《Fierce Legitimate Daughter》


 C1

    In the dead of night, the moon was gradually covered by dark clouds. It was as if a storm was brewing.


    Xi Family and her mother were currently whispering with each other. Suddenly, First Lady''s voice rose with a hint of sharpness: "Master is staying in that slut''s house again?"


    "Why does the Madame need to get angry at those people who can''t get on the stage? Madame was kind enough to not care about her, and allowed her to serve in front of Master, so she got pregnant. Since she doesn''t know what''s good for her and doesn''t know what''s good for her, why don''t we use that move ¡­ " old mother hurriedly appeased her anger. After serving First Lady for more than ten years, she knew how to appease his anger.


    "That''s right, we''ll use the same method to deal with that slut, Xi''er. No doctor will be able to find anything unexpected ¡­" First Lady let out a strange laugh, "As for that little bastard of hers, she originally wanted to torture her for a few more years before taking her life. Who would have thought that her body wouldn''t go through so much torture and would end up dead just like that?!"


    "With the powerful potions of ''Headache Mad'' and ''Berserk Powder'', even an adult would find it hard to resist, not to mention that she''s only sixteen years old." Mother said with a benevolent expression. It was hard to imagine the Buddha''s smiling face actually saying such heartless words, "The Great Miss''s method is still the best. Let the Prince Xian seduce her and then abandon her. Only then will we have a justifiable reason to go crazy.


    "Hu hu hu ¡ª ¡ª" Suddenly, a cold wind blew and the candle on the table flickered non-stop. The two of them thought that it was the wind outside, but they didn''t know that other than the two of them in the room, there was also a white-clothed, elegant and pale faced young lady standing behind First Lady. She was the dead ''Xi Jiu Er'', the bastard Xi Er that they spoke of!


    Her eyes turned red with desire. She wanted to skin the two sheep-covered wolves alive, she had always thought that they were really good to her. She never thought that one of them was the one who killed her, mother! She had been blind for so many years, treating her as though she was her mother''s murderer and treating her as her own mother. Heavens, what had she done?


    "First Lady... First Lady... The servant that served Ninth Miss, Liu Xiang, hanged herself ¡­ " A maid came to report outside the door.


    Liu Xiang... Liu Xiang... A maid who had taken care of him for ten years. Every time she suffered from a headache, she would always be her target of venting. She would always follow him without any complaints or regrets, not being able to chase him away. Did she hang herself? Did she hang herself? Silly girl, silly girl, didn''t I give you enough silver to eat? Why don''t you go? Why didn''t she leave the Xi Mansion?


    ''Bang! ''a loud sound echoed in the sky and a torrential rain fell.


    "Head... "So dizzy!" Xi Jiu Er felt as if her entire body had been crushed by a car, she did not have any strength left, and when she was conscious, she felt extremely dizzy.


    "Miss, are you alright?" Liu Xiang''s surprised and happy voice sounded out beside her ears. It was so intimate, so voice that made her want to cry. Hehe, Liu Xiang has already hanged herself, how could she have heard Liu Xiang''s voice? Unless they were all dead... Yes, they were all dead! She also had company on the Road to River Styx!


    "Liu Xiang!" With great effort, she opened her eyes, revealing a small, tender face. Her wet eyes were still filled with tears, and she clasped her hands together in a bow: "Thank god Miss has finally woken up, Amitabha, Amitabha!"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Xiang with an almost greedy gaze. Liu Xiang was still the same Liu Xiang, and she looked to be a lot younger than the Liu Xiang in her memories! Wait a minute, Liu Xiang looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old with a childish face. Looking carefully at her surroundings, this was not the path to the Yellow Springs. It was clearly the Agarwood Courtyard that she was most familiar with!


    Eh, isn''t that the blue and white porcelain vase I bought when I was thirteen? Wasn''t it already given to Xi Wan Feng, how could it still be here? An inconceivable idea came to her mind as she grabbed onto the still worshipping Liu Xiang: "What year is it this year?"


    "Miss, what''s wrong? This year is the fifteenth year of the Great Zhou Empire! "


    Jinyun fifteen years? Then, wouldn''t she meet the ''number one beauty in the Zhou Dynasty'' Prince Xian Mu Qiu Shui before long? Then, he fell in love with Mu Qiu Shui at first sight and insisted on being with him no matter what. He almost broke all ties with the Xi Family just for this. Then, he was abandoned, and used the First Lady to drug him ¡­ And then she started having headaches, and finally... Crazy ¡­ Then he died.


    He calculated step by step and linked the two rings. It was truly wonderful, truly wonderful. She was grateful that the heavens pitied her and allowed her to gain a new life. Since that was the case, she wouldn''t spare a single one of those who had hurt her before! First Lady, Prince Xian, and Xi Wan Feng, just you wait!


    "Miss, Master ordered for your courtyard to be closed for further thought. You are not allowed to leave." Liu Xiang asked in confusion, "Miss, what are you pushing the Great Miss for? In the end, you fell into the water yourself."


    That''s right, she had been playing with Xi Wan Feng in the pavilion all this year. Somehow, she had suddenly fallen into the water, and Xi Wan Feng had even pushed the blame of pushing her down, making her unable to refute anything. In the end, he was imprisoned by Xi Hong Sheng in the courtyard for half a month.


    In her previous life, she really thought that she had accidentally fallen into the water, and now it looked like she was definitely Xi Wan Feng framing her!


    In her previous life, she carried enmity towards First Lady and her children. Because of the Hundred Year Family, Xi Hong Sheng had two wives in his current family. Her actual wife was her mother, Song Xi''er. Because she had been unable to have children ever since she was married, she came back to the to take care of things in the Xi Family. She had given birth to two daughters and a son. As for Xi Jiu Er, she was the ninth oldest, born with her mother''s blood, and left her to die.


    Everyone had mistakenly thought that her mother died a blood death, who would have thought that it was a trick First Lady was known for!


    Xi Jiu Er had never had a mother since she was young, and they had only done it on the surface, in order to not leave any traces for her to know, that was all. She didn''t like the way the First Lady treated her and her children. She thought that she had taken everything that belonged to her and the mother, so she used all her methods to hate them.


    When she met Mu Qiu Shui and was firmly with him, everyone was against it. Only First Lady and the others supported her, and only then would she completely open her heart. Only now did he understand that the First Lady had been waiting for an opportunity ¡­


    Thinking about this matter, although she planned to teach Xi Wan Feng a lesson using her own method, how could she not know that she was being tricked?


    Half a month... Why didn''t she do something else for half a month? Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed. Didn''t you guys plan to let Mu Qiu Shui seduce you? Very good, let me see how your wishful thinking works!


    First Lady, just you wait.


    Changan Street was a place where merchants, officials, and nobles had to pass through in order to have fun. Here was the biggest brothel in the Great Zhou ¡ª Drunken Immortal Tavern! Inside it was the world''s most beautiful brothel ¡ª Shui Xian! This was the most chaotic place in the government and shopping mall in the world. Chang An Street was a place where even the current zodiac had to be wary of. It was not because of people, but because of complicated relationships!


    Some people really came here to have fun and play. Some people saw this place as their stepping stone to success. Some people were here to look for opportunities to make a fortune ¡­ Everything was played out one by one after nightfall. Staring at the fawning and fawning faces downstairs, Prince Xian raised his thin lips and revealed a disdainful smile.


    "Prince ¡­" A charming voice that went down to the bones rang beside his ears. Hua Kui Shui Xian moved his boneless body over, fiddled with a strand of hair with his slender white lustrous fingers, and stared fixedly at Mu Qiu Shui: "The scout reported that he received news that Feng Qing Cheng had arrived in the Great Zhou Empire!"


    Mu Qiu Shui''s eyes darkened. Feng Qing Cheng? The eldest son of the Feng Clan''s emperor? What was he doing in the Zhou Dynasty?


    "The women of the Xi Family have their own unique characteristics. As for the Great Miss ¡­ But, our Great Zhou Empire is famous for that oracle of the Esteemed Empress Dowager, who would dare to doubt us? As for the Mausoleum of Zhou''s beauty, it was publicly acknowledged as the prettiest in the entire Zhou Dynasty. Right now, the Mausoleum of Books was the most unsophisticated woman in the entire world, and they didn''t even have as much looks as my family''s maidservants ¡­ Hahaha ¡­ Does everyone agree! " The one who started the conversation was the empress dowager''s nephew. The empress dowager had always doted on this nephew of hers, and furthermore, he was the eldest son of the Xue Clan''s house. He would inherit the Xue Clan in the future.


    "Ha ha-ha, yes, yes! Young Master Xue''s words are extremely logical! "


    "Aiya, this Xi Family is born from a wife. When I went to visit Xi Family with my father, I saw Xi Wan Feng playing the zither. But who would have thought that when the next person played, it would be so unbearable to listen to. The devil music pierced the brain, and after asking the servant later on, she found out that she was the ninth ranked Ninth Miss! "


    "I heard my sister come back to say that not only was that Ninth Miss not as good-looking as elder sister, and not as learned, but even her heart wasn''t as good as elder sister''s. She even pushed people into the pond, her heart is truly vicious ¡­"


    Everyone started to discuss spiritedly, regardless if he was real or fake, or if he was exaggerated or not, it was better to just ingratiate himself with the Young Master Xue.


    Mu Qiu Shui: "Has Xi Family been making any moves recently?"


    Shui Xian smiled charmingly, looking incomparably charming. "Xi Family and Mubai are very close, I think it''s because I plan to send my daughter to the palace!"

 C2

    It was not strange at all. The eldest daughter and second daughter of the Xi Family were both born in the First Lady, and occupied first place in both the Zhou Dynasty as well as their appearance. Such a daughter would at least be second only to being a concubine in the palace. The key is... He was very close to the Mubai! This was interesting! Mu Qiu Shui rubbed his chin. The old thing, Xi Hong Sheng, was extremely cunning, he was definitely the one behind First Lady''s actions.


    The time was almost up. Shui Xian was the one in charge of the finale, Mu Qiu Shui sat on the imperial concubine''s bed and did not drink a single mouthful of wine. Everyone knew that the Prince Xian did not question politics, and she was publicly acknowledged as the Duke Xiao Yao. Only he knew what the responsibility on her shoulders was!


    "Creaak."


    This was his private room, and without his instructions, no outsider would dare to enter. If anyone entered without being stopped by the servant at the door, they would definitely be arranged by the Brothel Keeper. Mu Qiu Shui did not mind, only until his body started to produce a strange aura that permeated the air.


    A regular customer of a brothel, how could he not know what he had fallen for? Other than him, there was also a young servant from a brothel in the room. What was unforgettable was her pair of shiny black eyes. They were as dazzling as diamonds, causing her entire face to look alive.


    This man was Xi Jiu Er! The Xi Jiu Er who was as if he was two different people!


    Xi Jiu Er slowly walked over, as if she was a cat walking on the eaves of a house. Mu Qiu Shui, who looked up and down at the ''number one beauty of the Great Zhou'', was indeed a peerless person.


    "Prince Xian has good eyesight indeed!" Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly, she could not tell if these words were a compliment or a reprimand. In just a few words, Xi Jiu Er had already arrived in front of Mu Qiu Shui. The latter looked at the incense and mocked himself: "You''re really careless, to actually cause trouble."


    "Lady, what is your purpose? For money? Right? As long as I, Mu Qiu Shui can do it, I will give you whatever you want! " A stream of heat gradually rose from his body and spread throughout his limbs and bones, finally reaching his lower abdomen where it burned with a numbing heat! He could not help but guess that she was not a pervert, right?


    It was not unexpected for Mu Qiu Shui to guess that he was disguised as a man in disguise.


    "Ugh ¡­" "Ugh ¡­" A man''s voice came from under the bed. It sounded as if it was filled with emotion.


    Xi Jiu Er was charming and cunning, and her naughty words came out, "Tell me what would happen if the number one beautiful man, Prince Xian, and the man of the Zhou Dynasty, were to go to the Drunken Immortal Inn and cause a ruckus in every street and alley! That must be very interesting! "


    Mu Qiu Shui was still a member of the royal family, so if such a thing were to happen, he would definitely be scolded and his reputation would be tarnished. Reputation was nothing to Mu Qiu Shui, but he, who he could not tolerate the most, was actually with a man ¡­ Just thinking about it made him want to vomit!


    "Miss, I have no enmity with you, so why are you making fun of me like this?" Mu Qiu Shui''s eyes darkened, as though she did not hear anything, she opened the window: "It''s such a pity, if I had the time, I would definitely want to see whether you are under attack or not! As for why they were playing tricks on you, in the future, you ¡­ "Ahhh!"


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head, his expression frozen. Mu Qiu Shui''s incomparably tall body was already silently standing behind him, looking at her with a pair of long and narrow peach blossom eyes that seemed to contain a smile yet not a smile. "I''m afraid I have disappointed you ¡­" Before she could finish her cold words, she quickly reached out with her hand, intending to capture her!


    "Crap!" Xi Jiu Er dodged Mu Qiu Shui''s lightning fast attack, in her heart, she was very lucky, but luckily she reacted quickly, if not she would have been in deep trouble. However, she was sure that the other party was not the rumoured lazy Prince Xian who was powerless. He knew martial arts, and his martial arts could only be high no matter what! She looked around for the best escape route.


    "Don''t even think about leaving today!" When Mu Qiu Shui saw those eyes, he knew what the other party was planning. This medicine was too tyrannical, even he couldn''t control it anymore! He had to arrest her and torture her, ask who had ordered her to do this! He didn''t want to waste time talking to her, so he immediately charged towards her.


    How could Xi Jiu Er be his opponent? Mu Qiu Shui''s long and narrow eyes were as sharp as an eagle''s. "Speak, what is your goal?" At this time, the man on the ground came over like a snake and tightly hugged Mu Qiu Shui''s thighs. He was so frightened that Mu Qiu Shui, the man who was already a man, could no longer remain calm.


    In the blink of an eye, his head of hair flowed down like a waterfall, and his pretty face had an abnormal beauty to it. Under the moonlight, he saw a darkness that was even more gorgeous than the starry sky! Mu Qiu Shui held her hair band between his fingers. At that moment, he seemed to hear the sound of his own heart beating wildly.


    "Knock ~ ~ Knock ~ ~ Knock ~ ~ Knock ~ ~ Knock ~ ~"


    "Your Highness!" The guards pushed open the door in panic as they entered. Mu Qiu Shui sat on the imperial concubine''s bed and played with the hair band in his hands, a peculiar expression on his face. A unconscious man was quietly lying beside his feet ¡­ The guards all knelt down in unison. "This subordinate deserves to die. Please punish me, Your Highness."


    "Prince ¡­" Before Shui Xian''s panicked voice could fade, she had already rushed in, and seeing that Mu Qiu Shui was safe, she heaved a sigh of relief. She had smelled the spring medicine in the house, and wanted to open her mouth to find out that there were still people around, but had to send them away first: "What are you guys waiting for, hurry up and bring this man down, wait for your highness to interrogate him."


    "Yes sir!" The guards were not surprised at all by Shui Xian''s order. Shui Xian was the number one bodyguard under Mu Qiu Shui''s name, and her title was even higher than theirs. After the person left, Shui Xian realised that Mu Qiu Shui was playing with the hairband. Could it be that this was the clue? However, this hair band was the same as the one used by men. There was no difference.


    "Your Highness? What''s the matter with you? " Finally, Shui Xian could not resist and asked. This man''s current appearance was something she had never seen before. Her heart was flustered. She didn''t know why, but she felt that the man in front of her was somehow different.


    He put the headband back into his pocket, stood up and said: "I''m leaving, keep an eye on this place, especially the location of Feng Qing Cheng, you need to find out, understand?" His voice was like a thousand-year-old ice, carrying with it an irresistible command. The moment he left his room, he reverted back to his usual contemptuous, hedonistic attitude, "Yes." Shui Xian said with a stern face.


    Night was falling into a deep sleep like a baby, Xi Jiu Er followed the same route back. Although she took the antidote, she had also ingested a lot of medicine, and logically speaking, she should have been exhausted after the battle just now, but she was currently brimming with energy, her entire body was burning red like fire, regardless of whether it was her mental or physical, she urgently wanted to make contact with a man! She thought she would go mad without a man!


    "Miss, what''s wrong?" A voice that was like the spring wind came from above his head. Xi Jiu Er raised her head and borrowed the moonlight to see a face that was as shocking as the heavens! Her face was like jade, her lips like a tree. Her white robe was even brighter than the moonlight, and in that instant, it was as if she saw a goddess stepping on the moon! She had to admit that this man was slightly better than the Prince Xian.


    Under the moonlight, the pretty and delicate rouge on Xi Jiu Er''s face had already drunk up. Her lips that had turned red like a blooming poppy flower in the middle of the night, was extremely captivating! The man in white narrowed her eyes slightly. The girl let out a breath and murmured softly, like a lover, "Nothing much, just a little uncomfortable."


    How did her voice become like this? Soft and coquettish! Maybe it was because of the tyrannical aphrodisiac, but Xi Jiu Er''s charming expression and smile appeared from the bottom of her heart! The white-clothed man''s eyebrows jumped. Could it be that ¡­ his whereabouts had been exposed? Was this a beauty trap he had arranged for himself?


    "Where are you feeling uncomfortable?" The white-robed man walked over with a concerned expression. He was caught off guard by the scorching heat of her body as he held her arm! But in the blink of an eye, the white-clothed man was on the ground as Xi Jiu Er pounced on him. That burning hot delicate body stuck close by, and those eyes that were tainted with good name actually made him absent-minded for a moment, as he was almost unable to extricate himself from it.


    Men! Men! When she was about to throw the man in front of her down, all her rationality collapsed in an instant!


    The man in white raised an eyebrow as he felt around him. She did this a lot? In the blink of an eye, he had rejected this idea. Under the dim moonlight, his smooth arms were covered with a red gesticulating sand that was exceptionally eye-catching. He squinted his eyes as he started to doubt whether this man was an assassin or not! Were they waiting for an opportunity?


    "Ugh!" The man let out a voice that seemed to be neither pain nor joy. Despite his vast experience, he couldn''t help but stare dumbfoundedly at the woman sitting on top of him. Her hands moved up and down, even though they were very clumsy ¡­ He took a deep breath. He was sure she wasn''t a killer! Then she ¡­ Damn it, she might have been under aphrodisiac!


    He had always thought that all of this was a beauty''s scheme, so he hadn''t thought in this direction ¡­ Now it seemed like ¡­ Heavens, her technique was really good. Even her small hands were able to make him feel like he wanted to die!


    In order for Xi Jiu Er to become an unrestrained and dissolute woman, she had actually found her "quite a few good things". How could Xi Jiu Er know what they were? She was only doing it out of a memory in her head.

 C3

    This man was the son of the Wind Nation Emperor that Mu Qiu Shui had spoken of, the prince who had been raised outside the palace by the empress ever since he was young! Xi Jiu Er had treated him as an ordinary official in the Great Young Master, so how could she have known that he was actually the Wind Nation''s famous'' Civil Prince ''?! If she knew about this, she wouldn''t have wanted to have anything to do with him even if she was beaten to death!


    "Hiss ¡­" Xi Jiu Er gasped. So painful!


    Seeing the woman''s originally bright red face revealing such a painful expression, even Feng Qing Cheng would never have predicted that he would one day be with an unfamiliar woman ¡­ If others were to know of this, they would definitely become a laughingstock!


    With a ''thump'', the Charming Wind City suddenly turned dark, and then entered into the endless darkness.


    Xi Jiu Er propped up his trembling legs and disappeared into the night. Just now, she had taken the opportunity when Feng Qing Cheng had reached the peak of his emotions to knock him out. He hoped that everything on Mu Qiu Shui''s side would go smoothly, and that he would not let down the pain of her losing her body.


    It was already late in the morning when they returned to the Xi Family''s backyard. The entire mansion was abnormally quiet!


    Of course, this was only on the surface. Some dirty things were quietly happening in the dead of night!


    For example, just as she was fumbling for the wall, she heard a woman''s voice coming from the bamboo forest beside her. It sounded like it came from someone who knew what was going on inside. Another man''s voice called out ''Third Wife''? Xi Jiu Er was stunned!


    Third Wife? Xi Hong Sheng''s most beloved Madame had given birth to three s, and was also the eldest son of the Xi Mansion. Unfortunately, they were born as concubines, and the direct descendants were the four Young Master s! and Third Wife''s discord had always been widely acknowledged in the household. The First Lady had talented children, the Third Wife had Xi Hong Sheng''s love, and their eldest son. The difference in power between the two sides of the family wasn''t that great.


    This Third Wife is really brave, to actually dare to follow a servant with Xi Hong Sheng''s care ¡­ With Xi Hong Sheng''s personality, even if he doesn''t die, he would at least be skinned off! Men try their best to please... Third Wife''s tender smile ¡­ A unique aura permeated the air.


    The two of them were probably going to come out soon. If they wanted to return, they had to pass through this road! If he was ever discovered, he could be killed by the Third Wife!


    "Crack!" His legs trembled as he stepped on a broken branch. The tranquil night was immediately broken by a nervous atmosphere! Xi Jiu Er heard Third Wife''s trembling voice: "Who is it? "Who, who''s there?" Xi Jiu Er immediately flipped over the wall, and in that short moment, under the moonlight, she saw a shadow where a servant stood, the red flowers on her shoes were extremely eye-catching.


    Liu Xiang guarded the courtyard fearfully like an ant walking around on a hot pan. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned her head and sure enough, it was her own Miss. What''s the matter with you? Did the wound on my leg recur!? "


    Xi Jiu Er allowed her to support him into the room, and the look in her eyes told Liu Xiang to sit down and say what she wanted to say.


    Xi Jiu Er rolled up her sleeves and revealed her smooth arms for Liu Xiang to see. Liu Xiang had waited many years and instantly saw what was missing from this arm. If a woman lost her concubine, then she would lose her innocence. Her innocence was like a woman''s life. If a woman lost her concubine, then she would have no life to live.


    "You have to keep this a secret for me! You know what happens if people find out about this secret. "


    Liu Xiang also knew what losing guard sand meant, and immediately promised Xi Jiu Er: "Don''t worry Miss, I definitely won''t let a third person know!"


    The next morning, an old woman opened the gate of the courtyard before the ban could be lifted. The old woman''s face was fierce, and her build was as big as a man''s. She laughed out to please the man: "Ninth Miss, the old Madame wants you to go over."


    The old Madame did not like his daughter-in-law much, indirectly disliking her granddaughter Xi Jiu Er. Reportedly, it was because she had once killed the maidservant that the old Madame sent to her, hence the old Madame hated this daughter-in-law who did not give him face.


    The Old Madame''s courtyard was located in the eastern courtyard of the Xi Mansion, and the western garden where Xi Jiu Er lived in practically circled around the entire Xi Mansion. Even if she slowed down, Xi Jiu Er would still not be able to keep up.


    "Does old mother know why Grandmother called me?" Xi Jiu Er was no longer that ignorant girl from his previous life. Old Madame would definitely have something good when he called her over, and it might not be good for her. She took a breath and was prepared.


    old mother chuckled, she was also an intelligent person: "This old servant doesn''t know, this old servant only knows that First Lady came to pay his respects early in the morning, and after a while, he called a young servant in, and afterwards, Third Wife came to pay his respects. No one has come out yet."


    Xi Jiu Er let Liu Xiang give her a tip, Liu Xiang did not know that the reward was not enough, in the past, Xi Jiu Er would not do such a thing, so she gave him a bit of silver from the memory that she had seen Xi Wan Feng and the rest giving to the servants, it could be considered quite a sum.


    old mother did not expect to get the silver today, it was truly an unexpected fortune, she immediately received it happily, and said softly: "I heard that old Madame is very unhappy, Ninth Miss should be careful not to anger old Madame."


    "I know." Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly, but in her heart she was thinking, could it be that the secret relationship between Third Wife and the servants has been discovered? Suddenly, she thought of the night. Other than her, there was another person hiding in the shadows ¡­ But why did she call him here? Could it be ¡­ The other party had also seen him? It was very possible.


    After arriving at the Old Madame Courtyard, Xi Jiu Er was invited by a servant into her room. After all, she was trained in the Old Madame''s courtyard, so she understood the rules and said respectfully, "Ninth Miss is here, Old Madame is waiting for you inside."


    The Ninth Miss seemed to be different from before. In the past, whenever she heard the three words "Old Madame", she would be so scared that she would start trembling, not to mention the Old Madame''s courtyard. Seeing the calmness today, the servant girl could not help but raise the curtain.


    Liu Xiang followed behind her master and did not dare to breathe too loudly. She obediently followed Xi Jiu Er inside the house and bowed to him. She lowered her head and did not dare to look any further, as she heard Xi Jiu Er speak with a somewhat innocent and cute voice: "Sun Wife greets Grandmother, mother." Her voice had a kind of calming charm...


    Liu Xiang was no longer nervous as she gradually calmed herself down and said respectfully: "Servant greets Old Madame, First Lady."


    When Xi Jiu Er bowed, she glanced over and saw Third Wife kneeling on the ground in a sorry state. Her pretty face was snow-white, her eyes revealed fear, and she looked over with a desperate gaze. A man in the uniform of a manservant was kneeling with her. His face was covered in sweat that resembled the rain, and he was trembling uncontrollably.


    The old Madame of the Xi Family was dressed in a dark red flowery robe. His right hand fiddled with the buddhist beads and her left hand placed on the table. Seated on the right side of his hand was a very young woman. She was holding a handkerchief to her mouth and coughing softly.


    Behind the First Lady stood a old mother who was around the same age as the Old Madame.


    "That''s right, we''ll use the same method to deal with that slut, Xi Er. We''ll definitely make sure that no doctor will be surprised by us ¡­" As for that little b * tch of hers, she originally wanted to torture her for a few more years before taking her life. Who would have thought that her body wouldn''t go through so much torture and would end up dying just like that?


    "With such a powerful medicine like ''Headache Insanity'' and ''Insanity Powder'', even an adult would find it hard to resist, let alone a girl who''s only sixteen years old. It''s better to have the Great Miss seduce her and then abandon her. Only then would he have a justifiable reason to go crazy. Who knows what he would do if he went insane. "


    This was the first time she had seen First Lady and Wang Ma ever since she was reborn. She lowered her eyes to hide the hatred in her eyes, to the point where it made her feel obedient.


    The old Madame raised an eyebrow, the same thought as the old First Lady, was this Xi Jiu Er? Why is it different from before? His conduct and speech were well-behaved, and she did it well. Upon entering the door, her facial features could be seen to be as beautiful as a painting. But today, she was extremely obedient, and actually took the initiative to shout ''mother''!


    "Jiu Er, hurry up and get up. I called you here to ask you something, what happened last night, why don''t you tell me in detail about it to mother and mother?" The old Madame did not speak. Xi Jiu Er did not know if she was too lazy to speak to him or not!


    On the contrary, the first one to ask was First Lady, he was extremely happy when he heard the name ''mother''. He looked at Third Wife with an indistinct gaze, and the corners of his dark red lips slightly curled, as if he was watching a good show.


    On the other hand, Third Wife was kneeling on the ground with his head lowered and did not move an inch, no one could see his expression.


    When she heard First Lady''s gentle and gentle voice, she felt goosebumps all over her body. She carefully thought back to her previous life''s memories regarding Third Wife, and felt that she had died from sickness, and then unintentionally heard her servants say that Old Madame had poisoned her to death. It was because she had been found out through a secret relationship with her servants.

 C4

    "Truly shameless, and you even said that you were going to visit the Ninth Miss. So you''re just watching the western courtyard do that sort of thing."


    "Not only that, she even arranged for Ninth Miss to be adopted under her name. Don''t forget that Ninth Miss is her direct descendant, she is just a concubine, even if Old Madame doesn''t like her, she would definitely not accept her as her concubine. Rumors say that Xi Mansion has no rules."


    Xi Jiu Er looked deeply into the eyes of the Third Wife, and smiled towards her First Lady: "When I returned to the mother, Third Wife came to visit my daughter last night, and coincidentally met this thief with ill intentions, which saved my daughter''s life. At that time, servant Liu Xiang was resting in her room and did not feel bad, so she thought that no one would know about this, but she did not expect that ¡­ People will know about it! "


    On the surface, Xi Jiu Er''s words seemed to care about the girl''s reputation and integrity, but in reality, she was saying that someone was monitoring the movements of the Third Wife.


    Third Wife, who was no different from a dead person, suddenly raised his head and stared at Xi Jiu Er as if he was struck by lightning. How could she know what she had said?


    Could it be that she had planted some people in the Old Madame''s courtyard? Impossible! In order to prevent this matter from getting public, the First Lady did not want to offend the Old Madame, so she used the reason of finding her to be trapped here, interrogating her in private. Even the servants in the courtyard did not know what was going on, as the people in the house were the Old Madame and the rest.


    Forget about how Xi Jiu Er found out for now, Third Wife seemed to have resurrected from the dead. She spoke out with her sweet tongue like a lotus, "Old Madame, First Lady heard it now. Everything I said was true. I will go up to look last night ¡­" Pa! The old Madame used a bit of strength from her finger on the table, blocking the Third Wife from moving further.


    Third Wife''s pupils shrank, and his body trembled. The old Madame seemed to be warning her not to act rashly. She had already seen through her little trick. The old Madame raised her head, looked deeply into Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, and said with a rich and imposing voice. "Tell me, what did Third Wife tell you last night." Third Wife wants her daughter to adopt me under her name, but her granddaughter doesn''t agree. I''m a dignified direct descendant of the Xi Mansion and she''s my concubine. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, her expression did not seem to be anything amiss, but Third Wife was still in a panicked state and luckily managed to escape, as if she had revived from the dead.


    The reason why the two of them would appear in the Western Courtyard was not because they had a relationship, but because she wanted to take Xi Jiu Er under her name when she saw that Xi Jiu Er was in front of her. Seeing that the two daughters of First Lady were both talented and extremely envious, she gave birth to such a thought.


    The words had already been said, but this confrontation still couldn''t be exposed? The Third Wife viewed Xi Jiu Er as her savior right now, and since this matter was between two people, she had nothing to be afraid of.


    The old Madame was gloomy. Xi Jiu Er had never left the house of the young miss, but the young servant had already said so in front of him.


    Third Wife was Xi Hong Sheng''s concubine and she gave birth to her eldest son. After getting married, she had already grasped onto a man''s heart, so it was obvious that she wasn''t a brainless woman. If she was intelligent, how could she have made such a mistake? Even if Third Wife were to really steal someone, the old Madame would definitely think of a way to erase this matter. The reason was simple, Third Wife''s family brother would be promoted this year!


    The old Madame was thinking for the entire Xi Mansion, and the First Lady was naturally thinking for himself, so Xi Jiu Er guessed that the old Madame must be planning to turn the situation into a piece of cake. If she really wanted to do something to the Third Wife, the old Third Wife must have already been grounded.


    "Grandmother, this young servant is blabbering nonsense, he even has obscenities from his mouth, hurry up and drag him out of the mouth, so that he can continue slander others in the future. If the servants were to hear it, they would probably cause an uproar outside. " Xi Jiu Er spoke very quickly and skillfully, and her lack of warmth made others unable to help themselves from calming down and listening carefully: "I would like to ask, Third Wife has a father''s favor, what does he want to follow a servant for? Was it just a moment of happiness that made her foolishly abandon her eldest brother? Abandon Xi Family''s reputation? Disregarding his parents'' dignity? "In the end, I''m afraid that this boy has been bewitched by someone ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er changed the topic and asked the First Lady: "mother, Grandmother, what kind of damned servant is talking about him in front of mother''s ears? "It''s better not to keep this slut by your side, lest you listen to slanderous words."


    Even she was afraid of this old Madame, but Xi Jiu Er did not have the slightest bit of fear towards the old Madame. Instead, he was sharp-tongued, and his thought process was extremely clear, causing her to have a whole new level of respect for him.


    She thought that this Ninth Miss knew how to throw a tantrum.


    The person that he had never placed in his heart before was now actually questioning him in front of the old Madame. How could such a humiliating person like the First Lady get away with it? The hand in his sleeves formed into a fist, just as First Lady was about to say something, the old Madame nodded with a face of agreement: "That''s right, this mansion should be reorganized, it''s also about time for Feng''er and Rong Er to use the Engagement, if there is such a servant who can ruin this mansion''s reputation, how can the marriage go awry?"


    First Lady was still trying to chase after this matter, but when he saw the look on the old Madame''s face, he was shocked and enlightened. The old Madame was telling her that she should put this matter aside for now. In the first talented girl of the Great Zhou, the two most beautiful girls both came from the Xi Family, wouldn''t it be a pity if they didn''t scheme properly?


    First Lady was unwilling, but after thinking about it, he realized that the two of them had been fighting for many years, and did not care about the matter at all. In the end, it was still about his daughter''s marriage that was the most important, and after thinking it through, he said: "What mother said, your daughter-in-law will settle it properly later." She also used this reason to gain some benefits.


    "Little girl, you are normally crazy and don''t have any proper manners. But today, you see that it''s different from before. Could it be that I want you to reflect on yourself and come to a conclusion?" The old Madame''s expression slightly relaxed, a pair of wise eyes that had been settled over the years firmly locked onto Xi Jiu Er''s face, as if she was trying to take in all of her expressions.


    Xi Jiu Er calmly welcomed the old Madame with clear eyes, and in the silence, there was a sense of confidence: "When I return to the Grandmother, my granddaughter will reflect on herself everyday in the western courtyard for the past few days, and only now did she suddenly realize the preposterous things she had done in the past. The previous Jiu Er no longer exists, and the person standing here now is the new Jiu Er.


    Where could one find even the slightest trace of his former self in this manner and this charm? It seemed like he had really figured it out.


    The old Madame turned around and looked at Third Wife, "The matter has already been settled. This matter has nothing to do with you.


    The Third Wife was overjoyed, "Thank you, Old Madame, for fulfilling my wish."


    mother of joy''s voice came from outside: "This damned servant offended Old Madame, so I threw him into the unmarked cemetery."


    "mother of joy, what did this dog slave do to make Grandmother so angry?" A commotion came from outside, Xi Jiu Er thought to herself that they had arrived really quickly. A young girl, who was looking forward to it, walked in with a smile on her face. She was about fourteen or fifteen years old.


    Xi Wan Rong was truly a devastatingly beautiful woman, probably even more so when she blossomed in the future. Although she was not as pretty as Xi Wan Rong, she was still a beauty. She was about the same as the First Lady, which was the first talented girl of the Great Zhou Empire.


    "Grandmother, what is that dog slave doing to make you so angry? Rong Er will definitely teach him a lesson." Xi Wan Rong asked innocently, her sky-blue dress was flying like a butterfly beside the old Madame. Holding onto the old Madame''s hand, she laughed and asked, her gaze sweeping across the room, stopping on Xi Jiu Er''s body. Her face was filled with astonishment.


    "Little sister, don''t be so rude." After all, Xi Wan Feng was the eldest daughter and the direct descendant. Compared to the lively and cheerful Xi Wan Rong, she was much more calm and steady, and obediently bowed as she greeted: "Granddaughter greets Grandmother, mother."


    First Lady was originally in a bad mood, but now that she saw that her two daughters were feeling better, what did she, Third Wife, have? Isn''t it just having a son? So what? Isn''t it still a concubine? She was the legitimate Young Master, and not only that, she had two daughters who were already famous.


    Xi Wan Rong pouted her charming lips: "Aiyah, I forgot it when I see Grandmother, Grandmother will not argue with Rong Er for this empty gift, is it not Grandmother?"


    In the blink of an eye, it was the old man who thought that he was loving his granddaughter, so he pretended to be helpless and said, "You are almost at the age of a Engagement, and you are still so young. What should I do when I get married in the future?"

 C5

    An extremely beautiful man suddenly flashed across Xi Wan Rong''s mind. Only such a person could match up to him. However, he continued, "Aiya, Grandmother is teasing Rong Er again ¡­ Eh, this little bitch Xi Jiu Er ¡­ " Xi Wan Rong, who was at the side, had her mouth shut immediately after being pinched by Xi Wan Feng who was neither light nor heavy, and the ''person'' was removed. She immediately realized that this was the house of the old Madame. No matter how much the old Madame pampered him, she couldn''t be this unruly.


    First Lady immediately took over her daughter''s words and laughed, "Your ninth sister, why aren''t you greeting your ninth sister here?"


    Xi Wan Rong and Xi Jiu Er had similar personalities, in a single day, they had made so much trouble in Xi Mansion, but the one who had the upper hand was most likely Xi Wan Rong, not to mention, her own mother was still the First Lady? As for Xi Jiu Er, what does she have, other than a grandpa who was a high ranking official, she had nothing.


    "Jiu Er greets Big Sister Feng, Elder Sister Rong." Xi Jiu Er bowed submissively with a face full of guilt and regret, "Big Sister Feng and Elder Sister Rong shouldn''t be angry at Jiu Er anymore. In the past, Jiu Er always had a temper when she was young.


    Only then could she get what she wanted! Xi Wan Feng, you were the one who planned to harm me back then, and you, Xi Wan Rong, are also not a good person either. This pair of sisters, just you wait. Whatever you give me, I will make you pay ten times the price.


    When Xi Wan Feng entered the room to exchange meaningful glances with the First Lady, she saw that the Third Wife was safely sitting on the chair, and she seemed to be extremely surprised, but she quickly covered it up. Now, hearing Xi Jiu Er''s words, she was more or less surprised, was Xi Jiu Er really reflecting on himself?


    Xi Wan Rong blurted out: "Who wants to be happy with you?"


    "Rong Er, don''t talk like that." Old Madame''s face darkened as she scolded Xi Wan Rong. Although Xi Jiu Er didn''t really like her, the words that came from her heart, naturally made her think of peace, especially when two enemies tried to calm her down.


    Xi Wan Rong felt extremely wronged. The old Madame had actually scolded him for the sake of Xi Jiu Er, the bitch. This was something that had never happened before. But she had already learnt how to please the old Madame, so she quickly said: "Grandmother, Rong Er knows, Rong Er is just joking with Little Sister Jiu Er."


    "We''re all family, why are you being so courteous?" Xi Wan Feng smiled widely, but instead, it was Xi Wan Rong''s eyes that were glued to the other party''s body. A pair of eyes rolled around and continuously sized Jiu Er up from top to bottom, while the latter just stood there and allowed the other party to freely size him up.


    Third Wife was elated that she had escaped this calamity. She didn''t want to see her two outstanding daughters get in the way, so she stood up and bid her farewell. Xi Jiu Er bowed and left right behind him. Once he left the old Madame''s courtyard, the servants would have to leave, and the servant would have to leave for the time being, before speaking in a serious tone: "I am unable to repay the grace of saving my life today. If Ninth Miss needs me anywhere, I will do my best."


    "It is more important that you think of a way to protect your life. Don''t think that the Grandmother knows nothing at all. She clearly knows in her heart that for the sake of Xi Family''s reputation, she would have to worry about your family''s power for the time being. Xi Jiu Er reminded Third Wife, the enemy of the Third Wife is my friend. The Third Wife and the First Lady have fought secretly for so many years, but she is not a normal person.


    Thinking back to the reaction of the old Madame, she had indeed planned to let her go for now, when the time was ripe she would only be afraid of her ¡­ Third Wife gnashed her teeth: "Hmph, this time, it should be enough to wake me up. I won''t let them catch my weakness again."


    After separating with Third Wife, the quiet Liu Xiang could finally heave a sigh of relief, and almost collapsed on the ground. With a pale face, she continued, "So dangerous, Miss, you nearly scared Servant to death. Third Wife did not come to our courtyard, why are you saying the same thing as Third Wife? "


    "I guessed." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly.


    "Little bitch, stop right there." Xi Wan Rong''s delicate voice came from behind, the master and servant both turned to see Xi Wan Rong bringing the servant''s breath over, looking at them with contempt and uncertainty: "It''s really different from before! "But a slut is still a slut. No matter how much you change, you won''t change the essence of a slut if you don''t have someone raising you."


    "Elder Sister Rong, you call me a slut, I think you are the one who is slut. Although my mother has passed away and no one has raised me up, a cultured you might not change the essence of a slut. You, other than buying things in front of Grandmother, what else would you do? " Xi Jiu Er''s eyes flashed and the corner of her clothes flickered behind the fake mountain. Her dark green color made her think of the mother of joy.


    "Elder Sister Rong, Jiu Er really wants to live in harmony with you and Big Sister Feng. What''s wrong with our family living in harmony with each other? In the past, when I was ignorant, I would always cause trouble at home, causing Grandmother and mother to worry and break their hearts. But now that I don''t do it, I will definitely be obedient. " Xi Jiu Er''s face was full of guilt, looking like she was blaming herself.


    Xi Wan Rong scoffed, "Do I want to live in harmony with you? In your dreams, I hate your arrogant appearance the most. Do you really think you''re the direct descendant of the Miss? Sister and I are the ones who are, who do you think you are, hmph! " Xi Wan Rong rolled his eyes and laughed: "If you kneel and beg for mercy, I can believe your words, but we can get along peacefully."


    Xi Jiu Er sucked in a deep breath fiercely, "Is what you said true? As long as I kneel down and beg you, we can get along with each other.


    Xi Wan Rong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Of course I mean what I say. What, are you just saying those words?" She was sure that Xi Jiu Er was a person who would kneel to her? How is this possible? Unless someone was holding her down... Hmm, this method is not bad.


    "Alright. I kneel! " Xi Jiu Er fell to her knees with a ''plop'' sound, and everyone stared dumbfoundedly at Xi Jiu Er. Liu Xiang shrieked even more, "Miss, you, what are you doing!?"


    The entire manor knew that Xi Jiu Er was very stubborn. Even the old Madame had a headache. Xi Jiu Er was not stupid, in order to reach her goal, what could she not do? She was only kneeling, and the real winner was the one who walked all the way to the end.


    Xi Wan Rong actually wasn''t able to react, the astonishment on her small face gradually changed into the pride of a victor. Clear and sweet laughter came out of her cherry lips, yet the words she spat out were not the least bit out, "Xi Jiu Er, you aren''t really dumb, are you? Do you really think that if you kneel like this, I will make peace with you? Stop daydreaming. "Humph!"


    "No matter what your attitude is, I don''t mind. I was ignorant before, it was my fault." Xi Jiu Er''s attitude was extremely sincere: "Elder Sister Rong, please forgive Jiu Er."


    "Miss, you, you ¡­" Liu Xiang wanted to pull Xi Jiu Er up, but she was a servant. If the rules were messed up, the Second Miss would definitely have a weakness, and she would definitely learn to be smart. Although she did not know the intentions of her own Miss, she would unconditionally trust her no matter what the Miss did.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up, and her expression was completely different from before. Even her attitude had changed by a hundred and eighty degree, "Since Elder Sister Rong is unwilling to forgive me, then forget about it. In the end, I''m not willing to shake hands with you. Stop teasing me. Although an ordinary wife has the word ''wife'', in reality, she is only slightly more noble than a noble concubine. Take my grandfather for example. He is a dignified second rank official. What about your grandfather? Pfft, you think you''re a scholar, yet you still think you''re one.


    Xi Jiu Er''s change in attitude was so fast that Xi Wan Rong could not react at all. When he could react, he heard the angry words that struck his heart, she boasted that she was nobler than Xi Jiu Er in birth, a motherless child, a child that was not favored by the family, she was thousands of miles away from him. She only thought that the thing that she was proud of had been utterly defeated by Xi Jiu Er''s attack.


    Because what Xi Jiu Er said was the truth!


    "Xi Jiu Er, see if I don''t teach you a lesson today, or call you Xi Wan Rong." Judging from his posture, he was most likely using the common face-scratching technique and the Palm Art.


    Liu Xiang thought for a bit and did not think too much about it. "Ahhh!"


    Xi Wan Rong immediately slapped over his almond eyes and cursed: "Dog slave, you have no business here, get out of the way of this great Miss, or else I''ll beat you up too."


    Seeing Liu Xiang being slapped, Xi Jiu Er did not think too much before pulling out the hairpin and taking a step forward to press it against Xi Wan Rong. The tip of the hairpin was extremely close to her tender and fair skin, and if one was not careful, it would pierce through. Xi Wan Rong only cared about his appearance the most, he immediately tensed up and did not dare move even the slightest bit, and scolded: "Little bitch, what are you trying to do!"


    "If you dare to even touch a single hair of our Miss, Servant will immediately report it to the old Madame." The servant was so scared that she did not even dare to breathe. Her eyes were fixated on the hairpin, just like Xi Wan Rong, shocked and angry.


    If Xi Jiu Er was scared stiff by their threats, then her previous life would be a waste. She indifferently raised her lips and coldly said: "Xi Wan Rong, if you know what''s good for you, don''t come provoke me, otherwise, I will scrape off your face! "Even though I said that we should get along, if you don''t know what''s good for you and provoke me first, I will definitely repay you double, I will keep my word."

 C6

    Holding the hairpin is very skillful, walking along the smooth skin without hurting the skin. Xi Wan Rong''s entire body trembled from the movement of the hairpin. At this moment, she was staring at his face and she had no doubt that he would do such a thing, she was immediately frightened by his imposing manner.


    "Very good." Xi Jiu Er retrieved the hairpin and put it on her head.


    Xi Wan Rong, who had recovered from his shock, immediately threw Xi Jiu Er''s warning to the back of his mind. She only thought that the slut in front of her would actually dare to threaten her, and actually dare to cut her face? Did she not want to live? Who was Xi Wan Rong? She was the apple of Xi Family''s eye and was famous for being the prettiest in the entire Great Zhou Empire. What did she, Xi Jiu Er, count as?


    Xi Wan Rong, who had always been cherished and raised up in the palm of his hand, could only threaten others, how could anyone dare to threaten him? Especially considering that the other party was someone she had always bullied. This made her so angry that she trembled. Now, her anger had completely forgotten her previous fear, so she swiftly extended her hand to give him a resounding slap.


    "It looks like you haven''t put my words in your ears at all." Xi Jiu Er grabbed her wrist with a pair of frightening eyes, it seemed like if she did not teach him a lesson, he would think that she was a pushover and would be easy to deal with. After she said that, she immediately slapped him, the clear sound of her slap caused everyone to be stunned.


    Xi Wan Rong covered his face as he stared at him in disbelief, and screamed: "You, you actually dared to hit me? Who do you think you are? You''re just a bitch that a dead mother loves, a slut ¡­ "Ahhh!" After being slapped again, she stared angrily at Xi Jiu Er as if she wanted to eat her up. She did not even manage to see the look the servant gave her.


    "I''m going to kill you, you slut, you slut ¡­" Xi Wan Rong immediately pounced towards Xi Jiu Er like a ferocious cat, with bared fangs and brandished claws, like this, she no longer looked like a beauty from a big family, as though she was the prettiest in the entire Great Zhou Empire, and it was not excessive to call her a shrew! Seeing that Dan Kou was going straight for him, Xi Jiu Er said while dodging: "Second sister, you have to pay attention to your image, the prettiest girl in the Zhou Dynasty cannot be like a shrew in a city, calling her a slut is bad for your image."


    "Miss, Miss... "Stop fighting ¡­" The servant girl anxiously said: "Prince Xian is right behind you."


    Xi Wan Rong was about to go crazy from being called an ''image''. She wanted to grab hold of this smiling face in front of her and tear it apart ¡­ When he heard the words'' Prince Xian '', he immediately froze. He slowly turned his head to look and saw a handsome man standing in the wind. His eyes were filled with surprise.


    Just now, she actually did something in front of the person she liked ¡­ It was over. The perfect image that she had created over the years was now ruined. Xi Wan Rong''s face was flushed red, her mind quickly tried to think of a way to save her image, but the main culprit, Xi Jiu Er, this little slut, was waiting for her to take care of him in the future, she did not fear that she did not have the time and opportunity.


    "My daughter greets Your Highness Prince Xian." In the blink of an eye, the ferocious looking young lady had already become a noble Miss. Her perfect etiquette, along with her young and shy face, made a slight bow.


    Even Xi Jiu Er was speechless. The speed at which she changed his attitude was absolute! She then bowed: "Greetings, Your Highness Prince Xian." She did not expect that she would meet Prince Xian like this in her current life. She remembered that when she went to the Plum Blossom Forest, she saw a beautiful man smiling at her from under the Plum Blossom Forest.


    and Mu Qiu Shui seemed to know each other, and from Xi Wan Rong''s expression, it was clear that she had fallen for him. No wonder in his previous life, when he was with Mu Qiu Shui, First Lady and Xi Wan Feng had arranged for them to stay together in the villa, saying that they were cultivating their bodies and nurturing their bodies.


    It turned out to be her! She really couldn''t find a place to do this without spending a lot of effort! This really made it easy for him to find her.


    "Get up." Prince Xian felt that the turbid Qi that had been plugging his chest the entire time had disappeared, and his mood had become much better. His face, which was filled with the anger of a beauty and a joyful smile, had actually personally pulled Xi Wan Rong up, and then, he had originally wanted to go and support Xi Jiu Er, but he was slightly stopped by Xi Wan Rong''s body.


    Xi Wan Rong suppressed the excitement in his heart as an indescribable charm appeared in his eyes. How could the Prince Xian, who had experienced a lot of love, not tell that she liked him? However, he did not want such a hypocritical woman. In front of a person, the latter was the same. Only the inside of a beautiful leather bag was extremely dirty. The wife he wanted would never be like this!


    "Prince Xian... Are, are you here to see Wan Rong? " Xi Wan Rong said shyly, "Wan Rong is so happy."


    Mu Qiu Shui had covered her up well, not only did she have to rely on her abilities but also her acting, he was annoyed in his heart: It''s this kind of woman again, I really hate her. When did he say he had come to see her? He really wasn''t just putting on an act.


    "Prince Xian, please wait a moment. Wan Rong, go and tidy up your appearance, I will come over immediately ¡­" With that, she ran off like a wisp of smoke, the servant girl quickly bowed to Prince Xian and chased after her master.


    "maidservant will take his leave." Xi Jiu Er was surprised that Mu Qiu Shui would appear at this time, she guessed that she had already recognized him. So what if he thought about it, what if she beat him to death and did not admit anything? She then calmly went up to Mu Qiu Shui who was blocking his path: "Your Highness, please get out of the way."


    Mu Qiu Shui raised his eyebrows, "You sure are bold, to actually dare to poison a great Prince Xian. Do you know that just a single word from me will cause you to die a graveless death?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Mu Qiu Shui blankly with an ignorant expression. She blinked her eyes and asked uncertainly: "Um ¡­ Prince Xian, are you talking to me? I don''t understand what you''re talking about. " Her grandfather had started the competition, so even if she beat him to death, she would not admit it.


    If it was anyone else, they would definitely believe it, but who was Mu Qiu Shui? A regular patron of brothels, an expert at flirting among women, how could he not recognize her if she saw through his disguise? Could it be that this little girl wanted to refuse and instead welcomed him? That was exactly what he wanted.


    "Don''t understand? "It seems like I got the wrong person ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui''s body moved to the side, based on her understanding of Mu Qiu Shui, she might have other moves, no matter what, she should receive them.


    Mu Qiu Shui felt that Xi Jiu Er''s attitude was one of rejection and welcome. He stared at her delicate back with interest as he thought to himself, wanting to see what other tricks she has up her sleeve. He raised his brows and said to the servant behind him: "Let''s go meet Master."


    When mother of joy told the old Madame everything that she had seen, including what Xi Jiu Er had said, the doubt in the old Madame''s eyes gradually disappeared. As if she was sighing with helplessness, she said in a bland voice, "It would be best if she thought this through.


    mother of joy pondered for a while, then said softly, "Old Madame, this old servant feels that Ninth Miss has truly thought it through. She has become sensible, otherwise, why would she kneel to Second Miss? In the end, she''s already old and knows that she still needs Old Madame and First Lady to control her future marriage. If she continues to be so stubborn, it might not be beneficial for him. "


    "That''s right, that''s probably the reason!" "If she is obedient, I will definitely investigate as long as I remain in her marriage. It can be considered as my debt to her for so many years. After all, she has already been dead for so many years ¡­" The old Madame frowned as she thought of something, and asked doubtfully, "What do you think of this matter with Old Third? "Is she with Third Bro ¡­"


    The old Madame did not say anything. The mother of joy thought for a while and said softly, "Old Madame, this old servant thinks that Ninth Miss might not have anything to do with Third Wife. This matter, Third Wife might be using the Ninth Miss''s name to meet some servants in private, so it is not impossible."


    mother of joy explained everything after she said that, maybe Third Wife would try to get along with the servants after seeing her name, but who knew that this matter would be discovered! Old Madame felt that this explanation made sense, but she couldn''t figure out what was wrong. She felt that this headache was starting to feel pain again.


    "Go, bring me the medicine ¡­" Sigh, after eating so many medicine, only boss'' medicine is not bad ¡­ "It works." The big brother that the old Madame spoke of was the First Lady. When she thought about how the First Lady had taught the little girl that she liked to this extent, her head started to ache again. The maidservant brought the medicine and drank it, but it no longer hurt. She was even more spirited than before.


    Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Xiang back to the courtyard and just happened to see the servant, Dong Er, holding onto a small box as she was about to leave. Xi Jiu Er went to the western courtyard to lock up for around half a month before she returned today. Seeing Dong Er''s stupefied expression, Xi Jiu Er guessed that she probably did not expect that she would return a day earlier than she had expected.


    After Dong Er was startled, she immediately smiled. Her eyes sparkled as she took the wooden box and placed it behind her back. "Ninth Miss is back? Hehe, it''s also not a box that Ninth Miss doesn''t need ¡­ Servant, Servant felt that it was good to watch, so he decided to put it away! "


    In his past life, Dong Er had been very popular with him. He always tried to please others with his sweet mouth and he also liked to talk nice things to her. In this life, other than believing in Liu Xiang, no one else believed!


    "Is that so? Why can''t I remember having a box? Take it out and let me see. It really isn''t the one I don''t need. Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, she handed the box over. The box was truly beautiful, even the wood was excellent, and the sculptures were vivid and lifelike, even the buttons were exquisite.


    Would she want such a box? It was clearly Dong Er''s act of stealing, maybe it wasn''t the first time! She was using this opportunity to show it to the people in the courtyard. Did she really think that she was still that child who didn''t know anything and allowed them to cheat him? Her face darkened, "Dong Er, you actually stole master''s things. Men, drag Dong Er down here and beat him thirty times before throwing him into the laundry room."

 C7

    ''Clank ''. The box in Dong Er''s hands tumbled to the ground as she yelled in disbelief: "Ninth Miss, Servant is wronged, Servant did not steal anything, you did not take this!"


    "Still trying to quibble ¡­" "What''s inside!" A broken jade bracelet rolled out from the box. Under the rays of the sun, the bracelet emitted a dazzling light. One could tell at a glance that it was a high-grade jade bracelet.


    Dong Er''s face turned white, and she stuttered as she did not know how to explain. Normally, she would rely on her good behavior to be doted on by Xi Jiu Er, and considered herself as the most popular person by Xi Jiu Er''s side. Seeing that Dong Er had lost the Ninth Miss''s favor, the servants who had been bullied by her immediately pressed her down.


    "Let go, let go, you guys let go of me, do you know who I am? I am a servant sent by the First Lady. " Dong Er panicked and began to scream, in a moment of desperation, he revealed his old self. Great, she had already suspected that Dong Er was sent by the First Lady, it''s true. Then she couldn''t be merciful ¡­


    "Dong Er, not only are you not regretting your decision yet, you actually slandered the mother. Why would the mother come over quickly to pamper me and place someone like you by my side? "You''re obviously looking for excuses. Men, come and beat her up. Even if you kill her, you''ll be asking for it. Serves you right!" Xi Jiu Er shouted, it looked like they were not joking, the servants were not only trembling in fear.


    "What are you still standing there for? Do you take my words as nothing?" Xi Jiu Er was furious. Only now did he realize that she was such a good-natured master in their eyes that his words were like farts to them.


    Dong Er was forcefully dragged down, and she was even crying out loud, not long later, sounds of flesh hitting the ground came out, it was so painful that Dong Er was screaming out loud, she couldn''t help but shiver.


    Xi Jiu Er walked over and carefully placed the bracelet into the box. ''Hiss'', her finger accidentally cut on the bracelet, and the blood had actually disappeared into the bracelet? She thought she was seeing things, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that she had indeed disappeared. How strange, how could she have disappeared? On the first drop of blood, it disappeared again ¡­ Could this be a bracelet that drank human blood?


    After her rebirth, she had already believed that there were ghosts and deities in this world. Otherwise, how could she have been reborn? His heart was overwhelmed with shock, he placed the bracelet back into the box for Liu Xiang to hide it well, to not be discovered. In the time that Dong Er had to go back and forth, he was already done fighting, and needed more air to get in and out. He laid on the chair like a dog, blood had already permeated through his clothes.


    "Nine ¡­" Miss... "


    "Take her to the laundry." Xi Jiu Er coldly glanced at her, then turned and left.


    Smoke shrouded his eyes, and he could hear the pleasant sound of spring water and the soft, tender voice of a child. "I''ve waited for a long, long time. Someone finally came." When the fog in front of her eyes cleared, she saw that there was nothing but a mouthful of spring water in the room.


    The young child''s voice rang out again. "What is your name?"


    "Xi Jiu Er."


    "Master Jiu Er, this is the personal space, your blood droplets are the masters of the personal space on the jade bracelet, and I am the guardian of the personal space ¡ª ¡ª Qiu Qiu. Qiu Qiu had already been waiting for his master for a very long time, to the point where Qiu Qiu didn''t even know how long it had actually been ¡­ "Anyway, it''s been a long time!" With a ''bang'', a spherical object jumped over. Its entire body was white, revealing a pair of large eyes and a cherry lips. It was extremely adorable.


    "What does personal space do?" Xi Jiu Er asked, a little confused.


    "The personal space has a lot of uses, you can store things, and you can also grow things, such as vegetables, fruits, and herbs. This spring water was inexhaustible. Not only could it cure a hundred diseases, it could also extend one''s lifespan and beauty and beauty! Uhh, the space right now is a little small, but it will grow bigger and bigger with Master''s age. In the future, Master and Qiu Qiu can dress up this place up nicely, and grow flowers and fish. Qiu Qiu looked forward to it.


    "Use your consciousness." Qiu Qiu skipped to the side of the spring as if he was offering a treasure: "Master, quickly drink a mouthful of the spring water to feel it, you can also bathe, the spring water will never be dirty!"


    Qiu Qiu''s explanation of the spring water was even more useful than the immortal pills, she wanted to feel it. Jiu Zun drank a few mouthfuls of the spring water. It was really sweet and delicious. After drinking it down, he felt his entire body was feeling incomparably comfortable, and he was also in high spirits ¡­ Qiu Qiu hurriedly said, "Master, you can bathe, bathe, wash it white, and smell good."


    "But ¡­" But here you are, right after he finished saying it, he was pushed into the spring by a burst of energy. The cool spring water made his skin feel unspeakably comfortable, his skin was really much more tender, and the scars he had gotten from fighting with Xi Wan Rong previously were all gone! It''s amazing.


    Yu Linglong, the bracelet that shattered and ate her blood? This was an unexpected gain, and she had to thank Dong Er for it. If it wasn''t for her, how could she have obtained such a treasure? ''This is bad! ''For a moment, she was lost in thought. She was afraid that it was already evening and it was time for her to eat.


    "Qiu Qiu, I''m leaving, how can I leave?" Xi Jiu Er asked anxiously.


    "Master is not afraid, the time here is a lot slower than the time outside." Master is not afraid, the time here is a lot slower than the time outside. Qiu Qiu said joyfully: "If Master wants to go out, you can go out immediately."


    Eh? He opened his eyes, the curtains, and the vermilion wooden table ¡­ It was as if she was dreaming. However, the wound on her arm had disappeared, and it told her that this was not a dream. She was stunned for a moment, unable to suppress the ecstasy in her heart! Seeing that she had woken up, Liu Xiang cried: "Miss, wuu, that bracelet is gone ¡­. Gone ¡­ Servant didn''t take it. " Fine jade fragments could sometimes be used as a hairpin and inlaid into a headdress. In fact, they were extremely useful.


    Is that so? Xi Jiu Er didn''t take it to heart at all and comforted Liu Xiang: "Stop crying, it''s fine if you lose it, it''s not a big deal. You can''t be so weak in the future. It''s not good to cry every now and then. Be strong, or else we will all be bullied. Don''t look at how First Lady and the others treat us well, but secretly wanted to harm us, so you need to be at ease and be quick-witted. I still need your protection. "


    Liu Xiang wiped her tears and nodded firmly: "Miss, Servant will change. Servant will be smarter in the future.


    In the whole of Xi Mansion, the only person she trusted most was Liu Xiang, no one else would believe that Liu Xiang had served her for ten years without any complaints, and after her death in her previous life, she had hanged herself as well, showing her loyalty.


    "Is the Ninth Miss here?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s face changed slightly, and immediately stood up with a smile to welcome them: Wang Ma, what are you doing, what do you need to send your servant to run errands for her, why do you need to personally come over?


    Wang Ma was still as kind as before, as though he was a kind and amiable old man: "Hehe, this is a huge matter. Madame asked this old servant to bring over a set of clothes, tonight there are going to be some important guests, so wearing this will definitely bring about a shine to Ninth Miss." It really had changed, and it was now better at speaking than it was in the past.


    The maidservant behind him immediately handed over the prepared skirt. Just by looking at the fabric itself, it was hard to come by. If one looked at it carefully, they would see that the workmanship was very exquisite. In her previous life, this dress was gifted to her by Xi Hong Sheng. At this moment, this dress was like an ice-cold poisonous snake, causing her to keep her distance.


    Jiu Er likes it so much. Wang Ma, please help me thank mother, thank you for her care and concern. Xi Jiu Er happily received the dress and immediately shook it. Even as a reborn person, she could not help but fall in love with this dress.


    "Eh, there''s a strange smell on the clothes." Xi Jiu Er''s breath was very sharp now, and had a strange smell? Was it the smell of the new dress? No matter how she looked at it, the smell didn''t seem like a good thing. She recalled her past life and suddenly understood, "It was the Joyous Union Powder. My clothes were soaked in it before."


    No wonder, no wonder ¡­ Then everything made sense, no wonder in his previous life, he had cheated at the banquet. Under the First Lady''s scheme, she had fallen in love with Mu Qiu Shui, and because Mu Qiu Shui was an expert in love, she could not free herself from it!


    The Wang Ma spoke some bad words on behalf of the First Lady before she left. Liu Xiang looked at her dress and exclaimed in admiration: "Ninth Miss, this Luo Hua is so beautiful. If the Miss were to wear it, he would definitely be as beautiful as a fairy and beat the Second Miss down." Touching this place with his hands, Liu Xiang was extremely happy. She didn''t think that the First Lady would not give such a good thing to her two daughters, what would he give her? If you don''t have anything to offer, then you''re a thief!


    "Liu Xiang, why do you think she gave me such a beautiful dress that could even overshadow her daughter''s beauty? What is she planning?" Xi Jiu Er felt that Liu Xiang needed her guidance, if she were to be sold, she would definitely help him.


    Liu Xiang was startled, and said in shock: "Yes, why would First Lady do such a thing? "How strange ¡­"


    "Hur Hur Hur, you''ll know when the time comes." Xi Jiu Er told Liu Xiang to wrap the dress properly so that no one would be able to see through it, and then she went to look for Xi Wan Rong! First Lady is embarrassed, I am afraid your meticulously planned conspiracy will go down the drain tonight. Thinking about it, Xi Jiu Er could not help but anticipate what would happen tonight. The more exciting the better.


    Xi Wan Rong was instructing the servant to dress herself up so that she could appear in front of the Prince Xian in the most beautiful manner. Looking at her beautiful reflection in the mirror, she smiled confidently. Xi Wan Rong, you are the most beautiful woman, Prince Xian will definitely be enchanted by your beauty, he will definitely like you.


    "Miss, what dress are you going to wear?" The maidservant opened the cabinet and asked.

 C8

    After a long while, Xi Wan Rong started to throw a tantrum, the dresses on the shelves did not make her satisfied, the servant saw that her cheeks were raised to the point of about to explode, and immediately tried to please her: "Miss, why not wear this peach, it suits your makeup well, and also seems to make you look especially tender."


    "Peach red? "Vulgar." Xi Wan Rong stared at him and rejected decisively.


    A maidservant walked in and reported, "Second Miss, Ninth Miss is here. He said that he had brought you a good item and that you would definitely like it."


    "Is that so? "Let her in. I want to see what good stuff she brought me." Originally, he didn''t plan to let her in, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to vent his anger on her. He also wanted to see what good stuff he brought back. Hmph, if you don''t satisfy yourself, then let''s see how she will embarrass Xi Jiu Er in front of Prince Xian tonight.


    Xi Jiu Er walked in with a smile, and saw the servant holding a dress, on the bed there was also a dress, the closet was also open, the owner''s mouth was pouting as if his heart was burning. Then, he laughed: "Big sister, looks like Jiu Er came at the right time, Liu Xiang, give the thing to Second Miss."


    "Yes." Liu Xiang handed the package over to Xi Wan Rong''s servant. The servant opened it suspiciously and exclaimed: "Miss, this dress is so beautiful!


    Xi Wan Rong was immediately captivated by the maid''s dress. He lovingly touched it left and right but then gestured with his body, and immediately ordered the servant: "Help me change." He had already treated Xi Jiu Er as air and was busy dressing himself up.


    Xi Wan Rong was really fond of beauties, he did not even bother to ask where Xi Jiu Er had gotten the dress and took it for himself, he did not even say a word of thanks. Xi Jiu Er sneered, Xi Wan Rong was just like that, extremely selfish and selfish. As long as he likes something, he must steal it.


    However, this was also good. This was exactly what he wanted to see.


    "Miss, this is too much. Second Miss didn''t even thank you before taking the dress to wear." Liu Xiang pouted unhappily.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled without a care: "Thank you, I still need to thank her." In her previous life, she would definitely resent and grumble at something like this that she had encountered in her previous life. However, she had already died once, so she naturally wouldn''t take such a small matter seriously.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "I might not understand what I told you, but if you don''t understand me during dinner then I will tell you." Liu Xiang''s brain was originally wooden, and could only teach slowly, not in a hurry to achieve anything.


    "Oh."


    Tonight, she specially picked out a set of unremarkable dresses, dressed very simply, and didn''t have any special spots like the usual Shangguan Miss s. During dinner, she also came at the right time, neither too early nor too late, other than Xi Hong Sheng the main character, and the Prince Xian''s female servant, Xi Wan Rong had not come for a long time. It seemed like she was going to be amazing.


    When First Lady saw Xi Jiu Er''s plain clothes, her exquisite face stiffened. Luckily, she was maintained very well, so she pulled Xi Jiu Er by the hand and whispered: "Jiu Er, where is the long skirt that I asked Wang Ma to give you? "Why aren''t you wearing it? I specially prepared it for you." Wang Ma said that she had personally handed it over to Xi Jiu Er, how could she not wear it? Would she refuse such a beautiful dress?


    Xi Wan Feng also walked over and asked softly: "Little Sister Jiu Er, aren''t you dressed a little too cleanly? You''re not respectful to your esteemed guest like this, how about we go back and change it?"


    "That... mother, the long skirt you gave me was really pretty, Jiu Er really liked it, but Jiu Er''s looks might not look good on her, so she gave it to Elder Sister Rong. Xi Jiu Er''s small face showed shyness as she lowered her head to hide the light that flashed past her eyes.


    The complexions of both First Lady and Xi Wan Feng changed, and Xi Wan Feng reacted the fastest as he immediately asked: "Really? I''m going to take a look at Rong Er. "


    Unfortunately, it was too late. Prince Xian and Xi Hong Sheng had already appeared, where could Xi Wan Feng leave now? He could only worry and hope that Xi Wan Rong would not wear it. However, this hope was very slim, so how could Xi Wan Rong not wear it? Xi Wan Feng looked at Xi Jiu Er who did not have any change in expression, feeling shocked in her heart.


    When she saw Prince Xian, she did not reveal any of her infatuation. One must know that even she was moved by Prince Xian''s beauty, what made her feel even weirder was that, according to Xi Jiu Er''s personality, she would definitely wear a skirt to match up to Xi Wan Rong. Why was she not wearing it? Had her personality really changed? Did she really have good intentions in giving the skirt to Xi Wan Rong to wear?


    "Miss Rong Wan, your long skirt is truly beautiful, but she is even more beautiful." Prince Xian was not stingy with his praises, after all, the reason Xi Wan Rong had shown up so high profile was so that he could be praised, so what if he said something nice? Without leaving a trace, she looked towards Xi Jiu Er. Why didn''t she have any reaction when she heard herself praising others?


    "Mu Xi, come over." Xi Wan Feng called his personal servant over and whispered a few words into his ear. A flash of hesitation appeared on Mu Xi''s face, and he nodded: Servant knows.


    ''Just pretend you''re not paying attention and sprinkle the soup on your dress later... '' Not only did his nose become stronger, his ears also became smoother... You have schemed against me before, Xi Jiu Er''s expression did not change. The master of the house, Xi Hong Sheng, who was having dinner with Prince Xian today, was naturally included: the First Lady, Xi Wan Feng and her sister, as well as the Four Young Master''s, Xi Nian Mao. The concubines and concubines were not allowed to participate in such cases.


    When it was time to sit, Xi Jiu Er was supposed to sit at the end of the chair, but when that happened, she was sitting right above Mu Qiu Shui. Just as she was about to sit down, Xi Wan Rong twisted her butt and sat down on Xi Jiu Er''s seat. This action made everyone frown unknowingly, so Xi Jiu Er could only take a step back and sit beside her. Xi Hong Sheng raised his eyebrow, it was truly strange today, why was Jiu Er not angry? If it was a normal day, things might have gotten out of hand again.


    On the other hand, Xi Hong Sheng frowned slightly at the sight of Xi Wan Rong who had a face full of infatuation. He had already discussed this with the old Madame and the current position of zodiac was still hanging in the air, not long after he had ascended to the throne. These two daughters of his, who only wanted talent and looks, had once again reached the age of the Engagement and it was a pity that they did not send him to the palace.


    After so many years, the husband and wife First Lady already knew what he was thinking from his expression, and was inwardly anxious. It was unknown when her precious daughter started to fall in love, but the target was actually Prince Xian! No, she didn''t want that to happen. Although the Prince Xian was a prince, he did not have any real power.


    How could she let her precious daughter marry such a person?


    Mu Xi rode a bowl of soup over. Without leaving a trace, Xi Jiu Er stuck his foot out and unerringly sprinkled the soup in his hand towards Xi Wan Feng, almost causing her to scream out of pain. Mu Xi immediately kneeled in fear and said, "Great, Great Miss, Servant did not serve you well, please punish me." She was just about to sprinkle the soup on Xi Wan Rong and the rest, but something caught her off guard and accidentally spilled the soup on her own Miss and her group.


    Xi Wan Feng glared at Mu Xi.


    It scared Mu Xi so much that his face paled. He was afraid that when he went back to the Great Miss, he would need to stab himself again. Don''t look at how the Great Miss seemed to be well-informed and rational on the outside. He was extremely irritable secretly, and for the sake of his own reputation, he would often prick his own personal servant girl, and even threaten to sell her to the village if he were to say it out loud. He wouldn''t be able to think of doing it for the rest of his life.


    First Lady''s expression became even worse as he forced out a smile and stood up: "Rong Er, what are you standing there for, quickly bring your sister down to change into a new set of clothes."


    However, Xi Jiu Er stood up and said meekly: "mother, let your daughter accompany your sister."


    "Rong Er!" First Lady''s face sank. This was an opportunity, she hoped that her daughter would not be impatient at this time. It was a pity that Xi Wan Rong did not take First Lady''s words to heart, and instead pouted: "If your daughter does not go, then elder sister will have Mu Xi to accompany her, it is as if she is a servant girl serving you."


    First Lady was so angry that he wanted to pinch Xi Wan Rong''s ears, but now was not the time, he could only stomp his feet in worry and give Xi Wan Feng a look so that she would think of a way. Xi Jiu Er saw this and was happy in her heart. She said anxiously: "Big sister, look at your red skin. Quickly apply ice water on it, be careful not to leave any burn marks."


    Once he heard that it would be burned, how could Xi Wan Feng still stay? She did not have a beautiful face like Xi Wan Rong. If she were to be burned, how would she be able to enter the palace to fight for her love in the future? Immediately, he let Mu Xi support him leave Xi Jiu Er behind and quickly leave.


    First Lady''s chest was moving up and down. She started to think if she should pretend to faint ¡­ But, before he could finish his thought, something happened to Xi Wan Rong!


    "So hot ¡­" Xi Wan Rong felt as if her entire body was burning hot, rouge also appeared on her cheeks, her beautiful apricot eyes seemed to be clouded, as though she was drunk. As she muttered hot words, she loosened her collar, revealing her seductive collarbones and peony apron.


    "Elder sister, what''s wrong? Is there something wrong? " Xi Jiu Er went up and asked with concern. Who would have thought that she would accidentally step on Mu Xi''s sprinkling of soup on the floor? Then, she accidentally pushed Xi Wan Rong into the Prince Xian''s embrace. At that moment, she saw the Prince Xian frantically catching the woman who suddenly pounced towards her, disgust flashing past her eyes.

    "Prince ¡­" When he touched his firm chest, he could hear his strong heartbeat. The faint scent of incense and the unique scent of a man mixed together to form a catalyst for the Joyous Union Powder. Xi Wan Rong''s weak and delicate body felt as though her entire body was being eaten by millions of ants. She could not help but hold onto the man that she liked, and she immediately felt that she was willing to die for him.


    "Wretched girl, what are you doing?" Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes widened as he stood up and became furious: "What are you pieces of trash standing around for? Why aren''t you pulling the Miss? "


    Xi Wan Rong''s personal servant immediately went to pull it, which was good for her, but with a pull, she actually pulled down Xi Wan Rong''s skirt! Her smooth and exposed back was sparkling white. The red rope in her undergarment intertwined with her pure white skin, giving off a tempting vibe. Under everyone''s shocked eyes, Xi Jiu Er shouted out loud, "Sister, quickly let go of the prince, your clothes are rotten and your back is exposed, you can''t be hugging each other!" This time, the servants outside the house could hear him clearly.


    "You, you, you ¡­" First Lady''s eyes turned white and she almost fainted. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er seemed to have made such an unintentional mistake, she immediately felt as if she had eaten a disgusting act of search for food, and wanted to vomit.


    Xi Jiu Er screamed as she pulled Xi Wan Rong. It seemed like she was pulling her, but in reality, they were all pulling her dress. The material of the dress was excellent, but it was a pity that First Lady opened the collar wide, if you only had to pull on it, your back and smooth shoulders would be revealed. Xi Jiu Er almost took off her skirt.


    "Let go, let go ¡­" However, Xi Wan Rong was still struggling to get rid of the touch of the servant girl and the rest. The rusted apron of the peony flower was completely exposed to the crowd''s eyes. The perfectly round shape inside could also be seen ¡­ How many people had this scene provoked? First Lady''s entire body was trembling and he looked like he was about to faint. Xi Hong Sheng''s old face had already turned the color of a pig''s liver and Xi Jing Cheng had his servants take him down.


    The Prince Xian was very calm, he elegantly pulled up his clothes, and unhesitatingly cut towards the back of Xi Wan Rong''s neck, only to hear a ''oh'' sound, as Xi Wan Rong fell into his embrace.


    First Lady immediately waved for the servant and the Wang Ma to bring Xi Wan Rong back to his own room. Xi Jiu Er followed behind him happily, planning to add fuel to the fire! Leaving behind Xi Hong Sheng and Prince Xian, the only thing that could be heard was Xi Hong Sheng ''hahahaha'' a few times. With the Prince Xian, they came to a tacit agreement to pass on this matter.


    The First Lady had his servant settle Xi Wan Rong down, so Xi Wan Feng came over quickly and asked him about the general situation. Just as he wanted to say something, the First Lady found out that he had been obediently staying in the corner Xi Jiu Er, and smiled: "Jiu Er, why are you here, go back quickly. Someone, send Ninth Miss back. "


    Seeing that First Lady had forced herself to focus on dealing with him, the more she didn''t want to bother with Xi Jiu Er, the more Xi Jiu Er asked her about how he wanted her to deal with him, "It''s okay, I''ll wait here for Elder Sister Rong to wake up! Did the mother call a doctor? Liu Xiang, what are you standing there for, quickly get up and find the First Lady! "


    Liu Xiang vaguely sensed something was up, and immediately nodded: "Yes." However, she was stopped by Mu Xi. Xi Wan Feng came over and held Xi Jiu Er''s hand cordially as she spoke, and pulled her to the outer room: "Little Sister Jiu Er, don''t be busy. I have already arranged everything with mother. Seeing that it''s getting late, I''ll send you back. I haven''t talked to you for a long time, there''s coincidentally something I want to ask you. "


    "But Elder Sister Rong, she... No, I will wait for the doctor to visit Elder Sister Rong before I leave. " Xi Jiu Er firmly shook her head, she had already struggled free of Xi Wan Feng''s arm and obediently sat on the side of the bed, staring at Xi Wan Rong with eyes full of concern, she gave off the feeling that she was even more worried than Xi Wan Feng, the blood sister.


    Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed sinisterly, he dragged Xi Jiu Er up again: "You have to come back tomorrow, if you wake up later, you will probably lose your temper again, and the two of you will definitely start arguing again, won''t outsiders see it as a joke?"


    "Where is the evil creature?" Xi Hong Sheng''s voice suddenly came over, and with a face full of anger, he walked over and directly slapped First Lady. First Lady looked at Xi Hong Sheng in shock, and covered half of his face without any reaction. The servant was so frightened that he did not dare make a single sound. He almost shrunk himself down into the crevice, otherwise he would not be afraid of bringing trouble upon himself.


    "Father, if you have anything to say, please say it ¡­" Ah ¡ª ¡ª "Xi Jiu Er stepped forward to try to persuade her, but she was suddenly thrown off by Xi Hong Sheng." Yo, her anger is not small.


    "Scram." Xi Hong Sheng roared at the First Lady: Look at your daughter, she undressed in front of Prince Xian, my old face is about to be thrown away by her, if this were to spread out, who knows how many people would mock me for not raising my daughter, for giving birth to such a shameless thing.


    Get lost? Who did she screw off to fan the flames here? Xi Jiu Er cried out in shock: "Father''s Elder Sister Rong is the prettiest girl in the entire Zhou Dynasty, how could she make such a vulgar expression? Father, is this a misunderstanding? Elder Sister Rong would definitely not be such a person. "


    "Not such a person? I saw it with my own eyes, so how could it be fake? " How could Xi Hong Sheng care about why Xi Jiu Er would appear here? The furious him only knew that his daughter, whom he had always doted on and placed his hopes on, was actually undressed in front of a man who was also Prince Xian!


    "Master ¡­" Married for so many years, where had she been beaten? To actually hit him in front of his daughter and his servants today, how could she submit to everyone in the future? Was his daughter''s innocence more important than his face? Isn''t Rong Er her daughter? Rong Er was innocent. The one who was scolded and beaten up was this little bitch, Xi Jiu Er.


    First Lady felt as if he had eaten a piece of Huang Lian. He pressed all of the resentment, anger, unwillingness and other emotions onto his chest and spoke with a face full of indignation for the woman: "Master, Rong Er is your daughter. Her actions today are strange than usual. I''m afraid she bumped into something unclean. " Then she sobbed, "My poor daughter, she must have met some dirty stuff."


    "That''s right, father. My sister must have encountered something unclean that caused her to become like this. Everything was fine before, but then suddenly ¡­" Xi Wan Feng stopped just in time. Smashing into an evil spirit was the best excuse. What other reason could there be for such a sudden change in a person''s personality other than encountering something unclean?


    Xi Hong Sheng was a little hesitant. He had personally seen Xi Wan Rong grow up, so he naturally knew very well what kind of character he had.


    "No matter what unclean thing Elder Sister Rong encountered, it had already happened. We should at least erase the matter." Xi Jiu Er said worriedly: "If this matter were to spread out, not only will it damage Elder Sister Rong''s reputation, our Xi Mansion will also be ridiculed."


    She was indirectly telling Xi Hong Sheng not to think that Xi Wan Rong was innocent and that she would still be responsible for the consequences.


    Sure enough, when Xi Hong Sheng thought of how he needed to clean up this mess, he angrily left.


    Xi Jiu Er''s objective had already been achieved, so she left as well. Before leaving, her eyes were still filled with concern: "I will come see Elder Sister Rong again tomorrow."


    When Xi Jiu Er left, First Lady''s eyes were wide open, her luxurious face revealed a fierce look: "Feng''er, go ahead. All of the servants on duty in the dining hall should be locked up, don''t leave a single one behind for me to deal with. And Xi Jiu Er, I can see how this slut will cut her heart, if she comes to Wang Ma tomorrow, I will kick her out, it was Rong Er''s idea. "


    Wang Ma nodded his head, and looked at First Lady''s swollen face with heartache: "Madame, quickly ask this old servant to compress your face."


    "You guys are doing quite well for me too. Mind your own business. If half of what happened tonight gets out, don''t blame me for being heartless." The servants in the room were so frightened that they did not dare to breathe too loudly. Recalling First Lady''s methods, they hurriedly expressed their loyalty, "This little one will not reveal even half a word. Please rest assured Madame."


    The First Lady waved his hand tiredly for one more person to wait. Xi Wan Feng said softly: "mother, you should rest for a while. After that, he bowed and left in a hurry.


    "Master sure is something, to actually use such a heavy move." Wang Ma used the kernels to cover First Lady''s face. Looking at his swollen face, one could tell how heavy that slap was.


    First Lady sneered. After many years of marriage, when concubinage married one after another to hurt her heart, she no longer had any feelings for Xi Hong Sheng, and her children became her living support. Even if it was for her children, she had to curry favor with Xi Hong Sheng and show him off. Thinking of his own hardships, he said tiredly, "I''m so tired ¡­"


    Wang Ma felt sad. "First Lady, you can''t fall down. Both Young Master and I need you."


    "That''s right ¡­" The tiredness in her expression disappeared, and First Lady became a dignified, virtuous and sensible woman once more. "There is no time to delay the matter with Rong Er in front of me."


    Liu Xiang held onto the lantern, and suddenly a figure appeared in front of him. The master and servant were extremely frightened, but Xi Jiu Er was still relatively calm, and when she saw the person who had arrived, she said indifferently, "So it''s Prince Xian, you''re not sleeping this late yet and you came running out to scare me? "Do you find it interesting?"


    If Xi Jiu Er cared about him, he would definitely be jealous. Prince Xian guessed.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyebrows jumped: The Prince Xian is indeed beautiful, even more beautiful than my sister. As for the matter of throwing herself at her, the Duke has to take responsibility for it.

 C10

    "Your Highness? "You, are you alright?" Xi Jiu Er looked at Prince Xian''s twisted and painful face, as though he was trapped by some complex problem. It was as though the next person was going to rush over and roar at her. She asked carefully: "You don''t want to be responsible for Elder Sister Rong? If you don''t want to, then so be it. "


    These words really made Prince Xian go from the Third Sky of Sky to the Spring. He had said it like this, this woman really wanted to take advantage of the situation to scold him.


    "It''s getting late, if there''s nothing else, please rest. Liu Xiang, let''s go." Prince Xian is not a plaything prince that everyone knows about ¡­ She still had to be careful.


    Looking at the back of the beauty who had left, no matter how one looked at it, Xi Wan Rong''s original devastatingly beautiful face was merely that of a woman with only skin and skin. Tonight, this old cunning fox, Xi Hong Sheng, had called him for Tai Ji all night. The more he acted this way, the more suspicious he became.


    The night was as still as water. The trees that the moonlight passed through were scattered all over the path, and the sound of a breeze could be heard. He seemed to have been waiting for a long time. When he saw Xi Jiu Er appear, he seemed to be frightened like a little deer, and said with a voice as loud as a mosquito: "Little Sister Jiu Er, you, why are you here?"


    The young girl''s waist was as delicate as a willow, and her skin was fair. She was a beauty.


    Xi Jiu Er thoughtfully looked at her as a tinge of red flashed across the girl''s cheeks. She then turned and left in a sorry state.


    "Miss, what''s wrong with the five Miss s?" Liu Xiang rubbed her head and asked, "How strange, she looks even better than usual ¡­ "Could it be ¡­"


    "That''s right, she wants to seduce the Prince Xian and plan a good future for herself." Xi Jiu Er raised the corner of her mouth and laughed heartily. Seeing that there were some things that did not need her own hands to be done, there would be someone else who would do it for him. Normally, this Xi Juan''er would be obedient and sensible, and mother was a person who abided by his duty. He had always been an unnoticed person in the Xi Mansion, but it was such a person that Xi''er was not willing to give up on and wanted to seize this opportunity to escape from her fate ¡­


    If he gave her the chance, she might not let him down.


    The next morning, as Liu Xiang washed up, she reported on the information she had gathered: "Ninth Miss, Servant just saw Tangerine sneakily going out of First Lady Courtyard, so she went to investigate. I heard that she is related to Prince Fu ¡­"


    The image of a benevolent yet imposing old man appeared in his mind. Prince Fu, Wei Guogong? Her grandfather? Xi Jiu Er could not help but guess what was going on. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn''t think of a reason. She simply couldn''t think of any reason, she just had to deal with it.


    "Is the Ninth Miss here? Servant has come to find you under the orders of Third Wife. " The servant''s voice came from outside. Xi Jiu Er recognized the voice, it was Third Wife''s servant, Liu Er.


    When Xi Jiu Er let her in, she saw a normal looking servant girl bowing respectfully, she stood up and said respectfully: "Servant is following Third Wife''s orders to tell you one thing, Wei Guogong is in critical condition, and I hope that Ninth Miss can quickly meet her before she dies, in order to repay Ninth Miss for saving my life."


    "I didn''t get any news about grandfather''s illness. Where did the Third Wife get this news?" Xi Jiu Er blurted out, and instantly understood what it was like to knock the table and rise: "It''s her!"


    Liu Er said lightly: "This news was also obtained from Third Wife''s scouting. Not only did Ninth Miss not receive this news, even our Old Madame did not receive this news ¡­" Liu Er didn''t say it, and First Lady didn''t get the news either. Not only did Xi Jiu Er hold Third Wife in high regard, it seemed like Third Wife had a trick up her sleeves.


    "Go back and thank Third Wife. I, Xi Jiu Er, will remember today''s kindness." Wei Guogong was her last family member. Once Wei Guogong died, she would no longer have any status in Xi Family, and his life would be even worse than a servant. First Lady was afraid that once Wei Guogong stopped breathing, she would come and take care of his.


    It was no wonder that the First Lady did not report her after eating the ambitious leopard. After all, she could find an excuse after the death of the Wei Guogong.


    Great, what a great First Lady, you actually stopped me from seeing my grandfather! Xi Jiu Er''s heart was burning with a raging fire, she ordered Liu Xiang to immediately prepare the carriage, she wanted to immediately set off to see Wei Guogong, and Liu Xiang immediately agreed to her request and ran off.


    Liu Er smiled and left respectfully. Third Wife didn''t normally see, but now it seems that she was really capable, no wonder First Lady fought with her for more than ten years, in the end it was the Old Madame who took Third Wife''s life.


    "Miss... Servant sees Wei Guogong''s carriage just outside the manor. " After a while, Liu Xiang ran over while gasping for breath: "They came to fetch Miss, but were stopped outside the palace by First Lady, they said that Miss went out."


    In order to help Xi Jiu Er cultivate her health and temper her fiery temper, the old Madame had specially arranged for her courtyard to be at the southeast corner. After passing through a small path, they would arrive at the back door of the Xi Mansion. Liu Xiang saw that it was a big matter and planned to let Xi Jiu Er walk through the back door to return to the Duke Palaces. The back door that originally had no one guarding it was actually guarded by someone today, so Liu Xiang didn''t need to guess to know that it was arranged by the First Lady.


    It just so happened that at the time of her arrival, when the shift was changing shifts, she took advantage of the fact that no one had opened the door to take a look, and saw the official driver waiting anxiously outside. When she found out about what had happened, she immediately hated First Lady to the point of almost dismembering into a million pieces. Xi Jiu Er secretly noted down this grudge. She and Liu Xiang immediately went to the back door, and after closing the door, they only heard the sound of approaching footsteps, causing both master and servant to heave a huge sigh of relief.


    "Ninth Miss, you finally came out. This old servant has been waiting outside the Xi Mansion since midnight. If I said that you left early, this old servant would definitely not believe it ¡­ "The Old Master is still waiting to see you one last time ¡­" The big and tall man immediately lifted the curtain and let Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang go up. Ninth Miss, you better sit tight! "


    With a swing of the horsewhip, the horses whined in pain and started to run. The horse carriage flew quickly along the main road, and Xi Jiu Er''s heart sank even more.


    From the looks of it, things were not looking good. Grandfather really doted on her mother, so he doted on her too. If it wasn''t for the existence of Wei Guogong, First Lady would only be a bit fearful. Grandpa ¡­ In his previous life, after his grandfather had died, the First Lady''s attitude towards him had also changed, resulting in the miserable death in his previous life.


    Perhaps it was because he was too nervous, but he gradually lost his consciousness. He could vaguely hear a child''s voice ¡­


    ''Master, don''t be afraid. There will be spring water. As long as you drink it, there won''t be any sickness. Qiu Qiu''s voice sounded, and it was filled with mischievousness: "Master, Qiu Qiu has already put the spring water in your bag."


    She touched her purse and sure enough, there was something inside. That''s right, how could she forget about the spring water? With spring water, Grandpa''s illness can be cured! Xi Jiu Er was unable to suppress the joy and excitement in his heart. He told the carriage driver to hurry up ¡­ Heaven bless you, there must be time.


    ''Master, this is what Qiu Qiu should do.'' Qiu Qiu replied somewhat embarrassedly.


    At the Duke''s Palace, Xi Jiu Er rushed to Wei Guogong''s bedside like an arrow. Seeing the old man who was dying on the bed, Xi Jiu Er''s tears immediately started rolling down: "Grandfather, Grandfather, Jiu Er is here, Jiu Er is here, Jiu Er has brought the holy water that she requested from the temple, the host said that it can cure all illnesses. Grandfather will definitely live to a hundred years old if he drinks it."


    The old man on the bed was already so emaciated from his illness that he could no longer feel his breath as he lay on the bed, as if he were about to die in the next moment. Xi Jiu Er tremblingly took out the small porcelain bottle from her bag and poured all the spring water from the bottle into the servant''s mouth. No one in the room could bear to tell her that the holy water that could cure all diseases in this world must have been deceived.


    "Grandfather?" Xi Jiu Er cried out in joy: "You''re awake?"


    A sweet and delicious liquid flowed through his limbs and bones, driving his fatigue and pain out of his body bit by bit. Gradually, his body started to react and he was no longer dizzy.


    "Jiu Er..."


    "Grandfather, how does it feel to have Jiu Er here? Is there anything wrong with your body? Are you feeling better? " A few questions confused Wei Guogong. The servant at the side hurriedly said, "Ninth Miss, please let the Old Master calm down. The Old Master is ¡­ "This is ¡­" This is the last glimmer of time.


    "Hehe, I feel much better, my body doesn''t hurt anymore, and I don''t even feel dizzy anymore ¡­" Old Zhang, help me up. " Wei Guogong felt that his entire body was indescribably relaxed, his entire being was refreshed and his voice was loud, he did not look like a patient that had reached the terminal stage.


    "Grandfather, Jiu Er is here." Xi Jiu Er immediately stepped forward and put on the old man''s shoes, supporting his extremely thin and weak arm, he walked around the room a few times, shocking everyone, Old Zhang was both surprised and happy at the same time as he went to find a doctor.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that the spring water had an effect and was thankful: "It really is the Holy Water that works. Grandfather won''t be sick anymore after drinking it. It''s really effective."


    "Holy water?" Wei Guogong asked puzzledly.


    The doctor had already instructed the Servant to prepare the aftermath of the battle. Old Zhang thought that the Old Master would send someone to fetch the Miss over if he liked the, and the Miss came over and fed the Old Master some holy water. Then the Old Master would be fine. The servant was so overjoyed that he had forgotten the rules. He laughed as he wiped away his tears.

 C11

    "Oh?" Wei Guogong has lived for a long time and has not been able to cure his illness since young. After interviewing many famous doctors in the world, they all agreed that the illness could not be cured and was cured by the so-called Holy Water? Is the holy water real or fake? If it was true, then how could he explain it now?


    Elder Zhang had already dragged the white-haired old man over. The old doctor''s carriage had already traveled quite a distance before being called back. The old doctor was very unhappy. Why would she let him come over to take a look when he was about to die? He had already instructed them to prepare for the future. Did they not have long ears? Did they not want him to come over to help them prepare for the future? How could he endure this sort of torture at his age? It would cost him his life, but he would still be buried along with him.


    The old doctor walked into the room, his eyes almost popping out when he saw who it was. He couldn''t be that his old eyes were blurry, could it be that someone who was about to die was standing right in front of him, it was impossible. Rubbing his eyes, the old doctor asked tremblingly, "What, what, what is going on?"


    "Old doctor, quickly go check on our old man''s condition ¡­" Old Zhang rubbed her hands in worry.


    The old doctor only regained his senses after a long time, his expression immediately became serious, and signaled the Wei Guogong to sit down. Seeing Wei Guogong walk over and sitting down, his eyelids twitched. In the blink of an eye, Madame could already walk on the floor. All diseases were cured immediately?


    This pulse examination was nothing serious, but it once again caused the old doctor to say in disbelief, "Sick ¡­" Sick... All complete... "How is this possible, how is this possible, this is too unbelievable."


    Only after hearing the doctor''s diagnosis did Elder Zhang and the others heave a sigh of relief. They were as shocked as if they were doctors. That holy water was actually so magical, and it saved the old man who was on the verge of death. It was too inconceivable!


    Wei Guogong was also extremely shocked in her heart. Everyone wanted to live, including him, and many doctors said that he relied on her tenacious willpower to last until now. Only he knew that he wanted to live! In just a short day, Wei Guogong felt that she had gone from death to survival, and it was even more exciting than killing her enemies in battle.


    "May I ask what kind of prescription Wei Guogong used for this disease?" the doctor asked, his eyes wide.


    The Wei Guogong''s calm and forceful voice transmitted over: "There is no such thing as a good formula. It''s just that I dreamt of the late emperor, and the late emperor called upon me for my contributions to the Zhou Dynasty to cure all my illnesses." This explanation immediately made everyone present dumbstruck, and Xi Jiu Er was even happier. As expected, the older the better, what could that doctor say?


    Sure enough, the doctor only opened his mouth and did not refute. He only stammered, "The late emperor appeared to be blessed with great fortune, and was deeply blessed by the late emperor."


    "All of you better remember this. You are not allowed to divulge any details of what happened today. My illness is only cured because I dreamt of the late emperor. If anyone outside were to speak of holy water, all of you should be careful of that little life." Wei Guogong looked around at the servants with a calm face, his aged face had an imposing manner to it.


    Do not think that the Wei Guogong is easy to deal with, she is an old general who has gone to the battlefield to kill enemies, she is ruthless. The servants were already familiar with his temper, and did not dare to resist at all. They kneeled on the ground and said in unison, "Servant (Servant) knows."


    "Very good, all of you can go now. I have something to discuss with Miss." Wei Guogong pushed everyone, and Liu Xiang followed along. There were only two people in the room, Xi Jiu Er and Wei Guogong.


    Wei Guogong pulled Xi Jiu Er along to sit and look at her expression. She realised that her qi and blood was not bad, and she seemed to be a different person compared to the young girl she had met in the past. It seemed that she was living a good life in Xi Family. The Wei Guogong was slightly gratified. In his entire life, she was only a daughter, and she never expected that after marrying the Xi Family, he would actually die in childbirth, leaving behind a baby daughter who had passed away.


    Originally, he had planned to take her into the Wei Guogong Palace to accompany him. He was already old, and hoped that he could have a granddaughter to accompany him in the remaining years. Unfortunately, not only did the Xi Family repeatedly stop him from doing so, he also declared repeatedly that he would take good care of Xi Jiu Er. When he was young, all of his illnesses would recur, and he would be able to endure his stubbornness ¡­ He thought that he would never see Xi Jiu Er again!


    "Jiu Er, tell Grandfather, how did you get the water Grandfather drank?" Wei Guogong was not stupid, she asked with a serious face.


    Xi Jiu Er sighed in her heart. In her previous life, she felt that the Wei Guogong was stern, unsmiling, cold, overbearing and emotionless, so she rejected Wei Guogong''s attempts to approach the Duke''s Palace to take care of her. In her previous life, she thought that she would live a better life in the Xi Family.


    Looking at the concerned gaze, she felt her heart warm. Her grandfather was the closest relative she had ever trusted the most. She really wanted to tell him about the matters in space, but she couldn''t. At least, it wasn''t the right time yet. She calmly met the Wei Guogong''s wise and old eyes, and said sincerely: "Grandfather, that water was obtained by Jiu Er by chance. I never thought that it would have such an effect, I just wanted to give it a try, I never thought that it would actually cure Grandfather''s illness."


    Those clear eyes did not seem to be lying. Wei Guogong''s heart sank, "Then how did you get the water? Who gave it to you? "


    Xi Jiu Er knew the concerns of the Wei Guogong. If this matter were to be spread out, she was afraid that she would be pushed into a crisis. Her heart was moved. Grandfather, don''t worry. Only I know of this water, and only I have this water. As long as Grandfather does not reveal it, no one will know. "


    This time, Wei Guogong''s face became gloomy, and she nodded her head, "Grandfather will not tell anyone else."


    The grandfather and grandson cleverly moved the topic over to Wei Guogong and asked: "How were you doing in Xi Family?" Even though he was a boor, he knew the tricks behind the mansion. Those women were willing to do anything for status, similar to those harem women.


    "Grandfather, don''t worry. I''ve already grown up and will protect myself. As long as Grandfather is well, you will be what Jiu Er relies on ¡­ " Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly, her eyebrows filled with confidence. Not only did she believe her, she also believed that her new grandson, Wei Guogong, was capable of gaining experience, and that there was nothing bad about it.


    "Jiu Er has grown up!" Wei Guogong smiled with gratification: "If Xi''er sees that you are so sensible, she would also be very happy."


    Xi Er ¡­ mother... Although she didn''t have any impression of her own mother, she still thought that if he was still alive, he would still love her dearly! Every time she saw the First Lady cherishing her daughters, she could not help but feel jealous. If only her mother was still alive, she would have been spoiled and spoiled by him.


    "Grandpa ¡­" I really want to tell Grandfather that mother was harmed by First Lady, but she doesn''t have evidence, and she doesn''t want Grandfather to feel sad, so let Grandfather always think that mother died in childbirth. Let her take revenge for the mother! Xi Jiu Er threw herself into the Wei Guogong''s embrace, and said with a choked of sobs, "Grandfather, Jiu Er just hopes for you to be well, and watch Jiu Er get married and have children, okay!?"


    Seeing that she did not like her granddaughter''s intimate relationship with him, Wei Guogong''s heart softened. He patted her and teased, "Yo, our Jiu Er is finally thinking of marrying someone. Don''t worry, Grandfather still wants to see Jiu Er''s child, and even wants to teach him some martial arts." To marry Jiu Er was his only wish so far.


    "Grandpa ¡­" Jiu Er said in a spoiled manner, it felt really good.

 C12

    When the Xi Mansion heard that the Wei Guogong''s body was fine, the happiest person was Xi Hong Sheng. As long as the Wei Guogong was around, he would be able to use the Wei Guogong''s name to her advantage, and she wished for nothing more than for the Wei Guogong to live for a hundred years.


    The most unhappy person was First Lady. As long as he was here, she would not be able to hold Xi Jiu Er down ¡­ In the past few days, there had been rumors that Xi Wan Rong liked the Prince Xian, and he even undressed himself for the Prince Xian. This news came quickly and was impossible to guard against in First Lady and the others.


    "Who spread it!" Her daughter was going to marry into the palace in the future. Her reputation was ruined, so why would His Majesty favor her? Xi Wan Rong''s eyes were already red. Who was it? Who else could make her suffer? Other than Xi Jiu Er, there was no one else.


    "mother, it must be Xi Jiu Er who dares to do this. Only she doesn''t want her daughter to have a good life. Her daughter hates her." It could be said that he hated her.


    First Lady was suspicious: "Are you sure it''s what Xi Jiu Er said?"


    "I''m sure, mother, think about it. Those who know about this matter, you have already forgiven them and forbade them from spreading the news. Big Sister Feng will not harm me, I am her own sister!" Xi Wan Rong analyzed for the First Lady: "The only one left is Xi Jiu Er, if the mother isn''t talking about her, who else could it be?"


    "Madame ¡ª Ninth Miss has returned ¡­ They went to the old Madame. " The servant outside reported.


    "I understand. You can leave now." The First Lady turned to Xi Wan Rong and said, "Don''t cause trouble for the mother, I will help you settle your matters."


    "mother, what don''t you understand? Unless she is someone else?" Xi Wan Rong said angrily.


    "Child, you always need to talk about seeking evidence, if there is no evidence, you can just say that Xi Jiu Er is spreading the rumors, and the mother is the mistress of the Xi Family, you can''t possibly punish someone without proof, right?" First Lady felt that one day at home was enough to annoy her. This little girl did not help him relax.


    "But ¡ª" Xi Wan Rong was about to say something when he was interrupted by the First Lady, "Alright, you can leave for now. You''re my biological daughter, don''t tell me I''m going to harm you?"


    Xi Wan Rong knew he could not speak further, and unwillingly continued, "Alright ¡­ That daughter will be leaving first! "


    "Go." First Lady held her forehead and helplessly said. Wang Ma immediately walked over and pressed onto the flesh at her temple that was not light at all. First Lady comfortably closed his eyes and let out a long sigh: "This child is half as sensible as her elder sister."


    "Hehe, this is where Miss Rong is truly cute ¡­ Miss Rong is still young, we will know how thoughtful and considerate she is in the future. " After rubbing it for a while, Wang Ma seemed to have fallen asleep, but she heard First Lady say: "Do you think this matter is Xi Jiu Er''s doing?"


    "This... This old servant thinks not, don''t you know about Ninth Miss? It''s just that he had an irritable temper, but his brain wasn''t that good to use ¡­ That Medicine Madame is still worried? This old servant had people sneaking in some every day ¡­ In less than a year or two ¡­ " The Wang Ma spoke in a very low voice at the end.


    "You already used it?" First Lady raised his eyebrows.


    "Yes ¡­" Madame will not blame this old servant for taking the initiative to do so ¡­ " Wang Ma immediately said: "This old servant was wrong, I ask Madame to punish me."


    The First Lady smiled: What punishment do I not know about you? It was time to make a move ¡­ This little girl you mentioned suddenly had a huge change in personality. Could it be related to that medicine? " She heard that people who used this pill had tempers that fluctuated between good and bad. Gradually, they began to go crazy!


    "It might be possible, who could have changed so much all of a sudden? "I really can''t think of any other reason." Wang Ma shook her head.


    "Forget it, forget it ¡­" "We''ll see when the time comes." First Lady replied in a slightly exhausted manner.


    With a darkened face, Xi Wan Rong became a rapist in the garden, treating the flower in his hand as if it were Xi Jiu Er''s nemesis. When the servant, Si Ping, saw his master like this, she whispered: "Miss, why don''t we go to the old Madame? When the old Madame loves you, she will definitely make the decision for you.


    "That''s right, Grandmother dotes on me the most, and she will definitely not let me suffer any grievances." With that, Xi Wan Rong went to find the old Madame. Outside the hut, the voices of the old Madame and Xi Jiu Er could be heard. Xi Wan Rong was immediately furious, he raised the curtain and rushed out.


    "Miss Rong ¡­" The servant wanted to pull her away, but she had already walked into the room with her long skirt draped over her shoulders.


    "Grandmother, you have to avenge your granddaughter, wuwu ¡­" Xi Wan Rong had not even seen the situation clearly before he started complaining to the old Madame. Once he shouted, he started crying, which was hard for everyone to defend against, especially the old Madame, whose old face immediately flushed red.


    Xi Wan Rong cried: "Grandmother, it''s Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er is spreading rumors and talking about me ¡­ Tell Me... Undress Your Highness... Grandmother has to seek justice for her granddaughter, what else can we do about her reputation? " She was crying and acting coquettishly. The old Madame stared at Xi Wan Rong with a green face, hoping that his granddaughter would not make a fool of herself at this time, so Xi Wan Rong only thought that must have deceived him, if not why would he not love him?


    "Elder Sister Rong, if you say such nonsense, you will use it to wrongly accuse me!" Xi Jiu Er said in an extremely aggrieved manner. However, she did not blink towards Xi Wan Rong under her sleeves and revealed a naughty smile.


    "You! "Who else could it be other than you ¡­" Xi Wan Rong shouted in anger.


    "Enough!" A short table beside the old Madame slammed down. "Enough with your nonsense."


    "Grandmother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong''s tears were flowing down her face uncontrollably, as if they were beads with a broken string. Grandmother didn''t like her anymore. A provocative gaze shot over, and Xi Wan Rong threw a slap towards Xi Jiu Er without thinking too much.


    Even though Xi Jiu Er was mentally prepared, she was still struck hard until his ears rang. His eyes blossomed and fell on the corner of the table beside him, on top of Old Zhang, Old Zhang''s voice was loud and clear, "Miss, are you alright?"


    Xi Wan Rong''s body trembled. Only now did she realise that there was an unfamiliar half elderly man standing beside Xi Jiu Er. She was startled: "Who is this?" In the next moment, she knew it. She could hear the voice that was filled with energy, as if it was going to penetrate the house. "Old Madame Xi, this is the precious treasure of our Prince Fu.


    Prince Fu? Then did this person come from the Wei Guogong''s residence? Xi Wan Rong was not afraid to only say: "It''s Xi Jiu Er''s fault, she spread the rumors and slandered me."


    "Nonsense!" Old Madame almost died of anger. Heavens, what kind of granddaughter was this! mother of joy immediately went over and said: "Miss Rong, this old servant just remembered that you asked this old servant to buy it last time ¡­" As he said that, he dragged Xi Wan Rong out, and could faintly hear Xi Wan Rong''s angry voice: "Let go, let go!" Old Madame Xi, your esteemed palace has truly broadened everyone''s horizons ¡­ Although it was true that her elder sister had taught her a lesson, it was also fine that she would accuse someone wrongly just like that. In my Miss, only the doors of the Duke''s Palace do not open, and only accompany the Prince Fu throughout the entire day. Old Zhang said aggressively.


    "Jiu Er is right, any woman that encounters such a thing would lose all reason ¡­ Jiu Er, the Grandmother will make the decision for you now. Men, kneel the Miss Rong down in the Ancestral Hall, you are not allowed to get up without my orders. " The old Madame ordered.


    "Miss, you''re bleeding ¡­" Old Zhang shouted.


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er was indeed bleeding ¡­ "Hiss ¡­" She probably hit the corner of the table just now, causing him to bleed.


    When Old Madame saw that she had sent for a doctor, she was flustered for a bit before she angrily said, "Miss, follow this old servant back to the Duke''s Palace."


    "Haha, Uncle Zhang, you misunderstand. All of this was just an accident, Elder Sister Rong is not like this normally!" If it was in the past, she would definitely ask Uncle Zhang to avenge her, but now, she knew how to protect her own family, and was very sensible.


    "Miss... "You ¡­" Elder Zhang was upset, but he didn''t know what to say. He went back after lunch. The old Madame said in relief, "Jiu Er is sensible now ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er cutely smiled, "In the past, it was Jiu Er who was insensible. The reason that the old Madame was so happy was not just because of that, the things that the Wei Guogong gave her this time were not good. She was so happy that she blossomed, and she knew what the Wei Guogong meant.


    On this side, First Lady would definitely not give Xi Wan Rong a hard time after knowing what had happened. She herself was not a stupid person, why was Xi Wan Rong this daughter as stupid as a pig? He ignored his own words. After being angry for a long time, he still felt sorry for his daughter, so he went to the ancestral hall to look for Xi Wan Rong.


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong said pitifully: "mother, your daughter doesn''t want to kneel anymore. Her knees are hurting."


    "You have to kneel even if it hurts, who told you not to remember. I told you to be good and not listen to me and go find your Grandmother. "If you still haven''t figured it out, you''re just spouting nonsense. Everything has to be proven. No matter how good your words are, they have no basis in your words. Who would believe you?" The First Lady seized this opportunity to properly educate Xi Wan Rong, hoping to learn from this lesson.


    "Yes, your daughter knows she''s wrong. Your daughter won''t be so reckless in the future ¡­" Although Xi Wan Rong said it obediently, she was actually laughing in her heart. This time she miscalculated, next time Xi Jiu Er wouldn''t have such good luck.


    "Kneel for a while, you will have to wait for your Grandmother to calm down." The First Lady''s heart ached, but it was useless. He could only comfort her with a few words before leaving.

 C13

    That night, the old Madame specially arranged food in his room for First Lady and Xi Jiu Er to come over for dinner. Coincidentally, according to usual practice, Xi Hong Sheng decided to stay at the First Lady''s room for dinner. He had heard about what happened during the day. When he came over to see that Xi Jiu Er''s forehead was wrapped in gauze, he only asked with a bit of concern: "Jiu Er, are you alright?"


    As for whether or not Xi Jiu Er was disfigured, as long as it wasn''t Xi Wan Rong, she would be fine. Xi Hong Sheng sat down tiredly and said to the old Madame in her high position: "mother."


    "Hmm, look at how tired you are today. I''ll get the kitchen to prepare some supper for you tonight." The old Madame instructed the First Lady, who immediately nodded his head. She was overjoyed, she even wanted to use this opportunity to get close to Xi Hong Sheng.


    Since Xi Hong Sheng was here, he should be starting a meal, but the old Madame didn''t say anything. She just stared at Xi Wan Rong with her sharp eyes that made Xi Wan Rong''s scalp go numb, as she sat on the chair with her head on her chest for a long time without uttering a word.


    The atmosphere instantly froze. First Lady clenched his teeth in pain, but he still didn''t want to stand up and apologize to Xi Jiu Er. On what basis was that? It was Xi Jiu Er, this little slut, who had caused all this trouble.


    Xi Wan Rong had initially thought that since the Old Madame doted on her, he wouldn''t force her in the end, so he made up his mind to get over this matter. If he were to lower his head and admit his wrongs this time, how could he still raise his head in front of Xi Jiu Er? He lowered his head, revealing a wronged expression. Old Madame''s face turned darker and darker.


    In her impression, although Xi Wan Rong was a bit more dainty, he was still a good child. She would listen to anything he said, and she wouldn''t be so unreasonable at times. It was true that she loved Xi Wan Rong, and she hoped that Xi Wan Rong would be the real deal.


    It was a pity that Xi Wan Rong''s performance made her too dissatisfied and disgraced, and her own son even wanted to give her face, yet she, her little granddaughter, didn''t even give her face. Hmph, looking left and right at Xi Wan Rong made her feel uncomfortable.


    First Lady pinched the table hard, causing Xi Wan Rong to grimace in pain: "mother ¡­"


    "Didn''t you hear the orders from the Grandmother? If you don''t obey, I''ll make you kneel in the Ancestral Hall and reflect on it. " The matter of kneeling in the ancestral hall was something that her daughter hated the most. First Lady warned Xi Wan Rong with her eyes to be obedient, otherwise, even she would have no choice when it came to punishing him.


    When Xi Wan Rong heard about kneeling down at the Ancestral Hall, his expression changed. He clenched his teeth and stood up to apologize to Xi Jiu Er, "Ninth Sister, I''m sorry. Xi Wan Rong said very unwillingly.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly, and said very generously: "Hehe, Elder Sister Rong has an impatient personality, it''s my sister who should have provoked Elder Sister Rong.


    Xi Wan Rong''s tone of voice could tell that he was not apologizing, but instead that he was being generous and proper. Apologizing was not as awkward or fake as Xi Wan Rong''s, and his words sounded very sincere.


    "Hehe, our Jiu Er is so sensible." Compared to her, she still felt that Xi Jiu Er was docile and obedient. She purposely praised Xi Jiu Er as firstly, because she really liked him, and secondly, as a warning to Xi Wan Rong.


    "Yes." Why did Xi Wan Rong feel that Xi Jiu Er''s apology sounded so ear-piercing? He said that his temper was too impetuous and he shouldn''t have provoked him ¡­ She snorted and sat down grumbling unwillingly, "She already said that she provoked me. Why should I apologize?"


    "Rong Er." First Lady felt that her daughter had been completely reared by him, how could this kind of flower be said in front of so many people? Even if he complained, he could only complain in his heart. She did not know how to respond to that, and quickly replied the old Madame who had changed her expression: "mother, Rong Er knows her wrongs, hehe, don''t you understand her? "Sometimes, it''s just that you''re a bit outspoken."


    Xi Hong Sheng who was at the side did not seem to have made any progress in Xi Wan Rong''s cultivation after so many years. Look at Xi Jiu Er, she already knew when to advance and when to retreat, but Xi Wan Rong had not changed one bit! This was too disappointing.


    "Rong Er, I apologize to your Grandmother." Xi Hong Sheng shouted.


    Xi Wan Rong felt wronged and tears welling up in her eyes. Wow, everyone is staring at that little bitch today right? Grandmother was right, father was right, did mother and his sister think that they were doing the wrong thing? Xi Wan Rong was not convinced, she stood up and shouted: "I am not apologizing, I am not wrong, the one at fault is her, it''s her, everything is a scheme of hers, it''s her."


    "It''s overturning, it''s overturning ¡­" The old Madame was so angry that she almost wanted to ascend to heaven. Was this granddaughter of hers overturning the heavens today? Do you even put her, the Grandmother, in your eyes? This really pissed her off, pissed her off.


    "Old Madame ¡­" When mother of joy saw the old Madame''s unsightly expression, she immediately went forward to vent her anger, and Xi Jiu Er plopped down on her knees in front of the old Madame, choking with sobs: "It''s my granddaughter, she was the one who angered Elder Sister Rong. Elder Sister Rong is right, don''t be angry, Grandmother can say whatever you want to punish."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face was full of guilt. Compared to Xi Wan Rong''s anger, no one needed to know who exactly was the likable one. Xi Wan Rong stared at Xi Jiu Er in dissatisfaction.


    "Kneel." The First Lady dragged her in front of the old Madame and scolded her: "Quickly apologize to the Grandmother."


    First Lady had a headache, why did this matter become more and more intense? This carefree daughter of hers was too much of a headache for her, she couldn''t help but think that she should believe in Xi Jiu Er. She knew the temper of her daughter, it was normal for her to be angry at her and hit people, and this time, she guessed that it was Rong Er''s fault.


    Xi Wan Rong held his breath and said: "It''s not my fault, it''s Xi Jiu Er. Don''t be fooled by her. She was just pretending."


    "Shut up!" Xi Hong Sheng could no longer endure and directly slapped him: "You actually dare to make such a ruckus in front of Grandmother, is this how your mother teaches you? Did our Xi Family give birth to such a daughter? If I don''t teach him a lesson today, won''t he be overturning the heavens? "


    This time, Xi Wan Rong was completely infuriated with Xi Hong Sheng, what kind of daughter was he raising and she was shouting and yelling in front of the Grandmother, how was he going to continue being a human in the future? The mother would also blame him.


    The old Madame did not speak as the mother of joy helped Xi Jiu Er up. Xi Jiu Er stood up fearfully, looking like she was about to cry! The old Madame pulled her closer and said indifferently, "Why are you crying? Even if you are at fault, you have done your duty very well." Furthermore, Xi Wan Rong did not do her job well.


    When First Lady saw that her own daughter had been beaten up, she could not say anything. Old Madame and Master had both said that Rong Er had lost her duty to pamper her, and at this time, she was probably going to be punished even for herself.


    Xi Jiu Er covered her face as she looked at Xi Hong Sheng in disbelief. Her father actually hit her for Xi Jiu Er, this was really too much. Her father no longer doted on her and didn''t believe her anymore. Tears rolled down her cheeks and First Lady''s heart almost broke.


    "Go, I want to serve the family law today." The moment Xi Hong Sheng said this, the First Lady couldn''t help but yell out. Xi Wan Feng said anxiously: "Father, little sister already knows her wrongs, please forgive her this time."


    Xi Jiu Er''s tears started to flow down: "Old Madame, please forgive Elder Sister Rong, this is my fault. If it''s my fault, you can punish Jiu Er for it." That look really made her wish that she could do it for Xi Wan Rong.


    "This child is really ¡­" The old Madame sighed and said indifferently, "Alright, what are you trying to do with the family rules, Rong Er still needs to be taught properly. Why don''t you just let her copy the Diamond Sutra for me a hundred times! If you want to hand it in, just wait ten days from now. "


    Unfortunately, even if he didn''t want to, he still had to. The family rules were not a joke.


    First Lady immediately knew that this was the step that the Old Madame had found for her, and immediately shouted angrily at Xi Wan Rong: "What are you still standing there for, quickly thank you, Grandmother.


    Xi Wan Rong also knew that if he continued to be this willful, there would be no good outcome, so he could only hide his unwillingness and pretend to be grateful: "Yes, it''s his granddaughter''s fault, it''s his granddaughter''s recklessness. I beg Grandmother and father''s forgiveness for the human nature of his granddaughter, my granddaughter will never dare to do it again."


    Only then did First Lady heave a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that his daughter was sensible, otherwise, the family law would be inevitable today. Exhaling a long breath, First Lady felt his entire body collapsing.


    At this time, Xi Mao had already been brought down by someone, and was afraid of scaring the child.


    "Grandmother, your granddaughter is going to copy the Buddhist scriptures with big sister." Xi Jiu Er knelt down and begged the old Madame. The old Madame smiled and said, "Good child, since you have such thoughts, I, this old woman, will not hold you back."


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Xi Wan Rong guiltily. Xi Wan Rong could clearly see the ridicule in her eyes, and was so angry that she almost jumped up, but luckily, she was held back by Xi Wan Feng.


    Everyone thought that since the internal conflict had happened, there was nothing left to eat. Only Xi Jiu Er ate happily, how could they say that, Xi Wan Rong''s eyes were like daggers shooting towards them, the more she ate the happier she was. In the end, the old Madame put down her chopsticks and unhappily said, "I''m full. mother of joy, help me back to my room."

 C14

    "Yes ¡­" It''s my fault. " First Lady bit her lips and agreed. She also felt that her daughter being raised was a bit too, but was it not Xi Hong Sheng who allowed it? He had doted on Rong Er before, and in the past, when he had wanted to use the method of rearing the phoenix, Rong Er had managed to avoid him. In the end, wasn''t Xi Hong Sheng still responsible for his actions?


    "Father... "Your daughter knows she''s wrong. Your daughter will never dare to do that again ¡­" Xi Wan Rong immediately admitted his mistakes when he saw mother pampering himself so much because he suffered so much.


    "You don''t dare in the future? I hope you''ll keep your promise. " Xi Hong Sheng glared at Xi Xi Wan Rong in dissatisfaction and pointed at Jiu Er: "You just have to follow your sister and learn from her. Take a look at your sister''s temper in the past, how much has she changed now? As for you, you still haven''t changed at all. "


    Xi Wan Rong was at a loss for words. How could they compare himself to a little disgrace like Xi Xiu Er? Father is so infuriating! However, Xi Wan Rong could only bite her teeth and endure it. First Lady hurriedly apologized in error, "Master, it''s all my fault. Then he turned to Xi Jiu Er and said: "Jiu Er is smart, in the future, if Rong Er has anything that she is sorry about, tell it to mother, and this mother will make the decision for you."


    "Hehe ¡­" Jiu Er is really a sensible daughter. " She carefully observed Xi Jiu Er''s expression and realized that her eyes were sincere and there was no change in them. Could it be that she really did not do this on purpose? But she had no choice but to believe in her daughter''s words. A while ago, Rong Er had already told her that Xi Jiu Er had changed. Not only did she threaten her, she had even almost destroyed her face.


    Xi Jiu Er had watched herself grow up, so even if she changed again, there was no way something as earth-shaking as this would happen in just a few short days. She would not believe it.


    "Rong Er, learn from your sister." Xi Hong Sheng said unhappily, he then stood up and brought the servant away. First Lady was startled, what did he mean, was he not staying in his own room? First Lady didn''t want to give up such a rare opportunity. He stood up with a bitter face, "Master, I have prepared your favorite pastries ¡­" It meant that he wouldn''t be able to understand it anymore.


    "No need." Xi Hong Sheng looked like he was in a bad mood, and left without looking back.


    First Lady looked at her husband''s leaving figure in a daze. At this moment, she even hated her own daughter, which was only for a few days every month.


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Feng walked up and pulled on First Lady''s sleeves without leaving a trace. This was not their courtyard, it was the old Madame''s courtyard, and First Lady immediately recovered from his shock and regained his previous expression, as he faintly smiled and said with some difficulty, "I''m a little tired, Jiu Er, I''ll be returning first."


    "Alright mother." Xi Jiu Er quickly stood up and said.


    Just like that, First Lady brought Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong back to the courtyard. First Lady immediately shouted, "Kneel down right now!"


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong had thought that she would be comforted by her mother when she returned, but when she returned, not only was she not comforted, she was also forced to kneel.


    "Weep, you only know how to cry." First Lady said with an expression of disappointment: "Look at your appearance today. Look at how you angered Old Madame and your father ¡­"


    "mother, don''t be angry at your little sister, she said that it was Xi Jiu Er who instigated the whole thing and it can''t be wrong. mother, your daughter thinks that this Xi Jiu Er is different." Xi Wan Feng frowned: "The past where she was impulsive and impulsive has changed. Didn''t the current mother notice that she was becoming calmer and calmer? Is it getting harder and harder to grasp? "


    Mad Wan wanted to say that it was getting more and more fake, but she couldn''t put her finger on it. She knew that the mother wouldn''t believe her, and even she couldn''t believe that a person''s personality could change so much in such a short period of time. Especially someone as stubborn as Xi Jiu Er, she actually behaved so obediently all of a sudden?


    "Is that so?" If she were to be obedient, she might actually marry a good person. In the future, there would be hope for the future as well, and if she were to be angered, she would definitely not end up like this. Perhaps, she would understand this logic and change her mind.


    "No matter what, Rong Er is going too far this time. Even if something happens in the future, he has to endure it. Seeing how you angered your Grandmother today, and how your father is angered, even if she has to apologize, he will definitely not lose a piece of your flesh! " First Lady was extremely angry: "In the future, you are someone who will accomplish great things. Look at what you have done, for such a small thing you have done it to this extent, do you not have the demeanor of a Xi Family?"


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong still wanted to say something, but was abruptly interrupted by the First Lady. "Go back and copy the Buddhist scriptures for me, don''t be careless."


    "Oh." When Xi Wan Rong saw the ice like eyes of the First Lady, he became completely terrified, and could only agree, and then the First Lady sent the Wang Ma to supervise Xi Wan Rong. This time, the old Madame was already very angry.


    Xi Wan Rong went back to his courtyard to vent his anger, it was only then did he calm down, truly angering her to death. Slut, slut, I won''t let you have a good life, definitely! It was all her fault, it was all her fault!


    After Xi Jiu Er returned to her residence, she immediately closed her eyes and said that she would need to calm her mind and copy the Buddhist scriptures in the next few days. When the old Madame received the news, she was very happy. In a while, Xi Wan Rong also followed suit and went into closed door cultivation, and said that she wanted to calmly copy the information. The old Madame snorted and did not make a sound.


    In less than three days, Xi Jiu Er had finished copying the Buddhist scriptures. Old Madame took it and looked at it in astonishment. But she had copied it in just a few days?


    "Ninth Miss, it has only been three days and you have already finished writing ¡­ "This, this is too ¡­" Mother Xia was stunned. Looking at the Diamond Sutra, she did not believe that Xi Jiu Er wrote it at all.


    "Hehe, it was indeed written by me. I probably wrote it unknowingly because I entered a meditative state." What Xi Jiu Er meant by entering a meditative state was that once a person reached a certain point, they would forget the time. The old Madame believed that when she meditated for two hours, she had actually scared the old Madame.


    "Heh ¡­" Seeing your bruises right now, you probably haven''t had a good rest, so go back and rest. " The old Madame looked at him warmly and instructed Xi Jiu Er to return quickly.


    After Xi Jiu Er left, the mother of joy asked. "Old Madame, do you think that the Ninth Miss is lying?"


    "I recognize her calligraphy. It''s true." Xi Jiu Er''s words were very recognizable. Back then, she didn''t even want to teach her the naughty teacher of the academy, so her calligraphy looked very terrible. But now, he felt that he had improved a lot. This child must be trying to contact him privately.


    "Humph!" The old Madame thought of something and suddenly let out a cold snort. There was probably someone who did not even manage to move a single word.


    This Xi Wan Rong truly did not write a single word, when she heard that Xi Jiu Er had finished writing, she was completely dumbfounded, Wang Ma had long seen through her thoughts, it just went by! But in the end, it still had to be written!


    "Miss, quickly write it. You should go out as soon as possible." Wang Ma felt that it was really tiring for him to supervise Xi Wan Rong in copying the scriptures.


    "Humph!" When she thought about how Xi Jiu Er could obtain her freedom so quickly, she was really unreconciled. She thought that she would need to write for at least a month! She pursed her lips in dissatisfaction as she thought about how she would expose this matter. Otherwise, she would say that she was sick.


    Xi Wan Rong was lucky, on the sixth day of writing, the house received an invitation from the Princess Rongwang, and invited the Xi Family to enjoy the flowers. The old Madame had no choice but to release Xi Wan Rong and said that she would wait for her to come back before she continued writing.


    In the past, Xi Jiu Er had forbidden her to go because she had humiliated herself quite a bit during these banquets, so she didn''t want her to go as well. Hence, she didn''t want her to go because she felt that it was too shameful about it so she didn''t want her to go.


    When the First Lady heard the news, she could only laugh lightly. When the time came, under the support of her two daughters, she would initially think that Xi Jiu Er was only so-so.


    "Remember, this time you have to keep a straight face and restrain your temper. When that happens, when you lose face, come back and see how your Grandmother has avoided you." First Lady reminded her as she dressed up her daughter.


    Xi Wan Rong was so happy that he didn''t need to copy any Buddhist scriptures anymore.

 C15

    Princess Rongwang? In his previous life, Xi Jiu Er did not have much of an impression of this wangfei, he only knew that her health was not good, and that after she gave birth to her daughter, she would never get pregnant again. ex-sister-in-law heard that the ''Poria cocos king'' could help increase the effectiveness of pregnancy, but it was easy to find Poria Cocos.


    When the Princess Rongwang''s invitation came to the Xi Family, she started to prepare the gifts for the Princess Rongwang. Thus, they went to the pharmacy, and went through many small and large pharmacies, but they were unable to find a suitable Poria Cocos. Xi Jiu Er was simply not satisfied with it at all, she had been preparing this gift for several days already, and when the news came to the First Lady, she could not help but sneer.


    "Hmph, I really didn''t expect that she would plan to send medicinal herbs. How unlucky." Xi Wan Rong curled her lips and taunted: "I actually want to see how she will embarrass herself when she falls to the ground."


    On the other hand, Xi Wan Feng''s thoughts were on another side. As the saying goes, giving gifts or not caught her attention, but this action of Xi Jiu Er''s caught her attention. Princess Rongwang had always wanted to have children. Everyone had seen it, maybe she could find a way to give birth to a son to Princess Rongwang.


    First Lady did not care about Xi Jiu Er at all. To her, Xi Jiu Er disgracing herself was her favorite, since it was like this, Xi Jiu Er did not even need her to help him, she was already very infamous. This was all her own creation, she was still the virtuous wife and Madame in front of outsiders.


    "mother, what did you prepare for us this time?" Every time Xi Wan Rong went out to socialize, she would always prepare a gift meticulously prepared by the First Lady, and this time was no exception.


    "Don''t worry, the has already prepared something for you. You can bring it with you when the time comes." The First Lady smiled slightly. Xi Wan Feng looked at the happy mother and daughter and suddenly felt as if she was not his biological daughter. She knew that he was not good-looking, so she put her heart into poetry and poetry and gained the title of talented girl.


    But Xi Wan Rong? She did not need to do anything to have everything. She even received the love of the old Madame, the love of the mother, the love of her father ¡­ He easily obtained the title of ''number one beauty''. And it would take a long time for her to get it.


    She told herself that Xi Wan Rong was her own sister, the blood sister of her compatriots. Xi Wan Feng returned to her courtyard tiredly. As long as mother and her sister were together, she would always feel that she was unnecessary. It''s always been like this...


    "Great Miss, look, the Miss is back ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng raised her head. As expected, it was Xi Jiu Er and the servant Liu Xiang.


    At this time, Xi Jiu Er finally found the dried Poria Cocos Vine. She planned to grow it in space at night, she didn''t know whether the Poria Cocos is good or not, with the spring water, it shouldn''t be too bad.


    That day, Xi Wan Rong would get up early to dress herself. To her, dressing up so beautifully compared to everyone else was the most important mystery. After Si Ping finished tidying her up, he couldn''t help but exclaim in surprise: "Miss, you''re really too beautiful.


    Xi Wan Rong was not only filled with pride, she was also thinking about where she would be the center of attention in Princess Rongwang. She was the number one beauty ¡­ Xi Wan Rong thought as he raised his proud chin.


    The moment he stepped out of the door, he saw Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng''s attire was also very exquisite, but it was far from being as beautiful as Xi Wan Rong''s. When they stood together, it had lost its luster and luster. Xi Wan Feng''s face froze, mother was really biased, she did not have a bracelet, her hair ornaments were nothing, there was nothing at all, but Old Madame still gave him some of her jewelry, one look was enough to tell that she was a little old.


    "Elder sister, let''s go." Xi Wan Rong said sweetly.


    Xi Wan Feng smiled slightly: "Sure."


    When they found out that Xi Jiu Er was not even there, they became displeased and pouted, "Why is it so late? Let the two of us wait for her together, she ¡­" Before she could even finish, she heard Xi Wan Rong shouting in shock. Xi Wan Feng immediately turned to look, to her shock, she saw Xi Jiu Er with her, dressed in a sky blue cheongsam, walking over at a moderate pace.


    Xi Jiu Er, still the same Xi Jiu Er, was wearing a new dress, the color was a little tacky. Xi Wan Feng guessed that mother must have brought the old silk cloth from the past to Xi Jiu Er, but Sky Cyan was definitely more than suitable to wear on her body. Xi Wan Feng looked at Xi Jiu Er carefully.


    The simple hairpin only had a tender and beautiful flower that looked as if it had just been picked today. There was also a hairpin covered in white hair. Just looking at it, An Ran''s hairpin felt like it was priceless. A lot of headdress pieces appeared in an instant.


    Not only did Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng guess it at the same time, they said that the Wei Family''s dowry for marriage was already set. Seeing that it was so, they had to ask mother to think of ways to get the dowry, and at that time, they would be able to do the same for themselves.


    Xi Wan Rong walked over, the three of them were actually standing at the same level as Xi Wan Rong. Xi Wan Rong did not know that only Xi Wan Feng was looking, but she was shocked, this Xi Jiu Er was actually not standing at the same level as Wan Rong just because she was not dressed up.


    Xi Wan Rong''s eyes swiveled as he tried to figure out a way to get hold of Xi Jiu Er''s treasure ¡­ Xi Jiu Er pursed his lips into a smile, and waited for the two of them to get on the carriage, only then did he get on.


    As the carriage slowly moved forward, Xi Wan Rong''s eyes kept rolling around. Xi Jiu Er pretended not to know anything and asked, "Elder Sister Rong ¡­ How many scriptures have you copied? "


    She was just thinking of adding fuel to the fire for Xi Wan Rong early in the morning. As expected, the moment she asked Xi Wan Rong that question, her face immediately had a stomachache, and was twisted and furious. Because at the same time, Xi Wan Rong couldn''t help but think how unlucky she was that day. She was taught a lesson by the mother, her father, and the Grandmother.


    "Xi Jiu Er, are you deliberately blocking my way?" Xi Wan Rong opened his eyes wide as if he wanted to eat Xi Jiu Er up. Xi Jiu Er was so stunned that his mouth gaped open: "I, I was just thinking of ¡­"


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er lowered his head and smiled. She did not let anyone see it.


    felt that Xi Jiu Er really knew how to pretend. When she was with her, she was like a tigress threatening and ridiculing him, and if anyone else was around her, she would behave like a little rabbit. When she thought about it, Xi Wan Rong would look at her with a face of disgust: "Don''t be like that, who are you showing it to?


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and did not say a word, it seemed that she did not want to argue with Xi Wan Rong anymore. But in Xi Wan Rong''s opinion, the opponent did not refute his words.


    The carriage headed towards the direction of the Duke Rong Palace, and the closer they got, the more carriage they saw. When they arrived, there were already many carriages parked in front of the Duke Rong Palace, Xi Jiu Er got off the carriage and looked around.


    The Rong family was the true royal family, and his grandfather was only an official from the beginning. Just as Xi Wan Rong got off the horse carriage, he saw a lady dressed in a purple dress in front of him.


    "Elder sister Zi Ming, elder sister Zi Ming ¡­" Xi Wan Rong called out crisply, the purple dressed lady in front turned around and smiled: "Little Sister Wan Rong."


    Liu Ye arched her brows, her almond-shaped eyes and nose, and her slightly upturned two mouths made her seem very close to him. The strands of hair in front of her forehead were longer than the ones on the other girls. She was an extremely beautiful girl ¡­ It seemed to be perfect, on par with Xi Wan Rong.


    "Miss Ziming." Xi Wan Feng was older than Xi Wan Rong. She could not call him big sister Zi Ming so casually, with a dignified smile on her face as she greeted him.


    "Hehe, Lady Wan Feng." Zi Ming smiled slightly, his smile was the same as when he saw Xi Wan Rong. Logically speaking, her relationship with Xi Wan Rong should have been better, but she treated Xi Wan Rong the same way, neither being close nor being distant, it was just right. This way, it would seem that Xi Wan Rong was deliberately trying to curry favor with them.


    "This is ¡­" Zi Ming shifted his gaze towards Xi Jiu Er and immediately realised that the Princess Rongwang was inviting the direct daughter, so she must be the Xi Mansion as well! Xi Mansion''s other direct daughter was: "Presumably, this is Miss Jiu Er."


    "It''s really Jiu Er. Miss Zi Ming, you''re very smart. You guessed it right away." Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly, and did not go up to fawn on her. Just now, she had guessed her identity when she was with Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng. Looking back, she could see that quite a few Shangguan Miss s had come one after another.


    Zi Ming didn''t seem to want to go with them, so he simply said, "Let''s go."


    "Wow." said in a clear voice. She looked like an innocent girl, but of course, most of the pretentious parts were also fake. Seeing her raise her chin with a complacent expression, it was as if she was afraid others wouldn''t know that she was the number one beauty.


    Xi Jiu Er quietly followed them to the resting hall. In the hall, there were already maidservants preparing fruits and snacks, and so on, everyone immediately sat down according to the order, but - An awkward scene appeared, the Princess Rongwang did not prepare anything for Xi Jiu Er. She probably thought that Xi Jiu Er would also be grounded this year.


    Some of the Miss s were taking joy in''s misfortune, some were watching the show, some were secretly laughing, some were casting concerned glances at Xi Wan Rong, but seemed to not have seen him talking to the people around him, while Xi Wan Feng was already holding the cup of tea and drinking for a long time.


    Xi Jiu Er sneered in her heart, did she think that she would not embarrass the Xi Family? Humph! Under everyone''s doubtful gaze, Xi Jiu Er left the hall, as they all guessed whether she felt that it was too embarrassing or not. Estimated... The people here are all the direct daughter in the capital, they are all the daughters of powerful and influential families. ''s first wife was also Xi Jiu Er''s biological mother and was the apple of her eyes. This second wife was the current First Lady, a member of the Beeping King family, and the Wang family was also the eldest daughter of a famous family. There was also one of her Third Wife, the Xishan Song family, and also a famous family! In addition to the fact that ''first talented girl'' and ''number one beauty'' had all landed in Xi Family, Xi Family had a lot of face in the capital.

 C16

    It was even more rude for Xi Jiu Er to walk around in the courtyard without the permission of the owner. Xi Jiu Er caught a servant who was passing by and asked her where the Princess Rongwang''s courtyard was, while the servant looked at her from head to toe and respectfully said: "Miss is looking for the wangfei, then I invite Miss and Servant to come."


    This maidservant thought that if this Miss barged in and caused trouble, it would still be their underlings who would suffer. Since he wanted to find the wangfei, then let her bring him along. Today, it just so happened to be her duty.


    When the servant brought Xi Jiu Er to the front yard, she saw a noble well-dressed woman holding onto the servant''s hand as they walked forward step by step. She had a dignified smile on her face and her hair ornaments did not move according to her footsteps.


    "Servant greets Princess Hua-Yang." The maidservant immediately squatted down to enjoy herself.


    Xi Jiu Er also quickly squatted: "Greetings Princess Rongwang." Compared to her own Miss, she was evidently a maid who had never seen the world. To outsiders, it would seem that her master did not go out often to socialize.


    "Mm, get up." Princess Rongwang turned her gaze towards Xi Jiu Er, dressed up in a very refreshing and not flashy manner, looking very pleasing to the eyes, and not too ostentatious about the rewards from checking the accessories. It was different from those official Miss s who wished they could put on all the beautiful dresses and the precious ornaments on their bodies. It was as if this was the only way to show how beautiful they were and how valuable they were.


    "My daughter is the daughter of Xi Family''s Xi Hong Sheng ¡ª ¡ª Xi Jiu Er." Xi Jiu Er smiled as he bent his body slightly, his demeanor was humble and polite, and his actions were also like Liu Shui''s.


    Xi Family of the Xi Family? Princess Rongwang immediately knew who it was. It was the daughter of Xi Hong Sheng''s first wife. Princess Rongwang carefully thought back to it, and had to say that she still had a few memories of Xi Jiu Er, but they were not good impressions. She sized him up a few times, and her expression also became cold again.


    Xi Jiu Er saw the change in the situation, she smiled and took out a box from her hands. The workmanship of the box was not very exquisite, when she took it out, Princess Rongwang did not plan to accept it, she hesitated for a while before letting the servant take it. Forget about the Princess Rongwang, even the maidservants were not worthy of her notice. What lousy game was this, just one look at the box and you could tell that it wasn''t anything valuable.


    Xi Jiu Er only smiled and looked at Princess Rongwang, seemingly pointing at him, "Esteemed wangfei, you must keep all of these things well." She paused before bowing again, "This humble girl will take her leave now."


    Princess Rongwang looked at Xi Jiu Er''s leaving figure and frowned. Her expression was not good as she ordered the servant: "Open it and take a look."


    "It definitely isn''t anything good ¡­" "Eh ¡­" When the maidservant opened the door, he saw a white Poria Cocos which was as thick as a child''s arm. The whole Poria Cocos had been skinned and cleaned, and a crystal clear luster could be seen from the inside. This thing was definitely not ordinary, not to mention, it was fresh Poria Cocos.


    The servant girl''s originally disdainful gaze immediately went straight to the point as she trembled and said, "Esteemed wangfei, look ¡­ "This, this ¡­" He would be surprised and shocked at the same time. Such a good Poria Cocos could only be bought with thousands of silver taels. Even if he could, he might not get it this season.


    "What''s that ¡­" Princess Rongwang was puzzled when she saw the maid''s expression. This servant had followed him for so many years, what treasure had she not seen before? Looking at her promising looks, she stuck out her head and was quite surprised.


    She knew better than the servant girl. She took it out carefully to take a look and said happily, "Poria Cocos..." this is more or less the same as the Poria cocos king ¡­ " Poria Cocos could help a girl get pregnant, she had consumed a lot of body parts, but it did change a lot, the doctor said she could eat that kind of Poria cocos king, and it was fresh at that, the effect was extremely good. A fresh Poria cocos king is hard to find, even if there are people who might not sell it to you! Unless he was a drug dealer who dug up medicinal herbs for a living.


    "Hurry, hurry and boil this Poria Cocos along with the recipe that the doctor gave me ¡­" Princess Rongwang was excited. She immediately told her personal servant to do this for her personally, afraid that there would be some mishap. This was a huge issue related to her parenthood.


    "Yes." The maidservant happily went to settle this matter.


    The servant girl at the side laughed. "Princess Consort, I really didn''t expect that this Miss would have such a good treasure."


    "Yeah, I almost made a mistake too." Princess Rongwang was blaming herself a little. She clearly carried priceless jewelry, why would she think that the other party was poor? Even if they did not have Xi Family behind them, they did have them! Wei Guogong had no relatives, only this granddaughter. In the future, she reckoned that all of her assets would be given to this granddaughter of her.


    "Miss, look at that wangfei, she''s looking down on us." Liu Xiang said softly.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed casually, "She is an imperial concubine. We are just the children of officials, we are naturally looking down on us." She thought to herself that if the Princess didn''t abandon the Poria Cocos, it would be a waste of her time to look for it.


    Xi Jiu Er was not walking fast, but she was not slow either. When she arrived, everyone was still chatting and laughing, everyone was surprised to see that she had not left yet, but they were not related either. In the end, Xi Wan Feng still spoke up: "Little sister, come sit with me."


    How could a chair and two people look alike? Xi Jiu Er smiled and told Xi Wan Feng to chat about himself. He then told the servant to bring a chair over, and the maid immediately found a chair to place at the very end.


    Xi Jiu Er sat down and took the tea from the servant. Princess Rongwang was very attentive, the tea was very tasty. After drinking a few mouthfuls, she heard the servant say that the Princess Rongwang was here.


    All the Miss s immediately tidied themselves up and adjusted their expressions, and showed their most appropriate smiles! The beaded curtains crackled as two maidservants lifted the beaded curtains. A graceful and elegant woman slowly walked out. Her expression was extremely cheerful as she smiled and said, "Everyone, take a seat."


    Xi Jiu Er slowly sat down. From Princess Rongwang''s expression, she had already confirmed that she had seen Poria Cocos.


    The Princess Rongwang slowly landed, her gaze sweeping across everyone and saw Xi Jiu Er leisurely sitting at the very end, she was suspicious, and then looking at everyone''s seats, she realised that it was her own negligence, so she waved: "Jiu Er, come sit with me."


    "Jiu Er" caused Xi Jiu Er to almost shiver, and she raised her head to look at Princess Rongwang. This woman had changed her expression too quickly, and had even despised him a moment ago. It is also the role of Poria cocos.


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er answered meekly, walking to the front of the Princess Rongwang and sat down beside her. This action was quite shocking. Especially Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng, the two of them were both jealous and curious. Since when did Xi Jiu Er and Princess Rongwang have such a good relationship?


    "Hehehe, your mother and I can be considered as close as sisters. There''s no need for you to be so polite, child!" No matter how she looked at it, Xi Jiu Er seemed to like it somehow. She had already begun to daydream that she would immediately get pregnant after drinking this medicine.


    Xi Jiu Er, who was sitting beside Princess Rongwang, was not shy at all. She openly chatted with the Princess Rongwang, causing the Princess Rongwang to be extremely happy. I realized that I don''t know as much as you do. Ai, so many young people these days. "


    "Is the wangfei calling herself old? I don''t think that the wangfei is old, but the wangfei looks to be about the same age as us. Xi Wan Rong immediately took over the conversation.


    "That''s right, his skin is even whiter than ours."


    "Hehehe, we''ll still reward the wangfei when the time comes ¡­"


    Each and every one of the Shangguan Miss s tried their best to flatter and flatter the other. They didn''t want to be outdone by Xi Jiu Er at all, she had always been on equal footing with them in the past and they had never purposely gotten close to anyone before.


    "Hur Hur Hur Hur, listen to your sweet little mouths." Princess Rongwang laughed, it was really a happy occasion, laughing so hard that the flowers were shaking! Xi Jiu Er listened to their flattery and looked at Xi Wan Rong''s jealous and indignant appearance. She gave her a provoking look at a place that no one else could see.


    Xi Wan Rong''s eyes were wide opened, she was not seeing things, was Xi Jiu Er''s provocative eyes were looking at her? Blinking his eyes, he found that she was teasing him, as if saying: Aren''t you the prettiest girl in the world, why don''t you attract Princess Rongwang''s attention?


    Damn it, damn it, he was actually looked down upon. Xi Wan Rong''s face was burning hot, her pretty eyes were staring straight at Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Jiu Er pretended not to see the water in her teacup, her demeanor natural.


    In the eyes of others, Xi Wan Rong''s expression made it seem as if she was jealous of her sister. That face of hers seemed to be warped no matter how one looked at it, and with her makeup on, even though she looked exquisite and beautiful, she looked a little old, like a sixteen or seventeen year old.


    "Rong Er." Xi Wan Feng secretly pinched Xi Wan Rong, telling her to restrain herself and not to show it in her heart. Didn''t she see their eyes? Quickly restrain yourself, but a voice inside her was telling her to ignore her and ignore her. This was what she had asked for! In the end, Xi Wan Feng still did what an elder sister should do.

 C17

    It was time to admire the flowers. Princess Rongwang had all her carefully cultivated flowers placed in the garden, and had her servants place chairs, tea and snacks on them. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng were without a doubt the target of the group of women''s flattery.


    "Sigh, these are all Miss s who came out of Xi Mansion. How did this Ninth Miss receive Princess Rongwang''s favor? Furthermore, she stayed behind alone in the Ninth Miss, saying that she had something to tell her. "


    "Isn''t that so? Sigh ¡­" I''m so envious of you. "


    "I don''t think the number one beauty in the world is this much, but when the Ninth Miss opens her eyes in the future, she might even be more beautiful than her elder sister."


    "As you can see, the jade hairpin on the Ninth Miss''s head is an extremely valuable piece of jade. Even some people''s hair ornaments might not be more valuable than that hairpin."


    "That bracelet seems to be an extremely good stuff. This Ninth Miss normally doesn''t show her true colors."


    Everyone was talking about it, and Xi Wan Rong, who was not far from them, heard it clearly. It was obvious that they were talking towards her, and although she was angry in her heart, she could only laugh in response, "Yo, why do I hear people talking about grapes?"


    "Who do you say can''t eat grapes and say they''re sour? Don''t you know what you look like? What number one beauty? Which one of our Miss is weaker than you? Which one of you is lower than you? I wonder who sealed you with this title. " The person who was opposing Xi Wan Rong was the Great Miss, Yun Qing Ran. He was a very famous clan that was much higher than the Xi Family.


    Yun Qing Ran disdained such a title. What number one beauty? She sneered: "I actually admire the first talented girl of Miss a little, but you and I are both completely disdainful."


    "You, you''re jealous of me just because you''re ugly." Xi Wan Rong understood it like this, but Xi Wan Feng, who heard Yun Qing Ran praise herself in such a way, was still excited, talent was something that everyone could see.


    "Jealous of you? "Then what''s there to be jealous about?" Yun Qing Ran said disdainfully: "It is just a face, I do not look bad, my family background is better than yours, what about you? What else do you have other than that face? "


    "Hehehe ¡­" Yun Qing Ran felt that Xi Wan Rong really only had this much, that it was just a piece of trash.


    "Hey, what do you mean? "Stop right there, speak clearly." Xi Wan Rong saw that Yun Qing Ran, who had ignited him, had just cast him aside. She was obviously jealous that she was prettier than her, alright?


    No, she had to admit. Otherwise, everyone would point their fingers at her! Because he didn''t know how it would work today, Xi Wan Rong''s expression became sinister amidst the luxuriant-purple flowers, as he became angry.


    Yun Qing Ran pouted and continued to walk in front. This kind of floral feast was really boring, if mother had let her come, she would not have come.


    "Enough, do you think it''s not enough?" Xi Wan Feng felt that her little sister''s way of doing things was too shameful. It was true that Yun Qing Ran did the same, but as Xi Wan Rong''s big sister, she had to stop her.


    "Elder sister, you, haven''t you heard what she said? She said I''m not the number one beauty... I... "I ¡­" Xi Wan Rong was so angry that she was about to cry. Those who were on good terms with her immediately went up to comfort her, because there were almost no one in the circle who liked Yun Qing Ran''s personality.


    After crying, Xi Wan Rong brought the servant girl to immediately fix her makeup, only to see that Yun Qing Ran''s bag was already forgotten on the table. She remembered that Yun Qing Ran''s servant girl had once mentioned this. When she thought about how Yun Qing Ran was playing with her, she immediately thought of an idea. She placed the bracelet in her hand into her handbag.


    Returning to the garden in a good mood, Xi Wan Rong smiled sweetly, as if he was a different person. It was as if the previous disagreement with young people did not exist at all.


    Suddenly, Xi Wan Rong exclaimed: "Where is my bracelet? "He''s gone ¡­"


    "Bracelet?" The first to recover her senses was Xi Wan Feng, she immediately saw that Xi Wan Rong''s wrist was indeed missing a bracelet, and asked: "Did it fall somewhere?"


    "I... I don''t know either... Are you sisters okay? Can you help me find them? " Xi Wan Rong said in a sobbing tone: "This is given to me by mother, I cannot throw it away."


    Thus, everyone began to search, but to no avail. At this time, Xi Jiu Er and the Princess Rongwang came over, and when they saw that everyone was looking for something, they asked: "Hehe, what are you looking for?"


    Just a moment ago, she went over to the Poria cocos king and asked Xi Jiu Er to accompany her to ask how the Poria cocos king obtained it. Xi Jiu Er said that it was a chance encounter and it could be considered as a kind of opportunity.


    She didn''t know if it was because of the Poria cocos king, but she felt that her whole body felt much better, especially her lower abdomen which was abnormally warm. No matter how she pulled Xi Jiu Er, she just liked it. When the maidservant brought the Poria Cocos to the doctor, the doctor was also shocked. After verification, this was indeed the Poria cocos king, and it was not a fake.


    This child was truly willing, and truly liked him. He was much more sincere than the housekeeper Miss s. He was willing to give her such expensive medicine!


    "Princess, Miss Rong Wan''s bracelet is missing."


    "Esteemed wangfei, this commoner was still wearing it on her wrist just now, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye ¡­" Xi Wan Rong was so anxious that she was about to cry, the people around consoled her.


    Once Princess Rongwang saw this, she immediately called for the servants to attend to him, "Did any of you see Miss Wan-Ting''s bracelet?"


    The servants'' faces all changed, and they all said at the same time, "No." Princess Rongwang still believed in his servants, they were all chosen by him, and thus she had his servants help him find them.


    The Princess Rongwang was unhappy, because her meticulously designed floral feast was broken by Xi Wan Rong''s lost bracelet. She could only pull Xi Jiu Er over to talk, and all she talked about was the matters of Xi Jiu Er.


    "Your mother is a beautiful woman, and similarly an outstanding woman." "Many people liked her back then, even Prince Rong was married to your father. It was a pity that you lost your life because of your beauty, and your mother gave birth to you, and you died."


    mother... mother... First Lady, you all can''t escape. You caused the death of mother, I want you all to pay with your lives. Her gaze uncontrollably fell on Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng''s bodies.


    Yun Qing Ran came over and sneered: "A good flower doesn''t reward its flowers, but must be rewarded with grass."


    Xi Jiu Er burst out laughing. This Miss Yun Yun Qing Ran was really cute, with a straightforward personality. In her previous life, she had heard a lot about this Miss, but after hearing that she married a general, she had led a happy life.


    "Ninth Miss, what are you laughing about, is it funny?" Yun Qing Ran saw the smile on Xi Jiu Er''s face and asked.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, and said with a smile: "That''s right, I also think that this flower is much better looking than grass."


    "Exactly." Yun Qing Ran also laughed, she had a similar feeling to Xi Jiu Er.


    When Xi Wan Rong saw Yun Qing Ran coming over, the servant girl behind her had a handbag, inside the handbag was the thing she wanted! She had to think of a way to expose this thing ¡­ But what could she do? What could she do?


    Suddenly, an idea came to her mind as she walked up to Yun Qing Ran and asked: "Do you have any kernels s in your hand bag?"


    Usually, at these kinds of occasions, maids would bring along a handbag filled with their Miss''s makeup, jewellery, dresses, handkerchiefs and the like.


    Yun Qing Ran was startled, she did not think that Xi Wan Rong would actually talk to him, and pouted: "No."


    "You ¡­" Xi Wan Rong fumed, and said angrily: "You must have stolen my bracelet."


    The place turned silent for a moment, then Yun Qing Ran spoke word for word: "Xi Wan Rong, you can eat whatever you want to eat, but you can''t say whatever you want." If he told her that she stole from him in front of so many Miss, how could she continue to be in the upper class? What if she is in Yun Family?


    Xi Wan Rong was happy, she was very happy to see Yun Qing Ran like that, she proudly said: "Humph, I am definitely not spouting nonsense, maybe my bracelet is in the bag in your servant''s hands."


    "You!" Yun Qing Ran shouted in anger.


    "I what? If you want to prove your innocence, then open the bag and let us see." Xi Wan Rong said in an overbearing tone, he did not have any intention of letting go at all.


    Xi Wan Feng walked over: "Rong Er, stop messing around." She gave Xi Jiu Er a glance, and Xi Jiu Er seemed to be ''scared silly''. Sigh, it was best not to bring her to such a gathering in the future, it was completely useless.


    "Hmph, stop messing around. It was clearly her who stole my bracelet." Xi Wan Rong did not care about Xi Wan Feng''s face at all, and directly flung her off. This move was extremely embarrassing to Xi Wan Feng. She was the eldest sister, yet she was ignored by her sister in front of so many people. In an instant, his face turned slightly red, and he vaguely resented and detested this useless little sister.


    "Alright, open it then." Yun Qing Ran asked the servant to open the bag. Inside the bag, there was nothing. Xi Wan Rong was stunned. How was that possible? How is that possible? She clearly put it in this bag! Where did he run off to?


    "What? You''re disappointed that you didn''t see it?" Yun Qing Ran asked with a smile.


    Xi Wan Rong opened his mouth but no one knew what he said. In the end, he forced out a smile, "I, I''m confused." At this time, Xi Wan Rong reacted quickly, "That belongs to my mother. It was Outer Grandmother who gave it to me and mother who gave it to me."


    "Alright, alright, let''s continue looking." Princess Rongwang quickly acted as the mediator, she was so tired that she died! This damned Xi Wan Rong, he could only blame her for making her floral feast turn into a mess. The final comic scene was found in the pocket of one of the Miss. At that time, the face of the Miss changed. Everyone look at her and Yun Qing Ran''s identical pockets, if they don''t understand what the difference is between them and a fool?

 C18

    Xi Wan Rong''s so-called losing of the bracelet seemed like a farce to everyone, it was obvious that it was directed at Yun Qing Ran. They were all the direct descendants of the Miss, so they still had the ability to play around with him, how could they be as clumsy as Xi Wan Rong? It was simply a joke.


    Princess Rongwang''s face was so dark that blood could drip from it. The floral feast she woke up to this extent was actually destroyed by Xi Wan Rong, she really wanted to step forward and slap this foolish girl to death, but she could not, she was Princess Rongwang, so she could only say with a stiff face: "Since we have already found her, then the floral feast will continue."


    With this good show, a few people went to admire the flowers, and everyone gathered in groups of three or five to whisper to each other. Other than a few who were slightly better off with Xi Wan Rong, the rest had already separated Xi Wan Rong from everyone else.


    Yun Qing Ran sneered, and looked at Xi Wan Rong with disdain as she pursed her lips to the Princess Rongwang: "Wangfei, you still want to invite someone like this over? This is such a disappointment." Xi Jiu Er, who was at the side, did not say a word.


    Princess Rongwang was in agreement, why didn''t she realize that this Xi Wan Rong was an idiot who didn''t have a brain? If I knew what she said, I wouldn''t invite her here... Although Xi Wan Rong did not have a brain, he did have a face. Everyone knew her, so it would be unreasonable not to invite her.


    "Hehe, it''s all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." Princess Rongwang could only say that, furthermore, the person in front of her was not a well-behaved girl, and Yun Qing Ran did not like her at all. Seeing how many people around her were close friends with her, it could be seen how unpopular she was. Then, he saw Xi Jiu Er quietly sitting there. In her heart, she liked him, since Xi Jiu Er was intelligent and didn''t want to cause him any trouble.


    "Ai, what are you all surrounding me for? Go and play with them." As the owner of the floral feast, she naturally hoped that they would be able to see the fruits of her hard work.


    Xi Jiu Er and Yun Qing Ran looked at each other and laughed. In the eyes of both of them, there was a sense of helplessness, and as the two of them unknowingly walked together, Yun Qing Ran muttered, "What is so good about this kind of floral feast? I also haven''t seen any of these flowers." She pursed her lips with a look of disdain.


    Xi Jiu Er liked the rate at which the flowers bloomed, so she couldn''t help but approach closer to Yun Che. "Miss Yun, what flowers do you like?"


    Yun Qing Ran grinned at her: "With silver flowers, does it count as something?"


    Xi Jiu Er was stunned and then immediately laughed: "I will." This Miss Yun is really interesting. From a distance, Xi Wan Rong saw that Xi Jiu Er was talking to her enemy in detail. Her entire face turned green, Xi Jiu Er, are you really someone from the Xi Family? Damn it, she only knows how to go against me.


    "Elder sister, look, this is really going too far." Xi Wan Rong held onto Xi Wan Feng''s hand in anger and indignation as he said, "Elder sister, you have to think of a way for little sister to get older brother. If I can''t take this lying down, how can I face others in the future?"


    "You ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was also angry in her heart, as the saying goes, good things go together and good things go together. If Xi Wan Rong were to lose face, she would not be in a good position, "It''s better if you continue to cause trouble, if you do something out of line, father will definitely punish us. Just don''t come into contact with Miss Yun in the future. "


    Xi Wan Feng still wanted to build a good relationship with the Miss Yun since she was not an ordinary family. It was a pity that everything she had planned was wasted on her stupid little sister. She was angry, so she could only ask her little sister to be quiet and obedient.


    "You, you''re too much! You''re not helping me out yet you''re telling me to endure. Hmph, I don''t need you to care about me." Once Xi Wan Rong heard this, she became angry, and realised that there was impatience in Xi Wan Feng''s words. She was about to explode from anger, with a swing of her head, she stomped Xi Wan Feng on the ground and walked away. This made Xi Wan Feng feel extremely awkward, and she really started to hate this little sister of hers.


    Xi Wan Rong angrily left, Xi Wan Feng''s smile could not hold any longer, he bit his lips and smiled at the people who were looking at him out of curiosity. Looking at her, Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought that perhaps Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng''s relationship was not like how it seemed on the surface.


    He used the chance to block Xi Jiu Er''s way and asked angrily: "You clearly know that Yun Qing Ran has enmity with me, but you still dare to chat and joke around with her? Are you from Xi Family?"


    Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, as if she did not care about Xi Wan Rong at all. "You have enmity with her and I don''t have enmity with her. Besides, you are the one who instigated this incident. Didn''t you see that you have become the laughing stock of everyone? Now everyone agrees that you have no brain but a long face. " As she spoke, disdain appeared on her face, Xi Wan Rong said angrily: "Xi Jiu Er, you want to oppose me, don''t you!"


    "I''m going against you, okay?" Xi Jiu Er innocently shrugged and said something that made Xi Wan Rong explode with anger: "You are indeed inferior to Miss Yun, and even inferior to her looks."


    "You!" Xi Wan Rong grabbed onto Xi Jiu Er''s arm, causing Xi Jiu Er to fiercely glare at him: "Scram, don''t touch me."


    Xi Wan Rong was terrified, she had never seen such a ferocious Xi Jiu Er before. She stared blankly at Xi Jiu Er leaving with a disgusted expression for a long time without being able to recover from her shock. At that moment, he felt as if she was a dirty thing in front of Xi Jiu Er.


    "Miss, Miss?" The servant came over to see Xi Wan Rong standing there in a daze, she looked as though she was shocked by something, only when the servant waved her hand in front of her did she wake up abruptly. She looked at the crowd in the distance with her mouth wide open, Xi Jiu Er''s smile was calm and proper, where could she find her shadow from? It was as though she was dreaming.


    "Miss, what''s wrong?"


    "Nothing." Xi Wan Rong''s pupils constricted. Her sister, Xi Wan Feng, was actually chatting with Yun Qing Ran with a smile plastered on her face, and it was very obvious that Yun Qing Ran did not care about Xi Wan Feng at all.


    Why, why did her family and relatives abandon her and instead fawn over her enemies? Xi Wan Rong started to resent Xi Wan Feng. He was her own little sister, it was fine that she didn''t help him vent his anger, but she was also opposing him like Xi Jiu Er.


    With her beautiful eyes, Xi Wan Rong thought of a good idea. Hmph, this time she wanted him to give her justice, she would definitely do it so that no one would be able to find any clues. After planning, she changed her mind, organized her emotions, gritted her teeth and walked towards Yun Qing Ran. No matter how much she hated Yun Qing Ran, she would still show off with a smile on her face for her own plan.


    "Miss Yun ¡­" Xi Wan Rong took a deep breath and walked forward before calling Yun Qing Ran, who was about to leave, and forced out a smile: "Earlier, I misunderstood Miss Yun, and it was my fault. I am here apologizing to Miss Yun, and hope that Miss Yun will forgive me regardless of the past."


    Xi Wan Rong apologizing in front of so many people was enough to show her sincerity. Everyone''s opinion of her slightly changed as well. On the other hand, Yun Qing Ran''s expression was still very cold, and she only gave a faint ''En'' sound as she walked forward. Everyone knew that Yun Qing Ran did not belong to the group, and gradually spread the rumors that she had a cold and arrogant personality.


    Yun Qing Ran made a ''hmm'' sound and there was no follow-up. Xi Wan Rong immediately chased after him and asked, "Miss Yun, are you still blaming me? "Blame me for talking to you like this before, it was my fault ¡­"


    Yun Qing Ran''s footsteps were very fast. As soon as Xi Wan Rong caught up, with just a few words, the two of them had already left the crowd. Everyone was still together, talking about yours, talking about mine. Everyone looked kind and friendly on the surface, but their hearts only knew that if you didn''t agree with me, I wouldn''t accept it. I looked down on you, you looked down on me.


    There must be a demon in this abnormal situation. Xi Wan Feng and Xi Jiu Er both thought that there must be a demon in the process of Xi Wan Rong apologizing. As expected ¡ª with a ''putong'' sound followed by a ''putong'' sound, the maidservant screamed.


    "Ah, Miss, are you alright ¡­"


    "Miss?"


    "Men, help! My Miss fell into the water ¡­"


    "Someone come quickly, someone come quickly ¡­"


    This time, there was going to be a liveliness to watch! Xi Jiu Er and Yun Qing Ran were flopping in the water, and the only difference was that Yun Qing Ran was flopping around. Xi Wan Rong was still crying out loud in fear: "Help, help me!"


    "Xi Wan Rong, why are you so detestable? Why are you pushing me into the water like that? Yun Qing Ran scolded Xi Wan Rong angrily from the start, if the servant did not stop her, she would have gone over to pull Xi Wan Rong out of the water and beat him up.


    Xi Wan Rong, who had been scooped out of the water, trembled while wrapping up the list. He let out a very aggrieved cry, and his snow-white face hid behind the list, only revealing a wronged look in his eyes. "It was obviously Miss Yun who pushed me down here, I know I was annoying, and I also know Miss Yun hates me, but ¡­" He began to burp as he cried.


    "Xi Wan Rong, other than acting, what else do you know? I only know how to act pitiful while crying. I''m not a man so I wouldn''t pity you, so stop with your pitiful look. " Yun Qing Ran said in disgust, then ordered Tian Xiang and the others to send him back to his room.


    Xi Wan Rong was still crying non-stop. The surrounding Miss s had all come out to watch him, and seeing how the number one beauty in the world was crying like a sorrowful rain, they all couldn''t help but look at her with contempt. In the end, they were all Miss s of the Xi Family. Xi Wan Feng and Xi Jiu Er had only walked a few steps when he covered his face and walked towards them.

 C19

    It was impossible to hide the fact that Xi Wan Rong had humiliated himself in the Rong King Manor. Since Xi Wan Rong had humiliated himself this time, the old Madame immediately let Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng and Xi Jiu Er kneel in the ancestral hall to reflect on their mistake.


    Xi Wan Rong didn''t feel guilty at all that everyone was implicated because of her. Instead, he felt that it was because Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wan Feng didn''t help him that caused this kind of situation, so they suffered along with him because they deserved it!


    Xi Wan Feng''s expression was as calm as water, while Xi Jiu Er''s mind was on his knees on the praying mat, his consciousness had already entered the space. The old Madame said to let them understand the principle of being both prosperous and losing together, Xi Wan Rong would probably never understand it in his life, so why waste time.


    He could not find Qiu Qiu in the space. Where did Qiu Qiu go? Xi Jiu Er called out in the air for a long time, but she was still unable to find Qiu Qiu ¡­ Suddenly, a strange air current rushed her out of the space. In that instant, all the strength in her body seemed to have been sucked out of his.


    "Dong", Xi Jiu Er directly fell to the ground and did not move. She was so shocked that Xi Wan Rong screamed, "Hey, what are you doing? Get up!"


    However, Xi Jiu Er did not move, she could hear and see, but she could not speak. No, it was because she was too weak to speak, unable to move! After that inhalation, she didn''t even have the strength to open her mouth.


    "Hey, are you thinking of a way to not punish yourself by kneeling? No, you have to kneel, get up ¡­" Xi Wan Rong thought that this was Xi Jiu Er''s way of thinking, so that she wouldn''t be punished. No, she had to kneel. No matter what, she had to kneel!


    "Get up! "You''re not allowed to be lazy ¡­" Xi Wan Rong grabbed Xi Jiu Er and bellowed. But Xi Jiu Er looked like she had no bones, her expression was also a little strange. She turned her head and asked, "Elder sister, is she really in bad shape?"


    "I''m afraid so, go find First Lady quickly."


    Roughly an hour later, Xi Wan Rong notified the First Lady and Old Madame. Why? She no longer needed to kneel down. Hungry and thirsty was naturally the first thing she had to do after filling her stomach. After she had eaten her fill and rested for a while, she went to find the First Lady, who would then inform the old Madame.


    And on the other side, other than Xi Jiu Er, there was one other person who was in a bad mood as well ¡­


    "Princess, you''ve drank the fourth bowl today. Excessive drinking isn''t good for your health, right?" The Princess Rongwang maidservant watched worriedly as the Princess Rongwang drank four bowls of Poria cocos king''s medicine in a single day. How could her body continue enduring like this?


    "What do you know? I don''t have time to waste!" Princess Rongwang glanced at her lips, then looked at the empty bowl at the bottom of her mouth, wishing that she could immediately bring a child out. A few more noises came from outside, and their moods became unexplainable, "Where is the prince today?"


    Winter Bamboo Institution? It was the Dong Zhu Courtyard again. It was unknown what ability that slut had used to get the prince to pamper her! Ai, I''m about to become old. If I don''t get pregnant soon, I won''t have any hope in this life ¡­


    During the night, Princess Rongwang suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach, and immediately called for her lips. Seeing that she was in so much pain, she rolled on the bed and screamed out: "Quickly go and find a doctor, go and find Your Highness!"


    "It hurts, it hurts ¡­" Princess Rongwang felt as if her whole body was about to explode from the pain. It was as if a knife was ruthlessly gouging her lower abdomen, the pain was like mincing her own flesh, suffocating her every time.


    "Esteemed wangfei, don''t scare Servant, don''t scare him ¡­" He smacked his lips as he was about to cry from Princess Rongwang''s display of power. He tried to get close but was unable to, so he could only stand by the side and do his best to calm himself down, "Esteemed wangfei ¡­ Why are you still not here, and why aren''t you here yet? "


    "Sister Lip Dot, the doctor is here."


    "Invite him in quickly!"


    When he saw the situation with Princess Hua-Yang, he immediately ordered the maidservants to hold her down. The maidservants looked at each other, not daring to move, afraid that Princess Hua-Yang would get hurt. Princess Hua-Yang was like a lunatic, if she was hurt, the blame would fall on their hands and knees.


    "What are you waiting for? Do as I said." Ye Zichen pursed her lips and roared towards the gawking servants by the side. Only then did they panic and press down on Princess Rongwang''s four limbs. Princess Rongwang was in so much pain that her struggling face had already twisted into a ball.


    "Wangfei, what happened to the wangfei?" Duke Rong rushed over in a fluster, his clothes were messy and he looked to be in a hurry. He rushed to the side of the bed and saw that the Princess Rongwang had fainted, so he asked the doctor, "What happened to the imperial concubine?"


    "Unclean things?" Prince Rong suddenly turned around and shouted to the servants standing at the side, "How did you serve her? You made her eat such dirty things. Lift your lips and serve her closely, speak!"


    "The food of the princess has always been cooked by the little chef, so there''s nothing wrong with it. Other than the princess eating the Poria cocos king sent by the Xi Family today, something like this happened ¡­" Ye Zichen quickly reported everything he knew to Prince Rong, not daring to hide anything from him.


    The doctor scoffed, "Poria cocos king? Hehe, there''s going to be a Poria cocos king at this time of the year? How is that possible, the princess must have been deceived! " This old doctor knew the condition of Princess Rongwang''s body and also knew that only by eating the Poria cocos king would he have the chance of getting pregnant.


    "Xi Family?" A blurry image of a woman appeared in Prince Rong''s mind. He said lightly, "Lip tap. Inform Xi Family that you have been poisoned due to the wangfei ¡­"


    Was he going to indirectly take care of the Xi Family? Now that the life of the wangfei was at stake, even if she believed that Xi Jiu Er was giving out the real Poria cocos king, she did not dare to be careless. If anything happened to the wangfei, she would be the first one to have bad luck as a personal servant.


    While everyone was worried for Xi Jiu Er, Duke Rong Palace had already sent people over to the Princess Rongwang to say that Xi Jiu Er''s Poria cocos king s were poisoned, so it was unknown whether the wangfei was still alive or not! This time, Xi Mansion was in an uproar again, as he cried out involuntarily: "Poria cocos king? How could there be a Poria cocos king? Jiu Er must have been deceived by someone. "


    Even though he said that he was thinking of another method, haha, good for poisoning? He lowered his voice and said, "mother, what should we do now? The opponent was Princess Rongwang ¡­ If something bad happens to the Princess Rongwang, how can we explain it? " Die, die, only the Princess Rongwang will die! Xi Jiu Er will definitely die!


    Old Madame secretly hated Xi Jiu Er for being a troublemaker as she stared at Xi Jiu Er and said, "What are you afraid of? Xi Jiu Er is his only granddaughter. If something happens, he wouldn''t just stand by and do nothing, right? "


    "mother is talking about... Then from mother''s point of view, how should we account this matter to the Duke Rong Palace? " First Lady asked in a low voice.


    "Send Xi Jiu Er and her servant up to the manor. If anything happens to Princess Rongwang, she will never be able to step foot into the Xi Mansion for the rest of her life." The old Madame said one word at a time.


    First Lady''s face stiffened. This was clearly protecting Xi Jiu Er, and also throwing all responsibility onto the Wei Guogong''s Palace. Therefore, they arranged for Xi Jiu Er and the servant Liu Xiang to get on the carriage and the old granny to take them to the Manor. Liu Xiang''s eyes were swollen from crying. Miss was still sick, why not look for a doctor first?


    "Miss... "They are really going too far ¡­" He wanted to hug Xi Jiu Er and cry!


    Don''t cry Liu Xiang, how they treat us, we will repay back several fold ¡­ So don''t cry! Her trembling lips could not speak a word.


    Princess Rongwang was better off, at least she seemed to have a good mental state ¡­ The doctor said there was nothing wrong with the prescription and left. Duke Rong was relieved, but he did not release the news. He already knew what the Xi Family was doing, let that child suffer a lot!


    "Gulp ¡­" Princess Rongwang felt a wave of discomfort in her abdomen and immediately ordered a few lips to help him enter the toilet!


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Princess Rongwang only felt a wave of swelling pain in her lower abdomen as something fell off the toilet while squatting. The pain caused her to scream uncontrollably, followed by a pungent stench that almost caused the two of them to vomit.


    After that, she bit her lips to hold back her nausea and said, "Esteemed wangfei, it''s a blood clot ¡­" Ugh, she couldn''t help wanting to vomit at the mention of that blood clot. It was too disgusting.


    Blood clot? Princess Rongwang felt that it was not a good thing, it was a disgusting thing coming out from her stomach, could it be that it had something to do with her never getting pregnant? She was afraid that they really wouldn''t be able to separate themselves from each other ¡­


    The Princess Rongwang had a sullen face. It was said that the Poria cocos king had the ability to blood circulation and dissolve blood stasis, this must be its effect. Princess Rongwang spent the night on the toilet as large and small clots of blood continuously flowed out from her abdomen. Finally, the Princess Rongwang was exhausted!


    Only after nurturing it for half a month did it finally recover! He felt relaxed, his body relaxed, and he became more spirited ¡­ It was as if he had become a completely different person. Princess Rongwang secretly went outside with a bit of a lips. She searched for a lot of people, but none of them were clear about her situation.


    Until she met a youth who was absolutely beautiful and cold. His entire body was white, but not lead. After he had cut off Princess Rongwang''s pulse, he carefully asked about what had happened. He said indifferently: "Has Madame ever had a slip tire?"


    "I haven''t cleaned up all the items that were left behind, that''s why I ate the medicinal ingredients that had a forceful effect like Poria cocos king. Otherwise ¡ª you''ll never be able to conceive. " It seemed like the man had opened a prescription for Princess Rongwang.


    Princess Rongwang''s expression changed as she bit her lips to the point that she covered her mouth in fear. Oh god, who is it, what a sinister plan! I don''t know who did it, but one thing is certain.


    This time, if it wasn''t for him ¡­ Just thinking about it, Princess Rongwang felt chills down his spine!

 C20

    Everyone said that First Lady treated Ninth Miss like her own daughter, and from the looks of it, she knew that First Lady was not thinking in this way, it seems that First Lady was only acting on the surface. If the Great Miss really goes there this time, she would risk her life to find the Prince Fu so that the Prince Fu can uphold justice. This First Lady is truly going too far.


    Xi Jiu Er''s consciousness was very clear, she was only weak and could not move at all. She opened her eyes and gave Liu Xiang a comforting look before sinking down once again. As the carriage jolted, the three people in the carriage were already drowsy. About an hour later, they finally arrived at the manor. Liu Xiang and the old granny supported her off the carriage. The old granny''s strength was extremely great, it was unknown if it was intentional or unintentional, but the old granny pinched''s flesh!


    Xi Jiu Er weakly opened her eyes and stared at the old lady, the latter embarrassedly lowered her strength. It seems like she did it on purpose! Xi Jiu Er sneered, First Lady was impatient, seeing that his grandfather had recovered, he started to make his move.


    "Miss, Miss has woken up!" Just as Liu Xiang rejoiced over it, she saw that Xi Jiu Er had almost fainted yet again. Before she could even finish speaking the woman had already started shouting noisily, "Miss, aiya, it''s already here, don''t faint yet." After going through a bumpy journey, Xi Jiu Er''s face was filled with exhaustion, her face was as white as paper without a hint of blood, she looked like a dead person. The old lady was so scared that she was panicking, she was a slave, if her master died, she would definitely be implicated.


    Xi Jiu Er forced her eyes open, indicating that she was still alive. Liu Xiang almost broke into tears of joy, the old granny also heaved a sigh of relief. The two of them supported Xi Jiu Er up to the door, the old granny slapped the door with her large palms, shouting, "Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Open the door! Quickly open the door! "


    The old woman knocked on the door for a long time. Her hands were numb from the pain, yet no one came to open the door. She muttered in her heart and was extremely dissatisfied.


    Liu Xiang supported Xi Jiu Er who was resting on the stairs. Liu Xiang was so anxious that tears were flowing down her face as she continued to speak: "Miss, how did you suddenly become like this? "How can a perfectly fine one be so ¡­" As she spoke, she started to sob. The old woman was still upset and could not help but shout out, "Can you stop crying? Isn''t this person still alive? "


    The usually gentle Liu Xiang immediately raised his head and glared fiercely at the old granny, as if she would be the first one to go all out against her if anything happened to Xi Jiu Er. The old granny trembled in fear, and awkwardly laughed: "It''s my fault, it''s my fault, my fault!


    With a creak, they finally opened it, and a drowsy woman looked at everyone, her gaze resting on Xi Jiu Er a few more times, before finally looking towards the old granny and asking indifferently: "Who are you looking for?"


    The Old granny smiled and asked: "Are you ex-sister-in-law? I have a letter from the First Lady! " With that, she handed over the First Lady''s letter to the woman. The woman still had a bit of charm to her, and with every gesture she made, she hid a hint of nobility. She opened the letter and roared lightly: "Fine, you guys carry the person inside the house for me."


    "Alright." The old granny was the most nimble, without saying a word, she grabbed Xi Jiu Er and left, she was planning to rush back to report everything. Liu Xiang immediately followed and supported herself on the other side. What if this old lady was injured?


    The courtyard was not very clean, and according to the ex-sister-in-law''s orders, the company brought Xi Jiu Er to a clean and elegant room. After Xi Jiu Er was done, the old granny rubbed her hands and said, "This is a Miss from the family. I have nothing else to do here, so I''ll be going. " There were a lot of Miss s, which old granny was purposely ambiguous under First Lady''s instructions.


    "ex-sister-in-law, I''ll leave this to you." As she said that, she sent a red packet to the ex-sister-in-law while was taking care of him: "This is the First Lady''s order."


    Without leaving a trace, ex-sister-in-law kept the red packet back into her sleeve, and with a faint smile on her face, he said, "I got it, you can go back now." The old woman coveted it, but she didn''t dare to move it. She was afraid that if she found out, she would be guilty. Then, she quickly left without looking back. ex-sister-in-law turned to look at the young girl lying on the bed.


    The young girl on the bed had a deathly pale face, but it couldn''t cover up the creamy skin on her body. Judging by her age, she should be around 13 or 14 years old, so she should be able to guess who this young girl in front of her was. He couldn''t help but feel a little pity in his heart. It was quite pitiful for the original direct descendant of the Miss to become like this. She touched the red packet given by First Lady, she was not too foolish, she did not want Xi Jiu Er to die, at that time she would definitely be in trouble.


    Forget about Xi Family, even if Wei Guogong himself could not pass that test, she was still a slave. It would be easy for her masters to make her take the blame.


    "You wait, I''ll go find a doctor." The ex-sister-in-law left in a hurry after saying that. Since she had made up her mind, where would she hope for Xi Jiu Er''s life? Liu Xiang looked at her gratefully: "Miss, ex-sister-in-law has gone to find a doctor. Miss, you have to hold on a little." Looking at her master who was on the verge of death, Liu Xiang couldn''t wait to replace all of her pain.


    Xi Jiu Er''s consciousness had already gradually faded away, as though she was deep in a pitch-black fog, and no matter how she shouted, she couldn''t reply! Gradually, a beam of light appeared in front of her. She followed the ray of light through the dense fog and heard Qiu Qiu''s voice, "Master, master!"


    "Qiu Qiu!" Xi Jiu Er was ecstatic, the surrounding fog instantly disappeared, and Qiu Qiu became much taller and stronger than before, but he was still as cute and adorable as before. Qiu Qiu jumped into her embrace and she caught it before retreating a few steps back. He looked at Qiu Qiu with pleasant surprise: "Qiu Qiu, where did you go? I can''t get into the space either... Is my sudden illness related to any of this? "


    The moment Qiu Qiu threw himself into his embrace, she immediately felt as if he was alive, full of energy, and a comfortable feeling followed. She suspected that his sudden weakness had something to do with all of this! Sure enough, Qiu Qiu nodded his head: "Master is so intelligent, the reason Master is unconscious is because Qiu Qiu is in a deep sleep, as long as Qiu Qiu is in a deep sleep, Qiu Qiu will grow bigger, and the space will increase too."


    "So that''s how it is. You made me worry about you." Xi Jiu Er heaved a sigh of relief.


    Qiu Qiu guiltily blamed himself: "Master, it''s all Qiu Qiu''s fault. If only Qiu Qiu had told Master earlier, it would have been fine. Qiu Qiu doesn''t know either ¡­ "


    "If you don''t know, then I can''t blame you for this. After this matter, I''ve already made my preparations." Xi Jiu Er quietly looked at Qiu Qiu''s head. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not scold him, and instead thought well of him, Qiu Qiu''s heart was moved. Then, as if he was offering a treasure, he grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s hand and said: "Master, let''s quickly go check out a new space."


    The fog in front of her opened up, revealing a familiar space in front of her. The space was indeed much larger, and there was also quite a bit of spring water! She was also overjoyed. She planned to grow those rare and precious medicinal herbs in her Space. She didn''t know if the fish could be fed in the spring water! I might as well give it a try.


    ex-sister-in-law brought a doctor over, and the doctor held onto the faintly discernible pulse and said indifferently: "This Miss doesn''t have enough Qi, and is abnormally weak, you should prepare for the future." With such a pulse, how could he still have a chance to live? The doctor looked at the girl on the bed with some regret, but then he thought better of it. As a doctor, he was already used to life and death.


    Prince Fu! The doctor had already eaten it, there was only one Prince Fu in the entire Zhou Dynasty ¡ª ¡ª Wei Guogong, and his only granddaughter was Ninth Miss. Could it be her? Tsk tsk, to be able to look so neither human nor ghost, it must have been caused by the dirty matter of the mansion. Doctors often treat people, and the more you see, the more you know.


    ex-sister-in-law''s face did not look good, "Doctor, is there no other way?"


    "Nope." The doctor shook his head. Although he wasn''t a famous doctor, it was still enough to determine life or death. He unhappily said, "If there''s nothing else, I''ll be taking my leave."


    "I''ll see the doctor out." The ex-sister-in-law sent the doctor off worriedly, planning on how to shirk this responsibility. He couldn''t just send this person back right?


    In the space, Qiu Qiu cried out "bad" and he was secretly vexed: "Qiu Qiu forgot that master''s body is currently very weak, and he can''t stay in space for too long ¡­ Master, quickly go back, or something big will happen if you''re late. " After saying that, he pushed Xi Jiu Er out, what entered Xi Jiu Er''s eyes was the tent above her head, Liu Xiang''s voice was filled with extreme sorrow, causing her to clench her heart.


    "Silly girl, aren''t I still alive? What are you crying for! " Xi Jiu Er reached out and gently caressed the top of Liu Xiang''s hair, his heart feeling soft. Liu Xiang, Liu Xiang... How can I die? Even if there is a breath of air in my heart, she will definitely not let go of anyone who has hurt her, anyone who has hurt her in the mother.

 C21

    Liu Xiang was crying her heart out, but when she heard Xi Jiu Er''s disbelieving voice, she raised her head and said in surprise: "Miss, you, you''re awake?"


    "Yeah." Xi Jiu Er sat up, the blood and Qi on his face was very abundant, how could she be a dying person like the doctor said? When the sunlight shone onto her jade-like face, Liu Xiang felt that the Miss in front of him had become even more beautiful than before! For a moment, he could not help but stare blankly, and said pitifully: "Miss ¡­ You didn''t know that the doctor just said you... Speak of you... Liu Xiang had thought that Miss was going to abandon him ¡­ "Sob, sob, sob ¡­"


    "Silly girl, you must remember that I will never abandon you." Xi Jiu Er said in a solemn voice, "You must remember this."


    There was no reason for her to not believe it. She firmly nodded her head, "Yes, Liu Xiang will remember this, no matter what happens, Miss will not abandon Liu Xiang."


    "That''s right." Xi Jiu Er smiled, and started to size up the house in front of her. Although the arrangement was simple, but it was very clean, and in the end, she shifted her gaze towards the shocked ex-sister-in-law at the door, and smiled: "You are ex-sister-in-law?" She seemed to be in a coma, but her mind was very clear, and she could clearly hear everyone''s voices.


    "Miss, are you alright?" ex-sister-in-law stepped forward happily and bowed: "My late husband''s surname is Qian, he is known as ex-sister-in-law."


    "Hehe, ex-sister-in-law doesn''t need to be so courteous. These are all empty courtesies, I will need your care in the future and will have to trouble ex-sister-in-law further." Xi Jiu Er removed the bracelet from her wrist and handed it over to ex-sister-in-law: "ex-sister-in-law, I liked you the first time. I don''t have anything for you, so I''ll give you the bracelet on me."


    ex-sister-in-law shook her head. "Taking care of Miss is my duty, I don''t dare to take his bracelet. Please take it back, Miss."


    "ex-sister-in-law, just guard it. There is nothing to be afraid of." Xi Jiu Er gave the bracelet to ex-sister-in-law, but ex-sister-in-law was unable to take it off and could barely put it away.


    When this ex-sister-in-law saw the high grade bracelet, her eyebrows didn''t even twitch. Either she didn''t know what was good, or she had seen many of these things already! Her words and actions were dignified and dignified, she did not try to please others, but she was deliberately making things difficult for them. Her smiling face gave people a feeling that she was a thousand miles away ¡­ This ex-sister-in-law probably had some background.


    "Liu Xiang, let''s go. Let''s take a look at our new residence."


    The yard was not big, but it was large enough that it could fit in at any size. It was slightly bigger than an ordinary yard. Elder Xi''s Madame''s courtyard was much bigger than this one ¡­ Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Xiang who was beside her with a gloomy face, she knew what she was worried about, how could the conditions here compare to that of Xi Family? [I have to reflect on this for a month, for a year and a half?]


    "Don''t worry. We won''t be staying for long. Have you forgotten that I still have a grandfather?" Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. Even if she didn''t have her grandfather, she could still think of a way to leave this place. Since First Lady brought her here, it probably wasn''t that simple ¡­ She reckoned that she still had other tricks up her sleeves.


    In a short while, ex-sister-in-law had prepared a few small dishes. Although she did not feel hungry after drinking the spring water, but looking at the porridge, which had a rich fragrance, the smell spread throughout the room made Xi Jiu Er''s appetite rise.


    "Miss, these are the only things in this remote place." ex-sister-in-law said: "Tell me what Miss wants to eat. If I can buy it, I will definitely make it for you."


    This ex-sister-in-law is truly a wonderful person, she talks a lot, whoever can buy it will buy it for her. This was indirectly telling her that other than these, there was nothing else in this countryside. If you wanted to eat delicacies, there was nothing else. Liu Xiang was a stubborn girl, sometimes her head would not turn but instead, think things through. She needed a quiver at her side, and this ex-sister-in-law probably had not married again, so she did not know if she would be willing to follow him.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, then smiled: "ex-sister-in-law, don''t call me Miss, just call me Jiu Er. If Jiu Er doesn''t care about food, Jiu Er will eat whatever ex-sister-in-law does." While speaking, she started to eat heartily as if the porridge in front of him was even more delicious than the delicacies of the sea and mountains.


    ex-sister-in-law revealed a smile, "It''s good that Miss doesn''t mind."


    After eating, the sky gradually darkened and the ex-sister-in-law began to prepare a bed. Xi Jiu Er realized that she had done it very carefully, and it was obvious that she was a person whose life was very particular. She didn''t know why, but she was probably born into a big family. This kind of temperament that came from her bones wasn''t something that could be developed the day after tomorrow.


    "Thank you, ex-sister-in-law." Xi Jiu Er was making friends with the ex-sister-in-law sincerely, and didn''t treat her as a servant at all. With the intelligence of the ex-sister-in-law, he should be able to understand this point.


    "This is what I should do." The smile on the ex-sister-in-law''s face became more sincere, and she left after bowing. It was truly beautiful to look at her back.


    At night, Xi Jiu Er slept soundly in space, and on the second day, he was full of energy: "Liu Xiang, how about we go out for a stroll when we have time?"


    Liu Xiang''s hand paused for a moment, then raised her head and asked with doubt: "Miss, are we not going to look for Prince Fu? That way we can get out of here sooner. " What if she worried about staying here for a long time? Although it was a reflection, but when it came to reflecting, who knew how long it would take. Seeing that her master wasn''t worried at all, she was truly worried.


    "Don''t worry, I''ll make them obediently invite me back." Xi Jiu Er laughed with confidence. Just then, her gaze was attracted by ex-sister-in-law, who was carefully drying the seeds, and couldn''t help but go over to ask curiously, "ex-sister-in-law, what seeds are these? Is it precious? "


    ex-sister-in-law laughed: "Miss, this time, the seeds of Chinese vanilla herb are very rare, and very difficult to plant. If they are planted, a single one of them can be bought for a thousand silvers. It''s a pity ¡ª I''ve never been able to grow it. " Her voice revealed a faint sense of loss, Xi Jiu Er''s gaze moved to the small box at the side. The seeds inside the box were dry and shriveled, and she was not as full as the purpose in ex-sister-in-law''s hands.


    "Is this also the seed of a Chinese vanilla herb?" Xi Jiu Er pointed.


    ex-sister-in-law nodded her head: "Yes, but those seeds have already been abandoned and cannot be planted."


    Xi Jiu Er thought about how her personal space had spring water and how she heard Qiu Qiu said that it could nourish everything. She decided to give this seed a try to see how it would turn out. If the effect was good, then she would definitely be lucky! Xi Jiu Er calculated in her heart, and revealed a smile as she asked: "ex-sister-in-law, since this seed is useless, can you give it to me?"


    "..." "Sure!" Although ex-sister-in-law was curious about what Xi Jiu Er was going to do with this, she did not ask.


    "ex-sister-in-law, Liu Xiang and I are planning to go out for a walk in a few days, is that okay?" Xi Jiu Er laughed and asked, as though she did not know what she was about to face once she reached the villa, as though she did not care at all. However, based on her many years of experience viewing people, she could tell that the girl in front of him was not someone who was at ease with the current situation.


    Originally, he did not plan to accompany Xi Jiu Er out. He was the only one taking care of the villa, what if something happened to her after he went out? Why don''t I just take her around for a while to get my bearings? I don''t need to follow her from now on. Then he said: "If Miss wishes to go, of course you can. At that time, this humble servant will bring Miss on a tour around the little town."


    "Thank you, ex-sister-in-law."


    In the space, Xi Jiu Er dipped the Chinese vanilla herb in a bit of spring water, and stared fixedly at the seed in her hand, hoping for a miracle to happen. Not long after, a change appeared as the seed was contaminated by the spring water, and under the nourishment of the spring water, the withered seed gradually became full, as if it had drank a lot of water.


    Qiu Qiu bounced over, gathered around his head, with a serious look on his face.


    Xi Jiu Er buried the seed in the ground, patting the soil in her hand and asked: "Qiu Qiu, when do you think the seed will sprout?"


    Qiu Qiu shook his head: "I''m not sure, but I think it will be very soon."


    Is that so? Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but feel sleepy. Unknowingly, she actually had a dream, and the dream was of a beautiful young man, the two of them being together ¡­ When she woke up, her cheeks were burning. She actually had a dream, a dream! Xi Jiu Er was completely stunned. Qiu Qiu ran over happily and said, "Master, master, the seed has sprouted. It has sprouted ¡­"


    "So fast!" Xi Jiu Er was shocked, she immediately ran over to take a look, and as expected, the seed had sprouted. The tender green leaves announced its arrival. Xi Jiu Er was both surprised and happy. With such a strong ability, how long would it take for him to grow up? This is worth thousands of gold. With these, she would have silver taels ¡­ These were all pure silver.


    "Qiu Qiu, when you grow up, just tell me." Thinking that it was about time for him to return, he left a message for her.


    Qiu Qiu nodded his head: "Rest assured Master, Qiu Qiu will immediately inform you when I grow up." Qiu Qiu promised as if he was a small adult, making Xi Jiu Er laugh.

 C22

    In the middle of the night, Xi Jiu Er''s voice came out from her slumber. "Master, master, you''ve grown up, you''ve grown up."


    Xi Jiu Er still could not react to what had grown in him for a while, and only after staring blankly for a while did she come to her senses. She happily entered the space to take a look, drink, sure enough, every Chinese vanilla herb had grown into one, a total of twenty of them. Xi Jiu Er thought she saw a bunch of silver flying towards him, she decided to find those rare and expensive things to grow them, they must be very valuable.


    "Qiu Qiu, we''re rich, we''re rich!" Xi Jiu Er could not help but hug Qiu Qiu. With the silver, she could do even more things.


    Qiu Qiu did not have any desire in this regard, but seeing that his master was so happy, he revealed a smile, and let out a clear and melodious laugh.


    The weather was good today, the sky was blue, the gentle wind blew over and kissed Xi Jiu Er''s cheeks, Xi Jiu Er''s mood was very good, she brought Liu Xiang and ex-sister-in-law out. This was a small town, with a simple and honest personality, Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought that it would be great if she could continue living here, far away from the meticulous plans she had made. In the blink of an eye, Xi Jiu Er had abandoned that thought. She had to avenge her mother''s death, and he had to avenge her past life.


    If everything was settled, she could find a place that was clear and beautiful, a place where she could settle down ¡­ Xi Jiu Er''s plan had never considered that she would one day get married.


    The town was not big, and ex-sister-in-law had brought her to the busiest and busiest street. After wandering a few rounds, everyone was tired, so they found a teahouse and sat down to drink some tea to quench their thirst. There were a total of two floors to the teahouse, so the conditions upstairs were naturally better than downstairs. When Xi Jiu Er and the others reached the second floor, they found that not many people were drinking tea, and there were even a few private rooms.


    ex-sister-in-law originally wanted to book a private room, but was rejected by Xi Jiu Er: "No need, sitting outside can see the scenery, not bad."


    Not long after he sat down, a woman''s voice sounded from the private room: "Husband, mother''s head is getting worse. The doctor said that only the Chinese vanilla herb can calm the mother down." The woman''s voice was sweet and worried. The one who responded was a man''s deep voice, and said helplessly: "I also know, but you know that the Chinese vanilla herb''s gold is extremely hard to get, even if we had silver taels, we might not be able to buy it. Seeing mother like this, I also felt pain in my heart ¡­ But what can we do? "


    Xi Jiu Er and her wife stopped in their conversation without missing a word. She had Chinese vanilla herb s in her space right now, why not take this opportunity to earn some money? As he was thinking, he beckoned the waiter over. "Come here."


    The young lad came running over, laughing as he asked: "Coming, Miss, what orders do you have?" Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s dressing, she was obviously from a rich family. Her tone was especially respectful and her attitude was extremely passionate.


    Qiu Qiu used his spirit energy to make a bag for her. The bag was directly connected to the personal space and she had already picked up the Chinese vanilla herb and put it in her bag. Xi Jiu Er took out the Chinese vanilla herb and handed it over to the waiter: "Give this Chinese vanilla herb to the young master in the private room for me." The Chinese vanilla herb she gave him was the smallest, it could only be used to dry it into powder a few times.


    The waiter had never heard of Chinese vanilla herb, so he did not know that the herb in his hand was hard to find. He nodded: "Ok." He took the Chinese vanilla herb to the private room.


    In the private room sat a man and a woman. Although they weren''t dressed extravagantly, the fabric was excellent. The woman looked to be around eighteen or nineteen, her appearance was very beautiful and graceful. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly with the sadness of saying those words, while holding the kernels, she silently wiped her tears. The man by her side was around twenty years old, had a handsome and elegant bearing, she embraced the woman and whispered: "Don''t cry ¡­ "You''re still pregnant with a child..."


    "Guest ¡­" The waiter stood outside the curtain and asked, "Can I come in?"


    The woman hurriedly wiped her tears as she left the man''s embrace. The man''s face turned pale as he said, "Come in."


    When the lady heard the name Chinese vanilla herb, she immediately shifted her gaze to the waiter''s hands. The herb looked very fresh and tender, with tender green leaves and a faint gold color. Was this a Chinese vanilla herb? Didn''t my husband say that Chinese vanilla herb will only appear in September? How could there be such a fresh Chinese vanilla herb in March? It couldn''t be fake, right?


    The waiter saw the look in their eyes and immediately offered up the grass he thought he was carrying, chuckling as he said, "Young Master Sun, this was what the Miss outside told me to pass on to you."


    "Miss?" Young Master Sun was stunned, then asked: "Did she ask you to give it to me?" "Lift the curtain and take a look ¡­"


    "Eh? He was here just a moment ago, why had he suddenly disappeared? Could it be that he left? " The waiter also did not see Xi Jiu Er''s figure and guessed.


    "Husband, this ¡­ Was this really a Chinese vanilla herb? Didn''t you say that Chinese vanilla herb only grow in September? It''s only March now... It can''t be fake, right? Or does that person have ulterior motives? " The girl slowly stood up and whispered to him. She looked outside cautiously to see if there was anything wrong with the person.


    Young Master Sun took the Chinese vanilla herb and looked at it, and after smelling it, he said with certainty: "It is indeed a Chinese vanilla herb, there is no doubt about it." He was also confused as to why there was such a fresh Chinese vanilla herb this month, and what kind of method was it using to maintain such a newly plucked Chinese vanilla herb. After Sun Xin finished, he asked the waiter, "Do you see what that Miss looks like?"


    The waiter recalled: "That Miss was around thirteen or fourteen years old, with a servant girl and a woman. That woman was so young that she seemed to be the steward of the manor in Xi Family."


    Is that so? Young Master Sun recalled Xi Family ¡­ He seemed to have some impression of it. He gave some silver to the waiter, and told him to find a box ¡­ He was curious as to how she kept the Chinese vanilla herb. The woman walked over and frowned: "Xi Family? But the first talented girl, the number one beauty? What is their purpose? "


    "I don''t know. We''ll just take it one step at a time. We''ll first take care of this Chinese vanilla herb ¡­" Before Young Master Sun could finish his words, the waiter interrupted him: "Young Master Sun, that Miss hasn''t left. He''s in the main hall."


    He didn''t leave? Young Master Sun and his wife looked at each other, trying to find out what was in each other''s eyes.


    In the Main Hall, Xi Jiu Er and the rest were all seated at a conspicuous place. The ex-sister-in-law sat there in a daze as if she had not recovered her senses, her mind was only filled with one thought: Why does Xi Jiu Er have Chinese vanilla herb, why is this Chinese vanilla herb so fresh? She clearly didn''t know what a Chinese vanilla herb was a few days ago.


    Liu Xiang, on the other hand, was looking at Xi Jiu Er''s bag. Her Miss only knew how to make simple needlework. She wouldn''t have made such a beautiful purse ¡­ Did Miss buy this bag? Why didn''t she know? Liu Xiang''s eyes were rolling as she stared at the pouch. Such a small pouch could actually hold such a long stalk of medicinal herb, and it had already snapped.


    Without needing the waiter to say anything, he already knew who it was. He walked over to Xi Jiu Er and politely asked, "Miss, thank you for the Chinese vanilla herb.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed, and did not mind: "Just now, I heard your conversation on the second floor, and thought that you guys urgently needed to use Chinese vanilla herb s. I just happen to have a few plants here, so what''s the harm in giving one to me?" She gave Young Master Sun the smallest one, after listening to their conversation just now she already needed to use Chinese vanilla herb s to calm her mind, this Chinese vanilla herb was just bait.


    Young Master Sun was startled, and asked urgently: "Miss still has more? How many stalks are there? "


    "Hehe, it''s only around ten." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "If Young Master wishes for me to sell it to you, then I cannot give it to you."


    Ten stalks? If there were ten stalks, mother would probably be able to eat and sleep well this year. Young Master Sun immediately said: "Then let me ask Miss to name a price. I will buy one stalk of all of them." The girl beside her also nodded her head repeatedly. Her mother-in-law treated her like her own daughter, and seeing how her mother-in-law was being tormented by illness, she also felt sad. No matter how much money she spent, the Chinese vanilla herb was worth it.


    "Oh?" Xi Jiu Er smiled: "Then may I ask what your price is?"


    The Young Master Sun said in a serious tone: "I won''t be discussing the price with you anymore, a Chinese vanilla herb costs five thousand silvers."


    Five thousand silver taels? Xi Jiu Er''s heart began to contract. Five thousand gold ¡­. She still had twelve stalks, wouldn''t that be sixty thousand yuan? What did sixty thousand yuan mean? Xi Jiu Er stabilized her state of mind and glanced at ex-sister-in-law, to see that even those who were still calm down, had their mouths agape in shock, it seemed like the price was too high.


    "Sure, deal." Xi Jiu Er said unhurriedly: "I still have twelve, prepare the silver and come to the ''Xi Family Courtyard''." She didn''t mind at all revealing her identity. Young Master Sun was obviously a rich and powerful person, she wouldn''t be a stingy person if she offered such a high price, so she might as well tell him so that she could influence him a little.


    All his friends in the four seas, perhaps he would need his help in the future. Who could say for sure what would happen in the future?


    "So it''s Xi Family''s Miss ¡­" Young Master Sun laughed, seeing that the other party was so straightforward about making friends with him, he cupped his hands and said: "Then, I will go prepare the silver."


    "I represent a person, not a Xi Family." Xi Jiu Er declared, "I hope young master can understand."


    "..." "Heh heh, I was rude." Young Master Sun was not a fool either. He wanted to think about the Miss in front of him, and guessed that she was probably the direct descendant of Xi Jiu Er. She was not cowardly like the concubinage, but was well-mannered and well-mannered. Don''t even mention how this Young Master Sun had guessed correctly.


    The lady at the side could not help but look at Xi Jiu Er and bowed slightly before leaving with her husband.


    "S-Miss, that means ¡­ We... "We ¡­" 60,000 taels! She had never seen so much in her life. Liu Xiang opened her eyes wide in disbelief. She couldn''t have heard wrong, right? Since when did her Miss have this grass? The two of them were inseparable, so why hadn''t she seen this grass before? ex-sister-in-law was also puzzled. How could she not know what was in the courtyard? Besides, if the Chinese vanilla herb was planted, how could she not notice it?

 C23

    The Young Master Sun moved even faster than them, the moment they returned to the courtyard, he had already arrived on horseback. He jumped down the horse carriage and laughed: "Miss Xi, I''m here."


    "You came really quickly, wait, I''ll go in the house and give the Chinese vanilla herb to Young Master Sun right now." As they walked into the house, they instructed Liu Xiang and ex-sister-in-law to treat the two Young Master s. ex-sister-in-law and Liu Xiang guessed that there must be some secret.


    Sometimes, in order to punish those who had done wrong, the Sun family would come to the manor and live a pure and lonely life, reflecting on their mistakes in the manor. He had heard about this Ninth Miss of the Xi Family. He had heard that the Ninth Miss was unruly and unreasonable, that he was a domineering person, and that his reputation was not very good.


    But today, it didn''t seem like it was as he had imagined. It seemed that his temper was very good and he was very easy to talk to. It didn''t seem like the rumors were true.


    "I represent myself, not the Xi Family." Listening to these words, the Young Master Sun realized that there must be some sort of secret behind it.


    Young Master Sun was overjoyed. He closed the box with a smile and said, "This is sixty-five thousand taels of silver. Our Sun family will not take advantage of anyone.


    Satisfying. Xi Jiu Er let the ex-sister-in-law count the banknotes, then said to the Young Master Sun: "Young Master Sun doesn''t have the temper of those silkpants I know, I really like them."


    "Hahaha, I also like the personality of Miss Xi. I really like making friends, why not we call each other sibling in the future?" Young Master Sun laughed heartily. This man liked her taste.


    "Then I''ll accept it, Big Brother Sun." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Xi Jiu Er grinned: "Even if we are siblings, we still have to repay this debt explicitly. I will not use this money on the surface to repay you."


    "Hahahaha ¡­" Young Master Sun laughed out loud: "Goodbye for now, I''ll get someone to pick you up another day. We''ll take a seat over there. "Farewell!"


    Young Master Sun was also in a hurry, he carried Chinese vanilla herb and left, looking at his back whose smile was still hanging on the corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth, it felt good to have a friend here.


    "Miss, sixty-five thousand gold, not a single cent less." The ex-sister-in-law passed the silver notes to Xi Jiu Er, and in the end, couldn''t help but ask: "Miss, where did you get that Chinese vanilla herb?"


    Xi Jiu Er said mysteriously: "This is a secret, I won''t tell you guys." Saying so, she smiled while holding the banknotes.


    "ex-sister-in-law, do you know of any farms that are idle here?" Instead of sneaking around like that, it would be better to just grow the herbs out of the blue with his open mind.


    ex-sister-in-law thought of the key point, "Do I want to buy a farm?"


    "That''s right!" Xi Jiu Er nodded, ever since she grew out of the Chinese vanilla herb, she had had this idea. At that time, she planned to buy two taels of silver from the Chinese vanilla herb.


    If it was really effective, it would be a huge fortune to her.


    "Miss, then this servant will go and ask around tomorrow. I''ve heard of people selling things here before." ex-sister-in-law said.


    "Well, we have to buy some people after the farm is settled. We can''t go and plant our own plants." Xi Jiu Er had already calculated that she would be lacking people when the farm was settled.


    "Miss, are we not going back?" Liu Xiang knew that having a farm was not something that could be done in a short time. Did Miss not plan to go back?


    "Of course, we have to go back. But before we go back, we have to make enough money." Xi Jiu Er smiled: As the proverb goes, money can make ghosts work, as long as we have money, we can do things smoothly and easily. Hmph, moreover, even if I want to go back, I will not be able to.


    Liu Xiang thought about it and felt that Xi Jiu Er''s words were reasonable, so she nodded her head: "En, it''s easier to do things with a lot of money."


    The next morning, ex-sister-in-law went to find out more about the farm. She had lived here often, so she knew a lot of things.


    From what the ex-sister-in-law said, the mountain resort was not very good, because although the scenery here was good, it was not summer, so the village was not useful at all. Later on, the people who took over demolished the manor and turned it into a farm, which was not good at managing, so they had nothing to do with it.


    Then, Xi Jiu Er said that the plants on the farm would cost whatever they grew, she did not care at all: "Go and take a look, first let''s see how much it would cost, then I will go and take a look."


    ex-sister-in-law had not come back since she left early in the morning, so Xi Jiu Er decided to ask for directions to take a look. The mountain resort was very easy to find, so Xi Jiu Er casually walked over. She didn''t forget to buy some snacks for the ex-sister-in-law, so he didn''t know if she had eaten lunch yet.


    From afar, the mountain resort looked desolate. The weeds here were lush and lush, much more than in other places. She was a little puzzled, didn''t they say nothing would happen? Why is this weed suitable for growth?


    When he went in to listen carefully, he heard ex-sister-in-law and that fat middle-aged man haggling over the price. To be fair, ex-sister-in-law really had the ability to negotiate, when she walked in to listen carefully, he discovered that she had actually bought the farm for five hundred silver taels.


    "I still need to discuss this with my master before making the decision to rent!" Everyone had already discussed the price, and the last few words that came out of ex-sister-in-law''s mouth almost made the opposing fatty puke from anger. He immediately said angrily: "I say, ex-sister-in-law, are you messing with me? All that you said to me was nonsense? "


    The fat man was completely angered to death by the ex-sister-in-law, he now came back to his senses and said: "Hmph, I hope what you said was true, if not I would definitely not let you off."


    "Sheng San Pang, will you not let me off even if my master does not buy it? What the hell is this? To tell you the truth, my master told me to come over and let her take a look at the manor. The first person I thought of was you, and I also have some connections with you. "It''s not like you don''t know what''s broken and what''ll die and what can be sold. It''s already good enough and my master might even think that five hundred liang is high."


    In the end, he became a good person. Sheng San Pang pursed his lips, the reason why he was so anxious to sell the farm was because although he would lose five hundred gold, if he did not buy it, he would not earn a single cent. Five hundred gold was also the highest price he had bought so far.


    "ex-sister-in-law, buy this place for your master, you aren''t afraid that your master will discover it, when the time comes ¡­" It had to be said that this Sheng San Pang had some conscience as he had not done all those heartless things for his conscience.


    "Don''t worry, when the time comes, I will naturally report everything to Master." ex-sister-in-law did not mind at all. She told Xi Jiu Er about this matter last night, but Xi Jiu Er did not say anything.


    "ex-sister-in-law." Xi Jiu Er shouted.


    ex-sister-in-law turned to see Xi Jiu Er walking over with a smile, and said: "Miss, why are you here?"


    "Look, you didn''t come back, so you came to take a look." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "So this is the owner of this villa?"


    "Yes, my name is Sheng San Pang, and I pay my respects to Miss." Sheng San Pang immediately introduced himself. Xi Family? Why was she here? Sheng San Pang was only suspicious of it for a bit, so he did not gossip about it. After all, this matter had nothing to do with him, he only wanted to sell this place.


    "I heard I bought five hundred silver?" Xi Jiu Er squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil. Looking at it, the soil was very dry, no, it was definitely very hard, even though she was not familiar with the crops, she knew that this soil was not suitable for growing crops.


    "Yes." Sheng San Pang was a little nervous and said with a little guilty conscience.


    Xi Jiu Er did not mind, but asked ex-sister-in-law: "ex-sister-in-law, is the land in the capital similar to this one?" She had some impression that Xi Family had been digging a lotus pond before, and when she passed by, she inadvertently glanced at it.


    ex-sister-in-law was eating cake and tea, her heart inexplicably moved by Xi Jiu Er''s actions. As she ate, he said, "It''s seventy percent similar, the soil in the capital is a little more moist than this."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head: "En, I understand." She stood up and said to Sheng San Pang: "I have bought this land."


    Sheng San Pang was so happy that it sounded like something, but after thinking about it, he said, "Miss, you should know the situation on my land right?" If something were to happen and they came looking for him, how would he dare to provoke them? He did not want to lose the Madame and lose his troops.


    "Don''t worry, I already know the situation. I''ve decided to buy this place." Xi Jiu Er smiled, this Sheng San Pang was a good person: "We can stand on our own, I will definitely not find trouble with you, rest assured."


    Sheng San Pang then put down the unease in his heart, and nodded: "Since that''s the case, we might as well go to the teahouse opposite us. I will draw up a contract, and this deal will be successful."

 C24

    Arriving at the teahouse, Xi Jiu Er who was enjoying her tea could not help but laugh when she saw Sheng San Pang''s word papers. When the papers were ready, she very straightforwardly signed and wrote down her name, telling Sheng San Pang to write down that she had nothing to do with Xi Family in the purchase of the farm, and that it was all Xi Jiu Er''s own decision.


    After Sheng San Pang received the silver, he felt that his burden had been lifted, and his entire being relaxed. With five hundred silver, he would definitely be satisfied, even if he had to say more.


    Sheng San Pang chatted with Xi Jiu Er for a while before he could not help but inform his wife about the matter. He made her happy too, so that she wouldn''t be so nagging in front of him one day.


    Once they left, Liu Xiang asked: Miss, what do you want this land for? You can''t plant anything, so when the time comes, won''t these five hundred silver taels go to waste? "


    Xi Jiu Er smiled as she looked at ex-sister-in-law. "ex-sister-in-law, when I came here, I looked around to see that there are a lot of free land. Why did you recommend this place to me?"


    ex-sister-in-law thought for a moment, then said: "I don''t know, I just think that you might need it!" It had to be said that the ex-sister-in-law thought of something that Xi Jiu Er wanted to know the most. If things could grow out of the worst land, then the fertile land would not be a problem at all. This was what Xi Jiu Er was thinking. She just wanted to test it out with the worst possible land.


    "ex-sister-in-law, I''ll get rid of you for the recruitment." Xi Jiu Er held onto ex-sister-in-law''s hand and said softly, "I''m not familiar with this area, so it''s a lot easier for me with your help." From the past, the general indications were that Ninth Miss had a plan. Was he planning to get rid of Xi Family, or was he planning to secretly accomplish something for himself? ex-sister-in-law smiled slightly: "Miss, this is my duty."


    ex-sister-in-law had thought about it a lot in the past few nights, and from Xi Jiu Er''s reaction, he could tell that the other party was messing with him. In fact, this was not a good opportunity for her to take revenge on her husband''s side.


    "Miss, I''m afraid I can''t do it well." ex-sister-in-law rejected it a few times on purpose.


    "Nonsense, ex-sister-in-law, you are belittling me, Liu Xiang can take care of my food and clothing, and help me cook, but that is just for fun! If you have the ability, then you are different, you can do a lot of things for me outside."


    ex-sister-in-law saw that her actions were normal, so she said: "Miss, then I have a presumptuous request, you must take revenge for my husband."


    "Oh?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, "Who is your enemy?"


    "Tian Family." The ex-sister-in-law said in a melancholy tone. Heavenly family, although she might not be able to do anything with her entire life, if she relied on other people''s power, it might not be impossible. As for Xi Jiu Er, she believed in her intuition that this girl was not simple. Take the Chinese vanilla herb for example, she had too many secrets on her body ¡­


    Maybe she could. ex-sister-in-law thought.


    "Tian Family... "Haha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er chuckled lowly: "No problem, it''s just that I''m not strong enough as a pig yet. Once I become strong enough, I''ll definitely take revenge for you."


    If Xi Jiu Er made a promise to her, she would not believe it. Now, she believed that Xi Jiu Er truly agreed to it, but that was on the premise that she was strong enough. Xi Family ¨C had first talented girl, the number one beauty in the world. This was also one of the important wishes that she had agreed to follow Xi Jiu Er.


    "Then, this humble one thanks the Ninth Miss for his agreement." The ex-sister-in-law gave a grand bow before attacking and hurriedly raising his arrow: "From now on, we are family. Your business is my business."


    It seems like the day before yesterday was not bad, so why don''t we rent a carriage and take a walk around the outskirts? I heard someone say that there''s a Peony Courtyard in the outskirts, and no one can take care of it. On the way, she heard that the peony was very pretty and had a strange shape. If it was really a rare variety, she could put it into her own space. Once the farm was ready, she could try planting it herself.


    "Alright." Liu Xiang was the first to agree. She knew that she was the only one by her side in Miss, and there was no way that she could not have a Servant to trust. The ex-sister-in-law had taught her many things, and it would be even better if she served the Miss together with her.


    "You are very sad about this." Xi Jiu Er said helplessly.


    Afterwards, they rented a carriage and went to the outskirts of the city. There were still a lot of people on the road, but ex-sister-in-law said that it was a long way off, and the people here could still walk for such a long distance.


    Aside from those who were walking alone, there were also many people who went to take a look. No one knew what was going on in front of them, but they blocked off the path ahead. The bustling noise came from ahead, and some people seemed to be dissatisfied, especially the people who were in the carriage, complaining quite a bit.


    Faintly hearing the words'' Sun family ''and'' Mrs. Sun''s production ''from the crowd, Xi Jiu Er did not say anything: "Come, let''s go down and take a look, it''s just Big Brother Sun''s carriage, I just heard someone saying that Mrs. Sun is about to produce." Because of the spring water, personal space''s ears were clearer than others. The three of them got out of the carriage, walked around the crowd of people and carriages, and asked the coachman, "Is this the Sun family''s carriage?"


    The coachman was obviously anxious as well. His forehead was covered in sweat as he replied, "Yes." Then he shouted, "My Young Master asks which one of you is the midwife. Our Madame is about to give birth ¡­"


    A painful moan came out from the carriage, it was indeed Young Master Sun''s wife, Mrs. Sun, and within them was Young Master Sun''s voice. Xi Jiu Er was still a young lady that had not come out of the pavilion, and now that she was in the public eye, she could only give up if she wanted to enter. There were no midwives in the crowd. Perhaps there were those who just didn''t stand out. If there was anything good to do here, it would definitely be worth their life. The Sun family wasn''t the kind of place to mess with.


    "Miss, I will deliver the baby, but I am not a midwife. Hearing that the Mrs. Sun''s voice was weak, it is clear that it is a symptom of childbirth ¡­ " ex-sister-in-law carefully judged from the voice. On the other hand, Xi Jiu Er remained calm: "How confident are you in this?"


    "Fifty percent." Actually, she had the confidence of being able to deliver the baby from the sixth floor, but she was not sure what was going on inside, so she reduced it by 10%.


    "Don''t worry, even if I have fifty percent confidence in Sister-in-law Sun, she would still be fine." It was because of the spring water that she wouldn''t let anything happen to Sister-in-law Sun. As for the extremely confident Xi Jiu Er, he could not help but look at her a few more times. Perhaps it was because the confident look on Xi Jiu Er''s clothes influenced him, causing him to be afraid.


    "Big Brother Sun, I''m Miss Xi. My servants will deliver the baby." Xi Jiu Er called out to the carriage, and in the next moment, she saw Young Master Sun lifted the curtain and came out hurriedly, looking extremely nervous: "Where is he?"


    "It''s her." Xi Jiu Er pointed at ex-sister-in-law and said, "You can go in."


    "Sorry for the trouble ¡­" If there is anything you need to protect master. " Young Master Sun was sweating profusely as he said this to the ex-sister-in-law. Her words were heard by the people in the carriage, and the Mrs. Sun resolutely said: "I want to protect my child."


    "To me, you are the most important person for you to say something like that at such a time." The Young Master Sun was displeased, and repeatedly warned him to prepare to board the carriage, "You must protect your child, and don''t listen to her."


    "Right." ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "I will try my best."


    The moment ex-sister-in-law entered the horse carriage, she immediately sat down on the carriage as if she was an ant on a hot pan. Xi Jiu Er had comforted him many times, but to no avail, she decided not to comfort him and just let him be in a hurry. Painful sounds came from the carriage as the ex-sister-in-law continuously made her breathe in and out. Gradually, the ex-sister-in-law began to grow anxious and her voice became less calm.


    She had asked around in the town, and this was the Sun family''s most important eldest son. If anything happened to him, she would be finished. In the end ¡ª ¡ª ex-sister-in-law began to cry out in alarm, "Miss, Mrs. Sun''s vital energy and blood are insufficient ¡­ ¡­" There was a lack of Qi and blood. Ordinary women had extremely weak bodies due to having too much blood ¡­ There would be three scenarios: one corpse, two lives, blood, difficult to give birth ¡­ No matter how comfortable they were, they were not in a good situation.


    Although Xi Jiu Er had never given birth to a child, she could tell from the nervous and uneasy voice that the situation was bad. She immediately lifted the curtain and walked in. The carriage was luxurious and comfortable, a pungent smell of blood could almost make people want to puke. Mrs. Sun laid on the board, breathing heavily, the servant girl was so scared she could not speak, probably because of the production scene.


    Both of his hands were stained with blood. He raised his head and said to Xi Jiu Er with a pale face, "Miss ¡­" However, Xi Jiu Er completely ignored her. She took out a small porcelain bottle from her bag, opened Mrs. Sun''s mouth and poured the water from the spring into it.


    "You, what are you doing ¡­" The servant then reacted, "What did you feed the Madame?"


    "A lifesaver." Xi Jiu Er looked at the chattering servant coldly. The maid was so scared that he was trembling, as though he was afraid of what he was doing, and could not open his eyes to look at the Mrs. Sun in front of his.


    "Young Master, she, she fed something to Madame, Madame... Madame... " The servant suddenly pointed at Xi Jiu Er, looking at how Xi Jiu Er was acting, it was as if she had done something against the world, if something were to happen to the Mrs. Sun, it must have been her.

 C25

    A cold and emotionless smile appeared on Xi Jiu Er''s face. It was a very meaningful smile, as if she could see through everything, and facing the Young Master Sun''s eyes that were investigating about the realm, she said calmly: "I''m saving people, not killing them, whether or not you believe me is up to Big Brother Sun''s judgement."


    "Ugh ¡­" The pregnant woman who had been on the verge of death had already opened her eyes. She looked at the group of people surrounding her with a blank look before her gaze finally fell upon her husband.


    As if his mind was connected, Young Master Sun immediately walked over and held his beloved wife''s hands and asked anxiously: "How are you feeling, is there anything wrong? Is your stomach still hurting? "


    Mrs. Sun shook her head blankly and caressed her lower abdomen: "It''s so strange, the pain has lessened, it''s not really painful at all ¡­ I thought I was going to die and that I would never see you again. I had to protect my child no matter what. My life is not important. "


    "Nonsense, how could your life not be important? To me, you are more important than a child." Great Young Master Sun immediately retorted, "There will be more children in the future. There will be more."


    Xi Jiu Er could not watch this any longer and ordered the carriage driver to turn around and return back to the house. She and the spring water could temporarily stabilize the fetus, she was sure that the child and the assaulter would be able to keep it. In her heart, she was not only envious, but this couple truly loved each other. It could be seen that Young Master Sun doted on his wife very much ¡­


    "Big Brother Sun, it''s not the time for us to part from this life yet. We can start production when we get home." Xi Jiu Er said somewhat helplessly. After all, these two people had shown their love in front of him, so why didn''t they consider her feelings?


    The carriage had already turned around and was heading back, and it was not driving very fast, although it was bumpy, but on the thick blanket and with his arms, the Mrs. Sun soldier felt that he was bumpy.


    "Sister Xi, what did you just give me to eat? I feel my whole body being warm. I originally didn''t have any strength, but now I feel energetic. The child in my womb has also become a lot more obedient ¡­ " Mrs. Sun leaned into his husband''s embrace and smiled faintly.


    This was the first time that they had been busy discussing business matters, and they did not have a good look at this sister-in-law. One could not help but admit that her facial features were very delicate.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "Hehe, that is my exclusive secret recipe, it is not to be spread out."


    "Hehehe ¡­" Mrs. Sun stopped talking, he leaned into his husband''s embrace and felt waves after waves of pain. Although it was still very painful, it had already lessened by a lot. The pain just now had been like sucking out one''s own bone marrow. It was as if it wanted to empty his own body.


    ex-sister-in-law checked on the situation of the Mrs. Sun as she wiped off her sweat and heaved a sigh of relief. If not for the timely appearance of Miss, one corpse and two lives would have been lost on the spot. She was very curious about what he had fed her at that time to have such a miraculous effect.


    After a quarter of an hour passed, Young Master Sun carefully brought his wife down the carriage. Just as he walked a few steps, he heard Xi Jiu Er''s voice from behind him: "Big Brother Sun, I think you should tie her up first."


    Young Master Sun was startled. Actually, he felt that this time was a little unusual, the doctor had already said that there were still a few more days before the dishes would be produced, and when they left there, they would be fine. However, such a situation suddenly appeared, and even if he was not a woman, she could tell that something was amiss.


    "Alright!" Without saying a word, his intuition told him that Xi Jiu Er would not harm him, that she must have her own motives for doing so. Now that the servant was so scared that her face turned ashen, she was able to confirm his thoughts. However, this was not the time for him to be angry. He immediately rushed in with the child in his arms, yelling at the maid to be bundled up so that he could prepare to give birth.


    "Why did you tie me up?" The maid''s mind was spinning fast. She must not be trapped. If she was trapped, how could she possibly escape?


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her coldly: "Could it be that you don''t know that if you want to be someone who doesn''t know, you can only do it yourself?" After that, she no longer cared about the terrified and dazed servant girl as she brought people into the courtyard.


    Since he was already here, there was no reason not to pay him a visit.


    "Miss, did you also smell that strange fragrance?" ex-sister-in-law whispered from behind. The moment she entered the carriage, she could smell a faint, sweet fragrance mixed with the stench of blood and incense. It was so unpleasant that one would not be able to smell it unless they had a keen nose.


    "Right." How could Xi Jiu Er possibly smell it? At that moment, she was already close to vomiting due to the pungent smell of blood and the chaotic smell. How could she possibly have the heart to smell anything?


    From afar, he could hear the voice of the Young Master Sun, "Where is he? Where is he? A servant in the courtyard brought them to the great hall to pour tea and snacks. Xi Jiu Er was only putting on an act, from time to time he would drink a mouthful and he would feel extremely bored. After waiting for a while, she finally suggested taking a walk around the mansion. The servants immediately brought her there. Gradually, he found out that this place was only used to living in the Old Madam Sun, and that the Old Madam Sun wanted to place importance on Sun Ming.


    "Servant was wrong, Servant was wrong ¡­ Old Madame has forgiven Servant ¡­ Servant was wrong... Servant will not dare to do so again. " From the distance, the voice of a servant girl could be heard. Xi Jiu Er recognized her as the servant girl from the Mrs. Sun, seeing how she was being dragged out covered in wounds by a few rough servants, she guessed that her life would not be able to take it.


    "Old Miss, this way please." After walking around the entire courtyard, an old lady hurried over to pay her respects to Xi Jiu Er. When Xi Jiu Er went to the old Madame, he saw that the old Madame was laughing merrily: "Quickly take a seat, take a seat, you are the savior of our Sun family, if not for you, my great-grandson would have ¡­ ¡­ "Go, go and get my box."


    "Did sister-in-law give birth?" Xi Jiu Er heard her say that her ''great-grandson'' wasn''t her ''great-granddaughter'', and was actually a Young Master?


    "It''s born, it''s born! Where''s that fat boy with seven pounds and eight taels!" Old Madam Sun laughed out loud. No matter how she looked at it, Xi Jiu Er was the lucky star of the Sun family, and she had previously bought her medicine from her. So when old mother gave the small box to her, she opened it and signaled for old mother to give Xi Jiu Er everything in the box.


    "I told you to take it, this is a little gift from my wife. I don''t have a granddaughter, and she''s already married. What''s the use of keeping it? Why don''t I give it to you?" If you say that you are sworn brothers, then you will be my granddaughter. Isn''t it my wife''s duty to give my granddaughter things? " Old Madam Sun''s face sank, and said unhappily: "Could it be that your Xi Family is looking down on our Sun family?"


    Ouch, now the whole family is involved in personal matters? Xi Jiu Er had no choice but to accept it as the Old Madam Sun revealed a smile. The two of them conversed for a while. Old Madam Sun''s personality was straightforward and straightforward, her speech came from him, and her personality was very friendly. Xi Jiu Er liked this Old Madam Sun a lot.


    Old Madam Sun brought Xi Jiu Er to see Mrs. Sun, who was carrying the child as she chuckled idiotically, "Grandmother, Little Sister Jiu Er, look, you look really ugly." Even though her mouth was ugly, her face was brimming with the joy and excitement of a father. Xi Jiu Er thought that if she were to marry someone, would his husband be like his big brother?


    "You''re the ugly one, come here great-grandson ¡­" After Old Madam Sun bought a few angry curses, she hugged her child and started to cheer for him. The child was still asleep in the cradle, Old Madam Sun''s loud voice had not woken the child up.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, thank you." Young Master Sun paid his respects to Xi Jiu Er.


    "I can''t do that. This is what I should do, what I should do." Xi Jiu Er immediately supported her Young Master Sun.


    The child was changing everyday. Whenever Xi Jiu Er had the time, she would go and visit the child. Seeing her bright red face turn into a lovable little girl in the blink of an eye, she felt that it was very magical. I bought a lot of fun for my kid, nice things to look at...


    The Old Madam Sun was continuously destroying Xi Jiu Er, and her words showed that she wanted the Young Master Sun to join in as well! Old Madam Sun would definitely think that this place was profitable. Xi Jiu Er was actually planning for this, she reckoned that the time to return to the Xi Mansion was not far, and this manor needed someone to take care of it, since the Sun family had interfered and came in, she could let the Sun family take care of it after she leaves.


    And so, Xi Jiu Er straightforwardly agreed.


    Old Madam Sun and Young Master Sun chatted happily all night: This Xi Family is no ordinary thing, you have to get close to her in the future, there will be a day when our Sun family will have to rely on her to make a name for itself.


    "Grandmother is right, grandson thinks so too. This woman has an extraordinary bearing, she is frank and sincere ¡­ "Even if he isn''t a great character, his grandson would like to make friends with him." The Young Master Sun laughed.


    Honest and honest? This idiot grandson, with that eye of his, could he see that the other party was being honest? The other person''s eyes were rolling around nonstop. It was clear from one look that this little fox had the manner of a fox! However, when he thought about it again, it could be seen that Xi Jiu Er truly cared for her grandson and daughter-in-law. He then became happy, "She''s quite capable. Last time, I asked the doctor, if your wife drank something that strengthened her foundation and nurtured her spirit, then she would be able to protect her child. She has this kind of treasure and is now planting medicinal herbs, just watch and see ¡­"


    "So Grandmother is giving her granddaughter this path." No wonder, he was curious as to why she did not understand the medicinal herbs yet still chose to use it to aid him. There was such a hidden meaning behind this.


    "You silly brat, what do you know!" Mrs. Sun laughed: "You have a child, everything is not for you alone. You have to plan for your child, your son''s ambition is high, if friends have more ways to go, you have to pave the way for him!"


    "Yes."

    "Miss, behind us is a man with a thick beard. Servant is very scared, are they not bad people?" Liu Xiang worriedly asked as she came closer.


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look at Liu Xiang''s words, and sure enough, a man with a full beard was following behind him. When she saw Xi Jiu Er looking at him, his expression changed slightly, and she disappeared into the alley in front of Xi Jiu Er. It seemed like he did not intentionally follow them, she had merely left them behind!


    "Phew, that scared Servant to death. Servant even thought that he was a bad guy!" Liu Xiang heaved a sigh of relief, and patted her chest, which scared her so much that she broke out in cold sweat, and could not be blamed for being suspicious, but all the way here, she kept feeling that many people were staring at her, but she turned her head and did not see anyone, could it be that she was being overly suspicious?


    Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Xiang thought about whether she should go get a horse carriage. It was really tiring to walk back and forth like this, and after the scare just now, although she guessed wrong, what if there really was someone who had ill intentions towards him?


    The two of them walked into a remote alley, and suddenly, a man with a full beard came out in front of them. It was the man who Liu Xiang had said that she would follow them.


    Liu Xiang had guessed it right, this person really had evil intentions. Xi Jiu Er looked at the man that was approaching her step by step. She quickly looked around her surroundings, only to see a beggar that seemed to be asleep on the ground not far away.


    "Hero, if you have anything to say, just say it. As long as you want more money, you can have it. As long as you let me go." She believed that the person who took out the banknotes would be moved if nothing unexpected happened. But to a normal person, with a thousand gold, it was a huge sum.


    As expected, the man''s eyes lit up as he greedily stared at the 1000 taels of silver in Xi Jiu Er''s hands. He never expected her to have this much on her body, so she should have even more silver in her family. The man looked left and right, thinking that Xi Jiu Er was really beautiful, why not let her be his wife?


    Xi Jiu Er saw that the man''s gaze had changed from greedy to scheming, with a pair of eyes rolling on her body, it was obvious that she did not have any good intentions. Her heart sank. This time, it would be a little difficult.


    The man had an evil smile on his face as he sized Xi Jiu Er up: "Hehe, I can let you go, but as long as you become my wife, I will definitely not do anything to you! I am actually a very gentle person. As long as you follow me, I will definitely treat you well! "


    Xi Jiu Er almost vomited, she was too disgusting! He did not even look at herself in the mirror to see what kind of person she was, she should be around the age of Xi Hong Sheng. Xi Jiu Er endured her disgust and said, "That''s not good ¡­ "After all, the word of a matchmaker from his parents ¡­"


    The man with a thick cheek felt something was off, so he immediately said, "We don''t necessarily need the words of a matchmaker. As long as you have me in your heart, your parents will definitely agree to it." The reason why he robbed Xi Jiu Er was because she saw Xi Jiu Er walking out of the jade artifact store several times. The gambling den was right opposite to the shop and she would happen to see Xi Jiu Er every time she came out.


    He had lost it all today and was extremely depressed. Thus, he thought to himself about why he shouldn''t rob ¡­ Even if the robbery did not succeed, he could still earn some money by selling the person to a brothel. Thus, he followed Xi Jiu Er, and was not too interested in Xi Jiu Er''s identity. Seeing how rich Xi Jiu Er was, with such a large amount of silver, her family would definitely be rich, hence she had no plans to buy the brothel.


    When Xi Jiu Er heard his shameless words, her face almost turned green, while Liu Xiang behind Jiu Lian also revealed a look of disdain. However, no matter what, this trial still had to be passed. She smiled sweetly and said, "But we don''t have that many feelings, how about we cultivate it first?"


    Therefore, he could not sit still anymore. He planned to drag Xi Jiu Er into the small alley first, and it had been a long time since he last touched a woman. This time, it was for the best of both worlds.


    "Alright, let''s cultivate our relationship now!" The man with a long face suddenly took a step forward, intending to pull Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er agilely dodged him. He looked at his empty hand, and then said with a sinister look: "You actually dare to dodge."


    "Quick, run." Xi Jiu Er pulled Liu Xiang and started to run, while shouting, "Help ¡ª ¡ª Help ¡ª ¡ª"


    It was a pity that very few people walked into this alley. Furthermore, at this time, everyone was having their meal inside the house, so it was useless for Xi Jiu Er to call out to him. Looking at Xi Jiu Er who was scampering away, the man''s face changed slightly and she immediately chased after her, "Hahaha ¡­ Run, scream, I want to see who can save you! "Hahaha ¡­"


    Because Xi Jiu Er had the spring water and frequent soaks of spring water, her body was as light as a swallow, and she could no longer endure and fell onto the ground. Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned her head, and saw the guy with gills grabbing Liu Xiang. Ye Zichen laughed complacently.


    "Run, run. I want to see where you can run to!" The man swiped the dagger across Liu Xiang''s face, causing him to tremble in fear until her face turned white. She gritted her teeth and looked at Xi Jiu Er, telling him to quickly escape! At most, she would just die and not let the man capture Miss.


    "Let her go! "If there''s anything, we can talk about it ¡­" Xi Jiu Er sucked in a cold breath. Liu Xiang was the most important person to him, to be treated as a family member by the Wei Guogong. How could she allow Liu Xiang to fall into the hands of a bad person? The man knew at a glance that this wasn''t a good thing. How could the video end up in his hands?


    "Speak properly? Humph! I am going to enjoy this blessing! " The man coldly snorted and revealed a lewd smile. Suddenly, ''Dingdang'', the dagger in the man''s hand fell to the ground. He painfully covered the dagger as he yelled: "Who, who is that?!"


    Blood was already seeping out of the man''s hands. He looked around in pain and found no one else but the beggar lying motionlessly beside him. Xi Jiu Er took this opportunity to immediately pull Liu Xiang and run, and was still caught by the man with a thick nose.


    "Trying to run? No way!" How could he let the prey he had caught get thrown at him to escape? When that happened, he would not be able to get anything out of it!


    At this moment, the beggar at the side slowly stood up and coldly said, "Let go of the girls in your hands, let them go."


    The beggar was covered in black paint and was so dirty that one could no longer see the appearance of the cloth. One could only see that he was short and his face was dirty and his eyes were as sharp as a sword.


    "Hmph, if you want me to let you go, then let me go! Stop dreaming!" Just now, he didn''t know what had hurt him. He was sure that the person in front of him was very capable. He didn''t dare to offend him, but he also didn''t want to give up the opportunity that he had gained.


    "Then I won''t be polite." As she spoke, she suddenly walked up and slapped the man with the thick nose. Such a big man should just stop rolling on the ground. He covered her face in fear as she looked at the beggar. Then, she scrambled to get away.


    "Thank you for saving me!" Xi Jiu Er immediately thanked the beggar.


    "You''re welcome." The beggar said indifferently.


    "In order to repay benefactor, I''ll treat you to a meal at the mansion tonight, okay?" Xi Jiu Er was about to say something to the beggar, but she heard the sound of the beggar''s stomach rumbling. Although she couldn''t see the beggar''s expression clearly, she could tell that the beggar was embarrassed.


    "Let''s go." Xi Jiu Er laughed amiably, and the beggar hesitated for a moment before following Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang. When he got home, the ex-sister-in-law had already been waiting eagerly for a long time.


    "ex-sister-in-law, clean her up. We''ll eat together with her tonight." Xi Jiu Er instructed the ex-sister-in-law, and told him to cook a few more dishes!


    About fifteen minutes later, ex-sister-in-law brought over a cute and innocent looking girl. Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang were currently discussing what had happened today, and the moment they saw the girl, both of them cried out in shock.


    "How old are you?" Xi Jiu Er could not help but ask.


    The girl said rather awkwardly, "He''s seventeen years old."


    What? He''s seventeen years old and looks eleven or twelve years old, younger than me?! Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that she had a face that could deceive the world, and asked again: "What is your name?"


    "Liu Shui." It was as if he was extremely unwilling to say his name, and it seemed to have a hint of repulsion. Xi Jiu Er did not ask anymore, and only said: "Alright, let''s eat."


    At first, Liu Shui was a little reserved, but after that, he began to open his arms and eat. The three of them looked at her in astonishment as she quickly scooped up food and dug it for herself, their actions making them sigh that they were not even able to catch up to his in their entire lives. Taking advantage of this situation, ex-sister-in-law understood what happened and said worriedly: "Miss, if that evil person is let go, I''m afraid he will cause trouble for us later!"


    "Bang!" Liu Shui put down the empty bowl and said: "That won''t happen, she won''t come looking for trouble again. That slap of mine seemed to have broken half of his face, he won''t live past tonight."


    He actually had such a high skill! Xi Jiu Er thought about what she should do if she were to encounter such a situation again in the future. How great would it be if Liu Shui was able to be of use to her?


    "Liu Shui, is there anyone else in your family? How did you become a beggar? " Xi Jiu Er started to probe her roots, ex-sister-in-law also understood Xi Jiu Er''s use and decided to help from the side.


    "How about... "Oh no, come with us." Xi Jiu Er revealed her purpose. However, she would not force him if she did not agree. "Erm, if you don''t agree, then I will not force you." Seeing that Liu Shui was obviously startled when he heard the news, he only said in the end, "Um, I''ve eaten more, do you mind?"

 C27

    "Open the door! Quickly open the door!" A young girl''s voice suddenly sounded from outside the door. She was pounding on the door, or more accurately speaking, she was not knocking at all.


    The master and his servant were in the house laughing, hearing that, everyone''s face darkened, Liu Xiang frowned: It''s Si Ping, Miss Rong''s servant girl. Xi Wan Rong? But did she come? No matter what she did, it would definitely not be a good thing. She and her were like fire and water, and this time, she was definitely looking for trouble from the Xi Family.


    "I''ll go open the door." went to open the door, and asked plainly through the door: "Who is it, who are you looking for?"


    Si Ping said with a haughty and disdainful voice, "We were sent by the Xi Family, and we came to look for ¡ª for the Ninth Miss. Open the door quickly, it''s so hot outside!"


    The ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "From the capital''s Xi Family? "Why haven''t we received any letters yet? You must be faking it, right? I won''t open the door for you without any letters from my master." Was it hot to death? So what if I provoke you?


    Liu Xiang pursed her lips and laughed. This ex-sister-in-law was really smart to think of a way to discipline Si Ping! This Si Ping relied on her master''s favor to be lawless, hmph!


    From the tension outside, Si Ping said in disbelief: "What did you say? And a letter? Call me a liar! Do you know who I am? I am Si Ping, Miss Rong''s personal servant, Miss Rong is my number one beauty, and also my most favored Miss! If you don''t open the door now, you''ll be in for it. "


    Liu Xiang curled her lips, her ex-sister-in-law not moving in the slightest: "Really? You are a servant of the Miss Rong? Although I have never been to the Xi Family, but I have heard that the Miss Rong is well-informed and gentle, why would there be such a unruly servant like you?


    Si Ping who was outside the door did not seem to say anything, and was probably angry. Finally, she said: "Elder sister, you are the manager of this courtyard? Go call the Ninth Miss over, she recognizes my voice. "


    "Ninth Miss is the master, how could I, a servant, dare to work for you? Don''t joke around, if you don''t take out the letter, I would definitely not open the door. What if you are bandits and bad people? " This Si Ping was not stupid, if she could not find a way, then she would take a different route.


    "You, you ¡­" Si Ping trembled a little. Needless to say, she was furious, when the voice of an old granny came from outside the door, "Is it ex-sister-in-law? I am Mrs. Zhang... A few months ago, I went back home to see you, remember? Do you still recognize my voice? "


    "Mm ¡­" "Let me think ¡­" ex-sister-in-law pretended to ponder for a moment before saying: "You really are an old granny Zhang, did you come from the Xi Family to invite Ninth Miss back?"


    This is absolutely true. Old Madame said that Ninth Miss is an intelligent person, and during these few months, she must have already known where she went wrong, so he asked her to come back. This Prince Fu is really worried about her too.


    Is that so? I''m afraid the last sentence is the main point. Based on Xi Family''s current prestige and power, how could she be compared with Wei Guogong? The Xi Family could hide it for a lifetime. If the Wei Guogong wanted to see his granddaughter, they would not let her go, right?


    "So that''s how it is. Sorry, sorry. I was rude." Ah Zi opened the door as she continued to apologize, "I''ve wronged you all by treating you as thieves. It''s my fault, it''s my fault." She was considering the safety of her master. What was wrong with her? Of course she couldn''t be blamed. The moment she opened the door, she saw a young girl standing angrily to the side. The person standing in the middle of the door was an old woman. Other than the two of them, there were also five or six other servants.


    It was a hot day, and in the next second their faces were covered in perspiration. Si Ping fanned them with a handkerchief, and when she saw the door open, everyone''s faces relaxed. When Si Ping saw Liu Xiang who was laughing uncontrollably at the side, she immediately scolded: "Alright, you slut. Even though you knew it was me, you still came to play with us, didn''t you?"


    Si Ping had some looks on her face, but after scolding her, her face was drenched in sweat, she immediately became sinister, and wanted to come up and fix Liu Xiang''s face. Liu Xiang took a step back and said coldly, "Si Ping, I''ve also only just arrived, I don''t know what you''re talking about. Also, you''re a servant of the Miss Rong, it''s her honor to know that you have a servant girl like you by your side, it would really be embarrassing for the Miss Rong."


    Liu Xiang also felt that she was useless. Seeing that the other maids were doing better than him, she blamed herself in his heart. She wanted to protect her master, so she had to be strong and not let others bully her master.


    The corner of Si Ping''s mouth twitched, and ridiculed: "Alright, I haven''t seen you grow any abilities in a few months." Liu Xiang did not care about Si Ping, since they were both maids, they were not that noble towards each other.


    Mrs. Zhang also agreed with Liu Xiang, this Si Ping was truly a shrew, a detestable person. Along the way, she not only guided them, she even thought that she was a Great Miss. Old Mrs. Zhang did not care about Si Ping and only asked ex-sister-in-law: "ex-sister-in-law, is Ninth Miss in the house?" Wasn''t this nonsense? Could it be that she was still outside on such a hot day?


    "Yes, come with me." ex-sister-in-law was neither passionate nor estranged, and did her job as a servant just right.


    "Do you have any water? I''m dying of thirst." Si Ping ran for half a day and then basked in the sunlight for half a day. and the rest hurriedly entered the house, only to see Xi Jiu Er sitting at a table. Not only were there delicious pastries on the table, there was also a cooling cup of tea.


    After hurriedly bowing to Xi Jiu Er, Si Ping didn''t care about anything else as she poured herself a cup of water and gulped it down. After drinking almost all the water and becoming hungry, she picked up a pastry and started to eat it. One bite of pastry and one sip of water was extremely delicious to him.


    Xi Jiu Er, who was at the side, raised the corner of her mouth and looked at her coldly, but did not make a sound to stop her.


    When ex-sister-in-law brought her men over, she saw Si Ping sitting face to face with Xi Jiu Er, holding a pastry in one hand while eating it and drinking tea, and even burped. After Si Ping finished eating and drank, she noticed that everyone was looking at her strangely, and immediately reacted and saluted Xi Jiu Er: "It''s a dereliction of duty on my part, Servant. Please forgive me, Ninth Miss. It was really because Servant was extremely thirsty that he did this. "


    Raising her head to look at Xi Jiu Er''s ice-cold eyes, she was shocked.


    "It is indeed within reason ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said slowly, "But ¡­ You are my Elder Sister Rong''s personal servant, your words and actions are my Elder Sister Rong''s face. Elder Sister Rong did not care about you at all when you were young, and has indulged yourself a little, but because of this, you became a person without a master. It can be said that you have a past, but if it was in the outside world, it would be too embarrassing.


    Punishing her? Si Ping immediately said, "Ninth Miss, you, you cannot punish Servant!"


    Xi Jiu Er smirked: "Why?"


    "Because the Servant is a servant of the Miss Rong, not a servant of the Ninth Miss." Si Ping immediately replied. When she heard that Xi Jiu Er wanted to punish her, she had a bad feeling.


    You are a servant of our Xi Mansion, and I am a servant of the Xi Mansion, so I am your master as well. What a joke. " Xi Jiu Er sneered, and instructed the ex-sister-in-law: "ex-sister-in-law, how do you think this servant should be punished?"


    ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "I will listen to your orders, Ninth Miss will do whatever you ask me to do."


    "Fine, give me a slap on the face for twenty." Xi Jiu Er ordered coldly, without emotion, as she shouted with her mouth wide open: "Ninth Miss, you cannot do this!"


    "Shouting at the master, not listening to the master''s commands. If you know your wrongs, don''t change it and add another twenty." Xi Jiu Er coldly snorted, "I don''t mind if you continue shouting."


    Completely stunned by Xi Jiu Er''s pair of ice-cold eyes, ex-sister-in-law stepped forward, lifted her sleeve to reveal her fair white arm, and swung her arm over. With a "shua shua" sound, the clear sound of clapping came one after another.


    Si Ping was in so much pain that she couldn''t even open her mouth to say a single word. She felt that the meat on her left and right was burning in pain, and she only needed to slightly move her mouth to be heart-wrenching. Sister-in-law Zhang beside her cursed in her heart. How amazing was it that she was Xi Wan Rong''s maid? Her master had the right to beat her up no matter what he wanted.


    "Ninth Miss, Princess Rongwang''s body is healed. I wanted to ask you to come and drink some tea because I missed you!" Old Mrs. Zhang chuckled: "Old Madame and First Lady also miss Miss a lot, they love to talk about him everyday." This old granny''s lips moved as she said all sorts of pleasant words, her descriptions even more vivid and picturesque, as if she had seen the First Lady and the Old Madame say these words with her own eyes.


    "ex-sister-in-law, watch this properly. We will set off later!" Xi Jiu Er replied lazily.

 C28

    Xi Jiu Er returned from the manor all the way back into the evening. Although First Lady was unhappy, she still needed to properly arrange everything for Xi Jiu Er for the sake of being virtuous, so when Xi Jiu Er returned, the house was swept clean and the food was already prepared.


    It had to be said that if the First Lady was his own, it would be extremely good. She was the one who killed her mother! The maids in the room had all been replaced, and Xi Jiu Er arranged a room for ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui, with exactly three people, they could take care of each other and save time.


    As Xi Jiu Er ate, she listened to the servant talk about the situation of the house. There were not many changes in the house, it was just that a new Madame had arrived ¡ª White Lady. Since the White Lady was beautiful, she had to take care of it as well. Xi Hong Sheng had already stayed in her room for the past few nights. Xi Jiu Er nodded her head but she did not mind, it had already been one or two days since Xi Hong Sheng was lustful, he did not want to bother with the servants, if word of this got out, he would not have any face, so looking outside was not bad.


    The maidservant also said that White Lady was a widow. If they were to get married, wouldn''t that mean the husband would die? He had previously thought that this matter was ordinary, but now it seemed that this matter wasn''t as simple as it seemed.


    Xi Jiu Er hurriedly finished her meal and let ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui go to sleep so that Liu Xiang could help him take a bath! In the shadow of the candle, Xi Jiu Er handed over Xi Jiu Er''s arm that was as smooth as jade to Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang placed a paper bag beside him, which was covered with cinnabar powder. In the manor, Xi Jiu Er had unintentionally heard those elders discussing how to make a censer sand that was fake so it wouldn''t be discovered.


    First, he had to use a scalding silver needle to pierce the skin, and then he would use the word ''fast'' to pierce the cinnabar into the skin. Only by repeatedly using the word ''repeatedly'' a dozen times could its effect be seen.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Xiang expressionlessly. Did it hurt? It still hurt, but this kind of pain was nothing compared to the headache she had in her previous life when she wanted to smash her head against a wall! Liu Xiang became more and more proficient at it, and finally, she finished using ''gatekeeping sand''. Seeing that it was really the case, Liu Xiang wiped away the sweat on her forehead.


    "Go to sleep, let''s go pay respects to the old Madame first." Xi Jiu Er told Liu Xiang to go back and sleep, and for a new servant to stand guard.


    On the side, Xi Wan Rong watched as her servant was beaten to such a state that she became extremely angry. Xi Jiu Er, just you wait, watch how I deal with you, you bitch!


    The next morning, Xi Jiu Er got the servants to help him wash up, and after eating, she brought Liu Xiang to pay respects to the old Madame. When they went to greet the old Madame, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng were already there. But son Xi Wan Rong was here to take care of Xi Jiu Er, so he woke up a long time ago and brought Si Ping along with him.


    After Xi Jiu Er greeted everyone, the old Madame waved for her to come over with a smile. "Come over here and let Grandmother look at you."


    Xi Jiu Er walked over obediently. When the old Madame saw how energetic she was, she laughed and said, "En, I see that you are being well-behaved now, and have reflected on it carefully. I feel a lot more gratified looking at you!" As she spoke, the old Madame took off the bracelet on her wrist and handed it over to Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er didn''t dare to accept it at all.


    "Grandmother, she''s just being well-behaved in front of you, who knows how she''s going to go crazy if she''s in a place you can''t see." Xi Wan Rong said unhappily, she looked at the bracelet, she had thought about it for a long time yet still couldn''t find the old Madame to give it to her, to give it to this bitch Xi Jiu Er, it was really too much. Last night, when she came back, her maidservant''s face had still not recovered from the swelling, and she was still unable to see anyone.


    The old Madame''s face sunk. Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said, "Grandmother, Jiu Er''s subordinate will do."


    "Hehe ¡­" is still the most obedient! " The old Madame chuckled and her expression relaxed. This Xi Jiu Er was more sensible than Xi Wan Rong, she felt gratified in her heart.


    "Grandmother, my granddaughter also has something to give to Grandmother ¡­" Xi Jiu Er took out a small box from his bosom. The box did not look refined in the slightest, causing Xi Wan Rong to snort in disdain, and said sarcastically, "Who is the Grandmother, to actually use such a thing to deceive an old man. Did you get it from the countryside?"


    Xi Jiu Er ignored her and only opened the box. Lying inside was a buddhist pearl bracelet, Old Madame''s eyes lit up, she knew about this area, more than anyone else. There were 108 beads on the bracelet and they were extremely small. She took it happily and looked at it. The scripture engraved on the small bead was extremely exquisite, and she immediately said happily: "Jiu Er understands me, the Grandmother likes this Buddhist chain a lot, a lot."


    "As long as Grandmother likes it." Xi Jiu Er smiled and glanced at Xi Wan Rong''s indignant gaze. She smiled the most, as if to say "Aren''t you Grandmother''s favorite granddaughter?" Look at the Grandmother''s current favorite is me! Xi Wan Rong immediately became enraged, and he stood up and said: "Grandmother, granddaughter has something to say."


    These words were definitely not good words. It was fine if he didn''t want to hear it. The old Madame''s expression became slightly cold, "Let''s talk about what we have to say after. I don''t want to hear it right now." He didn''t want to affect his mood.


    Xi Wan Rong''s face immediately turned red, staring at Xi Jiu Er for a moment before he sat down unwillingly. Xi Wan Feng saw that the two of them were quarreling again, so she naturally didn''t care. It was not like she didn''t know Xi Wan Rong''s temper, in case he got into trouble later on.


    "Grandmother, what did Sister Jiu Er give you to make you so happy? My granddaughter seems to be just an ordinary buddhist bead. " Xi Wan Feng was known as the first talented girl, there were many places where she had dabbled in, and she had naturally seen through the string of Buddha beads, but in order to curry favor with the old Madame, she had purposely not seen through them.


    "Do you know that there are 108 beads in the upper, 54 pearls in the middle, and 27 pearls in the lower. The meanings of each bead are different for you as well. These 108 beads represent 108 troubles ¡­" Xi Wan Feng listened attentively and nodded his head from time to time. Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that the old Madame was different from Xi Wan Feng in pampering Xi Wan Rong, and that this Xi Wan Feng seemed to be very happy with the old Madame and knew that she would give in.


    Sitting on the chair, Xi Wan Rong felt uncomfortable on both his left and right, as though he was sitting on pins and needles! Liu Xiang called Liu Xiang and took out the thing. Liu Xiang took out a small box from her bosom, the small box was extremely exquisite, it fit Xi Wan Rong''s taste, could it be that she was also a treasure? At least Xi Jiu Er, this little slut, was sensible.


    "Elder Sister Rong, this is a gift from Jiu Er." Xi Jiu Er was just about to give it to Xi Wan Rong, so she didn''t want Xi Wan Rong to snatch it away. When she opened it to see, it was only an ordinary mirror, but she immediately felt uncomfortable. Unhappily putting away the small copper mirror, she handed it over to Xi Jiu Er: "You should take this. Look at yourself in the mirror, hmph.


    "No!" Who wants that damn thing? Xi Wan Rong said indifferently, if not for the Old Madame by his side, he would probably ridicule Xi Jiu Er.


    The old Madame asked Xi Wan Rong to show him the item. The old Madame opened up a small copper mirror that was only the size of her palm, and though there was nothing special about it, it was still someone else''s idea, so she should not have done it.


    "Eh ¡­" "Behind the bronze mirror ¡­" Xi Wan Feng couldn''t help but shout out when he saw the dazzling light emitted by the copper mirror. The old Madame looked back and drank, and surprisingly, it was made from colored glass. The glass was worth more than the jade, you know.


    "Look at your eyes, you don''t even want such a good treasure." The old Madame could not help but berate Xi Wan Rong, who had short-sighted eyes. This made Xi Wan Rong extremely embarrassed, and his face flushed red! In her heart, she was starting to regret. If she played with those noble Miss s in the future, she would definitely be envious to death when she brought out the bronze mirror. But she had already returned it back, and now she was going to return it back?


    "Take it." How could the old Madame not know what she was thinking?


    "Thank you, Grandmother." Xi Wan Rong immediately received it with both hands, and looked at the copper mirror happily. His actions infuriated the old Madame. "Why are you thanking me, whoever gives you this thank you, don''t you see that?"


    After holding it in for a long time, just as Xi Jiu Er thought that she was about to suffocate to death, she finally said "Thank you". Xi Jiu Er smiled without hesitation: "It''s good that Elder Sister Rong likes it, there''s no need to thank me."


    Pui, why didn''t you say that just now? Xi Wan Rong''s face twisted, but looking at the small copper mirror in her hand, she could only endure.


    Everyone thought that Xi Jiu Er would give them the brush, ink, paper and paper, just like that! Xi Jiu Er got someone to bring the screen over: "Big Sister Feng, I heard that the poems embroidered on the screen are absolute, so I bought it for you. I hope you like it." Actually, it was because this item was cheap.


    The things she bought were obtained from everywhere, so she didn''t spend too much money. As long as she had eye poison, she would be able to find good treasures. The ex-sister-in-law in there has done a great service!


    Xi Wan Feng walked up to take a look. The screen did not listen to him and the embroidery was extremely good, looking like it had existed for a long time. She shifted her gaze to the poem, her red lips slightly parted. She did not expect Xi Jiu Er to find the next part of it, and she revealed a smile as well.

 C29

    Everyone liked Xi Jiu Er''s present, the old Madame thought that she indeed had a Seven Apertures Mystical Heart! After that, Xi Jiu Er found a recipe for First Lady. It said "Beauty Nourishment Effect", First Lady was afraid that Xi Jiu Er would secretly harm him, so she had to look for a few doctors to check it before she happily used it.


    Xi Hong Sheng was very satisfied and also gave her a hairpin as a gift. Third Wife also liked it a lot! Everyone who received the gift was very satisfied.


    This post was brought out right after noon in Princess Rongwang. Princess Rongwang''s carriage and the servants also came over, they were especially respectful towards Xi Jiu Er and said that she had specially invited Xi Jiu Er to visit their residence to seek forgiveness.


    The relationship that the Princess Rongwang owed the Princess Rongwang wasn''t one that belonged to them. Xi Hong Sheng and Elder Xi had hoped that they could put this favor there, if the family could help them find the Princess Rongwang again in the future, the Princess Rongwang would definitely not decline.


    Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang sat in the carriage of the Duke Rong Palace, the carriage was very comfortable and also very luxurious, the servant girl asked with a smile on her lips: "Has Ninth Miss been well?"


    "The days in the manor are good!" Xi Jiu Er laughed, in her memories, she seemed to be a servant of the Rong King''s Palace. She had given herself a good influence, knowing how to advance and retreat was comparable to the Miss s.


    Xi Jiu Er lifted the curtain and thought about her own matters. ex-sister-in-law had said that her mother would definitely have a dowry for her, but it was unknown whether or not this dowry was given to her, she only knew that she had rented out a few shops ¡­


    The scenery outside had already become a bustling bazaar. Xi Jiu Er put down the curtain and looked at her with a slight smile, then said: "Ninth Miss doesn''t like liveliness?"


    "Miss Lil ''Lips is truly intelligent. She probably likes the peace and quiet in the manor. I can''t believe she''s still not used to it." What a sharp insight, Xi Jiu Er saw that she had quite a good appearance, around the age of fifteen or sixteen, who knew who she would marry.


    When Duke Rong Palace arrived, he smiled and led Xi Jiu Er directly to Princess Rongwang, who was dressed very casually, and was not dressed very extravagantly. The headdress was only an ornament, and what caught people''s attention was her slightly bulging stomach. He actually showed it in the past three months?


    Seeing that Xi Jiu Er seemed to have seen her benefactor, the Princess Rongwang immediately stood up to welcome him. The old mother behind her immediately caught up to her footsteps and said, "Esteemed wangfei, you should be careful ¡­ "Be careful." Princess Rongwang protected her abdomen as she laughed: "Miss Jiu Er, quickly sit!"


    Xi Jiu Er bowed and was stopped by the Princess Rongwang, "You are my savior, you can''t be forgiven." The lips on the side immediately supported Xi Jiu Er and made her sit down! Princess Rongwang also carefully sat down with her stomach covered, waving her hand to order the rest of the people to wait.


    "It''s fine. Who would have expected such a problem?" Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, it seemed as though she did not take it to heart. This made Princess Rongwang not know what to say, she caressed her lower abdomen and laughed: "The doctor said that I am twin babies." Upon mentioning the sweet smile on her face, Xi Jiu Er was also a little surprised. "Hehe, it is indeed the blessing of the wangfei that you haven''t come. Look, send the wangfei right away with two children."


    "Hur hur." Princess Rongwang covered her mouth and laughed, she then had a servant serve Xi Jiu Er food, from time to time she would ask Xi Jiu Er about what had happened in the house, although it was courteous not to say anything, it was normal for there to be no outsiders. Xi Jiu Er said that she had bought a plot of land and grew medicinal herbs. There were also interesting things going on in the manor.


    Princess Rongwang smiled as she listened, with the sweet smile of a pregnant woman, echoing Xi Jiu Er''s words. At this moment, she suddenly clutched her stomach, her expression changing to one of shock. "¡­" Ah, my stomach... My stomach... "Child, child ¡­" Everything happened too suddenly, making it hard to guard against, the servants immediately supported Princess Rongwang back into the house, Xi Jiu Er anxiously followed behind.


    The Princess Rongwang held her stomach and began to yell out in pain, crying out, "My child, my child ¡­" The room was in a mess. SShe went to find a doctor, then a doctor, then a Master. He pinched the Princess Rongwang''s hand and said, "Esteemed wangfei, endure it. A doctor will arrive soon."


    "My child ¡­" In just a short span of time, Princess Rongwang was already drenched in sweat, her hands tightly held onto the child with a terrified expression. She passed through the servant and looked towards Xi Jiu Er, and at that moment, she really hoped that Xi Jiu Er could let her hold the child.


    "Jiu Er... Jiu Er... " Princess Rongwang stretched out her hands with trembling hands. The noble woman was currently begging with her eyes looking like a fish on the verge of death, but she was not willing to do so. But was that also the case? Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but feel sad. She stepped forward and held Princess Rongwang''s hand in his own.


    "Esteemed wangfei, don''t be afraid. Jiu Er won''t let anything happen to you ¡­" Xi Jiu Er seemed to be looking through the Princess Rongwang at her own mother. Her mother was said to be very beautiful, gentle and virtuous even a First Lady wouldn''t be able to compare to her!


    Hearing Xi Jiu Er''s words, the Princess Rongwang surprisingly calmed down, the pain in her stomach caused her to temporarily calm down, and she started to become nervous, and kept saying, "Jiu Er ¡­." Xi Jiu Er took out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom. "Princess, drink this."


    Just as he was about to stop them, Princess Rongwang revealed a reluctant smile, "Jiu Er, I''ll trust you this once more." After drinking it and gradually feeling better, the doctor had rushed over to check on the wangfei''s pulse and said, "Don''t worry wangfei, the child is fine."


    Hearing that, Princess Rongwang heaved a sigh of relief, she nearly fainted on the spot, and ordered the doctor to check if there was anything wrong with the food, holding Xi Jiu Er''s hand, her eyes were filled with venom: "Jiu Er, someone tried to harm me and my child."


    This was not strange at all. As long as there was a woman, there would always be fights. It didn''t matter if the two had a grudge or not. As long as the man was involved, the etiquette would treat him as an enemy.


    Xi Jiu Er could not interfere with the Duke Rong''s family matters. She could only stay by her side and say, "Princess, as long as the child is fine." She suddenly thought, if her mother was still alive, would her mother also become like him? No, it won''t be like that. First Lady is selfish and mean, she would never be like that.


    "Thank you, Jiu Er. You saved me twice." Princess Rongwang squeezed Xi Jiu Er''s hands, her eyes filled with gratitude. After drinking the water, she no longer felt pain in her stomach, if she continued to pain like this, she would have lost it long ago.


    "Lip, bring the thing over." Princess Rongwang instructed him to kiss her, and then brought a box over with him. Princess Concubine said: "I am a normal person, I don''t know what kind of item you are, so I gave you some headdress jewelry, don''t mind it."


    "Jiu Er cannot accept this gift." Xi Jiu Er quickly declined.


    Princess Rongwang said: "The last time was my fault for making you go back to the manor. I don''t even have to think about it to know that it was hard work for the manor.


    "Jiu Er thanks the wangfei." Xi Jiu Er asked the servant Liu Xiang to take the box.


    "I originally wanted to keep you here, but I''m not in the mood for this. I''ll get someone to send you back. When I''m free, I''ll invite you over for a chat." Princess Rongwang couldn''t help but want to find out which bastard was tired of living and dared to target her child.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that she was impatient to take care of them, so she said a few words to take good care of them before he left with the servant! There were only two people in the carriage, Liu Xiang weighed the boxes heavily, thus she thought about opening them to take a look.


    "Open it and take a look." Seeing that Liu Xiang''s eyes were about to spew fire, Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    could not wait to open it and take a look, he immediately felt dizzy. Indeed, everything inside had been tidied up, and not only was he amazed at how generous Princess Rongwang was, he was even willing to take out such a good item, but then he thought about it, what was he curious about, she was the consort, why would she not throw his face when giving away those poor quality things?


    When Xi Jiu Er came back, it was already evening, but after sshe finished eating dinner, Xi Jiu Er bumped into Xi Wan Rong who was in the middle of eating dinner. When the other party saw that Xi Jiu Er had returned so early, he could not help but mock him, "Ninth Sister, why are you back so early?


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t bother to look at her and only lightly said: "Wangfei sent me back when she wasn''t feeling well."


    "Oh, you''re really a jinx ¡­" Just as Xi Wan Rong wanted to say something, he saw Xi Jiu Er glaring at him, as though as long as she continued to speak, she would definitely not have a good ending. However, she stubbornly said: "What are you staring at? I''m your sister, is there anyone who treats their sister like this ¡­" "Eh, what is this?"


    The moment Liu Xiang heard "jinx", she became angry. It was clear that she looked down on Miss and said somewhat complacently, "This is the Headwear that wangfei gifted to Miss ¡­" As she said that, she even opened the chest and looked at Xi Wan Rong. Xi Wan Rong was immediately blinded, and angrily snorted as he flung his sleeves and left. This slut''s luck was too good.

 C30

    wanted to cut open the fog to search for her way, but the fog that shrouded her was too thick for her to move. Suddenly, she heard a sound. It sounded like a woman''s voice. Just that light ''hmm'' was enough to shock her. It was also with this sound that the fog opened up ¡­ She seemed to be in a room with simple furnishings, but nothing was ordinary.


    There was a woman lying on the bed, a woman similar to her on the seventh floor! The woman was around twenty years old or so, and she was extremely beautiful, like a fairy that had walked out of a painting. Her face was currently deathly pale, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly ¡­ With a oval face and curved eyebrows, small nose and cherry mouth, he exuded an otherworldly aura. Xi Jiu Er stared at her in a daze: "My mother, Wei Xi Er!"


    ''Wu '', after an unknown period of time, Wei Xi Er felt as if her entire body had been crushed, she opened her eyes and released a painful groan. Smoke curled out from the incense burner on the table, bringing out a faint fragrance.


    "So painful ¡­" "So painful ¡­" Wei Xi Er suddenly held her head and curled up into a ball. In a short period of time, Wei Xi Er seemed to have drained all of her energy and put down her hand, and stared blankly at the picture of a mandarin duck embroidered on the top of the bed.


    "Young Mistress ¡­" Young Master is here. " A maid stumbled in and was kicked to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.


    "Scram, you dog slave!" This was the husband that he had been completely convinced of? Heh, he looks like an elegant gentleman, but he''s actually a person who dotes on his concubines and destroys his wives. He has a perverted and conceited personality, and he''s so lecherous and petty.


    Seeing that Wei Xi had revealed such an expression, Xi Jiu Er knew that Xi Hong Sheng had definitely broken mother''s heart ¡­ Looking at Xi Hong Sheng, he looked to be very young, elegant and refined, extremely attractive to women. It was understandable that the mother who was trying to attract him with her outer appearance could do so!


    However, at this moment, Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes were filled with disgust: "You slut, don''t you know that Jun Qing has flesh and blood? You actually let her drink the soup, I really can''t see that you''re so vicious! Don''t you want to give birth to a child and not let anyone else give it to me? "


    Because Wei Xi Er was the direct descendant of the Xi Family, she was nurtured and nurtured by the Mo family since she was young. Her personality was inevitably a bit more arrogant, and she never took the initiative to curry favor with others, so naturally there were people who came to curry favor with him. How could it be as pleasing to the heart as Wang Jun Qing''s? In just a few short months, Wei Xi Er had become a target that everyone wanted to exclude.


    Yesterday, when Wei Xi Er went to visit Wang Jun Qing, he was only carrying the bowl of her Silver Ear Congee, how did it become a soup? She didn''t need to guess to know that someone was framing him ¡­ Men are always like this! Sometimes, it was even more unreasonable than a woman to cause trouble. A woman''s sweet words would make it difficult to tell if the matter was real or fake. She would lose the ability to differentiate between the two.


    Wei Xi Er gave a cold laugh, "I didn''t even know she was pregnant, how could I possibly let her off scot-free?" Xi Hong Sheng did not see the despair that gradually solidified in her eyes. mother must be having a hard time ¡­ Wang Jun Qing, this slut!


    Xi Hong Sheng had never seen such an overbearing and forceful Wei Xi Er, the gentle and graceful woman seemed to have no shadow at all. It was just as Jun Qing had said, this woman was a venomous woman whose reputation was inferior to his! They were all putting on an act for the others to see! "Hmph, as for the reason, you must be jealous of my love for her. So, you wanted to frame her and the child in her womb."


    Wei Xi Er laughed sarcastically, he was thinking too highly of herself. If it was in the past, she might be able to, but now, she was too lazy to care about him.


    "Wei Xi Er, I really did not expect you to be so venomous, the child that Jun Qing was carrying was my flesh and blood, you actually dare to be so heartless, you hypocritical woman." Xi Hong Sheng was so disgusted that he ate something dirty. He regretted marrying Wei Xi Er back home, unless she was beautiful and looked like a wooden person. She did not have the gentleness and gentleness of a woman!


    Jun Qing, the woman he truly loved, was not only beautiful but also gentle, considerate and intelligent. She had always been obedient to him, and in that aspect, she was even more like a spirit that made him feel intoxicated.


    "Do you believe what others say?" Wei Xi Er frowned, instigating Xi Hong Sheng to feel disgust towards her, her thoughts became clear to everyone.


    "Believe? How do you expect me to believe that? Could there be a fake one as well? I had originally thought that as long as you knew your wrongs and got along well with Jun Qing, then even though you didn''t treat her as your sister, he would treat you as his own sister. Now that you have no intentions of repenting, come, lock up my Young Mistress in the Purple Bamboo House, and release her whenever you can. " Xi Hong Sheng said angrily, hoping that Wei Xi Er could understand that Jun Qing was his concubine. Both of them should get along well, so he wouldn''t have to be stuck between the two of them, "Young Master, Young Master, you wronged Young Mistress, she didn''t hurt you ~ Young Master!" When Wei Xi Er''s personal servant heard that she wanted to lock her master in the Purple Bamboo House, she immediately rushed over to plead for mercy. The Purple Bamboo House is a ruin of the Xi Family, master has been spoiled since she was young, how can her body continue to withstand this?


    "Scram, lowly servant!" kicked the maid away and cursed fiercely. A few big and tall wives came over, Wei Xi Er shouted: "Impudent, I am Xi Family''s eldest young mistress, if you dare touch me, I will punish you with the crime of deceiving the master."


    Wei Xi Er''s sudden outburst of aura surprised everyone in the room. Was this still that gentle woman? How did it suddenly become so powerful? Xi Hong Sheng was furious and angry at the same time, pointing at Wei Xi Er with a trembling finger.


    Wei Xi Er slowly stood up, and spoke with a domineering tone: "What, my dear husband, am I wrong? I am the grand young mistress of the Xi Family, the daughter of the Wei Guogong. I don''t even have the authority to punish a few wives? Don''t you recognize me? "Then you can write a letter of departure and divorce me."


    Of course, Xi Hong Sheng would not let the Xi Family get involved with the Wei Family.


    Wei Xi Er snorted, her eyes filled with disdain!


    Purple Bamboo House? The place that could be located in the most distant part of Xi Family was a wasteland that had been abandoned for a long time. The lords who made mistakes would usually go there to meditate. As Xi Jiu Er followed beside mother, other than the pity she felt for him in her heart, there was nothing else she felt for him.


    "mother!" Seeing that Wei Xi Er was about to roll down, Xi Jiu Er reminded him. The wind was still blowing, but there was nothing in it!


    "Ugh!" A moment of carelessness allowed her to tumble down the stairs miserably. With Wei Xi Er''s fall, she woke up completely, and woodenly shook her head and did not say anything. Who would care about him in this world? From today onwards, she was the only one who would struggle in this world!


    As he thought of this, he began to cry! "His body moved, and a heart-wrenching pain came from his ankle. He must have twisted his leg when he fell!" "Hiss ¡ª ¡ª" Wei Xi Er pretended that Song Han Ruo didn''t exist and tried to stand up on his own, but to no avail.


    After a while, a tall and handsome man walked out from the bushes. Xi Jiu Er glared: Third Wife''s brother Song Hanruo! Why was he here? Furthermore, his eyes seemed to be hiding something, as Xi Jiu Er had some memories of this man in his previous life. He had been to the house a few times, but every time, he would bring something good to.


    "Young mistress, sorry for offending you." Song Han Ruo crouched down and held the injured jade foot in his palm. His jade foot seemed to be so white that it seemed to be filled with hot twists and turns, and he didn''t know what method he used. Wei Xi Er didn''t feel any pain, so she put the foot away, and said: "Young Mistress, it''s done."


    They say that they were born in a home that they don''t know of, and outsiders could see it clearly. That''s right, there would definitely be many men who would like women like mother. Sigh, who asked mother to take a liking to that lowly man, Xi Hong Sheng?


    Wei Xi Er ''yea'' thank you for raising his head to the sky, the bright moon hung in the middle of the night, and it was extremely bright and beautiful, if not for the timing and location, it would have been a great chance to admire the moon. The stars were all over the sky, so he guessed that tomorrow would be a good day to clear out ten thousand miles ¡­


    In the darkness of the night, her frail body seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and her back was ramrod straight, causing those who looked on to feel pity for her, but also admiration. Song Han Ruo held a lantern in his hand as he walked towards the back. The further he went in the direction of the Purple Bamboo House, the more remote he became. There were very few servants in Purple Bamboo House cleaning the place, the weeds were already very tall, a strong smell of soil came over, bringing with it a musty smell.


    Creak ¡ª ¡ª The broken wooden door made a sound that sounded as if it was ancient times, and in the dead of night, the silence sounded like it was no different from a ghost''s. Wei Xi Er took the lantern from his hand, and the surrounding weeds had already grown to her waist.


    "I-I''m going back." As Song Han Ruo spoke, he glanced at him indifferently before turning around and leaving.


    Wei Xi Er''s body of desolate white shadow was like a ghost in the empty Purple Bamboo House. Purple Bamboo House could not be considered as a courtyard anymore, it was incomplete, and the interior of the house could not be seen for decoration, the flickering light of the lantern seemed to be extinguished. She had experienced too much tonight. Her body and mind were exhausted, and now she felt as if her throat was burning. Her body was burning hot. She guessed that the cold wind must have cooled her body in the night.

    After randomly finding a pile of straw, Wei Xi Er blew out the candle flame and then miserably curled up in the pile of straw. Her consciousness gradually blurred before finally falling into her dream. Song Han Ruo''s tall and big body neared, he had not left even once, and only when there was no movement from inside did he come over to take a look. It was like the moonlight outside the broken window and his small face under his black hair was extremely pale, with a sickly bright red colour.


    He really did have a fever. Under such circumstances where no one was looking after him, it would be difficult for him to survive. Song Han Ruo took out a fire piston and found a pile of useless grass and some dried wood from the other side, raising a fire at a distance of around one meter away from the woman. Whether or not she could survive would depend on her luck, so Song Han Ruo placed all of his silver taels quietly beside her, leaving behind the fire piston and left.


    The servants had all left, leaving behind Xi Hong Sheng who was anxiously waiting for the beauty to wake up and the woman who was resting on the soft couch, "Jun Qing!" Xi Hong Sheng was so worried that Jun Yan, seeing that the beauty had woken up, immediately became surprised: "You''re awake?"


    Wang Jun Qing opened his eyes slightly in a daze, but after he clearly saw the person in front of him, his expression changed, as he said with extreme sorrow: "Young Master, Young Master, it was Jun Qing''s fault. Jun Qing did not take good care of our child, our child nearly ¡­ "Almost ¡­"


    The delicate woman''s tears flowed out instantly. Xi Hong Sheng wiped away her tears and said with grief that could not be hidden: "Jun Qing, I already know about this. I thought you and the child are seeking justice. Wei Xi Er, this slut, I have already let her go to the Purple Bamboo House to reflect on her mistake. She is a Young Mistress after all, she cannot go overboard ¡­ "


    Xi Hong Sheng pulled her into his embrace and rebuked her, "This slut hurt you so much, and you still spoke up for her? "You don''t need to explain, and you don''t need to cover up for her. Your servant will tell me everything, and don''t say anything more, what you need to do now is to properly take care of your body and give birth to a healthy son for me. Once you have a great grandson in your eldest son''s arms, he will promise to take you in as a wife once he''s happy ¡­"


    Xi Hong Sheng''s face slightly changed, no longer being as gentle as before: "Don''t mention that slut, saying how good she is to me, and how much she has to pay me, am I not good to her? If not for my identity as a direct daughter, how would I give up on Jun Qing to marry that bitch? " Thinking about what Wei Xi Er had done, Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes revealed a look of disgust.


    "Alright, Jun Qing will not mention it, Young Master is not going to get angry, if your anger breaks, how can Jun Qing take responsibility!" Wang Jun Qing cuddled up obediently in Xi Hong Sheng''s embrace, and said softly, "After so many years, we are finally together." The almond yellow candle flame made her gentle face extremely strange. Wang Jun Qing laughed coldly in his heart, after all these years, she had finally achieved his wish!


    Wei Xi Er, how amazing do you think you are the direct descendant? Do you think it is glorious to be doted upon? I took your place today, your husband! You didn''t think that, right? Xi Hong Sheng and I have long known each other, hahahaha ¡­ I''ve been planning for this day for a long time!


    Seeing this scene, Xi Jiu Er''s eyes burned with passion! Seeing the proud smile on First Lady''s face, she knew without thinking that she must have used some tricks! She patiently watched on, unable to change the things that had already happened!


    Xi Hong Sheng went to look at Madame. Before he left, he did not care about the presence of others at all and gently bent down to kiss Wang Jun Qing''s jade like forehead. Since she was pregnant, it was naturally not convenient for him to stay with her.


    Wang Jun Qing''s slightly weak smile was just enough to show that he was a girl. With a frown, his eyes sparkled. This kind of woman''s appearance and personality was many times better than Wei Xi Er''s. Xi Hong Sheng looked at her deeply, then turned and left. Wang Jun Qing, who was behind her, forced out a smile: "We send you off, Young Master."


    As the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, the servants of the Clearing Warm Pavilion all kneeled down and said in a low voice, "Congratulations, Young Mistress. Congratulations, Young Mistress."


    Wang Jun Qing''s face froze for a moment, and then he berated: "Don''t speak nonsense!"


    The servant boy with a small nose and small eyes revealed a cunning and flattering smile, "Now that I have gone to Purple Bamboo House, I have to bear the cold treatment! And Young Mistress, now that you are doted upon by the Young Master, in the future, the position of Xi Family''s Young Mistress will not be yours. " After a pause, he said in a loud voice, "Congratulations, young mistress. Congratulations, young mistress."


    As the other servants cheered, they said loudly, "Congratulations, young mistress. Congratulations, young mistress."


    "What virtue or ability do I have to be the Young Mistress?" Elder sister is the best choice. " Wang Jun Qing''s beautiful face did not reveal any hint of happiness as she sighed while frowning.


    "Miss, you are really kind and compassionate. She already hurt you this much and you still helped her speak up. Even Servant has to cry for you." Wang Jun Qing''s mother, Wang Ma, said indignantly: "Servant watched as well, there is a huge gap between his and you, how can you compare, am I right?"


    Wang Ma was still very young, and had a few traces of beauty.


    The servants had long known that things were different now, Xi Hong Sheng obviously had a plan to make her his wife. When Wang Ma asked the servants who were kneeling, they immediately agreed. Wei Xi Er had already become a part of the past, and wanting to turn things around was even more difficult.


    "Forget it, I''m tired. All of you can leave now." Wang Jun Qing did not seem to take their words to heart, his expression was tired, and immediately said: "Didn''t Young Master say that First Young Mistress should take good care of her body, and help her recuperate to give birth to an eldest son?! This servant will be leaving now. Young Mistress should rest early. "


    By the time everyone had left, Wang Jun Qing''s'' exhaustion ''had already disappeared and was replaced with the joy of revenge. He felt like a completely different person compared to the gentle and gentle girl from before, Wang Ma seemed to be used to it.


    Wang Jun Qing caressed his face as he smelled something sinister: "Hurry up and get some water for me to wash this thing off. What if it hurts my skin?" His fingertips were covered with a fine white powder. This white powder could be applied to one''s skin, causing it to appear pale and sickly. However, these seven people didn''t smell very good.


    The Wang Ma hurriedly said, "Miss can''t do that, when Young Master comes again, he will be suspicious."


    Thinking about Xi Hong Sheng''s suspicious personality, she coldly snorted and endured the white powder that stung her face. She prayed that there was no problem or her peerless beauty would be ruined. One had to know, how could there be a woman that didn''t care about one''s appearance? Didn''t Xi Hong Sheng value her face? Then she must cherish it even more.


    Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Wang Ma started to change the topic and asked softly: "Miss, what do you plan to do next?"


    She was not satisfied with Wei Xi Er''s outcome at all. She still needed more time, but just wait and see, who would be the victor in the future. Did she really think that Xi Hong Sheng would like her? Only an extremely stupid woman would do such a thing to herself and sacrifice everything for a man.


    Wang Jun Qing''s heartlessness and feelings towards his made Wang Jun Qing feel even more proud. This only proved that Xi Hong Sheng truly loved his, and she was naturally extremely happy.


    "How? Don''t think that I will let this slut off just because I''m at Purple Bamboo House. Slut ¡­ "After so many years, I will always vent my anger!" Thinking about how he had been ridiculed and rolled his eyes all these years, Wang Jun Qing became angrier and angrier. It was all Wei Xi Er''s fault! Hmph, letting her stay in Purple Bamboo House so safely? How is this possible?


    "I''m a good sister, so of course I care about this sister ¡­" Tomorrow, you can tell the servants to serve all the good food and good food, and still treat her like a young mistress. " Wang Jun Qing laughed coldly, "I need to be called Virtue to be worthy of being the Young Mistress, don''t you think so?"


    Wang Ma laughed: "Good plan Miss."


    "When the time comes, I can bribe any of the guards ¡­" Wang Jun Qing pursed his lips and laughed, he was extremely alluring, but unfortunately, his eyes were like a venomous snake that released a bloodthirsty aura, scaring Wang Ma to the point that his entire body started to tremble. Xi Jiu Er looked as though he wanted to viciously kick her a few times in the head. He suddenly thought of the Old Madame, did he not care about anything?


    The time which the servants of the Purple Bamboo House had brought him food was getting later and later, hence his terrible attitude had already worsened. It was for this that Wei Xi Er endured the humiliation and swallowed his food. She seemed to have been forgotten in this simple and crude courtyard, and no one seemed to care about her.


    Wei Madame did not think that Wei Xi Er would like to flatter and curry favor with the spoiled Wang Jun Qing, she was naturally enemies with Wei Xi Er, and hoped that she would stay in Purple Bamboo House for as long as possible. Wei Madame did not ask about the things in the backyard, and could only count on Old Madame. She had to think of a way to let the old Madame know that the old Madame did not ask about anything in the buddhist hall, but had an unshakable position in the Xi Family. If she wanted to leave, she could only find the old Madame.


    If she wanted to see the old Madame, she would have to rely on this servant who brought her food ¡­

 C32

    Today, without saying a word, the servant threw the lunchbox over, and without even looking at Wei Xi Er, angrily sat at the side and sulked, as if she had suffered some grievance at someone else''s place. Wei Xi Er asked while eating: "What happened?"


    The maidservant sneered, "Eat your food, you talk so much nonsense."


    As expected, Wei Xi Er did not speak, she knew that whatever thoughts the girl had were only about her being bullied by others, they were all about her being unsightly to her, and what was the point of disturbing her with whatever work she had done today, using this information, she knew that the maidservants were working in the Pure Warm Pavilion, but she did not mention anything about it at all. From the looks of it, she was just an unremarkable maidservant from Wang Jun Qing.


    The servant girl opened her mouth and let out a final sigh. She could not help but say, "My brother needs money to get married, but I don''t have any. What should I do?"


    After Wei Xi Er gulped down the food, she wiped her mouth and said, "I have some silver in my room."


    The servant was startled, then Wei Xi Er said with an alluring tone of voice: "I know where my silver is, go in and steal it without leaving a trace, take it out yourself for emergency use." She had her own plans for what she was doing. She did not think that these words would cause the servant girl''s face to turn ashen, "Are you crazy? If I find out, I''ll be beaten to death."


    "We won''t be discovered. I know of a shortcut that allows us to enter without leaving a trace!" Wei Xi Er said indifferently: "Coming to this little half a month, you''ve been pretty good to me, consider this your thanks."


    When she said this, the maidservant didn''t know what to say. This Young Mistress was indeed a fool. Didn''t she know that Aunt Xi had sent her to monitor him? Not bad for her? She felt a little embarrassed at the thought of her attitude.


    "I told you to steal my own money, what are you afraid of? Don''t you want to think about your brother? " Wei Xi Er continued to lobby ¡­ This maid had only just entered the manor for a short period of time. She believed that he would be able to convince his.


    When the maidservant thought of his younger brother and the urgent need for money at home, she didn''t manage to save much ¡­ "Is there really a shortcut?"


    Wei Xi Er saw that she was already tempted and knew that she must have taken the bait. "Of course there is. Who will send me food in the future? Maybe Wang Jun Qing will send someone else to bring me food. " The maidservant thought that it was true and changed from his usual mocking and ridicule to an eager fawning, "Then tell me, where is the shortcut and where is your silver?"


    "Come here, I''ll tell you."


    On the second day, the servant came earlier than usual by two hours, and opened the box in front of Wei Xi Er. Looking at her attitude towards him, Wei Xi Er knew that she must have found out last night, maybe her harvest was already shallow. As Wei Xi Er ate, the servant said softly: "I followed your route and indeed found a place to store the silver. A full three hundred silver! This is enough for my little brother to marry ten wives. "


    The attitude the servant had towards Wei Xi Er had completely changed, she was fawning and flattering him, her words were filled with probing, the three hundred silver that had fallen from the sky was no longer enough to satisfy her desire for a pie, she hoped to get even more from Wei Xi Er! Wei Xi Er had always been attended to by Ling''er, and upon arriving at Purple Bamboo House, Ling''er found an excuse to leave, causing the people in the courtyard to be sent away. As such, the people in the courtyard all seemed to have become lax, allowing to take advantage of her.


    She didn''t dare to touch anything valuable. She just wanted to know what else she could take.


    Towards the servant girl''s 180 degree change in attitude, Wei Xi Er remained calm and collected. The servant girl also anxiously threatened: "If you don''t tell me, I will never send you food again, pour it out for you." But this time, Wei Xi Er did not speak, his expression did not change at all when facing her threat, and did not pay any attention to her.


    Although she didn''t know what Wang Jun Qing''s goal was, but she was sure that it was him. She might be able to get some words out of the servant girl, and then she would send the servant to look for the old Madame!


    slanted her eyebrows, revealing a charming smile, and said with a displeased tone: "Young Master only makes fun of Jun Qing, could it be that the Wang Jun Qing of normal days isn''t beautiful?"


    "Normally, Wang Jun Qing would be extremely beautiful, probably becaushee wanted to become my wife. When he wears this phoenix coronet and gown, she will become the most beautiful woman in the world." Xi Hong Sheng enjoyed the breathtaking look in her eyes. Seeing how this man had become a docile sheep in front of her, how could she not be proud?


    "Young Master only knows how to make Jun Qing happy!" Wang Jun Qing laughed happily.


    The two of them stayed silent for a while, before Xi Hong Sheng asked with a gloomy face: "Purple Bamboo House was the food you asked someone to send over? I won''t allow it in the future, there are people from Purple Bamboo House arranging this kind of work, what are you meddling in? "


    "Elder sister is in a very pitiful situation right now, Jun Qing wants to ¡­" Wang Jun Qing did not finish speaking as he ridiculed, "Pitiful person? This is all her own fault, it has nothing to do with anyone. Jun Qing, don''t blame yourself, this isn''t your fault. "What you need to do now is to think of a way to give me a son. You don''t need to worry about other things."


    Wang Jun Qing still wanted to say something, but Xi Hong Sheng pretended to glare at her. Only then did she nod his head with a face full of helplessness: "Alright!"


    "You are just too kind!" That slut left her to fend for herself. " Xi Hong Sheng hugged her and kissed her forehead. He said those cold and cruel words emotionlessly, as if he was a woman who had never been married with her before.


    Wei Xi Er would never be able to be compared with Wang Jun Qing.


    In Purple Bamboo House, in this short span of half a month, she had immediately lost a large amount of weight. His body was much thinner than before, it was as if a gust of wind could sweep her away. However, her eyes were brimming with energy and vitality. He did not cower in the face of such a predicament. Instead, she looked alive and well.


    Today, she was feeling nervous. She did not know if the servant girl did as she said and went to look for the old Madame, but if she did, why did she not make any movements? Could it be a failure?


    "Creak ¡ª ¡ª" The wooden door let out an ear-piercing sound, and the maid''s expression as he carried the food box was different from usual. He sighed and handed the food box over to him, "I was stopped on my way to find Old Madame, I can''t even enter the courtyard ¡­ "I ¡­"


    Wei Xi Er''s heart sank, and she let out a faint "En". The servant girl felt a little uncomfortable, and felt a little guilty. Seeing that she was still wolfing down her food, she seemed to be struggling to speak. In the past few days, she had gained a lot of benefits from Wei Xi Er ¡­ If she did not say anything, she would not be able to justify her actions.


    "Someone wants to harm you!" Finally, the servant girl mustered up her courage and said word by word, "I eavesdropped on them discussing how to drug you and then catch you ¡­" "I didn''t hear you clearly. In short, you''re treating me as you ¡­" After saying so, she hurriedly packed her food box and left. She had done her best.


    "Wang Ma, Wang Ma, don''t, don''t ¡­" The maidservants were so frightened that they continuously begged for mercy. The two attendants dragged the struggling maidservants to an ancient well, and after a great deal of effort, they finally managed to throw the struggling maidservants into the well.


    Right now, the Qing Wen Pavilion was already Xi Hong Sheng''s resting place. As he was sleeping soundly, he could hear the urgent report from the people outside.


    "What is it?" Can''t I just sleep for a while? Is the sky going to collapse? " was woken up by his shout, he then softly said: "Something big must have happened, please calm down Young Master, let us go and take a look." Then, she whispered into Xi Hong Sheng''s ears: "At night, Jun Qing will ''serve'' Young Master well."


    The breath that came from her mouth was like orchids, with a voice that teased her heartstrings, calming Xi Hong Sheng''s anger down gradually. He turned his head and kissed the beautiful woman''s shiny lips, causing the girl in his arms to pant, and was unable to hold on for a moment. Fortunately, Wang Jun Qing stopped her in time. "Young Master, it''s better to deal with it first."


    Xi Hong Sheng also knew that this was not the time to be coveting beauty. He put on his robe and walked out, and after a while, the Wang Ma came in and helped Wang Jun Qing put on his outer robe, and said in a low voice: "Things have already been arranged."


    Wang Jun Qing nodded with satisfaction and laughed, only then did he walk out of the room and heard Xi Hong Sheng''s furious voice: "That slut actually dares to guard an affair? "Slut, slut ¡­" The sound of porcelain breaking rang out. Wang Jun Qing revealed a pleased expression, and in the next moment, he ran out with a face full of shock: "What, big sister had an affair with a guard? "Impossible, big sister would not do such a shameless thing."


    "Shut up!" Xi Hong Sheng shouted, "How can that lowly woman be your big sister! He had the appearance of a high and mighty direct descendant of the Miss, with the appearance of a great Miss. Deep down, he was showing off his status, and not long after he had gone to the Purple Bamboo House, he had actually dared to seduce a man to have an affair, good, good, very good! "Go, kill this dog-couple, kill them!"


    Wang Jun Qing shot forward and knelt in front of Xi Hong Sheng. Even the furious Xi Hong Sheng was stunned for a moment: "Jun Qing, what are you doing? "Could it be that he''s begging for mercy on behalf of this slut?"


    "Young Master, Wang Jun Qing and big sister have served Young Master together for so many years, I beg Young Master to let us go on account of how thin Jun Qing is, Jun Qing begs you!" Dong dong dong dong ¡­ The sound of something hitting the ground could be heard, but he still couldn''t stop himself from saying, "I beg of you, I beg of you!" She made all the servants feel that this girl was truly gentle and kind! They had already thought that Wei Xi Er was a dissolute person. Now that he was in the Purple Bamboo House, he was actually doing such a shameless thing.


    Wang Jun Qing, hearing Xi Hong Sheng''s words meant that he had already tolerated a step, and immediately cried tears of joy: "Thank you Young Master, thank you Young Master!" stared at Wang Jun Qing in anger, his face was filled with regret and disappointment, but he did not have the heart to scold the beauty in his heart: "You actually have such a good heart, this slut actually dares to plead for her! What do you want me to say about you? "


    "When Jun Qing marries in, he will be treated as a big sister!" Wang Jun Qing revealed a pitiful smile, causing Xi Hong Sheng''s heart to ache slightly. "No matter what you say, we''re all sisters!"


    "Is she worthy of being your sister? Shameless woman! Let me ask you, who was the person she had an affair with! I will personally deal with him. " Xi Hong Sheng asked angrily, this man was truly bold and daring, his woman actually dared to touch her own hands, she didn''t want to live anymore. The servant then replied hesitantly, "If we were to return to the Young Master, the person who had an affair with Young Mistress is... It''s Song Han Ruo. "


    Song Han Ruo? Xi Hong Sheng''s expression became strange, and asked with a face full of suspicion: "Are you sure it''s Song Han Ruo?"


    "It''s Song Han Ruo."


    Wang Jun Qing walked over and asked softly, "Young Master, what''s wrong? Why don''t you believe that it''s Song Han Ruo? " The reason why she chose Song Han Ruo was because this man never once looked at her. Not only did he distance himself from her, he made her extremely unhappy.


    "He''s been injured ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng went close to her ear and whispered: "If that aspect of him is bad, then it can''t be any better."


    What? This actually happened? Wang Jun Qing felt that the heavens had played a big joke on him, that if he succeeded in this matter, he would be sent back to the Mo Clan, waiting for her fate could be imagined. Not only would he get scolded by the world, he would also stay in the nunnery for the rest of his life. It looked like he was about to pull the thorn in his side, but he didn''t expect it to turn out like this.


    "Is that so? That''s great, Young Master, look, I already said that elder sister is not someone who doesn''t know how to be shameless ¡­ " Wang Jun Qing''s face changed several times in an instant and he had already thought of a move. Hmph, if this plan failed to produce a new one, then the current Wei Xi Er was already not afraid of anything. A simple trick would ruin her reputation. This time, she was lucky enough to escape this calamity. Next time, she wouldn''t be so lucky.

 C33

    "Young Master!" Another servant boy ran over and said respectfully: "Young Master, Song Han Ruo had this one tell young mistress that she is already pregnant, and it seems like she has activated her Fetal Qi and brought her back to Serenity Academy."


    Regardless of whether it was Xi Hong Sheng or Wang Jun Qing, both of them were shocked by this news, especially Wang Jun Qing who only felt that his vision had turned black and he was about to faint. Pregnant? This news was like thunder in a clear sky to her. Wei Xi Er, this slut, was actually pregnant? How could that be? She had always given her a small amount of soup, but it had already been secretly served before the Mo Residence, so it was impossible for her to get pregnant.


    "How did Song Han Ruo know that Wei Xi Er is pregnant?" In a moment of desperation, he had actually blurted out the word ''Wei Xi Er''. Luckily, everyone''s attention had already shifted to the matter of ''Wei Xi Er getting pregnant'', and they did not pay attention. She couldn''t help but heave a sigh of relief. The image she had maintained for so many years couldn''t be ruined at this moment.


    "Song Han Ruo knows some yellow art." Xi Hong Sheng was already not as eager as he was before for the arrival of this child. He really came at this time and he even planned to make use of this opportunity to make Wang Jun Qing a wife! At this time, he no longer had any good feelings for Wei Xi Er ¡­


    "Young Master, Madame wants you to go over." The servant girl from Madame''s courtyard called Xi Hong Sheng over. As for why, there was no need to guess.


    After Xi Hong Sheng left, Wang Ma dismissed the servants in the house, turned and looked at Wang Jun Qing who was sitting at the side with a gloomy face, gritting her teeth with a sneer: "Wei Xi Er has good luck but you are pregnant, but let us wait and see, child ¡­. If you are pregnant, you will not be able to save your life... Even if she was born, he might not necessarily be a son ¡­ So what if she was a son? She might not be able to live such a life! Wei Xi Er, if you want to fight me, it''s still too early. "


    "Wang Ma, prepare more to bring my foetal antidote with you. I would like to take a look when my sister is pregnant, only then can you show my brotherly affection towards her!" With that, Wang Jun Qing slowly got up. His expression was as though he had truly gone to see his own sister, and no one could see any flaws in him.


    Purple Bamboo House! Wei Xi Er rubbed her stomach in a daze. She was actually pregnant! However, Xi Jiu Er was stunned. She felt very strange. She was looking at herself! Suddenly, she became suspicious. At this time, the one in First Lady''s embrace should be Xi Wan Rong, right ¡­ However, he felt that the month was wrong.


    Xi Jiu Er felt sorrow in her heart: "mother loves me, loves me ¡­ Woo woo ¡­ * mother... " If the mother was still alive, he would definitely be very, very happy!


    "Madame, this is great, Servant has already sent news over, who knows how happy he will be when he hears it. "Thank goodness ¡­" The servant had already been sent back. When he heard that Wei Xi Er was even happier than he was when he was pregnant, her face was so excited that it was extremely cute. The ''Master'' that she mentioned was the ''Wei Guogong''.


    "Elder sister, elder sister?" Before the gentle and concerned voice could reach her, an extremely beautiful and graceful woman entered the door with a smile on her face. It had to be said that Wang Jun Qing was an extremely beautiful woman with a beauty that couldn''t be restrained by the wind, like a woman who had stepped over a wave in a southern river.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at the murderer of her mother, her eyes full of resentment. One day I will have my life for my own.


    "Big sister, I heard you''re pregnant. Congratulations!" Wang Jun Qing''s face was filled with joy and laughter, as if he was truly happy for her. The trace of hatred and scheming in her eyes just happened to let Wei Xi Er see this, Wang Jun Qing really wanted him to die, to the point of scheming a secret relationship with someone else, and then she would lose her reputation.


    "Elder sister ¡­" What''s the matter with you? " Wang Jun Qing gently called out, as if she had this kind of personality all the time.


    "Today, Little Sister Jun Qing came to see me. I feel really touched, as the saying goes, it''s good that you see the truth, it''s true that you care for your sister wholeheartedly. Those women who say that your sister is a hypocrite are all slapping your face in front of others." Wei Xi Er said indifferently.


    Wang Jun Qing and Wang Ma were both confused by the sudden enthusiasm, they were usually cold people, but today, not only were they smiling like flowers, they were also laughing like fire, completely different from the Wei Xi Er they knew! Was there something wrong with her head, or was she so happy about her pregnancy that her personality changed drastically?


    Xi Jiu Er knew that mother was protecting her ¡­ The tears flowed uncontrollably!


    "Hehe, this Wei Residence only has us two sisters, so of course we have to take care of each other. Moreover, sister normally treats Jun Qing extremely well, so after finding out that sister was pregnant, she immediately rushed over to take a look! She was afraid that her sister would be angry over the matter of the soup, so she was relieved to see it today! Big Sister treats Jun Qing the best. " Wang Jun Qing quickly reacted, holding Wei Xi Er like a child and acting like a spoiled child, "Sister is the best!"


    Wei Xi Er felt her stomach rolling, she almost wanted to vomit. Not only her, Xi Jiu Er almost vomited too, who would have thought that the calm and mighty First Lady would have such a side?


    This Wang Jun Qing was at least twenty years old, he had already almost become a mother, yet he shamelessly hugged her and acted like a spoiled child! Wei Xi Er took a deep breath and laughed: "Alright, alright, you''re a mother now, why are you still acting like a child?"


    At this time, the Madame Xi who had not shown up all this time came rushing over happily. Although she did not like Wei Xi Er, but on account of her grandson, she could only reluctantly put down her enmity towards Wei Xi Er! Seeing the two sisters in such a ''warm'' situation, she couldn''t help but feel happy. After all, the peace and quiet in the backyard was what she wanted to see.


    Xi Jiu Er looked over, the current Old Madame was still a late stage Madame, he was very young! She did not know the reason why the old Madame did not like mother. Later on, she gradually picked up on the inklings between the old Madame and the old First Lady. mother is too high ¡­ This was probably the main reason why the old Madame didn''t like him.


    However ¡ª ¡ª This was not how she thought, "We, Jun Qing, are sensible. We did not haggle over grudges with big sister and even took the initiative to visit big sister. This kind of bearing is hard to come by. It''s not like some people who have a small heart and can''t tolerate sand. They don''t have the slightest bit of humanity when it comes to doing things! " Madame Xi was born in a noble and noble family, so no matter what she said, she would beat around the bush.


    After being asked by Wei Xi Er for so little, the matter became somewhat meaningful. Thinking back, it was indeed strange, this matter ¡­ She turned her gaze to Wang Jun Qing, her eyes filled with suspicion.


    Wang Jun Qing didn''t even think that Wei Xi Er would be able to wipe her whole body with just a few words. Fortunately, she had reacted quickly, "Big sis, I really don''t know, even if I had a child, do I?"


    Wang Jun Qing''s meaning was very clear, if Wei Xi Er knew that she had a child, then she would definitely take responsibility!


    Because of what Wang Jun Qing had said, the focus of his doubts turned to Wei Xi Er, who rubbed her lower abdomen full of love and self-blame, "I didn''t know I was pregnant. If I had, no matter what I said, I wouldn''t go to Purple Bamboo House and let my child suffer with me! I am not a good mother and I don''t even know that I have a child.


    Wei Xi Er''s body felt a little weak. This monthly letter should have been delayed in advance, so it was extremely normal for him to not know that she was pregnant.


    Now that the Madame had already completely removed Wei Xi Er, she did not suspect Wang Jun Qing at all. With this child here, he would have the peace talisman, surely she would not be foolish enough to use a child to scheme against him. Therefore, she believed that there must be someone behind this. "Don''t worry, I''ll send someone to investigate this. Since you''re pregnant, take care of yourself. Don''t cry."


    "Yes." Wei Xi Er replied obediently.


    Since Wei Xi Er had gotten married, the Xi Family had always been treating him very carefully. Other than being a little more pampered and willful, Wei Xi Er was fine with everything else. Xi Madame had finally become a wife, but she was not someone who was casually offended. She could not be taught, and had to be kept alive and well ¡­ Don''t even mention how frustrated she was in her heart. Fortunately, Xi Hong Sheng''s career was improving, and she had endured it.


    She had been married for more than a year, but she was not pregnant yet. The doctors later said that with her body, it would be very difficult for her to conceive. No matter how noble Wei Xi Er''s identity was, if he could not give birth to a child, even the current princess would have to suffer, let alone Wei Xi Er.


    In order to not give up on the big tree known as the Wei family, Xi Family had planned to ¡­ After discussing with Wei Guogong and having him marry a concubinage, Wei Guogong agreed after seeing that her daughter couldn''t get pregnant for a long time.


    Wang Jun Qing was even more pleasing to the eye than Wei Xi Er. When he came, he immediately coaxed everyone in the mansion into being happy, and Madame Xi really wished that his daughter-in-law was Wang Jun Qing. The two of them slowly walked closer to each other like a mother and daughter. Under Wang Jun Qing''s instigation, she became even less fond of her daughter-in-law.


    I really don''t know how she suddenly became so obedient. Xi Madame nodded in satisfaction: "Mn, take good care of yourself, Jun Qing, let''s go, don''t disturb Xi Er''s rest."


    Wang Jun Qing did not expect Madame Xi''s attitude to change 180 degrees so quickly. He was furious and spent a lot of time trying to make him hate Wei Xi Er.


    No, no!


    When the Wei family heard that Wei Xi Er was pregnant, Wei Madame immediately prepared a lot of tonic and good things to go to the Wei Mansion. After a while, she couldn''t help but come over to look at her daughter. The Madame Wei was a beautiful and dignified woman, her body revealed the grandeur and elegance of a noble family, which was something that she was born with.


    This was also Xi Jiu Er''s first grandmother! It was a pity that the mother did not inherit her personality, otherwise she would not have ended up in such a miserable state.


    "Xi''er ¡­" As soon as Wei Madame entered the door, she hurriedly ran over to ask about the situation. Behind him was the following Seated Madame, she was afraid that Xi''er had said something that would cause Wei Madame to be displeased. Just now, Wei Madame in the front hall said that Wei Xi Er''s brother had won and was returning back to the imperial court as a teacher, so there must be a lot of rewards for him! At that time, her son''s career would be of great benefit ¡­ The more she thought, the happier she was. The more she felt that Wei Xi Er was really a money grubber!

    Xi Jiu Er was busy learning painting in the house, Liu Xiang was by her side waiting, ex-sister-in-law had already become the person in charge of her side, and Liu Shui was the person most in danger, she was not as good at attending to people, nor was she as smart as ex-sister-in-law, only having a body of martial arts, she would give it her all when Xi Jiu Er needed her.


    "Xi Jiu Er!" Xi Wan Rong''s voice could be heard from afar, and not long later, he saw that behind Xi Wan Rong was First Lady, and the mother and daughter entered the house. Xi Jiu Er stood up and saluted: "mother is here to look for Jiu Er, is there anything?"


    I searched inside the house for a long time but could not find it. The servants asked around and all said that they did not take it, while Dong Er, who was in the backyard said that she saw ex-sister-in-law sneaking out of my courtyard, so I came over. Coincidentally met mother, so the two of them came together. Xi Wan Rong''s eyes flashed as though he was watching a good show. He immediately became fully focused and looked at ex-sister-in-law: "You went to Miss Rong''s courtyard today?"


    The ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "If I were to return to Miss, I would be staying in the courtyard all day."


    The First Lady had a face full of curiosity, "Then that''s weird, since you didn''t go, then who did Dong Er see?"


    Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips: "Dong Er definitely saw ex-sister-in-law. There is nothing wrong with her eyes, how can she see wrong! I don''t know if the poor people who come from the countryside like to do those kinds of things. "


    ex-sister-in-law didn''t really know what to say for herself. In any case, it was not her turn to speak with Xi Jiu Er as her master, otherwise, what would this want to say. For example, she didn''t have any rules to teach him.


    "No matter what, we have to talk about all kinds of evidence. If you said that the ex-sister-in-law took it, then the Elder Sister Rong will take out all of the evidence. If we wrongly accuse the Big Sister ex-sister-in-law, then we will bring justice to the ex-sister-in-law." Xi Jiu Er looked at Xi Wan Rong with a smile that was not really a smile, and when she saw the certainty in Xi Wan Rong''s eyes, her heart skipped a beat.


    "Fine, since that''s the case, let''s go search around ex-sister-in-law''s room ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said with an expressionless face!


    "Then, ex-sister-in-law, please lead the way!" Xi Wan Rong looked at Xi Jiu Er triumphantly, looking down at the ex-sister-in-law in disdain. In the end, as someone who came from the countryside, his hands and feet were not clean.


    "You guys go ahead, mother won''t go." The First Lady smiled faintly. Xi Jiu Er thought, could it be that she already knew of the result? However, after thinking for a while, she understood that these were merely small tricks in First Lady''s eyes, she did not put them to heart at all ¡­


    ex-sister-in-law''s room was just next door, they arrived after walking a few steps! Xi Wan Rong immediately brought the servant inside the house to search. The ex-sister-in-law seemed to be extremely quiet, and Liu Shui quietly walked over to nod his head, causing the fog in his eyes to dissipate. Liu Xiang nervously held her hand, feeling terrified and uneasy ¡­ She knew that the ex-sister-in-law would definitely not do such a thing. In the past, the ex-sister-in-law was in charge of accounting books and had money with him, so she did not see him stealing anything. It was obvious that someone was framing him.


    The servants searched for a long time, but were unable to find the gold hairpin that Xi Wan Rong had mentioned. Xi Wan Rong frowned: "Dong Er said that she saw ex-sister-in-law take it, and she is definitely not mistaken." Her eyes wandered around ex-sister-in-law''s body. She seemed to be planning to search her body.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, do you mind if I search her body? Maybe she hid this thing on her body?" Xi Wan Rong laughed. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn''t help but feel that his laughter was fake!


    "I don''t mind ¡­" Xi Jiu Er knew that if she did not let Xi Wan Rong search her body, at that time, she would probably have to make use of this opportunity and reveal her inability to return the ex-sister-in-law''s innocence. Xi Wan Rong immediately went to search Si Ping''s body when he received the orders. Si Ping walked in front of ex-sister-in-law and searched his entire body, but he did not find any gold hairpins!


    "No?" Xi Wan Rong did not believe it.


    Xi Jiu Er mocked: "Why, big sister looks very disappointed."


    Xi Wan Rong pursed her lips. She still had to give the ex-sister-in-law justice this time, and just thinking about it made her feel extremely unhappy. He walked out of ex-sister-in-law''s room unhappily. First Lady knew that things were hopeless when he saw her daughter acting like this, and only laughed: "Looks like we wronged ex-sister-in-law."


    ex-sister-in-law immediately bowed and said she didn''t dare.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Elder Sister Rong, from now on, it''s best not to listen to the nonsense of others! In order to avoid being confused by Elder Sister Rong, when Elder Sister Rong speaks of it, I want to seek justice for ex-sister-in-law. "


    "This ¡­" Xi Wan Rong didn''t seem to be of any opinion as he looked at the First Lady. The First Lady laughed and said, "Since Dong Er said that it was done by the ex-sister-in-law, then let''s call Dong Er here to confront him."


    "Go, get Dong Er here." Xi Wan Rong immediately got someone to call Dong Er, and sat by the side with a heavy expression, not admitting defeat. Not long later, he brought over a maid. The maid looked pretty pretty pretty, but when he looked at his restless eyes, he felt as if he wasn''t feeling well at all.


    "You are Dong Er?" First Lady asked slowly.


    "Reporting to the First Lady, the Servant is indeed Dong Er!" Dong Er immediately said respectfully.


    "You said that ex-sister-in-law stole the Miss Rong''s golden hairpin, but you didn''t find anything on her body. It can be seen that you are wrongly accusing her." First Lady''s voice became heavier and heavier.


    Dong Er trembled as she replied, "Servant has definitely seen ex-sister-in-law sneaking out of Miss Rong''s courtyard. I definitely do not dare to lie at all!"


    First Lady let out a faint ''oh'', and looked towards Xi Jiu Er, meaning that she had seen it with her own eyes?


    "mother, this Dong Er said that she saw it with her own eyes. What evidence does she have? If I say that Dong Er stole it herself, then what about it? " Xi Jiu Er said coldly, staring straight at Dong Er.


    "Servant did not take it ¡­ It was taken by the ex-sister-in-law. " Dong Er said with absolute certainty: "First Lady, Servant definitely did not lie to you two."


    "Is that so? Then it would be better for us to search your room for fairness. If you don''t have a hairpin in your room, it would prove your innocence. Xi Jiu Er looked at First Lady, and First Lady said indifferently: "As you wish." Xi Wan Rong still wanted to take something back but the First Lady stopped him.


    When they went to Dong Er''s room, other than her, there was another person who lived with her. When the servant saw that so many people had entered the room, she was so scared that she almost fainted from rolling her eyes.


    "Search."


    Dong Er''s unperturbed expression was not at all afraid of finding anything, but the man immediately shouted: "Found it!" Her face changed slightly.


    The servant gave the golden hairpin to Xi Wan Rong with both hands. Although the golden hairpin was made out of gold and looked tacky, it was made of fine metal and Xi Wan Rong loved to touch it. This action had a deeper meaning in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, could it be that this was not Xi Wan Rong''s trick?


    When Dong Er heard that she had found a golden hairpin in his own room, her entire face turned pale white, and her legs became weak. How could this be? How could this be in her room? Right now, what else could she say? She could only look at First Lady and say, "First Lady, Servant is wronged. Servant doesn''t even have one ¡­"


    "I wronged you, wronged your golden hairpin, why is it in your room?" Xi Jiu Er said in an overbearing manner.


    Other than admitting defeat, what else could Dong Er do? But she couldn''t accept it. She couldn''t accept it. She wasn''t the one who did this ¡­ She had indeed seen ''ex-sister-in-law'' ¡­ Wait a minute, Dong Er suddenly remembered that she was only looking at the back of the ''ex-sister-in-law''. Other than screaming injustice, what else could she do? She didn''t even know what to say to the mastermind?


    Dong Er decided to sell it off as a crime of theft. It looked like a farce had ended just like that, so what were they supposed to do! First Lady held Xi Wan Rong''s hand and asked: "Were you the one who did this?"


    "mother thinks that it was her daughter who did it? Not a daughter! " Xi Wan Rong shook her head. She had just heard from Dong Er that it was ex-sister-in-law who stole the pill and excitedly went to find fault with her. She thought to herself that she could finally humiliate her after catching hold of Xi Jiu Er''s weakness, but she did not expect it to be this kind of situation.


    "So Dong Er stole it herself!" Xi Wan Rong said angrily.


    First Lady said indifferently: "I''m afraid this matter is not that simple ¡­ It looks like it wasn''t Dong Er''s doing, and it wasn''t Xi Jiu Er''s doing either ¡­ " It seemed like there was more to a small matter.


    Xi Wan Rong saw that First Lady was still frowning, and immediately fawned on him: "Alright, mother, don''t be angry over this, it''s not a big deal anymore! Your daughter got someone to customize a long skirt for mother, and your daughter will show it to mother right away. "


    "Our Rong Er is still sensible." As expected, First Lady left this behind, waiting for Xi Wan Rong to take out the dress and shake it open, her heart was moved, she did not pity her daughter for nothing, it was because she was considerate. The colors were his favorite, and the styles were his favorite as well. Yes, but the sizes were just right for him.


    "mother, how is it? Do you like it? " Xi Wan Rong asked as if he was offering a treasure.


    First Lady revealed joy and hurriedly nodded his head: "I like it, I like it, Rong Er will give me anything I like it."


    Xi Wan Feng who was standing outside the door looked at the cheers and laughter from the crowd as he quietly left. Coincidentally, they met Xi Wu Er who was born in a hurry. He was the fifth oldest in the mansion, and there were no maids waiting on him. Since he met her, he couldn''t pretend that he didn''t see anything. She lightly asked, "Fifth Sister, what happened?"


    Xi Wu Er''s face was pale, holding onto his stomach, he forced out a smile: It''s nothing, just that my body isn''t feeling well. was not a nosy person, after saying a few words about taking care of himself, he left. Xi Wu Er stared at her back and laughed sinisterly.

 C35

    These few days, Liu Xiang had mentioned that there was a servant called Mu Hua. When Xi Jiu Er and his wife were in a difficult situation, they had extended a hand to help them out. Afterwards, when Xi Jiu Er told her not to get along with the people in the family so easily, she gradually distanced herself from him and only gave him two taels of silver when she got married. But unexpectedly, after the wedding, her husband was not a person to her. He had been scolding and torturing Mu Hua all day, so when she saw that Mu Hua did not look like a human or a ghost, she begged Xi Jiu Er to save Mu Hua.


    Everyone in the servant''s courtyard gathered together and whispered amongst themselves, as if they were discussing something. From afar, they could hear Mu Hua''s painful sounds of begging for forgiveness, and even the men''s curses that covered their faces.


    Liu Xiang suddenly started shouting from behind Xi Jiu Er: "Miss, quickly go take a look, Mu Hua is definitely being tortured again!" After saying that, she hastily pushed her way through the crowd, and Xi Jiu Er followed along, afraid that she would be at a disadvantage.


    All he saw was a skinny woman lying on the ground, dying. Her empty eyes were filled with despair, resentment, and injustice. From the vague outline of her figure, Liu Xiang could tell that she was once a beautiful woman.


    "Wang Zhu, what are you doing? Quickly stop. Under broad daylight, you dare to beat your wife? Do you not want to live?" The Wang Zhu that Liu Xiang spoke of was not any good person, with one look, one could tell that the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks were extremely detestable. Yet, she still dressed up as a conceited person. As he cursed Mu Hua on the ground, she continued to punch and kick him ruthlessly, completely disregarding him as a human, as though she was a beast.


    "You, do you know that you''re doing things outside the courtyard of Ninth Miss? You''re too presumptuous." Liu Xiang saw that Wang Zhu was not a good person, she did not leave any words for him, and also scolded: "When the time comes, let us see how Ninth Miss will take care of you."


    "Ninth Miss? "Humph!" Wang Zhu did not even see Xi Jiu Er because shee was blocked behind the crowd. This Wang Zhu talked about everything everyday, talked about whatever he wanted to, and because he had some connections in the Palace, he was always arrogant and domineering.


    Her private mouth was extremely venomous, and whatever she said, she would not care about her own life.


    Wang Zhu scoffed, "I say, Liu Xiang, it doesn''t matter to you how I beat my wife, don''t you? You care too much, what''s more, I''m beating people outside the courtyard, not in the courtyard, what are you doing."


    Although Wang Zhu did not say it openly, his attitude was sufficient to prove that he did not even put Xi Jiu Er in his eyes. His monkey like face was filled with disdain, as if he was venting his anger and kicking Mu Hua hard, causing Mu Hua''s body to tremble from the pain.


    "..." "I''m begging you ¡­" Mu Hua curled herself up into a ball on the ground. Her eyes that Xi Jiu Er seemed to be saying: "You can either beat me to death, or beat me to death."


    Liu Xiang trembled from anger, she pointed at the servants and shouted: "Are you all dead people? Seeing that he did not even interfere when she just beat people up, you all got beaten to death."


    "Sigh, it''s not that I don''t want to help, but there''s nothing I can do about it. Look at Wang Zhu''s fierce look, how would I dare interfere?


    "That''s right. Look at his ferocious appearance. How can we stop him? Last time, someone went to pull him. We were beaten half to death, how could we dare to do that?"


    "Miss Liu Xiang, if you dare to go up, no one will stop you."


    "Yeah, if you want to go then go. I don''t dare to go."


    "Whoever goes will get unlucky ¡­"


    "¡­" Some of the spectators wanted to try and pull Wang Zhu, but they were afraid of his ferocity. Some of them had excited expressions on their faces, probably wanting Wang Zhu to beat him to death.


    This was human nature, it had been warped to the point that it made people feel disgusted, Xi Jiu Er felt like vomiting when she saw it, the people in the courtyard had changed after she returned from the villa, Liu Xiang had said that there were many people and she did not recognize any of them.


    In any case, it didn''t matter to her whether these people were exchanged or not. Since she had changed it now, why not use this opportunity to establish her prestige as an example? Otherwise, the dirty work and people would really be disgusting.


    "Liu Shui." Xi Jiu Er raised her chin to indicate to Liu Shui, who nodded her head, went up and without saying much, she directly slapped Wang Zhu, causing Wang Zhu to not be able to recover from his shock. He was fighting happily just now.


    "Who are you? You dare to hit me?" Wang Zhu, this grown man, was actually struck down to the ground by Liu Shui, the maid who looked weak but was already blown away by the wind. This scene happened too fast, leaving people unable to prepare themselves for it.


    Liu Shui''s usual expression was a little silly, and he said indifferently: "I am the servant Liu Shui that Ninth Miss bought."


    Ninth Miss? That means the Ninth Miss is here? They had been too focused on watching the commotion previously and hadn''t paid much attention to the people around them. Just as expected, they had caught sight of their master''s shadow.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly walked out and sneered: "Wang Zhu, what you are saying is really getting more and more capable, to actually publicly disregard a master like me. It seems like your life is too comfortable, don''t you think you''re a Young Master?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s voice carried a smile that was not a smile, but the ruthless aura coming out from her body was even thicker than Wang Zhu''s, causing people to look at him with trepidation. This was the first time they had seen Xi Jiu Er, who had been sent to the villa, being sent back.


    "You are the Ninth Miss?" Wang Zhu looked at Xi Jiu Er who was standing in front of him in a daze, a strange expression flashed past his eyes, previously, Xi Jiu Er was not favored at all in the house, but the servants were all respectful on the surface and did not pay attention to her privately, so she would usually do things perfunctorily.


    Wang Zhu didn''t expect Xi Jiu Er to be different, so he asked with uncertainty.


    Xi Jiu Er sneered: "If it''s not me, then who? I remember that your indenture was still in my hands. " To a servant, the indenture contract was their lifeline, and sure enough, Wang Zhu''s face was ugly.


    Xi Jiu Er left these words behind before she coldly turned around and left.


    It was so light that it was almost as if it was made of paper. Mu Hua wanted to push Liu Xiang away, but Liu Xiang held onto him tightly: "Mu Hua, what are you doing? Ninth Miss will decide for you now, don''t worry, that bastard Wang Zhu will take care of her."


    "Liu Xiang, let me die ¡­ Let me die... "I don''t want to live anymore ¡­" Mu Hua''s tears fell down, her face full of despair, making people''s hearts ache uncontrollably.


    "What nonsense are you talking about? You must stay alive!" Liu Xiang said angrily: "If you want to live a good life, then if you were to die, wouldn''t that mean that there would be no one to punish that son of a b * tch Wang Zhu? Can you bear with it? If it were me, I wouldn''t be able to bear it. "


    "Then, then what can I do?" Mu Hua asked blankly.


    "Live well. Your life has only just begun, and after you take care of Wang Zhu, I''ll let you out of the Xi Mansion." Xi Jiu Er followed the two of them. Seeing Mu Hua walking with difficulty and thinking of her past self, she was not in a sorry state, but was not even half a master.


    In fact, she was the one who was foolish, there were many clues that could be seen through when the First Lady was in front of them. If it wasn''t for those servants, how could she not see herself as someone important? In his previous life, the First Lady had been very kind to him, just like his own daughter, but ¡ª


    She allowed Xi Wan Rong to humiliate her. Xi Wan Feng schemed against her, and the servants despised her, hehe, I have to say that the First Lady did a good job, not only did she gain a good reputation, she even took care of me.


    "Miss, you are still too young. You, you don''t know anything ¡­" When he thought about his current situation, Mu Hua felt extremely disheartened. Without saying anything further, he forcefully opened up Liu Xiang and planned to charge head on. Fortunately, Xi Jiu Er felt that there was something wrong with her tone, as if all her hopes were on the verge of death, so she had been observing Mu Hua''s movements the entire time. Seeing that she was trying to struggle free from Liu Xiang, she shouted "Oh no!"


    "Hm." Even if Xi Jiu Er managed to hold him back, he was a step too late. Mu Hua had already fainted.


    "Mu Hua, you, why do you have to go through so much trouble? You''re about to live a good life, why are you so upset?" Liu Xiang wiped her tears and asked, "Miss, is what you said true?"


    "When did you see your Miss lying?" Xi Jiu Er was not in a good mood: "Quickly go and get someone to help, if he faints, how can we lift him up?"


    Xi Jiu Er sat in the outer room and waited for the results, but Liu Xiang was kicked out of the room. Liu Xiang shook her head and asked: "I don''t know, ex-sister-in-law suddenly asked me to go out, and said that there are some things that a little girl like me should not look at. Miss, Mu Hua and I are both women, why can''t we look at her? "


    "You are both women, but Liu Xiang, you are still Huang Hua''s daughter." Xi Jiu Er could vaguely guess that she was not Huang Hua''s daughter. She had already ¡­ As she thought of this, her face heated up and she felt a little embarrassed.


    Before long, ex-sister-in-law sent the doctor out. Logically speaking, she should have told Xi Jiu Er first, she definitely had some intentions behind her actions. ex-sister-in-law had a strange expression on her face when she returned: "Miss, Mu Hua''s condition has stabilized, the doctor said that he had just knocked himself unconscious, there is nothing serious, he will wake up in a few hours."


    "Is that so? Why did ex-sister-in-law want to say something but hesitated? Is there a problem? "We have no outsiders here, so you can speak freely ¡­"


    ex-sister-in-law''s face was a little unnatural. She clenched her teeth and scolded: "This beast that is hacked to death, Mu Hua''s body does not have a single good spot that is full of wounds. There are also bite marks, whipping marks, soldering marks, pricking marks ¡­ "It is simply too horrible to look at ¡­"


    ex-sister-in-law thought back to her body that was full of scars and couldn''t help but want to cry. This wound wasn''t the most fatal one, the most fatal one was ¡­


    "Wang Zhu, this bastard, Miss, do not let her go, you must avenge Mu Hua, this man is not human." Liu Xiang was so angry that his face was flushed red, as if he wanted to kill Wang Zhu with a thousand knives and ten thousand pots.

 C36

    "Miss, you must have seen with your own eyes that Mu Hua does not have a good body. Besides this, there is the most deadly one ¡­" ex-sister-in-law''s expression was a bit embarrassed and unnatural. "What''s more serious is her lower body. Her lower body has already been destroyed by something. The doctor said that it will be difficult for her to give birth in the future."


    "What!" Even if Xi Jiu Er heard it, she was not only shocked, she was also tricked? Such a thing actually happened? It was not only her who changed their expressions. She was not the least bit embarrassed after hearing what Wang Zhu had said, instead, she was furious. This goddamned man, Wang Zhu.


    "Where was he born to be a human?" I don''t think that was why she tormented Mu Hua like that. The doctor said that she was hurt by a sharp weapon or a stick ¡­ Miss, the situation is truly tragic. " Thinking back, she couldn''t help but shiver. She really didn''t know how Mu Hua endured through all this.


    Mu Hua was only eighteen years old, and at that age, she could no longer be raised. If a girl didn''t have a son, then that man would marry her. Could it be that she wanted to be a stepmother?


    No wonder her attitude was so firm. She should have already known about her body''s condition. Xi Jiu Er sighed. Sometimes she felt that she was a miserable example in her previous life, but who in this world wasn''t miserable? Thankfully, the heavens had given her the opportunity to reinvent herself ¡­


    "Liu Xiang, you, Mu Hua, have the best relationship with each other. Go and guard it. You tell her that I will take revenge for her. I won''t let this Wang Zhu go easily, I''ll find the best doctor to treat her body ¡­ You better try to persuade her. She''s not even afraid of death, what''s there to be afraid of? "


    "Yes, Servant will go take a look now." Liu Xiang nodded, suddenly she felt that she was shouldering a life, she had to think of a way to persuade Mu Hua not to be born lightly, just like how Miss said, she wasn''t even afraid of death, what was there to be afraid of?


    "Liu Shui, go and take out the items from the third drawer in my room. I''ll be useful when the time comes." Xi Jiu Er took out her key, "This is the key."


    "Yes." Liu Shui took the key and turned to leave.


    "ex-sister-in-law, don''t put too much of this in this small porcelain bottle into Mu Hua''s soup." She took out the small porcelain bottle from his pocket and handed it over to ex-sister-in-law. ex-sister-in-law knew that this thing was powerful, but she did not know what it was. She immediately received it with both hands and nodded, "Yes."


    She knew that Xi Jiu Er had purposely kept Liu Xiang and Liu Shui away just to give her this, and she didn''t want others to know that.


    "ex-sister-in-law, before you came back, I had already told you about the matters in the residence. You have to be careful when you meet them in the future, Xi Wan Feng''s personality is the same as hers, you just can''t tell anything just by looking at her appearance. Xi Wan Rong is a lot simpler now, and impulsive and jealous.


    "Yes, Servant will be careful." ex-sister-in-law also knew that in this deep courtyard house, they had to be extremely careful. If by any chance there was a crime of deceiving the owner, he would be taken down and his life might even be lost.


    "Miss, Mu Hua is awake." Liu Xiang shouted through the curtain.


    Mu Hua laid on her bed with her eyes wide open as she stared at the roof of the tent. Liu Xiang had said many things to advise her, but there were two things that were right. Maybe this was an opportunity. Just as Liu Xiang had said, this was an opportunity to get rid of Wang Zhu.


    Mu Hua was moved, and said while trembling: "Miss, your great kindness is something Mu Hua cannot repay."


    Dealing with a servant was nothing, but Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "I''ll return the favor. I''ll live a good life, live a happy life, live a happy life, and live a happy life, and I''ll only be worthy of myself if I live a better life than anyone else. "When you''re more or less recovered, come to my shop and help me!"


    She used to be unable to endure Wang Zhu''s torture and wanted to escape, but being captured and tortured even more, this was simply inhuman treatment for her.


    "Miss... "I want him to die. Only when he dies will I be free of this calamity, and truly be reborn. Otherwise, he will be like a ghost that will always follow me and torment me." Mu Hua gritted her teeth: "But Miss, I heard from Wang Zhu that he has some sort of relationship with the Wang Ma beside him. If she were to beat him to death, she would definitely offend him, and Wang Ma is extremely dependant on him, First Lady will definitely avenge Wang Ma ¡­"


    "You don''t want Wang Zhu''s life, I want you. He has no master, he bullied the lord and even insulted the lord, everyone saw that, there is evidence even if you want to shield him, I am the dignified Xi Mansion, how can I be insulted by a lowly slave? How could I have the face to see everyone after this? My grandfather in Wei Guogong will feel sad too. " Xi Jiu Er sneered, she finally started to like Mu Hua a little. She was a pretty good servant girl, to think that she didn''t consider him to be selfish.


    "Liu Shui, bring Wang Zhu to my courtyard... Today, I want those people who came to watch the liveliness, to watch the liveliness. " Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her expression could not be seen: "ex-sister-in-law, go find that rough old woman in the backyard. Today, I want to beat Wang Zhu to death."


    "Liu Shui." ex-sister-in-law made her move immediately.


    "Let''s go and watch the show." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Mu Hua, you cannot be soft-hearted, think about what he has done to you, and also remember, those people who have hurt us, we must repay them multiple times."


    "Miss... Mu Hua was not afraid. Every day, she would think of a way to kill Yue Yang ¡­ I have to see him die before I''m free. " Mu Hua lifted her blanket and was about to get off the bed, but she was stopped by Liu Xiang.


    "Mu Hua, let me support you." Liu Xiang said with incomparably firm eyes.


    Not only had the Ninth Miss changed, even Liu Xiang had changed. His pair of eyes had become extremely strong, as if there was a raging fire burning within them. She also wanted to be a strong person, living a red life, living a happy life.


    In the courtyard, Wang Zhu was thrown onto the ground with all kinds of tied up. His body twisted as he shouted, "Ninth Miss, let me go, let me go, I must treat Mu Hua well, I must treat Mu Hua well ¡­"


    A few steps away stood a group of people who had come to watch the show. When everyone saw Xi Jiu Er and the rest appear, they did not make a sound, with only a few pairs of eyes moving around, looking at each other.


    "Beat this bully''s lackey to death." When Xi Jiu Er said this, the entire place instantly became extremely quiet, strangely quiet. Wang Zhu was the first to react and shouted loudly, "Miss, don''t, I was wrong, I was wrong ¡­"


    "How dare you call me master!" Xi Jiu Er said angrily: "Beat him up, beat him to death, and let these unscrupulous people see that I am a descendant of the direct descendant of the Xi Family, and not some lowly slave that can be disgraced."


    "Hit him!" Xi Jiu Er''s attack was extremely powerful, the old ladies'' hands were so angry that they started to hit the rod, and just as they were about to swing down, they heard Wang Zhu''s miserable cries, ''wow wow''.


    Wang Zhu was originally very skinny, and fighting him was truly painful for him. The people who were called over to watch trembled as if the rod had hit them, and all of them couldn''t help but retreat.''s heart-wrenching screams rang in their ears, causing them to pale in fear.


    "Ah, ah..." Mu Hua, help me beg Miss ¡­ Let this little servant let you go this time ¡­ "Ahh!" Wang Zhu was truly afraid this time, his life was completely in the other party''s hands. He had signed the death contract, there was no problem at all if he were to beat him to death.


    "Beg Miss?" Now, Mu Hua realized that she could actually smile. "Back then, I begged you, thinking about how I begged you, kneeling on the ground like a dog begging you, did you forgive me?"


    Seeing Wang Zhu like this, she was truly pleased in his heart, and felt extremely comfortable. Wang Zhu, you did not expect yourself to have such a day, did you?


    "Mu Hua, don''t go and ask for it. Think about what you said before, you have to do it when you say it." Liu Xiang was afraid that she would be soft-hearted for a moment.


    "Aiyo ¡­" You little slut... Little harlot... (TN: Noo! Noo! Noo Ah, I won''t let you go ¡­ Even if I die, I will kill you, you bitch... Ah ¡­ Slut ¡­ "Slut ¡­" Wang Zhu was rolling on the ground in pain, the sound of the death fee was extremely painful, causing people''s hair to stand up.


    "You actually dare to say such filthy things in front of the master? Beat him!" Xi Jiu Er said with an expressionless face.


    "Don''t be complacent ¡­" Someone came back to clean you up... Hahahahahaha ¡­ "Slut ¡­" Wang Zhu was like a bunch of madmen as he shouted, roared, and spoke insolently. After fighting for about an hour, he was finally beaten to death.


    "Miss, with such a huge commotion, why hasn''t anyone come?" ex-sister-in-law came over and whispered.

 C37

    Wang Ma was a person who knew when to stop, she knew when the best course of action was to stop, it seemed like this Wang Zhu had some sort of relationship with her.


    First Lady saw Wang Ma come over with red eyes and choked with sobs: "Madame... My nephew, my nephew was beaten to death by the Ninth Miss ¡­ "Sob, sob ¡­" It turned out that Wang Zhu was her nephew, and she did not really like him, but instead hated him. If he came to bother her and ask her to borrow money for drinks, Wang Ma would threaten him to tell others about their relationship, and she would not help him anymore.


    Wang Bao was not a fool. What kind of virtue did he have that he did not know? Since the Wang Ma was willing to help him, then he would listen to him and not talk about it. With regards to the many times Wang Ma tried to persuade him to change his bad habit, he ignored it, and didn''t even remember a single thing when his left ear went in and out of his right ear.


    Over time, the Wang Ma could not be bothered anymore. Wang Bao was definitely not a good person. After her observation, Mu Hua was a sincere and kind person, holding onto the good of his family, but if Wang Bao were to live a good life with Mu Hua and give birth to a fat boy, according to her connections in the house, it wouldn''t be difficult for her to get them to leave.


    It was a pity, however ¡ª She had only realized that Wang Zhu was not a normal man when she saw him beating Mu Hua up and spitting dirt from his mouth when she coincidentally saw him wanting to beat him up. No! As time passed, his heart became extremely unbalanced, and he made Mu Hua the target of her rage. Punching, kicking, and even punching, he did not seem like he was treating a person at all.


    After Wang Ma stopped him a few times, Wang Zhu agreed on the surface, but when he left, he would still fight as usual. Because Wang Zhu and Mu Hua''s indenture contract had fallen onto Xi Jiu Er''s body, she could not always run over to Xi Jiu Er''s side, and after a long time, she would stop taking it to heart, and just leave everyone alive, and leave him be.


    However, she had guessed that Wang Zhu would not live long, but who would have thought that he would be beaten to death? In the end, she was still his relative. Only after death could she understand a lot more about it, especially if she didn''t wish for Wang Zhu to die or if she didn''t want Wang Zhu to die in the end.


    First Lady was shocked when she heard it. The first thing she thought of was that Xi Jiu Er, this little bitch, actually told how a servant beat her to death? This... Although Xi Jiu Er''s personality was a bit arrogant, and her temper was not very good, according to her from a young age, this would not happen.


    No matter how much her character changed, it couldn''t change the character deep down inside her bones ¡­ The Wang Ma would definitely not lie if he followed him for nearly twenty years, so he asked: "What happened, did Wang Zhu crash into it herself?" It was possible with this personality, but she had heard of Wang Zhu before, and did not like this kind of person.


    Wang Ma is someone who understood First Lady the best, so he didn''t lie and nod his head, "Madame is right, it was indeed that eyeless thing that charged over, but this old servant heard Wang Zhu say loudly, ''I am from First Lady, you have to see the master even if you hit a dog''." However, he heard the Ninth Miss say ''Hmph, I beat up the First Lady''s''.


    "Guess what?" First Lady asked suspiciously, she knew Wang Ma would not let her go and vent her anger on Wang Zhu. What kind of trash was Wang Zhu, he was just a servant, there was no need for her to lower herself to fight Xi Jiu Er with someone who was a servant.


    "This old servant guesses that when Ninth Miss acts in front of us, we have to be careful. This old servant thought back to before we ¡­ He seemed to have been played for a fool by the other party ¡­ From the time we gave her the petticoats, one by one, I''m afraid it wasn''t as simple as that. " Although it was hard for the Wang Ma to lose Wang Bao, she was not an idiot either. Not only could she not take revenge for Wang Zhu with her complaints, she could also make the First Lady hate her.


    After thinking about it along the way, she felt that Xi Jiu Er was not as simple as it seemed. If it was another explanation, she might have realized that too many ''coincidences'' had occurred to Xi Jiu Er.


    "Whether or not she''s playing with us, she can forget about escaping from my grasp. However, whether or not she''s really stupid or just faking it, there''s no difference. I''m her legitimate mother, I have everything she''s got in my hands, she can''t create any big waves." First Lady didn''t think it was anything special as she had already held Xi Jiu Er in her hands for more than ten years. In another two to three years, she would be married. Everything would be free for her, and the bitch with the thorn in her eye would be free.


    More than ten years had already passed. Was he still worried that three years had passed in a row? There was no need to worry at all... It hasn''t been three years in a row!


    "Wang Ma, don''t worry. When Xi Jiu Er falls into our hands, we will deal with her as much as you want. Just treat it as revenge for your nephew."


    "Yes." Wang Ma was very happy to receive this promise, and his expression became much better. "Madame, do you want to take a look to see what happened?"


    "Forget it, she can handle the matters in her courtyard as she pleases. I''d be more than happy to do so just because of this matter''s bad reputation!" First Lady smiled and started to dress up by herself. Tonight, Xi Hong Sheng was going to sleep in her room, she had to dress up properly.


    She, the mother, was the one who had been considering the most about how to win Xi Hong Sheng over. She didn''t even take it to heart. Wang Ma immediately tidied up her mind and dressed her up properly for First Lady. After she finished, her actions made people''s eyes light up.


    "So you really are skillful. Unlike them, who are all stupid, they don''t even know how to clean up." The First Lady looked at the copper mirror happily and suddenly thought of something. "Wang Ma, go and give me the incense burner ¡­.. As he spoke, he felt somewhat embarrassed.


    "Madame, do you think Master will find out?" Xi Hong Sheng would always go to those brothels and singing academies for social meetups. What Dong must have seen before, if he ever saw Madame''s old face again, and this old couple still played with this sort of thing, it wouldn''t sound good if it got out.


    "Don''t worry, this is my new treasure, they gave it to me, they are using it too, I heard that after using it, it makes men unable to stop, in order to obtain the Master''s heart, I am willing to do anything, if not that little slut would come riding on my head."


    "Alright ¡­" The ''they'' mentioned by First Lady were the best of the best. They would share all the good stuff, including what dresses were good to look at, what dresses were beautiful, what jewelry were nice to look at, and so on. There were more private topics they could talk about.


    This was because Xi Jiu Er''s smile was very cold, as if she was staring at his prey, and told them that there was nowhere for them to hide. Each of them could not help but flinch, and those behind them were so scared that they wanted to dig into the ground before they could stop.


    "Miss, what you want." Liu Shui handed over the metal box in her hands to her. Xi Jiu Er opened it slowly and took out a receipt: "Old Feng''s family, this is the receipt for the metal box that you wanted me to lease my shop to you for three years. I want to take it back now."


    This shop was very prosperous and was very profitable. mother left it to her and tricked her, saying that she would be given 500 taels of silver every year as rent and it would last for 10 years. Xi Jiu Er didn''t want to give it to her, but in her previous life, she was just too poor, too cold. Xi Wan Rong came over every day to provoke him, making her look incomparably bright.


    Xi Wan Rong had an old Madame and a First Lady. She didn''t have anything, so she bought whatever she could sell. In this life, she wouldn''t be so stupid as to give these things to these ingrate for free.


    The old granny of the Old Feng''s family was one of the elders in Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard. She had been here since the day Xi Jiu Er was born, and could be considered the manager''s wife in Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard. When she heard that Xi Jiu Er was going to take back the shop, she felt like she saw white banknotes slip away! No, he definitely couldn''t let her take away the treasure pot.


    "Miss... This ¡­ this isn''t a good idea, right? It says ten years ¡­ " Old Feng''s family stammered her words. As she wanted to take possession of the thing, she experienced the same thing that Wang Zhu had done before and developed a sense of fear in Xi Jiu Er''s heart. She was afraid that if she angered the other party, even if she did not die, she would lose a layer of skin.


    Wang Bao was only cursed for a few sentences before being beaten to death. She had to be careful with her words, otherwise, she would become the second Wang Bao. Of course she knew about Wang Bao''s origins as an old man at home. He was Wang Ma''s distant nephew.


    "Why can''t I? "The store is mine, so I''ll rent it. If it''s not rented, then I won''t rent it, is that not okay?" Xi Jiu Er''s face sunk, her voice was cold and threatening, especially her eyes, which made people even more afraid.


    Was the Old Feng''s family afraid? She was afraid, but she was even more afraid of being poor, much more afraid of losing money! That shop made two thousand a year, and in three years time she had earned six thousand ¡­ No way, I can''t let the silver run away, I can''t run away no matter what!

 C38

    "But Miss, the contract states that if you return, you will have to pay a double compensation. In another seven years, you will have to pay five hundred silver taels every year, and a double payment will be seven thousand silver taels ¡­" She was very clear about Xi Jiu Er''s family background, and she did not believe that Xi Jiu Er could take out seven thousand gold, that she could get married off to a concubinage.


    Xi Jiu Er gave a cold laugh, "Seven thousand silver, right? , give her seven thousand silvers, we''ll start anew right now! " 7,000 taels was definitely a large sum in her previous life, but in this life, it was not worth mentioning. She had already asked about this store, ex-sister-in-law did some calculations, and after a year, she estimated that she would have a net income of 2000 or 3000 taels. This Old Feng''s family''s plan was really well calculated.


    Old Feng''s family did not expect Xi Jiu Er to be able to take out seven thousand silver notes in one go. She looked at the silver notes in her hands in shock and did not accept it. She did some calculations. The net income of 2,000 taels a year was 14,000 taels in seven years. If she didn''t do it, then no matter what she did, she wouldn''t be able to do it.


    "Miss, it''s not that this old servant doesn''t agree, it''s just too unreasonable." The Old Feng''s family couldn''t think of a good solution after thinking for a long time. She was so anxious that she was about to perspire.


    At that time, Old Feng''s family said that she was the middleman, and that she could transfer the business of the shop to a trustworthy friend. Xi Jiu Er was in a rush to use the money, and since she had the shop already, it would be useless. What was the use of it?


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er sneered. At that moment, she knew that she wouldn''t throw the seven thousand silver out. Giving Liu Xiang a look, Liu Xiang took the banknotes and left, staring at the Old Feng''s family''s eyes that followed after the banknotes. Honestly, she was really reluctant, but she wanted to let go of this chance to get big fish.


    "Haha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er laughed very happily. Her voice was pleasant to the ears, and she sounded really, really happy. Xi Jiu Er changed into a more comfortable position and slowly said. "People are always so greedy, it makes them feel very disgusted."


    For some reason, Old Feng''s family''s voice sounded like the voice of a ghost. She knelt on the ground and shivered, it was a kind of wordless fear and oppression, and the beads of perspiration on her forehead flowed down unknowingly. Her intuition told her that she had probably gotten into a lot of trouble this time.


    "Old Feng''s family''s. I, Jiu Er, won''t bother with you on account that you''re an old man, but you''re too greedy. Xi Jiu Er clapped her hands, ex-sister-in-law brought an old man over. The old man looked like the owner of the shop.


    When the boss appeared, Old Feng''s family''s face immediately turned pale, as if he had just seen his mountain of gold and silver fly away. Some had a face full of doubt, some looked like they were thinking about something, while others looked like they were following Old Feng''s family. Such people did not even need to think to know that they knew what the Old Feng''s family had done.


    Xi Jiu Er took a good look at the man''s expression and asked the old man: Let me ask you this, how long will it take for the Old Feng''s family to rent you the south bed for?


    The old man was not worth it! Just by looking at what had happened, he knew that the situation was bad, and was afraid that it would implicate him. He hurriedly said, "To return to Miss, would take half a year."


    "Half a year? "Oh, why didn''t you continue renting for half a year?" Xi Jiu Er asked with a smile, looking harmless. Only the Old Feng''s family herself knew what exactly was hidden under this face, and only she herself knew. Her mind was working fast, trying to come up with a solution.


    "She''s been doing very well for half a year. Suddenly, she brought a few big and strong thugs over and told me to move out immediately. If I don''t move out, people will beat me to death. I''m scared... "I heard that Xi Family wanted to take back Pu Zi to do business, if we don''t move away and offend Xi Family, we won''t have a good ending ¡­" The old man was a little nervous. With a glance, he could tell that he was a simple and honest person.


    "So, you were forced to move out, weren''t you?" Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly, her eyes telling him not to be afraid, not to worry.


    The old man calmed down after hearing the encouraging look in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, and nodded: "To return to Miss, yes, I was afraid and had to move out."


