for …

Pei Qianhao suddenly decided to stand up from his chair and draw closer to her step by step. “Su Xi-er, you are still concealing it in front of this prince? The one who knocked out the imperial guards and snuck into the Laundry Service Bureau last night was none other than you. You know best in your heart why the …

After approximately an hour, the red spots had completely vanished. Soon after, the doors were pushed open by Imperial Physician Zhao. He was tailed by a little apprentice pharmacist who was even younger than Situ Lin. His hair was tied up in a high ponytail and he looked rather likeable. Running up to Su Xi-er he blinked for a moment …
