Bab 580: 578

When Shangguan Wanru learned that Xiao'er had been kidnapped, she invited Fu Ranhui and others to visit her.

Xiao'er was teaching the maids about acupoints.

It was hot, and several ice basins were placed in the room. Upon entering, Shangguan Wanru felt the cool air and let out a breath of relief.

Xiao'er got up, paid respects to the two princesses, and said, "Why didn't you send someone to announce your arrival, I could have come to greet you."

"Today's weather is too oppressive, we didn't want you to exert yourself, so we came straight in." Shangguan Wanru said as she sat down, wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, and ordered the maids to fan her.

"The weather is indeed hot today; it's probably going to rain." Before a heavy rain, the weather usually becomes unusually oppressive.

Xiao'er asked the maid to bring over some chilled lemon honey and a fruit platter to cool them down.