    "Old Feng''s family, you really have some skills. You actually dared to lie to me! Hmph, what ten years of signing? It was clearly only half a year, you actually lied to me! Someone, tie her up and beat her! " Xi Jiu Er shouted out, her voice sounding like a thunderclap.


    "No!" The Old Chen family immediately screamed out, the blood on the ground had not dried yet, she did not want to continue experiencing Wang Zhu like this, it was too scary, she will beat him to death.


    "No!" "It''s not up to you. You cheated me first, then you played me like a monkey ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said angrily: "Even if I''m young, I still can''t be bullied by you dog slaves."


    Only then did the old man know the reason. Afraid that it would implicate him, the old man started to shrink his body, planning on sneaking out quietly. Xi Jiu Er saw this and whispered a few words into Liu Xiang''s ear. Liu Xiang nodded, then walked over to the old man and quietly gave him a silver ingot: "Old man, my Miss said that there is nothing else for you, you can go back."


    "Thank you Miss. It''s fine. If it''s fine, I''ll be going ¡­" The old man made a bow with his hands folded in front of his chest, then ran away. Oh god, this Miss was too terrifying.


    "Hit him!" Xi Jiu Er shouted loudly, "I hate people who have deceived me the most."


    "Miss, Miss, you can''t do this ¡­ "This old servant has always served you wholeheartedly. How can you treat this old servant like this? This old servant is unwilling and unwilling ¡­" The Old Feng''s family struggled with all his might and started shouting, "This old servant knows that Miss wants to establish his might after he returns, but this old servant cannot use his life to set an example."


    This sentence was extremely venomous, it was obvious who was at fault in the eyes of the people, yet this Old Feng''s family could say anything to avoid being beaten up, had she forgotten how Wang Zhu was beaten to death? The glittering example did not even draw a lesson!


    "Is that so? It seems like you, Wang Zhu, have not learned your lesson! " Xi Jiu Er raised his hand: "Then, I will beat you until you understand, you dog slave!"


    These people felt that this dog thing deserved it. Ninth Miss had clearly given her a way out, seven thousand gold, she did not want it, okay, now that she was beaten up, not to mention the silver, it was also gone. Wasn''t this supposed to be some greedy thing?


    No matter what the result was, the Old Feng''s family was destined to eat this today, it was just eating a lot. If she were to be frank and lenient, then she would be fine.


    "Fight!" trembled in fear. She was a person of the old Madame, so she was not afraid! Therefore, he shouted loudly: "Old Madame, old Madame, you let this old servant serve you, I did not expect me to treat you like this, you must uphold justice for this old servant."


    Hehe, so it''s someone from the Old Madame.


    Old Madame told you to serve me. See how you serve me? The words that Tian Xi Jiu Er said the most were ''hit'', and she also stared at Old Feng''s family gloomily: "No one will be able to save you now, if we go to the yamen to investigate this matter, I also have evidence to give. Do you think that a tricky slave like you would ask for it? The official Master will definitely beat you to death. "


    "Miss, Miss... This old servant was wrong ¡­ Ah, spare this old servant ¡­ "It''s this old servant''s fault ¡­" Not only was the Old Feng''s family in pain, the stick was also like a snake. Wherever she ran to, the pain would kill her. If she gave in, why couldn''t she just beg for mercy? She couldn''t take it anymore ¡­ She didn''t want to die. She still wanted to live well, live well, and she still wanted that silver to go to her daughter-in-law!


    Ten taels of silver? My God, they can''t earn that much even with three to five years of hard work! The two old women hurriedly said, "Miss, we aren''t tired at all, not at all." On the contrary, they were fighting happily, these were the same kind of servants as her sect, and they normally did not treat them as human beings. After being angered by their masters, they ran over to find them, and they had a long grudge.


    "Miss ¡­" It was only then that Old Feng''s family realized that her life and death was completely in the other party''s hands. It was useless even if she begged for mercy, and the fear in her heart spread to her four limbs and bones. Wrong... This old servant was truly wrong ¡­ "


    Xi Jiu Er heard that she was not lying and nodded her head to make the missus stop: "Did you already know you were wrong? "Then tell me, what were your mistakes?"


    "The fault is being unfaithful to the Miss ¡­" This Old Feng''s family was not stupid, she had said that she had hit the nail on the head, and was smart, but unfortunately she could not use it.


    "It''s good that you know your wrongs! What about you? Do you want me to ask for myself or do you want me to tell you honestly one by one? " Xi Jiu Er sat gracefully on the chair and smiled.


    Plop, plop, plop ¡­ Seemingly fighting to prove his guilt, Xi Jiu Er and the others laughed when they saw the situation.


    There were rewards and rewards, the rewards and the rewards were clear and tidy. Xi Jiu Er had kept her promise and given each of them 10 gold coins, those who took the initiative to admit their wrongs, although she punished them a few times, but gave them double the salary, letting them know how powerful Xi Jiu Er''s methods were.

 C39

    "Miss, these are all the shops left behind by the Madame. Other than the one in the south, there are two more. One is on the northwest road and the other is on the southeast road. I wonder which shop Miss would like to visit first?" ex-sister-in-law organized the treasures that Xi Jiu Er had left behind, all of them were currently under Xi Jiu Er''s name. As for what other stores there were, she was not sure, because there were no proof of them remaining.


    Three stores? Xi Jiu Er asked: "Which store is closest to Xi Mansion?"


    "It''s the shop on the Northwest Road." The ex-sister-in-law calculated: "I will need about an hour to make a carriage."


    "Alright, pack up and we''ll take a look at the shops on the Northwest Road." Xi Jiu Er brought ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui out, and as for Liu Xiang, she was allowed to look at the courtyard. In truth, she did not want to bring Liu Xiang there.


    "The shop on the Northwest Road is run by Shopkeeper Xu. It is arranged by the Madame. It has been in operation for thirteen or fourteen years now." ex-sister-in-law reported all the information she had gathered to Xi Jiu Er to the extent that even if she knew this, she wouldn''t be able to get much out of him. She only knew that the shops on the Northwest Road would give Xi Jiu Er silver coins every month.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed coldly: "I might not be able to get this silver back in my entire life, what is it now that I''m giving it to father, I think it should be given to First Lady or the Old Madame." First Lady and Old Madame were only mother-in-law. Old Madame only had this kind of son, she naturally wanted to save everything in her hands for her son and herself. Even if First Lady had been married for more than ten years, in the Old Madame''s eyes, she was still an outsider. With the death of mother and the fact that she was still young, the old Madame naturally thought that all of these things belonged to her.


    The ex-sister-in-law did not speak, the Miss was right, regardless of whether it was the First Lady or the old Madame, they could not spit out the silver, this Xi Family was truly shameless, the Miss had been living a short life, and these so-called relatives had taken over their family''s property, this was shameless.


    Looking at Xi Jiu Er''s face that was as calm as jade, ex-sister-in-law couldn''t help but sigh. The reason Miss changed was because she had clearly seen the true appearance of these people.


    The Northwest Road had been renovated and became even more prosperous than before. In Xi Jiu Er''s vision in her previous life, the Northwest Road used to have a lot of empty floors, but after being renovated, the floors here had already become gold, so a thousand gold was hard to come by.


    As expected, when he lifted the curtain, the bustling street was very lively, every shop had an endless stream of customers, the fire in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes was about to spew out, good, good, the amount of silver that the old Madame had coveted over the past few years was at least in the tens of thousands. There was no rush, no rush, she would think of a way to spit out the greedy silver from Old Madame.


    "Stop the car." Xi Jiu Er told the coachman to stop, and brought ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui along to set up shop. At the same time, she inquired about the business of the shop. When they heard that Xi Jiu Er had found out that they had a very good reputation here, perhaps because of the Xi Family, they were very confident in the Xi Family''s heavy business, but recently, because the reputation of the Xi Family had been tarnished, the business of the Xi Family was not as good as it was in the past.


    This was within Xi Jiu Er''s expectations, but it was also within Xi Jiu Er''s expectations or perhaps it was beyond her expectations. Just a few days ago, this Xi Family''s dense courtyard had been set ablaze for some reason, and not a single thing had been born from it.


    A fire? Nothing remained? He didn''t need to think to know the reason, even a fool could guess who was behind it. Old Madame, as expected, you''re more experienced than you are.


    "Miss ¡­" ex-sister-in-law''s face did not look good, this Xi Family really had a flawless way of doing things.


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head: "I originally wanted to keep this to myself. We can talk about these things later." With that, she arrived under the guidance of the coachman ¡­ Paving.


    Amongst the many bustling shops, it could be said that the whole place had turned into a mess of ashes and ruins. This time, it made Xi Jiu Er furious. Old Madame, you have truly done it. She even burned down the entire shop for her. It would at least cost her a thousand taels of silver to rebuild and repair ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er walked into the store with a cold expression and stood there with her hands behind her back. She did not seem happy or sad, and asked: "Where is the owner of this shop?"


    "This servant knows, this servant will bring you to the Miss now." The carriage driver seemed to know quite a lot, Xi Jiu Er laughed, the kung fu that the Old Madame does is awesome! "Hmph ¡­" Today, let''s see how she will deal with this dog! She didn''t need to think to know that the subordinates that the mother had trusted before were already with the Old Madame, working together in a shameful situation.


    The wagon driver actively brought Xi Jiu Er to a cold house! That''s right, it was a cold house. It could be described as a very dilapidated little courtyard with four walls. Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, the carriage driver shouted, "Big Brother Xu, Big Brother Xu!"


    Not long later, a middle-aged man dressed in coarse azure clothes came out as he shouted, "Who is it? Who is it?" When they saw something flash past the eyes of Xi Jiu Er and the others, although they were quick, they were caught red-handed by Xi Jiu Er.


    "You are ¡­" Lao Xu looked at Xi Jiu Er with suspicion, pretending not to know anything as he asked, "Why are you looking for me?"


    "This is Ninth Miss of the Xi Family. Today, Miss Xi has come to visit Pu Zi." The coachman was taller than Xi Jiu Er, so he stood in front of Xi Jiu Er and gave him a signal with his eyes. Lao Xu sent him a signal with his eyes saying that he had received the coachman and knew what to do.


    Hehe, Ninth Miss, this servant will go feed the horses. It''s right in front of us. The driver scratched his head and revealed a kind smile towards Wang Ma. This kind of smile was the fake one, the one that could deceive people the most, and the one that was the most poisonous.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded: "Go." Since there was no coachman, she was able to do what she needed to do next. Once the coachman left, she walked into the courtyard with her hands behind her back.


    "Miss, Miss ¡­" Lao Xu seemed to be scared stiff as she stuttered, not knowing what to say. She followed behind Xi Jiu Er uneasily, looking at all the places she was looking at with contempt in her heart. She was just a yellow haired girl, what was there to be wary of? Lao Xu did not even put the thirteen or fourteen year old Xi Jiu Er in her eyes at all.


    "I heard that this shop earns a lot of money. Why does Uncle Xu live in such a crappy place?" Xi Jiu Er pretended not to understand and asked as she entered the house.


    Lao Xu hurriedly followed, and when Xi Jiu Er sat down, he immediately kneeled down, blaming herself and feeling ashamed. His face had a look of wishing that she could burrow his face into the ground, and he stuttered as if it was difficult to open her mouth: "Ninth, Ninth Miss ¡­ Old Slave... This old servant has a guilty conscience, it''s this old servant who doesn''t have the ability ¡­ "For so many years, this old servant did not have the ability to help. I''ve already lost a lot of face ¡­"


    "Oh? Is that so? Back then, when mother chose the Uncle Xu, he definitely had to have been an outstanding individual. " Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly and let Lao Xu take out the account book to see for himself.


    "Ninth Miss... The shop had been burnt, everything inside had been burnt away without a trace. Fortunately, the old servant had brought along a recent account book ¡­ This old servant here will give it to Miss. " Lao Xu got up and entered the room, but just as he went in, he came out and laughed: Haha, old man, your memory is no longer good ¡­ He went into the house across the street.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at him nonchalantly, not knowing why Lao Xu felt as if he was entangled by something, the other party''s eyes were simply too sharp, as though he could see through everything, causing him to be unable to hide anywhere. Haha, how could that be possible? Even if a person had changed, it would still be difficult to change their personality in a short period of time. Lao Xu didn''t take it to heart at all, and felt that he was overthinking it.


    What do you mean young? This house is obviously not his. Look at the middle-aged woman''s dress, and the woman''s shoes, and the child''s sandals. Although they were all hidden very well, she still found them all. Not only did Xi Jiu Er notice it, ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui also noticed it ¡­ Why would he do that? She must be hiding something.


    In a moment, Lao Xu found the account book, and Xi Jiu Er immediately threw it to ex-sister-in-law, who opened it and looked at it seriously. It didn''t take long for him to know that the account book had been rushed out in the last few days. The ink in the account book was still very fresh, even the paper in the account book was new.


    This was an account book that was almost a month old. ex-sister-in-law had only opened it to calculate a few chapters before she gave it to Xi Jiu Er.


    "Ninth Miss, judging from this account book, I only earned fifty silver taels ¡­" Fifty silver a month was still the Xi Family''s store, and it was still located in the most bustling area. This group of people, even if they were being overly greedy, were actually given only fifty silver. The paving is the best and most valuable part of the lot...


    Xi Jiu Er actually laughed. Fifty gold, was the old Madame trying to get rid of the beggar, or did she think that she was an idiot being played around? Her smile was very cold. She didn''t need to guess to know that she was angry. This was within Lao Xu''s expectations. Actually, according to the old Madame''s words, she wanted to give her two hundred silver, but he felt that she could be a bit greedy, so she sent a hundred and fifty silver into her pocket unscrupulously. In any case, he had already thought of an excuse.


    "Miss, it was this old servant who was useless, it was this old servant who failed to live up to Madame''s trust ¡­" Lao Xu blamed herself: "Actually, our business was quite good before, but gradually, no one was willing to buy our things. They said that our things were too old ¡­ It is precisely during this one or two years that we have been losing money. Servant, this servant has truly tried her best. " In any case, he would leave all the money she earned to ''Xi Hong Sheng''. If Xi Jiu Er did not have anything, then her job would be to guard the shop well, but she had no other choice if the business was not good, right?

 C40

    Seeing Lao Xu''s self-reproach that almost made him cry, Xi Jiu Er almost couldn''t hold back his laughter. The other party''s face looked as though it was about to cramp up, making him feel amused. Not only did Xi Jiu Er feel that it was funny, even ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui felt that it was funny.


    "Miss... This old servant has let down the Madame, I have let down the Madame ¡­ " Lao Xu had thought that there was something special about the ex-sister-in-law, but it seems that it was only at this level. He did not put anyone in his eyes at all.


    Xi Jiu Er sighed to herself, as if she was responding to her, and said slowly: "Sigh, this cannot be blamed on Uncle Uncle Xu, Uncle Uncle Xu has also suffered greatly during these past ten years, not mentioning the contributions. He works so diligently for our Xi Family, I think the spirit of mother in heaven will not blame you, he is the most merciful person here."


    Xi Jiu Er walked forward and slowly helped him up. She looked at the dilapidated house with a sorrowful expression, as if she was living in this dilapidated house herself. "Uncle Xu, you live in such a house? "Do you want to..."


    "No need, no need. My nephew will be back soon. I''ll stay with them when the time comes ¡­" Lao Xu waved his hands to express his disagreement. It was a joke, he was too clear about what Xi Jiu Er wanted to say, he would not stay with Xi Jiu Er, he had his own good days to live. However, it was a pity that he had to take the shop back. How much money did he lose? Just thinking about it made his heart ache.


    Xi Jiu Er took in the entirety of his expression. Humanity was always like this, in the end, Lao Xu had only considered how she could make herself benefit the most, she had never considered that this thing was not her own.


    "Is that so? Then forget it." Nephew? The ex-sister-in-law said that Lao Xu had adopted a child because that child wasn''t good enough and was raised in the countryside. From the looks of it, he probably saved it up for his son. Lao Xu was not young anymore, he was old, and there were not many years left to live.


    "Thank you Miss for your kind intentions." Lao Xu acted like he was extremely grateful. It had to be said that Lao Xu''s acting skills had already reached the point of being pure gold. If it wasn''t for that, how could he have entered the city? When you see someone speaking, that person just wants the merchant to do the same.


    "Liu Xiang, Liu Shui, let''s go. Uncle Uncle Xu, we''ll come back another day!" Xi Jiu Er said somewhat reluctantly towards Lao Xu. After the three of them walked out of the room, Xi Jiu Er''s face darkened and became as deep as water: "Liu Shui, watch him closely, follow him, see where he went. ex-sister-in-law and I are in the teahouse we were looking at.


    "Yes." Liu Shui nodded and hid himself.


    Xi Jiu Er brought ex-sister-in-law out of the small alley and the coachman seemed to have already been waiting for a long time. Observing Xi Jiu Er''s expression, she discovered that she wasn''t dead, which also made him happy, but she didn''t see Liu Shui: "Ninth Miss, where''s Miss Liu Shui?"


    "She ¡­ I sent her away." Anger flashed across Xi Jiu Er''s face.


    The coachman thought that Xi Jiu Er was still fuming because of the matter regarding the shop, so when Liu Shui tried to vent his anger, he stopped asking, and asked: "Ninth Miss, are we going back?"


    "You can go back. I''ll take ex-sister-in-law out for a stroll. I''m feeling very bored right now." With that, she brought ex-sister-in-law to the teahouse on the other side. The coachman stood there and thought for a bit, then brought the carriage back to report.


    "Miss, the carriage driver has left." ex-sister-in-law looked at the second floor and saw that the carriage driver had left. Lao Xu also came out from his house, he saw that the carriage of Xi Mansion had gone far away with a lively expression, he proudly waved his hands behind his back and walked in the opposite direction, with Liu Shui following him.


    "Miss, Lao Xu has left. Liu Shui will follow her." The ex-sister-in-law lowered his body and sat down. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, "En", this teahouse business is very good, everyone is talking about which shop''s business is very good, which shop''s price is cheap, which shop''s items are good, etc.


    "Have you guys heard about the Lifestyle? It''s the shop of the Xi Family on the south road. Now, it''s opened as a pharmacy, and they''re all buying expensive things! A while ago, I heard that the headache-inducing disease that had plagued the Meng Family Madame for so many years had actually healed after taking their medicine! "


    "Aiya, I''ve heard about it too. I heard that the medicinal ingredients are so expensive that it makes people speechless."


    "What do you know? Those are all expensive medicines. There are some medicines that even if you have money, you might not be able to buy them!"


    "Exactly! "You might not be able to buy it with silver taels ¡­"


    "I''m also in the medicinal herb business ¡­" I wonder what kind of path the Xi Family is taking, to actually have obtained this path ¡­ "


    "That''s right. Such a good opportunity to get rich is truly a waste."


    "Sigh ¡­"


    Everyone talked at once, causing Xi Jiu Er to frown. It seemed like everyone was thinking of her shop, and she had to think of a way to turn this shop into her own underground shop! The people of the Xi Family are heartless and greedy, see, before long, the people of the Xi Family will have plans for my shop, heh!


    "Miss!" Liu Shui went up the tea house and quickly walked over. Xi Jiu Er gave her a cup of tea: "Drink it."


    "Let''s go." Xi Jiu Er stood up, ex-sister-in-law put down the silver and left.


    Under Liu Shui''s lead, they arrived at a large courtyard. If they wanted to buy this courtyard, it would at least cost them tens of thousands of gold. Xi Jiu Er''s smile grew wider and wider: "Let''s go!"


    "Bang, bang, bang!" ex-sister-in-law knocked on the door, and before long, a servant opened it. The servant then asked, "Miss, who are you looking for?"


    Xi Jiu Er immediately flung him off and walked in with large strides, the servant immediately shouted out: "Hey, who are you, you don''t even know who you are, and you''re trespassing into this house. Be careful I''m reporting you in."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed without turning her head: "Reporting to the officials, wow, reporting!"


    "You, you stop." The servant had a bad feeling and immediately went to block Xi Jiu Er''s shouts: "You are not allowed to enter, I am reporting it to the officials!"


    But he was actually scared by Xi Jiu Er''s dark expression. It was too scary, as though as long as he could block her way again, he would definitely not be able to eat anything. He trembled in fear and couldn''t help but take a step back. It was no wonder this servant didn''t have any confidence. He only set up the steward of the house because he was on good terms with Lao Xu, so he said that the steward should be the one who took care of things if it sounded better. What was so unpleasant about that was when he used the name of a steward to do the work of a servant.


    "Scram!" Xi Jiu Er turned her head and asked: "Where is Lao Xu? "How do we get there?"


    "¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er stood at the door, and heard the teasing voices of men and women inside. Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Shui, and Liu Shui stepped forward and kicked the door open, scaring everyone inside the house.


    "Who is it? Who dares to be so bold?!" Lao Xu asked in a flustered and exasperated tone, "Ah, little Miss..." When he saw Xi Jiu Er and the others at the door, he seemed to have seen a ghost.


    "Hello, Uncle Xu." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "We meet again."


    The woman beside him covered her quilt as she noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere. She did not dare to speak up! Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I''m waiting outside for Uncle Uncle Xu!"


    With that, Xi Jiu Er brought ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui and quietly left, leaving behind the dumbstruck and panicking Lao Xu. Her mind was filled with these thoughts, "What should I do? What should she do? Being discovered, they must have been discovered, or else they wouldn''t have come here. The people from before and now were two completely different people ¡­ How did she find me here? Or did she follow me? "


    Lao Xu was panicking. He started to think of a way out, a way to get out of his situation, and how to get out of it. After thinking about it for a while, she felt relieved. In any case, she bought this house herself and did the right thing. No!


    Lao Xu felt that since he had already dealt with all the evidence, he had nothing to fear, and became more confident. After putting on his clothes, he tidied himself up and walked out.


    Xi Jiu Er stood under the tree in the courtyard with his hands behind her back. She waited for Lao Xu to clasp his hands in salute before she slowly turned around, "Uncle Uncle Xu, I am a little confused about the accounts, I hope you can tell me."


    "AHH!" Lao Xu didn''t even have time to react, the situation didn''t seem to develop in this way! Lao Xu said in a daze: "Ledger, Ledger..." What happened to the books? "


    "Hehe, there''s something wrong with the account book. ex-sister-in-law, tell Uncle Uncle Xu what you think is wrong." Xi Jiu Er turned and said to the ex-sister-in-law.


    ex-sister-in-law was slightly taken aback: "Ah? "Oh." It was obvious that ex-sister-in-law did not expect Xi Jiu Er to ask such a question, so she opened the account book and said: "It seems like this account is correct, but there is something wrong with it."


    "Please explain it in detail, ex-sister-in-law." Lao Xu felt that he was overthinking it. Was he really here to get the books?


    was shocked. This account book was made by himself, he felt that he wouldn''t be able to find any loopholes, because he had been a shopkeeper for more than twenty years. He didn''t expect this woman to be so capable, to think that she had found fault.


    "Uncle Xu, although this account for expenditure is correct, but if I add it up, where is the other one hundred silver?" ex-sister-in-law asked indifferently.


    "This... I think I missed a chance, "Lao Xu thought that since he could solve the problem with 100 gold, he could just lose another 100 silver. It was nothing! Thus, he hurriedly said, "It''s all this old servant''s fault. I will pay the hundred silver taels to Miss as compensation. I hope that Miss will not be angry. It''s this old servant''s negligence. " He immediately apologized with sincerity, causing Xi Jiu Er to smile in satisfaction. He then heaved a sigh of relief.

 C41

    "Uncle Xu, do you make this kind of mistake often? A hundred taels of silver, hehehe ¡­ If you get one hundred silvers out of every month, then it will be one thousand and two hundred silvers out of every year. Xi Jiu Er slowly said as she looked down at the apologizing Lao Xu and asked, "Uncle Xu, does this courtyard belong to you?"


    Lao Xu had already thought of an excuse and said: "Hehehe, my nephew''s courtyard. We are all surnamed Xu."


    "So that''s how it is, it caused me to misunderstand why the money from the Uncle Xu''s Greedy Ink Store was used to buy the house. "Ai, why do you insist on staying in your own shabby house?"


    Xi Jiu Er did not linger in front of him, and this made Lao Xu heave a sigh of relief, and she laughed: "After all, this is my nephew''s courtyard, so it''s not appropriate for me to stay here, it''s just that I occasionally come over to help him take a look at the courtyard." He then mentioned his attire: "This servant does not want others to see that I am dressed like this."


    "Hehe, that''s true!" Xi Jiu Er smiled as if she understood what she meant, extended her hand and said: "Then, Uncle Xu, please give me the wrong silver taels."


    "..." Good, good! "Old servant, old servant will go get some silver now." Lao Xu immediately returned to his senses and nodded his head to go back to his room to get the silver. Although he was reluctant to part with a hundred gold, he did not want to waste Xi Jiu Er''s time again. Looking at the silver bills in his hands, Lao Xu felt so much pain that blood was dripping from his body.


    "Ninth Miss, here is one hundred silver." Lao Xu handed the silver over to Xi Jiu Er and asked in shock: "Uncle Xu, what are you giving me a hundred silver for?"


    Lao Xu was puzzled, "Isn''t it a hundred taels?" Wasn''t he wrong by a hundred silver taels?


    "Ai, how could it be 100 taels of silver?" Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were wide open as she blinked, "Uncle Xu, you must have remembered wrongly. What I just said was not 100 taels ¡­"


    Not a hundred silver? How much is that? Lao Xu carefully thought back to what Xi Jiu Er had said, then suddenly came up with an idea that caused her to tremble with fear. She couldn''t be talking about it, could she be talking about one thousand and two hundred gold! Of course, he wasn''t stupid enough to ask.


    "Hehe, Miss doesn''t need to test this old servant. What Miss said just now was a hundred liang." Lao Xu laughed.


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head: "Uncle Xu, you are really too old to be doing this, don''t you know how to settle this little debt you have as a shopkeeper?"


    To Lao Xu, this was definitely an insult, an absolutely insult. Lao Xu had been a shopkeeper for more than twenty years, yet was looked down upon by a three or four-year-old girl. Lao Xu''s face flushed red as he chuckled, "Could it be that Miss is talking about one thousand and two hundred silver?"


    Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows and did not say a word. She thought that she had tacitly acknowledged it, gritted her teeth and turned to go get the 1200 silver. Damn, his flesh hurts so much! Halfway there, he suddenly thought, that can''t be right! He should plead, how could she have more than 1000 taels? Was he still in that shitty house with a thousand taels of silver? What a joke.


    "Miss, this old servant really doesn''t have that much silver." Lao Xu rolled over and kneeled down, planning to cry for a while. After all, his face wasn''t even as important as his silver taels.


    "Miss ¡­" Just as he was about to say something, Xi Jiu Er decided: "It''s best if you and I can settle this matter properly. I won''t be looking for you anymore."


    Xi Jiu Er was the direct descendant of the Xi Family, so it was definitely difficult to find him. Although the Xi Family didn''t say that it was big or small, it was easy to get someone, a famous sect. He started to calculate, if she lost her use, would First Lady kill him to keep her mouth shut? If Miss Xi knew that she was greedy, how would she punish him?


    After thinking it over, he decided to just give her the one thousand two hundred taels! When the time came, he would tell them that he took it from his nephew. Lao Xu thought this way, but he still had to do it. He stuttered: "Then, then this old servant can only take it from nephew''s side ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly: "Where you go and take it has nothing to do with me."


    Uh, Lao Xu froze on the spot, and in the end, could only count out 1200 taels of silver from his own box. He touched the notes again and again, and felt it, it was as painful as cutting meat.


    But ¡ª ¡ª When he gave one thousand and two hundred silver to Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er basically did not have any intention of taking it, and still had the "you foolishness" expression on his face. This finally made Lao Xu unable to sit still, what exactly did this mean? Just say it directly, his expression couldn''t hang on any longer ¡­


    "ex-sister-in-law, tell Lao Xu how much should he give!" Xi Jiu Er said.


    ex-sister-in-law coughed and replied sternly, "Uncle Xu, you get 1200 taels of silver a year, and you get 15600 taels of silver every thirteen years."


    "What?" Lao Xu was immediately struck dumb. He sat on the ground, fifteen hundred and six hundred gold? He doesn''t have a problem with the back of his ears, does he? He stared at Xi Jiu Er and realised that she did not have any intention to joke around, so he forced a smile: "Ninth Miss, are you playing with this old servant?"


    Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "Take those six hundred silvers away and treat it as fifteen thousand." Pausing for a moment, she enunciated each word slowly, "Uncle Xu, I have already calculated the minimum amount for you. "Isn''t it?"


    "Miss ¡­" Lao Xu squeezed out a few words with difficulty. His face was very white, very white. Only now did he realize that the other party was simply making trouble for him. "This old servant doesn''t have fifteen thousand taels."


    "No?" Hehe ¡­ You can let your nephew''s courtyard to be pawned for me. Hmm, ex-sister-in-law, how much do you think the courtyard is worth? " Xi Jiu Er turned her head left and right to look at the house.


    ex-sister-in-law was also cooperating very well as she said in a serious tone, "Miss, I estimate that this one is only worth two thousand silver taels ¡­"


    Lao Xu was astonished. This ex-sister-in-law was really capable, it was indeed worth two thousand gold. She had been too careless, too careless! Lao Xu felt that he would never be able to turn around this time. Forever.


    "What? Only two thousand gold?" That was still thirteen thousand taels! Uncle Xu, go and get the thirteen thousand and two hundred yuan. Once it''s finished, I''ll leave immediately! " The way they attacked was probably just waiting for them to get their hands on the silver, calmly looking at the ashen faced Lao Xu, he said indifferently.


    Lao Xu shook his head. He wouldn''t give him so much even if he was beaten to death.


    "Ninth Miss, you must be joking ¡­" Lao Xu said stiffly: "This old servant can''t earn that much in my lifetime."


    Xi Jiu Er said meaningfully, "Is that so? Only you know how much you have earned, the heaven knows the earth, the earth knows the world, and perhaps there are others who know but not necessarily! Uncle Xu trusted you so he gave the shop to you to take care of, but you yourself are clear on what you have to do.


    "Miss, you!" She must have known something, she must have, or else she wouldn''t have said that about him. Just as heaven knows earth knows everything, there is no wall without wind in the world. They were both in the Xi Family, so the Miss must have found out ¡­


    "Lao Xu, if you give me 13,000 gold today, I will definitely not have anything to do with you. I will just pretend to be stupid, if you let Old Madame know what I already know, what the consequences will be? What she cares about the most is reputation, don''t think that this woman doesn''t know anything, my mother is also very afraid of her! " Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Lao Xu felt that the girl in front of him was not simple, she was not simple at all! The people of Xi Family felt that the girl in front of them was foolish, easy to deceive, now it seemed like they were all wrong, the stupid one was them, they were played around and did not know anything!


    Since he already knew, Lao Xu didn''t try to act. He said calmly: "Miss, this old servant really doesn''t have that much ¡­"


    "Uncle Xu, I''m giving you one last chance. You didn''t want it." Xi Jiu Er was still trying on her clothes and gave a slight smile, but it actually became colder by a bit. She gave Lao Xu a last chance, when a person does not commit suicide, they would not die, when the mother dies, Lao Xu alone persevered for so many years, and it was not something with a cruel heart, even if it was just to show him a little kindness. Unfortunately, he was still playing tricks on her in the end, so she couldn''t accept it.


    "ex-sister-in-law, let''s go." Xi Jiu Er shouted and turned to leave, not hesitating at all. It was clear that she did not care about the thirteen thousand silver. Suddenly, Lao Xu thought of something. The shop on the southern road seemed to also belong to the Ninth Miss ¡­ He heard from the Xi Family that they were even fighting over this shop.


    He heard that the store was extremely profitable and was a medicinal herb shop.


    Lao Xu suddenly said: "Ninth Miss, please wait."


    Xi Jiu Er continued to walk forward without even turning her head around, even the ex-sister-in-law followed along. The silver Miss did not even take it to heart, she just made an end to it in the past.


    "Miss... This old servant will give it to you, this old servant will give it to you. " Lao Xu''s eyes flashed, "Thirteen thousand, this old servant will give it to you right away."


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er turned and stood in her original position, then quickly stood up to look for silver. He plans to link us with that Xi Jiu Er line and do things under him. That way, he will definitely benefit greatly from it! " He began to calculate. Thirteen thousand taels of silver, he would use this to earn even more!


    "Ninth Miss." Although Lao Xu felt heartache, he decided to tolerate Xiang Ze''s long-range plan.


    ex-sister-in-law went forward and roughly looked at the silver and kept it, then nodded at Xi Jiu Er. This made Lao Xu extremely sure that Xi Jiu Er didn''t even look at these ten thousand taels. What did this mean? This meant that the other party had silver taels!


    "Miss, that old servant will hand the room contract over to you another day." Lao Xu had already made arrangements, and his thoughts were working. Compared to Lao Xu, who was previously like a different person, Xi Jiu Er nodded: "Sure."


    On the way back, ex-sister-in-law said, "Miss, this Lao Xu is too restless."


    "No, but the more restless he is, the more helpful he will be to me." Xi Jiu Er laughed faintly. ex-sister-in-law seemed to have a plan in her mind, but instead asked: "Miss, if we were to open another medicine store here, I''m afraid it won''t be appropriate." People of the Xi Family would definitely think of a way to get those who get jealous. She had already seen through the true appearance of the group of people from Xi Family.


    "Give the heart-nourishing hall an order, tell him to continue working since Lao Xu is here ¡­" "Let him do some odd jobs ¡­" Xi Jiu Er instructed ex-sister-in-law.

 C42

    When Xi Jiu Er returned to her residence, she heard that the old Madame was not feeling well and was asking for a doctor ¡­ Xi Jiu Er and ex-sister-in-law looked at each other and a smile flashed past their eyes.


    "Miss, an invitation from Miss Yun." The servant girl in the yard brought over an exquisite card with the word ''Yun'' written on it. Xi Jiu Er''s playful smile involuntarily surfaced in his mind. With his straightforward personality, he never thought that he would only have one friend in his entire life.


    It roughly stated that Yun Qing Ran missed Xi Jiu Er, and hoped that she would be able to come to the manor to visit him. The appointed time was tomorrow morning, and the time was somewhat hurried. Xi Jiu Er had not been back for long, and since she did not know what the various managers in Yun Family liked, he asked the ex-sister-in-law to find out about it so that she could present him with gifts.


    With such a fiery red medicine store protecting her, she was still the wealthiest Miss in the household. The servants were all busy trying to curry favor with her.


    Arriving at the First Lady''s place, Xi Jiu Er took out the invitation and showed it to the First Lady. The First Lady roughly scanned through the place and felt very upset, she just did not understand why her daughter was like the Great Miss and thought she was enemies, and that there was always something wrong. The Yun Family was a truly prestigious clan, not something that her Beiping Wang family could compare to. This girl really did not understand the rules.


    "Since Miss Yun has invited you, you should attend the feast properly. Don''t be rude and let the people of Yun Family watch a joke, understand?" The First Lady said indifferently: "If you need anything, just tell me. Alright, if I''m tired, you can leave."


    When Xi Wan Rong heard this, his mouth curled into a disdainful sneer: "As expected of the same hill, they aren''t even good stuff."


    Xi Wan Feng pursed her lips and did not say anything. She realized that as long as she was together with her foolish sister, she would definitely implicate her, but what if she was not together with her? Yun Family... She wanted to go as well. As long as she stayed with these large clans, her reputation would only grow.


    "Hmph, just looking at Yun Qing Ran makes me feel disgusted. For a dignified Yun Family to actually make himself into the role of a princess, it is as if he thinks himself to be extraordinary. "Hmph, pui!" Xi Wan Rong was not a normal type of person who hated Yun Qing Ran, that was extremely annoying.


    Xi Wan Feng was finally unable to endure anymore. She abruptly stood up, and amidst everyone''s astonished questions, she slowly said: "I''m feeling a bit uncomfortable. Little Sister, I''ll be going first."


    "Right." Xi Wan Rong only replied coldly. To Xi Wan Feng, this was like a thorn in his side, and she genuinely and sincerely cared for her little sister. However, this little sister didn''t seem to take her sister seriously. Taking a deep breath, Xi Wan Feng brought the servant back to the courtyard, and tossed and turned throughout the night.


    On the second day, Xi Jiu Er packed enough to bring Liu Xiang and Liu Shui to the Miss Yun Palace. The carriage only arrived after an hour, the Miss Yun had already made the servants wait at the entrance.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that it was Yun Qing Ran''s servant, Tian Xiang. Seeing her cute smile, Xi Jiu Er also smiled and followed her to Yun Qing Ran''s courtyard. The Yun Family was extremely imposing, it was not something that a door like the Xi Family could compare to. Just when Xi Jiu Er thought she was going to faint, she finally arrived at Yun Qing Ran''s courtyard.


    Surprisingly, Yun Qing Ran''s courtyard was not filled with all sorts of herbs like the other Miss s. Unless one had a stone table, and a rocking chair, there would be nothing left ¡­ At first glance, it didn''t seem like a woman''s courtyard at all. Xi Jiu Er liked Yun Qing Ran one more time.


    When they were walking over, Xi Jiu Er saw two servants standing at the door with serious expressions, she guessed that Yun Qing Ran had not listened to them and had been grounded.


    As soon as Yun Qing Ran heard movement in the courtyard, she immediately walked out and said happily: "Jiu Er, you''re here." Yun Qing Ran''s complexion was not good, at the moment she was smiling, it was a genuine smile from the bottom of her heart.


    "Yeah, I''m coming." Xi Jiu Er grinned.


    "Come in and sit. I don''t know what you like to eat so I''ve prepared more. Take a look ¡­" Yun Qing Ran pulled Xi Jiu Er inside the house and pointed to the dim sum on the table as she smiled. On the table, there were green bean cake, red bean cake, cinnamon cake etc ¡­ There were even some pastries that Xi Jiu Er could not call out. Seeing that everyone was dazzled, she could not help but want to try it.


    "Men, prepare some water for Miss Xia." Yun Qing Ran instructed.


    Immediately, a servant came over with clear water for Xi Jiu Er to wash his hands, and Xi Jiu Er immediately used her hands to taste the pastry. Un, the taste was quite good! It tastes delicious.


    "Here, you have some too." Yun Qing Ran said to Liu Xiang.


    Liu Xiang shook her head fiercely. "Servant does not dare, Servant does not dare ¡­"


    Unknowingly, when Xi Jiu Er saw Yun Qing Ran treating his servants like this, she had nothing to say about her loving him, so she laughed: "If I let you eat, then eat, if you go against Master, then I will beat you up." Xi Jiu Er spoke truthfully and falsely.


    Yun Qing Ran also said: "That''s right, if you don''t listen to my words, I will smash your board. This is also your Miss''s intention."


    Liu Xiang felt that she had become the target of the two Miss''s ridicule, and her small face flushed red and was conflicted: "Then, then I''ll eat the Servant!" She was a servant, so even with the lord''s approval, she didn''t dare to be impudent. She just ate a few bites and stopped eating. From the satisfied expression on her face, one could imagine how delicious the pastries were.


    Xi Jiu Er waved her hands while eating: "If you don''t want to eat, I won''t, I''m still waiting for your big meal, I can''t let you get lucky after eating my fill."


    "Hahahaha ¡­" Yun Qing Ran was startled for a moment, then burst out laughing: "Xi Jiu Er, you, you''re too funny."


    "Really?" I''m just speaking the truth! " Xi Jiu Er shrugged her shoulders and laughed.


    "That''s right, I like your personality. You''re much more lovable than those genius Miss s." Yun Qing Ran laughed: "I can''t help but have a similar feeling about you."


    Yun Qing Ran waved to the servants to withdraw, and then brought Liu Xiang to the residence for a walk. sized Xi Jiu Er up: Not bad, I thought that you went to the manor and experienced some hardships, seems like you did not suffer much, I am happy.


    Xi Jiu Er was slightly moved in her heart, and laughed: "How about you? I see that there are two people standing at the entrance to your courtyard... Are you grounded? "


    Yun Qing Ran grinned: "Isn''t it?" Although she had a smile on her face, she looked forced. Her eyes were filled with bitterness, as though there was something she was wronged about, Yun Qing Ran was not someone that Xi Jiu Er knew.


    "Did something happen?" Xi Jiu Er asked softly: "Is there anything that can help you?"


    Yun Qing Ran said bitterly: "My Grandmother didn''t even like me because I''m quick, but because I won''t please her, she likes my little sister, Yun Qing. A few days ago, I personally made her chicken soup, and when she ate it, I fainted.


    Yun Qing Ran continued to speak bitterly: "When I first posted that to you, they all said that you wouldn''t come because a woman like me simply couldn''t find friends with you." Yun Qing Ran laughed at herself.


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, and actually laughed. Whatever you do with them, your friends are no match for them. "


    Yun Qing Ran was momentarily stunned before reacting, her gloomy mood was swept away. "Hahaha, you''re indirectly destroying yourself, aren''t you?"


    "Of course." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Let''s go, I''ll bring you out."


    "Get out?" Yun Qing Ran was startled: "Go out of the house or out of the courtyard?"


    "Of course, I''m going out of the courtyard. If there''s anything I can take responsibility for, I''ll carry it." Xi Jiu Er did not pay much attention, as she pulled her by the hand and slowly walked out of the courtyard under the watch of the guards.


    "Miss ¡­" Xi Jiu Er slowly raised her head and gave the little person a slight smile. The little person didn''t know what to say as he said in a daze, "If you go out like this ¡­"


    "Hehe, then let your master punish you severely." Xi Jiu Er didn''t mind at all. She could tell that the servants in her courtyard didn''t really have much respect for Yun Qing Ran, either because Yun Qing Ran was not favoured, or because Yun Qing Ran was too good. Don''t look at how stubborn she was, she was sharp tongued.


    The two servants stood side by side, looking at Xi Jiu Er and wondering which family''s servant she was actually from.


    "Let''s go see the old Madame." Xi Jiu Er held Yun Qing Ran''s hand, and realized that Yun Qing Ran was not just standing there. She turned her head and told Yun Qing Ran one word at a time: "Remember your identity, you are the direct descendant of the Yun Family, no matter how pleasing your sister''s concubine is, she will always be a concubine, and will never be able to change that in her entire life. Yun Qing Ran, you are Yun Qing Ran ¡­ the Yun Qing Ran that I knew. "


    Yun Qing Ran felt her entire body tremble, the mother had also said the same thing to her before, but she was initially disdainful of arguing with Yun Qing over and over again, so she kept on retreating.


    "Jiu Er..."


    "Eh?"


    "Are you going to be my good friend for life?"


    "..." "Alright!"


    When they arrived at the courtyard of the old Madame, the maids were obviously shocked. The laughter of the old Madame and a young girl could be heard from inside the house.


    The servant looked at Xi Jiu Er, she had an elegant demeanor like a graceful pink lotus, the smile on her lips just happened to be there, it looked like there was an imposing aura about her that did not dare be looked down upon. The servant girl came out after a while. She bowed and lifted the curtain, saying, "Old Madame, let the two Miss s in."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. Yun Qing Ran then brought Xi Jiu Er to Old Madame''s courtyard. Old Madame''s courtyard wasn''t as simple and elegant as the others'' courtyard. Instead, it was extremely luxurious. When she entered the room, she saw an old Madame with beautiful clothes sitting high up in the room. There was even a young girl sitting in front of her, who should be a few years younger than Yun Qing Ran. She was similarly gorgeous, and looked even older than Yun Qing Ran. Probably to curry favor with the old Madame.

 C43

    After Yun Qing Ran introduced the both of them, Xi Jiu Er made the rules to greet the people of Yun Lao Fu''s side. Naturally, Yun Lao Fu would look down on the Xi Family, this family which was far inferior to them, so he looked at them with contempt.


    However, Xi Jiu Er did not seem to care at all. She acted in a dignified and proper manner without noticing anything amiss, and said with a smile: "Yun Lao Fu has seen the most luxurious courtyard, and it is also the most beautiful courtyard."


    Yun Lao Fu immediately revealed a smug look. Of course, all the antiques were worth thousands of gold coins. How could this little Xi Family compare to him? Yun Lao Fu said indifferently. It was obvious that he did not want to speak much with Xi Jiu Er, and even Yun Qing did not say much.


    "I heard that Yun Lao Fu has his own views on jade. Jiu Er stayed for a while longer to see a jade bracelet, so I invited Old Madame to take a look at it for me. It is my honor." Xi Jiu Er extended his hands out, and Liu Xiang took out a small box from his bag, which he handed over to Yun Lao Fu with both hands.


    Yun Lao Fu took it out and casually looked at it, then said: "This is just ordinary jade, it is a little bit better." Even a fool would be able to understand the disdain in his mouth. Xi Jiu Er took it and chuckled.


    "Really?" Jiu Er said that this bracelet was a ''Purple Jade Dragon'' bracelet, but Jiu Er spent a lot of money to buy it, could it be fake? Sigh, since it''s like this, I''ll give it to Qing Ran. Qing Ran, take it. Without saying a word, Xi Jiu Er put the bracelet on Yun Qing Ran''s wrist.


    Purple Jade Dragon Bracelet? He couldn''t! The purple jade dragon bracelet was a top-grade emerald. It looked purple under the sunlight, shaped like a flood dragon like flowing clouds. Therefore, it was called the ''Purple Jade Dragon''. Once the bracelet was worn on the wrist, it couldn''t be removed unless it was chopped off.


    Old Madame would never believe that someone like Xi Jiu Er would encounter a purple jade dragon bracelet, much less believe that this bracelet was actually a purple jade dragon. She wouldn''t want that crap.


    Yun Qing Ran was startled: "How could I dislike that?" She always felt that Xi Jiu Er was weird, even if it wasn''t worth much and she just sat there like that, she wouldn''t mind it in the slightest. As long as Xi Jiu Er gave her something, she would still like it.


    "How strange. After wearing it, I actually feel a warm current flowing inside ¡­" Yun Xiran suddenly let out a surprised cry, as if she had discovered something mystical, and cried out somewhat incredulously.


    Yun Qing Ran lifted up the bracelet to take a look. The bracelet had a purple sheen to it, the light had formed a dragon-like shape on the bracelet, causing her to exclaim in surprise, "Oh my god, it''s actually purple ¡­"


    Yun Lao Fu immediately sat up straight, his chaotic eyes flashing with light: "Really? Quick, take it off, let me see, let me see. " It was obvious that she couldn''t wait to see if it was true or not.


    Yun Qing Ran was startled, she immediately planned to take off the bracelet, but it was useless. Xi Jiu Er pressed her hand down, and looked at the old Madame coldly: "For people of Yun Lao Fu, regardless if this bracelet is a purple jade dragon or not, it is already unimportant, and I had originally wanted to give it to her, but since she doesn''t like Yun Lao Fu, Jiu Er also felt that it was a fake for big sister Qing Ran, so what if it is?"


    Yun Lao Fu secretly gritted his teeth as he regretted it so much that his heart almost turned green. He saw that the situation really was Zi Yu Long, he could only blame himself for not taking a serious look, but who would have thought that it would actually be Zi Yu Long?


    Xi Jiu Er faintly smiled as she looked at Yun Lao Fu''s twisted face of regret. "I''m sorry, Old Madame, I also brought a gift for him, so I won''t disturb him any longer."


    "..." "Go ¡­" Yun Lao Fu could only mutter out loud, but she couldn''t say anything. That tangled intestines made her stomach hurt so much, she almost cried as she watched Yun Qing Ran take the bracelet and leave.


    "My bracelet!" Yun Lao Fu could not help but cover his chest and say: "My bracelet is gone just like that."


    Yun Qing had always had a way to make Yun Lao Fu happy, but after thinking for a while, she thought of a way: "Grandmother, my granddaughter has a way, whether or not Grandmother listens?"


    "Speak, you are the one with the most evil ideas. If you get me that bracelet, I will give you the chain that you want from the Grandmother." Yun Lao Fu was not angry, there were always ideas, but this granddaughter had an idea. She might even be able to get the bracelet back, and the chain was also very good. Compared to Zi Yu Long''s bracelet, it was like a little witch seeing a great master.


    "Grandmother, you''re her Grandmother, you''re her elder. If you want a bracelet, why don''t you give it to her? "My granddaughter thinks that Grandmother can be like this ¡­" Yun Qing whispered in Yun Lao Fu''s ears, Yun Lao Fu''s eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally nodded: "Your idea is still the best. Fine, let''s do that."


    After exiting the people of Yun Lao Fu''s courtyard, Xi Jiu Er had Liu Xiang give him another herb. Yun Qing Ran was confused: "Why are you giving this to me?"


    Xi Jiu Er laughed and said meaningfully: "This medicinal herb can help one improve their mental state and also has the effect of strengthening the stomach and eliminating food. You''ll be able to use it within a few days if you keep it. This is a medicinal herb from the heart-nourishing hall''s pharmacy. "


    Yun Qing Ran did not know what kind of medicine Xi Jiu Er had bought from the gourd, but since she had said so, she would definitely have her own reasons. Thinking back to the look in the old Madame''s eyes, Yun Qing Ran was a little pleased.


    She was not as foolish as Yun Lao Fu, who was the direct descendant of the Xi Family, and naturally did not lose out in terms of the jade bracelet she gifted her, but Yun Lao Fu looked down on her, so it was great now, she did not manage to obtain the purple jade bracelet.


    The only daughter of the Lady Yun like Yun Qing Ran, originally thought that her brother had met with misfortune and died, and had not gotten pregnant for so many years! When Yun Qing Ran brought Xi Jiu Er here, Lady Yun was in the midst of silently crying. She hurriedly wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and laughed: "Qing Ran, you came. This is ¡­"


    "This is my friend, Xi Family Xi Jiu Er." Yun Qing Ran inviting Xi Jiu Er wasn''t out of empathy, he only knew about the concubinage that wasn''t on good terms with her.


    "Hello Lady Yun, Jiu Er greets you." Xi Jiu Er immediately saluted, she liked this Lady Yun as well. She was kind and gentle, and probably didn''t like her husband.


    "Good, you look extremely good, my guess is that you have a good temper, you will definitely not be like that damned, who has no rules, and who is extremely popular." Lady Yun was very happy to see his daughter, who had a fiery temper, being accompanied by a friend like Xi Jiu Er.


    "mother!" Yun Qing Ran stomped her feet in disobedience: "What mother said about her daughter in front of outsiders?"


    "Alright, alright, I was just saying it." Slowly, a look of love appeared in Lady Yun''s eyes. She stroked Yun Qing Ran''s hair and said softly, "In front of mother, you will always be the best."


    Xi Jiu Er could not help but feel envy in her heart. Was this also true for sher mother? Was he in pain or was she a treasure? Was she always the best in her eyes? Every time she longed for a portion of the mother, her hatred for him would increase by a bit.


    "Come, sit!" Lady Yun affectionately pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand for her servants to prepare lunch. She saw that Xi Jiu Er was growing more and more fond of her, so this brat''s eyes were first clear to the bottom, and her expression was calm and unperturbed ¡­ Her gaze swept over her daughter, suddenly attracted by the bracelet on her wrist.


    "Huh?" She exclaimed, "This bracelet ¡­"


    "mother, Jiu Er gifted this bracelet to your daughter, it''s a Purple Jade Dragon!" Wang Qing Ran stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Lady Yun as if she was offering a treasure, laughing complacently.


    "This... This is too precious. " Lady Yun immediately said to Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t mind in the slightest: "Lady Yun, how could the friendship between Qing Ran and I be something that these common things can buy? It can also be considered as my greeting gift to Qing Ran;


    "It''s the mother, I, Jiu Er, am the owner of the Life Nourishment Hall, I have silver! I do not lack this much, do you think it''s Jiu Er?" Yun Qing Ran grinned. Her smile was like the sun warming Xi Jiu Er''s heart, she also wanted to have that kind of smile.


    Yun Qing Ran did not want to be a Shangguan Miss at all, she did not have a Guan Family Miss''s butler''s attitude, nor did she have a domineering attitude and did not command anyone to do what she wanted. In short, Yun Qing Ran did not have any problems while facing the Yun Family''s aura. The Lady Yun doted on her very much, very much, and that was why she was so educated.


    "Jiu Er is the boss of the Health Training Hall?" Lady Yun felt like she should re-examine the girl in front of her. She knew about the Life Training Hall, where there were no rare herbs that could be bought as long as you went there. I heard that the warehouses inside were all made of ice to ensure the freshness of the herbs.


    "Yes, Lady Yun." Xi Jiu Er smiled and asked Liu Xiang to take out the gift. The gift for Lady Yun was a medicinal formula, the medicinal ingredients written on it were also very ordinary. When Lady Yun saw the medicinal herbs, she asked with some doubt, "This is ¡­"


    "This can mediate a woman''s body and help her conceive." Xi Jiu Er said somewhat mysteriously: "But I found a doctor to ask for it."


    Lady Yun was startled, then her heart was moved by several points: "Thank you, Jiu Er."


    "Lady Yun, don''t look at the ordinary herbs. Often, those expensive medicinal herbs won''t be of much help to your disease, for example, ''Fragrant Flower'' ¡­ Although it can mediate a woman''s body, the longer she is dead from thirst, the greater the damage to her body, and the less likely she will be pregnant. " Xi Jiu Er''s nose had long asked out the faint fragrance that was floating in the room. This fragrance was mixed with the components of Chinese medicine, she did not know at first, but later on she found out. With her current understanding of medicinal herbs, she could be considered half a doctor.

 C44

    The expression on Lady Yun''s face changed, as if something had just flashed across her eyes. She wanted to hurry up and make sure that Xi Jiu Er knew what she was talking about. Xi Jiu Er kindly reminded Lady Yun that she really liked Lady Yun and how she wished to have a mother like him. She admired Yun Qing Ran, and wanted him to be alive like Yun Qing Ran.


    The Lady Yun passionately served food to Xi Jiu Er, and also asked Xi Jiu Er what she usually liked to eat, read any books, and so on. Xi Jiu Er''s reply was very orderly, and the atmosphere between the two of them was extremely harmonious.


    Yun Qing Ran chuckled, "Haha, I feel like you two are the real mother and daughter."


    The Lady Yun was annoyed: "If only you were half as obedient as Jiu Er! Look at how obedient Jiu Er is to read and write.


    Yun Qing Ran pursed her lips as if she did not care about what the Lady Yun said, and continued to eat her own food. It was something she was already used to hearing.


    "Madame, Madame, not good, Old Madame fainted." The maid suddenly barged in with a flustered look on his face, causing the lively atmosphere to freeze momentarily. Lady Yun said that she knew and would go take a look immediately.


    "Hmph, I don''t know what kind of trick you are playing, but we were all fine when we left just now." Yun Qing Ran muttered to herself. In her opinion, this must be the old Madame doing nothing but playing tricks on them. Anyway, the old Madame was always like this, they were already used to it.


    "You went to your Grandmother?" Lady Yun frowned.


    "That''s right ¡­" Yun Qing Ran then told her everything that had happened at the old Madame''s place. After that, he even burst out laughing: "mother, it''s really funny that you did not see Grandmother like that ¡­ "Hahaha."


    Lady Yun did not feel that it was like that. The old Madame suddenly ''fainting'' this time was definitely related to this bracelet. She must be trying to find a way to get the bracelet! She still didn''t understand this mother-in-law. As long as she had her eyes on something, she would think of ways to get it. Using her seniority to sell was her specialty.


    "mother, I don''t want to go." Yun Qing Ran pursed her lips.


    "Lady Yun, when will Lord Yun return? Won''t he be back by noon? " Xi Jiu Er asked.


    "He won''t be back at noon today." Lady Yun did not know why Xi Jiu Er would ask such a question, but after hearing the answer, Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed, and laughed: "Yun Lao Fu is sick, I, as a guest, have to go and take a look, don''t you think so, Lady Yun?"


    "This... If Jiu Er doesn''t want to go, then you don''t have to. " Lady Yun did not understand what Xi Jiu Er meant.


    "Hur hur, of course I have to go." Xi Jiu Er said to the Yun Qing Ran who had a conflicted face: "Big Sister Qing Ran, didn''t I give you a medicinal herb before? Now it can be useful. "


    "Huh?" Yun Qing Ran was startled: "The herb you spoke of that can help strengthen the stomach and help the body." Yun Qing Ran, who had suddenly understood the situation, shouted. "Jiu Er, did you know that the Grandmother would do this? You''re so smart. "


    "I was only guessing, how could I have thought that?" Xi Jiu Er laughed faintly, then playfully said the Lady Yun''s eyes: "As an old man, sometimes people get confused when they are old, and things are confused when they do things, and it is normal for their spirits to not be good."


    Lady Yun smiled slightly. She went over to Old Madame''s place, knowing full well that Old Madame did not even have any small ailments, yet she had no choice but to follow her daughter-in-law''s instructions. Otherwise, she would definitely spout nonsense again, such as she was not filial, and her daughter-in-law was very disobedient, so what?


    Sigh, thinking about how this Lady Yun of hers, no matter how good of a temper she had, couldn''t help but become irritable. If she had known back then that she was such a mother-in-law, she would never have married into her family.


    "Madame, I''ll go with you." Xi Jiu Er also followed him.


    "What if all of you go? I''ll go with you guys! " Yun Qing Ran walked over with a wide grin: "Hehe, this time I definitely feel like it''s going to be very lively."


    Lady Yun sighed in disappointment. When would this daughter of hers grow up and be so worried that she would die. In a few years, she would be married. No matter what, he had to be gentle. Not only could he tolerate her temper, she could also tolerate her messy habits.


    But how could a young master from a wealthy family accept such a wife? The wives of rich families had to go to the main hall and the kitchen, but their daughters were too kind to accept. If a rich family couldn''t do it, then a small family could. A small family was not bad, and he could still bring his daughter up. His woman wouldn''t be at a disadvantage. But, for a dignified Yun Family to actually marry a small family, did the Yun Family agree?


    Sigh, no matter how he thought about it, he felt extremely frustrated.


    "Old Madame, old Madame, Madame is here, Madame is here ¡­" The maidservant lifted the curtain and hurriedly came in to report.


    Old Madame who was sitting on the bed was eating his melon seeds happily. When she heard the servant girl''s report, she immediately spat out the melon seeds and laid down on the bed, covering the bed. At the same time, she was moaning in pain. After tidying up the melon seeds, she hid them away. When she turned around, Yun Lao Fu was already lying down and started humming. She immediately cried: "Old Madame, how are you feeling so good now?"


    "My heart is in pain ¡­" Hearing the footsteps, Yun Lao Fu thought that the person should have already reached the door, he gave his servant a wink, then raised his voice and spoke.


    "Unwell? Old Madame, where are you suffering from this? Quickly tell this old servant ¡­ " Her mother also raised her voice and asked loudly, "But did the old Madame see the bracelet on the Great Miss''s hand today?"


    "Sigh, you know me better than I do." Yun Lao Fu sighed.


    At this time, Lady Yun had already entered the house. How could she not know the meaning behind what Lady Yun had said previously? Hmph, snatching things from her granddaughter is too shameful. Look at her tone, how could she faint?


    "mother, are you alright?" Lady Yun stepped forward and asked softly.


    Yun Lao Fu rolled his eyes and muttered: "Don''t worry, I won''t die." Then, without leaving a trace, he gave a meaningful glance to the person beside him. The old mother was just about to say something, but was stopped by Xi Jiu Er, who took the lead: "Yun Lao Fu, what happened to you? Hurry, bring out heart-nourishing hall Yang''s medicine for Old Madame to boil. "


    All these were the servants of the Yun Family, how could they be sure of Xi Jiu Er? So, Yun Qing Ran said angrily: "Why are you still standing there foolishly, didn''t you see that Grandmother had fainted? Hurry up, this medicine has the effect of awakening the mind, it will definitely make Grandmother better. "


    In the end, Tian Xiang took the medicine fart and toasted, Yun Qing Ran stared: "You dog servants, seeing that Grandmother is sick, you actually did not pay any attention to him, if Grandmother has anything then I''ll punish you for it."


    The servants immediately kneeled down and begged for forgiveness. The old Madame''s trick to blame them for it was really unlucky.


    "Old Madame, that''s the heart-nourishing hall''s medicine, you can drink it without worry. Xi Jiu Er laughed, as though Yun Lao Fu was her own Grandmother, causing her to feel uncomfortable, she avoided looking at the bracelet on Yun Qing Ran''s wrist and said: "Sigh, it''s all an old ailment, as long as ¡­ Just rest and let me have a good time. "


    Just give her the bracelet and she won''t be sick, so quickly give her the bracelet. Yun Lao Fu''s eyes were burning with passion, even a blind person could see what she was trying to say.


    Lady Yun pretended not to see it and grabbed her mother to ask, "Did Old Madame not eat well? Why did she faint all of a sudden? "No, I have to call the doctor." After saying that, she called her maidservant for a doctor.


    "Where do you think you can find a doctor? Inviting the First Lady would cost you money, what a waste." "Actually, I don''t have any problems with that. It''s just that my chest is heavily blocked. You know that I usually have this kind of problem, so I just need to calm down and vent my anger." Yun Lao Fu had already opened his eyes wide and lied, what waste of money? Look at her house. She had the nerve to say such words? Of course, Yun Lao Fu said that the main purpose of all this was to cause trouble for the Lady Yun. For example, "How can I take this lying down?" Then she could openly ask for the bracelet.


    "Really?" Miss Xi, is your medicine effective? " Lady Yun turned her head and asked.


    Xi Jiu Er said with absolute certainty: "Madame, don''t worry. This medicine will definitely work."


    "That''s good, mother, you will be fine after you eat the medicine." Lady Yun was relieved, now she had to pretend to be stupid. She wanted her daughter''s bracelet so badly that she wanted it, did she not have the look of an elder? Today, she wouldn''t listen to her and wanted to see what she could do!


    "Take medicine? "I don''t take medicine." She wanted bracelets. She wanted bracelets. Yun Lao Fu''s face turned green as he stared at his daughter-in-law angrily, as if to say ''why do you have no experience and have no eyes''.


    "The medicine is coming, the medicine is coming." The Lady Yun took the spoon and stirred it for Yun Lao Fu to feed him. Yun Lao Fu pursed her lips and did not drink it, she was not sick so why would she drink it, she did not drink it.


    "Yun Lao Fu, quickly drink it. If there''s no effect, we''ll think of something else." Xi Jiu Er said softly.


    Another way? Yun Lao Fu immediately had an idea. That''s right, when the time comes she would say that this medicine will not work, hmph, anyway today I must obtain the item.


    "Well, I''ll have a taste." Yun Lao Fu said helplessly.


    Try it? Did she think it was food? This is medicine. Yun Lao Fu''s long face twisted after drinking a few mouthfuls, she immediately pushed him away: I''m not drinking anymore, it''s too bitter, I''m going to die from the pain.


    "mother, it is said that good medicines work against ill, you must know this logic better than your daughter-in-law, how can a few drinks be effective? No matter what, we have to finish it first. " Lady Yun frowned, she still passed the pill over, but her heart was bursting with laughter. She really could endure it even for the bracelet.

 C45

    Yun Lao Fu was frustrated, but she had no choice but to drink! After drinking a few mouthfuls, she almost vomited. Oh my god, this was even more bitter than Huang Lian. She really wondered if this was fake medicine or if they were the ones who were messing with her. Yun Lao Fu finally forced himself to drink the medicine.


    "Quick, quick, give me the candied fruits, quick!" Yun Lao Fu''s face scrunched into a frown, and his tongue stuck out indecently, causing Lady Yun to be unable to restrain his laughter. Yun Qing Ran, on the other hand, had already turned his head and laughed softly.


    Yun Lao Fu took the candied fruit and started to eat. After eating three in a row, he felt better, so he leaned against the bed and took a deep breath, this pill really killed her! Now that she was lying on the bed, how could he still have any energy?


    "Old Madame, are you alright?"


    Yun Lao Fu felt that his mouth was filled with a bitter taste, he took a breath and said: "He won''t die." She raised her head to look at the concerned mother. Her face was filled with doubt, could it be that this daughter-in-law wasn''t going to discipline her? If that wasn''t the case, then it was his granddaughter.


    "This medicine doesn''t have any effect, did you use it to treat me?" It was true that Yun Lao Fu had flipped her face faster than a book could be turned, she immediately pointed her spear at Yun Qing Ran, causing Yun Qing Ran to be baffled: "Grandmother, you wrongly accused your granddaughter, this is the medicine brought by the Xi Family, and it was originally meant to be for mother, who would have thought that Grandmother would faint and give it to him to eat, if it''s her granddaughter who can cure the Grandmother, how can there not be a prophecy?"


    Lady Yun''s expression was not good. "mother, even if Qing Ran is a little naughty, she would definitely not do anything to harm Grandmother. I can guarantee this."


    Yun Lao Fu was not very confident, although this granddaughter of hers was not pleasing to the eye, she still treated him well, just that she was not able to please him like Yun Qing. But ¨C since she said so, she couldn''t just take it back. It wouldn''t be good to go down this flight of stairs.


    "I know it the best. It''s said that you don''t know the face of a person and the heart of a person." Yun Lao Fu grumbled, causing Lady Yun''s face to immediately turn ashen. Yun Qing Ran''s expression was also not good, she snorted coldly: "Grandmother, in the past I did not know the meaning of ''why is there no reason to blame'', now I know."


    "You." Yun Lao Fu immediately seemed to have gotten a hold of something: "You, you, you actually contradicted Grandmother, do you still have a Grandmother in your eyes?"


    "Grandmother, your granddaughter naturally has you in her heart, but it''s a pity that you might not have me, your granddaughter. Yun Qing Ran''s attitude became a lot colder, Yun Lao Fu''s long face made her disgusted, she dressed up well, at her age, she still wanted to learn how to dress up as a play in the brothel, it was truly repulsive. Old people should look like old people.


    "You, you mean I wronged you?" The old Madame fumed. This granddaughter of hers was not liked by him, she looked really annoying.


    Yun Qing Ran could not stand the hatred in the old Madame''s eyes. This medicine was brought over from heart-nourishing hall by Xi''er. However, after suffering for a bit, you feel that I am hurting you, if Yun Qing gave this medicine to you today, would you still think so? "


    Lady Yun was also angry: "mother, you are accusing Qing Ran wrongly."


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed coldly: "Hehehe, so the etiquette of the Feng Family is much worse than what I imagined. Even if Miss Yun Qing is favored, she is still a concubine. Yun Lao Fu, you are looking down on Yun Qing Ran because you are looking down on the rules of the Yun Family, is it possible for people to not care about anything when they become old? You kept saying that you were murdered, but you wanted to say that I was the one who murdered you? If there really is still leftover medicine inside, come here, Liu Xiang go and find a doctor for me, I will come to Yun Family today, I cannot allow myself to be unjustly accused. "


    "Jiu Er..." Yun Qing Ran thought that Xi Jiu Er was really angry from her actions, even the Lady Yun felt that it was so. After all, the other party actually dared to be slandered because of her kind intentions. It was no wonder that she wasn''t angry.


    Xi Jiu Er held Yun Qing Ran''s hand and squeezed it, blinking her eyes without leaving a trace. Yun Qing Ran came to a realization and nodded: "Right, go find a doctor. For Miss Xi to be a guest at Yun Family and suffer such humiliation, if we cannot help her wash away, then how would outsiders view our Yun Palace?!"


    "You, you!" Yun Lao Fu is so popular, and every single one of them are here to target you, right? She is a dignified old Madame, so what does she, Xi Jiu Er, care about?


    "What humiliation? I''m just speaking the truth. " Yun Lao Fu pursed his lips and said.


    Xi Jiu Er sneered in her heart, luckily Old Madame Xi was not a person from Yun Lao Fu, if not she would really be hard to deal with. She slowly walked over and picked up the medicine bowl on the tray, and shouted at Liu Xiang: "What are you standing there for, do you want to see your master being wrongly accused?"


    The sudden explosion of Qi made the room shake, the way she looked at Xi Jiu Er also changed. Now, everyone knew that Xi Jiu Er was angry, and Yun Qing Ran couldn''t help but to be afraid at this moment, was Jiu Er really angry?


    "There''s no need for Liu Xiang to go, I''ll let the servant go." Lady Yun''s face darkened and she ordered her maidservants to find a doctor. The atmosphere in the room was a little weird. Yun Lao Fu and the others reacted to Xi Jiu Er''s shout just now, and stared at him without saying a word.


    Lady Yun did not say anything, nor did Yun Qing Ran, who stood quietly by the side, and other than staring, Yun Lao Fu only knew how to stare. The old mother by his side acted as a mediator, laughing and saying, "Miss Xi, Old Madame''s body is not feeling good right now, don''t take it to heart."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled, but she did not seem angry at all: "This mother is right, because of Yun Lao Fu''s body, we cannot let this go, if there is really something wrong with this pill, how can Yun Lao Fu eat it?"


    "This ¡­" old mother did not know how to refute, she could not say that it was all Yun Lao Fu''s lies, so she could only chuckle and did not speak anymore.


    When he saw that everyone was fine, he looked at the old Madame on the bed. His face was rosy and his eyes were focused, especially the anger that was burning like a fire. I don''t know who got sick.


    "Doctor, take a look and see if there''s something wrong with this medicine." Xi Jiu Er passed the soup in her hand to the doctor, who smelled it and tried using a silver needle, the result showed that there was no poison.


    "Is there really no poison? "But why is it so bitter, even my gallbladder is going to come out." Yun Lao Fu knew that there was no poison, she was curious about why it was so bitter, could it be that they added Huang Lian for her to drink?


    "This is called the Heart''s Calamity Grass. It''s a very precious herb. It can awaken the mind and have a very good effect, but the only thing is that it''s very bitter. It''s even more bitter than Huang Lian. This is also the medicinal property of the Heart''s Calamity Grass." The doctor explained.


    "Is that so?" So it was like that. Yun Lao Fu''s face was unnaturally red, he pretended to cough and had his men bring the doctor down. Lady Yun despised his mother-in-law a little in his heart, and turned his head to apologize to Xi Jiu Er, hoping that she wouldn''t take it to heart.


    "Hehe, a reputation is the best we can do. This is what we all want to see." Xi Jiu Er did not mind and laughed, but compared to Yun Lao Fu''s methods, it was like he was a petty person that could not show off his skills. I reckon that Yun Lao Fu himself had also thought of this, and his face did not look too good, as he squeezed out a smile: "Hehehe, it was my bad idea, a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."


    "It wasn''t a misunderstanding." Xi Jiu Er slightly smiled, and said to Lady Yun: "Madame, didn''t you say earlier that you would bring me to see the flowers you grew? Now that Yun Lao Fu is fine, let''s go and take a look. "


    "Wow. mother has already eaten the medicine and will be better in a moment. My daughter-in-law will go and accompany Miss now, if not you would say that our Yun Family has neglected our guest. " The Lady Yun''s smile was as brilliant as it could get. In the eyes of Yun Lao Fu, it was as if she was laughing at him, causing her expression to become ugly.


    "My daughter-in-law, I know you''re a good person. Today, I''m not afraid of you laughing and telling me that I like the bracelet on Qing Ran''s wrist, look ¡­" Before she could even finish, she was rejected by the Lady Yun. "mother, that bracelet was given to Qing Ran by.


    "No, I want what is in her hands. I am her Grandmother, even if you want her, you should give it to me." Yun Lao Fu was unrelenting, it seemed like he was determined to take Yun Qing Ran''s bracelet.


    "I can''t take it off." The Lady Yun said indifferently.


    "I''m not afraid if I can''t take it off, I naturally have my own ways." When Yun Lao Fu heard his daughter-in-law''s words, he immediately became more relaxed. He immediately ordered his people to prepare the oil, saying that as long as they were stained with the oil, they would be easy to remove. Lady Yun pursed his lips and did not speak. Yun Qing Ran''s smile was a little cold, but Xi Jiu Er spoke instead: "What if you can''t pull it out?"


    "I don''t want it if it can''t be pulled out." Yun Lao Fu never thought that she would not be able to pull it out, how could she not be able to? She stared intently at the bracelet on Yun Qing Ran''s wrist, she wished that it was on her body.


    Seeing her mother-in-law''s shameful actions, she could not help but rejoice a little. Luckily it was Jiu Er who came, if anyone else had come, they would have gone out to make things up.


    After a while, a servant came back with a small basin of green oil. Yun Lao Fu then smeared the oil on his wrist, "Take off that bracelet for me, whoever takes it off will get a reward."

 C46

    Yun Qing Ran''s wrist had been smeared with a lot of Huang Lili''s rapeseed oil, so the servant girl said respectfully: "Great Miss, I apologize for offending you." She then wiped it down, but could not take it off. Even so, she could not wipe it off.


    "Old Madame, you can''t take it off." The maidservant said.


    Can''t take it off? How is this possible? Yun Lao Fu who could not wait any longer lifted up his blanket and walked up to the stage himself. He angrily pushed the servant aside and said: "Get out of the way, you can''t even handle this kind of thing, you''re just a useless person." After saying that, he began to dig. Eh? I really can''t pull it out.


    The servant girl who had just been scolded as a piece of trash despised him in her heart. Tsk, if you''re not a piece of trash then you can take it off. If you can''t, then you''re just an old piece of trash.


    "I''ll believe it!" Without saying a word, she rolled up his sleeves and used all her strength to pull it off. It was so painful that Yun Qing Ran started to shout out loud: "Stop, it''s so painful, it''s so painful!"


    Lady Yun looked at his precious daughter, whose wrist was flushed red with heartache, and shouted out loud: "mother, let go!


    Let go? Hmph, she wouldn''t let go of him. Yun Lao Fu clenched his teeth and used all his strength to pull her away. No matter how much Yun Qing Ran screamed in pain, she did not care, but it caused Lady Yun to be angered to death. Who cares about anything else, she pulled Yun Lao Fu away, causing him to accidentally fall onto the ground, and did not recover from his shock for a long time.


    How could Lady Yun care about Yun Lao Fu? She stepped forward and held onto Yun Qing Ran''s wrist so tightly that she almost cried: "Does it hurt? Let''s go, mother will apply the medicine for you. "


    "What''s going on?" A calm male voice suddenly sounded. Standing at the entrance, he saw an elegant man, in his eyes, his mother was sitting on the floor, her wife was holding his daughter''s hands and was close to crying, while his daughter was crying tears, his first reaction was that his daughter must have angered mother again.


    "Qing Ran, have you angered your Grandmother?" Yun Feng frowned and asked angrily.


    Yun Lao Fu who was sitting on the ground suddenly started crying, he almost wanted to beat his chest and stomp on the ground: "Oh god, what have I done, to actually meet this kind of wife, I''m so angry, I''m going to die from anger."


    "mother." He knew better than anyone else what kind of person his daughter-in-law was. He wasn''t blind, it wouldn''t be easy for him to have such a mother as his son, let alone his wife.


    Yun Lao Fu snorted. In her opinion, her son was a picky eater, and no matter what her wife said, she believed it. She did not believe it at all.


    "Jiu Er greets Old Master Yun." Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and blocked Yun Lao Fu''s path.


    Only then did Yun Feng realize that there were other people in the room. He looked up and down at Xi Jiu Er, and saw a familiar figure in front of her eyes. Xi Jiu Er? He chuckled, "So she''s Old Seat''s daughter."


    "Indeed, when I met Big Sister Qing Ran at the Princess Rongwang''s floral feast s, I felt that it was like seeing an old friend at first sight. I specifically came here today to visit, I hope we didn''t disturb each other." Xi Jiu Er smiled, Liu Xiang took out a box from the bag behind him. Yun Lao Fu stretched his neck out to take a look, if it was a treasure, he would snatch it himself.


    "This is a small item that Jiu Er gave to Uncle Yun. I hope it will catch Uncle Yun''s eyes." Xi Jiu Er handed the box over to Yun Feng, and when Yun Feng opened it, a look of joy flashed past his eyes. This was a pendant worn on his waist, and the material of the pendant was from glass that was hard to come by in the market.


    "I really like it. You sure are considerate." Yun Feng smiled.


    "Uncle Yun, quickly take off the bracelet on Sister Qing Ran''s hand." Xi Jiu Er realised that Yun Lao Fu who was holding out her hand moved, she immediately blocked again.


    Only then did Yun Feng look over, and discovered that his daughter was crying miserably, her wrist was already red and swollen so he couldn''t help but ask curiously: "What is this, for Qing Ran''s hand to be so swollen that it cannot be removed, what kind of trouble is this?"


    Lady Yun was furious and hateful towards her husband. Just now, she hurriedly asked her about what she thought her daughter had done that was excessive, but now that she was concerned about him, he really made her unsure of what to do.


    "It''s like this, Uncle Yun, previously Jiu Er wanted to give this bracelet to Yun Lao Fu, but he said that this bracelet is not the Purple Jade Dragon bracelet so he let me keep it. So he gave it to Big Sister Qing Ran, but didn''t think that it was really a Purple Jade Dragon. Old Madame wanted to take a look, so she asked Big Sister Qing Ran to take it off, but Old Madame, who couldn''t go, told him to ¡­ Aunt Yun also felt very upset when she saw how much Qing Ran felt, and she told Yun Lao Fu to move aside, but when Yun Lao Fu did not move away, she fell down. "


    Rather than Lady Yun saying it, why not she herself? What she said was the truth, saying Aunt Yun, Uncle Yun and Big Sister Qing Ran wasn''t as friendly as she thought.


    Yun Feng''s expression didn''t look good, he wanted to see what was going on. According to her bond with the old Madame, it was obvious that she wanted to take possession of him. Hearing Xi Jiu Er''s words, it did not seem like he was making it up. He knew very well what kind of person his mother was to be able to do such a thing.


    Big Sister Qing Ran said that Yun Lao Fu had fainted that time, so this time Jiu Er brought some medicinal herbs from heart-nourishing hall, a pity that Yun Lao Fu said that it was poisonous and that she was planning to kill her, Jiu Er''s heart is very afraid and terrified, let the doctor take a look, so it was just a false alarm, otherwise Jiu Er would be blamed for it. Xi Jiu Er''s words were filled with true happiness, as though this Yun Lao Fu had someone who would give her life in exchange for her own. Her little face had already turned white.


    Yun Feng frowned and looked at Yun Lao Fu unhappily. Yun Lao Fu did not refute her with a smile, but what could she refute? Xi Jiu Er had said it skillfully and told her everything, if she did not admit to bringing Yun Feng along to ask, she would not be able to keep her old face anymore. Therefore, she could only smile stiffly.


    "Haha ¡­" Seeing his daughter''s pitiful and teary eyes, he could not help but berate mother. Even though he was a lot of years old, he still liked to owe others things, so even if this bracelet was precious, it could not be like this. If it was spread out, people would still think that Yun Family had never seen the world before.


    "Take care of Old Madame, let''s go." Yun Feng did not want to stay and watch, so he left with his wife and daughter. Xi Jiu Er said with a smile: "Yun Lao Fu, do you want to be angry and not faint, if not you will have to drink that bitter medicine again."


    Yun Lao Fu''s old face was flushed red. She had been cancelled by a little girl, and had been made fun of by a little girl ¡­ After everyone had left, she scolded him, "A bitch without a mother."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face sank as she walked outside. ''Good, Yun Lao Fu. Just you wait.


    "Does it still hurt?" Yun Feng looked at his daughter''s swollen wrist and sighed. "If it''s painful, then you don''t need it anymore."


    Yun Qing Ran pitifully said: "But what if Grandmother fainted again? You''re going to give me confinement again."


    "Cough..." Yun Feng turned his head and said to Xi Jiu Er: "Do you want to stay here for a few days?"


    Yun Qing Ran rolled her eyes and said, "Father, what are you saying? How can I be ashamed to answer your question? Even if I do feel like staying, I would still feel embarrassed. "


    "You damned girl." Yun Feng chuckled.


    Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er thought that if she had a son, perhaps Lady Yun would be very happy, and Yun Qing Ran would be the same. She could understand that Yun Feng deeply loved his wife and daughter. If she had a son, their relationship would be even stronger.


    She wanted the Lady Yun to become pregnant during this period of time ¡­


    At night, after Xi Jiu Er ate dinner and watched Lady Yun drink the medicine, she suddenly spoke out. "Aunt Yun, can I sleep with you tonight?"


    "Huh?" The first one to react was Yun Qing Ran. She opened her eyes wide: "Shouldn''t you be sleeping with me? mother wants to sleep with Father. "


    Lady Yun was also startled, she never thought that Xi Jiu Er would make such a request. She calculated that Yun Feng would not return today, and said while thinking that she also liked Xi Jiu Er: "Alright, no problem."


    "No, no, I also want to sleep with mother. I haven''t slept with him for a long time either." Yun Qing Ran grinned and said.


    After dinner, the three of them chatted for a while. Lady Yun made a robe for her husband under the candlelight, while Xi Jiu Er sat at the side and praised: "Aunt Yun, your hands are so coincidental, the robes you made are so beautiful."


    "Haha ¡­" Lady Yun opened his robe and looked left and right to see if there was anything wrong with it. His eyes looked at the robe in his hands with a trace of love, the smile on his face couldn''t be wiped away no matter how hard he looked. Xi Jiu Er felt that at this moment, the Lady Yun was his own mother.


    Lady Yun''s bed was very big. Lady Yun slept in the middle, while Xi Jiu Er slept the outermost. As for why Yun Qing Ran slept inside, it was because her sleeping posture was too terrible, so Lady Yun was worried that she would fall down.


    After a while, Yun Qing Ran fell into a deep sleep, she actually still dared to snore? Lady Yun was also stunned and attacked, he looked at each other in disbelief, unable to believe that Yun Qing Ran was snoring from a little girl''s house. Lady Yun was truly depressed now, she did not know what to do with her daughter, how she would marry someone with such a temper, how would she marry anyone in the future?


    "Take a look ¡­" Lady Yun looked at her lap. She really wanted to say something, but she didn''t know where to start.


    "How do you think this child will get married in the future?" Lady Yun carefully arranged herself so that his daughter''s sleeping posture happened to be perfect, which was both funny and painful. As a mother, how she wished that his daughter could meet a man who doted on and accepted her, a good man who only cared for her.

    In the blink of an eye, he brought Lady Yun to the inside of personal space. Since Lady Yun was still asleep, Qiu Qiu hopped over and asked curiously: "Master, why did you bring the others in?"


    "She''s sick. I''m going to let her soak in spring water to cure her." Xi Jiu Er undressed the Lady Yun and turned to instruct Qiu Qiu: "Turn around."


    "Ah, oh." Qiu Qiu turned his back to the past and muttered, "What''s so good about it?" Then, he became excited again: "Master, you brought her here ¡­ It seems like she''s a very important person, will you still bring more important people in the future? Can you tell them your secret? Then Qiu Qiu can play with them ¡­ "


    Xi Jiu Er dragged Lady Yun into the spring, but she still had not woken up. Xi Jiu Er was puzzled and asked Qiu Qiu what was going on, "Regarding the relationship between a person''s physique, some people will wake up when they come in, some people won''t even wake up when they come in, and some people will fall into a deep slumber when they come in ¡­" Qiu Qiu was only guessing that it was. After all, many years had passed before the personal space was unintentionally activated by Xi Jiu Er, and he already could not remember what it was like in the past.


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er slowly took off her undergarment and slipped into the spring water. The cold spring water immediately made her 100 times more spirited, she looked at Lady Yun who was lying in the spring water with a gentle gaze, she really wished that Lady Yun was her biological mother.


    "Master ¡­" Qiu Qiu jumped in front of the Lady Yun and observed him closely. Since its master liked her so much, it had to look around first. There was nothing special about looking left and right, so Qiu Qiu felt that it was bored and rolled on the ground.


    In the distance, there were rare medicinal herbs growing. The peonies on the ninth floor that Xi Jiu Er had refined according to the books were extremely beautiful, she could not help but become infatuated with them. Finally, its gaze landed on Qiu Qiu. Xi Jiu Er felt that it was very free.


    "Qiu Qiu, is there any way I can bring you out?"


    Qiu Qiu was rolling around in boredom, but whenhe heard this, she suddenly sat up with his eyes shining with excitement, and then dimmed down: "I have not levelled up yet ¡­" After that, he became excited, "After I level up, I''ll be able to attach myself to the body of a small animal and stay by Master''s side."


    "How much longer will that take?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    Qiu Qiu shook his head, "I''m just not sure ¡­"


    I believe that day will come very soon. In the future, I will sleep with you every night in the space, and if there''s anything interesting, I will bring it here to give you. "


    "But can I?" Qiu Qiu asked joyously, in a state of disbelief.


    Only now did Xi Jiu Er realize that she did not care too much about Qiu Qiu, and felt extremely guilty in her heart. She nodded seriously: "Yes, of course you can, in the future Qiu Qiu will be my most important friend, to glance at my loved ones." She yearned for revenge, and had long forgotten about this cute close one by her side. Only when she needed it would she think of Qiu Qiu.


    Damn, she deserved it. Xi Jiu Er blamed herself in her heart. Looking at Qiu Qiu''s smile which was as happy as a child''s, she deeply condemned herself. Reflecting on her actions, she knew that she had to not do this, since she had promised Qiu Qiu that she would definitely do it.


    In the morning of the second day, Lady Yun woke up with an indescribable feeling of comfort all over his body. She felt extremely carefree and carefree, and that feeling was indescribably wonderful. This time, her sleep was sweeter and more comfortable than any other night. She didn''t even dream; she only felt that she was in a rippling lake with cool water flowing down his body ¡­ The taste was indescribable.


    "mother... "Eh ¡­" In the end, Yun Qing Ran, who had gotten up, rolled on the bed for half a day and sat down, discovering that mother was looking at her through the small copper mirror. She shouted, "When Lady Yun turned around, she immediately noticed the problem and asked in shock:" mother, how did you change your appearance? "


    Lady Yun opened her eyes wide: "You noticed it too?" When her maidservant who had served her this morning said that she had changed her appearance, she thought that it was a joke. However, the maidservant had repeatedly confirmed that it was not a joke and she did not take it to heart.


    Seeing that she could not believe it, the servant took out the bronze mirror and showed it to her. Lady Yun was shocked, the spots on her face that had disappeared for so many years had turned into fine white skin, it did not look like her face at all, it looked like she was around twenty years old.


    "What ¡­ what is going on?" Lady Yun could not believe it. Why did such a tremendous change happen after a night of sleep? It was incredible, hearing her daughter''s voice. She turned her head.


    "Hahaha, mother is so beautiful! How did you do that?" Yun Qing Ran happily lifted up her blanket and walked in front of Lady Yun with bare feet. She looked left and right before exclaiming in shock: "mother, your skin feels even better than your daughter''s skin, whiter, and more tender. I''m jealous."


    Although Yun Qing Ran said that she was jealous, she had a happy expression on her face. She did not continue asking and instead turned her head to the left and right to see if Xi Jiu Er was still around, and when she did not see him, a servant quickly said: "Miss Xi is having breakfast in the dining hall."


    Lady Yun thought for a long time, but was unable to come up with an answer. She could only instruct the servant girl to come and ask: "If anyone else asks about this, just say that I frequently eat qi replenishing soup to obtain this effect."


    "Yes." The maid nodded.


    Lady Yun looked at Yun Qing Ran, who was planning to go back to sleep, and immediately stopped him: "My little ancestor, look at him! Jiu Er is still sleeping after breakfast. Wake up quickly, no matter what, you have to bring him to my house for a look. Go out and play."


    "Right." Yun Qing Ran thought about it carefully. No matter what, he, the owner of the house, couldn''t abandon his guest. So, Yun Qing Ran unwillingly got up and washed up before going to the dining hall. She discovered that Xi Jiu Er was currently interested in a potted plant in the dining room, and joked: "Jiu Er, does that look delicious?


    Xi Jiu Er turned around and laughed: "Yo, I was wondering who it was."


    "Heh heh." Yun Qing Ran''s face became thicker, and said: "Don''t mind me, don''t mind me, I will show you my true appearance, is this not good? "Don''t you think that this is a true friendship compared to those who are false?"


    "Stop talking, you''re the only one who makes sense." Xi Jiu Er said snappily. Why did she feel that Yun Qing Ran was someone who was cold and unapproachable a thousand miles away? She actually had such a temper when she was born in a large clan like the Yun Family. Now, Xi Jiu Er could understand that the worries of the Lady Yun had all come to the end.


    "Hee hee!" Yun Qing Ran said while grinning. Suddenly, she thought of something: "Jiu Er, my mother has become prettier, and my skin is even better than mine. Why do you think that?"


    "I''m not sure. Some people would do such a thing." Xi Jiu Er sat down and answered.


    "Ah, then do you think I would suddenly become old, as old as the Grandmother?" Yun Qing Ran suddenly asked worriedly, "What do you think I should do?"


    "..." This is not going to happen to you. " Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched, she did not know how to answer Yun Qing Ran''s sudden thought, if Yun Qing Ran was together with her, she would definitely play around happily, she thought.


    "But what if something happens?" Yun Qing Ran suddenly asked with a serious face.


    Xi Jiu Er said very helplessly: "Then you''re done for."


    "AHH!" Yun Qing Ran opened her eyes wide and then chuckled at Xi Jiu Er, "Then I''m not your Big Sister Qing Ran, I''m your Grandma Qing Ran, hahaha ¡­"


    "Puchi, you wish." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    When Lady Yun came, she saw the two of them joking with each other, her laughter infected and infected her laughter. However, she still scolded him: "How old are you, to actually think like a child to cause trouble like this."


    "The mother is here, ah, no, big sister is here." Lady Yun knew that she was making fun of him for suddenly becoming so beautiful. Without leaving a trace behind, she glanced at Xi Jiu Er, and her heart was moved. Last night, even though her consciousness was indistinct, she had still heard Xi Jiu Er''s voice from her dreams. It was indistinct, and it was unknown what she had been talking about ¡­


    "Let''s see how you talk in the future." The Lady Yun looked at him and instructed Yun Qing Ran: Go and get some people to fish up the small lake, then follow Jiu Er to roam the boat.


    There was a small lake in Yun Family, but because Yun Qing Ran accidentally fell into it a while ago, the Lady Yun ordered the small lake to be sealed. No one could play with it, but Yun Qing Ran was extremely anxious.


    "This child is really energetic." Lady Yun snappily said, "All of you can go now."


    "Yes."


    After the servants left the dining room, Lady Yun asked softly: "Jiu Er, what''s the matter?" Just now, Jiu Er had secretly given her a glance, and she had turned away from everyone.


    Xi Jiu Er walked forward and gently placed a small flower pot in front of Lady Yun: "Aunt Yun, do you like eating bamboo shoots?"


    "Yes." The Lady Yun stared at the flower pot in front of him. Xi Jiu Er must have had some motive for doing so, she stared at Xi Jiu Er''s face: "Is there something wrong with this flower?


    "Auntie Yun has eaten bamboo shoots and will not get pregnant after kissing for a long time." Xi Jiu Er saw that Lady Yun''s expression had changed, and she consoled him in a hurry: "Aunt Yun, don''t worry, after I finish the medicine I gave you, you''ll get pregnant."


    Children... For so many years, she had always hoped to have a child. She was already very careful, but she never thought that the other party would still be so scheming! Lady Yun''s heart was slightly trembling. Suddenly, her hand was held by Xi Jiu Er, and the message that came from those eyes made her heart start to calm down.

 C48

    "Aunt Yun, you said that Sister Qing Ran dug this place out and placed it here? I think that someone beside her must have deliberately made her do it." Xi Jiu Er''s idea coincided with Lady Yun''s idea. She understood her daughter''s personality and only people who could make their daughter let go of their guard would be able to make them move.


    With a "pa" sound, Xi Jiu Er "accidentally" broke the flower pot on the shelf, and she surprisingly covered her mouth: "Sorry, Aunt Yun, I, I didn''t do it on purpose." Lady Yun knew what Xi Jiu Er''s intentions were the moment she thought about it. She immediately ordered someone to clean up the dining hall.


    "mother, I''m back." Yun Qing Ran''s voice could be heard from afar, full of joy and urgency. "Jiu Er, Jiu Er, let''s go.


    Behind Yun Qing Ran was her servant, Sweetheart and old mother, her mother. When the two of them saw the maid sweeping the broken flower pot, her expression did not change, but the nurse''s expression changed slightly and then returned to normal.


    If Xi Jiu Er and Lady Yun had not already been feeling down, they would not have noticed the change in their mother''s heart. The two of them exchanged glances, and Lady Yun felt very disgusted, the nurse had already taken care of Yun Qing Ran for the rest of her life, how could she have thought of harming the mother and daughter? Lady Yun did not dare believe it, but her expression was gloomy.


    "mother, what''s wrong?" Yun Qing Ran saw that the Lady Yun''s expression was strange and immediately asked with concern.


    "It''s nothing, you were the one who picked these flowers for mother, now that you''ve broken them, it''s a little sad." Lady Yun touched Yun Qing Ran''s hair. She smiled lovingly: "My daughter ¡­"


    "mother, what''s wrong with you?" Yun Qing Ran felt that the mother was a little strange, and a deep grief filled her eyes. She did not know why, but she thought that she had done it for the sake of the flower: "Don''t be sad, mother.


    "Alright." "Go out and play with Jiu Er, be careful, don''t fall into the lake like last time, and also think highly of Jiu Er. You must not act like a monkey, don''t you know that you must not be an example to an elder sister."


    "Aiya, mother, don''t worry. Daughter knows." Yun Qing Ran mumbled as she pulled Xi Jiu Er to leave. The wet nurse wanted to follow him but was stopped in her tracks, "Nanny, you stay behind. I have something to talk to you about."


    "Yes," The wet nurse''s expression was flustered.


    Xi Jiu Er followed Yun Qing Ran and walked for around fifteen minutes before arriving at the Yun Manor. In front of him was a large lake, and in the middle of the lake was a pavilion, Xi Jiu Er saw that the water seemed to have not been changed, so it was not very clean. She did not want to go, but seeing that Yun Qing Ran was so excited to be on the ship, she did not want to spoil the fun, so she braced herself and Liu Xiang got on.


    "Aiya, I''m not afraid. I won''t fall down." Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s cautious expression, Yun Qing Ran immediately comforted her and assured her. Unfortunately, Xi Jiu Er did not take this lying down, and she pouted: "Then how did you fall down from the sky before?"


    Yun Qing Ran was embarrassed, and did not know what to say. Some facts were facts, so it was not good to say it out loud.


    "Look at how dirty the water is. If it falls down more, that would be terrible. I can still accept clear water, but I can''t accept such dirty water." Xi Jiu Er said honestly.


    "Hahaha ¡­" "Don''t worry. Even if you fell, I would be the first one to save you!" Yun Qing Ran started laughing out loud. Her bright smile influenced Xi Jiu Er and she felt the surrounding sunlight become warm. She quickly said, "Crow''s beak, you''re the one who caused this fall."


    Yun Qing Ran pursed her lips and chucked the paddle to Xi Jiu Er. Therefore, the two of them started rowing the oars ¡­ The small boat was spinning in place, Yun Qing Ran laughed: "Idiot, so you did it."


    "Really?" "Then do it!" Yun Qing Ran threw away the paddle and sat on the boat, enjoying the scenery. After paddling for a long time, Yun Qing Ran was completely still, causing Xi Jiu Er to laugh out loud.


    Sister Qing Ran, you can do it! Hurry up, draw with all your might! Xi Jiu Er clapped happily and laughed, causing Qing Ran to blush from the embarrassment.


    "You, don''t just stand there. At least we have to move to that stop." Yun Qing Ran once again threw the paddle back to Xi Jiu Er. Behind her, Tian Xiang took out the kernels to wipe her sweat: "Great Miss, Servant will help you paddle."


    "No need, go away, I''ll do it myself." Yun Qing Ran refused to raise her chin and look at Xi Jiu Er, instead, she smiled slightly, and the two of them reached the small pavilion in a short time, although the two were tired and panting, they were very happy in their hearts.


    "Sweetheart, put the food on." Yun Qing Ran waved her hand, and sweet smell of wine and vegetables appeared on the stone table. Originally, the two had consumed a lot of energy, but at this moment, when they were both hungry and thirsty, Xi Jiu Er smiled and said: "You really have foresight."


    "You think I brought you to the pavilion to sleep?" Yun Qing Ran asked curiously.


    Xi Jiu Er burst into laughter, and Liu Xiang followed suit. Liu Xiang felt that the Great Miss really liked Yun Qing Ran, and she liked this Miss Yun as well.


    The Lady Yun sat on her chair and recalled, "You have been in our Yun Family for more than ten years, and you had just watched Qing Ran slowly grow up. After so many years, Qing Ran and I have brought you along quite well.


    The wet nurse said dryly, "Yes."


    "Then why did you harm us?" Lady Yun suddenly shouted, and slapped the table, causing the tea cup to shake.


    The wet nurse kneeled down and her body trembled as she looked at Lady Yun uneasily. Thinking back to what the broken vase had said, the wet nurse had a bad premonition.


    "Madame... "This old servant ¡­" the nurse stammered.


    "I''ll give you a chance to explain. If you dare to hide anything from me, don''t blame me for being heartless. Lady Yun stared at her wet nurse. She gave her wet nurse one last chance, if her wet nurse could not control her, then she would be heartless. Although her wet nurse had been in the family for more than ten years, in the end, she was still an outsider that did not have any blood ties with her. Besides, all these years she had a clear conscience about her wet nurse.


    "Madame, this old servant, this old servant ¡­ This old servant has let Madame down ¡­ Actually, this old servant does not want to do this, but this old servant has no other choice. They used this old servant''s little grandson''s life to threaten this old servant, so this old servant has no choice but to hurt you and the Great Miss! " The wet nurse finally compromised and told Lady Yun everything she knew. Lady Yun''s face turned more and more green, more and more green.


    In the pavilion, Xi Jiu Er was a little drunk. Yun Qing Ran looked at him and revealed a silly smile, "Jiu Er, why do you think mother left her wet nurse behind? Is there a problem with that flower pot? I can see that there''s something wrong with mother''s face.


    Xi Jiu Er thumped her chest, the seemingly thoughtless Yun Qing Ran was actually thinking in a very meticulous manner, "You think too much, it must be your mother that has something to say to your wet nurse."


    "Is that so?" Surprisingly, she fell asleep just like that. Xi Jiu Er called out a few times but did not reply, she just said: "How do we go back now?"


    "Don''t worry Miss Xi, there''s a whistle here, the moment it blows someone will come and pick us up." She took out her whistle and sure enough, someone came rowing to bring them back.


    Lady Yun frowned slightly: "You know you aren''t good at alcohol yet you''re still drinking, seriously."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face was also slightly red. She laughed out loud, "I think it''s because I was happy that I drank wine."


    "En, you guys can go rest for a bit. When lunch is over, I''ll get someone to call you guys." The Lady Yun seemed to be in a hurry to do something, so she left after giving instructions in a hurry.


    Roughly two hours later, Yun Qing Ran woke up and she shouted out, "You, you lecher ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was still in a daze, and when she heard the yell, she immediately woke up. She looked left and right to see where the Lecher was, only to find that Yun Qing Ran was staring at her, laughing, "Aiya, what are you being shy for? I''ve seen everything you''ve done, not only have you touched me, I''ve also touched everything."


    "You, you, how shameless." Yun Qing Ran said bashfully.


    "Then can you marry me? I will definitely take responsibility for it." Xi Jiu Er said with a stern expression.


    Yun Qing Ran turned his head: "Who wants to marry you, hmph."


    As the two were putting on an act, the maidservants outside were amused by what they heard. They covered their mouths and snickered. Xi Jiu Er and Yun Qing Ran got up after playing for a while, just in time for lunch. Xi Jiu Er joked, "Yo, we got up at the right time."


    "Of course, I got it by pinching it." Yun Qing Ran said complacently, she turned and asked the servant by his side: "Where''s the wet nurse?"


    "The Madame has called the wet nurse out for some matters!" The maidservant said.


    Yun Qing Ran did not continue and looked for Lady Yun with Xi Jiu Er. After finding out that Lady Yun was in her room, she snorted and brought Xi Jiu Er to her courtyard. The Mrs. Hsin was also Yun Qing''s biological mother, so Yun Qing Ran only had one word to describe Yun Qing: "ass-kissing girl."


    Arriving at the courtyard of the Mrs. Hsin, Yun Qing Ran went straight to the inner room, only to see the Mrs. Hsin and Yun Qing kneeling on the ground. The Lady Yun''s face was gloomy as she asked: "mother, it''s time for lunch."


    "Madame, you keep saying that I am too used to my daughter, but isn''t Madame also the Great Miss? Both I and the Madame are mother, so how can I not be accustomed to children?"

 C49

    "What happened?" At this time, Yun Feng suddenly came to make Lady Yun''s face change, but Mrs. Hsin''s and Yun Qing''s expression immediately flashed with joy. Mrs. Hsin hurriedly said, "Master, you have to seek justice for me and Qing''er, ah, when Qing''er accidentally knocked into Madame earlier, Madame brought Qing''er here to question me about how I raised a child. I was feeling a little wronged, but I did my best to not slack off in the slightest, Master you know this."


    "Madame?" Yun Feng frowned as he looked at the Lady Yun, but he was suddenly stunned. The Lady Yun today was dressed elegantly, with a simple and casual hair ornament, in her hair was a hairpin, and below the hairpin was a thumb sized pearl that lightly swayed on her forehead. She felt that the girl in front of her was very beautiful and much younger. If she didn''t look carefully, would she really have thought that she was a young girl?


    It had been a long time since her husband looked at her carefully. The love in his eyes made her cheeks heat up, and she coughed to remind Yun Feng that he had forgotten what Mrs. Hsin said just now. He could only ask again: "What did you say just now?"


    Mrs. Hsin was so shocked that her mouth gaped wide today. She was younger than Lady Yun by five years, but had spent so much effort to dress up and take care of herself everyday, so she looked younger than Lady Yun by seven or eight years. This was her chance to fight for her favor.


    The Lady Yun in front of her looked even younger than her, her skin was even more tender than hers. Based on her many years of experience, she probably had a way to make a face, so she immediately looked at the skin on the back of her neck. No matter how one took care of her face, she would never be able to only take care of her face. Seeing that the skin on her neck and hands was the same as the skin on her face, Mrs. Hsin didn''t know how she did it.


    And what surprised Mrs. Hsin was that, in just a short period of time, he could undergo such a drastic change. This was way too shocking. Hmph, there must be some kind of secret technique, Mrs. Hsin thought that he must have this method.


    Now that he saw Yun Feng staring at Lady Yun in a daze, Mrs. Hsin felt extremely disgusted, he bit his lips to change what he had said before, Yun Feng coughed and said: "Qing Er is indeed wrong, it is only right for Madame to teach you a lesson."


    "But ¡­" She wanted to say, why did First Lady teach her that he did not educate her well? He didn''t even sit down, nor did he stand up. All day long, he had been acting like a wild girl, and now he even had the face to teach her a lesson.


    "Yo, what kind of show was it today?" Yun Lao Fu was holding onto her mother''s hand and walking over. Everyone did not need to guess to know that she was here to watch the show.


    The only ones who would welcome Yun Lao Fu the most were the mother and daughter pair, Yun Qing and her daughter. The Mrs. Hsin said happily: "Old Madame, why have you come?"


    The old Madame chuckled, "Come out for a stroll if you have nothing to do. Come take a look since it''s quite lively here." As she said that, she walked towards the high seat. When she looked at the Lady Yun, his eyes widened like saucers. "You are ¡­"


    "Greetings mother." The Lady Yun stood up and bowed slightly, giving up her seat to help her sit down, allowing Yun Lao Fu and the others to look him up and down. In the end, Yun Lao Fu did not ask anything, but only asked: "What happened?" He gestured to Yun Feng for him to sit beside him.


    Seeing him act like this caused mother''s head to ache. He could not make a decision to get his hands on this kind of mother, so he had no choice but to sit beside the old Madame and not say a word.


    "It''s like this, just now Qing Er bumped into my daughter-in-law and brought her back to Mrs. Hsin. Mrs. Hsin said that it was her fault for teaching her child, so she kneeled down." The Lady Yun said that the Mrs. Hsin had to beg for forgiveness, but the Mrs. Hsin said that the rule was for the Lady Yun to punish them for their crimes. Yun Lao Fu and Yun Feng both looked at the Mrs. Hsin, and the two of them believed what the Lady Yun said at the same time.


    Mrs. Hsin always liked to admit that Yun Lao Fu was the wrong person, and she also liked this point, because she knew herself well. But Yun Feng didn''t like it. Every time Mrs. Hsin was not only mistaken, but also had a face full of tears and sobs and gentleness. In the past, she had always liked this way.


    "Madame, you are slandering us." Mrs. Hsin opened his eyes wide and shouted, "It was you, Madame, who came to punish me, saying that I didn''t teach Qing Er well."


    "Hehe, how could the concubinage in our house dare to shout at our mistress so casually? What''s more, there''s still Yun Lao Fu and Uncle Yun here." Xi Jiu Er said softly to Yun Qing Ran, his voice not too loud, just in time for everyone to hear. Yun Qing Ran also cooperated: "This Mrs. Hsin has been like this for so many years."


    Yun Qing Ran and Xi Jiu Er were both thirteen years old girls, and Yun Qing Ran was only a few months older than him. The two of them discussed in low voices, and it seemed like they were talking about some secret that no one else could hear.


    The Lady Yun pursed her lips and laughed, finding it very interesting. Yun Feng could not help but smile, only Yun Lao Fu and the Mrs. Hsin both had dark expressions! Then, she heard Yun Qing Ran say, "You don''t know that father and Keke like her crying face, but I don''t know how to like a crying face full of sorrow."


    "Puff ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was also overjoyed. Not only him, many others also laughed, but of course, this time Yun Feng couldn''t laugh at all. Furthermore, the description was very accurate. Crying when there was nothing to do was just running away. The Mrs. Hsin finally could not take it anymore. She said, "Great Miss, what do you mean by this?"


    "Ah, you, you heard me?" Yun Qing Ran looked at Mrs. Hsin in shock.


    The Mrs. Hsin gave a cold laugh and said, "The two of them are speaking so loudly, it''s hard to hear them even if you don''t want to." Mrs. Hsin did not want to pursue the matter of etiquette any further. After all, she had not done well, if she allowed First Lady to find a flaw, it would not be good, but what she needed to do now was something else.


    Old Madame, Master, I have been wronged! Madame said that I did not teach Qing''er well, and I feel wronged, "Qing''er said." Old Madame, Master, I have been wronged, but Madame said that I did not teach Qing''er well, and I feel wronged. Mrs. Hsin touched her tears as she said, as if there was endless grievance.


    Yun Lao Fu snorted with disdain: "Hmph, she still has the nerve to say that? I saw that she might not have taught her as well as your child. "


    The Lady Yun did not speak, Yun Qing Ran was not as good as Yun Qing, who was seen by the public, she only looked at Yun Lao Fu indifferently and did not say anything, but how did her own daughter raised her, and what did it matter to her, the Old Madame? As long as his daughter was happy, it was fine. Therefore, other opinions didn''t matter at all. If it was really important, she definitely wouldn''t have let her daughter have her way.


    "Old Madame ¡­" Mrs. Hsin looked at the old Madame excitedly. The old Madame comforted her and smiled. It was as if the Mrs. Hsin was her daughter-in-law.


    "I would like to ask Mrs. Hsin what you usually teach little sister Qing Er." Suddenly, Yun Qing Ran grinned, and said with great pride: "I have dabbled in all kinds of zither, chess, calligraphy and painting."


    "Hehehe, is that so? Then let''s compete. If little sister Qing Er loses, Mrs. Hsin will have to apologize to you. It will be the same for Grandmother as well." Yun Qing Ran said as she stared at the Mrs. Hsin. Lady Yun raised her forehead, she really did not know what to do with his daughter.


    The old Madame scoffed. This damned girl had learnt how to boast without learning anything else. How could she compare to Qing Er? She had seen Qing Er''s excellent calligraphy and paintings, and her embroidery was not bad either.


    Yun Feng frowned, this daughter of his was too rash. She did not only think about it, she also wished for Yun Qing Ran to shut his mouth!


    Mrs. Hsin said proudly: "No problem, if Qing''er loses to me, apologize to Madame."


    "I also want to apologize to your mother." Yun Lao Fu said indifferently.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Yun Qing Ran with excitement and ridicule in her eyes, it looked like the mother and daughter of the Mrs. Hsin were really unlucky, maybe Yun Qing Ran was not how everyone looked on the surface.


    "Fine, I will not let you go!" Yun Qing Ran smiled slightly.


    Since the Mrs. Hsin was referring to the involved in all kinds of painting, naturally, they had to compete in every one of them. First, it was the zither. Yun Qing had chosen to play "Dream Bet Jiang Nan", which was a melodious and sentimental song. When Yun Qing played it, it was very easy, and even though she had almost gotten fired from it, it was already not bad.


    When it was Yun Qing Ran''s turn, Mrs. Hsin held the attitude of watching a good show, while Yun Qing''s eyes were filled with ridicule. To her, she did not even need to compete to know the result, she did not even put Yun Qing Ran in her heart. The old Madame opened her mouth wide as she drank her tea. She didn''t want to look at the bracelet on Yun Qing Ran''s wrist because it was too eye-catching, causing her to feel annoyed.


    Yun Qing Ran disdainfully said: "Playing those love songs at such a young age is really too low." Although "Dream Bye Jiang Nan" had few romantic relationships with girls, playing it was no different from playing those coquettish songs.


    "You!" Yun Qing''s face stiffened, he actually dared to say that she was lowly and lowly. She actually wanted to see how noble she was, because today, even without her, she would be inferior to a lowly person: "Then let''s see what kind of noble song elder sister can make."


    Yun Qing Ran coldly snorted, and said with disdain: "It''s definitely not a song like yours, today I want to play ''Phoenix Startled Flying''!"


    < Flying Phoenix > was a song, and its difficulty was much higher than Yun Qing''s song. It was very complicated too.


    "Hehe, big sister will show it to little sister!" Yun Qing ridiculed, jumping out was the hard way, saying that it was useless, but she wanted to see what kind of "Cock Hair" would pop out!

 C50

    In his previous life, Yun Qing Ran was an exceptional woman in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, and not many women could compare to her! Yun Qing Ran who was sitting in front of the zither brandished his hands, and quickly danced about on the zither strings. After the zither strings left her body, Yun Qing Ran and Mrs. Hsin gradually appeared, their expressions extremely ugly. Yun Lao Fu''s face was also very ugly.


    The song ended, and it took a long time for her to recover from it ¡­


    Yun Qing Ran looked at the mother and daughter with satisfaction and said coldly: "How is it? Hurry up and apologize to mother! "


    Yun Qing was almost biting the blood out of her mouth as she said unwillingly: "This is just a competition of zither, chess, books, painting, there''s no competition at all ¡­"


    "Sure, after losing every match, you have to apologize to my mother, and he too!" Yun Qing Ran laughed! Yun Qing was indifferent to it, since she was still a junior, and she did not necessarily feel that she would lose, and Mrs. Hsin trusted her daughter, but Yun Lao Fu did not, what if Yun Qing lost and she had to apologize to her daughter-in-law and granddaughter? Where would she put her face? No matter what you say, you won''t agree.


    "Forget it, this match is enough!"


    "But the old Madame ¡­" Mrs. Hsin opened her mouth to say something, but was fiercely glared at by Yun Lao Fu: "No, but! "Hurry up and apologize to them ¡­"


    "Hehe, mother doesn''t need to apologize, Qing Ran is just joking, mother, don''t take it seriously." Lady Yun found a place to go down, Yun Lao Fu was very willing to go down there. Mrs. Hsin and Yun Qing were really unreconciled ¡­ A single song and you won or lost? There were others!


    "What? Are you willing to admit defeat?" Yun Qing Ran said while sneering.


    "Madame, Miss, I have eyes but could not recognize Mount Tai, I''m sorry!" The Mrs. Hsin apologized, staring at Yun Qing with the intention of letting her apologize as well. Yun Qing said unwillingly: "mother, sister, I''m sorry!"


    After that, Xi Jiu Er found out that she did not know anything about Yun Qing Ran''s chess pieces, calligraphy and painting. It''s the only song you can play. laughed heartily after hearing this.


    First Lady had just come back and found that there was no one waiting for him at the door. He thought to himself that if he had the time, he would teach them a lesson. When he walked into the room, he heard the laughter of men and women. The man was naturally Xi Hong Sheng, and the woman was a servant named Xiao Fang.


    "Master... Don''t do this... If First Lady sees this, she would be beaten to death ¡­ " Although she said don''t be like this on the surface, she clearly wanted to refuse and welcome him. Little slut, little slut! First Lady never thought that he would produce such a despicable seed just by being careless.


    "Don''t worry, I, Master, will tell Madame to allow you to become a concubine servant girl ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng''s voice was completely different from the calm and refined man in the day, her words carried a hint of teasing. First Lady scolded this old fogey in his heart, he was not ashamed at all.


    Wang Ma coughed and said, "Madame, do you want this old servant to bring some water for you to bathe in?"


    "No need." First Lady squeezed these words out from his teeth, then adjusted his appearance and walked into the house with a smile on his face. Seeing Xi Hong Sheng sitting there drinking tea, Xiao Fang was so scared that her face turned white.


    First Lady gave a bland look to Xiaofang, then smiled and said: "Master did not notify me when I have the time today. I will personally prepare some summer snacks for Master to eat on this scorching day." Xiao Fang bit her lips and glanced at Xi Hong Sheng before she left. She was reminding Xi Hong Sheng not to forget his initial promise and not to let him forget about making her a concubine.


    First Lady saw Xiao Fang''s small movements, this little bitch would come to take care of her again later! Turning his head to tell Xi Hong Sheng about the matters in the manor, Xi Hong Sheng impatiently said: "This is Madame''s decision, alright?"


    "Yes." First Lady smiled faintly.


    Xi Hong Sheng was aroused by the servants'' desire, upon seeing First Lady''s dressing up, he felt that she was more beautiful than ever, so he instructed her that he would be sleeping here in the afternoon, and should not be disturbed by anyone. Everyone understood what he meant. Wang Ma immediately said: "Yes, this old servant will go instruct them right away."


    First Lady was also excited, other than the days when Xi Hong Sheng was assigned to sleep in his own room, he would rest in each courtyard the rest of the time.


    It goes without saying what happened next.


    After Xi Hong Sheng left, the Wang Ma served the First Lady as his servant and asked Xiaofang what to do with her.


    "Get that bitch who thinks about Pan Gao Qi over here." The First Lady was furious when he thought about what happened below ground. Not long later, the terrified servant girl came over, First Lady saw that she had quite a bit of beauty, wearing thinner than normal in the summer, taller, she annoyed First Lady just by looking at it, and threw out a heavy slap, causing Xiao Fang to fall to the ground.


    Seeing Xiao Fang wanting to cry yet not daring to cry, her aggrieved expression seemed to First Lady to be like someone who was pretending to be lovely. First Lady very quickly kicked her and scolded: "Bitch, Wang Ma, bring her to my service room."


    "Don''t, don''t! First Lady knows her wrongs, Servant knows her wrongs, Servant wouldn''t dare to do it again, ah, I don''t dare ¡­" If she went to the service room, she would definitely lose her life. Don''t ¡­ However, the Wang Ma did not care about Xiaofang and had her dragged down to the service room.


    "Wang Ma, am I getting old?" First Lady rubbed his face and asked unwillingly.


    Wang Ma laughed, "What is Madame saying? Madame''s appearance has never changed, it''s still the same as before."


    First Lady sneered. She knew Wang Ma was only talking about to please her. Her daughter was about to become a Engagement, how could she not be old? Rather than letting Xi Hong Sheng play around with her all the time, she might as well find a woman to make him happy. Moreover, the other party didn''t have any background.


    When First Lady was drinking tea, she saw a woman dressed in a woman''s attire twisting her body and walking over with a smile. She was very good-looking, and also had a very nice figure ¡­ She suddenly had a bright idea. "Ask the Phoebe to find out who exactly this woman is."


    The Phoebe acted quickly and arrived the next day at noon. She said that her father was an Elementary Scholar and when he was alive, he married her to a student. Unexpectedly, that student died suddenly on the night of their marriage and she became a widow! A lot of people wanted to marry her so she didn''t agree.


    "Let''s connect the line with that surnamed Bai ¡­" I have something to talk to her about. " First Lady said indifferently.


    The next morning, the First Lady went out. In the side room of the teahouse, he saw that the woman had been waiting for him for a long time. She had a curious expression, he did not know who had come looking for him. When First Lady appeared, she was already stunned, she never thought she would be dressed in such beautiful women''s clothes, looking at their attire, her eyes were really red.


    He waved for Wang Ma to wait outside, to not be allowed to eavesdrop from the distance. This action caused the woman to be filled with suspicion, but she still could not help but speak. "This Madame, you are ¡­"


    "I am First Lady of the Xi Mansion." First Lady revealed her identity with a smile. Seeing the other party looking at her in shock, she smiled meaningfully and said, "Have you found a suitable partner to marry?"


    The woman didn''t know what the First Lady meant. Why did the Xi Mansion find her? As the saying goes, one doesn''t visit the Three Treasures Palace for no reason. Since she had come to find him, there must be a reason. He didn''t know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.


    "Hehe, not yet ¡­" The woman became even more suspicious. This Madame wouldn''t be so bored as to ask about her marriage, but she didn''t know if it had anything to do with her ¡­ The woman became a bit more cautious ¡­ Could it be that she had seduced that man, and that he was related to the First Lady?


    "I will not speak the truth. I want a woman to serve my Master ¡­" "Do you agree?" First Lady said in a shocked tone, causing the woman to be stunned for a long while before she came to her senses and understood what was going on. For example, some Madame s of large families would find a room for their husbands and find a place for their concubinage to stabilize their position.


    "Madame Xi is not joking right?" The woman was a bit unsure. She had actually encountered such a good thing? Impossible.


    "Of course it''s true!" The corner of Madame Xi''s mouth raised into a faint smile: "I will give you guys a chance, it depends on how you grasp it."


    The woman thought to herself that the matter of the pie dropping in the world was not that simple. She was afraid that the Madame had other things to request of her, and once she became the concubinage''s concubinage, she would be taken by this woman! She didn''t want to, but once she thought about how she would be like an angel in the future, becoming a Madame, she agreed.


    "Alright, I will bring my Master to the Drunken Immortal Tavern for a meal tomorrow. When you appear ¡­ I will make the Master accept you. " First Lady likes this kind of greedy woman, the more greedy she is, the easier it is to control!


    In the future, she would have the First Lady to rely on, and things would go smoothly! He then stood up and bowed, showing his agreement. The two of them looked at each other and laughed. First Lady secretly cursed at her.


    The next day, the First Lady brought Xi Hong Sheng to the Drunken Immortal Inn. They told him that the Drunken Immortal Inn had brought a new dish for Xi Hong Sheng to taste, and if he liked it, he would let the chef learn to cook it. Xi Hong Sheng originally liked the dishes of the Drunken Immortal Inn, but after listening to it, he was naturally overjoyed and agreed.


    The moment he entered the Drunken Immortal Inn, he was suddenly struck by an enchanting woman. Just as Xi Hong Sheng was about to curse in rage, he saw a woman looking at him flirtatiously, as though she was sending him a gift in secret, he only said, "Madame, be careful."


    "Thank you, Master." This person was none other than the girl surnamed Bai. She turned around and walked away with a smile!


    "Master, let''s go." First Lady was full of resentment, but she still pretended to have a small face. Looking at Xi Hong Sheng''s unsatisfied expression, she couldn''t help but sneer in her heart.


    Xi Hong Sheng had indeed eaten a new dish which was extremely tasty, and was filled with endless praises. First Lady saw him and said joyfully: "Just now, the one who accidentally charged into Master was surnamed Bai, but unfortunately, his life was miserable. I like her so much that I want to marry her to serve Master. What do you think about Master? "


    Xi Hong Sheng thought of the woman''s appearance and knew that she was definitely a good hand at it. He replied immediately: "Not bad, not bad, Madame is the most virtuous, so it is natural that it is excellent!"

 C51

    "Hehe, Master can eat. I''ll go and get my job tomorrow." First Lady kindly gave Xi Hong Sheng some food, causing him to eat happily. The First Lady gave a look to the people eavesdropping outside the door.


    First Lady quickly married White Lady into her family, so fast that White Lady felt like she was doing something for herself. She was brought in from behind by the concubinage, so she didn''t make any noise.


    Third Wife sneered, she knew a little about First Lady''s methods, maybe in the future, this White Lady would be the spear in her hand and do some wicked things for her. Liu Er pursed her lips: Servant took a glance at her, and she looked like a cunning fox, hmph!


    "Heh, who cares what they do." Third Wife said indifferently: "Sick, come at me with water and cover me with earth." Her battle with the First Lady was already at the end of her sight. Even when her children were married, she would fight with the First Lady as long as there was etiquette.


    "Master got someone to bring him his favorite dish, Li Ji''s pastry!" Liu Er''s face finally revealed a smile, "Master is still thinking about Third Wife. Every time I go out, I don''t forget to bring some Li Ji pastries for Third Wife!"


    The Third Wife only smiled faintly and did not say anything. Liu Er was not married yet, so naturally, she was unclear about it. A woman seeing men she had once liked marry women one by one into her family, even those with a soft heart would feel as if they were made of stone!


    As soon as they entered the house, they had already coaxed Xi Hong Sheng into a circle, causing the Madame s who had already become abandoned wives to become extremely jealous. However, they were also secretly rejoicing at the day she lost, and also looking forward to the day Third Wife lost her favor.


    In the past few days, Xi Hong Sheng had been sleeping in White Lady''s house, so White Lady was pleased with himself. He looked at everyone with eyes, nose, nose and an arrogant look, that made everyone''s teeth itch.


    After the First Lady heard this, she smiled faintly. "This is exactly what I want. Let her be proud of herself. The more pleased she is with herself, the more people will take care of her ¡­"


    "Madame wants to force Third Wife to make a move?" Wang Ma could guess the thoughts of the First Lady occasionally, so he thought for a bit, "How about I light a fire?"


    "Let''s light this fire on Xi Jiu Er''s body! I saw that the two of them seemed to be very close. " First Lady was very dissatisfied with Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er''s progress. Third Wife''s defeat was due to her status as someone who could not even be considered as a wife, although the two of them were of similar status, she had the slight advantage. If she were to follow Xi Jiu Er closely, she would not be afraid of him, but the Wei Guogong behind him.


    "This old servant understands." Wang Ma said.


    The First Lady called Xi Jiu Er over early in the morning, causing Xi Jiu Er to think that it was some trivial matter, and then Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng came to pay their respects, just in time that Xi Wan Rong arrived a long time later, the First Lady did not scold him and only asked: "Are you feeling unwell?"


    "Right." Xi Wan Rong said as if he was worried about something. How could it be that she was not feeling well? It was just that she had woken up late, and had responded to Xi Jiu Er the moment she saw him. Her heart was curious. Why did Xi Jiu Er come so early today?


    After Xi Jiu Er gave his respects, they all went back. First Lady didn''t want to see her pretend to stay either, but after going back and forth, Xi Jiu Er developed a habit of inviting her to leave.


    He coincidentally bumped into White Lady, and the servant girl beside him, Zhi Ya, lifted the curtain and followed behind. It had to be said that White Lady was a very beautiful and flirtatious woman, her swaying body carried a charm that attracted men.


    White Lady dressed up very carefully, her smile was full of pride. She glanced at Xi Jiu Er, and saw that she was about to return, and said: "It''s said that First Lady treats Ninth Miss like his own daughter, and isn''t as filial to First Lady as his own mother."


    Xi Jiu Er had already expected the outcome of the White Lady. Although she looked like she would serve a man, what was the use? Everyone knows that Xi Hong Sheng likes new things and hates old things. She might not like you today and she might not like you tomorrow. Other than the woman behind him being beneficial to Xi Hong Sheng, he would only remember you. It was a pity that the White Lady did not have anyone to rely on.


    Therefore, Xi Jiu Er was unconcerned with White Lady, she was only proud for a short period of time. With only a glance at Xi Jiu Er, White Lady turned and blocked Xi Jiu Er''s path, pretending to bow to him. concubinage was always the concubinage, and as the master of the house, Xi Jiu Er should pay her respects to him.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw that she started bowing inappropriately, she immediately slapped White Lady''s face, causing everyone to be stunned. After being beaten senseless, White Lady did not know how to react, but when she reacted, she scolded out of instinct, "You little slut ¡­" From the looks of it, she was planning to tear Xi Jiu Er apart.


    Xi Jiu Er fiercely slapped across, her expression as calm as still water opened her mouth: "What Xiao Jian took care of? I am the Miss of the family, even if I was born from a concubine, you still won''t be able to insult me like this, not to mention that I am the direct descendant of your family. In mother, you are already so presumptuous, those who know you only feel that your personality is extremely vulgar, those who do not know you from the outside would think that your father doted on his concubine and destroyed his wife! "


    White Lady''s face burned with pain, she regained her senses after hearing Xi Jiu Er, and quickly said: "It''s my fault, Ninth Miss, please forgive me!"


    "What ''I'', ''I'', I don''t have any rules. Who taught you how to behave like this? You''re saying ''I'' in front of your master!" Xi Jiu Er said angrily: "A concubinage actually calls herself a senior. If it''s like this again, it won''t be as simple as just a slap. "If you don''t acknowledge your status, I will sell you out no matter how favoured you are!"


    The White Lady was so scared that he could only stare blankly at Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, "Did I say something wrong? If there''s anything wrong with it, White Lady can let me know. "


    White Lady passed through Xi Jiu Er''s body to look at First Lady, only to see First Lady drinking the tea in her cup, then she retracted her gaze and asked: "Ninth Miss is right, it''s all my fault, I was wrong."


    "It''s good that you know your wrongs." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, she then turned and bowed towards the First Lady, and said her goodbyes, "En, go."


    When Xi Jiu Er walked into the house, it was completely silent. In the end, it was First Lady who placed the tea cup on the table and waited for him.


    "It''s more than enough." First Lady glared at White Lady. This foolish girl knew to put her thoughts on men.


    White Lady didn''t dare to speak a word, she didn''t want to spare her another glance, so she only said: "Don''t think that Master is spoiling you right now, you can do whatever you want in this house. If I can get you in here, I can also get you out of here."


    "Yes." White Lady felt extremely stifled in her chest. First Lady''s words clearly meant that First Lady was holding everything of her own in her hands, unable to do anything to her.


    "Alright, you may leave." First Lady waved his hand as if he was sending away a dog, and retreated with a mouthful of meat in his mouth. Just as he left the door, he heard Xi Wan Rong''s voice, "mother, why are you looking for someone as stupid as a pig?"


    The First Lady in the room didn''t want to talk about White Lady anymore. She didn''t even get stumped by Xi Jiu Er''s words and got slapped in the face a few times. Forget it, it would eventually come in handy.


    When White Lady went back to his room, his face was so dark that ink could drip out of it! First Lady, if you are so capable, why didn''t you go yourself, and allow yourself to be used as a spear? Hmph, why didn''t she kill Third Wife when she was able to? Third Wife was still alive and well after so many years!


    The White Lady was angry for a while, causing the teeth of the First Lady and Xi Jiu Er to itch in hatred! Hmph, when she has a child, let''s see if her First Lady will still give me face. White Lady ordered Chiya to go out and make a few nice bellybands. If she did not hold onto the Master firmly, how could she be favoured?


    This White Lady knew a lot about this. She would take out the map in front of her if she had nothing to do, and sometimes she would even dress up a lot ¡­ Let her see if she can attract the attention of others. She was a girl with yellow flowers, and her cheeks were red. She was too embarrassed to show her face.


    "Yes ¡­"


    White Lady opened the box he brought with him and took out a small box. Inside the box were ten black pills, these pills could make a man unable to fall down. With this medicine, not only would she become pregnant, she would also become addicted to Xi Hong Sheng. Just thinking about it filled her with anticipation ¡­ At night... Hehe ¡­

 C52

    When the First Lady heard that Xi Hong Sheng was staying at the White Lady''s place again, his expression turned ugly, but he did not mind it. There were many women in this mansion. Plus, those who died and were sent out, wasn''t it a bit like throwing away rags as soon as they were gone? The key point was how much she needed!


    "Madame, Phoebe found something good from the outside. I heard that if a woman eats this, she can pretend to be pregnant, but doctors cannot find her pulse!" Wang Ma sent the servants in the house away as soon as he entered, he took out a paper wrapped item from his bosom and said mysteriously.


    Phoebe has been travelling for First Lady all year, whenever there is something good, it will be shown to First Lady. If there is anything good in the backyard, it will be bought by First Lady, and this time, it will be no exception.


    "Oh? Is the doctor really unable to feel his pulse? " First Lady sat up straight and asked Wang Ma, who nodded and said, "Phoebe speaks like that, do you not trust Phoebe?"


    First Lady nodded. Wang Ma and Phoebe were both people that she had brought from her family, so she had the ability to rely on them. Naturally, she had a hundred percent trust in them! She asked Wang Ma to pack this thing, and how to use the thing that he was calculating while lying on the rocking chair.


    "This old servant thinks that White Lady is the most suitable choice ¡­ The old servant saw that the Third Wife''s servant, Liu Er, sneakily left the backyard, holding onto things, the old servant was watched by the servants, and then when the servants saw that Liu Er was carrying something, they asked him if she was sick, and Liu Er said that her throat was not feeling well, so she went out to prescribe some medicine. Wang Ma told First Lady the information that he had gathered.


    The First Lady naturally didn''t believe that the Third Wife had an uncomfortable throat. The had a doctor, the Old Madame had a doctor, she had a doctor, and the Third Wife had one as well. A light flashed in her head. Could it be?


    "This old servant also guessed so." Wang Ma then said: "This old servant has asked about Cui Hua in her courtyard. Although she is from the outer court, I can still gather a lot of information. These few days, Third Wife have had the maids by my side wait on her, and said that she''s not feeling well ¡­"


    B * tch, b * tch! What good luck. Was there even a need to guess? He must be pregnant. First Lady was so jealous that his eyes were about to spew fire, coincidentally, Xi Wan Feng came over and asked him the reason.


    "This old servant and Madame guessed that this Third Wife is probably pregnant." Wang Ma said.


    "What!?" We can''t let her have a baby. " Xi Wan Feng immediately made a decision: "mother, she is currently being pampered by her father. Not only will she give birth to a concubine, if she is pregnant with a child, she might become even more arrogant."


    The current Third Wife is not easy to deal with. If you have a child to rely on, then in the future, if you want to touch her, there will be one more layer of obstruction. Leave this to me, I will naturally deal with her. A sinister look flashed past First Lady''s eyes, he pursed his lips and quickly thought of a plan to deal with this matter ¡­


    Wang Ma asked: "Great Miss, what are you here for?"


    Xi Wan Feng sighed with helplessness: "mother, you should go and see little sister. Little sister is already losing her temper, I saw that Xi Jiu Er went to Wei Guogong and followed along, so I got angry."


    "This girl doesn''t make us worry at all. What''s so good about this Prince Xian? She''s only good-looking. What''s the point of having a man look good?" Men need strength and power. How many times have I told her not to pester the Prince Xian to not let go? First Lady was furious as he said this, he huffed out: "Let her get angry on her own, it''s about time to find a time to properly change her temper. What do we do when she enters the palace in the future!"


    Xi Wan Feng consoled her gently from the side, bringing her eldest daughter''s sensible and considerate point to the extreme, "mother, don''t be angry at your younger sister. Your younger sister is only infatuated with him for a short while, so it''s normal for my younger sister to be infatuated with him because he''s too beautiful. When we enter the palace together, my daughter will take care of my sister. "


    There was nothing wrong with his words to the other party, but to the side, the Wang Ma seemed to be right. She could not tell what was wrong, but Xi Wan Feng did not seem to be affected by it, maybe she was being overly concerned.


    Xi Wan Feng asked with furrowed brows: "mother, how is the arrangement for entering the palace? This little sister will be reciting about Prince Xian after she has been inside the palace for one day.


    "Relax, in a few months, there will be news. When the time comes, an imperial banquet will be held, and all the direct daughter will be participating. That side is already prepared and won''t have any problems." First Lady''s heart was completely focused on how to get rid of the child in Third Wife''s womb, so she simply did not pay attention to her own eldest daughter''s thoughts. Wang Ma had already realized that the Great Miss couldn''t wait any longer.


    Xi Wan Feng obtained the answer he wanted and bowed. "Daughter will go see my sister, I will not disturb mother''s rest any longer."


    "Mm. Go." First Lady casually waved his hands as he remained calm and collected in his thoughts.


    Wang Ma said hesitantly, "Madame ¡­"


    First Lady asked indifferently: "What do you want to say?"


    Wang Ma thought for a moment. Although he had been serving First Lady for more than 10 years, compared to his own daughter, she was still an outsider. He then said, "This old servant has a way. I don''t know if it''s feasible."


    Wang Ma had been with the First Lady for years, so naturally, he had heard of the methods of the First Lady before. Thus, he told her his plan, and of course, he wasn''t stupid enough to tell her everything. No one wanted the people around them to be smarter than they were.


    "Oh, the method is feasible ¡­ "But it''s full of holes ¡­" The First Lady muttered to himself.


    Wang Ma immediately said: "Hehehe, this old servant naturally does not have Madame to think carefully, how can this old servant compare to you, First Lady. Look at those girls in the backyard, other than those who don''t have eyes, which one of them isn''t obedient to First Lady? Even the old Madame is very satisfied with the First Lady. "


    This sentence caught the attention of the First Lady. The concubines of the huge Xi Mansion Xi Hong Sheng were all meek and obedient to her, of course, other than the Third Wife who was eyesore to her! There were cracks on First Lady''s well-maintained face. She had fought with Third Wife for so many years, but in the end, not only did he not kill her, he had even given birth to a son.


    "Wang Ma, call him over!" The First Lady was as calm as water, leaning on the rocking chair as he slowly rocked himself.


    Wang Ma handed the medicine over and handed it over to her. She then indifferently looked at Wang Ma. The White Lady also knew that he was a dog by First Lady''s side. The person who replied would be able to use his place, and when he wasn''t needed, his time of death would probably come. Who told him that she had too many things?


    She had no choice but to do so! The only thing he could comfort was that Third Wife was also a concubine. As long as he had Xi Hong Sheng''s love, his position would be secure, even the First Lady would not be able to do anything to him. It had to be said that for a fifteen year old White Lady, they did not have a foresight to see things, nor did they understand their own situation.


    This was one of the reasons that First Lady was wary of. If Third Wife was born lowly or was a normal family, would have already killed them countless times over. It was because her family members, Master, could also see each other differently, but what did she have? Other than serving the man, his fate was still in the hands of the First Lady.


    "Yes." White Lady put the medicine back in his arms.


    First Lady smiled slightly: "You are a sensible person, as long as you defeat Third Wife, you will be the person I trust the most. In the future, there will definitely be a place for you in the backyard, as long as you are obedient and give birth to a man and a woman, there won''t be a problem."


    White Lady was a little excited. This promise was more important than anything else. With a child, he would be able to have a place in the family.


    "Thank you Madame, I will definitely settle this matter well." The White Lady said happily.


    First Lady said gently: "Go, I''ll wait for your good news."


    White Lady left happily while looking at her back in disdain. Wang Ma rubbed her shoulders as she thought about how First Lady had arranged everything.


    As expected, there was some movement in the afternoon. When White Lady went to look for the old Madame, he vomited. He immediately had the mother of joy beside him send him back and gave him a lot of good things. However, he hated Xi Hong Sheng''s concubines so much that he hated them so much that he didn''t want them to draw a little person in his room to curse him everyday.


    Third Wife was startled: "She''s pregnant?"


    "Yes." The Mother Fang affirmed: "It''s still the doctor beside the old Madame who checked her pulse. It can''t be wrong."


    Third Wife touched the child in her womb and frowned, "Nanny, I think this matter is definitely not that simple. According to First Lady''s personality, she will only make White Lady like her, how could she become pregnant?"


    "Maybe the White Lady was secretly carrying it." the nurse guessed.


    Third Wife shook his head: "Nanny, you have just arrived here, you do not understand this First Lady''s personality, if you want to get pregnant, it is extremely difficult, not to mention that this White Lady is someone she arranged. According to this White Lady, how can he get pregnant under his nose?"


    When the milk fragrance thought of the White Lady''s straightforward and hot-tempered personality, she could be said to be a heartless woman. "That''s true ¨C how could such a woman be willing to become pregnant under the White Lady''s nose without being discovered?" Could this be the First Lady''s plan? "

 C53

    "It''s not impossible, based on my understanding of the First Lady, I''m afraid things are not as simple as that." The Third Wife caressed his lower abdomen and guessed that the First Lady was probably here for his sake. He had instructed the nanny to be careful during this period of time since he had only been pregnant for three months, so there was no way anything could go wrong.


    "Don''t worry, Madame ¡­" This old servant must be keeping an eye out. " Mother Fang said. Just as she was about to say , the servant girl outside started to report that the White Lady was here. Fang Dao''s mother immediately scolded: "I don''t want to see her, our Madame is not feeling well, let her go back."


    "Yes." The servant looked at Mother Fang as he retreated.


    The Third Wife said indifferently: "I think he is here to demonstrate his strength." White Lady did understand her well. Now that she was pregnant, she really wanted to show off. As a member of First Lady, she naturally had a common enemy.


    "Madame, I heard that White Lady is pregnant." When Liu Er came in and placed the Third Wife''s pastries in front of him, the Third Wife immediately trusted Liu Er so much that she could eat and only said: "Liu Er, go tell the old Madame that my body hasn''t been healthy for a long time. Last night, I dreamt that the evil spirits would spread out their faces to ask for buddhist scriptures in the temple."


    "Yes."


    Evil ghost? Is it about the First Lady or the White Lady? White Lady did not care much for him, but he had no choice but to take Sauna in his eyes. Not only had the news of these two disagreeing with each other spread, even the people outside knew that the Xi Mansion and the Third Wife were not on good terms!


    Not long after, Liu Er replied that the old Madame had given her permission, the Third Wife was not surprised at all, she had already roughly understood the old Madame''s temperament, so she instructed the Mother Fang to pack up, she was going to the temple to stay for a period of time, up to ten days or even four to five days at the most.


    "Should I inform Master?" Liu Er asked.


    The Third Wife shook his head. Xi Hong Sheng hadn''t returned to his residence for the past few days, maybe he would not be able to return by the time she returned! Whether he told him or not didn''t matter at all, since Liu Er was going to stay in the courtyard to look after him, how could her child promise her that after he left the First Lady, some people from the First Lady would come in to do some dirty work? I can''t let anyone take advantage of the situation and enter.


    The morning of the second day, Third Wife brought a few new servants and Mother Fang s to the temple. When First Lady heard the news, he chuckled and left rather quickly! Is this hiding? Thus, First Lady was even more certain that Third Wife was pregnant. Most likely, not much time had passed, which was why he had thought of ways to protect the child.


    "Madame ¡­" Wang Ma said: "With Third Wife gone, I''m afraid it won''t be easy to deal with them."


    First Lady grinned, his eyes full of scheming. Who said it was not easy? She could kill two birds with one stone, didn''t she leave Liu Er here alone? Liu Er was Third Wife''s right-hand woman. In the past, Third Wife would bring her wherever she wanted to go, but she had no other choice. Now that she had Mother Fang, the two could not be taken into account ¡­ This was a good opportunity for her to make a move.


    "Wang Ma, come over here and listen to my instructions ¡­" First Lady rolled his eyes as he calculated.


    Liu Er was embroidering a sachet in the room. The servant Cui Hua came over and said with a face of envy: "Wow, big sister Liu Er''s hands are such a coincidence. The sachet embroidered is so beautiful, it''s a pity that I can''t do it anymore."


    Cui Hua had a better relationship with her when they were at home. Seeing that she was alone in the house, Liu Er took extra care of her, she raised her head and laughed: "Hehe, Cui Hua''s embroidery is not bad too."


    "Only Sister Liu Er praised me. Everyone else said that I was embroidering like a ghost, so I wanted to watch." Cui Hua''s face was full of sadness, but Liu Er knew that her temper was only like this, so she went to comfort her, and after a while, Cui Hua''s personality returned to normal. "Sister Liu Er, the scented sachet on your body is so beautiful, can you lend it to me?


    Liu Er was a little hesitant. She had already worn this sachet for many months, and it could be considered a personal item. Normally, even women could not casually give it to others, in case something bad happened to them. She looked at the scented sachet, thinking that she was about to finish this scented sachet, so the scented sachet on her body was useless. She could still trust Cui Hua.


    Thus, he removed the scented sachet and gave it to Cui Hua: "Take it.


    "Relax, Sister Liu Er." laughed sweetly, took the scented sachet and ran away happily. Looking at her back, Liu Er smiled faintly, and then continued to immerse herself in her work, he never thought that the scented sachet would actually be his life urging talisman, and even more so, that the person he trusted had deceived him, and pushed him into the abyss of death.


    On the second day, news came that the White Lady was a proletarian. Liu Er was startled. She also heard that the White Lady was miscarried because of someone using medicine.


    Liu Er was startled, just who in the world was so capable to actually go against the First Lady, the White Lady was a person of the First Lady. Thinking about it this way, Liu Er became relaxed, as this way, the White Lady would be peaceful for a while, and the Madame would be a bit quieter.


    Liu Er sat down and thought about how she had not returned her scented sachet back to Cui Hua even after an entire night had passed.


    The old Madame was very happy to hear that White Lady was pregnant, and her child was killed two days later. When she thought about how sad the old Madame was when she found out about it, she became even more angry. No one has gotten pregnant at home for many years. It''s rare for someone who is pregnant to actually have a baby, how could Old Madame not be angry?


    mother of joy thought to herself, who exactly has the guts to do so? The old Madame bowed and thought, then suddenly saw a scented sachet not far away. She curiously walked over and recognized this scented sachet, it belonged to the servant girl, Liu Er, who was beside Third Wife.


    Eh? mother of joy sensed an unusual smell. This smell was too familiar, when she was young she did a lot of dirty work with the Old Madame, mother of joy also knew about the girls in the backyard. This medicine ¡­


    mother of joy was someone who had seen great things before, so he did not panic or feel suspicious. Maybe Third Wife would use this! After returning, the old Madame suddenly became dispirited. He was shocked and hurried over saying, "Old Madame, Old Madame, what happened to you?"


    "Was the child not saved?" Old Madame raised her sorrowful eyes and asked.


    mother of joy nodded her head: "Yes, the doctor said it was caused by the medicine."


    "Drug? "Who is it, is it her?!" When the old Madame spoke of her, he meant her daughter-in-law, First Lady. After all, they were more than ten years of daughter-in-law. Since she came here step by step, she understood very well, so she just turned a blind eye to it. She already had two daughters and a son. The family had finally gotten pregnant, and she couldn''t tolerate it any longer?


    "Investigate, investigate for me!" The old Madame was angry.


    mother of joy was also shocked, this time he finally angered the old Madame, and quickly replied: "Yes, this old servant will go get some tea, then go investigate." mother of joy thought for a while and still took out the scented sachet she saw.


    The moment the old Madame heard it, her expression changed and she immediately said, "Go, bring Liu Er over here. If it was really her doing, I will not forgive her for the first time."


    mother of joy Yi Ling, after pacifying Madame for a while, she brought his people to find Liu Er, who noticed that something was wrong, and immediately had a bad premonition, mother of joy said: "Liu Er, Old Madame wants you to go over."


    "Yes." Liu Er calmed herself down. She wanted to find out what the Old Madame wanted to talk about with her, but since the mother of joy''s expression was extremely ugly, she shut her mouth.


    "Kneel!" The moment the old Madame saw Liu Er, she immediately shouted out, her scented sachet still in her hand. Seeing her sachet, Liu Er''s face immediately changed, she already knew that she had been tricked. Now that the Madame had gone to the temple, since the information about him had been sealed, the Madame would not know either.


    This time, the target was not the Madame, but herself! Liu Er immediately recognized this point and was fully focused, she flopped onto her knees and laid on the ground, not daring to breathe.


    "Let me ask you, is this sachet yours?" Old Madame smashed the sachet in front of Liu Er. Liu Er said in panic, "Yes."


    "Do you know what was in it?" Liu Er thought that if she was not careful, she would be dragged out to kill her, so she decided to deal with it carefully: "It''s that scented sachet that Servant lent Cui Hua."


    She was still wearing a new scented bag. The old Madame and the old mother of joy were both startled. "You said that your scented sachet was given to someone else previously?"


    Liu Er nodded, "Really! Cui Hua said that the flowers on my scented sachet were nice to look at, so she took it to draw it, but still didn''t give it back to me. If Old Madame doesn''t believe it, she can go and find Cui Hua to confront him. " She knew that Cui Hua would definitely not admit to facing him. What she needed to do was to stall for time and find a way to deal with this.


    "mother of joy!" The old Madame ordered, she immediately went out and ordered her men to bring Cui Hua over, the old Madame wanted to see her. In a moment, Cui Hua was brought over. She looked very nervous, very nervous and afraid.


    Seeing her like this, the old Madame did not even bother to ask her. mother of joy said: "Old Madame wanted to ask you, did you borrow this scented sachet to draw patterns from Liu Er?"


    Cui Hua shook her head like a rattle drum, "This, this Servant doesn''t have it, this is Sister Liu Er''s ¡­"


    Hehe, Liu Er never thought that there would actually come a day where she was ruthlessly tricked by this pitiful acting person in front of him! This time, she was most likely going to die. Liu Er looked at Cui Hua coldly, and only mocked herself: "I never thought that you would actually feel that you''re alone. I think this is all a trick you made, pretend to be pitiful, and let me get a foothold in the courtyard. Cui Hua, you have wasted my trust in you. I will take care of you, but by doing this, you will ask yourself in vain. Do I have to live up to my conscience? "


    "I don''t know what you''re talking about ¡­" Cui Hua did not dare to look at Liu Er.


    "We don''t want this kind of servant who would murder his master. Someone come ¡­" Send Liu Er out! " The old Madame ordered, the mother of joy immediately ordered her servants to take Liu Er out. Liu Er heaved a sigh of relief, as long as she was alive, the Third Wife would definitely come and save her.


    Liu Er packed her luggage simply and was kicked out of the room. Looking at the people walking on the street, Liu Er didn''t know where to go for a while.


    "Yo ¡­" ''This young lady is really good-looking ¡­ '' The four big sized men standing behind Liu Er said with evil intentions, causing Liu Er''s expression to change as she immediately ran.


    After a short nap in the afternoon, Wang Ma came over and said softly, "Liu Er committed suicide ¡­" Hehe, this time, Third Wife''s arms are finally off, hmm, White Lady is not truly useless. When Third Wife returned, he found out that Liu Er had died in extreme grief! But for the sake of the child in her womb, she could only endure the pain.


    "Madame, Madame, not good ¡­ ''This is bad ¡­ '' The maid ran in, gasping for breath, his speech slurred. Old Madame, who was looking at a treasure, played with the jade bracelet on her wrist. Her brows furrowed as she asked in a good mood, "What happened? "If it''s not something important that bothers me, I''ll skin you alive!"


    "Madame, someone reported that Third Wife went to take a walk in the flower garden and met White Lady. I don''t know why Third Wife was injured, but I heard that he has already seen red. He is currently looking for a doctor to go take a look." The maid panted and said.


    The old Madame put down her things and rushed into the courtyard.


    Inside the house sat Third Wife. Her face was pale and she was feeling uneasy as her hands were tightly covering her lower abdomen. She did not know what had happened either. She had only seen White Lady strolling in the garden from the garden, although she was extremely unhappy, but she still greeted him warmly and pretended to be a sister.


    Who would have thought that White Lady who was walking in front would actually turn towards her? Being completely unprepared, she was so scared that she did not know how to react and forgot to support. Thinking about it now, she was really afraid. If White Lady was like this, even if two people had lost their children, he would not be able to protect them, especially her ¡­ It was very likely that the White Lady would smash into his body and lose the support that he had in her stomach.


    A terrifying thought came to his mind: White Lady was doing this on purpose!


    Very quickly, she rejected the idea. White Lady was looking forward to the birth of this child, so why would she place this child as a wager? The old Madame immediately pointed his spearhead at the people below him. "How did you serve Master? All of them will be punished! " As he spoke, he hurriedly entered the room!


    The old Madame was flustered. "Men, send the Third Wife to my manor to recuperate!" Third Wife raised his head in shock and looked at the Old Madame, vaguely sensing that something was amiss. When she reached the carriage, a faint pain came from her abdomen. She was shocked ¡­ Child!


    "Phew ¨C Phew ¨C"


    The carriage stopped, and Third Wife heard Liu Shui''s voice faintly, "Third Wife ¡ª ¡ª My Miss has asked Servant to give you something!"

 C54

    "Third Wife... "Third Wife!" The Mother Fang''s voice could be heard loud and clear from afar. Her voice was like a rainbow, not much better than those Great Master''s. Third Wife''s eyes were filled with tears and she nearly burst into tears. She held onto the servant girl''s hand and stood up, "Mother ¡­ You, you''re finally back. "


    Mother Fang came in and sized her up. She choked, "My Third Wife, Nanny has only been back for a few days. You, how did you become like this? It can''t be wrong, if it wasn''t her, who else could it be? "That wicked woman!" The servant girl that was serving Third Wife right now was chosen by her and was very loyal. No matter how disrespectful she said it, she was not afraid of being spread around.


    Third Wife was extremely grieved, "Aunty, Auntie ¡­ is the old Madame ¡­ First Lady is only helping the waves. " It was precisely because the old Madame wanted her life that she was so afraid of sadness and fear. This meant that the old Madame was completely on the side of the First Lady, how would she be able to fight with him in the future?


    Mother Fang opened her mouth in shock and said uncertainly, "Did you use some kind of trick to make Madame misunderstand you?"


    The Third Wife shook his head, "It can''t be wrong ¡­. "First Lady is just pushing the tide. If it wasn''t for you saving my life, I''m afraid ¡­" A wave of hatred and anger rose from the bottom of his heart, "Nanny, I married into the Xi Family, how much did my mother do for the Xi Family, how much did I do for the Xi Family, this old woman said she wanted my life so she wanted me dead. I, I don''t hate her."


    Xi Hong Sheng had doted on her for so many years that he had not been able to get her to stand up straight in front of First Lady, and he had also humiliated his own child. Thinking of Old Madame Xi, and how his eyes were already filled with anger, "Mother, I won''t willingly be locked up here. Haven''t I seen a lot of things in the many years I''ve been in the Xi Family? You''ve survived! " As if he was talking to himself or to Mother Fang, the Third Wife muttered to himself.


    The Mother Fang''s heart ached, and she hurriedly consoled, "Madame is right, what have we not seen before in the Xi Family? What did this matter count for? Besides... Old Madame is also old and has always had a stroke. I estimate that she won''t live for long, why don''t we just lower our heads and wait for the right time? "


    Mother Fang was really enlightened by her words. That''s right, what was there to be afraid of when Old Madame died? Xi Hong Sheng doted on her so much that she did not hesitate to fall out with the old Madame for her sake. This showed her true feelings. When he thought of this, his mood immediately improved, and a smile appeared on his face.


    Mother Fang finally responded to Third Wife''s words: "Madame, you said just now that Ninth Miss saved your life? "What the hell is going on?"


    "When I was brought here that day, my body was extremely weak. Ninth Miss gave me a small porcelain bottle filled with water and said that I would be fine after drinking it. At that time, I thought that she was just joking with me, but unexpectedly, after drinking it, I actually recovered, and she didn''t lie to me. "If it wasn''t for that bottle of water, I''m afraid that Nanny would never see me again."


    At that time, she was like a duckweed hovering between life and death. It was Xi Jiu Er who saved her, and she was grateful to Xi Jiu Er. Perhaps, the main reason why she saved him was because she wanted to watch the battle between two tigers. But no matter what, she had saved him. Sooner or later, she would have to repay this favor.


    Mother Fang nodded her head: "It''s all thanks to Ninth Miss this time ¡­" Her gaze shifted to Third Wife''s lower abdomen and said sorrowfully: "Madame, did you protect your child?" When the incident happened, she did not wait by her side, and after going back, she could guess a thing or two. She originally thought that it was caused by the First Lady, but she did not expect that the mastermind was the Old Madame. Thinking about that kind old lady, Mother Fang hated her.


    Just as Third Wife had said, Third Wife and her mother had given her a lot of benefits over the years. This damned wife wants to kill someone! Thinking about it another way, Mother Fang blamed herself very much for not telling Xi Hong Sheng the news of her pregnancy in time. This way, Third Wife would not suffer even if she had to say it out loud.


    "Child? "It should be gone by now ¡­" The Third Wife was disappointed: "Less than half an hour after I was sent here, my body already lost a lot of blood, the doctor said ¡­ The child cannot be saved ¡­ " It was also at that time that Xi Jiu Er''s medicine was delivered.


    "It''s alright, the child will come back in the future. As long as I can recover my body, it won''t be a problem for me to give birth a little more." The Mother Fang immediately consoled him and fed the chicken soup to the Third Wife.


    When the chicken soup reached his lips and San Niang was about to open her mouth, his stomach suddenly churned up and he couldn''t help but cover his mouth as he ran out. Mother Fang''s face changed as she immediately chased after her: "Madame, what''s wrong?"


    "Ugh ¡­" "Ugh ¡­" Her stomach churned as if she wanted to vomit, but nothing came out. She finally managed to calm down, but then she felt another wave of nausea. She had suffered a lot of injuries this time, and now she almost fainted.


    Mother Fang supported her back, and after she was done vomiting, she went back into the house and ordered a maidservant to bring a cup of water for Third Wife to rinse her mouth: "Madame, rinse your mouth."


    Third Wife vomited for a long time and almost vomited. He sat down, took a few mouthfuls of water, and drank it all up before feeling better in his stomach. He lay on the chair and panted, "I think I have caught a cold and am unable to eat anything.


    Mother Fang looked at Third Wife as if she wanted to say something, but stopped and asked uncertainly: "Madame, are you sure that the child dropped?"


    The moment she mentioned the child, Third Wife''s heart started to feel uncomfortable. She nodded and said, "This child and I have no fate to be together anymore. Why does Nanny need to mention him again? Perhaps Buddha took her in. " She had always wanted to have a daughter, to help both her and her children.


    The Mother Fang said anxiously: "I am not talking about children, do you remember when you were bleeding that time?" In order to prevent the First Lady from messing with them, they had always planned to stabilize their birthplace before making it known to the public. Thus, the child waited for three months.


    "Blood clot?" Third Wife didn''t quite understand what Mother Fang meant, she frowned and thought carefully. Back then, she only remembered that her body was weak and that there was blood on her lower body. She didn''t check if there was blood on her lower body, so she wasn''t very clear.


    After recalling it for a while, the Third Wife creased his eyebrows and said, "I''m not too sure either. It seems like there isn''t any blood clot. At that time, the maidservants washed my body and did not report to me. She already understood the meaning of Mother Fang''s words. In her eyes, the child was probably already gone, even if she had a child, she would probably feel that the doctor would open a foetal antidote for her.


    "Nanny, you can''t be thinking that my child is still alive, right? That''s impossible." Third Wife firmly shook her head, but Mother Fang was filled with expectations. She said happily: "Maybe this child''s fate is great, does the fact that Madame is awake right now mean that this is a bad omen? I''ll go find a doctor to have a look, it''s good after all. "


    The Third Wife did not hold any hope anymore. Seeing her wet nurse looking so happy, she could not help but say those words that made people feel like they were kings. She forced a smile and said, "Mother, please go find a doctor to take a look."


    When Mother Fang left, he couldn''t help but sigh as she stroked his stomach ¡­ She was slightly startled. Previously, she had always been afraid to touch her stomach, afraid to think of that dead child. But now, after touching her belly, she was shocked to discover that it was still slightly bulging.


    Could it be ¡­ Could it be ¡­ Could it be that the child was really as Mother Fang had said, not dead at all? His heart started beating faster, filled with excitement and anticipation. He couldn''t resist the urge to call the doctor over to confirm.


    Just when Third Wife was anxiously waiting for half a quarter of an hour, Mother Fang dragged an old doctor with a white beard along with him as he rushed over. The doctor shouted directly: "Aiyo, slow down, you slow down, my old bones are about to be broken apart by you."


    "How can I not hurry up? This is a matter of life and death. If I don''t hurry up, it will be too late." Mother Fang did not take the Old Doctor''s words seriously at all and dragged him inside the house.


    "Madame, the doctor is here." The Mother Fang pointed at the Third Wife and said to the doctor: "Doctor, quickly check if the child in the belly of our Madame is still alive or not, is she healthy?"


    Uh, the old doctor''s beard trembled. He thought it was some big matter, but it turned out to be just to make people happy. He had been on the verge of losing his breath the entire way, so he was very unhappy.


    The doctor sullenly gestured for Third Wife to sit down and take her pulse. The Third Wife noticed the Old Doctor''s unhappy expression and according to his understanding of the Mother Fang, she might have tired the Old Doctor out of his wits, so he said: "If the Doctor is hurt, my mother is only worried about me. Previously, I lost a lot of blood thinking that I wouldn''t be able to protect this child, but now that I''m holding the child up, I just want to know if the child is safe and sound."


    Looking at her dressing, the old doctor knew that she was the Madame of the rich. She must have done something to stay in such a remote village. After listening to what had happened, he was no longer angry, and looked at Third Wife''s eager eyes. He slowly said: "This Madame, your child is still in his womb, he is very healthy."


    What? Is the child really still here? Third Wife and Mother Fang looked at each other and cried out in joy, "Thank god the child is still here, thank god!"


    Third Wife couldn''t hold back the tears in her heart. "My child, my child ¡­ "


    "Madame, don''t cry. Be careful of your body." Mother Fang immediately patted Third Wife''s back. Third Wife hurriedly stopped his tears and asked: "Doctor, is the child that I mentioned healthy? "Is that true?"


    "It''s true." The doctor laughed, "This child from Madame is very tenacious. However ¡­ This old one has a question, didn''t you guys call a doctor to look for you? "


    "Yes, the doctor didn''t say anything. I think the child is probably gone ¡­" Third Wife shook his head. Suddenly, he came to a realization and asked the servant girl to take out the prescription given by the doctor for him to have a look.


    The old doctor stroked his beard, looked at the prescription, and his expression became serious. "Madame, you can''t take this medicine anymore."


    "What''s wrong with this medicine?" Mother Fang immediately asked. She wasn''t an idiot either. She immediately realized that the medicine was either arranged by the old Madame or by the First Lady. Whatever the old Madame did, she definitely wouldn''t do it herself, only the First Lady ¡­ Maybe it was something the old Madame instructed!


    When the news of Third Wife''s pregnancy reached the Xi Mansion, the old Madame said with a dark expression, "Since she''s already pregnant, then bring her back."


    First Lady felt dizzy. She did not expect Third Wife to be so lucky. If she knew earlier, she would have killed the child and the adults. " Yes, my daughter-in-law will ask someone to invite Third Wife back. "

    "Third Wife, is Third Wife here? "Open the door! Open the door!" Knocking sounds came from outside the courtyard. It was one of First Lady''s mother: Phoebe. Phoebe was here to help First Lady. As long as there were any matters outside, she would personally send Phoebe over.


    Phoebe was very trusted and relied on like the Wang Ma. Seeing that she didn''t see the old Madame at all, the Third Wife in the room smiled coldly.


    Mother Fang rubbed her hands together and laughed: "Alright, someone is here to vent our anger. Madame, let me vent this out for you."


    "Aunty, Phoebe is a capable person beside First Lady, cutting off her left and right arms is not that simple. We are not in a rush to do this, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so let''s show First Lady our prowess today." The Third Wife would not be as impetuous as the Mother Fang. She was still carrying a child, and messing with the First Lady at a time like this was not good for her at all. Furthermore, the Old Madame was still standing on her side.


    "Fine, whatever Madame says is fine. Yue''er, look at Madame, I will open the door." The nanny immediately rushed to open the door, yelling, "Who is it? Who is it?"


    "Hehehe, it''s my Mother Fang, my Phoebe." Phoebe''s voice was filled with kindness and flattery. This was a method that she had used when she was out on a trip, and adding on her smile that was as amiable as Wang Ma''s, it was very easy to handle.


    "Oh, so it''s Phoebe. I really don''t dare to stop you." Mother Fang sarcastically opened the door. Third Wife and First Lady had fought for so many years, and the few of them had also fought openly and secretly.


    Phoebe ''hehehe'' laughed: "Mother Fang, you''re going to kill me with these words of yours." When he opened the door, Phoebe had a simple and honest smile, making people want to relax their guards. This Phoebe was only doing it on the surface, but in reality, his hands were stained with blood and lives.


    "I don''t dare to kill you. I''m just speaking the truth." Mother Fang pursed her lips and looked at Phoebe in dissatisfaction: "What are you doing here?"


    "Old Madame said that now that Third Wife is pregnant, it is not easy for him to stay in the villa to recuperate. Shouldn''t we invite him back?" Phoebe did not mention anything about First Lady, she knew very well that if she were to mention First Lady, Mother Fang would definitely torment herself, and directly bring out Old Madame, wouldn''t that be great?


    "Old Madame''s instructions." Mother Fang nodded: "Come in then."


    She looked behind her. Other than the Old Madame and the servants in the First Lady''s courtyard, there were also servants in their courtyard. These few female servants were one of the perpetrators that day.


    Phoebe immediately brought people to pay respects to Third Wife. Third Wife''s Qi and blood were good, and her face was rosy and her mood was good. She laid on the imperial concubine''s bed and smiled as she looked at them. At least, Phoebe did not notice any of her emotions, and she seemed to be the same as the octagonal Third Wife in Xi Mansion ¡­


    "Phoebe is here." Third Wife lazily said, his voice was gentle, and it didn''t reveal the kind of feminine charm and laziness he had expected. This was something First Lady didn''t expect, maybe it was because of this reason that Third Wife was so doted on, Phoebe thought to himself.


    "This old servant greets Old Madame." Phoebe bowed towards Third Wife, and the servants behind him also bowed together. Third Wife looked at the last three servants who had timid and frightened expressions, and killing intent flashed past his eyes.


    This time, the person who harmed her was someone from her own courtyard. How could she not hate him?


    "Hehe, get up!" Third Wife laughed and said. Phoebe stood up and explained the reason why he was here, his smile did not waver: "Thank you old Madame for thinking so much about me, Xiao''er, go and pack up my things, then follow me back to my house."


    "Yes." Le leaves.


    Phoebe''s originally laughing face became serious: "Third Wife, this old servant will bring a few people over to Third Wife for punishment."


    Those three people had already been brought out and immediately knelt on the ground. One of the old granny immediately spoke up: "Third Wife, Third Wife has made you feel wronged, it''s all their fault. It''s all their fault, it''s all their fault for angering Third Wife. The two of you are not going to apologize to Third Wife. "


    The one who spoke was the mother of the Zhao Family, who had her trust. Normally, she would believe these words, but now that she had clearly seen her face, how could she be stupid enough to believe her?


    Cui Hua and the Cheng family mother looked at Old Zhao in unison. The Old Cheng''s family immediately said: "You angered people, don''t listen to this old lady''s words. Everything was her.


    "Third Wife, this old servant doesn''t have any." Patriarch Zhao immediately cried out that he had been wronged. He looked wronged, as if he had suffered the biggest grievance in the world. He really knew how to act.


    "Hehe, are you truly wronged?" Third Wife''s smile did not change: "Are you sure you''re not mistaken?"


    Old Zhao''s family immediately came. "This old servant was also wrong, it was this old servant''s stupidity that didn''t send out the trick, otherwise ¡­" Otherwise... Third Wife wouldn''t have nearly lost their child either. " As he spoke, he began to sob, as if he truly cared about his master''s consolation.


    "Yes, it''s because of your ignorance." Third Wife sneered: "The three of you are the main culprits, I cannot let you off lightly. Nanny, I''ll leave these three to you. We can''t let them off easy. "


    "Yes." The wet nurse laughed, causing the three of them to be scared out of their wits.


    The Third Wife could not do anything to the Old Madame, nor could she do to the First Lady.


    "Men, tie them all up for me." Mother Fang immediately let out a loud cry. Old Zhao''s soul was scared out of his body, he knew that he would not be able to escape this crisis, and immediately said: "Third Wife, Third Wife, this has nothing to do with this old servant. This old servant is innocent, innocent ah."


    Mother Fang laughed coldly: "Innocent? "If you ask them innocently, you will know. Tell me, who was the one who instigated this?"


    Cui Hua and the Cheng family immediately said at the same time, "It''s the Old Zhao family, it''s her. She instigated us to do this kind of thing, we were tricked by her. Third Wife... We lost our minds for a moment, and just because the lard covered our hearts, you guys will forgive us. "


    "Forgive you? You gluttonous dog, could it be that you guys, who are the benefactors of the Third Wife, are blind to do such a disgraceful thing? You almost caused the baby in the Third Wife to be taken away, can you bear these crimes? "


    The more Mother Fang talked, the angrier she got. When she thought about how her son had almost missed out on their relationship, she hated it so much that her teeth itched.


    The Mother Fang got her trapped up, and without a word, she slapped her across the face, slapping her full of energy, "You dogs, Madame has always been nice to you, have you guys eaten all your mothers'' hearts? Today, let''s see if I won''t beat all of you to death. "


    Mother Fang had slapped them twenty times with ruthless hands. In a short while, they were all bleeding profusely from their mouths as they cried out and were no longer able to speak.


    "Our Third Wife is from a prestigious clan, so we are on equal footing with the First Lady''s family. Just because you respect our First Lady, do you look down on us, the Third Wife? Although Third Wife is a Madame, and is also an equal wife, all of you dog eyes are looking down on lowly beasts! "


    The Mother Fang pointed at them and cursed them. The Phoebe pretended not to hear anything, and the people in the Old Madame''s courtyard did the same.


    "Hmph, drag it out, beat it up for me, it won''t be too much even if you beat them to death. They are actually the sons of the Master, even if it means their lives are not worth it." Mother Fang let out a cold snort, and gasped for air as big as a cow.


    As the three of them were dragged down, the Third Wife sighed, "Nanny, you are really something. I am carrying a child, why must you do such a good deed for me?"


    Mother Fang slapped her forehead. "Aiya, it''s all my fault that this old lady has been anxious and confused. Don''t worry, I won''t take their lives." It would only make them live worse than die.


    Seeing that the situation was good enough, Phoebe said: "Third Wife, let''s go." Third Wife nodded. At this time, happiness had also come, the things had already been packed properly. Mother Fang helped her stand up carefully. Third Wife was also very nervous.


    The people here were all from the First Lady and Old Madame. If the Old Madame wanted to make a move, she would definitely not be able to defeat them. However ¡­ Half of the Third Wife was not worried, as everyone could see that the old Madame wanted to hug her grandson. Xi Hong Sheng had more sons and daughters, of course he would keep his eyes on the child in her stomach.


    First Lady probably did not dare to make a move, since she was the most suspicious one since she was the one. She would not do such a thing ¡­ But who knows? If she had such thoughts and meticulous plans, it would be easy for her to take the lives of her and her child.


    "Nanny, you must be fully alert on this journey. Nothing can go wrong." Third Wife whispered in his ear.


    "Don''t worry, Nanny knows." Mother Fang nodded her head and said solemnly.


    The carriage had already stopped outside and everyone carefully escorted her to the carriage. The carriage was arranged very well, with thick cushions, it was not easy to sit comfortably because of the bumpiness of the carriage. Phoebe climbed onto the carriage and smiled: "This old servant has already instructed the coachman to drive the carriage slowly. I reckon that by the time I return, it would already be dark. If there''s anything wrong with the Third Wife, please tell me. The carriage at the back has already prepared a doctor. "


    "Heh, it seems like she is wary of others. Someone is wary of her." Third Wife said indifferently: "Then I will be troubling you. Let''s go."

 C56

    The carriage moved very slowly. Third Wife lifted the carriage and looked out the window at the scenery for a while, then suddenly recalled that when she was young, she had lifted up the curtain when she was young. It was at this time that she met Xi Hong Sheng ¡­ Xi Hong Sheng... Did she love this man? At first, she loved him, but later on, she could not help herself anymore. She struggled to gain status in the compound, trying to curry favor with the man she no longer loved.


    "Madame, the wind outside is too strong ¡­" She looked at Third Wife with a sad expression, as if she was trying to recall something. Of course, these memories were definitely not good stuff. They were already on the way back to the residence, and had to start all over again. The never-ending war with the First Lady was about to begin again.


    "It''s fine, the scenery outside is pretty good, I haven''t seen it very often." How could there be such a beautiful scenery after returning to the mansion? Third Wife''s heart became incomparably desolate. Xi Mansion, even though the girls wanted to go in, but she couldn''t. Many of the women in the household envied her doting, and even the First Lady was jealous of her being doted on. But only she knew how much she didn''t want to continue, and for the sake of her child ¡­ As a mother, it was better to think for her child no matter what she said. Moreover, there was still a child in her womb ¡­


    "Hehe, since Madame likes it, then this old servant shall instruct the coachman to slow down." Phoebe smiled and knocked on the carriage door, telling the coachman to drive slower. He had no choice but to accept her as an intelligent person, as he tried to figure out what was going on in his mind. And because of this, one could see that there was a way to rule the people in the First Lady.


    "Save me ¡­" "Save me ¡­" Suddenly, the carriage stopped. Phoebe frowned: "What happened?" But this coachman had been driving for more than ten years, so this kind of thing shouldn''t have happened. If she had been delayed back to the house, the old Madame and the old Madame would have scolded her.


    "Phoebe, there''s a woman lying down on the road. She''s calling for help ¡­" The coachman said.


    Third Wife lifted the curtain and saw that there was indeed a white clothed female lying in front of the carriage. Third Wife frowned. Maybe it was because beautiful women hated beautiful women too, but she did not like this woman!


    "Send her to me, we still need to return to the residence." Third Wife said indifferently: "The coachman is a barbarian. Nanny, go and send her away for me. Look at me and be annoyed."


    Originally, he wanted to let the Phoebe go, but he was afraid that something bad might happen, so he decided to let the Mother Fang go. Not long later, the Mother Fang actually brought this girl to her, and the Mother Fang laughed: "Third Wife, this girl is homeless.


    Third Wife was stunned, did she not understand what he meant? He had told her to chase this woman away, not bring her back, so he frowned slightly. "Nanny, how was I angered just now? Did you not understand?"


    "Hehe, isn''t this old servant looking at her pitifully? You can also be considered to be doing good deeds for the little Young Master that is in your womb, right? " Mother Fang grinned, pretended not to see Third Wife''s hint, and asked: "Phoebe, what do you think about this matter?"


    Phoebe looked at the lady from head to toe. She was very beautiful with fair skin and good temperament.


    "This... I''m afraid not. " In the end, the Phoebe was thoughtful. What did this house fear the most? It was a beautiful woman entering the mansion! This was also what the First Lady dreaded the most.


    Mother Fang''s eyes flashed, and she chuckled: "Just treat it as doing a good deed, Third Wife is a child that came here with difficulty, we are grateful to the heavens for showing mercy, if we can do more good deeds now, we will ensure the child''s safety. Third Wife has even planned to return to the temple to pray for Buddha''s blessings. "


    Phoebe''s smile did not change, and he nodded: "Then let her follow us." But since it was like this, the carriage became crowded. Phoebe initially wanted to ask the unfamiliar white clothed female to come to the carriage at the back, but the white clothed female held tightly onto Mother Fang''s sleeves, shrinking herself behind the carriage in fear. She could only say: "This old servant will go to the carriage at the back."


    He could curry favor with the carriage at the back, and he could enjoy the treatment of being served, unlike here, where he had to serve the Third Wife tea and see her expression. Thinking about it this way, he felt that it was worth it to sit in the carriage at the back. In any case, with so many people watching, it wouldn''t be a big deal.


    When Phoebe left, he immediately asked, "Nanny, what are you doing? You don''t know where this woman is from, but you can let her follow us without worrying."


    Mother Fang made a ''soft'' gesture: "Madame, this was arranged by Ninth Miss."


    "Ninth Miss?" Third Wife was stunned.


    The white haired girl said smilingly, "Yes, Servant was ordered by Ninth Miss to wait upon ''Xi Hong Sheng'' and the other Third Wife during their pregnancy. My mission could be considered as completed. Third Wife can be rest assured, my indenture contract is still in your hands, you definitely won''t do anything reckless.


    The white clothed female had completely lost her previous attractive appearance. It was basically an act, Third Wife carefully evaluated her beauty, her elegant and refined beauty, she knew that if she was pregnant, in that aspect, she would definitely not be able to satisfy Xi Hong Sheng, and at that time, First Lady could take advantage of her, and might not be able to turn her body for the rest of her life.


    With this woman here, perhaps she could think of a way to win Xi Hong Sheng''s heart over, but ¡­ Is it safe? Why would a woman like her agree to Ninth Miss''s request?


    As if she understood what she was thinking, the woman smiled, "I was born in a brothel, and a man lied to me and said that he wanted to help me redeem myself, so he took me far away. I believed him. It''s a pity that he wanted to sell me to the nobles for fun ¡ª Pet, if I didn''t obey him, I would torture me, I coincidentally met with the Ninth Miss when I was escaping, I had an agreement with him, as long as we complete what the Ninth Miss said, she would give me 100,000 silver coins and let me have my freedom in life. I have calculated, Madame, you are already five months pregnant, I can endure another five months, and I will earn a hundred thousand silver taels.


    What! A hundred thousand taels of silver ¡­


    Third Wife, Mother Fang and the silent Cui Hua all stared with their eyes wide open. One hundred thousand! Could it be that Wei Guogong gave it to her? That is very possible.


    Wei Guogong only had this one relative, everything he had wasn''t Xi Jiu Er''s ¡­ The Third Wife thought about how generous the Ninth Miss was, and felt a sense of warmth in her heart. Even if she knew that Xi Jiu Er was doing this to the First Lady, she wanted her beloved to continue fighting to the death with the First Lady. But ¡ª she was still inexplicably touched, because there was more than one way to achieve her goal. And the Ninth Miss gave her this benefit.


    "Madame, this is a secret between us, we cannot let the fourth person know, because if the fourth person knows about what Ninth Miss has to say, the first person will be the one to take Cui Hua''s life! This is because Ninth Miss believes that Mother Fang will definitely not return the Third Wife''s reasoning. " The lady in white smiled as she looked at Cui Hua, whose face had turned ashen.


    Cui Hua shook her head fiercely. "I won''t, Servant won''t tell anyone even if I am beaten to death."


    "You can think about it for yourself." The lady in white withdrew her eyes and laughed: "Third Wife, you can call me Yan Er."


    Yan Er, like her name, was a beautiful woman.


    Third Wife nodded: "I hope Miss Yan Er can fulfill her promise!" She was just afraid that Yan Er might be too greedy and wouldn''t leave.


    Yan Er smiled faintly: "Don''t worry Madame, Ninth Miss has already said that if I don''t leave, she will send me away, and if I return it, she will kill me." Pausing for a moment, she said, "I believe that Ninth Miss is able to do it."


    Everyone was stunned. Since when did the Ninth Miss become so violent and bloody? But it also happened to resolve the worries of the Third Wife. Third Wife could be considered completely relaxed now.


    Yan Er said softly, "Mother Fang, can you roughly tell me about the situation in the manor?"


    Mother Fang quickly replied: "Okay, no problem."


    Thereafter, Mother Fang told Yan Er about all the people in the residence, especially the enemies of the Third Wife. She listed them all, which meant that while the Third Wife was pregnant, Yan Er''s mission was to keep an eye on these restless women.


    Both Mother Fang and Third Wife believed in Xi Jiu Er. After all, Xi Jiu Er had saved the child in Third Wife''s womb, not only did she not say anything about it! But their savior.


    Yan Er listened carefully, and after hearing everything, she nodded her head: "I understand, Third Wife, during this period of time, you have to take good care of the child in your womb. Ninth Miss said that First Lady will definitely think of a way to return the child who harmed you to you and make you be careful. Xi Wan Rong also did the same... Especially the three of them! Mother Fang, Ninth Miss wants me to tell you this. If there is anything wrong with Third Wife, do not look for a doctor, and search for ¡ª Ninth Miss. You must be very careful and not let anyone find out about it. "


    "Don''t worry, Ninth Miss said she won''t harm you. She said that if she wants to harm you, she will have a chance at any time." Yan Er said indifferently. Third Wife and Yi Ling both nodded. At that time, Third Wife almost lost the child in her womb. Ninth Miss saved her life, and they guessed that Ninth Miss was the one who learned medicine? And with extraordinary medical skills?

 C57

    By the time Third Wife returned to his residence, the sun was already about to set, and by this time, Xi Hong Sheng had already returned from work. When he heard Third Wife had returned, he immediately went to receive her without regard for his status, and nearly bit all of First Lady''s silver teeth into pieces.


    Just as he walked out of his room, he saw Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong walking in. Xi Wan Rong asked curiously: "Father, where are you planning to go now?"


    Xi Wan Feng''s eyes swept past his parents as he roughly understood something. He chuckled and said softly, "Father should be paying respects to Grandmother at this time. When daughter heard from Grandmother earlier, she also heard from him that father!" She was hinting to Xi Hong Sheng that the old Madame was already looking for a stage, he had to take this opportunity to defend himself.


    Even though they did not say it on the surface, Xi Hong Sheng had not been as diligent as before in paying respects. The old Madame hated the Third Wife to the core, if not for concubinage, the relationship between him and her son for so many years wouldn''t have ended up like this!


    Of course, other than resenting the Third Wife, she also resented the White Lady. This little slut only knew how to use those dirty methods to win over the man''s heart, it was truly shameless. Otherwise, how could she, herself, wrongly accuse the Third Wife, and make her son hate her? Was it not because of the White Lady?


    The more time passed, the more the old Madame targeted the White Lady that she was close to with her hatred, it would not be good if the old Madame realised that the old First Lady was actually here to deal with him, and get rid of him. Thus, the disaster was brought to the Third Wife, more or less, it was the Third Wife instigating discord, purposely fending off the relationship between mother and son, which was the reason for the current situation.


    It was probably because of old age that the old Madame was sometimes smart and sometimes confused, especially when it came to things related to his son. She had only one son in her life and had always protected him. Even if she got married and had children, she wouldn''t spare any effort to help him. She only wanted to give him peace in the backyard. How she wished that her son was still the same son from before. She wanted to listen to everything he said, but she also cared for him.


    Being infuriated by First Lady like that caused her to feel resentment towards him. If not for the fact that she was pregnant with a child, she would not have allowed him to return. Ever since Third Wife had entered the room, the old Madame had been thinking carefully about everything. It was indeed because the Third Wife had come, that the relationship between mother and son had started to become distant from each other. He knew that thinking about that woman all day long, all these years, could it be that he still not think enough?


    [People are coming back. Why don''t you find a way to build a relationship with your son?] She knew that Xi Wan Feng was intelligent, and must have understood the logic behind it.


    Before Xi Hong Sheng could say anything, he was snatched away by the First Lady. "That''s right, your father is going to see the old Madame."


    Xi Hong Sheng''s mouth was agape. He couldn''t exactly suggest that he see his concubine in front of his own daughter, right? He went along with First Lady''s topic: "That''s right, I''ll go see your Grandmother!"


    "Father, then hurry up and go." Xi Wan Feng said as he stepped aside and smiled faintly, giving himself a look that didn''t leave a mark on him. First Lady gave a faint smile, her daughter was truly intelligent, unlike the little girl that he had worried so much about.


    As Xi Hong Sheng was walking to the courtyard of the old Madame, he coincidentally met Xi Jiu Er. When Xi Jiu Er found out that he was looking for the old Madame, he said: "My daughter heard that the Third Wife had brought back a lady. That lady is very beautiful!"


    "Miss?" Xi Hong Sheng was a little curious.


    "That''s right, if father is curious, why don''t you go take a look? If I haven''t seen you in such a long time, I will definitely miss you. Also, my little brother in the Third Wife also misses me." ''s words moved Xi Hong Sheng. Forget it, there was still a need to go to mother''s side and take a look.


    Xi Hong Sheng and Xi Jiu Er happened to meet First Lady, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng at the entrance. Xi Wan Rong immediately shouted, "Father, didn''t you go to see the Grandmother? Why are you back? "


    First Lady and Xi Wan Feng on the other hand, stared at Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er''s innocent face made First Lady a little suspicious. Hmph, as long as you get involved with Xi Jiu Er, you will ruin my plans.


    Xi Hong Sheng said indifferently: "Rong Er, you ask too many questions." Mother Fang alighted from the carriage and bowed to everyone, lifting up the curtain and saying softly: "Third Wife, slow down, be careful."


    "Thank you, nurse." Her voice carried Su Mei as usual, and when Xi Hong Sheng heard her voice, he was stirred up. When First Lady heard her voice, he started to feel worse, his face was filled with gritted teeth and he obviously hated her to death, yet he still pretended to be nice to her and act like she was a good person.


    Xi Wan Feng said in a neutral tone, "It''s such a coincidence that Ninth Sister came over with Father."


    Xi Jiu Er pretended not to hear the meaning behind her words and laughed: "That''s right, when I came to see father, he wanted to see Third Wife, and asked if I would be coming with him, so I came over. Speaking of which, I haven''t seen Third Wife in a long time. Third Wife seems to be much better looking than before. " She pointed at Third Wife who was getting off the carriage.


    It was true that the Third Wife had changed, and had become much more beautiful than before. She was even more charming than when she was at home, and logically speaking, pregnant women would be ugly, but this time, not only did the Third Wife not turn ugly, he had become more attractive to men. Xi Hong Sheng was immediately captivated by the Third Wife''s beauty, which was filled with pregnant women.


    First Lady took a cold breath and Xi Wan Feng said in a low voice, "mother, she is pregnant with a child now ¡­" This meant that since he was pregnant and he couldn''t follow Xi Hong Sheng, Xi Hong Sheng could only watch.


    The First Lady nodded and smiled, then went forward to welcome him. "You''re back, have you had a hard time?"


    Third Wife, who was half-lying in''s embrace, lightly smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, First Lady. As he said that, he placed his hand on his slightly bulging lower abdomen. Xi Hong Sheng couldn''t help but stroke his lower abdomen as well.


    Seeing this scene, First Lady could only smile faintly. After Third Wife married into the First Lady, she was already immune to the love of two people showing each other. Right now, her only thought was how she could kill Third Wife along with her children.


    "First Lady, Master, I brought a lady here. I still think that I am pregnant with children, how about you let this lady serve Master, Miss Yan Er?" Her smooth skin was white and tender under the sunlight, but to be able to make First Lady jealous. After she had given birth to her son, her face had grown many spots, and using a lot of medicinal ingredients to eat had no effect ¡­


    "Yes." The sound was as clear as the sound of spring water. With a lift of the curtain, a white-clothed woman with hair as black as ink, eyes like a painting, lips as warm, skin as white ¡­ It was as if the beauty that came out of the painting was captivating.


    "Yan Er greets Master Xi, First Lady Xi, Great Miss Xi, Second Miss Xi, Ninth Miss Xi." Yan Er bowed to all of the innocent people, her actions extremely obedient.


    First Lady smiled: "You recognize us?" There was doubt and anger in her eyes. Good thing you, Third Wife, actually thought of this method to stabilize your beloved.


    Yan Er smiled sweetly, as if she was a fairy from the nine heavens. There was no smoke or dust, and even the most beautiful Xi Wan Rong was unable to compare to her beauty. Her laugh, immediately caused the surroundings to lose colour, other than Xi Jiu Er, everyone else could not help but look at her beauty, Xi Hong Sheng was even more surprised.


    "Heh heh, today is the first time Yan Er has seen the first time she has ever answered the question of First Lady. Just a moment ago, Third Wife had already guessed what First Lady was trying to say. The two young girls by her side, especially this Miss whose beauty is rarely seen by Yan Er, should not be difficult to guess at, and this Ninth Miss would be even easier to do. Other than her biological daughter, the only other person who can come with First Lady is Ninth Miss. " Because they were not qualified to give birth to a concubine.


    "Good, what an exquisite girl." Xi Hong Sheng was immediately attracted by Yan Er. First Lady''s chest rose up and down, he was probably extremely angry, but Third Wife beside him did not have much feelings for him. Look, men were like this. He pretended to cough and reminded Xi Hong Sheng who had lost his composure that his daughters were still at the side.


    "Hehehe ¡­" "Everyone, there''s no need to stand outside. Come in, everyone. Come in." Xi Hong Sheng supported Third Wife, but intentionally or unintentionally looked towards Yan Er''s direction, while Yan Er bashfully replied, and looked at Xi Hong Sheng, her heart itching.


    Slut! The more beautiful a woman was, the longer they would like her. She had spent a lot of time training and training the White Lady that she found, but this Yan Er could directly compete with her.


    Along the way back, everyone returned to their own courtyards. Xi Wan Feng said to mother: "mother, did you see the relationship between Xi Jiu Er and that Yan Er just now? They seem to have known each other for a long time! "


    "Is that so?" The First Lady frowned: "If that''s really the case, then does this mean that this matter was arranged by Xi Jiu Er? First Lady was not sure, but he realized that his youngest daughter, Xi Wan Rong, was fuming. "mother, daughter does not like her, daughter hates her." The reason was because Yan Er was too beautiful, and was a type of threat to her, a kind of silent threat. She hated Yan Er, and hated him a lot.

 C58

    Just now, she had sent someone over to ask her to apologize to the Third Wife in front of Xi Hong Sheng. Her attitude must be sincere and serious, or else she would never get favored by Xi Hong Sheng again.


    Originally, White Lady was unwilling to go, but he was somewhat unwilling. After thinking about it for a while, she decided to apologize, although it was extremely embarrassing for him, but after all, he did not need to worry about losing a piece of meat. How to obtain Xi Hong Sheng''s love and how to win her over was the key.


    She was prettier than the Third Wife, more capable than the Third Wife in serving men. Since the Third Wife was still pregnant with children, she must seize this opportunity! As for the thought of putting Third Wife to death, she was very confident, but she also didn''t think that First Lady, a man with such capabilities, had never seen him deal with the Nanu people in the past decade.


    Therefore, it was better for the maidservants to dress up their own beauty. The maidservant Liu Zhi advised, "Madame is not allowed, the old Madame will let you reflect on it, you are dressing up now to see Master and Third Wife, how will you look like you are reflecting on yourself, why not dress up thinner ¡­"


    White Lady thought that this made sense, and hurriedly nodded his head. "Alright, let''s do it. If she let Xi Hong Sheng follow Third Wife to her courtyard, then it would definitely be difficult for her to see Xi Hong Sheng! In the end, she was still one step too late. Xi Hong Sheng had already gone to Third Wife''s courtyard.


    No matter how unwilling White Lady was, she had to do it. If she were to lose the love and love of a man, her life in the manor would be lived by others, and anyone could step on her to humiliate her.


    White Lady brought Liu Zhi to Third Wife''s courtyard. When the person came to report to him, Mother Fang immediately scolded: "What is she doing here? Tell her that Third Wife has worked hard all the way. Let her quickly return." The Mother Fang resented the White Lady and snorted coldly before returning to her room to wait upon him.


    Inside the room, Xi Hong Sheng held Third Wife''s hand and said softly, "Was it my illusion that you were much more beautiful than before?" No, the skin is better than before, smooth, people have a spirit.


    Third Wife did not know the reason either, and said happily: "Hehe, probably because of the water and soil on the manor." Third Wife could only find this reason. The two of them chatted for a while, but when Third Wife saw that he was distracted, his eyes wandered around randomly and he knew what he was thinking.


    "Master will rest here tonight." Third Wife said in a soft voice, "Yan Er can serve Master."


    Xi Hong Sheng could not help but feel embarrassed, he was already able to see through what the Third Wife was thinking, and nodded: "Alright, I can talk to you later, sigh. "I''ve made you suffer ¡­"


    "It''s not hard, it''s not hard. As long as Master has a concubine in his heart, even if I were to go to the Desolate Lands, I would be willing to do so ¡­" Third Wife choked with emotions: "Master, even if you have a new person, you can''t forget about me, okay?"


    Every man liked the fact that they were the best existence in the heart of women. The most important man, as long as he left their side, he would not be able to live.


    Xi Hong Sheng immediately promised, "In my heart, there will never be anyone who can replace you. Even if the Heavenly Immortal comes, there will be no substitute ¡­" He preferred to express her jealousy directly towards women.


    Third Wife finally revealed a smile, "With these words from Master, I am very happy, very happy ¡­ Master, do you wish for me to give birth to a son or a daughter this time? " She wanted to be a daughter, to have both children.


    "Hehe, it doesn''t matter if you have children or have children." Xi Hong Sheng smiled, just as the two were about to say something sweet, they suddenly heard Mother Fang''s voice, it seemed to be very noisy outside, Xi Hong Sheng said unhappily: "What happened outside."


    The Mother Fang lifted the curtain and took off the anger, "Master, it''s White Lady outside, she said that she wants to see Madame, this old servant thinks that Madame must be tired after driving the carriage, and told White Lady to come again another day, but the White Lady refused to forgive him, so he ended up kneeling outside the courtyard, saying that he wanted to apologize to Madame."


    Xi Hong Sheng did not like White Lady at all, and scolded him: "Does she even have the face to come? I don''t want to see her. "


    Mother Fang accepted his orders and went out to tell her everything Xi Hong Sheng had said. When he heard it, White Lady immediately shouted, "Nonsense, Master would definitely not speak to me like this, you must be the dog slave who spread the rumors." Of course, White Lady would not believe that Xi Hong Sheng had said those words. The words Xi Hong Sheng had said to him in the past were all spoken in a whisper, it was definitely said by this old lady.


    Mother Fang''s expression changed. She was Third Wife''s wet nurse, even Xi Hong Sheng would give her some face, but he never thought that a small White Lady would actually call her a dog slave.


    "Is that so? This old servant doesn''t dare to spread rumors, so I don''t know if Master is right or not. This old servant is just a servant, whatever Master says, this old servant will pass on it, there won''t be a single word of it. " Mother Fang glanced at White Lady sarcastically, the disgust in his eyes immediately provoked White Lady.


    She was still an official Madame, how could she be looked down upon by an old granny? Without saying anything further, she stood up and intended to punch towards Mother Fang: "Damn old granny, see if I can tear your mouth to shreds."


    White Lady is beautiful, but what a pity ¡­ However, her temper was fiery. A little bit of it was enough to ignite her.


    Mother Fang immediately took a step back to dodge White Lady''s palm attack. She sneered: "White Lady, this old servant advises you to calm down. Master is still inside the house.


    "Mother Fang, what happened?" A clear and beautiful voice came out. Everyone looked towards the direction where the voice came from to see Yan Er, who was already dressed up, appearing gracefully in their line of sight. Mother Fang was not only emotional, the woman that Ninth Miss had found was extremely beautiful.


    White Lady asked curiously: "Who is she?"


    Mother Fang was really hard to introduce to Yan Er, since she was introduced to him by Ninth Miss, she did not speak for a while, and saying that they were now in a room, she did not seem to be pleasant to hear, thus she fell silent.


    Yan Er smiled generously, "I was brought back by Third Wife to serve you."


    What? White Lady''s eyes widened, including all the servants in the courtyard who heard him, they were all staring. It was suitable for such a beautiful person to be the main wife, why, why ¡­


    White Lady couldn''t take it anymore, because this woman was many times more beautiful than him. She was so beautiful that she looked like a fairy. The White Lady felt that she would like this kind of man a lot, especially Xi Hong Sheng who would like him a lot. "Great, great, great ¡­" You Third Wife actually had this idea!


    White Lady waited for Yan Er to act like she was about to eat the other party, but Yan Er only smiled and treated him like an ornament, and playfully looked at White Lady, with a teasing look in her eyes. White Lady didn''t know what kind of wind blew, but she actually pounced forward, waving her long fingernails, probably wanting to scrape the opponent''s face.


    "Bitch. Bitch. See how I''ll shave your coquettish face." White Lady ignored everything and rushed over, and was immediately stopped by Mother Fang. How could Mother Fang dare to let White Lady touch Yan Er?


    "Let go of me, let go!" The White Lady scolded, and in the process of pushing, his legs slanted and he fell to the ground. Mother Fang looked at her with a cold smile, as if she was being mocked. Not only that, she felt that everyone she was with was laughing at her.


    "What are you still standing around for? Can''t you help me?" sighed. Why was her life so bad, serving this little ancestor?


    "What are you doing!" With an angered shout, Xi Hong Sheng appeared. He looked at White Lady who was in a sorry state and shouted, "What are you doing here? Didn''t I ask you to go back to your own courtyard? Do you take my words to be a mere passing thought? "


    "Master ¡­" White Lady was frightened to the point that his body trembled. He was both wronged and scared as he said uneasily: "I know I was wrong. I came to apologize to big sister. I hope big sister can forgive me ¡­"


    Yan Er said indifferently: "I can''t tell what you are apologizing for, but I think that you are telling the truth after you come here. You clearly know how tired the Third Wife is, yet you still want to come and apologize? Not only are you baring your fangs and brandishing your claws to scrape my face, you even cursed loudly and dejectedly.


    "You!" Just as White Lady wanted to say something, he was scared stiff by Xi Hong Sheng''s pair of fierce eyes. His body trembled and he started crying, while his heart was filled with hatred towards Yan Er.


    Yan Er frowned: "White Lady, I think you should go back first, crying is not good for children."


    "Get the hell back here." Xi Hong Sheng felt that the White Lady''s words were extremely detestable, he really didn''t want to look at her again. The gentle woman from before seemed to be an illusion, and even now, her extremely alluring face made him feel extremely disgusted.


    The disgust on Xi Hong Sheng''s face deeply pierced the White Lady''s heart. Her head exploded with a bang, and all she was thinking was: What should I do? What should I do? Being hated, what should I do in the future?


    "Ah, Madame, you, you''re bleeding ¡­" The servant girl, who was just inches away from Liu Zhi, suddenly saw that her skirt was stained with blood and exclaimed in shock. She attracted everyone''s attention, while White Lady had a look of bewilderment and did not know why he was bleeding.

 C59

    "Blood?" She raised her head and looked at Xi Hong Sheng in astonishment, hoping that the other party would take care of her by chance. It was a pity ¡­ She was disappointed. What she saw was Xi Hong Sheng''s emotionless and heartless expression, the man who had spoken to her in a low voice and said that he liked her ¡­


    "Master ¡­" It was as if she had lost something very important, and she stared at Xi Xi Hong Sheng with a little trepidation. "This humble one, this humble one feels very uncomfortable ¡­"


    "Unwell? I''m afraid it''s just another trick you put up. " Xi Hong Sheng didn''t believe the woman in front of him, he felt that she was definitely trying to trick him. A man was played by a woman once. He did not want to play with her twice. This would be too embarrassing.


    "Master... My stomach hurts so much ¡­ "So painful ¡­" White Lady held his stomach. Not only did his stomach ache, his heart ached with pain. Liu Zhi immediately supported his White Lady and said: "Men, quickly look for my First Lady, for my First Lady!"


    Finally, an old granny went to find a doctor under the instructions of the Mother Fang. Xi Hong Sheng was still planning to stay the night to enjoy the wonderful taste of Yan Er. Hurry and take her back to the courtyard! "


    "Yes." Liu Zhi looked at the White Lady who had a disheartened expression and felt a little pity for her. She whispered, "Madame, let''s leave quickly. How can we recover if our bodies are injured ¡­"


    The White Lady was carried away by Liu Zhi, but no one was willing to carry her! Mother Fang looked at her sad back and felt really relieved. Hmph, to let a woman like you who has a venomous heart hurt others.


    When White Lady just walked out of the courtyard, she met First Lady bringing him over. She was the owner of the house, and when Third Wife came back, she brought the bird''s nest ginsengs to see her, and just as they reached the entrance, they met White Lady. Seeing White Lady''s sorry state, they saw that she was bleeding again, so they asked while frowning: "What happened?"


    "First Lady, for some reason, White Lady started bleeding just fine ¡­" Liu Zhi immediately replied.


    White Lady looked at the people in the courtyard and saw the empty eyes of the White Lady. In the end, she could only give up and say, "Go and lend a hand. How could a maid like her have such strength?" Seeing that White Lady had been provoked, she decided not to go for now. She would ask the servant what had happened, but she had already guessed most of it.


    White Lady was supported by two people, her state of mind was in a daze, she felt that she was almost the same as a person. Her mind was filled with Xi Hong Sheng''s emotionless, arrogant expression, and that woman''s disdainful expression, they were all like needles piercing her heart, causing her heart to feel extremely uncomfortable.


    After arranging for the doctors of White Lady to come, the doctor announced a shocking piece of news: "Madame is pregnant. It''s a good thing that she was treated in time, if not the child would not have been protected."


    "You said she was pregnant?" First Lady frowned: "Are you sure about this?"


    Although the doctor hated it when people questioned him about his medical skills, he knew the First Lady. The person in front of him was the owner of the Xi Family, how could he dare to offend him? He then replied, "Yes, it has already been enough for a full month. However, the fetus is not stable, and I''m afraid it might be caused by some drug that was used previously."


    The First Lady nodded her head, she guessed that it was the same medicine handle as before. Seeing the doctor''s hesitant look, she indicated for him to speak later, the doctor immediately shut up and did not speak anymore.


    This subtle movement was not noticed by anyone. Hearing that he was pregnant for a full month, White Lady came back to life and grabbed the doctor''s arm, asking in disbelief, "Is it true? I''m pregnant, did you lie to me? "


    "Yes, Madame, you are pregnant. Remember not to get angry, it''s not good for the fetus." the doctor said.


    White Lady felt that the heavens had played a huge joke on her. One moment she was alone, and the next moment she had a child. What did it mean to have children? She could use children to stand at the feet of the Xi Family. She could also use children to keep Xi Hong Sheng''s heart.


    At this moment, she thanked the heavens. This was great.


    The doctor passed the formula to Liu Zhi, and the First Lady said with a stern expression: "From now on, I will leave the White Lady in your care. If anyone makes any mistakes, I will definitely not forgive you."


    Liu Zhi said with fear and trepidation, "Yes, this Servant will remember this in my heart." How did she understand the reason why First Lady valued the White Lady so much? It was not because the White Lady was a chess piece, opening up a path for the First Lady. of


    First Lady and the doctor walked to a secluded area, and the First Lady let the Wang Ma keep watch, he stared at the doctor and asked: "What did you want to say just now? "Now, speak ¡­"


    The doctor said: "Madame, I''m afraid this child is not easy to protect. As long as mother gets angry, if he gets angry, this child will definitely not be able to be saved." Therefore, he wanted to emphasize the importance of good mental and physical cultivation just now. He wanted to remember not to get angry, or else this child would have no chance at all.


    "Is that so?" First Lady nodded: "Wang Ma, send the doctor away."


    "Yes." Wang Ma sent the doctor back with a face full of deep thought. He whispered: "First Lady, what''s wrong?"


    First Lady told Wang Ma everything that he had said before. How could Wang Ma not understand his master? He immediately knew what Wang Ma was scheming and whispered: "Madame, are you trying to ¡­"


    "Go back." Since the First Lady had a plan, there was no need to see the Third Wife, so he brought the First Lady back. Little did she know that the conversation between the First Lady, the doctor, and the Wang Ma was heard by Xi Jiu Er so clearly. From her understanding of the First Lady, she was afraid ¡­ She was going to do something.


    In his previous life, Third Wife had already died at this time. As for this White Lady, he did not give birth to a child, but rather had one corpse and two lives. In other words, if not for the fact that there were no Third Wife s, the mother and son pair of White Lady s would have been killed ¡­ Then if there is a Third Wife, the First Lady will maximize the benefits.


    What would she do? First Lady''s favorite thing to do was to watch both sides suffer as she reaped benefits. She will definitely make White Lady and Third Wife ¡­ Xi Jiu Er thought of a possible plan that First Lady could come up with, until he saw Liu Xiang''s hands waving in front of her eyes, "Miss, what''s wrong?"


    At this time, the sky had already darkened. Xi Jiu Er who had just finished eating had brought Liu Xiang out for a stroll, and that was why he bumped into their conversation.


    "Nothing." Xi Jiu Er shook her head. On the way back, he heard someone crying outside. Xi Jiu Er did not want to meddle in other people''s business, so she planned to walk out. But I heard a conversation...


    "Wu wu, I don''t want to live anymore ¡­"


    "What nonsense are you talking about?"


    "You don''t know, this time the Great Miss is holding silver needles, very long silver ¡­"


    "Ah ¡­" Isn''t that an embroidery needle? "


    "No ¡­" Wuu wuu, if this goes on, I will die ¡­ "I will die ¡­"


    Silver needles? Xi Wan Feng? Could what the rumors said be true? Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought back to her previous life. She seemed to have heard that liked to stab people with needles, and once, accidentally stabbed someone blind. She did not know if it was true or not, but the servant did not seem to be able to find her.


    Looking at the conversation between the two servants today, it seemed to be true. The incident that year had caused quite a commotion, but no one had any proof, so they guessed that the First Lady must have killed off the people who knew about it, which protected Xi Wan Feng''s name.


    Hehehe ¡­ Xi Jiu Er revealed a demonic smile, she suddenly thought of a good idea.


    Returning back to the courtyard, Xi Jiu Er asked ex-sister-in-law to give the foetal antidote he prepared to Third Wife tomorrow. She also told her about the matter of White Lady''s unprotected fetus, telling her to be careful. The ex-sister-in-law responded!


    At night, Third Wife had long urged Xi Hong Sheng to bathe and change his clothes, saying that he had to rest well today when he was tired. Xi Hong Sheng felt a little embarrassed, after taking a shower, he immediately waited for the beauty to come knocking. Not long after, he heard a woman''s voice: "Master, did you rest? Third Wife has asked Servant to send you a supper. "


    The beauty is here! Instead of his usual anxious look, Xi Hong Sheng disguised himself and smiled as he opened the door. Borrowing the moonlight, he saw a woman in white standing in front of the door with a smile, like Chang''e, who came stepping on the moon.


    Heavens, this was the most beautiful person he had ever seen. She was so elegant and refined. Xi Hong Sheng quickly said: "Come in, come in." He stepped aside to allow Yan Er in, and immediately closed the door when the beautiful woman came in.


    "Master, this is the midnight snack Third Wife asked Servant to give you." After the door closed, Yan Er turned and smiled, her eyes sparkling as if she knew how to speak. Xi Hong Sheng felt that his heart was very itchy, but this one was like a fairy, he didn''t want to scare the fairy.


    "Master ¡­" Yan Er walked over step by step, then suddenly tilted his body and fell onto the ground. He exhaled heavily, "Master, tonight, Yan Er is yours ¡­ What do you want to do... "Everyone is fine ¡­" His delicate fingers drew circles on Xi Hong Sheng''s chest through his clothes, which could tickle Xi Hong Sheng.


    "Is that so?" Xi Hong Sheng was so happy, he wanted nothing more than to eat her, then pick her up and put her on the bed!


    The moonlight was bright and clear. The full moon hung in the night sky, looking exceptionally beautiful! Deep in the night, First Lady''s eyes were wide open. She had been married for so many years, and there was no one by her side, so other than a month of symbolic living here, Xi Hong Sheng spent the rest of his time fooling around in other women''s rooms.


    He was clearly her husband, her husband. She was alone! Thinking about it, First Lady started to cry ¡­ He bit the blanket and silently cried!

    On this day, First Lady''s nephew Ming Xuan came over. First Lady sighed, "This kid must have gotten into some trouble and came here to seek refuge." Although Ming Xuan had nominally come over, he had already gone out for drinks. First Lady didn''t find anyone all day ¡­


    "Where is Ming Xuan going?" First Lady asked lazily. She felt a headache coming on to this romantic nephew of hers, the sleeping wife was afraid of her brother''s punishment and ran away to hide, if it wasn''t for her love and love for him, she wouldn''t have done such a thing.


    "Young Master Ming Xuan brought a servant to the manor for a stroll. The last time he came was a few years ago." Wang Ma had not seen Ming Xuan for a long time and he was feeling extremely happy today as well.


    "Yes, it should be around two years ago ¡­" First Lady recalled to ask Ming Xuan to tell him not to cause trouble at the palace, at that time he wouldn''t be able to protect him.


    "Since Madame is tired, let''s sleep for a while. This old servant will tell him when Young Master comes back." Wang Ma said softly as he slept, in his heart he was thinking that this Little Hades might cause some big trouble, he only hoped that he would not cause trouble for Madame.


    The Ming Xuan that they were talking about had swaggered over to a secluded place, and after glancing left and right, he instructed a servant, "Take good care of Young Master''s wind, if you make a mistake, be careful of your skin." Ming Xuan''s face flashed fiercely.


    The servant boy felt bitter in his heart as he hurriedly said, "Young Master, I understand." When Ming Xuan turned and entered the Little Forest Courtyard, the servant''s face turned black, wailing for all he had done in his previous life to have such a perverted and daring master in his current life.


    He really did not put the Xi Family in his eyes at all. He actually touched the concubinage of the Seated Master. Amitabha Amitabha definitely did not want to be discovered, definitely did not!


    The manservant nearly kneeled down to kowtow. In the distance, Xi Jiu Er watched everything quietly. She did not need to guess to know what kind of stupid thing was going on, she was just curious about the woman in the house that even dared to seduce First Lady''s nephew. Perhaps ¡ª Even Ming Xuan might not be able to seduce him.


    She was afraid that when she tried to seduce Ming Xuan, she would already know that she had embarked on a dangerous path, but she could only find a way to survive.


    "White Lady ¡­" It was not like he had never met a woman who served a man like White Lady. He reckoned that the White Lady''s identity was one of the biggest reasons why Ming Xuan felt excited about it, because this was his brother-in-law''s woman.


    When the White Lady heard this voice, his body turned around like a young girl in love, bringing with him a young girl''s bashfulness.


    Not long after, Ming Xuan walked out of the small bamboo forest with a satisfied expression. The servant saw him and heaved a long sigh of relief before stepping forward, "Young Master."


    "Let''s go." Ming Xuan was in a very good mood, so he and the servant returned to the First Lady. After a while, White Lady came out with his hairpin, and saw that no one was around.


    "So it''s White Lady ¡­ "How audacious ¡­" Liu Xiang said with her eyes wide open.


    White Lady? Xi Jiu Er immediately knew that the reason the White Lady acted this way was not because of her loneliness. She definitely had her own plans. Xi Jiu Er told Liu Xiang to tell Third Wife of the good news, she was very happy to hear it.


    First Lady and White Lady plotting to kill Liu Er was a hidden pain in her heart, she would definitely take revenge. Unfortunately, she was unable to move the First Lady at the moment, and her target started from it. This time, not only did the White Lady get caught in this mess, the First Lady wanted to see this scene the most.


    There was no doubt that First Lady would choose between his nephew and White Lady. It would definitely be his nephew, so White Lady was probably of great use to her. Xi Hong Sheng had never entered her room before. Third Wife was more than enough to deal with White Lady, but how could she be so willing?


    On this day, Yan Er had ''reminded'' him that it was time for him to go see the White Lady. The reason was very simple.


    He doted on and fawned over him. He had a kind of flattery towards this Yan Er, but he was as beautiful as a fairy and his poems and songs were good, not only did he have to be dignified when he needed them, he was dignified when he needed them. This was exactly what Xi Hong Sheng wanted.


    Xi Hong Sheng unwillingly looked at White Lady, who knew that right after he walked into the courtyard, a black clothed man suddenly appeared, his speed was very fast, he immediately brushed past Xi Hong Sheng''s shoulder, and before Xi Hong Sheng could defend, he reacted: "Men, people, quickly come, there are thieves."


    Xi Hong Sheng was so frightened that he lost his square inch, the servant''s gaze was attracted to something on the ground: "Look Master, this ¡­"


    Xi Hong Sheng followed the direction in which he was pointing to, and saw an incomparably bright object lying on the ground. Xi Hong Sheng felt that this object was extremely familiar, and was even quite familiar with it.


    A bellyband! Where''s the woman''s apron?! White Lady''s undergarment! Xi Hong Sheng''s face back then! It was as dark as the night, how could he not recognize White Lady''s undergarment? There was even a white word embroidered on it, he had even seen this before ¡­ Xi Hong Sheng walked into the courtyard with big strides while wearing his undergarment, the servant girl in the courtyard was extremely frightened by Xi Hong Sheng''s loud howl just a moment ago, and now she saw Xi Hong Sheng bowing respectfully: "Here, greet Master."


    But in Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes, it was a completely different story. Xi Hong Sheng kicked the servant to the side, then pushed the door open. White Lady stood up in a panic, looking at her, Xi Hong Sheng felt guilty.


    "Slut!" Xi Hong Sheng ruthlessly slapped White Lady a few times and stunned him completely. He looked at Xi Hong Sheng at a loss what to do and was just about to laugh when the sun rose from the west and sent Xi Hong Sheng here. Before she could feel happy about it, she was already hit. She covered her face, unable to react as she said, "B-Master, who made you angry ¡­"


    "Bitch, look at what this is." Xi Hong Sheng threw the apron back to White Lady and accurately hit her face. White Lady picked it up and it exploded.


    Wasn''t this his undergarment? How could it be in the hands of the Master? He was really prepared to wear the undergarment to tempt Ming Xuan, but the servant said that he could not find it, which infuriated her, and beat his up to the point where he had to definitely find it, he could not throw away the things that the servant had wrapped around his, he knew this very well.


    "Master... This, this... "Why did I run over to your place?" White Lady stuttered.


    "Why did you come here?" It was dropped by the man in black who just scurried out of your courtyard. " When Xi Hong Sheng thought of how his own woman had been tainted by others, giving him a green hat made him want to slice White Lady into a thousand pieces.


    White Lady was confused. Black clothed man? Could it be Ming Xuan''s trick? White Lady definitely could not admit it. If she admitted it, she could only die, so as long as she did not say that she had lost this thing, she would have a chance of survival.


    "Master, it''s not wrong that this undergarment belongs to me, but I can''t find this one anymore. If it doesn''t work, Master can just ask the servant girl." Maybe this man in black was just a freak in this aspect! This humble one''s heart towards Master has never changed, as usual. Why doesn''t this Master believe me? " White Lady cried out in grievance. Who knew that what she said was true, but he had said the last few words, so of course he wouldn''t believe White Lady.


    "Who knows if what you said is true or false!" Xi Hong Sheng would definitely not believe it.


    She did not want to alarm the old Madame. When she came, the White Lady was kneeling on the ground in a sorry state, Xi Hong Sheng sat at the side huffing and puffing, the First Lady went to pacify Xi Hong Sheng''s emotions first.


    She was curious, it had been a long time since Xi Hong Sheng came to White Lady, why did she suddenly remember? First Lady knew what happened from Xi Hong Sheng''s servants, and his face immediately turned ugly.


    The only value she had was that she had to find someone to carry the burden on her when the White Lady died. She had already found this person who was a scapegoat, but she did not have a safe plan for him. Now that White Lady had no choice but to die, I, Ming Xuan, came back today and said, ''White Lady knows how to serve mans.''


    She could not let White Lady reveal Ming Xuan to the public. At that time, she would also be implicated by Xi Hong Sheng and would not be able to raise her head. Naturally, she had to protect Ming Xuan.


    "Master, don''t be angry. We will feel sorry for getting angry again, especially Old Madame who is afraid of a headache and is about to get sick." First Lady hurriedly comforted Xi Hong Sheng, thinking that he, Ming Xuan, was still a bit happy. Xi Hong Sheng no longer had any feelings for her, and after more than ten years, husband and wife entered the door together with a woman, their feelings faded away.


    "Investigate, you must find that adulterer for me!" Fire appeared in Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes. If he knew that Ming Xuan was the one who did it, he wouldn''t even think about Ming Xuan''s identity killing her. This humiliation allows a man to do anything. First Lady trembled because of Xi Hong Sheng''s gaze.

 C61

    "I want to see how you''re going to explain it to me today." When Xi Hong Sheng sat down, her ashen face scared the White Lady, no one in the room dared to talk to him, even the Wang Ma was cowering in fear, if not for their servants, she did not want to anger the anymore, he might even die of anger.


    "Master, don''t be angry. Let me handle this matter." First Lady and Xi Hong Sheng sat down together and patted his fist, it was still the same loving couple that made people jealous.


    Xi Hong Sheng knew that she was a man, so she should ask First Lady about the matters of the backyard. She did not say anything more and just stared at White Lady with a pair of murderous eyes, as if she was already a dead woman. White Lady felt that his entire body was extremely cold, but looking at the love between First Lady and Xi Hong Sheng, he felt his body burning with anger, cold and hot.


    "How do you explain this apron?" The First Lady now had two ways to go, to get rid of the White Lady, so that Ming Xuan would be safe, and that was one of them. Or else, this matter could be put off for now and the White Lady could be killed when no one was around.


    "First Lady, I do not know about this matter. I looked for the undergarment maid and said that I did not manage to find his ¡­" Master, you have to think of me, ah, I have no secret relationship with anyone, even if I had a hundred guts, I would not dare do such a thing, Master, I have always been loyal and faithful to you, ah, until the end of my life, when a person from Master dies, he will still be the ghost of Master ¡­ " White Lady cried his head off and felt wronged. Her face was covered in tears, and his hair was disheveled as he knelt on the ground, she was in a sorry state. There was no beauty in her at all.


    Xi Hong Sheng guessed that it was probably a blind man who would look at her. Yet he forgot that the White Lady was his own concubinage, wasn''t he her man, wasn''t he the one who had his eyes on her?


    "This is the first time I''ve heard of a woman losing her apron." Xi Hong Sheng coldly snorted, sounding as though she did not quite believe this explanation.


    A while ago, the Madame of the Tai Yuan family caught a thief who stole a woman''s personal belongings in his own courtyard. Luckily, the Master of the Tai Yuan was also in his house at that time, otherwise, he would have been unjustifiable. " Telling Xi Hong Sheng this kind of thing was not something that had never happened before, and it also made Xi Hong Sheng understand that if Master Tai Yuan wasn''t present, then her Madame would have met with the same fate as the White Lady in front of him.


    "Father, what''s going on?" Xi Jiu Er rushed over with ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui in her robes. Her face was slightly sweating as she asked, "I heard that Father encountered a thief, so I was very worried."


    It was true that Xi Hong Sheng was moved, he did not even care about this matter for a while, but when this girl opened her mouth, she just asked if he was alright, sigh. He shook his head. "Go back. Father is fine."


    Xi Jiu Er was still an unmarried girl so he naturally couldn''t let her hear about it. Besides, as her father, she had called her daughter ''my daughter''. Now that she knew that someone had put on a green hat, what face did he have?


    How could Xi Jiu Er return here to watch the show? Behind him was Yan Er, who was as cold as water, and her eyes were already red. When she entered the door and saw that Xi Hong Sheng was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief, "It''s a good thing that Master is fine, as long as I''m fine, it''s fine."


    That look was truly deep and cozy, causing Xi Hong Sheng to think that his many years of love for the Third Wife had not been in vain. When he looked at the latter, Yan Er saw that there was not much of an expression on his face, and was not only disappointed. But it had also aroused his fighting spirit, he did not believe that he would not be able to take down Yan Er after travelling for a long time! Humph!


    Even a fool of the First Lady knew that this matter wasn''t as simple as it seemed. Her mind quickly worked, planning to take away all these people who were in her way.


    "Jiu Er, if your father is fine, then go back first!" First Lady gently said to Xi Jiu Er. No matter how one looked at it, the concern on her slightly pale face was fake. Xi Jiu Er guessed that she probably came in a hurry and didn''t have the time to clean up. First Lady always maintained a dignified and generous look, and her makeup was also exquisite!


    Sending Xi Jiu Er off was simple, how could this lady''s daughter, who had yet to leave the pavilion, meddle in this sort of matter? On the other hand, Third Wife and that Yan Er ¡­ They could only use a child as an excuse. Unexpectedly, before she could even open her mouth, she grabbed Yan Er''s hand and said, "I am afraid. I will only be at ease if I stay here and watch Master."


    Women, it was all because of the ruthlessness of men that women learned to act. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why Xi Hong Sheng had always pampered her! She glanced at Yan Er, and her eyes told him to stay. How many times did Yan Er tell her to stay?


    Yan Er pursed her lips and said to Xi Jiu Er: "Ninth Miss, come with me in a while. I''ll sleep with you, I''m a bit scared." A pair of incomparably beautiful eyes turned towards Xi Hong Sheng, as if asking him what he meant.


    Yeah, maybe this thief is still in the mansion, but what if this Yan Er is robbed by someone when she is so beautiful? If someone else ¡­ The moment Xi Hong Sheng thought about this possibility, he could not accept it at all. "Jiu Er, just go back with Yan Er."


    First Lady was furious, why does this damn man feel like he was kicked in the head by a donkey when he met Yan Er? Wouldn''t he have it sent back? His chest was burning with anger, and he was barely able to squeeze out a smile: "Master, this isn''t good, Jiu Er is still a young lady that has yet to come out ¡­ ¡­" She wanted to say that she would despise you if the woman in your heart knew you were wearing a green hat.


    "Hmph, didn''t she say she didn''t do such a thing? I expect she wouldn''t dare to do it even if she had a hundred guts, would she! " Xi Hong Sheng asked word by word. He also guessed that White Lady would only have this many unless they wanted to die.


    "Yes, Master is wise." White Lady hurriedly said.


    The First Lady heaved a sigh of relief. He thought that this matter would end like this, but who would have thought that the servants outside would come to report that the thieves had been caught? Everyone''s face changed as they heaved a sigh of relief. But who was acting? Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth, tonight she would watch a good show.


    "Bring it!" Xi Hong Sheng said with a dark expression.


    The handsome man was pushed into the room. He was around 20 years old, and every movement of his eyes caused others to feel disgusted. His eyes were filled with lust. When she saw Yan Er, her eyes were even more serious.


    Yan Er went up and slapped the man. The man immediately oozed blood foam, and that man started to lick his tongue and laugh. He seemed to be enjoying it a lot.


    "What are you still standing there for? Are all of you dead?" Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes were blazing with fire, the group of dead people saw their beloved girl being teased by a lackey, seeking death.


    The lackey was immediately punched and kicked by the servants. In order to express their loyalty, they beat him even more forcefully, and only after listening to the lackey''s shouts and pleas did Xi Hong Sheng finally give up.


    "If you keep looking, I''ll dig out your eyes." Xi Hong Sheng threatened fiercely.


    The man whose face had been beaten black and blue shook his head fiercely. "This little one doesn''t dare, I don''t dare ¡­" It really was painful. The man felt as if his entire body was in pain, and his whole body became obedient.


    "Let me ask you, what''s with this belly?" Now that Xi Hong Sheng had personally interrogated them, the First Lady at the side saw that it was not because of his mischievous cousin, and felt relieved. Just a moment ago, she was still wondering if it was the method used by the Third Wife, but now, it seems that it was just to watch the show.


    "This... "This ¡­" Lecher stuttered but did not speak. His eyes flashed and Xi Hong Sheng''s heart sank: "Speak! "I won''t tell you until you say it."


    "Speak with a smile, speak with a smile! This... This was given to me by this Madame ¡­ " The man pointed at the White Lady and whispered.


    White Lady immediately screamed: "What nonsense are you talking about, fart!" The White Lady did not care about face anymore. He was about to lose his life, so how could he care about face? She trembled with anger, this was not an act, it was real anger. "You stole this! Master, I was wrongly accused ¡­ "


    Xi Hong Sheng did not care about the White Lady yelling as he stared at the lecher and asked every single word: "Do you mean what you say?"


    Lecher nodded his head: "Indeed, this little one does not dare to deceive Master!"


    "Bitch! Bitch!" Xi Hong Sheng stood up and suddenly kicked White Lady. "You actually dared to steal a man behind me, watch me beat you to death."


    "Master, I did not steal anyone, I did not ¡­" Even if he was trying to steal someone, it wouldn''t be with him. Xi Hong Sheng''s foot on her body hurt to death, she curled up and shouted loudly: "Master, don''t listen to his nonsense, he must have been ordered by someone to slander me ¡­ The Master must have a clear understanding. "


    Xi Hong Sheng had been living a life of luxury for many years now, and after fiercely kicking him a few times, he felt weak. Looking at White Lady made him feel extremely disgusted, so he said: "Men, drown this slut to death."


    "Don''t! Master is innocent, he has nothing to do with me." White Lady was extremely scared, she rolled and crawled, wanting to hug Xi Hong Sheng''s thighs, but Xi Hong Sheng kicked her away, "Scram!"


    White Lady slumped to the ground, his eyes lifeless, as if he was about to die. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind, she immediately looked at First Lady and gently spat out two words. "Ming Xuan" If First Lady did not save her, then she would reveal Ming Xuan, saying that Ming Xuan had forced her to do so and drag First Lady into the water. Right now, other than the First Lady, she couldn''t think of anyone else who could save her.

 C62

    The two words'' Ming Xuan ''made First Lady''s face change slightly. First Lady was looking for him to save his life. If he did not save her, he might just bring Ming Xuan out right now. If White Lady insisted that Ming Xuan forced her, he would definitely believe that he was the one who would die, and she would also lose the trust Master had in him.


    "Master, I think there must be some kind of misunderstanding in this matter. This man''s words are not to be trusted at all, please do not misunderstand. What this concubine of White Lady knows is that she has a bad temper and definitely does not have the guts to have an affair with a man on his own." First Lady''s expression changed as he shouted at the man. "Speak, who was the one who instigated you? You actually gave up your life to wrongly accuse me."


    The man shook his head fiercely. "No, I didn''t wrongly accuse someone, I just wanted Master to see how I could be so easily humiliated! Master... I was wrong, I won''t dare to do it again. It was her, she seduced me. A few days ago, I met her at the teahouse. She said that no one cared about her at home. So we were supposed to meet tonight... "This little one didn''t lie. There''s a mole on the inside of her thigh ¡­"


    With such a private question exposed, Xi Hong Sheng already believed that the two of them had something to say. At that time, he shouted angrily: "Men, lock this bastard up, this bitch will drown her to death."


    Only Xi Hong Sheng who was so angry that his head went blank could not see it. Even if First Lady was blind, he could tell that this man was being ordered around. He clearly had the chance to admit that he was a retainer, and that if he found out, he would at most report it to an official. However, he insisted on getting involved with White Lady ¡­ She believed that White Lady did not have this kind of guts. As for daring to get involved with her cousin, it was definitely because her cousin had said something beautiful that moved her, or was simply a promise!


    Then, who exactly was the one who found this man? She shifted her gaze towards Third Wife as she roughly understood his background. Third Wife had brought Yan Er back with her, what kind of treasure was Master? She was probably doing this to take revenge for Liu Er, since she couldn''t move right now, she could only move White Lady ¡­ Then there was his own younger cousin. Third Wife would definitely know about the two of them.


    "Master, please spare my life, I beg you, I beg you ¡­" Lecher men and girls shouted loudly. They were so embarrassed that Xi Hong Sheng''s words were blocked by their mouths, and he tried his best to not wipe away his sweat.


    Fortunately, if he was just a little bit too late, the entire Xi Mansion would know that they had been put on a green hat.


    "Someone, drag that woman into the house and drown her. I don''t want to see her again." Xi Hong Sheng hurriedly ordered her servants to drown White Lady again. He didn''t want to see this woman again for the rest of her life, and even First Lady began to feel disgusted.


    When First Lady saw Xi Hong Sheng''s disgusted eyes, her heart skipped a beat. She knew that Xi Hong Sheng hated her too, and hated that White Lady scolded him inwardly that he was tough and tenacious.


    White Lady couldn''t say a word even though her mouth was sealed. She could only whimper as she stared into White Lady''s eyes. The begging had turned into venom, and she understood that First Lady wouldn''t save her.


    No, she couldn''t let First Lady live so easily, on what basis, on what basis. He had become a pawn of the First Lady, and he had fallen step by step to where he was today.


    It was unknown where the angry White Lady got his strength from, but he pushed aside the old granny beside him and screamed loudly, "Master, that''s right, I stole people, but ¡­"


    Everyone was stunned when they heard White Lady''s voice. The scene was completely silent, even if the needle dropped, they could still hear it. First Lady hurriedly said: "Men, quickly stop this shameless bitch from talking." She gave a look to the Wang Ma beside her, who immediately went over and suppressed the White Lady without even saying a word to the old granny. There were a total of six or seven of them, so how could the White Lady escape?


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" "Sob, sob ¡­" White Lady laid on the ground and squirmed like a bug, staring at First Lady with his pair of venomous eyes. First Lady heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, couldn''t help but feel glad that this slut didn''t say anything.


    "I''m so angry, I''m so angry ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng had never seen his woman before. She had confidently and confidently admitted to stealing from him? If this wasn''t slapping him in the face, what else could it be? What drowning, it was too easy for her!


    "Drag him out of the way and lock him up first. Wait for me to deal with him." Xi Hong Sheng had already made up his mind that he would not let the White Lady have it easy, but after a while, he did not know how to deal with her.


    "Yes." The First Lady gave the Wang Ma a look, and the Wang Ma knew what he had to do. Together with the old grandma and herself, they escorted the White Lady to a remote courtyard. The First Lady wanted to kill the White Lady, so how could he let her live past tonight?


    "Wait a moment ¡­" Yan Er looked at Xi Hong Sheng and said softly, "She seemed to not have finished speaking just now. Did Master hear her out?"


    First Lady''s face immediately turned red, she really could not maintain her dignified look. Right now, she was extremely sure that this matter had nothing to do with Third Wife and Yan Er, the two little bitches. In Yan Er''s eyes, this Yan Er didn''t even care about him, she didn''t even believe in him at all, yet Xi Hong Sheng just allowed him to do whatever she wanted ¡­


    "Oh?" Xi Hong Sheng''s chest was moving up and down, Xi Jiu Er guessed that if they were not there, Xi Hong Sheng would have vomited blood on the spot. She gave Yan Er a hint, Yan Er was smart enough to know what to do.


    Sometimes she has already fallen into the abyss. When you pull her, she will be grateful to you. The reason they were here tonight was to admire First Lady and White Lady''s abilities.


    Xi Hong Sheng was very agitated at this time, and the fire was not going to go out yet. When Yan Er bumped into her, Xi Hong Sheng could not help but want to get angry at her, but when he saw her beautiful face under the candlelight, he could not help but feel his heart beating faster.


    "Alright, let her finish her words. Today, I want to see what she can say!" Xi Hong Sheng was so angry that his body was starting to get tired. He leaned against the chair and had a headache, staring at White Lady and then at First Lady, this woman was introduced to him by his own wife. He never thought that she would be such a shameless bitch, First Lady was probably not someone good either.


    All these years, Xi Hong Sheng had always trusted his wife, and now that the White Lady had learnt from his mistakes, no matter how he looked at it, the First Lady seemed to have done something shady with the White Lady! Just thinking about it made him think about the three children that First Lady had given him ¡­ Were they not his?


    Looking at Xi Hong Sheng''s suspicious eyes, First Lady felt chills throughout his entire body, even his heart was cold. After more than ten years of being husband and wife, he still suspected her. First Lady was both angry and afraid, how could she not know Xi Hong Sheng''s suspicious character? Sometimes, when she had an idea in her heart, she would plant a seed at the bottom of Xi Hong Sheng''s heart. She believed that there would be a day when the seed would sprout and blossom.


    "Wu, Master, I am indeed apologizing to Master, but I was also forced to be threatened by someone, because First Lady''s cousin, Young Master, threatened me the day he saw me, causing me to have no choice but to listen to him. Otherwise, Young Master would have bitten back, saying that I stole my person. After that, Young Master Ming Xuan came out and said that if I didn''t listen to his words, I would kill him. " White Lady was afraid that the First Lady would ask someone to gag her, so she spoke quickly.


    Hehe, White Lady is also an intelligent person, he knows that he will not be able to escape death this time, so he decided to pull Ming Xuan down with him. Hearing that, it was obvious that the mastermind behind this matter was First Lady, even if it was her own cousin!


    "I never thought that it would be First Lady''s cousin ¡­" Yan Er said softly, "I have heard of First Lady''s cousin. I have heard that the flowers and leaves that drift about do not touch one''s body and that he often takes possession of another person''s wife. This time, he has come to my house because of this reason."


    Yan Er was a completely different existence, so her personality was also different. As the children of the Third Wife grew older and older, her personality became more and more perverted and sharp, because she knew that once the children of the Third Wife grew older, she would have to disappear from the Xi Mansion forever, so she was not afraid of Xi Hong Sheng at all. Only Yan Er would retort and express her thoughts. This was something that Xi Hong Sheng appreciated.


    "Ming Xuan... Ming Xuan... Great, I am his brother-in-law now, but he actually seduced his own brother-in-law''s concubinage, with the tacit consent of his big sister! " Xi Hong Sheng felt that he had been betrayed by someone. His concubine had betrayed him in an affair with a man.


    He looked at First Lady with an unfamiliar expression, turned his head and ordered: "Send Young Master Ming Xuan back to me for the entire night. As for ¡ª "He looked at White Lady," I don''t want to see this woman ever again.


    White Lady was overjoyed at this moment. She cracked her lips into a smile and said, "Master, you have to watch carefully. She is a wolf in human skin, with a heart of a snake and a heart of a snake. What fake pregnancy, the one who framed Third Wife was her! "


    First Lady''s expression did not change at all. She only said: "White Lady, I know you hate me, hate that I did not save you, and you started to instigate my relationship with Master in front of Master. We have been husband and wife for more than ten years, I naturally know what kind of person I am. "It''s a pity ¡ª you chose the wrong person."

 C63

    Seeing how First Lady spoke so casually, she did not mind at all? No, she cared so much that she wanted to loudly explain to Xi Hong Sheng that the child was his. It was definitely not what he thought. This slut was truly poisonous to make such a scene before her death! She gave Wang Ma a look. Wang Ma hated White Lady to the extreme too, why is this little bitch''s mouth so venomous, why is her intentions so sinister?


    White Lady was brought down, her life and death did not need to know the result, a farce ended just like that. Before leaving, Xi Hong Sheng did not even look at First Lady, which caused his face to immediately turn white, and his body started to crumble.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t leak a single word as she glanced at First Lady, pursed her lips into a smile, and then took her people and left. First Lady was only afraid that Xi Hong Sheng and him might have some grudge, and wondered if Xi Hong Sheng did not know of First Lady''s usual scheming and scheming battles. He definitely knew that the old Madame was bringing him here step by step. As long as First Lady could not do it, Xi Hong Sheng would pass it with one eye closed.


    This time, he planted a seed for Xi Hong Sheng, believing that this seed would one day sprout ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was in a good mood as he went back to the courtyard to rest. Along the way, he chatted and laughed with ex-sister-in-law, but Liu Shui who did not speak much suddenly said: "Today, Servant saw a few red spots on the back of Xi Er''s neck."


    Red dots? Xi Jiu Er saw the surprise on Liu Shui''s face and asked doubtfully: "What''s wrong?"


    Liu Shui pursed his lips and said uncertainly: "I don''t know if this is true for Servant, I guess that Xi Er got smallpox ¡­"


    What? smallpox? Xi Jiu Er''s face suddenly turned white, how could she have forgotten that in her previous life, it was only because of the smallpox that had spread throughout the city. In the end, it resulted in the death of 10,000 people in the capital due to smallpox, and the number of people burned reached 50,000! Only after the imperial court had been isolated did the situation gradually improve. The entire time was about a year or so. This became the heaviest stroke in history!


    Xi Jiu Er''s face did not look good, based on her pinching of her fingers, she was afraid that the smallpox was already spreading! In this life, her enemies were only people from the Xi Family, so naturally, they were also the people from the Xi Family. Those people outside had nothing to do with her. But now, she had been reincarnated. She was grateful to Buddha for giving her another chance, allowing her to coincidentally encounter space upon being reincarnated. With this space, she would be completely immune to poisons.


    Perhaps it was time to repay her debt, but she could also take this opportunity to help the world ¡­ ex-sister-in-law supported Xi Jiu Er and looked at her pale face and said: "Miss is not afraid, we have a medicine shop, and also have the life saving water of Miss. We will definitely not get smallpox."


    Xi Jiu Er thought carefully and nodded: "Let''s go, we will go find Yan Er."


    "Maybe the Master is here." ex-sister-in-law said.


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head: "No." Xi Hong Sheng was already so embarrassed, how could he have the face to go see Yan Er? I''m afraid that they will settle their scores with her in First Lady''s room.


    Yan Er had already rested for a while, upon seeing Xi Jiu Er rushing over, she asked: Where is your servant, Xi Er?


    "Go, Xi Er will call me over." Yan Er instructed a servant girl beside him. The servant girl was extremely scared of Xi Jiu Er, as though the sky was falling down, and Yan Er felt the same way.


    "Madame!" She felt dizzy and dizzy. She thought she had not slept well, so she forced herself to focus: "Servant greets Ninth Miss, Madame greets you."


    "Hehe, it seems like you haven''t woken up yet. Drink some water first!" Xi Jiu Er handed over his own tea cup to Xi Er. Xi Er hurriedly received it with fear and confusion: "Servant thanks Ninth Miss."


    Xi Er gulped down the tea down, then carefully placed it on the table. Not only was she refreshed from drinking the tea, in the blink of an eye, she no longer felt pain in her head, and her body was no longer burning hot.


    "Is there anything that Ninth Miss needs from Servant?" Xi Er asked anxiously. Coming to find him in the middle of the night was definitely not a good thing. When Xi Er thought about what happened to the White Lady, she became so scared that her face turned white.


    "Hehe, it''s fine. I came to find your Madame and saw that your performance was not bad tonight so I gave you 10 taels of silver. I''m afraid I forgot to wake you up so late." Attacking Jiu Er with one look, Jiu Er could tell that Xi Er was not bad, and the excuse she had already come up with was to give him a reward.


    ex-sister-in-law was stunned. After Xi Jiu Er finished speaking, she immediately took out ten silver and gave it to Xi Er: "Take it.


    It was only until now did she finally regain her senses, and look at Xi Jiu Er with a look of disbelief. Ninth Miss''s personality was truly unfathomable, her hands were so generous. After saying this ¡­


    "Hurry up and thank Ninth Miss, what are you doing standing there stupidly?" Yan Er smiled, it was definitely not to specially reward the servant! She just noticed that Xi Jiu Er had taken out that small porcelain bottle again. She really wanted to ask how much water could be inside that finger sized small porcelain bottle?


    "Thank you, Miss." Xi Er immediately responded with a salute.


    "Go down." Yan Er instructed.


    Xi Er happily took the 10 taels of silver and went back to her room. Yan Er waved the servant to sit down: "Ninth Miss, what happened?"


    "Just now, Liu Shui said that he noticed a red dot on the back of Xi Er''s neck at the courtyard of Third Wife. I thought it was smallpox, so I came over to take a look. "So ¡­" When Xi Jiu Er told them the reason, she indeed saw Yan Er''s expression change slightly. Nineteen percent of the people who got injured would die.


    Once again, Yan Er was shocked, all because of the porcelain bottle in Xi Jiu Er''s hand ¡­ If it really was smallpox, then this thing was a panacea for all diseases. Yan Er suppressed the shock in her heart and said, "Smallpox ¡­"


    "Drink the water inside with Third Wife. Let the Mother Fang and Le''er drink as well." Xi Jiu Er handed the disk over to Yan Er and instructed him, "You can go now. I''m afraid that there are people with smallpox in her courtyard.


    Hearing that Xi Jiu Er did not talk about anyone else, did that mean that she would not even bother about the life and death of others? Receiving the small porcelain bottle, Yan Er stood up and said: "Then I''ll be going."


    "Go." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    On the way back, ex-sister-in-law was a little worried. "Miss, how about you just leave the thing to Yan Er like this, you''re not afraid of her ¡­" Yan Er was an intelligent woman, if she had any evil thoughts, it would be hard for people to guard against her.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "So what if she truly covets the things inside?" That small porcelain bottle was formed from Qiu Qiu''s spirit energy. At that time, it would be hard for Yan Er to find even small porcelain bottles.


    "ex-sister-in-law, pack your things and we will go to the Duke''s Palace tomorrow morning." Firstly, she hadn''t gone to deliver water, and secondly, she hadn''t seen her grandfather for a long time.


    In this room, Yan Er played with the porcelain bottle in her hand. When she arrived at the courtyard of the Third Wife, he asked someone to open the door, and that person said that it was already too late. Yan Er felt helpless, she kicked the door open.


    "You, you ¡­" The gatekeeper looked at Yan Er with a stammer. Yan Er''s cold eyes swept over him once, and the servant trembled as she got up to close the door. The maidservants behind him felt that their master was rather intrepid. They carefully followed behind him with small steps, afraid that they would be in trouble if they were to kick him one day.


    Third Wife had already fallen asleep and happened to be on duty. When Mother Fang heard the commotion outside, she immediately walked out, and almost bumped into Yan Er. She quickly took a step back and was about to ask.


    "Third Wife went to sleep? I have urgent business with her. " Yan Er spoke as she walked into the bedroom. She happened to see the Third Wife propping himself up, and when she saw Yan Er approaching in full fury, she asked: "What''s wrong?"


    Yan Er sat down and let her servant leave: "Go down, I have something to tell Third Wife."


    "Yes."


    After they left, Yan Er placed the small porcelain bottle on the table and skipped the topic, "It was Ninth Miss who asked me to come. She suspects that my servant Xi Er has smallpox and that there might be people in the house who have smallpox. "Let''s drink this. Mother Fang and Le Er also want to drink this. I have already drunk it before ¡­" She thought it was some kind of unique smell, but it was just a spring.


    What, smallpox? Third Wife and Mother Fang''s expressions changed as they handed the small porcelain bottle over to Third Wife without a word. "Madame, quickly drink it!"


    Third Wife was also afraid that if the situation really turned out like that, then what should she do? She immediately picked it up and drank.


    Mother Fang ordered Yue''er to come drink after drinking.


    The sky was already starting to turn white, so Third Wife decided to just leave Yan Er in her room to sleep.


    The next morning, Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Xiang, the ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui and left hurriedly. She did not greet anyone, and was afraid that they would be punished when they returned.


    When Xi Jiu Er left the Xi Mansion, something happened. Two servants died one night in Xi Family, and they began to confirm that they were infected with smallpox!


    smallpox? Even the First Lady was scared. She had been married to the Xi Family for so many years, yet she had not encountered any smallpox, so she immediately went to see the Old Madame. She hadn''t even reported anything to the old Madame about the White Lady when the small talk came about. Compared to the small talk the small talk about in the White Lady, it was insignificant.


    In the end, the old Madame was very experienced and knowledgeable. She immediately let those who went abroad live together, those who didn''t get smallpox together. Other than Xi Wan Feng and the son of Third Wife who had smallpox, Xi Wan Rong and the others had never had smallpox. And amongst the adults, the old Madame had come out, the Third Wife had come out, Yan Er had come out, and the rest of the Xi Hong Sheng and First Lady had never come out. Amongst the servants, other than Mother Fang and mother of joy, there were also a few maidservants and attendants who had come out before.

    When the old Madame asked about Xi Jiu Er, the servant girl in the courtyard said that Xi Jiu Er had rushed to the Duke''s Palace early in the morning to look for the Wei Guogong. Although the old Madame didn''t say anything, she was still unhappy. On the other hand, the First Lady was very happy, she couldn''t wait for Xi Jiu Er to have smallpox too, and then infect the Wei Guogong. When the Wei Guogong dies, Xi Jiu Er would just let her beat him up.


    "Maybe she has a good time. She knows the rules." The First Lady immediately spoke up for Xi Jiu Er. Seeing that the old Madame seemed to understand her thoughts, she immediately raised her head.


    At this time, the people sent by the old Madame had returned, bringing very bad news to the old Madame and First Lady. Xi Wan Rong had smallpox, the three Young Master s Xi Mao had smallpox, and the five Miss s Xi Wu Er also had smallpox. They were already isolated according to the orders given by the old Madame.


    When First Lady heard that Xi Wan Feng and Xi Mao could also almost not hold back anymore, she supported Wang Ma on the verge of collapse. She hurriedly looked at Old Madame, who also felt that the situation was getting serious, as for Xi Wu Er''s life and death, she did not care, she only cared about her own eldest son and Xi Wan Rong''s face.


    "Go, serve Miss Rong and Young Master Mao who have already suffered from smallpox. If there is anything wrong, let them come with their lives." The old Madame shouted.


    "Yes." The servant immediately made the arrangements.


    This news was simply terrible news to the First Lady. She could not imagine, if Rong Er was disgraced and her son could not endure, then what would be the meaning of her life?


    "mother!" First Lady kneeled in front of the old Madame. The old Madame didn''t understand what she was doing, she was extremely busy, what kind of show was this?


    "mother, my daughter-in-law is begging mother to personally take care of Rong Er and Mao''er, they are my daughter-in-law''s children, if anything happens to them, my daughter-in-law will not be able to continue living." The words of the First Lady was the clearest, they were most afraid of someone plotting against her from behind her back.


    Especially for Third Wife. Third Wife already had smallpox, so she was not afraid, and Yan Er who was at the same place as her was also fine. This was a threat to her in the first place. If something were to happen to her child at this time, what would happen to her? Third Wife only had one son and another child in his stomach, which made her feel extremely safe.


    The old Madame thought for a while, then said: "I got it, I will personally take care of Rong Er and Mao''er, get up."


    "Old Madame ¡ª" mother of joy ran in frantically. First Lady thought that something was wrong with his child, so he asked: "Did something happen to them?"


    mother of joy hurriedly explained: "That''s not it, First Lady doesn''t need to worry. Servant isn''t talking about this, Servant is talking about something else."


    "That''s good, that''s good." First Lady heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn''t a child who was fine, then that was good enough. Suddenly, she remembered that she had lost her identity just now and as Xi Hong Sheng''s wife, she should also have asked Xi Hong Sheng if he was safe and sound.


    "Old Madame, this old servant heard that many people outside have smallpox ¡­ "It seems like every family in the capital has people with smallpox." Fear flashed across mother of joy''s face. There were people with smallpox in the entire capital, not just them.


    Old Madame was still able to hold it in. She had obviously smelled something different, but who was it? She said: "I got it, let''s take care of Xi Mansion now."


    Compared to the Xi Mansion, the Wei Guogong was much better. Everyone in Wei Guogong''s residence were all elderly. The little officers that had fought with him before had very good bodies and no smallpox appeared. A few of the weaker servants already had smallpox.


    "Grandfather!" When Xi Jiu Er came to the Wei Guogong, she had already dealt with the matters of the residence. When she saw her own granddaughter who had come early in the morning, she immediately shouted, "Don''t come, go back quickly."


    "Grandfather, you also have smallpox?" Xi Jiu Er asked?


    Eh? Wei Guogong was startled, seeing that her granddaughter did not have any bad reactions, she finally relaxed. She held her hands, feeling moved and yet blaming her: "What are you doing here?" He wouldn''t be so muddle-headed as to think that his granddaughter had deliberately come to see him.


    "Grandfather, I was worried about you, so I came to take a look." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "I even brought this with me." She then placed the porcelain bottle on the table.


    "Don''t worry, they''re just a few underlings." The Wei Guogong did not care at all and said: "Old Zhang came back today and said that many people had smallpox, and many had already died ¡­"


    "Your granddaughter has already heard about this on her way here. Grandfather, what do you think?" Xi Jiu Er had also heard many things along the way, and her intuition told him that this matter was definitely not simple.


    "You little girl, why are you worrying about this?" The Wei Guogong chuckled, worry hidden in her eyes. Holding Xi Jiu Er''s hand, she said, "You definitely didn''t eat in the morning, right?


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er happily agreed and sat down. The servant immediately added a pair of tableware for her, and looking at the absent-minded Wei Guogong Xi Jiu Er, he suggested a way of thinking: "Grandfather, you know I have a medicine store right?"


    "Right." The corner of Wei Guogong''s mouth twitched as she laughed, "Grandfather already heard about it. Everyone knows about the reputation of the Life Training Hall."


    "Hur hur, I plan to use my life support hall to do something that will benefit the people." Xi Jiu Er took a bite of the food, as she felt that today''s food was extremely fragrant.


    Wei Guogong was finally attracted to Xi Jiu Er''s topic: "Oh? "For the welfare of the people?"


    "Yes, granddaughter plans on going to the outside world to ask for a prescription to treat smallpox and then selling it at a low price to the patient with smallpox. Do you think this method is good?" Xi Jiu Er began to heartily eat. Hmm, when she got back, he would ask Liu Xiang to cook it for him.


    "Jiu Er, this..." The other party was his own granddaughter, a granddaughter who had no one to rely on. Even though he was an upright soldier, he was also a selfish person, and if his own daughter was selfish in the past ¡­ How could his daughter''s fate be so pitiful, to die so early? Therefore, he had to change the topic, "The prescription for smallpox? You really can find the formula for smallpox? "


    "Hehe, Grandfather, if someone knew the formula for the smallpox, that person would have definitely used this opportunity to make a meteoric rise to prominence and gone to the Imperial Hospital." Xi Jiu Er sighed, "The smallpox medicine is fake, this is the real deal." Pointing to a small porcelain bottle at the side, she poured the spring water into the medicine ingredients.


    "Ah?" This, this... How much water do you need? Is that enough? " Wei Guogong stared at the cute little porcelain bottle in disbelief, thinking that with so many people taking the medicine, just a few drops would definitely not be enough.


    "Hehe, even if there''s not enough granddaughters, there''s still more." Xi Jiu Er did not care, she had only told this secret to the Wei Guogong, and those of them who had drank this water before would only be guessing, then she would just find an excuse, and as for any excuse, she had already thought it through.


    "Grandfather, weren''t you supposed to be a granddaughter who couldn''t get rich? In fact, her granddaughter had her own reasons for doing so. If she were to buy the medicine for the common folk without paying a single cent, how would the zodiac view her now? "Your granddaughter is a businessman, a businessman''s most valued profit. If a businessman doesn''t even want to make money, what do you think he wants?" Xi Jiu Er gave Wei Guogong a hint. Wei Guogong was the person who understood one of zodiac the most, so the character of the person was naturally very clear.


    Wei Guogong''s expression slightly changed. Today, zodiac was a suspicious person, if Xi Jiu Er was willing to buy medicine without taking a single cent, in her opinion, it would benefit him, but there were still people who were not certain about it. She no longer cared about politics and lived a carefree life for many years. In the eyes of outsiders, his days were easy, but how many people knew that he was crying? The zodiac was afraid that this group of elders would one day start using their seniority to show off their skills again.


    Xi Jiu Er was her granddaughter, and her happiness had become another kind of ''scheme'' in the eyes of the zodiac. It was undoubtedly a disaster for the Wei family and the Xi Family. The smallpox this time was very unusual, as if it was intentional.


    The capital, what kind of place was that? It was the place closest to the imperial power. Wasn''t it an indirect threat this time? Wei Guogong analyzed the stakes involved and agreed with Xi Jiu Er''s approach.


    If the price was too high, not only would the Xi Family be condemned by the people, His Majesty would also be punished. At that time, it would be hard for him to imagine the pressure on this frail girl.


    "Jiu Er... "You''re sensible now ¡­" Wei Guogong said with relief.


    "Hur hur, come. Grandfather will eat." Xi Jiu Er felt a little guilty, what did she mean by being sensible? She was actually the same as her grandfather had said, there was no difference between her and him, she needed the silver taels, and similarly, she needed her own unshakeable power in the Xi Family. Besides waiting for the Emperor''s blessing, she couldn''t think of any faster or more direct method.


    "Haha ¡­" Wei Guogong ate happily. After hearing Xi Jiu Er say that she would go to the Old Doctor to beg for ''prescriptions'' after she finished eating, he could not take it anymore. "I will send a few people with some skills to follow you.


    "Alright, then Jiu Er will thank Grandfather." Since it was a show, and zodiac was watching it while the citizens were watching it, she could not lie about it.


    She remembered that in her previous life, there was a doctor living in seclusion in the mountains. She heard that he was very powerful, capable of treating ''the living and the dead'', and his medical skills had reached the pinnacle of perfection.


    "Hehe, our family still doesn''t need to thank you. If you need anything, just say it to grandpa." If it wasn''t for the fact that he couldn''t leave the capital, he would have definitely gone with his granddaughter.

    The person Xi Jiu Er was looking for was precisely the ingenious'' Dr. Sun Kong Ming ''. Based on the memories of her past life, Doctor Sun Kong Ming had died in a remote village on the southern shore of the Huai River during this half a year. Perhaps, she would be able to find some clues from there.


    Xi Jiu Er never thought that she would definitely find the person she was looking for and let the carriage driver follow them to the southern shore of the Huai River. As for what kind of village, she had already forgotten about it.


    In the past few years, the dam had been destroyed by a flood on the southern shore of the Huai River, and later another river had formed. Before the local officials of the river had even named it, the people had already started calling it the Dead River, because on that day, more than ten thousand people had died in the flood, the officials responsible for the construction of the dam had been killed, and the remaining officials had been killed.


    The news about the smallpox in the capital began to spread, causing people to panic. Now, no one dared to go to the capital, and as long as they heard that it was someone from the capital, they would hide far away. Not even the local officials were able to stop them.


    "Xi Jiu Er!" Xi Jiu Er was drinking tea at the inn, when she suddenly heard a familiar voice. She was stunned, she turned to see that it was Mu Qiu Shui!


    "We are really fated to be together." Xi Jiu Er immediately turned her back on Mu Qiu Shui''s pretty face. Other than her, who also had a beautiful woman, this woman was so enchanting that she walked like a boneless snake. The two of them were made for each other.


    Women were indeed Miss Shui Xian, she had long heard from Mu Qiu Shui how beautiful Xi Jiu Er was, how understanding, how intelligent and so on. Now that she looked at it, she felt extreme disdain. Beautiful? Not one in ten of hers, okay? His attitude right now was still considerate? Wise beyond ordinary? How could he be so smart with such a silly face? Was it because her master was sick, or did she not understand women and only knew men?


    "Of course." Mu Qiu Shui chuckled, revealing her pure white and neat teeth, she leaned over and whispered: "Where are you going?"


    Xi Jiu Er rolled her eyes: "Who cares about you." She absolutely didn''t want to be contaminated with Mu Qiu Shui, as he was someone she could avoid from running too far away.


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed: "Are you here? Why don''t we go together? I''ll follow wherever you go and see where you can run to. " Just as he was about to say something, he saw Xi Jiu Er and resentfully said: It''s a little hot, hehe, it''s a little hot. Why is this tea so hard to drink? Is it for pigs?


    Xi Jiu Er quickly drank some tea and gave her some silver before leaving, but Mu Qiu Shui just smiled at her and still sat firmly on the spot. Seeing that he was at ease, Xi Jiu Er made the coachman drive away quickly.


    "He''s gone, aren''t you going to chase after him?" Shui Xian said softly.


    "Chase after what? There''s only this one path down this path. Why isn''t it the same?" "I''m not in a hurry ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui smiled faintly. As the prince of a capital, he did not care that such a huge matter as the idle Prince Xian was only his style of doing things. Of course, it was only in the eyes of an outsider.


    "Miss, Prince Xian''s carriage is following us again ¡­"


    "Try to get rid of them." Xi Jiu Er said in a muffled voice.


    Unfortunately, in the end, things went against her wishes. Now that there was only this one path, how could she shake her head? Their horses were much faster than their own horses, so it was obvious that they were one of a hundred horses. The woman''s melodious voice echoed from the carriage behind. Xi Jiu Er looked out of the window at the scenery, listening to the song and feeling different.


    It had to be said that the woman''s singing was very pleasant to the ears. Xi Jiu Er''s originally restless mood also became cheerful, and after walking for around an hour, she arrived at the teahouse. Xi Jiu Er was having fun playing with Qiu Qiu at personal space, so she did not feel the fatigue of the boat. Seeing that Liu Xiang, ex-sister-in-law and the others could not take it anymore, all of their waists and legs were in pain, they too wanted to come down and take a breath of fresh air.


    Xi Jiu Er was alone on the horse carriage, so when she heard Mu Qiu Shui''s voice, she pouted her lips and guessed what was he doing following her, was it fun?


    Suddenly, the curtain was opened, and a sweet scent wafted out. Xi Jiu Er was startled to see a tall and big figure crawl in, she immediately sat up and glared at the person: "What are you doing here?"


    "I''m sick of that carriage. Can''t I take your carriage?" Mu Qiu Shui looked at the carriage, although it did not look like much outside, but it was very luxurious inside, with ten people inside, no problem. He casually sat down and said as if it was a matter of course.


    "What kind of play is this? I say, my lord, something big has happened in the capital! Why are you running here with nothing to do? Are you so bored?" Xi Jiu Er said snappily: "Go, this is all our girl''s carriage, what are they going to do if you enter." She wanted to say that they still dared to come in when you came in!


    "It''s fine, they''ll let them have my carriage." Mu Qiu Shui laughed and asked the first question.


    "Then who will serve me?" Xi Jiu Er said angrily: "Prince, you go back now."


    "I''m not, I''m a prince, I''ll say whatever I want!" Mu Qiu Shui said proudly.


    Shui Xian, who was outside, really wanted to tear this little bitch called Xi Jiu Er''s mouth to pieces when she heard her. What kind of person is this Prince? Shui Xian''s face had already distorted due to anger. Liu Shui looked at her indifferently and said: "I advise you to act blindly without thinking."


    Shui Xian turned her head with a smile that was not a smile: "Yo, little girl, you''re threatening me?"


    "I''m not threatening you. I''m just speaking the truth." Liu Shui said indifferently, her somewhat innocent face was expressionless, but how could Shui Xian not feel the killing intent that was being emitted from her body? Yo, she''s an expert. Her kung fu is probably on par with her. She was previously deceived by that face.


    "Hmph." Shui Xian coldly snorted, and thought that Liu Shui''s words were fart. How could anyone stop her besides the prince? The carriage finally quietened down, as if Xi Jiu Er had compromised and no longer spoke. Shui Xian felt that it was meaningless, she pouted and returned to the horse carriage. Since the Prince had said so, he probably would not allow him to serve him. Once again, she thought to herself: What is so good about this Xi Jiu Er?


    Xi Jiu Er sat in the corner angrily, looking down on Mu Qiu Shui no matter how he looked at it, he just did not like the sight of him, with a cold snort. After hearing that everyone was on the horse carriage, Xi Jiu Er immediately wanted to go over and bite Mu Qiu Shui to death.


    "What are you looking at!" Xi Jiu Er watched as Mu Qiu Shui giggled and looked towards her, the fire had started to boil, glaring at Mu Qiu Shui, he did not know how she would react, the more Mu Qiu Shui felt that she was being so adorable, causing him to laugh out loud: "How do you know that I''m looking at you?"


    "He''s sick." Xi Jiu Er felt that there was something wrong with this Mu Qiu Shui. The taste of being told a story like a chicken and a duck was too unbearable to bear.


    "Yeah, I''m a lovesick." Mu Qiu Shui blinked her eyes at Xi Jiu Er, causing the latter to feel a chill down her spine and be completely unable to understand what the hell Mu Qiu Shui was saying. The carriage continued to move, and Xi Jiu Er walked into the personal space to play with Qiu Qiu.


    Mu Qiu Shui saw that she did not disturb him even after a while, so he closed his eyes and rested himself at the side. A quarter of an hour had passed, and her body was still sleeping, so he could not take it anymore: "Are you a pig that can sleep so much?"


    Xi Jiu Er opened his eyes, his eyes clear and devoid of any trace of sleepiness: "You''re the pig." Oh no, he and zodiac were born from the same family, isn''t zodiac a pig then? This time, she''s dead for sure, if Mu Qiu Shui catches him, he will definitely blame them. He then said, "Who heard me say that I was a pig? I didn''t say anything!"


    "Hmph, if you aren''t a pig, then what are you? You can come out after two hours even with your eyes closed. I even thought you were meditating." Mu Qiu Shui sneered.


    When Xi Jiu Er turned around, she started chanting the [Vajra Scripture], causing Mu Qiu to laugh. "You really started chanting?" Following that, she started to recite the [Vajra Scripture]. Mu Qiu Shui''s recitation speed was extremely fast, Xi Jiu Er was simply unable to catch up, and she could only depress herself.


    Not far away, a group of men with bows and crossbows were crawling on the mountaintop. A man said to the leading man, "Boss, we''re almost there."


    "Don''t be in such a hurry to wait for a moment. Women only drag their feet when they do things ¡­" The leader comforted the crowd, he had already scolded Xi Jiu Er countless times in his heart. Why wasn''t the bitch here yet?


    A quarter of an hour later, the two carriages arrived. The man asked, "Boss, who are these two carriages?"


    "Look at the red tassels hanging on the front of the carriage. The gold mine owner said that the blue curtains are hanging on the red tassels."


    "That''s right."


    "Yes."


    Everyone aimed at the carriage and pulled the crossbows ¡­ Xi Jiu Er flipped through the books in the carriage out of boredom. It would be better to go to the space to play with Qiu Qiu, but this guy was definitely saying that he was a pig! He had to think of a way to throw Mu Qiu Shui off, and do whatever he wanted as though he was being watched.


    Suddenly, Mu Qiu Shui carried her and the two of them and laid on the board. Xi Jiu Er opened his eyes wide and did not react as Qiu Qiu screamed out in his consciousness, "Master!"


    At the same time, an arrow passed through a wooden board and nailed itself onto the opposite side of the board.

 C66

    She had gradually forgotten about the death in her previous life. In this world, Xi Jiu Er had come into contact with her at such a close distance, that Mu Qiu Shui suddenly turned around and pressed her down, allowing him to see Xi Jiu Er''s terrified eyes. He looked at her with her big watery eyes and he could smell her orchid fragrance.


    "Don''t be afraid." Mu Qiu Shui changed from his usual mischievous smile and stared at Xi Jiu Er with incomparable seriousness: "Don''t worry, I will protect you."


    Xi Jiu Er had only had intimate contact with a man before, and that was also a few months ago. Now that there was a man lying on top of her, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but feel comfortable, that beautiful face that was even prettier than a woman, it made her uncomfortable. This time, it was all thanks to Mu Qiu Shui, maybe the arrow would have pierced through her body.


    ''s face was like ice. Without the smile of a popinjay, it did not have the charm to attract a woman''s soul. He placed Xi Jiu Er firmly under his body and took out a soft whip.


    ''s voice was as charming as ever. ex-sister-in-law and Liu Xiang''s panicked voices sounded out faintly, she could naturally hear with her superior hearing, she hated First Lady to the core, and hoped that ex-sister-in-law and Liu Xiang were safe and sound at this time, and Liu Shui did not get hurt.


    "Don''t worry, Shui Xian''s martial arts are very good." Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s worry and relief on her face, Mu Qiu Shui threw her arms around Xi Jiu Er''s waist and shook the soft whip on her body. A "pa" sound came out as the wooden board was split into two.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes widened in shock. Awesome!


    The men on board took out arrows and lit them with the arrows. With a ''shua'' sound, the carriage began to burn. The second carriage also began to burn with rockets.


    Liu Xiang was also a powerful being. With a tree branch in hand, she shook off the arrows, and protected ex-sister-in-law and Liu Xiang tightly in her arms. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was safe and sound, she finally revealed a relieved smile.


    Shui Xian gracefully swung her whip around and did not forget to scold her. What kind of man would not treat the fairer sex? When she saw that Mu Qiu Shui who was embracing Xi Jiu Er had turned black to the bottom of a pot, she did not scold the man and started to curse the smelly woman.


    Just by looking at how Mu Qiu Shui was acting and how his underling was acting, while speaking in a strange tone, she was pointing at him and scolding him like he was a locust tree. Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and did not bother with Shui Xian, as the most important thing was for her own people to be safe and sound, if she wanted to scold him, then she would scold him, and she would not lose a piece of flesh.


    "Seeing that they are likely planning to take your life behind the scenes, I''m afraid it will be difficult for us to do anything today if we are less prepared ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui reverted back to her silly smile, "Sigh, I guess my life is also going to be tough. I actually turned out like this after joining in the fun, I might even lose my life."


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips. Her original guilt and self-blame had completely disappeared with Mu Qiu Shui''s attitude. Couldn''t he speak properly? Did she have to say that?


    "Xi Jiu Er, if you don''t die this time, marry me." Mu Qiu Shui still had a face full of cynicism, but in his eyes, it was recognition. He felt too embarrassed, so he could only use this method to hide his embarrassment.


    Xi Jiu Er rolled her eyes as she looked at Shui Xian. Shui Xian was stunned as she ran away with Xi Jiu Er in her arms! That''s right, she had run away. Her master had asked her to take care of the people who were left behind, but he had run away! Shui Xian was enraged, the same kind of soft whip that Mu Qiu Shui had, was trembling to the point that it felt like there was wind blowing.


    "What are you doing!" Xi Jiu Er screamed.


    "Of course it''s to abandon the carriage to protect the commander. With my people and yours, it''s more than enough to protect them. The most important thing for you to think about is how to protect yourself. After all, they pampered you so much." Mu Qiu Shui said.


    "Where are we going?" Xi Jiu Er, who was in Mu Qiu Shui''s embrace, felt her face grow slightly hot after hearing his pleading. She looked at the path ahead of her.


    Mu Qiu Shui rolled his eyes. "Of course I''m going to find a place to hide. I usually see how you''re so stupid and ignorant when you''re so intelligent."


    "You!" Xi Jiu Er was so angry that she kept quiet.


    "I''m afraid there''s an ambush up ahead." Mu Qiu Shui hugged Xi Jiu Er as she ran, and gasped for breath: "Say, why do you look so thin and heavy, like a pig."


    Xi Jiu Er was furious, if this Mu Qiu Shui did not want to anger him to death, what could he do? If you don''t get killed by them, you will probably die from anger. Can''t you just have a good talk with me? "


    Mu Qiu Shui''s mischievous smile flashed across his eyes and he said: "Talk properly? I think you''re the one who didn''t even try to talk to me properly, you know? Every single time, you''re always looking down on me and looking down on me. I''m a prince, you know. "


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless, what''s wrong with the prince? It wasn''t like everyone had to agree that they had to like the prince. "If you save some strength, we''ll kill you, right?" My lord, don''t you blabber on like a woman.


    Mu Qiu Shui curled his lips, suddenly there was an arrow shooting at him. Not only did a big rock roll down the hill, Xi Jiu Er bit his lips and was annoyed that he did not know any martial arts, or else Mu Qiu Shui would not be working so hard, he would be a burden to him.


    The road in front of him had already been blocked by large rocks. Not only did Mu Qiu Shui want to avoid the rocks rolling down the mountain, she also wanted to protect herself.


    "Mu Qiu Shui, I''m sorry. I dragged you down." Xi Jiu Er said with guilt.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked down at her, thinking that even if he had to work even harder, these words would be worth it. His expression was solemn. The other party did not look like a simple bandit who was buying people for murder, but rather a well-trained soldier. Could it be that they were here for him? Most likely, well, did he implicate her?


    The two men who were forced to retreat gradually lost their stamina and retreated to the edge of the cliff! Mu Qiu Shui looked at the cliff and suddenly looked at Xi Jiu Er strangely: "Looks like we can only jump off and die together."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face froze. Leaping the cliff to be a martyr, she didn''t want that, but was there no other way? She had the spring water of the personal space. As long as she kept her breath, it would not be a problem, she was worried about Mu Qiu Shui.


    "No, we''re thinking of something." Xi Jiu Er firmly rejected the idea of jumping off a cliff.


    "There''s no retreat." Mu Qiu Shui hugged Xi Jiu Er tightly, "Don''t worry, we will definitely be safe and sound.


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" With a lifetime leap, Xi Jiu Er let out a shriek, burying her head into Mu Qiu Shui''s embrace and hugging both of her arms tightly. The wind whooshed past her ears, and the crackling sounds of tree branches passing through her dress;


    As long as she and Mu Qiu Shui still had a breath left in them, they would be safe and sound. The sudden drop slowed down until it stopped. Xi Jiu Er blankly raised her head to look. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that the whip in Mu Qiu Shui''s hand had wrapped around a tree branch at the edge of the cliff.


    Just as she heaved a sigh of relief, Mu Qiu Shui felt that his back was in extreme pain. He frowned: "My back seems to be injured."


    "Is that so? "What do we do then? It''s not a big deal for us to just fall off a cliff like that!" Xi Jiu Er hugged her waist, afraid that the whip wouldn''t be able to withstand the strength of the two, her heart was about to jump out.


    "If you hug me, I naturally have a way. Hold tight for a day and don''t let it slip away!" Mu Qiu Shui felt a burning pain on his back, he gritted his teeth and said, "Hurry up, I''m afraid I won''t be able to hold on for long."


    "Endure it." Xi Jiu Er used all of her strength to climb up, and with great difficulty, she fiercely hugged Mu Qiu Shui''s neck. She had already used up all of her strength, and was afraid that if she let go, she would fall down.


    "Look at you holding me in your arms... Cough ¡­ "You like me that much?" He half-joked as his soft body and the woman''s fragrance filled his mind.


    "Who likes you? Didn''t you tell me to hold on tighter? "Hurry up, I''m almost out of strength, you''re injured too ¡­" At this moment, he didn''t forget to joke around. He was truly convinced.


    "Wrap your legs around my waist. Your legs are blocking my legs." Mu Qiu Shui said.


    This time, Xi Jiu Er was not as straightforward, she was not a virgin, this posture was too embarrassing! She timidly held onto his waist, immediately feeling awkward. If she didn''t know about that bulge, she would be an idiot.


    "You." Xi Jiu Er was both embarrassed and angry.


    "I''m a woman, and this is a man''s normal reaction, okay?" Mu Qiu Shui was extremely embarrassed, but she couldn''t show it. After Xi Jiu Er crossed her legs, the feeling she had was really hard to describe!


    "You, you wait ¡­" Xi Jiu Er took out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom with much difficulty and asked Mu Qiu Shui to open his mouth. Mu Qiu Shui rolled his eyes and drank the water from the small porcelain bottle, "Miss Xi, it is said that a woman''s heart is like the bottom of the sea, you are a classic example."


    Xi Jiu Er twitched her mouth and ignored Mu Qiu Shui, thinking that it would be a dream for him to say anything good, he hugged Mu Qiu Shui tightly: "Why do you have such nightmares, ah."


    Mu Qiu Shui shook his hands to shake off the soft whip to another tree stump, and his body also swayed with the whip, swaying like a swing! Mu Qiu Shui gradually felt that his originally exhausted body was now full of vitality, as if he had an inexhaustible strength. The wound on his back was not as painful.


    Mu Qiu Shui was curious about what Xi Jiu Er had given him to drink, hence he turned around to ask her. With a few ups and downs, two people had already taken the opportunity to descend the cliff. Xi Jiu Er immediately got off Mu Qiu Shui''s body to check on his injuries. It made his heart feel warm!


    "Endure it, I''ll pull the arrow out for you." Xi Jiu Er frowned, holding onto the body of the arrow, he pulled.

 C67

    "Do you really want to know what I gave you to drink?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows and asked sternly. She nodded her head and asked curiously: "Of course I want to know what it is."


    "I advise you not to know." Xi Jiu Er looked strangely at Mu Qiu Shui who was leading the way, but was pulled by the arm by Mu Qiu Shui and stared at her earnestly.


    "Well, since you want to know so much, I''ll tell you. This is human saliva, haven''t you heard that saliva can cure a hundred diseases? " Xi Jiu Er said this'' truth ''in an extremely helpless manner. "


    "Uuu ¡ª you lied to me." What, drool? This is not true, this must be Xi Jiu Er deceiving me, how can it be saliva? Speaking of which, how could salivating possibly cure a hundred illnesses?


    "Why would I lie to you? "Don''t tell me I lied to you and you gave me back the river?" Xi Jiu Er rolled her eyes, that look really did not have any flaw, Mu Qiu Shui would not have believed it initially, but seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not seem to be lying, she immediately felt her stomach churning, and almost vomited.


    "No, you lied to me. Saliva should be stinky, why would it sound so dry? Are you lying to me? "Isn''t it?" He thought, "No, it tasted like spring water, so why is he drooling?" He could not imagine that he had taken a sip of water. How disgusting.


    "Don''t you know you can put sugar in it?" Seeing that he really believed it, Xi Jiu Er wanted to tease him even more. She was already laughing in her heart, this Mu Qiu Shui didn''t seem to be stupid, why was it that she couldn''t differentiate between the truth and protection? Like a child...


    "You, you, you swear." Mu Qiu Shui pointed to Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er said very helplessly: "If you want to believe this, then believe it. It''s fine if you don''t, but why are you swearing an oath?" Her vow was immediately exposed. She no longer looked down on reincarnation as much as she did in her previous life. She would naturally not speak nonsense like that again.


    The more Mu Qiu Shui thought about it, the more he felt that Xi Jiu Er was not lying. What drool, she almost fell for her trap.


    "Haha, you only know now." Xi Jiu Er laughed out loud.


    "Then tell me what it is." Mu Qiu Shui grabbed onto that thing, but did not release it. Xi Jiu Er said loudly: "Actually, that thing was made from extremely high quality medicinal herbs in the medicine shop. It''s an old method."


    Mn, Mu Qiu Shui believed a bit, Xi Jiu Er''s medicine shop only had expensive medicinal ingredients, to be able to get such good things, he was a martial artist so he naturally knew that there was such a thing.


    "Don''t run around, there might be some snakes and insects and beasts here, the one who will suffer when you fall is you!" Mu Qiu Shui called out to Xi Jiu Er, but he found that Xi Jiu Er was squatting on the ground and carefully examining a stalk of grass, and went over to ask: "What are you looking at?"


    "This seems to be the ''Ganwei Grass'' ¡­" Xi Jiu Er carefully dug out the Ganwei Grass and stuffed it into her pocket before placing it in the personal space. As for Qiu Qiu, she didn''t even know where he had gone to. Didn''t he say that he would tell his?


    "Why do you still care if it''s grass or not at a time like this? Hurry up and leave." Mu Qiu Shui pulled Xi Jiu Er and left, finding a cave based on his experience. "Seeing that the sky is about to turn dark, let''s just sleep for the night, we''ll leave tomorrow morning."


    "Alright, looks like you can do that as well." Xi Jiu Er looked at the sky. It was getting late, so this was all she could do.


    "Rest for a while, I''ll go find some food for you." Mu Qiu Shui set Xi Jiu Er up and built a fire inside the cave. This time, he went out. Not only was Xi Jiu Er, who was always worried, relieved that her entire body was exhausted, she was also about to fall asleep.


    He should sleep in the space for a while, and take the Gangwei Grass to the space for planting. It was unknown when the sky turned dark and the bonfire was almost completely lit. The people outside the cave made weird noises, causing her to flinch.


    "Mu Qiu Shui? Mu Qiu Shui! " Xi Jiu Er shouted towards the outside of the cave, but no one replied. Did she lose herself and run away, or did she encounter some kind of accident? Doubt? The sound of water could be heard in the cave ¡­ She trembled in fear and walked away after thinking for a while.


    After walking for more than ten steps, the cave suddenly became spacious and bright. The waterfall cascaded down in front of his eyes and through the water curtain, he could see the man with long naked hair bathing in the pool. Xi Jiu Er squinted his eyes and thought that this figure was very familiar ¡­ How could he imagine Mu Qiu Shui?


    "Mu Qiu Shui?" Xi Jiu Er shouted uncertainly, and that person turned around to openly say that Mu Qiu Shui was not a bystander! Mu Qiu Shui was very beautiful, but this was the first time Xi Jiu Er felt that his beauty was so soul-stirring! Mu Qiu Shui stood in the water and looked down. He was shocked to see that he was slowly awakening.


    "AHH!"


    "AHH!"


    The two of them screamed at the same time, causing Xi Jiu Er''s face to instantly flush red. She suddenly turned around and cursed: "You, you scoundrel, you, you scum."


    Mu Qiu Shui was initially embarrassed, but after hearing Xi Jiu Er''s words, he did not feel awkward anymore. He only felt wronged, "Can''t you blame me for this, you were the one who wanted to see for yourself okay? How am I vulgar? Woman, you really know how to slander people. "


    Xi Jiu Er was fuming, she felt that she was being reckless, but she couldn''t blame her, she had just asked curiously, wouldn''t he just hide it for a bit?


    Mu Qiu Shui bitterly put on his clothes and said: "You woman, seriously, it was me who suffered a loss and got scolded by you, it is truly unfair."


    "You''re being too polite, aren''t you!?" Xi Jiu Er''s face turned red, he stomped his feet and scolded Mu Qiu Shui, causing Mu Qiu Shui''s smile to widen, and laughed: "Why don''t I let you have a look?"


    "You!" Xi Jiu Er was furious, it was obvious that this shameless man was here to play with her, she angrily said: "Alright, why don''t you take it off for me?"


    Looking at her reaction just now, it was obvious that she was being shy, and looking at her current expression, she was obviously trying to be brave. Mu Qiu Shui took off her pants while raising her eyebrows and looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.


    "I''m really going to strip!" Seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not react, Mu Qiu Shui threatened.


    "Take it off. I can''t wait any longer." Xi Jiu Er acted as if she was impatient, causing Mu Qiu Shui to not retreat at all, and said: "Then I''ll take it off, I''ll take it off ¡­ ¡­"


    "Just how long are you going to take it off? If you want to take it off, then hurry up. Come, let me take it off for you. It''s so annoying." Xi Jiu Er sat up on the rock and acted like she was going to pull Mu Qiu Shui''s pants, causing Mu Qiu Shui to realize that he had been tricked by Xi Jiu Er.''s face reddened and he said stubbornly: "I, I am thinking for your reputation."


    "Hmph." Xi Jiu Er snorted coldly, this man only had her mouth to shout sometimes, she pointed at the fire and said: "There''s no more fire."


    "You picked the fruit and put it by the pool. It has already been washed. I will go chop some firewood and bring it back." Just as Mu Qiu Shui was about to leave, Xi Jiu Er called out to him. "Do you want to use your bath to wash the fruits?"


    "No!" Mu Qiu Shui gritted his teeth.


    "As long as it isn''t the case." Only then did Xi Jiu Er feel at ease, and waved her hand to let Mu Qiu Shui move a little. After Mu Qiu Shui left, Xi Jiu Er looked at the pool of water. Although the water was still fresh, it was still unbearable.


    After showering, Xi Jiu Er''s entire being was very comfortable. Qiu Qiu had long ago told himself that although the space was good, it could not be spent for long. She was a mortal after all, and her consciousness was very weak. Space could only bear things but not living beings, so her body could not enter.


    Qiu Qiu was not in the space, where did he run off to? As Xi Jiu Er ate the fruit, she thought, this fruit was more like an apple, sour, sweet and astringent, at least it was better than nothing.


    "He''s back!"


    Mu Qiu Shui hugged Qian Chao saw Xi Jiu Er sitting on the stone while swinging her legs and smiled faintly at him. He suddenly felt that he was like a husband and Xi Jiu Er was her wife.


    Mu Qiu Shui made a bonfire and looked at Xi Jiu Er''s bitter face. He immediately stood up and said, "I''ll go and get some game for you."


    Xi Jiu Er quickly replied: No need, if something were to happen to you in this dark sky, what would happen to me? It''s not like you''re going to starve to death in one night. " After Mu Qiu Shui left, he left her here. She did not want him to stay, especially if something were to happen to Mu Qiu Shui. She would not survive without any exceptions!


    "What, you care about me!" Mu Qiu Shui leaned over and saw that Xi Jiu Er''s face was no longer dirty, and the injuries on his body had mostly recovered as well. He looked at Xi Jiu Er in shock and thought of the question he had asked before, "What exactly did you give me to drink previously?


    Xi Jiu Er shook his head: "I already told you that it was based on a prescription. I was always naughty and ended up getting hurt from the fall, and sometimes I even got into fights with Xi Wan Rong. So I asked for this prescription.


    "That''s quite good. Why don''t you put this in the rouge and there will definitely be many women buying it out?" Before, Mu Qiu Shui had many doubts, but now he believed it.


    "Aiya, you are indeed intelligent. Why didn''t I think of this road to becoming rich? Seriously, it''s a failure, a failure. Thank you." Xi Jiu Er''s eyes turned. Aiya, this is a good way to earn silver, why didn''t she think of it? Too bad, too bad.


    "You ¡­ "You ¡­" As soon as he heard the word ''silver'', his face immediately became lively, and his eyes shone with a dazzling light. Mu Qiu Shui thought for a while, "Are you not doing well in Xi Family?"


    "Good, very good. Why do you feel that it''s not good?" That was before, and that was in her previous life. She was living a good life in this life, and she was no longer as blind as in her previous life. She clearly knew who her enemies were.

 C68

    CHAPTER 68 - Whose life was it?


    "Is that so? I think today''s assassins are here for you. " Mu Qiu Shui did not believe that Xi Jiu Er was living a good life in the Xi Family. He could see that even the Xi Family was crowding out Xi Jiu Er.


    "Is that so? However, I felt that they were coming for you. When I thought back to the arrows on your back, they didn''t seem like the type of crossbows that the murderers and robbers would normally have. I believe that Your Highness should know where those crossbows came from very well. " Outsiders believed that Mu Qiu Shui was the playboy king but she did not believe it. Mu Qiu Shui had obviously taken someone''s hint to hide her true personality, so other than the current zodiac, she could not think of anyone else.


    "You''re quite intelligent. Not bad, that crossbow has some history. I''m not the only one ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er appreciatively: "But it might not be against me, maybe First Lady Xi has sent people to kill you, but it might not be so."


    "Anything is possible." Xi Jiu Er concluded, then nodded her head: "I will do some research on it. It''s getting late, you stay here on the rock for the night, I''ll sit by the door to guard it." After saying that, she sat cross-legged at the door as if she was resting with her eyes closed.


    "You ¡­" The fire would crackle from time to time, and was very cold on the rocks. Even though there was a layer of dry grass on the rocks, it was still very cold. While Xi Jiu Er was worrying about the safety of ex-sister-in-law and the others, she gradually fell into a deep sleep.


    Mu Qiu Shui, who had been closing his eyes and resting at the door, slowly opened them. Not a single bit of sleepiness could be seen in his eyes as he looked deeply at Xi Jiu Er. He got up from the cave entrance, took out something and pulled at the other end. Mu Qiu Shui looked at the moonlight above him, who exactly was he killing this time? Was it himself or Xi Jiu Er? Both of them could talk about the past...


    Mu Qiu Shui also found some firewood and added fuel to the fire. There was water in the cave, and the wind was strong. Who knows, she might get sick ¡­ As he thought about it, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but look. The little girl didn''t seem to be very safe.


    "Cold ¡­" When Mu Qiu Shui heard Xi Jiu Er say this, he didn''t think too much and went up to lie with her in his embrace. The person in his embrace seemed to have found a way to rely on him and burrowed into his embrace like a little dog. Mu Qiu Shui''s heart had already melted into a puddle of water.


    Sleep gradually came, and Mu Qiu Shui hugged Xi Jiu Er as he fell into a deep sleep. In Xi Mansion''s room under the same night sky, the Wang Ma said in a soft voice, "Madame, you have already confirmed that you have fallen off a cliff."


    "Hmm, there aren''t any marks on the first floor, right?" It was not the first time she did this, and she was already numb to it. However, it was different this time, she did not expect Prince Xian to be here, and both of them fell off the cliff. If this matter got out of hand, it would be a great crime that would affect all nine clans.


    "Madame, they said that once they get the silver, they will leave. They will never appear again."


    Is that so? First Lady only hoped that none of this would be discovered, and both Xi Jiu Er and Prince Xian should die quickly! This way, aside from having a big problem in her heart ¡­ After instructing the Wang Ma to prepare the box and give it to him, the Phoebe would pass it over to them and tell them to hurry up and leave so that they wouldn''t need to come back.


    "Yes." The Wang Ma nodded.


    First Lady tiredly laid back on the bed. Not long after, he dreamt that not only would Xi Jiu Er find him and find him to take his life, he would also want to exterminate his entire clan. Wan Rong, Wan Feng and Xi Mao all cried and begged for mercy, asking to be blamed together.


    When the servant saw her expression, she knew that she was having a nightmare and had even treated her with care. After drinking some water to moisten her lips, First Lady''s expression relaxed a little, and after lying down again, she gradually fell asleep.


    The next morning, Xi Jiu Er smelled the smell of barbecue, and it was extremely fragrant. She opened her eyes and saw Mu Qiu Shui holding the barbecue, with a shape of a pheasant, she did not know if it was true.


    "You''re up? Sit down and eat. " Mu Qiu Shui indicated for Xi Jiu Er to sit, tore off a chicken leg and gave it to Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er carefully took it. After blowing on it for a while, she slowly started to eat. Although there was no taste, it was already pretty good to eat like this.


    "It smells so good, your grilled meat tastes so good." Xi Jiu Er praised from the bottom of her heart.


    Mu Qiu Shui grinned and started to eat as well. After finishing, he got Mu Qiu Shui to give him a pair of wings and eat happily, his mouth full of oil. He did not look like a lady at all, but the smile on Mu Qiu Shui''s face became bigger and bigger.


    After eating and resting for a while, Mu Qiu Shui brought along the dagger in his boots and headed towards the forest. There were too many forest serpents and ferocious beasts. He repeatedly told Xi Jiu Er to follow him and not to touch anything carelessly, just like last night''s incident with the ''Sweet Wei Grass'', he did not want it to happen again.


    All around them, in the forest and trees, weird sounds randomly sounded out. No one knew what kind of animal it was, but all kinds of snakes could be seen on the vines. Xi Jiu Er''s face was pale white as she followed closely behind Mu Qiu Shui, not daring to relax in the slightest.


    Fortunately, they had not encountered any danger during this period of time. Looking at the sun in the sky, Xi Jiu Er asked, "When will we be able to leave?"


    "I don''t know ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui said indifferently: "I already sent a signal last night, I hope that they can find us as soon as possible!"


    "So it''s like that ¡­" Xi Jiu Er looked at the trees in front of him. Other than them, there were only trees. After the two of them rested for a while, they started to move again. Xi Jiu Er was still a noble Miss, so they gradually could not move anymore. Mu Qiu Shui, who was in front of them, said, "Do you want me to carry you?"


    "No need." Xi Jiu Er took out the small porcelain bottle and drank some spring water. After recovering a little, she passed it to Mu Qiu Shui and said: "Drink some too.


    Mu Qiu Shui gave Xi Jiu Er a strange look before stepping forward and drinking the porcelain bottle in his hand. Then, he returned the bottle to Xi Jiu Er. Only then did Xi Jiu Er realized that did they realize that they had not ¡­ Is it a kiss... She secretly hated Mu Qiu Shui, the hypocrite, for not telling her.


    "Let''s go. There''s no need to fuss about it at this time ¡­" Looking at the angry Xi Jiu Er, Mu Qiu Shui hurriedly found an excuse, hoping that Xi Jiu Er would not play with her temper at this time, regardless of whether the other party''s temper was female or not, if the female got angry ¡­


    "Alright, let''s go." Xi Jiu Er curled her lips: "Look at how scared you are, I won''t eat you again." I was afraid that you would cause trouble at this time, Mu Qiu Shui thought.


    "Your Highness ¡­" "Prince ¡­" It was unknown which direction the sound came from, but when they heard the voice of someone calling ''Duke'' from far away, both Xi Jiu Er and Mu Qiu Shui looked at each other with a trace of happiness in their eyes. Just as Mu Qiu Shui was about to reply, he was stopped by Xi Jiu Er and said softly, "What if it''s someone who came to kill you? Let''s see if this person is trustworthy. "


    Mu Qiu Shui thought so, what if they were here for him? Even if it was a prince, he might just stab you in the back! There would be a sound again.


    "Prince ¡­"


    "Miss... Miss, where are you?! "


    "Miss, Miss... "Sob, sob ¡­"


    This was the voice of Shui Xian, ex-sister-in-law and the rest. The two of them could finally relax now, Xi Jiu Er and Mu Qiu Shui shouted, "We are here, we are here ¡­"


    "Miss, where are you? Where is it? " Liu Xiang''s urgent voice seemed to be on the verge of tears, "Wuu, I heard Miss''s voice ¡­."


    "Cry, cry, you only know how to cry!" Hearing you say that it''s fine is a good thing, prove that your Miss is not dead. " When Shui Xian said the word "die", he was gnashing his teeth in anger. This stinking woman''s life was really big, the heavens really didn''t have eyes for her even though she was still alive. Hmph, it was definitely the prince who saved her. I wonder how the prince is doing?


    "We have to find a way to let them know we''re here." Xi Jiu Er asked: "Do you have any ideas?"


    "We can build a fire and smoke it. That''ll attract them." Mu Qiu Shui suddenly thought of a method that immediately garnered Xi Jiu Er''s approval!


    Look, it''s Yan Yan in front, Miss is definitely there! Ouch, what are you doing! " Liu Xiang''s dissatisfied voice could be heard from afar: "You don''t have eyes."


    "Humph!" Shui Xian only snorted coldly ¡­


    Shui Xian was the first one to find them, hence Shui Xian went forward happily: "This is great, it seems that Your Highness is fine. I was afraid something might happen to you if you were implicated. "


    In the end, Shui Xian did not even glance at Xi Jiu Er, since she was not related to him at all. Her enmity towards him made Xi Jiu Er feel funny, as and her did not have anything to do with each other, but Mu Qiu Shui was the one who was bored and came to play with him.


    "Miss ¡­" Being supported by ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui, Liu Xiang limped over. The three of them were very excited, so Xi Jiu Er immediately went forward to support Liu Xiang and asked in concern: "Liu Xiang, what''s wrong?"


    "Nothing, I was in too much of a hurry, I accidentally twisted my ankle ¡­" Miss, I am so happy to see that you are alright. Don''t you know that I, ex-sister-in-law, and Liu Shui can''t sleep at night when you and I are jumping off a cliff? I was just afraid that something might happen to you ¡­ " The more Liu Xiang spoke, the darker his face became. She immediately interrupted him and said, "Fortunately, you are safe and sound in Miss.


    "Buddha bless? Why didn''t you thank the prince? If it weren''t for the fact that the Miss in your family had already died hundreds of times, why are you still thanking the Buddha! "Humph!" Shui Xian was very happy that Mu Qiu Shui was safe and sound, and was also unhappy that Xi Jiu Er was safe and sound. After all, they had to disfigure his face, even if they did not disfigure his face, they would at least lose an arm and a leg! Now that she heard the ex-sister-in-law say something about Xie Puti being blessed by the heavens, she got angry.

 C69

    "Thank you, Your Highness!" ex-sister-in-law and the others were already used to Shui Xian''s attitude, and could tell that Shui Xian did not like his master, but they also understood why. Prince Xian did not comment on her attitude, and felt that his master was not a good husband.


    Prince Xian had a bad reputation and liked to flirt with women. Although he was more beautiful than women, what was the use of being beautiful? Look at the Shui Xian beside him, they all hated him.


    "There''s no need to be polite, it''s just a small matter." Mu Qiu Shui laughed faintly, and Shui Xian snorted coldly: "My prince, what do you mean by ''easy''? You''re risking your life just like that ¡­" She wanted to complain a little, but seeing Mu Qiu Shui''s gloomy eyes looking at her, she bitterly shut her mouth.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned on the horse carriage with a dark expression and did not speak. This time, not only did she almost lose her life, she also took a large majority of the silver notes and followed the horse carriage and disappeared. Fortunately, there were some at ex-sister-in-law. Otherwise, he would have to drink the entire journey to the northwest wind.


    "I''m glad to see that all of you are fine." Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips: "Tell me what you think."


    Liu Shui muttered to himself for a moment before continuing, "Miss feels that this time, it is directed at you."


    The ex-sister-in-law nodded her head in agreement with Liu Shui''s point of view: "Miss, I think the same. I heard Liu Shui say that the crossbows used by the bandits are not ordinary crossbows and thought that they were invited at a heavy price."


    Liu Xiang frowned slightly, "Miss, Servant feels that other than First Lady, I can''t think of anyone else who wants your life.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes became colder: "I''m afraid she is, other than her, I can''t think of anyone else who would want to kill me." The carriage travelled forward, and the carriage behind also discussed the matter of the assassination, but they were discussing whether the one killed was Mu Qiu Shui or not.


    "How''s the investigation going?" Mu Qiu Shui closed his eyes to recuperate, his expression a little tired, but his tone was like the omen of a storm.


    Shui Xian did not dare be careless, and immediately reported back in a righteous manner: "Royal Highness, this matter is very strange, they are well-trained and nimble, they do not seem to be normal robbers who kill people, this subordinate will send people to investigate but will find nothing, but I am certain that they are not my people, as for the target of their investigation, this subordinate thinks that it would be you, your highness, if it was Miss who killed them, why are you looking for these people? They are powerless, even if Liu Shui is skilled, he would not be able to protect so many people in an instant ¡­ "


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head: "En, continue investigating."


    "Prince, why are you following Miss Xi?" Shui Xian couldn''t help but ask about the doubts in her heart. Although her master liked Xi Jiu Er, it was insignificant when compared to the major affairs of the country;


    "You mind your own business." Mu Qiu Shui rubbed his nose. "What we need to do now is to follow Xi Jiu Er ¡­"


    "Yes." Shui Xian replied after pausing for a while.


    The horse Shui Xian found here had the ability to travel a thousand miles in a day without blinking an eye. Not only did it have a whole new level of respect for Shui Xian, it also had a new level of respect for him. Xi Jiu Er did not want to delay the rest of the journey, so it was more important to continue!


    The south bank of the Huai River would probably arrive tomorrow, so he decided to stay out for the night. Originally, they wanted to go to the town, but the previous town had been flooded and hadn''t been repaired for so many years. The people in the town had either died or fled, and they never came back.


    "Miss, this place is so eerie ¡­" Liu Xiang looked at the surrounding pitch black trees. She felt that there was a shadow moving behind the tree, which scared her so much that her face turned pale white.


    ex-sister-in-law comforted her, "Don''t be afraid, we''re all here."


    Liu Shui, on the other hand, consoled himself with a single glance at Liu Xiang ¡­ As the few of them were roasting and eating rations beside the bonfire, another bonfire was bustling with noise and excitement! Shui Xian danced around the fire, and from time to time, he would even croon a few words. Her beautiful body was captivated by the light of the fire, and her smile was very beautiful ¡­ Of course, that was towards Mu Qiu Shui, and looking at Xi Jiu Er, it became an appearance of arsenic.


    "How terrifying ¡­" Liu Xiang trembled.


    ex-sister-in-law was delighted, but Drain did not say anything. He took out a paper bag and scattered some of the powder from the paper bag on the horse''s body and around it, then scattered some around the horse carriage.


    "Liu Shui, what are you doing?" Liu Xiang asked.


    "This is insect repellent powder, it can also protect you from snakes!" Liu Shui explained and asked Shui Xian: "Does Miss Shui Xian want it?"


    Shui Xian''s attitude towards Liu Shui was still alright, at least she was not against it. It was probably because martial artists had something in common. Shui Xian nodded and scattered the paper bag over. Liu Xiang found her unpleasing to the eye, and said: "Why don''t you even thank her?"


    Shui Xian could not bear to see Liu Xiang''s stupid look the most, so she snorted coldly: "It''s not like I''m using your stuff, who else can you say thank me for?"


    "You!" Liu Xiang stared at Shui Xian and turned her head to look at the bonfire angrily. She knew that Shui Xian despised her and she did not like Shui Xian either.


    "Where are you going?" Mu Qiu Shui walked over to Xi Jiu Er and asked. At such a close distance, he could see that her skin was as smooth as an infant''s.


    "I would actually like to ask, why are you following me?" Xi Jiu Er did not reply with a question.


    "I have nothing to do, so if I meet someone I know, I''ll just follow you." "Little girl, why do you have such a bad attitude? No matter what, I am your savior, and this is how you treat your savior?" Mu Qiu Shui felt very angry when she saw her attitude. Can''t this damn girl talk to me properly? Does it have to be prickly? Not cute at all, not likeable.


    "Humph, savior, maybe those people are here for you, I think it''s because of you!" No matter who it was that was being targeted at, she did not like Mu Qiu Shui being so hypocritical.


    "You, you!" Shui Xian was angered: "Why don''t you know what''s good for you?"


    "Don''t interrupt our master when he speaks." Xi Jiu Er frowned, she was a little agitated now. ''Sun Kong Ming'' did not know whether he was dead or alive, but this town had already been destroyed, so wouldn''t it be the same as the one on the south shore of the Huai River? She didn''t want to come here for nothing.


    "You!" Shui Xian was furious, without looking back, she jumped onto the carriage, lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.


    "I''m tired, I''m going to rest. Prince, you should go to sleep as well!" Xi Jiu Er also stood up and greeted Mu Qiu Shui before entering the carriage. This Shui Xian pouted inside the carriage. Prince, do you see this? The woman you like has this kind of attitude towards you, if you still like her, then you must be sick.


    After a while, Mu Qiu Shui also got into the carriage. There was nothing wrong with his expression, Shui Xian just thought that he would be angry at him! Shui Xian had already made the bed, and seeing that the floor was quite wide, he suggested that the two of them sleep together. Shui Xian was stumped for words, and then said uncertainly, "This, this isn''t a good idea, is it ¡­"


    "What''s wrong? Go to sleep. We''ll probably have to hurry on our journey tomorrow. I wonder where this girl will go ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui murmured as he fell asleep. The news of him and Xi Jiu Er still being alive was not announced to the public, so many people had already died!


    Of course, this was only on the surface. First Lady was not the main culprit for this, she did not dare reveal it, since the other party had already caused the death of a prince, and now that zodiac was so angry, saying that she wanted to investigate the culprit thoroughly, she was already scared out of her mind. She wanted to think about how to resolve this matter.


    Xi Wan Rong was happy that Xi Jiu Er had died, but sad that the man she liked had also died! She believed that Xi Jiu Er was dead, but she could not believe that Mu Qiu Shui was dead too!


    "Dead ¡­" "How could he have died ¡­" Xi Wan Rong cried. Her eyes were swollen from crying, no matter how Si Ping tried to persuade her, she could not go to First Lady, it would be hard to be her servant.


    How could First Lady possibly control Xi Wan Rong? She frowned and said: "If she wants to cry, then let her cry. If she cries, then she will forget about everyone else."


    "Yes."


    Xi Jiu Er''s death didn''t matter much to Xi Wan Feng. She wasn''t after the Xi Family, so she naturally had her own mother and Xi Wan Rong to take care of. She was too lazy to ask either. She was just wondering who had done it. Was it done by the mother? did not have the guts to kill even the King of the imperial court.


    Who could it be? Xi Wan Feng thought for a bit. She had no clue so she decided not to think about it anymore. Right now, the most important thing for her was how to enter the palace. Mubai... I have to tell mother to contact him properly! Mubai''s help was indispensable.


    When Third Wife heard the news that he was chatting with Yan Er, both of them were shocked. Did Ninth Miss die? Third Wife told the maidservants to leave, leaving the Mother Fang to wait upon them.


    "Do you think the Ninth Miss is dead?" Xi Jiu Er had given her a lot of help. When she was at her most disappointed, when she was at her worst, she had extended a helping hand, she was grateful.


    Yan Er thought for a while, before replying confidently, "My guess is that Ninth Miss is not dead yet."


    "Why are you so sure?" Third Wife asked.


    Yan Er shook her head. She thought for a while and said, "This is a feeling in my heart, I feel that the Ninth Miss is not a person with fate. Furthermore, she has a spring, so the miraculous spring water will probably revive her in one breath. Therefore, it might not be so easy for Ninth Miss to die. "


    "What?" Jiu Er... Jiu Er and Prince Xian are dead? " Wei Guogong did not believe the news at all. Just a few days ago, Madame died? Impossible, this is impossible! Her granddaughter has a life-saving spring water ¡­ Yes, the spring for saving lives, they''ll be fine, they''ll be fine. After comforting herself a few times, he stopped being agitated. She went to the study room to write a few large words in praise of the Buddhist scriptures before gradually calming down.

    Xi Jiu Er found a village on the southern shore of the Huai River. There were only a few families living in this village, and the arrival of Xi Jiu Er and her group caused quite a stir in the village.


    The majority of the people left in the small village were old people. According to Xi Jiu Er, the reason why the ex-sister-in-law was able to find out about the news was that there was a flood in the village, causing them to live out of luck. Unfortunately, their loved ones either died or fled, and they did not even bring their lives with them.


    The group of 20 or so people gradually became 30 or so people. Later on, they discovered this village. Although most of the houses were destroyed by the flood, some of the houses were still fit for living, so they settled down!


    It had been seven or eight years, and most of them had already died. Some people were kind enough to see that the homeless and abandoned children would be saved. Everyone would be raised together, so there were many children in the village.


    The dilapidated houses, the stooped backs of the old women, the innocent and curious faces of the children, everything made them sad. They were too old to work, so they could only eat one mouthful a day!


    "Elites, what are you doing here? Did he come to save us? "We don''t need to save them. We''re just a bunch of old women. It won''t be long before we die. I beg you all, please save the children. The children are still young and there are still many ways to go ¡­" As the old man spoke, he couldn''t help but shed tears. He touched the child that was obediently lying on his lap. The child''s eyes were wide open as he curiously stared at them, revealing a cute smile.


    Xi Jiu Er said gently, "Old granny, don''t worry. The imperial government will save everyone ¡­ Including children. " She was also a child without a mother. Her father was just a decoration to her! The Xi Family did not feel the slightest bit of warmth towards her ¡­ She only felt lonely and filled with hatred while living in the Xi Family.


    The old granny shook her head, "The court? "I cannot trust the imperial government ¡­"


    Mu Qiu Shui stood at the door, and the Shui Xian behind him had a change of expression as she bit her lips. Looking at the child''s pair of eyes that was shot at her out of curiosity, her eyes felt sore, and she said in a small voice: "Your Highness, we must definitely help them."


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head, the zodiac had already worked hard in this area, but there were still some officials who turned the tables on him. These elderly people should be living a happy life, having the urge to bear the consequences, but they were just like duckweed who had no direction ¡­ This was the sorrow of a person''s old life.


    "Old granny, don''t worry. Even if the imperial government does not care about you, we will not sit back and do nothing. Look, this is the prince of the imperial government. He will save you and your child. Old granny, don''t worry." Xi Jiu Er felt her heart tearing up, she pulled Mu Qiu Shui over to the old man and said solemnly.


    "Hehehe ¡­" "That would be for the best ¡­" The old granny looked at Mu Qiu Shui. This man was really pretty, it didn''t matter if he was a prince or not, what was important was that they had money, and with that money, they would be able to save her grandson.


    "Old granny, I want to ask you about a person. He''s about the same age as you, he''s a Lord of Master. His medical skills are very outstanding." Xi Jiu Er asked.


    The grandma thought for a while before saying, "There''s such a person ¡­"


    "Is that so? "Where is it?" Xi Jiu Er immediately asked.


    The old granny instructed her grandson, "Go, bring these noble people to find the Master''s grandfather." Suddenly, she grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s hand and said, ", you must keep your promise. If you save my grandson, if I die, he won''t be able to live for long."


    "Granny, don''t worry. I''ll take care of your grandson from now on." Xi Jiu Er promised, how could she reject the old granny''s eyes? A child, she has the ability to raise the child.


    "What''s your name?" Xi Jiu Er asked gently while holding his hand. The child was tall and thin. Her clothes were dirty, but her smile was exceptionally innocent and beautiful.


    "Gou Dan!" The child said obediently. He was afraid of getting close to them, because his mother-in-law had told him that he couldn''t afford to offend them. Moreover, they were dressed so cleanly and prettily that he had to stay far away from them in fear of dirtying them and making them unhappy.


    "Come here!" Only when the older sister with the sweet smile beckoned him did he dare to go in. When she held him, he was very scared but also very happy. Along the way, the child had endless questions. He could answer any of them, and he was very smart.


    "Gou Dan is very smart." Xi Jiu Er truly felt that Gou Dan was around the same age as him, but Xi Mao was far from being as tactful as him, and was also not as sensible as Gou Dan. Most probably, the children of the poor families should have already taken charge of their families, and those children that lived in the Shangguan family were all taken care of by other servants, even if they had a concubine.


    Gou Dan laughed a little embarrassedly and whispered to Xi Jiu Er: "Elder sister, that big brother is so beautiful, but we also have a big brother here who is even more beautiful than him, at that grandfather''s home."


    "Here, this is where grandpa''s house is ¡­" Gou Dan led Xi Jiu Er to a house and shouted, "Grandfather, grandfather, someone is looking for you."


    "Grandpa ¡­" Gou Dan saw that there was no reaction and said.


    With a creaking sound, the door opened, and the wooden door that was incomplete let out an ear-piercing sound, making people unable to endure it anymore. At this time, a beautiful voice that was like a clear spring sounded out: "Is this Gou Dan?" A man that didn''t look like he had been lead in any way opened the door and smiled. However, his smile instantly froze ¡­ Because who did he see?


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression could be said to be plentiful as shock, panic and other emotions surged like a flower. Her mind only had one thought, how could he be here? Why was he here?


    This man was no stranger, he was Feng Qing Cheng!


    "Big brother, this big sis Miss and her friends have come to find master Master ¡­ Is grandpa home? " Gou Dan still couldn''t really understand her expression, so the others standing behind Xi Jiu Er couldn''t see it either. They could only see that Feng Qing Cheng''s face was a little stiff. He even mistakenly thought that he had seen so many guests.


    "Grandpa is here." Feng Qing Cheng stopped his thoughts, and looked at the people who came over cautiously. Did they come to look for Sun Kong Ming? What was his purpose? How did they know Sun Kong Ming was here?


    "Big sister, grandpa is here." The child happily pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand and walked inside. Xi Jiu Er turned around and said to the people behind him: "It''s enough for me to go in by myself, you guys don''t need to come." As for whether Mu Qiu Shui came or not, she didn''t dare guarantee that he wouldn''t come, and since Mu Qiu Shui wasn''t her servant, he wouldn''t necessarily listen to what she said. Furthermore, Mu Qiu Shui had followed him for so long, he reckoned that she just wanted to see his true purpose.


    Just as expected, Mu Qiu Shui instructed Shui Xian who was behind him: "Wait right here."


    Gou Dan held Xi Jiu Er''s hand and walked inside. Mu Qiu Shui followed behind curiously, but when they passed by Feng Qing Cheng, he curiously sized up the man who was as beautiful as himself. Right now, Feng Qing Cheng''s mind was filled with thoughts ¡ª They had met again!


    That night, after she knocked him out, he couldn''t find her again. It wasn''t as if he had never seen a woman before, but that person gave him a feeling that was difficult to forget for the rest of his life! He had never expected to see her today!


    The inside of the house was very simple and was very clean. Gou Dan went in and called out for his'' grandfather ''a few times, then the cough of an old man came from inside the house with a voice as loud as a mosquito: "Is this Gou Dan?"


    "Grandfather, are you sick?" Gou Dan threw Xi Jiu Er down and went inside, Xi Jiu Er immediately followed behind him, Mu Qiu Shui followed closely behind, and then there was Feng Qing Cheng.


    "Grandpa ¡­"


    In the room, there was a bed that looked like it was about to fall apart. On the bed, a skinny old man lovingly touched Gou Dan''s head, and just as he was about to say something, he saw Xi Jiu Er and the rest ¡­ He paused for a moment, then softly said to Gou Dan: "Gou Dan, you go out first. Grandpa has matters to attend to."


    "Alright." Gou Dan left quickly.


    "Who are you?" The old man wanted to sit up, but he did not have the strength. Feng Qing Cheng immediately went forward to help him sit up, and leaned against him.


    "I am Xi Jiu Er, daughter of the capital''s Xi Family ¡­" As Xi Jiu Er said this, she clearly felt the face of the white clothed man in front of him stiffen. Hah, she probably never would have thought that he was the daughter of a famous clan in the capital.


    "May I ask if you are Senior Sun Kong Ming?" Xi Jiu Er asked softly.


    Sun Kong Ming? Mu Qiu Shui looked at the dying old man on the bed in shock. It was actually Sun Kong Ming? The rare medical genius Sun Kong Ming? He had not expected the attack to come looking for him.


    "Exactly." The old man said indifferently. Since the other party had already come looking for him, how could he possibly argue with him? He then asked, "Why has Miss Xi come to find me?"


    "I would like to request Elder Sun''s prescription." Xi Jiu Er enunciated each word: "I beg Elder Sun to bestow me the medicinal formula for treating smallpox, I am forever grateful."


    "Smallpox? Heh ¡ª If you can''t cure smallpox, then you''ll have to rely on your own life. I don''t have a cure for smallpox, so go, Miss Xi. " Sun Kong Ming laughed coldly, since ancient times, smallpox was one of the hardest illnesses to treat, how could he have the ability to do so?


    "Let''s invite this young master out and you out. I also want to have a private chat with Old Senior Sun." What he wanted to say next couldn''t be overheard by others, so Xi Jiu Er could only shamelessly say it out loud!


    Mu Qiu Shui knew that this was a matter of great importance. The reason why Xiu Er chose to do this was definitely because of the small-time students in the capital. A strange feeling rose in her heart when she heard call her master, and couldn''t help but feel that it was a strange feeling. When she left, she brushed past Xi Jiu Er and gave her a glance.


    "Old senior, there''s smallpox in the capital ¡­" Xi Jiu Er threw a huge piece of information to Sun Kong Ming. Sun Kong Ming was a genius in medicine, he could save countless lives and have the heart of a buddha.

 C71

    "There''s smallpox in the capital?" Sun Kong Ming did not take this matter to heart, but when Xiu Er described the situation of the small pox in the capital, Sun Kong Ming started to pay attention to it, and said with extreme helplessness: "I can''t do anything about the small pox ¡­ Furthermore, there''s no such thing as a prescription. Miss Xi, you found the wrong person. "


    "Old Senior Sun, I am looking for you!" Xi Jiu Er slowly walked over and took out the small porcelain bottle as she played with it: "Old senior Sun, you have saved and benefited the common people your entire life, and have been praised and praised by the common folk. Jiu Er is truly impressed, today Jiu Er wishes for old senior to keep a secret for him and vow not to leak out this secret, so Jiu Er decided to tell him the reason to find old senior."


    Sun Kong Ming had saved countless people in her life but she could not save herself. He had long seen through the life and death of the world, and it was impossible for him to live past his life and there was also a lot of life that had passed through his hands. She had lived to this age and there was nothing she could not understand! Therefore, swearing an oath was nothing more than passing the scene.


    "Alright, I, Sun Kong Ming, swear today that I will not divulge the secret of Miss Xi, or else I will be struck by lightning." After Sun Kong Ming finished this sentence, he suddenly coughed.


    Xi Jiu Er gave the water in the small porcelain bottle to Sun Kong Ming to drink, and Sun Kong Ming gulped it down without fear. Xi Jiu Er joked, "Old Senior Sun, are you not afraid of the poison I fed you?"


    "Even if it''s poison, it''s still good. I need to free myself from it as soon as possible." Sun Kong Ming laughed indifferently, waiting for Xi Jiu Er to reveal her secret. However, Xi Jiu Er only started chatting with him, she asked: "Who is that white-clothed gongzi?"


    "He''s my disciple." Sun Kong Ming''s expression remained indifferent, but suddenly his expression changed, he felt his entire body being wrapped up by a warm current, his internal organs seemed to have started to become filled with energy from exhaustion, he knew what this was because he was a doctor and when he tried to cut his own veins, he was shocked to find that they had started to recover, his pulse gradually becoming stronger. He felt much better, and his vision began to clear up!


    "What, just what is this? You, what did you feed me!" Sun Kong Ming''s expression changed. This thing was too mystical, it was simply too mystical, he estimated that he would be dead in less than three days, he did not expect that he was better now, and better again. It wouldn''t be a problem to live another seven or eight years.


    Looking at the fervor in Sun Kong Ming''s eyes, Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I found this in an ancient book, and heard that it was a forbidden medicine from the past Imperial Palace, I will look for all the medicinal ingredients here. I never thought that it would actually have such a miraculous effect. It can even treat smallpox! " Pausing for a moment, she sighed: "You know, if others were to know about the existence of this thing, I am afraid that Xi Family and I would die, and if those people who have plotted against us were to use this thing to harm us, wouldn''t I be a criminal? "Therefore, I would not dare to show mercy unless I have no other choice but to do so." "


    What he said was right. As a doctor, he had seen too many people do countless heinous things just for a single life! Even when he saw such a good thing, he had already been driven mad, let alone those who were on the verge of death and were being tortured by illness. Even if he did everything he could think of, he would still try to get the prescription.


    "I understand what you''re saying, but what does it have to do with me?" Sun Kong Ming asked somewhat puzzled.


    "I want to borrow Elder Sun''s name to ask Senior Sun to give Jiu Er a prescription. This way, I also have an explanation that can cure those patients in the capital who are infected with smallpox. Senior Sun also has a good reputation, isn''t this the same for both sides?" Xi Jiu Er revealed her final goal.


    "It''s rare for you to have such considerations for the sake of the common people at such a young age. "Alright, I''ll write a prescription for you today." Sun Kong Ming told Xi Jiu Er to find a brush and ink, and Xi Jiu Er brought it in front of him. She thought about how she did not even have the strength to lift her hand earlier, but she could still write now ¡­ Really ¡­


    Sun Kong Ming spent a lot of effort to write a prescription to treat smallpox and gave it to Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er took a look at it and placed it in his hands. It won''t do any harm.


    "Jiu Er is here to thank Doctor Sun." Xi Jiu Er cupped her hands and gave Sun Kong Ming a huge bow. Sun Kong Ming said hurriedly: "It''s only a small matter, compared to Miss Xi this, what is it worth?"


    The two of them continued to chat for awhile before Xi Jiu Er went to open the door. Mu Qiu Shui asked him how things were going, and Xi Jiu Er nodded to indicate that she had finished. Mu Qiu Shui revealed a smile, allowing her to finally heave a sigh of relief.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked deeply into the eye contact between Xi Jiu Er and Mu Qiu Shui. For some reason, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, as if his things had been shared. He couldn''t help but reveal an expression of anger, and walked into the house without saying a word.


    In the room, Sun Kong Ming''s complexion shocked him. Feng Qing Cheng was depressed in his heart because his master was treating the common people, but he himself... Backlight... It had probably only been a few days.


    "Xiao Feng, I don''t need you to take care of me. Leave. I want to leave peacefully during the last few days of my life." Sun Kong Ming waved for Feng Qing Cheng to come over. Feng Qing Cheng shook his head: "Master, let your disciple accompany you alright?"


    "This is bad!" Sun Kong Ming''s attitude was very firm and he said stubbornly: "Follow Master''s instructions, otherwise, you won''t be willing to die. When the time comes, you can come and collect my corpse. It''ll probably only be a few days. "


    "Master!" Feng Qing Cheng opened his eyes wide: "Do you have to do this?"


    Sun Kong Ming shook his head: "Xiao Feng, I can see that you are not an ordinary person, I will not speak more about this old man''s words. Although we are only master and disciple, I have already treated you as my close relative. No matter what happens in the future, I want you to live a good life. No matter how rough the road ahead is, you must live a good life! "


    Sun Kong Ming said ''live well'' twice, Feng Qing Cheng understood and said with a choked of sobs: "Master, Xiao Feng will listen to you. Live well, and you must live well."


    "That''s good. You can go." Sun Kong Ming looked at Feng Qing Cheng with unwillingness to part. He didn''t know when he would be able to see her again, and there was an inseparable banquet in the world.


    Outside the house, Xi Jiu Er dragged Gou Dan to look for Gou Dan''s mother-in-law. Upon hearing that Xi Jiu Er was going to return to the capital, Grandma Gou Dan immediately kowtowed to him. Xi Jiu Er obediently bowed three times.


    "Miss, this is how it should be." Grandma Gou Dan giggled and warned Gou Dan repeatedly that he must be obedient in the future. After being warned by Grandma Gou Dan all sorts of sizes, Gou Dan''s posture was probably so that he would give a heartfelt salute. Xi Jiu Er immediately helped her up and said that he did not need it.


    After exchanging some pleasantries, Xi Jiu Er gave Mu Qiu Shui a glance. Mu Qiu Shui was startled and understood, he then quickly said: "Old granny, don''t worry, I will take care of the situation here, I will definitely let this old granny live a good life in a good house."


    "Haha ¡­" The old granny chuckled, "I believe in all of you."


    ex-sister-in-law who was helping Gou Dan pack his things secretly placed the silver on the table, then poured the spring water into her water jar. After the group left, Feng Qing Cheng had already disappeared without a trace.


    "Where is he?" A flustered feeling assaulted Feng Qing Cheng''s heart, which had been sleeping for many years. He looked around and saw that there was no one left! He dejectedly stood on the spot, and only when he thought about it did he remember Xi Jiu Er''s identity. Capital Xi Family... Isn''t that easy to find?


    Thinking about it this way, Feng Qing Cheng became spirited again.


    Once things were done, he would quickly rush back. Gou Dan was a little confused, he had an uneasy feeling that he was in a good carriage. The inside of the carriage was really clean, and they were also clean. If you see something fun and you don''t dare to touch it, you''ll be afraid that if you don''t pay attention to it, you''ll ruin it and make it dirty.


    Xi Jiu Er instructed the wagon driver to stop when they arrived at a place with a market. She to prepare some new clothes for Gou Dan and give him a bath as well. Gou Dan blushed, feeling extremely embarrassed.


    "Come here, come to big sister." Xi Jiu Er waved her hand. Gou Dan was a little nervous as he said embarrassedly: "Elder sister, Gou Dan is dirty ¡­."


    "It''s fine, big sister won''t find you dirty." Xi Jiu Er waved her hand and laughed, only then did Gou Dan walk in front of Xi Jiu Er and the rest. Xi Jiu Er touched his head and asked if he was tired. Gou Dan shook his head, trying to say something but kept his lips tightly shut.


    "You can tell me anything you want, treat me like your own sister!" Xi Jiu Er gave him an encouraging look. Finally, Gou Dan mustered up her courage and said, "Elder sister, let me take a look outside."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "If you want to see, then go and see." Gou Dan who had received his orders happily ran over to the side and lifted the curtain, he shouted happily as he looked at the scenery outside that was different from the one in the village.


    Xi Jiu Er was also affected by the laughter. When she suddenly thought about the man who was close to him on the skin, Xi Jiu Er could not help but feel embarrassed. It''s over, everything''s over ¡­ In the future, don''t ever meet this man again, and never think that she is Sun Kong Ming''s disciple.


    The Xi Mansion had already started preparing for the funeral for Xi Jiu Er. Since Xi Jiu Er was the direct daughter and the only granddaughter of the Wei Guogong, this funeral was going to be organized soon. When the Wei Guogong heard that the Xi Mansion was organising a funeral, he was angered to the point of jumping to her feet. This heartless Xi Family, without even finding the corpse, had already started handling funeral affairs.


    In these few days, not only did First Lady have to take care of Xi Jiu Er''s funeral, she also had to carefully investigate the movements in the palace. She didn''t know how His Majesty was doing, and she was constantly worried that there would be an official or soldier who would barge in that day and take her and her daughter away ¡­


    The First Lady''s strange Third Wife and Yan Er had already sensed it, the two of them guessed that this was what the First Lady meant, it was just that the First Lady did not expect it to actually be dragged down this time.


    When Xi Jiu Er and the rest arrived at the Xi Mansion, they saw two white lanterns hung outside of the Xi Mansion. Hearing the order, Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "This Xi Mansion is really quick, in just a few days time he took care of the funeral and we haven''t found the bones yet."

 C72

    That''s right, now that the smallpox is in full swing, they actually have the time to arrange a funeral for me. I really feel sorry for her! Xi Jiu Er let out a cold laugh as he entered the house. The Xi Mansion was currently closed, and it took a long time for Xi Jiu Er to knock on the door, but when he saw that it was opened by a ghost, he immediately retreated in fright.


    It was no wonder that this doorman was scared, countless people had died in the capital because of this smallpox, and a lot of people were said that Xi Mansion had also died, so the people who brought people out to watch the door every day were scared out of their wits. It was fortunate that he had smallpox, if not he would be scared to death.


    "Nine, Ninth Miss ¡­" When the guard saw it was Xi Jiu Er, he trembled and opened the door: "You, didn''t you die?


    ex-sister-in-law scolded: "Are you cursing Miss with your crow beak?" This time, Xi Jiu Er and the others could be considered to have experienced a life and death struggle, and even now, the ex-sister-in-law still had lingering fear in her heart.


    "Alright, he''s been scared too." Seeing his sallow face filled with fear, Xi Jiu Er didn''t need to think much to know that it was caused by the small flowers. He brought ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui into the mansion, and every place was white colored ¡­ Entering the hall with a black coffin, the faces of Xi Jiu Er and the rest immediately darkened.


    "Nine, Ninth Miss?" The servants saw Xi Jiu Er standing in the hall alive, the maidservants who passed by knocked over the washbowls in their hands with a clang. Other than those who had smallpox and were not feeling anxious, the rest of the people in Xi Mansion were all on the brink of death, and had their nerves on edge.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her indifferently: "Come over here and tell me what''s the situation in the residence."


    This maid had suffered from smallpox, so she wasn''t too afraid. In this period of time, she had suffered greatly. One person could do the work of ten people, but he still couldn''t rest. When she heard Xi Jiu Er''s question, she immediately became happy, because he could find an excuse to rest.


    Xi Jiu Er found out that other than Xi Wan Feng, Xi Rui, Old Madame, Third Wife, Yan Er and mother of joy, he had also suffered from smallpox. Xi Wu Er was also done with it ¡­ Fortunately, First Lady and Xi Hong Sheng were safe and sound until now!


    Xi Wan Rong and Xi Rui can do it? His most beloved son and daughter were both suffering from smallpox, she thought that if Xi Wan Rong died, First Lady would be fine with it. But if Xi Rui died, First Lady would probably not be far away from going crazy.


    Xi Jiu Er told the servant to inform the Third Wife and Yan Er before taking him. Old Madame, who went to look for him, found it difficult to take care of even a child alone. Most of them were taken care of by Xi Wan Feng, so he acted as a guard.


    Old Madame had a bad nap and had been having nightmares. When mother of joy heard that someone was coming in from outside, she turned her head and was immediately alarmed. "Ninth Miss is back?" Even though mother of joy''s voice was softer than a whisper, it still woke the old Madame from his stupor.


    When the old Madame opened her eyes and saw that Xi Jiu Er had immediately woken up, she asked in shock, "Is the ninth girl back?"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head and said softly, "Old Madame Jiu Er is back. Jiu Er has brought a prescription to treat smallpox." So she told the old Madame about Sun Kong Ming. The old Madame and the old mother of joy immediately had a whole new level of respect for Xi Jiu Er, for a weak and beautiful girl to actually find a famous doctor like Sun Kong Ming, and even get a cure for smallpox!


    Old Madame immediately said, "Is that so? "Then quickly go and find a servant to see if there''s any effect." She had absolute trust in Sun Kong Ming''s medical skill, so she didn''t doubt it in the slightest. Sun Kong Ming''s medical skill could be said to be a genius that only appeared once in a hundred years, and had treated many difficult illnesses.


    "Old Madame, don''t worry, Jiu Er had already asked someone to test him previously, if there are no problems, you can rest assured. I have already told ex-sister-in-law, Liu Xiang and the others to do this ¡­ " When Xi Jiu Er returned to his residence, she had already instructed the heart-nourishing hall to brew the medicine. With Liu Shui there, there shouldn''t be any problems staring at the medicine.


    "Yes, Grandmother believes in you." Old Madame believed that she wouldn''t do anything to save him, so she didn''t have the guts to do so. had them distribute the medicine to the guests and personally bring it to the old Madame. "Grandmother, drink it and the smallpox will cure you."


    On the First Lady''s side, he was still reciting Buddhist scriptures when the waiter brought two bowls of soup over. He asked, "What is this?"


    Wang Ma''s expression was very strange. He put down the soup and said, "First Lady, this is the medicinal formula for treating smallpox that Ninth Miss got from the old genius doctor Sun Kong Ming. The medicine has already been prepared and distributed to everyone in the manor."


    First Lady immediately stood up and stared at Wang Ma with her eyes wide open. In a word, she had already understood a lot, that Xi Jiu Er did not die, and that she was still alive and well. She stared at that pitch black medicine ¡­ Which one is like poison?


    "This old servant will watch as they drink. No problem ¡­" Since she brought the medicine over, then it should not be a big deal. First Lady stared at the medicine and thought, what if Xi Jiu Er did something? Then, he thought that Xi Jiu Er was really making a move on the huge Xi Mansion ¡­ How could she have the guts?


    Wang Ma continued: "I heard that Ninth Miss has already stewed the medicine for heart-nourishing hall. One copper coin for a bowl ¡­ Say you want to recoup the cost... " Wang Ma sucked in a cold breath. She had followed First Lady for so many years and was an expert at settling debts.


    Even those who didn''t have smallpox would come with a bowl, wouldn''t they? Naturally, there would also be people buying in the towns around the capital ¡­ Not only that, those who had smallpox naturally came all the way here to drink their medicine.


    First Lady''s face turned green, she bit her teeth and looked at the bowl of medicine that was almost like a bowl of blood. Xi Jiu Er was truly capable, not only did she receive such a huge benefit in exchange for silver, she could also earn a lot of money.


    "Madame, you must drink this soup for the sake of Miss Rong and Young Master Mao." Wang Ma looked at First Lady''s face, unwilling to immediately remind her of the current situation! First Lady could only unwillingly drink it in the end ¡­ How bitter, why is it as bitter as Huang Lian? In fact, Xi Jiu Er had indeed added Huang Lian!


    First Lady felt like she was going to puke out her gallbladder. Her face was wrinkled like a bun, and Wang Ma immediately went to give her that candied fruit sweet mouth. Wang Ma also gulped down a bowl, First Lady also made her eat candied fruits with a sweet mouth!


    "First Lady, with this medicine, Young Master will be safe and sound." The Wang Ma said happily. First Lady hoped that the medicine was effective, but if it was effective, Xi Jiu Er did a good deed and saved him.


    At the same time, there were people buying the medicine for treating smallpox in the heart-nourishing hall. Since the heart-nourishing hall only had these few servants working hard, it was not as if they did not even touch the ground. Xi Jiu Er had expected such a thing to happen, so she instructed Liu Shui to find those beggars who did not even have money for him. When the beggars were put down, they immediately changed after putting on the heart-nourishing hall''s clothes ¡­


    Your Mansion... This allowed the people of Xi Family to see hope, especially when this was the first time Xi Wan Rong thanked Xi Jiu Er. Hmph, she finally did something decent. She was the number one beauty in the world, while Fang Fang was only fourteen years old.


    After the third day, more and more people with smallpox had arrived. Xi Jiu Er and Mu Qiu Shui had discussed and agreed that after three days, they would let him present the medicinal formula to the Emperor. She had already earned a lot of money, if she did not withdraw now, her life would probably be in danger.


    Sun Kong Ming had already become a living genius doctor who saved lives by saving lives. After that, the imperial medicine was given to the concubines and the others in the palace by the imperial government, and they also came from Xi Jiu Er herself. There was an extremely precious medicinal herb in the pharmacy, which even the imperial palace did not have.


    That night, Xi Jiu Er already planned to rest, ex-sister-in-law brought a servant girl in, the maid looked to be around 15 or 16 years old, she was not very beautiful, at most, it could only be considered pretty, but ex-sister-in-law said that the maid''s name was Yu Er, she was the servant that Xi Wan Rong had to attend to during this period of time.


    Yu Er saluted Xi Jiu Er and her body was trembling slightly, as if sshe was afraid of something. However, that pair of eyes were extremely calm, and it was probably an act. Xi Jiu Er looked at ex-sister-in-law, and ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "When Yu Er saw how I placed the medicine in Miss Rong, he threatened me to give her a thousand taels of silver and return her indenture, if not she would have to tell First Lady about this matter, and how I said that this matter cannot be decided by me, let her come and find the young ¡ª ¡ª Sis!"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Yu Er, and said, how arrogant, a mere servant girl, a thousand gold really was a lot to talk about ¡­ Her monthly allowance was only two taels of silver a year, so she still needed her indenture contract. Xi Jiu Er sneered: "Do you think that if you were to spread the news, the First Lady will believe you?"


    Yu Er''s heart thumped wildly. She became excited: "They will, First Lady cares about Miss Rong the most, Miss Rong care about her face the most. If they knew that Ninth Miss''s face had been marked by the medicine, they won''t let you go. She didn''t believe that the Ninth Miss wouldn''t be scared.


    Yu Er was sure that Xi Jiu Er would be scared, a thousand silver was nothing to Xi Jiu Er, she had already had this plan since she found out that the ex-sister-in-law was going to drug Xi Wan Rong, and she was betting on it, believing that she would win.


    "Oh? "Then tell me, you have no proof. Who would believe you?" Xi Jiu Er smiled indifferently: "Let them deal with me, I''m not afraid at all!"

 C73

    Yu Er saw that Xi Jiu Er''s reaction was completely different from what she expected, and became anxious, "Ninth Miss, Servant knows that you didn''t want to give Yu Er any silver, so she said that. Yu Er knows that you have plenty of silver, so he doesn''t care about this thousand taels.


    "Hur hur, go and say it now. It doesn''t matter, I''m not afraid at all. I''m still waiting to watch the show." This servant''s heart was too wild, she did not have much courage to do these kinds of things, so how could she dare go to First Lady? Go find the old Madame? She didn''t dare to. If she didn''t have proof, then who would believe it? Other than suspicion and jealousy, what else could the First Lady do to her? Right now, she couldn''t afford to be careless, because an imperial edict might come from one of the heavens ¡­


    Yu Er saw that Xi Jiu Er was indeed not afraid, and immediately she had no other choice, her body also went limp as she sat on the ground. She looked at Xi Jiu Er as if she was a gambler who had lost all her savings, and was ruined.


    Xi Jiu Er looked down at Yu Er and sneered: "I hate people who threaten me the most. You, who don''t know life and death, actually dare to threaten me!"


    Yu Er trembled in fear as she looked at Xi Jiu Er. Although Xi Jiu Er had changed in the eyes of the servants, for example, she was no longer irritable, and had become more gentle and polite. She had the demeanour of a great family, able to endure any argument she had with Xi Wan Rong. Now it seemed like it was all fake! Yu Er realized this and immediately kowtowed to Xi Jiu Er: "Ninth Miss, Servant is wrong, Servant doesn''t dare to do this anymore. is the one who dared to do such a stupid thing, and will never speak of this secret again, I beg Ninth Miss, please forgive me, please forgive me."


    This maid could not be left alive. He had the guts to do so, and if he did not pay attention in the future, it would be done. She ordered ex-sister-in-law to call Liu Shui over. Yu Er sensed something and immediately kowtowed in fright: Ninth Miss, Servant deserves to die. Servant deserves to die.


    Xi Jiu Er sighed, "You shouldn''t have come to find me today."


    "Ninth Miss, this Servant wants to have a meal together. He doesn''t want to become a Servant and be ordered around by others. I beg Ninth Miss, please forgive this Servant ¡­" Ninth Miss... " No matter how Yu Er begged, Xi Jiu Er remained indifferent to it until Liu Shui arrived. She shot him a glance: "Take her away."


    "Nine ¡­" Yu Er''s words were stuck in her throat before she had even finished speaking. She looked at Xi Jiu Er in despair, hoping that she would be able to spare her in the nick of time. How could she speak when her jaw was dislocated? She could only whimper. Who could hear her in the middle of the night?


    Xi Wu Er came out in the middle of the night to take a breather without bringing a servant. Seeing that he was almost fifteen years old, he did not know how First Lady arranged for him, but he could casually find someone to marry her. Thinking that it would definitely not be good for her in the future, she was unwilling. After suffering in Xi Mansion for more than ten years, she did not want to suffer anymore.


    Perhaps she should rely on the First Lady. She had followed the rules and hoped to give the First Lady a good influence. In the future, she would be able to find a good future and marry a good family. Now it looked like he had to try harder.


    There was someone up ahead! Xi Wu Er instinctively covered his mouth and hid away when he heard a voice. "Don''t blame me.


    "Wuwuwu ¡­"


    ''Puff! ''a loud sound was heard. After a while, no sound could be heard. Xi Wu Er recognized this person, he was one of the servants by Xi Jiu Er''s side. He seemed to know some martial arts, and he looked very delicate and innocent, even younger than Xi Jiu Er. He didn''t expect her to kill so easily. A human life was gone.


    Xi Wu Er was both shocked and afraid. Although she had punished her servants, she did not dare to kill them! She slowly got up and walked outside. She did not expect to run into Xi Meng An, who was like her, a bastard who did not even have a mother, and whose life was worse than hers. When Xi Wu Er saw her, he really wanted to stop her, but Xi Meng An ran away as if she had seen a ghost. She was probably shocked.


    Xi Wu Er returned to the courtyard full of worry. Her unchanging mother was already sound asleep and she could not help but feel disgust towards this mother. The more angry Xi Wu Er became, the more he lay on the bed and tried to fall asleep ¡­ Maybe, this was the first time he had gained the First Lady''s trust, at that time, the First Lady would think of him as finding a good home.


    When she gets married, she''ll be able to live on her own abilities. Xi Wu Er made a plan after thinking about it.


    "Why is there a scar on my face? "Why?" Although it was very faint, she could still see it clearly. She was so angry that not only did she shake off a few bronze mirrors, the servants also suffered a loss as well.


    "Si Ping, go and find Yu Er for me. Is there a problem with the medicine she gave me, why would I have one when no one else has a scar?" Xi Wan Rong roared, he suspected that there was a problem with the medicine.


    Si Ping immediately went to find Yu Er, and after taking her from him, she simply could not find her. Let''s go, I''ll go take a look at mother. "


    The sky above Xi Mansion finally opened, and the Xi Family returned to its previous state. Several servants died, and one or two concubinage also died. As a result, the Xi Family became lively again. The people of the house were grateful to Xi Jiu Er, and were obviously very respectful to her.


    First Lady saw this and felt helpless. She was afraid that Xi Jiu Er would enter the palace in a few days to receive the bestowment from the emperor. At that time, he might even give her the title of a princess. When she thought of this, she felt that she needed to do something before she could reveal a message to the Mubai s in the palace.


    "mother, mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong hurried over.


    First Lady temporarily put aside the matter regarding Xi Jiu Er and laughed: "Yo, you lazybones got up so early today? It''s not normal. " As she joked around, Xi Wan Rong made her cry. She immediately asked: "What''s wrong, what''s wrong?"


    Xi Wan Rong pointed at his own face: "mother, look at my face. There are scars on my face ¡­"


    First Lady was speechless when he heard this. As expected, there was a scar on his face. If one did not look carefully, he would not be able to see it, and most importantly, Xi Wan Rong''s face could even be seen if she touched the powder. How could the number one beauty in the world have a scar?


    "mother, what should we do? What should we do?" Xi Wan Rong was close to tears, she was sobbing but did not know what to do. Just thinking about how she would want to die if she did not get rid of this scar.


    First Lady also comforted her. "Rong Er, don''t worry, mother will find you the best medicine to treat you." Xi Wan Feng''s voice came from outside. First Lady said in a low voice, "You must not tell anyone about this matter, or else if word of this spreads..."


    "Mmm mmm mmm, only the maidservants by my side know." Xi Wan Rong made up her mind. If it was necessary, she didn''t mind kill them all. Compared to the few lives left to him, her own reputation was definitely the most important.


    She covered her nose and mouth with a handkerchief and pretended to cough. When Xi Wan Feng came in, he heard her coughing and asked: "Is little sister sick?"


    First Lady replied indifferently: "It''s nothing, it''s just that my throat isn''t good. I''ll be fine after a while." Xi Wan Feng, mother and daughter, who had been in the job for more than ten years, knew that something was up.


    "Sister, you need to take good care of yourself." Xi Wan Feng asked with concern.


    "Got it." Xi Wan Rong said impatiently, she was furious. After a while, Xi Jiu Er came too, seeing that Xi Wan Rong had covered half of his face with his hands, he knew that the medicine had taken effect, and laughed: "Why is Elder Sister Rong covering his face, are you still not letting people see?"


    "Who cares? What does it have to do with you?" Xi Wan Feng could not hold it in anymore. No matter what methods First Lady used, she was still so irritable that she could not change it at all. This gave First Lady a huge headache.


    "I was just asking." Xi Jiu Er didn''t say anything, instead, she asked her how she had found Sun Kong Ming. Xi Jiu Er took out an excuse she had thought of long ago to deal with it, and then brought it up to Mu Qiu Shui.


    "Prince Xian and I met by chance. Prince Xian saw that we were both women and escorted us because we weren''t safe on the way, he said that we could use it to sightsee." Xi Jiu Er said.


    Wanting to sightsee? This was because of Prince Xian''s personality. First Lady saw the fire in his daughter''s eyes, what virtue did Prince Xian have? How could such an irresponsible man be a good husband? She would never let Xi Wan Rong have any contact with the Prince Xian.


    Xi Wan Rong felt that it was boring and decided to leave. Since he had already achieved his goal, she wanted to bring up Mu Qiu Shui in front of the First Lady, since Xi Wan Rong had a problem when he was young. As long as he thought of it, he would think of a way to get his hands on her. The more First Lady disapproved of her being with Mu Qiu Shui, the more she wanted to be together.


    But today, she had met Xi Wu Er who had come to pay his respects. The First Lady would ask the concubinage to pay her respects on specific days, and although she looked virtuous and virtuous on the outside, in reality, she did not want to see these bastards with their daughters. She felt extremely annoyed just by looking at them.


    If it wasn''t for the days yet, why was she here? Xi Jiu Er saw that her eyes were looking at him without leaving a trace. Xi Jiu Er''s intuition told him that it was probably related to him. She then sat back down.


    Once First Lady saw that Xi Wu Er did not come to pay respects today, he could not help but scrunch his face, and said to Xi Wu Er indifferently: "Get up."


    Xi Wu Er stood up and stood obediently at the side. Without the First Lady''s instructions, she would not be able to sit in a place like this concubinage. This kind of concubinage was different from the direct daughter. Their fates were already decided long ago, as long as you don''t treat them like their reputation after marrying into a concubine or rejuvenating their family, then it would be fine. They wouldn''t need to think too much about it.


    "mother, your daughter wishes to tell you something, and hopes that you can let the servants in the house leave." Xi Wu Er mustered up his courage and looked towards First Lady, everyone looked at her, but she was still as gentle and gentle as ever, with a timid expression.

 C74

    First Lady''s expression froze, other than the servants from Wang Ma who were by his side, Xi Jiu Er used the time while drinking tea to think about what was going on, and guessed that it was related to him!


    Xi Wu Er took a deep breath and said to First Lady: "mother, the servant that served Elder Sister Rong, Yu Er, is dead ¡­ "She died in a dry well not far from my courtyard."


    "What?" "He''s dead?" Xi Wan Rong immediately choked, she was even saying that she was going to settle the score.


    This was how simple it was to never meet again, the crux of Xi Wu Er''s words was still far off, Xi Wan Feng and First Lady thought the same! ''s eyelids twitched. Seems like Liu Shui saw Liu Shui''s actions last night, Liu Shui was not a sloppy person, and since there were people watching her, how could she not notice? Or did Xi Wu Er hide it too stealthily?


    First Lady calmly asked: "It''s just a servant who died, is there anything shameful about it?"


    Xi Wu Er secretly took a deep breath, her actions today would make her stand, she could neither retreat nor retreat. Therefore, he nodded his head: "mother has guessed correctly, Yu Er''s death involved a secret, because she knew a secret, she was killed by someone!"


    "What secret?" Xi Wan Rong told himself that this secret had a lot to do with him.


    Xi Wan Feng could not help but give Xi Wu Er another glance. Normally, she would not interact with these concubinage s, and she did not want to interact with them. Looking at her dancing sister today didn''t seem like the person she remembered.


    "It''s about the face of the Elder Sister Rong." Xi Wu Er looked at Xi Wan Rong, and said steadily.


    What? First Lady immediately became serious and sat up straight. Xi Wan Rong immediately became impatient: "Speak, did someone do something to my face? "Isn''t it?" She swept a glance at Xi Jiu Er; She always remembered that.


    Xi Jiu Er said innocently, "Elder Sister Rong, what are you looking at me for? Don''t tell me you think I did it."


    "Hmph, better not." Xi Wan Rong said in a cold voice: "Speak, tell me everything you know, I want to see what kind of slut dares to harm my face, I will definitely skin and cramp her to death." Her beautiful face was filled with twisted fury. This face was her everything, so it was no wonder that she viewed it with such importance.


    Xi Wu Er pursed his lips and said: "Last night, my daughter didn''t sleep very well, so she wanted to go out for a walk. Unknowingly, she came to a nearby dry well in the courtyard. At this time, his daughter heard someone say, "Don''t blame me, if you want to blame something, blame yourself for spoiling Ninth Miss''s good fortune." That person is big sister Jiu Er''s servant, Liu Shui. "


    Bang! Xi Wan Rong immediately stood up and rushed in front of Xi Jiu Er without saying a word. From the looks of it, he wanted to give her a slap.


    "You''re the one who harmed me, it''s you!" Xi Wan Rong wanted to fight to the death with Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er abruptly shook him off: "Hmph, you believed in her just by hearing her words?"


    "If it''s not you, then who else could it be? You''re the one who wants me to disfigure myself the most." Xi Wan Rong said with certainty, she did not seem to doubt him at all as she stared at Xi Jiu Er fiercely, looking at her fair and smooth skin, she was just jealous, mad with jealousy that was even better than a baby''s.


    "Everyone who is jealous of your beauty wants you disfigured." Xi Jiu Er said coldly: Sister Wu, I have never had any grievances with you, why are you slandering me?


    Xi Wu Er only looked at First Lady and said, "mother, everything that daughter says is true."


    "Xi Jiu Er, what else do you have to say for yourself?" Xi Wan Rong wanted to slap him yet again, but was stopped by First Lady who said: "Stop, mother will naturally seek justice for you."


    Xi Wan Rong stomped his feet and looked at Xi Jiu Er fiercely. Xi Jiu Er then looked at Xi Wu Er: Sister Wu, you said that you have no proof and you said that I killed Yu Er?


    "Did I see it with my own eyes?" Xi Wu Er said aggressively: "It must be that Yu Er found something so we can kill him to keep our mouth shut!" This kind of Xi Wu Er no longer had her usual obedient and obedient appearance. In order to gain First Lady''s recognition, she had already removed her disguise.


    "You saw it with your own eyes? If I really wanted to kill Yu Er, I would not use this method. I want to kill him in broad daylight, how am I going to act like I''m sneaking around behind her back? Besides, it''s already dark. Can you tell who it is? What could a voice say? You have never been out of the mansion, so you wouldn''t know that there''s a kind of person out there who knows how to talk. You would be able to tacitly accept others'' words. If you just said that I killed him, I would have said that it was done by the Big Sister Feng. I saw it with my own eyes. " Xi Jiu Er described several hypotheses in a row, making everyone present confused. Xi Wan Feng who suddenly called out his name had a baffled look: "Why do I have to be involved!"


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Big Sister Feng, don''t mind me, I am just making an analogy. This Sister Wu didn''t even have the evidence to fabricate the story of me killing Yu Er, and said that I caused the people of the Elder Sister Rong to become angry just by listening to my story.


    Xi Wu Er''s face turned ashen, she did not expect Xi Jiu Er to be so eloquent, she had thought that if she were to speak of this matter, at least she would be able to see Xi Jiu Er panic, with First Lady''s intelligence, there would definitely be some clues, but unfortunately, Xi Jiu Er remained calm and collected.


    "Sister Jiu Er wants evidence, alright, I have a witness." Xi Wu Er suddenly laughed strangely, she had a victorious look on her face, causing everyone in the room to stare at Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Alright, take out the evidence, I believe that mother has been in control of the family for so many years, so naturally you have the ability to judge others."


    Xi Wu Er glanced at First Lady, and confessed to Xi Meng An. How could Xi Meng An and Xi Wan Feng still have an impression of each other? Hearing this name, Xi Wan Feng guessed that it was their concubine sister. But First Lady remembered to ask Wang Ma to bring Xi Meng An back personally.


    Silence returned to the room as First Lady turned to look at Xi Wu Er. The Xi Wu Er today was completely different from the one she had seen before, it was as if they were two different people. She had yet to determine who was the culprit behind Rong Er''s actions. Both of them were suspected, but the most suspicious person was Xi Wu Er.


    Yu Er had also chosen from the old Madame to serve Xi Wan Rong. If Xi Jiu Er was still disfigured by Rong Er at this time, the most likely suspect would be her, she wouldn''t be so stupid as to do such a thing. On the contrary, Xi Wu Er''s actions today were somewhat puzzling, as a sudden secret, had suddenly changed ¡­ First Lady had no choice but to adapt to everything.


    However, Xi Jiu Er understood it well. In his previous life, he had added that during her entire life, she had gotten quite a bit more familiar with the nature of First Lady. Sometimes, the more you told her the truth, the more she didn''t believe you at all, but the more you told her that the fake she actually believed it at all.


    Before long, Wang Ma arrived with Xi Meng An. A frail and weak girl dressed up like a servant, she did not look like the Miss at all, Xi Wan Rong frowned in disgust, even Xi Wan Feng did not look towards that direction, but the First Lady frowned in reproach, as though he was blaming Xi Meng An for not dressing up.


    Only Xi Jiu Er looked at Xi Meng An''s expression with sympathy! Although Xi Meng An was a Miss, she could tell from one look that her days were worse than maids'', and that she had been bullied quite a bit.


    She shook her shoulders and lowered her head in fear. Xi Wu Er said softly, "Seventh Sister, did you hear someone say ''don''t blame me for what happened to Ninth Miss last night?''. "That sentence?"


    "I... "I ¡­" Xi Meng An trembled in fear. "I, I don''t know what Sister Wu is saying ¡­"


    "You, I clearly saw you by that dried up well last night, and you ran away the moment you saw me. Do you dare to say that you didn''t hear me?" Xi Wu Er panicked.


    Xi Meng An was even more frightened now and started crying, "Sister Wu, I don''t know what you''re talking about ¡­ "Sob, sob ¡­"


    "You, you!" Xi Wu Er looked at Xi Jiu Er, who was crying in fear, and said: "Did you two collude with each other! mother, they were colluding together, daughter really heard it last night. "


    "Everyone says that hearing and seeing are two different things. They say that seeing is believing, and hearing is believing. I don''t know who''s seeing that I''ve been doing well lately, but they intend to make me feel uncomfortable." Xi Jiu Er said indistinctly, and did not specifically say who gave rise to the thoughts of everyone present. Maybe it was really because of their popularity!


    "mother, Jiu Er definitely has never done this before. If mother does not believe me, you can go and investigate. Xi Jiu Er''s cold smile indicated that she did not know what to do next. Everything had already exceeded her expectations, and she stared at Xi Meng An resentfully. If she were to admit to what had happened, then things would be much easier.


    "Alright!" First Lady shouted, "Look at what the both of you are like." She would love to see them pinch each other, of course, but she did not want it to have anything to do with her daughter.


    "mother, don''t listen to Little Sister Jiu Er''s nonsense. This matter wasn''t done by her daughter. After all, she had never seen the world, and thought that she could control this matter. However, in the end, all of her efforts were for naught, and she faintly regretted acting rashly without proper consideration.


    "mother, your daughter had already discovered that there are scars on Elder Sister Rong''s face, so she specially found a prescription to treat Elder Sister Rong. The doctor promised your daughter that as long as you use it, there won''t be any scars on your face!" Xi Jiu Er changed the topic and attracted attention. Xi Wan Rong opened his eyes wide and asked: "Are you that kind?"


    "If Elder Sister Rong doesn''t believe my sister, my sister will have no other choice ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: At most, when the medicine is ready, let me have a drink with Elder Sister Rong.


    First Lady actually thought that Xi Jiu Er would have good intentions here? She didn''t have any reason to help Xi Wan Rong, since she said that they were sisters but it might be a lie ¡­ There were many things that the First Lady s could not understand, little by little. It was also not clear as to what this girl''s goal was. Since she said that, First Lady then said: "Since Jiu Er has said that, then let''s do it your way."


