Chapter 116: Chapter 116 ExhaustionXingxing mentioned the wordless tablet. Su Jin’s mind flashed to the two tablets placed side by side at the Marquis Dongxiang Mansion. Since Su Chong replaced it with a new one, he naturally had to ensure the military book was exactly the same. A well-worn military book actually angered Marquis Dongxiang, punishing Su Chong to kneel all night, and retrieved the discarded book. This shows that what is precious is not the military book but the significance behind it. Moreover, the military book and the wordless tablet have an inseparable connection. From her father’s purposeful recruitment to a well-worn military book. Instinctively, Su Jin felt that the wordless tablet was not as simple as Xingxing said, there must be some unknown secret behind it. The air was filled with the smell of something burned. Xingxing exclaimed, "The medicine has boiled dry!" She ran over to pick up the medicine pot, but as soon as she picked it up, it burned her so much that she grimaced in pain. The Hidden Guard went over to help. The medicine was ruined, so Su Jin went back inside to prepare another dose. A quarter of an hour later, Xie Jingchen was soaking in the wooden tub, and Su Jin was applying acupuncture. To avoid a situation where Xie Jingchen is left soaking when she’s not around, Su Jin already taught the Hidden Guard how to remove the silver needles yesterday. Thus, after helping Xie Jingchen with the acupuncture, Su Jin went to the front courtyard to busy herself. In the small side courtyard, Su Jin stood aside watching a maid massage Mrs. Wang’s shoulders. After a while, Su Jin asked, "How does it feel, Mrs. Wang?" Mrs. Wang turned her head quickly to look at Su Jin and said, "I can’t compare with the Eldest Young Madam, but it’s much better than the average maid." Of course, she was incomparable, as she knew all the acupuncture points on the back, which the maid didn’t know, just copying gourd from the model for these days. To achieve this level was already quite good. Su Jin lay on the small couch, personally feeling how well the maids had learned. Next, she planned to draw a diagram of the human body, marking the acupuncture points, so that the maids would have a more intuitive understanding of exactly which points she was pressing and how those points relieved fatigue. A few more days of teaching should be enough. Su Jin lay on the small couch while Xingxing stood aside watching, eager to try it herself. She hesitated whether to ask Mrs. Wang to get up. Behind her, a small maid in a light green dress approached and said, "The Commandery Princess has something for you, so you must go." "Me?" Xingxing pointed at herself in surprise. The little maid nodded repeatedly. Xingxing looked confused. Why is she being summoned? Xingxing looked at Su Jin and said, "Miss, Princess Nanzhang wants me to go over." Su Jin frowned. Like Xingxing, Su Jin couldn’t think of why Princess Nanzhang would want Xingxing. But since someone was sent to call her, she couldn’t not let Xingxing go. Not knowing how long they’d stay at the Duke Mansion, she couldn’t accompany Xingxing every time someone summoned her; no way for a maid to lead the way with the master following behind. Su Jin nodded and said, "Go on, but hold your temper if anything happens, and come back to tell me." Xingxing had a quick temper, just the way she whipped at Chu Shun when she saw Su Chong being beaten. Xingxing nodded vigorously, "I promise not to cause any trouble for you, Miss." Watching Xingxing leave with the message maid. Su Jin’s mouth twitched. Why did she feel at ease when Xingxing didn’t promise, but a bit uneasy when she did? Leaving Agarwood Pavilion, the message maid took a different path. Xingxing frowned, "Aren’t you leading the way for me?" The message maid looked back at her with a hint of displeasure in her eyes. Both are maids, why should she show her the way? It’s not like she’s the Miss! Also, why did the Eldest Young Madam’s maid get a monthly salary of ten taels of silver?! "I have other messages to deliver," the message maid said. Xingxing knew the way to the Peony Garden, and since the message maid was busy, she went by herself. In Xingxing’s heart, the Duke Mansion would sooner or later belong to her Miss, there was no place she couldn’t go to, just unsure why Princess Nanzhang wanted her. Xingxing made her way to the Peony Garden. As she passed through the garden, something glinted and caught her eye. She glanced at the grass and saw a Purple Jade Bracelet lying there quietly. Purple jade is precious. She didn’t know who dropped it, being so careless and negligent. Xingxing lifted her foot and walked past the Purple Jade Bracelet. The maid in the shadows, "..." Watching Xingxing walk away. The little maid couldn’t help but come out from behind the big tree. The little maid’s delicate face looked somewhat puzzled. The Eldest Young Madam’s maid must not have eyes on her forehead, missing something so obvious. She ran over, quickly picked up the Purple Jade Bracelet. Inside the Peony Garden, Princess Nanzhang was eating a swallow’s nest. Xingxing entered and bowed, then looked directly at Princess Nanzhang. Her face showed no fear, just looking at her without saying anything. Mrs. Zhao saw this and got angry, she’d never seen such a bold maid! "How dare you! You think a maid can look directly at the Commandery Princess?!" Mrs. Zhao scolded. Xingxing frowned slightly, "Madam said looking people in the eye is showing respect." "This is the Duke Zhen Mansion! Not your Qingyun Mountain!" Mrs. Zhao snapped. Xingxing pursed her lips. Turned her back, showing Mrs. Zhao the back of her head. Mrs. Zhao, "..." Really, this maid was enough to make her feel weak all over with rage. Not allowed to look directly at Princess Nanzhang, she showed them the back of her head, with that neatly combed bun, Mrs. Zhao wanted to hit her with a brick. But it’s okay, soon this maid will see what’s coming for her. A little maid stepped forward and whispered to Mrs. Zhao’s ear, "She didn’t see the Purple Jade Bracelet..." Mrs. Zhao glared at the little maid angrily, "Didn’t you put it somewhere obvious?!" The little maid felt a bit wronged. She put it in a very obvious place, anyone could see it, it’s just that the Eldest Young Madam’s maid didn’t have her eyes open, couldn’t blame her for incompetence. Xingxing was getting impatient. Summoned her but wouldn’t let her look at Princess Nanzhang, didn’t say why she was summoned, just letting her stand here like a fool? There was only her to serve her Miss. Xingxing couldn’t hold back and turned back, "Miss is still waiting for me to serve her, if there’s nothing, I’ll go back first." Mrs. Zhao frowned, "No manners! Still calling her Miss, should be calling Eldest Young Madam!" "My Miss can’t be counted as your Eldest Young Madam yet, she and the Groom haven’t consummated yet," Xingxing said honestly. Princess Nanzhang frowned, "Haven’t consummated?" "The Groom’s health isn’t good, we have to wait for him to get better to consummate," Xingxing said. "Who said that?" Mrs. Zhao asked. "The Imperial Physician said it, the Groom’s health isn’t good, should avoid too much strain," Xingxing said. "..." "If not consummating because of the Imperial Physician’s advice to avoid strain, what’s the point of marrying her?!" Princess Nanzhang said angrily. Xingxing looked at her, "Wasn’t her marrying into the family supposed to bring good luck?" "My Miss isn’t in a hurry to consummate, so you all shouldn’t be rushing," Xingxing said. Xingxing appeared saying no one was more anxious than her Miss.
