The Evil King's Pampered Wife: The Concubine of the Divine Doctor

Chapter 67
Back at the Taozhu Pavilion, Xiaotao surrounded Yan Ruobing to ask her how she was doing. They hadn't seen each other for a few days, and when they were reunited, they began to chatter endlessly.

"Your lady, I have brought so many rewards back, who else can bully me?"

Yan Ruobing had a proud expression on her face. The biggest gain she gained from entering the palace this time was that she received a lot of rewards, and she also got to know the queen mother as a big backer.

"Xue'er, here are these things for you. You don't usually like to dress up. Girls only look good when they are well-dressed."

Yan Ruobing deliberately selected some beautiful jewelry for Xue'er from the jewelry bestowed by the emperor.

Xue'er looked at those precious jewelry, but she shook her head and dared not accept it, "This is a reward from the emperor to you, Miss, Xue'er can't take it."

"Xue'er, it's okay. Since the lady gave it to you, you can accept it. We are all a family anyway, so don't care about these etiquettes."

Compared with Xueer, Xiaotao is much more natural. After all, she has followed Yan Ruobing for a longer time, so she understands Yan Ruobing's temper very well.

Yan Ruobing nodded at Xue'er, and Xue'er accepted the things uneasy, not very excited, but rather complicated.

Miss is so kind to me, how can I do something to hurt her, but...

Xue'er thought secretly in her heart, she seemed very embarrassed, until after Xiaotao withdrew, Xue'er still refused to leave.

"Xue'er, what's the matter?"

Seeing that Xue'er was a little abnormal, Yan Ruobing couldn't help asking curiously, when she left the palace, Xue'er had just entered the mansion not long ago, so she didn't know how Xue'er had been during this time.

"Miss, Xueer has something to ask Miss."

After a moment of silence, Xueer seemed to muster up the courage to speak out what was in her heart.

"Well, what's the matter?"

"Miss, do you like the prince?"

Xue'er looked at Yan Ruobing nervously, as if looking forward to her answer.

Although she didn't know why Xue'er would ask such a question suddenly, Yan Ruobing still replied truthfully: "There is no liking between me and the prince. But..."

"But what?"

Hearing Yan Ruobing's half-spoken words, Xue'er immediately became anxious, with a nervous expression as if this matter related to herself.

"Although I don't like it, it's not that annoying."

Yan Ruobing listened for a few seconds, thought for a while before answering.When she first crossed over, facing Huangfuao's iceberg face, she hated it very much.

But after getting along for this period of time, she found that Huangfu Ao's heart is not as cold as his surface, at least not to her.

Moreover, he has helped her several times, so even if there is no affection between them, there is absolutely no hatred between them.

"so……"

Xue'er murmured to herself in a low voice, but Yan Ruobing didn't hear what she was saying clearly, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly think of asking this?"

Yan Ruobing didn't even think about Xue'er's question, so Xue'er's question made her feel strange.

"No... nothing..."

Xue'er was in a panic trying to hide something, before Yan Ruobing could ask any further questions, she picked up her things and backed away, saying, "It's getting late, Xue'er won't bother Miss to rest."

Seeing Xue'er acting so mysteriously, Yan Ruobing intuitively felt that there must be something wrong with it.Could it be... Xue Er also fell in love with Huangfu Ao?
This was the only explanation Yan Ruobing could think of, but she knew that any woman who fell in love with Huangfuao would be very pitiful.

The next day, not long after Yan Ruobing woke up, she saw Xueer rushing in with a panicked look on her face.

"Miss, something is wrong!"

"What's the fuss about?"

Xue'er has always been cautious in doing things, and rarely loses her composure like this.So seeing her panicked, Yan Ruobing suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

"Miss, hurry up and rescue Miss Xiaotao, she was taken away by the escort of Concubine Yu."

"Yan Ruoyu? Why did she take Xiaotao away?"

Yan Ruobing knew that Yan Ruoyu was a savage and unreasonable master, and it must be no good for her to let Xiaotao be taken away.

"When we were in the kitchen just now, Sister Xiaotao accidentally knocked over Concubine Yu's bird's nest. Concubine Yu's maid ran back to complain, and then brought the guards to the kitchen to escort Sister Xiaotao away."

Xue'er briefly told the story, Yan Ruobing heard this, hurriedly changed her clothes, and went straight to Yan Ruoyu's yard.

She is very clear that Yan Ruoyu is a person who is very good at taking advantage of the situation, and Xiaotao accidentally made a mistake, and if it falls into her hands this time, there will definitely be no good results.

Sure enough, when she rushed to Yan Ruoyu's yard, Xiaotao was kneeling in the middle of the yard, and the maid beside Yan Ruoyu was holding a long wooden duster, looking menacing.

"If you still don't admit your mistake, then the concubine will be blamed and continue to torture you!"

As soon as Yan Ruoyu's words fell, the maid stepped forward again, waved the wooden duster in her hand, and made a gesture to hit Xiaotao.

"stop!"

Yan Ruobing yelled, rushed forward in three steps at a time, pushed the maid away, and helped Xiao Tao up from the ground.

"Xiaotao, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?"

At this time, Xiaotao had tears streaming down her face, her hands were holding her arms, and her lips were bleeding from being bitten.

Yan Ruobing checked her, only to find that there were several wounds on Xiaotao's body.

"Sister, my sister is here to teach a servant who made a mistake. Does my sister want to protect her?"

Seeing that Yan Ruobing wanted to protect Xiaotao, Yan Ruoyu immediately aimed at Yan Ruobing, as if she was waiting for her to come over.

Yan Ruobing observed the situation in the courtyard, there were actually eight guards standing on both sides, presumably Yan Ruoyu was well prepared and knew that she would come.

Yan Ruoyu and Han Shuangyue suffered a lot when they were in the prime minister's residence last time, so this time Yan Ruoyu learned how to find helpers.

But Yan Ruoyu seems to have forgotten one thing, this is the palace of the prince, not the prime minister's palace.Yan Ruobing is the princess, and she is just a side concubine.

With different statuses, it's possible that Xiaotao really made a mistake. Beating a dog depends on the owner. Yan Ruobing wants to protect her, but she can't do anything about it.

"It's just that you knocked over a bowl of bird's nest. As a side concubine, it would be out of style for you to be so careless with your servants? Even if it's really Xiaotao's fault, you beat me up, what else do you want?"

Yan Ruobing's words were like needles, every sentence pierced into Yan Ruoyu's heart.

"My younger sister is just disciplining the servants for my elder sister. This dead girl, she has made a mistake and still refuses to admit it. If she doesn't teach her a lesson, she will do something even more outrageous next time."

Yan Ruoyu wasn't stage fright, even when facing Yan Ruobing, she didn't show any fear on the surface, instead she felt that her words were reasonable.

"Miss, Xiao Tao didn't intend to knock over things, it was Xiao Lan who pushed me, and I accidentally knocked over that bowl of bird's nest."
