Pregnant with Twins: Poison Doctor Consort is Too Hard to Please

Chapter 40



Chapter 40

After the Empress Dowager had finished speaking, she stood up and returned to her bedroom, leaving behind a dumbfounded Princess Xuehua. That was not what she had meant at all!

Princess Xuehua could only feel a lump in her throat, and it was so uncomfortable that she could not breathe. She clearly wanted the Empress Dowager to punish Su Qian severely, and it would be best if she could give her a dozen flogs. Who knew that the Empress Dowager would let her off after she told her to copy the scriptures?

...

After taking a quick glance at Princess Xuehua, Nanny Jin quickly walked over to Su Qian and bowed. “Miss Su, the Empress Dowager is taking an afternoon nap. Please follow me to the side hall to copy the scriptures.”

“Alright.” Su Qian stood up. She wasn’t surprised that the Empress Dowager would punish her. After accepting the punishment, she was about to head to the side hall with Nanny Jin.

“Stop there.” Princess Xuehua could not let this go. She stood up proudly and put on a fake smile. “Nanny Jin, Miss Su is Ninth Brother’s fiancée. How can you let her go to the side hall to copy the scriptures? Why don’t we let her go to the west side hall to copy?”

“But Princess, the west side hall is full of gifts from the Ninth Prince to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager has always valued them. If anything goes wrong…” Nanny Jin said with difficulty.

“It’s precisely because the west side hall is filled with things that Ninth Brother has gifted that Miss Su should go there. This way, when she is copying the scriptures, she will be able to see Ninth Brother’s filial piety towards the Empress Dowager. In the future, she will know how to be filial to the Empress Dowager. Just listen to me, and this matter is settled,” said Princess Xuehua without a doubt.

“Yes.” Nanny Jin didn’t dare to disobey the princess’s orders, so she could only nod and walk towards the west side hall with Su Qian.

No one lived in the west side hall all year round, but many palace servants were serving here, especially the three teams of powerful guards who patrolled the place for 24 hours. It was enough to see how much importance the Empress Dowager placed on Xiao Yan.

After entering the west side hall, Su Qian saw that the decorations were elegant and quiet, and she couldn’t help but take a closer look. Nanny Jin reminded her out of kindness, “Miss Su, all the furnishings in this room were given to the Empress Dowager by the Ninth Prince. The Empress Dowager treasures them very much, so you must be careful not to break them. Otherwise, the Empress Dowager will be angry, and I’m afraid it won’t be as simple as copying the scriptures.”

“Thank you, Nanny. I will definitely be careful.” Su Qian smiled and nodded in agreement.

After preparing the ink and paper, Nanny Jin left the room. Little did she know, a small silver spider crawled out of Su Qian’s arms the moment she left.

“Hehe, Master, I think you’re going to be scammed!” The small spider was the size of a palm, and it did not have the ferocity of a spider at all. Its entire body was as white as snow, and it had a pair of charming purple eyes. Its three pairs of small compound eyes squinted, and even the sound it made was tender and lovely.

“I’m sure Princess Xuehua is up to no good by arranging for me to stay in this room.” Su Qian didn’t look sideways, and her Jade-like fingers held the brush as she quickly copied the scriptures. “Xiao Yin, help me keep an eye on them. As long as you do well, I’ll reward you with a big chicken leg tonight.”

“Sure!” Xiao Yin was so happy that he jumped out of the window and lay on the pillar in the corridor, waiting.

Outside the door, Nanny Jin waited quietly while Su Qian was writing furiously inside.

Time flew by, and just as Xiao Yin was about to fall asleep, Princess Xuehua finally came over from the other end of the corridor with two maids.

Xiao Yin instantly perked up!

Squeak squeak!

At this moment, the sound of a mouse suddenly came from one of the maidservants. In this immersed atmosphere, it was particularly abrupt.

The three pairs of compound eyes narrowed again, and Xiao Yin looked over warily…
