Pampered Consort of the Fragrant Orchard - Chapter 86.1

Chapter 86.1: Handing Over the Power (1)

Zhong Mei Qing couldn’t bear the smell, and quickly had the container shut, using one hand to pinch her nose and saying: “Why is it this smelly!?”
Du Xiao Li also used her hand to pinch her nose and replied, “Second mother, didn’t I tell you that
this medicine was rather smelly. You moved too quickly, I couldn’t even stop you in time.”
Du Yun Han also got assaulted by this smell. He looked to the container in Zhong Mei Qing’s hands with a disgusted look, “Xiao Li, is this really an antidote? How come I don’t know there’s even such a
smelly antidote?”
“Of course it is, the poison king’s antidotes have always been very strange. I even spent a really long
time to concoct this antidote!” Because Du Xiao Li was pinching her nose, even her voice somewhat
changed, “Second mother, you best let second sister quickly take the antidote.”
Zhong Mei Qing looked to the smelly antidote in hand and asked, “With it this smelly, would if be
eective on Xin’er?”
“Second mother, in the beginning, Imperial Physician and I both said that this antidote would be
very smelly. If you don’t believe me, you can go nd Imperial Physician Hu to come see whether or not that’s the antidote in your hand!” Du Xiao Li said in discontent.
“Since Xiao Li said this is the antidote, then it’s the antidote. What are you still hesitating for, quickly
let someone feed it to Ke Xin!” Du Yun Han said.
“Xiao Cui, take it and give it to your miss.” Zhong Mei Qing handed the container to Xiao Cui.
Xiao Cui, who was to the side, went forward and took the container. Opening it up, she saw a peanut sized pill inside. She gave Lu’er a meaningful glance. Lu’er poured a cup of water, and the
two of them fed Du Ke Xin the antidote.
“Wuu——”
Very soon, Du Ke Xin groaned a few times, as she creased her brows, and slowly opened her eyes.
Zhong Mei Qin, who was standing by the bed, upon seeing Du Ke Xin waking up, cried tears of joy. Using a handkerchief to wipe her tears, she leaned over and said, “Xin’er, you’ve awaken?”
Du Ke Xin blinked and looked to Zhong Mei Qing, weakly asking, “Mother, why are you here? What happened to me? My head hurts.”
“You got poisoned and was unconscious. You took the antidote just now and nally woke up.” Zhong Mei Qing explained.
“I was poisoned? Wasn’t I knocked unconscious?” Du Ke Xin asked in slight surprise. She
remembered her wanted to kill Du Xiao Li, but was stopped by Luo Fu, following which she was
knocked unconscious by him and didn’t wake up. Hearing Zhong Mei Qing say she was poisoned,
she still didn’t come to realization.
“What getting knocked unconscious, you were poisoned.” Zhong Mei Qing looked to Du Ke Xin and
asserted.
Du Ke Xin recalled the matter of Luo Fu kidnapping Du Xiao Li. That denitely was a secret, and she
also can’t say that she went to Swallow Mountain. Xiang Yu should’ve had her matter reported to
Zhong Mei Qing, that’s why Zhong Mei Qing was this assertive in saying that she was poisoned, so
as to avoid being discovered by the people in the room.
She turned her head to look around the room. Seeing Du Yun Han present, she slightly felt better
inside, but then turning to see Du Xiao Li next to Du Yun Han, the anger in her heart once again
shot up, as she shouted towards Du Xiao Li, “What are you doing here, you vixen, get lost!”
“Impudent! How can you speak to your younger sister like that!” Before Du Xiao Li could say anything, Du Yun Han already opened his mouth and berated.
“Father, she’s precisely a vixen. It’s not enough that she monopolizes Ding Wang, she even went to
seduce Ren Wang, stealing my husband! If she’s not a vixen, then what!?” Du Ke Xin hatefully looked
to Du Xiao Li and yelled.
“Second sister, although you’ve just woken up, and your brain still not fully conscious, you still need
to be responsible for spewing slander all the same!” Du Xiao Li said with a cold face.
