It couldn't be that simple for Princess Yuhe to make such a big fuss just to ruin her clothes.

In whatever parties, the noble ladies took with them clothes for changing. Mo Qianxue did so as well. Yet, her clothes were now in the bag of Chuyi.

However, at this point of time, all the ladies’ servants were arranged to have lunch, which was a rule of the party, in the purpose of better serving the ladies in the afternoon.

In fact, it made sense to Mo Qianxue. No servants would be specially provided with lunch. It was a management method to gather them for lunch.

Yet, was it a coincidence that her clothes were stained when her servant was around?

The other servants present were all people of Princess Yuhe.

Mo Qianxue sneered. It seemed that Princess Yuhe had arranged everything for her.

After disposing of the clumsy servants, Princess Yuhe looked back at Mo Qianxue and gave her an apologetic smile, gently ordering her own servants, “Bihuan, you take Miss. Mo to the lounge first, then choose a lake-blue dress for Miss. Mo from my exclusive wardrobe as my apology.”

Susu had told her that the row of houses behind was composed of many courtyards.

The wing rooms in the courtyards were for the ladies, who came to enjoy the flowers, to rest.

Afterwards, Princess Yuhe looked back to Mo Qianxue again, saying in a concerning and considerate voice, “You don't need to come here to greet me after getting changed. The morning section will be over. Miss. Mo just stays in the lounge. I’ll have refreshments sent there and you’ll be noticed after the noon break.”

Mo Qianxue ignored her messy clothes and curtsied, sneering inwardly, but looking serious, “Thank you, Princess. I’m leaving now.”

Great. Every detail was arranged for her. She didn't need to come out after she changed.

It meant that Princess Yuhe had found a good excuse for her unable to appear in public immediately.

She appeared not to see Mo Qianxue’s curtsying and rolled her eyes around, adding, “After your servant girl has lunch, she will be led to you. Don't worry. Just take a good rest. The servants in this garden are considerate too. Just tell them if you need anything.”

Only when finishing this did she raise hand to let Mo Qianxue get up and gesture Bihuan to take Mo Qianxue to the lounge to change and rest.

Need anything? Funny!

What else could she need? A princess had drooped down to such an extent, granting her clothes and showing apology, only because of a servant’s mistake. What else could she ask for besides thanking her grace?

Junzhu Susu had stood up to help Mo Qianxue when the soup was spattering and now suggested to leave with her, but Mo Qianxue turned her down.

She was going to be hacked. Why drag Susu in it?

Susu worried about her and insisted, but Mo Qianxue shook her head firmly.

Susu thought maybe Mo Qianxue was really tired and needed a rest, so she no longer insisted and sat back in her own chair after giving her a comforting look.

Thanking her, Mo Qianxue turned and walked away with Bihuan.

At the poem competition, she had won the pendant and ruined Princess Yuhe’s plan, but the latter managed to maintain calm and continued to carry out her plan unhurriedly step by step. She really had certain abilities to be able to spread a reputation of benevolence at the age of 13.

Nevertheless, besides those filthy tricks, they couldn't come up with decent schemes.

Mo Qianxue took out an elixir and swallowed when the servants didn't pay attention.

The elixir immediately melted in her mouth, and her mind was crystal-clear.

The elixir was from old Mr. Wang. It helped promote the clarity of mind and meanwhile defended the taker against acids, knockout drops, philters and the sort.

Mr. Wang himself didn't have many of it because the guiding herb was hard to obtain. It was her nonstop badgering and pestering that got herself one little bottle and a dozen elixirs.

After taking the elixir, she pinched gold needles between fingers.

Bihuan was dedicated in leading the way and, when they arrived at the end of the corridor where the ladies gathered, waved to summon another two servants following behind them.

Mo Qianxue took a glance at the two girls. How ugly!

There were a dozen courtyards in the row. Besides Huangyi Courtyard exclusive to imperial princesses, the others with ‘Tao (Peach)’ were prepared for the noble ladies.

Following Bihuan, Mo Qianxue stepped into the right wing house of Taojing Courtyard.

The wing house was also exquisite with two rooms, the outer one the living room while the inner one bedroom. They were decorated with flowers, adding a taste of late spring.