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes and sneered, hehe, when the time comes, she wanted to see just how wonderful her face was!


    At night, the First Lady asked with a dark expression: "You really saw it clearly, was it the people killed by Xi Jiu Er''s servant?"


    "Daughter is absolutely sure." Xi Wu Er had already boarded the boat that belonged to the First Lady. There was no way out, he could only follow the First Lady.


    "I understand. You can leave now, you''re my daughter too. In the future, I''ll find you a good wife. It''ll depend on your performance ¡­" How could Xi Wu Er not understand his intentions? Giving Xi Wu Er a promise then letting him go.


    "mother, this might not be done by Xi Jiu Er ¡­ "If she really did it, then why did she look for some medicine ¡­"


    Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips, "It doesn''t matter if it was made by her or not, if only that medicine could be used ¡­" Compared to those other questions, this was the one that Xi Wan Rong was most concerned about.


    "¡­"


    "¡­"


    Three days later, the skin on his face had turned watery after drinking the medicine. The scars had also disappeared, and he had regained his confidence.

    Third Wife met with a matter today because of a dispute between two servants. The infuriating Ping Zi said that the other party had stolen his five taels of silver, and Hai Yang did not admit that the more the two argued, the more intense their fight became.


    The two of them almost reached Third Wife. Third Wife frowned on the side: "Are you guys courting death? If anything happens to the Madame and the child in your womb, even if you die a hundred times, you won''t be able to afford it. "


    The crowd immediately panicked and said, "This servant knows his wrongs, this servant knows his wrongs."


    However, Pingzi kneeled in front of Third Wife and kowtowed, "Third Wife, I beg you to be the judge for this servant. This servant only had five taels of silver saved up and was stolen away by this sea. Woo woo ¡­ * Third Wife, you have only saved these five silver taels for a long time.


    Hai Yang also knelt down and said, "Third Wife, your servant was wrongly accused. Your servant did not steal his money. He was the one who slandered your servant."


    "Hai Yang, do you dare to say that you didn''t steal anything? If you didn''t, then you would''ve been struck by lightning and died a horrible death!" Pingzi''s eyes turned red. He wanted to swear an oath to the sea. Hai Yang''s eyes flashed. She stretched her neck and said, "Hmph, I didn''t steal it anyway. Do you believe me or not?"


    When Third Wife saw Hai Yang''s expression, it was obvious that she was afraid of being a thief. Since she had encountered this, she had to take care of it. This Hai Shui was too greedy. She said, "How do you know that the sea has something for you?"


    "Under my five taels of silver was a ''flat'' character. That day, when I lost my silver, I saw that Hai Yang was holding the silver in his hand, so I pretended to look at it and it was mine. If Hai Yang didn''t give it to me, he said that he had saved it for himself, and I said I had proof." Third Wife... "You must uphold justice for this servant. This servant will even be willing to become your wife in the future if I am willing to do anything for you."


    Seeing how Pingzi''s nose was covered in tears, Third Wife''s face darkened, "Hai Shui, admit to it now, did you take Pingzi''s silver? If you give it to me, this matter will be resolved." Pausing for a moment, he continued, "If you don''t hand it over honestly, then I''ll find out that you''re eating a meal."


    Hai Yang thought about it for a while and felt that five taels of silver was still not worth it. At most, he could just buy some ointment to mop it up and recuperate for a few days, and five taels of silver would have to be stored for at least half a year.


    "Third Wife, your servant did not take the five taels of silver from you." Hai Yang pursed her lips and insisted on not taking it.


    "Third Wife, he''s lying. He was the one who stole it. I don''t believe that Third Wife can investigate it. Pingzi was anxious. Obviously, he was on the verge of tears. That look really made Sauna unable to bear it. Mother Fang was very good in this area. She found a bag filled with gold and silver pieces, and Mother Fan estimated that it should be around two hundred silver pieces.


    "How did you get here?" "How can a mere errand boy have so much silver?" Third Wife asked.


    Hai Yang was a little surprised. She didn''t expect that someone had found out about her hiding place. He gritted his teeth and said that this was money he had earned from going to the casino.


    Third Wife and Mother Fang''s expressions changed, and there was a rule in the Xi Family family that forbade servants from gambling. She stared at him: "Xi Family''s rules forbid gambling, and you actually gamble?"


    Hai Yang didn''t feel that the family rules were important at all. He indifferently said, "Third Wife, other than me, there are a lot of other people gambling. Not only me, there are also a lot of other people."


    "Is that so?" Third Wife''s eyes slightly narrowed, and he suddenly turned his head and shouted, "Alright, Mother Fang, arrest him and send him to First Lady to deal with things that are detrimental to Xi Family''s reputation, you must not be sloppy."


    "Three, Third Wife ¡­" Hai Yang immediately jumped in fright, "This, this is such a big matter, there''s no need to alarm the First Lady right ¡­" When the surrounding people heard this, they were all shocked, while Ping was so happy that he wanted to be beaten half to death.


    "How big is it?" Third Wife laughed: "Is that so? Just say these words to First Lady. "


    How could Mother Fang understand what she meant? She immediately said, "Madame, why don''t we send him to him? What if she runs away?" He ran away? The servants here had all signed the indenture contract, and the indenture contract was all in the hands of their masters, so they didn''t even have the chance to run out the door.


    "Alright, I''ll listen to Mother Fang." Third Wife replied.


    "Three, Third Wife, this servant is wrong. This servant will not dare to gamble anymore, just go around this little one. This little one doesn''t dare anymore, never again." Hai Yang didn''t expect the Third Wife to bring him to the First Lady in earnest. He wasn''t a wooden person either, so how could he eat anything good when he went to the First Lady?


    "Did you steal Pingzi''s five taels of silver?"


    Hai hai thought that maybe if he admitted it himself, Third Wife would not bring him to answer people, so he hurriedly said: "If I reply to Third Wife, this servant stole it. This servant was momentarily befuddled and did this kind of thing, then Third Wife spared this little one, this little one swears that I won''t do it again, I won''t do it again."


    "Then why don''t you return the silver back to Pingzi."


    "Yes, yes. This servant will return the five taels of silver to Ping Zi." Hai Yang hurriedly took out five taels of silver and gave it to Da Ping. Da Ping happily received it and finally heaved a sigh of relief.


    Who knew that Third Wife would never dare to do it again, never daring to follow him to the First Lady. This caused Hai Yang to almost faint, and she couldn''t stop begging, "Third Wife, this servant begs you to spare Servant, I don''t dare to do it again, I don''t dare to do it again ¡­"


    Third Wife did not stop her from talking. Even if she wanted to let the servants know about the matters of the sea, at that time, First Lady would not be able to hide it even if she wanted to. Listening to how the sea was still blaring made Third Wife extremely happy, she wanted this kind of effect!


    Third Wife intentionally passed by the old Madame''s courtyard, which could be considered as her lucky encounter with him. mother of joy walked up to him in surprise: "This old servant greets Third Wife, Third Wife, you are ¡­"


    "This person went to the gambling house to gamble and even said that he was alone and that there were many other people gambling. I just thought that First Lady was the one in charge of the household''s matters and handed him over to First Lady for punishment."


    Gambling? mother of joy''s face did not look too good, she nodded and said: Then I will not disturb you, I still need to get the medicine for Old Madame!


    "Did the old Madame get another headache?" Third Wife asked with concern.


    mother of joy sighed, "Isn''t that so? In the past, the medicine was still effective. But now, the medicine was no longer effective, causing him to feel pain from time to time. Forget about the Third Wife, the medicine will get cold in a while. "


    "Yes." The Third Wife laughed.


    The Ninth Miss had that miraculous medicine. Why didn''t she give it to the old Madame? Maybe it was also because of the past. The Third Wife thought to himself as he brought Hai Yang to find the First Lady.


    She searched for famous doctors to be helpless against the scars on Xi Wan Rong''s face. In the end, she found a doctor who looked like a reliable doctor whose medicine was indeed effective, but unfortunately, there were more and more scars on his face. She was also burning with anxiety when she found Xi Wan Rong who was angry inside the house all day.


    Even if he asked Xi Jiu Er for a lot of herbs, it would be useless. The First Lady had a headache. Wang Ma consoled them by saying that Third Wife had brought a servant here, that the servant had won money from gambling, and that other than him, there were many others like that too. First Lady was the leader, so he should let First Lady know about this matter, and let First Lady handle it.


    First Lady was extremely anxious, he shouted angrily: "Lock him up first, I will interrogate him tomorrow."


    "Yes." The people below said.


    When the Third Wife heard that they were going to lock them up, she vaguely heard the angry voice of the First Lady. She left in a very good mood, how could she not be happy? The most important thing was to piss off First Lady.


    This mother of joy returned to the Old Madame''s courtyard. After serving the Old Madame drank all the medicine and mentioned the matter of gambling in the ocean, the Old Madame frowned: "Really?"


    "This old servant has occasionally heard people below talking about it, it seems that more than one person was gambling, later on this old servant asked a servant girl to pass on a message to the First Lady, and thought that the First Lady would punish the old servant but did not dare to interfere. I had thought that this matter was understood, but who would have thought that there would be people from the gambling house who would be able to win money. " mother of joy said.


    The old Madame muttered to herself for a moment before saying indifferently, "Go over and take a look, keep an eye on him."


    "Yes."


    "Give her the medicine that she gave me as well. I''ve heard that she has a headache recently because of the little girl." When Old Madame Xi Wan Rong was mentioned, she felt a little sad. Such a good face had been ruined.


    If she had to blame someone, it would be her own fault. She had to stop picking around. Now that she had recovered, her face was full of holes. Who else could she blame?


    "Yes, this old servant will go now." mother of joy nodded and brought the medicine with her to the courtyard of First Lady. After she finished firing, she was lying down, but upon hearing that the mother of joy had come, she was startled.


    "mother of joy." First Lady said tiredly, forcing out a smile.


    "Such a pity, First Lady, what happened to you?" mother of joy put down the medicine in her heart and sat down as she looked at First Lady, speaking sincerely: "What''s wrong with you, Old Madame has to be careful of your own body. Old Madame heard that because of Miss Rong''s matter, you couldn''t sleep or eat well, and had a headache, so he specially sent this package over to First Lady.


    "Thank you, Old Madame, for thinking about me." First Lady''s face was full of gratitude, but he thought that if he could just send Yao Lao to, he could just send a maid over, why would he even need mother of joy to come over? This time, he probably wasn''t here just to give her the medicinal herbs.

    Although the Young Master Xue didn''t have much of a climate,he was still the empress dowager''s precious nephew. With the empress dowager''s backing, no matter what, she was still the target of many young girls rushing forward to get married! First, Xi Jiu Er had not only married the empress dowager''s nephew, he had also brought glory to his family, and secondly, had paved the way for his two daughters. In the future, if any of his two daughters were to become empress, they would both be honored, and could mutually support and support each other. Thinking about it, Xi Hong Sheng agreed to First Lady''s arrangement.


    Only then did First Lady heave a sigh of relief, if by any chance Xi Hong Sheng didn''t agree to her request, she wouldn''t be able to walk down this road. Without Xi Hong Sheng''s support, she would probably be filled with anger at Wei Guogong''s place.


    But Xi Jiu Er was not the Xi Jiu Er of the past. She was now someone that the empress dowager and the emperor valued highly. Mubai had told her that if it weren''t for Wei Guogong stopping her, Xi Jiu Er would be awarded with rewards for such a great contribution. Princess, if it really was you, Princess, how would she be able to pinch Xi Jiu Er in the future? Fortunately, it didn''t succeed.


    Once Xi Hong Sheng agreed to send the message to the Mubai, the Mubai would immediately send it to him. The Mubai''s plan was to let the Young Master Xue tempt Xi Jiu Er first, and once the Young Master Xue himself asked the empress dowager to marry Xi Jiu Er, the empress dowager would definitely agree to his request if she liked her only nephew so much.


    Therefore, Xi Hong Sheng met the Young Master Xue by chance and invited him to the Palace as a guest. These two people who had absolutely nothing to do with each other had gathered together, causing Xi Jiu Er to be extremely surprised. Both of them said that they were abnormal and had to be demons, but he didn''t know what kind of strange things were being emitted from them.


    "Maybe it was really a coincidence ¡­" The ex-sister-in-law guessed. Xi Jiu Er also thought that she was overthinking it, maybe it was just a coincidence, but she had a strange feeling in her heart.


    was the happiest: "Don''t worry, mother, I will definitely think of a way to make things easier for both of you." Hehe, she knew that Young Master Xue, the heart of a beast with a human''s face, was no longer a secret. If Xi Jiu Er married him, hehe, he would probably be miserable for the rest of his life.


    "mother, what if Xi Jiu Er doesn''t listen? "You know she''s not the same as before ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was even more rational than Xi Wan Rong. What kind of head did the Young Master Xue have that they did not even know? Xi Jiu Er was not stupid to this extent.


    First Lady laughed coldly: "Don''t worry, I can use it when necessary. Mubai has given me a lot of pills and will be of great use at critical moments."


    The three of them came to the conclusion that they already had a preliminary plan. In a few days, it would be the anniversary of Old Master Xi''s death. This was the best time to make a move.


    The Young Master Xue had already vented his anger with the Mubai, so his goal was to capture Xi Jiu Er. Thus, he requested that they should temporarily stay in the palace for a few days, which First Lady gave him indicated where Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard was, her usual preferences and so on.


    One day, Xi Jiu Er just returned from the outside and she saw Young Master Xue. Young Master Xue stopped him in his tracks with a "Aiya!": "Is this Miss your Palace''s Jiu Er?" A pair of eyes was still unsettled as they looked over Xi Jiu Er''s body. It looked like she was very presumptuous.


    "Exactly." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. As long as Young Master Xue did not provoke his, she would treat his as a passerby. However, if he did provoke his, she would not be courteous at all, even though Young Master Xue was the empress dowager''s nephew.


    "Wow, I never thought that Miss would actually have a more beautiful appearance than the number one beauty in the world. Young Master Xue used his usual ability to fool Miss. Any girl who was praised like this would definitely be overjoyed.


    Xi Jiu Er almost vomited. Although this disgusting man in front of him looked like a human, her thoughts were probably dirty and dirty. Did she think she was a little girl? Xi Jiu Er''s intention was to ridicule the little girl, and when she coincidentally saw Xi Wan Rong coming over, she immediately raised her voice: "You just said that I am more beautiful than the number one beauty in the world, is that true?"


    "It''s true, of course it''s true! The number one beauty of the Prince is nothing compared to what I have seen before, her looks are just mediocre and mediocre, unlike our Miss Xi Jiu Er, with her picturesque facial features and cherry lips, her skin looks so fragile that it can''t even be broken!" Young Master Xue used all his might to praise Xi Jiu Er, and not to mention looking at him in such detail, Xi Jiu Er''s five senses were extremely unique, and their combined together was extremely pleasant to look at, not inferior to Xi Wan Rong at all.


    Xi Jiu Er took a peek, and the face of the ''number one beauty in the world'' had already become a ''Number One Under Heaven''s face distortion'', and flames started to appear in her eyes. She pretended not to see Xi Wan Rong, and only muttered softly, "Young Master Xue says so because of me, but I am not allowed to speak nonsense in the future.


    "Why is she so angry? What I said was the truth." To be fair, Xi Wan Rong was indeed as beautiful as a fairy, but to someone like the Young Master Xue, who would only feel numb towards beautiful women, Xi Wan Rong''s beauty was already nothing much.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips into a smile and ran off while covering her face. To outsiders, it might seem like an apology. Young Master Xue laughed. What, he was just like the other girls, with just a few sweet words, he would be fine.


    Young Master Xue opened his fan that had the word ''Feng Liu'' written on it and laughed complacently. When he turned around, he immediately saw Xi Wan Rong''s black face staring at him, and he immediately knew that she must have listened to his words, and immediately apologized: "My dear young mistress, I was just joking just now, you shouldn''t take it too seriously, everything is fake. I was just bullshitting her, what kind of rubbish is she, it''s not even worth mentioning. I, didn''t I do this to lure her into my trap? "


    Xi Wan Rong coldly snorted. She knew that Young Master Xue was just saying these words to make Xi Jiu Er happy, but hearing them made it unbearable for her. "Don''t say such words in the future.


    "Yes, yes!" Young Master Xue immediately begged for mercy.


    , who was in the distance, looked at the two of them thoughtfully. There was something strange, there must be something strange. Back then, when Yun Qing Ran said that she wasn''t worthy of the title of number one beauty, the two of them almost fought over it ¡­


    "This Young Master Xue is so disgusting." ex-sister-in-law said in disgust.


    "Let''s go." Xi Jiu Er brought ex-sister-in-law back to the courtyard. Just as she sat down, the Young Master Xue ran over eagerly. She was startled: They came rather quickly, and felt like the weasel had bad intentions towards the chicken during the new year.


    "Ninth Miss, Ninth Miss." Young Master Xue shouted from outside the house, Liu Xiang said: "Our Miss''s body has already rested, if you want to find our Miss, then come back another day."


    "..." "Fine!" It was the unwilling voice of the Young Master Xue.


    After Liu Xiang entered the house, the ex-sister-in-law praised him. Liu Xiang said: "Miss has yet to leave the pavilion, how can I be alone with a man? If word spreads out, I''m afraid we''ll be criticized.


    First Lady was not that easy to deal with. When she went to the southern shore of the Huai River to find old mister Sun Kong Ming, she was probably the one who found someone to assassinate the Miss. It was just that she did not expect that there would be no evidence at the end.


    Xi Jiu Er and ex-sister-in-law looked at each other, both of them were moved, could this be what First Lady was talking about? The only people with good looks in this mansion were her two children. Everything was fine, why did they have to be so diligent towards her? If you don''t have anything to offer, then you''re a thief.


    "I''m afraid that this time, this Young Master Xue is going to do something to me." Xi Jiu Er frowned. She immediately said. "This First Lady is really insidious."


    "In short, let the matter be as it should be, and do not alert the enemy, and see what methods the First Lady has up his sleeve." Xi Jiu Er instructed. She saw Liu Xiang repeatedly tell her to stay away from the Young Master Xue and to stay as far away as possible when she saw him. Liu Xiang was not as smart as the ex-sister-in-law, nor did she have much skill, so if she were to meet the Young Master Xue, the one who would suffer the most would be her.


    "Miss doesn''t need to say that he will stay far away from him." Liu Xiang nodded her head. Young Master Xue could tell at a glance that this was not some good stuff.


    After about an hour, Young Master Xue came back to ask Xi Jiu Er if he had woken up. He said that he had brought her favorite pastries for Xi Jiu Er and hoped that she would like it. However, Liu Xiang said: "Our Miss does not like this pastry and likes the cinnamon cake s. Especially the famous cinnamon cake s of the southeastern shop, we like to eat them the most."


    Pfft, Xi Jiu Er was overjoyed, the shop that Liu Xiang was talking about could be said to be worth a thousand gold! Outside the house, the Young Master Xue did not lack money. He immediately said, "So this is the pastry that Ninth Miss likes to eat. Why didn''t you say so earlier?


    Once they left, Liu Xiang lifted the curtain and pouted: "Miss, this person is obviously trying to please you. Servant doesn''t understand why he is trying to please you."


    "Yeah, why is he trying to please me? What was there to please him about? Before we know exactly what his purpose is, let''s just wait and see. " Perhaps she could go and find Xi Wan Rong. If First Lady had some goal, she could probably know a little, but someone like her could not hide her secret.


    The Young Master Xue was faster, and bought the cinnamon cake in a moment. Xi Jiu Er held the cinnamon cake''s face with a face full of ''gratitude'', which was exactly what he wanted to see. With a swish, she opened her fan and laughed in a graceful manner: "It''s good that Ninth Miss likes it."


    "Young Master Xue, you''re really great." However, he felt it was funny seeing Young Master Xue''s smug face. When Young Master Xue left, she immediately brought some pastries to find Xi Wan Rong, so he naturally had to share such delicious pastries with Xi Wan Rong. It would be such a waste!

 C77

    Xi Wan Rong was currently sleeping happily, when he heard the servant say that Xi Jiu Er was looking for him, she already had a bellyful of fire, a good Tian''er was not enough for him to sleep in, but thinking of the plan, she got up, from the maid''s attitude, she scolded Xi Wan Rong to a female pig in her heart. She was still sleeping at this hour, aren''t you afraid of dying?


    Xi Wan Rong lazily invited Xi Jiu Er to sit down: "Why are you looking for me!"


    "It''s nothing, Young Master Xue bought me a cinnamon cake, if you like it, I''ll give it to you to eat." The cinnamon cake at this place was her favorite, it was a pity that he could only have it for a while or two every month. Xi Wan Rong did not expect that Young Master Xue would be so generous and buy so many things for a little bitch like Xi Jiu Er in one go.


    Xi Wan Rong knew that the Young Master Xue was putting on an act, but he was still very uncomfortable in his heart. She snorted coldly: "What are you making me this time, that I''ll give this to you as a gift?"


    "Hur hur, I''ll let him buy it for you tomorrow." As long as Xi Wan Rong got angry the more information she would get, and as a result, after provoking Xi Wan Rong and letting her reveal it, other than the fact that she and Xi Wan Rong had a deep sisterly relationship in front of outsiders, they both revealed their true feelings for each other in private.


    Xi Wan Rong scoffed, secretly thinking to himself, what''s the point of being pleased, do you think that he was sincerely trying to please you, and was only putting on an act, and did you think that you were too popular. Seeing his beloved cake, Xi Wan Rong really did not want to reject it, she only let out a cold snort.


    "Young Master Xue is such a good person. He even said that he would buy me some embroidery. Although I don''t lack this bit of silver, intentions are still the most important." Xi Jiu Er''s words carried a little complacency, and Xi Wan Rong made a few sounds of ridicule. Yes, she, Xi Jiu Er had the money now, so she was extremely jealous! In the future, everything that the Wei Guogong had was going to be Xi Jiu Er this bitch. There were also those few valuable shops ¡­ Thinking of all these, how could Xi Wan Rong not be jealous? Silver was equally important to women, and the amount of dowry would affect her status in the husband''s family.


    Xi Wan Rong saw Xi Jiu Er''s complacent look that seemed to be showing off to her, and she could not sit still, and blurted out: "You think he is sincere, she is only deceiving you and using you?"


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, her eyes opened wide in disbelief: "I know that we normally do not like each other, but we are sisters after all. Is it because Young Master Xue said that I look better than you that you''re jealous? "


    "Ha! I''m jealous of you?" Why should I be jealous of you if you don''t look at yourself in the mirror? "Hmph, he''s just saying that casually. Do you really think he likes you? Pah, just that he wants to marry you ¡­" Suddenly, Xi Wan Rong stopped talking. Crap, she accidentally leaked it out.


    Xi Jiu Er had already heard the news that she wanted to hear and was immediately angered. "Xi Wan Rong, you think you''re the number one beauty in the world? Yun Qing Ran is even more beautiful than you, and those female Miss s are all more beautiful than you as well. Heh, Liu Xiang, let''s go!


    Xi Jiu Er who was so angry that she left did not seem to realise it, Xi Wan Rong touching her chest really gave her a fright, hmph, you slut, just be proud, let''s see how long you can continue being proud! When the time comes, you and the Young Master Xue will have an affair, you can marry him and live a life where people don''t think you''re expensive, hahaha ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er repeatedly thought about what Xi Wan Rong had said. Could it be that their goal was to get the Young Master Xue to take him? Thinking about this possibility, the First Lady hated him the most. If he were to marry a scumbag like the Young Master Xue, he would probably be ruined for the rest of his life. The Young Master Xue was famous in the circle for acting like a dog. As long as he truly cared for his daughter, the mother would definitely not marry him.


    "Miss, could it be true? First Lady wants to marry you to Young Master Xue?" Liu Xiang felt that it was extremely terrifying just thinking about it.


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er immediately understood, not only did First Lady give her to Young Master Xue to let him have a good time, she could also torture him to death with her. To Young Master Xue, what he liked was the support behind him, it didn''t matter if he liked her or not, there would be a concubinage anyways.


    When they returned back to the courtyard, Xi Jiu Er''s face ashened. She told the information that she had gathered to ex-sister-in-law and Liu Xiang, and ex-sister-in-law only asked: "Miss, do you have any countermeasures?"


    "Hmph, didn''t she want me to marry to the Young Master Xue? How can I fail to live up to her good intentions? " Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed. Seeing her like this, everyone was sure that she had a plan in mind, and she was no longer worried.


    Third Wife brought Mother Fang here, and said worriedly: "Ninth Miss, you are an intelligent person, don''t get too close to Young Master Xue, I''m afraid all of this is another scheme by First Lady."


    "Third Wife, don''t worry! Where''s Yan Er? " The Third Wife was actually a good person, as long as she was sincere towards her, she would give her heart to you. It''s a pity that such a nice girl actually married Xi Hong Sheng, she was more than enough to be a proper wife.


    "Yan Er was sent to the courtyard by the Master. The Young Master Xue is a head wolf, the Master is on guard against him." Third Wife said in a low voice: "Ninth Miss, feel free to tell me what I need."


    "Hehe, there''s no need. You just need to take good care of the child right now. I will naturally take care of these matters." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. When Third Wife left, Xi Jiu Er started to plot which one of her daughters, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Rong, would receive First Lady''s love.


    At night, Young Master Xue had nothing to do. It was very boring for him to be sleeping obediently right now. Young Master Xue tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. In the end, he sat up and found something to do, but when he opened the door, besides the dark night sky, there was only darkness.


    "Young Master, do you want this servant to bring a servant girl over for you? I''ll give you a taste!" The servant ''hehe'' laughed maliciously as he thought to himself. Young Master Xue raised his eyebrows: "You still understand this Young Master!"


    The servant quickly went to find a servant girl. Although the servant girl was not very beautiful, her wistful look captivated the hungry and thirsty Young Master Xue. He immediately hugged her without saying a word ¡­


    Young Master Xue stayed in Xi Mansion for a few days, and on the day of Xi Mansion''s birthday, he finally let out a sigh of relief! Young Master Xue said he would just go with him, so Xi Hong Sheng agreed.


    This time, the Third Wife being pregnant was inconvenient for him to go, so he stayed with the Old Madame. The concubines in the mansion had no right to go, they all had to chant Buddhist scriptures in the ancestral hall!


    and Young Master Xue were in the same carriage, First Lady was in the same carriage, Xi Wan Feng was in the same carriage, Xi Wan Feng was in the same carriage, Xi Wan Feng was in the same carriage as Xi Wan Feng in the carriage. She had to be careful of her only son.


    Xi Jiu Er, Liu Xiang and the rest were riding on their own carriages, while the other carriages behind them were servants. According to the distance, they would need to travel for a day, and thus, they would leave early in the morning, and when it was almost noon, everyone should rest up, Young Master Xue felt that his butt was hurting greatly, and upon hearing that he needed to rest, he immediately ran out of the carriage to take a breath of fresh air. Seeing that the wild flowers by the side of the road were not bad, he took out a handful of them and rushed to Xi Jiu Er''s carriage and knocked on it.


    Liu Xiang lifted the curtain unhappily: What''s the matter?


    "Hehe, I can see that the flowers outside are pretty good, so I''ll give them to your Miss." As she said that, she handed the flower in her hand to Liu Xiang, who took it over after looking at Xi Jiu Er: "My Miss likes it a lot, thank you Young Master Xue!"


    The flowers were so beautiful that they were alluring and alluring. Even though the wild flowers by the roadside were sometimes more fragrant than those at home, why else would men like the wild flowers by the roadside so much? Naturally, there was a reason behind it.


    First Lady looked at her two daughters, compared to Xi Wan Feng, she was a lot more active. She immediately supported her maidservants down the carriage and smiled: "Liu Xiang, this flower is really pretty, Young Master Xue is interested."


    "Hehe, if there''s something good, I naturally have to give it to Ninth Miss." Young Master Xue was not a naive brat, she had the ability to coax girls. Otherwise, how could someone like him, who saved him, willingly marry him?


    "Young Master Xue is really considerate." Xi Wan Rong laughed, hearing that tone, there was a bit of ambiguity, and her business had increased, it was clear that she was planning to let everyone know about it.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly in her heart, the more you laugh, the happier you will be. At that time, you would be even more sad! Seeing that there were no movements in the carriage, Young Master Xue could not help but ask, "Ninth Miss, do you like flowers?"


    "The flowers are beautiful, very beautiful. I really like them." Xi Jiu Er feigned a bashful reply, and felt like she was about to vomit. ex-sister-in-law at the side secretly laughed while covering her mouth, Liu Shui''s eyes revealed a trace of a smile.


    "It''s good that Ninth Miss likes it. It''s my honor." Although she knew that this was fake, she still couldn''t bear the thought of it. With a cold snort, she turned around and left.


    "How is it?" First Lady asked.


    Xi Wan Rong snorted: "I think she''s enjoying it a lot, there''s definitely hope."


    "Really?" That would be for the best. " First Lady nodded his head. The First Lady had arranged accommodations for the guests, the husband and wife must not share a room in the temple, so they arranged for Xi Hong Sheng to share a room, she and Xi Wan Feng would sleep together, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Jiu Er would be together.


    Originally, Xi Wan Feng lived with Xi Jiu Er, but after First Lady thought about it, living with Wan Rong was not without benefits. She gave the medicine to Xi Wan Rong and reminded her repeatedly to watch Xi Jiu Er drink.

    "Don''t worry mother, your daughter will definitely see her drink it." Xi Wan Rong held the paper bag in her hands, she could not help but want to see Xi Jiu Er''s disgrace, she would definitely be beaten up like a dog that had fallen into the water!


    "Little sister, don''t you dare reveal any flaws. Xi Jiu Er is really smart, what if her plans were to be discovered, it''ll all be for naught!" Xi Wan Feng, who was fully aware of Xi Wan Rong''s personality, was afraid that when the time came, everything would be for nothing!


    "I know. Do you really think I''m that stupid?" Xi Wan Rong curled her lips as she could not bear to look at her, as though she was nothing in her eyes, she was just a little more knowledgeable than him, and not that smart.


    "Alright, alright, you two take it easy on me, Rong Er, your sister is right, Xi Jiu Er has changed a lot, she is no longer the same person, if you are not careful, we will not be able to get anything." First Lady immediately stopped her two daughters from arguing, afraid that they would argue again.


    "mother, I know, I will definitely pay attention." Xi Wan Rong said impatiently: "I''m going back."


    "Go." First Lady knew her daughter''s personality. When would she know to change it? With some headaches, she hoped that their plan would succeed this time around. First Lady felt helpless. He still had a lot of things to take care of tomorrow, so he decided to sleep first.


    Xi Wan Feng was not as worried as the First Lady. Whether it was Xi Jiu Er or Xi Wan Rong, they were not a threat to her. She was simply not Xi Jiu Er''s opponent, so this time, she was afraid that she would be at a disadvantage. Hmph, that''s good too. Only after suffering a loss would she know how to remember.


    Xi Wan Rong arrived in the room before Xi Jiu Er, and secretly mixed the medicine into the tea before pretending to rest as if nothing had happened! After a while, Xi Jiu Er returned as well. The one on duty was the ex-sister-in-law, the one Xi Wan Rong was most afraid of was the, the one he hated the most was the ex-sister-in-law, and the one he liked to bully the most was Liu Xiang. Seeing that it was ex-sister-in-law, Xi Wan Rong snorted: "Coming out and taking three maids with you, what a grand atmosphere you have."


    "What can you do about it? I''d love to. If you don''t like it, why don''t you bring three maids along as well." Xi Jiu Er also replied. Originally, it was Liu Xiang who was on duty, but later on she exchanged it with him! Xi Jiu Er had thought that the First Lady would let Xi Wan Feng sleep with him, but she never thought that it would be Xi Wan Rong.


    "Do you think I''m as ostentatious as you?" Xi Wan Rong pursed her lips, her eyes, however, continuously observed Xi Jiu Er''s every move. Perhaps she was too obvious, no matter how she tried to conceal it, Xi Jiu Er would find out.


    "Miss, everything is ready!" ex-sister-in-law''s hands and feet were quickly arranged, and then she saw that Si Ping was only half done. She was so angry that Xi Wan Rong was not at ease, he even lost to his own servant.


    "Why are you still in a daze? Hurry up, this Miss is already dead tired!" Xi Wan Rong scolded, he wanted to step forward and kick the disgraced Si Ping to vent his anger, he panted and looked at ex-sister-in-law who was helping him comb his hair, then shifted his gaze to the teapot, as he thought about how to make Xi Jiu Er drink, but he had to wait for ex-sister-in-law to leave first. This ex-sister-in-law was sometimes too wise so it was not easy to fool her.


    "It''s alright, you can go now." Xi Jiu Er looked at ex-sister-in-law, and ex-sister-in-law nodded her head and retreated. Before she left, he deliberately looked at the teapot: "Miss, there''s water here, if you drink it, you can drink it."


    "I know."


    When the ex-sister-in-law left, Xi Wan Rong''s eyes that could not hide anything started rolling as he remembered it. He poured himself a cup of tea and drunk it all down, pretending to smack his lips: "Don''t say, the tea in this temple is even better than the ones in our residence. How about a sip?"


    Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but snicker when she saw Xi Wan Rong''s silly acting skills. The reason First Lady told Xi Wan Rong to come was to destroy their plan, if she looked at him with such clear eyes, she would even feel embarrassed to pretend not to know.


    "Is that so? "Fine, I''ll have a taste then." Xi Jiu Er was also very cooperative, causing Xi Wan Rong to be very flattered. What kind of wind did Xi Jiu Er draw tonight to cooperate with him? No matter, as long as she drank the water, she would wait to see a good show.


    Xi Jiu Er drank a mouthful of tea, how could she not be able to smell the strange odor coming from there? Who knows what kind of medicine it was, knockout drugs or aphrodisiacs? Under Xi Wan Rong''s attentive and expectant eyes, she drank a cup!


    "How''s the taste?" Xi Wan Rong''s heart could be said to be blooming with joy, hahaha, it was settled so easily, see how Xi Wan Feng calls himself stupid, let her look down on others.


    "Sure, why don''t you have a taste?" Xi Jiu Er revealed a strange smile. Previously, she had noticed that Xi Wan Rong was staring at the teapot nervously, and felt that there was a problem with drinking some spring water, so she was not afraid of the poison inside. Looking at Xi Wan Rong''s retreating face, she was amused, "Why do you not dare to drink it, is there poison in it?"


    "I''m not thirsty!" Xi Wan Rong turned his head to see that her servant was still working on it.


    Si Ping felt wronged, it was clearly you who had a lot of things, why should he blame her? Where the hell did they get so many things!?


    After he had finally tidied up, Xi Wan Rong laid comfortably on the bed. Her excitement had already forgotten her exhaustion of today. It had already been an hour, and Xi Wan Rong looked at this person who was sleeping soundly and started to have doubts in his heart. What was going on? Why is there no effect? Didn''t they say that it was an aphrodisiac? Even after an hour, there still hasn''t been any reaction?


    And so on... And so on...


    Finally hearing Xi Jiu Er''s snoring, Xi Wan Rong could no longer wait. There was no mistake, she was actually snoring in her sleep, it was truly disgusting.


    She pricked up her ears and heard the sound of Xi Wan Rong getting up. She muttered to herself: "mother said that the medicine was very powerful, there is no reason it had no effect. Did mother give me the wrong medicine? This won''t do, I''ll go look for mother ¡­ "


    After the sound of clothes being put on, they heard someone open the door and leave ¡­ Xi Jiu Er turned to look and sure enough, he had left! When they opened the door to let ex-sister-in-law in, ex-sister-in-law and Xi Wan Rong''s maids were sleeping next door. However, Xi Wan Rong had too many things to do, so normally, the servants would wait at the door. Now that Xi Wan Rong had gone, her servant Si Ping had also gone with him.


    "Pour the tea into her water bag." Xi Jiu Er instructed.


    She only heard that when Xi Wan Rong was young, he took his servants out to play and took them away. When he found her at that time, he almost died of thirst, but she did not know if this was related to it.


    Then, they got the ex-sister-in-law to change the tea leaves, and the two of them started to tidy up their things. Just as Xi Jiu Er laid down, she heard some movement outside, and it was Xi Wan Rong who had returned. Xi Wan Rong gasped as he scolded, "What? It was clearly a mistake and you''re saying I did not do it well ¡­ "This is so infuriating."


    Xi Wan Feng, you are really annoying, saying that you did wrong and the mother did not give you the wrong medicine. However, Xi Jiu Er did not feel anything after drinking it, was it her fault? How infuriating.


    Xi Wan Feng''s heart was in turmoil, he immediately fell on the bed and slept, if not the mother''s plan, he would watch the next time. There are always opportunities... As he thought this, he gradually fell into a deep sleep.


    Xi Jiu Er slept soundly in the space so her mental state looked to be extremely good. On the other hand, Xi Wan Rong woke up with green eyes and only covered her with a lot of powder when she woke her up.


    "You didn''t sleep well last night?"


    "None of your business." Xi Jiu Er''s smile was extremely glaring no matter how one looked at it, and she snorted coldly.


    Hesitation time too early in the temple right now did not send breakfast, still have to wait for chanting finished before eating breakfast! Xi Wan Rong''s mouth was now very dry, he looked at the teapot on the table, and did not dare drink. What if it was medicine?


    Si Ping searched around for a long time before finally finding one and giving it to Xi Wan Rong, causing him to feel at ease after taking a sip, and also feel a lot better!


    "You actually brought this along?" Xi Jiu Er pretended to be surprised.


    Xi Wan Rong coldly snorted. "None of your business."


    The chanting hall was already filled with monks. Xi Hong Sheng, First Lady, Xi Wan Feng, Xi Wan Rong and the others were all seated on prayer mats as they recited the sutras! First Lady did not seem to be able to sleep well, his eyes looked tired and tired. Xi Wan Feng''s spirit was still strong enough, only Xi Wan Rong was sitting on the praying mat drowsily, muttering some incantations that even he did not know what it was.


    Xi Jiu Er clasped her hands together as she recited scriptures to repent her sins in front of the Buddha statue! She hoped that Buddha would be able to forgive him for her sins, thinking that First Lady and the others had done it first. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have harmed them.


    On the other side, Xi Wan Rong who was originally drowsy felt his body becoming hotter. Could it be that he had a fever? She guessed! Fortunately, the sutra was almost over, so she endured it.


    After they finished reciting the sutras, everyone went to eat at the cafeteria. However, Xi Wan Rong hurriedly said: "mother, our daughter is not feeling well. With that, he left.


    "mother, your daughter will go over to take a look!" Xi Wan Feng felt that there was something fishy about Xi Wan Rong, so he wanted to go up and take a look, rather than letting the First Lady stop him: "We''ll go take a look later, right now we''re all going to the cafeteria. If you go again, then there''s only one person left, your father will definitely blame you."


    One less person was understandable, but two less people couldn''t be justified. The First Lady naturally did not agree with it. In that case, Xi Wan Feng could only give up.


    "mother, I think Elder Sister Rong is sick. She didn''t even have a good rest last night, so I''m confused as to what she''s thinking. She went to sleep very late." She had to dispel this doubt of Xi Wan Feng''s as well. At that time, it would be bad if she sent a servant over, this medicine was obviously the aphrodisiac!

 C79

    "Is that so? This kid just has to get into bed at a young age, and then he won''t be able to sleep at another place. " The First Lady forced out a smile, feeling pained in her heart looking at the lively and disorderly Xi Jiu Er, her daughter believed that Xi Jiu Er drank from her, but she did not know how exactly the situation came to be, could it be that there was a problem with the pill?


    It can''t be, Mubai told himself that once he drinks this, even a pure and strong woman would become a Dangfu! It was one of the palace''s secret medicines, so she should believe in Mubai''s words ¡­


    Xi Wan Feng took a glance at Xi Jiu Er''s expression, but she did not say anything. On the way to the dining hall, Xi Jiu Er quietly ordered Liu Shui to keep an eye on his every move. Liu Shui slowly floated to the back of the crowd and suddenly turned to walk in the other direction.


    Xi Wan Feng was the first to know that Liu Shui had disappeared, she asked: "Where''s that servant called Liu Shui by your side?"


    "She went to the toilet." Xi Wan Feng was not someone who could be easily fooled. Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly, and the expression on her face did not look strange at all. Xi Wan Feng did not say anything else, as she could not continue pursuing the matter.


    In the dining hall, everyone was quietly eating, only the host and Xi Hong Sheng were discussing matters. Xi Jiu Er had good ears, so she heard a bit, and the host roughly told him that an influential figure would appear in the temple during the next few days. She did not say who the host was, she only saw Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes lit up, and was very excited, causing Xi Jiu Er to be very curious about the identity of the person.


    Xi Wan Rong asked Si Ping to bring him a bucket of water. Si Ping was stunned: Why does Miss need a bucket of water more than someone with a fever?


    "Of course it''s to bathe. Why are you blabbering so much? Hurry up and get out of here!" It''s cold water. " Xi Wan Rong tugged his collar and cursed. For some reason, she felt that her whole body was very hot, her heart felt as uncomfortable as hot iron, and her mouth was very dry.


    Even she was confused. That''s right, why did she want to take a bath when she had a fever? She was sick. Xi Wan Rong was lying on the bed using the kernels. In the end, Xi Wan Rong couldn''t help but think that no one would come into the room, so he stripped himself and laid on the bed. Only then did he feel slightly better, and he sighed happily.


    Young Master Xue who had been waiting all night thought that he could be together with Xi Jiu Er ¡­ However, in the end, she had been left empty-handed, causing his teeth to itch in anger. Even now, the fire had not yet subsided. Other than monks, it was also monks. This place was truly boring.


    When Young Master Xue passed by Xi Wan Rong''s house, he heard some weird sounds, he was too familiar with this sound, his curiosity was piqued, and he immediately opened the window, only to see Xi Wan Rong inside.


    "This XXX, I didn''t expect his outer appearance to be so pure. I didn''t think that deep down his bones he was ¡­" It was truly looked down on by others. Who would have thought that he would also see so many girls in such a manner? She was originally a beautiful person, her skin was sparkling and flawless like white jade ¡­ Once again, at the temple, the Young Master Xue began to ponder.


    His target was only Xi Jiu Er, but not Xi Wan Rong. This was what he had agreed to do with First Lady and the others ¡­ However, in the end, he still couldn''t hold it in anymore ¡­


    It wasn''t enough for her to want to bathe, so she had to inform her master beforehand, otherwise, she would be scolded again.


    At this moment, sounds of movement came from inside ¡­


    She who was filled with panic and fear didn''t know whether she should tell First Lady or not. If she told First Lady about her own Miss, wouldn''t he beat her to death when he got angry? Si Ping was so afraid that he no longer had an idea. He turned around anxiously and prayed that Xi Wan Rong and Young Master Xue would finish this matter quickly.


    When he went inside, he immediately heard Xi Wan Rong''s voice and his own Young Master''s voice, and immediately understood what was going on. The moment he heard it, he immediately understood what was going on.


    Weird, didn''t the Young Master have his eyes on the Xi Family? How did he end up with the Xi Family? The young servant stayed at Young Master Xue''s side all year round, seeing those fleshy perverted trees. Now that he heard that alluring voice, his heart was moved. Seeing that Si Ping''s looks were good and his figure was not bad, he immediately said: "Aiya, my dear Miss Si Ping, why are you still standing at the door blankly? What if you attract the attention of the people around you, then we might as well rest in the neighboring room and wait for Master to finish his business before coming out."


    Si Ping thought that this was reasonable. Since no one was around and she was standing right there, she would definitely be beaten to death if anyone found out that the consequences were unimaginable. Thus, the two of them went to the room next door ¡­ As soon as he entered the room, the manservant couldn''t wait to cover the maid''s mouth and laugh.


    This wasn''t the first time he had done this kind of thing. He had long since gotten used to it and made a mistake ¡­


    Liu Shui watched them hide in the tree not far away quietly, and thought about how to make this matter public. She only had one body of skill, his service was inferior to Liu Xiang, and his intelligence was inferior to ex-sister-in-law. He had an idea.


    Liu Shui looked around for targets and finally picked a monk. He said that he was lost and did not know how to return, she was a servant of the Xi Family. The monk, Amitabha, brought her to the side room.


    When he arrived at the door, he heard the sound. The monk was startled and his expression turned weird, as though he had just seen something dirty. Liu Shui was confused: "Huh? Isn''t that the voices of the Second Miss and the Young Master Xue inside? This... "What''s going on?"


    The monk looked as if he had seen something dirty. He looked hesitant as he said, "This female benefactor, we have reached our destination ¡­" He then ran away like a wisp of smoke. Liu Shui felt that her plan was not feasible, so she turned left and right to see a man bringing a pregnant woman over. She suddenly had an idea, she walked up and said: "This Madame Gongzi, I think Second Miss is sick, can you come with me to take a look?"


    That Young Noble originally didn''t want to care about her, but after thinking about it for a while, he realized that this was a holy ground of Buddha, and maybe the opportunity Buddha had found, so he said: "I''m not a doctor, so I can only go take a look for a bit!"


    "Thank you, young master, thank you ¡­" looked like she liked it and asked: "Which family are you from?"


    Liu Shui immediately stated that he was Xi Jiu Er''s servant. His Miss forgot to bring something out so he came to retrieve it, but when he heard the weird sound coming from the house, it was painful. She was worried that the master inside was sick, so she came to look for someone. As for Si Ping and the young servant ¡­ She had knocked them both out...


    The man and woman smiled slightly. It turned out to be Xi Family! Xi Jiu Er was a famous person now, if she did not look for Sun Kong Ming for the prescription, the people in the capital would be able to see something different! Young Master laughed: "So you are a servant of Xi Family!"


    "Right." Liu Shui laughed innocently.


    The young master had an extraordinary bearing and the Madame was also a beautiful and luxurious place. Although they were dressed simply, it was unable to obstruct their noble aura and the servants behind them. Liu Shui brought them out of the house, and they heard a voice from inside. She pretended to be surprised, "Eh, why is Young Master Xue inside?"


    The young master and Madame were already husband and wife, how could he not understand this? They looked at each other and understood what the people in the room were doing! He said angrily, "Ridiculous, how dare you ¡­" Finally, when he wanted to say something, he was stopped by the Madame beside him.


    "Second Miss ¡­" Just as Liu Wen was about to push open the door and enter, the Madame stopped her and beckoned her over: "No need, your Miss is not sick, let''s go!"


    "No, no. Why are you crying out so painfully?" Liu Shui followed her and became a little worried, causing the Madame beside her to blush. It was not good to explain to Liu Shui, so she said: "Don''t worry, your Second Miss doesn''t have it."


    "Madame can''t be wrong. Servant believes in you." Liu Shui said that Liu Shui was a liar. As long as he smiled, he would reveal a silly smile!


    A group of people not far away had arrived. Liu Shui said: "Madame, my Miss is here!" was not the only one here, although Liu Shui did not know who he was, the Madame could see from her temperament, that the woman was very calm and composed, with a smile on her face!


    "Miss... Great Miss ¡­ " Liu Shui bowed to the two of them! Xi Jiu Er looked at the young master and Madame that were not far away and slightly nodded her head in salutation! Madame replied with a smile, but the young master''s face was extremely ugly!


    There was no more movement in the room, at least for now! It gave the scene a temporary silence! The Madame asked with her stomach sticking out, "You are Xi Jiu Er?" As she spoke, she took the initiative to walk over.


    Seeing that their demeanor was not like that of an ordinary person, Xi Jiu Er''s attitude was only a bit more composed than usual: "Yes, this Madame is ¡­" She looked at Liu Shui, who pointed towards the house. Xi Jiu Er knew after thinking that there would be a good show to watch.


    The Madame could only smile faintly and say to Xi Jiu Er, "You are really a good child. The smallpox in the capital is all thanks to your contributions, if not, I would have really discovered the consequences of imagining it!"

 C80

    When she raised her head, she immediately screamed out when she saw Young Master Xue dressed in clothes. Luckily Young Master Xue reacted quickly and covered her mouth, her vicious gaze directed outside the window, meaning she understood that there was someone outside!


    Xi Wan Rong listened carefully. Outside, he could hear not only Xi Jiu Er''s and Xi Wan Feng''s voices, but also other people. It was obvious that there were a lot of people outside! Too terrifying. Could it be that they discovered something? If this secret was discovered, their reputation would be ruined. Thinking about this, the blood in Xi Wan Rong''s entire body suddenly froze, the color of his face completely faded, and his body could not help but begin to tremble.


    "Wear your clothes quickly, I''ll escape from the window." In fact, he could do it in broad daylight but the place was not suitable for him. This was the famous Gu Sha, if word of this got out, the empress dowager would definitely beat him to death.


    Xi Wan Rong nodded her head stiffly, seeing Young Master Xue dressed in her robes, she did not care about being shy at all, as he had already thought of ways to settle this matter, how could he not be discovered. His body was extremely sore, so Xi Wan Rong did not dare to be slow! Young Master Xue put on his robe and without saying a word opened the window and jumped out. He didn''t even turn around to look at her.


    Xi Wan Rong scolded the Young Master Xue in her heart. She was finally dressed, and when she looked at the bloodstained clothes, her heart turned cold. Why, why did such a thing happen? Not giving her time to think any further, she heard the sound of someone pushing open the door. She immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and pulled the blanket over her without saying a word!


    "Elder Sister Rong, are you alright ¡­" There was a dense Qi in the room, Xi Jiu Er felt that this Qi was so disgusting that she almost wanted to puke, and seeing Xi Wan Rong hiding in the blanket, she pretended to worry.


    Xi Wan Feng''s face did not look good. She told the servant to look for First Lady and said that she would definitely think of a way to escape since something big happened! She was not in a good mood to go and greet Xi Jiu Er. She only thought that her little sister would lose her reputation. Just now, quite a few people had heard the commotion within the house ¡­ For a moment, Xi Wan Feng didn''t know whether to be happy or sad in his heart.


    She had never liked the arrogant Xi Wan Rong, and every time Xi Wan Rong would give her face, she would never take him as her big sister. This was because when the old Madame and the old First Lady doted on Xi Wan Rong, they would always be full of themselves in front of her, causing Xi Wan Feng to be extremely angry. She felt that she cared for this little sister of hers, and cared for her a lot.


    She wanted Xi Wan Rong to teach her a lesson and wear down her arrogance, but the current Xi Wan Rong was not a virgin, for her, her reputation would go up to the heavens! She couldn''t help but worry what Xi Wan Rong would do in the future. This must not be spread out.


    "Elder Sister Rong Wan ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was happy in her heart, so she called out diligently. Finally, she couldn''t take it anymore and shouted loudly: "Are you done yet, it''s not like I''m dead, what are you calling out." Xi Wan Rong''s mind was in a mess, she pulled back her blanket and glared at Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er... She should have been given to her by the Young Master Xue ¡­ Why did it become her, why did it become her!? It was all because of that bitch Xi Jiu Er, it was all her fault! The more Xi Wan Rong thought about it, the more he felt that he was a pitiful person, and that he shouldn''t bear such a thing, but Xi Jiu Er instead.


    "Bitch, Bitch, it''s all your fault, it''s all your fault!" Xi Wan Rong wanted to slap Xi Jiu Er on the face, but she revealed a sinister smile while pinching her wrist: "Elder Sister Rong, you are truly a cruel and unscrupulous person. You cannot allow others to treat you well, I have good relations with you, you better scold me as a slut. Even if I am a slut, how can I be better than you? "Before you leave the pavilion, you just hang around the temple with men, and you have no fear of going to hell after death."


    With a boom, Xi Wan Rong stared at Xi Jiu Er blankly. She knew, how did she know? Her eyes opened wide as she looked at Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Jiu Er seemed to know what she was thinking, "You shouted out so loudly, not only did I hear you, many others also heard you."


    "Really?" Xi Wan Rong''s face was ashen, she stared straight at Xi Jiu Er, her mind thinking about how many people had heard her, what should she do, what should she do? For a moment, tears rolled down her face, but she didn''t even make a sound. Her look really made people want to take pity on her.


    However, Xi Jiu Er did not pity her at all, she had given the pill to him, or else she would be the one to suffer today. She was afraid that Xi Wan Rong would yell until everyone knew about it, so Xi Wan Rong was not pitiful at all.


    After all, she was born from the same mother. Xi Wan Feng comforted her: "Don''t cry, don''t cry. mother will be here soon. However, her comforting words were taunting in Xi Wan Rong''s eyes. There were two people in the household who could not stand to see her in a good light. One of them was Xi Jiu Er while the other one was definitely Xi Wan Feng''s elder sister.


    "Are you happy now?" Are you satisfied? Are you proud? " Xi Wan Rong suddenly shouted hysterically, "Xi Wan Feng, you are the most fake, you are even more fake than that slut Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er, at least, knows that you are scolding me in broad daylight, and you only know that you are scolding me behind my back. I know that you look down on me and have not learned to look down on me.


    Xi Wan Feng''s entire being was staring straight at Xi Wan Rong. She was wrong, she should not have pitied her little sister, everything was self-inflicted.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that it was interesting. So this was how she viewed Xi Wan Feng. Not necessarily! Xi Jiu Er stood at the side and listened to Xi Wan Rong''s curses with relish.


    "Xi Wan Feng, say it, were you the one who framed me?!" Xi Wan Rong had already lost her reasoning, and was thinking about who the culprit was. Xi Jiu Er did not believe that she was together with Xi Jiu Er the entire night, so how could he have the time to make a move? When she left in the morning, Xi Jiu Er was also the first to leave. She was the last one to leave, excluding Xi Jiu Er, there was only Xi Wan Feng left.


    "It''s not me." Xi Wan Feng clenched his teeth and tried to defend himself.


    Xi Wan Rong laughed coldly: "I will investigate and find out that Xi Wan Feng is not yours. Otherwise, I won''t let you off, I won''t let you off."


    Xi Wan Feng watched as she was misunderstood by her own younger sister, and the last bit of her kinship with Xi Wan Rong was also gone. She laughed coldly, "Wow, if you want to investigate, then go ahead.


    Xi Wan Rong snorted coldly, she would definitely find the culprit who framed her! Suddenly, the ex-sister-in-law rushed over and whispered this into Xi Jiu Er''s ear., who was very sensitive, turned her head and stared at Xi Jiu Er: "What secret are you two talking about?"


    It''s not a secret, it''s just that your servant, Si Ping, and the Young Master Xue servant fainted in the neighboring room. Xi Jiu Er sarcastically said, "What kind of treasures do you have?!"


    Xi Wan Feng also felt that it was interesting, the masters treated people with contempt, and did not confirm the words spoken, but rather, confirmed what kind of master they were, what kind of servant they were. If she did not do this, then who did? It must be true for Xi Wan Rong to say that he was framed. Could it be that the one attacking was Xi Jiu Er?


    had too many doubts that caused him to target Xi Jiu Er. Seeing that the two sisters did not like each other, Xi Jiu Er cried out: "Why are you looking at me like that? You think I made it? "Although I hate her, I definitely wouldn''t do it with a woman''s chastity. I''d only be happy if I disfigured her."


    "I didn''t say that you did it. Why are you in such a hurry to explain yourself?" Xi Wan Feng said.


    "I didn''t say you did it!" Xi Jiu Er could not be bothered with Xi Wan Feng and ordered ex-sister-in-law to deal with this grandmother and the other workers properly, so that no one would find out.


    The more Xi Wan Rong looked at it, the more he felt that Xi Wan Feng was the one who killed him. There were many conflicts between her and Xi Jiu Er where the other party was threatening to disfigure her, and just like Xi Jiu Er had said, if she wanted to harm him, she would only do so by disfiguring him. Although her elder sister seemed very dignified and generous, she was actually extremely sinister to the bones.


    In order to prevent the maid from being discovered, he had to pretend to be magnanimous, so he had used a long silver needle to punish his! Other than this, there were many other methods. All of the maidservants in her courtyard were extremely afraid of her. Sometimes, the poison in the mother also came from her big sister ¡­


    Xi Wan Feng knew that he had already become the killer in front of Xi Wan Rong. No matter how hard she tried to defend Xi Wan Rong, she would not believe it! She would only believe in the real murderer.


    "What''s wrong?" She felt that something must have happened. Seeing Xi Wan Rong, she thought that her daughter was feeling uncomfortable and immediately sat down to ask: Rong Er, what''s wrong, is it that she''s not feeling well?


    "mother... mother... "Wuu wuu, someone wants to harm her daughter!" As soon as he saw First Lady, Xi Wan Rong felt his heart tighten, he hugged First Lady and cried his heart out, scaring First Lady out of his wits.


    Xi Jiu Er frowned: "I advise elder sister to lower her voice, do you want everyone to know about it?"


    "What happened?" First Lady felt that something big must have happened ¡­ She suddenly saw the bruise on Xi Wan Rong''s neck. She knew what it was from experience, so she immediately grabbed onto Xi Wan Rong''s shoulder and asked: "Where did you get this from? Speak!"


    "Yes, yes ¡­" Seeing that First Lady was so scared that she did not dare cry, Xi Wan Rong moved closer to the inside, and did not know what to say, because she was confused too.

    The weather was beautiful, and it was a beautiful day. Xi Jiu Er was in a very good mood as she brought Liu Xiang and Liu Shui, the two maids to take a walk. The carriage only arrived after an hour''s worth of travel. The three of them were already drowsy and no longer had the mood to walk.


    There were quite a few people who had stepped on their feet today. It took them a while to recover from their shock. There were quite a few vendors buying snacks in this place. Liu Shui was drooling as he watched. As a person, her greatest hobby was eating ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er gave her a silver coin so she could buy it for her to eat. This action of hers made Xi Jiu Er feel that she was an old lady, and Liu Shui was a kid who had a delicious mouth ¡­ Looking at Liu Shui''s lively figure, Xi Jiu Er sighed.


    "Let''s go take a seat over there." Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Xiang to a quiet place that was filled with dense grass. With a hualala sound, a big hand covered Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang''s noses and mouth accurately with lightning speed.


    "Wuwuwu ¡­"


    "Woo woo ¡­"


    His vision turned black. The head had been covered by a black cloth. Xi Jiu Er felt his body swaying, and outside, he heard the sound of a horse carriage. It should be the carriage. His mouth was stuffed with a foul cloth, and he could not open his mouth. He could only use his ears to listen and his nose to sniff.


    Liu Xiang''s aura was still around and there was no smell of blood. Xi Jiu Er was a lot more at ease. A man''s voice came from outside: "Hehe, tell me, the Miss that we have tied up should be worth quite a bit of silver."


    Yun Family? Yun Qing Ran? Kidnapping?


    "Boss didn''t say how much it was, but Boss said that it was a huge sum of money, enough for our brother to live and drink for months." Another man said as he held the carriage.


    "Hee hee ¡­"


    "Alright, don''t laugh. We are going to pass through the city gate soon. We can''t show our faces."


    The sounds gradually increased. There were people buying vegetables, shouting and so on. A voice as cold as spring came over, "Boss, how much is this for?"


    Was it Xiao Feng?


    "Aiya, this young master truly has good eyesight. This bracelet is the best of the best ¡­" Gongzi, gongzi, where are you going ¡­ Don''t go... "Don''t go ¡­" At this time, Feng Qing Cheng unwittingly turned his head around, and the curtain of the carriage at his side was lifted slightly. There was a woman with a head covering, whom he originally didn''t care about, but there was a faint fragrance coming from her clothes ¡­ He narrowed his eyes, put down the bracelet in his hand and followed the carriage.


    The horse carriage left the city unhindered and arrived outside a sparsely populated area. A green shadow jumped up and down behind the carriage, who else could it be other than Feng Qing Cheng?


    Xi Jiu Er was pulled down, following that, Liu Xiang''s voice came out, Liu Xiang cried out, Xi Jiu Er also cried out, and they understood that everything was fine.


    "Let''s go. Hurry up."


    "Don''t waste anymore time ¡­"


    "Boss, we''ve brought them."


    A man with a scar on his face was sitting on a rock, smoking a cigarette. He was several meters away from the cliff face. The knife-scarred man threw away his cigarette and said loudly: "Miss Yun, I, too, will take a bite out of you. The one who is taking your life is not me, but your concubinage.


    So it was Yun Qing.


    "Eh?" The knife-scarred man tilted his head and two men pushed Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang towards the cliff. Xi Jiu Er''s entire body was tied up tightly, she could not see anything, and could only feel a strong wind blowing towards him, wuu.


    "Who is it?"


    "Who?"


    "Ahh!"


    "Save me!"


    "Boss ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes lit up, in her eyes was a handsome and unrefined man, her clothes fluttering, she stood in front of Xi Jiu Er and looked at her indifferently, her voice was still as loud as spring, ringing out: "Are you alright?"


    Xiao Feng? Why was he here?


    "I, I''m fine ¡­" Xi Jiu Er retracted her gaze, looked at the man who was lying on the ground and clutching his stomach, and thought about how to tie this man up and throw him to Lady Yun.


    "Miss, are you alright?" Liu Xiang came over to inspect Xi Jiu Er and found that there was nothing amiss with him. Seeing that the bandit was angry, she stepped forward and kicked him fiercely a few times: "You bad guy, you tied him up without even seeing him clearly. We are not Miss of the Yun Family."


    The man frowned and asked, "Then who are you?"


    "We are from Xi Family." Liu Xiang didn''t understand what had happened for Liu Xiang to be so furious. Only later did Liu Xiang tell her that it was the bandit lying on the ground that had made a move on her.


    "Alright, Liu Xiang..." Xi Jiu Er went forward to stop Liu Xiang and with a leap, she grabbed Xi Jiu Er by the throat. Feng Qing Cheng immediately picked up a stone and threw it at the man''s wrist, and the stone pierced into her flesh, causing the man to wail in pain.


    "Miss!"


    "Jiu Er!" Feng Qing Cheng shouted.


    The sturdy man held onto Xi Jiu Er tightly and jumped off the cliff with Xi Jiu Er in his arms. Feng Qing Cheng shot out like a sharp sword, jumping off the cliff. Xi Jiu Er looked up in shock. Shock filled his eyes.


    He, why did he jump down?


    "Don''t be afraid ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng''s voice mysteriously calmed Xi Jiu Er, and a strange feeling rose in his heart. In the next moment, Feng Qing Cheng did not even make a move, his body formed a circle in the air and fell into a warm embrace.


    Xi Jiu Er trembled slightly as her breathing started to become disordered. What had happened that night appeared in her mind once more. Just like the other girls, Xi Jiu Er had a special kind of feeling towards this "first time": awkward, shy, and evasive.


    "Are you alright?" Feng Qing Cheng''s voice was mixed with the sound of the wind, carrying along with it a unique aura that was familiar to him. Xi Jiu Er came back to reality and shook her head, surprised by Feng Qing Cheng''s high level of martial arts. It was effortless for him to grab onto the cliff face with his bare hands, even Mu Qiu Shui might not be able to do it.


    "I''m fine." Xi Jiu Er stopped opening her eyes and looked down. For some reason, she felt her stomach churning and she felt very uncomfortable.


    "Let''s go up." Feng Qing Cheng realized that she was not feeling well, and immediately brought her to his side with a few leaps. Liu Xiang was so frightened that he collapsed onto the ground, his eyes opened wide as if he had died. With a sou sound, her eyes widened as she said in pleasant surprise: "Miss, Miss, you are fine, great ¡­ "Sob, sob ¡­"


    "It''s fine, what''s there to be afraid of? After experiencing so many things, wasn''t I in good shape?" Xi Jiu Er consoled her. She felt that Liu Xiang''s body was trembling, and her heart was in pain as well.


    "Miss Xi ¡­ I have something to tell you. " Feng Qing Cheng said.


    Xi Jiu Er was startled. "Young Master."


    "Why did you knock me out that night?" Feng Qing Cheng''s cold face had a different kind of expression, a layer of warmth stained it: "Why did you leave without saying goodbye, and still pretend that you don''t know me when you see me, as if nothing happened at all."


    Being asked directly by Feng Qing Cheng, Xi Jiu Er turned her face away unnaturally, and facing Liu Xiang''s curious eyes, she found it difficult to speak. did not want to let him know that she was not a virgin, so she did not know much about that person.


    "Liu Xiang, help me stand guard. Tell me immediately if anyone approaches."


    "Oh ¡­" Liu Xiang left obediently.


    "That... Young master, let''s pretend that nothing happened that night. You live your life, I''ll live mine. We won''t interfere in one another''s business. " Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but laugh.


    "Why do you pretend that nothing happened? We all happened... I already have the truth of being husband and wife... I ¡­ I have to take responsibility for you! " Feng Qing Cheng was dissatisfied with Xi Jiu Er''s words. His attitude was very insistent and sincere.


    "Huh?" Xi Jiu Er hurriedly shook his head: "No need, no need, you don''t have to be responsible for me, I don''t need you to be responsible for me either."


    "No way!" Feng Qing Cheng said with an angry expression, "You are already my wife! Do you want to marry someone else? "


    "Hehe, I''ve never thought of marrying before. I just want to settle my grudge with my mother. After I take care of the people who hurt me, I will find a place to live in seclusion and live like a crane in the clouds." As Xi Jiu Er spoke, her expression was ethereal.


    "Why not?"


    "I want to find a man to spend the rest of my life with me. I won''t take a concubine, I won''t walk the brothels, and in my heart, my eyes are filled with only me. "No matter how much time passes, I am the only one left ¡­" Xi Jiu Er looked at Feng Qing Cheng''s silent expression and sneered in his heart, who can be a couple for life now? Which man did not have a concubinage? What man would spend his long life with a woman?


    "So ¡­" "You see, rather than marrying a disinterested husband and fighting with those women in the backyard all day, it''s better to be by yourself and live a bit more carefree, don''t you think?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows. Even if there was a man who had promised her a pair of people in this life, she wouldn''t believe him.


    A man''s oath was never to be trusted.


    I am only a young doctor, I cannot earn much silver, I can only eat three meals a day to get my fill. You are a rich Miss, I hope you do not mind me. Feng Qing Cheng stood at the edge of the cliff. A light breeze blew, causing her hair to be as black as ink.


    It formed an image that touched upon Xi Jiu Er''s heart.


    "You, you didn''t understand what I just said?" Xi Jiu Er frowned, why was she not listening to him speak?


    "I understand, I will do what you say. "It''s good enough for just one woman. Three wives, four concubines, and you need to spend money to raise them and also use up all your energy. You just have to chattering endlessly in front of me all day. I''m most afraid of living this kind of life." Feng Qing Cheng facepalmed.


    Xi Jiu Er held her breath, shook his head, and said, "I still can''t marry you. The husband that I want is someone who can love me and love me dearly, not someone who would marry a woman and come back just for the sake of living. What does this have to do with strangers? "


    "Xi Jiu Er! How do you know I don''t love you? " Feng Qing Cheng slowly raised her head and spoke word by word, as she beat Xi Jiu Er''s heart with similar words.


    "I don''t believe it." Xi Jiu Er insisted that Feng Qing Cheng did not love him. What a joke, how long had she known Feng Qing Cheng and there were only a handful of ways that he could fall in love with her? Was he trying to coax a fool?


    "Believe it or not!" "Since you said that you wouldn''t consider getting married until after you''ve settled your grudge, then ¡ª when you''ve settled your mind and achieved your goal, I''ll come and marry you!" Feng Qing Cheng stared fixedly at Xi Jiu Er, and suddenly turned and left.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at his back, lost in thought.


    "Miss, what''s wrong?" Liu Xiang''s voice...


    Xi Jiu Er came back to reality and laughed involuntarily. Hehe, I was just talking, why would I take it seriously? Xi Jiu Er immediately tossed Feng Qing Cheng''s words to the back of his mind.

 C82

    "Where''s Si Ping? Where did Si Ping die, call her to see me! " Both Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng could not help but shiver in fear. Only Xi Jiu Er was not afraid, because what she wanted to see the most was this kind of effect. After calculating everything over and over again, I didn''t expect that the one who would get hurt in the end is your precious daughter, hahaha! Xi Jiu Er laughed heartily in her heart.


    "Go, call Si Ping over." Xi Jiu Er instructed Liu Shui, for this kind of thing, it was most appropriate for Liu Shui to do.


    Si Ping was so frightened that she became paralyzed. She almost died from the shock when she greeted the First Lady, her lips trembling as she saluted, "This ¡­ Servant greets First Lady!"


    First Lady suddenly stood up and threw a slap across his face: "What happened, tell me in detail. If you hide anything, I will skin you alive and beat your tendons out, and sell you to a lowly brothel."


    Si Ping suddenly shook hersheead and cried, "First Lady, it has nothing to do with Servant at all. Today, Miss was not feeling well, so she ordered Servant to prepare some water baths. After Servant went to the temple, none of the monks were there, so Servant waited for a while, and only found water after someone came. But since there was not enough water, Servant decided to report to Miss, and then ¡­ Then... Servant... Servant heard the Miss outside the door. had already wanted to go find him at the time she heard Young Master Xue''s voice, but what if someone came back after she left? Thus, the Servant stayed outside the cave. However, the Servant was afraid that if he attracted any attention outside the door, he would run into the room. Who knew that the servants of the Young Master Xue would come here to threaten the Servant ¡­ Saying that the Miss is already someone from the Young Master Xue ¡­ If they did not obey him, he would expose this matter. With the Young Master Xue''s personality, even the empress dowager would not be able to do anything to him. Servant was afraid... "Then..." "I don''t know why, but I just fainted ¡­"


    Si Ping did not dare to hide anything, as she was afraid that the First Lady would angrily sell her to a brothel. This was not something that had never happened before, she was afraid! She could only cry silently, hoping that the First Lady could see that she had spared her life on the account that she had been serving her since she was young.


    "Is that boy really saying that?" First Lady asked with a darkened face.


    "Yes, Servant doesn''t dare to lie at all." Si Ping immediately replied.


    How insolent! A mere servant actually dared to spout such outrageous words! First Lady looked at her precious daughter in pain. Her most precious thing was gone ¡­ What should he do? What should he do? The smart First Lady didn''t have any idea in that moment, and only spoke with killing intent: "If word of this gets out, I won''t go around any of you!"


    The ''you'' she was referring to was not Xi Jiu Er or Xi Wan Rong, but those servants. It was said that servants often talk too much and their mouths were broken. If news of this got out, how could her daughter continue to be a human?


    "mother, others should know about this. Even if they don''t, they should know what''s going on inside!" Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Just now, there were some pilgrims who passed by here. There was a big commotion in the room, they already know about it."


    First Lady''s black body swayed for a moment, and Xi Wan Rong immediately pushed First Lady away saying, "I don''t want to live anymore, why not die" before crashing into the wall. Xi Jiu Er''s reaction was the fastest, as she immediately took a few steps forward and pulled her over! You want to die? Don''t even think about it!


    "Rong Er, what happens if you die in mother, it''s not like there''s no turning back, they heard some movement inside the house, but they did not see your true appearance, who knows if it was you?" First Lady immediately thought of a countermeasure. It had to be said that she was a clever woman, Xi Jiu Er''s eyes flashed.


    "mother... Is there really a way? " Xi Wan Rong seemed to have seen hope, that''s right, they had only heard the voice, and that did not mean that the person inside was her. This method was not bad. He could escape.


    First Lady scolded her daughter about something that was worse than a beast of Young Master Xue: "Don''t worry, with mother here, you won''t lose your reputation!" First Lady looked at Si Ping, who was crying silently, and killing intent appeared in her eyes.


    With First Lady''s promise, Xi Wan Rong''s mood also became cheerful. He felt like he was alive again, and after experiencing this change, he felt extremely tired. It was enough to have a mother.


    "Feng''er, Jiu Er, you and Rong Er are sisters who love each other, this matter relates to Rong Er''s reputation, and you two have also seen that it is all because of that bastard, the Young Master Xue. Rong Er is just a victim, and she is innocent. This matter can''t be brought up to the public, the three of you sisters will live on happily. If Rong Er''s reputation breaks, it won''t be any better for you, so this is a secret. You guys don''t have to worry about anything. mother will settle this matter properly. " First Lady stared at Xi Wan Feng and Xi Jiu Er. She could be at ease with Xi Wan Feng, after all, she was her twin sister. What made her most worried was Xi Jiu Er ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was getting out of her control, and was getting harder and harder to handle.


    Xi Wan Feng nodded: "mother, don''t worry. Your daughter will definitely not say a single word about this to anyone."


    "That''s good, where is Jiu Er?" First Lady wanted to see Xi Jiu Er make an expression at him.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, "Naturally, all of them will be prosperous while all will be ruined."


    "Alright, you all can go down first. Tonight, Jiu Er will sleep with Feng''er, Rong Er will sleep with me." First Lady told them to go down first, and only Wang Ma was left. When they left, the First Lady said with a dark expression: "What do you think about this matter?"


    "This old servant feels that something is amiss, I will ask about it after Miss Rong wakes up." Wang Ma considered for a moment before replying, "Why don''t I go get Young Master Xue?"


    The moment First Lady mentioned this name, he immediately clenched his teeth. This thing that didn''t do anything well, if he couldn''t handle it well, he would find his own daughter. He really wanted to kill him so that he could vent the hatred in his heart.


    "Go get someone to wait for me under the tree in the front yard ¡­" First Lady touched Xi Wan Rong''s little face in pain, he had orders to serve Xi Wan Rong!


    "Madame, what should we do with Si Ping..." Wang Ma asked softly.


    "What should we do? Naturally, we cannot let them live! "


    There was a big tree in the front yard that was said to be over a hundred years old. First Lady could see the Young Master Xue and her servant laughing from afar. Thinking of the servant''s arrogant words, he became gloomy.


    The Young Master Xue was not afraid of the First Lady, since the one who was at a disadvantage was her daughter, what could Xi Wan Rong do by insisting that he was the one in charge of GOUYIN? Unless the Xi Family did not want this reputation, then they would fight to the death with him. Hmph, if you make him angry, then marry Xi Wan Rong back, good ¡­


    "Madame." Young Master Xue immediately started flattering First Lady who was walking over, from the looks of it, he did not even take anyone seriously, the anger in First Lady almost attacked his heart, good, today if she did not take care of this brat properly, she would lose her face.


    "Yes." First Lady waved for the people beside him to take their leave. When Young Master Xue saw this, he immediately knew that there was something that had been whispered to him. Once they left, First Lady immediately slapped him. Young Master Xue was stunned for a long time.


    "You, you hit me. Since I was young, no one has ever dared to hit me. You actually dare to hit me!" The Young Master Xue was enraged, he glared at the First Lady and cursed: "If it wasn''t for the fact that you are a woman, I would kill you immediately!"


    "Yo, what big words you have there." The First Lady was not afraid. He stared at the Young Master Xue and spoke each word: "You have destroyed my Rong Er''s entire life, so much that a slap from me would be considered light. Do you really think that I can''t do anything to you?"


    When Young Master Xue saw the killing intent and hatred in First Lady''s eyes, he could not help but become afraid. He had often seen many ruthless people rolling around in the pile of women, and when some women go crazy, they could do anything! He said forcefully, "What did I do to your daughter? Madame, it was your daughter, GOUYIN, who approached me. I am a normal man, so what''s wrong with me doing that? "


    "Bullshit, you''re saying that I, Rong Er, have taken the initiative to approach you? Even if you don''t think about what you are, Rong Er would only take the initiative if he was blind! " The First Lady scoffed as he drew closer to the Young Master Xue. "I hope you can shut your mouth about you and Rong Er. Otherwise, I''ll tell His Majesty about you and the other concubines in the imperial backyard. How do you think His Majesty will judge you?"


    "You!" Young Master Xue was really afraid of this, his face was pale white. Even if the empress dowager doted on your nephew, the empress dowager wouldn''t be able to protect him if the woman who slept with him in the zodiac got out!


    "Hmph." The First Lady snorted coldly. If he had to blame something, he would have to blame his lecherousness. The women outside were not enough for her to toy with yet he was still thinking about the emperor''s women. He deserved someone to have a weakness for him.


    After grabbing onto Young Master Xue, the First Lady asked with a gentle tone: "You said that Rong Er took the initiative to stick it in front of you?"


    Young Master Xue''s attitude was completely different from before. He immediately tried to curry favor with Yue Yang, "That''s right, based on my many years of experience, I''m afraid that she has been infected with aphrodisiac!"


    This time, First Lady almost died of anger. "You clearly know that Rong Er was infected with the aphrodisiac, and yet you still insulted her. You ¡­"


    "Madame, I was wrong, I was wrong, when I thought of nothing else ¡­" "I deserve to die, I deserve to die ¡­" Young Master Xue saw that the situation was not looking good and laughed: "Madame, I think that whoever gave Miss Rong the YAO was the culprit."


    When the First Lady left, he spat at her back. The wives actually dared to threaten him, he wanted to see how he would deal with her when he had the chance.


    When First Lady returned, Xi Wan Rong was already awake. The servant girl was dressing her up, and the moment she saw her, she pounced on her: "mother ¡­. Where did you go, Rong Er didn''t see you being so scared ¡­ "


    "Go down." The First Lady ordered the servant girl to go down first, and only waited for the two people before asking with a stern face: "Rong Er, mother asks you, did the medicine I gave you last night have any effect on Xi Jiu Er?"

 C83

    "That''s right. Your daughter saw with her own eyes that she drank a cup of wine and did not lie. Your daughter waited for an hour without seeing any movement and then came to find mother ¡­ mother, is there a problem? " Xi Wan Rong suddenly realized something, when she thought back, she felt that it was strange, why did she suddenly do such a thing? Someone must have done something to her.


    "No matter what problems mother has to deal with ¡­" First Lady comforted her daughter, and started plotting with Xi Wan Feng.


    "Good, good. I''ve really underestimated this slut. Normally, I''ve never seen her do anything good, but she actually did so many things ¡­" The First Lady said with a dark expression.


    "mother, mother ¡­" Xi Wan Feng frowned: "mother thinks that Xi Jiu Er did it? "Last night, the woman already felt that something was strange. Since little sister saw her drink it, why was there no effect?"


    First Lady secretly hated himself for being negligent, he actually allowed this little bitch Xi Jiu Er to take advantage of him. He coldly snorted: "What''s so strange about this, there''s actually a flaw in any plan! However, it might not be her, but she was the most suspicious one ¡­ As for why she was able to escape, I am also confused! "


    "mother, do you think that the person beside little sister Rong gave out some heartless and unscrupulous thing?" Xi Wan Feng asked in a daze: "Will there be people secretly helping Xi Jiu Er? Or maybe Xi Jiu Er had bribed someone and already knew our whereabouts! "


    Who knows, Rong Er said that the pill did not go through anyone''s hands, which is strange! First Lady was puzzled, and warned Xi Wan Feng in the end.


    "Feng''er, you are someone who wants to do great things, don''t restrict your hours. I will naturally have a way to take care of a little bitch like Xi Jiu Er, so just study properly with peace of mind. mother will give you a chance to amaze everyone with one brilliant move." The First Lady said solemnly: "mother cannot let our hard work be destroyed."


    "Yes." Xi Wan Feng''s mood improved a little, when the First Lady left, her obedient and virtuous face immediately drooped, her eyes filled with malice. She hated Xi Jiu Er, and similarly hated her own mother. If she hadn''t been careless, without Xi Jiu Er watching her, how could such a thing have happened?


    Xi Wan Feng''s face was extremely stiff, he ordered his personal servant to call Ling Er over, and had her help him take a bath. Ling''er''s body trembled slightly. After the door closed, she seemed to have seen Xi Wan Rong''s wise and understanding face become twisted, and she slowly walked towards Xi Wan Feng.


    She was the target of Xi Wan Feng''s torture, and every time he tortured her, her body and mind would not be able to bear it. Now she was even more intense, she felt that she wouldn''t be able to live for long, she would be tortured to death by the Miss.


    "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get over here!" Under the candlelight, Xi Wan Feng''s face was exceptionally twisted with hatred, it looked extremely terrifying, just like a ghost''s gaze, making it hard to look straight at.


    This was the so-called first talented girl outside. This was the Great Miss where everyone spoke benevolently, knew how to read and act courteously, and was considerate towards servants? Only Ling''er knew how repulsive and disgusting the Great Miss was.


    "Yes ~ ~ ~" Ling''er''s body shuddered instinctively. It was as if her wounds from before had started to burn up again. Slowly moving to Xi Wan Feng''s side, Xi Wan Feng took off the hairpin.


    Indeed! Trembling, Ling''er took off her skirt to reveal her back. Without a word, Xi Wan Feng stuck her back up, causing Ling''er to cry from the pain. For the sake of her own reputation, the Great Miss had always used this move, so no one would be able to see her injuries.


    "AHH!"


    After piercing into Xi Wan Feng''s face, it immediately became crazy. It scolded him while clenching its fists: "Slut, slut, you will die a horrible death! You will die a horrible death!" Not only did he curse her, he even insulted her with filth.


    Finally, Xi Wan Feng''s expression calmed down, and fell to the side while gasping for breath due to fatigue, but the hatred in her eyes did not decrease at all, as she would properly settle this debt with Xi Jiu Er.


    "Take it." Xi Wan Feng took off the hairpin on her head and gave it to Ling''er, who put on a new set of clothes and silently put it away, then respectfully left the room with no change in her expression. She knew that if this matter were to be found out by others, the Great Miss and the First Lady would definitely not let her live.


    The next morning, First Lady went to find Xi Jiu Er, and laughed: "Did you sleep well last night?" Looking at Xi Jiu Er''s spirited little face, she asked.


    Isn''t this nonsense? Of course she sleeps well, First Lady''s most beloved daughter has lost her most precious treasure, of course she was very happy, she had never protected herself before, but now that she has the ability, the time to suppress them has come, she has to torture her little by little, First Lady, the bastard between you and your most beloved man, I will destroy you little by little, and everything about you, these are all my mother''s.


    "Hehe, mother, take a seat." Xi Jiu Er helped the First Lady to sit down. Oh?


    The First Lady did not refuse and sat down, and went straight to the point: "mother is asking you, did you find any clues about Rong Er happening? Rong Er must have been bewitched by some medicine. "


    Xi Jiu Er pretended to think about it for a while before saying, "mother, I''m not clear about this daughter. I only know that Elder Sister Rong has lost her temper after coming back, and it seems that Big Sister Feng has provoked her ¡­ The other daughters do not know. "


    Feng''er? Could this have something to do with Feng Er? First Lady''s mind was in a mess, and he did not know what to do. First Lady received an ambiguous answer, but this answer was something First Lady believed. Sometimes the more vague the answer you give, the more she believes it to be true.


    Once they left, Xi Jiu Er was so unhappy that she wanted to bring Liu Xiang out for a stroll.


    "Do you want to live ¡­"


    "Ling''er, don''t you dare let your imagination run wild ¡­"


    "It''s true that you''ve never tasted that feeling before. I, I can''t stand it ¡­"


    "Why don''t you marry her? Sister-in-law Zhang is here to spy on me, and has the intention of marrying you to her son."


    "Sister Zhang?" Her son? "


    "Yeah, although he is shorter and uglier, at least he has someone to rely on."


    "It''s impossible to marry him. The Great Miss will arrange a random reason for me to serve him again. At that time, my days will be more or less the same as now! "I don''t want to ¡­" Hearing the despair in her voice, he guessed that she was in the mood to die.


    On the seventh day of reciting the scripture, Xi Wan Rong didn''t know if she was thinking too much, but she felt that there was something wrong with the way the people around her looked at her, and they would even lower their heads and whisper from time to time. It made her feel insecure, as if all her secrets had been discovered by others. She was extremely happy for Xi Jiu Er. Young Master Xue would never come and disturb her again, every day she would look at him like a bedbug waving in front of her eyes. It was really annoying!


    How could she possibly introduce the Young Master Xue to Xi Jiu Er after she found out about the relationship between the two?


    The young master and Madame that he met outside the door that day were personally received by the host. His attitude was very respectful, and it was likely that he was someone of some background. Xi Hong Sheng clearly wanted to get close to the other party, but every time she would be hit by a nose full of dust, and in the end, she would bitterly return. Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and smiled. If Xi Hong Sheng knew that the other party had found out that Xi Wan Rong and Young Master Xue were in the side room ¡­ And only cold, will it not be very angry?


    Seven days later, the people of Xi Family returned to Xi Mansion, and the next day, Xi Hong Sheng''s cousin, Master Zhong''s son and daughter came! The Xi Family and the side families had an uncivilized rule. The two families would find a time to bring the children of the two families over to the other family''s residence to play for a while, which would strengthen the relationship between the younger generations and strengthen the relationship between the two families in the future.


    There was no need to mention that the ideas of the previous generation were very good. This way, a marriage alliance would be beneficial. Zhong Family seemed to be wealthier than Xi Family, but Xi Family was actually a level more powerful. The two families gradually came to a tacit understanding and stopped interacting with each other no matter what, and now that Xi Jiu Er had taken the initiative to approach them ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er had done such a big thing and the rewards from the palace had not come down yet, but in the eyes of those who know, the slower the rewards were going to come in, the bigger it would get! Right now, many people in the Xi Family started to curry favor with, who had already become the topic of discussion for the wives in the upper echelons. Although Xi Jiu Er''s family did not have a mother, their dowry was extremely generous. Just with the Wei Guogong Palace, it was already a huge sum. And now that she had received the favor of His Majesty, whoever became Xi Jiu Er''s husband, her career in the future would be much smoother.


    Thus, Master Zhong and his wife had this plan. Being able to marry Xi Jiu Er was their main goal. Therefore, he repeatedly reminded Zhong Tang Jun that he must definitely win Xi Jiu Er''s favor. When had this Zhong Tang Jun heard what his parents said? He only thought about it and wondered how the number one beauty and first talented girl would look like after not seeing her for a few years.


    As for Xi Jiu Er, his memories didn''t look too good, and her temper wasn''t very good either! She didn''t want a woman like that as her wife.


    First Lady was very clear about Zhong Family''s intentions. He welcomed Zhong Tang Jun and Zhong Yue He to stay together with them for a few days. The insolent Young Master Xue had the Empress Dowager as his backing. Zhong Tang Jun only had the Zhong Family, and the Zhong Family was not considered a famous person in the capital. He only had some silver.


    Zhong Tang Jun''s handsomeness had a graceful air to it. Instead of the girl''s handsomeness, Zhong Yue He was a little more valiant and overbearing, and looked a little more like her father. Xi Jiu Er''s heart was as clear as a mirror. This Zhong Family suddenly calling Zhong Tang Jun and Zhong Yue He here had only one goal, which was to get them to marry each other.


    Xi Wan Rong and Xi Family had other uses, but she ¡­ When Xi Jiu Er found out about this news, she immediately ordered the Wei Guogong Palace to deliver a message, and in a while, the Wei Guogong sent someone to pick Xi Jiu Er up. After playing in Wei Guogong for two days, she felt that it was appropriate and returned home.

 C85

    After what happened to Yun Juan, she died the next night. First Lady slapped the table and said angrily: "It must be that little bitch Zhong Family who did it." After a while, someone from the Zhong Family said that Miss Zhong was not feeling well and wanted to return. First Lady sneered: "I''ll go back then." It saved her the trouble of looking at it.


    Zhong Family and Xi Family had always wanted to switch shuttles, which also meant that the two sides'' youngsters would have to walk together, which had increased the relationship between the two families.


    Zhong Yue He and Xi Tang Jun were in the same carriage, while Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wan Rong were in the same carriage, Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wu Er were in the same carriage, so this arrangement was made for Xi Wan Feng to explain the rules more, so as to not let Xi Wu Er make a fool of herself. Xi Wu Er was born from a concubine, so there were only a handful of things that needed to be done to leave the house, so she would listen to whatever Xi Wan Feng said. This would allow them to plot against Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Wan Feng would be able to take care of Xi Wu Er''s plans while she was in the carriage.


    Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wan Rong started to bicker again on the carriage, this time Xi Wan Feng repeatedly reminded Xi Wan Rong to speak less, Xi Jiu Er was smart, if she saw any clues, what would she do? As a result, Xi Jiu Er mocked her a few times before she endured it.


    She was able to keep her composure today, so someone must have warned her. Xi Jiu Er calculated in her heart, then looked at the huge bag in Xi Wan Rong''s hands and laughed: "Elder Sister Rong, what are those things you''re carrying inside."


    When Xi Wan Rong heard her obvious ridicule, he nearly lost his temper. He panted a few times before saying, "What does it matter to you?"


    "I heard that the Prince Xian seems to be a guest at a branch of the Xi Family!" He knew that Xi Wan Rong liked his. It was too obvious that even a blind person could feel it. She intentionally said: "I don''t know who will become Prince Xian''s wife with that looks."


    "Shut up, that person is definitely not you." Xi Wan Rong was so happy that he looked like something when he heard her, but when he heard her words, his expression immediately changed. This little bitch Xi Jiu Er also looked in the mirror to see what kind of virtue she had, and only a woman like her was compatible with the Prince Xian.


    "Why are you in such a hurry Elder Sister Rong? Could it be that you like Prince Xian?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows in shock, "Someone like Prince Xian is not your portrait, stop daydreaming."


    "None of your business!" Xi Wan Rong was so angry that he wanted to go over and fight with Xi Jiu Er, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. Xi Jiu Er, don''t be happy too early, you will have time to cry later!


    Something is wrong, something is definitely wrong! Xi Jiu Er bellowed, the one who came with her this time was Liu Shui, if something were to happen, Liu Shui''s abilities would probably be used to protect her. Originally, she wanted to bring ex-sister-in-law with her, but she could not leave the shop. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng had also brought Xi Wu Er there, and that was thought-provoking, so based on her intuition, there was probably something, and it was definitely not a good thing for it to happen, so she brought Liu Shui along.


    It was already night time in Master''s residence. Madam''s meal had allowed a few people to rest. It had to be said that Master was indeed richer than Xi Mansion, but look at this residence! After Xi Jiu Er tidied herself up, she laid on the bed and told Liu Shui: "This time, the Xi Family sisters are probably going to make some moves, you have to be careful."


    Liu Shui nodded his head: "Don''t worry Miss, Liu Shui will definitely protect Miss by himself."


    "Knock knock knock ¡­" Outside the door, an old granny said: "Has Miss Jiu Er fallen asleep yet?"


    "No, please come in mother." After adjusting his appearance, Xi Jiu Er led Liu Shui to the door, where he saw an old woman sitting at the entrance. Behind her were Xi Wu Er and his servant, Long Er. There weren''t any extra rooms left, so they just let the two of them stay together.


    old mother felt that this Nine Miss had done a lot more things than the number one beauty or the first talented girl, and she was also very grateful to the Ninth Miss. If not for Ninth Miss''s small pox, she was afraid that she would have been separated from her son forever.


    Xi Wu Er smiled embarrassedly: "Sorry to bother you, Ninth Sis!"


    "What are you saying!?" We''re all sisters. " It was as if Xi Wu Er had already forgotten about it when he pointed out that Xi Jiu Er was the person who poisoned him, causing him to be on guard.


    They all slept well at night, and the plot was about to unfold. Other than Xi Wan Rong and Mu Qiu Shui who were tossing and turning, one wanted to sleep, the other wanted to sleep. The sky gradually brightened as the servants started to get busy. Other than the lazy Xi Wan Rong who liked to sleep, everyone else woke up rather early. In the end, it was Xi Wan Feng who carried Mu Qiu Shui, Xi Wan Rong and Bara, and got up.


    After everyone had their breakfast, they went to Madam. Madam was a gentle, generous, and matriarchal woman, her dress was very particular, and they really wanted to ask why this kind of woman was so cunning and despotic. It was probably the spoiled Miss again.


    Madam had a very good impression of Xi Jiu Er after they met each other. Putting aside the things that Xi Jiu Er had done to save the people, just by looking at her disposition, one could tell that she was the best out of the four Miss s. Then, she looked at Xi Wan Rong, mm... She was beautiful, but when looking at her beautiful appearance, one would feel that it was boring. Although the Heavenly Empire''s first talented girl looked a little inferior, she had a lot of charm, and she liked to look at Xi Wu Er. In the end, no matter which one she looked at, they would not catch her eye.


    Madam then gave them a greeting gift. According to her identity, Xi Wu Er was definitely lacking a bit, but she was still happy inside, after all she was born from a concubine.


    Although his own family was not the same as ours, that Xi Mansion was still not inferior to Xi Wan Rong at all. Just by looking at how Xi Wan Rong obtained the number one beauty in the world, he could tell from her that he was proud of her, and looked down on her and her underlings.


    "This is'' Wang Palace Pavilion ''. From here, we can see the emperor''s imperial study ¡­"


    "This is the Green Jade Lake. The mother spent a large amount of money to make the workers spend three months to build it ¡­"


    "This is the Roundhouse..." Ah, maidservant greets Prince Xian. " Suddenly, a man wearing a blue robe appeared at the corner of the corridor. His jade-like face was like a rainbow, and he didn''t seem like lead. His every movement made it seem as though he was an immortal that had never stained the mortal world. Xi Wan Rong was already dumbstruck by what he saw ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er pouted and bowed along with the rest, thinking to herself, how can a man be more beautiful than women? It was unreasonable. Suddenly, she thought of Sun Kong Ming''s disciple, ''Xiao Feng''... Prince Xian''s lazy voice could be heard: "Hey, you guys came as well."


    "maidservant is so happy to see His Highness." Xi Wan Rong couldn''t help but ask. The word "infatuated" was written all over his face and Zhong Yue He sputtered in his heart, what the hell is this? She was the one who thought of this idea even though he was pretty like the Prince Xian.


    Prince Xian only gave her a nonchalant glance, and in the end, her gaze landed on Xi Jiu Er. When Xi Wan Rong saw that the Prince Xian did not look at him but only at Xi Jiu Er, he was extremely jealous. He was just about to say something to the Prince Xian, "You guys can play by yourselves, I''m leaving!"


    Shui Xian also did not see that, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was boring, and as Shui Xian was good, she would definitely give a good beating to those who were greedy for Mu Qiu Shui. That way, she would be able to see Xi Wan Rong and Shui Xian arguing and cursing people.


    In the end, he stood together with Xi Wan Feng and gave her a meaningful glance. Xi Wan Feng still understood his sister, but he shook his head fiercely. No, this pill was meant for Xi Jiu Er, so she couldn''t use it on herself.


    "Sister ~ ~ ~" Xi Wan Rong bit his lips and waited for the night.


    Zhong Yue He''s introduction was extremely lively and showy, but the few of them had already thought of something! After they finished strolling around the beautiful scenery of the mansion, everyone sat down to eat tea and chat. Zhong Yue He said that he would find a production team for everyone to listen to during the night.


    At night... Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng and the other two quickly looked at each other, as if they were trying to pass something to each other. Xi Jiu Er lifted the teacup, calculating that it was definitely aimed at himself.


    In the afternoon, all the girls sat down to eat together. The Madam did not leave any traces behind as she looked at the four Miss s. She couldn''t help but look towards Xi Jiu Er, if only she could be her daughter-in-law. This son of hers was too fickle. It was time for her to get married and take care of things. With just a glance, Xi Wan Rong could tell that she had been spoiled badly by the Great Miss, hence, she didn''t look too suitable.


    This Miss had a lot of ways to go, and she was extremely generous. There was also a Wei Guogong behind her, and everyone knew that the Wei Guogong doted on this granddaughter of hers ¡­ Furthermore, Xi Jiu Er had even offered good fortune to the common folk of the capital. The Emperor even said that he admired her greatly.


    Madam felt that it was more and more feasible, so she liked Xi Jiu Er the more she looked at him. Zhong Yue He looked at mother and smiled, and more or less guessed something, Xi Jiu Er did not reject or hate him, if it was her own sister-in-law, then she would not oppose it.


    In the afternoon, the house began to set up stage, the kitchen began to prepare food, is always very busy right now! Xi Wu Er found an opportunity to pull Xi Jiu Er to a place with no one around and whispered, "Ninth Sister, there''s something I don''t know whether or not I should tell you."


    It''s a good show, Cairo! Xi Jiu Er pretended to be curious: "What''s the matter? Look at your serious face, did something happen? "


    Xi Wu Er made Liu Shui and Long Er retreat a distance away before saying in a low voice, "I, I just saw Elder Sister Rong sending Si Ping to find Prince Xian, inviting him to meet by the lake. What do you think I should do about this?"


    Xi Wu Er was good at pretending to be pitiful and sniffling. At this time, he started to cry quietly: "What about Jiu Er?"


    "How do I know what to do? How can I stop her when she does things? " Xi Jiu Er''s attitude was completely indifferent, and looking at Xi Wu Er''s indiscernible body, he suddenly paused for a moment, and then sneered.


    "We didn''t know so it''s fine. We knew we would go and stop them, but if someone saw a daughter of the Elder Sister Rong, they would definitely gossip and ask for an appointment at the Prince Xian. Do you know that Elder Sister Rong likes the Prince Xian? What if something happens and the mother scolds them? " Xi Wu Er was in a hurry, as if he was at a loss of what to do.

 C86

    He, his acting has grown quite a bit! Xi Jiu Er followed through with her thought and asked: "What is Sister Wu thinking?" She purposely revealed a look of trust towards Xi Wu Er''s words, and hesitated as if she was afraid of being punished by the First Lady.


    It was a pity that Xi Wu Er was wholeheartedly waiting to see it for Xi Jiu Er. How could he have known that Xi Jiu Er was actually afraid of the First Lady? If Xi Jiu Er was really afraid, why did First Lady mention her with a face full of clenched teeth? Xi Wu Er was already completely careless, he only said: "This is the only way, how about we go and find a reason for Elder Sister Rong to come back?"


    Xi Jiu Er said somewhat unwillingly: "If you call for yourself, I won''t go. Maybe she''ll even call me bad news for her." What Xi Jiu Er said was very true, Xi Wu Er forced out a smile: "But we can''t leave the Elder Sister Rong alone there, it''s said that each of us will suffer losses at the same time, at that time, if the Elder Sister Rong does something out of line, the reputation of the women in our Xi Family will also be ruined."


    "It''s rare for you to understand this logic." Xi Jiu Er said with a smile that was not a smile: "Since you say so, then let''s go take a look."


    Xi Wu Er felt that Xi Jiu Er''s words were hinting at something. Could it be that she already knew of something? Impossible ¡­ She pinched the medicine in her bosom. It was a type of knockout medicine, a type of tasteless knockout medicine. When she knocked people out, she would call a manservant over, and then ¡­ Hehe, tomorrow, the entire capital will have a rumor that Xi Family and the servant will do shameless things to each other. Hahaha ¡­ See how Xi Jiu Er explained it.


    After walking a few steps, Xi Wu Er instructed the two servants, "Don''t follow them, when the time comes, more people will attract more attention."


    Liu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er, who blinked his eyes at sher, indicating her to follow his orders. You just wait here, I''ll be right back. " With that said, he followed Xi Wu Er to the lakeside.


    Because the residence was very busy, and this was a remote place, no one would come here. After looking around for a while, Xi Jiu Er said, "Sister Wu, why didn''t I see the Elder Sister Rong you were talking about?


    "How could I be wrong? "I clearly saw it just now ¡­" Without waiting for a trace, she touched the medicinal powder and her body flew up with a bang, rolling into the lake. Before she could even regain her senses, she saw that Liu Shui, who was next to Xi Jiu Er, had entered the place unknowingly! Her expression immediately turned even uglier than that of a pig''s liver.


    "Aiya, Sister Wu, why did you fall into the water so perfectly fine ¡­" Xi Jiu Er revealed a surprised expression, as if she did not know what Liu Shui was doing in the slightest, which made Xi Wu Er suspicious. Could it be that Xi Jiu Er really did not know that it was her subordinates who had done it?


    "It''s nothing. It''s just that my foot slipped ¡­" Xi Wu Er did not laugh under the skin, he struggled and tried to get up, but he was kicked by Liu Shui once again. Xi Wu Er shouted: "Liu Shui, what are you doing?"


    "Heh, Sister Wu is really capable now. My servant girl even dares to shout. She really has the First Lady backing her up, do you think you are fearless?" Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "You and First Lady are trying to skin, you better be careful not to be eaten till there''s nothing left."


    "You, I don''t know what you''re talking about." Xi Jiu Er''s smile was too cold, too ruthless, this was a look Xi Wu Er had never seen before, it was also the Xi Jiu Er she had never seen before.


    "I don''t know. Hur Hur, I don''t know. Just pretend that I didn''t say anything. I''ve already said everything!" Thinking of how she was a pitiful concubinage, begging for survival, she gave Xi Wu Er one last chance. If Xi Wu Er dared to kill her again, that would be too courteous.


    Xi Wu Er unwillingly watched Xi Jiu Er''s figure gradually grow further and further away, she was clenching her teeth so hard that blood was about to come out. It was as though if she continued to use her power on Xi Jiu Er, the servant girl called Liu Shui would definitely not let her off! It was unknown whether it was because of the water or because of Xi Jiu Er''s imposing aura, but she shivered all over.


    She did not complete the mission, but with Liu Shui here, it would be hard for her to do anything. Xi Jiu Er casually said as she passed by Long Er: "Sister Wu has fallen into the water, quickly go and take a look." Then, he brought Liu Shui and indifferently left.


    Long Er immediately went over to look at Xi Wu Er, and discovered her coldly trembling in the water. She was greatly shocked: "Miss, are you alright?"


    "Shouting so loudly for fear others won''t know?" Xi Wu Er bellowed with a suppressed voice, scaring Long Er to the point where he did not dare say anything else. He immediately went to find a stick to drag her, Xi Wu Er, up.


    "Miss, what do we do? You''re all wet ¡­" Long Er said.


    "Shut up. Go to my room and get me a change of clothes. Remember not to let anyone else see it, or we''ll be in big trouble. Do you know that?" Xi Wu Er threatened Long Er: "If you can''t even handle such a small matter, I''ll skin you alive later."


    "Yes ~ ~" Long Er trembled in fear. He thought that Miss had a gentle personality, but unexpectedly, his temper was not any worse than Miss Rong''s. Long Er placed Xi Wu Er inside the fake mountain, then jogged over to the side room. Although he did not know what had happened, Long Er knew that it was definitely related to the Ninth Miss.


    On the other side, Xi Jiu Er had gotten lost with Liu Shui. Which of the three paths should she choose? Just as Xi Jiu Er was hesitating, a figure suddenly appeared from behind a rock at the side of his body. Liu Shui instantly threw a backhand slap, but was easily dodged by the man.


    "Let go." Xi Jiu Er shouted angrily. Bastard Mu Qiu Shui, after eating so much that he had nothing to do, you actually started to play Lecher. The magnificent figure behind her and the powerful heartbeat that explained it made her cheeks redden slightly.


    "Haha ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui laughed and slowly extended his hand to pinch Xi Jiu Er''s waist, "Miss Jiu Er, we are really fated to meet."


    Fate my ass! Xi Jiu Er immediately said far away from him, "This little girl doesn''t feel that fate has brought us together. Liu Shui, let''s go!" Just as he walked a few steps, he heard him say, "Xi Wan Rong came in your name to find me, and asked me to meet with you."


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Mu Qiu Shui with an unfathomable gaze: "Looks like this is just like flying luck to me, why is the prince still standing here, quickly go take a look, that''s the number one beauty, there are so many men salivating, I didn''t expect you to take advantage of me in the end." From the looks of it, Xi Wan Rong had spent all his resources and blocked her reputation.


    He really didn''t feel that there was anything good about Mu Qiu Shui, it was just that he was pretty, but his heart was as cunning as a fox. This Xi Wan Rong was deceived by his looks. Didn''t he know that the more beautiful something was, the more poisonous it would be?


    "Why don''t we go and have a look?" Mu Qiu Shui raised his brows, "I gave that slip of paper to Zhong Tang Jun ¡­ Let the servant tell him that this was given to her by the Great Miss Feng ¡­ "


    "What?" Xi Jiu Er was startled, but then she laughed: "My prince, how are you so sure that this matter will develop according to your prediction?" Since Mu Qiu Shui was going to do this, it was most likely something that he was confident of. Since Zhong Tang Jun liked the Great Miss, she had long seen through his personality ¡­ When did Mu Qiu Shui see through it?


    "Hehe, let''s go and watch the show." Mu Qiu Shui laughed like Xi Jiu Er, with a mischievous smile, while Xi Jiu Er pouted and said: "If you want to go, then go. They are my prey, and today, they have been attacked by the Prince. I am not happy, and do not want to go see."


    Mu Qiu Shui was startled: "Can''t I help you?"


    "Not good." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Mu Qiu Shui thought for a while and said: "How about this, let''s just treat this like I don''t know, all of this is your credit okay?" After a pause, he said earnestly, "Sometimes, we can only look at the results when doing things. The process is no longer important."


    Yes, sometimes it just depends on the result. The process really isn''t important, so what''s the harm in being able to achieve the goal? He didn''t know what was wrong with him, but he felt it was strange. "Let''s go," he said, shaking off his unfathomable emotions. "Tell us exactly how you did it."


    "I didn''t really do anything, I merely knocked Xi Wan Feng unconscious. When Zhong Tang Jun came back, I gave him an aphrodisiac ¡­ That''s all. " Mu Qiu Shui laughed and told Liu Shui, who was behind, not to follow. She was going to watch a play with Xi Jiu Er.


    Liu Shui saw that his Miss had agreed to it and turned to leave!


    "You sure know a person. This girl''s skills are only higher than Shui Xian''s. How did you meet her?" There was another meaning to Mu Qiu Shui''s words, but unfortunately, Xi Jiu Er did not understand, as Mu Qiu Shui had been speaking in a very weird tone the entire time. His nice words made him speak in a disorderly manner, to the point where he did not know what he wanted to express.


    "Why are you still talking nonsense? Let''s go and watch the show." Xi Jiu Er said impatiently.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked deeply at her before hugging her waist and leaping into the air. He was so shocked that he almost started screaming, he immediately covered his mouth and glared fiercely at Mu Qiu Shui. How infuriating.


    Mu Qiu Shui almost laughed out loud, following that, the two of them went to a remote corner, and after hearing the voices of the male and female reaching their peak, Mu Qiu Shui curled his lips and said: Tch, what man is this, what technique is this? Seeing the disdain in Mu Qiu Shui''s eyes, Xi Jiu Er also laughed coldly.


    "I''m very powerful." Mu Qiu Shui immediately tried to defend herself.


    "It''s none of my business if you''re that strong." Xi Jiu Er blushed and spat at Mu Qiu Shui. This shameless man was too shameless. She made Mu Qiu Shui smile.


    Inside the room... Xi Wan Feng felt his entire body becoming sore, he did not know what happened, but he opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling: "Where is this?"

 C87

    Then, Xi Wan Feng saw a naked man lying beside her. She almost screamed out loud when she felt a burst of pain in her body, as if she had slipped into an ice cellar. She was in despair. She was covered in bruises and it was obvious what had happened.


    She didn''t care about why she was here. She didn''t care who this man was as she quietly and quickly put on her dress. She was so sore that she almost cried. There was no need to think to know who would design her, Xi Jiu Er?


    "Ugh ¡­" "Beautiful ¡­" The man flipped over his body, and when Xi Wan Feng saw the man in front of him, he almost screamed in respect. Anger, resentment, shame all rushed to his head, and only one sentence remained in his head: It''s Zhong Tang Jun!


    She wanted to scream crazily, but she couldn''t. She would attract others, and by then, her entire life would be ruined! Who did this to her, and who was it? Wasn''t it supposed to be Xi Jiu Er that slept with Zhong Tang Jun? Why did it become his?


    No matter what, Xi Wan Feng would never let him off, he would tear the person who harmed him into a thousand pieces, so that he would never be able to reincarnate! She put on her clothes and rushed out of the door. When she finally turned around to look at the soundly asleep Zhong Tang Jun, she could not help but have red eyes.


    Today''s humiliation would be repaid many times over! She tidied up her clothes and hair accessories in panic, looking left and right for fear of being caught. Fortunately, the mansion was quite busy today, so she didn''t run into anyone along the way! After she left, he heard the servant scream, "Master... what happened to you?"


    She was so shocked that her body trembled, she immediately went to the side room to knock on the door, and after knocking for a while, she saw that her servant, Mu Xi, was almost screaming.


    Mu Xi frantically closed the door, and turned to face Xi Wan Feng with a slap: "How come I only opened the door after knocking for so long, are you seeking death?"


    "I''m sorry Miss, I thought you were inside the house ¡­ You, why did you run outside? " Mu Xi covered her face in shock. Didn''t Miss just rest in the house? Why did she run outside again? She thought she saw a ghost.


    "Go, get me a basin of water to wipe my body ¡­" "Don''t alert the others ¡­" Xi Wan Feng threatened fiercely: "If I find out that you''ve left, I''ll kill you immediately."


    "Yes, Servant will go get some water now." Mu Xi was so scared that his body shivered and he quickly went to get water. Xi Wan Feng immediately found a new dress and took off the dress he was wearing, causing her to scream in pain. Shouting the blood on her dress, her eyes turned red ¡­ Just who was it, was it Xi Jiu Er that little bitch!


    Wrong... Based on the current situation, Xi Jiu Er should have been held up by Xi Wu Er... Could it be that she wasn''t able to stall it? Without thinking about anything else, Xi Wan Feng placed the dress in the pot and burned it with fire. Mu Xi caught a whiff of the smell of the smoke when he entered, "Cough, cough ¡­"


    "Miss!" Seeing the scars on her Miss''s body, even a fool would be able to understand what was happening. Oh my god! Could it be that the Miss was pushed away by the Flower Harvester?


    "What are you still standing there for!" Xi Wan Feng scolded, he almost screamed.


    Mu Xi immediately dried the kernels s and scrubbed Xi Wan Feng''s body. Xi Wan Feng painfully bit his own flesh, wishing that he could tear that person into ten thousand pieces. At this time, he reckoned that Xi Wan Rong and Prince Xian were probably having fun together. It was truly unfair. Why did I have to endure the trampling of such a man as Zhong Tang Jun, and for Xi Wan Rong to be together with such a beautiful man in the Prince Xian?


    After scrubbing his body, Mu Xi helped Xi Wan Feng put on a robe, tied up his hair once again, and put on makeup. After tidying up properly, Xi Wan Feng stared at herself in the copper mirror and suddenly felt that she was no longer that clean person. She had already been tainted by Zhong Tang Jun.


    "Humph!" Xi Wan Rong suddenly pushed the door open and sat down in rage: "I stared for more than an hour and he still hasn''t come!" With his heart filled with joy, Xi Wan Rong was so infuriated that he almost died in defeat.


    "What did you say?" Xi Wan Feng was shocked, she felt that she had been played by someone, staring at Mu Xi, she understood that if she dared to say a single word, then she would not be able to return alive.


    "Elder sister, what''s wrong?" Xi Wan Rong realized that something was wrong with Xi Wan Feng, and she couldn''t quite put her finger on what was the difference.


    Xi Wan Feng said in a slightly embarrassed manner: "Nothing, I just slept for a while and was a little confused. You said just now that Prince Xian did not come? I''m afraid there''s something wrong with the Prince Xian ¡­ I wonder how Xi Wu Er''s situation is, and whether he has completed his task? " She felt like a naked person right now. In broad daylight, she had done something shameful ¡­ He could not let Xi Wan Rong see any clues, so she immediately changed the topic, afraid that he would be discovered.


    "Hmph, if there''s no news about him this time, then it''s definitely going to be a waste." Xi Wan Rong laughed coldly: "Elder sister, everything depends on us. Xi Wu Er is not Xi Jiu Er''s opponent." She knew more or less the people she had always disagreed with. But ¡ª Xi Wu Er really did not send any news, on the contrary, it was just another news.


    This news was extremely ridiculous, thinking that someone had actually used medicine to do something naughty with Zhong Tang Jun ¡­ This immediately became a rare occurrence in the mansion! Then, Zhong Yue He began to look for someone! Zhong Tang Jun was also woken up by someone, he asked him if something bad had happened between him and Shui. Zhong Tang Jun only said one sentence: "It''s Xi Family, I don''t know who it is anymore."


    With a ''boom'', the Xi Family became the laughingstock of everyone in the mansion. They didn''t expect the Xi Family s to be so shameless as to want men to use medicine.


    "Elder sister, who do you think it is?" Xi Wan Rong looked at Xi Wan Feng in astonishment: "Could it be Xi Jiu Er? It would be great if it really was Xi Jiu Er. This man is too perverted and flowery! If Xiu Er marries him, he will definitely not have a good life. "


    "Yes, it''s possible." Xi Wan Feng''s face turned white, and barely forced out a smile. Xi Wan Rong didn''t notice her abnormality, but she started to get excited. Who exactly was it, it was either Xi Jiu Er or Xi Wu Er, the two bitches? Only Mu Xi noticed and spoke out, his heart was in shock, could it be that the Zhong Family and him ¡­ Was it the Miss? The Miss was aloof and proud, he would definitely not do such a thing, could it be that the Young Master was using medicine?


    Since he was the Xi Family, Zhong Yue He immediately went to find the various Miss s. Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wu Er were in the house, and the two nearby rooms, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Rong, were also in the house! The way Zhong Yue He saw them, the way they looked at her, especially Xi Wu Er, he felt that she had these kinds of thoughts in her head.


    She knew what her own brother was thinking. mother had warned her many times to keep him away from beauties that she had to keep a good eye on him. She did not allow him to flirt outside her room, so she kept a strict eye on him. Such a man would not marry a wise woman.


    Looking at Xi Jiu Er, without a doubt, her status was the highest amongst them. Wei Guogong''s granddaughter would inherit everything in the future, and right now he was also highly favored by His Majesty.


    It was the first time that a talented girl like Xi Wan Feng had such an arrogant and proud heart. From the first moment Zhong Tang Jun had seen her, he had thought that she was interested in her, but she had rejected him away, so why would he take the initiative to throw himself into her arms?


    Xi Wan Rong, the number one beauty. Zhong Yue He was not blind, she could already tell that she liked Prince Xian. If that woman from Xi Family crawled on the bed, the first would be Xi Wan Rong.


    Xi Jiu Er, who knew this secret, started to think about how she could obtain the most benefits. Xi Wu Er, who was with her, started to think rapidly. Xi Jiu Er definitely would not do such a thing. She didn''t know why she would believe that Xi Jiu Er didn''t do it ¡­ And if this person was not her, then was it Xi Wan Rong or Xi Wan Feng?


    She felt that the probability of Xi Wan Rong finding the Prince Xian was higher, because he was there to look for the Prince Xian.


    "Five Miss s, our Miss wants you to make a trip!" Si Ping knocked on the door.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Xi Wu Er with a smile that was not a smile, and continued to read her own book. She did not even need to think to know what would happen next, the three of them were definitely singing it for her! Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s expression, Xi Wu Er did not know if she would want to leave or not, and thus started to hesitate.


    "Five Miss s?" Si Ping said again from outside, her voice sounded somewhat urgent.


    "Ninth sister, I''ll be right back ¡­" Finally, Xi Wu Er stood up and walked out. In the end, she still chose Xi Wan Rong and, the two girls. Since it was like this, she was no longer polite to Xi Wu Er.


    "Speak, were you the one who did it?" Xi Wan Rong asked curiously.


    "I didn''t do it. If I did it like thunder, I wouldn''t have died." Xi Wu Er immediately swore, and seeing that she did not ask anymore, she wondered if it was really Xi Jiu Er. That''s great? One of them asked, "What happened to the thing I told you to do?"


    "Liu Shui, who was by Xi Jiu Er''s side, was too skilled. His timely appearance ruined my good fortune." Xi Wu Er gritted her teeth. Xi Wan Rong did not say anything.


    Xi Wan Feng quickly thought of a plan in his head. He couldn''t let them find out that he was the one who did it, not even a little bit. Perhaps, this was a chance to take Xi Jiu Er down and he said: "I have a plan ¡­ You can make Xi Jiu Er wish she was dead! "


    "What plan?" Xi Wan Rong immediately asked excitedly. This sister of hers was smart, the method would definitely be good! On the other hand, Xi Wu Er''s eyelids involuntarily twitched, he was probably not Xi Jiu Er''s match at all.


    "All of you, come with me ¡­" Xi Wan Feng said softly.


    Madam''s face did not look good, she fiercely threw out the tea cup in her hand and struck right on Zhong Tang Jun''s forehead! Fresh blood immediately gushed out. Zhong Yue He almost screamed out when she saw the situation: "mother, what are you doing!"

 C88

    "Look at what your brother has done, don''t think that I don''t know ¡­" "He must have drugged it to create such a situation. Otherwise, how could such a thing have happened?" Madam still understood her son.


    He knew exactly what kind of trash he was.


    mother, you really wronged your son this time. Your son didn''t do anything to Xi Family, if your son is lying, you will die a horrible death! Zhong Tang Jun felt that he had been wronged, he never thought that one day, he would actually be taken advantage of by a woman! Seeing that mother was not willing to give him the sh * t bowl, he immediately swore to the heavens to prove his innocence.


    "You really didn''t do it?" Madam frowned: "Tell me about what happened in detail." She was also a woman who had walked out of the house. After hearing her son tell her about what had happened, she guessed that his son had fallen for the woman and could not help but sneer. "Heh, for there to be a woman scheming against you, that''s a good thing."


    "mother, I don''t want this kind of woman, she''s too despicable, her heart is too evil." Zhong Tang Jun immediately rejected: "Although my son is lustful, but I still know the principle of marrying a good wife."


    "mother, daughter thinks that Xi Wu Er is very suspicious ¡­" Zhong Yue He said: "Only those concubinage who are not on stage will use such despicable methods."


    However, the Madam said: "mother''s way of thinking is exactly the opposite. If it really is Xi Wu Er, why would she run away? Wouldn''t it be as she wishes to be caught in person? "


    "mother, you mean ¡­ "She doesn''t want anyone to know who she is?" Zhong Yue He asked. "Then who does mother think it is?" That means it''s possible for Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng, and Xi Jiu Er to be here.


    "mother doesn''t know either. Let''s go and see them!" Madam was not happy with the Xi Family sisters this time. This time, Zhong Family was going to be disgraced too! She had the maids arrange for the four Miss''s to stay in her room and carefully observe their expressions behind the bead curtain, but did not find anything strange ¡­


    Suddenly ¡ª Xi Wu Er said: "Little Sister Jiu Er, after you left, did you go to look for your cousin Young Master?"


    "Sister Jiu Er went to find Young Master Zhong?" Xi Wan Rong covered his mouth in shock: "Then that means ¡­ That''s you? " She directly spoke out the result.


    Xi Wan Feng was also very startled: "Little Sister Jiu Er, that cousin Young Master might look good, but his character is a little worse, so why is Little Sister ¡­ Even ifhe was a beloved watch Young Master, she could not be like this, what about the face of a girl? Don''t you understand the principle of mutual prosperity and destruction? "


    "Ha, he''s already starting to make trouble. It looks like we''ve already reached a consensus, and he''s going to use this matter to topple me?" Xi Jiu Er said in a cold voice, "Sister Wu, when did I go to see Young Master?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s voice was too cold, so cold that it made Xi Wu Er shiver. But she had already walked down this path, and there was no longer any room for manoeuvre, so she couldn''t retreat now! Thus, his voice was firm as she said: "When I said my goodbyes to you, you said that you wanted to see the. You said that you borrowed a book from the Young Master and planned to return it.


    Xi Jiu Er could not help but tremble and quickly stabilize herself. She realized something, could it be that she had discovered something? She told herself not to mess things up, not to mess things up.


    The Madam had already arrived, and she had clearly heard their conversation. She asked straightforwardly: "Jiu Er, is it you?" If Jiu Er was really someone she did not reject, then she would be very happy.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "No, after I broke up with Sister Wu, I went back to my room to rest. I have never stepped out of my room, much less looked at my watch Young Master.


    Zhong Yue He did not like Xi Jiu Er at all, as they all said that one could not judge a book by its cover, and that one could not judge a book by its cover, and that Xi Jiu Er was not bad, why did he do all the dirty things. That''s the maidservant by your side, of course he''s speaking up for you. "


    "But what the Sister Wu said was only one-sided. Could it be that she decided it was me? Maybe it was someone else who was evil. Maybe it was someone like ¡­ My elder sister Rong, where is Sister Wu going? " When she spoke about Xi Wan Feng, she purposely paused for a few moments, causing Xi Wan Feng''s heart to almost clench and jump out of his throat.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, you better not refuse to admit it! You better not implicate us, implicate the reputation of Xi Family! If you admit it right away, then this marriage is decided! " Xi Wan Rong stood up and said angrily: "Someone has already seen you coming out of that room."


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes instantly flashed with ferocity, Good, very good! She had conspired together to kill him! Therefore, the more calm Xi Jiu Er became, the faster they moved. They had even found her proof of him! Suddenly ¡­ She looked towards Xi Wu Er and quickly whispered into her ear, "You''ve missed the opportunity."


    She and Xi Wu Er were very close, and their movements were quick to the point that no one noticed, only seeing Xi Wu Er suddenly stunned, and did not slow down for a moment! Wrong chance? Was it Xi Jiu Er who gave him the chance? Heh ¡ª She was not afraid, she would definitely pull Xi Jiu Er down.


    "Then get someone here to confront him." Madam was very satisfied with Xi Jiu Er not panicking in the face of danger. Looking at the so-called number one beauty, first talented girl felt that she was like a dog biting its fur, causing people to feel disgusted. No matter what, Xi Jiu Er was still a sister to her, she had actually forced him to his death!


    After a while, a servant girl came over, trembling. Madam asked if she saw Xi Jiu Er leaving the house, the servant shook her head fiercely: "Servant did not see anything, did not see anything at all." She wouldn''t risk her life just for those fifty taels.


    After thinking for a while, she decided not to take that fifty taels. What was she supposed to enjoy if she lost her life? Thinking about Prince Xian''s cold eyes, she felt her entire body tremble violently.


    "You, you clearly said you saw her leave the courtyard, why did you go back on your words now?" Xi Wan Rong looked at the servant girl, but the servant pretended not to see anything, and said with her head lowered: "Madame, Servant really did not see anything. I think Miss Rong has misunderstood. "


    "You!" Xi Wan Rong was enraged, but Xi Wan Feng''s face was pale, the plan had already changed.


    "Elder Sister Rong, is this the evidence you spoke of?" Xi Jiu Er sarcastically said, her face full of contempt: "We are both daughters of the Xi Family, and yet we are all so proud that we would go down together. Hehe ¡­ It seems like you do not see me as your little sister at all. "


    "You, you quibble. After doing such a thing, you are not our sister." Xi Wan Rong bit his tongue, not very clear about what was going on, but his expression was extremely confident.


    "Great!" "Since that''s the case, why don''t we have a medical examination ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly and said: "Since that''s the case, let''s start with Big Sis." She wanted to see how you would do it, Xi Wan Feng.


    Physical examination? Physical examination? No, she couldn''t. She definitely wouldn''t let Xi Jiu Er succeed in her attempt. When the time comes, everything will fall apart! She looked at Xi Jiu Er. She definitely knew this, otherwise she wouldn''t have sneered at him like this, as if she was just a clown.


    She hated Xi Jiu Er to the core, hated him to the core! She suddenly walked in front of Xi Wu Er and slapped him, cursing: "Little Sister Wu, you actually dared to lie to me, how can you trust me normally! It was obvious that you seduced a cousin of the Young Master and yet you accused her wrongly. What intentions do you have to do this, did you really have to verify her true body before you would be willing to speak the truth? Why not honestly say it out, and marry a cousin of yours? "


    Xi Jiu Er sneered: "What kind of play is this, isn''t it changing too quickly?"


    Don''t even mention the fact that this Xi Wu Er had just started learning with his mouth, the sudden change in events made it impossible for her to show him. She could only stare blankly at Xi Wan Feng, while Xi Wan Feng gave her hints. That''s right, if she admitted that she had a relationship with Zhong Tang Jun, then she could marry Zhong Tang Jun. At that time, wouldn''t the First Lady have no choice but to do the same?


    The thought had already reached this point in Xi Wu Er''s words: Madam, it''s my fault, it''s all because I wronged Sister Jiu Er, actually all of this is because I wanted to marry the surface Young Master, and the surface Young Master is a genius that I have long promised her, but the surface Young Master disagrees, so I thought of this idea, but after what happened, I was very afraid, and did not know what to do, and in that moment, my heart was filled with fear, and I did not know what to do.


    Xi Wan Rong suddenly understood that she was no longer a virgin. If his secret was to be examined, it would be known to the world. Fortunately, my sister reacted in time to avoid a disaster.


    Madam looked at the situation and changed her expression quickly: Since that''s the case, why did you wrongly accuse Ninth Miss?


    "I, I was afraid that if the matter was exposed, mother would definitely punish me, so I pretended to confuse the crowd and put this matter on Sister Jiu Er ¡­ I... None of this has anything to do with Little Sister Jiu Er ¡­ " Xi Wu Er sobbed.


    "You despicable thing, you actually dare to use such tricks. You''re truly disgusting!" Zhong Yue He scolded, he wanted to go up and give her a ruthless slap. What kind of Miss did this Xi Family raise, if Xi Wan Rong had not insisted on bringing Xi Wu Er over, this would not have happened. Even Zhong Yue He hated Xi Wan Rong.


    Xi Wan Feng fiercely bit down on his butchered face as his entire face became pale white. Zhong Yue He''s words were like knives slicing his own heart, and all of them were her own!


    Xi Jiu Er sneered: "No matter what, this body must be tested."


    "What?" Or was it to be tested? Why, I''ve already admitted it ¡­ Would you make fun of my chastity? " Xi Wu Er cried: "I''ve already become like this, do you really have to force me to death for you to accept this?"

 C89

    "It''s not me who forced you to your death, it''s you who planted this evil fruit. Could it be that I wanted you to climb onto the bed of a Young Master? Was it I who asked you to make such a choice? You made a mistake and shamelessly accused me of it ¡­ I won''t let this go unless I understand it. " Xi Jiu Er looked coldly and emotionlessly at Xi Wu Er, while the latter sat down on the ground and looked at Xi Wan Feng at a loss as well.


    "Alright, since Little Sister Jiu Er has said it like this, then let Madam find an old wet nurse from the palace to check on her true body! To prevent Sister Jiu Er from being suspicious of Sister Wu! " Xi Wan Feng''s mind worked quickly; he had already thought of a way as he slowly walked to Xi Wu Er''s side to help her stand up, and said softly yet helplessly: "Why are you doing this? "Sigh ¡­"


    At this moment, the two of them were like a pair of passionate sisters. The previous exchange of insults had seemed like a dream.


    "Alright, go ask the mother of cinnamon s in the mansion to come out." Madam ordered the servants by her side to go find mother of cinnamon to come over. She looked at the Xi Family s in contemplation and more or less understood that the two innocent people were Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wu Er. Who exactly was her son ¡­ But Xi Wan Rong? As her sister, Xi Wan Feng protected her sister everywhere, it was normal for her to be protected.


    In the past, there seemed to be some wind blowing that Xi Wan Rong and Young Master Xue were living in Gu Sha, and he did not know if it was true or not. He thought that it was made up by someone who did not chat, but today, he realized that the rumors did not seem to be true.


    Xi Wan Feng secretly pinched Xi Wu Er''s wrist: Little Sister Wu, look at your pale face, do you feel uncomfortable?


    "Ah ¡­" "Yes ¡­" Xi Wu Er was clever, and stammered: "I want to go to the toilet ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er and Madam raised an eyebrow, and Madam said indifferently: "Go." She didn''t want to end this matter here. Her opponent was Xi Wan Rong, the prettiest girl in the world, so he was naturally worth a lot more than Xi Wu Er ¡­ Thinking about the two families, Xi Wu Er had to sacrifice herself.


    Walking on the road, Xi Wan Feng said, "Once we have a medical examination, we will definitely be done for... Now all you have to do is... " Muttering softly in front of Xi Wu Er, Xi Wu Er''s expression changed.


    You have seen this cousin''s manor, which is even more luxurious than our Xi Mansion''s. In the future, all of this will belong to him, and as long as you can get his favor, what difference does the concubinage have from your legal wife? Xi Wan Feng taught.


    "Yes, Big Sister Feng is talking about ¡­" Xi Wu Er stammered, but in her heart she thought that the Third Wife did not receive much from his father. Isn''t he still bowing in front of the First Lady? Being suppressed by the First Lady all the time is too low, and it''s all because he''s a concubinage!


    When the two of them returned, the sharp-eyed person clearly felt that Xi Wu Er had changed, especially her posture was a bit unnatural. She had a very sharp nose, and a faintly bloody smell floated over, immediately understanding what had happened. It seemed that Xi Wan Feng had broken his body, so he was not afraid to inspect it.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly looked at Xi Wu Er, and Xi Wu Er looked at her with venomous eyes. If it wasn''t for Xi Jiu Er, she wouldn''t have to endure such pain, it was all Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er could guess what she was thinking about, there were some people that were like this, they were obviously the path they chose yet had to depend on others, this kind of person was the type that she hated the most.


    When the mother of cinnamon came, she gestured to bring them in. When the mother of cinnamon came, he already knew of her mission, so she bowed towards the Madam and entered the house. Before long, she came out and reported, "This Miss is no longer a virgin."


    This Xi Wu Er, ah Xi Wu Er, you actually chose to marry to the Zhong Family in such a way. Did she really think that just by becoming Zhong Tang Jun''s person, she could enjoy the prosperity of the Zhong Family? He didn''t even bother to look at his own abilities. A bastard who used such a method ¡­ Haha, life will definitely not be easy in the future.


    Madam was angry, even though she knew the outcome would make her angry, she was not angry at Xi Wu Er, but at the woman who actually crawled onto her son''s bed. Xi Family was truly too much, did she really think that Zhong Family was easy to bully?


    "You ¡­" She wanted to say that the shameless bitch had been stopped in her tracks, but she didn''t say anything in the end. She liked Xi Jiu Er, and now that Xi Wu Er had come running over, she was really angry at him. "Hmph ¡­" Xi Family, this time you guys are at fault, she will definitely take back the advantage.


    "My brother is elegant and elegant, he has seen all sorts of beauties, to think that he would actually be together with a woman like you ¡­" Zhong Yue He looked at Xi Wu Er in disdain, he was born into a concubine, and did not have any form of education at all as he climbed onto the man''s bed. It seemed like Xi Family''s education was not that great.


    "This is also understandable, since the Young Master has already become delirious due to the traditional Chinese medicine ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was about to say something when he was interrupted by him. "Great Miss Xi, it seems that you know quite a lot ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng was embarrassed and turned his head around: "I was only guessing."


    "Since the situation has developed to this point, why don''t we return to the Xi Mansion tomorrow? I will send a matchmaker to the Xi Mansion ¡­"


    Xi Wu Er was ecstatic, the Madam was enraged when she saw her unsightly smile, and supported the servant by her side to take care of this matter! If one did not watch a good show and just chose to watch a good show, Madam''s face would contort!


    Xi Jiu Er followed Madam and laughed: "Madam, where are the crew?


    Madam was stunned: "Ninth Miss is here to watch a show?"


    "En, as the saying goes, it''s good. Once you finish singing, I''ll go on stage ¡­" Xi Jiu Er laughed, the anger in her heart was even stronger than''s, she was so angry that she almost went crazy, why would she be in the mood to watch the show? The corner of her mouth twitched as she ordered the maidservants accompanying her to bring Xi Jiu Er to a show ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui to watch the show happily, and from far away, they could already hear the noises from the stage, it looked to be extremely lively! When Xi Jiu Er walked closer, she realized that there was only one person ¡ª ¡ª Mu Qiu Shui.


    When Mu Qiu Shui heard this, he shook his head with a drowsy look. When he wasn''t paying attention and was about to leave quietly, he heard the person with his eyes closed say slowly: "Since you''re here, why do you want to leave?"


    Of course I don''t think about you. What do you think? Xi Jiu Er slowly turned around and smiled: "It''s just that I don''t want to disturb Your Highness'' mood." After that, she calmly sat not too far away and stared at the stage. She did not understand these people singing, but it was just to pass the time.


    "How about I show you tomorrow?" Mu Qiu Shui turned and smiled at Xi Jiu Er. In that moment, she looked extremely beautiful, as if her entire surroundings had lost all color.


    So the two of them watched the play in tacit understanding, and before long, Xi Wan Rong appeared as well. She actually sat next to the Prince Xian openly, and made such an action in broad daylight, she thought that the Prince Xian must be crazy!


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Wan Rong asked bashfully: What kind of show is this?


    "Why are you so stupid? "You don''t even know what''s going on?" Mu Qiu Shui gave Xi Wan Rong the slightest of face, making Xi Wan Rong''s number one under heaven''s face turn as red as a pig''s liver.


    Xi Wan Rong saw that Xi Jiu Er was listening intently, hmph, what bullsh * t! Since sshe lost face, he should also make her lose her talent. Thus, he softly asked, "Does Little Sister Jiu Er know what song this is?"


    "Hehe, even Elder Sister Rong doesn''t know, of course I don''t." Xi Jiu Er admitted that she did not know the facts as a matter of course. Knowing was knowing, but not knowing, so what if she did not know.


    "Hehe, Ninth Miss is so frank!" Mu Qiu Shui laughed. It was really too infuriating, why didn''t she know that she would become stupid and Xi Jiu Er wouldn''t know that she would become honest?


    At night, when Xi Jiu Er heard the sound of tossing and turning from side to side, she finally decided to go to the space to sleep. Therefore, on the second day, only Xi Jiu Er was in high spirits, and the other three people were not in very good spirits. She packed her things and prepared to leave.


    There was not a single person from the Zhong Family''s master, only the old mother who was serving beside the Madam and an old lady dressed in fancy clothing. She said that the matchmaker would go with them and that he would go with them. Seeing Zhong Family''s sincerity, Xi Wu Er felt that it was worth it, even though she had lost something precious in exchange.


    Along the way, Xi Wan Rong was in a daze, and all he could think of was Mu Qiu Shui''s figure. Who knew when the next time they would meet would be! This time, Xi Wan Feng was lucky enough to escape from the carriage. Atop another carriage, Xi Jiu Er was comfortably sleeping, allowing a pair of vicious eyes to stare at him.


    Liu Shui asked indifferently: "Miss Wu, could it be that Miss forced you to do this? Why don''t you blame Miss?


    Xi Wu Er''s face reddened as she argued, "You know what it is."


    Seeing her unmoving expression, Liu Shui decided to close his eyes and rest as well. Xi Wu Er gasped for breath. No matter how she walked down the road, she had already chosen it. He didn''t know what kind of punishment the First Lady would give, but he wouldn''t make it too difficult for her on account of the Zhong Family.


    "Crack ~ ~" The carriage stopped slowly. Before Xi Jiu Er could understand what was happening, a group of masked people suddenly attacked Xi Jiu Er''s and his carriage. Liu Shui resisted with all his might to prevent Xi Jiu Er from being captured, but Xi Wu Er had already been captured.


    "Aiya, such a beautiful woman!" Xi Jiu Er looked down as she thought about the good show that Mu Qiu Shui had mentioned. Could it be that this was the play she was about to play?


    Liu Shui protected Xi Jiu Er behind him, the rest of the people were all captured by the masked men, Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong were so scared that they started to tremble, Xi Wan Rong was so scared that he started to scream. The burly man beside her shouted, "Shut up! You''re too noisy! Do you believe that I won''t immediately deal with you?"


    Xi Wan Rong did not dare say anything, as he let out a sharp shout, "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" With a ripping sound, everyone saw Xi Wu Er with their own eyes. Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Such an audacious madman, he had actually done such a thing in public.


    "Save me ¡­" "Hurry up and save me ¡­"

 C90

    Xi Wu Er was like a dog being dragged in a forest. Everyone knew very well what was going to happen next, and they were all shocked, worried that such a thing would happen to them. Xi Wu Er''s screams came from the forest, filled with despair and horror.


    "Pu", an arrow flew towards the forest, followed by Xi Wu Er''s scream. The forest immediately saw Xi Wu Er crawling out with no clothes on, the bandits and their accomplices did not have any control over her, someone shouted: "Prince Xian is here, everyone run!" Then he ran away in the shape of a bird or beast.


    Xi Jiu Er secretly laughed as she covered her mouth. Prince Xian was really funny as well. Prince Xian rode over, frowning he asked: "What happened?" Xi Jiu Er looked at him and slyly blinked his eyes.


    Xi Wu Er had already entered the carriage, while the servant, Long Er, was wiping her body and dressing her up. She was stunned like a puppet, her mind a complete blank, all she knew was that she was finished, her entire life was ruined. The people of Zhong Family had already seen her being... She couldn''t give it to Zhong Family at home. With her broken body, who would still dare to take it from her?


    Destroy ¡­ Everything was ruined... Xi Wu Er was momentarily unable to accept such a great shock, and his vision turned black before he fainted.


    "Miss!" When Long Er''s voice passed through the carriage, there was already no one who paid attention to her. old mother, who was sent by the Zhong Family, had an ugly expression on his face, she was an acquaintance of the Madam, and now that such a thing had happened, she could act on his own accord and not follow him to the Xi Family. He said to Mu Qiu Shui: "Since Your Highness has come, I will trouble you to escort the Xi Family''s Miss''s various Miss s back to their homes.


    "No problem." Prince Xian readily agreed as well.


    "Return to the estate." The old mother ordered the carriage with a darkened face. She looked down on the concubines that were forever unable to appear on the stage, this kind of trash was not even willing to give it to her son, the Shangguan Miss was more than amazing!


    and Xi Wan Feng''s face were white, their eyes filled with fear, but compared to Xi Wan Rong, they were slightly calmer, because her heart was already flying to the Prince Xian outside. She lifted the curtain and said: "Prince, are you thirsty?"


    "Thank you, Miss Rong, for your good intentions. This king is not thirsty." Mu Qiu Shui saw that Xi Jiu Er had closed his eyes and was resting, and raised the corner of his mouth into a smile, which made Xi Wan Rong think that he was smiling at her, and unhappily put down the curtain.


    Xi Wan Feng frowned, this was good, Xi Wu Er had completely lost the value of using her, but to him, she was already an abandoned son, and was of no use at all. Now that he had calmed down and thought about it, he felt that this matter was a little strange. He didn''t know who this thing was that made them do this kind of thing in public.


    Each carriage had their own marking. Even though the Xi Family was not some powerful family, they were still able to move onto the stage. These people looked well-trained, and they did not look like normal robbers. Who was it, who was it that wanted to ruin the family''s reputation?


    had already returned to Zhong Family, and told everything to him. Madam''s face was extremely ugly, he snorted: "Forget it, just treat it as my son taking advantage of me!"


    After returning to the Xi Mansion, Mu Qiu Shui begged again and again before taking his leave. Before leaving, he looked at Xi Jiu Er affectionately, which couldn''t help but make Xi Jiu Er feel goosebumps all over his body. She stood behind Xi Wan Rong and noticed that his body was trembling uncontrollably.


    Xi Wan Feng was the eldest daughter, so there were things that Xi Jiu Er did not need to worry about. She had naturally arranged everything for Xi Wu Er, so she had left right after bowing to Xi Wan Feng and him.


    "Little sister, let''s go." Xi Wan Feng saw his sister shouting at the empty street as if she was drunk.


    Xi Wan Rong regained his senses and said unhappily: "What are you roaring for, hmph!" She brought the maidservant back to take a bath in dissatisfaction. The carriage that she had been driving for so long had suffered a shock, and now that she met her beloved again, she felt extremely tired. She needed a good rest.


    Xi Wan Feng was so angry that she wanted to step forward and kick her own sister a few times, and instructed her to bring Xi Wu Er back. She should not invite First Lady, she was afraid that the doctor would notice the inkling.


    "If you dare to say even half a word about this, I will definitely not let you off lightly." Xi Wan Feng''s eyes were sinister and ruthless, how could he still see the grand and majestic Great Miss back then? However, now that something like this had happened, the servants could do it right away. All of them were terrified and did not dare to speak anymore.


    When he went back, he heard that the servant said that First Lady was sick. Xi Wan Feng couldn''t help but cry, even though he felt that the First Lady was biased towards him, but it was still his own mother. The Wang Ma looked at Xi Wan Feng weirdly, so why did his second uncle come back to the Zhong Residence? That was unreasonable!


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Feng sat in front of First Lady''s bed. First Lady slowly woke up and stared at the hot woman in front of him: "You, why are you here?"


    Xi Wan Feng saw that First Lady was not lightly sick and asked worriedly: "What''s wrong with mother, are you sick just because you are well?" It was a little sour. "mother is my daughter, not ¡­ mother... " She thought she was a proud Miss, but gradually she realized that she wasn''t. She thought that just because she was well-read, she would be able to return back to normal. She was wrong, she had lost her daughter''s most precious thing, this matter was clearly what Xi Jiu Er had said. She was simply no match for Xi Jiu Er, she could unknowingly harm herself ¡­ She was scared.


    Seeing that she had always been supporting her own mother, she finally realized how difficult it was. Thus, she told everything that had happened in the Zhong Family to First Lady from a distance, causing him to almost vomit blood. Listening to what had happened to Xi Wu Er, she did not take it to heart.


    "My Feng''er, how did you encounter this kind of situation? That little slut Xi Jiu Er''s mother will definitely help you take care of this matter." First Lady comforted Xi Wan Feng as if she was plagued with poison.


    "Feng''er, you can be at ease now that what has happened. mother will definitely not let this matter be leaked. You can''t leave your personal servant alive, mother will find you another maid to serve you, you can use his as you wish. "


    "Thank you mother, seeing that mother is unable to share her daughter like this, it is truly the unfilial act of the mother! His daughter would hide this matter deep within her heart and wouldn''t let anyone see through it! mother... What did the doctor say? " Xi Wan Feng asked softly.


    "It''s nothing, I just worked hard. As long as I recuperate, I''ll be fine." First Lady sighed.


    "mother, what do you think about Xi Wu Er?" Xi Wan Feng asked.


    The First Lady bit her lips: "This time, we will borrow Xi Wu Er''s power to kill this little bitch. If Xi Wu Er isn''t stupid, we will naturally be able to differentiate between the two of them." He told the Wang Ma to wake Xi Wu Er up and come over, he had something to talk to her about.


    "Feng''er, you are tired too, go back and rest, as for your servant Mu Xi, let her stay here!" The First Lady said indifferently.


    "Yes." Xi Wan Feng said softly, the servant who was serving him was a little reluctant, but the moment she thought about it, comparing her reputation with his was already nothing.


    "You, your heart is not strong enough, how can you fight against Xi Jiu Er?" The First Lady said indifferently.


    "Daughter knows." Xi Wan Feng nodded.


    Xi Wu Er woke up in this room. Seeing the familiar room, it was as if she was in a dream. Seeing her strange expression, Long Er did not dare to say anything to scare her, and carefully understood: "Miss, Madame said that if you woke up, she wants you to meet her."


    Xi Wu Er''s expression changed, and he said indifferently: "Get up and dress up for me."


    Long Er became even more cautious, afraid that she would have something on her that would make him the target. From the beginning till the end, Xi Wu Er''s expression was still calm, so calm that it was unreal. After cleaning everything up, the two went to First Lady''s room, and only then did they find out that First Lady was sick.


    "It''s Wu''er. Wang Ma, bring a stool over to Wu''er." First Lady said weakly, and compared to his usual self, he was like a completely different person. Xi Wu Er knelt in front of him and cried, "mother, mother ¡­"


    "Feng''er has already told me about it. At that time, Rong Er wholeheartedly wanted you to go with them because he wanted you to see the world. In the future, you can marry a good family, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen?" The First Lady coughed and said, "Even though you were born as a little Madame, I am the mistress and you are also my daughter. How can I bear to make you look so miserable? Wan Rong and Wan Feng will be married again in the future. "


    "mother... I beg you, please save my daughter ¡­ " Xi Wu Er cried: "In the future, your daughter will be your slave."


    "This... Forget it, letting you marry the Zhong Family is not without a problem ¡­ " As for what kind of life he wants to marry into, that was not what she wanted, but what the First Lady wanted was for Xi Wu Er to become her slave.


    "If you have to blame something like this, you have to blame Xi Jiu Er. If it wasn''t for her, how could you have ended up in such a state? I think that it was Xi Jiu Er who made you get kidnapped by the evil people, but all of them kidnapped you, so why do you think you are doing this? " The First Lady began to babble and make up nonsense.


    "Yes, mother is right." Xi Wu Er said as he bit into the meat.


    First Lady nodded his head: "You are a smart person, since you are so big, you can decide for yourself." Xi Wu Er left in a sorry state, the First Lady was making so much money that it seemed like they were going to kill people, Xi Wu Er had not finished asking about its value yet!


    Xi Wu Er went back to think about how she could help him. The servant, Long Er, whispered that the Madame Feng was here and she said in disgust: "Tell her that my body isn''t well enough to not want to see her."


    "Yes." Long Er whispered.

 C91

    The Prince Xian was full?


    Madame Feng was Xi Wu Er''s biological mother, so she didn''t care at all when she fought over it. She would never be able to count on this mother, as everything depended on her. Xi Wu Er thought that if he wasn''t her biological daughter, then what? She was the daughter of the First Lady, and he would be the direct descendant!


    Right, why can''t he use this method? If Xi Jiu Er was considered a bastard, then not only would he ruin Xi Jiu Er''s reputation, he would also let her leave the Xi Family! This was killing two birds with one stone!


    "Hahaha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er, I want you dead without a burial ground! " Xi Wu Er covered his mouth and said fiercely! The next day, early in the morning, she gave the servant, Long Er, a sum of money. She whispered into her ears and threatened, "If you can''t settle this matter well, you can be sold to the brothel."


    "Yes, Servant will definitely take care of this matter well." Long Er trembled in fear.


    The moment Long Er left the house, she followed Liu Shui. After about four hours, she returned to report to Xi Jiu Er: "Miss Jiu Er, Long Er went to the most lively teahouse in the capital and gave the storybook a hundred taels of silver, telling her that Miss is not Miss!"


    Xi Jiu Er was still drawing in the room. The one who drew the most was a man, a man! It was probably because her painting skills were too poor, he could not even see her appearance, but it was much better now. Xi Jiu Er had been working hard on drawing every day, the moonlight had become brighter and they were almost identical.


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er put down her pen and lightly said: "Since that''s the case, let''s not act blindly without thinking. It will probably be very lively."


    As expected, at night, when the topic of Xi Jiu Er being a bastard spread out, First Lady smiled upon hearing the news.


    When it was night time, First Lady went to ask for Xi Hong Sheng''s national mourning, saying that there was something important to tell Xi Hong Sheng. First Lady had suppressed the matter regarding Xi Wu Er, so no one in the residence knew about this, and Xi Hong Sheng was even less clear.


    Before Xi Hong Sheng could even enter the room, he heard the First Lady crying as he covered his face with his hands. He raised the curtain and asked: "What are you crying for?"


    "Master, this humble one has something that I want to report to Master. It is my fault, it is my fault." First Lady covered his face as tears streamed down his face, and Xi Hong Sheng had also heard the rumors outside that Xi Jiu Er was not her own daughter. To him, it was practically nonsense, and he didn''t know what official looked down upon her and thought of a way to punish him.


    "Speak, what happened? Why do you look like you''re crying?" Xi Hong Sheng sat down, upset. He did not like the look of the First Lady, this was the perfect time to stop him.


    First Lady dismissed the servants and left them outside the door to wait. Only then did she take out the kernels and wipe her tears, "Master, I heard it was passed on from the outside ¡­ the one who told you that Jiu Er is not your daughter at all ¡­ "


    "Do you also believe this?" Xi Hong Sheng shouted in anger.


    "I naturally don''t believe it, but I do remember something. When Madame Wei was young, she was one of the most beautiful women. I wonder how many people rushed to marry her ¡­" Seeing Xi Hong Sheng''s proud look, she hated Xi Hong Sheng very much. Hmph, she was just a dead person, how could she, a living person, not fight a dead person?


    "After what happened today, not only did I think that Madame Wei and the elder brother of Third Wife were very close ¡­ Back then, the servants had told me several times that both of them had been secretly taught to each other ¡­ At that time, I did not think too much about it. "Today, there were some rumors outside that forced me to say them!" Since Xi Wu Er wanted to do it, why not add fuel to the fire? That would be interesting.


    After saying that, Xi Hong Sheng''s entire face became ashen. Back then, how could she not know that Song Hanruo had feelings for her? However, he had thought of something to celebrate with, and he wanted to see if Song Hanruo could eat or not. How could there be such a thing?


    "What nonsense are you spouting, how can Jiu Er be her own daughter! You shouldn''t think about things like that for a day. " Xi Hong Sheng shouted angrily, and left in the end.


    "Madame ¡­" Wang Ma looked at First Lady worriedly, but First Lady actually smiled, and said that this was the real Xi Hong Sheng, and lightly said: "Wang Ma, just you wait, the good show is about to start."


    "Miss! Master left his courtyard in a rage!" Liu Xiang whispered.


    "Hehe, the First Lady is fanning the flames!" Xi Jiu Er smiled and instructed Liu Shui to find Wei Guogong and let him settle this matter, then sent some people to Xi Mansion.


    The moment he finished instructing them, the mother of joy said: "Miss Jiu Er, the old Madame does not seem to be in a good state and hopes that Miss can go to the Buddha to recite scriptures and pray for their blessings!" mother of joy''s face didn''t show anything, it was still the same smile from before. Xi Jiu Er knew that the old Madame was frustrated beyond belief and was venting her anger on him.


    "Yes, to be able to pray for the Grandmother is my good fortune. I will go to the small ancestral hall later!" Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Then this old servant will take his leave." mother of joy smiled and instructed Liu Xiang to send him off. She had just sent off a wave after another and the Wei Guogong had brought the old man who the shuttle belonged to in. Then, she directly threw it in front of Xi Hong Sheng, who asked with a darkened face: "May I ask what is the meaning of this Wei Guogong?"


    "This is Prince Fu''s intention, just say that this thief is very spiteful, and let Master handle it." Saying that, he took his leave. Before leaving, he indifferently glanced at the storyteller, scaring that person to the core.


    The old storyteller on the ground was beaten black and blue, he kneeled on the ground and pulled Xi Hong Sheng''s robes: "Master Xi, Master Xi, someone told me to do it, it was a servant girl, she told me to do it ¡­ She gave me a hundred silver and told me to spread it everywhere that Miss Jiu Er is not your daughter ¡­ "


    "Who is it?" Xi Hong Sheng scolded, but the storyteller shook his head: "I don''t know ¡­. "Ah, I really didn''t know ¡­"


    The truth was finally revealed! Some people did not believe those rumors, they all said that Xi Jiu Er was such a kindhearted person, how could she be a bastard? She had come all the way to find the smallpox formula, how many commoners had she saved! They were grateful!


    Xi Wu Er gnashed his teeth in anger, he never thought that this would be the end of the situation. It could even be said that it was Xi Jiu Er''s good luck, to have such an capable grandfather.


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong cheerfully went to First Lady: "Do you have any way to let your daughter see Prince Xian!"


    First Lady coughed, "Rong Er, why do you have to like Prince Xian? Isn''t it better to enter the palace and be an concubine? " In the end, she was his most beloved daughter, so he naturally wanted to give her the best. Yet, this daughter did not follow his routine? Other than his good looks, that Prince Xian was completely useless.


    "mother, your daughter likes him and wants to marry him. mother had always doted on his daughter, so why not help her instead? "What''s so good about entering the palace ¡­" She had already mentioned it countless times, but First Lady seemed to have given up and insisted on going to the palace. How she wanted to marry the cooked rice to the Prince Xian ¡­ But he didn''t even have a chance!


    "mother ¡­"


    "Let this mother consider ¡­"


    "mother is the best." Xi Wan Rong was overjoyed! I have to say that the heavens are truly helping Xi Wan Rong. I wonder if the Prince Xian is so bored that they have nothing else to do? Xi Jiu Er was naturally on the invitation list.


    "Daughter, your chance to make a name for yourself has come!" When that time comes, Mubai will take this opportunity to summon you to the palace and you can enter the palace without a hitch. This Mubai will definitely give you an opportunity to let His Majesty pamper you, so as to where mother can take care of you, you can rest assured. "


    "mother, daughter will definitely become famous." Xi Wan Feng was determined to succeed, and the self-confidence that appeared on his face allowed First Lady to see hope, and his eyebrows knitted together in displeasure: "In order to prevent any mishaps, I will make the arrangements for Xi Jiu Er''s side."


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was moved, mother still doted on her.


    One of them wanted to make a name for himself, one wanted to make a man happy for him, and the other wanted to make the Prince Xian happy, and the more important thing was to make the man happy for him. In her previous life, she remembered Xi Wan Feng had written a poem that made her famous ¡­ In this life ¡­ She would never let that happen again.


    Hearing the news, Xi Wu Er bit her lips in dissatisfaction. If she could obtain this chance, then it would be great, and she did not know what First Lady would do to help her, so she wanted to marry into Zhong Family to prevent any changes.


    "Miss Jiu Er, this is the account book ¡­" The ex-sister-in-law walked in elegantly while carrying the account book. Xi Jiu Er casually placed the account book to the side and instead asked about other things, especially regarding Lao Xu.


    "Lao Xu is probably getting impatient from waiting, he intends to become a steward! He has always wanted me to stop him from going back, so I guessed that he is asking the old Madame for help?" After all, Old Xue and Lao Xu were both doing things.


    "Hehe, Old Madame has already been looking for trouble with me every day. She probably wants me to wake up so that she can take advantage of me when I wake up!" From time to time, she would ask the mother of joy to tell him that she was sick. Since she had a heart disease, she should just let her go and pray for her luck. No matter what method the old Madame used, she just wanted to keep heart-nourishing hall''s Pu Zi in her hands and return it to her when she marries.


    Heh, her words are really pleasant to listen to. When she got married, she was given a beating that was still unknown. If she were to hold it in her hand, wouldn''t she feel embarrassed to ask for it? Maybe even if it was her, she would be greedy for a few years. You say that this person is old, but why can''t he see through it?

 C92

    A lot of people from the Prince Xian''s poems were guessing that they might choose to take on the prince''s wife, or else why would they have to invite their housekeeper, Miss? Xi Wan Rong was so excited that it seemed like something out of the ordinary. She had to suppress everyone with her Heavenly Energy and become the most dazzling person.


    This morning, Xi Jiu Er woke up the latest, and let Liu Xiang casually tidy up the mess. Unexpectedly, Liu Xiang had still tidied up Xi Jiu Er quite nicely, and Liu Xiang softly said: "After next year, Miss can marry people. Now, you need to properly tidy up and get a good reputation before someone comes knocking on the door to propose marriage."


    Don''t look down on those direct relatives, they would also help their brothers and sisters lose all color, and those girls would also help their mother to inspect them, so they could not casually do anything.


    Xi Jiu Er was silent for a moment, was she going to get married in the end? No, she wouldn''t get married until she turned Xi Mansion upside down.


    When Xi Jiu Er left, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng had already left. This was not unexpected, as Xi Jiu Er was on the carriage studying a chess board, while Liu Shui was eating with all his heart, and the current Liu Shui was even more familiar with the rules now. Liu Shui was eating the food with relish, he lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside, then suddenly took out a pearl and waved Xi Jiu Er''s hand to let her see outside!


    Xi Jiu Er noticed that her expression was strange, and raised the curtain to see that she was not going to the poetry meet place, the two of them looked at each other and Xi Jiu Er shouted: "This is not the road to the poetry meet, how did you get in the car?"


    The carriage gradually slowed down, and the two people in the carriage became vigilant, then started to bumpy up again, Liu Shui pursed his lips and said: "Miss, the carriage has entered the small path."


    There was no need to guess, there must be a conspiracy, the carriage suddenly stopped, and a few big men appeared. Liu Shui bowed and got out of the carriage: "Miss, sit outside!" Fighting sounds immediately came from outside, Xi Jiu Er secretly hated herself for learning to defend herself.


    Listening to the people he found, he was afraid that they were going to be troublesome, so he heard a man say, "Bitch, none of you can escape. Be obedient and stand still ¡­" Otherwise... Ah ¡­ Slut, slut ¡­ "You guys go clean up that bitch in the car."


    Xi Jiu Er felt that someone was close to the horse carriage, and the feeling disappeared after a while, and she heard someone shout again: "I never thought that this bitch''s skills would be so good, I made a mistake, brothers, let''s retreat!"


    There was gradually no movement outside until Liu Shui''s voice rang out, "Miss... Servant doesn''t know how to drive carriages ¡­ "


    "Neither will I." Xi Jiu Er didn''t know what to say. Could it be that they were going to walk over? Just as she was thinking of a way to deal with this, she heard Liu Shui say: "Miss, please wait for a while, a carriage is coming over, it seems to be the carriage of the Yun Family!"


    Yun Family? In the entire capital, there was only Yun Qing Ran and her family ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was waiting on the carriage when she heard the sweet voice of Yun Qing Ran''s servant outside, "Miss Jiu Er, our Miss has asked you to come with us!" The curtain was lifted to reveal a sweet and fragrant smile.


    Yun Qing Ran said while beaming: "Jiu Er, we are really fated!"


    "That''s right!" Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    It was obvious that the carriage was crowded with four people, so Liu Shui followed the coachman. Looking at Yun Qing Ran''s smiling expression and happy expression, Xi Jiu Er asked with a smile, "Have there been any happy events recently?"


    She was asking about what kind of happy things had happened in the residence. She had already let Liu Shui know that Lady Yun was already pregnant, and she guessed that Yun Qing Ran was probably happy about this, but she never would have thought that Yun Qing Ran would ask her: "What happy things?" It was obvious that the girl had a lover.


    "Hahaha ¡­" This joyous event that I''m talking about is not what you''re talking about, but... Did Sister Qing Ran have someone she liked? "Hurry up and tell your sister. Your sister will also take a look to see who it is that will enter your sister''s eyes. That person must be an extremely good person." Xi Jiu Er laughed and asked.


    "You, don''t talk nonsense. What kind of person do you like? I''ve only met him once ¡­" Yun Qing Ran thought that the man''s appearance was really good, his white robes fluttered gently, and he looked even better than the Prince Xian she had seen before. It was a pity that he was a doctor, if not she would say that she wanted to get him!


    "Once?" Xi Jiu Er laughed: "With elder sister''s ability, there will definitely be a way."


    "Sigh, but he''s a doctor, he''s not really from a famous family. I''m the direct descendant of the Yun Family, and I''m also the eldest daughter. No matter how much my parents love me, this marriage is a matter of my parents'' decision, so I can''t make the decision." Yun Qing Ran was depressed, thinking that the elegant young master was fated to meet him.


    A doctor? Wasn''t he supposed to be a general? Xi Jiu Er stared blankly for a moment. After all, every relationship should be treated as fate, so she changed to a melancholy smile and said, "Do you know that mother is pregnant?"


    "Got it."


    "It will be born soon ¡­" I feel like time flies. " Yun Qing Ran asked: "Oh right, what happened to your carriage?"


    "Nothing, just a small problem." Xi Jiu Er laughed without care, then changed the topic: "Tell me, what kind of man is he for to make you so moved?"


    "Him? His medical skills are superb, not only is he more good-looking than Prince Xian, his temperament is also more refined and refined, and I like him just by looking at him!" Xi Jiu Er was still talking about something, but she had already stopped listening carefully. The image of that little ''Xiao Feng'' guy appeared in his mind! Until now, this was the only man that Xi Jiu Er had seen that could compare to the Prince Xian.


    Prince Xian was indeed a Prince Xian. Even from a distance, they could see that there were a lot of thousand gold Miss s surrounding the Assembly, chattering non-stop. Yun Qing Ran facepalmed: "Go and tell Prince Xian that I''m not well enough to go rest."


    Fragrance accepted the order and left.


    "This kind of place is the most troublesome. We shouldn''t try to join in on the fun. Why don''t we go and take a look?" hated these kinds of meetings the most. Everyone said that three women were acting, there were at least fifty women.


    "No, I''m going because I have something to do." Xi Jiu Er smiled mysteriously, and holding Liu Shui''s hand, she slowly got off the carriage. This time, she wanted to properly humiliate Xi Wan Feng! Yun Qing Ran frowned slightly. Since Xi Jiu Er wanted to go with her, who was acting as her big sister, she would be at ease as well.


    "Jiu Er, wait for me." Yun Qing Ran quickly said: "I will go with you."


    After going through Princess Rongwang, Xi Wan Rong''s reputation wasn''t too good, even if she dressed up well, she was isolated by people. Firstly, she didn''t like her actions, and secondly, the jealousy between the women.


    This time, they were guessing whether or not it was deliberately set up by the Prince Xian''s concubine selection, and as it was the first time such a choice had been made, Xi Wan Rong, the talented girl, was already the perfect candidate. The women slowly came to a realization and distanced themselves from Xi Wan Feng and her sister.


    The arrival of Xi Jiu Er immediately caused a commotion. Forget about the rumors about ''Xi Family is a bastard child'', even if she found out that Sun Kong Ming obtained the medicinal formula for the smallpox and made a huge contribution to the common people of the capital, what surprised people was that the emperor still had not bestowed anything to her until now. Her originally jealous people were already beginning to gloat at her misfortune.


    However, there were some Miss that listened to their parents'' orders and interacted more with Xi Jiu Er. It was impossible for the emperor not to reward Xi Jiu Er with such a huge contribution. If the Emperor wanted to reward the Emperor, he would have to give a rather big reward even after so long.


    "Qing Ran..." A Miss who had a good relationship with Yun Qing Ran came over smiling, and said with a face full of joy: "It''s been a long time since I last saw you, you are much more beautiful and eye-catching than before."


    Come, let me introduce you ¡ª This is the Chu Family''s Miss, Chu Ge. Yun Qing Ran smiled and introduced himself. Then, Chu Ge and Xi Jiu Er looked at each other and smiled as they bowed to show that they had seen each other before. Yun Qing Ran''s friend, Xi Jiu Er believed that he was a good person.


    The three of them walked together, and Chu Ge also introduced the Miss to them. Previously, Xi Jiu Er didn''t like these types of people who knew her, so there were very few.


    Chu Ge''s personality was extremely different from Yun Qing Ran''s. The two of them chatted and laughed skillfully, and only now did Xi Jiu Er know that the two of them had actually known each other since they were young. Chu Ge had followed the father of the Palace and moved out of the capital when she was young, and had only moved back not long ago. The two of them had been exchanging letters the entire time, so their relationship didn''t change at all. On the contrary, it only got better and better.


    Chu Ge... In her previous life, Xi Jiu Er did not have much of an impression of him. At that time, she had only heard about those sensational things and could not hear outside matters. Xi Jiu Er was in the same circle as Yun Qing Ran, talking and laughing.


    Yun Qing Ran and Chu Ge''s statuses were noble, and they were truly born in a hundred year old family that even the emperor couldn''t shake. They had the dignity of noble ladies and normally wouldn''t befriend many people, so it wasn''t easy for them to get into their circle. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was on good terms with them, some of them went forward to curry favor with him, but were mercilessly stopped by Yun Qing Ran. After they swept their faces, they no longer wished to embarrass themselves again.


    Hmph, what''s so special about a noble girl? She doesn''t seem to be that great.


    Xi Wan Rong saw that Xi Jiu Er did not see him as being fair, why was this Miss so much better than him? Why is it so unfair? Even her friends had more face than him ¡­ Damn it. Even if she thought about it, Xi Wan Rong would not dare to do anything. Today, no matter how she thought about how she would cook rice and ripen with Prince Xian, in front of so many people, she felt that Prince Xian would not be able to let go of her words even if he wanted to.

 C93

    In a hidden place, Mu Qiu Shui was smiling as he looked at the dignified man beside him: "Your majesty, there are so many girls, do you have anyone you like?" These ladies were dressed extravagantly, probably wishing they could put on whatever they had on them.


    Unknowingly, her gaze had landed on Xi Jiu Er, and she didn''t know why, but even though she wasn''t dressed in the most gorgeous attire, and wasn''t dressed in the most luxurious attire, she still managed to catch his gaze. The corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s gaze followed Mu Qiu Shui''s direction. That woman ¡­ It wasn''t really that outstanding and she could only be considered above average amongst a group of Golden Miss s, but as long as you took a fancy to her, your gaze would unconsciously follow the movement of her figure.


    "Your majesty, this is mine, you''re not allowed to fight with me for it." Mu Qiu Shui changed from his usual state of being very serious. This made Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge curious, and he asked with raised brows: "Did you get serious?"


    "Yes sir!" Mu Qiu Shui said in a deep voice, "I also feel that it''s very strange, why would I like her, and it just so happened that I can''t think of any reason not to like her. Aiya, after speaking to the emperor for so long, why don''t you take a look at the one that you like?" Mu Qiu Shui''s face slightly blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge pursed his lips after going through a few rounds, "They are all vulgar and intolerable. Just looking at their dressing makes people feel that they have a bad appetite, then look at their words and actions ¡­ ¡­ Other than competing and showing off, I think there is nothing else I can do to hit them ¡­ ¡­ On the other hand, and Chu Family Miss were still interested in him ¡­ "After all, he''s not acting."


    "Aiya, why aren''t you looking at the number one beauty and the first talented girl Emperor!" Mu Qiu Shui chuckled, as though he was taking pleasure in someone else''s misfortune. "There are so many girls in this world that you''re not interested in, hahaha ¡­"


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge sighed and said faintly, "We only want to find someone who will treat us sincerely, and it''s not because we are zodiac that we come to love us. We don''t want anything from the Xue Family, but that kind of relationship between us, royal father and mother."


    The current empress dowager was not Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s biological mother, she had died of illness long before Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge ascended the throne. Mu Qiu Shui was quiet for a moment, they all say that men are romantic, but they were born with such a family background and they only hoped to obtain a single person''s heart, with their heads tied.


    "What did you find out about the Xi Family?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge changed the topic and asked about some official business. Mu Qiu Shui said indifferently: "Xi Hong Sheng has already teamed up with the Mubai s of the palace, and wants to bring Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng into the palace. Xi Wan Rong is so dead set on me, but the First Lady s of the Xi Family, no matter what, will never agree to marry my daughter."


    Mu Qiu Shui curled his lips and suddenly thought of Xi Jiu Er. If she let him marry her, he probably wouldn''t know if she was willing or not. This girl hid too much hatred, he knew that too many things happened in Xi Family because of her! He had already investigated before, Xi Jiu Er was originally very normal, but suddenly her temperament changed drastically, and the servants found out that Xi Wan Rong had cut Xi Jiu Er''s head off just now.


    Mubai... Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge sneered. This woman''s ambition was the same as her father''s.


    "I like to drink blue springs ¡­" Chu Ge smiled and said: "Qing Ran, what do you like to drink? is it still Tie Guanyin? " The few of them talked about the tea leaves, and naturally the one who started it was Xi Jiu Er, so as to lead to a poem. A poem that Xi Wan Feng was amazed by the whole world.


    "Yes, it''s still my old appetite." Yun Qing Ran laughed.


    "Isn''t today the poetry meet? "Why don''t we use tea as our poem?" Xi Jiu Er''s words immediately garnered an agreement, Yun Qing Ran immediately said: "If you come, then I won''t come, you all know my standards, it''s just a doggerel, I won''t be able to get anything out of it."


    Chu Ge made them like him at the time, and laughed: "No, no matter what you say, you still get one. I am the oldest one among you, I will begin."


    "The spear of Yu Rui is known as the supreme quality. Rabbit hair Wu light fragrant cloud white, shrimp eye soup turn small waves. Breaking off a few sleeping devils and adding some fresh air to the skin. The undergrowth flows outside the river rock, and is unwilling to move its roots into the capital. " Chu Ge thought for a moment and laughed.


    "Alright!" Yun Qing Ran and Xi Jiu Er both called out, making Chu Ge feel a little embarrassed. "It''s your turn."


    Yun Qing Ran could only bite the bullet and say: "The tender shoots are fragrant and spiritual, I shall call it grass. Night scones and smoke, cold ovens cooking the snow. The only thing that matters is that the green peanuts are scattered. " After which, her face turned completely red.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was about to praise him, she heard Chu Ge say, "If I remember correctly ¡­ This must be the physique of a painting in Uncle Yun''s study. "


    "You, how did you know!" Yun Qing Ran gaped.


    "I saw it when I left the capital. I remembered it ever since I liked it a lot ¡­" You really have the nerve to take it out and try to fool me. " Chu Ge teased, even though Yun Qing Ran''s face was even thicker than before, she still blushed and said bashfully: "Jiu Er, it''s your turn."


    "On the outside of the sword, there are nine flowers and Ying. The sound of a spring could be heard in the moonlight. He arrived in the middle of the night to recruit a monk. Bi Chen Xia''s feet were crushed, her fragrance was light. The six inner organs went to sleep, and numerous generations of poems appeared. I don''t dare to spend more than a month. Xi Jiu Er pretended to be deep in thought. This poem was created meticulously by Xi Wan Feng for the sake of today.


    "Hehe, I never thought that Jiu Er''s poems would be so good." Chu Ge could not help but exclaim. After Yun Qing Ran carefully pondered for a while, he said, "That''s right, Jiu Er is really well-hidden."


    Xi Jiu Er only chuckled, they then saw a red clothed Mu Qiu Shui floating over like a piece of silk, immediately causing many girls to scream, they rushed to the front and said: "Prince Xian, you really made us wait! I have to thank you for that. "


    "That''s right, we didn''t even see the prince here ¡­"


    Everyone looked at each other as they began to act spoiled towards Mu Qiu Shui. Mu Qiu Shui''s expression did not change as he accepted each and every one of them. After he finished speaking, Xi Jiu Er looked at Xi Jiu Er intentionally or not, and the corners of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched.


    "Alright, since we''re all talking about the poetry meet today, there must be a question ¡­" How about this, this topic... Let the Miss Chu decide the topic. " When Mu Qiu Shui sat down, there was immediately someone who served him tea. Since the master had already sat down, the various Miss s also found seats one after another.


    "Move aside, I''ll sit here."


    "Mine ¡­"


    "Mine, you die ¡­"


    Everyone was fighting for the seat closest to Mu Qiu Shui, and they only saw Xi Wan Rong getting the servant girl to directly carry the chair over to sit beside Mu Qiu Shui, causing the entire place to instantly quieten down.


    Mu Qiu Shui raised his eyebrows, this Xi Wan Rong was not an idiot. Thus, he said lightly: "Alright, let Miss Chu set the question."


    Chu Ge''s identity was definitely in that place, and it did not take long for her to be considered as a new person, so everyone''s enmity towards her lessened. Chu Ge laughed: "How about we use tea as our topic?"


    "Alright, let''s start with the tea." Mu Qiu Shui clapped, "Write down your poems ¡­"


    There were already servants coming with pens, ink and paper. All the Miss s who had real abilities naturally did not need to worry, those scarecrows were crying as they racked their brains. Seeing Xi Wan Rong unable to stop himself from glancing at Mu Qiu Shui and secretly sending him off, it was clear that he did not take any lousy poem to heart. first talented girl had a confident look on his face as he wrote on the ground.


    After a while, all the Miss s finished writing, Mu Qiu Shui got the people beside him to read it, but after reading one of Xi Wan Feng''s poems, the faces of Chu Ge and Yun Qing Ran slightly changed, and Xi Jiu Er''s expression did not look good either. When it came to Xi Jiu Er, everyone discovered that Xi Jiu Er''s and his poems were the same. This immediately caused an uproar.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed bitterly: "If I had known earlier, I would have changed it to another song, I wouldn''t have slacked off."


    "What''s going on?" Mu Qiu Shui frowned, "Who copied who?"


    Miss who was standing by Xi Wan Feng''s side started to speak in a strange tone: "Do you still need to say it? This must be the first time that a talented girl has been copied.


    "That''s right ¡­"


    The discussions grew louder and louder, from start to finish, Xi Jiu Er did not speak a single word. Yun Qing Ran could not continue watching, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you guys spouting, it was clearly Xi Wan Feng who copied Jiu Er. We used the tea leaves as a poem, Jiu Er was speaking about this!"


    "Yes, I can testify." Chu Ge said indifferently.


    What else could the Yun Family and the Chu Family say to testify for Xi Jiu Er? Everyone started to have a strange look at Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng bit his lips as he did not know why his poems for the same reason as Xi Jiu Er''s. This poem was completely performed on the spot by her! She was also curious, but she couldn''t stand people doubting her.


    "Since the two of you wrote the same poem, why don''t we both write another?" Mu Qiu Shui glanced at Xi Jiu Er and he also felt that it was very strange.


    Xi Wan Feng maintained her composure, she believed that Xi Jiu Er''s writing would definitely be different from hers, unless she had the clairvoyant eyes. Thus, he thought for a while before he picked up the brush. When she was holding onto her brush, Xi Jiu Er had already finished writing, so she asked the servant to give it to Mu Qiu Shui.


    When Mu Qiu Shui took it over to take a look, his eyes immediately lit up, and involuntarily looked at Xi Jiu Er. Seeing Mu Qiu Shui''s admiring gaze, Xi Wan Feng''s heart jumped a little. She asked the servant to pass the script of the poem to Mu Qiu Shui, and upon seeing that Mu Qiu Shui did not reveal anything, her heart dropped.


    "Let me recite Miss Xi Wan Feng''s poem to everyone. When the crab eyes spatter, fish scales at first sight. Suspicion of pine belt rain, afraid of smoke. And he will drink in the middle of the mountain, and there will be no days of drunkenness. " After Mu Qiu Shui finished reading it, it caused a lot of praise.


    However, Xi Wan Feng was not happy at all. Often, the best and last moments had to be left behind ¡­ She stared fixedly at Xi Jiu Er, and when the corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth hooked into a ridiculing smile, she instantly almost cursed out loud.


    "Tea, fragrant leaves, tender shoots." Mu Shike, the monk''s home. Sculpting white jade, knitting red muslin. Fried yellow and red, bowl turned into dust flowers. Night Empress had invited Mingyue to accompany her. "After cleaning up Deception, you won''t be able to praise him when you get drunk." Mu Qiu Shui replied, "This is what Miss Xi Jiu Er wrote."

    "Wow ¨C this poem is really unique, carefully savoring it is very interesting."


    "That''s right, you can tell with one look that it was written by Miss Jiu Er herself ¡­ She doesn''t seem like someone who writes random essays! "


    "That''s right. He has been copying his little sister''s poems. He really has a lot of face."


    Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng were siblings, they shared a common enemy, so when they heard someone slander Xi Wan Feng, they immediately stood up and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? It was Xi Jiu Er who copied my sister. "


    "I say, Miss Rong, this fact is already laid out in front of you. You really know how to quibble. It was clearly due to his inferior skills ¡­ After all, she is your blood related sister, and Jiu Er is not your blood related sister. "


    "You, what do you mean?" Xi Wan Rong shouted angrily!


    "It''s not that important, I''m just speaking the truth!" Of course, the person who went against Xi Wan Rong was someone who didn''t like him most of the time, but the more she saw Xi Wan Rong, the happier she became.


    "Hmph, Xi Jiu Er, you are too despicable. It was clearly you who stole the Big Sister Feng''s poems, yet you actually used it to show off your strength. You truly do not know shame." Xi Wan Rong turned his head towards Xi Jiu Er, who was at the side. On the other hand, Xi Jiu Er said innocently, "Elder Sister Rong, everyone knows that my talent is not as good as Big Sister Feng''s, why would I take this step too far? So what if I lose? "


    Xi Jiu Er had indirectly said that there was no need for him to steal any poems, since she did not care about her reputation. And secondly, she wanted to tell Xi Wan Feng that he would not be able to afford to lose even if she lost.


    Xi Wan Feng pursed his lips and laughed generously: "Hehe, Jiu Er''s guess is indeed good, big sister is willing to bow down to him." She was a smart girl. She knew why she was not a little more straightforward and generous at this moment. Wouldn''t it be better to get a good impression of her? Sure enough, her action attracted quite a few praising gazes, admitting that she sometimes had a moment of carelessness and that it wasn''t a very shameful thing!


    "Little sister was just lucky!" Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly, with a carefree look.


    Mu Qiu Shui said: "I declare that Xi Jiu Er has won today''s trial."


    Xi Jiu Er said humbly: "I was lucky, just lucky ¡­"


    The surrounding Miss immediately praised her. Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly throughout, replying modestly. It left a good impression on everyone. Xi Wan Rong who was at the side huffed and puffed as he stared at Xi Jiu Er. Slut, slut!


    "Come, Miss Jiu Er, I will use tea in place of wine to toast you." Mu Qiu Shui smiled slightly as the corners of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched. "Thank you, Prince Xian." He did not refuse and raised the teacup in his hand to gulp down the tea.


    "Alright, this is the end of today''s poetry gathering. In the future, if This King has any more fun, This King will definitely call you guys over." Mu Qiu Shui laughed and said.


    Suddenly, the servant girl beside Xi Wan Feng fell down, and with an indecent look, she fell down to the ground. Xi Jiu Er immediately shouted out: "Ah, what is that thing on your body?"


    The servant girl was the servant sent by First Lady to help Xi Wan Feng. Last night, when Xi Wan Feng went on a rampage, the servant girls on him were left with bruises and bruises, and there were even traces of a hairpin on his arm. She was not miasma, she only spent a few days with Xi Wan Feng!


    "Wen Xiang, what''s wrong with you? Who hit you? " Xi Jiu Er gasped as she covered her mouth. Everyone looked at her gaze. Someone immediately said, "This is clearly being mistreated."


    "Who is so ruthless as to drag a servant to her death?"


    "Isn''t, isn''t that Miss Feng''s servant girl?"


    "Is it Feng?"


    "It doesn''t look like it''s the case for a person who''s poor in the Berserker''s Arts ¡­"


    That Wen Xiang was also quick-witted, and immediately said: "Miss is mistaken, this was caused by Servant''s own carelessness."


    "Is that so? "It doesn''t look like it." Xi Jiu Er hesitated. Yun Qing Ran also came over and said, "That''s right, it doesn''t look like it ¡­"


    Chu Ge also said lightly: "I don''t."


    Compared to some of their Miss s, they were much more direct: "You can tell at a glance that you have been beaten up, do you think we are blind?"


    Wen Xiang was at a loss as to what to do, she could only turn and look at Xi Wan Feng, who immediately scolded her cordially: "Why are you so careless, no wonder you are so fidgety and full of injuries."


    Wen Xiang shivered when she saw Xi Wan Feng''s cold and emotionless gaze. She was afraid that she would be in trouble again tonight. He stammered, "Yes, Servant has always been restless. Fortunately, Miss Feng did not mind Servant ¡­" She indirectly put on a tall hat for Xi Wan Feng.


    Originally, Xi Wan Feng thought that there were no flaws, but she made everyone feel extremely disgusted with her actions. Xi Wan Feng''s image in everyone''s eyes was immediately reduced.


    Xi Wan Feng also felt that everyone''s attitude towards him had changed, and he hated Xi Jiu Er to the core. It was all Xi Jiu Er''s fault. If not for the fact that everyone''s attitude towards him had changed, how could he?


    However, there was a way to buy it, and she couldn''t hide it from him. She could only make this a small matter.


    Vaguely, Xi Wan Feng heard their soft discussion. Luckily she was able to hold on or else she would have exploded. However, his face became distorted... It was dark when he got into the carriage.


    "Big Sister Feng, I will go and take care of her." Xi Wan Rong shouted in anger.


    "No need." Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "This incident never happened before, if you fight against Xi Jiu Er, I''m afraid you will be at a disadvantage."


    After returning to his residence, Xi Wan Rong immediately told First Lady what happened during the poetry meet. The First Lady slapped the table and scolded: "Wretched girl, you actually dared to do this, you truly owe me a lesson."


    "mother, you have to teach that little bitch Xi Jiu Er a lesson." Xi Wan Rong said angrily: "mother, you didn''t hear what those people said, but you hurt big sister. It''s not worth a penny. Even my daughter is feeling sad for my sister. "


    "Hmm, don''t worry, that little bitch Xi Jiu Er has not found a good way for now. Once mother has a way to deal with her, she will definitely let her off scot-free." First Lady said fiercely. As long as Xi Jiu Er, the evil spirit, was around, the mansion could no longer have peaceful days.


    "mother... Xi Wu Er, what do you plan to do? Wouldn''t it be interesting to let her and Xi Jiu Er bite each other''s fur? " Xi Wan Rong snorted coldly as he calculated.


    "You ¡­" mother has thought of a way to make things difficult for them. " First Lady said lightly: "Don''t worry."


    "mother, what kind of family do you plan for Xi Wu Er to marry?" Xi Wan Rong sat down and asked as he ate his melon seeds. She was just asking out of curiosity.


    "mother has already found a good home for her, Chen San''er from the Chen family." First Lady said indifferently: "Chen San''er''s wife died last year and has been trying to find someone to continue the story. A few days ago, Chen San''er''s mother gave me three thousand silver and told me to find a wife for her son.


    "Chen San''er?" Haha, good marriage. Chen San''er is almost fifty years old, his son is even older than me, it would be great if he could marry her, there''s no need to be a son for Chen San''er, even if he would just become a mother, he should still be a stepmother. Interesting, interesting... But mother, what if Xi Wu Er finds out? " Xi Wan Rong felt that this was interesting, and was just listening to him as a joke.


    "Hehe, your mother naturally has a way. Right now, the only thing we need to do is to stabilize her first. If she finds out, then it''ll be hard to hold on to her hand. We still need her, so it''s not too late to marry her when it''s useless. " First Lady said.


    What they did not know, Xi Wu Er had already heard it clearly. So it turns out that First Lady didn''t even promise her anything, she had already planned to marry her off to a man who could be her father for a long time! They sent people, and everything was a lie. First Lady had been playing with her from the beginning to the end.


    Xi Wu Er felt that he was just an idiot, stupid enough to believe in First Lady. After wandering aimlessly for half a day, he actually arrived at Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard. Hope was suddenly aroused within him.


    Xi Jiu Er was smart, she was sure that she could help him. So when they went into the courtyard, they found Xi Jiu Er resting and told him to come back later. Xi Wu Er found an excuse to send Long Er away while she went to Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard to wait.


    Xi Jiu Er did not have anything to do, as she was discussing Xi Mao''s matter with Xi Wu Er. It was said that Xi Mao liked the fighting crickets. If he didn''t play with the cricket every day, he wouldn''t even be able to eat. Xi Jiu Er thought that there might be a way to go about this. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind, and she asked Liu Shui to come over and whisper a few words to her.


    Liu Shui nodded and laughed: "Don''t worry Miss, I will take care of this matter properly."


    "Mm. Go." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "I am most assured when you do things."


    Liu Xiang came in to inform her that Xi Wu Er was waiting for her outside. Xi Jiu Er was suspicious, why had Xi Wu Er come looking for him today? Thus, Xi Wu Er was allowed to enter ¡­


    And on the other side, First Lady''s father''s letter wrote that he had reported Xi Wan Rong''s and Xi Wan Feng''s birth date to a ''great deity''. The great deity had said that Xi Wan Feng was someone unspeakably noble. As for how expensive it would be, it would depend on the appearance, so let Xi Wan Feng go over and take a look! Xi Wan Feng was elated, but he did not feel tired at all. He immediately packed his luggage and left. First Lady told everyone that her father was sick, and told Xi Wan Feng to return and take care of her for a few days.

    "Little Sister Jiu Er, please don''t remember that I''m a vile person. I beg you, please save my sister." Xi Wu Er kneeled in front of Xi Jiu Er and pleaded in a low voice, with tears streaming down her face, "I just want to marry a good family and get a good future from them, I have no other thoughts ¡­ I am not a descendant like you, with your lowly status, so you can only rely on First Lady for a good way out. I, I was also forced to do this. "


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t say anything as she stared at Xi Wu Er with an expressionless face. She knew of Xi Wu Er''s helplessness, but how much better was her life compared to Xi Wu Er''s in her previous life? After talking for a long time, Xi Wu Er realized that Xi Jiu Er didn''t have any sort of reaction at all. She didn''t know what to say, and in the end, only thought: "Little Sister Jiu Er, I know you want to deal with First Lady, as long as you can find a good future for me, I''ll definitely help you deal with First Lady."


    "You betrayed the First Lady and now that I''ve pledged my allegiance to you, if I don''t help you and tell the First Lady about this, would your life in the palace be good? "It will definitely be very interesting." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly.


    Even though fear appeared on Xi Wu Er''s face, she still wanted to stabilize herself. She opened her mouth a little to curry favor with Jiu Er: "Little Sister Jiu Er, I know that you''re not such a person, right?"


    "It''s hard to say. You know that I have such a clear personality. I will repay those who treat me well, and I will also hurt those who treat me badly. Tell me ¡­" Will I do this to you? " Xi Jiu Er smiled indifferently: "Moreover, I don''t even put First Lady in my eyes. I want to slowly toy with this mother and daughter pair to death.


    The expression in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes was too terrifying. No, it was extremely frightening, and Xi Wu Er no longer dared to look straight at it. In the past, she was only a Xi Jiu Er who knew how to play some tricks. Even the First Lady had fallen into her hands many times, and the fate of the two chosen ones, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng, had nothing to do with her.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er ¡­ As long as you can help me, I''m willing to do anything for you. " Xi Wu Er made up her mind, as long as they were married, even if Xi Jiu Er wanted her to do something, at that time, wouldn''t she be able to reject him?


    What Xi Wu Er was thinking could be seen from her eyes. It was too treacherous, too good at scheming. Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought of a question. If the interests of her and Xi Wan Feng were to clash, what kind of situation would that be?


    "Alright ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled and said: "Tell me, what kind of person do you want to marry? "If you dare to say it out loud, as long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you."


    Xi Wu Er''s body was already broken, his body was ruined, his reputation was also ruined, he no longer had the qualifications to be someone from the concubinage! However, Xi Jiu Er had told her to be bold and say it, and she boldly said: "I want to be the official wife of a high official, even if it isn''t a wife, I want to have the concubinage as well. "That person can''t be too ugly, too old, and too cold ¡­"


    She thought that Xi Jiu Er would despise her and mock her for overestimating her abilities. But there wasn''t anything, Xi Jiu Er was only supporting her chin as though she was thinking about something, her expression was so serious that no one dared to speak up. In just a breath of time, Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Really? What do you think of Han Family Taiyuan? "


    "Han Family Taiyuan?" Xi Wu Er had always been in her boudoir, and was not very familiar with the outside world. However, she was very curious as she had faintly heard this name before.


    "That''s right, Han Family of Taiyuan. Young Master is a young general who was handsome and elegant. After he was injured on the battlefield, he had been recuperating from his injuries." Xi Jiu Er slightly shook, and looked at Xi Wu Er, dumbstruck. She laughed even more happily: "Do you remember now? General Han''s arm is injured, the doctor said that he will need to recuperate for a few years before returning. Do you want a man like that? "


    Do you want a man like that? The right to choose was entirely in Xi Wu Er''s hands, he never thought that he would have such honor! She had heard her servants discuss this General Han before. They all said that he was handsome and extraordinary, and that he was a young man who had not been married since he was on the battlefield all year round. Not long after he returned ¡­ was extremely excited. General Han did not have a wife, and after she marries into the concubinage, she would become the only concubinage. She couldn''t help but start imagining her beautiful future.


    "Good, that''s him!" Xi Wu Er confirmed.


    "Is that so? "That''s good ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Next up, you don''t need to do anything. You only need to wait, and when the time comes, you can listen to my orders."


    "How long?" Xi Wu Er already asked without feeling very ashamed.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows. "Wait for the right time."


    After sending Xi Wu Er off, Liu Xiang said unhappily: "Miss, whatever you need help with for such a bad person, let First Lady find an old man for her to marry to."


    In fact, since Xi Jiu Er had already received the news, First Lady really had such a plan. Her plan was simply to promise Xi Wu Er on the surface, then when Xi Wu Er was used up, she would marry her casually.


    "How do you know I''m being nice to her? On the contrary, I was harming her. " Xi Jiu Er said with a stern expression.


    "Causing her? How many girls in the General Han are envious and want to marry him? You want the five Miss s to marry him for free is too cheap, how can you not take some benefits? " Liu Shui said with dissatisfaction.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded at you: "Liu Shui is becoming more and more intelligent now, I actually didn''t think about it."


    Liu Xiang was already asking impatiently: "Miss said it''s to harm her, how is it done? Servant doesn''t understand! "


    Xi Jiu Er laughed with extreme malice: "You are still young ladies who have yet to leave the pavilion, of course you don''t understand." In her previous life, this matter was still causing quite a stir. After a thousand gold Miss was married to the General Han, he realized that the General Han''s side was not good at all, and was not like a man at all. This was the first reason. The second reason was that the General Han had become extremely irritable due to his own inability to take care of his wife.


    Xi Wu Er, oh Xi Wu Er, how could I possibly see you doing well? You want to live a good life, want a good identity, wow, I promise you!


    Liu Shui understood more than Liu Xiang, he only needed a glance to know what was going on, and then laughed out loud. "Servant, you said it, but would never do it."


    "Liu Shui, you don''t know what''s going on, tell me quickly, tell me!" Liu Xiang was extremely curious, but seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not intend to tell him, she kept yelling for Liu Shui to reveal it to him.


    Liu Shui laughed: "I think the General Han is too injured to be humane!"


    Inhumane? Liu Xiang gave a ''Oh'' taste, "Understood." How tragic would it be for a woman to marry her husband, who could not be humane? And I can''t... Liu Xiang curled her lips: "Serves her right, who let her frame our Miss."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed out loud!


    These few days, the manor was very peaceful. Xi Wu Er still eagerly ran over to serve the First Lady, and still received supercilious looks from Xi Wan Rong. At that time, he had even become Xi Wan Rong''s target of venting his anger. There was no other way, Xi Jiu Er was no longer someone Xi Wan Rong could control. He could only look for Xi Wu Er to vent his anger.


    Xi Jiu Er felt that Xi Wu Er was an intelligent person, it was a pity that her cleverness did not apply to the right path. If she was of the same heart as him, maybe she could help him find a good home for her.


    Xi Jiu Er calculated the time, and saw that she had gotten up early in the morning to get Liu Xiang to dress her up, and said that she was going to see the old Madame! Seeing her excited face, Liu Xiang could not help but ask, "Miss, what are you so happy about?"


    "Hur hur, it''s a long story, so I won''t say it anymore. In short, there''s going to be a good show to watch. You just have to wait." Xi Jiu Er chuckled. She was very happy, her smile was infected with Liu Xiang. She didn''t know what good idea the Miss had, or who would be the unlucky one.


    "Come, let''s go to Old Madame''s courtyard." Xi Jiu Er happily looked at the Old Madame, her expression was as though a great treasure had fallen from the sky as she rejoiced. Along the way, they attracted a lot of attention. Old Madame just woke up, and was in good spirits. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er had come over early to greet him, she could not help but praise: "This girl is getting more and more well-behaved!"


    "That''s right!" mother of joy served her breakfast.


    Xi Jiu Er entered the room and saluted the old Madame with a smile. The old Madame waved her hand and said with a face full of affection, "You woke up so early today? Come, come over and eat with Grandmother. Also, at the same time, tell Grandmother what kind of happy things have happened today. Take a look ¡­ "He''s laughing so hard that his face is covered in flowers."


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er sat down and said: "Last night, my granddaughter had a dream. She dreamt that Grandmother was sitting under the knee of the Buddha, and her entire body was glowing with a golden light. My granddaughter was very happy and quickly came over to tell Grandmother! "


    "Yo!" Is that true? " When the old Madame heard this, she was also so happy that she couldn''t even close her mouth.


    "Of course it''s true. What is your granddaughter doing in the Grandmother?" However, Xi Jiu Er thought in her heart, even if I''m the one who lied to you, what about me? After their dreams and past lives, the old Madame had never paid any attention to her or the mother. If the old Madame could help them a little, how could the First Lady possibly take advantage of this opportunity? The old Madame was not a good person either!


    "Good, good, good!" The old Madame said three good words and ordered the mother of joy: "Go, let''s go to the temple to burn some incense today."


    The mother of joy didn''t dare to say anything to spoil Old Madame''s mood, so she said: "Ok, this old servant will let you old Madame pack your things right now."


    "Go." The old man said with a smile.


    "Grandmother, I want to go too. I want to stay in my residence and wait for my death. My granddaughter wants to follow the Grandmother and stick to the atmosphere of happiness." Xi Jiu Er acted a little like a spoiled child, the old Madame nodded her head and became extremely happy: "Alright, alright, since you''re already in Grandmother, you can''t just go alone, let your Elder Sister Rong follow along too!"


    "The Sister Wu is also with us." Xi Jiu Er started.


    The old Madame paused for a moment, then continued, "Maybe the Sister Wu went to the temple, and when she returns, we''ll be enlightened." What she said made sense. There were some people who could experience enlightenment. What did all this count for?

 C96

    Old Madame nodded her head: "Alright, since that''s the case, then tell your Sister Wu to let her go with us." Very quickly, this news spread across the entire Xi Mansion. Xi Wan Rong spat out: "This little bitch is definitely talking nonsense and doting on you, Grandmother."


    "Rong Er, even if it''s that slut Xi Jiu Er''s trick, we can only endure it. This is sher wisdom. Furthermore, you can''t say such nonsense. Don''t you know the character of the old Madame? If she were to hear your words, I''m afraid that she would dislike you even more. " When First Lady reprimanded Xi Wan Rong, he hoped that Xi Wan Rong had a long brain. Didn''t he see that the old Madame was so happy when she heard this news? You''re still talking nonsense.


    "Hmph." Xi Wan Rong scoffed, "mother, why don''t we take advantage of this opportunity ¡­"


    Xi Wan Rong''s understanding of the meaning was the most incomprehensible to him, so how could the First Lady not understand it? Unfortunately, she was not prepared yet, and thought: When the time comes, we can do whatever we want. If something bad happened to the old Madame on such a happy day, I m afraid it would be difficult to resolve it. "


    "True." When Xi Wan Rong thought about it, it made sense. If the old Madame did not display her might, then so be it. If not, with her family background and abilities, how could she be obedient in front of the old Madame?


    "Let''s go." After First Lady had properly dealt with her daughter, she said: "You can use Xi Wu Er to deal with Xi Xi Jiu Er, and let them bite you!" First Lady sometimes wished that he could teach Xi Wan Rong his entire life''s worth of abilities, but unfortunately, this daughter of his was like a wooden fish to him, and was unable to understand him. Thus, he could only teach her little by little, hoping that she could learn it.


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wu Er said in a low voice: "Daughter will go with Elder Sister Rong."


    "Mm, you want to go?" First Lady glanced at Xi Wu Er who was dressed up carefully. Even though she was dressed up well, she couldn''t compare to her own daughter at all, so First Lady did not take Xi Wu Er seriously. In her opinion, only her own daughter was the best in the world.


    Xi Wu Er saw that First Lady did not even try to make things difficult for herself, and thus, she calmed down from her unease. In her heart, she admired Xi Jiu Er for capturing the First Lady, and after interacting with him for so long, she still did not understand the First Lady. She only knew that she was a venomous snake and scorpion woman. The biggest point was that he loved Xi Wan Rong a lot.


    She thought that Xi Jiu Er did this to prevent her from being punished by the First Lady, but when she thought about how she would have to rely on Xi Jiu Er in the future, if she did not listen to her words, at that time, Xi Jiu Er would not pay attention to her, and would even complain to the First Lady that she was a fence-sitter, what about that?


    Now she was finally relieved.


    Long Er said softly: "I''m so scared of Servant... Miss is truly an extremely beautiful woman today. "


    No matter how foolish Xi Wu Er was, he could see the meaning behind the matter. Xi Jiu Er was fulfilling his promise to marry him to the General Han. At that time when he married to the General Han, how could he be certain that the Zhong Family was not his match? The''s threshold was much higher than the Zhong Family''s!


    Along the way, Xi Wu Er was unable to suppress his excitement. Xi Family had one carriage, but Xi Jiu Er said that his body was not suitable for another carriage, so Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wu Er sat in the same carriage.


    Xi Wan Rong thought about the orders given by the First Lady. and Xi Jiu Er biting off the fur on their mouth was her goal on this trip. The carriage headed towards the outskirts of the city. At noon, the carriage arrived at the temple. This was the temple that the old Madame had prayed for after marrying into the Xi Family.


    In the past, the old Madame would always choose a specific day when she came here. Today, the old Madame came here without even greeting him and did not inform him beforehand.


    There was a magnificent carriage parked at the temple, and a fine horse! Xi Jiu Er heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the horse carriage and steed. It seemed that her prediction was right.


    "Where did this noble person come from?" Old Madame asked.


    "This is the carriage of Mrs. Han Taiyuan." Little Shamei said respectfully as she led the old Madame to one of the rooms. Normally, people like the old Madame who came all the way here would stay for the night. When the old Madame heard that it was the Han Family of Tai Yuan, and then thought of such a magnificent carriage, she immediately knew which family the Han Family of Tai Yuan was from. Tai Yuan Han Family didn''t have any kinship with Xi Family, so Old Madame didn''t need to visit him.


    Xi Wu Er was extremely excited, and felt that he was getting closer and closer to her blissful steps. Her face was flushed from excitement, and seeing that she had lost control of herself, Xi Jiu Er immediately glared at her, waking up her up by a bit.


    Old Madame was walking in front, with Xi Wan Rong and the rest following behind. Xi Jiu Er''s footsteps gradually slowed to a halt as she softly said: "Miss, Servant has heard that there is a young master who is extraordinarily handsome and talented. Servant has heard that this young master is a person who possesses both martial and martial arts skills. It must have been a beautiful thing.


    Xi Jiu Er''s grandfather was a Wei Guogong, so her status was definitely higher than Xi Wan Rong''s. When Xi Wan Rong, who was walking in front, heard what Liu Xiang said, she started to feel disdainful, this little bitch was longing for spring. Xi Wan Rong was a little unbalanced in her heart. If she married into the Han Family, her status would be a little low ¡­ She felt a bit out of balance.


    Xi Jiu Er, you want to marry the Han Family? Xi Wan Rong coldly snorted as he calculated in his heart how he would be able to move Young General Han. At that time, he would see how Xi Jiu Er would marry the Han Family, hahaha ¡­


    Seeing Xi Wan Rong''s change in expression, Xi Jiu Er knew that Liu Xiang''s words were effective. Arriving at the side room of the temple, the leading monk said expressionlessly, "Ladies and gentlemen, there are two male guests staying in the southern courtyard. Ladies and gentlemen, please take note when you enter or leave the temple."


    "We know." The mother of joy beside the old Madame took out a pouch and said: "This is a little bit of scented oil from this old servant!" The monk accepted it expressionlessly. It seemed that he was used to doing this sort of thing.


    "Amitabha, if you need anything, feel free to tell me." He clasped his hands together and left. Xi Wu Er did not go far.


    The mother of joy said indifferently: "Since this master is seated, his status and identity is naturally different."


    Seeing that the mother of joy was slightly unhappy, Xi Wu Er obediently shut her mouth. Xi Wan Rong was thinking, aside from the Young Master Han, who else would be the two male donors staying at this place? She was curious because Xi Jiu Er was guessing too.


    Although the temple emphasized the equality of all living things, and there was no difference in status, in reality, everyone was still the same as always. The people with high status in the temple all had good conditions, and the people with low status in the temple all had very ordinary treatment.


    "Go and check it out." Xi Jiu Er glanced at Liu Xiang. If it wasn''t for the fact that she didn''t need to be a platoon leader, she would have brought Liu Shui along too.


    Liu Xiang said: "Miss, Servant will give you some water to drink." Not long after sshe left, he came back with a jug of water. Xi Wan Rong''s suspicions were dispelled, it seemed that Liu Xiang really went to fetch water.


    Xi Wan Rong stood up and brought Si Ping with a cold snort, intending to look for Young Master Han and use his own beautiful appearance to make him his subject under her skirt. Xi Jiu Er knew what she was trying to do. He waited until she left and Liu Xiang whispered in her ear, "Miss, one is Han Family, the other is Young Master Xue."


    Young Master Xue? Haha, the heavens are truly helping me. Xi Jiu Er glanced at the excited Xi Wu Er, and said with a slight smile: "I have a good chance, and you can obtain your wish to become Young General Han''s woman ¡­"


    "Is that so? I will listen to whatever little sister Jiu Er says. " Xi Jiu Er''s confident smile infected Xi Wu Er, but Xi Wu Er unconditionally trusted Xi Jiu Er, so she could only trust Xi Jiu Er!


    "Hehe ¡­" Liu Xiang, give this item to Miss Wu. " Xi Jiu Er instructed. Liu Xiang took out a kernels from her bosom. The kernels was a very normal thing, there was a normal flower embroidered on it. Xi Wu Er asked while holding it in her hand: "Little Sister Jiu Er, what is the meaning of this?"


    "Once you see Young Master Han, wet this kernels, Young Master Han will not be able to let you go." Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed: I''m afraid that when the time comes, Sister Wu will suffer a little pain.


    Xi Wu Er laughed at himself: "It''s just a pain in the flesh, what''s more bitter than that man''s days of being neither a human nor a ghost?"


    Since she said it like that, Xi Jiu Er did not say anymore and passed his plans to Xi Wu Er. Xi Wu Er nodded his head: "Alright, when the time comes, I will follow Sister Jiu Er''s request."


    "Sister Wu, you only have this one chance. Let''s see how you grasp the opportunity then. "In short, I''ve already given you your choice of a road. It will depend on how you walk on your own." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "If you marry the Young Master Han, at that time, even father and old Madame will look at you in a different light, and First Lady will not be able to do anything to you."


    Xi Jiu Er''s words undoubtedly gave Xi Wu Er a huge enticement, as she treated the kernels as if it was a treasure and stored it in her bosom. She then instructed Liu Xiang: "Go and give Old Madame some pointers, ask if we can walk around as we wish. Since Elder Sister Rong has gone, we believe that we can go as well. "


    "Yes." Liu Xiang pondered over these words and came up with an idea. When Liu Xiang came back, he brought back a piece of news, which said that mother of joy had personally gone to find Xi Wan Rong, that he had asked Xi Wan Rong to read the scriptures, and that they would be burned to Buddha.


    "Hur hur." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly: "mother of joy must have had a hard day, let''s go look for Elder Sister Rong. If there is nothing wrong with the Sister Wu, we can just copy the scriptures.

 C97

    Although he did not understand Xi Jiu Er''s intention, Xi Wu Er nodded and said, "What Little Sister Jiu Er said is extremely true."


    Before Xi Wan Rong could find the Young Master Han, she was found by the mother of joy. mother of joy''s face darkened as he saw the direction she was going, and blocked Xi Wan Rong''s path: "The Old Madame has instructed the Miss Rong to copy the ''Diamond Sutra'', and then burn it to Buddha."


    It was reasonable that he did not prepare the scripture in a hurry. Xi Wan Rong laughed awkwardly: "Yes, I will go back now!"


    "No need, follow this old servant to see the old Madame, the old Madame said that he wants to see you plagiarize him." The mother of joy said indifferently. She thought that Xi Wan Rong was truly a wild person, to be able to see a man in such a short period of time, it was truly shameless. After all, Xi Wan Rong was the Miss, and not only was he the direct descendant of the prettiest woman, he was also the prettiest.


    "Alright." The corner of Xi Wan Rong''s mouth twitched. When she returned, even the Old Madame''s face had turned green. She finished writing in about an hour. She was thinking that she still had more to do, so she had to hurry.


    Old Madame saw that the handwriting was neat, and did not pick at her, but waved her off. When Xi Wan Rong left and heard what the mother of joy had to say, his face turned ugly, "Look at all the daughters that have been raised, what have they become?"


    mother of joy hurriedly said: "Old Madame, don''t be angry. I think it was unintentional."


    "I watched her grow up. Whether it was intentionally or unintentionally, I naturally understood a bit about her." The old Madame was getting more and more disappointed with the First Lady. She sighed and stood up, "Let''s go, we''ll look for the host and let him show us Jiu Er''s dream!"


    "It must be a wonderful dream." The mother of joy said happily.


    The old Madame smiled and nodded. "I hope so."


    Xi Wan Rong moved her wrist, her face looked bad. She did not need to guess to know that someone had leaked the news, so how did she know about it when she left the Old Madame? Don''t say that she was aware of her movements with her clairvoyant eyes.


    When Xi Wan Rong returned home, she saw Xi Jiu Er obediently copying the scripture. She did not get angry, and only asked: "Where is Xi Jiu Er, that little bitch?"


    "I heard that there was a bamboo forest in the temple and she ran over there." Xi Wu Er tried to curry favor with them.


    Xi Wan Rong planned to rest well when she returned. She had thought about it and knew that Xi Jiu Er had snitched on her earlier, but now, she actually went to the bamboo forest. It was simply too popular. Hence, he angrily went to find Xi Jiu Er.


    They arrived at the bamboo forest very quickly, and wasn''t too far away. When Xi Wan Rong looked around, he found that there wasn''t even the shadow of Xi Xi Jiu Er. Xi Wan Rong didn''t know whether he was a Young Master Han or another Young Master.


    The man was flabbergasted for a moment, and couldn''t react for a long time. Xi Wan Rong was so beautiful that the man couldn''t even think of anything. Xi Wan Rong was very proud, but at the same time, he was also very afraid of who this person was. Other than Si Ping, there was no one else by his side. It seemed like there were very few people who came here ¡­


    How could Xi Wan Rong still dare to stay? She immediately turned around and left. The man behind her was completely captivated by her actions. How could he be willing to let her go? He immediately caught up to and blocked Xi Wan Rong''s path and said, "Miss, please wait a moment ¡­"


    "What are you doing?" Xi Wan Rong screamed as he instinctively took a step back. The man thought that Xi Wan Rong was about to leave and immediately said: "Miss, you cannot leave."


    "You!" Xi Wan Rong''s face changed, did he really meet a retainer? He shouted, "If you don''t behave yourself, I will shout loudly!"


    "My apologies!" Only then did the man wake up and apologize to Xi Wan Rong. From the looks of it, he was very sincere, and Xi Wan Rong relaxed a bit, but he still maintained his vigilance, and when he turned to leave, he accidentally stepped on a rock that was protruding from the ground, and immediately cried out ''Ah'', his body tilted to the side as though he was going to fall. The man quickly supported Xi Wan Rong, pulling Xi Wan Rong into his embrace! Xi Wan Rong''s face changed, if she was found out, what kind of reputation would she have?


    "You, what are you doing? Hurry up and let go!" Xi Wan Rong was both shocked and embarrassed. Si Ping walked up to the man and threw him off as he shouted, "You lecher, what are you doing!?"


    "Elder sister, what are you doing?" Xi Jiu Er didn''t know when she was standing nearby, but her expression was a bit cold. Afraid that she was going to complain to the old Madame again, she immediately replied, "I didn''t do anything." She wanted to hide the fact that Xi Jiu Er had raised his eyebrow: "Elder sister and this Young Master are old acquaintances?"


    "You, you are slandering me, how could I possibly be friends with this lecher!" Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was planning to throw a dirty water on him, Xi Jiu Er felt like her entire body was going to explode, she was furious.


    "Let''s go." Xi Wan Rong hurriedly left with Si Ping, thinking to himself that they would deal with Xi Jiu Er later.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that the man had a very elegant demeanor, he truly was a person that cannot be judged by appearances, who would have thought that such a man would not only be fine, but also have a special hobby? With his perverted and violent personality, he had a few more concubines after his marriage. It was said that they were all tortured to death by him.


    The man realised that Xi Jiu Er was staring at him and thought about his previous actions in embarrassment, "I was rude."


    "She is our Palace''s Miss ¡­" Liu Xiang, who was standing beside Xi Jiu Er, whispered, "Miss Wu...


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly shouted: "Shut up, you do not have the right to speak here."


    As calm as a cicada, Xi Jiu Er said: "Let''s go."


    The youth''s mind was filled with thoughts of who that family member was. Not long after, a servant came over and asked: "My Young Master, why did you come here? "But it''s so hard to find a servant."


    This young man was none other than Young Master Han ¡ª Han Chang Sheng.


    "Go and check if there are any Miss s from the big families among the pilgrims present today, or any of the Five Miss s. Go and scout for me." Han Chang Sheng muttered to himself.


    Seeing that it was the first time that his young master was interested in someone else''s Miss, the servant was so happy that he immediately agreed and ran out. The servant had already investigated and found out. The one who came was the Xi Mansion, the Miss who said that the Miss was the concubine who gave birth to the Miss, Ranked fifth in the younger generation.


    "Good, good, good."


    Xi Wan Rong hurriedly went back, and did not know that her figure appeared in the eyes of another ¡ª ¡ª Young Master Xue. Young Master Xue was already seeing things. He rubbed his eyes and asked the servant: "Did this Young Master see wrongly? Is that person Xi Mansion Xi Wan Rong?"


    "Yes, this servant saw it too." The attendant hurriedly said.


    This Young Master Xue was originally free and unrestrained, but unfortunately, his nature did not change. Xue Master was unable to point his finger and send him to the temple to cultivate, for Young Master Xue had too many things to do, where in the temple could he be trapped? As a result, he secretly told the manservant to disguise the woman in the brothel as a guest to fool around with him. Everything was done secretly, and no one from the temple found out, even if they did, the Young Master Xue would just send the money.


    "Hehehehe ¡­" Tonight, Young Master is going to have a feast ¡­ " Young Master Xue''s eyes turned and he had a thought.


    At night, Xi Wan Rong was closely watched by the people of the Old Madame and could not leave at all. Xi Jiu Er, on the other hand, could freely enter and exit. Thinking of the huge difference in treatment between her and him, his heart was unbalanced! The old Madame also separated Xi Wu Er from him. Xi Wu Er copied the scriptures very regularly, the old Madame liked it very much, so he let her live alone.


    "Young Master, Young Master... "Just now, there was a little Shame who gave this to this servant, this servant does not recognize the character." In the room, Young Master Han''s mind was filled with thoughts of that beautiful young girl. So what if she was born from a concubine? He didn''t even care! After finding out the news, he found out that she wasn''t married yet. At that time, he would come to propose marriage, and with his identity as the Xi Family, he would definitely agree.


    Opening the note the manservant had given him, he immediately became excited. "The beauty promised me in the middle of the night. This is great. I could tell she was interested in me. It can''t be wrong, it can''t be wrong."


    In the middle of the night, as Xi Wan Rong was sleeping soundly, he suddenly felt movement on his bed. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly saw a black shadow. Xi Wan Rong turned pale with fright. He wanted to scream, but the man held his mouth back.


    What did he want? Xi Wan Rong was extremely shocked. What else can a man like Young Master Xue do when he runs here in the middle of the night? She thought that she was done for, and she couldn''t say anything about it either, but she was unwilling to let this bastard get away with it. Thus, she came up with a plan, "I''m not struggling, and I''m not shouting. I just wanted to tell you, my little sister Jiu Er isn''t far from me. "You''re sneaking around ¡­"


    Xi Wan Rong gave the Young Master Xue a look. The Young Master Xue felt that Xi Wan Rong was indeed beautiful, but seeing too many beautiful women wasn''t too new of a feeling. On the other hand, the woman called Xi Jiu Er had the most beautiful skin he had ever seen before.


    Young Master Xue''s interest was piqued by Xi Wan Rong, he thought that it was getting late, and it was better to take care of his own business, hence he nodded his head: "Hehe, but first let me handle it ¡­"


    "Hmph, there are only a few hours left before the sky turns dark. If you don''t hurry up, you can just watch as the opportunity quietly passes by." Xi Wan Rong stirred the Young Master Xue: "That little sister of mine has good skin. If you taste what you have given her, he should be yours.


    "Alright." Young Master Xue did not waste any time.


    Just at this moment, there was a commotion outside, and I heard Si Ping''s voice from outside: "Miss, the old granny on duty said that she saw someone breaking into our section, she was afraid that the old Madame might have something or someone that she didn''t want people to take a look at, they are searching right now, Jiu Er''s house is being searched, it will be our turn soon."


    Si Ping slept soundly. When Young Master Xue entered the room, he found that there was a disturbance inside, but he did not dare to reveal it. I''m afraid I''ll be punished after this.

 C98

    Hearing Si Ping''s report, the faces of the two of them changed at the same time. Xi Wan Rong, on the other hand, thought that if they found out, he would definitely die, but this time it was the old Madame who was here and no one wanted to protect him.


    "Quickly jump out of the window. If you find out, neither you nor I will have any good results." Xi Wan Rong was terrified, he immediately told Young Master Xue that he had already thought of a way to deal with this.


    Fortunately, the two of them did not start. Young Master Xue organized a bit before jumping out of the window without saying anything.


    Xi Wan Rong was a little afraid that Xi Wan Rong would order Si Ping to come and help him put on her clothes. Fortunately, Xi Wan Rong was thinking of ways to deal with this matter and wasn''t in the mood to care about the maid.


    At this time, there was movement outside, it was the figure of mother of joy. Xi Wan Rong walked out with hazy eyes and said: "What''s going on, why is there such a commotion?"


    Aside from the old Madame, everyone else was there as well. They listened to the old mother of joy instructing the old women to take a look at Xi Wu Er''s house. Xi Wu Er''s room was not far away from his. Originally, this was a matter of the temple, but the old Madame, for the sake of her own reputation, even considered searching for it herself.


    The group of people realized that Long Er was lying at the door. With such a large commotion, she actually still wasn''t awake, and even when the servants went up to call out to her, she didn''t react. The expression on mother of joy''s face changed slightly as she said, "She''s unconscious." She thought, not good, could it be that someone kidnapped Miss Wu?


    "mother of joy, the door is locked. It cannot be opened." A woman said.


    "Bang!" The mother of joy immediately ordered, hoping that Xi Wu Er was in the house. After the door was opened, the wives held the lanterns and looked around to find no one. mother of joy''s heart sank, something bad was about to happen.


    "All of you go find him, do not reveal ourselves. Just say that we''ve lost someone, do not let the word out of your mouth. If the word has leaked out, do not blame me for being impolite." mother of joy''s face was especially gloomy in the darkness, the servants immediately separated to look for Xi Wu Er.


    Since he did not dare reveal it, he could only look around. mother of joy suddenly thought that there were two male pilgrims staying here, and sent people to find out where he could find them in the middle of the night.


    mother of joy often visited the temple with the old Madame, so they were relatively familiar with each other, and it was not the first time he brought his family members this way.


    "I''ll leave this place to mother of joy. I''ll go take a look at him." Xi Jiu Er''s face was filled with worry as she brought Liu Xiang to Old Madame''s room. Xi Wan Rong was unwilling to be left behind, so he naturally had to go with her, her granddaughter.


    The old Madame was very worried, her gloomy face showing that she was very anxious. Xi Jiu Er knew that she was not worried for Xi Wu Er, but was instead worried for the reputation of the Xi Family.


    "Don''t worry Grandmother ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was about to say something when Xi Wan Rong quickly said, "That''s right Grandmother, Little Sister Wu will be fine."


    Hearing this, the old Madame became even more annoyed. It was so late in the night and the servant girl had been knocked unconscious, there was no one in the room. Even a fool would know what happened.


    "Shut up." The more he looked at it, the more Xi Wan Rong felt annoyed and disgusted.


    Xi Wan Rong''s face stiffened as he closed his mouth in embarrassment. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s mocking gaze on him, he wanted to curse but didn''t dare to do so. He was afraid that the old Madame would curse him again.


    "Grandmother, mother of joy knows what to do. She has followed you for many years now, Grandmother should believe that you will properly handle this matter." Xi Jiu Er said.


    The old Madame felt that Xi Jiu Er''s words were considerate, that''s right, mother of joy had followed her old man after marrying into the Xi Family, she knew her abilities well. Unconsciously, she relaxed. "Yes."


    Xi Wan Rong saw that Xi Jiu Er''s few words caused the old Madame to feel good, and her heart became unbalanced! Then he said: "Grandmother, Rong Er is very worried, and also wants to follow mother of joy to find him."


    Old Madame glanced at Xi Wan Rong. This granddaughter of hers had the wildest heart, so she couldn''t be at ease. Just as she wanted to reject Xi Jiu Er, she said: "Grandmother, let Elder Sister Rong go. It is rare for Elder Sister Rong to know the importance of siblings." These words hurt Xi Wan Rong, saying that she had never paid attention to brotherly feelings before.


    Xi Wan Rong''s heart was filled with rage, but she didn''t dare to be presumptuous in front of the old Madame, so she could only bite her lips and curse Xi Jiu Er to death.


    "Alright, you can follow along. Bring the people in my room along, and we can look after each other." Unexpectedly, the old Madame actually agreed. Xi Wan Rong could only bite the bullet and say, "Yes, I''ll go look for granddaughter right away." She looked at Xi Jiu Er, and calculated that Xi Jiu Er would definitely go with her, and at that time, she would ¡­ Humph ¡­


    How could Xi Jiu Er not understand the scheming in her eyes? She laughed as she held onto the old Madame''s arm: "There has to be someone that stays behind to accompany Grandmother. Elder Sister Rong, quickly go." Xi Jiu Er was the youngest, of course the old Madame would not let her go, so he nodded: "Go quickly, go early and come back early."


    Xi Wan Rong''s silver teeth were about to shatter, she had no choice but to bring her maidservants to find someone. Xi Wan Rong and her servants searched aimlessly. Gradually, she felt tired and went back. It was just a show anyway.


    When he returned, he saw two women holding onto a person. Could it be that this was the thief? She was about to say something when she heard the man''s unkind tone. "You two old wives, stop! Do you hear me? I am the empress dowager''s nephew ¡­" You don''t have long ears, do you? "


    Who else could it be other than the Young Master Xue? Xi Wan Rong''s ears were ringing, Young Master Xue was just a stupid pig, if he was in a rush, he would say whatever he wanted to say, what should he do? Xi Wan Rong shouted: "Let go, he is indeed Young Master Xue."


    "Miss Rong?" The two of them were from the old Madame, so they naturally wouldn''t listen to Xi Wan Rong. "Miss Rong mustn''t be fooled by this b * tch, this Young Master Xue is the empress dowager''s nephew, how could he be so sneaky ¡­"


    "Bullshit, what do you mean by sneaking around? Can''t Yours Truly just walk around at night?" Young Master Xue began to curse loudly, "You two old granny, quickly untie your bodies for me, otherwise I will skin you alive."


    "Miss Rong, he really is Young Master Xue." One of the women said.


    "Yes." Xi Wan Rong said: "I have seen Young Master Xue, I recognize him."


    This time, the two women immediately stopped. "Young Master Xue, please forgive us. This old servant did not know that it was you. It was very normal for them to have seen Young Master Xue and recognize their wrongs.


    Young Master Xue snorted: "It''s good that you guys know. If there''s nothing else, I''ll be going."


    "Wait!" Although Servant has never seen Young Master Xue''s face before, I heard that he was very elegant and relaxed, but looking at your tattered clothes and the mud plastered on your face, maybe you look a little similar to him. I might as well bring you back and have the old Madame speak up. The old Madame has seen the old Young Master Xue, so she will definitely recognize you. " How could they possibly not recognize Young Master Xue? If they did, it was because they did not recognize him previously, but Xi Wan Rong had reminded them before.


    Initially, the old granny had agreed to release him, but after thinking about it, if they let him go and the Young Master Xue bit back, and heard that the Young Master Xue had a bad temper, they would just be slaves. However, if he gave it to the old Madame, he would be able to escape calamity.


    The two old women looked at each other. They understood each other''s intentions. As servants, they weren''t human beings. Another old granny agreed, "That''s right, we should let Old Madame take a look first. "Maybe she was a thief when she was sneaking around just now."


    "You two old dogs, I''m the empress dowager''s only nephew, yet you call me that. Even your Master has to be more respectful towards me, not to mention an old Madame. Hurry up and release me, I''ll pretend that nothing happened, otherwise ¡­ I''ll beat you guys to death. "


    The two old wives saw that he did not put Xi Hong Sheng in his eyes, and was overjoyed, saying immediately: "You, you are definitely not Young Master Xue, why would Young Master Xue say such words?"


    The two old grannies didn''t even bother to greet Xi Wan Rong and brought the tied up Young Master Xue to see him. Xi Wan Rong shouted anxiously, "You two dog slaves, why aren''t you letting him go? He is the genuine Young Master Xue."


    One of the two old granny spoke in a clever tone: "Miss Rong, Old Madame has spoken. We cannot let anyone who is suspicious of the way she travels go, this old servant is also following Old Madame''s orders."


    Xi Wan Rong angrily stomped his feet, and followed behind them, thinking that Young Master Xue was better off not spouting nonsense.


    Inside the house, the old Madame was resting with her eyes closed. The servants outside said that they caught a suspicious looking man, said that he was the empress dowager''s nephew, and even said that he and her son were at fault, so she got angry. Xi Wu Er''s whereabouts were still unknown, but he had captured a man. No matter if it was the Young Master Xue or not, they would not let him go.


    Seeing that the old Madame was angry, the two old wives heaved a sigh of relief and immediately threw him to the old Madame!

 C99

    When the old Madame saw that Yue Yang''s clothes were tattered and tattered, she even had a face full of stains. Her hair was a lot disheveled, and with a glance, he knew that this was not a good thing. The old Madame''s expression changed as she shouted, "You thief, why aren''t you telling me where you hid him?"


    This man was indeed Young Master Xue, he had been holding in his anger the moment he came out of Xi Wan Rong''s room, and had sent the servant back to see if there was any fortuitous encounters. He might be able to find a maid by mistake and say maybe! And so, with this attitude, the Young Master Xue began to wander around the temple, and was caught by them ¡­


    He wanted to make the two old women to let him go, but no matter what the two old women said, they would not listen to him. He hated them so much that his teeth itched, and with a thought, he understood.


    He had not even explained when he heard the old Madame tell him what kind of person was hiding? He was stunned and did not understand. Unfortunately, his face showed an expression that could not be seen, the old Madame thought that he was stubborn and did not say a word, and immediately became angry: "Alright, you despicable thief, you dare not speak, you will be beaten."


    mother of joy and the rest had not come back yet, so the only things that could be used in the house now were two old grannies. The two old grannies were groaning in their hearts, in the end, they were beaten to death and suffered greatly. As a result, an old granny went to gag, an old granny went out to find a small rod, and slapped Young Master Xue''s body. The Young Master Xue wailed in pain as he spat out the kernels s in his mouth: "You old thing, you dare hit me? "Watch me kick you guys to death."


    An old granny was kicked by Young Master Xue, who pointed at her wife Madame and scolded: "You actually dared to hit me, do you know who I am? I''m a dignified Young Master Xue, the empress dowager''s only nephew. Are you tired of living? "


    "Insolent bastard, you actually dare to say such filthy words. Let''s see if I''ll beat you to death today or not." After she finished speaking, she walked forward and ruthlessly slapped Young Master Xue a few times. Young Master Xue held in his breath as he looked angrily at Xi Jiu Er, but he realized that Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were the deepest they had ever seen for her.


    Xi Wan Rong bit her lips, knelt in front of the old Madame, and said: "Grandmother, he is indeed Young Master Xue."


    "Young Master Xue? You say you are the Young Master Xue? Then, can Young Master Xue please tell me what are you planning to do by not sleeping in the middle of the night? " The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth widened into a smile, "Don''t say that you couldn''t sleep in the middle of the night and came out to admire the flowers and admire the moon."


    "¡­" Young Master Xue opened his mouth and actually planned to say it like that. But before he even had the chance to speak, Xi Jiu Er eagerly asked him: "Let me ask you, did you kidnap my Sister Wu?!


    "What Fifth Sister and Sixth Sister? I don''t know what you''re talking about." Young Master Xue scolded, "You bunch of dogs, I''m the empress dowager''s nephew."


    She said that the old thing had already included the old Madame and now that she said dog stuff, the old Madame marrying into the Xi Family was also a form of respect. No one in the Xi Family dared to be so impudent towards her now, and her conduct and actions were not criticized in the outside world.


    "You still don''t know where Sister Wu went, but you know who my family''s Sister Wu is? You can rest assured that when the time comes for you to openly propose to us, we will definitely betroth Sister Wu to you. " Xi Jiu Er knew in her heart that he was Young Master Xue, and she seemed to be conflicted over her. As long as he said that he was together with Xi Wan Rong just now, he could get rid of any suspicions with Xi Wan Rong as witness.


    Young Master Xue had stayed in Xi Mansion for a period of time, so she knew clearly in his heart how many Miss s there were. Just say how beautiful the Five Miss s were, but she, Young Master Xue, did not think much of them! Looking at Xi Jiu Er, this kind of woman was not gentle at all, could it be that she was faking her gentleness before?


    "Yes. As long as you say where the person is, I will definitely confirm your marriage." The old Madame''s eyes turned, he understood Xi Jiu Er''s intention, as long as she could find the person she was looking for, she would think about it later.


    "Pfft, I don''t even like people like them." Young Master Xue said, "Just now, I ¡­" He panicked. If this misunderstanding became bigger, then maybe that lowly concubinage would actually marry him. Wouldn''t he suffer a huge loss?


    Xi Wan Rong almost shrieked as he shouted, "Young Master Xue, how can you say that to Little Sister Wu ¡­" He anxiously said to the old Madame: "Old Madame, Xi Jiu Er is really Young Master Xue." As a result, he lifted the disheveled hair on Young Master Xue''s forehead, and only then could he see a bit more clearly.


    "It really is the Young Master Xue." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Grandmother, he is indeed Young Master Xue."


    Compared to Young Master Xue, her age meant that he had the advantage, but in terms of status, she did not have the advantage. She could only get scolded by Young Master Xue and not retort.


    At this time, the mother of joy finally had some news. They found Xi Wu Er in a dilapidated abandoned house, and the two of them were both naked. The mother of joy ordered people to tie them up while the two of them were sleeping, and then ordered servants to bring Xi Wu Er back.


    When the old Madame heard that the person had found him, she immediately let them go. Knowing that her suspicion was cleared, the old Madame fiercely kicked the two old grannies and cursed at them. Turning her head, he was about to say something to the old Madame. Xi Jiu Er stopped the old Madame and shouted, "Young Master Xue, if you dare to speak rudely to the old Madame, I''ll definitely teach you a lesson! I will definitely tell Master Xue about your behavior and let him decide what to do. Old Madame is so mighty that even Master Xue would give him some respect. As her son, not only are you not filial to your elders, you''re also rude.


    Young Master Xue was different today, he was most afraid of his father. His father had the support of the empress dowager, if they were to know of his actions, who knows how they would punish him. Staring viciously at Xi Jiu Er, he angrily brushed his sleeves and left.


    Xi Wan Rong heaved a sigh of relief. How could such an action escape the sharp eyes of the old Madame for so many years? I''m afraid Xi Wan Rong and this Young Master Xue must have some connections today. Back then, when Young Master Xue was in Xi Mansion, he didn''t seem to be very interested in Xi Wan Rong ¡­ On the contrary ¡­


    Old Madame looked at Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er was extremely magnanimous, she thought she had overthought things.


    The old Madame asked mother of joy to inspect Xi Wu Er''s body. The old Madame shook her head: "No ¡­" She whispered the story of what had happened in front of the old Madame''s ears. The old Madame was stunned, "Is it true?"


    "Yes, it can''t be wrong!" "When this old servant was looking for young mistress Rong, I met this young master in the corridor ¡­" mother of joy frowned. "Mrs. Han followed behind him. I heard from the host''s master that they have already left, why does it have to be ¡­"


    The old Madame also did not understand. After pondering for a while, she said, "Tie him up first, wait for me to think about it before letting him go!" The status of Han Family was not small either. Old Madame had a headache, why did she have to provoke so many people today that she could not afford to offend? Seeing how conflicted the old Madame was, the mother of joy said softly, "Old Madame, there are still another two hours until daybreak. Why don''t you sleep for a while?"


    On this side, Mrs. Han who was fighting on the road noticed that his son was not at the inn in the middle of the night, and immediately became angry. He grabbed hold of the servant and asked: "I ask you, where is Young Master, where are you going?"


    The servant stammered: "Madame, Young Master has returned to the temple."


    "What?" Back to the temple in the middle of the night? What was he doing back in the temple? You don''t have anything to do when you''re full? " Mrs. Han was furious. She came back to rest for a while, and slept for half the night before she asked her son about it. Who knew that her son was missing?


    "Young Master has taken a fancy to a lady in the temple. That lady wishes to meet with Young Master ¡­" The servant said, "So the Young Master went there."


    "A girl?" Mrs. Han was startled, her son was originally a general. It was a pity that although he won the battle with his soldiers, his body was already ruined. I heard that there is a high monk here who is extremely skilled in cultivation. Thus, she forced her son to follow her. She hoped that her son would have a daughter that he liked. If he married, his illness could be slowly cured.


    For the sake of her own son''s flaws, she had no choice but to marry him. But that stubborn son of hers said that no matter what, she had to find someone she liked in order to get married! Sigh ¡­ She didn''t expect the buddhist beads here to be so effective. She had only made a wish and it should be true? It was incredible.


    Therefore, dawn broke, and he went to the temple. Although his son liked that girl, he didn''t like her. He didn''t know what kind of upbringing he had brought up to meet a man in the middle of the night. When she reached the temple, she was invited to go. It turned out to be the Xi Family!


    She was not very clear about the Xi Family, and there were many families that were neither high nor low, but Xi Family previously had the number one beauty, Xi Wan Rong, and then there was first talented girl''s Xi Wan Feng. The two Xi Family sisters really had a lot of topics to talk about.


    Unless they still had Xi Jiu Er, Mrs. Han had heard of all sorts of people. Xi Jiu Er had travelled thousands of miles to ask Senior Sun Kong Ming for a formula to treat smallpox, and this action of his became something that everyone in the capital knew.


    When Mrs. Han saw that her son was tied up, she started to get angry without asking about the situation. Mrs. Han shouted: "What are you Xi Family doing?"


    However, the old Madame still held the truth in this matter, and said with a smile that was yet not a smile: "Mrs. Han, although our Xi Family isn''t a large family in the capital, we aren''t bullying people. I naturally have my reasons for binding the Young Master Han. Mrs. Han must not know what''s going on, so why don''t you ask your son and he will know. "

 C100

    The old Madame was right. It was obviously your son who did something wrong, but he actually had reason? mother of joy brought tea for the old Madame, in order to let the old Madame calm down. Besides the old mother, Madame Mo knew that the old Madame wanted to tell him in private.


    She had a vague idea of what her son had done, but wasn''t he trying to raise her status? Mrs. Han was confused: "My son is just following me to the temple to worship the Buddha, what else can he do?"


    Oh, it was clearly him who was at a disadvantage. Looking at his face, it seemed like he had suffered a lot. Don''t pretend for her, she must know something when she hurried up the mountain. The old Madame snorted, "Young Master Han had an indecent thought after seeing my granddaughter yesterday, so we don''t need to explain what kind of crime she did by bringing her to a remote place in the middle of the night. Mrs. Han, tell me, what else can I say about your son doing such a thing? If you don''t come today, then I''ll send you to the Young Master. We don''t have anything else in the Xi Mansion, so we''ll have a body full of pride. "


    Pui, arrogant? Who doesn''t know that your Xi Mansion''s daughters aren''t good people? This is clearly your Xi Family''s daughter shamelessly trying to seduce people, yet you have the nerve to say such words. The one who was at a disadvantage was the Han Family, not the other party. What official... Your Xi Family would also be a disgrace. At this time, Mrs. Han did not know that Xi Family was born from a bastard.


    Mrs. Han was not afraid of sending off the officials, when the time came, he would just say that it was a woman who seduced the man. The Mrs. Han who had made up his mind asked: "Really? Then let me ask you, did my son do anything over the line against Miss Xi? "


    Old Madame''s face sank. "My granddaughter is no longer a virgin."


    "What?" Mrs. Han already ate it, is she not a virgin anymore? [That means that they are already married to each other. That means their son is better?] Available... Available... His son''s condition this year ¡­ did he take some kind of miracle medicine? No way.


    Seeing that the Mrs. Han did not believe him, the old Madame was startled and furious, "Mrs. Han, would an old granny like me lie to you? Not only is my granddaughter not a virgin, Young Master Han has also admitted it. Otherwise, why would your son obediently prostrate himself on the spot?


    "Tell mother, is this true?" "Are you going to ¡­" The Mrs. Han looked at him uncertainly, meaning for him to tell her the truth, if there was anything she could do as a mother. In her heart, she still hoped that it was true. If it was true, then what did this mean? This meant that her son was better!


    "mother, your son has indeed taken care of Miss Xi ¡­" Young Master Han said with some difficulty.


    What? Really? Mrs. Han looked at his son in disbelief. "You, you ¡­" You want to say that you''ve recovered? However, Old Madame Xi had already shut her mouth. Seeing that he, mother, was so excited, the Young Master Han also felt embarrassed. Thinking back to yesterday, he once again felt the dignity of a man, he recognized that woman.


    Mrs. Han took a few deep breaths before saying, "Alright, since you''ve already killed that Miss ¡­ mother will listen to you and marry that Miss off to you. " As long as he could recover from his fever, as long as his son could be a man again, as long as he could have a grandson, she was willing to do anything. She would be willing to hold that daughter-in-law high in her hands.


    The old Madame was startled. He did not expect the Mrs. Han to agree so readily. Therefore, he said: "Since the Mrs. Han is reasonable, then how about we decide on this matter then?"


    "The fastest." The Mrs. Han chuckled: "It''s all because my son was insensible that such a thing happened. Old Madame, don''t worry, we definitely won''t go back on our words. Once I return, we''ll immediately come knocking and ask for marriage."


    Old Madame nodded his head: "Alright, I just hope that you can treat my granddaughter well."


    "Old Madame, don''t worry. I will definitely treat Miss Xi like my own daughter. I definitely won''t be vague about it." Mrs. Han smiled slightly: "Since this matter has been settled, can you release my son?"


    mother of joy immediately went up to untie Young Master Han, and with a feeling of comfort, he already treated the old Madame as if she was her own family: "This young man is impetuous and impatient, it is inevitable that she will do something wrong, my son is frank and honest, when he saw that the old Miss is a man of heaven, he already fell in love, and that''s why she foolishly did something wrong. It was also because my son genuinely and sincerely loved Xi Family, otherwise, he wouldn''t have done such a bold thing. When I get back, I will definitely teach him a good lesson, and I will definitely apologize to Miss Xi. "


    Mrs. Han''s expression was very sincere, he did not seem to be faking it at all. Old Madame nodded: "Boy, it''s hard to avoid impulse." In fact, if Han Family refused to admit it, then the disgrace would be their Xi Family. Since this matter could be resolved originally, she didn''t say anything to avoid any unnecessary complications. Xi Wu Er was so lucky to be able to reach Young Master Han.


    "My son is too reckless, I will bring my son to go and apologize to Miss Xi." Mrs. Han also wanted to see just what kind of beauty had captivated her son to the core.


    The old Madame knew that she was looking forward to see her future daughter-in-law, so she said: "It''s good that Mrs. Han has such thoughts, I will ask my servant to bring him to meet someone."


    So mother of joy brought Mrs. Han to see Xi Wu Er. There were two Miss s in the room, one was a beautiful and beauties Heavenly Immortal, the other was elegant and agile. The Mrs. Han didn''t know which one his son liked. If one were to look at her, he would think that she was Xi Wan Rong, because only someone with a slightly seductive appearance like Xi Wan Rong would do something like this, where she would hook up with a man in the middle of the night. Without even thinking, he could already tell that the girl in front of him was Xi Wan Rong.


    "Is Mrs. Han here to look for you? This way, please. " Xi Jiu Er bowed, then pointed to Mrs. Han and went to the bedside. The Mrs. Han was curious. Was the woman his son had taken a fancy to in the bed? He glanced at Xi Jiu Er. From the way she was addressed, she should be Xi Jiu Er? The granddaughter of the Wei Guogong?


    Mrs. Han ran onto the bed and looked. On the bed, he saw Xi Wu Er with her eyes closed and her face close. Although she was not as good-looking as Xi Wan Rong and her temperament was not as good as Xi Jiu Er, she was still a beauty. Mrs. Han was not satisfied, but he still had to be satisfied with his son. Mrs. Han asked a few concerned questions, then left.


    There were only three direct descendants of the Xi Family, Xi Wan Feng, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er called her Sister Wu ¡­ Not Big Sister Feng, that means this Miss was born by a bastard? Sigh, forget it, the main thing is that my son likes it.


    When Mrs. Han returned to his room, he hurried over, "How was it? Is she better? "


    "Don''t worry, Xi Family is still unconscious. I asked the doctor, the doctor said he will wake up soon!" Oh you, I''ve never seen you so concerned about mother before, have I? Is it really like having a child but not staying in a house, and when there''s a person you like in your heart, you will no longer like mother? " Mrs. Han pretended to look sad, but she was overjoyed in her heart. Because his son''s body was damaged, she let his son do whatever he wanted, with a look of indifference and indifference. Even towards her own mother, he had nothing to do with it. It was a good thing that there were people she cared about.


    "mother, you ¡­ Since when did my son not like the fact that the mother doesn''t care about the mother? " Young Master Han said somewhat unnaturally. This kind of son made Mrs. Han feel relieved, as if he had returned to the past.


    "Let''s go, we''ll propose when we get back." The Mrs. Han laughed.


    "Alright!"


    "Look at how impatient you are, people who don''t know you think you''re just a kid."


    "mother!"


    mother will not say anymore, I will not say anymore.


    By the side, Xi Wan Rong''s face had already started to warp, even her heart started to warp, she never would have thought that Xi Wu Er would be so lucky to actually be able to get his hands on the Han Family, and that he would be able to concubine his daughter, not only having obtained the attention of the Young Master Han, but also receiving the attention of the Mrs. Han, she was afraid that her married life in the Han Family would be extremely comfortable.


    As Xi Wan Rong hoped that Xi Jiu Er''s plan failed, she was also envious of Xi Wu Er''s fortuitous encounter. Why? Xi Wan Rong bit his lips and stared straight at Xi Wu Er. He really couldn''t tell, she was normally so obedient, but unexpectedly, her heart was actually so deep, and he had really underestimated her.


    "Elder Sister Rong, are you jealous?" Xi Jiu Er and the later generation of Xi Wan Rong no longer need to have any deep sisterly feelings, seeing how Xi Wan Rong''s face is filled with unwillingness, he started to ridicule: "Are you jealous that the Sister Wu is able to cling onto a family like the Han Family, making you jealous?"


    Xi Jiu Er? I won''t let you do as you wish, "Pfft, I don''t even place a mere Han Family in my eyes. Furthermore, what is Xi Wu Er? Do I even need to be jealous of her? "Humph!"


    A mere Han Family? Xi Jiu Er said meaningfully, "That''s right, he is merely a mere Han Family. Compared to the Xue Family, how can Young Master Han be compared on the same level as Young Master Xue? mother has already warned Elder Sister Rong not to interact too much with you, but you just didn''t want to listen. Last night, you and Young Master Xue had a secret meeting, so don''t think that I didn''t know about it. "


    "Xi Jiu Er, you''re slandering us!" Xi Wan Rong screamed.


    "I''m not wrong, am I? Elder Sister Rong, you swear that you were not with Young Master Xue last night? If what you say is a lie, then you will die of a thunderbolt and a pus will fester on your face. " Xi Jiu Er approached Xi Wan Rong step by step. Xi Wan Rong was so afraid that she did not retreat at all.


    "Swear, do you dare?" Xi Jiu Er mocked.


    "You ¡­ Why would I make such an oath? Furthermore, who are you? Why should I tell you all this?" Xi Wan Rong found his own voice and boldly and confidently forced her way back, but because she lacked the confidence, she seemed to want to cover it up. That oath was too vicious for her to swear.


    "Hehe, all the years are good, people are just watching. It''s not that they did not report it, it''s just that the time is not right yet, Xi Wan Rong, all the wicked things that you have done will be punished sooner or later." Xi Jiu Er said word by word. At this moment, as she spoke, she couldn''t help but burst out the anger and resentment in her heart.

 C101

    Xi Wan Rong had never seen Xi Jiu Er like this. Previously, even though Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were filled with dense hatred, she felt as if Xi Jiu Er was a monster who was taking her life. Xi Wan Rong was unable to look into those eyes that just appeared from hell and fled in fear.


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Standing at the door, almost collided with the mother of joy without him noticing. mother of joy''s eyes flashed as she moved a little away. She looked at Xi Wan Rong''s back and said, "Miss Rong, Old Madame has asked us to clean up a bit and go down the mountain."


    "mother of joy, are we leaving?" Xi Jiu Er''s sharp ears, had actually long known that mother of joy was standing outside. Only now did she say what she had just said, but as she continued to speak, her fury revealed her true nature.


    "Yes, the old Madame said that we can return to the residence now." The mother of joy laughed: "I have already brought Old Madame''s words with me. I will be leaving now."


    "Take care, mother of joy." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    In the house, Long Er had been beaten ten times by the old granny for failing to guard the house properly, and only then did she walk over. Xi Jiu Er instructed her and Liu Xiang to pack their stuff while she sat down and waited for Xi Wu Er to wake up.


    "Mmm mmm ¡­" Xi Wu Er slowly opened her eyes. When she saw that it was Xi Wan Rong, she immediately said joyfully: "Little Sister Jiu Er, thank you." She thought to herself, what kind of treasure is this? It doesn''t look like she''s in a coma, but it''s actually very fresh. She can clearly hear everything people outside say. Mrs. Han came to see her and she knew of it.


    "Congratulations Sister Wu! She will find a matchmaker to propose a marriage when we get back."


    "This is great." Xi Wu Er frowned and was a little worried: "But what if the people from the Zhong Family came looking for us?"


    "What are you afraid of? When the time comes, you will tell the First Lady. If the Zhong Family doesn''t want the to help you, then you will go all out and tell Zhong Tang Jun that the one he loved the most was his woman, Xi Wan Feng. Compared to your marriage, her daughter''s reputation is the most important. " Xi Jiu Er said.


    "This ¡­" From the bottom of his heart, Xi Wu Er was unwilling to let go of the First Lady. At that time, no matter what First Lady they had, they could just help out.


    Seeing Xi Wu Er''s hesitation, Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly: "You can handle this matter on your own. I''ll just take it as a sign that I''ll repay you with all these years of sisterly feelings, your life and death in the future have nothing to do with me."


    Xi Wu Er tugged on Xi Jiu Er''s arm with a pleading look on her face: "Little Sister Jiu Er, don''t go, I''ll just listen to you. I have never treated her as my own mother, I''m just like you, drinking with the same mother and daughter. Little Sister Jiu Er, we are like grasshoppers tied together on a rope, you can''t ignore me."


    She could imagine what would happen to her if Xi Jiu Er ignored her. Xi Jiu Er was deeply liked by the old Madame, as long as the old Madame agreed to the marriage, what tricks would the First Lady dare to play? Moreover, she still wanted to get some of that miraculous medicine from Xi Jiu Er in case of an emergency.


    "Let go." Xi Jiu Er frowned and said in disgust: "I''ve already said it clearly just now, I will no longer interfere in your matters." After shaking off Xi Wu Er''s hands, she had already pushed Xi Wu Er into the abyss.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er!" Xi Wu Er wanted to pull Xi Jiu Er''s sleeves, but Liu Xiang shook her off: "Five Miss, this is the end of the matter. My Miss has already told you everything."


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, I beg you ¡­" Xi Wu Er begged, but unfortunately, she had steeled his heart ¡­ She was suddenly at a loss and did not know how to proceed in the future, how to deal with the First Lady. Without Xi Jiu Er to advise her, telling her how to proceed would be very difficult for her.


    On the way back, Xi Wu Er and Xi Wan Rong were still in the same carriage. Xi Wan Rong had slapped Xi Wu Er twice, and Xi Wu Er''s face immediately flushed red. The master and servant pair were as silent as cicadas in winter, and Long Er hid behind Xi Wu Er, trying his best to shrink himself.


    "You slut, you dare to seduce a man? Do you not want to live?" Xi Wan Rong was angered when she saw Xi Wu Er''s beautiful and wronged appearance, "You''re still feeling wronged, aren''t you? B * tch, b * tch, you and Xi Jiu Er are both b * tches! Don''t forget, you''re not a clean body anymore. If Zhong Family knew, what would happen? "


    Xi Wan Rong glared at Xi Wu Er viciously, she did not want Xi Wu Er to marry to the Han Family, at that time it would definitely not be easy to get her to marry.


    Xi Wu Er''s face changed, he was extremely resentful, and there was already the smell of blood in his mouth. Indeed, it was as Xi Jiu Er had predicted, now that Xi Wan Rong was threatening him with the Zhong Family, he was afraid that it would make things even more difficult for him.


    "Hmph, I''ll deal with you when I get back." Xi Wan Rong snorted coldly, she was calculating in her mind about how to turn the situation around, and in her mind, Xi Wu Er was just trying to figure out if she should listen to Xi Jiu Er''s advice.


    Inside the carriage of the old Madame, the mother of joy rubbed her shoulder and said, "Old Madame, the dream of the Miss is wonderful. Look, a marriage was made just like that."


    Old Madame would never have thought that she would be able to make it to the Han Family. She could not help but chuckle, it could be considered a good start! The old Madame thought about her remaining granddaughters and frowned. "You really heard what Jiu Er has to say?"


    "When this old servant heard Miss Jiu Er''s words, although Miss Rong Wan retorted, this old servant felt that ¡­" Not trustworthy. The old Madame snorted: "A lowly bone, never crying before seeing the coffin. With her temper, she will definitely suffer a lot at that time."


    How could a perfectly fine girl turn out like this just like that? Could it be that Xi Wan Rong had this kind of personality all along, that she was just pretending to be obedient in front of him? From the looks of it, it was better to let her suffer than to educate her. She did not know that even if Xi Wan Rong suffered, he did not improve at all.


    After returning to the residence, Xi Wan Rong angrily took Xi Wu Er to see the First Lady. Xi Wu Er was a little terrified, and did not know how the First Lady would treat him. From the moment she got out of the carriage to the time Xi Jiu Er returned home, she had never once glanced at Xi Wu Er. Her ice-cold and heartless back view was like a hand grabbing onto Xi Wu Er''s throat, causing her to be unable to breathe.


    "What''s wrong?" First Lady, seeing his daughter coming over angrily, thought that she could not stand the cold air of the temple, so he said: "What''s wrong? mother has already prepared some pastries that you like, quickly come and eat them. "


    "mother!" Xi Wan Rong angrily sat by First Lady''s side and pouted: "mother, you better take care of this little bitch Xi Wu Er."


    Xi Wu Er revealed an uneasy expression as he looked at First Lady. He timidly called "mother" and obediently stood at the side, like a child who had done something wrong. Seeing her like this, Xi Wan Rong became angry: "mother, you better not be deceived by her like this, this slut is too scheming."


    Oh? First Lady raised his eyebrows, "What happened exactly? Si Ping, you speak. " She did not allow Xi Wan Rong to say nor did she make Xi Wu Er say anything. Instead, she made a servant say something.


    Just like Xi Wan Rong, the First Lady was also unhappy. This little concubinage actually married the Han Family, and the Mrs. Han still wants to find a matchmaker? First Lady''s face immediately changed, and he shouted: "Really? Is what Si Ping said true? "


    Xi Wu Er kneeled on the ground: "mother, I don''t know what happened to Wu''er, but my daughter has never met that Young Master Han before, so there is no way for my daughter to know about what happened.


    First Lady suspected that his daughter had set a trap for Xi Jiu Er, and then was used by Xi Jiu Er? She glanced at Xi Wan Rong, and seeing that he was still so furious, she asked Xi Wu Er''s servant Long Er what she had done, and if she had the slightest clue as to why he had done it, she would definitely beat him to death.


    Xi Wu Er secretly twisted his handkerchief, she did not know whether Long Er was loyal to her or not, so every time she met Xi Jiu Er, she would secretly push him away, afraid that he was sent by First Lady. Thus, ever since she had become sensible, she would not treat the maidservants by her side sincerely and always obediently and conscientiously. She would only quietly inquire about whatever had happened in the mansion, looking for opportunities to seek better development.


    Hearing Long Er''s description, the First Lady could conclude that Xi Wu Er had never met the Young Master Han before, then why did the Young Master Han kidnap her? That was unreasonable!


    "First Lady, mother of joy is here." As the servant said this, the mother of joy walked over happily and greeted them, "First Lady, congratulations! The five Miss s are going to marry Young Master Han, this is the first marriage of our family! The old Madame said that the person in question is Han Family, so we can''t do it in such a simple and crude manner."


    "Is that so? That''s great, that''s why I asked the servant what''s going on! " First Lady snorted in his heart. What do you mean by not being able to control it too roughly? Even if she, a concubine, were to marry into a concubinage, how could she maintain his dignity? Am I going to surpass direct daughter? She deserved it.


    mother of joy laughed and said: "Actually, this is how it should be. Young Master Han has set his eyes on us, Miss Wu, and he said that he did not want to become a heaven shocking person, and thus had the thought of marrying us."


    "Is that so?" First Lady looked at Long Er and Wu''er suspiciously. Could it be that the two of them were lying? Xi Wu Er had met Young Master Han before? Xi Wan Rong suddenly thought of an absurd idea. Could it be that Young Master Han was talking about me? Perhaps ¡ª all this was a misunderstanding?


    Xi Wan Rong''s face became unsettled. First Lady did not notice that she only spoke with mother of joy for a while, and gave Xi Wu Er the appearance of a loving mother in front of mother of joy. When mother of joy left, his expression darkened. This was Xi Mansion''s face and it was her first time marrying a girl, if she were to mess with him, no matter if it was First Lady or Xi Hong Sheng, they would all give him a hard time.

 C102

    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong had a strange look on her face as she said, "Your daughter did meet a gongzi in the bamboo forest ¡­" She had also heard of it from the Young Master Xue, unless he was the only one left in the temple. Then she was sure that the person she was meeting was Young Master Han.


    "What''s the use of saying all this? Things have already become a foregone conclusion, so let''s just wait for the marriage. " First Lady was unhappy, as it was customary for him to do so. Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong did not get married yet it was Xi Wu Er''s turn, if word of this got out, people would think that their daughter would not be able to get married. Thinking about his two daughters'' marriage, he cursed Xi Hong Sheng and the old Madame for being incompetent. It had been so long since he had allowed his two daughters to be pampered by His Majesty.


    "mother, do you want us to inform Zhong Family ¡­" Xi Wan Rong thought of an ingenious plan. If he had Zhong Family to help him, hehehe!


    First Lady immediately shook his head: "No, I can''t change my mind like that, how can Zhong Family compare to me? If the people of Han Family knew that one reason is to resent the fact that we went to the Zhong Family, they would hate us to the core; and secondly, when the time comes, the reputation of our Miss would be tarnished as well. You and your sister are not married, and your reputation is not too good because of this little bitch Xi Jiu Er. Furthermore, Xi Wu Er''s marriage was messed up by us, who knows what kind of thoughts might arise in their minds, and we might even have another enemy, right? "


    "mother, but your daughter is unwilling ¡­" Xi Wan Rong spat: "Is she even fit to be that Xi Wu Er?"


    "Whether or not she''s worthy or not, once she''s married to the Young Master Han, the mother will naturally have a way to trap her so that she can be of use to the mother. Don''t forget, Rong Er, if your married daughter doesn''t have the support of her parents, what''s the use of being favored? " First Lady felt worse and worse about his life, and thinking about how he had to do it himself, he was annoyed.


    Xi Wu Er was nervous. Even if the old Madame went out, she was afraid that the First Lady would have some tricks up his sleeve. She anxiously waited for the Mrs. Han to find the matchmaker. There were very few people who knew about this news in the Xi Mansion, so no one knew about it.


    The people of Han Family had given him many betrothal gifts, which was already a matter of face for him. After Mrs. Han went back, he ordered some people to investigate Xi Wu Er, and found out that Xi Wu Er''s reputation was not good, and did not want his son to marry her. However, when Young Master Han heard this, he did not care at all. He only said: "She is so beautiful, there are plenty of people who want her beauty. When she marries me in the future, I will watch over her properly."


    Seeing that her son was determined to marry, the Mrs. Han found the matchmaker and went to Xi Mansion. Because she did not want to give too many betrothal gifts when she was born, she could go through with it. However, the only thing that puzzled everyone was why she had made it known to everyone. Only Xi Jiu Er knew that there were already some movements outside. The Mrs. Han wanted to use this opportunity to break the rumors.


    "Miss, Miss... The Han Family has asked the matchmaker to come and propose. " Long Er was overjoyed, "There are so many betrothal gifts, it''s just like when you were born in the Miss."


    The Young Master Han was concerned about her and urged the Mrs. Han to advance the marriage. Since there would be a good day in half a month, if he missed this time, it would be in three months. Mrs. Han also wanted to carry his grandson earlier, and couldn''t wait for his daughter-in-law to marry him today.


    Half a month was a little rushed for the Xi Family, so it was not very difficult. Xi Wan Rong was so angry that he heard the description of the betrothal gifts, and shouted: "Shut up, get out of here."


    "Yes." The servant was afraid of angering Xi Wan Rong, hence he did not exaggerate. He hastily retreated to see the figure of First Lady walking over, and immediately hid himself in the flowers.


    "All of you can leave now!" Not long after First Lady entered, she let the servants out. Just as she was about to leave when she heard the First Lady''s comforting voice: "What are you angry about? Do you want the mother to tell you a secret?"


    As soon as the servant heard that there was a secret he could listen to, he plucked up his courage and squatted under the window with his ear close to his ear. The originally angry and high-pitched voice turned soft, "mother, how can your daughter not be angry? The thought of that little bitch getting such a good marriage makes me angry. "


    "What are you angry about? Do you really think that marriage is good? " First Lady''s voice revealed a sense of schadenfreude: "mother has already bribed the servants in his courtyard, this Young Master Han is not humane ¡­"


    After the people outside had eaten it, Xi Wan Rong who was in the room was also surprised: "Is that true?"


    "Of course it''s true. If you have money, you can grind ghosts. What news do you want to know?" First Lady said complacently: "So, don''t be angry, you will suffer if you go back."


    "Hahaha, then this daughter will feel much better."


    This matter had stirred up quite a big commotion in the capital. The matter of Xi Wu Er being kidnapped and humiliated in front of all these people was suppressed by the Xi Mansion and the Zhong Family, so no one knew about this, but if some people were to investigate, they would definitely be able to find out something. Those people pretended to have seen a strange thing ¡­


    But who would have thought that after just one night, the matchmaker would come up with a lot of betrothal gifts, saying that the Young Master Han would marry Xi Wu Er as his legal wife. This time, the Xi Mansion was so shocked that even the people who were watching were shocked. The Han Family had died in battle, leaving behind the Young Master Han and his son. Although the Han Family was already lonely, he still had a reputation in the army.


    This time, Han Family was going to be married to a wife of eight carriers, I can''t be too vague about it. The marriage that First Lady was holding made Old Madame and Xi Hong Sheng very satisfied, Old Madame looked at the list of people to invite and smiled slightly: "I''m most relieved with the way you do things."


    First Lady laughed generously: "This is the duty of a daughter-in-law."


    Third Wife and Yan Er were also in the Old Madame''s room. The Third Wife had drunk Xi Jiu Er''s water and had grown a lot better, her stomach was a lot bigger than the women''s, the Old Madame''s doctors usually said that the Third Wife was carrying the little Young Master, and the little Young Master was very healthy too.


    The most important thing for the old Madame was to abandon his prejudiced grandson. She repeatedly warned the Third Wife to take good care of her body, and to pay attention to her children. Third Wife stood up while holding his stomach: "Old Madame, that day was definitely too lively. I won''t join in on the fun, in case I hurt the child in my womb."


    The old Madame thought about it and agreed, "Alright, you don''t have to come out. I''ll take care of everything."


    After exiting the Old Madame''s courtyard, Third Wife laughed: "This time, she can really hold it in, there must be a reason inside." What kind of character did the First Lady have, that the two of them had been fighting for more than 10 years, still did not know?


    Yan Er said indifferently: "No matter what, this is something that I don''t need to worry about."


    "You, huh. Your temper is really cold." Third Wife caressed his abdomen and laughed: "When I give birth to you, you will be free, what plans do you have for the future?"


    Yan Er still faintly smiled with slightly aged eyes: "Plans? One step at a time. "


    His wife! She actually married the Young Master Han to become his legal wife? This was the fortune that had fallen from the heavens. This was the result of the battles that they had in the past, she didn''t even dare to think about it, she had even thought that being a concubinage was her luck! Long Er was overjoyed: "Miss, you will be the young general Madame from now on.


    However, Xi Wu Er was frowning. He could not help but be worried, afraid that there would be a change halfway through. If the Zhong Family came to the First Lady and didn''t help her, she would die together with Xi Wan Feng even if they were to lose all decorum.


    Usually, half a month would pass by in a hurry. But to Xi Wu Er, this half a month was like a year spent fearfully. She had no choice but to remain respectful and respectful to First Lady, afraid that he would interfere in her plans.


    That night, Xi Wu Er didn''t sleep soundly. In his dreams, there would always be the Young Master Han pointing at her nose and scolding her that she wasn''t a pure woman, but a broken shoe that everyone despised. Afterwards, the wedding she had been waiting for was gone. The Young Master Han no longer wanted her, and he had abandoned her. As a result, she had become the focus of the capital''s ridicule.


    "Don''t... Don''t... I am not... "I''m not ¡­" Xi Wu Er suddenly realized that there was a black shadow sitting beside her bed and was shocked to the point that she almost cried out.


    "Miss Wu, it''s me." This was the Madame Feng''s cold and indifferent voice, and the voice was still the same as usual. However, if one listened carefully, they would discover that the voice contained a sense of panic.


    "What are you doing here? "Get out!" Xi Wu Er never had any good impression of this mother, nor did she have any hopes of success, but now that she suddenly came, she was afraid of messing up her marriage and pushing it away from Madame Feng like a snake or scorpion.


    The Madame Feng sighed: "Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I came here today to tell you one thing, the Young Master Han is not a humane place, this was something the servant in the house overheard, I spent a lot of money to get this news."


    "Nonsense, do you think I would believe you? It''s fine if you don''t help me plan for my future, but I never thought that you would actually want to disrupt my marriage. My marriage to Young Master Han is a marriage that I can''t ask for, even if he can''t help me, I will accept it. " When Xi Wu Er heard Madame Feng''s words, she immediately became extremely angry.


    The Madame Feng calmed down before saying indifferently, "I have already told you about this matter, whether you believe it or not is up to you. I hope that''s not the case. Miss Wu, I am very happy to be able to marry to Han Family. I hope that you can live a happy life in the future. "


    The night was hazy, and Madame Feng''s expression could not be clearly seen. One could only tell that the voice was similar to normal, and did not have much of an expression in it. Xi Wu Er coldly snorted. "Don''t worry, I will make myself happy."


    Madame Feng stood up with an understanding of the situation, borrowing the moonlight, she left. Xi Wu Er truly wanted to curse out loud when he saw the back of her figure, but he felt extremely upset in his heart! Madame Feng was a commoner woman, but Xi Hong Sheng had set his sights on her. Although she didn''t say it openly, the officials who fawned over her sent her to his bed, and after a few months, when they had Xi Wu Er, they completely lost interest.

 C103

    Madame Feng lived like a shadow in Xi Mansion, doing things obediently. As a person, First Lady would not be able to find fault with her, First Lady saw that she had a daughter, and that her good character did not make things difficult for her. It could be said that although the Madame Feng was suffering, it was very peaceful.


    Xi Wu Er did not take Madame Feng''s words seriously. Early the next morning, she continued to make boots for him. Every bride would make her future husband something she was most proficient in, such as embroidered robes, embroidered scented bags, and so on.


    "Hiss ¡­" "It hurts." Xi Wu Er accidentally pricked her finger, but after hearing Madame Feng''s words, she became a little unsettled. There were some things that she would rather believe than not. She recalled the kernels that Xi Jiu Er had given her. When she saw the Young Master Han, she immediately wet the kernels and a faint fragrance rushed over.


    Xi Jiu Er said, this was a medicine that could make men unable to stop, did Young Master Han eat the medicine that Xi Jiu Er gave him so that he could marry him? Xi Wu Er thought about this possibility absentmindedly as she continued to embroider.


    "Miss, what''s wrong, your boots are off ~!" Long Er''s screams woke Xi Wu Er up. Seeing that the boots in her hands were completely different from the previous one, she immediately started to remove the thread and re-embroider the boots in a fluster.


    "Miss, you look bad. Do you want to go take a rest?" Long Er asked softly. "In a few more days, Miss will be the bride. He should look better, otherwise, when Young Master Han sees this ¡­"


    Xi Wu Er raised his head and stared at Long Er fiercely, signalling for Long Er to shut up immediately. He placed the boots on the ground distractedly, and thought for a while, then decided to look for Xi Jiu Er ¡­ But what if First Lady finds out ¡­ Xi Wu Er thought about it and then decided to sit down again.


    "It''s fine, maybe Xi Wan Rong was jealous of himself so he made up such a rumor ¡­" Xi Wu Er comforted himself, and concentrated on making boots again.


    Xi Mansion was very busy, he bought a few more servant girls and entered the house: "Miss, First Lady has already bought ten servant girls. They need to wait for the marriage ceremony to end."


    "First Lady naturally has her intentions." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    In a blink of an eye, the wedding had arrived. Xi Wan Feng not coming back was expected, she was more than willing to do such a thing. Xi Wan Rong said that he was not feeling well and did not go out. What Xi Wu Er had married was a fact, and the knot that was in her heart was also a fact.


    Only Xi Jiu Er was present. Who didn''t know of her presence in the capital? However, very few people had seen her true appearance! A pretty maid came out, supporting a delicate and pretty girl. She was about 17 or 18 years old. Although she didn''t have a peerless appearance, her temperament was unparalleled.


    This was the first time Xi Mansion held a marriage ceremony. The guests invited by First Lady did not have very high statuses, but there were a lot of people coming, so it could be considered as giving them face. Xi Wu Er''s mother Madame Feng heard the gongs and drums outside and roared. A helpless expression appeared on her face.


    It just so happened that Third Wife and Yanran passed by and asked, "Madame Feng, today is Miss Wu''s wedding day, why is your birth mother here?"


    Madame Feng laughed bitterly: "People like me are unable to enter the hall." Entering the hall was the main hall. This was the concubinage, someone who would never have the right to stand upright and upright!


    Third Wife suddenly thought of himself, if his own children were to get married, would he also hear the festive firecrackers outside, the sounds of the liveliness, and the bridal sedans silently weeping in the corner? No, she would not do that. She would stand openly in the lobby and receive the children''s kowtows.


    The night was as cold as water.


    After the commotion, Xi Mansion seemed to have turned into a tired old man, sleeping extremely peacefully. Xi Jiu Er heard Liu Xiang gloating as she asked, "Miss, what do you think will happen to Miss''s wedding night?"


    "Why would a girl like you be interested in this?" Liu Shui took the chance to ask as he was eating the pastries, and buried his head back into his food.


    "Hmph, it must be very lively. Interesting. Young Master Han lifted his head, and suddenly exclaimed in shock, "Aiya, my beautiful lady, how did you become like this? Men, hurry up and drag this thief who impersonates a bride out of here! '' Thus, the two of them planned to send Miss Wu down. But who was Miss Wu? She had gone through great difficulty to become a Mrs. Han, how could she give up such a good opportunity? "So roll around on the ground and refuse to leave no matter what ¡­"


    Liu Xiang said as she vividly made movements, teasing Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui as they laughed out loud.


    But the reality was completely different from what Liu Xiang had said. After marrying the beautiful woman and talking for such a long time, the Young Master Han ran off to meet the new wife as soon as the banquet was over. The maidservants at the entrance saw that his face was filled with anxiety, and they pursed their lips into smiles as they left.


    Mrs. Han was still taking care of the aftermath when he saw that his son was gone. He only found out that his son had gone to the bridal room after asking. Even the Han Qingru''s Madame was embarrassed. "This child ¡­"


    The old servant laughed: "Congratulations Madame! Very soon, our young Madame is pregnant, I will give birth to a fat little Young Master for you next year."


    "Hehehe ¡­" These words had reached the heart of the Mrs. Han, and he chuckled: "There are some things that I can''t ask for, as long as my son likes it, then it''s fine, the child will slowly come back."


    "Yes, yes, yes."


    Young Master Han excitedly walked into the bridal chamber. The entire room was filled with the color of joyous red as if he was in a joyful mood! The young girl in wedding dress was sitting quietly on the bed with her head covered. From her intertwined hands, it could be seen how nervous the bride was.


    "The first time I saw you, I wanted you to marry me. At that time, I was thinking how great it would be if such a beautiful woman agreed to marry me! "I never thought that my dream would come true. This is great!" Young Master Han was so excited that he spoke incoherently, even his tongue was tied.


    Beneath the wedding, Xi Wu Er''s face froze. They had never seen each other before!


    "I will treat you well. I will not leave you for the rest of my life. Even if you want the stars in the sky, I will pick them for you." Even if the Young Master Han were to make a solemn promise, Xi Wu Er would still be able to hear how serious he was and he would definitely keep his promise. But, when Xi Wu Er heard these words, she was not happy, but instead fell into the ice cellar. He vaguely felt that the ''her'' that Young Master Han spoke of was not him.


    "Wan Rong..." I''ll call you Wan Rong from now on, okay? " Young Master Han shouted emotionally, and then lifted his red head, the excitement on his face instantly freezing it up. In the next moment, it turned into questioning and shouting, "Who are you? You are not Wan Rong! "


    When Xi Wu Er heard Young Master Han call out ''Wan Rong'', he felt like his world had collapsed! When the red veil was lifted, the beauty''s face immediately contorted. She was not used to the sudden change in Young Master Han, so she looked at the Young Master Han in a daze.


    "Speak, who are you? Where''s Wan Rong? " Young Master Han bellowed.


    Xi Wu Er did not understand how things had turned out like this. He did not know what had happened nor did he know what Young Master Han and Xi Wan Rong had in common. Her mind was blank, but her instincts told her that she had nowhere else to go.


    "Husband, what are you talking about? I''m Dancing, the dance that I once had with you!" Xi Wu Er took a deep breath, she became more spirited and revealed a smile that she thought was very nice.


    "What bullsh * t! I only know that you''re not her. Speak, where is she and who are you!?" "If you don''t say it, I''ll beat you to death today." Xi Wu Er was not even the slightest bit pregnant, because the other party''s gaze was too terrifying, causing her to feel suffocated and dizzy.


    Everything was not what he had expected. It was far beyond the scope of his imagination. She thought that the Young Master Han truly liked her by marrying her as his legal wife; by marrying her back so impatiently, he truly liked her as well; by speaking gently to her, he was also talking to her because he liked her. So it was all wrong!


    "I don''t know what you''re talking about, Darling." Xi Wu Er forced a smile: "Who is she?"


    Why would the Young Master Han even talk to her in such a gentle tone? The beauty he had always liked, the one he had always wanted to marry, had actually turned into someone else when he had lifted the veil over her head. No matter who it was, they would fall in love with her! Furthermore, Young Master Han, whose heart was already warped, was on the verge of vomiting blood!


    Slap ¡ª ¡ª "Xi Wu Er was suddenly slapped on the bed. She covered her face and bit her lips, wanting to cry, but didn''t cry. She only used her delicate and touching eyes to look at Young Master Han and muttered:" Husband, what are you doing? What did I do wrong to make you hit me? If you say that I am not her, then tell me, my husband, who is she?! If you can exchange with me, we can do it. "


    Xi Wu Er was not stupid, exchange? What a joke! Now, everyone in the capital knew that the Young Master Han had married a bastard of the Xi Mansion. Unless the people of the Han Family did not care about face in exchange, even the people of the Han Family did not care about face in the slightest! She was someone who walked out of Xi Mansion, and she did not know what Xi Mansion would do.


    The Young Master Han was furious. Seeing that Xi Wu Er did not know anything and hearing her say "exchange", he became a lot more relaxed and said impatiently, "I don''t know who she is, I only know that she is extremely beautiful. I heard that she is the Miss''s Miss!" After saying that, she stared at Xi Wu Er with disgust, as if to say, ''How can you be like this?''


    Xi Wu Er started to hate Yue Yang when he saw Yue Yang look at him disgustingly as if he had just eaten a housefly. Although she wasn''t a peerless beauty, she was still a beauty. Was there a need to be like this?


    "Really?" Then the one that my husband is talking about is most likely my sister, Xi Wan Rong. " Xi Wu Er said in a still warm voice, "But Darling, I was with Darling that night."


    Xi Wu Er''s meaning was, you and I have already known each other for a long time, you cannot ignore me!

 C104

    wishful thinking


    Young Master Han was startled. Me and her? Not with Xi Wan Rong? Young Master Han who suddenly received this news looked at Xi Wu Er with a strange gaze, and asked uncertainly: "Are you speaking the truth?"


    Xi Wu Er lowered his eyes and said softly, "What I said was all true." Without leaving a trace, she took out the handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the sweat off her forehead. She kept the handkerchief that Xi Jiu Er had given her with her Mind''s Eye. The last time she had wet half her handkerchief, the other half had not been wet because she wanted to say goodbye.


    At this time, she had to think of all the ways to keep the Young Master Han. If the Young Master Han left on their wedding night, how would she live in the Han estate? The handkerchief was wet with sweat and gradually released a sweet and fragrant scent.


    Young Master Han hesitated, one woman was the woman he had been looking for for a long time, and the other woman was the one who could help him show off his manhood for generations to come! Xi Wu Er''s role as a concubine was to be the tool to produce children, and the person he truly liked was Xi Wu Er.


    Xi Wu Er''s face gradually flushed red, her white and tender skin revealed a rosy color, seeing Young Master Han''s itchy heart!


    "Husband ¡­" Let me give you a baby. " Xi Wu Er sighed, her small face was so embarrassed that it looked like water was about to drip from it. Young Master Han completely lost his reason and rushed forward. Everything became logical.


    When the servants outside heard the commotion, they heaved a sigh of relief and ran to report to Mrs. Han. Only then did Mrs. Han feel relieved.


    Deep in the night, the Young Master Han was already in a deep slumber, Xi Wu Er who was sleeping beside him barely managed to hold himself up as he instructed the servant outside: "Long Er, come in."


    Xi Wu Er covered his body and carried the dignity of a mistress: "All of you can leave, Long Er can just wait on you."


    "Yes." The group of people bowed and left.


    Long Er quickly stepped forward to help Xi Wu Er up, and when she saw the naked body of the spirit beast, her face immediately turned as red as an apple! Xi Wu Er yelled in a low voice, "Where are you looking with your dog eyes?"


    Long Er immediately retracted her gaze, and helped Xi Wu Er take a bath. Xi Wu Er''s tender and tender skin was bruised greatly, and there were bite marks and scratch marks ¡­ Looking at it, Long Er was shy and frightened. It hurt so much that Xi Wu Er gasped, and scolded: "If you want to kill me, won''t you?"


    "No, no, Servant didn''t do it on purpose." Long Er immediately replied.


    "Hurry up." Xi Wu Er scolded in annoyance.


    Xi Wu Er was comfortably bathing in the hot water, but his mind was far away ¡­ This was her first time, it was said that love between a man and a woman was the most comfortable thing in the world, but she didn''t feel it. She only felt disgust, nausea, disgust, and endless pain.


    Young Master Han was like a wolf as he tore and bit at her body ¡­ He himself was like a piece of fat, allowing the Young Master Han to do whatever he wanted. This feeling was extremely bad. He hoped that he could become pregnant as soon as possible and have a son. This way, her status would be guaranteed.


    Xi Wan Rong... Xi Wan Rong... Who would have thought that the woman Young Master Han had set his eyes on was Xi Wan Rong? Was it Xi Jiu Er''s handiwork or an accident? As he thought about it, he couldn''t figure out what was going on. After busying herself for the whole day, not only didhe have to deal with the Young Master Han, she even did a piece of physical work.


    Now that he was sleepy, he could not help but fall asleep.


    In the morning of the second day, Young Master Han opened his eyes and saw the word "double happy" above his head. Before he could react, he turned his head and saw the woman sleeping soundly beside him.


    The beautiful scar on Xi Wu Er''s neck made the Young Master Han feel a sense of accomplishment. This time, he was completely flabbergasted and panicked.


    Xi Wu Er woke up the moment he climbed onto his body. Just as he was about to refuse, he found that Young Master Han was fumbling around on his body for a long time, and suddenly became angry. Could it be that Madame Feng saying that Young Master Han''s'' no ''is true?


    "What''s going on? Why is there no reaction at all? Impossible, I could have done it last night, but why is it so lifeless now? " Young Master Han said, flustered.


    Xi Wu Er ''slowly woke up'' and said: "Husband, you are probably tired from last night, but didn''t you know that last night you put me through such a hard time?


    Young Master Han asked doubtfully: "Really?" He had also heard that men could not be used in this area, or else their roots would be damaged. Besides, he hadn''t used it in a long time, so he couldn''t be too hasty with his'' use ''now. Thinking of this, his heart felt comfortable.


    After the two of them tidied up properly, they went to pay respects to the Mrs. Han. The Young Master Han was a little unwilling. The woman he married was not the person he wanted, so how could he have the mood to greet her? But when he thought about Xi Wan Rong''s beautiful little face appearing in his mind, he immediately became spirited once again!


    He had told the mother that the mother would definitely be able to bring Xi Wan Rong over. He was her only son. If you don''t give yourself consideration, can''t you give others consideration?


    Mrs. Han smiled as he looked at the approaching person, his eyes squinted into slits. Xi Wu Er said bashfully, there were many strawberries on her neck, making her laugh. Then he looked at his son. Why was he so unhappy?


    "Greetings to mother, daughter-in-law." Xi Wu Er knelt in front of Mrs. Han and took the tea from the serving tray of the servant. As long as Mrs. Han drinks her tea, she will be the daughter-in-law that Mrs. Han admits to.


    "Alright, alright, alright ¡­" Mrs. Han happily received the tea and took a sip. The old mother behind him handed over a red packet, and the Mrs. Han handed it over to Xi Wu Er: "Good child, hurry up and open up our Han Family!"


    "Yes." Xi Wu Er shyly lowered her head and softly replied.


    Young Master Han stood at the side like a pillar, he pouted and said: "mother, forget about kneeling down as your son."


    Mrs. Han said helplessly: "You, as a married man, how can you not know etiquette? It won''t be long before you become the child''s father, at that time you won''t be able to do this."


    "Ha ha!" Young Master Han laughed happily, people his age would have already been married for a few years already. Firstly, it was because of his pride that he wanted a child, and secondly, it was because he wanted a child to inherit his legacy. This was a bloodline inheritance!


    "All of you can leave now." Young Master Han thought about his purpose for coming here, and immediately ordered all the servants in Mrs. Han''s room to withdraw, waiting for the three people in the room to speak.


    "mother, this woman is not the person I want to marry." Young Master Han said.


    Mrs. Han was startled, he did not understand what was going on. After hearing what Young Master Han had to say, he finally understood, it turns out that his son liked Xi Wan Rong? Xi Wu Er who was at the side understood what had happened and his heart sank. So it was love at first sight.


    "Hehe, seeing that you have bruises, I guess your body isn''t feeling well. Go back and rest for a bit." The Mrs. Han''s attitude towards Xi Wu Er no longer had the ardor from before, Xi Wu Er knew that they were going to let go of both mother and son to talk.


    "Yes." Xi Wu Er said obediently.


    As soon as Xi Wu Er left the Young Master Han, he started to shout loudly, "mother, my son wants Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Rong!"


    The Young Master Han was much more rational than his own son and he kindly advised, "Longevity, now that you have married my concubinage and want my direct daughter, do you think my Xi Mansion agrees? He is the number one beauty, and the people who have been looking for him are flocking over. mother is not letting me tell you, outside, there are rumors that Xi Wan Rong is not a good woman! "


    "mother, say more bad things about her." The Young Master Han sullenly said: "Anyway, my son likes her."


    "It''s one thing to like it, and it''s another to marry it. How can this be child''s play? I see that Xi Wu Er has nothing bad about it, you know how to be obedient, and know that your status is high now that you have entered our Han Family, in the future, you will definitely do things obediently and raise your children. " Mrs. Han''s face sank: "Eternal Victory, there are some things that shouldn''t be messed around with. Right now, it''s more important that we have children."


    "mother ¡­" Young Master Han was not willing to give up.


    Mrs. Han frowned: "Alright, let''s do it this way. It''s just a woman, isn''t it more of a problem than having a son? Our Han Family was once a glorious family, but when mother didn''t want our Han Family to be destroyed, he was sent to them! "


    Young Master Han kept quiet. Indeed, was a woman more important than having children? It was rare for him to have feelings for a woman, and right now, the most important thing for him to do was to bear a son. After having a son, he would teach him martial arts and go to the battlefield to fulfill his dream.


    Mrs. Han saw that she had let her son go, and spoke sincerely: "My son, our Han Family is waiting for your son to shine, you better not disappoint him!"


    "Don''t worry mother, your son will not disappoint you." Young Master Han understood and put it down.


    "Yes, yes." Mrs. Han heaved a sigh of relief. If her son persisted on doing this, she would definitely have a headache. Fortunately, his son was very understanding and didn''t try to pester him.


    Xi Wu Er stood in front of Long Er and looked at him, instructing him. Long Er opened his eyes wide: "Madame, this ¡­"


    "What do you mean? If I tell you to do it, you can do it. As long as it''s done, I won''t treat you unfairly!" Right now, the only person she could use was Long Er, if she could, she would personally take care of it.


    "Yes." Long Er focused and nodded.


    During the day, all of the brothels had already closed. Long Er looked left and right, only to discover that there was no one around, after knocking on the doors of the backyard, did she hear a woman''s voice: "What are you doing?" He didn''t sound good at all.


    Long Er said in a low voice: "We want to buy some ''good things''."


    It was common for brothels to use this sort of thing. Men just wanted to have a different feeling when they were in brothels, to experience a feeling they had never experienced before. Some good ''treasures'' could only be bought at a high price. The brothels sometimes did this sort of business during the day, so the price was not cheap.

 C105

    Long Er repeatedly emphasized on obtaining ''powerful'' treasures, and after getting them, Long Er left in a hurry. This was the first time she was leaving the Han Residence. She didn''t know what rules the Han Residence had, but she left without any questions anyway, so no one asked her when she returned. She guessed that it was probably because of the new marriage that she was like this, and that the rules would come after a while.


    "How is it? Have you bought it back yet? " Xi Wu Er anxiously wandered around the room, and after waiting for half a day, he finally arrived. He scolded: "You little bastard, why have you been here for so long?"


    Long Er said in a low voice: "Servant went around a few rounds and bought some pastries for Madame before coming back." He didn''t want the Han estate to ask her about it, did she?


    "Hmph, a little brain." Long Er carefully hid those things and asked: "Is there any taboo with this medicine?"


    Long Er shook her head: "There''s no taboo, I just said that when the time comes, I''ll throw it all into the incense."


    When Xi Wu Er heard that it was the Young Master Han greeting the servants, he immediately tidied up his clothes and went out to welcome them. Young Master Han rested for a few hours. When he felt that he had fully recovered, he would go and give birth to his son.


    With a wave of his hand, Long Er left the room. Young Master Han immediately said: "Close the door."


    Xi Wu Er''s face was peach colored, and with a low and charming voice, she softly said, "Husband."


    "Yes." The Young Master Han made a sound of acknowledgement and wrapped his arm around Xi Wu Er''s waist, but was pushed back into the air by Xi Wu Er, and asked unhappily: "What are you running for?"


    Xi Wu Er quickly said: "Husband, please wait a moment, this daytime dance is a bit shy, how about Husband turning around and waiting for Husband on the bed after I finish packing up, how about that?" As she spoke, her face gradually turned red.


    "Heh heh ¡ª good, I''ll take you." Young Master Han looked at Xi Wu Er''s thin-skinned face and was happy in her heart.


    Taking the chance that Young Master Han was turning around, Xi Wu Er immediately threw the pills Long Er bought into the censer. A fragrance immediately filled the room, Young Master Han was not interested in incense, so he did not mind, he only knew that women loved to play with incense.


    After Xi Wu Er was ready, he shyly called out, "Alright ~"


    Young Master Han laughed and turned to pounce at him, but no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail, as if he had returned to his previous state.


    Xi Wu Er was shocked, could it be that the medicine was ineffective?


    "This is so infuriating." The Young Master Han was flustered and exasperated, but Xi Wu Er''s heart had already dropped to the bottom of the valley. Could it be that only Xi Jiu Er''s medicine would be effective? Putting aside his doubts, Xi Wu Er immediately comforted Young Master Han: "Husband, you must be tired. You''ll definitely recover in a few days."


    Young Master Han was a little doubtful. He frowned and said indifferently: "Hmm, let''s see if it has any effect in a few days. If it has no effect, then we can only say that it is just a spur of the moment to you."


    Three days time to return was over. Mrs. Han had prepared many things for Xi Wu Er to bring back, to let them return early. Xi Wu Er was thinking about Xi Jiu Er''s medicine and the Young Master Han was thinking that they would finally be able to see his beloved marry again. Therefore, the two of them weren''t listening to what the Mrs. Han was saying.


    Not to mention that it was for the sake of Xi Wu Er, even if it was the Young Master Han s, they should not have hastily taken up the matter. Therefore, he had prepared lunch early on to return home.


    Xi Wu Er didn''t really look like a grand person when he returned to the door, he just wanted to have a meal with everyone. This time, Xi Wu Er was wearing the best clothes he had, he felt like a nouveau riche, but in reality, Xi Wu Er was a nouveau riche.


    Old Madame, Xi Hong Sheng, First Lady, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Jiu Er! When Young Master Han saw that Xi Wan Rong could not even walk on his own, and his eyes following Xi Wan Rong''s figure, Xi Wu Er felt extremely disgusted in his heart.


    "Mhmm." Xi Hong Sheng snorted, seeing that Young Master Han had regained his senses, he said: "I don''t know what you like to eat, but let the kitchen prepare some, how about you try it?"


    Young Master Han was slightly embarrassed as he laughed: "The taste is very good!"


    "Mm, as long as you like it. "My family dance has been very well-behaved since young. Of course, you also have a bit of a temper. If you guys are able to tolerate her at the start of your marriage, then try your best to accommodate her as much as possible." Xi Hong Sheng said meaningfully: "Since you''re already married, you should treat your own wife well. Don''t look at your bowl and think about what''s in it."


    Young Master Han was a little embarrassed and nodded: "Yes, son-in-law knows." Although he promised, he did not think that way. His entire mind was filled with Xi Wan Rong''s voice, she was really too beautiful! It was the most beautiful girl he had ever met. He had only thought that they were beautiful when they met by chance, but now that he looked at them more closely, there was another flavor to them.


    Xi Wan Rong felt that the Young Master Han''s gaze was too open and direct, causing her to feel extremely disgusted. Thus, after quickly finishing the meal, she went back to the hut to rest, so as to not upset her appetite.


    Xi Wan Rong was sleeping soundly, but she was suddenly awoken by the thought of you. She had been sound asleep all this while, but when she opened her eyes, she was surprised to see that Young Master Han had entered the room wearing servant''s clothes.


    "You, what are you doing?" Xi Wan Rong shrunk his body and suddenly hid in a corner of the bed. He stared at Young Master Han with wide eyes: "If you dare to do anything bad, I''ll immediately scream."


    Young Master Han didn''t hear what Xi Wan Rong was saying at all, she only looked at the beauty who was inches away from her with infatuation and muttered: "Do you know that I had already fallen for you from the very first time I saw you? Do you know how much I like you, and how much I love you?"


    "Don''t speak nonsense, you are my brother-in-law." Xi Wan Rong felt a wave of disgust in his heart when he saw him. A man that couldn''t love anything said in front of her, it was really disgusting.


    "I thought that woman was you, but it turns out to be you!" The Young Master Han said in grief: "Do you know how unbearable that is? "How sad is it?"


    "What does this have to do with me? If you keep talking about it, then I''ll deal with it." Xi Wan Rong''s entire face was twisted, she was already prepared to scream. As long as this stinky man dared to come close to her, she would immediately open her throat and shout loudly.


    Young Master Han hurriedly replied: How could it be unrelated to you? I like you, I love you, don''t you love me, don''t you like me? "


    Madman, he was a madman!


    "What does liking me have to do with me? I don''t like you, and I don''t love you! Someone, come here! "Xi Wan Rong did not care much about it, and immediately shouted. With a bang, the door was kicked open, followed by Xi Wan Rong''s voice: "A thief has entered big sister''s house, Liu Shui, what are you still standing there for, hurry up and beat me up!"


    "Yes." Liu Shui rolled up his sleeves and started to attack Young Master Han. Young Master Han was a young general so he naturally had some skills. The two of them started fighting without a word. Liu Shui''s martial arts was obviously higher than Young Master Han''s, and after a few rounds, he already had the upper hand.


    At this time, Xi Mao actually came! Originally, Xi Mao would not come here, it was because Xi Jiu Er had someone wait at the door. Once Xi Mao came back, he would immediately tell him that this brother-in-law of his, Young Master Han, had returned.


    As a result, he was led all the way to Xi Wan Rong''s room, he did not think too much about it at his age, and after running over to take a look, he somewhat understood what was going on. He had been standing at the side for a long time, enjoying the show.


    "Good, well fought. That was too good." Xi Mao laughed.


    Xi Wu Er did not manage to find Xi Jiu Er, but after hearing that the Young Master Han had ''accidentally'' entered Xi Wan Rong''s room, he immediately rushed over. When he met Xi Jiu Er halfway, he immediately felt that Hai Hua Si''s personal matters were the most important.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er." Xi Wu Er smiled and affectionately held Xi Jiu Er''s hand with a face full of deep sisterhood.


    Xi Jiu Er took her hand out and asked indifferently: "Is there something the matter, big sister Wu''er?"


    "Hehe, I just want to know if Little Sister Jiu Er has any more of that medicine ¡­" Before Xi Wu Er could finish her sentence, she was impatiently interrupted by Xi Jiu Er, "There''s nothing more. I took great pains to get that medicine, so I gave you all of it. "


    Xi Wu Er immediately changed his expression when he heard that: "None more? Where did Little Sister Jiu Er come from, and is there any way to get more? "


    "Sister Wu has already become a Mrs. Han, do you still need to use those pills?" Xi Jiu Er asked curiously.


    Xi Wu Er had difficulty speaking. In the end, he couldn''t say that he came to find her because Young Master Han wasn''t good enough. So he mumbled, "Don''t worry about it. Just get me some!" Unconsciously, her tone had changed.


    Xi Jiu Er sneered: "Is Sister Wu ordering me? "Then I''ll take my leave."


    Xi Wu Er''s eyes flashed with hatred, he immediately went over to stop Xi Jiu Er and smiled apologetically: "How could I dare order Little Sister Jiu Er to do that, Little Sister, please don''t be angry, forgive Big Sister this time, I was just asking a question."


    "Humph!" "Rest assured, once I have obtained this item, I will let the servant girl bring you to the mansion." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Xi Wu Er quickly said: "There''s no need for Sister Jiu Er to come here, just tell me where you got it from." She didn''t want to trouble Xi Jiu Er anymore and think of a way to solve this problem once and for all.


    "It was concocted by my heart-nourishing hall''s doctors."


    heart-nourishing hall? Isn''t it Xi Jiu Er''s shop? Wasn''t asking him for nothing? The anger on Xi Wu Er''s chest could not be relieved, and she forced a smile, "Alright, when the time comes, little sister Jiu Er will definitely give that thing to big sister, it''s something big sister needs to save her life."


    Xi Jiu Er gave a bland laugh, "Don''t worry, as long as you have me sending him to big sister''s residence again, I won''t delay him for even a moment."


    With Xi Jiu Er''s promise, Xi Wu Er became more at ease, but in her heart, she was already planning on how to get to the heart-nourishing hall and find the house. Her future life in the Han estate was entirely dependent on her.


    Originally, after eating dinner, he would have a night''s rest, but after seeing that Young Master Han did something like that, Xi Hong Sheng already scared the hell out of him. In the end, the two could only return. Young Master Han was upset, the morehe looked at Xi Wu Er, the more she disliked him. How did he marry her and not Xi Wan Rong?

 C106

    One day, First Lady said that Xi Wan Rong did not have any pretty Headwear, so she went to the best storefront in the capital and made a set for herself. The two of them talked about this while walking, and just happened to see Xi Jiu Er around.


    Originally, Xi Jiu Er wanted to pretend that she didn''t see the two of them, especially the words'' little sister Jiu Er ''that sounded so sweet and coquettish, she couldn''t help but feel goosebumps all over Xi Jiu Er. However, it also made her feel a little expectant.


    "Is there something wrong with the Elder Sister Rong?" Xi Jiu Er also forced a fake smile.


    "It''s like this. mother wants to make me a set of Headwear just so that you can come with me. At that time, if there''s anything you want me to give you, I''ll choose one." Xi Wan Rong raised his eyebrows as if he had done great a favor. Didn''t she know that Xi Jiu Er was currently the richest person in Xi Mansion?


    "Alright, I also don''t have any pretty jewelry. Since Elder Sister Rong has invited me, I will borrow the Elder Sister Rong''s light to take a look." Xi Jiu Er said excitedly, looking at First Lady''s frowning expression, she did not know of this matter, was it Xi Wan Rong''s idea?


    "In that case, let''s leave early tomorrow morning." Xi Wan Rong said while laughing, and left with the confused First Lady. When they were far away, First Lady asked: "What do you mean by that? "Why is that slut so lacking in silver?"


    "mother, you don''t have to worry about that, don''t you want to play with the Madame tomorrow? As long as you lend the Phoebe to your daughter, your daughter will have her reputation destroyed. " Xi Wan Rong suddenly thought of an excellent method. This method could definitely cause Xi Jiu Er''s reputation to go down the drain.


    First Lady sighed, she hoped that her precious daughter would be able to outthink Xi Jiu Er, and gain some intelligence from her mistakes. As the saying goes, it''s better to have something to eat, or else Xi Wan Rong would have to learn these things from her, and she would have to train them.


    At dawn the next day, the First Lady was ready. Sometimes, Madame would have to attend these sorts of places, and it was also to find out more news for their husbands.


    When the First Lady left, Xi Jiu Er had already finished cleaning up, but the one waiting for her was the Phoebe, the Phoebe laughed and said: "This old servant pays respects to the Miss, greets Miss Jiu Er."


    Yo, where is this? Xi Jiu Er smiled and nodded: "How have Phoebe been lately?"


    The Phoebe said: "Thank you for Miss''s concern, I am fine." He paused for a moment before continuing, "Miss Rong is not feeling well today, let this old servant follow Jiu Er."


    Most of the reason why First Lady was able to swim in the water was because he had two helpers, Wang Ma. If he could get rid of Phoebe today, it would cause the First Lady to lose an arm. Phoebe usually did some shady business for First Lady, and rarely saw her in the palace. Now that Xi Jiu Er had caught her, she was extremely happy.


    "Alright, then I''ll be troubling Phoebe." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly.


    They were all going to the famous Headwear s'' shop in the capital, which was filled with nobles and officials. One of the shops liked by the Thousand Gold Miss s, it had a hundred years of history and its reputation was very good. Xi Jiu Er thought that Xi Wan Rong seemed to have used quite a bit of strength this time. Hmm, why not make a good profit on him?


    Xi Jiu Er followed the Phoebe into the house. The shop was very special, Xi Jiu Er had never been too enthusiastic about women, there were her jewelry left behind by the mother, there were also some from the First Lady, and there were even some from Old Madame who gave her a lot. The Third Wife also gave her a lot of money, but she felt that she had given it to her, and there was no need to waste any silver to buy more, so she had only heard of this shop before.


    The decorations in the shop were unique, the Headwear s inside dazzled and dazzled. Liu Xiang had seen a lot of good things, and the novelty only lasted for a moment before it faded. Xi Jiu Er had money, but she had no less than a thousand taels of silver in her pockets. At the beginning of the new year, Liu Xiang was afraid that the silver would fall, that it would be stolen, etc.


    Phoebe had long heard that Xi Jiu Er had plenty of money, when she saw that Xi Jiu Er was not attracted to any of the items, she could not help but exclaim in surprise, and seeing that Xi Jiu Er''s expression did not change, he immediately became surprised.


    A pretty girl walked over and asked: "What kind of jewelry does this Miss want to choose?"


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Let me see what''s the newest pattern here."


    The little girl giggled: "Wait a moment Miss, Yin Huan will bring out the latest version for you to see!" After saying that, she bent down and left, and before long, the servant girl brought over an extremely brilliant set of Headwear. Xi Jiu Er was somewhat pleased, but the little girl called Yin Huan laughed and said: "Miss, this is the most popular set this year, if you''re not satisfied, Yin Huan will go and get another set for Miss."


    Xi Jiu Er said a little happily: "No need, you can just put it on hold for now. I think it''s very pretty, I''ll take a look later."


    "Alright." Yin Huan smiled and bowed as she left.


    Xi Jiu Er took it over and looked, she truly liked this set. It was exquisite, the design was unique and beautiful, with jadeite and pearl inlaid together, it truly had a bit of a heaven defying quality to it. Liu Xiang was also overjoyed: "Miss Jiu Er, this is really beautiful!"


    "That''s right!" Xi Jiu Er laughed, she had gained a lot today, but she did not know where Xi Wan Rong''s trap was located.


    At this time, a young girl walked in from outside. She wore a fiery red dress that was beautiful to the point of being unrestrained. She was around thirteen or fourteen years old and had a sharp and arrogant air to her. Upon entering, he asked: "Innkeeper, the set of Headwear that this Miss took a fancy to a few days ago, I gave it to this Miss today, and this Miss has brought all the silver."


    Her voice was loud, and when Xi Jiu Er heard the shopkeeper''s voice, he laughed: "Hehe, Miss Zheng came at the unlucky time, and this Headwear is being watched."


    "What?" You are actually showing it to someone else? Who allowed you to show it to others? " The Miss Zheng immediately spoke out in displeasure, blaming herself for not keeping her word. The shopkeeper felt wronged: "Miss Zheng, when you left, you didn''t tell me you wanted it, so ¡­"


    "But I didn''t say no!" The Miss Zheng was displeased: "No matter, go and bring the things over. I will buy it with silver."


    "This ¡­" The manager was slightly troubled.


    "Hurry up!" Miss Zheng shouted!


    Xi Jiu Er thought to herself, this Miss Zheng is really too mighty, too imposing, as she thought back to the Miss Zheng in her head ¡­ It was as if the Princess Rongwang''s floral feast had never heard of this Miss Zheng''s voice and did not see the Prince Xian''s poetry meet either. This shop had a hundred years of history. Miss Zheng did not even put this shopkeeper in her eyes.


    Zheng Family? Which Zheng Family? Suddenly, a thought flashed through Xi Jiu Er''s mind. Wasn''t Mubai''s mother the Zheng Family? I heard that the Mubai has a sister, but she is this one?


    As Xi Jiu Er was thinking, sshe saw the door open. Yin Huan''s girl''s face flashed with panic: "This Miss, sorry ¡­ The Headwear shopkeeper had pointed out a few small problems, and after fixing them and changing the day, he will present them to the Miss! "


    Xi Jiu Er finally understood that the Headwear this Miss Zheng had set her eyes on was actually her, since she wanted to give it to him, then so be it! Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Alright, you can keep it."


    This pair of Headwear earrings, this pair of step shake earrings, this pair of comb, bracelet, crown, they were all placed into a total of five boxes. When the maids called Yin Huan opened the boxes one by one, they realized that one of the step shake was missing, and immediately looked at Xi Jiu Er''s head.


    "What''s wrong?" Xi Jiu Er was suspicious.


    Yin Huan said softly, "One less step shake... But did the Miss put it on? "


    Xi Jiu Er was startled: "Did you see me wearing it?"


    Yin Huan''s face did not even need to be white anymore. Other than a hairpin on her head, there was nothing else besides a valuable step shake. She then looked at Phoebe and Liu Xiang, "Are you the servants of Miss ¡­"


    Phoebe''s expression changed slightly. Liu Xiang had an expression of humiliation: "What do you mean by that? You mean we stole something from you? "


    Yin Huan immediately became flustered: "Please calm your anger Miss, that is not what Yin Huan meant. Yin Huan saw that something was missing and was a little frightened, so she spoke up without hiding anything, and begged Miss to forgive him."


    Liu Xiang was displeased: "It''s gone? We naturally have money to buy the things we came to see, so why would we steal your things? You made us sound like thieves, and I wanted to say that you stole it yourself to pin it on us. "


    Yin Huan''s entire face was white, she patted her Master''s head, whose hands and feet were a little dirty, just because she stole the thing on him, it wasn''t as if such a thing had never happened before.


    Yin Huan bit her lips and said: "Yin Huan doesn''t dare, it''s just that the servants of our shop all wear robes, as long as they are in a storehouse, they will search for anything ¡­ Yin Huan definitely would not dare to do so! "


    "You, are you still saying that we stole it?" Phoebe, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke out in indignation, "You all really have no basis for this! Miss Jiu Er, let''s go. This old servant will never bring you in here again in this kind of slanderous place. "


    Therefore, as he held Xi Jiu Er''s arm and was about to leave, Xi Jiu Er was a little surprised at her actions.


    With a ''clang'' sound, a step shake fell out of Xi Jiu Er''s sleeve, and the place became quiet. Yin Huan looked at the step shake in disdain. Hmph, Min Min Min was the one that she took, and even lied that she didn''t take it.


    Phoebe immediately exclaimed: "Isn''t, isn''t this the step shake that was just thrown away? Why is Miss in your sleeve? This... "This ¡­" Because of Phoebe''s roar, everyone turned to look at him. Once they saw him, they knew what was happening, and all of them revealed looks of disdain towards Xi Jiu Er.

 C107

    Xi Jiu Er was not dressed very well today, and there were very few accessories. Although bringing two servant girls along did not mean anything, looking at the set of Headwear on her table, it was at least a thousand gold, it was impossible to buy them without money. She probably liked it too much, so she decided to steal it because she couldn''t afford it.


    This was truly shameful. Since he couldn''t afford it, he didn''t want to come. He was truly shameless.


    The moment Xi Jiu Er came out from the step shake''s sleeve, she already knew what had happened and immediately understood the scheme between Xi Wan Rong and Phoebe. What surprised her was that Xi Jiu Er knew Miss Zheng? Or did they collude to do a play with her?


    Xi Jiu Er stared at Phoebe with a fake smile. Phoebe was not Wang Ma, Wang Ma had many rules, but Phoebe was someone who didn''t care about face. She calmly met Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, as if she could see through everything under those eyes.


    "Phoebe, why don''t you put it in my sleeve?" Xi Jiu Er did not panic in the slightest under everyone''s gaze, and instead became even calmer.


    "Miss, you, what did you say? This old servant has never done it before, it''s you, Miss ¡­ " Phoebe had a wronged expression: "Miss, this old servant has never done this, why did you push this matter to this old servant? This was obviously dropped by the Miss ¡­ Miss dares to wrongly accuse this old servant, this old servant is truly disappointed. "


    Of course, Liu Xiang knew that her Miss would not do such things. Seeing Xi Jiu Er aim her spear at his Phoebe, she immediately knew that his Phoebe must have found out about her mischief, so she said: "Phoebe, what kind of person is your Miss that you still need to steal? This is what we came here to see. Why would we do such a thing? It''s what you did, what kind of mind did you have? "


    Phoebe already knew that Xi Jiu Er was not easy to deal with, but she never expected her to be so calm, the people around her had already started discussing, but she acted as if she did not hear it, if it was any other Miss, they would already be crying in shame and anger. She felt wronged: "This old servant doesn''t know what Miss is thinking either, maybe... I haven''t brought enough silver today, right ¡­ "


    With a "pa" sound, the angry Liu Xiang threw the silver from her bosom onto the table and cursed: "Look carefully, here is two thousand gold. Is the money needed to buy this Headwear not enough?"


    Heavens, a maid has so much silver on his! Since he had so much money, he probably wouldn''t do such a petty trick! The discussions had changed, the blame was already placed on the Phoebe. Sometimes, there were servants who were greedy, but that greed was too strong, even their masters were framed, this was not justified.


    Phoebe went on to say: "Miss, there are some things that this old servant originally did not want to say, but to wrongly accuse this old servant like that really makes my heart feel cold! "You''ve kicked this silver many times already. It''s always this way. Don''t let this old servant talk back when you find out. This old servant is really ¡­"


    As expected of the Phoebe, to think of a way to escape in such a short time, the originally astonished crowd had regained their contempt, and the way they looked at Xi Jiu Er had completely changed.


    Yin Huan did not know who she should listen to, since she had already found the item, it was not related to her much, but in the end, what happened in the shop, it was better to call the shopkeeper to take care of it.


    "Yin Huan is just a servant, go and get the shopkeeper to judge!" Yin Huan went to look for the shopkeeper. Phoebe went to grab hold of Yin Huan and said, "Miss Yin Huan, since you have found the thing, don''t look for the shopkeeper anymore ¡­ "Here is some silver taels, how about you keep it and pretend nothing happened?"


    Phoebe''s words were hilarious, with so many people looking at her, she wanted to settle this matter peacefully? However, Xi Jiu Er said resolutely: "Miss Yin Huan, find the shopkeeper and let her judge this for me. As the saying goes, a straight body is not afraid of slanting shadows. Since I have never done it before, I will not be afraid! "


    "Miss, if Master finds out about this, he will definitely be angry." The Phoebe was worried.


    "Heh heh, why did the Phoebe convict me so quickly? I didn''t do anything! " Xi Jiu Er slightly smiled and said: "There are a few people with malicious intents that actually used such a despicable method to frame me. I definitely won''t let her off easy."


    When the Phoebe heard this, he became terrified. Did he really do something wrong? Impossible! Phoebe stabilized his mind.


    The commotion over here had already alarmed the shopkeeper. Sigh, endless things happened every day, it really gave her a headache: "Miss Zheng, wait a moment, I''ll be back soon."


    "I''ll go with you." The Miss Zheng asked curiously. When Miss Zheng saw the things that she had set her eyes on on on on Xi Jiu Er''s table, her expression immediately turned ugly. "You''re stealing something? It''s really too disgusting. "


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Miss Zheng, you are a daughter of a noble family, it''s best to be cautious with your words. Before you understand the situation, I advise you not to speak such nonsense."


    Miss Zheng''s face burned with anger after being treated in front of so many people, and immediately countered, "Do you still want to deny that there''s evidence and evidence? You don''t have the money to buy it, so you just have to do it yourself. "


    Xi Jiu Er still sat there unperturbed, her emotions not fluctuating in the slightest. To outsiders, Xi Jiu Er''s actions had garnered a lot of good impressions! Where in the world would there be people who weren''t afraid of anything when they did something shameful? Unless she''s too thick-skinned... However, from the looks of it, she was not an uneducated girl.


    Could it really have been done by that old woman''s servant? When the time comes, he would bite back? It wasn''t impossible, but what could possibly happen in this compound? The two servants she brought were clearly not on the same side, they were at odds!


    Mother Fu said: "This Miss Zheng, this is a matter of our Xi Family, we will naturally tell the shopkeeper about it." The underlying meaning of his words was that no need for him to speak any more nonsense. It had nothing to do with him at all. If he had nothing to do with him, why would he bring him along?


    Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, the Phoebe obviously wanted to attract the Miss Zheng to hate him. As expected, the Miss Zheng disdainfully said: "What kind of Miss has what kind of servant it is! "Since I''ve met him today, of course I can''t ignore him!"


    This time, the shopkeeper had come, and the shopkeeper had asked Yin Huan what had happened. Yin Huan explained the situation in detail, but did not add in any words.


    "Presumably, this Madame belongs to the shopkeeper here. I was about to ask the shopkeeper, for the people in your shop to slander customers for stealing without any proof, how are you going to punish them recently?" Xi Jiu Er said leisurely.


    Everyone was stunned by this statement as they all looked at Xi Jiu Er as if she was looking at a monster: Isn''t this woman''s skin too thick? Just now, I clearly saw her falling out of her sleeves and even the servants here could testify, but she just didn''t admit it.


    "Aiya, isn''t this Miss''s Miss?"


    "Eh, it really is him!"


    "Sigh, I didn''t expect the Xi Family s of the Xi Family to be like this ¡­" This what? This Miss didn''t say it, but the rumors were not good for Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng. They all said the same thing, and they were probably all the same kind of people.


    "I really couldn''t tell ¡­" Xi Family is actually this poor? "


    "Nonsense, didn''t you see how good Xi Family''s Medicinal Herb Shop is? Do you still need this little money?"


    "I guess so."


    "Maybe after the death of Miss, he would live a short life, which was why he had the idea of stealing from me!"


    The shopkeeper also recognized the famous Madame, he was familiar with all the big families in the capital. She carefully sized Xi Jiu Er up, the clothes and accessories were all excellent, and the headdress and step shake were all high grade ¡­ [It seems like they don''t have any money. How could they do such a thing?]


    When the shopkeeper heard Xi Jiu Er question him, and heard that Xi Jiu Er still doubted the conduct of the servant in the shop, he was unhappy. Although the Xi Family did not say that it was big or small, the shopkeeper still looked down on it. Today, so many people had seen everything clearly, yet this Miss did not admit to stealing, and even said such a thing!


    "This Miss, so many people have seen the step shake fall out of your sleeve, do you still want to deny it?" The manager started getting impolite as well.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly: "Sometimes what I see might not be true. The shopkeeper definitely doesn''t know that there is a type of person in this world who can steal things in the blink of an eye.


    Yo, you can even come up with such nonsense. The disdain in everyone''s eyes deepened. Some of them were just watching the show while others were just looking down on it ¡­ The shopkeeper, no matter how cultured he was, was grinded away by Xi Jiu Er, and spoke with an unfriendly tone: "I originally wanted to erase this matter, it seems like this Miss doesn''t want to. I actually want to ask this Miss if the step shake was in the box when Yin Huan gave the piece of jewelry to you. "


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er admitted it openly.


    The shopkeeper nodded: "Then, when Yin Huan came to collect them previously, did she not have any step shake left?"


    "Yes sir!" Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly.


    The shopkeeper raised his brows and laughed: "Did it fall out of Miss''s sleeve?"


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er smiled calmly.


    "Then it''s finished, this thing was stolen by you." Miss Zheng insisted.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled lightly and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, some things aren''t as simple as what we have seen."


    The shopkeeper was a knowledgeable person in the end and raised his eyebrows lightly: "Since Miss says so, and since you say that this step shake is not something Miss is capable of, then I ask Miss to give me a reasonable explanation."

 C108

    "Humph, is there still a need to find an explanation? It''s very obvious that she stole the thing, and even used force to place the blame on the servant. How shameless. " Miss Zheng pursed his lips and had a look of contempt at Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er laughed lightly: "Miss Zheng, so your Zheng Family''s daughter''s upbringing is like this?"


    "You, no matter what our education is, it''s still better than your Xi Family. I wouldn''t do something like that." Miss Zheng was once again said by Xi Jiu Er to have no manners, no manners, and was half dead. "If you have the ability to do so, then you don''t have the ability to admit it.


    Phoebe walked up and comforted her: "Don''t worry, we all saw it when you got the thing, your Miss got it and even brought it to you, it''s so shameless."


    Phoebe said in a somewhat wronged manner, "Miss Jiu Er... Let''s just buy the Headwear, Shopkeeper.


    In everyone''s eyes, Phoebe was already a loyal servant, always considering his master. However, Liu Xiang said arrogantly: "My Miss has never done it, it''s just that we haven''t done it. Why do we have to let this matter go, my Miss has plenty of silver, why care about this silver? Although the Headwear is nice to look at, it might not enter our Miss''s eyes! "


    "Miss, we cannot afford to suffer such a loss today. We must find out who the culprit is in exchange for our innocence." Liu Xiang scoffed, she believed that her own Miss would definitely be able to find the thief.


    "Someone who knows me well, Liu Xiang too." Xi Jiu Er laughed heartily. In Phoebe''s eyes, that expression was inexplicably filled with fear. She knew of Xi Jiu Er''s ability, and that Xi Jiu Er had even fallen into her hands a few times.


    "Manager, how much is this Headwear? We are willing to pay three times the price to buy it ¡­ As if nothing had happened... Ah ¡­ "As she was speaking, Phoebe was fiercely slapped by Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er said in a cold and gentle voice," Shut up, you don''t have the right to speak here. Even if you don''t say anything later, it''s not up to you. "


    Phoebe was slapped until her face flushed red, she inwardly hated Xi Jiu Er. She was the favorite in front of First Lady, and it had always been her job to hit others. Today, it was indeed her turn to be beaten!


    "Great, Great Miss, this old servant is only thinking for your sake. If Master knows about your actions, he would definitely be angry. At that time, our household''s reputation will disappear ¡­" Phoebe was secretly resentful in his heart, but it was useless as he pretended to be pitiful.


    "Liu Shui." Xi Jiu Er groaned.


    "Yes." Liu Shui stepped forward, rolled up his sleeves and slapped them hard a few times, then turned his head and asked: "Miss, is that enough?"


    "Enough." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Phoebe, you don''t have to put on an act. When the time comes, I will catch the culprit and see how you argue."


    The shopkeeper finally understood a little, Xi Family and Miss had a victorious look, it seemed like she really did not steal it. Shifting her gaze towards Phoebe, this old lady kept saying that she was saying that she was doing it for her master''s sake.


    "Since Miss Xi has said so, you probably already know who the culprit is." She said lightly. If it was this old granny, the one who would be embarrassed would be the Xi Family.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly sat down and said unhurriedly: "I have a servant girl that knows some martial arts and good memory. A while ago, she said that she seemed to have seen a thief who was offered a reward by the imperial government ¡­ She was just thinking that it would be better to have less trouble. This thief''s skills are extremely high. I''m just someone who knows a little bit of martial arts ¡­ " Actually, what Liu Shui said when she came back was that she wouldn''t have nothing better to do.


    Everyone was startled, why did Xi Jiu Er suddenly tell a story? Miss Zheng scolded: "Hey, are you alright? What does this story have to do with you stealing?"


    Everyone understood after being mentioned like this. Xi Jiu Er would not be so bored to do nothing, this Miss Zheng was truly too impulsive. Miss Zheng had an overbearing look on her face, she did not know that in everyone''s eyes, she had already become an idiot.


    Xi Jiu Er chuckled as if the Miss Zheng''s words were a fart and continued to speak. "However, that person''s appearance is what my little girl described it to me. She said that person''s right ear has a black mole the size of a mung bean ¡­" After taking a glance at Yin Huan, she was satisfied when she saw that Yin Huan''s dark expression was somewhat terrified.


    There was a black mole the size of a mung bean in his right ear? The shopkeeper couldn''t help looking at Yin Huan at the side, only to discover that she had a black mole the size of a mung bean on her ear. Her heart skipped a beat: "Could it be Yin Huan?" This Yin Huan is a thief?


    "You see, she has a black mole the size of a mung bean on her ear."


    "That''s right, it''s really true ¡­"


    "So, it really is the act of keeping watch and stealing from others!"


    Miss Zheng looked towards Yin Huan, her face darkening, she tried to defend Yin Huan: "It''s normal for her to have a mole, what does that mean? Is a mung bean-sized mole in the right ear a thief? " She just didn''t like Xi Jiu Er, who asked her to keep scolding him?


    "Hehe, Miss Zheng is right!" Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed: "Miss Zheng has really become smarter this time."


    "You!" Miss Zheng''s face turned red at those words, and she hated Xi Jiu Er to the point that his teeth itched.


    "Indeed, either a person with a mole on their right ear or a thief, but this Yin Huan ¡­ Young Master... Why do you have to dress up as a woman? I don''t understand! "


    With a boom, he disguised himself as a woman? Everyone looked at Yin Huan. This girl was very pretty, how could she be a young master? Could this Xi Jiu Er be seeing things?


    Yin Huan''s expression changed, she raised her head and used a girl''s voice: "Miss Xi, Yin Huan has no enmity with you, why are you framing Yin Huan like this? Yin Huan is a woman, a genuine woman. "


    Xi Jiu Er laughed, "Even if I say it''s an excuse, I won''t say it''s such a difficult excuse for you to disguise yourself as a girl. If you say you are a genuine girl, then find a doctor and you will know. As for the grudge between you and me, I still want to ask you, why did you set me up? "


    Yin Huan opened her mouth wide for a long time before saying: "I don''t know what Miss is saying, what does it mean."


    If Yin Huan was a thief, then they would be charged with harboring a crime committed by the imperial court, and the crime would have had to be executed.


    "Yin Huan, is what Miss Xi said true? "Are you a man, or are you a criminal under the imperial court?" The shopkeeper walked up and stood in front of Yin Huan, who had nowhere to hide, and stammered: "Shopkeeper, this Miss has no proof ¡­"


    "You''ll know when you get a doctor." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    This time, Yin Huan did not make a sound, and the shopkeeper staggered, and Yin Huan finally acknowledged it!


    Phoebe was startled, she did not expect things to turn out like this, but it was exactly what she wanted. When the time came, she would push the blame onto that person and she would have no responsibility at all!


    "We have confirmed Yin Huan''s identity, then we can speculate what happened next. When Yin Huan was cleaning up the step shake, he used his unique skills to give the medicine to mother Fu. Why not just leave it to me? "Because I was tidying my sleeves and he didn''t get the chance, she gave the hairpin to my mother beside me. When she helped me up, she took the opportunity to push the hairpin into my sleeve, so I looked like she fell out of my sleeve." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Phoebe kneeled down and said, "Miss, this old servant is innocent. This old servant is here to accompany Miss to select the Headwear. How could I do such a thing?"


    You are someone that mother likes, you are my right-hand man, mother doesn''t like me, I know that. "Su Yun said in a low voice. Xi Jiu Er''s expression had already changed to one of sorrow. The woman who was originally strong and sturdy began to shed tears silently, and changed so quickly that no one could adapt to it.


    Xi Family Jiu Er and Miss dying from childbirth was no longer a secret, and everyone knew it. Was there really a stepmother in this world who would consider a concubine''s child to be her own? Those are just empty words... Everyone already had pity in their eyes when they looked at Xi Jiu Er. Sigh ¡­ It seemed like her days were going to be tough as well. The grand first talented girl had stolen all the poems of the girl before his. He reckoned that he had gotten used to being oppressed by First Lady!


    Miss Zheng pursed her lips, she never thought that things would turn around like this. Gritting her lips and seeing that Yin Huan had already accepted, what else could she say? [Is she making it up?]


    "Phoebe, you''re still not admitting your wrongs at this time?" Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly as if everything was under her control. Phoebe''s back was already drenched in sweat, and she tried her best to stabilize her expression: "Really? This old servant has always thought of Miss and ended up like this. This old servant is not willing! "


    "Haha, just now, I heard that the Headwear was smeared with laurel. Shopkeeper, is that you?" The cinnamon that Xi Jiu Er spoke of was an oil that could take care of Headwear s. This oil carried a faint fragrance that was not pungent, and moreover, did not feel greasy. Instead, it had a kind of moisturizing feeling to it.


    "Exactly." The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows. He saw Xi Jiu Er in a much higher light and very few people knew that she was using laurel, so they thought it was just ordinary maintenance oil. This was their unique secret, even if the Headwear was released for a year or two, it would still be taken out like a new one.


    "After Yin Huan handed the things over to me, I was the only one who picked them up and looked through them. There were no outsiders, which means I was the only one who had this kind of golden cinnamon fragrance in her hands ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled as she looked at Phoebe, "Phoebe, can you extend your hand out for everyone to smell?"


    Phoebe rubbed his hands together inside his sleeves, hoping to wipe the smell off his hands. Xi Jiu Er seemed to have seen through her actions, and laughed: "Even if you were to erase this aurous incense, you won''t be able to erase the oil on it for a while."

 C109

    At this time, Liu Xiang intended to grab onto Phoebe''s hand without saying a word. Phoebe shouted: "What are you doing?


    "Liu Xiang!" Xi Jiu Er''s face sunk, her heart was filled with joy. In order to protect her mother''s image, First Lady had always liked to put on airs outside, and today, she could use Phoebe''s hand to ruin her reputation.


    "So what if you''re a First Lady? Today you framed Miss, and you were almost destroyed by Miss''s reputation, was it caused by First Lady? First Lady has always disliked Miss, so it must be First Lady who asked you to harm Miss today, right? " Liu Xiang continued to fight with Xi Jiu Er and asked.


    Phoebe often travelled to the north and south, and her strength was as strong as a man''s. How could Liu Xiang be her opponent?


    Liu Xiang bit her lips like a wronged wife, making people feel that she was a pitiful person. On the contrary, she looked at Phoebe, who had a sincere and honest expression, but deep down, her bones were in such a mess. Everyone revealed their despise, and the First Lady behind her.


    "Didn''t I already say it? Why would Xi Family Jiu Er do such a thing? It must be those villainous dog slaves. "


    "That''s right, this mother is being honest. I never expected her to be so dirty."


    "Humph!" "It''s just that this kind of servant should be beaten to death ¡­"


    These people were even more shameless than Phoebe. Phoebe''s eyes kept rolling around, thinking of a way to escape, but unfortunately, there was still evidence and evidence, what could she deny? On the other hand, Yin Huan''s face showed uncertainty, as she bit her lips and tried to take the opportunity to slip out ¡­ It was a pity that there were so many people in the hall and they were all staring at him. There were even more curious people looking at him.


    "What''s going on?" This voice? Everyone turned to look at the door. In red robes, she was even more beautiful than a woman. In the entire capital, besides the number one beauty, who else could it be?


    "Ah, it''s the Prince Xian."


    "Why is Prince Xian here?"


    "Wow, Prince Xian is so beautiful ¡­"


    Miss Zheng started to blush even more and looked a lot more bashful. As sshe walked towards Prince Xian, he carefully arranged her makeup, and bowed in front of Prince Xian: "This humble girl greets Prince Xian."


    Those Miss s were not willing to let their limelight be snatched away, so they began to play with each other in the most elegant manner they could think of, and started to speak while pinching their throats: "This humble girl greets Prince Xian."


    Xi Jiu Er''s gaze was fixated on the person who was dressed as a servant behind Prince Xian. Prince Xian used to not have this servant by his side, but the servant seemed to be deliberately concealing his appearance, making it impossible to see what he looked like clearly.


    When Prince Xian saw Xi Jiu Er, his eyes lit up, and laughed: "Why is it so lively here? Did something interesting happen? " He opened his fan and smiled faintly. It looked like he was really making the gold coins here scream.


    "Prince Xian, this is what happened ¡­"


    "Get out of my way, I''ll tell you."


    "F * ck off, I say!"


    Xi Jiu Er despised them in her heart, seeing these women fighting for the Prince Xian''s affection, yet this Prince Xian still had a face full of smiles, looking like he was in a hurry to enjoy himself! Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes, and in the end, the honor fell on Miss Zheng, who explained everything in a picturesque manner while pinching her throat, with a faint smile on her lips the entire time.


    "So that''s how it is, what about this Yin Huan?" The Prince Xian raised his eyebrows. Where did everyone see Yin Huan? The man behind him said in a low voice, "Your Highness, your subordinate has already sent people to chase him."


    This person''s voice was very nice, even if it was deliberately lowered to a whisper, it was still very nice. Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but take another glance at the attendant, who coincidentally raised his head.


    "One ran, there''s one more!" Prince Xian fanned himself with his fan, "What this net detests the most is this kind of dog slave, doing all sorts of things. Miss Zheng, tell me, how should this kind of slave be punished?"


    "This ¡­" Miss Zheng glanced at Xi Jiu Er. This was Xi Jiu Er''s subordinate, and now that Prince Xian didn''t ask Xi Jiu Er about it, he asked himself. The Prince Xian valued him more? That being the case, it would make the Prince Xian even more disappointed. After thinking for a while, he said, "This kind of servant cannot be forgiven so easily. We all know that she has done this kind of thing. "Since she has done something like stealing, otherwise she would have broken her hand and wouldn''t have to be sent to the government."


    Phoebe glanced at Xi Jiu Er, hoping that she would be able to say a few words. As long as Xi Jiu Er could take care of her, she would definitely be able to keep this hand.


    Xi Jiu Er received the Phoebe''s pleading expression, and laughed coldly in her heart, her goal today was to kill Phoebe, the Prince Xian didn''t ask her, but asked Miss Zheng instead, so she wanted to thank him properly. When the time comes, First Lady will blame Miss Zheng and Prince Xian for it. Prince Xian is not something a little Xi Family could afford to offend, with Mubai supporting her, how would she dare to offend him?


    "What does Miss Xi think?" The Prince Xian asked with a smile.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head: "It is entirely up to Prince Xian."


    "Miss, save this servant, this old servant has kowtowed to you, I have kowtowed to you!" The Phoebe cried.


    Xi Jiu Er sighed: "If today''s Phoebe''s scheme succeeded, I, Xi Jiu Er, would become the laughing stock of the capital tomorrow. Do you think I would let you off lightly?"


    Phoebe''s face was ashen. She never would have thought that Xi Jiu Er would be able to walk out of this mystery, much less come here after eating her fill.


    "Someone, take this woman down and chop off her hand." Killing intent flashed past Prince Xian''s eyes, but he continued to smile.


    Miss Zheng said that he would cut her hand off, but Prince Xian actually wanted to chop it off. All of the Miss''s expression changed, but Prince Xian said: "This can be considered as giving an example to your servants."


    These words caused the Miss to retract their pitiful thoughts. That''s right, if today''s matter had happened to them, then their reputation would have been ruined! It was time to give his maidservant a warning.


    "Thank you, Prince Xian, thank you very much." Xi Jiu Er bowed to two of them. Prince Xian stepped forward and helped her up, and under her sleeves, Prince Xian squeezed her arm and laughed: "It was a simple gesture, not worth mentioning at all."


    Outside, the Phoebe''s wailing voice could be heard, and after a while, there was no sound. The Prince Xian said to the shopkeeper: "Since you have wronged Miss Xi, give me something as compensation."


    "Yes." The manager nodded.


    Prince Xian''s action caused all the Miss s to be displeased. Some were envious, some were jealous ¡­ In a short moment, the shopkeeper brought out a pair of earrings. They were of medium quality, neither high nor low quality. Liu Xiang asked from behind Xi Jiu Er: "Shopkeeper, how much silver?"


    "This is for Miss Xi." The manager said.


    Liu Xiang shook her head: "Our Miss always goes from one yard to one yard, this matter is also our mother''s fault. Since it is also our fault, it can be considered equal, so we must at least pay the silver."


    "This ¡­" The shopkeeper looked at Prince Xian, who nodded, since Xi Jiu Er did not lack any money.


    After paying the bill, Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui and the unconscious Phoebe back to the residence. Miss Zheng pulled Prince Xian and asked incessantly, what about this, what about that? Prince Xian was very considerate to tell her her point of view, causing the girls to feel extremely upset.


    But there was nothing they could do, after all, the Miss Zheng was her little sister, how could they compare to him?


    On the carriage, Phoebe woke up from the pain. Looking at her bare hands, she screamed: "Ahhh! My hands, my hands!"


    "Phoebe, your hand has already been chopped off by Prince Xian." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Losing her hands meant she had lost everything. For a healthy person to suddenly lose the ability to endure life, it was undoubtedly a disaster for the Phoebe. Phoebe could not accept this fact and screamed, "My hand, my hand..."


    Not long after Xi Jiu Er returned to her residence, First Lady also returned. Xi Wan Rong, First Lady and Xi Hong Sheng who was still in the middle of the journey were waiting for him on the way back. Xi Wan Rong looked at Xi Jiu Er''s gloomy face and smiled like a flower: "Sister Jiu Er is back!"


    Xi Jiu Er forced out a smile. From Xi Wan Rong''s point of view, he thought that his scheme had succeeded, and was already blooming in joy in his heart. "Why are you so early today?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at First Lady with a troubled expression, as if she found it hard to speak. I... "Me."


    Xi Wan Rong smiled from the side: "If you have anything, just say it, my sister. Our family will resolve the problem eventually." Speak, speak, then we will see how father will deal with you.


    "mother... Phoebe''s hands were chopped off ¡­ " Xi Jiu Er threw down a fierce piece of news, shocking the three of them, especially the two First Lady s and Xi Wan Rong. Phoebe had followed the First Lady for almost twenty years, and he had always been trusted by the First Lady, hence he did things extremely well. Xi Wan Rong was shocked, how could his hand be broken? Could the plan have failed?


    "What''s going on?" First Lady asked in shock, "Who did it?"


    "Yes ¡­" It was made by the Prince Xian. " Xi Jiu Er said in a low voice.


    Prince Xian? How could she chop off Phoebe''s hand like that? First Lady instinctively looked towards Xi Jiu Er with suspicion, certain that Xi Jiu Er had done something to Phoebe. The relationship between Xi Jiu Er and Prince Xian could clearly be felt by First Lady.


    "Tell me, what is going on?" Xi Wan Rong couldn''t wait either.


    Xi Jiu Er glanced at Xi Hong Sheng, who was also very curious about what was going on and why was this related to the Prince Xian! Xi Jiu Er sighed and said: "Elder Sister Rong, do not be anxious, just listen to what I have to say."


    Therefore, Xi Jiu Er had to tell Xi Hong Sheng everything that had happened. She did not say much, nor did she think much of him. Xi Wan Rong squinted, Miss Zheng? But Mubai''s sister? Xi Wan Rong felt the pressure.


    The Zheng Family and the Chu Family were the same hundred years old big families, the real aristocratic families were all noble and noble. It was not something that a person like Xi Family could compare to.

 C110

    First Lady was shocked and amazed again. He looked at Xi Wan Rong and didn''t know what to feel, but if it wasn''t for his own daughter, such a problem definitely wouldn''t have occurred. Phoebe had followed him for so many years, yet he gave it away like that ¡­ He even had the reputation of being a thief!


    When Xi Hong Sheng heard this, his expression immediately changed. He thought that Phoebe was a victim, but he did not expect her to be the perpetrator. Now, he had lost all his face in front of so many people.


    "Slut, look at what kind of servant you''re raising and do all these dirty things. Just looking at them makes you feel extremely disgusted." Xi Hong Sheng flipped over and gave First Lady a slap. The First Lady clenched his teeth and said softly, "Master, I think this matter is fishy. Think about it, Phoebe has always been doing things for me, and being like this after going out with Jiu Er today, there must be someone framing her and setting our Xi Family up for injustice."


    Just as First Lady finished speaking, Xi Jiu Er said: "Father, daughter thinks that this matter is definitely because of the Zheng Family''s injustice. That Miss Zheng kept saying that her daughter stole the step shake, and even sent people to search for her. It puzzled the daughter. "


    Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes flashed and even the First Lady opened his mouth wide. Maybe the matter really was the Zheng Family''s doing! Xi Jiu Er successfully shifted her gaze. At least, it was Xi Hong Sheng, who stood up and paced a few rounds before saying: "I have something to do, so I won''t be back for dinner tonight."


    "Yes." Only then did First Lady''s complexion turn better. As long as Xi Hong Sheng left, she would slowly fix this little bitch Xi Jiu Er and see how arrogant she was!


    It seems Xi Family and the Zheng Family must have something. Xi Hong Sheng had seen through Xi Hong Sheng very clearly, but this kind of person had a smooth career, the Wei Guogong did not really put in much effort, but when Xi Hong Sheng used the name of Wei Guogong, he made the Wei Guogong turn a blind eye! The families of the First Lady and the Beishan Wang and the Third Wife had given a lot of help, but in the end, it was as if the heavens were right in front of them. Xi Hong Sheng and some official of the imperial government must have some sort of inseparable connection ¡­


    Before Xi Jiu Er could think it through, the First Lady flew into a rage. She raised her hand with the intent to slap, but luckily Xi Jiu Er had enough time to react and retreated a step, smiling coldly at the First Lady: "mother, what are you doing?"


    "Xi Jiu Er, after so many years, the mother has treated you as her own daughter, yet you still dare to do such a thing. First Lady said with a face full of anger: "Did you steal the step shake and give it to Phoebe? Does mother not know what kind of person he is? They must have used some sort of trick. "


    Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "Firstly, I am not so poor as to not have the money to buy it and steal it. Secondly, do the mother suspect me? At that time, there were so many people present, and the Prince Xian was also present. Or were their eyes blind? Third, I have no enmity with Phoebe, this is the second time I have met her, why would I harm her? My daughter was even curious as to why Phoebe wanted to harm me, and wanted to discredit me. " Turning her head to look at Xi Wan Rong, he asked, "Is this a trick used by the Elder Sister Rong?"


    Everyone was well aware of some things, so there was no need to break through that layer of window paper. Xi Wan Rong knew that Xi Jiu Er had definitely suspected her, no, it was definitely done by herself, but she couldn''t admit it any longer, "How could I possibly harm you, Little Sister Jiu Er, stop thinking about it."


    "That''s strange." Xi Jiu Er said with a face full of curiosity: "Phoebe is one of mother''s subordinates, could it be that mother is the one behind this?"


    First Lady laughed coldly: "Heh, it was all thanks to you thinking about it!" Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Speaking of Prince Xian, mother seems to have taken a liking to you. Do you want mother to find a matchmaker and have you become a secondary wife?"


    Wangfei? I don''t care! Xi Jiu Er knew that it was First Lady''s attempt to probe him, and said indifferently: "Jiu Er knows what she''s worth, and marrying a Prince Xian is simply wishful thinking. Furthermore, the Prince Xian doesn''t even look at me properly, I think the Prince Xian has his eyes on the Miss Zheng, when two people are together, it would be like a pair of immortal companions. " Xi Jiu Er did not give up the opportunity to sow discord.


    At first, Xi Wan Rong was very happy when he heard Xi Jiu Er''s self-knowledge, but after he heard Miss Zheng, he became unhappy. Although Miss Zheng''s family background was better than his, she still wasn''t as pretty as him. Xi Wan Rong buried his head and started to think about some schemes and tricks again ¡­ At first glance, he could tell that he was thinking of how to squeeze out that Miss Zheng and marry him off.


    Seeing that her daughter was so disappointing, First Lady sighed in his heart. What should she do, she didn''t have a brain. One could tell that Xi Jiu Er was intentionally saying this to cause Xi Wan Rong to misunderstand, and Xi Wan Rong was very much following Xi Jiu Er''s train of thought.


    "Alright, you can leave now." The First Lady had a headache. This time, with so many people watching and the Prince Xian as a witness, she could not do anything to Xi Jiu Er. Not only had she lost her Phoebe, she had also suffered a loss due to her words.


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er knew that First Lady couldn''t do anything about him, and was simply too happy to see her twisted and suppressed face. Xi Jiu Er suddenly had an idea. Why didn''t she add fuel to the fire?


    "mother, since Phoebe is so pitiful, your daughter will go and prepare some silver for him, which can be considered as a comfort to her. Right ¡­ I forgot, Prince Xian told me to give this to Elder Sister Rong ¡­ " With that, Xi Jiu Er took out a pair of earrings, and said in a righteous tone: "Prince Xian said that earrings are not very good, but don''t make it sound like it, and give it to Elder Sister Rong!"


    "Ah, really?" Xi Wan Rong happily accepted the hand, as if the thing in front of his eyes was a priceless treasure. First Lady, who was at the side, looked and shook his head: Stupid, this is obviously just Xi Jiu Er''s trick, but seeing her daughter being so happy, she really can''t be shocked.


    "I''ll be taking my leave, daughter ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly, then elegantly left.


    "Rong Er!" When First Lady saw Xi Wan Rong''s earring that looked like a rare treasure, she could not bear to see it any longer, "This was definitely not given to you by Prince Xian, don''t daydream."


    "mother! This is obviously a gift from Prince Xian. The last time we met, he stared at my earrings and did not say a word, he definitely thought that my earrings were unsightly, so he gave her another pair. " Xi Wan Rong defended herself, but she had already given the pile of earrings to the servants.


    "You." First Lady didn''t know what to say, but she could only let Xi Wan Rong daydream for a bit. She had to go see the Phoebe, and when she thought about it, her heart ached.


    Phoebe cried out in pain inside the house. After the ointment, she could no longer tell where her hand was! When she saw First Lady''s figure, she was so happy that it seemed like something was up. She cried and shouted, "First Lady, this old servant doesn''t want to live anymore, I don''t want to live anymore ¡­"


    First Lady felt uncomfortable in his heart as he looked at the dispirited and dispirited Phoebe, "What nonsense are you talking about?! How are you not living?! You''re still living well!"


    "This old servant is already like this, wuu ¡­" Phoebe also understood that with her current situation, there was no longer any future for her. First Lady would definitely not use her again, how will she live on in the future? This won''t do, she had worked hard for the First Lady for so many years, no matter what, she had to get the First Lady to give her some benefits so that she could live as long as possible.


    "Phoebe... Your hand... "I will make it up to you ¡­" First Lady said softly, "I will let you enjoy your later years."


    Phoebe was so happy with this promise, he could feel it, and was overjoyed: "Thank you, First Lady, thank you."


    "Rest for now. I''ll arrange a place for you to go once you''re done recuperating." First Lady sighed.


    "Yes, yes." Phoebe felt that her hands were not as painful as before. When First Lady was about to leave her room, she said: "First Lady, Xi Jiu Er, you have to be careful, she is not a good person."


    Thank you, Phoebe, for your advice. First Lady smiled and left. Xi Jiu Er was a wolf in sheep''s clothing. Seeing that the animals were more venomous than her, she couldn''t understand why there would be such a huge change right under her nose. Could it be that medicine ¡­ Isn''t that drug driving people crazy? How could the effects be different?


    When Wang Ma heard the news from Phoebe, she felt grief in her heart. She and Phoebe had worked for First Lady at the same time, and the shady things that happened in First Lady all these years were done by two people, the Phoebe had already lost its use, and this result ¡­ I''m afraid ¡­ Wang Ma felt sad.


    When First Lady returned to his room with a dark face, he immediately went to serve him. After he let out a sigh, he asked softly, "Madame, the kitchen has been boiled with tremella porridge. See ¡­"


    "Sigh, Wang Ma, how do you want me to punish you? You know that Phoebe knows so many things about me, it would be hard to not feel at ease if it were to be released. " First Lady sighed as he looked at Wang Ma. Wang Ma''s heart suddenly skipped a beat and that sorrowful feeling came back to him again.


    The First Lady already had a plan, and yet he still had to ask. Firstly, he wanted to test his own loyalty, and secondly, to ask for a conscience! I just wanted to borrow his hand ¡­ He had served the First Lady for so many years, but in the end, he could not be trusted by the First Lady.


    "Since Phoebe knows so much, of course he can''t leave them be." He somewhat pitied the Phoebe, but also pitied himself.


    "Yes - I''ll leave Ann to you." First Lady said softly: "I can''t bear to see my master and servant fight."


    I must be afraid of Phoebe''s vicious eyes! Wang Ma suddenly felt that it was laughable. He smirked and lowered his head, saying, "Yes, wait till this old servant takes care of this matter."


    "I trust you." First Lady said as he held his forehead: "I have a headache recently, and my heart is beating really fast. Help me rest."


    "Yes." Wang Ma held onto First Lady''s hand and laid on his bed. He looked at the sky and saw that not only did First Lady die, but he also wanted Phoebe to bear all the crimes. How could the loving First Lady order his servants to do such a thing? She must have been greedy.

 C111

    Xi Mao, who was ten years old, brought his manservant to the Fighting Cricket Market. This was a place where the cardinals of the capital preyed on crickets. During this period of time, First Lady had taken the opportunity to slip away to the crickets gambling den. In just half a month, he had lost fifty to sixty thousand.


    The servant continued to persuade him, but Xi Mao did not pay any attention to him, and said without a care: "Isn''t it just fifty or sixty thousand, mother has plenty of silver, so he doesn''t care about that. "If you let this information leak out and your father finds out, I will definitely skin you alive."


    He finally told his master everything that he was going to tell First Lady. First Lady then stood up and scolded: "You actually brought Young Master to that kind of place, and you even owe me seventy or eighty thousand. You bastard actually didn''t stop Master, see if I''ll beat you to death today or not."


    De Quan slapped First Lady hard a few times, but he did not dare to make a sound. Only after First Lady finished did he heave a sigh of relief. He didn''t believe that the First Lady didn''t understand what kind of son he had.


    "You have to keep this matter a secret from the Master, okay?" First Lady asked De Quan to bring Xi Mao over for her. When he sat down on the chair, he gasped for breath, and his face had already distorted.


    Wang Ma scolded Xi Mao on the inside. She said that Xi Mao was even more of a money loser, seventy to eighty thousand, that was all silver. Spending so much money just fighting crickets would make him lose a lot of his family property. Wang Ma was also angered, and he said to First Lady: "Madame, don''t be angry, your body is better off so you should be more careful. "Little Young Master is still young and insensible. As long as we properly educate her, such things would naturally not happen, and she would definitely be led astray by those little Young Master from other families."


    "This brat, look at him. I''ll teach him a lesson today." First Lady gnashed his teeth. Wang Ma knew that she was just saying that was all. This Xi Mao was her greatest reliance, if anything were to happen to her, who would she be able to rely on in the future?


    After a while, Xi Mao arrived. He had probably guessed something, and said with an embarrassed face: "mother ¡­ Hehe, who told you to get angry ¡­ "Ahhh!"


    "Madame!" Wang Ma was also shocked, she looked at the First Lady fiercely slapping Xi Mao for a long time, and she didn''t react for a long time.


    "You really have big balls, fighting crickets and fighting crickets can earn seventy to eighty thousand yuan, do you think that the mother is a bank? No matter how much money you have, it won''t be enough for you to spend ¡­ mother will not help you hide this matter. I will definitely tell your father and let him punish you. " First Lady was so angry that she was trembling. Eighty thousand, not seventy to eighty thousand, this was something that she had dug out bit by bit.


    The moment he heard that he was going to tell Xi Hong Sheng, Xi Mao''s expression immediately changed. He immediately pulled at First Lady''s hand and cried, "mother, mother, I won''t dare to do it again, I won''t do it recklessly, please forgive me this time, I was wrong ¡­" Woo woo ¡­ * If I tell father and son, they''ll be beaten to death. "


    How could the First Lady tell Xi Hong Sheng the truth? It was just to scare Xi Mao a little, so he said with a fierce face: "It''s normal to beat you to death, look what you have become now ¡­"


    "mother, your son knows his wrongs. Your son will never dare to do it again, never again ¡­" Xi Mao cried her nose and tears. First Lady also felt her heart ache seeing him like this, but she could not hug him in her arms. He could only harden his heart and shout, "I don''t dare to do that again. I think you''re quite bold."


    "mother, your son really does not dare to ¡­" Xi Mao cried.


    First Lady has finally come to a compromise: "Alright, alright, your mother won''t tell your father, but this kind of thing is not allowed to happen again. When this happens, mother won''t be able to protect you! You''re all right, you know? "


    "Yes, I understand. Thank you, mother, thank you ¡­" Xi Mao was overjoyed! First Lady waved for him to leave. During this period of time, he had to return to the school on time and not be late or early.


    Although Xi Mao was unwilling, he still reluctantly agreed and went back dejectedly.


    The First Lady said helplessly: "I really don''t know what to do about this child."


    "This old servant does think that little Young Master is a smart and sensible child. "He must have been bewitched by someone." Wang Ma immediately calmed down, hoping that she would be happy. This Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng and the others all needed First Lady''s help.


    Who knew that this matter would happen so quickly? Xi Hong Sheng found out the next day! Xi Hong Sheng did not know who said it, but he immediately went to interrogate Xi Mao. Xi Mao was after all, only ten years old. When Xi Hong Sheng heard that it was true, he immediately trapped Xi Mao.


    First Lady was the first to know about this and immediately sent someone to report to the old Madame. Although the old Madame did not really love Xi Wan Rong much anymore, Xi Mao was still very much in love with her.


    "Hurry, go report to the old Madame, say... They say that Master wants to beat Xi Mao to death ¡­ " The First Lady ordered as she rushed to Xi Mao''s courtyard.


    From far away, he could hear Xi Mao''s hysterical crying. First Lady''s heart was about to break ¡­ Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong also rushed over. Xi Wan Feng held her hands and asked: "mother, didn''t father come quickly to love little brother? "Why is this today?" The sound sent chills down one''s spine.


    Xi Wan Rong also shook his body and asked softly: "mother, what happened?"


    "Your little brother went to fight crickets and lost seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver ¡­." After all, she was his daughter, so there was no need for him to hide it. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng took in a deep breath at the same time. What? He needed to hit, he needed to hit properly in order to have a good memory.


    After a woman marries, she still had to rely on her parents, who could flourish in her parents'' home, so it was natural for them to hope for Xi Mao''s growth. This would be of great help to them.


    Xi Wan Rong''s face darkened, Xi Wan Feng''s expression did not look good, and First Lady said: "Your brother was tricked by someone, someone wanted to harm her." Upon saying that, the two of them looked at each other, and simultaneously thought of the same person ¡ª ¡ª Xi Jiu Er!


    Could she have done it? Perhaps ¡­


    When First Lady entered the courtyard, he saw Xi Mao tied up on a tree and crying loudly. The surrounding servants were all kneeling in silence, they were so frightened that they didn''t even dare to breathe loudly. De Quan was lying on the ground, and his body was covered in wounds.


    "mother, save me ¡­" When Xi Mao saw First Lady and the others coming over, he immediately shouted for help, "Big sister, second sister, quickly save me ¡­ ¡­"


    First Lady''s heart was about to break. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng also felt their hearts ache! First Lady bit her lips and could not beg, she was afraid that when the time came, her begging would become more and more serious, she could only wait anxiously for the old Madame to come and see if he had arrived. As long as Old Madame protected Xi Mao, nothing would happen.


    smiled indifferently at their resentful gazes. So what if this was her doing, so what if they did not have any evidence, what could they do to her? Could it be that she was forcing Xi Mao to play with the crickets? What a joke!


    Third Wife''s eyes were filled with schadenfreude. He placed his hand on top of Mother Fang''s hand and asked: "What happened, why did something like this happen?"


    Yan Er said indifferently: "I''m afraid that it was a great disaster that led to such a ruthless attack. Xi Hong Sheng was only worth two taels of silver. For Xi Mao and Xi Rui to be able to be viciously beaten by him, it was definitely not an ordinary small matter.


    At this time, the old Madame came over with the mother of joy. The old Madame shouted, "If you dare to hit me again, I''ll immediately die for you to see." The old Madame was blushing, he did not know if she was angry.


    Xi Hong Sheng raised his hand and stopped moving. If the old Madame really died, wouldn''t he be blamed for being unfilial? He helplessly said: "mother, it''s not that your son wants to hit him, it''s just that this stinking brat is too ¡­ If I don''t teach him a lesson today to let him remember, I''m afraid he might end up with some trouble in the future. "


    "Is it going to work just like that? Wouldn''t they beat him to death every day? When you were young, didn''t you do a lot of things wrong? In the end, wasn''t mother still the one whispering to you, lecturing you! "Where''s the child that you''re teaching?" The old Madame saw that Xi Mao was tied to the tree and his heart started to hurt.


    "mother... "You, you can''t say that either. You, you don''t know what this bastard did ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng said somewhat helplessly.


    "He''s only a ten-year old child. What can she do? Isn''t that a capital offense? " The old Madame shouted. Previously, when the First Lady had people invite the Old Madame, they said that Xi Mao had fought crickets with the other students and lost some silver. He didn''t say how much.


    "Do you think I don''t know? It''s just that we lost some silver from fighting crickets with the students of the academy. Don''t you think our Xi Family doesn''t even have this little silver? "If you don''t have any silver, this old woman will pay it back." The old Madame started to criticize his son, "Hmph, for such a small amount of money, look at how badly you beat Mao''er up. If others were to find out, what would they say about our Xi Family? You don''t even have this much money, and you''ve almost beat your child to death. God knows how many people will laugh at our Xi Family. "


    "mother ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng shouted helplessly.


    "If you dare hit Mao again, see how I''ll deal with you." Old Madame sneered and ordered the mother of joy to untie Xi Mao. Then she took a glance at Third Wife and frowned: "You''re about to give birth, why are you still joining in on the fun? "Go back quickly!"

 C112

    "Yes." Third Wife did not leave even though she said yes. How could she leave? There was still a good show to watch, but there might be some surprises today. Thus, he gave the Mother Fang a cue to bring a stool over for himself to sit on.


