YM778.TV Chapter 936: Saving His Life
“What kind of tea is this? It tastes good.” Liu Xiang was used to getting along with Ye Muyu, so she was more at ease.
“This is fruit tea. With honey, it will be sweet.”
“Honey, no wonder. The princess usually drinks honey water too. It’s just that we don’t have the chance to buy it since we’re servants.” Liu Xiang was rather regretful.
“If you don’t mind, I can give you a bottle. Drink it in water every morning. It’s good for a girl’s skin.” Ye Muyu took a sip of tea.
“Honey is quite precious. Are you giving it to me directly?” Liu Xiang was a little embarrassed.
“It’s fate that we met. You don’t have to mind. My family cultivates honey too.”
“So your family is so powerful.” Liu Xiang looked at her in surprise. She thought for a while and asked, “I heard that your husband is also a student. He’s going to take the imperial examination. Is that true?”
Ye Muyu’s breath froze. She then remembered that Chu Heng had probably gotten the results by now. Perhaps the letter had already returned to the county. She wondered if her parents could hide it from her.
On her side, she still had to wait for Han Zhuang and the others to go back and get his letter, and then send her letter to Jing City.
“Yes, the results should be out. I wonder if the letter has arrived yet.”
“Ah, did he really participate in the examination this year?” Liu Xiang was slightly surprised and exclaimed.
“Yes.”
“Then you’re really lucky. If you pass, you’ll be an advanced scholar and can directly become an official.” Liu Xiang was really envious. She was just a servant after all. Although the princess treated her well, her temper really made her feel uncomfortable.
“Oh right, go back and comfort the princess. I think that the deputy general today is deliberately provoking the princess.” Ye Muyu quietly changed the topic to Zhang Miao.
Liu Xiang was slightly surprised. “Ah? But the princess saved Deputy General Zhang Miao before. He definitely wouldn’t lie to the princess.”
“Actually, I’ve long noticed that the Young General doesn’t like the princess. But as servants, how could we dare to tell the truth?”
Ye Muyu was a little surprised. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. “The Princess has saved Deputy General Zhang Miao before? Why is Deputy General Zhang Miao speaking so harshly? Logically speaking, he should be flattering her.”
“Eh, is this how it should be?” Liu Xiang was somewhat puzzled.
Ye Muyu was speechless. She could only give her an example and reason with her. “You see, as the princess’s personal maid, isn’t your first reaction to make the princess happy instead of angry?”
“What you said makes sense…” Liu Xiang thought about it carefully and felt that Zhang Miao’s behavior was not quite right. “But Deputy General Zhang Miao has always spoken to the princess like this.”
“You should pay more attention to him. What if he was sent by the Young General to provoke the princess?” Ye Muyu knew that it was useless to praise the Young General. She could only stand on the princess’ side and speak ill of him. Only then would Liu Xiang listen.
As expected, Liu Xiang stood up angrily. “You’re right. Zhang Miao has been by the Young Ggeneral’s side for so long. He must have a good relationship with the little general. Moreover, the princess saved him casually. She just didn’t want to be blocked.”
Liu Xiang told him how the princess had saved Zhang Miao.
Ye Muyu suddenly understood. “So Zhang Miao was bullied and almost killed. He happened to run into the princess when she was out. The princess gave an order and he survived. Then, for some reason, he entered the military camp.”