Bihuan led Mo Qianxue into the room, invited her to sit on the couch in the living room, and summoned two nannies who guarded the yard to make tea for her.

Mo Qianxue looked around the room. There seemed nothing wrong with it.

However, the incense was strange, obviously prepared beforehand.

When the two nannies brought over hot water, Bihua prepared tea leaves on the table and made a cup of tea for Mo Qianxue, smiling respectfully and advising her to drink the tea to drive away a possible cold which might be resulted from wearing wet clothes.

Mo Qianxue took over the teacup, smelt a little and drank it.

The days weren’t spent idle when she practiced the needles. Considering the lesson that she learnt in the Jian mansion and anticipating that this kind of filthy scheme wouldn't be less in the capital, she, while practicing the needles, also asked Mr. Wang to teach her how to recognize filthy drugs.

Mr. Wang, the strange doctor, lived up to his name and certainly had special ways to teach her to recognize low-level drugs in a short time. After taking the elixir, she wouldn't be affected by the low-level drugs.

The incense in the room had ingredient of philter while the tea was knockout drops. A two-pronged approach! How diligent was Princess Yuhe!

Seeing Mo Qianxue drinking the tea, Bihuan displayed joy that couldn't be hidden anymore, taking over the cup and putting it on the table.

She first urged the two ugly servant girls to take care of Mo Qianxue, then walked to the door to remind the two nannies that Mo Qianxue had been scared, urging them to shut up the door, guard carefully outside, and not to go inside to bother Miss. Mo who would take a rest…

The two nannies answered “yes”, shut the doors and left.

Mo Qianxue sneered. What a meticulous plan!

Shut the door and guard outside and not to come in to bother her? If any filthy sound did ring in the room, they wouldn't be able to hear that. Arranging all this, Bihuan turned back and said goodbye, in the pretext of fetching clothes for her.

To fetch clothes? There must be something wrong in the room that she didn't dare to stay longer.

Mo Qianxue had seen clearly that the two ugly girls had Adam’s apples.

At this point, their faces were red and eyes suggesting…

Mo Qianxue couldn't be more raging. Even their standing next to her was disgusting.

Coldness gleaming in her eyes, she ordered, “Go and make bed. I’m a little dizzy. Be quick to clean the room, and I’ll take a rest in bed later…”

Hearing Mo Qianxue’s order, Bihuan, who was leaving the room, made a cruel smile, which also contained smug and mock.

The two flushing girls, on hearing the order, looked at each other and smiled grossly, replying in a deliberate high-pitch, “Yes.” Then they walked to the inner room.

As just they got inside, Mo Qianxue snorted and hurried forward.

The gold needles came out.

Bihuan, who just walked out and was about to close the door, was suddenly hit by the needles and passed out, without knowing anything.

Mo Qianxue acted quickly and dragged her into the room.

Her current skills could keep the prey fainting for an hour. Bihuan wouldn’t wake up even an earthquake took place.

Unless… she gave her more needles…

There came the sound of making bed from the inner bedroom. It seemed they almost finished. Mo Qianxue hurriedly took out the hairpin in Bihuan’s hair and shouted to inside, “Be careful, and check every corner for bugs…”

Without the hairpin, Bihuan’s hair fell loose and covered her face.

The reply “yes” rang in the bedroom, when Mo Qianxue had already taken off her clothes and thrown away, and then ripped off Bihuan’s clothes, quickly put them on, turned around, walked out and shut the doors.

The series of actions was completed in an instant. The two nannies were guarding outside the yard, so now there was no one else.

Mo Qianxue didn't leave but stayed at the door, sneering and listening to what was happening inside.

Later, she still had something to do.

Probably, there would be people coming and discovering the scene, as played on TV.

Probably… Anyway, she’d better be careful not to miss any good drama.

There were sounds of steps in the room. It should be the two fake girls walking out.

Their unsteady steps suggested that they had inhaled much of the incense.

Mo Qianxue’s hands turned into fists.

Princess Yuhe wanted two fake girls to serve her? Without thinking, she knew what kind of service that would be.

Two? Two! Princess Yuhe was so generous. In the future, she would definitely pay back twice!
