Mrs. Meng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her nervous face. She held the wine glass and said, "Then I'll do it first as a courtesy. The county master invites you."
"Please." Xiao Lingyue raised the corners of her lips and watched her drink it all in one gulp.
Mrs. Meng really didn't know how to drink. She choked after one sip and her face turned red. She covered her mouth and coughed again and again, and looked at Xiao Lingyue helplessly.
Xiao Lingyue didn't hesitate when she saw this. She picked up the wine glass, raised her head and drank.
After finishing the drink, I turned the glass upside down. It was empty, not a drop was left.
"Ma'am, you should feel at ease now, right?" Xiao Lingyue said with a smile.
"Yes, yes..." Mrs. Meng nodded nonchalantly and glanced at her guiltily, "Then I won't disturb the county master. You drink slowly, I'll leave first..."
.”
"Walk slowly." Xiao Lingyue said.
Second Mrs. Meng turned around and left in a hurry. Her back looked like she was fleeing, and she felt a little relieved.
Xiao Lingyue looked at it quietly for a moment, then turned around and prepared to put down her wine glass.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a palace maid carrying sweet soup suddenly came over and accidentally bumped into her.
Xiao Lingyue had no time to hide, and a bowl full of sweet soup was spilled on her clothes, which soon became soaked through.
Xiao Lingyue frowned.
"My Lord, please forgive me! My Lord, please forgive me!" The little palace maid turned pale with fright, knelt down with a thud, and said shiveringly: "I didn't mean this, please forgive me..."
The ladies who were chatting and laughing next to him turned their heads and glanced at each other, all frowning.
"Why are you so careless?" A lady frowned when she saw Xiao Lingyue's appearance, "My clothes are so wet and the banquet is not over yet."
The palace maid was so frightened that her eyes were red and she did not dare to speak.
At this time, a palace maid in charge came over in a hurry, bent down and apologized, saying, "My lord, Anping County, I'm really sorry. It's because I didn't manage my subordinates well, and I frightened you."
Xiao Lingyue said: "It doesn't matter, it's just my clothes..."
She frowned and lifted her clothes, feeling speechless.
Regardless of whether the palace maid did it on purpose or not, the bowl of sweet soup was poured just right, all on her chest and skirt.
The sweet soup was slimy, and there were ingredients like white fungus in it, all hanging on the clothes. It looked terrible and it was obviously unwearable.
The maid in charge said apologetically: "If the county master doesn't mind, I can find you a pair of clean clothes to change into first. When the clothes are washed, you can change them back. What does the county master think?"
"Okay." There is no better way.
Xiao Lingyue could only nod.
"Thank you for your understanding. Please come with me." The lady in charge breathed a sigh of relief and immediately led her out.
Xiao Lingyue followed the maid in charge, left the waterside banquet silently, and walked to the side hall deep in Ganquan Palace.
The maid in charge lowered her head and led the way without speaking.
Xiao Lingyue looked at her surroundings as she walked, and found that she was getting further and further off the track. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said, "Where are you taking me?"
The maid in charge explained: "The county master doesn't know that Ganquan Palace was originally used as a place for royal hot springs to bathe. Several palaces in good locations have owners. The slaves have no right to take you in. You can only go inside and borrow them."
I have no owner to change your clothes in the side hall, please forgive me, the county master."
Xiao Lingyue smiled: "There is nothing that cannot be forgiven. This is a good reason."
It's so reasonable that you can't fault it at all.
The maid in charge said coquettishly: "The county master is joking... Please come here. I'll be here soon."
Xiao Lingyue said nothing more.
She was just a little curious. What exciting drama would be waiting for her when she arrived at the side hall?
Xiao Lingyue is not stupid. This chapter has been completed!