    Looking at the old Madame who had completely lost all reason to differentiate between the two because of Xi Mao, she sneered in her heart. She lost without even blinking at the age of ten. What''s the point in growing up?


    How old was Xi Hong Sheng to wait for so many people to scold him in front of so many people, to make him lose his face? His old face was red and black, but the other party was his mother. Thus, he could only clench his teeth and ask in a soft voice: "mother, do you know how much money this beast owes us?" You wouldn''t say that about me if you knew.


    The old Madame looked like Xi Mao was just a child who was ten years old. How many times could he lose? Could it be that he would cause the entire Xi Family to lose all? Therefore, she didn''t feel relieved at all. "I can lose a few sons and get out."


    When Xi Mao saw that the situation had changed, he asked for a denial, "Grandmother, Grandmother, Mao''er will never dare to do that again. "Sob, sob ¡­"


    Tears streamed down Old Madame''s face. "You''re still fighting? Didn''t you hear that he already said she knew she was wrong? Look at how you beat up my Mao''er."


    When Xi Hong Sheng saw that his mother was a completely undiscriminating person, he could not help but hit Xi Mao with all his strength. "You prodigal son, why are you still not telling your Grandmother how much you''ve lost!"


    "Stop, stop!" The old Madame scolded loudly, "I told you to stop, are you trying to beat my darling grandson to death!?"


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head and guessed that the matter might still not be known to Old Madame, she did not know how many rounds Xi Mao had lost, one must know that Old Madame was a greedy person, if she knew that Xi Mao had lost so much silver, would she be angered to death? She looked at Third Wife with her eyes.


    How could Third Wife s who were intelligent not figure it out? He immediately said, "I say, little Young Master, look at how angry you are with me! Hurry and tell Old Madame how much you have lost! "


    Xi Mao was not stupid, he bit his lips and looked at First Lady, who looked at him with a gaze, telling him not to say anything, she would think of a way. Therefore, Xi Mao gritted his teeth and did not say anything.


    This old Madame could also tell that this brat did not speak the truth even after asking for a long time. It must be a huge matter to see his son hit him so viciously. Could it be that he really lost a lot of money? The old Madame started to become anxious.


    "Father, daughter saw that little brother is still doing his best to beat us up. Silver is a small matter, but if word of this gets out, we Xi Family will definitely suffer the consequences. Our Xi Family can be considered one of the top in the capital! " Xi Jiu Er said coldly.


    These words made Xi Hong Sheng choke on his words, because Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng and his three daughters, Xi Mansion''s reputation was already very bad. If this were to become out of the ordinary and he lost all face, he would say: "I''ll let you go gamble, I''ll let you go gamble, it''ll be weird if I don''t plan for today."


    "Father, father, stop hitting me ¡­" Xi Mao trembled from the pain and cried out, "mother, save me ¡­"


    First Lady stared at Xi Jiu Er hatefully, and Xi Wan Rong scolded loudly: "What kind of peace are you living? She''s also your little brother, isn''t she happy to see your little brother getting beaten up? "


    Wrong, it''s your little brother, not my little brother. "Xi Jiu Er scoffed in her heart, yet remained as unmoving as a mountain and only faintly smiled:" Why are Elder Sister Rong angry, what I said is the truth. Look at how my little brother is only ten years old and he already went to gamble.


    "You!" Xi Wan Feng pulled Xi Wan Rong but did not speak, she also felt that her little brother had gone overboard this time, Xi Wan Rong also felt that her little brother was asking for a beating, the 70,000 silver had gone overboard just like that, how could she not be angry, from now on, wouldn''t she be wasting her family''s money?


    When the First Lady heard Xi Mao''s heart-wrenching screams, he started crying, "Master... Stop fighting... Are you trying to beat me to death? I only have this kind of child ¡­ If you kill me, this will be my life. "


    After saying that, the First Lady went to beg and pull Xi Hong Sheng away. How could Xi Hong Sheng, who was so angry that his eyes were red, still hear him? "Get out of the way, you still have the nerve to say it. Look at this, it''s all because of the good sons you taught.


    As he said that, he picked up the thorny branch and smashed it onto First Lady''s body. First Lady''s face became pale from the pain, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng both shouted, "mother!" As he said that, he rushed over and hugged the First Lady and her mother, crying together.


    Xi Jiu Er''s lips curled into a cold smile, she was afraid that this situation would not end well for Xi Hong Sheng. Therefore, the helpless Xi Hong Sheng was furious, he could not hit the old Madame, and had to stop him. He could not hit the old Madame either, if word of this got out, he would probably get a harsh wife''s name, so he kicked the old man fiercely: "Speak, tell the Grandmother how much money you have lost."


    Xi Mao saw that the First Lady was unable to protect him and immediately said, "Grandmother, my grandson ¡­ "Grandson lost seventy thousand silver taels ¡­"


    The old Madame almost fainted in a blink of an eye. A ten year old child actually lost seventy thousand, and it was even a cricket fight. The old Madame was about to faint, but the old Madame held her in place for a while before she managed to catch her breath.


    "Seventy thousand ¡­" "You evil creature, hurry up and tell me the truth. If you don''t explain it clearly to me, I''ll beat your father to death today." The old Madame''s eyes were red. Although 70,000 was not a big deal, it was still silver. The old Madame couldn''t help but look at Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er''s medicine shop was the most valuable shop in the capital right now, and she had already asked Lao Xu about it. If it really didn''t work out, Xi Jiu Er would give her the silver. She should give Xi Mao to her brother.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the Old Madame, her eyes filled with scheming, and she knew what she was thinking. She sneered. It depended on whether she was willing or not. Don''t let a single one of her sons get the money today.


    Xi Mao was both afraid and pained, he had no strength left in him now: "Grandmother, it''s just that this grandson got such a strong cricket that day, so my schoolmate said that it''s better to fight a cricket, I just want to fight crickets, so I won''t lose much ¡­ Thus, he made two bets ¡­ Who would have thought that they would actually ¡­ He actually lost more and more ¡­ Unknowingly, he had already owed more than ten thousand ¡­ [My grandson is unwilling to accept this, and wants to turn over a new leaf ¡­] "Then..." "Then ¡­" He owed them a huge sum of money.


    This was in the hearts of every gambler, so it was not surprising! Usually, they would be stuck in a quagmire with the intention of flipping through their books, unable to extricate themselves. They could only sink deeper and deeper into the quagmire.


    "It will be hard to change my mindset in the future. I am only ten years old ¡­" Xi Jiu Er sighed with an expression of pity! Yan Er sneered from the side: "Seventy thousand, if word got out, people would be sure to say that the Master won''t even raise a child badly!"


    When Xi Hong Sheng thought about it, he felt extremely aggrieved. He immediately said: "I didn''t bring you seventy thousand and I won''t pay it back for you. Keep dreaming."


    Xi Mao shrank back, but he was not afraid in his heart. If you don''t return the favor to mother, then he will naturally return it for me. First Lady understood Xi Hong Sheng, upon hearing Xi Hong Sheng''s words, he guessed that it was about to end, and so he rolled his eyes and was about to faint.


    "mother!"


    "mother!"


    "First Lady ¡­"


    Third Wife sneered. She was naturally the oldest at the moment, so she said to Xi Jiu Er: "Miss, you saw that First Lady has fainted. Why aren''t you going to pinch him?"


    Xi Jiu Er immediately had Liu Shui, who was beside him, wake him up right away. "Liu Shui, mother fainted. He looked extremely worried, even more worried and worried than Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng, his two daughters.


    "Yes."


    "What are you doing? Scram." Xi Wan Rong already knew that Xi Jiu Er was not that kind, it was probably caused by Liu Shui secretly doing something, he immediately waved his hand to tell Liu Shui to scram, but he could do nothing about it as he was unable to push away Liu Shui. He squatted in front of First Lady and pinched his throat, causing First Lady to shout out in pain.


    "First Lady, you finally woke up. This is great, this matter needs to be resolved first. Old Madame, you can''t just let this money go out of the public accounts, what do you think? " Third Wife looked at First Lady with a cold smile, then turned towards the old Madame and smiled coquettishly.


    When these words came out, everyone was shocked and did not know how to react. Shouldn''t Third Wife add insult to injury? How could he be so kind as to ask the public to fork out such a sum of money? At this moment, everyone clearly understood Third Wife''s intention. Old Madame originally wanted to set up a trap for Xi Jiu Er, but since she wasn''t willing to use the public accounting books, she said: "Let''s do it like this, we will give out a few from each courtyard ¡­ "Gather together." Without leaving a trace, she looked towards Xi Jiu Er, who was currently the richest person in the family. With such a situation occurring in the family, with Xi Mao being her younger brother, she should have done more to help.


    Xi Jiu Er, the old Madame, did not take the words of the old Madame to heart, and the old Madame immediately became angry.


    "mother, there''s no need for you to come out, whatever this brat does, he should be held responsible. Normally, it''s his mother who teaches him, so if something like this happens, he must take responsibility." Xi Hong Sheng shouted angrily, but in his opinion, Xi Mao''s disobedience was entirely due to the responsibility of the First Lady. Seeing how she had not only raised her daughter up to such a state, but now that even her sons were gambling, he started to resent the First Lady in his heart.


    First Lady was also laughing at this time to make the old Madame happy. If she lost the trust of the old Madame, this would result in ¡­ Immediately, she said, "mother, Mao''er did something wrong. How can we use the public accounts properly? daughter-in-law and Master ¡­ "I''ll pay it back as soon as I gather together." 70,000! Her heart was about to break.

 C113

    How could he have money? Xi Hong Sheng stared at the First Lady and wondered, could it be that the First Lady had private money? That''s true. Every woman has their own private money, as well as their dowry ¡­ Xi Hong Sheng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He never thought that his Madame was actually so wealthy.


    On the other hand, Third Wife who had been fighting with him for so many years, was puzzled. If you want to take the public accounts, you have to look at the books. Could it be that when you look at the books ¡­ Third Wife''s eyes lit up as he understood the situation. This First Lady must have done something to the account book!


    Xi Jiu Er was very close to her, and she heard Xi Jiu Er''s soft words: "Do you think that Old Madame will let her manage this large Xi Family after making a mistake?"


    The Third Wife caressed his lower abdomen and said worriedly, "But I''m about to be born, this ¡­" Following Xi Jiu Er''s gaze, she saw Yan Er''s beautiful side profile. Xi Jiu Er said softly: "As long as you capture the official accounts, you can take as much silver as you want. At that time, just push it to First Lady."


    Third Wife''s eyes immediately lit up. That''s right! He believed that Xi Hong Sheng''s favor of him and Yan Er would definitely be given to him to manage the Xi Family. At that time, not only would she be able to do something about it, she could even make the First Lady suffer. She wanted to scheme for her child, Xi Jiu Er did not lack money, but she cared.


    Hearing that First Lady actually took out seventy thousand, it was obvious that she had been greedy for at least a hundred thousand for so many years, maybe even more than that. The Third Wife suppressed his excitement and said, "Since that is the case, we should put forth as much strength as we can. I bid three thousand silvers."


    Xi Jiu Er thought to herself: "Third Wife is smart, I''ll offer ten thousand."


    Xi Jiu Er was the most rich in Xi Family, everyone had witnessed it, it was already not bad that she was willing to pay ten thousand! But those insatiable people wanted nothing more than for her to pay them all. When the old Madame heard that she was not satisfied with the price, no matter what, she would at least pay thirty thousand. Even with these few shops, the heart-nourishing hall was still so stingy.


    Xi Jiu Er could tell what the old Madame was thinking just from her expression, and she laughed coldly in her heart. She heard Xi Wan Rong mutter, "Tsk, so you have a good heart now? "Hrmph." What? It''s only ten thousand taels. How petty.


    Xi Wan Feng said with a dark face: "Thank you, Little Sister Jiu Er."


    However, Xi Jiu Er smiled and said: "Don''t be so polite, we are family, Mao''er is also my little brother!" These words almost made First Lady and the others puke. What did she mean by family, only those who have been secretly hurt by Xi Jiu Er before would know how much of a hypocrite she was, and how vicious she was.


    First Lady had already experienced Xi Jiu Er''s craftiness, and was afraid that the silver would not be easy to obtain, so he said: "Hehe, how can mother accept Jiu Er''s silver? You are still an unmarried woman, there is no way mother would want your silver. "


    "mother, please don''t say no." Xi Wan Rong was unhappy, ah, ten thousand gold, if he could save some, why not save some! Shouldn''t she, Xi Jiu Er, take out her silver? The First Lady''s silver was also for the three siblings.


    Only Xi Wan Feng knew First Lady''s intentions, and agreed: "That''s right, Little Sister Jiu Er hasn''t even gotten married, there''s no need to give us this silver." Seeing Xi Wan Rong was about to say something, she used a voice that only had two voices and said, "I''m afraid that this little slut is trying to cheat us, we have to be cautious."


    This time, Xi Wan Rong was honest, she had experienced Xi Jiu Er''s methods before, being able to take out 10,000 pills so happily, the price was probably not something to be looked down upon, so she immediately shut her mouth and did not say anything.


    When the Third Wife heard that the First Lady had rejected Xi Jiu Er''s good intentions, he became even more confused. With a turn of his head, he thought of an idea and said: "I didn''t expect First Lady to be a kind mother, a filial daughter-in-law. I originally thought that First Lady was extremely selfish, but now that I think about it, I am wrong. "Since that''s the case, I''ll add another two thousand silver to make it five thousand."


    First Lady did not know what kind of play the person in charge was singing, but he was sure that it was definitely not a good show, and was most likely aimed at him. How could this person change his personality so quickly? Seeing Third Wife sitting on her knees and telling her to be like a concubine, he felt very upset.


    "Old Madame, do you think that''s good?" Third Wife''s action received the praise of the old Madame, her heart was still carrying Xi Jiu Er''s ten thousand taels of silver, as she pretended to look at Xi Jiu Er affectionately: "It''s also my pleasure for Jiu Er to take out ten thousand, so you can take it."


    "..." "Yes." First Lady gritted his teeth and nodded.


    Third Wife continued to speak, "If we gather like this, we might get seventy thousand, so First Lady doesn''t need to take out his own silver and stick it to himself. This Great Miss is about to reach the age of marriage, no matter what, he needs it.


    First Lady immediately let out a warning bell. Indeed, Third Wife and the others did not have any good intentions, so they were planning to take revenge! No, she couldn''t hand over the official accounts, they would be ruined the moment they were handed over.


    "Hmm, you should think about it more carefully. Just do it this way. Everyone else will pay a bit. Then, the rest will be paid from the public accounts!" This was the result Ra denied he was most satisfied with, and she didn''t want to use her coffin.


    "First Lady, just take out the official accounts. How much more can we pay in the public accounts?" This was the ultimate goal of the person taking on the responsibility. Seeing First Lady''s complexion change, he started to feel carefree, and this time, he had to properly suppress First Lady to vent his anger.


    First Lady would not be able to find a reason for him to refuse in a short period of time. If the old Madame agreed, the Master would definitely agree as well. She could only think of a way to move things further. and he said, "Heh heh... How can I use Third Wife''s silver ¡­ "


    "So what? I am originally a member of the Xi Family, how can I stand idly by and watch when something happens to the Xi Family? Besides, the old Madame also agreed to this matter. Why did you decline? Is there a problem with the public accounts? " Third Wife pretended to guess and inquire, immediately causing the old Madame to look over in her direction.


    "What nonsense are you talking about?" First Lady''s face suddenly changed as he shouted.


    "I was just guessing, why would First Lady be angry? Furthermore, I will know whether or not it is because I am spouting nonsense and taking out the official accounts to take a look. " Third Wife smiled and glanced at First Lady provocatively, in his eyes, it was as if he had been poisoned and wished that he could kill Third Wife now.


    Third Wife raised his eyebrows and laughed, as he said carelessly: "Come, come!"


    "You are not suitable, you are just a concubinage!" First Lady had deliberately emphasized the word ''concubinage'', she thought that Third Wife would change his expression, but she suddenly saw Third Wife sneering at her, did she really think that she would still be thinking about the past? She had long accepted the fact that she was this concubine. So what if this concubine turned out to be? Don''t you also have a wife? It was only slightly better than the concubinage.


    "I am a concubinage and cannot accept public debts, so I have nothing to say. But Old Madame should always watch, and the Great Miss of Jiu Er can always watch." The Third Wife scoffed coldly at the old Madame, and said gently, "Old Madame, we can help little Young Master out if something like this happens, but First Lady''s attitude really makes me feel cold ¡­ Is there a problem with the public accounts? "


    The old Madame was also confused, could it really be that there was a problem with the accounts? The old woman also came over from her daughter-in-law step by step. She had seen all sorts of petty tricks up her sleeve, but hadn''t she seen them before? As long as the First Lady was not too excessive. Then she said: "mother of joy, go and get the accounts."


    First Lady''s body shook. Third Wife saw it all! The scene suddenly became much quieter, and even Xi Mao knew that the following events were probably to no benefit to him, so no matter how painful it was, he could still endure it no matter how much it hurt, as his entire face contorted in pain. )))


    Not long after, the mother of joy handed over the accounts to the old Madame. The old Madame flipped through the accounts and almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, then threw the accounts to the First Lady and scolded him, "Alright, you''re very nice. Why is there only this little silver left on the accounts book?


    First Lady trembled as he looked at the account book in front of him and was instantly stunned. This was not the account book that he had modified? He had already placed this account book away secretly, how did the mother of joy find it? Little did you know that Xiu Er had already made Liu Shui change the original account book, your First Lady would do the same.


    Old Madame did not tell him how much silver he had left, it was probably so little that even Old Madame would not take it seriously. Xi Hong Sheng was shocked, he picked up the official accounts and his face turned green: "Bitch!" After saying that, he slapped First Lady hard on the face.


    Third Wife laughed coldly: "Did something really happen? Hehe ¡­ This First Lady is still hiding it from us, if not for this incident, we would all still be in the dark. "


    First Lady suddenly turned around and fiercely muttered to himself. Third Wife fearlessly said, "Why is First Lady looking at me? "Humph!" Third Wife''s aggressiveness caused the First Lady to feel troubled, and now she was certain that it was her Third Wife who had done this, and even Xi Jiu Er had probably participated in it.


    First Lady quickly thought of a way to settle this matter. Now, she had two choices, one was to choose her own child, the other was to choose her own rights, the child must be in her hands, she must have her own ways to take back the rights, thus she said in a deep voice, "mother, it is all the fault of my daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law will do everything she can to return it. "


    Hehe ¡­ First Lady handing over the power in her hands over to the approaching Third Wife made the old Madame a little speechless. She was quite old and she was no longer in charge of the house, so she looked towards Xi Wan Feng ¡­ Xi Wan Feng was the eldest daughter, so she should also learn how to handle matters of the family.

 C114

    "Grandmother, how about this, the things that are in charge of the house will be handled by Third Wife first, so that Grandmother Yan can be her assistant. What do you think?" When the old Madame saw Xi Wan Feng''s expression, she knew what to do. How could she let the plan end in failure?


    The old Madame was still hesitating when Xi Jiu Er continued, "Usually, Madame Yan''s granddaughter looks to be the safest and most reliable so there haven''t been any mistakes in her conduct of things. Father, what do you think?" She placed the decision in Xi Hong Sheng''s hands. Xi Hong Sheng loved Third Wife and Yan Er so he would definitely agree to it.


    Xi Hong Sheng said: "If Jiu Er doesn''t listen to this method, Yan Er will usually do things in the eyes of her son, and will not make any mistakes." In these few months, Old Madame saw Yan Er''s actions and did not agree with it from the bottom of her heart. She then heard Xi Jiu Er suddenly shriek, "Ah, Little Young Master fainted."


    "What?" "Quickly find a doctor ¡­" First Lady''s heart was thumping, to her, how could you possibly be more important than Xi Mao? At least she wouldn''t have a good life.


    The old Madame also shouted in shock, "Forget it, let the Third Wife temporarily take care of this Xi Mansion, the Yan Madame Alliance, everyone has dispersed, today''s matter cannot be told to everyone, if I knew that all of you dog slaves will be sold."


    The servants were all panic-stricken, the Third Wife went back to look at the accounts with his big belly and the support of the servants. Xi Jiu Er did not join in the fun. She believed that the Third Wife was an intelligent woman who knew what to do and how to obtain the most benefits.


    "Hehe, I''m afraid that First Lady''s disease is getting worse this time around." Xi Jiu Er laughed and then brought Liu Shui and Liu Xiang away happily. Behind them, Xi Wan Rong fiercely bit on the meat, she knew that this matter was related to Xi Jiu Er, and was probably the one who planned this dirty plan.


    As expected, First Lady''s body that he had gone through great difficulty to recuperate was now sick ¡­ After going through this matter, Xi Mao had slowly lost his favor and was now taking care of him like a prisoner! First Lady had to prepare some silver for Xi Mao and deal with his weak body at the same time. Now, he coughed every night.


    "Sister, we have to avenge the mother!" Now, whenever Xi Wan Rong mentioned Xi Jiu Er, he would grind his teeth and open his mouth to hate him. It''s just that she was more patient than Xi Wan Rong! Xi Wan Feng pursed his lips: "Perhaps, sometimes the simplest method is often the most effective ¡­"


    "Elder sister, quickly tell me, what is it?" Xi Wan Rong immediately became interested and went over to ask.


    After Xi Wan Feng suffered so much from Xi Jiu Er, she had at least gained some understanding of him, so she said softly, "If we want to get Xi Jiu Er, we need to insert people into her courtyard."


    "This... But I am afraid it will not be so easy for her to live in Liu Xiang''s and her courtyard. " Xi Wan Rong frowned.


    Idiot, if it''s not easy, there will be a way. Xi Wan Feng said softly: "A servant from your courtyard and a servant from Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard are from the same village, why not ¡­."


    Xi Wan Rong did not know why he suddenly said: "This method is good, I already know what to do, big sister, just wait for my good news." Smiling sinisterly, Xi Wan Rong took Si Ping and left.


    Xi Wan Feng stared at Xi Wan Rong''s back with contempt. This brainless woman was not a match for Xi Jiu Er no matter how much she pounced, and he did not know if he would succeed this time, so he might as well take a look first.


    There were a total of eight maids in Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard. One of the maids begged Liu Xiang to bring the servant girl that was with Xi Wan Rong to the courtyard to help Bing''er, saying that the person that Bing''er had been tortured by Xi Wan Rong did not look like a human or a ghost! Being related to Xi Wan Rong, Liu Xiang was not sensitive or suspicious, she just felt that something bad was definitely going to happen.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, then said: "I''m not afraid, we''ll just deal with it when it''s time."


    Liu Xiang felt sympathy for Bing''er, and when she saw the bruises on her body, she was almost convinced. However, Liu Shui said: "Hmph, according to that master''s character, when her own servant ran to the courtyard of the Miss, she should be making a ruckus."


    "Aiya, it really is a trick." Liu Xiang suddenly woke up from her stupor. "Miss said that the abnormality must be a demon."


    "Let''s just wait and see. Maybe there will be another good show." Liu Shui chuckled. He felt that it was rather interesting after watching so many scenes.


    That night, Xi Jiu Er was drawing. Seeing that it looked similar, she pondered on how to find this person. Maybe she could use Mu Qiu Shui''s power to find the person.


    "Miss, the moonlight outside is perfect. Should we go admire the moon?" Liu Shui laughed as she spoke, her simple and honest face carried a sense of mischievousness, and even playfully blinked her eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, then laughed: "Alright, I''ll eat it. Liu Xiang, you just stay behind and tidy up my study ¡­ "


    After the master and servant left the small courtyard, Liu Shui led the way to a concealed location. Liu Shui gave Xi Jiu Er a secret look and heard a woman''s voice and a man''s voice, as though they didn''t need to say anything. There were many such things in the palace, and this Liu Shui actually had such hobbies?


    "Hehe ¡­" Miss Rong only needs to agree with me, as long as we destroy Miss''s innocence, when the time comes, you will give us the indenture contract, and we can both escape together! " It was the woman''s voice.


    "Are you serious, Bing-Er?" The man''s voice sounded very surprised. Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows: Bing''er? Was it Bing''er who was beaten into a corner by Xi Wan Rong?


    Bing-Er said firmly, "Yes! If you don''t give us the indenture contract, we''ll tell the old Madame that all of this is at the behest of the Miss Rong ¡­ "


    Xi Jiu Er sneered. "Heh, what a good plan, did you really think that Xi Wan Rong is that easy to deal with?" Xi Wan Rong was just an ingrate, he could not help but bite hard at her.


    "Let''s go!" Xi Jiu Er let out a cold laugh. On the way back, Xi Jiu Er asked curiously: "Liu Shui, how did you know that this patient called Sick One is in a secret meeting?"


    "Servant saw that she probably did not come with good intentions, so he paid more attention. Tonight, after seeing her sneakily sneak out, he decided to put it in his heart." Liu Xin Dong laughed, but his innocent face looked a bit embarrassed: "I am not as good at taking care of people as Liu Xiang, and also not as capable as ex-sister-in-law, the only thing I know how to do is to take care of people, and eat a lot more ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart felt warm, but she said: "You''re talking nonsense again, you are very capable. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, how can Liu Xiang and ex-sister-in-law have such high skills? You have saved me many times from danger, so don''t be so self-deprecating. "


    "Hehe, Servant is so much happier with these words." Liu Shui chuckled.


    "You, don''t even think about it. If I leave, none of you are allowed to know?" Xi Jiu Er said seriously. She had always felt that losing her was not safe and she was always worried about her personal gains and losses. She did not stay with her for as long as Liu Xiang did, nor did she have much ability compared to ex-sister-in-law. She knew what Liu Shui was thinking, so she tried her best to bring Liu Shui along every time they went out.


    The next day, Bing''er came over hurriedly and said, "Miss Jiu Er, something happened."


    It''s here! Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui looked at each other, before Xi Jiu Er slowly said, "What big matter is not good?" She did not seem to be in a hurry at all. She looked like a tall man who was about to collapse from the sky! Bing-Er was like a little white rabbit, not to mention that she looked so cute, but that was what she was thinking ¡­


    "Sister Liu Xiang fainted ¡­ "Hurry up and go take a look!" Bing-Er''s face was full of anxiety. She was sweating. She didn''t look real at all. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Liu Shui, go take a look."


    "Yes sir!" Liu Shui nodded and just ashe was about to lift his leg and leave, she heard Bing''er saying incoherently: "Miss Jiu Er, you should go personally.


    Xi Jiu Er just wanted to grind them down a bit. She asked curiously: "What did she call me?"


    Bing''er was really anxious in her heart. She had not given Liu Xiang a long time to concoct the medicine, but she was afraid that if she woke up and found out, everything would be ruined. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er didn''t seem to have anything to do with her, she panted, "Sister Liu Xiang is calling me Miss, if you have something to say, say it to Miss ¡­ I really don''t know what kind of Servant he is trying to say. "


    "Is that so? "Alright, then I''ll go with you." Xi Jiu Er nodded and stood up.


    Bing''er saw that Liu Shui was also behind her, and was thinking of ways to push her away. Miss Rong had said that Liu Shui''s martial arts was very high, when that time comes, it would definitely be harmful.


    "Liu Shui, I will go alone. Go find First Lady." Xi Jiu Er could tell what Bing''er was thinking just by the way her eyes were spinning around, so she simply pushed her away.


    The master and servant pair had already known what Liu Shui was going to do for such a long time, so Liu Shui said: "Yes, Servant is going to look for a doctor right now." Then he turned around and left. Bing-Er was relieved, he had finally done.


    Xi Jiu Er followed Bing''er to a concealed place. This place was the place that Bing''er and the strange man had stolen the night before. Xi Jiu Er did not furrow her brows and asked, "What''s going on, why is Liu Xiang in this place?"


    "Servant isn''t very clear either." Bing-Er shook her head.


    The rock was huge, and what Xi Jiu Er had just spared the rock was the fragrance of. She immediately cried out in her heart, held her breath, and tilted her body, falling down. "You, you ¡­" Then she closed her eyes and fainted.


    "Strange, why is the medicinal effect so fast?" When Xi Jiu Er heard Bing''er''s questioning voice, she said, "Come out, he''s already passed out."


    "Hehe ¡­" "It''s here ¡­" This voice was the same voice that Xi Jiu Er had heard from Bing''er last night. He chuckled and did not finish her sentence, but when Xi Jiu Er sneaked a glance over, she saw a man dressed in a servant''s robe hugging and kissing Bing''er, causing her heart to want to puke. Extremely disgusting...

 C115

    "Bing-er, are you sure this person is Miss Jiu Er? Everyone says that Miss Jiu Er is cunning and must not be fooled by her." The man said after kissing her.


    "Don''t worry, there''s no doubt that he is Miss Jiu Er. I dare to guarantee it." Bing-Er said with certainty, "Alright, let''s stop talking. Get ready, the Miss Rong will be with us soon."


    Xi Jiu Er felt herself being lifted up by two people, and the servant explained to her: "I''ll leave this to you, I''ll go and report to the Miss Rong right now." As she spoke, she left.


    Taking advantage of the time when the two of them were talking, Xi Jiu Er took a look around. Suddenly, he saw a man dressed in dirty clothes lying beside him, the man also seemed to be in a coma and was sleeping soundly. Xi Jiu Er immediately understood what Xi Wan Rong meant. Bing''er''s voice trembled a little: "Miss Jiu Er... You can only blame the Miss Rong, it was not her fault for all this, it was also because she was threatened by the Miss Rong that you had no choice ¡­ "


    Xi Jiu Er felt something pressing against her lips, but she did not open her mouth. With a pfft sound, her body became heavy, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that Bing''er was unconscious on her body. She pushed Bing''er away and saw that she was holding a black pill in her hand. She took it and smelled it and knew it was some kind of sex charm pill.


    "Miss, take a look at what is in your hand?" Liu Shui laughed out loud. Xi Jiu Er looked at his hand and saw that she was holding onto a person. Xi Mao!


    Liu Shui chuckled, Xi Jiu Er squinted her eyes and suddenly felt that this method was really not bad! Hehe ¡­ Liu Shui, has anyone ever said that you are very fast ¡­ " Xi Jiu Er laughed and said.


    "No, they all said that Servant was a kind person." Liu Shui laughed.


    Xi Jiu Er put the pill into Bing''er''s mouth and smiled at her. "Let''s go, we can only watch a good show with the rest of you."


    When Xi Wan Rong heard the servant''s report that it was a success, an unprecedented emotion flooded his mind. God help me, Xi Jiu Er, you actually came today? Chief, how smart are you, or are you in my hands? His eyes revealed a vicious smile as he ordered the servant Si Ping: "Come, let''s go to where the old Madame is."


    The old Madame was praising the Third Wife for taking care of the mansion in such a neat and orderly manner, when she saw Xi Wan Rong coming in smiling, and her expression became colder: "Why are you here?" She didn''t like this granddaughter of hers as much as before!


    Xi Wan Rong sucked in a cold breath. She thought about how doted on by the Old Madame before, and how now the Old Madame''s attitude towards her was completely different. She couldn''t accept it, the Old Madame should have doted on her. However, there was no need to worry, she would quickly recover her pampered self, because Xi Jiu Er was about to fall. As long as Xi Jiu Er, this unsightly bitch, left, she could live her old life and mother would no longer have to get sick.


    "My granddaughter missed Grandmother and specifically came to visit him." With that, she took the pastries from the maid''s hands and carried it to the old Madame. She smiled sweetly: "Grandmother, this is made by my granddaughter.


    When the old Madame saw that Xi Wan Rong had made his favorite cake for him, his face eased up a little and he said after taking a bite: "The taste is not good."


    "Your granddaughter will definitely improve on this!" Xi Wan Rong laughed, as though he had just seen Third Wife, and chuckled: "Third Wife''s complexion is getting better."


    Third Wife was confused, did this Xi Wan Rong eat the wrong medicine today? His whole body was smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, She gave Xi Wan Rong a faint nod of her head as a form of greeting.


    "Old Madame, a servant came to report outside and said that she has something important to tell Old Madame." The gatekeeping maid said slowly.


    The Third Wife was suspicious, she had a little knowledge of what happened in the house, what big matter could it be? He unconsciously associated it with Xi Wan Rong, and sure enough, Xi Wan Rong''s eyes were filled with excitement.


    "Send someone in." The old Madame said in a low voice.


    A servant who was dressed like a servant stumbled over and kneeled down. It was Bing''er! His face was pale as if he had seen a ghost. Old Madame asked curiously, "Tell me what''s the big deal."


    The manservant said with a trembling voice, "This servant ¡­" As the servant passed through the north gate, he saw something emitting from behind a stone ¡­ He let out a strange sound, and upon hearing it more carefully, it was actually from Miss Jiu Er ¡­ She was with a man... This servant thought that this was a big matter, so I came to tell the Third Wife, but when I heard that the Third Wife was with Old Madame, I came to tell him that it was Old Madame. "


    "Oh?" The old Madame''s expression changed slightly. In this Xi Mansion, the only one with a good reputation was Xi Jiu Er, and she immediately said: "Have you told this to anyone else?"


    "Never." The attendant shook his head.


    "What, I never thought that little sister Jiu Er would normally look dignified and knowledgeable, I never thought that you would actually ¡­ "She''s actually with a man ¡­" Xi Wan Rong found it hard to keep her mouth shut. Looking at the old Madame''s dark face, she was extremely happy in her heart.


    "Things haven''t been investigated clearly yet, but how did Miss Rong determine that the woman was Jiu Er?" The Third Wife said indifferently.


    Xi Wan Rong wanted to say something but he stopped himself. He smirked and said: "I was just guessing."


    "Since it''s Miss Rong''s guess, then don''t spout nonsense, so as to not ruin Miss''s reputation." Third Wife said unhappily. The old Madame also agreed as she glared at Xi Wan Rong fiercely.


    Xi Wan Rong secretly ridiculed him, was it? Then you all can just wait and see, see how Xi Jiu Er puts on the ''Dang'' HAI, she is already impatient. Thus, the old Madame sealed off the news and brought mother of joy to the north gate mentioned by the servant. Two large rocks were placed at the north gate, and the sound of wuwu came from behind them.


    The old Madame''s entire face turned green, and she immediately ordered mother of joy to bring her wives over. Her brows slightly furrowed, when she suddenly heard the mother of joy cry out in shock: "Little Young Master, why are you here?"


    The ''little Young Master'' everyone mentioned referred to Xi Mao, while Xi Rui called for Rui Young Master. When everyone heard mother of joy call him "little Young Master", their expressions changed. mother of joy brought out a ten-year-old Xi Mao with him, while Xi Mao''s breathing hastened, making them feel at ease because his clothes were tidy.


    Old Madame pulled him into his embrace and shouted at the servants, "Quick, go get the Soulwake Soup!" There was an order for the mother of joy to hand Xi Mao over to the First Lady!


    Xi Wan Rong''s body swayed and he almost fainted. Why did things become like this? Why did my brother appear behind the rock? That''s right, he must have gone over to take a look since he was curious ¡­ That must be it. Xi Wan Rong had a bad premonition lingering in his mind!


    The person that was dragged out was a dirty man. The old Madame shouted, "Who are you?


    The man who looked like a beggar was scared to the point of trembling. He said, "I-I''m Li Ma. I-I don''t know why I would appear here ¡­" I, I don''t know! "


    How could the old Madame let her off that easily? She immediately scolded, "You filthy man, come and beat him to death and throw him into the unmarked cemetery."


    The man called pockmarked Li''s face changed. The quick-witted old lady immediately stuffed the kernels in her hands into his mouth, blocking his mouth tightly and then dragged him away.


    This time, he dragged out another girl. This woman''s clothes were not Xi Jiu Er''s, but she was wearing a servant girl''s clothes. Third Wife heaved a sigh of relief, and Old Madame too, heaved a sigh of relief. How could this be! This person must be Xi Jiu Er, it must be ¡­ She comforted herself.


    "Turn her around!" The old Madame said one word at a time.


    The old granny flipped the woman over, and Third Wife, upon seeing that it was not Xi Jiu Er, said: "I think that young servant heard wrong, not Miss Jiu Er. The Miss was elegant and well-mannered, how could he do such a thing? "


    The old Madame nodded her head: "She has a cold personality, she would definitely not do such a thing, someone must have slandered her." As she spoke, she looked at Xi Wan Rong, who gave a forced smile in agreement, "That''s right, there must be someone slandering Little Sister Jiu Er."


    "The old Madame is dead." An old woman said.


    "Throw this lowly slave into the unmarked cemetery!" The old Madame said in disgust and turned to leave. Third Wife looked at Xi Wan Rong deeply and laughed: "It''s really strange, why did Miss Jiu Er have to be here to become a servant? If I remember correctly, this servant girl is from your old courtyard. "


    Xi Wan Rong really wanted to push this girl down to the ground. This way she could very possibly die! When Xi Wan Rong thought about it this way, the Mother Fang next to her became more cautious. She immediately flung Xi Wan Rong away and shouted, "Miss Rong, what are you trying to do?"


    Xi Wan Rong had already lost his mind! He only had one thought, kill this woman, she would work with Xi Jiu Er, and as long as he could kill her, he would not be able to help Xi Jiu Er. It must be the Third Wife leaking information ¡­


    "What do you want? Naturally, it''s to take your life." Then, he fiercely pushed Si Ping who was at the side, who pounced on him ¡­


    As First Lady was drinking the medicine, he frowned, "First Lady, this old servant sees that all of these doctors are ordinary, do you want to change a doctor?"


    First Lady shook his head: "No need, I know my body very well, after so many years, I''m afraid I''m about to collapse." She''s only in her thirties ¡­ Why does it feel like I''m about to die?


    "Where''s the Madame ¡­" immediately went to take a look. When he arrived at the door, he saw mother of joy coming in while holding Xi Mao who had a strange expression on his face. First Lady immediately sat up and anxiously asked: "What happened? What happened to Mao? "


    mother of joy placed Xi Mao on the bed, and said. "Little Young Master must have seen something unclean ¡­ "This is ¡­"


    "Something unclean? What is that thing? " The First Lady asked angrily. She did not care if the mother of joy was a popular person around the Old Madame anymore, she only knew that if the child was harmed ¡­ I''m afraid ¡­


    "It''s like this. Young Master just happened to stumble upon a maid and a beggar outside the north gate, which was why such a thing happened. He already ordered some people to go and boil the Divine Awakening Pill." When the mother of joy told her the whole story, she also observed the First Lady''s expression. Seeing her shocked face, she thought to herself, was she the one who did this?

 C116

    "What!" First Lady was startled and angry, seeing that Xi Mao''s face had an abnormal red color, his entire body became unwell, he was immediately served by the Wang Ma, and before he could even catch his breath, the servant girl had already reported that the Third Wife was born prematurely.


    "Preterm birth? When I came to the Third Wife, she was still fine, so why did she become prematurely? " mother of joy immediately stood up and left after saluting. She felt like her head was about to explode, she asked the servant: "What exactly happened?"


    "It''s the Miss Rong''s servant, Si Ping ¡­" accidentally pushed the Third Wife... Third Wife was born prematurely, so we went to find a doctor. " The servant girl also did not know what she said, but she said: "First Lady, quickly go take a look, Miss Rong will definitely bring First Lady there."


    Being called over by a daughter like Xi Wan Rong in such a hurry wouldn''t be easy, could it be that she was the one who caused him to be born prematurely? First Lady felt pain and dizziness on the one hand, and said: "First Lady, quickly go and take a look at Miss Rong. There is this old servant watching here, I won''t let anything happen to little Young Master."


    "Thank you, Wang Ma." First Lady tidied up her dress and quickly drank a few mouthfuls of cold tea before feeling better. She followed the servant to Third Wife''s courtyard.


    "mother!" When Xi Wan Rong saw First Lady, he rushed forward as if he saw his savior, shivering all over. Third Wife was doted upon by Xi Hong Sheng, and took a fancy to the one in her womb. After what had happened, she pushed the blame all the matters to Si Ping in a flash, and didn''t dare imagine what would happen if Xi Hong Sheng and the old Madame found out that it was her doing it.


    First Lady pinched Xi Wan Rong''s hand with all his might and said softly, "At that time, it would be Si Ping who will bite me to death, do you know that?"


    Xi Wan Rong nodded his head: "mother, daughter understands."


    Si Ping, who was kneeling on the ground, had a swollen face. When Xi Jiu Er came over, he saw her lying on the ground in despair, as if she didn''t have a trace of life in her. This was the result of following Xi Wan Rong. What did more than ten years of master and servant love count for? Didn''t she use it as a shield?


    How did Xi Jiu Er come to Third Wife''s courtyard after hearing the news? Fortunately, the midwives had already prepared everything properly, otherwise, everything would have been in a mess. Everyone said that Si Ping accidentally gave Third Wife a push, and just by looking at him, Xi Wan Rong knew who the culprit was.


    Xi Hong Sheng was very nervous. Seeing her disappointed look, the old Madame scolded: "It''s my first time again, who are you showing this to?"


    Xi Hong Sheng unnaturally laughed and paced back and forth. When he saw First Lady, he looked at him coldly, and that gaze made Xi Wan Rong a little scared, while First Lady comforted Xi Wan Rong, and had no choice but to pray that Third Wife could successfully give birth, otherwise, his precious daughter would definitely suffer.


    Third Wife''s voice came out from the maternity ward. had spent most of his time there, so he could be at ease with his family''s income. After about four hours of waiting, they finally heard the first cry of the baby.


    "It''s been born ¡­" "It was born ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng said happily.


    Everyone revealed a smile, but no one knew what was hidden behind the smile, such as First Lady''s forced smile, Xi Wan Rong''s relieved smile, the old Madame''s happy smile, and so on. After a while, the midwives came over, smiling while begging for red packets, saying it was a fat and cute little Young Master.


    "Aiyo, you didn''t see Master and Old Madame, that little Young Master is the prettiest, cutest child I''ve ever seen ¡­" The midwife also said some auspicious words. It was very enjoyable as she was also given quite a good red packet. Xi Jiu Er was the thick-skinned one, and the old midwife was even more so serving him with all her might. When the Third Wife was no longer in danger, there would be no more for her.


    After the delivery room was cleaned up, the old Madame and Xi Hong Sheng went to look at the children. Not long later, they heard their laughter from inside the room. Xi Jiu Er walked over to Si Ping and said indifferently, "It''s a good thing that both Third Wife and little Young Master are safe and sound. If there''s even the slightest bit of difference, you should just wait for someone to beat them to death."


    Si Ping had originally thought that she was dead for sure. At that time, the Third Wife lost so much blood that it looked extremely scary. She didn''t even have to think to know that there was no chance for him to live. She was sure that she would die without a burial ground, and now that the Third Wife was fine, and the little Young Master was safe and sound, she saw hope once again ¡­ Everyone wanted to live, and it was said that it was better to die than to live.


    "Miss Jiu Er, I beg you, please save this Servant. Save this Servant ¡­" Si Ping knew that Xi Jiu Er was capable, otherwise how could he not be her opponent? If Xi Jiu Er could save him, he would definitely be able to live.


    "Aiya, what are you doing? How did you manage to get a request from my Miss? should be asking for Miss Rong''s help. " Liu Xiang was unsatisfied with Si Ping''s daily actions, but she sympathized with Si Ping, so to have such a master was her pity.


    "Miss Rong ¡­" Si Ping looked at Xi Wan Rong who was frowning at the side, and suddenly felt a wave of disgust. This woman was extremely beautiful, but her heart was black. Right now, Xi Wan Rong could no longer count on him to survive.


    "Miss Jiu Er, please be merciful and save my life. Servant will kowtow to you." Knock, knock, knock. Si Ping knocked hard and in a few breaths, his forehead was already rotten.


    First Lady stepped forward and kicked Si Ping, then scolded: "You dog slave actually wants to murder the lord of this house, someone come ¡­."


    "Wait." Xi Jiu Er stopped him: "mother, Third Wife just gave birth to a little brother. You are going to take action now to deal with your subordinate, are you going to clash with something?" The First Lady wanted to punish Si Ping so quickly, and was prepared to die without a witness. However, Xi Jiu Er stopped him, and his expression turned ugly: "What are you doing, what does the mother want to do with you, get out of my way."


    "Is that so? Liu Xiang, go tell Father and Old Madame that Third Wife has just escaped from the gates of hell and given birth to Little Young Master. Xi Jiu Er instructed Liu Xiang, who nodded and entered the house.


    "You!" First Lady''s head hurt, if this plan fails, we can try another one. Hmph, she would eventually think of a way to deal with Si Ping the maid.


    Liu Xiang came out very quickly and said indifferently: "Old Madame has sent word to drag Si Ping out randomly and beat her to death. She has locked Miss Rong in her courtyard and forbids her from entering.


    "Grandmother!" Xi Wan Rong''s face changed. Restricted leg, she did not want it.


    "Nonsense!" First Lady knew that the old Madame had let Xi Wan Rong off this once, and immediately planned to drag her back. However, Si Ping shouted loudly at this time: "Old Madame, it wasn''t Servant who pushed the Third Wife, it wasn''t Servant who pushed the Third Wife, it was Miss Rong who pushed the Third Wife, it was her ¡­ Servant was wrongly accused ¡­ "


    Si Ping''s voice was very loud. The mother of joy came out and said, "What are you all still standing around for? Hurry up and tie this little hoof down."


    Si Ping gave in to despair and softly said: "What a pitiful thing to see. No matter what, he is still a master and servant, yet he doesn''t plead for mercy. He''s really heartless. Elder Sister Rong, Si Ping has told you for less than ten years, are you really that heartless? "


    Ten years ¡­ What was ten years compared to punishment? Xi Wan Rong and the mother were the same.


    "I want to beg for forgiveness, but Grandmother has already spoken. What should I do?" Xi Wan Rong saw that the way she looked at him had changed, she had scolded Xi Jiu Er in her heart, and Si Ping was not her servant, so why fight against him? Only the First Lady knew that Xi Jiu Er''s goal was to let the servants see the heartless side of her daughter.


    "Jiu Er, you and Third Wife have always been on good terms, and this lowly bitch has hurt Third Wife, and at that time you will help her?" First Lady is truly worthy of being called First Lady, the ability to reverse the flow of black and white was first-rate. Xi Wan Rong nodded and said, "I think so."


    At a glance, it was obvious that the mother and daughter pair were definitely their own.


    Xi Jiu Er did not care about the looks of outsiders, and directed them to sneer in disdain: "Even mother doesn''t need to be afraid of her tongue flashing when she speaks, how many people do you think would believe such words? Didn''t you just say that I have a good relationship with the Third Wife? Why would I do such a thing? Or do you think that I can easily buy a servant like Si Ping? "


    "Who knows? "Everyone says that you don''t know your own face ¡­" The First Lady sneered.


    "What are you all talking about?" The old Madame said with a dark face: "The matter has already been made clear, this person was not pushed by Si Ping, it was made by the little girl by ''carelessness'' ¡­"


    Third Wife was intelligent, she was the oldest one when she had just given birth to a child, who could do anything to her no matter what she said? At least for now, he couldn''t do anything to her! The old Madame emphasized the two words'' accidentally ''. Presumably, she knew it as clear as a mirror.


    Si Ping heaved a sigh of relief, the old Madame said unhappily: "This slut has inadvertently caused my master to be so ''careless'', she can''t be allowed to live. Men, find the dental granny and sell her."


    Si Ping had thought that she had seen hope for life, and had never thought that she would be sold out in the next moment.


    "Don''t ¡ª don''t ¡­" He allowed Si Ping to do as she pleased, and it was unknown where the few women who tied her had brought her to. Hearing Si Ping''s miserable voice, the servants present felt a chill in their hearts. They did not expect that after serving the Miss Rong for so many years, Si Ping did not even plead for mercy after Master ended up like this. This heart was simply too ruthless.


    Xi Wan Rong was already being led away by the First Lady. The First Lady understood the Old Madame, if he let Xi Wan Rong stay any longer, the Old Madame might change her mind.

 C117

    The more grandsons she had, the less likely it was that the Madame would look after those grandsons that she did not like due to their anger. For example, she hated Xi Wan Rong a lot when she saw him. Amongst the descendants of the Xi Family, there were only two sons of Xi Rui and Xi Mao.


    Xi Mao''s arrogant aura of being raised by the First Lady was too severe. He already had the bearing of a popinjay, what would happen in the future when he grew up? In the end, it was only seen when the child was older that the old Madame did not care too much about it.


    However, the woman was different, her words and actions represented the Xi Family. Xi Wan Rong stared at her title as the number one beauty acting so recklessly, making the old Madame unhappy. After all, year after year, some things still had to be changed. Taking this opportunity, the old Madame scolded Xi Hong Sheng properly, "Look at how sensible Jiu Er is now, and look at your daughter raised by a wife, the older she is, the more obedient she becomes. There are no rules and no rules, listen to what is passed down outside, say that our Xi Family doesn''t know how to raise a daughter, do you think I, as an old granny, can''t afford to lose this person?


    "mother is right." Xi Hong Sheng lowered his head and listened to the training seriously.


    "When we send her into the palace, the Mubai will just wait for the right time, but you have to bring out a Miss like that, you can just tell us whether she''s a horse or a mule when she sneaks out. Our Xi Family has bet all our wealth on her, don''t tell me she wants to destroy our Xi Family? " The old Madame gulped her saliva and said, "There''s also Feng''er. This girl seems to be the most stable among all the children. "Sigh, I don''t think this time''s restriction is enough."


    The more Xi Hong Sheng thought about it, the more he felt that he had neglected Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng because of official business, causing them to become his responsibility that he could not shirk. Thinking about his great responsibility, he felt that he could not let these two children continue to live as they pleased. His face immediately became gloomy: "mother, what do you think we should do?"


    "Rong Er is used to living in luxury since she was young. She has never experienced any hardships, so in order to temper sher personality, let''s just let her go to the Manor for a few more months." Old Madame thought for a while and felt that this was a way out, "Look at Jiu Er, he has changed into someone else since she returned from the villa, so there''s no need for anyone to worry about him at all."


    Without the words of the old Madame, Xi Hong Sheng would probably still hesitate for a bit, but after thinking deeply about it, he nodded: "mother is right, son will go and take care of this matter right now."


    "Go." The old Madame said indifferently.


    mother of joy beamed: Old Madame, you have never seen the safe youth, but this old servant has never seen such a sturdy little Young Master, she is so beautiful, I am sure that I will be able to do something big in the future.


    Speaking of this son of the Third Wife, Xi Ping old Madame, smiled sincerely. "Yes, this is the first time in my life that I have seen such a cute child.


    The old Madame was gradually falling asleep as she served the old Madame. Not long after the First Lady taught Xi Wan Rong a lesson, Xi Hong Sheng arrived. Just as the First Lady had said, "Do you think your father is a fool? Can''t she see who did it? He just doesn''t want to pursue the matter with you. After all, you are his daughter. "


    Xi Hong Sheng had an unfriendly expression on his face, causing the First Lady to immediately laugh: "Congratulations Master! Third Wife has given birth to a Young Master, truly a cause for celebration!


    "I won''t hold you accountable for your expression today. From today onwards, you can stay in the villa and rest up properly to change your irritable temperament. You are my, Xi Hong Sheng''s, direct daughter, and are not a bystander."


    "Master ¡­" First Lady was shocked and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xi Hong Sheng: "Shut your mouth right now, look at how your two daughters look like? If you say any more, let her stay until the new year and come back. "


    First Lady''s lips moved but she did not dare say anything else, afraid that if she angered Xi Hong Sheng, she would do as she said. Xi Wan Rong had already recovered from his shock and exclaimed, "Father wants Rong Er to go to the Manor? Don''t, Rong Er wouldn''t go even if she was beaten to death. "


    "It''s not up to you whether you go or not!" was furious, the First Lady had noticed that her husband was already at the edge of his rage, but Xi Wan Rong still did not realise it, and said: "Father, I''m your daughter, why did you want me to go to the villa? This matter is related to Xi Jiu Er, Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er are on the same side, they colluded together to plot against our daughter, how come you did not notice?"


    "What did you say?" Xi Hong Sheng clenched his teeth and replied.


    First Lady suddenly had a bad feeling and shouted, "Rong Er, shut up. Hurry up and apologize to your father."


    "Apologize? What''s wrong with me? You all simply do not know what kind of person Xi Jiu Er is. She is selfishness, viciousness, and good at disguising herself. Father, you and Grandmother have already been deceived by her! "


    "Shut up!" Xi Hong Sheng slapped him across the face and scolded him, "How did I, Xi Hong Sheng, give birth to such a thing? What evil deeds did I do in my previous life to give birth to such a vile thing like you?"


    Xi Wan Rong was beaten to the point that his ears rumbled. In a short while, she did not hear what Xi Hong Sheng had said at all. Xi Hong Sheng still intended to give her another slap. First Lady immediately stepped forward to hold Xi Hong Sheng''s hand and cried: "Master, Rong Er already knows her wrongs, you should forgive her.


    "Scram." Xi Hong Sheng flung First Lady''s hands away fiercely. "Look at the good daughter that you raised, if I don''t break her mouth today, I wouldn''t be her father."


    With the last sentence, it could be seen that Xi Hong Sheng was determined to beat Xi Wan Rong up. Xi Wan Rong no longer had the arrogance he had previously, and regretted going against Xi Hong Sheng so quickly.


    First Lady cried: "Master, it is my fault, I did not educate Rong Er well. Please give me a chance, I will definitely educate Rong Er well."


    "Good, good, good. This is what you said." Xi Hong Sheng slowly lowered his hand, stared at Xi Wan Rong, and said: "If you dare do this again, I''ll expel you out of the Xi Family, and give you a punishment for being unfilial and unfilial."


    Xi Wan Rong was sent to the manor. First Lady served a servant girl called Zhu Er by his side, and the two of them sat in the carriage and went back into the manor. Along the way, Xi Wan Rong was extremely panic-stricken, afraid that it would be very difficult for her to return once she left. Without the protection of the First Lady, she was even more afraid of Xi Jiu Er.


    No, she had to find a way to return earlier! It had only been walking for half a day and he already started to have a fever. Zhu Er took the opportunity to say: "Oh no, Miss Rong has a fever.

 C118

    The old man continued driving the carriage: "I am not the one who is going to ask about this, my mission is to send Miss Rong to the manor, if there is anyone who wants to go back, I am afraid that the old Madame will scold me, I do not want to take such a risk." Before Xi Jiu Er left, she got Liu Xiang to give her a hundred silver. It was more or less to say that no matter what tricks Xi Wan Rong played, he would just ignore them and just send them to the manor.


    Zhu Er''s Qi was congealed, she could only get some water from the water bottle to wet her forehead, and after about two hours, Xi Wan Rong''s fever was gone, so Zhu Er was able to relax. Lifting up the curtain to look at the increasingly remote place, she felt a tinge of disgust in her heart. She should have eaten and drank in the Xi Mansion, why did she run all the way to this remote place and suffer together with Xi Wan Rong? She didn''t know when she would be able to return either, but she gouged out Xi Wan Rong with her eyes, all because of her.


    When night finally arrived, Xi Wan Rong woke up in a daze. She looked around at the surroundings and shook her head sinisterly. She had to go back, she didn''t want to stay in this kind of place. Oh yeah, I can write to Big Sister Feng, Big Sister Feng will definitely think of a way to bring her back.


    "Hello, Miss Rong. This servant is the manager here named You Wen Cai. This is my wife, Sun ¡­" A middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks laughed as he came over to salute me.


    This was the number one beauty, how could they be able to see a real person? Not only that, when You Wen Cai saw that the body of such an exceptional beauty like Xi Wan Rong had a change, all he could think of was a bunch of random things. Xi Wan Rong knew what he was thinking the moment he saw the look in his eyes, and said in disgust: "Where are you looking with your dog eyes?"


    You Wen Cai immediately retracted his gaze to apologize, but when Sun saw that his husband''s eyes were filled with rouge, he felt extremely disgusted. He thought to himself, what if the most beautiful woman is that kind of person?


    "Old Madame said to let Miss stay in the villa for a while before returning." With the coachman''s orders, Sun let the coachman go down. He then personally brought Xi Wan Rong to his room, since he did not have the time to prepare it in a hurry. Xi Wan Rong almost jumped up from his deep thoughts when he saw the scene in the room. The Sun immediately said, "Miss, wait for a moment, I will go and clean up right now!"


    "Miss, I have no other choice but to give it a try. I''ll just wait a few days before returning to my residence." Zhu Er was afraid that Xi Wan Rong would lose his temper, and then, he would also be affected too. She was tired after driving for an entire day and wanted to rest as soon as possible.


    Xi Wan Rong pouted and said to Sun: "I don''t care, I want the best thing!"


    "Yes, yes, yes. Servant will go and get the best." Sun scolded Xi Wan Rong eight hundred times in his heart. He was extremely furious! Gritting her teeth, she went all the way to get the best things. What was the best thing? She wasn''t willing to give it to her.


    "What the hell is this? I don''t need this!" Xi Wan Rong scolded: "I want the best."


    Sun''s face did not look good. Pui, we are already at the manor and he still wants to stay? Stop daydreaming. If you don''t check your status now, you might end up living in the manor for the rest of your life, you little slut! Sun said with a bitter face: "Aiyo, my Miss, it''s not that Servant didn''t give it to you, it''s just that Servant doesn''t have anything good here. These are all the best."


    Xi Wan Rong stared at her, and seeing that Sun did not seem to be lying, he did not know what to say. Sun carried a blanket in her hands as she looked at the bedding of the servant. She had lived a luxurious life since she was young, how was she supposed to live in a place like this? His face was as black as the bottom of a pot.


    Zhu Er hugged his blanket and said: "You may leave, I will serve you here."


    Zhu Er was a servant and Sun was a servant. Seeing Zhu Er''s tone, it was as if she was telling someone to do something, causing Sun to be unhappy, but she could not say anything else. OK... Servant announced and left. "


    Once the Sun left, Xi Wan Rong flew into a rage, "I don''t want to live in this place." Zhu Er pretended not to hear, he was still covered by the blanket, Zhu Er understood what was going on, Sun said that there were no more good things, maybe he had kept all the good things! How could servants like them not know the truth?


    Xi Wan Rong flew into a rage, realizing that Zhu Er was not paying attention to him at all, he decided to send Zhu Er her temper. Zhu Er frowned: "Miss, after rushing for an entire day, you should just rest early. After this matter is over, First Lady will definitely think of a way to get Miss out of the villa.


    "It''s not my turn to be taught a lesson by a maid like you." Xi Wan Rong yelled as he lowered his head and said, "Servant does not dare. First Lady has asked Servant to serve you because I want you to bear with me and try your best to get out of here as soon as possible."


    This Zhu Er was still a servant of the mother after all, and since he had her take care of him, her life in the future would not be as important as hers. Zhu Er heaved a sigh of relief and helped Xi Wan Rong wash up. Xi Wan Rong''s face turned dark again, she said that the water had a strange taste. Zhu Er only said: "The manor is not like the manor, it is normal to have these things."


    After going to sleep, Xi Wan Rong tossed and turned, sleeping extremely uncomfortably, and his face darkened along with it. Did the Miss really think that he was still in his residence? But things were different now. Who knew how long the mansion had to wait. If anything happened to the child in Third Wife''s womb, the time he would need to return would probably be extended ¡­ Zhu Er was distracted.


    Xi Wan Rong told her servant Si Ping to take the blame, this method was really poisonous. Zhu Er felt that Xi Wan Rong was a vicious master in his heart. For Xi Wan Rong, who was serving her at her age, it was fine for Xi Wan Rong to not treat her well. When Zhu Er was unworthy of Si Ping, it was also pitiful. Sigh ¡­ She wished that she could break away from her slave and get married off as soon as possible.


    The next morning, Xi Wan Rong was woken up by the sound of chickens and ducks outside. In her heart, Zhu Er immediately knew that this must be the Sun''s attention. But when Xi Wan Rong heard the sound of the chickens and ducks, he guessed that it came from the backyard.


    Zhu Er''s guess was right, Sun did it on purpose. Last night, when Xi Wan Rong vented her anger at him, she was unhappy. This Sun''s heart was twisted, she could not bear to see others live a better life than her. Since he was forced to marry You Wen Cai, the man You Wen Cai was extremely perverted. As long as it was a beautiful woman, she would be able to stare at him.


    If it wasn''t for her overbearing personality, she probably wouldn''t have had another day to live! Which woman in this manor had not been played by him before? Thinking about the two more women that came, Xi Wan Rong didn''t dare to touch them. That servant girl of hers was born with a pretty face, and her husband couldn''t sleep last night.


    Sun became angry as soon as he thought about it. He chased the ducks and chickens into the backyard early in the morning and even intentionally caused quite a bit of noise, just so that these two bitches wouldn''t be able to sleep.


    Xi Wan Rong was furious, but in his heart, Zhu Er was as calm as a mirror. He could only say: "Miss, this is how life in the village is, get used to it!" Zhu Er helped Xi Wan Rong wash up, and then someone came and brought him food for breakfast.


    "Is this for pigs?" Xi Wan Rong stared at the plate of pickled vegetables and the bowl of light white rice porridge and could not help but scream, "I am the direct daughter of the Xi Mansion, to actually let me eat pig food, what logic is this, call that Sun over here."


    Sun pursed his lips, what direct daughter, after arriving at the manor he still didn''t know his own situation? She was eating her melon seeds leisurely, and when she felt that she was on fire, she stood up to go find Xi Wan Rong. From afar, she shouted loudly: "Hey, hey, what''s going on? What happened to Miss Rong? Any orders? "


    "Look at what this is. Is it for pigs to eat?" Xi Wan Rong pointed to the food on the table and scolded: "I am direct daughter, and yet you neglect me like this. When I return home, I will complain to mother and see if you all can''t take it."


    "My Miss Rong, this has always been the way the manor eats ¡­" How about I get someone to make whatever Miss wants to eat? " Sun lowered his head and replied in a pleasing manner. In his heart, he thought, "The manor is only slightly better than the village. You can''t even tell me what food there is, do you want me to give it to you?" Besides, this place was far from the town, so it would take a few hours to go back and forth.


    Xi Wan Rong quickly told Sun what he was about to eat. After hearing it, Sun only said, "Miss, other than Mu Er, there is nothing else that you have mentioned. It''s like this in the manor, even if Servant wanted to get something for Miss, there is nothing else."


    "If you don''t, then go buy." Xi Wan Rong shouted in anger.


    Sun hid the disdain in his eyes and said indifferently: "Miss, it will take about two hours to go back and forth from here to town. This town is only as big as a street ¡­." After all, there was no one thing you wanted to eat!


    Even a blind person would be able to tell that the Sun was trying to flirt with him. She walked over to him and gave him a slap, "Bitch, I''m the Miss, you''re just a dog raised by the Xi Family, how dare you trick me like this! If I don''t teach you a lesson today, you won''t know the difference between high and low!"

 C119

    Xi Wan Rong went to the manor, and First Lady found it hard to suppress her grief. Her daughter, her precious daughter had never been at a disadvantage before, but now, she had actually gone to live in the manor! Thinking about how her daughter that she had always cherished and protected under her palms, because of these two wretched women, Xi Jiu Er and Third Wife, her teeth couldn''t help but tremble.


    "Wang Ma, what do you think I should do? What should I do? " First Lady couldn''t think of a way to take care of Xi Jiu Er and the rest so he asked Wang Ma quietly. Wang Ma thought for a moment, "Madame, this old servant thinks that we should start from Yan Er."


    "Oh? "What do you mean?" The person who answered was puzzled.


    Wang Ma explained in detail to First Lady: "Look, Madame, a large portion of the Third Wife is willing to be pampered right now because Yan Er is here. As long as we think of a way to get rid of Yan Er, Third Wife won''t have any way to win over Master for a while, so we can''t stay in the same room for three months of production.


    The First Lady frowned slightly. Then he said: "I''m afraid that Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er have already been bound together. Yan Er is the weakest amongst them. Now that Third Wife has two children and has to take care of Xi Mansion, why don''t we take this opportunity to fish in troubled waters? Firstly, he could beat up the Third Wife, and secondly, she could take back all the authority she had gained ¡­ When it''s necessary, the First Lady will come back to play some tricks. If she doesn''t succeed, then we will bring out the matter of the old Madame! "


    Speaking of which, her eyes lit up, how could she have forgotten the trump card that the Old Madame had? After ten years of hard work, she drugged the old Madame''s meals bit by bit every day. With so many things accumulated, they just needed to wait for an opportunity. At that time, the old Madame would just die, looking like she had died from illness, no one could figure it out!


    "I don''t want to take this move if I have to." First Lady frowned.


    The Wang Ma said: "This old servant thinks that as long as Third Wife is overturned, this Xi Family will be your daughter, no matter how powerful Xi Jiu Er is. You are her mother, so it is only right and right for your daughter to listen to mother''s words."


    First Lady was silent for a while. He agreed with Mother Fang''s words, but his eyes were still blazing with fire: "That''s right, you''re right, Xi Mansion is mine, she''s my daughter!"


    "It''s good that First Lady can think like this." Wang Ma pursed his lips: "Madame, do you remember a girl called Hong Xiu being planted in Yan Er''s courtyard?"


    "Hong Xiu?" First Lady had obviously forgotten, she had placed quite a few people in front of Yan Er, but in the end, all of them were sent away by Yan Er, it would not be easy for her to insert more people into her group.


    "Do we still have more people?" First Lady was suspicious, if that was really the case, it would be great.


    Wang Ma nodded his head: "Yes, Third Wife''s courtyard has been relaxed recently, but this old servant managed to find a loophole when I tried to insert myself. I originally wanted to tell First Lady about it, but I was the only one who knew about it."


    First Lady did not mind at all as he trusted Wang Ma wholeheartedly. "The only person I can trust right now is you ¡­" Phoebe had left her side and was such a caring person. Wang Ma had always been waiting on her, and she had always been the one to take care of all the big and small matters in the clan.


    Wang Ma said with a smile: "First Lady, this old servant will definitely go through fire and water for you. I won''t hesitate at all."


    The two of them discussed the plan while Yan Er and the Third Wife were muttering to themselves, "Yesterday night, Xi Er saw that servant girl called Hong Xiu sneaking out."


    Third Wife hugged her precious son as she teased: "First Lady can''t sit still anymore, it seems like she''s thinking about all of you this time!"


    Yan Er nodded, seeing how the Third Wife dotes on him, but his eldest son Xi Rui cared very little, and could not help but ask: "I say, Third Wife, Xi Rui and Xi Ping are both your sons, if you are so pained and safe, you should at least take care of Xi Rui."


    There were many times when she came to this place and saw Xi Rui''s dejected look, her eyes filled with disappointment.


    Sometimes, Yan Er would even make the Third Wife feel shocked when she thought about it. Then, when she thought about it, Yan Er was actually a very direct person, after interacting with him for a long time, she would realize that she wasn''t someone who liked scheming. She also knew how to please others but wouldn''t flatter or flatter them.


    "This child didn''t come by easily. Perhaps it''s because of this reason that I''m particularly fond of him." When Xi Hong Sheng was born, he did not feel any waves at all. At that time, she was being pampered and Xi Hong Sheng needed the support of her own family. The First Lady was not stupid, just in case her child had something, she would not be able to escape responsibility, so Xi Rui''s birth went smoothly.


    Xi Ping, on the other hand, was born after a few ups and downs. At one point, she thought that the child would not be able to be kept alive, but the child was still able to stubbornly survive! This made her feel that it wasn''t easy for a child to come, so she doted on him a bit more!


    Yan Er calmed herself and returned the topic to Hong Xiu. "This time, the First Lady''s eyes are focused on me.


    Third Wife laughed sarcastically: "What else can there be, it''s just that who wants to kill two birds with one stone, it''ll be hard for both you and me." After pausing for a moment, he said hesitantly: "We should discuss this with Miss Jiu Er and see what her plans are."


    Yan Er nodded his head: "You are done with the production, it is about time for me to leave, I am afraid that Miss has already thought of a plan."


    During the night, a pretty servant girl kneeled down in First Lady''s room. She looked anxious and kept her head down, not daring to raise her head. Her small hands nervously curled into a ball in her sleeves as she replied Wang Ma''s interrogation.


    That day, Servant happened to pass by the front of Madame while he was cleaning the courtyard. He heard the servant, Xi Er, say, ''Madame, do you have one?''. The voice was extremely soft, and if one did not listen carefully, one would not even be able to hear it. " Even if Hong Xiu used the servant, her skin and hands were not that rough. Everyone could tell why Hong Xiu was using all of her effort to take care of her.


    Was Yan Er this slut pregnant? First Lady and Wang Ma looked at each other. This was bad, what if this little bitch was pregnant, based on the extent of Xi Hong Sheng pampering them, how could he have the power to turn things around in the future?


    First Lady gave Wang Ma a meaningful glance. Wang Ma understood: "Hong Xiu, this is something First Lady bestowed to you. You did very well." After which, he passed the things he had prepared to Hong Xiu.


    That bracelet was quite expensive. As a servant girl, she wouldn''t be able to buy it even if she was a slave for a lifetime! She looked at Wang Ma in shock and did not dare to extend her hand out to receive it. She stammered, "Wang Ma, this ¡­ "This is too expensive ¡­"


    "Speak of the devil, this servant gave this to Madame Hong Xiu!" The Wang Ma laughed, making Hong Xiu confused. What Madame? She was clearly just a rough maid.


    Looking at the confused Hong Xiu, Wang Ma chuckled, "Hehe, as long as you become a woman of Master, First Lady will carry you up to Madame, so you have to grasp this well."


    Hong Xiu then reacted and immediately said happily: "Thank you First Lady for agreeing, thank you First Lady!" After saying that, she kowtowed as if she was already a little Madame.


    Looking at her disgusting appearance, First Lady really wanted to beat these women who wanted to climb onto the bed badly. She forced out a smile: "Hong Xiu, you have to do something for me, when it is done, not only will I let you be my little Madame, I will also let you bear children for Master."


    Hong Xiu thought for a while, then said: "I will listen to First Lady''s instructions." Having a child meant she had someone to rely on. Regardless of whether it was a girl or a child, she felt that it didn''t matter. Of course, it would be best if she could have a son.


    "Wang Ma ¡­" First Lady felt disgusted seeing this kind of woman. He instructed Wang Ma and immediately pulled Hong Xiu up: "Come, let''s go out and talk. First Lady is a little tired and needs some rest."


    "Yes." Wang Ma enjoyed his respectful attitude very much. This was what Master felt. Look, even Wang Ma had given him some face. Thinking about that, he could not help but feel pleased with himself, and even his slippery tone was no longer as respectful as before.


    Wang Ma felt disdain in his heart. Pah, you really think you''re a master? Don''t you know what kind of trash you are! He whispered a few words into Hong Xiu''s ears, causing Hong Xiu''s eyes to light up: "Wang Ma''s idea is just right, it is truly wonderful!"


    "It''s getting late, Madame Hong Xiu can go back first, it won''t be good if people get suspicious." The higher Wang Ma held Hong Xiu, the harder he would work! Watching his back as he floated away, Wang Ma sneered, and turned around to return to his room. Seeing his pale face, he immediately consoled him: "It''s just a cheap hoof, why would First Lady hurt her spirit? It''s not worth it."


    "I understand this logic, but ¡­" But she still couldn''t hold it in, even though she and Xi Hong Sheng had been husband and wife for more than ten years, it was impossible for her not to care.


    "This old servant will massage your Madame." Wang Ma looked at First Lady rubbing his temples as he walked over. After rubbing for a while, he said hesitantly: "First Lady, this old servant has something to say, I don''t know if I should say it."


    First Lady sighed comfortably, closed his eyes and smiled: "What relationship do we have, it''s fine to just say it."


    "This old servant feels that the First Lady''s headache is somewhat unusual!" Wang Ma purposely emphasized the words'' unusual ''as he abruptly opened his eyes: "What do you mean!"


    "Even though Madame used to have headaches in the past, and most of them have been cured, during this period of time, they have become more and more serious ¡­ This old servant suddenly thought of the old Madame ¡­ " The Wang Ma bit down on the last few words very softly, so if one did not listen carefully, they would not be able to hear it at all.


    First Lady''s expression changed. If they drugged the old Madame, could it be that they wanted to drug him as well? This isn''t impossible, thinking back to the past it was just an occasional headache, but recently it has been getting more and more serious, and it doesn''t seem like it was caused by fatigue or worry at all. Moreover, this headache was different from the previous one. It was as if someone was tearing one of her tendons apart; it was extremely painful.

 C120

    "First Lady, let''s find a doctor and have a good look." The Wang Ma was worried, the strength in his fingers became even more gentle, and after a while, First Lady''s soft snoring could be heard, he could not help but sigh.


    In the middle of the night, Hong Xiu lied about going to the toilet again. She looked around, and under the moonlight, she saw a similar sneaky figure walking over, but she did not know if it was the people sent by Wang Ma, but they were hiding behind the tree.


    "Hong Xiu? Hong Xiu? " It was a woman''s voice, and sounded young. Hong Xiu heard her muttering, "Strange, I clearly saw a person''s shadow just now, why did he disappear in the blink of an eye? Did I run into a turtle? " His voice was already beginning to tremble.


    "I''m here." Hong Xiu came out from behind the tree. Borrowing the moonlight, she saw that it was a servant who was around the same age as her. She had already forgotten where she met Hong Xiu. Right now, her eyes and heart were filled with the thought of herself becoming a master and living a comfortable life. Even in her dreams, she dreamt that her wish had come true and that she would be surrounded by servants. It was truly beautiful.


    "Where is it? Give it to me." Hong Xiu impatiently reached out her hand, and the servant was startled, she probably did not expect Hong Xiu to be in such a rush, and fumbled around to give the things on him to Hong Xiu, then carefully warned him a few times.


    Hong Xiu said impatiently: "I got it, tell Wang Ma that the mission she gave me will definitely be completed." As long as she could get rid of the child in Madame''s womb, First Lady would make her into a little Madame, and even allow her to become pregnant, at that time, she would be her master. [Oh my god! This is so wonderful!]


    "Be careful." The servant''s tone was strange, Hong Xiu did not notice it, and quickly returned to her bosom with the paper bag. The impatient lady behind her, who was also a servant girl, was somewhat astonished! She was a servant in the courtyard of the First Lady, if there was anything ''good'' in the Wang Ma, or if it was inconvenient for her to pass them down, she would pass them on to her, allowing her to find her way out slowly.


    This servant girl that was like her was afraid that the Wang Ma would grant her some benefits, which was why she could not wait to kill people. Could it be that she did not know that the poison in her hands was a poison that could seal one''s throat? The entire Xi Mansion knew that Yan Er was highly favored by her. If she were to kill him, even the servant Hong Xiu would not be able to escape. Thinking that she was involved in this matter, her body trembled as she tore off a piece of skin from her face, revealing a large purplish-red birthmark on her face. In the dark of the night, it was extremely frightening.


    The maidservant hurriedly left, and the tree regained its silence!


    "Pfft!" A figure jumped down from the tree, with an expressionless face, as though he was a different person than usual. In a flash, he followed beside Hong Xiu.


    The next morning, a few bird sounds came from outside as Liu Xiang helped Xi Jiu Er to clean herself. Without saying a word, Liu Shui took out a paper bag from her chest and said: "This is a poison that can cause one''s throat to bleed!"


    Xi Jiu Er raised her brows, pursed her lips into a smile: "First Lady is indeed First Lady, I had thought that she would help Hong Xiu get pregnant, but who would have thought that it would be a blood-sealed-throat poison! What we need to do now, is to give it all to Yan Er, okay? "


    "Servant already informed Madame Yan Er last night." Liu Shui looked at the poison in his hand and asked, "Miss, what do you think we should do with this thing?"


    "What do you think?" Xi Jiu Er raised his brows, "You can handle it yourself!"


    Liu Shui had followed Xi Jiu Er for a long time, he already understood their intentions, and immediately laughed: "Servant understands." With that, he disappeared.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed, this Liu Shui was even more enlightened, her ability was good and intelligent, not bad at all.


    "Miss, what does Liu Shui understand? Do you want to throw that thing away? But Servant felt that Liu Shui''s smile was good ¡­ "How strange!" Liu Xiang was confused, so he did not understand.


    Seeing her like this, Xi Jiu Er could only speechlessly ask about the heavens. No one could compare to the way Liu Xiang served her. She was eating, dressing, etc. When will Liu Xiang be enlightened?


    "Miss, Servant... What kind of stupid question did the Servant not die to ask? " Liu Xiang asked carefully.


    "Nope." Xi Jiu Er did not plan to say more.


    "Then why did Miss roll her eyes?" Liu Xiang would never believe what Xi Jiu Er said.


    "I just feel bored rolling my eyes. I''m not laughing at your stupidity! "I''ve told you before, each of us has our own strengths, our own strengths and weaknesses. We can''t just see the other''s weaknesses and not the other''s strengths!" Turning her head to look at Liu Xiang''s blank face, she could not help but suspect whether Liu Xiang had understood or not.


    "Miss, if you say it like that, then Servant is stupid." Liu Xiang frowned and cried: "Servant knows that he is stupid, and only hopes to be able to stay by Miss''s side and not be despised by Miss."


    "Idiot, why would I dislike you? You are like my sister. We will never separate. " Xi Jiu Er pulled Liu Xiang''s hand, how could she despise Liu Xiang? In his previous life, Liu Xiang had never abandoned him, and in this life, she had never abandoned Liu Xiang either.


    "Miss... Servant, Servant is stupid ¡­ But Servant will definitely correct this mistake. Servant will definitely become smarter! " Liu Xiang seemed to be crying, but she held back and spoke while choking back her tears.


    "Idiot, there''s no need to correct yourself. Liu Xiang is already very good now." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Liu Xiang did not speak, she wanted to change her foolish habit, so she wanted to become clever and become Xi Jiu Er''s servant, not only having to take care of Xi Jiu Er''s daily life, she also had to do a lot of things.


    After a while, Liu Shui returned, smiling like a fox. Liu Xiang asked curiously: "Liu Shui, where did you go?"


    Liu Shui chuckled: "You''ll know soon enough."


    At noon, a huge event happened in Xi Mansion: Madame Yan Er was poisoned to death.


    His movements were really fast, this Hong Xiu was really impatient, he could not even waste a second of time, he already took the medicine last night! Yan Er was the treasure in Xi Hong Sheng''s palm, regardless of whether or not it was in the future, Xi Hong Sheng cared most about Yan Er.


    When Xi Jiu Er went to Yan Er''s courtyard, it was already a mess. Liu Xiang caught a servant and asked about the situation, and roughly said that the servant girl who usually served the meals had brought him poison soup, causing him to die immediately. The doctor even said that she carried a child in her womb!


    Right now, the Third Wife was in charge of the Xi Mansion. His methods were thunderous as he immediately tied up the servant girl and went to find a doctor. When the doctor arrived, the Third Wife still had a trace of Qi left and she died immediately after the doctor checked her pulse.


    "Doctor ¡­" Third Wife shouted in shock, "Yan Er, she ¡­!"


    "Madame Yan Er has already been poisoned to death, and she has been poisoned for a month." This was the first time the doctor had seen such a beautiful woman, and he felt sorry for her.


    "What!?" Have you already had flesh and blood for a month? " Third Wife screamed and pointed at the maidservants kneeling on the ground: "Men, tie her up for me. I want to interrogate her myself."


    The servant was so scared that her face turned white, and she trembled as she said, "Third Wife, Third Wife, Servant is wronged, Servant is wronged! Servant didn''t do anything, didn''t do anything at all ¡­ "


    When he passed by the door, the servant suddenly screamed out: "Third Wife, it''s Hong Xiu, Hong Xiu has touched this soup before!" She didn''t know whether it was Hong Xiu or not, the only thing she could do now was to shirk her responsibilities. That way, she would be able to easily recover from her injuries, and as long as she insisted that it was Hong Xiu, she might even be able to escape death.


    "Hong Xiu?" The Third Wife pointed at Hong Xiu and said, "Men, tie Hong Xiu up as well."


    When Hong Xiu found out about Yan Er''s death, she was already stunned. How could this be? First Lady said that it was only a fetal skating pill, how could it become a poison that could seal one''s throat with blood? Could it be that the First Lady wanted to use him to eradicate Madame?


    Hong Xiu''s brain worked very quickly, she was sure that the medicine First Lady gave her was a poison that sealed one''s throat. She had used her own hands to remove the thorn in her eye, Yan Er. While she was panicking, she heard someone say that it was done by herself. She was so shocked that she almost fainted.


    "Third Wife is innocent, it wasn''t Servant''s doing, it wasn''t Servant''s doing!" Hong Xiu screamed out, she could not die, she could not die, she was only thirteen years old, how beautiful was she? It was done by the First Lady, not her, she wanted to tell him the truth!


    Xi Jiu Er came at the right time, and she frowned: "Third Wife, what exactly happened here? Is it true that Madame Yan Er is dead? "


    Third Wife covered her tears as she expressed her sorrow, "That''s right, I just heard the news and came over. Madame Yan Er, poor Madame, she was carried around by someone and was killed by poison ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression was also very sad, she walked over and looked at the Third Wife: "Looking at, I''m also very sad, and have you called me father?"


    "Master has already been notified." Third Wife wiped her tears: "First Lady and Old Madame have also been informed. First Lady said that he is not able to come because he is not feeling well, so I will take care of the backyard in Old Madame."


    Heh ¡ª ¡ª Seriously, Xi Jiu Er fell for it! She sighed: "Third Wife, have you captured the culprit yet?"


    The Third Wife pointed at the two girls who were tied up by his wife and said: "I wonder if it''s the two of them who are responsible for this. If we interrogate them strictly, we will eventually find out who the mastermind is."


    "Miss doesn''t know. Servant doesn''t know anything. She said that Servant did it. Servant didn''t do it at all." Screaming, he tried to break free from the old granny''s restraints, and flattered Xi Jiu Er: "Miss is an intelligent person, with one glance you can tell that this matter is not related to the Servant at all. I beg the Miss to be the judge, and to severely punish the culprit who killed Yan Er."


    "Miss Jiu Er, this Servant isn''t one. Don''t listen to Hong Xiu''s nonsense ¡­" How could this girl be as eloquent as Hong Xiu? He wanted to say something incoherently to defend herself, but beforehe could say anything, she was already scared to tears, "Servant was wrongly accused, Servant was unjustly accused ¡­ "Sob, sob, sob ¡­"

 C121

    "The Third Wife will decide who is innocent, don''t let the murderer get away scot-free!" His faintly discernible line of sight looked at Hong Xiu, causing Hong Xiu''s soul to fly out of his body. He thought to himself: Could it be that Miss Jiu Er already knows something? Suddenly, he felt like his whole body was in a cave of ice. Not a single part of his body wasn''t cold.


    First Lady said that her body was not easy to avoid, but at this time, she brought Wang Ma over again! She was afraid Hong Xiu would not be able to bear it and confess, and she came here!


    Third Wife and the others saluted the First Lady. The First Lady walked over to the bedside and gave a faint ''hmm'' sound. Her long and peerless face couldn''t help but want to grab hold of it every time she looked at it.


    Without leaking any hints to give Wang Ma a meaningful glance, Wang Ma immediately went up to take a breath, and discovered that he was really dead. He sent a look back with vengeance, excitement, and all sorts of other emotions flashed past in the First Lady''s eyes, and in the end, sighed: "Sigh, what a shame."


    "Third Wife, what do you think about this matter? Have you found the culprit? " First Lady turned his head and asked.


    "The two of them are the most suspicious!" Third Wife pointed at the two maids.


    "Master has arrived!" A little girl hurriedly came to report, following closely behind Xi Hong Sheng who was at a loss as to what to do. Xi Hong Sheng walked over to the bedside in quick steps. The woman on the bed had a devilishly beautiful face with black lips and white skin! He emotionally said, "Yan Er ¡­ Yan Er, you... What''s the matter with you? "


    "She was poisoned." Xi Jiu Er pointed to the two servants at the door and said: "The two of them are the most suspicious."


    Xi Hong Sheng was not able to accept the fact that Yan Er had already died. After a while, he suddenly turned his head and shouted angrily, "You two slut, you actually dared to poison Yan Er to death!" Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes were bloodshot. The two maids were so scared that they were trembling.


    The servant girl beside Hong Xiu had already fainted, leaving Hong Xiu at a loss! Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed: "Hehe, with such a cowardly character, you probably aren''t the one who killed Madame Yan Er, then you''re the only one."


    "Jiu Er, what you said was too arbitrary." First Lady immediately said. From the looks of it, Xi Hong Sheng had already lost her reason, if Xi Jiu Er was trying to mislead her, she would be in fire as well.


    "Doesn''t mother feel that? She was so scared that she fainted. She didn''t even have the chance to defend herself. The only road left for her was death! If she is the murderer, then this is an extremely stupid murderer! " Xi Jiu Er said coldly, seeing what the First Lady had to say, he immediately rushed in front of her and said: "Father, if this person is not the culprit, then we''ll know after investigation."


    "Alright, people, torture me." Xi Hong Sheng shouted.


    "Master, this is equivalent to taking a beating." First Lady immediately stopped him.


    Third Wife then said faintly: "First Lady, you are protecting that servant like this, is there some other secret?"


    "What do you mean?" First Lady bit her lips and asked: "I am just seeking truth from the facts."


    "Master interrogating a servant is just to find out the real culprit, and it''s also to find the truth! Concede to make a move? If it wasn''t for that servant girl, we definitely wouldn''t have wronged her. If she really did do it, we definitely wouldn''t have let her off! " Third Wife''s face darkened.


    "You!" First Lady felt depressed.


    Xi Hong Sheng roared: "All of you shut up, let me ask you, were Yan Er killed by you!" The expression in Xi Hong''s eyes was extremely terrifying, and even First Lady and Third Wife had never seen such an enraged look before. Their hearts couldn''t help but tremble, let alone the culprit, Hong Xiu!


    Hong Xiu felt that Xi Hong''s thoughts were like a pair of hands grabbing onto his throat, causing him to not even have a chance to catch his breath, he kneeled down on the ground in fear and admitted his actions, "Master, First Lady let me do it, it was the First Lady who gave me the medicine, she said that if Yan Er lost her life, she will take Servant as her concubine, and once Servant heard First Lady''s words, she will take the medicine into Yan Er''s soup ¡­ However, Servant did not know that it was used for rich poisons. If Servant knew about this, he would definitely not dare to do so. "Master ¡ª"


    "You little slut, how dare you slander others!" First Lady pointed at Hong Xiu and cursed angrily, she felt her vision go black and almost fainted. If not for Wang Ma''s support, she would probably have fallen down on her butt on the ground.


    "Master, what Servant said is absolutely true. In order to get Xi Hong Sheng to believe in him, Hong Xiu swore a poison oath.


    "To even swear such a poisonous oath, it seems like what Hong Xiu said was not lies. Poor Yan Er ¡­ "And that unborn child ¡­" Third Wife covered her face and sobbed. In this kind of oppressive situation, her crying didn''t arouse any feelings of disgust at all. On the contrary, the more she heard, the more sad she felt.


    Xi Hong Sheng thought about what Yan Er had done to him, and about how she had killed two of her own sons. She immediately became enraged, grabbed a stick from the side and smashed it onto First Lady! The beating caused First Lady to cry out loud, "Master, Master... It wasn''t me, it wasn''t me ¡­ Ah ¡­ It was that little slut who wronged me ¡­ "Ahh!"


    Many people were very surprised when they saw this scene. However, no one doubted that there was actually a stick in the room. First Lady was beaten up like a monkey and sent jumping up and down to lose face. In the end, Wang Ma still held onto Xi Hong Sheng''s thighs without letting go, giving First Lady the chance to avoid the pain of having to retract his rod.


    "Oh, Master, you''re still not clear about what kind of person our Madame is? She did not harm Madame Yan Er ¡­ Master, please calm your anger, someone must have instigated you. " Wang Ma tightly hugged onto Xi Hong Sheng''s thigh, crying until her tears and mucus flowed down.


    Xi Hong Sheng did not take advantage of her as he kicked Wang Ma far away and shouted: "Scram, you two old bitches, what kind of trash do you think I am not aware of?


    Wang Ma hugged onto Xi Hong Sheng''s thigh with all her might and took a hit on her back. Even though he had been wrong for more than ten years, it would not be logical for him to manage such a large Xi Mansion, educate his children, and serve his parents-in-law! Even if there is no contribution, there is still a need for it. Now, Master only needs to rely on the word ''maid'' to say that it is'' First Lady '', and that it is unfair to First Lady! "


    The Wang Ma was speaking in a rush, so how could Xi Hong Sheng listen in when he was extremely angry? He extended his leg and kicked fiercely at Wang Ma''s chest, successfully breaking away from Wang Ma.


    "Ugh!" Wang Ma felt an unbearable pain in his chest, but he also felt disgusted and panicked. He couldn''t change it in a single breath, so he just laid on the ground, clutching his chest and couldn''t say a word.


    The First Lady was extremely afraid, just a moment ago, Xi Hong Sheng was like a madman, slapping him hard, as though he wanted to beat him to death. Seeing Xi Hong Sheng kicking Wang Ma, she ran towards her, holding onto her skirt, she ran into the courtyard of the Old Madame, and shouted: "Old Madame, save me, save me!"


    They only saw that it was a rare scene that only happened once in a hundred years. Xi Hong Sheng and First Lady ran forward one after the other, while First Lady ran ahead of them with his hair in a mess. He lifted his clothes and ran without care for his image, screaming, "Old Madame, save me ¡­ "He''s going to die ¡­"


    Xi Hong Sheng, who was in hot pursuit, was holding onto a three-finger-thick rod. His face was filled with rage, and did not dare to let anyone near him! He was able to scare people into retreating far away ¡­ Ye Zichen looked at the scene in surprise.


    "You wicked woman, see if I beat you to death today!"


    "Help..."


    "No one will save you!"


    "Old Madame will save me ¡ª"


    "You wish!"


    Thus, the two of them went into the Old Madame''s room, and the mother of joy that had rushed out was stunned as she watched the two people approach. She could only use the word shock to describe her shock as she stammered, "First Lady, Master, you two ¡­ "You guys ¡­"


    "mother of joy, save me! Master wants to kill me!" mother of joy appeared in front of him as if he was his savior. He lifted his skirt and pushed at First Lady as he ran into the house and shouted, "Old Madame, save me!"


    "Master!" mother of joy regained her senses, her face darkened as she shouted: "This is the courtyard of the old Madame, Master, please do not be so presumptuous." mother of joy was the number one maid in the entire Old Madame and was the number one elder in the household. Naturally, Xi Hong Sheng wanted to give him some face.


    After being shouted at by mother of joy, Xi Hong Sheng''s head became much clearer. He put down the rod in his hand and said with a heavy face: "mother of joy, go and call First Lady out. We will not trouble her with matters between us!"


    Another servant came out from the house: "Master, Old Madame will let you in."


    Xi Hong Sheng could only muster up the courage and enter the house, but as soon as he reached the Old Madame''s courtyard, he was ruthlessly smashed by a teacup. Fortunately he was mentally prepared, and was not hit, but he was still shocked.


    "mother ¡­" Seeing the old Madame''s furious face, Xi Hong Sheng immediately became obedient.


    "Look at how you''re doing. A dignified Master is actually running around with a stick like those local thugs outside. Tomorrow, you''ll become the laughing stock of the entire capital!" The old Madame was furious, she slammed the table beside him.


    How would Xi Hong Sheng dare to say a word? You can only lower your head...


    "Even if the sky falls, you will still have to endure it. Look at your current left faction, how do you even look like a man?" The old Madame''s face was filled with disappointment as she looked left and right to see what she was looking for. The mother of joy hurriedly stopped him, "Old Madame, Master did not know her place when she was angry, it hurt your heart when you attacked him. What do mother and son have to say to each other that they can''t speak properly?"


    "I won''t hurt, I''ll only die from anger! Hmph, if you don''t ask me the reason, I know what it is. I am not the''s wife. The main wife would always be the main wife. Even if the concubinage s were favoured, they would still be the main wife. How could men spoil their concubines and eliminate their wives? It''s just a woman, wouldn''t that mean she doesn''t care about the reputation of her family? " The old Madame snorted coldly, and said with a heart that was not in her mouth.

 C122

    "mother, you don''t know what kind of good deed this wicked woman has done. She poisoned Yan Er and the child in her womb!" Xi Hong Sheng listened to Old Madame talking about her own things. She was not only the son of the Old Madame, but also the manager of the Xi Mansion. Could it be that she couldn''t even decide how to handle her wife''s matters?


    The old Madame was shocked. Previously, when the servant said that the person was dead, she did not tell her that Yan Er was still pregnant! The old Madame thought about her grandson, who she had never met before, and felt upset.


    Seeing that she was so frightened, mother of joy immediately calmed her down: "Old Madame, listen to what First Lady has to say."


    "Tell me, did you do it?" The old Madame pointed at First Lady with a trembling finger, looking sorrowful: "If you don''t give me an explanation today, I will have Master divorce you."


    With a boom, the First Lady was stunned. He suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Old Madame, you can''t do this!"


    "You can''t do this? "See if I can." The old Madame held her breath, saying, "When you were young, I would turn a blind eye to your nonsense. At that time, it would be very unfair for you if you had a eldest son! But, how many sons do you think I have now? Xi Mao, Xi Rui, and Xi Ping who was still in his cradle! "Oh my three sons, even if I die, I am unwilling. This is the result of the indulgence of an old woman like me!"


    Xi Hong Sheng had a total of seven children, four daughters and three sons. Other than Xi Jiu Er, who would be willing to help out with four of her daughters, the other children had bad reputations. She was not a blind person, how could she not understand?


    was a young master, a prodigal son. Old Madame had truly loved and hated him when he talked about him. He had been idle all day without any proper bearing, and did not even read properly from the books, but was just enjoying himself with the Young Master. In the end, he was the direct descendant. Old Madame would never admit that he was used to him too.) This Xi Rui was honest, and did not know how to change ¡­


    Looking at these descendants, the old Madame was so anxious that her hair stood on end. She only hoped that she would be able to see a capable grandson in her life, even if she had to die it would be worth it! As a result, she valued her children more and more.


    First Lady never expected that a normal plan would attract such a strong reaction from the old Madame. And Xi Hong Sheng, he actually did not care about the relationship between husband and wife, and treated himself as a lowly servant, allowing him to be beaten and scolded! Thinking of this, she made up her mind. She could never admit to this.


    "mother, this matter wasn''t done by my daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law doesn''t even know that she is pregnant, and furthermore, she has been in the house for so long, my daughter-in-law has never schemed against her. Knowing that the Master dotes on her, even daughter-in-law stay far away from her. " First Lady''s face was aggrieved as tears rolled down.


    "I''ll give you another chance. If I find out that you did this, not only will I divorce your wife, I will also bring shame and disgrace upon you." While Yan Er had been at the manor for the past few months, the First Lady had indeed not caused any trouble for her.


    Disreputable? First Lady trembled. Not only would he make things difficult for his family, he would also make things difficult for his children. She did not believe that the old Madame would be so heartless. She would eventually think of the possibility for the old Madame.


    The old Madame seemed to have already seen through her thoughts, and said coldly: "Don''t forget, the Third Wife has been coveting the position of the main house for so many years, do you think that if you were to divorce someone, no one would become a main house Madame?" Looking at First Lady''s instantly changed face, the First Lady taunted: "Third Wife''s identity is comparable to yours, her family background is similar to yours, and her looks are also similar to yours, the mistake is that she was a concubinage and had no choice but to submit herself for so many years. Tell me, what would happen if she became a Madame?"


    What would happen? First Lady seemed to be able to see his complacent expression! She bit her lips and said resolutely: "mother, although my daughter-in-law is not a virtuous or virtuous woman, but my daughter-in-law has been taking care of Xi Mansion for so many years. Your daughter-in-law admits that you did a lot of wrong when you were young. Your daughter-in-law, I think you have also done a lot of wrong things to mother. However, ever since Mao''er was left behind, his daughter-in-law had devoted all her energy to education, thinking that the child could inherit the legacy of the Master. As for Yan Er, her daughter-in-law had never hurt her before. The death of Yan Er this time was not what her daughter-in-law meant. "


    The old Madame was startled and frowned. Honestly speaking, did she believe the First Lady? But hearing how the First Lady spoke so frankly ¡­ The mother of joy touched him without leaving a trace, and the old Madame finally came to her senses. Why would the First Lady say that? Wasn''t it because she was afraid that she would be abandoned? As long as she didn''t admit it, she was still the First Lady, and no one could do anything to her.


    "mother ¡­" First Lady thought that he had changed Old Madame''s mind, but when he saw that Old Madame''s expression had changed in just a moment, her heart sank.


    "Since you said that, this old one shall let mother of joy personally interrogate the two maidservants." The old Madame said indifferently, she did not even look at First Lady''s expression, she turned and instructed the latter, who nodded and said, "Yes, this old servant will go now."


    "All of you, kneel right here. No one is allowed to get up until the truth is revealed." The old Madame swept a glance at the two of them and stood up.


    The only ones left on the ground were First Lady and Xi Hong Sheng. Of course, Xi Hong Sheng did not believe First Lady''s bullshit. If he hadn''t seen what kind of person the First Lady was for more than ten years, he would have definitely grown a pair of eyes! No matter how he looked at it, he felt First Lady was extremely disgusting. First Lady turned around and suddenly saw a pair of disgusted eyes, but his heart was actually very calm.


    Her and Xi Hong Sheng''s relationship as husband and wife had already worn out bit by bit, so how could there still be any feelings between them? It was just putting on an act, giving each other some face, and giving Xi Mansion some face. But ever since Yan Er had arrived, he had used some sort of cunning trick to make Xi Hong Sheng ignore him and not come to his room on the monthly fixed day ¡­


    Thinking about Yan Er, the fear in First Lady''s heart disappeared completely. Hmph, it''s good that she died, this kind of slut should have made her move earlier, she only hated herself for making a move too late.


    mother of joy led the people and went into Yan Er''s room. Third Wife did not deal with it, as this matter was becoming more and more natural for Old Madame to take care of it. mother of joy looked at Yan Er, and heard what had happened. Everyone in Yan Er''s room could testify, and the soup on the table was still there!


    "Just now Master asked Hong Xiu, and Hong Xiu said that she was ordered by First Lady, and that she was going to bring Hong Xiu out to be her little Madame in the future, so Hong Xiu could not resist the enticement of First Lady and agreed to drug her. Third Wife''s attitude was very fair, and did not have any intention of favoring either side.


    Xi Jiu Er stood at the side with a look of regret. mother of joy looked at her, and turned to ask Hong Xiu: "Is what Third Wife said true?"


    "Yes, what Third Wife said is the truth. Servant really doesn''t know that it is a blood seal throat poison, if I knew that it was the poison, I wouldn''t have beat you to death." Hong Xiu trembled in fear. She had just heard the mutterings of Xi Jiu Er and Third Wife, and the more she listened, the more afraid she became. If she poisoned her own master, the family would be implicated if she murdered the servant of her son. She still had an old mother, she couldn''t die.


    mother of joy frowned: "Where is the poison?"


    "The poison is in my room, under the bed, under the fifth brick." Hong Xiu actively coordinated with him and explained everything. mother of joy ordered people to find poison and then brought Hong Xiu to the courtyard of First Lady to let her find the servant who gave her the poison last night.


    "mother of joy, Madame Yan Er..." The Third Wife asked hesitantly. The arrival of the mother of joy represented the arrival of the old Madame, which meant that the old Madame had full authority to handle this matter.


    mother of joy looked out at the sky, seeing that the corpses could not be left for long, he got someone to ask Xi Hong Sheng how he was going to deal with them. This matter was temporarily brought to an end. At least, there would be nothing more for the Third Wife s.


    "As expected of the mother of joy, she is clear-minded when doing things." The Third Wife said indifferently.


    Xi Jiu Er smirked, "Tell me, what did this Wang Ma do?"


    "What else can I do ¡­" Third Wife pursed his lips.


    Very quickly, he found the remaining poison under Hong Xiu''s bed. Xi Hong Sheng said that it would take a while, and he wanted to meet Yan Er one last time, while Hong Xiu was in the courtyard of First Lady, pointing out the servant who gave him the poison.


    "The mother of joy is not them."


    "Look carefully, all the servants are in the courtyard of First Lady." mother of joy raised her eyebrows and asked. She was very clear on how many servants there were in each courtyard, and she was also very clear on how many servants there were in First Lady''s courtyard.


    If First Lady added people, it would be for Xi Hong Sheng to enjoy!


    "Look, look carefully ¡­" There''s really no one like that! " Hong Xiu was close to tears. If she could not find the person, how could she prove that the First Lady gave him the medicine? In the end, First Lady said that she was the one who slandered him, and in the end, she was the only one who died?


    "Maybe it''s someone else from another courtyard ¡­" Hong Xiu cried: "It must be someone from another courtyard."


    mother of joy knew that the Old Madame was trying to set an example for others by killing them, so she made a big move and gathered all of the servants and wives. Hong Xiu looked at every single one of them carefully, making everyone panic. If Hong Xiu really had to find someone to carry her back with, who could stop her?


    Fortunately, Hong Xiu still had a little conscience in the end, "mother of joy, we don''t even have one here ¡­ "She has a big black mole at the corner of her mouth ¡­"


    Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard it, then heard from Hong Xiu that there was a big black mole in her mouth. Everyone looked at each other and said that they had never seen such a person. Hearing that, Hong Xiu became anxious: "How is that possible, I saw it clearly."

 C123

    "Is there such a person in our residence?" The mother of joy asked loudly, and all of them shook their heads, saying that they had never seen this person before. Hong Xiu was already crying with snot and tears streaming down his face, as he cried out, "mother of joy, what Hong Xiu said is true. He definitely isn''t lying ¡­"


    The mother of joy said indifferently: "Hong Xiu, you have plotted to kill Madame, and then laid all the crimes on him. Her heart can be killed, and her actions can be killed. Today, on behalf of the old Madame, I will arrange for your family to be sold, do you have any complaints? "


    Hong Xiu shook her head fiercely. "mother of joy, First Lady told me to do it, it''s her, she must have killed that person. Otherwise, why couldn''t she find that person?" Hong Xiu''s little face was snow-white as she hugged mother of joy''s leg and cried.


    The mother of joy was indifferent, behind her, there were already wives pushing her away. As Hong Xiu screamed, they took out kernels s and stuffed them into Hong Xiu''s mouth. Everyone''s gaze followed her yard. The family was sold out, waiting for their fate to come to an end without a word.


    mother of joy coughed and immediately attracted everyone''s attention, "Ahem, recently there have been some people in this residence who have been hiding dirty thoughts, it is really disgusting to look at. Today, with Hong Xiu as your leader, I shall let you all see what will happen to the person who harmed Master when he was not on duty. "


    mother of joy raised her eyebrows, sweeping across everyone with her imposing manner, and finally left with a cold snort. When they walked to the entrance of the old Madame and heard Xi Hong Sheng insulting the First Lady, his tone was ice-cold and merciless, and his words were even more despicable. Sigh ¡­ Master really did not care about anything for this woman called Yan Er.


    "Master, do you mean that I was the one who poisoned them? Do you really believe a maid''s words? It could also be that someone else had framed me, which was the reason for the plan. Master, don''t forget, if Yan Er dies, the person who benefits the most would be Third Wife. " First Lady had also calmed down. She could not lose the trust Xi Hong Sheng had in her, and right now, all the people in the palace were from the Third Wife. Once she lost Xi Hong Sheng''s support, her life would be extremely difficult.


    "Hmph, you wicked woman, you still dare to quibble at such a time. Whether or not you killed Yan Er is something you know best. Swear, if you killed Yan Er, you and Mao''er would die a horrible death." First Lady''s face was so hypocritical, his expression so pretentious, his words so shameless, Xi Hong Sheng felt extremely disgusted. He had already detested this woman after more than ten years as a husband and wife. He was even more disgusted by her opened mouth and face.


    "Master, Mao''er is also your son. How could you let a cat swear such a venomous oath?" The First Lady screamed.


    Xi Hong Sheng laughed coldly: "I know he is my son. I only sent him to find out if you were telling the truth, and sure enough, you are lying."


    "Hmph, I am speaking the truth." The First Lady shouted in anger.


    "Then swear it!"


    "There''s no need to swear."


    "Then it''s fake!"


    "Master, don''t tell me that you don''t trust me at all after marriage for so many years?"


    "I don''t believe it!" It was a straightforward answer.


    mother of joy could not bear to listen any longer, she lifted the curtain and walked in. First Lady''s heart was moved as well. She wanted to find some clues from mother of joy''s face, but unfortunately, mother of joy still had a calm expression. Xi Hong Sheng had long since determined that it was First Lady''s doing. He cursed in his heart, The Old Madame should now agree to let him divorce her.


    When mother of joy announced the results, First Lady heaved a sigh of relief, and Xi Hong Sheng saw all of this. He stood up and said coldly: "That is only a servant, there is an old mother, who gave her the guts to harm the master of the household?" Xi Hong Sheng was not an idiot either, how could he not understand some of the things that had happened?


    No matter what Xi Hong Sheng said, she would not care about it. As long as she was still Madame Xi, it would be the result she wanted! When Xi Hong Sheng left, he said coldly, "You really make me hate you." With that, he turned around and left.


    First Lady''s body shook and he almost fainted. Then, as if nothing had happened, he said to mother of joy, "Sorry to trouble you, mother of joy."


    mother of joy said lightly: "This is this old servant''s duty."


    When First Lady left, she looked at her back then turned around to report to her. How did the old Madame fall asleep? Lying on the bed expressionlessly, he listened to mother of joy''s report and came over after a while. He then said in disgust, "This time Master is disgusted with me."


    mother of joy walked over and rubbed her head, "Old Madame, children have their own sons, grandchildren, and blessings. It is more important for you to quickly recuperate your body, you did not know that when this old servant went to see the safe little Young Master, a child that was barely a month old actually smiled at this old servant!"


    Speaking of the fat and white grandsons, no matter how angry Old Madame was, a smile finally emerged on her face. She asked with interest: "Really? You really know how to laugh? "


    "That''s right, this old servant is so happy." mother of joy laughed and said.


    When First Lady returned to the courtyard, he smashed everything in the house to pieces. Wang Ma tiptoed and circled around the broken pieces of the floor and said, "First Lady, calm down."


    "Wang Ma, Master hates me. I have completely lost my favour." What was shameful about this? This is Xi Mansion, there will always be a time when I can regain my dignity ¡­ If they lost their favor, they would lose all opportunities.


    "Madame, that won''t happen. No matter what, you are Master''s wife, Xi Mansion''s mistress ¡­" So what if he did? His identity was there for all to see! Wang Ma said: "Madame, keep Qingshan here and he won''t be afraid of fire and wood. After a period of time, the anger in Master will lessen, and we will naturally be able to return to how we were before."


    "Really?" First Lady was currently very discouraged. She just wanted someone to give her hope, and Wang Ma''s words had undoubtedly ignited a spark of hope in her!


    "Of course it''s true." Wang Ma said softly: "First Lady, as long as we are around for a while, we will have a chance to make a comeback. Think about it, what have we not encountered in all these years? Are you afraid of these things? "


    First Lady took a deep breath and nodded at you, "Yes, Wang Ma is right. What have we not experienced before? Could it be that I''m afraid of such a small problem? "


    Seeing that First Lady had regained his spirits, Wang Ma also agreed, "It''s not like that ~ ~"


    When this Xi Hong Sheng walked out of the Old Madame''s courtyard, he immediately went to see Yan Er. His expression was extremely sorrowful and the Old Madame also cried on the side, "Poor Yan Er ¡­ He left just like that ¡­ "There is not even one justice!"


    A vicious look flashed across Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes: "Just relax, Yan Er will not die in vain!" He no longer had any feelings for her wife who had been married to him for many years. All that was left in his heart was disgust, incomparable disgust!


    Third Wife looked at him with a soft voice: "Master, I''m afraid we have misunderstood First Lady. She normally doesn''t have any grudges with Yan Er, how would she be harmed?"


    "Hmph, this wicked woman!" Xi Hong Sheng snorted coldly, he looked at the lady who was no longer angry, and started to regret. And that unborn child, he died before he even got the news?


    "Master, the deceased have passed away, don''t be sad, it''s so hot, we can''t let Yan Er go so easily, if not ¡­" Third Wife wiped her tears.


    "Let Hong Xiu die with her!" Even if Xi Hong Sheng was a little reluctant, the most important thing was to return to the ground and rest. She just wanted to have a good look at Yan Er. It would be hard to find such a beauty in the world in the future.


    Xi Hong Sheng had personally taken care of Yan Er''s aftermath. Even if Yan Er was the concubinage''s funeral, they could not spread the news, and the coffin had to be carried out of the back door. It was already night time, so Xi Hong Sheng could only wait on the servant in Yan Er''s room ¡­


    Third Wife scoffed, this was a man. He kept saying how he loved that woman, but who knew that when he turned around, he would be together with other women. Fortunately, he had woken up in time. Otherwise, his fate would have been similar to Yan Er''s.


    In the middle of the night, Yan Er''s grave was thrown aside by a few people. After opening the coffin, a woman suddenly stood up, and started gasping for air. Liu Shui gave the few men who opened the coffin gold, telling them that if anyone dared to speak out, they would wait for their heads to fall on the ground.


    "Madame Yan Er, are you better now?" Liu Shui immediately stepped forward to help Yan Er up. After half a day of breathing, Yan Er finally caught her breath, she coughed and looked around. It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard.


    "Don''t be afraid, there''s nothing here. Liu Shui will protect Madame Yan Er here." Liu Shui comforted her and carried Yan Er on her back as she walked towards a horse not far away. The horse carriage was prepared with food and a happy dress. There was also some silver taels and some silver notes.


    "Madame Yan Er, Liu Shui will bring you to an inn. Miss said that in the future, you will walk on your yang path, that she will pass her own bridge, and that the two of them will not interfere with each other." Liu Shui grinned and waved his whip.


    Arriving at an inn, Liu Shui brought Yan Er to the already prepared guest room, cupped his hands, and said: "Madame Yan Er, farewell." Her usually charming and innocent face didn''t have much of an expression as a look of farewell flashed in her eyes. She then jumped out of the window.


    Before Yan Er even had the chance to say goodbye, she felt as if something was missing in her heart. She walked to the copper mirror to carefully dress herself up, then sat on the bed and waited quietly.


    "Creaak."


    Yan Er suddenly raised her head to look at the door, only to see a man dressed in a long robe appear. Yan Er could not help but stare foolishly as she suddenly regained her senses and immediately knelt down. "Greetings, Your Highness!"


    "Get up." This person was not a bystander, he was someone Xi Jiu Er had seen before - Xiao Feng, Feng Qing Cheng!


    "Yes." Yan Er stood up obediently, she did not dare look straight at them.


    "Tell me, what have you learned in the past few months in Xi Mansion!" The man''s voice was cold, without any emotion.


    An hour later, Yan Er did not hear the man''s voice. She could not help but raise her head and look at the beautiful cyan flame in the candle flame. Feng Qing Cheng''s expression was startled, and only found her voice in the end: "Have you found that thing?"


    "No, this subordinate thinks that Xi Hong Sheng does not even know where that thing went." Everyone said that Feng Qing Cheng had no intention to steal the position of Emperor, but who knew that he planned to?


    "Is that so?" Feng Qing Cheng frowned slightly.


    After a while, Feng Qing Cheng said: "Alright, you can go back to the Wind Nation. It''s about time you get better after ''getting sick'' for the next few months."


    "Yes sir!"

 C124

    After all that had happened, Xi Wan Feng was back ¡­ Bringing good news to the First Lady, the ''master'' said that she would become a queen in the future! Unknowingly, the First Lady had comforted him a lot, and Xi Wan Feng even said, "How did that great deity leave? He even knows what happened a long time ago, his foresight is truly like that of a god." This time, First Lady was relieved.


    After knowing that Xi Wan Rong had been sent to the villa, Xi Wan Feng comforted her: "mother, little sister Rong''s temper is very bad, it would be good if she could go to the villa to recuperate."


    "Hai, that''s what I thought after this too ¡­" First Lady said helplessly: "I only hope that she can be sensible and obey, then don''t ask for anything."


    During this period of time, the First Lady''s condition had not recovered, which caught the attention of the First Lady. They suspected that Xi Jiu Er was the real culprit, so they searched through their house, but could not find anything, and even suspected that the servant was involved, but they were unable to find the culprit.


    In the end, the doctors were able to cure all of First Lady, and as long as they did not suspect anything, everything would be fine. Sure enough, after relaxing for a few days, First Lady''s condition had improved greatly, and from somewhere, people were saying that Xi Hong Sheng had a woman outside. Her heart dropped, and she felt that it was impossible. In just a few days, the news of Xi Wan Rong suffering in the manor came again. First Lady felt that something was up, and was always worried that Xi Wan Rong might not be able to sleep well, and his body collapsed again.


    "The Great Miss has been accompanying the First Lady for the past few days, but she hasn''t made any movements. She just went to Old Madame''s place a while ago, and it''s been a bit longer. She still hasn''t come out yet." Liu Xiang said.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while and said without a care, "Since Xi Wan Feng was able to endure for so long, he probably made a big move." Based on her understanding of Xi Wan Feng, this big move was most likely meant to take her life.


    In a while, the servants outside reported, saying that the old Madame had instructed them to go to the temple tomorrow to pray for the old Madame.


    "He''s here!" Xi Jiu Er laughed: "See, I''m afraid there will be a good show tomorrow."


    With a rumble, there was a sudden clap of thunder outside, and in the blink of an eye, it began to rain. Liu Xiang looked at the sky and said, "Aiya, it''s raining in Miss, let''s push it off." The originally bright sky was now shrouded in darkness.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while and said: "Since Xi Wan Feng has prepared this long, then we cannot let her have this plan for nothing, right? I''m afraid her plans changed on this rainy day. "


    "No ¡­" Liu Xiang said with some unease, "What if, what if the Great Miss attacks with such ferocity?"


    "Kill him?" I just wanted to kill myself. I''m not afraid of death. " Xi Wan Feng smiled. Xi Wan Feng, no matter how you want to kill me, I will kill you before you die.


    Liu Xiang saw that her Miss had determined that there was nothing she could do, so he said, "Then tomorrow, my Servant will go with my Miss."


    "No need, you can stay at home." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Liu Shui, follow me." Liu Shui knew how to save himself a lot of trouble. Since Xi Wan Feng planned to take his life this time, then he reckoned that he would not make such a big deal out of it. Liu Xiang didn''t know how to run or fight fast, he would only be a burden.


    Liu Xiang pursed her lips and said: "Then when the time comes, Miss will have to be careful in everything ¡­"


    "Liu Xiang, don''t worry!" Xi Jiu Er smiled and comforted Liu Xiang with a pill. Suddenly, an idea came to him: "Liu Xiang, didn''t you want to help me? "Come here ¡­"


    It rained all night, and only on the second day did it clear up. Xi Jiu Er led Liu Shui out the door, and saw Xi Wan Feng and Xi Mao''s figures, Xi Wan Feng''s face did not look good, Xi Jiu Er knew why, but because of Xi Mao, this sudden accident had messed up her entire plan.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, you''re late." Xi Wan Feng''s eyes looked like they were about to spew fire, but she couldn''t get angry just for the sake of her image. Seeing her twisted face, Xi Jiu Er was ecstatic, and she even spoke the truth. I overslept! "


    "You!" Xi Wan Feng wanted to say something but he stopped himself. He took a cold breath and said, "Get on."


    After preparing two carriages, Xi Wan Feng and his sister rode on board, Xi Jiu Er took one carriage and glanced at the red silk that was hung on his carriage. Suddenly, he remembered that when he went to look for Sun Kong Ming, it was also because the carriage was marked. Looking at Xi Wan Feng''s carriage again, there was no red silk ¡­


    Other than the red silk, Xi Jiu Er''s carriage was about the same color as Xi Wan Feng''s carriage, there was nothing strange about it! Carrying Liu Shui up to the carriage, Liu Shui said softly: "Miss, this coachman looks at you with surprise."


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Liu Shui, this girl, liked to wander around everyday when he had nothing better to do. He knew even more people in the house than his, his master. She said that he was most likely not from his family. There was only one carriage ¡ª the Old Madame, one for Xi Hong Sheng, one for, one for Xi Wan Rong and one for Xi Wan Feng. Other than the First Lady, there was only one other carriage for the other Madame s. As a result, Xi Jiu Er had some impression of the carriage driver.


    Nothing happened along the way, but Xi Jiu Er could not relax, it was still the last part of the show. Xi Wan Feng got off the carriage, and Xi Mao happily followed the servant out to play, agreed to come looking for Xi Wan Feng in an hour.


    Xi Wan Feng turned his head and stared at Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er covered his mouth as he said, "Big sister, why are you looking at little sister like that? The expression in your eyes is really scary. As he spoke, he pretended to tremble in fear.


    Xi Wan Feng said angrily: "Who are you showing this to? "Who did this to you?!"


    "Of course I''m going to be an older sister." Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed, "Jiu Er thought that sister intended to never go out again for the rest of her life!" After which, he revealed a complacent smile.


    Xi Wan Feng felt that Xi Jiu Er was truly a capable person, with just a few casual words, she was able to make herself very angry.


    "What is it? Elder sister, are you going to hit me? Beat him up, beat him up, let everyone see the great Xi Family beating his own sister in public. If this gets out, I think my sister''s reputation will be bad, right? " Xi Jiu Er raised his eyebrows, looking like a thugs that could only say, "Come and fight, if you have the guts come and fight, come and fight"! Xi Wan Feng was so angry that his teeth itched.


    Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er grabbed onto Xi Wan Feng''s hand, there was nothing Xi Wan Feng could do, she was wondering if Xi Jiu Er had taken some medicine today. She suddenly saw Xi Jiu Er''s hand hit her face with a "pa" sound, she was stunned, and was unable to react.


    Thus, it was all about Xi Jiu Er''s vivid acting. Xi Jiu Er let out a cry and then fell to the ground. Liu Shui''s loud voice began to sound angry: "Great Miss, what are you doing? How could our Miss offend you? Miss, are you alright? Why did you go to the Great Miss to persuade him to do this?


    "You, you two bastards." Xi Wan Feng trembled in anger when he heard the duo, "Liu Shui, you lowly slave master, where did you get the right to interrupt? "You actually twisted the truth. Let''s see if I don''t beat you to death today."


    "Elder sister ¡­" This maid is only speaking the truth. You want to take her life? How can you be so cruel? It''s all my fault. If you want to hit me, just hit me. " As Xi Jiu Er said this, she covered her face and started crying, but in her heart, she was secretly happy.


    "Miss... You are the granddaughter of the Wei Guogong, the direct descendant of eight hundred people. Even though the Great Miss is also the direct descendant, the First Lady is after all still the son of an ordinary wife. " Liu Shui''s words could be described as poisonous. The people who had come to join in the fun did not recognize them, but now they did.


    "Xi Family? Isn''t it first talented girl? "


    "What first talented girl, they''re just stealing my sister''s poems ¡­"


    "It can''t be ¡­" "It doesn''t look like it ¡­"


    "This is what it means to know a person''s face but not their heart. Don''t you see that you''ve forced your own sister to such a state? What else can you not do?"


    "I just heard them say that they wanted Great Miss Xi to pray for First Lady''s blessings. Great Miss Xi did not agree ¡­ "She really has no conscience. She actually doesn''t pray for his own mother!"


    "Of course!"


    The surrounding people''s discussions had undoubtedly made Xi Wan Feng become the daughter of a great villain. Xi Wan Feng had a feeling that nothing could be said and he opened his mouth to say that it wasn''t like that ¡­ However, when they looked at themselves with eyes filled with disgust, they immediately came up with a countermeasure.


    "It''s all elder sister''s fault, how could I not pray for mother''s blessings? It''s just that you, as a servant, have no rules. In the future, you must not continue to protect your servant girls. Don''t worry about losing face for your own people, don''t embarrass Xi Mansion. " Xi Wan Feng sighed and immediately apologized in a warm voice. He even went up to wipe Xi Jiu Er''s tears.


    Why would Xi Jiu Er allow her to touch him? She immediately took a step back and shouted, "Why are you so shrewd, maid? I already told you to think about it later. You must have provoked the Great Miss, right? Despite knowing that the Great Miss was in a bad mood, you still caused trouble for him. "If elder sister hadn''t forgiven you today, I would not have let you off."


    "Yes, it was Servant''s fault. Great Miss, Servant is wrong, Servant will dare to do it again in the future, you better not beat Servant to death. " Liu Shui had always been an honest and straightforward person, but now that he was so scared, the audience started to guess that Xi Wan Feng was probably a strong person who killed people easily.


    Xi Wan Feng felt a lump in her chest. She opened her mouth wanting to exhale so that everything would go smoothly, but she was afraid that she would start cursing again. Thus, he gave a fake smile and said, "Let''s go pray for mother''s blessings."


    "Yes." As she stood behind Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er seemed to sigh helplessly. "Let''s go, don''t make Big Sis angry again."


    "Yes." Liu Shui lowered his head and smiled.


    They were precisely Prince Xian Mu Qiu Shui and His Majesty Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge today. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed and said, "This Xi Jiu Er has enmity with Xi Wan Feng."


    How could Mu Qiu Shui not see through it? From the very first moment she saw Xi Jiu Er, she could already see the hatred in his eyes. She hated Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng, as if she hated everyone!


    "This Xi Jiu Er is really interesting." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge smiled slightly, and seeing the slight change in Mu Qiu Shui''s expression, he laughed: "Don''t worry, we will definitely not snatch what you have your eyes on."


    Is that so? Mu Qiu Shui felt that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was becoming more and more curious about Xi Jiu Er, this was not a good thing!

 C125

    This was not a good omen. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was rarely interested in women, so when he asked Xi Jiu Er about it, he was sure that she was interested in him.


    Mu Qiu Shui sighed, good women were like good men, as long as they were good, they would not be submerged, intelligent people would catch and understand! No... He had to quickly marry this woman home and take advantage of the fact that Xi Mansion had not yet lost. He knew that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had thought of something, it was just that he did not find any evidence at all.


    Upon reaching the great hall, Xi Wan Feng and Xi Jiu Er knelt on the prayer mats. Xi Wan Feng spoke to the buddhist lord who was smiling faintly in front of him: "Disciple Xi Wan Feng hopes that the Buddha can protect our family and our family, and help us obtain everything we desire." With that, he started to kowtow. Buddha Lord, this family did not include Xi Jiu Er, they only hoped that she would die soon, so long as Xi Jiu Er died and her disciple is willing to give you a body made of gold.


    Looking at Xi Wan Feng, he knew that she must have been muttering in her heart just to let him die early. When Xi Wan Feng finished and kowtowing, he noticed the sincere look on Xi Jiu Er''s face and could not help but ask: "What did you beg for?"


    Xi Jiu Er grinned: "I''m just asking for peace of mind."


    Xi Wan Feng almost spurted a mouthful of blood out. How could she feel at ease like this? Hmph, Xi Wan Feng snorted, and the two of them started chanting. To pray for the blessings of one''s loved ones, one would have to recite it ninety-eight times to appear sincere. Xi Jiu Er prayed for the blessings of his dead mother, but Xi Wan Feng''s mind was unsettled.


    The sun was about to set over the horizon after the 81st meeting, so they definitely couldn''t go back. They were all young misses, so if something happened to them, their reputation would be gone for the rest of their lives. Xiao Sha Mi arranged for two people to stay, but strangely, Xi Wan Feng''s room was further away, making him suspicious.


    At night, Liu Shui slept on the floor and asked: "Miss, what kind of tricks do you think Miss Feng is playing? The journey was peaceful and calm, and nothing happened at all. Could it be that we overthought things? "


    Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly: "We''ll just have to try our best to avoid this. This Xi Wan Feng is a bit more composed now, he might be scheming against us on the way back, in any case, I can''t be wrong." Xi Wan Feng was extremely vicious, even more so than her mother. She would never do unnecessary things, so she naturally had her own reasons.


    Not only must first talented girl be filled with scripture, she must also be filled with poison.


    Deep into the night, Xi Jiu Er opened her eyes and smiled: "Liu Shui, if you go take a look at Xi Wan Feng''s room now, you will definitely receive a great harvest."


    Liu Shui slept very little. Once Xi Jiu Er said that, sshe immediately jumped up and laughed: "Servant is just waiting for your words." Thus, he leaped out of the house for the rest of his life! He returned after around fifteen minutes, and said in a low voice: "Miss is intelligent, and your guess is not wrong. Miss Feng''s house is bustling with noise and excitement."


    "Oh?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows and laughed: "What''s going on?"


    "Miss Feng sent people to set up an ambush on our journey after all, to push our carriage down the mountain ¡­ to create the illusion of an accident. " Liu Shui puffed: "This poison is really poisonous."


    Xi Jiu Er seemed to have already thought that Xi Wan Feng was going to take his life this time, it was just that she never thought that Xi Wan Feng would do it in such a manner! She then asked Liu Shui, "What else did you hear?"


    Liu Shui shook his head: "Nothing!"


    Xi Jiu Er muttered to herself for a moment before commanding, "Go and find a way to get the red silk on our carriage to fit Xi Wan Feng''s carriage tomorrow!"


    "Yes." Liu Shui felt that tomorrow''s mission was very important, it was related to his own life and he couldn''t be careless at all.


    did not seem to have woken up from his sleep. Xi Wan Feng probably thought that it was because he was busy with other things and had not gotten a good night''s sleep due to the bruises. However, Xi Jiu Er was in high spirits, not to mention sleeping soundly in the space, she even played with Qiu Qiu for a while. Qiu Qiu told her that it wouldn''t be long before it would be attached to an animal, which made Xi Jiu Er very happy.


    Liu Shui whispered: "Miss, Servant will go out for a while."


    "Be careful." Xi Jiu Er warned.


    "Right." Liu Shui laughed and got out of the carriage.


    The way back was much slower than the way they came. Furthermore, the road was wrong, so Xi Jiu Er pretended not to know anything. She was still worried that she would run into those opponents from last time. If that was the case, Liu Shui would be the only one to protect him ¡­ Thinking that Liu Shui had finished, he laughed and said: "Done."


    "Yes, our Liu Shui is the most capable." When Xi Jiu Er praised her, Liu Shui smiled naively in embarrassment. Time passed slowly, and the journey was calm and peaceful. This was precisely the reason why the storm was even fiercer.


    Suddenly ¨C there was finally movement ahead ¡­ Xi Jiu Er lifted the curtain and saw that Xi Wan Feng''s carriage was in front of him causing an uproar, the hillside was covered with big rocks, the horses ahead of them were startled, and even their own horses were startled too!


    "Hiss ¡ª"


    Faintly, Xi Wan Feng''s and Xi Mao''s voices could be heard coming from the carriage, "Ah, help, help ¡­"


    "Bastard, it''s not us, it''s that bitch Xi Jiu Er ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was so angry that she began to curse loudly. The two of them got off the carriage, and after realizing that Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui were standing far away, she shouted, "What are you two standing around for? "Ah, little brother."


    The stones at the top of the mountain also smashed towards Xi Mao unerringly ¡­ Xi Mao screamed and fainted. Xi Wan Feng pulled Xi Mao and planned to walk towards Xi Jiu Er, but unfortunately... She slipped and fell to the ground.


    "Xi Jiu Er you slut, what are you still standing there for ¡­" Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was not moving, she started to curse. She scolded happily, Xi Jiu Er smiled even more: "My dear sister, this is called eating your own food, it''s not that I don''t want to save you, it''s just that you deserve it."


    "Xi Jiu Er, you slut!" Xi Wan Feng scolded, he dragged Xi Mao and avoided the big rocks with much difficulty, while trembling in fear. This road is unstable after being washed away by the rain... Especially this part of the road!


    Suddenly, he moved his hand and grabbed Xi Jiu Er. This move of his caused even Liu Shui to not notice, and with a swing of his hand, Liu Shui actually smashed to the side of the cliff. Xi Wan Feng screamed out loud in fear.


    "Save me ¡­" "Save me ¡­" Xi Wan Feng shouted.


    Actually the cliff is not deep, Xi Jiu Er slowly walked to Xi Wan Feng and squatted down: "Tell me, I pushed you and Xi Mao down, would you be dead?"


    "I was wrong, Jiu Er, please save my life ¡­" Xi Wan Feng began to apologize in a low voice. Just as Xi Jiu Er was about to get up and grab her hands and feet, she suddenly heard Xi Wan Feng shout out, "Bitch, go and die."


    Xi Jiu Er spun in the air and grabbed Xi Wan Feng. Even if she died, she would bring him down with her. Xi Wan Feng "AHH" cried out in surprise. From the top of the cliff, he suddenly heard Liu Shui''s voice, "AHH ¡ª ¡ª ¡ª Miss ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er watched as Xi Wan Feng rolled down the cliff like a ball. But it was the same for her. Just as she was about to enter the space, her vision blurred, and what she saw was the face of a demon: Mu Qiu Shui.


    She was held in the air by Mu Qiu Shui, who had wrapped his whip around the tree... How familiar all of this felt! Xi Jiu Er was stunned: "You, why are you here?"


    Mu Qiu Shui grinned: "Unfortunately, I came following my beloved lady."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face darkened. This guy''s words are always very fake and real, can''t she speak properly? Seeing Xi Jiu Er not saying a word, Mu Qiu Shui grinned: "Do you think this scene is very familiar?"


    Xi Jiu Er sighed, "Let''s think of a way to descend from the halfway point of the mountain."


    "I have a way, but I need you to close your eyes and hug me tightly ¡­" "Aiya, why are you so obedient?" Just as Mu Qiu Shui finished speaking, he realized that Xi Jiu Er was grabbing onto him tightly.


    "Cut the crap, hurry up." Xi Jiu Er buried her head in Mu Qiu Shui''s embrace! What happened next, Xi Jiu Er did not know at all. She only felt her body rolling a few times before landing safely on the ground.


    "Well? Were you hurt by the fall? " Mu Qiu Shui asked in concern.


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head: "I''m fine? But you, how are you? "


    "I''m fine." Xi Jiu Er looked around, hoping to find Xi Wan Feng''s shadow, but he failed. In his mind, he quickly thought of a few words, if Xi Wan Feng really died, what would happen? Naturally, this was what she liked to see, but she was unwilling. Letting her die just like that seemed to be letting her off easy.


    "Woo woo ¡­" A painful moan came from not far away. This voice came from Xi Wan Feng, who walked over to see that the miserable looking Xi Wan Feng was still alive. Xi Jiu Er smiled and instructed: "Prince Xian, I''ll have to trouble you with something."


    Mu Qiu Shui grinned: "What is it?"


    "I ask Prince Xian to help this little girl''s elder sister return to the manor ¡­" Xi Jiu Er grinned, with her current eyesight, she could conclude that Xi Wan Feng''s face was already ruined, and to let him live with that disfigured face, how interesting.


    Prince Xian laughed happily: "Alright, it''s nothing much." Prince Xian''s smile suddenly froze, and he smeared blood on the ground. Xi Jiu Er was startled: "You''re injured? Internal injury? "


    Prince Xian elegantly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and laughed: "Nothing much, Xi Jiu Er, I want to ask you something, I''ll marry you, will you marry me?"


    Everything was quiet. Xi Jiu Er could see the anticipation, nervousness, unease, and many other emotions in the eyes of the Prince Xian. It was as if she could hear her own heart beating over and over again. The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched as she thought of her own plan. "Prince Xian misloved me, I plan to never marry."


    "You, what did you say?" Mu Qiu Shui felt that he had shamed himself to the point of losing face. In this life, he had dared to say those words, in exchange for the other party not marrying! Was there a mistake? When was his Prince Xian so terrible?

 C126

    Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui returned a step later than Xi Wan Feng, and at the same time, the courtyard of the First Lady rang with the ear-piercing screams of women. The screams were not from our First Lady, but from, who was carried back to the Xi Mansion.


    She didn''t care about her image at all as she kneeled down in the yard and looked around. She didn''t expect that something like this would happen after such a long time. Her children were like dead people who had lost their life. She wanted to scream, but she couldn''t ¡­ She could only dig her nails into her palms.


    "My children ¡­" Her head hurt and her chest felt so depressed that she felt like she was about to vomit blood. She quickly ordered people to bring Xi Wan Feng and Xi Mao back, and then instructed the doctors, causing her body to sway a little. If there wasn''t Wang Ma supporting her, she would have fallen down.


    "mother ¡ª ¡ª mother, you must avenge your daughter and brother! It was Xi Jiu Er, it was Xi Jiu Er who harmed me ¡­ It''s her ¡­ mother... " At this time, Xi Wan Feng slowly woke up, his expression looking like a madman, his eyes red as he stared at First Lady, screaming his lungs out, and everyone heard him.


    First Lady endured the fire in his heart and said: "Rest well. Don''t worry, mother will definitely avenge you. With that, she got others to serve him well. Today, she was going to find Xi Jiu Er, that slut, to vent her anger.


    "Where is Xi Jiu Er now?" First Lady asked with a darkened face.


    "She''s back in her yard." Wang Ma immediately said.


    "Good, very good!" First Lady gritted his teeth: "If I don''t kill her this time, no one can protect her!" Along the way, they saw that the First Lady had retreated far out of fear. They had already heard that the Great Miss and the Little Young Master had rolled down the hill, and there seemed to be many fractures and the Great Miss was even disfigured.


    It was no wonder that First Lady was so angry. First Lady had high hopes for his three children. It seemed like the reason he went to find Miss in anger was to interrogate him.


    "First Lady, you have to take care of your health. Wang Ma looked at First Lady''s gloomy face and immediately consoled him. First Lady had not recovered from his illness yet, they should not have a relapse.


    "Take care? My children are already like this, and you still want me to take care of myself? Today, I will dismember Xi Jiu Er''s body into five pieces to vent my hatred. " First Lady''s eyes were completely red, as if she was about to bleed. Wang Ma thought that Xi Jiu Er had gone overboard this time ¡­ First Lady was in a better position than her when she was infuriated.


    First Lady brought her servants to see Xi Jiu Er, and just as the servant at the door was about to be hit in the heart by her palm, the servant girl was knocked to the ground. First Lady ordered: "All of you servants that don''t understand the rules, teach me a lesson."


    "Yes." The women immediately rolled up their sleeves and began to beat anyone they saw.


    "First Lady, what are you doing? Have they come to make trouble for themselves? " Raising the curtain to reveal that it was Third Wife, Third Wife had given birth to another son. Furthermore, because of Yan Er''s matter, Xi Hong Sheng felt a little guilty towards the Third Wife. In short, the Third Wife was undoubtedly the Palace Mistress.


    "Why are you here?" First Lady did not expect Third Wife to be here, but when he thought about it, he realized that it was definitely Xi Jiu Er who called for help to stall him.


    "Why am I not here? Jiu Er''s body is covered in wounds, naturally, I am in charge of the Xi Mansion so I have to ask him about this, so I can go back and tell the old Madame about this. " Third Wife raised the corner of her mouth and laughed coldly: "Since First Lady is here, let me ask, is Miss Feng''s little Young Master alright? It was all because the carriage flipped over, but the body was injured. "


    How could Third Wife not know about Xi Wan Feng and his situation? It was obvious that they were here to pick up First Lady''s scar when First Lady finally breathed heavily. His voice turned cold and angry: "Third Wife, you have nothing to do here, as mother''s man, I''m here to teach my daughter a lesson, if you know what''s good for you then scram."


    "mother ¡­" Xi Jiu Er appeared behind Third Wife and smiled faintly: "How are Big Sister Feng and little brother? mother is really something, why aren''t you managing it, what if something bad happens? I can see that the injuries of Big Sister Feng and little brother are not light, if I do not treat them quickly, I am afraid that my life is not safe, I am afraid I will become crippled. "


    When First Lady saw that Xi Jiu Er wanted to kill her to vent his anger, and heard her say that, if she could hold back his anger any longer, he would be a saint. She shouted, "You lowly bastard, see how I will deal with you today!" With that, she prepared to capture Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er dodged the attack.


    "mother, I know you are worried about Big Sister Feng and Little Brother, but why did you hit me? Jiu Er did not want to do that, it was all because of Big Sister Feng''s insistence on leaving that she met with bandits, is it my fault? " Xi Jiu Er started to play a game of Concealment with the First Lady.


    First Lady was infuriated not being able to catch her, and seeing her speaking with a mischievous smile, how could she bear it? Look, Xi Jiu Er was still jumping around, her own children were lying motionlessly, she was sad!


    "mother, what did my daughter do to make you so angry?" At a place where no one else could see, Xi Jiu Er mischievously winked at First Lady: "mother, your health is not good, you better not be angry, it''s bad for your body, if you''re angry, Big Sister Feng and the rest will be hurt."


    First Lady was burning with anger, he scolded: "You little bitch, you know what you have done the best, do you need anyone else to remind you? Normally, I would just turn a blind eye to your petty tricks, but you actually did that. You almost caused Feng''er and Mao''er to die without a burial ground. It wouldn''t be an exaggeration to kill you just like that. Xi Family will definitely not be able to tolerate a crazy person like you. "


    "mother, you kept saying that I was the one who did it, I just wanted to ask if mother can give me any proof?" Xi Jiu Er replied firmly: "If mother does not have any evidence, then why would she accuse her daughter wrongly?"


    Xi Jiu Er raised her sleeves, her white and tender skin was full of bruises and blood. Everyone had already eaten, yet First Lady only laughed coldly and said: "Can you see your Big Sister Feng ¡­" She wanted to say something, but in the end she didn''t say anything. She grabbed Xi Jiu Er and prepared to hit him, but she was flung away by the Third Wife.


    "First Lady, what are you doing? Have you forgotten that this is the Xi Family? I am in charge of managing the Xi Mansion now, so you can''t do anything. If you don''t have the evidence, don''t even think about touching Miss. " The Third Wife sneered.


    "You are in charge of the Xi Family? It''s just me letting you win, do you really think that the Xi Family will fall into your hands? Stop daydreaming! No one can stop me today! " First Lady acted like she was crazy, but Third Wife paid no attention to her, and only said: "Hmph, Jiu Er''s entire body is covered with wounds, your Great Miss and Little Young Master are not in much better shape, she is just lucky, but First Lady has pushed all the blame to Miss, if First Lady is unable to produce any evidence today, I will go and cause trouble at Old Madame''s place."


    "Hehehe ¡­" First Lady laughed strangely a few times. "Alright, don''t think that I don''t know you and that bitch Xi Jiu Er who are in cahoots with each other, I won''t let you go today."


    "mother, your daughter didn''t do anything. If you don''t believe me, you can go investigate. I know that I am not the biological daughter of mother, and the favoritism of mother is understandable, but why would she treat her daughter this way? Why did he have to wrongly accuse his daughter? His daughter had quickly come to pay her respects to the mother, but in the end, she ended up like this ¡­ "Sob, sob, sob ¡­" Xi Jiu Er cried out loud. Her heart was torn apart, the Third Wife sighed. "Poor Miss ¡­"


    First Lady held his breath, his face was flushed red from anger, and now Xi Jiu Er was acting obedient again.


    "First Lady, if you want to punish Miss, then please come here and give us some evidence. If there is no evidence, then don''t wrongly accuse people! Miss Jiu Er... Tell me what it is all about! " Third Wife frowned.


    Big Sister Feng said that it would be better if we went to the temple to pray. She expected that it would be raining heavily on the way back, so when I looked back, Big Sister Feng and my little brother were nowhere to be seen, so I turned around to look for them, but I could not find them ¡­ "Since I was worried that the carriage wouldn''t break, I decided to find a farmer to stay for the night. When the day came, I took an oxcart back with me." Xi Jiu Er cried.


    First Lady knew what her daughter was plotting. Just now, she was only so focused on getting angry that she didn''t even ask Xi Wan Feng what happened when he turned around. Right now, she did not know if Xi Jiu Er was telling the truth or not.


    The Third Wife held onto the kernels and cried, "Poor Jiu Er."


    What a pity, the First Lady scolded: "This matter definitely has something to do with you, how can I raise an ingrate like you. You really should be cut into pieces."


    Even if you scold me, I''ll scold you too! Xi Jiu Er also cried: "mother has wronged me again, I really don''t know what mother is saying. When have I ever harmed Big Sister Feng and little brother? What happened to them? Your daughter only found out after returning to the manor, why must you pin it on me? I''m not the culprit, so we can''t let him get away with it ¡­ As long as the culprit was captured, he would definitely be able to restore his daughter''s innocence ¡­ mother, ah, mother ¡­ "


    He looked at the First Lady, whose face had gone stiff from the words'' mother '', and found it funny. Then he said, "Miss Jiu Er, you really don''t know this, but all those servants you just came back to talk about were just skin and bones. Miss Feng and the little Young Master fell down from the mountain, and when they were carried back ¡­ Your Big Sister Feng is probably going to ruin her face ¡­ Little Young Master is also severely injured. "

 C127

    The First Lady is crazy? 2


    "What, Big Sister Feng and little brother fell down from the mountain? Is it serious? " Xi Jiu Er''s face changed when she heard it, the business sounded extremely urgent. To outsiders, her actions and actions were like Xi Wan Feng''s own sister, the First Lady was confused and confused by her series of questions.


    "You little b * tch, you''re still spouting nonsense at a time like this? You''re obviously just looking for someone to mess with and yet you refuse to admit it, just watch me beat you to death today." With that, First Lady planned to slap Xi Jiu Er in the face. He hoped that Xi Jiu Er would kill him with one slap.


    Liu Shui, who was beside Xi Jiu Er, lightly pulled her away. First Lady missed his and was immediately enraged: "Men, tie this bitch up for me. I will take care of her today!"


    Third Wife frowned as he stood in front of First Lady and asked: "First Lady, what are you doing?! Miss Feng and Little Young Master are still there waiting, yet you dare to act so rashly! Miss thought that you are an elder, so he didn''t bother to bicker with you. He wanted you to wrongly accuse her again and again, but I couldn''t bear to watch any further. "


    Third Wife said: Men, go invite the old Madame over, I will have the old Madame judge today, First Lady came to find trouble with Miss for no reason, what a great prestige, what a great presence!


    There were already people who were quick-witted enough to go find the old Madame. Now that she had lost Xi Hong Sheng''s favor, the old Madame''s treatment of her was no longer as great as before. This was an excellent opportunity for the Third Wife. If she were to ask about it, what would a normal wife like a shrewish wife look like? It must be embarrassing.


    At the same time, Third Wife gave the servant a look, and the servant immediately went to look for Xi Hong Sheng.


    "You slut, you''re in the same group as us. You colluded together to kill us. Feng''er and Mao''er must have been killed by you." First Lady let out a scream and turned around to attack Third Wife.


    "First Lady, what nonsense are you spouting? I am only a Yue Zi, how can I have the effort to harm you? Can you stop slandering others? You slandered Miss Jiu Er and now you want to slander me? Could it be that if you don''t like him, she can be the culprit? " Third Wife roared, she glared at First Lady, but turned back to look at Xi Jiu Er from the corner of her eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er smirked and gave a signal. As long as there were no major problems, she would do as she pleased. Third Wife was not a stupid person, she immediately thought of the fact that there was Wei Guogong supporting him from behind! They might as well take advantage of the fact that Old Madame and Xi Hong Sheng were not around to take care of him.


    First Lady was stunned after receiving that slap, and when she regained her senses, she was slapped once again by Third Wife. She immediately shouted, "You bitch, you actually dare hit me! I''m the Xi Family''s matriarch, and you''re just the concubinage!" As he spoke, he brandished his claws and grabbed at the Third Wife.


    "First Lady, what I have done is good for you. Look at what has happened!" Third Wife took a glance at the commotion outside. The person who arrived at this speed was most likely the old Madame, so he immediately said, "First Lady, how can you say that? You are the Xi Family''s Matriarch, but there are still the Old Madame in the Xi Family. Even if you think that all of this was caused by Jiu Er, you have to report it to the Old Madame and let him decide what to do. "


    When Xi Jiu Er saw the direction of Third Wife''s attack change, he immediately echoed: "mother, your daughter was wrongly accused. Your daughter wants to look for Grandmother, I believe that Grandmother will give you justice!"


    "Pfft, I am the Xi Family''s matriarch, what kind of person is an old woman like her?" First Lady was so angry that she fainted, her mouth started to speak without restraint, but when she saw that Xi Jiu Er and the other three were just around the corner, she was unable to move them even the slightest bit, worried her to death.


    At this time, the old Madame had already entered the courtyard, it was just that the crowd was all inside.


    Xi Jiu Er screamed: "mother, you actually dare say that about Grandmother, are you crazy?"


    "Bitch, I''ll kill you today!" First Lady looked to be truly a madman with a sinister expression and messy clothes. The two handprints on his face were especially eye-catching as he pounced towards Xi Jiu Er with a bared teeth.


    "Grandmother ¡ª Me!" Xi Jiu Er then ran towards the old Madame, who instinctively followed him, and did not even hear what Xi Jiu Er had shouted. She already knew that the old Madame had shouted: "Impudent!" Then, the First Lady was slapped again.


    First Lady looked at the Old Madame in a daze, as if he was curious about why the Old Madame was here. Xi Jiu Er seized the opportunity before she could regain her senses and said loudly: "Grandmother, mother has gone mad, she has gone mad."


    "I''m not crazy!" First Lady immediately woke up. He glared at Xi Jiu Er venomously, then turned his head and cried at the old Madame, "Old Madame, you have to avenge me. Feng''er and Mao''er ¡­ They... "They ¡­" As he spoke, he covered his face and cried.


    The old Madame also knew what was going on. She really liked these two children and wanted mother of joy to investigate what was going on. She never expected that Prince Xian would come, and he chatted with her alone for a while, which basically meant that he met Xi Wan Rong''s carriage. Xi Jiu Er said that Xi Wan Feng and Xi Mao were lost, so they went to find them.


    However, he coincidentally saw Xi Wan Feng''s and Xi Mao''s carriage rolling down the mountain, so he immediately went down to look for them. Because the Prince Xian and Xi Wan Rong were both unmarried, Xi Jiu Er didn''t tell the truth because he wanted to avoid suspicion. The old Madame nodded, the other party had no enmity with Xi Wan Feng and his group, they would not want to harm them. It was naturally to believe the words of the Prince Xian.


    "I already know about their situation. This matter can''t be blamed on Jiu Er, it was all an accident!" The grief of the old Madame had already arrived. When First Lady saw that the old Madame was actually helping Xi Jiu Er, he was immediately left empty-handed. "Old Madame, how can you speak up for Xi Jiu Er? "She lied to you. She was the one who harmed Feng''er and Mao''er ¡­"


    "Bastard! Do you think I''m as stupid as you?!" The old Madame saw that her daughter-in-law was not only screaming at her but also suspecting her. No, to be sure, she would only blame herself.


    Xi Jiu Er said in a low voice: "Grandmother, Jiu Er is so scared, mother seems to have gone crazy ¡­"


    Crazy? First Lady scolded: "Little bitch, what nonsense are you spouting, you''re the one who has gone crazy!"


    The old Madame frowned. The current First Lady was not still the same as before, she was clearly a shrew. He did not have the slightest bit of arrogance as the Xi Family''s matriarch as he said unhappily, "Men, send the First Lady back."


    "Old Madame... "You have to stand up for Feng''er and Mao''er!" First Lady cried, struggling free of his servants'' hands and shouting: "What are you doing, let go."


    "mother, your daughter knows that the matters regarding Big Sister Feng and little brother are making you very sad. Don''t worry, we will find the best doctors for them and they will definitely cure her." Xi Jiu Er softly spat out two words, "Serves you right."


    First Lady was stunned. Serves you right? What was deserved? Did she deserve it, or did Feng''er and Mao''er deserve it? Did that mean she knew Feng Er''s plan? Yes, since she knew that this was Feng Er''s plan, it wasn''t impossible for her to counterattack.


    "It really is you. Xi Jiu Er, I want to kill you today ¡­ "I''m going to kill you ¡­" The First Lady was completely unable to bear the truth, and thought about what would happen to her two most outstanding daughters? Everything was because of Xi Jiu Er!


    The First Lady was furious, he ran over to grab Xi Jiu Er, wanting to kill this disaster for him was the only thought in his mind! Xi Jiu Er slipped behind the old Madame, who could not stop her legs and grabbed onto the old Madame''s neck ¡­


    The scene was completely silent...


    "What are you doing? Why aren''t you letting go of mother!" Xi Hong Sheng''s appearance was really good. Xi Jiu Er felt like Little Flower was about to bloom on her face, but she couldn''t laugh, she couldn''t laugh too, so she could only scream: "Father, mother is crazy!"


    "I, I''m not crazy ¡­ "This, this was an accident ¡­" First Lady''s face turned ugly, she was so shocked that she forgot to take her hand off Old Madame''s neck. The mother of joy beside the old Madame immediately pushed him away in fear. The old Madame trembled in fear, not knowing if he was angry or not.


    "You, you actually want to strangle me to death!" Old Madame was already so old, but she still cherished her life a lot. She grabbed mother of joy''s hand and pulled him far away, "You''re crazy!"


    First Lady suddenly said, "I''m not crazy, this, this is an accident. I don''t have that intention at all, I don''t have that intention at all!"


    No matter how First Lady tried to defend himself, all of this was true, especially when Xi Hong Sheng saw it, and when the old Madame saw it, he could not lie! She was terrified and anxious. It was as if she had fallen into an enormous whirlpool, leaving her at a loss for what to do.


    "mother, we will find the best doctor to treat your illness!" Xi Jiu Er said weakly.


    These words were like thunder, the First Lady screamed: "I''m not crazy, I''m not crazy!" What''s the difference between her and a crazy woman like this? Old Madame completely hated this daughter-in-law. Who would like a daughter-in-law who intended to strangle him to death? Xi Hong Sheng didn''t have a good impression of the First Lady anymore.


    "Men, lock First Lady back into the courtyard. Without my permission, no one is allowed to take even half a step out!" Xi Hong Sheng looked at First Lady with incomparable disgust. First Lady shook his head. "Don''t... Don''t... "I''m not crazy ¡­"


    The Wang Ma beside him almost thought that First Lady had gone mad as well. It was because First Lady was too crazy today, the difference between him and the normally gentle and steady First Lady was like heaven and earth!


    "What are you all still standing there for? Quickly bring them away." Xi Hong Sheng said impatiently. Other than Xi Jiu Er, her daughters all had bad weather, and the eldest son, Xi Mao, had met with such a misfortune.


    No, it was all the First Lady''s fault, she did not teach her child well, and such a thing happened! It was all her! When he thought of this, Xi Hong Sheng wanted to go up and slap her twice, and ask her: Look at what you have taught me!


    "Wuu ¡­ wuu ¡­" Master... Old Madame... All of these were from Xi Jiu Er ¡­ It was all her ¡­ "I am innocent ¡­" First Lady cried, hoping for some sympathy.

 C128

    The First Lady is crazy? 3


    The First Lady felt very carefree in his heart, but on the surface, he looked unsatisfied as he pulled Xi Jiu Er over and whispered, "Poor Miss, old Madame, all of you take a look at him. Miss is already injured all over, and First Lady has wrongly accused him for nothing.


    "Jiu Er is not pitiful. It''s understandable for mother to love her son so much and do such a thing." Xi Jiu Er said magnanimously, with a look of being wronged, making people''s hearts ache.


    "Hmph, aren''t you her daughter as well? Normally, when she called you ''Jiu Er'', I thought that she would treat you well. Third Wife sighed.


    "The mother must be crazy." Xi Jiu Er shuddered in fear when she thought of First Lady, "mother, mother must be crazy ¡­"


    When Third Wife felt that Xi Jiu Er did not leave any traces for him to pinch, her mind suddenly woke up. That''s right, First Lady was'' crazy '', even if she wasn''t, she would still have been driven crazy. She was the boss of this Xi Mansion now, if she didn''t attack now, how long would it take for her to go crazy?


    "Old Madame, look at how First Lady is, should we invite a doctor over to take a look?" The Third Wife said softly. In the eyes of the old Madame, First Lady was not too far off from madness. Otherwise, why would her usually cautious daughter-in-law do such a heinous act today? Other than going crazy, there was really no other way to explain it.


    "That''s not good ¡­" If news of mother going crazy spread out ¡­ "I''m afraid ¡­" Xi Jiu Er started to say something crazily, and had already determined that First Lady was crazy. This gave Xi Hong Sheng and the old Madame an invisible hint: First Lady was actually crazy.


    Xi Hong Sheng liked the person who had the most face, so he said: "Since that''s the case, let the family''s doctor come and take a look." The doctors in the mansion were different from the doctors outside. One of them was good at keeping secrets, while the other one was talkative!


    Xi Jiu Er pretended to be quiet and said: "Father, daughter has a doctor in heart-nourishing hall, her medical skills are also excellent, why not let him have a look?"


    The doctors in heart-nourishing hall were similar to royal doctors, naturally, they could not ask for help, Xi Hong Sheng nodded his head: "Alright, we will do as Jiu Er says."


    "Grandmother suffered from a fright today, when the doctor arrives, Jiu Er will ask the doctor to prepare a set of Spirit Calming Medicine for Grandmother to consume." Xi Jiu Er obediently allowed the old Madame to enjoy it, no, very much. The old Madame immediately replied benevolently, "Jiu Er has thought this through thoroughly. Sigh, I am also tired of this torture, let me handle it. "Let''s go!"


    "Your son will send you to mother." Xi Hong Sheng held the old Madame''s hand and slowly walked out of the courtyard. After the two of them left, the gentle Third Wife stared at the subordinates of the First Lady and spoke coldly: "You dog servants, you actually beat up Miss''s servants, and smashed her courtyard. Men, come ¨C everyone dragged their feet and beat her twenty times."


    Smash the yard? Damn it, they didn''t do it, okay? They did it, okay? How did Jiu Er''s yard look like it had been smashed? It''s all Third Wife''s nonsense, okay?


    "What are you still standing there for? Can''t you hear me hitting twenty big boards?" Third Wife shouted.


    The subordinates of First Lady were dragging all the people down, and what followed was the wailing and begging of ghosts and howling of wolves. Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er turned a deaf ear and entered the room, there were some things that needed to be agreed upon between the two of them!


    "Miss Jiu Er, was what you said true?" Meaning to ask Xi Jiu Er if she had a plan?


    has the love and love of your father and Grandmother, and now that you are the master, it is better for Third Wife to go to the temple and pray for mother, because that way, you can be magnanimous. " Xi Jiu Er laughed and said.


    Third Wife''s heart skipped a beat. Did Xi Jiu Er mean that she was going to do it herself? He then agreed: "Hmm, Miss Jiu Er is right. First Lady is making me restless, I should go to the temple to pray for First Lady''s blessings. I hope she recovers quickly and goes insane as soon as possible!"


    Pfft, Xi Jiu Er said while nodding and trying to hold back her laughter: "Yeah, I hope she''ll be fine as soon as possible! I am also a good sister who cares about big sister. Now that big sister and little brother are both in trouble, I should properly go and see them.


    "Miss Jiu Er values kinship the most."


    "That''s right."


    The two of them laughed. When the Third Wife left, Xi Jiu Er let Liu Xiang clean herself up properly, she would definitely dress herself up beautifully and make Xi Wan Feng angry to the point that she felt that it was best if she died. Liu Xiang guessed out the intentions of her master, and made Xi Jiu Er look extremely beautiful ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was originally a beautiful and outstanding woman, and as long as she put her heart into dressing up properly, she wouldn''t lose to Xi Wan Rong in any way.


    Xi Jiu Er looked around in front of the copper mirror. Liu Xiang''s cooking skills were getting better and better, and she said happily: "Let''s go, we''ll find a cover for Xi Wan Feng!"


    In this case, Liu Shui had found the doctor of heart-nourishing hall to diagnose First Lady, and confirmed that First Lady''s mental state had a problem due to the extreme stimulation, and was more or less like a madman. When First Lady heard this, he scolded, "What nonsense are you spouting? I am not crazy at all, all of you are working together to harm me, all of you deserve to die, all of you deserve to die!"


    The First Lady was now like a fish on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered. She began to curse, and completely disregarded her image as she grabbed the doctor''s collar and cursed, "You two are teaming up with Xi Jiu Er to harm me, aren''t you! Old Madame, Master, I want to see old Madame! "" Master?


    "Our Madame is not sick, you quack doctor." Wang Ma also stood in front of First Lady and scolded: "You are heart-nourishing hall''s doctor, you should collude with them!"


    "This is the doctor invited by the old Madame." mother of joy said indifferently as she entered the room. She did not have any trace of the past on him, and was only looking at those shrew in the market. mother of joy frowned: It seems like First Lady is really crazy, as if she cannot stand the excitement.


    "You, you slut tricked me." First Lady stared angrily at Liu Shui, who spoke with utter innocence: "First Lady, what did Servant do to you? This doctor was not found by the Servant, but by the Old Madame. How can you say that the old Madame is scheming against you? "


    This Liu Shui seemed to have an honest face, but in reality, she was just as venomous as that bitch Xi Jiu Er. Even if she brought the doctor over, he didn''t say that he was the Old Madame''s doctor, and thought that Xi Jiu Er had brought him here. Wasn''t this just trying to trick her or something? Furthermore, he was speaking such nonsense. It was really infuriating for her.


    mother of joy frowned even more. Behind her, an old man walked over and checked her pulse, and First Lady said in fear: "No, I am not sick, I am not crazy, it was you guys who framed me, it was you guys who framed me. It is all a scheme that you guys used, you guys want to harm me!" The First Lady was afraid that Xi Jiu Er would use something to discipline her, so by that time, even if she wasn''t crazy, she would have to be crazy, so she was afraid ¡­


    This was the first time the First Lady truly felt the terror of wireless. It was extremely terrifying! She hid behind Wang Ma, scared like a child. In everyone''s eyes, this scene was one of utter insanity!


    "Go away, I don''t want you to look. I don''t want you to look." The First Lady screamed.


    Liu Shui said indifferently: "Since First Lady does not need a doctor, then forget it, let''s go." Hmph, at that time when I have Jiu Er, I can let him go, but Jiu Er did not participate in this matter, because even doctors would be able to see through the First Lady.


    Liu Shui brought the doctor and left, the mother of joy asked the doctor to prescribe the medicine, causing the entire First Lady to feel a sense of despair: Oh no, they all thought I was crazy, no, she isn''t!


    "Don''t take prescriptions, I don''t take medicine, I don''t take medicine." First Lady crazily planned to pull the prescription away, while muttering to himself, "There''s poison in this prescription, I won''t take any medicine."


    The mother of joy looked at the doctor and said gently: "Since you don''t want to eat, then forget it." After bringing the doctor away, First Lady heaved a sigh of relief, but not long later, a maidservant came over and cried out: "First Lady, it''s bad, mother of joy has locked the courtyard from the inside."


    "What!" First Lady felt his vision go black, and his entire person fainted.


    Mother Fang called out: "First Lady, what''s wrong with you? "What''s wrong?"


    mother of joy followed the old Madame''s instructions. If First Lady was really crazy, then she would lock up the courtyard so that she wouldn''t pinch her neck whenever she had nothing better to do. What if she really died in her hands? The mother of joy told the old Madame of his diagnosis. The old Madame frowned, "You should tell this matter to the Master, let''s see how he will handle this."


    After all, the First Lady was the daughter of the Wang family. If her daughter was crazy, then the Xi Family must give an explanation.


    "Yes sir!" The mother of joy nodded.


    On the other side, Third Wife laid on the bed after he had seen the child. From time to time, he would sigh, and from time to time, he would worry as well. She stood up to greet him.


    "What''s wrong with you?" "What are you worrying about?" Xi Hong Sheng was not in a good mood. Originally, she wanted to come to Third Wife to relieve her depression, but when she saw Third Wife, she did not look too good, and her tone of voice became unfriendly as well.


    "Master, when I see how upset First Lady is, I just want to share! I don''t know what''s wrong with First Lady, why don''t I go pray for First Lady''s blessings, and hope that First Lady can recover soon. " Third Wife replied meekly.


    Xi Hong Sheng held her in his arms and sighed. "Sigh, you''re just like a Bodhisattva, if you want to pray, then go and pray." He also wanted First Lady to get up early, if not he would explain quite a bit to the Wang family. "Yes, I will be preparing something soon!" Third Wife smiled and replied gently as he leaned into Xi Hong Sheng''s embrace. Xi Hong Sheng felt better after the two of them chatted for a while more, before he happily went out. First Lady was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit. She was too embarrassed to even say these words out loud.


    Xi Jiu Er went to find Xi Wan Feng. No, sshe went to look for Xi Wan Feng! Xi Wan Feng''s entire body was filled with fractures. After the doctor had locked her up, he warned her not to move recklessly, and her face was also scratched, the doctor had smeared medicine on it. When Xi Jiu Er came over, he saw that Xi Wan Feng was as still as a corpse, there was some unknown mess smeared all over his face.


    "Big Sister Feng, what''s wrong with you?" Xi Jiu Er asked softly, her expression showing incomparable concern: "Seeing Big Sister Feng like this made Jiu Er wish that she could do it on behalf of her sister."


    Xi Wan Feng tossed and turned for a long time, thinking that she could rest well. Unexpectedly, this evil star came again, causing Taiyang Zhi to jump again, but unfortunately, she covered her face with medicine and refused to budge. Otherwise, she would definitely jump up and slap Xi Jiu Er a few times to vent her anger.


    This was exactly what Xi Jiu Er saw before him before she started crying: "Big Sister Feng, how did something like this happen? "I just asked about little brother''s situation. I''m afraid little brother won''t be able to stand up for the rest of his life." Xi Jiu Er flung the first grievous news to Xi Wan Feng, causing him to wail in his heart: "Little brother, I''ve harmed you! No, that''s not right, it''s Xi Jiu Er, that slut who has harmed you."


    "My poor little brother, we are all waiting for you to inherit our great Xi Mansion. What do we do from now on?" Xi Jiu Er cooked at the same time as Xi Wan Feng, and when Xi Wan Feng heard that his little brother had missed out on the heir to Xi Mansion, he hated them all. Following that, he comforted himself that his little brother was still young, and would definitely find a highly skilled doctor to treat him in the future.


    Xi Jiu Er naturally knew what she was thinking, and said: "Sister, the doctor said that the bones that are in your face, I am afraid that it will be difficult to recover from then on ¡­" The expression on Xi Jiu Er''s face, who was originally not very energetic, changed immediately. She abruptly turned her head to look at Xi Jiu Er, only to see that Xi Jiu Er had changed.


    "Sigh, seeing how Jiu Er feels about Big Sister Feng and little brother, our poor mother is really worried for our children!" Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth and smiled, "Big Sister Feng, do you know how mother is doing?"

 C129

    Xi Wan Feng had a bad premonition. She puckered her lips but could not speak, as long as she opened her mouth, she would feel a burning pain on her face. She prayed in her heart that nothing would happen to the First Lady. Otherwise, who would save them and avenge them? Xi Jiu Er saw that she was staring at him fiercely, and pretended to cry: "mother, mother is crazy!"


    With a loud boom, Xi Wan Feng felt that Xi Jiu Er was just joking with him, how could he possibly go crazy? A while ago, he was fine, but now, he''s going crazy! Hmph, Xi Jiu Er must have purposely said that because she was angry at herself. Xi Jiu Er, I won''t fall for your trick this time.


    Xi Jiu Er saw the provocation in her eyes, but she did not flare up, and probably did not believe him. Instead, she smirked and said to Liu Xiang: "Let''s go, since Big Sister Feng does not believe me, then forget it."


    As Xi Wan Feng watched Xi Jiu Er leave in a victorious manner, he secretly cursed in his heart. There would be a day when she would rise again, and Xi Jiu Er will definitely flay your skin and pull tendons to make you die a miserable death.


    Xi Wan Feng asked the servant to find out if what Xi Jiu Er said was really true. Soon after, the servant hurried over with a look of fear on her face: "The Great, Great Miss, everyone in the palace said that the First Lady had gone mad ¡­ "She''s gone crazy ¡­"


    What! Xi Wan Feng could no longer endure and shouted, "Xi Jiu Er, there will be a day I''ll kill you! The news of First Lady going mad spread like wildfire. Xi Jiu Er paid respects to the old Madame and brought up Xi Wan Rong, meaning was for Xi Wan Rong to return and take care of the First Lady. First Lady must have someone to serve them right?


    Old Madame thought about it and ordered the Wang Ma to bring the person back.


    "Wang Ma, you better teach these servants a good lesson. In the manor, each and every one of their powers think that I have lost their favour, so they must think of a way to deal with me. You better help me vent my anger." Xi Wan Rong could finally make her decision, and was no longer being coerced by the Sun and You Wen Cai.


    How could Wang Ma not know what was happening inside after staying in his mansion for so many years? Seeing Xi Wan Rong being like this, she knew that she had suffered a lot. First Lady had always loved her daughter the most, and today, she would definitely seek justice for Miss Rong.


    "You bold dog slaves, the masters sent the Miss up to the manor but were bullied by you lowly people, are you blind? Miss Rong is the most beloved of Old Madame and First Lady, you people deserve to die the most from lying to him. " Wang Ma immediately decided to vent on Xi Wan Rong.


    When Xi Wan Rong heard Wang Ma''s words, he was slightly moved. "For the past few months, I had thought that mother had forgotten about me and did not want Rong Er anymore ¡­"


    Wang Ma sighed, "How can that be? First Lady was delayed because of something. "


    What''s the matter? Is there anything more important than your daughter? Xi Wan Rong was a little dissatisfied with First Lady''s choice. He was her most beloved daughter, yet he had suffered so much in the Villa.


    "Miss Rong, you must be feeling wronged. First Lady has always been worried that you might keep your words in your heart, if it wasn''t for her unwell condition, we would have already ordered this old servant to bring you back. These dog slaves must have nothing better to do than to sow discord, don''t you dare be so credulous! " When the Wang Ma explained to the First Lady, Xi Wan Rong saw that the Wang Ma had a haggard face recently, and did not look as energetic as before, and believed her words. Furthermore, First Lady''s body and bones were not good when she left.


    The calamity that he had established must have been caused by some difficulties for the Third Wife. He understood in his heart that Xi Wan Rong would not be angry about it, so he smiled and said, "As long as you remember me, I will be fine." He then looked at You Wen Cai and Sun, and upon thinking about what they had done to him, he became extremely furious: "Wang Ma, clean up this mess of mine, don''t you know how she bullied me?"


    This time, Wang Ma brought some people over, and nodded: "Don''t worry, Miss Rong, this old servant will help you vent your anger."


    "Hmph." Xi Wan Rong let out a cold snort.


    You Wen Cai immediately knelt down and cried out the injustice, "Wang Ma, ah, this servant is wrongly accused. This servant is respectful to Miss Rong, but to her, this servant must treat her like his ancestor. I don''t think I would disgrace the Miss Rong in the slightest. "


    Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips, You Wen Cai was right, he did not do anything to him, but the servant that served beside him, Zhu Er, was too much for him to play around with. Everyone said that after beating the dog to see the owner, Zhu Er was their own servant, so how could he be fit to bring her out from Xi Mansion like this? Xi Wan Rong bellowed: Wang Ma, don''t listen to his nonsense!


    Wang Ma was naturally on Xi Wan Rong''s side, she ordered the old granny who came with her: "Slap your mouth, you actually dared to wrongly accuse Miss Rong, you must be tired of living."


    "No, no ¡­" Miss Rong, please forgive me ¡­ "Aiyo, aiyo, be gentler, be gentler!" You Wen Cai pleaded for mercy for Xi Wan Rong. Seeing Xi Wan Rong not moving at all, he felt that a great disaster was about to befall him! That wench came over and slapped You Wen Cai with her palm, turning You Wen Cai into a pig head in a few breaths'' time.


    Sun was so scared that even his lips were trembling, not knowing what to say. Xi Wan Rong was definitely even more ruthless towards him than towards You Wen Cai. During this period of time, it was him who was making things difficult for Xi Wan Rong. Only the heavens knew she still had a chance to make a comeback! She did not think that if she did, how could she act with such a blind eye?


    Seeing You Wen Cai''s reaction, Xi Wan Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and began to giggle while fiercely staring at the Sun: "Hahaha, Sun, today, I''ll personally take care of you."


    Sun was so scared that he immediately kowtowed and said, "Miss Rong, your master has a large number of requests. I beg you, please spare my master. Servant deserves to die, Servant deserves to die! " After saying that, he scratched himself, hoping that Xi Wan Rong would let him go.


    Sun knew that she was one of Xi Mansion''s dogs. It was not a problem for Xi Mansion to kill her, but she did not want to die ¡­ Xi Wan Rong''s gaze seemed to be telling him that she was dead meat!


    "Wuu ¡­ wuu ¡­" Miss Rong, I beg you, please spare Servant ¡­ " Sun kneeled next to Xi Wan Rong''s feet, crying with snot and tears. She only felt that Xi Wan Rong was very happy, that the Sun had humiliated her, and that she had to repay him back today.


    "Spare you? "Wow!" Xi Wan Rong kicked Sun far away. Sun laid on the ground and pretended to hold his stomach, pretending to be in severe pain. Xi Wan Rong instructed the Wang Ma to find a willow branch. It wasn''t hard for the willow branch to hit him, but the pain was excruciating!


    When the Sun heard that Xi Wan Rong wanted to bypass him, he didn''t believe it at all. Wang Ma gave the willow branch to Xi Wan Rong, and Xi Wan Rong walked forward and started to beat him up.


    "Pa Pa Pa Pa ¡­" Xi Wan Rong''s face showed some strength in the manor, and this was all thanks to the Sun, now that Xi Wan Rong had come to take care of him, it could be considered as taking advantage of himself!


    "Miss, have mercy ¡­" Please spare my life ¡­ Ahhh ¡­ Painful... My Face... My Face... Woo woo ¡­ * Miss... Ah, Servant is wrong ¡­ Please spare Servant ¡­ "Ahh!" Sun was beaten until he was rolling on the ground, Xi Wan Rong kept pulling with all his might.


    "I''ll forgive you! In your dreams!" Let''s see if you still dare to bully me in the future. I am a dignified direct descendant of the Xi Mansion, who are you to actually want to be on equal footing with me? Xi Wan Rong scolded as he fought, feeling extremely carefree in his heart.


    "Yes, Servant deserves to die ¡­ Servant was wrong... "Sob, sob ¡­" Sun continued to beg for mercy, and in a moment, he was bleeding. You Wen Cai looked at him in excitement, it was a good fight!


    You Wen Cai''s greatest hope was that the Sun would die. As long as the Sun died, he would be able to get rid of the tigress, Sun. The more he thought about it, the more You Wen Cai could not help but shout out loud.


    Xi Wan Rong was tired from fighting so he sat down to rest. Sun''s body trembled as he hugged his head and cried in a low voice. You Wen Cai was very disappointed, why didn''t he beat her to death?


    Xi Wan Rong gasped for breath, Zhu Er brought her some tea, causing Xi Wan Rong to feel extremely disgusted. She ordered Wang Ma: "This You Wen Cai already has a son, he doesn''t need any descendants anymore! Wang Ma, castrate him! "


    "Ahh ¡ª ¡ª Miss Rong doesn''t want it ¡ª don''t ¡ª ¡ª" You Wen Cai had thought that his punishment had already passed, but now it was his turn again, and it was even this kind of punishment! It was even worse than taking his life.


    This Sun was cursing at Xi Wan Rong. Upon hearing Xi Wan Rong''s decision, he was immediately overjoyed, almost jumping up and pointing at You Wen Cai as he laughed out loud: You Wen Cai, you beast, you actually have such a day? Therefore, she felt happy inside, but she couldn''t show it. She just waited for the blade to cut down.


    Seeing You Wen Cai''s expression, Wang Ma could guess what kind of person he was. He must have done something wrong with Xi Wan Rong''s exceptional appearance, so he nodded and instructed the old granny to bring the scissors over.


    His wife went over to get a pair of scissors and came out of the house. Xi Wan Rong raised his chin, and the old granny immediately pulled You Wen Cai''s pants down.


    Xi Wan Rong had already turned around. A man as disgusting as Ju-Wen Dai actually still wanted to eat swan meat? Juventus screamed out from behind him, "Ahh!"


    Xi Wan Rong waved his hand, and someone immediately brought You Wen Cai to deal with it. pointed at her and said, "You old bitch, do you think you can escape? Wang Ma, shave this old lady for me! "


    "Yes sir!" Wang Ma gave her a look. The old granny was still holding onto the bloody scissors! Pulling away Sun''s hair, he covered his face and shouted: "Don''t ruin my face, don''t ¡­ "Ahh!" No matter how powerful Sun was, she could not compare to the old granny. She only felt a burning pain on her face as a warm liquid flowed out, scaring her to the point of screaming.


    Xi Wan Rong saw that the matter was settled, and decided to let everyone fight on the 20 boards! Afterwards, the group of people sat in the carriage that brought them back to the residence ¡­ Xi Wan Rong asked about the situation of the manor, and Wang Ma sighed.


    Wang Ma was originally smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, but now that he had lost weight, his smile was different from before! She sighed: "After Miss Rong left, many things happened at home. Third Wife gave birth to a Young Master, and he was greatly doted upon by both the old and the old Madame.


    Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips, there will be a day when this slut, Third Wife, will take care of her! Wang Ma said: "Madame Yan is dead ¡­ Master sorrowfully thought that it was because of First Lady. After losing his temper at First Lady, he no longer visited First Lady''s courtyard frequently. "


    Yan Er? Thinking about how she was prettier than him, Xi Wan Rong felt extremely uncomfortable! Fortunately she was dead, so Xi Wan Rong felt less of a threat.


    "Where''s the mother? Where are the Big Sister Feng and little brother? " Xi Wan Rong asked: "Has mother recovered?"


    Wang Ma sighed, "Miss Feng has been disfigured ¡­ The little Young Master was paralyzed... Madame has gone mad! "


    "What?" Xi Wan Rong asked in disbelief, his eyes wide open: "How could this happen? It''s only been a few months ¡­ Why... "Why ¡­" So it was because of such an unexpected turn of events that he didn''t go back to eat.


    "Miss Feng, Little Young Master and Xi Jiu Er have gone to pray for First Lady. Miss Feng and Little Young Master have fallen off their horses ¡­ And Xi Jiu Er escaping one tribulation would only result in severe injuries... First Lady would go crazy if she could not take it anymore ¡­ This time, the reason why I called Miss Rong back was because I hoped to take care of him. I hoped that she could get better as soon as possible. " Just as Wang Ma finished speaking, he heard Xi Wan Rong ask: "Mother? Do you believe it? This must be related to that bitch Xi Jiu Er, it must be her fault. " Yeah, but there''s no evidence!

 C130

    Other than the two servants guarding the door, no one else came to pick up. Holding her hand, Zhu Er realised that Xi Wan Rong''s hand was silently pinching the back of her hand, and her expression did not change. The Wang Ma at the side asked Xi Wan Rong: "Miss Rong, do we look for the old Madame or First Lady first?"


    "Naturally, we have to look at the mother first." Xi Wan Rong said indifferently: "If I were to look at the old Madame when such a thing happened to him, I''m afraid I would have been charged with being unfilial."


    After going to the manor, the Miss Rong had opened up even more than before. Thus, when the group of people went to see the First Lady, it was really a narrow path for enemies, to actually meet up with Xi Jiu Er and the other person. Xi Wan Rong looked at Xi Jiu Er''s face. She had spent a huge amount of patience before she was able to tear that face apart.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er!" Xi Wan Rong lowered his eyes. When he opened his eyes, there was nothing on his face. This kind of Xi Wan Rong made Xi Jiu Er look up to him a few times, did he finally think it through? The reason she came today was to add fuel to the fire for Xi Wan Rong, so she asked: "Elder Sister Rong''s return? This Third Wife is really too much, since he has come back today, why not send someone to support him. "


    Xi Wan Rong knew that Xi Jiu Er was ridiculing her, but she still pretended to be sensible and understood the situation. Now that the mother was like this and her sister was like this, her little brother was also paralyzed. Thus, he raised his head and smiled: "Xi Mansion is so busy with all sorts of things, I''m afraid that Third Wife is not familiar with how to take over. Wang Ma, let''s go, Little Sister Jiu Er, I won''t reminisce with you anymore, I''ll go take a look at mother first! "


    However, Xi Jiu Er said: "At this time, mother is still sleeping, but Big Sister Feng is still awake. Go take a look at Big Sister Feng, I think Big Sister Feng has something to tell you."


    "Little Sister Jiu Er seems to know everything about the estate like the back of her hand." Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips and smiled: "Since Little Sister Jiu Er has said so, I will go and see Big Sister Feng."


    had never seen such a quiet and patient Xi Wan Rong before. Liu Xiang said softly: "Miss, Miss Rong has changed."


    "Liu Xiang, as the saying goes, changing one''s nature is difficult, but to put it bluntly, dogs cannot change their personality. Do you believe that in a short period of time, you can bring about earth-shattering changes? I can only say that she has become smarter. "


    In the end, Xi Wan Rong followed Xi Jiu Er''s instructions and looked at Xi Wan Feng. It was said that after being injured for a hundred days, Xi Wan Feng could barely walk on the ground.


    The woman that Xi Wan Rong saw when he came was like a lunatic. Her dishevelled hair was unkempt and unkempt, and there was no light in her eyes. At that moment, Xi Wan Rong could not even see a shadow of arrogance in her. She finally understood why Xi Jiu Er wanted her to come see Xi Wan Feng first.


    In Xi Wan Feng''s body, she saw despair, self-destruction, self-blame, hatred... How despairing was that feeling of wanting to die yet not being able to die? Xi Wan Rong''s shout ''Big Sister Feng'' made his entire body tremble.


    No matter how much estrangement or hatred there was between sisters, blood was thicker than water! Xi Wan Rong threw himself onto Xi Wan Feng''s body and cried, "What happened, what happened? How long has it been since I went there?!"


    Xi Wan Feng sighed, gritted his teeth and said, "Whatever happened, it was naturally caused by that bitch Xi Jiu Er."


    "Big sister, what happened ¡­" Xi Wan Rong raised his head and asked.


    So, Xi Wan Feng told Xi Wan Rong the whole story, of course she did not have to worry about it, it was because of her negligence, or else Xi Mao would not be crippled, and First Lady would not become a lunatic because of Xi Jiu Er.


    "How could this be ¡­" Why do my father and Grandmother believe that slut Xi Jiu Er''s one-sided story? Having lost the First Lady would be akin to having lost her backbone. "As long as the mother isn''t crazy, everything will be fine. Once we get rid of the and the rest, everything will gradually get better."


    "You''ve changed." Xi Wan Feng said softly.


    Xi Wan Rong coldly snorted. "Life in a village is like a life of an animal''s, it''s hard to not change it. That bitch Xi Jiu Er, we will slowly teach her a lesson. Does she think that we can cover the sky with one hand in Xi Mansion? "This is simply a dream."


    "What good idea do you have?" Xi Wan Feng asked.


    "The best idea would be to go to Grandfather''s home and have Grandfather send someone to bring mother out. When that happens, mother would naturally recover from her illness and return to the house to regain control of the Xi Family." Xi Wan Rong smiled slightly, then nodded: "What you said was feasible, I originally thought like that, but Third Wife said nothing and did not let me leave, saying that he wanted me to rest in peace, you didn''t know that this was like going to jail."


    Xi Wan Feng couldn''t help but touch the wound on his face, his eyes filled with hatred. "I will return her everything that Xi Jiu Er has done to me."


    The two sisters spoke for a while, then Xi Wan Rong went to see the First Lady. The originally lively courtyard had already been sealed, the Wang Ma said while wiping her tears: "It''s been a long time since the First Lady went out."


    "mother ¡­" Xi Wan Rong cried.


    The door opened, and Wang Ma walked in. Xi Wan Rong was startled: "Where are the maids and wives?"


    "There are only two women here. One of them is from the kitchen, so there''s no one here." Wang Ma was not only sighing, the once glorious and powerful Xi Mansion Mother had actually fallen to such a state, if word of this were to spread, he would definitely become a laughingstock. For the sake of face, the Xi Mansion said that Wang Madame''s health was not good and he was sick.


    Xi Jiu Er stumbled into the room, and saw a woman with a dishevelled face, sitting by the side of the bed with a blank look on her face: "mother!" She turned her head. If it wasn''t First Lady, who else could it be?


    "Rong Er!" When First Lady saw that it was her daughter that she had longed for day and night, she immediately became lively, and exclaimed: "My Rong Er is back!"


    "mother... That bitch Xi Jiu Er ¡­ "That slut will die a horrible death ¡­" Xi Wan Rong hugged First Lady and cried: "mother, you''ve suffered!" Looking at his daughter who was crying incessantly, First Lady didn''t feel that he had wasted his love for this daughter of his.


    "Rong Er, Xi Jiu Er is a man with malicious intents, all of the disasters that we have suffered today were disasters caused by underestimating our enemies, you better not go against Xi Jiu Er, otherwise mother will truly be afraid ¡­" First Lady''s heart trembled. She hugged Xi Wan Rong tightly, as if she was about to lose her.


    "mother, your daughter has already made a plan, mother will not find trouble with Xi Jiu Er." Xi Wan Rong promised: "When mother is better and out of the courtyard, big sister''s face will also recover, let''s work together and see what she, Xi Jiu Er, is capable of."


    "We, Rong Er have changed. If it was before, I''m afraid that this kung fu session would have already gone to Xi Jiu Er to settle the score!" First Lady said with relief.


    Xi Wan Rong''s nose twitched: "mother, people change one another the whole time."


    guessed what Xi Wan Rong''s next step would be. Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Just wait and see, she will definitely go and find helpers, other than the families of First Lady, who else can she go to?"


    "This... If she went to find him, wouldn''t it be troublesome? Miss, why don''t we take advantage of First Lady''s madness for a period of time and make it so that he will never be able to stand up again? Liu Xiang asked, puzzled.


    "Never turn over? As long as her mother''s family is still useful to Xi Hong Sheng, there will definitely be leeway for her to make a comeback. I will be waiting for her mother''s family to come, and at that time I will let her see, even if she has a mother''s family, she will still not be able to make a comeback. Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly.


    Not mentioning how the management was neat and orderly, the Xi Family was also a lot better than before. She had to have a rule for everything. Xi Wan Rong paid his respects to the old Madame, who didn''t like First Lady and also didn''t like her children, so he dejectedly sent her back. Before leaving, he would say a few words to her, "Take good care of your mother, I don''t need you to worry about me."


    "Yes." Xi Wan Rong bowed politely. Along the way, other than his hands tightly clenched, his expression did not change at all.


    Xi Hong Sheng also did not give her any face, he just told her to stay in the mansion, and not to run around when there was nothing to do. It was only then that Xi Hong Sheng''s expression became slightly better. After all, she was her own daughter, and looking at Xi Wan Rong''s beautiful face, he started to calculate once again.


    Although this daughter''s reputation wasn''t very good, but wasn''t her face still completely fine!?


    On this day, Xi Wan Rong finally saw the beautiful and enchanting Madame Wen, possessing the charm of Jiangnan but carrying an indescribable charm. She had to admit that the Third Wife was a better person than her own mother. Third Wife had always been a pampered person for many years and it was not without reason, because she knew how to make Xi Hong Sheng happy ¡­ Even picking women was something that Xi Hong Sheng liked.


    Then, he looked at his own mother, afraid that someone would steal Xi Hong Sheng away from him ¡­ It wasn''t a beautiful woman that he was looking for. After a few tries, the novelty was gone. Xi Wan Rong couldn''t help but sigh;


    There seemed to be a faint smile on Madame Wen''s face, making people not hate him. She bowed to Xi Wan Rong in a very proper manner, and Xi Wan Rong laughed: "Presumably, this is Madame Wen."


    "It really is me." Wen Madame smiled slightly, and exclaimed with admiration: As expected, the number one beauty, truly a peerless beauty! Unconsciously, her eyes revealed a look of astonishment, which pleased Xi Wan Rong, and she laughed too: "Where did you come from, Wen Madame?"


    Madame Wen laughed, "Shao Xin."


    Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips and laughed, "Shao Xin, I heard that Shao Xin found a beauty, it seems that she is not lying today." But in his heart, he was puzzled. Shao Xin had traveled thousands of miles from the capital, why had she come to the capital?


    "Miss Rong must be joking, when it comes to beauties, no one can compare to Miss Rong. The beauty of the Miss Rong makes people sigh as if she is a celestial. " Madame Wen was very good at talking, and Xi Wan Rong enjoyed it very much. The two flattered each other for a while before separating.

 C131

    Xi Jiu Er knew that she was waiting. Once the Wang Family arrived, she would be able to turn the situation around and the First Lady would have the chance to leave the Xi Mansion. Xi Wan Rong was waiting for this kind of opportunity, and so was he.


    "Miss Jiu Er, ex-sister-in-law has said that if you have nothing else to do, you should go to my house to take a look. During this period of time, Lao Xu has started to get sick again." Liu Shui said as he ate the bun. The problem she was talking about was that Lao Xu had started to do those things again. Xi Jiu Er nodded, he had let this Lao Xu go for so long, she should take it out and use it.


    "Let''s go, it''s better if we hit the day, we''ll go to heart-nourishing hall to take a look, and we''ll also take a look at the other shops." Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Xiang and the two maids over to the heart-nourishing hall, it was still very lively there, only the heart-nourishing hall''s upper echelons knew that the real owner of the shop was Xi Jiu Er, everyone thought that the owner was from Xi Family, so the Xi Family would definitely not come out to spread the rumours. Furthermore, the Old Madame of the shop believed that the owner would eventually get it.


    "This Miss, take a look at what kind of medicinal ingredients you are looking for, this lowly one can introduce them to you." This young servant was extremely quick-witted. Her smiling eyes were already like slits, making people feel extremely happy just by looking at him.


    "Is that so? Do you know medicine? " Xi Jiu Er asked with a smile.


    The servant boy chuckled, "I''ve been an apprentice alchemist for a few years. I know how to identify medicines and I know a bit about their medicinal properties. Even if I don''t have a shopkeeper, I still have one."


    Xi Jiu Er knew that the servants here were all meticulous in their selection. Not only could they identify the medicinal ingredients, they were also clean in their hands and feet. In order to probe this fellow out, Xi Jiu Er had started to point at the medicinal ingredients in the box. Xi Jiu Er then asked about a few prescriptions, such as some that could recover one''s vital energy and blood, some that could calm one''s mind, etc. This made Xi Jiu Er look at him in a new light: "This heart-nourishing hall is so capable, the servants here are almost doctors!"


    The servant laughed: "What this Miss has said makes this little one embarrassed, this little one only knows a little about the skin. There are still doctors who are on duty, if this Miss does not trust them, I can ask the doctors here."


    "Heh heh, I trust you. I trust you." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Sorry for troubling you, I''ll take a look myself. If there''s anything, I''ll call you."


    If it was a servant from another shop, he would have started to complain long ago. However, this attendant was still smiling as he said: "Alright, Miss, just take a look for yourself. If you don''t find the medicinal ingredients that you want, this one can call the shopkeeper over."


    "Go." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Liu Xiang moved closer to him and said, "Miss, the business here is really good. The management of this place is really good."


    This shop was originally big, and after ex-sister-in-law took over, she split this shop into two floors. The small courtyard at the back also expanded a lot, but Xi Jiu Er did not manage to find, nor did she see Lao Xu''s figure, which made Xi Jiu Er curious for a moment.


    "Liu Shui, go look for the people from ex-sister-in-law." Xi Jiu Er instructed Liu Shui. ex-sister-in-law was a cautious person, they had been at the shop for a quarter of an hour, and after asking a few servants where she was, they couldn''t help but be curious. Even Lao Xu did not see it.


    The doctor sitting on the second floor, Xi Jiu Er, raised her head from the first floor and saw a white robed man with long sleeves. Before she even looked carefully, she saw Liu Shui''s ugly expression staring at her, indicating for Xi Jiu Er to go to the backyard.


    "What''s wrong?" Xi Jiu Er saw that Liu Shui''s expression was not well: "Something has happened to ex-sister-in-law."


    "It''s a good thing that Servant came in time, otherwise, this Lao Xu would have done something to ex-sister-in-law." Liu Shui brought Xi Jiu Er to a storage room at the back of the courtyard. Lao Xu was clutching his stomach and rolling around, while ex-sister-in-law''s face was pale white.


    "Miss is here." ex-sister-in-law tidied up her clothes and hair ornament, and said indifferently.


    "Mn, I came here to take a look today. I never thought that I would encounter such a thing. This Lao Xu sure is bold." Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and viciously kicked Lao Xu. Most likely, Liu Shui had hurt her in some way, so he was clutching his stomach and rolling on the ground in pain.


    ex-sister-in-law went up and forcefully kicked a few times at Lao Xu, but Lao Xu did not scream. Only now did Xi Jiu Er realize that Liu Shui had blocked Lao Xu''s mouth. If people knew that Lao Xu was shouting loudly, what would happen to his reputation as the ex-sister-in-law?


    Liu Shui nodded, she also felt that it was very smart of his to follow Xi Jiu Er.


    This Lao Xu always wanted me to agree to him being a manager, if I do not agree, he can bear it, but then he started to seduce me, today he actually thought of using force to assault me, if not for Miss, I''m afraid that I would have ¡­ The more ex-sister-in-law said, the angrier he got. Liu Shui quickly said, "ex-sister-in-law, let me help you."


    "Wuwuwu" Liu Shui gave a violent kick, causing Lao Xu to cry out in pain as he rolled on the ground. Xi Jiu Er scoffed, "Lao Xu''s heart is still pretty strong, to actually dare to stain ex-sister-in-law, are you tired of living?"


    "ex-sister-in-law, I shall leave this person to you. You decide whether he is dead or alive." Xi Jiu Er gave Lao Xu a kick, and laughed: "Don''t take it to heart, for such a despicable person, you made us so worried!"


    ex-sister-in-law took a cold breath and said lightly: "I understand, let''s go, let him stay here. For the time being, I don''t have any ideas on how to deal with him."


    Just as he entered the lobby, he heard a woman''s voice: "Really, Cousin? The rose spirit can be used for beauty? can make my skin become watery? "


    This voice belonged to no one else but the Miss Zheng. Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows. In such a big place like the capital, it was rare for her to actually meet a Miss Zheng after going out of the door! Xi Jiu Er saw the girl beside Miss Zheng through the curtain. She seemed to be around fifteen or sixteen, and was not very pretty. And this father was the person Xi Jiu Er was looking for ¡ª someone from First Lady.


    It was a broken iron shoe that could be found anywhere. It wouldn''t take any effort to obtain it! Even the heavens were helping her. Wait, what a waste of a few months of training in painting ¡­ Thinking of this, his expression turned ugly.


    Liu Xiang and Liu Shui both came over and whispered: "Miss, that Miss seems to be that man you drew."


    "Yeah, it''s 80% similar. Sigh, a girl who looks like this really doesn''t look good. Even Servant feels that she''s much prettier than her. " Liu Shui whispered as he blinked his eyes. Liu Shui was amused. He had never been so confident about his appearance, but today, he had found a way to be confident.


    Liu Xiang burst out laughing as she laughed, "Liu Shui''s beauty is comparable to this Miss in front of me, she''s as beautiful as a fairy."


    Liu Shui''s face reddened. "Liu Xiang, aren''t you being too exaggerated!?" The better their relationship was, the more they liked to bicker, causing Xi Jiu Er to enjoy the bickering between the two of them. After Liu Shui became Liu Shui, he treated Liu Xiang like family, and with his family by his side, the feeling of bickering and bickering was very good.


    "Of course it''s true ¡­" The lady lowered her head and whispered a few words into Miss Zheng''s ear. Miss Zheng''s eyes lit up and with a hint of shyness, she said: "Cousin likes to tease me."


    It had to be said that the girl''s skin was not bad, white and tender, delicate to the point that it looked broken, but it was also her fault that she could persuade the Miss Zheng despite her ungood-looking appearance. Xi Jiu Er instructed the ex-sister-in-law: "Go and inquire about the identity of this'' cousin ''."


    "Right." ex-sister-in-law lifted the curtain and smiled, "Miss Zheng is here today. Our mat really brings light to our humble dwelling.


    Miss Zheng enjoyed being praised by others. She raised her chin and laughed, "Shopkeeper Qian, I want as much of this Rose Spirit as I can get."


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed, this time, Miss Zheng was afraid that she would fall to ex-sister-in-law, ex-sister-in-law smiled and said: "Miss Zheng, the price for this rose spirit is higher than normal."


    Miss Zheng immediately said proudly, "Don''t worry, I will definitely be able to afford it." As she spoke, the maidservant behind her threw out two thousand taels of silver.


    Xi Jiu Er had always been paying attention to the movements of Miss Zheng and her cousin. When the cousin saw two thousand silver, the greed in her eyes quickly disappeared. Xi Jiu Er pondered over the events that occurred in the great hall for a while.


    "This... "It''s not enough ¡­" The ex-sister-in-law hesitated: "This rose spirit plant costs five hundred silver, our shop has five in total ¡­ That would be a total of two thousand five hundred liang of silver. "


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and smiled, she knew that ex-sister-in-law would do business. Behind him, Liu Shui and Liu Xiang''s eyes were wide open, because they had heard Xi Jiu Er mention this rose spirit before. Rose spirits aren''t expensive, but this is the season... This Rose Spirit could be considered rare.


    When the rose spirit was in its prime season, it was only worth fifty silver taels each. However, this one cost five hundred taels. When Liu Shui and Liu Xiang looked at each other, if they were themselves, they would definitely feel embarrassed about asking for such a sky-high price.


    "Ah, five hundred silver?" Miss Zheng was shocked, no, she could already be considered to be screaming. The ''cousin'' at the side was even more surprised, blurting out: "Everyone says that the heart-nourishing hall''s things are shockingly expensive, but looking at it today, it''s actually real!"


    "Hehe, Miss Zheng, can you see how fresh this Rose Spirit is? A woman''s beauty is more important than anything else, I think that the Miss knows about this! " The ex-sister-in-law smiled slightly: "Everyone says that a beauty will age late, and her looks will also age day after day. In order to redeem her looks, what does this have to do with anything?"


    Miss Zheng gritted her teeth and thought for a while: "Alright! "I''ll get the maidservants to send the remaining five hundred taels."


    "I trust the Miss Zheng." ex-sister-in-law smiled, a servant was already there to retrieve the goods. Behind him, Cousin asked, "How do you keep it fresh? In such a hot day, what you take out must be fresh? "


    "This is our store''s secret." ex-sister-in-law said indifferently, with a look of not wanting to talk much.


    ex-sister-in-law said. "The goods are fresh, it depends on how Miss Zheng preserves them, this thing can last for four hours and if it continues for more than four hours, it will no longer be fresh."

 C132

    This thing was worth two thousand taels of silver, it wasn''t something that could be casually sold. Miss Zheng immediately put away the rose spirit and was about to let the servant send the servant up to the palace when he heard from the ex-sister-in-law, "I don''t think Miss Zheng is aware that our heart-nourishing hall is able to grind the rose into powder. Is it possible to process the herbs?"


    "Will there be people with ulterior motives who try to steal as much as possible of their medicinal ingredients?" Miss Zheng''s'' cousin ''asked out the question in her heart. ex-sister-in-law immediately smiled and said, "We are grinding in front of our guests. We are absolutely safe."


    "Then I''ll grind it here." Miss Zheng didn''t know if she cared about the two thousand taels of silver or the rose spirits, but she was so nervous that she immediately ordered the ex-sister-in-law to grind them down, while the servants grinded down the ex-sister-in-law.


    "If Miss Zheng is worried, you can go to the back to take a look." ex-sister-in-law laughed: "There is a special grinding area at the back."


    When Miss Zheng and the servant left, ex-sister-in-law asked the cousin, and laughed: "May I ask what your name is, Miss? What do you want? " Looking at how ex-sister-in-law was chatting casually, Xi Jiu Er pricked up her ears to listen.


    "Manager Qian is too polite. My name is Lin Rou, you can call me Rou Er." Lin Rou seemed to be trying to get close to him intentionally or unintentionally. It was still unknown what her goal was, but she heard the ex-sister-in-law calling out ''Miss Lin''. Lin Rou smiled and asked a lot of questions, but the ex-sister-in-law blocked them all. She asked a question out of curiosity, how were these preserved and why was it still so fresh?


    Eh, why does it feel like this is a secret? Could it be that Lin Rou''s family also had a medicinal herb business? Hm, it''s not impossible. The storage room was made by someone from the ex-sister-in-law. Every day, the ex-sister-in-law would pour spring water on some herbs, allowing the herbs to remain fresh for a long time.


    ex-sister-in-law understood a lot, but there was no problem with the medicinal herb laid out in front of her. This made Xi Jiu Er feel that her eyes were pretty good back then, and she did not miss out on Xi Jiu Er.


    Lin Rou discovered that she couldn''t get any answers out of him, so she wasn''t really interested. She sat to the side and drank her tea as her gaze looked toward the second floor. It was unknown as to what she saw in her eyes. He turned his head around with a blush.


    ex-sister-in-law raised her head and suddenly slapped her forehead. She had been busy for a long time, but still hadn''t told Xi Jiu Er the main matter! Coming to the backyard, ex-sister-in-law found Xi Jiu Er, and frowned: "Miss, I have something to tell you."


    "What is it?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows.


    "Do you still remember when we went to find Senior Sun Kong Ming? Didn''t he have a disciple? It was also in the past few days that he went to our medicine shop to become a doctor. " Seeing that Xi Jiu Er''s expression was not good, ex-sister-in-law vaguely felt that he was being reckless, and said: "Miss, yo ah, you don''t want Servant to kick him out?"


    "No need ¡­" The person who came wasn''t kind and he didn''t come. Xi Jiu Er didn''t know what goal this Xiao Feng had, it was better not to provoke him! She said lightly, "Let him stay with you. You must keep an eye on his whereabouts. As long as it is harmless to us, he will not harm any guests. Just let him do whatever he wants."


    "Yes sir!" ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "Miss, I know a little about this Lin Rou."


    "Oh?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows.


    ex-sister-in-law asked: "Is it related to the person who drew in Miss?"


    "Probably. It looks like it. Tell me about the Lin Family. " Xi Jiu Er felt like a piece of pie had suddenly fallen from the sky. Before, she was still pondering how she could never let First Lady have the chance to turn the situation around.


    "I also judged it based on the Zheng Family. Before this, I had heard about the matters regarding the Southern and Northern King Medicinal Herbs when I was still in heart-nourishing hall. The Northern King is the Lin Family. The Lin Family controls the transportation of northern medicinal herbs ¡­ The Zheng Family has many cousins, in this Lin Family, there''s only the Northern King''s Lin Family. " The ex-sister-in-law had thought about how she should judge this


    "North Wang Lin''s family ¡­" North Wang Lin''s family ¡­ Xi Jiu Er chanted it a few times, the Lin Family was merely a merchant, so there was nothing to fear! Xi Jiu Er instructed ex-sister-in-law to pay close attention to the Lin Family, and immediately inform her of the Lin Family head''s entrance into the capital.


    "Yes."


    In the Xi Mansion, Xi Wan Rong had been taking good care of her every day, and it had only been a few days when he received news that her condition had improved.


    "Miss, you recovered so quickly?" Liu Xiang was stunned: "We finally managed to beat First Lady. If she had recovered, she would have thought of coming back to join us."


    "Liu Xiang, First Lady isn''t crazy." Xi Jiu Er laughed faintly.


    "What? You''re not crazy?" Liu Xiang was startled, her eyes opened wide. This First Lady was not crazy, then why would they spread the news that she was crazy? Liu Xiang then heard Xi Jiu Er pick up the book and said: "But she will really go crazy very soon."


    On this day, Xi Jiu Er went to see the First Lady in the name of the old Madame. As Wan Rong had returned, the courtyard was filled with additional people. Entering the room, Xi Wan Rong pursed his lips and called out "Little Sister Jiu Er" before never taking another look again, while First Lady sat on his bed in a daze, obediently allowing Xi Wan Rong to feed the medicine.


    "How is mother today?" The more Xi Wan Rong was like this, the happier Xi Jiu Er was. He sat on the side of the bed and laughed, as if he had died without a care in the world.


    "Much better." Xi Wan Rong barely squeezed out a few words, and without leaving a trace, he looked at First Lady''s silly look and swallowed the Evil Qi in his mouth.


    If you need any medicinal ingredients, you can just tell me. We have a very complete set of heart-nourishing hall herbs. If our heart-nourishing hall does not have a Lin Family, we do too. " When Xi Jiu Er heard the two words "Lin Family", her expression immediately changed. In a flash, he was still able to catch sight of it.


    It really is the Lin Family of the Northern King!


    Xi Wan Rong took a deep breath, "There''s no need, mother still has more medicine." Hmph, eating your medicine would cause her to become crazy, and now mother is her last resort. When the people from her grandfather''s family arrive, she and mother will definitely counterattack, and she will return the pain that Xi Jiu Er had given them.


    "That''s good. I really hope that mother can recover soon. We Xi Family can''t leave her." Xi Jiu Er''s sincere appearance seemed to be telling the truth. Xi Wan Rong was extremely disgusted. He knew that it was her and mother who were fooled by her like this in the past, but now, he could no longer believe this slut in the slightest.


    "Right." Xi Wan Rong clenched his teeth and said a single word as anger gushed out from his chest.


    "Aiya, come, let me take a look at mother''s pulse. The doctors there have taught me a lot ¡­" After she finished speaking, she pushed Xi Wan Rong, who was caught unprepared, down to the ground and scattered the soup medicine all over her.


    Everything happened too suddenly, everyone did not have time to react. Xi Jiu Er screamed: "Ahhh, I''m sorry, Elder Sister Rong, are you alright? I didn''t do it on purpose. Liu Shui, what are you doing? Why aren''t you helping Miss Rong up? "


    "No!" Xi Wan Rong screamed, afraid that this little bitch would use some tricks to harm him. Zhu Er immediately stepped forward to help the miserable Xi Wan Rong up. Xi Wan Rong shook her off and fiercely glared at Xi Jiu Er, but he was unable to hide the hatred in his eyes.


    "What the hell do you mean?" Xi Wan Rong said one word at a time: "mother doesn''t need you here, hurry up and scram."


    "Why don''t you need me? Am I not mother''s daughter? I, too, am very concerned about the mother. " She was naturally concerned about the First Lady, and was just thinking about how to slowly torture her to the point where she couldn''t even beg for death.


    "Stop pretending to be nice and get lost." Xi Wan Rong did not hold back, he pushed Xi Jiu Er out of the house and slammed the door shut.


    "The heat is really great." Xi Jiu Er smiled and brought Liu Shui back to his own courtyard in a good mood. Look, very soon, First Lady will be making a move, she will definitely investigate every single move of the Lin Family impatiently ¡­ She was afraid that the First Lady would not move, and if she did, then her time of death would come soon.


    Lin Clan? After Xi Jiu Er left, the First Lady took off her disguise and asked Xi Wan Rong to find out about the Northern King Lin Family. Rong Er, the Lin Clan of the Northern King are cousins with us, they will definitely think of a way to save mother. As long as the Lin Clan comes to the capital, the mother will have a way to ''get better''. " First Lady was excited, she had not seen him for many years ¡­ How is he?


    "Alright, mother can set your heart at ease. Daughter will do it right away." Xi Wan Rong wanted First Lady to get better the most. This way, she would have a backbone, a backing!


    The First Lady waited anxiously as Xi Wan Rong brought the good news she wanted to hear the most. The Lin Family head Lin Wei Ran and his wife had come to the capital to discuss a big deal.


    Hearing that, First Lady became excited, and started pacing back and forth in the hut, Xi Wan Rong did not dare to disturb him and just watched. After walking for a while, First Lady suddenly stopped, his eyes gleaming: "Rong Er, mother''s condition is getting better, so you have to go to the temple to repay your wish."


    "Huh?" Xi Wan Rong regained his senses and immediately said: "Yes, daughter understands. Daughter will go and beg Grandmother right now."


    "No, go find Third Wife." When First Lady talked about Third Wife, he felt as if he had just eaten Huang Lian. There would be a day when she would take back all the women that had stolen his possessions!


    "Looking for Third Wife?" Xi Wan Rong was a little unwilling. She would rather find the old Madame than this repulsive woman.


    How could the First Lady s be willing to see through a woman''s unwillingness? Your Grandmother already hates us. If we don''t go looking for her, then we won''t even be able to take half a step out of the Palace. "


    "How could this be?"


    First Lady sneered: "mother and your Grandmother have been naughty for more than ten years, this is still true.


    "Alright, then your daughter will go find Third Wife." Xi Wan Rong revealed a determined look, "As long as mother can leave and regain control of the Xi Mansion, my daughter will willingly bear any grievances or grievances."


    "My good child, mother has already thought of a way. As long as mother can get out, then we can take back everything that belongs to us." First Lady said with full of confidence.

    "Liu Shui, go tell Third Wife of some good news ¡­" Xi Jiu Er whispered something into Liu Shui''s ears, causing him to open his eyes wide as if he had heard something incredible. However, in reality, she had heard an incredible thing: Other than the Master, there were other men behind the scenes in First Lady. This was really incredible. No matter how he looked at it, the normally dignified and virtuous First Lady would never think of him as the person who would do such a thing.


    "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go! We won''t be able to make it in time." Xi Jiu Er urged Liu Shui, but Liu Shui did not understand what ''I can''t make it''. He also knew that the anxious matter of the First Lady was a huge matter, so he immediately ran. He was already familiar with the road in Xi Mansion, so she chose the small road with no people and ran, and in a short while, he arrived at the backyard of Third Wife.


    "I''m looking for Third Wife." Liu Shui laughed and said.


    Just as Third Wife finished coaxing the child to sleep and heard Liu Shui come over, she let Liu Shui enter the room and push back the servants, leaving behind only her trusted aide, the Mother Fang, to accompany her. Liu Shui''s eyes were very bright, and his smile was very big ¡­ He felt like a little fox.


    "Third Wife, our Miss has a huge piece of good news for you. He even asked you to help him out!" Liu Shui grinned.


    "Finished speaking, Miss Jiu Er has instructed me to do this." Third Wife replied casually. Since Xi Jiu Er said that this was a heavenly good news, then she would like to hear what it was.


    "Does Third Wife know the Northern King Lin Family?" Liu Shui asked with a smile.


    North Wang Lin''s family? Third Wife felt that this name sounded familiar, but he couldn''t recall it. He asked: "Is it the Lin Family that does business with medicinal herbs?"


    "That''s right!" The Lin Clan''s head and wife have come to the capital. I heard that they are discussing about a big business deal. " Liu Shui grinned: "And the Lin Family''s leader, Lin Wei Ran, is First Lady''s sweetheart."


    Clank, the cup of tea in Third Wife''s hand was overturned right after it was served. Fortunately, the tea was already warm enough and had dyed the surface of her skirt with a large amount of ugly stains. Other than Liu Shui who noticed this, Third Wife and Mother Fang were extremely shocked. Oh my god, First Lady actually had an old sweetheart?


    "We, the Miss, only want the Third Wife to do nothing. We have our own Miss to handle this." Liu Shui was also very shocked when he first heard of this news.


    Third Wife returned to her senses and asked: "Is this old lover before or after marriage?" If it was nothing before marriage, who didn''t have a little bit of past? If it became interesting after marriage, then there would definitely be no chance for him to turn the situation around.


    "Miss didn''t say anything, but there''s no difference if you think about it. As long as you give me a primer, anything could happen." Liu Shui laughed: Servant has already replied to this matter, Servant is taking his leave.


    "I''ll make sure that Miss Jiu Er does not worry about this, I will definitely accomplish her tasks well!" The smile on the Third Wife''s face had become different. Liu Shui could not figure out what was different as she bowed and left.


    "Mother Fang, I feel that the good days of First Lady have come to an end." Third Wife covered his mouth and laughed heartily. As long as there was a clue to this, there would be a lot of possibilities, whether it was true or false, it was no longer important.


    "What enmity do you think Miss Jiu Er has with First Lady? Could it be that the mother of the Jiu Er Miss is... " The Third Wife only thought of this possibility: Revenge for his mother!


    "Third Wife, Miss Rong is here." The servant girl''s voice came from outside the door.


    "Let Miss Rong in." Third Wife said.


    This was truly a turning point of Feng Shui, he did not expect that he would still have a time to beg the Third Wife! Humph, but it won''t be long before she can take back everything that belongs to them.


    "Third Wife, mother''s condition has improved. I want to go to the temple to pay my respects to Bodhisattva." How was Xi Wan Rong''s attitude like he was begging for help? It was like an order. Third Wife was not angry at all. In any case, Xi Wan Rong and the others had Xi Jiu Er to take care of them, and he did not need to be angry with them.


    "En, this is to be expected. Let the Bodhisattva bless the First Lady and ensure his safety." Third Wife''s words were a little out of place, what did he mean by it being safe and sound? Xi Wan Rong didn''t care about it at all. He only wanted to go back and tell mother that he had made arrangements beforehand.


    "You''ve agreed?" Rong Er, come here ¡­ " First Lady whispered a few sentences into Xi Wan Rong''s ears, Xi Wan Rong nodded and said: "Don''t worry mother, your daughter will definitely take care of this properly."


    "Yes, you are the only one who can help mother now. Rong Er, you have grown up." Third Wife smiled with satisfaction and caressed Xi Wan Rong''s haggard face.


    During the night, Xi Hong Sheng came to see his precious son, Xi Ping. The child was bigger than the usual child, solidly built, and smarter. Right now, he looked more and more like Xi Hong Sheng, especially his eyes and eyebrows that looked like they were carved out of the same mold.


    Right now, Xi Hong Sheng was staying in Third Wife''s rooms more and more, but unfortunately, they couldn''t go to the same room for the next three months! In these few days, Third Wife had been paying attention to many women while taking care of the household''s affairs. There was actually such a girl who liked him and wanted to give him a look when he had time.


    "Look at my son, he''s so cute and smart. Right now, he''s already smiling at me. I don''t even know what he''s saying." Xi Hong Sheng hugged the child without letting go. Every day, he would tease the child for a long time before letting it go.


    "Hur hur, I guess Ping An is Banana''s father." The Third Wife laughed.


    At night, when Xi Hong Sheng stayed over at Third Wife''s place, Third Wife was a little overwhelmed by favor. Seeing that all of his thoughts were on his child, a sense of satisfaction and happiness involuntarily arose within him.


    In the middle of the night, when Xi Hong Sheng rolled around and realised that there was nothing beside him, he got up and looked behind the pearl curtain. Under the urge of curiosity, he sneaked his way over to listen to her carefully, only to hear her shout in a low voice from the Third Wife, "Don''t talk nonsense, where did this old thing come from? Xi Mao was the son of the Master. Even though he did not look like the Master, his bloodline was indeed the same. "Just sell that old woman to me tomorrow."


    Mother Fang said in a low voice: "Yes, this old servant will settle this matter tomorrow."


    "You too. Why can''t we talk about it tomorrow if it''s the middle of the night? Didn''t you see Master in my room today? " Third Wife scolded softly.


    It was the sound of someone slapping someone''s face, "It was this old servant''s fault, this old servant was wrong, this old servant did not think it through."


    "Alright, you can leave now. Don''t bring up this matter again." Third Wife said in a low voice: "Even if that old lady''s words are true, you should not believe her."


    "But Third Wife, that person spoke as if it was true. He is an old man from the clan, and after hearing her say that First Lady got married, she became worth it in the clan." The Mother Fang muttered.


    "Even if it''s like this for as long as it takes, we can''t say anything more." Third Wife bellowed, he could not hold back and raised his voice slightly, and then he said softly: "Did you hear that?"


    "Yes, this old servant understands. In the future, if I don''t say something like that, I will definitely rot it to the pit of my stomach." Mother Fang withdrew.


    "Sigh, I hope this matter is false." The Third Wife muttered to himself, then he got up and went back to bed. Xi Hong Sheng pretended to have just woken up. "What''s wrong?"


    "It''s fine. When you wake up, go and see if your child is sleeping well." Third Wife leaned over gently. "It was me who woke Master up."


    "No problem, go to sleep." Xi Hong Sheng said in a gloomy tone.


    "Yes." In the darkness, the Third Wife silently revealed a smile. This matter had probably already buried a seed in Xi Hong Sheng''s heart, and there would be a day when this seed would take root.


    In the morning of the second day, Xi Hong Sheng caught Mother Fang. Fortunately, Mother Fang had made preparations in advance, and said fearfully: "This old servant doesn''t know what Master is saying."


    "You old thing, quickly tell me. I clearly heard what you two were mumbling about last night, master and servant. Tell me the truth now." When Xi Hong Sheng asked Mother Fang, he said that he did not know and was so angry that he kicked him hard.


    "But ¡­" Mother Fang was still hesitating when she was kicked by Xi Hong Sheng again. She did not pretend to be reserved and said: "It''s like this, last night, I was supposed to be a servant on duty, but I heard a servant say in the middle of the night that an old woman got drunk, and started babbling nonsense, like a little Young Master ¡­ Little Young Master is not the child of Master ¡­ The old servant was told that the man was tied up and came to report to the Madame. "


    He still remembered he had mentioned Xi Mao before. No matter how he looked at it, this child did not resemble him at all. They all said that he looked like a mother, and other than the fact that he looked a little like the First Lady, he didn''t look like her at all. Could it be that Xi Mao really wasn''t his own son? No, he had to make things clear. This was a bloodline that couldn''t be sloppy.


    Xi Hong Sheng asked: "Where is he?"


    Mother Fang immediately said: "Please forgive this Master, I was already selling this early in the morning, this old servant does not know where I am. "Wait for this old servant to go and find him."


    "Why aren''t you going yet?" Xi Hong Sheng was upset, and went to the courtyard of the Old Madame. The old Madame was surprised to hear that, logically speaking, he should already be in charge now.


    "Master?" Old Madame looked at his son''s face, who looked as if he had just eaten a fly, and waved his hand for the servants to leave. Xi Hong Sheng sat on his butt, "mother, my son suspects that Xi Mao is not his son''s biological son!"


    The old Madame was startled and immediately said, "Master, do you know what you are saying? This is no trivial matter. You have no proof, so you can''t speak carelessly. "


    "Does mother remember Mao''er was a premature infant?" Xi Hong Sheng recalled, "Mao''er was born seven months ago, but when he was born, he was like a full-fledged child, don''t you think that''s strange?"


    "It''s nothing. Some children look good, but look at how good they look. They don''t look like two months old children at all. They''re smart." Old Madame Xi Ping smiled whenever she was mentioned.


    "But Xi Mao isn''t like me at all, nor is he like her. This is unreasonable." Xi Hong Sheng panicked and said: "There is one thing that I don''t know whether or not I should tell you. First Lady and I made a full marriage and it was not completely red."


    "You, why didn''t you say so earlier?" The fact that a woman didn''t turn red proved that she was an unclean and unfaithful person. It was no small matter. Old Madame straightened her body.

 C134

    "Son... "Son ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng''s old face reddened, and he found it hard to say anything. At that time, he didn''t think about it, and only focused on what the two of them should do. However, as time passed by, he also continued to marry many women, and his attitude slowly began to change.


    First Lady thought for a while with a dark expression: "Investigate, this matter must be investigated thoroughly, if not, wouldn''t the Xi Family''s bloodline become a mess in the future?" He turned his head and ordered the mother of joy, "Go and find the seniors that the Xi Mansion served in the past. I already felt that it was strange that they were kicked out by the First Lady that year.


    Looking for the old man was a little difficult, but it wasn''t impossible. His heart was in shock, if there really was such a thing, then the First Lady would no longer be able to stand even a hair''s breadth above the Xi Family, and this had also become a great disgrace to the Xi Family.


    There was no way to know what was happening here. She was still immersed in the excitement of meeting her lover. She could dress up and think that she couldn''t be rude in front of someone she liked. He hadn''t seen her in so many years. Did he remember? Did he remember it in his heart? Did he know that Rong Er was his flesh and blood?


    He had once said that as long as she needed him, he would unconditionally come and help her. Did he still remember his initial promise? When the carriage came to the temple, Xi Wan Rong went to worship Buddha while the First Lady waited restlessly in the side room. This feeling was very torturous. She was ugly, and she no longer had the beauty she had when she was young. Would he despise her? Her figure was no longer as graceful as before. Did she look like an old woman?


    "Creaak."


    First Lady felt as if he was suffocating as he blankly stared at the elegant South Central man in front of the door. His face slowly turned red from excitement.


    "Qing Jun ¡­" The person who came was the manager of the Northern King''s Lin Family''s pharmacy, Lin Wei Ran. He called out First Lady''s nickname, excitedly embracing the beauty he hadn''t seen for many years: "How have you been all these years?"


    "But ¡­" First Lady smelled that familiar smell and cried out, "Not good, I''m not doing well at all."


    "Come, tell me." The woman in front of him was much more haggard, much paler, and her eyes were dim and lifeless. Thinking about it, his life was not going well.


    First Lady found someone to pour out their heart to, and told her all about how he took care of Xi Jiu Er and how Xi Jiu Er had bitten back at him, "Wuwuwu ¡­ I was truly blind. I treated her with all of my heart, but I didn''t expect her to be like this. She actually tried to murder me again and again. Truly hateful. "Of course, you have to help me. Help me get rid of her, or else I won''t have a good life in the future."


    "Alright, alright, alright. I''ll definitely think of a way to get rid of her!" Hearing that his lover had led such a miserable life, he really wanted to kill this Xi Jiu Er brat. He lifted First Lady''s face and wiped her tears.


    "Don''t cry anymore. I feel like my heart is about to shatter from crying." Lin Wei Ran said in heartache.


    It was as if First Lady had returned to her youth, that kind of sweet and heart-stirring feeling. It had been many years since Xi Hong Sheng had cared about her, or given her any sweet words. Xi Hong Sheng and Lin Wei Ran were extremely different, Lin Wei Ran was gentle and caring, and what did Xi Hong Sheng know? Nothing. Lin Wei Ran was the person who understood her the most!


    "But ¡­"


    "Qing Jun ¡­"


    What happened next made sense ¡­


    Xi Wan Rong, who had returned to his residence and was warned by his First Lady, "Rong Er, the Lin Family will send a doctor over in a few days. They will tell everyone that I have already healed. And your Uncle Lin has already promised mother that he will help him out ¡­ " After saying that, he made a throat slitting gesture.


    Xi Wan Rong became excited: "mother, that''s great, as long as we don''t have Xi Jiu Er, then the only one left would be Third Wife, and then everything that belongs to us will not fall."


    "So you need to calm down, and don''t tell your sister, because of the disfigurement she became a completely different person. If you tell her that the news was leaked, then we won''t be able to pay for it, do you understand?" Speaking of his own eldest daughter, First Lady couldn''t help but feel a sense of sorrow. Once things were settled, he would find the best person he could for Xi Wan Feng, and he would definitely be able to heal the wound on his face. Then there was Mao, whom all the doctors in the world had been asking for to keep an eye on her son''s illness.


    "Don''t worry mother, this time my daughter will definitely not say anything." Xi Wan Rong said firmly.


    The mansion seemed no different from normal, but it was already a storm in the dark. A storm was brewing! With a rumble, thunder suddenly resounded in the sky. Xi Jiu Er looked at the sky and said, "It''s going to change the sky!"


    Three days later, Xi Wan Rong called for a doctor, and Lin Wei Ran came along as well. Lin Wei Ran and Xi Hong Sheng could be considered to be old acquaintances. They had not met each other for many years, and the moment they met, they started laughing merrily. Lin Wei Ran said: "It''s a coincidence that I met Miss Rong today, and since Miss Rong is looking for a doctor, I had Doctor Shen come with me."


    "But who is not feeling well?" Lin Wei Ran asked with a smile.


    "Hehe ¨C but my wife is not feeling well." Xi Hong Sheng did not want others to know that First Lady had gone mad. He had always done his job of keeping the secret, so as to not let others know, he became the laughingstock of everyone.


    "Oh ¡­" So it''s sister-in-law. " Lin Wei Ran saw that Xi Hong Sheng did not care about her at all, and inwardly cursed Li Jun for being blind to see such a man who did not care about her.


    "Brother Lin, what''s wrong?" Are you not feeling well? " Seeing that Lin Wei Ran''s expression was not good, Xi Hong Sheng could not help but to ask out of curiosity.


    "Nothing." Lin Wei Ran laughed heartily as he brought the topic up to heart-nourishing hall. He basically wanted to say that he wanted to join the heart-nourishing hall and hope that Xi Hong Sheng would agree. Xi Hong Sheng was a person with good face, of course he wouldn''t be stupid enough to tell others that the heart-nourishing hall was his daughter''s shop, it had nothing to do with him, if he wanted to look for her, he had to. However, when he recalled that he was her father, he had to listen to whatever her father said.


    Hearing that, Lin Wei Ran''s face looked much better.


    "It''s been a long time. The doctor should have finished his treatment by now ¡­" As soon as Lin Wei Ran finished speaking, Xi Wan Rong brought Doctor Shen over, saying that First Lady had been affected and lost consciousness because of what he had done, and was now gradually recovering, and would probably recover in a few days.


    "Is that so? "That''s good." Xi Hong Sheng didn''t have much of an expression on his face.


    "Brother Xi, since you are done, I will take my leave." Lin Wei Ran cupped his hands as he prepared to leave, but was stopped by Xi Hong Sheng: "It''s rare for us to meet again, why are you leaving just like that? You really don''t put me in your eyes, no matter what you say tonight, the two of us will definitely get drunk."


    "You can''t ¡­" Lin Wei Ran was happy in his heart, but he did not say in such a way.


    "What can''t I do? It''s decided then! "Come, let''s go to the next two sets." Without saying a word, Xi Hong Sheng dragged Lin Wei Ran to his study to play chess. After that, the servants informed Third Wife that Lin Wei Ran wanted to eat at his place. Third Wife rolled his eyes and said, "Go and ask the servants beside Master Lin and ask them what Master likes to eat. We can also follow his taste."


    "Yes."


    Mother Fang laughed: "Madame, look at this ¡­"


    "This is a chance, to use the good First Lady and never see the light of day." Third Wife smirked: "Go ask the Great Miss yourself if there''s anything she needs me to do." This was a huge matter and she didn''t know what Xi Jiu Er''s goal was. She didn''t want to ruin her plan and give up such a good opportunity for nothing.


    "Yes."


    and Lin Wei Ran were drinking and chatting merrily in the pavilion at night. Lin Wei Ran''s alcohol tolerance was much higher than Xi Hong Sheng''s. Seeing Xi Hong Sheng''s red face from drinking, she couldn''t help but remind him: "Master Xi, you''re already drunk."


    "Drunk? "I''m not drunk, I''m very happy to see you today, Brother Lin. Come and have a drink with us." "Burp ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Hong Sheng burped with a red face and thick neck.


    Seeing that Xi Hong Sheng was stubborn, Lin Wei Ran did not say anything, but you wanted to drink? Fine, I''ll let you get drunk to death today! Thus, the two of them began to bicker! In the end, Xi Hong Sheng''s vision turned black and he fainted.


    On the other hand, Lin Wei Ran calmly sat on the ground and instructed, "Your Master is drunk, hurry up and bring your Master back."


    Xi Hong Sheng left... Lin Wei Ran''s heart had already flown to where the First Lady was at. Was it better for him to think about her? Did she think about each other as much as I did?


    "Master Lin?" A maid hurried over and said in a low voice, "Master Lin, my Madame asked for this to be given to you. If you saw it, you naturally would know."


    "What are you talking about!" It was not that Lin Wei Ran was suspicious, but he was afraid that this was the whole thing. Then he would be ruined, his family and his career ruined.


    The servant girl only said, "Madame wants Servant to tell you ¡­ "Eastwood Little Bamboo Forest ¡­" With that, he gave the kernels in his hands to Lin Wei Ran and quickly left. Lin Wei Ran heard from the servant that the Little Bamboo Forest in the Eastern Forest Region was something that the First Lady had sent. Xi Mansion did not come to the Eastern Forest Small Bamboo Forest anymore. One must know that the benefactor of this place was an old man. Moreover, there were many small bamboo forests in the Xi Mansion that were just like the small bamboo forests in the east forest direction. It seemed that the First Lady had invited him to go.


    The words on it could also be written by First Lady ¡­


    "Miss, everything has been completed ¡­" Liu Shui could not help but exclaim, "Then it''s strange that Miss has been imitating First Lady''s handwriting this whole time.


    First Lady''s handwriting seemed to be no different from normal, but in reality, if one looked carefully, they would discover that there were some other ways of writing First Lady''s handwriting. After practicing seriously for a few days, she chose to write with those words alone. It was more than enough to fool Lin Wei Ran. After so many years, some changes in the handwriting were still normal. As long as the words remained unchanged, it would be fine.

 C135

    Deep in the night, First Lady arrived alone at a place like the Eastern Forest Bamboo Forest. Borrowing the moonlight, she saw a figure standing not too far away.


    "Qing Jun ¡­" When Lin Wei Ran turned around, the moonlight shone in that pair of gentle eyes, causing First Lady to immediately become intoxicated from it. His body softened and he fell into Lin Wei Ran''s embrace, "If I miss you so much, I''ll miss you so much.


    "It''s okay, I was just worried about you. I thought that you would live a good life after marrying Xi Hong Sheng, but it looks like my decision at the beginning was wrong. I shouldn''t have let go and let go of everything to marry you back! " Lin Wei Ran said with a sentimental look on his face, as he tightly embraced First Lady.


    "Not yet ¡­" "We can''t go back ¡­" First Lady was sad to hear it. He was the direct descendent of the Wang Family and was only a merchant. His family background was too low, so he did not agree to be together with Lin Wei Ran. After obstructing her multiple times, she married Xi Hong Sheng to play the string. At that time, there was also a part of it that was filled with anger. However, in his heart, he still could not let Lin Wei Ran go. After hearing that Lin Wei Ran was also married, he felt so jealous that he went crazy.


    "Not yet, not yet. Do you love your wife?" First Lady cried, as though her beloved baby had been stolen away.


    Lin Wei Ran immediately hugged her and comforted her, "Don''t cry, don''t cry ¡­ My heart is about to break from all the crying. How could I love her? I''ve always loved you from the beginning to the end. " Towards that gentle and kind wife, Lin Wei Ran, he did not say that he did not love her, but rather, he respected her.


    "Is that so? "I''m not lying." First Lady said, not giving up.


    "I won''t lie to you." Lin Wei Ran emotionally replied. Holding First Lady''s teary face, she emotionally shouted. "Qing Jun, Qing Jun, I have never forgotten about you ¡­" The delicate figure in his embrace ignited the desire in his heart that had always been there. The two of them were entangled with each other passionately. It was as if they were fighting each other over everything that had happened.


    "Qing Jun ¡­"


    "But ¡­"


    Just as the two of them were unable to part, they suddenly realized that there was movement around them. They were frightened and looked at each other, unsure of what was happening. "Woo woo woo ¡­" It was as if someone was speaking. This time, both their faces turned pale. It was really a human voice.


    "Let''s go take a look." Lin Wei Ran whispered. The two of them looked for the source of the sound and saw a black shadow in the grass. The one who made the noise was this black shadow. Borrowing the moonlight, First Lady saw the pair of angry eyes and immediately cried out in fear, his entire body trembling in fear.


    "What''s wrong ¡­" Lin Wei Ran asked in confusion. He did not know how there could be a person here. He truly wanted to find a way to make that person silently die.


    "Yes, it''s the Master ¡­" First Lady felt that the sky was about to fall, and it was actually Xi Hong Sheng! Why was he here? How much did he hear? If he heard it all, he must have heard it all. It''s over, it''s all over. First Lady''s brain instinctively said, "Master, what happened was not what you thought. Nothing happened ¡­"


    "Qing Jun ¡­" Lin Wei Ran pulled First Lady who was still in shock and whispered, "I saw him being tied up, and guessed it was some kind of thief. How could Lin Wei Ran''s eyes be gentle under the moonlight? The viciousness of the attack twisted his entire face, causing First Lady to tremble in fear. "Don''t, what if someone discovers us, you and I will not be able to escape."


    "You''re crazy. Do you think he''ll let us go?" Lin Wei Ran''s eyes were wide open as he said angrily: "If you don''t want to, I''ll do it."


    "Don''t ¡­" The First Lady did not have a good idea, and could only shout to reject. Lin Wei Ran had already found a good boulder, he planned to smash Xi Hong Sheng to death. Just then, there was a commotion outside, many people were holding torches, the first to rush over was Xi Jiu Er!


    "Father, father ¡­" Xi Jiu Er shouted.


    When the First Lady saw that something was amiss, he immediately pulled Lin Wei Ran away and said: "Quickly leave, someone is coming." The strength behind the blow was so strong that Lin Wei Ran almost fell to the ground. He was not familiar with the road, so the First Lady brought him to the back door and opened the door. "You still haven''t seen each other today, and I don''t know when we''ll meet again. I just want to tell you, I love you! "Also, Wan Rong is your child ¡­" Just as Lin Wei Ran was stunned, First Lady suddenly pushed him out of the door and closed it with a clank.


    "Qing Jun!" Qing Jun! "Open the door! I want to face it together with you, Qingjun ¡­"


    First Lady''s eyes flowed with tears as he quickly returned to his courtyard. Wang Ma was still dozing off when she was startled awake. "Madame, you ¡­" First Lady held both of Wang Ma''s hands and said: "Wang Ma, if I have anything, you must take care of my child for me, especially Wan Rong, do you know?"


    Wang Ma still did not understand what had happened as he nodded and said, "Don''t worry, this old servant will treat Miss and little Young Master as his own children."


    "Yes." In a moment, no matter what happens, you will just say that you don''t know, understand? " The despair in First Lady''s eyes infected him. Wang Ma endured the shock in his heart and asked: "First Lady, what happened? Don''t scare this old servant. "


    "This time, I have completely fallen into Xi Jiu Er''s hands!" First Lady laughed self-deprecatingly: "Wang Ma remembers my words, you can go now. No matter what happens later, you must not come out.


    "Madame ¡­"


    "Hurry up, what are you waiting for?" The First Lady shouted in anger.


    "Yes, this old servant will go now." Only after Wang Ma went outside did he find out that Xi Hong Sheng was kidnapped by someone in the study, and they were all looking for him. Wang Ma went to Xi Wan Rong''s courtyard. Xi Wan Rong frowned and asked: "Wang Ma, what are you doing here?"


    "It was Madame who brought this old servant here ¡­ As for what matter this Madame has not said. " Wang Ma was also clueless about one thing and three things.


    "Is that so? mother is so weird. " Xi Wan Rong asked in confusion.


    First Lady sat alone in her room, waiting for Xi Hong Sheng to arrive. At this moment, she thought about many things, and laughed at herself in the end. She didn''t expect herself to fall on Xi Jiu Er''s body in the end. In order to bring him down, he even dared to kidnap Xi Hong Sheng.


    Bang! The door was kicked open by Xi Hong Sheng. The candle on the table flickered... Xi Hong Sheng''s face, which was so dark that water could drip from it, revealed a hint of unique terror in the darkness of the night. With a flip of his hand, he pushed the door open, swung his whip and walked towards First Lady step by step, cursing: "Bitch, you actually stole from behind my back!"


    "Pah pah pah", after a few whips, First Lady''s face immediately turned white. In fact, she wanted to quibble, but Xi Hong Sheng had seen everything and heard everything. Gritting his teeth, Xi Hong Sheng sat on the bed without moving an inch. He walked over and pulled her hair down, looking her straight in the eye. Those eyes contained too much hatred and anger, First Lady''s terrified body had already started to tremble.


    "I really didn''t expect that my wife would have a relationship with a friend that I call ''brother'', and I was kept in the dark. That''s great."


    That night, the sound of women''s screams and slaps continuously came from First Lady''s rooms. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng lay at the entrance and tried to hit them hard to get Xi Hong Sheng to open the door, but they did not respond. The sound of the whip continuously sounded, startling the servants of the mansion and causing them to panic. Third Wife was also begging Xi Hong Sheng to bypass First Lady. The old Madame who was leaning on her walking stick cursed at the door, "Bastard thing, why aren''t you stopping, do you hear me?"


    Xi Jiu Er muttered in front of mother of joy''s ears, mother of joy looked at Xi Jiu Er in shock, Xi Jiu Er nodded her head to indicate that something happened. mother of joy swallowed her saliva and passed on what Xi Jiu Er had told her to the old Madame. The old Madame''s face suddenly paled as she swore while leaning on her staff, "Let''s go, beat this shameless bastard to death. Serves him right."


    The change in the old Madame was too fast, shocking everyone. mother of joy brought Old Madame back to her courtyard. Along the way, she kept telling him not to be angry. Xi Wan Rong immediately stood up and cursed: "Xi Jiu Er, you slut, what did you say to Grandmother? Isn''t she making arrangements for the mother again? "


    Xi Jiu Er did not pay any attention to it. Listening to the First Lady''s miserable voice inside, she felt that it was especially pleasing to the ears. When the sky was about to brighten, there was finally no movement inside the house. When she opened the door, she saw Xi Hong Sheng panting and sweating as she said: "Men, go and send Xi Mao back to the manor. He is not allowed to come back without my orders." The whip in his hand was already glistening with blood.


    "Father, don''t ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was the first to react to the severity of the matter. He immediately wanted to stop her, but was kicked by Xi Hong Sheng: "Scram."


    Xi Wan Rong didn''t dare to make a request. Instead, he enunciated each word clearly: "From today onwards, First Lady will be ''recuperating'' me. She is not allowed to take even half a step outside the courtyard gate without my permission. After saying this, he swung the whip and left.


    Just as Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng were about to enter, they were stopped by Xi Jiu Er. "What are you two waiting for? Now that she was the boss of the Third Wife, the Third Wife knew that the events that occurred a few nights were not normal. Then he said: "Go, bring the two Miss s back. Let them properly reflect on their actions in their own rooms without my permission."


    "Yes."


    "You dare." Xi Wan Rong scolded loudly: "What rights do you have? You have no right at all! "


    "What are you waiting for?" Third Wife shouted.


    After the Third Wife had been cleaned, Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui slowly into the house. The house was a mess, with First Lady lying on the ground with his hair in a mess, on the verge of death. A pair of embroidered shoes appeared in front of him. He raised his head and spoke out like a mosquito, "Alright, Xi Jiu Er, I lost to you."


    "First Lady, I have something to give you ¡­" Xi Jiu Er took out something from her bosom: "This thing can make people''s consciousness become extremely clear, but it can make people completely powerless to move."


    "What do you want?" First Lady asked.


    "I don''t want to do anything. It''s not over yet ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly.


    Third Wife waited on the left and on the right for Xi Jiu Er to finally come out as she smiled and said, "Miss Jiu Er."


    "Third Wife, let me speak with you." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. The two of them came under a tree and spoke a few words, causing the Third Wife to exclaim in shock, "She''s gone mad." She actually dared to poison the old Madame for a few years. Oh my god, she actually had such shrewdness. If it was him, she might not be able to do it. Once this matter was exposed, the First Lady would never have another chance to turn the situation around.


    "I''m leaving." Xi Jiu Er smiled lightly: "Take good care of First Lady!"


    On the second day, the evidence that the First Lady poisoned the old Madame was conclusive, and the latter fainted on the spot ¡­ How long has it been since you woke up? The palace sent a message for Xi Jiu Er to receive the decree.

 C136

    Xi Jiu Er entering the palace to receive rewards left everyone stunned. Strange, what rewards would she bestow, what rewards would she bestow? At this time, everyone suddenly realized that the imperial government had yet to give her an explanation on how Xi Jiu Er cured the smallpox. It had already been almost half a year, the reward really made one feel that it was worth it.


    The news of Xi Hong Sheng wearing a green hat had already spread through the streets and alleys. Not only did the person raise his own son for so many years, he even treated his wife''s lover as a good brother. For a moment, everyone was saying that Xi Hong Sheng was extremely foolish.


    It could be said that the Xi Family was a mess due to the miasma. The first talented girl had ruined her face, and she was not the prettiest girl in the world. Her reputation was not as great as it was in the past. And the son of the direct descendant of the Xi Family? Since Xi Mao was not Xi Hong Sheng''s biological son, the fact that she had lost 70,000 silver to the fighting cricket was something to be kept in the dark.


    As for Xi Wu Er, who had gotten married a few months ago, his days were not good after hearing about it. There was a time when Madame invited her to a feast and found that her body was covered with bruises, as well as shallow and deep fingerprints.


    The only one who didn''t have any messy information was Xi Jiu Er, who gave off a very comfortable and friendly feeling. She was well-versed in manners and received the praise of many Madame. Calculating the reputation of Xi Jiu Er''s children, it could be said that she did not fix the ancestors'' graves, and only then was she able to bring up these children of her!


    At this time, Xi Jiu Er entered the palace to bestow rewards, causing the defeated Xi Mansion to see a halo of hope! On this day, after Xi Jiu Er was properly dressed and paid respects to the old Madame, the old Madame said with tears in her eyes, "Child, you have to be careful in everything you do. Remember not to piss His Majesty off or else no one will be able to save you from whatever happens, do you know?" Although it seemed as if she cared a lot about her granddaughter, Xi Jiu Er knew that it was just to make sure that she did not make any mistakes.


    "Once she knows about Grandmother, her granddaughter will definitely act with caution." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    "Right." Old Madame was worried, but seeing Xi Jiu Er''s calm face, she did not seem to be afraid of her.


    Third Wife was also a little terrified. It was said that a little carelessness could cause a calamity to his family. The Third Wife said softly, "Miss Jiu Er, I''ve already asked my father''s people to make some preparations in the palace. If there''s anything else, you can go find esteemed Empress Su. "It''s not a favor, but the master of the palace ¡­" Empress Su was the first woman His Majesty had chosen for the first round of concubines. It had been many years since she''d won a favor.


    Xi Jiu Er was slightly moved by the relationship the Third Wife had with him. That was because she was truly concerned about her and couldn''t fake it. Her heart grew excited, "Don''t worry Third Wife, I will be careful."


    "Mm, Wei Guogong will also protect you for a bit. Moreover, His Majesty gave you a reward this time. Did he say he was punishing you?" The old Madame said, "It''s getting late, let''s go."


    ex-sister-in-law had once said that if she could help her take revenge, then her enemy would be Tian Jia. Now that she thought about it, she had been too naive back then. However, since it was something she had agreed to, it was more important that she think of a way to do it. After about half an hour''s journey, they could see the towering glazed palace!


    Creak creak - The thick and heavy palace doors opened with a creaking sound. The first palace door had already been opened, then the second palace door, the third palace door! Finally, Liu Shui helped Xi Jiu Er up the long corridor, and at the end of the corridor was the place where the imperial edict was read out.


    The palace was huge, and not every place was guarded. Only after passing through the corridor did he see the silhouette of a person. A white-masked man dressed in eunuch robes asked: "Is this the Xi Family, Miss?"


    "It''s really Jiu Er." Xi Jiu Er bowed towards the eunuch, and the eunuch smiled: "Miss Jiu Er, follow me inside, His Majesty is waiting for you in the imperial study."


    "Thank you for your troubles, Eunuch!" Xi Jiu Er gave Liu Shui a meaningful glance, and Liu Shui took out two banknotes worth five hundred gold and gave it to him.


    "These are for eunuchs to sleep in, I hope that eunuch does not mind Jiu Er''s little intentions." Xi Jiu Er''s face was as calm as water, her voice was pleasant to the ear like spring water, and the Lotus Root Starlight Dress made her skin especially tender. She thought to himself, "What a unique woman."


    Hehe, Miss Jiu Er, please follow me. The eunuch laughed.


    All along the way, the palace maids and eunuchs would always call him Eunuch Hai, which seemed to have a very high status. Xi Jiu Er followed Eunuch Hai to the royal study! The imperial study was not big, Xi Jiu Er took a quick glance and lowered her head.


    The man clad in a bright yellow robe was currently reading the memorial. The Eunuch Hai said softly, "Your Majesty, this servant has brought Miss Jiu Er."


    "Hm." A simple word, low and powerful. As if possessed by an inconceivable magic power, Xi Jiu Er raised her head and coincidentally saw the sky: It was the face of a handsome man who did not lose his dignity. About 20 years old. Her eyebrows were like that of a phoenix, and her nose was peaked with thin lips. It was truly a memorable sight to behold.


    "Eunuch Hai, read the imperial edict." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently.


    "Yes." Eunuch Hai walked in front of the table and found a red gold silk book, opened his mouth and sang, "On the day of the Emperor''s Mandate, the Xi Empire''s Jiu Er has bestowed meritorious service to the empire, saving the citizens in the fire and water. We hereby reward you with ten thousand silver taels, five thousand gold taels, five good brocade and Su embroidery, and also a mansion in the east suburbs. Gift: Princess Laifu - Tribute. "


    Xi Jiu Er knelt down and expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, my Emperor." Princess Laifu? Do you think she''s a dog?


    Eunuch Hai handed the imperial edict to a young eunuch at the side, who started singing it loudly outside the imperial study. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently: "All of you can leave, I would like to speak with Princess Laifu."


    "Yes." When the people from Eunuch Hai left, Liu Shui looked worriedly at Xi Jiu Er and followed along.


    Xi Jiu Er lowered her head and waited for Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s reply. Waiting, waiting, waiting, a man''s pair of black boots suddenly appeared in front of him. The boots were embroidered with the yellow pattern of two dragons playing with pearls. Don''t even mention it, the embroidery of the lady in the palace was really beautiful. It was so beautiful!


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge stood in front of Xi Jiu Er for the majority of the day, but then he realised that this woman was only lowering her head and did not speak. After half a day, he could not help but ask: "What are you doing?"


    "Studying these two dragon opera pearls, don''t even mention how good one''s embroidery is." Xi Jiu Er said very seriously. Suddenly, she heard a few laughs above her head. Only then did she realize where she was.


    "Xi Jiu Er, you are truly bold, we are standing in front of you and you actually dare to study that Dragon Taming Orb? You don''t even put us in your eyes." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge pretended to be furious.


    Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said, "Ah, unjustly accused, why didn''t maidservant put His Majesty in his eyes? Look, maidservant was even observing the Dual Dragons Drama Beads, which means that there''s something in His Majesty''s heart! "


    "Hmph, such a glib tongue." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge gave a cold snort, "Get up."


    "Thank you, your majesty the Emperor." Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up.


    "Let me show you something. Do you have an impression of it?" A jade pendant appeared in Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s hand. The jade pendant was Heart''s Lock, and Bai Ruyu was a high rank one. Xi Jiu Er was startled. "Your Majesty, why is the maidservant''s jade pendant on you?"


    This jade pendant belonged to her mother. After she was reborn, she had never seen this jade pendant again. Why did it appear in Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s hands?


    "Have you forgotten?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge looked at Xi Jiu Er with a smile that was not a smile.


    For some reason, there was something wrong with Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s eyes, which made Xi Jiu Er, who wanted to trick him, more cautious. But after thinking about it for a long time, seeing that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face was turning darker and darker, she forced out a smile. Your Majesty ¡­ maidservant was previously injured in the head so I can''t remember a lot of things ¡­ "


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s gaze instantly became as sharp as a sword, whizzing over, as though he wanted to see through it. In any case, he had never done anything shameful, so what was there to be afraid of?


    "Hah!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge coldly snorted, "Since you dare to forget!"


    Eh, could it be that she had done something very excessive and offended Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge? Xi Jiu Er did not dare to speak carelessly, and only dryly laughed a few times. Suddenly, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s expression changed as he said indifferently, "Lucky ¡­"


    Pfft, Xi Jiu Er''s expression froze. Why does it feel like His Majesty calling me ''Laifu'' is calling me a dog? said: "I heard from Prince Xian that you are an expert in medicine, is there a problem?"


    "Prince Xian, he ¡­ This is a misunderstanding, maidservant has only read a few medical books, how can it be considered as extraordinary in terms of medical skills? " Xi Jiu Er said with a serious face: "It was just a fluke."


    "Hmph, it was a fluke. You sure are capable." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s words seemed to be filled with ridicule: "What do you think of Prince Xian? Do you want me to betroth you to him? You once told me that the Prince Xian was an elegant and graceful man, and that you wanted to marry him. "


    "Huh?" Xi Jiu Er was startled. When did she say she was going to marry the Prince Xian? And she and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge knew each other before? Wasn''t this the first time they had met.


    Xi Jiu Er was suspicious in her heart, but seeing Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s serious face, she said: "It''s good that Prince Xian is fine, but maidservant does not like him.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s expression instantly changed to that of a sunny day, and he asked with interest: What''s wrong with Prince Xian, why don''t you like him?


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, the Prince Xian was actually not bad, she was pretty good-looking, and her status was good, although she was a little flowery, but who wouldn''t?


    "The husband that the maidservant wants is someone only he has in his entire life. He will never leave and will never let go of each other." Xi Jiu Er softly revealed the words in her heart, "This maidservant just wants this kind of husband.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was startled for a moment before immediately rejecting: "That''s impossible, it''s normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Your request is really too difficult."


    "maidservant doesn''t feel that, if he truly likes maidservant, his heart would definitely be filled with maidservant. How can he allow other women to live with him? When I saw him with other women, I would be sad, I would cry. Would he be willing to see me cry? If maidservant cannot find such a person, then we might as well just marry him. "


    "Alright, don''t tell me about this. There will be a Royal Hunt in a few days. As the County Lord, come and see me." "Alright, you can go now." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said impatiently.


    Xi Jiu Er withdrew. Once she got back to her residence and received this news, the old Madame was extremely happy as well. This daughter of theirs, whom they had never put in their eyes, was the one who had given them the most face! Princess, your rank is about the same as Xi Hong Sheng''s.


    "Liu Shui, quickly tell this good news to mother, and let him be happy for me." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Yes."


    When they gave Xi Jiu Er a celebratory dinner later that night, Third Wife suggested to release Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng, the old Madame was immediately displeased. Would I be able to eat if they came? Can you get up? "


    "Yes, it''s because I didn''t consider everything." Third Wife lowered his head and said meekly.


    "Alright, alright, don''t say it!" "Eat, eat." The old Madame laughed and said. Everyone is happy to have a meal... On the other hand, Xi Wan Rong was extremely furious, he had almost smashed everything in his house, Xi Wan Feng did not make any movements, only her servant was having her eyes turn red. One could see the bruises and bruises on his wrists.

 C137

    Xi Jiu Er was participating in the hunt as the Princess Laifu, so they, as female servants, were powerless to do anything but watch from the outside. Liu Shui looked at the hunting grounds with excitement: "Princess, Servant also wants to go hunting too."


    Yun Qing Ran accompanied the Lady Yun in the back. Since she had something to do, Chu Ge could not come anymore ¡­ For a moment, he felt bored.


    Some ladies who knew how to ride horses could go to the hunting grounds to hunt if they were not afraid of the danger. Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Shui and asked excitedly: "Is the hunt fun?"


    "Yeah, there are a lot of animals. If we''re lucky, we can even hunt a white fox." Liu Shui''s eyes were filled with anticipation: "However, the White Fox rarely appears. It is a very intelligent beast and knows of dangerous places, so it definitely won''t appear."


    "Other than the white fox, what else do you have?" She just so happened to want to find Qiu Qiu a beast with flesh. If she really caught something, she would be able to keep it by her side. Thinking of this, his heart began to jump with joy.


    "There''s still a lot more ¡­" "It depends on the situation." With that, Liu Shui looked towards a certain direction with wide eyes. Xi Jiu Er followed her gaze and saw a white fur on the tree, before she could even see what it looked like, she heard the crowd become restless.


    "Heavens, is that a white fox?"


    "There''s a white fox?"


    "It was too fast. I didn''t even have the time to clearly see what it looked like before. All I saw was a blur before my eyes and I was already running away."


    "I also didn''t have the time to see it clearly."


    Liu Shui said excitedly: "Princess, that''s a White Fox, did you see that? It''s a white fox! "


    "I didn''t see it clearly, but I knew it was a cute little thing." Xi Jiu Er thought that Qiu Qiu being on top of her would definitely be extremely cute and lovable.


    "I really want to go and take a look." Liu Shui said with a bit of yearning, which made Xi Jiu Er''s heart itch a little too! Lala Liu Shui said, "Let''s go hunting as well."


    "Eh?"


    Xi Jiu Er ordered some people to bring him a small, gentle mare. With Liu Shui by his side, he estimated that there were a lot of big problems. Thus, one man, one horse, they began to hunt.


    "Is the person who just left the palace the Princess Laifu?"


    "Isn''t that so? "He actually went hunting, he really doesn''t know what''s good for him. If there''s something ¡­" Everyone was well aware of what was going on. Not only were there a lot of wild beasts in the hunting grounds, but there were also times when blades and swords did not have eyes.


    "Sigh ¡­" From the looks of it, they should be going to see the white fox. "


    "It''s not worth it to throw away your life just to look at an animal."


    "Maybe that white fox was hunted by the Princess Laifu, hahahaha ¡­"


    The crowd had already started to discuss how Xi Jiu Er overestimated herself, all of them talking about it, some were gloating, some were watching the show, and some were thinking that if Xi Jiu Er could hunt a white fox, it would also be her fortune.


    The hunting grounds was very big. Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui rode their horses and wandered around the hunting grounds. Liu Shui''s excitement had already passed, why couldn''t he hold it in? It''s better now, even the princess came in ¡­ He looked around cautiously.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at his surroundings. Other than the towering trees, the only other thing that she had in his surroundings was a tree. Xi Jiu Er raised her head and looked left and right. Suddenly, she saw something white on top of it.


    Liu Shui looked towards the direction Xi Jiu Er pointed. It was indeed the white fox!


    "Liu Shui, how do you think we should be able to capture it?" Xi Jiu Er liked the look of the white fox very much. It was so nice to catch it. However, in terms of fate, she was fortunate enough to see the true appearance of the white fox.


    "Wait ¡­" Liu Shui took out some dried beef from his bosom. Eating had food, dry food, pastries, etc on him at all times.


    The white fox seemed to have caught a whiff of the beef jerky and slowly walked over from under the tree with a wary look on its face. Xi Jiu Er was a little excited. That white fox girl was cute, had a ball of white fur, and her little eyes were dark and full of spirit.


    Liu Shui stared fixedly at the white fox, and the white fox jumped into Xi Jiu Er''s embrace. The soft fur on the white fox gave Xi Jiu Er a feeling: Oh my god, there''s actually such soft and gentle fur in this world. No wonder so many people wanted the skin of the white fox!


    The white fox turned and looked at Xi Jiu Er, as if she was saying something, but it was a pity that Xi Jiu Er didn''t understand her and could only smile slightly. The white fox seemed to be on high alert. As long as it had a plan, it would flee. Therefore, Xi Jiu Er did not dare to cause too much trouble, and alarmed the little fellow.


    When Liu Shui saw this, his eyes became passionate. He shook the beef jerky in his hand and said softly, "Come, eat, eat.


    Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but laugh. The White Fox was shocked. Then, extended the beef over, causing the white fox to turn its head to look at him. Suddenly, without any warning, the white fox leaped and fled ¡­


    Liu Shui stuffed the beef jerky into his mouth and jumped off the horse to chase after the white fox. Thus, a man and a fox chased after Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er touched her chin. Why did it feel like the white fox was playing with Liu Shui?


    Was it her imagination? But it didn''t look like it either! But who knows? The white fox was a intelligent beast, so it probably wanted to tease Liu Shui when it saw how cute she was.


    One man, one fox, the two slowly disappeared into the distance. Xi Jiu Er rode her horse and followed behind them. After a while, there was no sign of him anywhere!


    "Puff ¨C" The originally quiet and obedient horse suddenly screamed in pain, and began to run aimlessly. Xi Jiu Er had asked Liu Shui to hand over some of his self-defense skills in his free time, of course it was only for defense purposes, but he did not learn much riding techniques.


    Xi Jiu Er reined in his horse, but the horse continued to run as if it was out of control. Xi Jiu Er jumped his horse too quickly, the surroundings were filled with trees and rocks, she was afraid that if she jumped, he would be struck dead by too many stones.


    The horse''s speed was extremely fast, causing Xi Jiu Er to feel dizzy. She had spent a lot of effort to make the horse calm down, but it obviously wasn''t possible! to be afraid of falling off the horse... The horse''s speed gradually slowed down, and Xi Jiu Er took advantage of the empty space to roll around. Finally, she hit a tree and stopped.


    The horse''s limbs were all twitching on the ground, and foam was continuously coming out of its mouth ¡­ Was he poisoned? Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips, took out a bottle of spring water from her pouch and gulped it down, in case she needed it.


    He had no idea where he was. There were trees everywhere, but nothing else. The sounds of a large group of people hunting came from an unknown direction. After calming himself down and recovering his energy and stamina, he slowly walked in the same direction.


    He walked and walked, but he did not know where he went. It was still a tree! When he was tired, he found a big rock to rest on and looked up at the sky. It was noon and the sun was bright. He hoped that Liu Shui would find out that he had disappeared early, so that he could be saved. Previously, she had heard people say that the Royal Hunt was very large. It was said that after the Young Master had split up with a large group of people, it took them a whole day of effort to find the person. When they found them, most of them had already been eaten by wild beasts!


    Xi Jiu Er hugged her arms, praying that she wouldn''t. If she ran into any kind of snakes or scorpions or ferocious beasts, a weak girl like her would only be killed and eaten.


    Little did they know that Xi Jiu Er''s every word and action had caught the eyes of the people, that he was one of Wang Bing Gui''s soldiers. He ordered Wang Bing Gui to wait for an opportunity to kill Xi Jiu Er in the hunting grounds! Xi Jiu Er''s horse was startled, and she pierced the venomous embroidery needle into the horse''s body. This venom can be used to control horses... Originally, she thought that Xi Jiu Er could die after falling from her horse, but unexpectedly, she was lucky enough to survive.


    He wanted to kill her when she was alone ¡­ However, this would definitely leave behind traces. The emperor has many capable people by his side. He must be able to find out something! After thinking for a long time, he still couldn''t think of a suitable way to murder Xi Jiu Er. Suddenly, he saw a black bear slowly walking over from behind Xi Jiu Er, a brilliant idea appearing in his mind.


    He took out a poisoned long needle and accurately inserted it into the black bear''s body. The black bear let out a painful roar. The man laughed, turned around and left.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat as she turned her head to see a black bear walking frantically towards her.


    "Your majesty, just now someone came to report that they saw the figure of a white fox." While the hunt was going on, a follower came over to report, causing a commotion. When Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge heard ''White Fox'', he was extremely excited. He had wished to hunt White Fox''s mother down when he was young, and now that he had passed away, he wished that he could fulfill the promise he made when he was young.


    With the white fox, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge led his guards and chased in the opposite direction. The officials immediately stopped them, "Your majesty, it''s too dangerous for you to go alone."


    "I have already brought my guards. There is no problem for me to protect myself. "If there''s more people, it will be big. If the white fox hears it and runs, it will be hard to catch it at that time." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge immediately rejected her offer and left with the guards.


    Who could do anything to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge? He could only order the imperial guards to keep close watch. If there was any movement, they would immediately send reinforcements. The leader of the imperial guards was a short man who looked like a woman, but he had real ability. Otherwise, why would he sit at the position of the commander of the imperial guards?


    When he heard that the situation was serious, his expression turned ugly. "If the emperor wants to do this, why didn''t you stop him?" Let the Emperor do as he pleases? "


    "General Shi, it''s not that we didn''t persuade him, but the key point is that Your Majesty has to listen to us. Since Your Majesty is the zodiac, we are subjects here." Some people began to complain, afraid that they would be in trouble if something really happened to them.


    "General Shi is so capable, why don''t you go and advise them!" This person''s tone was very aggressive. One look was enough to tell that the two of them were at fault.


    "Hmph, if I were to die again, I wouldn''t let the Emperor in." There are many fierce beasts in the hunting grounds. Even the Emperor''s body has not recovered from his previous discomfort. If there was even the slightest bit of injury, then who would be responsible for it? " Shi Chen Wen said with a darkened face.


    This caused public outrage, and was immediately condemned by everyone. "You make it sound light, but come at me!"


    "What does General Shi mean? "You kept saying that something had happened to the Emperor. Are you cursing him?"


    "This general has not." Shi Chen Wen said coldly: "This one is seeking truth from facts." With that, he turned around and left, too lazy to pay any more attention to these noisy people.

 C138

    Shi Chen Wen''s personality was straightforward and straightforward, thus he had made the right decision. Whether it was the officials or the dojo members, very few of them liked Shi Chen Wen''s personality. Sometimes, even Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge would not be able to accept his character. If it wasn''t for Shi Chen Wen''s outstanding ability, powerful martial arts, and many other achievements, having an unshakable position, who would be willing to bother with him?


    "The emperor is really too reckless." Shi Chen Wen stared at the forest in front of him with a darkened face, looked at the sky and instructed, "There are still four hours.


    "Yes." The Vice Commander''s expression wasn''t looking too good either. They just had to deal with the chore today. Every year on the hunting grounds, they would encounter some unexpected accidents, and every time they encountered something like this, they would be punished. This time, it''s the Emperor.


    The female staff members felt that they had nothing better to do, so they chatted in groups of three to five, either talked about clothes and accessories, or started playing cards! All the girls who had not left the pavilion wanted to marry him. Today, they were dressed beautifully, and even if the emperor didn''t like them, they would still catch one from so many officials, right? Even the married women would like to see the Prince Xian raise their eyes.


    "Eh? Lady Yun is also here ¡­ "


    "I heard that Lady Yun is pregnant and it''s actually real ¡­"


    "That''s right. I don''t know what side technique he used. I''ll go ask him when the time comes." If he said those words out loud, other people would definitely laugh at him. But who was Madame Zhao? No children in seven or eight years, running around for pregnancy. If not for the fact that her family was strong enough, she would have been abandoned a long time ago!


    The Madame that was closest to the Madame Zhao pulled her to a less populated place and whispered, "Do you still remember how Princess Laifu poisoned and murdered Princess Rongwang a while ago?"


    "Oh? "I remember!" It was only because Xi Jiu Er had become the last person in Princess Laifu that Madame Zhao found out about her. Initially, Xi Mansion suppressed the matter regarding the murder of Princess Rongwang. Later on, the Princess Rongwang even personally made her maidservants touch her lips to receive an apology from the palace.


    "I heard that Princess Rongwang got pregnant because of Princess Laifu. Rumor has it that Princess Laifu gave Princess Rongwang a stalk of the Poria cocos king, and that''s why Princess Rongwang got pregnant."


    Madame Zhao frowned. Even after eating it for so many years, it still did not have the slightest effect. The Princess Rongwang who had been infertile for many years was pregnant, and there was another Lady Yun who was pregnant as well ¡­ She wanted to find the Lady Yun to ask Yu Fang. However, this was the first time Lady Yun had shown up since the day the Lady Yun closed her door and did not receive any visitors.


    The Madame said in a low voice, "I heard that when you went to the Residence of Yun, I became pregnant ¡­"


    Madame Zhao was a little doubtful: "You mean that Princess Laifu has a side?" Princess Laifu was only a young girl, what could she possibly understand? Perhaps it was just a coincidence.


    Seeing the Madame Zhao''s expression, the Madame knew what was on her mind, and said softly: "This is not something to believe, since I have tried so many times, I do not care about it at all."


    Madame Zhao thought that was also the case, anyway, there was nothing to lose, maybe it was true? Madame Zhao looked at Lady Yun''s bulging stomach in envy, thinking to herself how great it would be if she was pregnant with a child. How happy she was.


    It was said that pregnant women would be very ugly, such as their skin would become bad, their body would become deformed, their temper would become very irritable, and so on. However, when one looked at Lady Yun carefully, he could see that his skin was even better than before. Her body didn''t seem to have any marks of being deformed. Other than a bulging abdomen, there were no signs of her body getting fat. Everyone was amazed.


    The young girls were all staring at the Prince Xian, while the married Madame were all staring at the Lady Yun, they really did not know how she took care of them. When he had time, he would ask about the experience in case he needed it.


    Prince Xian was still dressed in red, he fanned around in the crowd looking for Xi Jiu Er, and realised that without Xi Jiu Er, there was no way to tell where this damned girl had gone to hide.


    "mother, you should stay here for a while. I''ll go look for Jiu Er to play ¡­" It had been a long time since she last saw Jiu Er. During this time, Yun Qing Ran had been learning how to recuperate from the Lady Yun. During this period of time, Lady Yun told her a lot of things, indirectly telling her about her future, such as her husband. The future husband of the Yun Family cannot be a commoner, he must definitely accompany the Yun Family. Even if his status was a bit lower, it was still common. Having a lower status was not without benefits. At the very least, his parents wouldn''t be humiliated if they married into his family.


    Yun Qing Ran''s love for her was immediately killed, and the man she liked was hidden deep in her heart. She knew that her identity would lead her to a better life than others, and that she would also lose more freedom. Marriage ¡ª From ancient times, it was always the words of the perfect match, a matchmaker ordered by her parents.


    So ¡ª she accepted, she looked away. At the very least, her parents really doted on her, so she could choose her beloved husband as long as her identity wasn''t too low. She was very lucky.


    "Go." Lady Yun looked at the back of his daughter leaving and felt soft in her heart. Her child was a good child and was very obedient. Even at home, she had never let herself be wronged or humiliated. When people talked about Miss Yun in the outside world, they would at most talk about the naive and innocent nature of a young girl. She never did anything out of line... This child is very good.


    After a while, Yun Qing Ran came back with a pale face and said worriedly: "mother, I heard they said that Jiu Er went to the hunting grounds. It is said that there was a white fox, and she, she went in. "


    "What?" What, what should we do? " Lady Yun became anxious upon hearing it. She had treated Xi Jiu Er as her own daughter.


    Yun Qing Ran was also worried, but she did not want Lady Yun who was pregnant to worry: "mother, do not worry, Jiu Er''s great fortune is only in the Sky Realm! Furthermore, I heard that General Shi is leading troops this time around.


    "Hmm, Jiu Er will be fine." Lady Yun comforted herself and pulled his daughter over. "Don''t run anywhere, just sit here and wait for news." She was afraid that his daughter would rush in in in a hurry. What should she do?


    "Yes." My daughter is with mother. " Yun Qing Ran sat down and held Lady Yun''s hand, praying that Xi Jiu Er was safe and sound. Prince Xian''s face changed. Was this damned woman trying to take a life after entering the hunting grounds? Then she went to the stable, picked a good horse, and went in through the other entrance to the hunting grounds.


    He took out a green whistle from his bosom, and with a blow of Mu Qiu Shui''s whistle, a crisp and pleasant sound resounded through the deep forest. In a short while, a horse to the side ran over, on the horse carriage sat a young lady, Xi Jiu Er''s servant!


    Seeing Liu Shui running towards him, Mu Qiu Shui''s face darkened. What did this mean, was that Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui had already spread out. Liu Shui''s expression froze when he saw Mu Qiu Shui''s expression. He jumped down from his horse and ran to Mu Qiu Shui''s side and knelt down on one knee: "Master, it''s your fault, Princess ¡­ I don''t know where. "


    "Did you find it?" Mu Qiu Shui asked indifferently.


    "I found it ¡­" "No, I couldn''t find it!" Liu Shui said carefully. Right now, his face was no longer as silly and cute as it used to be. She looked cold, heartless, and unsmiling.


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head and asked: "Since you didn''t find it, then is that thing still there?"


    "Princess has a keen sense of smell. This subordinate does not dare to use it rashly. I''m afraid that the princess might be aware of some clues." Liu Shui lowered her head and said. Her heart was trembling too. If anything happened to Xi Jiu Er, even if she didn''t die, he would at least lose a layer of skin. She had experienced the Prince Xian''s methods before, but she didn''t see anything that could make you feel worse than death.


    "I got it, come look for it with me." Mu Qiu Shui said one word at a time: "If something happens to a person, you should know what you are going to face."


    "Yes." Liu Shui said in a low voice, and there was no fear in his voice.


    Xi Jiu Er sat on a big rock and rested as she tried to think of a way to let others know that she was here. Suddenly, a bone chilling roar came from behind him, deafening him. Xi Jiu Er was frightened, she turned her head and saw a black bear rushing towards her crazily, she was so scared that she almost woke up. Ye Zichen rolled far away on the spot and dodged the black bear. Black Bear howled loudly, causing Xi Jiu Er''s chest to shake. She thought to herself, if she didn''t get bitten to death by this thing, how much pain would it hurt?


    Roar ~ ~ Roar ~ ~ Roar ~ ~


    The black bear started to run towards Xi Jiu Er again. Boom! Xi Jiu Er took this opportunity to scram again. I scram! Unexpectedly, she took a step forward and grabbed her by the arm. With a ''kacha'' sound, only half of her skirt had been scratched.


    Xi Jiu Er was drenched in cold sweat. Was she thinking about running? It didn''t really matter much if she was injured. She could just go to the Spatial Springs and soak in it. If it was eaten, then there was no way to fix it.


    It had only been two trips, but Xi Jiu Er was already panting. Firstly, because she was afraid to make her body weak, and secondly, because of the horse''s bumpy movements, and now that she was fighting against a big bear ¡­


    "Help!" Xi Jiu Er shouted loudly, hoping that someone would hear her and help her. At that time, she would repay that person back.


    "Ahh ¡­." As Xi Jiu Er quickly dodged the big bear''s attack, she shouted loudly for help at the same time. And the bear seemed to be in a state of high spirits! Xi Jiu Er felt that if he and the big bear were to continue like this, they would definitely be eaten by this crazy big bear.


    He touched the tree! Oh, she could climb the tree! Xi Jiu Er took the opportunity to roll up his sleeves and start crawling out while the big bear was panting heavily. For the first time, he felt that there was nothing bad about being naughty in the past. At least in times of emergency she could climb trees!

 C139

    I crawl, I crawl! Xi Jiu Er also slipped, and when the big bear turned around, he was stunned for a moment: Eh, where is he? The big bear walked a circle around, but did not find any trace of Xi Jiu Er. It was angry, but she was relieved. At least she could breathe now, couldn''t she?


    Dingdang ¨C the hairpin on its head just happened to fall right under the big bear''s nose. The big bear was stunned for a moment, it was probably trying to figure out where this thing came from. When he raised his head, he was infuriated once again. Xi Jiu Er felt that he was dead for sure.


    "Hou, hou, hou, hou, hou, hou ~ ~"


    It was as if he was saying, Get down here! Xi Jiu Er hugged onto the big tree with all his might, the big bear was truly strong, it supported itself up and hugged onto the tree as it shook itself. The tree was shaking so hard that it made ''hua hua hua'' sounds. Xi Jiu Er''s body started to tremble and slide down the tree.


    Finally, with a thump, Xi Jiu Er rolled on the ground! Black Bear''s entire body ran over, Xi Jiu Er wailed in her heart, now she''s dead for sure! Xi Jiu Er, who was waiting for the death god to come, laid on the ground and thought about it a lot at this moment. First Lady, Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng... She didn''t want to die. She hadn''t tortured enough people!


    With her sharp ears, she suddenly heard the sound of dawn, as if something was stuck in her ear. The pain did not come as expected, but Xi Jiu Er opened his eyes and saw the black bear crying out while holding onto his bear''s paw, with an arrow sticking out of its palm. Xi Jiu Er didn''t understand what had happened and instinctively slipped away as he got up and ran, intending to find a tree and climb up while the black bear wasn''t paying attention. Its palm was injured. It wouldn''t shake the tree this time, would it?


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was crawling with excitement, she heard a helpless voice. "Jiu Er ¡­" The voice was very familiar, as if Xi Jiu Er had heard it somewhere before. Turning around ¡­ Shockingly, she saw a pitch black horse with a handsome man sitting on it. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge!


    "The Emperor ¡­ the Emperor?" Xi Jiu Er was startled, she carried the big tree and looked over. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed when he saw that: "What are you standing there for, hurry up and come down, we''re leaving."


    "Oh, good." Xi Jiu Er slipped down the tree. The three guards beside Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge aimed their arrows at the big bear, and the moment the big bear moved, they would shoot towards it. It was smeared with poison and intended to be killed in one shot. Xi Jiu Er slid down and ran towards Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge. The big bear roared and chased after Xi Jiu Er.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge shouted: "Release the arrows."


    The bodyguards released arrows in unison. The big bear''s speed was astonishing. It was unknown if it was because it was agitated or not, but it managed to dodge two arrows. Moreover, one of the arrows was aimed at its back. The giant bear gave a long howl as if it had gone mad, its aura awe-inspiring. The guards escorted their horses, and the horses fled in fright. When the big bear was fighting with the three guards, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge took the chance and pulled Xi Jiu Er up onto his horse, quickly galloping towards the direction that they came from.


    Xi Jiu Er tightly hugged Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s waist, and turned his head to look behind him and immediately shouted: "Oh no, it''s caught up." The corpses of the guards were scattered all over the place, it was a sight to behold.


    The black bear ran very fast. It was actually running at the same speed as the horse. Black Bear''s eyes were bloodshot and white foam was oozing out of his mouth. He looked like he had gone insane, making people shudder in fear.


    "Giddy up!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge whipped his horse with all his might and said indifferently: "Jiu Er, don''t worry, it will be fine."


    The closer they got to the crisis, the calmer and calmer they became. Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and said faintly, "Your majesty, you have to protect me when I leave this place."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was startled, then realized what Xi Jiu Er had said. He pretended to be angry and said: "You''re thinking of it, hmph, how do you expect us to punish you when we see it!"


    Xi Jiu Er felt that she had earned a lot. If something were to happen to him, the Emperor would be a scapegoat, and at that time he would be a sinner for all eternity. At that time, no one in Xi Family would be able to escape. At least he had taken his revenge ¡­ Thinking about it, Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed.


    "What are you laughing at?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked curiously.


    "I won''t tell you." pursed her lips into a smile in a place where she couldn''t see him, just like a little girl acting coquettishly.


    The mad bear had gone mad, and the horse was slowing down. The big bears behind him jumped up and grabbed the horses'' buttocks, which were whining. The two men on the horses were confused and disoriented.


    In front of them was a steep slope with no bottom to be seen. The horse just slipped and fell. The moment Xi Jiu Er fell, his consciousness returned to the dimensional realm ¡­ There was no way to know what happened in the outside world next.


    Qiu Qiu happily jumped over and affectionately called out Master, Master. Xi Jiu Er touched the sweat on her forehead that did not exist and forced out a smile, she dragged his long skirt to soak in it comfortably, and her spirit immediately returned. Then, she walked towards the place where a large amount of medicinal herbs were planted ¡­


    "Master, what are you doing?" Qiu Qiu asked curiously.


    "Qiu Qiu, I will find a suitable body for you so that you can go out and take a look at the outside world."


    "Really?" Qiu Qiu asked excitedly.


    "Yes, it won''t be long." Xi Jiu Er nodded with absolute certainty.


    When Xi Jiu Er woke up, his surroundings was pitch-black, and her entire body was shivering uncontrollably. Reaching out her hand, she scanned his surroundings. On the hard ground, there were stones of all sizes. For a moment, she didn''t know what had happened.


    Gradually getting used to the darkness, Xi Jiu Er looked at Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge who was lying beside him. Borrowing the moonlight, his face revealed pain, his handsome face was scratched quite a bit, it couldn''t be said that his face was disfigured, since half of his face was destroyed. and his rotation to another angle... She remembered that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge hugged him as he fell off the horse.


    A strange feeling rose in his heart. He couldn''t put his finger on it. In short, it was very strange. Logically speaking, she and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge shouldn''t have been involved in something like this, where they had sacrificed their lives to save each other. He is the zodiac ¡ª his life is more than a hundred times more precious than mine, what the hell is he thinking?


    "Your majesty?" Xi Jiu Er didn''t even respond to her scream a few times, as she took out a spring and moved Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s mouth away. But Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s mouth was tightly shut, and all of the water that he had poured in leaked out.


    "Your Majesty ¡­" Xi Jiu Er did not give up and screamed again, but there was still no reaction. She had to cross his lips to cross her heart. When his lips touched it, Xi Jiu Er realized that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s lips were surprisingly soft. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s eyelashes trembled slightly as she slowly inched forward, as if she had done something shameful.


    "Wu, where is this place ¡­ Jiu Er? " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge slowly opened his eyes and asked with indistinct breath.


    Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you''re awake? maidservant is fine, what do you think, Your Majesty? "Does it hurt? Your hand is already deformed, I don''t know what to do ¡­"


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge moved his hands, raised his head and looked at his dislocated left hand, with a kacha sound, he recovered and was still willing! Hearing that voice, Xi Jiu Er felt pain, but she saw that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face was expressionless and there was no pain, she could not help but look at her a few more times.


    "It seems like no one came to find us." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge felt that his body was not in so much pain. Borrowing the moonlight, he looked at the slope above him. Perhaps the people who came might have looked for them, but they might not have seen them.


    "What if we can''t find them?" Xi Jiu Er asked softly.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was relieved: "If it was anyone else, we would probably be worried about his ability to do things, but Shi Chen Wen believes in his ability. If you want to see someone alive, you have to see their corpse. Even if he had to dig into the ground, he has to find me.


    Shi Chen Wen? Xi Jiu Er had heard of his fame, she was a very capable soldier.


    A wolf howl came out, causing Xi Jiu Er to jump in fright. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge stood up and made a decision: "Let''s go quickly, the horse''s corpse should be right here, the wolf must have smelled the horse''s blood."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s words were reasonable. Xi Jiu Er supported Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge and the other two using the moonlight to help them move towards another direction carefully. Hearing Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge say that they needed to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, the night was extremely cold, and if they were slightly careless, they would get sick from the cold.


    Xi Jiu Er herself was fine, but she was worried about Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge. The two of them were lucky to have found a cave that could accommodate two people. The cave was very clean, covered with straw to sleep on. There was also a pot and a fire piston. The only thing missing was food.


    "Your Majesty, here, these are the only things on maidservant that can satisfy your hunger. Just take them." Xi Jiu Er took out a few apples and a man''s fist-sized peach. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was stunned, such a small purse could actually hold so many things. The apples and peaches were fresh, as if they had just been picked.


    Xi Jiu Er said as she gave Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge an explanation, "maidservant has a servant girl who likes to eat them, he never takes their meals with his mouth open. So maidservant also developed this kind of problem ¡­ "Haha ¡­"


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s stomach was already rumbling with hunger. When he started to chew the apple, he realized that it tasted really good. Xi Jiu Er was in a daze while chewing on the apple, and after thinking carefully about what had happened a few days ago, he felt that something was wrong. Why did his horse turn crazy just like that? As for the black bear, it seemed as if it had gone crazy. Although she didn''t know much about animals, she knew that animals were just like humans. They wouldn''t go crazy unless they were easily provoked.


    "What are you thinking?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked.


    Xi Jiu Er told Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge her thoughts, and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge raised his eyebrows: "You, a girl from the Miss, just who did you offend, to think that there''s someone trying to kill you."


    "Hehe, maidservant doesn''t know either. In fact, maidservant doesn''t easily offend people." Other than the few people in First Lady who wanted to kill him, there seemed to be no one else who wanted him to die. Could it be what the First Lady said? That would be too audacious. The Royal Family actually dared to hunt and kill him. If they could catch any traces of him ¡­ Transferring...


    Xi Jiu Er calculated in her heart, then asked, "Your Majesty, why did you bring a few guards and go alone? Where are the others?"


    "Humph, it is you, a Miss girl who ran into the forest alone because you are powerless. If not, do you want us to catch the white fox, and if we hear any movement, we can come over to take a look? Today will be the day you die."


    "Hehehe ¡­" maidservant thanks the Emperor for saving my life. " Xi Jiu Er laughed embarrassedly: "In fact, maidservant also came here because of the White Fox, and only wanted to witness the White Fox''s true appearance."

 C140

    Crack crack, Xi Jiu Er ate the peach. This peach tree was planted by Xi Jiu Er in her space. It tasted even sweeter than the Peaches of Immortality that she bought outside, had more water and was even more brittle. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge ate with relish, after eating so much, he wanted to eat meat. Seeing that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had finished eating the peach, she turned to her side and realised that there was nothing left at the place where she had placed the peach, and was immediately shocked.


    "What''s wrong?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge could not help but ask when he noticed her abnormality.


    "My ¡­ Your Majesty, the peach is gone ¡­"


    "The peach is gone?"


    "Yes, it was here just now. Why is it gone ¡­"


    "¡­"


    "Your majesty, do you think there might be a ghost?"


    "I am the incarnation of a True Dragon zodiac, how can demons and ghosts easily approach me?"


    "Your majesty, it doesn''t dare to approach you, but it dares to approach the maidservant ¡­"


    "..." Then are you afraid of ghosts? "


    "Is the emperor not afraid?"


    "Not afraid."


    Xi Jiu Er felt that it was strange, as she started to look around the cave, she realized that there was nothing here! No, she had to start a fire! The bonfire was ignited, and the cave entrance immediately lit up.


    "Ah - there''s a ghost!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge screamed out without any warning. Xi Jiu Er''s'' ah ''was startled, and only after hearing Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge let out a loud and hearty laugh, Xi Jiu Er realized that she had been tricked. She immediately said angrily: "You lied to me."


    "So what if I''m lying to you!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed.


    "Hmph." Of course she couldn''t do anything to you. Who are you, you are the zodiac, how can she dare to provoke you? Then, he took out another Immortality Peach and threw it to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge. However, the Immortality Peach disappeared in midair, just like that ¡­ Disappeared... At this moment, both of them were infuriated as they felt a strange sensation.


    "The Peach of Immortality is gone!" Xi Jiu Er smirked.


    "Right." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said.


    "There was a flash of white just now. Did the emperor see it?"


    "Yes."


    "Your majesty, what do you think it is?"


    "I guess that thing should be a white fox ¡­" thought for a while, then said, "Hunting the White Fox is one of my wishes. Just that lightning-fast speed alone was already beyond the reach of others. Wanting to hunt for the white fox was all due to luck.


    The white fox had already disappeared without a trace. Xi Jiu Er really wanted to see the white fox''s true appearance.


    It was already late in the night, so Xi Jiu Er decided to return to her room to sleep.


    "Your Majesty, maidservant is tired. maidservant has gone to sleep!" Xi Jiu Er called out to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, but was stopped by Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge!


    "No, you have to talk to me." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was unhappy: "It''s all because of you that we fell into such a predicament. You went to sleep in such a comfortable manner, you have truly let us down."


    Ahh, who is he, he''s from zodiac, if I provoke him, I won''t even be able to kill him. Xi Jiu Er sat upright, looking like she had been chatting all night: "Alright, what does the Emperor want to say?"


    "I don''t know, go ahead." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge realized that she did not have anything in common with Xi Jiu Er, so she decided to start a conversation with him. Who knew that in the next moment, he would regret it. "Your Majesty, how did the maidservant''s jade pendant end up in Your Majesty''s hands?" Look at how she''s still not out yet.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face darkened immediately, and she said lifelessly: "You didn''t know? You want to know? " Seeing him acting this way, Xi Jiu Er wanted to say ''I don''t want to know'', but her curiosity drove her to want to know. So he asked with a bashful expression, "maidservant wants to know."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not expect Xi Jiu Er to reply like this, and for a moment, he was a little embarrassed, not knowing how to start a conversation. Xi Jiu Er could not tell whether he was angry or sad. His face was creased into a frown, and it was unknown if it was anger or something.


    "Since you want to know, I will tell you. Ten years ago, I was mischievous and lost my way with a eunuch, and was kidnapped and sold to the countryside. At that time, you saved me and gave me the jade pendant." At that time, I did not know of your identity, and only after many years did I know that this was your mother''s jade pendant. " This jade pendant had saved his life, so it was especially important to him.


    He didn''t know who the little girl who saved his life was, but this jade pendant didn''t have too many clues. This jade pendant was sold all over the place, leaving him with no place to start. It was only until one day when Wei Guogong looked at his jade pendant for a while did he realize that his deceased daughter also had such a jade pendant.


    Although this jade pendant was bought by a lot of jade shops, it was still distinguishable. This jade pendant had a curved red line on it, it looked like a red rope. Wei Guogong was there when she bought the jade pendant. After that, she would take it out every day, and the Wei Guogong would remember it.


    "The little girl is mischievous. She''s even carved the word ''Xi'' on it." Speaking of his own daughter, Wei Guogong''s heart was filled with tears. When he arrived at a place where there was no one, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge looked carefully. If one did not pay close attention, one would not be able to see it.


    With this clue, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge managed to get ahold of Xi Jiu Er''s body. This was also a recent matter. If he had known this earlier, he would have definitely repay Xi Jiu Er well, with rewards in store for him. If he allowed her to enter the palace, she wouldn''t be at a disadvantage.


    "Ah - there''s such a thing?" Xi Jiu Er had completely forgotten, she never thought that she would actually do such an impressive thing, and save the current emperor.


    "Of course, there is also this ¡­ "You said before that I could use this jade pendant to marry you to me." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was lying and wanted to see what kind of expression he had on his face. If it was anyone else, they would probably be overjoyed. Unexpectedly, Xi Jiu Er tried his best to deny it.


    "Your majesty, you must have remembered wrongly. I was only three or four years old for more than ten years. I don''t know anything, how could a brat say something like that?" Xi Jiu Er denied with all her might.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face immediately fell. As a supreme man, his dignity had been humiliated. Didn''t Xi Jiu Er mean to say that she wasn''t going to marry him? What''s wrong with marrying me? It was the dream of many women to be above everyone else.


    "Do you think This Emperor is lying?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked with a darkened face.


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head fiercely, "That''s not the case, it''s just that maidservant thinks that Your Majesty still remembers the things that happened that long ago. The zodiac''s Fury had lost millions of lives, and she had to be careful.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face darkened after hearing the praises. "Then why did you forget?"


    Alas, he did not expect the Emperor to be a petty person today. Xi Jiu Er''s expression slightly darkened. "maidservant, maidservant''s head has been knocked over, so I have more or less forgotten about many things from the past."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s expression softened a little and asked again, "Do you still remember? "Tell me, with this jade pendant, you can marry me."


    This time, Xi Jiu Er was completely awake. She looked at Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge with his widened eyes in shock, causing Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge to be unable to resist thinking: So bright, transparent and shiny like jade.


    "Your Majesty, this is certain ¡­" You must have remembered it wrongly. At that time, how old was she? To be able to say such words, her tongue twisted in her throat. "Your majesty, this joke isn''t funny at all."


    "Are you kidding me? This is the Golden Mouth! " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was unhappy in his heart, why was this Xi Jiu Er different from the usual girls? If it was a normal Miss, he would probably start to sacrifice himself. When she heard that she could marry him, she would be overjoyed.


    Just look at his face, it looked like he had just eaten arsenic. It made him very upset.


    "No, no!" maidservant only felt that maidservant was very small at the time, and did not know what to say! " Xi Jiu Er laughed and immediately changed the topic. Talking to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was too tiring, could the emperor act like a scoundrel like that? How infuriating.


    "Your Majesty, I heard that Mubai is pregnant. Do you want Mubai to have a princess or a prince?" The moment Xi Jiu Er saw Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s expression, he knew how stupid his question was. He smiled awkwardly, "Your Majesty, maidservant is tired."


    "Hmph, don''t sleep." You make me mad, you want to sleep, no door.


    The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched. Fine, fine, if you don''t want to sleep, then so be it. Casually finding a stick to draw on the ground, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked: "How about we accept you as our concubine?"


    "As an imperial concubine?" Xi Jiu Er blinked her eyes. At that moment, she thought of a puppy.


    "Yeah, your status as an imperial concubine can''t be counted as, but if you force it, it''s definitely possible." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed: "How is it? As soon as I entered the palace, I immediately became a concubine.


    Happy your ass. Xi Jiu Er felt that the Emperor was worthy of being the Emperor. He would never listen to what he said from the start. Xi Jiu Er did not know whether Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was serious or not, but she knew about Jun Wu Ji''s words.


    "Your Majesty, this maidservant isn''t willing to enter the palace as an imperial concubine." Xi Jiu Er''s words were a blatant slap to the face, and also to the face of today''s zodiac. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge felt even more uncomfortable as he held his breath in his chest.


    "Your Majesty, maidservant already said that day in the royal study, that he would like a person to never part from it in this life. maidservant is serious. If maidservant likes the Emperor and sees that the Emperor has gone to another woman''s chamber, his heart will ache. He would think that the Emperor must have said the same sweet words to other women, made the same promises, and hugged the same place ¡­ When the maidservant is old and weak, the Emperor will think that the maidservant is ugly and lose his temper. Then, he will leave the maidservant and ignore the latter ¡­ And so, the maidservant fell out in the harem, gradually getting old ¡­ " Xi Jiu Er said in a low voice: "Many women are envious of the supreme glory, but this honor comes at the price of freedom. maidservant is unwilling."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s breath suddenly choked in his throat, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He only let out a cold snort, "Your thoughts are truly selfish. If we had this kind of heart, Xi Hong Sheng would be so happy that he would act like he was nothing but thinking of delivering you right now to us."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled coldly, "While the family''s benefits are important, the happiness of a daughter is the most important!" Moreover, whatever Xi Hong Sheng wanted to do, she could make it happen? In his dreams.

 C141

    "Happiness? Happiness in the face of benefits is a luxury. " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge scoffed.


    "Your Majesty, maidservant thinks that if Your Majesty''s birth mother is still alive, he would definitely hope that Your Majesty can marry the woman he likes and be together for the rest of his life." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Parents who sincerely love their children will think that their children''s happiness surpasses everything else. "Look, some daughters marry very low, and even though their lives are tough, the husband and wife are very happy together. Some daughters marry high, but they spend their days in tears. Life is very unhappy."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge calmed her voice and said coldly: "Poor couple, grieving over everything."


    The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched. She felt that no matter how much Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said it, it would be useless, so she said, "Wait until Your Majesty has someone he likes." I really hope that the woman you like can torture you to death, hmph!


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge curled his lips: "zodiac won''t easily move on feelings."


    Xi Jiu Er facepalmed, "Fate is destined. Even if the emperor is a zodiac, he wouldn''t be able to stop Yue Lao''s red line." Do you really think that you are the zodiac of the True Dragon? Xi Jiu Er''s body fell, as she weakly cried out. Talking to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was really tiring.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not speak, he only looked at the bonfire and thought back to the past. Her birth mother was such a beautiful and noble woman, yet in the end, she had washed her face with tears. When she died, she had two wishes, hoping that he would grow up happy and happy; hoping that he would find a woman who could be happy and treat him with sincerity, and that she wouldn''t fall in love with him just because he was the Emperor.


    Was he happy? Not happy! Every day was a huge pile of memorials, every day was a day when the women in the harem became jealous, and every day, it was the officials who tried to take advantage of them.


    Was he happy? I don''t know! The imperial concubine kept saying that he loved him and gave birth to his own child. He felt that the emotions in those eyes were fake, so much so that he didn''t even want to look at his anymore. Xi Jiu Er''s words made him feel that... No matter how she looked at it, Xi Jiu Er was pleasing to the eye. Xi Jiu Er would never fall in love with him just because she was the emperor!


    "Xi Jiu Er, come and love us." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge felt that if Xi Jiu Er loved him, it would be a very happy thing ¡­ At least, that''s what he thought. Even Xi Jiu Er could tell at a glance that he was not an honest person, nor was he a docile person, but the emotions in her eyes were real!


    Xi Jiu Er was about to fall asleep, but was blasted by Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s words to the point of dizziness turning around, causing him to wake up in an instant. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge actually asked others to love him? There''s nothing wrong with him, right? Why do I feel like he doesn''t follow common sense? But thinking about it, this person was the Emperor. According to common sense, wouldn''t everyone be able to peep at his holy will?


    "Your Majesty, love is not something that can be loved just because you say so. maidservant doesn''t feel anything for you." The only thing she felt was the feeling of escaping. It was said that her companion, Jun Ruo, was indeed a tiger. At this moment, she even had the thought of dying.


    "Don''t you love me? Why? Am I pretty enough? Not high enough? " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was not convinced, this was the first time he heard someone not loving him!


    "Your majesty, according to what you said, although the maidservant''s status is a little lower than his, he should be more than enough to enter the palace. As for her looks, the title of number one beauty is definitely worthy of that. Xi Jiu Er thought that this comparison was not bad, but in the end...


    "I''m from zodiac, they probably like me." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge answered confidently, and then said with a look of disdain: "What kind of analogy is this, can it be the same as what we are talking about?"


    "Damn!" The maidservant is like a torrential river that flows without end to the emperor''s talents. He''s willing to admit defeat, willing to admit defeat ¡­ " Xi Jiu Er swore that he would definitely not say another word to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge in the future, unless she thought that she had lived too long.


    "Haha ¡­" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed, which immediately gave Xi Jiu Er a creepy feeling. He couldn''t possibly think that he was actually praising, right? Xi Jiu Er could not help but say with a soft voice at the corner of his mouth, "Your Majesty, maidservant is tired."


    This voice was soft and carried a hint of spoiled behavior. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge didn''t know why, but his heart warmed up as he said, "Then go to sleep."


    Xi Jiu Er immediately turned her back on Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge and closed his eyes to enter the space. Inside the space, Xi Jiu Er was about to go crazy, "Oh my god, talking to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, I''m going crazy, I''m going crazy." This was the first time such a person could force Xi Jiu Er to go crazy. If the other party wasn''t the Emperor, Xi Jiu Er wouldn''t be this angry.


    Qiu Qiu came over and comforted her: "Master is not angry!"


    Qiu Qiu was taller and cuter than before. Xi Jiu Er scratched its head: "It''s fine, I''m not angry, I won''t be angry with him, I''m not that petty."


    Xi Jiu Er was playing with Qiu Qiu in the space for a while, while Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge who was outside squinted his eyes at the figure of Xi Jiu Er''s back. She did not like him, so how could he not notice it? He asked himself, why doesn''t Xi Jiu Er like me? There was also a faint sense of disgust!


    A strange feeling rose in Xuanyuan Po''s heart as he looked at the color of the sky. It was unlikely that the palace would be at peace this time! After the four hours that Shi Chen Wen had spoken of had passed, they realized that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was not around and immediately led their men to search!


    Eight groups of people set out from eight directions. About an hour later, the sound of firecrackers could be heard, and Shi Chen Wen immediately led the team over. On the other side, Mu Qiu Shui and Liu Shui also heard the sound of firecrackers!


    Shi Chen Wen immediately smelt a pungent smell of blood, and his heart jumped. Could it be that the emperor had met with an accident? When he walked in, he saw that the three bodyguards that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had brought along had already been torn into pieces by some ferocious beast.


    Shi Chen Wen was a man who walked out from the battlefield. When he saw that there was no trace of Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, he let out a breath of relief. His subordinates reported that these people were attacked by bears, and there were traces of a bear''s paw on the ground. Someone else came to report that a horse was headed southeast, presumably for the emperor''s horse.


    "Look ¡­" And women''s skirts! " Another person picked up a piece of a woman''s skirt from the ground. Although the skirt was stained on the ground, it could still be seen that it was new. The fragrance from it could still be seen.


    Shi Chen Wen was startled: Why is a woman''s skirt here?


    "General Shi, did you get anything?" A horse was galloping towards them. Behind it was a young girl dressed as a maid. Anxiety appeared on their faces.


    The people who came were Mu Qiu Shui and Liu Shui.


    Shi Chen Wen thought that Mu Qiu Shui was asking about Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, and replied, "The three guards the Emperor brought with him had already been torn apart by the bear. The Emperor did not know where they were. He thought Mu Qiu Shui was here to ask the Emperor.


    "Eh?" Mu Qiu Shui''s face sank even more. The Emperor and Xi Jiu Er were at a loss of what to do? Looking at the mess on the ground, one could imagine how angry and furious the bear had been. If the three guards were unable to resist, then the emperor ¡­ Mu Qiu Shui did not want to continue thinking about it.


    Liu Shui stared at the corpse on the ground expressionlessly, as if he was trying to find something. Suddenly, she screamed, "It''s the princess'' hairpin!" Immediately, he jumped off the horse and found a woman''s hairpin under a corpse.


    "This is the princess'' favorite hairpin ¡­" Liu Shui''s face paled a little. He frowned. So this woman was a princess? However, the princess had nothing to do with him at all. The only thing he needed to do was to find Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge and complete the mission. Woman ¡ª what a nuisance.


    Xi Jiu Er was killed? Mu Qiu Shui''s heart jumped and he instantly thought of something. "There''s no corpse here, so it''s likely that she wasn''t killed. She should be with the emperor, once we go to them."


    Then the search began. It wasn''t Shi Chen Wen''s first time doing such a thing, he was already very experienced, so he immediately assigned some people. Mu Qiu Shui and Liu Shui were in a group, causing Liu Shui to panic in his heart, but at the same time, he was also afraid. The master and servant had been together with her for a long time, and she had already treated Xi Jiu Er as her own kin. Xi Jiu Er had treated her extremely well, just like her own sister.


    The scenes from the past appeared in Liu Shui''s mind, blurring his line of sight! Liu Shui turned his head to look, "What are you crying for?"


    "Master... Your Highness, what do you think the princess has? It was all Servant''s fault. Servant was fond of playing so he shouldn''t have chased after the white fox ¡­ This way, the princess will be fine. It''s all Servant''s fault, all Servant''s fault ¡­ " The more Liu Shui thought about it, the more he blamed himself, and he was afraid that Xi Jiu Er might have met with some mishap, and that he wouldn''t be able to take the blame.


    Mu Qiu Shui said indifferently: "That woman is lucky. She has been in danger a few times in the hands of the Xi Mansion. If you want to punish yourself, wait until someone finds you. "


    "Yes, yes. Princess Ji has only the Celestial Phenomenon. With Buddha protecting her, nothing will happen." Liu Shui nodded, right? The mother and daughter of the First Lady continued to persecute her, putting her to death. They did not see anything wrong with her, and this time, they would definitely be able to turn the situation around.


    Time slowly passed. Shi Chen Wen''s face became darker and darker, his heart becoming more and more nervous. After searching for half a day, he only found the horse''s corpse. The horse had been bitten to the point that it only had bones, and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not have any money, it was as if he had disappeared from the world.


    There were two possibilities. Either the man had been eaten into the beast''s belly, or the body could not be found. Or they could hide, which was why they couldn''t find him. He hoped it was the latter, or he and his soldiers would become the sinner that was passed down throughout the ages.


    "Nope."


    "We don''t have any here either."


    "Not yet."


    "Not even a shadow was seen."


    Shi Chen Wen also did not receive Mu Qiu Shui''s message, and became distracted: "Continue searching!" Night fell and all of them started their search with torches. Shi Chen Wen called over another 100 people to search the place ¡­ The people outside the hunting grounds were all terrified. This matter was still hidden from the empress dowager.


    Little did you know that during the first round of searches, both Xi Jiu Er and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge were unconscious, and during the second round, the two of them didn''t hear anything from inside the cave.

 C142

    During the third round of the search, Mu Qiu Shui and Liu Shui found the person. Mu Qiu Shui shouted loudly, "Your majesty, Xi Jiu Er, where are you?"


    "Princess, Princess ¡ª ¡ª Princess ¡ª" Liu Shui shouted at the top of his lungs.


    Liu Shui suddenly froze as he held the torch in his hand, a very strange expression appearing on his face.


    "My prince, Servant ¡ª Servant thinks that the princess is nearby." Liu Shui suddenly said: "Your highness believes in the Servant, the feeling of the Servant is very strong, the princess must be nearby."


    He couldn''t really say why Liu Shui felt such a loss in feeling this way! Mu Qiu Shui felt the torch and looked around. Other than a steep slope, he did not see anything else. Not a single ghost was seen.


    Mu Qiu Shui told Liu Shui to use his internal energy to call for help. Liu Shui took a deep breath and shouted, "Princess ¡ª ¡ª Your Majesty ¡ª ¡ª Princess ¡ª ¡ª ¡ª" His voice reverberated for a few metres.


    "We''re here." The voices were so low that the two of them held their breath and listened. It was the Emperor''s voice. When he said ''we'', did that mean that Xi Jiu Er was with him as well?


    Xi Jiu Er felt that there was movement outside her space and immediately returned. She saw the figures of Mu Qiu Shui and Liu Shui and said in pleasant surprise: "Liu Shui, Liu Shui, I''m here."


    "Princess, Princess, this scared Servant to death ¡­" Liu Shui suddenly threw himself into Xi Jiu Er''s embrace and started to bawl like a wolf howling. Xi Jiu Er could not resist and said, "Don''t cry, if you continue to cry, I''ll summon you here."


    "Ugh ¡­" Princess, you ¡­ "You''re too bad ¡­" Liu Shui felt wronged. You said that you were afraid for a few hours, so crying a few times should be normal for you, but you actually dared to insult her like that. Liu Shui pursed his lips and bowed to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked Mu Qiu Shui: "Why did you come in?"


    Mu Qiu Shui said with mixed feelings, "I heard from General Shi that Your Majesty met with some mishap, so you came in." Then he took out the signal cannon from his pocket and the sky suddenly burst into bright fireworks.


    Shi Chen Wen moved, and let out a long sigh of relief.


    "You may leave." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently: "Princess Laifu is still a lady who has yet to exit the pavilion, it would be hard for people to not know what gossip they will have if they see us together."


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head: "Liu Shui, you stay here to protect the Emperor, I will bring my people and leave."


    "No, I want to go with Liu Shui." Xi Jiu Er shook her head in disagreement. It was a joke, since there were so many female disciples who came this time, if she went back with Prince Xian, who knew what kind of gossip she would spread.


    The damned woman had begun to contradict him again, and he had no way out of her. When would she be gentler to herself? Mu Qiu Shui''s heart was stifled and he felt uncomfortable. He pointed at a certain place and said, "Look at what this is ¡­ "Eh, a white fox?"


    Mu Qiu Shui had originally wanted to deceive Xi Jiu Er, but with a casual wave of his finger, he discovered that there was a white object in the darkness. Xi Jiu Er turned her head, half-believing and half-doubting. Puff! Something fell beside her feet and she realized it was a peach core.


    Xi Jiu Er''s vision turned black, and she lost her intuition. This darn Prince Xian actually knocked him out, too despicable. Mu Qiu Shui jumped onto the horse with Xi Jiu Er in his arms.


    The Prince Xian was actually a very hot-tempered person. Even though he liked to roam the flowers, he didn''t like people opposing him, especially women! He''s a very arrogant man... Xi Jiu Er didn''t like the Prince Xian, but the Prince Xian liked Xi Jiu Er. Back then Prince Xian said, for Xi Jiu Er, why not be a pair? He wanted to tell Xi Jiu Er that there were still people in the world who were like what you said.


    And that person was the Prince Xian! But he didn''t say anything. Why, he also wanted a woman who didn''t like him because of his identity, didn''t please him because he was the emperor, was afraid of him because he was angry, and was pleased to please him because he was pleased. In his harem women, he would never find them in their truest form.


    "Your Majesty ¡­" Liu Shui felt that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s gaze was weird, weird to the point that it made him uncomfortable.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently: "I will accept you into the palace, are you willing?"


    "Huh?" Liu Shui looked at Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge in a daze. Liu Shui scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty, Servant thinks that Servant''s looks are mediocre and his talents are mediocre ¡­ "I really don''t think it''s the type that the Emperor likes."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was wondering if he had lost all of his charm, or if the maids at Xi Jiu Er''s side were the same as her.


    Uh, I must have said something unpleasant to hear. Seeing that the emperor seemed to have eaten something disgusting, she obediently shut her mouth without saying a word. Not long after, Shi Chen Wen brought some people over. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was in a rather sorry state, and his face was extremely ugly!


    "This humble subject came late to save Your Majesty''s life. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Shi Chen Wen glanced at Liu Shui, who nodded slightly to indicate that Xi Jiu Er was safe.


    "What crime does General Shi have? "I still need to thank you properly. If it wasn''t for you, I wouldn''t even know where you would be staying now." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently.


    "Thank you, your majesty." Shi Chen Wen kept feeling that the Emperor''s tone was weird, and did not pursue the matter any further, so he pretended that he was not angry. He arranged for a guard to go and protect his safety, while he escorted Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge back to the camp.


    "Prince Xian ¡­"


    Who is she?


    "I heard it''s the Princess Laifu!"


    "Princess Laifu? Hmph, your luck is pretty good. You went to catch the white fox, but caught the Prince Xian instead. "


    "That''s right."


    A group of women were gathered together as they chattered, their mouths full of jealousy. Many people saw Prince Xian carrying Xi Jiu Er into the camp site. They all said that they were not close with each other and that it was very possible that the two of them were together.


    "That may not be so. Prince Xian likes to be merciful at every turn, if it was any other Miss, they would do the same."


    "Eh, that''s true, but it''s just that Princess Laifu''s luck is better."


    But then again, Prince Xian is not that young anymore ¡­ It was time to get married ¡­ I wonder which family is blessed. "


    With a change of topic, everyone''s mood changed and they began to mutter. When Shi Chen Wen returned with Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. The imperial physician had immediately gone to treat Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, and there were no major problems, just a few bruises on his body, and a few medicinal herbs being rubbed off would be alright.


    Xi Jiu Er woke up to find Yun Qing Ran right in front of him. With a smile on her face, she looked at her and said, "Great, you''re finally awake. You''ve been unconscious for two hours already, you really scared us to death."


    Liu Shui immediately came over to give Xi Jiu Er water to drink. After he gulped it down, Xi Jiu Er laughed: "This time, it''s also my fortune! Otherwise, I would have died in the hunting grounds. "


    "Didn''t you know that only three of the emperor''s men died? It was said that they were all killed by the giant bear. Their corpses were scattered all over the place, and they were very frightening." Yun Qing Ran''s small face paled.


    "Is that so? It''s horrible. " Xi Jiu Er continued.


    Yun Qing Ran then talked about the matter of Prince Xian carrying Xi Jiu Er back, and she said excitedly: "You didn''t know that Prince Xian was carrying you back, so many of the gold were talking about it!"


    "Stop, I don''t want to hear this nonsense." Xi Jiu Er immediately replied.


    Yun Qing Ran laughed awkwardly, the servants had already brought the food over, and Yun Qing Ran said: "Jiu Er, continue eating, I will not disturb you, I will come back when you are free."


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly.


    The food was very simple, Xi Jiu Er ate and ate until she put down her chopsticks, then said: "I keep having a feeling that this matter is not right."


    Liu Shui was startled: "What''s wrong?"


    "Why did my horse suddenly go mad? And that big bear, a beast is the same as a human, if you don''t provoke it, you definitely won''t take the initiative to attack. I think someone is framing me again... For a long time, I rarely attended banquets. Other than those that I couldn''t avoid, I evaded them all. The number of people I offended outside should be very few. Other than that First Lady mother and daughter who wanted me to, I can''t think of anyone else! " Xi Jiu Er''s smile was like frost, his words seemed light but his face was filled with killing intent.


    Liu Shui was quiet for a moment before replying, "I''m afraid so."


    "Let''s not talk anymore. Let''s eat." Xi Jiu Er picked up her chopsticks and bowl once again. But at this time, an unexpected person rushed in and worriedly asked: "Little sister Jiu Er, you''re awake?"


    The person who came was a well-dressed Xi Wan Rong, upon hearing that Xi Jiu Er was safe and sound, he felt hatred in his heart, and immediately thought of an idea, why didn''t she take the opportunity to follow him to the hunting grounds? There''s the Emperor, there''s also the Prince Xian ¡­ She could also test whether the medicine worked or not.


    "What are you doing here? Do you want to see me get killed by you?" Xi Jiu Er smirked as she stood up and walked over to Xi Wan Rong''s side. Xi Wan Rong did not think that her first sentence would be so straightforward. He was stunned and did not show any signs of responding, and only squeezed out a few words after a long while: "I don''t know what Little Sister Jiu Er is going to say."


    "Don''t know what I''m talking about?" Xi Jiu Er slapped him hard, causing him to feel dizzy and dizzy. "Now, do you remember?"


    Xi Wan Rong stared at Xi Jiu Er fiercely while covering her face. Xi Jiu Er laughed provocatively: "What? Resist? You can, you can yell out that I''ve hit you, or you can cry and tell the Emperor, the Prince Xian, and your father, who came with you. " Xi Hong Sheng was still angry, so he went to the hunting grounds without saying a word. He was afraid that the emperor would blame him if anything happened. So far, he hadn''t even taken a glance at it.


    "Xi Jiu Er, don''t be complacent." Xi Wan Rong said fiercely: "You''re lucky enough that you won''t die this time, there will be a day when you fall into my hands. We''ll see."


    "Just wait and see, do you think I would be afraid of you? What a joke! However, I must remind you of one thing. The killers you sent were as stupid as pigs and had left behind traces. You framed me? Don''t you know that the emperor was almost killed by that bear? Once we find out, Xi Wan Rong, you just wait to die. " Xi Jiu Er gloated. She was only faking it on Xi Wan Rong in the first place, she did not expect that it was really her doing.


    "You lied to me." Xi Wan Rong''s face paled as she screamed.


    "I''m lying to you, why should I lie to you? Do you think everyone around the emperor eats shit? Just by taking General Shi Shi Chen Wen for example, how could he even have such a capability? " Xi Jiu Er enunciated each word, "Xi Wan Rong, just wait for your head to be chopped off."


    "You, you ¡­" Xi Wan Rong panicked. He immediately turned and ran out, probably to look for Wang Bing Gui. Heh, he''s also scaring Wang Bing Gui. Helping isn''t so easy.

 C143

    "Uncle, is what Xi Jiu Er said true?" Xi Wan Rong''s face was filled with fear, thinking about what Xi Jiu Er had said, he was panicking more and more. Wang Bing Gui was also afraid, and this time, if it didn''t involve the emperor, then everything would be alright, but if it was related to the emperor, then it would be hard to escape. As he was frustrated in her heart, when she heard Xi Wan Rong spouting a bunch of nonsense, he said impatiently, "I naturally have a way to deal with this matter. All you need to do is not make a fuss about it and let outsiders know!"


    "Yes." Xi Wan Rong took a deep breath, and calmed himself down.


    "You should think of ways to get the emperor''s favor when you have the time. Climbing onto Prince Xian''s bed is the most important thing. If you miss this chance, the village won''t have this shop anymore, and it will become even more difficult in the future." Wang Bing Gui seized the opportunity to warn Xi Wan Rong, telling her to think more in this area.


    "Yes, uncle, I know." Xi Wan Rong smiled! Right now, Xi Jiu Er was the red man, the medicine box had to follow Xi Jiu Er whenever it saw him. stood outside the tent and hesitated. Xi Jiu Er''s previous slap was really ruthless, now that she was here at Princess Laifu, how could her identity be compared?


    But, in order to find a future for herself, she had actually ended up trying to please Xi Jiu Er. Thinking about it, she really couldn''t accept it! Just as she took a step forward, she heard Liu Shui''s voice from inside the tent. "Princess, this is a thousand year old ginseng, are you planning to give it to the empress dowager?"


    Xi Wan Rong who was outside of the door thumped his feet. A thousand years old ginseng? Her Majesty?


    "Lady Yun told me that the empress dowager would be here in two hours. When that happens, the empress dowager will definitely be very happy to give her thousand-year-old ginseng."


    "Hehe, when the time comes, the empress dowager will definitely like the princess very much. After that, she''ll have many treasures to bestow upon her."


    "You know baby."


    "Princess, you must hide this treasure well. There are so many people coming and going here, it would be bad if you steal it."


    "En, you''re right. Then I''ll put it in my box. When the time comes, I''ll forget to remind me."


    "Don''t worry, Princess. Even if you forgot, Servant won''t forget."


    "Let''s go. It''s rare for us to come here. Let''s go for a stroll." Xi Jiu Er said.


    The moment Xi Wan Rong heard it, he hid himself in a place where the two of them could not see him, only to see Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui laughing and chatting, and staring at Xi Jiu Er''s happy and contented smile, Xi Wan Rong realized that there was no difference between him and the clown.


    "Miss... Be careful of a trap. " Zhu Er whispered. Based on her understanding of Xi Jiu Er, she was afraid that this matter was a trap.


    Xi Wan Rong coldly snorted, "Let''s see if it''s a thousand year ginseng." What kind of ginseng was it that she didn''t know? He didn''t know how many ginseng he ate, but they were all ginseng that were close to a hundred years old.


    The person who came sneakily went into Xi Jiu Er''s tent, found the box and pulled it out. The box was extremely beautiful and luxurious, to the point that Xi Wan Rong couldn''t let go of it no matter how he looked at it. When he opened it to take a look, he saw a human-shaped ginseng lying inside, and his facial features could be vaguely seen ¡­ Xi Wan Rong took a whiff and licked his lips, it was really ginseng. It was her first time seeing such a huge ginseng ¡­ He was overjoyed, carefully put it into his bosom, and quietly slipped away with Zhu Er.


    When they left, Xi Jiu Er walked out from behind the tree. Xi Wan Rong, I originally wanted to keep you here for a while longer, but it''s a pity that you didn''t care about your life and came to provoke me.


    The empress dowager had come two hours earlier than expected. How could Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s injury be hidden from her? How could he keep it a secret? The empress dowager was dressed in the attire of a normal woman. Even so, her body was noble and elegant, and her noble air was oppressive. It was difficult for people to get close to her.


    "Thousand years, thousand years, thousand years, the empress dowager." The group kneeled down and kowtowed.


    "Get up." Her Majesty did not have much of an expression on her face, and there was no sign of joy. When they came out of Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s room, their faces were covered with a layer of white frost. When they sat on the high seats and asked about the hunt, some of them did not dare be negligent, and chose to reveal everything they knew.


    The empress dowager made a sound of acknowledgement, then gave a faint smile. "It''s been so many years since Wailing Home has hunted. Today, I''ll come with you to join in on the fun."


    After that came flattery, and suddenly a young girl''s voice rang out. "I heard that the empress dowager was not feeling well a while ago, and maidservant specially sent a thousand years old ginseng to pay respects to you."


    The one who spoke was none other than Xi Wan Rong. Everyone looked over, only to realize that it was Xi Wan Rong, who had a smile on his face that was difficult to notice. Why did his daughter suddenly run out here? He was so scared that his face immediately turned pale. He was truly a troublemaker.


    "Nonsense." Xi Hong Sheng shouted.


    Xi Wan Rong acted as if he did not hear the warning, and knelt down gracefully on the ground, neither servile nor overbearing. The empress dowager''s eyes narrowed. Her nephew''s evaluation of this girl was not so good, so her impression of Xi Wan Rong was also not too good.


    "Oh? A thousand years old ginseng? " The empress dowager raised an eyebrow.


    "Yes." With that, Xi Wan Rong handed over the box he obtained from Xi Jiu Er. The old palace maid by the empress dowager''s side opened it to take a look, and her expression became more and more strange. When he saw Xi Wan Rong muttering some words in front of the empress dowager, the empress dowager''s expression changed greatly, and he immediately shouted, "How dare you!


    Xi Wan Rong was stunned, what, what was going on? Xi Wan Rong did not know what to do, and heard the old man beside the empress dowager say, "These thousand years, the ginseng was fake."


    The scene became lively.


    "What, it''s actually fake? That''s too much, daring to lie to the empress dowager."


    "To use fake thousand-year-old ginseng to fool the empress dowager, he really ate the guts of a leopard."


    "It is indeed as the rumors say ¡­"


    The crowd broke out into a flurry of discussion. The color of blood on Xi Wan Rong''s face faded as he shook his head repeatedly in disbelief, "This ¡­ This is impossible... "This is a thousand year ginseng."


    Xi Hong Sheng''s entire face paled as well as he began to panic. He secretly hated that this bitch, Xi Wan Rong, was really asking for trouble. She was the bane of Xi Mansion.


    "This might look like a thousand-year-old ginseng, but it''s actually man-made ¡­" It''s full of wood. " The old mother by the empress dowager''s side did not smile, and no one dared to question her words.


    Xi Wan Rong collapsed to the ground. How could this be? How could this be? She shook her head. "Empress Dowager ¡­" maidservant... maidservant did not know ¡­ " She had obviously gotten it from Xi Jiu Er, which meant that Xi Jiu Er had bought it for her? Then why didn''t she put the blame on Xi Jiu Er? The one to be punished like this was Xi Jiu Er! As she thought of this, his eyes reddened and she started to sob uncontrollablyhis Wan Rong collapsed to the ground. How could this be? How could this be? She shook her head. "Empress Dowager ¡­" maidservant... maidservant did not know ¡­ " She had obviously gotten it from Xi Jiu Er, which meant that Xi Jiu Er had bought it for her? Then why didn''t she put the blame on Xi Jiu Er? The one to be punished like this was Xi Jiu Er! As he thought of this, his eyes reddened and he started to sob uncontrollably.


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager, maidservant is guilty, but all of this was not done by maidservant, it was done by maidservant''s sister, Xi Jiu Er! What the maidservant Ginseng bought back in these thousand years was real, and many people said that it was real. However, the maidservant was given to Little Sister Jiu Er for safekeeping temporarily. Somehow, it became a fake ¡­ I beg Esteemed Empress Dowager to forgive me. " Xi Wan Rong immediately cried out, giving the empress dowager an unendurable view of his tear-stained face. She turned her head towards Xi Jiu Er with grief: "Little Sister Jiu Er, why did you do this? I don''t normally treat you badly, why did you set me up? "


    Xi Jiu Er immediately became the focus of attention. She had thought that she would panic and be scared, but she only smiled faintly, seemingly ridiculing him. Xi Wan Rong, if you admit that you were stupid enough to buy the wrong one, it would still be understandable.


    The empress dowager looked at Xi Jiu Er. Not bad, not bad, she thought. Then he asked: "Xi Jiu Er, what do you think?"


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "When returning to the Esteemed Empress Dowager, this maidservant has never done such a thing. This maidservant simply doesn''t know what the Elder Sister Rong is talking about. I think this matter is something that the Elder Sister Rong is most aware of.


    The empress dowager looked at Xi Wan Rong again, causing Xi Wan Rong to cry even more sorrowfully. "Little Sister Jiu Er, I''ve already said that both prosperity and destruction will come once and for all. What are you trying to do to me by harming me like this?"


    "Enough!" The empress dowager shouted, "This Wailing Home has no patience to listen to you two shirk your responsibilities here. This Wailing Home wants to know who gave this fake ginseng to this Wailing Home."


    The two Xi Family s came to the empress dowager''s place while pinching each other. It was really lively watching this scene. Yun Qing Ran was extremely nervous as she looked at Xi Jiu Er with worry. Lady Yun said softly: "You can rest assured, looking at Jiu Er''s expression, I''m afraid that she already has a plan and a way to escape."


    "I hope so." Yun Qing Ran looked at Xi Wan Rong in disgust. This woman was so disgusting, she looked like she wanted to vomit.


    Xi Wan Rong insisted that Xi Jiu Er was the one who did it, but Xi Jiu Er remained composed and continued: "Esteemed Empress Dowager, maidservant coincidentally has a thousand year old ginseng in his possession as a gift for Esteemed Empress Dowager to recuperate his body, and a thousand year old Lingzhi."


    "You, you stole my ginseng?" Xi Wan Rong immediately blurted out.


    Xi Jiu Er completely ignored her, and merely told Liu Shui to bring over a tall box and submit it. The old mother next to the empress dowager opened it and a look of shock flashed across her eyes. She then looked at Xi Jiu Er who had given the item to the empress dowager. Even the empress dowager, who''d seen many rare treasures, was greatly shocked. When the big fellow saw her like this, he couldn''t help but feel curious.


    Xi Jiu Er had only delivered 1000 years old Ginseng and Lingzhi, what was there to be surprised about? Although these two things were hard to find, to someone who had seen many treasures before the empress dowager, what kind of things had she not seen before?


    The empress dowager''s face broke into a smile. "It''s rare for you to have this kind of heart."


    "Being able to serve the Esteemed Empress Dowager is the fortune of the maidservant." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, neither servile nor overbearing, and her expression was indifferent without any kind of surprise.


    "The empress dowager ¨C she stole the thousand year ginseng from the maidservant to slander him. The empress dowager will uphold justice for the maidservant." When Xi Wan Rong heard that the situation was not developing in his mind, he immediately poured his dirty water on Xi Jiu Er.

 C144

    A flash of disgust passed through the empress dowager''s eyes. "Since you said that she had stolen your thousand year ginseng, then tell Wailing Home, what do you think your thousand year ginseng looks like?"


    Xi Wan Rong was startled, what did the thousand year ginseng look like? Wasn''t it like that? Could it be that a flower could grow? He thought for a moment and said, "It''s the same as the 1000-years-old ginseng. There''s no difference."


    "Really?" Her Majesty said lightly.


    Xi Wan Rong nodded: "I do." Sometimes, the more difficult it was, the more difficult it was to confuse others. Isn''t a thousand years old ginseng like that?


    "A Qing, let her see!" Her Majesty said lightly.


    Everyone became curious, extending their necks to see what exactly Xi Jiu Er was giving them! The old palace maid called A Qing saw that Xi Jiu Er had opened the box, inside were fresh ginseng that looked like it came out of the oven, and without even going out to dry, a faint smell of ginseng assaulted her. It was so shocking that they couldn''t help but suck in a few more breaths.


    The Ganoderma that was placed below was the same as the one that had just been picked. This took a lot of thought. Everyone looked at Xi Jiu Er whose face had changed. When they looked at Xi Wan Rong, she said that her ginseng was no different from other ginseng. Even the foolish ones could tell that Xi Wan Rong was lying. Maybe she went to steal Xi Jiu Er''s things, or bought a fake ginseng. But in the end, he had actually framed someone else ¡­ Deceiving Her Majesty!


    Wang Bing Gui''s face turned pale, this niece of her was truly a scum. With his sister''s intelligence, how could she have given birth to such a foolish daughter? Perhaps it was due to his usual pampering.


    Now that he had offended the empress dowager, he originally wanted to plead for leniency, but gave up after thinking it over. The empress dowager was already in a bad mood today. If she angered the empress dowager again, even she herself would suffer.


    "Xi Wan Rong, you actually dare to tease Wailing Home. Men, pull Xi Wan Rong down and slap him on the face for fifty times. If you don''t learn well at such a young age, you just have to learn from others and lie. " The empress dowager''s face sank. She was already so old, but she was still deceived by the maid. If she didn''t punish her properly today ¡­ I''m so sorry.


    Xi Wan Rong was like a bolt of lightning, slapping his lips 50 times? Not only did she lose so many people, but the empress dowager''s evaluation would make it impossible for her to make a comeback for the rest of her life. Don''t... Don''t... She didn''t want that. She bit her lips and cried, "Empress Dowager, please judge clearly, it was Xi Jiu Er who stole maidservant''s ginseng. maidservant was wrongly accused, even if maidservant had the guts, he wouldn''t dare deceive the empress dowager."


    What is the Empress Dowager? He was someone who was below ten thousand, yet he was still questioned after he spoke? Everyone looked at Xi Wan Rong with gazes filled with schadenfreude. Wang Bing Gui thought to herself that it was fortunate that she did not plead, since even a pig''s brain would not be able to plead for him. Xi Hong Sheng almost fainted. This time, Xi Family''s reputation had been ruined by her.


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager, this must be the doing of Xi Jiu Er framing maidservant. Normally, she doesn''t like maidservant and likes to go against him, so she wants to make her reputation bad ¡­ Esteemed Empress Dowager, you have to seek justice for maidservant. " Xi Wan Rong cried.


    If the empress dowager was duped by Xi Wan Rong again, then her act as the empress dowager would have been in vain. Immediately shouted: "Insolent Xi Wan Rong, you dare to disobey Wailing Home''s imperial decree. Men, drag him out and slap him a hundred times!"


    Xi Hong Sheng didn''t even have the guts to go up against the empress dowager. He didn''t like his daughter from the start, so there was no need for him to plead for her. Xi Wan Rong was pulled down as he wailed, "Empress Dowager, the maidservant was wrongly accused, wrongly accused ¡­ Father, save me ¡­ "Uncle ¡­"


    After Xi Wan Rong was brought down from the stage, the scene became quiet for a moment. or the Lady Yun asked, "Miss Jiu Er, where did you find such a fresh lingzhi root and ginseng?"


    "Hur hur, I got it." Xi Jiu Er said respectfully.


    Lady Yun asked these words with the intention of attracting everyone''s attention. As expected, the empress dowager looked at them and said happily, "It looks like this month is about to be born."


    "Reporting to the empress dowager, it''s precisely ¡­" Lady Yun caressed his lower abdomen and said happily.


    Thus, the two of them continued talking for a while longer before the empress dowager spoke out, "Xi Jiu Er has worked hard, this Wailing Home will write a down for you. When you return to the palace, I will reward you well once more."


    "The maidservant doesn''t dare to seek rewards. This is the duty of the maidservant, I only hope that the empress dowager can live for a thousand years or even thousands of years." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Good boy." The empress dowager''s smile grew more amiable.


    On the other side, Xi Hong Sheng received gazes filled with mockery from all around, causing him to be unable to keep his old face in check, and become as red as a pig''s liver. She scolded Xi Wan Rong badly in her heart. When he returned to the residence, he would chase Xi Wan Rong out. She would no longer be his daughter.


    The empress dowager sat for a while before going back to rest. Shi Chen Wen was also called over, so everyone dispersed. Xi Hong Sheng did not want to stay in this shameful place. He had originally wanted to take Xi Jiu Er to ask him about the situation and whether what she said was true or not. She thought that must have set her up, so in the future, the prosperity of the Xi Mansion would definitely depend on this girl. And so, he left in a hurry to meet Xi Wan Rong!


    Xi Wan Rong slapped his face a hundred times and was in extreme pain. Seeing Xi Hong Sheng angry at him, he retreated in fright, wanting to call out to her, but he realised that his cheeks were in pain and he couldn''t even open his mouth.


    Xi Hong Sheng ruthlessly slapped her across the face. Xi Wan Rong felt that her ears were buzzing with pain even more now. She looked at Xi Hong Sheng in despair as she covered her face.


    Madame Zhao was initially a little skeptical about the Poria cocos king, but now she completely believed it. When Xi Jiu Er returned to the tent, she also followed along. Yun Qing Ran was a little surprised, but said: "Jiu Er, I''ll be leaving first. I''ll come find you when I have time. "


    "Mm. Go." Xi Jiu Er didn''t know who the Madame in front of him was, and felt that she looked a little familiar. When they left, the Madame Zhao came over smiling: "Princess Laifu, my husband''s surname is Zhao ¡­"


    "Madame Zhao." Xi Jiu Er said politely.


    Madame Zhao impatiently sat down and coughed a few times. Xi Jiu Er waved for Liu Shui to leave. When there were only two people left, the Madame Zhao could no longer hold on, and pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand: "Princess Laifu, you have good returns, please help me."


    "Madame Zhao, I don''t even know what you want me to do. How can I help you?" Xi Jiu Er did not understand.


    Madame Zhao was stunned, then laughed: "Look at me, I was so anxious that I forgot everything. "It''s like this. As for me, I''ve been married to my husband for six or seven years and haven''t had any children. If it wasn''t for my family helping me with this, I''m afraid I would have already been abandoned because of being childless."


    Xi Jiu Er listened quietly and understood why the Madame Zhao had come over.


    The Madame Zhao looked lonely as she said, "I was just thinking about children. Seeing how old they are at my age makes me envious, so I tried my best to find a way to take medicine. Whether it was prescriptions or doctors, I saw them all ¡­" Pausing for a moment, she saw that Xi Jiu Er''s expression was no different, and said: "I hope Princess Laifu can help me think of a way, and also allow me to become pregnant with a child."


    "Madame Zhao, I''m not sending off the Empress." Xi Jiu Er sighed.


    "Princess Laifu, I know you have a way. Princess Rongwang''s many years of infertility were due to you getting pregnant, and this is also true for Lady Yun! Princess Laifu, please understand this desire of mine to become a mother. Help me, help me, I, I''m going to kneel down and beg you. "


    Madame Zhao pulled down her pride and kowtowed to Xi Jiu Er. Knock knock knock ¡ª ¡ª In this world, the thing that Xi Jiu Er could not endure the most was her family. Take the First Lady for example, even though it was a heinous crime, it was extremely good for one''s own children. Xi Jiu Er stood up and supported Xi Jiu Er up: "Madame Zhao, quickly get up. I''ll think of a way."


    Madame Zhao broke out laughing: "Thank you, Princess Laifu. Thank you very much, I will definitely repay you for your great kindness in the future."


    "Hehe, it''s not that serious." Xi Jiu Er had cut open the blood vein of the Madame Zhao and her expression was indifferent as if she was looking down on nothing. She simply instructed the Madame Zhao: "Madame Zhao, when we return, you will find me in the heart-nourishing hall. I''ll make you some medicine when the time comes. "


    "Okay, okay." Madame Zhao bowed and left.


    Liu Shui opened the curtain and laughed: "Princess, aren''t you going to become the empress dowager soon?"


    "Nonsense." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "You''re the most."


    "What Servant said is absolutely true." Liu Shui laughed. At night, when everyone was talking about the animals they had hunted starting to roast, the empress dowager was in a good mood. She made Xi Jiu Er sit down next to her and chat with her. Seeing the girls being so jealous, Xi Hong Sheng lost face at Xi Wan Rong''s place, and also lost face at Xi Jiu Er''s place. He was extremely happy, and he began to feel extremely proud of himself.


    They said that the Emperor''s mental state was not bad and was currently discussing matters with Prince Xian and the others. Xi Jiu Er guessed that they were probably in the upper half of the couplet, or something big.


    Her Majesty told everyone not to stand on ceremony, relax, and play around. Even though those words were said, everyone still sat obediently and spoke fawning words. The empress dowager felt that Xi Jiu Er was more and more pleasing to others, or at least reading her own appetite. Unlike how others only talked about appearances, the empress dowager began to talk about how the Mubai was pregnant and how this sealed baby was very unstable, sometimes there was even a hint of red! The Emperor''s heir was very thin, the Heavenly Queen was worried sick for the sake of the child in the Mubai''s womb.


    Mubai and Xi Hong Sheng were actually relatives. Because of Mubai''s selfishness, he did not allow Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong to enter the palace, so it was likely that she would find someone to help him after he became pregnant.


    However, who would have thought that one or two of them would be in trouble? It was impossible to get them into the palace. So much so that the Mubai began to form alliances for the sake of his own position. For example, her sister ¡­ He was dressed in the most beautiful attire, and one could tell that he had spent quite a bit of effort to dress him up. Unfortunately ¡ª Not to mention that she was not close to the emperor, even the empress dowager was not close to him. Look, what''s there to be anxious about?


    Xi Jiu Er was carefully listening to what the empress dowager had to say, and her eyes inadvertently caught sight of a girl dressed in palace maid attire who was especially tall. His body was larger than most girls, and a little thicker. Suddenly, something flashed through her sleeve. It seemed to be a knife?

 C145

    "Jiu Er?" Her Majesty was unhappy to find that she was absent-minded.


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager, look at that palace maid ¡­" Xi Jiu Er pointed to the palace maid, which the empress dowager turned to look at with a frown. Suddenly, the palace maid leapt up and charged towards the empress dowager with nimble movements. The dazzling white object in his hand was truly terrifying.


    "Give me your life ¡­" He shouted loudly. How was this a palace maid? This was simply a man''s voice!


    Xi Jiu Er was the closest to the empress dowager, and then was the old palace maid called A Qing. Seeing that assassin''s dagger was approaching them, everything happened too quickly.


    Xi Jiu Er calmly analyzed the situation. With the spring water in her hand, she was not afraid of death, as long as it did not harm her vital points, she was fine. If he saved the empress dowager, then she would be the one to contribute the most ¡­ Her Majesty will remember her own goodness. Just at that moment, when the dagger was about to stab into the empress dowager''s chest, everyone''s hearts leapt out of their throats. It was over, it was all over ¡­ If anything happens to the Empress Dowager this time, none of them will be able to escape.


    "Empress Dowager!" Xi Jiu Er screamed and pushed the empress dowager aside. With a pfft sound, the dagger stabbed into her flesh, causing her to inhale deeply in pain. It was a very cold feeling! The moment the dagger pierced his body, it was extremely cold, so cold that Xi Jiu Er shivered.


    Puff, the blade was pulled out, and a gush of blood gushed out! The Assassin did not expect Xi Jiu Er to sacrifice himself to save him, and was immediately startled, in that split second, a figure flashed out from the inside, and immediately slashed towards the Assassin, who regained his senses and immediately pulled at the person beside him and shouted: "Stop, otherwise I will kill her."


    "Qing Ran..."


    "Miss ¡­"


    It turned out that the assassin was not holding onto Yun Qing Ran! Yun Qing Ran calmly shook her head at Lady Yun. Shi Chen Wen said word by word with a darkened face, "Let her go."


    "Not letting go." The assassin said, "Do you think I''m stupid? If you let go of her, I''ll be fine."


    Shi Chen Wen''s eyes turned as he said, "Miss Yun, I like you."


    Everyone was stunned, Yun Qing Ran was stunned, then flew into a rage: "You stinking dwarf, what are you saying!"


    Shi Chen Wen pouted: "I still want to marry you."


    "What?" Who wants you to marry me, you love the toad, and yet you want to eat swan meat? Yun Qing Ran scolded, her face completely red, it was unknown whether she was angry or embarrassed. When the assassin behind her saw that she was getting more and more agitated, he shouted in anger, "Be quiet!"


    "Quiet my ass, didn''t you hear that this stinking dwarf was going to marry me? I won''t marry him, he, this toad, still wants to eat this swan meat of his, so go ahead and dream about it. " Yun Qing Ran shouted in anger.


    "¡­" The assassin was speechless.


    "Look at where he''s good-looking. He''s short, looks like a woman, and has a bad temper. Tell me, do you think there''s any woman who marries him? "He''s simply blind." Yun Qing Ran began to forget everything that had happened with Shi Chen Wen.


    Shi Chen Wen remained expressionless, as if he did not care. Those who knew him were very surprised. They knew that the person General Shi hated the most was being called short and looked like a woman. Otherwise, he would be furious. However, it was fine for Yun Qing Ran to scold him like that ¡­ Did he really like Yun Qing Ran? If it was based on appearance, Shi Chen Wen was very ugly, and nothing caught his eyes, but in terms of ability, there were very few people like him. According to his status, Shi Chen Wen was born into a humble family, and was not compatible with Yun Qing Ran ¡­


    People began to wonder whether the marriage would be successful or not.


    When the assassin became impatient, Shi Chen Wen immediately jumped up and attacked his weak point at the right side of his waist with lightning speed. Before the assassin could retaliate, he was caught by Shi Chen Wen ¡­ Yun Qing Ran looked at Shi Chen Wen in a daze.


    "Don''t mind me. I was just saying that to distract the assassin." Shi Chen Wen said indifferently, his eyes clearly saying, "Don''t be emotional about it". Yun Qing Ran was so angry that her teeth started to itch. Remember this, if I don''t report you, you''re just trying to become a great man. See how I''ll deal with you in the future.


    Xi Jiu Er watched the two bickering between Shi Chen Wen and Yun Qing Ran with his hands covering his chest. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed to be a quarrel between the two of them. Liu Shui pressed down on her chest and said: "Princess, hold on a little longer, the doctor is about to arrive."


    "Good child, you have to bear with it!" The empress dowager was moved. At that moment, this child had risked his life to save her. This wasn''t something an ordinary person could do.


    "Child ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng would obviously perform as his father at this time.


    "Jiu Er!" Yun Qing Ran ran over and asked worriedly, but when she saw that the long skirt was stained with fresh blood, her face started to turn pale white.


    "I''m fine!" Xi Jiu Er laughed weakly, she only felt that her body was extremely cold! Her vision turned dark and she fainted. In the instant she fainted, she entered space! Qiu Qiu skipped over, and acted coquettishly. The more it acted this way, the more guilty Xi Jiu Er felt.


    "Qiu Qiu, wait for me ¡­ I will immediately find a body for you when I return. " Xi Jiu Er felt extremely guilty.


    "Yes, yes." Qiu Qiu said happily.


    It had already been six hours since Xi Jiu Er woke up, and her eyes were actually opened in the Imperial Palace. A pretty palace maid dressed in palace maid attire said: "The princess has woken up. Servant will go report to Mother Qing right away."


    "Water." Xi Jiu Er said hoarsely. She felt that her throat was extremely dry, and every time she moved her body, she would feel an excruciating pain. The palace maid supported her as she drank some water. After a while, Liu Shui came over: "Princess."


    "Liu Shui." Xi Jiu Er shouted indifferently.


    "This is the empress dowager''s chamber." Liu Shui laughed, "The imperial physician said the princess is fine. Fortunately, the wound wasn''t deep enough to injure her internal organs, otherwise, it would have been very troublesome. All we need to do now is to rest and recuperate. "


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er was not in a good mood.


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager ¡ª ¡ª" The court lady''s greeting sounded from outside the door, and immediately afterwards, she saw the empress dowager and her mother enter. The empress dowager said happily, "Good child of Wailing Home, you''ve awoken."


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er made a gesture to salute.


    "Hurry up and lie down. You''re not fully recovered yet, so you don''t need all these useless things." Her Majesty smiled. The palace maid brought fresh porridge and side dishes that Liu Shui was feeding to him. Xi Jiu Er ate very well! Not long later, the Mubai arrived!


    "Lucky Young Lady Mubai."


    "Stand up!" Her voice was very gentle and peaceful. It should be the voice of a beautiful woman. Indeed, a lady with a protruding belly was being supported by a palace maid as she slowly walked over. She was an extremely beautiful woman. This kind of beauty is with the rhyme color and the elegance, the maturity.


    "Chenqie greets the empress dowager." Mubai said in a gentle voice.


    The empress dowager''s smile faded a bit. "What are you doing here, do not take good care of your pregnant body."


    Mubai smiled submissively, "When chenqie heard that Princess Laifu sacrificed her life to see the empress dowager, she rushed over to take a look when she woke up." Her voice was gentle and gentle, and she seemed to be a docile woman, but only she herself knew whether she was docile or not.


    "maidservant greets Young Lady Mubai." Xi Jiu Er bowed to the Mubai. Mubai laughed: "Princess Laifu, there is no need to be like this. You saved Esteemed Empress Dowager, that is a great merit! Today, I will thank Princess Laifu on behalf of him. "


    "Young Lady Mubai is too serious, this is something maidservant should do." Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly.


    From start to finish, Xi Jiu Er did not even blink once. This made the empress dowager look at him in a higher light.


    "Alright, you can go back now. You still have your body, you can''t be sloppy." Her Majesty said lightly. The smile on Mubai''s face froze and returned to its usual docility, "Yes, chenqie will take her leave now." With that, he turned around and left.


    "Princess Laifu needs to rest for a few days, don''t let anyone disturb her." After the empress dowager''s order, Xi Jiu Er suddenly pulled her hand and said, "Esteemed Empress Dowager, maidservant wants to go back."


    "What are you going back for?" The empress dowager was curious. "Look at you, you''re still weak."


    "This time, the Elder Sister Rong has angered father. I''m afraid when we go back, it will be ¡­" Xi Jiu Er quickly said: "maidservant wants to go back and advise father!"


    "You child, your father knows how to use you." The empress dowager didn''t have a good impression of Xi Hong Sheng, even if he couldn''t handle the man in her backyard, it would be hard for him to achieve anything big.


    "Empress Dowager ¡­" Xi Jiu Er pleaded: "maidservant will take good care of himself, maidservant feels much better now."


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager, just think of the princess'' intentions and help her." A Qing smiled faintly: "Just send an imperial physician along."


    The Empress Dowager hesitated before finally nodding. "Very well, we''ll do as you say."


    Xi Jiu Er was happy, she wanted to go back and watch the show. Today, Xi Wan Rong had lost so much face, so Xi Hong Sheng had nothing to do with this daughter of his, as long as he added fuel to the fire ¡­ Xi Wan Rong...


    When Xi Jiu Er returned to the residence, she heard that Xi Hong Sheng wanted to kick Xi Wan Rong out, and no one could stop him. Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. No one could stop him? Old Madame hated First Lady to her bones now, and she hated even her own granddaughter. They all said that her mother must have his daughter. These words were absolutely true. Who knew if Xi Wan Rong would drug him in the future?


    Therefore, the old Madame only said, "Master, you can handle it yourself." So she went to chant.


    The Third Wife only wished that Xi Wan Rong, the bane of the lot, could come out of the Xi Mansion. So be it! The rest of the Madame s did not speak either, as they left in silence.


    Xi Wan Rong fell into the ice cellar. She didn''t think that Xi Hong Sheng would be so heartless as to kick her out of her house. Xi Wan Feng knelt in front of Xi Hong Sheng and cried for a long time. In the end, he gained nothing, and was even grounded by Xi Hong Sheng.


    Xi Wan Rong stayed still in his own room, allowing the servants to persuade him was useless. What are you trying to do if you aren''t Miss? Everyone was busy to the point of losing their hearing, when they heard that Xi Jiu Er had returned, they immediately went to find Xi Jiu Er.


    "My Lord, come and persuade the Miss Rong to leave her house. We have come to help him pack her luggage, but seeing him in such a state is very difficult for us ¡­" "See if ¡­" The person who came was Mother Fang, and upon seeing Xi Jiu Er, he knew that this matter could be resolved.


    Xi Jiu Er loved you so much that she nodded: "I understand, you guys can leave. I will properly advise her from Elder Sister Rong''s side."


    The Mother Fang was eager to leave, so she led her people and left.

 C146

    Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui into the house. The room was a mess, with Xi Wan Rong sitting at the side, staring fiercely at her. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the number one beauty was now the ugliest. His hair was disheveled, his face haggard, his cheeks swollen and his clothes tattered.


    Where was the shadow of the number one beauty? He was like a beggar girl.


    Xi Wan Rong enunciated each word: "Xi Jiu Er, you slut, you were the one who framed me. That thousand years old ginseng was a fake!"


    "Hehe, Elder Sister Rong has wronged your sister again, am I framing you? It was obviously due to your greed, hehe ¡­ I let you take my thousand-year-old ginseng? What a joke! You said I was a bitch, but now you''re the one! " Xi Jiu Er taunted. In order to provoke Xi Jiu Er, she had worn expensive things on her head and hands.


    "You bitch. Do you think that I will be fine after leaving the Xi Mansion? "My grandfather is not a vegetarian. When he saw me like this, he would definitely help me." Xi Wan Rong said as he raised his head.


    "Hahahaha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er laughed as if she had heard a great joke, causing Xi Wan Rong to be baffled: "What are you laughing at?"


    But Xi Jiu Er did not answer, she just kept on laughing. Xi Wan Rong said angrily: "Why are you laughing when I''m asking you? What''s so funny, is it funny?"


    Xi Jiu Er giggled while covering her mouth, "Of course it''s you, Elder Sister Rong. Elder Sister Rong, do you really think that your grandfather can save you and stop you? If you leave this gate, what wouldn''t you know? You wouldn''t be a Miss Rong, so don''t think the Emperor won''t be able to find out what you''re ordering your uncle to.


    "What nonsense are you talking about? I don''t even know what you''re talking about." Xi Wan Rong screamed: "You little bitch, Xi Jiu Er, you better not be too proud!"


    "I don''t have anything to be proud of. What do I have to be proud of? I won''t tell you the truth, I was the one who caused your mother to steal people. The reason why your sister''s reputation is ruined is also because of me, and also because of me when you were reduced to such a state ¡ª Xi Wan Rong, do you hate me? " Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were wide open as she smiled, staring at Xi Wan Rong with intense hatred. That hatred that was completely released almost drowned Xi Wan Rong completely.


    Xi Wan Rong felt that his breathing was very hurried, it was almost to the point of suffocating. She knew all of this had something to do with Xi Jiu Er, the bitch!


    "I will kill you!" Xi Wan Rong said with scarlet eyes.


    "Kill me? Hahaha ¡­ Come, Xi Wan Rong, as long as you have the ability, I will accompany you anytime. Let me tell you this, what I like the most about you two being unable to beg for life and death, it makes me extremely satisfied just by looking at it, "Xi Jiu Er said, enunciating every single word," mother killed my mother, and even drugged me, so isn''t it very fair for me to kill her and come and punish the three of you? "


    "Xi Jiu Er, you slut!" Xi Wan Rong clenched his teeth and said, "You will die a horrible death."


    "Die a horrible death? I''ve already died once, how can you let me die a horrible death? " Xi Jiu Er smiled indifferently: "If you want to take revenge, then live on. I''ll only feel pleasure if you live. "I like to see you guys struggling. To me, I really like it."


    Xi Wan Rong had never seen such an insane Xi Jiu Er before. She realized that she wasn''t a match for Xi Jiu Er in the first place and her own life and death was entirely in Xi Jiu Er''s hands. In the past, she was Xi Hong Sheng''s daughter, so she could still provide some protection.


    Xi Wan Rong bit her lips and said hatefully: "Xi Jiu Er, one day, I will repay you everything that you give me. Just you wait."


    "Great!" "I''ll wait, so you can live a good life for me. It''s best if you live for a long time, because the days in the future will be very lively ¡­" Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth and laughed: "Liu Shui, let''s go."


    In a blink of an eye, Xi Jiu Er had reverted back to her usual look, and without any flaws, she brought Xi Jiu Er and left. Xi Wan Rong felt that it was really scary ¡ª she was really too naive, too laughable. Even though he said that Xi Jiu Er was wrong, he did not know that she was the one being toyed with and applauded.


    "Go to Mother Fang, Miss Rong has already thought it through. If she still insists on resisting, then tie her up." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    "Yes." Mother Fang knew that Xi Jiu Er would definitely say something to Xi Wan Rong after he entered, and the words that they, as slaves, could not hear, so they stood very far away. Even so, she had heard Xi Wan Rong''s screams and spoke unreservedly. Mother Fang and the others pretended not to hear anything. They were secretly afraid, in the future, if you offend anyone in the household, you must not offend Miss Jiu Er.


    Xi Wan Rong packed up his luggage and followed beside Zhu Er. Zhu Er said softly: "Miss Rong, why don''t we go find Master Wang."


    "Go on, I believe that Grandfather will ignore me." Xi Wan Rong nodded. However, he did not know that the moment he stepped out of the door, someone had noticed him. Not long after Xi Wan Rong left, he felt like everything had gone black, and that he had fainted.


    "Mm ¡­" "So painful ¡­" Xi Wan Rong opened his eyes and propped himself up with a blank look on his face. He looked around and saw all sorts of strange objects that he did not know where he was at the moment. That''s right, she had already been kicked out of Xi Mansion, how could she wake up now! What made Xi Wan Rong even more surprised was that the surroundings were completely red. The red ''double'' word, the red candles, the red furnishings, and the red silk on top. Even he himself was dressed in red.


    "Creaak." When the door opened, she was shocked to see someone she did not expect. It was none other than the Young Master Han who had always been yearning for Xi Wan Rong ¡ª ¡ª Han Chang Sheng. Han Chang Sheng had been paying attention to every move of the Xi Mansion. When he heard that he had been chased out, he sent people to wait for news, and when Xi Wan Rong came out, he planned to kidnap him. In any case, she was no longer Xi Family of the Xi Family, she was just like a commoner. While Xi Wan Rong was unconscious, he quickly made room and married Xi Wan Rong to him.


    Now, Xi Wan Rong was Young Master Han Rong.


    "You, why is it you?" When Xi Wan Rong saw Young Master Han, he had a bad feeling, especially that Young Master Han who was dressed in red robes.


    "Why not me? I am your husband now, and you are my Madame Rong. " Han Chang Sheng stared at the beauty he liked. His eyes made Xi Wan Rong feel extremely afraid: "You, what nonsense are you talking about?


    "It''s not your fault. While you were unconscious, we were married and you pressed your fingerprint on us." Even if the concubinage were to marry her, they would have to press their hand to become her hand. Once pressed, they would become her hand, and the man would be the one to hold the contract. Han Chang Sheng took out a piece of paper from his bosom and shook it in front of Xi Wan Rong with a pleased smile on his face.


    Xi Wan Rong''s face was ashen as he looked at Han Chang Sheng in disbelief ¡ª He actually treated her? No, no!