“I’m spewing slander?! I heard it myself!” Du Ke Xin struggled to get up, and shouted towards Du
Xiao Li. Two streams of tears rolled down her face.
Seeing her daughter cry, Zhong Mei Qing quickly wiped her tears for her, asking: “What did you
hear? Say it, mother will help you!”
Du Ke Xin instantly threw herself into Zhong Mei Qing’s embrace, violently sobbing, “Mother, Ren Wang said he wants to marry this vixen as the main consort, he doesn’t want me anymore, wuu wuu, I originally was Ren Wang’s future main consort, but ever since Du Xiao Li returned, everything all changed! Ren Wang has always loved me very much, but now, wants to marry a countryside bumpkin, and completely ignores me. If not for her going to seduce Ren Wang, then what!? Just like
that her mother hers back then!”
“Pah——” Du Yun Han slammed against the table, and looked to Du Ke Xin, “What nonsense are
you saying?”
Seeing Du Yun Han get angry, Du Ke Xin hid into Zhong Mei Qing’s embrace.
Hearing Du Ke Xin talk about Su Su Xin, Du Xiao Li’s complexion grew even uglier. Her entire body emitted a cold air, as she coldly snorted, “Capable women put their thoughts on the man, only
incompetent women would have their thoughts on other women. You take Han Ming Hong as a
treasure, but to me he’s nothing more than a stud horse, I don’t even want to give him a glance. What he’s thinking, I don’t know, and why he said he wants to marry me, I don’t know either, but
instead of putting your thoughts on him, you came to blame me, really is laughable and pitiful! Moreover, that isn’t even your man!”
“You………..” Du Ke Xin came out from Zhong Mei Qing’s embrace, and looked to Du Xiao Li.
“Second sister, if you have time to think about these meaningless things, you might as well think about your current situation, and how you’re going to compete in the next few days! This smelly, don’t know if the academy will even let you participate or not!” After she nished jabbing Du Ke Xin’s wound, Du Xiao Li turned and left with Xia Yuan, not even giving a single glance to the people
in the room.
“Mother, what is she talking about?” Du Ke Xin heard Du Xiao Li’s words and turned to look at Zhong Mei Qing. Suddenly, she frowned and said, “Mother, what’s this smell in the room, why is it
this smelly? Quickly have the windows opened, and light the fragrant incenses!”
“Daughter, settle down, the windows and whatnot have all been opened.” Zhong Mei Qing
consoled, seeing that Du Ke Xin still having not realized this smell was coming from herself.
Du Ke Xin covered her nose with her hand and said, “Then why is it this smelly? This….the smell on my body?!”
Covering her own nose, she discovered that the smell became stronger. Carefully sning, she discovered that her hand was covered in the smell. She then snied the back of her hand, and nearly made herself throw up.
“Ah—–mother, what is this smell on me? Why is it this smelly?” Du Ke Xin, after conrming that this
smell was coming from her, instantly screamed out.
“Xin’er, don’t worry, this smell is only temporary, it’ll be gone very soon!”
“Look at yourselves, since there’s a smell on you, then just don’t go out. Just stay at home!” Du Yun Han looked them and shouted. Afterwards, he turned and left.
Seeing Du Yun Han angry, Zhong Mei Qing wanted to run after him, but seeing Du Ke Xin’s panicked
look, she restrained the impulse to leave, turning to console Du Ke Xin. “Xin’er don’t worry, this is
just the smell of the antidote, it’ll disperse in a few days!”
“How long is a few days?” Ke Xin Ke anxiously asked.
“Imperial Physician Hu said in ten days to half a month it’ll disperse.”
“What? Ten days to half a month? But the competition will start in nine days! How can I make it in
time? The teacher will denitely have my name removed!”
“Xin’er, you’ve been unconscious for more than three days. Right now, there’s only ve days until
the competition.”
“Ah——Quickly have the smell on me removed, removed!”
“Quick, send someone to go nd Imperial Physician Hu! Quickly go!”
