2546 Lying in Wait



Qiao Mu was both amused and exasperated.

This Kang Prince Consort truly acted promptly on her thoughts.

After strolling around the plum blossom garden with the Kang Prince Consort, Qiao Mu helped the prince consort over to a gazebo to rest when she saw the latter getting tired.

However, without warning, a servant girl rushed out from next to the gazebo. She nearly ran into the Kang Prince Consort.

The elderly nanny accompanying the prince consort reacted swiftly from experience. She darted forward to block and pushed the servant girl away.

The elderly nanny was like a solid wall blocking in front of the prince consort and the young crown prince consort. She chastised with arching brows, "Whose servant girl are you to be this careless!"

The servant girl fell down on her behind and trembled all over. She hastily kowtowed with deference and cried, "Forgive this one, your eminence."

The Kang Prince Consort furrowed her brows and looked down at her stained embroidered shoes.

That servant girl had charged out all of a sudden. The moment she retreated back, she stepped into the flowerbed on the side. There was now dirt on her embroidered shoes. It was not very elegant.

That servant girl hastily kowtowed and said, "Allow this servant to bring your eminence to the Fang Pavilion at the corner for a change of shoes."

The Kang Prince Consort nodded.

Qiao Mu got up to accompany the prince consort there, yet that servant girl quickly crawled forward and urged, "This lady can remain here. That Fang Pavilion is very small, even smaller than an attic. There is barely space for two people to move."

The Kang Prince Consort looked coldly at that servant girl. "Why do you want the crown prince consort to remain here?"

There was no one without a clever mind in this vortex of power of influence. The Kang Prince Consort was such an intelligent person. She could see through the servant girl's intention at once.

The servant girl paled from fear. She stuttered, "No, no! Th-this sevant d-dares not harbor other intentions. It truly is because that Fang Pavilion is too small…"

The Kang Prince Consort gestured to the elderly nanny with her eyes. The latter rolled up her sleeves, about to walk over, but Qiao Mu stopped her, and looked profoundly at the servant girl. "Imperial Aunt, since someone insists that I remain here, I'll stay here and see."

She didn't want to waste the other person's effort in scheming.

"You child. Why do you have such curiosity?" The Kang Prince Consort rebuked her lightly. She nodded and said, "Then I'll go and be back soon!"

"Okay, I'll wait for Imperial Aunt here," the little fellow responded expressionlessly. However, this behavior was only adorable in the Kang Prince Consort's eyes…

Aiyo, she really wanted to squeeze the little lady's round face. She truly looked so adorable.

Qiaoqiao saw the Kang Prince Consort off, but she found it strange. Why did the Kang Prince Consort look so cheerful like she had been hit with a cuteness attack?

There wasn't anything cute here?

Qiaoqiao was actually a bit curious as to who had arranged such a bizarre show.

It was evident that that servant girl had no acting talent. She acted so obviously that she got seen through at once.

The person behind this used such a crude method to forcefully send the Kang Prince Consort away and keep her her. What did the person want?

The little fellow took out a steaming cup of spiritual tea from her inner world and sipped at it leisurely in wait.

She felt like this was like lying in wait.

Unfortunately, she was not a turtle, but a vicious wolf that feasted on flesh and blood!
