Ace's favorite concubine: Xiangmen's concubine

Chapter 100 You Do It Yourself (2)

She followed Ning Yuyao without saying a word, and when she reached the Linshui Pavilion, Wan Cui ran to prepare hot water. In the main room, except for the maid serving tea, only she and Ning Yuyao were left.

She took the copper basin from the maid, twisted a hot towel and handed it to Ning Yuyao, wiped his hands for him, and then told the little maid, "Go down first."

"Yes." The maid glanced at Ning Yuyao, and seeing that he did not object, she followed Xia Yuanxi's will and retreated, closing the door behind her.

She walked to the window, closed the window tightly, withdrew her hand but stood still in front of the window.

"Didn't the prince go to put down the rebellion this time?" She stared at her hands that were pierced by the thing Pei Caiwei threw, and asked softly,

"En." He responded without any trace, picked up the teacup at hand, and slowly blew away the foam on it.

She didn't expect him to answer so readily, she was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Then... how is Pei Yuyan doing now?"

"She is doing well, so you don't need to worry about it." Ning Yuyao replied slowly with a hint of disdain in his tone, "You just need to take care of yourself. The king didn't keep you in the palace to make you feel comfortable. In the future, if you can't even handle Pei Caiwei, then what's the use of the king keeping you in the palace."

"I understand." She slowly lowered her hand, staring at the layer of frost on the window paper, "I know everything in my heart, you don't have to remind me over and over again."

He suddenly put down the tea cup in his hand heavily, and sneered, "If the king doesn't rush back today, will you survive? The king never thought that you would be so vulnerable."

From the first day she married him, Ning Yuyao kept provoking her with these words, even if her heart was made of stone, it would still hurt, right?

She turned around expressionlessly, and knelt down towards him, "I understand, I will definitely not let her take advantage of this opportunity in the future, don't worry, my lord."

In fact, before he uttered a voice to stop Pei Caiwei, she was planning to join Pei Caiwei's army instead. If Pei Caiwei trampled on the things that the emperor gave her, it would be disrespectful to the current emperor.

Besides, if she said that it was a gift from the emperor, it would prove that the emperor had the intention to elevate her status. She was not a concubine, but a concubine. Pei Caiwei was not such a dull person, so she would definitely understand.

But just when she was about to speak, he stopped Pei Caiwei. She didn't know what it meant. Maybe he wanted to protect herself and warn Pei Caiwei, or he wanted to remind herself how cowardly she was.

"My lord, the hot water is ready." Wan Cui suddenly knocked on the door twice from outside.

"It's good that you understand." Hearing Wan Cui's report outside the door, he glanced at Xia Yuanxi who was kneeling on the ground, and added in a low voice, "This king is going to go to war in a while, so you can do it yourself."

"Yes." She lowered her head and replied, hearing his footsteps out of the door, slowly got up.

What he meant was that he must seize the few days he was in the mansion and find a way to rectify Pei Caiwei, otherwise she could only be reduced to the end of an abandoned child, and there would be no day for her to recover.

With his cold temper, coupled with his embarrassing status, as long as he is useless to him, he will not care about his life. She managed to survive, not to die at the hands of the Yang family again.

The debts owed by the Yang family will have to be repaid sooner or later, and she must see the day when they fall down with her own eyes.
