The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking

Ye Qingxuan sneered. "Why don\'t you drink it with me, Physician Xia?"

Xia Muqing\'s expression stiffened. There was so much Chinese Goldthread added in the medicine that she couldn\'t even take a sip.

She said, "I\'m not sick, why would I drink medicine?"

Ye Qingxuan said calmly, "Of course I need a person to test the poison in the food that I eat."

Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, Xia Muqing abruptly changed her tone. "Although good medicine is bitter, as a physician, I still have to listen to the patient\'s suggestion. I\'ll change the prescription again, haha."

She chuckled dryly before getting his approval in the form of a grunt.

Xia Muqing gritted her teeth silently. However, she had already taken her revenge just now.

She remained composed and quickly wrote a new prescription.

After staying in the manor for a few days, Xia Muqing felt that it was boring. So she informed the housekeeper and left the manor.

Ye Qingxuan didn\'t forbid her, so she managed to head out.

The housekeeper even handed her a bag of silver, claiming that it was arranged by King Zhennan.

Xia Muqing weighed the silver in her hand and raised her eyebrows in satisfaction. What was Ye Qingxuan up to?

She looked flattered and overjoyed.

This scene was also reported to Ye Qingxuan.

Ye Qingxuan smiled mysteriously. He didn\'t believe that the woman would be easily bought by a bag of silver.

Xia Muqing left the manor and rushed to the most famous teahouse in the capital.

Indeed, she didn\'t come out today for no reason. She had been missing for so many days, and the Xia family should have made their move too.

After walking for a while, she realized that someone was following her.

She stopped in her tracks and a second later, walked forward as if nothing had happened.

Needless to guess, it was definitely someone from King Zhennan\'s manor.

Ye Qingxuan might look approachable and easy-going, but that was only because she was useful to him now.

Once she lost her value, her ending would definitely not be good.

She knew that well and so, she was even more anxious to destroy the Xia family.

Xia Muqing walked into Xuanming Teahouse and saw a bustling crowd the moment she entered. There was no empty seat at all.

A waiter came up to welcome her and asked, "Miss, are you going to the main hall or the tea room on the second floor?"

Xia Muqing: "The tea room on the second floor."

The waiter placed the white cloth on his shoulder and shouted, "Sure! One in the tea room on the second floor!"

With him leading the way, Xia Muqing sat down beside the window. She beckoned to the waiter who was about to leave and asked, "Has anything major happened in the capital recently?"

After saying that, she took out an ingot of silver and placed it on the table.

The waiter took the silver and touched it with his hand. The smile on his face deepened, and his mouth was about to split open.

She said, "Miss, you\'re asking the right person. I don\'t claim to know every single thing that happened in the capital, but I know most of it."

Xia Muqing waited for the waiter to continue.

He didn\'t keep her in suspense. After praising himself for a while, he continued, "Recently, the most important thing that happened in the capital city is that the daughter of a minister outside the city has eloped with someone. And the son of the Cao family was killed."

The waiter noticed that she wasn\'t interested and so he continued.

"And the marriage between the daughter of the Xia family and Prince Yu…"

Xia Muqing raised her eyebrows. The waiter paused before continuing, "I don\'t know what went wrong with Prince Yu, but he fancies the third daughter of the Xia family. She is famous for being ugly in the capital city…"

Xia Muqing raised her hand to stop him from continuing. "Did the Xia family agree?"

A look of disdain flashed across the waiter\'s eyes. "In the beginning, the Xia family was the one who initiated the marriage. Everyone in the city knows that marrying their daughter to Prince Yu is equivalent to sending their daughter to death. The Xia family is really willing to sacrifice their daughter to be related to the royal family."
