Chapter 498 Clumsy
Seeing Xiao Muying's approach, the servant hurriedly bowed and said: "The young one is a servant of Mr. Jin's residence, and he has seen Miss Xiao."

Xiao Muying went straight to sit in front of the main seat, and said lightly: "You don't need to be polite, get up."

The family member straightened up but did not raise his head, and said respectfully: "Miss Xiao, today the emperor rewarded Mr. Jin with a box of snacks, and Mr. Jin specially asked the younger one to give some to the girl to taste. Also, Mr. Jin said that there is nothing in the house. It's a matter, the girl doesn't have to go to the house today, just rest at home for a day."

Hearing what the servant said, Xiao Muying frowned again.

She was silent for a moment, and did not respond to the servant's words, but said lightly: "You raise your head first."

The servant was stunned for a moment, then timidly raised his head to look at Xiao Muying, only to see a trace of panic faintly visible on his still young face.

He was trying his best to conceal his panic, and asked in a low voice, "What is Miss Xiao's order?"

Xiao Muying looked at the servant's face, she was somewhat familiar, as if she was indeed the servant of Zijin's mansion.

Her eyes were as deep as torches, she looked fixedly at the servant's face, but remained silent and said nothing.

Xiao Muying's gaze seemed to be able to see through everything, just looking at the servant like this made the panic on his face more and more obvious, and it was no longer possible to hide it.

After a long time, Xiao Muying smiled faintly, and said softly: "Okay, put the snack down, and thank Mr. Jin for me."

A look of obvious stupefaction appeared on the servant's face. After a while, he took a few steps forward with relief, put the food box in his hand on the Eight Immortals' square table next to Xiao Muying, then stepped back three steps, and saluted: "Xiao Muying I understand, if Miss Xiao has no other orders, I will leave."

Xiao Muying nodded, and said lightly: "You go."

The servant said nothing more, turned around and walked out of the hall.

Xiao Muying watched the servant's figure leave the main hall quickly, sat and waited for a while, stood up and walked outside the hall, and called out to Jie Sheng and Liao Xu who were competing in archery in the courtyard: "Jie Sheng, Liao Xu, Stop practicing, you two, come here!"

Both Jiesheng and Liao Xu turned their heads to look at Xiao Muying, responded one after another, and strode over.

When both Jiesheng and Liao Xuju ran in front of her, Xiao Muying stepped forward to get closer to the two of them, and said in a low voice: "Jiesheng, did you notice that person just now? Go and follow quietly." He, see who he met today, don't let him notice that someone is following him, understand?"

Jiesheng nodded and said, "Understood, sister, then I'll go."

"Go." Xiao Muying watched Jiesheng turn and run away, then turned to look at Liao Xu, and said, "Liao Xu, come with me."

Having said that, she turned around and walked into the main hall, followed by Liao Xu.

Xiao Muying went all the way to the Eight Immortals' square table in the innermost place, opened the food box sent by the famous servant Ding, randomly took a piece of snack out and kept it with a handkerchief, turned around and handed it to Liao Xu, and ordered: "Liao Xu, you bring Take this snack and go outside to find a doctor, and ask him to tell whether the snack is poisonous. Remember, don’t talk to the doctor, just ask him to see if there is any poison in it, and what kind of poison it is. After distinguishing, seal his mouth with a lot of money, so that he doesn't say too much, do you understand?"

"I understand, sister Xiao." Liao Xu took the snack wrapped in a handkerchief, and said in surprise, "Sister, how do you know there is poison in it? Is someone trying to harm you?"

Xiao Muying smiled coldly, and said lightly: "There are many people who want to hurt me, and they never stop, and now they even use such a clumsy trick. You go, go and come back quickly, don't attract attention."

"Okay." Liao Xu nodded, turned around and hurried out of the hall.