    "I don''t want to marry you, you''re not a man. You can''t do that at all, I don''t want to." Xi Wan Rong screamed loudly, causing Han Chang Sheng''s expression to change immediately. Which man would not want themselves to be called ''No, not a man'', especially when it''s Han Chang Sheng who had a flaw, how could she listen? Immediately, his expression changed as she shouted, "You b * tch, watch how I''ll take care of you."


    "Ah--don''t come near me, get out, get out of my way." Xi Wan Rong screamed.


    "Scram, I''m your legitimate husband, yet you''re telling me to scram!" Han Chang Sheng revealed a sinister and genuine face, fiercely pouncing towards Xi Wan Rong. No matter how much he used his ability on Xi Wan Rong, he did not have any ''reaction''. When she thought of the mocking words that Xi Wan Rong had said before, she immediately took out the whip that she prepared beforehand and whipped it with all her might.


    "Ahh!"


    "Bitch. Bitch. You actually look down on me. Watch how I beat you to death today." Han Chang Sheng flung his whip fiercely. And in Xi Wan Rong''s heart, he hated Xi Jiu Er even more. It was all because of this slut, all because of her! How could she have ended up like this if it weren''t for her? Ah ¡ª hate, hate!


    Xi Wu Er pursed his lips, wanting to suppress the wild pride in his heart, but no one stopped him after enduring for a long time. He laughed loudly, "Xi Wan Rong, you also have this day? Hahaha, a dignified direct descendant Miss has actually become a concubinage ¡­ From now on, see how I''ll deal with you. I will repay all the humiliation you gave me back then. "


    She knew Han Chang Sheng and Xi Wan Rong too well, they wouldn''t be so sweet together, maybe Xi Wan Rong was crying loudly right now. With the medicine that Xi Jiu Er gave him, Han Chang Sheng became more like a man in front of him. As for her, Xi Wan Rong, she was at most a toy that Han Chang Sheng wanted to get but had yet to get. Tired of playing with toys, they will be thrown away one day.


    An hour later, Xi Wu Er heard from the servant that Han Chang Sheng had left, and spiritedly brought Long Er over. She had endured for so many years, but was finally able to hold her head up high, why was she not happy and excited?


    The moment the door was pushed open, a bloody stench rushed towards Xi Wu Er''s nose. The smell made him want to puke, but he was more agitated. Swiftly walking over, he saw Xi Wan Rong lying on the bed, breathing in and out less. Her white and tender skin were filled with bruises, whip marks, bite marks ¡­ It looks bloody... Xi Wu Er instructed: "All dead or not, hurry up and call the doctor."


    "Yes." The maidservant immediately ran to find a doctor.


    "Madame Rong, Madame Rong ¡­" Xi Wu Er stepped forward and whispered.


    Xi Wan Rong moaned as he turned his head to look at Xi Wu Er, and immediately said: "Little Sister Wu''er, quickly save me. Han Chang Sheng is a beast, he isn''t human."


    "Rongzi Madame, how can you say such words? I only said that because I doted on you, you definitely said something that I was angry about, I am usually very gentle." Allow Madame to peacefully stay in the Han Estate. According to this grandpa''s liking of you, this grandpa will definitely spoil you. " Xi Wu Er''s eyes were filled with laughter: "In the future, we two sisters will serve Master well."


    Xi Wan Rong stared at Xi Wu Er with his eyes wide opened, as if he had seen a ghost. Xi Wu Er was unfazed: "What''s wrong? Is there something on my face? " Xi Wan Rong, there''s also a day where you fell into my hands. See how I''ll slowly play with you in the future, hahaha ¡­


    "Little Sister Wu''er, please save me, please save me." Xi Wan Rong ignored the pain on his body, grabbed Xi Wu Er''s hand and said softly: "Take this as big sister begging you."


    Xi Wu Er slowly withdrew her hand, her smile becoming more beautiful: "Did you not understand what I said? "You are now this grandpa''s concubine, serving this grandpa is your fortune. You can''t say such words in the future, this grandpa won''t be happy if he hears you say them."


    Xi Wan Rong had thought that Xi Wu Er was saying it for the servants to hear. Maybe those servants were Han Chang Sheng''s subordinates, so when he thought about how violent these men were, he felt really terrified. Maybe Xi Wu Er only asked him on the surface due to the pressure, but in reality, he was helping him.

 C147

    "Yes, Little Sister Wu''er is right." Xi Wan Rong thought until this point was understood, and then he continued to act along with Xi Wu Er. Xi Wu Er waved and dismissed the servants: "All of you can leave now. I need to talk to Madame and advise her."


    "Yes." As the servants retreated, they waited for Xi Wan Rong to pass before holding his hands emotionally: "Little Sister Wu''er, save me, help me escape."


    "Sure." Xi Wu Er smiled sweetly. Xi Wan Rong, escaped? How could I let you escape when you finally came in? Otherwise, how boring would the future be? Didn''t I say that I would return the pain you gave me? Didn''t you say that all the grievances and grievances I suffered before were all in vain?


    "Thank you, sister Wu''er. Thank you so much." Xi Wan Rong had even naively thought that Xi Wu Er would help her, but the Xi Wu Er who was obedient and sensible in Xi Mansion was still the same as ever. When the sky darkened and Han Chang Sheng "doted" on "Xi Wan Rong again, not a single part of Xi Wan Rong''s body was fine. Xi Wan Rong opened his eyes wide and stared at the top of her head. The past two days of suffering were like a dream, he hoped that she would wake up tomorrow and still be the original number one beauty, Xi Wan Rong!


    "Creaak." The door slowly opened. Xi Wan Rong sat up all of a sudden like a frightened bird, nervously looking at the door. So it was actually a maid. maid said in a low voice: "Rongzi, quickly follow me out. I''ll bring you out of the house."


    "Alright." Xi Wan Rong immediately became alert, and followed the servant to turn left and right in front of the house. Suddenly, the servant who was walking in front asked: "Miss Rong, what are you doing?


    Xi Wan Rong did not understand why the servant girl suddenly changed her appearance when she was still fine? He scolded, "What you do has nothing to do with you."


    The maidservant shook his head and said, "Miss Rong, don''t go.


    Xi Wan Rong felt that this servant was sick, right? Why did she say such weird things all of a sudden? So he said impatiently, "Why are you staying? Just tell me where the back door is and I''ll go find it myself. "


    "Is that so?" A gloomy and cold voice suddenly sounded in the darkness, causing Xi Wan Rong to shudder ¡ª ¡ª Han Chang Sheng.


    Xi Wan Rong immediately saw Han Chang Sheng and Xi Wu Er standing not far away with faces full of anger, while Xi Wu Er said with a pained heart: "Elder sister, why are you like this? Since you''re already married to this grandpa, you should stay by this grandpa''s side.


    "Xi Wu Er you slut, you tried to kill me, slut!" Even if Xi Wan Rong was an idiot, he understood that he had been ruthlessly tricked by Xi Wu Er. "I trusted you so much, you actually framed me."


    "I don''t know what you''re talking about. Elder sister, you''re still the same. You''ve committed a crime and you''re not willing to admit it. It''s all my fault. I''m already used to it." Xi Wu Er said with teardrops falling down: "But you shouldn''t have called me a beast, I also like you because you didn''t listen to me. As long as you listen to me obediently, nothing will happen." She knew that Han Chang Sheng liked her one thing, she was obedient. He liked obedient women, he didn''t like women that went against him. What made her happy was that Xi Wan Rong was such a woman. No matter how much suffering she had to endure, it would be difficult for her to get rid of this problem.


    Therefore, no matter how much he liked Xi Wan Rong, he couldn''t tolerate her temper.


    Han Chang Sheng was insulted like this by Xi Wan Rong time and time again, which made him feel like he had lost all face. He strode to the side and grabbed Xi Wan Rong''s head, then fiercely slapped him: "This daddy is yours, if you dare say this to me again, see how I''ll beat you to death."


    When had Xi Wan Rong ever been humiliated like this? She had been a treasure in the hands of the First Lady since she was young, and the one whom the Old Madame doted on the most was her. When she thought about her temper, she immediately rose up and roared, "You Han girl, beat me to death, just beat me to death ¡­ I''m dead. "


    "Wanting to die is not that easy." With that, Han Chang Sheng dragged her away, and without any explanation, he started to walk towards Xi Wan Rong''s residence. Xi Wan Rong shouted loudly. Xi Wu Er was extremely pleased as he stared at her miserable state. Xi Wan Rong, you have that day as well.


    Xi Wan Rong was ruthlessly thrown onto the bed, and one did not need to think to know what would happen next. She screamed, she cursed, and in the end all she could do was cry. Han Chang Sheng beat her to death like an animal, roaring as he beat her, "You slut, you''re now my, Han Chang Sheng''s, man, and you don''t listen to me, see if I beat you to death or not."


    Xi Wan Rong finally compromised ¡­ She began to beg for mercy, hoping that Han Chang Sheng would show mercy.


    "That''s more like it. As long as you listen to me carefully, I promise I won''t hit you. I''ll even love you a lot." In the next moment, Hai Hua Si''s furious man became a man that could drip water. Xi Wan Rong was completely unsuitable and had goosebumps all over his body.


    Xi Wan Rong bit her lips. She endured it, as long as Han Chang Sheng relaxed his guard against her, she could escape! At that time, she would slowly take care of Xi Wu Er and Xi Jiu Er, the two wretched people, and Han Chang Sheng. She must think of a way to kill this damnable man.


    "You mean what you say?" Xi Wan Rong said in a sobbing tone.


    "Of course I mean it." Han Chang Sheng caressed her little face: "As long as you listen to me, I''ll treat you like a treasure and pamper you."


    "Alright, I''ll be obedient in the future." Xi Wan Rong felt like she was about to bite ¡­


    After receiving the promise, Han Chang Sheng left happily. He even instructed the doctor to treat Xi Wan Rong. Xi Wan Rong who had never been pampered before immediately received an incomparably pampered concubinage. The servants did not know Xi Wan Rong''s true identity. They thought that Xi Wan Rong was just a beautiful concubine.


    "Madame Rong, how are you these few days?" Xi Wu Er brought a servant girl along as he walked over with a smile. When Xi Wan Rong thought of the trap she had set for him, he became extremely furious: "Bitch, just you wait, see how I''ll take care of you in the future."


    "Wow." Xi Wu Er raised his eyebrows and laughed: "Actually, I''ve wanted to take care of you for a long time. I just want to marry a good husband, take over your mother and daughter to use me again and again, and in the end intend to break the promise to marry me to an old man in his fifties. All of you deserve the reward that you received today. They all said it wasn''t that they hadn''t reported anything, but that the time wasn''t up yet. Now Arrived... "Hahaha ¡­"


    Xi Wan Rong never thought that the words from that day would actually reach Xi Wu Er''s ears! He raised his chin without admitting defeat and said, "That''s right, but so what? It was you who got the worst of it, getting you to take care of Xi Jiu Er, and then got hit by him. It was you who was useless. "


    "Haha, I''m useless. Your mother was useful, but in the end, wasn''t your reputation going crazy because of Xi Jiu Er? You''re useful, take a look at your current life. To tell you the truth, Xi Jiu Er had long leaked the news to Han Chang Sheng that you were no longer a member of the Xi Mansion, and that arrogant older sister of yours, haha, originally did not have any looks at all. Look, this was all bestowed to me by Xi Jiu Er. " Xi Wu Er asked sarcastically. You guys are so powerful, go fight, see what happens to you guys?


    Only now did Xi Wan Rong know that Xi Wu Er and Xi Jiu Er were already teaming up. No wonder they lost so miserably, and refused to admit defeat on the surface: "Hmph, you aren''t any better."


    "I''ve chosen this path, I''ve never regretted it. I originally hated why I liked you, but now I''m very happy!" For a dignified direct Miss to be able to become a lowly concubinage ¡­ Haha ¡­ They all thought that it was extremely ridiculous. " Xi Wu Er ridiculed, "From today onwards, we must ''get along well''."


    "Yeah, get along." Xi Wan Rong did not believe that he could not win against Xi Wu Er, hmph.


    Mrs. Han felt that her son was simply messing around, and didn''t like Xi Wan Rong much. Xi Wan Rong''s reputation was too bad, she didn''t want her to enter at all. If not for her son''s repeated pleas, she would not have nodded her head and agreed. During this period of time, Mrs. Han also knew what had happened to Xi Wan Rong. He felt that he deserved it even if he was beaten to death.


    The next day, while Xi Wu Er was talking to Mrs. Han, Mrs. Han saw that Xi Wu Er was holding onto a child''s apron so she asked in shock: "You have it?" His heart was immediately filled with ecstasy.


    "mother, I just want to do it first ¡­" Xi Wu Er said somewhat unhappily.


    Mrs. Han was so happy that his heart suddenly felt a little disappointed. At this time, he came outside to report that Xi Wan Rong had come. Mrs. Han was startled: "Let her go back and take good care of her health." This could be considered an indirect order to expel a guest.


    However, Xi Wan Rong came over without a care. She wanted to let go of Han Chang Sheng''s psychological defenses, not only to make him happy, she also wanted to make his mother happy. Hearing that the Mrs. Han did not like her and Xi Wan Rong was still unhappy, hearing Xi Wu Er''s voice from inside, she immediately changed her mind.


    "What are you doing here? Isn''t it supposed to be raised by you? " Mrs. Han asked with a darkened face.


    Xi Wan Rong bowed and muttered: "I felt my body was a bit better, so I came to visit you." In an instant, she felt as if she had been humiliated to the extreme. She, as a dignified direct descendant of a rich family, was actually so lowly and humble, to the point that she even had to look at the others'' expressions.


    "Hmm, it''s rare for you to have this kind of intention." Mrs. Han said indifferently: "Don''t be so busy greeting me, there''s someone sitting beside me."


    Xi Wan Rong bit her lips until they looked like they were about to bleed. After a long while, she finally raised her head and looked at Xi Wu Er with a smile. Only after Xi Wan Rong bowed did Xi Wu Er stand up and say: "We are all sisters of our own. In the future, all of us must serve this elder. There is no need to be so polite."


    Xi Wan Rong''s face immediately fell, he did not see that Xi Wu Er was actually an expert at acting.

 C148

    Today, Xi Jiu Er was sleeping soundly in the space, with the soft and weak voice of a baby transmitted through the haze. It was soft and cowardly, and carried an endless amount of satisfaction and yearning.


    "mother... mother... " The voice seemed to be right beside him, and it was very real, "mother ¡­ mother? "


    Xi Jiu Er struggled to open her thousand kilogram heavy eyelids, and turned her head to look at the side. The child was about ten months old. He had a head full of water, and his big watery eyes were blinking at the child. The sweet peach''s small mouth was drooling a little ¡­ Pouting her small fart, she extended her upper body, extending her lackey''s arms, opening her mouth wide as she grabbed towards Xi Jiu Er.


    "mother ¡­" After the child said this, his lower leg went soft and he fell into Xi Jiu Er''s embrace, his mouth letting out a gurgling sound, as if he was laughing.


    Xi Jiu Er was afraid that he had gotten hurt, hence she immediately hugged him and checked his entire body. Needless to say, this child was so fat that Xi Jiu Er almost couldn''t move it.


    The child didn''t know if he understood or not, but he still felt that he was being praised. He let out a "gege gege" sound of laughter, and his chubby hands slapped towards Xi Jiu Er''s face. To be honest, this little fellow''s punches hurt quite a bit.


    "Aiyo, be gentler!" Xi Jiu Er turned her head while hiding and shouted.


    Eh, why is there no movement? Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look. Aiyo, I can''t take it anymore, the little guy pouted its lips that could even hang oil bottles, and cried as its eyes turned red.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t know why, but she felt that his appearance was extremely cute. She immediately hugged his chest and kissed her fiercely, "Little darling, why are you so cute?" Xi Ping was the most beautiful child that Xi Jiu Er had ever seen, but compared to this child, this child was like a crystal clear jade, carved from jade.


    "Cluck, cluck ¡­" Cluck, cluck, cluck ¡­ "Heehee ¡­" The innocent laughter was pleasant.


    Xi Jiu Er took a whiff of the faint fragrance of the milk, the smell of the soft baby''s skin. As she thought about it, she hugged the child even more tightly.


    "mother ¡­"


    Hmm, how about I give birth to a baby like that in the future? Xi Jiu Er thought in her heart, everyone said that the child would grow into a parent, and in the future, he would have to find a good-looking man to give him a new life. Mu Qiu Shui? Xiao Feng? Xi Jiu Er''s thoughts flew somewhere...


    "Crack!"


    Xi Jiu Er sucked in a cold breath of air. Xi Jiu Er turned her head around and saw the little baby putting effort into "nibbling" on her face, drool was all over the place. Xi Jiu Er pouted in pain, and immediately comforted her: "Stop biting, aiyo, stop biting, it''s so painful, it hurts so much ¡­ ¡­"


    Get... The little guy suddenly stiffened his body as if he had suffered a great grievance. His small mouth curled up into a wail as he began to wail. "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu ¡­" "Wow, wow, wow ¡­"


    As expected, the little child became too fast like Tian''er, saying ''do something'' every time. Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said: "My darling, my darling, my darling, Aunt did not say anything wrong. Be good, don''t cry, if you don''t cry, you won''t be cute, you won''t look good. Our baby is the prettiest and loveliest, so let''s not cry. "


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" mother... "Love ¡­" Her crying voice was getting softer and softer as her arms continued to hug Xi Jiu Er tightly. She was so wronged that no one knew what she was saying.


    "Love, love! Xi Jiu Er had doubts in her heart, this child was called mother more than once. Could it be that he treated him as mother recognizing the wrong person? That soft and small body seemed to have no bones, as it cuddled into her embrace. At that moment, Xi Jiu Er felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.


    "Throw ¡­" Throw ¡­ "No ¡­" He sobbed.


    Uh, Xi Jiu Er didn''t understand what he was saying, but after thinking it over she said: "Mmm mmm, do you want to cry, don''t cry."


    The child''s temperament suddenly changed and she started to sob, "No, no, no, no," causing Xi Jiu Er to be completely clueless as to what the little fellow was trying to say, he could only follow his intentions and comfort her, "En, no, no, no. "Baby is so cute that you can neither lose nor lose it."


    Hmm, I guessed right this time. He didn''t lose his temper. Xi Jiu Er coaxed the child until he was weak and gradually fell asleep. She patted his back and gradually fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, he discovered that they were actually in space, making Xi Jiu Er unable to react for a moment.


    "Master, you''re dreaming." Qiu Qiu''s tone was very strange, Xi Jiu Er could detect it: "What''s wrong?"


    Qiu Qiu said: "In rare cases, you wouldn''t dream about it in space!"


    Yeah, I didn''t even dream about sleeping in the space before, why did I dream about it this time? Xi Jiu Er could not understand, could it be that this dream had a special meaning? Unfortunately, would she still have a chance to see that child in the future? Cute was cute, but she had a big temper.


    "Master, what did you dream?" Qiu Qiu asked curiously.


    "I dreamt of a fat child ¡­"


    Qiu Qiu''s eyes suddenly widened, and stared at Xi Jiu Er''s lower abdomen, causing him to feel a chill down her spine, and asked anxiously: "What''s wrong?"


    After a long while, Qiu Qiu finally restrained his expression and said: "Master, if Qiu Qiu is not mistaken, you are pregnant."


    What? Pregnant? Xi Jiu Er''s eyeballs were about to pop out, and she said immediately: "Impossible, what happened between Xiao Feng and I was a long time ago, how could I possibly only get pregnant after a year, it won''t happen."


    Qiu Qiu hurriedly said: "Qiu Qiu knows Master will not believe it, but the truth is as it is! Master, think about when you and that Xiao Feng happened and when you obtained this space. "


    "Yes ¡­" Xi Jiu Er recalled it carefully and suddenly opened her eyes wide. She and Xiao Feng had happened in the middle of the night. They had used the daylight to testify for the Third Wife, then returned to find out that the bracelet had entered her spatial realm. Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in her heart. "It happened on the same day ¡­"


    Qiu Qiu then said: "Then that''s right, a woman cannot be pregnant immediately, she will wait a day or two. Maybe if the master gets the space to conceive immediately after, the child will be different because of the space. "


    "What''s different ¡­" Xi Jiu Er licked her dry lips. She hadn''t realized that she was pregnant even after a year, so how long was this child going to last?


    "The child will grow up a bit slower. Normal people are born in October, and the owner may have to spend three to five years ¡­ "Maybe longer ¡­" Qiu Qiu said uncertainly, "Perhaps because the early stages of the child''s growth is slow, and the later stages may grow a little faster, but that is not necessarily the case."


    "Qiu Qiu, the child has been in my stomach for a year yet you still haven''t discovered it. Does this mean the child has just grown up?" Xi Jiu Er stuttered out her conclusion, "Then, is it ten months of gestation, and I have to be pregnant for ten years?"


    Qiu Qiu shook his head, indicating that he was not sure either. Xi Jiu Er sat on the ground in a dejected manner. Ten years ¡­ She could still endure ten years of pregnancy, but now her belly was growing bigger and bigger, and she was growing a big belly year by year?


    "Master, it depends on the situation ¡­" Qiu Qiu also doesn''t know what will happen, so we can only let nature take its course. " Qiu Qiu looked at Xi Jiu Er''s complicated face that was twisted to the point that he didn''t know what to say.


    The child''s face in his dream became clearer and clearer. That short encounter with her had an indescribable happiness for Xi Jiu Er. Thinking about that, Xi Jiu Er relaxed, she caressed her flat belly with a sweet and happy smile: "Right, everything should be as it should be."


    "Master, I wonder if Qiu Qiu will change in comparison to his pregnant body ¡­"


    Body? No ¡­. It was very normal that the previous month came by, as if this month came rather late ¡­ When the time comes, think of a way to tell Liu Xiang about this. Her life was managed by Liu Xiang, she was loyal to him and it was not a problem for her to keep this a secret.


    She knew medicine, but she didn''t notice it at all! Sigh, forget it, just as Qiu Qiu had said, let everything be as it was.


    Xi Jiu Er took her pulse... "Hmm ¡­" This meridian was just like an ordinary meridian; one would not be able to feel that they were pregnant. It was extremely strange.

 C149

    No matter how much we loved each other in the past, we had to abide by the rules. Therefore ¡ª "Xi Wu Er deliberately paused, and upon seeing the sudden change in Xi Wan Rong''s expression, her smile became even more beautiful:" A few days ago, your health wasn''t good. Since you''re here, then let''s toast this tea to you today. "


    "You ¡­" Xi Wan Rong wanted to say something and stop her in time. She glared fiercely at Xi Wu Er. He actually gave her a cup of tea? Once the tea was served, her identity as a concubinage would be realized!


    "Not bad, I''ll give you my tea today." The Mrs. Han never treated Xi Wan Rong as her direct descendant at all. What number one beauty, or even her direct descendant, in the end, she was just a destitute Miss who had been kicked out of her home. Even the Empress Dowager didn''t like her, and neither did her own family ¡­ Therefore, the more Mrs. Han looked at Xi Wan Rong, the more she disliked him.


    "mother is right, Long Er, go and bring some tea for us to raise our Madame." Xi Wu Er smiled faintly and then sat back down, quietly watching Xi Wan Rong waiting for her to give him some tea.


    It was said that a tiger that fell to the ground was bullied by a dog. A phoenix that fell to the ground was no better than a chicken. Xi Wan Rong''s heart was frantically twisting, anger and unwillingness to attack him, she hated him! When the tea was brought over, Long Er still felt that Xi Wan Rong was a shadow over him. After all, he was not a very popular person in the Xi Mansion.


    "Wo, wh. "The tea is here ¡­" Long Er handed the tea over to Xi Wan Rong, not daring to look at his expression. Xi Wan Rong''s body shook a bit, planning to use fainting to end it.


    "Quick, support Madame Rong and she looks like she''s about to faint." Xi Wu Er immediately shouted out loud. He seemed to be very worried about her body, but in truth, that smiling expression made Xi Wan Rong want to roar.


    Xi Wan Rong stood there for a while, the Mrs. Han did not urge him, and Xi Wu Er just sat there quietly. It was the truth. Looking at Xi Wan Rong''s distorted face, she was still appreciating it very happily. Interesting, funny!


    Slowly, as if he understood his fate, Xi Wan Rong knelt down and took the cup of tea from the tray, then handed it to Xi Wu Er. With a gnashing of teeth, he said: "Madame, drink some tea."


    Xi Wu Er''s smile was inconvenient, as though he did not hear anything, he turned to Mrs. Han and said: "mother, my daughter-in-law suddenly thought of something!"


    "Speak." Mrs. Han knew that Xi Wu Er wanted to show off his might to Xi Wan Rong, and she liked Xi Wu Er more than him. Therefore, he was very willing to cooperate with Xi Wu Er.


    "It''s like this. My daughter-in-law suddenly wishes for me to wear such a large robe. I''d like to make a robe for me ¡­" Actually, Xi Wu Er could have completely measured Han Chang Sheng''s clothes. Xi Wan Rong knew that Xi Wu Er was obviously trying to make things difficult for him, and the more he thought about it, the calmer he became. There was no rush, no rush, there would be a day when she would have to repay the humiliation Xi Wu Er gave her a hundredfold, and there would also be a day when Xi Jiu Er ¡­ Don''t be too happy too early.


    After talking for about an hour, Xi Wu Er suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Aiya, you actually forgot that Madame is still here, look at my memory, come, quickly get up."


    Xi Wu Er went to take the tea cup, when she suddenly ''ah!'' Xi Wan Rong screamed miserably, and the tea poured onto her arm, causing her face to pale from the pain. Xi Wu Er''s face sank: What''s going on, are you kneeling too long, and your hands are unsteady?


    "Nope." Xi Wan Rong took a deep breath.


    "Forget it, just treat this tea as me drinking it. In the future, we sisters will take care of each other and take care of grandpa together." Xi Wu Er helped Xi Wan Rong up, looking like he was the boss.


    Xi Wan Rong listened quietly and unwillingly said, "Yes."


    "You''re just in time. Go back." Xi Wu Er was concerned: "You have to take good care of your body, or else how do you plan to serve me." They revealed a hint of schadenfreude.


    When he thought about how Han Chang Sheng had beaten him up, Xi Wan Rong''s face suddenly changed. His eyes were filled with fear, and even his body was trembling uncontrollably in fear. Xi Wu Er was satisfied with the effect he achieved, and looked at Xi Wu Er''s swaying back, Xi Wu Er laughed sarcastically.


    What direct daughter, wasn''t they still in his hands? The days in the future are long, just wait to grind them slowly! At night, Han Chang Sheng went to Xi Wan Rong''s room, and then came back with a face full of reproach.


    "Why are you making things difficult for Wan Rong?" Han Chang Sheng said in displeasure.


    Xi Wu Er was startled, but facing Han Chang Sheng''s questioning, she was obviously impatient. "Master, I don''t know what to say!"


    Han Chang Sheng said: "You still dare to quibble? Wan Rong will offer you tea today, how did you make it difficult for her? Her hands were burned! "


    Xi Wu Er immediately understood. The reason for their relationship was Xi Wan Rong complaining at the back, hmph! After so many years, she still only had that tiny bit of potential. She didn''t have any brains at all.


    Today, she accidentally knocked over the teacup. Not only the mother can testify for me, the servants in her room can testify as well! If this grandpa does not believe in me, I can ask mother! " Xi Wu Er felt wronged, his eyes completely red.


    When Han Chang Sheng heard it, he believed it. He felt a bit apologetic in his heart, and said: "I was wrong about this, don''t take it to heart!"


    Being able to apologize is already very rare, so of course she wouldn''t fuss over it. She smiled and said: "How can I be angry with this grandpa! This humble one truly wants our Han Family family and everything else to live happily. This master doesn''t need to worry, big sister and I will get along well!


    Han Chang Sheng nodded his head in gratification: "I am very happy that you can think like this."


    Compared to his son''s top priority, his heart had unknowingly turned towards Xi Wu Er.


    After Han Chang Sheng left, Xi Wu Er''s face also became cold as he coldly snorted. Xi Wan Rong was really shameless, he even used the Xi Mansion technique, it was truly a disgrace.


    On this day, Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt a strange feeling from her body, but she could not figure out why. As a doctor, she felt that there was nothing wrong with him. Could it be that she was a child?


    Children... Xi Jiu Er took out her whistle, and about a quarter of an hour later, a pure white and blue cat appeared in the room. The cat gracefully walked towards Xi Jiu Er, and asked in a voice that Xi Jiu Er could hear: "Master, are you looking for Qiu Qiu?"


    "Qiu Qiu, I feel unwell, what''s wrong with me?" Xi Jiu Er asked in confusion.


    Qiu Qiu reached out his paw and gently pressed it on Xi Jiu Er''s lower abdomen. He closed his eyes and felt it quietly ¡­ Not long after, he put down his cat claws and said, "Master, your baby is growing, so you will feel unwell. Master and baby are one and the same, so of course the owner can feel the growth of the baby. "


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er rubbed her lower abdomen and muttered. It feels amazing... Previously, Qiu Qiu had told her that this child would probably grow much slower than the other children.


    "Qiu Qiu, are you used to using this body?" Xi Jiu Er asked with a smile. She had unintentionally picked up this cat. At that time, it was on the verge of death and had already become Qiu Qiu''s body. After Qiu Qiu received this body, he liked to play outside. As long as it whistled, it could come back anywhere.


    Qiu Qiu frequently went to absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. No matter how good the space was, it was not better than being able to feed a person with the Spirit of All Things. In addition, the space had expanded quite a bit, allowing the spring water to become even more clear.


    Qiu Qiu nodded his head: "Alright, I''ve recently found a place with a lot of spirit energy. Look, does Qiu Qiu look beautiful now?"


    Xi Jiu Er studied it, but she could not find any difference. It was still the same cat.


    "It''s pretty, it''s really pretty." Xi Jiu Er praised.


    Qiu Qiu was so happy that it seemed like something was going on, and he meowed non-stop. Liu Xiang entered and asked, "Princess, why is there a cat here?"


    "Oh, this cat is probably lost." Xi Jiu Er smiled and said: "Let''s go and play."


    Qiu Qiu meowed a few more times, then jumped out of the window.


    "Princess, are you alright?" Liu Xiang asked.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while and asked: "Liu Xiang, how long has it been since I last came to that place?"


    Liu Xiang was startled. She was the one who held onto these things, and after counting with her fingers, her face immediately paled: "Princess, it seems, it''s been about fifteen days ¡­ Servant... Servant... " Because Xi Jiu Er''s treatment of the medicine had always been irregular, Liu Xiang did not pay attention to it either.


    But fifteen days ¡­ It''s a little too long.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat. She made a decision in her heart, "Liu Xiang, maybe I''ve gotten sick, it''s that kind of sickness that won''t come. You must not tell this sickness to anyone, even Liu Shui, don''t you know about it?"


    Liu Shui was different from Liu Xiang, Liu Xiang had served him since a young age, Liu Shui ¡­


    "Princess, you''ve gotten this disease at such a young age. You need to be treated." Liu Xiang panicked, she had heard that it was difficult for women to get pregnant after getting this kind of child, what should she do in the future?


    "Don''t worry, I''ll get a doctor." Xi Jiu Er tried to console her.


    "Princess." sheart-nourishing hall''s Doctor Xiao Feng is not bad, he is Old Senior Sun''s disciple... " Before Liu Xiang could finish, he was interrupted by Xi Jiu Er: "Don''t talk about him, there are more doctors better than him, I will look for someone else, you don''t have to worry about that."


    "..." "Oh." Liu Xiang realized that Xi Jiu Er treated Doctor Xiao Feng like she was ¡­ Good boy, I can''t say why.


    Han Family, Xi Wan Rong had long twisted his heart after being scolded by Han Chang Sheng. Now that he had scrunched up and become abnormal, Xi Wu Er, hmph, just you wait, I have a way to take care of you.


    Xi Wan Rong felt that the Han Family was just a cage that almost made her puke. Xi Wu Er was his own concubinage, but Han Chang Sheng was not a man ¡­ Also, the Mrs. Han did not like him ¡­ How could he continue to live like this?


    He had to escape. He had to escape. Xi Wan Rong firmly believed that she would definitely leave the Han Family.

 C150

    Xi Wu Er vaguely felt that his entire body was unbearably hot, and borrowed the heat to feel his body being pressed on by some heavy object. He was shocked in his heart, could it be that Han Chang Sheng came to his room in the middle of the night? Opening his eyes, he realized through the faint candlelight that it was an unfamiliar man. Xi Wu Er recognized this man, he was the son of a household manager''s mother!


    "Scram." Xi Wu Er bellowed, wanting to push him away, but he realised that she had already lost all sense of reason, and was hugging her tightly, going crazy. Xi Wu Er was furious, he could not scream for help now, if he were to yell for help, he would know that she had been duped by the servants before. When the time came, Han Chengsheng would definitely not let him off easy.


    "Dong", Xi Wu Er felt the man on his body stiffen, and slowly slid down. It''s Long Er! She held onto the vase and trembled as she asked: "Madame, are you alright?"


    "Not bad. "Help me up." Xi Wu Er gasped for breath as he stood up, staring at the servant''s brain that was working extremely quickly, and said to Long Er: "Let''s go, let''s throw him in the well in the backyard."


    "But, there''s someone outside ¡­" Long Er said somewhat fearfully. She followed Xi Wu Er and lived a life of looking up to others'' breaths, but her days in the Han Residence gradually improved. It caused her to feel a little bit scared when she killed someone ¡­


    "Don''t worry, I have a way." Xi Wu Er said blandly: "As long as you do as I tell you, if this matter is discovered, don''t blame me for killing everyone in Madame to keep your mouth shut."


    Long Er knew that Xi Wu Er could do anything he wanted, so she naturally believed that Xi Wu Er would not even try to kill her because he didn''t want her to know about it. Thinking about how precious her life was, she grew bold, "Yes, Servant will definitely do as Madame says."


    "That''s more like it." Xi Wu Er smiled slightly. Fortunately, Long Er was on duty in the Inner Academy today, otherwise, it would be difficult for him to deal with this man. The two of them jointly carried the servant out of the courtyard. In the backyard, there was a dried up well that was so deep that one couldn''t see the bottom of it.


    That manservant was very powerful and the two of them were sweating profusely! They arrived at the backyard in just a short while, and the guard at the gate wasn''t there? Xi Wu Er gave Long Er a look, and let her see inside. Long Er carefully put down the man''s legs, and quietly looked over ¡­ He saw an old woman sleeping soundly.


    The old woman guarding the back yard had been waiting for more than ten years without any problems, so she had already gotten used to sleeping! Now, it was truly a time when everyone was acting carefree, and the old woman was sleeping like a dead pig.


    Xi Wu Er and Long Er carried the man and carefully avoided the old granny, then arrived at the dry well. The two of them then pushed the man back into the well with some effort before the sound gradually died down.


    How could the two of them even have the time to breathe? He then quietly went back to his seat and sat down. Then, he heard the sound of movement outside. The master and the servant looked at each other. It seemed that this matter had been deliberately arranged by someone.


    "Madame? Madame? " Xi Wu Er shook his head, signalling for her to be quiet for the moment. It seemed that the old granny was not the only one outside the door, there was also Zhu Er, the servant girl beside Xi Wan Rong: "It can''t be that the thieves have already killed Madame ¡­"


    Zhu Er? Xi Wan Rong? No matter how foolish Xi Wu Er was, he knew that he had been tricked by someone. He sneered and muttered a few words in front of Long Er''s ears, causing him to nod his head.


    "Kick the door." The old woman shouted and the door was kicked open! Long Er said: "Who is it, making noise in the middle of the night and not letting Madame sleep? Madame was already woken up by you guys. "


    Creak ~ ~ The door opened. There were many people standing outside, Long Er recognized the old lady in the lead as being from the Mrs. Han''s house. Zhu Er stood beside her. Long Er knew that she was not Zhu Er''s match, but since the situation had already developed to this point, she could only act.


    "What are you all doing?" Long Er braced herself and asked: "Madame was woken up by you."


    "Is the Madame still in the house?" The old granny frowned with suspicion, "Since Madame is inside, why are you only opening the door now?"


    "Servant is better off dead asleep ¡­" Long Er answered and then asked Zhu Er: "What happened?"


    Zhu Er''s expression could not be seen, at least, Long Er could not! She only heard Zhu Er say: "It''s nothing much, there''s a thief in the manor, and they''re looking for him right now. They probably went into the backyard."


    "So that''s how it is ¡­" Long Er nodded.


    "Long Er, what happened?" An impatient voice came out, Xi Wu Er came out with his clothes covering his hazy eyes and said unhappily: "Why aren''t you sleeping in the middle of the night? "


    The old granny repeated herself once more. Zhu Er could tell what was on her mind, but her ears were pricked up as she tried to hear what was going on in the house.


    "You want to go in and search, right? Alright, you guys hurry up and finish cleaning up so that you can get lost! " Xi Wu Er''s face was filled with displeasure, he angrily sat down, crossed his legs, and ordered Long Er to pour him a cup of tea.


    Zhu Er immediately followed the old granny and the woman into the house to investigate. Even after searching every inch of the place, she did not find anyone around, causing him to be unable to sit still any longer. Weird, she was waiting in the outer court. She saw someone go in but didn''t come out. Why is there no one here? Could it be that she would have to fly with wings in place?


    Clang clang. "Zhu Er seemed to have found something at her feet, she lowered his head and saw that it was a vase and there were traces of blood on the vase. Zhu Er immediately picked up the vase and gave it to the old granny, the old granny asked:" Madame, what is this? "


    "What else could it be if it''s just a little bit of blood?" Xi Wu Er said unconcernedly: "My servant''s finger is injured, she probably touched the flower vase."


    Everyone was clear that Long Er was injured. Yesterday, Long Er did not carefully cut his finger, so a lot of people saw it, so the old granny did not pursue the matter.


    "Then why on the ground?" The old woman didn''t give up and continued to ask.


    "Didn''t you guys knock on the door just now? The young maid was so scared that he accidentally knocked down the vase." Xi Wu Er replied lazily, not a single flaw could be seen.


    The old granny remained silent for a while, then led her people and left. Zhu Er was somewhat unwilling to open her mouth and say anything, but in the end, she did not say anything. Once they left, both Xi Wu Er and Xi Wan Rong seemed to become discouraged. After a long while, Xi Wu Er finally snorted coldly: "Xi Wan Rong, just you wait, no wonder every time you lose to Xi Jiu Er, you have such little tricks up your sleeve? That really makes me have a whole new level of respect for you! "


    "Madame, the corpse in the backyard ¡­" Long Er asked carefully.


    "There are no corpses in the backyard!" Xi Wu Er glared and bellowed: Let''s see how I''ll tear your mouth to shreds if you continue spouting nonsense at me!


    "Yes, Servant knows his wrong." Long Er hurriedly said. Xi Wu Er''s temper was getting hotter and hotter, his personality was getting harder to predict. In the past, it was easier to serve her, but now, it was simply ¡­ His back was covered in a thin layer of sweat.


    Xi Wan Rong knew that Xi Wu Er had escaped death and snorted coldly, "Consider yourself gone far away from Xi Wu Er. You won''t be so lucky next time."


    The body was found within a few days, and the stench of it grew stronger and stronger on a hot day, giving rise to ideas. Xi Wu Er was called over by the Mrs. Han: "Do you know about the lives in your backyard?"


    "A daughter-in-law only knows when someone mentions it." Xi Wu Er said with some lingering fear.


    Mrs. Han frowned: "You, this master, how did you become a master? You don''t even know that a dead person lives in the backyard?" Xi Wu Er was the future owner of the Han Family, no matter what, he had to know a thing or two.


    Xi Wu Er said in fear: "Your daughter-in-law knows her wrongs. In the future, if your daughter-in-law still doesn''t understand things, I hope mother can ask for more guidance."


    Mrs. Han paused for a moment before replying, "Alright, get up." Xi Wu Er was born from a concubine, how could the First Lady teach her the way of the family? Besides, look at what kind of good girls she has. Hmph, none of them are good people.


    "Go and get the old woman guarding the gate in the backyard." When she asked about the corpses in the well, her expression changed greatly. "Old Madame, this old servant does not know what happened. This old servant was on guard at night and did not see anyone enter, I think I fell into the well during the day."


    These words completely eliminated him. Her duty was to watch the backyard at night and sleep during the day. Since she did not see anyone fall into the well at night, it was during the day.


    "Old Madame ¡­" A soft voice came out, following it was Xi Wan Rong''s peerless beauty. After bowing to Mrs. Han, he could not help but fire at Xi Wu Er: "Madame, the person who died was a young man, why did he appear in the backyard of Madame?"


    Xi Wu Er was confused: "How would I know about this?"


    "You don''t know? "Hmph, maybe that person is your sweetheart!" Xi Wan Rong wanted to accuse Xi Wu Er of everything he said, so he turned and bowed to the Mrs. Han, "Old Madame, you should investigate this matter thoroughly. They say the Madame is stealing people. "


    "You, you''re slandering me." Xi Wu Er feigned shock and anger as he said.


    The Mrs. Han also felt that something was amiss. Why would a grown man appear in the dried up well in Xi Wu Er''s backyard? Could it be that the two of them really had some shady business? But Xi Wu Er didn''t look like him. Although he was shocked, he did not like Xi Wan Rong''s aggressive look.


    "I know what to do. You just have to do your job." The Mrs. Han looked at Xi Wan Rong in displeasure, the look of contempt in her eyes made Xi Wan Rong curse in her heart. Just you wait, none of those people who hurt her will be let off!


    "Yes." Xi Wan Rong unwillingly retreated.


    "mother ¡­"


    Mrs. Han raised his hand and said indifferently: "I believe that you are innocent. You won''t be so foolish as to ruin your own future."


    Xi Wu Er''s heart skipped a beat, then laughed: "As long as mother trusts my daughter-in-law, I will be satisfied."


    The Mrs. Han''s expression became much gentler, "You, ah, better help our Han Family extend the joss stick. With a child, aren''t you a person who has a solid status? Having children means having someone to rely on. "


    "mother is right, my daughter-in-law will definitely work hard in this area." Xi Wu Er replied very obediently.

 C151

    When Xi Wu Er passed by a clinic on the way out, he heard a conversation between a lady and her servant. The maid said worriedly: "Madame, how can you explain to Master that you are pregnant? What should I do? "


    "Sigh, when the time comes, I will find a suitable opportunity to speak to Master." The woman was very disappointed and sighed before following the maidservant. Unconsciously speaking, Xi Wu Er thought about something else. Han Chang Sheng... Xi Wan Rong... She seemed to be able to weave everything into a net!


    When Xi Wu Er returned to his residence, he spread the pain of the medicine Xi Jiu Er gave him into Xi Wan Rong''s censer. Then, he brought Long Er to Xi Wan Rong''s house. Xi Wan Rong and her were already incompatible, upon hearing that Xi Wu Er had come, she shouted angrily: "Chase her out of my house."


    Zhu Er is already dead, and the few servants by her side are her trusted aides, the servant said hesitantly: "It''s not good for Madame, when she gets angry I''m afraid that she will blame you again."


    "Bastard, are you my servant or her servant?" Xi Wan Rong was already oppressed, but the servant''s words made her extremely angry, what if she kicked Xi Wu Er out? Could it be that Xi Wu Er was going to kill her? Humph!


    "Which blind servant girl angered her little sister?" Xi Wu Er smiled and walked in, he gave the servant a meaningful glance and the servant bowed before retreating. Xi Wan Rong said: "Stop, you are not allowed to go anywhere."


    The servant retreated as if she did not hear anything, Xi Wan Rong was so angry he smashed the bed and scolded: "A bunch of bastards." He viciously stared at Xi Wu Er, and said disdainfully: "Xi Wu Er, don''t be happy for too long, I won''t make you happy for too long."


    Xi Wu Er said with an indifferent expression: "Hehe, when the time comes, we''ll just have to rely on our own abilities." Long Er, who was beside him, threw the incense in her hand into the censer when she poured Xi Wu Er a cup of tea.


    When Xi Wan Rong saw that Xi Wu Er''s maidservants were acting so impudently in his own room, he cursed, "I poisoned you, bitch."


    "Madame Rong, are you not afraid of degrading your reputation by calling me a slut?" Xi Wan Rong coldly snorted. "Forget it, I can''t be bothered to look at you either. Long Er, let''s go."


    What does Xi Wu Er mean by coming all the way here? According to the past, she was here to mock him. How could he rest if they didn''t bicker? It didn''t make sense ¡­ Xi Wan Rong could not understand, so he decided not to think about it, and called the servant over.


    "Slut, whose servant are you? If I tell you to leave, you leave. You''re courting death." It could be said that Xi Wan Rong''s heart was completely twisted, and while maintaining her calm on the surface, the two of them secretly revealed their real faces. In order to curry favor with Han Chang Sheng and escape, she used all sorts of methods to curry favor with him. Even if he did not treat her as a human and torture her to death, she would endure it. The more she suppressed herself, the more her personality distorted.


    The servant girl was already used to it, she bit her lips and endured the pain as Xi Wan Rong vented his anger. Sigh, as a servant girl, all of their lives are on the line, who would dare to disobey the pillar? In the end, wasn''t he the one who had to suffer?


    Xi Wan Rong was tired from scolding, so he instructed the servants to find Han Chang Sheng. "Hmph ¡­" Other than Han Chang Sheng torturing him in some way, she doted on him the rest of the time. Xi Wu Er, I will make Han Chang Sheng hate you, reject you, and sow dissension in your relationship. Once you lose your favor, I will see how I will torture her.


    Han Chang Sheng started to say that Xi Wu Er was wrong, that Xi Wu Er was scolding him, and that Xi Wu Er was not good to him at all.


    Han Chang Sheng''s left ear went in and out, while his mouth promised to properly teach Xi Wu Er a lesson ¡­ With that, he grabbed Xi Wan Rong and rolled up the bed. This time, both of them were extremely surprised ¡­ The two of them were completely satisfied!


    Not long after that, Han Chang Sheng thought about it for the second time and found that he had recovered back to how he was before. Xi Wan Rong tasted the sweetness and thought to himself, what''s wrong with this perverted Han Chang Sheng? But seeing that Han Chang Sheng had recovered his good appearance, he felt disdain in his heart, looking down on the useless man. As he thought about it, he couldn''t help but feel itchy in his heart.


    This time, not long after, Xi Wan Rong''s wedding pulse was diagnosed. This was an extremely big matter for the Han Family. The Mrs. Han immediately went to the buddhist hall to chant, and Han Chang Sheng excitedly said: "I''m going to be a father."


    Xi Wan Rong was stunned, how could she be pregnant, she did not plan to stay in the Han Residence for long. This child... Mrs. Han promised on Xi Wu Er''s back: "Child, as long as you give birth to your grandson, I will immediately take you right." Mrs. Han''s attitude had completely changed. It was as if he was a completely different person from before, when his attitude was as cold as ice and as vicious as ice.


    Right? Xi Wan Rong was a little moved. If she was at his level, she could easily beat him up and return the insult she had suffered back to him. Mrs. Han thought that she had agreed. Dunton instructed, "This woman, once she marries someone, she must serve her father at home. The reason why I was harsh with you before was for your own good.


    In the days of Xi Wan Rong, the mother had become more noble, and even Xi Wu Er had been especially respectful to her. This allowed Xi Wan Rong to see a beautiful future. If she gave birth to a son, then she would be the mistress of the Han Family in the future.


    That night, she tossed and turned about on the bed. She was also clear that she had already publicly married Han Chang Sheng, so it would be impossible for her to remarry in the future. Grandfather''s Wang Family? Hehehe, ever since the assassination attempt on Xi Jiu Er came to Wang Bing Gui, Wang Bing Gui had found a scapegoat to avoid this calamity. And thus, she no longer continued to interact with Xi Wan Rong.


    He was counting on the Wang family to back him up? Heh, it was obvious that his imagination was too perfect.


    After a month that resembled a queen, the doctor once again checked Xi Wan Rong''s pulse. He discovered that Xi Wan Rong''s pulse was sometimes strong, sometimes weak, sometimes fast, and sometimes slow, as if it was not a wedding vein. He was the doctor used by the Han Family for many years, and was deeply trusted by the Mrs. Han. At the same time, the doctors knew how important a son was to the Han Family. If he misdiagnosed, he would be facing a dead end, and might even be beaten to death by Han Chang Sheng.


    When Xi Wan Rong saw this, he immediately ordered the servants to withdraw. Lowering his voice, he asked the two of them in a voice that they could both hear. What''s wrong? Is there a problem with my baby? "


    The doctor lowered his eyes, and didn''t dare to speak. This Madame Rong was also a powerful master ¡­


    Xi Wan Rong saw that he did not dare to speak for a long time, and said coldly: "Speak, otherwise you''ll have a good time."


    The doctor wiped away his sweat and said, "Madame Rong, this bloodline doesn''t seem to be pregnant ¡­"


    Xi Wan Rong''s eyes instantly widened. What, she''s not pregnant? How is this possible? The doctor hurriedly said, "Madame Rong''s body is weak, so it''s very difficult to see her pulse clearly ¡­"


    Weak body? Yes, her body was panting heavily after being abused by Han Chang Sheng time and time again. No, no. She was thinking of how to hide this from him now ¡­ He fiercely listened to the doctor and said word by word, "You are not allowed to tell this to a third person. My child is still in his stomach. Do you know?"


    "This ¡­" The doctor was not stupid. The two of them had completely different personalities. The punishment was also different. He would not agree.


    Xi Wan Rong saw through the doctor''s intention and immediately pulled him towards her and threatened, "Don''t worry, I will naturally make arrangements for this matter, it won''t implicate you. If you dare to ruin my plans, I will definitely drag you down with me. "


    Her beautiful face was nowhere to be seen, and she looked extremely ferocious. The doctor hurriedly nodded, "I know, I know. I won''t tell the third person."


    "Alright, you can leave now. You know what to say." Xi Wan Rong let go of the doctor and laid back on the bed dejectedly. Before, she didn''t really like it, but now, without her, she became flustered. No ¡ª she had to be pregnant!


    Heh, Han Chang Sheng can''t do it, how can he let her get pregnant? Unless it was a man... Finding a man was impossible, as it was simply impossible for her to leave the house half a step earlier. "A child doesn''t have anything, right? But we can''t just lose everything for free like this ¡­" Why not take this opportunity to talk to Xi Wu Er?


    "Madame Rong, this grandpa has come." The maidservant reported from outside the door.


    Xi Wan Rong''s heart jumped, he had an idea. With a smile that even he himself felt was disgusting, he said to Han Chang Sheng: "This grandpa is here."


    Han Chang Sheng didn''t have the slightest bit of hostility, he was truly a good man. Seeing that Xi Wan Rong was about to get off the bed, she immediately said: "Now that you are pregnant and your body is heavy, you can lie down peacefully on the bed."


    "Yes." Xi Wan Rong went back to his seat.


    "Are the children better?" Han Chang Sheng asked.


    Xi Wan Rong''s face could not help but turn stiff, and he forced out a smile: "The doctor said the child is very good." Han Chang Sheng did not have her expression. He spoke some words that needed to be taken care of properly, and also instructed the servant not to be sloppy, then stood up and left.


    That day, Xi Wu Er found that Long Er had not been able to find him, and he was a little uneasy in his heart. Not long after, the maidservants outside reported that Long Er was captured by Xi Wan Rong, and the reason was because she harmed Xi Wan Rong!


    Small production? Xi Wu Er''s mind worked quickly, he had a plan, and since Xi Wan Rong wanted to run over himself, she would make a plan in advance. After that, the servants of the Mrs. Han Courtyard aggressively made Xi Wu Er follow her there. It seemed like he had already convicted Xi Wu Er.


    Xi Wu Er could hear the sound of Long Er begging, "Old Madame, Servant did not harm the child in your Madame''s womb. Your Servant was wrongly accused ¡­ Old Madame, you must believe your Servant ¡­ "Sob, sob, sob ¡­"


    Old Madame''s face was as black as coal. Looking at Long Er was equivalent to killing her father, he gritted her teeth and said: "You said that you were innocent? Ah ¡ª the evidence is all on you, and you''re still quibbling? "

 C152

    At this time, Long Er was kneeling in front of the old Madame. Her hair was in a mess and her clothes were in disarray along with a few cracks.


    Xi Wu Er walked over with an ignorant look on his face and asked: "mother, what happened?"


    "You came at the perfect time, your servant girl already caused the child in Madame to disappear, how do you explain this?" Mrs. Han asked angrily, as though Xi Wu Er was behind all of this. She immediately thought that if Madame''s child was gone, the biggest beneficiary would be Xi Wu Er. Coincidentally,''s servant said so, so everything became logical.


    "Madame, Madame, you must believe in Servant! This isn''t done by Servant, Servant did not harm Madame and the child in her womb!" Long Er was afraid! She knew all of Xi Wu Er''s secrets, at that time, if Xi Wu Er did not save her, she would reveal Xi Wu Er and let them have their way.


    Seeing Long Er''s scheming and ridiculing, Xi Wu Er laughed. She wanted to save Long Er, but the reason was because Long Er was her personal servant, and the only person she trusted was Long Er. Furthermore, Long Er had been beaten up for such a long time without being able to expose her, it could be seen that she was still loyal to him.


    Xi Wu Er said indifferently: "Don''t worry, there are some things that even if you didn''t do it yourself, you still wouldn''t be wronged."


    "S-old Madame ¡­" Princess Laifu is here ¡­ " Although this was the time to settle big matters, Princess Laifu was a princess, it was only natural for her to notify him when she came to her doorstep. The maid trembled in fear. The atmosphere in the room was extremely oppressive, and she felt a chill run down her spine.


    "Princess Laifu?" The Mrs. Han finally remembered who the Princess Laifu was. She must be so angry that she forgot about the person, but why did she come? Since she was already here, she couldn''t just kick him out. With a headache, she said, "You should bring him to the main hall. I''ll come later."


    "Yes." maid said.


    "Men, lock this damned girl in the woodshed for me. I will deal with her later." The Old Lady Han gave the order, and without looking at Xi Wu Er, she led them to the hall. The reason why Xi Jiu Er came here was because he coincidentally met the doctor from Han Family. Xi Jiu Er only found out that it was Xi Wan Rong who was a "little prostitute" after asking around.


    Xi Wan Rong''s "Small Birth"? How interesting. How could she be absent from such a lively scene? Thus, he brought Liu Shui and followed him to the Han Residence. Hearing that it was''s servant that did it, Xi Jiu Er''s smile became wider and wider.


    "Princess Laifu." Mrs. Han could already see Xi Jiu Er sitting down to drink her tea from afar. Her indifferent and elegant demeanor was comparable to Xi Wu Er and Xi Wan Rong, leaving them in the dust. She thought that if this kind of girl were to marry into the Han Family, it would not be a problem for her to control his good-for-nothing son. His son needed someone powerful to look after him!


    "Old Lady Han." Xi Jiu Er bowed slightly, and then, Liu Shui placed the gift on the table behind him. When Old Lady Han saw that it was the symbol of a heart-nourishing hall, he was immediately satisfied. The ingredients in heart-nourishing hall were hard to come by, even the cheapest ones required at least a few hundred silver. had bought a lot of them.


    "Such a small gift is not worthy of respect." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Where did the Princess Laifu say that?" Old Lady Han waved her hand and the maidservants behind him received the gifts. Xi Jiu Er then said her next purpose of coming, was to visit her two sisters. Glimmers danced in the eyes of Xi Wu Er, who was standing beside the Old Lady Han.


    "This... "Truth be told ¡­" Mrs. Han told Xi Jiu Er about this matter. From the looks of it, he was planning to throw it to Xi Jiu Er, to the point that if you are not satisfied with it, then don''t blame me for being ruthless.


    "Princess Laifu, you should know that our Han Family is very thin. It took a lot of effort for this to get pregnant and yet ¡­ "It''s actually a small birth. This old one''s heart hurts ¡­" As he spoke, his eyes turned red and he seemed to be really sad. Xi Jiu Er hurriedly consoled him, "Don''t worry Old Lady Han. This matter will definitely be investigated thoroughly."


    "This old body thinks the same." Old Lady Han sighed.


    "I''m going to take a look at Elder Sister Rong." Xi Jiu Er stood up. Old Lady Han was a lot more angry now, and since she was already old, she was a little tired. It was Princess Laifu''s first time here, so she should have accompanied him.


    "mother, if your body isn''t well, why don''t you go back and rest? There is a daughter-in-law here." Xi Wu Er said gently. She had long seen that the Old Lady Han was not as good as she thought, she who was quick to act good would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity.


    "That''s right, since Big Sister Wu''er is here, let''s go back and rest." Xi Jiu Er also laughed.


    "Alright then, I''ll go back first!" Princess Laifu, this old one apologizes ¡­ " Old Lady Han led the servants and left. On the way, Xi Wu Er asked softly: Little Sister Jiu Er, what are you doing here? Xi Jiu Er was a eccentric person, he was afraid that she would mess up his plans.


    "Of course I''m here to watch the show." Xi Jiu Er smiled, her eyes filled with cunning: "Wouldn''t it be a pity not to watch such a big show?"


    Xi Wu Er pursed his lips and did not say anything. The two of them then went into Xi Wan Rong''s courtyard, where Xi Wan Rong was still lying on the bed, crying out Ouch Ouch. When they reached the door, their voices suddenly grew louder, accompanied by pain and weeping: "My pitiful son, you died such a pitiful death, it''s all the fault of mother ¡­ mother didn''t protect you well, allowing you to meet with bad guys and separate us from each other ¡­ "


    "Child... "I can''t protect it any longer ¡­" An old voice slowly spoke from the room.


    "What, the child can''t be saved!" "No, you must do everything in your power to save the child." Han Chang Sheng''s voice was filled with anger, he was so angry that it sounded like a volcano was about to erupt in the next moment. Xi Wu Er, who had experienced Han Chang Sheng''s abnormal violence, couldn''t help but tremble inwardly.


    "Master ¡­" You have to avenge our child ¡­ "Avenge our child ¡­" That pitiful voice was truly pitiful.


    Xi Wu Er was walking at the very front, but the moment he stepped into the room, he ruthlessly scolded Xi Wu Er, "Bitch, you still have the face to appear. It''s all because of you that my son is gone. After saying that, she was about to beat him up. Xi Wu Er was afraid that he would retreat a step and crash into her, causing him to stabilize her body and say slowly: "Han Chang Sheng, you have no proof that I, Big Sister Wu Er, killed her, do you have any evidence?"


    As a noble princess, it was normal for Xi Jiu Er to call her by her name. For a long time, Han Chang Sheng did not hear anyone call his name, and was startled, only to see a slim and elegant lady who had walked out from behind Xi Wu Er. Her eyes were cold, and her gaze was sharp like a sword.


    Young Master Han bitterly retracted his hand and raised his eyebrows, "Does Princess Laifu think that I am making it up out of thin air? Furthermore, if she gave birth to a small child, the biggest beneficiary would be her, so wouldn''t all kinds of indications indicate that she was the culprit? "What a joke!"


    Xi Jiu Er scoffed, "There are some things that cannot be seen on the surface."


    When Xi Wan Rong saw that this jinx, Xi Jiu Er, had also come, his hatred was like water that pounced on his face, almost causing him to suffocate. The hand on the blanket tightly grabbed onto it. With a smile that didn''t quite reach her eyes, she said, "Why is my good little sister here? Even though you have a good relationship with Wu''er, you shouldn''t side with her. Besides... This matter regarding our Han Family has nothing to do with you. " Go where you come from.


    "Hehehe ¡­" I didn''t say that I would interfere, I just came to take a look. I originally brought the pregnancy saving medicine for Elder Sister Rong, I didn''t think that I wouldn''t need it now ¡­ Sigh ¡­ You guys are busy with your own things, don''t worry about me. " Xi Jiu Er leisurely walked to the side and sat down, her'' all of you can''t see me ''expression made Xi Wan Rong''s teeth itch in hatred.


    "Madame, why did you treat the sea like this, why did you frame me and my child? What did my child do wrong for you to treat her like this? I know you hate me, but children are innocent ah, what do you have on me ah ¡­ My child... "My poor child ¡­" Xi Wan Rong cried, she was not sad at all.


    "Don''t cry, don''t cry. You''re a prostitute, how can your body not eat?" Han Chang Sheng immediately comforted her. The one who cried the most after losing her child was him, he had finally managed to get a child to come ¡­ It actually gave birth to a small child ¡­ Suddenly looking at Xi Wu Er, he rushed forward and slapped Xi Wu Er down to the ground.


    "Woo woo ¡­" Xi Wan Rong was secretly amused. Well fought, give me a good beating, give it a good beating. With a glance at Xi Jiu Er, she discovered that Xi Jiu Er was faintly smiling at her, which immediately gave her a bad premonition. Since the little slut was smiling like that, she definitely had a plan, but she had to be careful.


    "Big Sister Wu''Er, are you alright?" Xi Jiu Er anxiously stood up and was about to help Xi Wu Er up, but somehow the censer on the table also grew legs and ran away with him, falling to the ground with a "pa la" sound.


    "I''m fine." Xi Wu Er covered her face and shook her head, that slap, she felt that her ears had released a cry, not knowing if she had heard it or not.


    "Bitch, why did you do this? I don''t care about the grudges you have in the Xi Family, you are already married into the Han Family, you are one of my people, why are you still so ignorant about the rules! You return my child! " The more Han Chang Sheng thought about it, the angrier he got, with a sinister look as if he was going to pay with his life.


    "Backhand!" Han Chang Sheng had already made up his mind to beat Xi Wu Er to death, so it didn''t matter. Once he raised his head, he was stopped by Liu Shui.


    Han Chang Sheng scolded: "You are just a servant and yet you are involved with master''s matters. Today, I will beat you up too."


    Liu Shui simply did not care, thus the two of them started fighting. How could Han Chang Sheng be a match for Liu Shui! After a few moves, he was already at a disadvantage. Han Chang Sheng was so angry that his moves were getting fiercer and fiercer. However, it was a pity that he took out all of his skills and techniques to dispel them. Liu Shui laughed coldly: "No wonder the Young Master Han lost in battle, their skills are inferior to others."


    This sentence meant that if one''s martial arts was inferior to others, they would be defeated. However, if one''s military strength was defeated, they would be weakened, so ¡ª ¡ª You deserved it!

 C153

    Han Chang Sheng''s heart had long been twisted. Hearing that Liu Shui, a mere maid, could already mock him like this, how could he, a great Master, put his face back? See if I beat this little bastard to death today.


    While the fight was going well, Xi Jiu Er ''unintentionally'' saw a white object inside the incense burner. She curiously asked the doctor beside him: "What''s this?"


    The doctor took it over and after smelling it, his face immediately changed. Xi Jiu Er felt that Liu Shui was done playing and shouted: Liu Shui stop, there''s something new here. When Liu Shui stopped, Han Chang Sheng''s attention was also attracted over, only to see that the doctor''s face was unsettled as he looked at the white object, and stuttered, not knowing what to say.


    Han Chang Sheng shouted: "What is this?" Actually, he didn''t care too much about it. The key point was that the doctor''s eyes looked at him with pity, as if he was the most pitiful man in the world.


    Xi Wu Er didn''t know what Xi Jiu Er was trying to do, it was completely out of her control with her previous plans, but she believed that Xi Jiu Er hated Xi Wan Rong, and she would definitely not let him off the hook this time. However, Xi Jiu Er could not help but feel that something was off.


    Xi Wu Er pushed everyone in the room away and said uneasily: "Doctor, there are only the few of us here, you can speak your mind."


    Xi Wan Rong didn''t know what it was either in her heart, but seeing that Xi Wu Er''s face seemed to have been discovered, she was extremely afraid. She couldn''t help but think, could it be that Xi Wu Er had done something to her, discovered some sort of evidence? Thinking this way, she no longer worried. She was just waiting to watch a good show ¡­ But she had already forgotten that this was something that Xi Jiu Er had "discovered".


    It was all a setback for him to gain intelligence. It was really a good thing that Xi Wan Rong did not have any brains at all. Was there anything good with Xi Jiu Er? It was obviously impossible!


    The doctor then replied hesitantly, "Young Master Han, this is the ''Luozi Root''."


    "What is a drop root? If you want to say it, then say it carefully. Don''t intentionally mystify things for me. " Han Chang Sheng frowned and cursed. He was not a scholar to begin with, so he did not want to be involved in this type of writing. If he wanted to come, then he would have to be more direct.


    "As the name implies, this'' Luozi Root ''means that the root of a man''s child will be taken as well ¡­ "A man wouldn''t be able to smell this scent for a long time ¡­" The doctor then carefully looked at Han Chang Sheng, seeing his face turn pale as though he had already thought of what he wanted to say, he said: "Men do not have sons."


    "What!" What Han Chang Sheng thought in his heart and what he heard from the doctor were two entirely different things. His body swayed as he stared emotionlessly at the doctor. This doctor had managed the body of the Old Madame for seven or eight years already.


    "What?" "Quickly take a look and see how this grandpa is doing." When Xi Wu Er heard that this medicine would not let a man have children, she panicked and immediately had her pulse checked by a doctor. The doctor placed his hand on Han Chang Sheng''s pulse, he was extremely serious, with his face extremely ugly.


    Seeing him like this, Han Chang Sheng understood the answer in his heart, but in his heart, he still unwillingly asked again, "How is it, do I still have any hope?"


    "There will never be another child in this life ¡­" When the doctor said this, Han Chang Sheng suffered a huge blow, causing his manly body to sway.


    Xi Wu Er had a very complicated feeling in his heart as he looked deeply at Xi Jiu Er, while Xi Jiu Er was looking at her own cloud show, as if a flower could bloom on her sleeve. She looked at Xi Wan Rong, and regardless of what happened, she had to blame it on Xi Wan Rong, and took the chance to take care of Xi Wan Rong, so she asked the doctor: "How long has it been since I took the medicine ¡­ ¡­"


    The doctor glanced at Xi Jiu Er, causing Xi Wu Er''s heart to skip a beat. This doctor must have something to do with Xi Wu Er. The doctor made some calculations with his fingers, and it was about a month ¡­


    "Isn''t one month or so the time when Elder Sister Rong arrived at the Han Residence?" She didn''t say ''Isn''t this Elder Sister Rong''s pregnancy date?''. Xi Jiu Er turned her head and looked at Xi Wan Rong with a sorrowful expression as she gently sighed. This sigh was more than a thousand words.


    Han Chang Sheng turned her head and stared at Xi Wan Rong, causing her hair to stand on end. She shook her head and screamed: "It''s not me, not me, I didn''t drugged, I don''t know anything, I didn''t do anything." Han Chang Sheng''s appearance seemed to want to tear her into a thousand pieces. She could clearly remember all that Han Chang Sheng did to her in the past, and she had no doubt that Han Chang Sheng would beat her to death.


    "Slut!" Han Chang Sheng''s joints had already turned green and white, the flesh on his face trembled, and threw Xi Wan Rong over with all his might, causing Xi Wan Rong to immediately spit out three teeth.


    "You actually hurt me here! You actually hurt me this much! Before, I was not bad to you, but you actually drugged me to the point I had no descendants! Ah, you vicious bitch!" Both of his eyes were already filled with anger. He grabbed Xi Wan Rong''s hair and made her look at him: "It''s all in vain for me to like you so much and love you so much like this, yet you actually did this!"


    Xi Wan Rong screamed in fear, blood flowing out of his mouth like a big, bloody mouth. She pointed at Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wu Er: "It''s them, they set me up, they don''t care about my affairs at all. This is all a conspiracy."


    "Conspiracy? Hahaha ¡­ I only know that Wu''er desires nothing more than to give me a son. As for the enmity between Xi Jiu Er and our Han Family, if they were to frame you, this is her first time entering the house, how would they frame you? " Of course, Han Chang Sheng did not believe Xi Wan Rong''s bullshit.


    "They''re in cahoots ¡­" Xi Wan Rong was so scared that he started to cry.


    "Elder, elder, let go of me. Even if elder sister did something wrong, she is still your most beloved woman." Xi Wu Er was about to show his generosity at this time. Besides, the good show was yet to come. There would be a moment when he would be angry.


    Xi Wu Er had spent a lot of effort to separate Han Chang Sheng and Xi Wan Rong. On the surface, she seemed to be trying to persuade Xi Wan Rong to make sure that he would be convicted, and that she had done all of this. No matter how foolish Xi Wan Rong was, he could tell what was going on. "I didn''t."


    "Hehehe ¡­" Xi Wan Rong, you slut, not only drugged me, you even carried me on your back to steal my man. Do you want to have a child with your man, and in the future, inherit everything in our Han Family? "Isn''t it?" The flesh on Han Chang Sheng''s face started to tremble again, and the fire in his eyes could even be seen, causing Xi Wan Rong to be so scared that tears were flowing out of his nose.


    "I''m not pregnant. I''m not pregnant at all. I lied to you! The doctor said I was pregnant, but he said I was too weak to see that I was not pregnant at all. I wanted to tell you back then ¡­ " Xi Wan Rong continued, "I''m not pregnant at all, so why would I go steal REN''s children?"


    "Xi Wan Rong, do you think that I, Han Chang Sheng, is so easy to fool? You shouted so loudly just now, and bled so much, that the doctor himself admitted that the child could not be preserved, and now you say that you are not pregnant at all?" Han Chang Sheng roared, she casually grabbed something and threw it towards Xi Wan Rong, who immediately pulled up his blanket and screamed.


    "Big sister, quickly admit your mistake and say that you were only able to do such a thing because you had a nightmare. Tell me quickly!" Xi Wu Er had hardened her heart to get Xi Wan Rong to charge a crime, if she were to admit to this matter, Xi Wan Rong would not be able to live.


    "I didn''t do it. Why should I admit it?" Xi Wan Rong screamed. He would never admit it even if she beat him to death. He couldn''t admit it. He couldn''t admit it. It was Xi Wu Er who harmed her. She and that bitch Xi Jiu Er must have helped as well.


    "It''s you guys, it''s you ¡­" You two will not die peacefully working together. I curse you two to die peacefully. " Xi Wan Rong scolded, his tears flowing uncontrollably. He was afraid, afraid that he would not be able to hold on until Han Chang Sheng killed him. She didn''t want to live like this, didn''t want to ¡­ Wu wu wu ¡­


    "Madame Rong, why are you accusing me and Jiu Er so unjustly?" Xi Wu Er covered his face with his hand.


    "Hey, stop." Just then, Liu Shui suddenly shouted out loudly, shocking the people in the house until they came back to life. Han Chang Sheng looked at him in a daze, and forgot to take care of Xi Wan Rong. Xi Wan Rong was also forced back with tears in her eyes.


    All of Xi Wu Er''s plans had been immediately scattered by this roar, and he was no longer able to find his way to the north anymore ¡­ ) Stunned, she looked at the servant girl that Liu Shui was waiting for, who started trembling before crying, "Servant doesn''t know anything, Servant doesn''t know anything at all ¡­ "Sob, sob ¡­"


    A man''s inner garment fell out from her bosom. Xi Wu Er immediately shouted, "What is going on?" Her mind was kept tight, afraid that Xi Jiu Er would take advantage of the situation and catch her off guard. When she saw that the servant was from Xi Wan Rong''s room, and that the servant was holding onto the undergarment, she immediately thought of something.


    The servant girl gritted her teeth and said, "Servant doesn''t know either. A few days ago, when Servant was cleaning his house, he discovered that there was a man''s shirt inside. At that time, Servant was so scared that he didn''t know what to do. They could only hide in fear that the Madame would kill them if he found out about their secret. Who would have thought that today ¡­ Please don''t kill Servant, Servant is innocent ¡­ "


    Xi Wu Er immediately came up with an idea. "What nonsense are you spouting? The more she tried to cover up the truth, the more Xi Wan Rong felt like he was walking into an abyss. Everyone saw this green hat and treated him as a fool.


    "Nonsense, there''s nothing, there really isn''t ¡­" "AHH ¡­" Xi Wan Rong felt that she was about to go crazy, she felt that the last string in her brain was about to snap. So painful, so painful to the head ¡­ Xi Wan Rong''s head hurt and he fainted!

 C154

    She thought that Xi Wan Rong fainted because he had escaped from something, but in reality, he had created an opportunity for Xi Wu Er and Xi Jiu Er, and she did not have the chance to refute his words for herself. When Old Lady Han heard about Xi Wan Rong''s actions, she was so angry that she scolded loudly. Previously, she still had the chance to hug her grandson.


    "Heavens, why is my life so bitter? How can I meet the ancestors of the Han Family after I die! How can I explain this to them!" Mrs. Han cried miserably, thinking that if she died one day, she would still be scolded to death by her ancestors in the Underworld.


    "It''s all your fault. I told you not to marry that jinx, so you had to listen. No matter what, you have to get her back. What about now?" "It''s good now, your family has been destroyed!" Earlier, she had firmly opposed Xi Wan Rong''s decision to enter Han Family. One look at her was enough to tell that she was not a good person, if she were to enter, wouldn''t she flip the whole house upside down? It was indeed true, look and see. It had only been a short month, and the Han Family''s incense had been extinguished.


    "Someone, throw that evil bitch into the woodshed for me, and don''t give me anything to eat or drink." When Mrs. Han said that, Xi Wan Rong''s face was filled with loathing, and even and Xi Jiu Er started to dislike him. It was said that it was not a family that didn''t belong to the same family, so this pair of sisters of hers definitely weren''t good people either!


    Xi Wu Er was panicking in her heart. If Han Chang Sheng no longer had the ability to bear children, then what was she? Han Chang Sheng vented? She originally had a noble status, but now she was like a maidservant. How was she going to live her life in the future? Although she cured Xi Wan Rong, she ¡­ Xi Wu Er sat obediently, his eyebrows slightly knitted with a hint of worry.


    On the other hand, Xi Jiu Er drank his tea gracefully, ignoring Old Lady Han''s disgusted gaze as if it was air. She only smiled slightly and said: "Old Lady Han''s tea is not bad, Jiu Er likes it a lot."


    Mrs. Han smirked at Xi Jiu Er''s nonchalant attitude and immediately became angry. He asked with the smell of gunpowder: "Princess Laifu, Xi Wan Rong is your sister, she is Xi Family''s Miss. If she does this, you guys should give me an explanation."


    Xi Jiu Er did not understand and asked: "An explanation? "What kind of explanation?"


    Mrs. Han was stunned for a moment, and did not understand what Xi Jiu Er meant. "She drugged my son and made him die without descendants, you should give us, the Han Family, an important explanation in this matter."


    "This matter ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said and nodded her head as if she was'' originally thinking about this matter '': "I''m afraid I have disappointed Old Lady Han. Xi Wan Rong has already been swept out of the room by our Han Family, she is no longer a member of our Xi Family. Furthermore, if it really was the Xi Family who took Xi Wan Rong in as her disciple, why didn''t they come to Xi Family to beg for it, and instead wordlessly marry him off as a concubine? "


    This sentence rendered Mrs. Han speechless. If they had acknowledged that Xi Wan Rong was someone from the Xi Family, then when they f * cking asked to marry Xi Wan Rong, they should have came to the Xi Family to ask for his hand in marriage. And they were married without even a word of greeting. What was this? Since you all are not admitting it, what else can the Xi Family, who drove Xi Wan Rong out, admit?


    Mrs. Han was unhappy in his heart. He snorted heavily and threatened, "Since Xi Family does not wish to interfere, then I will go and report it to the officials."


    "I don''t care, as long as we report it to the officials, the entire world will see the Han Family as a joke." Xi Jiu Er said nonchalantly. Hmm, don''t say that this tea tastes really good, let''s let Liu Xiang see if she can find this tea early.


    Old Lady Han laughed coldly: "Shame? So what, aren''t our Han Family s ashamed enough? " Her son had been hurt so badly by the little bitch from Xi Family. If she didn''t get revenge, how could she be willing?


    "Hehe ¡­" Since the Old Lady Han wants to do it, then do it. " Xi Jiu Er slowly got up. Her goal was to make Xi Wan Rong beg for death in the Han Family anyway, and since she had achieved her goal, there was no need to stay here.


    "I''ll send you to Princess Laifu." Xi Wu Er immediately followed, "Princess Laifu!"


    Xi Jiu Er already knew in his heart what Xi Wu Er was planning to say to him, so she smiled and stood at her original spot, waiting for Xi Wu Er. Xi Wu Er sunk his heart, and impatiently shouted at the maid, "Little Sister Jiu Er, I know you are intelligent, but can you help me ¡­" Just now, when she thought back carefully, she was not an idiot, Xi Jiu Er''s plan was already in Han Family, today Xi Wan Rong''s evidence was clear, the man''s clothes, the doctor ¡­ He must be willing to be in close contact with Xi Jiu Er. Thinking about how Xi Jiu Er had tampered with spies without him noticing in the slightest, a wave of fear rose in Xi Jiu Er''s heart.


    "I don''t understand what elder sister Wu''er means." Xi Jiu Er walked forward and smiled faintly.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, I want to give birth to a child and establish a foothold in Han Family. A voice in Xi Wu Er''s heart told him that it was definitely possible for Xi Jiu Er to accomplish this, it was only seeing that she was willing or not.


    "Children, you did not see that Han Chang Sheng is unable to continue on, how can you have children?" Logically, if Xi Jiu Er said that she was a daughter of a yellow flower, other people would definitely feel embarrassed to say that, but Xi Jiu Er said those words frankly, not faking it in the slightest.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er, I know you have a way, please think of a way ¡­ ¡­" "I''m begging you ¡­" Xi Wu Er pleaded, hoping that Xi Jiu Er would help him. As long as I can give birth to one and half women, she would be one of my meritorious ministers. At that time, wouldn''t Han Family be able to spoil her and send her to the heavens? Even if he had a daughter, he could just find a husband to marry into.


    "Mm ¡­" During this period of time, you have to take good care of Xi Wan Rong. If you take good care of him, I will definitely give you a substantial compensation. Don''t even mention children, I will even bring you two children. " Xi Jiu Er laughed. To outsiders, this smile looked gentle and generous, but Xi Wu Er felt that this laugh was like a ghost, it was extremely scary.


    After sending Xi Jiu Er off, Xi Wu Er felt her back was covered in sweat. When Xi Wu Er went to the Old Lady Han''s place, the Old Lady Han said that she was going to rest. There would be no need for her to rest in peace in the future, in order to not feel annoyed just from looking at her. Xi Wu Er also obediently didn''t say anything, and only retreated.


    Han Chang Sheng sat in the room coldly. Xi Wu Er was afraid of Han Chang Sheng, afraid that he would go crazy and kill her.


    "Master, Princess Laifu said that he would think of a way to cure your leg." Xi Wu Er carefully walked to Han Chang Sheng''s side and sat down. Han Chang Sheng sneered: "Really? Does she even have that ability? "


    "Don''t forget, my little sister Jiu Er is extremely skilled. If she could even invite an old senior like Sun Kongming, then there must be a way to cure this lord''s illness." Xi Wu Er said this to make Han Chang Sheng treat him better. As expected, Han Chang Sheng''s expression immediately changed, and he asked: "Really?"


    "Of course it''s true! Why would I lie to you?" Xi Wu Er said softly: "Little Sister Jiu Er is so angry at Madame. She said that I will teach a lesson and establish a rule for her."


    "I''ll leave that bitch to you from now on." Han Chang Sheng didn''t care about Xi Wan Rong at all. If there was still such a bitch in her heart, Han Chang Sheng would feel that there was something wrong with her brain.


    "Thank you, master. I will definitely teach this Madame a good lesson." Xi Wu Er said.


    "Hmph, as long as this woman doesn''t die, you can do whatever you want with her." It was not wrong that Xi Wan Rong was the woman he loved the most, but this woman made him have no children. She had already crossed his bottom line, and he simply could not tolerate her. Previously, he had protected Xi Wan Rong because he felt that Xi Wan Rong was the woman he loved the most. But now, it wasn''t so, and this woman''s life and death had nothing to do with him.


    As if he had received a pardon, Xi Wu Er lowered his head and revealed the joy and excitement in his eyes: "Yes."


    Xi Wan Rong reckoned that she had woken up and she was now in his possession, allowing him to beat her up and scold her ¡­ Hahaha, what number one beauty? What direct daughter?


    "This is bad ¡­" ''This is bad ¡­ '' The servant stumbled in, his face pale. "Elder, Madame, you should quickly go see Madame Rong, something happened ¡­"


    Xi Wu Er raised her eyebrow, she must not commit suicide, what kind of fun would there be if she committed suicide? He immediately asked: "Quickly tell me, what happened to Madame Rong?"


    "This servant can''t explain it in a few words. Madame, go take a look yourself." The servant was so frightened that his face turned pale as if he had seen a ghost. Xi Wan Rong and the servant became curious: What exactly happened?


    When the two of them arrived at the woodshed, they were filled with curiosity. The old wives guarding outside the woodshed were so frightened that they were trembling with fear. Xi Wan Rong''s screams came from inside the woodshed: "Ah, it''s so itchy, it''s so itchy ¡­"


    Xi Wu Er and Han Chang Sheng moved closer to take a look, only to see a miserable looking Xi Wan Rong cutting a very beautiful and long fingernail and using much of his strength to scratch his face, causing it to glisten with blood. Looking at her, everyone shivered. Han Chang Sheng frowned: "What''s wrong with her?"


    "This old servant doesn''t know, but I thought ¡­" And here I thought ¡­ "The devil is on top ¡­" At first, she didn''t care, she thought it was Xi Wan Rong playing some tricks, but then she felt that something was wrong, and the screams started to sound like he was pinching her neck, and the pain was so intense that it sounded like ghosts screaming. When she looked again, she was stunned.


    Xi Wu Er did not know what had happened to Xi Wan Rong either. The only thing she knew was that Xi Wan Rong only cared about his face the most in his life. Was she crazy to be scratching her face like this?


    I can''t go crazy! Xi Wu Er immediately called for a few strong and strong attendants to knock Xi Wan Rong out, and then call for a doctor. This doctor was naturally not the same doctor as the previous one, and Han Chang Sheng had specially ordered his attendants to look for him.


    The doctor looked carefully at the wound on Xi Wan Rong''s face, smelled it, and said with certainty: "Madame has been poisoned, this poison has already been poisoned for around a year, the time for the poison to be released is here."


    Xi Wu Er was extremely shocked, the first person he thought of was Xi Jiu Er, other than her, there was no one else. She drugged it a year ago? Han Chang Sheng looked at Xi Wu Er''s face and guessed that it was not because of her, then looking at Xi Wan Rong''s face, he felt even more disgusted, this woman, she was truly detestable!

 C155

    When news of Xi Wan Rong''s disfigurement reached Xi Family, Mrs. Han even came knocking to make a ruckus. If Han Family was the one who ended up being killed by Xi Family, then Xi Family would definitely not have it easy.


    Xi Hong Sheng and Old Madame''s hatred towards First Lady and her children became more and more intense. Now, there were even people who said that Xi Wan Feng was a jinx and a bane. Xi Hong Sheng thought back to when he had met her, and he didn''t know when it had started but he was no longer at peace within the manor ¡­


    "I think I can''t just send Wan Feng to the manor and let her go to the Li family!" The Old Madame had always kept Xi Wan Feng in the Li family. If she did not perform well, he would let Xi Wan Feng come back, and if he did not perform well, he would let the Old Madame of the Li family betroth a marriage to her. For him, he would give her some silver.


    Xi Hong Sheng was worrying that Xi Wan Feng would be an eyesore in his residence, since the old Madame had already made arrangements for him to take care of himself, he immediately replied: "mother is right, I will have the old Madame make the arrangements."


    "Go, go." Old Madame had a headache.


    When Xi Hong Sheng left, the old Madame sighed, seeming to be talking to herself yet also asking the mother of joy, "Tell me, how did a good home become like this?"


    "Old Madame doesn''t need to think any further. A child''s grandson will have his own blessings. If Miss Feng falls down by himself, even if we tried to persuade her against it, we wouldn''t be able to do anything about it." mother of joy knew that the old Madame was blaming herself, and immediately comforted her. The old Madame felt much better after hearing this, but in any case, she had tried hard, so who could Xi Wan Feng blame for his own failure?


    When Third Wife heard that Xi Wan Feng was going to be placed in the Li Clan, and that they were going to let her stay in the Li Clan for a period of time, she was immediately overjoyed. Xi Wan Feng was the daughter of the First Lady. As long as Xi Wan Feng was there, it was as if Xi Wan Feng had become a barrier in the First Lady, like a thorn in her heart.


    "Yes, this humble one will go and tell Miss Feng right away." Third Wife smiled slightly. Logically speaking, the greater the power in her hands, the more changes she should have, but she was actually more gentle and docile, making Xi Hong Sheng unable to let go. Immediately, he felt that the Third Wife was a few streets away from him. Why did he blindly see First Lady back then?


    Xi Hong Sheng had already informed the Li Family about this in advance.


    "Miss Feng." Third Wife leisurely walked over with Mother Fang, her elegant and elegant body exuding a noble aura. Xi Wan Feng thought of the mother that he had laid on the bed with a skinny body and a face filled with Evil Qi. An unerasable hatred emerged from his eyes.


    Third Wife pretended not to see it, and said indifferently: "Miss Feng, pack up and set off."


    Xi Wan Feng was stunned and screamed: "Father wants to kick me out?" If he kicked her out, she would be nothing, not even a Miss. Xi Wan Rong''s fate was still fresh in her mind, as the Wang family did not help her in the slightest ¡­


    The Third Wife said indifferently: "Feng, what are you saying. Master ¡­ Old Madame discussed and estimated that the Feng Shui of this courtyard is not right, and decided to let Miss Feng stay in the Li Clan temporarily for a period of time after modifying the courtyard."


    Li family? What Lee family? As long as he didn''t chase them out.


    "Men, hurry up and pack up Miss Feng! Let me choose one of Miss Feng''s personal maidservants. Xia Er ¡ª Hurry up and come see Miss Feng. " Third Wife is planning to have his servant watch her? Xi Wan Feng watched as a delicate and pretty maid walked in front of him to pay his respects. He didn''t know if it was Xi Hong Sheng''s idea or the old Madame''s.


    "Greetings to Miss Feng." Xia Er was handsome, with a steady mind. Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "Stand up."


    The old granny packed up very quickly, after a while, the Third Wife sent someone to bring Xi Wan Feng to the Li family. Looking at the signboard that had the words'' Xi Mansion ''written on it, she told herself that there would be a day when she would come back from the limitless glory. There would be a day!


    "Xi Jiu Er!" She saw Xi Jiu Er''s figure standing at the entrance, smiling at her proudly as if he was the victor. Xi Wan Feng stared at her viciously, and slowly revealed a smile on her face: "Xi Jiu Er, just you wait, I will make you beg for death, and I will pay you back the debt you gave me today."


    "Alright, then Jiu Er will wait for Big Sister Feng. Don''t forget, Big Sister Feng is already sixteen years old this year ¡­ It''s time to get married. " These words caused Xi Wan Feng''s expression to become even more crazed. She was only sixteen years old, if she were to be reared in the Li Family ¡­ Maybe she''ll marry into some nooks and crannies in the country. She doesn''t want it!


    They had agreed to enter the palace. The Mubai being pregnant was their best opportunity, but ¡­ .But it was all too late. Xi Wan Feng lowered the curtain and snorted, then fiercely shouted: "Let''s go."


    The carriage gradually moved forward, Xi Jiu Er looked at the carriage and snorted: "Let''s go." Xi Wan Feng, no matter what move you make, I will take it. If you leave, you only have yourself, your mother is still in my hands. I will let her live a long life, see how one of her children will end up one by one.


    "Which Lee family is it?" Xi Wan Feng frowned and asked, the fire in his heart still had not dispersed.


    The servant Xia Er whispered: "He is a distant relative of the Old Madame, her name is Li Hu Xiu!"


    Li Family... Li Hu Xiu... Li Hu Xiu... This time, Xi Wan Feng remembered! She had also heard from the First Lady that this young lady of the Li Clan wanted to marry Xi Hong Sheng in the past, so Xi Hong Sheng rejected her because he thought she was ugly and had the stench of a fox. After that, this young lady committed suicide. It didn''t matter if they were born a bastard, they would die anyway. At that time, they wouldn''t interact much with Xi Hong Sheng.


    Hearing this, Xi Wan Feng did not think much of the Li Family, and then heard from Xia Er that although the conditions of the Li Family weren''t good, the current Patriarch Li Hu Xiu was a lustful man, the Madame had married many times. With this, Xi Wan Feng facepalmed. There were too many people around, who knows what she would face if she went over.


    On the contrary, when the Li Family and the Li Family heard that Xi Wan Feng was coming over, they started to despise him! At that time, Xi Wan Feng was the direct descendant of a noble family who did not put them in his eyes. It was also because they were first talented girl that he was able to see that they had eyes, noses, and no nose.


    "Hmph, this time, let''s see how we''ll deal with her. Back then, she didn''t give us any face at all." He had only gone to the Xi Family a few times a year, but he still had to see Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong, the two sisters, choking off their anger. Only if they were despicable would they go and humiliate themselves.


    "Father has told us to treat her with respect, or we will be punished." The eldest daughter of the Li family, Li Ling Ruo, said indifferently. She was around fifteen years old and looked very much like her mother.


    "Elder sister, as long as we secretly punish her, who knows!" In the past, when she went to Xi Family, she was often mocked by Xi Wan Rong. Although Xi Wan Feng did not say anything about helping the evil, he still mocked her on the side.


    Hmph, so what if you''re a concubine?! Seeing what kind of life Xi Wan Rong was leading now, seeing that the direct daughter would become the concubinage and the concubinage would become his legal wife, I spit on your shoulder, I''ll let you see our joke as you wish, Xi Wan Feng.


    Li Hua Er pursed her lips. She had only gone to the Xi Mansion once before, and the radiance emitted from Xi Wan Rong''s beautiful face caused even as a woman, to be unable to help herself from exclaiming in admiration at her beauty. Also, Xi Wan Feng, she''s seen her calligraphy before, her paintings are really good ¡­ It was a pity that such a person had ended up like this. She couldn''t help but sigh with emotion.


    When Xi Wan Feng arrived at the Li family estate, it was already midnight. No one came out to greet her, only an old woman brought her to a secluded courtyard. The house was swept and tidy, but the environment was slightly better than a servant girl''s room.


    Xi Wan Feng could not help but mock himself. Xi Wan Feng, oh Xi Wan Feng, I never thought that you would have such a day! All of this was thanks to that little bitch Xi Jiu Er. Just you wait, today''s sacrifice was all for a fatal strike.


    The old granny said her goodbyes. Xi Wan Feng waited for a while and thought that he would be bathed in hot water. Xia Er did not even get to pour water, which made Xi Wan Feng realize his current situation in an instant. It was even worse than he expected.


    "Miss, Servant will rest for you!" Xia Er walked over, who would have thought that she would be ruthlessly slapped by Xi Wan Feng. Xia Er kneeled on the ground with a flustered look on her face, "Madame, Miss, it was Servant''s fault!"


    "Speak, are you the one that Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er, that little bitch, sent to monitor my every move?" She is now isolated and helpless, and beside her, she needs this kind of trustworthy person to help her. Even if Xia Er is someone of the Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er, she must think of a way to make her work for me.


    "No, Servant was arranged by Old Madame. Old Madame was worried that Phoenix was not doing well in the Li family, and was afraid that he would offend the Li family. That''s why he asked Servant to serve him." Xia Er shook her head like a rattle drum, her brows twitched: "Really?"


    "What Servant said is absolutely true. If Servant were to lie, I will definitely not die a good death." Xia Er immediately swore to prove herself.


    "Alright, I believe in you." Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "You have to remember this, you are my servant. In the future, both of us will be prosperous and we will be ruined. Do you know? "


    "Yes, this Servant remembers that this Servant will definitely follow Miss Feng''s instructions." Xia Er immediately replied.


    "Alright, come and help me wash up. I''m afraid I''ll have to busy myself tomorrow." Xi Wan Feng said tiredly, after helping her sleep, he ran to the next room to sleep.


    Xi Wan Rong''s face was much better after using the expensive medicine, and only had faint scratches on it, it would not be obvious if one did not look carefully. At night, she touched her face, thinking of many schemes. In the Li family, she was living under someone else''s roof ¡­ She must get out of this cage.

 C156

    The next morning, Xia Er dressed herself very properly. After cleaning everything up, they realized that the food had not been brought over yet, so they rode the horse carriage over. They were originally hungry and tired, and also did not eat anything last night.


    There was a knock on the door. Xia Er immediately went to open the door as she saw a maid standing at the door. With a box in her hand and a bit of unease in her voice, she said, "Servant has come to deliver breakfast to Miss Xi." She was merely a maid and if the Miss of her house wanted to bully Miss Xi, she would send them off for breakfast two hours later. She was too timid and was afraid that Xi Wan Feng would scold her.


    As a girl, Xia Er knew what was happening when he saw her, so she said: "Give it to me." After thinking about it, she sent this maid away. Xi Wan Feng went over to Wen Rou and said, "Come in."


    Xi Wan Feng sat in the room, but because he did not use the food on his face, his expression was slightly unhappy and he did not have much energy left, so the maid stayed in the corner with an uneasy smile.


    Xia Er opened the box. The dishes inside were normal, but no matter what, Xi Wan Feng was still a Miss of the Xi Family, so the fact that he was the direct descendant couldn''t be changed. Using these dishes to fool people, he really did not place Xi Wan Feng in his eyes.


    Xi Wan Feng knew what was inside the box the moment he saw it, it must not have been a good meal. Otherwise, the little girl wouldn''t have been so nervous, afraid that she would be beaten up. She smiled gently and said, "What are you afraid of? You are just a servant girl. There are some things you can''t count up to, so how can I blame you?"


    The servant girl smiled gratefully and didn''t say anything.


    As Xi Wan Feng ate, he asked the servant: "I''m a new lady, I don''t know about the situation in the house, in a while I''ll be going to pay respects to Mrs. Li, tell me about it."


    The maidservant thought for a moment and said, "Miss Xi, our Li family is usually controlled by Mrs. Li. She has a daughter under her name, which is our Great Miss Li Ling Ruo, then two Madame, and a little section called Li Chun Ran. Finally, Third Wife gave birth to a Miss called Li Hua Er."


    Xi Wan Feng asked a few more questions. He roughly knew that in the three Miss s, Li Ling Ruo the Great Miss was arrogant and conceited, the Second Miss was arrogant and despotic, and the three Miss s were well-behaved and were well-behaved ¡­ Hehe, isn''t it similar to the Xi Family s? The Xi Family was arrogant and proud, Rong Er was arrogant and domineering, Xi Wu Er was obedient and sensible, even Xi Jiu Er would be obedient and obedient when others were around. However ¡­


    The more impossible a person was to guard against, the more vicious they would be. Wasn''t Xi Wu Er and Xi Jiu Er the best examples? Xi Wan Feng thought about his enemy, and his face almost twisted. Xi Jiu Er, just you wait, I won''t let you be complacent for long! No!


    Xi Wan Feng then understood the preferences of each and every Madame s, and he already had a plan in his heart.


    After eating some, Xi Wan Feng let the maid go down, and some of them even made Xia Er flip through her makeup case. Inside, there were her most precious jewelry, allowing Xia Er to pick out six or seven of them. She had no choice but to lower her head when she was on the west side of the eaves.


    Tell Xia Er who the jewelry was for, and let her remember. With that, he went to the Mrs. Li. Xi Wan Feng didn''t have much of an impression of this Mrs. Li, but from what maid An said, he knew that Mrs. Li was someone easy to get along with, and whether or not he would only know after seeing him.


    The little servant girl was still giving directions to her in Mrs. Li''s courtyard. Along the way, Xi Wan Feng attracted a lot of attention, and this was the legendary first talented girl ¡­ He didn''t seem to be much either. He also heard that her talents were stolen from her little sister, but he didn''t know if that was the case.


    Xi Wan Feng followed the servant girl''s directions and arrived at Mrs. Li''s courtyard. She looked at Mrs. Li''s courtyard and saw that it was the best, with a lot of flowers and plants.


    Coincidentally, a servant girl walked out of the curtain, and the servant girl was startled: "This is the Miss that came from Xi Mansion, quickly go in, the Servant will go inform the Madame right away."


    Xi Wan Feng smiled decently: "Thank you."


    "Where did Miss Xi is speaking? This is what Servant should do." After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. Not long later, she came out again and smiled: "Madame asks Miss to come in."


    Xi Wan Feng entered the house and saw that the furnishings inside were meticulous, the items inside were not ordinary either. The Mrs. Li smiled faintly with estrangement: "Miss Xi is here, let''s go and watch the tea."


    Xi Wan Feng bowed to her, and sized Mrs. Li up without leaving a trace. Mrs. Li was around thirty years of age, and had very good maintenance. At the same time she was sizing up Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li was also secretly sizing up Xi Wan Feng. She didn''t interact much with Xi Family, only with Old Madame, because First Lady was a person who was attracted to others and looked down on them from the sidelines.


    Therefore, the longer they stayed in the, the less contact Mrs. Li had with them. Sometimes, the things in the backyard would implicate men, and Li Xueyi did not contact Xi Hong Sheng. Because Master Li went to Xi Hong Sheng for help when he was in a crisis, but Xi Hong Sheng chose to ignore it. He did not do anything, only the Old Madame was willing to help them, so if it wasn''t for Elder Li, Master Li would have broken off all relations with Xi Hong Sheng already.


    And the reason the old Madame did that was to help her son get in touch with others.


    When Mrs. Li received the Old Madame''s letter, he did not know how to react so he hurriedly asked about the matters of the Xi Family, especially the two daughters of the First Lady. Mrs. Li is proud, anyone who has a daughter will have them, see what kind of people Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng are! It was an utter disgrace to his maternal grandma, an embarrassment to the empress dowager.


    The letter also revealed that if there were any suitable people to send to Mrs. Li, he would be able to find a suitable husband for Xi Wan Feng. At that time, the old Madame would pay him two taels of silver. Mrs. Li thought, she did not want to do this, but the old Madame did owe the Li Family and her too, so she had no choice but to give the old Madame face. So ¡ª she agreed, and at the same time felt stifled, and wondered how she was going to gain something for herself.


    "Get up. Recently, my body has not been careless, so please do not take offence to Miss Xi. " The Mrs. Li said indifferently.


    Xi Wan Feng had already heard from the servant that Mrs. Li was in good health, a few days ago he had eaten too many fruits that he liked to eat, and it was the doctor who prescribed the food for him. Xi Wan Feng followed up Mrs. Li''s words and said, "Madame, please call me Feng''er ¡­"


    "Feng''er, why aren''t you telling me this? Since Old Madame has handed you over to me, I can''t let you suffer through it." Mrs. Li said indifferently: "Just treat the Li Family as Xi Family."


    "Yes." Xi Wan Feng could vaguely hear the perfunctory attitude and disgust Mrs. Li had towards him. Of course she knew why the Li Family hated him, she knew the truth behind it clearly. Moreover, many of them were her handiwork. Who would have known that she would fall into such a predicament? If she had known earlier, she would have treated the Li family better.


    "mother ¡­" The curtain was raised and a tall and beautiful woman about 14 or 13 years old walked in. She had an exquisite and adorable appearance and a sweet and innocent smile. This was the daughter of the two Madame s, Li Chun Ran. Because she had grown up in the Mrs. Li, she had become even more intimate with him than she was with her.


    "Ran Er is here." Mrs. Li waved his hand and laughed.


    "mother." Xi Wan Feng looked at her and saw that she was around fifteen years old or so. She was extremely beautiful and magnanimous, very similar to the Mrs. Li, and was a beauty.


    The smile on Mrs. Li''s face became even more gentle, "Lingruo is here."


    Behind Li Ling Ruo, there was a young lady who was around eleven to twelve years old. She was a little skinny and had yet to open her mouth. Presumably, she was the one who gave birth to Li Hua Er. Li Hua Er bowed to Mrs. Li, causing the smile on Mrs. Li''s face to fade, and he nodded without saying a word.


    "Come, let me introduce, this is Miss Xi, Miss Xi must stay in our Li Residence for a period of time, during this period of time, do you know that you must love each other and not insult her, especially Ran''er, you are the most mischievous." Mrs. Li introduced and scolded Li Chun Ran.


    "Got it, mother." Li Chun Ran laughed coquettishly, "This big sis Xi Ran looked extremely close to her, why would she be bullied? mother knew that Ran''er was wrongly accused."


    "You!" Mrs. Li said helplessly.


    Xi Wan Feng had a general idea of what to do. Ever since she had become sensible, she had tried to advise the First Lady, and she knew what the First Lady was planning. The First Lady told Xi Wan Feng that all the management mothers had such thoughts, and the concubinage was the stepping stone for the direct daughter. Unfortunately, Xi Wu Er and Xi Jiu Er''s stones were too slippery, causing her to fall to the ground.


    Li Chun Ran seemed to be really liked by the Mrs. Li, Xi Wan Feng guessed that she would just treat him as a stepping stone for Li Ling Ruo. In order to gain a good reputation, Li Ling Ruo naturally had some things he could not do, but in order to please the mother and daughter of the Mrs. Li, Li Chun Ran would definitely come here as a spearhead ¡­ It was probably because of First Lady and Li Ling Ruo that many things happened on Li Chun Ran''s side.


    Xi Wan Feng turned and looked at Li Hua Er. If it was the past, she would definitely not put this calm and collected girl in her eyes, but today was different. With Xi Wu Er and Xi Jiu Er''s lesson, how could she be stupid enough to think that the concubinage was stupid? Maybe this Li Hua Er was just like that lowly bitch, Xi Jiu Er.


    Seeing Mrs. Li''s smile, she suddenly thought of First Lady, and did not know how she would treat this bitch Xi Jiu Er when she was gone.


    Xi Wan Feng gave Xia Er a meaningful glance and Xia Er took out the greeting gift he prepared for everyone. Xia Er did not take it wrong, Mrs. Li and his three daughters had already received the gift, so with one glance, they could tell that Xi Wan Feng had a precious treasure in his hands.


    "Why are you being so courteous, child? We already said that it''s a family, you don''t even need to give this gift." The old Madame said that but she kept stroking the hairpin Xi Wan Feng had given him. The Li Family couldn''t compare to Xi Family, so how could Mrs. Li compare to First Lady''s wealth?


    Xi Wan Feng laughed: "This is what I want."


    "The bracelet Big Sister Feng gave Ran''er is really pretty." Li Chun Ran laughed, her cute and innocent expression could not hide her emotions. couldn''t help but sigh. If his little sister was so good at hiding her temper, how could she have ended up like this? Even if she and Xi Wan Rong hated each other, their hate for each other, and they sometimes just wanted each other to die, but they were sisters after all.


    "It''s good as long as little sister Ran''Er likes me." Xi Wan Feng smiled.


    They seemed to be in a harmonious atmosphere and everyone was talking and laughing. Mrs. Li was also starting to bombard them.

 C157

    After exiting the Mrs. Li''s courtyard, Li Chun Ran affectionately pulled Xi Wan Feng''s hand and said, "Big Sister Feng, we have a Lotus Pond here that looks great. Let''s go, Ran''Er will show you."


    Li Ling Ruo laughed: "You think it''s a treasure? Maybe I don''t care about that at all.


    "No matter, I want to let Big Sister Feng see it." Li Chun Ran curled her lips and pulled at Xi Wan Feng''s hand: "I just want to show the best to Big Sister Feng right?"


    "I like everything." Xi Wan Feng hurriedly said. She had never thought that she would one day agree with a girl. The Li Residence was smaller than the Xi Mansion, but the latter was not something the Li Family could compare to. Xi Wan Feng followed them to the lotus pond, where the lotus blossomed just right, looking extremely beautiful.


    Li Chun Ran pointed to Lotus and laughed: "Big Sister Feng, look, it''s nice to watch, isn''t it?"


    Xi Wan Feng laughed: "Indeed it''s beautiful." At a glance, one could tell that the Lotus Pond was an ornamental scenery meticulously constructed by the Li Family. Xi Wan Feng saw something moving with his sharp eyes. It seemed to be a snake! The thought of snake Xi Wan Feng''s body gave rise to goosebumps.


    "Big Sister Feng, come over here. Look at that lotus flower, it''s the biggest and prettiest." Li Chun Ran shouted happily, and kept waving at Xi Wan Feng for her to go take a look.


    If it was Xi Wan Rong, she could still endure it. If it was anyone else, she would have probably slapped him a long time ago, but it was a pity that his situation had changed. She could only go over and look at Li Chun Ran who was pointing at that flower: "Yes, it''s very, very beautiful."


    Li Chun Ran chuckled, "Big Sister Feng, Ran''er isn''t lying right?"


    "Yes." Even if she was getting impatient, she still had to agree.


    "Big Sister Feng, I want to pick that lotus, can you help me pick it?" Li Chun Ran held Xi Wan Feng''s hand and started to beg. Hmph, what? She still remembered when she went to Xi Family, when she saw how pitifully Xi Wan Rong played around with her. Now that Xi Wan Feng heard from the mother that there was no longer any chance for her to make a comeback, why couldn''t she take revenge?


    Xi Wan Feng was shocked. What, Li Chun Ran told him to pick the lotus flowers for her?


    "Elder sister ¡­" Big Sister Feng begs you ¡­ " Li Chun Ran pulled Xi Wan Feng''s hand and said coquettishly. Xi Wan Feng hesitated, but then Li Ling Ruo shouted, "Little Sister Ran Er, even if you''re messing around, you have to know what to do!"


    Li Chun Ran looked at Xi Wan Feng with quite a pitiful expression, sniffed at the closest lotus flower and said: "That ¡­ Then can Big Sister Feng help my Ran''er pick this lotus for me? " This lotus was very close to Xi Wan Feng, and he only needed to use his long hands to pick it.


    Xi Wan Feng said: "Alright." Thus, he let Xia Er hold his hand while he carefully went to pick the lotus flowers. Xia Er said worriedly: "Miss, let Servant do it."


    "No need, I can come myself." Xi Wan Feng said indifferently.


    Seeing that he was about to get a lotus flower, Li Chun Ran gave Li Ling Ruo a pleased look and pushed Xia Er away. The edge of the lotus pond was already covered with moss, and with a light push, Xia Er slipped and screamed.


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Wan Feng''s body suddenly leaned forward, and instantly fell into the water. With a "Putong" sound, Xi Wan Feng floated in the lotus pond.


    "Miss." Xia Er was so scared that her face turned white. She did not know how to swim so she could only flop in the water. She could feel the stench of earth in the water, making her sick.


    "What are you all waiting for? Hurry up and save them." Li Ling Ruo''s face changed as he anxiously ordered the servants by his side. The maidservant immediately went to find a long stick ¡­


    Xia Er called out from the shore: "Miss, hold on a little longer."


    "Ah ¡ª" Xi Wan Feng shrieked, "There''s a snake, there''s a snake ¡­"


    This time, Li Ling Ruo and Li Chun Ran''s face changed greatly. Li Hua Er was also worried, who would have thought that there was actually a snake inside? Li Chun Ran only wanted her to smell it in the lotus pond, he never thought that there would be a snake. She was afraid that Xi Wan Feng had something up his sleeve.


    The servant brought out a wooden stick and gave it to Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng grabbed the stick and they all worked together to pull Xi Wan Feng onto the shore. Someone had already reported to the Mrs. Li, the Mrs. Li hurried over to get a doctor, and asked a servant to get familiar with Xi Wan Feng.


    Xi Wan Feng was so scared that he did not know what to do, his body shivering uncontrollably as he followed the servant girl. Mrs. Li stared at Li Chun Ran, and Li Chun Ran lowered his head and said, "mother, Ran Er doesn''t know about snakes on her face, if she knew about snakes inside, she would definitely not have let her go, but she just wanted to play around."


    "Ai, forget it, forget it. Next time, you have to think of something. Don''t be reckless." Mrs. Li said helplessly, but was curious again: "Why is there a snake inside? Could it be Zhenyu? "


    Li Zhenyu was the son of the Mrs. Li and also Li Ling Ruo''s younger brother. He was the eldest son of the Li Family, and was only ten years old. He always liked those weird things, so he had been out with Master Li recently for some errands and would only be back after a few days.


    "Who else but her?" Li Ling Ruo was also extremely frightened, he immediately ordered his men to fish the snake out. The snake was big and long, and one look at it was enough to tell that it had been raised for many years. Thinking of such a big and disgusting thing in the lotus pond, they often went to the lotus pond to play.


    Mrs. Li was also scared, and immediately got someone to kill this beast. In the future, it would only be a matter of time before he crawled out.


    "Alright, let''s go see Xi Wan Feng." The Mrs. Li said indifferently: "Sometimes you have to do battle techniques."


    Xi Wan Feng lied on the bed in a daze. The doctor told him to stop being scared, to rest for a bit. Seeing that Xi Wan Feng had fallen asleep, the Mrs. Li brought a few people with him. He said that Xi Wan Feng would inform Xia Er when he woke up in time.


    Once they left, Xi Wan Feng gradually opened his eyes, his entire body trembling from the lingering fear. He beckoned for Xia Er to come over. Xia Er came over and thought there was something he wanted to ask, but he didn''t expect it to be a slap on the face.


    "Bitch, are you trying to kill me?" Xi Wan Feng shouted in anger.


    Xia Er felt wronged and cried, "Miss, Servant is wronged! Servant is pulling Miss closer, but suddenly Servant feels like someone pushed Servant. Servant ¡­."


    "You mean someone pushed you?" Xi Wan Feng immediately asked: "Who was it? Who was the person standing behind you at that time?"


    Xia Er recalled for a while and said: "If Servant doesn''t remember wrongly, it should be Second Miss."


    Li Chun Ran! Hehe, this is great, Li Chun Ran, I have remembered this debt, when I have time I will repay this debt to you double. Xi Wan Feng would never let her be at ease no matter who it was that hurt her.


    "Go..." Bring me my book from the box. I want to read. " Xi Wan Feng bellowed, his temper violent, "Don''t tell Mrs. Li about me waking up, eat some first."


    "Yes." Xia Er was suspicious, why did she have to study now? She took out a book from the chest. This book was very old, Xia Er didn''t know what the words were.


    On the other hand, Xi Wan Feng held the book in her hand as if it were a treasure. This was the book that she had unintentionally obtained when she went to the Wang family. She rummaged around and finally found it ¡­ Hehe ¡­ Li Chun Ran, just you wait, I will take revenge immediately.


    Otherwise, do you think that I, Xi Wan Feng, am easy to bully? Even if I have to rely on others, don''t even think about harming me. I don''t want to be killed by you. Xi Wan Feng''s mouth revealed a strange smile, causing him to shudder.


    When Xi Wan Feng woke up, it was unknown if he was afraid or not, but he stayed in the courtyard the whole time, reading and studying, occasionally playing with his cosmetics. This made everyone very curious. It wasn''t strange for people to learn how to read and write, but it made people very curious when it came to using rouge and cosmetic powder.


    Today, Master Li sent a letter saying that it was delayed for a period of time and that it would take at least half a month to return. When Master Li left, he said that he would bring back a present for them. Now that he had not come back, they could no longer see his present.


    "Come, let''s go and see what Xi Wan Feng is doing." Li Chun Ran suggested and he was also curious, so Li Hua Er shook his head and said, "My health is not good, so I won''t be going." Li Hua Er was injured when he was giving birth to her, so his body was weak when he was born.


    Li Chun Ran did not mind as he took out his elder sister''s concern for him. Then let''s hurry back to rest. "


    Xi Wan Feng was currently studying rouge according to the method written in the book. This rouge could make a person''s skin snow-white, the more it was used, the better it looked. Xi Wan Feng was fiddling around, Xia Er said that the Li Family Miss was here, she smiled sinisterly, "Is that so? That''s great. " I could just give them a try.


    "Wa ¨C it seems ¨C" Li Chun Ran smelled the fragrance of the cosmetic powder as soon as she entered the room, and immediately fell in love with this smell. Li Ling Ruo had also fallen for it, and seeing that Xi Wan Feng was mixing the rouge, they curiously came over.


    "Big Sister Feng, what are you doing? Conditioning rouge?" Li Chun Ran asked curiously.


    "When I entered the palace, I met a palace maid who had the ability to adjust rouge. He only taught me one or two moves. "After I figured out the way, I helped Wan Rong adjust it!" Xi Wan Feng lied.


    Xi Wan Rong was the prettiest girl in the world, and not a single person who had seen her before wouldn''t praise her beauty. The two Li Clan disciples thought in unison, looking at the rouge that was so alluring that it looked beautiful, and smelled so good, Li Chun Ran could not help but ask, "Big Sister Feng, can you let Ran''Er give it a try?"


    "Wow." Xi Wan Feng laughed. Li Chun Ran, I hope you like the present I gave you.


    Li Chun Ran got the servant to remove the makeup on her face, and then, she smeared Xi Wan Feng''s face. There was actually a huge change, she was getting more and more beautiful. She was already the age of a Engagement. A while ago, Mrs. Li said that he would take her to meet that gongzi, but she heard that that gongzi was handsome and extraordinary, and only learned then ¡­


    "Sister, you should give it a try too." The reason why Li Chun Ran liked Mrs. Li and Li Ling Ruo so much was because Li Chun Ran knew how to look at them, especially the mother and daughter pair, who had eyes that were like a worm in Li Ling Ruo''s stomach. Although Li Ling Ruo gave people a feeling that he could understand the general situation, in reality, his temper was also very bad.

 C158

    "Fine." Li Ling Ruo sat down and tried Xi Wan Feng''s new rouge. He looked at the girl in the mirror in pleasant surprise. He was even more optimistic than the rouge made by the most famous rouge shop here. Looking around, he could not help but touch it. This was a sincere compliment.


    Xi Wan Feng smiled slightly: "If you like it, then I will make more for you." There was no woman who didn''t like beauty. Xi Wan Feng''s smile was so sweet.


    "Big Sister Feng, you are really great." Li Chun Ran pulled Xi Wan Feng''s hand and said gratefully.


    "Your skin color is different, I''ll make a different color for you." Xi Wan Feng laughed.


    "Sure."


    "Then I''ll be troubling you."


    The two Li sisters floated away, while Xi Wan Feng stared at their backs and revealed a meaningful smile. Xia Er''s body trembled, he suddenly turned and stared at her: "What are you trembling for?"


    "Miss, Servant ¡­"


    "This is none of your business, get out." Xi Wan Feng said impatiently.


    "Yes."


    When Li Ling Ruo and Yue Yang arrived at the courtyard of the Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li was talking to his mother who was beside him. "Where did you buy rouge? It looks really pretty."


    "mother, you didn''t know that this was obtained from Xi Wan Feng, but this Xi Wan Feng has the ability to mix rouge. I heard that she learnt it in the palace." Li Chun Ran laughed.


    Mrs. Li was startled, "Is that so?" However, he was puzzled in his heart, why did he start getting rouge all of a sudden?


    "mother, did you see that?" Li Chun Ran asked.


    Mrs. Li sincerely said: "Very good!"


    "mother, once I get hold of the rouge and apply it to my hands, my father will definitely be unable to return home." Li Chun Ran laughed, causing Mrs. Li''s face to turn red: "Don''t speak nonsense."


    "Your daughter is right, mother is a beauty ¡­"


    A burst of joyful laughter came out from the house, then looking at Xi Wan Feng who was developing the rouge, the viciousness in her eyes was obvious. Maybe, he could think of a way to give this to Xi Jiu Er ¡­ She knew that Xi Jiu Er was very skilled, and even after poisoning her for so many years, he still hadn''t shown any signs of relapsing. Had she been cured that time when she went to find Sun Kongming?


    That night, Li Chun Ran came over to watch the show again, and did not mention anything about Xi Wan Feng falling into the lotus pond. She said: "Big Sister Feng, quickly do it, not long later older sister wants the Engagement, you need to dress well."


    Engagement? Xi Wan Feng asked without any hesitation, "Ah, Engagement, you can''t be careless when it''s such an important matter. Tell me who the salary is, and sometimes you can make rouge based on the young master''s character.


    Li Chun Ran was startled: "Is that so?"


    "Yeah." Xi Wan Feng smiled blandly: "I''ve already heard a lot of masters talking about it. Although men don''t love rouge, but women who love rouge, if women choose the right rouge, it would fit perfectly into a man''s heart."


    Li Chun Ran secretly remembered it in his heart, and slowly said: "I heard from mother that you are a young master with a belly full of learning."


    "With Great Miss Li''s looks, it''s more than enough to enter the palace and marry a duke or general. Those Miss s who were born noble may not be as beautiful as Great Miss Li. " Xi Wan Feng said casually, then revealed a regretful expression. Li Chun Ran was shocked. To tell the truth, although she looked to please Li Ling Ruo and Mrs. Li, in her heart she hoped that they would die one day. She hoped that they would live a worse life than her. How could she hope for Li Ling Ruo to marry well?


    Li Chun Ran pursed his lips, then said: "Second Miss is also extremely good. Li Chun Ran''s face was filled with innocence and innocence that could even move a man.


    Li Chun Ran''s heart moved, and he said in pleasant surprise: "Is what Big Sister Feng said true?"


    Xi Wan Feng smiled slightly: "Of course it''s true. I have seen a lot of those noble Miss s, and they might not look too good, but their origins are a little better. Although we can''t be sure of their origins, their fates are in our own hands. If you have the chance, you will definitely fly onto a branch and become a phoenix. "


    These words unwittingly caused Li Chun Ran''s heart to jump wildly. She just wanted to have this chance, become a phoenix, and not have to rely on the Mrs. Li and his daughter anymore. Despite their outer appearances, their hearts were dirtier than anyone else''s. She could do all sorts of useless things, but she had no choice but to do it.


    As a result, she had become extremely famous, leaving Li Ling Ruo with the impression of a virtuous and magnanimous elder sister who cared deeply about her little sister. Thinking about how he had been through all these years, his tears started to flow uncontrollably. Seeing that she was moved, Xi Wan Feng became even more pleased. She had to walk out of the Li Residence, walk out in order to deal with Xi Jiu Er, and walk out in order to obtain what he wanted.


    And Li Chun Ran might even be a good opportunity for her. As long as Li Chun Ran was used by her, then everything would be natural to her. The Li family, she will not stay for long, once I leave, Li Chun Ran, your death date will come. She would never forget how she struggled in the lotus pond or how she was scared out of her wits. All of this was thanks to Li Chun Ran.


    Li Chun Ran had a plan in his mind, and then he absent-mindedly left.


    Xi Wan Feng sneered, and allowed Xia Er to bring him to walk around, to get to know the Li Residence. Xi Wan Feng walked to a courtyard. The courtyard was quiet, and it was not far away, but at least it was not good. Xi Wan Feng walked over and saw a woman sitting in the courtyard. Li Chun Ran was very similar, she was probably Li Chun Ran''s mother, the Li Residence''s Second Madame.


    Xi Wan Feng thought in his heart, then turned around and went back. A plan suddenly popped up in his mind, and he waited for the right time to prepare. Three days later, Xi Wan Feng finally handed over the finished rouge to Li Ling Ruo and the others. Her goal was clear, it was to curry favor with the Mrs. Li, Li Ling Ruo was still Li Chun Ran, there was simply no rouge for Li Hua Er.


    She didn''t plan on staying in the Li Residence for long, so where would she have the spare time to do meaningless things? Therefore, her flattery was very popular with Mrs. Li.


    Mrs. Li put on her makeup again. Indeed, she was much younger. old mother who was serving her immediately said: "Madame, look at her, she''s really pretty, really very pretty."


    After a while, Li Ling Ruo and Li Chun Ran also came out. It had to be said that this rouge made one''s usual beauty even more beautiful. However, Xi Wan Feng was completely silent when he saw their joyous expressions. Be happy, be proud, and wait, and you will suffer.


    Li Ling Ruo wanted to go to the Engagement, with these swallows, it was truly like adding wings to a tiger to her. He brought the servant girl with him to Mrs. Li''s temple early in the morning, planning to get some incense and see the right thing to do. Li Chun Ran wanted to follow her, but the Mrs. Li wouldn''t let him. However, after thinking about it, maybe it made Li Chun Ran feel weak, and made him understand the general situation of his daughter, making him like her even more.


    Therefore, Mrs. Li had almost left the house in the early morning. Halfway there, she also ordered her servants to go back and deliver a message to Li Chun Ran, telling her to pack up and ride on another carriage as well.


    Li Chun Ran was overjoyed. Only when a woman was out of the door would he have a better choice. Don''t look at how Li Chun Ran seemed to be well-liked by the Mrs. Li in the Li Family. Only she knew what important occasions the Mrs. Li had, and she would never bring her there. In the past, Li Chun Ran would never have thought of going out, but her heart was already restless due to Xi Wan Feng, so she climbed up the branch to be a phoenix.


    Li Chun Ran tidied her up beautifully. The servant girl then said a few words: "Only when Miss is really beautiful will she be satisfied."


    Seeing Li Chun Ran leave happily, Xi Wan Feng''s smile turned into a sneer. As long as Li Chun Ran suffered at First Lady and the First Lady detested her, without any value in using her, Li Chun Ran would completely lean towards himself. Xia Er, let''s go out and take a look. "


    Arriving at the small courtyard of the mother again, the woman smiled and said, "Come in, Miss Xi."


    "Then I''ll be troubling you." Xi Wan Feng bowed, and then displayed the appearance of a Miss from the capital. The woman invited her to sit down, and the two of them chatted for a while. Xi Wan Feng was surprised to find that her conversation was not ordinary, it was not like a girl who just walked out of a small house. Xi Wan Feng wanted to ask around, but found out that the woman did not seem to be willing to talk much, so she decided to leave.


    Four hours later, Mrs. Li returned with Li Ling Ruo and Li Chun Ran. The three of them had ugly expressions on their faces ¡­ Xi Wan Feng smiled from afar as he watched. This result was already within her expectations. With Li Ling Ruo''s beautiful dressing and the Mrs. Li''s mother''s beauty, they would definitely have an objection. Seeing the unsatisfied look on Mrs. Li''s face, he reckoned that this blind date would definitely not be satisfactory.


    "Second Miss, what''s wrong?" Xi Wan Feng walked over and intentionally asked in a friendly manner.


    Li Chun Ran bit her lips in anger: "Nothing, nothing happened." Then he left in a hurry. After a while, she came to Xi Wan Feng again, "Big Sister Feng, do you think I am better than big sister?"


    "Naturally." Xi Wan Feng said with absolute certainty.


    Only then did Li Chun Ran recover a bit, and she softly said: "Today, big sister, Engagement, that young master said I looked good, big sister is not happy ¡­" In fact, this was not the only thing that happened. In the past, her roles were all to complement Li Ling Ruo, but this time she did nothing. He was just a quiet girl, and the young master had praised her beauty, saying that she was gentle and calm, and from his words, it seemed like he was doing it on purpose. She was happy that her beauty was not inferior to Li Ling Ruo''s.


    It was a pity that he was a concubinage, if only he was a direct descendant of a Miss! Thinking this, Li Chun Ran began to hate Li Ling Ruo again.


    "This slut ¡­" Did you eat the wrong medicine today? " When the Mrs. Li''s mother and daughter returned, Li Ling Ruo''s face immediately changed out of its camouflage and started to contort.


    "What''s there to be angry about? It''s unavoidable if you get mad." The Mrs. Li had a deeper understanding of the situation than Li Ling Ruo, so he would never get angry, so there was no use in getting angry.

 C159

    "mother ¡­" Li Ling Ruo shouted unwillingly. Li Chun Ran was like a dog, this dog had been loyal for many years and suddenly she was going to bite someone.


    Mrs. Li frowned: "Don''t worry, I have an idea on this matter."


    The matchmaker for this meeting, who was also the person who brought the two families together, was a Madame who got along relatively well. After she laughed and glanced at the people in the room, Mrs. Li ordered everyone to leave, followed by Li Ling Ruo.


    "Look ¡­" The Mrs. Li spoke up.


    "I say, Mrs. Li, why did you let a small concubinage follow you today? What interest does he have towards the Great Miss? He has developed feelings for the concubinage. "I see that it is my intention ¡­" The man did not finish, but the meaning was already very clear, it was that the other did not take a fancy to Li Ling Ruo, but instead Li Chun Ran.


    The old face of Madame stiffened, and she snorted coldly: "Alright, that''s all I can do. If I were to ask for the concubinage, that is not what I will do."


    Mrs. Li immediately had a plan in his heart. He told the Madame to leave and then told her what Li Ling Ruo had told her.


    "What?" You actually have your eyes on that damn girl? " Li Ling Ruo felt that he had been humiliated. She, a dignified direct daughter, had actually lost to a bastard, and this person had never taken it to heart!


    "What is your name? Do you want everyone to hear it?" Mrs. Li was unhappy in his heart, and said: "Anyways, she is still just concubinage, whether she is dead or alive is in my hands, mother has a way to deal with her, you just need to do it yourself, and don''t reveal anything, ok?"


    Li Ling Ruo nodded his head: "mother, daughter understands."


    "You can leave now." Mrs. Li supported his forehead, and as soon as he left, they began their preparations. She was only giving Li Chun Ran a small lesson today, letting her know that she was just a dog. If she was happy, she would give Li Chun Ran a hard time.


    Xi Wan Feng went to Li Chun Ran''s courtyard to fix his makeup. At this time, a servant girl from the Mrs. Li Courtyard came over and said: "Second Miss, this is the soup for summer that Madame has brewed. I''ll let you drink it."


    Li Chun Ran closed his eyes and casually said: "I got it, you want to leave it here, when I finish my work I''ll drink it."


    The servant stood there without moving, as though she wanted to see Li Chun Ran drink it himself. Li Chun Ran didn''t know what was going on, but he had some doubts. It was just an antisummer soup, why did he have to watch and drink it? Could it be that there was something in the soup that Li Chun Ran needed to drink?


    Xi Wan Feng''s movements slowed down, the servant was waiting, she could not wait any longer, she wanted to go to the latrine. So he sneaked out to a latrine before he was done. As soon as she left, Xi Wan Feng kept writing: "Alright, Second Miss, do you still like it?"


    Li Chun Ran opened her eyes to take a look, "Wa, Big Sister Feng''s rouge looks really good, Ran''er really likes it." After looking left and right with delight, Xi Wan Feng packed his things without leaving a trace. He then looked at the bowl of Heatwave Soup, which had a faint unusual taste ¡­ Xi Wan Feng gave an enigmatic smile.


    After Xi Wan Feng bid his farewell to Li Chun Ran, he went to find the Second Madame. Because this road was a path that had to be taken by the Second Madame, meeting the Second Madame was nothing!


    When he brushed past the two Madame s, Xi Wan Feng whispered a few words into their ears. The two Madame s trembled as if everything happened, but they nodded to each other as a form of greeting.


    At night ¨C everything seemed to be going smoothly. Xi Wan Feng did not want to miss out on the liveliness, so she brought the new research and development to Mrs. Li, who looked disdainfully at her as she fiddled with her rouge, the grand first talented girl actually ended up acting like a beautiful woman, truly shameless.


    "Madame!" A maidservant stumbled in, his face filled with shock. First Lady''s eyes lit up. He knew that he had succeeded and pretended not to understand, "What''s wrong? What''s wrong with being so flustered? People who don''t know anything would think that our Li Family doesn''t have a home tutor."


    "Servant is really difficult to talk about ¡­ If Madame wants to know, then follow me. " The maidservant said in panic. If it was in the past, Mrs. Li would have already scolded her. There was no way for her to make a scene today, she could only personally make a trip.


    "Fine, I''ll go with you, hmph!" Mrs. Li pulled down her face and followed the servant girl. At the same time, she also called Xi Wan Feng over: "Miss Xi, come with me."


    "Alright!" Xi Wan Feng laughed. She was just in time to watch a good show.


    As a result, the group all went to Li Chun Ran''s room, and coincidentally ''met'' Li Ling Ruo. She asked blankly: "mother, where are you going? Looking for ¡ª for my second sister? "


    "I don''t know what happened either. We''ll know when we go and take a look." The Mrs. Li said indifferently. Li Ling Ruo anxiously asked the servant: "Did something happen?"


    How could the servant know the plan of the Mrs. Li? She shook her head and replied, "Who knows." It sounded like he was gloating.


    The Li Residence was not like the Xi Mansion, there were not many servants around, only four or five servants serving in the courtyard. The Mrs. Li followed the servant all the way to Li Chun Ran''s house, and upon hearing the burst of voices that came from inside, Li Ling Ruo''s face immediately flushed red, while her servant scolded: "You truly do not know shame, Second Miss."


    The other girls that did not exit the pavilion were embarrassed, Xi Wan Feng also turned his face away.


    "Servant never thought that Second Miss was this kind of person."


    "That''s not it... "Aiya, this is so embarrassing ¡­"


    "This time, I''m probably going to die from embarrassment ¡­"


    Mrs. Li''s face darkened. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot of provocation. Li Ling Ruo hurried over to comfort her: "mother, don''t be angry. Second Sister was muddle-headed, just muddle-headed."


    Mrs. Li''s face was extremely ugly. Hearing the soft and graceful voice of the woman inside, he became somewhat suspicious. This voice doesn''t seem to belong to Li Chun Ran? Then, he felt relieved. It was normal for the girl to have abnormal voices because of that.


    "Go, you two go stop the two of you ¡­" The Mrs. Li was trembling with rage, the servants behind them immediately rushed into Li Chun Ran''s room! The two people in the room were engaged in an intense battle. Suddenly, they were disturbed and the two of them quickly separated.


    "Ahh!" The man screamed miserably as the servants mercilessly beat him up. Mrs. Li bringing people in was deliberately not giving Li Chun Ran face. If there was really such a thing as giving Li Chun Ran face, why would she bring so many people in?


    The girl Guo Guo was lying on the ground with his hair in a mess. His body was covered with scars ¡­ Fortunately, there was an old woman who covered her face in her dress in time. Li Ling Ruo''s face was red and filled with pain: "Second sister, you, how did you do such a thing, it must be this shameless lecher, mother ¡­"


    The girl''s body stiffened and she muttered: "Madame ¡­ Yes... is the Servant... "


    Mrs. Li''s face changed. What? Not Li Chun Ran? The servant immediately lifted the hair in front of her forehead. Seeing that it was her servant, and not Li Chun Ran, her face immediately turned ugly. Even if she was a fool, she knew that she had been tricked.


    Who? Who was plotting against her? Mrs. Li suddenly turned his head and stared at the people behind him, and in the end, his gaze fell on the similarly dazed Xi Wan Feng, could it be him? This jinx never had a good thing when it came.


    "It''s really great that she isn''t my second sister. It''s all for nothing that I''m worried about her." Li Ling Ruo slowly said: "But, where did second sister go?"


    "Second Miss is in my courtyard." The Second Madame''s voice suddenly came out, and everyone looked at her. The Second Madame said calmly: "I was looking for someone just now, Second Miss, since she found out that Second Miss''s body isn''t well, let her temporarily rest in my room!"


    Mrs. Li believed her flawless explanation, but she forced a smile: "Since that''s the case, then that''s great, Second Sister had luckily escaped from this calamity. "Men, come and beat this lecher to death. You actually dared to set your sights on our Li Family''s Miss. This is simply unforgivable."


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" The man''s nose and mouth had already been covered by someone, so he could only let out a "wuwuwuwu" sound. First Lady was afraid that the man would reveal the truth, hence she kept her mouth shut.


    The man was dragged out of the courtyard and beaten to death. First Lady scolded: "Unlucky." Then, he urged the two Madame s to take good care of Li Chun Ran before he left.


    "mother... What will you do about this matter tonight? " Li Ling Ruo frowned: "Daughters always feel weird."


    "How could the two Madame s not have any flaws? I can''t tell there''s anything fishy about this matter, maybe it really is that girl''s good fate." Mrs. Li said lightly: "Alright, you can go back and rest. Even if she managed to escape, I think the Second Madame is not an idiot. After understanding most of it, let''s see how she will go against me. "


    "mother is right." Li Ling Ruo then brought the servant back.


    Li Chun Ran heard that someone was doing a dirty thing in his own house, he immediately ordered people to clean up the house, both inside and out, then he stayed in the house. On this day, the Second Madame asked Xi Wan Feng in the name of asking him to do the same: "Miss Xi, I can''t thank you enough for helping my daughter. I wonder what Miss Xi wants from me?"


    "A chance to leave the mansion!" Xi Wan Feng said.


    "A chance to leave the residence?" The two Madame s nodded: "Alright, as long as Miss Xi wants to leave the house, you can tell me at any time. I''ll make the arrangements."


    With the promise of the second Madame, Xi Wan Feng felt that he had eaten a huge burden. He nodded and said, "Alright, then I''ll be troubling the second Madame."


    With the Second Madame gone, Xi Wan Feng now had hope. She needed to wait for an opportunity, an opportunity to approach the Prince Xian! Xi Wan Rong''s medicine was successful. That medicine was an amnesia pill, she used it as a test. At this time, Prince Xian should have already lost his memories ¡­ Then, after he eats the food he concocts, he will fall madly in love with him.


    There was no hope of entering the palace, and marrying a Prince Xian was not bad either!

 C160

    Xi Jiu Er swept his eyes across the crowd, then his eyes suddenly lit up. She saw that there was a girl who looked extremely similar to First Lady, just that she did not have as noble an aura as First Lady. Xi Jiu Er was surprised that there was such a similar person in the world, and immediately ordered Liu Shui to bring this woman to see her.


    Liu Shui nodded: "Yes."


    Xi Jiu Er''s carriage stopped at heart-nourishing hall''s backyard. ex-sister-in-law was still busy with business, she drank tea and ate her pastries as she waited for Liu Shui. In the time it took to make a cup of tea, Liu Shui brought a beggar woman over. The woman trembled in fear as she asked anxiously, "S-Miss, w-what are you doing ¡­"


    "Are you a beggar?" Xi Jiu Er looked her up and down. Although she was with a beggar, she knew that she was not a beggar. Just based on his clothes, even though they were filthy, they were still good materials to be used, and those two hands ¡­ It wasn''t the hands of a beggar at all. There were many dirty things on it, but the exposed skin was white and tender. It wasn''t the hands of someone who had been begging all year round.


    "Yes, I ¡­ I am a beggar." the woman stammered.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Shui and Liu Shui immediately kicked him and scolded him, "Answer me honestly." The kick was not light, and the woman gasped when she heard it. Only then did she unwillingly say, "I escaped. My husband is a gambler. He wanted to sell me out after losing all his family assets!" Luckily, I was able to escape so quickly... I, I thought you guys were the ones he sent to capture me ¡­ "I, I''m scared ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er waited for her to finish crying before saying: "Don''t worry, I won''t do anything to you. On the contrary, I will even let you enjoy a good life and let you live a decent life."


    The woman did not understand her meaning for a moment. Xi Jiu Er said lightly: "You are very similar to my mother. I want you to replace my mother and live well in my family ¡­"


    "Huh?" The woman still did not understand, and Xi Jiu Er continued: "In short, whatever I say, you just have to do, if you dare to go against my words, then I will make you suffer."


    "Yes, yes, yes ¡­" The lady was scared stiff by Xi Jiu Er''s aura and quickly nodded her head.


    Xi Jiu Er asked Liu Xiang to help her pack up a bit before she left via the Xi Mansion''s back door. The woman lowered her head and looked around. To her, it could be described as magnificent. She could only sigh at her family''s wealth! She didn''t know what Miss wanted him to do, but why would she do something so shameful? Killing and arson? Thinking about women scared me again.


    Liu Xiang placed her in Xi Jiu Er''s room, and Liu Shui went to look for Third Wife. When Third Wife came over, she saw a woman sitting in front of Xi Jiu Er, and after looking at her carefully, she blurted out: "First Lady? No, you are not First Lady. " She and First Lady had fought for more than 10 years. Although this woman looked very similar to First Lady, she was not one.


    When the lady saw a beautiful lady calling her ''First Lady'', she was startled. Could it be that she looked very similar to this First Lady? behind him looked as if he had seen a ghost.


    Xi Jiu Er put down the book and smiled, "Third Wife, are you similar to First Lady? Even you almost recognized the wrong person."


    Third Wife did not know what kind of medicine Xi Jiu Er bought from the gourd, and nodded her head: "It''s extremely similar, I almost admitted my wrongs, where did you find her?"


    After Xi Jiu Er explained the whole matter, she pointed at the woman and said, "From now on, she is the Palace''s First Lady!"


    Third Wife frowned, she had gone through so much trouble to defeat First Lady, why is there another First Lady here? Xi Jiu Er seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and abated slightly: "Third Wife, you must not forget that the Wang Family is still here, Xi Wan Feng is still here ¡­." The meaning could not be clearer. If he wanted to do it, he would have to do it. Cutting the grass would not remove the roots, and a new spring breeze would come.


    Third Wife more or less understood what Xi Jiu Er meant and asked, "Princess, do you mean ¡­"


    "There are some things we can''t do, but she can. First Lady doesn''t listen to us, but this First Lady can! "Look, it''s a lot of trouble." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Cold air emerged from the bottom of Third Wife''s feet. Xi Jiu Er actually dared to think of this method, this girl was not simple, she was not simple at all. She calmed her heart and slowly said, "Since Princess has already had a thought, then ¡­ Did he have an excuse to speak to the outside world? Master and First Lady have slept on the same boat for many years ¡­ "


    "Hehe, now do you think Xi Hong Sheng still remembers this woman?" Xi Jiu Er sneered.


    The Third Wife was silent.


    A woman''s originally happy mood had been completely destroyed. She could hear that this First Lady was not someone to be pampered ¡­ Twisting the handkerchief in his hand, he felt somewhat uneasy.


    In the evening, Xi Jiu Er brought her men to First Lady''s courtyard. In order to gain fame, Third Wife had arranged for many people to serve him, and the person who would be serving him in person was no longer Wang Ma.


    "Princess ¡­" Xi Jiu Er waved for them to leave the room. "All of you can leave, I want to speak with the mother, you are not allowed to come without my permission."


    After everyone left, Xi Jiu Er slowly walked to the bedside. The lady dressed as a servant told her instinctively that the woman on the bed was First Lady! Curiosity drove her to carefully take a look, and she immediately turned pale with fright. The woman on the bed was almost exactly the same as her ¡­ She touched her face in shock.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at First Lady coldly and ordered Liu Shui: "Carry him out for me."


    Without a sound, he carried the skinny First Lady on his shoulder and left the window. She knew what she was going to do next. Xi Jiu Er wanted her to instruct him.


    "Starting from tomorrow, ''First Lady'' will slowly wake up and it is very unfortunate that ''First Lady'' is suffering from excessive grief and amnesia ¡­ I don''t remember anything... Do you know? " Xi Jiu Er stared at the lady, meaning that you understand what I mean?


    "Understood ¡­" The woman nodded her head like a chicken pecking rice. It was not good for her to eat and wear since she had run the whole way, and she was also extremely thin, just that she was slightly better than First Lady. She was secretly amazed at how great this princess'' plans were. She had lost her memories ¡­ If he lost his memory, he wouldn''t be able to remember anything. That''s a good excuse.


    "Remember what I said, as long as you obediently listen to my words, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory." Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "On the other hand, if you want to die and not listen to me, I''ll make it so that you can''t beg for death."


    "Rest assured Princess, I will definitely follow Princess''s instructions. Princess, if I am to head east, I will definitely not head west." the woman said quickly.


    "Alright, Liu Xiang, find her a set of First Lady clothes and change into them." Xi Jiu Er instructed. Not long after, the familiar First Lady appeared again, with a different temperament to him.


    "You lie in bed."


    The lady then crawled up and covered herself up with the blanket. Xi Jiu Er suddenly asked: "What''s your name?"


    "My name is Chun Hua."


    "Chun Hua, in the future, you must forget your real name and not forget who you are. You only need to remember that you lost your memories.


    "I heard it." Chun Hua nodded, and began acting on the bed. She lied to Xi Jiu Er, how could she be a legal wife or a Madame? She was actually a woman who was raised by a man, and escaped the moment her legal wife found out. Who would have thought that the man would almost sell her out? She was so scared that she forgot everything and ran away jubilantly.


    She was used to living a good life, and she didn''t have any skill, so she was afraid of being tricked by a man. In the end, she had no choice but to beg for help. In order to prevent herself from encountering those men who were plotting against her, she deliberately made herself look bad ¡­ Their life passed just like that, but they did not expect to meet Xi Jiu Er.


    No matter what, as long as there was food and drink, she was willing to do anything.


    "Men, First Lady is awake ¡­" Xi Jiu Er shouted, the servant outside the door came in, and realised ''First Lady'' had woken up slowly, and asked with a blank look on his face: "Where, where is this place?"


    "mother, you, what''s wrong?" Xi Jiu Er asked softly, turning her head to instruct him to look for a doctor.


    "I... "You, who are you?" First Lady asked again with a blank expression.


    "I am Xi Jiu Er, your daughter ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said softly, "mother, did you lose your memories?"


    "I-I can''t remember anything." Chun Hua''s heart thumped. This princess is actually ''her'' daughter, then this daughter''s heart can cure the viciousness of others. Just thinking about it sent shivers down her spine!


    "mother, you''ve finally woken up. Even if it''s a loss of memories, it''s nothing. Someone, go report to the old Madame, Master and the others that First Lady has woken up. But ¡ª she seems to have lost her memory! "


    When the old Madame heard that she had been poisoned, and caused the death of her daughter-in-law, who was also a disgrace to the Xi Family, to wake up, she actually still lost his memories? Originally, when the Old Madame saw that she was paralyzed, she kept it in her heart. But now that she had woken up and lost his memories, the Old Madame''s anger started rising again.


    "I know." The old Madame shouted in anger.


    Third Wife said lightly: "I understand."


    The Xi Mansion felt as if he was about to explode. A few months later, the First Lady suddenly woke up and lost all his memories ¡­ This was simply unbelievable.


    Chun Hua became a First Lady, not only did she eat delicious food, she also had a comfortable room to live in, and there were even servants to order him around, making her days even more comfortable than before. As an outer court disciple who met a stingy man, her days weren''t that good at all. She was just a maid and a servant; how could she be served?


    "Delicious, delicious, I still have to eat ¡­" Chun Hua wolfed down her food heartily, as if she was a reincarnated hungry ghost. Right now, the Xi Mansion was completely under the control of the Third Wife, and the servants in the First Lady''s rooms were all arranged by the Third Wife, so Xi Jiu Er could be at ease.

 C161

    After Chun Hua''s matters were properly arranged, news came from the Lady Yun ¡­ It was born!


    This time, Lady Yun was very happy to successfully give birth to his son, the eldest son of the Yun Family. In the future, he will inherit everything in the Yun Family and be the successor to the Yun Family! The Full Moon Wine was a huge event. As long as it was someone with a reputation, the Yun Family would invite them. As the direct descendant of the Miss, Yun Qing Ran now had a younger brother, and her position in the mother was even more solidified. She had temporarily become a famous person, and other than that, it was because of Shi Chen Wen''s'' confession ''!


    Xi Jiu Er was Yun Qing Ran''s best friend, and was also the main target of the Lady Yun''s invitation. Everyone began to discuss Xi Jiu Er, saying that she was just sending her off, and even said that she had grasped a mysterious recipe, that she had given birth to her. This recipe, everyone guessed, was given to her by Sun Kong Ming.


    Those Madame who had been infertile for many years or had been ignored because of their children all wanted to get the prescription from Xi Jiu Er. Madame Zhao got the prescription from Xi Jiu Er, she was extremely happy in her heart, her mouth was always tight, but still let the people who wanted to know to know. The Madame Zhao was helpless, so she told the prescription to the sisters who had a good relationship with him. heart-nourishing hall''s business was flourishing all of a sudden.


    Chu Ge was now a princess, so even if the Xi Family gets worse every day, there would still be a Wei Guogong behind him, and she would still have the title of princess, ah, she wouldn''t fall too far behind.


    intentionally made the best craftsman in the capital forge a golden lock and used a pair of silver bracelets as a congratulatory gift for the full moon. This time, when Xi Jiu Er went over, she was already there for a while. She pulled her and asked: "Are you feeling better?"


    "Don''t worry, they all use the best medicines and recover quickly." Xi Jiu Er smiled, looking at the endless stream of guests, she was speechless, this kind of atmosphere was too big, perhaps there were many rules.


    "Let''s go, when Qing Ran is done, he''ll come back to find us." Chu Ge pulled Xi Jiu Er and went inside, and when they reached a quiet place, she sighed: "There are so many people. I can finally hide for a while and enjoy the peace and quiet. "


    "They''ve really invited a lot this time." Xi Jiu Er looked at the people outside. There were many that she did not recognize, even the Miss s that she did not recognize.


    "Of course, Old Master Yun looks forward to having a son for more than ten years, do you think that it won''t be grand?" Chu Ge laughed: "Let''s go, we''ll find a place with fewer people to sit."


    The Residence of Yun had servants everywhere to keep them busy this time, in case something bad had happened due to a moment of carelessness. Yun Lao Fu had suffered a lot at his hands, but when they heard that Xi Jiu Er had come to take revenge on behalf of the Princess Laifu, all of them started to feel uncomfortable, and upon hearing that Xi Jiu Er''s current identity was Princess Laifu, they couldn''t help but pout their lips in disdain.


    Yun Qing bit her lips and said, in the heart of Yun Lao Fu, that she also wanted to go out and socialize with him. Now that Lady Yun had a son, her position in the mother was in grave danger. She had to consider herself, she was no longer young ¡­


    How could Yun Lao Fu not understand her thoughts? On such a big occasion, she knew that she could not afford to make any mistakes, it would just be losing face for the people of Yun Family. Even if she did like the Lady Yun, she had to consider his reputation first.


    "Grandmother... Qing Er is begging Grandmother. " When Yun Qing saw Yun Qing Ran being surrounded by the Miss like the moon being surrounded by stars, and heard everyone praising Yun Qing Ran, her heart ached from pain, and she was filled with crazy jealousy. Unreconciled to take over her entire heart ¡­


    Yun Lao Fu was grinded to death by her, and at the end, had no choice but to compromise: "Alright, alright, go ahead, if you cause trouble then I will definitely not let you off."


    Yun Qing was overjoyed and quickly agreed: "Thank you, Grandmother, for your help. Grandmother is relieved that Qing''er will definitely not cause any trouble."


    "Go." Yun Lao Fu waved her hand lightly, and let the servants by her side properly clean herself up. At that time, she would attend her grandson''s Full Moon Feast, and since she had not seen anyone for many years, she would definitely leave a good impression on everyone, and let everyone remember her.


    When he came to the two halls where Yun Qing Ran was playing in the past, he told Chu Ge about the interesting information between the two of them, and it made Chu Ge laugh out loud.


    "Prince Xian, do you think I look good while wearing this flower?" A delicate voice of a woman sounded out, "Do you like it?"


    From afar, Prince Xian and a young lady walked over. Chu Ge said lightly: "A while ago, I said that Prince Xian was sick, but now, it seems quite good. It seems like you''re luring bees and butterflies again!" The eyes she used to look at Prince Xian carried a hint of disgust.


    Mu Qiu Shui seemed to be different from before. He couldn''t tell what was different about him, but he kept feeling that Mu Qiu Shui didn''t like this kind of person. His heart skipped a beat.


    "It looks good no matter what." Mu Qiu Shui laughed sinisterly, causing the girl beside him to become extremely bashful. Only then did she see Chu Ge and Xi Jiu Er, and greeted them with a nod of her head: "Miss Chu, Princess Laifu."


    "Mn, Miss Zhou." Xi Jiu Er did not know the Miss, but she had met him once before.


    Chu Ge and Xi Jiu Er bowed towards the Prince Xian, who took a careful look at Xi Jiu Er ¡­ He felt that the girl in front of him gave him a very familiar feeling, a feeling that other Miss had never brought him before.


    He knew that he had lost all his memories, and why he had told Shui Xian to investigate the matter. Could it be that this servant girl was very important to him?


    "Haha, are the two Miss here to admire the lake?" The Prince Xian smiled gently. He didn''t know why he didn''t want to show that unruly smile in front of the Princess Laifu.


    Chu Ge said indifferently: "Yes, we will leave now." After saying that, she pulled Xi Jiu Er and left. Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er stopped.


    Her skin was smooth and slightly cold. Prince Xian didn''t know why but he had grabbed her wrist, although people called him unrestrained and unrestrained, only his trusted aide was actually so clean and honest. If it wasn''t for the sake of His Majesty, why would he make such a scene for the rest of the world to see?


    "Prince Xian, please behave yourself!" Chu Ge was displeased, and used her hand to pull Xi Jiu Er''s arm.


    "Princess Laifu, were we very familiar with each other before?" Prince Xian raised his eyebrows and asked.


    Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes. What, had she lost her memory? She raised her head and smiled lightly. "I''m not too familiar with him. I''ve only met him a few times. Forget it!" The man in her mind who had once smiled at him was gone, the man who had told him that he liked him was also gone, the man who had told him that he wanted to marry him was also gone ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was a little frustrated, but she quickly abandoned that idea. To live a new life, this was her revenge! She didn''t think much about anything else.


    "Is that so?" The Prince Xian knew a little auntie, how could he not have any memories of a woman like Xi Jiu Er? It was unreasonable. With that thought, the beauty had already been dragged out by Chu Ge.


    "Jiu Er, it''s better if you don''t interact too much with this Prince Xian. This person is a household type, you must be careful of him." Chu Ge said sincerely: "All we women hope for is a good home, Prince Xian is not."


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er smiled, Chu Ge saw that she took her words into her mouth and laughed: "Your status is now very noble, in the future, your status as husband will not be low."


    "Did Sister Chu become a Engagement?" Xi Jiu Er changed the topic. She didn''t want to talk about those things that were illusory anymore. What she needed to do was to finish everything before her own Engagement. And then ¡­ Then she could go out and have a look and see a better view.


    "We''re discussing ¡­" Chu Ge''s expression remained indifferent, as though she did not want to talk about this issue anymore, and remained silent for a while. Suddenly, a beautifully dressed young girl walked towards him. No matter how she looked at it, the young girl twisted her waist, making it seem as though she was sitting down. Xi Jiu Er squinted, wasn''t that Yun Qing?


    Yun Qing did not expect to meet Xi Jiu Er and Chu Ge here, the smile on her face became a little stiff, she smirked, hiding the unwillingness within her eyes and bowed: "Greetings Big Sister Jiu Er, Big Sister Ge''er."


    "What big sister Jiu Er, what little sister Ge''er, a little concubinage calling herself sisters?" Chu Ge didn''t like it so she could see through it with a glance. She said in an imposing manner, "I am the Miss Chu and this is the Princess Laifu. Don''t you know it?"


    Yun Qing bit her lips and said with extreme unwillingness, "Yes ¡­ Yun Qing greets Princess Laifu, Miss Chu. "


    "Hmph." Chu Ge scoffed coldly, looking at Yun Qing with ridicule.


    Xi Jiu Er did not like Yun Qing either, today was Yun Family''s wedding banquet, she did not want anything to happen, so she lectured him coldly: "Even if you are Yun Family''s concubine, you cannot be so disorderly, as the guests outside are watching, and cannot do anything that would disgrace Yun Family''s face." She did this for the sake of the Yun Family.


    Yun Qing scoffed, peh, why did you not look at her own thing! Everyone knew that Xi Wan Rong had been chased out of Xi Family and married into Han Family, and Xi Wan Feng was said to have disfigured his face, so it was better for him to take care of his own family matters first.


    This was what Yun Qing was thinking in her heart. She did not dare to say it out loud, so she said half-heartedly: "Yes."


    Chu Ge and Xi Jiu Er both left. Yun Qing tiptoed and saw a handsome figure on the pavilion in front of him. Who else could it be other than Prince Xian? Yun Qing was concubinage, and Yun Family was also a large family, so concubinage would also go out to socialize with him. In order to prevent others from saying that she was being harsh on concubinage, Lady Yun would even bring along Yun Qing.


    However, it was very rare, and could be counted on one hand, allowing Yun Qing to very quickly be submerged within the upper class circles. One time when she saw Prince Xian''s figure, she was immediately bewitched by him. If she was to become the secondary wife of the Prince Xian, then she would have a higher chance. After all, there was nothing in the world that she was afraid of but the willing.


    "Miss ¡­" The maidservant said softly: "Prince Xian and Miss Zhou are together."


    Miss Zhou? Looking at the back, Yun Qing knew which Miss it was and snorted: "Let''s go." There was no way he could compete with her for Prince Xian s.

 C162

    As long as someone who was related to the Yun Family arrived, they would be invited. The outermost few tables were filled with connections, including the Li Family, who initially wanted to go with Xi Wan Feng''s status, but unfortunately, it was useless. In the end, the Mrs. Li had to form a deep relationship with them.


    Xi Wan Feng should not have come to the Mrs. Li in the first place. She had no intention of mentioning to the Mrs. Li that she knew quite a few of the capital''s Young Master s and was relatively familiar with the families of those people. This time, Mrs. Li was going all out with her three daughters. In her heart, she hoped that her daughter would go, but when Master Li said that, she could only bring two concubinage s with her. And only after pleading with Master Li did he agree to bring Xi Wan Feng along.


    In order to obtain this opportunity, Xi Wan Feng had put in a lot of effort. Only she herself knew the most about the amount of disdain she had for him. But ¡ª it was worth it, it was all worth it to be able to sit here.


    It had already begun, and it was very lively inside. Unfortunately, the people outside could only prick up their ears and stretch their necks to peek inside. Xi Wan Feng said that she went to the latrine when she heard''s words. Mrs. Li immediately grabbed her and said, "I went to the latrine and came back quickly."


    How could Xi Wan Feng not know the intentions of the Mrs. Li? He hurriedly nodded and left. The Yun Mansion was very big, so Yun Family bought many maids this time. One of the maids was called Zhao Di, and this Zhao Di was one of the maidservants near the Li family.


    Xi Wan Feng roughly estimated what kind of servant the Lady Yun liked, and intentionally told Zhao Di about it. Zhao Di was always a dull person, and Xi Ji came from the capital. His knowledge and bearing were not ordinary people, so Zhao Di naturally believed in her unconditionally.


    "Eh? Do you have a servant named Zhao Di here? " Xi Wan Feng put on airs. To reduce the number of people in the Li Family, he did not bring Xi Wan Feng''s maids here. Even if he did not bring his servant, Xi Wan Feng, as someone who had worked in the Miss for more than ten years, he still had the appearance of a Miss.


    "Yes." Servant will go call the Miss now. " This servant came with Zhao Di to the residence, and their relationship was not bad usually, so they immediately went to look for Zhao Di.


    Xi Wan Feng was afraid that if he met Xi Jiu Er, the right place would be hidden, unless Xi Jiu Er had nothing to do, he wouldn''t be able to find him here.


    "Miss Xi?"


    "Zhao Di?" Xi Wan Feng''s eyes lit up, and affectionately pulled Zhao Di: "Zhao Di, I have something to ask you to do."


    Zhao Di had a very ordinary appearance, it was impossible to tell from the crowd. The only thing that made people remember her was his stiff face, which showed that he was someone who abided by his duty.


    "Miss Xi, if there''s anything you need, feel free to tell me. As long as Zhao Di is able to do it." Zhao Di laughed honestly.


    "Zhao Di, drink this for Prince Xian." He took out a small bottle and stuffed it into Zhao Di''s hands, speaking with an urgent voice, "Zhao Di, this thing is colourless and tasteless, it will not be discovered."


    "Xi Shi Miss, you, what are you doing ¡­" Zhao Di''s face turned pale white, his hands began to tremble, and his face was full of fear.


    "Zhao Di, I''m begging you, just give this to Prince Xian to drink ¡­" Xi Wan Feng promised, "Don''t worry, nothing will happen to you."


    "I... "I ¡­" How could Zhao Di dare? [He is a prince after all. If he doesn''t die, how will she survive?] No.


    "If you don''t do it, I''ll immediately have your house burned down... Didn''t your brother owe a lot of gambling debts? As long as you are willing to help me, I will definitely help your little brother pay his gambling debts. " Xi Wan Feng could not wait. This was her only chance, if she lost this chance, she would lose it. His life in the Li Family was worse than his life as a servant.


    "..." Alright, Miss Xi, you keep your promise. " Zhao Di''s brother owed a large amount of gambling debts. If he could pay it back, then that would be the end of their family. For his brother, for her family, anything she did was worth it.


    "Don''t worry, my words are true." Xi Wan Feng was overjoyed, pushing Zhao Di in. Zhao Di was the most popular out of the new batch of servants, because she was willing to suffer losses, was good to others, and was foolish. Therefore, she took the initiative to give Prince Xian food. The other maidservants happily agreed.


    Xi Wan Feng sat back down, his heart thumping hard for a moment. The Li sisters could not wait any longer, so Mrs. Li grabbed her hands and asked unhappily: "Why did you go out for so long?"


    "Hehe, when I met a Miss I knew, I could not help but chat for a while." Xi Wan Feng laughed.


    Mrs. Li went over and lowered his voice: "You know a lot of people. Quickly tell me, which family has a good family background and which family''s young master''s character is not bad ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng muttered in disgust: "Mrs. Li, I''ll go in and take a look later. At that time, I''ll think of ways to let them meet with all the Miss s ¡­ "If Madame likes it ¡­" The meaning was obvious. If you like it, you can do it yourself.


    Mrs. Li hurriedly nodded. "Go, go."


    Xi Wan Feng stood up and tidied up her dress. Her reputation was not very good in the capital, and if she met those Miss s, she might get laughed at. It was better not to go in, and she would just wait here for news of Zhao Di.


    As they waited anxiously, Zhao Di finally arrived. "Miss Xi, Prince Xian has already finished drinking ¡­ Would something happen? " This was the first time Zhao Di had done something like this, and he was extremely terrified.


    "Don''t worry, nothing will happen to him." Xi Wan Feng said impatiently: "Go and busy yourself, remember, you can''t speak of what you said today to anyone, does anyone know?"


    "..." "I know ¡­" Zhao Di tugged at the corner of his shirt and asked: "Then about my brother''s wager ¡­"


    "Don''t worry, I will help your little brother return it." Xi Wan Feng perfunctorily replied as he organized his appearance. He left without turning his head back, leaving Zhao Di behind with a face at a loss as to what to do.


    When Xi Jiu Er and Chu Ge said these words, as the Great Miss, Yun Qing Ran had already gone out to socialize. After a while, the crowd started to whisper, Xi Jiu Er did not notice, it was only when Chu Ge poked his shoulder did she see Xi Wan Feng.


    Xi Wan Feng? Why was she here? Xi Jiu Er was truly surprised this time. But then she thought, Xi Wan Feng must have some way to get in.


    Under everyone''s astonished gazes, Xi Wan Feng directly walked toward the Prince Xian ¡­


    "Yo, isn''t this Xi Family''s Great Miss? "I heard someone sent him out ¡­"


    "That''s right, I heard that her sister went to the Han Family to be her concubine."


    "What?" Han Family? That Han Family? "


    "You still have that Han Family?"


    "Could it be that one?"


    "Mm ¡­"


    "Isn''t Han Family the little sister who married Xi Family? "Why ¡­"


    "It''s not ¡­"


    He felt dizzy and depressed. Prince Xian shook his head when he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, the smell stopped bothering him at once and when he lifted his head to look for the smell, he suddenly felt that the girl in front of him made his heart palpitate, as though he was the one looking for a partner for himself.


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Wan Feng opened her mouth slightly, her eyes inspecting the area without leaving a trace, when suddenly her hand was wrapped in a dry and rough big hand, causing her face to instantly flush red.


    "Miss Feng, I want to marry you as my wife." The Prince Xian solemnly announced, shocking a group of people. Xi Jiu Er was also surprised, was Mu Qiu Shui out of his mind? Why did she want to marry Xi Wan Feng? Xi Wan Feng did not have much interaction with him? Could it be that there was some sort of secret?


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head a few times, pursing her lips but did not say a word.


    "Prince Xian... You, what did you just say? " The person closest to the Prince Xian asked in disbelief, "Why did you marry her? Don''t you know that her reputation has already become bad?"


    "Prince Xian, look at all the Miss present, how are you going to choose her?"


    "That''s right."


    To them, Xi Wan Feng was just like a trash. Not only would marrying him be ridiculed by others, it would not be of any help to their career. What was the use of marrying him?


    "Your Highness ¡­" "You ¡­" Many of the Prince Xian s were so angry that they stomped their feet. What the hell was this?


    "Mr. Xi, I will find a matchmaker to propose to you another day." Prince Xian pulled Xi Wan Feng''s hand and said to Xi Hong Sheng. Xi Hong Sheng was pleasantly surprised: "Alright, alright, this old subject will be waiting for you."


    When Xi Hong Sheng saw Xi Wan Feng appear, he was infuriated. He thought that this calamity fiend was here to cause trouble, but who knew that this would be a good thing?


    "Jiu Er, this is strange." Chu Ge whispered.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was in great pain. Not only did she not live a good life, she even married the Prince Xian and became her! She silently glanced at Chu Ge and shook her head. She did not want to participate in the birthday banquet, so she asked the servants to send a message to the Lady Yun that she was not feeling well and went back.


    "Little Sister Jiu Er ¡­ Where are you going? " Xi Wan Feng was already an extremely beautiful woman at the banquet, she was very pleased when she saw the expression on Xi Jiu Er''s face, if she did not act now, how could she wait?


    Hearing the pleased look in her words, Xi Jiu Er slowly turned around and stared at Xi Wan Feng with a smile. Her smile made the surroundings lose color, at the same time, made Xi Wan Feng feel that he was a fool who was trying to flaunt his strength, and the result was that did not put him in his heart at all.


    "Xi Wan Feng, this Princess Xian hopes that you can do it for a long time." Xi Jiu Er turned around and suddenly left with a slightly demonic smile. The wind blew against her skirt and her black hair... Her back was extremely beautiful. Xi Wan Feng had to admit that Xi Jiu Er was an extremely beautiful woman.


    "Princess ¡­" Liu Xiang carefully asked: "The cloak fell at the banquet."


    "No need, let''s go." Xi Jiu Er said with a gloomy face.


    "Yes."

    That night, Xi Wan Feng gloriously returned to Xi Mansion, shocking everyone in the mansion. Third Wife pursed his lips, had a plan in mind, and asked about Xi Jiu Er''s movements. The Mother Fang replied as usual, but it was exceptionally quiet.


    The Third Wife was relieved, the quieter Xi Jiu Er was, the bigger the movements would be. No one compared to Xi Jiu Er who hated and detested Xi Wan Feng and his mother more than anyone else. It was obvious from the methods she used to deal with them.


    Third Wife calmed down, and asked Mother Fang to bring Xi Ping over, in case Xi Xi Wan Feng thought this was funny. In comparison to the calmness of the Third Wife, Chun Hua was feeling anxious, worried that she would be exposed.


    "What''s there to be afraid of? You just need to take out the aura of a Shangguan Madame, don''t talk so much. No matter what Xi Wan Feng asks, you have already forgotten about it." Xi Jiu Er remained calm and poured himself a cup of tea to drink.


    "This, this is feasible?" Chun Hua asked. Xi Jiu Er was not someone who was easy to deal with, and her sworn enemy was obviously not someone who was easy to deal with. Besides, she was her mother and daughter, and she would eventually discover some clues after more than ten years of love.


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er waved her hand and said impatiently: "You can go back, if not she would have gone to your courtyard to look for you, to pay her respects to you."


    "¡­" Chun Hua went back worriedly, but her heart was not at ease at all.


    just laid down and he came over, upon hearing that mother was ill with amnesia, Xi Wan Feng did not believe him. Xi Jiu Er was cunning, he would only treat the mother and daughter duo the same way. Now that there was no one by her side, and even the Wang Ma was no longer around, would Xi Jiu Er let her, the mother, get off scot-free? Not likely.


    "mother ¡­" When Xi Wan Feng saw that the woman in front of him was safe and sound, with a flushed face, he couldn''t help but find it a little unbelievable. Is Xi Jiu Er being merciful recently or what?


    "You are ¡­" Chun Hua braced himself and asked.


    "It''s me, I''m Wan Feng ¡­" mother, you don''t remember me? " How did Xi Wan Feng suddenly think that Xi Jiu Er was so bold to actually have a fake First Lady in his Xi Mansion? Thinking about it, Prince Xian had lost her memories before, and there had also been people like her in the past.


    After a great blow, one may lose one''s memory. It was probably because her own children left her side in succession that they were unable to bear such a blow and lost their memories. Xi Wan Feng accepted the mother and daughter pair and choked with sobs: "mother, your daughter is back! Your daughter will become Princess Xian in the near future, when that time comes, I want to see how that bitch will hurt you again."


    Chun Hua, what? Princess Xian? Ouch, I''ll go... This was going to be troublesome. If she found out that she was an imposter, wouldn''t she be skinning herself?


    "mother... Your daughter will go to see your sister tomorrow! "Don''t worry, I won''t let anyone hurt my sister, nor will I let anyone harm my brother." Xi Wan Feng pulled Chun Hua''s hand. He felt that Chun Hua''s gaze was perfunctory, impatient, and completely unfamiliar with her eyes. She felt very uncomfortable in her heart.


    After Xi Wan Feng left, Chun Hua patted her chest in exhaustion, "Emma, you scared me to death, you scared me to death." Not only was the other party the sovereign''s daughter, she would also become the Princess Xian in the future.


    Xi Wan Feng successfully returned to the Xi Family. The Mrs. Li brought his three daughters to the Xi Family; Unexpectedly, they were chased out of Xi Family by Xi Family, but Xi Wan Feng told them that he was unwell and that he didn''t want to see guests, so he told them to come back another day.


    "Pfft, what the heck is this thing!" Mrs. Li was furious, Xi Family was really going too far. Back then, when they sent Xi Wan Feng to their place, they did not say a single word, and now they were turning hostile? And this Xi Wan Feng, he''s too shameless, if they still don''t understand how stupid they would be if they were treated as stepping stones.


    "Let''s go, Xi Family, just you wait. Our Li Family is not easy to bully." Mrs. Li spat towards the entrance of Xi Family, bringing people with him as she stormed out.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled brightly as she stood at the entrance. She was in a very good mood, as she had created another enemy for Xi Wan Feng.


    "Liu Xiang, go buy me some food from the Fragrant Sky Tower." Xi Jiu Er suddenly became greedy. Right now, she was even more lazy to move. He probably had a child ¡­


    Children... Children... Xi Jiu Er was a little speechless. Several months had already passed, and according to normal pregnant women, their stomachs were already bulging.


    "Ah, yes, princess."


    Liu Xiang went to the Fragrant Sky Tower and bought Xi Jiu Er''s favorite pastries. also bought some for the ex-sister-in-law, but decided to take some to the heart-nourishing hall and bought some for Liu Shui as well. As long as it was food, it was fine!


    The heart-nourishing hall was very busy. Liu Xiang left the things for the shop assistant to bring back, and just as she was about to go back, he suddenly thought of Xi Jiu Er''s body. After hesitating for a while, she went up to the second floor.


    On the second floor, Feng Qing Cheng was sitting in the clinic, and most of the people asking were women. Each of their faces were red, as if they were not sick at all. Liu Xiang muttered to himself as he sat down and waited quietly.


    "Young master, I often feel dizzy ¡­" What do you think is going on? " The young lady''s sweet voice made Liu Xiang feel nauseous, but Feng Qing Cheng''s expression did not change as she checked her pulse, "This Miss, you''re very good. You''re not sick."


    "How is this possible? I feel so dizzy... "So dizzy!" The girl stood up and tilted her head towards Feng Qing Cheng, causing Feng Qing Cheng''s body to move very quickly, causing the girl to fall on the ground right away.


    It instantly provoked a wave of ridicule.


    "Hahahaha ¡­"


    "Serves you right."


    The lady was so embarrassed that her face was flushed red, she gritted her teeth as she stood up and glared at Feng Qing Cheng. The other girls immediately rushed to grab the chair.


    "Scram, this is mine."


    "Bullsh * t, this is mine, f * ck off."


    "Mine, go to the side of death."


    "Ah, you actually dare to steal my chair, you''re all courting death."


    The girls started to get into a fight, Feng Qing Cheng took out the bell and shook it, the clear and melodious sound immediately made the girls quieten down, each of them busy arranging their appearances, not forgetting to stare left and right.


    "Miss, the hours of the doctors today are full. All of you can go back now." Walking up to the shop assistant, he very impolitely invited everyone away.


    "Doctor, I''ll come back tomorrow."


    "Wait for me ~ ~"


    "Scram! No one is allowed to snatch her tomorrow. If they dare to snatch her from me, then I will disfigure their faces."


    "Yo, your tone is pretty good."


    "Is there something wrong with Miss Liu Xiang?" Feng Qing Cheng sat down and asked: "Are you not feeling well or is it your princess?"


    Liu Xiang was a bit hesitant, but she was not in a hurry to wait. Liu Xiang pursed her lips and asked softly: "Doctor Xiao Feng, I just want to ask, why is it that a woman hasn''t come to Yueyue for so many months?"


    "Are you pregnant?" Feng Qing Cheng glanced at Liu Xiang, embarrassed to the point that even her eyes had turned red.


    "No, no, no bulge ¡­" I just didn''t get a letter... "What should we do?" Liu Xiang shook her head, looking at Feng Qing Cheng''s serious face, she became anxious. It won''t be very serious.


    "Doctor Xiao Feng, what do we do, is it serious?" Liu Xiang asked anxiously.


    There were only a few people that Liu Xiang cared about, so she asked: "Miss Liu Xiang, I only found out after checking my pulse, I don''t even have a diagnosis for this yet, I''m not sure."


    Liu Xiang was a Miss who had not left the pavilion. If news of this were to spread, what should be done to the people who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity? With a forced smile, Liu Xiang replied perfunctorily: Alright, I understand. Thank you, Doctor Xiao Feng.


    After he left, Feng Qing Cheng fell into deep thought.


    Xi Wan Feng comfortably laid on the bed, a cold smile surfacing on his face.


    The Prince Xian had arranged for the marriage ceremony to take place half a month later, and in this period of time, Xi Wan Feng was obediently waiting for the marriage ceremony. Perhaps, she could use this opportunity to think of a plan ¡ª ¡ª Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er!


    Xi Wan Feng went to the Han Family, but Xi Wu Er did not see him.


    "Where''s my sister?" Xi Wan Feng knew that if he were to lose his favor, Xi Wu Er would definitely add fuel to the fire. She did not see Xi Wan Rong''s figure and immediately had a bad premonition: Where''s my sister!


    Xi Wu Er was not afraid of her. She was, after all, the daughter-in-law of the Han Family. Xi Wu Er said indifferently: "She''s crazy, I closed her off right in front of your eyes."


    Heh, she had gone mad before she even made a move on Xi Wan Rong.


    "I''m going to take a look." Xi Wan Feng suddenly stood up.


    "Sure." Xi Wu Er turned and brought Xi Wan Feng to a remote little courtyard. There were no guards around the little courtyard at all, and a gust of wind that blew past made people feel like there were evil winds blowing, which was extremely terrifying.


    Xi Wan Feng, this kind of person who did too many bad things, was naturally afraid of ghosts and gods, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat ¡­ Suddenly, a female scream came out from inside, it was Xi Wan Rong''s voice.


    "I am the most beautiful woman in the world, no one is as beautiful as me! "Hahahaha ¡­"


    "Hehe ¡­" I die the most beautiful... "The most beautiful ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng felt goosebumps all over his body. How could he dare to go in? Xi Wu Er stopped and looked at her, then frowned: "Did you not find a doctor?"


    "I''ve found her. She bit off half of the capital''s best doctor''s ear ¡­" Xi Wu Er said indifferently: "Big sister has just returned, I presume that you don''t know about this matter."


    Xi Wan Feng took a cold breath, "Why is Rong Er crazy?"


    Xi Wu Er said lightly: "I don''t know, but one day she suddenly grabbed her own face and screamed crazily, and then she went crazy."


    "It was you, you did it." This Xi Wu Er is not a good person. Xi Wan Feng determined that Xi Wu Er was the one who did this, and Xi Wu Er did not dispute it. He only said, ''Elder sister, don''t wrongly accuse a good person!''


    Coming out from Han Family, Xi Wan Feng tightly clutched his chest, his face pale white.


    Xi Jiu Er... She trembled as she took out a bag of things. This was what she had brought out from the Li Family for Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er, don''t think you can escape this time.


    After returning to the Xi Mansion, Xi Wan Feng did not speak. Her entire mind was filled with Xi Wan Rong''s shrill cries, which seemed to have pierced through her brain and become her inner demon.

 C164

    Xi Wan Feng returned a few days later. When Mrs. Li returned, all of his anger was directed towards Xia Er and sent back even when she was half dead. Xi Wan Feng looked for a doctor to look at. "Once I become a Princess Xian, I will definitely not let the Li Family live an easy life."


    Xia Er rested peacefully in her residence. For people who were useless to him in the Xi Mansion, there were some things that Yun Che did not dare to do, for fear that his eyes would find out. She was afraid that Xi Jiu Er would give her the chance to marry to the Prince Xian. As long as she did not get married for a day, she would be on tenterhooks.


    Her marriage was managed by the Third Wife. Currently, the "First Lady" ate, slept, ate, or went shopping. Their lives were incomparably leisurely and relaxed.


    With regards to the mother, whose personality had changed greatly, it was not that Xi Wan Feng did not doubt the possibility of swapping places. He thought it was a disguise technique from the martial arts world. She used this chance to get close to the First Lady to probe. She did not have a mask on. This time, he believed it to be true. Perhaps his personality had really changed greatly.


    In terms of timing, Xi Wan Feng''s phoenix coronet and robe were all made from outside, hence his reputation was very good. Third Wife was busy for half a day, and the headdress was out, so he asked the servant to bring it over for Xi Wan Feng to see.


    "Madame, come and drink some water." Mother Fang handed over the tea with endless concern.


    Doubts arose in Third Wife''s heart. Logically speaking, the Princess Laifu should have already made his move, why was there no movement? It was unreasonable. Was Xi Jiu Er really going to let Xi Wan Feng go?


    Deep into the night, Liu Shui went to Third Wife''s room and handed him a bag of things. "Third Wife, this is what my princess gave you, please put it in Xi Wan Feng''s embroidered shoes."


    "What is this?" The Third Wife asked curiously, Xi Jiu Er was finally going to make her move.


    Liu Shui shook his head: "Servant doesn''t know."


    Three days later, after hearing from the servants that there would be a riddle, that the Miss s that had yet to leave the pavilion could not join in on the commotion, Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Xiang and the other two to go.


    Xia Er whispered: "Miss, everyone has left."


    "It''s good that she left. I was just afraid that she wouldn''t go today." The scheming in Xi Wan Feng''s eyes made him look extremely gloomy and terrifying. In order to fool Xi Jiu Er, she had meditated for a long time and came up with this idea. It was so that she could be prepared for anything ¡­ Ah, Buddha beads, I hope this time Xi Jiu Er this little slut can do it again.


    "Xia Er, let''s keep up. But you must be careful, Liu Shui''s skills are unfathomably deep, if she finds out, all of his previous efforts will be wasted. " Xi Wan Feng whispered.


    "Miss, let''s disguise ourselves. They definitely won''t be able to recognize us." Xia Er calculated in her heart. Xi Wan Feng''s eyes lit up. It was a good idea.


    The event was very lively. There were bright red lanterns everywhere, each with a different style. The drawings on the lanterns were also unique and original. There were a lot of people coming to the lantern festival, men and women of all ages, young and old. It was extremely lively.


    Xi Jiu Er was pulled along by two servant girls as she ran and ran. In the end, I found myself at a dream meeting, resting on a lantern that, if only I could see all the riddles in it, would be given the treasure of the town: a large and beautiful lantern. The lantern had a round body and was stained with red and yellow paper. On it, there was the word "Lifting Mountain and River" ¡­


    "Miss, this, this is good." Liu Xiang immediately replied.


    Liu Shui came out mainly to eat, these things did not attract her much, that round lantern was not even comparable to a bowl of Red Braised Meat.


    "I don''t think that I, the Miss, am that knowledgeable, able to guess all the riddles." Xi Jiu Er said coldly as she raised her eyes.


    "Give it a try Miss, you''re so smart, you''ll definitely be able to guess it." No matter how Liu Xiang looked at it, she felt that the lantern was really pretty.


    "Doctor Xiao Feng?" Liu Shui shouted while chewing on the roasted chicken.


    Feng Qing Cheng was still dressed in his navy robes as he walked over with a light smile. Warm as jade, like a warm ray of sunlight, he slowly walked in front of Xi Jiu Er and asked with a smile, "What a coincidence."


    "It''s not a good coincidence." Liu Xiang pointed to the lantern and looked at Feng Qing Cheng with envious eyes: "Doctor Xiao Feng, since you''re so capable, can you help me win back that lantern?"


    Feng Qing Cheng looked over, then turned and laughed: "You like this lantern?"


    "Right." Isn''t this nonsense?


    Feng Qing Cheng nodded his head: "I will do my best, but this lantern is not for you, but for your Miss."


    Eh? What''s the difference? Won''t giving the Miss back to me? Liu Xiang thought about what Feng Qing Cheng had just said, and really felt that there was something different about them.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and said indifferently: "No need, since Liu Xiang wants it, as her master, I will naturally think of a way to bring it back for her." At most, she could just buy it back.


    "Miss ¡­" Liu Xiang was surprised. Why was Miss unhappy?


    Liu Shui blinked his eyes and said: "It''s about to start."


    Xi Jiu Er glanced at the smiling Feng Qing Cheng, and then walked into the crowd and said to the vendor: "Shopkeeper, let me do it."


    When the booth owner saw that it was a dainty and elegant Miss, he did not have much of an expression on his face, as if victory was already in his grasp. The stall owner was very confident in his riddle. He smiled and said, "Then Miss, please."


    "There is no shortage of fish rice at the end of the year."


    "Scale."


    "A red rooster with a green tail. It''s body drilled into the ground. It''s sweet, crispy, and nutritious."


    Xi Jiu Er turned to look at Liu Shui. Because this glutton was by her side, she knew a lot of things that she had never seen before.


    "Radish."


    "There are holes, and no insects. There are nests, and no mountains. There are silk holes, and no silkworms. There are umbrellas, and no people."


    "Lotus?" Xi Jiu Er was a little unsure.


    The vendor found Xi Jiu Er''s weakness and made up her mind. She couldn''t just take the treasure of the town out with the opening of a business, right?


    "Five or six brothers, sit around a pillar. Once we break up, all our clothes will be torn."


    "Garlic!"


    "A round face is like an apple. It is sour and sweet and nutritious. It can be eaten as a dish, but it can also be used as a fruit."


    "Tomato?"


    "It''s white and square, tender and fragrant, able to cook, able to cook, and able to cook soup. The bean is his father and mother, it''s different from his parents."


    "Tofu."


    "Martial, fight!"


    "Fei."


    "Bright bottom of pond ¡­"


    "F * ck ¡­"


    "Everyone gets drunk in the full moon night lantern festival."


    "Lantern Festival."


    "A gentleman among flowers is beautiful and fragrant, a beautiful woman in a hollow valley is famous for her beauty. Her charm and elegance are worthy of admiration, even if no one else is willing to do so."


    "Orchid."


    "The colorful thread enters the small hole and seeks the embroidery of the female crown!"


    "Needle piercing begging"


    With a bitter face, he said, "This Miss is quite capable. Fine, this lantern will be given to Miss, I hope that Miss will be safe and sound, everything will go smoothly.


    "How would I know?" Xi Jiu Er asked as she raised her head lazily.


    Therefore, Liu Xiang pouted and walked behind with small steps while carrying the lantern, her face filled with unhappiness. It was all due to her negligence. She had only been thinking about getting the lantern, and hadn''t thought about it any further.


    Gradually, Feng Qing Cheng also fell behind. No one knew what he was thinking, but his eyes shone brightly. Liu Xiang felt that Feng Qing Cheng was like a fox planning something.


    "Doctor Xiao Feng, you, are you alright?" Liu Xiang asked softly.


    "Ah?" "I''m fine." Feng Qing Cheng raised her head and regained her noble and refined look, but Liu Xiang did not think that what she saw just now was just an illusion.


    Xi Wan Feng, who was following them, frowned. Xi Jiu Er was so lucky to have such an extraordinary man by her side. She was probably going to give up on this man this time. She was really unwilling to accept this.


    "Miss, they went to the teahouse." Xia Er whispered.


    "Follow them." Xi Wan Feng raised his chin.


    In the teahouse, Xi Jiu Er looked at Feng Qing Cheng in astonishment. Her meaning was obvious: Why are you following us? Feng Qing Cheng smiled slightly: "I want to drink some tea."


    The business of the teahouse was cold. A few people were sitting on the second floor, drinking tea while looking at the people coming and going on the street. They felt that life was so enjoyable at this moment. Liu Shui''s eyes suddenly focused, and saw Xi Wan Feng and her servant who were hiding in a secret area downstairs.


    "Princess, Servant still wants to eat roasted chicken." Liu Shui smacked his lips.


    "Go." Xi Jiu Er looked down, master and servant had such a tacit understanding after all this time. Liu Shui knew martial arts so it was not a secret. He used one hand to support himself against the fence and jumped down, landing firmly on the ground and running away.


    Xi Wan Feng shouted loudly: "We''ve been discovered, run quickly."


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look at the movements of Liu Shui and the others below. Suddenly, she felt a pain on the back of her neck, and she fainted along with them. Who, who was plotting against her, who was it?


    Liu Shui was smashed to the ground like a stone in front of Xi Wan Feng. He laughed: "I say, Great Miss, why are you running in such a hurry, don''t you run!"


    "You, what are you trying to do?" Xi Wan Feng pretended to be calm and asked.


    "Nothing?" I would like to ask Great Miss what do you want to do. " Liu Xiang asked with a silly expression. She fished out a bulging paper bag from her chest, opened the bag and took out a fat white bun to eat.


    "What can I do? I was just here to look at the lanterns, why did you suddenly jump in front of me? " Xi Wan Feng clenched her teeth, her heart was also filled with hatred, Damn it, could it be that the matter had been exposed again?


    "Haha ¡­" Liu Shui laughed dryly a few times, and finished all the steamed buns in a few bites. He wiped his greasy hands on his clothes to clean his mouth: "Really? Then it means that Servant has misunderstood. Great Miss, please. " After which, he moved out of the way.


    Xi Wan Feng gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do, as he left with hatred. Liu Shui''s martial arts skills were unfathomable. As long as she was by Xi Jiu Er''s side, Xi Jiu Er would add wings to a tiger, she had to first think of a way to eliminate Xi Jiu Er.


    When Liu Shui passed by the snack stand, he bought a pack of snacks. He was thinking about why the Prince Xian would marry that repulsive, stinking woman, Xi Wan Feng. Strange, really strange.


    When Liu Shui went to the teahouse, he found that Liu Xiang had fallen on the ground, and Xi Jiu Er had already disappeared without a trace.


    "Liu Xiang..." Liu Shui threw away the chicken thigh in his hand, and rushed forward. After looking at Liu Xiang''s breath, she realized that Liu Xiang had only fainted, and heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Hua ¡ª" Liu Shui splashed the cold tea on the table onto Liu Xiang''s face. Liu Xiang quickly woke up, blinked her eyes, and saw the person who had come over: "Liu Shui, go save the princess. The princess was taken away by that doctor."


    "Alright, just wait. I''ll go chase them." No matter what, you must wait here for me and not go back. " Liu Shui said as she jumped down from the teahouse and ran in one direction.

 C165

    Xi Jiu Er opened her eyes and looked at the stars in the sky. She couldn''t remember where she was right now. Suddenly, her body moved and a heavy object was pressing down on him. She turned her head and shouted in disbelief, "You, you, why are you here?"


    The moonlight was hazy, and the skin of the man beside her was as exquisite as jade. It was actually even better than some of the Miss s in their girls. "Ugh ¡­" What was she thinking? Shaking his head, Xi Jiu Er looked at Feng Qing Cheng''s slightly exhausted face. The bruises were very obvious, as if someone had squeezed them dry.


    "I... "You really are amazing." Feng Qing Cheng coughed a few times.


    Whoosh whoosh * A gust of wind blew past, causing Xi Jiu Er to shiver coldly. Lowering her head, she saw that her clothes were all messed up. Wait, Chinese medicine? Could it be that drug?


    "Explain yourself to me." Xi Jiu Er was furious, her voice came out intermittently amidst the wind. Feng Qing Cheng stood up and said indifferently: "You have been drugged, and you and your two maidservants have ordered it. When the three of them get together, it will become a powerful aphrodisiac. And I was poisoned by your medicine. "


    It''s Xi Wan Feng! No wonder she was obediently waiting to be married these few days. So this was the reason. If she followed him tonight, she would probably be able to catch him after he was with a man. Xi Jiu Er thought, but felt that something was off, and she couldn''t pinpoint what it was.


    "Tidy up your dress, let''s go back." Feng Qing Cheng''s voice was hoarse as he turned his body.


    Xi Jiu Er tidied up her skirt and frowned. It was so strange, why was it that other than feeling sore all over her body, there was no other feeling? That was unreasonable! After putting on the long skirt, the two went back.


    Xi Jiu Er had good judgement skills, even at night she wouldn''t be able to affect her. Feng Qing Cheng was a martial artist, walking in the night was nothing. Xi Jiu Er saw that he was staggering and his legs were trembling.


    The sky would already be very late, I wonder how Liu Shui and Liu Xiang are doing. Suddenly, he realized that something was wrong with him. "Hey, why didn''t you find another woman when you planted the medicine?"


    Feng Qing Cheng turned his head and faintly said: "I feel disgusted whenever I see other women with this medicine and I''m only interested in you. Seeing my appearance, you should know just how tyrannical this medicine is. "


    Xi Jiu Er coughed, a red glow covering her fair cheeks.


    About a quarter of an hour later, the two of them walked out onto the main street. Xi Jiu Er was at a loss for words. Not knowing where she was, Feng Qing Cheng said: "Let''s go to the teahouse from before."


    The night was quiet, and the streets were very quiet.


    Xi Jiu Er followed Feng Qing Cheng to the teahouse from before, which had already closed for the night. Xi Jiu Er started to plan what to do next ¡­ Suddenly, a black figure jumped out and started fighting with Feng Qing Cheng. Feng Qing Cheng retreated step by step and was forced to shout: "Stop."


    The one who attacked Feng Qing Cheng was none other than Liu Shui.


    "Speak, why did you kidnap the princess?" Liu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er and sighed in relief when he saw that she was safe and sound. She did not have a backbone to begin with, so when Xi Jiu Er was kidnapped, she did not know what to do. The only thought in his mind was to find Xi Jiu Er first.


    "Ask your princess." Feng Qing Cheng''s entire body was in pain, the little girl had used her deadly hands on him.


    "Princess, what''s going on?"


    Xi Jiu Er did not want to explain the reason for this matter, she shook her head: "Nothing, I did not have the time to tell you guys about this matter, where is Liu Xiang?"


    Liu Shui did not pursue the matter: "Fortunately, we met Miss Yun today, and for the sake of not revealing anything, Servant ordered for you to stay with Miss Yun in the house outside Yun Family tonight."


    "Really?" "That''s good." Xi Jiu Er heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Feng Qing Cheng, and pursed his lips: "Let''s go."


    Feng Qing Cheng wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at Xi Jiu Er''s departing back, he said patiently: This is truly ruthless.


    With a swoosh, a man who didn''t seem to be out of the ordinary at all appeared behind him. "Your Highness, this subordinate has already investigated the matter of Prince Xian''s marriage. Xi Wan Feng gave a servant girl called Zhao Di something."


    Was it caused by that thing? Feng Qing Cheng was silent for a while before laughing, "It is not without reason that Xi Wan Feng was able to live this long under Jiu Er''s watch. If you even have something like this, you probably have quite a few strange things in your hands. "


    "Let''s go." Feng Qing Cheng waved his robe and turned to leave.


    "Jiu Er, are you alright?" In the courtyard of Yun Family''s family, Yun Qing Ran was sitting uneasily.


    "Don''t worry, it''s fine." Xi Jiu Er smiled and comforted Yun Qing Ran, her heart moved. In his previous life, he didn''t treat her friend sincerely. In his current life, she had been so lucky to have a friend like Yun Qing Ran.


    "It''s good that you''re fine." If Xi Jiu Er didn''t laugh, then something would definitely happen. Seeing her tired face, Yun Qing Ran immediately ordered her to wash up.


    "Where''s Liu Xiang?"


    "That maid of yours is so anxious that he has fainted. He is resting right now. Don''t worry, I will send someone to take care of her."


    "Yes."


    At night, no matter how much Xi Jiu Er tossed and turned, she could not fall asleep ¡­ Sometimes it would be Feng Qing Cheng''s appearance, sometimes it would be Prince Xian''s appearance! She shook her head, Prince Xian was about to marry Xi Wan Feng, why would her head suddenly pop out? This was unreasonable. No one had thought of him before?


    That night, for the first time ever, Xi Jiu Er dreamt of Feng Qing Cheng, as well as their child, a beautiful male darling. Xi Jiu Er was stunned by this dream for a long time before she woke up in the morning.


    "Princess ¡­" Liu Xiang''s choked with sobs. She stared at Xi Jiu Er with teary eyes, like an abandoned puppy.


    "What have we not survived, after all we have been through? "Don''t worry!" Xi Jiu Er comforted her for a while before she stopped crying. Then, Liu Xiang helped Xi Jiu Er wash up.


    "Princess, someone from the manor has arrived. They have been waiting for quite some time." Liu Xiang whispered: "It''s mother of joy."


    mother of joy? From the looks of it, the reason mother of joy was here was because of the old Madame, and it was very possible that the old Madame was here because of Xi Wan Feng. After she was done packing, Xi Jiu Er heard Yun Qing Ran and the mother of joy''s voices from behind the bead curtain.


    "mother of joy." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "I will be back soon, how dare I trouble you."


    mother of joy laughed. "Old Madame dreamt about the princess last night, and when she woke up, she started to panic. Thus, she had me come over to take a look, and we went back to the residence together."


    Last night, Xi Wan Feng came back to tell Xi Hong Sheng that he saw him being kidnapped by a strange man and immediately sent people to look for him. Coincidentally, this matter let mother of joy know, the old Madame did not believe Xi Wan Feng''s words, so she could clear up Xi Wan Feng''s playthings.


    Xi Hong Sheng led his men to look for it, but to no avail. Only at night did Yun Family send over news that Xi Jiu Er was with Yun Qing Ran. It was only then that the old Madame got her attention and felt that something was amiss. Thus, she made the mother of joy wait for someone early in the morning. If there was someone here, it would definitely be someone under the family law.


    mother of joy saw Liu Shui early in the morning. Liu Shui and Xi Jiu Er had always been inseparable from each other, so he was probably really in Yun Family. When he saw mother of joy, he let out a sigh of relief.


    "Is that so? Let the Grandmother keep it in mind. " Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly.


    After eating breakfast, Xi Jiu Er bid farewell and returned back to her residence. Yun Qing Ran sighed, Xi Jiu Er''s life was even more miserable than her own. Look at Xi Wan Rong''s ferocity and strength, as well as Xi Wan Feng''s wrist, they were not easy to deal with.


    Returning to the Xi Mansion, Xi Jiu Er bid farewell to the old Madame before returning to her own courtyard. Xi Wan Feng smashed the vase on the shelf into pieces. Wow, wow, the heavens are helping you. However, don''t worry. Luck won''t accompany you forever.


    On the next day, Xi Wan Feng got married, and everything was peaceful.


    On the day of the wedding, Xi Wan Feng was dressed in phoenix coronet and ceremonial robes. Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were blazing red from the fire, and he was unable to open her eyes. Xi Wan Feng, one day, I will make this day your joke. One day ¡­


    Prince Xian rode his horse happily to get married, the orange rays of the sun shining down on his body became a kind of ornament. Xi Jiu Er couldn''t see his expression clearly. His happiness had already spread to everyone.


    At this moment, the man who had saved her so many times, the man who had promised her a pair of people, would completely disappear from her heart. Even if there were any remnants of him, she would use time to slowly kill him.


    He suddenly turned around and left the crowd behind. His face was calm like still water. Liu Shui and Liu Xiang, the two maids, had to quickly follow along. Liu Shui said anxiously, "Princess, perhaps there is some other secret behind all of this."


    Xi Jiu Er did not say a word, and anxiously said, "Princess, don''t be angry anymore ¡­ Your highness has your heart. "


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly stopped, and said in a voice that was devoid of emotions: "Liu Shui, you must remember that you are now mine." Then she left without looking back. Liu Xiang hurriedly caught up and grumbled at Liu Shui. She was still rubbing salt on the princess'' body at a time like this, simply too lifeless.


    Liu Shui was stunned by Xi Jiu Er''s words, maybe Xi Jiu Er already knew what happened, and just did not break the window. With her intelligence, she would definitely be able to see through it.


    Liu Shui stretched his neck, she had never betrayed the princess, so she had a clear conscience.


    Deep into the night, the red candles were in tears, the beautiful girl Xi Wan Feng was sitting on the bed with her head covered, her heart thumping hard. He did not know how long it took for the door to creak open. Xia Er had told them that he wanted to make a ruckus in the bridal room, but the Prince Xian rejected him.


    "Prince ¡­" Xia Er bowed.


    "Go down." Prince Xian slowly spoke out, he did not seem to be drunk at all.


    "Yes ¡­" Xia Er obediently went out and closed the door.


    Xi Wan Feng felt her heart racing. She was very nervous and shy to the point that her face was flushed. A pair of boots was placed under his nose, and slowly opened with the help of the bridal veil.


    Prince Xian''s expression slowly became unusual, somewhat stunned, somewhat dazed, and somewhat absent-minded. Was Xi Wan Feng afraid that the pill would lose its effect? If that was the case, everything would have been for naught.


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Wan Feng said.


    "Feng''er ¡­" Prince Xian had some difficulty opening his mouth, as though the two words were a million gold. It was unknown what expression Xi Wan Feng had on his face as he looked at her. The two of them looked at each other silently as Xi Wan Feng observed every single expression on the Prince Xian''s face. Prince Xian, on the other hand, stared blankly at Xi Wan Feng.


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Wan Feng said softly, with a probing tone.


    "Eh?" The Prince Xian revealed a reluctant smile: "I suddenly thought that I still have something to do, I need to go to the study room.


    "Your Highness!" Xi Wan Feng cried out. Under Prince Xian''s surprised gaze, she tried her best to look gentle. "Rest early."


    "Right." The Prince Xian hurriedly left, leaving behind a dark faced Xi Wan Feng.

 C166

    In these three days, the Prince Xian had never touched Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng had indistinctly pointed out that she was his wife. In the end, he could not pretend and directly said: "My body has suffered too much. I will have to wait and take care of it for a while."


    No matter what, she was still a woman, so how could she continue to think about this matter? Furthermore, Prince Xian also said that it''s reasonable to take care of your body. In the entire capital, who didn''t know that Prince Xian came and went of the brothel, treating the brothel as his permanent residence? All year round, even a man made of iron would become a man, wouldn''t he?


    On the day Xi Wan Feng returned to her home, she was holding the title of a Princess Xian. Unfortunately, she didn''t see Xi Jiu Er, and her flaunting and complacency slipped away like smoke. After inquiring, he found out that Xi Jiu Er had gone to the Wei Guogong.


    Was he hiding from me? Xi Wan Feng didn''t care whether she was right or wrong, that was what she thought. In Xi Mansion, Prince Xian had given her sufficient face, allowing her to understand how much the Great Miss loved and doted upon by her.


    In the Wei Guogong''s residence, Xi Jiu Er was playing chess with Wei Guogong, who laughed: "Jiu Er''s chess skills have improved by a lot."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled sweetly. "Jiu Er has studied the chess board that I got from grandfather in detail." It was also because she revealed such an innocent look on Wei Guogong''s face.


    After a few rounds, Xi Jiu Er did not hold back at all, killing all of Wei Guogong. Wei Guogong continued: "I''m old, I''m old. I''m useless."


    "Prince Fu ¡­" Old Zhang went over and whispered a few words into Wei Guogong''s ear, causing Prince Fu''s expression to change slightly. Xi Jiu Er heard it loud and clear, Old Zhang said that there was a clue.


    What could cause the Wei Guogong''s expression to change just by hearing it? Xi Jiu Er was suspicious.


    "Jiu Er, Grandfather has matters to take care of. We will continue when we return." The Wei Guogong did not even have the time to pull out a smile before she hurriedly left. A wave of doubt rose in Xi Jiu Er''s heart. Curiosity was aroused, Xi Jiu Er immediately ordered Liu Shui to bring him to the study room as fast as possible.


    "Liu Shui, you can leave." If he was discovered by the Wei Guogong, then no matter what, he was still one of them, Liu Shui would be different. If it was some kind of secret, then Liu Shui would definitely not be able to live.


    Just as Liu Shui left, the door to the study room opened. With a loud bang, a heavy sound came out from the chair. Wei Guogong''s voice that was as loud as a rainbow said in a low voice, "You said that the Imperial Jade Seal has clues?"


    "Yes."


    "Where?"


    "Xi Family!"


    "What?" Xi Family? " The Wei Guogong said hoarsely, "No wonder the late emperor and emperor had always been wary of this old man. They must have thought that the reason this old man married his only daughter to the Xi Family was because of this Imperial Jade Seal."


    Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth. Jade Seal? But the hereditary Imperial Jade Seal? Could it be that the late emperor ascended the throne without the Imperial Jade Seal? Could the rumor be true? Was the late emperor plotting to usurp power?


    "Xi Family... Xi Family... " A method that could end things once and for all flashed through Xi Jiu Er''s mind. It could catch Xi Hong Sheng and the others in one fell swoop.


    "Xi Family... Send someone to Xi Hong Sheng''s study room to check on it tonight. " Wei Guogong said: "I can definitely find some clues."


    "Yes."


    "Alright, you can leave now."


    Xi Jiu Er heard the sound of the door opening and closing. After being quiet for a while, she heard Wei Guogong sigh: "Why does it have to be in Xi Family? Then what about Jiu Er? "


    "Grandfather, Jiu Er will think of a way to protect herself." Xi Jiu Er appeared from behind the hiding place and embarrassedly smiled in front of Wei Guogong''s shocked expression, "Grandfather, don''t be angry. Jiu Er is curious about what caused Grandfather''s expression to change the moment he heard it."


    "You, you! Sigh ¡­ If you know, then this must not be leaked to anyone. Do you know that? Rest assured, even if it''s with the Xi Family, Grandfather will take care of you. " Wei Guogong was not angry anymore. This granddaughter of hers was weird and sensible. It was not a bad thing for her to know about this matter.


    "Grandfather, you don''t have to worry. Jiu Er will find a way to protect herself." Xi Jiu Er walked over and held Wei Guogong''s hand. Those hands were old and full of calluses, and Xi Jiu Er''s eyes reddened. "Grandfather, can you do me a favor?"


    "What is it?" Wei Guogong asked gently.


    "I want Xi Hong Sheng and First Lady to grind their bones to dust." Xi Jiu Er said word by word.


    Wei Guogong was extremely surprised. He knew that Xi Family did not treat Jiu Er well, but she never thought that it would be bad to the point where Xi Jiu Er would burn her bones and scatter her ashes. The pain in her heart was unbearable, "Jiu Er, it''s all Grandfather''s fault ¡­ It''s all Grandpa''s fault. "


    "Grandfather?" Xi Jiu Er went over and comforted her, "Grandfather, Jiu Er has been living a good life. Really, no matter how much they bully and humiliate Jiu Er, he will still be able to live an extremely good life."


    "Jiu Er, don''t worry. Grandfather will definitely not let those people who hurt you off." Wei Guogong wiped the corners of her eyes as if she was swearing something. Xi Jiu Er s nose calculated, and laughed: "However, Jiu Er has grown up, Jiu Er can protect herself, so grandfather doesn''t need to worry."


    Imperial Jade Seal? Why is the Imperial Jade Seal in the Xi Family? If she was really in Xi Family, it would be like the heavens helping her, Xi Jiu Er.


    "Princess, what''s wrong? Why are you in a daze? " Liu Shui asked suspiciously.


    "It''s nothing!" Xi Jiu Er lifted the curtain and suddenly found someone in the crowd ¡ª Zhong Tang Jun! Xi Jiu Er''s originally frowning brows instantly relaxed. Zhong Tang Jun, Xi Wan Feng... It was important for the two of them to make good use of it.


    "Stop the car." Xi Jiu Er got off the carriage and called for Zhong Tang Jun. Zhong Tang Jun seemed to be a little more dispirited than before. Xi Jiu Er knew the reason behind this. Originally, Zhong Family wanted to bring good prospects to Zhong Family, but he did not expect his husband to substitute for Li Jian. They said that it was the eldest young master, but they did not expect that after marrying him, they would know that it was the second young master, a fool!


    Not only did the Zhong Family gain nothing from Zhong Yue He, his reputation had also suffered. As for Zhong Tang Jun? He was still the same as before, spending so much time and effort on things, almost angering Master Zhong to death.


    "Ninth Miss?" Zhong Tang Jun frowned, he had not seen the girl for a long time, she was even more beautiful now, although she was beautiful, but her aura could not be compared to a normal girl''s.


    "If Young Master Zhong is free, why don''t we go to the teahouse for a drink?" Xi Jiu Er laughed, and without waiting for Zhong Tang Jun''s disagreement, he went up to the teahouse first. This teahouse''s business was not very good. When Xi Jiu Er looked around, she realised that this teahouse had been here for a long time.


    Zhong Tang Jun had followed along and only interacted with Xi Jiu Er for half a month. At that time, he did not pay attention to her;


    Mrs. Zhong said he liked Xi Jiu Er, and said that in the future, he would definitely be a rare good wife. At that time, Zhong Tang Jun scoffed, and what happened to Xi Wan Rong later on was no longer a secret. Under Xi Wan Feng''s notorious situation, she actually married the Prince Xian, I have to say that she had some ability. As for Xi Jiu Er, she was so quiet that she didn''t seem to exist, but if she appeared in everyone''s field of vision, she would definitely be the one who stood out.


    "Young Master Zhong, I''ve come today just to tell you one thing." Xi Jiu Er looked at the tea, playing with the sides of the teacup, her nails full, fingers slender and long. Zhong Tang Jun couldn''t help but look at her movements ¡­


    "What is it?" Zhong Tang Jun replied indifferently.


    "That night, the one who had an intimate relationship with Young Master Zhong was not my Sister Wu, but rather ¡­ Big Sister Feng. " Xi Jiu Er said this to Zhong Tang Jun because she suddenly thought of something that Liu Shui had mentioned while she was in the carriage.


    Zhong Tang Jun once wanted to bring a brothel girl home. His attitude was very insistent. In the end, the Mrs. Zhong forced Zhong Tang Jun to give up on this thought with his death wish. Zhong Tang Jun then secretly raised the girl in the manor. Once, Mrs. Zhong sent someone to follow his son and found out that this matter was not small at first.


    Liu Shui said that the girl in the brothel looked very similar to Xi Wan Feng, she was much more beautiful than him.


    Xi Jiu Er had already begun to ponder about it. What exactly do you mean by "Zhong Tang Jun"? Could it be that he liked Xi Wan Feng? When he thought back to the day when Xi Wu Er wanted to marry him, his face was filled with unhappiness.


    "What?" Zhong Tang Jun''s face changed, he regained his senses and anxiously asked: "Is what you said true?"


    He knew that Xi Jiu Er and Xi Jiu Er were at odds against him, but he was afraid that Xi Jiu Er would trick him into using the spear. That night had become an unforgettable night in his life. He had seen a lot of women, but none of them gave him the feeling of that night. He thought it was Xi Wu Er, but his instincts to women told him that it wasn''t Xi Wu Er.


    The scent on Xi Wu Er''s body was completely different, it was more like Xi Wan Feng''s. Zhong Tang Jun flaunted himself as a talented man, and had always wanted to marry a talented woman, but Xi Wan Feng had never taken a liking to him, and never looked at him directly. Because of that night, Zhong Tang Jun felt like a demon to Xi Wan Feng.


    After knowing that Xi Wan Feng was not doing well and was chased out of the Xi Mansion, he wanted to take a look. However, the Mrs. Zhong had looked at her too closely, she could not allow him to be careless. She spent the entire day studying the Book of Virtue at home, hoping that she would walk down the path of an official and not allow the Xi Family to look down on her.


    "Why would I lie to you? If you don''t believe me, then go ask her yourself. If I believe her, then she will tell you the truth."


    "Maybe you''re jealous that she''s better off than you are. All of this is fake. You''re the one who lied to me, right?" Even though she believed Xi Jiu Er''s words, she was still stubborn.


    When Xi Jiu Er left, she did not say a single word, and only left Zhong Tang Jun, who could not recover from his shock for a long time.


    After returning, Xi Wan Feng had already left. The servants of the house were all discussing about the Prince Xian''s favor to Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng was very generous with his money this time, and gave the servants quite a bit of silver. In short, Xi Wan Feng had flipped over!


    The morning of the second day, Xi Hong Sheng left for the morning assembly in high spirits. On the other side, Xi Wan Feng sent a message to to go to Prince Xian''s Mansion.


    "Princess, are you going?" Liu Xiang pursed her lips: "It definitely isn''t anything good."


    "Go, of course go. How else would we know what she''s up to?"

 C167

    "maidservant greets Princess Xian." Xi Jiu Er bowed, and on the surface, she did not reveal any inkling of what had happened, as if the battle between the two was just like the past. On the other hand, Princess Xian Xi Wan Feng who was at the side had a joyous smile on her face. She did not call Xi Jiu Er to stand up, but instead waved her hand to let all the servants leave.


    "Xi Jiu Er, hahaha, have you seen it? Now that you are kneeling down to me, what kind of status do I have? Xian ¡ª ¡ª King ¡ª ¡ª Consort! I stole your favorite man and took over your position. Are you angry? Are you angry? Do you feel like you want to kill me? " Xi Wan Feng said complacently: "What a pity, you can''t do anything!"


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t seem to hear her at all. Her goal was to anger her, to get angry, but unfortunately she was not going to do as she wanted! The person who robbed him of her beloved? Heh ¡ª ¡ª Her revenge is not over. She has always treated the Prince Xian as a friend, even though the two of them have crossed lives and death many times ¡­ Where are the two of them ¡­ But compared to his previous life''s miserable death and the death of the mother, what use was emotion? In his heart, he was grateful to Prince Xian for saving him many times.


    Xi Wan Feng realized that he was not able to provoke Xi Jiu Er at all, and became even more furious. He stepped forward and intended to slap her with his palm.


    "Xi Wan Feng, don''t be so shameless." Xi Jiu Er shook off the hand that was holding her fiercely, then stood up and shook off the dust on his skirt as he left with a cold face.


    How could Xi Wan Feng let her leave like this? Suddenly, she shouted at Xi Jiu Er, "Stop!" Unfortunately, he didn''t give her any face and kept walking.


    "Xi Jiu Er, don''t be too complacent, one day I will make you kneel at my feet like a dog, wagging your tail at me and ask me to let you go." Xi Jiu Er shouted at Xi Jiu Er''s back. Xi Jiu Er felt a scorching gaze on her back, and upon hearing Xi Wan Feng''s words, she sneered: "Alright, we''ll see who begs who when the time comes."


    "Alright." Xi Wan Feng gritted his teeth. She had to admit that Xi Jiu Er''s attitude was something she did not have, as though everything was within her plans, and she was jumping around in front of her like a clown.


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Wan Feng wanted to scream hysterically.


    "Princess, what happened to you?" Xia Er hurriedly ran in and saw that all the things on the shelves inside Xi Wan Feng''s house were shattered into pieces.


    "Nothing, go. Let my good sister Princess Laifu go to the Eastern Corner Pavilion. I have already prepared a feast to invite her." Xi Wan Feng laughed.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was about to return, she was stopped by Xia Er who came rushing over: "Princess Laifu, my wangfei has prepared some dishes and wine, please follow me."


    Xi Jiu Er had already adjusted her own mental state, perhaps it was because of the influence of the words'' Prince Xian ''. Xi Wan Feng, aren''t you going to be proud of yourself? I won''t let you be proud.


    "Alright, since big sister wangfei is so passionate, it''ll be hard for me to refuse your kindness."


    At the eastern corner of the pavilion, Xi Wan Feng prepared some dishes and wine and sat inside the pavilion, thinking about something. A gentle wind blew past her and lifted her hair, bringing about a quiet beauty. Then, he turned around and his face quickly became cold and venomous: "Princess Laifu is here?" She thought she wouldn''t.


    It was obvious that simple bakery and wine did not mean anything. Xi Jiu Er sat down and personally poured wine for her. This action of her made Xi Jiu Er''s brows slightly rise, and she laughed: "How dare I trouble Princess Xian?"


    Xi Wan Feng smiled slightly: "You are my guest, it is only right."


    However, Xi Jiu Er said: "It''s said that if one does not try to please me, they will definitely steal. Wang Fei Fei''s warm treatment of me has truly flattered me, and I''m afraid that there might be some sort of scheme behind it." He paused for a moment before continuing, "Princess, you won''t poison me, right?"


    Xi Wan Feng pulled out an ugly smile and said: "You''re overthinking things. You''re my little sister, how could I bear to hurt you?" These words were so fake that Xi Jiu Er nearly puked.


    "Sigh ¡­" After Xi Wan Feng finished pouring the wine, he sat down and sighed.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t know what kind of medicine she was hiding in her gourd, and only played with the wine cup in front of him without saying a word. She sighed again, and then raised her own wine cup to drink a mouthful of wine.


    The moment Xi Wan Feng appeared, he had to guard against her.


    "Ugh ¡­" Xi Wan Feng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then Xia Er pointed at Xi Jiu Er and said: "Princess Laifu, you take the medicine for the wangfei!" It was a very confident voice.


    "Bullshit." Liu Shui shouted: "Stop spouting nonsense."


    "Someone come, someone come! The Princess Laifu poisoned the wangfei. Someone come ¡­" Xia Er screamed. Not long later, many servants arrived, including Mu Qiu Shui.


    Mu Qiu Shui walked over and saw that the blood Xi Wan Feng spat out was black. He glared at Xi Jiu Er angrily, "Princess Laifu, why did you poison my princess?"


    Xi Jiu Er was very angry, Mu Qiu Shui had never spoken to him in such a manner before. She did not know why she was angry, perhaps it was because the person she was defending was Xi Wan Feng.


    "Prince Xian, I did not poison the wangfei." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "If you don''t believe me, then forget it."


    "You!" Prince Xian found out the explanation and immediately ordered for Xi Wan Feng to be placed in his own house, and even invited a doctor.


    "Your Highness ¡­" You must seek justice for me. I had a misunderstanding with Princess Laifu and wanted her to come here to resolve this misunderstanding. I didn''t expect her to poison me! " Xi Wan Feng laid on Mu Qiu Shui''s body, his body unceasingly sliding down, Mu Qiu Shui picked her up.


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Wan Feng said slowly.


    "Don''t worry, you''re This King''s wangfei. This King won''t allow anyone to bully you as they please." Mu Qiu Shui glanced at Xi Jiu Er, and then left while carrying Xi Wan Feng. While Xi Wan Feng was hiding in Mu Qiu Shui''s embrace, he revealed a pleased smile towards Xi Jiu Er, as if to say: You see, the man who once risked his life to save you and risked it all to save you is hugging me.


    Why was Xi Jiu Er looking at that drawing that eye-catching? Liu Shui frowned, "Princess ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er walked over and carefully observed Xi Wan Feng''s wine cup and extended his hand. Liu Shui gave her a thin and long silver needle. There was no poison in the wine, no poison in the pastries, and no poison in the fruits ¡­ Did she take this poison in advance?


    "Eh ¡­" "Tsk, when the princess smears the color of her lips, they actually fade ¡­" Liu Shui said to the remaining color of the lips at the side of the wine cup.


    Xi Jiu Er said: "Come over and let me take a look."


    "Okay." Liu Shui handed it over.


    Xi Jiu Er frowned. She suddenly had an idea and asked Liu Shui to get some clear water so that she could wash the rouge in it. No poison, and melts rouge into wine ¡­ Poison!


    So that was the reason why Xi Wan Feng was poisoned. At this time, someone asked Xi Jiu Er to go with her, as Mu Qiu Shui was waiting for an interrogation. In the house, the doctor had already come to treat Xi Wan Feng, saying that there were no major problems, but luckily he found them in time.


    Wasn''t it just in time? The doctors had already prepared everything, and the servants were waiting not too far away! When Mu Qiu Shui heard that Xi Wan Feng was fine, he let out a sigh of relief. He felt very strange in his heart, why did he love his daughter so much?


    "Your Highness ¡­" "You have to uphold justice for me ¡­" Xi Wan Feng said weakly with a pale face.


    "Princess Laifu, you framed my wangfei. What do you have to say for yourself?" Mu Qiu Shui asked.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I did not poison you, regardless of whether you believe me or not. However ¡­ "Since you said that I poisoned her, then shouldn''t I say that she was poisoned after drinking that wine? But before this, I haven''t even touched the alcohol, so how could I have poisoned her?"


    "Everyone says that you are very intelligent, how do I know what method you use to poison them?" Xi Wan Feng shouted in anger.


    Xi Jiu Er mocked: "If that''s the case, then I have nothing to say. Your Highness, would it be possible to get someone to pour you another cup of wine? "


    "What are you doing?" Xi Wan Feng suddenly had a bad premonition. She wanted to wipe the color of her lips, but Liu Shui stepped forward and grabbed her wrist.


    what did Prince Xian see? He directly ordered someone to bring a cup of wine over for Xi Wan Feng, who shook his head. "Your Highness ¡­"


    "Enough, this is my Prince Xian''s Mansion, not your Xi Mansion. She is this king''s consort, not someone you can humiliate as you wish. " Prince Xian suddenly roared, he rushed to Liu Shui''s side and threw off Liu Shui''s hand, then stared at him angrily and shouted.


    Protect Xi Wan Feng? Protect Xi Wan Feng! Xi Jiu Er''s face suddenly darkened, he was so quiet that it was as if a gust of wind had blown past without leaving a trace. Xi Jiu Er who was like this, almost applauded and applauded. He was angry, angry!


    "Does Your Highness think that the maidservant is bullying the wangfei?" Xi Jiu Er did not laugh under the skin: "maidservant is only trying to redress the grievances. What, the Prince doesn''t even give you the right to redress your grievances? "


    When Prince Xian saw Xi Jiu Er''s smile, he immediately felt a very uncomfortable feeling in his heart, and was very annoyed himself. As for why he was upset with the Prince Xian, he did not know either. A surge of energy was always in his chest.


    "Then you still have to look at that place. This Prince Xian''s Mansion is not a place where you can act as you please." Prince Xian took out the dignity of a prince, but his heart felt extremely uncomfortable.


    "Your Highness, Princess Laifu has always been intelligent since she was young. She must have thought of some way to frame Feng''er, and her greatest ability is to reverse the situation and slander others. Your Highness mustn''t be fooled." Xi Wan Feng held onto her chest with a face that looked both wronged and wronged, but only the corner of her mouth showed that she was in a good mood.


    Xi Jiu Er, oh Xi Jiu Er, you have such a day too! Do you see? The man who protected you like that before is now defending me!


    Xi Wan Feng''s demonstration had successfully angered Xi Jiu Er, and the more Xi Jiu Er raged, the calmer she became. He sat down on his butt and suddenly laughed brightly: "My prince, why are you so serious?

 C168

    What, what was this song about? The Prince Xian was at a loss, and looked at Xi Jiu Er suspiciously: "What are you trying to say?" This jump was way too fast.


    However, Xi Wan Feng sounded the alarm, there must be a reason for Xi Jiu Er to do this, she had to be careful, no matter what she said, she must definitely watch out for this bitch Xi Jiu Er.


    "It''s nothing, since Your Highness is my brother-in-law, then Prince Xian''s Mansion can also be considered half a master, right?" Xi Jiu Er tilted his head with an innocent look on his face. Not only was Prince Xian stunned by her actions, his eyes and teeth were bright, his skin was white and her face was filled with innocence.


    "Yes." Prince Xian said.


    "Since I am half a master in the Prince Xian''s Mansion, and you are also my brother-in-law, then wouldn''t it mean that I have been wronged and you helped me out? There must be someone wrongly accusing me in today''s matter. I think this girl is slandering me! Your Highness dragged her down and beat her thirty times, so she will definitely hand over the truth. " Xi Jiu Er casually pointed at one of the maid s, and the servant trembled in fear: "My prince, my princess, my prince doesn''t know anything. Princess, when did Servant wrongly accuse you?"


    "Xi Jiu Er, this is the Prince Xian''s Mansion, not the Xi Mansion. Xi Wan Feng''s mouth could sometimes be said to be alive. If she were to really punish someone today, then where would she, as an imperial concubine, be able to put her face in the future?


    "Big sister, how could little sister hurt you? It''s too late for little sister to take care of big sister." It must be one of the maidservants by her side that came to separate the two of us. We must beat this maid to death. " Xi Jiu Er pointed at the servant, as though she was the murderer.


    "Xi Jiu Er! Who''s your sister? I have no way to get involved with you... "You have plotted many times against my life and ruined my reputation. We no longer have any sisterly feelings for each other." Xi Wan Feng clenched her teeth. So what if she and Xi Jiu Er had broken off on the surface? She has a Prince Xian!


    "Is that so? Since I am not your Princess Xian''s sister, then I will clear this matter up in the name of the Princess Laifu and seek justice for myself. " Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed fiercely. Xi Wan Feng, you want to borrow Prince Xian''s hand to punish me?


    Xi Jiu Er said as she carried out the aura of a princess, "Prince Xian, if you don''t investigate this matter thoroughly today, I will enter the palace to beg Your Majesty''s favor and have him bring people here to investigate."


    "Xi Jiu Er, you bastard ¡­" Xi Wan Feng swallowed the ''person'' back down, and raised his head to speak in a pitiful tone: "Duke, you have to avenge Feng''er ah."


    Xi Jiu Er sat in her original position, her entire body emitting the aura of a person who wants to avoid anything and everything. Even though she was sitting quietly somewhere, the Prince Xian knew that she was angry.


    "Alright." Prince Xian said impatiently: "Let her prove her innocence in this matter!"


    Xi Wan Feng bit her lips, "Your Highness, I''m your wife! I''ve only married you for four days, are you going to treat me like this?"


    Seeing Xi Wan Feng''s tears, Prince Xian''s chest felt very uncomfortable, stuffy and painful. At this moment, Xi Jiu Er was his enemy, he hated Xi Jiu Er to the core as he stared fiercely at Xi Jiu Er, his entire body releasing a deterrent that he could not get close to: "Enough, let this matter be cleared up, someone, send Princess Laifu out."


    "Princess, please!" The servant came over and carefully opened his mouth.


    Xi Jiu Er glared at Prince Xian fiercely, as if he was trying to squeeze out from the gaps between his teeth. He said word by word, "Your highness wants to protect my wife?"


    "Xi Jiu Er, don''t you know what''s good for you. This king will not mind your impudent behavior today. If you know what''s good for you, then hurry up and scram." Prince Xian''s evil appearance was exposed, his extraordinarily handsome face had already been replaced with a raging one, but, he was still as beautiful as ever. If she was a girl, she would truly be a beauty that could topple empires.


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up, shaking off her long skirt, like a queen who couldn''t be reached, staring at the Prince Xian, she turned her head and smiled contemptuously at Xi Wan Feng: "Let''s wait and see, let''s see who will be the last one laughing."


    Walking out of the Prince Xian''s Mansion, both she and Xi Wan Feng did not have the advantage today. Liu Shui''s expression was even uglier than hers, as he accidentally bumped into Xi Jiu Er''s back. "Ah, Princess, why did you stop?"


    Xi Jiu Er turned his head and asked: "What are you thinking?"


    "Ah?" Servant thought that Xi Wan Feng was extremely evil, she should have broken her wrist just now. I don''t know what kind of knockout drugs you gave Prince Xian. " Liu Shui said angrily.


    "What about you, Princess? Why did you stop just like that?" Liu Shui asked in confusion.


    "I thought of a person. Do you still remember Shui Xian?" Xi Jiu Er was suspicious: "Shui Xian should be the guard of the Prince Xian, judging from her calm attitude, other than listening to the Prince Xian, she would not listen to anyone else, why haven''t I seen her?"


    "Miss''s meaning is ¡­" Liu Shui asked.


    "Tell me, won''t it be very lively when Shui Xian and Xi Wan Feng get together?" Xi Jiu Er revealed a strange and unfathomable smile.


    "Hehe, I wonder where this Shui Xian is." Xi Jiu Er muttered: "Go and check it out."


    "Yes."


    In Prince Xian''s Mansion, Xi Wan Feng sneaked a peek at Prince Xian. Seeing Prince Xian pour him a cup of wine, he said indifferently: "Drink it."


    Xi Wan Feng wanted to overturn the wine cup, but Prince Xian skillfully stopped him and poured the wine down. Xi Wan Feng coughed a few times, and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    Xi Wan Feng bit her lips and said, "I just wanted to teach her a lesson. In the past, I''ve suffered a lot because of her, but she always pushed me down, that''s why I thought of this method ¡­ "Prince ¡­"


    The doctor immediately gave her the antidote. In any case, it wasn''t some deadly poison.


    "You ¡­ Sigh ¡­ "Don''t be so reckless in the future. No matter what, it''s your own life. Don''t tell me you don''t even care about your own life?" Mu Qiu Shui sighed, why is it that her wife likes you the same as other women?


    "Yes ¡­" Prince ¡­ Are you angry with me? " Xi Wan Feng asked.


    "No!" Rest well, I still have things to do, so I''ll be leaving first. " Mu Qiu Shui stood up, and with his sleeves held by Xi Wan Feng, he said with a pitiful tone: "Your Highness, can you stay and chat with me?"


    "I still have things to do, be obedient." Mu Qiu Shui struggled free from Xi Wan Feng and left without looking back.


    Xi Wan Feng bit his lower lip and lay on the bed in exhaustion, thinking about how to put Xi Jiu Er to death. At the same time, she also realised that the medicine did not seem to have much effect, and it seemed to be able to make Prince Xian fall in love with her when he was awake.


    After returning to the Xi Mansion, the First Lady arrived. He said with an anxious expression, "Princess, Madame is inviting me to go tomorrow ¡­ Do I need to go? I''m afraid I''ll be exposed. "


    Xi Jiu Er asked which Madame it was, and First Lady tilted his head and said a name. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "This person is a friend of the First Lady, take care."


    At night, Xi Jiu Er took out her whistle and waited for Qiu Qiu to meow before appearing. She snuck up on Xi Jiu Er and laughed: "Qiu Qiu, I have something to tell you."


    "Master, as you command." Qiu Qiu tried to curry favor with her by meowing.


    "Can you find something for me?" Xi Jiu Er said in a low voice: "I don''t know what that thing looks like either. There are a few words engraved on it ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er asked Qiu Qiu to look for the Imperial Jade Seal. Qiu Qiu tilted his head and asked: "Master, what is the Imperial Jade Seal?"


    "The Imperial Jade Seal is what the current emperor uses." Xi Jiu Er explained that she didn''t even know what the Jade Seal looked like.


    "Oh, I heard that when the Emperor becomes the zodiac of a True Dragon, the True Dragon is like a deity that descended from the heavens, that''s easy to find." Qiu Qiu meowed a few times, then nimbly jumped out of the window.


    Xi Jiu Er just could not calm herself down and could not fall asleep. She tossed and turned until the sky was about to brighten, but Qiu Qiu did not come back. Could it be that there was a problem with Qiu Qiu? Xi Jiu Er was immediately nervous.


    As if something had fallen in through the window, Xi Jiu Er jumped in shock. Lowering her head, she saw a seal that was bigger than two of her fists lying at her feet. This seal was quite old and was covered in dust. It looked as if a life-like dragon was about to soar into the sky.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly had an idea. Could this be the Imperial Jade Seal? She took it from her hand and looked at the imprint. On it were carved the words "To be ordered by the heavens, to live forever". Gedeng, Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat. It''s true.


    "Master ¡­" Qiu Qiu''s weak voice came out, Qiu Qiu''s body weakly hung on the window, Xi Jiu Er immediately rushed over and hugged onto Qiu Qiu''s body, with a ''shua'' sound, Qiu Qiu returned to his space, the cat in his hand was already dead.


    "Master, Qiu Qiu was injured by the Imperial Jade Seal ¡­ Qiu Qiu has to rest... Qiu Qiu... " His voice grew weaker and weaker. Xi Jiu Er felt guilty and said, "Qiu Qiu, take care of your injuries properly ¡­"


    After properly keeping the Imperial Jade Seal, creaking Liu Xiang came in, "Princess? "Are you awake?"


    The cat was white so Liu Xiang didn''t realise it until she was dressed in the long skirt. When she touched it, she realised that the cat she touched was soft and soft.


    Xi Jiu Er was so preoccupied with the thought of the Imperial Jade Seal that she had completely forgotten about the white cat. She was shocked by Liu Xiang''s scream. "What''s wrong?"


    "Die ¡­" "Damned cat ¡­"


    "What''s wrong?" Liu Shui shouted as he opened the door.


    "It''s nothing, the cat died in my house ¡­" Xi Jiu Er comforted the two of them: "It''s fine, it''s fine."


    "Oh, oh, oh." Liu Shui nodded his head: "As long as you are fine." Then, he walked away shakily. Xi Jiu Er wondered if Liu Shui had done something bad in the middle of the night.


    "Servant is scared to death." Liu Xiang fearfully patted her chest.


    "It''s okay, it''s okay. Don''t be afraid."

    "of the Xi Mansion? It doesn''t feel like it, but no matter how I look at it, it''s just some outer room that the Iron Master s keep! "


    "It can''t be that you''re mistaken, First Lady Xi has always been like that. Aiya, I think it''s just that they''re similar to each other, there are a lot of similar people in the boundless universe, don''t worry about it."


    "I think I was wrong!" The Madame thought for a while and thought that she recognized the wrong person. When Xi Wan Feng heard this, his heart was moved. She had already been suspicious of First Lady''s amnesia, but after thinking about it again, it wasn''t impossible for her to lose her memories. But even if a person lost their memories, their nature couldn''t change, and the habit of living for more than thirty years couldn''t change either. She guessed that the First Lady in front of her was probably not her own mother.


    "Please wait, Madame." Xi Wan Feng said: I have something to talk to you about, can we sit alone and talk about it?


    Madame was startled, seeing that Xi Wan Feng did not look like a normal noble lady, she did not know who she was. The woman by his side recognized Xi Wan Feng and bowed: "Greetings, Princess Xian."


    "Get up." Xi Wan Feng said indifferently.


    Only then did the Madame hurriedly pay her respects. "Greetings, Princess Xian." She sighed to herself. So she was, the wife of the number one beautiful man in the Prince Xian. When she thought about it, she immediately felt uneasy.


    "Madame, let''s go!" Xi Wan Feng smiled: "Don''t be afraid Madame, I don''t eat people, I''m just asking you a few things."


    "..." "Yes."


    In the elegant room of the teahouse, Xi Wan Feng squinted his eyes: "Is my mother really the same as the outer room of the Iron Master?"


    "..." "Yes." When Madame saw Xi Wan Feng like this, for some reason, she was scared. With Princess Xian''s smiling face, why did she feel that she did not have a trace of a smile?


    "What about the shadow of the Master''s outer room?" Xi Wan Feng asked.


    "After being beaten up by Madame Tie, who knows where he went ¡­" The Madame said.


    Xi Wan Feng was stunned for a moment before regaining his senses. Smiling, he said, "Today, thank you Madame for answering this wangfei''s questions. However, we cannot let anyone else know about today''s matter, otherwise ¡­"


    Yes, today I just told Princess Xian about our family''s matters. I didn''t say anything else, I didn''t say anything else. Madame was not stupid and immediately knew what to say. Xi Wan Feng''s face suddenly turned pale as she smiled faintly.


    "Hehe, Madame, you can go back now." Xi Wan Feng said.


    "Yes."


    Playing with the small and cute cup in his hand, Xi Wan Feng''s face became more and more terrifying. If she were to assume that this woman was not her mother at all, but the outer chamber surnamed Tie ¡­ This assumption is not impossible. Because ¨C there was nothing that Xi Jiu Er, this crazy woman, could not do.


    If not for her mother, then where was her birth mother?


    There was a birthmark on First Lady''s body. If the current ''First Lady'' did not have it, then this must be a fake! Xi Wan Feng suddenly stood up and brought the servants to the Xi Mansion.


    "mother!" Xi Wan Feng returned and rushed straight to First Lady''s room. Chun Hua was so frightened by Xi Wan Feng''s aura that she trembled, and straightened her back afterwards. What was there to be afraid of?


    "What''s the matter? Look at you being so reckless. Don''t be so reckless even when you''re an imperial concubine." Chun Hua didn''t have any other abilities now, but she was getting bolder and bolder. Just in time, she started to reprimand Xi Wan Feng from the bottom of her heart.


    Xi Wan Feng smiled slightly: "mother is right, I just bought some of mother''s favorite baths. Do you want me to give it a try?"


    Chun Hua took it and looked at it. The capital was the best. Everything was the best. It was not a remote place like hers at all. Just this kind of fragrant bath was impossible to buy.


    "Wow." How could Chun Hua endure it? She immediately got a maidservant to help him bathe ¡­ Xi Wan Feng looked at Xia Er and nodded, taking the chance that Chun Hua had gone in to follow him.


    "First Lady, Xia Er even learned a kind of beauty skills from the Duke Palaces. Today, will do it for First Lady." Xia Er tried to curry favor with her.


    "Great ¡­" Chun Hua immediately agreed when she heard the word ''beauty''.


    Roughly an hour later, First Lady walked out full of energy. His face was glowing red and his Qi and blood were extremely good. She was comfortable. "Aiya, this thing is good stuff. It''s really very comfortable to use."


    The last person to come out was Xia Er. Xia Er shook her head at Xi Wan Feng, and the look in her eyes immediately changed: "Really? Since you like it, I will bring more for mother. Xia Er, let''s go. mother, I still have things to do, so I will take my leave first. "


    "Go, go." Chun Hua was already happily standing in front of the copper mirror as she looked at herself in the mirror.


    The person Xi Wan Feng found asked him to find immediately was surnamed Tie, it was to bring him to see her. , this move is really audacious, to think that I would be able to call out to a dirty woman for a mother for so long, is this old thing even worthy of that? Xi Wan Feng was getting angrier and angrier, scolding Xi Jiu Er to no end.


    How could anything in the palace escape the eyes of Third Wife? Third Wife guessed that Xi Wan Feng had already suspected this fake ''First Lady''. Sooner or later, blood would be thicker than water.


    "Don''t worry, since Princess Laifu has arranged things like this, she will definitely think of such consequences, let her handle it herself." Third Wife laughed at himself, "You think that there is no one from the Princess Laifu in this house? "Haha ¡­"


    The Mother Fang said in a silent voice, "Madame, once you come to Fortune County and marry someone, you can be at ease."


    "Right." The reason she had control of the entire Xi Mansion was to wait for Xi Jiu Er''s wedding.


    Three days later, Xi Wan Feng received the Iron Master, the fat and short Iron Master was flattered. The other party was the Princess Xian, he was not an ordinary person.


    "Master Tie, I am looking for you to ask you a question, did you find your outer chamber, Chun Hua?"


    "Huh?" The Iron Master did not expect Xi Wan Feng to ask him about such a thing and quickly replied in fear, "We haven''t found him yet." Cold sweat started to pour down her forehead nonstop, because the tigress of the family had said that she would take care of her one day. Could it be that she was going to find the Princess Xian to support her today? She wondered what kind of relationship her female tiger had with the Princess Xian.


    "Is that so? Today, the Japanese wangfei wants to trouble the Iron Master with one matter ¡­ "


    "Princess, please do as you say. Even if this commoner has the guts, he won''t dare to bother you!" Master Tie said in fear.


    On this day, Xi Wan Feng took Chun Hua out shopping, saying that he wanted to buy jewelry for her. Chun Hua was someone who opened her eyes to money, once she heard about jewelry, she immediately followed Xi Wan Feng, leaving Xi Jiu Er''s words behind.


    "mother... Let''s go upstairs and have a seat. " Xi Wan Feng tightly held onto Chun Hua''s arm. Chun Hua wanted to struggle free, but she held him even tighter, making it impossible for him to do so. She anxiously said, "Let go of me."


    "What''s wrong with mother? Why are you talking to your daughter like that? Your daughter really does care about you." Xi Wan Feng pretended to be sad.


    Chun Hua suddenly had a bad feeling about this, this kind of feeling made her feel terrified. Xi Wan Feng who could only allow himself to be dragged upstairs, when she opened the door, she saw someone she could not be more familiar with - Old Tie! Suddenly, her head exploded.


    Chun Hua instinctively wanted to leave, but she was firmly stopped behind by Xia Er. She said with a smile that was not a smile: "First Lady, where are you going?"


    Xi Wan Feng grabbed Chun Hua, and threatened him fiercely: "You want to run, come in."


    Chun Hua was helpless, she could only go in, and when the time came, she would beat the crap out of him and refuse to admit it. After thinking it through, Chun Hua also gained some confidence, she obediently sat in front of Old Tie, and pretended not to know anything as she asked: "Feng''er, who is this person?"


    Slap! Xi Wan Feng slapped him across the face as he scolded, "Your Feng''er, look in the mirror and see if you dare to become my mother. Pah!"


    Chun Hua pursed her lips but did not say a word, she only chuckled, and could not tell what she was thinking.


    "Old Tie, do you know this woman?" Xi Wan Feng sat down and said to Old Tie: "This woman has disguised herself as my mother and became her."


    "AHH!" Without Xi Wan Feng''s reminder, she would not have known that the girl in front of her was her own outer chamber, Chun Hua. Looking at his dressing, he knew that his clothes were not fake at all.


    Chun Hua''s heart skipped a beat, and she smiled as she said, "I don''t know what you guys are talking about."


    "Don''t know?" It''s okay if you don''t know, you''ll know in a while. " Xi Wan Feng sneered: "Why, being my mother is fun, isn''t it? I don''t blame you, because all of this was arranged by that bitch Xi Jiu Er ~ "


    Chun Hua did not say anything, and continued speaking: "Just tell Xi Hong Sheng that everything was arranged by him, and I won''t do anything to you."


    Pui! Of course, Chun Hua would not believe what she had said, she knew who Xi Wan Rong was from the many people she had interacted with! She was a wolf in human skin when she glanced at Xi Jiu Er. Her eyes rolled around as she understood Xi Wan Feng''s intention. Xi Wan Feng simply wanted to coax her first before taking care of her.


    "Really? As long as you admit that all of this is what the Ninth Miss thinks, you will let me go? " Chun Hua asked in disbelief.


    "Of course." Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed with killing intent.


    Chun Hua laughed coldly in her heart, nodded her head and said: "Alright, a wise man submits to the circumstances. At that time, if your father asks me, I will tell him that it was Xi Jiu Er who asked me to do all of this."


    "Very good, very good!" Xi Wan Feng nodded his head, satisfied with Chun Hua''s cooperation, and said to Chun Hua: "When the time comes, we will take Xi Jiu Er down, and you will have your benefit."

 C170

    "Hehehe ¡­ Since you two have met, I will take my leave first." Xi Wan Feng sneered, then took the servant and left. She had already told Old Tie before, that Chun Hua was his woman. Old Tie definitely wanted Chun Hua to follow him back.


    "Chun Hua ¡ª" Old Tie immediately came over to do something illegal when she saw the person she was thinking about.


    Chun Hua took a step back and said, "What are you doing? Get out of the way, I have nothing to do with you. Hmph, that tigress of yours beat me to the ground and made me roll about, where are you? Dead? Your tigress took my house, where are you? I was forced to beg in the street, where are you? "Pfft, who would believe those pleasant sounding words now?"


    In the past, Chun Hua might have believed it, but now, she didn''t believe it at all!


    "Chun Hua, you must believe me. I love you, but there are many things I have to do." Old Tie said helplessly.


    Chun Hua coldly snorted: "Bullshit, you went off to play carefree and unfettered. "I saw you walk out of the Spring Festival ¡­"


    Old Tie''s lie was exposed on the spot, causing him to blush a little ¡­


    The door creaked open and a crisp female voice laughed, "This place is really lively. If you don''t mind, can I also sit down and enjoy the show?"


    Old Tie''s eyes lit up when he suddenly saw a young girl leisurely walking over. Her appearance was as elegant as a painting. She was a rare beauty.


    Chun Hua turned her head as if she had seen a ghost, "Ninth Miss."


    The one who came was Xi Jiu Er who was following Xi Wan Feng, and behind him was Liu Shui! Xi Jiu Er leisurely went in front of Old Tie and sat down, then looked at him. His eyes were too sharp, as if he could see through everything, causing Old Tie to feel like he could not hide anywhere.


    Ninth Miss? Could she be the ''Xi Jiu Er'' that Princess Xian spoke of? "


    "I think... this must be Old Tie. My big sister must be looking for you!" Xi Jiu Er smiled blandly: "Sigh, honestly speaking, my family has always disliked me since I was young, and always wants me to die, die, do you think I can die?"


    Old Tie was a little unable to keep up with Xi Jiu Er''s tempo, and did not know how to reply for a moment. Chun Hua, who was at the side, did have a look in her eyes, and this Ninth Miss had unknowingly followed them over.


    "Of course not." Chun Hua laughed.


    Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. Liu Shui took out eighty silver and put it on the seat, shaking the table. A stack of banknotes also shook Chun Hua and Old Tie.


    "This ¡­" Old Tie''s eyes widened to the point that they were about to turn blood-red ¡­


    "Here are 800,000 silver notes, split them between you and Chun Hua, from now on you will be partners!" Xi Jiu Er said with a straight face, as if the eight hundred thousand silver taels that were scattered in front of her was not worth mentioning. Chun Hua and Old Tie looked at each other, not daring to believe it!


    400,000 gold, she, Chun Hua, had worked hard as an outer room yet still did not have this amount ¡­


    Old Tie had calculated four hundred thousand silver taels that he would be able to get rid of that tigress from his family and find a new one that was young and beautiful!


    The two of them quickly calculated how they should spend the silver. At the same time, they also realized that they should cooperate with Xi Jiu Er! Chun Hua was the biggest beneficiary of all, the Xi Family ate and drank merrily, and even had a servant serving him, what was there to be unhappy about? Although Xi Hong Sheng hated her, it did not stop her from living her life.


    "Ninth Miss, just instruct me." Chun Hua glanced at Old Tie. She was too clear what kind of person Old Tie was! Seeing the rich opening their eyes!


    "Yes, Ninth Miss, just instruct me." Old Tie had bent over from four hundred thousand.


    "Actually, the matter is very simple ¡­ "Such as ¡­" Xi Jiu Er instructed.


    That night, when Xi Wan Feng saw that Chun Hua was fine, he gave her a signal but she pretended not to see, causing Xi Wan Feng to become suspicious of her. During the meal, Xi Wan Feng asked: "Father, mother''s taste has also changed, I am truly curious. Do you think that this mother is fake? Was it someone who swapped out to look for him? "


    Xi Hong Sheng was startled, it was only because Xi Wan Feng was married to the Prince Xian that he brought the First Lady out to walk around. The old Madame would turn a blind eye for the honor and disgrace of the Xi Family in the future, just look at his temper. In the period of time that Xi Wan Feng returned to the manor, there were some occasions that he needed to take care of.


    "Perhaps it is due to amnesia ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng didn''t want to talk about the First Lady, it was as if he was disgusted by her name, causing him to be unable to eat.


    "Father, even if a person has lost some of their memories, they still won''t change." Xi Wan Feng laughed: "I heard from someone that in this Great Thousand World, there are two people who look very similar. They look exactly the same."


    Xi Hong Sheng frowned: "What exactly do you want to say?"


    "Father ¡ª I suspect that she isn''t my mother at all. Someone found her to fake it." Xi Wan Feng''s eyes were still faintly discernable as they stared at Xi Jiu Er, but the latter was still eating her own food and didn''t seem to hear anything.


    B * tch, b * tch, keep it safe. I''ll see how you can hold your temper when your story is revealed. A cold smile appeared on Xi Wan Feng''s face!


    "Nonsense." Xi Hong Sheng put down his chopsticks and scolded him, "Did you have nothing to do the whole day?"


    Chun Hua seemed to have suffered from an enormous grievance, "Feng''er, you ¡­ I am your mother, even if I have lost my memories, our bloodlines are still the same. "


    Pui, who has the same bloodline as you? Xi Wan Feng stared at Chun Hua, telling her not to forget their previous promise. I hope she''s a little more tactful with herself...


    "Father, daughter suspected that she was not her daughter''s mother so she went to look for evidence. She really let her daughter find evidence!" Xi Wan Feng suddenly stood up and pointed at Chun Hua with a face full of anger: "She, she is not my mother, she is a woman from a foreign land, and because she looks so similar to mother, she has become a target for someone else to take advantage of."


    Xi Hong Sheng was extremely shocked, and Third Wife at the side did not seem to be silently watching the situation develop, cooperating with Xi Hong Sheng to reveal a shocked expression. In his heart, he thought, looking at Ninth Miss''s calm and composed expression, he knew that Xi Wan Feng was probably going to fall flat on his head again.


    "What?" Xi Hong Sheng stared at Chun Hua.


    Chun Hua shook her head like a rattle drum, "Feng''er, what nonsense are you talking about? Even if I changed, you still can''t say that I''m fake. "


    "Whether it''s a fake or not, we''ll know after a while. Father, our daughter has found a witness." Xi Wan Feng gave Xia Er a glance and he immediately walked out. In a short while, he brought over a fat middle-aged man, it was Old Tie.


    "This commoner greets Master Xi, and Princess Xian ¡­" Greetings Princess Laifu. " Old Tie bowed in succession, and Xi Wan Feng said: "Tell everyone, who is this woman''s true identity!"


    Old Tie thought about it carefully last night. He was eyeing the four hundred thousand taels of silver but he was worried about Xi Wan Feng''s identity. He tossed and turned, but suddenly realized that this Master was also a man. From a man''s perspective, his final fate would probably be decided by this Master.


    Old Tie still decided to accept the four hundred thousand gold coins for his victory in a dangerous situation. Didn''t we talk about cooperation? In the future, he and Chun Hua would work together, and would probably be able to get some good stuff.


    "Tell me, who is this woman?" Xi Hong Sheng shouted. If what Xi Wan Feng said was true, he would feel like he was wearing a green hat until the end. If other people knew, they would definitely be laughing so hard that their teeth would fall off.


    "Speak, tell everyone, this woman is the one you keep in the outer room ¡­" Xi Wan Feng knew that the angrier Xi Hong Sheng got, the more miserable his end would be. Hahaha ¡­ She couldn''t wait to see how Xi Jiu Er would get out of this calamity. After this event, she would let everyone know about this matter and see how venomous of a woman Xi Jiu Er was.


    "Speak!" Xi Hong Sheng scolded angrily.


    Old Tie''s body trembled as he hurriedly said, "This person is not my outer room ¡­" But it''s similar to my outer room. How can a lowly commoner like her be placed on the same level as First Lady Xi? " Indeed, not listening to Xi Wan Feng''s words was right!


    Xi Wan Feng suddenly screamed: "What did you say? Say that again! "


    Old Tie coordinated with him and said, "Concubine Xian''s mother is basically my outer chamber. It''s just a little similar."


    Xi Wan Feng stared at Old Tie for a long time. Old Tie also raised his head and spoke while enduring the pressure: "Princess Xian, everything this commoner said is the truth, not a single lie."


    "Feng''er, you, you hate mother this much? I can''t wait to use this kind of method to insult your mother? " Old Tie can sing, she went up on stage, clutching her chest, crying her heart out.


    "Don''t disgust me here. You are not my mother at all, and you ¡­ You lie. Old Tie, why did you lie? " Xi Wan Feng didn''t know why the situation would turn out like this, but he couldn''t help but shriek out.


    "The fact that this commoner spoke of it." Old Tie gritted his teeth and refused to let go.


    "You guys, one or two ¡­" Suddenly, an idea came to Xi Wan Feng''s mind. He sneered, and then left with a flick of his sleeve. Being disturbed by her, Xi Hong Sheng lost his mood to eat, and left in an extremely depressed mood.


    Xi Jiu Er was confused by Xi Wan Feng''s actions, but she understood immediately. She was afraid that Xi Wan Feng was looking for a way out of this situation, such as Old Tie''s wife.


    Everything seemed to be over. When Old Tie left, Xi Jiu Er asked Liu Xiang to pass on a message that Xi Jiu Er planned to pay another hundred thousand silver coins to buy his wife''s life. She didn''t dare to kill her wife, Old Tie, but for the sake of money, he had nothing to fear. Besides, he had long hated this tigress. Can you solve your own hatred, and can you have money to drink and not to do it?


    Old Tie saw his female tiger''s figure that day, and not only that, he also saw Xi Wan Feng. He immediately understood what was going on.


    He knew how much Old Tie''s wife hated Chun Hua. No, he couldn''t let this tigress ruin his good fortune. So ¡ª he followed quietly, seizing the opportunity to sneak into the room and place the poison in the tea!


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" Xia Er hurried over to report, "Royal Concubine, Old Tie''s wife is dead. "


    "What? Dead?" Xi Wan Feng opened his eyes wide, and coincidentally saw Xi Jiu Er''s figure, and immediately understood everything. It was her, it was this slut again.


    Why? Why did she always lose to this bitch Xi Jiu Er, why? Xi Wan Feng took a deep breath. Hmph, Xi Jiu Er, you bitch, we''ll see!

 C171

    "Xi Jiu Er, where exactly is my mother? "Tell me!" Xi Wan Feng was like an angry hen, all the feathers on his body exploded as he ordered, "I thought you would tell me the name of the Princess Xian."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled innocently: "Royal Concubine, maidservant doesn''t know what you''re talking about. I don''t understand it at all. Xi Wan Feng had always kept her image of a steady man, so no matter how much she hated Xi Jiu Er, she wouldn''t be angry for too long.


    This was the first time Xi Jiu Er saw such a furious person. She felt so good, so happy, so her expression became even more innocent. "Isn''t the mother just fine? Could it be that that person is not our mother? Heavens, where did our mother go? "


    "Pah, what your mother, that''s my mother. Xi Jiu Er, stop pretending to be stupid. Tell me, where did my mother go? " Xi Wan Feng almost wanted to go over and strangle Xi Jiu Er. Her mother must have been tortured to death by Xi Jiu Er at some place.


    "Hehe, with her attitude, you still want to be my mother, what''s the use of her!" Xi Jiu Er ridiculed: "That despicable, stealing, and repulsive mother of yours is not even worthy enough to carry my mother''s shoes."


    "Xi Jiu Er, I''ll tear your mouth apart today." Xi Wan Feng stepped forward to take care of Xi Jiu Er, but was hit by Xi Jiu Er who took the initiative to slap him. Xi Wan Feng screamed: "I am Princess Xian."


    "Princess Xian is nothing in my eyes." Xi Jiu Er laughed, "Even if you are the Empress, Xi Wan Feng, I still want you to die without a burial ground, let alone your mother."


    Xi Wan Feng said angrily: "Where did you hide my mother! Xi Jiu Er you slut, quickly return my mother to me!"


    "Aiya, your attitude makes me very angry. Whenever I get angry, I forget about things and can''t remember anything." Xi Jiu Er tenderly held her head, and waved: "Liu Shui, help me hold on, my head hurts, it hurts."


    "Xi Jiu Er!" Xi Wan Feng, who was behind Xi Jiu Er, was gritting her teeth. Not only was her chest filled with rage, she was also annoyed by something that she could do nothing about, making her want to die. She thought that Xi Jiu Er would be afraid of his identity as a Princess Xian, but in reality, Xi Jiu Er did not care about anything else.


    Wow, Xi Jiu Er, I don''t believe that if I can''t win, I will find the mother.


    Xi Wan Feng left the Xi Mansion, and the carriage was stopped by someone along the way. Xi Wan Feng shouted angrily: "Who is it?"


    "Princess, a young master with a strong personality." The coachman said.


    His surname was Zhong? Could it be the Zhong Family s of the Zhong Family? Xi Wan Feng lifted the curtain and looked outside, immediately becoming even more furious at Third Wife. Seeing Zhong Tang Jun, she could not help but think that her innocent body was given to this man, everything was designed by Xi Jiu Er that bitch.


    "Princess Xian?" Zhong Tang Jun cupped his hands and said: "This humble one is Zhong Tang Jun, little sister Zhong Yue He has something to give to wangfei, I invite wangfei to take a seat."


    Xi Wan Feng did not place Zhong Family in her eyes. Zhong Yue He didn''t have much of a relationship with her, what did she have to give him? Xi Wan Feng rejected her offer, "This wangfei is tired today. If you have anything to send back to the Prince Xian''s Mansion, please do so."


    "Princess." Zhong Tang Jun said anxiously: "I have something very important to give to my wangfei, please give me some time, I won''t disturb her for long."


    What was it? Xi Wan Feng thought about it and decided to go down to take a look. The servant helped her off the carriage, and stood in front of Zhong Tang Jun as she said coldly, "What is it that you want to show this wangfei?"


    Xi Wan Feng was dressed extravagantly, and if a woman were to carefully dress up, she would easily stand out from the masses. If Xi Wan Feng were to carefully dress up, she would appear even more beautiful than before. Bitterness rose in Zhong Tang Jun''s heart even as he was stunned. His attitude was resolute, "I can''t let anyone else know about this, I''ll have to trouble wangfei with this ¡­"


    In an elegant room, the moment Xi Wan Feng sat down, he impatiently said: "What exactly is it, quickly take it out."


    Zhong Tang Jun glanced at Xia Er, and Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "Go out and guard it, don''t let anyone near."


    "Yes."


    The soundproofing here didn''t seem to be too good. A woman and a man came out from next door laughing. Xi Wan Feng said in a low voice: "What are you going to show me?"


    Zhong Tang Jun also cooperated in a low voice: "The woman who was with me that night, was it you?"


    Xi Wan Feng did not think that Zhong Tang Jun would say such a thing. His face turned extremely ugly. Since Zhong Tang Jun already knew that it was his, then there was no point in trying to hide it, as he threatened Zhong Tang Jun word by word: "surnamed Zhong, I hope you can shatter this secret into your stomach."


    Zhong Tang Jun did not care about Xi Wan Feng''s threat at all. A smile emerged on his face, and he impatiently pulled Xi Wan Feng''s arm while he was ecstatic: "It''s really you? I, I like you, I can never forget you? "You ¡­"


    "Let go!" Xi Wan Feng spat out a few words, forcefully retracting his hand and stared fiercely at Zhong Tang Jun: "What are you trying to do? If anyone else were to know about this, I would kill you immediately. " Thinking about it, how could Zhong Tang Jun only realize it now? How did he know it was him?


    "Don''t worry, even if I die, I won''t let anyone else know." Zhong Tang Jun stammered, "Wan Feng, you ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng squinted his eyes. What''s wrong with this man? Was it to him? Xi Wan Feng frowned: "Did you just say that you like me?"


    "Yes ¡­" "Unfortunately, I discovered it too late, otherwise I would have definitely married you." Zhong Tang Jun was extremely regretful.


    "Like me? You must be lying, all of you men are just trying to do something behind your back. Who knows if what you''re saying is true or false! " Xi Wan Feng spat in his heart. Pfft, marrying you, who the hell are you? Even if he dies, he wouldn''t marry Zhong Tang Jun, a disgusting man.


    "Wan Feng, believe me, I really do like you. I, I, will do anything for you. " Zhong Tang Jun said anxiously, he really wanted to cut out his own heart for Xi Wan Feng to see.


    Xi Wan Feng''s eyes lit up, "Is what you said true?"


    "Of course it''s true." Zhong Tang Jun hurriedly nodded.


    helping him take care of Xi Jiu Er was the best thing to do, mm... Xi Wan Feng asked somewhat shyly: "Are you speaking the truth?"


    "Of course it''s true." Zhong Tang Jun was an expert in the art of romance, so this discovery was obviously of great interest to him. To Zhong Tang Jun, this was a discovery that made him feel extremely flattered.


    The sound coming from the other side of the door had at some point in time begun to sound different, causing Zhong Tang Jun and Xi Wan Feng''s hearts to pound and blush. Xi Wan Feng was at a loss on what to do, and her face had also started to turn red. Suddenly, Zhong Tang Jun felt as if he had eaten the guts of a leopard, and went up to Xi Wan Feng and hugged him tightly: "You, what are you doing?"


    Xi Wan Feng was frightened, angry and embarrassed, but slowly lost himself in the process. She had very little experience in this area, and thus, was able to learn the first forbidden technique. Indeed, not long later, she met Zhong Tang Jun, who was a man with vast experience and powerful abilities.


    Not long later, a peculiar aura permeated the air.


    Next door, Liu Shui said in a low voice: "Miss, it''s done."


    After cleaning up properly, Zhong Tang Jun swore his loyalty to Xi Wan Feng, treating him like a queen. Xi Wan Feng said softly, "Now that I am already your man, my reputation had been ruined by that bitch Xi Jiu Er and I almost lost my life. You must avenge me."


    Xi Jiu Er listened quietly from next door, not showing much of an expression.


    "Don''t worry, I will definitely avenge you. If you have any orders, just say them to Wan Rong. I won''t be afraid even if I climb the mountain of blades or descend the sea of flames." Zhong Tang Jun swore calmly.


    Xi Wan Feng despised him in his heart, and naturally did not believe in the credibility of Zhong Tang Jun''s words. He said: "Alright, right now, I have something for you to do."


    "Yes."


    "Follow Xi Jiu Er, see where he went ¡­" Xi Wan Feng planned to use the method of tracking Xi Jiu Er to find the First Lady, and believed that since Xi Jiu Er hated the First Lady this much, he would definitely go to the place where the First Lady was hidden.


    "Alright." Zhong Tang Jun felt that this was simple, if he were to clash head on with Xi Jiu Er, he would be a little weak. Xi Jiu Er seemed to be a woman, and based on his experience with women, she knew that Xi Jiu Er was not an easy opponent.


    "Also, find a man to deal with Xi Jiu Er. It would be best if he could get her pregnant." Xi Wan Feng always failed in this move, if it was someone else, he didn''t know whether he would succeed or not.


    "Alright, I have a friend who is an expert in this aspect. Rest assured."


    Xi Wan Feng and Zhong Tang Jun left one after the other. Xi Jiu Er suddenly smiled. Xi Wan Feng, if you keep thinking about your mother like this, how can I let your mother face you guys again?


    "Liu Shui, let''s go." Xi Jiu Er stood up and went to Wei Guogong Palace. When she passed the Imperial Jade Seal to Wei Guogong, Mount Tai had always been right in front of her. Wei Guogong''s expression did not change, no, her entire face was gloomy and uncertain, "Jiu Er, where did you find it?"


    "Xi Family." Xi Jiu Er played with the Imperial Jade Seal and laughed, "Grandfather, don''t forget, you said that you would use this Imperial Jade Seal to destroy Xi Family''s family, Xi Hong Sheng''s bones are turned into ashes."


    "Jiu Er..." Wei Guogong nodded: "Okay."


    "Hehehe ¡­" Xi Jiu Er leaned on her chair. Once this matter was over, she would be able to relax and roam the world. It''s good to think about it...


    "Jiu Er, what method will you think of to protect yourself?" Wei Guogong said.


    "Feigned death." Xi Jiu Er didn''t even want to answer. This method was quick and simple, when the time came, she would live her life of incest. Eh, why is Grandfather''s face so ugly?


    "Is, is there anything wrong with this method, Grandfather?" Xi Jiu Er asked suspiciously.


    Wei Guogong said full of spirit: "Of course not, you still have to continue to inherit my family property. When you die from fraud, who will I hand over my family business to? "No, let''s find another way."


    "Grandpa ¡­"


    "No matter what, I can''t say anything about this. Your grandfather only has your mother as his only daughter, and now that your mother has left, I just want to give you these as compensation to your mother and you. " Wei Guogong''s eyes reddened. Every time she mentioned the matter of his daughter and granddaughter, she felt extremely guilty.

    Marriage! self-introduction


    "Then... Grandfather, what do you think we should do? " This time, Xi Jiu Er was confused, after thinking about it for a few times, he still could not think of a good way to solve her problem, so she asked: "Grandfather, do you have any good suggestions?"


    "Yes!" Wei Guogong knew that Xi Jiu Er was extremely intelligent, and knew that her method of faking her death was useless in her heart, but she immediately thought of a good idea. She absolutely could not let Xi Jiu Er see any flaws and let him out, if she let Xi Jiu Er see through it, he might as well use her kinship to move Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er cared for him so much, and would most likely not disobey him.


    "What idea?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    "It means we''re getting married." Endure, endure it, you have to endure it no matter what. Wei Guogong said with a serious face: "I already said that the water poured out by your married daughter, when the time comes, you won''t be able to burn this matter on your body."


    Xi Jiu Er was a little taken aback. "Marriage?"


    "Yeah, getting married. Isn''t that a good idea?" Look, what a great way, this way he would be able to see Jiu Er getting married in her lifetime, maybe even her great-grandson. How good is it?


    "Grandfather? Is there no such way? " Xi Jiu Er asked.


    "Is there any other way for you to openly inherit everything that belongs to me?" This time, Wei Guogong was unhappy. Was this damn girl planning to not get married? He said angrily: "Don''t tell me you want me to give you everything that belongs to your mother to someone else?"


    "Uh, Grandfather, you can hand it over to the Emperor ¡­" Leave it to the people. " Xi Jiu Er licked her dry lips and said: "This way, everyone will be able to remember Wei Guogong."


    "You damned girl, the family that I worked so hard to get from me is naturally meant to be passed on to them. It''s not like I don''t have descendants. Furthermore, let''s take a look at the capital. Does anyone else remember my Wei Guogong? " Wei Guogong was sad and angry, sad that she did not remember, angry that Xi Jiu Er, this damned girl, had angered him to death.


    "Grandfather ¡­" Is, is there really no other way? " Xi Jiu Er asked, unwilling to give up.


    "Is there any other way?" That''s good. " Wei Guogong looked at the Imperial Jade Seal and said, "Leave this matter to me. Don''t worry, my good grandfather won''t let anyone bully you."


    "Grandpa ¡­" Xi Jiu Er refused to give up and said, "Maybe there are other ways."


    "If you continue to speak such nonsense, I''ll immediately die for you to see. Do you believe me?" The Wei Guogong was furious: "You want to go against me, don''t you? "Isn''t it?"


    "Eh ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er saw that the Wei Guogong was angry, and quickly waved her hands, "No, no, I completely listen to Grandfather''s words."


    "Hmph, that''s more like it!" Wei Guogong laughed: "Don''t worry, Xi Hong Sheng won''t even think about touching your marriage."


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er was already listening intently. Marriage? How could she be married? She did not want to get married, she would faked her death when the Xi Family affair began. But today, Wei Guogong''s attitude was so unyielding, she had already started to figure out which young master''s character was good, which young master was good at learning, and which young master had good backing.


    Xi Jiu Er did not want to disturb his elder''s temper, so she left. Married... Xi Jiu Er was dejected. Unfortunately, Zhong Tang Jun and a handsome young master appeared in front of Xi Jiu Er.


    Hmph, the one who vented his anger was here!


    "Cousin." Zhong Tang Jun stepped forward and said passionately: "Cousin sister, where are you going?"


    "What''s the matter?" Xi Jiu Er asked coldly.


    "I''m fine, I''m fine. I just saw you come over to say hello. We were just about to go to this restaurant to eat. How about you let us eat together with your cousin?" Zhong Tang Jun laughed and said.


    His good friend was also one of Zhong Tang Jun''s people who were carrying out his plan. Although he looked pretty handsome, his eyes were staring at Xi Jiu Er with malicious intent, as though Xi Jiu Er was a lady without clothes, looking at him with interest.


    Xi Jiu Er felt disgusted in her heart, and sent a look at the furious Liu Shui beside him: "Ok, I just so happened to be angry too."


    "Hahaha, come, come! Let''s go together, let''s go together!" Zhong Tang Jun pointed to the man and said: "Cousin sister, this is my good friend, Sir Zhu."


    "Hello, young master pig." Xi Jiu Er laughed politely.


    When they went upstairs, Zhong Tang Jun looked at Sir Zhu from a place that Xi Jiu Er couldn''t see: How was it? He''s not a bad person, is he? Young Master Zhu raised his eyebrows, smiling widely. Especially his flabby skin, it must feel really good when he touched it.


    Xi Jiu Er pretended not to see anything, and not only did sshe not order the most expensive dishes, he even ordered a whole table. This meal was invited by Zhong Tang Jun, and seeing that the meat on the table was extremely painful, she could only force a smile: "Come, come, you guys eat first, I''ll go get some tea."


    "Go, go." Sir Zhu gave Zhong Tang Jun his first look and understood what he meant. Xi Jiu Er pretended not to know, as all these things were for Liu Shui to eat.


    "Eat."


    Liu Shui was not one to be courteous, he immediately sat down and swept his gaze, and even Young Master Zhu''s eyes almost bulged out. This was the first time he saw a servant eating with his master, let alone that servant. Seeing the speed of his hands, and seeing that mouth, it really was better to see than to hear.


    Liu Shui was so captivated by the food, when Zhong Tang Jun came over, he had already finished most of the dishes on the table. He almost overturned the tea in his hand that had been added with medicine.


    "This... "This ¡­" Did he want to say you were a pig? Liu Shui burped, "Princess, can we bring back anything that we can''t finish? This east slope elbow is delicious. "


    "Sure." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Cough ¡­" Come, come, come, come. This restaurant has a unique type of tea. Zhong Tang Jun smiled as he poured some tea, Xi Jiu Er tasted it and drank it. Liu Shui also drank it down, and even smacked his lips: "Is there more? "It tastes so good."


    "Ah!" "Yes." Zhong Tang Jun immediately gave the two of them another cup ¡­ What happened next was very simple. Both Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui fainted. Zhong Tang Jun said: "Brother Zhu, the rest is up to you."


    "Hee hee ¡­" Young Master Zhu carried Xi Jiu Er by the waist and walked towards the neighboring room. Zhong Tang Jun looked at Liu Shui who was snoring in his sleep and felt extremely disgusted, so he got up and left. He had used ten times the amount of this medicine, so unless Xi Jiu Er didn''t drink it, she wouldn''t wake up.


    Once Zhong Tang Jun left, Xi Jiu Er followed as well, leaving behind Sir Zhu who was afflicted with psychedely-medicine, calling her a beauty while hugging his pillow. Liu Shui stepped forward and kicked him, scolding him.


    Zhong Tang Jun had thought that things would work out, and he was so happy that he reported it to Xi Wan Feng. This Zhong Tang Jun still had some skills, he actually managed to complete the task. Hahaha ¡­ Xi Jiu Er, just you wait.


    Because of this, Xi Hong Sheng specially went to Xi Jiu Er to discuss this matter. Xi Jiu Er helplessly said, "This is Grandfather''s decision, so daughter doesn''t have any right to interfere."


    "Hehe, when the time comes, Father will also find you a better one. Father''s taste will definitely not be any better than yours." How could Xi Hong Sheng give up on the Wei Guogong''s wealth? She busily ran to find someone, this person must be someone Xi Hong Sheng could control.


    "Princess ¡­" Servant doesn''t know if it''s possible to have a plan ¡­ " Liu Xiang said mysteriously.


    "What method?" Liu Xiang normally did not use her brain, but if she did, she would definitely have a good idea. Xi Jiu Er was interested, maybe this girl could actually solve her problem.


    "Princess, why don''t we do this? You find a man and pretend to get married. Princess, you''re so smart. Isn''t it easy to get away from you? " Liu Xiang''s idea was actually unintentionally learnt from the ex-sister-in-law when she went there. In order to raise the price, the ex-sister-in-law used this method.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes lit up, clapping his hands: "Liu Xiang, your method is good, this method is really good." [Narcissist]: There are many ways to go and leave each other. Can''t you just go on living your own life after that?


    Liu Xiang chuckled, "It''s good that the princess thinks so."


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and smiled: "Alright, then let''s go and see who meets these conditions."


    "Mn, I can''t be too ugly, too lecherous, and too incompetent ¡­" Liu Xiang moved her fingers, and Xi Jiu Er agreed. After all, if the two of them were to stay together for a period of time, she had to be more careful with her luck.


    On this day, the Wei Guogong looked at the name list with an unhappy expression. She placed the name list on the table in disdain, "Look at what kind of stuff these are.


    Old Zhang passed a cup of tea and said, "Prince Fu, don''t be angry. Pick a good one, there will definitely be some good ones."


    "Yes."


    "Prince Fu, a young master is looking for you."


    "Looking for me?" Prince Fu was startled, after he left, he rarely came to visit. Other than his good friends, there was no one else looking for him.


    Prince Fu walked into the hall with his hands behind his back, and his eyes lit up. Yo, this young master has an extraordinary bearing, with an air of inviolability in his eyes. Well, not bad, not bad. But look better, what''s the point of saying a man looks better than a woman.


    "Mhmm!" Wei Guogong pretended to cough, and the man slowly put down her tea before standing up and bowing: "This humble one greets Wei Guogong." It was neither humble nor haughty, neither charming nor charming. It could be said to be a graceful manner.


    Wei Guogong had a good first impression of him, mm, mm! Xiao Feng? I don''t know you. You call yourself a servant, then you don''t have an official''s name anymore? Wei Guogong asked: "You are?"


    "I''m a doctor. I heard that the Prince Fu was looking for a husband for a princess, so I came here to recommend myself." The one who came was Feng Qing Cheng. When she found out that the Wei Guogong had found a husband for Xi Jiu Er, she did not know why but something happened all of a sudden.


    "Cough, cough ¡­" Wei Guogong was shocked, since when did marriage become a marriage proposal? When did young people become like this? Emma, that''s scary.


    Wei Guogong calmed herself down and said: "You are just a small doctor, and my granddaughter is a princess. Your family is not right, and getting married together would not be happy."


    "I don''t agree with this. It is important to be the right person, but it is also important to be in love with each other. Even though I am a doctor, I am single-minded towards the princess and value her in everything. I will love her, respect her, protect her, bring her back with me with my white hair, and unite with her forever. "


    The Wei Guogong was startled, then coldly snorted: "You''re speaking quite easily, Jiu Er likes luxury, you don''t have any money, so how can you afford it? Jiu Er wants five or six servants to serve him, do you have any silver? "


    "Yes, I will definitely let the princess live a good life. If I marry the princess, I will give her 10 miles of red makeup." Feng Qing Cheng said in a serious tone.

 C173

    "Hmph, your words are quite pleasant to listen to. Who knows if you''re going to say something like that or not?" Wei Guogong saw the sincerity in his eyes that not only moved his, but also made his, as a man. But Jiu Er was her only granddaughter, what if this man knew how to act? What if she bullied her granddaughter? What if she were to seize all her property and chase Jiu Er out?


    "What should I do to make Prince Fu agree?" As long as they could take down the Prince Fu, this marriage would be more than half successful. Feng Qing Cheng''s sincerity, was also the kind of sincerity that moved Wei Guogong. But in the end, there were times where one''s judgement was wrong. Wei Guogong said, "Alright, if you kneel at Wei Guogong Palace for three days and three nights, I can consider it."


    "Alright." Without a word, Feng Qing Cheng knelt in front of the entrance of Wei Guogong Palace, immediately drawing the attention of the crowd. This matter only reached Xi Jiu Er''s ears on the second day. She asked in astonishment, "What?"


    She immediately rushed over and saw the motionless Feng Qing Cheng kneeling at the entrance. She walked over to him and glanced at him: "What are you doing, get up.


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his head and looked at Xi Jiu Er, then looked down at the lines on the stone floor. En, the pattern was a little like a rooster''s, a little like a cat. It seemed really interesting, but it seemed like a good time.


    "I told you to get up." Xi Jiu Er walked up to him and pulled his sleeves. Feng Qing Cheng did not move at all, she raised her head and gently whispered: "Stop messing around, I''m serious now."


    What? What did he say? Stop messing around? Xi Jiu Er pursed his lips and said angrily: "Even if you kneel here and die, I won''t agree to marry you!"


    Feng Qing Cheng did not move, he did not understand. To him, as long as Wei Guogong admitted to it, Xi Jiu Er would not be able to say anything. That was why he wouldn''t listen to Xi Jiu Er. Furthermore, he raised his head and said: "What does it mean for a man to give up his dignity to kneel here?"


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and stared at Feng Qing Cheng, then walked into the Duke''s Palace, because Xi Jiu Er had also realized this point. Wei Guogong laughed: "What do you think about that brat at the door? "He''s quite a nice person, isn''t he?"


    "Who''s not bad? I hate men who are good-looking the most. Tell me, why do you think a man is so good-looking?" "It''s not like I can eat." Xi Jiu Er''s Fire Avenue.


    Yo? Wei Guogong could smell something different, "But can it please the eyes?"


    "Pleasant eyes? "Then I might as well just enjoy admiring the flowers. They are even more pleasing to the eyes and even different types." Xi Jiu Er became gloomy: "Grandfather, do you know that you mustn''t be fooled by the appearance of this kind of person?"


    "Oh? In fact, the appearance was not decided by him, so we can only ignore it. " The Wei Guogong replied with an experienced tone: "What we want to see are the inner workings. I feel that this guy is a pretty good person. I''ll try and marry you to him if I can. Although his status is a bit low, with my grandfather here, I guarantee that he will be able to rise to the top.


    "No way!" Xi Jiu Er lost control. "Grandfather, no."


    "Why?" Wei Guogong was curious. This granddaughter of his was usually calm and collected when doing things, why did this Xiao Feng sound so weird when she was mentioned?


    "He is not a good person, he, he bullied Jiu Er before." Xi Jiu Er stomped her feet. This Xiao Feng was not easy to deal with, if she really married him, it would definitely be troublesome for She Li. She didn''t want it.


    "Is that so? How can I bully you? " The Wei Guogong was extremely curious, no matter how he looked at it, Xi Jiu Er was bullying her? They always say fighting is a form of love, these two ¡­ "Mhmm ¡­"


    Seeing that Wei Guogong had already returned to the Wei Guogong and misunderstood something, Xi Jiu Er immediately tried to defend herself, "Master, you misunderstood me, there is nothing going on between him and I."


    The more he described, the darker his words got. The smile on Wei Guogong''s face grew wider, but Xi Jiu Er was powerless as he angrily ran over to find Feng Qing Cheng. "Hey, my grandfather said to wake you up, you can go back now."


    When did Xi Jiu Er become such a fool? Did he think she would believe it? Not at all.


    "You, you." Xi Jiu Er said angrily: "I will count as grandfather''s agreement, I will also not agree, just give up now."


    Feng Qing Cheng remained unmoved and didn''t even raise his eyelids a bit. He was both angry and shocked as he glared at him and coldly snorted before returning to his room. Feng Qing Cheng knelt for an entire three days. Other than drinking water, he did not eat anything else.


    "This kid has this kind of perseverance. Not bad, not bad at all." Wei Guogong praised.


    "Hmph, it''s just superficial martial arts. Who doesn''t know how to use martial arts?" Xi Jiu Er sneered.


    "Jiu Er, why do you hate this Young Master? Tell me, how did she bully you? Grandfather will definitely help you vent your anger. " Wei Guogong asked with interest.


    "¡­" Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips.


    "Jiu Er, Grandfather really thinks that this man is not bad. Grandfather hopes for your happiness. Grandfather is also a man. Men, don''t worry, Grandfather won''t casually find a man to marry you off. " Wei Guogong left with her hands behind her back. Xi Jiu Er was frustrated.


    Xi Jiu left in a hurry. Hmph, she didn''t care about this. If it was really this man, then she would have accepted it. She had many ways to make Wei Guogong disagree, but she didn''t want to use them to hurt Wei Guogong. At this moment, she was the only family member in the world that was related to her by blood.


    When Xi Jiu Er returned to the Wei Guogong Palace, Yun Qing Ran also came and pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand: "What happened? What''s wrong, you''re getting married? "


    "Hur hur, it should be my turn." Xi Jiu Er said, but his heart was extremely bitter.


    Yun Qing Ran had nothing to say now. That was true, since Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong were already married, it should be Xi Jiu Er''s turn, right?


    When Yun Qing Ran left, Xi Jiu Er did not expect to see her again, so she was puzzled. Why did she come all the time for? How boring. Xi Jiu Er had a bad temper today and couldn''t be bothered to care about Xi Wan Feng, but she still had one more thing to do.


    "Liu Shui, come over here. There''s something I need you to do."


    "Yes."


    That night, Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui out of the Xi Mansion, while Zhong Tang Jun had already sent people to follow him. Before Xi Jiu Er even returned, he had already gone into the Xi Mansion to inform Xi Wan Feng that Xi Jiu Er had gone to a courtyard, and still had not come out.


    Oh? Xi Wan Feng let Zhong Tang Jun scout again.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished what she needed to do, she went back to take a nap and check on how Qiu Qiu was doing. Xi Wan Feng waited left and right, the news finally came, Zhong Tang Jun said that there was a Madame inside, he said that she was sick.


    The mother, was definitely the mother. Xi Wan Feng determined that the person whose legs were inconvenient was First Lady and immediately became excited. After Xia Er looked outside for a while, she closed the door and said softly, "Esteemed wangfei, Servant heard from the servant that the princess wants the old granny to quickly take action. Otherwise, when the time comes ¡­"


    "What do you mean?" Xi Wan Feng frowned.


    "Servant didn''t understand either." Xia Er frowned.


    Xi Wan Feng sneakily brought Xia Er to the courtyard where an old woman was. Seeing a cloaked woman standing outside the door, the old woman asked in confusion, "Who are you?"


    "Bang!" Xia Er abruptly pushed open the door and said: "Get out of the way."


    The old woman was so scared that she trembled and obediently stepped aside. "You, what do you want to do?"


    "Tell me, where is the sick old Madame?" Xia Er gave the old granny a ruthless kick. The wife walked over and said while holding onto her chest: "Yes, in the room. "


    "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and bring us in." Xia Er shouted.


    The old granny quickly stood up and brought Xi Wan Feng and Xia Er into the room. The place was completely dark, and there was a terrible stench coming from it. Xi Wan Feng walked in and covered his nose. There was a skinny woman lying on the bed, feeling like she was about to die at any moment.


    "mother!" Xi Wan Feng cried. He covered his nose and almost vomited.


    The person on the bed spoke out like a mosquito, Xi Wan Feng''s eyes turned red, Xi Jiu Er, I will kill you!


    When did the old woman disappear? She had snuck in by herself and muttered, "How disgusting. It''s best if we finish this quickly and leave. If we don''t, we''ll be dead for sure."


    Her figure did not seem to notice anyone else in the room, it was only when she reached beside the bed that she noticed Xi Wan Feng. She was so shocked that she was tongue-tied and did not respond. Xi Wan Feng held onto the servant''s hand, the servant was so scared that her soul was gone, her body trembled: "Who, who are you? Great Miss. "


    The servant girl''s eyes were even bigger than the bell, as though she had seen a ghost. The expression on Xi Wan Feng''s assassin''s face was even more terrifying than a ghost''s, scaring the servant girl to the point of numbing her scalp.


    "What? Did you accidentally see me?" Xi Wan Feng did not laugh under the skin, and continued to hit the servant girl, kicking her again and again, scolding: "Xi Jiu Er you little bitch''s lackey, watch how I take care of you today, you actually treat mother like this, if I kill you, I will kill you for sure, Xi Jiu Er, we will see."


    The maidservant was beaten up until he cried out loudly, "Great Miss, please spare me! Servant never thought of killing Madame! Never thought of that ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng scolded him: "Was what you said when you entered the door fake? Do you think I''m deaf? "


    "Great Miss ¡­" The maidservant was in so much pain that he could no longer make a sound.


    "Xia Er, throw her out and kill her." Xi Wan Feng said angrily. Xia Er quickly pulled at her hands and advised: "Esteemed wangfei, do not act rashly. The princess is still waiting for the servant girl to reply, if anything were to happen and the other side discovers it, it would be terrible."


    What Xia Er said was right. If this slut Xi Jiu Er knew that she had discovered the secret herself, there would be many things that would be hard to do in the future.


    "You, come here." Xi Wan Feng took a breath and waved for the servant to come over.


    The maidservant hurriedly crawled over and fearfully lowered his head and cried, "Esteemed wangfei, spare me, spare me! Servant was also ordered by the princess, I didn''t do it on purpose!"


    Xi Wan Feng was disturbed by her crying and she scolded: "She''s crying and cutting off your tongue."


    As expected, the maid stopped crying and knelt on the ground, sobbing.


    "Go back and tell that bitch if she''s dead." Xi Wan Feng said in a heavy voice, "Then, find an opportunity in the middle of the night to come to my courtyard. I have something for you to do."


    "Yes ~ ~ Yes ~ ~" The maidservant could only helplessly say.

 C174

    After the servant left, Xi Wan Feng immediately found someone to carry the person out of the courtyard. After a trip, the sky had already brightened up, Xi Wan Feng went back to the Xi Mansion to shower and sleep on the bed.


    On the other side, the servant girl was trembling with fear and she told Xi Jiu Er everything that had happened. She was shocked that Xi Jiu Er had guessed correctly, even if the wangfei had said everything, it would still be accurate.


    "You did well in this matter. You can do whatever she wants you to do next. I have other ways to deal with it." Xi Jiu Er said: "After this matter is over, your family of three will be free. "


    The maidservant became excited. Even though this matter was risky, he could still lose his life. However, the family of three could regain their freedom. From then on, they were no longer servants. For a person like them, who had been servants all their lives, they were truly fortunate. Everything was worth it. He only hoped that this matter could be settled as soon as possible. of


    The second day, the servant stumbled into Xi Wan Feng''s room in the middle of the night. She was so scared that her entire body was trembling.


    Xi Wan Feng had a load on his mind, and because he had thought of a way to discipline Xi Jiu Er, he was very happy, so he asked lazily: "What''s wrong?"


    "Princess, the princess wants to silence us by killing us." The servant was so scared that her face turned white, Xi Wan Feng sneered: "That''s normal, you are no longer of use to her, what use is she keeping you for?"


    "Princess, please save Servant." The maidservant said.


    "Don''t worry, I have something for you to do. As for what it is, I will give you instructions in a few days'' time. In these few days, protect yourself well!" Xi Wan Feng said indifferently. At the same time, there was another piece of news that told Xi Jiu Er that Xi Wan Feng was pregnant!


    "Servant isn''t sure if she''s pregnant either. Seeing her puking nonstop and not puking out anything, just like a woman who is pregnant." Liu Shui recalled.


    Oh? That means Xi Wan Feng is pregnant? Does this child belong to the Prince Xian or Zhong Tang Jun? When he thought about the child being from the Prince Xian, an indescribable feeling surged up in Xi Jiu Er''s heart. It was as if he had been stuck in the throat of a thorn, and couldn''t even spit out a single word.


    "Liu Shui, get someone in the kitchen to prepare some sour food. Tell the kitchen not to tell anybody. " Xi Jiu Er suddenly came up with a plan.


    Liu Shui followed his instructions and went into the kitchen. When Liu Shui left, he asked curiously: "Mom, what did Liu Shui tell you just now?"


    "Nothing." The relationship between the Third Wife and the Great Miss is not bad. If there is anything the Third Wife needs to do, the Third Wife must listen to the orders of the Ninth Miss. In order to protect herself, she had to listen to Liu Shui''s orders and not say anything.


    Xia Er was suspicious, what was going on, could it be that there was some secret that was shameful? Since Xi Jiu Er had her secrets sealed, it would not be easy for him to reveal it, so Xia Er waited.


    She then realised that the food that the kitchen was cooking for Xi Jiu Er was mainly sour fish, pickled pork, etc. She was curious in her heart, why did Ninth Miss suddenly like to eat sour food? And you like it to be kept secret? Could it be ¡­


    Xia Er had an idea and immediately ran over to find Xi Wan Feng.


    "Wangfei, wangfei ¡­?" Xia Er shouted excitedly as if she had discovered some secret.


    "Princess, Servant has discovered the secret of the Princess Laifu." Xia Er said excitedly.


    Xi Wan Feng immediately became excited: "Quickly tell me, what secret have you discovered?"


    "It''s very possible that Princess Laifu is pregnant." Xia Er told Xi Wan Feng everything she saw in the kitchen. Xi Wan Feng was shocked, and fearfully slapped her hands: "Alright, now we have finally brought down that bitch."


    Xia Er nodded.


    "That''s not right, it''s better for us to confirm this matter over and over again. What if it''s a scheme by that slut?" Xi Wan Feng didn''t lose out to Xi Jiu Er by one or two things; each of them was a blood lesson. Just in case, it would be better to investigate it thoroughly.


    "Go take a look, did that bitch finish all the food?" Xi Wan Feng instructed.


    Xia Er immediately went to take a look, Xi Wan Feng''s heart was thumping hard. It was really great, if this slut was pregnant, she would definitely find a great opportunity to make a fool out of her.


    "Princess, Xia Er is sneaking around the courtyard entrance ¡­" Liu Shui whispered.


    Xi Jiu Er ate the food Liu Shui had secretly bought from the others: "Is that so? Tell her everything she wants to know. "


    Liu Shui''s brain was not a goosebumps either, he understood most of Xi Jiu Er''s intentions, and nodded: "Servant knows what to do now."


    "Princess, the taste of the fish is quite good." Liu Xiang took a bite of the fish and said with a smile.


    "If you want to eat it, then eat it." Xi Jiu Er said absentmindedly.


    Xia Er looked at the maids who were cleaning up the tableware, and came out. All of the food had been eaten, and there were not many left. Xia Er immediately reported it to Xi Wan Feng happily.


    "Princess, we''ve finished eating!"


    Xi Wan Feng squinted his eyes, he still could not believe in Xi Jiu Er, and planned to give it a try himself, and said: "Go and tell Xi Jiu Er, tell him that I''ll treat her to a few drinks at my place."


    "Yes." Xia Er accepted the orders and returned to report in a while. She said, "Princess, when Servant went there, he heard that the princess was vomiting."


    "Mm ¡­" All the signs indicated that Xi Jiu Er was pregnant, but she was waiting to see if she was really pregnant tonight.


    At night, Xi Jiu Er''s face was pale white, from time to time she would cover her mouth, not wanting to speak. She was in no mood to answer the question. "Is there anything that the wangfei wants to talk to me about?"


    "Hehe, it''s nothing. I just wanted you to come over and have a drink with me!" Xi Wan Feng''s eyes couldn''t wait to see through Xi Jiu Er, and she asked softly. "Little sister, what''s wrong? "Is she not feeling well?"


    Xi Jiu Er said in a secretive manner, "Ah, there''s no discomfort. I think it''s because the day has changed too quickly, I must be feeling cold. "Esteemed wangfei, if there''s nothing else, I''ll leave ¡­"


    "Hey, why are you leaving? Since you''re here, let''s have a drink. "What are you all waiting for? Hurry up and serve the dishes." Xi Wan Feng blocked Xi Jiu Er''s path and laughed.


    "I''m going back." Xi Jiu Er looked at the greasy meat, and endured the vomiting.


    "Don''t, so what if we eat together?" Xi Wan Feng forcefully pulled Xi Jiu Er down. had a servant by his side today, and if it was not Liu Shui, she would not dare to let him go so easily.


    "I don''t." Xi Jiu Er weakly replied, and finally couldn''t take it anymore and began to vomit.


    Xi Wan Feng''s eyes lit up, and asked with concern: "What''s wrong with you? Men, quickly go find a doctor. "


    "No need, I just had a bellyache a few days ago. I''m not feeling well. Liu Xiang, let''s go. " Xi Jiu Er anxiously brought Liu Xiang and ran as if she was escaping.


    Xi Wan Feng laughed complacently. Hahaha, Xi Jiu Er, this time I will make sure that your reputation will be ruined. After so many years of falling at your hands, I will definitely defeat you this time.


    Xi Jiu Er was very cunning, she knew that if she was pregnant, she would find a chance to get rid of the child. No, she must take this opportunity to carry out her plan, suddenly ¨C she thought of a way.


    Xi Jiu Er, Prince Xian likes you, even the Emperor looks favorably upon you. This time, I will make you lose your reputation. A few days ago, Prince Xian told her that he would bring her to the palace, saying that he wanted to see her.


    Mubai... It was impossible for Xi Wan Feng to not hate this woman, if she had extended her hand out earlier, they would not have ended up like this. Mubai had a certain amount of responsibility.


    In the morning of the second day, Xi Wan Feng was afraid that if there were too many troubles in the night, he would directly send Xi Jiu Er to the Imperial Palace. One more thing, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge!


    "Why would I enter the palace?" Xi Jiu Er said in a voice filled with rejection, "I still have something very important to say."


    Something very important? Could it be to knock the child out? That was to make her follow him to the palace. This slut was extremely scheming. If he were to slip away, then he wouldn''t be able to catch her.


    "The Mubai is somewhat similar to us. Furthermore, you had protected her fetus before, so it is natural for you to go and take a look." Xi Wan Feng tried his best to persuade her to enter the palace no matter what.


    Xi Jiu Er was helpless, she kept on retreating, and finally agreed to it. Hearing that Xi Jiu Er had agreed, Xi Wan Feng was afraid that she would go back on her words and immediately ordered people to prepare carriages to enter the palace.


    "There''s no need to hurry." Xi Jiu Er frowned.


    "Yes, sooner or later." Xi Wan Feng laughed and said.


    Very quickly, Xi Wan Feng brought Xi Jiu Er to the carriage, and Xi Jiu Er quickly said: "I have not washed and dressed yet, my appearance is not good. "Still, wait a bit."


    "Ugh ¨C" Xi Jiu Er began to retch again.


    "What''s wrong?" Xi Wan Feng asked.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her warily, and shook her head: "I''m fine." Xi Wan Feng smiled to himself. Luckily, he was fast, otherwise, Xi Jiu Er would have been able to escape.


    How could Xi Wan Feng let his reputation go down the drain? There was no doubt that she needed Mubai''s help. There was no one in the palace and she was working with the Mubai.


    After taking care of Xi Jiu Er, Mubai, just you wait, I won''t let you live your life as you wish. Seeing that Mubai was doing well and that she had given birth to the little prince, her identity gradually became more and more noble, and she wanted to go up and strangle her.


    What the Xi Family could honor was all because of the two wretched women, Xi Jiu Er and the Mubai.


    Arriving at the palace, Xi Wan Feng couldn''t wait to go to Mubai''s chambers. When Mubai heard that Xi Wan Feng had come to bother him early in the morning, he felt unhappy, but he still said on the surface, "Just tell them I''m not well, and tell them to wait outside."


    Just like that, an hour passed. Only then did Mubai order people to dress up and let them in after they were done.


    "Greetings Young Lady Mubai."


    "Greetings Young Lady Mubai."


    "Oh? Princess Xian and Princess Laifu are both here? "Get up." Mubai lifted her hand lazily, and asked Xi Wan Feng with a questioning gaze. Xi Wan Feng then shifted his gaze to Xi Jiu Er''s lower abdomen without leaving a trace, which meant that Mubai had roughly guessed the meaning.


    Mubai immediately became spirited, so that was how it was.


    Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth and started to vomit. Xi Wan Feng had already sent people to find the Emperor. I''ll let everyone see what''s going on later. She believed it would be very lively.


    "Princess Laifu, what''s wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" Mubai asked with concern.


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression changed as she hurriedly shook her head, "Young Lady Mubai, maidservant had eaten too many things a few days ago, so I''m not feeling well."


    "Is that so? It''s good that you''re not serious. Seriously, you already know some superficial medical skills, so why don''t you show it to yourself? What if it gets serious? Why don''t I get you a doctor. " Mubai said with a smile.

 C175

    "Thank you for your kindness, esteemed Empress. maidservant is just a broken stomach, why would the imperial physician need to put in so much effort!" Xi Jiu Er was in a bit of panic, but she still maintained her composure.


    The Mubai exchanged gazes with Xi Wan Feng for a moment: "What?! You''re in my palace and seeing that you''re not well, I should get an imperial physician to treat you. "You are also my benefactor ¡­"


    She could not help but think back to what happened that day, and her heart was a little unwilling. She had accepted such a great favor from Xi Jiu Er;


    With a quick thought, he realized that there were many things he had to do in the harem. How could he not know the difference the Emperor had made to Xi Jiu Er when he was blind? As long as she thought of the woman the Emperor doted on, she wouldn''t let a single one of them go.


    "Young Lady Mubai, let the imperial physician come and take a look at Jiu Er. Jiu Er has been like this the entire way, and it''s the same at home as well. Xi Wan Feng suddenly said.


    The Mubai nodded his head, "Hmm, come. Go and find the doctor on duty today."


    After giving his orders, he turned to Xi Jiu Er and said, "You, you''re already so serious, why are you being courteous to me?"


    "Many thanks esteemed Empress. There really is nothing wrong with maidservant. There''s no need to ask for an imperial physician." Xi Jiu Er panicked, and wanted to stop everything.


    Xi Wan Feng was extremely happy in his heart. Just you wait, today is the time for you to lose your reputation. Xi Wan Feng suddenly felt his stomach churning, as though he was about to vomit. Xi Wan Feng was shocked. Damn it, how did she forget that she was still pregnant? He was too busy being happy to forget about it.


    "Little sister, just listen to Young Lady Mubai." ''s complexion is still not looking too good for you.


    "I ¡­" Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth to speak, but she stopped in her tracks. Xi Wan Feng, on the other hand, really wanted to laugh, and laughed heartily as if she could see herself winning.


    She deliberately provoked him by asking, "Sister, why do you keep saying that you don''t want to see a doctor? Is there something hard to say? Tell Elder Sister, Young Lady Mubai will help you too. "


    Elder sister? Look at the warmth!


    "No, there''s nothing that''s hard to say ¡­" Xi Jiu Er immediately replied: "I just don''t want to trouble Young Lady Mubai."


    The more she acted this way, the more certain they became of her idea. Mubai laughed: "There''s no need to be polite, this is just a small matter, it''s nothing."


    "This ¡­" Xi Jiu Er mumbled.


    By the time the imperial physician came over, Xi Jiu Er''s face was completely pale white, and he started trembling all over from excitement. As long as the doctor came over to inspect, the matter would be exposed. At that time, not only would Xi Jiu Er''s reputation be ruined, she would also not be able to keep her title of princess anymore.


    "The emperor has arrived!"


    Mubai''s face darkened, he glanced at Xi Jiu Er, got up and tidied up his appearance, then walked towards the door. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge walked over with his hands behind his back, the moment he saw Xi Jiu Er, the expression on Mubai''s face changed slightly. He had to get rid of Xi Jiu Er, the scourge.


    "What''s wrong?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge sat down and asked.


    Mubai said: "Chenqie greets Your Majesty."


    "Get up."


    "Yes."


    Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wan Feng bowed together, "Greetings, Your Majesty."


    "Get up." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said.


    "Princess Laifu''s body isn''t feeling very well. Chenqie called the imperial physician to treat her, but Princess Laifu kept evading her, saying that there''s no need." Mubai said gently: "Isn''t this what we were talking about?"


    "Is that so?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently: "Princess Laifu, my beloved concubine has good intentions, why do you not appreciate my kindness?"


    "Exactly, why didn''t Young Lady Mubai appreciate your kind intentions?" Xi Wan Feng felt that he was now a victor, and had already forgotten where he was.


    "Impudent!" How can the Emperor have the right to speak here? " Xi Wan Feng kneeled on the ground and said in a terrified voice, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am also a Princess Laifu who was too concerned about you, so I lost my composure this time."


    "Is that so?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently: "Seeing that you are concerned about the Princess Laifu, I will not pursue your disrespect, so smack your own mouth twice."


    "Your Majesty ¡­" Xi Wan Feng lifted her head. No matter what, she was still a Princess Xian and the emperor had a good relationship with the Prince Xian. Wasn''t she slapping Prince Xian in the face?


    The Mubai was also stunned, it was just a simple sentence, but the Emperor was even slapped in the face by Xi Wan Feng, even if she didn''t care about the face of the monk, she was still married to the Prince Xian. Since when was the Prince Xian not favoured?


    "Yes ¡­" Xi Wan Feng could only give up struggling. Every word the Emperor said was an imperial edict, so he didn''t allow others to refute him. Xi Wan Feng fiercely slapped himself in his heart. All of this was for Xi Jiu Er, the emperor had done it all for Xi Jiu Er!


    "Get up." The emperor said indifferently.


    "Yes." Xi Wan Feng stood up and waited. After a while, you will know that the woman you like is pregnant and pregnant.


    At this moment, the imperial physician had arrived.


    "The Imperial Physician Chen is here, let''s go and have a look. She doesn''t feel well." Mubai said.


    Xi Jiu Er''s face slightly changed, while Xi Wan Feng''s mouth revealed a pleased smile, Xi Jiu Er, you''re dead today! She was definitely going to die.


    She quietly stared at Doctor Chen who was taking Xi Jiu Er''s pulse, unable to wait for the imperial physician to announce the good news. Xi Wan Feng anxiously waited.


    After waiting for a long time, she could no longer hold it in and asked anxiously: "What results did Imperial Physician Chen get?"


    Mubai also asked: "Imperial Physician Chen, did you get any results?"


    "Reporting to Your Majesty, Young Lady Mubai, and Princess Xian, their bodies are fine, but some of them have eaten bad food, and they''ve been exhausted recently, so they need to rest more." Imperial Physician Chen replied respectfully.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge nodded. "Did Princess Laifu hear what the imperial physician said."


    "Yes, maidservant already knows." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Imperial Physician, don''t tell me your diagnosis was wrong?" When Xi Wan Feng heard about the result he did not know about, he was immediately dumbfounded. How could she not be pregnant? There were all sorts of signs that she was clearly pregnant.


    This doctor must have been bribed by Xi Jiu Er to lie for her.


    "Impudent, the Imperial Physician Chen is a famous imperial physician of the Grand Hospital, everyone recognizes that he is fair and honest. What do you mean by that?" Mubai shouted. Since the Imperial Physician Chen had said that, it showed that Xi Wan Feng had been played by Xi Jiu Er for a while.


    "This old man has been a doctor for his entire life, how could he have made the wrong diagnosis?" Imperial Physician Chen seemed to be humiliated, and his beard trembled in anger.


    Xi Wan Feng hurriedly said: "I am sorry Imperial Physician Chen, I was just too worried about my little sister. Just now, seeing how serious she is, I thought ¡­" The wronged look on his face calmed Imperial Physician Chen down considerably.


    "Thank you so much for sister''s care. Why was I so disappointed instead?" Xi Jiu Er asked with a smile, even if she was a fool, she knew that she had been deceived, furthermore, Xi Wan Feng was not a fool.


    Xi Wan Feng had never defeated Xi Jiu Er before, not even once, even this time! Unreconciled, truly unreconciled! His heart was in pain, his stomach churned, something wanted to vomit. "Ugh ¡­" With that, Xi Wan Feng clutched his chest and retched!


    "Elder sister, are you alright?" Xi Jiu Er asked in concern.


    "I''m fine, I''m fine!" Xi Wan Feng said hurriedly, and retreated far away. Xi Jiu Er planned for this show, and at that time, she was afraid that she would plot against him too!


    "Nothing? But it doesn''t look like it, let Big Sis see it! " Xi Jiu Er said with concern, but his eyes were filled with ridicule, an ordinary pair of cold eyes!


    "No need, I''m fine. There''s no need for the imperial physician to treat me!" Xi Wan Feng''s face changed, and she retreated! Facing the doubtful gazes of the Mubai and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, she managed to suppress her expression with great difficulty and smiled: "Thank you for your relationship with little sister, there''s no need."


    "How can I not? Sister is so concerned about me, so I can take good care of sister!" Xi Jiu Er laughed, and then went forward and grabbed Xi Wan Feng''s arm, and said word by word!


    Xi Wan Feng, do you like this? Today was prepared for you. The good show is about to begin.


    Mubai was shocked. She was an experienced person, and Xi Wan Feng''s reaction just now was to become pregnant. Could it be that this child was not from Prince Xian?


    To actually be able to do such a thing, if he wanted to go to the Prince Xian to know, even if Xi Wan Feng didn''t die, he would still have a layer of skin removed! Having received Xi Wan Feng''s gaze, they were now on the same side. If Xi Wan Feng lost, who would help her deal with Xi Jiu Er?


    "Forget it, since Princess Xian is unwilling, then let''s just do as she says!" The Mubai laughed.


    Xi Wan Feng immediately bowed: "Many thanks Young Lady Mubai for your understanding!"


    "That won''t do. Elder sister, didn''t you always tell me that if I was sick, I had to be treated in time? He had to do it in case it got worse! Imperial Physician Chen, can you help my sister take a look and see if the security is serious? Xi Jiu Er''s'' caring ''look made Xi Wan Feng feel extremely disgusted! Xi Jiu Er, you wretched person, why don''t you go and die, if you die, you will be free of everything.


    Xi Wan Feng''s face twisted and he barely squeezed out a smile: "No need, I''m fine!" These words seemed to be squeezed out from the gaps between the teeth! Glaring fiercely at Xi Jiu Er, she prayed for him!


    He was the Princess Laifu, he was an imperial physician, and since the Emperor didn''t say anything, he went to Xi Wan Feng''s side to check his pulse!


    "Congratulations Princess Xian! Congratulations to Princess Xian!" Prince Chen said.


    Prince Xian arrives! The eunuch outside shouted. Xi Wan Feng''s entire face was pale and her body was trembling violently. If not for Xia Er''s support, she would have probably knelt down on the ground with her legs going soft.


    "Elder sister, why are you so pale? Xi Wan Feng gloated at the side. No one present was an idiot, they could tell what happened just by thinking about it.


    Prince Xian was still covered in red. He indifferently looked at Xi Wan Feng and bowed, "This humble subject greets Your Majesty!"


    "Get up. Zhen congratulates you on being a father. Your wangfei is pregnant!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said.


    Xi Wan Feng sensed that this sentence had a different meaning, he was unable to understand what it meant. Turning his head to look at Prince Xian, Prince Xian''s face was terrifyingly black to the point that water could drip out of it. This was a question of a man''s dignity. Who could bear to have their wife put on a green hat for them?


    "Your majesty, this subject still has some family matters to attend to. I''ll be taking my leave first." Prince Xian cupped his hands and said.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed: "Hehe, let''s go back."


    Prince Xian went up and grabbed Xi Wan Feng''s wrist, then pulled her out of the hall. The atmosphere immediately became awkward. Mubai laughed dryly and said, "Princess Laifu, you should go back as well."


    "Yes, maidservant will take his leave."

 C176

    Prince Xian''s Mansion.


    "Are you pregnant? "How come I don''t know anything at all?" Prince Xian''s expression was extremely calm, and it was impossible to tell how she was feeling at all. After all the emotions flashed crazily in her eyes, everything became calm again, as if nothing had happened.


    Xi Wan Feng was extremely afraid, Xia Er immediately stepped forward, and she served Xi Wan Feng but she never discovered that Xi Wan Feng had anything to do with other men. Last time, the matter between Xi Wan Feng and Zhong Tang Jun was done very stealthily, Xia Er did not realise it at all.


    "Your highness, wangfei''s health is not good, and the matter of the moon isn''t very accurate. Some doctor must have made it up. Your highness, you have to believe that she hasn''t done anything to disappoint you." Xia Er was also extremely afraid of Prince Xian, but she still bravely replied.


    "Do you think that imperial physician is a decoration?" The Prince Xian was furious, his big hand grabbed onto Xi Wan Feng''s neck, causing Xi Wan Feng to roll his eyes as he tried his best to pry away the big hand that was holding the Prince Xian. Xia Er''s face had already turned purple. He hugged Prince Xian''s thigh and said in shock, "My prince, you''re strangling my wangfei to death. I beg you, please let my wangfei go."


    "No woman has ever dared to toy with me like this before. Xi Wan Feng, not even you." The figure of a person suddenly flashed past Prince Xian''s mind. It was too blurry and could not be seen clearly, but looking at the figure of the person, it was obvious that it was a woman.


    "Your Highness!" Xia Er screamed, but Xi Wan Feng was no longer able to do it.


    As the Prince Xian flung Xi Wan Feng away, Xi Wan Feng felt as if he had walked out of hell and returned with an extremely unsightly expression. He forcefully coughed, "Cough, cough ¡­"


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Wan Feng wanted to use her pity but unfortunately, the Prince Xian already hated her to the extreme. How long had it been since a woman got married, and being pregnant was simply an insult to him. How many women wanted to marry him? He never thought that Xi Wan Feng would actually be such a disobedient woman.


    "Hmph, you actually betrayed This King by doing such a shameless thing. Will This King make things better for you?" Prince Xian''s extraordinarily handsome face was filled with ruthlessness.


    "Speak, who is that man?"


    "Chenqie, chenqie doesn''t know what Your Highness is saying." At this time, Xi Wan Feng was still trying to quibble, and was so angry that Prince Xian slapped him ruthlessly, "Bitch, why aren''t you telling me now, let''s see how I''ll take care of you today."


    "Your Highness, I''m your consort. Why don''t you believe me? "Chenqie really didn''t ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was so regretful that she wanted to kill herself. How could she be so stupid?


    "You aren''t going to speak, right? This King has plenty of ways to make you speak." Prince Xian laughed coldly, "Men, bring this king''s whip over." That whip was even given to him by Shui Xian before he left.


    "My prince, what, what are you doing? Chenqie really doesn''t know what kind of man, everything was planned by Xi Jiu Er to kill me ¡­" That time, she and Zhong Tang Jun did not drink any medicine, just in case they were really pregnant.


    At this time, they heard that the Princess Laifu had arrived. Xi Wan Feng suddenly had a feeling that a great calamity was about to befall upon him. Xi Wan Feng shook his head and screamed, "Don''t let this slut come over here!


    The Prince Xian said: "Hehe, who knows what your sister might know. Someone, invite the Princess Laifu over." At this time, a strange feeling emerged in his heart. He wanted to see Xi Jiu Er.


    "Stop, how can you hit a woman?" The moment Xi Jiu Er came over, she immediately went to protect Xi Wan Feng, causing him to be startled. What''s going on? She must have seen wrongly.


    However, in his heart, Sergei thought: "Well fought, why didn''t you kill him?" En, if she was beaten to death, then there would be no more scenes to watch, right? She had purposely come here to see a show. "


    "Princess Laifu, your sister and I have never touched her ever since we were married. Today, she''s pregnant, how do you explain that?" The Prince Xian found this kind of thing very strange. Logically speaking, the other party should be a kind Miss that had not married yet, so why would he tell her? However, a voice in his heart told him that he should let her know. That''s right.


    Xi Wan Feng said: "Jiu Er, tell me, Your Highness, that I have never done anything to let him down." Regardless of why Xi Jiu Er was defending him, she hoped that someone would speak up for him at this moment.


    Hehe, begging for mercy? She couldn''t wait for Xi Wan Feng to go to hell? Only a fool would plead on her behalf.


    Xi Jiu Er said somewhat helplessly: "Big Sister Feng, what you are doing is too improper. How can you put on a green hat for your highness? How did our Xi Family raise you? This is too much. If this were to spread out, neither you nor the Prince would have any face. "


    Xi Wan Feng''s eyes widened. "You, you ¡­" She actually wanted Xi Jiu Er to plead on her behalf, the person Xi Jiu Er wished the most for her to die.


    "Big Sister Feng, please be honest. I will plead with the Prince for you." Only Xi Wan Feng knew just how evil this woman was. He had been defeated time and time again by her hands.


    "Xi Jiu Er, you slut, what nonsense are you spouting? I''m not pregnant at all. If you accuse me wrongly, you must have done it, right? Tell me, did you do it. " Xi Wan Feng sensed that something was amiss, this must be related to him.


    "Elder sister, if you say it like that, little sister feels that she''s very innocent, this thing has nothing to do with me, okay? I''m in the Xi Mansion, but you''re in the Duke Palaces, so you can return home from time to time. You''re hurting me by saying that. " Xi Jiu Er looked to be injured and was so angry that she almost smoked. No, she was already sweating.


    "Your Highness ¡­" You have to believe me. " Xi Wan Feng cried.


    "My prince, I only hope that after my sister confesses, you can give her a chance to start anew." Xi Jiu Er said.


    "Xi Jiu Er, I''ll kill you." Xi Wan Feng really did not want to see Xi Jiu Er fanning the flames at the side.


    For some reason, Prince Xian like Xi Jiu Er felt that it was extremely interesting.


    At this point, the servant had already brought the whip over, causing Xi Wan Feng to shrink back in fear. "Your Highness, you have to believe me, I really did not do anything to let you down, Your Highness."


    "Still not telling the truth? As long as I send a old mother over, I''ll know everything after my medical examination. " Prince Xian said angrily: "Do you still think I''m a monkey?"


    "I ¡­ I''m still a virgin ¡­" Xi Wan Feng screamed.


    "Sometimes this can be faked." Xi Jiu Er said coldly at the side.


    Pah pah pah ¡­ The whip came down, but Prince Xian still struck the place that hurt the most, it was so painful that Xi Jiu Er rolled on the ground and cried out miserably. Xi Jiu Er quietly stood there, as if she was in a trance back in her previous life.


    Not long after, Xi Wan Feng was beaten to the point that he saw blood, his skin turned white, and he fainted along with it. Xia Er, on the other hand, was a loyal servant girl who kept pleading for Xi Wan Feng. "My prince, I beg you, please let go of my wife.


    When she found out that Xi Wan Feng was pregnant, she was very shocked as well. Did he really have it, or was his body not in a good condition this time around?


    Xi Jiu Er felt that she shed watched enough, and it was time to return. Then she went back... She couldn''t stop smiling along the way. However, when she thought of her marriage, he felt unhappy.


    Xi Wan Feng woke up with a burning pain all over her body, thinking of Prince Xian and the whip, she couldn''t help but shiver all over. He was lost in thought, his mind a blank. He didn''t even know what he was thinking.


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" Only after hearing Xia Er''s voice did Xi Wan Feng become a bit more spirited.


    "Esteemed wangfei, you''ve woken up." Xia Er brought her food and some ointment to eat, but he couldn''t help saying, "Esteemed wangfei, after you fainted, you bled ¡­"


    "Blood?" Xi Wan Feng was startled.


    It is impossible to bleed without children... It couldn''t just happen to be a monthly event, right? Xia Er said softly, "There''s a blood clot inside ¡­ "Not much ¡­"


    This could mean that Xi Wan Feng was truly pregnant.


    Clang clang, both master and servant were so frightened that their bodies trembled. Xi Wan Feng looked over in shock and immediately shouted out, "Your highness ¡­ "My prince, I beg you, stop hitting me ¡­"


    The person who came was Prince Xian.


    Prince Xian revealed a devilish smile, like Mu Chunfeng. But to Xi Wan Feng, he was like a devil as he shook his head and said, "Your highness ¡­ "You ¡­"


    "Heh heh, Princess is the one. I won''t hit you." Prince Xian said: "I don''t even have enough time to love you."


    These words sounded strange, and no matter how one looked at it, it didn''t sound right. Xi Wan Feng didn''t know what kind of medicine he was going to buy from the Prince Xian, but when he saw that the servants were bringing in the piping hot bathtub, the Prince Xian said: "Come, my wangfei, this king will help you bathe. Look at you, you have a weird smell on your body, it smells so bad, so disgusting."


    Xi Wan Feng looked at the bath barrel and had a bad premonition. Prince Xian carried Xi Jiu Er up from the waist and threw him into the bathtub. Xi Wan Feng cried out in pain: "It hurts, it hurts!"


    When the water reached his lips, he realized that there was salt inside! Xi Wan Feng wanted to crawl out from the bath barrel, but he was held down by a big hand. Xi Wan Feng was in so much pain that he was crying like ghosts and howling like wolves.


    "Ah ¡­" Prince ¡­ "I''m begging you ¡­"


    "Begging for mercy?" Tell me who that man is and I''ll let you go. " was so scared that his entire body was trembling. Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er, all of this is your fault. Taking the medicine didn''t work at all. If it worked, why was he still torturing himself?


    Xi Wan Feng did not reveal Zhong Tang Jun, but this matter can''t be resolved even if one was beaten to death.

 C177

    ''s head was dizzy. When he felt that he was about to die from the pain, the Prince Xian had already scooped him out. She thought that Prince Xian had overturned her, but Prince Xian said: "Xi Wan Feng, if you don''t tell me who that man is, I will make you wish you were dead."


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" Xia Er kneeled on the ground and cried out helplessly.


    She did not understand the Prince Xian. He could allow his wife to have a bad temper, be willful, cunning, and savage, never allowing her to betray him. She had betrayed him, and he had unintentionally used all his strength to slap a man''s face.


    "Princess, Servant is incompetent, Servant did not protect Princess Hua-Yang." As Xia Er applied the medicine, he said, "Princess, what should we do? We can''t go on like this."


    Xia Er didn''t need to say anything to know that, but what should she do now? She didn''t know. All of a sudden, she thought of a way to take care of Xi Jiu Er. She had always been working on Xi Jiu Er, but she had forgotten that Xi Jiu Er cared a lot about the servants by his side. The high level of strength in the Wei Guogong was not something she could touch. Liu Shui, that slut, spent his days with Xi Jiu Er and the others. It would be difficult for his to even touch any one of them.


    However, there was one other person that Xi Jiu Er cared a lot about, and that was the ex-sister-in-law. Humph ¡­ Xi Jiu Er, this time, I will make you die without a burial ground.


    "Xia Er, there is something I need to ask of you. You must keep this matter a secret for me, okay? Don''t even tell Prince Xian! " Right now, the only person Xi Wan Feng could rely on was Xia Er. This matter still required Xia Er.


    "Your highness, please do as you''re told. Xia Er will definitely help your highness." Xia Er said.


    "Come here ¡­" Xi Wan Feng whispered into Xia Er''s ear, causing his expression to turn ugly. After Xi Wan Feng finished speaking, he asked, "Do you understand now? Do you remember? "


    Xia Er solemnly nodded her head, "Rest assured Royal Consort, Servant will definitely settle this matter well."


    "Alright, go ahead." Success or failure would depend on Xia Er. When Xia Er went out, Xi Wan Feng was on tenterhooks. He lied on the bed and fell asleep again. Speaking of which, where did Xia Er go? Xia Er went to the teahouse where Xi Wan Feng and Zhong Tang Jun had met up and left a message there before hurrying back.


    All along the way, Xia Er was on tenterhooks. She passed by the pharmacy and grabbed some medication to take care of her body. When Xi Wan Feng woke up and still did not see Xia Er, he became nervous. Could it be that Xia Er had been discovered? No, no.


    "Royal Concubine, Servant is acting recklessly." Xia Er pushed the door and nodded at Xi Wan Feng, causing him to completely relax. On the other side, it was all up to Zhong Tang Jun... Xi Wan Feng then thought about how to deal with the matters of the Prince Xian. After thinking about it, he still couldn''t think of a suitable method, so in the end, was he going to drug the Prince Xian again?


    "Xia Er..." When the Prince Xian got angry, even if he himself was a cat with nine lives, it would still not be enough to deal with him.


    Back then, in order to make the Prince Xian marry her, she had asked Xia Er to hook a servant in the Prince Xian''s room. This servant was indeed deceived, and although what Xia Er said was not obedient, Xia Er could say whatever she wanted. She had long treated her as her wife.


    Xia Er carried the tea to look for the servant, and the servant was extremely excited when he saw Xia Er coming, he did not know where to put his hand, but seeing Xia Er''s gentle smile, he felt as though his entire body had gone soft: "Xia, Xia Er."


    "I came here today to get rid of you."


    "What is it?"


    "You knew that the wangfei provoked the prince, so the wangfei brewed his favorite tea, hoping that he would calm down." Xia Er said in a low voice: "You must not tell the prince that it was Princess Hua-Yang who soaked him up, otherwise, when the prince is angry he won''t drink him."


    This was a small matter that was not even worth mentioning. When Xia Er handed over the tea, he touched the servant''s hand without leaving a trace, causing the attendant to almost knock over the teacup. Looking at Xia Er''s leaving figure was simply intoxicating.


    "Princess, everything has been settled." Xia Er said.


    Xi Wan Feng suddenly felt that his entire life was filled with flowers that were hidden in the shadows. He immediately beamed with joy: "Xia Er, you are really my lucky star."


    "It''s Xia Er''s fortune to be able to do something for the wangfei."


    On Xi Jiu Er''s side, Zhong Tang Jun had already started moving and kidnapped the ex-sister-in-law. heart-nourishing hall immediately told Xi Jiu Er the news, but Xi Jiu Er did not think much about it, and thought that she had offended someone.


    "Princess, please let Servant go. Even if you don''t know any martial arts, it would still be of great use to you." Liu Shui said.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while and nodded, "Alright, you should be careful too."


    "Princess, don''t worry." Liu Shui laughed as he took a piece of cake from the table and left. How infuriating. When I find the robber, I will definitely chop him into eight pieces. How infuriating! Kidnapping while eating, you say you''re not going to let people eat?! This really pissed her off.


    Xi Jiu Er was extremely relieved when she heard of Liu Shui''s plans, so she sat inside the house and waited for news. In order to reward Xi Jiu Er, she decided to eat together with him when he returned. At this time, the time came to report that the ex-sister-in-law had returned.


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, what kind of play was this?


    After an hour, Liu Shui still did not return. Only then did she feel that something was amiss, and he immediately brought Liu Xiang to ex-sister-in-law. Something was not right, something was not right. Xi Jiu Er could not tell what was wrong and he vaguely felt that this was directed at him.


    The horse carriage was still moving, when a few masked men suddenly rushed towards Xi Jiu Er with swords, the coachman was instantly killed. Xi Jiu Er was also almost cut. Xi Jiu Er had learnt a few basic kung fu from Liu Shui. However, in front of these people, all they could do was try their luck.


    "Liu Xiang, leave quickly." Xi Jiu Er was not an idiot. Xi Jiu Er immediately took the opportunity to flee, and Liu Xiang said: "Not only Servant, you''ll be with the princess."


    "No ¡­" Liu Xiang had already been captured, and her expression changed: "Let go of her, your target is me. If you do not release her, I will immediately commit suicide. "


    Xi Jiu Er pulled out the hairpin and held it to her throat, then looked at each other as they discussed how to release Liu Xiang. Xi Jiu Er followed them. Liu Xiang shouted a few times, then turned and ran towards heart-nourishing hall.


    "Eh? Lady Liu Xiang, you are here ¡­ " When the shop assistant saw that it was Liu Xiang greeting him passionately, Liu Xiang ran up to the second floor while gasping for breath, and then saw a group of beautiful women chattering away.


    "Shut up!" Liu Xiang tore her throat and roared, "All of you, shut up."


    It was quiet for a moment, and before they could regain their senses, Liu Xiang said: "Doctor Xiao Feng, our princess was kidnapped by a group of masked men."


    If this Doctor Xiao Feng went to propose marriage, she definitely would like the princess. Besides, his kung fu is very high. She can definitely do it!


    "Which way are they heading?" Feng Qing Cheng''s face changed as he asked. How could this little woman have so many things to do in a day? Why was there someone constantly wanting to take her life? He was busier than himself.


    "The south!"


    Feng Qing Cheng suddenly stood up and ran away like the wind. On the other side, Xi Jiu Er saw the people she expected to see ¡ª Xi Wan Feng and Zhong Tang Jun. Xi Wan Feng was very pleased with himself, and said complacently: "Xi Jiu Er, we took a walk and you came back."


    Xi Jiu Er did not laugh under her skin, "That''s right, this is really fate."


    Slap ¡ª ¡ª "After being ruthlessly slapped by Xi Wan Feng, Xi Jiu Er''s eyes flashed with excitement," Xi Jiu Er, you have such a day, hahaha ¡­ You slut, I wish I could eat your flesh and your blood and skin you alive. "


    This time, Xi Jiu Er heard too many words and did not feel too good about it.


    "Xi Jiu Er, I will kill you here today. All these years, I have lost to you countless times, and all of this was because of you. I lost my reputation, I lost my mother, I lost my sister ¡­" When Xi Wan Feng thought about how it was Xi Jiu Er who snatched away everything that belonged to him, and about how she continuously gave Xi Jiu Er a few slaps.


    Xi Jiu Er''s mouth was filled with blood. Xi Jiu Er sneered: "Didn''t you carry him back? "What, are you dead yet?"


    Xi Wan Feng stared blankly for a moment, then immediately broke out in curses: "You slut, you slut. I''m going to kill you, I''m going to kill you."


    "Haha, Xi Wan Feng, we are already considered old rivals, you keep saying things like that, I don''t think there''s anything new at all, why don''t you change the way you describe it. "Can you?" Xi Jiu Er said very seriously, causing Xi Wan Feng''s fire to not set off.


    "Pa!"


    Xi Wan Feng sneered: "Little bitch, do you want to die? Don''t worry, it''s still early. I''m going to play you to death, aren''t I? I can''t let you get away with this for nothing. "


    Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "Xi Wan Feng, you have always been a defeated opponent under my hand, do you think you can beat me this time around? Yo ¡­ Don''t you remember how the wounds on your body came about? "


    "It''s really you, bitch!" Xi Wan Feng took out his small knife, and the bright knife slid across Xi Jiu Er''s face: What a tender skin, I''m so envious of you looking at it.


    Rip ¡ª Xi Jiu Er''s face was cut by the blade, Xi Jiu Er did not even frown. Xi Wan Feng began to giggle, and Xi Jiu Er said in disdain: "My laughter is no different from a hen, it''s really ear-piercing."


    "Xi Jiu Er, you are very pleased, hahaha ¡­ But you won''t be proud soon, because you''re going to die soon. "Hahaha ¡­" Xi Wan Feng, you''re really very happy, she has been waiting for this day for a long, long time. Xi Jiu Er saw that she was exactly the same as a madman, and opened his mouth wide: "Really? I really hope that your wish can be realized, so that you won''t waste your time. "


    Xi Wan Feng''s face immediately darkened, with a swoosh, a long wound appeared on Xi Jiu Er''s face, blood immediately spurting out.


    "Yoh, you look really good. So beautiful. Come and slash again." Xi Wan Feng slashed again, and an ''x'' formed on his face. Xi Wan Feng admired his masterpiece and asked Zhong Tang Jun: "How is it? "Did you see that?"


    Zhong Tang Jun nodded: "Yes."

 C178

    "Zhong Tang Jun, do you know what it is that makes me think of when I see you? You are just like a dog, allowing Xi Wan Feng to trample on you, don''t think that I don''t know what happened between you and her, I know all about it! Aren''t you afraid of Prince Xian finding out? Does your Zhong Family have to pay a painful price because of you? "


    Xi Wan Feng knew that Xi Jiu Er''s tongue was powerful, and was afraid that she would move Zhong Tang Jun, so he sent another slap towards her. The strength of the slap was so strong that golden stars appeared on Xi Jiu Er''s head, it was as if she had heard it all.


    "Bitch, bitch ¡­" Xi Wan Feng went forward and gave a fierce kick, only stopping after he was tired. Zhong Tang Jun asked: What do you plan to do with her?


    "What shall we do with her? I wish I could eat her flesh, drink her blood, skin her, and eat her up! I don''t know what method she used to force me to retreat step by step. "


    Thinking about it, she was not a foolish person, why did she suffer such a loss on Xi Jiu Er''s body, she was truly angered to death. If it was because of that bitch Xi Jiu Er, how would she live her life as a human and a ghost?


    "Hehehe, I am going to ruin her looks. I am going to let her be abused by millions of men and then sell her to a brothel to suffer greatly. I want her to live a life worse than death, where one cannot beg for death, isn''t she a noble Princess Laifu? Wasn''t she very skilled? I would like to see if NANREN''s methods are also powerful! "Hahaha ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er had also heard Xi Wan Feng mutter to herself, telling her to sell it to the brothel so that the lowliest of criminals could vent their anger, and then receive their guests day and night, day and night, making it so that even if she wanted to die, she would not be able to! She said that Xi Jiu Er''s bones were tough, she would definitely be able to endure it for a year or so ¡­


    Xi Wan Feng clapped his hands and immediately a few men walked over, their eyes all shining with light.


    "Ai, what a pity, I can''t personally see you lead that kind of lowly life ¡­ I can''t see you begging for mercy anymore, what a pity. "Don''t you know how much I want you to kneel at my feet, cry and beg for me to let you go? How satisfying ¡­" Xi Wan Feng saw that Xi Jiu Er''s face did not have much expression, and said angrily: "Heh, I want to see how you''re going to continue being so tough!"


    "Don''t kill her, just hold your breath, just do whatever you want with her!" I want her to taste all the misery a woman has, the feeling of being Wannong, the feeling of being unable to beg for life or death! Did you hear that? " Xi Wan Feng said, "I will wait for your good news at the Drunken Immortal Tavern."


    "I heard it. Rest assured, I will definitely make you satisfied." They didn''t know Xi Wan Feng''s real identity, they only knew that he was a beauty working according to money. As for the rest, they neither asked nor pretended to know.


    Xi Wan Feng chuckled: "My good little sister, you should enjoy it. "Elder sister, I''ll be leaving first ¡­" Things had already been arranged. When they were done, they would sell Xi Jiu Er''s disfigured face to another country, and no one would be able to find him.


    When Xi Wan Feng and Zhong Tang Jun left, Xi Jiu Er was afraid that if they did not leave, it would become troublesome for him. As the men walked towards him, one of them said, "Even if your face is ruined, you are still an extremely beautiful person."


    "That''s right, it''s just this tender skin."


    "Cut the crap, hurry up, a second of the Spring Festival Gala is worth a thousand gold ¡­" A man impatiently said, "Hurry up!"


    After that, they began to discuss who should be the first, Xi Jiu Er told herself that at this time, she must be calm, must be calm! She was still tied, until the rope was untied. Xi Jiu Er took a cold breath, and said with a pitiful tone: "Don''t be like that, I''ll cooperate with you guys a lot."


    "Brothers, that woman has already told us not to listen to anything she says. She is very smart and cunning." One of them said.


    However, Xi Jiu Er said: "I am already in your hands, other than cooperating with me, what else can I do? It was better to face reality than to resist. I just hope that you all will be lighter. " Saying so, she revealed a shy and timid expression, causing the men to look at her ¡­


    "This ¡­" One of them said.


    "There are so many of you here, and I''m alone. Could it be that you''re afraid that I''ll run away?" Xi Jiu Er said. Everyone thought it was true. Seeing how weak this woman looked, she ran even if she wanted to.


    "Good, after all, it takes a lot of effort and time to complete this task." A man said before stepping forward to untie Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er rubbed her wrist and said in an incomparably delicate voice, "I think it''s better if I do it myself."


    Yo. I really didn''t know that such a noble and elegant Miss would actually have such a person in her heart.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly pulled out the hairpin. Just in case her hairpin was longer than the other hairpins by a little and harder than the others, to wear it down with extreme sharpness. Holding the hairpin in her hand, Xi Jiu Er kicked the biggest man in front of him, who was holding onto his pants and shouting in pain: "Bitch, you actually dared to kick me, what are you guys standing around for, attack!"


    Xi Jiu Er used a lot of force to kick them, causing her to use all her strength. Seeing their faces, she felt disgusted, and wanted to kill them immediately. Kacha. "She took out the hidden mechanism, and a sharp awl appeared, and she fiercely said," Today, I will kill all of you, and not a single one will be left alive. "


    Towards Xi Jiu Er who was overconfident in herself, the men would not take him seriously. After all, Xi Jiu Er was just a woman, she would not cause much of a ruckus.


    There would be momentum, but they wouldn''t be intimidated by a woman.


    The few men immediately surrounded Xi Jiu Er, and from their point of view, she was just a helpless girl. The man who was kicked by Xi Jiu Er just now said: "Hmph, if you are obedient, then we will wait upon you in a while. If you are disobedient, then don''t blame us brothers for not showing mercy and taking mercy on you."


    Xi Jiu Er naturally did not spare a glance at them and said: "You filthy servants, I advise you to not do such heartless things. I am the Princess Laifu, and my grandfather is the Wei Guogong. At that time ¡­ "Do you think you are still alive?"


    After all, Xi Jiu Er was a Princess Laifu and not someone that they would dare to lay their hands on! If one''s fingers were to be touched ¡­ He had to have this life. There was still the Wei Guogong, they were shocked the moment they heard that name.


    One of the men knew that they had loosened up just by looking at their expressions, so he said, "Hmph, you lot have no future. We don''t have a wife or daughter, so what''s there to fear? As the saying goes, even if you die under a peony flower, you can still act like a ghost ¡­ Brothers, to be able to meet such a beauty in this life, we will no longer have any regrets even in death. "


    Xi Jiu Er looked over, it was clear that this man was the leader.


    The man in the lead had undoubtedly given them great courage by saying these words. They were merely homeless people drifting about without any worries at all. Princess Laifu, this kind of status could only be observed from afar and not played around with. Who would have thought that they would have such good luck today?


    That''s right, it''s very romantic to be a ghost under a peony flower.


    Xi Jiu Er could tell that they had already made up their minds after seeing their expressions. Her expression changed slightly. She had already taken the initiative before the man could make a move! Her awl was sharp, so she had to strike a vital point. Otherwise, if she didn''t stall for time, it would anger them.


    Xi Jiu Er saw through their necks and eyes, so she walked towards the door step by step. Everyone saw through her intentions and immediately surrounded her. One person pounced forward, Xi Jiu Er immediately and accurately stabbed that person''s eye, that person originally underestimated her, now one of her eyes went blind.


    Clutching her eyes, she cried out in pain, "Slut, you slut ¡­"


    No one dared to be careless now. She took the opportunity while she was covering her eyes to stab towards that person''s chest. Puff! That person felt a chill on his chest. He looked down and saw a hole in his chest.


    One solved, and there were three more ¡­ knew that the remaining people were already on high alert, because the previous person was not on guard at all, and now that they were on full alert, it was difficult to take care of them!


    Xi Jiu Er wanted to make the first move, so, after thinking for a bit, she immediately rushed over. She could not die here, she had to wait for people to save her.


    Everyone was shocked by her powerful strike, but they were disappointed. Xi Jiu Er had only pretended to do so this time, as she wanted to rush to the door and escape. Unfortunately ¡ª She had just opened the door and saw the wilderness outside. With just a glance, she felt something wrap around her neck. She looked down and was shocked to see that it was the rope that bound her hands and feet.


    "Hmph, slut, you want to run away from these people? In your dreams!" Having lost a brother, their attitude towards Xi Jiu Er was not good. The man had pulled Xi Jiu Er''s neck with all his might, causing Xi Jiu Er to suddenly turn and stab down towards him. The man originally thought that they had succeeded, but who would have thought ¡­ His neck was pierced... His hand loosened, and Xi Jiu Er took the opportunity to struggle free from the rope.


    The remaining people immediately pounced towards Autumn Leaf like wolves. They were a little afraid of Xi Jiu Er, because she did not seem to be an ordinary weak and beautiful woman, nor was she someone who was raised in a woman with no strength to tie a chicken ¡­


    "You guys, if you want to capture me, you''ll have to see if you have the ability to do so." Then, he spat, "Humph, a toad wants to eat swan meat, dream on."


    The man in the lead scolded angrily, "Bitch, you are arrogant now. Wait a while, your grandpa will make you kneel down and beg for mercy. You can''t beg for life, you can''t even beg for death."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "You are like this? "Hmph, what''s the difference between him and those lowly people?"

 C179

    They were already anxiously staring at Xi Jiu Er with their red eyes, wishing that Xi Jiu Er could play with them. Xi Jiu Er heard the man in the lead say angrily, "Brothers, attack! I want this little bitch to regret! Don''t let this bitch escape today!"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the furious men, and quietly moved her body. Compared to them, how could she be a match? All of them still had a chance of winning, but if the three of them attacked at the same time, perhaps ¡­ At this moment, she was abnormally calm. There were three left, and as long as she could grasp them well, it wasn''t impossible to kill them off one by one.


    Xi Jiu Er realized that the leader of the group only knew how to gibberish and he had actually planned to take it for granted. Every time he did this, he would cowardly hide in the back and take action. Perhaps this was just the opening, when they pounced over, the man in the lead once again fell behind.


    "Slut!" When the leader saw that his target was himself, he scolded and immediately charged forward! Xi Jiu Er had miscalculated. Even though the man in the lead was timid, his strength was immense, and even though Xi Jiu Er was thrown out by his arm, she still had to stand up as soon as possible in order to not expose her weakness.


    The intense battle just now had caused him to gasp for breath. She was only gasping for breath as she stared at the three of them ¡­ She recalled the scene when she opened the door. This was the outskirts of the wilderness, and as long as she could escape, she had the confidence to survive.


    He took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and gulped it down. After drinking it, his mental energy increased exponentially, causing everyone to be stunned upon seeing it.


    She didn''t dare to relax. Those men were already so angry that their faces turned red like angry beasts. They couldn''t even catch a single woman. This was too embarrassing. What made people angry was that two people died! Although the woman in front of him had some ability, in the end, she was still a woman!


    They swore that they would torture her well if they caught her, making her suffer a fate worse than death. "Brothers, let''s attack together. This time, we can''t let her escape."


    Xi Jiu Er would not compromise, she tightly gripped the awl in her hand and looked at them without saying a word. She wanted to wait for the right moment to make her move, she didn''t dare to touch the man in the lead ¡­ Suddenly, she let out a beast-like howl that frightened the three of them so much that they couldn''t react for a while.


    Seeing that they had not regained their senses, Xi Jiu Er immediately turned and ran out the door. Unknowingly, she had already arrived at the door. The leader of the men was the first to react. "Quickly, chase them back." When Xi Jiu Er arrived outside, she found that everything was desolate. She didn''t know where she should go, and now she could only take one step at a time.


    She ran like crazy. She felt that someone was chasing her from behind. The men''s voices and gasps were so close. She didn''t dare to look back. She could only run forward with her life on the line. Her heart seemed like it was about to jump out of her throat ¡­ She was careless and was knocked down by a stone.


    Within this short period of time, a man had already grabbed her foot and dragged her along! Xi Jiu Er stretched out his hand to touch it, found a rock and threw it fiercely at the man, then grabbed a handful and threw it. The man squinted his eyes and was hit in the head by the stone. He cried out in pain as his hand loosened.


    Xi Jiu Er turned and ran, but unfortunately, she was kicked in the back. The leading man shouted angrily, "Bitch, I told you to run, I told you to run! Run, you killed my brother, today I want you to live a life worse than death. Now it is time for us to serve you well. "


    The man in the lead had not forgotten that Xi Jiu Er still had a hammer in his hand, so he did not dare approach her and only gave Xi Jiu Er a ruthless kick. Xi Jiu Er said in pain, "I will not let any of you go, I will dismember your corpses into ten thousand pieces."


    "Yo yo yo, we are so scared!" "Hahahaha ¡­" The leading man laughed out loud, as though he was laughing because Xi Jiu Er didn''t know what was going on in front of him. Xi Jiu Er clenched the awl tightly. She would not die here, she would not! Definitely not!


    Suddenly, he heard Feng Qing Cheng yell, "How dare you! You even dare to touch Wei Guogong''s granddaughter!"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Feng Qing Cheng with surprise in her heart, he did not expect that the one who would come and save him was him! But when she thought about it again, she understood. Liu Xiang must have gone to look for him.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at the battered Xi Jiu Er and felt a pang in his heart. He had even thought that Xi Jiu Er had already been... So what if she was, he still hoped for Xi Jiu Er to be fine. He thought that everything was not her fault, that these men deserved to die, so what? He was unwilling to see Xi Jiu Er hurt him.


    The leading man wanted Xi Jiu Er to be his hostage so that he could threaten Feng Qing Cheng and let him live. Thus, he quickly went to grab Xi Jiu Er, who had long since prepared to escape, so he held the hammer even tighter in his hand. The moment she saw the man reach out to grab her, she knew what was planning!


    She didn''t have time to do anything. With a whoosh, a stone pierced the man''s palm ¡­ The man let out a cry, and with it another scream. His other hand was also pierced through by the stone. He was in so much pain that he wanted to faint. In fact, he had indeed fainted before. The others were already trembling in fear, how could they still dare to resist?


    Xi Jiu Er''s legs felt a bit weak. She wanted to stand up, but was unable to. Feng Qing Cheng called out: "Jiu Er!" This call to Jiu Er seemed to come from another world.


    Feng Qing Cheng walked over to Xi Jiu Er''s side and realized that Xi Jiu Er''s body was trembling slightly. He said again and again, "Sorry, I''m late. I''m late ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er tried her best to speak in a calm voice, "No ¡­ You came just in time! "Thank you!" Then, she raised her pale face and gave him a sincere smile. "Really, just nice." Otherwise... Perhaps it was just a corpse, or perhaps ¡­ She did not dare to think further.


    Xi Jiu Er allowed Feng Qing Cheng to trap them, and then used the hairpin to stab the two of them. Half of the hairpin had sunk into the flesh, causing the two people to cry out in pain. They were men who didn''t have tough bones, so a single strike from them was enough to make them cry out in pain. Seeing the captivating red blood flowing out, Xi Jiu Er still maintained a calm face, with only a berserk fury in her eyes.


    After stabbing it dozens of times, was Xi Jiu Er able to calm down? Impossible! She had suffered so much, experienced so much, and almost lost her life.


    It was only then that she realized that being a bad person required courage and strength. Her body swayed, and she said to Feng Qing Cheng extremely politely: "Help me serve these few people, they took great care of me just now."


    Feng Qing Cheng seemed to be an expert in these things, and very quickly, shouts like that of a pig dying rang out. Those men couldn''t take the blows, and started begging for mercy after a short while. He seemed to know where the most painful place was, but he couldn''t die, so he kept on calling out to the man.


    Feng Qing Cheng asked indifferently, "How do you want them to die?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at that man''s price and his entire body shivered. How could she let them die so easily? Therefore ¡ª


    "Wait a moment." Xi Jiu Er said in a soft voice, "They said they want me to properly enjoy the human world. As the saying goes, good, good.


    When Feng Qing Cheng heard Xi Jiu Er say ''serve'', his anger burned. They were men, so it didn''t need him to know how a man would serve a woman. He looked at their dirty faces and wished he could kill them immediately. The leader screamed in pain.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought that his hand seemed to have touched her before, and felt a wave of disgust in her heart, and said: "Cut off his hand for me."


    Feng Qing Cheng did not have a blade, he immediately picked up a big rock and smashed it down, the leader fainted again from the pain. Xi Jiu Er said: "I''ll trouble you to smash all of their limbs, and throw them here to fend for themselves."


    "Alright." Feng Qing Cheng did not act sloppy at all. Xi Jiu Er was looking at the sky... Drunken Immortal Tavern. Very good!


    Feng Qing Cheng''s robes were filled with blood stains, which scattered all over his green robes like plum blossoms. With the wind blowing, the smell of blood gradually disappeared. Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Not bad, you look pretty good."


    "Is that so?" Feng Qing Cheng stared at her smiling face and said: "Actually you don''t have to smile."


    "Why don''t you laugh? Today, I escaped from a calamity, proving that Lord Buddha protected me. " Xi Jiu Er asked, blinking her eyes in confusion. The next moment, she fell into an embrace. Feeling somewhat uncomfortable, she said stiffly, "You, what are you trying to do?"


    "Actually, you don''t need to laugh. If you want to cry, just cry." Feng Qing Cheng''s gentle voice came from above his head. Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Don''t cry ¡­" Actually, she had thought that person was Prince Xian. Every time she was in danger, Prince Xian would suddenly appear.


    "Cry." Feng Qing Cheng did not give up.


    "Don''t cry, there''s nothing to cry about." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    "Cry."


    "Don''t cry."


    "Cry."


    "Don''t cry ¡­"


    "Cry."


    "..." "Don''t cry ¡­"


    "Cry."


    "I say, are you tired or not? I already told you not to cry, are you done yet?" Xi Jiu Er''s voice was choked with sobs, her head was buried tightly in Feng Qingcheng''s embrace, as she said in an extremely dissatisfied tone: "It''s all your fault, why are you yelling at me for nothing, look, you''ve made me cry!"


    This wasn''t the first time she had encountered such a thing, but this time, she was the most helpless. She had delayed for so long, yet no one had come, so she gave up. She wanted to save a breath to take care of Xi Wan Feng and the rest. Thus, she was not afraid, she was not afraid!


    "Wuu ¡­ wuu ¡­" What are you doing here so late? You should come quickly! " Xi Jiu Er grumbled as his body became softer and softer, sliding down. Finally, he unknowingly fell asleep. Feng Qing Cheng sat on the stone while carrying her, as if she was a child in his hands. So quiet, so wronged, so helpless ¡­


    When Xi Jiu Er woke up, she was already in Xi Mansion ¡­ Liu Shui and Liu Xiang were also there. She didn''t say anything and went to find Wei Guogong.

 C180

    Xi Wan Feng made Xia Er bring out the top-ranked ginseng from the palace''s storage room, and also took out the good stuff from the layer in his dressing case. The powder that was wrapped up in red paper, and then sprinkled the powder on top of the ginseng from generation to generation, was perfect for doing all of this.


    Xi Wan Feng''s face distorted and he passed it over to Xia Er: "Go give this to that little bitch Xi Jiu Er, just say that this is a gift from Prince Xian''s Mansion." Xi Jiu Er, you are truly lucky! When she was at the Drunken Immortal Tavern, she felt that something wasn''t right. Why hadn''t she returned for so long? Then each of them would go back to their own homes.


    He never expected that Xi Jiu Er would actually return safely. Xi Jiu Er!


    "Yes." Xia Er nodded.


    Xi Wan Feng''s face twisted in excitement, and suddenly shouted to Xia Er: "No, don''t say that it was Prince Xian''s Mansion who gave it to her, just say that it was Prince Xian who gave it to her." had misunderstood that it was a gift from the Prince Xian, maybe she would eat it.


    Xi Jiu Er had silver, what was not good enough to buy? Only a gift from the Prince Xian would be able to dispel Xi Jiu Er''s worries. Xi Wan Feng clenched his teeth and snorted coldly. Bitch, that is a poison that can seal one''s throat. Just you wait to die.


    Looking at Xia Er''s leaving figure, Xi Wan Feng''s eyes widened. Xia Er was a good servant girl. For a maid like this, she should stay by his side for a long time. But for Xi Jiu Er, she couldn''t care less.


    Xia Er did not see Xi Wan Feng give the ginseng medicine and knew that Xi Wan Feng was not joking around. For some reason, she felt a sense of unease that made her feel flustered.


    After arriving at the Xi Mansion, Xi Jiu Er was not yet in her residence. After waiting for a long while, Xia Er still could not find any trace of Xi Jiu Er, so she asked his subordinate when he would be back. She did not dare to ask Xi Jiu Er about the courtyard, so she caught a servant and asked her about it. That servant had only been here for a short while, how would she know about it?


    Xia Er could only wait. Seeing that the sun was about to set, he had no choice but to place the things in the kitchen, reminding herself repeatedly if it was for the Princess Laifu to eat, or the Prince Xian to give it to the Princess Laifu.


    The person in the kitchen was busy cooking dinner, and hurriedly nodded his head: "Miss Xia Er, don''t worry, we will remember it."


    Xia Er nodded and returned to the Prince Xian''s Mansion.


    The person in the kitchen placed the ginseng to the side after cooking it, and came over after a short while. He asked the old Madame if she had finished cooking, and the old Madame wanted to eat earlier today.


    "Alright, alright ¡­" The old lady in the kitchen quickly loaded the Madame with food, "Why is mother of joy here today?" He was usually the maid in the Old Madame''s courtyard.


    mother of joy laughed: "Since you have nothing to say, come here today." She glanced at the ginseng that was warming up and smelled it. She asked, "Who is this ginseng for?"


    "It was cooked for Princess Laifu."


    mother of joy was startled, shshethought that the old Madame''s health was not good, since she had ginseng, he should let the old Madame drink some too. Therefore, mother of joy asked her wife to get him a bowl too.


    The old Madame was in good spirits today. After drinking a bowl, she bled to death in a few blinks of an eye. Mother Xia was so scared that the bowl in her hand clattered to the ground as she screamed, "Someone come quickly, someone come quickly! Go find a doctor, go find a doctor!"


    "mother of joy, something happened ¡­ "Ahh!" A maid walked in and screamed. He was so scared that he didn''t know what to do. mother of joy caressed her eyes and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go find a doctor."


    "Yes, yes ¡­" The maidservant stumbled to his feet and went to find a doctor.


    "Old Madame... Old Madame ¡­ " Mother Xia shook the old Madame and became breathless. She was so frightened that she fell to the ground and suddenly thought of something and got the servants to tie up the old steward who was in charge of the kitchen.


    The matter of the old Madame having blood flowing out of her seven orifices immediately spread throughout the entire Xi Mansion. If the old Madame died, then there would be no problem at all for her to sit on the seat of Madame.


    "What happened to the old Madame?" The moment Third Wife entered, he smelled a bloody stench. Upon entering, he saw the Old Madame lying on the bed with blood flowing out of her seven orifices, her death looked extremely horrifying. Third Wife could not bear to watch, she dared not look, so she turned to ask mother of joy.


    "mother of joy, what''s going on?" Third Wife asked.


    mother of joy looked at Third Wife blankly: "I drank the ginseng I stewed for Princess Laifu... It''s all my fault, the old servant thought that the old Madame''s body was weak and that drinking the Princess Laifu''s ginseng soup was nothing much, so he made a small bowl for the old Madame and in the end ¡­ But in the end, it ended up like this for the old Madame ¡­ It''s all this old servant''s fault, it''s all this old servant''s fault. "


    mother of joy had served the old Madame for a lifetime, but he never thought that it was the mother of joy who indirectly caused Old Madame''s death. He slapped himself in the face with a look of despair.


    The Third Wife was currently in charge of the Xi Mansion, how could she handle such a huge matter alone? Go and find Xi Hong Sheng, and ask him to come back and take over. Xi Hong Sheng just happened to be back at home. Upon hearing that his mother was dead, he ran over to the old Madame''s room.


    "Master ¡­" Third Wife cried for a long time, his eyes were red and his face was filled with sorrow and despair. When Xi Hong Sheng walked in, he realized that his mother was in a miserable state. His eyes were still wide open even when his eyes were bleeding from all seven orifices, as if he had died with grievance.


    "mother!" Xi Hong Sheng called out, the doctor at his side said: "Master Xi, the Old Madame has already left."


    "mother!" Xi Hong Sheng immediately cried. A man cried like a child. Third Wife sneered in his heart, why is Xi Hong Sheng crying? Was it really the sad old Madame''s death? He was crying for mercy, lest he be called an unfilial son.


    "What the hell is going on?" Xi Hong Sheng cried more or less, and her sadness lessened by quite a bit. Did it hurt when the old Madame died? Of course it would hurt, but thinking about it, if the old Madame went to have her dowry, it would be her. The old Madame had a lot of treasures at her hands ¡­ Old Madame was already old and had been suffering from illness and pain recently. Although it was bad for her to eat, it was still a form of torture for her. It would be better to just die to save herself from suffering.


    "It''s like this. mother of joy went to the kitchen to get some food for Old Madame. Seeing that the kitchen was cooking ginseng, he asked for a small bowl for Old Madame. Who would have thought that after the old Madame ate the ginseng, she would bleed from her seven orifices and, within a few breaths, she died. " The Third Wife said: "This ginseng was given to Princess Laifu by him. She went to the heart-nourishing hall to get the medicine but she still hasn''t returned yet ¡­ The steward of the kitchen does not know. "


    Prince Xian? Xi Jiu Er? Toxic Ginseng...


    knew what kind of medicine was in the gourd after a series of attacks. Xi Wan Feng, it must be her. Even if she had married to the Prince Xian, she had been dealt with very miserably by Xi Jiu Er, so her reputation was pretty much gone.


    Xi Wan Feng wanted to take care of Xi Jiu Er in one move. It was a pity that the world was unpredictable and Xi Jiu Er was destined to escape this calamity. It was a pity that the old Madame was set up by her own granddaughter just like that.


    "Abominable ¡ª ¡ª Let''s go, we will go to Prince Xian right now, and demand justice from our mother." Xi Hong Sheng said aggressively as he led his servants to look for Prince Xian.


    When Xi Wan Feng, who had always been paying attention to the movements of the Xi Mansion, heard that the Xi Mansion was dead, he could not gather any information no matter how he asked. She was so happy that she almost sang a song.


    "Esteemed wangfei, His Excellency Xi has brought someone here ¡­" Xia Er''s face was very white, she had a faint premonition of something. In his heart, however, he comforted himself. No, no, he would be fine.


    "Is that so? I am definitely here to avenge this little bitch Xi Jiu Er. Go, invite my heartless and heartless father in. " Xi Wan Feng''s entire being could be considered to be blooming in the spring.


    "Father ¡­" Before Xi Wan Feng could say anything, he was slapped across the face by Xi Hong Sheng: "Unfilial daughter, you actually poisoned your Grandmother?"


    "mother, why can''t I understand what you''re saying?" Xi Wan Feng''s head exploded with a boom. What dead man? Could it be that the one who died wasn''t that bitch Xi Jiu Er, but the old Madame? Impossible, impossible.


    "Your Grandmother ate the ginseng you gave to Jiu Er, and she bled herself to death from all seven orifices. How do you explain that?" In the end, Xi Hong Sheng was still Xi Wan Feng''s father, and he knew what his own child''s nature was. Prince Xian Mu Qiu Shui would never do such a thing, it would not benefit either of the two families.


    Only Xi Wan Feng, Xi Wan Feng hated Xi Jiu Er, he knew the answer, but as the manager of Xi Family, of course he would like it when he has a big use for it. Xi Wan Feng marrying to the Prince Xian made him have a whole new level of respect for his daughter. However, all of the things that happened afterwards caused the Xi Family to lose all face.


    He started to hate this daughter of his.


    "Father, you ¡­ you misunderstand. Your daughter did not do that." Xi Wan Feng stuttered, his eyes shining: "Maybe it was Little Sister Jiu Er who did this?"


    "Bullshit." She hasn''t come back from heart-nourishing hall yet, how could she drug your mistress? And that ginseng of yours, I''ve never even taken it out from the kitchen. That old woman from the kitchen has been in the Xi Family all her life, and there are 30 or so people in her family. She wouldn''t be so stupid as to kill people. " Xi Hong Sheng enunciated each and every word, "Xi Wan Feng, you''re actually so vicious."


    "Father... You, you listen to my explanation... I, I really don''t know anything. I just bought the ginseng and had the maidservants deliver it to her. I never thought that there would be poison inside, I really never expected that. " Xi Wan Feng began to defend himself. If she was found guilty of murdering the old Madame, then she would become the unfilial granddaughter of the capital. She would be scolded by tens of thousands of people.


    No, she would not accept this.


    "Is that so?" Of course, Xi Hong Sheng would not believe that the First Lady was not a good person. Although she had always been obedient to her duty, some things had given Xi Hong Sheng a severe psychological trauma, one where she was bitten by a snake for ten years.


    "Father, you have to believe me ¡­" Xi Wan Feng pleaded, "What good is it to me for me to do this? I don''t like Jiu Er, but Jiu Er is my sister after all.

 C181

    "Wan Feng, you, how could you do such a thing? She''s your Grandmother." A sorrowful voice came over, and they immediately saw the ''First Lady'' being supported by Xi Jiu Er as she walked over. Xi Jiu Er smirked as she glanced at Xi Wan Feng, and instantly, Xi Wan Feng felt a chill down his spine.


    "You, what nonsense are you talking about? I didn''t kill the person at all." Xi Wan Feng shouted: "You are not my mother at all, you are merely someone who looks very similar to my mother. You aren''t her at all."


    Chun Hua''s face was filled with extreme grief, and she almost fainted on the spot. Luckily, she was hugged by Xi Jiu Er to prevent herself from fainting, so she covered her chest and was speechless for a long time, "You ¡­ "You, you unfilial daughter ¡­"


    "Father, the mother has already been ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was interrupted before he could finish his words. When she saw Xi Jiu Er, she felt as if she had seen a ghost. How could she know? Impossible, absolutely impossible.


    "Big sister, how can you talk to mother like that? She''s your mother." Xi Jiu Er had a sorrowful look on her face. "mother came here today to let you know your way back, so don''t continue to be wrong. You, on the other hand, are so heartless that you don''t even recognize mother.


    "Xi Jiu Er, continue pretending!" Xi Wan Feng gritted his teeth in hatred: "You two are colluding with each other to frame me, father ¡­ This medicine must have been concocted by Xi Jiu Er herself. There''s her hands in the kitchen, she is framing me. "


    Xi Wan Feng, just wait and see, today, I''m going to give you some dirty water. Xi Jiu Er, I won''t let you have your way today. If you didn''t do it, you did it.


    "Father, the old Madame treats me with great kindness. I have always been very filial to the old Madame, I definitely would not have such thoughts." Xi Jiu Er said as tears started to roll down Old Madame''s face. She had seen how good Old Madame was to everyone, and the entire Xi Mansion was watching.


    "My daughter ¡­" Just be honest with me... Even if mother dies, he will protect you. " Chun Hua rubbed his eyes until they were red.


    "mother, don''t be angry, big sister went astray. "She wanted to kill me, but I didn''t expect that she would actually let Grandmother drink the ginseng soup. If I knew earlier, if I knew earlier, I would have returned earlier. If I wanted to die, I should have died, Grandmother ¡­" When Xi Jiu Er said the last words, he was already very excited.


    Xi Wan Feng had once again witnessed Xi Jiu Er''s acting skills.


    "What else do you have to say for yourself?" Xi Hong Sheng believed that the medicine was given to him by Xi Wan Feng and that the medicine was meant for Xi Jiu Er.


    "Today, I will avenge the old Madame ¡­" Suddenly, a voice came out, mother of joy pounced at Xi Wan Feng like an evil spirit, grabbing and scratching him, he scared Xi Wan Feng and shouted: "Get lost, you disgraceful dog slave, get lost!"


    "Father, if you see that your elder sister is not respectful to the mother of joy, then I believe that she is disrespectful to the Old Madame as well." Xi Jiu Er said in disappointment: "Elder sister, when did you become like this? I can''t find anything like what I used to be ¡­ "Elder sister ¡­"


    mother of joy and Xi Wan Feng were fighting fiercely, Xi Wan Feng was battered and exhausted, how could she be a match for mother of joy? After a few rounds, only the two of them were fighting. No one came forward to pull them away. It was just ¡ª too intense.


    Xia Er''s small face was pale white, as if she had already anticipated her own ending. Xi Wan Feng would definitely drag him down to face the consequences.


    "Stop!" A loud shout came out, it was really Prince Xian. Prince Xian frowned as he looked at the two women fighting. Xi Wan Feng''s face was a mess, his hair was a mess and his clothes were all messed up. Just by scratching her face, he was able to tell the importance of a face to a woman.


    "What happened?" Prince Xian''s face did not look good, he stared at Xi Hong Sheng and said: "Master Xi, I hope you can give me an explanation."


    Xi Hong Sheng had always been in charge of this, so he told her the gist of it. Prince Xian was furious, was it because he found a woman that he was blind to fall in love with her? Get out of here, bitch. Thinking about it, Prince Xian felt an incomparable disgust in his heart. He glared at Xi Wan Feng fiercely: "Is there some kind of misunderstanding?"


    "Misunderstanding? Prince Xian, could it be that this old subject came here to accuse my daughter when I had nothing to do? " Xi Hong Sheng became excited: "I hope that Prince Xian can give this old one an explanation. After all, Xi Wan Feng is already an Princess Xian."


    Prince Xian turned his head to look at Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng took a cold breath and fiercely shook her head: "This is not done by me, it is definitely done by Xia Er. I told Xia Er to send the ginseng over, even if she did something, it might not necessarily be done by her."


    Xia Er kneeled on the ground and shook her head fiercely, "No, Servant didn''t do anything."


    "Not done? "Go to your room and search." A peculiar expression flashed past Xi Wan Feng''s eyes, Xia Er''s face immediately turned white. Needless to say, she knew that she was going to die this time ¡­


    "Men, go to Xia Er''s room and search." Prince Xian ordered.


    Not long later, the servant found a bag of items from Xia Er''s room, with a bit of powder on top. The Prince Xian called for a doctor to ask about it. The doctor said that the poison would cause people to bleed to death if they ate it.


    Xia Er''s body went limp on the ground, she glared fiercely at Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng, don''t open your eyes, Xia Er, there''s no other way, if you don''t die, then I''ll die. Don''t worry, I will take revenge for you. This bitch Xi Jiu Er has escaped death, I won''t let her do as she pleases.


    "Princess, why did you treat me like this?" Xia Er''s tears streamed down: "Since you''re so heartless, don''t blame Servant for being unjust ¡­ "Your Highness, with wangfei ¡­"


    Xia Er felt something pass through her body. Lowering her head and seeing that it was a hairpin, Xi Wan Feng stared at Xia Er with the hairpin in her hand. Xia Er knew too many secrets of hers, so he would definitely reveal it. At that time ¡­ She couldn''t imagine what she was going to face.


    "Princess, even if I become a ghost, I won''t let you off." Xia Er said word by word.


    "Xia Er, you killed my Grandmother. Today, I will avenge my Grandmother." Xi Wan Feng said word by word as he whispered into Xia Er''s ears, "Who asked you to speak such nonsense ¡­ Xia Er, go ahead. I will have Xi Jiu Er accompany you in death. "


    Hehe ¡­ You are truly very naive, you are not even a match for Princess Laifu at all. Okay, I''ll be waiting for you, waiting for the day that you don''t want Xi Jiu Er to kill you, I''ll definitely come and take your life.


    The blood trail grew larger and larger as Xia Er slowly walked to the bottom. She looked at Xi Wan Feng with eyes wide open, and died with grievances. A trace of blood leaked out from the corner of her mouth. Xi Wan Feng''s heart turned cold from her gaze, and he stood up with difficulty: "Everyone, as you can see, this matter has nothing to do with me. I wonder what deep hatred does she have for Little Sister Jiu Er, that she would be willing to kill Little Sister Jiu Er. "


    "That slut. She dares to use my name to harm others. Truly detestable." Xi Wan Feng kicked the dead Xia Er and said to Xi Hong Sheng: "Father, this is all the girl''s fault. Her daughter is innocent too."


    Xi Wan Feng cried as she felt wronged, her tears streaming down her face. She looked as if she had received an enormous grievance, and her crying made people want to fight for her injustice.


    None of the people present were fools. Xi Hong Sheng said, "Princess Xian, our Xi Family really doesn''t dare to get closer to Princess Hua-Yang. From now on, I, Xi Hong Sheng, will sever my father-daughter relationship with Princess Hua-Yang."


    "Father!" Xi Wan Feng was stupefied. Breaking the relationship between father and daughter? No way!


    Chun Hua was shocked: "Master... "Feng''er is your daughter, how can you ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng roared: "Shut up, you have to interrupt."


    Chun Hua shut her mouth bitterly, what she needed to do had finished, there was nothing left for her to do. She pursed her lips and covered her face as she silently cried. Whether she was really crying or just faking tears, it was fine as long as her eyes were red.


    "Father... How could you do that? " Xi Wan Feng shouted loudly, "Your daughter is really innocent ¡­"


    "Hmph, you and I already know what happened today, so I won''t say it out loud. I don''t dare to recognize this daughter of yours. " With a darkened face, Xi Hong Sheng led the group of people away. Xi Wan Feng collapsed onto the ground. He wanted to urge her to stay, but was unable to.


    If he lost to the Madame and lost troops, Xia Er would die, and the old Madame would die, so why wouldn''t Xi Jiu Er die? This is too much, does Xi Jiu Er have an immortal body? He looked at Prince Xian blankly, and his eyes were filled with strong disgust.


    Prince Xian hated her ¡­ Could it be that the medicine was ineffective?


    "You are too vicious." Prince Xian pursed his lips and turned away, before continuing, "In the future, you will solve your own matters, and I won''t protect you anymore."


    "Your Highness ¡­" No, don''t you care about me anymore? This humble one is your wangfei, your highness! " Xi Wan Feng shouted towards the back of Prince Xian, who left without looking back.


    She avoided a calamity, but was loathed and abandoned by the Prince Xian ¡­ Hahaha ¡­ Forget it, the Xi Family was useless to her, it didn''t matter at all. Her opponent was only Xi Jiu Er, and as long as Xi Jiu Er died in this life, she would go through everything.


    Xi Jiu Er, why aren''t you dying? Why not die?


    "Xia Er... If you have to blame something, blame it on me. If you have to blame something, blame it on that bitch Xi Jiu Er, she was the one who caused your death, if it wasn''t for her, you wouldn''t have died. " Xi Wan Feng stared at Xia Er''s corpse blankly: "This is all Xi Jiu Er''s fault."


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" A maid came over timidly.


    "What is it?" Xi Wan Feng raised his head and asked. She hadn''t fallen yet, so it was impossible for Xi Jiu Er to destroy her. She also couldn''t help but let Xi Jiu Er defeat her.


    "Just now, Princess Laifu gave Servant a piece of paper, and asked him to hand it over to wangfei ¡­" The servant did not dare to look at Xia Er''s corpse, she avoided the corpse and handed over the slip of paper to Xi Wan Feng, and when Xi Wan Feng opened it, he saw that it said: "Serves you right!" Xi Wan Feng sneered at the two big words.


    Xi Jiu Er, don''t be complacent, I will kill you, there will come a day like this.


    Breaking off the father-daughter relationship with Xi Wan Feng was not an impulsive action, he could feel that the Prince Xian was not fond of him, and Xi Wan Feng was already of no use to him. Xi Wan Feng did things so viciously that he did not acknowledge anyone as his own. Letting Xi Wan Feng go, Xi Hong Sheng felt that he had a long life.


    "Dammit ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng scolded: "Bitch."

 C182

    The death of the old Madame was said to be due to sudden death due to an old illness. The Xi Family had arranged the old Madame''s funeral, and many people had come. Xi Wu Er had come, but Xi Wan Feng had not, so Xi Wan Rong was already half dead.


    Xi Wu Er was dressed simply and elegantly, her spirit and vitality was also very good. She really did not expect that the old Madame would suddenly die, how could she say that she died just like that? After handling the funeral for five days, Han Chang Sheng as his son-in-law and Prince Xian as his son-in-law, always came to attend the funeral.


    Xi Jiu Er''s good friends Yun Qing Ran and Chu Ge also came over. Xi Jiu Er was still a lady who had yet to leave the pavilion, so she could not hold on to this matter.


    Yun Qing Ran asked softly: "Old Madame was fine originally, why did she suddenly die?"


    "Exactly." Chu Ge asked, what exactly happened?


    Xi Jiu Er treated them as good friends, so he did not hide anything from the two of them. After the two of them heard this, their bodies trembled: "This Xi Wan Feng is really too terrifying, the pitiful old Madame just died like that without anyone knowing. Luckily, Jiu Er, you did not drink ¡­"


    "That''s right, this Xi Wan Feng is way too extreme, we have to be careful around her the next time we see her." They were all young ladies from influential families. It was unavoidable for Miss s of aristocratic families to scheme, so they could only react with caution.


    Xi Jiu Er did not say anything.


    She was still very sad that the old Madame died. After her rebirth, the old Madame treated her quite well. That night, she came back to find out that the old Madame had suddenly died. Unfortunately, the murderer was not punished ¡­


    Old Madame, don''t worry, I will take revenge for you.


    "Qing Ran, how are you and General Shi Chen Wen doing?" In her previous life, Yun Qing Ran had married a general. At that time, she didn''t care about what was happening in the outside world, so she didn''t pay attention to it.


    Yun Qing Ran said unnaturally: "Why did you bring him up?" With a bashful expression, it was obvious that the young girl was in love.


    "Eh, there''s a problem." Chu Ge''s voice was very long and her face was full of mockery.


    Xi Jiu Er agreed, "That''s right, there must be a problem inside. Although the background of the General Shi is a little lacking, the title of General on him is something that I obtained from my own person. One look at him is enough to tell that he is a capable person, unlike those young masters from the aristocratic families who are just embroidery pillows. "


    Chu Ge nodded her head: "That''s right, although she doesn''t look much, but it''s most important for us women to look at her character when marrying. If a man were to be handsome and unordinary, but had a glib tongue, and had no sense of responsibility, wouldn''t marrying him be suffering?"


    "That''s right." Xi Jiu Er said.


    "You, what exactly do you mean by this ¡­ What was good about that man? He didn''t look anything good. His personality was crude and straightforward. He always liked to bully others. If he''s really that good, why doesn''t any girl like him? " Yun Qing Ran said angrily: "He caused me to lose such a huge amount of face last time, he didn''t say a single word, and didn''t even apologize ¡­ "This is so infuriating."


    Xi Jiu Er and Chu Ge looked at each other and saw each other''s smiling expressions. Yun Qing Ran was afraid that she didn''t even know that she liked him.


    "Tell me, wouldn''t I suffocate to death when I see such a person with him in the future?" "No fun at all. It''s really boring." Yun Qing Ran looked up to see Xi Wan Feng and Chu Ge both looking at him with a smile.


    "What are you guys looking at me for? Is there something on my face? " Yun Qing Ran caressed his face.


    "Hahaha, our Miss Yun''s heart is moved." Chu Ge laughed: "You don''t know? The way you talked just now was as if you had already fallen for the General Shi. "


    "You, you''re lying." Yun Qing Ran''s face became even redder. "I, I''m not telling you guys."


    "Sorry, sorry ¡­" Xi Jiu Er laughed and said.


    "I, I''m not shy!" Yun Qing Ran covered her face and said: "You, you''re all too bad."


    "Alright, alright, it''s our fault. Your Miss Yun, please don''t take it to heart, okay?" Xi Jiu Er saw that she was extremely embarrassed and immediately apologized.


    "Alright, alright, we won''t tease you anymore." Chu Ge said.


    Yun Qing Ran then pouted and muttered: "You guys better not let us talk about things in the future, otherwise I won''t be unhappy."


    "Yes, yes, yes. Next time we promise we won''t. " Xi Jiu Er immediately replied.


    "Mm ¡­" Yun Qing Ran laughed and said, then reverted back to being that seemingly heartless person.


    Chu Ge suddenly asked: "Qing Ran, where is that bastard sister of yours? What have you been doing recently? "


    "Hmph, what else can I do? Make the Grandmother happy, then suppress me when there''s nothing to do. Hmph, last time I proved that the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting are better than her. She seems to find me even more unpleasant to look at. " Yun Qing Ran disdainfully said: "These are all things that cannot be put on stage. They only need to do some useless things every day."


    "Alright, alright, which family doesn''t have a few disobedient concubinage?" Seeing that Yun Qing Ran was angry, Chu Ge immediately comforted him.


    Princess Rongwang, Lady Yun, as well as many old Madame who had good relations with Elder Xi were here. They did not know the truth about Yun Lao Fu''s death, and Xi Jiu Er had even specially covered up the truth.


    Old Madame died rather miserably, let me have some dignity. If anyone found out that the old Madame had been poisoned to death by his own granddaughter, they would definitely say that the old Madame was harsh on his granddaughter, and that was why his granddaughter came to kill him without regard for filial piety.


    The funeral was handled by the Third Wife, both inside and outside, she took care of it all. Although she was just the concubinage, she was like the mistress of the Xi Mansion right now. As for Chun Hua, who was pretending to be the First Lady, he was claiming that she was sick and gorging herself on food and drinks in the house.


    After the funeral, the Xi Mansion did not have a backbone, and everyone in the house did not look too good. Today ¡ª ¡ª Liu Xiang carried a pot of rose over, and it opened very nicely.


    "Princess, do you like it? Servant brought it back when she thought it was beautiful. " Liu Xiang laughed and said.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw that, the opening was really beautiful, she immediately liked it and ordered: Let''s put it by the window.


    "Alright." Liu Xiang laughed.


    Liu Xiang laughed as she placed the Chinese rose flower by the window. She looked left and right and found them extremely pleasing to the eyes! Xi Jiu Er felt that it was just a pot of flowers, and not an expensive type.


    In a secluded place, Xi Wan Feng had secretly told him that he had a way to deal with Xi Jiu Er! Xi Wan Feng obviously did not believe him. This man was incapable of doing more than what he needed to do, and nothing he told him was satisfactory!


    Zhong Tang Jun saw that Xi Wan Feng could not believe it, and mysteriously took out something from his bosom. There were some disgusting worms inside, and just looking at it would make people want to puke!


    What was this disgusting thing? Xi Wan Feng frowned, he was extremely unhappy! What was this idiot trying to do now?!


    "Hehe, this is a worm unique to Wind Nation. The favorite smell of this type of bug is the Moon Season, the moment you smell the aroma of the Chinese rose flower, it drills into your body!" Zhong Tang Jun laughed: "I''ve bribed one of the servants in Xi Mansion, and the servant has already moved the Chinese rose flower to Xi Jiu Er''s room! When the time comes, Xi Jiu Er''s body will be filled with the scent of Chinese rose flower, and these bugs will enter their bodies, and they will become angry after a while! "


    When Xi Wan Feng heard it, he was overjoyed: "This is a good treasure, with this, that bitch Xi Jiu Er will definitely die a horrible death!"


    "When the time is ripe, we can leave!" Zhong Tang Jun said.


    Xi Wan Feng nodded and chuckled. With this, Xi Jiu Er would just wait for death!


    "Xi Jiu Er, this little bitch, is cunning. We have to do our best to ensure that everything goes well, we need to plan carefully before we can kill her!" Xi Wan Feng''s entire face began to contort. Xi Jiu Er, I will definitely let you die an ugly death. Every time she mentioned Xi Jiu Er, she felt like she was going crazy. Could it be that Xi Jiu Er had the protection of the gods, so why did she let this bitch escape every single time? She couldn''t accept it!


    "Don''t worry, we will definitely kill that bitch. As long as you are angry at someone you hate, I will not let them go. " Zhong Tang Jun said lovingly.


    No matter how much she loathed this man, she still had to greet him with a smile. This was because she needed this man''s help right now! I need his help with something. Therefore, Xi Wan Feng cupped Zhong Tang Jun''s face and said with deep emotion: "I knew you were the best to me. I wouldn''t have felt that I had the courage to live without you."


    "I will protect you for the rest of my life." Zhong Tang Jun stated his oath.


    Xi Wan Feng acted as if he was moved, and the next thing to do was for Xi Wan Feng to reward him. She hated him greatly, but she had no other choice. All of this was thanks to this bitch Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er, even if I die, I won''t let you go.


    Xi Jiu Er felt that the Chinese rose flower''s scent was very strong, it did not seem like the scent of a normal Chinese rose flower, it was truly strange.


    "Liu Shui, do you think that the Chinese rose flower''s fragrance is a little abnormal?" Xi Jiu Er asked Liu Shui who had just entered.


    Liu Shui took a whiff and thought for a moment, "Hmm, the fragrance of the flower is indeed a little strong, but Servant doesn''t feel that there''s anything wrong with this!"


    Xi Jiu Er thought, could it be that she was overthinking it? Perhaps she really was wrong.


    In the last ten days or so, Xi Jiu Er felt that something was off. It had been so long, and it was still the same as before.


    Xi Jiu Er squinted her eyes as she ordered Liu Shui to come in and take the flower out of the pot. With one hand, Liu Shui pulled the Chinese rose flower out of the flower pot. On the root, he saw a lot of white floating things, and it had a slightly fishy smell.


    "Do you know what this is, Liu Shui?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    Liu Shui nodded his head: "Servant has seen it before, many gardeners know how to use this kind of thing, if you use this kind of thing you can make it even more eye-catching with flowers, and the time will be longer. However, this thing has one drawback, which is that the fragrance of the flowers is very strong and it''s hard to disperse. "

 C183

    Xi Jiu Er smelled the scent of Chinese rose flower as expected, and Liu Shui''s body also smelled the same. Even Liu Xiang who came in had a thick scent of Chinese rose flower. Xi Jiu Er did not really like this smell, she kept feeling that this smell was strange, it was so dense that it was outrageous.


    "Throw the Chinese rose flower out." Xi Jiu Er said with an uneasy feeling in her heart.


    "Yes." Liu Shui nodded his head and carried the Chinese rose flower out. Liu Xiang looked at it unwillingly, she knew that Xi Jiu Er must have had her way with him, and it was definitely not because the flowers were ugly. Look at those beautiful flowers!


    "Princess, Servant has brought the soap horn over today. Which one do you want to choose?" Only by doing this would the clothes that they washed would have a nice smell. Especially those noble Miss, in order to make themselves more attractive, they would also choose to use unique soap corners.


    Xi Jiu Er was not interested in such things, as long as it did not smell bad, she would be fine: "Use whatever you used in the past now."


    Liu Xiang had mastered the art of food and clothing for Xi Jiu Er, so she quickly replied, "Princess, there''s a lot of soap points in the market now and there''s also a lot of them. Servant specially ordered them to bring some over. These people were all very famous in the capital. Miss wanted to see if there were any that caught her eye, and if there were any that didn''t, she would change them to the previous ones.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that Liu Xiang had good intentions in making herself look beautiful. As a result, when Xi Jiu Er looked at the few soaphorn in Liu Xiang''s hands, she discovered that the scent of Chinese rose flower s could be smelled again. The Chinese rose flower''s scent was a little fragrant, but it was still not so popular among the Miss s.


    No matter what, Chinese rose flower s were not such a big problem. But ¡ª Xi Jiu Er picked up on other things and waved Liu Shui over: "Liu Shui, come over."


    "What about the princess?" Liu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er''s serious face, could it be that there was a problem with the sapling? Liu Xiang was also frightened as he asked worriedly, "Princess, is there a problem with this?"


    "It''s hard to say right now, but we''ll find out in a while." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I was only guessing."


    Liu Shui went over to take a closer sniff and discovered a problem, "Princess, there''s the scent of Chinese rose flower inside."


    That''s right. Xi Jiu Er was not mistaken, it was indeed a Chinese rose flower. The Chinese rose flower was also a Chinese rose flower, it seemed like someone wanted to borrow the Chinese rose flower to kill him.


    Xi Jiu Er muttered to herself, if she wanted to know who was pulling the strings, she had to start from the Chinese rose flower.


    Liu Xiang''s heart sank, "Princess, is there a problem with this soap? Servant... Servant... "


    "It''s alright, you should just wash it with the soap from before." Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, then warned Liu Xiang, "You have to keep an eye on this matter at the laundry, and tell them not to wash it for me with the Chinese rose flower."


    "Princess, don''t worry. Servant knows." Liu Xiang nodded.


    "Liu Shui, I''ll leave this matter to you. Take a look at who gave that pot of Chinese rose flower to Liu Xiang, and also look at those black horns. What I want to know is who''s behind this, you know? " Xi Jiu Er emphasized on the mastermind.


    "Yes, Servant will go and check right now." Liu Shui said.


    "Go." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    This matter passed just like that. At night, Liu Shui told Xi Jiu Er all the information he got: "Princess, Servant will stop after checking for clues, but one thing is certain. This means that someone wants to target us and kill us."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face appeared in Xi Jiu Er''s head. Could it be that her plan did not succeed and her plan did not succeed? It was not impossible, she and Mubai had already reached an agreement. With Mubai secretly helping her, she could achieve twice the results with half the effort.


    "Continue investigating, people always have to speak, it depends on what method you use." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I guess that this might be another conspiracy of Xi Wan Feng''s, we have to be cautious. She could even use the move ''Blood Sealing Throat Poison''. Who knows what kind of move it will be. "


    "Princess, Servant will go right away." Liu Shui had gone on this trip for a long time, and only returned early the next morning. It seems like she didn''t sleep well last night. He probably didn''t sleep all night.


    "Princess, Servant has found out. Everything was done by Zhong Tang Jun."


    Zhong Tang Jun? Zhong Tang Jun was now one of Xi Wan Feng''s dogs. After Xi Wan Feng gave him some benefits, he began to work for Xi Wan Feng. From the looks of it, the mastermind was Xi Wan Feng.


    It was really strange. Why did he deliberately use the Chinese rose flower''s fragrance? Xi Jiu Er thought for a while and said: "Since they have dug a trap for us to jump into, we cannot let them down. Since the Chinese rose flower like them so much, we might as well make a plan."


    Xi Wan Feng had been watching Xi Jiu Er''s movements the entire time, and only after discovering that Xi Jiu Er had brought out the basin of Chinese rose flower outside, and thought that she had detected something, and later discovered that she had even brought back a large pot of Chinese rose flower back, did he heave a sigh of relief. Xi Jiu Er''s intelligence was something she had long accepted. She was afraid that this bitch would discover something, and it was really ¡­


    Xi Wan Feng warned Zhong Tang Jun, "Watch out for this bitch Xi Jiu Er! Don''t forget, our child was killed by Xi Jiu Er, we can''t let her have a good ending, you know? "


    "Don''t worry, I will definitely let that bitch Xi Jiu Er grind her bones to dust." Zhong Tang Jun shouted.


    Xi Wan Feng nodded, this man had no brains, but he was an obedient man. What she needed right now was someone obedient. As long as Xi Wan Feng gave him a treat, he would be as obedient as a dog. She didn''t want Zhong Tang Jun''s liking, she wanted the Prince Xian.


    "Princess, you have the scent of a Chinese rose flower on you. It smells really good." Third Wife said. The two of them bumped into each other in the flower garden. Third Wife brought Xi Ping, and Xi Ping looked like white and fat, he was very adorable. He liked Xi Jiu Er a lot too. It was probably because he had drank Xi Jiu Er''s spring water before, and Xi Jiu Er''s body had another unique aura.


    Xi Ping wanted Xi Jiu Er to hug him no matter what, so Xi Jiu Er hugged him and immediately started chuckling. Third Wife smiled gently: "My mother can''t even compare to you, Princess."


    Xi Ping twisted his bottom and placed a comfortable position in Xi Jiu Er''s embrace as he fell into a deep sleep. Xi Jiu Er''s heart was very soft. She had a special kind of feeling for Xi Ping.


    "This child... I was coaxing him for a long time but he still didn''t sleep. The Third Wife dotingly said, "Princess, we''ll be going back first."


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Looking at the flowers in the garden, Xi Jiu Er frowned and went to the Health Training Hall. Because the Lifestyle Hall had Xiao Feng, it was even more popular than before. Every day, there would be an endless stream of ladies surrounding Xiao Feng, asking her to treat her illness. Some of the aunties even asked Xiao Feng if she was married and how well her daughter was doing ¡­


    Xiao Feng had a very good temper as she dealt with everyone.


    "This man''s temper is not ordinary." ex-sister-in-law came out to greet him.


    Xi Jiu Er always had a strange feeling about Xiao Feng, this man. This kind of feeling came from the fact that they had once felt each other before ¡­ was not surprised that a woman would always have a different feeling towards the first man. Furthermore, not only had she previously taken advantage of others, she had also knocked them out. Seeing that she had nothing to say, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was a little strange.


    "Princess, what are you doing here?" ex-sister-in-law asked. The news of Old Madame''s death surprised ex-sister-in-law. Xi Jiu Er had given Old Madame a very good medicine, why did she say that she would die just like that?


    Xi Jiu Er said: "I want a type of medicine that can remove the Chinese rose flower''s fragrance from my body."


    "Princess, this way please." The ex-sister-in-law placed Xi Jiu Er in the guest room and in a while, Xiao Feng came in. No, to be exact, Feng Qing Cheng had entered. Feng Qing Cheng was a very beautiful man. He had a clean face and a clean temperament, and every move he made carried a noble aura.


    "This commoner greets Princess Laifu." Feng Qing Cheng bowed.


    Xi Jiu Er had never talked about emotions in her previous life and knew nothing about emotions. Although Prince Xian had confessed to him that she liked him, she rejected him inwardly because she had not yet avenged her great hatred, saying that his love was too ethereal. But Feng Qing Cheng was different, he never asked her anything, just calmly looked at her, causing her to be embarrassed to the point of flustered.


    "Get up." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. The reason the ex-sister-in-law asked him to come was definitely because he had a way to solve her problems?


    Pa, Feng Qing Cheng''s slender fingers moved away, and a beautiful little porcelain bottle was placed on the table. The pattern was very beautiful, yes, she hated the exquisite workmanship, it seemed like this was not an ordinary little porcelain bottle.


    "Princess, as long as this object is spread on the dress, the fragrance on the dress will instantly disappear without a trace. This medicine is usually used to remove the odour of certain people. " Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently.


    Xi Jiu Er grinned: "Really? "Then I''ll be troubling you."


    "Being able to serve the princess is my honor, I don''t want to be smashed by stones and faint." The interest in Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes flashed.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed his lips, her face uncontrollably flushed red, and her head couldn''t help but think of that night ¡­ Why couldn''t she understand what the other two meant? She pursed her lips and left in a hurry, not even hearing ex-sister-in-law''s shouts.


    Xi Jiu Er only thought, no, he had to get this person out of the heart-nourishing hall, otherwise, it would be embarrassing to be able to see him every single time. At the sight of this man, she could not help but think of the tragedy she had suffered that night.


    "Princess."


    "¡­"


    "Princess ¡­"


    "¡­"


    "Princess!"


    "Huh?" Only now did Xi Jiu Er realize that Liu Shui was calling him, and asked blankly: "What''s wrong, what''s the matter?"


    "Princess, you''re heading in the wrong direction. Our carriage isn''t here ¡­" Over there. " Liu Shui pointed in the opposite direction, with his eyes curiously staring at Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and turned, walking in the opposite direction.


    Not long after, the Mubai''s banquet arrived. As the younger sister of the Mubai, she planned to shine greatly this time. When she reached the age of Engagement, if the emperor took a fancy to her this time ¡­ Although the Mubai did not allow her sister to enter the palace to fight for her love, how could she know what her sister was thinking?

 C184

    Using his birthday banquet to find a husband for his younger sister was also one of Mubai''s main goals. Her other objective was ¡ª She knew that Xi Wan Feng wanted to harm Xi Jiu Er, so she had to use this opportunity to push him.


    had given birth to a prince this time. Although his identity had not been promoted, with the protection of the prince, his identity in the future could be easily imagined. This prince was the eldest son of the emperor.


    If Mubai becomes the Queen, if Mubai''s son becomes the Crown Prince ¡­ This crown prince became the emperor again, aiya ¡­ It was better to hurry up and curry favor with them. Therefore, there were many people present this time, and the gifts they sent were also very precious. Of course, the Miss Zheng had also become the capital''s hot and bare handed Miss, and those who came to ask for marriage were about to step over the threshold.


    Xi Jiu Er pondered for a while, before deciding to give the little prince something. Mubai was not lacking in anything. Xi Jiu Er had her children create a golden lock and a series of other things. She also had the best craftsmen in the capital to carve the hundred characters of fortune.


    This time, the person who came was Madame Zhao, who had never been pregnant before. Everyone was shocked because Madame Zhao was pregnant. That posture ¡­ Two maidservants stood on both sides of him, followed by two maidservants. Madame Zhao shouted the moment she stepped out: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"


    When he thought about Madame Zhao''s temper and how many tricks sshe had played to get his son, he couldn''t even tell. If something were to happen to her, Madame Zhao would probably kill people as well.


    Everyone moved far away, afraid that they would bump into Madame Zhao. When Madame Zhao saw Xi Jiu Er, he immediately pulled on Xi Jiu Er''s hand and said, "Princess Laifu ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er pinched her hand. Madame Zhao was startled and immediately said: "Princess Laifu, it has been a long time since we last met. I heard that Old Madame Xi died? "Oh, I was pregnant at the time, or I would have gone over to offer my condolences."


    Madame Zhao rarely got close to people, because no one could stand her straightforwardness, hence she had very few friends. Everyone was shocked, since when did Xi Jiu Er have such a good relationship with her? Seeing that the Madame Zhao was so happy, could it be that the rumors were true?


    "Madame Zhao is too courteous. With your kind heart, Old Madame will be very happy to know about it." Xi Jiu Er laughed. Xi Jiu Er would usually hold onto this kind of banquet, in case she had to deal with a large group of Madame s later.


    "Haha ¡­" Madame Zhao sat down slowly and rubbed her bulging stomach. In a moment, Master Zhao also came, she immediately came to take care of Madame Zhao, causing her to be extremely beautiful. The Madame at the side revealed an envious expression, especially those who were not pregnant at all.


    The Madame Zhao was enjoying her husband''s service. Humph, those Madame people said that she was a hens that couldn''t lay eggs, I will show you all that today, I will lay eggs.


    "Jiu Er." It was Yun Qing Ran''s voice, with Old Master Yun and Lady Yun at her side, Yun Qing Ran said: "Father, mother, I''m going to play with Jiu Er, I''ll be back in a while."


    "Go on, be careful." Lady Yun said.


    "Let''s go." Yun Qing Ran pulled Xi Jiu Er to another remote place. Xi Jiu Er was a little confused, but the sweet scent covered her mouth and signaled Xi Jiu Er with her eyes. Xi Jiu Er turned her head and saw Shi Chen Wen.


    So that''s how it is, Xi Jiu Er didn''t expose her and faked a question: "Qing Ran, what''s wrong with you?"


    "Nothing." Yun Qing Ran looked towards Shi Chen Wen''s direction without leaving a single trace, and then quickly retracted her gaze and said, "Jiu Er, the Chinese rose flower on your body is really special."


    "You want to say smelly, right?" Xi Jiu Er rolled her eyes.


    "Hehe, who would use a Chinese rose flower''s incense?" Yun Qing Ran chuckled: "Your taste is really strange."


    Xi Jiu Er revealed a profound smile, I ask you, "Why is your little sister Shu also here?"


    "Of course it''s to beg Grandmother. Grandmother will order mother to bring her here." Yun Qing Ran pouted: "I hate her the most, how could she, a concubinage, come to this kind of occasion? And there''s also the Grandmother, he''s really too biased. "


    "Since we all hate her, why don''t we tease her a bit?" Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought of a plan. When Yun Qing Ran thought about how skilled she was, he immediately said, "You have a lot of skills, tell me what method you''ll use."


    "If you don''t say that my Chinese rose flower''s smell is bad, we will let her be infected by the Chinese rose flower''s aura too. However, Qing Ran, I must tell you something, someone purposely tainted me with the Chinese rose flower''s scent, their goal is probably to punish me ¡­" Xi Jiu Er did not want to lie to her friends.


    Yun Qing Ran immediately said, "What, someone wants to frame you again? "This is too much. Who is it? I''ll go beat her up." She paused before continuing, "I would rather Yun Qing be injured than to let you be hurt. Jiu Er... You are my best friend, and I don''t want you to be unharmed. "


    "Qing Ran... I don''t know what the other party is up to, so I hope that you can prepare yourself. " Xi Jiu Er said.


    Yun Qing Ran nodded her head: "En, I understand."


    Xi Jiu Er gave an item to Liu Shui so that the powder from his Chinese rose flower would be scattered all over his body. Liu Shui accepted the order and left, then he sprinkled the powder Feng Qing Cheng had given him onto his body. The Chinese rose flower fragrance on his body disappeared without a trace.


    Liu Shui returned very quickly. "Princess, everything has been completed."


    "Then we''ll be watching a good show from now on." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. pouted and said: "Xi Wan Feng is truly capable. There are so many servants in the capital that have yet to leave the pavilion wanting to marry Prince Xian, but she succeeded in doing so. Hmph!"


    "Could it be that you like Prince Xian?" Xi Jiu Er teased.


    "Prince Xian? "Pfft, I don''t like him at all. What''s so good about him?" Yun Qing Ran pouted.


    "Then do you have someone you like?" Xi Jiu Er asked with a smile.


    "I, where did I get someone I like?" Yun Qing Ran said.


    "Princess Laifu?" When Xi Wan Feng''s voice came, Xi Jiu Er and the others turned and saw Xi Wan Feng''s figure. They immediately bowed, but that was only for show, they did not take it seriously. Xi Wan Feng hated this to the point that his teeth itched. Why did Xi Jiu Er, this slut, want to get the likes of these noble family''s Miss s?


    "What are you all talking about here?" Xi Wan Feng asked with a smile.


    "Nothing." Chu Ge pursed her lips and laughed.


    Yun Qing Ran said in a hoarse voice: "Let''s say that Princess Xian really has a way to do it, how many people did not succeed in marrying Prince Xian, and I wonder what method Princess Xian used to succeed?" She paused for a moment before continuing, "Could it be that Princess Xian used a different method?"


    "What other way is this? Prince Xian wanted to marry me at that time, I was also very surprised." Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed, and said with a beaming smile: "Perhaps it''s Heaven''s pity."


    "It''s not the pity of the heavens. It''s unknown who was blind to marry a girl of the same character as the Princess Xian." Yun Qing Ran would not let him off so easily. For the sake of how quickly she could argue, she had to at least anger Xi Wan Feng to death.


    Xi Wan Feng sneered: "What does Miss Yun mean by saying this? Could it be that Miss Yun likes Prince Xian? If it really can make Prince Xian accept you as his secondary wife. "


    "Wangfei? "Pfft, if I really have set my eyes on the Prince Xian, I''ll have the Emperor bestow me with a marriage. If I want to be the main wife, then you can just stay there." Yun Qing Ran spat, making Xi Wan Feng''s face turn green and red.


    Xi Wan Feng coldly snorted. If Yun Qing Ran really did that, then it was really possible for her to leave the position of main wife. Who let Yun Qing Ran''s status be higher than her? Hmph, today her goal is Xi Jiu Er, so ¡­ She walked over and whispered, "Little Sister Jiu Er, can we talk alone? I ¡­"


    Eh, why is the scent of the Chinese rose flower on Xi Jiu Er''s body gone? Xi Wan Feng was shocked, but luckily he had already prepared the extra Chinese rose flower powder and scattered it all over her body.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: Why can''t I say it here? They are all my friends, and they will not turn a blind eye to me. "


    Xi Wan Feng said stiffly: "About this, what I have said are all private words, it is not appropriate like this ¡­"


    "Oh? What did he say? Was it an apology? Grandmother was poisoned to death because of your servant girl, can you promise you that this had nothing to do with you? " Xi Jiu Er deliberately raised her voice: "Your servant girl, give me the blood seal throat poison, do you dare say that you do not have one here? You are my big sister, as well as Xi Family''s Miss ¡­ No, father has already chased you out of the Xi Family ¡­ In the future, you will no longer be my big sister. "


    Outsiders were not very clear about the Xi Family, they only heard that Old Madame Xi relapsed and suddenly died, but it didn''t seem like it at all. Xi Jiu Er did not seem to want to reveal this matter, but she had no choice but to poke around, because she had already seen Xi Wan Feng sniffing his clothes!


    It was Xi Wan Feng who wanted to harm him. Old Madame ¡ª I will use your name to spread Xi Wan Feng''s bad reputation far and wide today. I will avenge you.


    "You, you slandered me." Xi Wan Feng panicked, her image was not looking good to begin with, but now it seemed like the snow had turned into ice.


    "Slander you? Why should I slander you? I have no enmity with you, so why should I slander you? " Xi Jiu Er said aggressively: "Let''s go, I don''t want to see you."


    "You!" Xi Wan Feng snorted, flung his sleeves and left.


    Once they left, Yun Qing Ran was the first to cry out, "Jiu Er, could it be that what you said is true? Did her servant really poison Old Madame? "


    Xi Jiu Er saw that many people were listening intently, and said: "That day when I went to heart-nourishing hall, when I returned, I heard the news of Grandmother''s sudden death, and investigated it, it turned out to be because Grandmother drank the ginseng that Princess Xian gifted me before dying."


    Yun Qing Ran interrupted: "Why did she send you the ginseng for no reason?"


    "I was sick a while ago ¡­" Xi Jiu Er continued, "And then, she went to ask around. Only then did she find out that it was her maid who had done it ¡­"


    Yun Qing Ran spat: "What are you trying to do, servant? That maidservant must have eaten the heart of a leopard!

 C185

    A maid dared to harm her master? How much guts must she have? It would have been impossible if no one had ordered it. This Xi Wan Feng is really malicious!


    Chu Ge frowned: "She did not succeed, I am afraid she will not let this go easily, she will definitely give you another plan to deal with you, Jiu Er, you better be careful."


    "That''s right. There are all kinds of poison that can cause one''s throat to be sealed, so you should be careful." Yun Qing Ran said. When it was about time, everyone walked into the main hall. At this time, Miss Zheng came over, dressed like a proud peacock.


    Originally, her appearance wasn''t very outstanding. But now, not only did she dress up in such a grand manner, it even covered up her unique characteristics and past them. Instead, she was no longer beautiful. Her appearance caused many of the Miss s to despise her. These famous beauties all learned how to dress themselves since young.


    On the other hand, the Miss Zheng felt that she was the most beautiful person in the world. Not just a sigh.


    Xi Wan Rong was the number one beauty, but unfortunately, she was kicked out of her family and became the concubinage.


    Speaking of which, the Xi Family made people feel that there were a lot of fun. , the direct disciple of the Xi Family, had heard that she was sent outside to be raised in the manor. It was Madame Xi and a certain man who secretly gave Xi Hong Sheng a green hat.


    The abilities of this Madame was not average, her own daughter had been raised to this extent, although the eldest daughter, Xi Wan Feng, was slightly better, but her reputation was terrible, and she had somehow married the Prince Xian, becoming her main wife. This made many people curious, it was the Prince Xian who took the initiative to ask for it.


    The way everyone looked at Xi Hong Sheng slowly became interested. Xi Wan Feng''s thoughts were not here for a long time, so why did the Chinese rose flower fragrance from his body disappear? Had she discovered something? Fortunately, she had prepared some poison and gave it to a palace maid who bought it. When he looked up, he saw everyone looking at him with looks of contempt, ridicule, disdain, and so on.


    She was shocked and didn''t know what had happened. When they looked at Xi Jiu Er again, the shocked expression in their eyes turned into admiration, and the resentment in their hearts was immediately born. Hmph, just you all wait, just wait and see how Xi Jiu Er dies.


    Xi Jiu Er sat down, and Xi Wan Feng gave a palace maid a glance. The palace maid brought out a cup of tea, and when it was Xi Jiu Er''s turn, ''accidentally'', he splashed the tea onto Xi Jiu Er''s body, causing her eyes to flash.


    "Please spare my life, Princess. Servant is clumsy. Please punish me." The palace maid plopped to the ground and kowtowed.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "What are you doing? Those who don''t know what I''m doing think I''m killing the innocent. "Get up."


    "Princess, your dress is dirty. Why don''t you go change it?" The palace maid heaved a sigh of relief and suggested.


    "Jiu Er, I have an extra long skirt, pass it to me." Yun Qing Ran had even more long dresses than the other Miss s, because she was a dishonest person.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded: "Sure."


    Thus, the two of them brought the maidservants to the side hall to change into long skirts under the guidance of the palace maids. Yun Qing Ran opened the package and let Xi Jiu Er choose. In the end, Xi Jiu Er chose a plain one. Without leaving a trace, the palace maid sprinkled the Chinese rose flower''s fragrance on it and then hurriedly left.


    "Liu Shui..."


    "Yes ¡­"


    Yun Qing Ran did not know what Xi Jiu Er was planning, and only asked: "Why did you make your servant leave ¡­."


    "Speaking of which, this maid is very clumsy. He won''t wear these things!" He was worried that something might have happened today, so he brought Liu Shui along to prevent an accident.


    "Fragrance, go serve the princess." Yun Qing Ran instructed her maidservants. However, Xi Jiu Er took out a porcelain bottle from her chest. Yun Qing Ran was startled, and immediately shouted: "Chinese rose flower Fragrance?"


    "Isn''t that so?"


    Yun Qing Ran said angrily: "It''s definitely that palace maid from before, I''ll go and capture her immediately."


    "No need, I''ve already called Liu Shui over." Xi Jiu Er removed the Chinese rose flower''s scent from her body, then had the sweet scent help him dress. This dress was even more complicated than her own, Yun Qing Ran muttered: "There''s no other way, this is exactly what mother ordered, I actually like wearing casual long dresses." It was simple and comfortable.


    Xi Wan Feng had changed into a long skirt, it was a bit big. Yun Qing Ran looked and laughed: "Aiya, you look so much better dressed than me. I feel that I''m more ordinary when I put it on, just like a little girl from the countryside."


    "Pfft ¨C" Xi Jiu Er laughed. Yun Qing Ran really knew how to harm herself.


    "Jiu Er, you''re actually very beautiful." Yun Qing Ran said seriously. Xi Jiu Er''s beauty was like a white lotus, calm and serene. When someone approached her, they would always calm down. If one looked closely, they would see that her facial features were extremely attractive and very attractive. Yun Qing Ran thought of herself, how she looked ¡­ It doesn''t seem to be very beautiful ¡­ Suddenly, her mind thought of someone else ¡­


    Liu Shui returned with a strange smile. "Miss, the palace maid is dead ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er was surprised, Xi Wan Feng was doing things more and more mercilessly. He even dared to make a move in the palace.


    "Yes ¡­" "I killed him." Liu Shui opened her mouth for Xi Jiu Er and suddenly Xi Jiu Er was happy, this was going to be a good show.


    After the two had finished packing, they went to the main hall. It was who walked over, and it was the Old Master Yun who asked her to come take a look. Yun Qing said while beaming: "Big sister, Princess Laifu, you have come. Father has already been waiting for a long time."


    "Hmph." Yun Qing Ran asked: "Is there anyone that you like?" She really couldn''t bear to see Yun Qing''s pretentious look, so disgusting.


    Yun Qing''s face changed slightly, and replied: "The person big sister likes, little sister will not fight with big sister for it."


    "You!" Yun Qing Ran''s face turned red as she shouted in anger.


    Their voices were very soft, and no one in the bustling hall could hear them, but ¡ª The following slaps were extremely crisp and melodious. Xi Jiu Er shouted, "In the future, if you talk rubbish in front of me, it won''t just be a slap."


    Yun Qing had not been woken up by the slap, and Yun Qing Ran, who was at the side, was also stunned, why, why did Yun Qing get beaten up?


    Old Master Yun frowned and came over: "What happened?" He was asking about Yun Qing, so of course he wouldn''t spoil this concubinage. Just say that Yun Qing''s mother was a woman with a bad heart.


    Yun Qing shook her head and said in a daze: "Daughter, your daughter didn''t say anything. Your daughter also doesn''t know why the princess hit your daughter."


    "Hmph, Jiu Er isn''t stupid, it''s impossible for her to hit you for no reason. Little Sister must be careful with her words in the future, so as to prevent others from saying that our Yun Family''s Miss is uneducated." Yun Qing Ran finally reacted and began teaching her.


    "I, you, you ¡­" "Father ¡­" Yun Qing''s eyes flashed with hatred, as he frantically tried to explain.


    Old Master Yun had already determined that Yun Qing must have said something outrageous. Xi Jiu Er had a gentle personality, and would normally be an obedient child. He glared back at him. "If you continue to be this unruly, then scram."


    "Father ¡­"


    "Did you hear that!?" Old Master Yun shouted.


    "Yes." Her goal today was to find a good man. After the rice was cooked, everything would become a foregone conclusion, and at that time, she would be able to get married into a good family. Therefore, she wouldn''t go back even if she was beaten to death.


    "Then why aren''t you apologizing to the princess?" Old Master Yun said.


    "Princess, I''m sorry. It''s all because Qing''er didn''t understand anything and made you angry. Please forgive Qing''er." Yun Qing said. He could only suppress the hatred and hatred in his heart. After all, she was a princess, and he was just a concubinage. One day, she would definitely make Xi Jiu Er pay the price she deserved.


    "It''s okay, we can''t talk like this in the future." Xi Jiu Er said magnanimously. This made Yun Qing Ran want to laugh, Xi Jiu Er was really powerful, she took care of Yun Qing just like that.


    Ai, if only I were as strong as her.


    It''s over now... Then, everyone would do whatever they had to do.


    "The emperor has arrived!"


    "Young Lady Mubai has arrived ¡ª"


    The eunuchs sang loudly, and everyone stood up to pay their respects, saying in unison: "We pay our respects to Your Majesty. We pay our respects to Your Majesty.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge and Mubai walked over together. The main character of the Mubai today was dressed in a gorgeous, noble and oppressive manner, with a beautiful smile on his face. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge dressed casually and the two sat down.


    "Rise!"


    "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone sat down.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed: "Today is Mubai''s birthday celebration, so there''s no need to be so formal." With these words, the palace maids began serving the dishes and the dancers also began to dance. The atmosphere immediately became lively.


    and Yun Qing Ran walked towards each other. When Yun Qing Ran pointed to a dish, "Jiu Er, this thing tastes really good."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Really?"


    The Lady Yun said in annoyance: "You, ah, you only want to eat, you can''t lead Yun''er astray."


    "How could that be?" Yun Qing Ran opened his eyes wide and pursed her lips. Feeling a gaze from the other party, she didn''t even need to look to know who it was. Her face immediately turned red. Behind him, Yun Qing''s eyes were wide open as she tried to find a target to attack.


    After the song ended, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge seemed to have not finished as he said, "We suddenly thought of Princess Laifu." These words caused everyone to be shocked, including Xi Jiu Er.


    Yun Qing Ran was stuck there, coughing continuously. What does the Emperor mean by this? What about Jiu Er?


    "Princess Laifu?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked: "Where is Princess Laifu?"


    This damned title was like calling him a dog. Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up and bowed, "maidservant is here." She didn''t know what Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was going to buy from the bottle, but she was sure that it wasn''t any good medicine.


    "You are the number one beauty, the younger sister of first talented girl. I think your dancing skills are also not bad." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge smiled and asked: "How about you give us a segment?"


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless, she raised her head and said slowly, "Your majesty, chenqie''s dancing skills are unbearable to look at, be careful not to offend your Holy Eye." Your dog eyes.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed: "It''s fine, I really didn''t see that unbearable to look at, there''s no harm in watching it."

 C186

    [What else can I say after what I said?] He''s the emperor, you have to learn even if the emperor wants you to learn to be a dog. Xi Jiu Er could only say: "Then maidservant will be making a fool of himself."


    Then ¡­ slowly spread his arms and began to jump ¡­ Instantly, the eyes of everyone present bulged out. Aiyo, this dance is really unbearable to look at. At one moment, it was as though he was worshipping a Buddha. At the next, he would bow and look at the sky. At the next, he would nod like a ghost ¡­ It was funny and funny.


    "Oh my god, what kind of dance is this? It''s too ugly."


    "Isn''t that so? This dance is too unsightly, even my servant girl dances better than her. "


    "Shh, lower your voice. She''s a princess!"


    "What''s wrong, Princess? I see that this princess'' title is not necessarily true. "


    The crowd discussed amongst themselves, but Xi Jiu Er seemed to not have heard at all, her face was serious. Mmm, dance. Xi Wan Feng scoffed at him in disdain, and felt that she was about to take revenge! Xi Jiu Er, you also understand the feeling of being mocked, right? Hahaha ¡­


    The ugliest one was probably Xi Hong Sheng. Ever since First Lady married into the sect, she had always been under Xi Jiu Er''s control. Xi Jiu Er did whatever she wanted to do, she was just as unruly as a countryside girl. He thought that First Lady was the one who doted on Xi Jiu Er, but now it seems that First Lady had his own selfish motives! How shameful would it be if news of this, the, who could even dance, got out?


    "Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa ¡­" In the end, Xi Jiu Er clapped her hands a few times before retracting. Whispering started again, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked: "Do you know where the Princess Laifu''s dance is going?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked up in astonishment, she did not expect Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge to actually know about it.


    "No one knows? "If anyone finds out, I shall reward him with five hundred taels of gold." The crowd went into an uproar. Where did this lousy dance come from? What kind of background was this? The faces of those people that were laughing at this earlier became serious. Five hundred taels of gold ah. That was a small number.


    "This old official knows a little." An old man stood up and said.


    "Oh?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently.


    "This is a blessing dance for the shocked ¡­"


    A member of the surprised race? Only then did everyone understand. This Fresh Yi Clan had already declined several decades ago, and had paid tribute to them year after year. The person who beat down the surprised people was none other than the Wei Guogong. Wei Guogong spent a year''s worth of time to arrange this and another half day''s worth of time.


    In such a vast world, to be able to achieve such a feat, it must be worth it. This time, everyone realised that Xi Jiu Er was Wei Guogong''s only direct granddaughter.


    "Reward." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed.


    "Thank you, your majesty."


    Originally, everyone was just ridiculing the dance, but now, they were slapping their faces. After Xi Jiu Er took her seat, Yun Qing Ran said with a grin: "Jiu Er, teach me how to do it another day."


    "Sure."


    Miss Zheng was unreconciled to the fact that her light had been snatched away by Xi Jiu Er. She stood up and knelt down, "Your Majesty, since Princess Laifu has offered his blessings, maidservant will also dance for Your Majesty and Young Lady Mubai."


    "Oh?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s expression became much calmer.


    Miss Zheng then went to change into a long skirt. Xi Jiu Er''s eyebrows twitched when she walked past Xi Jiu Er''s table and thought of a plan. Glancing at Liu Shui, Liu Shui lowered his head for merely an instant, and then he stood up as if nothing had happened. Not long later, her voice disappeared.


    Dancing, drinking, and chatting, the Madame became the center of attention. It was unknown how many people had been disgusted by that little woman''s appearance ¡­


    Beneath the table, a line of squirming insects slowly crawled towards Yun Qing''s embroidered shoes. Yun Qing did not notice, but the servant girl beside him noticed it and cried out: "Ah, there''s insects!"


    Xi Wan Feng was overjoyed in his heart. Hahaha, Xi Jiu Er, it''s time for you to die.


    "Ah?" "Insects?"


    "Where, where? Quickly tell me where it is! "


    "Boom!"


    "Miss, my Miss has fainted."


    It wasn''t that the Miss was exaggerating, it was just that these Miss were naturally afraid of bugs. Yun Qing lowered her head and realized that there were a lot of bugs crawling up her legs.


    "Ah!"


    "A dead man, a dead man, Miss Yun is dead ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng turned his head to look. Yun Qing was already dead from bleeding from all seven orifices, yet Xi Jiu Er was still fine on the side. Xi Wan Feng suddenly had a feeling that she had been struck by lightning. Why, why was Xi Jiu Er still fine, why? The scene was a mess, everyone immediately fled far away when they saw Buggy.


    Shi Chen Wen came over and squatted down to take a closer look. "What did you find?"


    "The bugs are dead." As if he wanted to say something, but hesitated. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge knew that this was not the time to ask, so he immediately ordered his men to take care of all the bugs.


    At this time, a palace maid ran in and knelt down, "Your Majesty, Young Lady Mubai, this is bad, Miss Zheng ¡­ Miss Zheng is dead. "


    The crowd was in an uproar. Mubai stood up abruptly and shouted, "What did you say?" How could her sister die? Impossible!


    The palace maid said with a tremble, "After Miss Zheng changed into a new set of clothes, a bug came out of nowhere and crawled onto her body, and then ¡­ And then, Miss Zheng bled to death from all seven orifices. "


    Xi Wan Feng''s body was on the verge of collapse, her mind was a complete blank. Why, why did she painstakingly lay out such a situation in the end? A Miss, a Miss Zheng, a... Who did this? There was no doubt that it had something to do with Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er, are you the reincarnation of a demon? Why was he always able to escape time and time again? She couldn''t accept it! She couldn''t accept it! At the same time, Xi Wan Feng became afraid.


    "Your Majesty ¡­" With a pale face, the Mubai said: "Let''s go take a look."


    Shi Chen Wen immediately served the left and right, and the group of people majestically left. Xi Wan Feng''s legs trembled. If not for the servant''s help, she would not have been able to stand up. Xi Jiu Er walked over and said amiably, "Elder sister, what''s wrong? But the bugs scared you? It''s okay, this insect only likes Chinese rose flower s ¡­ "Don''t worry."


    Xi Wan Feng suddenly raised his head and stared straight at Xi Jiu Er, the fear in his eyes showing for the first time. Xi Jiu Er, are you a human or a ghost? She knew that he had done it, so Xi Jiu Er must have kept it for herself.


    "Jiu Er, we are sisters, right?" Xi Wan Feng struggled to say these words.


    Xi Jiu Er said in a daze, "Really? I don''t think so! "Today, you gave me a chance ¡­" A chance for you to die without a burial ground. The look in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes was so terrifying that even Xi Wan Feng found it difficult to breathe.


    "Jiu Er..." Xi Wan Feng still wanted to say something.


    "Do you know that Jiu Er is already dead? Xi Jiu Er was already killed by one or two of you ¡­ Remember my mother? Xi''er? It was you vicious mothers and daughters who caused my death, Xi Wan Feng, just bear with it for the rest of your lives. "


    "No, I''m a Princess Xian, you can''t do anything to me." Xi Wan Feng said in fear.


    "Hehe, big sister has always been very smart, why have you become so stupid today? Do you know who the other party is? Miss Zheng, my dear sister, you are courting death by making a move at the palace, aren''t you looking down on the imperial power? You deserve it. " Xi Jiu Er took pleasure in his misfortune and said: "Come, sister, let''s go watch a good show."


    Miss Zheng was bleeding from all seven orifices from her eyes, ears, noses, and mouth. She wore a dancing dress and waited for her terrified eyes to die with grievances. Mubai cried. "Who is it, who killed my sister? I want her to live."


    Xi Wan Feng trembled. Madame Zhao was busy thinking about Amitabha ¡­


    Suddenly, at this time, an eunuch barged in and cried out in grief, "Feng''er, how did you die?"


    Feng''er? Everyone looked at each other. Was this Miss Zheng''s nickname Feng''er? This eunuch''s face was filled with grief as if her own wife had died. Could it be ¡­ People began to think.


    This eunuch was none other than Zhong Tang Jun. Zhong Tang Jun did not expect Zhong Tang Jun to enter the palace, so he said that Zhong Tang Jun killed the palace maid, and when he went to the palace, the palace maid was already dead.


    Zhong Tang Jun resented Xi Jiu Er, because he had always been at a disadvantage in front of her, and this time, the two of them had meticulously planned out a plan so that no problems would occur again, thus he disguised himself as an elder and snuck in.


    The reason he treated the Miss Zheng as Xi Wan Feng was also because of Xi Jiu Er, and Zhong Tang Jun had also been fooled. Once he saw that Xi Jiu Er was fine, he immediately lost control of himself: "Xi Jiu Er, why did you kill Feng''er, you vicious woman."

 C187

    This huge change caused everyone to be astonished. Just what kind of situation was this?


    "I don''t know what this father-in-law is talking about." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Is the ''Feng''er'' you speak of my sister? "Then who are you?"


    Xi Wan Feng cursed in his heart. This Zhong Tang Jun had already lost control, he had to stop him or else Xi Jiu Er would use him. Just as he was about to walk over, he heard a voice behind him. "Don''t get in the way." was really the Liu Shui who returned after leaving.


    Xi Wan Feng panicked, and only hoped that this trash, Zhong Tang Jun, would not implicate him. She never had a good eye with men. Zhong Tang Jun had already determined that Xi Wan Feng was dead, that Xi Jiu Er was the murderer, that her eyes were red.


    Xi Jiu Er could not help but exclaim, this Zhong Tang Jun was actually an idiot, doing all these, he had never thought of his own Zhong Family, his eyes all filled with Xi Wan Feng. The pity was used by Xi Wan Feng and was completely unknown.


    "Xi Jiu Er, give me your life!" Zhong Tang Jun suddenly took out a dagger from his robes, which Prince Xian blocked by lightning. This caused a flash of astonishment to appear in Shi Chen Wen''s eyes.


    "You kept saying that I killed the Prince Xian, what evidence do you have?" Xi Jiu Er said with grievance. Zhong Tang Jun had always been instilled with knowledge on how venomous Xi Jiu Er''s heart was, and how good she was at acting pitiful.


    "You bitch, stop pretending to be pitiful. Feng Er was killed by you. Not only did you kill Feng Er, you also killed our child ¡­" Xi Jiu Er, I curse you to die a horrible death. " Zhong Tang Jun was being held down by the palace maid, and he unwillingly raised his head and cursed at Xi Jiu Er.


    What? Child? Xi Wan Feng''s vision darkened and he almost fainted. It''s over, it''s all over ¡­


    "Eunuch, did we misunderstand something?" Xi Jiu Er asked: "Is the Feng''er you''re talking about my sister?"


    "If it''s not your sister, then who? You are both daughters of the Xi Family, yet you treat your own sister viciously, causing Xi Wan Rong to harm both a human and a ghost, causing Feng''er''s reputation to be ruined, and even causing her to lose her reputation, and our child ¡­ Our Children... "Feng Er, Feng Er was killed by you." Zhong Tang Jun struggled free from the palace maid and cursed: "What''s so good about you? "You''re not as good as her when it comes to learning. Your heart is vicious, so why does everyone think you''re a good person? She''s a venomous bad person, and all of this was caused by a venomous woman like you."


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I think we may have misunderstood, moreover, this person is not my sister."


    "Haha, Xi Jiu Er, are you using some sort of trick again? You must have switched Feng''er''s medicine. Your Majesty, it was this woman who killed Princess Xian. Hurry up and arrest her, hurry up. " Zhong Tang Jun screamed.


    Liu Shui''s hands loosened and pushed gently. Xi Wan Feng''s stiff body fell to the ground, and he felt so much pain that his entire face began to contort. Zhong Tang Jun looked at Xi Wan Feng in shock: "Feng''er, you, you''re not dead?"


    Xi Wan Feng scrambled to give Zhong Tang Jun a slap: "I don''t even know you, what are you blabbering about, what kind of child is this? Speak, who is the one directing you from behind?"


    Just now, everything that Zhong Tang Jun did came from his heart, how could he lie? On the other hand,''s guilty look was extremely fake. He really didn''t expect that this woman would be so bold as to not say it out loud.


    Married to Prince Xian and went to hook up with a man, and was pregnant with a bastard? Could it be that the Prince Xian was not going to make it? Otherwise, why would he insist on hanging out with other men? Besides, this man wasn''t that good-looking.


    Murdering Miss Zheng, and even Miss Yun ¡­ What enmity did she have with them? You want to take his life? What the man said just now was most likely related to the Princess Laifu.


    "Princess Xian, what''s going on?" Mubai grabbed Xi Wan Feng''s hand and shouted.


    "Young Lady Mubai, it''s not me ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was hinting to the Mubai that this matter had nothing to do with him. But how could Mubai believe her? Today, she said that she would deal with Xi Jiu Er and make him lose his life, but she didn''t think that her life wouldn''t be lost;


    Xi Wan Feng, although you are not the one who killed my sister, the death of my sister is definitely related to you. Today, you will pay for your own matters.


    No matter what you say today, I won''t let you walk away so easily! The Mubai said angrily: "I don''t care who did this. Today, none of you should even think about escaping."


    "Young Lady Mubai ¡­" Xi Wan Feng still wanted to say that the Mubai had already ordered the workers to lock Xi Wan Feng up. Seeing that the situation was serious, Zhong Tang Jun decided to save Xi Wan Feng no matter what.


    "Young Lady Mubai, everything was done by me. I killed the Miss Zheng. Zhong Tang Jun said with all his might.


    Xi Jiu Er frowned, was Zhong Tang Jun trying to take the blame for Xi Wan Feng''s death? Seeing the attitude of the Mubai, Xi Jiu Er had a plan in her mind.


    "Your majesty, maidservant feels that this eunuch''s words might not be trustworthy. As long as we add a little torture on top of that, he''ll definitely say who''s behind the scenes." Xi Jiu Er set her sights on Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, and gave him the first look. Yun Qing Ran''s heart was already filled with shock and fear. Although Yun Qing was repulsive, she was still a little innocent. But if one were to say that Jiu Er was dead, she would rather die than say that Yun Qing was the one.


    Yun Qing Ran returned to her senses, and coordinated extremely well with Xi Jiu Er: "Right, Your Majesty, maidservant also feels that it must be the masterminds behind this. My little sister rarely comes out, so who was the one who cruelly killed my sister ¡­"


    Lady Yun hugged her to comfort her. Her heart was calm, but she looked at Xi Jiu Er from the corner of her eyes.


    Right now, the only person the Madame Zhao valued the most was Xi Jiu Er. Whatever Xi Jiu Er said, she immediately agreed: "Your majesty, one is the Young Lady Mubai''s blood sister and the other is the Yun Family. If we do not investigate this matter and come out with it, everyone will be panicking." After saying that, she gestured a scared pose.


    "That''s right, the mere thought of those bugs makes me panic."


    "Yes."


    shouted. "It''s all done by me alone, it has nothing to do with Feng''er." This man was as stupid as a pig. Xi Wan Feng was truly unlucky to have met him.


    "Men, take Princess Xian and this man with you ¡­" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said loudly. Xi Wan Feng''s body tilted, and tightly grabbed onto Prince Xian, but when Prince Xian turned around, her entire body froze.


    The look in Prince Xian''s eyes was very strange, extremely strange, so strange that it caused Xi Wan Feng to shudder.


    "Prince ¡­" She tried calling out to him, and a meaningful smile appeared on Prince Xian''s face. "My Royal Consort, Chinese rose flower is truly a good thing. It woke up this king''s mind immediately."


    With a boom, he remembered. He remembered everything. Xi Wan Feng''s face immediately turned pale white, the last life-saving straw was already gone.


    "Prince, I''m your wangfei ¡­" Xi Wan Feng had a hard time reading it.


    "Princess? This King hasn''t even touched your hair, how did you become This King''s wangfei? " The Prince Xian sneered: "You think too highly of yourself."


    Other people had already heard the conversation between the two clearly, this sentence meant that the person in Xi Wan Feng''s arms was a bastard? had never even touched her? This... This... Then why did they get married? Don''t you have anything to do when you''re full?


    Prince Xian looked at Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Jiu Er also looked over. Even to this day, Xi Jiu Er still could not understand why Xi Wan Feng had married Prince Xian, and why Prince Xian had doted on him so much when he saw what had happened.


    When Prince Xian woke up, he started thinking about that bitch. What was so good about that bitch? What''s so good about it? Xi Wan Feng pulled out the hairpin. She had nothing left now, nothing at all ¡­ Slut, slut ¡­


    Liu Shui wanted to stop him, but he was fiercely pulled by Xi Jiu Er ¡­ In the blink of an eye, another hairpin had appeared on Xi Jiu Er''s chest, causing him to feel that his entire body had become extremely cold. He fell into Liu Shui''s embrace and looked at Xi Wan Feng in fear: "Wh, why ¡­"


    Xi Wan Feng screamed as if he had been possessed, "Why? Haha, why do you think? Xi Jiu Er, you go and die, you die. "


    "Someone, capture her for me!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge shouted.


    Xi Wan Feng thought that he had succeeded, but who would have thought that Xi Jiu Er would give her an alluring smile, the two of them were too familiar with each other, no, Xi Jiu Er was familiar with her, but she might not be familiar with Xi Jiu Er.


    That smile made Xi Wan Feng feel like he was tricked again. That''s right, Liu Shui was strong, how could he let him succeed? Unless Xi Jiu Er deliberately... Xi Wan Feng could not understand anymore. Unless she had the Unbreakable Diamond Physique, she could feel that every single spike was very deep.


    When Xi Wan Feng and Zhong Tang Jun were pulled down, the Prince Xian immediately went to find the imperial physician to treat them. Many people present could tell what Prince Xian was thinking about Xi Jiu Er.


    Mubai looked at Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge and laughed: "Look at how concerned Prince Xian is."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not say anything. The smile on the Mubai''s face froze, but in his mind, he was calculating something else. Xi Jiu Er''s wound was very deep, and the imperial physician said that she must be careful. Fortunately, he did not injure her chest, otherwise, even with the presence of the King of Hell''s Master, he might not be able to save her.


    Mubai squinted his eyes as he thought of an idea.


    "Princess Laifu wants to stay at my place. You can go back when your body is better." The Mubai laughed.


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head, "There''s no need to trouble Young Lady Mubai anymore ¡­" Following that, news came, saying that the Emperor had vented his anger on Xi Hong Sheng, and had actually stripped him of his position to investigate. Logically speaking, it was true that Xi Hong Sheng would be implicated, but it was not to the point where he would lose his position and investigate. The Emperor had overdone it this time, but after thinking about it again, one of them was the Mubai''s sister, the other was the Yun Family ¡­ This Xi Hong Sheng official was not very big, if not for Xi Jiu Er, his position would probably have been stuck.

 C188

    Xi Wan Feng was imprisoned in the Sky Prison? But no matter what, she was still a Princess Xian, and was the one who took the blame, not a big deal for her. Therefore, it was very easy for the Prince Xian to protect Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng thought that he would be able to leave the Sky Prison, but he didn''t expect to be imprisoned by the Prince Xian.


    Mu Qiu Shui pushed open the front door of the courtyard, and a burst of cold wind blew over. It lifted his long hair and his cold and emotionless smile, and said indifferently: "Xi Wan Feng, I''m here!"


    Xi Wan Feng was like a dog chained to a hundred year old tree in the courtyard, his entire body was like a beggar''s, and his face was thick with mud. When he heard the sound, he suddenly woke up, and said in pleasant surprise: "Your highness, your highness ¡­ "Save me, save me ¡­"


    "Xi Wan Feng, save you?" Mu Qiu Shui said as if he had heard a great joke, "Do you think that this king''s feelings are that funny? Deceiving This King, drugging This King... You really have a lot of guts. "


    Mu Qiu Shui walked towards Xi Wan Feng step by step. He raised his head and said in a pitiful manner, "Your Highness ¡­ I only do this because I love you. What''s wrong with using all kinds of means to protect the person I love? "


    Another beautiful face suddenly appeared in Mu Qiu Shui''s mind, he then looked at Xi Wan Feng and sneered: That''s right, what are you at fault for? The mistake was that you didn''t know how high the heavens were and how high the earth was to provoke me, so you said ¡­ Didn''t you put a lot of medicine in, so that I wouldn''t know anything about it? "You are still my princess, and we are still living a life of mutual respect. How nice is that?"


    Xi Wan Feng was momentarily at a loss as to what the Prince Xian meant, and happily said: "Duke, you don''t blame me anymore? I know I was wrong, please forgive me ¡­ "It''s all because I love you too much ¡­"


    "Stop saying ''love'' one after another, it makes me feel extremely disgusted just by looking at it." Mu Qiu Shui fiercely slapped Xi Wan Feng, causing Xi Wan Feng to hug Mu Qiu Shui even though he wasn''t in pain, a terrible stench suddenly hit Mu Qiu Shui''s face, causing him to almost vomit.


    "Scram ¨C" Mu Qiu Shui was a martial artist, he immediately struggled free from Xi Wan Feng, but he was helpless as this time, no matter what Xi Wan Feng said, he would not let go. Xi Wan Feng endured the pain and refused to let go. She couldn''t let go because once she did, she would be finished. Her identity was gone, and her Prince Xian would not belong to him. How could she let these things happen?


    "Your Highness, I love you. I know I was wrong, and I don''t ask for Your Highness''s forgiveness. I just beg that Your Highness let me go and let me serve you in the Prince''s Mansion ¡­" I beg of you, Your Highness... Wuu wuu wuu, the killing intent and disgust in Prince Xian''s eyes made her heart tremble, it seemed like Prince Xian wanted to kill her! She could not die, and she could not face everything that was happening to her, so she could only take a step back and tightly hold onto what was happening.


    Mu Qiu Shui clenched his teeth and cursed out loud: "Get lost!" After saying that, he struggled free from Xi Wan Feng and raised his leg to kick him fiercely in the chest. Xi Wan Feng almost fainted when he kicked him.


    "Love me? Bullshit! I don''t care about your love! Who do you think you are? You bitch who got screwed!" Mu Qiu Shui kicked a few more times, seeing that Xi Wan Feng was twisted on the ground in pain, he slowly stopped.


    "Your Highness ¡­" This humble one was wrong. I beg you to bypass my life and allow this humble one to serve you as my servant? " Xi Wan Feng endured the pain and raised her head to look at Prince Xian in a pitiful manner.


    "Be a slave or a slave? This King is afraid that you will cause my death, not to mention that I am afraid that you will dirty my hands. " Prince Xian snorted coldly, his eyes filled with dense disdain and contempt.


    Xi Wan Feng pursed his lips and cried silently: "What''s wrong with me being someone I like? What''s wrong with it?" Seeing that he really did not want to look at him anymore, the fake Prince Xian felt disgusted and scolded: "Love? How laughable, you are just looking for an identity, a place to protect yourself. You don''t love me! "


    "Your Highness ¡­" "You misunderstood me ¡­" Xi Wan Feng wanted to explain himself, but he planned to hug Prince Xian without leaking any trace of himself. Prince Xian took a few steps back and cursed, "Bitch, in the future you''ll be like a dog living this life."


    "Your Royal Highness, don''t!" No, she didn''t want to live such a life, she didn''t want such a life. She should be a glorious Princess Xian, not a prisoner like him ¡­ no, she couldn''t even be considered a prisoner.


    Mu Qiu Shui turned a deaf ear, as if he did not hear anything. Xi Wan Feng suddenly thought of an excuse: "Your Highness, please wait! I want to tell you a secret! "


    Hmph, I''m afraid it''s some trick to deceive me, do you think I''m stupid? It was so easy to be tricked. Mu Qiu Shui ignored him and continued to walk. Could it be that he would be tricked a second time after being tricked once?


    "Your Highness, don''t you like Xi Jiu Er? This humble one will allow Xi Jiu Er to fall in love with Your Highness. " Xi Wan Feng screamed, and told them the reason he casually made up, all to get the Prince Xian to pay attention to him again. After the Prince Xian recovered her memories, she started to pay more attention to that bitch.


    "Prince, I have a way to make her ¡­" Xi Wan Feng grinned.


    "Then you can continue to stay here." The Prince Xian frowned, he was already itching to look for Xi Jiu Er.


    "Hehe, only now do I realise that Xi Jiu Er''s eyes are sharper than mine, she has already seen through your true nature." Mu Qiu Shui mocked him and only said after a moment of silence, "Alright, then you will still be your Princess Xian from now on, until Xi Jiu Er falls in love with me. If you do not finish this within three months, I will tear you into a million pieces. "


    "Yes, I understand." Xi Wan Feng hurriedly said. Three months. Hehe, then she must find a good way to retreat. She wasn''t stupid, waiting for death in vain wasn''t her style.


    Just like that, Xi Wan Feng also called it Princess Xian, but unfortunately, she had already lost the care and love of Prince Xian. The maidservants and servants started to guess that she had lost her favour. These discussions were basically not painful nor itchy to Xi Wan Feng. She had achieved her final goal and now, she was paving the way for Xi Jiu Er by looking for him.


    The Prince Xian wouldn''t even bother to ask what Xi Wan Feng was going to do next. He only wanted information on Jiu Er and she would do the rest.


    Xi Wan Feng had rushed day and night for Xi Jiu Er, so the only way for her to break away from the Prince Xian was to stay away from the place that held authority within the Prince Xian ¡ª the Wind Nation was not bad! She could secretly move the silver she had hidden away to the Wind Nation and then disappear there without anyone noticing.


    So what if Mu Qiu Shui found him? Even if he wanted to kill, he still had to consider his own identity! With that, Xi Wan Feng started to move.


    She really needed to take Xi Jiu Er, and have battled with him for so long she had paved quite a few roads, and now she finally had the chance to take this path! Xi Wan Feng dressed up like a normal woman, wearing a veil that covered her face.


    "Madame, this is your silver ¡­" The shopkeeper took out a box and felt a bit pained. These were all money that Xi Wan Feng had saved up, and if they were to take it out now, they were going to go bankrupt.


    Xi Wan Feng counted, hmm, a hundred thousand... Xi Wan Feng got the servant to carry the box and sat on the carriage. The horse carriage flew around for a long time before stopping at the back door of an inn. Xi Wan Feng asked the maid to wait there.


    Xi Wan Feng carried the box into the tavern, and when he saw a young man, he placed the box on top of the building. Xi Wan Feng explained his purpose for coming, and told him to deposit the contents of the box into a bank in Wind Nation! The man asked doubtfully, "Princess Consort, what are you doing?"


    "This is the prince''s intention. I don''t know the exact reason either." Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "Your Highness has said it, if you were to destroy it, then you will have to wait for the head to fall." For the sake of the safety of the banknotes, she had to lie!


    When the young man heard that the Prince Xian was going to take care of this matter, he immediately became more cautious. With a stern expression, he said, "Royal Concubine, don''t worry. Is Your Highness transferring financial resources? Why? There was still a Wind Nation? Was he trying to sell the country for honor?


    Thinking about that, he was immediately shocked, then smiled as he thought that his way of thinking was too preposterous, maybe the Prince Xian was some other matter.


    Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "Then I''ll be troubling you."

 C189

    Xi Wan Feng and Xi Jiu Er''s grudge started from their previous lives and seemed to have reached a stage where it did not end. I only hope that you will die and never see light again. I hope that you will never see light again in this life.


    Xi Wan Feng saw that Xi Jiu Er''s blood was still as good as before, and was so beautiful that she looked like a cold fairy floating in the sky. She looked at Xi Wan Feng, who was about to go crazy from jealousy. Xi Wan Feng''s face had already started to twist as he laughed coldly, "Xi Jiu Er, you''re a slut with an aqua flower. You really make me want to puke."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled indifferently: "Xi Wan Feng, your words are already unable to hurt me in the slightest." She had heard a lot of these words in her past life. In this life, she had said a lot of things, but the process wasn''t important. In any case, the outcome was the most important.


    "Xi Jiu Er, even if I die, I will curse you in hell and make you unable to reincarnate. Oh right, I forgot to tell you. I''ve asked the Daoist Priest before, once you die, he''ll do something so that you won''t have to reincarnate in hell. " Xi Wan Feng screamed sharply, and laughed complacently.


    "Is that so? You think I''m afraid? " Xi Jiu Er said in disdain, "Other than these, what else do you know? Her ability to scold others wasn''t high. Other than scolding people when they see them, her way of doing things was also very unsightly. Xi Wan Feng, you are just like a disgusting mouse, staying in a place that you can''t see the light of day for your entire life, if you have the ability, why don''t you openly compare to me? You don''t have the ability to continue blabbering here. You are truly promising. "


    "Hehehehe ¡­" Xi Wan Feng began to giggle: "Do you think I will be angry just because you say these things? No, what have I never seen? I''ve never heard of anything, and I''ve even heard of people who scold worse than you. "


    Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth and laughed: "Seems like you are really detestable."


    "Xi Jiu Er, what are you so proud of? Not only are you a bit luckier than me, I''m telling you, you''re not my match at all, you''re just a bit luckier than me. Do you really think you can win against me? It''s impossible! " Xi Wan Feng''s face had already distorted to an odd degree. Jealousy, insanity, anger, and unwillingness surged toward his face, as if he were an evil spirit.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and smiled: "So what? I really did win against you, don''t tell me you''re going to bite me? "


    These words infuriated Xi Wan Feng: "Bitch, you shameless bastard."


    "Hehehe ¡­ I''m not a slut ¡­" Compared to you, I''m no worse, and you''re the bitch. " Xi Jiu Er said with a carefree expression. From time to time, she would look at her fingernails with a beautiful face, as if saying, "My nails are so beautiful."


    Xi Wan Feng''s heart was in despair. She was not valued by the First Lady, not by Xi Hong Sheng, not by Xi Wan Rong, not by the Prince Xian, not even by the gold! She had only just learned it, so even if her looks were a bit worse, she was still first talented girl. Why did everyone think that Xi Jiu Er was the best? Everyone praised her, the Emperor rewarded her, and the best men in the world fell for her ¡­ What did she, Xi Jiu Er, count for?


    "Xi Jiu Er, if I had your identity, I would also become a stepping stone that would attract the attention of tens of thousands." Xi Wan Feng was unwilling.


    "Heh - is that so? Unfortunately, I also know that the reason I''m here today is to take a final look at you. " Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips: "Aren''t we sisters after all?"


    The sound of footsteps came as an extremely beautiful man slowly walked over. Xi Wan Feng stared at the person who walked over in a daze as his heart was filled with pain and sweetness. When he saw the man he liked looking at another woman with concern, and also the woman he hated the most, he immediately shouted, "My prince, I am your wangfei. The person you should be concerned about is me."


    Mu Qiu Shui looked at Xi Wan Feng with disgust. "Esteemed wangfei, you''re worthy of that?"


    "Hahahaha ¡ª I dare not say I don''t deserve it, I am the woman you are officially married to and carried into the house on a palanquin. This is something the world knows, do you think you can still deny it?" Suddenly, Xi Wan Feng''s face became overflowing with happiness and an abnormal blush. "You and I have already been husband and wife for a long time, and I have been living happily under you. You kept on calling me Feng''er, and the person I, Mu Qiu Shui, love the most in this life is you!"


    "Shut up!" Mu Qiu Shui''s expression was disgusted, as though he had eaten a fly. His current state made Xi Wan Feng madly laugh: "Spit, spit, even if it''s like this, it shouldn''t change the truth!"


    "Disgusting woman." Mu Qiu Shui coldly snorted, "So what if it''s you? To This King, you are just like a lowly prostitute, toyed with by others! "


    If Xi Wan Feng did not like the Prince Xian, she would not have felt such words, but she had truly fallen in love with him. If you want to cry, you can''t cry, "Hehehe, do you think the woman you like will be any better? She wasn''t a virgin anymore ¡­ I can''t imagine how many people there are under her skirt. "


    "Hmph, Xi Wan Feng, you still have to talk so much nonsense even when you''re dead." The Prince Xian disdainfully replied, "I feel disgusted just listening to your voice."


    Xi Wan Feng pursed his lips and shouted: "All of you go, kill this bitch Xi Jiu Er, and capture Prince Xian alive."


    "Yes sir!" The black clothed man behind Xi Wan Feng immediately spread out and attacked Xi Jiu Er and Prince Xian. Liu Shui''s martial arts were naturally not difficult, and Prince Xian was not someone to be trifled with. Xi Jiu Er decided to protect herself. With the three of them fighting, Xi Wan Feng watched coldly from the sidelines.


    "Shh ¡ª ¡ª" Prince Xian blew and a group of well-trained black-clothed men appeared. Xi Wan Feng pursed his lips, unresigned in his heart. He took an arrow from the servant''s hands and aimed it straight at Xi Jiu Er. Puff! The arrow shot out directly at Xi Jiu Er, and when Liu Shui saw it, he immediately pulled a dead body from the ground and threw it towards Xi Jiu Er, hitting the dead man''s body!


    Xi Wan Feng knew that she had missed a great opportunity, and noted it down before killing Xi Jiu Er. Could it be that she was destined to be played around by Xi Jiu Er and be suppressed by him? How unreconciled ¡­


    Gradually, Xi Wan Feng brought fewer and fewer black-clothed men with her. She had already noticed that something was wrong and immediately ran away. Xi Jiu Er knew very well what kind of person Xi Wan Feng was, and said: "She wants to escape!"


    "Chase!" Mu Qiu Shui shouted.


    Xi Wan Feng was wandering around in the forest. She had already planned the route before, just in case she failed and she could escape. And so ¡ª she was glad that she had made the right choice.


    In the darkness of the night, Xi Wan Feng was like a snake that was shuttling nonstop. The black-clothed people immediately followed closely behind. Mu Qiu Shui who was following closely jumped onto a big tree, raised his crossbow and shot towards Xi Wan Feng.


    Xi Wan Feng screamed out in pain, she lowered her head to look at the arrow that pierced through her shoulder and gritted her teeth as she continued walking. He walked over to the place where he had buried the flint and pulled out the flint to start detonating.


    "Damn it!" Xi Wan Feng scolded. The fire piston in his hand could not be ignited no matter how he tried. Seeing that someone was about to approach him, he stabbed it ¡ª the fire piston caught on fire. There was a loud explosion... It was like a thunderclap.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned her head and looked towards the forest: Prince Xian! She immediately brought her men to chase, a dense black smoke assaulted him, causing Xi Jiu Er to cough continuously.


    "Princess, wait a moment. Servant will go in alone." Liu Shui dove in head first. In order not to become a burden, he shouted from behind, "Be careful."


    Not long after, Liu Shui carried a man who looked like black charcoal on his back and came out. Liu Shui was in a slightly sorry state, "Princess, the Prince seems to have fainted. Servant Xi Wan Feng did not find any trace of her, he probably ran away."


    "Come -" Xi Jiu Er took out a spring water and poured it into Prince Xian''s mouth. She believed that the Spring Water could cure the Prince Xian. Prince Xian woke up from his stupor and said intermittently, "I ¡­ I haven''t touched her ¡­ "Never ¡­"


    "Yes, I know!" Xi Jiu Er replied.


    "The reason why I... Marry her because ¡­ "She drugged me ¡­" Prince Xian coughed, "I, I didn''t expect her to run out ¡­"


    A huge change happened in Xi Jiu Er''s family. As her best friend, Yun Qing Ran guided her and brought her to swim in the lake. Who would have thought that they would be ambushed by Xi Wan Feng who had escaped. Fortunately, Yun Qing Ran was fine, and the only regret was that she escaped. She ran away, but it was hard to find the vast sea. Whatever, since she wanted to take care of Xi Hong Sheng, it wouldn''t be too late.


    "You''re not angry, right ¡­" Prince Xian asked.


    "Nope."


    "Really?"


    "Really."


    "Then, I won''t be at ease if you laugh."


    "Ha ha!" Xi Jiu Er was currently unconscious, she really could not laugh.


    "Even though I''m reluctant, it''s still a smile." Prince Xian reluctantly accepted it.


    Over here, Feng Qing Cheng looked at the two people in the distance who seemed to be laughing and talking. He sneered, Hmph, it was best to make a move from Wei Guogong. With that, he turned around and headed to the Wei Guogong''s residence to curry favor with them. Why did this Xi Wan Feng woman let Prince Xian wake up at this time? This is too much.

    Xi Wan Feng had poisoned the little sister of the imperial concubine and Miss, causing Xi Family to be dragged into the prison. When the news reached Xi Family, he immediately sat down on his chair, looking terrified.


    "Third Wife, what do we do?" Mother Fang''s voice already had a hint of sobbing, "The imperial government has already sent people to search Xi Family."


    Third Wife was puzzled, what was the point of searching for Xi Family? Could it be that the Xi Family is hiding some treasure? She had no idea in his heart, but she thought about how his child''s heart suddenly fell into an ice cave.


    "Mother Fang, quickly, hide my things, don''t let us find them." Right now, she had managed the Xi Family and obtained a lot of benefits from it. Xi Jiu Er turned a blind eye to it and pretended not to see it, but Xi Hong Sheng had never asked about these things before, so she had a lot of money in her private life.


    If she were to run into a greedy person during this search, she wouldn''t be able to find a place to cry. Third Wife''s heart was thumping hard. There was a commotion outside and Mother Fang ran over: "Third Wife is here."


    Third Wife calmed his mind and said: "Let''s go."


    Xi Jiu Er was together with the person who came over, the Third Wife saw that Xi Jiu Er''s face had become tranquil for some reason, and spoke to Xi Jiu Er: "Princess, you''re back, this is ¡­" She couldn''t help but feel fear when her gaze shifted to the leader of the soldiers.


    "Madame can do whatever she wants." The leader of the soldiers said expressionlessly, "On behalf of the emperor, I am here to search the Xi Family. I hope everyone can cooperate."


    "Yes yes yes, that''s for sure." Third Wife smiled and glanced at Xi Jiu Er.


    A large group of people started their search of Xi Mansion, causing the people of Xi Mansion to be anxious. Xi Jiu Er sat in the hall, drinking tea and eating snacks. Third Wife came over and whispered, "Princess, what happened?"


    "What else could it be? It''s the things you heard." Xi Jiu Er put down the tea cup and looked at Liu Shui, then Liu Shui left the hall. Third Wife saw this and thought it over in her mind. In her eyes, Xi Jiu Er was just a madman, she hated Xi Family so much that she wanted to destroy him. Xi Family was facing a huge change, but her expression did not change at all. This kind of person was too heartless and cold, it made her feel terrified.


    After a while, Liu Shui came over and muttered a few more words to Xi Jiu Er. Third Wife felt an indescribable fear in his heart. He suddenly stood up and forced out a smile towards Xi Jiu Er, "Princess, I was sincere to you in Xi Mansion and treated you with sincerity. This time, I hope that, for the sake of the past, the princess will be able to protect my two children. "


    Song Hanruo ¡­ Xi Jiu Er nodded with a warm smile: "Don''t worry Third Wife, I will think of a way to deal with this even without you saying anything. However, it is still better for Third Wife to think about it carefully.


    The Xi Family looked glorious. Xi Wan Feng had married the famous Prince Xian, Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wu Er had married the two sisters. Although the difference was small, their status was unshakable. It looked very bright, but it had actually fallen in the middle of the floor long ago.


    Third Wife was a smart person, he had long seen through the reality of Xi Family''s strong exterior, and took advantage of the power in his hands to not show any mercy. Right now, the only thing that made things worse for Xi Family was that he had almost emptied his entire body. Third Wife confirmed his previous guess. With a pale face, he whispered into Mother Fang''s ear. Mother Fang was shocked and quickly left.


    The leader of the soldiers hurriedly returned to report what he had found in Xi Hong Sheng''s study room. Before he left, he had only said that ''the Xi Family has exhausted all of its energy'', which scared everyone out of their wits. Some of the servants had signed a death contract, if something were to happen to Xi Family, they would ask you to accompany them in death, how could you not be scared? Those who had a contract with him were so scared by these words that they wanted to run away. When the time came, Xi Family would be fine and he would be beaten to death. The servants discussed passionately, many different opinions were shared, Third Wife already knew the answer, all he was thinking of was how to protect himself, how could he even think of what others would say?


    "Princess, the servants are already causing trouble." Liu Xiang said anxiously: "Some people have already started to fight, some people have escaped, and some people are planning to escape with the things in the house."


    "Where''s the Third Wife?" The situation had developed as she had expected, Xi Jiu Er asked indifferently.


    "Third Wife has left the palace ¡­" It was exactly because there was no Third Wife that the chaos started to spread. The servants had already determined that the Xi Family was finished after seeing their master had left, and since it was already over, they would be stupid if they were to continue staying in the palace.


    "Liu Shui, go and block every single door in the manor. If anyone dares to take even half a step outside the manor gate, then ruthlessly beat them up, regardless of life or death." She finally had the chance to properly deal with the servants in the mansion. In her previous life, she had been bullied quite a few times by the bunch of people who looked down on people. Today, Xi Mansion''s anger has run out, if I don''t take revenge, when will I?


    "Aiyo, my princess! Wh-what happened?" Chun Hua stumbled over. Originally, she was taking a bath while the servant stood guard outside. Suddenly, a few men barged in, scaring her to the point that her soul almost left her body. When she hurriedly washed up, she found that the Xi Mansion was in a mess, saying that the Xi Family was raiding her house, but before she could digest what had just happened, she heard that Liu Shui had beaten her to death. They had no choice but to run to Xi Jiu Er''s place and ask him.


    In Xi Mansion, she did not care about what was going on outside his window, and treated himself like a pig. After such a huge incident, she didn''t even hear a single word about it. She suspected that someone was deliberately hiding this information from her.


    "Won''t you see for yourself?" Xi Jiu Er sat in a comfortable position and glanced at Chun Hua, who immediately flattered her: "Didn''t something huge happen in this mansion because you, the princess, were holding it up? "Princess, your face is as tranquil as the clouds and the wind. Mount Tai collapsed right in front of your eyes without changing in color. It can be seen that this is no big deal."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head and laughed: "It is indeed not a big deal.


    Chun Hua took it seriously, after walking a few steps she realised that something was not right, the servants were all about to go crazy, yet they said that it was okay? She then came over and begged, "My good princess, can you tell me what happened?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her stomach, which was rolling, as she said in disgust: "Don''t you know what happened? "You can leave now, but as far as you can go, your looks will definitely leave a mark on your heart!"


    "Princess, you, what do you mean by this? I don''t understand. " Chun Hua was not sure what Xi Jiu Er meant by that, but she felt that it was a huge matter: "Where do I go?


    "Princess, Prince Fu''s carriage said that Prince Fu is sick and wants you to hurry over." Liu Shui said.


    "I''m leaving, you better take care of yourself." Xi Jiu Er stood up and left, that farewell gesture made Chun Hua panic. Go? Something must have happened.


    "Eh, if you want to leave, then why don''t you leave after raiding for some benefits?" Chun Hua immediately ran to the Old Madame''s courtyard. She heard that when the Old Madame was being buried, he had buried a lot of treasures, and there were probably a lot of treasures hidden inside too. By the time Chun Hua arrived at the Old Madame''s courtyard, it was already too late. The servants had already moved everything that they needed to, so Chun Hua went forward to snatch them.


    "Scram, this little slut is mine."


    "Mine, I found it and now it belongs to me."


    "Nonsense, I am the First Lady, it belongs to me. Let go, let go! "


    "Pfft, what the hell is a First Lady? A Xi Family is almost done for, you''re about to be beheaded, and you''re still saying that you''re a First Lady?" The servant did not take Chun Hua seriously at all, biting down painfully made Chun Hua cry out.


    What? Killed the head? Oh my god, her identity is now First Lady, what if others think that she is the real First Lady? No, run. In any case, she had reaped a lot of benefits while she was being a ''First Lady'' and had sneakily moved out.


    Chun Hua could only leave with regret and unwillingness. Now, she completely understood the meaning behind Xi Jiu Er''s words.


    The news of Xi Family''s search spread like wildfire, and by the time Xi Jiu Er arrived at the Duke''s Palace, it had already started to boil outside. There were a lot of people surrounding the Duke of Guo''s Mansion to watch the liveliness, and when they saw Xi Jiu Er, they became more lively at the market.


    The moment Xi Jiu Er arrived at the hall, she saw Wei Guogong and Feng Qing Cheng conversing. Wei Guogong laughed as if she had met a good friend, she was in a great mood.


    "Old Master, the princess is here." Elder Zhang was the first to notice Xi Jiu Er standing at the door. Seeing her black face, Xi Jiu Er hurriedly pulled on Wei Guogong''s sleeves, interrupting their conversation.


    "Jiu Er is here!" Wei Guogong''s smile faded unhappily: What''s wrong, is there someone from Xi Family bullying you again?


    "Grandfather, the Emperor has sent people to search Xi Family. The Xi Family is in chaos right now, I came here to seek shelter." Just as Xi Jiu Er finished speaking, the Wei Guogong suddenly stood up and lost her composure: "What? "Why?"


    "I don''t know. It seems that I''ve found something in my father''s study. Grandfather, I''m very scared. " Xi Jiu Er''s face revealed fear, as she helplessly nestled herself in the Wei Guogong''s embrace.


    "Don''t be afraid ¡­" Wei Guogong clapped her hands and comforted him, "Grandfather will support you in everything. Don''t worry, Grandfather will ensure your safety no matter what."


    When Feng Qing Cheng saw this scene, why did he feel that it was fake? In his impression, Xi Jiu Er would not easily reveal his own emotions. Were they acting for him? Could it be that they had already seen through his identity? Could it be that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge took the thing that he was looking for? Feng Qing Cheng thought about it carefully, and without showing it on his face, he said, "Princess, don''t worry. You are the only bloodline of the Wei Guogong, so the Emperor won''t do anything to you."


    "Yeah, don''t worry. If the Emperor wants to hurt you in the slightest, then Grandpa will risk his life to ensure your safety." Two streams of tears flowed down Xi Jiu Er''s face, and she choked with sobs: "Grandfather, in the past, Jiu Er was insensible and made you sad. Jiu Er will not do this again."


    "Is that so?" A cunning look flashed past Wei Guogong''s eyes. Xi Jiu Er was completely immersed in the memories of her previous life and thus did not realize this fact. She nodded and said, "Yes, in the future, whatever Grandfather says will be the truth.


    "Yes, this is my grandfather''s good child." The Wei Guogong smiled, satisfied with Xi Jiu Er''s words.

 C191

    Only a few people in the Xi Family knew what they managed to find out, and the officials did not dare discuss about it. They also warned the women in the backyard to stop talking and ask about it. Xi Hong Sheng went to jail, the Xi Mansion was extorted and the assets that the Old Madame and Xi Hong Sheng had kept for many years were handed over to the National Treasury. Among them were First Lady and Wei Xi Er. As Xi Jiu Er''s biological mother, Wei Xi Er had also once been a Grandmother of the Xi Mansion, so she would definitely sit right beside her.


    Third Wife fell to the ground all of a sudden. She had already said that she would marry a husband, so of course her dowry was also from Xi Mansion ¡­ The Xi Family was finished, luckily she had kept her trump card, otherwise her status would definitely be poor without any money. If a woman dragged two children along, without any money, the three of them would just wait to starve to death.


    The other aunties of the household walked over to find Third Wife to think of a way. Third Wife laughed coldly: "A way? What can I do? If I have a way, I''ll do it, but don''t you know? This was all part of His Majesty''s decree. No one can change his decree ¡­ "


    "If a princess saved the empress dowager, the empress dowager could dictate the emperor''s decision." One of the Madame said.


    "How dare you!" Third Wife''s face turned green: Right now, Xi Family is already in a mess, do you really want to add to the mess?


    The little Madame pursed her lips and muttered unwillingly: "When we married into the Xi Mansion, we originally planned to lead a good life. But now, not only have our good days not ended, we became commoners, we are also penniless like beggars. If we go back home, wouldn''t we be laughed to death?" "What should we do in the future?" They could still remarry, but for women, things like marriage were getting more and more worthless, so what else could they find?


    Her words touched the hearts of the other Madame. Third Wife scoffed, what about now, the love she had said in front of the man? Each of them only cared about their own lives, how could they even think about Xi Hong Sheng?


    "Alright, let''s wait and see where the Master is. This mansion will probably be sealed. I, by myself, am limited, and I can''t even support myself right now, much less all of you. If you guys want to leave, then leave. I will naturally explain this to Master when he returns. " Third Wife''s eyelids did not twitch, as though he was very tired.


    The little Madame s looked at each other, secretly guessing in their hearts that the Xi Family was already in a dead end, if they could bring death back to life, they did not want to leave. Third Wife did not urge him. She calculated in her heart that Xi Jiu Er was rich ¡­ If she begged Xi Jiu Er to give her some silver, who knows if she would be willing.


    "I, I''ll go pack my things ¡­" One of the Madame s stood up. From the looks of it, it was Madame Wen, who was a smart person.


    "Mm. Go." The Third Wife said indifferently.


    With that, everyone else also stood up and said their farewells to the Third Wife, which nodded in response. Seven or eight people had already left ¡­ Mother Fang said: "Madame, the palace has sent news, saying that there is an order for us to come to Xi Mansion in around an hour."


    "But what good news?" the Third Wife asked expectantly.


    Mother Fang shook her head. "This old servant doesn''t know."


    "Just you wait." Third Wife leaned against the chair, lost in thought.


    Imperial Palace, Sky Prison.


    There were a total of two types of Sky Prison. The first was the prison where the Emperor wanted to visit, which had a good environment. There was a clean blanket and a place to go to the toilet, so the food in the prison was also not bad. The other was that he had already been sentenced to death row. His Majesty didn''t even care to take a glance at it. This environment was like a pigsty.


    Xi Hong Sheng took off his official''s uniform, taking off the Dai Hua Ling.


    "Kindness? What kind of kindness is that? " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked, as if he did not know why Xi Hong Sheng ended up like this. Eunuch Hai had already sent people to move the seats over. After setting them up, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge slowly sat down and calmly looked at Xi Hong Sheng.


    "This commoner has taught his daughter shamelessly, causing her to commit an irreparable mistake. But ¡­ this commoner has already broken off the father-daughter relationship and no longer has any contact with her. For the sake of this commoner''s loyalty, Your Majesty, please bypass this commoner once." Xi Hong Sheng kneeled on the ground and said pitifully: "This humble one will definitely serve the emperor, and will die just like that."


    "Oh?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge suddenly said: "Princess Laifu doesn''t seem to be doing well in Xi Mansion, is this true?"


    Xi Hong Sheng was startled, he did not expect the emperor to suddenly bring up Xi Jiu Er. He immediately turned his head and said angrily: "This is all the fault of the Wang family, the Wang family looks like a virtuous, virtuous, and virtuous sect of a mother, but behind the scenes, they actually ¡­. This commoner had only discovered it in the past few years. My poor child, this is all your father''s fault, your father still wants to take good care of you, your father hasn''t seen you get married yet ¡­ "


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge played with the ring as he watched Xi Hong Sheng cry in front of him, and said indifferently: "This daughter of yours had saved my life when you were young, that''s why I came here today to meet you, to let you die to understand."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was startled. One piece of news was more than one piece of news, and in the end, he exclaimed in shock, "Your majesty, f * * k, this subject does not deserve to die. I beg your grace, your majesty."


    "The punishment is not death, but you actually dared to hide the Imperial Jade Seal. Do you know that this is the crime of stealing a country?" ''s eyes were filled with killing intent, he opened his mouth and stared straight at the face that looked like jade, he did not know what to say.


    "You didn''t expect us to find it, did you?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge lowered his head and looked at his own Banshou. He suddenly thought of Xi Jiu Er''s pair of eyes, and his heart slightly sunk.


    "Your Majesty, this commoner doesn''t know what you''re talking about ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng said hoarsely.


    "You don''t know?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge finally looked straight at Xi Hong Sheng, and spoke word by word: "I ask you, how did your Xi Family steal the Imperial Jade Seal?" It was only after he ascended the throne that he found out that there was no Imperial Jade Seal. He had plotted for the throne, and now that even the Imperial Jade Seal was a fake, he felt as if he was tickled by a cat. He had to return the Imperial Jade Seal, not to mention that he was worried that the person holding the seal would have the intention of usurping his position.


    Later on, he understood that this Imperial Jade Seal was lost at the late stage of the late stage of the late stage Emperor. After checking them one by one, he focused on a few places, the Xi Family being one of them.


    Logically speaking, Xi Family, this kind of middle ranking official, would not attract too much attention. There was no military power or colluding with officials, it was very different. The fault lay with the two daughters of the Xi Family, Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong.


    The title of first talented girl and number one beauty was nothing, but it would not be right for Xi Family to let them into the palace after opening up all sorts of connections. If not for the lucky chance of finding out that the Xi Family was very close to the Mubai ¡­


    "This commoner doesn''t know what the emperor is going to say ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng said in a heavy voice.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge slowly got up and stepped out of the old doors. Xi Hong Sheng suddenly screamed, "Your majesty, this commoner will say anything, anything. I only hope that you can spare this commoner''s wretched life ¡­"


    "I hate bargaining the most." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge left without looking back.


    In the dark corridor of the prison, Xi Hong Sheng''s heart-wrenching screams rang. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge left the Sky Prison and rushed straight to the imperial study to prepare for the imperial edict. The Eunuch Hai was being grinded, and according to Xi Hong Sheng''s crime, there would be nine families involved, looks like the Emperor is going to protect the Princess Laifu?


    When the imperial edict reached Xi Mansion, only a few people accepted it.


    The eunuch''s face was filled with impatience. Third Wife called out to him but he ignored him and replied, "What are you waiting for? Kneel down and receive the imperial edict. I still have important matters to attend to."


    Third Wife suddenly had a bad premonition. Could it be that this Xi Family was really going to die?


    "The Emperor''s Mandate is delivered to the heavens: Xi Hong Sheng taught the women to be unkind ¡­" The eunuch said something about Third Wife s but she did not hear it all. She only knew one thing, Xi Hong Sheng will be beheaded tomorrow at noon! Xi Family was really finished ¡­


    Since when did the eunuch leave for the Third Wife? Mother Fang sat her properly and comforted her, "Madame, you have to pull yourself together. The two little Young Master s still need you."


    "Right, you''re right. For the sake of peace, I will also recover." Third Wife only thought of one son ¡ª ¡ª Xi Ping. As the saying goes, with Teng Qingshan around, how could he be afraid of not having any firewood in the future?


    When the Third Wife saw this, he could only sigh. In truth, Xi Rui was very filial to the Third Wife, but no matter what, he could not compare to Xi Ping.


    "Let''s pack up and go." Third Wife''s expression was so cold that even when he opened his mouth, he still shut his mouth. She wanted to ask, was Xi Hong Sheng going to send her off tomorrow?


    Xi Family was finished! Xi Jiu Er took a sip of tea. She had already expected the outcome of Xi Hong Sheng, and wasn''t surprised at all. Wei Guogong saw that she did not have any expression on his face when he heard of Xi Hong Sheng killing everyone, and could not help but feel pain in his heart. Just how much of an injury did he have to make this child be so heartless?


    "Jiu Er, come over here. Grandfather has something to tell you." Wei Guogong waved her hand.


    Xi Jiu Er returned to reality and obediently sat down. "Grandfather?"


    "Grandfather never asked for anything in his life. Can you promise me one thing?"


    "What is it?" Xi Jiu Er casually asked.


    "No, you have to promise me, or I won''t tell you." Wei Guogong spoke stubbornly like a child.


    Xi Jiu Er frowned: "Then I can''t agree to it."


    "You." Wei Guogong was surprised.


    "Grandfather, sometimes this trick is useless against granddaughter." Xi Jiu Er stood up and said to the outside: "Jiu Er has gone out for a trip, and will be back in two hours."


    "Old Zhang, you, you see, this, how arrogant are you?" This is so infuriating! " The Wei Guogong pointed at the back of Xi Jiu Er''s figure and was so angry that she almost couldn''t speak. With a collapsed face, Old Zhang helplessly said, "Prince Fu, this old servant isn''t speaking about you.


    "I just wanted to see if she had a grandfather like me in her eyes." Wei Guogong also felt that the move just now was childish. After feeling embarrassed, she said angrily: "Looks like she doesn''t have a grandfather like me in her eyes."

 C192

    The heart-nourishing hall had already become an estate owned by the Wei Guogong, so Xi Jiu Er turned over the dowry Wei Xi Er had given him. Previously, the ex-sister-in-law was suspicious, but when she found out that Xi Hong Sheng was going to be beheaded and the treasury handed over to the public, she came back to check.


    "ex-sister-in-law." Xi Jiu Er just so happened to run into ex-sister-in-law resting.


    Hearing Xi Jiu Er''s voice, the ex-sister-in-law stood up, and Xi Jiu Er immediately held her body back as she laughed: "If you''re tired, then just lie down. For this shop to require you to take care of it in one day, it''s more than enough."


    "I don''t think it''s hard work." ex-sister-in-law rubbed her glabella, trying her best to stay alert.


    "Liu Xiang, give me the thing."


    Liu Xiang retrieved a small and exquisite embroidered box from her bosom and handed it over to ex-sister-in-law. The ex-sister-in-law''s tiredness immediately disappeared without a trace and she held onto the embroidered box ¡­ Could it be ¡­ Could it be? Now that the Xi Family was destroyed, was it time to fulfill the promise she had made with his?


    "This is a type of priming medicine. It has no color and no smell and will not be detected by others. It will be related to the insect in that person''s body. As long as it smells the priming medicine in your body, it will die. We won''t let anyone find out for a while, so you can rest assured. " Xi Jiu Er said with a solemn face, "I will do what I promised you."


    ex-sister-in-law''s hands were trembling as her breathing quickened. After a long while, she calmed down and put the medicine into her pocket, "Thank you, Princess. If there is a next life, I will definitely be your saddle for you."


    She wanted him to avenge her, and he needed a good hand in management. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "When the time is ripe, I will think of a way for you to enter the palace. You better take care of yourself."


    Her long skirt swayed, and suddenly, the ex-sister-in-law raised her voice and said: "Princess, please wait, please accept this servant''s bow."


    "ex-sister-in-law, quickly get up." When Xi Jiu Er turned around, ex-sister-in-law had already gotten off the bed and kowtowed with a "dong" sound. How could Xi Jiu Er support him?


    Three solid kowtows, ex-sister-in-law finally stood up, her forehead was already swollen.


    Liu Xiang immediately went to find medicine, and Xi Jiu Er chided: "What are you doing? This is what I should do. "


    "Hehe ¡­" "If it weren''t for you, I wouldn''t even have had a chance for revenge ¡­" ex-sister-in-law held the embroidered box tightly in her hand to her chest, as if she was receiving some kind of comfort.


    After leaving the heart-nourishing hall, Xi Jiu Er planned to return to the Duke''s Palace, but when she found out that the Xi Family had been captured, she was slightly shocked. She cursed inwardly to herself that Chun Hua was still in the capital even after spending so much effort? If it wasn''t seeking death, what else could it be?


    Escape? Escaping what? It was only when Xi Jiu Er asked more details that she realized Chun Hua had killed someone! So it turns out that when Chun Hua was carrying the silver and running, she was caught by the sharp eyed people, Chun Hua accidentally killed him, and this scene just happened to be witnessed by someone. Chun Hua had ran for her life the whole night in order to not take responsibility.


    Now, First Lady gave the same surname to the balding boss and took his life. First Lady was imprisoned. The Wang family''s people had already cut off all connections with the ''First Lady''. They all said that their daughter was just spilled water that couldn''t be taken back, that the Xi Family was gone overnight, they didn''t want the Wang family to suffer too.


    "Princess, she won''t give us up right ¡­" Liu Xiang asked worriedly.


    Xi Jiu Er was also worried about this happening. With a slight frown, she said lightly: "Let''s go."


    Xi Wan Feng was not the only one who killed Miss Zheng and Yun Qing. The Zhong Family was like a merchant, Zhong Tang Jun had let the Zhong Family go bankrupt this time, the Zhong Family lost his official position, the Mrs. Zhong was currently holed up in her mother''s house, eating a meal that was hard to swallow, sleeping on a hard bed ¡­ Due to the change in her mother''s family, Zhong Yue He''s life in her husband''s house was worse than a maid''s ¡­ All of this was because of Xi Wan Feng.


    But Xi Wan Feng? After being locked up, he was brought back to the Prince Xian''s Mansion, and there was no follow-up.


    In just a few short days, Master Zhong was completely dispirited. Mrs. Zhong bit his lips and the venomous aura in his eyes made others cowardly look at his. She hated his, hated Xi Family, and hated Xi Wan Feng even more! It must be Xi Wan Feng who hooked his own son, how could Zhong Tang Jun lose his mind and cause such a disaster? It was already too late to say anything, since she didn''t have much to live for now. Before she died, he would have to find someone to carry his behind.


    "Madame ¡­" The mother came to ask for medicine, "Drink the medicine."


    After the Mrs. Zhong finished his medicine, he said with a gloomy face: "I have something that I want you to do. You must do it well."


    Mother had a bad premonition, Mrs. Zhong felt like he was finishing the last thing in his life, and his heart tensed up: "Madame, even if this old servant dies, I will take care of this matter well."


    "Good, good. Come with me, I have something for you to do. " The corners of Mrs. Zhong''s mouth curled up as he revealed a sinister smile of vengeance.


    Prince Xian''s Mansion, when Xi Wan Feng heard the news that Xi Hong Sheng was about to be beheaded, only after a while did he regain his senses, only to hear a loud sound. Xi Wan Feng quickly turned his head, and his heart shrunk.


    "Your ¡­ Your Highness ¡­" Xi Wan Feng''s expression changed, he unconsciously retreated, and forced out a smile: "I''ve already pretty much finished preparing the medicine you want, in a few more days it will be ready."


    "Hmph." Prince Xian landed and slowly said, "I believe you already know what happened outside. Your father will be beheading tomorrow, so do you want to see him off?"


    The hatred in Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed past, the entire capital knew what she had done. The reason why Xi Family had lost to her was all because of her.


    She couldn''t stand being scolded by thousands of people while pointing at her back. Moreover, did she even have father-daughter relationship with Xi Hong Sheng? Because of Xi Jiu Er, she was not favoured in the Xi Mansion, and had fallen to such a state. Even as a father, Xi Hong Sheng, she must not shirk her responsibilities.


    "I''ll send you over tomorrow to take a look." Prince Xian smiled, got up and left.


    Jiyaa! The house was locked again. Xi Wan Feng bit her lips as blood gushed out from her mouth. Slowly, she turned her gaze to the medicine bottle at the side. She had already made that medicine a long time ago, so she was waiting for a chance to let the Prince Xian take it again. After so long, she couldn''t wait any longer ¡­ Perhaps, this was a good way to take Xi Jiu Er''s life.


    "If only one more type of medicine was added, Xi Jiu Er''s life would be lost ¡­" Xi Wan Feng opened her mouth, her small, pale face twisted so badly that her original appearance could no longer be seen.


    Xi Jiu Er only felt that her body was swaying as she sat on the carriage. All these years of vigilance caused her to be instantly shocked, her hands formed a motion to sweep the empty area, only to hear a woman''s voice saying: "Sigh, I don''t know when I will arrive." The voice was somewhat lazy, and after asking the question, it immediately gave people a shock.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly opened her eyes. A pair of eyes that were filled with fatigue looked extremely similar to her. Even though Xi Jiu Er was already used to being calm and collected, she took a step back in fear. A female servant sat behind him, and her body passed through him, shocking him yet again.


    "Madame, there''s a person outside who''s injured ¡­" The voice of the driver.


    Xi Jiu Er was still in a daze, she then saw Wei Xi Er lift up the curtain to take a look, she did not know what she was thinking, but she touched her lower abdomen and hesitated: "Let''s see if she is still alive, if she is, then we can save her."


    "Yes." The coachman replied.


    The servant girl said worriedly: "Madame, that''s not good. We are all women, what if we meet an evil person?"


    "It''s alright, I can''t just ignore such a thing. I want my child in my womb to be virtuous and do good deeds." Wei Xi Er said indifferently.


    "Madame... "He, he''s about to die ¡­" The coachman said.


    Wei Xi Er and the servant got off the carriage and looked, while Xi Jiu Er followed behind them. This was a rather remote mountain road that very few people passed.


    "Cough ¡­" The dying man on the side of the road was already breathing more and breathing less. Xi Jiu Er saw that he dressed like an ordinary person without a doubt. What was suspicious was that the robe looked like a night attire.


    Suddenly, no one expected the dying man to suddenly grab Wei Xi Er, pull out something from his chest, give it to her with all his might, and say: "Wh ¡­ Something... "Hand it over!" Before he could finish, he tilted his head and breathed his last.


    No one knew what was in the package, but Wei Xi Er had no choice but to keep it, and left after saying a few words to the man.


    "Madame, what is inside?" The maidservant asked curiously.


    Wei Xi Er frowned, and shook her head: "It''s better to pretend to not know about other people''s things!"


    Noticing her hand intentionally or unintentionally rubbing against the bag, Xi Jiu Er speculated about what exactly this thing was ¡­


    Xi Mansion... Once Wei Xi Er went back, she rested immediately and carefully placed the thing inside her own box. Box... It was the jewelry box that Xi Jiu Er had found.


    Deep into the night, Xi Hong Sheng came over and asked, "I heard from the carriage driver that something happened to you two today?"


    "Hehe, it''s nothing. It''s just a small matter." Wei Xi Er''s expression was light, as though she did not want to bring up this matter.


    Xi Jiu Er squinted, there was something that Xi Hong Sheng did not know about in this huge Xi Mansion. Seeing mother''s indifferent attitude, it seemed like the relationship between the two wasn''t that good ¡­


    "I heard he gave you something. Give it to me, let me take a look." Xi Hong Sheng anxiously said, the greed in her eyes could not be hidden even if she had to hide it well, and she understood what was going on.


    Perhaps marrying a chicken and following a dog was like marrying a chicken and following a dog. Since they were already married and now they had children, so what if they found out that he wasn''t a good person? He couldn''t possibly cancel the engagement, right?


    The disgust flashed past Wei Xi Er''s eyes, and she said indifferently: "It''s in my makeup box."


    As if he had noticed the change in his wife, Xi Hong Sheng coughed and said, "Don''t take it to heart. I''m just worried that it might be an ominous thing. These words made Wei Xi Er feel more comfortable, he recalled that the man was indeed suspicious, and nodded: "Look, if it''s something bad, then throw it away."


    "Right." Xi Hong Sheng took it over and opened it, his expression changed greatly. He took a deep breath when he saw the same thing with Xi Jiu Er: Imperial Jade Seal! Xi Hong Sheng was a greedy man. No, any man was greedy. This was a type of nature, only after Xi Hong Sheng married Wei Xi Er would his career gradually improve, the Imperial Jade Seal was an unbearably enticing gift to him. Xi Hong Sheng''s expression changed a few times, when a voice suddenly sounded from beside him: "What''s wrong? Look at your face... "This ¡­"


    Before Wei Xi Er even had the chance to look clearly, she saw Xi Hong Sheng frantically stashing away, excitement, fear, greed, lost, and other expressions all appearing on his face, all twisted to the point that Wei Xi Er was startled. Wei Xi Er only looked at the rough outline: "What, what is this thing?"


    "Nothing, don''t worry about it." Xi Hong Sheng picked up the thing and ran off in panic. There were only two people in the room, Wei Xi Er''s face was filled with suspicions, could it be that this was really something ominous? His heart was filled with fear and unease. Not long after, Xi Hong Sheng appeared again, her face displaying an abnormal red color.


    "Did you see what that was just now?" Xi Hong Sheng asked.


    Something was not right, something was not right! Xi Hong Sheng''s expression was strange.


    "It seems to be some kind of jade ¡­" Wei Xi Er recalled, and did not notice the killing intent in Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes.


    "Is that so? Today, I saw it, heard it, pretended that nothing had happened, and didn''t want anyone to mention it, okay? "Otherwise, we''re going to suffer ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes were wide open, he was extremely frightened by his appearance, and nodded: "I understand."


    Xi Hong Sheng did not seem to be at ease. When he left, the killing intent in his eyes had not disappeared. Xi Jiu Er suddenly realised, the death of mother was also related to him, if he did not turn a blind eye, would a trash like First Lady dare to scheme against her only daughter? She''s not living anymore? There must be a concealment from Xi Hong Sheng!


    Hehe ¡­ Fortunately she did not forget about Xi Hong Sheng, and thought that she was extremely foolish when she thought about how she had planned to let him go because he was her father. Now that he understood this, he understood many things. Why Xi Hong Sheng wanted the two sisters Xi Wan Feng to enter the palace, he had his own plans.


    It was a pity, however, that the one foot tall devil was ten feet tall, how could Xi Hong Sheng even compare to the members of the Ji Tian Clan?

 C193

    "Go, you must pry open Xi Hong Sheng''s mouth for us. We want to know how he stole the Imperial Jade Seal." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge held onto the dragon head and said with a gloomy face: "Tell him that if he gives us his instructions, we can spare his life."


    "Yes." The man at the bottom said with an expressionless face.


    The moonlight outside the window was bright and clear, the moonlight was like a veil. Sitting on the dragon throne, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge couldn''t wait to kill Xi Hong Sheng. Xi Jiu Er was not simply a savior to him, he knew that the Prince Xian liked her, he also knew a little about the poison and amnesia in the Prince Xian, he knew everything about the Prince Xian''s Mansion like the back of his hand.


    Suddenly, he scoffed, and said ''a world and a world, a pair''.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge closed his eyes, while the Eunuch Hai stood quietly at the side. About an hour later, a man walked in with calm steps, knelt and said, "Your Majesty ¡ª This subject has asked." Xi Hong Sheng said that back then when Madame Xi had returned to her residence, she met a dying man.


    "Madame Xi? Wei Xi Er? " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge frowned. The news of the Imperial Jade Seal being in Xi Mansion was also told to him by the Wei Guogong. Feeling suspicious, an old man in official uniform came over and said, "Your Majesty ¡ª this old official has something to say." This old man was Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s master, and could be considered one of the trusters in the palace.


    "Tutor ¡ª" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge frowned, his eyes signalling for him to be patient. As expected, the old man calmed down and spoke a terrifying piece of news. "This old official has discovered that the Imperial Jade Seal is a fake."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s tall figure slightly shook, his expression extremely terrified. "What did you say, the Imperial Jade Seal is fake?" He had spent so much effort to obtain the fake Imperial Jade Seal? Was the heavens toying with him, or was it the heavens'' will? Did it mean that the world couldn''t be his? Once the idea was born, it wouldn''t go away.


    "Fake..." "Fake..." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge muttered to himself, what went wrong? Could it be that the jade seal Xi Hong Sheng obtained from his hands was fake? Or was the Imperial Jade Seal swapped with Xi Hong Sheng, or was it someone else other than Xi Hong Sheng? He thought of the Wei Guogong in his mind! Could it be him? Wei Guogong didn''t have a son, only a granddaughter like Xi Jiu Er. He was loyal to the country, so she shouldn''t be doing this. But, to know the face and not the heart, who knows what Wei Guogong is plotting?


    "Go, find Xi Hong Sheng." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge almost squeezed these words out of his gritted teeth as he waited for the man next to him to leave. He instructed the Imperial Tutor, "Go and take out the two pieces of the Imperial Jade Seal."


    Xi Hong Sheng kneeled on the floor of the light mirror and saw his own face filled with dejection. He carefully bowed to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge and said, "This commoner pays his respects to Your Majesty.


    "Honored tutor ¡ª"


    The old man passed two identical Imperial Jade Seals to Xi Hong Sheng. Xi Hong Sheng glanced at Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge in confusion, and heard Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge speak in a calm and composed manner: "We are in a good mood today, and we will give you two Imperial Jade Seals. One of the two is real, if you choose the real one, we will spare your life."


    Xi Hong Sheng did not doubt his words. Everyone said that it was indeed difficult to guess the zodiac''s Sacred Will, and it was a rare chance, so Xi Hong Sheng did not want to give it up. He looked left and right, feeling that something was amiss. Look again... Looking again, Xi Hong Sheng''s face became ugly. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Your majesty, none of this is true."


    "Oh?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge raised his eyebrows, "How did you know?"


    "These two Imperial Jade Seals are different from this commoner''s ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng was confused, he did not understand Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s plan, and could only guess that his jade seal was fake. His position was low and he had never seen a true Imperial Jade Seal. If he were to be ruined by a fake one, it would truly be an injustice. The stifling feeling in his chest was unbearable.


    "When was the last time you saw your Imperial Jade Seal?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge straightened his upper half of his body, and asked.


    Xi Hong Sheng thought of something so fast that he couldn''t catch it at all, and said respectfully: "Roughly a dozen or so days ago ¡­"


    "Do you know that the Imperial Jade Seal you found in your Xi Mansion is a fake?! Speak, who took the real Imperial Jade Seal? " The corner of Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s mouth curled up slightly, and revealed a charming smile: "Tell me, I will spare your life."


    Xi Hong Sheng blurted out: "It''s Xi Jiu Er."


    "How can you be so sure?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked indifferently as he retracted his heart.


    "This girl is quite clever. My Imperial Jade Seal is hidden very secretly. It''s not something that an ordinary person can find." Killing intent flashed past Xi Hong Sheng''s eyes, he was in such a dire straits that Xi Jiu Er and Wei Guogong did not come to help him. Wow, I''ll just drag them into the water and see if they still save him or not. had long seen through his thoughts, and said indifferently: "Besides her, who else?"


    Xi Hong Sheng thought about the opportunities to take revenge on the people who had offended him, and said: "I come to this commoner''s study many times a day, what I have done is ¡­"


    The next day. Dawn. A hint of the chilliness of winter.


    The Wei Guogong had long been practicing his sword in the courtyard. Xi Jiu Er looked at the sword in front of him, and said: "Grandfather, you practiced very well." Wiping his sweat while holding the kernels, Wei Guogong had a look of enjoyment on her face. Just as she was about to brag about it, she suddenly remembered that the little girl was angry at him yesterday, so she waved her little hands while wiping his sweat and said unhappily: "Yo, you still have my grandfather in your eyes now, it''s not easy."


    Hearing his strange voice, Xi Jiu Er was overjoyed. He leaned over and laughed, "Jiu Er was thinking of grandfather all the time."


    "Hmph." It was rare for his granddaughter to act so coquettishly. Wei Guogong also didn''t have a good expression as he asked with a slightly relaxed expression, "Why did you wake up so early today?"


    "Hehe, aren''t I here to please grandfather ¡­" Xi Jiu Er giggled, she was a little naive and innocent.


    Wei Guogong let out a long sigh. Her face was full of self-blame, and her eyes were completely red. Now that the Xi Family is finished, I am your only family member, what''s wrong with watching you get married and have children? She only thought of how his grandfather would be able to suppress that kid while he was still alive, and how once his grandfather left, the world would come to humiliate him and coax him. If he was deceived and lived a life worse than being a servant, could his grandfather''s spirit in heaven rest in peace? I''m afraid I''ve already crawled out of the graveyard. "


    "Grandpa ¡­"


    "Jiu Er, Grandfather only wants to help you out in this world ¡­" "Your mother left grandfather a long time ago, and left you alone, Miao Miao. You said ¡­" had also experienced the true meaning of Wei Guogong''s words, so she knew that marriage was possible ¡­


    "Grandfather, why must a woman marry? It''s good not to get married and live your life by yourself. " Xi Jiu Er frowned, "Sometimes we don''t necessarily have to follow the rules of the secular world and imprison ourselves."


    The Wei Guogong blinked her eyes as she stared at Xi Jiu Er. She then stood up and shouted angrily: "You little girl, what are you blabbering about!


    "Grandfather ¡­" What Jiu Er said... " These were all her own thoughts.


    "Old Zhang, Old Zhang ¡­" The Wei Guogong suddenly shouted loudly. Xi Jiu Er immediately pulled his hand and comforted him: "Grandfather, it''s Jiu Er''s fault. Jiu Er will never think like this again, definitely not."


    Then, Wei Guogong shook her hand off and insisted on coming to Elder Zhang. Elder Zhang ran over in a hurry, trembling slightly he asked: "Prince Fu, what''s wrong? "What''s wrong?"


    "Go, bring me my sword. Today, I''m going to commit suicide." Wei Guogong said angrily.


    Old Zhang''s chin was about to fall off, his eyes slowly moved towards Wei Guogong''s hand: "Prince Fu, isn''t that the sword you''re holding?"


    Wei Guogong''s eyes flashed, he raised her head and moved it towards his neck without hesitation, Xi Jiu Er screamed out, "Grandfather!" His breathing stopped, and at that moment, she understood, marriage was more important, what marriage, letting her marry was fine.


    Fortunately, Old Zhang reacted quickly and jumped forward to stop the Wei Guogong. Even so, the Wei Guogong''s neck was still injured. Old Zhang cried, "My Prince Fu, what''s wrong with you? Why are you trying to kill yourself?! You''re making people die!" He secretly wiped the sweat off his forehead. Luckily, they had understood each other''s eyes for many years. He had risked his life to stop them, and his face was filled with fear.


    "Let go! Let me die! I don''t want to live anymore!" Wei Guogong said in grief: "My granddaughter is unfilial, I want to die from anger ¡ª ¡ª to heaven!"


    Old Zhang could not help but retort, Prince Fu, there doesn''t seem to be any difference with a shrew like you. He coordinated with him and said, "How did a princess offend Prince Fu? Quickly apologize to Prince Fu."


    "Grandfather, your granddaughter is wrong. Your granddaughter will never bring up this matter again. Marry, if you want Jiu Er to marry anyone, Jiu Er will definitely not say a word of disagreement." Xi Jiu Er had a feeling that she had recovered from her loss as she went forward to bandage Wei Guogong''s wound. The corner of Liu Shui''s mouth twitched behind him.


    Wei Guogong''s face was stern and displeased: "You must be here to trick me. You''re going to change your mind later."


    "I won''t, Jiu Er will do as she says." Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said: "Grandfather, don''t speak anymore, once you do, blood will flow again."


    "So what if I''m bleeding? My heart is bleeding too." Wei Guogong scoffed coldly, "Remember what you said. If not, you should apologize to my head."


    "Grandfather, I''m sorry. It''s all because of granddaughter''s willfulness. I won''t do it again." Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said.


    "Really?" Wei Guogong''s face was full of disbelief, looking at how it seemed, if the answer wasn''t satisfactory, he would immediately die again. How could Xi Jiu Er dare to say something that would make him angry? She hurriedly said, "Whatever grandpa says in the future, it''s fine."


    "Best." Wei Guogong eased her expression. That small injury was nothing at all, and it was only because Old Zhang understood the meaning behind her eyes that she did not fail to live up to the expectations she had for so many years.


    The Wei Guogong ate two big bowls of porridge. Xi Jiu Er, on the other hand, had an average appetite, and her favorite steamed bun on the table didn''t have much interest in it either. Wei Guogong saw all of this and knew what was wrong with her. She pretended not to know as she said, "Why aren''t you eating?! Your cooking skills are quite good today!"


    "Today is Xi Hong Sheng''s execution, I''m going to send you off." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently as she put down her chopsticks.


    "What are you doing?" Wei Guogong was unhappy.


    Xi Jiu Er slightly smiled, still acting like how a gentle breeze brushed past her face: "Of course it''s to make him beg for death."

 C194

    Once something happened in the Xi Family, it set off a panic. Everyone felt themselves to be in danger, and did not dare to have anything to do with the Xi Family. If Xi Wu Er was not pregnant in Han Family, her days would not be good. Xi Wan Rong was already crazy, Han Family did not need to do anything to wait for her to bring about her own destruction. Xi Wu Er took Xi Jiu Er''s medicine and became pregnant not long after. She was raised like an empress dowager in the Han Family, and Han Chang Sheng followed her instructions obediently. As to whether or not this child could be born, Xi Jiu Er was not sure, but would depend on whether or not Xi Wu Er could survive.


    Yun Qing Ran had a pretty good relationship with him, but this time, Yun Qing Ran actually came as well. With Shi Chen Wen following behind them, the two of them seemed to be in an awkward situation, and their faces looked extremely unnatural. The execution ground was already filled with onlookers as they whispered amongst themselves. Xi Jiu Er, Yun Qing Ran and the rest stood on the stage and looked at the crowd below, Yun Qing Ran frowned: "Jiu Er, grieve for Xi Family''s misfortune."


    Xi Jiu Er bit her lips and laughed bitterly: "If I did not have Grandfather''s protection, I''m afraid that I would not even be able to become a Miss right now."


    "Jiu Er, even if you don''t do anything, you''re still my friend." Yun Qing Ran pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand and frowned: "I see that your father doesn''t seem to be good to you. These words were spoken out of relief or something else, Xi Jiu Er''s heart was shocked. He did not know what Yun Qing Ran experienced that made him change so much.


    "What nonsense is this?" Shi Chen Wen shouted.


    Yun Qing Ran coldly snorted, "None of your business, what I''m saying is clearly the truth. If Xi Hong Sheng truly cared about Jiu Er, why did he ignore him for more than ten years? "Hrmph." As she opened her mouth to say something, Shi Chen Wen''s complexion became worse and worse. Then, she went silent, it wasn''t as if she was wrong. Xi Family did not give Jiu Er anything.


    "That bitch actually came." Suddenly, Yun Qing Ran screamed.


    A pale-faced woman wearing a plain long skirt slowly walked over. She wasn''t an absolute beauty, but her coolness gave her a different kind of charm. Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but admire this woman at times. She had always been a cruel, merciless, and tenacious woman. Even now, she could walk over expressionlessly ¡ª ¡ª Xi Wan Feng.


    Xi Wan Feng smiled faintly, with a kind of seductive beauty, like a ghost girl. Xi Jiu Er stared at her face, and started laughing as well: "Princess Xian is here to see how terrible your injuries are, right?"


    Xi Wan Feng bit her lips. When a person was filled with so much hatred that they had no place to live, that kind of hatred would become engraved in their bones. Xi Wan Feng revealed a weak smile, "This is a grudge between you and I, I never thought that I would be able to implicate Xi Family. What''s more, didn''t you always want to kill Xi Family? I helped you indirectly, so you should be happy. "


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t speak and turned to face Shi Chen Wen. "General Shi, take Qing Ran and leave.


    Shi Chen Wen didn''t like Xi Jiu Er, the good impression he had disappeared. This girl was too cold, too scheming. He didn''t want Qing Ran to be contaminated, so he left with him. Who knew that after this separation, the next time they would meet would be a different story.


    "Xi Jiu Er, I blame you for everything today. What, are you happy to see Xi Family in such a sorry state? Hahaha ¡­ You should be happy, because I helped you clear the Xi Family, which is an obstacle. " Xi Wan Feng''s footsteps carried a kind of amorous feeling, and she also laughed: "Isn''t it so? If you didn''t carry this scolding on my back, how could I be so carefree and happy?"


    "So what if you curse? Could it be that he can''t take a bite out of me? In this life, even if I were to crawl out from hell, I will still eat your flesh and chew your bones. " Xi Wan Feng''s scarlet eyes were extremely terrifying. He stood to the side and stared at her in alarm, afraid that she would go crazy and harm him.


    "Have you ever seen what Hell looks like? Xi Wan Feng, let me tell you, hell is a place where the living and the dead die. I''ll come from where I am so I can find you and your mother to take your life. And Xi Hong Sheng was only a type of foil. You and I will never stop... In this life, or the next, you and I will be enemies. " Xi Jiu Er''s rosy lips opened, and her beautiful face gave Xi Wan Feng a creepy feeling, as if Xi Jiu Er was the real woman who had walked out of hell.


    The fear in Xi Wan Feng''s eyes did not escape Xi Jiu Er''s eyes. Xi Jiu Er laughed mockingly, and then sneered at the scene below: "Today, I''ll let you watch a good show."


    "Is that so? I coincidentally have a good show to show Little Sister Jiu Er. " Xi Wan Feng took a deep breath, and slowly walked to the front and stood shoulder to shoulder with Xi Jiu Er. Damn it, how could she let this bitch, Liu Shui, leave? She only needed a little time to make Xi Jiu Er die a graveless death.


    The door slowly opened, and a few well-trained men pushed a prisoner cart over.


    Xi Jiu Er squinted his eyes, at this time, Xi Hong Sheng''s execution time was not up yet, so who was this person? Focusing his eyes, it was actually Chun Hua! From the looks of it, she did not escape.


    Chun Hua was twisting and turning in the prison cart like a wild beast who was struggling in fear. Her mouth was covered by the dirty cloth and she let out a whining sound. The crowd began to discuss this. Xi Jiu Er realized that she could still smile even at such a time. It was too scary, and at the same time, she had a bad premonition. When she fought with Xi Jiu Er, she had never had the upper hand, and every turn of events caused her to be so angry that she would vomit blood.


    "What are you laughing for?" Xi Wan Feng could not help but ask.


    "Nothing." Xi Jiu Er bit her lips as she coldly snorted, and then laughed as well: "Xi Jiu Er, let''s watch the show today."


    "Did you see that, this is the once glorious Madame Xi, he is now just like a madman."


    "What crime did she commit ¡­"


    "Beat him to death. He wants his life in exchange for his own."


    "Oh ¡­" Sigh, Xi Family fell just like that ¡­ "


    "That''s right, what first talented girl ¡­"


    "To say that this first talented girl is the unlucky one, if not for her, Xi Family would definitely not have ended up like this, who gave birth to this daughter of theirs, they really would have been doomed for eight lifetimes."


    "That''s right, so you must teach your daughter well."


    Xi Wan Feng''s expression did not change, she was no longer that innocent young lady back then, she would lose her footing if she heard any rumors or rumors. At that time, someone had protected her, but now, who else could protect her and protect her from the elements? All of this was because of Xi Jiu Er. She was right. In this life, the enmity between the two of them would only end with death.


    Suddenly, the rag in Chun Hua''s mouth fell, and her crazed voice resounded throughout the execution grounds: "I am not Madame Xi, I am not, I am Chun Hua ah. I just have a similar appearance to Madame Xi, I am not her. " Unfortunately, in the eyes of everyone, she was merely running away. Everyone looked at her with pitiful expressions. Sigh, even now, they were still unwilling to accept reality.


    "It''s the princess, she asked me to pretend to be the Madame Xi. She hid the real Madame Xi, it''s her ¡ª" Chun Hua glanced at the stage, where Xi Jiu Er was expressionlessly looking at her, as though she was still smiling. Chun Hua roared out like a frightened cat: "It''s you, what I''m doing now is all your fault, you slut, slut."


    Xi Jiu Er held onto the kernels, her expression could not be seen clearly. Her shoulders seemed to be trembling, and to others, it looked like she was crying. A gust of wind blew over, revealing her frail body, she was already pitiful enough with her posture, the Madame was obviously wronged, the people in the crowd started to curse her.


    It was becoming increasingly unbearable to look at. Sometimes, these ordinary commoners also wanted to find an outlet to vent their frustrations, discrimination, and jealousy. Xi Wan Feng did not think that the matter would develop in a way that she did not expect. She thought that Chun Hua really wanted to say something, but in the end, it backfired. This was too unexpected ¡­


    Xi Wan Feng didn''t understand human nature at all.


    The distance that Chun Hua was pushed onto the guillotine was very short, but after walking for a long time, she kept insulting Xi Jiu Er, and kept roaring and screaming, like a madman. Xi Jiu Er watched all of this quietly. If this was the real First Lady, how happy would she be? It was a pity that she would never let him off so easily!


    Xi Jiu Er walked down the stage like a fairy, and the crowd couldn''t help but open up a path for him. Chun Hua had thought that she would come for him as soon as she came and said happily, "Princess, come and save me quickly, come and save me quickly."


    Xi Jiu Er held onto the kernels and cried, "mother, don''t worry. Every year, on the day of your death, I will burn some paper, and I will definitely not let you suffer any grievances underground."


    Chun Hua was startled, then she bared her fangs and brandished her claws at Xi Jiu Er: "Slut, slut, you will die a horrible death, die a horrible death."


    "mother, this is the last time I call you mother. I have come to send you off on his behalf." Xi Jiu Er was in extreme grief. If not for Liu Shui''s support, he might have fainted. In an instant, Xi Jiu Er became a well-behaved, well-behaved, and filial child in everyone''s eyes. Even Madame Xi was not her mother, but to be able to do this, then see what her biological daughter was like, standing on the stage expressionlessly, she was truly an unfilial daughter.


    "Bitch, bitch ¡­" Chun Hua scolded, she was already weak.


    The within the crowd spoke with disgust towards Chun Hua: "How can you not know what''s good for you? It''s so shameless to blame others for what you''ve done. "


    "That''s right, it''s so disgusting."


    "The most disgusting thing is still the Princess Xian. Seeing that her mother did not even come to see him off, she is truly heartless."


    "Shh ¡ª ¡ª stop it, I am in Princess Xian."


    "Princess Xian? "Hmph, I heard from a servant of the Prince''s Mansion that she''s lost her favor."


    Chun Hua was pushed onto the guillotine, and his head was forcibly pressed down by someone ¡­ It glared fiercely at Xi Jiu Er. Crack * A head fell onto the ground, landing in front of Xi Jiu Er with eyes still wide open. Xi Jiu Er sneered, she did not feel guilty about Chun Hua''s death, she had brought everything upon herself. If it wasn''t for her greed, she wouldn''t have lost her life today.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her head and looked at the stage, indicating, could it be that this was a good show for Xi Wan Feng? The bottle in Xi Wan Feng''s hand tightened, it became extremely gloomy.

 C195

    The head landed on the ground, and the crowd cried out in alarm. Someone on the execution ground immediately tidied up everything. Their movements were quick and clean, without leaving any trace of the previous execution. The wheels of the carriage started to turn, and when they looked towards the source of the sound, they saw Xi Hong Sheng being escorted up the execution grounds. Xi Hong Sheng was a man with an elegant demeanor; otherwise, he wouldn''t have married a woman like Wei Xi Er to him. However, the current Xi Hong Sheng seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. His entire person was as dry as a dried bean, his disheveled hair and face were unreadable, and his thin prison clothes made him shiver.


    "Father ¡­" Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth as her body trembled. The lady on the stage who was observing the fight coldly dared to bet that she was definitely not crying, but laughing! Bitch, you really know how to act.


    Xi Hong Sheng was extremely angry at being called "Father". Father my ass, how could I not save him if I were to be his father? He was about to die. No, he didn''t want to die. He was still young. He didn''t want to die so early. In the end, all of this was because of that bitch Wei Xi Er. If it wasn''t for her, why would the Jade Seal have come in front of him?


    "Xi Jiu Er, you kept on calling me father, you unfilial daughter, unfilial daughter. Why didn''t you come and save me?" Xi Hong Sheng cursed, the carriage was like a mad beast, angry and unwilling.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly from the bottom of her heart, she still maintained her image of a ''filial daughter'' on the surface, and choked with sobs: "I also wanted to save father, but the will of the saint is hard to go against, how can a little girl like me change the emperor''s orders? "Your daughter told grandfather to go beg for mercy, but he didn''t even have a holy face ¡­"


    Xi Hong Sheng immediately exploded: "Bullsh * t, speak. If Wei Guogong were to go and plead with the Emperor, she would definitely leave me with a way out." He seemed to have forgotten how he framed Xi Jiu Er and the Wei Guogong in front of Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge.


    "How could there be a father like this, accusing his own daughter. It''s already good enough for her to send him off ¡­"


    "This is shameless, no wonder the Xi Family is gone, it''s not like there''s no reason."


    "This is shameless. How can the emperor''s imperial edict be changed so easily?" You don''t even look at how much you''re talking. "


    "Sigh, poor princess. To have met with such a father in one''s lifetime is indeed unfortunate."


    "That''s right, there''s also an elder sister. It''s clearly all because of her, and right now, she''s not human at all."


    "I heard that this Princess Laifu has been bullied a lot by the First Lady. A good direct descendant''s life in a Miss is worse than a servant''s life."


    Right now, to Xi Hong Sheng, only his life is the most important. He glared venomously at Xi Jiu Er, and said fiercely: "Did you change sides for that thing, or did you and your grandfather both want me dead? You unfilial daughter, you are just like your mother, a bereaved star. "


    Did that thing change? What is it? The Imperial Jade Seal? After counting with her fingers, there was no difference in timing. Xi Jiu Er walked up to Xi Hong Sheng and said to the two officials beside him: "My two brothers, I want to talk to father alone. Sorry to trouble you ¡­"


    Liu Shui passed it to the official, who politely replied, "As long as you don''t delay the time."


    "Liu Shui, father''s face is dirty, help him clean it up." Xi Jiu Er said.


    "Yes."


    A black pill fell out from Liu Shui''s sleeve, swiftly hiding in his hand. He walked up to Xi Hong Sheng and wiped away the dirt on his face, and at this time, he stuffed the seemingly ordinary action pill into his mouth.


    "Weng weng weng ¡­" Xi Hong Sheng realized that he couldn''t speak at all, it must have been something he ate just now that made him speechless! His own daughters were all full of wild ambition; even his own father had dared to scheme against them.


    Xi Hong Sheng stared at Xi Jiu Er, wanting to curse him even more. However, he couldn''t say anything, as if his mouth was filled with something. As long as he spoke, his throat would be filled with burning pain.


    "Father, have a safe trip." Xi Jiu Er moved closer to him quietly and whispered in his ear: "Do you know how long I have waited for this day? I hate all of you. It''s because of you that my mother was killed, so I won''t die in vain. Everything that happened today was caused by you, so I stole the Imperial Jade Seal, and you were the one who got someone to report ¡­ "If there''s a good way to repay evil, there''s a bad way to repay it. Just admit it yourself!"


    Xi Jiu Er had just walked a few steps when she suddenly turned around as if she had thought of something: "I forgot to tell you, Xi Mao is your son.


    Xi Hong Sheng never thought that his youngest daughter would actually be such a malicious girl. He had previously underestimated her! Hmph, Xi Jiu Er, don''t be too happy too early. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge thinks that the Imperial Jade Seal was obtained by the Wei Guogong, and after a while, you will all be done for too.


    There was still fifteen minutes before the decapitation, Xi Hong Sheng suddenly felt that his entire body was itching, as though ten thousand ants were gnawing on his body, the pain was unbearable. He wanted to shout out to vent his pain, but he couldn''t open his mouth at all. He could only bear it.


    He wanted to scratch around, but his hands were chained, so he could only rub against the wooden pillar of the prison cart to stop the itching. However, the more he scratched, the more itchy it felt. Xi Hong Sheng was like a crazy monkey in the prison cart, jumping up and down, his face twisted to the extreme.


    Xi Wan Feng stood on the high platform and coldly watched everything. She had to admit, compared to Xi Jiu Er, she wasn''t ruthless enough. At least she had never schemed against her own biological parents, but Xi Jiu Er was different.


    Xi Hong Sheng walked to the guillotine accompanied by intense pain and itching. His eyes stared straight at Xi Jiu Er, but the other party covered his face and did not even look at him.


    "Time''s up!"


    After the person died, he turned around to face the people on the stage. Suddenly, Xi Wan Feng revealed a cold smile. Xi Jiu Er felt that her smile was different from usual. Xi Wan Feng was slowly growing, and in the future, it would become increasingly difficult to deal with.


    "It''s such a pity that you don''t want to act." Xi Wan Feng ridiculed.


    "My good sister, I learned all of this from you." In his previous life, he had treated his sister with sincerity. It was only until now that he understood what had happened. If not for this good example, how would he be where he was today?


    "Hmph." Xi Wan Feng coldly snorted, "How could I have such good acting skills? I lied to everyone in the world anyway."


    But then, Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed: "How is First Lady doing recently? With your biological daughter, you will definitely recover very quickly!"


    "Thanks to you, I will definitely repay this debt." Xi Wan Feng clenched her fists tightly, but she remained calm and stared at the pool of blood below. She silently told herself that Xi Jiu Er was ruthless, that she was even more ruthless than her! Only then could she win.


    "Do you really think that she is the First Lady?" Xi Jiu Er tidied up her long skirt that was not the least bit messy, and mischievously said: "First Lady and I have a blood feud, how can I easily hand her over to you?" His words were half true and half false, and his eyebrows were slightly bent.


    "So you''re saying that she''s not my mother?" Maybe he had seen through Xi Jiu Er''s extremely emotionless side, the feelings of First Lady Xi Wan Feng instantly became much colder. Sometimes, if you want to defeat someone, you have to be like them. They are a hungry wolf, and you have to make them even hungrier and more brutal.


    "Then do you think that she is your mother? Your flesh and blood cannot be separated from hers, after knowing her for so many years, you still don''t understand her?" As if he had heard Xi Jiu Er''s cold laughter, Xi Wan Feng wanted to go up and ruthlessly push her down to her death. This way, his life would be better, and he wouldn''t have any hope of living a peaceful life with her by his side.


    Xi Wan Feng suddenly asked: "Why does Xi Jiu Er insist on killing me?"


    "Then why did you put me to death?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    This question was completely unanswered, just like two natural enemies. The two of them had to be each other''s mortal enemies if the other party died where they died, and when did ''kill Xi Jiu Er'' become the courage to survive?


    "Goodbye."


    ''s plain long skirt fluttered in the wind, lifting up his sleeves, Xi Jiu Er saw the porcelain bottle in his hand clearly: She has a goal! The sky was filled with dark clouds, as if a storm was about to break. It was as if a storm was about to break at any moment.


    Xi Wan Feng''s figure flickered, Xi Jiu Er gazed at her back. She had only learned to use her techniques after her rebirth, but Xi Wan Feng was different. Xi Jiu Er had never underestimated such a woman before ¡­


    A gust of cold wind blew past, dispersing the crowd on the execution grounds. They all said that in the place of death, hundreds of thousands of lives had been lost, and there were many ghosts. Even Liu Shui shivered, and his body shivered slightly.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at the sky fearlessly, you can''t blame me, if you want to blame something, blame yourselves and your daughter. A cold wind blew across her face, as if she could see Xi Hong Sheng''s ferocious face. Chun Hua died with grievance and grievances in his eyes.


    "Ah! Princess, be careful ¡­" Liu Shui bellowed, he immediately rushed forward and almost tripped Xi Jiu Er who fell off the stage. He was still shaken, and felt that it was very strange. Everything was fine just now, suddenly.


    Xi Jiu Er sucked in a cold breath and shouted, "Xi Hong Sheng, Chun Hua, if you continue to pester me, find me Taoist Priest and have him kill you.


    "Princess ¡­"


    The wind strangely dissipated ¡­

 C196

    Plants, plants, and vines could be seen everywhere outside the carriage. A gust of cold wind blew the curtain of the carriage open. All the people on the road were talking about the Xi Family, and the woman in the carriage was playing with the porcelain bottle in her hand, which was glowing with an extremely beautiful light! In his mind, he kept replaying the scene of Xi Jiu Er killing Xi Hong Sheng. When he thought about it, Xi Wan Feng suddenly laughed.


    "Hehehe ¡­" It was as if a monster was letting out strange gurgling sounds, causing one to feel chills run down their spines.


    "This Princess Xian is too heartless. Because of her, Xi Family ended up like this, and in the end, even her own parents died and didn''t come ¡­"


    "Shh! Do you want to die? How can Princess Xian be a place for us to discuss? If people hear about it, it might bring about some sort of disaster. " The man didn''t say anything immediately after the woman spoke. He probably had the woman stop him from continuing.


    The carriage was slowly passing by, and although the woman''s voice was soft, Xi Wan Feng could still hear it clearly. Could it be ¡­ Was there really a hidden story?


    The woman did not notice these words at all, and said in a low voice: "Old Madam He, who is on good terms with me, told me that aside from the Princess Xian who loves to cause trouble, the reason why Xi Family came to this end today is also due to His Majesty''s intentions. It probably has something to do with the things that we found in the Xi Family a while ago."


    "What''s that?" The man''s brows twitched. The woman shook her head and said, "I''m not sure. I heard it''s something that can behead and exterminate nine clans."


    Whew Xi Wan Feng used her long fingernails to hang onto her palm. She couldn''t deny that Xi Family had met with calamity, but from what the woman had said just now, she guessed that ¡­ With a clang, the carriage driver cried out in regret and said, "Princess, the carriage is broken. This servant will go repair it now. It will take about an hour or even an hour."


    Xi Wan Feng, who was now fully immersed in looking at the carriage driver, lifted the curtain and stared fiercely, wanting to find anything suspicious. He then checked his surroundings without leaving any traces.


    The carriage driver was immediately surrounded by cold air from the bottom of his feet. He had misunderstood Xi Wan Feng''s intention and quickly dismounted, "This servant will go and cultivate right now!"


    Hmph, Xi Wan Feng put down the curtain and sat back down. With her in such an awkward situation, other than returning to the Princess Xian, what else could she do? It was precisely because Prince Xian understood this that she was especially relaxed towards her.


    A loud boom resounded through the sky like firecrackers. Before anyone could react, heavy rain began to fall.


    The rain on the carriage felt like tens of thousands of arrows, even the carriage was filled with rain, the stench of the soil assaulted his nose, Xi Wan Feng could no longer sit still and shouted: "Hurry!"


    "Ah ¡ª yes, yes." The coachman went out in the rain to carry the wheels, and the rain was too heavy for him to see, and it hurt his face. The road ahead was muddy from the rain, and it was even harder to walk on it. The coachman fiddled with the mud for a long time before he finally spoke. "Esteemed wangfei, there''s nothing we can do."


    The sound quickly disappeared into the rain, except for the sound of the rain.


    "Trash." Xi Wan Feng scolded, he was frustrated to the point that he wanted to go berserk, he did not know when the rain would stop, but if it were the next night, would he have to stay in this place until the rain stopped? She didn''t expect the Prince Xian to send people to find her.


    Xi Wan Feng lifted the curtain and the cold wind blew towards him, causing the warm place to immediately become dark and cold. The carriage driver sat on the carriage and his entire body shivered, wearing his rain cape as he scolded this god in his heart more than a hundred times. Of course she also scolded Xi Wan Feng in that direction. She was right, this wangfei was really unlucky, unlucky to have met anyone.


    "What are you still sitting around for? Hurry up and go check if there are any carriages that we can ride with the wind." When he saw the coachman sitting down, he felt a surge of anger.


    The coachman couldn''t help but want to curse, so he got out of the taxi immediately and said, "This servant will go take a look now." When he saw it, he was overjoyed. Not far away, a carriage was slowly approaching. It was difficult to see it clearly through the curtain of rain. In short, it was a carriage.


    Besides, there was a woman sitting on top of the carriage. She was as pale as a piece of paper and had a thin blanket covering her body. Even inside the carriage, there was a large half of her face hidden under the veil. Aside from her, the carriage also had an old woman serving them. She threw the spices in her hands into the incense burner, and the woman''s eyes revealed a venomous look as she glared fiercely at the incense burner.


    "This must be my son protecting me ¡­"


    "Madame... "Calm down ¡­" The old woman said.


    "Cough ¡ª ¡ª cough ¡ª ¡ª" The woman coughed and seemed to have used a lot of strength. However, the old woman kept coughing and looked like she was about to lose her breath.


    The coachman gradually stopped and heard a man''s voice through the rain, "Our coachman is in trouble. Our wheels are stuck in the carriage and won''t be able to get out. Our manor is not too far away. When we return to our manor, we will definitely reward you handsomely. "


    The carriage driver asked, "Madame, look ¡­"


    The lady did not speak, her face contorted with all her might, the old granny quickly said: "Since meeting is fate, Madame has always believed in Buddha, let Madame get on the carriage."


    "Yes." The coachman replied.


    The old granny then whispered to the lady: "Madame, it''s better to not put up with it. Since Young Master is helping us, we cannot let this situation get out of hand."


    "You''re right." The woman took a deep breath and gradually calmed down. Xi Wan Feng went onto the carriage as soon as he heard her. The carriage was not luxurious at all. One could tell that it was just an ordinary house. There was a woman half-lying on the ground, and a woman was sitting on her knees. There was even a place for her to sit.


    Xi Wan Feng swept a glance at the woman''s makeup as he wondered in his heart. The old granny laughed: "Seeing how luxurious this Madame is, you can tell that he is from a wealthy family. Our family''s Madame is sick, upon hearing that the Madame is coming, I immediately wrapped myself in it.


    "Hur hur, no worries. I would like to thank all of you." Xi Wan Feng laughed, he sat down and the carriage gradually started to move. Due to the rain, the road was not easy to walk on, the bumpy road made Xi Wan Feng''s buttocks hurt.


    The incense in the censer made people want to fall asleep. Xi Wan Feng unwittingly glanced at the woman and was surprised to find that she was wearing a ring on her finger. It looked familiar, and he couldn''t recall where he had seen it before.


    "Madame... Have we met before? "


    The girl''s body stiffened as she said, "Hehe, I''ve never seen you before."


    "Is that so ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was in disbelief. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew past and lifted up the carriage''s curtain as well as the woman''s veil. He looked to be around thirty years old, and under his sickly white complexion, he looked extremely familiar.


    It was a pity that the Mrs. Zhong was too late, Xi Wan Feng had already seen it, and when he thought back, he understood Mrs. Zhong''s intentions.


    "You saw it ¡­" Mrs. Zhong decided to not hide it anymore. Her eyes were like poisonous snakes that stuck to the woman in front of her. Today, she was going to avenge her son.


    "Mrs. Zhong, listen to my explanation!" When Xi Wan Feng found out the truth about the Mrs. Zhong, he was already aware that she had stepped into his trap. It was raining outside, where could she escape to?


    "Explanation? Bitch, today I''ll kill you to take revenge for my son. I don''t have much time left, even if I die early I die late, so just accompany me to hell to see Tang Jun ¡­ " Mrs. Zhong''s throat released a sound filled with pleasure as he prepared for revenge, the old granny slowly walked towards Xi Wan Feng.


    "Pa ~ ~ ~"


    Xi Wan Feng pulled out the hairpin and threatened the old granny, "If you dare to come close to me, I''ll kill you immediately."


    The old granny said with a sneer, "I have served Madame for my entire life, and have no children, and have long treated the little Young Master as my own son. Now that the little Young Master is ill, and the little Young Master is dead, what meaning do I have in living?" As she spoke, she took a stance as if she was about to die.


    "Mrs. Zhong, I did not kill your son, Xi Jiu Er did. There are many secrets that you do not know, but it is absolutely true that Xi Jiu Er killed Zhong Tang Jun. Many people were fooled by her, because shhes too crafty. If Madame wants to find an enemy, he should be looking for her and not me. If she were to kill me, she will only let the real culprit get away scot-free. " Xi Wan Feng said anxiously, she had also noticed that there was something wrong with the sandalwood on the carriage, and her body was slowly becoming weak, if this continued, she would definitely die.


    "Cough ¡ª ¡ª cough cough ¡ª" Mrs. Zhong coughed for a while, as if he was going to cough out his lungs. The old granny did not care for Xi Wan Feng to go and help her.


    Xi Wan Feng really wished that she could just cough her head off. It was a pity ¡ª he was alive again and smiling at him.


    "The person who was close to my son was you, right ¡­" Mrs. Zhong said as he panted, "I investigated thoroughly the situation back then, and found out that you, Xi Wu Er and Xi Wan Rong were the ones who planned to murder my son. No, it should be you who planned to murder Xi Jiu Er.


    "No ¡­" Xi Wan Feng didn''t know what the Mrs. Zhong found out, but it was definitely not what he wanted to know. He wanted to explain himself, but the Mrs. Zhong got the lead and said, "This matter doesn''t have anything to do with Xi Jiu Er, I have already found out. I will not let anyone who has hurt my son get away with it, especially you, my son died in your hands. He did not hesitate to throw me, mother, and the entire Zhong Family down for you. Xi Wan Feng, you caused all of this, you can just die with me now, my son likes you so much, aren''t you going to accompany him? "


    The carriage suddenly jolted up, and the Mrs. Zhong let out a "gege gege" sound before laughing loudly. Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that something was amiss, she lifted the curtain and looked around to see where the carriage driver was. In front of him was the cliff.


    "Let''s die together ¡­" "Let''s die together ¡­"


    "You bitch!" Xi Wan Feng scolded loudly. His head was so dark that he could not think anymore. In that moment, Xi Wan Feng seemed to be able to see his own terrified face in the droplets of water in front of him ¡­


    "Hahaha ¡­" Mrs. Zhong laughed: "My son, mother has taken revenge for you ¡­"


    Crack! Crack! A long whip that was like a spirit serpent streaked through the sky. It agilely struck someone at the foot of the mountain!


    Happy National Day ~ ~


    I hope that my treasures will leave something for Man Man to comment on during the National Day... It was best to have a monthly ticket as a reward. That was a type of affirmation towards Man Man!

 C197

    In the Han manor, Xi Wu Er''s current life was comparable to that of the empress dowager.


    This day, a servant boy made a mistake. Originally, it was not a big deal, but it was related to the matter of Xi Wu Er getting drugged not long ago, causing him to become excited when he heard about it. The maid said that it was all being interrogated by the Mrs. Han, so how could Xi Wu Er wait?


    That young servant was a genius. Mrs. Han did not interrogate the mastermind for a long time, in the end, he could only serve him with a heavy punishment, not using him. The Mrs. Han might have been merciful in the past, but since it was related to the issue of the only heir to the Han Residence, he could not be careless at all.


    If the murderer was not found, how could he rest in peace in the future? When Xi Wu Er arrived, he saw a man kneeling in the hall, his body was a mess, and he was dying. "Why did you frame my child, who was the one who instigated you to do this?"


    The man still did not make a sound, the Mrs. Han said: "I have already used my punishment, there was no result from the interrogation."


    Xi Wu Er said angrily: "mother, this matter concerns the children of the Han Family, we cannot let them be sloppy about it. Maybe this matter is related to Xi Wan Rong, or maybe she is just faking it. "


    Xi Wan Rong was like a thorn in her heart, Han Chang Sheng had already said, as long as she did not die, he would play with her however he wanted. Before, she still had some scruples, but now, because she was pregnant, she was unscrupulous. However, there was no way to kill her even if she wanted to.


    Perhaps, this was a good opportunity! No one was more important than the son of the Han Family, including her!


    Mrs. Han frowned, could it be that he was really related to Xi Wan Rong? Then, he continued, "Continue to interrogate me. You must ask me clearly and clearly. You must not neglect any part of it."


    "old mother will go immediately, do not underestimate these mothers, there are many tricks up your sleeve!" This old servant understands, this old servant will go now. "


    After which, he dragged her away, while Xi Wu Er waited here for news, and before long the old mother came back to report. Xi Wu Er immediately said: "Did he say something?"


    "Xiao Wen? Men, bring Xiao Wen in. " Mrs. Han''s face was ashen, Mrs. Han''s mother immediately went to the kitchen to bring Xiao Wen! Not long after, a maid came in. maid shouted: "Why are you guys capturing me!"


    Mrs. Han''s personal mother immediately went over and slapped him. "Why are you shouting so loudly, do you have any rules? Didn''t you see the old Madame here? "


    Xiao Wen felt dizzy from being hit, without saying anything further, he kneeled down and said fearfully: "Servant greets Old Madame." She lowered her eyes to hide the fear in her eyes. He already knew that he had been exposed when someone came looking for his ¡­ It''s over ¡­


    When Mrs. Han thought about how this damned girl harmed the son of the Han Family, how could he still keep his cool? He smashed the tea cup beside him and said angrily, "Are you the only one in the kitchen today when mother is out for convenience?"


    Xiao Wen was extremely afraid. When the ceramic dregs hit her body, it stung and he obediently nodded his head, "It''s Servant."


    From the moment she knelt down, her face had been filled with fear. Was it because she was afraid of meeting her master, or was it because she was afraid of the matter being exposed?


    The old mother said to the Mrs. Han, "That manservant is already dead. After being tortured, he could no longer hold on ¡­"


    "Dead? What did he say before he died? " Mrs. Han asked.


    old mother shook her head and said, "Nothing!"


    The clues about this matter ended just like that? No, she had to find a chance to kill Xi Wan Rong. After returning, she flew into a rage and could not be persuaded by the servant.


    He was fine originally, but in the end ¡­ Blood was flowing out! However, the entire room was filled with people who were frightened. It was unknown if they were angry because of their womb, or because there was a problem with the foetal antidote!


    old mother hurriedly went to find a doctor. Mrs. Han also received the news and came over. This son of the Han Family was someone who was looking forward to see the stars and the moon. If something were to happen, how would she be able to report to the ancestors of the Han Family?


    Mrs. Han could not wait to ask the doctor: "Doctor, is the child alright?"


    The doctor looked at Mrs. Han and stood up saying, "I have already prescribed a new birth control medicine for Young Madame and the child is safe now."


    Mrs. Han heaved a sigh of relief, the heart that was hanging in the air was finally relieved. Unhappily, he asked, "Doctor, what is going on?"


    The young Madame ate some kind of hot and dry food, which caused her to become pregnant ¡­ It''s not easy to eat some nourishing medicinal herbs that are hot and dry. "


    This doctor was not the same doctor as before. He had been visiting the family for several days, and this doctor was recommended by him.


    Mrs. Han, who had experienced many things before, naturally knew that hot and cold things could not be eaten by women who became pregnant. Brick immediately asked the old mother in anger, "What nourishment did you guys give the young Madame?"


    old mother''s face was also filled with anxiety and fear, as she hurriedly said: "Old Madame, many young Madame s normally eat with great attention, they eat according to the instructions of the doctors. It''s cold, it''s hot to the point of not touching anything, and the daily meals have all been seen by this old servant, there''s no way there would be any hot food!"


    This old mother was an old man and an experienced person. The most important thing was that she was someone that Mrs. Han trusted a lot, and she was someone that Mrs. Han married into. Mrs. Han also believed that she would not give Xi Wu Er such hot food.


    The doctor said with certainty, "You haven''t eaten anything hot? Impossible! This old man had felt her pulse just now, and her pulse was frantic and unstable. It''s clear that this thing was eaten not long ago! "


    The doctor''s attitude was resolute and certain. old mother carefully thought about it and then said uncertainly, "Have you just eaten?" His gaze shifted to the foetal antidote that had already drunk its fill: "There''s only this bowl of foetal antidote, but after the doctor opened it, there''s no problem drinking it until now!"


    Mrs. Han immediately said: "Bring that medicine over here and let the doctor have a look. Maybe it''s some black-hearted thing that''s been added inside."


    old mother handed the dregs over to the doctor, who examined them carefully and found a small, dark thing. After rubbing it and smelling it, old mother''s face immediately changed, as she suddenly realized something, "So that''s how it is. No wonder!"


    When Mrs. Han heard this, he knew that the problem was with the medicine, he asked with a gloomy face: "Doctor, is there something wrong with the medicine?"


    The doctor said: "There is indeed a problem, this medicine is originally a foetal antidote, but there is a type of medicine called Interesting. This is very similar to the other medicine of foetal antidote, if you don''t examine it carefully, you won''t be able to find it. It''s extremely easy for pregnant women to miscarry after drinking this medicine! " If pregnant women ate it, it would be easy for them to give birth!


    It seemed like the other party had planned everything meticulously, and was determined to have the life of the child in Xi Wu Er''s womb. Who was it? Who is it? The head of the person who had enmity with the Han Family quickly thought about it. Because Han Chang Sheng was sick, she did not go out to make friends with him. Was he here for Xi Wu Er? Who did Xi Wu Er offend? The only one who wanted Xi Wu Er to die was Princess Xian, and Xi Wan Rong too. Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wu Er''s concern for him seemed to be very good, it wasn''t something she could do ¡­ But who knows?


    Speaking of Princess Xian, she was really a strong character, to actually dare to murder Mubai''s sister, and even poison Yun Family''s mother to death. What was shameless about was that she actually carried Prince Xian and the Young Master on her back and was even harmed by her.


    Thinking about this bold and insidious girl, the Mrs. Han shuddered, cold sweat trickling down his back.


    The doctor doubtfully asked, "Could it be that the doctor who grabbed the medicine is confused?"


    When the old mother heard this, she said in fear: "Doctor, could it be that there was a misunderstanding? I didn''t grab anything wrong before, and this pill isn''t wrong either. "


    Her relationship with the Mrs. Han was far less important than the son of the Han Family, so she served Xi Wu Er with all her might, not daring to be careless at all.


    The doctor''s expression turned ugly and he said unhappily, "Am I the doctor or are you the doctor? Then tell me, why does Young Madame''s stomach hurt? Why don''t you explain it to me? "


    old mother was speechless. She was the one who grabbed the pill, is it still not her responsibility to have problems now? She knelt on the ground with a thump, and said with an anxious look on her face, "Old Madame is wise and clear. I beg Madame to look into this! "


    That''s right, who would be so stupid as to blame him? If this wasn''t courting death, then what was it? Mrs. Han asked with a dark expression: "Other than you, who else has tried this pill?"


    old mother thought for a while before realizing that other than herself, there was also a servant girl in the kitchen! Normally there wouldn''t be any problems, but since she went to relieve herself today, there was a problem. She then said: "It''s Xiao Wen from the kitchen, today when I was brewing the medicine, it was more convenient. At that time, only Xiao Wen was there ¡­." It was self-evident that she had said so.


    "Xiao Wen? Men, bring Xiao Wen in. " Mrs. Han''s face was ashen, Mrs. Han''s mother immediately went to the kitchen to bring Xiao Wen! Not long after, a maid came in. maid shouted: "Why are you guys capturing me!"


    Mrs. Han''s personal mother immediately went over and slapped him. "Why are you shouting so loudly, do you have any rules? Didn''t you see the old Madame here? "


    Xiao Wen felt dizzy from being hit, without saying anything further, he kneeled down and said fearfully: "Servant greets Old Madame." She lowered her eyes to hide the fear in her eyes. He already knew that he had been exposed when someone came looking for his ¡­ It''s over ¡­


    When Mrs. Han thought about how this damned girl harmed the son of the Han Family, how could he still keep his cool? He smashed the tea cup beside him and said angrily, "Are you the only one in the kitchen today when mother is out for convenience?"


    Xiao Wen was extremely afraid. When the ceramic dregs hit her body, it stung and he obediently nodded his head, "It''s Servant."


    From the moment she knelt down, her face had been filled with fear. Was it because she was afraid of meeting her master, or was it because she was afraid of the matter being exposed?

 C198

    Mrs. Han''s face was ashen, her words carried a sharp killing intent, and she enunciated each word clearly: "Then do you know that the foetal antidote has been targeted! Tell me, were you the one who did this? "Be honest and open-minded. I''ll let you go this time. If you don''t say it out loud, I have a lot of ways to make you say it."


    Xiao Wen peeked behind Mrs. Han, his face pale as he shook his head in fear: "Servant didn''t, Servant didn''t ¡­ Servant doesn''t know what it means to be in love with someone.


    Mrs. Han was also a woman who had been bullied in the harem for many years. As a result, she kept looking at the servant girl''s expression and realized that even though maid had a face full of panic, the depths of his eyes were twinkling. He knew that the maid must know something, or it could be her doing it.


    Following that, his face became even more gloomy: "Are you going to say it or not, did you exchange the foetal antidote''s things? "If you don''t behave and tell me, I will immediately serve you with a heavy punishment. Let''s see how long you can hold out for."


    Xiao Wen''s body trembled as he fearfully looked at Mrs. Han and said, "Servant doesn''t have it, Servant doesn''t have it ¡­" His expression and his innocence.


    old mother, who had been kneeling at the side, became angry when she heard that Yue Yang would deny it. If she did not admit to this, then it would be him who would be implicating himself. She immediately became angry and started fighting while grabbing Xiao Wen: "You slut, you don''t do good things and only do these despicable things, you black heart, just watch how I beat you to death today."


    Xiao Wen was beaten to tears, and he began to shout out loud! ¡­ ¡­ ) When Mrs. Han saw that the two of them did not have any manners, he shouted, "What are you doing, what are you two doing? Impudent!"


    His roar made old mother stop, his face darkened as he interrogated Xiao Wen: "Since you are not being honest, then I do not have the time to bullshit with you, come."


    Xiao Wen trembled, and in the end, compromised. He kneeled and glared at the unconscious Xi Wu Er, his face filled with clenched teeth, as though he wanted to bite the other party to death.


    "Because the young Madame has once insulted Servant. Servant was angered to the point of doing foolish things, begging you to spare my life, Servant knows that I was wrong, in the future, this Servant will not dare to do it again, I will not dare to do it again ¡­"


    Although Xiao Wen was begging for forgiveness, Mrs. Han was still able to see that she did not have any fear. She was stunned, could it be that this servant still had someone to rely on? She actually had no fear of murdering her son? How much backing did he have!?


    Now that the truth had been revealed, Qing Yue lost control of herself and said, "You''re talking nonsense! Xiao Wen, you and I have no feud or grievances, why would you frame me? " She knew now that she had slipped into a trap. Xiao Wen flinched and looked at Qing Yue''s face in horror.


    Seeing that Qing Yue seemed to have lost control, she immediately slapped the table and said: "Shut up!"


    Qing Yue''s brain worked quickly, her heart was filled with greed, she thought that it was not appropriate to deny it! She looked at Xiao Wen, and then at the doctor ¡­ Finally she looked at the doctor. Women sometimes had accurate instincts. If he wanted her to escape, this doctor was probably the best choice.


    She said to the doctor, "Are you sure that''s what you want? Are you sure? " The doctor''s gaze flickered. "That''s right, that was indeed the case. There''s no mistake."


    Qing Yue naturally noticed Qing Yue''s actions, and from the looks of it, there was a problem with the doctor, so he said: "Doctor, you have to look carefully, is she in the center ring?" The doctor was panicking. Had she discovered something? But then he thought, so what if she discovered something? She could no longer extricate herself from this situation, so she said with certainty, "I can confirm that it was her wish."


    This person had to be found out so that no one would be caught unawares. Thinking till here, Mrs. Han slowly sat down and stared at Xiao Wen with ridicule: "You are just a maid, how dare you? You know how many masters our Han Family has set their eyes on this child, and you actually have the guts to plot and kill us? "You are tired of living, or at whose direction you were ordered to do so."


    Thinking till here, Mrs. Han slowly sat down and stared at Xiao Wen with ridicule: "You are just a maid, how dare you? You know how many masters our Han Family has set their eyes on this child, and you actually have the guts to plot and kill us? "You are tired of living, or at whose direction you were ordered to do so."


    At least in the eyes of the Mrs. Han, it was as if some secret had been discovered. She was extremely nervous, and her hands were completely flustered and panicked, "The Old Madame didn''t, and didn''t want the Servant to do such a thing, you definitely don''t want this to have anything to do with Aunt Qing Yue, it was changed by the Servant, it doesn''t seem to have anything to do with Aunt Qing Yue at all ¡­"


    Xiao Wen called out Aunt Qing Yue, causing Qing Yue''s expression to change. He immediately knelt down and said, "Old Madame, Servant did not come here to do such a thing!"


    He turned his head and said angrily at Xiao Wen: "Who caused you to wrongly accuse me?" Qing Yue was a girl served by Mrs. Han. She was still not married even at the age of twenty-eight, and when the Old Madame told her to marry someone, she refused to budge on it even if she had to die.


    At this time, Xiao Wen cried, "Old Madame, Aunt Qing Yue ¡­ Servant... Servant... "


    From the looks of it, Xiao Wen was Qing Yue''s man. In his heart, Qing Yue was angry to the point that the blood in her chest was boiling. Pointing at Xiao Wen, he ruthlessly cursed: "You, what nonsense are you spouting!"


    As if he had been frightened by Qing Yue''s aura, Xiao Wen said to Mrs. Han, "Mrs. Han, it was all done by Servant, Servant alone will bear the responsibility."


    Qing Yue was so angry that her face turned white, she said angrily: "Little bitch, what nonsense are you spouting, you will die a horrible death."


    Mrs. Han shouted, "Enough, I naturally have my own judgement on what exactly is going on. Xiao Wen, speak whatever you have to say. Could it be that he believed Xiao Wen''s words? Qing Yue was so scared that she did not know what to do. She stared at Xiao Wen, wanting to find a place to explain herself.


    Xiao Wen fearfully and timidly glanced at Mrs. Han, who said in a deep voice, "Go ahead and tell me the truth. I won''t let you die." Perhaps because of these words, Xiao Wen was no longer afraid, and his expression had become much more normal, ashe said: "The thing is, Aunt Qing Yue sought Servant out, and told him to find a chance to put his heart into Young Madame''s foetal antidote. After that, there must be benefits for Servant as well. Aunt Qing Yue said she would give Servant thirty silver afterwards. Seeing that Servant didn''t agree, she threatened him and said that Servant had stolen her money and had Servant beaten his to death ¡­ Servant had no choice but to obey. "


    "Old Madame, Servant has old mother to support. If not for Aunt Qing Yue, Servant would never do such a heartless thing, begging old Madame to spare my life ¡­" Xiao Wen kowtowed, it could be seen that he had used a lot of strength.


    He heard from the Mrs. Han: "No matter who it is, I won''t let off a single one of you who tried to poison my grandson." Mrs. Han''s words made Qing Yue unable to see any more hope.

    I want her to torture to death


    The Mrs. Han believed in Qing Yue, she didn''t believe that he would kill the child, but there was no reason for Xiao Wen to do so! No matter what, as long as it did not endanger his own grandson, he would not let them go, he would rather kill them by mistake than let them go.


    "Men, tie them up for me," Mrs. Han planned to kill the chicken and the monkey, cutting off their thoughts to prevent them from having such a bad thing happen again.


    "Old Madame, Servant was wrongly accused." Without saying anything, Qing Yue dropped to her knees and crawled over: "Old Madame really hasn''t hurt little Young Master at all. If she dares to lie, I really will die a horrible death.


    Mrs. Han stared at her. Something flashed in her eyes and she stopped looking at him. The old granny who was by his side quickly stepped forward and pulled Qing Yue away.


    "Old ¡­" The old grannies took out their handkerchiefs and stuffed them in her mouth. In the end, they were still polite and did not dare to offend her. Don''t underestimate her normally amiable attitude.


    "Old Madame, please spare Servant. I won''t dare to do it again." Xiao Wen kowtowed, just as the wives were about to pull him down, they were stopped by the Mrs. Han. Xiao Wen was overjoyed that things had turned out well, but she immediately saw the Mrs. Han sitting down with a cup of tea emotionlessly, "If you want me to spare you, it''s not impossible, so tell me who ordered you to kill my grandson."


    "Old Madame and Servant ¡­"


    "Don''t be in such a hurry to answer me. Think about it, history lies in your mind. Think about the old mother who is bedridden and still hoping to see you die from old age." Mrs. Han slowly put down the teacup and waited quietly.


    The doctor standing at the side did not know whether to stand or not. Seeing the opportunity, he stepped forward and said: "Mrs. Han, there is nothing else I can do here, so I will take my leave."


    Only then did Mrs. Han realize that the doctors had not sent her yet. She was so anxious and confused that she immediately ordered people to send the doctors off. This was a private matter that was shamed in the household. The old Madame deliberately ordered her servants not to spread it, not wanting others to see it as a joke.


    "Have you decided?" Mrs. Han raised his eyebrows and asked patiently., who was serving beside him, pouted: "Old Madame is not giving her orders yet, it seems like she needs to use some powerful technique. Give it to this old servant to guarantee that she will speak honestly."


    With a groan, Xi Wu Er struggled to get up from the bed: "As long as you tell me who the culprit is, I will beg mother to spare your life and offer you 100 taels of silver to treat your mother''s illness."


    The condition that Xi Wu Er offered was even more attractive than Mrs. Han''s. Xiao Wen had no choice but to admit that his heart was moved and slightly swayed. Biting his lip, he said, "Young Madame, I hope you will keep your word." She did not believe the words of the Mrs. Han.


    "So many people in this room listen, they can all bear witness."


    "I''m not sure about the mastermind behind the plot, all I know is that his surname is Zhong. He gave Servant 50 silver coins and told Servant to do as she said, otherwise, he would find someone to beat the mother of Servant to death." Xiao Wen kowtowed and said: "That woman said that Young Madame owes her this."


    His surname was Zhong? Xi Wu Er had already guessed who it was, but he did not understand that Zhong Tang Jun had nothing to do with him, or that the Zhong Family''s fate was related to him, or that the person looking for revenge was not him!


    Presumably it was because she was implicated by someone, she rolled her eyes and asked Xiao Wen: "Then let me ask you again, does this matter have anything to do with Xi Wan Rong?"


    Xi Wu Er''s intention was that Mrs. Han was not an idiot, she also did not like Xi Wan Rong completely because of her son being bewitched by her. Not to mention that now, when they mentioned their son, many people in the Han Family said that there was a crazy woman staying in their house, and that crazy woman was the former number one beauty. This early on message was nothing, I don''t know who spread it, but said that Han Chang Sheng was the one who made Xi Wan Rong into a madman.


    Han Chang Sheng was the flesh of Mrs. Han''s heart, and because of a woman, she was criticized by others, so how could she not hate Xi Wan Rong? Previously, he felt that Xi Wan Rong was the love of his son, so he had let her live. Now he could take the opportunity to get rid of her.


    "Needless to say, it definitely has something to do with her." Mrs. Han decided.


    Xi Wu Er pursed his lips, this meant that the Mrs. Han was standing next to him. Since Xi Wu Er said that he would plead for Xiao Wen on this matter, the Mrs. Han would naturally not give her face. She gave him silver and chased him out of the Han Residence.


    "Young master''s foresight is truly divine, he is indeed here." There was a sense of respect hidden within his words.


    "Heh, the way he acted as if he didn''t care about anything at all made me feel extremely disgusted. From the very first moment I saw him, I couldn''t believe that his mouth was full of lies." His voice was filled with anger and the aftertaste of grinding teeth.


    "That''s right, that''s ¡­"


    The girl''s voice suddenly rang out beside her ears. It was so cold that it made people shiver, and it immediately made her sink into her memories: Mrs. Zhong, carriage, cliff...


    "Ahh!" A frightened person sat down, quickly opening his eyes and looking around himself in confusion. Not far away from him sat a luxurious looking man. He was around twenty years old, handsome, but filled with hostility. There was a servant standing respectfully beside him, and he didn''t seem to notice it in the crowd. Only his eyes made people feel uncomfortable, as if they were being watched by a snake.


    "You''re awake?" This voice was the one that had just sounded by his side ¡­ A seductive voice, a voice that went straight to the bone, soft and silky smooth. He then took a deep breath.


    What a seductive woman!


    She couldn''t tolerate this woman in front of her. She could only feel a wave of alluring charm radiating out from her. Everyone was in a hundred different shapes. Someone carved nobility into one''s bone marrow. That person must have inherited the noble blood of their ancestors in order to have the body and bones. Someone carved the playboy hooligan into the picture so vividly that no matter how good he was at disguising himself, one could tell just by his words and actions. As for this woman, she had a frown and a smile on her face. Even though she was expressionless and cold as she traveled thousands of miles away, she still had an impulse to make people submit under her skirt. Even if it was a woman, she wouldn''t be able to withstand it.


    "I... Where am I... Who, who are you? " Xi Wan Feng licked her dry lips.


    "You''ll know who we are when the time comes." The tyrannical Young Master replied with a question, "Yan Niang... Do you have any talent? "


    "The young master made an unexpected move this time. I didn''t expect that he would actually pick up a treasure!" Yan Niang smiled faintly, as if he was trying to seduce her.


    The young master''s eyes lit up, and he clicked his tongue as he stared at Xi Wan Feng. I really didn''t see anything. Someone who could make Yan Niang think that she was a treasure must have something special about her, or that she was extraordinary. He just saved her by passing by unintentionally and even she himself was curious as to why she would save him.


    "Then we will leave the rest to Yan Niang." Young Master''s tone was slightly more polite, then he ordered the attendant, "Prepare yourself. We will depart in three days." The spies had already been set up and the setup had already begun. They were all waiting to reap the rewards.


    Xi Wan Feng was at a loss: "Where are we going?"


    "Wind Nation!" The girl called Yan Niang said indifferently.


    "Ah ¡ª I won''t go!" Xi Wan Feng refused. She couldn''t go to Wind Nation, at least not now. Not to mention that the baleful aura before her of a young master, charming woman, and murderous aura of a servant gave her a bad premonition. Her intuition told her that if she followed them ¡­


    The young master was surprised, and the hostility in his body became even stronger. The bloodthirsty killing intent in his eyes was like a dagger that pierced her throat, making her unable to breathe.


    "Why?"


    Xi Wan Feng bit her lips and said, "I still want to take revenge ¡­" If Xi Jiu Er did not die, and she did not leave, then the three people in front of her were not ordinary people. Perhaps, with their help, Xi Jiu Er would definitely not be able to escape this calamity.


    "As long as you can kill my enemy, I will definitely serve you as a dog or a horse."


    "Hur Hur Hur, there''s a swindler!" The young master chuckled. His voice was extremely unpleasant to hear, like that of a duck, causing one''s entire body to feel uncomfortable. The pair of eyes were staring at Xi Wan Feng, causing her to be unable to hide anywhere, as if he could see through her little trick and laugh at her, but at the same time, it also seemed like she was threatening her.


    "Good!" "If you go back on your word, I will let you know what happens when you lie to me!" The Young Master asked, "Tell me, who is your enemy? What do you want us to do? "


    Joy that blotted out the sky and blotted out the sky swept over, and he could not help but tremble: "She is called Xi Jiu Er, I will torture her to death ¡­" The viciousness and hatred in his eyes was something that the Young Master liked.


    "Hahahahahaha ¡­" "I like it ¡­" The young master laughed.

    In the Wei Guogong''s study, the atmosphere was silent.


    A ray of afternoon sunlight pierced through the window and onto the jade seal on the table. The rare top-grade item from a hundred years ago and Tian Yu were shined in the sunlight. The jade was as transparent as paper and as thin as a cicada''s wing.


    The dragon carving on the Jade Seal was vivid and lifelike, as if it was about to open its eyes and soar into the sky in the next moment.


    This was the Imperial Jade Seal that had been used by the Emperor. It had been passed down for over three generations, and over a hundred years, it had been stolen from the previous Emperor. Now that he had reappeared in Wei Guogong''s residence, no, it should be the Xi Mansion who had already searched through the entire household.


    It was something that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s trusted aides had collected and presented to him. If Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge suspected, the first person he suspected would be him! The young zodiac was already on the road to becoming the previous emperor, his goal was to steal the country''s throne, and once the zodiac sent a court official, he would naturally not be used. And he was not allowed to take even half a step out of the capital ¡­


    He was only Xi Jiu Er''s only granddaughter, without a man''s bloodline to inherit her, what use would he have if he wanted this Imperial Jade Seal? This was what Elder Zhang had his doubts about, and probably was one of the reasons why Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not believe that the Imperial Jade Seal was on his hands.


    Not to mention that the Wei Guogong was already over ten years old. Although her spirit was excellent, she reckoned that living for a hundred years shouldn''t be a problem. Even if he wanted to steal the Imperial Jade Seal, it would not necessarily be a success. After all these years, whether his old tribe would die or disarm and return to the land, how many people would be willing to submit to him? How many? Furthermore, even if the Wei Guogong was still powerful, she was after all a different surname, not some Xuan Yuan. If she fell into the hands of the Wei Guogong, it would truly be a different story.


    "Master... You, what are you doing? " Elder Zhang''s little heart was beating wildly. He immediately went over and shouted, "Ouch! Oops! Oops! My Master, what are you doing with this thing?! Can we stop tormenting ourselves when we''re old?"


    "What do you know?" Wei Guogong glanced at Old Zhang.


    Old Zhang''s face looked as if the sky was about to collapse. No, it was as if he had just died. Even though Old Zhang''s memorial tablet was still in his room.


    "This old servant doesn''t understand, but this old servant has eyes. When this old servant sees ¡­"


    "See what?"


    "Master is playing with his life ¡­" Elder Zhang looked sullen. His old face, which was like the bark of a tree, was wrinkled like a chrysanthemum. He looked quite happy.


    "I left this Imperial Jade Seal with Jiu Er to protect herself with." It was as if she heard a sigh, helpless, helpless, nostalgic ¡­ All sorts of things.


    "Princess?" Old Zhang wondered, what was the purpose of the Imperial Jade Seal leaving it with the Miss? Could it be that he wanted the Miss to become a female emperor? Hmm, it''s not like there haven''t been female emperors in history. Aiya ¡­ As a person, his or her thoughts would become erratic. Old Zhang hurriedly tidied up his emotions and muttered, "I say, Master, you should leave the princess some gold and silver jewelry. Isn''t the mansion better? This thing is life threatening. If you truly love the princess, then don''t leave such a dangerous thing by her side. It''s best for you to think of a way to return it. "


    "Return it? You think it''s that easy? " Wei Guogong rolled her eyes and looked at Old Zhang as if she was looking at an idiot.


    "Then Master, why don''t you leave it for the princess to protect herself? "I''m afraid it''s just a talisman of death ¡­" Old Zhang told Wei Guogong in a very honest manner that he and Wei Guogong had a deep relationship as a master and a servant, as though they were brothers.


    "Old Zhang ¡­" There are a lot of things you don''t know, and I can''t tell you ¡­ If Jiu Er is safe and sound, then with her intelligence, there will be a way to give this thing to the imperial family. If Jiu Er is safe and sound, this thing can save her life! " Wei Guogong''s expression was solemn, as though something big was going to happen. Old Zhang was feeling uneasy.


    "Master, this old servant doesn''t understand ¡­" Old Zhang truly doted on Xi Jiu Er from the bottom of her heart, and hoped that Xi Jiu Er would be able to live a carefree life.


    "Do you think I''m willing to marry Xi Er to a idiot like Xi Hong Sheng? "Pfft, he''s worthy?" The gentle gaze fell upon his aged eyes, as if she was reminiscing, "Old Zhang, there are no less than five people who know this secret ¡­ Back then, when Xi''er married Xi Hong Sheng, she was already pregnant. "


    "Miss, she ¡­" The Miss that Elder Zhang had called Wei Xi Er for so many years could not help but be shocked. Wei Xi Er was one of the most famous Miss in the capital. Back then, there were many people wooing her. However, thinking about how powerful the Wei Guogong was, he decided to give up on that idea.


    Wei Xi Er had received a very traditional education. An unmarried child actually happened to her. No one would believe it, let alone Old Zhang, who understood her true nature.


    How could Old Zhang not be shocked, the well-behaved and sensible Miss ¡­ He must have been bewitched by a man to do such a thing. It must have been.


    "I threatened Xi''er with my relationship severed to have her tell me who Jiu Er''s father is. She would rather not have this father to tell me her identity than to reveal even a single word of her name. I have to investigate this matter thoroughly for a few months, and torture the servant girl beside her to no avail, as the servant girl doesn''t know anything. "


    It was a pity that their relationship had already been blocked by an ice wall due to this matter. It was only after Wei Xi Er had chosen Xi Hong Sheng out of the anger she had in her heart did their relationship improve. Unfortunately ¡ª It had finally become a tragedy.


    He was always resentful towards his daughter''s memorial tablets. If ¡­ If only he had given up his dignity, why would the darling he cared for would she marry Xi Hong Sheng?


    "This is Jiu Er''s father''s only clue." From the secret compartment in the study, he took out a jade pendant. Old Zhang had sharp eyes too, what treasure hadn''t he seen before? With a single glance, he could tell that the exquisite jade did not seem to have any exquisite carving skills. However, this was the first time he saw that jade. It was truly rare! He was shocked. Could it be that the owner of this jade was not ordinary?


    "Master, this ¡­ "Does Yu have any clues..."


    Wei Guogong''s rough fingers rubbed against his jade body, his eyebrows twisted into a blur, "This is a pure unpolished jade, and I''ve asked many experts, they say that this is the first time I''ve seen this kind of jade in my life. Then I met a Westerner by chance... "He said that this kind of jade is very rare. I heard that it''s buried in ice and snow for tens of thousands of feet ¡­" As she spoke, Yu let out a faint cold breath under the sunlight.


    Old Zhang, look, could it be cold jade? Beneath the freezing snow, the jade was extremely cold! Wei Guogong guessed what Old Zhang was thinking and said: "Do you think this is a cold jade? "This is a piece of warm jade ¡­"


    "AHH!" "It''s that magical?" Elder Zhang said with his mouth wide open in shock. The origin of this jade was strange and unusual. Moreover, the jade itself was strange. It was as if the owner of this jade was someone who could not be fathomed.


    "This old servant is stupid, what does this have to do with the Imperial Jade Seal?" Old Zhang felt that the two could not be linked together, and the monk was at a loss.


    "I''m afraid that Jiu Er''s identity is not simple. If she were to encounter danger, using the Imperial Jade Seal as her name, I reckon that he would be able to save her life. When Jiu Er was still a child, I had already seen the round and lonely Lamp Burning Great Master. There''s still half a month before the round and round Master Lamp Burning Heaven can see her lifespan. When I saw that Jiu Er''s life had already been exposed, I knew that once I left the temple, she would pass away. "


    Even the zodiac didn''t dare to act presumptuously in front of him, yet the Wei Guogong is actually his good friend. Do you think that the zodiac can take on the Wei Guogong in his heart?


    "Master Lamp Ignition only said that Jiu Er was born with a heavenly destiny, causing her to change her destiny ¡­ In the future, happiness and misfortune will be at the mercy of her thoughts. " Wei Guogong rubbed between her brows, each and every one of them were troublesome people!


    Old Zhang kept quiet. It was not necessarily a good thing for a woman to undergo hardships. He suddenly thought about how Xi Jiu Er''s'' Holy Water ''had unexpectedly revived the Master. Every time he thought about it, he felt a chill run down his spine. Could it be that Princess was being looked after by the heavens ¡­?


    After exiting the study, Wei Guogong stood under a large tree that the five of them could hug. Her expression fluctuated between bright and dark. After a while, Old Zhang came. At the same time, he brought an extremely interesting disappearing.


    After Xi Hong Sheng and the First Lady executed, a violent storm suddenly appeared in the sky! This rain was quite interesting. The sky within six kilometers of the execution grounds was raining, and outside of it, the sun was shining.


    "Right now, many people say that Xi Family died with grievances ¡­ It was also a warning to the Princess Xian that her parents were the ones who stabbed him in the head. " Old Zhang said in amusement.

 C201

    After returning to the Duke''s Palace, Xi Jiu Er went to find the Wei Guogong absent-mindedly, but was told that he was engaged to Xiao Feng. The news shocked her so much that she couldn''t hold himself back any longer, and immediately went to the study room.


    The two people who were discussing on the desk turned their heads over at the same time and faced Xi Jiu Er, whose face was filled with anger. The two of them only paused for a moment, and then started to discuss the marriage together, when Xiao Feng said: "Xiao Feng has no parents to help him with, and is also a person of the past. Although my identity is crude, I do not wish to make the Princess Laifu suffer. "


    "Hehe ¡­" Don''t even mention putting on an act, Jiu Er is my darling. Since you married her, you should treat her well. I do not seek to be rich or rich, I just need to live in peace. " Wei Guogong stroked his beard and laughed: "Marriage is a simple affair, but the process cannot be lacking."


    "Yes, we will listen to whatever Prince Fu says." Xiao Feng was respectful, she was a man of exceptional beauty and elegance, so of course she would be liked by others if she showed a cultured and refined attitude. Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and interrupted: "You should at least ask me for my opinion on this matter."


    "Since ancient times, it has always been the words of parents and matchmakers. Besides, you agreed to let me be the judge, did you forget? Hmph, I''ve already accepted the betrothal gift. The reason why Wei Guogong had such a businesslike face was because she wanted to tell Xi Jiu Er that there was no way to discuss this matter.


    Xi Jiu Er gasped. When did she agree? Liu Shui came over and whispered a reminder, "That morning..."


    Uh, that''s what I said. Realizing the truth, Xi Jiu Er found a chair to sit on. Wei Guogong raised her eyebrows, which meant that she was trying to figure out what the hell she was doing here.


    "I''ll listen." Xi Jiu Er smiled innocently, "This has to do with my marriage, of course I have the right to listen and express my opinion."


    "You, you, impudence, go back!" When the Wei Guogong heard Xi Jiu Er''s words, he immediately scolded him. Her daughter was a virtuous and virtuous woman, a woman that was not to be trifled with. Yet, his granddaughter was acting like a lady from a noble family. She did a pretty good job, or at least acted quite well. However, when there was no one around, they would always be as cold as ice. Other than being filled with thoughts, they would speak without restraint.


    My dear, this Xiao Feng is her future husband. How could he not put him in her eyes, and how could he put his face in front of an outsider? He was looking forward to taking care of this son-in-law in the future ¡­ In short, she did not put herself in the eyes of outsiders! But Qi!


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was also filled with anger, why didn''t she negotiate with her and accept the betrothal gift? Since she was getting married, why didn''t he ask for her opinion?


    "If you don''t go back, I''ll sit here." The evil fire in Xi Jiu Er''s heart gushed out, and she posed in a very indecent manner: "Grandfather, didn''t you say we should follow the instructions? Just carry me over to his house. "


    "What nonsense is this?" Wei Guogong was angry, she was truly angry. Isn''t it just a concubine? How could she lower himself so much? Did she not care about his reputation?


    How could Xi Jiu Er not see that Wei Guogong was truly angry? She pursed her lips and looked at Xiao Feng, then said indifferently: "If there''s anything we can discuss later, after talking for so long, I think Young Noble Feng is also thirsty, Liu Shui, bring Young Noble Feng out for some tea and snacks before coming back to discuss life''s important matters." He deliberately emphasized the words'' great affairs of life ''.


    How could Feng Qing Cheng not hear her voice? Elegant got up: "The princess understands me. She knows that I''m thirsty." After giving Xi Jiu Er a meaningful glance, Xi Jiu Er replied him with a smile that was not a smile.


    "Of course, look at how virtuous and virtuous Jiu Er is. If I marry you in the future, I would definitely be able to serve you well." Wei Guogong immediately interrupted, these words really stunned Xi Jiu Er and Feng Qing Cheng. One did not believe that the other could do it, and one did not believe that she could do it.


    When Feng Qing Cheng left, it was more accurate to say that once the study room closed, Wei Guogong''s face ''swished'' until it was longer than a donkey''s face. Her face was even darker than the bottom of a pot of ash, and her eyes were a hundred times sharper than the blade. Other than Xi Jiu Er, there was still Xi Jiu Er in the study ¡­ No one was scared.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the table, seeing how the Wei Guogong was planning to make him agree with her thoughts, thus she completely ignored the existence of the Wei Guogong.


    "Cough ¡ª ¡ª" Wei Guogong restrained her breathing and coughed awkwardly. "Jiu Er, just leave this matter to Grandfather. Grandfather will definitely marry you off with Ten Li Red Dress." make up for the debt he owed Wei Xi Er and Xi Jiu Er.


    "Grandfather, what ''Ten Li red makeup'' is just a form. If a husband and wife are happy with it, then it would be a joke. If he truly dotes on me, then even if I am alone, wearing a torn set of coarse clothes and married to him, I would still be like a jewel to him. This is what a true good husband is like. " Xi Jiu Er shook her head: "The husband that I want to marry is someone who cares and loves me wholeheartedly. He doesn''t want to get close to me because of my identity, and he doesn''t want to get close to me because of my beauty ¡­"


    "Grandfather, you said that Xiao Feng is a good person, and that Jiu Er wants to try to get along with him. However, if that person was not Jiu Er''s good person, Jiu Er would not force herself to just sit and watch as it entered the room with the married woman from two to three company. After that, I will fight to the death with the concubinage s endlessly, and this kind of life is not what Jiu Er wants. "


    Wei Guogong frowned: "Jiu Er, it''s normal for a man to have three wives, four concubines. "If I don''t marry you, I''ll bear the burden of being jealous of you ¡­"


    "Grandfather!" Xi Jiu Er''s voice slightly rose to interrupt the words that Wei Guogong was about to say, "What are you doing passing your days by closing the doors to others? Even if you were poor, there might not be people who would help you. If you were to live a good life, it would be the others who would come looking for you. "We''re all laughing at the poverty of this world ¡­"


    The Wei Guogong was speechless. He was a martial general, and the deepest experience was that martial generals were never seen highly by scholars, and from time to time, she would ridicule them as'' martial artists'' or ''boorish men''. How could any martial artist write those poverty-stricken poems and draw those lousy paintings if they didn''t? Humph, as long as the country is in trouble, push them out right now, and boast that they can raise their troops for a thousand days! Pui!


    "Grandfather, is the happiness of your granddaughter more important, or is your reputation more important?"


    Isn''t this nonsense, of course it''s Jiu Er''s happiness that''s the most important thing, reputation usually tire a person to death, living like neither a human nor a ghost, and it''s only to be used when necessary.


    "Since Grandfather thinks that Jiu Er''s happiness is the most important thing, then let''s simply carry me over."


    "¡­"


    Feng Qing Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance, as though he was in a trance, a pigeon was writing a letter in his hand, a few of them revealing an even more rough and muddy road. It was unknown when Xi Jiu Er would stand in front of him.


    "Cough..." Xi Jiu Er coughed lightly. "All of you can leave now. I have something to discuss with Young Master Feng."


    The servants in the room quietly retreated.


    Feng Qing Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, waiting quietly. Xi Jiu Er frowned and asked: "Why did you marry me?" This had always been a question that puzzled her. She and Feng Qing Cheng could be counted on one hand, but a woman''s intuition, in addition to her usual fighting experience in the backyard, told herself that this man''s marriage wasn''t because he had feelings for her.


    "If you give me your first place, you should be one of mine." Feng Qing Cheng looked Xi Jiu Er straight in the eyes: "So you''re saying you''re one of my men, and I won''t allow my man to marry anyone else."


    He had always been a gentle and refined man. When he said these words, he was exceptionally domineering and persistent, as if he was making an oath to her: Xi Jiu Er, you are mine.


    Xi Jiu Er''s cheeks burned slightly, and she pursed her slightly dry lips to make herself look as natural as possible: "Is it because of this reason? You don''t like me? I don''t like you either. We might not have a good ending together. "


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed lightly, the smile in his eyes was extremely warm: "Why do you think I do not like you?"


    The warmth in her eyes was like sweet honey that stuck to her throat. This was the first time Xi Jiu Er had this kind of feeling, it was very strange, it brought along a sour, sweet, and numb feeling that made her heart beat hard.


    "What do you like about me?" The moment Xi Jiu Er opened his mouth, he felt like he was a fool, he was so embarrassed that he didn''t know what to say. The moment Feng Qing Cheng was about to speak, she immediately interrupted him and said, "You don''t have to say it, I don''t want to know either." Don''t know why that answer doesn''t want to hear good or bad words... No, it was more accurate to say that he didn''t dare to listen. At this moment ¡ª she was afraid, she didn''t know what she was afraid of.


    Seeing her awkward look, Feng Qing Cheng pretended not to know and smiled without saying a word.


    "I have a request. If it''s not appropriate for us to be together after marriage, or if I don''t feel anything for you, I hope you can divorce me." Xi Jiu Er regained her normal appearance after a few breaths.


    "I cannot agree to your request because... It''s not like we''re going to get married tomorrow. It''s not suitable for us to be together, so I''ll divorce you, right? " Feng Qing Cheng maintained her relaxed smile, with more darkness in her eyes, as if she was angry? Xi Jiu Er felt that it was normal to be angry, anyone who heard it would be angry.


    "One year... "How to do it every year..." Xi Jiu Er clenched her teeth, half a year was too short, just one year had passed.


    "One year?" Feng Qing Cheng slightly raised his brows, and laughed: "Wow!"


    Did her eyes go blurry ¡­? Was he sneering just now? What, what was he laughing at?

    The night was abnormally quiet. The white robed man in the courtyard had an extraordinary figure. The moonlight shrouded his tall body in a layer of white mist, making him look like a fairy that had fallen into the mortal world.


    With a light sound, a cloaked figure walked out from the shadows of the trees. Her figure was slender and tall, revealing a straight nose and a pair of embroidered shoes on her feet. Qianqian extended her hand and put down her cloak, revealing a beautiful young girl''s face.


    If Xi Jiu Er saw her, she would be extremely shocked, the lady was none other than Chu Ge, the direct descendant of the Chu Family''s Miss.


    "Young master ¡­" Chu Ge bit her lips as if she had made a great decision, "Are you really going to marry Xi Jiu Er?"


    She bit her lips as she stared at Feng Qing Cheng''s back figure. Why did she marry Xi Jiu Er? Why!


    Chu Ge did not wait for the answer she wanted and she already knew that Feng Qing Cheng was determined to marry Xi Jiu Er. Chu Ge bit her lips and forced a smile. Do you want me to ¡­ "


    Feng Qing Cheng suddenly turned and stared at Chu Ge, causing him to be shocked and forced to take a step back, barely maintaining his smile.


    In the moonlight, her gorgeous face was spotlessly white, like an inviolable glimmer. Staring at that flawless face, Chu Ge''s heart felt like it was being burned by a scorching fire.


    This face... This face... Chu Ge took a deep breath. Her life had belonged to Feng Qing Cheng during the huge fire that day, and she owed him this life''s worth.


    "This is not something you should ask." Feng Qing Cheng couldn''t help but touch his own face. It was as cold as frost and although it was as smooth as cream, it wasn''t warm at all.


    Chu Ge bit her lips to barely maintain her dignified smile, but it had already returned to normal, and smiled: "Yes." Only her fingernails were in the palm of her hand.


    "It was too risky of you to come today." It was still the same calm and emotionless expression, unchanging for all eternity. The water in the well of ancient times did not ripple in the slightest. Her tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction and reprimand. Chu Ge was overjoyed, and her charming face became even more respectful: "Young Noble, Yun Qing Ran and Shi Chen Wen have already been betrothed, the marriage date is set to start next spring."


    Feng Qing Cheng did not say anything. To him, this was not really anything surprising, but glanced at Chu Ge. Chu Ge knew that this was news that made her say it with even more value.


    Third Prince? The third son of the Lord of Wind Nation! Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently: "It has already been more than two years since I''ve visited Sun Cangming. It isn''t surprising that he was able to find me, who else is by his side?"


    "It''s an enchanting woman ¡­" I think it''s Yan Niang. " Chu Ge recalled that day when she accidentally saw the three people that walked out of the inn. Although they were all dressed up, she still saw through them.


    Yan Niang? Heh, this Yan Niang''s abilities are definitely not ordinary. Almost every single concubinage official of the Wind Nation had come up with their own conditions, and even quite a few of the harem officials had handed it over to him. She was a terrifying woman who had learned a terrifying technique. She had no idea where she had taken in her master, nor did she know how Ol ''Three had kept her in the books.


    "How is everything I told you to do?" The moonlight sprinkled the gauze with extreme gentleness. Occasionally, the breeze would caress her face, making her seem like a pair of soft and boneless hands, causing one to be enthralled.


    "Young master..." It''s already been done, I estimate that the Wei Guogong will personally go out to battle soon, and then ¡­ " A generation of warriors would die in battle, becoming a beautiful story passed down throughout the ages. It was also the last honor it would bring to the Wei Guogong.


    Chu Ge was suddenly enlightened. If Feng Qing Cheng really liked Xi Jiu Er, why would he take the step like Wei Guogong? Under the heavens, she had already decided who was more important and who was less important. Yet, she was completely bewitched by the jealousy of women. She had followed her young master for so many years, but she could already see that there was a ravine in his heart.


    "Chu Ge, tell me ¡­ If I really do that, would Jiu Er resent me if she knew? " After a long while, Feng Qing Cheng finally opened her mouth with great difficulty. With Xi Jiu Er''s intelligence, she would one day find out the truth. Wei Guogong was her only family ¡­ Her vengeful nature would not only sever all ties with him, but he would also do everything in his power to kill him. Thinking of this, Feng Qing Cheng''s chest started to feel extremely uncomfortable, as if something was causing his chest to fill up, and her breathing became ragged.


    Chu Ge''s eyes flashed with shock, her heart suddenly sank: Young Master thinks so highly of Xi Jiu Er, are you really moved? No, no... But why would Young Master care about a woman''s thoughts?


    "Young master, have you forgotten your dreams and ambitions? Are you still not clear about how Xi Jiu Er is compared to the rest of the world? Once she obtained the Wind Nation and became the king, what would a mere woman amount to? We have already reached the final stage of this game of chess. We can''t just let go of it! " Chu Ge said anxiously.


    "Enough, I don''t need you to teach me what to do." Feng Qing Cheng bellowed, as if she was a cat whose tail had been stepped on.


    "Please reconsider, Young Master." Chu Ge trembled, and even though she was afraid, she dared to say it out loud.


    Feng Qing Cheng had already calmed down after a few breaths had passed. He only looked at Chu Ge without speaking, and blended in with the moonlight with a tranquil expression.


    Chu Ge''s heart was filled with joy. She was just about to open her mouth and freeze on the face with a smile, saying, "You go down first, I''ll think about this matter for a few days." It was like a sudden clap of thunder that had blown her head off.


    "Alright, you can go back now." Feng Qing Cheng bellowed, already feeling displeased.


    Chu Ge took a deep breath and said calmly, "Yes." She turned around and left. This was Feng Qing Cheng''s new case, two in and two out of the house matched his identity as a doctor.


    Chu Ge hated the house to the core. Her attitude was no different from a knife stabbing into her heart. Before Chu Ge left, he saw a horse carriage stopped at the Feng Residence''s entrance. It was the carriage of the Prince Xian.


    After saying Prince Xian, Chu Ge felt extremely disgusted, so she fiercely threw down the curtain and shouted: "Return to the house." Seemingly gnashing her teeth, he smashed towards the car with a bang. Xi Jiu Er and Feng Qing Cheng kept thinking of each other.


    "Xi Jiu Er... "I definitely won''t let you become Young Master''s stumbling block ¡­" Fortunately, the Young Master doesn''t have a deep affection for you, if you die you will at most be grieving for a while.


    "Even if the young master hates me, hates me, hate me, I''m willing to have no regrets." Closing his eyes, he leaned against the side with a face full of calculation.


    Prince Xian arrogantly barged into the house Feng Qing Cheng had bought. He stood in front of Feng Qing Cheng and carefully sized him up, his eyes like an eagle''s: "I''ve seen you before, you''re Sun Kong Ming''s disciple."


    "Yes, Your Highness." Feng Qing Cheng was neither humble nor arrogant, he was all smiles.


    The two of them were both peerless men. One of them was dressed in a charming red robe, exuding a beauty that was even more beautiful than a woman''s. The other was dressed in a white robe that was as elegant as a white lotus. Although they were all smiling, one of them was not smiling, the other was a polite and estranged smile ¡­ Their laughter was extremely tiring.


    Prince Xian''s face sank, his sinister and ghastly smile disappeared, and he sat down in his robes: You''re engaged to Jiu Er?


    Feng Qing Cheng said with a good temper: "Yes, Wei Guogong has already received my betrothal gift." In the end, he even revealed a face full of happiness from getting married soon.


    Prince Xian pursed his lips: "Why did you marry Jiu Er?"


    "We love each other and engaged in private life. She won''t marry me, but she won''t marry me. No one will be able to separate us." Feng Qing Cheng''s smile was like a warm breeze, making people feel as if they were bathing in the spring breeze. Of course, if a woman saw him, she would definitely marry him. However, Prince Xian was a man, and men would sometimes struggle to win in terms of looks.


    Pui, he wouldn''t believe this bullshit. Xi Jiu Er had no conscience at all. Even though she had asked her to marry him multiple times, she had always pushed things too far. Looking at the situation, she couldn''t help but think that he had a high status, a good background, and an even younger appearance. There was no reason for Xi Jiu Er not to marry her?


    It was definitely because he had been drugged by Xi Wan Feng that Xi Jiu Er was unwilling to forgive him, and even the fact that he had a slightly better impression of her had vanished like smoke in thin air.


    Xi Wan Rong said that she would concoct the medicine for him, and it had already been half a month since she last saw him. He had originally hoped that this medicine would change Xi Jiu Er''s mind and wake him up after the raw rice was cooked. If he had a child, he would see how she would escape him.


    Now... "Clap clap clap clap clap." A few black-clothed men immediately appeared behind him, waiting for Prince Xian''s orders.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s finger slightly bent in the air, and his face sunk as he asked: "Prince Xian, may I ask what you''re doing? Have I offended Your Highness in any way?


    "You only need to know that it''s impossible for you and Xi Jiu Er to be together in this lifetime." With a wave of his hand, he immediately tied Feng Qing Cheng up. Feng Qing Cheng''s face changed as he said angrily: "Your Royal Highness, what are you trying to do?"


    "I didn''t do anything. I just wanted to treat you to tea. Don''t worry, I won''t hurt you." Prince Xian politely smiled at Feng Qing Cheng, causing Feng Qing Cheng to cover his head and gag before walking away.


    Prince Xian was in a good mood, he crossed his legs and swayed in the air, looking around, he said with dissatisfaction: "There''s no celebration at all, it makes this bridegroom of mine very uncomfortable, come ¡ª"


    He was too lazy to bother with why Xi Wan Feng had not returned to the residence yet, because he had thought of a better idea.

 C203

    There was a small village about six kilometers to the north of the capital. There were only a dozen or so families that lived by farming and selling vegetables. The people here were simple and poor, in contrast to the luxurious capital.


    It was now late at night, and the dogs were snoring loudly. Chickens were cooing in the chicken coop, and the entire village was unusually quiet in the night. Of course, there were also the sounds of carriages rolling towards the village head''s back door.


    "Dong Dong Dong ¡­"


    The Village Head and his wife were heating up the brick bed when they were suddenly interrupted and went out. The Village Head''s wife was still blushing, but now her face had turned into that of a resentful wife. The village chief pulled up his pants and scolded: "That son of a b * tch doesn''t even allow people to sleep well in the middle of the night? See how I fix him, TNND. "


    The Village Chief opened the door with a ''clang'' and shouted, "Who are you? It''s the middle of the night ¡­" "¡­"


    Beneath the moonlight stood a graceful woman in long green clothes. She wore a simple hairpin as she stood at the door. Her pale face was no different from a female ghost. The village chief had never been afraid of ghosts. He was scared by the cold look on her face and broke out in a cold sweat.


    "Madame, you, you''re here, please come in." The village chief screamed ''Ouch!'' in his heart. Previously, she looked like a noblewoman, but now, she looked like a female ghost. Why did she change so much? Could it be ¡­ Could he have run into a ghost in the middle of the night? When she thought about it, she was immediately shocked. She lowered her head to see a shadow under her skirt before she relaxed.


    "Where''s my wet nurse?" The woman asked expressionlessly.


    "The nurse is in the back room." The village chief hurriedly said, muttering in his heart, Come to see the wet nurse in the middle of the night? How strange. These rich people really didn''t know what they were thinking.


    "I came today to pick her up. Carry her to the carriage ¡­" She took out a heavy bag from her sleeve and said, "This is the remaining silver. Take it."


    "This... This... "Too many ¡­" The Village Chief took the hand and weighed it in his hand before being shocked. The woman said impatiently, "I''m giving it to you, take it and quickly carry the wet nurse onto the carriage."


    The village chief had no choice but to put the purse into his pocket, returning to the house to call his wife to prepare to move. His wife did not pretend that she did not have an MZ. She immediately put on her dress and went into the room with the old couple. The room was filled with medicine, and on top of it was a frail woman.


    It was the First Lady.


    Then the one who came to visit late at night was Xi Wan Feng.


    The Village Chief''s wife was also meticulous. She helped First Lady put on his clothes, shoes and socks, and in the end, simply combed her hair and placed it on the Village Chief''s back. First Lady squinted his eyes, the light in his eyes dimmed and his expression became lifeless.


    Only now did the couple realize that not only was there a carriage, there was also a carriage following behind them. An ordinary carriage wasn''t luxurious, but the man driving the carriage didn''t move at all, causing them to not dare to take a step closer.


    Xi Wan Feng saw that they had taken good care of First Lady, and said indifferently: "You will definitely not tell this to anyone, if you were to leak it out ¡­"


    The couple bowed their heads in panic. "Yes, yes, yes, we wouldn''t have said a word about this even if we brought it to the coffin."


    At the end of the matter, the couple sent the two carriages off with a fawning smile. Finally, the man''s lazy voice sounded from the carriage, and they only coughed once. The carriage driver took out two throwing knives from his waist.


    Puff.


    Puff.


    The village chief couple''s heads were covered in blood, waiting for their fearful eyes to fall to the ground. A five year old child rubbed his hazy eyes as he walked into the courtyard: "mother, father?"


    Inside the carriage, Xi Wan Feng was squatting beside First Lady, her expression was neither sad nor happy: "mother, my daughter came today to see you off for the last time, and also to send you on your way, from now on, I have nothing to worry about you anymore."


    "Xi Jiu Er, I won''t let her be happy. Don''t worry, mother, I will definitely use her head to pay tribute to your divine being." Xi Wan Feng picked up the pillow at the side and looked at First Lady deeply.


    Regardless of whether this woman was her mother or not, from now on, her mother was dead. Xi Wan Rong, her sister, and the Han Family had already released the news and died from an illness. Her brother Xi Mao too, had already starved to death ¡­


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" First Lady''s body could not move, his head shook slightly, and let out a soft ''wuu'' sound. Xi Wan Feng kept thinking back to how Xi Jiu Er had killed Xi Hong Sheng during the execution. His heart turned cold.


    After who knows how long, Xi Wan Feng took the pillow... First Lady''s eyes were wide open, wide open, with an egg that could fit inside his mouth.


    Xi Wan Feng closed First Lady''s eyes...


    "mother ¡­"


    The bright moon was obscured by dark clouds. Heavy black clouds covered the entire night sky. It was likely that it would rain again tomorrow. Just as he said this, the rain began to fall again ¡­ Because of the rain, those who slept soundly at night slept soundly, like a lullaby.


    Liu Xiang closed the window and saw that her princess was still reading.


    Princess, it''s raining. Liu Xiang said.


    "Sigh, I can''t sleep." When Xi Jiu Er thought about marrying someone, she felt a burst of panic and fear. She didn''t know what to be afraid of, and her heart was always flustered.


    "Princess, are you thinking about the marriage in a few days?" Liu Xiang was sitting opposite of her with a worried look on her face, "My princess, marriage is the most important thing to a woman''s life, why are you so careless? If word of this gets out, I''m afraid that the princess will become the laughingstock of the entire world. "


    Xi Jiu Er ''Ai'', "I am not living for others. Liu Xiang, tell me, what kind of person is Xiao Feng? Will I suffer if I marry into the family? "No matter how I look at him, he''s always a man with a lower status than me ¡­"


    Liu Xiang put down her hand that was supporting her cheek. Sigh, the truth has already become a foregone conclusion, what else can she do? Most importantly, this was the character of the Wind Young Master, a character that was more reliable than 10 Li of makeup or face.


    "Princess, men are more or less like this. When they married you, they coaxed you like flowers falling from the sky. When they get home, they would ignore you ¡­" After Liu Xiang finished speaking, she thought that she was the dumbest, and now that the princess was already depressed, wouldn''t she be adding fuel to the fire?


    "He did not coax me, nor did he speak extravagantly. It would be best if he didn''t care about me. That way, I would have a reason for him to divorce me! " Xi Jiu Er sighed, in her heart she hoped that Xiao Feng''s character would be worse, wouldn''t it be better if she escaped and lived a carefree life? However, a voice in her heart told her that how could she marry a man with questionable character? No!


    "Ahhh ¡­ so annoying, so annoying ¡­" Xi Jiu Er cried out. It was indeed love since ancient times, loving the person who grinded the most. But she didn''t think about where she got her love and affection from.

 C204

    It was unknown what had happened to the heavens in the past few days. It had rained heavily for the past few days, and then began to drizzle again. It was extremely annoying, and one would no longer be in the mood to enjoy the rain. I''m begging you not to come down in the rain, it''s better to give an opening to get some fresh air.


    Wei Guogong and Elder Zhang sat under the pavilion. The octagonal pavilion had a curtain of water hanging over it, and bubbling sounds were heard from the ground. The sky was still filled with dark clouds. It was unknown when Wei Guogong would see the sun, but her face was just like Tian''er''s.


    With a jar of wine in his hand, Wei Guogong waved his arm and gulped it down. Knocking his lips, Wei Guogong glared into the distance: This Jiu Er girl is really too worrisome, she pisses me off.


    Elder Zhang did not answer, but Wei Guogong took a deep breath and finished it all in one go. She casually threw the jar of wine into the lake with a face full of dissatisfaction, like an angry child.


    Elder Zhang sighed. This matter had been resolved countless times, so he didn''t know if his words were useful or not. Thus, he decided not to speak anymore. Princess Laifu was a person who had her own will, so even if she married that Xiao Feng, she would not necessarily lose out. Furthermore, what should she do about the marriage was suggested by Princess Laifu, he wouldn''t be able to do anything even if he had steeled his heart to marry her.


    "Where''s Jiu Er?" Wei Guogong turned her head. He had been ''very unhappy'' these few days and the whole household knew that this little unscrupulous fellow did not come to comfort him. His daughter wasn''t considerate, his granddaughter wasn''t considerate. How could his old age be so miserable?


    "Princess said that she has matters to attend to and has gone out ¡­" Old Zhang still didn''t understand Wei Guogong''s thoughts?


    Out? Wei Guogong snorted: "She''s been really busy lately, tell her when he gets back that when we get married, she has to look like he''s waiting to be married off. Don''t always run outside everyday, and still think that you''re a little girl who hasn''t left the pavilion."


    "Yes." Elder Zhang returned absent-mindedly. It was fine as long as he gave the notice, but it was not up to him to decide whether to do it or not.


    "Also, we''re about to get married. Let her weave something decent for her dowry." Wei Guogong huffed and puffed, looking like an unhappy child who wanted to take revenge. Old Zhang said lazily: "Yes, this old servant will tell the princess."


    The rain was still pouring down and the Wei Guogong was even more upset. This time, he was worried about where the flood was coming from. Elder Zhang could tell from his expression that although he didn''t ask about politics, he still cared about the world.


    "Master, let''s go back. This old servant will fight with you for a round." Old Zhang glanced at the sky and was also infected by the Wei Guogong. When he turned around, he realized that the Wei Guogong was looking at him with contempt. Old Zhang pursed his lips.


    Inside, heart-nourishing hall''s backyard, ex-sister-in-law''s house.


    "ex-sister-in-law, you ¡­" After closing the door, the room was too dark. ex-sister-in-law lit a candle and took out a box from under the bed.


    He opened the box and found some random things. It seemed like they were old. ex-sister-in-law placed the items on the table one by one with a serious attitude. Xi Jiu Er guessed that the ex-sister-in-law must be showing him something in the future.


    "Since meeting the princess, you have taken care of me. I am unable to return the favor. Only one skill is acceptable. If the princess doesn''t mind, I can give it to you all I want." The ex-sister-in-law laughed.


    Oh? Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Everyone says that skills do not affect the body, since it is the unique skill of the ex-sister-in-law, then I must learn it, but I am a little stupid, doing technical work in this area is not my strong point." After learning martial arts from Liu Shui, Liu Shui even despised himself. He wanted to sew some flowers with Liu Xiang, so the embroidery was barely passable, but if he said that the embroidery was done by a servant, no one would suspect that it was done by someone else, especially someone from the Miss.


    "This is very simple." ex-sister-in-law had also heard Liu Shui''s complaints, saying that the princess seemed to be quite a smart person, so why did it seem like she had suffered a stroke from just learning the skill? From time to time, Liu Shui would secretly embroider some of the ducks that Xi Jiu Er had embroidered. He didn''t know if they were peonies or peonies, but he would cover his mouth and laugh as he asked her, "Sister Qian, look quickly, what''s this embroidery for?"


    "Duck?"


    "No."


    "Lovers?"


    "No."


    "Birds?"


    "No."


    "..." What is that? "


    "White Pigeon ¡­"


    "Puff ¡­" "Why are you on the water?"


    "According to the princess, she saw a pigeon swimming on the water ¡­"


    "She must be lying to you ¡­"


    "..." "Yes, she''s the master. You have to give her this much face."


    "That''s true!"


    ex-sister-in-law held onto Xi Jiu Er''s hand, and slowly walked down the road from the exposed collarbone to her cheek with a slight tremble. Xi Jiu Er''s finger trembled. Eh?, an icy coldness that carried a trace of coldness, she could not help but look closer. She was shocked to find that she did not even have a single pore!


    "Could it be that ex-sister-in-law ¡­ Are you wearing a mask? " Xi Jiu Er was surprised, she had heard of someone who knew how to make a human skin mask, and wearing it on their face, it was impossible to see if it was real or fake. On a whim, Xi Jiu Er once asked around for such a consummate skill, but to no avail. Who would have thought that she would have such a person beside him? After hiding in the shadows for so many years, she hadn''t noticed it at all.


    "Princess is indeed intelligent." ex-sister-in-law smiled. She carelessly touched under his ear a few times before tearing it off. A face mask that was as thin as a piece of paper fell off, revealing ex-sister-in-law''s true appearance ¡­ How does that face describe it? The peach blossoms that were rising in the air brought with it waves of light, like the autumn water, or the rippling lake surface. It disturbed the minds of people, causing an indescribable charm to appear on their faces.


    It was no wonder that the ex-sister-in-law''s actions and speech carried the charm of a mature woman. Now that she tore off her mask and revealed her true appearance, the charm of a mature woman became even stronger. This was the first time Xi Jiu Er had seen such an enchanting woman in his past life and rebirth.


    "Princess?" ex-sister-in-law called out.


    "Cough, nothing, nothing ¡­" Xi Jiu Er could not help but despise him. He actually had such a thought about the ex-sister-in-law, it was too disgusting, and he was too despicable.


    ex-sister-in-law only smiled faintly when she saw this. "Princess, the women of our Yan Clan have learnt bewitching techniques since they were three years old, how to seduce men, and how to release the unique charm of a woman to attract men. Even if it''s women, we have to treat them like men."


    "Yan family?" Xi Jiu Er had never heard of this family.


    "It''s normal for the princess to not know about it when she is young. The Yan family is a family with a secret technique, and there are very few people who know about the Yan family now. Perhaps Wei Guogong has heard of it before." ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "After I met my husband, I hid myself in the countryside ¡­ "Forget it, it''s all over now ¡­"


    Everyone has their own secrets and they have their own unspeakable past. Xi Jiu Er smiled lightly. After that, ex-sister-in-law started to demonstrate how to make it into a human skin mask step by step. She was a very meticulous person and every step she explained was very comprehensive.


    For three days, Xi Jiu Er brought along the human skin mask that she personally made and sat in front of the copper mirror. Even she himself couldn''t recognize the person in the mirror. Laughing, very, very good, very close to the skin, the expression also looks very natural.

 C205

    ex-sister-in-law exclaimed: "Princess is truly intelligent. I took a few years to learn it, and didn''t expect Princess to take only three days. I am truly impressed."


    "No, it was clearly you who taught me." Xi Jiu Er caressed the skin on his face, his eyes shining brightly, and slowly revealed a meaningful smile.


    After three days, the rain would pass and in two days, it would be the wedding day of Xi Jiu Er and Feng Qing Cheng. No one had informed them that they would be carried inside a small palanquin at night. How simple ¡­ Xi Jiu Er facepalmed, while Liu Xiang was constantly nagging in her ears. She seemed to be quite smart, but in reality, she was a fool. felt even more regret and hurriedly agreed to the marriage.


    This afternoon had just passed and there was a carriage parked in front of the Wei Guogong Palace. The black boots, green robe and jade-like face were the old Eunuch Hai that had been serving beside Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge for many years. The Eunuch Hai had personally caused a small sensation, and Xi Jiu Er was currently taking a nap. The Wei Guogong told everyone not to wake her up, and he had already roughly guessed what it was.


    "Eunuch Hai." Wei Guogong lightly called out. She did not flatter or flatter the Emperor just because he was a popular person by his side.


    "Your Majesty, please enter the palace." Eunuch Hai said respectfully.


    A quarter of an hour after Wei Guogong left, Xi Jiu Er woke up. She frowned: "I wonder what entering the palace is all about."


    Liu Shui took a bite of his dessert and said, "It''s not just rain in the capital. "A tribe of Wutong from the Bridge of Peace, having massacred the people of the three cities, has taken over the western part of the city, south of the East Huai, as their own."


    A blurry map appeared in Xi Jiu Er''s mind, and it became more and more clear ¡­ Since there was no bridge, a tribe of the south took advantage of this time to attack the three cities of the South Huai City, and the whole area from the west to the south became her.


    If I want to take down the one sob tribe, I must cross the Ning An River under the Ning An bridge. The Ning An bridge is one of the best rivers in my world, not only did it cost me a lot to build it, it took me twenty years ¡­ It hadn''t even been a hundred years, yet it was already destroyed by the flood?


    "It must have been those worms. The bridge that was built over twenty years ago was destroyed just like that ¡­" Liu Shui deeply detested and loathed these corrupt officials, and every time he spoke, he wished that he could kill them sooner rather than later. Liu Shui was right, there was no bridge that was twenty years old, and no bridge that had a lifespan of a hundred years. He had already built the Kannai Bridge in three years, and it had been more than 150 years ¡­


    In the royal study room, Wei Guogong heard Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s furious voice from outside the hall. "A bunch of bastards!


    "Yes."


    With a clatter, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge bellowed out loud: Why haven''t you delivered the latest information to us?


    The Wei Guogong followed the Eunuch Hai expressionlessly into the imperial study. The floor that was bright enough to serve as a mirror was scattered with memorials, and on both sides stood civil servants and dojos. There were some people that the Wei Guogong did not recognize.


    "Your Majesty, the Wei Guogong is here." Eunuch Hai gave a meaningful glance to the eunuchs at the side, telling them to quickly organize the memorial.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge turned around, the anger on his face was still the same. When he faced Wei Guogong, he restrained his anger and pulled out a smile of someone in a superior position, which was not considered very respectful: "Prince Fu is here, someone come sit."


    Wei Guogong waved her hand, "There is no need, I will stand."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face congealed, as though he did not expect Wei Guogong to openly reject him. His face immediately darkened as he spoke in a heavier tone, "Isn''t Wei Guogong''s body not well? You are an official of the country, so it is only natural for you to sit. "


    The palace maid immediately brought over a chair, causing the Wei Guogong to have no choice but to sit.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge followed suit and sat down. After glaring left and right for a moment, he turned his gaze towards Wei Guogong. "Prince Fu, there''s a imperial report here.


    Eunuch Hai immediately took out the vermillion report book and respectfully presented it to Wei Guogong, regardless of whether it was the officials or the dojo, they all remained silent. Where the Wei Guogong sat, it was as if she was an unshakable bell, and other than Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, no one else was qualified to sit.


    When Wei Guogong finished reading, she returned the memorial to his Eunuch Hai and fell silent. Even a fool could guess Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s intention. No matter how he said it, the outcome would still be the same.


    "What does Prince Fu think?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge leaned his body against the wall and asked, staring straight at Wei Guogong, he did not believe that Wei Guogong did not understand his meaning.


    "This old official is already old and has not asked about politics for many years. How could I dare to speak carelessly?" Wei Guogong stood up with a bit of fear and cupped his hands. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge raised his eyebrows. Was he going to play dumb with him? His eyes sweeping around, Yun Qing Ran''s father Old Master Yun immediately laughed: "Wei Guogong''s words are really embarrassing us, you truly are a genius of my generation, even if we don''t ask about politics, we would definitely have our own opinions in the face of such difficulties. "We discussed for a long time and decided to find someone who can take on a big responsibility ¡­"


    Wei Guogong was indifferent, even her expression did not change. She was slightly embarrassed and coughed. Waiting for him to silence the Wei Guogong, only then did she speak slowly, "To be able to take on such a big responsibility, I think of a person."


    Knowing that it was definitely not the answer he was looking for, Old Master Yun still asked with a smile: "Who is it?"


    "Shi Chen Wen, General Shi." Wei Guogong looked at Old Master Yun very seriously, not allowing him to see any of her emotions. Shi Chen Wen? The entire capital knew that Shi Chen Wen was engaged to Yun Family''s eldest daughter, Yun Qing Ran. The wedding date was set for spring ¡­ If Shi Chen Wen were to go, it was unknown when or how many years it would take for them to get married.


    Old Master Yun was speechless. Although he was not satisfied with his future son-in-law, they were betrothed to someone. He couldn''t let his daughter become a widow, right? Pfft, not a widow, but no husband. It was rare to find a husband that Yun Qing Ran and Lady Yun found pleasing to the eye, and he also found a son-in-law that she found slightly more pleasing to look to have left just like that. It was unknown whether he lived or died, so even if he didn''t want it, he was still very selfish.


    "Could it be that Senior Yun thinks that the General Shi is not suitable?" Wei Guogong looked at him coldly. Old Master Yun understood and immediately kept silent.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was not in the mood to watch the two fight in the dark, his expression was cold as he replied: "General Shi is indeed not suitable, he has little experience and does not understand much about the Ghost Clan, and does not understand much about their tactics.


    Old Master Yun pursed his lips, as if he didn''t hear anything.


    Wei Guogong nodded with a ''Your Majesty is right'' expression. She frowned. "Then, Prince Xian." These words seemed to be spoken unintentionally, but it made Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s eyebrows twitch.


    "Prince Xian is merely a popinjay king, how would he possibly lead his troops to war!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face sank. "What? Wei Guogong thinks that you should bear the brunt of this matter? "


    "The first to bear the brunt of the attack? Why? "I am already quite old. It has been a long time since I have been on the battlefield. It would be bad if I don''t. If I were to go, I would be a burden to me. I will die for sure." Wei Guogong kneeled on the ground, as if confirming that his body was weak, and his body swayed a little when he knelt.


    The corner of Old Master Yun''s mouth twitched, he turned and looked at a certain direction to investigate.


    "Look at how the Wei Guogong is getting stronger and stronger, her spirit is really good." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge could not even laugh because after he ascended the throne, he had exterminated a lot of warriors and generals. So few of us can fight now. Besides, he could also take advantage of this opportunity ¡­


    "Sigh, it''s just a matter of physical strength on the surface but not on the inside. How can it compare to a young person''s physical strength ¡­" Wei Guogong sighed, feeling extremely desolate.

 C206

    The autumn wind was calm, and after the rain had ended, it became even colder. After Xi Jiu Er learned the art of disguise, she wore her new human skin mask and went out to stroll with Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang was extremely curious, and she warned her repeatedly: "This matter cannot be let Liu Shui know, understand?"


    "Why?" Liu Xiang already treated Liu Shui as her good sister, and the three of them lived together as if they were inseparable. There were some things that Liu Xiang couldn''t tell her, that she could understand. It was just a human skin mask.


    Liu Xiang''s thoughts had always been simple, she could deal with enemies that came straight at her, but she would not be able to do it if she turned her head. Xi Jiu Er didn''t say a word. She found a man''s robe and dressed up, making him look like an elegant young man.


    In the royal study room, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge knelt down on the ground, looking at everyone with his nose and eyes, as if he was calm and at ease, as if he would be unable to provide any help whenever the clan war was mentioned. With the cough and the pain in his chest, he immediately became dispirited, as if he was about to soar into the sky.


    Finally, there was an official who couldn''t bear to see him like this. Of course, he couldn''t bear to see him in such a state. It would take years for him to get used to it. Since ancient times, civil and military officials had never lived in peace, and the Emperor was happy to see them at each other''s throats. Only by doing so would there be the possibility of restraining each other.


    "I say, Wei Guogong, don''t pretend, alright?" The one who spoke was none other than the father of the Mubai, the father who had been poisoned to death by Xi Wan Feng. Although Xi Jiu Er didn''t kill her, she and Xi Wan Feng were sisters.


    "How am I pretending? Didn''t you hear from the emperor just now that my body isn''t good?" Could it be that the Emperor can lie too? " Wei Guogong angrily questioned Master Zheng, then changed her expression like a woman, and said grievingly: "I left the battle at the age of fifteen, a whole fifty years ago. My entire life was dedicated to the battle, and I ended up dying from an illness ¡­ "Here ¡­"


    Wei Guogong did not care about sitting in the royal study, she just pulled up his pants in front of everyone, they were really curious why his pants were not tied up, she only saw three ugly scars the size of a small palm on her right leg, although they were old scars, they were still extremely sinister.


    Pointing at the scar Wei Guogong, she said angrily, "This is a group of trained leopards that bit me fifteen years ago on the battlefield. If I was smart enough to protect me, my subordinate would have probably crippled my leg."


    "Shua!" Wei Guogong was really too quick to cover her ears before lifting up her left leg. Everyone present let out a cold breath of air as they saw Wei Guogong''s left calf was sliced flat by a sharp weapon. Compared to the leopard eating it, this was not terrifying, but it was even more frightening.


    "And my chest." Wei Guogong opened his chest a few times to reveal his chest, there was a scar a bit away from his heart, it was the size of a child''s fist, everyone could not imagine what would happen if this arrow was shot at them. Thinking about this, his whole body broke out in cold sweat, and he started to shiver, as if his chest was starting to feel pain.


    "If my heart is slightly longer than normal ¡­" Wei Guogong looked at the rest of the people, but of course Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not look at them, "Do you think that my body is still healthy after experiencing all these? You can even lead troops to war? "


    Master Zheng looked at Wei Guogong from head to toe and said, "You look very healthy." He did not believe the Wei Guogong''s words. There were several times when he saw the Wei Guogong practicing riding and hunting in the outskirts of the city.


    "Is it healthy to be loud?" Wei Guogong pursed her lips with an aggrieved look on her face. She touched her tears and said, "Your majesty, this old official also wants to bow to the death. I''m afraid that before I can even enter the battlefield ¡­"


    They had been on the battlefield for their entire lives, but now that they were old, it would be immoral of them to ask someone to lead a group of people into battle. However, there was no one suitable person in the entire country ¡­ Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge moved his butt comfortably: "How about this, We will send a few imperial physicians to take care of your body with you, what do you think?"


    Aiyo, as expected of the emperor, this method is too good! Lord Zheng''s eyes became a slit as he smiled, "The emperor is wise and wise, this method is not bad. This way, Wei Guogong does not need to worry about his body being able to wholeheartedly serve his country ¡­"


    "To die, right?" Wei Guogong took his words coldly and laughed: "Wow, didn''t Master Zheng say that he is empty talking on paper? "Why don''t we go together?"


    "Talking on paper, I don''t know what you''re talking about." Master Zheng had long forgotten that the two of them almost fought over the war on paper.


    Wei Guogong cupped her hands and kneeled in Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s direction: "The Emperor should invite someone else. This old subject doesn''t have that kind of power." This counted as a very straightforward rejection of Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s suggestion.


    The fire in Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s chest burned as it rose up. The expression on his face could no longer be held back as he stared at the motionless Wei Guogong and let out a cold laugh. He swept a glance at the old officials and cursed at them for being a piece of trash. Were they unable to persuade them to take the capital''s salary for free?


    "Then the Wei Guogong will choose one of them. He will be the commander and you will be the vice commander-in-chief. This is not something that can be discussed in the imperial edict." The atmosphere in the palace became silent. Without the Wei Guogong''s loud voice, the only thing that remained was Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge hitting the table: "Du, du, du, du ~ ~ ~"


    "Your majesty is wise. This old official doesn''t understand much about the officials in the imperial court. How about your majesty choose a general?" Wei Guogong bowed and replied.


    "Alright."


    There were many people on the streets today, and all the vendors were lined up on the streets. Liu Xiang, dressed in her servant attire followed behind Xi Jiu Er, looking around excitedly.


    "What kind of holiday is it today?" It''s so lively? " Xi Jiu Er was strolling leisurely on the street like an elegant young master. Sigh, there was nothing that she was interested in.


    "Ugh ¡­" "Today is Winter ¡­" Liu Xiang recalled. At this time of the year, the goods were all very cheap, and some wealthy families would not come here to buy. Most of the goods here were inferior goods that they had stocked up on a few years ago. The people who came here were all poor, even though they were scum, probably for a warm winter.


    "Prefecture ¡­" Young Master, look. It''s Miss Chu. " Amongst the crowd, Chu Ge brought a servant and quickly entered a teahouse. Behind him, a man looked around and also followed.


    "Young Master, that man definitely has ill intentions towards Miss Chu." Liu Xiang concluded: "Should we go over to take a look? If it''s those vicious people, we can save Miss Chu."


    Chu Ge and Yun Qing Ran were her only two friends, so she didn''t need Liu Xiang to say anything. The man''s movements were well-trained just now. Her steps were steady and her expression was stern ¡­


    "Here, put this on your face." Xi Jiu Er walked over to the rouge stall and casually scooped up the rouge before smearing it on her face. The rouge boss'' aiya ''yelled out,'' My rouge! ''


    Xi Jiu Er gave the boss a silver ingot. This silver ingot was enough to buy all his rouge. The boss then called out to Xi Jiu Er''s back happily: "Young Master will come again next time."


    The business of the teahouse was exceptionally good today. With the hall full of seats, the waiter brought Xi Jiu Er up to the second floor: "This Young Master is so lucky, there is still one more room on the second floor."


    Xi Jiu Er gave ten taels of silver to the waiter and asked softly, "Just now, a cloaked Miss entered by herself without bringing a servant girl. Which private room is she in?"

 C207

    "That Miss is right next door to Young Master''s private room." The waiter had an extremely respectful attitude as he took the silver and led Xi Jiu Er to the innermost corner of the room.


    "Alright, you can leave now. You don''t need to wait on me here." Xi Jiu Er intentionally lowered her voice and instructed, "Don''t disturb us."


    "Yes." The waiter had guessed what was going on and respectfully retreated, the silver in his arms whistling loudly. With this silver, he didn''t need to spend his days here looking down on others. The most important thing was to pack up and go back to his house to marry his wife and son.


    "I''ll leave this matter to you. You must complete it for me. After this is done, there will be benefits for you." Her face was filled with the gentleness of the southern region, the Chu Family''s hundred year old women were naturally not those little jade-like girls, and the direct daughter of the Chu Family was one of the more aristocratic girls. Xi Jiu Er had never seen her cold voice or heartless tone before.


    Everyone has a mask, for relatives, for friends, for enemies. In comparison to Yun Qing Ran''s true nature, Chu Ge was that person who was good at hiding. As she quietly sat in front of the partition, the deaf Xi Jiu Er listened to every single word spoken by the chair next door. Her thumb and forefinger twisted together, and her masked face did not show any expression.


    "Aren''t you and Princess Laifu good sisters? Why would you want her life?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s finger paused, a look of surprise flashed past her eyes, and then, the surprise disappeared from her eyes. People''s hearts would always be separated from their stomachs, it was unpredictable and dangerous, Chu Ge was her true friend, she was here to kill him ¡­ It is false that the heart is not in pain. Suddenly thinking of Yun Qing Ran, what intentions did she have to kill her? Same as Chu Ge?


    "That''s not something you should ask." Chu Ge replied coldly, as if she was angry.


    "Don''t be angry, I was just casually asking ¡­" "Alright, I''m leaving ¡­" After the chaos outside calmed down, Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up and took off the human skin mask on her face.


    "Xi Jiu Er... Why did he marry you? You''re not worthy of him at all... Ah ¡­ Ninth, Jiu Er, you, why are you here? " The private room suddenly lit up, she saw a person in shock standing at the entrance with the curtain raised, his expression was extremely calm, it was Xi Jiu Er who walked in from next door!


    She ¡­ why was she here? What did she just hear? Did she hear everything? Many questions and worries sprouted in his mind as he instinctively stood up and laughed, "Jiu Er, come in and sit. I didn''t know you were here."


    "Jiu Er, don''t misunderstand me. The words I said just now did not have any special meaning at all. Don''t take it to heart." Chu Ge thought that Xi Jiu Er had heard what she had just said, and wanted Xi Jiu Er to let go of all her worries.


    "Jiu Er... To be honest, I, I like Young Noble Feng ¡­ That''s why I said those angry words just now. You must not take it to heart. " Chu Ge deeply blamed herself as she secretly glanced at Xi Jiu Er''s expression.


    "Chu Ge, I have almost been deceived by your expression, you better not act like this in front of me. Let''s not beat around the bush. Today, you and I no longer have the friendship of sisters, so we will cut each other off. " Xi Jiu Er forced a smile, his face was so numb that it was unknown what expression she used to hide it, angry? Resentment? Smile? Calm?


    Chu Ge was startled, she did not expect Xi Jiu Er to expose her so blatantly, could it be that she wasn''t good enough? Did she discover it? I like your future husband, that''s why I am able to speak without restraint. Since we are friends now, you should not be angry, I will stop this thought, and it will not grow any more. "


    Although Xi Jiu Er saw that she had said it like that, the hatred in her eyes could not be hidden. She wanted to poke at Chu Ge''s weakness, and then said with a smile that was not a smile: You''re thinking about him, and wanting to marry him is not impossible, what about now? When the time comes, she''ll agree even if she doesn''t agree with it. "


    "You, you don''t care about him? "Don''t you care if he marries someone else?" Her face alternated between red and white, and it took her a while to collect her thoughts. She forced a smile that she thought was very gracious and appropriate.


    "Who cares what he does? It''s not that I want to marry him, it''s that he wants to marry me. " I don''t believe you can continue to pretend that you can''t keep up with my words. You pretended to be disdainful and disdainful as you spoke, "I''m a princess, how can I marry a commoner doctor? If my grandfather had promised me, I wouldn''t have married him and led a miserable life."


    "Yes, yes?" Chu Ge continued to laugh, with a ''kacha'' her fingernails had broken. She seemed to be unaware, but a smirk on her face and eyes revealed unconcealable jealousy and killing intent.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed and asked: "Chu Ge, don''t you feel that acting is tiring? Especially with people you hate. Don''t you feel tired? You can still laugh! "Stop laughing, and stop pretending. You are a woman, and I am also a woman. Your eyes are telling me that you wish for me to die immediately, and you can''t fool people with your eyes!"


    Chu Ge was startled and her face paled from shock, "Jiu Er, you actually miss me that much? I just wanted to clarify the matter between me and him! Why don''t you believe me? I know you misunderstood me. I treat you as a good friend of mine for life, so how could I be willing to kill you and make you die? "


    Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes and sighed, and for a moment, no one said a word, it was just silence. Not knowing what she was thinking, Chu Ge suddenly asked: "Jiu Er, no matter what I say, you won''t believe me right?" She was just looking straight at Xi Jiu Er. If Xi Jiu Er didn''t believe her, why would she struggle to put on an act? Facing Xi Jiu Er''s gaze, she really could not act.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that Chu Ge was about to reveal her true self, so she nodded and said, "That''s right, I will not trust you even the slightest bit."


    Chu Ge''s expression slowly changed, returning to that hateful, resentful, and jealous look. She asked indifferently yet arrogantly: "Xi Jiu Er, who do you think you are? So what if you''re a princess? Are you even nobler than I am? To be honest, you''re even worse than me. It''s just that she treated you well because he won his favor, hmph! "


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "You finally revealed your true colors, right? Hehe, what is the princess up to? Nothing great, but did you get it? "You spent so much effort but you didn''t get it, and I easily got it. To be more precise, I simply disdained marrying him. If you want it, I can give it to you. But, you should have the ability to get it."


    Chu Ge bit her lips as she stared at Xi Jiu Er. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s calm and collected expression, she wished for nothing more than to kill her. She didn''t know why some people got it so easily, while others tried so hard. For example, his liking ¡­ The first time they had met, she had deeply fallen in love with him. But he had actually fawned over Xi Jiu Er, and endured Xi Jiu Er''s unreasonable actions ¡­

 C208

    Chu Ge threw down her words: "Xi Jiu Er, we''ll see!" With that, she flicked her sleeves and left, leaving behind the funny Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, she quietly sat inside the house for awhile before returning with Liu Xiang. Liu Shui who had heard the news looked at Xi Jiu Er who was dressed in her disguise as a man, then looked at Liu Xiang who had a face full of rouge, and stupidly stuffed a roasted chicken wings into her mouth, without even seeing how she ate, her cheeks moved as though she had grown eyes, and bones moved, as she flew towards a trash of children''s buckets at the side.


    "How''s the investigation going?" Xi Jiu Er changed back into her female attire. Initially, she thought that Wei Guogong had returned, she brought back a message from the palace saying that she would be back tonight. Xi Jiu Er vaguely understood that something big was about to happen.


    "Ever since we met, Xi Wan Feng did not meet with Prince Xian''s Mansion, nor did Prince Xian send anyone to investigate. Some passersby saw that Xi Wan Feng seemed to have gone onto someone else''s carriage, and then rolled down the cliff." Liu Shui patted the oil off his hands and took the kernels from Xi Jiu Er. With an embarrassed smile, he continued, "Servant checked the traces of the carriage, but only found nothing useful after the rain had washed away all the traces."


    Is Xi Wan Feng dead? Xi Jiu Er was extremely shocked to hear this news, it was as though the person he wanted to kill was not his. It was a terrible feeling. Just like when you''re angry and you hit the cotton with a punch.


    "Come, let''s go take a look." She would not rest until she had personally witnessed Xi Wan Feng''s life and death.


    He brought Liu Xiang and Liu Shui to the carriage! Perhaps because she was pregnant, she was even more addicted to sleep. Not long after that, she fell into a little sleep on the carriage. The carriage walked very slowly and steadily. The carriage driver seemed to be an honest, middle-aged man who had been driving Xi Jiu Er''s carriage for a long time. Therefore, Xi Jiu Er did not think much about it.


    Xi Jiu Er, who had just slept for a short while, said: "That Liu Shui, there seems to be a carriage following behind us, something is amiss."


    Liu Shui also said, "I also feel that something is amiss. It doesn''t seem like the way we usually do. "


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er''s expression shook, she raised the carriage curtain and looked, and sure enough, it was not the road she usually took, so she asked the carriage driver: "Why isn''t the road we take today the same as usual?"


    The coachman laughed, "Princess, you came out a little late today. The usual route would definitely delay things, so this servant chose this shortcut so that I could take it. If the county magistrate takes the same route, this servant will turn back!"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the carriage driver, there was nothing wrong, so she said: "Forget it, let''s continue walking on this path."


    After a while, Liu Shui lifted the curtain and suddenly said: "Princess, they are following us." Xi Jiu Er stuck out her head and followed her gaze. As expected, there was a horse behind the horse carriage, and a person was sitting on it immediately.


    "Where are we?" Xi Jiu Er asked the coachman. The carriage driver said, "Princess, don''t worry. We''ll arrive at the fork in the road in fifteen minutes." After a while, a cloud of smoke suddenly rolled into the carriage and Liu Shui cried out in alarm, "Not good ¡­ "Yes..." Following which, everyone fainted.


    Xi Jiu Er was woken up by the splash of cold water, and she quickly opened her eyes and shook her head vigorously. Thinking back to the scene before her, she immediately struggled to get up, and then ¡ª She saw a young and beautiful face standing in front of her, looking at her with a face that seemed to contain hatred and a smile that was not a smile.


    Chu Ge!


    "Hello, Chu Ge. We meet again." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "What do you mean by doing this?"


    "What do you mean? It''s not a big deal, I just came here to welcome you! Do you like it? I think you''ll like it! " Chu Ge giggled with excitement on her face.


    "Xi Jiu Er, as long as you die, I will disguise myself as you again ¡­ At that time, who would have known that I would be Chu Ge? "Hahahaha ¡­" Chu Ge laughed complacently, but Xi Jiu Er said: "Really? "What a great plan. However, you still have to think about whether this method is feasible or not."


    This thought was only an idea that Chu Ge had thought of in an instant. Hearing Xi Jiu Er''s words now, she hesitated a little, since changing her appearance would expose herself one day! Furthermore, it was not as though she and Feng Qing Cheng had only been together for a day or two.


    She looked at Xi Jiu Er, originally thinking that she would definitely cry and beg for forgiveness at this point in time. However, she was extremely astonished; At the same time, she also knew that Xi Jiu Er was not an ordinary noble woman.


    How much suffering had Chu Ge suffered to regain her memory? She glanced at her mother beside her and said, "Go out and take a look." According to her sources, Xi Jiu Er leaving the mansion today was no different from usual, it seemed that she was relaxing, that''s why Chu Ge decided to make his move at this time. Xi Jiu Er reckoned that she would not even guess that she would make a move at this time, even she had only decided to do it on the spur of the moment.


    But, with how calm Xi Jiu Er was, being able to smile and chat caused her to hesitate, she was afraid that Xi Jiu Er would trick her.


    Her idea of changing her appearance was like a seed that was being unsheathed from its shell. As long as it was successful, she could replace it. Why? She gradually understood that she had to fight for everything she wanted and she had to work hard to pay for it. She had always wanted Feng Qing Cheng and this was what she wanted so even if she died, she would not give up.


    The mother came back and said, "Everything is normal outside."


    It was only then that Chu Ge smiled, and her heart was finally at ease. She had only decided to make a move on the spur of the moment, and even she had not expected that Xi Jiu Er would be able to predict her future. Her smile was very cold and scary, "Jiu Er, do you think you can escape today?"


    Xi Jiu Er also smiled faintly, but she was actually worried in her heart. In her anxiety, she hid her helplessness and said: "Chu Ge, I advise you to think twice before doing this. If you stop now, I''ll pretend nothing happened... "If you want to continue..."


    I have to admit, the cold aura that Xi Jiu Er unleashed caused Chu Ge to shudder. She then laughed coldly: "Jiu Er, you truly didn''t see your own form when you said this, don''t you know that your life is mine? You''re just my prisoner... I want you to do what I want you to do... What choice do you have? "


    Chu Ge was extremely pleased with her speech, Xi Jiu Er had been listening and Liu Xiang also did not speak. The master and servant pair already unconsciously formed a tacit understanding, and so Chu Ge finally said: "I was not scared, Jiu Er ¡­ Today, I will take your life! "

 C209

    Xi Jiu Er''s imposing manner was not the least bit inferior to Chu Ge''s, "Is that so? I''m not scared, nor do I have the intention to scare people, much less you. "


    Chu Ge saw that she was still so cocky even at this stage, and was angered to the point of exasperation that she raised her hand and slapped Xi Jiu Er playfully with her palm. She wanted to teach this bitch, Xi Jiu Er, a slap today, to see if she was still that lofty and doted upon princess.


    was the closest to Xi Jiu Er, and when she saw the palm fall to the ground, she immediately threw herself over and received the slap. Xi Jiu Er looked at the viciousness in Chu Ge''s eyes, and suddenly thought that Chu Ge had not only planned this matter for a day or two, she was going to either kill him, or ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was finally getting nervous, but she remained calm and collected: "Don''t worry about me, she won''t let me off today, you guys better not suffer for nothing."


    She intentionally gave Liu Xiang and Liu Shui a glance, hoping that they wouldn''t act rashly. If they angered Chu Ge, perhaps her and her life would be in danger. Chu Ge sneered when she saw their deep feelings for master and servant, "Oh, it looks like master and servant are really alike. I was really moved by the servants when I heard about it, your master is really a good person, I thought for you guys! "Today, I want you all to see how I will ''serve'' your family''s master. At the very least, we were once sisters."


    After that, a mother came over immediately and dragged Liu Xiang and to a corner to let them see how her revenge was. Liu Xiang and Liu Shui struggled with all they had, but they were powerless on the outside and were being held down, how could they have the strength to open their eyes? Seeing them like this, Chu Ge laughed unusually happily and raised his hand to give Xi Jiu Er a loud and clear slap.


    Chu Ge hated that so much, hated that Xi Jiu Er''s life was so good, and that''s why she didn''t want Xi Jiu Er''s life to continue to be good. Chu Ge''s mind was already muddled from the jealousy, her attacks did not leave any signs of slackening, and used all of her strength! At this time, Xi Jiu Er had two powerful mothers holding down her shoulders, she was simply unable to move!


    Xi Jiu Er did not think of this because she was afraid that Chu Ge would hurt her children. Chu Ge slapped Xi Jiu Er a few times continuously until she saw that her face was swollen before stopping! Seeing that there wasn''t the same Murong as before, Chu Ge was satisfied.


    She didn''t know how Xi Jiu Er, who was so beautiful, could become such a treasure. She laughed heartily and laughed heartily, "Yo, Jiu Er, how does this slap taste? Isn''t it nice? "Hahahahaha ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er knew that this was not the time for her to be weak, nor was it the time for her to give up. This made Chu Ge even more angry and mistreated her. Swallowing the blood in her mouth into her stomach was just a slap! She couldn''t enrage Chu Ge, so she could only stall for time.


    She had to firmly repay Chu Ge in the future, so as long as it was someone who owed her, they would return the favor!


    At this moment, Chu Ge had no choice but to admire Xi Jiu Er''s calmness, as she maintained her calm expression, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Jiu Er is truly a tough nut to crack. When she said that, the old mother next to her passed her a soft whip. It wasn''t very long! This kind of soft whip would not leave any conspicuous marks on a person''s body, but it was very painful!


    Chu Ge stroked her whip: "Jiu Er, this is specially prepared for you, you better taste it properly." Following that, she raised her whip and looked at Xi Jiu Er with a cold smile. Mixed with Chu Ge''s arrogant and proud laughter, Ming''er and Liu Shui both bit their mouths open ¡­


    Every time Chu Ge hit her, she would ask, "You slut, just what sort of seductive method did you use to make him forget about you? Tell me ¡­ "Speak ¡­" Clap clap clap clap clap. From start to finish, Xi Jiu Er had not made a single sound. After countless of blows, Chu Ge no longer had any strength left, and breathlessly stopped: "Jiu Er, you really are a tough nut."


    Xi Jiu Er felt that she had suffered a great injustice. It was not like he could not get involved with her. This damn man, just you wait, I''ll deal with him later.


    When Liu Shui and Liu Xiang saw that Xi Jiu Er had been beaten up, and that they had sustained both physical and mental injuries, they would have preferred to be beaten up by themselves. They struggled, wanting to beat Chu Ge up badly, but their mother held them down without any strength, so they could only beg, "Stop, stop, stop ¡­"


    Chu Ge laughed coldly: "Come here, this Miss is tired. After saying that, she handed the soft whip to her mother. She walked to the side and sat down as she gasped, "I just like your temper. It will only taste if you torture me like this." She was even more satisfied, if Xi Jiu Er begged for mercy from the beginning, it would be too boring.


    Xi Jiu Er''s body burned with pain, but it was nothing compared to her previous life. That mother''s whip was much better than Chu Ge''s, but it still hurt to the bone marrow. Chu Ge looked for a while, and seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not seem to give in at all, she could not help but say angrily: "Jiu Er is truly not afraid of pain, you can even be said to be a hero amongst women."


    The current Chu Ge didn''t have the slightest of gentleness like before. Her ferocious expression had already been muddled by jealousy and revenge, but what difference was there between her and Xi Wan Feng? No, at least Xi Wan Feng was much calmer than she was. Xi Wan Feng rarely became jealous for a man.


    Chu Ge laughed to her heart''s content and waved for her mother to stop. Finally, Liu Xiang said angrily: "I really didn''t expect you to be so venomous, to think that my princess treated you so sincerely. She treated you as a friend, but who would have thought that you would actually know a wolf. "Bah!"


    started to become anxious the moment he heard Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang was trying to divert Chu Ge''s attention to herself. Afraid that Chu Ge would be angered, she immediately shouted: "You talk too much, you don''t have the right to speak here, shut up." Because the shout hurt his wound, causing Xi Jiu Er to grimace in pain.


    She did not know Chu Ge very well, unlike the fact that Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng had already fought many times. This was the first time they were exchanging blows, and they were afraid that Chu Ge would be cruel by nature.


    Looking at Xi Jiu Er''s anxious face, Chu Ge was stunned. She had long heard that Xi Jiu Er was extremely good to the servants by her side, and it seemed that she was indeed right today. Seems like Xi Jiu Er''s weakness is this servant girl, hmph! Very good, Xi Jiu Er, let''s see if you still remain indifferent after this.


    Chu Ge''s anger flashed, then she laughed: "Aiya, if you don''t make a sound, I would have forgotten about you two maidservants. Sigh, look at my memory, I am so muddleheaded! How can I neglect the people around you? " Then she said to her mother, "What are you waiting for?"

    With the continuous autumn rain, it took a great deal of effort for the weather to clear up. The mood of the people in the mansion also gradually became better. The servants who were cleaning the courtyard heard a loud bang as they entered the door. They were so frightened that they thought that it was thunder. Then, their bodies trembled.


    "Bastard." Wei Guogong rushed into her study with a dark face, as if she was flying. She brought along a gust of cold wind, and could also smell''s anger. Wei Guogong rarely got angry, and treated his servants very well, unless they were strict. The rewards and penalties were obviously well-known in Wei Guogong. The only bad thing was that she had a sad face all day, or a face that seemed like it belonged to someone who owed him 258,000 yuan. Even after a while, he still got used to it.


    Wei Guogong directly kicked a big hole in the door. After a long while, she couldn''t take out his anger and shouted: "Men, open this door for me!" It took a few tugs to pull out the foot he had almost wanted to cut off.


    Old Zhang did not speak either, he only told his servants to change the door, and then sent people to find Xi Jiu Er. At this time, the caring little granddaughter must be here, otherwise someone would probably get angry again.


    "Humph, you want to take advantage of me? No way!" Wei Guogong was furious for a while before he laughed, he looked at Old Zhang who was watching by the side and laughed: "This time around, I will not lose out if I kidnap Shi Chen Wen."


    Old Zhang nodded: "That''s true, Prince Fu, you''re smart."


    Wei Guogong chuckled a few times, feeling that her anger had calmed down a little. Then, she heard Old Zhang say: "Prince Fu, this Shi Chen Wen is Old Master Yun''s future son-in-law, and Old Master Yun''s direct daughter is also a good friend of the princess ¡­"


    "Pfft, is my grandfather not as important as her friend''s husband?" Wei Guogong stared widely, fiercely glaring at Old Zhang, his face had a ''why are you so ignorant'' look, and looked outside: "Why did I not see Jiu Er? Grandfather didn''t come to visit me when he returned. This child ¡­ "


    "The servants just said that the princess had left with her servants in a hurry. It has been almost four hours since she returned." Old Zhang replied.


    Wei Guogong sighed, "This child has his own will. mother died a long time ago, and lives in that kind of home ¡­ "I also ¡­" Old Zhang immediately interrupted him, "Prince Fu, you will be leading the troops out in a few days. You''re interested in the princess getting married."


    ''s marriage Wei Guogong was angered: "Say, quickly tell me, why is Chu Ge''s daughter unable to stay in the house anymore? What are you doing out there all day? Hurry up and send people to get her back. "


    "Yes." Old Zhang said.


    They were dissatisfied, they were both servants, and looked at the other two servants, they ate like ordinary Miss, and looked at them, they were not much older than them, and looked just like an old granny! Why are they so lucky? Liu Xiang and Liu Shui were at a disadvantage in comparison. Liu Shui had learnt martial arts before, so this bit of pain was nothing, but Liu Xiang was different.


    Seeing that the few of them were being merciless, Xi Jiu Er immediately struggled and shouted: "Chu Ge, stop! The person you want to deal with is me, it has nothing to do with them at all! It was a waste of Xi Jiu Er''s intelligence, she regretted it the moment she opened her mouth ¡­


    As expected ¡ª ¡ª


    Chu Ge smiled charmingly: "Did you all hear that? We, Jiu Er, care so much about the two servants by our side. "All of you must work hard to serve them ¡­" Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s anxious face, how could Chu Ge not be happy? Why wasn''t she feeling good?


    She hated how Xi Jiu Er could be doted on by her good life, why did Xi Jiu Er have to be such a good servant girl? Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Xiang and her son who were beaten black and blue, and said: "Jiu Er, you don''t need her!" Xi Jiu Er hated Chu Ge. In her heart, she had already treated Liu Xiang and him as her own kin ¡­ Xi Jiu Er calculated the time, she had already dragged on long enough, she did not want to delay any longer, she was afraid that Liu Xiang would be beaten to death by her mother.


    Xi Jiu Er struggled out of the restraints, she suddenly rushed towards Chu Ge, her head fiercely smashing into Chu Ge''s abdomen, causing him to feel pain: "Ouch!" Caught off guard, she was struck by Xi Jiu Er, causing her to grimace in pain. Chu Ge scolded: "Xi Jiu Er, you slut, you still want to struggle?


    Chu Ge''s face had already contorted, her hatred and anger had already caused her to go crazy. She instructed the old mother behind her: "You all better properly receive Jiu Er ¡­ If you can''t handle it, I''ll try it on your behalf. " The old mother s all released Liu Xiang and Liu Shui upon receiving the order, they started to walk towards Xi Jiu Er with sinister expressions on their faces! They have a lot of ways to serve others, don''t they... One of the granny found a pair of scissors, the shiny scissors caused Xi Jiu Er''s face to turn pale white.


    Chu Ge took out a paper bag from her bosom and carefully opened it, revealing a pungent smell! Xi Jiu Er''s face changed as she heard it. She recognized the medicine, and Chu Ge laughed even more proudly than before: "Jiu Er, do you know what this is?"


    Xi Jiu Er had already known this since long ago, but in order to cater to Chu Ge, she still answered truthfully, "What medicine is this?"


    "This is extremely poisonous. After a person eats it for half an hour, they will turn into a pool of blood ¡­ No one can tell who you are. " Chu Ge chuckled: "How is it, this medicine is hard to get, I specifically brought it to entertain you, Jiu Er."


    "Only someone as fortunate as Jiu Er is worthy of having this. Chu Ge laughed like a venomous snake. Xi Jiu Er said coldly: "This is a forbidden medicine from the Imperial Palace, it''s not something that ordinary people can''t take out. I wonder who gave this medicine to Chu Ge!"


    Chu Ge laughed: "Jiu Er is indeed knowledgeable, you even know the origin of this medicine, you really can''t underestimate it." Pausing, she continued, "Seeing that you are about to die, I will tell you that I didn''t get this pill, but someone gave it to me. Do you want to know who did it?"


    Xi Jiu Er asked, "Who is it?"


    Chu Ge said: "In short, there is someone that you would never think of ¡­ "Haha!"


    Chu Ge looked at the sky and saw that it was still early, so she said: "To let you die now, is letting you off too easily! Today will be all up to you guys. " These words were said to all the old mother, and the old mother with the scissors flattered him: "Miss, don''t worry, we will definitely greet her comfortably."


    Chu Ge laughed cheerfully, "This is for the best ¡­"


    Liu Xiang and Liu Shui did not care anymore as they pleaded for mercy at Chu Ge. "Chu Ge, let us go if you are an adult. If you have any anger, then just vent it on us, Servant ¡­ "

 C211

    Chu Ge frowned, hmph, who would have thought that Xi Jiu Er, this slut''s servants were all loyal, truly enviable. Chu Ge said angrily: You are merely a little maid, and you still think you are a thousand gold Miss? No one will be able to interfere. As for the rest of you, wait until I finish taking care of Jiu Er, then I will come and take care of all of you. Humph! "None of them will be spared ¡­"


    As long as you drink with someone related to Xi Jiu Er, she will not let any of you off today, "she said." So, don''t be anxious, I will take my time.


    The mother took one step at a time towards Xi Jiu Er with the scissors. Liu Xiang and Liu Shui were shocked, they could not beg for mercy, and could only enrage Chu Ge, and then curse him. Unfortunately, Chu Ge''s thoughts were no longer on them. She was currently looking at Xi Jiu Er with excitement, watching her being tortured little by little, appreciating her painful expression.


    The mother used a pair of scissors to cut Xi Jiu Er''s face, and Chu Ge shouted: "Move to another place, I still want to look at her distorted face ¡­" Seeing that Xi Jiu Er''s fingernails were pruned pretty well, she said: "Jiu Er''s hands are so beautiful, I can''t help but look at them." That old woman was intelligent and immediately knew what to do.


    "Chu Ge... I will definitely repay you double today''s matter. " Xi Jiu Er gritted her teeth.


    Chu Ge laughed wantonly, "Alright, as long as you are still alive... "Hahaha ¡­" Then, she gave her mother a meaningful glance. That mother then began to cut Xi Jiu Er''s fingernails, cutting them vertically ¡­ Until the pulp! enjoyed watching all of this. She had already waited a long time for this day to come, and felt that it would be as long as her life!


    She thought she could see fear, pain, struggle, begging, regret and regret from Xi Jiu Er ¡­ Unfortunately, she didn''t see anything. Even though she bit her lips, she still didn''t say anything. Indeed, Xi Jiu Er did not plan to beg for mercy either. She knew that Chu Ge was waiting for her to beg for mercy, and then torture her multiple times more.


    She looked at Liu Xiang, whose eyes were filled with tears. Liu Shui had told her to endure, she would not die here, she would not!


    The pain from her hands almost made her faint. It hurt so much that cold sweat broke out all over her body! She told herself that she could not pass out, she would not be able to wake up even if she fainted. She still had a child, so Chu Ge thought that she had no child ¡­ I can''t let her find out... Drops of blood fell to the ground... Xi Jiu Er was starting to feel dizzy ¡­


    Chu Ge stood in front of her and admired her every expression, that kind of complacency. Just as Xi Jiu Er was in so much pain that she almost fainted, a mother of her woke her up with a splash of cold water. Chu Ge bent over and asked gently, "Jiu Er, is it painful? Why not beg for mercy? "As long as you beg for mercy, I''ll immediately stop your pain ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er gasped for breath, looked at her extremely slow face, and suddenly thought of the first time she and Chu Ge had met ¡­ Then she laughed and said, "It hurts... Very painful... But is begging useful? "


    Chu Ge gave a cold snort, "Jiu Er is a tough nut to crack ¡­ It looks like we didn''t take good care of him enough, so you all have to work hard to take good care of him ¡­ "Otherwise ¡­" The mother was frightened. She immediately tried even harder. "I want to hear her begging for mercy. If not, I''ll kill you."


    That mother gritted her teeth and started to go crazy. But no matter what she did, Xi Jiu Er would definitely hold on! Xi Jiu Er was a little impatient, she thought that she was even more stubborn than she initially thought. Just when she thought that she wouldn''t be able to hold on, suddenly ¡ª A figure rushed in! Xi Jiu Er was stunned!


    It was actually Prince Xian! Why was this man here? Is he in cahoots with Chu Ge? In an instant, Xi Jiu Er thought of many possibilities ¡­ Before Chu Ge could even react, she was sent flying by Prince Xian''s slap. That''s right, she was sent flying.


    Then, Chu Ge whimpered and fainted. Other than Chu Ge who did not react, the rest of the mothers in the room did not react either. Five or six guards accompanied the Prince Xian and immediately tied up the mothers! Liu Xiang and Liu Shui''s effects were almost gone as they struggled to crawl over: "Jiu Er ¡­."


    Xi Jiu Er replied, "I''m fine ¡­" Liu Xiang cried just by looking at her bloodied fingers, but she was calmer than her. She took out a handkerchief from his pocket and carefully wrapped it around Xi Jiu Er. His originally beautiful fingers had been cut to the point where she could no longer see what they actually looked like ¡­ Liu Shui couldn''t help but cry as well!


    "It''s fine, I won''t die." She smiled soothingly as she checked her pulse. Fortunately, both adults and children were safe and sound. He also took out some spring water for himself, Liu Shui and Liu Xiang to drink.


    Only then did Xi Jiu Er say to the Prince Xian, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving me. Jiu Er cannot thank you enough." Her heart was filled with complex emotions. She did not expect that the person who would save her would be the Prince Xian ¡­ In that case, she owed him a huge favor! Prince Xian took a small porcelain bottle from his guard''s hand. "This is medicine ¡­"


    Liu Shui, "..."


    Xi Jiu Er, "..."


    Liu Xiang, "..."


    Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s swollen face and hands dripping with blood, the Prince Xian''s eyes were actually red, filled with hatred, he stared at the unconscious Chu Ge and asked: "Jiu Er, are you alright?"


    "Not bad." Xi Jiu Er laughed, and then Prince Xian said: "I''ll make you suffer, this bitch, I''ll definitely make her beg for death."


    "You can''t touch her now." Xi Jiu Er laughed faintly, but her eyes were bloodthirsty: "I cannot bear the pain for nothing, what she gave me today, I want to repay her twice over." Even if Chu Ge was her good friend, that was already the past. Today, the two had turned from friends into enemies. It was so fast that she was a little unfamiliar with Chu Ge when she looked at him.


    Prince Xian said gently: "Alright, I''ll do what you say."


    Xi Jiu Er also did not look at Prince Xian. Why would Liu Xiang and Liu Shui need to say it out loud? They immediately found a basin of cold water and poured it over Chu Ge. Chu Ge was awoken by a fluke, and Liu Shui was the first one to walk up to him and kick him ruthlessly.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Liu Shui, look at our Chu Ge''s character, we should take our time and take our time, we can''t be too hasty! If Chu Ge was not in a rush, why would we be in a rush? " Liu Shui understood and nodded his head: "Jiu Er, Servant knows. Servant promises that I won''t be anxious, and will definitely take care of Chu Ge who takes care of us."


    Liu Xiang snorted coldly, "You have to take things step by step. Servant, other than the princess, who has never served anyone else, has to be more cautious in serving Miss Chu.


    Liu Shui laughed: "Isn''t that so!"


    Chu Ge had already woken up, and when she heard Xi Jiu Er''s master and servant''s words, her heart became as cold as the winter. She did not expect that in such a short period of time, such a dramatic change would happen. She turned her head to look at the cold and detached Prince Xian ¡­

 C212

    Chu Ge looked at the Prince Xian carefully, and said indifferently: "Hmph, he''s almost married, do you still have any presumptuous thoughts? Maybe the two of you have already hooked up with each other, and have already formed a hidden knot."


    Prince Xian kicked him ruthlessly, "Slut, what nonsense are you spouting?" When he saw Chu Ge, he could not hide the astonishment in his heart, the Chu Family''s Miss was born in a famous clan, and left the capital when she was young. What exactly was the enmity between her and Xi Jiu Er? Aren''t you a good sister?


    Liu Shui walked over and said, "Miss Chu, do you remember how many times you slapped our princess? Why don''t you take a look at yourself? It would be strange if our young master liked you! "Heart like a snake and heart like a scorpion ¡­" Right after she finished speaking, Chu Ge seemed to have gone crazy, and started crying out loud. Unfortunately, Liu Shui used some method to make her limp and lie on the ground motionlessly.


    "Hmph, I''ll let you know in a while what is called the cycle of karma." The wrist that you have shown us princesses, the Servant will come to honor you today. " and Liu Shui then explained some of Chu Ge''s pain, and it was no more because Feng Qing Cheng didn''t like her, but she was still a bitch, what was so unpleasant to hear?


    In fact, she knew that she had always been deceiving herself. She liked Feng Qing Cheng only because he was an extravagant request, but the thing she wanted to do the most was to get rid of him. Now that she had nothing left, she knew that the moment she fell into Xi Jiu Er''s hands, she would definitely not be able to eat anything good.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: What''s the use of telling her all these? Don''t you see how she looks like she wants us to die? What are you all still standing there for? Why aren''t you all waiting on me? Just now, she served us very well. We can''t possibly share it all by ourselves, right? "


    This time, Liu Xiang was too smart. Giving Liu Shui a look, Liu Shui was startled, then followed Liu Xiang''s gaze to look at those shivering mothers. Liu Shui came to a realization. Soon after, the two maidservants started beating up and kicking the mothers. They also returned all the things that the mothers had used on them. Liu Shui was more powerful than Liu Xiang, he could feel pain in his hands after a while, but Liu Shui was still not tired of it. In the end, Liu Xiang found a wooden stick and beat him with it, while saying: "How is it, are you comfortable? Are you feeling comfortable? "I''ll let you beat me up, let you do all these heartless things, and see if we don''t beat you to death today ¡­"


    The old mother s were screaming like they were slaughtering pigs! Hearing this voice, Liu Xiang and Liu Shui fought even harder, causing Chu Ge''s expression to change. Hitting others and being beaten up were two different experiences.


    Those mothers were already screaming for mercy. Liu Xiang and Liu Shui sneered: "Do you think begging is useful? We begged for mercy in the past, but we didn''t let you off! " After she finished speaking, she hit them even more forcefully. If those mothers had been lenient at the time, Liu Xiang and Liu Shui would have returned the favor and definitely would not have fought viciously.


    "We have been wronged ¡­" We... Aiyo, we''re just... This servant ¡­ Spare us, we... Aiya, it hurts ¡­ We''re just following orders... I beg you, stop hitting me, it hurts so much, if this goes on, I''ll die ¡­ "Aiyo ¡­" "So painful ¡­" The cries for mercy, the screams, the whoops were unbearable.


    Liu Xiang and Liu Shui fought to their heart''s content, and after Xi Jiu Er released her anger, she suddenly asked: "Liu Xiang, is your mouth still painful?" Liu Xiang and Liu Shui were startled for a moment, then Liu Xiang was the first to react, "If the princess doesn''t remind Servant, I would have forgotten." After she finished speaking, she used a wooden board and smacked it across the floor. Liu Shui tilted his head and thought for a moment, "I was hit more than twenty times ¡­"


    Liu Xiang was startled: "I''m about the same as you!" Thus, the two of them began to beat about the bush. They didn''t even remember the faces of the pampered mothers, and they were already so swollen that no one could tell what they looked like anymore. After a round of beatings, Liu Xiang was so tired that she was half dead.


    Liu Shui said: "Princess, I didn''t think that beating someone up would take so much effort. What are we going to do about the mothers who have yet to teach them a lesson?" At this time, the guards at Feng Qing Cheng''s side immediately came over to help. The difference between a man and a woman''s strength was like heaven and earth.


    Those mothers had long regretted it so much that their intestines had turned green. When Chu Ge had gone crazy, why didn''t they stop him? Even if she had been a little more careful during the fight, now that everything was back to him! Now, they hated Chu Ge to death. They were all servants who listened to their master''s orders ¡­ A few mothers called out, "Princess, please spare the old servants. This old servant follows orders, it''s not that she''s disrespectful to the princess. Please spare the old servant ¡­" Ah ¡­ "Princess ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er watched indifferently as her mother passed out. Chu Ge was limp at the side. She bit her lips and did not say anything, especially when she saw Prince Xian busily taking care of Xi Jiu Er''s hands. Her eyes were filled with pain, pain that she had never felt before. That''s because of Feng Qing Cheng, Young Noble, did you see that? The woman you like is already with another man...


    Did Xi Jiu Er''s hands hurt? Pain! However, compared to revenge, this little bit of pain was nothing. She stared at Chu Ge as Liu Shui walked over and slapped him on the face with a wooden board. Blood immediately flowed out of the corner of Chu Ge''s mouth and she walked over to her asking, "How many times did Miss Chu slap the princess?"


    When the Prince Xian heard him, he shouted angrily, "Hit him! Hit him to death!"


    Liu Xiang and Liu Shui stood on both sides, it seemed that they were planning on going one on each side! Bba Bba Bba Bba ¡­ Two men, one with each hand, and one with a plank, had to hit it thirty times to make the count. Chu Ge had already lost three teeth, her pretty face was already swollen like a pig''s head.


    Liu Shui took the soft whip and said, "Miss Chu, how do you serve the princess today, Servant will serve you today!" Even if Chu Ge wanted to, she couldn''t faint, so she could only do it in this way. Furthermore, even if she wanted to, she had to have the chance right? After she fainted, someone splashed water on her and accidentally woke her up.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw the two being busy, she did not say anything. She had said before that she would return whatever Chu Ge had given her, and she said that she would do it. Prince Xian watched her expression from the side. She did not speak of her grievances like the other women, nor did she hate like the other women. There was neither joy nor sadness in his eyes. Prince Xian always thought that Xi Jiu Er was attractive, she was always different from other women ¡­

 C213

    Who taught you that?


    Chu Ge was a human, she was not a saint, she did not have a body full of pride, so... She begged for mercy. If she continued like this, she would be beaten to death ¡­


    "Jiu Er, please spare me, spare me ¡­" She had been beaten to the point that her speech became sloppy. The pain was so painful that she wanted to die. She did not know how Xi Jiu Er was able to endure it in the first place. She couldn''t help it.


    Liu Shui sneered: "Spare you? At that time, the Servant was begging them to spare the princess, but they did not show any kind intentions. "


    "Besides, we are serving you seriously. How can we stop now?" Furthermore, could it be that the Miss loathed the two of them from serving the Servant, so they did not want us to serve them? " Liu Shui''s face was filled with fear: It seems that the Servant''s service is not good.


    At this time, Prince Xian suddenly spoke: "She deserved to die, if she dies, just leave it to me."


    "Forget it, forget it." Forget it, forget it. Xi Jiu Er said: "I am only giving her a lesson, if there is a next time, I will definitely not forgive her."


    "Mm, I''ll listen to you." The Prince Xian laughed.


    "Just let her go like this, it''ll be too easy on her. When the time comes, it''ll save her the trouble of raising a tiger." Prince Xian was still wearing his extraordinary red robes. Xi Jiu Er had seen him in red from the first moment, and had not seen him in any other colors.


    "Do you not have extra robes to change into, or do you like red?" Chu Ge was different from Xi Wan Feng and the others. In this life, she had never been intimate with these so-called relatives before. However, Chu Ge was different. It was a pain of being hurt and deceived. It made her want to cry, but there was no way to cry.


    "Don''t you think that my red robe is very pretty?" They formed a circle on the ground, and the Prince Xian laughed very enchantingly. If it was a girl, she would definitely be more beautiful than Xi Wan Rong, much more enchanting than the ex-sister-in-law, and it was a pity that she was a man.


    Sigh, Xi Jiu Er saw that it was about time for him to return, and just as she took a step she returned and asked: "Do you know why the emperor wants my grandfather to enter the palace?"


    "You''re so smart, how could you not guess?" Prince Xian muttered as he looked at the robes left and right, intending to make a new style one day. He did not plan on changing the red color. When he raised his head, Xi Jiu Er had already brought his servant along a path, heh heh.


    Turning his head to stare hatefully at the miserable Chu Ge, he revealed a cold and murderous expression on his face. He turned around and walked in front of Chu Ge at a leisurely pace, "What''s so good about that doctor that you all like her so much?" Xi Jiu Er, the little ingrate, actually wanted to marry him and not me? I''m sure that I was tricked by that guy''s gentleness, I can actually be very gentle too, Xi Jiu Er is really blind.


    "Pfft, how can you compare to his good points?" Chu Ge had always hated this Prince Xian who claimed to be elegant and liked to play coquettishly. This idle prince had done nothing but enjoy playing and strolling in the brothels, how could he compare to the one he liked? It was like the heavens and the earth.


    Chu Ge was unhappy. That man only had her own unique temperament and good skin, she didn''t look like him at all. All of them were blind, especially Xi Jiu Er ¡­ Heh heh, but that''s okay, she will soon be making cooked rice with Xi Jiu Er. The marriage between her and that brat was not known to many, and it also gave him an opportunity. Just thinking about it like this made him feel pretty good. It would be pleasing to the eye to see someone.


    "Hmph, just you wait. If you dare hurt her in the next time, see how I''ll deal with you." From the way he saw it, he was about to get married to Xi Jiu Er. In terms of status, he was her husband.


    Chu Ge spat out a mouthful of blood, thinking that Xi Jiu Er''s fate was good. The reason why Prince Xian appeared here and what Xi Jiu Er was doing was to check whether Xi Wan Feng was alive or dead. Although the edge of the cliff had been washed away by the rain, one could still see some things from the groove on the stone.


    "I''ve already sent people to search the cliff face. If we fall down at this height, it might be lucky, but it will still kill us in the rain." Prince Xian saw Xi Jiu Er standing at the edge of the cliff. After going through Chu Ge''s torture, he looked very miserable, but her appearance was extremely cold. Afraid that something might have happened to her, she immediately grabbed Xi Jiu Er by the waist and retreated a few steps, "Be careful, what happens if she falls down?"


    "Let go." Xi Jiu Er rolled her eyes and struggled out of her grasp a few times.


    Her waist was delicate, as though she had become thinner than before. Prince Xian squeezed his hand, causing Xi Jiu Er''s body to go stiff: "What are you doing?" This fellow was obviously doing it on purpose. If he were to pinch Zhang Xuan''s waist, he would probably be looking for a beating. Without saying anything further, Sisi gave Prince Xian a backhand slap: "Get out of the way, I''m almost married. If you dare touch me again, see how I''ll deal with you."


    Prince Xian covered his face and pursed his lips, slowly releasing Xi Jiu Er, as he felt a little nostalgic for that small waist. He was unhappy that he was clean and proper, and was not unhappy about it. "Stingy, I saved you many times and I was still hugging onto your waist, why didn''t you let me let go?"


    "It''s simply incomprehensible." What was this compared to? Wasn''t the current situation the same as the previous time? Xi Jiu Er didn''t quite understand what was going on in the Prince Xian at all.


    Prince Xian turned a deaf ear and said, "This Xi Wan Feng has done all sorts of bad things, even the heavens cannot bear to come and take care of her."


    "If I didn''t see her body, I wouldn''t believe she was dead. There are many things in the world that are possible." Xi Jiu Er turned around and backed away from the cliff, her voice slightly raised, "Your Highness, just pretend that you don''t know anything about today''s matter."


    "Ah?" "What is it?" Prince Xian smiled widely, "How about you give me a reminder?"


    The embroidered shoes suddenly stopped. This Prince Xian was becoming more and more shameless, thinking back to the quiet beautiful man that Xi Wan Feng had drugged, she started to miss him a little ¡­ Suddenly turning around, Xi Jiu Er gave a captivating smile that was extremely touching, especially his tender skin that looked like an infant''s. Prince Xian raised his eyebrows and immediately ran over.


    "Aooo ¡­" A wolf-like howl that shook the sky and earth followed after: "You actually used such a despicable method ¡­" Aoo ¡­


    "Who taught you this, I''ll beat him to death ¡­" "Ouch ¡­"


    "Hmph, let me teach you a lesson. Let''s see if you still behave!" Liu Shui, Liu Xiang, let''s go. " Xi Jiu Er had learnt this from Liu Shui, who had taught her some self-defense skills. In Liu Shui''s words, he had to be ruthless, accurate and fast. Don''t you dare let someone who was quick to react get his legs between your legs...

    "You can still bear to come back, hmph." Wei Guogong looked at the crescent moon in the sky and weighed the wine in the jug in her hand. As if she was an angry child, she turned her head and gulped a large mouthful of water. She could not help but take a peek at Xi Jiu Er.


    So Xi Jiu Er had taken out a jar of wine from behind him. Wei Guogong felt that the wine in her mouth had become tasteless. With a ''bang'', a sweet and mellow wine fragrance wafted out, and Wei Guogong had been drinking for a long time, hence the amount of wine she drank was simply too many to count. Just by smelling the wine, one would feel that it was rich and fragrant, not to mention the delicious taste of it. This wine did not taste like the wine from the past, and one did not know where this girl had gotten her hands on it.


    "Grandfather, don''t be angry at Jiu Er. Jiu Er went to look into Xi Wan Feng''s matter today, and when she heard that there was a newly opened winery that was not bad, she bought a jar of wine for you to taste." Xi Jiu Er fawned over him. Her ten fingers were wrapped in white cloth and Wei Guogong was not blind.


    "I poked it when I was embroidering ¡­" She smiled in embarrassment.


    Tsk tsk, the Wei Guogong smacked her lips as she ridiculed, "You sure are capable." Xi Jiu Er automatically ignored the weird voice, and poured a cup for the Wei Guogong that was sitting opposite of him. She didn''t know if she managed to brew it in the middle of the space, so she didn''t know if it was successful or not. Even if she didn''t brew much, it would only be one jar, and after a while, she forgot about it.


    "Grandpa, have a drink. How does it taste?" "You don''t know that the boss said his wine is great, better than any wine in the world. He said that if he drinks it, he won''t even remember who his parents are." As expected, the Wei Guogong pouted and disdained the words of the owner: "I''ve even drunk a drop of wine that''s worth gold, could it be that it''s even better than that? "What a joke, bring it to me. If it doesn''t taste good, I''ll smash his signboard tomorrow and see how he will deceive me."


    "That''s right, that''s right." Xi Jiu Er agreed.


    How could Wei Guogong withstand the temptation of smacking her lips? "Shriek ~ ~ ~" Wei Guogong squinted her eyes and smacked her lips, her expression extremely satisfied and cheerful. After a long while, she shouted, "Good wine, good wine."


    "Since grandfather said it was good wine, then it must be good wine." Xi Jiu Er fawningly said, "Then Grandfather shouldn''t be angry at Jiu Er."


    "Hmph, let''s return one yard after another. Don''t get confused." Wei Guogong scolded him with a darkened face: "Look at you, you''re about to get married. Why are you not staying in the house and running around?" The most important thing was that he did not see Xi Jiu Er when he returned. He did not say a single word of concern or greetings to Xi Jiu Er, and just slowly grinded away the entire day''s worth of work that he had held in.


    "Yes, Jiu Er knows his wrongs, and will not do it again." Xi Jiu Er stood up and said seriously.


    The Wei Guogong looked at her coolly. Xi Jiu Er took the opportunity to run over and act spoiled: "Grandfather, don''t be angry at Jiu Er. Jiu Er knows her wrongs, okay ¡­." The girl wrapped around her arm was as innocent as a child. She rarely acted like a spoiled child, and once she acted like a spoiled child, she would lose her principles.


    "Alright, alright, for the sake of that jar of wine, I''ll listen to you." Wei Guogong pretended to be helpless, but her smile overflowed.


    "Grandfather is the best." Xi Jiu Er was as happy as a bird, Wei Guogong couldn''t help but feel sad. She didn''t know if she was dead or alive, and hoped that the heavens would protect him and let him return safely. He still wanted to see her great-grandson. She planned to hold a grand wedding for Xi Jiu Er when he comes back ¡­


    In the study room, Xi Jiu Er slapped the table and stood up, her face was filled with anger: "Is there no one left in my sect who can lead troops to war? Are all the military generals who receive the country''s salary going to eat shit? "


    "Jiu Er!" Wei Guogong shouted, "Don''t speak nonsense."


    "What kind of nonsense are you talking about? "How am I wrong? Grandfather, you are already old, and they still want you to go? Isn''t this enough to show that the generals eat shit?" Xi Jiu Er was so angry that when she heard Wei Guogong talk about everything that happened in the day, she became angry and wished that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge could immediately change his mind.


    "will also go with me." The Wei Guogong said indifferently.


    Shi Chen Wen? Qing Ran''s fiance? From the looks of it, this marriage wasn''t going to happen. Xi Jiu Er''s expression softened, and said: "This is good, at least that bunch of old fogeys will find some conscience and find some helpers to follow. They also have someone to take care of them along the way."


    "Ugh ¡­" He better not tell Jiu Er the truth, this Shi Chen Wen was someone he insisted on coming.


    Xi Jiu Er''s anger had dissipated by quite a bit as she sat down and asked in a serious tone. Her attitude had not changed at all just because the other party was her grandfather.


    To tell the truth or to lie? To tell the truth, he was afraid that his granddaughter would be hurt. Speak lies, and you will be hurt. Forget it, you will be sad. Just as he was about to speak and hear Xi Jiu Er''s cold voice, he said, "Grandfather, I want to hear the truth. I''m strong, what haven''t I experienced before?" They had already experienced rebirth, what was this worth?


    "Only thirty percent." Wei Guogong sighed, "The return date is uncertain."


    Xi Jiu Er was as calm as water, she had a thirty percent certainty of being able to... Her mind raced as she wondered if she could help in any way. Wei Guogong could not help but admire this girl''s patience. After thinking for a while, she said, "Without the bridge, we can only build our own boats to cross the river. Building ships is not a small expense, they are war ships and are not normal ships. Now that the treasury was nervous, she didn''t know how much money she could take out ¡­ She still had manpower. If the soldiers were injured, they at least had some life left. If she wore it or fell into Tranquil River ¡­ Then it would be gone ¡­ When we were fighting, we didn''t even know about the other party''s situation. We could only blindly look around, but they had occupied the high ground, so killing us would be as easy as flipping our hand. " This thirty percent was already his best plan.


    Hearing her say that the war was not as difficult as it seems, Xi Jiu Er frowned: "Isn''t there still a thirty percent chance? We won''t lose for sure. "


    "Yes." Wei Guogong swept away the gloom in her heart and also started laughing, "Your grandfather had taken off his armor for many years, putting on his battle armor once again so that he could kill all of them. Let me show you how heroic Grandpa was back then, hmph! "


    "Great, grandpa is definitely going to be a match for you. Maybe the moment they heard your name, they were already scared out of their wits and ran away." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "One by one, they jumped into the river and killed themselves, hahaha..."


    "Little girl, your way of thinking is truly strange." Wei Guogong was also not amused. "After I leave, your mission is to quickly give me a great-grandson."


    "Grandfather ¡­" You, you are disrespectful to your elders. " Xi Jiu Er blushed, it was really embarrassing to be teased like that by her elders.

 C215

    There was still a day before the wedding, so it was impossible for Xi Jiu Er to not be nervous. Although there wasn''t any complicated ceremony, she lived under the same roof as a man, and they had intimate contact. Xi Jiu Er even had children, so she was very nervous just thinking about it.


    When the ex-sister-in-law arrived, smiling, Liu Xiang was busy arranging things for Xi Jiu Er. Not a single piece of clothing or jewellery could be left behind, while Liu Shui was busy carrying out heavy tasks, allowing Liu Xiang to direct them. Seeing that the ex-sister-in-law had arrived, everyone stopped what they were doing and revealed smiles.


    "Princess, I''ve come to congratulate you." ex-sister-in-law had a cloth bag on her wrist. She first bowed to Xi Jiu Er before opening the bag, but didn''t expect that the unremarkable bag would actually contain a set of wedding clothes inlaid with countless pearls. Each and every one of them were high quality, causing others to be amazed and not be able to let go of their surprise.


    "Wa ¡ª so beautiful ¡­" ex-sister-in-law, did you do it? "What a coincidence." Liu Xiang quickly wiped her hands and carefully took out the bridal dress. The golden embroidery was extremely lifelike, and the pearls that were inlaid did not have any traces of being inlaid, as if they had grown out. If one were to look closely at the embroidery, one would be able to see that the thread was well hidden. It was as if a phoenix was about to jump out. It was as if it was being reborn from the flames of rebirth on the red bridal dress. Liu Xiang shook it out for Xi Jiu Er to compare.


    "I have 999 pearls on it ¡­" Liu Shui came over from ex-sister-in-law''s side: "You must have spent a lot of silver."


    ex-sister-in-law laughed, "It''s not necessarily a good thing if you look too hard on someone."


    "You''re wrong. This silver can buy delicious food, but it''s not as big as eating food." Liu Shui did not agree, and instead laughed with his, "Three emergencies for a person is more important than having a meal ¡­"


    "Alright, then don''t eat anymore in the future, just go straight to the latrine ¡­" Liu Shui asked dumbly.


    "Puff ¡­"


    "Hahaha ¡­"


    "Haha ¡­"


    "Alright, Princess heard it right? In the future, don''t give her any food. Just rush to the latrine and everything will be settled." Liu Xiang folded her robes and smiled until tears almost fell from her eyes. This Liu Shui was really easy to fool.


    Liu Shui pursed his lips, as if he did not care and changed the topic: "ex-sister-in-law, do you have a phoenix coronet?"


    "I don''t have the time to do this ¡­" ex-sister-in-law looked at Xi Jiu Er apologetically. Xi Jiu Er was already very satisfied, ex-sister-in-law had given her a very big surprise.


    "It''s already very good. ex-sister-in-law thanks you for your marriage." Xi Jiu Er''s eyes reddened. She had lost her mother at a young age and did not receive any affection from the Xi Family. Fortunately, Liu Xiang had helped her warm up, and they had met again after that ¡­ Although she was a servant in name, she was no different from her family.


    ex-sister-in-law had never seen Jiu Er cry before, she felt that it was really worth it to stay up all night to make this wedding dress for her. She thought about the Master and servant that had been together for a few years and found it hard to hide her sobs, she quickly took out her kernels and said: "You two go out first, I have something to say to the princess in private."


    "Dong ¡ª" ex-sister-in-law suddenly knelt in front of Xi Jiu Er and said, "Princess, we shall part ways here ¡­"


    "ex-sister-in-law, you, you ¡­"


    The warm and comfortable sunlight outside made people comfortable. Xi Jiu Er sat under the sunlight and rubbed her bridal veil non-stop, looking disappointed and frustrated. It caused Liu Xiang and Liu Shui to turn their heads back frequently. They didn''t know what the ex-sister-in-law had said to the princess that caused the princess to be so distracted that her expression was completely blank.


    "Jiu Er!" A delicate voice came out, with a bang, the door was pushed open, it was the angry Yun Qing Ran! Without saying a word, she sat in front of Xi Jiu Er, staring at the wedding with a face full of sadness: "Are we friends or not, if you want to get married, I actually don''t know ¡­ No, you secretly got married! "


    Xi Jiu Er never thought that Yun Qing Ran would know about this matter, and immediately calmed her emotions: "I want to tell you too, but you should know the situation right now. If I were to get married again after seeing what happened to Xi Family, who knows how other people would arrange things for me. It''s better to keep a low profile and wait for the limelight to wear off before setting out. "


    "Then let''s just wait for the limelight to subside." Yun Qing Ran was the direct descendant of the Yun Family, how could they not understand the logic behind everyone''s words? In the past, when compared to Yun Qing, she was ridiculed and said that she couldn''t even compare to a concubinage, now that she was going to marry Shi Chen Wen, those noble Miss s all said that they were going to marry a monkey, it was truly hateful.


    "Grandfather has always wanted me to marry him. He is my elder, my only family, so how can I be disobedient?" Xi Jiu Er laughed helplessly, seeing that Yun Qing Ran''s expression was also a little unnatural when he mentioned the Wei Guogong, he thought that it was because of his marriage with Shi Chen Wen.


    "Jiu Er... "There''s one thing I want to ask of you ¡­" Yun Qing Ran found it difficult to speak, and she awkwardly did not dare to look at Xi Jiu Er.


    "What is it?"


    "That''s right ¡­" "That''s right ¡­" Yun Qing Ran, who had always been carefree in front of Xi Jiu Er, was extremely embarrassed. "Can you ask Prince Fu to go beg His Majesty?


    "This... Sacred will is not something that grandfather can control. " Xi Jiu Er felt very helpless.


    Yun Qing Ran said anxiously, "It was Prince Fu who asked Shi Chen Wen to follow them ¡­ If Prince Fu wanted to change his identity, he would definitely be ¡­


    "No problem."


    Was it requested by my grandfather? Xi Jiu Er felt that this question was tangled up in his heart, and in the end, he shook his head: "Qing Ran, I cannot help you. Grandfather said that we only have a thirty percent chance of winning the battle. You are as selfish as I am. "


    Yun Qing Ran''s tears rolled down her face as she held the kernels in her hands and asked herself, "Is it really possible that we can only let it go? Couldn''t someone else? Wei Guogong is so capable, he can go by herself. "


    Xi Jiu Er squinted her eyes, it looked like Yun Qing Ran liked Shi Chen Wen a lot, and everyone was very selfish ¡­ She only said lightly, "What you want to ask is exactly what I want to know. My grandfather is wounded all over and is already sixty-five years old ¡­ If you still want to fight with soldiers, this kind of thing can make a young and capable soldier like Shi Chen Wen go. Why must my grandfather lead the troops? "


    Her grandfather was her only family, and she would not allow anyone to harm her, not even in words. Friends... Today, it seemed that Yun Qing Ran had changed a lot. The young girl would still think of her friend when she was with Chun Cheng''s family. His heart gradually became depressed ¡­ All of them were about to leave her ¡­


    "Jiu Er, I, that is not what I meant ¡­" Yun Qing Ran was so embarrassed that she didn''t know what to say. Her little face was flushed red, and she looked completely like a little girl.


    "I know you don''t mean that, I understand." Yun Qing Ran was a good girl, she hoped that she would always be able to be carefree, then she would feel gratified.

 C216

    "Jiu Er, I didn''t prepare anything when I came here. It''s been ten years since this bracelet has been worn by the mother. Yun Qing Ran rolled up her sleeves to reveal the flawless bracelet on his wrist. The bracelet was the size of Yun Qing Ran''s wrist, and it took a lot of effort to remove it.


    "Jiu Er... "Here you are." Yun Qing Ran passed the bracelet to Jiu Er with a tear-stained face and said with a smile: "Jiu Er, you must be happy."


    "..." Good... I will try to make myself happy. " Xi Jiu Er took the bracelet, and the temperature of Yun Qing Ran''s words still remained. Yun Qing Ran had a happy smile on her face when she left, the worry in her eyes caused his smile to become overcast.


    Chu Ge dragged sher long skirt under the moonlight with a sorrowful look on her face. She was unable to deal with the disaster that was Xi Jiu Er, but she didn''t know how her master would treat her if he knew ¡­ He felt both fear and hatred in his heart. He hated the fact that the Prince Xian being the hero and saving the beauty had caused everything to fail, he was afraid that Feng Qing Cheng would not know how to deal with him.


    "Creaak." The door opened and Chu Ge shouted, "Who allowed you guys to come in?


    "Yo, Miss Chu''s temper is really big." The woman''s voice that was yet not a smile suddenly rang out. Chu Ge immediately shouted: "Who is it?"


    With a clatter, a woman''s face slowly appeared in Chu Ge''s line of sight under the moonlight. Wasn''t it the ''dead'' Xi Wan Feng? Chu Ge felt a chill down her spine: "Didn''t you die?"


    "My life should not end here ¡­" Xi Wan Feng revealed his white teeth.


    "Is that so? You sure are lucky. " Chu Ge sneered. She did not know if the people outside were alive or dead, but this Xi Wan Feng was truly capable. She quietly came to his room ¡­ No wonder Xi Jiu Er was so afraid of her.


    "Hey, Miss Chu, what''s wrong with your face? Did he get beaten up by someone? Oh, what a pitiful person. Who would be so heartless as to make a move? Look at his delicate face, it''s actually ruined ¡­ "Too bad, too bad ¡­" Xi Wan Feng seemed to know something and said with a face of schadenfreude. Chu Ge did not dare to provoke him now as she said with a cold face: "This is not something you need to worry about."


    "Why isn''t it something I''m worried about? It has a lot to do with me... We all have one common enemy, Xi Jiu Er. We all want her to die without a burial ground, and as long as we join hands, we can definitely kill her ¡­ " Xi Wan Feng seemed to have used a lot of effort to utter the three words "Xi Jiu Er".


    "I don''t know what you''re talking about." Chu Ge''s heart jumped, she pretended that she could not understand what the other party was saying and ordered him to leave: "You should quickly go to sleep in the middle of the night."


    "I almost succeeded, who would have thought that the Prince Xian would come out to save the beauty like a hero? Is it a pity? " Xi Wan Feng''s tone was even gentler, but her expression was even more ferocious like a female ghost.


    "..." I don''t know what you''re talking about. " Chu Ge said with an expressionless face.


    When the empress dowager was ill, the imperial physician was helpless against it. In the end, everyone thought of the heart-nourishing hall and heard that the medicine inside had a miraculous effect of resurrecting the dead. It might be helpful to the empress dowager''s illness.


    "What are all of you standing there in a daze for? Get the boss here! " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was furious.


    The empress dowager lay on the bed, breathing in and out less. Her noble and graceful face had a tinge of green to it as she softly replied, "Wailing Home is fine. The emperor doesn''t need to wait for a few more days. Let the imperial doctors go, there''s no need to invite the boss of heart-nourishing hall. "


    "Muhou ¡­" Let the owner of heart-nourishing hall come over and take a look. I am relieved that mother is safe ¡­ " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge walked forward and gently held the empress dowager''s hand.


    "Is the Wailing Home''s body strong enough? is tired and needs to rest. Since the Emperor is busy with official business, let''s go! " The empress dowager looked exhausted. She turned her head away and closed her eyes, as if she really wanted to sleep.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge looked at her and did not say anything further. He urged the palace maids and eunuchs to look carefully at his surroundings.


    After Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge left, the empress dowager''s personal maid, A Qing, took out an exquisite box from inside the box and opened it to take out two black pills.


    The empress dowager''s expression eased a lot after taking the medicine. This illness of hers had developed not long after she had entered the palace. It had been almost twenty years now, and it was all thanks to that woman. Every time he thought of that woman, the hatred in his heart would surge.


    "Esteemed Empress Dowager, it''s already been so many years. Don''t bring her up again, lest you hurt your own body." A Qing went over to pinch the empress dowager''s leg.


    The Empress dowager gave a cold snort and said no more. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did you find out why the Emperor suddenly executed Xi Family?"


    A Qing shook her head, "The emperor has sealed off the news, there''s no way to find out about this at all."


    The Empress was silent? He vaguely felt that this matter was somewhat unusual.


    heart-nourishing hall was quietly sitting on the second floor of the restaurant. Her expression was so calm that she looked like a dead person, and didn''t move at all as if she was waiting for something.


    This girl was the person ex-sister-in-law was waiting for. She was a palace maid in the empress dowager''s palace, a well-behaved and sensible person, so A Qing liked her a lot. Her family also had an old mother who was bedridden and relied on her money to save lives.


    What came to buy were still the sets of medicine, and just as he was about to leave, he was called over by the ex-sister-in-law, "Young lady, please wait!"


    The young lady turned her head and saw that it was the owner of the heart-nourishing hall. She politely asked, "What business do you have with me?"


    ex-sister-in-law looked hesitant, unsure of whether she should tell her or not. She wanted to speak but hesitated, "Please come in and have a chat with me."


    Without a doubt, the young girl followed behind ex-sister-in-law into the inner hall.


    "You can say it now!" The young girl said.


    "Actually, it''s nothing much. I just want to borrow your life for a bit." After ex-sister-in-law finished speaking, she knocked the young girl unconscious without any warning. The young girl fell to the ground with a thud, and a large pool of blood flowed out from beneath her head.


    Sister-in-law Qian was very calm. She started to clean up the body and the crime scene. After packing up, she entered the room and sat in front of the dressing table. Next to the dresser was a clean face, the face of the palace maid from a moment ago.


    ex-sister-in-law stared closely at the girl in the bronze mirror. A man had once said that this was his most beloved face, and he drew his eyebrows and lips for her every day, gently caressing her cheeks ¡­ Those were the best memories of his life.


    He held the dagger in his hand and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the hatred in them was like a fog that could not be dissipated.


    The dagger fell down, leaving behind numerous cuts on his smooth and smooth face. His skin and flesh were badly mutilated.


    When the palace doors were locked, she had already returned to the empress dowager''s side to serve. A Qing felt that the girl in front of him was a little strange, but she couldn''t pinpoint where she was.


    "The empress dowager has suffered from her old illness again, so you have to be more careful." A Qing said.


    "Yes." ex-sister-in-law replied obediently like the girl''s voice.


    "What happened to your throat?" A Qing asked.


    "It''s nothing much, I think he''s sick!" Sister-in-law Qian said in a muffled voice.

 C217

    "Then you have to be careful. You can''t make the empress dowager sick. Today, the emperor took a big dose of ventilation for the empress dowager''s illness." A Qing was hesitating on whether or not she should go on duty.


    "Don''t worry, mother A Qing. I will definitely be careful."


    A Qing thought that since this girl was a dependable person, there wouldn''t be any problems, so she left after giving a few words of advice.


    There were a total of four people on duty. ex-sister-in-law and the other girl served closely together while the other two waited on the outside.


    "I''m so sleepy, Sister Linglong ¡­" The palace maid felt sleepy all of a sudden, and said sleepily as he rubbed his eyes.


    "If you''re tired, then go to sleep. I don''t need to worry about you here."


    That palace maid was a bit embarrassed. Fortunately, they had a good relationship, so he did not think too much about it. He then said: "Then I''ll be troubling you, Sister Ling. I''m going to take a nap, so please call for me."


    "Go to sleep!" The palace maid did not notice that the person beside his was different. It was difficult to resist the sleepiness.


    ex-sister-in-law slowly walked in front of the censer and opened the censer that was shrouded in smoke. She took out a piece of paper from her pocket and poured the white powder inside into the censer. A light fragrance immediately came from the censer. If one didn''t pay attention, they wouldn''t be able to smell it.


    After the time it took to make a cup of tea, when she confirmed that everyone else was unconscious, she took out two pills. One for herself, and the other for the empress dowager''s mouth.


    The ex-sister-in-law found a short stool and sat by the side of the bed, waiting for the empress dowager to wake up. It didn''t take long for the empress dowager to slowly wake up.


    The empress dowager slowly opened her eyes. Suddenly, a woman''s voice sounded by her ear: "Esteemed Empress Dowager, you''re awake?"


    "Linglong?" Under the candlelight, he found a young girl sitting beside his bed. She was dressed in palace attire as she sat boldly on the edge of his bed. When he took a closer look, he realized that it was the palace maid that served him.


    No, she was not Linglong. Although the two had the same face, their auras were completely different. This woman was sitting down in a dignified manner, appearing to be a lady from a noble family. The cold smile on her lips gave the empress dowager a bad feeling. She turned around and saw a palace maid lying on a bed by the side, completely motionless.


    He truly had the guts to openly sit in front of me. The empress dowager instantly changed your mood and asked lightly, "Who are you?"


    "A widow whose husband you killed." The voice of the ex-sister-in-law was very cold, and under the candlelight, her face was extremely terrifying.


    The empress dowager had struggled in the palace all her life. What had she not experienced? She fearlessly looked at ex-sister-in-law and ridiculed: "So that means you''re here for revenge?"


    Seeing that the empress dowager''s palace didn''t place any importance on her, she mocked, "You''re the supreme empress dowager right now. You seem to have forgotten all that deception. Your surroundings have been quiet for too long, that''s why you relaxed and gave me a chance."


    "What big words you have there." Her Majesty said lightly.


    ex-sister-in-law calmly said: "I was just speaking the truth. I am currently wearing a human skin mask, maybe you have already forgotten my face, so I believe you will remember my name, Yan Mei."


    Yan Mei? The empress dowager kept thinking of this name, while the ex-sister-in-law sat quietly by her side.


    "So it''s you." The empress dowager''s eyes opened. It was her! Back then, the late emperor had slightly subdued his private visit and had always thought of one person in his heart upon returning. After many years, the empress dowager roughly understood something and asked the late emperor''s personal eunuch before finding out. In her heart, she had fallen in love with a married woman, so she couldn''t forget about her.


    This was not the first time this had happened, and Her Majesty did not take it to heart. It was only a woman from the countryside, and she would soon forget about it.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, Emperor Xian did not forget about it along with the passage of time. The Empress Mother saw in her eyes that jealousy was in her heart and that the greater good was in the end, so she sent men to kill the woman''s husband and to have the woman taken into the palace.


    From beginning to end, the late emperor didn''t know about this matter.


    Who would have thought? After the woman''s husband died, she jumped into the river and killed herself. The empress dowager was flabbergasted. There were actually people who could sacrifice their lives for glory and wealth? The empress dowager couldn''t help but be curious about the woman. She only found out that she was called Yanmei and that she was a very beautiful person. The empress dowager was also a woman. She asked the eunuch who was the most beautiful when it came to comparing the two. Tell the truth.


    The eunuch said: Of course the Esteemed Empress Dowager is the most beautiful. Her Majesty saw from what the eunuch said that the woman must be a beautiful woman.


    "I never thought that after so many years, you would still be alive, and even plan to enter the palace to murder Wailing Home." Her Majesty was surprised.


    "When my husband died, I swore I would kill him no matter what." The hatred in ex-sister-in-law''s eyes suddenly surged. For so many years, it was all due to revenge supporting her, "Only then can we work together and you have destroyed everything I have. Today, I must send you to the Road to River Styx and give him an explanation."


    When the empress dowager heard that she was going to take her own life, she couldn''t help but panic. It was just as she had said just now: she had lost all her opponents over the years, so she put down her guard and gave the others a chance. Do you think you can kill me? If you kill me, you can forget about leaving this place alive. "


    "I did not intend to leave this place alive." ex-sister-in-law said indifferently: "I will only be at ease if I personally see you die."


    "You are too confident, you think that there is no way out for Wailing Home?" As she spoke, her hand moved to touch the bell at the side, but she found herself powerless.


    The empress dowager was a little flustered. There must be someone working with her, and she was hoping that someone would find out in time.


    What surprised the empress dowager was that Yan Mei''er didn''t do anything. She just quietly sat by the bed and stared at her, as if she was waiting for something.


    This set up took a long time. From the moment Xi Jiu Er met the empress dowager, she had started scheming. It could be said that even earlier, Xi Jiu Er had discovered a very familiar figure after entering the palace.


    The empress dowager naturally didn''t know that all of this was the work of a small direct daughter, but how could she have known that the number of times Xi Jiu Er had entered the palace could be counted on one hand? She had already determined that Yan Mei''er was definitely in cahoots with the people in the palace. Otherwise, how could she have entered her own bedroom without any obstructions?


    Who is it? Who is it?


    What was he waiting for? He really couldn''t understand ex-sister-in-law''s actions. It was only when she started to feel a faint pain in her stomach that he discovered that she had already begun to move. The pain in his stomach was unbearable, yet he didn''t even have the strength to turn his body over. "Someone come, someone come quickly!" The sound was inaudible like mosquitoes and flies, not to mention the empty bedroom!


    The pain in her stomach gradually intensified as beads of perspiration trickled down her forehead. The empress dowager felt as if millions of ants were gnawing at her stomach. How could the empress dowager be accustomed to such pain?


    "You, what did you feed me? Poison? " Her Majesty endured the pain and asked, hoping that someone would notice that something was wrong. In the past, there would always be people coming in and waiting on him, it was probably because of his old problem today, A Qing probably got his people to leave.


    "In less than a quarter of an hour, you''ll die from the pain. The imperial physician won''t be able to find a problem with it. You''re the empress dowager, so even if you die, you''ll still have to act decently." The ex-sister-in-law said indifferently.

 C218

    The empress dowager had never thought that she would be honored for her entire life, but in the end it turned out to be in the hands of a woman. What a joke!


    It wasn''t long before the empress dowager''s sleeping clothes were soaked. It was as if she''d been fished out of water. Her extremely well-maintained face twisted as she tried her best to endure the immense pain.


    "Everyone... Is Wailing Home... "Wrong, you..." Just as it was ¡­ Forgive me, Wailing Home. Will... Make up for it... Yours, what do you want... Even though... Talk to Wailing Home about it ¡­ " Her Majesty spoke in a broken sentence as if she had expended all her strength. No matter if he was truly admitting his mistake or just faking it, the ex-sister-in-law would not let go even a little.


    Moreover, she wasn''t an idiot.


    "Beg..." "Please ¡­" Her Majesty was in so much pain that her tears and snot ran down her face. She was in a desperate struggle, and right now, she was not the Empress Dowager. She was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.


    ex-sister-in-law quietly watched as the empress dowager made her final struggle. Her body spasmed for a moment before she stopped moving.


    Who would have thought that the present Empress Dowager would end up in pain? Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from outside, it was A Qing''s voice. "Wake up, don''t sleep."


    A Qing shook for a long time, but still did not wake up, as if she had fainted. Her heart cried out the worst, she immediately turned around and shouted: "Someone come ~ ~ ~"


    He pushed open the door to the bedroom. There was nothing out of the ordinary. The two maids were lying on the bed, looking unconscious. When he saw that the empress dowager''s back was facing the crowd on the bed, A Qing heaved a sigh of relief and whispered, "Esteemed Empress Dowager?"


    No one answered. A Qing had a bad premonition, her legs wouldn''t move, so she didn''t dare to go forward to check. Finally, she mustered the courage to step forward and roll over the empress dowager''s body.


    "AHH!"


    The empress dowager''s empty eyes were wide open with a savage expression, as if she was unwilling to give up. A Qing couldn''t believe that the empress dowager was actually dead.


    "Wake them up." Ah Qing trembled. Even if the empress dowager was dead, she wouldn''t be able to live.


    would be notified of this matter soon, at the same time, he sealed off all news of them.


    A Qing had followed the empress dowager for many years and naturally learned a lot of the empress dowager''s skills and wrist. A Qing anxiously waited for the Emperor''s arrival. However, dying was not scary for her, she had already been like a sister to the old empress dowager for more than ten years, she had to go with her.


    But before she dies, she must find the murderer and avenge the Empress. The emperor rushed over very quickly. He saw with his own eyes that the empress dowager was already dead. He was immediately filled with grief and indignation. "Who, who killed my mother?"


    A Qing said: "Your majesty, it is all Servant''s fault, it was Servant''s momentary negligence that allowed the culprit to take advantage of us."


    The relationship between the emperor and the empress dowager was not as intimate as it appeared to be. It was just an act. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was silent for a moment, then said: "Investigate for us, we must find the culprit."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was extremely furious. He was not angry that the murderer killed the empress dowager, but was instead angry that the murderer dared to commit murder in the imperial palace. How could he tolerate being called zodiac?


    "They are the ones the Emperor is on night duty with." A Qing said.


    Xuanyuan Po angrily glared at them, scaring them into silence and rendering them unable to breathe.


    "The Emperor doesn''t know anything!" She was a palace maid that was in charge of waiting on the outside world. She had already slept for the entire night on duty, so how could she have thought that something so big had happened?


    "Your majesty, the Servant doesn''t know anything. I beg your majesty, please spare the Servant!" The palace maids who were also serving outside trembled in fear.


    "Your majesty is enlightened."


    "Your majesty is enlightened."


    The two palace maids in the room spoke at the same time. In this matter, whether it was being an outsider or an insider, they all had an unavoidable responsibility. If the empress dowager died, they would definitely be buried with her.


    "Pull them down for me." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said impatiently. At that moment the coroner arrived, and there was a feeling of helplessness at the sight of the Empress Dowager''s body. The empress dowager''s status was high, so how could a man like him dare to touch her?


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge stared at the coroner coldly. "Investigate carefully for This Emperor. We must find out the cause of the empress dowager''s death."


    "Yes."


    "I''ll leave those palace maids to you." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said to the man behind him, he and Eunuch Hai were both Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s trusted aides and interrogators, so they did not have any official positions, and were just like the shadows beside Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, which could be seen everywhere.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge quietly sat at the outer hall. He guessed that the man was here for the Imperial Jade Seal? Maybe not.


    It was soon morning when the coroner finally found out that the empress dowager was poisoned. This poison had already been in her body for at least half a month, but it had only appeared today.


    At least half a month? It seemed like this matter had been planned for a long time.


    The coroner was silent for a moment. "Your majesty, this old subject feels that the empress dowager''s poison is a little strange ¡­"


    The night was as cool as water, and the stars that filled the sky were like dazzling pearls, like stars that scattered down. Wei Guogong''s eyes were slightly moist, and were slightly choked with sobs: "You have chosen this road yourself, no matter what, you have to walk down it yourself. Grandfather is not by your side, if that brat bullies you, then you can bully him back, if there''s anything that you want to do Grandfather can help you carry it, understand?"


    "Yes." Hiding in her family''s embrace, Xi Jiu Er felt incomparably happy and satisfied. With her grandfather''s blessings, she believed that no matter what choice she would experience in the future, she would firmly walk forward. The sedan chair outside was just like any other soft sedan chair, Xi Jiu Er got into it, the sedan chair''s body slightly swayed.


    "Get up ¡­" Liu Xiang shouted.


    The house that Feng Qing Cheng bought wasn''t far away, it only took around a few minutes to arrive. On the way, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was unusually quiet and long. She held a bright red apple in her hand. It was given to her by the Wei Guogong, and she said that it was the symbol of a peaceful and peaceful life.


    "Princess, we''ve arrived." Liu Xiang said softly, the carriage landed on the floor and the curtains became empty, Xi Jiu Er knew that she could no longer sit, and walked out of the carriage with the words'' Feng Residence ''written on it. In front of the door hung a red lantern, and with a creak, the door opened.


    Swish swish swish. Twenty servants stood in two rows holding lanterns with the word ''red'' written on them, waiting respectfully. Liu Xiang and Liu Shui then revealed a trace of smile, and supported Xi Jiu Er by her elbows as they entered the door.


    Compared to the chilly residence outside, the place was bustling with noise and excitement. There were red calligraphy words stuck to the brightly lit lamps, red silk hung everywhere, and even silk wrapped around the pillars under the eaves of the trees ¡­ Xi Jiu Er was very surprised. She thought that what welcomed her was still that ice-cold old house. He was slightly moved in his heart. The house was not very big, and the strangeness made Xi Jiu Er''s legs float. So it turned out that deep down in her heart, she was the same as all the other girls who yearned for a wedding. There were lively scenes, guests'' blessings, songs and dances ¡­ Walking into the main hall, he had already paid a visit to the Heaven and Earth Duck Fruit. The couplet had also been pasted.


    "Madame, Young Master said she will bow down to heaven and earth ¡­" An old woman came over smiling.

 C219

    Xi Jiu Er did not have a head covering, and was only dressed in bridal clothing. Liu Xiang would do anything to help her draw the makeup of a bride. Her facial features were like a painting, her tender lips were captivating red, and her cheeks were glowing ¡­ The beauty under the candlelight was unfathomable. The old granny was stunned by her beauty, looking at her expensive wedding dress and her noble imposing manner, she was extremely respectful as she bowed to Xi Jiu Er.


    "Where is he?" His voice was slightly hoarse due to the nervousness.


    "Cough ¡ª ¡ª" The pearl curtain at the side was raised, and a man wearing a mask walked in. He looked nervous and a little uneasy.


    The old granny quickly said, "Young Master was poisoned while picking the herbs, and his face is swollen. He wiped the sweat off his forehead. With a glance, he could tell that Madame was a person''s spiritual body, how could he be fooled? Xi Jiu Er frowned slightly. She seemed to be concerned about her after taking a few steps, but she was actually sniffing with her nose.


    It was the smell of Xiao Feng''s body. She was relieved.


    "Are you alright?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    "I''m fine." Her voice was calm and cold.


    Xi Jiu Er thought that she was overthinking things. Why was this Xiao Feng''s voice so wrong? Before she could understand what was going on, she had already stuffed something into her hand. It was Lian Li Ji, the item used to pay respects.


    Madame arrived in time. The old woman cleared her throat and shouted, "First bow to the heaven and earth!"


    "Second bow ¡ª ¡ª"


    "Husband and wife bow to each other!"


    "It''s a gift." The old granny spoke as if she was in a rush, after reading it, she giggled: "Rites ¡ª ¡ª send it to the bridal chamber ¡ª ¡ª" Wiping the sweat from her forehead, the old granny stopped Liu Xiang and Liu Shui, "Alright, the two young ladies, you two can go and rest, you don''t need to meddle in the following matters, Madame still need your service tomorrow."


    was used to serving Xi Jiu Er, she was afraid that the others would feel uncomfortable serving him, so she grabbed her hand and left: "Aiya, what are you doing, don''t tell me you want to go to the bridal room?"


    The place was pasted with the word ''double'', and it was as red as a sea of fire. It was as eye-catching as the robes worn by the Prince Xian. Following ''Xiao Feng'' to the wedding room, she saw a red candle that was as thick as a child''s arm burning brightly, she was truly shocked, wasn''t this a little too thick?


    "Young Master is in trouble ¡­ ''This is bad ¡­ '' A young servant came running to the door and panted, "There was someone in front of us just now. He said he ran away ¡­"


    The bridegroom paused and waved his hand, signaling the boy to leave.


    "Wait ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er called out to the boy who was about to leave. She did not notice that the groom beside him was acting strange, and only stared at the boy, saying, "I really want to see you from somewhere ¡­ "You are ¡­" When the servant was stopped by Xi Jiu Er, he had already felt that something was wrong. Upon hearing Xi Jiu Er''s words, she had the feeling that she had returned back to being a human, "Haha, this humble one has a long face ¡­" Without leaving a trace, she shot a glance at the bridegroom, intending to slip away.


    "You, you are Prince Xian''s Mansion''s servant, why, why are you here?" Xi Jiu Er suddenly remembered that not long after Xi Wan Feng and Prince Xian got married, she went to the Prince Xian''s Mansion and met this servant once. She was shocked in her heart, why would a servant from the Prince Xian appear here? Could it be that - She suddenly turned her head to look at the stiff bridegroom beside him, and a thought formed as he shouted with a solemn face, "Take off your face."


    "Madame... "Your husband''s face is injured ¡­" The groom''s voice was hoarse as he retreated a few steps without leaving a trace. If one looked carefully, they would be able to tell that the voice was fake. It was very similar to someone who had the guts to do so! Xi Jiu Er was so angry, although the marriage was arranged by herself, she never thought that someone would cause so much trouble for her, the anger was rising to the top. You said that she didn''t care about all the small fights you had, but now that you''re married and playing with her, she definitely can''t stand it.


    "Are you still pretending to be me?" Xi Jiu Er sneered, without saying a word, she ran to the candlestick and pulled out a red candle, only to hear Prince Xian''s voice sounding out: "What are you trying to do?"


    "What is it? What else can you do? " The red candle was thrown at the groom, and rolled a few times in the air. Seeing that he was about to start a fire with the groom, she saw that his body flickered and he did not do anything. The red candle had already been caught by him.


    "You ¡­ After all, we''ve already paid our respects and are husband and wife. How can you be so heartless and murder your husband? " The groom angrily went on to the next page, Prince Xian''s face immediately jumped out, stared at Xi Jiu Er, and said: "Be careful that I don''t take care of you."


    "Who''s married to you!?" This matter should be explained clearly, staring at Xi Jiu Er who was scrunched up, "Where''s Xiao Feng? What did you do to him? "


    "I''m here." Feng Qing Cheng stood at the door, similarly dressed in red wedding clothes, her figure extraordinary. The atmosphere in the room immediately became weird, the Prince Xian grinned: "Hehehe, you came late, Jiu Er and I have already come to the hall, and are already a legitimate couple. Where are you staying?"


    "It''s just paying respects, there''s no bridal chamber." Feng Qing Cheng remained calm and continued speaking calmly: "The one who married her is her husband."


    "¡­"


    "Nonsense, other than me, whoever marries her would have a secret relationship. They would be invaded and sent to the pig cage to roam the streets to demonstrate their skills." Prince Xian revealed a successful smile to Feng Qing Cheng, and raised his chin provocatively.


    "Enough! "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and go back to where you came from." Don''t say anything else, just grab Prince Xian by the front and drag him out. Sometimes, Prince Xian acts like a madman, and with this incident, one definitely cannot live a life.


    "Let go, let go! Didn''t you hear me when I said let go?" Prince Xian seemed like a frightened cat that was about to leap three feet into the air. He pointed his index finger at the white jade hand in front of his chest and begged with a lowered face, "We have just gotten married on the first day. You should at least give your husband some face."


    Xi Jiu Er turned a deaf ear to her, and with a loud bang, she shut Prince Xian out, and locked the door.


    "Open the door ¡­" Let me tell you, if the two of you are... "If you dare, I''ll immediately castrate you." The Prince Xian wanted to break down the door and enter, but the tip of his nose had already touched the ice-cold door.


    He had indeed gone overboard in this matter, toying with a woman''s marriage. Even if Xi Jiu Er were to slap him a few times, it would be easy, but in this world he was a proper husband and wife, hehehe ¡­ The Prince Xian laughed. From now on, he would use this to tie Xi Jiu Er up.


    "Hey, what are you guys doing ¡­" A loud shout rang out.

 C220

    "Hey, what are you guys doing ¡­" The door opened. There was no sound coming from the inside. They were anxious. Could it be that the two of them had already gone to bed? This is bad, if Xi Jiu Er gets angry, she can do anything she wants. She raised her leg and kicked out. The door opened with a bang.


    No one... No one... Prince Xian''s eyes were tightly locked on the bed. The damned doctor was lying on the bed, and Xi Jiu Er was currently sitting on Prince Xian''s body with her round and delicate shoulders exposed. The woman''s robe and robe fluttered, obscuring her surroundings. If it were anyone else, they would have thought ¡­ Aiya, this man is really handsome and peerless. This woman is also a peerless beauty. Just looking at her beautiful skin makes one want to drool. One doesn''t know what it feels like to touch her! He truly wished that he could replace that man ¡­ It was a pity that Prince Xian''s face had changed to that of a dyestuff shop.


    He flew into a rage. "You two! You two are really up to me!" However, he did not dare walk forward, and was firmly fixed in place by Xi Jiu Er''s sharp eyes.


    "Prince Xian, even if you are messing around, you must have a limit." Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were extremely frightening. Even the Prince Xian didn''t just step forward, she also bit her lips which was even more tender than a woman''s. It was as if flames were about to spew out of her eyes.


    "Get out." Xi Jiu Er shouted, her aura exploding, the disgust in his eyes was like a steel blade that stabbed straight into Prince Xian''s chest. He was a proud man, and she had the right to be proud of herself. In front of this woman, the pride he admitted was not even worth mentioning. From the very first time they met, she had never placed him in her eyes, not to mention that she did not have the status of Prince Xian in her eyes.


    "You, you ¡­" Prince Xian''s beautiful face turned red, he did not know how to retreat, but a few seconds of stalemate with Xi Jiu Er was as long as half a century.


    "Your Highness ¡­" Prince ¡­ "The Emperor summoned you ¡­" The timid attendant stuck out his head.


    Ah, isn''t this courting death? Prince Xian gave him a fierce kick, using all his strength directly sent the attendant flying several meters away. The attendant struggled to get up and endured the feeling of having his internal organs tumbling around: "Your Highness ¡­ Your Majesty wants you to enter the palace at once... Cough cough ¡­ Esteemed Empress Dowager... "He died suddenly ¡­"


    The empress dowager''s sudden death?


    Prince Xian was stunned. Why did the perfectly fine empress dowager suddenly die? Prince Xian turned his head and stared at the ''husband'' on the bed who was cooking rice and grinded his teeth as he said, "Let''s go." However, he suddenly stopped and said unhappily: "Xi Jiu Er, just you wait, you have bowed to me before, this king doesn''t mind marrying someone else."


    "Enter the palace."


    and Liu Shui stood outside with a pale face, waiting for Prince Xian to leave, they immediately stepped forward and closed the bridal chamber''s door, and retreated a distance away from Liu Xiang. "This Prince Xian is too much, to actually do such a ridiculous thing, it''s really infuriating."


    "Well, isn''t this all right? Besides, the other party was a prince. How could he possibly eat him? Didn''t you see? In front of us princes, we won''t be able to get anything good from you. " Liu Shui cracked the apple he brought along with him.


    "Liu Shui, you still have the mood to eat at a time like this?" He had long gotten used to Liu Shui''s tasty personality. He was surprised that he was even thinking about eating it at such a time.


    "It''s the middle of the night. I''m hungry." Liu Shui felt extremely wronged.


    Alright, it''s normal for people to be hungry to eat. After all, you can''t make people starve, right? Liu Xiang had nothing to say, but she was a bit worried about Xi Jiu Er''s wedding night.


    "What''s wrong? Why do you look so worried?" Liu Shui threw away the apple core and looked at the sky for another two hours or so. Then, he looked at the exhausted Liu Xiang and said, "Go back and rest.


    "Alright."


    In the bridal room, Xi Jiu Er held onto her clothes silently. The empress dowager was dead ¡­ In other words, the ex-sister-in-law had already taken revenge? The escape plan that he had given her earlier would probably be out of the palace this afternoon without any mishaps.


    "Liu Xiang? Liu Xiang? " No one replied after a few shouts. Just as she was wondering where she was, she saw the red wedding dress on the side of her back turn her head in embarrassment and saw Feng Qing Cheng take off her clothes on her own. Only then did she realize that his entire body was covered in red plum embroidery. It looked like a painting ¡­


    "On your body ¡­" Right now, she was even more seductive than the Prince Xian. Her long black hair covered most of the embroidery, making her look like a demoness who was half lying on the bed. Tian Tian couldn''t help but ask, "Is that embroidery of yours a treasure map?"


    "Eh?" She was flabbergasted. "No."


    "Then what are you embroidering for?" Xi Jiu Er took a few steps forward and looked carefully. There was no hairpin step shake s, no bracelets, and a body of black hair that seemed to be dyed in ink. It was as if a woman stepped on the moon, causing the entire house to shine brilliantly.


    "I had burns... And so, this place was embroidered with mother''s most beloved plum blossom. " Feng Qing Cheng''s brows twitched: "How did you think of a treasure map?"


    Why does this movement seem more and more like the temper of Prince Xian? Xi Jiu Er smirked and said: "I guessed."


    Prince Xian rushed to the palace like a galloping horse, his beloved horse was about to go crazy from the whip. After entering the Imperial City, he jumped off his horse and, ignoring the horse that was in so much pain that it dashed about wildly, left in a rage for the empress dowager''s palace. He had attracted a lot of attention along the way ¡­


    "Your Majesty, the Prince Xian is here ¡­" Eunuch Hai said.


    Prince Xian''s fiery red groom clothes appeared in front of everyone''s eyes, causing them to jump in shock. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked curiously: Why are you wearing this?


    "Don''t I like red? Change the style and wear it. " Prince Xian''s face turned ugly. Everyone thought that he died for the empress dowager''s sake.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was speechless, the Prince Xian''s style was really strange ¡­ He immediately called for the imperial physicians to tell the Prince Xian about the empress dowager''s death.


    "You really have the guts to execute someone in the depths of the palace without any sound. How dare you put me, the emperor, in your eyes?" Did he even put the might of the heavens in his eyes? This matter must be thoroughly investigated! " Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was extremely furious. Although the death of the Empress Dowager had angered him, the way she had truly angered him.


    "This... Has the Emperor found anything? " The Prince Xian tried his best to calm his emotions. He also knew that the situation was serious and that if he could kill the empress dowager silently, maybe the next time he could kill the emperor? No wonder the Emperor was so angry.


    "We''ve already sent people to investigate. We''ve already sent someone to guard the palace and the night watchman, and the night watchman has already been tortured to force a confession. Old man A Qing is also interrogating him ¡­" It was announced to the outside world that the empress dowager had died suddenly due to many years of illness, so she didn''t dare search the palace without restraint. All she said was that the emperor had lost something very important and was searching for something.

 C221

    The empress dowager''s funeral was a top priority for the country. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had ordered that no merriment such as singing, dancing, or even flattery was allowed within half a year, and also no marriage was allowed. And so on and so forth.


    Xi Jiu Er did not wait for the ex-sister-in-law to return and immediately ask Liu Xiang to investigate. The news she got was that the palace maid on duty had died under a heavy punishment, and there were four of them, no more and no less.


    "Princess, could this ex-sister-in-law have already ¡­" The relationship between Liu Xiang and ex-sister-in-law was extremely close, the ex-sister-in-law took care of her like a big sister, but after seeing that Xi Jiu Er was feeling unsettled and did not know what had happened, the ex-sister-in-law''s enemy was actually the Empress Dowager!


    "Remember, ex-sister-in-law went back to visit her family. The date of return is uncertain." Xi Jiu Er quickly regained her composure, stood up and instructed Liu Shui and Liu Xiang: "Let''s go, our heart-nourishing hall."


    On the carriage, Liu Xiang wanted to ask whether or not Xi Jiu Er was discovered to be a virgin on the night of the wedding.


    "Princess ¡­" Madame... Young Master got up really early today ¡­ " It was because she left too early that Liu Xiang felt that something must have happened last night. Thinking about ex-sister-in-law again, Liu Xiang choked with emotions.


    After arriving at the heart-nourishing hall and discovering that Feng Qing Cheng was there, he was very curious about why he was here. Liu Xiang came over and whispered, "Madame, Young Master is the doctor here!"


    Xi Jiu Er did not know what to say. After that, she went into the inner hall and called for the manager: "When ex-sister-in-law left, he probably told you everything clearly. I will not say much.


    "Princess, why is that? "The business is doing well. How do you mean close the door?" The supervisor asked with a puzzled expression.


    Xi Jiu Er only smiled, the manager laughed awkwardly, then took the silver and was about to leave, after hesitating for a bit, he turned around and said softly: "Princess ¡­ There''s something this little one doesn''t know whether I should tell you or not. "


    "What is it?"


    The manager looked at Liu Xiang who was at the side ¡­ As for Liu Shui, she took the opportunity to go out and look for food. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Liu Xiang is my personal servant, if you have anything, just say it."


    "Yes." The steward called out to the inside of the house, "Why aren''t you coming out yet?" The one who answered was a youngster with a thin figure. He had his head lowered and was cowering to the side.


    The young man slowly raised his head and met Xi Jiu Er''s eyes. The killing intent in her eyes shocked everyone. With a flick of his wrist and a ''dong'' sound, he fell down from the chair and revealed a surprised expression.


    It was too fast, Liu Xiang did not even have time to react before her vision turned black and she fainted!


    The overseer at the side was so frightened that his entire body seemed to have gone limp. Seeing that the young man was about to leave, the young man panicked and said, "From now on, this store is yours!" These words made him feel much more at ease. "Many thanks, young master. In the future, this servant will make you my ¡­" "Where can I see him?" Xi Jiu Er, you have finally landed in my hands, I have been waiting for this day to come where I have lost too much, and I have spent my entire life waiting, it is very worth it. " Xi Wan Feng''s voice seemed to be far away... Xi Wan Feng was not dead?


    Xi Jiu Er curled up on top of the haystack, as if she had already fallen asleep. However, her sleep was very restless, as if she was having a nightmare.


    In his dreams, he could see memories of his previous life that were filled with unbearable pain. His head hurt so much that he felt like a madman. That heart-wrenching past.


    When she woke up in a daze, Xi Jiu Er rubbed his head and felt a splitting headache. Suddenly, she heard a sound, and upon leaving the room, she saw a complacent Xi Wan Feng looking at her with malicious intent.


    "Sure enough, you didn''t die." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, her heart having a faint suspicion as to how she escaped to the sky. Seeing how different she was in the past, the woman''s seductive appearance had already outlined, making her look more beautiful.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that Xi Wan Feng would definitely use this opportunity to torture him.


    In her previous life, the two of them had fought for so long, and now that she was in Xi Wan Feng''s hands, she thought back to that watertight plan of hers. A trace of fear rose in his heart. Xi Wan Feng slowly walked over, the pleased look in his eyes was obvious, maybe he was showing it to Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Wan Feng seemed to want to show off his might on her body, with his exquisite makeup and his extravagant and gorgeous long skirt. Like a ball of flame that pounced over, he made a clear contrast with the dark room. He came to Xi Jiu Er''s side and squatted down as he smiled, "My good little sister, I heard that you married a doctor? Oh, you are truly wronged, that doctor looks extremely good, even better than Prince Xian, no wonder you have taken a fancy to him. "


    Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath, then said lightly: "This is my problem, you don''t need to care, don''t you want to know where your mother is?


    "Xi Jiu Er, you are in my hands now, and you still think highly of me?" Xi Wan Feng sneered: "I never treated you as an opponent before, but later on I realized that I was the one that was fooled by you. Now that you''re in my hands, we''ll settle old debts together. My mother''s, my sister''s, mine, I''ll make you repay me ten times over. "


    "Don''t you want to know the whereabouts of the First Lady? Aren''t you very filial? " Xi Jiu Er pursed his lips and said.


    Xi Wan Feng''s face stiffened. She did not expect Xi Jiu Er to be so calm, she thought she would be able to see her begging for mercy, her sorry state, and her miserable scream. Unfortunately, the other party didn''t take her seriously at all, simply angering her to death.


    Xi Wan Feng directly slapped Xi Jiu Er a few times in the face, and said condescendingly: "Lowly person, you''re still showing off your mouth even after you''re already dead."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face was slapped so hard that she crashed into a wall with a thud. Her head went dizzy and she laid down on the pile of grass. I''m not as despicable as you. I clearly don''t like you, but you still stick close to me? She even drugged her ¡­ Woo ¡­ "What? Did I say something wrong? Did you get angry from embarrassment?"


    "Xi Jiu Er, do you think you can enrage me so that you can die more easily? Heh heh, I''m telling you, I''m going to torture you slowly, so I won''t be angry no matter what you say. On the contrary, I would be happy. Why? "Because you''re afraid. You fell into my, Xi Wan Feng''s, hands. You''re afraid, hahaha ¡­" Making Xi Jiu Er afraid was a very successful thing for her.


    Xi Jiu Er did not reveal the so-called ''fear'' Xi Wan Feng, but she was still calm and composed: "Sometimes, when you think about it, I feel that you are quite pitiful. God is very unfair to you, and I have taken advantage of everything good that you want. That doctor might not have any family background, but with my grandfather''s help, his career will definitely be smooth sailing. Look at Prince Xian, your husband in name also seems to have feelings for me. Tsk tsk, how pitiful. Tell me, why are you so unworthy? "

 C222

    Xi Wan Feng gasped for breath, suppressing the sweet taste in his mouth, "Are you proud of yourself? So what if you are Prince Xian''s lover? You will never be Princess Xian, because I am! "As long as I am here, I will not let you dog couples get along with each other. There''s no way."


    "Xi Jiu Er, do you know? Only when you die will I be happy. " Suddenly, Xi Wan Feng reached out and grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s neck with all his might. Xi Jiu Er was still powerless to move her hands away, so she could only say, "Cough, cough, cough, cough ¡ª ¡ª Have you thought about it well, kill ¡­ I, aren''t you afraid of getting angry? "


    That''s right, she had not thought of a good plan yet, which was not to be so reckless. She would retract her anger and stare at Xi Jiu Er, her pretty face grim and terrifying: "Lowly, lowly, I won''t let you enjoy yourself for too long, I won''t." With that, she kicked Xi Jiu Er fiercely. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was in such a sorry state, she was very happy, and felt relieved.


    She could not bear to see Xi Jiu Er being so tactful with everything she had, and had a noble and noble look to him.


    "I said that one day, I will ruthlessly trample you under my feet ¡­" After saying that, she stepped heavily on Xi Jiu Er''s face and rubbed it with all her might: "I hate that face of yours the most, lowly people, lowly people, why don''t you go and die?"


    After a long while ¡ª ¡ª She did not hear any sound of Xi Jiu Er making any movements, and was startled: She died?


    It was great that she was dead. Of course she was happy, but ¡ª if she died at this time, the person would definitely not let her off. She would also lose her life. She carefully squatted down and probed Xi Jiu Er''s breath. Luckily, she was not dead. Although his breathing was very weak, he was still breathing ¡­ Xi Wan Feng heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt extremely unreconciled.


    With a cold snort, Xi Wan Feng stood up and straightened her clothes. In order to anger Xi Jiu Er, she had spent a lot of time and effort dressing up. She intended to leave, but she did not expect to see him bring his men over. Her expression changed slightly as she bowed and asked, "Why is the Young Master here?"


    The Young Master frowned, he looked extremely unhappy, he stared at Xi Wan Feng without saying a word, causing Xi Wan Feng to be scared witless, her current life and death was in his hands. In the next moment ¡ª ¡ª A harsh slap landed on Xi Wan Feng''s face. She did not expect that Prince Xian would suddenly go berserk, so her body swayed and she fell to the ground. She covered her face in shock and was at a loss of what to do. She hated and resented him, but she could not show it.


    "Do you all ignore my orders?" He was asking about the guards outside the house, who immediately knelt and said, "I remember." He had instructed that no one was to get close to him.


    The guards pleaded for mercy, "Young Noble, please spare my life. This subordinate doesn''t dare to do so anymore. This subordinate was just muddle-headed for a moment."


    The man said to the person behind him, "Drag these disobedient people away." Xi Wan Feng shuddered. He did not even look at her, as if she was some sort of dirty thing that caused people to feel disgusted, as if she was poison. When he saw Xi Jiu Er''s voice curled up in the corner, as if she was no longer breathing, he was startled and shouted, "Find a doctor!"


    But the man was indifferent, he anxiously walked over and helped Xi Jiu Er up, and knowing that she needed treatment, he shouted angrily: "What are you standing there for, quickly find a doctor!"


    "Woman, right now she is my bargaining chip. I have an urgent need for her these few days, so you don''t have to touch her. As for you and her nemesis, you can do whatever you want to them to me when I''ve used her, but it''s not right now, do you understand? "


    Even though Xi Wan Feng was unwilling, she had no choice but to obey his orders: "Yes."


    After waking up, Xi Jiu Er discovered that her legs were bound by a thick iron chain. She was stunned, who was it that tied her up like this, Xi Wan Feng? She struggled for a long time, but to no avail. Her limbs were all tied up... She looked at the room and saw that it was not the room she had woken up in. It was another room.


    The furnishings in the house were simple, but the things used were all very luxurious.


    This was the first time in his life that someone had treated him in such a way. Xi Jiu Er was both shocked and angered as she screamed, "Hey, hey! Xi Wan Feng, what exactly do you want? " She wanted to kill Xi Wan Feng immediately, but after shouting for a long time, there was no one around her, not even a servant.


    Dong! The door opened slightly and with a jump, he placed down the lunchbox and closed the door. No matter how Xi Jiu Er shouted, he remained indifferent and angered her to death: "Stop! She called out for a long time, but there was no response. The door was locked. Through the gap in the door, she could see that there was a small courtyard outside. It was very clean and she couldn''t see the servant ¡­


    A wise man knows his place. She would never treat herself unfairly in adversity. Xi Jiu Er took the food and started to eat. She was not afraid that there would be poison in the food, she would not die if she had the spring water. After dinner, she planned to rest up and climb onto the bed to rest, but after tossing and turning for a long time, she was unable to fall asleep. When she finally woke up, it was already late at night. She heard footsteps. There was a fire outside.


    Clang clang, the door opened, someone came in and lit the candles in the house, and a beautiful woman walked in leisurely - Xi Wan Feng!


    Xi Wan Feng would never give up the chance to take revenge against her. She looked at Xi Jiu Er with both of her eyes filled with anger and hatred, and laughed complacently. Are you satisfied with the bracelet I made for you? I made this for you. "


    Xi Jiu Er took a breath and smiled: "Aren''t you afraid of the outside world finding out? You know there are omissions in any scheme. " Previously, when she heard the strange man''s voice before she had entered the space, she knew that she still had some use and would not let Xi Wan Feng do it for the time being.


    Is that so? Xi Wan Feng seemed to have heard something funny as he sneered: "Are you talking about your handsome husband? He''s just a little doctor. Can he find me here? As for your grandpa, I''ve already used a little trick on him, so he ran off like a wisp of smoke to save you. " Seeing Xi Wan Feng''s fearless face, Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat.


    "It''s only been a few days and you''ve already climbed up a high branch. You must be really capable." She had to admit that Xi Jiu Er had sharp insight, she felt wronged that she had lost to him all these years.


    "Oh? "How do you know?" Xi Wan Feng said indifferently.

 C223

    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes flashed with disdain, and said indifferently: "You''re already soaked in sweat, and still trying to show off your strength, could it be that you have charmed another man, and made him willingly serve you? I forgot to tell you, but a great man like Zhong Tang Jun was harmed by you.


    Zhong Tang Jun? Xi Wan Feng''s heart was slightly pricked, he stepped forward and pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand, then fiercely gave him a slap. It was not something an ordinary man could do for Zhong Tang Jun to do such a thing for her. To abandon one''s family, one''s future, and one''s own life. He was the first man to give her warmth. How could she not be moved by him? What was the difference between love and hate?


    Xi Jiu Er endured her slap, bit her lips, and revealed an unbridled smile: "Xi Wan Feng, I will return the harm you have done to me back to your mother multiple times."


    "Really?" Then let''s repay her. Right now, her life is worth nothing to me. She was biased, and only doted on Xi Wan Rong. She never considered that I was her daughter, no matter what Xi Wan Rong wanted, she would unconditionally satisfy him, but what about me? I got nothing. " Xi Wan Feng''s heart was already warping step by step, back then she still had a kind side, thinking about family love, but she had already gradually given up on family love, and didn''t even care about family love anymore, so what was there to be afraid of?


    "Because Xi Wan Rong is a child of your mother and her life, so naturally, their treatment is different." Xi Jiu Er revealed an earth-shattering secret, and very few people knew about this secret. Xi Hong Sheng had always thought that Xi Mao was not his own child.


    Xi Wan Feng looked at Xi Jiu Er in shock. There was no need for Xi Jiu Er to lie, the moment Xi Wan Rong went crazy, Xi Jiu Er more or less wanted her to live her entire life. With her mother in her hands, why would she lie to him when she could casually crush him?


    So that was the case. Then all of this could be said to be in the past. Xi Mao was the mother''s only son. Although he doted on this son, he did not love him more than he did Xi Wan Rong. This was one of the reasons why she was balanced back then. At least First Lady was not only targeting her.


    "Sigh, I should thank you for solving the doubts in my heart for so many years. No matter if she is my mother or not, I have already sent that woman to the heavens. I have gone through all the pain and suffering for her, so consider her my duty as a daughter! "Someone, come!"


    Clap clap clap clap. Xi Wan Feng clapped his hands, two old grannies carrying a person whose life and death was unknown. From his posture, it seemed like he was dressed like a woman. Xi Jiu Er gasped. Too familiar, too familiar ¡­ No, no! It must not be like he thought!


    Throwing that person down like a rag, he said, "Do you know who she is? She is the one you see as your sister ¡ª ¡ª Liu Xiang. "


    "Shut up, she can''t be Liu Xiang." Xi Jiu Er looked up at Xi Wan Feng, her eyes filled with a suffocating hatred and anger, even Xi Wan Feng who was watching the show was shocked speechless. The more Xi Jiu Er acted like this, the happier she was, and the more smile appeared on her face.


    "What is it? Don''t you believe that she is Liu Xiang? Unfortunately, she didn''t believe him and there was nothing she could do, she was the fake Liu Xiang. Hahaha ¡­ "I''ve wanted to kill this girl for a long time, I''ve finally found an opportunity today!" Xi Wan Feng was so happy that her entire body started to distort.


    "Xi Wan Feng!" In this life, she had thought that she could protect Liu Xiang well, but who would have thought that Liu Xiang would still fall into her hands in the end? She looked at Liu Xiang, who was lying on the ground in despair. Liu Xiang! " But no matter how much she yelled at him, she didn''t move.


    Xi Wan Feng was overjoyed: "Xi Jiu Er, what''s wrong, you''re also sad and angry at the same time? I thought you wouldn''t cry in front of me for your entire life, but look at how you''re crying now. Hahaha, Xi Jiu Er, you lowly person, I didn''t think that you would have such a day. "


    "Save her, I beg you to save her, save her ahh!" She stood a few steps away from Liu Xiang, not daring to move no matter how she called Liu Xiang. Her eyes were a deep crimson red, as if she was about to bleed.


    Save? How could Xi Wan Feng save him? What she wanted to do was for Xi Jiu Er to be heartbroken and go crazy. This was her goal for coming here. She smiled and said, "Save her, that''s fine. Come, say that you are a lowly person, that you are just a young prostitute, a woman, that you are a lowly person who can ride a thousand people. Say it, as long as you say so, I will save her."


    Xi Jiu Er knew that Xi Wan Feng would not save Liu Xiang, but she still held onto a strand of hope and quickly said: "I, Xi Jiu Er, am a lowly person, a little slut, a slut that can be ridden by a thousand people. I plead that you be magnanimous and be merciful in order to save her, I will promise you anything you want, I beg you, to save her."


    Even Xi Wan Feng did not expect that Xi Jiu Er would lower herself to such an extent for a servant. It was truly unexpected, but it was way too relieving. She walked to the front of Xi Jiu Er and squatted down, laughing: "Hahahaha... Xi Jiu Er, you have this day as well. " After slapping him twice, Xi Wan Feng was finally satisfied.


    "Hehehe, you can grieve as much as you want. She can''t be saved, she died a long time ago! Even a deity would not be able to save her, haha ¡­ Xi Jiu Er, on account of the deep affection that you once had for master and servant, I shall give you two a little more time to reunite properly. "


    Xi Wan Feng led the people and left, leaving the miserable Xi Jiu Er. Xi Wan Feng had done it on purpose, she was simply not enough to reach Liu Xiang, she could only call out, "Liu Xiang, Liu Xiang." Unfortunately, Liu Xiang didn''t have any reaction. Her heart was unusually sad, as if she was going to die.


    "Liu Xiang..." Xi Jiu Er''s voice was filled with an incomparable frailty as she roared at Liu Xiang, "Liu Xiang, answer me, answer me ¡­ Answer me... "Sob, sob, sob ¡­" Liu Xiang was lying on the ground like a dead man.


    "Liu Xiang, I beg you to wake up. Don''t abandon me, don''t abandon me ¡­ I beg you, Liu Xiang ¡­ " Other than Xi Jiu Er''s crying, there was no other sound in the house. Xi Jiu Er begged, with such despair, in her previous life, Liu Xiang had fallen right in front of her eyes. She did not want to be like this in this life ¡­ Don''t do that.


    "Heavens, why are you so cruel to me? Why!" Xi Jiu Er roared, her hands and feet were already badly mutilated, but she could not feel any pain at all, because her heart was in even more pain, in even more pain!


    "Qiu Qiu, come out, come out ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er shouted frantically, "Come out."

 C224

    In the time it takes to make a cup of tea ¡ª ¡ª When the white cat walked in, Xi Jiu Er pointed at the little girl on the ground and cried: "Save her, quickly save her."


    "Master ¡­" "Dead ¡­" Qiu Qiu probed: "My body is already cold."


    Dead? Dead ¡­ Xi Jiu Er stared into her empty eyes, and suddenly slapped herself hard, and cursed herself: "I deserve to die, it was I who killed Liu Xiang, it was I who killed Liu Xiang, it was my fault, my fault ¡­ ¡­ "My fault ¡­" Tears fell to the ground.


    Very quickly, Xi Jiu Er''s face was like a pig''s head. Qiu Qiu was already completely stunned by Xi Jiu Er''s series of actions, and only when he heard a ''bang'' did he finally wake up.


    In the space, Xi Jiu Er laid quietly in the spring, a strange calm appearing on her face: "Qiu Qiu, no matter what, you must protect Liu Xiang''s corpse." After saying that, he fell asleep.


    The next day, Xi Wan Feng came back again, this time with a soft whip in her hand. Behind her was an old lady with a fierce-looking face, looking extremely ferocious. Xi Wan Feng smiled and said to the old granny: "I''ll leave this lowly person to you.


    Strangely, when she came in, the corpse was no longer there. She sent people to look around the bloodstain and saw the cat''s footprints. It must have been taken by a wild cat, so she didn''t pursue the matter. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was lying calmly on the bed, no different from a dead person, Xi Wan Feng knew that she was in deep sorrow, and nothing more. It was just a maid; it was truly a love between a master and his servant.


    The old lady took the soft whip from Xi Wan Feng''s hands and laughed complacently, "Madame, don''t worry. I am the best at dealing with lowly people like you. Initially, she was still a little worried that someone would come knocking on her door. Xi Wan Feng assured her that if something were to happen to her, she would bear the responsibility herself, and would not implicate her, and even give her quite a bit of compensation, which caused the old granny to grow bold.


    The old granny swung her whip fiercely over, only hearing a ''pa'' sound from the whip, Xi Jiu Er''s skin immediately split open, it was extremely painful. Although this old woman''s whip was powerful, it was still something she could endure.


    "Little bitch, look at you, you really make people unhappy. How can she be as beautiful as our Madame? " The old granny used all her strength to beat him and scold him. She did not show any mercy at all. In her mouth, she was probably even worse than an animal.


    Like rain, Xi Jiu Er bit her lips and did not beg for mercy. Back then, when she chose this path, she did not cower, and would never beg for mercy or compromise in front of her enemies. She glared at Xi Wan Feng fiercely. When Xi Wan Feng saw that she did not beg for mercy, he laughed coldly and said: "Beat her up, beat her up until she begs for mercy. I''d like to see how hard her skin is. "


    Even though her arms were aching from the pain, she was still trying her best to hold onto the whip and scolding, "You little slut, you little slut, if I don''t beat you to death today, quickly beg for the life of the wangfei, do you hear me!"


    After fighting for a while, she realised that Xi Jiu Er was stubborn to the point that she did not even show any signs of retreating or begging for forgiveness. In the end, she was panting and sweating. Although she was tired, she was still very happy. What she hated the most was the fox spirit that always seduced her with those words. Her husband was hooked away by that fox spirit. Besides, she was already old and decrepit. She would definitely vent her anger when she saw the beautiful woman in front of her.


    Xi Wan Feng was tired after looking at it for a long time, he then said: "I''ll leave this place to you, don''t beat people to death for me, okay?" She thought she could see Xi Jiu Er kowtowing and begging for mercy, but she realized that she had thought wrong.


    When Xi Wan Feng left, the old granny immediately became spirited. As long as she didn''t kill him, she could do whatever she wanted with him. She revealed her yellow teeth and chuckled towards Xi Jiu Er, and smiled: "I''ll let you experience my power!" With that, she took out a silver needle and walked towards Xi Jiu Er, who was lying on the floor gasping for breath, seeing the old granny walk towards him, her eyes flashed, and begged for forgiveness: "No, no, let me go, let me go ¡­."


    When the old woman heard that Ning Xuemo was extremely satisfied with her begging, she coldly laughed and said, "I''ll let you go right now." The silver needle in her hand fiercely pierced towards Xi Jiu Er, but unexpectedly, a scene happened. Xi Jiu Er suddenly stood up and slapped the old granny, she was immediately stunned, and was unable to react to what had happened.


    Xi Jiu Er fiercely gripped onto her throat. The old woman never thought that Xi Jiu Er would still have the strength to resist at this time, it was truly beyond her expectations. At this moment, Xi Jiu Er looked at her with eyes as cold as a sword: "Do you believe that I won''t let you die a graveless death in the next moment?"


    With that, he used a bit more strength in his hand and the old woman coughed, "Cough, cough, I, I believe... Madame, don''t blame me, if you want to blame something, you have to blame the wangfei. It was she who told me to hit you, not me.


    Xi Jiu Er took out a pearl from her bosom and quickly fed it to the old granny, saying fiercely, "I fed you a poison, and only I have the antidote for this poison. If you want to live, go and steal the key to the iron chains from my wife." She paused for a moment before continuing, "I have a total of over a hundred thousand taels of silver. If you complete my orders, I will give them all to you."


    The old granny was moved. Firstly, someone like her loved her little life, and secondly, she was greedy. It was more than ten thousand taels! How come she wasn''t jealous? But ¡ª what if Xi Wan Feng came to find him? Xi Jiu Er seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and said: "Don''t worry, I''ll immediately give you one hundred thousand silver if I go out. How about you take the money and run for your life tonight?


    This old woman wasn''t thinking about her family''s heartless man or that lecherous fox. Instead, she was thinking about her own miserable daughter, who was about to reach the age to kiss ¡­ When that time came, she would secretly take her daughter away and live a life of incest. It would be the best if she could find someone to serve her daughter honestly.


    The old woman gritted her teeth. No matter what, she had to think for her daughter, no? Saying that, he nodded and said, "Alright ¡­ I''ll listen to you. " Xi Jiu Er retracted his hand and said with incomparable sincerity, "I won''t break my promise."


    This old woman wasn''t afraid of her going back on her word. If she went back on her word, he would tie her up ¡­ Humph! The next day, Xi Wan Feng still came back, but this time the old granny did leave a trump card in his hand, and said: "My royal consort, there''s no way to lock this person up, why not wash her clean before doing anything else?"


    Indeed, Xi Jiu Er''s body was releasing a terrible stench, Xi Wan Feng covered his mouth, thinking that if people were to torture her to death, she would definitely be the one to suffer in the end, then nodded: Yes. With that, he handed the key he brought with him to the old woman. "I''ll leave this matter to you." Then he left in disgust.


    An inescapable trap was set up outside, and experts were gathered there. She wouldn''t be able to escape even if she was alone. Humph, in a few days, Xi Jiu Er will land on her body and see how she is going to fix her.

 C225

    "Madame, I have already prepared what you want." The old woman took out a bottle of wine from her bosom. This was a highly concentrated wine that she had specially arranged for him. This type of wine was not for drinking; it was usually used for lighting firewood. The old woman was very thoughtful. She knew that if she were to prepare this, it would definitely be of no use. She was worried that she might be able to get the silver taels.


    Xi Jiu Er removed the bracelet from her hand and handed it over to the old granny: "This is equivalent to thanking you." The old lady saw that the bracelet was extremely valuable and snatched it from Xi Jiu Er''s hands. She rubbed it back and forth and asked greedily, "Are there any other good things?"


    "You''ve done everything I asked of you, and the benefits are not only that." Xi Jiu Er looked at the bracelet with disdain: "I have a lot of these things, but I will just give you a dozen or so more when the time comes."


    The old granny knew that the of the rich people had a dozen or so bracelets, and that her own daughter was wearing inferior items that she had bought from a stall, which was even worse than those servants of the rich people''s residences. She was such a daughter. Her life wasn''t as important as her daughter''s future prospects. She had suffered for her entire life, so she couldn''t let her daughter suffer with her for the rest of her life.


    "Miss, if you have any orders, just say them. Even if I have to risk my life, I will still help you." The old granny swept her gaze greedily, then patted her chest and promised Xi Jiu Er. In any case, this woman wouldn''t be able to run away, and there were many people watching her from the outside. It would be better to take advantage of her death to squeeze a little bit.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that she was doing it all for him, so she whispered a few sentences into her ears. When the old woman heard it, she became troubled.


    "You just need to take care of it. It''s definitely time that you reap the benefits. Remember, if you want to obtain those things, you have to be careful." Xi Jiu Er whispered: "This is the last thing I want you to do, in the future, go and live a good life with your family while you travel to a remote place."


    Xi Wan Feng gazed down at the man who was slowly walking towards him. Although he was an expensive doctor, he was still a peerless person. He could not help but think that Xi Jiu Er was truly lucky to be able to find a random man to marry.


    "He''s just a doctor, how could he be a threat to the young master?" Xi Wan Feng said with disdain in his eyes.


    The man took a sip of tea leisurely, shot a glance at the short-sighted woman: "Do you know his true identity? "It''s not that simple."


    Oh? Could it be that he had some sort of background? Xi Wan Feng saw that the guy had an extraordinary air and thought that he was just an ordinary self-proclaimed high ranking doctor, but now, he could see that his every move did indeed carry a natural noble Qi, could it be some rich young master?


    "All of you can leave now. I want to properly reminisce with my old friend ¡­" The man''s grin was full of meaning, and it sent chills down one''s spine. It was as if a rich wolf had purposely erupted when it saw a piece of fat meat. Xi Wan Feng retreated, but just as she was about to eavesdrop on her wrist, someone caught hold of her. Yan Niang stared at her with his cold eyes: "Where are you going? Young Master told you to stay here, so you should stay here. "


    "Sister Yan Niang, I am extremely curious about the identity of the doctor, please tell me." The itch in Xi Wan Feng''s heart was extremely uncomfortable, and she begged for mercy, "Big Sister Yan Niang, just tell me ¡­"


    Yan Niang coldly swept her a glance, looked at everyone around him, and then muttered: "Wind Nation, Imperial Family!"


    What? It''s actually the Wind Nation Royal Family? Judging from his age, he should be a prince! Xi Jiu Er, why are you so lucky? Just picking up a random man would make her a prince. The heavens were not treating her well! Xi Jiu Er bit her lips and revealed a forced smile, "So that''s how it is."


    Dong dong dong ¡ª There was movement from the yamen visitor next door. He didn''t know what she had said, so he could only hear a faint laughter coming from the man. Yan Niang took out her unfinished embroidered purse. Her embroidery skills were not anything special, but she liked embroidery. Xi Wan Feng had seen her ever since she first came to know that she would embroider lotus pouches whenever she had the time. One time, she inadvertently glanced at it and almost spit it out. Was it a child embroidering? What a terrible sight.


    "Sister Yan Niang, I''m in a hurry, I need to go to the latrine." Xi Wan Feng acted as though she was on pins and needles, but had no choice but to remain calm, suddenly holding her lower abdomen as she bowed and said.


    Yan Niang raised her head, as if telling her not to play any more tricks.


    "Sister Yan Niang, just believe me when I say that the steamed bun I ate today was probably made of rotten meat. Xi Wan Feng ungracefully arched his butt, and his face flushed red.


    Seeing that she believed in him eighty to ninety percent, Yan Niang said: "Go quickly, Young Noble still has to instruct us to do something later."


    "Alright, I''ll be right back." Xi Wan Feng slipped away like a wisp of smoke, her posture when leaving was extremely indecent! No one expected her to leave by the back door of the teahouse. After hurriedly finding a carriage, she lowered the curtain and urged, "Hurry, hurry."


    "Alright." The carriage driver swung his whip and passed by the old woman''s carriage. The old woman went to the back door of the Wei Guogong Palace according to Xi Jiu Er''s instructions. She then handed it over to the guard with a hairpin: "The owner of this hairpin ¡­ "Hey, hey, what are you guys doing? Let me go, let me go."


    The old woman was escorted by a guard to see Old Zhang. Old Zhang looked at the hairpin and shouted, "Quickly tell me, where is the princess?"


    I was just following her instructions. She said that she wanted me to take this hairpin to the Wei Guogong Palace to look for Old Zhang, and that she would give me the silver that I had on me. And then I did. "


    Old Zhang was speechless. How could this old woman believe him? In truth, the old granny did not believe him, but she had secretly went to the pawnshop to ask Xi Jiu Er about the bracelet. She knew that giving 500 taels of silver to the pawnshop was a sky-high price for the poor woman, so she knew that the price the pawnshop offered was not just that.


    A human''s heart is not worth swallowing an elephant, if the old granny wanted to get more, she would have to listen to Xi Jiu Er''s words. The bracelet gave to her unblinkingly, and she believed that Xi Jiu Er asking her servant to give her the silver should be true. Why couldn''t she just rely on herself to do things? Who would have thought that this seemingly shrewd old woman would be bought off simply by a bracelet?


    Elder Zhang held the hairpin and said, "Tell me where the person is and I will give you a thousand silver taels right away."


    The old granny brought Xi Jiu Er''s hairpin over, just because she wanted to get some benefits from it, she couldn''t just get rid of him with a thousand gold. She quickly thought about it. She had already determined Xi Jiu Er''s identity, not only was she a princess, she was the only granddaughter of the Wei Guogong. Wasn''t a thousand taels of silver a bit too petty?


    "Five thousand liang, and I''ll have to thank you afterwards." Who would have thought that the old granny would think that it was Xi Jiu Er who said that it was worth more than ten thousand taels of silver? Seeing that the old woman''s eyebrows had not moved at all, she said anxiously, "Tell me the price, how much silver does it cost to tell me where the princess is?"


    While they were bargaining, Xi Wan Feng''s carriage had already stopped at an inn. After paying the money, they hurriedly entered the inn''s backyard. The inn''s backyard was already surrounded, and before Xi Wan Feng entered the room, he had already secretly taken out his hairpin and hid it in his sleeve.

 C226

    pinched the hairpin in his hand: Xi Jiu Er, today, I will come to find you to take your life. That doctor was the Wind Nation Prince, and Xi Jiu Er would be the Crown Prince''s consort in the future? How could she look so carefree and unrestrained? From the looks of it, Xi Jiu Er was very useful. It was unknown when she would be able to take revenge, so she couldn''t wait any longer ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er squinted. Could it be that she had already used up all of her abilities? But the result was that she was not like Xi Wan Feng, could it be that there was a change midway?


    "Xi Jiu Er..." Xi Wan Feng saw that her guard was as though someone had poured a bucket of cold water over him, and her expression had returned to normal. Fortunately, there was an extra layer of preparation for her arrival, as well as some knockout drugs.


    "Sou ¡ª ¡ª" A small pebble outside the window struck Xi Wan Feng''s wrist.


    Xi Wan Feng''s hand was in pain, he suddenly turned his head towards the window and shouted: "Who?" But no one replied, they did not see a single person either. Xi Wan Feng turned his head in confusion, he was shocked to see a person standing in front of him, and was extremely frightened.


    "Come ¡ª" Before he could even open his mouth to speak, he was unable to speak, and his body collapsed limply to the ground. Witnessing the person who came to untie Xi Jiu Er''s shackles, she felt as if her heart was burning with anxiety.


    The person who came was none other than Liu Shui. Yesterday, Liu Shui went out to look for food, and when he returned, he did not find any trace of Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang. Xi Jiu Er was intelligent, she knew that once Xi Wan Feng died, no one would come to mess with him.


    Who would have thought that when she returned to the Wind Hall leisurely, Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er would not have returned, so she had a faint bad premonition in her heart. He went to the heart-nourishing hall and found that there were a lot of sick people there. It was almost time to close, and there were still a long line of sick people. Only now did she know that Xi Jiu Er had been kidnapped. She asked about the route to the Wei Guogong s, but who would have thought that there would be no one around when they reached their destination? She suddenly felt that something was wrong. Not only Xi Jiu Er had disappeared, the Wei Guogong had also disappeared.


    He then contacted the Prince Xian. As the prince of the royal family, he recited Buddhist scriptures to the empress dowager in the palace for seven days before leaving the palace. He wondered if he could come out. Liu Shui no longer had any ideas, and could not find anyone to discuss with, so in the end it was worth it to look for Feng Qing Cheng.


    Today, there were more patients than usual, and it was not a serious illness either. They all had minor ailments, as if they were deliberately asked to delay him. Originally, Feng Qing Cheng had only been guessing, but now that he heard Liu Shui''s words, he was sure of his guess.


    "What should I do ¡­" Liu Shui stomped her feet in anxiousness, secretly hating herself for being gluttonous.


    Feng Qing Cheng whispered a few more words into her ear before he brought the manager into the inner hall. After being interrogated severely, he found out that the manager didn''t even know who the culprit was.


    "Keep fighting." Feng Qing Cheng looked like a king looking down upon the world with his tyrannical aura. Liu Shui glanced at the little doctor and saw that his killing intent was even heavier than that of an assassin''s. Liu Shui was not sloppy when he attacked, the manager recalled, and said he heard someone shouting ''Yan Niang'', and even heard a few ''gongzi''.


    "Stop fighting." Feng Qing Cheng stopped her, "I already know who it is." With that, he rushed out, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone, leaving Liu Shui at a loss. There was still about two hours before nightfall, so Liu Shui fiercely slapped the supervisor to vent his anger, and since Feng Qing Cheng knew, could he save him?


    "Meow ~ ~ ~" A white cat appeared out of nowhere and sat by Liu Shui''s feet with a dog in its mouth ¡ª ¡ª It was holding Liu Shui''s skirt.


    "Aiya, go go go ¡­" Liu Shui impatiently kicked the white cat away, and the white cat came over to meow meow meow ¡­ She kept shrieking nonstop and continued to tug at the hem of her skirt in a certain direction. Liu Shui lowered his head and asked: "Are you bringing me somewhere?"


    Do you still remember that she saw this white cat? It was different from now. He had kissed the princess. As Liu Shui thought about it, he saw that the white cat was meowing and nodding at the same time. Liu Shui turned around and asked, "Are you bringing me somewhere to find someone?"


    "Meow!" Nodding.


    "Then let''s go." Liu Shui said.


    Liu Shui followed the white cat and arrived at the backyard of the inn. The cat turned left and right with graceful steps to reach a dried up well outside the backyard. With a meow, he jumped down, scaring Liu Shui out of his wits.


    "Dong ¡ª ¡ª" This was a dried up well, the moment Liu Shui jumped down, he couldn''t see the cat. There was only the sound of a cat meowing ¡­


    Although the well was dried up, it still connected with the underground floor of the inn. After exhausting a great deal of effort to squeeze in, it suddenly became clear to the eye. Where was the narrow spot? This was a passageway. It had probably been a long time since someone last used it to release a pungent smell. Liu Shui opened the fire piston and followed the white shadow in front as he tried to guess what the underground passage was used for. Could it be that this inn was a dark inn?


    Liu Shui thought, then suddenly remembered that this area had once belonged to Xi Jiu Er and, it was an inn. At that time, the ex-sister-in-law said that the inn had been misappropriated by the steward. Not only did he do it, he also did it as a hoodlum. No matter what, it was closely linked to the Wei Guogong, so they did not punish him severely. Finally, they gave the inn to the government. Finally, someone bought an inn.


    Initially, Xi Jiu Er thought this place was too remote. She was relatively knowledgeable in the area of medicinal herbs, but after hearing that the new owner of this inn was an old couple that didn''t have any children, she gave up.


    Could it be this inn? When Liu Shui climbed out, he discovered that at one end of the dried up well was the abandoned other dried up well in the backyard. However, this dry well was not clean, and there were countless bones. Since they had already reached the backyard, Liu Shui was not weak himself, so naturally, he didn''t need to disturb them. Seeing that the sky was about to darken, and hearing sudden noises from outside, Liu Shui jumped into the dried up well.


    A voice came from above. It turned out to be a shift change. After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, a cat''s meow sounded out. Liu Shui crawled out of the well and followed the cat into the house. Inside the room, before the master and servant pair could even speak, they saw Xi Jiu Er and heard movement outside. Liu Shui looked at the cat, who ran out from the window. Liu Shui did not know what he was thinking, and followed along!


    Liu Shui''s face suddenly changed, he climbed up the tree in a fluster, staring at the white cat. Xi Wan Feng''s voice came from inside, shocking her even more: Xi Wan Feng didn''t die? From the sound of it, he seemed to not only be alive but also perfectly fine, and his tone was full of energy.


    Xi Jiu Er rubbed her wrist as she looked at Xi Wan Feng with a smile that was not a smile, and said: "Handle her for me."


    Liu Shui swiftly cuffed Xi Wan Feng''s arm, and even intimately sealed her mouth! Xi Jiu Er instructed Liu Shui: "Liu Shui, go out and lure the people outside away." Liu Shui did not doubt him. After she left, the white cat and Xi Jiu Er went into the inner room ¡­ When sounds of movement came from outside, a huge fire roared from inside the room.

 C227

    Three months later, Wind Nation, Yan Du''s Tea House.


    Song Yun Shan''s black red face darkened even more. She looked at him with doubt and confusion, not knowing what was going on.


    "If this Master has anything to say, feel free to speak." What do you want to talk about? I''m still hungry.


    "You are very similar to my son ¡­" Song Yun Shan opened his mouth with much difficulty and his voice was choked with sobs.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows and listened to what she had to say.


    Song Yun Shan stared at his own tableware and said, "Three years ago, he disregarded our advice and insisted on going to school. It was also because I found out about the news of his death yesterday. It was said that he fell down the cliff, and I hid it from the Madame to investigate.


    Xi Jiu Er listened silently. Could it be that her disguise was somewhat similar to his son''s, which was why she said all these? Or did she look at this face and remember his son?


    "I have never dared to tell Madame that she gave birth to such a son, and dotes on him as if he were her life. If I knew that, it would be difficult for me to imagine how sad she would be ¡­" Song Yun Shan raised his head and looked deeply at the face opposite him. How great would it be if he was his own son? I wish my son were still alive. It was his fault. He was the one who proposed the idea of travelling. Who would have thought that he would lose his life the moment he left the academy? Regret up to this day, every night tossing and turning, but dare not mention to who.


    "I deeply sympathize with the fate that has befallen you, my young master. Please grieve for the passing away." Xi Jiu Er could feel the sorrow of the other party. There was nothing she could do but console him.


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" He did not know if Xi Jiu Er''s words made the tall and strong man put down his disguise, or if it pierced the beauty that she had always thought her son was still alive, and suddenly started crying like a child. The pain of losing her son, and the long period of depression, caused Song Yun Shan to cry for a long time.


    In this world, there were many people like Song Yun Shan who had lost their son. Xi Jiu Er looked at the apricot red sunset, and the sound of their wailing could be heard.


    After Song Yun Shan finished crying, he looked at the time and said: ", you have said that you are done, and even you have finished crying, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. I still have matters to attend to."


    Song Yun Shan dried her eyes and said a little embarrassedly: "You must be joking, I really lost control of myself."


    "It''s nothing, it''s nothing." Xi Jiu Er stood up and saluted with her hands folded. Just as she walked a few steps, she was blocked by Song Yun Shan.


    "What are you going to do, little brother?" If there is anything I can do, please speak as much as you can. As long as it is something I can do, I will not refuse. " After Song Yun Shan found out about Xi Jiu Er''s traces, he sent people to keep an eye on her and found out that she was looking for a house in the vicinity. After checking carefully later on that she was not from Wind Nation, she decided to settle down in there. He was well aware of what Xi Jiu Er was going to do. In the past few days, Xi Jiu Er had been busy with matters of the house, if he could get close to her, he would be able to carry out his plans.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while. Song Yun Shan was a good person, if he could help the house, it would be over as soon as possible.


    "Hur hur, there really is one thing I would like you to help me with!"


    "Tell me about it." Song Yun Shan understood.


    "I want to find a place to go in and out of the house. For the past few days, I''ve been rushing about because of this matter. I''ve seen quite a few houses, but they''ve made me very satisfied." Master is a local, do you think you can help me ask if there''s such a mansion ¡­ "


    Song Yun Shan ''Oh'' nodded his head and clapped. "You finally found the right person. I have a friend who is doing this, but this friend of mine went on a long journey. He will be back in two or three days."


    Naturally, there would be two to three days. Xi Jiu Er laughed: "I am staying at the Pleasing Hut. If that friend comes back, you can look for me in Sky No. 1 Room."


    "You live in an inn?" "Since we''re so lucky, we might as well stay at my place for a day or two. It won''t be too late to move after we find a house." Song Yun Shan''s heart jumped a little. Based on his many years of experience viewing people, the young man in front of him was not so easily fooled. As expected, Xi Jiu Er firmly shook his head: "No need, it''s good to stay at the inn. Your son and I are so similar, if Madame saw it, he would probably be hurt. "


    "Don''t worry, my Madame has already gone to the temple to burn incense. She won''t be back for at least ten days or half a month. Secondly, a wise son cannot be a mother. My son was born to her, so naturally, she will be able to explain it to him. " Song Yun Shan laughed: "If the servants dare to gossip, I will immediately take care of them."


    "..." "No need." Xi Jiu Er shook her head.


    "Go, go, go. It''s rare for us to be so lucky. A few days of living in my house is nothing." Song Yun Shan stood up and took Xi Jiu Er''s bag as he walked forward quickly. The contents of the bag were all important stuff that Song Yun Shan should have taken back.


    There was a carriage parked outside the teahouse. Song Yun Shan sat on the carriage and waved at him, immediately making him angry, even though he was a good person, he was too displeased with himself for not asking for his permission to take other people''s belongings and not return it to him. It was too infuriating. Thinking back to the painful cry of the dead child, Xi Jiu Er''s heart softened. Forget it, it was just going to stay for a few days, so what?


    The carriage was very comfortable, not luxurious. The things that could be used were all very good. Presumably, they were all rich people as well. After walking for about an hour, Ma Jiu stopped. He heard Song Yun Shan''s rough and bold voice say, "We''re here."


    Xi Jiu Er jumped off the carriage and saw a signboard with the words'' Song Mansion ''written in large, bold and powerful characters. She muttered "nice" in her heart as she followed Song Yun Shan into the palace.


    Song Mansion was very big, the servants could tell at a glance that she was well-trained and was doing her own things. Xi Jiu Er continued to admire the ingenious design of the Song Mansion as he walked, causing her eyes to light up.


    Perhaps it was because the way he disguised himself was very similar to the Young Master, so everyone looked at him as if they had seen a ghost. Xi Jiu Er was careless and followed Song Yun Shan around the entire palace. On the third lap, Xi Jiu Er finally spoke out, "Son of the Master, where exactly are you bringing me to? I''ve already walked through this place. "


    "Ah?" That''s why I brought you to walk a few laps more. " Song Yun Shan''s answer stunned Xi Jiu Er for a moment, and he quickly said: "I''ve finished appreciating it, I just want to rest."


    Song Yun Shan made a long ''oh'' sound, then said: "You should have said it earlier, I would have brought you to the guest room to rest, honestly, why are you being so formal when you''re family."


    Xi Jiu Er was unable to fathom Song Yun Shan''s temper. For some baffling reason, blocked his path, and then, he began to talk about his son''s matter. He began to cry like a child in front of, and then took away his burden. In the end, he didn''t even know how he came here. Xi Jiu Er facepalmed, and said indifferently: "You didn''t tell me your intentions, how would I know?"

 C228

    "My intention is very clear. You don''t have to look at it yourself." Song Yun Shan was suddenly speechless and quickly waved his hands. "Alright, alright, I''m going to rest."


    After circling the Song Mansion twice, Xi Jiu Er''s legs started to tremble. She only wanted to take a bath and have a comfortable sleep as soon as possible. Song Yun Shan, who was walking in front, suddenly shouted loudly. "Crap," he scared Xi Jiu Er who was still in a daze, and immediately asked: "What''s wrong?"


    A group of people came forth majestically, led by a beautiful lady. Liu Ye arched her eyebrows, her temperament was gentle and gentle, and her goose yellow long skirt was blooming like a beautiful flower. She walked quickly, just like Xi Jiu Er. Seeing the eagerness in her eyes, Xi Jiu Er licked her lips and immediately guessed that this person was Madame Song.


    "Tian ¡­" Madame Song''s lips trembled, and her cheeks flushed red from excitement. With an expression of disbelief, she stood a step away from Xi Jiu Er as she shook her shoulders.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that she had recognised the wrong person, and the cruel words choked in her throat. However, she was not her child, at this moment, she wished that she was the Song Family''s dead body, a Young Master.


    "Pa!" With a slap, Xi Jiu Er widened her eyes in shock.


    "You still know how to come back? Three years. Three years after you left, there was actually no news of you. You didn''t even give your family a single letter, and you still treat me and your father like family? I gave birth to you in October with a slim chance at life. Is that how you repay me? " Madame Song was filled with grief, his body was on the verge of collapsing. If not for the help from the old mother and his servants, he would have died from anger long ago.


    Song Yun Shan said: "Madame, don''t be angry, your son is just back. You are so angry, what can you do? "See if I don''t beat you to death today ¡­" After which, he looked around furiously for something.


    Before Xi Jiu Er could say anything, she was hugged by the Madame Song, and roared: "You''ve grown in abilities, your son just came back and you beat him up, beat him up, and maybe even me will kill him too. "Anyways, just look at how we mother and son don''t like each other. Alright, if you look at that little bitch you''re raising outside, then go, go."


    "Madame, I-I don''t like you at all. I just wanted to teach this unfilial son a lesson." Song Yun Shan said in an innocent and helpless voice. In the end, he stared at Xi Jiu Er and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to your mother.


    Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth, the pleading in her eyes and the tears of the Madame Song. She hugged herself tightly, as if she was the most precious treasure in the world. Originally, she wanted to say something, but she couldn''t. She always felt that she was stubborn, but when she saw Madame Song like this, her heart softened.


    "Yes, I''m sorry mother ¡­" Since his mouth had already opened, he might as well say: "mother, all wrong is your son''s fault, don''t be angry. I hit my head on the way to school. I can''t remember some things. I saw the doctor and said that it would gradually get better... It''s not that I don''t want my son to come back, it''s just that I didn''t even know who I was previously, nor did I know where my home was ¡­ "


    When Madame Song heard this, her eyes widened. Xi Jiu Er immediately consoled him: "Don''t worry mother, I''m much better now. I''ve already thought of a lot of things, but there are some things that I still haven''t thought of."


    "My poor Tian''er, it''s good as long as you''re alive, it''s good as long as you''re alive!" Madame Song''s tears rolled down as she hugged Xi Jiu Er tightly and cried, "You don''t know that mother dreamt that you fell off the cliff and died. Pain flashed across Song Yun Shan''s eyes who was standing at the side. Xi Jiu Er''s heart could not help but feel pain, it was said that her mother''s heart was not lying at all.


    "The wind is blowing outside the Madame. Since little Young Master will definitely not be able to escape once he returns, it''s best for you to go inside the house if you''re not well." The old mother at the side pulled open the Madame Song and said, "Look at Little Young Master running all the way here, he hasn''t washed up yet so we can have a meal. Why don''t we wash up and eat first before reminiscing about old times properly?"


    Xi Jiu Er thought that her words were interesting, and she felt that they were a little out of place. She was very curious in her heart, and only later on did she find out that Madame Song was a little crazy about children, and that her words and actions were always so out of place.


    "Right, right, right. How could I have forgotten about this?" Madame Song held onto her attacking hands tightly: "Tian''er, go, to your house. Ever since you left your house, your house''s mother has never been touched. "Come ¡­"


    Song Yun Shan''s son, Song Tian, had only turned sixteen this year and went out to study at the age of thirteen. Everyone in the Song Mansion called him Little Young Master. Firstly, he had called him Little Young Master for more than ten years, but he had not changed his name. Even though the Young Master that was born in the wild was already born, Song Tian was still called Little Young Master.


    The Song Family could be considered a family with a hundred years of history in Wind Nation, and because Song Yun Shan raised a son in an outer room, even if the Madame Song didn''t agree to it, he could not do anything about it.


    There were many paintings and calligraphy in Song Tian''s room, there were also many flowers and plants ¡­ Xi Jiu Er stood in the room and felt like she was in a dream, as if she was really Song Tian at that moment. Seeing that Song Tian did not say anything, the Madame Song thought that he was tired and quickly ordered some people to boil some water for a bath.


    "In the past, the people you served in your courtyard did not touch a single one of them. mother will now tell them to come and bathe you." Madame Song was about to call someone to stop him, "mother, there''s no need, I''ve been travelling for so many years, I''m already used to bathing by myself."


    "How can that be? You are a Young Master of the Song Family, how can you not have people serving you?" The Madame Song was a lady of a noble family, and her own son was the future heir to the Song Mansion. He continued, "You used to be a scholar, so it''s not very convenient for you. Now that you''ve finished learning and come back, don''t tell me you''re not going to allow others to serve you?"


    Of course, Song Yun Shan knew the deeper meaning behind this. He whispered: "Alright, alright, since your son is back, you don''t need to nag anymore. It''s enough that your son likes you."


    "Alright ¡­" Madame Song said unwillingly: "I''ll wash it myself today, mother will go and get you something to eat." Madame Song happily went to cook for ''Song Tian''.


    "All of you can leave. I have something to tell your Young Master." Song Yuntian solemnly said.


    Xi Jiu Er calmly sat down and looked at Song Yuntian, deep in thought. Strange, very strange. It was as if someone had arranged all this beforehand ¡­ It was as if she had to admit that she was'' Song Tian ''. No, it could be said that he wanted her to become Song Tian!


    "Little brother, I''m sorry about this matter. I really didn''t think that Madame would be here." Seeing the doubt in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, her heart was slightly startled, this young man''s reaction was fast. She concealed her coughing: "Madame is sick, and can''t take the stimulation. How about we do this, and you be my son, so that I can send you away after Madame is cured?"

 C229

    "Heh heh, Master Song''s scheme is really wishful thinking. Let me pretend to be your son? "How long are you going to pretend?" Xi Jiu Er said with a smile that was not a smile, but anger could already be seen in his eyes. She sympathized with him, but she didn''t expect that he would fall into her trap in the end! Heh!


    Seeing his wife crying silently, day after day, his body becoming worse and worse, he felt pain in his heart. At that time, it was also because of Song Tian that he was willing to leave home to study, and every single time he blamed himself, he felt extremely regretful. His son was actually already very good. It was only because he was too eager to get what he wanted that he created the current situation.


    The moment he saw Xi Jiu Er, he started to plan for it, but he did not consider how long Xi Jiu Er should pretend for. Alright, now the problem was, how long was Xi Jiu Er going to pretend for? A year or a lifetime?


    When Xi Jiu Er''s anger towards Song Yuntian saw his blank expression, it disappeared without a trace. This man did not think about this issue, right? The reason for his actions was to comfort his wife, enough to see how important Madame Song was to him. After so many years, she had seen that there were very few men who cared for their wives. Song Yuntian was a good man who loved her.


    "If you can pretend to be in Song Mansion for your whole life, when the time comes, I can give you half of my business ¡­" Song Yun Shan said firmly. This caused Xi Jiu Er to be astonished. The Song Mansion''s properties were split with half for strangers?


    Song Yun Shan looked up to Xi Jiu Er, and when the youth heard the Song Mansion''s words, his eyes did not reveal any sign of greed, instead, he stared at in silence, hesitating. He sighed helplessly, "My wife and I are childhood friends, and we are very close. Before I married her, I promised that I would never let her suffer. "But I didn''t do it, and the child only did it because of me ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er unknowingly sighed, and said lightly: "Master Song, I already understand how you treat your respected Madame. "It''s a pity ¡ª you don''t know that I''m not a man, and this face is easy for me to get!" She had not expected the change in appearance to result in this situation.


    Song Yun Shan opened his mouth wide in shock, he never thought that the young man who looked so refined and delicate, and was similar to his own son, was actually a girl, and even a disguise! Was he trying to get something out of this? He sat down dejectedly, not knowing what to do.


    "What do we do now?" Song Yun Shan muttered to himself. Xi Jiu Er sat quietly at the side, and the servants carried buckets of water in to see the scene. He thought to himself, could it be that the two of them are arguing again? Thus, the servant worked carefully. He put down the bathtub and bowed, "Little Young Master, you are ready to take a bath." A quick dodge.


    "Now that things have come to this, I have no other choice. As long as I can make Madame happy, it''s only one day. "This secret can only be known to you. I know that a third person must not know about it. When it is done, I will not lack your reward." Song Yun Shan cupped his hands: "Miss, I''ll leave this matter to you."


    Xi Jiu Er facepalmed helplessly: "Alright then, as for the compensation, it''s fine, but at that time we''ll have already discussed the way out, I hope you won''t stop me from staying."


    "Of course." Song Yun Shan was overjoyed, this girl was really magnanimous.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished bathing alone, she donned Song Tian''s long robe and looked at herself in the copper mirror. The robe was just right for him, as she dressed up carefully.


    There was a servant standing outside the door, and once Xi Jiu Er came out, he said immediately, "Little Young Master, Madame has already prepared a meal for you."


    "Lead the way." Xi Jiu Er said.


    When he arrived at the dining hall, he saw the Madame Song busily preparing food. When Song Yun Shan wanted to steal food, both of her hands were knocked off, and she shouted: "This is for Tian''er.


    "You, you''re biased." Song Yun Shan complained about Madame Song''s bias. The dishes that the Madame Song was most proficient in were usually all for her son to eat. Being able to eat the dishes personally made by the Madame Song all these years was all thanks to Song Tian. After that, Song Tian went to study, so he was even less able to eat. It was rare to have a chance to eat it, it wouldn''t be excessive if he just stealthily tried it.


    "So what if I''m biased!" Madame Song glared fiercely at her and then left. She clapped her hands and looked at her own work on the table as she smiled and said, "My cooking skills have regressed and I don''t know if it''s good food or not. I, Tian''er, like it! "Say, Tian''er must have tasted a lot of delicious food outside, do you think my food is not tasty?"


    "You''re thinking too much, Tian''er isn''t such a person." Song Yun Shan was afraid that the Madame Song would start to act arrogantly again, so he quickly comforted them. Madame Song shook her head and said: "People change. Tian''er has been gone for a few years, who knows what has happened outside."


    "mother." Xi Jiu Er smiled as she walked over. Song Yun Shan held his breath, it was so similar, so similar. However, Tian''er did not have the cold aura of the young lady, instead she was rather calm and collected.


    "Tian, come, come. mother has made your favorite food for you. Try it." Madame Song immediately pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand and sat him down, then personally picked up the dish and urged him: "Quickly try it, and see if it''s tasty."


    began to heartily eat. "mother, what Tian''er missed the most when she was outside was the dishes personally cooked by mother, and they taste the same as before. It''s really tasty." It was a compliment from the bottom of his heart, and he didn''t feel like he had spoken a single false word. Madame Song had been observing her expression the entire time, he only felt relieved when he saw that she really liked it. He smiled and said, "Tell mother what you like to eat, I''ll make it for you everyday."


    "Alright, as long as mother doesn''t have to work too hard." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Madame Song was overjoyed, who would find it hard to cook for their child? She pouted: "Child, you actually dare to speak such nonsense. Even if mother has to work hard for you, it''s worth it for the rest of your life. After pausing for a moment, he felt that his son had just returned and was educating him. He quickly said, "Let''s stop talking, let''s eat."


    "Father won''t eat?" Xi Jiu Er watched as Song Yun Shan sat at the side and gulped his saliva down. He did not look like the Patriarch at all, but more like a child.


    "Don''t worry about him, this is all done for you, it''s not his business." Madame Song gave Xi Jiu Er food as she casually asked.


    Song Yun Shan laughed bitterly, and was about to stand up and block his path, "Father is also hungry, let''s eat together. mother''s food was the most delicious ¡­ "Come, try it ¡­" Although Madame Song said that, he still placed a bowl and chopsticks in front of Song Yun Shan.


    Song Yun Shan was also obedient, the Madame Song told him not to eat it.

 C230

    Song Yun Shan was startled for a moment, then immediately sat down with a smile, picked up his bowl and chopsticks, and happily started eating while praising: "Amazing, your cooking skills have not declined in the slightest throughout these years, and still tastes the same. Tian''er, you can only blame yourself for saying it''s delicious." Song Yun Shan then used all his strength to eat, to the point where he almost choked on his food.


    "Seriously, someone this big doesn''t have any manners at all when he''s eating. Why did I pick you up from the beginning?" Madame Song immediately passed over the water. Seeing Song Yun Shan''s eyes turn red, she thought that she was happy for her son''s return. Su Yun did not know that Song Yun Shan''s current thoughts were completely different from hers, and the despair and sorrow in her heart was something only Xi Jiu Er, who was standing opposite of him, knew.


    "mother will also eat together." Xi Jiu Er asked the servant to add another set of tableware.


    had never felt the warmth of a family in the Xi Mansion before. At this moment, in the Song Family, Xi Jiu Er could feel the love of a mother, and the warmth of a family. This warmth slowly melted Xi Jiu Er''s cold heart. Maybe, staying in this home to be Song Tian was not impossible, and this was the first time Xi Jiu Er had this kind of thought.


    After the meal, the Madame Song took Xi Jiu Er and sat him down. She wanted Xi Jiu Er to tell him some of the interesting things that happened outside. Thus, he explained all the customs and customs that she had seen to the Madame Song. The Madame Song listened with relish, occasionally letting out exclamations, sometimes exclaiming in surprise, sometimes feeling alarmed, and sometimes feeling happy ¡­


    Song Yun Shan looked at the happy scene in the house, he could not maintain his smile, and turned to leave. If that person was really his own child, how great would that be ¡­ No!


    Madame Song was not in a good mood, after hearing that, she became sleepy and left with her servants. It was also when Madame Song was out of her hands that Xi Jiu Er accidentally touched her veins.


    At night, Xi Jiu Er who was lying on Song Tian''s bed suddenly laughed. She thought that sincehe had settled the matters of the Xi Family, she could freely roam the mountains and swim the waters. He never expected that he would actually be involved in the matters of the Song Family ¡­ Sigh, let''s talk about it one step at a time.


    The Song Mansion was separated into two courtyards. Song Yun Shan and the others stayed in the main courtyard. Every month, they would come to pay their respects to the Madame Song on a designated day, and every other day would be spent in the courtyard, unless there was something urgent.


    The Song Mansion had an elegant bamboo forest, and a pavilion was built within the bamboo forest. Yesterday, Xi Jiu Er had been able to observe the beautiful scenery from afar, and today, she decided to take a look. Behind them were the elders who used to be in Song Tian''s courtyard. They seemed to be afraid that their master would always follow from afar without saying a word. Later, Xi Jiu Er finally understood that Song Tian was a proud and unbridled person, and felt that following a servant was a troublesome matter, so she allowed his to follow him from far away.


    Passing by the Madame Song Courtyard, a servant girl came out carrying an empty bowl. There was still some medicinal juice left in the bowl. Under the illumination of the sunlight, the originally normal medicinal juice emitted a faint green light, which was extremely strange.


    "Is this the mother''s soup?" Xi Jiu Er took the bowl and dipped it in soup, then carefully smelled it. The smell was very strange, and the color was even more strange. Xi Jiu Er became cautious, she wiped the soup off her finger and said lightly: "Alright, you have nothing else to do, you can go now."


    The servant girl felt that this little Young Master''s personality was as weird as before.


    Xi Jiu Er turned around and went back into the house, and poured herself a cup of water, which she used to soak the handkerchief with the soup, and poured it into the water. Xi Jiu Er grabbed the sunlight and stared at the green ball, deep in thought.


    "Clean up and I''m going out." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    "Yes." The manservant outside the door said.


    was still the chef at dinner, he prepared various dishes for Xi Jiu Er. After the meal, Xi Jiu Er went back to her room early. After around an hour, the servants came to report that the little Young Master was poisoned.


    Madame Song was shocked. The dinner that she had eaten in his room today was good as well. Could it be that she had eaten something poisoned in his room? She rushed over, and when she found Xi Jiu Er safe and sound, she heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Tian, are you alright?" Seeing that Xi Jiu Er''s complexion was good, Madame Song could not help but scold the servant: "What''s going on, how could you joke about this? Which damned girl spread it? "


    "mother, don''t worry, it''s just a mild poison. The doctor has already prescribed medicine for my son. Xi Jiu Er''s eyes moistened, if her mother did not die, he would still be like his Madame Song, doting on him.


    When Madame Song saw that it was a doctor who looked unfamiliar, she became suspicious, "You are ¡­"


    "This old man is the doctor from the same hospital." The doctor did not treat Xi Jiu Er at all. On one hand, he was already safe and sound on the other hand, if Xi Jiu Er did not tell him, he would not have pointed it out to him.


    Tongren Hall? The doctors there have excellent medical skills. Madame Song was relieved. As long as she was fine, everything was fine. Her eyes reddened as she said, "Tian, mother cannot lose you again."


    "Don''t worry mother. Seeing that the doctor said that he is fine, he will definitely be fine. On the other hand, mother''s face is haggard, why don''t you let the doctors take a look? " Xi Jiu Er said.


    "What are you looking at? My physique has always been very good."


    "Not good, Tian''er wants mother to take a look, see how thin mother has become, and see if he''s alright or not. If I don''t, Tian''er will not be at ease." Xi Jiu Er tugged on Madame Song''s hand and acted like a spoiled child, causing Madame Song''s heart to feel as sweet as if she had eaten honey.


    "Oh you, if you were really that concerned, why haven''t you written a letter home after going to mother for so long? You didn''t tell mother even if you were sick, do you know how sad he is? " Madame Song became angry as soon as she said this, she flung Xi Jiu Er''s hand and stared at him in reproach.


    Xi Jiu Er said guiltily: "mother, your son knows he''s wrong ¡­ His son only thought that he was not young anymore and could not rely on mother to make him look more like a child. He did not want mother to feel sad, so he remembered his son. mother... "


    Sigh, Madame Song''s heart ached and was gratified. His own son had finally grown up and become sensible, now it was as if he had become a completely different person. Forget it, why are you angry now that he''s back?


    "Alright, then I''ll have to trouble the doctor to let me have a look." Madame Song sat down and revealed a smile on her wrist.


    ''s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that his body is not well? No, she had not been sick for many years, except for the headache and fever, and every month or so she would call a doctor to check on her. The doctor did not say anything.

 C231

    "Doctor, is there anything wrong with my mother?" Xi Jiu Er''s face was full of worry. The medicine was kept well hidden, and was hard for ordinary doctors to discover. Even good doctors would not be able to discover it, so it was no wonder that the doctors of Song Mansion did not notice it.


    How could the doctor tell? He simply followed Xi Jiu Er''s instructions and said, "Madame''s body is fine, just that ¡­ "But ¡­"


    Seeing that the doctor was hesitating to speak, Madame Song laughed lightly, "Just say whatever you want to say, there''s nothing you can''t accept."


    Madame is still young, why would she take the Scent Avoiding Elixir?


    Avoiding soup? Madame Song''s body trembled. She had always wanted to give birth to a few more children, but after giving birth to Tian''er, there had been no news at all. Many doctors said that her body had lost a lot of weight and would be able to recuperate in the future. Of course, there had been no news for so many years. He had never thought that it would be the Soup Dumplings!


    "This Soup of Avoidance is extremely tyrannical. If a woman were to consume one, she will never be able to conceive again."


    My whole life...


    "Doctor, is there no way to get pregnant?" The stone mother said anxiously.


    "There is a way. I heard that there is a Doctor Jiang who is very knowledgeable in this aspect. However, his whereabouts are unknown and it is very difficult to find him. It all depends on luck." The doctor packed up his things and got up to leave, afraid that he would be exposed if he stayed any longer.


    "Reward." The Madame Song heard her voice saying.


    stone mother immediately responded with an "Ah!" and retrieved 10 taels of silver from his sleeves to give to the doctor. The doctor looked at Xi Jiu Er with a guilty conscience and accepted the money.


    "mother, don''t be sad. You still have Tian''er." Xi Jiu Er crawled over to Madame Song and gently whispered, "Tian''er will help mother find that Doctor Jiang."


    Madame Song caressed Xi Jiu Er''s hair, but did not speak. stone mother looked over and quickly took out her kernels: "Madame, don''t be sad, don''t you still have a little Young Master?"


    "That''s right, there''s still Tian''er in mother." Xi Jiu Er took the handkerchief given to him by the stone mother and forced a smile, "Tian''er, a child is worth more than ten children." There was no way to hide the anger and sorrow in his eyes.


    Song Yun Shan tried his best to protect his wife, but in the end, his wife still fell into his trap. Who could it be? But those restless women? Or was it Song Yun Shan who was raising it in the outer room? mother, what do we do about this matter? "


    "Don''t worry about it, mother will naturally take care of this matter." The Madame Song''s eyes were cold. Xi Jiu Er thought of a tiger, but the tiger''s peaceful sleep made people feel that it was very obedient and docile. In the end, a tiger was still a tiger, and no one could move its nature.


    "Alright, how about we find a Qin Doctor for mother that day?"


    Madame Song smiled gently. "Tian''er has become more sensible after traveling for three years."


    Xi Jiu Er was thinking about whether she should tell Song Yun Shan or not. Seeing that Madame Song had an idea already, she decided to forget about it. When Madame Song returned to her room, her gentle and beautiful face instantly changed. "Investigate carefully for me."


    "Calm down Madame, all those bitches in the mansion have been causing trouble for so many years, how could they have the guts to do something like that? This old servant must say that it might be the outer chamber that has been raised outside, and it might even be able to help that son of hers gain a future. " stone mother revealed her thoughts and sneered. The outer chamber outside had given birth to a single year old son. She took this to heart, and now that her son had returned, the outer chamber was free to linger in front of her. She can''t do it! Could Song Yun Shan fall out with him for an outer room?


    "It doesn''t matter whether she did it or not, you have to investigate it first. Catching the stolen goods together is the right thing to do. If this gets out, you even say that I''m a jealous woman and won''t be able to take an outer room." Madame Song said with a cold face.


    The stone mother sighed, "Madame is just being kind. She cares too much about this reputation."


    "Now that Tian''er has returned, I have to make plans for Tian''er. Tian''er still needs to get married. If there''s a wicked woman like me ¡­" Madame Song suddenly thought of a person and her face immediately darkened. Tian''er had vowed not to marry anyone but the Zhang girl, and she did not like this Zhang girl at all. Tian''er had not returned home from her studies.


    stone mother said: Madame, this old servant''s temperament is different now that Young Master has returned. It''s said that men and women have too many opinions, and I think it''s just that I don''t think much of the Zhang Family''s Miss.


    "I hope so."


    On this day, Song Yun Shan informed the Madame Song that the Fourth Prince was going to be a guest at his residence for a few days, so the matter would be left to the Madame Song. Xi Jiu Er was surprised, Song Yun Shan''s identity was a level 3 general in the imperial court!


    Fourth Prince? The son of the Wind Nation''s King who was raised outside? I heard that many years ago, the Wind Nation''s Emperor wanted to bring him back to, but he never found him. Xi Jiu Er only heard that the Fourth Prince had a devastatingly beautiful appearance that was not inferior to a woman''s.


    In the evening, the fourth prince arrived at the Song Family with his followers. The Madame Song frowned with worry, and even the seemingly thoughtless Song Yun Shan became silent.


    A group of people stood at the entrance of the mansion. The sedan chair belonging to the fourth prince stopped, and a servant lifted up the sedan curtain to reveal a person walking down from the carriage.


    Xi Jiu Er instinctively lowered her head. It was actually Xiao Feng? What was even more shocking was Feng Qing Cheng''s true identity: the Prince of Wind Nation. Before his brain could process the situation, Song Yun Shan said respectfully: "This old official greets Prince."


    Feng Qing Cheng was gentle and refined, but Xi Jiu Er felt that he had changed. His eyes were sharp as if he was staring at prey. Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath, and had already recovered from the shock.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s gaze turned to Xi Jiu Er, and said indifferently: "I presume this is the little gongzi of Master Song."


    Xi Jiu Er clasped her hands together, "This commoner greets Fourth Prince."


    Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes flashed a look of astonishment, the man had the same temperament as Jiu Er, but looking closely, he was not Jiu Er at all. For a moment, Feng Qing Cheng was confused. The corpse in the fire had the same height and body as Jiu Er.


    "Fourth Prince? What''s the matter with you? " Song Yun Shan said.


    Feng Qing Cheng regained his senses and laughed: "Hehe, this young master of Master Song reminds me of an old friend." Song Yun Shan had been an old general for many years. His expression did not change much, and he thought to himself, could it be that they know each other?


    Song Yun Shan laughed and turned to Xi Jiu Er: "You can leave."


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er cupped her hands and said.


    Feng Qing Cheng stared blankly at Xi Jiu Er''s back, his eyes filled with unconcealable sorrow and sorrow, as though a thousand gold coins had once again flowed down his throat. Song Yun Shan calmed his expression and greeted Feng Qing Cheng well. Before the dinner party that night arrived, Song Yun Shan asked Xi Jiu Er to bring him for a stroll.


    The Madame Song came over and pulled Xi Jiu Er along as she stared at his own Master: "What are you doing? Why aren''t you bringing the Fourth Prince along to play? I don''t know where you guys are going. "Is it possible for him to go to a place like that before he gets married?"


    Song Yun Shan''s face reddened, he frequently went to that kind of place, and although there was nothing happening, the Madame in his home was always suspicious of everything, and would only rest after making a ruckus at home. If word of this got out, who would dare to invite him? This time, he could finally go out in broad daylight and have a good time. In the end, he didn''t need to accompany those who were given names!

 C232

    Having lost this opportunity, Song Yun Shan felt that it was such a pity. Although he said, "This was requested by the fourth prince. I think it''s probably because of the young people coming together." However, he was slightly worried in his heart, afraid that the fourth prince would notice something.


    "Humph!" Even if it was at the request of the fourth prince, can''t you turn down the offer? " Pointing at Song Yun Shan''s nose, he scolded, "I only have this one son, what will you do if you teach him badly?"


    "mother, I won''t." Xi Jiu Er immediately calmed Madame Song''s emotions. Madame Song treated this son of her with caution because he was doting on him.


    "That won''t happen. Hmph, you didn''t know the character of your father when he was young. That was an extremely romantic thing to do." Madame Song gritted her teeth in hatred as she thought of Master Song''s actions when she was young.


    Xi Jiu Er knew a little about Master Song''s past and pulled his hand: "mother believes in my son, my son will definitely not learn from those men." She was a woman, what was she supposed to do?


    Song Yun Shan immediately said: "I believe you." She was from the same family as her daughter, how could she like women?


    Madame Song looked at the two of them as if they were swearing an oath, and a large portion of her anger disappeared, "Alright, I will believe in my son for now." She was a woman, and said that she was selfish. She wanted her son to be among the flowers. Only in the future would she have experience in that area, and she wouldn''t be blind to see girls. Once she tasted the sweetness, she could get married as soon as possible so that she could hug her grandson. The only reason why she didn''t agree on the surface was because she wanted to be on guard and not act recklessly.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished packing, he went to look for Feng Qing Cheng. Feng Qing Cheng used to like white robes, but now, when he was wearing black, he looked extremely grave and stern. Xi Jiu Er walked over, Feng Qing Cheng seemed to be deep in thought, and his expression made Xi Jiu Er uneasy. He wanted to turn around and escape.


    After a few breaths, she regained her composure. It was not a blessing or a curse, but a curse that could not be avoided. He wouldn''t stay long. As long as he was careful, he would be able to get away with it.


    "Fourth Prince ¡­" Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and bowed. Then, Feng Qing Cheng said lightly: "It''s said that Wind Nation beauties come from the Jiang Capital. Why don''t you bring me over to see? Let me have a look as well. "


    From the tone of his voice, it seemed that he was a person from a wandering brothel. Xi Jiu Er embarrassedly flashed by, thought for a while, then said: "Reporting to the Fourth Prince, this humble one has never gone to that kind of place, so I''m not sure." An indescribable hatred arose in his heart as well. This man had been lying to him before; it was too hateful.


    "You don''t know?" Feng Qing Cheng''s voice did not sound emotional at all, as Xi Jiu Er asked softly, "Then why don''t this commoner ask about it?"


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at her quickly, and suddenly laughed: "No need, let''s go, we will go out for a stroll now." Xi Jiu Er did not understand what that smile meant, and immediately replied, "Yes."


    Only after leaving the Song Mansion did he come back to his senses. If he went to find out about Feng Qing Cheng, he would definitely be hurt, and those gossips would definitely reach the Emperor. It seems that Feng Qing Cheng still valued the Emperor''s perspective, then wouldn''t this mean that the rumors were not true?


    There were three places where the Jiang Du brothel was the busiest. There were many red brand beauty rooms, and the Clear Cloud Pavilion''s talents were outstanding. Jiang Xiu Lou''s skills were excellent. Feng Qing Cheng swaggered over to Jiangxiu Restaurant, where he found a lot of girls soliciting business in front of the entrance. The girls saw that Feng Qing Cheng was extremely handsome and had an extraordinary bearing, so they quickly waved their handkerchiefs around.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s expression did not change, the servant behind him was expressionless as he stared fiercely at the beautiful ladies, but how could those beautiful ladies see him? All of their eyes were staring at Feng Qing Cheng, as if they wanted to see a hole in them. Yo, this was the first time they had seen such a handsome man.


    Looking at the young master beside him, he was extremely handsome and refined. With a single glance, one could tell that he was a good person. If he could think of a way to become his wife''s concubine, he would definitely be happy.


    The whole street was brightly lit. The doors of every shop were open, and the faint sound of singing could be heard that stirred the hearts of the people. Arriving at Jiang Xiu Lou, the girls immediately surrounded him.


    "Aiyo, this young master is so handsome. My heart is beating like crazy."


    "Young master, I''m the best in the building."


    "Young master ¡­"


    "Young master ¡­"


    "Yo, this little brother is so pretty."


    "Young big brother, this is your first time here right? Big sister can serve you well ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and endured the pungent smell of rouge, the hairs on her entire body all standing up. At this moment, a coquettish "Ouch!" sound was accompanied by a knocking sound as a short fat woman walked down from the second floor. It was the bawd.


    With an exaggerated makeup expression, she flattered, "Welcome, young master. Your presence here really brings honor and joy to our store." There was a woman who wanted to get close to Ye Ci and get glared at by her. It was a bunch of people who didn''t have any eyes at all.


    "Young master, please enter the second floor. The best are on the second floor." The old procuress winked at Feng Qing Cheng, "Today, our Courtesan Belle is free too ¡­"


    Feng Qing Cheng ''Oh'', the old procuress had long since understood his intentions. She rolled her eyes and understood what he meant. This man was interested in Hua Kui, hence he brought Feng Qing Cheng to Hua Kui''s room. The room was covered in a transparent moonlight veil. The candle flame was shining and gave off a unique aura. Coupled with the fact that the room was filled with a sweet and pressing fragrance, walking into the room gave one the feeling of floating ethereal.


    "Piao Xiang, there''s a guest ¡­" the old bawl cried.


    "Mom ¡­" Her voice was sweet to the point where it was almost bone-deep. The gauze curtain fluttered, and a bed was placed in the room. The woman on the bed had a graceful and moving figure, and her every movement was charming and enchanting. Seeing that made people''s hearts itch in panic, the old procuress stealthily glanced at Feng Qing Cheng''s expression. Oh my god, she actually didn''t change her expression at all!


    The fragrance was clearly visible as she was wearing a long, crimson dress. Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but twitch her lips. Compared to her, she was practically ¡­


    Piao Xiang''s eyes lit up, and immediately stood up to greet Feng Qing Cheng, bowing to him: "Piao Xiang, I don''t know if you have an important guest who has come to visit, I hope that Young Master can forgive me." Her beautiful eyes darted about as she even started to embarrass herself.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the fragrance in the air again. This kind of beauty wasn''t considered good, and wasn''t very eye-catching amongst the beauties, but the seductive bones that she wore were rarely seen in the world. Xi Jiu Er was not a man, so other than admiring a woman''s beauty, she did not feel much else when she saw her.


    "Lady Piaomiao is too courteous." Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently.


    The old procuress laughed ''dubiously'', "Young Master, you two take your time to chat. We won''t disturb you any longer." As he closed the door, he winked at Xi Jiu Er and said: "This little brother, what kind of girl do you want? I promise you that you''ll be satisfied."

 C233

    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips, thought for a moment and said lightly: "Give me a song, it''s good."


    "Alright." The old procuress immediately arranged for Xi Jiu Er to enter an elegant room, and not long later, a woman wearing a long muslin dress walked in. She did not manage to see what she looked like, and Xi Jiu Er half-lay on the bed as he said: "Sing as you wish."


    "Yes ¡­" The voice was as moving as an oriole, but it ended up singing ''Eighteen Touch''. Xi Jiu Er snapped out of her stupor, "Let''s play another tune."


    "Yes ¡­" "The clear water is long ~ ~ I don''t know which one of us has kept our hearts ~ ~ My little sister''s face is flushed red, oh oh oh ¡­" As the lady sang, Xi Jiu Er frowned: "Change it."


    One of the times, Xi Jiu Er was not satisfied. In the end, she was unable to sing a single nursery rhyme. In a trance, Xi Jiu Er had already entered her dreams and was bullied by Xi Wan Rong. First Lady was hypocritical, Xi Wan Feng was fake, and Xi Hong Sheng was merciless during his childhood.


    The girl''s face was covered in tears. When she came back to her senses, she was stunned to find that the handsome young man had already fallen asleep. He had a ferocious look on his face, and she couldn''t tell what he was dreaming about. A man in a black robe stood by the bed with his hands behind his back. The woman was surprised by his face that was even more beautiful than a woman''s.


    It seemed, it seemed, that even the sleeping posture was ¡­ Feng Qing Cheng stared intently at Xi Jiu Er, and slowly stretched out his hand ¡­ Suddenly, the person on the bed opened his eyes and glared at Feng Qing Cheng, and asked coldly: "What are you trying to do?"


    "Nothing, I was just about to wake you up." Feng Qing Cheng secretly sighed as she retracted his hand and said as if nothing had happened. had already thought about it, and thought that Feng Qing Cheng definitely suspected her identity.


    "Thank you for your kindness, Fourth Prince. This humble one understands." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, he stood up and pulled up his robes, as though he had attracted Feng Qing Cheng''s attention. After his and Xi Jiu Er''s wedding, Xi Jiu Er''s daily life had always been controlled by Liu Xiang. He always liked to roll up the sides of Xi Jiu Er''s robe a few times, and in the end, he even patted his chest. This was something that he had stumbled upon by chance.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her head and saw Feng Qing Cheng''s unfathomable gaze at him. She was shocked and pretended to be calm as she asked: "What''s wrong? Is there something wrong with me? "


    "No!" Feng Qing Cheng was already thirty percent sure about Xi Jiu Er''s identity, so he didn''t expose Xi Jiu Er''s true identity. He didn''t dare to say whether or not he was Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er was very smart, if she was not caught with solid evidence, she would not admit it.


    The sky had already brightened, Xi Jiu Er tidied up his messy hair, and the result was that it got worse and worse, finally it was a mess! Damn it, it was always Liu Xiang who pulled my hair back in the past, it would take her a long time to comb a man''s hair now. It seemed like she needed to find a reliable maid.


    "Let me do it." Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes flashed slightly as she went forward to take care of Xi Jiu Er''s head of soft and shiny hair, and said indifferently: "Your hair is very good, I have never seen a man with hair like yours, acting like a woman."


    Feng Qing Cheng could clearly feel the body that was leaning slightly to his side stiffen, hearing the voice, he said indifferently: "Is that so? The Fourth Prince''s looks are the most beautiful that this commoner has ever seen, to date, this commoner has never seen a more beautiful man than Prince, looking just like a woman."


    This kind of personality was exactly the same as Xi Jiu Er''s. He had never understood why Xi Jiu Er always seemed to be fearless, but later on, she gradually understood, because she knew what she should do, and what she should avoid being contaminated with.


    Feng Qing Cheng faintly smiled as if he was very happy, and said with nostalgia: "Did you know? My wife has hair like yours, and I love it. "


    Xi Jiu Er scoffed, but then asked with curiosity: "Fourth Prince, you''re married?"


    "Yes sir!" Feng Qing Cheng laughed and asked: "Should we stop her? What kind of person is she?"


    "This commoner is not interested in the matter of the imperial concubine." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s fingertips were still touching the soft hair, she was truly unwilling to let go. "Alright." Xi Jiu Er reached out her hand to touch it, hmm, not bad! When the two of them returned to the residence, Xi Jiu Er was lying on the bed exhausted. Unfortunately, after resting for a while, she heard the servants say that the Fourth Prince had come to find him to play chess.


    Chess? Xi Jiu Er squinted her eyes, and refused: "Tell the Fourth Prince that I''m not feeling well, and that I don''t know how to play chess."


    The servant at the door was stunned. Young Master rejected him? Wasn''t this a little too audacious? The servant hesitated as he stood at the door, unsure of what to do. Xi Jiu Er saw that the shadow at the door had not dispersed, and immediately shouted: "What are you still standing there for, are you ignoring my words?"


    A baffling fire burned in her heart. Xiao Feng? Feng Qing Cheng, you sure are awesome, actually treating me as a monkey to play with? No, how could she allow Feng Qing Cheng to do as he pleased? He immediately stood up and went to the front yard.


    The servant trembled as he replied, "My family''s little Young Master said ¡­ Say that I''m not feeling well, and I won''t come! "


    With a "pa" sound, Song Yun Shan''s lips twitched. This girl really ¡­ Raising his head and cupping his hands, he said, "Fourth Prince, this old official has been unkind to him. I will go and teach him a lesson now." This child has been a wild and uneducated child for three years... Sigh, this old subject has a headache. " With that, Song Yun Shan began to complain in front of Feng Qing Cheng. Feng Qing Cheng laughed: "I like the personality of this Young Master Song."


    Song Yun Shan almost stopped and laughed awkwardly: "Fourth Prince sure is fortunate that he likes it."


    "Little ¡­ Little Young Master?" When the servants saw Xi Jiu Er walking over, they were confused. Didn''t she say that they couldn''t come?


    Song Yun Shan facepalmed. This girl had the same temperament as his own son, they weren''t kind people. He suddenly stood up and shouted, "Unfilial son, hurry up and apologize to the fourth prince."


    Xi Jiu Er''s anger from earlier was gone, and she apologized to Feng Qing Cheng: The Fourth Prince is magnanimous, and probably won''t bother about this commoner. How similar does this look to Xi Jiu Er? Feng Qing Cheng laughed happily, "It''s alright, I like the personality of the little Young Master very much.


    Song Yun Shan''s achievements in battle, although he looked as big and thick as a big old man, it didn''t mean that he was a fool. Furthermore, even if he was an idiot, he would be able to tell that there was definitely something going on between the two of them.


    Xi Jiu Er coldly snorted in his heart. Seeing the fire raging in Feng Qing Cheng''s heart, she walked to the Go board to take a look.


    Song Yun Shan was startled, he moved closer to take a closer look, no way, he felt that his chance of winning was still very high. He came back to his senses and shouted angrily out of embarrassment, "You, what do you know? It''s not over yet."


    Xi Jiu Er sat down, took out a black stone and placed it on the Go board. Song Yun Shan immediately started shouting, "No, no, it''s not like this."

 C234

    Xi Jiu Er swept her eyes across Song Yun Shan: "Watching chess is not for real."


    Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes that were filled with laughter swept across Xi Jiu Er, and a son said: "To start with, you have no regrets."


    Song Yun Shan''s words were stuck in his throat like fish bones. He felt extremely uncomfortable, so he coldly and heavily sat down. Alright, he won''t say anything anymore.


    Xi Jiu Er''s every move carried killing intent, as she forced herself to enter the country and fight with Huang Long. Song Yun Shan was completely confused by what he saw, how was this a chess game?


    Very quickly, Xi Jiu Er lost, and the other party did not obtain any benefits. Song Yun Shan was even more sure that the two knew each other. From his guess, it should be someone that Feng Qing Cheng knew outside. Could it be ¡­ Two people having a relationship?


    "Young Master Song is such a great chess player." Feng Qing Cheng said: "There aren''t many people in Wind Nation who can defeat me."


    He really could brag. Xi Jiu Er only had a good understanding of Feng Qing Cheng''s chess skills, there was no opponent in the entire Wind Nation! Pui!


    He said with a faint smile, "Is that so? This commoner''s chess skills are worthy of being called a national player? "


    "Pfft ¡ª ¡ª" Song Yun Shan spat out the tea that had just reached his mouth. He had no idea what the two of them were talking about, but did they have a point? He knew about Feng Qing Cheng''s chess skills, but there were really not many people who could be his match. He didn''t know if it was because of his identity, or if those people had intentionally lost to him, or if he truly had some ability. As for him, he wasn''t too good off, and he didn''t meet many opponents ¡­


    "What did I do to piss off the little Young Master? Why is every move of the little Young Master carrying anger and killing intent? " Feng Qing Cheng said with a serious face.


    Song Yun Shan quickly put down the teacup and said, "Fourth Prince, this is my evil son''s personality. Don''t take it to heart, I will definitely beat him up when I have the time."


    The fourth prince seemed gentle and refined, but he didn''t have a clear understanding of his personality. He wasn''t someone who could be easily provoked.


    "Fourth Prince is overthinking it. He only saw that Father didn''t believe what this commoner said, so he let him have a look. Father, Tian''er is right, right? This game of chess of yours is definitely lost. " Xi Jiu Er turned his head and said to Song Yun Shan. At this time, Song Yuntian''s face had a look of feigned anger, his head shouted without even thinking: "Nonsense, maybe I will win the moment I make a move."


    "Not necessarily." Xi Jiu Er looked at him with contempt: "I''m approaching you step by step and even after using all my strength, I still haven''t taken you down.


    Song Yun Shan''s heart was bleeding, he laughed bitterly: "You''re right, maybe I will lose after a few moves."


    "Five at most." Xi Jiu Er said as she put on an act.


    Song Yun Shan gritted his teeth and enunciated word by word: "Wu Zi, is it too little?"


    "I think San Zi lost that game of chess just now ¡­" Xi Jiu Er muttered to himself.


    "¡­" Song Yun Shan''s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He glared at Xi Jiu Er and snorted.


    Xi Jiu Er was brought by Old Sun to the teeth room. Old Sun said that all the servants in Song Mansion had been bought here. The dental granny had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Old Sun, he immediately twisted his waist and smiled, "Old Sun, I haven''t seen you for a long time. This must be the Song Family''s little Young Master.


    Xi Jiu Er made a faint ''yea'' sound, and dental granny laughed: "All my people have been prepared, little Young Master, please come this way."


    Before Old Sun came, he had warned her that Young Master Song was personally coming to pick people and that she had to take out the best. If Young Master Song became dissatisfied, she could even think of doing business with the Song Family in the future. The Song Family was generous. They would not bargain every time they came, as long as they liked to pay well.


    She also knew that if she could make the precious gem of the Song Family happy, she wouldn''t have to worry about her future business path and this reward would be huge. Even if Young Master Song didn''t understand anything, Old Sun was a smart person.


    In the courtyard of dental granny, carved chairs were placed, the fragrant tea on the table was curling up and down, a few meters away stood a dozen or so considerate people. Xi Jiu Er did not spare him another glance as she immediately sat down and drank his tea. Madame Song''s lunch was too salty.


    Oh, this Young Master Song is not easy to serve.


    When the people waiting to be sold saw Xi Jiu Er''s actions, their hearts jumped. However, when they looked at her extraordinary bearing, handsome appearance, and expensive long robes, everyone''s thoughts began to move.


    This little gongzi seemed to be around fifteen or sixteen years old, and from the attitude of the servants towards him, it could be seen that he was doted upon and cared for very much. Was there a deeper reason for him to choose a servant at such a young age? Looking for a room? If it became this young master''s room, he wouldn''t have to worry about food and clothes.


    Xi Jiu Er put down the tea cup, the dental granny immediately poured a cup and said: "Little gongzi, these are all innocent people, do you have anything to look at?"


    Old Sun looked over. Hm, these people were all good people, they looked like they were following the rules and were obedient. He was also at ease to let his Young Master choose. dental granny saw that Old Sun did not say anything and heaved a sigh of relief. For the sake of the Song Family''s young Young Master, she had spent a lot of money to buy all of these people.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at them one by one. Other than Master Song, there was not a third person who knew that she was dressed as a man. This personal servant or servant girl should be well-behaved. How could she find someone more capable than Liu Xiang when she was used to Liu Xiang serving her?


    Old Sun saw that Xi Jiu Er''s face was growing darker and darker. He walked up and asked, "Little Young Master, is there anything you''re interested in?"


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head: "There is nothing else that I am interested in, I don''t know if there is anything else in dental granny, if there isn''t I can come back another day."


    Aiya, the dental granny became anxious the moment she heard it. These were all picked by her thousands of times, how could no one take them seriously? dental granny hurriedly said, "Oh my little Young Master, what do you like? Tell me, this servant will find it for you, it will definitely satisfy you."


    Old Sun felt that this person was not bad and said: "Little Young Master, why don''t we take a look."


    "Right, let''s keep watching." dental granny immediately agreed. What''s going on, why isn''t this little Young Master interested in any of them? Old Sun had said that he had to be honest when he came. Didn''t he choose according to Old Sun''s request? If he couldn''t choose even one of them, how would he be able to go out and do business in the future?


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head and insisted, "No need, there''s no one here that I want."


    Old Sun was still clear about Xi Jiu Er''s personality. After so many years, the little Young Master was like a different person, it was hard for people to figure out what was going on. Old Sun looked at dental granny''s face that was about to burst out laughing and immediately said: "Could it be that you want to keep it for us to see? What do you mean by showing us these that are not up for grabs? "

 C235

    dental granny immediately felt wronged: "Aiyo, how could I have the guts. When I heard that it was the little Young Master who came to watch me take it out, it was all for the best. As for those people that couldn''t make it onto the stage, this old servant doesn''t dare show them to the little Young Master, for fear of dirtying my little Young Master''s eyes."


    dental granny saw that Young Master Song was a person who had his own way of thinking, and thought completely different from what he had previously thought, so he said: "Little Young Master, although the things this old servant chose for you don''t look like good, they are all capable, hardworking people with good mouths, aren''t they suitable to be by Little Young Master''s side? If those sharp-tongued people were to serve them, little Young Master would not be at ease. "


    Old Sun also knew that it was reasonable, but his own Young Master did not seem to be listening to him at all, making him anxious. Before he left, Madame Song had repeatedly warned him that it was fine if Young Master didn''t understand, but if Old Sun didn''t, it would be bad.


    "Young Master, your words make sense." Old Sun forced out a smile, "How about Young Master take a look again? If there really isn''t a place for us to switch to, then there really isn''t."


    When the dental granny heard that she wanted to change places, that wouldn''t do, if this got out, she wouldn''t be able to do this kind of business.


    "Little Young Master, you, what do you want? I still have some people, come ¡­" dental granny had no choice but to take the hold of the chest out for Xi Jiu Er to see. did not look at Old Sun, but she could see now that Young Master Song was not someone that could be easily taken care of.


    Xi Jiu Er did not even bother to look at them, as she lifted her cup and took a sip of tea. In a moment, dental granny came out with three beautiful women, one of whom Xi Jiu Er actually recognized.


    "Young Master Song, these three are all Miss s whose families have fallen. Not only are their zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting excellent, they are also involved in poetry and poetry. They are considerate people who know how to speak." These three were all her treasures. Not only did she have to raise them to be fat and white, she also had to teach them many things. Girls like them were usually bought to make room for others.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at it with interest. dental granny slapped his hand and hit it.


    That Miss Xi Jiu Er had seen her before, and similarly, she had seen Xi Jiu Er before, because they all knew of him! Xi Wan Feng called himself a high and mighty man, thinking that he was the only one who could learn those legendary Miss s. Of course, a girl who could be friends with her would feel the same way.


    The Miss stood in the middle with a resigned look on her face. She was surprised to see a handsome young master standing not too far away from her. The young master''s figure seemed to be imprinting itself onto someone.


    "Xi Jiu Er!" A loud scream came out, but Xi Jiu Er seemed as if he did not hear it, and said indifferently: "Is this the person you taught?"


    dental granny went up and gave her a slap, it was so infuriating. Seeing that there was hope, this slut shouted without any rules, if today''s matter turned out to be serious, she would definitely skin her alive.


    "Bitch, why are you blabbering so much?" dental granny slapped him again, his eyes filled with an unerasable threat: Bitch, if you ruin my plans again, I''ll immediately buy you into the brothel.


    "Hurry up and apologize to little Young Master!"


    Miss covered her face as tears streamed down. She was probably the treasure of her parents and brothers, and was extremely protective and pampered. If it were not for the Xi Family, they would not have been implicated. He himself had fallen into such a predicament, it was impossible for him to decide whether he was dead or alive ¡­


    "Cry, you''re actually crying." The anger in dental granny immediately flared up. "You still think you''re a rich Miss, don''t you? You have to remember your current identity. A lowly bastard that is even worse than a servant, your life and death are all in my hands. "If you don''t get it, I''ll sell you out tonight."


    Xi Jiu Er remained indifferent, put down the cup of tea and stood up slowly: "Uncle Sun, let''s go."


    "Aiya, little Young Master, don''t go ¡­" The dental granny rushed forward and blocked Xi Jiu Er''s path with a smile: "My good Young Master, today you will tell me what kind of person you want. If I can''t find this person, then don''t bother doing business anymore."


    "You''re being too serious." The people here are all very good, but I like to pick good people and watch the speculation. It''s nice to serve me. " Xi Jiu Er instructed Old Sun: "Uncle Sun, take a look and see if there''s anyone else the house needs. Buy it back."


    This was also giving dental granny face.


    dental granny didn''t just look highly upon Xi Jiu Er, she also knew how to conduct herself at such a young age. She didn''t have any other gongzi''s boastful attitude and she also didn''t have any other gongzi''s playboy. She said, "Young Master Song, you are an extraordinary person. I still have some people with me, if Young Master Song doesn''t mind, I will bring them here to take a look. "


    Xi Jiu Er smiled with her hands behind her back, indicating that she was right.


    The people that dental granny had brought this time were all thin and yellow faced. Their clothes were tattered and they gave off a terrible stench. dental granny covered her nose and mouth as she laughed: "Young Master Song, it''s them."


    There were a total of eight people. Xi Jiu Er saw with a glance, the person with the thinnest stature, the shortest in stature and the brightest eyes among the crowd: "It''s her."


    "She?" dental granny pursed her lips into a smile: "Men! Bring him down and wash up properly. When the time comes, don''t dirty Little Young Master''s eyes."


    That person obediently followed the servant away. Only then did dental granny heave a sigh of relief, she became more relaxed and did not feel any pain in her head anymore, what was there to look at that was pleasing to the eye. There was no helping it, this could not be blamed on anyone, who told the Young Master Song to have a different opinion from ordinary people?


    "Where is this person from?" Old Sun asked.


    dental granny scoffed, waved her handkerchief and said: "She said that she is a princess, that she escaped to Wind Nation after losing her family, and that she was sold to me." What kind of princess is this? Even if I were to beat her to death, she wouldn''t believe me at all.


    Xi Jiu Er, however, believed it. The arrogance in that pair of eyes was not something an ordinary Miss could possess!


    "Are you Xi Jiu Er?" The woman who was slapped twice by the dental granny just now said sharply: "It''s all because of your Xi Family, it''s all your Xi Family''s fault. I can''t kill Xi Wan Feng, I''ll kill you today." As she said that, she pulled out the simple and crude hairpin from her head and stabbed over, but was kicked out by dental granny.


    Staring at the miserable lady on the ground, Xi Jiu Er said coldly: "What do you mean, you kept saying that you are Xi Jiu Er, do you recognize him?"


    The girl clutched her chest and spat out some acid as she sneered, "What do you want?" He reckoned that he had been possessed by a devil just now, how could he possibly think that the young man in front of him was Xi Jiu Er? Xi Jiu Er was buried in the sea of flames. The Wei Guogong was so aggrieved that he didn''t even have a chance to fight anymore. This matter was known to the entire city, so what did she have to doubt about the life and death of the person in front of her?


    "Unfortunately, Xi Family is also my enemy. Back then, when I was travelling, I fell in love with Xi Wan Rong at first sight, but was humiliated by two people, saying that my identity is low and overestimating myself. I still bear this matter in mind. Xi Family shaming me, I have no choice but to swallow this insult. It''s a pity that Xi Wan Feng is dead and his face is disfigured. It can also be considered the punishment of the heavens for snobbish people like them. " Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were filled with hatred, making others not doubt him.

 C236

    The woman blurted out, "Xi Wan Feng is not dead yet."


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat. Why is she not dead yet! She immediately asked, "Really? "It''s best if she doesn''t die. I must personally teach her a lesson and make her look down on me."


    "After I came to the Wind Nation, I accidentally saw her once. Although she had changed her appearance, I could still recognize her. She had three black moles connected to her ear." The lady was overjoyed, seeing that the Young Master was not a kind master, Xi Wan Feng, I cannot teach you a lesson, look, there will always be people coming to teach you a lesson.


    She did not pay any attention to Xi Wan Feng''s words, and after calculating for a while, she asked: "How to address this lady?"


    "My surname is Hua Lu."


    "Flower Girl ¡ª Old Sun, buy the flower girl and settle her down. Also, give her some silver coins so that she can live peacefully." Xi Jiu Er instructed Old Sun. She did not see Hua Lu''s grateful expression, but in her heart she thought that there was still some use to it. Maybe he would have more uses in the future.


    "Young Master Xie, Young Master Xie." Hua Lu had already seen through the warmth of this world. Not only did Xi Jiu Er save her, but she also gave her a peaceful place to rest.


    dental granny did not think that she would be able to sell two of them so easily. She walked up to Hua Lu and threw the kernels away as she said: "Aiyo, you''re really lucky today to meet the Song Family''s little Young Master. He is famous for being protective of the flowers." The meaning of these words caused Hua Lu to ponder over it carefully. She had no one to rely on, and wanted to find someone to entrust her life to. of


    Thinking about it this way, Hua Lu''s thoughts moved, shshepursed her lips and smiled, no matter how she looked at Xi Jiu Er, he felt that she looked very pleasing to the eye.


    Xi Jiu Er roughly understood what Hua Lu was thinking, and it was not impossible to make use of this thought. When the matter came to an end, a lady dressed in fresh clothes walked over to Xi Jiu Er. The lady had a pair of bright eyes and knelt in front of Xi Jiu Er: "Please bestow a name to me, Young Master."


    She was around fifteen or sixteen years old, had delicate facial features, and knelt in front of Xi Jiu Er with a tenacity.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed faintly: "Look at your intelligence, you will definitely follow your duty, know what to say and what not to say, and what not to look at and what not to look at ¡­ "You can choose your own name."


    "If Young Master does not find ''Ge La'' unpleasant to hear ¡­ Servant is called Ge La. "


    "Sure." Xi Jiu Er did not have much expression, the servant girl had already chosen her own path to leave this place. Old Sun said, "Young Master only chose this little girl?"


    "It''s fine to have one on your person, but it''s not peaceful to have more people." After Xi Jiu Er finished speaking, she had already left with her hands behind her back.


    Ge La took a deep look at dental granny who was standing at the door and the dentist''s room behind him, and made up her mind that she would never come back to this place ever again. Putting away her thoughts, she sat down and saw that the youth sitting opposite him had his eyes closed. It was abnormally quiet. Was he someone who was easy to talk to? No, perhaps it was just on the surface. To know the face of a person and not the heart of a person, who would have thought that looking at Wen Jing was actually one''s temper.


    Are you asleep? Ge La heaved a sigh of relief. She should also rest for a while, who knows what would be waiting for him later.


    Song Mansion, inside the house.


    "Mmm, she''s a good person, as long as Tian likes her, she''s the best." Seeing that Ge La was someone who understood etiquette, Madame Song guessed that Ge La was probably that impoverished Miss.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "If mother doesn''t like Ge La, then send her to be a servant."


    "How could mother not like Ge La? As long as Tian''er likes mother, I like them all. " Madame Song touched Xi Jiu Er''s smiling face gently. She had seen this kind of gentleness in Xi Jiu Er''s dreams.


    Her mother, Wei Xi Er ¡­


    "mother ¡­" Xi Jiu Er choked with sobs. If Madame Song was really her birth mother, how nice would that be!


    "Good boy!" When she saw her son sticking so closely to her Madame Song, she did not agree. Back then, when she was travelling, no one could cure her son''s temper in Song Mansion, they said that he was going to go out to study and suffer. But now, she knew this was the best solution.


    Tian''er was much more sensible than before, and her mind was extremely meticulous. It really made her happy.


    Ge La did very well, she was very observant, and Madame Song was very satisfied, thinking that her son''s eyes were good enough to pick people out. Returning back to the courtyard, Xi Jiu Er saw the busy Ge La lost in thought.


    Liu Xiang... Liu Xiang... I didn''t protect you well in my previous life, but I similarly didn''t protect you well in this life ¡­


    "Young Master?" After Ge La was done packing, she realized that the person was just sitting there in a daze, with a sorrowful look, as though she was about to cry. Ge La whispered: "Young Master?"


    "Eh?" Xi Jiu Er recovered her wits, and said indifferently: "Is everything ready?" With one look, Ge La had completely organized the house. If Ge La was really a princess, then she would definitely not be at the level of a maidservant.


    "Not bad, you''ve taken good care of it." Xi Jiu Er beckoned for her to come over, and very straightforwardly asked: "dental granny said you are a princess, I don''t know if it''s true or not."


    Ge La''s eyes opened wide, she did not know what to do, but she tried her best to feign calmness: "To be honest, Ge La is indeed a princess of a small country, and her uncle killed him because of a scheme, and she escaped under the protection of a palace maid, and became Ge La."


    "You''re smart enough to know that I like the truth." Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly.


    Ge La forced out a smile. Suddenly, her chin was grabbed by someone, and facing a pair of eyes that were like black ponds, her body shivered cold: "Young Master ¡­"


    "Ge La, you are very good, you are very obedient, so I hope that the two of us can get along happily in the future. Remember what I said, pretend not to know anything, if not ¡­" Otherwise, Xi Jiu Er did not say anything. She did not need to guess to know what it was.


    "Yes." Ge La retracted her gaze, she did not dare to look into his heartless and cold eyes, they were extremely beautiful, but they were filled with ruthlessness and killing intent. Her uncle also had these eyes. Normally, he looked like a prince who had lived in peace. In the end, he mercilessly killed his brother for power.


    "I''m tired, help me change." Xi Jiu Er rubbed her temple.


    "Yes." Ge La helped Xi Jiu Er change her clothes, and her eyes slowly became big. Less, Young Master was actually a woman! When she saw Xi Jiu Er''s blade-like eyes, she forcefully swallowed her shock down and suddenly lowered her head to do what she had to do. Pretend you don''t know anything even if you see it.


    A moment ago, Ge La thought that she could live a peaceful and comfortable life, but now, he flipped her mind.

 C237

    Xi Jiu Er lied on the bed, and the sound of regular breathing could be heard every now and then, leaving behind only Ge La, who was still in a state of shock. Why is the Young Master a woman? Why? When she was taking off her clothes, she realized that the temperature of her face was different from that of her neck. The skin on her body was clearly smooth and did not leave a trace of skin on her hands, so why did the skin on her face ¡­ Unless...


    Ge La suddenly flung aside her own thoughts. She was a servant, how could she know about Master''s matters? He had warned her before about what to look at and what not to look at, and what not to say ¡­


    Ge La slapped herself in the face to clear herself up, then sat down and stared blankly.


    Xi Jiu Er had not fallen asleep, her every move was under her nose. She wanted a clever servant girl to help her hide the secret, and Ge La had done the job well. Under the attack of sleepiness, Xi Jiu Er entered into slumber.


    Inside the Madame Song''s room, the Madame Song told the stone mother to find out what was going on with Ge La, and to not bring those unclean people over to affect her own child.


    In the evening, the stone mother came back from receiving the news and said that she was only a Miss from a poor family. She had already been in dental granny''s place for a year, so there was no doubt about what the dental granny said.


    "Since Tian likes him, then let him be." Madame Song sighed, she pinched her fingers and let out a cry, scaring stone mother and asked: "Madame, what''s wrong?"


    "Tian''er is already seventeen ¡­" has also reached the age of Engagement. " The Madame Song sighed, the Engagement would probably drag it out for a year or two. Tian''er had not seen her for three years, and the mother and son pair were not close to each other in the past.


    stone mother laughed: "Madame, what are you thinking about? Do you still remember that you and I were once betrothed to each other?"


    Zhang Cui Lan? Madame Song''s expression was indifferent, she did not like this Zhang family much, nor did she hate them. The key thing was that his son had once fallen in love with Zhang Cui Lan, and even mentioned the promise of not marrying him. This Zhang Cui Lan was also infatuated with him, even though she hadn''t seen any Engagement in the past three years, she should at least be sixteen years old.


    "Madame, why don''t you bring that Miss Zhang to your residence ¡­" stone mother had already understood what she wanted to say. Forget it, as long as Tian''er liked her, it didn''t matter.


    At the same time, within the Zhang Residence, Miss Zhang Zhang Cui Lan was playing the zither in her room. The sound of the zither was like that of a mountain Liu Shui, slowly moving up and down like killing intent ¡­ Zhang Cui Lan''s expression changed following the sound of the zither, finally her coquettish face completely twisted.


    The zither strings snapped, and the zither music abruptly stopped. Zhang Cui Lan''s expression slowly recovered back to normal, as she looked at a certain place in a daze.


    "Miss, Old Madame wants you to hurry over. It seems to be an emergency." The maidservant outside the door called out. ''s mother had died young, and her father had also passed away. With the Old Madame in charge of the Zhang family, Zhang Cui Lan''s future was bleak.


    Zhang Cui Lan adjusted her mood and stood up, walking out of the room. Going to the Old Madame''s courtyard, she thought to herself, logically speaking, there should be no need for me to come looking for me. Sigh ¡ª Ever since her father had passed away from illness, the old Madame who held power had simply been displeased with her. She said that her parents had died and rumors were flying all over the place. No one dared to come up and propose marriage and seeing that she was about to become an old maid, she was truly worried to death.


    The more he thought about it, the more he hated the old Madame to death.


    In the courtyard, the servant girl at the door laughed: "The Miss is here."


    Zhang Cui Lan smiled, when she entered the house, she saw an old Madame wearing a red jacket sitting on a chair. She dressed up exceptionally well, and even took out the jewelry that she hated to part with. There were two men sitting on the chairs on either side of him. One of them was about forty years old, dressed in an uncivil and military style. The ones that looked similar to him in business were not either. They looked like ¡­ She looked like a homeless person. On the other side sat a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old. The young man''s skin was white and bruised, and it was unknown whether he was sick or not. As for his attire, it was rather particular. The fabrics were all of high quality, and the jade pendant by his waist was also of some value. If not for the pair of frivolous eyes staring at him, Zhang Cui Lan would be quite satisfied with this man.


    Zhang Cui Lan walked to the side of the old Madame and bowed, looking dignified and dignified.


    The old Madame introduced him: "Cui Lan, come, this old man is your father''s good friend. You should be calling Uncle Zhang now, and this Young Master is your uncle''s friend.


    Zhang Cui Lan smiled and bowed to the two of them. She also heard from the old Madame how Yue Yong was talented and intelligent. This time, Zhang Cui Lan looked straight at him, and immediately became even more disgusted.


    This person''s eyes were impudent, his smile was evil, and he was obviously not a good person. To say that he would take the exam and gain fame was just a joke to deceive the people of the world. She had a few Miss s that she knew talked about, saying that they would be betrothed to the Miss, and the man said that he was taking the exam to gain fame, but the woman married him in the end to find out, that the exam to obtain fame was simply a scam, and that he didn''t know a single character. The girl had originally been a daughter of gold, but after marrying her to him, her life became worse than that of a servant''s. In the end, she hanged herself and died.


    Thinking about this story, she couldn''t help but be afraid. If she were to be randomly found by the Old Madame and married to someone, what should she do? Since ancient times, it had always been the words of her parents'' matchmakers. Everything was up to her.


    After that, Zhang Cui Lan accompanied the Old Madame to listen in on their conversation, and from time to time, agreed to a few words that were neither hot nor cold. That Yue Clan Young Master didn''t say anything for a long time, she didn''t say anything decent. Even if she said a few words now and then, without any warning, Zhang Cui Lan started to look down on him even more.


    It was about time, the old Madame did not leave the two of them to eat and sent them off. When they left, the old Madame asked impatiently: "Cui Lan, what do you think about this Yue Yong?"


    Zhang Cui Lan already knew the intention of the old Madame. Was he trying to marry her to Yue Yong? Impossible, this person may look good, but her character is not good. If I marry him, I might not have a good ending. She continued, "Grandmother, your granddaughter thinks that Young Master Yue is a good person, but this is only the first time. Seeing that the afternoon is about to arrive, Grandmother will first eat. "


    The old Madame was not an idiot, Zhang Cui Lan already knew that it was hopeless when she changed the topic. However, she felt that Yue Yong was very good. She had heard that he was a filial son of a great family. Besides, he was going to take the exam to get his title. If he became a member of the Zhang Family in the future, wouldn''t that be the same as him?


    The old Madame said: "Cui Lan, Grandmother thinks that this Yue Yong is a good person and has a good family background. You are not young anymore, it is time to set the engagement. I am your Grandmother, I definitely do not have any intention of harming you. "


    Zhang Cui Lan scoffed in her heart, this old lady must have lived for at least half a hundred years, why does it look like she didn''t have any eyes? How could such a person be so blind as to not see it? No, I have to dispel all of her thoughts, and said: "Granddaughter knows what Grandmother is thinking, but Cui Lan is still young, it won''t be too late to wait for a while." Even she herself did not have the confidence to say that.

 C238

    Would the old Madame understand the meaning behind Zhang Cui Lan''s words? Her tone turned cold. "You, you are already sixteen years old. You will become an old maid if you wait any longer." Are you waiting for that little Young Master of the Song Family? In these three years, there was no news of him. Something bad must have happened to him. Why did she need to wait? "Besides, how can our Zhang Family climb up to the top of the Song Family, they won''t even look at you."


    Zhang Cui Lan pursed her lips, did not speak, and then, the old Madame continued, "It would be better to marry a man with high aspirations.


    "Since our granddaughter already knows about the Grandmother''s intentions, why don''t we take another look. In a few months time, we will be at the end of the fall exam. At that time ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan did not continue, but she already understood her intention.


    "What do you mean?" The old Madame had a temper. It was getting harder and harder to hold her granddaughter in her hands, why is she always going against him? Did your wings grow harder, hmph!


    Zhang Cui Shan scolded the old Madame harshly in his heart, and said with a pitiful expression: "Grandmother, by doing this, granddaughter is also looking for a good husband to marry to. In the future, granddaughter will be able to be filial to you. If you can''t even support yourself, how can you talk about raising a Grandmother? "


    These words were quite enjoyable for the old Madame. With a smile, she said, "You silly girl, why would the Grandmother need you to raise them? As long as you live a good life, you should be able to live a comfortable life."


    "Showing filial piety to the Grandmother is something that granddaughter should do." Zhang Cui Lan intimately held onto the Old Madame''s arm.


    The old Madame pondered for a while, then said: "Alright, wait a few months, it depends on the situation."


    Zhang Cui Lan sneered, the old thing was still thinking about him, the smile on her face became even more obedient. The matter came to an end like this.


    Fourth Prince''s Estate, Feng Qing Cheng''s bedroom, suddenly released a cry of ''Jiu Er'', causing the guard at the entrance to immediately rush in: "Fourth Prince?"


    The moonlight turned into a thin layer of gauze, and the person on the bed had jet-black hair that flowed out. Under the shadow of the moonlight, her peerless face was flustered, as if she was a lost child. Xi Jiu Er gasped for breath in big gulps as nightmares struck him. Xi Jiu Er was buried in the sea of flames as well as his children.


    Children... Children... Xi Jiu Er... Song Tian... Why did he feel that the two of them were so similar? Seeing Song Tian made him think of Xi Jiu Er?


    Deep in the night, a man''s and a woman''s soft voice could be heard from an inn. The two of them were panting and sweating, the man said, "You didn''t know that the Song Family''s little Young Master is back, right?"


    The woman was shocked. "What? Young Master Song is back? Isn''t he dead? "


    "Dead? Just nice to be alive. " The man took a deep breath and caressed''s body: "Someone above said that they want me to think of a way to bring Zhang Cui Shan down to the Song Family. Their goal is to investigate Song Yun Shan''s background."


    The woman had always known that there was someone on top of this man. As for who it was, she hadn''t known for so many years. She didn''t ask and directly asked, "What do you need me to do?"


    "Just pass this news to the Zhang Family."


    This was simple, but it was just a matter of traveling for a bit. A woman shouldn''t be that big of a deal. The next morning, the woman went to the Zhang Residence. In the afternoon, she went to the Zhang family and went straight to the old Madame.


    When the old Madame heard that the Young Master Song had returned, he was really shocked. After not seeing any news for three years, she just came back. She immediately ordered the maidservants by her side to go and find Zhang Cui Shan.


    The servant laughed happily and went to find Zhang Cui Lan, she was so happy that it looked like it was something important. Who in this house didn''t know that Young Master Song loved Miss? They thought that Miss would find someone to marry and find a time to come back to Young Master Song. In the future, Miss would be the Song Family''s Madame ¡­ Her status was unspeakable.


    This Zhang Cui Lan was extremely annoyed, and it was not just for her marriage, the old Madame had found a few young masters for her, and each one of them had a lower status than the last, how could she be willing? If Young Master Song came back, she could marry him, why would she marry a man that was unconventional?


    "Miss, Miss, this is a joyous occasion, a joyous occasion!" Suddenly, Zhang Cui Lan heard someone shouting outside the courtyard. She almost tore that mouth apart. If not for the fact that she was worried about the people in the courtyard of the Old Madame, she would definitely have given them a good punishment.


    "What''s the matter? Look at how happy he is." He must have found a guy to go in the house for a blind date. Zhang Cui Lan was unresigned in her heart. She hated the old Madame to the extreme, yet she had no choice but to pretend to be obedient in front of him. She was afraid that if she really got angry and found someone to marry him, she would be ruined for life.


    "Song, Song, Young Master Song has returned."


    Clank, the tea cup in Zhang Cui Lan''s hand shattered. She, what did she hear? Young Master Song is back? When the servant saw the look of disbelief on her face, she laughed and said: "My good Miss, you are here today."


    "He really came back?" Zhang Cui Lan asked again, in disbelief. If she came back, she would definitely be able to escape the Sea of Bitterness and marry to the Young Master Song. However, his heart skipped a beat. After not seeing her for three years, her heart had changed?


    "Indeed. Miss will follow Servant to see the old Madame. The old Madame is looking for you. " The maidservant smiled.


    The matter of the Avoiding Soup, master and servant following the vines and finding the culprit, was indeed the outer room that Song Yun Shan reared outside!


    "stone mother, I''ll leave this matter to you." At that time, her son''s life and death was unknown, but Song Yun Shan keeping an outer room for her son was already enough to make her feel cold, and what made her cold was that the outer room had pregnant and dared to provoke her, if it wasn''t to not leave any traces, she would have already taken care of her.


    He didn''t expect to get himself some kind of medicine to avoid it. It was truly hateful. This time, he had made a clean account of himself along with the things he had done the previous few times.


    stone mother knew what the Madame Song was thinking and left with his men. They bumped into Xi Jiu Er outside, and quickly left after greeting him briefly.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes flashed with understanding as she followed behind stone mother. She played with the bead curtain in her hands as if she was chanting buddha, but her face did not have the slightest hint of piety.


    stone mother came to an elegant courtyard, she got someone to directly smash open the door and shouted: "Block the exit for me, no one is going out."


    The servants in the yard were playing with the children, and the moment they saw the child, they immediately carried him into the house. The child''s crying came from inside, accompanied by the gentle voice of a woman. stone mother stood in the yard and waited. Not long later, a lady walked over leisurely and smiled: "Oh, it''s stone mother.


    "Why?" The stone mother did not bow, but stood in front of the lady and laughed coldly: "You truly have guts to actually dare to harm the Song Family''s Grandmother, I came here today to take care of you."


    The woman''s expression changed and panic flashed across her eyes. "I don''t know what you''re talking about. I don''t dare to kill my master. I won''t agree if you force me to do so."

 C239

    stone mother sneered: "Hmph, guilty evidence? Even if there is no evidence, I will kill you today! This is also Madame''s intentions. Little Young Master has already returned home today, don''t think that you are as carefree and carefree as you were in the past. "


    "Impudent!" Even though I was raised in an outer room of the Master and gave birth to a son, I am still half a master of the household. "You are just a servant, that''s why I didn''t bother with you before because of the Madame. If you dare to hurt us two, mother and son, I will definitely not let you off." The woman shouted, her eyes filled with ferocity.


    stone mother spat and ridiculed: "You''re still half a master, you think you''re worthy? Without even looking at herself, she started to boast. If you die today, your son will continue to live under the name of the Madame. As long as Madame and little Young Master are here, don''t even think about stepping half a step into Song Mansion. " stone mother was very clear about how vile this woman was, and spoke of her sore spot.


    Initially, she had thought that by giving birth to her son, she would be able to take advantage of her son''s reputation to enter Father Song. However, as the child slowly grew older, she realized that Song Yun Shan did not have any intentions of bringing her into the palace. Even if she insisted again and again that she would behave herself, Song Yun Shan would not let her go. This time, she was truly afraid. What if Song Yun Shan left the child in the Madame Song''s care and she ended up with nothing ¡­ She did not want this to happen, and she would not let it happen. That was why she tried so hard to use this pill. Not only would it prevent a girl from having children in her entire life, the moment the third pill was consumed, it would become poison ¡­ Without anyone knowing, he had managed to take care of the Madame Song.


    Who would have thought that in just a few months'' time, he would be discovered? She could not admit defeat, and did not dare to do so either.


    "I think there must be some kind of misunderstanding. I have never plotted against Madame and definitely want to blame me for it. stone mother, I have been together with Master for around a year now. If you really wanted to kill Madame, you would have done so a long time ago. The woman said in a soft voice, "I was pregnant back then, so I shouldn''t have disliked you. I only wanted to fight for the identity of my own son, but Master already told me clearly that if I were to continue on like this, I will be raised by him. I already know what I''m going to do, so I definitely won''t think about anything else. "


    stone mother had been indifferent from the beginning, and even with what she had said, it did not hide the fact that she had drugged Yun Che. The woman did things stealthily and did not have any clear weakness. If she had a clear weakness, Madame Song would have already told Song Yun Shan to deal with it and would not send the stone mother to deal with her.


    When the lady saw that the stone mother was determined to take care of her, she knew in her heart that they did not have any evidence, so if they had one, they would directly look for Song Yun Shan to deal with it. Having thought through this, the woman was no longer afraid. She sneered: "Wow, didn''t you say I murdered Madame? Then take out the evidence. Let''s go to the Master and find out where to start. "


    "Hmph. I don''t want to waste my breath on you. Come here, tie them up." stone mother had already made up her mind.


    A few meters away from the courtyard, Ge La saw a little girl sneakily running out. She immediately let Xi Jiu Er see her, and said: "Catch her for me."


    Ge La was startled, was she instructing her? Immediately running over, she pulled the little girl''s hair and smashed towards her head. This was a move that Ge La had learned from eating too many things. Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and pulled out the thing in her bosom. It was a bag of items, and when she opened it, he saw that it was a medicinal herb.


    The servant girl had never seen ''Song Tian'' before, so she immediately screamed: "What are you doing, do you want to kill me in broad daylight?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Ge La, and even after thinking about it, she still could not understand what Xi Jiu Er meant.


    "Tie her up. Let''s go watch the show." Xi Jiu Er said.


    "Let me go, let me go." The servant girls could be compared to Ge La, but Ge La had probably just been a princess and had been through tough times. With one look, the servant girl could tell that she was used to living a comfortable life, and was not a match for Ge La''s strength.


    A woman screamed from the door: "You dare, I already sent someone to notify Master, you said I framed him, without evidence, I won''t admit it."


    When the old granny at the door saw that Xi Jiu Er had arrived, she was just about to salute him when she was stopped by Xi Jiu Er and made them keep quiet.


    There was a woman tied up with all sorts of things in the yard. She was pretty good-looking, and her figure was also pretty good. At the moment, he was baring his fangs and brandishing his claws at stone mother, his face filled with rage and hatred. stone mother asked coldly: "Let me ask you, was the Madame''s Soup of Avoidance created by you? If you answer straightforwardly, I will spare your life."


    She would not foolishly admit that she had fallen into his trap since he had no proof at all. He then said, "No, don''t slander me."


    stone mother sneered: "I already knew that you wouldn''t admit it. This is a confession letter ¡­" stone mother took out a piece of paper and unfolded it.


    The woman said fearfully, "What are you doing? It is illegal for you to do such a thing. I''m not guilty at all... I am not guilty! " She had pressed a fingerprint on the confession, which was tantamount to admitting it.


    stone mother took out the red mud again, but it was useless for the lady to break free. She could only scream, "No, I didn''t do it, I don''t know anything."


    "Shut her up and bark like a dog." stone mother said in disgust.


    stone mother brought her confession letter and red mud along with him as she walked towards the lady. The lady opened her eyes in fear and shook her head violently, while yelling non-stop. She really did not think that the Madame Song would come to this, so her understanding of the Madame Song was completely wrong. Sign the pledge, she had nothing, nothing.


    "Please wait, stone mother." Xi Jiu Er stopped him at this moment.


    stone mother was startled. Little Young Master? Why was he here? She immediately said: "Little Young Master, this is the outer room that had given Madame medicine to avoid children. Today, this old servant has come to properly teach her a lesson."


    The stone mother didn''t want his own Young Master to be contaminated by the shadows in the backyard, so she smiled and said: "Little Young Master, go outside and wait for me, this old servant will be fine after a while."


    "No need, this woman dares to poison mother, as her son, how can I let the culprit get away scot-free? stone mother, admitting your wrongs and betting is just a walk in the park, mother''s anger has not come out yet. " Xi Jiu Er truly liked the Madame Song. Her current identity was'' Song Tian '', and at the same time that she enjoyed being in Song Tian''s possession, she had to pay Song Tian back.


    stone mother was stunned, then said: "Everyone says that the family is ugly, and if news of mother being schemed against by the outer chamber spread, mother''s face would also be shamed."


    stone mother clapped her hands, that''s not it!

 C240

    "Little Young Master has thought it through so well, this old servant has been negligent. "According to Young Master''s meaning ¡­" The stone mother broke out in a cold sweat. Luckily he had been stopped, and his reputation would be tarnished, and even though he was an old man, he would not be able to take the blame.


    "Lock her up, don''t give her food or water." Xi Jiu Er instructed.


    "Little Young Master, I have never plotted against Madame, it must be someone else slandering me. Quickly go find that person, that person wants to sit on the sidelines and watch the fight while his left hand takes advantage of the situation. " The woman had never seen the Song Family''s Little Young Master before, she only heard that he brought along a silkpants on a whim. Song Yun Shan and the others couldn''t do anything about him as they were like a little overlord at home.


    Xi Jiu Er stood with her hands behind her back, and disdainfully said towards the woman''s words: "Just now I caught a servant outside, and found some things in her bosom. I think giving this thing to father is enough to explain everything."


    The woman''s face instantly became deathly pale. Xi Jiu Er sneered: "stone mother, bring her in."


    The girl bit her lips as she stared at Xi Jiu Er, who slowly walked over and suddenly slapped her with such force that she retreated a few steps. Everyone quieted down ¡­ stone mother responded with a curse: "You slut, how could you glare at little Young Master?"


    "Haha ¡­" The woman sneered: "Little Young Master, that thing basically doesn''t mean anything. Master knows my character, I definitely wouldn''t do something like that."


    "Yeah, because you hid it very well, and your disguise was flawless. But you neglected that Song Yun Shan is also a man. I don''t think any man would like the person beside their bed to have a fake mask and a heart like a snake and scorpion. What''s more, you''re just a tool for father to reproduce. Since the child has been given birth, what use do you have? Can you enter the Song Mansion? If he could have entered, he wouldn''t have to wait till now. Can you give your child an honorable status? No, you can''t do anything, you can''t get anything, and you dream of stepping into the heavens to replace the Madame Song? You truly overestimate your own abilities. Let''s see which one of the concubines in Song Mansion has a higher status than you. You can even be a Madame Song, what a joke. "


    The woman''s face turned ashen at Xi Jiu Er''s harsh words. That''s right, her status was just a daughter of a small merchant, and was born from a concubine. In order to become a high ranking Madame in the Song Family, she must be dreaming. But ¡ª what was wrong with her giving up everything in order to get what she wanted? Humans could not kill themselves, this was an immutable law. She was not the Buddha, so she did not have such a good Bodhisattva heart. She wanted to plan for herself and her child''s future! Therefore, she wasn''t wrong!


    "Yes, so what if I was born lowly? So what if you plan for yourself? " The woman let out a cold snort, raised her head, and looked at Xi Jiu Er proudly: "I''m not like you guys who were born with everything."


    "Bullshit, you weren''t born well, so what''s the difference between you and stone mother?" Xi Jiu Er scoffed, "You''re just finding an excuse for your own power. People who are more unfortunate than you are everywhere. Look at those who don''t have enough to eat or wear, and look at you again. You can say that this is fate, and that they won''t fight for it, right? "Then I can tell you that this is also your life. Even if you want to fight, it will be in vain."


    "Hmph, if you were to become the wife of a proper family, perhaps I would be more polite to you. Unfortunately ¡ª" The stone mother disdainfully said: "Someone, tie her up. You are not allowed to eat or drink."


    "Yes."


    The lady stared at Xi Jiu Er fiercely. Xi Jiu Er had seen many of these tricks, so she handed the medicine bag in her hands to stone mother along with the servant girl, and passed the instructions to Song Yun Shan. stone mother hesitated for a moment before he accepted it.


    It was over! Xi Jiu Er led Ge La onto the main street, and looked at the bustling main street for a long time without being able to recover from her shock. She left her homeland and came to the Wind Nation ¡­ Suddenly, Ge La pulled her and shouted: "Little Young Master, be careful."


    Xi Jiu Er regained her senses, and a carriage passed by in front of him. The wind blew the curtain up, and what entered her eyes was a peerless face, a face that could topple cities and topple empires. This face was extremely familiar to Xi Jiu Er, her body swayed slightly, and she asked with much difficulty: "Who is the owner of this carriage?"


    Ge La didn''t understand why Xi Jiu Er had such a huge reaction. She looked at the carriage and said, "This seems to be the Fourth Concubine''s carriage."


    "Fourth Concubine? How come I''ve never heard of it? " Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned her head, and stared fixedly at Ge La, as if she was going to eat Ge La whole. Ge La was so frightened that she stammered, "The Fourth Concubine went back to the Wind Nation with the Fourth Prince. The rest of the Servant s are completely unaware."


    Alright, alright, what a good plan. Yan Er... Yan Er was actually the Four Great Imperial Concubines! She would not believe that Yan Er and Feng Qing Cheng had true love, because no man could stand seeing his wife in another man''s bed. It could only mean that the scam ¡­ It was all a scam. Why did Yan Er come to find him? It must be because he was profitable.


    The Imperial Jade Seal!


    Xi Jiu Er was suddenly enlightened. That''s right, what they wanted was the Imperial Jade Seal. Hehehe ¡­ She had schemed against others, but was schemed against by others. Ge La did not know that Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed, and only felt that this smile made her feel extremely gloomy.


    On the way back, Xi Jiu Er was still smiling faintly. Feng Qingyun didn''t seem to care about anything, as if the person who had lost control earlier wasn''t her. Ge La felt that this girl was not simple, anyone who could change their expression and remain calm could do great things.


    She didn''t know whether it was the day of death or the lucky day that she would be leaving today, but at the same time she saw Yan Er, she actually saw someone that she would never have dreamed of ¡ª ¡ª Xi Wan Feng. Xi Wan Feng had changed a lot, she was like a dagger that was smeared with poison, the gloominess in her eyes was even deeper than before, a cold smile hung from the corner of her mouth, causing people''s hearts to turn cold. Xi Wan Feng was the one who told him the truth, and at that time, he would already be prepared for it. But surprisingly, Xi Wan Feng''s forces were very strong ¡­ There were a total of eight servants following behind that luxurious sedan chair. She could not help but wonder, just what was her current status?


    "Do you know her?" Xi Jiu Er asked Ge La coldly. Now, it seemed that she wouldn''t be at ease until she saw Xi Wan Feng''s death with her own eyes.


    "I don''t know, Servant will go ask around right now." Ge La trembled from the hatred in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes. Ge La could not endure such hatred and rushed to investigate in a panic.


    Xi Wan Feng''s palanquin grew further and further away. Even though he knew that the servant did not see Xi Jiu Er, he still stared at him for a long time. The news that Ge La had brought shocked her greatly as she flew. Xi Wan Feng had become the concubinage of the Prime Minister of the Wind Nation. After hearing this news, Xi Jiu Er was overjoyed. concubinage... Right now, she was Song Yun Shan''s son, and her status was much higher than a concubinage. She would sometimes need an identity to deal with her.

 C241

    Xi Wan Feng, we have a long way to go. I won''t let you off so easily this time. Just you wait, we''ll meet again very soon.


    But unexpectedly, after returning, he met the girl that ''Song Tian'' liked, and could not help but support his forehead: "Tell Madame to tell him that my body is not feeling well, and that he should not be disturbed."


    The people that came were the two of them, Madame Song knew that they were coming, and her expression was not well. She had previously remembered the Zhang family''s cold heart''s behavior in her heart, and now that Tian''er had returned, she eagerly rushed over. Hmph, even if Tian''er insisted on coming, she would still oppose this marriage. This Zhang family was going to be in big trouble in the future.


    The one who came this time was the Old Lady Zhang, she had to personally welcome him no matter what. The Old Lady Zhang at the door did not have any intentions of entering the house, she was waiting for someone with a walking stick.


    Madame Song scoffed in her heart, and looked at Zhang Cui Lan who was at the side. She used to think that Zhang Cui Lan was a beautiful person, but now that the Zhang Family was down and out, Zhang Cui Lan''s dressing and appearance were no longer as good as before. She no longer had the air of a lady from a noble family, and her appearance had become much colder.


    After the Madame Song welcomed the two into her residence, she smiled and said, "Hey, I heard that the little Young Master is back. Why didn''t you see him?"


    Zhang Cui Lan secretly hated that she could not speak, if that was the case, the other party would definitely be unhappy. It was said that the weasel had bad intentions in paying respects to the chicken.


    "Tian has just returned, and I feel unwell as I fell asleep." The Madame Song said indifferently.


    "Is that so? Did it matter? Let Cui Lan go take a look. This time, we came because we want to see the little Young Master. Three years later, Cui Lan ¡­ You also know that when Young Master Song promised Cui Lan to marry her, there was no news of his for the past three years. "No, he''s back now." Old Lady Zhang laughed, while Zhang Cui''s face immediately turned red.


    Madame Song said indifferently: "Tian''er got someone to speak up just now, saying that she doesn''t want anyone to disturb her." He paused for a moment before continuing, "It''s not my place to meddle in the affairs of these youngsters, as long as Tian''er likes it." She put the words down first, and then she would say something else.


    Old Lady Zhang waved her hands: "It''s fine if I let Cui Lan see, sooner or later, Cui Lan will marry into the Song Family. When Young Master Song saw Cui Lan, who knows how happy he was. "


    Madame Song said indifferently: "Now that the children are at the age of Engagement, those that should be avoided are still avoided. If word of this spreads, it will be bad for everyone." Glancing at Cui Lan, the latter''s face turned pale white.


    Old Lady Zhang''s heart suddenly had a few twists and turns, her attitude seemed to have changed! She came this time because she wanted to fix this marriage so that she wouldn''t have too much trouble.


    "Cui Lan, take out the pastries you made and let Madame Song have a taste." Old Lady Zhang laughed: "This child still remembers your favorite pastries. Before coming over, he made some for you.


    The servant handed over the box. Madame Song went over to take a look, hmm, it looked pretty good. Unfortunately, it was made by Zhang Cui Lan, so no matter how tasty it was, it would never have the mood to eat it.


    How could the Old Lady Zhang not understand that the Madame Song did not like them? However, for the sake of this marriage, she didn''t want this old face anymore. She smiled and said, "This girl is worried that you don''t like her. She did it many times."


    "Hehe, looks like I''ve exhausted myself on the way here. Men, bring Old Lady Zhang and Miss Zhang to rest." The Madame Song ordered, she wanted to send the two away as soon as possible, so that she could have some peace and quiet.


    The servants were all very respectful to and Old Lady Zhang, this made the two of them enjoy it, and made the marriage even more certain. At that time, Song Yun Shan was only a fourth stage official, but he had now become a third stage official.


    However, in the eyes of the servants, their own little Young Master was threatening not to marry anyone but the Miss Zhang. They are, ah, Zhang Cui Lan treated them as future Junior Madame, and this Old Lady Zhang is obviously going to be their future clan.


    "Hmph, you saw the Song Family''s attitude this time. We must find a way to arrange this marriage in order to avoid any changes." Old Lady Zhang squinted her eyes.


    Zhang Cui Lan bit her lips as she prepared for the worst. What if Song Tian didn''t like him anymore? When she thought of this possibility, she felt that she no longer had the courage to continue living. She didn''t want to marry and lead a life without servants. She wanted to live a life that could only be given to her by the Song Family.


    "What if this marriage doesn''t work?" Zhang Cui Lan looked at Old Lady Zhang nervously. She was counting on her.


    Old Lady Zhang said with a victorious look: "What do we do? The raw rice has turned into cooked rice, it''s impossible for their Song Mansion to renege on their debt. "


    Zhang Cui Lan''s face turned red, and she clenched her teeth.


    And because the Madame Song was not in a good mood when they arrived, before the stone mother had returned, a wave of worry rose in her heart. Could it be that something happened? Also, Song Yun Shan did not come back, which made her even more uneasy.


    When it was almost dinner time, Song Yun Shan returned with stone mother following closely behind. Madame Song sensed that something was amiss and ordered stone mother to explain in detail what had happened.


    stone mother could only say slowly: "Master knows that in the future, if I let the outer room die from drinking poison wine, the child Master will be kept by others."


    Madame Song was stunned, she never thought that the matter would develop in such a way, and was even more surprised that his son would intervene in this matter. This time, Madame Song was very satisfied with Song Yun Shan''s way of doing things, and what his own son had done was also very considerate.


    During dinner time, Ge La reported to Madame Song, "Little Young Master is having a deep sleep, I want Servant to take the dinner back to my room for dinner."


    Madame Song was overjoyed. Did his son''s various actions mean that he was not interested in Miss Zhang? She just said that young people didn''t know how to love, and would only understand young people''s ignorance when they were older. Furthermore, he had been travelling for three years, so he had seen all kinds of girls outside. When he looked at Zhang Cui Lan again, it didn''t matter.


    "This child is so arrogant. He clearly knows that there are guests that have come today, yet he is still so willful." The Madame Song scolded half-truthfully, causing the servants to bring all the food that ''Song Tian'' liked into the house.


    Song Yun Shan ate at the side without saying much. After quickly finishing his meal, he took his leave. Madame Song knew that Song Yun Shan did not like Zhang Clan''s people, so he grumbled a little: "Come, come, come, let''s not care about them, we''ll eat by ourselves."


    No matter how delicious the dishes were, it was difficult to swallow the two of them. The attitude of the three people of the Song Family, especially Song Tian, made them panic. Old Lady Zhang could not even laugh out loud, Zhang Cui Lan lowered her head with a pitiful look.


    Madame Song ate very well for dinner, and was in a good mood, so it was good to eat. When night came, the husband and wife talked about private matters. Madame Song was worried: "Do you think that my son will fall for the Zhang Family''s daughter?" She was afraid that her son would appear out of nowhere, and no one would be able to stop him.

    "Don''t worry, our son won''t fall for Zhang Cui Lan." Song Yun Shan said with complete certainty: "Tian''er has already told me. He no longer has that obsession with the Miss Zhang back then." How could a woman like a woman?


    Madame Song was relieved. Song Yun Shan turned his head to look at Madame Song, and a burst of bitterness arose in his heart. Tian''er ¡­


    On the same night, the Zhang family''s ancestors began to discuss strategies. It was not shameful to cook rice, but sometimes, it worked, didn''t it? Old Lady Zhang used her identity as an experienced person and said: "You actually don''t want to do this unless you''re a stranger. This kind of method is looked down upon by the large families, and even the rank of a dwarf cannot be used to speak in the future."


    Zhang Cui Lan also understood this logic, and asked softly: "Then does Grandmother have a good idea?"


    If his granddaughter married well, would she lose her advantage in the future? Old Lady Zhang muttered to himself, "For now, you can only stare at him without moving an inch away, act spoiled towards him and demonstrate your talents. Show Song Tian anything that you like about you in the past, and remind him of his promise back then. "


    Zhang Cui Lan thought that at the moment, she could only find a way to use it and happily said: "Grandmother has her own ways."


    "Go to sleep, go ahead, dress up beautifully and go see Song Tian. You hid for a day yesterday, then you''ll definitely appear today. If you don''t, then go look for him." Old Lady Zhang Dunton instructed: "If you want to marry Song Tian, you have to be more thick-skinned. Don''t be afraid to stick around, I say that if you want to woo the girl, the man will be separated by a layer of veil. As long as you have this intention, this Song Tian will become your person sooner or later."


    Zhang Cui Lan nodded her head: "Don''t worry Grandmother, Cui Lan will definitely think of a way to marry into the Song Family!" She only had this goal, if she didn''t succeed, she would die.


    "Mm, it''s up to you." The Old Lady Zhang laughed.


    On the morning of the next day, Zhang Cui Lan dressed herself beautifully, put on the best makeup, and drew an exquisite face. She chose to wear the blue that Song Tian liked the most. After tidying up properly, she paid Song Mansion''s servants quite a bit, "Do you know what little Young Master does every day?"


    "This... Little Young Master doesn''t know what he does all day, but every morning he would go to the garden to take a seat before eating. " The maidservant said.


    "Is that so?" Zhang Cui Lan immediately brought his servant to the flower garden, planning to meet her by chance.


    In the flower garden, Xi Jiu Er was researching a chess book, frowning as she stared at the chess board without saying a word. Ge La raised her head and said softly, "Little Young Master, Miss Zhang is here." Last night when she went to the dining hall, he saw this Miss Zhang, but it was only so-so.


    Xi Jiu Er ''mm'', put down the board and looked at the woman who was walking towards him while twisting her waist. Her expression was as calm as a bowl of water, and did not cause any ripples. There was only a strange feeling in her heart, because this woman was the one that ''Song Tian'' had sworn to marry and she was now Song Tian.


    After carefully sizing up Zhang Cui Lan, Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes and thought to herself, This Song Tian''s eyesight isn''t very good, she likes this kind of vulgar woman too!


    Zhang Cui Lan could see a young man wearing a long robe sitting on a stone bench in the garden from far away. The coldness between his eyebrows made her feel timid when she looked at him. Just standing by her side, she pierced Zhang Cui Lan''s eyes with his maidservant. Yesterday night, she realised that this maidservant was very beautiful, his temperament was similar to a Miss, and the jealousy in her heart started to roll.


    "Little Young Master." Zhang Cui Lan had practiced his smile many times before she came here, and Song Tian had always liked her shy smile that didn''t leak any trace of it.


    Xi Jiu Er glanced at the smirk on her face, then nodded her head: "Is there something wrong with Miss Zhang?"


    Zhang Cui Lan felt as if she had been ruthlessly slapped. Her face was red and white, and her smile could no longer be maintained, as she bit her lips and spoke with great difficulty, "Little Young Master, you, you always called me Cui Lan ¡­"


    "How could a man easily call a woman by her maiden name? I was being reckless previously, I hope that Miss Zhang can forgive me. " Xi Jiu Er stood up and cupped her hands in apology, it could be seen that she was sincerely apologizing.


    Zhang Cui Lan''s entire person was in a bad mood as she stared at Xi Jiu Er with grief and grief. It was a pity that the ''Song Tian'' in front of him was a woman, and a very vicious woman at that.


    Xi Jiu Er sat down again, opened up the chess board and began researching again. If it wasn''t for this, Yan Er would have never ¡­ Xi Wan Feng... There was also Feng Qing Cheng, especially when her image of Feng Qing Cheng appeared in her mind all day, she almost wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood. In his entire life, no one had ever lied to him like this ¡­ She almost ¡­ I almost fell in love with him. She felt that she was already a fool, and had been thoroughly used by others when she was using Feng Qing Cheng.


    Zhang Cui Lan was a little powerless as she sat opposite him. "Little Young Master, what are you looking at?"


    Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to bother with her. Ge La stared at the chess board and board. She knew a little chess, and had read quite a few of them in the past few days.


    Zhang Cui Lan''s face was as red as a monkey''s ass, she tightly gripped the kernels and didn''t know how to reply. The other party clearly didn''t like her, it would be too disgraceful of her if she continued sticking close to him. However, thinking of the reason for her visit, if she did not succeed, he would die!


    "Little Young Master, you have been gone for three years. Cui Lan has been missing you every day. For a girl that hadn''t left the pavilion to say that she wanted a man so blatantly meant that she had already abandoned everything.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Miss Zhang, you can''t speak carelessly about this. Those who don''t know what''s going on, would think that we''re betting our lives on ourselves."


    Zhang Cui Lan could no longer control her shame and anger as she said, "Little Young Master, why did you treat me like this? You once said that you wouldn''t marry me, and I waited for you to come back and marry me after you traveled for three years. However ¡­ But you ¡­ "Do this to me!"


    As she spoke, two streams of clear tears flowed down her face, she stared at Xi Jiu Er accusingly, the injuries in her eyes would cause any man who saw her to feel pain in their heart.


    Xi Jiu Er did not know about the matter between Song Tian and Zhang Cui Lan, so she said: "This Song missed Miss, and is not my fault, so today, I shall pay my respects and apologize to Miss. "If you don''t mind, I can find a husband for you."


    "Wuu ¡­ wuu ¡­" Song Tian, you, you are going too far. The entire capital knows that I, Zhang Cui Lan, am about to become your wife, so how can I endure such a thing? " Zhang Cui Lan trembled as she pointed at Xi Jiu Er, the despair and sadness in her heart not lying.


    Xi Jiu Er sighed: "Living your own life, what need do you have to care about the opinions of others? To live for someone else''s opinion, what''s the difference between this and a play? "


    Zhang Cui Lan continued to embarrass herself with Xi Jiu Er, she was overcome with grief: "Alright, alright, since you are being so heartless, I will no longer have to live."


    "Miss Zhang, are you looking for death? I feel ashamed of such a woman. " If your life was so worthless, why would others treat your life as money?


    Zhang Cui Lan held onto her chest, she had never been humiliated like this before, and almost vomited a mouthful of blood. , you ¡­ you''ve gone too far. "

 C243

    With that, he covered his face and left. Xi Jiu Er frowned, then went to Madame Song''s room to understand Song Tian and Zhang Cui Lan''s past.


    "At that time, I didn''t know if you were possessed or not. No matter what, you had to like her, and she still married you." Your father and I were helpless when this matter became known to the entire city. At that time, both of you were still young, so you weren''t old enough to get married. Later on, you stayed away from school for three years. The people of Zhang family thought that you were dead, so they didn''t take your words to heart and wanted to climb up to higher heights. "In the end, a moment of carelessness did not result in the marriage, and the Zhang Clan was also implicated. They would never be able to recover from it."


    So there was actually such a thing. The Madame Song spoke sincerely: "You better not be fooled by that Zhang Family''s Miss, whether or not you love me, it''s all about telling me lies."


    "Tian''er is not interested in this kind of woman, and it''s just the words of a young man. What kind of love was that? I didn''t feel anything at all." Xi Jiu Er said.


    "It''s for the best that you can think so." Thinking back to how he had been like a demon, he still felt a lingering fear.


    Zhang Cui Lan covered her face and returned to the hut, then laid on the bed and cried in heartache. Old Lady Zhang knew what was going on and used her walking stick to scold: "Weeping, crying, can you solve the problem? It would be better to think about what to do to make him change her mind. "


    "Grandmother... You don''t know those humiliating words he said, Cui Lan doesn''t even want to live anymore ¡­ " Zhang Cui Lan covered her face and cried. At that moment, she really did not want to live anymore.


    "Hmph, you must live on, this Song Family''s young Madame must be you, it can only be you, if not, your Zhang Cui Lan''s reputation will be completely ruined, who would dare to marry you?"


    "Grandmother is right, Cui Lan has lost her mind." Zhang Cui Lan clenched her fists tightly. That''s right, Young Madame Song could only be him, and she had to be me as well.


    "This is nothing. Once you become Young Madame Song, everything that has happened will be worth it." Old Lady Zhang muttered to himself: "From now on, one of us must sing ''Red Face'', and one of us must sing ''Black Face''."


    Xi Jiu Er came out of Madame Song''s place and returned to the courtyard. In the end, she met Zhang Cui Lan again and it was as if she had changed into a completely different person.


    "Little Young Master, it was Cui Lan who was in the wrong just now. It was Cui Lan who did not control herself well. Zhang Cui Lan revealed her pale little face and sharp little chin, looking at Xi Jiu Er charmingly and charmingly.


    So she was being broadcasted by someone ¡­ Xi Jiu Er realised, this man was definitely Old Lady Zhang. Thinking about it, this grandfather-grandson pair wouldn''t let go until the marriage was decided.


    "I''m fine, I''m fine. Miss Zhang said that I forgot all about it." Xi Jiu Er faintly smiled as her shoulder brushed past Zhang Cui Lan. There was no trace of him lingering, so cold that Zhang Cui Lan was somewhat powerless.


    "Young Master Song, how about we just pretend nothing happened just now?" Zhang Cui Lan wholeheartedly wanted to salvage the situation, "We''re still friends, you''ll stay for three years once you leave.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, and looked at Cui Lan with a smile that was not a smile. Since the Zhang Family''s ancestor and grandson did not give up until then, there was still a way to get rid of this trouble! Suddenly, Xi Wan Feng''s face appeared in his mind, and a plan formed.


    "Of course." Xi Jiu Er''s elegant smile made Zhang Cui Lan''s heart beat crazily. The current Song Tian''s every move and gesture contained an endless flow of wind, how was she still like the previous Song Tian who was the playboy''s willfulness?


    Since he was smiling at me, then it means that my past hatred has been resolved? Zhang Cui Lan was overjoyed in her heart. That was really great. Previously, when she thought back to how she had been rude, she realized that there was no woman who had started to fall in love the moment she had met her. When the time was ripe, if she could not make the marriage right, she would come to cook the rice.


    Old Lady Zhang took out a bag of things to give Zhang Cui Lan, and warned him repeatedly: "This medicine is used by men and women to act, and has the effect of urging them to not use it unless they have no other choice."


    Zhang Cui Lan was secretly happy, with this pill, she was not afraid of Song Tian''s feelings, at that time, the Song Family would not be able to renege on the debt, if they had a child, they would be the eldest son of the Song Family ¡­ Zhang Cui Lan had already imagined everything.


    "Cui Lan, I''m old and still want to test you for your old age. There are some things that you have to remember." Old Lady Zhang said seriously: "If you handle this matter well, at that time you will become the one who has something to say. If you do not, you will never be able to raise your head in Song Mansion.


    Zhang Cui Lan was puzzled: "Grandmother''s meaning is ¡­ Do you want your granddaughter to gain the upper hand? "


    "Yes." You have to make the Song Clan feel that they''ve let you down, and not the Song Clan. Do you remember that? " Old Lady Zhang spoke sincerely, "The Song Family is in the wrong, they will not let you suffer any grievances."


    "Granddaughter understands what Grandmother means." Zhang Cui Lan nodded her head, it was indeed the truth. No matter where you put it, this raw rice was still a method of choice, and the key laid in the level of your methods.


    "We still have to get this pill from Song Tian''s servants." Old Lady Zhang squinted, her eyes full of calculation.


    Zhang Cui Lan nodded, and thought of a person in her heart ¡ª ¡ª cleaning the place for Song Tian using a servant! During this time, she had gotten familiar with her and knew that her family was poor and needed 5 taels of silver to save them. Everyone has their weakness, and as long as you grasp it, you will be of use to me.


    When Xi Jiu Er left the hospital, he accidentally saw the servant who was sweeping the floor being absent-minded, with a look of worry on her face.


    "Little Young Master, where are we going?" Ge La asked.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her: "There are some things that you shouldn''t ask. It''s best if you don''t know."


    Ge La pursed her lips, she did not understand how this woman could be so versatile and good at acting. In front of the Madame Song, she was an obedient child, and in front of Song Yun Shan, she was just a son fighting against others. In front of the servants, she was a master who was not smiling, but when she faced Zhang Cui Lan, she had become a gentle and refined young master. When interacting with him, Ge La felt that she was just a person who could get angry at any time, so she didn''t dare to say much. She asked this question out of curiosity, but she couldn''t hold it in ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er aimlessly walked along the street, as if she was observing something, until she finally walked to a fortune-telling stall and sat down. The vendor''s closing gaze wavered and she opened her eyes the moment she saw the entrance to the store. When she saw that it was a noble young master, she was overjoyed.


    "Little Gongzi''s future is still considered to be related by marriage." fortune-teller asked.


    "Do you know how to see a doctor?" Xi Jiu Er asked lazily. fortune-teller and Ge La who was behind were stunned.


    "I''m the fortune-teller, not the doctor." fortune-teller pursed his lips as he looked at Xi Jiu Er with a baffled expression.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at him from head to toe, giving him a transcendent air, it was precisely because of this immortal bone that Xi Jiu Er had set her eyes on him. She took out a hundred taels of silver from her pocket and said, "I have something that I need your help with."


    fortune-teller opened his eyes, snatched the banknotes and appraised them before opening his eyes with a smile: "Little Young Master, as long as it is not about murder and arson, I am willing to do it."


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "He''s a straightforward person."

 C244

    In this room, Zhang Cui Lan waited for Xi Jiu Er to come in and as soon as she came in, she walked over to the servant girl: "Gu Er, is Little Young Master here?"


    Gu Er hurriedly stood up and said respectfully, "Reporting to Miss Zhang, little Young Master has already left."


    "Is that so? "It seems like I''m not here at the right time." Zhang Cui Lan''s brows knitted, her eyes turned and asked softly: "What''s wrong, are you still troubled about the five silver?"


    Gu Er laughed bitterly: "Thank you for your concern Miss Zhang." He was no longer able to speak.


    Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard and that there was no one in the hut, Zhang Cui Lan took out the silver that she had prepared beforehand and handed it over to Gu Er. Gu Er was so shocked that she almost dropped the silver: "Zhang, Miss Zhang, you, this is ¡­"


    "You and I are fated to meet. To me, five taels of silver is but a drop in the bucket. To you, it is a silver that can save your life." If I give it to you, you can keep it. Zhang Cui Lan laughed, she saw that Gu Er''s eyes were bloodshot, and was extremely happy, she had taken the right first step.


    Putong, Gu Er kowtowed to Zhang Cui Lan, "I am unable to repay Miss Zhang''s great kindness, in the future, when Miss Zhang uses Gu Er, Gu Er will definitely take responsibility."


    "Look at what you''re saying. Get up, get up." Zhang Cui Lan immediately stepped forward to help Gu Er up, and she even enthusiastically wiped Gu Er''s tears.


    Gu Er was moved to tears, he held the 5 taels of silver tightly in his hands and swore that even if Zhang Cui Lan wanted his to, she would be willing to do it. She hadn''t been in the mansion for long, and because of her introverted personality, she rarely came into contact with other people. He didn''t even have a target to complain about, and now, not only did he have a lifesaver, she even had a friend.


    Today''s goal had already been achieved. It was said that haste makes waste, so this matter had to be done with caution.


    "Alright, I''m leaving." Zhang Cui Lan stared at Zhang Cui Lan''s back for a long time as the silver in her palm burned like fire.


    When Xi Jiu Er returned, she saw Gu Er wiping the table in the house. The previous worry was gone and was replaced with a brimming smile. This transformation was too fast ¡­


    "Little Young Master, Miss Zhang came to find you just now. He saw that you weren''t here, so he left." Gu Er said.


    "I understand. You can leave now." Xi Jiu Er revealed a smile. Once they left, they instructed Ge La: "Watch her when you''re free."


    "Yes." Ge La was suspicious, why were they staring at Gu Er?


    The next day, Xi Jiu Er went to Madame Song''s room to tell him a huge piece of good news. Madame Song suddenly stood up and said, "Found it? "How did you find it?"


    "Speaking of fate, that day when my son went to the medicine shop to get some medicine for mother to recuperate his body, he went out and bought medicine from an old man. However, to think that it would actually be the Qin Doctor that we are looking for, it is truly like stepping on broken iron shoes, finding it anywhere effortlessly. "


    stone mother said happily: "Madame has always been blessed, this is heaven''s pity."


    "That''s right." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "mother, in order to not attract attention, my daughter has already arranged for Qin Doctor to stay in the inn, and is waiting for mother."


    "Madame, let''s hurry up and go." stone mother said.


    "mother, let''s hurry up and leave. This Qin Doctor still has something he needs to attend to, Tian''er had to beg for a long time before she decided to stay for the night." Xi Jiu Er supported Madame Song and walked outside. Madame Song was a bit worried: "Maybe I met a swindler."


    "mother, don''t worry, he''s not a swindler." Xi Jiu Er confirmed. Madame Song believed in her son unconditionally, so she believed.


    In room number 1 of the Heavenly Stage, an old man sat there like a fairy. Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and said politely: "Qin Doctor, my mother is here."


    "The Madame is here." According to Xi Jiu Er''s instructions, not only did the Qin Doctor change his appearance, he was even wearing a long robe that carried the smell of medicinal herbs.


    He had been in the capital for at least a few months, and he had seen a lot of Madame Song on the streets, which was why he recognized them.


    Oh my god, it''s actually Madame Song! The fortune-teller was a little weak, so Xi Jiu Er pretended to cough and stared at him without leaving a trace, carrying a warning.


    "Qin Doctor, you are most adept at women, quickly show my mother."


    This youth is the son of the Madame Song? Then he is Young Master Song? This... What kind of play was this!? Thinking about his generous rewards, he coughed and pretended to check the Madame Song''s pulse.


    "Madame probably won''t be able to conceive again after eating the powerful Avoiding Soup previously." She stroked her beard with a grave expression on her face.


    stone mother hurriedly said: "Doctor, is there no other way? Neither the medical ingredients nor the medical fee are a problem. "


    Madame Song did not say a word, she only stared at Qin Doctor with hope, causing him to almost reveal her thoughts, she coughed and said, "About this ¡­ I do have a prescription to treat you, and as to whether or not it can cure Madame''s illness, it will all depend on your physique. "


    "This way, I can at least have a chance of survival." Xi Jiu Er said gratefully: "Then I''ll be troubling Qin Doctor."


    "Nothing." fortune-teller thought to himself that he already knew how to pretend. Today, he would be able to pretend even more when he met this Young Master Song.


    fortune-teller wrote down a prescription for Xi Jiu Er, and the ingredients written on the recipe also followed her instructions. In the end, he continued, "Madame using a medicinal herb is temporarily ineffective, and you don''t have to be discouraged. This old man knows a woman who ate for two years before she became pregnant, so it was also because of different people."


    "Thank you Doctor, thank you Doctor." stone mother hurriedly put away the prescription and gave Qin Doctor a note that was worth a hundred taels of silver. fortune-teller immediately closed his eyes and said: "This diagnosis is too much." [A hundred taels of silver ¡­] He really wanted it. He really wanted it.


    "Doctor, take it. This is what you deserve from the beginning. You solved mother''s problem, and made our family''s future generations prosper, this is a great contribution, a hundred gold coins is not too much. stone mother, add another fifty silver. " Xi Jiu Er passed a hundred and fifty liang of silver to fortune-teller, and spoke with hidden meaning: "Didn''t Qin Doctor say he is leaving in a day? I don''t know when or how long it will take before we can meet again, but we will remember today''s kindness in our hearts. "


    fortune-teller suppressed his joy and said: "Since that''s the case, I will accept it. If you have nothing else to do, you can go back. I need to rest."


    Madame Song stood up and laughed: "Many thanks Qin Doctor. Let''s go, do not disturb Qin Doctor''s rest."


    "Yes." The stone mother immediately supported the Madame Song as she walked out. Xi Jiu Er was at the very end, and before leaving, he gave the fortune-teller a warning look. The fortune-teller hurriedly nodded his head, indicating that he understood Xi Jiu Er''s intentions.

 C245

    As the night quietly approached, the area inside Xi Jiu Er''s room and outside of the courtyard was quiet. The sound of rustling grass and trees could be heard as a gentle breeze blew past. At this moment, a voice came from outside the residence, "The weather is dry, be careful of the candles ¡­" Song Mansion seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.


    A lady in a red dress walked over with a lantern in her hand. The weak candlelight seemed to be close to her like sparks, as she hurried towards Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard. The guards at the door were sleeping soundly tonight, snoring so hard that no one around her would be able to wake up.


    "Creak ¡ª ¡ª" The door released a heavy sound, Gu Er stuck her head out and anxiously said: "Miss Zhang, quickly come in." Zhang Cui Lan, who was standing outside the door, immediately extinguished the candle flame and entered the courtyard.


    "According to Miss Zhang''s instructions, Servant has already completed the task." Gu Er looked left and right, then whispered: "Miss Zhang, Servant has to go back, if not someone will find out in a while."


    "Go." Zhang Cui Lan also knew that she could only rely on herself for the following matter. A gust of cold wind blew, causing Zhang Cui Lan to shiver, and she was just about to take a step forward when she was suddenly startled by a burst of sound. The courtyard that was originally quiet suddenly lit up with several lanterns, and the people that were originally in deep sleep had already appeared. Xi Jiu Er slowly walked out with her hands behind her back, a smile on her face.


    Zhang Cui Lan could no longer maintain her composure and said awkwardly: "Little Young Master, it''s already this late and you''re not sleeping in your room?"


    "I actually want to ask Miss Zhang something. What are you doing if you''re not sleeping at night?" Zhang Cui Lan laughed dryly: "I, I''m just walking around casually." No matter what, Zhang Cui Lan was still the Miss of an innocent family. If it wasn''t for the fact that Jun Mo Xie did not want to marry him, he would not have defiled him like this. Upon hearing the mockery of her lowly servant, she was naturally ashamed and indignant, but she was also at a loss for words.


    "Ah ¡ª" Gu Er was brought to the center of the courtyard by a large group of people. Zhang Cui Lan stared at Gu Er with an even more uneasy feeling, and asked without doing anything: "Did this servant girl commit any crime?"


    "She threw the knockout drug Miss Zhang gave her into the Young Master''s censer and was caught red-handed." Ge La said. In her heart, she viewed Zhang Cui Lan''s methods with contempt, and looked down on him even more.


    "Little Young Master, this is really a misunderstanding. How could I let a servant girl do such a thing?" Zhang Cui Lan was becoming more and more familiar with the advantages of women. Women were born weak, and from ancient times onwards, they have attracted many men to bow before them. Zhang Cui Lan cried as if she was the most pitiful girl in the world.


    "Misunderstanding, I actually hope that this is a misunderstanding." Xi Jiu Er said with a dark face: "Do you think I, Song Tian, am a fool?"


    Zhang Cui Lan''s heart skipped a beat. This was the first time she saw the other party give him a look, and it was also her first time seeing her embarrassed and embarrassed look. Gritting her teeth, he choked back, "Although I have my heart set on you, I would never do something so dishonorable."


    "Haven''t you done enough dishonorable things?" Xi Jiu Er mocked.


    Zhang Cui Lan''s hatred towards Xi Jiu Er grew even stronger in her heart, she had placed all her hope into the Xi Family, if she was hated by the Song Family, she would have no choice but to become a nun in the future. Even the insult to the present is worth the luxury of a life in the future.


    "Little Young Master, I swear to the heavens, I really didn''t want to poison you." Zhang Cui Lan threw caution to the wind. If this matter were to be discovered, she would step into a bottomless abyss.


    "Really?" "Then why are you dressed like this in the middle of the night?" Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly, her expression already becoming slightly relaxed. She secretly rejoiced in her heart, and told a lie she had made up previously, she even pretended to have a helpless expression on her face. "Cui Lan is afraid that you guys will chase me away, so I just wants to know if I get sick ¡­ you can stay for a while longer... I''m sorry, I shouldn''t have done that, but I really want to stay here. "


    "Then why are you in my courtyard?"


    Zhang Cui Lan bit her lips, her face red from embarrassment. "I think if I faint in your courtyard, would you care about me ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er laughed in her heart, then instructed Ge La: "Send the Miss Zhang back. I will pretend that nothing happened today.


    Everyone present, including Zhang Cui Lan, were stunned by the murderous look in their eyes. Not only were they thinking, even if they were gentle and refined, they were still Song Yun Shan''s bloodline.


    This matter could be considered as over. Zhang Cui Lan still had some lingering fear after returning to the house, but she felt extremely regretful in her heart: She actually failed. If she missed this opportunity, the next time she wanted to use her old technique would be even more difficult. The handkerchief in her hand had already been twisted into a fried dough twist.


    He could not sleep well in the Old Lady Zhang tonight, so he hoped that his granddaughter would succeed tonight. Even if she had to suffer some humiliation, it would be worth it. The moon outside the window was bright and clear, it was so quiet that one could hear the sound of candles exploding. Old Lady Zhang was about to fall asleep, when the door opened.


    He opened his eyes slightly and looked at his elder, then asked, "What''s wrong? But it''s not going well? "


    The old granny''s face froze, she had followed Old Lady Zhang for so many years but still did not say anything, let alone such a huge matter, and quickly replied: "Old Madame, it''s not that you''re unhappy, it''s simply too much. As soon as Miss walked into the courtyard, she was discovered by someone. All the servants in the Little Young Master Courtyard saw how Miss did not have any clothes on, and not only that, the matter of the medicine being administered by the Miss was also discovered by the little Young Master.


    Old Lady Zhang''s face was so red that blood could drip out. People could not tell that she was Young Master Song, but was she a smart person? Or was it that Cui Lan was already so stupid that people could not discern anything?


    "Where is she? Tell her to get the hell in here." When Old Lady Zhang thought about how this matter would spread around the palace tomorrow, but it did not have the same effect as she had imagined, her expression immediately turned ugly and she became extremely angry.


    With that said, Zhang Cui Lan walked in with tears on her face. Her appearance was really pitiful. Old Lady Zhang was furious and scolded in a low voice: "Stupid thing, you failed at doing more than what you intended. What do you think you have done with this matter? Tomorrow morning, the entire clan will want to know about this matter. Where will you put my face? " As she spoke, she slapped his face.


    Zhang Cui Lan choked with sobs: "Grandmother, at this point, I would like to ask Grandmother to give me a few pointers."


    They were both grasshoppers on the same rope, how could Zhang Cui Lan get any benefits if she wasn''t good? Old Lady Zhang''s eyes overflowed with loathing as she said impatiently: "Tomorrow morning, I will go to Madame Song to apologize to him, and let you stay in the manor as you please. How you do it from now on will depend on your luck."


    Zhang Cui Lan did not understand, and completely angered Old Lady Zhang, as if she did not know what was going on. She said resentfully: "Just listen to my arrangements tomorrow, don''t talk too much, just tell Madame Song what you have done, and when it''s time to cry, don''t be careless when apologizing."


    "Grandmother ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan still had something she wanted to ask.

 C246

    "Did you hear that clearly?" The Old Lady Zhang scolded.


    "Yes ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan obediently complied, and then let the Old Lady Zhang leave as if she was stealing something. As she stepped out of the door, he vaguely heard a ''stupid thing'' shouting. The corner of her mouth curled into a sneer. Humph! This old fart, how could she have ended up like this if she hadn''t listened to you? If she screwed up tomorrow, she would go back with this old thing and kill her.


    It was early in the morning, and when Madame Song just woke up, someone outside reported that Old Lady Zhang was here. Madame Song was not happy with this old man who relied on her seniority. Sometimes, she had no choice but to go and socialize with him due to her identity.


    "I don''t know why you''re not coming this early in the morning, but don''t mind it." stone mother rolled her eyes as she replied.


    "Her purpose for coming was related to Zhang Cui Lan. Tian''er does not like her, so I could not force her. What else can this be other than adding fuel to the fire? " Madame Song looked around at his reflection in the mirror and discovered that his skin had become even whiter and more exquisite. His face was also a lot redder, and he thought to himself, When Tian''er comes back, I look even better.


    Once the bead curtain was drawn, Madame Song came out and sat down. Before she could even open her mouth to speak, he heard a ''plop'' sound. There was a person kneeling in front of him, and upon closer inspection, it was Zhang Cui Lan! She was shocked: "Miss Zhang, what are you doing?"


    Old Lady Zhang just stood up from her chair, bowed towards Madame Song, and pointed at Zhang Cui Lan in anger: "Madame Song, these years I have already grown old, and in just a few years I have taught this damned girl how to write the word shameless. I am here to ask for your forgiveness, Madame Song ¡­ "


    Madame Song said confused: "What''s wrong, what''s good? What is good?"


    Old Lady Zhang and Zhang Cui Lan were entangled, thinking, could it be that she didn''t know? Even if you don''t know now, you will know later. "Elder Zhang mumbled," This matter... This old woman is too shy to talk about it. "


    The Old Lady Zhang was puzzled, why? Could it be ¡­ She gave a look to stone mother, who ordered a servant girl to leave. For a moment, the room was extremely quiet, with only the sound of Zhang Cui Lan sobbing. Not long later, the servant returned, and looked at Zhang Cui Lan with contempt. She stayed beside Madame Song''s ear for a while, and Madame Song''s face suddenly turned pale white, then turned green.


    Song Tian was her treasure, and now that someone was using such a dirty method on him, how could she not be angry?


    "Madame, no, Cui Lan didn''t, Cui Lan was wrongly accused ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan cried, she was not sad at all as she raised her head to reveal her delicate and touching face.


    "Madame Song, this old woman has no harm in teaching you. Let this girl see little Young Master in the middle of the night." Old Lady Zhang didn''t say that it was Zhang Cui Lan who had drugged her with the pill, but said that she had gone to see Song Tian in the middle of the night. Admit overstepping but refuse to admit drugging.


    Madame Song did not say anything. Zhang Cui Lan''s crying made her upset, she wanted to shake her off so she would not cry but she felt that it was disrespectful. Furthermore, it was very clear that Tian''er did not want others to know about this because she did not want others to know about it even as a mother.


    "Madame Song, Cui Lan was wrongly accused, Cui Lan did not use any medicine, please believe Cui Lan." Zhang Cui Ling was crying her heart out. It sounded as if she was going to lose her life if she didn''t believe her.


    "Alright, let''s end this here. No one is allowed to spread the news." Madame Song said with an ashen face: "It doesn''t matter if you did this or not, I won''t pursue this matter any further. In the future, just pretend that this never happened."


    "Madame Song... It is all because of this old lady''s lack of discipline. This old lady will leave her place today, and as for this unfilial daughter, I will have to ask Madame Song to take care of her for a few months! " Old Lady Zhang bowed deeply. She did not know how to respond to the words that stuck in her throat, but in the end, she sighed, "Alright, I''ll agree to Old Madame''s request."


    Returning to the house, once the door closed, Old Lady Zhang gave Zhang Cui Lan a backhanded slap: "Bitch, you humiliated me to this extent today. If you''re unable to accomplish anything this time, don''t come back."


    Thinking about how ugly he had bowed, Zhang Cui Lan felt like cutting Zhang Cui Lan into pieces. She had never suffered such humiliation in her life before, and yet she was still like this when she was old ¡­ He hated Zhang Cui Lan more and more.


    Zhang Cui Lan hurriedly said: "Cui Lan will definitely complete Old Madame''s mission this time."


    "Hmph, pack up. Let''s go." As for what Zhang Cui Lan was going to do next, it all depended on her luck. She had already done what she could. It was up to her.


    After the Old Madame packed her stuff and ate breakfast, they left. Song Yun Shan had never asked about matters of the backyard, but recently, the Zhang Family people had given him a headache. After hearing that the Old Lady Zhang had left, he finally revealed a smile.


    "Master Song, Madame Song ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan bowed respectfully as her beautiful face displayed a look of helplessness and blankness. Xi Jiu Er looked at her carefully.


    He wore a simple hairstyle and wore a pearl flower and a jade hairpin. She was wearing a simple dress with plum blossoms interspersed on it. A light red belt was tied around her waist and a piece of jade was tied around her waist. It made her look a lot thinner.


    "You child ¡­" Although he didn''t like Zhang Cui Lan, he was still moved by Zhang Cui Lan''s kindness. A woman who liked men without any complaints, without even caring about her status, had just came to Song Mansion. Logically speaking, Madame Song felt that this kind of woman did not care about face, and could only stare helplessly as she pasted her eyes on him. However, for his son to have such a woman who truly cared for him was a blessing in disguise.


    Seeing Madame Song''s expression, Xi Jiu Er knew that she was moved by him. Today, she wanted to see what sort of trick Zhang Cui Lan was playing, so she just sat quietly at the side and did not say anything.


    Song Yun Shan stared at Zhang Cui Lan. This girl was too wild. After all these scenes, she wanted to marry into the Song Family. If she didn''t see through love at all, then it could only be said that she wanted to marry into the Song Family? Why did she have to marry into the Song Family? Song Yun Shan''s pupils constricted as she stared at Zhang Cui Lan with suspicion.


    "mother, right now, there is already a family that cannot return to Miss Zhang. This matter is a result of the marriage. If mother finds a match to give to Cui Lan, Old Lady Zhang will definitely be happy, at that time, he will bring Miss Zhang back! " Xi Jiu Er took a sip of tea and laughed.


    Song Yun Shan looked at Xi Jiu Er, and sometimes he really wanted to see what kind of face he had under his son''s face. Her temperament was clear and cold, and she was also a peerless beauty.


    Madame Song smiled and said: "Mn, I''ll return the favor since Tian''er has thought it through. Cui Lan, you and Tian''er are not fated to be together. Since you are old enough to be here, I will find you a decent family, so don''t worry. "

 C247

    A good family? She had lived like a prince for more than ten years and wanted to live like a human being. She did not want to live like a human and eat less. Zhang Cui Lan cried: "Madame, since little Young Master does not like Cui Lan, Cui Lan will not force him. But Cui Lan already has a crush on little Young Master, and can''t accept anyone else. "


    "Madame Song, Master Song, let me be a servant in your house and serve you for the rest of my life ¡­" After he finished speaking, he even looked at Xi Jiu Er lovingly. He was really not used to a woman looking at him lovingly. However, he was sitting there calmly.


    "What nonsense are you spouting, you are the Zhang Family''s Miss, how can you come to our Song Family to be a servant girl?" Madame Song''s face sunk as she scolded: How would outsiders view our Song Family?


    "Cui Lan was willing to do it ¡­ Right now, Cui Lan has already been chased out of the Grandmother, so how can she still be considered a Miss Zhang. " Zhang Cui Lan said while wiping her tears.


    Xi Jiu Er sneered in his heart, blood ties were the most magical thing in the world, and it also had the ability to restrain others. At this point, blood was thicker than water, and the broken bones were still connected to tendons. If she did not recognize him now, perhaps Zhang Cui Lan would become the Young Madame of the Song Mansion. If Zhang Cui Lan did not admit, then it would be enough for him to suffer the crime of being unfilial.


    "This child is speaking nonsense. Other than this nun not getting married, how can a girl not get married? Don''t worry, I will definitely find you a good home, and my status won''t be too low. will handle your marriage. " The Madame Song laughed.


    Zhang Cui Lan shook her head, and did not say a word. Everyone in the city knew how Song Tian felt about him, and if she did not marry into the Song Mansion now, which family would want him? I''m afraid I''m mistaken to think that my reputation is bad and my behavior is not good. As she thought about this, she started to hate Song Tian. If it wasn''t for her, why would he have said those words to him back then? If it wasn''t for her, why did she have to wait so long for him? Her previous love and admiration for Song Tian had already turned into hatred!


    He couldn''t help but feel a wave of hatred in his heart.


    Song Yun Shan''s brows furrowed slightly as he said unhappily, "We also know that Tian''er had treated you unfairly in this matter, but we both said that we would depend on each other''s wishes. "Tian''er doesn''t like you, so what''s the point in doing this?"


    Zhang Cui Lan was so embarrassed that hesheface turned red, she bit her lips and said pitifully: "It''s said that Master and Madame have a deep affection for each other, Cui Lan also wants to find such a person, what is wrong with Cui Lan doing this? Don''t tell me Cui Lan can''t have someone she likes? " As she spoke, he began to cry.


    "You silly child, Tian''er doesn''t like you. If this marriage succeeds, it will be a bad fate." The Madame Song sighed, a whole new level of respect for Zhang Cui Lan''s perseverance.


    "They all say that it''s an order from the parents for the matchmaker to enter the marriage ceremony. Some people have never even seen one before. Our relationship can be slowly developed. " Zhang Cui Lan said anxiously: "If little Young Master does not like Cui Lan, Cui Lan has nothing else to say, letting Cui Lan become his servant is also good for him."


    With that, he started to kowtow, and with a loud thud, he shocked the entire Madame Song, who immediately supported Zhang Cui Lan up: "Quickly get up, your head is already cracked, if you have anything to say, just say it, why are you kowtowing?"


    Zhang Cui Lan''s tears rolled in sher tear-filled eyes. If Xi Jiu Er didn''t understand her personality, he would really be moved by her infatuated expression.


    "Madame Song, I beg you, for the sake of my infatuation, let little Young Master accept me as his concubine." She didn''t believe that if she had the ability, she would still climb up to be his principal wife. If he gave birth to a son, he would become the eldest son of the Song Family ¡­ Zhang Cui Lan had already planned for this, and she would not let this go.


    "Why would a good girl like you want to be a concubine?" Madame Song''s face sank. It was unknown why her good impression of Zhang Cui Lan disappeared like smoke into thin air. What she hated most in her life were the concubines and the concubines, the many women in the backyard. How many of these heirs died in the backyard? She just wanted to pick out a girl of good character and love for her son. It didn''t matter if his family background was important, the key was that her son liked it. For the sake of the Song Family''s future heir and peace of the peace in the law and order, she did not intend to let her son share a room with her.


    If his daughter-in-law was that kind of virtuous, virtuous, and virtuous girl, it wouldn''t be too late for her to take in a concubine even if her body wasn''t in a good condition.


    Zhang Cui Lan clearly felt that the Madame Song seemed to be a lot colder towards her. Could it be that once she heard that she was about to become the concubinage, she would be looked down upon by the Madame Song? Zhang Cui Lan pursed his lips, her heart feeling unsettled, as though she was biting his lips and not saying a word. Madame Song sighed.


    "Alright, alright, we''ll leave this matter to Tian''er. They young people have different thoughts from us, we''ll just follow their wishes." Song Yun Shan stood up and said to the Madame Song: "Alright, I have something to talk to you about. Come with me."


    Madame Song looked at Xi Jiu Er, but from the beginning to the end, Xi Jiu Er only said the words, and did not say anything else. Her expression was as calm as water. Even she was slightly moved, yet this son of hers was completely indifferent!


    "Alas ¡ª Tian''er, you decide on this matter." Madame Song followed Song Yun Shan and left.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Zhang Cui Lan. Zhang Cui Lan was intelligent, and did not rush to achieve anything. But to fight with a demon like Xi Wan Feng was still too inexperienced.


    Zhang Cui Lan realized that Xi Jiu Er was staring at him thinking about something. She even thought that what she had done had moved Xi Jiu Er''s heart. But after thinking about it, if she was moved, then why didn''t Xi Jiu Er say anything else other than that sentence?


    Zhang Cui Lan followed Xi Jiu Er to the temple. Although the little Young Master did not like him, she did not hate or despise him much.


    There were not many visitors in the temple today, their main goal was to get a safe ticket back to Madame Song. Zhang Cui Lan also knew that Madame Song''s health was not good recently, and was thinking of a way to make her like him. After that incident, Madame Song''s attitude towards him had clearly been greatly reduced.


    The drawing of lots was a draw, so both of them were very happy. The Great Master of the Lucky Draw stroked his beard and smiled to Zhang Cui Lan: "Is this the person that Young Master likes?" His benevolent face and wide smile made Zhang Cui Lan''s face flush red. She did not know what to do and looked at the elegant youth beside her.


    "No, it''s my cousin." Xi Jiu Er replied as his heart sank to the bottom. Her petite, snow-white face was on the verge of collapse as she bit her lips and forced a smile at the old man.


    "Hur hur, so that''s how it is. From the looks of it, this girl will definitely be a rich person in the future. The old man stroked his beard as he spoke.


    When Zhang Cui Lan heard that she had the fortune to be able to overthrow the Heavens, she immediately thought of the Empress, and anxiously asked: "What is it?"

 C248

    "You can''t say it, you can''t say it." The old man smiled and waved them off. "Come on, come on, don''t linger around in front of me." Zhang Cui Lan said. "This old man''s cultivation is very high, since he said it like that, then it''s pretty close."


    Zhang Cui Lan''s breathing quickened, and although the youth in front of him was handsome and extraordinary, she no longer felt anything towards him. Marrying him would allow her to live a good life without worrying about food and clothing, but she yearned for a better life, a better wealth.


    It was obvious that the admiration in the young girl''s eyes had completely disappeared, and her greed had completely disappeared. Xi Jiu Er laughed in her heart, she wanted this kind of effect, and pretended to speak: "A while ago I heard that father said he would find the Prime Minister''s son as a guest, could it be that the wealth he is talking about is this?"


    The young master of the Wind Nation''s prime minister, Zhang Cui Lan, knew a bit, but couldn''t learn anything about it. She had two sons, the eldest son was a graceful and learned man, and the second son inherited his father''s lust. She was a wanderer, and her evaluation of him was far inferior to that of the eldest son.


    Zhang Cui Lan''s status was very low, so she could barely qualify to be a little Madame. She bit her lips and looked at Xi Jiu Er, not daring to reveal anything, after all, she had said that she liked him, and then thought of going with the Prime Minister, afraid that he would dislike her even more. He decided to hold back, lest he lose to the Madame and lose to them.


    How could Xi Jiu Er not see her confusion? Apologizing, she said: "Miss Zhang, I messed up you, and since you are rich, it is probably because the heavens have unwittingly arranged for us to meet. I will help you, count it as my compensation."


    Zhang Cui Lan was ecstatic, she bit her lips and looked at Xi Jiu Er, if she was a man, she would have already been moved, it was a pity that Xi Jiu Er was a woman. She softly revealed a rare gentleness as she said, "You''ve found a good home and I''m happy."


    Zhang Cui Lan said with tears of gratitude, "Thank you little Young Master, I will definitely remember your kindness in my heart."


    "I''ve always treated you as my little sister. From now on, we''re family." Xi Jiu Er revealed the smile of a big brother, while Zhang Cui Lan bashfully smiled.


    It was done.


    After returning to his residence, Xi Jiu Er was immediately mentioned by the Madame Song. A person that Xi Jiu Er absolutely did not want to meet: Prince Xian, Mu Qiu Shui.


    "This Prince Xian was originally a Windy King. I don''t know how he became like that and wanted to go to war. I don''t know what he is thinking." Madame Song sighed, "Just like you were back then."


    Xi Jiu Er forced a smile, and a strange feeling surfaced in her heart. Prince Xian had saved him many times without sparing her life, how did he get to fight this time? Seeing that her son''s expression was not good, the Madame Song secretly thought that she was confused, and quickly changed the topic: "What are you thinking, what are you doing with the Miss Zhang today?"


    "mother, why not take her as your adopted daughter?" Xi Jiu Er did not want to continue guessing at Prince Xian''s intentions, so she smiled and said so.


    Madame Song was startled, her expression lightened: "I''m afraid she doesn''t want to."


    "mother will definitely be willing to bring this up." If she became the adopted daughter of General Song, her status would be much higher and she would have face in the future. Plus, the Song Family was equivalent to her family and had a backing, so she would never agree unless she was an idiot.


    The Madame Song did not understand, and nodded without thinking too much, "That would be for the best." But she was still unwilling in her heart, she did not want this kind of daughter, because since she had become Zhang Cui Lan''s adopted daughter, then Zhang Cui Lan''s actions and words in the future would have a huge relationship with the Song Family.


    Xi Jiu Er returned to the courtyard, and saw that her expression did not look good, so she waited on her without saying a word. stone mother brought over the food box according to Madame Song''s orders, and also told Xi Jiu Er to follow her out to take a walk tomorrow. Xi Jiu Er nodded, "I will have to trouble stone mother to tell him that I will be going with him tomorrow morning."


    stone mother left with a smile. In any case, she didn''t have any excuse to refuse.


    Green Treading? The weather gradually turned cold. What could he step out of? The next day, Xi Jiu Er followed Madame Song out. Madame Song was extremely happy today, and he asked Xi Jiu Er if he agreed. Xi Jiu Er smiled lightly: "Perhaps she has seen the truth."


    "That''s right, she''s not young anymore. We can''t be so restrained." Madame Song laughed.


    A cold wind blew outside, the carriage was especially warm, and after the carriage had walked for around an hour, it stopped. Xi Jiu Er got off the carriage and was dumbfounded, she stared at the signboard in shock: Fourth Marquis''s Mansion?


    She immediately lost all her vigor and asked dryly: "mother, what are you doing here?"


    Madame Song asked back with a smile: "You, this child, truly are a friend of mine, the Fourth Concubine''s mother. Today, she came to visit the Fourth Concubine, and invited me to come with her." After pausing for a moment, she saw that Xi Jiu Er did not seem to have recovered from her shock and asked curiously: "Tian''er, what''s wrong?"


    So there was such a relationship? Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt depressed, and took a step back and said: "mother, I, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, I, I will be going now."


    "Tian, what happened to you?" Madame Song looked at Xi Jiu Er who had a strange expression on her face. She didn''t know how Xi Jiu Er, who was fine just a moment ago, could change her mind like this?


    Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Looking at the plaque above her head, Xiao Feng and Yan Er''s faces kept on spinning in her mind.


    "Tian ¡­"


    "It''s fine, mother. I have a bit of a chance to leave first." Xi Jiu Er regained her composure: "I just remembered that this was something father had arranged for me. She said that it was an urgent matter and that I must take care of it as soon as possible."


    Madame Song also knew that his own husband had a lot of things to do in the past few days. When she heard that the situation in the imperial court had changed, and that his son had not done anything of the sort, she was sure to have forgotten.


    "Yes."


    "Tian''er is gone, mother, be careful." Xi Jiu Er saluted and left in a hurry. Xi Jiu Er was not familiar with this unfamiliar environment, it did not seem bustling here, and there were very few people here. Somehow, before she could even cry out in alarm, her feet slipped and she fell into a huge pit the height of a person.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her head to look at the sky. What should she do now? There were not many people here, so she had to think of a way to climb out ¡­


    "Ugh!" A man''s voice came from the corner, causing Xi Jiu Er''s hairs to immediately stand on end. His first thought was that there was actually someone here? What made her even more horrified was that her voice sounded just like a person''s voice ¡­ She slowly turned her head and saw a Chinese-robed man sitting in a corner of the crater. The man''s face was as beautiful as an immortal''s.


    Xi Jiu Er could not stay calm at first glance, who else could it be other than Feng Qing Cheng? The Xiao Feng who deceived her! He was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed and his cheeks flushed as if he were drunk. Xi Jiu Er did not want to get entangled with him too much, at least not now.


    Xi Jiu Er had to crawl out before Yue Yang even opened his eyes. He looked like a frog on the wall when he tried to climb up the cliff.


    Crawl...


    Slide...


    Climb Again...


    Slip again...


    Continue Crawling...

 C249

    Continue Sliding...


    Xi Jiu Er was somewhat righteous, after spending so much effort to stay here, she was truly angered to death. Just as she was about to find another way out, she heard a hoarse voice asking, "Are you a frog?"


    "You''re the frog." Xi Jiu Er replied, and was stunned to find that Feng Qing Cheng had narrowed his eyes and looked at her with a smile that was not a smile.


    "Hmph, now you actually think of me." After he ridiculed, Xi Jiu Er secretly thought that the previous Xiao Feng''s acting was extremely good, how could he have known that he was being so sarcastic? When he thought of this, the anger in his heart flared up again, and he quickly said, "Fourth Prince has misunderstood this humble one. This humble one wants to go out and call for helpers."


    "Come here." Feng Qing Cheng''s voice revealed a trace of oddness, it was so hoarse that it was like a feather, making one''s heart itch. Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought of his plum blossom body, and tolerated it as she walked forward: "Your Highness, what orders do you have?"


    "I... "Cough, cough, cough ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng coughed and stood still as if he did not hear anything. A voice came from above. It seemed that quite a number of people had come.


    "Where is he? Where did you go? " It was a woman''s voice, and the sound was quite delicate. Xi Jiu Er could hear it with her breath, then she heard a man''s doubtful voice, "Miss, this servant, this servant does not know where went ¡­ "He was drugged and probably won''t be far ¡­"


    "Bastard, what''s the use of you doing something like this if you can''t even do it?" The woman scolded, "Hurry up and look around, you bunch of trash."


    Chinese medicine? Xi Jiu Er took a glance and realized that Feng Qing Cheng had been infected by an aphrodisiac! She waved her to a place where she could hide. Jiu Er cursed in his heart. Why did she have to come at this time? Do you want to die and walk this path? Xi Jiu Er was regretful in his heart. She found a corner to hide far, far away from Yue Yang.


    She was lucky that no one was around. The girl was so angry that her neck turned red. When Xi Jiu Er heard her mention the Prime Minister, she wondered who she was. Suddenly, she felt a heat come from behind her and was so shocked that she almost cried out.


    "Let go."


    The person behind him raised his eyebrows as if he didn''t hear anything, and said loudly, "So fragrant."


    "I told you to let go." With her waist wrapped up, in order to not let the people above hear her, she started shouting like a mosquito. When she turned around to look, she realized that it was not good, Feng Qing Cheng seemed to have gotten hit by some extremely powerful medicine, and his senses were in a mess.


    Xi Jiu Er fumbled out the small porcelain bottle and immediately moved its mouth to feed it to him. The person behind him still hugged her and rubbed her body against him, especially when her lips seemed to brush against the back of her neck, causing him to feel a numbing sensation, causing him to blush.


    "You, you ¡­" Xi Jiu Er heard the sound of their voices and knew that they were about to return home. The eyes of the person behind him widened as the corners of her mouth grew larger.


    This was the taste!


    After they left, Xi Jiu Er immediately escaped and jumped away from Feng Qing Cheng. She glared fiercely at him, and discovered that Feng Qing Cheng who was leaning weakly on the ground seemed to have fallen asleep.


    Crawl...


    Slide...


    Climb Again...


    Slip again...


    Continue Crawling...


    Continue Sliding...


    Xi Jiu Er was not discouraged, she finally crawled out of the pit, clapping her hands, she looked inside the hole, but could not see it clearly. Feng Qing Cheng''s life or death had nothing to do with her, it was better to leave quickly. With that, she quickly left. Not long after she left, Feng Qing Cheng jumped out of the pit and watched Xi Jiu Er''s back that was gradually shrinking into a black dot. He was extremely excited.


    "Jiu Er, you are still alive." He could only remember a woman''s aura after she had been swallowed into his bone marrow. There was no mistake. This crafty woman faked her own death to trick him, causing him to be obsessed with her, yet she unknowingly became Song Yun Shan''s'' son ''. What happened in this period of time?


    Ships were being built along the Heavenly Canal. In the short span of three months, ninety-eight ships had been built, ninety battleships, and eight forward battleships. The ships were still being built. This time, all the boats were being built by the Wei Guogong herself, he was known for being strict, scolding the Prince Xian like he was a turtle. There were also a few other deputy generals like him, who were scolded every day by him.


    "Fighting with someone like that is like playing house with them. Do you even want to die? Hurry up and continue training."


    "Look at this boat, this nail isn''t even tight. What do we do if we get water in, you want us to drink water there? Isn''t it? "Trash, trash!"


    "Prince Xian, come over here. Look at the map you drew for me. "If you don''t understand anything at all, draw another one for me."


    For the past three months, the roars from the Wei Guogong had never stopped, until one day, they suddenly changed their attitude and were happily cheering the whole day, looking extremely friendly and amiable. No one knew about this change, but it made Prince Xian suspicious. When the Wei Guogong heard that his granddaughter had died miserably, she refused to participate in the war and returned to Tian Tian to recuperate. If it wasn''t for the emperor giving her face and begging her, she would have to plead with her people with her life.


    The Wei Guogong was becoming thinner and thinner, her temperament becoming more and more ruthless, making it impossible for people to get close to him. Something good must have happened to make him smile, but what was it?


    Today was also the day to let everyone put down everything in their hands, relax, and set up a banquet at night. When Wei Guogong went to find Prince Xian, he coincidentally saw a girl around fifteen to sixteen years old walked out of his room. Her facial features looked like seventy percent of his granddaughter''s, but the difference in her demeanor was completely different.


    Even a fool would be able to tell that he was fond of Xi Jiu Er. After his death, the other party dispiritedly replaced Shi Chen Wen and followed him all the way to Tong Tian. All the civil and military officials agreed with his actions. Battling was not just a matter of courtship; it was a matter of life and death for the country. It was not child''s play.


    Then, when the Wei Guogong made her decision, so did Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, and the entire imperial court was left with nothing to say. According to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s words, "If you can do it, then go." As weak and weak scholars, it was impossible for them to lead soldiers into war. It was best to spare them.


    It was said that she was the daughter of a small family, and her name was Ran Er. The Prince Xian did not reject the gift from the person beside her. Wei Guogong pursed her lips, thinking that this brat''s acting was really good, to the point that he could not catch even the slightest inkling of what was going on.


    Ran Er''s eyes turned red as she wiped away her tears, bowed to Wei Guogong and left. Wei Guogong walked in and touched her nose: "Prince Xian?"


    Prince Xian was drawing a map on the table, he did not even raise his head as he asked: "Is there anything wrong with Wei Guogong?"


    In fact, the distribution of Prince Xian was very good, there were no problems, the annotations were also very detailed. But no matter who the Wei Guogong caught to provoke, and because he felt that it was too flashy, she rejected it multiple times. On the other hand, Prince Xian scolded back and forth, his expression was indifferent, causing Wei Guogong to see him in a better light.

    "Even the soldiers were tired after a few months, and the shipbuilders were busy as well. They just wanted to rest for today, and tonight, I will host a banquet to invite everyone!" The former number one beauty was now wearing a military uniform. Although it was difficult to cover her peerless beauty, her temperament was completely different.


    Prince Xian slowly raised his head to look at Wei Guogong''s expression. His brows slightly furrowed, "Wei Guogong''s mood seems to be very good, but if you encounter any happy things, why don''t you tell us what kind of happy things you have happened?"


    "What other happy things can happen to you? "You don''t know that these people have cursed me all over in secret. There are people who curse at me and all sorts of things. They can''t just keep doing this, right?" Wei Guogong smiled faintly. He could not help but start talking about his granddaughter with a sorrowful expression, "Every time I think about my granddaughter in the sea of fire, I feel extremely remorseful. As her grandfather, however ¡­" With that, he sighed heavily and walked out.


    What was Prince Xian planning to ask? Oh wow, he''s already gone, what the hell is he asking. But the more abnormal Wei Guogong was, the more trouble she would encounter! Although he heard''s expression was extremely sorrowful when talking about it, but the despair and guilt was gone from her eyes, what did this mean?


    Prince Xian did not dare to think further. He had seen the corpse before, and it was as tall as Xi Jiu Er. In the past few days, she was handcuffed by iron chains and no one helped her. Could it be that she had already prepared a girl with a similar height as herself? If he had really expected that Liu Xiang would not have died.


    The Prince Xian looked at himself attentively, perhaps there was no Xi Jiu Er left either. Otherwise, she wouldn''t be able to explain why the Wei Guogong was acting so abnormal.


    Ran Er hid in a corner with red eyes and cried silently, feeling lost for her future. She had spent a lot of effort to learn that Princess Laifu, but she still did what she was told and won her love ¡­ She had advantages that others didn''t have, but the heavens didn''t pity her.


    ''Ding Dong '', a stone rolled by his feet, next to him was a crumpled piece of paper, opening it to see a line of words written crookedly, Ran Er after reading it, he quickly threw it into the river, his eyes flashing, struggling in his heart.


    At night, the Tongtian Canal area was abnormally lively. Everyone would dance and sing throughout the night. They forgot their fatigue, forgot their worries, and forgot that they were about to face a station. It was a narrow escape. At this moment, he only wanted to get drunk and not know when it would be.


    Prince Xian was drinking wine in his room, falling asleep immediately. When he woke up, it was already the third fragment of the night, and the cold wind was blowing. Tell the servants to prepare a hot bath... In order to cope with Prince Xian''s preferences, he currently lived in a house with a bathing pool. The five servants ran back and forth more than twenty times before they were able to fill in more or less.


    Prince Xian dismissed everyone from their seats, and did not let anyone take off their robes and walk towards the hot soup to take a bath. Surrounded by the heat, Prince Xian laid on the marble floor like a child who did not have any love, and was on the verge of tears. The alcohol had yet to subside, and he could only feel that his body was currently very hot. Crash! * * Crash! * * Crash! * * Crash! * The mist opened its eyes. There seems to be someone in front?


    This person''s silhouette seemed to be that of a woman?


    Prince Xian squinted, and muttered: "Jiu Er ¡­ Is it Jiu Er? " His excited voice was so careful that he didn''t dare to disturb the person in front of her. It''s Jiu Er, seems like it''s really her? Could it be that he was dreaming? May this dream be true, and hope that you will never wake up from your drunkenness.


    "Prince ¡­" Ran Er stood not far from Prince Xian. Wearing a light veil, her body was drenched with water, revealing her curvaceous body. Within the mist, she was like a bud that was ready to bloom, making people drool.


    This voice was truly soft and charming, to the point that the bones of the other men would probably turn soft upon hearing it, but Prince Xian was extremely clear-headed and clear-headed. Since when did Xi Jiu Er look at him with such tender and affectionate eyes, and softly call him "Prince"?


    After waking up from his stupor, he stared at Ran Er and revealed a mocking smile. Even though he looked similar to Jiu Er, he still acted like a tiger, which was extremely fake. Prince Xian was immediately disgusted but his expression could not be read. In the mist, his peerless beauty was also peerlessly beautiful.


    "Prince ¡­" Ran Er only felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She was so nervous that it felt like she was about to suffocate. She knew that her appearance wasn''t outstanding, but her body was unable to control the man who was bathing in fire. She had the confidence.


    To Prince Xian, Ran Er''s approach was like a poisonous snake swimming in water, extremely disgusting. She heaved a sigh of relief, why did this damned woman have to do such a shameless thing to Jiu Er? If Jiu Er would never do such a thing, even if she were to just kill her, she would not be moved at all.


    Thinking about Xi Jiu Er''s heartless and cold attitude towards him, Prince Xian''s heart instantly shivered. Even though the surroundings were warm, it still could not make him feel warm. She touched the robe on the side, then turned and donned the robe and coldly stood at the side staring at Ran Er.


    Being stared at by him made Ran Er feel extremely awkward. She wore a smile that she thought was just right, and yet didn''t lose out in the slightest. She silently cursed in her heart that she should have snuck into his side earlier. Since that was the case, since she had already gone up, what was the point of her being in the water? But what would she face if she went up? He had to find out what he was thinking.


    It was said that the Prince Xian was fickle, and he also had the face of the man he loved. Right now, he should not be so indifferent to it, unless he wasn''t a man!


    "Prince, have you finished bathing?" Ran Er found out that Princess Laifu had always been straightforward with him, since she wanted to pretend to be him, she had to be. Unfortunately, drawing skin was easy.


    Prince Xian looked at her as she walked to the chair at the side and elegantly lifted the teacup. She drank a little, as if waiting for her response. Ran Er was not sure what his meaning was, could it be that she had to stand up to serve him? That was probably the case.


    Crash! He stood up from the water. He was clearly showing all over his body. He walked over step by step with his eyes filled with love. He really made people want to rush over to him. Unfortunately ¡ª He is a Prince Xian.


    Prince Xian had to admit that his mind was in a mess at this moment. With a woman he liked, he naturally wanted to get intimate with her. Sometimes, when he woke up at midnight, he would have a messy dream. He was a lecherous and lazy prince, but deep down, he was a clean freak. Not every woman could crawl into his bed.


    At least, she would look better than Shui Xian ¡­ Unfortunately, there were very few of them. Even if there were fake snakes and scorpions, they were extremely disgusting. Over time... No one would believe that Fleeting Time was actually a boy!


    "How did you get in?" His voice was too cold. Ran Er stiffened his body, bit his lips, and was in a dilemma on whether to speak. As he had followed beside Prince Xian for a long time, he knew that this person was extremely vigilant. Before she could have a good relationship with him, the Prince Xian said, "Since you are unwilling to say it, then I won''t force you ¡­ Someone come! "

 C251

    Ran Er was immediately filled with horror. The pool was not big, other than a table and a chair, there was no other place to hide, what other place could she hide other than in the water? She had thought of many things, but she never expected that Prince Xian would have such a plan. Zhang Huang quickly kneeled in front of Prince Xian and begged: "Prince Xian, I beg of you, please don''t call anyone over, okay? "Sob, sob ¡­"


    This man was truly heartless. He was so indifferent when faced with a seductive face that was identical to his beloved''s. He even ruthlessly kicked her out without covering her body with clothes. What was this man''s heart made of? A stone?


    "Prince ¡­" She heard movement outside, and her small face turned white with fright. Prince Xian glanced at her. If he could find Jiu Er on her body now, he would be soft-hearted, but since when was Xi Jiu Er so cowardly? She wouldn''t beg him even if she gritted her teeth ¡­


    Prince Xian didn''t move his eyes at all. He had already reached the door, so he had no choice but to jump into the water. He trembled as he looked at the door, tears flowing down his face. Prince Xian, how can you treat me like this? I like you, admire you, and go through fire and water for you, why are you so heartless?


    The door opened and five guards walked in. They led the way and knelt down to wait for orders. With a glance, they saw a beauty standing in the water. Watch? He was shocked by this thought and immediately retracted his thoughts.


    "Tell This King why a woman sneaked into this heavily guarded bedroom." Prince Xian''s expression was still angry, "You came in while I was bathing, is this job of yours for a pig''s brain?"


    The leader of the guards was surprised and immediately kowtowed: "It is this humble official''s dereliction of duty, I beg Your Highness to bypass this humble official."


    The Prince Xian did not say anything, he felt relieved, but he did not know how to handle the situation anymore. Everyone knew that the young lady was a substitute, and it was not impossible to see through people. Where could Prince Xian find people in the future? Could it be that she was going to find one for him?


    Prince Xian did not move an inch, the anger between his brows became even more obvious, and threw a tea cup at Prince Xian: "Trash, what if she is an assassin? This King''s life is worthless? "


    "Ugh ¡­" Everyone including Ran Er were startled, what did sshe mean? Assassin? That''s impossible, normally when two people are alone together there wouldn''t be any assassination attempts. Furthermore, this man was sent by the loyal subordinates of the Prince Xian, he should be reliable. Of course, anything was possible. Since the prince had already said so, there must be solid evidence.


    "Someone, go and fish her out for me." After pausing for a moment, he couldn''t help but cast a glance at Prince Xian. No matter what, it was a substitute for the Prince Xian''s beloved one.


    "Yes." The person who came immediately pulled him up like a chicken, causing Ran Er to scream out loud, "Don''t, don''t... Prince, please save me, I am not an assassin, I am not an assassin. " If they were to see her body, how could she continue to be human? It would be better to just die.


    It was a pity that there was not a single piece of cloth covering their faces. The soldiers were also wearing armor. As a result, her exquisite and beautiful body was clearly seen by others, but after following Prince Xian for so many years, they had dealt with many women who wished to climb onto the bed, so they were not surprised. However, this body was truly rare ¡­


    They were also hot-blooded men. They were all lying when they saw the woman with red fruits. It was a pity that this woman''s status was different and couldn''t be crossed over. Ran Er was like a fish that was thrown onto the marble. She screamed and at the same time covered her hiding place, begging in a low voice that was like dust, "My prince, I am not an assassin, not an assassin. Wuu ¡­"


    How could he just say that she was an assassin? Was he drunk? Ran Er tried his best to defend himself: "I am Ran Er, the Master Cai had me serve the Duke. If it was really the assassin who already took action, he wouldn''t have waited until now. Your Royal Highness, please make it clear that if I were to be an assassin, I would definitely die a horrible death. "


    Ran Er said as she crawled towards Prince Xian, but was kicked far away by him. How could this kind of attitude have the slightest bit of affection for her? Prince Xian''s brows tightly knitted as he looked down at Ran Er with concentration and seriousness. If Jiu Er begged like that, his heart would have melted long ago, even the stars in the sky would come down to please her. Unfortunately, she wouldn''t ¡­


    That pair of beautiful phoenix eyes looked as if she was drunk, which made Ran Er calm down that she was drunk. She immediately shouted: "Is Your Highness drunk? I am Ran Er, not an assassin. " Will the prince get drunk? His subordinates didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. Prince Xian was someone who was not drunk, how could he be drunk so easily?


    Prince Xian spoke slowly once again, "So it''s Ran Er, then that''s even more strange, my bedroom has always been heavily guarded, and would never let anyone wait for you in, how did you get in? "Don''t blame me for treating you as an assassin because your actions ¡­"


    Ran Er was ecstatic, the Prince Xian had apologized to her, did that mean this matter can be passed? Taking a deep breath, he smiled, "Your Highness, could you let these people go, Ran Er ¡­ Ran Er... " As she spoke, her face was so red that it seemed as if water would drip out of it.


    Unfortunately, Prince Xian didn''t notice the smile that was extremely similar to Xi Jiu Er''s. He only shot a glance at the guard beside him, and the guard said: "Quickly tell me, why did Your Highness ask you a question?


    Ran Er bit her lips and stuttered: "I drugged one of the servants just now and sent her to the toilet. I used this time to enter." She only needed to go to the toilet and sneak in to check. When the Prince Xian came to bathe, she took off her clothes and sneaked into the water without anyone noticing.


    When Prince Xian heard this, he knew that someone must be helping her. His sleeping arrangements were such that not a single drop of water could be seen. The people behind did not think too much about it because it must be the Master Cai. Looking at the old man''s responsibilities, the evidence of his corruption had always been in his hands. As an official of a region, the Master Cai did not seek for the blessings of the common people, and had plundered the ointment of the people.


    "Such skill." Prince Xian looked at the guards beside him with a smile that was not a smile: "A bunch of trash can''t even compare to a woman." He started to scold all over, his face and ears flushed red. His originally petty thoughts towards Ran Er had immediately disappeared, and after spending a long time with the Prince Xian, he began to be picky about women as well. He lived at home the best, and it was better to have less of those flowery hearts of snakes and scorpions. He thought she was an assassin, a fart assassin, who had sneaked in to climb the bed without permission.


    The reason why she chose this time was because she couldn''t wait any longer. Prince Xian''s bedroom was heavily guarded, and she couldn''t climb onto the bed at all. She covered her face, tears streaming down her face as she meekly called out, "Prince ¡­" He knew what he had given him. He knew it.

 C252

    Prince Xian stood up slowly as streams of light flowed down from the floor. He stood in front of Ran Er and said each and every word: "Even though you have a similar face, you are less than a finger to her. If it really is her, then I will serve her and you are unworthy. "


    Ran Er originally came from a small clan, so she was naturally not as magnanimous as Xi Jiu Er. This kind of insult was nothing to her, but that one sentence, ''If it really is her, then I will personally serve her, and you are not worthy. " It shocked her. What kind of status did the Prince Xian have to be served personally? He was extremely jealous of the Princess Laifu in his heart. Why was it that even though she was so similar to the Princess Laifu, her fate was so rough?


    "Someone, bring a piece of cloth to Master Cai." If she was obedient, at that time, he would let her serve him as a servant. He looked at her face, and carefully observed where she looked as if he did not have any trace of Jiu Er''s charm. Don''t look at him immediately.


    Ran Er''s face immediately lost all color, her heart felt like it was being pulled by someone, she looked at Prince Xian in disbelief, how could she still have the face to be a human after she was kicked out of the Prince Xian? When the time came, everyone would know that she had been chased out of Prince Xian and it was still the same ¡­


    He raised his head and looked at Prince Xian. The despair in his eyes was like an unfathomable well. Not long later, a soldier brought her a robe and put it on. At that moment, she thought of death. But she couldn''t die, and she still needed to support her family ¡­ The pain in his mouth spread all over his body.


    Deep into the night, in the little Young Master''s room, Xi Jiu Er was bathing. The sting in her heart suddenly returned, only to be covered by a large hand, causing her to immediately not dare to move at all. A very familiar smell made her suddenly think of someone: He, why is he ¡­ and came running over...


    She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. She was still bathing, and once she stood up, her body would be exposed. Who would have thought that a hand would suddenly reach into the bathtub? She was so shocked that she almost screamed out again. That big hand swung in the water, touching something she didn''t know. Blood dripped from his face, and he looked like a tender pink doll.


    His face was in pain as he peeled off the human skin mask. He resented the fact that he was a weak girl without any strength. He did not have any talent in martial arts. Otherwise, he would not have been at the mercy of others and would not have been able to counterattack.


    "Jiu Er..." A moist wind blew past his ears, causing him to feel numb. Xi Jiu Er smiled: "How do you know it''s me?" Previously when Feng Qing Cheng tried to probe her, she was sure that he was only suspicious.


    "You and I have already become husband and wife, how could I not know your smell?" With his hot lips rubbing against each other, Xi Jiu Er closed his eyes to recall what was wrong. He immediately understood that it must be because he was in that huge pit today ¡­


    His breathing was rough and messy, Xi Jiu Er turned to face him, still her peerlessly beautiful face, without a gentle and refined pair of eyes to be extremely sharp. Yan Er''s expression suddenly changed to one of ridicule: "His Highness the Fourth Prince, why haven''t you been drinking the Fourth Prince''s Consort with her for the whole night?"


    "Are you jealous?" Feng Qing Cheng felt that she was jealous just like that, and was overjoyed in her heart. Then, before the smile could even reach his mouth, Xi Jiu Er''s beautiful face became as expressionless as the cold ice of summer: "Am I jealous? How can I be jealous if I don''t have anything to do with you? "Heh!"


    Feng Qing Cheng lowered his eyes: "I know you are angry at me."


    Anger? Xi Jiu Er laughed again, but her heart was in pain: "Annoyed? Why are you angry? Is it because you lied to me? This is nothing to me. I will not be annoyed by a scam that doesn''t care about people. In any case, the two of us just happened to meet by chance. "


    Suddenly, Feng Qing Cheng raised her head, staring deadly into Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, wanting to see something in her eyes. Her heart sank a little bit. She was indeed a heartless woman. After all, she was the first man. How could she leave him behind? Even if she was a friend, how could he be inferior to her? In his heart, she was both angry and vexed. Instead, she smiled and said, "Meeting by chance? Like a stranger? Jiu Er sure knows how to joke around, have you forgotten about our one year agreement? "


    "One year agreement? It was all my bullshit, are you serious? " Xi Jiu Er sneered, the water gradually became cold, in order to maintain her ridicule, her heart was trembling, why did she not leave? Only now did Feng Qing Cheng notice her expression, and with a swipe of his hand, he pulled Xi Jiu Er out of the water. Xi Jiu Er almost fainted: My darling, how could this man think of something when it''s something when it''s something, she can come out herself, now it''s over, I''ve seen everything.


    "Pa ¡ª ¡ª" Feng Qing Cheng had just wrapped Xi Jiu Er tightly in the bathrobe that was placed on the shelf, when her face suddenly hurt. She was as fierce as a wild beast that was about to bite a person as she spoke word by word, "Get out! "Immediately, immediately!"


    Her fair and tender skin had become rouge red due to her anger. She looked very different with her rosy white skin. Feng Qing Cheng''s Adam''s apple rolled down, his eyes blazing. Xi Jiu Er took a step back due to the fervent look in his eyes. His imposing manner immediately lowered a bit, but his mouth still showed no mercy: "I have nothing to do with you, from now on you will be your prince, I will be my Young Master, and will not interact with you ever again."


    Feng Qing Cheng took a deep breath and said slowly, "Jiu Er, there are a lot of things that I can explain to you in the future ¡­" interrupted her words out of impatience: "You don''t need to explain to me that I don''t want to listen, what''s the point? Just move away from me."


    She started to consider if she should leave with her bag. Feng Qing Cheng was so gentle and refined, so soft and gentle. She was sure that this man knew how to act more than the Prince Xian. She began to have a headache at the thought.


    "Jiu Er!" Feng Qing Cheng gasped so much that he nearly choked on his own saliva. Suddenly, his gaze locked onto the slightly bulging lower abdomen, and revealed a look of astonishment. "You''re pregnant? Speak, whose child! " He didn''t see how Feng Qing Cheng had moved in a flash to right in front of him. His throat was strangled by five claws and his gaze was terrifying.


    "Let go ¡­" Xi Jiu Er coughed: "Yes, I am pregnant, and the child is not yours." If it was said that Feng Qing Cheng''s persistence in treating him as a man was due to that man''s face, then now, she had ruthlessly swept away his face and cut off his temper. "If you dare hurt even the slightest bit of my child, even as a ghost, I won''t let you off."


    Feng Qing Cheng clenched his teeth and took a few deep breaths before he calmed himself down. When their eyes met, he suddenly laughed, and as if he was staring at a warm April wind, Xi Jiu Er was shocked that he had changed in an instant.

 C253

    "I had great news to tell you, but your behavior is very displeasing to me." Feng Qing Cheng laughed and shook the safety button off. Xi Jiu Er breathed in hard and tried to step forward to take a look, but he was pulled into her own embrace with lightning speed.


    "Where did you get it?" Xi Jiu Er clenched her teeth as she asked each question, her head rumbling with pain, this safety button was exactly the same as the one Liu Xiang had, she had not found it when Liu Xiang died and thought that Liu Xiang had lost it.


    "Who do you think you are? Why are you ordering me?" Feng Qing Cheng was now as noble as a prince, as if Xi Jiu Er was a lowly ant, but this ant stared at him without admitting defeat, it was so quiet.


    Regardless if Liu Xiang was really still alive, Feng Qing Cheng''s actions were to retaliate against her, let him be, once he finishes venting his anger, the two of them would not interfere with each other anymore. Since there were new clues, his heart ignited with hope, hope that Liu Xiang was still alive.


    "Hmph." Xi Jiu Er''s attitude returned to its previous ice-cold state, as though it was indifferent to the world, and once again angered Feng Qing Cheng. It forcefully grabbed onto Xi Jiu Er''s wrist and almost crushed it, and stared at Xi Jiu Er with its ice-cold eyes: "Don''t you want to ask?"


    The man was very strange. Just now, he was still unwilling to say it, but now he wanted to ask, could it be that he wanted to tease him again so that he wouldn''t have to say anything at the beginning? That pair of eyes shone brilliantly under the moonlight. When Feng Qing Cheng looked at her face, there was an abnormal sense of beauty, as if even the love and hate on her face were calm and tranquil.


    "Ugh ¡­" Both of Xi Jiu Er''s arms were held tightly by the powerful big hands, causing her to be unable to move at all. Feng Qing Cheng was like a ball of fire, she could feel that he was extremely angry, and wanted to tear her into his lower abdomen to swallow him up. She didn''t understand what she had done to provoke him. This man didn''t have the slightest bit of gentleness on his body. His violent aura made her suffocate.


    "Mm ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng''s body stiffened as she was stung by something. She immediately stopped moving and the air was filled with the scent of blood.


    Xi Jiu Er squatted on the floor and stared at the bathtub in a daze, an urge to escape forced her to leave overnight, as she had no relationship with this man at all. Gritting her lips, she slowly crawled over to pick up the human skin mask. She couldn''t leave, there were too many things she still needed to complete.


    The First Young Master of the Prime Minister''s Estate had a good relationship with Song Tian, it was not really a good relationship, but this time, when Song Tian came back, he found out that he had already posted a message, so he came to visit today. Zhang Cui Lan was feeling uneasy as she paced back and forth. She did not know that this young master who had read a lot of poems would take a fancy to him.


    "Alright, follow my instructions. If you don''t say anything, you''ll definitely succeed, and you''re pretty close." After what happened last night, the flames in Xi Jiu Er''s chest started to spew out, causing her to dazzle until she was about to vomit.


    Zhang Cui Lan laughed awkwardly, she pretended to be calm, and worriedly asked the servant to bring over the bronze mirror to check if there was anything wrong with the makeup. The hair ornaments could be messy, and the dress had wrinkles on it, she was busy.


    Xi Jiu Er looked coldly at Zhang Cui Lan, and a servant reported that the young noble, the prime minister, had arrived, and the carriage was already outside the door.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up and left without turning her head around. Behind him, Zhang Cui Lan opened his mouth but then closed it again, thinking that the little Young Master was right, after giving him the chance, he would see how she could seize and fight for it. She sucked in a deep breath with determination in her eyes. She definitely had to marry the prime minister and lead a better life.


    The young master of the Prime Minister was a famous scholar in the Wind Nation. Perhaps it was because he was more outstanding than his lecherous and lecherous younger brother, who had so many girls that wanted to marry him. Right now, he was nineteen years old and was unmarried. There were only a few Madame s and no children yet. and his brother and child are five years old... His younger brother was only seventeen years old ¡­


    The young man at the door was dashing forward in a blue long jog. His facial features were exquisite, and he had an air of nobility. The corner of his mouth was hung with an extremely refined smile. Like an orchid, it was quiet and unassuming, with a unique flavor to it.


    Xi Jiu Er walked a few steps forward and clasped her hands: "Brother Cao Nan, we have parted for three years, I am honored."


    Cao Nan replied: "Brother Song Tian, why must you be so courteous to us brothers?" He sized up Xi Jiu Er and praised him repeatedly, "I have always said that you need not look at me in another three days, but Brother Song, you look completely different after not seeing you for three years, as if you have been reborn."


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and laughed, revealing endless elegance as she said politely: "Brother Cao Nan is joking, please come in." Making a ''please'' that was completely different from her impolite look from before made Cao Nan sigh in her heart.


    "I should let that good-for-nothing brother of mine go on a trip too. Who knows, maybe he''ll come back and understand everything." Cao Nan laughed heartily. Xi Jiu Er only chuckled beside him: "Second Young Master Cao is a dragon and phoenix amongst men. I heard that these few years are already much better." It was no longer as absurd as it was in the past, but its personality was still amorous.


    Cao Nan laughed bitterly not wanting to talk about the heartbreaking and head-hurting younger brother, he turned his attention to Xi Jiu Er, "Tell me, how did you manage to get over these past three years, and what have you seen?"


    "His heart is thinner than the paper of destiny. I just understand a lot." Cao Nan was not someone that could be easily fooled, she welcomed Cao Nan''s gaze and smiled lightly: "mother''s autumn chrysanthemum is just right for growing, how about we go to the garden?"


    "Please do as you wish."


    When they arrived at the back garden, they saw a patch of yellow and white decorating the backyard. The chrysanthemums were big and plump, growing very well under the sun. Walking amidst the flowers, Cao Nan said with a smile: "When you return, all of Madame Song are in a good mood. Look at the flower garden behind the garden, it''s being taken care of by her."


    "I''ve already ordered the servants to prepare some food and wine ¡­" Before Xi Jiu Er could finish speaking, a burst of zither music rose up and reached her ears. The zither music did not seem to be playing very well, but the song was very interesting.


    "This ¡­" Cao Nan followed behind Xi Jiu Er and came to the side of an elegant fake mountain. On the stone table, there was already a bottle of wine, which Cao Nan liked to drink everyday.


    "It''s a pleasure for us to eat and play with a beautiful woman." Xi Jiu Er lifted her sleeves and poured some wine for Cao Nan. Her skin was even whiter than the porcelain, making it hard for people to shift their eyes away.


    "Brother Song is right." The moment Jiu Er raised her head, he immediately changed the topic and coughed: "I wonder who the beauty playing this zither is, she has a good score on this song, it''s very novel."


    Zhang Cui Lan only knew how to start from the melody. Xi Jiu Er sat down and laughed: "This is my Sister-in-law, Miss Zhang."

 C254

    "Pfft ¡ª ¡ª" Cao Nan''s eyes opened. Wasn''t Zhang Cui Lan determined to marry Song Tian, how did she become his Sister-in-law? A woman dressed in an emerald green cheongsam walked over leisurely from the long hallway. In his memories, this Zhang Cui Lan could only be described as extremely beautiful. She did not seem dignified or frivolous.


    After taking a look at it this time, he had a new understanding of it. He did not presumptuously size up Zhang Cui Lan and slightly bowed: "Miss Zhang." This was also because she was a Sister-in-law of Song Tian.


    In his heart, Zhang Cui Lan was extremely flattered, but on the surface, he did not even deign to lower his eyes, bowing in an extremely dignified manner: "Greetings to Young Master Cao, Young Master Cao is extremely fortunate. "Greetings to big brother, big brother is blissful."


    Just like what kind of woman Cao Nan had never seen before, just the fact that the Prime Minister Cao''s concubines were all beauties with beauty, was a different story altogether. Second Young Master Cao was also a person who loved beauties alone. A man who spent his days around beauties naturally had his own evaluation of beauties. She was not a beauty to begin with, so she had to think of another way.


    Seeing that Young Master Cao was an extremely flirtatious person, and that ordinary women were not able to enter his eyes, he grew nervous. He decided to follow Xi Jiu Er''s instructions and not stay any longer, and bid farewell after a slight bow.


    "How did this woman become your Sister-in-law?" Cao Nan asked.


    Xi Jiu Er only laughed: "It''s because this mother wants to say that she knows how to read a book and is considerate towards others. For so many years, this mother has always wanted to have a daughter who could fulfill this wish." Seeing Cao Nan''s expression, she felt that she still needed to add fuel to the fire, and said: mother wants to find a marriage for her, I wonder if Brother Cao Nan has anyone else?


    "This ¡­" Cao Nan was surprised, didn''t the female Engagement listen to his parents? Then, she thought that since Song Tian was her sworn brother, it was natural to ask. Although the youths he knew were a lot, even though this Zhang Cui Lan had the Song Family as his backer, he was still very powerful ¡­


    "Not long after I returned, I accompanied the mother and did not go out to find friends with them. I wonder how they were doing even after three years." It means that I don''t know about the situation of those young masters outside. Xi Jiu Er sighed lightly: "Because of my sudden birth, Miss Zhang delayed for a few years. My heart is guilty and only wants her to look for a marriage."


    "Let me think about it." Cao Nan knew that he could not be careless about this matter, it also had to do with his personal matters. Thinking back, there were not many people who were suitable for Zhang Cui Lan. No one had a choice but to think of their younger brother ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er did not rush him, and ate all the small dishes in one go. Suddenly, from his sleeve, a heptagram with the word ''birthday'' rolled down, and on it was Zhang Cui Lan''s name. Cao Nan was startled. "How about this, I''ll go find a teacher to let him, a Miss Zhang, calculate it, and then I''ll have confidence in myself." He was very clear about his good friends'' invitation. This way, he would have a way out.


    "Wow, why didn''t I think of this method?" Xi Jiu Er passed the invitation to Cao Nan, and after the two chatted for a while, Cao Nan decided to have a drink with Xi Jiu Er three days later. After bidding farewell, Zhang Cui Lan impatiently walked out and asked: "Big brother, how''s everything going?"


    "Everything is going well. If you want to marry the Young Master Cao, there is no hope." Xi Jiu Er left with her hands behind her back.


    Zhang Cui Lan also knew that a young master like Cao Nan would not fall for him. She did not want to see the young master of the Cao family who was filled with people from the Wind Nation, but a woman had married well and did not look good on herself. The girl she knew had married into a high-class family. Her means were excellent, and her life was flourishing like the wind and the water. At that time, she knew that even if the Gao Clan was like a dragon, or a tiger, they would still be unable to marry her.


    "Little Young Master ¡­" A young servant came over and laughed: "Little Young Master, this is the fabric Madame has chosen, do you like it?" A brocade robe that was red and dazzling under the sun''s rays, the dark cloud pattern on its surface was just like a golden flower of extraordinary splendor, making it hard for people to look directly at it.


    Xi Jiu Er''s face showed neither joy nor anger, she only said indifferently: This robe looks suitable for father, so let the elder wear it. With that, she continued to walk away with her hands behind her back.


    Red was the color she hated the most now, and she couldn''t help but think of the Prince Xian. When she thought about that bastard Feng Qing Cheng who looked even worse than the Prince Xian, an evil fire burned in her heart.


    The manservant muttered, "These are the most popular pieces of clothing this year. They''re all worn by young noble sons ¡­" As he spoke, he headed back.


    On the other hand, Prince Xian Mu Qiu Shui had blocked Wei Guogong''s pigeons in the middle of the night ¡­ His subordinates were sweating profusely as they stammered, "Your highness... It''s not good for us to be like this. "


    Prince Xian''s beautiful eyes were even more enchanting than a woman''s. As she spoke, she quickly grabbed the small piece of paper from the pigeon''s leg and looked at it, her brows tensed up. His underling did not know what his master had read, but his face turned darker and darker. After that, he began to reveal his white teeth with a strange expression on his face.


    Aiya, could it be that there is some shameful secret behind this, or the Wei Guogong is trying to sell our country? She had sinned, he suspected that no one could doubt the Wei Guogong, that was a generation''s official, it deserved its name. However, why did Her Highness look like she had discovered something shameful?


    Prince Xian sat back down and stuffed the letter back in his mouth. He looked at the pigeon that was still pestering itself on his table and smacked its butt while scolding, "Hurry up and f * ck off!"


    Although the Wei Guogong didn''t mention her name, from his tone, it sounded like he was writing a letter to someone ¡­ As for who a certain someone was, he was seventy to eighty percent sure of it. If it really was this person, hmph, she would be extremely angry. However, what was he going to face next ¡­


    Prince Xian never thought that the woman he had humiliated would be able to face something like this. What he did not expect was that, this seemingly insignificant woman who was similar to Xi Jiu Er, would actually turn the tide with a flip of her hand.


    Ran Er was kicked out of the Master Cai. It was raining outside, so she used an umbrella to support her body as she walked. The passersby were all curious and pointed at her while discussing.


    She was muddle-headed to a small courtyard and took out a key to open the door. Once she closed the door, her body slid down the wall and she couldn''t help but start crying. What to do? What to do in the future?


    "No, there will still be a way. Yes, there will still be a way. Princess Laifu is already dead, and I look so similar to her. She muttered to herself. Now that she had lost her identity as a substitute, what else could she do? Without connections in the future, he would need silver for big ones.

 C255

    Silver? She slipped fifty taels under the brick under the bed for emergency use. He crawled under the bed and took out the brick. When he saw that it was empty, he was shocked. This 50 taels of silver was all he had. Nothing could happen to him. He reached out his hand and found that it was still empty ¡­ He was so scared that cold sweat broke out all over his body.


    She crawled out and sat on the ground in a daze. She had hidden her money very well and had not been discovered. Now that it had disappeared, only one person would take it: her father. Could it be ¡ª was it really her father''s doing? His heart sank as he turned around and ran out the room. He couldn''t open the door and tried to knock on it. "Father, open the door, open the door ¡­"


    Perhaps it was because her tone was too hasty, but the man, who was originally drowsy in the room, quickly got up and opened the door for her. Now she was the family''s money lender, and everything depended on her.


    "He''s here, he''s here. What happened?" An old man with a disheveled head and a drunk face walked out from the house. He looked at his daughter who was extremely terrified, and asked with a surprised expression, "Something happened?"


    "Father, did you take away the fifty liang I hid under the bed? "Father?" Ran Er was so anxious that she almost cried. However, her father did not care at all. He thought that something big had happened, and mumbled: It''s just fifty silver, you can ask Master Cai or Prince Xian for it. They will definitely give it to you. You are currently the beloved one of Prince Xian. "


    He then turned around and went back to his bed. How could he care about his daughter''s panic? The previous fifty taels was not a small sum to them. But now? That Master Cai is generous ¡­ As he thought of this, he happily fell asleep again.


    "Father, did you go to gamble again?" "We''re not the same anymore ¡­" Ran Er thought about Prince Xian''s humiliation, and about Master Cai''s face that was full of lust. His tears couldn''t help but flow uncontrollably, and he had no place to talk about the bitterness in his heart.


    "Father, you were so good before, so ambitious. "He said that when we go to the capital, you will have to make use of our relationship as Master Cai to accomplish some business. Why did you get infected with the gamble ¡­" Ran Er cried. His father wasn''t like this in the past, he was good, he knew how to play the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, he also knew how to take care of her. Now, unless he was gambling or drinking, he ignored her.


    "Gulp." The man impatiently covered his head with his hands and fell asleep. Soon, he heard snoring sounds and could not suppress the grief in his heart. After crying for a while, her head became clear again. Right now, she was penniless. Where would she go to get the money? She suddenly thought of the many good things that the Master Cai and Prince Xian had bestowed to her and it had always been placed in the Prince Xian''s courtyard. Last night, she had been sent out by the Prince Xian and hadn''t taken them since then.


    Since those things had been given to him, then it would be him ¡­ No matter what, it would cost him five hundred taels of silver. Five hundred taels of silver was enough to accomplish a lot of things. Right now, she could only grit her teeth and go get what was hers ¡­ In any case, she no longer had any face, so she didn''t care about that anymore.


    Seeing that it was getting late, Ran Er picked up her umbrella and ran into the rain, praying that she would have a safe journey and be able to retrieve what was his.


    She walked into the backyard, and the person in the backyard said with disgust, "Didn''t you go out? Why did you come back?" Ran Er''s initial actions had already spread and were known by the servants.


    Ran Er resented this in her heart, but she could only force a smile and say, "I''m here to take the items."


    "Something?" What is it? He''s been kicked out, and you still have something for him? You want to steal something, right? You''re not allowed to go in there. " The gatekeeper wanted to kick her out immediately. According to her understanding of Prince Xian''s sleeping time, she knew that Prince Xian was not here, so he said: "It was Prince Xian who told me to pack my things and scram."


    Hearing that, the guard became suspicious, he looked at Ran Er and asked: "Really?"


    "Yes, the Prince told me to pack my things and get out of here." Ran Er learnt Prince Xian''s words and dispelled the guard''s doubts. Originally, they had thought that Ran Er would be able to reach a whole new level, but they never thought that she would actually be able to do so in the end. Perhaps she would be heavily favored again in the future. Therefore, the guard''s change in attitude was not without reason.


    "Alright, hurry up and get out of here."


    Ran Er was extremely grateful. Walking from the remote alley, she entered her room, who would have thought that she would meet a young girl who was dressed like a servant, this young girl was gifted to him by Master Cai, and became her servant. There was a huge gap between her and him ¡­ Therefore, the two of them had always been competing with each other.


    Ran Er cursed in her heart, Why did he have to meet her? Just as she was about to dodge, he was discovered by the other party. A strange voice rang out, "Yo yo yo, look who''s here. Isn''t that our future wangfei?"


    Ran Er took a deep breath, lowered her head, and said, "I''m here to take my own things ¡­"


    "Great ¡­" The young girl said straightforwardly, "I''ve already prepared the things for you. Come."


    The two of them once had a conflict with each other. How could she be so kind now? Could it be that Prince Xian had given instructions before? Ran Er followed the girl into the house and smashed a bundle on her face.


    "These are all your trash. Hurry up and f * ck off." Ran Er opened her bag and saw that there were only a few pieces of clothes inside that she had brought along. No wonder she was so straightforward to the point that those clothes were not even worth anything to him.


    Ran Er said unhappily: What about the other things? What about the things that the king bestowed to me, and the things that the Master Cai bestowed to me? "


    "You''re already chased out, yet you still want these things? Dream on. "Hmph, it would be better if you didn''t say anything about it. If you didn''t, then I''ll just give it to the beggar ¡­" Originally, she wanted to climb onto Prince Xian''s bed as well, because she didn''t have this kind of thought with the help of Ran Er.


    "Th-that''s something that was originally mine. Could it be that it''s yours that''s bestowed to me?" Ran Er clenched her teeth and retorted. She had to get her things back, since these things could save her life. She did not want to starve to death on the streets.


    "Yo, you''ve still grown up huh? You''re just a commoner now. Your reputation has already spread far and wide. Shameless bastard ¡­" The young girl''s charming appearance was no longer there. Instead, she had a sharp and unkind expression.


    "You!" Ran Er was so embarrassed that her face turned red, and she bit her lips with eyes full of hatred. One day, one day, she would return the humiliation she had suffered today. Lowering his eyes, a plan formed in his mind: "Elder sister, Ran Er will never forget today''s grace."


    "You got the chance? You''re just like a drowning dog, do you really think you can carry me? " The young girl scoffed in disbelief.


    "Big sister, it''s just a small favor, to Ran Er, it''s actually saving her life. Ran Er will definitely not forget this kind of kindness. " Ran Er raised her head with an extremely sincere face, her eyes full of gratitude.

 C256

    The girl frowned and did not think for long before she agreed, "Alright, take a look and see if there''s anything you need. Then you can go and pack it up." In any case, she had already divided the valuable items to him, and what was left behind was not worth much. If she wanted to do him a favor, then so be it.


    Ran Er went back to her room to pack up and discovered that many valuable things were all gone. She immediately became angry, and without asking, she already knew what was going on. She packed up some things that could be sold for money and said a few words of courtesy before leaving.


    The rain outside had already stopped. As Ran Er was packing up her things and walking back, a man''s voice suddenly came from above his head. The person who came was an acquaintance of hers, a childhood friend of hers.


    The man had an elegant, jade-like appearance. He was quite handsome, only that he was a bit too feminine. If he was dressed as a woman, he would definitely resemble her. He was a playboy, his voice and appearance made people feel tender affection for him. Although Ran Er was from a small family, there were still one or two servants in the room.


    And every time when she was still Miss, she would ask him to sing a song for her. As time passed, the two of them would come to a tacit understanding and become vague about it, but that was when she was Huang Hua''s eldest daughter. And he had just joined the cast, so how could he be famous?


    When she saw the man she once liked, not only did her heart start to beat wildly, but the man said to the waiter with a slight smile, "I''ve met a good friend. Go and prepare me more dishes and wine."


    The manservant next to him immediately gave the waiter some silver. He knew what sort of things the waiter had never seen. He then said, "Alright, I''ll go right now." With that, he bowed and left.


    The actor was called Qing Yi. He smiled at Ran Er and said, "If you don''t mind, why don''t you let us drink a few cups together?"


    Ran Er replied: "Sure." After saying that, she followed Qing Yi into the room. Qing Yi told the attendant to wait outside and not disturb her. If there were any suspicious people, she would inform them. The valet nodded, knowing that there must be something about the two of them that no one else was allowed to hear.


    As soon as they entered the room, the two of them sat down. "I thought I''d never see you again after traveling with the crew," Qingyi said. After a pause, she asked, "How have you been these past few years?" With that, she looked at Ran Er with affection.


    Ran Er liked him because he knew him. He was too old to continue singing, he had to have a way out. Besides, he couldn''t sing for the rest of his life! Since Ran Er likes her, why not let her help him think of a way? He had heard that there was a girl called Ran Er at Prince Xian''s side. He had sent people to find out who he was and who he was. A burst of excitement filled her heart ¡­


    Ran Er nodded his head: "I''m fine, what about you?"


    Qing Yi sighed, as if everything had been set in stone, and only said gently: "Thank you, Little Sister Ran Er, for thinking so much of me."


    His addressing Ran Er as little sister had undoubtedly made Ran Er excited, her heart racing. At that time, Ran Er''s father did not allow two people to interact with each other. Firstly, Ran Er was too young, and secondly, Qing Yi was a playboy with a bad identity. After that, Qingyi went on a trip to the north with the troupe and never returned ¡­


    Not long later, the dishes were served, the two of them remained silent until Ran Er started to feel dizzy from the alcohol, while Qing Yi was not drunk at all. Looking at Ran Er who was sprawled on the table, he said: "See if you can''t go back like this, how about I send you?"


    Although Ran Er was drunk, she had an impulse to do something, so she said: "Qingyi, Qingyi ¡­" As she said that, she tugged on Qing Yi''s wrist. Looking at the person she liked, she felt wronged as she thought about her recent humiliation. When Qingyi''s gentle eyes looked over, she couldn''t help but cry.


    This gave Qing Yi a big fright. Seeing that her face was so pretty, she found it hard to control her lips and kissed. Ran Er was still just a virgin, she was immediately moved!


    An hour later, the two of them finally could not bear to part. Ran Er said: "I, I am yours now ¡­ "What should we do?" She regretted that she didn''t act on impulse earlier. Now that her eyes had reddened, what should she do?


    Qing Yi immediately embraced her and said, "You can come and find me if you have anything in the future. We can agree on this place, don''t worry, I will be responsible for you. It''s a pity that my status is so low that I can''t give you a good life ¡­" "Sigh ¡­"


    He sighed again, "Don''t worry. Since you''re my woman, I can''t give you what others will give you. I''ll think of a way for you to marry an official and live a good life."


    "Qingyi ¡­" Ran Er was moved, she hugged Qing Yi and cried silently, she had no choice in being born, even if she wanted to live with Qing Yi, that kind of life was not what she wanted.


    After Ran Er left, the servant that came in saw Qing Yi lying on the bed with a triumphant smile, while the bed was in a mess, he knew what was happening, what was there to ask? He served his master silently. Qingyi looked at the attendant and said, "Only you and I know about this. If we know about the third person, I won''t forgive you."


    The attendant quickly knelt down and said, "This servant knows, I definitely won''t say a single word."


    The servant knew that Qing Yi had a bad temper, so he got up and continued to dress up for her until she was done cleaning up before returning. The place to go back is where the troupe lives.


    "What did you do today? Why are you back so late?" the class chairman asked, standing at the door.


    Qing Yi laughed in her heart, "Of course it''s to do good deeds. Class leader, I''ve already found the person. He''s just waiting to add fuel to the fire."


    The class chairman immediately came over, his expression already changing into a frown: "Really? "Brat, she''s a money grubber. Once you''re done, you''ll be able to rise to the top."


    Qing Yi chuckled in a complacent manner. "She still has feelings for me. This matter is settled easily."


    The class chairman frowned, "We should get our people over there as soon as possible. We''re being urged again. You know we can''t afford to drink that much over there." An idea came to him, "Why don''t we prescribe some medicine for her to pass out and then bring her to Wind Nation without anyone noticing? "Even if there''s a problem along the way, you can comfort a single girl like her and not cause too much trouble."


    "This ¡­" Qing Yi was a little hesitant, but the class master still scolded her, "People who achieve great things do not care about trifling matters. Think about it, it is ten thousand taels of silver. I still need to drag you down with me. "


    The last sentence was the most pleasing to the ears. Qing Yi chuckled and said, "Sure, sure. Wealth wins together." As if seeing her own future, Qing Yi made up her mind. "Fine, let''s discuss how we should settle this matter." Fortunately, he had paved the way earlier and did not appear too out of place.

 C257

    In the Prime Minister''s Estate, the Charming Fragrance Garden was the Prime Minister''s most beloved woman ¡ª ¡ª The Nine Serenities One Incense., who used to be the Prime Minister, had now inherited Yan Niang''s teachings personally. The mother of cinnamon that served today said that the Prime Minister had gone to the Southern Courtyard and sneered.


    Prime Minister Cao was short and fat, and also pitch black. If not for him being the Prime Minister, no one would have cared about him. It had been a long time since he had come to the Southern Courtyard today, so he brought a group of people with him to the Southern Courtyard, where they had dinner.


    Naturally, the Lady Yi of the Southern Courtyard waited on him attentively in every way possible, even personally bathing him when she went to bed. When the time came, she would change into a new set of robes. What was supposed to be revealed was now as though a shadow had appeared ¡­


    Prime Minister Cao lifted Lady Yi''s chin. The woman who was originally around thirty years old blushed like a young girl and said in a soft voice, "Prime minister ¡­"


    "No more washing, just help me sleep." The Prime Minister Cao said indifferently.


    How could the Lady Yi not understand what she meant? Then, she ordered the maidservants to add a brazier. The brazier''s charcoal fire was not very good, so the Prime Minister Cao gave an embarrassed smile as he looked at Lady Yi.


    All the idle people in the room had left. Lady Yi had acted as my servant to serve the Prime Minister, so she suddenly asked: "Have you followed me for thirteen years?"


    "Prime Minister, it''s fifteen years ¡­" Lady Yi''s voice was choked with sobs. Fifteen years ago, she had married this man to become one of his women.


    "Fifteen years ¡­" The Prime Minister Cao sighed. This night, Prime Minister Cao felt bored and his face paled. With a cold voice, he asked, "Prime Minister, did I serve you badly?"


    "No." Prime Minister Cao shook his head and said, "Don''t think too much about it. I just suddenly thought that I have something to take care of. Rest well... I''m leaving. "


    Lady Yi walked to the door, her expression was sad, she could not even act as a sex servant, the kind excuse, the gentle tone, was already enough to comfort her.


    "Close the door." Lady Yi said dejectedly.


    "Madame, maybe the Prime Minister has already returned ¡­" Lady Yi laughed off her mother who had served him for so many years. How long could she live without her heart and shell? of


    Prime Minister Cao initially didn''t want to hurt Lady Yi''s heart. To think that a woman who had followed him for more than ten years would still be able to stay in his manor. But not far away, the Charming Fragrance Garden was attracted to him like a soul summoning spirit, and in the end, was immersed in the beauty''s fragrance.


    "I pay my respects to the Prime Minister." Xi Wan Feng bowed respectfully. She was extremely gentle and alluring, and her every move carried a natural seductive force, making it impossible for a man to extricate himself from it.


    Prime Minister Cao''s lower abdomen heated up. He was not satisfied and immediately carried her into the house. After about half an incense worth of time, the servants helped the two of them bathe, and naturally did not mention it again.


    Prime Minister Cao was already old and couldn''t handle these few times anymore, so he lay on the bed drowsily. At this time, Xi Wan Feng came over and whispered: "Prime Minister, I have something that I do not know, and should not say."


    "Ugh ¡­" "Go ahead." Prime Minister Cao forced his eyes open. His voice sounded satisfied, but his expression was the same. Xi Wan Feng endured the nausea in his heart and leaned over to whisper, "Prime Minister ¡­" Then she whispered.


    The Prime Minister Cao was shocked, he turned his head and asked: "Is what you said true?"


    "Of course, how would I dare deceive the Prime Minister in the slightest?" Xi Wan Feng immediately stuck close to him, "This humble one was gifted to the Prime Minister by the Fifth Prince. If she could catch the weakness of the fourth prince, then this woman would be extremely useful. "


    "Oh? "After all, a double is a double. As long as you pay attention, you will definitely be able to find something ¡­" Prime Minister Cao frowned. They all said that Prime Minister Cao was a neutral faction, but in reality, they were already secretly approaching the Fifth Prince to become his men. Actually, this had a great deal to do with the beauty that the Fifth Prince sent over. After all, he couldn''t not be separated from the woman in front of him.


    "What if this woman has lost her memory? Has his personality changed because of amnesia? " Xi Wan Feng smiled charmingly as her jade-like fingers streaked across her fat chest. Her eyes were like water as she stared at the fat and ugly man in front of her, her heart filled with sorrow. The former first talented girl had already become a Madame who welcomed people with his looks ¡­ The nameless battle continued.


    The next morning, when Prime Minister Cao was in the morning assembly, he bumped into a servant girl, only to hear a young lady''s cry of ''aiya''. With two clangs, a bucket of water was poured on his body, revealing her beautiful figure.


    "Prime Minister, please spare my life, this Servant did not do it on purpose, not on purpose." The maid was so scared that his face turned ashen. Because her chest was trembling ¡­ When he saw this, the Prime Minister''s eyes grew warm. Women had always been his beloved in his heart, but he was extremely picky. He could tell from his many years of experience that the woman in front of him was of the highest class.


    "Forget it, forget it ¡­" "Let''s go." Prime Minister Cao took one last look at the servant girl before she left. Xi Wan Feng was naturally well aware of what had happened in Charming Fragrance Garden, and he coldly spat out two words: "I drowned."


    "Yes." The mother of cinnamon nodded.


    "Go. The success or failure will depend on your luck today." Xi Jiu Er pushed Zhang Cui Lan who was beside him, from not too far away, a horse carriage came over, the horse carriage was luxurious, the carriage''s attendant was also dressed bright and extraordinary, with one glance, it was clear that the heavens were favored by the children.


    Many people recognized this carriage, the special carriage used by the Second Young Master Cao. Speaking of which, the Cao family really has an endless stream of topics to talk about. Just speaking of these two young masters, the eldest young master was very knowledgeable, and the second young master who was like an unruly man was even more liked by Master Cao.


    However, the Prime Minister Cao doted on the second son for being lawless, and no one knew if they should laugh or cry at the sight of their eldest son, afraid that he would become a cat. Therefore, everyone said that the Young Master Cao was the one who made the decisions to turn it over and over again.


    Success or failure in one move, Zhang Cui Lan bit her lips and slowly walked towards the carriage. In such a public place, if she were to act in such a manner, her reputation would be ruined.


    "Ga! Ga! Ga! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" A strong and sturdy horse galloped over from behind Zhang Cui Lan, its sharp eyes was just about to run into Zhang Cui Lan, causing everyone to shout in shock, not daring to watch the bloody tragedy that was about to happen.


    Zhang Cui Lan''s mind was blank, in that moment of life and death, she quickly looked at Xi Jiu Er, his face was so cold that it could freeze. ~ This is risking my life, Zhang Cui Lan was terrified, her small face was pale white, instinctively she dodged to the side.


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" The horse galloped over Zhang Cui Lan''s head and all of them broke out in a cold sweat from fright. Zhang Cui Lan still felt that she had narrowly escaped death once. Startled, he raised her head and was once again scared out of her wits. The horse of the carriage was only one step away from him.

 C258

    "Miss, are you alright?" A man''s gentle voice came from above his head. Zhang Cui Lan raised his head and almost vomited. Emma, this is the Second Young Master Cao? It wouldn''t be too much to call him a pig head, but he wasn''t even taller than her. He was dark and ugly, with a big fat head and a lewd smile on his face? Perhaps it was a gentle smile, but it was out of place on this face.


    Even with a luxurious robe and expensive jade pendant, it couldn''t conceal the fact that he was a pig. Zhang Cui Lan''s expression was one of panic to begin with, so her expression of astonishment did not let the other party discover anything.


    Zhang Cui Lan gritted her teeth as she wondered whether the eldest young master and second young master were her own sons. Zhang Cui Lan looked at the pitch black boar leg and forced out a smile: "I''m fine." She stood up and faced Xi Jiu Er''s figure. Only now did she realize her purpose for leaving.


    Even if Second Young Master Cao was a pig, she would still have to endure it. Zhang Cui Lan bowed properly in accordance to Xi Jiu Er''s warning, neither hesitating nor pretending to be serious. Second Young Master Cao squinted his eyes. He thought it would be another girl throwing himself into his arms. He didn''t think that he would ignore him.


    "Many thanks, Young Master. This little girl will be taking her leave." Then, she gracefully left. Second Young Master Cao took a whiff of the fragrance left behind by the beauty, and instructed a servant at the side: "Send someone to follow her."


    "Yes."


    Xi Jiu Er glanced at the servant who had followed them from far away and said indifferently, "Cui Lan, you have done well. You have to remember, the more a man can''t get a woman, the more the desire to hunt, easy to get, how can he cherish it? Reject and welcome ¡­ Even a girl with no peerless beauty would be able to strangle a man''s heart. "


    Zhang Cui Lan nodded: "Brother is right, Cui Lan knows."


    "Prime Minister''s Estate is the world of women. Once you''ve passed it, you must take care of yourself." Xi Jiu Er said: "There are some things that I will pass to you, to make Second Young Master unable to stop himself from thinking about you."


    "Ugh ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan thought about how he looked like and how hshealso thought about how he was with her ¡­ She couldn''t help but shiver, and he nearly bit the crap out of it. Ye Zichen rubbed her mouth. In the future, this man would give him honor and disgrace. Even if he was a dead man, he had to treat him as the most beautiful man in the world.


    Three days later, Cao Nan invited Xi Jiu Er to a banquet, followed by a young lady who was at the prime of her youth.


    "Today, I went out with Sister-in-law and coincidentally met all of you, so I had her come over to pay her respects." Xi Jiu Er stood on top of a mountain, her face pale white, giving off an aura that seemed to be able to transcend the mortal world. Cao Nan felt that Song Tian had been reborn, and not only that, she felt even colder.


    "Greetings Young Master Cao ¡­ "This ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan pretended not to know the identity of the person behind Cao Nan, but the fat eared youth laughed: "Miss, we meet again, I am Cao Qing."


    "So it''s Second Young Master Cao. Greetings, Second Young Master Cao." After Zhang Cui Lan bowed, she stood obediently by Xi Jiu Er''s side, looking straight ahead. She really didn''t want to see the heaven and earth difference between the two young masters in front of her. Second Young Master Cao was originally a few years younger than her brother, but now she looked a few years older ¡­ The comparison was appalling.


    Cao Qing''s green eyes turned, he had an idea, and said that he was not feeling well, so he went to the latrine. With that, he made a face at Zhang Cui Lan, causing Zhang Cui Lan''s heart to sink even deeper, and his face become expressionless.


    Zhang Cui Lan left, and Xi Jiu Er followed Cao Nan to the capital for a meal in the best restaurant. She thought that since he was pregnant, she wouldn''t be able to touch a single drop of wine. Cao Nan laughed: "Why is Brother Song Tian acting so weird like a woman, it''s only a single cup of wine, what''s the point of pushing her down?"


    "I really can''t drink it. I''m sick ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was still beaming all over, just like how WindWithoutTrace finally cracked with a ''kacha'' when she saw a certain someone. The one who came up to the second floor was an extremely beautiful man dressed in a red robe. He looked directly at them, and his ice-cold eyes burned even hotter? No, anger.


    Xi Jiu Er turned and said indifferently, "His Highness the Fourth Prince is here."


    Cao Nan turned around. Wasn''t it the beautiful Fourth Prince? He immediately stood up and was about to bow, but Feng Qing Cheng stopped him, "There''s no need to be so courteous, sit." With a tilt of his butt, he lifted his robes and sat beside Xi Jiu Er, his expression not changing at all.


    You clearly have a seat, yet you refuse to sit? Just as Xi Jiu Er was thinking about how to move forward without leaving a trace, her hand was grabbed tightly by a large hand, and even her bones were about to shatter. She maintained a calm expression as she slowly turned her head and stared at Feng Qing Cheng''s body without smiling, "Fourth Prince, you must have eaten a lot this morning."


    "Of course, of course. I''ve been working so hard on official matters, how can I possibly eat anything?" Feng Qing Cheng''s smile did not change as she held his hands for a few more minutes before letting go. Xi Jiu Er rubbed his hands under the table while biting onto a piece of meat. Only then did she calm down, as she had already scolded this hypocritical man a few times in her heart.


    "What are you guys talking about? Why are you so happy?" Feng Qing Cheng asked with a smile on his face. His smile was truly magnificent, causing all the girls upstairs to be captivated by it.


    "It''s nothing, it''s just that he refused to drink a cup of wine from Brother Song Tian." Cao Nan laughed: "This Brother Song Tian was a straightforward person in the past, it could be said that he is someone who goes without saying after a thousand cups. Who would have thought that after travelling for three years, he would become a girl''s home."


    "It is merely a cup of wine ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng picked up the cup in front of Xi Jiu Er and finished it in one gulp. Only after being stunned for a while did Cao Nan react, and barely laughed: "Hehe, your highness is right. It''s only a cup of wine."


    "Why hasn''t Second Young Master Cao come yet?" Xi Jiu Er looked towards the door, pretending not to know, and thought about how she would dodge later.


    "Dong Dong Dong ¡­" A pageboy ran over to Cao Nan and whispered a few words into his ear. Cao Nan''s expression slightly changed, then he immediately stood up and bid farewell. Xi Jiu Er immediately stood up and said: "I''ll go with you." She didn''t want to be alone with Feng Qing Cheng.


    "I''m going to visit the Master Song later. Young Master Song, come with me." Feng Qing Cheng''s gentle words immediately made Cao Nan turn around and leave. She angrily sat down on her butt and remained silent. Now that she was still in Feng Qing Cheng''s hands, she couldn''t lose her identity!


    "Waiter, give me a nice room."


    Ji Qing grudgingly followed Feng Qing Cheng into the private room. Before she could regain her senses, her lips were sealed, but this elegant man immediately turned into a dog and bit her lips. A wave of fear rose in his heart. Perhaps it was because girls were born weak in front of strong men.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, you, let me go ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was shocked, was Feng Qing Cheng insane? He had actually untied her belt? She wanted to push Feng Qing Cheng away with all her might, but the person in front of her was like an iron tower, not moving an inch.


    "You actually dare to bear the child of another man ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng''s expression was even more terrifying. She was afraid that he would do something that would harm the child in the next moment. She shook her head in panic and said, "I did not ¡­ "I did not ¡­"

 C259

    "No?" He roared out with fury and jealousy, the palm on his lower abdomen seemed to be able to feel his body trembling through the robe, raising his head to look into the eyes filled with fear, Feng Qing Cheng''s big hands tightened: "How can I allow you to have other people''s blood in you?"


    "What are you going to do?" Xi Jiu Er had a bad premonition, she was unable to move her body due to some unknown method, she was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, not knowing if she should tell him the truth.


    "What for? "Of course it''s to get rid of the child in my womb ¡­" How could Feng Qing Cheng''s face be seen through in the shadows? He had pale skin, fierce eyes, and a cruel smile. It was as if an evil spirit had descended upon him. However, his movements were extremely gentle, and the words he spit out were as ordinary as the words spoken between a couple, "Jiu Er, I''ll first use my palm to shatter him, then eat a set of medicine. My medical skills have received the true legacy of Sun Kong Ming, it won''t cause the slightest amount of pain, nor will it cause your body to be injured in the slightest."


    "Feng Qing Cheng, if you do this, I will hate you for the rest of your life!" Feng Qing Cheng''s entire body was trembling from fear. Staring at the man in human skin, he suddenly felt a wave of disgust.


    "Hahaha, Xi Jiu Er, oh Xi Jiu Er, it can''t be, you won''t hate me for the rest of my life ¡­ Because I have a lot of ways to make you forget about hatred, like what if I were the father of the child? What if you lose your memory? What if you take medicine and only love me? " Feng Qing Cheng reached out his hand to take off Xi Jiu Er''s human skin mask, it was better to speak like this.


    Taking off the human skin mask, Xi Jiu Er had extremely beautiful facial features. Staring at the mist, she said word by word with pursed lips: "Feng Qing Cheng, I was really blind back then that I thought you were a gentle and elegant man." She had always fought with women and had already learned how to scheme and scheme against them. Unfortunately, toying with a man was not an upper-class method. Furthermore, Feng Qing Cheng was a prince, so he couldn''t figure out what was going on ¡­


    "Jiu Er, I always wanted to act the part of a gentle and refined man for you, but unfortunately, you crossed the line. I, Feng Qing Cheng''s woman, do not even think of touching her, much less touching her." The more she said it, the angrier she got. Thinking about how she looked when she was born to another man was like a thorn stabbing into his heart. It was so painful that he lost his breath.


    "Speak, who is that man? I''ll kill him immediately? After we kill this child, we''ll pretend like nothing happened and return to the past. " This was because the savage expression on his face had changed completely, as if he was no different from a madman. At this moment, Xi Jiu Er suspected that he was a madman, an actual madman.


    "Can we calm down and talk?" In order to prevent him from going crazy and continue hurting the child in his stomach, Xi Jiu Er gently coaxing her with an unprecedented gentleness. Unfortunately, the more she showed her gentleness, the angrier Feng Qing Cheng became.


    "Hur Hur Hur Hur." Xi Jiu Er screamed out, "If you make a move, I''ll immediately die for you to see."


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed disdainfully: "You think I will believe you?"


    The other party''s confidence was like a sharp knife that was stuck in Xi Jiu Er''s throat. Yes, she would not commit suicide, at least not now. It was only at this moment that she understood, Feng Qing Cheng seemed to be able to see through her everything.


    Taking a deep breath, Xi Jiu Er spat out a few words: "If I say that this child is yours, would you believe me?"


    Feng Qing Cheng''s brows twitched: "You can even make up such an excuse? Do you take me for a fool? " Xi Jiu Er was extremely frightened, she blurted out, "I swear, if I lie to you, I will die a horrible death, and from now on, I will fall into hell with my nose in the sky."


    Instantly, Feng Qing Cheng stopped all his movements, and raised his head with a look of disbelief: "Child, is it really mine?"


    "Yes, we had this child the first time. He is only three to four months old now, but I don''t know why ¡­" Maybe this child gave birth to a monster every three years. " Xi Jiu Er smiled as she hid the other secret.


    Feng Qing Cheng suddenly remembered that Liu Xiang had asked him a few things before. At that time, he had his suspicions but never thought of it like this, but no one would have thought that it would be him. Counting the age of the child, it had already been a year or so. Perhaps a demon would really be born after having been pregnant for three years.


    "I heard that Fourth Brother is here. Where is he?" A clear and sonorous voice rang out with laughter. From the sound of the voice, it seemed to be referring to the Fifth Prince without a doubt. Before Feng Qing Cheng had enough time to think about it, he immediately put on the human skin mask and tidied up his slightly disorderly robes before hastily pulling back his hands and abruptly opening the door.


    He was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and his clothes were luxurious and extraordinary. Although he looked handsome, his eyes were fierce and vicious. One could tell with a glance that he was a bloody, cruel, and difficult to get along with. The pair of eyes swept across Feng Qing Cheng like a hungry wolf before looking at the youth, and his eyebrows rose: "Hey, isn''t this the Song Family''s little Young Master?"


    "This commoner pays his respects to the Fifth Prince." Xi Jiu Er bowed. She had asked about Song Tian''s past and knew that Song Tian and the Fifth Prince were rather close. The two of them seemed to share similar intentions, and the Fifth Prince had even treated him as a brother. Now that he had seen the Fifth Prince again, other than respect, Xi Jiu Er only respect him.


    "I heard you were back a while ago and didn''t have the time to meet you. I''ll find you for tea tomorrow and go to the Fragrance Pavilion to get to know the new girl." Fifth Prince''s long and narrow eagle-like smile did not reach, and he looked at Feng Qing Cheng with a smile: "Fourth Brother."


    "Fifth brother." Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently: "I have something to do, I''ll be leaving first."


    "Sigh, Fourth Brother is too disrespectful. How did you leave when I just arrived?" Come down and we''ll have tea together. " The Fifth Prince sat down with a smile on his face and crossed his legs as if he was a dissolute young master. It was no longer a secret that the fourth and fifth princes had had their faces ripped off because of the battle for the throne. It was said that the fourth prince seemed to have no interest in the throne, so of course ¡ª


    "Drink it if you want." Feng Qing Cheng left with an unfriendly tone. As he left, he gave Xi Jiu Er a deep look, as if she had some profound meaning.


    The Fifth Prince had been watching the interaction between the two of them the entire time and a light flashed in his eyes. When Feng Qing Cheng left, he immediately stood up and put his arm around Xi Jiu Er''s shoulders as he asked: "Little brother, why did my Fourth Brother look for you for?" Was it his imagination? Why did it feel like Song Tian was a little shorter?


    The meaning behind Feng Qing Cheng''s departure was something else in the eyes of the Fifth Prince, but he never expected that the message he would pass on to Xi Jiu Er would actually be Xi Wan Feng! When he left earlier, he had personally said the three words'' Xi Wan Feng ''. This meant that the Fifth Prince was related to Xi Wan Feng.

 C260

    "The Fifth Prince didn''t say anything. He was only introducing me to a position and position ¡­" Using the chance, Xi Jiu Er picked up the teacup on the table and sat by the side, far away from the Fifth Prince.


    The Fifth Prince squinted his eyes. Just now, Cao Nan had told him that Feng Qing Cheng was with Song Tian. This Song Tian was the treasure of the Madame Song, he had almost reached the point where he could control his wife tightly. Taking Song Tian down would be equivalent to taking Song Yun Shan down.


    He had already planned out this move three years ago, but something unexpected happened when he was just a step away. He never would have thought that Feng Qing Cheng''s sudden return would cause his plans to collapse at the speed of lightning, making him extremely terrifying, making him hard to guard against. If he succeeded in winning Song Yun Shan over, it could be said that he was adding wings to a tiger.


    Look, as soon as Song Tian returned, he grabbed the chance to come over ¡­


    "Song Tian, look at how long we have known each other, I have always treated you as my brother, and now that our brother is in trouble, you can''t just abandon him right?" The Fifth Prince came over and said with a sincere expression, "Now that you''re back, and it''s precisely the time that I need you, I hope that you can help brother. When I sit in that position in the future, I won''t have a problem being dukedom."


    At that moment, Xi Jiu Er saw sincerity in the Fifth Prince''s eyes. If not for the vicious flash in his eyes that almost made people unable to catch him, she would really believe him. Xi Jiu Er did not like strangers getting close to him, especially men! She turned her body slightly to the side and sighed. "Fifth Prince, it''s not that I don''t want to help you, it''s just that ¡­"


    "What is it?" The Fifth Prince''s maintaining of his sincerity was stiff for a moment. "If you have something to say, then say it. Why are you and I being so courteous?"


    "My father did not participate in the battle between the parties, so I am unable to help you ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was in a difficult situation, and under the shadow, he could not see her expression. The Fifth Prince could only see her skin under the light, and thought to himself: Weird, his skin is actually even softer than a girl''s, I wonder how it feels when you touch it.


    Yan Niang was his advisor, so the taste of the Fifth Prince towards girls was not any less than that of the Prime Minister Cao. Her body was much better, but she was also an expert in the area of men. In the blink of an eye, three years had passed. Who would have thought that not only would Song Tian''s temperament have a drastic change, her entire body was indescribably delicate and pretty, with a hint of weakness?


    The Fifth Prince suddenly cut off his thoughts. Probably, Xi Jiu Er also didn''t know that her makeup could at most be considered dignified and graceful, but that of the man''s was stunning. When she saw the Fifth Prince staring at her with an abnormal expression, she looked at her with a confused gaze. In an instant, her delicate face flashed. "Fifth Prince, what''s wrong?"


    "Cough ¡­" "Nothing." The Fifth Prince covered up his cough and then started on the topic: "We are young, the older generation''s views are different from us, you only need to do what you want, Master Song has also been young before right? He will understand your choice. "


    "Fifth Prince is right, but I don''t want to anger my father. I''ve already understood that it''s not easy for my father''s mother after traveling for three years. Serving the two elders makes them happy is what I want to do. If Father does not object, I will do my best to support the Fifth Prince, and I will not hesitate to risk my life. " Xi Jiu Er''s face turned serious, she stood up and bowed to bid her farewell, "This humble one still has matters to attend to, goodbye."


    The Fifth Prince''s face didn''t need to be seen. Just a moment ago, he was still calling his brother as long as a horse''s face, trying his best to conceal the killing intent and anger in his eyes. He covered his eyes and said, "Since that''s the case, you can go back."


    Down the stairs, Xi Jiu Er left with her hands behind her back ¡­


    Fifth Prince drank a mouthful of wine and asked, "That trash is looking at Song Tian''s Sister-in-law?"


    "Yes, looking at Song Tian''s actions, I''m afraid he had already planned for this to happen, and married her Sister-in-law into the Cao Mansion." Cao Nan also drank his wine and waited for the Fifth Prince to make his decision. Right now, the Prime Minister Cao was already moving towards the Fifth Prince. The moment he thought about the hatred in Cao Qing''s heart, it immediately rushed over, and he wished that he could immediately kill him to vent it.


    The Fifth Prince''s expression changed, he guessed: "I''m afraid that the Song Family is doing this to help Fourth Brother, they all know that Prime Minister Cao''s most beloved son is him, and it is much easier to get rid of that trash, Cao Qing, than to get rid of his father."


    Darling son? Cao Nan scoffed, "Madame Song and the Fourth Prince''s wife''s mother are close friends with handkerchief ¡­ Fifth Prince, do you think the other party knows that we''ve already joined hands? "


    "Who knows? Fourth Bro is unfathomably deep, and no one knows what he went through outside. I couldn''t find out too much about his past, and only knew that he married a woman called Xi Jiu Er. The Fifth Prince frowned, thinking about the next move, he hoped that Feng Qing Cheng would not disappoint him, if not, he would have to take many detours. The one that gave her the most headache was Song Tian!


    "Song Tian is not as strong as before, he has always been close to him, and since he wants to marry people into the Cao family, he naturally understands your status in the family. "You must do your best to rope him in ¡­" The Ghost God in the Fifth Prince''s mind guessed that if his skin was as smooth as jade, what would be the sensation?


    "Fifth Prince, if it doesn''t work, then why don''t we use a beauty trap?" Cao Nan suggested: "Song Tian is already at the age of a Engagement, so we should make our move on some of the chess pieces.


    "Who can move?" was stubborn, there was always a way for him to nod his head and agree to it.


    "Northwest Feng Family." Cao Nan spat out these four words, causing the Fifth Prince''s body to move. The Northwest Feng Family was the most loyal and loyal to the Fifth Prince. There were two reasons: The Feng Family was related to the Fifth Prince by blood, and the current mother of the Feng Family was the Sixth Aunt of the Fifth Prince. Secondly, the Feng Family''s Pearl Young Master was now a living corpse. If it wasn''t for the Fifth Prince''s gender, the grass on the grave would probably have grown to such a height by now.


    In the Feng Family. When the Fifth Prince thought of the Feng Family''s living dead Young Master, he felt a bit unnatural. Thinking back, the Feng Family was indeed a good candidate. He then said, "Sure, I will speak of this in person in the past." Since the Madame Feng had brought her daughter to the capital to meet his mother, he would naturally settle this matter for him if she brought it up with the mother.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly walked back to her residence. Zhang Cui Lan had already arrived, and only after asking the servant did she find out that the Second Young Master Cao was extremely frivolous, pulling on Zhang Cui Lan''s hand in front of everyone. Many people were pointing fingers...


    "Letting your Miss endure it is just a small loss." Xi Jiu Er felt that today''s matter was not ordinary, and only after taking a long journey did she manage to see through a few of them.

 C261

    It was still the dead of night. Teng Qingshan was lying on the bed, reading a book. He seemed to be absent-minded as he stared at the candle flame beside him. Suddenly ¡ª The candlelight flashed and a smear of red appeared out of nowhere in the room.


    "Is Cao Nan a member of the Fifth Prince?" Xi Jiu Er asked about his own speculation, and then analyzed the current political situation. A cold breath came from her side, and then her body fell into a cold embrace. She took a glance at it and said, "You are very cold."


    Feng Qing Cheng''s smile was warm, as though he had returned back to that gentle and refined person who did not have the slightest bit of temper, "Then help me warm it up." When he felt the warmth of her delicate body, only then did he slowly say: "Cao Nan had long ago become part of the Fifth Prince''s men. The Fifth Prince gifted Xi Wan Feng to the Prime Minister Cao, and now the Prime Minister Cao stands on the Fifth Prince''s side."


    "Today, the Fifth Prince tried to rope me in and I rejected him. Judging from his expression, he probably has other tricks up his sleeve." Xi Jiu Er revealed a calm smile, and a calculating look flashed past her eyes: "This time, inserting Zhang Cui Lan inside will be effortless."


    "That Zhang Cui Lan of yours is not good enough. If you want to deal with Xi Wan Feng, I''m afraid that if you fail to do anything to him, the other party would have already wiped everything clean." Feng Qing Cheng took her breath, and touched the pure white veins of her wrist. Xi Jiu Er pretended not to know, and continued to laugh coldly: "Who said I wanted her to deal with Xi Wan Feng? Zhang Cui Lan wasted a great year for Song Tian, so finding a marriage for her is my duty. "


    "Oh? Is that so? " Feng Qing Cheng laughed. His pulse was normal, his children were the same.


    "Don''t be a petty man." Xi Jiu Er withdrew her hand and looked at the book again: "I''ll give you a person, there''s a grudge between you and Xi Wan Feng. Teach me a lesson, maybe you''ll be of great use in the future." She was talking about Hua Lu.


    "Xi Wan Feng can''t be underestimated, after learning a set of Charm Spell from Yan Niang, not to mention, he can even use poison." Feng Qing Cheng shot a glance at the book in Xi Jiu Er''s hands. It was actually a wild history of romance, causing his lower abdomen to immediately feel hot, and his lips began to move unbridled.


    "Yan Niang?" Xi Jiu Er felt that the name was extremely familiar, when she thought about who it was, she slowly revealed a big smile, it was so beautiful that it was hard to look at that delicate and pretty face. Although many women didn''t have a beautiful face that could topple empires, they had a breathtaking beauty that could make people''s hearts tremble with every smile and smile.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, Xi Wan Feng and I are enemies that will not rest until we die, this has never changed, even fate is moving in this direction." As if he was a little hoarse, because of the strange way he said it, Xi Jiu Er thought back to that night when he taught her the appearance changing technique. He told her another secret: how to break the bewitchment technique. Why did he have to tell Xi Jiu Er? Not only did girls know how to seduce people, men knew how to do it too. Even Xi Jiu Er who was extremely intelligent was an unmarried woman.


    Xi Wan Feng, did you see that? The heavens are always helping me ¡­ With a plan already forming in his mind, he turned around and looked at Feng Qing Cheng. Feng Qing Cheng chuckled: "You can leave your heart at my side, and if you want to take revenge, you can also help me. I have to thank Madame."


    Madame? Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly, "You sure played a big game of chess. Yan Er is one of yours, right? "Why would you do that?" She was fixated on Feng Qing Cheng. If Feng Qing Cheng were to tell him everything, she would tell him everything ¡­


    "Yan Er was arranged by me, I have always been fond of you. Upon learning of your residence, I will arrange for her to enter, and report your whereabouts." Feng Qing Cheng tightly embraced the delicate body in her embrace, and while smelling the fragrance that was emitting from her hair, she said hatefully: "When I found out that you and Prince Xian were extremely close, I sent someone to assassinate him. Heh, this brat''s life was forcefully dodged by him time and time again."


    "I''m tired. Leave."


    "Jiu Er, what''s wrong?" Feng Qing Cheng could clearly feel that Xi Jiu Er''s tone was off, she raised her chin and looked, but there was nothing wrong, she seemed to be tired. He put her down and said, "Go to sleep. I will come back tomorrow night."


    "There''s no need to come over. It would not be good if people were to discover something." Xi Jiu Er forced out a smile, and her vision gradually blurred. The shadow said, "Okay," and then her forehead was covered in a wet kiss... The room was quiet again ¡­


    A touch of her cheeks. Heh, I''m actually crying? But was it because of Feng Qing Cheng''s lie? There was no need for him to lie to himself. Why would he feel sad and cry?


    was her first man, many women had unforgettable feelings for their first man. Even if they couldn''t become husband and wife in the future, they would still yearn for him. Naturally, it was impossible for her not to ¡­


    While holding back the pain in his heart, Xi Jiu Er thought of a plan in his mind. He hoped that he could take Xi Wan Feng''s life as soon as possible ¡­ Then... He lived a simple life in seclusion with his children. Hmm, let''s just think of it like this ¡­ Feng Qing Cheng laughed at himself for being honest with him. How much did he like her and how much she had done to him?


    His mind was in a state of chaos as he fell into a deep slumber. When he woke up on the second day with a splitting headache and feeling like it was about to explode, Ge La gave her a robe to wear while saying worriedly, "Little Young Master, you don''t look too good. When Madame says that an important guest is coming to our house, he wants you to step out. little Young Master... "


    "Ge La, let me hug you for a while ¡­ "Just for a moment ¡­" She was so upset last night that she actually forgot about such an important matter. She deserved to die.


    If he hadn''t known about Xi Jiu Er''s true identity, he would have thought that liked him. Ge La could clearly feel the sorrow and sadness in carrying this person of her. He thought about how he had once imagined that there would be someone who would give him a hug and courage in her life. Therefore, Ge La also hugged Feng Qing Cheng and softly continued, "No matter what happens, we must always move forward ¡­ No one will be sad all day and all night. "


    "Your words of consolation are rather interesting." Xi Jiu Er laughed, the pain in her eyes was unbearable. Ge La immediately found a cooked egg and gave it to her.


    "Who are the distinguished guests that have come today?" He hadn''t slept well last night, so he was already drowsy from the practice of closing his eyes quietly at this time. Smelling the smell of Ge La''s soap, the smell of the censer in the house, the chirping of the birds outside ¡­ Sleep was already upon him.


    "It''s the Feng Family." Ge La changed the egg and continued to apply.


    "Feng Family? Tell me about it? "


    "The main mother of the Feng Family, Madame Feng, is the fifth prince''s aunt ¡­" Ge La described the Feng Family''s recent situation and also mentioned the relationship between the Feng Family and the Fifth Prince. The more Xi Jiu Er thought about it, the more nimble she became. As expected, she heard Gras say, "Madame Feng''s precious daughter will also come over.


    He asked: "How''s Miss Feng''s temper?"


    "I heard that her temper is spoiled. She''s already 18, but she''s still unmarried ¡­" She heard that they had talked about a marriage and then left. This matter has already spread far and wide in the Northwest. It''s not a secret. " Just as Ge La finished speaking, the Madame Song sent someone to ask Xi Jiu Er to go over.

 C262

    Madame Feng''s appearance was not good, but her facial features were very impressive. With every frown, every smile, and every gesture, sshe would have the demeanor of an unspeakable lady, with the cultivation of a noble family. Looking at the girl called Feng Ru Jun, she had a valiant and domineering attitude. When Xi Jiu Er arrived, he looked her up and down, looking unsatisfied.


    It would be better if you were not satisfied! Xi Jiu Er paid respects to everyone. Madame Song saw that his face was pale white with a light green color, and her expression was listless and listless. She asked worriedly: "Tian''er, what happened to you? But you''re not feeling well? "


    The Madame Feng took the chance to drink tea to hide her disdain, and asked, wasn''t this expression caused by excessive indulgence? Nothing had come of it. If she had to marry her precious daughter to a carefree hedonistic young master, she really wouldn''t be willing to do it. Biting her lips, Madame Feng put down the teacup and smiled: "Young people should be careful of their bodies, in case you run out of energy and your body becomes empty."


    Other than Feng Ru Jun, who did not understand the meaning behind Madame Feng''s words, the two of them knew that Madame Song did not have much of a relationship, and being a guest today was just a formality. She was so infuriated with her beloved son, and was just about to retort with her mouth shut by Xi Jiu Er, "Madame Feng is right, I was just engrossed in my book and went to sleep late, but Madame''s complexion is green, and your face is dark, I''m afraid there''s a blood disaster."


    "You, what did you say?" Feng Ru Jun immediately stood out and shouted, her eyes staring fiercely, without a doubt, her angry expression was truly beautiful.


    "Why is Miss Feng so angry? I was just saying that. " Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "Does anyone believe you can''t be trusted?"


    Madame Feng laughed coldly, "So it turns out that Young Master Song also knows how to judge appearances, and doesn''t follow the rumors." Rumor? What rumor? It only meant that Song Tian was lazy to eat, did not learn anything, and so on.


    Xi Jiu Er sarcastically replied: "Seeing Miss Feng being so na?ve today is not consistent with the rumors either." became even more anxious and angry as she pointed at Xi Jiu Er and scolded him: "Song Tian, what nonsense are you spouting? Let''s see if I won''t rip your mouth off today."


    Oh, now it revealed the true nature of Great Miss Feng, although Xi Jiu Er did not say anything, she only scoffed, which sounded extra piercing to Feng Ru Jun''s ears, if it was not for Madame Feng pulling her, she would probably come over to have a fight.


    "You are like a king, don''t try to be impudent." Madame Feng bellowed, she was extremely disgusted with Xi Jiu Er, if such a person became his own son-in-law, he would still have a mother-in-law in his eyes? However, both sides had already said that the marriage must be completed. This would save the Fifth Prince a lot of trouble, and with the support of the Song Family, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.


    Although Song Tian was not a good person, the Song Family''s status was high and their power was not weak either ¡­ The Feng Family also had great benefits. The bitterness in Madame Feng''s mouth spread, because her son had become a living dead man and life in the Feng Residence was not easy. If her elder sister was the empress of the Imperial Palace and her nephew was a prince, his days would not even be comparable to a concubinage.


    The Feng Family still had a few concubines that gave birth to Young Master. In the future, they would depend on them to support the Feng Family ¡­ Therefore, although it was important to win over the Fifth Prince, he wasn''t too concerned about those bastard sons of his, and they didn''t receive much care for him. But if Song Tian became a member of the Feng Family, he would be even more hardworking than the Fifth Prince.


    Madame Feng brought a myriad of unwillingness to come to the Feng Family, wanting to promote this matter, but unfortunately, when she saw Song Tian''s face, not only did she not speak of seniors, she also spoke nonsense. The more she thought about it, the more bitter Madame Feng became, and the smile on his face froze, "Young Master Song, don''t blame me.


    Madame Feng had a face full of unwillingness just now, but now she was trying her best to endure. It seemed like she was determined to get the Feng Family to marry him. The more it was like this, the happier Xi Jiu Er became, and laughed along. "Madame Feng, please do not take offense to this, I am just straightforward, do not mind."


    "Why would I mind?" The Madame Feng smiled as if she did not take it to heart, the only thing she cared about was the twitch of the corner of her mouth.


    The Madame Song then spoke out: "Alright, you brat, you really can''t hide anything from me. It''s fortunate that I didn''t bother with you." She looked at Xi Jiu Er with a face full of weariness: "Didn''t you not sleep well last night? Go back to sleep, and apply more pressure to your eyes. Don''t let your eyes get sick. "


    "Yes." After bowing to everyone, he slowly strolled away. Feeling a burning sensation that seemed to want to ignite a hole in him, Xi Jiu Er smiled and wordlessly went into Zhang Cui Lan''s courtyard.


    "Big brother ¡­" What do we do now? " If he wanted to marry to the Second Young Master Cao, what should he do next? If the Second Young Master Cao did not come, she would not go. Anxious, she wandered around the room.


    Xi Jiu Er leisurely said: "What are you anxious for? It''s you who doesn''t want to run, right now, there''s something I need you to do."


    Looking at Xi Jiu Er''s calm and collected expression, she gradually calmed down. "What does Big Brother have to tell me to do?"


    Xi Jiu Er waved her hands and ordered the group of people to leave Ge La alone at her side to wait upon him. Incense filled the room, and the sound of crackling explosions came from the brazier. Xi Jiu Er''s thin long robe outlined her delicate body, and the wind from outside the window caressed her hair.


    "I think you already know why Feng Ru Jun came to the Song Family. I think this Feng Ru Jun is too much of an eyesore, help me take care of her." Just as Xi Jiu Er wanted to pour him a cup of tea, Ge La immediately stepped forward and poured some tea.


    "How does Big Brother want to teach her a lesson?" Zhang Cui Lan.


    "Body, defeat, fame, break!"


    The four words were like a thunderclap that exploded. Zhang Cui Lan stared at Xi Jiu Er in shock. [There can only be one kind of disgrace for a girl, her body is dirty, and her reputation is in ruins ¡­] Even if she knew that Feng Ru Jun was being arrogant and despotic, he shouldn''t be punishing her like this. Moreover, Feng Ru Jun''s identity was extraordinary. The consequences would be unthinkable if he was found out.


    Zhang Cui Lan took a deep breath, and couldn''t even smile: "Big brother, Miss Feng''s status is extraordinary, I''m afraid it''s impossible to achieve perfection. Why do you treat Miss Feng like this?"


    Feng Qing Cheng was right, it was not enough to let Zhang Cui Lan deal with him, at least for now. However ¡­ Who was born with this knowledge?


    "As long as you want to kill a person, once you''re serious, you need to have meticulous thoughts and preparation for a foolproof plan. Although Miss Feng doesn''t have much hatred towards me, she has affected my interests ¡­ Zhang Cui Lan, Prime Minister''s Estate is a world of women, if I were to ask you about your conflict of interest with a certain woman, would you show any mercy? " Xi Jiu Er sneered: "If you want to be rich, the later generations will definitely suffer, make up your mind."

 C263

    These words had a deep impact on Zhang Cui Lan as she bit her lips and made her decision, "Alright."


    "Then I''ll wait for Jia Yin." Xi Jiu Er got up and laughed: "Remember, leave a path for yourself, do not let anyone get wind of this, if they need me, tell me."


    "What if the Feng Family catches me?" This was what Zhang Cui Lan was truly worried about, that Song Tian could stay out of this, but she could not! What came back to her was Xi Jiu Er''s departing figure.


    If Zhang Cui Lan completely failed this time, it would be fine if she did not use this chess piece. As soon as Xi Jiu Er left, she went to ''bump into'' Feng Ru Jun. Even if there was someone who suspected her, without evidence, it was just a guess. After all, Zhang Cui Lan had the identity of a Sister-in-law.


    The Feng Family members needed to rest in Song Mansion for a few days, and the Madame Song happily agreed. She knew the purpose of the Feng family''s visit, but how could she not understand her son''s aggressive attitude? Since it couldn''t be done, he didn''t mind letting them stay for a few days.


    In the Eastern Courtyard guest room, Feng Ru Jun said angrily: "Look at how virtuous and virtuous he is, how can he be worthy of a woman? Your daughter doesn''t agree to marry such a person... mother, think of a way. "


    When they came to the Madame Feng, she had already told his daughter about the importance of this marriage. The Feng Family was not the same as it used to be today. Although she was a noble matriarch, what could she rely on in the future without her son?


    "Ru Jun, if we get married in the future, wouldn''t we need a woman to train them? "Plus, it''s already not bad that you can make it to the Song Family. Do you want to get married in the northwest?" Madame Feng sighed as she consoled the woman. How could she not know that she had wronged the woman?


    "What are you afraid of? Don''t we still have the Fifth Prince?" Was there still the Empress within the palace? "I''ll get married eventually." Feng Ru Jun curled her lips in disinterest. In short, she did not want to marry that brat.


    "They?" Madame Feng sneered: "Even if they arranged a marriage for you, that man still might not have seen it that good. "He just married you for the benefit of his name."


    "Anyway, I''m not going to marry." Feng Ru Jun pursed her lips with a face full of unease.


    "Alright, don''t be willful. You have been willful for more than ten years. This time, it''s not up to you." The Fifth Prince has agreed, so has that person in the palace, and your father has also agreed. Madame Feng finally exhausted all of her patience and impatiently waved her hand: "I''m tired to sleep for a while, this is not the Feng Family, so you are not allowed to be impudent."


    "mother ¡­" Feng Ru Jun shouted.


    The Madame Feng ignored the servant who was holding onto her, angry to the point that Feng Ru Jun wanted to throw something again. The servant immediately stopped her: "Miss, this is the Xi Mansion."


    "So what if you''re a Xi Mansion?" Although he said that, Feng Ru Jun still put down the teacup with a helpless look on his face. He sized up the room from head to toe, the arrangement was not bad, the things he visited were not ordinary.


    "Let''s go out for a walk." Teng Qingshan stood up. Feng Ru Jun just wanted to go out and take a breath of fresh air to take a stroll in Xi Mansion. However, the servant girl stuttered: "Miss, are you tired? Do you want to rest for a bit?"


    "What are you resting for? Let''s go!" Feng Ru Jun snorted coldly, and the servant behind her had a sullen face. This was the Song Mansion, she was afraid that the Miss would lose his temper at any moment. After all, he could not bring shame from the Northwest to the Yan Du.


    The Xi Mansion was relatively big, and the pavilions, pavilions, fake mountains, and water pavilions were all craftsmen. Feng Ru Jun looked around and seemed to really like the Song Mansion a little. Suddenly, a graceful and unique girl walked over. Feng Ru Jun raised his brows, everyone in Song Mansion knew that Zhang Cui Lan lived here, and the identity of being an adopted daughter was something that Feng Ru Jun knew.


    "Miss?" The servant saw that her Miss was not looking well, and immediately said: "Look, there are autumn chrysanthemums, and I heard from a servant that they were planted well, do you want to go and take a look?"


    Feng Ru Jun felt that Zhang Cui Lan was disgusted no matter how she looked at him. When a woman doesn''t like another woman, she never needs a reason.


    Zhang Cui Lan had originally wanted to get close to the other party and squeeze out her expression only to be yelled at like this. Feeling that something was wrong, she carefully stepped forward and asked: "Did Miss Feng call for me?"


    "You are Zhang Cui Lan?" Feng Ru Jun stared with his big eyes at Zhang Cui Lan and ridiculed: "Aren''t you being too shameless? I''ve seen shameless people, but I''ve never seen such a shameless person. "


    Heh, Zhang Cui Lan did not admit defeat and retorted, "Then may I ask what identity do you have to say those words? No matter what, this is a matter of the Song Mansion, you are at most an outsider, what right do you have to interfere? " Her heart felt a bit more at ease. Zhang Cui Lan laughed: "I had long heard that the northwest Feng Family is an aristocratic family, so the family''s teachings must be much stronger than us. Now that we''ve met today, tsk tsk tsk tsk ¡­"


    "Bitch, what did you say?" Feng Ru Jun screamed, the entire backyard could hear her high-pitched scream, "Watch me beat you to death." She raised her hand to give this sharp-tongued bitch a fierce slap, but she forgot that this wasn''t the northwest Feng Residence.


    Zhang Cui Lan took a step back. However, she didn''t expect that after being raised in the Northwest environment for so long, she had already become a woman with a strong physique.


    "Pa!"


    "Miss!"


    "Miss!"


    Zhang Cui Lan covered his face with her hands, and her cheeks burned with a stinging pain. She didn''t speak, and her ears rang, as she looked sideways at Feng Ru Jun''s proud face, and bit her lips: "Today I have truly witnessed the Feng Family''s teachings."


    "What happened?" Xi Jiu Er''s cold voice was like a warm breeze, everyone turned to look at Sheng Yuan, only to see a teenager dressed in green robes coldly looking over, his gaze was extremely oppressive, Feng Ru Jun was so afraid that his eyes were opened, calming down and he knew that he had caused trouble.


    The servant girl behind her was extremely anxious, she bowed to Xi Jiu Er and quickly explained to her Miss: "Nothing, wasn''t my Young Master Song resting just now? "Why did you get up?" He had looked like he had indulged in too much just a moment ago, but now, it was impossible to tell that he was a handsome and elegant person. maid blushed.


    "I don''t know where the sound of pig slaughtering came from, but it''s so loud that I''m almost deaf. I thought it was a pig raised by some family that ran out." Xi Jiu Er was very serious, causing all the servants in the house who were watching the show to laugh out loud.


    Feng Ru Jun jumped up and shouted, "What did you say? Say it again if you have the guts. " Even the maidservants behind her could not hold her back, she was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.


    "Feng Ru Jun, you have to be presumptuous and see what kind of place this is. This is not a place where you can behave atrociously as we, the Song Mansion, cannot hire people like you. Men, clean up Miss Feng''s things and send them away." Soo Soo suddenly let out a biting cold aura that made people not dare to act presumptuously.


    They were herding him away! Feng Ru Jun''s face was so red that it seemed as if blood would drip out. She was about to say something when the servant behind her tugged on her sleeve and shouted: "Let go."


    "Miss ¡­" The servant was already crying because of Feng Ru Jun.

 C264

    Clap * Feng Ru Jun turned and slapped the servant girl: "Scram, you damned girl. You don''t have the right to meddle in my work." The strong force knocked the servant down to the ground.


    "Do you think I want to come to the Song Family? I don''t even want to be carried here. Pui, he''s just a useless playboy, what''s the big deal? Losing the protection of the Song Family? " Feng Ru Jun scolded, she did not even look like a lady, she looked like a shrew in the market. I''m afraid that after today, the name of the Feng Family''s Miss will be known by every household.


    "Then let me ask Miss Feng, how good are you when I, Song Tian, have accomplished nothing? "Look at how you''re acting now. You don''t look like a lady from a noble family; it''s really disgusting, and can''t be eaten." Turning her head, he instructed the servants, "What are you all still standing there for? Are you trying to ignore my words?"


    From afar, the Madame Feng rushed over with a darkened face. Most likely, she had just woken up with a jade hairpin tied to her head.


    Listening to Feng Ru Jun''s words without missing a word, she almost screamed, "Ru Jun, what are you doing!?" How could the Feng family be so shameless in the future after causing such a huge disaster? How could a prince continue to act like a man?


    Madame Feng''s voice was like a bolt of lightning that pierced the sky. She could not maintain her proper appearance as she charged forward, and the aggressive Feng Ru Jun took a step back in fear. "mother ¡­"


    "Pa!" This slap was too loud and the surroundings instantly became silent.


    "Come, come back with me. I won''t be ashamed even if you don''t want my face!" Madame Feng dragged his daughter''s hands and left. Feng Ru Jun seemed to have been beaten silly, he fell and crashed behind his back with a blank look on his face.


    "Madame Feng, wait a moment." Xi Jiu Er called out to Madame Feng, her face carrying a faint ridicule: "Miss Feng has yet to apologize to my Sister-in-law!"


    Apologize? For her to apologize to this slut? At this time, Feng Ru Jun regained his senses, and was about to say something, but was stopped by the fierce gaze of the Madame Feng, he was so frightened that he started trembling, and did not say anything.


    "This must be the Miss Zhang. It is all because of my usual negligence in disciplining my daughter, allowing her to develop such a unruly and unruly personality. Today''s mistake is all my daughter''s fault. I hope that Lord Miss Zhang will be magnanimous and not lower herself to the same level as my daughter. " Although Madame Feng admitted that it was her daughter''s fault, or just gave her a slap, he gave her another slap back. Furthermore, as a dignified Madame Feng, he took the initiative to apologize. If Miss Zhang was a smart person, he should know when to stop.


    Xi Jiu Er heard that she was saying that she was apologizing, but in reality, every single word she said cleared up Feng Ru Jun''s mistakes. If anyone else did not know, they would have thought that it was Zhang Cui Lan''s fault, it was truly infuriating.


    "Madame Feng, we, the Song Family, are also a rational person. We will take this as our mark. Since it is Miss Feng''s fault, it should be her who apologizes!" Xi Jiu Er turned a blind eye to the Feng Family''s anger, and said coldly: "As for the mistakes in the Madame Feng''s education, you don''t need to tell us, you should go back and tell Master Feng!"


    "Song Tian, don''t go too far. My mother has already apologized. Feng Ru Jun shouted in anger.


    Xi Jiu Er calmly looked at the Madame Feng, her mouth carrying a slight taunt: "Miss Feng is so filthy with her words, she doesn''t put the Song Family in her eyes at all. We cannot afford to have guests like this, please go back with Miss and Miss Feng. Ge La, see the guests out."


    What sort of humiliation was this? Everyone in the Feng Family was so angry that their bodies were trembling, and their faces were even more dark and rosy. It was likely that after today, no one would not know of the Feng Family''s actions.


    Before, Madame Feng had wanted to keep the situation, but now that she had been humiliated in front of a junior, she lost all face. No matter how good one''s cultivation was, one''s skills would still be ruined. If one were to be at odds with a junior, then they would have no status at all. If one were to ignore this grudge, it would truly be difficult to swallow.


    "Young Master Song is such a eloquent person! Madame Song really knows how to raise children ¡­ " Madame Feng held back the pain in his heart. At this moment, she had no choice but to not fuss about it with him.


    "Let''s go!" He would definitely make the Song Family pay for the humiliation today!


    Madame Song only said, "Tian''er did the right thing, so this is how it should be!"


    Being beaten up by Feng Ru Jun, Zhang Cui Lan had made her grind her teeth in hate. She had asked Xi Jiu Er for a set of medicine and five hundred silver coins to change her appearance. Xi Jiu Er told him that she was the servant, there was no need for him to hide.


    The Fifth Prince''s movements were really fast. He had only sent someone to the restaurant for a chat in half an hour. Before leaving, Madame Song warned him, "This Fifth Prince is a person who is easy to get along with. He is not your good friend from the past, so you have to be careful with his words.


    "Yes, mother, don''t worry."


    The Fifth Prince had long set up a table full of fine wine and delicacies. You came up to apologize: "My cousin was spoiled by my aunt, and she has a very wild and honest personality. I already know about what happened that day. Your excellency, forgive her." With that, he picked up the wine cup and smiled, "I''ll apologize for the three cups to you."


    "This Miss Feng is too indiscreet. Fifth Prince, you didn''t hear what she said back then, but that slap ¡­" Xi Jiu Er sighed and blamed herself: "At that time, I was also infuriated by Miss Feng to the point that I wanted them to leave, I really shouldn''t have!"


    Seeing her expression, as if she had really done something that couldn''t be kept, the Fifth Prince had the heart to rope her in so he said without a care: "Things are already like this. Did a junior like her bicker with a junior? "He would never do something so dishonorable."


    "That''s good." Xi Jiu Er laughed as if a burden was lifted off his shoulders.


    "Come and drink."


    "I can''t drink. My body was too empty a few years ago, so I can''t drink anymore." Xi Jiu Er waved her hand.


    "Oh, I see." "Actually, even if a woman is unruly and willful, she would still have a way to take care of her. After marrying home, she would definitely be more obedient than that cat in a short period of time."


    "If it''s a girl like Miss Feng, I would rather not marry her for the rest of my life. Xi Jiu Er revealed a face full of fear, as if she had seen a ghost when she mentioned Miss Feng.


    "Actually, my younger cousin is quite good. If I were to marry her home and properly train her, she would definitely be a virtuous and virtuous woman." "There must be a misunderstanding between you and your cousin. Why don''t you two get along with each other for a period of time?"


    "Fifth Prince''s meaning, could it be that you want me to marry Miss Feng?" Xi Jiu Er shook her hands and said, "No, if we marry him, we will definitely not have a good life. "Fifth Prince, you''ve really saved me from this plan!"


    Since the Fifth Prince had already rejected him so bluntly, continuing to speak would surely cause his expression to be difficult. The Fifth Prince smiled and stopped continuing this topic. When she mentioned the Fifth Prince''s birthday banquet that was about to happen, the two of them stopped talking for a while.


    As soon as they left, the Fifth Prince''s face instantly went black, and he angrily slapped the table as he scolded, "A group of trash that''s insufficient to deal with more than enough, you''re infuriating me to death." Furthermore, when they heard about Miss Feng''s matter, they thought that it was the fault of the pampered Miss, but who would have thought that it would be so serious? Too embarrassing.


    On the way back, the Feng Family''s actions had already spread out. It would be very difficult to find a place to stay in the Yan Du''s Engagement. After returning to the residence, Zhang Cui Lan''s matter had already been completed.

 C265

    Zhang Cui Lan secretly sent Feng Ru Jun a letter in Song Tian''s name, saying that he would meet her at the Pu Du Temple. How could Feng Ru Jun, who had long lost his head from anger, investigate the authenticity of this matter? He immediately got on the horse carriage and happily went to the Pu Du Temple! He planned to teach Xi Jiu Er a good lesson!


    Pudu Temple is a fire is not the temple, but the reputation is still very high, because there was a princess was married in Pudu Temple. Feng Ru Jun, the host of Pu Du Temple had personally come over to receive him and the two little Shamei girls followed behind him, all of them welcoming him with expressions on their faces.


    Feng Ru Jun thought about other things in his heart, and thought that they must have been ordered by Song Tian to be so courteous by him. Thinking that Song Tian was trying to please her, even the host found her pleasing to look at, and when the host praised her, her smile became even more beautiful.


    The host said as he escorted her to the hall! Feng Ru Jun walked on the stone floor with his cape draped over his shoulders, listening to the bell ring out, his heart was very excited! She was somewhat impatient to see Song Tian ¡­ She did not expect Song Tian to like his!


    Pui, she doesn''t want to be a dog shit. Let''s see how she will embarrass her today. Suddenly ¡ª A plan formed in her mind! Song Tian, I will make it up to you today.


    With the servant supporting Feng Ru Jun, Feng Ru Jun paid respects to the Buddha earnestly and donated a large amount of fragrant oil to the host, making him extremely happy. The host said: "Miss, why don''t you follow me to the meditation room to listen to the scriptures."


    Feng Ru Jun nodded: "Then I''ll have to trouble you to host it."


    Outside the meditation room, Feng Ru Jun had two maids wait outside. One of the maids immediately rejected them: "Miss, Madame has instructed me to follow you closely for your safety." From the looks of it, he was planning to follow Feng Ru Jun and listen to his lecture.


    Feng Ru Jun sneered: "Safe? Is there anything wrong with just listening to a scripture? Rest assured, if anything happens to me, I will bear the responsibility myself. I will not make things difficult for you. "


    The servant girl did not seem to give in at all, "Please understand Miss''s difficulties. Madame does not dare to go against my words!" Feng Ru Jun was so angry that she wanted to go over and slap him, but after thinking about it, she decided to just do it.


    Only then did the servant say in fear: "Thank you Miss for understanding this Servant."


    The host did not say anything. When they arrived at the meditation room, Feng Ru Jun sat on the praying mat and listened to her lecture. Hearing that, she became distracted, and gave the host many meaningful glances, but the other party had no intentions of moving, causing Feng Ru Jun to become angry.


    After about half an hour, Feng Ru Jun could no longer hold on, his entire person fell down just like that! Feng Ru Jun was so shocked that he immediately helped her up. He panted and said: "It''s not a big matter, it''s just an old ailment, I just need to rest for a bit."


    Only then did the host relax and let Feng Ru Jun be sent to the side room to rest! Only after Feng Ru Jun laid down did she relax. She finally didn''t need to listen to those lousy books, her head was about to explode from listening! After a while, Shamei said: "The host said that this house in Miss is not suitable for recuperation, so changing it would benefit the body of the Miss."


    Feng Ru Jun was ecstatic, he immediately said impressively: "No wonder I feel uncomfortable lying down, so that''s how it is!"


    Then Shami led her to another room, where they could only see the shadow of a man. She was immediately ecstatic, it seems like Song Tian! When he walked into the room, there was no one inside. It was probably hidden away.


    Feng Ru Jun''s plan was very simple. When she was alone with Song Tian, she would yell that Song Tian had molested her ¡­ He was plotting against her, hahahaha! However, Feng Ru Jun never thought that he would be implicated so easily!


    Feng Ru Jun was already quiet within his own plans. After he left, Feng Ru Jun shouted from the room: "Song Tian, where are you? "Where is he?" Her body was instantly embraced by someone else. She was stunned. From the looks of it, she was a man! It had to be Song Tian, who else could it be? She squeezed out a charming smile and turned her head. Who knew that at the moment she turned her head, all of her expression would immediately turn dumbfounded.


    How could this possibly be Song Tian? She was quite shocked. Just ¡­ just what was going on? She wanted to shout out loud, but the man only revealed an unbridled smile and threw himself at her, fiercely threatening her: "Scream, scream, scream! Let''s let everyone see how the Great Miss of a Venerable family can be played by a man without any shame. "


    "You ¡­ "You ¡­" Feng Ru Jun glared at the man and said, "Speak, who was the one who ordered you to do this? How much silver am I giving you, Song Tian? I will pay you double! "


    The man seemed to not be moved at all. His pair of muddy eyes sized up Feng Ru Jun as he let out a chuckle that resembled grinding sand: "Hahahaha! I am only willing to be intimate with you, Miss, and I don''t care about the amount of silver. "


    "Did Zhang Cui Lan this slut teach you to order this? "Isn''t it?" When Feng Ru Jun thought about it, he only thought of one person ¡ª ¡ª Zhang Cui Lan. It must have been her revenge, it must have been. Why else would she do such a thing? She hated her, so she invited him over using Song Tian''s tone ¡ª ¡ª to lure him in.


    In the end, I took the bait... If she was really insulted by this man, then she would be done for for her entire life. No, she doesn''t want to ¡ª She intended to scream out loud, but was seen through by the man in a single step. He immediately pounced over and tightly covered Feng Ru Jun''s lips.


    Feng Ru Jun walked out with a pale face. She had already meticulously organized everything so that the servant girl could not see any clues. Taking a deep breath, he asked the servant, "What did you hear just now?"


    The servant shook her head, "Servant didn''t hear anything."


    "Useless thing." With that, she fiercely slapped him, causing the servant girl to almost fall to the ground. The servant girl did not know what mistake she had committed, her face was filled with fear as she stammered: "Miss, you, what happened to you?"


    After hearing this question, Feng Ru Jun couldn''t help but let out a cry. What should he do, what should he do ¡­ Her life is over... It''s all over ¡­


    Feng Ru Jun didn''t know how she managed to return to her room. Along the way, her mind was completely blank.

 C266

    The maidservant said, "The little Young Master said that the Fifth Prince''s birthday will be in seven or eight more days. He told you to go with him, and that you must not miss an opportunity like this."


    "I know." Zhang Cui Lan glanced at the servant by her side, she was well-mannered and did not speak much on matters of poise, and knew how to advance or retreat.


    The servant was called Yu Huan, she was Feng Qing Cheng''s man. Originally, he was there to serve Xi Jiu Er, but now, he was ordered by Xi Jiu Er to serve Zhang Cui Lan, hence he gave him a lot of help.


    Furthermore, Feng Ru Jun had fainted all of a sudden in just five or six days of effort after returning back to the Madame Feng. She only had her daughter by her side now. What would she do if her daughter had something?


    She didn''t know what was going on with her daughter. After returning from a trip, she became depressed and stayed indoors all day. She guessed that it was because of some bad rumors outside. gnashed his teeth in hatred when he mentioned this rumor. It was extremely unpleasant to hear that there were everything people said in the outside world.


    She just hoped that this matter would soon be over so that she could find another way out. It was also because of this matter that she was currently on top of a tiger, unable to back down. No matter what, he had to make this marriage a reality, otherwise ¡­ Thinking about Lord Feng''s heartless words, Madame Feng only shed tears silently.


    Now his daughter suddenly fainted. She did not think too much and asked the doctor to come over and diagnose her. She scolded the maidservants, "How did you serve Master!?"


    The maidservant said in a panic, "If you return to Madame, Miss''s appetite has been poor for the past few days. There''s no use in persuading him." As she spoke, all the servants in the room kneeled down on the floor. Madame knew her daughter''s arrogant nature, so how could the servants control her?


    At this moment, the doctor came to check his pulse. There was a strange expression on his face! He was brought here from the Feng Family by the Madame Feng, I can trust him! When Madame Feng saw that he wanted to say something but was unable to, she suddenly had a bad premonition. She ordered the maidservants, "All of you can leave."


    After the maidservants had all left, the doctor said, "Madame, Miss, Miss, she is very happy ¡­"


    "Joy?" Madame Feng opened her eyes wide, as if she was listening to a fantasy story. Did she hear it wrong? Did she hear it right? Instinctively, Madame Feng retorted, "Nonsense, Feng Ru Jun is still a woman who hasn''t left the pavilion, how can she be happy?"


    The doctor was at a loss. After facing Madame Feng for a long time, he finally said: "Madame, I have been a doctor for dozens of years. My wedding vein is something that ordinary doctors can diagnose, and it''s even more so for me. Of course, he didn''t dare to say anything more. This was a matter of their own residence and had nothing to do with him.


    The Madame Feng calmed down. That''s right, she had already been a doctor for more than twenty years, why was it that she could not even diagnose a happy meridian? The Madame Feng said reluctantly: "Do you know that you are not allowed to tell anyone about this?"


    The doctor hurriedly replied, and then asked: "Madame... Do you need any medicine? "


    The Madame Feng said with difficulty: "Open first." She wanted to ask who the child was! The doctor left after prescribing the abortion medicine, he thought to himself, "I really didn''t notice, the girl that didn''t leave the pavilion is already pregnant!" This made the commoners have a whole new level of respect for him. The rumors outside were indeed true ¡­ Tsk tsk ¡­


    Madame Feng looked like she was completely exhausted, she sat on the side of the bed and watched the unconscious Feng Ru Jun thinking about something, but in truth, her mind was completely blank! Just then, a servant came in and asked softly: "Madame, are we going to set up a meal?"


    Finally breaking the silence, Madame Feng''s face revealed a vicious light. She fiercely glared at the servant girl and said: "Scram, get out of my sight."


    The maid was so scared that his face turned ashen, and he immediately retreated out of the room.


    When Madame Feng shouted out, Feng Ru Jun also woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw the dark expression of her servant staring at her as if she was going to eat her, she trembled in fear: "mother, you, what happened to you? Why are you looking at me like that? "


    Although Madame Feng doted on her daughter a bit, and was a bit more arrogant, but she had her eyes on things like etiquette and integrity! As soon as Feng Ru Jun finished speaking, she sent him a palm strike, immediately stunning him. In her memories, her mother rarely hit her! How could he give in like this?


    "mother ¡­" She didn''t know what to do, so she shouted.


    Madame Feng was both heartbroken and furious, "Just now, the doctor checked your pulse and said that you have a child ¡­ "You, what did you say about you?"


    What? Child? Feng Ru Jun was dumbstruck by what she heard, she was not able to react at all, which allowed Madame Feng to judge that her daughter had been bullied, following that she shouted angrily: "How many times have I told you, a young lady has to pay attention to her manners, what about you? See what you did? How do you expect the mother to explain this? "Good, I really raised a good daughter, a good daughter!"


    The reason why Madame Feng lowered her voice was because she was afraid of being overheard.


    Only then did Feng Ru Jun react and became afraid: "mother, mother, daughter knows her wrongs, daughter knows her wrongs ¡­ ¡­"


    Madame Feng angrily asked, "Who is the father of this child? Whose is it? "Speak!"


    Feng Ru Jun thought about how he had been possessed by a crude and dirty man. Seeing the angry look on his mother''s face, he couldn''t say what he was about to say. Madame Feng was so angry that she almost fainted. Even at this time, he still wasn''t telling her the truth! Speak, whose child is this? "


    "I, I ¡­" "I ¡­" Feng Ru Jun stammered, not knowing what to say.


    Madame Feng shouted, "Speak! Say something! " She was currently infuriated to the point that she almost fainted from the shaking of her body. Her precious daughter had always been like a treasure, how did this happen?


    "mother, there is someone who wants to frame me. It must be because Zhang Cui Lan was slapped in her heart by me and her reputation fell apart just because of this scheme of mine. She was the one who gave me a child!" Feng Ru Jun cried.


    "How did she frame you?" Madame Feng asked coldly. After that, Feng Ru Jun started to talk about how Zhang Cui Lan wrote a letter to her and framed her into entering her room in the temple. The more she listened, the angrier Madame Feng became.


    "I''ve already told the doctor to prescribe the medicine. Your body''s weak right now, so you''ll need to wait a few days before taking the medicine. Rest well, I''m tired ¡­" Madame Feng staggered away, the servant outside the door supported her, and asked worriedly: "Madame, are you alright?"


    Madame Feng''s heart ached for her daughter, but she really wanted to beat her up to vent her hatred. She shook her head and said, "It''s fine." Knowing that it was late at night, she doted on Feng''s current personal servant, and the other one was her own personal servant. She was capable, but was sent out by Feng Ru Jun. No matter if she knew or not, only the dead could keep this a secret. Then, he called over one of the more capable maidservants. He had personally trained this maidservant in the hope that he would be able to take care of his daughter and not do anything wrong again.

    In a blink of an eye, the Fifth Prince''s birthday banquet had arrived. Early in the morning, he went to the palace to receive his gratitude, and then went to the soft consort Palace to sit at the head of the banquet. soft consort''s appearance was similar to Madame Feng''s. Not only were her facial features beautiful and imposing, she had gained a good reputation in the palace for many years. Because she was tactful, the king of Wind Nation would often hold her hand and say that she was his flower interpreters.


    "Let me see what the Emperor has bestowed upon me." soft consort''s eyes were filled with stars, her facial features were like a painting, the sky''s dress made her look extremely beautiful, with a treasure blue robe covering the outside, it was like a finishing touch. No one would believe that she was the fifth prince''s imperial concubine. Such a gorgeous beauty was probably only a beauty in her twenties.


    The Emperor bestowed him with quite a large sum, and there were countless gold and silver cloth. He roughly glanced at the soft consort and knew what he was doing. Although the rewards seemed to be a little more than before, none of them were the emperor''s beloved items. He remembered that he had already promised her that he would use the ink stone as a birthday present ¡­


    "Imperial Father bestowed upon my son the word ''honored'', as the prince." Fifth Prince? No, he should be called Prince Rong now. Seeing that his son was already titled as a prince at such a young age, soft consort did not think that way. The prince was the greatest king, if he were to give him the title, how would he be promoted? For many years, the flowers were not for nothing.


    "Mufei, you don''t seem very happy?" Prince Rong was acutely aware of her mother''s dejected mood, and thought to himself, "Is mother really here?" Didn''t he change his name when he became a prince? She was the youngest prince.


    "Nothing. I just suddenly thought of the Feng Family and felt depressed." When soft consort saw his son so happy, how could he say what he had guessed? He was saying that today was her son''s birthday, but he should be happy.


    "Why is the mother mentioning the Feng Family? This Feng Family is also very stupid, and that Feng Ru Jun is even more stupid. As he spoke of this Prince Rong, he felt pained in his heart, and ruthlessly slapped Feng Ru Jun a few times to vent his anger, "Then Song Tian has already clearly told this son that he will not marry a Feng Family Miss."


    soft consort was unconcerned: "This child is really impatient, it''s just a Feng Family, if the Song Family does not want to marry, then so what if they are angry?" His eyes darkened as he thought, "If this Song Family is unable to be your subordinate, we can''t let them go."


    "Mufei has an idea?" Prince Rong had been troubled by this matter for the past few days. The reason why mother and son came today was to ask soft consort to give them a decision.


    "Isn''t there a war in the north recently? Why not bring Song Yun Shan and his son onto the battlefield? " In her eyes, no matter how old her child was, he would look just like a baby. As a mother, she was destined to worry about him for the rest of her life.


    "Just in case ¡­ What should he do if the Song Family was victorious? Although Song Yun Shan has not been on the battlefield for many years, and Ke Er has heard that he has never slacked off in the past few years, he still goes on to study the Military Strategy. " Just in case Song Yun Shan returned in triumph, he would definitely shine again, and would be rewarded. The harder it was to win her over afterwards, the harder it was to win her over.


    "What are you afraid of? Even if he wins the battle, the distance between the north and here is thousands of miles. Who knows what will happen along the way?" If I get killed by someone, I might even come for revenge. " soft consort looked at his son reproachfully. Wasn''t the more anxious the more confused this child became? How could he not have thought of such a simple logic?


    Prince Rong laughed, "Mufei is right."


    "Okay, it''s almost noon. The time for your birthday banquet is about to arrive. Quickly go back." The soft consort had long since sent the birthday party to his residence. She had personally sewn a set of robes for each needle and thread to pray for peace and blessings as a mother.


    When the Prince Rong returned to his residence, the signboard had already been changed. It was written in gold: Duke Rong Palace. Prince Rong was very pleased and he laughed loudly as he entered the room. He immediately surrounded a lot of the guests and congratulated them.


    Since Song Yun Shan was the son of Song Yun Shan, he could not be absent. The appearance of the Sister-in-law Zhang Cui Lan immediately attracted the attention of many people. The news of the Song Family''s little Young Master chasing the Madame and Feng Family away spread like wildfire. This time, the Feng Family had also come, and everyone was waiting to see what would happen next.


    Xi Jiu Er came at the right time, she was assigned to the third table, and with Song Yun Shan''s identity, she should be seated at the second table. He did not have an official position right now, so sitting at the three table was completely out of consideration for the Song Family. It was said that the Song Family''s pearl, Song Tian, was famous for being a silkpants Young Master. Everyone was talking about it with relish.


    Song Tian returned three years later. This was the first time he made this public. With a handsome face, calmness and poise, the rare treasure blue robe that was hard to come by and had a hint of a carefree smile on it, accentuated the noble air around him. Her fair skin glowed like jade under the afternoon sun.


    How was this a foppish young lord Young Master? It was clear that he was a young man who had a jade-like face and a body like that of jade. Although she wasn''t as beautiful as the fourth prince, she was still a person who could bear to look at him. Amidst the surprise of the crowd, Xi Jiu Er bowed to the officials. How could she recognize any of the people? It was just a show.


    "Is this the Song Family''s precious Young Master? "It doesn''t look like it ¡­"


    Look, it''s been three years since I last saw him. He looks just like the beautiful young man from the painting. Tsk, tsk.


    "It is truly a three day farewell. I must have a whole new level of respect for you ¡­"


    "Men should go out and gain experience ¡­"


    Everyone could not help but recall Song Tian''s carefree and carefree appearance from before, as if his soul was being devoured by a spirit demon.


    As Xi Jiu Er sat down, she gave Zhang Cui Lan a comforting look from afar. Zhang Cui Lan sat amongst the women, her status increasing greatly because she became the Song Family''s Miss, and the position she arranged was also good. Just as she sat down, everyone was dissatisfied, looking down on him.


    Zhang Cui Lan maintained her dignified and proper smile, but she swore in her heart that he looked down on her? When she flew up to the branch one day and became a phoenix, she would see how they fawned over her! She then sat down on the table, and glanced at the other young talents.


    Therefore, Zhang Cui Lan looked at the seats that were closest to the main table. Not to mention sweeping her gaze down, only Xi Jiu Er''s elegant and handsome posture was the first to enter her eyes, flanked by the slightly older Young Master, who could be considered quite handsome ¡­

 C268

    "The fourth prince has arrived!"


    Everyone stood up, and Feng Qing Cheng''s fiery and joyous figure appeared in front of everyone. He and the Prince Rong today both had a fiery red body, so the comparison between the two of them was naturally a defeat for the Prince Rong. Prince Rong was so angry that his face was crooked. This Fourth Bro must have done it on purpose, he must have!


    When Feng Qing Cheng appeared, he immediately dodged everyone''s gaze. He was extraordinarily handsome, with every movement he made, he was pressured by the noble spirit, as long as he stood there, the surroundings would lose their luster. He was the illegitimate child of the Wind Nation''s king and had always been living among the people. He did not have the slightest bit of rusticity in his body and was even more noble than the naturally pampered prince, the Prince Rong. It could only be said that no matter where a member of the royal family went, they would always be different from a mortal.


    "Greetings His Highness the Fourth Prince." The eighty or so people around the table bowed in unison, making the scene somewhat funny. Xi Jiu Er laughed in her heart, looking at Prince Rong''s black ashen face, a wisp of a smile emerged.


    "Get up." Feng Qing Cheng''s expression remained indifferent, as he brought along a body of sulfur to the side of the Prince Rong and said, "Today is fifth brother''s birthday, Fourth Brother is here to wish you good luck in being born. I heard you like to collect books and poems, so I intentionally found a set of ''Complete Creek Sands'' treasures to give to you. " The servant beside him said that he would pass a long embroidered box to the servant of Prince Rong.


    Flawless Sand? That was Master Zhang Shuiheng''s masterpiece ¡­ However ¡­ Who was Zhang Shuiheng? A woman who was good at painting, especially a girl who was dressed shamelessly, was even more vivid. Their expressions and appearances were also different. Many men like to collect Zhang Shuiheng''s paintings in the middle of the night to quietly comfort XXX. Of course, his paintings weren''t all of them. There were also many paintings that could be admired by women, but all of them were definitely well-behaved ¡­


    However, this Flawless Sand ¡­ The woman inside had the bashful face of a fairy. She wore a thin layer of transparent gauze that accentuated her alluring figure and made a gesture of ''love in the water''. There were many forgeries in this painting, and it was impossible to know where they had landed.


    This... Giving this painting away seemed to be a little inappropriate, it was a humiliation to the Prince Rong. Of course, they seemed to want to see what the real thing looked like. After all, a fake was a fake, so how could it compare to the real thing? Some people looked at the embroidered box eagerly and wanted to go forward and open it. Some people twitched their mouths, looking down on the fourth prince''s impolite actions. It was too disgraceful of a prince to send such an unsightly painting in such a setting.


    On the other side, the ladies were blushing with shyness. As for those blushing women, they were already married. As for those young girls who had yet to leave the pavilion, they naturally didn''t understand.


    Feng Qing Cheng ''chuckled'' like a fairy. Even if he did something to make people forget about his laughter. Prince Rong''s smile quickly returned to normal. There was no need to be angry at this kind of person for his birthday, the two of them would have a fight in the future. In any case, there would be a good show later on.


    "Fourth prince, this is my position ¡­"


    "I know, let''s switch." Feng Qing Cheng sat down beside Xi Jiu Er. She acted humbly and politely, and pointed to the place she should do ¡ª the chair that had been vacated beside Prince Rong.


    "But ¡­" The old official opened his mouth and sat down on the empty chair helplessly.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s actions did not mean that he was telling everyone that he did not like Prince Rong! Although it was no longer a secret that the battle for the throne was fought over from the shadows to the open. In order to maintain the face of the imperial family, the two of them looked at each other and their hearts were at odds. Today, Feng Qing Cheng had only brought this matter up, and was not even willing to continue acting out this act.


    Prince Rong snorted, he had the look of a gentleman who did not care about this lowly person, and continued to laugh merrily.


    When the female servants saw Zhang Cui Lan, they gritted their teeth in anger, if not for Madame Feng stopping her, she would have immediately rushed forward to fix him, causing Feng Ru Jun to become weak. After being pregnant again after being ambushed by Zhang Cui Lan, the anger in her chest made her feel even weaker.


    "Rahu, be quiet." Madame Feng bellowed as she tightly gripped her daughter''s wrist. The women at the table smiled kindly at them, but the mockery in their mouths and the mockery in their eyes could not be concealed. If it wasn''t for the relationship between the two of them and the Fifth Prince, they would have surely spoken ill of each other long ago.


    Feng Ru Jun''s body was weak, no matter how good the rouge was, it could not hide her pale white face. Right now, her face was fierce, like a female ghost with a violent aura, making everyone avoid her.


    Zhang Cui Lan was seated behind them, and Madame Feng seemed to be very surprised to see him, as she laughed as if nothing had happened: "Miss Zhang, why are you here too?"


    Zhang Cui Lan revealed a gentle and slightly bashful expression: "It was Brother Yi who brought me here, Prince Rong had also allowed it." It means that the owner has already agreed, what are you questioning here?


    Madame Feng nodded her head: "So that''s how it is, there is still a seat here, if Miss Zhang does not mind us sitting together, okay? Previously, you and my daughter had a misunderstanding.


    "This ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan glanced at Feng Ru Jun in fear. Your daughter looked like she was about to eat someone. She shook her head and said: "Cui Lan does not dare to cross over, thank you Madame Feng for your kind intentions, this place is good enough."


    "If I told you to come over, then come over. Why are you spouting so much nonsense?" Feng Ru Jun, who had been resisting his impulse, couldn''t hold it in anymore and screamed. Her voice was too sharp, causing many people to be unhappy, but she did not notice it, all she wanted was to follow the plan and fix Zhang Cui Lan up, so that she would have a bad reputation.


    "No, no." Zhang Cui Lan seemed to be frightened by Feng Ru Jun''s forceful attitude, and her small face turned white helplessly. She was in stark contrast with Feng Ru Jun, who was overbearing and uncultured, and well-behaved and sensible, naturally, Zhang Cui Lan gained a better impression of him.


    "Madame Feng, I don''t think there''s a need for that, it''s good that Miss Zhang is sitting here." The one who spoke out to protect Zhang Cui Lan was the Madame of Han Lin Academy''s big boss. It was not because they liked Zhang Cui Lan, but because they really couldn''t stand the way the mother and daughter of the Feng Family acted.


    Madame Feng''s face stiffened. The other party''s attitude was very firm, and it would not be easy for him to bring Zhang Cui Lan over. Suppressing the anger in her heart, she said perfunctorily: "Hehe, it seems that I have become passionate!"


    "mother ¡­" Feng Ru Jun opened her eyes wide in disbelief. Could it be that mother was not going to take revenge for her? It was all planned!


    "Calm down and wait for the right moment." Then, Feng Ru Jun quietened down and stared fiercely at Zhang Cui Lan with a ''we''ll see'' look on her face.

 C269

    I''m your son-in-law.


    Everyone laughed and laughed as they ate and danced. Feng Ru Jun smelled that greasy smell and almost vomited. He retched and retched intermittently, telling others how to eat it? One of them could not help but say: "Is Miss Feng not feeling well? If not, why don''t you go down and rest?" Otherwise, he would be in for a loss of appetite.


    Feng Ru Jun was afraid that Zhang Cui Lan would run away after getting off the table, so he shook his head and said impatiently: "No need, I''m fine." She had caused the other party''s face to turn ashen. She truly didn''t know what was good for him and it didn''t matter if she died from illness.


    Madame Feng tried to smooth things over: "My daughter is already suffering from the cold a few days ago, I can''t bear to see greasy things, I''ve troubled you guys." With that, she planned to pull her daughter down, but no matter what, Feng Ru Jun refused to get off the table, which left her with no other choice.


    "Since you''re sick, why don''t you bring it along with you? What should we do if you come out and pass on the illness to someone else?" One of them put down his chopsticks and said in disgust, "I''m not eating anymore. It seems like I no longer have any appetite." With that, he left with the maidservant. And then he left one after another ¡­ Only the mother and daughter remained at the table, appearing exceptionally out of place.


    "mother ¡­" Feng Ru Jun threw herself into Madame Feng''s embrace and cried softly, causing Madame Feng''s heart to ache so much that it felt like it was about to break. "Don''t cry, don''t cry.


    From a distance, Xi Jiu Er watched the movements of Feng Ru Jun''s table as he ate. She asked the man who was eating elegantly, "Is Liu Xiang still alive?"


    "You''ll know when the time is right!" Feng Qing Cheng kept him in suspense.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was at ease. Liu Xiang was still alive! This was undoubtedly good news for her, and nothing could make her more excited than this news.


    "I''ll go to your place tonight." A light and elegant voice floated along with the wind, as though no one had ever spoken it, causing Xi Jiu Er''s entire body to tremble. She was not used to being with Feng Qing Cheng. This man was temperamental and made people feel uncomfortable.


    A man around the age of 30 years old walked in. Even if he dressed like a gongzi, it couldn''t hide his vulgarity. He walked in front of the mansion and said he was looking for Madame Feng and Feng Miss! The gatekeeper looked him up and down before asking, "Who are you? How was it possible to find someone to come to the prince''s mansion? The only way to get in was if there was a post! Do you have a sticker? "


    The man shook his head, and the gatekeeper immediately said: "You actually left without a greeting card. Today is Prince Rong''s birthday banquet, if you dare come and cause trouble, you will be sentenced to death." With that, he unhesitatingly made plans to chase the man away. The man was so frightened that he quickly said: "Two officials, I just want to find Madame Feng to talk to her about something, I won''t delay any longer."


    "What kind of person are you in Madame Feng? You can report your life to me as well." The other party''s attitude was very unyielding. The guard at the door did not dare to obstruct him, fearing that he would miss anything important.


    "I am her son-in-law, the husband of Madame Feng!" The man''s words immediately caused the gatekeeping servant to be dumbstruck. After a long while, she finally said: "You, what nonsense are you spouting!? Let''s go, you crazy bastard. Do you want to go crazy? "Hurry up and leave!" With that, she chased the man away.


    The young man was anxious: "I am indeed Miss Feng''s husband, if you do not believe me, then let Miss Feng come out and confront me! "Hey, I''m telling you the truth. I''m her husband!" The man seemed to be purposefully shouting so loudly, arousing the curiosity of many passersby.


    Today, there were already many spectators, so there were quite a few people watching. They had heard of Miss Feng''s great name before.


    "Lad, have you gone crazy thinking about your wife?" An aunt laughed.


    "Are you talking about Miss Feng, the one who was chased out by the Song Family?"


    "Aiya, is this young lad sick? Miss Feng is from the Shangguan Family, he hasn''t gotten married yet."


    The passersby all started to talk at once about the angry young man, insisting that he was not only Feng Ru Jun''s husband, but also a token of love. He was curious, and asked curiously as he saw the young man speak so impressively, "What is this trusted person?"


    "Scram, scram! This is the place where everyone is gathered! All of you scram!" One of the servants winked at the other.


    "Aiya, let Miss Feng come out and face him. Let''s see if what she said is true. What if it''s true?"


    "Look at his clear eyes. He doesn''t seem like a lunatic, there''s a high chance that this is true."


    "Then if it''s true, doesn''t that mean that Miss Feng ¡­"


    "Aiya, I heard that Miss Feng''s character was not very good in the past."


    With so many people, the gatekeeper had no choice but to report to the Prince Rong. Strangely, not so much had happened in the past. No matter how hard he tried, so much had flowed in, surrounding the entrance to the room so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.


    "Your Highness ¡­" Prince ¡­ "A man has barged in outside to cause trouble!"


    The Prince Rong was still trying his best not to take it to heart and said blandly: "Causing trouble? "Just send him away. If he continues to cause trouble, we''ll punish him." If it was before, the staff would have been dead, but today was different. Furthermore, today was his birthday, so it was not appropriate for him to see blood.


    "My prince, the man is saying that he is Miss Feng''s husband, and he also said that he has someone close to Miss! However, he was unmoved, and kept yelling that he must see Miss Feng. "


    Before anyone could react, Madame Feng angrily shouted, "There is actually such a person, to ruin my daughter''s reputation, I will go out and take a look!" After that, he stood up and left, leaving behind the pale and trembling Feng Ru Jun. It took Feng Ru Jun a lot of effort before he managed to stand up. The servant wanted to come over and support her, but she shook him off: "Go out and see who exactly dares to insult my reputation!"


    The maidservant thought thathee was angered. That''s right, if this happened in front of so many people, how could he meet anyone after this incident? After the maidservant bowed, she said, "Yes, Servant will go take a look."


    When Madame Feng left, everyone finally understood: this was going to be a good show. Naturally, the men were too embarrassed to go and watch the commotion. The female servants, who usually enjoyed watching the commotion, rushed out. As the owner of the house, Prince Rong had yet to speak. His face turned black, and his aura became even more oppressive.


    "Who are you, to actually slander my daughter!" Madame Feng glared at the young man. After sizing him up, she sneered in her heart. Unexpectedly, the moment the person saw her, he immediately kneeled down and said, "Greetings, mother-in-law!"


    What? Yue, his mother? Madame Feng raged: "You nonsense maniac, come, drag this man who dreams all day down and beat him again!"


    "Mother, please look!" As he finished speaking, the crowd burst into an uproar. The young man had taken out a red apron embroidered with peonies and a small word. Monarch! Madame Feng looked at the apron in astonishment, as though she wanted to see through the fire, because this was her daughter''s apron! Why was it in the hands of this man?


    The reason why she came out in such a hurry was to vent her anger. She wanted to take care of the troublemakers and vent her anger. Not now... He was actually, actually holding her precious daughter''s undergarment!


    "How vile! Servants, drag them down and beat them to death!" Many thoughts flashed through Madame Feng''s mind, but in the end, she still planned to kill this man cleanly! When the person heard that she was going to be beaten to death, she immediately said confidently: "mother-in-law, your son and Miss Feng already have a husband and wife, why did you stop them? We really like each other! Now that Miss Feng is no longer a virgin, she might already be pregnant with my flesh and blood. "

 C270

    That''s my kid.


    "Bullshit." Although Madame Feng did not know what was happening inside, if this man continued to speak nonsense, her daughter''s reputation would go down the drain. She immediately raised her voice: "Men, pull this man out and beat him to death."


    "mother-in-law, I know that I am not worthy of the Miss, but we are truly in love! I still remember how much we loved each other at the temple. She said that she wanted to marry me, so why did she go back on her word! mother-in-law, please let me see Miss! " The man''s strength was unparalleled, immediately shaking off the servants. His true feelings couldn''t help but cause everyone to believe him.


    What''s the matter with a good man coming all the way here to spread rumors? Furthermore, they were all very curious about what was going on. Was this man really in love with Miss Feng? The two of them were secretly learning from each other? This meant that this matter was going to be interesting! At this time, a person stood out from the crowd and said, "Madame Feng, I see that this young lad is not lying, why don''t we call out the other girls to confront him. Now that things have come to this, for the sake of our reputations, we should clear up this matter first. "


    "Yeah, yeah ¡­" For the sake of our daughter''s reputation, we should clear this matter up first. "


    "That''s right, that''s right. We have to make this matter clear. If we don''t make it clear that a lady''s family is being humiliated like this, she won''t have a good reputation even if she were to be married off!"


    Everyone started talking at once, and the young man lowered his head and revealed a proud smile! Madame Feng was in a dilemma now. If she were to execute this man, all sorts of rumors would spread out. If she did not deal with him, this young man had a hoodlum look on his face, who knows what he would do!


    At this time, the Madame Feng sneered: "Good!" Saying that, she called for Feng Ru Jun. When she turned around, she discovered that there were a lot of people standing behind him. They were all just there to watch the show, and of course they despised him ¡­


    Not long later, the pale Feng Ru Jun appeared, and she spoke with teary voice the moment she appeared: "Who are you, why are you slandering me for my good name? Who was the one who ordered you? "Normally, I would be a bit arrogant, but if anyone is dissatisfied, then just say so. I will definitely change the course of events, but this really makes my heart ache!"


    Madame Feng immediately comforted his daughter, and looked at the young man with loathing: "My daughter is the dignified Feng Family''s direct descendant, you, she naturally doesn''t like her! Speak, who instigated you to frame my daughter''s good name! "


    The man was extremely anxious. This woman was truly intelligent. Hmph! But the truth is the truth. No matter how much you try to cover it up, it still exists. That man immediately said, "I know I''m not good enough for you, but I really miss you!" I''ve been sleeping and eating with you ever since we parted at the Temple of Puda! I can''t wait to see you and cry in my heart. "


    Feng Ru Jun was a girl, and his face flushed from embarrassment: "You scolded people! You, you''re not even looking at yourself in the mirror, how could I, Feng Ru Jun, set my eyes on someone like you? Even if I don''t marry in my entire life, I won''t marry you. Don''t you dare spout nonsense here. "


    The man jumped up in anger and said, "I knew you wouldn''t admit it! Today, I have specially come to the Pu Tuo Temple to find the person as a witness! " A small Sha Mi walked out from the crowd, and that small Sha Mi was the person who brought Feng Ru Jun to the side room. Feng Ru Jun did not dare to breathe too loudly, and stared at him fiercely.


    Little Shamei''s face turned a little unnatural as she looked at him. She asked with folded arms, "How has Benefactor Feng Ru Jun been recently?"


    Feng Ru Jun didn''t know how to reply. If she replied him, wouldn''t that mean that he had gone to the Pu Tuo Temple? If he didn''t answer, many people would have known about him back then ¡­ After hesitating for a moment, the Madame Feng said: "A sect leader does not use words. You are a clan leader. If you lie, Buddha will blame you. She wants you to go to hell."


    Little Shame''s expression changed as he remained silent. The man said, "Let me ask you something. Did you hear anything from the door that day?" This little Shami had already been chased out by the Pu Tuo Temple. Not long after Feng Ru Jun''s incident passed, someone found out about his theft and reported it to the host.


    As such, the Madame Feng said, "No need to use words, you are a family member. If you lie, Buddha will blame you, and make you go to hell." This sentence was no longer useful to him, so she continued: "That day, Benefactor Feng Ru Jun allowed me to bring her to the other rooms, saying that she was tired and wanted to rest! About two hours later, I was about to ask her what she needed, when I heard that there were men and women in the room ¡­ "Amitabha, sin..."


    "You''re slandering us, you''re a spendthrift! You will go to hell! " Feng Ru Jun''s face was pale white, pointing at little Sha Mi, he was about to beat him to death! Madame Feng was also very angry, she laughed coldly: "I never thought that the great Pu Tuo Temple would have a family member like you, it is truly shameless."


    Little Sha Mi laughed coldly, "Benefactor Feng Ru Jun, I am only saying the truth! As for the reason why he did not lie, it will be up to himself. "


    The man fell to his knees again: "Mother, Miss, I was infatuated with you in vain. I was willing to work hard for you, but who would have thought that in the end, I would be played around by you! Since this is the case today, let us tear apart our pride! On Feng Ru Jun''s chest, there was a birthmark the shape of a Plum Blossom, and on the right side of his butt, there was a large black mole ¡­ "


    This time, Madame Feng completely believed what the man said, because she was not lying at all! She looked at her daughter in a daze. What ¡­ what was going on? Could it be that this man had tainted his daughter''s innocence, and the child in her womb was also his? At this time ¡­ The young man said, "Today, my fate with the Great Miss and mine has come to an end ¡­" Saying that, she was about to run into the stone lion, but luckily, someone stopped him in time.


    "I don''t want to live anymore, I don''t want to live anymore ¡­" What''s the point of me living? "No one has any intention at all ¡­" Saying that, the man covered her face and cried in grief!


    "You, you, you bastard!" Feng Ru Jun knew that her reputation was over ¡­ It was all over ¡­ Suddenly, her stomach hurt, and her face contorted from clutching her stomach. Madame Feng saw her and immediately said: "What''s wrong? "What''s wrong?"


    "mother, kill him! He has slandered our daughter''s name! He has slandered our woman''s name!" Feng Ru Jun''s small face turned pale white as she held her stomach while glaring at him. If she had a blade right now, she would definitely go over to kill this ugly and coarse man. It was him, it was him ¡­ It was him ¡­


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Before Madame Feng could say anything, Feng Ru Jun felt a sharp pain in her stomach as a warm current flowed down, shocking her greatly! Suddenly, someone said, "Ah, blood, it''s blood ¡­"


    "It''s a miscarriage, it''s a miscarriage ¡­" He didn''t know whose damned words those were, but Madame Feng wished that he could find them and immediately tear her mouth apart.


    Madame Feng looked down and saw that Feng Ru Jun''s entire body had turned blood-red! She immediately had someone carry someone down and said to the young man, "Beat this person to death. If you kill him, then I''ll be responsible!" This time, it wasn''t the servants who came, but powerful fighters. They all went up to subdue the men. The man shouted, "That''s my child, my child!"


    "Go get a doctor! Get a doctor!" Madame Feng saw that the pain was endless, and his daughter, who had a pale face, was furious and angry at the same time. Feng Ru Jun held mother''s hand and felt the pain in her stomach. She cried: "mother, mother ¡­ "Let me die, let me die ¡­"

 C271

    People who came to watch the show came back one after another. You kept talking about what you saw and heard outside, making you even more surprised: "I didn''t expect Miss Feng to be this kind of person. Madame Feng is really a good teacher."


    "That''s right, if she is my daughter, then I will definitely beat her to death. I would really be shaming the family."


    "Can''t you see what a Madame Feng treasure looks like? Miss Feng was her precious baby! "If she wasn''t so pampered, how could she have done such a shameless thing?"


    "I heard that Miss Feng has a bad reputation in the Northwest and had her marriage annulled!"


    "Needless to say, it''s definitely because his style is not good enough for him!"


    Everyone already knew about most of the things that happened outside, they were not related to the Feng Family just as if they were watching a play. However, Prince Rong''s identity was different, his face was dark and flushed red.


    "Bring Madame Feng and Miss Feng back to your room to rest, then find a doctor." He gritted his teeth.


    "Yes." The servant did not dare to look at his master''s face and quickly retreated.


    "Come, everyone, eat and drink well ¡­" Prince Rong raised his wine cup and forced out a smile. After saying a few polite words, he finished it in one gulp.


    Everyone naturally wanted to buy Prince Rong''s face, and as if nothing had happened, it became lively once more.


    Zhang Cui Lan quickly glanced at Xi Jiu Er. Was this what he meant by it being lively? After this year, the Feng Family''s Miss can forget about being human again. Although she knew that his personality had changed, she never thought that it would become so cold-blooded and heartless.


    "You arranged it?" Feng Qing Cheng came over and whispered.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed, and admitted it.


    When the banquet was approaching its conclusion, a well-dressed Madame hurried over and hurriedly said to the Prince Rong: "I was rude to you and came late. Please forgive me."


    "So it''s the Kim. I wonder why she came so late?" Prince Rong smiled without showing any signs of anger, with a smile on her face. She then glanced at Feng Qingcheng. Seeing the latter''s dazed expression, she smiled in satisfaction. The more she thought about it, the happier she became.


    When Kim came here, she was in a hurry, and upon hearing Prince Rong not blaming him, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and laughed: "On the way here, I ran into a girl, who was being bullied by evil people! I was kind enough to save her, and that delayed me. "


    "So it''s about saving someone''s life. Kim really has a heart of a Bodhisattva." The Prince Rong praised, and immediately received his approval. Kim was famous for being kind. If there was any difficulty in finding her, as long as he could help her, she would definitely lend her a helping hand. As such, the people of Kim were on good terms with each other, and there were almost no enemies.


    "I find that woman quite pitiful. After asking, I realized that she had lost her memory, but I don''t know who her family is. I wanted to let her stay with me for a while and slowly search for her family. " Perhaps it was because he had been believing in the Buddha all year round, but the Kim was kind and kind, with a friendly smile on his face, making him seem very easy to talk to.


    "Is it this girl?" Prince Rong''s gaze moved to the trembling body behind Kim. Probably because he was afraid, he hid that tiny body behind Kim.


    Prince Rong smiled, and said gently: "Don''t be afraid, this lady. Kim is a good person, if you follow her in the future, she won''t let you suffer." He then turned around and said to Kim: "If Kim needs anything, feel free to ask."


    "Thank you, Prince Rong." Kim gently pulled the lady behind him, as if she was his own daughter, and brought her down to comb her hair.


    "Fourth brother, what''s wrong?" Do you know this girl? " Seeing Feng Qing Cheng staring at the figure that was slowly leaving, Prince Rong was overjoyed, as he had finally taken the bait.


    "I don''t know him." Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently, concealing her taste, he took a sip of the wine, choking on her saliva.


    "I thought you knew her!" Prince Rong laughed and continued to drink her wine, occasionally glancing at Feng Qing Cheng, her smile growing bigger.


    Xi Jiu Er played with the teacup in her hands. The moment the woman behind Kim appeared, she noticed that she was actually 80% similar to her, and her figure was about the same. Could there be two people so similar in this world? It is not related by blood... Could it be a disguise?


    Glancing at the Prince Rong, Xi Jiu Er felt reassured, and then looked at Feng Qing Cheng who seemed to have lost his soul. For some reason, a sense of sorrow welled up in his heart: Was he even acting towards me? He quickly cast aside this thought. He had seen too many men mercilessly fight with women, so he didn''t believe in men at all.


    If he were to marry one day, he could only have his own wife!


    Not long after, the Kim led the young lady with a pretty face out of everyone''s line of sight. Xi Jiu Er was shocked. The image was too similar, it was exactly the same as herself.


    "Oh, what a pretty girl!"


    "I think it''s a Miss from another clan!"


    "Meeting the Kim, her luck is really good."


    "Eh? "Why does it look so familiar!" The voice wasn''t loud, but it was loud enough for people to hear clearly. Someone immediately asked, "Now that I think about it, I can''t remember."


    Then, a surprising scene appeared. The young girl looked left and right, then suddenly stared at the fourth prince. Without saying anything further, she rushed forward and tugged at her sleeve. "Save me. I''m so scared ¡­"


    After Feng Qing Cheng returned, he became the target of many young girls who hadn''t left the pavilion yet. There were many people who wanted to marry him. The sympathy in everyone''s eyes earlier immediately turned into jealousy and anger. This woman was truly too excessive! She actually dared to hold back the fourth prince! They had not even touched their robes.


    "Isn''t this disrespectful!"


    "That''s right. Bringing a man in public is too shameless. I wonder how his parents raised him!"


    "Maybe she is the second Miss Feng."


    "This fourth prince is really something. Why isn''t he pushing him away and hugging him instead ¡­"


    Feng Qing Cheng acted as if he did not hear the sour words of the girls. He stared blankly at the girl beside him in a daze, and unexpectedly said with an incomparably gentle voice, "I''m not afraid, I''m not afraid. The bad guys have already been chased away." As if he was coaxing a child, he carefully tidied up the hair in front of her forehead. His actions were gentle and gentle.


    Xi Jiu Er felt his heart being tugged by a big hand, it was stuffy and painful at the same time. He had once treated her with such gentleness, as if she was the most precious treasure in the world. Now, he was showing gentleness to another girl as well ¡­


    The air around him seemed to thicken, and his breathing began to quicken. Even his eyes began to feel uncomfortable. Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath and calmed himself down, but the moment he turned his head and saw the scene before him, he felt very uncomfortable.

 C272

    Don''t think about anything


    "So scared ¡­" Her frail body, her helpless voice, and her pale little face were filled with pity. Her eyes were filled with mist ¡­


    He had never shown such a pitiful expression before. It was as if other than being expressionless, she wasn''t shy, angry, or jealous. She didn''t even know how to act like a spoiled child ¡­ Probably very boring!


    He took a sip of tea and nearly choked on his throat.


    "Haha, Kim, I think this young lady and Fourth Brother are fated to be together, so why don''t you give it to Fourth Brother!" Prince Rong laughed and said.


    "This ¡­" Kim looked at Feng Qing Cheng: "You have to ask the Fourth Prince for this!"


    "Then leave it to me!" Feng Qing Cheng''s voice had unknowingly become much gentler, with even a smile on her face. Ye Zichen stared at the girl beside him with a spoilt look.


    "I''ll have to trouble you, Fourth Prince." Kim said.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s expression became a nightmare that Xi Jiu Er would not be able to let go of for many years.


    "Just what is the relationship between this girl and the fourth prince? Why is she so intimate with her?"


    "I really can''t tell. He doesn''t look much, but his ability to seduce people is quite good."


    "Hmph, the fourth prince is just trying to be fresh for the time being. Once this freshness passes ¡­"


    When Xi Jiu Er looked again, the girl was already drowsy, but she was still holding onto her sleeves tightly, looking like she wanted to fall in love. Feng Qing Cheng hugged her waist, pulled her into his arms and left.


    Prince Rong laughed: "Haha, looks like my Fourth Brother has fallen for this lady. She sure is blessed."


    The thousand gold Miss were all very jealous of him, they only hoped that she was being gentle with them.


    When Feng Qing Cheng left, he did not even look back once. Even with a glance, he felt a little better, but there was no sign of him. None...


    ''Kacha! ''She heard the sound of the lock in her heart ¡­ The purpose of Prince Rong''s birthday banquet had already been achieved, but the banquet felt boring, so he went to the backyard to check on Miss Feng''s condition.


    From afar, he heard Madam Feng angrily shout, "Bitch, I will kill her!" Along with it were the sobbing sounds of a young girl.


    Although the Feng Family wouldn''t get into trouble, Feng Qing Cheng accepted them. His heart was a little better now. Tie Qing pushed the door open and entered with a pale face. When the servants saw his expression, they immediately went silent, not daring to breathe too loudly.


    "What the hell is going on?" The moment they entered the house, the fire in their hearts was suppressed. The Feng Family still had a use for them, they couldn''t afford to lose decorum at a time like this.


    "Prince Rong, you must avenge Ru Jun. all of today''s matters are the doing of that little bitch Zhang Cui Lan, wuu ¡­ Right now, I am just like Jun who has a daughter. If she has anything good happen to me, what should I do?! " Madame Feng covered her face without feeling sad.


    "Cousin, you have to take revenge for me. I don''t know who else to look for but you ¡­" I want that little bitch Zhang Cui Lan to die without a burial ground... " She wanted to die, but she could not die in vain. Zhang Cui Lan had to suffer the same pain as her!


    "What exactly is going on? How is it related to Zhang Cui Lan? " Prince Rong asked patiently, somewhat interested. If it was really related to Zhang Cui Lan, it would save him a lot of trouble.


    Hearing Madame Feng''s words, she suddenly felt powerless. No wonder the Song Family kicked them out.


    "For this reason, you decided that she was the culprit. Where is the evidence? What do you want me to do without evidence?" The Song Family is not a small government official who can be manipulated by me? " Prince Rong really accepted the mother and daughter duo''s IQ. To be able to deduce that it was four just because of one slap, it was too reckless.


    "Who else but her?" Feng Ru Jun lost control and said, "Didn''t you catch that man? The mastermind behind the torture will definitely be found! "


    "Right, if it wasn''t Zhang Cui Lan, then it must be you!" Seeing that the Prince Rong did not have much interest, as if he was unwilling to pursue the matter, Madame Feng immediately changed her explanation.


    Sure enough, the Prince Rong was interested. This was a matter that concerned his own interests.


    "Prince, think about it. This time, our main purpose is to marry the Song Family. If we are unable to get married, who do you think will be the biggest beneficiary?" If Prince Rong did not care about this, what would she do?


    "Fourth Bro!" Prince Rong blurted out, the two of them had already started fighting and they could not let Fourth Bro get lucky. Suddenly, a thought flashed across his mind. Perhaps this was really the doing of the Zhang Clan''s woman, and it might even have been ordered by Fourth Brother. Could Fourth Brother and the Song Family be together already? The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed!


    "Leave this matter to me, I will naturally investigate thoroughly." During this period of time, just stay here and don''t cause trouble for me! " The Prince Rong stood up and left.


    "mother ¡­"


    "Don''t worry, with Prince Rong''s interference, that little bitch won''t be able to escape." Madame Feng comforted her daughter: "Sleep for a while!"


    As he relaxed, he felt a wave of fatigue hit him, causing him to unconsciously fall asleep.


    "Sigh ¡­" Madame Feng''s face was full of worry. What should I do in the future? How am I supposed to find my wife?


    On the way back, Zhang Cui Lan asked softly, "Big Brother? Aren''t you happy? "


    "Why do you ask?" Xi Jiu Er came back to reality with a smile on his face.


    "I feel like you''re unhappy ¡­"


    "He must be tired!" Xi Jiu Er was not willing to talk more, she lifted the curtain and looked out, in her mind she could not help but think of the scene where Feng Qing Cheng and the lady got along, a suffocating feeling spread throughout his body.


    "Big brother, are you alright?"


    "Eh?" Following Zhang Cui Lan''s line of sight, she saw that the flower on the curtain of the carriage had become twisted in her hands, while her hands were holding onto it tightly. She quickly retracted her hand and smiled, "It''s fine, I was thinking about something else."


    The horse carriage was quickly able to save the Song Mansion. Xi Jiu Er got off the carriage and rushed back into the house. Why was she crying? She felt that she should do something now. Otherwise, if she kept thinking about Feng Qing Cheng and that girl, even if she wasn''t crazy, her heart would feel terrible.


    After taking a deep breath to adjust his state of mind and dressing himself up, Xi Jiu Er went out to look for Madame Song. Madame Song was in the garden messing with chrysanthemums when she saw a person walking over from afar. She smiled and said, "Go slowly, why are you walking so fast?"


    "mother, I want to open a medicine shop." Xi Jiu Er supported her by the hand and went to the side to rest. "My son doesn''t have an official position, so he wanted to go do business."


    Madame Song glanced at his red eyes and guessed that the people at the banquet were talking nonsense again, causing her son to be sad. Her voice was gentle and filled with love, "You''re not a doctor, why are you buying medicinal herbs? The most important thing is to marry a daughter-in-law back to mother and have a big fat grandson. "


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips and said: "I''m still a child, aren''t you afraid that I''m not a good father when I give birth to a child?" Why are you still thinking about your grandson?

 C273

    "Who was born to be a father, and wasn''t it slowly discovered? Once you have a child, you will know the kindness of your parents, and you will also understand a lot. Madame Song patted his hand. She only wanted her son to quickly mature, she couldn''t possibly take care of him for the rest of his life, right?


    "Aiya, let''s not talk about this for now." Xi Jiu Er was impatient, she pulled Madame Song and spoke for a while, then revealed what had happened today, causing him to exclaim in shock, "Truly ¡­" Madame Song did not say anything, but from her expression, one could tell what she meant.


    After bidding farewell to Madame Song, Zhang Cui Lan came to find her. It seemed that Second Young Master Cao could no longer sit still and wanted to meet her. Xi Jiu Er stared at the slip and came up with a plan, then said: "Let''s go, we will go find Young Master Cao."


    "Why are you looking for Young Master Cao?" Zhang Cui Lan did not understand.


    "This bastard brother of his did such a thing. This sworn brother of mine will speak up for his sister, so as to not get harassed by the lecher, isn''t that right?" Xi Jiu Er gestured for Zhang Cui Lan to cover her ears and whispered a few words into her ear. Zhang Cui Lan''s heart was shocked and she stared at Xi Jiu Er in shock.


    "Let''s go." Xi Jiu Er returned to her room and changed into a profound robe, revealing her jade-like skin and her graceful figure. Zhang Cui Lan exclaimed in surprise, she was truly a jade-like person, it was a pity that she couldn''t marry him.


    In the end, when Cao Nan left the Prince Rong Palace, he was ruthlessly scolded by the Prince Rong. Seeing the Feng Family doing such a good deed, he was too ashamed to say it.


    Cao Nan had a face full of grievance: "This humble subject also did not know that Miss Feng could be so unruly, I had only heard about it before."


    "Sigh ¡­" "Forget it, forget it ¡­" Prince Rong was also surprised that Madame Feng would actually teach her daughter such a lesson, and was even more so named as Cao Nan. Thus, he had a headache: "Leave this matter to you, look who actually framed the Feng Family mother and daughter, and came after me."


    "Yes." Cao Nan''s expression became serious.


    "Go back." Prince Rong rubbed his nose, extremely tired.


    On the way back, the carriage was stopped by someone. Raising the curtain, he said in a daze, "So it''s Brother Song Tian, you are ¡­"


    "Brother Cao Nan, please lend a hand." Xi Jiu Er''s face was gloomy, seeing that shshewas secretly angry, she walked into the teahouse first. Cao Nan followed along puzzledly, his eyes swept across Zhang Cui Lan as he tried to guess what was going on.


    "Pa ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er slapped the letter that revealed her bones right before Cao Nan''s eyes. Cao Nan trembled, he did not realize that a weak, human-like person would be so angry.


    Cao Nan opened the letter and looked. Good boy, the first two words'' my love ''truly gave him a fright, it was a very familiar title, and the dog crawling type handwriting was also very familiar ¡­ Who else could it be other than that good-for-nothing brother of his?


    Cao Nan looked at it and immediately felt embarrassed. He could recite all the words in the letter by heart! I used to use this chapter to trick other girls... But he had added a bit of a poem!


    "Look at what your good brother did, Cao Nan, what do you say!" Xi Jiu Er''s eyes widened, and actually gave birth to a sense of elegance, "If this matter were to be spread out, how would my Sister-in-law still be able to conduct itself?"


    Seeing Xi Jiu Er defending Zhang Cui Lan like this, Cao Nan was elated in her heart. Marrying Zhang Cui Lan to the Cao family would always say that the girl had married into a husband, and she would definitely teach Zhang Cui Lan a lesson for the Cao family.


    "It''s really my fault, I will bring my younger brother to apologize to Miss Zhang. It''s all because of the Cao family''s steward, Miss Zhang will forgive this little bastard. I definitely won''t let him do such a shameful thing in the future." Cao Nan stood up and bowed to Zhang Cui Lan. Zhang Cui Lan dodged to the side and remained silent.


    "In the future, I hope that you can discipline the Second Young Master Cao. If my Sister-in-law''s reputation is tarnished, how can I marry you in the future? Today, you have also seen the scandal caused by Miss Feng. My eldest brother and sister in the morning, my younger brother and sister in the afternoon, mother has adopted Cui Lan as her adopted daughter. I will treat her as my own sister and will not let her be sloppy. The sincerity of Xi Jiu Er''s words moved Zhang Cui Lan''s heart. In truth, he did not know that this was merely made by Xi Jiu Er for Cao Nan to see.


    Cao Nan quickly said: "Yes yes, I will properly teach him a lesson when we get back."


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er was satisfied: "Cui Lan, let''s go."


    Zhang Cui Lan silently followed behind Xi Jiu Er. Cao Nan was startled, and before she could even finish his sentence! If he wanted to say it, she might as well marry Zhang Cui Lan to his brother. The other party''s attitude was a little doubtful. Could it be that she guessed wrongly?


    "Cui Lan, wait outside ¡­" Xi Jiu Er instructed, and turned back to glance at him: "I forgot to take my things." It was a cloak.


    "That Brother Song Tian... "There''s something I want to tell you ¡­" Cao Nan seized this opportunity and was naturally not willing to let it go, as she stammered: "Look ¡­ Why don''t you marry the Miss Zhang into our Cao family ¡­ "


    "Marry you?" Xi Jiu Er raised her brows, "You''re quite suitable."


    "Huh?" Cao Nan was startled, and immediately replied: "Marry my brother."


    Xi Jiu Er had a stupefied expression on her face, "I didn''t hear it wrong, did I?" She said while laughing slowly: "Young Master Cao is really joking. If I wasn''t the one who said it wasn''t good, you are his big brother, so it''s natural that you know what his character is. Cui Lan is my sister, so I want to find a good home for her.


    "Brother Song Tian, I''m the eldest son of the Cao Mansion, and we have already decided to marry each other. Cao Nan immediately laughed: "I was just joking, you don''t need to take it seriously. Looking at the knowledgeable man in the Miss Zhang and knowing how to advance and retreat, if I can marry my brother, I can definitely control him well. I was selfish, selfish. "


    Drink, engaged? Xi Jiu Er had asked around before, that Cao Nan was not engaged, but her parents once joked about a marriage, and the girl was only ten years old. With this excuse, Xi Jiu Er laughed as if nothing had happened, "I was just casually saying that Brother Cao Nan is not someone that my Sister-in-law can easily touch, I am well aware of this fact."


    Uh, no matter how I hear it, it sounds like a joke? But seeing that the other person was acting so serious, could it be that he was being overly concerned?


    "Little Young Master, not good, Miss was ¡­ was taken away by Second Young Master Cao ¡­" The servant girl, Yu Huan, pushed open the door and said anxiously.


    "What?" The two of them spoke at the same time.


    "Alright, if anything happens to my Sister-in-law, I will make sure the Cao family gives me an explanation!" Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned her head and stared straight at Cao Nan, she took the cape and turned to leave: "Yu Huan, let''s go!"

 C274

    "Brother Song, I''ll go with you." Cao Nan followed behind Xi Jiu Er and walked shoulder to shoulder. Seeing the other party''s pale face, he immediately said: "I think I was just messing around with my little brother, don''t worry."


    Xi Jiu Er rolled her eyes at him. Cao Nan rubbed her nose, Alright, she wouldn''t believe this kind of lie. The two of them got into the carriage and chased after Cao Qing. Cao Nan felt goosebumps all over her body, as if he was some kind of filth that caused people to vomit.


    The more they walked, the uglier their faces became. He saw that the surroundings were a wasteland, with empty houses everywhere. There was a carriage somewhere, and the coachman was on the lookout. He saw Cao Nan from afar and was about to report to his master, but he was intimidated by Cao Qing''s gaze.


    "What about the second Young Master? Where is he? " Cao Nan asked anxiously, secretly hoping that this time, Cao Qing would be able to cook the cooked rice, so that the matter of pacifying the Song Family would be resolved. If a woman lost her virginity, did she still intend to marry again?


    "Yes, it''s inside." Cao Qing was afraid of his big brother, so the servant was naturally afraid of him as well. As soon as he finished his sentence, a figure ran over from the side. Cao Nan looked at Xi Jiu Er''s back and asked softly: "How long have you been gone?"


    Eh? Wasn''t the Great Young Master very angry just now? Why didn''t he seem angry now? He truly didn''t understand, but he grew more cautious as he said, "He''s been gone for around fifteen minutes."


    A quarter of an hour? Cao Qing this kind of veteran was probably already accomplished, the big rock in his heart also dropped to the ground, he immediately went to find someone. Outside, the autumn wind was breezing, causing people to shiver. The servant looked at the sky, it seemed that winter had come very late ¡­ He blew on the air and followed the master who only cared about women. He was truly tired of living.


    After Cao Qing wrote a love letter that he thought would move the girl to tears, he waited happily for the beauty to arrive. Waiting left and right, waiting right and left, waiting left and right. The beauty didn''t come, but gave her a reply instead. On top of the letter, there was only one sentence: Please don''t let Second Young Master Cao bother me anymore. He was ruthlessly determined just like that.


    Who, who is Cao Qing? The son of the Prime Minister Cao, the beloved son of the Prime Minister Cao. Many women wanted to marry him. Many women would love to pounce on him the moment they saw that love letter. This woman was unmoved? I''m so pissed off at him ¡­


    A faint fragrance came from the letter. As he leaned over to smell it, he could feel his body and mind undulating. A ball of fire was spreading all over his body. Cao Qing did not think too much into it. He only thought that it was a woman who loved to burn incense, and that she had even gotten infected with a letter. As he gazed at the graceful writing on the paper, those fire arches began to emerge elegantly. Naturally, they were all those dishonest things. He mused to himself that this little girl wanted to refuse him but also wanted to welcome him. Otherwise, why would she reject him?


    "Why hasn''t your Miss come to see me?" Cao Qing said angrily, this was an insult to his charisma, he had seen countless girls, and countless girls had fallen in his hands, but going to a Miss Zhang would not even put him in her eyes, what was wrong with that.


    The person who delivered the letter was Yu Huan. She followed Xi Jiu Er''s words and said, "Miss and Little Young Master are going to the Fragrant Sky Tower ¡­" With that, he said his goodbyes and left. This jade ring had some charm, with every movement it gave off a graceful and elegant feeling, causing Cao Qing''s saliva to quickly gush out of his mouth. Once Zhang Cui Lan was tamed, her maids would naturally have the chance to enjoy it.


    Fragrant Sky Tower? Cao Qing stared at the letter in his hand and ordered the servant, "Let''s go to the Fragrant Sky Tower." He felt uncomfortable all over, only feeling his body heat up.


    When he went to the Fragrant Sky Tower, he saw Zhang Cui Lan''s cute little beauty right in front of the Fragrant Sky Tower''s entrance. She directly dragged him out when her head got hot, and the attendant who drove the carriage, Sikong, was no longer weird as he followed his master''s instructions to go to the outskirts.


    "Second Young Master Cao? "You, what are you trying to do?" Zhang Cui Lan''s face was filled with shock, as she stared at Cao Qing like he was a monster. She had heard rumors about his savagery, but she didn''t think that it would reach the stage where he would kidnap people on the streets. A small porcelain bottle was held in his hand, staring at Cao Qing''s every move.


    "Little beauty ¡­" Ah no, it''s the Miss Zhang, I know that doing this would offend you, but I think you must be thinking hard, if you can''t see me, you will feel uncomfortable, so isn''t this ¡­ Miss Zhang, I really like you. You, just follow me. " Cao Qing was a man who was more amicable than his father. There were many things like having the heavens serve as the bed for one''s master.


    "You, you pervert." Zhang Cui Lan bit her lips as she cursed, lifting up the curtain to look, and started screaming in vain: "What kind of place is this, for you to bring me to this place ¡­. What do you want?"


    Cao Qing was used to their panicked expressions, so he didn''t have the time to comfort Zhang Cui Lan right now. He could only think that after taking care of her on the spot, she would lose her body and become his person. At that time, if he didn''t want her, wouldn''t she just follow him?


    Zhang Cui Lan saw that his face was getting more and more dry, and tightly held the small bottle in his hand. Once they had reached their destination, Cao Qing impatiently pulled Zhang Cui Lan down from the carriage and ordered the attendant to wait far away.


    "Let me go, let go!" Zhang Cui Lan could not get rid of him, and staggered along behind Cao Qing. She looked at the surrounding desolation and cowardice: "Second Young Master Cao, I beg you, please spare me."


    "Bypass you? How can I, Cao Qing, let go of a woman that I have my eyes on? " Cao Qing''s short and fat body was rather nimble, as he dragged his arm while he was in pain. It turned out that when Cao Qing learnt some martial arts, he was just imitating the doings of a tiger, but his foundation was actually not bad. Would a pampered young master who was immersed in the fragrance of women be willing to put up with hard work to learn martial arts?


    Of course there was a reason behind it, the lecherous Cao Qing had once been beaten black and blue by someone, and could not get out of bed for two months. Prime Minister Cao doted on his son and went to find a master to teach him martial arts.


    This Cao Qing was familiar with the route and came to a different world. The place was cleaned and had beds and blankets placed on top of it, which was where Cao Qing used to collect flowers. How could Zhang Cui Lan not understand? It seemed that Cao Qing had done this a few times already, and it was not the first time.


    Arriving at the dilapidated house, Cao Qing could not wait and grabbed Zhang Cui Lan, revealing a mischievous smile: "Little beauty, come, Young Master will make you happy." From his point of view, Zhang Cui Lan was just a weak girl who was helpless, allowing him to do whatever she wanted.


    His vision blurred and he felt as if saliva was spraying onto his face. Cao Qing didn''t smell any fishy at all, but rather, seemed like the most ordinary kind of water. Doubt arose in his heart. This little girl was interesting. She brought water with her when she was free? He could not help but ask curiously, "What is this?"


    "Holy water to ward off evil in the temple." Zhang Cui Lan said in all seriousness: "Second Young Master Cao, you''ve been possessed. This can help you ward off evil."


    Cao Qing pursed his lips, an evil smile on his pig-faced face was truly as disgusting as it could get, Cao Qing guessed that Zhang Cui pressed on his face to make him think of something, but he spent half a day without doing anything, it was truly a waste of his hard work.

 C275

    Cao Qing extended his hand out towards Zhang Cui Lan, and a cold light flashed as he took out a dagger and pointed it at his neck, causing Cao Qing to immediately stand motionlessly: "You ¡­."


    "Second Young Master Cao, if you want to scheme against this woman today, I''ll let you see my death." Zhang Cui Lan''s attitude did not seem like she was lying: "If this gets out, I''m afraid I will not have the face to live anymore, I might as well die."


    "Alright." Cao Qing shouted loudly. Zhang Cui Lan didn''t know why he screamed so loudly, but her hand trembled and she nearly cut herself. The more unyielding and unyielding a beauty was, the more he would have the desire to conquer her.


    "Are you threatening me?" Cao Qing snickered.


    "I wouldn''t dare to threaten you, but I''m just telling Young Master Cao a fact." Zhang Cui Lan took a deep breath, looked coldly at Second Young Master Cao, and stubbornly kept quiet.


    "Stop!" With a shout, the black shadow blocked Zhang Cui Lan''s life, the cold and expressionless delicate face had a white sheen to it, and her face was not exceptional at all, but only had a pair of blazing eyes: "Second Young Master Cao is so imposing, stealing my Sister-in-law in public, I''m afraid that tomorrow''s news will spread like wildfire! How are you going to explain that? "


    "Oh, so it''s Young Master Song. I was wondering who it was." Second Young Master Cao did not even put the other party in his eyes. He waved his hand and chuckled: "I was just joking with Sister Ri, why would I take it seriously?" Unfortunately, the duck flew away.


    "You!" Xi Jiu Er fumed and said to the person behind Cao Qing: "Young Master Cao, you must give me an explanation for this matter. If it wasn''t for my Sister-in-law threatening us with her life, I''m afraid that the scene that I am seeing would have become unbearable to look at."


    Cao Qing''s eyes suddenly widened, when he turned his head, he saw that it was indeed his brother, and it was not that the other party was trying to trick him, but that slap instead came flying over, hitting him so hard that he did not even dare make a sound, as though he was a little kitten obediently: "Big brother ¡­"


    "Bastard thing, did you read those holy books into the stomach of a dog? Look at what you have done today, hurry up and apologize to Miss Zhang. " Cao Nan couldn''t help but admire Miss Zhang, she was a loyal and unyielding woman.


    "Miss Zhang, I''m sorry, it''s all my fault, please forgive me ¡­" Cao Qing opened her mouth and started talking. This was something he probably said frequently.


    Zhang Cui Lan hid behind Xi Jiu Er and sobbed, her voice was neither loud nor low, as she said with endless grievance, "Big Brother, what should we do? It would be better to die. "


    "What do you mean ''not dying''? Live well for me." With Big Brother and Young Master Cao standing up for you today, I won''t let you suffer any grievances. " Xi Jiu Er shouted as she turned her head and stared at Cao Nan, "Young Master Cao, you have to give me a way to settle this matter. If someone from the Second Young Master Cao kidnapped my Sister-in-law, who would believe that she is innocent? I also want to find a good family to marry her. Now tell me, what do I, Sister-in-law, do in the future? "


    "Brother Song, please don''t be angry. There''s a way ¡­" Glancing at his little brother who was fine with nothing, he bit the corner of his mouth and said: "How about we marry Miss Zhang to my little brother?"


    "No!" Xi Jiu Er rejected bluntly, "Everyone knows what kind of virtue your little brother has. Didn''t my sister get married and wash her face with tears everyday? to live like a widow? "


    Cao Qing did not like hearing that, so he immediately replied: "Hey, hey, hello, Song Tian is so virtuous and good, why don''t you go outside and find out what''s going on, you ¡­"


    "Shut up!" Cao Nan bellowed: "You have no right to speak about this."


    Cao Qing immediately nodded and bowed, "Yes." He then glared at Xi Jiu Er, who laughed coldly: "You only said that I, a popinjay, am lazy, and so on, but you have one more reason than me. That''s all you can do for me. "


    Cao Qing''s veins were popping out as he wanted to retort, but he was suppressed by a line of sight, so he immediately became quiet. Cao Nan''s voice came from above: "Brother Song, is there anything fake? Didn''t you take advantage of a good woman? You don''t have a natural disposition to be dissolute? " Although these words were meant to scold Cao Qing, they also agreed with Xi Jiu Er''s words of "when people say that I, as a popinjay, am lazy and so on".


    Xi Jiu Er pretended not to know and waited for Cao Nan to say what he wanted to hear. Pulling Zhang Cui Lan''s hand, she pinched her fingers together. Zhang Cui Lan immediately said, "Cui Lan having a brother like you towards me is the fortune of a senior. Go back and tell mother ¡­"


    Cao Nan hurriedly said after hearing: "Brother Song Tian, Miss Zhang, although my little brother is unconventional in his actions, if I were to take him as my wife, I will definitely take good care of him.


    "Haha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er laughed strangely, then Cao Qing became unhappy when he heard that he was going to marry Zhang Cui Lan, he did not want to get married so early, okay? However, Xi Jiu Er''s laughter angered him. You don''t want to marry me, but you don''t want to marry me? But since Cao Nan was by his side, he didn''t dare to pant too much, and was as obedient as a servant.


    "Now that things have progressed to this point, it will not be easy for Miss Zhang to say her own name. Brother Song Tian, I promise you, when we get married again, I will definitely discipline him properly and make him a good husband. " Cao Nan''s expression was sincere and his attitude was also very sincere. Did you move Xi Jiu Er?


    Xi Jiu Er treated this as a difficult task, and gave Zhang Cui Lan a comforting look: "Alright, but I have a condition. The eldest son and eldest daughter of Second Young Master Cao must all come from my Sister-in-law."


    "Alright." Cao Nan was not afraid that the other party would not mention his request, the more requests the better, so he agreed readily. Cao Qing was stunned, this, this, his marriage was decided just like that? No way ¡­ He still didn''t want to get married, but unfortunately he didn''t dare to say it to Cao Nan.


    On the way back, Zhang Cui Lan finally understood why Xi Jiu Er made such an unnecessary move. The Second Young Master Cao was new to himself now. If Cao Nan knew that the two of them were to eat raw rice and become ripe rice, even if he agreed, the female side''s imposing manner would probably weaken.


    Firstly, his actions today were to let Cao Nan have a higher opinion of him. In the future, if anything happened between Cao Qing and himself, would also help him. Husband reliable sows can climb trees. Furthermore, the arrival of children was more important. After she gave birth to the eldest son and daughter, her status was unshakable ¡­


    "When you go back, kneel in front of mother. Don''t even bother crying, I will tell him everything that happened." The reason was because Zhang Cui Lan had once used medicine on him and crossed the bottom line with him. Zhang Cui Lan marrying no matter who it was, Madame Song would not pay too much attention.


    "Yes." Zhang Cui Lan replied.

 C276

    I hate the pain you give me


    It was as she expected, the Madame Song consoled Zhang Cui Lan and left a few words for his son: "Did you agree to the marriage with Cao family?"


    "mother, things can only go like this, do you want her to be your sister-in-law? No matter what, Cui Lan never married for so many years because of me, I don''t want her lower body to be isolated in the temple. Young Master Cao has already promised me that Cao Qing''s eldest son and eldest daughter will be born from Cui Lan, and with a child by her side and our Song Family as support, her days will not be too difficult. " Xi Jiu Er comforted the Madame Song.


    "Tian, actually ¡­" This has nothing to do with Zhang Cui Lan, but the relationship between our Song and Cao Families ¡­ " Madame Song didn''t know how to respond. In the end, he sighed and said, "Then it''s decided!"


    When he returned home at night, the Madame Song saw that his husband''s expression was dark and asked in concern: "What''s wrong?"


    "The Emperor asked me for my opinion on the northern campaign today. He had the intention of sending me to the north to fight." Song Yun Shan''s face darkened, he turned to look, only to see his wife looking at him worriedly. He squeezed out a smile: The war in the north is tight, it''s not strange for the emperor to have this idea.


    Madame Song only asked: How confident are you in this matter?


    "Eighty percent."


    "When does the imperial edict come out?"


    "In a few days!"


    After a short period of silence, Madame Song told Second Young Master Cao that he was going to become Zhang Cui Lan''s wife. He originally thought that he had a backbone, but now that this matter had occurred, he felt completely exhausted.


    "Don''t worry about this matter, let the Old Lady Zhang handle it, we can just offer some dowry, we don''t care about the others." Song Yun Shan''s method was good. This way, the Song Family could distance themselves from the Cao family.


    "I''ll listen to you!" A trace of a smile appeared in Madame Song''s eyes as she asked her servants to pass the food over.


    After dinner, Song Yun Shan went to look for Xi Jiu Er, and reprimanded the servants: "What are you thinking of doing?" The matter between Zhang Cui Lan and Cao Er Young Master seemed to be weird, thinking and thinking about it, how could she not be involved in this matter? What was her identity? But a spy?


    "Master Song, what do you mean by that?" Xi Jiu Er pretended not to know anything and was confused.


    Song Yun Shan sat down as if he was planning to chat for a long time, minding his own business and poured himself a cup of water to drink. "What is your identity?"


    Song Yun Shan suspected that he was not without reason, his actions had already caused the Song Family to change their direction, and it was because the neutral faction had already participated in the exchange rate competition! If he wanted revenge, he would definitely implicate the Song Family. Why not use this opportunity to reveal his identity?


    After ripping off her mask, the young girl''s delicate and beautiful face emitted a cold and clear light under the candlelight. Her appearance wasn''t exceptional, but her facial features were extremely exquisite. She was even more heroic in disguise, actually a bit more handsome than Song Tian.


    "It''s actually you?! Who exactly are you? " Song Yun Shan opened his eyes wide, as if he had seen a ghost.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, then said: "Master Song saw the lady that looks very similar to me?"


    "Yes, I coincidentally met His Highness the Fourth Prince today. I saw a woman sitting in his carriage, so I took a quick glance ¡­" You are very similar, could it be that you are twin sisters? " Song Yun Shan asked in puzzlement, and doubt rose up in his heart, could it be that the His Highness the Fourth Prince had sent him?


    "My surname is Xi, and I am ranked ninth at home, so my name is Xi Jiu Er! They are not from the Wind Nation! Following that, Xi Jiu Er revealed the enmity between him and his family, and laughed: "I do not intend to change my appearance to that of Young Noble Ling. Who was the one who became a human masked man, but somehow formed a fated relationship between us."


    Song Yun Shan quietly asked, "Are you saying that she thought that your sister had already been burned to death? She never thought that she would become the concubine of the Prime Minister Cao."


    "Yes, I have an irreconcilable hatred with her. If it''s not you who dies, then it''s me. Song Tian''s identity has given me a lot of convenience. If Master Song wants me to be myself, you can have it. It won''t be too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, so I''m not in a hurry. " Xi Jiu Er laughed lightly, making him unable to understand what was going on.


    Song Yun Shan did not directly answer her question, and only furrowed his brows. "Then, who arranged that woman who looks like you? is it the Prince Rong? "


    "His Highness the Fourth Prince knows that the woman''s identity is fake, and that my elder sister had been planted in the Prime Minister Cao Palace by Prince Rong. Cao Nan had long served the Prime Minister Cao, and the Cao family seemed to be neutral on the surface, but in reality, they had long colluded with the Prince Rong." Xi Jiu Er was not surprised at all when she told the information she had learned, as if she had already expected this would happen.


    "You and the fourth prince used to know each other?" Song Yun Shan asked.


    After calming down, Xi Jiu Er replied indifferently, "Yes, he was a doctor before, and my grandfather married me to him after some unforeseen event in the family. After our wedding night, I did not want Xi Wan Feng to be kidnapped, so you know what happened afterwards!"


    "I''ve heard a little about what you did." Song Yun Shan stared at Xi Jiu Er''s face, and laughed: "I even went to heart-nourishing hall to buy medicine."


    Song Yun Shan sighed, and in an instant, he looked as if he had aged several years. His temples had already turned white, and the loneliness in his eyes and helplessness was about to crush Xi Jiu Er. This family will depend on you from now on. "


    Northern support? Xi Jiu Er looked at Song Yun Shan in a daze. Why did she want to go to the north? Why?


    "Maybe it''s because the might of the heavens is difficult to predict, or maybe someone is pushing the tide." Song Yun Shan smiled lightly: "If you want to take revenge, go and take it, you can''t hurt her. Since I, Song Yun Shan, no longer have a son, I am not afraid of no one else. "


    "Master Song is wrong ¡­" Xi Jiu Er''s smile suddenly became brighter, and Song Yun Shan was completely confused. She stood up and bowed towards Song Yun Shan: "Congratulations Master Song, congratulations to Master Song, Madame Song, you are already pregnant."


    "You, what did you say?" Madame Song had not been able to get pregnant for more than ten years, but the doctor said that it would be hard for her body to conceive again. That day, after she drugged the Madame Song, he was found out by Xi Jiu Er and handed over to him to deal with. He hardened her heart and killed the woman, then obtained the shocking news that the child was not his. Thoughtful was an innocent life, so she sent him out to be raised.


    "Madame is pregnant." Xi Jiu Er had already planned to tell Madame Song her true identity once the child was born. Although this was a very cruel thing for Madame Song to do, to have a child that was waiting to be fed her, no matter how sad she was, Madame Song would at least be able to endure it.

 C277

    After being overjoyed, Song Yun Shan was stunned. Why did she not tell him just now? Afraid he would be implicated? Xi Jiu Er saw through the question that he was thinking, "Madame Song doesn''t know that she is pregnant. I only found out about it after knowing the art of ''splattering yellow''."


    "So that''s how it is." Song Yun Shan''s heart was filled with anticipation, this time the journey to the North was definitely going to be successful, his originally lonely eyes once again ignited with the flames of hope. Although Xi Jiu Er was a woman, she did not have any fear in attending important occasions, and now, she had schemed against Prince Rong and Prime Minister Cao. It was normal for a woman to fight in the backyard, but to scheme with men, and also mutually scheme with men with unusual statuses, only harem girls would do that.


    "I have never underestimated you. Since you are with the Fourth Prince, our Song Family will bet on him. "After I go, the Song Family will depend on you, Zhou Xuan. You must pay more attention to everything and not let anyone see that you are a woman." Song Yun Shan knew that it was impossible for him to stay out of this, so he decided to take this gamble.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart grew hot, and she said with a choked of sobs: "Master Song, you can rest assured. Madame Song treats me like her, I am not some ungrateful wolf, I have long been viewed as Jiu Er''s mother, I will put her first, I will not harm her."


    "With these words of yours, I feel at ease." Song Yun Shan was a sincere person, if she met a liar, it was possible that after he left the Song Family, she would fall into her hands and sell the Madame Song to her for money.


    "I will let the Old Lady Zhang handle the Zhang Cui Lan matter, and our Song Family can just appropriately give us some dowry. Although she is our adopted daughter, with the Old Lady Zhang here, we will definitely not surpass her, right?" Song Yun Shan said indifferently.


    "The little scheme of the Old Lady Zhang is even more scheming than us, some people''s skin is even thicker when they are old, I am afraid we will have to handle it when the time comes." Xi Jiu Er thought about how she was the only one who schemed against the people around her in the Old Lady Zhang.


    "Ugh ¡­" Song Yun Shan only thought about their relationship, and not human nature. He sighed, "Forget it, when the time comes we''ll just ask her over to give us some dowry. I''ll be troubling her then. Since you, Song Mansion, are unwilling to leave after waiting for my Song Mansion, you should worry about her again. "


    "Master Song doesn''t need to worry. This Old Lady Zhang is Zhang Cui Lan''s only family, she naturally has to follow him to see him off."


    "Oh? You have a way? " Song Yun Shan thought about her intelligence and nodded: "I''ll leave this matter to you."


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er agreed. Old Lady Zhang had something against Zhang Cui Lan, Old Lady Zhang wanted her to marry Zhang Cui Lan no matter what, so that the Cao family would not be in a good mood, and it would be the best if they could cause trouble for Xi Wan Feng.


    Although Xi Wan Feng liked the Prime Minister Cao, she still treated the two young masters as elders. Especially Cao Qing, she kept a distance from him, afraid that the two of them would spread news of this and cause the Prime Minister Cao to be suspicious. Similarly, in order to win Prime Minister Cao''s favor, she treated Cao Qing exceptionally well ¡­


    Song Yun Shan left while staring at the candle flame in a daze. Ge La called out to her a few times before she quietly raised her head and asked: "What is it?"


    "Little Young Master, just now, Madame Song sent over some pastries ¡­" Ge La saw that she was expressionless and asked carefully: "Do you want Servant to take it out for you to eat?"


    In the end, it was because of the Song Family that Song Yun Shan suddenly came to the north, and it was definitely related to his recent movements. The other party must not have done this to bring Song Yun Shan back alive. Who was the one who wanted the Song Family dead? Prime Minister Cao, or even Prince Rong ¡­ Or Feng Qing Cheng?


    "Oh, okay." No matter how much he ate, he would not be sick of it. Suddenly, he thought of something and got up in a flash. Ge La, who was beside him, jumped in fright: "Little Young Master, you, what happened to you?"


    "Nothing, nothing." Xi Jiu Er said in a daze, "I just suddenly thought of a few things ¡­"


    Ge La did not say anything, but waited for Xi Jiu Er to rest. Her heart began to jump really hard, all she could think about was that Feng Qing Cheng had said, "I''ll come look for you tonight", she did not want to see him, but she was faintly hoping that he would come. She would tell him that the woman was nothing to him, that she was acting for the others to see, and he had her in his heart. If he were to say those sweet words now, she would definitely think it was true. Even if he did ¡­ But she needed to hear that now.


    He himself, what was going on? Xi Jiu Er tossed and turned, he reckoned that it was time for him to come over, so he laid motionlessly on the bed, pretending to be asleep. uneasiness, anticipation, joy... Many unknown emotions caused her to suffocate. It made her want to cry, to laugh, to say that she was stupid.


    Two hours...


    Four hours ¡­


    Six hours ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er stared at the top of the bed, she was in a daze, her heart slowly cooling, she could feel that it was hurting, it was extremely uncomfortable, as though she was stabbed by a sharp dagger, it was extremely painful. She wanted to cry, but there were no tears left. She covered her blanket and secretly cried for a long time, but she didn''t know. What was he doing? Was she with that girl? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe something had gotten in her way.


    Daybreak. Dawn.


    Xi Jiu Er entered the space and cried loudly in the quiet space... She slapped herself in the face, telling herself not to let her heart feel bad, not to be so silly, not to be so despicable! When she woke up, his face was in pain but there was no trace of it at all ¡­ Suddenly, she had to think of something to remind herself, to remind herself: Do not cry for a man, because the heart will be very painful, unable to breathe the pain, the feeling of wanting to die, she did not want to experience it again.


    On the second day, Xi Jiu Er went to an embroidery workshop. Most of the embroidery shops were filled with brothels women, and most of the concubines that treated people with sex. Ge La didn''t know how everything was alright for him to remove the tattoo, so she told Xi Jiu Er about the things on the tattoo that she did not know about. Xi Jiu Er''s expression was even colder than before, as if she did not hear anything.


    When the owner saw that it was a young noble who was followed by a young lady, he thought it was an embroidery for the young lady and chuckled, "Young master, come in and sit. May I ask what type of embroidery you would like to give this lady? "We have a design here. If you are not satisfied with it, you can draw it yourself. We will also draw for you."


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: Bring the picture book over for me to take a look.


    "Okay."


    There were many picture books but Xi Jiu Er chose very seriously. In the end, she pointed at a flower with thorns and said: "What is this? "This flower even has thorns?"


    "Oh, this was passed down from overseas. I heard that this is a type of rose called ''Rose''. The flowers are very pretty, but the flower diameter is quite dissatisfied. It looks like this. Young Master is interested in this? " The boss laughed and asked.


    "Hmm, give me a tattoo of this." Xi Jiu Er decided as he pointed to the position between his chest and his collarbone.


    "Ah, okay, okay." The boss was stunned, but when he untied the clothes on Xi Jiu Er''s chest, he realized that he was actually a woman, which solved his doubts. Seeing her skin as smooth as jade, he said: "It will hurt, bear with it."


    "Right." There wasn''t much emotion in his voice.


    As expected, it was very painful. Xi Jiu Er''s entire face wrinkled and her body was covered in a thin layer of sweat.

 C278

    "T-why is there only one flower? Look, even the collar can''t cover it." Ge La cried out, pointing at the flirtatious red rose that could drip blood at Xi Jiu Er''s collarbone, her face filled with dissatisfaction: "What do we do, if outsiders see this, they will gossip."


    What Ge La was saying was pretending to be a man, if a man''s tattoo was spread out, how could that be possible? The boss then thought that the thousand gold Miss would probably be a scammer if she revealed her true colors. Previously, when he was getting more and more skilled with her tattoos, she did not notice this and now, her collar could not hide it anymore ¡­ He was also getting anxious.


    "Miss, I, I was quick to the point that I didn''t pay attention to it ¡­ What, what should he do? How about I not take your money? " The boss also felt that he had caused a huge mess. Seeing how abnormal the Miss''s demeanor was, how could he care about the amount of silver? He was sweating profusely, not knowing what to do.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the copper mirror, it was a beautiful flower that looked as if it was alive, making people want to smell its fragrance uncontrollably, "Your markings are not bad, how much money do you have?"


    The boss was stunned, what did Miss mean? Won''t she pursue it? He quickly said: "I don''t want silver, I don''t want silver. As long as Miss likes it."


    "What, what should we do if it shows up?" Ge La had gone from a delicate princess to a prisoner. She knew what realm people''s words could reach, and that was just forcing a person to death. Being dressed as a man was already shocking enough. Now that this flower had appeared, what would happen if someone took it out to discuss? It was not as if she did not know that Ge La was a person who followed Xi Jiu Er, who was proud of each and every one of them.


    "What are you afraid of? You can just wear a bib." Xi Jiu Er did not care at all, although the boss did not want money, but it was hard for him to earn a living, suddenly she had an idea, she laughed and asked: "Boss, there should be a lot of women tattooed on you right?"


    The boss didn''t blame anyone for offending him today. Instead, he accepted the money and replied with some fear, "Yes."


    "Then are there any females in the Prime Minister Cao Palace?" Xi Jiu Er indicated for Ge La to give him the silver. Ge La knew that Xi Jiu Er was never short on silver and was extremely generous with her money. The boss had not expected to meet such a talkative person, but she was asking about the affairs of the Prime Minister Cao, so he hesitated for a moment: "This ¡­"


    "Don''t worry, I won''t tell anyone." Xi Jiu Er''s chin slightly lifted, and Ge La took out another silver ingot from her bag. Seeing the silver, the boss compromised: "There are a lot of people from the Prime Minister''s Estate, some are from the Madame, some are from the maids ¡­ "There are at least a dozen of them."


    Ge La''s eyes widened, oh my god, there were actually more than ten of them? Conversely, Xi Jiu Er said calmly, "Oh, then has the Prime Minister''s new beloved concubine, One Incense of the Ninth Underworld come yet?"


    "She? Even if she was here, I wouldn''t recognise her. However, there''s a servant girl called ''Fu Liu'' who came by once. The boss pondered for a while before replying.


    "Thank you, boss."


    After going out, he bought a bib and put it on, covering his collarbone. Her skin was stinging, and when she walked, the material on her clothes rubbed against her skin, making it feel like it was burning. Just as she returned to her residence, she received a shocking news: Prime Minister Cao''s beloved concubine, Jiu You, invited Zhang Cui Lan to her residence for a chat. When Madame Song found out that she was pregnant, she was both happy and depressed. She was happy that she became pregnant again after more than ten years, she was unbelievable.


    "Why did you call Cui Lan over?" Madame Song frowned. "If Cui Lan went to the Prime Minister''s Estate and did something wrong, what would happen if she got into trouble?" Zhang Cui Lan marrying the second young master of the Prime Minister Cao was a sore point in her heart, no, Zhang Cui Lan was a sore point in her heart.


    "In Madame, everything is centered around the child in your womb. Although Zhang Cui Lan is Madame''s adopted daughter, even if there''s trouble, the higher ups will still have to bear the burden of the Old Lady Zhang, so you can rest in peace. If you''re worried, just have Little Young Master come with you. You can be at ease with someone taking care of you from the inside. " stone mother was currently completely focused on the child that had yet to be born. Seeing Madame Song, whose health had not been well in the first place, worrying about this matter, he was afraid that her body would not be able to take it.


    "Just do as you say, let Tian''er go with her, so that I can be at ease."


    "Okay, I will send someone to give my orders." stone mother laughed and turned to instruct the maidservants at the entrance. When she saw that Madame Song was drowsy, she immediately went to sleep. was going to war, so naturally, as the Madame, she had to take care of the backyard. She said sleepily: "The person is back, let someone report to him."


    "Let Madame sleep, this old servant remembers." stone mother said as she tucked in her blanket.


    Xi Jiu Er had received this news the moment she returned, she did not expect to meet Xi Wan Feng again so quickly. Suddenly, she thought about what kind of situation she had experienced meeting Xi Wan Feng after his rebirth. It was unthinkable for the scene to reappear.


    Ge La felt that Xi Jiu Er had suddenly become spirited, and the expression in her eyes became different, as though she was a soldier about to go forth and kill her enemy. Her voice became cold as she said, "Ge La, carefully dress up for me, I want to go to Prime Minister''s Estate."


    "Yes." Ge La had doubts in her heart. She followed Xi Jiu Er''s instructions and carefully combed her makeup, dressing him up to look like a bright and noble young noble gentleman. She said: "Little Young Master, looking at you carefully makes you look really handsome."


    Xi Jiu Er smiled faintly: "It''s just a small bag. You should pack up and come with me to the Prime Minister''s Estate." Most young masters only served servants, and very few young masters would bring a maid with them when they went out. Unless she followed Xi Jiu Er out when it was necessary, she would usually stay in the mansion.


    "Yes." Ge La did not ask any further, and immediately went to get dressed up, it was extremely normal. Xi Jiu Er nodded her head in satisfaction. If Ge La was dressed well, some rumors would spread out, and next time, it would be inconvenient to bring him out.


    Although Zhang Cui Lan felt fear in her heart, she quickly calmed down. She would have to go to Cao Mansion sooner or later, so what difference was there if she went earlier or later? Letting Yu Huan dress up a little more cleanly, and seeing Xi Jiu Er standing outside her courtyard gracefully, her outstanding and elegant appearance caused her to be stunned for a moment.


    "Let''s go." Xi Jiu Er brought her wedding gifts, which were usually given when the two families walked around. There were four people in the carriage, Zhang Cui Lan felt that it was a bit boring, so she lifted the curtain and looked outside: "Big brother, why does she want to see me?"


    Xi Jiu Er closed her eyes and dozed off, but after hearing that, she only said, "Prime Minister Cao has been widowed for many years, so although there are many concubinage s, they have never supported a girl as the third string. This Nine Serenities One Incense is being spoiled, and it is not strange for her to take the place of a man in Cao Qing''s marriage."

    "Big brother is smart. I didn''t think of such a simple logic." Zhang Cui Lan lowered the curtain, and only then did she feel slightly better. Along the way, no one spoke, and after who knows how long, Ge La whispered, "Little Young Master, we''re here."


    "Right." Where is the sleep when you open your eyes? He was clearly very clear-headed, and his pair of eyes were exceptionally bright. It was as if they were bright stars that would make people unable to look away from them.


    "What''s wrong?" Xi Jiu Er looked at Ge La who was staring at him blankly, touched his face and asked: "Is there something on my face?"


    Ge La felt a little awkward, and her cheeks warmed up as she said, "No, it''s just that the eyes of the little Young Master are very beautiful, like gems." Initially, she thought the other party would be very happy to hear this, but she did not expect that Xi Jiu Er''s face would darken when she heard it. "My eyes are beautiful?"


    "Yes." Ge La despised herself, as she was actually captivated by a pair of eyes, especially when the other party was a woman! She was truly ashamed.


    "Let''s go." Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes and got off the carriage. The two stone lions by the door were tall and mighty, their auras fierce and ferocious. There were a total of three doors, all of which had been painted with fine paint. This paint could only be found in the imperial palace, and it could last for three to five years without fading.


    Just look at the servants standing at the door, their clothes were better than the servants'', but their attitude was even more arrogant. Seeing that the carriage was not luxurious, and seeing that the Miss and the Young Master that came down had not seen them before, they guessed that they were not the children of famous officials, and said with a disdainful tone, "Who are you?"


    "I am the son of Song Yun Shan, Song Tian!"


    "Hehe, so it''s Young Master Song. This lowly one didn''t see clearly that it''s you, this is ¡­" The servant''s attitude immediately became fervent and said to Zhang Cui Lan.


    "This is my Sister-in-law, Zhang Cui Lan."


    "Aiyo, Young Master Song, please come in. Please come in, Lady Fragrance has been waiting for a long time." The servants immediately led Xi Jiu Er and Zhang Cui Lan into the mansion. It truly was worthy of being called the Prime Minister''s Estate. It was grand and luxurious, and every corner of the palace was telling everyone: I am rich!


    Xi Jiu Er pretended to admire the scenery and from time to time, she would praise herself. That servant could not help but reveal a proud look, feeling that she had a unique identity. Along the way, they met many pretty girls, all of whom had their own unique characteristics. They were all beautiful and attractive young women. Even the servants had some looks on their faces.


    The servant led Xi Jiu Er and the others to Charming Fragrance Garden. Looking at those three words, she wanted to know what Xi Wan Feng was thinking by treating others like perverts. Was she going to die from anger when she found out she was still alive? With a grin, he lowered her eyes and became a bit absent-minded.


    Just as he entered the Charming Fragrance Garden, he heard a commotion coming from inside. The servants were bringing Xi Jiu Er in, but he did not know whether to retreat or retreat, he did not expect to encounter such a situation. For a moment, it was so awkward that he didn''t know what to do.


    "This... Then we will have to trouble Young Master Song and Miss Zhang. " The servant was relieved as he stood at the side. Xi Jiu Er pointed to the crying lady in the courtyard and asked, "Who is she?"


    "She is a young Madame who has lost her favor in our family." The servant pursed his lips in disdain.


    In the courtyard of the Charming Fragrance Garden, there was a woman crying. Her hair was disheveled, and one could see her palm-sized face filled with anger and despair as she stared at the door. Around her stood a group of cold servants.


    Suddenly, the woman took out a dagger and shouted, "In the three years that I have been in the Prime Minister''s Estate, I have never done anything excessive. Lady Fragrance, I know you are powerful, I have offended you before, so you used this method to take revenge on me ¡­ "You venomous woman, you will die a horrible death. Even if I die today, I will not let you off!"


    Even though the woman said she would die, she didn''t do anything.


    "What nonsense are you talking about? You were clearly the one who did all those shameful things, and now you''re still saying that our Madame is magnanimous and does not care about our family''s affairs. Furthermore, we will not say that we are going to take revenge on you, so stop spouting nonsense." The maid could not bear to listen any longer and immediately scolded him. This woman was dressed more attentively than the other maidservants. Although she was dressed in the attire of a third-rate maidservant, her eyes were sharp and fierce.


    "Who is this maid?" Xi Jiu Er suddenly had a flash of inspiration, he roughly guessed who the servant was.


    "It''s called something like supporting the willow ¡­" The servant said uncertainly. This Prime Minister''s Estate never lacked beauties, how would the servants remember the names of the beautifully dressed maids.


    "I framed you, you must explain yourself to me today." An enchanting woman wearing a light pink dress with a red robe was supporting a old mother as they slowly walked out. With every step, her figure would twist like a nimble snake, making one unable to heat up her waist just by looking at her.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at Xi Wan Feng passionately. Good, good, seems like you have had a good time. She reckoned that she had learnt quite a lot of Yan Niang''s skills, and in just a short period of time, she seemed to have gotten to know him, if she did not know her true identity, she would not have been able to do it.


    "Explain clearly? What is there to not say? It was clearly you who framed me! "You venomous woman, the heavens are blind ¡­" The lady suddenly stood up with the dagger and rushed over to grab onto the shining dagger. The servant girls were scared silly, Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed with a look of fear, the old mother beside her did not even do anything else as she took the dagger from her.


    A martial artist. Xi Jiu Er continued to read silently.


    Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and the old mother shouted out loudly: "What are you all standing there for, why aren''t you all dragging this rumored woman out?"


    "You slut, you shall not die a good death, nor shall you die a good death ¡­" "Sob, sob, sob ¡­" The girl''s mouth was gagged and she was dragged off. Her resentful eyes were like cold snakes, causing people to shudder in fear. But who was Xi Wan Feng, with the blood in his hands and the heart of stone, he didn''t care about this kind of gaze, in any case, he couldn''t kill her with his gaze.


    "Wipe everything up, Madame will be receiving guests in a while." After old mother said this, she supported Xi Wan Rong into the house. At this time, the servant wiped off the cold sweat on her forehead and laughed: "Young Master Song, Miss Zhang, let us go in."


    "Wow." Xi Jiu Er grinned, and meaningfully glanced at the woman''s leaving figure. It seemed that Xi Wan Feng had made many enemies in the Prime Minister''s Estate, and there were also many scouts outside. Even though her identity was noble and she had received the Prime Minister Cao''s favor, they said that she was impossible to guard against ¡­

 C280

    "Young Master Song, Miss Zhang, please sit." Wu Mei''s gentle voice was captivating, and his eyes were filled with a natural spring color. That pink long dress looked like a young girl, and was actually a lot younger than Zhang Cui Lan.


    "Thank you, Lady Fragrance." Xi Jiu Er raised his robes and sat down gracefully, looking like an elegant young noble, making people admire him. Xi Wan Feng also saw that he looked more refined and elegant than all the men he had ever seen, with a seemingly weak yet unrestrained manner, the more Xi Wan Feng liked it the more he saw him.


    "Thank you, Lady Fragrance." Zhang Cui Lan was very reserved, he did not dare to make any mistakes, which made Xi Wan Feng very satisfied, and with one look, he knew that it was easy to pinch.


    "Miss Zhang, no need to be restrained. Since you have an engagement with Second Young Master, you can treat this place as your own home." Xi Wan Feng''s smile was exceptionally gentle, but unfortunately, her charming face could not produce that kind of grandiose expression, and instead appeared to be a good person. In addition to her body that was wrapped in bewitching bones, her every movement was no longer as noble as it was in the past. Xi Jiu Er thought, what a pity.


    "Yes." The etiquette that Lady Fragrance had learned was strange. Even if he had an engagement, he couldn''t be this presumptuous! Even though he said that, Zhang Cui Lan did not dare to slight him, as he was still obedient.


    Xi Wan Feng''s exquisite headgear shone with a Cui Ran''s eye-catching light under the light, even the jewelry was exquisite and expensive, it looked like Xi Wan Feng''s life was flourishing.


    "Lady Fragrance, the Head Flower that you wanted is done." Fu Liu''s voice came from outside. Xi Jiu Er looked over without batting an eyelid, and Xi Wan Feng''s face immediately sunk: "Come in."


    "Yes." Fu Liu lowered his head and entered with a tray in his hand. On the tray in between, there were many styles such as peony, peony, orchid, chrysanthemum, plum blossom and so on. It was done as if it was fresh and fresh, as if one could smell the fragrance of flowers.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t like this kind of thing, so she only glanced at it lightly. But Zhang Cui Lan was different, now that she needed to dress up properly, she obviously wanted to see something beautiful.


    "Seeing that Miss Zhang likes it too, why not choose one and gift it to you?" Xi Wan Feng said with a smile.


    One flower? As expected, he was still so petty. Xi Jiu Er''s heart snorted, she took a sip of tea and pretended to look at old mother, who was standing beside Xi Wan Feng. This was a capable man, in the short span of a few months, she would definitely not recruit such a person, probably because of Prince Rong.


    "Little Young Master, what do you have on my body that makes me look so carefully?" Xi Wan Feng covered her mouth and laughed slightly, her beautiful eyes flowing with light, the mother of cinnamon beside her had a face filled with respect, it did not seem happy or angry.


    Xi Jiu Er looked back at her and laughed: "The flowers on my mother''s skirt are really unique, I don''t think I have ever seen them before."


    "These flowers are ¡­" Xi Wan Feng turned to look at mother of cinnamon, who hurriedly replied, "Reporting to Little Young Master, this old servant embroidered this flower during my free time."


    "So that''s how it is. Do you have a purpose for coming here?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    "It''s just a wild flower that I accidentally saw once. It was embroidered just by looking at it. There''s no reason for me to come here." mother of cinnamon hurriedly said with a respectful attitude. She did not have a single trace of the sharp aura she used to snatch the blade, and just like an ordinary old mother, he was actually quite a character.


    "So that''s how it is." Xi Jiu Er did not pursue the matter anymore, but she secretly remembered the cautious look in mother of cinnamon''s eyes when she mentioned Su Hua, afraid that there was some secret. Turning her head to see that Zhang Cui Lan had an orchid in her hand, she thought that Zhang Cui Lan was not stupid enough to take the peony peony.


    The three of them talked for a while, and every time Xi Wan Feng asked some questions, his answers would always be straight and correct. Xi Wan Feng just asked a few questions about "What books do you like to read", "What music do you play on Reasoning Days", etc., Zhang Cui Lan had some knowledge about all kinds of books, including female disciples, who had studied everything else, and whenever he talked about something, Xi Wan Feng would exaggerate his answers to make Zhang Cui Lan admire him: "I never thought that Lady Fragrance was this knowledgeable, Cui Lan is extremely impressed."


    Xi Wan Feng said indifferently: "I just like to read a few books everyday." first talented girl''s reputation was not just for show. Thinking back to how she had lived a life worse than death today, she felt both grief and hatred. She did not know when she would be the one to end it.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw her expression, she immediately knew that she was recalling her memories, and slowly put down the tea in her hand. She was surprised to find that Xi Wan Feng''s eyes were faintly discernible as they looked at him, and that her eyebrows were like a spider silk that were pestering him a little. She was instantly shocked, could it be that she had recognized him? She quickly lowered his eyes as her mind tried to come up with a countermeasure.


    Xi Wan Feng had taught himself Yan Niang''s bewitching skills, so he couldn''t be certain that most men would be attracted by her bewitching skills. At least, she wouldn''t be able to escape her palms when she was young. As long as she lured them a little bit, they would be interested in him. However, the youth in front of him was completely indifferent. Her eyes were clear and clear, and only when she was looking at him tenderly earlier did he make a move, as if she was embarrassed.


    "What does Young Master Song usually like?" Xi Wan Feng assumed a comfortable position, revealing her beautiful wrists. Her posture was graceful with a kind of special charm.


    "I like reading wild histories and medical techniques. In short, I''ll read anything that''s interesting." Xi Jiu Er lowered half of her eyes and cupped her hands in answer to Xi Wan Feng''s question. She had yet to clear whether Xi Wan Feng was already suspecting her identity, and thus did not dare to rashly attract attention. But her attitude towards Xi Wan Feng was much better.


    "Is that so?" Xi Wan Feng lazily asked, her voice was a little numb, her gaze moved up Xi Jiu Er''s eyebrows, she was truly handsome, more beautiful than any man she had ever seen. He suddenly thought of the His Highness the Fourth Prince. He heard that extremely beautiful men, who could even be described as peerless and devastatingly beautiful, were not reckless at all.


    It was a pity that she did not see it, she had already been in the Wind Nation for half a year, and had already spent a lot of time studying charm at Yan Niang''s place. In order to get the love of the Cao Mansion, she had to fight with these women day and night, and because the concubinage was located in the Cao Mansion, it was not easy to leave the house, so she had never seen this prince.


    After looking at the time for lunch, it was almost time, Xi Wan Feng had sent people to see if Cao Nan had returned, when Xi Jiu Er brought up his idea, Xi Wan Feng''s expression was different, could it be that there was something between the two of them?


    "Young Master Cao has returned. He said that he had prepared some dishes and wine and wanted to invite Young Master Song over for a chat." The servant said.


    As a man, Xi Jiu Er naturally could not be on the same table as Xi Wan Feng. She gave Zhang Cui Lan a comforting look, telling her to remember to speak less was her fault. On the way back, Xi Jiu Er found out a lot of news. Before Xi Wan Feng entered the residence, he rarely returned home, and he only returned in the middle of the night. Ever since he returned from Xi Wan Feng, Cao Nan rarely went out.

 C281

    Xi Jiu Er thought that there must be something inside ¡­ It might even be possible for the two of them to secretly take advantage of Chen Cang. Cao Nan was a man who was proficient in poetry, so the title of Xi Wan Feng''s first talented girl was in fact worthy of its title. It seemed impossible for the two of them, but if one were to think about it, there was a possibility of them being together.


    An elegant pavilion had already prepared some dishes and wine, Cao Nan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the ripples in the lake, he seemed to be thinking of something, but after hearing the servant''s report, he turned and smiled: "Brother Song, please."


    Xi Jiu Er was dressed extravagantly today. Although her looks were slightly inferior to the well-dressed Cao Nan, in terms of temperament, she was on par with him. Xi Jiu Er''s elegance made it so that no one dared to approach him and gave him a presumptuous attitude.


    "Brother Song sure is handsome today." Cao Nan was not stingy with his praises, Xi Jiu Er chuckled, "mother said that I dressed too casually. When I reach the age of marriage, I should learn from those girls and properly clean myself up."


    Cao Nan thought of Feng Ru Jun...


    "Madame Song is right, Brother Song''s tidying up immediately looks like someone else. I wonder how many ladies want to marry you." Cao Nan chuckled, and even deliberately sized Xi Jiu Er up, praising him: "What a handsome young master, I really don''t know if that young lady will be lucky enough to marry you."


    "Brother Cao, you''re all making fun of me. Come, let''s eat. We haven''t even eaten a single bite today because of this matter. I''m really hungry." Xi Jiu Er started to eat impolitely as well. Men did not have as much to pay attention to when eating.


    "When I saw the Lady Fragrance today, I realized that the Lady Fragrance is proficient in all kinds of calligraphy and painting. When Xi Jiu Er mentioned the three words'' Lady Fragrance '', she stopped for a short moment. Hearing Xi Wan Feng''s praise, he just smiled, obviously smiling extremely happily.


    When Xi Jiu Er received the confirmation, she immediately thought that Xi Wan Feng truly treated this Young Master Cao as his own? Impossible! Based on her understanding of Xi Wan Feng, this woman had always only loved him, so how could she fall in love with him? Moreover, Cao Nan''s character and appearance were both good, and was not necessarily good in her eyes. Many young talents wanted to marry Xi Wan Feng back then, when Xi Wan Feng had never had her current appearance and did not agree.


    Why was she doing this? Find someone to rely on in the Cao Mansion? It''s possible. Maybe there was another possibility. Cao Nan''s greatest use was that he could stop the crazy Cao Qing! She had heard the news about a woman shared by the Prime Minister Cao and Cao Qing, and later on, that girl was executed by the Prime Minister Cao ¡­ And this woman was once the new favorite of the Prime Minister Cao, it could be seen how fond he was of Cao Qing.


    Thinking of the current Xi Wan Feng, his entire body emitted an enticing charm. Would Cao Qing, who only wanted to be with women, let her go? Unless Cao Qing was not a man, unless someone could stop him, and unless Cao Nan was not a person!


    After dinner, Cao Nan brought Xi Jiu Er to take a tour around the Cao Mansion. Xi Jiu Er paid special attention to the courtyard between Cao Nan and Xi Wan Feng, and drank ¡ª ¡ª Cao Nan''s courtyard separated Cao Qing''s and Xi Wan Feng''s courtyard. Although the Cao Mansion was big, there were many women.


    "The girls in your house are truly beautiful beyond compare. Once you enter the back garden, you''ll feel like you''re an eye-opener." Xi Jiu Er''s handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament immediately attracted a lot of attention from the girls. She did not care at all, as a woman, how could she be with another woman! She didn''t dare to even think about it ¡­


    After walking around once, he arrived at a unique corridor. Xi Jiu Er''s legs were aching as he sat down: "I can''t, I can''t, I have to rest for a bit, I''m so tired."


    Cao Nan looked around to make sure that there were no servants here, then said: "Sit here, I''ll get a servant to bring you a palanquin." The so-called palanquin consisted of two people carrying a small, soft palanquin. The palanquins used in the palace were generally used by people, and the relatively large mansions were also commonly used.


    "Alright."


    When Cao Nan left, a servant came from an unknown place. Xi Jiu Er immediately called for her to bring a sedan chair over, causing her to be unable to walk anymore. The servant''s expression did not look good, causing Xi Jiu Er to immediately alert his, keeping his guard up.


    The servant handed a piece of paper to Xi Jiu Er, and then said in a low voice: "Young Master Song, Lady Fragrance asked Servant to bring you something, he told you to go to the back door, there was a backdoor route drawn on it."


    Xi Wan Feng invited him? The back door route? How did the other party know that he would stay here? It was true that he was too tired and it was not intentional.


    After the servant said this, she planned to turn and leave, but Xi Jiu Er suddenly grabbed her wrist like lightning and stared at her fiercely: "Who sent you here, why did you set me up?"


    The servant didn''t know what to do and fiercely shook her head, causing Xi Jiu Er''s aura to lose its colour as she stammered: "Servant, Servant doesn''t know either, it, it was a servant that gave him the chance to give Young Master Song a gift ¡­"


    "Don''t you know it''s a big deal?" Xi Jiu Er asked harshly. The servant girl was so scared that her face was ashen, she bit her lips as though she was about to cry: "Servant, Servant accepted the servant''s silver, he told Servant that there are a lot of maids, you probably won''t remember what the Servant looks like ¡­"


    "You''re wrong, my memory is very good, very good." Xi Jiu Er sneered, wow, her newly-arrived Prime Minister''s Estate was being set up by someone, even without her brain, she knew it must have been done by a woman who was at odds with Xi Wan Feng, it was foolish enough.


    "Little Young Master, this Servant was wrong ¡­ I beg you to spare Servant ¡­ " The servant girl looked to somewhere and her legs were trembling. Xi Jiu Er turned to see Cao Nan bringing a few other people over, although she did not know what Cao Nan was like, but from the servant''s expression, she knew that this seemingly gentle and refined Great Young Master was not like what he looked like. He knew that someone had framed Xi Wan Feng, and would definitely not let that person go.


    "What''s wrong?" Cao Nan frowned.


    Xi Jiu Er magnanimously handed the slip of paper to Cao Nan, then released the servant''s wrist and said indifferently: "This is the first time I have met Lady Fragrance, with one look, I can tell that she is a woman who understands etiquette, and would definitely not behave like this. This matter is very strange, and is also a matter of your esteemed family, so let Brother Cao handle it. "


    Cao Nan gave a cursory glance, and without much of an expression, he ordered: "Drag this maid down and lock his up first, I''ll definitely find out everything about this matter."


    Hehe, the key person is the attendant, after Xi Jiu Er waited for such a long time he estimated that he had already escaped. He took a glance at the young maid, who was trembling in fear, and said, "Brother Cao, look at how you scared this young lady ¡­"

 C282

    What did you say you like me?


    Cao Nan then revealed a smile: "Brother Song doesn''t know, but because we Cao Mansion have too many people to talk, we are usually very strict with our servants. That servant looks like she just arrived not long ago. I didn''t frighten her, I did the rules. "


    "Ai, I won''t say anymore. These legs are killing me ¡­" Xi Jiu Er rubbed her legs as she sat on the palanquin, her thoughts flying far away. After connecting the dots, the cocoons started to slowly peel off. Then, how was mother of cinnamon and Cao Nan going to get rid of the two people in front of Xi Wan Feng? mother of cinnamon''s martial arts were good, if she wanted to get rid of her, it would be easy, but Cao Nan was not!


    On the way back, a scene like this appeared not too far away from Cao Mansion. Cao Mansion was currently buying two maids, and these two maids were beaten up until their bodies were covered with wounds, on the verge of death. The voice of the dental granny was loud and dissatisfied, that was why Xi Jiu Er knew that she was selling people.


    "These two maidservants have already been beaten to such a state. How much could they be worth?" ''s mind came to a realization and he ordered Ge La: "Go to the dental granny and buy everyone back. Don''t expose your identity, then find an inn for them to stay, and find a doctor to treat them. These two people are useful to me, so I can''t be careless. "


    Ge La''s mind shook, and sshe immediately nodded. "Little Young Master, don''t worry." After the carriage stopped, he jumped off and disappeared in the blink of an eye.


    It was as if Yu Huan didn''t see anything, Zhang Cui Lan didn''t know what the two servant girls could do, and asked: "Brother, what do you need the two servant girls for? "He''s already been beaten to this state ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er said in a perfunctory manner: "Don''t underestimate anyone''s value, if you want to join the Cao Mansion, don''t look down on them. Cao Mansion, you have to see what kind of scene you have seen today, it''s just those servant girls, they are already more beautiful than you, not to mention Cao Qing and the other girls, I walked past Cao Qing''s courtyard, and said that with your looks, the servant girl might not even be able to match up to you. If I keep them here, I''ll be able to find out the habits and nature of the various masters. If you marry them, you wouldn''t be at a disadvantage in the dark. "


    Zhang Cui Lan never thought that the other party would be thinking about everything for her, and was moved. "Thank you Big Brother for thinking about Cui Lan, but Big Brother has thought it through thoroughly."


    "Don''t worry, I won''t let you suffer any grievances if you marry Cao Qing." Xi Jiu Er looked at her moved face and revealed a sincere expression. It was true that the reason she kept the two servants was to ask about the habits of the courtyard owners, not for Zhang Cui Lan.


    "Brother, there''s something Cui Lan doesn''t know if she should say, today Lady Fragrance seems to be interested in you ¡­" Zhang Cui Lan''s words did not surprise anyone, and as fast as lightning, she was struck dumb. She asked in surprise, "What did you just say?"


    "Cui Lan said ¡­ Lady Fragrance seems to have done something to Big Brother today, as if she was interested in Big Brother ¡­ " Zhang Cui Lan saw that Xi Jiu Er''s face was extremely ugly, and immediately said: "Cui Lan is only guessing, but Cui Lan is overthinking it."


    Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath. Oh my god, this is too scary. Why did she feel as if she had eaten a lump of shit that was smelly and disgusting! She did not manage to recover her strength for a long time, so when she thought about Xi Wan Feng''s actions back then, it was indeed somewhat strange ¡­ She had used all her strength because Xi Wan Feng had noticed something. Could it be that Zhang Cui Lan thought so?


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er asked in reply. Perhaps Zhang Cui Lan, who was standing at the side, had realized a profound mystery behind it. She suddenly thought to herself: Why would Xi Wan Feng like her own woman? Could it be that after seducing ''Song Tian'' to such a state, she had to kneel under her skirt and allow her to order him around?


    Perhaps, this was her true goal.


    "..." Hehe, maybe Cui Lan is seeing things, seeing things. " Zhang Cui Lan hurriedly interrupted: "Big brother, why do you think Feng Ru Jun hasn''t made any movements recently? "They really can hold it in."


    "It is merely a storm that is approaching. The quieter they are, the greater the commotion they will cause. I was worried that the Prince Rong would discover something that would harm you. " On the other hand, Xi Jiu Er wasn''t afraid of anything. She wasn''t afraid of Feng Ru Jun not moving.


    After returning to the Song Mansion, the Madame Song immediately asked with concern, afraid that she would lose an arm or a leg and return. Xi Jiu Er laughed: "I''m already so old, why are you still afraid of me? But you, mother, you should take good care of yourself, hurry up and give birth to Tian Er a younger brother."


    "Little brother?" Maybe it''s his sister. " As he spoke of the child''s Madame Song, his expression softened and he said in annoyance, "You, ah, the older you are, the more unruly you become."


    Prince Rong Mansion, study room.


    "How''s the investigation going? Was that Zhang Cui Lan''s little slut plotting against him like a king? " Madame Feng impatiently asked. It had to be, it had to be.


    "That man has no mother or father, and is alone. I was unable to find any clues related to Zhang Cui Lan from him." Before Prince Rong could finish speaking, Madame Feng shouted, "How can it be okay? How could a lady of whatever status fall for a man like him? We can''t find anything from him, so we''ll just find out from Zhang Cui Lan. There must be some clues. "


    Prince Rong endured his anger and said indifferently: "I have tortured that monk in the temple before. Under the torture, I did not believe that he would lie to me. As for Zhang Cui Lan, he had only been going to the general store for a few days to buy jewelry, nothing more.


    "Did you, a prince, find out all this?" The Madame Feng was finally on fire. She could no longer hold back her anger: "You''re still a prince, you can''t even find out about such a small thing. You''ve raised all those trash for nothing."


    "Shut up!" The Prince Rong had indeed found some clues pointing to Zhang Cui Lan. When Zhang Cui Lan went to the Pu Tuo Temple before, he could not find any other clues. He also knew that this matter was somewhat strange. Just as the Madame Feng had said, for a dignified prince like him to not even be able to find out about this, it was simply too embarrassing. He was also furious about these things.


    Now that the Madame Feng had pointed it out without mercy, how could someone like him, a proud son of heaven, endure it? Now that Zhang Cui Lan was Second Young Master Cao''s fiancee, she had already sent her an invitation, and decided to marry Zhang Cui Lan to her on a auspicious day! Was it because this kind of fake thing made Second Young Master Cao unable to take a wife? Do you know how much the Prime Minister Cao dotes on his son? This f * cking Young Noble approves of this marriage, so ¡ª This marriage is a foregone conclusion, no one can change it! " Pausing for a moment, he enunciated each word clearly: "Zhang Cui Lan, you can''t move right now, you better remember this. She''s still useful now, wait until that day is over.


    Prince Rong was gloomy, with dense killing intent, his pair of fierce and malicious eyes were like a poisonous snake, making people unable to breathe.

 C283

    Madame Feng was so frightened by Prince Rong''s sinister expression that he couldn''t open his mouth to speak for a long time. He opened his mouth and followed Prince Rong''s gaze, only to see Feng Ru Jun standing behind the bead curtain with a calm expression. Madame Feng''s heart thumped as she hurried over and said, "How are you going to get up? Why aren''t you resting yet?"


    "I''ve been lying in bed for many days already. I want to go for a walk." Feng Ru Jun''s expression was calm, there was even a hint of a smile on her face. The more she acted like this, the more Madame Feng got a bad premonition.


    "mother, is there anything else daughter needs? Just like what Prince Rong said, Zhang Cui Lan is already her future wife, what can we do about it? We just have to wait for the Prince Rong to give us the people, and then we can do whatever we want with them. Feng Ru Jun even tried to comfort her: "Don''t be angry mother, this will eventually go away!"


    Madame Feng didn''t know what his daughter was thinking at the moment. She didn''t know what she was thinking in her heart, but now that she had Prince Rong''s help, she didn''t know what to say.


    "It''s still better if it''s within reason. Once this matter is over, Zhang Cui Lan will definitely fall into my hands, and at that time, I''ll let you deal with him as you wish. Whether she''s dead or alive, it''s all in your hands." Prince Rong''s cold and murderous aura faded, his face regained a smile: "Aunt Feng, you should learn from Ru Jun more, read more. Alright, I''ll send you back. "


    "Thank you, Prince Rong." Feng Ru Jun bowed. After experiencing this, she seemed to have matured a lot, becoming a quiet person. Madame Feng felt more and more uneasy. She held her daughter''s hand but she could not say a thousand words. It was not easy to reach the inn, so she immediately said: "Ru Jun, don''t worry. mother will avenge you ¡­"


    Feng Ru Jun stared at her silently, and in that instant it was extremely terrifying, causing Madame Feng to be unable to say a single word, his entire body trembling with fear, and barely able to open his mouth: "Ru Jun, you, what happened to you?"


    When Feng Ru Jun heard that her mother wanted to take revenge for her, he could not help but scold her trash, saying that he wanted to take revenge, but what about the result? Even though he was angry in his heart, he was still a mother who loved him dearly. Holding back his anger, he said lightly: "Nothing, we are now in Yan Du, the marriage is over, I''m afraid that father is not doing well, Prince Rong and soft consort did not say anything, let''s wait here for now."


    Madame Feng bit her lips, thought about Feng Ru Jun''s words and sighed helplessly, feeling gratified in his heart. Perhaps getting blessed from misfortune, his daughter had grown up a lot in one night, becoming sensible.


    Deep in the night, Feng Ru Jun stared at the top of the bed above her head. No matter what, she would not let Zhang Cui Lan go.


    Following that, Feng Ru Jun did not appear to be abnormal, he just stayed in his room to recuperate, and then sent his servant out. The sky maid returned and said: "Miss, Servant has finished."


    Feng Ru Jun, who had been quietly reading all this time, suddenly raised his head, and finally revealed a cold smile. "Alright, go tell mother that I''ve been bored senseless in my room these past few days. I want to go out for a walk."


    Madame Feng was afraid that his daughter would be depressed, so when she heard that his daughter was about to go out, he immediately said: "Go, serve Miss well all the way. If anything happens to you, do you know?"


    The maidservant said in fear, "Yes, Servant will definitely serve Miss carefully."


    Feng Ru Jun headed straight for an embroidery manor. Coincidentally, there was an rouge shop next door, so the moment Ge La walked out of the rouge shop, she bumped into Feng Ru Jun who had alighted from the carriage. Ge La saw that her face was pale and sickly, but her dressing made her suspicious: Isn''t she too enchanting, as if she was trying to seduce someone.


    "Do as I''ve instructed!" Feng Ru Jun instructed the servant as she entered the embroidery workshop alone. The maid got on the carriage and instructed the carriage to take a stroll outside the city before returning. Ge La was suspicious of the rouge in her hand. There was something fishy going on, could it be a conspiracy? Why not take a look, maybe it would harm the little Young Master?


    Ge La followed him in, and immediately a servant came to introduce them: "Young lady, what do you want to buy? "Our embroidery workshop is equipped with all kinds of fabrics, and flowers are commonly worn by blind people. Look at the Cloud Blossom Sky ¡­"


    "Is that so?" Ge La pretended to be interested and agreed with the shop assistant, observing Feng Ru Jun''s actions without leaving a trace. Feng Ru Jun gave an assistant a silver ingot and followed him to the backyard. She immediately fished out some silver from her bosom. Following Xi Jiu Er, she had never worried about money nor did she lack these things on her body.


    "Bro, I, I suddenly ¡­" "May I ask where the toilet is?" This was after all a young lady''s house, and opposite from her was a young man. Ge La''s face was bashful and difficult to voice out, the young man''s eyes had long been blinded by the shining white silver, he passionately said, "I''ll take the young lady ¡­"


    "No need, no need. I''ll go by myself. Just tell me the general direction and I''ll look." Ge La''s face flushed red, the servant also felt that he was being rude, and awkwardly pointed towards the general direction of the toilet, causing the figure of the person beside him to disappear.


    He secretly felt that this girl was probably too impatient.


    The backyard was very simple, Ge La made a mess and finally saw Feng Ru Jun''s figure flash past the corner and immediately followed after him! Feng Ru Jun walked into the alley in an enchanting manner while wearing a veil, and followed after him with his head lowered and his face covered.


    At the end of the alley was the back door of the teahouse. Ge La hid behind a tree and watched as she knocked on the door three times before an old man walked out. He opened the door and said in a hoarse voice: "Let''s go in."


    Creaak. The door closed. Ge La now determined that Feng Ru Jun was doing some kind of shady scheme, and after that he went to check the door three times, the old man opened it again, and she gave him a gold ingot as a scholar. The old man''s eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "Come in."


    The moment Ge La entered, she immediately went to the backyard of the inn. Although it was the backyard, the decorations were very elegant, like a small teahouse! Ge La didn''t know where Feng Ru Jun had gone to. Looking at the rows and rows of tightly closed doors on the first and second floor, how could he dare to make any further movements?


    With a "bang", the door closed. Ge La turned her head to look upwards and the two doors just happened to close. Could it be that Feng Ru Jun entered through this door? Ge La strode towards the door. As expected, he heard Feng Ru Jun''s laughter, and other than her, there was also the eerie voice of a man. She immediately understood. had come to meet a lover?


    The voice inside was very soft and it sounded very vague. Ge La pushed open the door to the room next door and was immediately shocked and relieved when she saw no one else around. Hurry up and close the door... She suddenly felt that she was just a fool, she couldn''t hear anything at all!

 C284

    Zhi ¡ª ¡ª Just as Ge La was about to leave, the mountain and river painting suddenly moved. No, the wall moved. Her eyes bulged and her mind went blank. She did not know where she got the strength to jump under the bed.


    "Hehe, if there''s anything we need to discuss on the bed, we''ll talk about it later." The man''s voice was thick and evil, filled with impatience. Ge La spat in her heart, then heard Feng Ru Jun say with a charming smile: "Why are you in such a hurry? Since I''m here today, my entire body will be yours."


    Ge La pursed her lips. Feng Ru Jun''s personality was arrogant and despotic, who would have thought that she would have such an unrestrained and dissolute personality. This sound, aiyo, aiyo. It''s almost as loud as the Lady Fragrance''s.


    "How can you wait to see such a beauty?" The man sounded impatient. He had a coarse beard, thick eyebrows, small eyes, and a tall and sturdy figure. In this aspect, wearing it was a bit out of line, so he didn''t pay attention to how the clothes were dressed. Her eyes were staring at the little beauty in front of her with a fiery look in her eyes, and she was salivating.


    Feng Ru Jun felt disgusted, but she still had a charming smile on her face as she reached out her slender fingers and stroked the man''s cheeks with each of the following strokes: "Don''t be impatient yet, you have settled on the things I told you earlier! "Don''t lie to me when the time comes."


    "Don''t worry, I''ve already called my brothers over to greet her ¡­" The man rubbed her paws together as she stared at the two lumps of white stuff. She wished that she could immediately transform into a wolf.


    "Aiya, why don''t we play some tricks today ¡­" "Let''s have a drink first ¡­" Feng Ru Jun twisted his waist and went to pour some wine. The man behind hugged her and laughed, "How did that woman offend you? Let us brothers enjoy her? "


    It was just kidnapping a woman. Brothers would try to rob their families for this kind of thing. Moreover, it was a weak and beautiful girl. There wouldn''t be any problems. He heard from his subordinate that the woman was rather pretty, and he immediately ordered his men: I am going to be her first man.


    He planned to eat up this beauty before going back to enjoy another. As for the identity of that beauty, what did he care about? I heard my subordinate say that it was the Miss of a rich person ¡­ It was not like they had plundered Miss twice before. Each time, they would retreat after the game was over. They did not even dare to fart for the sake of their reputable family.


    "I''ll tell you after you drink this cup of wine ¡­" Feng Ru Jun''s charming eyes flashed, and she passed the wine cup to the man to drink, a killing intent flashed past her eyes.


    "She, she is the fiancee of Prime Minister Cao''s second young master ¡­ Zhang Cui Lan! " As expected, when Feng Ru Jun said that, he saw the man''s face changed and ridiculed: "What, are you afraid?"


    Beneath the bed, Ge La''s face also changed. A guess and an answer were two different things. From the moment she became a slave in the hands of a princess of a small country, she understood how terrifying a woman''s heart was. Sometimes, taking someone''s life for a hairpin was a common occurrence, and she was already used to it. Furthermore, Feng Ru Jun believed that Zhang Cui Lan had plotted against him, so it was not strange for her to make such a move.


    "This... After all, this is related to the Prime Minister''s Estate, if we find out something, my brothers and I might not be able to handle it. " In the past, he was just the family of a small official. In the past, he was just the family of a small official. But it was different this time, the Prime Minister''s Estate was not someone they dared to touch, even the beautiful servants of the Prime Minister''s Estate did not have such thoughts.


    "What''s there to be afraid of? What can we do after we''ve done so much?" Zhang Cui Lan is about to marry to the Second Young Master Cao, so no one would be able to get his to be rich, but if she wants to be rich, he has to keep it a secret! " The moment Feng Ru Jun mentioned ''Zhang Cui Lan'', the expression on his face immediately changed, and became sinister.


    The man was vexed. Seeing that the beauty nearby was planning on enjoying herself first, he opened his arms and said, "Come ¡­" If this matter were to be discovered by the Cao Mansion or discovered by him, he would definitely implicate him.


    "Ugh ¡­" The man felt that the beauty in front of him was getting more and more blurry and his vision became darker and darker. He immediately shouted, "Bitch, you drug me!"


    "Haha, if I don''t drug you, are you going to waste it?" Feng Ru Jun was worried that this man, who never did anything proper, would drag him into the water afterwards. Ye Zichen looked at the man''s face full of anger, then moved towards the vase shelf without leaving a trace.


    "Slut!" The man shook his head violently as a thick palm viciously smashed against his head. He finally regained some clarity in his mind. He would first kill this beauty today before doing anything else. No ¡ª she couldn''t die! He wanted her to live a life worse than death! Slut, you dared to drug me? You must be tired of living!


    Feng Ru Jun was shocked, he never thought that the man who was about to fall down would regain his clarity of mind, and immediately used a vase to smash the man''s head. Unfortunately, the flower was crippled, and the man was not disabled.


    The man formed claws with his hands and grabbed Feng Ru Jun by the throat, saying each word: "Bitch, I''ll make you beg for death right now." With that, he directly threw Feng Ru Jun onto the bed. Bang! Ge La felt that the bed was about to collapse from the noise, and was shocked. She prayed that the bed did not collapse, or else her little life would definitely stay here today.


    The man let out a gurgling sound, and then ¡ª ¡ª Then he threw himself onto the bed. The two of them continued to fight.


    Ge La''s face turned pale white. Oh my, Feng Ru Jun, don''t struggle anymore. The crunching above her head was like the sound of a death knell. Her heart was in her throat.


    "Bitch ¡ª I''ll let you drug me ¡ª"


    "Pa!"


    "Slut ¡ª ¡ª ah ¡ª" No one knew what happened on the bed, but with a loud bang, Ge La almost cried out involuntarily. After the noise, there were no longer any movements on the bed! She did not dare to breathe too loudly. Instead, she shrunk closer to the bed.


    Feng Ru Jun got off the bed and walked a little unsteadily ¡­ Ge La stared at her feet as he walked out of the door, and then closed it. The surrounding area instantly became terrifyingly quiet! Ge La held her breath for a while. Seeing that there was no reaction from the bed, she became curious, where was she? Was she dead?


    He got up on all fours and turned his head to look at the bed. Oh, it really was dead. The man''s eyes were wide open as if he died with grievance. A very ordinary hairpin was stuck in his temples, and blood was flowing along his temples ¡­


    Not daring to stay any longer, Ge La immediately turned and left, adjusting her expression and leaving the inn''s main entrance, and returned to the Song Mansion without stopping. Today, when Old Lady Zhang wants to come to Song Mansion, Madame Song will arrange for Xi Jiu Er and Zhang Cui Lan to come meet him! Because Old Lady Zhang got sick on the way ¡­


    "Is the little Young Master back yet?" Ge La caught one of the servants and asked.


    "Nope."


    "What about the Miss Zhang?"


    "Also nothing ¡­"


    "..." "We''re finished ¡­" Ge La''s face changed as she rushed to Madame Song''s courtyard.

 C285

    In Charming Fragrance Garden, Xi Wan Feng was busy pruning the flowers on the potted plants, it was usually the servants who did this before. Today, since she had nothing better to do, she would prune the potted plants and take a look, causing ''kacha kacha kacha'' sounds to sound out of shape in her hands.


    "Lady Fragrance, the sun isn''t too bad today. How about we go out for a walk?" shook his head, threw away the kernels that was given to him by the servant and wiped his hands: "Today, I heard that the women of the Southeastern Courtyard gave my most beloved ''Lilac'' to someone else?"


    mother of cinnamon indifferently replied with ''yes''. The woman from the Southeastern Courtyard was newly recruited by the Prime Minister. She had just been favored for a few days and Lawless had already fought against the Charming Fragrance Garden.


    He coldly harrumphed. That ''clove'' was not a good thing. Since she wanted it, he would give it to her. Xi Wan Feng sat down and asked the mother of cinnamon: "Then what happened to Ran Er when she followed me to the Fourth Prince''s Estate?"


    "Lady Fragrance, now called Jiu Er, was given the name by the fourth prince." The mother of cinnamon reported on the intelligence she had acquired: "The Fourth Prince has doted on her a lot. He asked for a doctor from the royal family, and immediately went to see her."


    The Fourth Prince was the man with the peerless appearance. Back then, she had only taken a quick glance at the teahouse ¡­ and it was already filled with shock and unparalleled beauty. Hearing that Feng Qing Cheng was treating the double so well, jealousy filled his face, and he nodded: "Jiu Er? "Tch, this is for the best. When the time is ripe, she will lose the reserved nature of a girl and take down the fourth prince''s heart and body."


    "Yes." mother of cinnamon replied. Ran Er was the one who made this request personally, so her way of speaking was extremely similar to Xi Jiu Er. Usually, she would teach Xi Jiu Er everything she liked to eat, wear, and do.


    The sun shone down on the courtyard with a peaceful and warm expression. Xi Wan Feng stared at the sunlight, her heart had long since become ice-cold, and no amount of sunlight was able to reach her heart.


    "Madame, the Prime Minister said that the marriage of Second Young Master Cao will be handed over to you." The servant beside Prime Minister Cao came over and said, Xi Wan Feng laughed: "Yes, I will trouble you to return to the Prime Minister, this matter will be handled well by me."


    The mother of cinnamon gave him a reward, and a smile finally appeared on his face as he looked at the departing figure: "Right now, Prime Minister believes in the Madame more and more, so everything is left to the Madame. In the future, Prime Minister Madame will be here soon."


    Not necessarily! Even though the mother of cinnamon was dressed in martial arts, her brain wasn''t sharp. The Prime Minister had died for more than ten years and the Prime Minister had doted on her women like cow hair. Becoming the Prime Minister''s Madame was just around the corner? This road must have been thousands of miles long and full of thorns.


    With so many things to do, Xi Wan Feng was no longer in a daze.


    Song Mansion''s face had already turned completely white. After listening to Ge La telling her everything that she had seen and heard, she quickly said, "stone mother, quickly send people to take a look. Absolutely not, definitely not ¡­"


    stone mother''s face also changed as she ran out.


    Madame Song clasped her hands together and recited a string of Buddhist scriptures before her expression turned pale, and said: "This Zhang Cui Lan is truly a disaster, I am afraid that she will not be able to live peacefully in Song Mansion for one day." However, the marriage was getting closer. If this person were to be placed outside the mansion, she would most likely have a conversation.


    "Madame, Madame ¡ª ¡ª Little Young Master is back!" stone mother lifted the curtain happily, then looked at the two pairs of worried eyes in the room and laughed: "Little Young Master is safe and sound, Miss Zhang is also safe and sound, both are safe and sound."


    Ge La''s anger dissipated and she immediately collapsed to the ground. It was good that nothing had happened.


    Madame Song touched her chest and said hurriedly: "Hurry up and let me take a look." The stone mother hurriedly carried the Madame Song by her hand and left the palace, and said in a low voice: "Madame, this Old Lady Zhang cannot take advantage of her seniority. I heard from the servants that she said she was sick, so this time it''s better to go pick her up. "Staying at home is a great disaster."


    With his eyes focused on them, Madame Song endured his anger and said: "Bear with it for a while, the wedding day is approaching, if you marry them, immediately get them out, and leave cleanly." The day was set by Cao Nan, the Madame Song did not understand why he was in such a hurry, only after thinking about it again did she understand, and was afraid that something bad had happened?


    At the entrance of the Song Mansion, it was difficult to conceal the proud expression on Old Lady Zhang''s face as she held onto Zhang Cui Lan''s hands and walked into the Song Mansion arrogantly. Behind her, was Xi Jiu Er, her skin was almost transparent under the sunlight, it was hard to imagine that a man would have such good skin!


    "Bang! Trash!" A carriage stopped not far from Song Mansion. Raising the curtain to reveal a pale and sickly woman''s face, a face the size of a palm twisted in anger.


    Who else could she be other than Feng Ru Jun? After killing the muscular man, he waited not far from the entrance of the Song Mansion. He thought that he would see the lonely figure of the Old Lady Zhang, but Song Tian not only was there, there was also that slut Zhang Cui Lan! Zhang Cui Lan had caused him to lose her dignity, Song Tian had once humiliated him, why hadn''t this dog-couple killed him?


    "Let''s go." She wouldn''t give up. Just wait. He threw the curtain down and the carriage left. Xi Jiu Er looked towards the carriage and seemed to be thinking about something.


    After returning to his residence, he heard what Ge La had said. Xi Jiu Er was not the least bit surprised, but instead smiled lightly. "I didn''t see that you had such guts. This Feng Ru Jun is so stupid that he was tricked, that big boss is confused, maybe he had a few clever men under him who investigated Zhang Cui Lan''s identity, although Song Mansion is not someone that can be trifled with, but this Prime Minister''s Estate is a tiger-like person, how would they dare to pull out the fangs of a tiger? "


    Ge La thought that this made sense. She still had lingering fear in her heart as she recalled how she would not be able to leave even if she were to be exposed on the bed.


    It''s almost winter, it''s rare to have such good weather, I was just about to go for a stroll in the garden when I heard a servant say that the Fourth Prince is here. Xi Jiu Er''s heart jumped, and suddenly walked towards the back door: "Ge La, let''s go and see the two servants from Cao Mansion."


    For the sake of safety, Ge La placed her in a tavern far away from Song Mansion. Only after taking a few deep breaths did Xi Jiu Er suppress the impatience in her heart.


    "Miss, don''t worry, we''ll be there in a moment!" Since when had she ever seen her master so relaxed and carefree with a smile on his face? It was as if he was a pool of water without any ripples. It was rare to see her so happy.


    Seeing that the two servant girls were both around fifteen or sixteen years old, and did not have any expression on their face, the calm one was Dong Mei, the timid looking maid was called Chun Yi. The two of them bowed towards Xi Jiu Er in gratitude for saving her life.


    "I didn''t save him for nothing... You must do something for me. " When Xi Jiu Er sat down, his elegant posture and eyes were clear and cold. Imperceptibly, the more Xi Jiu Er dealt with men, the more peaceful his personality became.

 C286

    Dong Mei and Chun Yi''s expressions changed. Dong Mei asked first: "Sir, what do you want us to do? Both Spring and Spring have been chased out by the Cao Mansion, so it has lost all value in being useful. "


    Chun Yi hurriedly nodded as she carefully glanced at Xi Jiu Er, as if she was extremely afraid.


    "I''m the only one who knows if the usage value is good or not." Xi Jiu Er didn''t dare to say it directly to Ge La, "Take Chun Zhi out, I have something to say to Dong Mei alone."


    Xi Jiu Er crossed her legs and bent down gracefully as she stared at Dong Mei. Up close, she could smell the young man''s unique and faint fragrance in front of her.


    Dong Mei''s heart could not help but thump, this Young Noble was truly as beautiful as jade.


    "Let me ask you, how many people do you know in the Lady Fragrance Academy? And the people in Cao Nan''s courtyard? Someone from the Grass Haze Courtyard? " The owner of the voice also had a carefree personality, only his eyes were blazing with passion, causing Dong Mei to be greatly shocked: "Little gongzi, what are you trying to do?"


    "That''s not something you should ask." Xi Jiu Er replied.


    Dong Mei smiled bitterly, she knew that she was just a servant, that wherever she went, the life and death of a servant would belong to her. Right now, she had a feeling that her life and death would be entirely under the control of the young master in front of her.


    "I know a few of the people in their courtyard." Dong Mei replied, "Madame just picked me to be your servant. Because I have a calm personality, I am allowed to do things, so I know everyone in the courtyard."


    "What''s the relationship?" Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    "Their relationship is normal, there was a servant girl in the courtyard of Lady Fragrance who was from the same village as me, but once, my father got sick and didn''t have any money to see a doctor, so I lent it to her. For one thing, we have a good relationship in private. At first, I thought she was just trying to get close to me. But gradually, I realized that she had a pure and kind personality and didn''t have much heart. And because of that, she was always bullied, doing menial work. "


    He was afraid that if he went, they would never meet again. He hoped that she would have a good life in the future. The master of the Charming Fragrance Garden was cold and heartless, she didn''t have the slightest bit of humanity towards servants. If she did something wrong, she would either be beaten to death or sold out. She was often bullied, alas ¡ª


    Xi Jiu Er indicated for her to continue, and Dong Mei blushed: "There''s a servant in Young Master Cao who has a good impression of me ¡­" That manservant had secretly helped him quite a bit, how could he not know his intentions? They were all servants, like duckweed that could not be controlled by themselves.


    Which woman doesn''t want to have an honest man? He could only miss it like this! Dong Mei continued, "The servants in the courtyard of Second Young Master Cao are all very lustful, we were able to avoid them even if we could, but we were afraid that something bad might happen ¡­" Without a doubt, to Dong Mei and Chun Yi, Cao Qing''s courtyard was as scary as a dragon''s lagoon or a tiger''s cave. There were so many women in the yard, and the manservant was the same as his master. Anyone who came into contact with him would suffer.


    Xi Jiu Er was quiet for a moment, then her eyes flashed with a thought: "Do you still have family?"


    Dong Mei shook her head: "Servant does not have any family members, I do have them."


    After a while, Xi Jiu Er fixed her gaze on Dong Mei: "I told you to do two things, if it succeeds, I will definitely give you a generous reward. If it fails, you know what fate awaits you."


    Dong Mei laughed at herself. Did she still have a choice? She had no other choice, "Please give your instructions, Young Master."


    "The first thing I ordered you to do was that I have a small tree. I want your hometown to place this tree in the courtyard of Lady Fragrance, and the closer you get to the door, the better. The second thing you need to do is for the servant who admires you to go to Cao Nan''s study room and steal a letter. "


    This, this first task was not difficult, but the second task was too risky. Xi Jiu Er bit her lips, thinking about how to refuse. Xi Jiu Er knew what she was thinking, "Tell that servant to sit well, and I''ll let him compare wings with you. He will live a male farming girl''s life in a place that Cao Nan can never find."


    "If he really likes you, I think he''ll make a choice for your future." An indescribable pain came from his heart as he raised his voice and called Ge La to come in. "Bring Dong Mei out.


    It was as if Dong Mei had not recovered from her shock and was taken out of the room by Ge La. Chun Yi timidly stood in front of Xi Jiu Er, his hands constantly rubbing against his skirt. Xi Jiu Er coldly laughed: "Stop pretending in front of me, speak human words to me properly."


    Chun Yi froze, her body stiffened like a rock. Finally, she stuttered: "Yes." There was indeed no sign of timidness or timidness, it was actually even more steady than what Dong Mei seemed to be.


    "With your temper, you should know quite a few of the secrets within the mansion. As long as you tell me, I''ll let you go back and reunite with your parents." After saying that, he took out his indenture contract and placed it on the table. "I''ll give you five hundred taels of silver to let your family live a good life."


    Chun Yi was stunned. She didn''t think that she would receive such a great benefit. If he didn''t believe it, it must be a lie! Chun Yi was silent, but Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows slightly: "You don''t believe me, right?"


    "Servant did not." Ever since she was five years old, she had been pretending to be a timid and cowardly person. Her stepfather, the mother, his brothers, and even the servants of the Prime Minister''s Estate did not notice that he had such a character. Even she believed that he was this kind of character in the first place.


    "With this indenture contract, I would be able to hold your life in my hands and sell you to a brothel for free. I will give you another chance to make a choice! " After she finished speaking, she took out another five hundred silver, clenched her teeth and stared at the banknotes, "Fine, Servant will believe you."


    "I have heard quite a bit about the Palace''s secret Servant s. I wonder if it''s true or not." After a moment of consideration, Chun Yi said: "There are a lot of women in Cao Mansion, so there are a lot of dirty things ¡­"


    "I forgot to tell you. I am interested in the Lady Fragrance, the Prime Minister Cao and the two Young Masters, and the other women do not want to hear it."


    "¡­" I heard that the Lady Fragrance gave it to you as a gift. " Everyone knew that the Prime Minister Cao was a neutral faction and never interfered with politics and politics. He thought that he would be able to see the astonishment on the other party''s face, but in the end, the other party remained calm and unperturbed. Could it be that the other party had already found out?


    "Once, Servant went out to comprehend something ¡­" Chun Yi glanced at Xi Jiu Er: "I heard that she had a private meeting with Young Master Cao beside the toilet!"


    Xi Jiu Er scoffed, "The two of you really know how to choose a place." She had walked around the Prime Minister Cao Mansion the other day and discovered that there were quite a few latrines set up outside. It was probably because there were so many people around.


    Chun Yi saw that the other party was sneering, but he was not surprised. He felt depressed in his heart.

    "Once, Servant went into the toilet with diarrhea in the middle of the night, and actually heard a secret told by Prince Rong." He noticed that Xi Jiu Er''s expression did not change and said, "Servant only heard a few words, it seems that Madame Feng''s son becoming a living corpse was caused by him. According to Prince Rong, it seems that he accidentally killed him."


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes suddenly became sharp, like flying daggers shooting over. "I have come into contact with the Prince Rong a few times, and there are details in the rough, how do you, a servant girl, know about this secret? If it''s just a coincidence, then it''s really too much of a coincidence. "


    The servant girl jumped in shock, pursed her lips and spoke honestly, "It was probably something that happened two years ago. When Servant heard that Prince Rong returned to his residence as a guest, she was at that time an imperial concubine with great honor and pampered by the emperor. Everyone is optimistic that Prince Rong will definitely be able to obtain great treasures in the future. So ¡ª Servant wanted to take this opportunity to test his future. Knowing that Prince Rong was drunk, he quietly waited on the path that he had to take. Unexpectedly, he met Young Master Cao, who could not advance or retreat rashly, and could only wait on the spot for Young Master to leave. He did not expect the Eldest Young Master to be waiting for the Prince Rong and say that the Feng Family was currently looking for the cause of death of Great Young Master Feng. It was also at that time that Servant learned that Young Master Cao and Prince Rong had colluded to let the prince handle matters. After the incident, the Servant became extremely afraid and became even more cautious. After that, he also discovered a lot of secrets, afraid that someone would find him somewhere else and live in fear everyday. "


    He could only lower his head and say in a low voice: "Servant, after Servant found out about Young Master Cao''s and Lady Fragrance''s secret, he was extremely afraid and did not go out for the rest of the night. He did not have any other thoughts, and only thought of doing things, if he did do things well, he might even be able to marry a young servant, and the better thing was to release him, and follow father and live a quiet life in a remote place."


    Being pampered by the Lady Fragrance and having extremely ruthless means, the Young Master Cao was not easy to deal with. If any of them were to discover his, she would not be able to live. She cautiously opened his mouth day and night, not even daring to speak any words that shouldn''t have been said. He didn''t dare to sleep to death in the middle of the night, afraid that someone would kidnap his and silence her. With such a state of panic, her character couldn''t even utter a single word, and the number of staff he had became fewer and fewer.


    Xi Jiu Er looked into Chun Yi''s eyes to determine if what she said was true or not, then raised his hand and gave Chun Yi the indenture contract and gave her another five hundred silver. All of this happened too fast, it was too much for Chun Yi to imagine that Xi Jiu Er would actually keep her promise, he stared blankly at the 500 taels of silver in his hands, as though he was a statue motionless, and had not yet recovered from his shock.


    "Young master, thank you young master, thank you young master." She had always wondered why her luck was so bad. Every time she went out in the middle of the night, she would see a secret. Only now did she realize that she had been preparing for this moment.


    "Take your father and leave quickly. Remember, you must not leak any information. If anyone else asks you how you escaped from this place, you can just say that you met a kind-hearted old Madame. Xi Jiu Er saw that her eyebrows were bent, eyes were big, and her expression did not seem to be different from Liu Xiang''s, causing her heart to heat up.


    "Young Master''s great kindness today will never be forgotten. I will pray for Young Master on the incense stick day after day in the house. Young Master''s life is a hundred years old, without illness or pain."


    "Get up. I''m very grateful to you for having such a kind heart." Xi Jiu Er laughed, and waved her off. Chun Yi carefully placed the silver into her pocket and patted it, she turned back and bowed deeply towards Xi Jiu Er before she left.


    thought about the secrets that Chun Yi told him, then looked at the time and asked Ge La to give her a hundred silver taels. He would be holding onto her indenture contract and whether or not he could make the best of it was up to her.


    "Little Young Master, come out, you haven''t eaten yet." Ge La followed them out as her stomach rumbled. As she passed by a restaurant, she felt even hungrier. Instead of "gulu gulu" sounds of protest, Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Let''s go."


    It took some effort for him to save the money, so he intentionally disguised himself as a rich person''s maidservant and deposited the 400 taels of silver into the ticket store. After that, he dressed up properly and went to find his father. The springtime mother loathed poverty and loved wealth. After marrying her again, he bought her a marriage. He thought to himself that if her daughter could be rich, they could also bask in the glory.


    Later on, he realized that Chun Yi was just a good-for-nothing, so he gave up on her. Chun Yi''s father was an honest farmer. He thought that his daughter would live a good life with the mother and after finding out that his daughter had been bought, he followed her to the Yan Du and went to a grocery store to clean the backyard.


    They were both abandoned people, and the father and daughter became more and more attached to each other. When Chun Yi arrived at the grocery store, he saw his honest father being bullied by the Lady Boss. The Lady Boss''s eyes were filled with happiness, don''t think that she had any ideas.


    "I brought you here to work. Why are you still talking to me? Hurry up." The Lady Boss frowned and said angrily, "Be careful that I don''t say anything and let you sleep on the street."


    Chun Yi''s father was ugly and tall. He didn''t want to hire him in many places, so he treasured this job very much. He swallowed his anger and allowed the Lady Boss to beat him up. He then started to work hard with the broom in hand.


    "Are you blind? Can''t you see that this place has one too? "And there, there ¡­" The Lady Boss pointed at her plump fingers and randomly pointed at them. She felt that her father had been humiliated and thought of how she had already stripped herself of her servant status. How could she possibly be afraid of him? He immediately rushed over, grabbed his father, and angrily glared at the Lady Boss. "Don''t go too far!"


    "Yo, so it''s you." The Lady Boss seemed to be enjoying the show, as she looked up and down before sneering, "I was wondering who it was." She did not put Chun Yi in her heart at all. If Chun Yi was really living a good life in Cao Mansion, she would definitely not let her father lead such a life.


    "What''s wrong with me? "Hmph, stop with your little thoughts. Don''t you know what you are? You''re as fat as a pig and disgusting." Without the slightest fear, Chun Yi stood in front of her father and faced off against the Lady Boss.


    "You, you ¡­" The Lady Boss hated it when people called her fat, but also hated it when people called her a pig. Her fat face immediately became the color of a pig''s liver as she pointed at Chun Yi and bellowed, "Scram! Scram right now!"


    "Hmph, scram? Pay your wages first. " Chun Yi gave her father a reassured look and returned a greeting from the Lady Boss. "If you don''t give me the money, I will report it to the yamen."

 C288

    "Yo, have your wings hardened?" The Lady Boss''s heart skipped a beat. Seeing how the little girl was different from before, her momentum also increased, could it be that she had gained a favor recently? He quickly changed the topic, "If you want to give it to me, then give it to me."


    It was enough to pay him, so he put the money in his pocket and left after a cold snort. Before she left, she originally wanted to take out the indenture contract to let that despicable woman have a look, but after some thought, she realized that she wasn''t a servant. The Cao family was now related to her, and the Lady Boss was worried about her because of the Cao family.


    "Father, let''s go." Chunyi bought a carriage, haggled for a while, then the father and daughter went to Dong Mei''s hometown. She heard from Dong Mei that her hometown was a place with simple and beautiful folk customs, and it was not bad.


    "My daughter, you ¡­ where did you get this silver?" "Five taels of silver at once. Good boy, did you steal something ¡­" Thinking about it made him scared.


    "Father, what are you talking about? How could your daughter do such a thing? "Come, daughter will show you what this is." He took out the indenture contract and showed it to his father. The man immediately said excitedly, "You, you''ve taken off your servant status?"


    "Yes." Chun Yi smiled and said, "I''m giving my daughter a hundred taels of silver as a reward. When the time comes, we''ll go buy a courtyard and live a peaceful life."


    "Alright." The man laughed until his tears were wiped away, while his rough hands were covered with tender white hands. When he opened his eyes, he saw his daughter''s blissful smile. "Father, our days will get better and better."


    "I will." The man also smiled with a face full of happiness.


    Returning to the Song Mansion, Xi Jiu Er pulled over and asked: "Has the Fourth Prince left yet?"


    "Let''s go."


    smiled and said: "It''s fine, you can go now." He slowly walked through the garden with his hands behind his back, staring at the monotonous flowers in a daze. Gla guessed that this had something to do with the fourth prince.


    "Eh? What is this? " Ge La let out a strange cry and walked into the flower courtyard to squat down. Ge La curiously followed and looked at the little flower in Xi Jiu Er''s hand, and when she saw it, she felt that it looked a little familiar. She suddenly said: "Isn''t that the flower that was on the old mother''s robe? She said it was a wildflower, and it''s true. "


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t think that way, the flower garden was under the control of the Madame Song, even if she was pregnant, she would still instruct the servants to watch over it, the weeds and the like were all pulled out cleanly. Looking at the wild flower in her hand, she saw that it had grown quite tall and had not been plucked. There were also a lot of things around him, as if they were left there on purpose.


    "Let''s go." ''s face did not look good. Other than her, there was also Song Yun Shan. The atmosphere was tense. Something must have happened.


    "Father, mother, I''m back."


    "Come back, hurry up and take a seat. Have a taste of mother''s new pastry." Madame Song pulled Xi Jiu Er over to sit on her own lower body and pushed him over to a plate of carefully prepared pastries. Xi Jiu Er did not ask, and after cleaning her hands, she ate a piece, and felt that the instant she eat the pastries, there was an indescribable taste in her mouth: "Delicious, mother''s cooking is really good."


    "Good child, eat more if it''s delicious." Madame Song choked on her sobs as her eyes turned red. The stone mother at the side patted her arm without revealing any traces of her, and laughed: "What is in the little Young Master''s hand, are they flowers?"


    "Oh, about that, I want to ask mother what is that thing." Xiao Hua was handed over to Madame Song as he exchanged glances with Song Yun Shan. The latter had a face full of guilt and self-blame. Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, it was indeed related to him.


    "This ¡­" Madame Song held the little flower and immediately recognized it, "This is called the Loose Earth Flower, don''t make it have a small use for it. If you plant it, you can attract a type of worm on the ground, and the insect can loosen the soil. The specific role of the flower is also not very clear to mother, he only knows that after growing it, the flowers will blossom even better. "


    "How did you get the mother?"


    "It was given to me by a Madame who also likes to grow flowers. It''s a pity that I died when I was a good person." Madame Song looked gloomy, but Xi Jiu Er stopped chasing him. Waving her hand to let the servants off, she asked: "Father, mother, what happened?"


    The Madame Song held the kernels up to his face, unwilling to speak any further. As if there was something Song Yun Shan couldn''t say, he said: "The Fourth Prince came just now, and said that the Emperor''s intentions were to have the little Young Master follow the Master to the north. Because of this, the Emperor has been hesitant about this matter, so the decree has yet to be passed down."


    Xi Jiu Er''s face changed slightly, Ge La who was behind him exclaimed, Go to the battlefield? A woman on the battlefield? Ge La suddenly turned and stared at Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Father, what is going on with mother, if our country is in trouble, if our son does not help, then when will she? The nation is responsible for its rise and fall. "


    "Tian ¡­" Madame Song called out and smiled, "Tian''er has grown up." Holy intents were hard to defy, and were not something they could defy in the end.


    "Madame, I want to talk to Tian''er alone. Rest well for a while." Initially, his intention was only to let Xi Jiu Er pretend to be Song Tian and make the Madame Song happy, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen? Wasn''t it suicide for a woman to flow to the battlefield?


    "Alright." Madame Song held onto stone mother''s hand and left while wiping her tears.


    In the study room, Song Yun Shan said with an apologetic and guilty look on his face, "I''m sorry, I''ve implicated you. Otherwise, the fourth prince will think of a way not to go. "


    Xi Jiu Er''s face was gloomy, she did not say a word, as though she was thinking about other things, and did not take Song Yun Shan''s words to heart. If you really want to go... Then some things had to be considered in advance. Fourth Prince and Prince Rong had already torn off their faces because of the marriage alliance between Zhang Cui Lan and Second Young Master Cao. If anyone were to say another word of the Song Family in front of the Emperor now, the Emperor would definitely be suspicious. "


    "You mean, if the emperor insists that you go with me ¡­" You have no choice? " Xi Jiu Er knew that the Fourth Prince couldn''t say it in one sentence, and could only rely on a single thought from the Emperor. Song Yun Shan suddenly broke into a cold sweat. What if Xi Jiu Er escaped right before the battle, how could he possibly find a ''Song Tian'' and bring him back?


    "Don''t worry, I won''t run. I will follow you to the battlefield." Xi Jiu Er was not worried about her life. She had the spring water, what was there to be afraid of with the herbs? It was because of how long the battle had lasted that long that her matters had been delayed.


    This was the first time Song Yun Shan felt respect towards a girl. It was already a very rare thought that she would not flee in a life and death situation, but what made him feel a sense of respect was that there was never been a sense of fear in his eyes.

 C289

    "Thank you very much." Song Yun Shan cupped his hands together with a face full of gratitude.


    "No need." Xi Jiu Er didn''t take it to heart at all, "I want to calm down, and invite Master Song out."


    Once Song Yun Shan left, Xi Jiu Er called for him. "Let that Dong Mei settle this matter tomorrow, my patience has its limits."


    "Yes." Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath, and calculated the location of the rose flower with her hand on her chest. A delicate fragrance assaulted him, and he was immediately shocked, turning her head to see a touch of white in her eyes, as though she was a fairy that was unreachable. The pain in her heart did not come as she calmed herself down and said, "I still need the Fourth Prince to help with something."


    "You and I are husband and wife, there''s no need to be so courteous." Feng Qing Cheng sat down next to Xi Jiu Er, pulled Xi Jiu Er and planned to hug her tightly. However, he was shook off by Xi Jiu Er, "I have proper business with you."


    "Come here." Feng Qing Cheng''s face instantly darkened with a killing intent, she puckered her lips and looked at him coldly, not giving in at all. His embrace was taken by another woman, and the scene on the Prince Rong''s birthday became a thorn in her heart forever. The two of them took in a cold breath as they reached a stalemate.


    "Come here! Don''t let me say it a second time. " Feng Qing Cheng seemed to be extremely patient, her beautiful face revealed a terrifying expression, making people not dare to get any closer. But who was Xi Jiu Er? The more he did this, the more she disagreed, and I did not.


    Having seen through Xi Jiu Er''s plans, Feng Qing Cheng pulled Xi Jiu Er into his embrace with lightning speed, grabbed her chin and forced her to look him in the eye: "Why are you running today?" He could recognize those eyes even if they turned into ashes. His expression turned cold and his eyes changed ¡­


    "I have something to do." Xi Jiu Er frowned: "You''re hurting me, let go."


    His eyes were different now. In the past, she could still see the emotions from his eyes, but now, they were all gone, replaced with a deep hidden loathing. He suddenly hugged Xi Jiu Er tightly in his arms and said: "You''re lying, running the moment you see me, I saw you leaving through the back door."


    Xi Jiu Er did her best to not be curious why Feng Qing Cheng''s personality was changing so much. After Feng Qing Cheng finished carrying her, she patiently said: "Find someone from the mother of cinnamon beside Xi Wan Feng and chop her into pieces."


    "Didn''t you say that you wouldn''t let me get involved in the matter regarding revenge?"


    "¡­" Xi Jiu Er heard his tone returning to her usual self, and decided to push Feng Qing Cheng away, because the smell on his body was very nice, if he continued to smell, she would not be able to take it. She couldn''t help but roll her eyes when she felt someone hugging him tightly. A man was really greedy. He ate the bowl and looked at the pot.


    "Do what you say." Feng Qing Cheng''s head was buried under Xi Jiu Er''s neck, breathing in the fragrance from her hair, sounding very satisfied and satisfied.


    Xi Jiu Er breathed in the scent on his body, and felt the rose flower in her chest started to ache again: "There''s one more mother beside Xi Wan Feng, you can kill one more, and when I return from the north, you can stop."


    ''s scorching aura sprayed over, bringing along a tingling heat. "I won''t let you go to the north, you''re still pregnant with my child, what''s there to be done about it?"


    Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. "The orders of the Emperor can''t be changed by anyone, so you shouldn''t interfere in order to prevent the Emperor from becoming suspicious." She spoke out her thoughts objectively, but no one knew what Feng Qing Cheng was laughing at.


    "I have my own ways, don''t worry." Feng Qing Cheng said in a gloomy tone.


    Xi Jiu Er no longer continued on this topic, and asked impatiently: "How much longer do you want to hug? Go back and hug your little beauty. " If he wanted to hug her, she could do so. If she didn''t want to care, then what had she become?


    "Are you jealous?" Feng Qing Cheng held onto Xi Jiu Er''s shoulders tightly, looking at her expression, she was jealous? He did not even see the shadow of vinegar!


    Xi Jiu Er tilted her head and looked at Feng Qing Cheng. Was she jealous? No way! Both of her shoulders were in pain, but she had no idea what kind of crazy man this was. She opened her eyes wide in dissatisfaction and shouted, "What are you trying to do? If there''s nothing else, you can leave now. "


    "What do you want?" Feng Qing Cheng suddenly smiled again, and his smile had yet to reach his eyes. "Of course it''s you." Xi Jiu Er felt like she was looking at a ghost when such vulgar words came out of the man''s mouth. She suspected that Feng Qing Cheng was also pretending.


    "You, what are you doing?" Feng Qing Cheng tugged on Xi Jiu Er''s hand, as though her hand was a poisonous snake. Xi Jiu Er was puzzled, and said blankly: "Let''s see if you are pretending, you are not the same as the person I knew in the past."


    Feng Qing Cheng heaved a sigh of relief, and pulled her two hands into his big hands, then used his other hand to cover his chest and pulled open the bib. He was stunned for a moment, and then in the next moment, he ripped open his chest and saw many enchanting roses blooming on his snow-white skin!


    With a boom, Feng Qing Cheng lowered his head and stretched out his tongue to smell the fragrance of the flowers. The more he thought about Xi Jiu Er''s delicate body, the hotter her lower abdomen became. Xi Jiu Er was so embarrassed that her face flushed red, "Bastard, what are you doing? Stop it, shut your mouth!"


    "Do you know that I sometimes dream about that night ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng''s fiery hot words of love were a bit too much for a girl like her who had never experienced it before. Gritting her lips and thinking about him, she immediately became much clearer, and her eyes became wide open as she shouted: "You, stop right now." Her face was flushed red, and even her skin had a faint rouge on it.


    As if he could smell the rich fragrance of the flowers, Feng Qing Cheng''s hands became extremely impolite, and his mouth could already drip water, "Jiu Er, you can''t stop ¡­"


    What? Couldn''t stop? Even if he couldn''t stop, he still had to. Under the clear sky, this man couldn''t really be thinking, right? Clenching his teeth, Xi Jiu Er planned to retreat and coax them: "How was tonight?"


    "I can''t wait anymore ¡­ I want it now. " Looking up, Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes which were filled with desire made Xi Jiu Er feel her entire body go soft, she bit her lips and brought out her last excuse: "I''ll be carrying a child, and hurt it."


    "I''ll be careful." Feng Qing Cheng brought Xi Jiu Er to bed like the wind, and once the curtain closed, it became much dimmer, making the atmosphere in the little world more ambiguous. When Feng Qing Cheng''s head of black hair fell down, her peerless appearance could only be seen with both eyes. Xi Jiu Er''s face turned cold, and she threw away Xi Jiu Er''s human skin mask, dispelling the last of her worries, "I have my guards wait outside, no one will come in."


    "You ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was instantly speechless... She didn''t know what to say. Since she had already reached this stage and was struggling to resist, it was obvious that she was unable to do so.


    "Jiu Er... Jiu Er, my Jiu Er ¡­ " After a series of murmurs, Xi Jiu Er felt dizzy, but Feng Qing Cheng didn''t let her think about it too much. Dammit, I let him succeed this time. Next time ¡­

 C290

    Today, when Little Blood was outside, the servants busily changed everything in the room, bustling about, afraid to disturb Xi Wan Feng who was standing in the corridor. Seeing her face as cold as the sky, the servants kept quiet and did not dare make a sound, minding their own business.


    She hadn''t seen snow for a long time. Ever since she had Xi Jiu Er, her days were getting worse and worse, and now that she had no relatives or relatives, not to mention that she had fallen from first talented girl to someone else''s, she had become a chess piece. When was such a life going to end?


    With a cold gaze, Xi Wan Feng''s dazed look disappeared completely. She needed to live a human''s life and there would be a day when she would be free from the fate of being a chess piece. As he thought about it, he felt that serving a pig was not bad, at least he felt better.


    The inside of the house started to get warm, so mother of cinnamon found her a cloak. "Madame, let''s go inside. It''s cold outside."


    "I want to go for a walk." After Xi Wan Feng finished speaking, she already started walking towards the snow dance, her body was extremely delicate, making people feel tender towards him. The mother of cinnamon ordered the maidservants to bring an umbrella and follow them. The two of them walked around quietly.


    "It''s from the Southeastern Courtyard ¡­" The cultivators of mother of cinnamon looked into the distance and saw a group of people coming over from afar. The lady in the lead had a pretty face, and she looked like a ball of tender and beautiful fire that carried the aura of a young girl. There were many girls surrounding her, and all of them were beautiful women.


    Recently, Prime Minister Cao had already been going to the Southeastern Courtyard for five or six days, but Xi Wan Feng did not care at all.


    Xi Wan Feng spent all his time trying his best to act amicable in Prime Minister Cao, even his iron body would not be able to take it, he wished that he could go and enjoy life with other girls. Once he recovered, it wouldn''t be too late to slowly win over and pamper her. She was someone from the Prince Rong, she wouldn''t treat him coldly.


    As the crowd grew larger, why couldn''t they see Xi Wan Feng''s seductive appearance? Other than the young lady dressed in fiery red, the other girls'' expressions all changed: Lady Fragrance! He didn''t expect to meet this evil woman, what if he was implicated? Everyone was nervous.


    "What are you afraid of? It''s not like she''s going to eat you. Look at how cowardly all of you are. You''re useless!" The fiery red girl shouted. Her flaunting beauty was as eye-catching as a burning flame. Xi Wan Feng immediately understood why the Prime Minister Cao doted on her. It gave her a feeling of youth and vigor.


    "Lady Fragrance." Although they were all from Madame, they were still favoured by others, unless the fiery red figure had bowed and moved a step away from the girl. At first glance, it looked like there was nothing wrong, but upon closer inspection, it seemed like the girl had already been isolated.


    "Miss Shui Er." Xi Wan Feng smiled slightly, he naturally could not say anything else. Everyone sighed, this girl was like a fox spirit, born to seduce men.


    Miss Shui Er was left behind after an official of the Prime Minister Cao came to the palace to pay her respects. He said that she would be allowed to visit the manor for a few days, but in reality, that was just to please the Prime Minister Cao. Right now, everyone was still calling her Miss Shui Er, and it was unknown when they would start calling her Madame.


    Shui Er? It should be called Little Flame.


    "Oh, so it''s the Lady Fragrance. Why did you come out on such a cold day? Aren''t you worried about freezing yourself to death?" Shui Er raised her eyebrows, and looked at the other party with a complacent expression, showing off an extremely prideful attitude.


    In Xi Wan Feng''s eyes, this was extremely childish, and it was extremely disdainful as he glanced at her indifferently. Being looked down upon, Shui Er immediately became unhappy, and he sarcastically said, "I guess I''ll have to sleep alone for the next few nights."


    "Miss Shui Er, do you want us to take a walk in the garden?"


    "Yeah, going to the garden isn''t bad."


    "Scram, I want to go with you." "Her ability to serve men is just a bit better. Just look at you guys, you''re like mice that have seen a cat, you''re useless." Shui Er''s rosy cheeks was especially tender, her red, tender, and red lips formed into a mocking smile: "Lady Fragrance, other people might be afraid of you, but I''m not. At that time, let''s see who will be the one laughing at the end, hmph."


    With that, he arrogantly brushed past Xi Wan Feng''s body, with the attitude of a victor. Looking at the latter''s face, it was as if he was disdainful to argue with her, but in comparison, Shui Er''s action was like a clown jumping around.


    The girls all looked at each other and bowed, then used all sorts of excuses to leave. Xi Wan Feng snorted coldly, as though he did not care. Shui Er''s leaving figure caused her eyes to widen. In that instant, she thought of Xi Wan Rong, her little sister.


    "Great Young Master!" A green-robed man walked in from afar, his handsome bearing extraordinary. Xi Wan Feng seemed to have vaguely seen Song Tian in front of him, in just a breath of time, Cao Nan had already walked in, his gaze passionate.


    mother of cinnamon stood not far away as she listened to everything around him.


    "What''s the matter with you?" Seeing her lonely expression, Cao Nan''s heart also inexplicably became disappointed. After pulling Xi Wan Feng down to a dead end, he couldn''t help but stroke her cheek: "I''ve missed you so much these past few days."


    His face was filled with the color of a little girl, and the palm that covered Cao Nan seemed to be filled with grief: "Think about it, I am already satisfied. The night Prime Minister mentioned to me that you have already reached the age of marriage ¡­ I''m afraid that you miss me now. With this beauty, you have already forgotten about me. "


    Seeing that his trusted aide was on the verge of tears, Cao Nan could no longer resist the urge to pull her into his arms. "How could that be? The only person I love the most is you. The other women are nothing more than mediocre powder and can''t even compare to a single finger of yours. "


    Xi Wan Feng did not feel anything from Cao Nan, his heart was numb. Seeing Cao Nan''s sorrowful face, she only wanted to cooperate, "I''m very happy to hear you say these words. I only know that you''re thinking about me in your heart, and that''s enough.


    "Xiang''er ¡­" Cao Nan was very touched and he let out a lonely laugh. People were passing by the garden, Cao Nan did not dare to continue cuddling up even though he had a thousand words to say. He unwillingly let go of his hands and took a deep look at her, then left with the snowflakes.


    Humph, men all have sharp tongues, and all they say is bullshit. Furious, Xi Wan Feng waved for the mother of cinnamon to come over, and stole one of Shui Er''s undergarments, quietly placing it under his pillow. Remember, you must not let anyone detect it. "


    "Yes."


    The night was late, so Cao Qing went to Cao Nan''s room to complain, and insisted on not getting married. Cao Nan impatiently sent him out, and told a servant to bring him back to wake up.


    Cao Qing drank the Soup Dumplings and looked at the beauty who was slowly approaching in a daze.


    The servant girl left dejectedly, thinking that her luck was bad, she finally found a chance today and didn''t want to run into a wall.

    Cao Qing sniffed at the sky and smelled a woman''s fragrance, then extended his hand out to his pillow and opened it up. Yo, a red peony apron! As his body warmed up, he took it over and carefully smelled it, and he immediately knew who it was. The others did not have this incense yet, but in the entire house, only one person had this incense on him: Shui Er!


    Ever since Shui Er entered the Cao Mansion, he had started to think about her, wanting to enjoy life on her own once his father''s freshness had passed. Now that I smell this apron, what does this woman mean? Was it some hint to him? After Cao Qing laughed, a plan came to mind.


    The only thing he was afraid of in this mansion was Cao Nan! The more he thought about it, the more Cao Qing felt uncomfortable. He summoned the servants and asked: "Where did my father go tonight?"


    "Back to the Second Young Master, to the Charming Fragrance Garden of the Lady Fragrance."


    "Alright, come with me." Cao Qing casually put on his clothes and took out a small red porcelain bottle from the treasure box. The servants who were nearby immediately knew what kind of medicine it was, and thought to themselves: Didn''t the Second Young Master not want women? Which woman''s bed are you going to crawl into today? Earlier, he asked where the Master was.


    "Second Young Master, you want to go ¡­" Inside Lady Shui Er''s house? Before the servant could say anything, Cao Qing had already left.


    There were still seven or eight women living in Shui Er''s courtyard. She did not have a single room to herself since the other women in the courtyard were not favoured by her. Only Xi Wan Feng''s favoured woman would be able to live in a courtyard alone. Previously, they had fawned over Shui Er because they thought that they would be able to get a share of the cake if the Prime Minister Cao came.


    It was a peaceful night, so Cao Qing found his way to Shui Er''s room and fumbled his way in. Where did Shui Er go to sleep? At night, they ran to the Charming Fragrance Garden. This was a slap in the face for them.


    "Who?" Shui Er was in the middle of sulking when she heard a sound coming from the outer room''s door. She thought that it would be a servant but when she heard the person''s voice, she immediately became alert. She was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but her heart was actually very simple.


    "Little beauty, I''m here!" Cao Qing''s voice sounded from the dark room. Upon hearing that it wasn''t a bandit, Shui Er immediately let out a breath of relief, and then she raised his voice and cried out: "You, what are you doing in here? Get out of here."


    "Why did I come in? Of course, I came at your invitation." In the darkness, Cao Qing''s pig face looked just like a terrifying ghost face. Wasn''t the undergarment that he was holding in her hand her own?


    He pointed to his undergarment and asked, "This, this, why is it with you?"


    "Of course it''s from you, Beauty!" Cao Qing even shamelessly inhaled with all his might, as if he was inhaling the world''s best scent. "Smells good, smells really good."


    "You ¡­ "Shameless." Shui Er hated Cao Qing. Although the father and son looked similar, the Prime Minister Cao had a dignified and reserved personality, unlike Cao Qing who was a ruffian and hated people to the core. Just looking at them was enough to make people want to puke. Thus, he still liked the Prime Minister Cao a little more.


    "Aiya, that''s what I like to call you." Cao Qing took out a porcelain bottle and ate a pill, she rubbed her hands together and rushed towards Shui Er. The next morning, a maidservant''s call was heard. It was so loud that the entire courtyard knew about it.


    Everyone knew that ''Second Young Master Cao slept with Lady Shui Er'' during breakfast. Xi Wan Feng bit his lips and brought a servant out of the house in order to nominate a robe for Prime Minister Cao. In reality, he wanted to take a walk around.


    It was cold outside, the wind was blowing from time to time, and there were few people on the road. The carriage was unobstructed. Suddenly, Xi Wan Feng saw a person, and his entire body went ice-cold. Yan Er!


    Madame Yan? The woman her father loved most! Wasn''t she dead? Xi Wan Feng was confused. He stared at Yan Er''s figure as if he wanted to see a hole. Xi Wan Feng stared at her luxurious and extraordinary robes and bellowed: Stop.


    Xi Wan Feng raised the curtain on the carriage and supported the servant with his hands, calling the beautiful lady dressed in noble clothes:, please hold on.


    Dressed in the attire of a noble woman, Yan Er should be called the Fourth Concubine now: Meng Ru Yan! She turned her head and glanced at the approaching person. She already knew Xi Wan Feng''s true identity, so she asked: ", you called me?"


    "Yes." Xi Wan Feng''s smile did not falter, and he laughed: "Madame looks very similar to an old friend I know, I wonder who you are?"


    The maidservant by his side had a haughty look on his face. "This is the fourth prince''s consort." Just by looking at the woman in front of him, he could tell that she was not a good person. She had a demonic aura around her.


    "Fourth prince''s consort?" Xi Wan Feng was not small. It was rumored that the Fourth Prince and his imperial concubine were both extremely beautiful people, to the point where they could overturn empires with a single look. What caused her to be even more shocked was that the identity of the woman in front of her was even colder and more noble than Yan Er. Previously, Yan Er was like a lotus flower that made people unable to profane, but this person actually had an extraordinary noble aura. At first glance, apart from their similar appearances, they were basically the same person.


    There was actually such a similar person in this world? Xi Jiu Er''s appearance was very normal, it was not strange that she looked similar, but the lady in front of him was different, it was rare to see her appearance, it was not something that could be found easily. Carrying doubts in her heart, Xi Wan Feng bowed: "I''ve disturbed the mood of the Fourth Prince''s consort!"


    Meng Ru Yan looked at her indifferently, then left with his servant.


    In Song Mansion, when Xi Jiu Er said that the Fourth Prince''s consort was here, half of his sleepiness immediately disappeared. With a wave of his hand, Ge La withdrew himself. "Don''t bother me anymore."


    After approximately half an incense worth of time, Xi Jiu Er woke up to see a woman with a refined appearance sitting in front of a table. Seeing her wake up, he smiled. "We meet again."


    "Ge La, wait at the door." Xi Jiu Er stood up and instructed, she sat beside Meng Ru Yan: "How have you been?"


    "Everything is fine." Meng Ru Yan seemed to sigh, "I never expected us to meet in such a situation." He stared at the human skin mask for a while and didn''t know what to say. He silently stared at the tea in his cup and didn''t say anything.


    Xi Jiu Er was also silent.


    "Let''s talk about the fourth prince." Meng Ru Yan seemed to have found a topic to talk about, and his face became lively: "The Fourth Prince and I are not husband and wife, it''s just a family alliance, that''s all. As for the Xi Family, it''s all our doing! Xi Hong Sheng and I have never had anything happen to each other, so I would give him medicine every night.


    Xi Jiu Er interrupted: "I don''t want to know this, don''t say anymore."


    "Jiu Er..." Meng Ru Yan choked, seeing the unnoticeable pain in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, she sighed: "Fourth Prince -"


    "Don''t tell me about that lunatic, I don''t want to hear about it." Xi Jiu Er said softly. She did not want to see Meng Ru Yan, so when she saw him, she immediately thought of his deceit.

 C292

    Madman? Meng Ru Yan stared at Xi Jiu Er in shock, as if he had used the word ''madman'' to describe Feng Qing Cheng, and when he saw the anger and hatred on''s handsome face, he smiled: "I think there must be some misunderstanding between the two of you, because Qingcheng''s personality is rather temperamental, but he is way worse than a madman."


    "Qingcheng was the illegitimate son of the Wind Nation''s Emperor. After finding out that his identity was the Queen and assassinating him multiple times, he was barely alive. At that time, he was only six or seven years old. Later on, the empress lost and died in the cold palace, implicating not only the empress and the crown prince, but also the entire family. Back then, the soft consort entered the palace and obtained a favor, leaving the Prince Rong to plan for his son''s future, and at the same time, assassinate Qingcheng. Qingcheng learned from its experiences and hid in every corner, secretly cultivating its own power, then it will have the Fourth Prince today. " Meng Ru Yan advised with all his heart: "He was once extremely afraid when he was young and he was always worried that someone would come to assassinate him. The witnesses that came after him became suspicious after a long time, and it was at that time that he started to have a bit of a personality ¡­ Some... "It''s uncertain, but it''s up to you whether you like it or not."


    "Haha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er sneered, everything that Feng Qing Cheng did was not able to move him at all, she was not that well off either. First Lady and her daughter had tried to kill him secretly, but on the surface, they were like snakes, acting like their dear mother. Everyone had a terrible past, could it be that everyone was going crazy?


    Meng Ru Yan looked at Xi Jiu Er and sighed: "I know that you always have a cold heart, but don''t think about it. The enemies that you face are all within your reach, and they are only women''s methods that cannot be revealed to others. However, Qingcheng is different. His opponent is the Royal Family''s most favored woman, and behind her is a Pang Ran Family. The enemy is secretly making it hard for others to guard against them, just in case they lose their lives. "


    These words struck right at Xi Jiu Er, but she pursed her lips and did not look at Meng Ru Yan, and stubbornly said: "He lied to me!" This was something she absolutely could not tolerate!


    "What would I lie to you about?" Meng Ru Yan was amused by Xi Jiu Er''s childish look. "Men need to be careful in their plans when they plan to achieve great things. If I tell you everything, it might not be good for you to know. He didn''t tell you because she was thinking for your sake. Even though you''ve returned back to being a man, you''re still a woman after all, and you''re disguised as a man. With him in such a precarious situation, how can she protect you? "


    "I know you have a good mouth, I can''t say." Xi Jiu Er now felt that her mouth was so clumsy that she couldn''t refute. She could only forcefully repress the words that came out of her mouth as she glared at Meng Ru Yan. She wanted to ask what exactly Xi Mansion was, was it for that Imperial Jade Seal?


    Meng Ru Yan covered her mouth and laughed, looking extremely charming: "You''re not stupid, you''re just trapped in love. You only need to know that you are the only person in his heart. "


    "How do I know that I''m the only one in his heart? I can''t see him clearly. " The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth twitched in disbelief.


    "You think he doesn''t love you?" Meng Ru Yan cried out in alarm, then, he was startled, and then he laughed: "I can''t say anything more about this. You have to experience the feelings yourself, no matter what I say, you won''t believe me."


    "When I came here, I saw the Prime Minister Cao''s Lady Fragrance ¡­" Meng Ru Yan said in a bland voice, "Jiu Er, it''s been so long since we last met and you actually showed her such kindness. I still remember that your methods in the Xi Mansion can be described as lightning."


    "Everyone is no longer ignorant, and we are now implicated. I have to pay more attention!" Xi Jiu Er adjusted her breathing and played with the teacup in her hands. Her head flashed, then she suddenly laughed: "Tell me, if I let her fall in love with me, wouldn''t it be very interesting?"


    "Puuu ~ ~" Tea sprayed out, Meng Ruyan stared at Xi Jiu Er in shock, "Are you sure she is interested in you?"


    "I seem to be a little interested. Don''t forget that I know her very well!" Xi Jiu Er laughed leisurely, looking noble and elegant: "What do you like to eat, what kind of flowery robes do you wear, what poems you like, what songs do you like to hear ¡­ I don''t believe that Yan Niang can change her character for more than ten years. "


    "This... If she really falls in love with you, it''s going to be a miserable day. " Everyone knew that the Prime Minister Cao was a perverted person, but they would never allow his woman to go to an outsider''s land! If this Xi Wan Feng really fell in love with Xi Jiu Er, it would be easy to imagine her path.


    "Then it''s settled!" Xi Jiu Er recovered her smile. Since she had already made up her mind, then of course the relationship between Xi Jiu Er and Cao Nan would get better and better. After counting the time with her fingers, she concluded that the herb had found its effect. The herb was grown in a space, and its effects were much faster than normal.


    Inside the red tent, Prime Minister Cao looked at the beautiful girl that was born with such a lack of interest, causing Xi Wan Feng''s heart to be shocked.''s expression had been a bit reluctant the night before, but now, his interest seemed to have decreased. Like a snake, he crawled onto Prime Minister''s Estate''s fat body, trying his best to curry favor with her. "Prime minister, what''s wrong with you today, is Xiang''er not thoughtful?"


    "No, maybe I''m tired." Prime Minister Cao used to smell her body fragrance, but she always felt that it was nice. Today, she smelt a foul stench, causing her nose to move unhappily: "What did you wipe? Why do I smell a stench? "


    "Stink? The Prime Minister sure knows how to joke around. " Xi Wan Feng asked, and his smile became even more charming. Did the pig have a broken nose? Why was there a stench coming from her body? Yan Niang had given her Xiang Lu pills for nine days in a row, making her body naturally release a fragrance, how could it smell? In order to make the Prime Minister Cao respond to his scent, she would put a type of medicine into his body every night when they were having fun. It would let a man endure for a long time, and make him addicted to the fragrance.


    "Prime Minister ¡­" Xi Wan Feng''s Charm Art had already been ignited with pure gold, the Prime Minister Cao threw away the stench and the two of them planned to go play with Yun Yu, and then ¡ª Prime Minister Cao''s fat body moved a few times, and then smelled the stench that came from Xi Wan Feng''s place. He searched for the source and discovered that it was coming from her, then immediately retreated while pointing at her with disgust: "Are you sick?"


    "I don''t have any ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was currently looking at the Prime Minister Cao with a bashful expression, and said with a bewildered expression, "Prime minister, I ¡­"


    The Prime Minister Cao did not allow her to have someone else come in to help her put on her clothes. She replied without turning her head, "Go and find a doctor, this stench is too disgusting." With that, he disappeared, leaving behind the astonished Xi Wan Feng who had not recovered from his shock for a long time. He shouted, "mother of cinnamon, come in."


    mother of cinnamon flashed in and waited quietly by the side for orders.


    "Come and smell if I smell bad." Xi Wan Feng was extremely flustered and exasperated, she bellowed and took out a robe to cover her exquisite body.

 C293

    Doubtful, mother of cinnamon leaned over to take a whiff, there was no smell at all, just a faint fragrance, it made people''s hearts tremble uncontrollably.


    "Madame, this old servant did not smell anything unusual." The mother of cinnamon answered, thinking, could the Prime Minister have smelled something strange? He searched left and right, but didn''t find anything.


    "You may leave." Xi Wan Feng''s eyes flashed as she guessed some of the cause and effect. Thinking about it, if she went to find Yan Niang tomorrow, she would definitely know the reason. Feeling depressed, she dragged her long skirt over to the copper mirror to look at her brand-new body. She could not help but be comforted, Prime Minister Cao was just like a pig, she was accompanied by an animal all night and she was about to vomit.


    "To see where the Prime Minister has gone to?"


    "Yes."


    Returning to the bed, although the bed was warm, his body was still abnormally cold. Even his heart was cold, and he yearned to have a firm chest to lean on. She tightly hugged her delicate body like a newborn baby without the slightest sense of security. He stared at the flickering candle flame and thought back to his pitiful state ¡­ She could have been ordered by the empress. If it wasn''t for Xi Jiu Er, how could she have fallen to this day? Alone, sleepless, lonely, no one can understand the pain and suffering of lovesick.


    "Madame, the Prime Minister has gone to Miss Shui Er''s courtyard." After the maidservant reported back, she only heard a low voice say, "Scram." The young maid was so frightened that she immediately bowed and left.


    Dirty men, lowly women, none of them are good! Xi Wan Feng laid on the bed, tossing and turning. In his mind, he could actually see Song Tian''s appearance, elegant and refined, without showing any signs of arrogance or playboy''s aura. The study room seemed to be filled with a noble aura. It could be said that the room was extremely fragile, yet it also seemed to be filled with the vigor of a man. Love along the way... He was the only one who had gotten the best of him.


    That night, Xi Wan Feng dreamt of Song Tian ¡­ Qin Xiao and Ming Dong ¡­ Her voice was so sweet that it made her think about it for a long time. Early in the morning, Xi Wan Feng had a bashful smile on his face, the servant did not dare look at him, and did not say a word.


    When Yan Niang came to him, she was reading a book. Yan Niang was already in her fifties, and looked like a thirty-something year old woman. She wore civilian clothes and came in to greet him.


    With a stern face, he sat down and checked Xi Wan Feng''s pulse. Without exception, he also ordered her to lie on the bed and pluck up her skirt. After checking for a while, Yan Niang''s conclusion did not seem to be abnormal!


    "Has the problem occurred with the Prime Minister?" Xi Wan Feng guessed.


    "No, this problem can only arise from you." Yan Niang''s expression became serious, she knew that when the news arrived, the Prince Rong would already be in charge, and if Xi Wan Feng was crippled, then so be it, the Prime Minister Cao had already teamed up with him, and the use of the chess piece would no longer be of much use. Yan Niang dealt with the situation on the surface as she calculated in her heart. After pondering for a while, he asked: "What have you eaten recently? "Tell me in detail."


    Xi Wan Feng did not dare to be negligent, she had thought that Yan Niang had a way, but now it seemed that she was in a difficult situation. She anxiously ate up everything she had ¨C although she did not have much experience using poison, she could still protect herself with her skin and skin.


    "There''s no problem with your food. What went wrong?" Yan Niang became anxious, she walked around the house a few more times, but did not find anything, so her expression did not look good.


    "What happens if the body continues like this?" Xi Wan Feng asked worriedly, as he vaguely had a bad premonition.


    "If this continues, your body will turn into a stench that will make men run far away when they smell it. Women won''t be able to smell it." Yan Niang frowned: "You have offended a lot of people in this Prime Minister''s Estate, maybe they have harmed you in private ¡­ But the person who harmed you will definitely understand the restraint in our art of bewitching. "


    "Perception through bewitchment techniques?" Xi Wan Feng was anxious to achieve something, so he taught Yan Niang everything he knew about bewitchment techniques, but he didn''t say anything.


    "It is impossible for anything in the world to be devoid of flaws. Unfortunately, my attainment in this aspect is far inferior to my peers. I only know a few simple points. For a hundred years, I was the only one left with my own family. She and her husband both died, and I was the only one left. It is impossible for her to say that the person who drugged you might be a disciple of my own sect. My master carried out the teachings of his ancestors and taught us the art of seduction and the art of karma separately. Fortunately, we were on good terms when we were young, so I learned a lot from her... When you get older, you will have a different mindset. Gradually, they will become estranged from each other, and eventually, they will become strangers. " Yan Niang thought back to the nostalgic look on their faces. He thought about how the two of them were so young, and almost became enemies when they became strangers.


    "Then what should I do?" Xi Wan Feng panicked. Even if she learnt bewitching magic, it was useless, the man was already smeared to death by him. In that case, she didn''t even need to imagine her own life to know that it was better to die than to live. It would be better if she just slit her own throat with a knife.


    "Don''t worry, there will always be a way. I''ll go back and think of a way, and you must remember not to be in the path of others ¡­ "At least half a month''s time, I''ll be able to release all of this stench. I''ll definitely find out the cause of this stench, and I''ll also use medicine to cover up your stench. Rest assured." After Yan Niang finished speaking, she left in a hurry, leaving Xi Wan Feng behind, who did not know what to do.


    After thinking about it carefully, this woman from Prime Minister''s Estate had a deep grudge with her. She wished that she could kill all of them, and as for the other small fries, they did not dare to say anything, and did not dare to provoke her. There were also the elders of the Prime Minister''s Estate who did not bother with worldly affairs and stayed in their own courtyards, not fighting for favors or feeling jealous, being well-behaved and well-behaved.


    How could she dare to slack off even a little with Xi Jiu Er as her forerunner? After carefully calculating in her head, she realized that every single one of them was a suspect ¡­ Instantly, her head spun. Half a month ¡­ She hoped that Yan Niang would be able to find a way.


    "Eh? This is... Ah, Madame! " Fu Liu, who was cleaning the yard, carefully examined a tree. This tree looked really strange. Although it looked just like the other trees, there was still a fragrance coming from it. It smelled like ¡­ uh, it could be stored in a perfume bag. When she raised her head, she saw Xi Wan Feng staring at her coldly. She was so scared that her face turned white, and when she regained her senses, she had already walked far away.


    "mother of cinnamon, find a chance to pacify this Fu Liu. She is disgusted just by looking at me!" Xi Wan Feng said coldly.


    "Yes." Master said that mother of cinnamon would usually execute it, so there was no need to even think about it. Xi Wan Feng glanced at her. Prime Minister Cao was a pig, she was also a pig. Helplessly, Xi Wan Feng facepalmed... When they reached the long corridor, they were suddenly attracted by a figure not too far away. This figure carried a certain elegance and elegance, and although he was slightly less handsome compared to the young master beside him, his unique elegance caused everyone''s eyes to light up.

 C294

    After carefully smelling it was La Mei, Cao Nan asked his about it and said that it was planted by a certain Madame in the clan. At this point in time, the fragrance of the La Mei would waft over.


    ''s gaze paused at a certain place before turning around as if nothing had happened. He had already known from a long time ago that that direction was the place where Xi Wan Feng was standing.


    Xi Wan Feng felt the other party''s gaze and smile, and immediately smiled as he walked over to support mother of cinnamon. It was like the autumn winter''s redness, making people feel intoxicated just by looking at it. Although he was smiling, he could still see the worries between his brows.


    "Lady Fragrance." Xi Jiu Er nodded. A servant brought over from the manor stood beside him. When the servant saw the famous'' Nine Serenities ¡ª Lady Fragrance '', he was momentarily stunned. Seeing his master greet him, he quickly followed suit and bowed.


    "Young master Song, you don''t have to be so pitiful. Stand up." Xi Wan Feng laughed, looking closely at the young man in front of him, he was only dressed in a thicker robe, there was a Tian Yu Pendant hanging by his waist, it was crystal clear high quality, with one look, it was obvious that it was worth a lot. His skin was somewhat pale, almost devoid of any color. At first glance, he looked somewhat ill.


    "Is Young Master Song sick?" Xi Wan Feng couldn''t hide his concern. Xi Jiu Er saw that she was really worried about him, and did not act out the show. His hairs on his body stood up, and he quickly replied: Haha, I got two treasures, on my way back I coincidentally met Young Master Cao, and was invited by Young Master Cao to take a seat. "I think he should be dressed a bit thinner today."


    "Young master Song, you have to be careful. There''s no way you can be careless without a plan today." Feeling the stares from the crowd, Xi Wan Feng gave Cao Nan a concerned look as well. Finally, Cao Nan revealed a smile: That''s right, I saw Brother Song''s weak look and had to take care of myself. His gaze landed on the servant''s hand and he asked, "I wonder what treasure Brother Song obtained, let me experience it."


    "Hehe, open the box for Eldest Young Master and Lady Fragrance to see." Xi Jiu Er instructed with a gloomy face.


    As the attendant opened the box, a pitch-black inkstone and a book of wild history appeared in front of everyone''s eyes. Looking at the wild history, where all that was said was just a bunch of strange, messy stories, Cao Nan could only laugh without saying a word.


    On the other hand, Xi Wan Feng was shocked as she stared at the wild history. She had once read a book and accidentally burnt it half-way through it. Not everyone likes this wild history... There were many opinions on the matter, but they became more and more difficult to find.


    "Young Master Song, you like to see this?" Xi Wan Feng''s gaze became more fervent.


    "Hehe, I like it, could it be that Lady Fragrance likes it too?" Xi Jiu Er was pleasantly surprised, as if she had met a close friend. "I never thought that I would meet someone I like together with, it''s really great."


    Xi Wan Feng smiled gently, as he watched the servant close the box reluctantly.


    "Lady Fragrance wants to see it too? It''s true that this book is extremely hard to find, if Lady Fragrance likes it, you can take it and read it. Xi Jiu Er was gentle and refined, and gave the book to Xi Wan Feng. mother of cinnamon took it for her.


    "Thank you, Young Master Song, for your love." Xi Wan Feng bowed, and when he lifted his eyes, he was slightly startled. Aiya, is she trying to seduce him? He was immediately at a loss. He decided to bid farewell to the two of them. Her helpless expression returned to normal, in Xi Wan Feng''s eyes, she was even more beautiful than the other men. In the past, she was not exceptionally beautiful, but those men all ignored her talent and could only see the beautiful face of Xi Wan Rong, which made her feel disgusted.


    "You like this? Just tell me and I''ll find it for you. " Seeing that she could not hide her joy, Cao Nan was overjoyed, and said: "You can tell me whatever you like in the future, I''ll find someone to help me."


    Xi Wan Feng scoffed, before, when he saw her laying out a history, he couldn''t help but criticize and criticize her, and she told him? Was there any meaning to it? Cao Nan didn''t understand himself at all.


    Xi Wan Feng happily carried the book and returned to the courtyard. From afar, he saw the servant Fu Liu whispering to Shui Er''s servant, and his face changed as he scolded, "Eat everything that''s inside and outside, come back for me."


    "Yes." mother of cinnamon replied.


    The mother of cinnamon did not disturb her, but waited for her at the door. When she saw the mother of cinnamon staring at her expressionlessly, she was shocked, but she did not dare to approach him.


    "Come here, I have something to tell you." mother of cinnamon turned around and went to a secluded place.


    "What is mother of cinnamon... "Ahh!" mother of cinnamon moved her body to lift the willow branch, and immediately threw the person inside the well. With a plop, the hollow ''ah'' sound of the willow branch came out.


    "Come out!" mother of cinnamon bellowed, and with a swoosh, a lady dressed as a servant jumped in. The lady had an innocent and silly look, but she smiled at mother of cinnamon, as though she did not have any evil intentions.


    "Who are you?" mother of cinnamon relaxed her guard. Seeing the change in the opponent''s wrist, she immediately gave out a warning, and only after seeing it did she realize that she had taken out a hot bun. She contentedly ate a mouthful and answered mother of cinnamon''s question: "I''m here to take your life."


    "Hmph, what an arrogant tone." mother of cinnamon sneered, and immediately tensed up as she watched her every move, afraid that she would make a surprise attack. However ¡­ The speed at which she was eating the steamed buns was really fast. She ate up the fist-sized steamed buns in two bites!


    His wrist changed: Steamed Bun!


    Whew, whew, whew ¡­ It''s over!


    His wrist was changing: Steamed Bun!


    Whew, whew, whew ¡­ It''s over!


    His wrist continued to change: Steamed Bun!


    Whew, whew, whew ¡­ It''s over!


    mother of cinnamon could not take it anymore: "How many buns do you have?" It was hard to imagine that her petite body could actually put down four steamed buns without being able to see anything! Was she a juggler?


    Seeing that she was about to change her hand again, mother of cinnamon thought that it was Steamed Bun, but in the end, she swung her sword. The sword was formless and formless, its speed was extremely fast, mother of cinnamon was also an expert ¡­ Unfortunately, his brain was not as sharp as the other person''s, and he continued shooting hidden weapons, making it hard to guard against them. mother of cinnamon was silent as he continued to beat him to death.


    Xi Wan Feng watched the night with relish. When the servant girl mentioned that it was time to eat, she realised that Senior Servant Gui had went somewhere and asked the servant girl.


    At night, the mother of cinnamon was still nowhere to be seen. Xi Wan Feng immediately ordered some people to search, and a bad feeling vaguely came over.

 C295

    When looked at mother of cinnamon''s corpse, he felt a chill down his spine. Wouldn''t it be easy for someone to kill him if he were to do so?


    The servants were not afraid, they had seen such things so often, the more people the Prime Minister''s Estate had, the more deaths, the more worthless servants would die, who would pay attention to that? Besides, a lot of Charming Fragrance Garden died.


    "This matter cannot be revealed to the public. Anyone who dares to reveal the slightest bit of information will be met with a glare from them." The servants had always been afraid of her, so they immediately bowed. Xi Wan Feng called for the manager of the courtyard to deal with the corpse. Since mother of cinnamon did not tell anyone about this beforehand, they could just deal with the corpse secretly.


    The servants served Xi Wan Feng to sleep, upon seeing her gloomy and cold face, they all wished that they could run far away quickly, for fear that they could kill her later on.


    "Everyone, stand guard outside. No one is allowed to leave." mother of cinnamon was dead, without anyone to protect him, he felt insecure, feeling that the mastermind was staring at him from somewhere, ready to marry him at any time? Was it for her, or for Prince Rong? If it was directed at her, then the person behind the scenes must be someone from the family. If it was directed at Prince Rong, then it must be the Fourth Prince.


    His mind was restless as he tossed and turned ¡­ He couldn''t sleep, so he got up to look for Wild Shi, as if Song Tian''s calm and elegant face was right on the surface of the book, and was in a daze. He fell asleep as he was tired of watching ¡­


    In the morning, he woke up to eat breakfast before going to find Cao Nan.


    "Eldest Young Master?" Pushing open the door to the study, Xi Wan Feng had a gentle smile on his face. Cao Nan who was writing was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, and laughed: "Why is Lady Fragrance here today?"


    "I came over to return the book." Xi Wan Feng looked at him, and Cao Nan understood: "All of you should be waiting outside, stop blabbering and blabbering."


    When the servant left, Cao Nan could not wait to stand up and embrace Xi Wan Feng, and said excitedly: "Did you miss me?"


    Xi Wan Feng made a soft ''yea'' sound, the sound made people''s bones go soft, as he hugged Cao Nan, thinking that he really did miss him, and that he was just helping him. Seeing Cao Nan drunk in his warm and gentle country with pride and contempt, he buried himself in Cao Nan''s arms and cried, "The mother of cinnamon that served me by my side is dead ¡­ Right now, no one is sending a message to the Prince Rong for me ¡­ Cao Nan, you have to help me, someone in the family wants to harm me. "


    Cao Nan''s entire body released a sinister aura: Someone wants to harm you? "Rest assured, I will definitely find out so that you can take it out on me." Looking at the woman who had lowered her head in fear, she raised her chin and said, "Don''t be afraid, I will send people to watch your yard. Don''t worry, I will not let anything happen to you."


    "Thank you ¡­" In order to repay Cao Nan, he also gave him some sweets, and took the initiative to climb onto his neck and kiss him deeply. The beauty gave him a kiss in his arms. To Cao Nan, this was worth it even if he died at that moment. After the two of them were unable to separate at all, Cao Nan asked, "When can we ¡­"


    It goes without saying that Xi Wan Feng''s face was extremely beautiful as ripples of water flowed within her eyes. Xi Wan Feng looked at him, then said in a charming manner: "There''s no rush, there''s no hurry. When Prime Minister is not in the Residence, come over again ¡­ Remember to be careful. "


    "Don''t worry, I know." Cao Nan nodded her head, the two of them split up reluctantly, her face filled with worry. Yesterday, when she heard Prince Rong''s intentions, it seemed like she had already become a chess piece.


    After Xi Wan Feng returned, he began to prepare for the marriage of the Second Young Master Cao. He took this opportunity to properly clean up the people around him, and also took the opportunity to see who the mastermind was. Following that was the grand display of important figures in each courtyard, claiming that they did not have enough manpower. Cao Nan also called two people over, they were both servants, and looked like they knew some martial arts.


    In the afternoon, Prime Minister Cao was satisfied after looking at the list. "Not bad, tell Lady Fragrance that she has something to do, I can rest assured." Thinking back to that horrible stench that loved Xi Wan Feng so much, she couldn''t be compared to the past.


    "Lady Fragrance gave this to the Prime Minister." The maidservant handed over a slip of paper. The prime minister opened it and took a look. Someone had given me medicine to make me stink. I would like to request the prime minister to make the decision.


    How could Prime Minister Cao who was surrounded by women not know of women''s tricks? He casually threw away the letter and said without much concern, "I gave her such great authority and let her think of her own ways. If she doesn''t have that ability, she doesn''t care whether she lives or dies."


    The servant was startled, the Prime Minister did not seem to like the Lady Fragrance very much. He went back to tell Xi Wan Feng the exact words, and his head immediately received a cup of tea: "Get out of here, shut up about this matter."


    "Yes ¡­" The maidservant hurriedly retreated, covering her head with her hands.


    If I knew that he was cold-hearted, I would have known ¡­ Gritting her lips, Xi Wan Feng leaned against the chair, hoping that Yan Niang could quickly find a way. In this way, her days would also be better. Tomorrow, she would go to the Song Mansion. Joy welled up in her heart and she held the Wild Shi love in her hands, unwilling to let it go.


    Song Mansion ¡ª ¡ª The royal decree has been passed down, Song Yun Shan will be leaving for the north in the middle of the next month, at the same time he will be returning home with several sweet dates, bestowing the Madame Song with bad silk and jewelry, as well as promotion to Song Tian. This time, the order was not brought up to the north with a single word, and in the end, it gave Song Tian a official who was neither big nor small. This official position looked big, but had no practical use, and Xi Jiu Er still had not found out what she was doing!


    Her husband had left, as well as her son. She still had a worry in her stomach, which could be considered a form of gratification. Xi Jiu Er muttered to herself, what was the purpose of this official''s position? The elder said: "Oh, this must be the Young Master Song, the time this old servant saw you was five years ago. At that time, I was very different from you, after training for three years, I truly have a whole new level of respect for you."


    When the white-faced old man said this, Xi Jiu Er chuckled, "Eunuch is still as energetic as before." The eunuch who said this was very happy. He thought that he was the most proud of all, having a strong physique. It would definitely not be a problem for him to make it to the throne if the next generation overlord ascended to the throne.


    The first winter was approaching, and all the rich families had to start making ice. Firstly, ice could be used to wait until summer was over, and secondly, ice could be used to store things during the winter. Ice making was very complicated. The ice cellars were built when the mansion was being built! Madame Song had to check the storage of food in the next few days. Xi Jiu Er was coincidentally there, so a woman who was pregnant could not touch the cold.


    "mother, I''ll go take a look."


    It was extremely cold in the ice cellar. Xi Jiu Er entered wearing the fur clothes and checked everything perfectly according to the list, nodding her head in satisfaction towards the servants: "You''ve all done well, go back to the accounting office and get a silver coin for everyone."


    Everyone was overjoyed and saluted.


    Xi Jiu Er personally locked the cellar door, and when she walked halfway, she realized that the jade pendant on her waist had disappeared. Maybe she lost it on the way, or maybe she accidentally dropped it in the cellar, she was still there just a moment ago.

 C296

    There was a hole that was even bigger than a dried up well at the side of the cellar. As he walked in front of the hole, a wave of cold air blew over, and Xi Jiu Er immediately shouted after hearing the commotion: "Who is it?" Looking down, he saw an eight or nine year old child.


    "HELP ¡ª HELP ¡­" "Save me ¡­" When the child moved, Xi Jiu Er heaved a sigh of relief. But the servants of the manor? Hearing his weak voice, Xi Jiu Er immediately asked, "Are you alright?"


    "I, am so cold... "Hurry, it''s going to freeze to death ¡­" His voice was trembling like a fallen leaf, and when Xi Jiu Er heard that he did not have a response, she hurriedly asked, "Hey ¡ª"


    "I, want to sleep ¡­" "Yes!" The voice from inside became weaker. Xi Jiu Er secretly cursed, and said loudly: "Don''t sleep, I''m coming down to save you." There was a ladder placed on the wall of the pit, so Xi Jiu Er climbed down. After drinking the spring water, it was warm in the winter and cool in the summer, and she did not fear the cold or the scorching heat.


    Xi Jiu Er carefully walked down the ladder before landing on the ground. The bottom of the hole was not very big, so the child curled up together and trembled. From the way he was dressed, he guessed that the child was not a servant of the family, so he guessed that it must be some rich family''s little Young Master. Although there were a lot of suspicions in his heart, Xi Jiu Er still helped him stand up.


    This is bad, I''m anxious to save him. How am I supposed to climb up now? When he saw that the child was about to fall asleep, he immediately sent a slap over. "Stop sleeping, we''re going out immediately." It was unknown if it was because of the pain or because it gave him hope, but the child seemed to have woken up quite a bit.


    A very beautiful child. Xi Jiu Er bowed: "Climb up, I''ll carry you on my back." The child did not think too much and immediately climbed up.


    "Hold tight ¡­" Xi Jiu Er struggled to carry someone on her back and climbed up, secretly praying that the rope did not break! After expending a great deal of effort to finally climb out, Xi Jiu Er took a closer look at the child as he gasped for breath. He rubbed the child''s entire body, causing the child to finally warm up a little. "Who are you?"


    "I should be asking you this, this is the cellar of the Song Mansion, why are you here?" It was just a moment ago that she couldn''t see clearly in the dim light, but now she could see that this child''s material wasn''t something an ordinary young master could afford to wear. This was the most remote place in the manor. Ordinary people rarely came here, and the appearance of a child here was truly strange.


    The child was puzzled, "Song Mansion? That Song Mansion? "


    "Which other Song Mansion do you think it is?" Xi Jiu Er said in a bad mood, she supported him and asked: "Can you still walk?"


    "My legs are a bit numb, but they''re also a bit stiff." The child proudly pointed at the fake mountain and said, "Help me over there. I want to sit down and rest."


    A spoiled child. She obediently helped the child to go to the fake mountain. She was an adult, so she wouldn''t fuss over it like a child. Moreover, she would get someone to send the child back later, and the two of them would no longer have any business with each other. However, he didn''t care about it at all.


    "Big Brother Daniu, this is the place. Just now, the little Young Master had already left ¡­ No one else will come. "


    "Little Sister Jiao ¡­"


    The voices of the two gradually moved in, Xi Jiu Er and the child looked at each other. She was just about to walk out of the fake mountain, but when she stretched her head out, she retracted it, what did she see? When the man and woman started, they suddenly had the urge to roll their eyes. This kind of thing happened to servants everywhere. Even though the consequences of capturing one were tragic, there were still many people who were willing to try.


    "Cough ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er coughed, and the two of them froze as if they were struck by lightning, and quickly split up with their faces as white as snow: "Little, Little Young Master ¡­."


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes widened, "What are you still standing there for, get lost!"


    "Yes, yes, yes ¡­" The two ran away, as if they were going to be eaten if they were too slow.


    "Let''s go and drink some hot soup. I''ll arrange for someone to send you back." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. The teenager behind him pursed his lips and did not say a word, and when they reached the courtyard of the Madame Song, the Madame Song asked in shock: "The Eighteenth Prince?"


    What? The Eighteenth Prince? Xi Jiu Er was also shocked. The Eighteenth Prince? The youngest son of the current king, the son he doted on the most? Her mother had given birth to him and died in childbirth, so she had been raised under Zhao Fei''s name.


    "The Eighteenth Prince, why are you here?" Madame Song asked in shock.


    The child rubbed his nose, looked at Xi Jiu Er who was drinking tea, and unwillingly spoke: "I snuck out following Official Huang, planning to sneak out through the back door. I didn''t expect to get lost!"


    Everyone was astonished, this The Eighteenth Prince was extremely daring, he actually sneaked out of the palace! He had actually snuck into the Song Mansion without anyone noticing. If he had not gotten lost, he would have gone out to play! Xi Jiu Er''s face sank, it seemed that Song Mansion was not well guarded, and had to be strengthened.


    "You, you ¡­" Madame Song also realized, "How did you know the way?"


    "I was here three years ago. Based on my influence ¡­ "When I went to receive the edict, who would be worried about me?" The The Eighteenth Prince grinned. "I had thought that there were a lot of changes in the Song Mansion, but as it turns out, it''s just like before. That''s why I touched the backyard, and once I''m there, I don''t know where it is anymore."


    "Aiyo, aiyo ¡­" The old eunuch panted as he spoke, as if something huge had happened. "Master Song, come help us quickly. Something big has happened, something big has happened ¡­" Presumably, this old eunuch already knew that The Eighteenth Prince had snuck into their team and lost him.


    The old eunuch panted and lifted his skirt with a pale face. He was about to collapse inside when he saw The Eighteenth Prince wiping his nose with an awkward expression, then quickly changed his face and cried, "Aiyo, my ancestors, you really scared this old servant to death. If you had had had a chance, this old servant, who had ten thousand lives, wouldn''t have been enough ¡­ "Pah pah pah ¡­"


    "The Eighteenth Prince, are you alright ¡­" The eunuch checked once more and realized that he had patted his chest and collapsed onto a chair. He panted and mumbled, "I was scared to death, I was scared to death ¡­"


    Leaving the Xi Mansion to find a restaurant for food, was not considered eating an overlord''s meal. Those people did not even have the time to curry favor with him, why would they accept his silver? While eating, he discovered that he was missing a person. He looked around at a young eunuch and said that the eunuch was The Eighteenth Prince ¡­ Emma was so scared that he almost choked to death. He didn''t even need to eat, instead he quickly went to Song Mansion to get help. He also met Feng Qing Cheng on the way and begged him to help him look for her.


    "Go tell the fourth prince that the The Eighteenth Prince has found him."


    "You told Fourth Brother?" When the The Eighteenth Prince heard "Fourth Prince", his expression changed abruptly and was filled with fear. The old eunuch said, "I just met him on the road ¡­"


    "Who told you to tell him. He''ll definitely hit me again when we get back ¡­" The Eighteenth Prince shouted as he stood up. Not only Cao Cao Cao was there, Feng Qing Cheng walked over with a green face and a black robe. Other than Xi Jiu Er, everyone else was shocked by the cold Qi he was emitting.

 C297

    "Fourth brother ¡­" The Eighteenth Prince stood up obediently and carefully looked at Feng Qing Cheng, her chubby little face looked very pitiful, like an abandoned puppy that caused people to feel protective and sympathy for him. She quickly ran behind Xi Jiu Er, causing everyone to be startled.


    The The Eighteenth Prince had a very simple thought. When Xi Jiu Er saved him just now, that sense of security made him instantly want to ask for help when he was in danger. Xi Jiu Er stopped drinking and glanced at Feng Qing Cheng, her meaning clear: Can you retract your anger for a bit? You''ll be a father in the future.


    Feng Qing Cheng understood the meaning behind Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, and slowly calmed down, snorting coldly, as he found a place to sit. Xi Jiu Er turned to look at The Eighteenth Prince and frowned: "Men, bring The Eighteenth Prince down to change into a set of robes."


    "Thank God ¡­" The old man followed him. The Eighteenth Prince clicked his tongue in wonder. This Fourth Brother seemed to be really afraid of this Young Master Song, hehehe ¡­


    Feng Qing Cheng sat for a while, then said that he had something to do, and left. Xi Jiu Er stood up to send him off, the two walked side by side, the servants following behind. As the early winter was about to arrive, Feng Qing Cheng said unhappily: "Why are you wearing so little? How are you going to heal from your injuries? "


    "I''m in good health, don''t worry, have you finished dealing with the mother of cinnamon?" Xi Jiu Er looked ahead. She originally thought that she would follow Song Yun Shan up the mountain, so she asked.


    "Never." Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes flashed. If Wei Guogong went to sea today, she wouldn''t know about this news! Other than this news, there was another shocking piece of news. Prince Xian had suffered from an illness that left his legs crippled, and Shi Chen Wen had taken over his position. This news was something he had just received today.


    The two of them seemed to be filled with worry, as they walked to the door. Feng Qing Cheng used the time when he was tidying up his cape to kiss the beauty''s cold face, and said softly: "Since it''s so cold, you should wear more." Seeing that Xi Jiu Er had yet to react, her small mouth opened slightly, revealing an unspeakable cuteness, as her mood instantly became cheerful.


    In the Fourth Prince''s Estate, there was a man and a woman secretly doing shameful business. The man had a feminine charm, but the woman looked very ordinary.


    This man was Qing Yi, and the woman was the Fourth Prince''s most favored woman, Jiu Er. Qing Yi hugged Jiu Er very sweetly, and then spoke sweet words to him before making a move. However, Jiu Er did not avoid them. Instead, she went forward and met them with passion.


    Qing Yi sneered: "Why are you so lackadaisical? Could it be that the Fourth Prince is unable to do it? "


    The moment he said that, Jiu Er became angry and pouted: "He didn''t even touch me once, just saying he loves me is nonsense!"


    "He didn''t touch you once?" Qing Yi was astonished. "Is he a broken sleeve?"


    "I don''t know about Broken Sleeve ¡­" "Aiya, why are you blabbering so much? Hurry up, don''t ask anyone else." The impatient voice soon became a delicate one. It was a wise choice to choose a place where there were very few people around.


    Meng Ru Yan took a sip of tea to report back, and sneered. No matter how good of a lesson Xi Wan Feng taught, it would always be a lie. Look at that virtue! Even though it has a shape, it doesn''t have bones, but even more so, it doesn''t have souls!


    "All set?" She put down the teacup, not looking angry or happy, and sneered at the arrangement of the maidservants. The man and woman had finally ''done'' their work. The woman sat on the stone bench with a flushed face, while the man slipped away from the backyard.


    "Crack" business suddenly sounded, as though some broken branch had been cut, Jiu Er immediately shouted: "Who are you, come out." At this time, she didn''t bring a servant girl and sneaked out. Could it be that a maid came looking for her?


    There was no reply. There was only the sound of light footsteps, causing her to tremble in fear. Could it be that the person who came was not a servant girl? Who could it be? The voice was gone, did the person escape? No, she had to chase after it. If it got out, her entire life would be ruined.


    She immediately ran over, only to see a nobly dressed woman running with all her might. Unfortunately, she was dressed too extravagantly today, and the hairpin on her head was quite thick due to the arrival of winter. After running for a short distance, she stopped and panted heavily.


    Jiu Er recognized her as a guest of the Fourth Concubine. Her name seemed to be Miss Shen! Jiu Er was surprised to see her here, and when he saw that she could not run anymore, she immediately used her strength to stop her.


    "Miss Shen, where are you going?" Jiu Er''s indifferent voice made Miss Shen feel as if she had seen a nightmare. She accidentally sat down on the ground, "You, you ¡­"


    "I don''t eat people, what are you afraid of?" With one hand behind her back, Jiu Er held a large stone in her other hand. She walked over in an extremely friendly manner, "Miss Shen, let me pull you."


    "No, there''s no need ¡­" Miss Shen forced a smile, "I can get up myself."


    Jiu Er laughed: "Why are you running so fast, could it be that you''ve encountered something? "You''re so scared that your face is turning white ¡­"


    "I, I just saw a snake, too terrifying ¡­" Miss Shen thought for a while and then lied. Following that, a shadow appeared above his head and Jiu Er''s sinister face appeared.


    "Ahh!" Miss Shen''s body weakened as she laid down. Jiu Er looked left and right, only to see that no one was willing to drag Miss Shen to a dirty pool that was smelly and ice-cold in the ruins, and with a "putong", the Miss Shen gradually sank to the bottom.


    Jiu Er then cleaned up the place, tidied up her clothes and left. Miss Shen''s corpse was discovered two hours ago. Meng Ru Yan laughed: "How dare you." After that, he ordered some people to find Feng Qing Cheng, and ask him to come back.


    Jiu Er did not care from the start. In any case, Feng Qing Cheng had doted on her a lot, so even if she had killed someone, she would not suspect that she was not Feng Qing Cheng. The servant responded in a loud voice, "I wonder who killed him. This Miss Shen is Master Shen''s precious baby ¡­ There is only such a precious daughter in the entire Shen Mansion, and a princess in the palace has already slapped this Miss.


    "AHH!" Even if the Fourth Prince pampered her, wouldn''t he, when he met someone like Shen Master, chop her off and accompany his daughter''s life? This... Would the fourth prince protect him? He then heard the servant say, "Master Shen is highly valued by the emperor, sigh ¡­ The only thing we can do is to find the culprit who took Miss Shen''s life as compensation! "


    Looking at Jiu Er''s pale face, the servant girl ridiculed and started to talk about the Shen family''s great achievements, in short, no one could stop Shen Master from going crazy!

 C298

    Where did Jiu Er get her pride from before? Compared to their careers, women were like fart. Men who could turn around and be merciless were everywhere. Jiu Er''s entire body turned cold, she suddenly thought about how long it had been since the Fourth Prince had touched him, even though she had been tempted by him, he was still indifferent, like a willow leaf that was about to fall!


    Very quickly, Master Shen came to find her, and said that he had to give the fourth prince an explanation. When Jiu Er heard the maid say that the situation was like this, she immediately went soft and packed her luggage, leaving from the back door. In the end, someone guarded her well and caught her red-handed.


    "Master, this person is sneaking around, I''m afraid he is the murderer." The servant dragged Jiu Er and walked in front of an angry old man. The main courtyard was quite grand, and all of them were brought by Master Shen, causing the atmosphere to be exceptionally tense.


    Jiu Er thought to himself, the news travelled really fast, how did it only take a blink of an eye for Master to arrive, and all the servants to arrive? Before she could think too much about it, Master Shen grabbed her maid and slapped her fiercely, "You lowly servant, you killed my precious daughter, didn''t you?"


    Jiu Er was beaten until her vision blurred, she immediately shook her head: "I did not kill the person, I did not kill the person, I am the Fourth Prince''s most beloved woman, you cannot hit me."


    Master Shen sneered, his eyes full of contempt: "Fourth Prince''s most beloved woman? Pfft, how could it be a servant girl ¡­ Someone, drag her down and beat her! "


    "Mister Shen, calm down ¡­" Meng Ru Yan''s hands that were holding onto the servant girl, finally appeared in front of everyone''s eyes. Leng''er was noble, and the self-proclaimed ''Fourth Prince''s most beloved woman'' was like the difference between clouds and mud. The stealthily red and swollen face and the maid''s attire made the other maidservants in the mansion much stronger than her.


    "Calm down? My daughter is dead, and you''re letting me down? " Master Shen was furious, "This matter requires us to find the culprit, otherwise I will definitely not let your Fourth Prince''s Estate off!"


    "Someone come ¡ª" Meng Ru Yan called out a servant. "Tell me, who killed Miss Shen?"


    "Putong!" The servant girl knelt on the ground and trembled, not daring to say a single word. Her pair of eyes were faintly discernable as she looked in Jiu Er''s direction, causing Jiu Er''s soul to fly out of her body.


    "Speak!" Meng Ru Yan shouted loudly, the aura he was giving off was astonishing, causing the servant to tremble and shake the beans out of the bamboo tube, "Yes, it''s Miss Jiu Er, Servant... Servant saw her strangling Miss Shen ¡­ "


    Lies! Jiu Er screamed: "You''re lying, you weren''t there at all ¡­"


    The servant said anxiously: "Servant has seen everything clearly, it was Miss Jiu Er who strangled Miss Shen to death, then dragged him into the filth pool."


    "I didn''t strangle her. I stoned her to death." After Jiu Er said this, everyone looked at her strangely, but she did not notice it, staring straight at the servant, hoping that someone would reveal her lies. The servant girl''s mocking laughter made her feel as if she had jumped into a trap. It was only after some time did she remember what she had said ¡­


    What did she just say? No one answered her. Everyone was looking at her as if they were looking at a monster. They were probably laughing at her stupidity! Seeing that the situation wasn''t right, he immediately changed his words, not daring to face Master Shen, who was furious. He laughed dryly: "I-I blew her up, I didn''t kill her."


    Seeing her like this, how could he still doubt her words? Even an idiot would be able to tell that he had a guilty expression, "Well, you killed my daughter. Today, I want you to pay with your life for my daughter''s death! I will take the person away today, and even if the Fourth Prince himself comes to visit this old official, he will not let him go. "


    It was rare for Meng Ru Yan to even put on an act against such a foolish woman. He watched as the group of people left his side, and the servant girl behind him burst out laughing: "I''ve seen stupid people before, but I''ve never seen such a stupid person."


    "Haha ¡­" A sneer appeared on Meng Ru Yan''s lips, but he was not willing to talk about Jiu Er, who was still wrapped in grass, he held onto the servant and waved her away. The servants in the mansion looked at each other in dismay. This ¡­ this is the end?


    This was originally a farce. Lord Shen dotes on his precious daughter for more than ten years, but in the end, he discovered that she wasn''t his biological daughter. Why? Because he mistakenly consumed medicinal herbs when he was young, he was unable to give birth at all. It was only recently that he found out ¡­ He had such a great face, he had always thought that it was because of women, and after the Madame got pregnant, he believed even more that the problem with women did not come from him.


    Madame Shen came to find the Taoist and said that Master Shen had done too many evil deeds, and her children were shallow. Master Shen firmly believes that this green hat child truly cherishes and cherishes him. Unexpectedly, the child was not her. She almost suffocated to death. With her face, he naturally couldn''t let this secret be known. wanted to get rid of Jiu Er as a spy, while Master Shen wanted to get rid of her own daughter, so the two of them thought of this idea immediately.


    As the night fell, Xi Jiu Er stood by her bedside and looked at the different scenery. She didn''t think of anything else as she stood with her hands behind her back with a tinge of desolation in her eyes. Ge La, who was standing not far away, was infected by her and said softly, "Little Young Master, it''s time to rest."


    Today, Madame Song had brought Song Yun Shan to eat his most precious meal, and then, they strolled along some lively streets. As an eyesore, she brought Ge La along to stroll around casually. Although those peddlers ran around for their lives, they were all happy, and the smile on their faces was truly yearning.


    Whoosh whoosh whoosh ¡ª * In a split second, a cold and sharp object touched his skin, causing his neck to slightly tremble. Behind him, a sound that Xi Jiu Er would have never dreamed of resounded!


    Prince Xian!


    "Don''t make a sound." The Prince Xian''s voice carried a slight wheeze, and with extreme speed, he tore a piece of cloth from his body to tie Xi Jiu Er''s hands and feet, then walked to the side to take a breather while sitting down, and even got himself a cup of water to drink. Gurgle, gurgle ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er was silent. Didn''t the Prince Xian want to follow them to war? Why did he appear here? Unable to find an answer to his question, he only saw the Prince Xian ripping apart his robe to reveal an arrow wound on his waist. Under the candlelight, his skin was relatively white ¡ª white to the extreme ¡ª but his muscles clearly didn''t have any excess flesh!


    Cough, she shouldn''t open her eyes! Prince Xian had already stood up and walked over to her. She did not seem to be injured at all, and slashed with the dagger in her hand. A white light flashed past, and Xi Jiu Er''s eyes instantly widened. He thought that Prince Xian had no intention to kill him.


    In an instant, countless thoughts ran through his mind. Prince Xian, I''m not done with you! He opened his eyes and looked at Prince Xian, who was disguised and changed his appearance, blankly. He asked in a hoarse voice: "You, what are you trying to do?"


    "Take out the arrows. If you dare to have any ill intentions, I''ll immediately take your life." Prince Xian said in a stern voice. Following his words, the shining dagger landed on Xi Jiu Er''s leg. Her hands could still move, her feet were still tied up, the bed had sunk down and Prince Xian had already sat down with his back facing him.

 C299

    "Quick, attack." Prince Xian bellowed, his voice low, afraid that others would hear him.


    Xi Jiu Er took the dagger and started to cut the flesh, her smooth back suddenly became stiff and tight ¡­ It took a lot of effort to retrieve the arrowhead and wipe the blood off with the material.


    "Wipe it up." Prince Xian''s voice was very cold. Suddenly, he thought of the scene of their first meeting. It seemed like a very, very long time had passed. The bleeding stopped immediately.


    Prince Xian stood up and looked around, Xi Jiu Er pointed to the bag inside the bed and said, "The clothes are here." Sure enough, Prince Xian was looking for clothes. Dong dong dong dong. The sound of movement came from outside, Prince Xian stretched his head out and retreated after looking around the house for a place to hide.


    "If you want to live, you have to listen to me." Xi Jiu Er cried out. Her voice was somewhat urgent and said with sincerity, "Believe me, I won''t hurt you!" In the dark of the night, her eyes emitted a dazzling light. A familiar feeling suddenly arose within Prince Xian, this feeling was so fast that she couldn''t even catch it ¡­


    The officers and soldiers had already searched the room and pushed open the door with a bang. Candles were flickering in the room, and the furnishings were obvious. Only the sound of movement came from the bed. The girl''s head of black hair was scattered about, her smooth and round shoulders were extremely fair, her small face the size of a palm was panicking as she looked over, the flirtatious rose blooming on her chest was extremely alluring.


    There was a man lying on the ground, and his arms were extremely powerful as they intertwined with the fair woman''s arms, causing one to have endless fantasies. The man''s face was obscured by the girl''s black hair. He turned his head and asked, "Bastard, who let you in?"


    Judging from his tone, it was likely that a certain wealthy young master had spoken in a domineering and noble tone. It seemed that he had offended someone. The girl''s picturesque voice was extremely alluring as she let out an intimate sound. Burying himself in the man''s embrace, she felt extremely embarrassed.


    "Sorry for disturbing Gongzi Ya''s fun, I was smiling because I was just following orders. After checking up on her, I left." Saying that, the group began searching the house. Their eyes couldn''t help but glance at the woman''s skin. It was white, white, and as white as a piece of jade! Everyone watching gulped. This was a rare beauty in the mortal world.


    "Young master..." "I''m so scared ¡­" As if she was frightened by what she saw, the woman''s body trembled and her voice trembled.


    "Scram after you finish your search, or else I''ll take your lives!"


    "Yes, yes, yes, little ones will leave now." The officers and soldiers immediately retreated, and silence returned to the room. Xi Jiu Er revealed her round shoulders, making him look like a well-dressed butterfly. Prince Xian looked at him carefully. A man was actually so graceful! He himself was also beautiful and was often treated as a woman by others, so he never even thought about other things.


    Slowly getting up from Prince Xian''s body, he turned around to organize his long run. At that moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely ambiguous. Prince Xian quickly put on a robe and cupped his hands towards Xi Jiu Er: "Thank you for saving me, I will definitely repay you in the future."


    There was no sound from behind him, Xi Jiu Er turned and saw that the window was open, he instantly stared blankly down. Why would the Prince Xian appear here? What was his purpose in coming here?


    Prince Xian who had left under the night sky was completely unaware of the fact that he had just brushed shoulders with the person he wanted! Most of the time, what we''re looking for is right in front of us... Prince Xian was only missing two eyes!


    At night, Prince Xian rushed to a temple on the outskirts of the city. After knocking on the door three times, a monk walked out.


    "Did you receive it?" It was difficult to suppress the excitement in his voice. It sounded very hopeful. The Prince Xian''s extraordinarily handsome face, due to desire, was slightly painted with rouge. The monk behind him answered, "Yes." His body flashed to see his long-awaited beauty.


    The Ran Er of the past, the Jiu Er of today ¡­ He was kidnapped in Master Shen''s woodshed. When she woke up, there was a peerlessly cold beauty standing in front of her. A pair of venomous eyes shot over, causing her to tremble in fear. She did not dare to speak carelessly and could only use her eyes to carefully survey her surroundings. The words'' meditation ''were very eye-catching, and the incense in the incense burner was a rich sandalwood fragrance, so the decorations were very simple.


    This seemed to be a temple!


    "Jiu Er..." At the same time, someone opened the door, and a black figure flashed in. Hearing the voice, Jiu Er felt like he was in a nightmare, he looked at his face and his entire body fell into the ice cellar.


    How could it be Prince Xian? Why was he here?


    "Jiu Er? Jiu Er, what happened to you? " Prince Xian screamed a few times and realized that the beauty in front of him was staring at him in fear, as though he had seen a ghost. He was already excited to the point of not thinking about anything else, but seeing that he had no reaction, he asked: "Did you really lose your memories?"


    Jiu Er''s mind also became more flexible, with all the signs of the Prince Xian showing that he had recognized himself wrongly. It had to be that Xi Jiu Er! In that split-second, an idea popped out of his shell with a magic to guide her. Perhaps, her chance to live was right in front of him! Without the wealth and glory of the Fourth Prince, there was still another path!


    Hahaha ¡­ Xi Jiu Er, you died really well. Although there were two outstanding men who thought highly of you, it was a pity that you died a short life. Jiu Er stammered as he shook his head, "Who are you? I, I have some impression of you ¡­ It seems to have something to do with red ¡­ "


    "That''s right, it''s red ¡­" Prince Xian was extremely excited, as though he was a child. Jiu Er lowered his eyes in shock, and continued to act the part of the lover who lost memories, saying more mistakes. She had served Prince Xian for a while, and knew that this prince was not as dissolute as the rumors. Thinking of his ruthlessness, if he were to reveal himself and arouse his suspicions, she would definitely die.


    Shui Xian coldly looked at the excited Prince Xian and sneered: "My prince, no matter how I look at it, I don''t want Xi Jiu Er at all. You should know that she has always been intelligent, and Servant has never seen what she''s afraid of. It feels fake. "


    Everyone said that a woman''s intuition was sharp and accurate, what more Shui Xian who had interacted with Xi Jiu Er before?


    Prince Xian had long since heard about Feng Qing Cheng''s degree of affection for Jiu Er and had already dispelled his doubts.


    "They say dogs can''t stop themselves from eating feces!" Shui Xian did not like Xi Jiu Er being like this all along, she sneered.


    Prince Xian glanced at Shui Xian in dissatisfaction: "Jiu Er is not a dog, so you can''t speak carelessly." With that, he looked at Jiu Er joyfully and took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom. "This is a medicine for your wounds, eat it."


    Jiu Er had a trace of suspicion, but she helplessly swallowed the medicine. Her vision became hazy, and she could faintly hear the Prince Xian''s reply to Shui Xian, "This is Lovesick Attraction ¡­ This is what Xi Wan Feng had told me before ¡­ Jiu Er will fall in love with me for the rest of her life ¡­ "


    His vision turned black ¡­

    The date of Cao Mansion''s betrothal gift was today! Zhang Cui Lan marrying Cao Qing was like a buddha out of a sea of suffering to the young masters of the Cao family.


    However, they also heard that Zhang Cui Lan had an extremely generous betrothal gift that was even more than the one that married the princess. Some of them were unhappy, jealous, angry, and unresigned, but maybe it would even be their turn for the betrothal gift more. They really wished that Zhang Cui Lan would marry and be tortured into a human shape, that way they could feel a little better.


    The person who received Xi Wan Feng was Old Lady Zhang, Old Lady Zhang never expected that his own granddaughter would not have the marriage with the Song Family, but would instead have something even better. Although Cao Qing did not have a good reputation, he was not worried at all. In Old Lady Zhang''s view, if a man did not have a son from a rich family like Cao Qing, then there was no need to talk about a beloved prime minister.


    After the marriage, he would slowly train his heart! His old face was like a chrysanthemum as he gallantly led Xi Wan Feng to the great hall. As if this Song Mansion was her home, he also called out to the servants of the house: "What are you still standing there for, quickly pour the Lady Fragrance a cup of tea."


    Didn''t you see that she was falling? The servant rolled his eyes. This old demoness had come to order him around again. It was truly abominable.


    Xi Wan Feng laughed but did not speak, his eyes were also full of ridicule and without leaving a trace, he asked: "Why are there no Madame Song s?"


    "Madame and Little Young Master went out early in the morning, maybe they''ll send a letter back. Madame said that Miss Zhang is still a young miss of the Zhang family, so for this matter, I shall ask Lady Fragrance to discuss it with Old Lady Zhang. " After the servant said respectfully, she was fiercely glared at by the Old Lady Zhang and shouted: "Get the hell away from here, you have no business here."


    The servant girl forced herself to the side.


    Xi Wan Feng did not see anyone who he was not interested in seeing, when the matchmaker behind saw that she was not willing to talk much, she hurriedly went up to discuss the matter of the marriage with Old Lady Zhang. Old Lady Zhang was grinning from ear to ear, and said: "Fine, fine, just fine. She lowered her posture to the point where the disdain in the maids'' eyes deepened.


    In order to welcome Xi Wan Feng''s arrival, Xi Jiu Er had placed quite a few trees in the courtyard today, releasing a faint fragrance. Xi Wan Feng looked at the flowers everywhere and knew that the Madame Song was a person with good flowers.


    The matchmaker then praised Cao Qing fiercely after hearing her reply. Then, she thought about the two''s future and concluded: "They are truly a match made in heaven."


    Xi Wan Feng felt bored and stood up to take a walk. Ge La walked over from somewhere and made a ''please'' pose, "Lady Fragrance, let Servant take you to take a look for a breather."


    Xi Wan Feng recognized that she was Song Tian''s servant, seeing that Ge La seemed to want to say something, he was moved and laughed: "Great!" Following Ge La and enjoying the scenery all the way, they silently waited for Ge La to say something, and did not disappoint her. Ge La led her to Xi Jiu Er''s courtyard, allowing him to take a stand for a while.


    Xi Wan Feng looked at the courtyard carefully. There was nothing special about it, but to her, everything was different. Ge La brought out a box and gave it to Xi Wan Feng: "This is what little Young Master has asked Servant to prepare for Lady Fragrance. There are a few books inside that Lady Fragrance probably likes to read, and there is even a hairpin little Young Master would buy it just by looking at it.


    A hairpin? Xi Wan Feng raised his brows, the hairpin was a token of love between a man and a woman, what did Young Master Song giving it to him mean? His hand moved ahead of his head to take the box. When he realized that it was an irregular action, his face slightly blushed, but he did not notice that the maidservants were suspicious of him. "Thank you, Young Master Song, for your good intentions."


    On the horse carriage, although he did not see the real person today, the gift in his hand made Xi Wan Feng ecstatic. He happily opened the box and took a look, only to see a few books lying there. As she thought about it, the image of the elegant and graceful woman appeared in her mind. She then picked up the white jade hairpin.


    He was indeed beyond ordinary, but he was extremely diligent in his work, making people like him just by looking at him. From this, it could be seen that the person had been carefully selected as well ¡­ Returning to Prime Minister''s Estate, she happily put on the hairpin and looked around. It really suited her! This Song Tian is really a worm in my stomach, he even knows what I want to read? It could be said that she was his bosom friend.


    So Second Young Master Cao was betrothed... All of a sudden, it became the topic of discussion after the meal for Yan Du! Old Lady Zhang joyously pulled Zhang Cui Lan along as she talked about her own hardships, saying that she was the only one left without any children, a lonesome old man. Zhang Cui Lan was suspicious at first, but after that, she understood the meaning of Old Lady Zhang''s words.


    She wanted to follow him to the Cao Mansion to enjoy life there. He felt disgust in his heart. It wasn''t easy for him to get rid of this old demoness. How could he let her follow him there? , can I come pick you up after my granddaughter has settled you properly? She was also trying to shirk him.


    Unexpectedly, the Old Lady Zhang waved her hands in disapproval, and her wrinkled face returned to her usual mannerism, "No need, when you get married, I''ll go over with you. "When the time comes, I''ll take care of your courtyard and take care of those people obediently."


    Zhang Cui Lan still continued to laugh while enduring her anger: "Isn''t that a bit inappropriate, and after my granddaughter finishes settling things, that Lady Fragrance is the one who made the decisions ¡­"


    No matter how foolish he was, he knew that his granddaughter did not want him to go over. He snorted with ridicule: "It''s just a concubinage, you''re the daughter-in-law of the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister dotes on him, so it''s only natural that he loves me. I am your only family, shouldn''t you support me? "


    Zhang Cui Lan and Xi Jiu Er''s days were over, but she almost suffocated herself to death in her heart. This old Goblin woman had her own house and had to go to the Prime Minister''s Estate. They said that the Lady Fragrance was just the concubinage, but what was she? She said with a smile, "It is natural for my granddaughter to raise Grandmother, but it is just that my granddaughter is not clear about the form of Cao Mansion, and has not won over any hearts of hers either. I am afraid that Grandmother might be wronged in the past."


    Hearing that she was being considerate, and that her expression was slightly relaxed, and that there was no anger on her face, Old Lady Zhang was satisfied.


    Zhang Cui Lan''s gaze was sincere: "How can your granddaughter forget about Grandmother when she''s rich? How could Zhang Cui Lan be a heartless and ungrateful person when it wasn''t easy for him to bring up her granddaughter? Don''t worry Grandmother, your granddaughter will definitely take you over. "


    "When?" Old Lady Zhang sneered, "You can''t possibly let me stay in Song Mansion for a year or so, right?"


    "Half a month." Zhang Cui Lan''s smile did not change, but her heart was filled with poison. Since her marriage had been completed, what was the use of keeping the old demoness?

 C301

    Master Song and Madame Song continued to speak intimately with each other in the house. This departure had caused the couple''s relationship to become even closer than before. Now that their son had returned, they were pregnant again. Looking at her husband who was about to leave her, she felt as if she had a thousand things to say to him. In the end, she could only say: To come back alive is more important than anything.


    Madame Song was pregnant and rested early. When Song Yun Shan left the hospital, he saw a weak figure standing straight under a tree in the darkness, quietly looking at him. Song Yun Shan was startled, he never thought that this woman would actually be able to play the role of Song Tian so vividly, and did not let anyone see any inklings about it, as he was happy in his heart.


    "Master Song." "Master Song, the water in this bottle can protect your life when your life is at stake. I hope you can keep it carefully."


    Song Yun Shan knew that she had driven the heart-nourishing hall before and that there were countless precious herbs inside, hence she unceremoniously accepted and thanked him. When Xi Jiu Er thought back to the Wei Guogong, he realized that the old man''s life was not as bad as hers. Ever since she saw Prince Xian, she had asked around with her left hand. Didn''t they say that Prince Xian''s legs were crippled?


    Tonight, Xi Jiu Er had a premonition that Feng Qing Cheng had most likely returned, so she sent Ge La back to his room to rest while she read books. Within the time it took to make a cup of tea, a ''pa'' sound was heard. A trace of human figures appeared in the room. When she looked over, she saw Feng Qing Cheng standing a step away from him. ''The woman was sent to Master Shen Mansion and taken away in the middle of the night.''


    Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er understood a little after connecting with the Prince Xian. Feng Qing Cheng saw that she was not very curious and sat down to hug her, "I heard that Xi Wan Feng is in a good mood today. "What benefits did you give her?"


    Oh? So they planted spies in the Prime Minister''s Estate? He shook his head and replied casually, "It''s just a few books and an unremarkable hairpin. She has everything she wants right now, and these are just worldly possessions. We have to give them to her." What she lacked the most now were people who could understand the cold and the hot.


    "Clearly, Xi Wan Feng has taken the bait ¡­" He sniffed the beauty''s neck and muttered: "Jiu Er, after Madame Song finishes giving birth, why don''t you change back into your female attire and marry me?" Feeling her delicate body stiffen, Feng Qingcheng asked unhappily: What''s wrong? "You don''t want to?"


    "It''s not that I''m unwilling, it''s just that this plan is not as fast as it changes, let''s see how this plan works." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, she rubbed her body, and her heart flew somewhere as she blankly looked at the book in her hands, looking through the book as if he was looking at something else. Suddenly, her neck was attracted by something moist, and her voice filled with emotion, "Jiu Er!"


    The candle flame was extinguished by the wind from his palm, and the shadows on the bed intertwined ¡­ Not long later, an emotional voice could be heard.


    Three days later, when Xi Wan Feng and Cao Nan ''coincidentally'' met, Cao Nan''s expression changed slightly as he stared at the servant girl beside her: "Which one of you has the stench? Why aren''t you bathing? "


    After saying this, the two maidservants'' faces flushed red. They felt extremely embarrassed and both of them left. Cao Nan thought that the stench would disappear just like that, but unexpectedly it still existed. He had no choice but to look at Xi Wan Feng and clap his hands together in embarrassment.


    Xi Wan Feng''s face had already turned as stiff as a beautiful rock. Didn''t he say that it would take half a month? Cao Nan could smell the stench within a few months? When the attendant saw him previously, he was alarmed and furious.


    "Cao Nan... "Originally, I didn''t want to tell you some things, but now, it seems that I have no other choice ¡­" Xi Wan Feng retreated a few steps back and turned her face away in grief and helplessness. "Someone has drugged me in my residence, causing my body to stink so that I can lose the favor of the Prime Minister. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the marriage to find the culprit behind it, but I couldn''t do anything ¡­ The other side had hidden himself quite well, so they weren''t able to find any traces of him. " Tears had already rolled down her beautiful cheeks.


    Cao Nan''s heart was in pain, the beautiful woman''s tears were like sharp knives stabbing at him, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. He spoke in hurry: "Be at ease. I will find the murderer and give you the antidote."


    "Many thanks ¡­" The beautiful woman left in a hurry. Cao Nan was furious: Someone actually dared to hurt his woman at home, they will not be let off.


    "Crack, crack, crack ¡­" Xi Wan Feng could no longer bear it and smashed the things on the shelves in the room one by one, and he even pulled on the embroidered cloth on the table ¡­ After he finished venting his frustration, he sat down on the side in disappointment. He only hoped that Yan Niang would come earlier and find a way to deal with him. With that said, Cao Cao Cao arrived. When Yan Niang entered the door, she frowned: "Who made you angry?"


    "Get down." Xi Wan Feng endured shouting. After the servant had left, she said, "Cao Nan can smell the stench on my body now." Her sharp eyes stared straight at Yan Niang, hoping that she would bring him the good news.


    Yan Niang was shocked, it happened faster than she expected. She sat down and looked at Xi Wan Feng with an apologetic expression: "I''m sorry, I couldn''t find the antidote. I have already reported this matter to Prince Rong, Prince Rong is also thinking of a way ¡­ "Don''t be impatient." She really did not find the antidote, and his goal for coming here today was to pacify Xi Wan Feng.


    His hopes were gone in an instant. His heart was in such a bad state that he felt that something was wrong. The concern and concern in Yan Niang''s eyes that came earlier was real, why did he act so carefree today? What was the reason? A pawn from the Party has lost its use... His heart was instantly shocked. Could it be that he had already become an abandoned child? In the past few days, the Prime Minister Cao had not paid attention to him and Yan Niang no longer cared about him ¡­ What did it all mean?


    Isn''t this obvious? Xi Wan Feng had never known that his fate as a chess piece was so tragic. After taking a deep breath, his expression was no longer anxious, and he said indifferently: "A while ago, when I was preparing for Second Young Master Cao''s wedding, I discovered a mine in the Prime Minister Cao''s account book."


    Iron? Yan Niang looked over to see Xi Wan Feng looking at her calmly, with a smile that was not a smile. With that, she understood that she was negotiating terms with the Prince Rong. Heh ¡ª She had always known that Xi Wan Feng was no ordinary woman.


    "Alright, I will tell Prince Rong when I return ¡­ I will definitely do my best to help you with the antidote. "


    As Yan Niang walked, she stopped at the door for a moment. She kept feeling a strange fragrance that lingered in her nose, a fragrance that lingered around him for a long time. Yan Niang''s cooking skills were not bad, and her knowledge and fragrance were not bad either, which made him feel that it was strange to smell it.


    "What''s wrong?" Xi Wan Feng walked out and followed the direction of the gaze. The row of trees below the window were all the same, the only difference was that one of them was different. This tree ¡­ She seemed to see a willow tree come closer and sniff again from time to time ¡­


    "There''s something strange about this tree. There''s something different about this fragrance." Normally, I wouldn''t have been able to smell it. If it wasn''t for the fact that there was no wind, I wouldn''t have noticed this fragrance today. I''ll bring this tree back first. It might be the source of your body''s stench. " Yan Niang said.

 C302

    How can I please a woman?


    Xi Wan Feng nodded, "Alright." He ordered his men to dig up the tree, and when he saw that the maidservants had fled everywhere, the roots beneath the tree were covered with squirming, stinking insects. Xi Wan Feng took a step back in fear. Yan Niang''s face changed, as if he was pleasantly surprised, "As expected of this one. I didn''t expect it to be able to be found ¡­"


    Returning back to the house, Xi Wan Feng thought about the worm and felt a lingering fear. Yan Niang smiled, "You can rest assured now that you''ve found the root cause. When I go back and carefully study it, I will be able to concoct the antidote."


    "What is it?" Xi Wan Feng endured his disgust and asked.


    "It''s a cicada tree. When this kind of book is planted to a certain extent, it would attract a type of bug. Once this type of bug comes, it would be tightly entangled by its roots. The worm gradually sucks the nutrients from its roots to become big and fat, which gives it a strange fragrance. This fragrance will gradually come from the branches and leaves of the trees, and when the insect has sucked enough, the rich fragrance will turn into a fetid stench. " Yan Niang sighed, "This tree is practically extinct. Even my fellow sect members couldn''t find it. The person behind this must have put in a lot of effort for you. "


    Xi Wan Feng snorted, he remembered that Fu Liu had contacted Shui Er''s servant before, and said: "You go and investigate! Shui Er might be sent by the Fourth Prince."


    "Oh?" Yan Niang nodded. "Alright, I''ll tell Prince Rong when I get back."


    After the large rock fell to the ground, Xi Wan Feng''s mood became a lot better. She inwardly cursed how Yan Niang did not notice it earlier, if she had noticed it earlier, she would not have had to hide from him. Just as Yan Niang left, Prime Minister Cao received another message: Prime Minister Cao has brought back a woman!


    Xi Wan Feng did not even bat an eyelid, what else could this pig do other than go back to the residence to bring his woman back? He then heard the servant laugh out loud: "Miss Shui Er anxiously went to see him ¡­"


    "Let them cause a ruckus. A dog will bite a dog''s fur." She understood that the woman in the mansion was dead, and that pig wouldn''t care at all. If she dies, I''ll just bring one back.


    Shui Er brought her and hastily went to see the newbie. Her heart sputtered as she lay on the bed and said that she only cared for him, that she only loved him, that was all bullshit! How long has it been since someone brought back a new person? ''s underlings joined in the fun: "Miss, go teach her a lesson and let her know who is the most favored person in the family today."


    "Hmph, of course." Shui Er laughed proudly, she planned to show them her might. Every once in a while, Shui Er would arrive. Looking at how furious she was, even though she was favored, she was still living with a bunch of girls, and yet she was living alone in a small courtyard? Although the courtyard was small, the living quarters compared to her own were already excellent.


    As if she had been slapped in the face, Shui Er''s beautiful face had already been dyed red with anger. A lady in the house was looking at Shui Er quietly. Shui Er took a deep breath, what a, such a seductive woman.


    Liu Ye arched an eyebrow, apricot eyes cherry lips, fair skin... His appearance wasn''t very outstanding, but every move he made was filled with a slight aura of lust! To be angry at him! If one were to say that the Lady Fragrance in the manor was extremely charming, then the woman in front of his eyes had every movement that was as soft as her chest, round shoulders, straight and slender thighs ¡­ They seduce men all the time.


    It was still cold outside, but this woman was dressed like she was in summer. Wasn''t she cold? Shui Er had seen many different women in the Prime Minister''s Estate before, such as talented, beautiful, and young. Only a beautiful and charming woman like Xi Wan Feng was rarely seen, and now, there was another woman that was not afraid of the cold ¡­


    Swallow saliva, wow, the meat in front is so big... Shui Er could not help but feel inferior. Her grip was neither big nor small, but the woman in front of her was like a surging wave.


    "Miss Shui?" The woman opened her mouth and stood up. As she twisted and turned, Shui Er was once again dumbstruck. Only brothels had women like this. The servant girl beside her saw her master looking at her and completely forgot her purpose in coming here. She pulled on her sleeve and reminded him, "Miss ¡­"


    "Hmph, you''re a newcomer. I just came to take a look at you." "He doesn''t look that good either. He looks just like a scum from a brothel." Shui Er looked down on her on the surface, but he was extremely anxious in his heart. He really wished that he could have that pair of wavy hidden weapons.


    "Miss Shui Er is truly intelligent, I am indeed from a brothel. One day, the Prime Minister will stroll around the brothel, look at me, and bring me into the estate. " The woman laughed, and gave Shui Er flirtatious glances, causing Shui Er to shiver all over.


    "Humph!" Since you''ve entered the manor, you must behave properly in the future. Don''t mess with the manor''s rules. There are many Madame s in the house, if you come late, you must be courteous to your big sisters ¡­ " Shui Er really couldn''t stand her being nice to him. After he finished speaking, he slipped away like a wisp of smoke. Damn, why is this woman so disgusting?


    This woman was none other than Hua Lu!


    Xi Jiu Er handed Hua Lu over to Feng Qing Cheng, and Feng Qing Cheng passed Hua Lu over to the''s best brothel, the old procuress, to instruct him. Hua Lu wholeheartedly wanted to take revenge, but also wanted to be rich. The old procuress said that her talent was mediocre and that she was the one who had suffered the most in her teachings. Thus, she began to cherish her talent and gave herself to her, hoping that she would be able to learn as much as she could.


    The old procuress took her as her daughter, causing Hua Lu to lose her family. Although the old procuress was strict with him, she was also extremely nice to him. He also adopted the old procuress as his adopted mother. With Feng Qing Cheng''s help, she could easily meet up with the Prime Minister Cao. Putting aside the shame of being a woman, she used all of her powers to make the Prime Minister Cao feel comfortable, and would never forget.


    Since the old procuress had already accepted Hua Lu as her goddaughter, and thought that Hua Lu had a good future, she decided to let Hua Lu consume the Scarlet Woman Pellet that she had kept for many years. As long as it protected her dantian, she was not afraid of this freezing place. Hua Lu was deeply grateful to the old procuress and treated her sincerely.


    Shui Er spat out, ''you despicable slut'' as she scolded. When she turned her head and looked at the young girl''s body, she naturally did not know what to say, but looking at Hua Lu today, she began to feel dissatisfied. I wonder how that woman got so big, and how she twisted her waist ¡­ She tried to twist it, but it was all an act, not natural at all.


    "Pfft, who wants to learn that despicable thing?" As he spoke, he put on his clothes ¡­ However, he had a resentful expression on his face.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that Hua Lu had gone to the Prime Minister''s Estate, so she got the bawd to teach him everything. With a light smile, Hua Lu and Zhang Cui Lan went to add fuel to the fire. Ask Ge La: "You said that when a man pursues a woman, other than giving her something she likes, what else can he do?"


    "Sweet words." Ge La said as a matter of fact, "Women can''t stand sweet talk the most."


    Sweet words? Thinking back to last night, Feng Qing Cheng''s'' sweet talk ''made her cheeks turn hot.

 C303

    The Prince Xian gave Jiu Er the "Lovesick Attraction". Back then, Xi Wan Feng had used the "Lovesick Attraction" to put the Prince Xian under his pomegranate skirt, and the Prince Xian who lost his memories fell in love with her wholeheartedly. Then, because of the incident with the Orchid Palace, they bumped into each other, allowing the Prince Xian to unravel the "Lovesick Attraction" by accident.


    At the gates of the Yan Du, Prince Xian''s carriage and Xi Jiu Er''s carriage brushed past each other. He heard the laughter of a woman coming from the carriage and his entire body trembled.


    He had not expected that the person in front of him was a young man, much less the young man who had acted with him that night to withdraw from the army. And Xi Jiu Er was even more surprised that the Prince Xian came for that double. In a moment, the mixed feelings in his heart finally turned into bitterness.


    "Little Young Master, what''s wrong?" Seeing that the mood of the originally normal person had changed greatly, Ge La was at a loss as to what exactly had happened.


    "Nothing ¡­" The sound was ethereal and distant. The past, was all in the past. The happiness of the Prince Xian was also good for her. Leaning against the wall, his mind drifted off to somewhere else. Recently, he had been paying attention to his indecipherable thoughts and was in a daze for some reason.


    The Immortal Crane Tower was over a hundred years old. Legend has it that an old man rode a crane here and left, hence the name. The Immortal Crane Restaurant''s number one chef had already gone to the palace to become the imperial chef. The Immortal Crane Queen''s fame rose once again as she passed by the customers. The dishes were not something ordinary people could afford.


    The people of the Immortal Crane Tower drank too much and it was extremely noisy. Xi Jiu Er brought Ge La and walked across the building. A figure bumped heavily into Xi Jiu Er on the narrow staircase. Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt a chill, she looked down, a dagger was stabbed into her abdomen. Blood gradually flowed out.


    He did not see this scene as the people from the Immortal Crane Tower seemed to be coming to and fro like a bazaar. Ge La also did not notice Xi Jiu Er''s strangeness, he only felt that it was somewhat familiar that he had brushed past the man before him! Before he could think much about it, Xi Jiu Er grabbed his hand: "Go back."


    "Ahh!" Ge La realized that Xi Jiu Er had been hit by a dagger just now. Panicking, she brought her back as per Xi Jiu Er''s orders. Dong Ri''s robes were already stained with blood.


    "To the Fourth Prince''s Estate." Xi Jiu Er took out the Spring Water and gulped it down. If she went back to the Song Mansion now, she would probably arouse suspicion if she disguised herself as a man. Go to Fourth Prince''s Estate! Where are Yan Er and Feng Qing Cheng!


    "Who injured little Young Master ¡­" Ge La was frightened quite badly by the blood, his mouth trembling.


    Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I knew it was Feng Ru Jun just by smelling that fragrance." She did not smell the faint fragrance until she calmed her mind and found out who it was.


    Fourth Prince''s Estate, Meng Ru Yan hurried over and saw the pale lady on the bed and shouted: "Have you invited a doctor?"


    "Please, the doctor will be here in a moment."


    Meng Ru Yan quickly walked to the bed and looked at the dagger in his stomach, it seemed to want to kill him. Feng Qing Cheng told her that Xi Jiu Er was already pregnant. With a face full of worry, was the child hurt? On the other hand, Xi Jiu Er was relatively calm. Was Meng Ru Yan staring at his abdomen, worried about his children?


    "Don''t worry, it''s fine."


    She had been together with Xi Jiu Er for a few months, so she knew Xi Jiu Er''s personality. When she thought of Xi Jiu Er''s miraculous spring water again, he felt more at ease.


    After the doctor came, Meng Ru Yan pointed at the doctor and said: "This doctor is my trusted aide, I can trust him."


    The doctor did not say anything and started to treat Xi Jiu Er''s wound. The moment he pulled out the dagger, he blacked out, he did not know what had happened!


    When she woke up again, she could faintly hear the voices of people talking beside her ears. She carefully recognized the voices as Feng Qing Cheng''s and Meng Ru Yan''s. Whatever she said, she couldn''t hear clearly, and she could faintly hear Ge La''s voice mixed in.


    When she opened her eyes, she saw a beautiful Feng Qing Cheng sitting down on the bed. She held Feng Qing Cheng''s hands and asked with deep concern: "Jiu Er, is it still painful now? I must tear that Feng Ru Jun''s corpse into a thousand pieces and take revenge for you and your child. "


    Child? Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the child was different?


    Feng Qingchen saw through her thoughts and immediately comforted her gently: "Jiu Er, don''t worry. Our child is safe and sound in your stomach." Seeing that she cared so much for her child, she felt happy and satisfied in her heart.


    "Let go of the words to the Feng Family, just say that the appearance of Great Young Master Feng was completely created by the Prince Rong, and that Feng Ru Jun''s actions were also his doing. Let the Feng Family guess if it''s true or false!" She remembered Feng Ru Jun''s blade and ordered Feng Qing Cheng: "Bring Feng Ru Jun over to me.


    "You are already injured, rest obediently. Feng Ru Jun has me to take care of this myself, you are my wife and I am the father of this child. Feng Qing Cheng tucked Xi Jiu Er in. Her gaze was as gentle as water and her beautiful eyes were shining brightly. Her expression was so gentle that it seemed as if water would drip out of it.


    Xi Jiu Er still wanted to say something, but Feng Qing Cheng had already left with a great deal of anger. Big, big, whatever, since he said so, then do as he says!


    "Jiu Er, you don''t have to be so strong. Men are just people to rely on. Meng Ru Yan saw this and remembered it anxiously. Xi Jiu Er may seem smart, but she did not have much contact with love and did not understand much about love.


    Was it tiring to live? I don''t think so. Why did he need others to do what he could? Xi Jiu Er looked at Meng Ru Yan blankly, and the latter could only sigh.


    "He is the father of the child, your husband, and there are things he should do. Don''t think that what you can do others can''t do, that''s his responsibility. " Meng Ru Yan''s beautiful face carried a trace of worry, it would not be easy for her to move Xi Jiu Er.


    With no effort at all, Feng Qing Cheng found Feng Ru Jun. Her slender fingers drummed on the table as a sharp light flashed in her eyes, as if she was looking at a dead man.


    "Is the Fourth Prince here to avenge Song Tian? Is he dead? " Feng Ru Jun''s pale face was filled with excitement. He believed that she was already dead, and if he continued to stab her with such force, it would be strange if she did not die. Unless ¡­ unless someone was saving him!


    "I''m awake. What a pity, I''m still alive and well." Feng Qing Cheng''s face was ashen: If you can stab him with one blade, then I can stab you ten times but it won''t be enough. If you can endure it, then I will look for a doctor to save you.


    "Live well? How could he be alive? "I don''t believe you. You must have lied to me." Feng Ru Jun could not believe it, and did not hear Feng Qing Cheng''s second sentence!


    This morning, the guard next to him took out ten daggers. The daggers exuded an abnormally cold and sinister aura. He was playing with her fair skin, as though she would shoot at him in the next second. Feng Ru Jun had not seen it clearly yet, but his body was in pain.

 C304

    "AHH!" Intense pain spread throughout his body, and a cold energy was emitted from his wounds. His body also gradually turned cold. Before the wave of pain passed, a second dagger shot out.


    was in so much pain that his teeth were trembling. The Fourth Prince that he had seen? It was just like an Asura from hell. Its entire body was emitting a terrifying killing intent, and it was so fierce that it could suffocate people.


    "Do you know who she is? My wife and my unborn child''s mother. Not only did you hurt her, you almost killed your child. Don''t you like daggers? I''ll let you have a taste today. "


    "No, no." Feng Ru Jun started to chant like a rattle drum, Wu Qing''s eyes were filled with terror, ten blades... This was trying to take her life! She would never think of a child or a wife.


    "Puchi!" The third knife shot through her thigh, causing her to cry out in pain. Her back was already drenched in cold sweat as beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down her forehead.


    "Don''t, don''t let me be wrong, spare me!" Feng Ru Jun''s consciousness gradually blurred. The scene in front of him flipped over as he muttered to himself, "Don''t hurt me, don''t hurt me ¡­"


    "Crash!" A bucket of water from a well in winter washed over her, causing her who had originally been unconscious to immediately wake up. Right now, she was cold and in pain, her pale face even whiter than before. However, he heard the sound of his teeth chattering. "Fourth Prince, I, I was wrong. In the future, I won''t dare ¡­"


    "If you want me to spare you, it depends on whether or not you have that life." The words of such beauty were like the words of the coming of death in this damp and dark cell.


    How could he possibly survive? Would she not become a hedgehog after ten cuts? Gritting his teeth, he threw caution to the wind and said, "Since that''s the case, why don''t you just kill me in one slash!"


    "Kill you? It''s too easy on you! "


    Despair rolled in, Feng Ru Jun did not think much of hitting the wall, but unfortunately she was one step too slow, and was unable to move because of the guard''s tight hold on her.


    "Ah, I curse you, you two will die a horrible death... "I won''t forgive you even if I become a ghost ¡­"


    The ten sabers fell, and the man was already dead.


    Feng Qingchen straightened his robes, stood up and indifferently left. His footsteps paused, remembered Xi Jiu Er''s orders, and called for a guard to bring Feng Rui to Madame.


    "They say that this prince unintentionally discovered her corpse when he was passing by the suburbs, and so they kindly sent it back."


    "Yes!"


    When Madame Feng saw his daughter''s death, she was stunned for a moment before reacting. Her face was filled with pain and disbelief. What was going on? She was fine when she left, how did she die when she returned? She then looked at his daughter''s dressing, which made her understand what was going on.


    "Jun''er ¡­" "My daughter ¡­" Without a son and a daughter, Madame Feng felt like the sky was falling. "Who? Who killed my daughter? "


    After crying for a long time, his tears had dried and his heart was broken. Wiping away his tears, he wondered what he should do next. Her sharp eyes saw that there seemed to be something in Feng Ru Jun''s bag, when she pulled it out, she saw that it was a piece of paper. Opening it to look, it said: Your big brother was the one responsible for the Prince Rong King''s actions, and he was the one who ordered you to be offended.


    The Madame Feng stared at the slip of paper in her hands in shock. The piece of paper was like a big mouth that was about to bite her. Had her daughter gone to check on the news? Could it be that she was silenced when she received the news?


    Gradually, the grieving Madame Feng regained her calm and she lowered her eyes to stare at the slip of paper in her hands ¡­


    In Prince Rong''s residence, the Madame Feng came over with a smile. She carried a box of food and went to her study, just in time to see the Prince Rong.


    "What are you doing here?" Prince Rong said impatiently: "Is it because of that little girl who did not do anything well even though she had done things well? I already told you not to cause trouble for me, but you refused to listen! "


    "Just like Jun''er ¡­" Madame Feng''s eyes reddened. Her daughter thought that everything was good, but in the eyes of other people, it was just too terrible!


    "Do you know what she did? She actually stabbed Song Tian, and she was sent to Fourth Prince''s Estate! " Prince Rong stood up and stared at him fiercely: "Where is she now, hurry up and ask her to go to Fourth Prince''s Estate to apologize to Song Tian."


    "Don''t be angry Prince Rong, I''ve brought your favorite Su Long Cake. How about you try it first?"


    From Prince Rong''s point of view, she was just trying to curry favor with him. Although he was furious at Meow, he still couldn''t help but eat a piece of the pastries with a bright and rich fragrance. A look of delight flashed in Madame Feng''s eyes, and only after Prince Rong had finished eating did he slowly say: "Ru Feng had already died from several cuts on his body."


    Prince Rong was stunned, Feng Ru Jun died? It was good that she died. This way, he wouldn''t need to go through so much trouble. The little slut who had so many things to accomplish was spoiling his life time and time again, causing him so much trouble.


    "How many cuts did you get? "Who did this?" Prince Rong was full of doubts, "Was it Song Tian who took revenge?"


    "Who knows? The culprit could be the Fourth Prince, could be Song Tian, or could be ¡­ Prince Rong you! " Madame Feng swept her gaze across Prince Rong. With a gaze as sharp as a blade that carried an indescribable chill, Prince Rong shouted angrily, "Nonsense, even if I don''t like her, I shouldn''t have killed her! "She''s your daughter. Even if I don''t look at your face, I still have to look at mufei''s."


    When she mentioned soft consort, it was as if millions of ants were gnawing at her heart. On the surface, the soft consort treated her as a sister and secretly mocked her, relying on her status and power. Her eyes were filled with jealousy ¡­ Back then, the one who entered the palace should have been her!


    "What about my son? But you made it all by yourself? " Madame Feng''s eyes were sharp like torches, he stared straight at Prince Rong, not sparing any of his expression.


    "What did I do?" Hearing this, the Prince Rong was surprised, then under the Madame Feng''s undetectable gaze, she dodged it a little, although it was just a bit, but it was still there.


    "It''s really you, it''s really you!" "I actually treat the murderer as my benefactor ¡­" Madame Feng laughed and cried at the same time.


    Prince Rong explained: "I don''t know what you''re talking about, what enemy, I saved him ¡­ "Ugh ¡­" "Ugh ¡­" A sharp pain came from his stomach as Prince Rong stared at the girl in shock and said with certainty: "You venomous woman, you have poisoned me! "Someone, come!"


    "Poison woman? I don''t have half of your mother''s poison! " Madame Feng stopped crying and looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, "Do you know what it means for my son to be able to endure all these years? A skinny adult, bullied by a servant ¡­ "But I didn''t know that the murderer was at large ¡­" Recalling that his son had been neither a human nor a ghost all these years, his heart was filled with grief. Her son used to be so nice... Talented and handsome.


    "It''s all because of you ¡­ It''s all because of you! " Madame Feng screamed.


    "Someone, come here!" Prince Rong did not want to waste time talking to her, she felt an unbearable pain in her stomach, even after shouting for a few times, she still could not hear that someone had come.


    "Your Highness!" With a bang, the door was smashed open, and a subordinate glanced at the sneering Madame Feng immediately and said, "Quickly find First Lady!"

 C305

    soft consort tossed and turned until she couldn''t sleep at night. Suddenly, she felt a burst of angina pectoris, which startled her so much that she immediately opened her eyes.


    "Empress of the soft consort, Prince Rong has been poisoned ¡­ The situation is not looking good! " The palace maid also looked nervously at the pale woman on the bed and said, "Servant has probably already sent the imperial physician over. Don''t worry, esteemed wangfei is the hospital''s best imperial physician, Imperial Physician Hu!"


    "You did well!" When soft consort saw that the palace maid had calmed down, he stood up and immediately helped her change his clothes. Without waiting for anyone to ask, he said smartly: "Madame Feng is bringing Prince Rong''s favorite pastries, they are poisonous!"


    soft consort stared at the servant in shock: "You said Madame Feng?" How could it be her? How could anyone possibly be her? Since he couldn''t think of a reason, he could only explain that it must have been the Fourth Prince who had instigated them to sow discord.


    "I''m feeling very flustered. I''m really not at ease. Send someone to inform the emperor that I''m going out of the palace to take a look." soft consort dressed in the attire of a noble woman before hurriedly leading the servant girl out of the palace. When the carriage left the palace gates, it was stopped by the emperor''s personal eunuch, ''Fugui'', who said that it was to go with them.


    With the wealthy soft consort s calming them down, the group of people anxiously went to the Prince Rong Palace. The result was a shocking piece of bad news: the Prince Rong had suddenly died a moment ago.


    soft consort, the woman who had infiltrated the harem for so many years, fainted immediately as the servant carried her down to rest. The wealthy elder''s face did not recover even after a long while, and the young elder beside him called out to him a few times before slapping him on the back, "What are you doing, quickly go and report this to the emperor."


    Prince Rong''s death was like a thunderclap that exploded on the spot, shocking the entire Yan Du. The rich calmed down and quickly went to Prince Rong''s bedroom. A terrible stench assaulted their nostrils. The entire room was filled with that nauseating aura, the rich and noble were not affected in the slightest. When he walked over to take a look, he saw that Prince Rong was bleeding profusely from all seven orifices ¡­ The blood was the source of the stench.


    "We have to take good care of the murderer. We can''t let her ¡­" The meaning of being wealthy was very clear. The murderer''s conspiracy against the imperial bloodline involved a family of nine. The Emperor wanted to personally interrogate him. There couldn''t be the slightest bit of neglect.


    "My son ¡ª ¡ª" soft consort came over with the support of a palace maid. His well-maintained face looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant. He staggered to the bed and witnessed the death of his beloved son. Recalling that his son was still alive a few days ago, he suddenly screamed like a female beast who had lost its young.


    "The soft consort''s Empress ¡­" Wealth came over and said in a low voice, "The Prince Rong is this ¡­"


    "Where''s that bitch? Where is she? " soft consort suddenly glared back fiercely at Fugui. His eyes no longer had the calmness from before as his face had a crazed and bloodthirsty look, "Go and find that slut for me. I want to ask her why she killed my son."


    "Yes ¡­" Wealth knew that the soft consort had already lost her sanity. soft consort bit her lips tightly as tears rolled down her face like a flood ¡­ That bitch!


    Madame Feng was brought in with disheveled hair and tied up. Although her hair was in a mess and her hairpin was in a mess, her robes no longer had any dignity, making her look extremely miserable. However, her eyes were extremely calm, calmly staring at soft consort, neither sad nor happy.


    "Slut!" In his heart, soft consort felt both grief and anger. She strode forward and ruthlessly slapped him across the face, the strength so great that even she herself nearly fell to the ground. "Why did you kill my son?


    "Why? Your son killed my son and my daughter, and I lost two lives for one. Wrong... It''s the entire Feng Residence! " Madame Feng was pleased, it was better for her son to live than to die, it was better to let him die than to let him live. What was there for her to linger around in this world?


    "Nonsense." When soft consort heard this, he didn''t even want to slap her anymore. She had already confirmed that this foolish woman had been deceived, and was trying to trick him as she said resentfully: "You stupid bitch, why did my son kill your daughter? If it wasn''t for my son, then your son would have already seen the King of Hell. If it was really what my son said, then why didn''t you just kill him? "


    Madame Feng snorted: "Who knows what your son is thinking?"


    Seeing how ignorant and foolish the Madame Feng was, how could she be such a sister? His son was dead ¡­ Abruptly, the soft consort pulled out the hairpin in an attempt to take revenge. Only when she was stopped by the rich and powerful did the four work together to barely stop her.


    "Let me go, I''ll kill this wolf-hearted bastard today ¡­"


    Madame Feng sneered, resentment suddenly rose, her calm gaze could no longer remain calm, and her face was filled with unwillingness and jealousy: "Wolf heart and dog lungs? I think you''re the heartless one! The emperor still doesn''t know, right? Back then the one playing the zither in the pavilion was me, it was me! I wrote the poems that the Emperor admired. I wrote them! Because you are the direct descendant of me, I was born from a side family, yet you always set your eyes on me! I could have married the Emperor. It was you, a slut, who used underhanded means to climb into the dragon bed! Then, she talked about it in front of the old Madame, making me feel like walking on ice in her house, so I had no choice but to marry Feng. "


    That man only had three points of skin, yet he was ruining his own life. She wanted to live together with him forever, but who would have thought that all the men in the world were heartless and unjust ¡­ The bitter taste in her mouth made the patient woman explode at last. Losing his son and daughter was like losing his entire hope and life.


    The servants were shocked, which mansion did not have any dirty work? Back then, it was only because the emperor looked at the soft consort that he was able to accept her. Today, hearing what the Madame Feng said ¡­ They bowed their heads as if they hadn''t heard a thing.


    The soft consort took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping across the entire room, stopping at Fugui''s body for a few seconds. Wealth was someone of the emperor. She couldn''t keep her mouth shut. Now that her son was dead, she had no one to rely on anymore ¡­ Closing his eyes, soft consort felt like he had lost everything. He stared at Madame Feng in exhaustion, his eyes slowly turning calm.


    "Is that so? You resent me in your heart? " Taking one step at a time towards the Madame Feng, the rich thought that the soft consort was indeed the soft consort, and calmed down so quickly. Suddenly-- Light flashed in his head as he shouted, "Not good. "


    But it was too late, the soft consort took advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention to him, and removed the hairpin. The seemingly gentle and gentle woman directly stuck the hairpin into Madame Feng''s throat and pierced through.


    Gulu...


    As the hairpin was pulled out, blood gushed out from the bloody hole one after another ¡­ Madame Feng''s eyes were wide open as he covered his wound while his entire body spasmed.

 C306

    It was snowing heavily without any warning, and along with the cold wind, it made people shiver. The people of Yan Du started to get busy. This snow had arrived earlier than usual, they should start preparing the winter goods. In just a short few hours, the entire Yan Du was covered in silver, and the busy people had already forgotten about the news of Prince Rong''s sudden death a few days ago.


    Prince Rong''s sudden death caused a great deal of shock. Politics, parties, kings ¡­ A series of actions had completely broken the silence. There was a total of ten princes and five princesses, and currently, there was only the Fourth Prince, the Prince Rong, the Seventh Prince, and the last The Eighteenth Prince. The other princes either died or were crippled, leaving the old Wind Nation Kingdom''s leader with only four sons and three princesses!


    The Prince Rong was just around the corner, waiting for his father to complete the ceremony, who knew that Cheng Ya would suddenly appear. One of the sons of the Wind Nation''s Emperor was crippled, and the other was young. A healthy body makes you smart when you''re small ¡­ Afterwards, he silently acknowledged Feng Qing Cheng''s identity. He had always coldly watched from the sidelines towards Feng Qing Cheng, so it couldn''t be said to be too good or not bad.


    Gradually, his attitude towards the Prince Rong was also not as fond as before, how could those elite officials not see through it? He was only lobbying the Wind Nation''s Head to recall Feng Qing Cheng, he should be able to be his son after so many years.


    How could he not agree to it? He pretended to scold Feng Qing Cheng a few times and said that it wasn''t good for him to be a father. After sighing and feeling that his heart was a little blocked, he was flattered by the officials and thus agreed to Feng Qing Cheng''s plan to return to Wind Nation.


    At first, Feng Qing Cheng thought that without his parents'' education, they wouldn''t even have much knowledge to wander around. They probably didn''t know anything about politics. Who would have thought that this seemingly mild Fourth Prince was not as handsome and elegant as he seemed?


    Although his face was more beautiful than a woman''s, he was never a smiling person. The Eighteenth Prince, who was usually favoured, would do whatever he had to do to get rid of him, unlike the others who tried to curry favor with him. The Eighteenth Prince suffered a few hidden losses at his hands and was beaten up by him so he knew that this person was not like the others who would curry favor with him.


    Every time he saw Feng Qing Cheng, he would act as if he was a mouse seeing a cat.


    This person''s ability and incompetence could be seen. Feng Qing Cheng was out of everyone''s expectations, adding the fact that Feng Qing Cheng had planted many hidden spies in the imperial court all these years ago, it would not be surprising for him to have formed a faction in the imperial court at the right time.


    Now ¡ª ¡ª Prince Rong, who was on par with Feng Qing Cheng, had died. This killer was even his soft consort''s sister.


    After losing the Prince Rong''s main force, the officials who had been following them for many years became flustered and anxious. Xi Jiu Er rested for a few days, then she no longer needed to rest in bed, so she held Ge La''s hand and walked around the courtyard.


    The moment he pushed open the door, the piercing cold wind blew over, Ge La adjusted her clothes, covering her tightly. However, Xi Jiu Er no longer had any interest in going out, seeing that she had extended her hand, he could only support her move her body: "Ge La, I''m actually not afraid of the cold, really."


    If one truly interacted with Xi Jiu Er, then they would realize that she was actually very easy to talk to, with almost no airs of being a master, and treated the person beside her as family. Ge La grinned and said: "Little Young Master, you are currently injured. Fourth Prince has told me to take good care of you, I can''t be careless.


    "You''re my servant, and you''re his servant." How could Xi Jiu Er not hear the ambiguity in Ge La''s words? Although he was dressed like a man, his pair of sparkling, microwave eyes were extremely beautiful, revealing a rare flirtatiousness.


    The Fourth Prince''s Estate did not have any particularly interesting places, and from Feng Qing Cheng''s words, he might not even want to stay there. The two of them walked for a distance before they saw a white figure walking over from within a white snowy scene. White robes, white boots ¡­ Even the crest was white! It was impossible to tell if he was a snowman or a living human with flesh and blood. Only his pair of shiny black eyes were burning with passion.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart trembled, she pursed her lips but did not say anything.


    Ge La smacked her forehead and said: "Servant forgot to take the thing. I''ll go back to take it now. Fourth Prince, my family''s little Young Master is injured. Help me take care of it. With that, he ran off with a smile.


    "This girl." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    There were not many servants in the house, so some places were not cleaned. Xi Jiu Er did not know where she should go. Feng Qing Cheng smiled at the side, her eyes shining, her white jade face turning even whiter.


    "A few years ago, I placed spies in the Feng family. The servant girl from Madame Feng is one of my people." Feng Qing Cheng walked slowly with her hands behind his back. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not have the slightest bit of surprise, she thought to herself that she had indeed guessed it. She continued, "Originally, I only wanted to bury the culprit, but who would have thought that Madame Feng would actually have a heart of death, and would not rest until Prince Rong is dead."


    Xi Jiu Er did not care about all these, she only cared about what kind of situation he was in right now! When Prince Rong died, all the lances would be pointed at him ¡ª Seeing that his eyes were cold and without the slightest bit of worry, she smiled in relief.


    At the moment, the Wind Nation only had three princes, and hearing that the Seventh Prince was suffering from some kind of illness, the The Eighteenth Prince looked to be young, so wasn''t he the only choice? Could it be that after killing him, the Wind Nation would be handed over to the Seventh Prince or the The Eighteenth Prince? The Seventh Prince was mentally ill, even if the The Eighteenth Prince King raised him with his life on the line, he might not even be able to teach him how to become a sovereign.


    "Today, Lady Fragrance will send someone over to inquire about your condition ¡­ This Xi Wan Feng is very considerate to you ¡­ Your plan is just around the corner. "


    "Xi Wan Feng also has someone with you?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows. She heard that Xi Wan Feng had sent people out a while ago and bought a new batch. She was sensitive and suspicious, but listening to Feng Qing Cheng''s tone, these eyes were not arranged for one or two days.


    "Since I plan to come back, then of course I have to cast a net." Feng Qing Cheng lifted the branch above Xi Jiu Er''s head. Her hands were quick enough that when she touched it, the snow on top of the branch did not fall. Xi Jiu Er did not notice this tiny movement!


    "Where''s the soft consort? How does the Emperor plan to deal with this matter? " These few days, I have never heard of any news about soft consort. I only heard that she used a hairpin to kill Madame Feng that day, her methods were extremely cruel. After entering the palace, there was no sound of her joy and grief ¡­ The only thing that made sense was that she was about to explode in silence. The soft consort had been living in the palace for many years, her thoughts were extremely meticulous, Feng Ru Jun had made a mistake on this matter, she was not willing to be able to guess who did it.


    It was unavoidable that he would be involved in this, so counting the time when Feng Ru Jun had lost his identity, it could be said that Feng Ru Jun''s death this time was not something he could simply do. soft consort didn''t have any clear evidence on how she wanted to deal with him, and his identity wasn''t something that she could simply take care of. It was too bright to be too dark.


    "Rest assured, soft consort won''t be skipping for long ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng waved his hand, bringing a gentle breeze with him. Xi Jiu Er moved the top of her head, causing Feng Qingcheng to remove the dried up leaves. Unknowingly, they had already arrived at a stretch of ruins.

 C307

    The palace, wrapped in silver clothing, was lit with candles at night. In the pitch-black night, it seemed especially warm. soft consort hugged her arms tightly as she looked at the sky in a daze. In the quiet and empty bedroom, only the flickering candle light could be seen.


    Creak * An exceptionally ear-piercing sound of a door opening was heard in the silence. A woman dressed like an old man came in, with a pair of turbid, sharp eyes that did not resemble that of an ordinary woman''s. She walked steadily to the candle flame and adjusted the wick before walking over to soft consort and calling out to him, "soft consort''s Empress ¡ª"


    soft consort trembled as she turned her head to look at her stiff face. "Aunty ¡ª" She was Prince Rong''s wet nurse and had been away from the palace for five or six years. Once a year passed, soft consort would let her enter the palace to reminisce with the two of them. The Prince Rong treated her extremely well, just like her great-grandson.


    "The soft consort''s Empress ¡­" She stepped forward and held her ice-cold hands, and tears welled up in her eyes. Now, she no longer had any tears, and when she came, her tears had already dried. This old servant didn''t come here today to speak to you of those comforting words, I just wanted to tell the soft consort Empress a secret. "


    "What secret?" soft consort''s heart trembled. At this time, the wet nurse ran over to her and told her a secret, this was illogical, maybe this secret was related to her? Or was it because of the Prince Rong?


    An even louder sound came from outside. Xi Jiu Er was woken up by the sound, she had been sleeping soundly to begin with. Suddenly, a delicate fragrance wafted into her nose, carrying with it the unique scent of a man. When she opened her eyes, she saw that peerless face under the moonlight. It was unknown whether or not she was tired as she slept extremely heavily. She couldn''t bear to wake him up. Since she had nothing better to do, he would carefully look at his appearance. Suddenly, under that peerlessly beautiful face, there was something protruding near her ear. If it was in the past, she definitely wouldn''t have known!


    After wearing the human skin mask for a long time, dried up marks would appear on the skin and would not stick to the skin. Then, the skin would rise up and become bulging. At first glance, it looked like it had turned green after a beating. Xi Jiu Er''s heart thumped wildly as she carefully stretched out her hand, afraid that she would wake up.


    Weird, normally a very vigilant person, why is he sleeping so heavily today? He touched that ice-cold skin and laughed at himself, tearing it open bit by bit ¡­ There was nothing unusual about the man''s breathing.


    The human skin mask was lifted, and the uneven face, which was covered in scorched flesh, looked like an extremely terrifying demon under the moonlight. Xi Jiu Er had already mentally prepared herself, now that she saw it, she was shocked to the point that she immediately chilled. There was not a single piece of good meat on his face ¡­ It wasn''t hard to imagine how strong the fire was that it would burn a person to this state.


    One was the descent of an immortal, while the other was ugly ¡­ Two Extremes... After Xi Jiu Er calmed down, he did not feel any fear. She was not a person who cared too much about the skin of others. She also had the spring water and the medicinal herbs in her spatial space, which could help him recover her appearance. Burn... It wasn''t just burning her face. Those plum blossoms marks on his body are the marks of burns? I reckon so...


    There was a sudden clap of thunder in the sky. Xi Jiu Er trembled in fear, and now there was thunder in the sky? This was really strange. She turned her head and was shocked. This was not because she was frightened by Lei, but because a terrifying face had come over and those two eyes were staring at him tenderly ¡­ could not accept it in that moment.


    Probably, Feng Qing Cheng did not know that she had already taken off his human skin mask.


    "What''s wrong?" The familiar eyes gradually calmed down.


    "Nothing, the thunder just now scared me." Xi Jiu Er laughed, and hid the human skin mask under his pillow without leaving any traces. His eyes were clear, and his voice asked again: "But why are you here today, sleeping so deeply." That day, Meng Ru Yan had said that the young Feng Qing Cheng had experienced too many things ¡­ Looking at his completely changed face, pity grew in his heart.


    "He is probably tired ¡­" If she slept with Xi Jiu Er, she would unconsciously relax and fall asleep. Trust in Xi Jiu Er existed from the bottom of his heart. Not only would he feel extremely relaxed and happy when he was with her. Under the moonlight, a layer of halo seemed to envelop the skin that could be broken by the wind ¡­


    "Jiu Er..." Her moving voice, hugging Xi Jiu Er''s lips, began to peck at it. Her voice was as moving as a clear spring spring, filled with thick and dense sweet feelings that could not be dispelled. His body was burning with passion, "Jiu Er, wait till I wait for the end of the world, you will be the Queen, I will make sure you can be above tens of thousands of people!"


    Empress? She had never thought of being an empress. She only cared about living a normal life, living a happy and free life!


    Feng Qing Cheng was already very familiar with her body as she came down a few times. In just a few moves, she caught on fire.


    "AHH!"


    With a "honglong" sound, Xi Jiu Er''s startled body involuntarily shrank. At a certain place, she unconsciously tightened her grip and the man behind him let out a joyful sound from his throat!


    soft consort was struck dumb by what his wet nurse said and found it hard to accept it. More than ten years ago, she had provoked the wrath of the Holy Will and was sent to the cold palace. At that time, there were still a few months left before the birth of the child, and his arrival would become a turning point in her life. Having a son would bring wealth and glory, and having a daughter ¡­


    A few months later, as she wished, she gave birth to a ''son'' who was very similar to her. However, this son of hers was actually the son of her brother, the unfavoured concubinage. She had never doubted him for more than ten years. It was no wonder that he was similar to her, saying that her nephew was like a uncle.


    "Then, where is my daughter?"


    The wet nurse said indifferently, "I gave it to the concubinage and died the next day." She had grown up in the Prince Rong, so she didn''t care about the life and death of soft consort''s own daughter.


    Dead? soft consort looked down, she was sure that the concubinage had killed her. Her daughter was born without a single glance at it ¡­ Even today, when she spoke of her daughter, her heart was still moved. This was the bloodline!


    Prince Rong was brought up by her alone. Back then, she almost threw his life away, so he treated this child with double love. Only now did he know that everything was wrong! No matter what, the child he raised was still very biological. Watching him grow from his cradle bit by bit, learning from his teeth and hobbling around until he didn''t even need her, how could she just forget about him after more than ten years?


    Mother''s goal today was for her to not be sad, because the Feng Family had lost and the Feng Family had lost. The Feng Family had enjoyed limitless glory because of the soft consort, but because of the Madame Feng, they had faced the wrath of a nine familial family member.

 C308

    "Today, this old servant wants the Empress to think of a way to save the Feng Family. The Feng Family cannot do without you, and you cannot do without the Feng Family. The road in the future is still long, we must all support each other!" The wet nurse said in a low voice, "Empress, you have lost the Prince Rong and the eldest young master his child. You have seen how the young master treated Prince Rong for so many years, you have done everything you can! And Master Feng ¡­ "A family of a hundred or so people ¡­"


    Closing her eyes in grief, soft consort had cried all that she needed to cry over the past few days. She even cried all that she needed to cry in pain, she still needed to continue walking the road that she needed to walk as long as she did not die.


    "If you want the Feng Family to get out of this predicament, then you have to find evidence to push the blame onto Feng Qing Cheng!" soft consort had an idea in an instant. When Feng Qing Cheng was able to resolve the problem that the Seventh Prince was suffering from, and The Eighteenth Prince was still young, she would quickly have a child in her womb ¡­ Anything is possible... He could start over and have his own child.


    "soft consort thinks the same as Master. I''m afraid that the Emperor is already suspicious of the Fourth Prince. We only need to add fuel to the fire, and it will naturally be a success." The nurse smiled.


    "I''m afraid Feng Qing Cheng has already planned for this, it will not be easy to kill him, the best course of action would be to seal his throat with blood." When the soft consort was in the palace, she had clearly seen the situation outside. Feng Qing Cheng reckoned that he had already made his preparations before returning to the palace. This person had managed to escape death many times from her hands, and she silently cursed herself for not killing him back then.


    "Seeing Xue Fengchuan is about to kill the person he trusts the most." The nanny nodded with a calm expression, "The Fourth Prince''s Estate''s secret stronghold has been pulled out. I can only start from the side... Master said that the Fourth Prince is also human and would have a weakness. " However, the Fourth Prince treated people coldly. He had planted spies in the streets to report that the couple''s relationship wasn''t as good as the rumors had said. The person standing next to him didn''t seem to get any more passionate about him.


    "Do you think he was the one who kidnapped that woman called Jiu Er?" soft consort seemed to be asking herself and also asking her nurse. Her expression did not look like much, but her pretty eyebrows were knitted, and her tear-stained face was filled with deep thought.


    "This Servant doesn''t know." Aunt did not know about this, she was only found by Master Feng after the incident there.


    "Your Majesty, please investigate this matter yourself ¡­" soft consort took a deep breath. She had already expected the outcome of the investigation.


    The sky gradually turned white, and the snow outside the window seemed to be silvery white! It was not because of how severely Feng Qing Cheng''s actions had hurt the child in his stomach. It was the second time after a round that he seemed to have teased her, and started a fire on her body bit by bit ¡­ He insisted on torturing her before he gave up.


    Xi Jiu Er was completely exhausted, her soft body sinking into the soft brocade bed sheets. Her pure white body that did not reveal a single blemish on it was blooming and flourishing like a strawberry. The roses on her chest exuded an alluring beauty. Why she did not know, but every time she touched the flower, her eyes grew very cold.


    He caressed his stomach and started to say that Xi Jiu Er had his child ¡­ Honestly speaking, he didn''t believe her, but he also promised to convince himself that there was no need for Xi Jiu Er to lie to her. Now, his lower abdomen wasn''t like the others, only slightly bulging and not showing any signs of growth ¡­ But it seems to be growing now, starting from tonight? Was it an illusion?


    "Ugh ¡­" What is that? A human skin mask? Feng Qing Cheng instinctively caressed his cheeks and his expression immediately changed as he forgot to breathe. Years of wearing a human skin mask caused the scorched skin to slowly become smooth under the corrosion of the medicinal liquid. A human skin mask could be easily seen without him.


    Mask, when did it fall? Did she see it?


    Why did it fall? Impossible!


    Did she see it? He must have seen it!


    Feng Qing Cheng''s mind was in a mess, his ugly appearance had never been seen by anyone, especially Xi Jiu Er, if she saw him, she would definitely run away like those people avoiding her, like a demon. He could kill those people, but Xi Jiu Er could not ¡­ Pain, fear, panic... Feng Qing Cheng closed his eyes and forced himself to turn cold.


    Even after witnessing his true appearance, she didn''t show any change and continued to stay below him as happily as before. That coquettish appearance made him realize how blissful and wonderful it was to have the girl he liked rolling around below him. No one had ever seen her like this! Once she thought about how she would be seen by other men, she couldn''t help but want to kill someone.


    "Jiu Er... Jiu Er... Do you find me ugly? " Worry transformed into a loving smile, and his gaze turned into water as it dripped down. He touched that moving face and said, "I know you definitely aren''t the kind of girl who will judge a person by their appearance."


    "Jiu Er... I want to die on you. " With a sigh, Feng Qing Cheng climbed up the mountain again. Outside, when Ge La heard the commotion, he was startled. She looked up and hoped that the Fourth Prince would take it easy.


    On the day of the winter festival, the king of Wind Nation ordered for a total of twenty-three people to kill Madame Feng''s husband, his concubinage and her children. After that, there was no news of him at all. It was as if the dust had settled. Before killing the Emperor, the Emperor handed him a letter which detailed the matters between the Prince Rong and Great Young Master Feng. The reason why Young Master Feng became a living corpse was indeed because of what he said ¡­


    "Your Majesty ¡­" Thinking back to how his son was acting in such a weird way, soft consort had thought that he was blaming himself at first. Now that he thought about it, maybe he didn''t think that way. He paused for a moment before lowering his eyes and saying softly, "Perhaps ¡­"


    "We know what you want to say. This is our secret guard. He followed the late emperor and then followed us. He has always been loyal to the zodiac!" After a moment of silence, the King of Wind Nation opened his mouth. A pair of eyes that were faintly discernible floated over, and he wanted to say something but hesitated.


    "Your Majesty, chenqie doesn''t mean that ¡­" soft consort immediately explained: "It is normal for chenqie to be suspicious. I have only been suspicious for two to three years, even if I found out about it, my personality would change greatly in just one or two days. I''m afraid someone is instigating it."


    "Her daughter Feng Ru Jun died from ten cuts on her body ¡­" The man thought for a while and continued, "She had stabbed Young Master Song at the Immortal Crane Restaurant and was sent to him due to her being near him. It''s a good thing that he was treated in time, if not Song Yun Shan would definitely have turned the tables on us. "


    The soft consort was obedient to Feng Qing Cheng and Song Tian ¡­ With a tremble of his heart, soft consort took a deep breath and said slowly, "Your majesty, don''t you think it''s strange? Would Feng Ru Jun''s several cuts be the Song Family''s revenge? According to what my little sister said, that Song Tian and his Sister-in-law have teamed up to cause Feng Ru Jun to lose face ¡­ "


    soft consort''s words were interrupted by a light lift of the big hand: "We know what you want to say, and we also have a general idea of what is going on. The death of the loser was the saddest outcome, because there was nothing left for the loser. Just like the soft consort. Didn''t you win, and have enjoyed ten years of prosperity ¡­ Who would pay attention to the loser? Could it be that I feel indignant for the person who lost? What about you? Do you feel wronged? "The victor is the king and the loser is the thief. It''s just that her ability is inferior to yours ¡­"


    The rich and noble grandfather had indeed told him! soft consort''s heart trembled, a cold air spread from the bottom of his feet to his entire body.

 C309

    "Your Majesty, he''s your son ¡­" The words of the man in front of him were like a blow to the head. He had clearly seen the man in front of him. They say that the zodiac is a heartless and unrighteous person, but haven''t they seen through her after more than ten years of floating? As the Prince Rong grew older, she became accustomed to living a comfortable life. Furthermore, he had gained favor with him.


    "Of course I know. Which one of the men sitting in this position isn''t full of blood and blood? "I wish he would kill me too!" His calm and dignified voice was like a clap of thunder to soft consort. He stared blankly at the ruler of a nation.


    "Your Majesty ¡­" The tip of his nose was filled with the familiar fragrance of the dragon''s saliva. He had been embraced by this fragrance countless times before! A gust of wind blew in front of him, accompanied by a strong fragrance that dispersed in all directions. The man had already left with his hands behind his back. It was hard to see his expression clearly. The black robe made his back seem so emotionless.


    In the eyes of the emperor, this matter had already been settled! No, how could she let this pass? Feng Qing Cheng... He couldn''t let him live. He took a deep breath and sat down, gradually retreating in grief as he called for the palace maid to inquire about the recent situation in Fourth Prince''s Estate.


    "Fourth Prince and Young Master Song are inseparable from each other, sleeping together even at night." The palace maid knelt down and reported. This was the most secretive spy in soft consort, he had put in a lot of effort to not be discovered until now. Originally, he wanted to leave it for Prince Rong to use ¡­ Thinking back to the pain in Prince Rong''s heart.


    The relationship between the fourth prince and the fourth imperial concubine wasn''t as deep as rumoured to be. The two of them went to do their own things in the residence. Initially, they had thought that Meng Ru Yan had a cold personality, but this Feng Qing Cheng was not a person who didn''t talk much. Now this is like a man? Could it be that he had Long Yang''s blessing?


    His heart began to heat up. A prince likes men ¡­ "Hahaha, this is probably the biggest scandal in the world." "Clean up, I want to go to the Feng Residence, I want to see big brother."


    Having stayed in Fourth Prince''s Estate for half a month, the matter regarding Prince Rong seemed to have settled down, but Xi Jiu Er knew that it wasn''t over yet. How could soft consort let the pain of losing his son go? Touching his stomach, Xi Jiu Er''s face wrinkled into a bun. It was as if Feng Qing Cheng had become addicted to her body during this half a month, and following her to sleep every night was something that was not right. When she had something to do, she would enter the Spaces to soak in the spring water. Her body gradually became special, and her wounds healed very quickly.


    In order not to attract attention, the performance of the act is also acting. Ge La who was serving closely with her had previously been a little surprised, but she was a princess of a small country. There were countless methods in the country, and since she had seen many strange things, she was no longer curious.


    "Qiu Qiu... This child of mine is either not very old for a few months or he just grew up slowly. This, why is this so? But the child is different? " Qiu Qiu was different from before, his entire body was releasing immortal qi, although his body was still like a cat''s, stepping on a cat''s steps was extremely noble and elegant.


    Qiu Qiu''s cat claw gently rested on his protruding abdomen, as he closed her emerald-green cat eyes. Wu Chi opened them and said: "Rest assured Master, your baby is fine, and also very healthy. Perhaps the reason you are so big is because the master and the father of the child have combined forces, causing the child to grow up so quickly. "


    Seeing Xi Jiu Er was puzzled, Qiu Qiu sat down and swung her white tail ¡­


    "Space is the place where all living things gather their spirit energy. This child is filled with spirit energy and naturally needs spirit energy! Although the master had space, the spiritual energy in his stomach was yin. All living things were said to be balanced between yin and yang. When men and women got along, it would be a balance between yin and yang. The man''s body was made of blood essence and spiritual energy ¡­ The baby has the spirit energy of the owner and the blood of the man to help him grow faster. " Qiu Qiu explained.


    Xi Jiu Er''s face slightly flushed. Fortunately, she was wearing a human skin mask and didn''t notice anything strange. She understood everything Qiu Qiu said, and even if she had her doubts, she still had to ask if she was shy.


    "Qiu Qiu, if you reconcile Yin and Yang everyday ¡­ "How long will it take for this child to be born?"


    Qiu Qiu looked at his stomach for a while and said, "About four to five months..."


    Four or five months? Well, either you''re twice as slow as normal, or you''re twice as fast... Counting the time, four to five months? When the time came, he would not be able to cover it even if he wanted to. With his plan in mind, he smiled and asked Qiu Qiu: "Where have you been cultivating recently?"


    "This Wind Nation is not bad, there''s a lot of spiritual energy here!" Qiu Qiu wagged his tail, and the man and the cat began to chat. On this side, Ge La was so worried ¡­ She felt that her master was sick and that there was something in his stomach! The bulge in her stomach a while ago didn''t match with her delicate body ¡­ It''s gotten bigger in just half a month...


    During lunch time, Ge La was having a meal as she glanced at Xi Jiu Er and said: "Little Young Master, I heard that the Fourth Prince was once the disciple of the genius doctor Sun Kong Ming, am I right?"


    "Yes, why, are you sick? "Where''s the discomfort?" Xi Jiu Er had never treated Ge La as her servant, she had served him with all her heart and did her best, without any other thoughts. She naturally liked this kind of maid ¡­


    "It''s not Servant, it''s you ¡­" Ge La''s gaze involuntarily drifted towards Xi Jiu Er''s abdomen. How could she not be moved when Xi Jiu Er was concerned about her? "The more Xi Jiu Er treated her, the more she did her duty. Why don''t you let the Fourth Prince see if there''s a stone on your stomach? "


    "Stones?" Xi Jiu Er was startled: "Why do you have a stone in your stomach?"


    "She will. Servant saw a man with a big stomach back then, but when he died, he discovered that his stomach was full of stones. Not only him, a man''s entire body was covered in goosebumps ¡­" "How terrifying ¡­" The more he spoke, the more afraid Ge La''s face became. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er did not seem to be worried, she anxiously said: "Little Young Master, this is real, if I were to lie to you, I will die a horrible death." He was afraid that if she didn''t believe it, she would start to swear.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was moved, but she immediately felt a warmth spreading throughout her body, "Alright, alright, my stomach is not a rock, it''s a doll, I cannot reveal the secret inside, you only know that I am healthy."


    A doll? "Ugh ¡­" Then was this child a monster that could grow so fast? It was impossible for the Fourth Prince to not be able to tell that she was a child from a famous doctor, and it was also possible that Xi Jiu Er had said that she was healthy, and that she might not be able to climb all the way out. She didn''t have a child, so she had to have seen her pregnant before right? In just a short half a month, this ¡­


    "It''s better to see a few more doctors so that we can be at ease."


    Smiling, Xi Jiu Er did not explain any further. After finishing her lunch, she stood up and went to Meng Ru Yan''s room. Meng Ru Yan was arranging the flowers, looking relaxed and relaxed. She, who was looking out of the window, was almost perfect, her deep gaze was treating the flowers in front of her as if they were her own, gentle and lovable. It was easy to tell that she was a good woman!


    "Young Master Song ¡­" Meng Ru Yan felt a line of sight, and when the winter breeze blew, he saw that Xi Jiu Er was dressed a little later than usual, still in a plain long robe, and standing under a withered old tree, it formed a lonely scene. Their gazes met, and the two of them smiled, warming the winter.


    In the room, the incense in the incense burner smelled so good ¡­ A warm current caressed his face as Ge La took off his cape on her. In order to hide his abdomen, she wore an extra winter coat today.


    "You are leaving?" Why don''t you stay for a few more days? " Meng Ru Yan waved his hand to order the servants away, leaving only his trusted aides in the room to speak: "Today, soft consort has gone to the Feng Residence, and is afraid that he might have some ideas, you should be careful."


    "Thank you for your advice." Xi Jiu Er hugged the warm hand furnace with a calm expression.


    Meng Ru Yan looked at Ge La and laughed: "Ge La can do what you want by your side, but it''s impossible for you to go out and not have anyone to protect you. Today, I will recommend one to you, and I guarantee that you will be happy. "


    Xi Jiu Er was quiet for a moment, then said: "The people you like are definitely excellent." Clutching the furnace and looking at the pattern on her sleeve, she thought of Liu Shui ¡­ The scout of Prince Xian! Liu Shui definitely had no ill intentions towards her, and Prince Xian did not have any ill intentions towards her either, but how could she be at ease with a servant girl like this by her side?


    "Miss!" The familiar voice immediately pulled Xi Jiu Er out of her memories. With that soft voice, she suddenly raised her head. The young lady in front of her, who else could she be but Liu Shui?


    "Wh-Liu Shui? You, why are you here? " Xi Jiu Er was surprised.


    Liu Shui gave the impression that he was a servant, a petite and cute girl, with a hint of foolishness on his face, but he was skilled in martial arts, and a glutton at that.


    "Miss, Liu Shui misses you so much that he''s flabbergasted ¡­" Liu Shui''s expression was so excited that he almost fell over, his wet eyes were filled with a delicate and touching look, he casually grabbed a piece of pastry from the plate and ate it before saying, "Miss, you''re too bad, you didn''t even tell Liu Shui when you sneaked out, you''re too excessive."


    Xi Jiu Er could not help but be impressed by this girl''s ability to speak so clearly even after her mouth was filled with food.


    After swallowing the pastries two or three times, under Ge La''s dumbstruck gaze, she frowned: "This is Miss''s new servant girl? "She''s pretty good-looking ¡­"


    "Ge La, this is my former servant Liu Shui. She knows martial arts and is a good person." Xi Jiu Er introduced him to Ge La as she turned her head to ask Meng Ru Yan who was drinking tea: "Is there no one else? I want to use a new person. "


    Meng Ru Yan stared blankly for a moment, looked at Xi Jiu Er with some confusion, then looked at the Liu Shui who had a face full of injuries, and shook his head: "No."


    "Miss ¡­" Liu Shui pouted his lips as if he was about to cry: "You, you don''t want Liu Shui anymore? "Why?"


    "Why? I thought you knew the reason." He did not say these words in a mocking manner. It was a very ordinary sentence, but not even the slightest bit of anger could be heard. Of course, even if others couldn''t tell, it didn''t mean that Liu Shui couldn''t. He had followed Xi Jiu Er for quite some time, and they had all gotten along sincerely, so he naturally understood each other''s true temper.


    "Miss... "I ¡­" She thought that Xi Jiu Er didn''t know, but it looks like she had already known about it since the beginning, which was why she abandoned her and left this place by herself.

 C310

    Seeing that Liu Shui had something to hide, he coughed and said: "Alright, you guys can discuss it first, then I''ll get someone to send you back." He yawned elegantly and held the servant girl''s hand to go to the inner hall.


    "Plop."


    Xi Jiu Er drank a mouthful of tea but did not see anything. Liu Shui hadn''t done anything to hurt her, so he could tell that he was sincere towards her. Perhaps he had his own reasons ¡­ He could not help but sigh in his heart. She thought that she would never have the chance to meet her again ¡­ Now that he had seen it today, how could he part with his master?


    Ge La, who was behind him, was slightly surprised.


    "Miss has let you down. Miss has guessed right, Servant is indeed a hidden snitch the Fourth Prince planted in front of Prince Xian ¡­ " She raised her head and saw that Xi Jiu Er was looking at him with a strange expression on her face, "Servant deceived Miss. Servant deserves to die, I hope Miss will give you another chance. The Fourth Prince gave the Servant to the Miss. From today onwards, the deaths of the life and death of the Servant s would be the doing of the ghost of the Miss, and no matter where the Miss goes, the Servant would follow. "


    It was not possible to tell from Xi Jiu Er''s sincere face that she was lying in the slightest. Xi Jiu Er''s gaze was fixed on Liu Shui''s brows and eyes.


    Liu Shui was overjoyed, but before he could even thank her, he saw the cold look on the young man''s face, "If you ask Feng Qing Cheng to find you another place, I have a servant here, it''s enough! "No need for you to look like you''ve just died of exhaustion." As Liu Shui lifted the teacup, he lowered his eyes and blew the tea away, no longer looking at Liu Shui''s stiff face.


    "Miss ¡­" Liu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er unexpectedly. She thought that based on his past relationship with Xi Jiu Er, the current relationship between Xi Jiu Er and his was now even deeper. There was no problem for his to become her servant. Xi Jiu Er''s rejection was far beyond her expectations ¡­ The Madame with the cold voice had already left.


    It was windy outside, so it was painful inside his nose! Ge La supported her as she carefully walked forward, saying in a soft voice, "Little Young Master, if you go back now, your stomach won''t be able to cover it anymore ¡­" His abdomen was already the same as it was when he was four or five months pregnant. Although he could cover his belly in winter, what would he do in a few months time?


    Pausing, Xi Jiu Er tilted her head and thought. She thought, looks like a rare cute, innocent and romantic girl, her eyes misted over.


    "Ge La, I feel that my brain isn''t working well recently, I''m just in a daze ¡­" Xi Jiu Er muttered to herself for a long time before saying to Ge La, "Everyone says that you''re a fool for three years, is there such a thing?"


    "Little, little Young Master ¡­ Private is a term... " That, should I confirm that this really is a child? As the master and servant left the residence, Liu Shui hurried over to kneel in front of Xi Jiu Er, and said with sadness: "It''s for little Young Master, you can take him in, little Young Master ¡­"


    Ge La glanced at Xi Jiu Er, who was completely deaf, and walked in front of Liu Shui and said in a soft voice: "Big sister Liu Shui, the little Young Master doesn''t feel well right now, come again after she feels better. He has the best heart, he will definitely agree to it." With that said, she looked at Liu Shui who was helping Xi Jiu Er up the carriage.


    Feng Qing Cheng had already left for a quarter of an hour now and Liu Shui was waiting for him dejectedly at the entrance of the Palace. He pouted unhappily and said, "Fourth Prince, little Young Master doesn''t want you, Servant. What do you think we should do? "


    "Where is he?" Feng Qing Cheng threw the reins to the servant, he then shook his robes, and moved like Liu Shui. Liu Shui looked at him with grief and unwillingly said, "The little Young Master has already returned to the manor ¡­"


    "Gone?" Feng Qing Cheng''s movements paused, he looked towards the Song Mansion, the marks on the ground were new, and he should have just left not long ago. smiled as he landed behind her: "Fourth Prince, little Young Master already knows that Servant is your secret guard that has been planted by Prince Xian''s side. You better properly plead for Servant. If little Young Master doesn''t want Servant to follow you, Servant will hate you to death. "


    "Giddy up!" Feng Qing Cheng lashed out with his whip in the direction of the Song Mansion. When the two of them were having fun on the first night, he noticed the change in Xi Jiu Er''s stomach. After half a month, her originally slightly bulging stomach was growing at an alarming rate, to the point that his jaw dropped in fright. With his intelligence, he immediately understood the crux of the matter ¡­ He didn''t believe that Xi Jiu Er didn''t know? Why did she leave at this time? Why didn''t you tell him! Did she really want to have three years of life in her heart?


    "Giddy up!" Feng Qing Cheng''s horse was a Ferghana Horse, a good horse that could pick out horses from the hundreds. In a short while, it had caught up to Xi Jiu Er, and went around to force the coachman to stop the carriage.


    "Little Young Master, the fourth prince is here." the coachman called.


    The expression on Xi Jiu Er''s face did not change as she pretended to be asleep, "Let him in." Ge La immediately went out, and the cold wind blew over, causing her to shiver. She blew warmly at the wind, walked up to Feng Qing Cheng and bowed, and with the two words'' guarding '', a cold wind blew past her nose, as she had already gone into the carriage.


    Xi Jiu Er took a comfortable position and glanced at Feng Qing Cheng. Today, she was dressed in a green robe with rolling white sides. She closed her eyes and lazily asked, "What are you doing here?"


    "You leave without saying goodbye."


    "Just for this?" The corner of her mouth curled up, "Alright, I''ll inform you now, I''m going back to the Song Mansion. I''ve already stayed here for half a month, if you don''t go back now, I''m afraid that I''ll be worried."


    slowly opened his eyes and touched the gentle looking Feng Qing Cheng. He did not speak, and waited for further instructions.


    "Let''s talk about the children." Feng Qing Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you really want your child to be pregnant for one and a half years before it is willing to give birth?"


    Xi Jiu Er thought that Liu Shui was involved, but upon hearing those words, she immediately understood that Feng Qing Cheng had guessed something, and rolled his tongue. He then said: "Of course not, I want to see him as soon as possible, but the current situation is unstable, so even if we give birth to our child early, it will not necessarily be beneficial for you and me. With the death of Prince Rong, your left and right wolf, tiger, leopard and leopard are all watching you. Also, since soft consort has gone to the Feng Residence today, he will definitely think of a way to deal with the two of us ¡­ " He gradually stopped and was no longer listening.


    "Jiu Er, I have a way to ensure the safety of you and our child. If not, wouldn''t it be better if our child was born early and our family reunited?" How could Xi Jiu Er not see the urgency in Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes? Slowly, they lowered their eyes to look at each other in silence for the rest of their lives.


    "Jiu Er!" Feng Qing Cheng forced Xi Jiu Er to raise her chin. Their four eyes met, staring at each other without letting go, as calm as water. After scheming for so many years, I still have the ability to protect my wife and children. Leave it to me, you can only wait in peace ¡­ They both say that husband and wife are one. Back then, when you said that you would take revenge on your own, I listened to you. Now that you''re pregnant, you just have to give me a baby. I''ll do the rest. "


    His heart trembled slightly, he pursed his lips. Just as Xi Jiu Er was about to say something, he saw Feng Qing Cheng''s face change, and immediately asked: "What''s wrong?"


    "Damn it!" Someone drugged me. " Feng Qing Cheng cursed, his face becoming gloomy, but his eyes became extremely strange: "It''s an extremely overbearing aphrodisiac!"


    "Fourth Prince, a pair of men is coming this way." Liu Shui''s voice came out from outside the carriage.


    Xi Jiu Er and Feng Qing Cheng simultaneously thought of one word: catch the traitor!

 C311

    A large group of people galloped over, led by the Wind Nation Lord''s personal guard deputy general, Tong An. His snake like eyes were shining with excitement, as long as 10% of the time, he would be able to obtain the position of general. Although it seemed like he was only a step away, the difference in status was countless.


    The carriage in front was labeled with Fourth Prince''s Estate, so Tong An shouted from afar: "Follow him, the criminal is right in front, you must not let him escape." When they passed by Feng Qing Cheng''s carriage, he coughed to catch the attention of the people in the carriage: "Excuse me, is this the Fourth Prince?"


    "What is it?" Her voice was cold and without any ripples. There was nothing out of the ordinary about it.


    Tong An was startled. Didn''t the soft consort Empress say that the medicine she drugged was extremely tyrannical? Wasn''t it a secret medicine that had been lost in the palace? Even Sun Kongming''s disciple couldn''t do anything about it. He had to befriend someone in order to release it. He counted the number of people and knew that it must be the Fourth Prince and the Young Master Song inside the carriage. soft consort said that this medicine could last up to six hours and men would not fall ¡­


    Tong An cupped his hands and said: "Fourth Prince, please forgive me. Someone had attempted to assassinate the soft consort''s Empress today, and this lowly subordinate has chased you all the way here. May I ask if Fourth Prince has seen any suspicious people? "


    "Can''t." The voice that came from the carriage was as cold and noble as usual, when he suddenly remembered that had been practicing martial arts for a long time, so how could he not hear it? He was overjoyed. So he was only trying to control himself and said, "Fourth Prince? What''s the matter with you? "


    "Nothing." Jane realized that she was angry.


    Tong An''s subordinate was also clever, and immediately went forward to advise him. "Vice General Tong, the Fourth Prince usually treats people with courtesy, but today, he is so cold ¡­ Could it be that the criminal was in the carriage? "Not good, the criminal must have kidnapped the fourth prince ¡­"


    "That''s right, that must be it." Tong An clapped his hands: "Fourth Prince, for your safety, I have offended you."


    pursed his lips when he saw the two of them acting, and immediately shouted after hearing what Tong An had said: "Impudent, how can you just watch the Fourth Prince''s carriage?" Ge La was furious as he blocked the carriage. He looked at her and asked, "Didn''t the assistant general say that there is a thief? Seeing that the deputy general wasn''t in a hurry at all, could it be just a pretense? You want to embarrass the fourth prince? Although the fourth prince usually treated people with modesty, he could not allow himself to be humiliated like this! With the Prince Rong gone, the Fourth Prince was unable to suppress his grief ¡­ Are you trying to add insult to injury? The assassination attempt on the soft consort was very far away from the Feng Residence. This assassin was truly strange, he would not go inside the mountain and kidnap a prince! Did you see that? This is the fourth prince''s bodyguard. Even though she might be young, her martial arts are definitely not inferior to yours. "


    Ge La sputtered a long string of words, causing Tong An''s face to turn slightly red as she said in fear: "Fourth Prince, I definitely do not have that intention." Staring at Ge La, she should be the servant of the Young Master Song.


    "Really?" Then do we still need to search? " The sound of the carriage sounded again, and there was another voice among them, and it was somewhat moving and charming. Tong An was startled, how could he not understand what the voice meant? He harrumphed, "Your subordinate is also worried about the Fourth Prince''s comfort. Afterwards, how will the Fourth Prince punish this lowly subordinate? This lowly subordinate has nothing to say." The premise is that you have a chance!


    "How dare you!" Liu Shui bellowed, his body suddenly scuttled forward to fight with Tong An, his movements was extremely fast, and he made his moves quickly and accurately. Originally, when Tong An saw her petite and delicate figure, he thought that Ge La was just bluffing and underestimated her. In just a few moves, he was ruthlessly beaten up by Liu Shui, and was beaten into such a sorry state in front of his loyal subordinates.


    "Have you caused enough trouble!" Feng Qing Cheng lifted the curtain of the carriage and alighted from the carriage. Her clothes were neat and tidy, her pitch-black hair was not the least bit messy, and her expression was normal. Young Master Song, who was about to alight from the carriage, pulled up his cape. His small face was as white as jade and his eyes were even clearer than the clear spring water.


    Liu Shui withdrew his aura and landed behind Xi Jiu Er. With a face full of contempt, he completely looked down on Tong An and muttered to himself, "Your skills are extremely bad, you will definitely take the back door."


    "Look at his stupid and weak body, tell me how many soldiers he will bring back from the battlefield." Ge La whispered in her ear. The voices of the two were not loud, but they were loud enough to be heard clearly. Tong An had never been on the battlefield before, so he had indeed taken the back door ¡­ There were plenty of people who looked down on him, but he had the soft consort behind him, and the Prince Rong as a mountain. Now that the Prince Rong was dead, Tong An''s days could be easily imagined. Other than a few loyal ones, the others had all turned traitor, not putting him in their eyes and treating his words as fart.


    Tong An''s face was completely red, he couldn''t wait to throw the two muttering women into the brothel. Of course, he was only thinking about it. That woman was extremely skilled, and he was not her match. He could only be sinister! A malicious plan suddenly appeared in his mind.


    "Lift up the curtain and let Vice General Tong see clearly if the assassin is hiding inside." Xi Jiu Er said, she did not leave the sinister look in Tong An''s eyes. She thought to herself, "This Vice General Tong is really petty. As a soldier in command of a soldier, he can''t even stand to say a few words."


    When the curtain was lifted, other than a simple decoration, there was nothing else! Tong An clenched his teeth... Of course he knew there weren''t any assassins around! Suddenly, an embarrassed expression appeared on his face as he cupped his hands and said, "This lowly servant is too reckless. Since the assassin is not here, he must have fled ¡­" "We''ll chase."


    "Chasing after what? You want to humiliate the Fourth Prince and run away?" What did you say just now? If you didn''t find the assassin, how could you have dealt with him? Ge La opened his mouth again.


    Tong An''s face was the color of a pig''s liver. This was the first time he had nearly insulted him with a finger. The man who gave advice came over and said, "Vice General, quickly apologize and leave. Zhao Jiang will be here soon."


    Who is Zhao Jiang? Zhao Jiang was Vice General Tong''s sworn enemy, so the two of them joined the army together. This Zhao Jiang did not have a good relationship with him, but he did have real ability. Originally, Tong An had levelled up by quite a few levels in a row, and in front of Zhao Jiang, he was feeling extremely pleased with himself. Everyone in the personal guard would need to give them some face, not to mention the position of commander. This time, Tong An''s heart was extremely unbalanced!


    This Zhao Jiang made him the second wave of people to arrive at soft consort. He also wanted to indirectly vent some of his anger on Tong An. Tong An was someone of the soft consort, so once the good news of Feng Qing Cheng became a reality, there would be no way to cover up this royal scandal. After killing Feng Qing Cheng, based on the strength of the soft consort, he would definitely be able to rise again.


    Now that the matter was settled, he might even get scolded by Zhao Jiang. One must know that Zhao Jiang''s official position was bigger than his, and there was an Emperor above him.

 C312

    "Wait for this lowly subordinate to capture the murderer and he will definitely come back to beg for forgiveness." Tong An got on the horse and was about to leave, but Xi Jiu Er gave her a meaningful look, as if he was very happy, and blocked the horse, asking for an explanation. This Liu Shui belonged to the Fourth Prince, and the muscles on his face were already jumping up and down ¡­ He patiently said: "Get out of the way, the fourth prince didn''t say anything. Why is it that a single guard like you has so many troubles?"


    Just now, he had said, "Vice General, quickly apologize and leave. Zhao Jiang will be here soon." Other than Ge La and the wagon driver, they heard everything. Zhao Jiang is someone close to the Emperor, he is honest, loyal and deeply trusted. Since Tong An had already joined the game, he would definitely not let him leave so easily.


    Zhao Jiang''s team has arrived! Zhao Jiang could be considered the typical late bloomer type of man, and kept his silence until he almost turned thirty years old, only then did he soar into the sky. I heard that he married two Madame s, the first one ran off with a rich man, and the second one ran off with him. This made him, Old mother, to be anxious until words came out of his mouth, Zhao Jiang was helpless. His identity was different now, so many women stuck close to him, how could he be happy? At a glance, these women could tell that they were not living the life they wanted.


    Old Madame was also a man of reason. She did not have high requirements for his daughter-in-law, as long as she did not mind the fact that she was poor and loved rich. It was said that only the rich and poor could grow old. If the Zhao Family ever got into trouble, it was fine if they didn''t run away.


    Zhao Jiang''s appearance was very ordinary, and was basically unremarkable within the crowd. No one had the feeling that their eyes would brighten up. Square face, thick eyebrows, thick lips... It must be said that he had an honest face. However, he had the composure of a mature man. He alighted from the horse and bowed, "Subordinate Zhao Jiang greets His Highness the Fourth Prince."


    "Get up."


    Young Master Song smiled slightly: "Greetings, Commander Zhao."


    Zhao Jiang turned his head, and what entered his eyes was a short Young Noble with a beautiful jade face and red lips. His figure could also be seen through the thin cloak. Standing together with the fourth prince, they were actually quite symmetrical. Both of them possessed a cold and noble aura. Originally, he was not clear about Xi Jiu Er''s identity, but after seeing the carriage, he said: "Greetings Young Master Song."


    "Vice General Tong, what happened here?" Didn''t you go after the assassin? " Zhao Jiang asked expressionlessly, and it could even be said that he was serious, and his tone sounded full of questions. Actually, this was a habit of Zhao Jiang''s, he was always stiff and expressionless! Tong An understood him, and at this moment, he felt that Zhao Jiang was questioning him, causing him to feel even more ashamed.


    "You!" Tong An choked as he was rendered speechless. Then, Ge La began to recount what had happened as she cupped her hands and said apologetically: "Fourth Prince, this was all a misunderstanding. Tong An, quickly apologize to the fourth prince. "


    All the humiliation in his life had been used up today! Tong An bit her lips until they were about to tear... How could the people beside him not understand Tong An''s temperament? He whispered, "Vice General, it won''t be too late to take revenge when we have the chance in the future."


    Only then did Tong An unwillingly dismount from his horse to apologize to the Fourth Prince, his eyes filled with viciousness. After receiving Feng Qing Cheng''s orders, he stood up and left without looking at his horse.


    Zhao Jiang looked at his retreating back and apologized to the Fourth Prince: "Vice General Tong has such a temper, Fourth Prince, do not take it to heart."


    "Nope." Feng Qing Cheng asked soft consort about the assassination attempt, but Zhao Jiang was not clear about that. He only said that he coincidentally met soft consort when he was walking past, and came over.


    Xi Jiu Er, who had been silent all this time, finally opened her mouth: "It really looks good."


    Zhao Jiang pretended not to hear it, "Fourth Prince, this lowly one will be leaving first."


    After Zhao Jiang brought his men and left, Xi Jiu Er instructed Liu Shui: "You can go and kill Tong An now." When Xi Jiu Er said ''kill,'' it was as easy as saying she was going to eat. Her small face that was the size of a palm was really cold.


    "Little Young Master wants Liu Shui to disguise as an assassin? "Wow!" Hearing that Xi Jiu Er had arranged for his to do something, Liu Shui was overjoyed. "Don''t worry, it''s just a few pustules, Liu Shui will be fine with it."


    In the carriage, Xi Jiu Er was silent. Then she came over and asked: "What are you thinking about?"


    "I think this Zhao Jiang is very smart." Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyes and said indifferently. Intelligence had always understood what she was doing. Zhao Jiang pretended not to hear what she said just now. Maybe he heard it, maybe he didn''t... At least, he didn''t hear it right now.


    "What do you want them to do? We''re not done with what we said just now. Come back with me. You stay at home and wait for it. Leave the rest to me." Feng Qing Cheng held Xi Jiu Er''s hand and pinched it, turning her attention over to him.


    Xi Jiu Er smirked and said, "I don''t know if you are truly foolish or just faking it, but if you want to see this child as soon as possible, we must reconcile our yin and yang. Since you have called me into hiding, you should have at least come to see me. If your location is not exposed today, it will be exposed tomorrow. Just based on the fact that you think that the Fourth Prince''s Estate who has been wiped clean still has spies? "


    Feng Qing Cheng glared at Xi Jiu Er. "Believe me, I definitely won''t let you and your child get into a difficult situation."


    Commitment? What was a promise? Doing it was the real thing! was not so easy to deal with. He had seen his erratic personality before, and if he got agitated, Feng Qing Cheng might even do something unexpected. Calm him down first.


    "I believe you, but as a mother, I don''t want to take risks with children. Wouldn''t it be better to wait until the big business is done, and then be ready for labor under your eyes? Now you are surrounded by Chu Ge, what if the child and I become your weakness? who knows how hard it is for us to make it this far? " Xi Jiu Er leaned on Feng Qing Cheng''s shoulder, and revealed a gentle expression. Feng Qing Cheng loved her to be like this the most, and it was rare for her to be obedient like this.


    "But ¡ª" Feng Qing Cheng held onto her tenderly, "There''s still a long way to go."


    "My whole life, I can''t bear this amount of time?"


    Feng Qing Cheng loved to hear these words, for life! Xi Jiu Er''s meaning was to live with him for the rest of her life! Joy filled his heart as he hugged Xi Jiu Er tighter, and said in an incomparably lovable voice, "Alright, we still have a lifetime time. When the time comes, we can have a few more children ¡­ "


    Feng Qing Cheng was looking forward to the future and fantasizing about a beautiful life. Xi Jiu Er had to say that the gentleness of a woman could turn any tough guy into a gentle wriggling of her fingers. It was a weapon that a man could not defend against! A good future? From what Feng Qing Cheng said, it seemed like there was only the two of them in the future. There were no harem women, no court disputes, no deceit, there were only two people''s lives?


    Is that possible? She had once thought of finding a man to marry. She didn''t ask for anything good, she just wanted him to bring her along so that they could spend the rest of their lives together. To live a new life, to live a new life, to live a new life ¡­ Affection... She really couldn''t afford it. Feng Qing Cheng would become the future king of Wind Nation and all the beauties in the world would belong to him ¡­ And then what about her? When the novelty was gone, when they looked at each other, she tried to please him, and he tried to avoid the final disgust.


    Had she ever seen such a case before? But ¡ª Sometimes the warmth Feng Qing Cheng gave her made her feel as if she was being cared for. She didn''t need to be strong or cold. She could act like a spoiled child and be unbridled and willful ¡­


    But, with the addition of something else ¡­ Everything could deteriorate. The love they had for each other was gone in an instant! It''s good to be like this ¡­ Good...

 C313

    With Xi Jiu Er''s rare gentleness, Feng Qing Cheng decided to agree with her. Wait until the situation stabilized before he gave birth, that would mean that he could only look but not enjoy himself. Returning to the Song Mansion, Feng Qing Cheng went to pay a visit to Song Yun Shan. The window paper had already been punctured and Feng Qing Cheng went straight to the point: "This time I came to tell Master Song that you don''t need to go to the North."


    Song Yun Shan turned his head and knew that the Prince Rong was probably in there playing tricks on him. Right now, the only one who could challenge the throne was the man in front of him, and it was difficult to hide the complex feeling in his heart. He planned to ask Feng Qing Cheng when the dust would settle, and upon realizing that his identity was not suitable, he raised his teacup and drank a mouthful without saying a word.


    "Jiu Er is pregnant, we need more protection from the Master Song." Feng Qing Cheng said as he looked at Xi Jiu Er and the child with an indescribable gentleness in his eyes. It was as if an unremarkable stone had fallen onto the calm lake surface, rippling in circles. That peerless appearance immediately reduced the value of the house.


    "Yes, this humble subject understands." Song Yun Shan nodded. Xi Jiu Er is pregnant? This was Feng Qing Cheng''s first child, the future eldest son of the emperor! For some reason, he had a strong premonition that this child was a boy!


    Feng Qing Cheng did it for a while before he couldn''t help but pay a visit to Xi Jiu Er''s place. Only when he was sick did he reluctantly leave, leaving Liu Shui behind as he pitifully said: "Little Young Master, how about you just trust Servant once? Servant did not have to do this because he had no other choice ¡­ Little Young Master, you''re the best, I beg you to let me follow you ¡­ "Sob, sob, sob ¡­"


    After dealing with this, Feng Qing Cheng still needed to look at Liu Shui''s pitiful face. His face was so pitiful that people would cry, and her heart would soften a lot with a child. She believed that there would be retribution in this world after her rebirth. As a mother, he naturally wanted to let his child grow up safely and healthy and accumulate good fortune for him. Liu Shui had been with her for a long time, and had never done anything to hurt her. Sometimes, even when she told the Prince Xian of her whereabouts, she would actually save her life multiple times.


    Xi Jiu Er was stunned, this logic was really strange, her heart was troubled. Initially, Madame Zhao also said that since she was pregnant, not only did she not have a good brain, even her personality was volatile, temperamental and unable to control herself. At that time, she didn''t think too much about it, but it looked like she was really close to the Madame Zhao.


    "Little Young Master ¡­" Liu Shui had already made up his mind. He would shamelessly, grind and use all sorts of methods. He did not believe that Xi Jiu Er would not agree. He choked: "If little Young Master does not accept little Servant, Servant has nowhere to go. The size of the Servant and her own mother depended on each other for their lives. After that, the mother left without saying goodbye, and there was no one else in the world besides the little Young Master who treated me so well ¡­ If the little Young Master didn''t want Liu Shui, then how could there be a place for the Servant in this world to live forever ¡­ "Sob, sob ¡­"


    Originally, they wanted to move Xi Jiu Er, but as they spoke, their hearts were filled with grief and disbelief. Liu Shui was like a child who had lost his loved one, or was abandoned by someone with a lot of trust as he started crying, catching both Xi Jiu Er and Ge La by surprise. Xi Jiu Er was slightly better, as she more or less understood Liu Shui''s personality.


    She had seen Liu Shui''s martial arts before, it was very, very strong, many times stronger than those experts of their country. However, such an expert was crying like a young child. It was simply too hard for her to accept.


    "Little Young Master, why don''t you agree? Servant''s skills in looking at Miss Liu Shui are extremely high and little Young Master''s body is not in a good condition right now. He needs someone to protect his." Ge La tried to advise Xi Jiu Er otherwise, why don''t you just cry? One was tall and the other was low, her voice was hoarse and her ears were about to burst.


    Xi Jiu Er''s face sank as she shouted: "Have you cried enough!"


    Liu Shui trembled and immediately shut his mouth. He looked at Xi Jiu Er with sobs and said, "Little Young Master doesn''t care about Liu Shui, she doesn''t care about Liu Shui anymore ¡­ Liu Shui was very sad ¡­ "So sad ¡­" He took out a steamed bun from his robes and bit at it as though he was complaining. He felt wronged.


    Xi Jiu Er patiently sighed as she said, "Liu Shui, actually, I don''t have any sense of security at all. I don''t care about anything but revenge. Only betrayal is unbearable. You may have your difficulties, but the truth is that no one can change it, right? "Even if you don''t betray me in the future, I still have a thorn in my heart. This thorn won''t endanger my life, but from time to time, I''ll make you feel pain. It''s very uncomfortable."


    "Then, it''s fine if little Young Master doesn''t think about it. People should think of some beautiful things when they are alive. How uncomfortable is it to think of those painful things every day? Looking at Servant, I feel so sad that I have to eat, and I won''t feel sad anymore! Little Young Master can also find ways to not be sad! " Liu Shui blinked his eyes and said very innocently. When he said these words, he also taught Xi Jiu Er a lesson.


    Xi Jiu Er choked, Ge La was stunned. The two of them thought to themselves: It''s good to live so simply!


    "Liu Shui, do you ever hate someone? So much hatred that she cannot even beg for death? " Xi Jiu Er sat in a comfortable position and planned to properly answer this question. She had already known that Liu Shui had nothing but martial arts, but his thoughts were simple, he would do whatever he was told, sometimes smart, sometimes confused. Sigh, it''s a good thing that my martial arts skills won''t lose out!


    "No!" Liu Shui shook his head as he looked at Xi Jiu Er blankly. After a period of silence, his expression became a little lonely: "If there''s only one person I hate, it''s the mother. but it''s not to the point where she can''t even beg for death. "


    Xi Jiu Er had never asked about Liu Shui''s past. At this time, she mentioned her mother a second time, and other than pain, there was also hope in her eyes. No hatred! Quiet and quiet, Xi Jiu Er did not open her eyes to look at the flowers on the shelves.


    "Liu Shui!" He gave a long sigh as he turned around and said sternly, "Go find your mother and ask her why she abandoned you that year."


    "So what if we find it? Get an answer? "Whatever the answer is, it makes me sad." Liu Shui lifted her head and asked seriously, "As long as she can come find me, no matter what, I will be happy. But she didn''t! What''s the point of looking for her? "


    "Liu Shui, look, you are just like your mother. Your mother is your thorn and you are my thorn. Although it doesn''t hurt or hate, I don''t want you to have the same temperament as your mother if you don''t go find me. " Xi Jiu Er found the entrance to the problem, hoping that Liu Shui would understand.


    Liu Shui did not disappoint her as he thought about it. He went from deep thought to enlightenment and said: "But Little Young Master, Servant would be very happy when it comes to finding Servant. There is still room for discussion regarding mother and daughter. Why would the little Young Master be unhappy, unhappy, and not have any leeway to turn the situation around? "


    Xi Jiu Er facepalmed, not knowing how to speak. "Because we are different."


    "Is it because little Young Master is smarter than Servant? Servant knew, and admired him. But little Young Master doesn''t know any martial arts, wasn''t it also tied? Besides, the Buddha said that all living things are equal, is it not the same? " Liu Shui asked with a blank expression.


    Xi Jiu Er felt a lump in her chest, and her temper rose after being annoyed by Liu Shui for a long time. She said impatiently: "Alright, alright, you may leave."


    "Little Young Master ¡­" Liu Shui still wanted to say something, but Ge La said hurriedly: "Aiyo, feed it to my aunt, go back and rest. Little Young Master''s intention is for you to stay behind and wait upon me."


    "Really." Liu Shui did not believe what Ge La said, and looked straight at him.


    Xi Jiu Er dropped her hand and said seriously: "It''s more true than that I''m a woman."


    "Great, Servant thanks little Young Master, Servant will leave now ¡­"


    Liu Shui had not finished speaking when Xi Jiu Er hurriedly said: "Go and rest! "Hurry up and go."


    Once they left, Ge La wiped off her cold sweat, "Little Young Master, Servant looks at Miss Liu Shui with wisdom."


    "Wise and foolish." Xi Jiu Er coldly snorted.

 C314

    Thunder and lightning suddenly flashed in the sky, and the snowflakes that were as big as goose feathers fell with the wind. Xi Jiu Er caressed her lower abdomen as she stood before the window and said indifferently: "It''s going to change!" It was warm in the house, and the winter air was blocked by a thick sheet of paper that had been pasted over the windows. Right now, the window was making a ''pa pa'' sound. The people standing in the yard outside were rushing in and out, and they could hear the servants talking about something from afar.


    "My little Young Master, come back quickly." Ge La carefully pulled Xi Jiu Er closer, and when she suddenly turned around, she was startled. A girl with a cheeky face stood behind her, with big eyes, and said adorably: "I''m back, do you have anything to eat?"


    Ge La patted her chest to pacify her heart that had instantly stopped working. She could not help but roll her eyes in annoyance, "I say, Miss Liu Shui, why don''t you make some noise when you''re walking next time, don''t you know how scary you are? You almost scared me to death? "


    Liu Shui obviously did not take it to heart, as he looked for a place to eat with a carefree expression. He found a box on a cupboard and opened it to look, then said happily: "The little Young Master is so good to Servant, they are all things that Servant likes to eat."


    "Look, the Servant said that she can find it even if it''s hidden in the toilet." Ge La only wanted to tease his a little. She felt that although Liu Shui seemed to be very friendly to his, every time she stood behind his back like a ghost without making a sound, and even acted as if he was innocent. His instincts told her that Liu Shui didn''t really like his.


    How could Xi Jiu Er not understand the little things that happened between the two of them? After sitting down, he asked Liu Shui who was eating heartily: How''s the matter going?


    "It''s all placed on Cao Nan''s table!" Liu Shui''s cheeks were puffed up from eating so much, his speech was exceptionally clear. With her, he had saved a lot of time and energy.


    "Burp ¡ª ¡ª" Liu Shui burped at Ge La, and the look in his disgusted eyes became more serious. "When Servant passed Prime Minister Cao''s study room, he heard what Prime Minister Cao and Cao Qing were talking about, and there were quite a few people guarding outside. Servant was very curious, what kind of earth-shattering secret could he possibly hear? So ¡ª Servant went to eavesdrop. Little Young Master, guess what Servant heard. "


    Prime Minister Cao and Cao Qing were discussing things? Cao Qing was publicly acknowledged to be an idiot, but he was also publicly acknowledged to have extremely good methods when it came to playing with women. He had heard from Feng Qing Cheng that Cao Qing still had one more skill that he did not reveal, and that was the smuggling of underground women.


    His father''s concubinage was all incomparably gorgeous, and he was once again seduced by a servant girl. After tasting the taste of the ecstasy of death, he began to make his move on his father''s woman. At first, Cao Qing did not know that his father was this unruly and forgetful, or that the two of them had been discovered, so he admitted his wrongs and vowed to change his mind.


    Cao Qing couldn''t stop himself from eating feces. With so many beauties surrounding him to seduce him, how could he not act when he was a monk? And so, he started on the path of selling girls privately, playing with women that Prime Minister Cao couldn''t remember! Not only had Cao Qing played with his, he had also made a huge profit.


    Who would have thought that after the Prime Minister Cao broke down, they would even praise Cao Qing as a genius, and obtain his true inheritance. Cao Qing became even more insolent. After Cao Nan found out about this, he taught him a lesson. It allowed Cao Qing to calm down for a while, and then began to stir up again. As long as it was not too much, Cao Nan would turn a blind eye. This matter was definitely something that the Prime Minister Cao would agree to.


    The Prince Rong was dead now. As the Prime Minister Cao that was pulled over by the Prince Rong in the past and had been successfully pulled over, what was he going to do now? of course it was to cut open his own heart to Feng Qing Cheng ¡­


    "Is it related to Xi Wan Feng?" Xi Jiu Er said his guess, but when she saw Liu Shui looking at him in shock, she knew that his guess was right. From the Prime Minister Cao''s point of view, Xi Wan Feng was like an ant that could be casually trampled to death.


    "Little Young Master, you are really smart. How can you be so smart?" Liu Shui''s eyes were almost popping out of his head. She was surprised at first, but he was not surprised at all when facing his little Young Master!


    "Tomorrow, we''ll go to Prime Minister''s Estate." Xi Jiu Er suddenly realised, she should be happy that Xi Wan Feng had fallen, but why was her heart so calm? Why? Thinking back to how they looked like people who were neither human nor ghost, and how they were even kept in the dark by Xi Wan Feng and the others, taking themselves as thieves and becoming mothers ¡­ Hatred was not that strong now ¡­


    Had she changed? Xi Jiu Er questioned herself? No, there was no change in her heart, then why was Xi Wan Feng so calm?


    That night, the old Madame came over, and Xi Jiu Er''s pale face carried a look of sickness, as she said indifferently: "Please forgive me Old Lady Zhang, my body is not feeling well today, so I will not pay my respects to the old Madame."


    "Where did the little Young Master come from? We''re all family, why are you being so courteous?" Compared to when she first entered Song Mansion, she had a complacent expression and a haughty look.


    Xi Jiu Er did not speak as if she did not hear anything. This tea seemed to be no different from ordinary tea. The taste was about the same, but the effects were completely different.


    Seeing Song Tian''s attitude, the Old Lady Zhang was angered, he snorted with an impatient expression, but continued to speak patiently: "Your mother is pregnant, so I decided not to disturb you, old granny, so I''ve come to find you, little Young Master."


    It''s not that he didn''t want to disturb him, but he was driven out by the stone mother. Xi Jiu Er looked at Old Lady Zhang, as if she was waiting for the next part. Although she did not have anyone in the house, just Liu Shui and Ge La, the two smart people, could tell even the slightest movement. So she was well aware of the reason why the Old Lady Zhang was looking for him!


    "It''s like this, don''t you think that Cui Lan is your Song Mansion''s Sister-in-law? I just looked at the gift list, it''s not enough. " Just as Old Lady Zhang finished speaking, Ge La who was at the side had her eyes roll out, it was not enough! Oh my god, it was already twice as much as the Miss''s gifts, and Xi Jiu Er had even given this to him out of respect for her obedience.


    "Then how much does Old Lady Zhang want?" Xi Jiu Er asked very calmly. This property belonged to Song Yun Shan, and up till now, she had never used Song Mansion''s silver, so she would let go of everything Madame Song gave her. Zhang Cui Lan originally did not have that many gifts, so only half of it came from the Madame Song and the rest came from the Old Lady Zhang.


    Right now, not only did Old Lady Zhang not send out more, she was too greedy.


    The effect of Zhang Cui Lan marrying Cao Qing was already negligible, and if nothing went wrong with the Wind Nation, Feng Qing Cheng''s ascension to the throne would be just around the corner. Of course, Feng Qing Cheng would not allow any accidents to happen! She thought for a long time, but still couldn''t understand why Prime Minister Cao would suddenly take care of Xi Wan Feng. The only thing that could be said was that Feng Qing Cheng had been working hard inside, which indirectly meant that the Prime Minister Cao was completely Feng Qing Cheng''s person.

 C315

    This person from the Prime Minister Cao had the ability, he was a pervert! Feng Qing Cheng already had the plan for the ''one court zodiac and one official'', but the time was not right yet. This Zhang Cui Lan was also selfish. Initially, her goal was to get involved with Xi Wan Feng, but now that Xi Wan Feng had become a cripple who had lost all his limbs, there was no need for him to marry Cao Qing. If she wanted to deal with the Cao family in the future, she would have to endure the risk of backlash.


    Then looking at the Old Lady Zhang again ¡­ Xi Jiu Er had a headache, her heart was also starting to become agitated, and she coldly said: "Old Lady Zhang, is it too much?"


    "How could that be? "Only like this would it be suitable for the Cao family''s marriage." Old Lady Zhang looked over with a pout: "You haven''t even made a family, how can you know all this!"


    "Since you don''t understand, go talk to the mother." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    The old Madame choked on her words and stood up, choked, "What do you mean?"


    "What do you mean, what else can you mean? If Old Lady Zhang thinks that the dowry is not enough, then add it, don''t forget, Zhang Cui Lan''s surname is Zhang, not Song. "Not only did the Song Family give her a lot of dowry to take on her as an adopted daughter, but they also found her a good marriage. It''s already enough to be worthy of her."


    Although what he said was the truth, it became an ear-piercing sarcasm in Old Lady Zhang''s ears. These words were even said by a junior, and immediately made Old Lady Zhang feel like she had nowhere to put his old face, and couldn''t get off the stage. His face was flushed and she did not show any signs of venting. Finally, she thought of the breakthrough point of this matter. "Good marriage? That Cao Qing was idle and lustful, he was not a good match at all. I still want to ask you Song Family, what exactly do you mean by marrying Cui Lan to the Song Family? Don''t think that I don''t understand what your Song Family is planning, and why are you not giving us any benefits after using it. "


    "Grandmother." The door opened with a ''bang'', causing Zhang Cui Lan to practically scream: "What nonsense are you spouting?"


    "What nonsense am I spouting? Anyone can easily find out the temper of this Second Young Master Cao. Who needs me to tell them?" The Old Lady Zhang was unhappy, she glared at Zhang Cui Lan as if accusing her of eating the enemy out.


    "The Grandmother is not what you think." Zhang Cui Lan was extremely anxious in her heart. She cursed at this Old Lady Zhang and wished that she would immediately die. She was very satisfied with the gift. It was beyond her expectations. When she heard the servants say that the Old Lady Zhang had gone to find the Madame Song, she suddenly had a bad feeling about it ¡­


    Just in time to hear this old bastard talk again. She knew that Song Tian was indeed using her previously. As for what he was using her for, she wasn''t too sure, but thinking about the relationship between the Madame Song s and the fourth prince''s imperial concubine, she vaguely understood something. But now that Prince Rong was dead, in the future, the Fourth Prince would be the Emperor ¡­ As she thought about it, the value she had now was not worth mentioning at all.


    Only after being kicked in the head by a donkey would Prime Minister Cao come out and fight with the future zodiac! Unless he had the ability to support Seventh Prince or The Eighteenth Prince to ascend the throne. Obviously, this was a fantasy story. She had glanced at the Fourth Prince before, and his intuition told his that beneath his devastatingly beautiful countenance was definitely not simple.


    The corners of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth slowly raised upwards, but her eyes were abnormally calm, as if she was smiling yet not smiling at all, outlining the beauty that would devour the soul. Since Old Lady Zhang says that we are harming him ¡­ If you want to continue, go to the Prime Minister''s Estate and tell us in front of the Young Master Cao that you are canceling the engagement. What we said before doesn''t count at all. "


    "No." Zhang Cui Lan almost screamed out, "Miss Liu Shui, don''t go."


    Liu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er, and the light in her eyes drooped slightly. She then stood still: "I''ll listen to Little Young Master whether or not I go."


    Old Lady Zhang never thought that Xi Jiu Er would actually cancel the engagement. She had broken the engagement with just a simple sentence? Do you take her whole old woman for a monkey?


    "Hmph, I want to see if you have the ability to do so." The Old Lady Zhang didn''t know the whole story, and thought that the marriage was just a marriage proposed by the Prime Minister Cao. Since ancient times, it had always been a marriage ordered by the parents, and wasn''t something that could be annulled with a simple sentence.


    "Liu Shui!" Xi Jiu Er''s voice was very cold, and the originally cold voice was even colder without emotion.


    Liu Shui just said the word ''yes'' and his figure disappeared. Zhang Cui Lan knew that Xi Jiu Er was angry, and wanted to stop him, but she disappeared in a second and she looked at Xi Jiu Er pleadingly: "Big brother, everyone in Yan Du knows that I am going to marry Cao Er Young Master, if this marriage goes away, who will still want me?"


    "Go find your Grandmother, let her find you a better one." Xi Jiu Er lowered her head again and instructed Ge La, "Go and take the inventory list of the storage room, you know what to do."


    Ge La nodded. "Yes." After saying that, she brushed past Old Madame, but was pulled back by Old Madame. A pair of turbid eyes stared fixedly at Xi Jiu Er, "Little Young Master, this matter shouldn''t be decided by you, let alone Madame Song."


    She had a vague feeling that something was wrong. The youth in front of her showed all sorts of unbridled signs. He seemed to have the final say in this marriage! Her heart started to jump erratically. She looked at Zhang Cui Lan''s desperate eyes again and again and said to herself, "I won''t ¡­" "I won''t..."


    "Old Lady Zhang, you are mistaken, this marriage has always been handled by the little Young Master, he is just taking a walk there." Ge La got rid of Old Lady Zhang''s hand, and while Old Lady Zhang was still in shock, she suddenly flung him off and rubbed her wrist as she coldly snorted.


    Of course, before leaving, he didn''t forget to add fuel to the fire: "Miss Zhang, what a pity ¡­" As for the pity that she did not say anything, Zhang Cui Lan understood. It was a pity that this marriage had been destroyed by the Old Lady Zhang.


    "I hate you!" After Zhang Cui Lan finished speaking, he rushed over and squatted in front of Xi Jiu Er with a pitiful expression: "Big brother, my good big brother, you can''t do this ¡­ I am your sister! "


    Look! You really think of me as your little sister? Zhang Cui Lan and Old Lady Zhang had been together for so long, their personalities were extremely similar.


    "Why can''t I do that? Do you think I will endure your Grandmother''s words? I asked you before, are you going to marry that Second Young Master Cao? You agreed to it yourself! Now that your Grandmother has slandered me, I am not the Buddha of the temple, I will not be angry. " Xi Jiu Er asked Zhang Cui Lan.


    Zhang Cui Lan didn''t know what to say, and continued to cry: "It''s Grandmother''s fault, brother, don''t take it to heart. Grandmother is old, it''s hard to avoid her temper ¡­."


    "Alright!" Xi Jiu Er shouted: "I am not the one who caused her fault. Let her find you another marriage."


    Seeing Xi Jiu Er angered, Zhang Cui Lan bit his lower lip until it was bleeding. Old Lady Zhang wished that she could cut her corpse into ten thousand pieces. What made her even angrier was that she could only stand there and say some useless words. She felt pained and angry at the same time. Now that the marriage had been annulled, she no longer had to live anymore.

 C316

    Liu Shui returned as quickly as he could, and when he returned, he was holding Zhang Cui Lan''s Heptagram in his hand as well as his own words: "Young Master Cao said that I understand, but as for the betrothal gifts, I don''t want them anymore. I just want to use them as a congratulatory gift for Little Young Master, at that time, Little Young Master will be forgiven for his wedding." Looking at Zhang Cui Lan who was still distracted, she giggled: "At that time Second Young Master Cao was also saying, after knowing, he was so happy that it seemed like it, and he was dancing in joy."


    Xi Jiu Er heard that Cao Nan gave him the betrothal gift? Was this an indirect gesture of goodwill? She muttered to herself, "Give the Seventhstone to Old Lady Zhang, and at last, she''s pregnant and won''t be disturbed. I''ll personally go speak with her then."


    "Yes." Liu Shui replied, then turned his face and smiled as he handed the Heptune over to Old Lady Zhang: "Old Lady Zhang, look, this is the Heptune''s invitation, you better keep it well." This last sentence was purposefully used by Liu Shui, so anyone who heard it would be able to hear the schadenfreude within.


    The Old Lady Zhang snorted coldly, a little disbelieving that Xi Jiu Er could force the marriage off by herself. Then, looking at maid''s face, she felt endless hatred. If it was before, she would have already slapped his face to teach this servant a lesson.


    Old Lady Zhang opened it, and saw that it was indeed Zhang Cui Lan''s heptagram, and also the seal of the Madame Song ¡ª ¡ª This was the real heptagram. Only now did she panic, and bared her teeth as she glared at Song Tian: Song Tian, you''re truly unable to do anything, and actually broke the engagement without my permission?


    "Enough!" Zhang Cui Lan shouted. A pair of eyes shot over with a coldness that Old Madame had never seen before, as if she was looking at a dead man. "Grandmother, you go back first." No one knew how much effort she had expended just to say those words. They really wanted to slap this shitty old woman in front of them.


    Old Lady Zhang''s heart trembled. The girl in front of him was too unfamiliar ¡­ You want her to go? She could not leave, no matter what, Song Tian had to give her an explanation. He had to make up for the marriage with the speed of that servant girl, it should only be a matter of fifteen minutes. She was an elder, so she couldn''t possibly lower herself to ask for it. Grasping her neck tightly, she said unnaturally, "I''m not going back. If Song Tian doesn''t give me an explanation for this matter, I won''t go back even if I die."


    "Grandmother." Zhang Cui Lan suddenly turned her head and looked over with a venomous glare, her eyes full of warning. This gaze made Old Lady Zhang exceptionally afraid. She immediately pointed at Zhang Cui Lan''s nose and cursed: "You, you ungrateful bastard, just who am I doing this for? Isn''t it because of you? You are actually staring at me, why are you staring at me? "


    Zhang Cui Lan slowly turned her head with an indifferent face, allowing the Old Lady Zhang to scold him. Xi Jiu Er smirked. Did the Old Lady Zhang not see that? Zhang Cui Lan already had the intention to kill! She was most likely dead ¡­


    "Ge La, Liu Shui!" Xi Jiu Er''s voice rose slightly: "Throw them out, if you dare move out of the Song Family without a plan, our Song Family will not dare to receive an esteemed guest like Old Lady Zhang!"


    "What''s wrong with me?" Zhang Madame''s old face was flushed red from shame. He looked at Zhang Cui Lan, who had finally thought of a way out, and used the kernels to cover her face as she cried: "Oh my god, how can I live so bitterly ~ ~ ~ I''m going to die from anger ~"


    It was hard for Zhang Cui Lan to say anything as if she had just eaten a piece of Huang Lian. She looked at Xi Jiu Er who was resting with her eyes closed and pleaded, "Big Brother ¡­ "I''m begging you ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er seemed to have entered a meditative state, her expression unmoved. Zhang Cui Lan gritted her teeth and waited for a long time, but there was no response, so she tactfully retreated. She planned to start from the Madame Song''s side.


    "mother is not well, don''t disturb her." Xi Jiu Er did not open her eyes as if she had already guessed what Zhang Cui Lan was planning to do. Zhang Cui Lan''s face stiffened, and left resentfully.


    "This Old Lady Zhang is really greedy." Liu Shui smacked his lips: "This Zhang Cui Lan also seems to be a heartless woman ¡­ "Tsk tsk tsk tsk ¡­"


    "Tell me, why is it that both Cao Nan and Cao Nan were born from the same family, and why is the difference between them so huge?" Xi Jiu Er then asked out the question that had been on her mind all along, "Cao Nan and Cao Qing are basically incomparable, so why does Prime Minister Cao not like him at all? Instead, you have already doted on Cao Qing to such an extent? "


    "Who knows? Maybe this Cao Nan was not even birthed by his father, it was his mother that gave him the green hat! " Liu Shui took a bite of dim sum and laughed.


    Oh? Just like Xi Wan Rong? Xi Jiu Er frowned, he had an idea. When they were about to rest, news came from the palace, the Emperor was assassinated, the target of the attack was Feng Qing Cheng! All of a sudden, Feng Qing Cheng stood at the tip of the wave...


    Just tell her that he might not have done it. However ¡ª She had arrived, and her face was still as beautiful as ever. Xi Jiu Er propped herself up and looked at him, thinking about the face beneath the mask, she said silently: There''s something I need to tell you.


    Ge La lowered her head and did her own thing. Feng Qing Cheng had been wearing the imperial court uniform when she came, but this was the first time she had tidied up the imperial uniform. This imperial robe was not an ordinary robe. The workmanship was exquisite and complicated.


    "You may leave." Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently.


    "Yes." Ge La lowered her head and walked out. Feng Qing Cheng glanced at her, then retracted his gaze and laughed: "If Jiu Er doesn''t feel tired, then how about you untie your husband?"


    Xi Jiu Er said expressionlessly: "I''m very tired."


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed at himself for taking off his clothes, and in a short while, he was left with only his pants. The skin on his upper body was white, and the plum blossoms on his body were blooming. It was as if he could smell the fragrance of the plum blossoms blowing towards him. Ink Splashing''s long hair fell onto his chest... The man in front of her was very alluring!


    "You want to ask me about the assassin?" Feng Qing Cheng crawled into bed, and couldn''t help but touch her jade-like, yet ice-cold face, thinking that her skin was simply so good that there was nothing to say.


    "No!" Xi Jiu Er turned his face around, wanting to avoid her hands. Her rough fingers pricked against his face painfully, the unique scent on his body had already changed. There was no trace of the medicinal smell at all.


    "¡­" Feng Qing Cheng pointed and laughed faintly: "I did indeed do this assassination!" Seeing the surprise flash across the man''s eyes, he smiled with interest. "Are you surprised too?"


    "Go and check on Cao Nan''s background, Cao Nan and the Cao family always give me a strange feeling." This strange feeling was similar to how First Lady doted on Xi Mao far less.


    Her breath smelled like orchids, and the fragrance of clear lotus flowers carried a sweet scent. Her eyes sparkled like the stars in the vast sky, causing people to be captivated by her gaze. His heart had moved, and his body had also moved ¡­ How could he possibly take Xi Jiu Er''s words to heart? With an absent-minded look, he replied, "Alright, I will investigate."

 C317

    "I mean it." Xi Jiu Er was annoyed, she grabbed Feng Qing Cheng''s hand and said unhappily.


    "So you want me to investigate Cao Nan''s background? I''ve already sent someone to get started. " Feng Qing Cheng then grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s hand and took a peck. His skin was smooth and fragrant, the taste of his body must be really tempting.


    Feeling that it was as light as a feather, Xi Jiu Er retracted his hand and asked: "Why did you glance at Ge La just now?"


    "Jealous?" Feng Qing Cheng found it funny. "You already have an opinion just by looking at her?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression froze, and her mind involuntarily recalled how Feng Qing Cheng would look while hugging a harem beauty in the future. Her heart was ruthlessly poked by an invisible thorn, and it hurt so much that she took in a cold breath.


    "Ge La''s brother is dead ¡­ Right now, her country is without a leader, so I have already spread the rumours that Ge La is in Yan Du, and I think it won''t be long before they arrive. " She hugged her and said: "Tong An is dead, we didn''t catch the assassin, and today, we went to soft consort''s palace to alarm the emperor, and coincidentally broke into the secret relationship between soft consort and the eunuch."


    There was no need to ask as it was Feng Qing Cheng''s doing again. soft consort had a stable position in the Palace, she had good looks and her hands were not lacking in beauty. Feng Qing Cheng actually managed to kill her with one strike ¡­ Clearly, his strength wasn''t as simple as the outside world thought it was. No wonder he didn''t receive the news, it was likely that the emperor had sealed the news.


    Her woman was actually hanging out with a man that wasn''t a man. If word got out, he would become the laughing stock of the world. Without even asking, the outcome for soft consort would be who welcomed her. Cold Palace, or White Ribbon Wine Dagger, anything...


    soft consort... Everything happened too suddenly, and this really indicated that Feng Qing Cheng could not wait any longer. Could it be that he was doing all this for her? Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat, she looked at Feng Qing Cheng and asked: What other things do you have in your plans?


    "Jiu Er is smart." Feng Qing Cheng rewarded her with a light peck at Xi Jiu Er''s captivating red lips. Waiting for Xi Jiu Er to catch her breath before saying: "Do you know what''s the most valuable thing in Ge La''s world?"


    "What?" Xi Jiu Er had never asked Ge La about anything related to sher. Seeing that her eyes were bright, he liked her.


    "Iron!" Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes revealed excitement, without holding back, he showed himself in front of Xi Jiu Er, as he was extremely dissatisfied with his passion and determination for power, and started to yearn for it. Look, this is a man!


    Iron? Ge La had once told her why her country suffered so many calamities. It turned out to be made of iron! A secret that even she, a princess, did not know of. From this, it could be seen how secretive this secret was.


    "Jiu Er?" Feng Qing Cheng turned his head, he did not know when the people beside him had already started breathing evenly. There was a sense of satisfaction in his slightly dazed look. He felt that it was not enough by kissing her lightly on the cheek. Thus, he decided to use his big hands to feel her creamy skin.


    "Are you really tired?" Feng Qing Cheng laughed, embraced Xi Jiu Er and fell asleep with satisfaction.


    The person beside him was sleeping soundly. Xi Jiu Er slowly opened his eyes ¡­ Feng Qing Cheng quickened her pace, but she could not slow down. The next day, Xi Jiu Er was awoken by the noise coming from outside. She was unsure when Feng Qing Cheng left.


    "What happened?"


    "Little Young Master, Old Lady Zhang suffered a stroke last night. He laid on the bed and could not move. "It was only today that the servant girl discovered ¡­" Ge La found a robe for Xi Jiu Er and said: "The situation last night was very good, you suffered a stroke in just one night?" Thinking back to how Zhang Cui Lan was acting strangely last night, he felt a chill run down his spine.


    Zhang Cui Lan made her move! She didn''t kill Old Lady Zhang because she was worried that she wouldn''t be able to get married. She wasn''t young anymore! Xi Jiu Er frowned: "Send the order down, will handle this matter."


    Ge La went out to brief them before she returned. "Little Young Master, didn''t you say you were going to the Prime Minister''s Estate today? There are no more carriages today, Master is leaving in a carriage. "


    Song Yun Shan got a carriage out? This was rare. Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I got it, at most, I will just need to wait for a carriage."


    After that, Xi Jiu Er went to Madame Song and brought up the marriage with the intention of bringing it up. When Madame Song just woke up, she sat outside for a while before entering, and Madame Song had already prepared everything well. Is it cold in the middle of winter? "


    Xi Jiu Er shook her head and laughed: "mother, I''m not cold. I just wanted to tell you that the marriage between Zhang Cui Lan and Zhang Cui Lan is over." Thus, he told Madame Song everything that happened last night. The stone mother coldly snorted: "Little Young Master has retreated well. Today, this old servant will go out and hear that Old Lady Zhang has suffered a stroke. Who asked her to say something like that to the little Young Master, who asked her to.


    "Alright, stop talking early in the morning. Just listening to you makes people feel even more stifled." Madame Song growled. She hurriedly said: "I was careless."


    After accompanying Madame Song in eating breakfast, they left the residence. The gatekeeper''s face was completely red and his hands were covered in frostbite. Without waiting for Xi Jiu Er to say that, Ge La had already given them rewards, so much so that the two of them did not listen to thank him.


    The Yan Du''s winter snow was heavy. It fell in the blink of an eye, and the weather was also rather strange. Xi Jiu Er, who was as big as her palm, had a face that was cold and beautiful, but with a man''s height, she played the part of Song Tian. She was slightly short, and her entire body was wrapped in a cape.


    After walking for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Xi Jiu Er arrived at the busy city. Xi Jiu Er pulled up her cape and was about to look for a carriage when she was suddenly attracted by a bright and beautiful figure in front of him: Shui Xian? The woman beside Prince Xian was the famous Courtesan Belle.


    Wrapped in a rich peony flower bubble, her white neck was exposed, and under the maids'' care, she elegantly got into the carriage.


    "Giddy--" As the horse carriage passed by, Xi Jiu Er lowered her head and only revealed her small round chin! Looking at the carriage leaving, Xi Jiu Er squinted her eyes and turned, walking towards Prime Minister''s Estate.


    Why was Shui Xian here? Could it be a mission? What task?


    After finding a comfortable carriage, Xi Jiu Er went to the Prime Minister''s Estate, where she did not know which brothel she was staying at. The Prime Minister Cao had gone to the morning assembly, and Cao Nan was in his study reading, when he heard that Xi Jiu Er had arrived at her residence, her face slightly sunk, and he recalled the letter on her desk that night: "Jiu You Yi Xiang has relations with Song Tian!"


    "Go, take a look at what Song Tian and Lady Fragrance have done, report everything to me one by one." Cao Nan''s eyes were filled with jealousy like a husband''s, if Song Tian dared to seduce Lady Fragrance, he would definitely not forgive her, and if this woman dared to deceive him, she would definitely die.

 C318

    The stench on Xi Wan Feng''s body was already uncontrollable. This stench could only be smelled by men, it was no different for women. All the Charming Fragrance Garden s were served by women, and Xi Jiu Er heard the servants discussing about the Lady Fragrance as soon as she entered? She should be called the smelly Madame now, his body emitted an unbearable stench.


    The servant led Xi Jiu Er to the Charming Fragrance Garden respectfully, and not only did the master make use of the situation, even the servants started to curry favor with him. The soft consort could no longer stand up. With the Seventh Prince''s weak body and the young The Eighteenth Prince, the future of the Feng family wouldn''t be the Fourth Prince''s?


    The servant stood at the door as if he was trying his best to resist the stench. He covered his nose and smiled apologetically: "Little Young Master, this servant will be leaving now." Staring at Xi Jiu Er, Ge La was not in a good mood. She handed over the silver and waited for the servant to run away before she pouted and said: "Who are you, you need more silver to bring me around."


    Xi Jiu Er glanced at her. "When did you feel sorry for the silver?"


    The courtyard door was tightly shut, and Xi Wan Feng''s angry shouts could vaguely be heard. Xi Jiu Er heard that the servant was also someone who would not show weakness. She started to talk back to Xi Wan Feng, making him choke.


    Xi Jiu Er stood outside for a while, listening with relish, until the inside calmed down, then tidied up her robes and knocked on the door. Not long later, she heard a female voice ask in a bad mood, "Who is it?" When she opened the door, he saw a handsome young master dressed in cold robes, she was shocked, firstly, because he was attracted to Xi Jiu Er''s elegant and handsome appearance, and secondly, because a man had appeared here! Moreover, his face was very calm, not revealing anything at all.


    "I am Song Tian, I am here to find Lady Fragrance." Xi Jiu Er said politely, her polite smile making the servant dizzy. As a mother, every frown and smile on Xi Jiu Er''s face looked extremely peaceful, even when wearing a human skin mask, her smile looked extremely gentle and refined.


    "Who is it?" This was Xi Wan Feng''s voice, after all, it was hard to change one''s nature, and it had now returned to its usual arrogant and domineering look, just that the room was no longer as spacious as the room where it used to be. Although her dressing was still the same, but she did not have that flirtatious look anymore, it was truly three days and Xi Jiu Er almost could not recognize her. Xi Jiu Er had seen the furious her, vicious her, and calm her ¡­


    However, she had never seen such a decadent Xi Wan Feng. It was as if she had lost everything and became dispirited. When she saw the man at the door again, her dim eyes instantly lit up, and said with some disbelief: "Young Master Song, you, why did you come?"


    Hehe, I just want to come over to ask if Lady Fragrance is done reading that book, and I specially came over to retrieve it. Xi Jiu Er was unable to feign such a passionate look, and could only smile even more tenderly!


    He could have sent a servant over himself, so why did he have to come over himself? Xi Wan Feng thought about the annotations on the books from time to time, and how they had gained some insights. They were deeply ingrained in her heart, as if they were her soulmates, causing her to hate them, why had she not met them earlier. Then he suddenly thought of something and said in shock, "Young Master Song, you... Don''t you feel smelly? "


    "Today, I have the chills ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled gently, trying her best to express her concern: "Lady Fragrance, what happened to you? Why does the house say that you have a stench? "


    How could she not be embarrassed when the person she liked said that she stank? Xi Wan Feng turned her face and bit her lips, as if she was helpless, but because she had a bad temper and her body was full of evil Qi, she pretended to do it. Xi Jiu Er did not wait for her to recover. Instead, it was Xi Wan Feng who changed her expression quickly and recovered her charming look: "Aiya, look at me. How can I let little Young Master stand outside.


    In the eyes of the servants, there was no sign of their usual meekness. They only peeked at the two of them, as if they were secretly peeping at something shameful. However, they could see that the noble young man''s eyes were clear and calm, they were afraid that the Lady Fragrance wanted to climb higher.


    Xi Jiu Er followed her into the room. Who would have thought that she would be pulled hard by someone the moment she landed? It was a good thing that she was wearing a lot today. Otherwise, her bulging stomach would have been exposed. Xi Jiu Er focused on her embrace, and felt as if she had eaten a meal.


    "Lady Fragrance ¡­" Xi Jiu Er said hoarsely, she stared at Ge La without leaving a trace, and Ge La''s eyes were filled with laughter, she carried the two of them away. She felt goosebumps all over her body!


    "Don''t call me Lady Fragrance, call me Feng''er ¡­" Xi Wan Feng hugged that delicate body, and a faint incense filled her nose, captivating her entire being. Closing her eyes, she felt incomparably happy. Of course, this happiness was only temporary, she had something really important to do. "Young Master Song, save Feng''er, Feng''er can''t stay in Prime Minister''s Estate any longer ¡­"


    "How could that be?" Xi Jiu Er had a puzzled look.


    "To be honest, I was given to the Prime Minister as a chess piece. Now that the chess piece is of no use, the Prime Minister intends to sell me off. You think of a way to save me? " Xi Wan Feng revealed her most beautiful point of view. Xi Jiu Er felt that she should be ''moved''.


    "The Prime Minister actually wants to sell you?" What should he do? Even if I had the intention, I still wouldn''t be able to do it. I''ve heard that the Prime Minister does not care about the affairs of the estate. How could Xi Jiu Er not hear the light footsteps outside? Her voice was raised a little.


    "Him?" Xi Wan Feng scoffed with disdain, "You look alright, but what you do is unreliable." Back then, she was only using Cao Nan, during this period of time, Cao Nan had known that he had a stench that only allowed the servants to see him, and he never revealed himself.


    "I think Brother Cao''s way of doing things is quite reliable." He purposely raised his voice a little more to speak to the people outside, "I''ll go find Brother Cao and think of a way."


    "Don''t ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Wan Feng stared intently at Xi Jiu Er, her eyes filled with anxiety. Under Xi Jiu Er''s calm gaze, she bit her lips and asked: "Young Master Song, do you find me a loser with a broken flower?" "Crippled?" Xi Wan Feng probably never would have thought that she would use that word on him. The first talented girl who was cold and elegant in the past had actually used sex to serve men, and now she didn''t even put him in her eyes, how could she not hate him? How could he not complain?


    "What is this Lady Fragrance saying? From my point of view, Lady Fragrance is very talented, and this one admires you. " Xi Jiu Er spoke frankly, not faking it at all.


    "Really?" I''m glad you said that. " Xi Wan Feng smiled, and then said affectionately: "Then are you willing to... "I''m willing ¡­" This was the first time she took the initiative. He was so nervous that he felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat and his face was burning.


    "What would you like?" He asked in confusion, but in Xi Wan Feng''s eyes, that expression was completely different from before. The smile in his eyes was even more gentle, as if he was encouraging her, as if he was saying: Tell me, tell me!


    "Wishing... Willing to include me in... "Let me serve you ¡­" Xi Wan Feng was extremely embarrassed, her cheeks were already red enough for blood to drip out. Xi Jiu Er found it hard to believe, but she said with a doubtful tone of voice, "I saw that you and Young Master Cao are similar ¡­" She wanted to say something, but he hesitated. She knew that a friend and wife was not to be trifled with.


    Xi Wan Feng immediately became anxious and replied: "I don''t have anything with him. I''m the concubinage''s son, and I''m the Prime Minister Cao''s son. It''s never going to happen. " Seeming to put aside their relationship, she even vowed, "I swear, if I really like him, then I''ll die a horrible death."


    "This ¡­" Xi Jiu Er seemed to believe him, and then placed his hands down to listen to his words, leaving behind a empty corner. He sneered in his heart, and turned his head to say with self-confidence and affection: "Alright, I''ll believe you. When I return and bring up this matter with mother, I''ll have to ask her permission, right?"


    Xi Wan Feng asked worriedly: "Would the Madame Song disagree?"


    "I am her son. If she loves me so much, she will agree." Xi Jiu Er said confidently.


    Only then did Xi Wan Feng let out a sigh of relief, and laughed embarrassedly, thinking that he had been too careless earlier. When she went to the Song Family, with her ability and knowledge, she would definitely coax Song Tian into submission. He could not help but dream of a wonderful life in the future.


    Seeing her infatuated face, Xi Jiu Er guessed what she was thinking about ¡­ I wonder how is Cao Nan''s situation? Cao Nan was still in a rage, sweeping all the items on the shelf away. The cold and clear look in his eyes had disappeared, "Bitch, you actually lied to me."


    Ever since Prince Rong died, Cao Nan''s natural instinct had been exposed. In the past, he could pretend to be good at something big, but unfortunately, he was already a chess piece now and was played around by a woman.


    "Go and find Cao Qing for me!" Gradually calming his temper, Cao Nan became a Young Master Cao that was not filled with joy. The servants outside trembled as they reported, "Great Young Master, Young Master Song is here!"


    "Is that so?" A flash of killing intent appeared in Cao Nan''s eyes, but he quickly calmed down: "I''ll go out and see him now."


    When Cao Nan arrived, he saw that Xi Jiu Er was admiring a painting, she was looking at it casually, her hands were wearing a sleeve, the winter cotton robe could not hide her frail body. Looking at it from the side, she really did look like a woman. Cao Nan looked at her and smiled faintly, as if she had blossomed into thousands of trees and pear blossoms.


    "Brother Song ¡­" Although he was smiling, his eyes were full of malice. He didn''t know how to hate himself in his heart. Xi Jiu Er chuckled and sat down: "Previously, that servant led me to the Lady Fragrance without a word.


    "There''s actually such a thing? "How dare you, I''ll punish the manservant properly later."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed, then took out a chessboard from her bosom and handed it over to Cao Nan. She said calmly: "Today, I have been handing this chessboard to brother Cao."


    Cao Nan was overjoyed at the sight. This chess book was the one he had been longing for for for a long time, he did not expect Song Tian to find it, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Brother Song."


    "Why should we be polite?" Coughing unnaturally, he said, "I have something to inform you. I hope you can stop it."

 C319

    Cao Nan then asked: Brother Song, what important matter do you have to tell me? He couldn''t help but be more cautious, causing others to be unable to see the hostility in his eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er said with a serious expression: "Brother Cao, you and I are brothers, so I will speak frankly. A few days ago, I saw you looking at Lady Fragrance with eyes filled with love, a gentle look, and joy in my heart. You found the person you like, but have worries for the woman who has the status of Lady Fragrance. After that I thought about it, it''s rare to meet someone who knows others. Lady Fragrance told me today that it was difficult for her, she planned to sell her off. As for why I didn''t tell you about it, could it be that there was a misunderstanding? "


    Cao Nan never would have thought that Xi Jiu Er would say such words. Her expression changed and she did not know what to say, and only opened her mouth to look at Xi Jiu Er calmly, secretly thinking that the person in front of him was truly as humble as water.


    "Brother Song, to be honest, I only admire Lady Fragrance, she is the only one I have ever seen in front of women, it is a pity that there is no difference between us." Cao Nan calmed her heart, and finally made her decision to part ways with Xi Wan Feng.


    "Really?" Xi Jiu Er raised her eyebrows, and asked with an expression of disbelief.


    After abandoning Xi Wan Feng, Cao Nan''s expression suddenly became clear, and he laughed faintly: "Truthfully, she''s just a woman, the woman I want to marry is someone who will live with me forever. Not only do I have to be talented, I have to measure, the most important thing is to be obedient."


    "Brother Cao, your words ¡­" Xi Jiu Er coughed and slowly stood up: "Since Brother Cao has thought it through, I am very happy, please come to my residence another day." After sending Cao Nan off, her tranquil expression revealed a trace of an imperceptible smile. Hua Lu''s drop of water had finally pierced through the rock surface ¡­


    On the way back to the residence, Xi Jiu Er heard that a gorgeous woman from Ancient Fragrance Restaurant had arrived. Xi Jiu Er closed her eyes and returned to the horizon. A man had abandoned his clan for her, but she had used him as a stepping stone for success. Cao Nan could tell that she was sincere towards him, but Xi Wan Feng did not grasp this chance well, as his thoughts went astray in his head.


    Cao Nan''s expression was different, but Prince Rong and soft consort continued to fall, so his temper was getting worse. At this time, the woman he loved had betrayed him and fallen in love with another man, and only then did he realize that he was being played by a fool.


    From the moment the talented girl fell to this point, Xi Jiu Er could already predict her future. Returning to the Song Mansion, Song Yun Shan had already asked Zhang Cui Lan and the others to move out, the house both had children, and the Zhang family did not take it easy. Song Yun Shan gave Zhang Cui Lan two thousand silver, adding the fact that Old Lady Zhang had suffered a stroke, all of the wealth would belong to her, and she would not need to worry about food and clothes in the future. He just hoped that Zhang Cui Lan would not wholeheartedly marry someone from a famous clan, wouldn''t it be good to find an honest man to marry?


    Song Yun Shan did not care whether Zhang Cui Lan listened or not, he had said what he needed to say, and what he needed to do was up to her to decide. Ge La asked curiously: "It''s really strange, she is willing to leave?"


    "If we don''t leave now, all of Old Lady Zhang''s wealth will be divided among the clan members." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently.


    Ge La nodded her head: "Old Lady Zhang is so stingy, she must have saved up a lot of money."


    Xi Jiu Er also agreed with this point of view. One of the reasons that Zhang Cui Lan wanted to cause a stroke in Old Lady Zhang was because she wanted to see her property. Since she had to be filial for such a big trouble, she had to at least get some benefits, right?


    Feng Qing Cheng arrived a quarter of an hour after she returned to her residence. His entire body was filled with an indescribable noble aura and his face was expressionless and cold. When he looked at Xi Jiu Er again, a tender emotion flashed past his eyes: "Young Master Song, I have something to talk to you about."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, then bid farewell to Madame Song, and followed Feng Qing Cheng to an inn. Not long later, Feng Qing Cheng brought a person over. It had been cleaned up and was dressed in an ordinary robe. His hair was simply combed back to reveal his delicate and pretty face! There were many large and small scars on his face. There were scratches, marks from his blows, and old wounds from a long time ago ¡­


    Ge La looked at Xi Jiu Er in shock, no, she was looking at him.


    Xi Jiu Er said slowly: "I didn''t expect you to still be alive." She tore off the mask bit by bit, revealing skin that was tender and creamy. Her skin was pure white like jade with a hint of rouge, and her appearance was pretty. Her bright red lips had a captivating brush on her fair face.


    "Hmph ¡­" The real Song Tian snorted, and glared at Xi Jiu Er as if she was a thief who was plundering everything, as though she was the executioner who was trying to strangle his life: "Why do you want to play me, what is your goal?"


    Even a fool would be able to tell that Feng Qing Cheng was not an ordinary Young Master, and the guards he brought with him were not people that an ordinary person could order around. He had heard that the Fourth Prince was exceptionally beautiful, most likely because of this person. Looking at the girl pretending to be him, they must have some sort of scheme going on.


    Xi Jiu Er ignored Song Tian, and only asked: "How did you find him?"


    "I accidentally discovered that he fell off a cliff and fell back. He also lost his memory, and when he encountered the farmer, he saved him. He betrothed his daughter to him while he was in the midst of a loss of memories, and her daughter was a madman, sometimes good, sometimes bad. Just like that, more than a year had passed. The woman became pregnant, and because of the illness, not a single adult or child was able to survive. Later on, he and the farmer would depend on each other for survival, and his mind would slowly become more flexible, and he would sometimes be able to recall the events from before. The farmer was old and died after losing his daughter. He came here alone and was discovered by me the moment he entered the city. " Feng Qing Cheng shot a glance at Song Tian: "I had originally wanted to look for Song Yun Shan, but who would have thought that when he wasn''t here, I would find you."


    "You were looking for my father?" Song Tian was surprised.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded his head, "Your father knew that I was the fake one, and it was also your father who asked me to impersonate his son."


    Song Tian never thought that his father would actually do such a thing. It was as if a blade had fiercely stabbed into his chest, the pain making his entire body tremble. Glancing at Xi Jiu Er, the one who wore the human skin mask, ''Song Tian'', could tell that he had done better than his with just one look. Grief and grief filled his heart, and he couldn''t help but feel pain.


    Xi Jiu Er knew what he was thinking and said: "Enough, enough, stop crying! Your father only did this because your mother lost you. That was also the only way she could think of. It''s not that I don''t care about your son anymore, I''ve forgotten. " Seeing Song Tian stop crying, she stared fixedly at Xi Jiu Er, as though she was trying to differentiate between the truth and the falsehood in her words.


    "Why would I lie to you? If there really is a conspiracy, wouldn''t it be easier to silence you? " After standing for a while, feeling tired, Feng Qing Cheng brought her a stool before she could move.


    When Song Tian thought about this, he also agreed with his logic and wiped his tears embarrassedly. Xi Jiu Er laughed: "You have taken it for granted that you are back here, after all, paper cannot contain the fire, when the Master Song returns, you all can discuss how to act properly."


    Song Tian said with incomparable sincerity: "Thank you for being filial in front of my parents. In the past, I did not know my place and acted rashly, but now that I think about it, I really deserve to die." The woman in front of him had a gentle look in her eyes. She knew that she was a very good person and wouldn''t do anything that would harm others and not herself.


    "It''s good that you know. Master Song felt a sense of guilt in his heart. Back then, he had neglected to discipline you, and after that, even he was guilty of not stopping you in time, which resulted in this situation where heaven and earth are separated forever. "


    "Father ¡­" Song Tian felt extremely guilty, but he was still in pain: "It''s all because of your son''s unfilial deed ¡­"


    "Alright, stop crying. repent in front of your father later." Feng Qing Cheng bellowed, an invisible imposing manner forced its way over, causing Song Tian to stop his mouth and not dare to cry anymore. Seeing his useless appearance, Feng Qing Cheng despised him in his heart, and turned his head to say: "There''s a very delicious dish in this inn. Let''s go, I''ll bring you to eat it."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, she had already seen Song Yun Shan who was climbing up the stairs ¡­


    "Young Master, you''re looking for me?" Song Yun Shan met Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er at the corridor, and Feng Qing Cheng smiled: "I have a big present for Master Song."


    "Hmm? What big gift? " Song Yun Shan was confused.


    "You''ll know when you see it!" Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently. When the two of them went downstairs, they heard the sound of someone crying upstairs. Feng Qing Cheng asked softly: "What are you planning to do?"


    "I need a few more days of my identity." Xi Jiu Er calculated in her heart as she ate the chicken. Looking at Feng Qing Cheng who was busy picking up the dishes for himself, he frowned: "What are you doing? I can''t eat that much."


    "Look at you, you''re as thin as a paper man, hurry up and eat!" Feng Qing Cheng did not allow Xi Jiu Er to continue, and even personally fed it to her. Xi Jiu Er was greatly embarrassed, and immediately lowered his head: "I''ll eat it myself, you don''t need to worry about it." These two men ¡­ She didn''t look at the gazes around him.


    Of course ¡ª ¡ª Feng Qing Cheng gave everyone a glance as he lowered their heads to eat. They did not see anything, nor did they see anything. Xi Jiu Er was speechless, when she got to Feng Qing Cheng''s point, she couldn''t walk anymore ¡­ He said fiercely, "Are you so worried that I''ll starve him?"


    He was referring to the child in his womb.


    Feng Qing Cheng helped her up and changed the topic. "Song Tian''s leg is crippled, only one leg can walk, let''s see if it can be treated!"


    "I have some herbs. If you want them, I can give them to you." Xi Jiu Er felt that she was about to vomit. She burped and glared at Feng Qing Cheng angrily. It was all his fault, she had to eat so much all because of him, how could she be so detestable!


    "Where did you get all these herbs from, and I haven''t seen you growing them. Back then, when you were driven to the countryside by the Xi Mansion, the herb garden was already abandoned, where did you grow them from?" "And that water, I heard Ru Yan say ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng did not finish speaking before he swung his hand, causing him to be stunned.


    "Ru Yan, your relationship is very good right?" Xi Jiu Er stared with a face filled with jealousy: "Did something happen between you two that shouldn''t have happened? "Speak!"


    Feng Qing Cheng thought that it was extremely funny, and he laughed out loud, "Jiu Er, why is your way of avoiding the topic ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er knew that she did not want to answer Feng Qing Cheng''s questions, but when she said those words, she could not help but think of the bad scenes of Feng Qing Cheng and Meng Ru Yan. If ¡ª Feng Qing Cheng had also done those things to others for her, her heart would be extremely uncomfortable.


    "Jiu Er, you, what''s wrong?" Feng Qing Cheng looked at Xi Jiu Er''s smiling face which changed instantly, as though she was in pain, and was immediately at a loss of what to do.

 C320

    "Go away, I don''t want to talk to you, I don''t want to see you." Xi Jiu Er kept stroking the rose flowers on her chest as she recalled the pain from the tattoo. But that couldn''t do it, Feng Qing Cheng and Meng Ru Yan had to appear in her mind from start to finish, no matter how hard she tried. This feeling was very uncomfortable. If it was any other time, she would definitely be able to suppress it. But now, she couldn''t. It was too uncomfortable, too unbearable!


    "Jiu Er... What''s the matter with you, but what''s wrong with you? " Feng Qing Cheng was panicking, the usually stable girl looked as if she had met with some kind of sadness. She rubbed her chest and tried her best to suppress something, pain, despair, escape ¡­ This kind of Xi Jiu Er seemed to be about to leave him at any moment. She suddenly panicked and grabbed onto the lotus arm that could be broken at any time and said: "Jiu Er, you, where are you going?"


    Xi Jiu Er flung her hands away in disgust, and her hands that were as white as jade stiffened in midair. Anyone could look at him in such a manner, except Xi Jiu Er, whose heart was suddenly grabbed tightly by a large hand. He asked patiently: "What''s wrong?"


    Ge La was a woman, so after seeing Xi Jiu Er caressing the rose, he vaguely understood what was going on, hence she held Xi Jiu Er''s hand and walked him out of the inn. Xi Jiu Er seemed to want to escape far away from Feng Qing Cheng. ShShereplied without turning her head, "You don''t need to care." It seemed like she was suffocating. Her body stopped, and her arms were once again grabbed by Feng Qing Cheng. He shouted in her heart: "What the hell do you want?"


    The jade-masked man''s face darkened as if he was trying to control his temper. He said stiffly: "Jiu Er, don''t be impatient."


    It was unknown why Xi Jiu Er felt like crying when she heard that, but there was a feeling of suffocation in her throat. She was a woman, how could a woman not have a temper? Saying that thinking about him and loving him was all bullshit. Xi Jiu Er spat, was she still counting on Feng Qing Cheng to coax him at a time like this? Pfft, didn''t you hear what he said about her temper?


    He sneered, "If I am willing, what can you do to me?" Ignoring the pain in his arm as Feng Qing Cheng''s fingers peeled off bit by bit, the four of them looked at each other and saw pain in the other''s eyes. As his fingers peeled off, his palm-sized face slowly turned cold. This was the coldness that came from the bottom of his heart.


    Feng Qing Cheng took a deep breath, and didn''t know what was going on with the perfectly fine Xi Jiu Er. But previously, they were talking about him and Meng Ru Yan? She knew full well that it was impossible between him and Meng Ru Yan! But the coldness in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes made him afraid, she was like a duckweed, her eyes were very calm, there had never been too many things, even if there was, she would hide them deep in her heart, and would not easily attract attention.


    Thus, her eyes were extremely beautiful, causing one to be unable to forget their eyes and be unable to extricate themselves from them. At this moment, her eyes were filled with determination. What was going on?


    "Jiu Er..." He wanted to save her, he believed that there were too many ways to keep Xi Jiu Er here, children were the key to two different relationships, blood was thicker than water, even if Xi Jiu Er escaped, he could use this as an excuse to get close to her.


    The sound of ''Jiu Er'' seemed to contain thousands of words, and was filled with a sorrowful yearning. Xi Jiu Er turned around and touched Rose Flower. This man was like this, once he becomes the ruler of a nation, what would he be able to do? What hope could he have? Looking at those girls who even wanted to climb up to become concubinage s, they felt it would be better to marry a commoner and become a proper wife. Although their lives were tough, they were still happy.


    Buddha said that life had eight tribulations. When a person lived, they had to experience eight tribulations before entering the cycle of reincarnation. His figure moved and lifted the curtain before him to board the carriage. Feng Qing Cheng stared at the carriage for a long time ¡­ It was said that a woman''s heart was a needle at the bottom of the sea. Indeed, it was true. As a woman, she could naturally guess what was going on.


    "Little Young Master? If you want to cry, cry, or it won''t be good for children. " Ge La said softly. As an outsider who was also a woman, she had already seen that her master liked the Fourth Prince. This kind of love was too depressing, and she had too little sense of security. The fourth prince was sometimes considerate, sometimes concerned with preparation, and sometimes indifferent. Based on the situation earlier, he would apologize no matter what. Women had to be coaxed.


    Sigh, the other party is the Fourth Prince, and will also become a future zodiac. In a short time, there will be three thousand beauties in the harem! Her master was not worried about money. With money, why couldn''t she buy it? Wasn''t it just a matter of feeling? Unfortunately, the fourth prince might not be able to give them a lifetime. It was probably because his master had his eyes on this that he didn''t know what to do.


    "Cry? Why should I cry? " Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath, and let out a neither light nor heavy snort, as if she was saying to herself, or saying to Ge La, "Ge La, you''re just a man. If I want to marry, I have to marry a man who only has me, or I won''t."


    "But- But little Young Master, didn''t you say that you were pregnant? This child can''t possibly not have a father. " Ge La hesitated, "A child without parents is very pitiful."


    Yes, she had lacked motherly love and fatherly love since she was young, and she knew the taste of it. Her own child''s heart ached at the thought of giving up her father or mother. She would not let her child lose both parents.


    "I''ll find him a father then." Xi Jiu Er was unimpressed: "Who knows who his father is right after the birth of the child?"


    Ge La was stupefied, and thought that his master was indeed not someone an ordinary person could compare to. The royal bloodline could be casually recognized, could it? Could it be that a king''s land, based on his master''s tone, would just randomly find a father for his child? How could the fourth prince agree to this? He was an illegitimate child, so he definitely wouldn''t allow his own son to be an illegitimate child. Sigh ¡­ It was unknown what trouble the two of them were going to cause.


    Liu Shui observed Xi Wan Feng''s every move, and described Xi Wan Feng being beaten up so fiercely that he could dance and dance, getting beaten up by Cao Nan who was waiting for an opportunity. The reason why Cao Qing had always peeked at Xi Wan Feng and not made a move was because of Cao Nan. Now that Cao Nan was disgusted by him, how could he let go of this opportunity? He needed to find the right opportunity to take out the medicine that was made by finding a doctor. This medicine could cause a person to lose their sense of smell in a short period of time after being smeared with the medicine.


    "Everyone says Cao Qing is stupid, I think he is very smart." Liu Shui laughed and said: "They have already discussed this properly, we will buy them tomorrow night. Little Young Master, how about we rob them for you tonight."


    "No need, let''s let Xi Wan Feng suffer first." When Xi Wan Feng was feeling desperate, she would make her move, and now was not the time.


    Liu Shui nodded: "That''s right, we should make her suffer properly."


    Charming Fragrance Garden, Xi Wan Feng was waiting for his fate. Want to escape? With the exception of one exception, it was impossible to escape from this kind of situation. Cao Nan, none of these beasts are good!

 C321

    He took in a cold breath, his entire body was covered in bruises, all of these were given to him by Cao Nan. And somewhere, it was all caused by that perverted Cao Qing guy. In the real six hours, she was completely unrecognizable from the torture these brothers gave her.


    She swore to herself that if she, Xi Wan Feng, ever recovered, she would definitely dismember this pair of brothers into a thousand pieces. The pain he had experienced caused them to repay him back a hundredfold. The brothers were tortured in their minds for a while before they crawled back up.


    After being cleaned up and dressed up in an alluring manner, his legs trembled so much that he looked like he was about to kneel down. Finally, he moved to the dressing table and stared at himself in the bronze mirror. Heavens, why was her life so bitter? She just wanted to live a good life, so why wouldn''t she allow it? Why didn''t God allow it?


    "Bang!" The door was kicked open and a middle-aged woman came in. She was dressed in thick white powder and thick makeup. Upon entering, he looked at Xi Wan Feng with a strange ''Ah'' sound: "She has a temper. I like her mother."


    This Lady Fragrance, how come she had never heard of her name before? This was the Prime Minister''s beloved concubine, a darling. Look at that face, that figure, it really made her repeatedly cheer. Look at those eyes, I like them! That''s right, it''s a man. How can a docile woman have any sense of accomplishment after seeing too many of them?


    "Someone, come ¡­" "Take them away." Mother called out, she did not understand why Xi Wan Feng suddenly laughed, and was in a strange panic! As for why Xi Wan Feng laughed, this old lady definitely did not know that he was poisoned. The man only felt a terrible stench from his body, but Cao Qing wanted to sell him off, did he not consider this point?


    "Mom." They were two tall, dark, and muscular women. Xi Wan Feng laughed at himself, this Cao Qing had too many unorthodox methods, since he planned to sell himself, he must have done something about it.


    "Mom, you have to think carefully before buying me." Xi Wan Feng gave a seductive smile and made a seductive pose, "Do you know why the Prime Minister abandoned me? That''s because men smell something stinky when they smell the smell of my body. Get people to keep their distance! "


    old mother was skeptical, was this not her plan to delay the war? It didn''t seem like it either, since she was a woman, could it be that she wanted to fight against the Prime Minister''s Estate? She had spent a huge sum of money to buy the Lady Fragrance, if she tumbled on it, she would be done for.


    "Really?" Get a few servants over here! " After mother finished speaking, Xi Wan Feng sneered and said disdainfully: "Does mother think that this Prime Minister''s Estate does not have a foolproof plan for me?"


    This time, her mother was in a difficult situation. It was impossible for her to advance or retreat. An old woman came over and said, "Mom, I saw that she was just delaying the battle. Everyone knows that the Prime Minister likes new and hates old things, and when he saw that Flower Madame just now, he was even better. When he saw that she liked her, he naturally forgot about the old people."


    "It''s not like we''ve done business with the Second Young Master Cao twice. The scars on her body must be from fooling around with men. Since he''s messing around with men, his words must be fake. He must be lying to us." Another mother said.


    They had all secretly received benefits from Cao Qing, and were thinking of ways to get this deal settled. He didn''t know the reason, but now that he thought about it, could it really be that men stink when they smell it?


    His mother thought this made sense, so she believed him and ordered the two old women to take him away. He always felt a little uneasy after meeting Xi Wan Feng''s faint smile. Other than the maidservants and attendants, old mother did not see anything wrong with the man. Only then did he feel relieved, thinking that he had lied to him.


    Xi Wan Feng saw that the servant''s expression did not change, it must be Cao Qing playing some tricks on him! Desperate...


    Inside the temporary inn of the Prince Xian, Prince Xian stood with his hands behind his back as he stared at the distant scenery and asked: "What''s wrong with that woman?"


    The servant said respectfully, "Nothing strange. It''s very quiet."


    "Has there been any news from Shui Xian?"


    "He''s here. He said that the Lady Fragrance in the Prime Minister Cao Palace is undoubtedly Xi Wan Feng."


    With a tremble of his heart, Xi Wan Feng actually became the concubinage of the Prime Minister of the Wind Nation. Narrowing his eyes, the servant in red drew a beautiful curve in the wind. Noticing that his mood seemed to be a little better, his heart also sank.


    "Your Highness, the Miss is here." The servant outside reported. Prince Xian who was in a daze looked at the door coldly. What a similar face, how much did he pretend to look like it! At the door, a girl wearing a long green skirt stood there. Her figure was delicate like a fragile woman that could be blown by a gust of wind, and she looked very simple and elegant. However, compared to that person, it was not a big difference. Without the nobility, she looked just like those maidservants.


    The former Ran Er, the current Jiu Er ¡­ The rest of her life had been spent almost entirely by a single woman. As soon as he touched that pair of charming peach blossom eyes, her body shrunk, and her fear of Qin Lie increased. At first, he could tell that the Prince Xian was cherishing him as if she was a treasure.


    But then, every day, his attitude completely changed!


    "Come here." Where was the gentleness of the past? After struggling for a while, she still walked over obediently. Her chin was lifted up as she stared at the man before her, while her heart was beating crazily. He forced himself to calm down and reveal the most submissive and docile smile he could think of.


    "Do you know? I was never a prince in front of her, and I was rarely gentle. But I just happen to like her. Her true nature won''t get close to me just because of her identity. " Sensing that his subordinates were extremely stiff, his snow-white face slowly cracked open, and his smile became colder and colder.


    "How are you like, meek like a rabbit ¡­" No fun at all. You and her are like clouds and mud; you can''t even compare to a single finger of hers. " Prince Xian''s lips spouted words that she was deeply afraid of and her body involuntarily trembled. She fiercely shook her head. "Prince, I, I don''t know what you''re talking about."


    "I don''t know. Of course you don''t know anything. You''re wasting my medicine." Prince Xian gave her the medicine that Xi Wan Feng had given her before, and he changed the medicine again after looking for a doctor. He knew that Xi Jiu Er was a fickle person, so he didn''t ask for the antidote! No solution.


    He had only made two, one for the imposter and the other one for him!


    "Prince ¡­" Her cold eyes were so merciless that it was suffocating, and her delicate body seemed to be unable to withstand his heartlessness. She hugged him as she cried, "Prince, I don''t know what you''re talking about, but I know that you have someone in your heart, so I don''t mind. As long as you can think of me and look at me, I''ll be fine."


    This hug was what he had once longed for. Once he found Xi Wan Feng, he would not believe that he could not find Xi Jiu Er along the vines and vines! Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er, this time, if I find you, even if I have to tie you up, I have to tie you up and bring you back home. Do you know how much he paid for you?

 C322

    Her body was pushed away in disgust and her heart was broken. She looked at the man who once protected her tenderly and asked in disbelief, "My lord, did I do something wrong? Should I? "


    Prince Xian had never seen such a beautiful girl like his before. He had imagined countless times just what Xi Jiu Er would look like under her body. She was crying, she was smiling, he was acting so coquettishly ¡­ But how about this? However, this woman was truly heartless. He had promised her a pair of men, but she actually ran away! Unforgivable.


    "Bring Miss down." Prince Xian shouted, and left with big strides, leaving behind his cold and detached back.


    At this moment, they were staying in a small town. There were no inns in this small town, only a inn. The inn was very simple and crude. Upon learning that it was an important character, he immediately brought the best over. Although it was still mediocre, it was still better than the previous one.


    There was a total of fifteen people, dressed like any other wealthy family, but they did not look like the rich family. Especially the few servants, whose footsteps were steady and powerful, with ice blades hidden at their waists, their eyes searching everywhere with vigilance.


    A woman stepped down from the carriage. Her skin was the color of wheat, and it radiated an aura of vitality. At first glance, she did not look like a beautiful woman. However, after more details, she realized that the more she looked, the more attractive she looked and the more exotic it was.


    The young woman wore a long skirt and was supported by the maid''s arm as she walked in an uncomfortable manner. From time to time, she would tug at the hem of her skirt and grumble something. She was dressed in a long, gray-green dress and a simple cloak. Her footsteps seemed to be filled with the force of the wind. If it wasn''t for the long skirt blocking her way, she probably would have left already.


    The maidservant by his side was rather elegant and refined, with the features of a southern woman. Only his nose was high and straight, and he was dressed like an ordinary maidservant. His walk was much prettier than the maidservant''s.


    When they arrived, they happened to be having a meal on the first floor. What kind of person had the boss of this inn not seen before? All sorts of people passed by and immediately guessed the identity of these people: Hulk, the Savage Land.


    Hulk is a small country, but its citizens are very united. If you do not have any reason to hurt them, people who are not close to you can stake their lives and fight to the death with you! There were many people who wanted them, but they never dared to compete with a madman. Because the people of Hulk were all madmen!


    "Boss, serve all of us wine and meat." The leader threw a silver ingot right in front of the boss and spoke in Chinese.


    The owner immediately took up the silver and instructed the waiter to go get the meat and wine. The waiter ran into the inner hall like a wisp of smoke and shouted: "Okay!" The fifteen of them sat down one by one. Only a few tables were filled. The woman angrily threw away her dress and sat down on a chair, as if she was angry. The maid tidied up her dress and whispered a few words into her ear. Only then did her complexion improve.


    Prince Xian put on his fiery red cape and walked down the stairs gracefully and steadily. Ignore everyone on the first floor... The woman looked up and saw a beautiful woman in a red dress. She thought it was a woman. A closer look revealed that it was a man. His appearance was truly superb. Especially those eyes, the phoenix eyes were extremely beautiful, extremely beautiful.


    Outside of the station grew a large area of wild balsam. Compared to the meticulously planted balsam, it naturally didn''t teach outsiders how to look at it. However, the unique plum fragrance was different, its fragrance was not inferior in any way.


    Prince Xian stood under La Mei, her lonely figure and her lonely figure formed a scene that complemented each other. He was so beautiful that it would be hard for people to forget her beauty, and it was deeply engraved in their hearts. The woman stood on the steps of the relay station, looking at the man in the distance and feeling his loneliness and longing. He silently wondered which family''s girl would be able to obtain his favor.


    "Princess." The servant girl by her side used the voice of the Hulk and asked: "Have you taken a fancy to him?"


    "Mm, it''s a pity that he isn''t an ordinary person. Otherwise, I would have long since kidnapped him." The Hulk Princess nodded her head. She had already guessed in her heart that there was no other man in the world who loved only the red and exceptionally beautiful.


    "Is that so? "Then who is he?"


    "Prince Xian ¡ª Mu Qiu Shui." The Hulk frowned, thinking to herself, didn''t Prince Xian say that her legs were injured? Will it be all right? After that, she revealed a look of joy. The servant knew why she was so happy, not because she saw the Prince Xian here, but because the Prince Xian was here! He was not in the capital!


    "Starting today, call me the name of the Middle Kingdom. Hmm, let''s call me Li Guo Er." She rolled her eyes and looked deeply at Mu Qiu Shui, who had turned around and whispered something to the man who had given her the silver. The man nodded respectfully and said a few words.


    The waiter''s meat and wine were served quickly. Soon, the tables were set up in a neat and proper manner. They were not used to eating Chinese food so they did not order. The waiter worked hard on the meat and wine.


    Li Guo Er noticed that there was a beautiful woman standing on the second floor, staring at the fiery-red figure of the figure standing outside, seemingly intoxicated by it. It was as if she had poured all of her feelings into him. It was as if she couldn''t tolerate a second man in her world. Unfortunately ¡ª Based on Li Guo Er''s woman''s intuition, she knew that Mu Qiu Shui did not love her at all.


    Fifteen people came, and thirteen left Li Guo Er and the servant! After finishing her meal, Li Guo Er realized that Mu Qiu Shui had not come back yet, she wiped the grease off her mouth and stood up, then emulated the Miss s who were in the middle of learning by twisting their bodies, supporting the simple hair ornament on their heads, they carried their bodies and walked out.


    "Young master ¡­" Li Guo Er pinched his throat and charmingly called out, feeling extremely disgusted in his heart. He forced an expression that he thought was like closing a flower and making the moon, and took the small steps he had learned outside. He had to step on his skirt some time, but that was nothing to her.


    Prince Xian listened but did not move an inch.


    "Young Master, what are you thinking about?" Li Guo Er let out a light cough, and said in a somewhat louder voice, "Are you thinking about the woman you love?" After saying that, the Prince Xian moved, and turned around coldly to look at Li Guo Er, but Li Guo Er did not seem to care at all: "Look at Young Noble''s face full of love and grief. I wonder why that young lady did not choose Young Noble, who is such a handsome person?"


    "How can a normal person like you compare to her? You only know how to judge a person by his appearance! " He didn''t know why he would leave. He was stronger than those men with oily hair and rosy cheeks, and those poor Elementary Scholars who only knew sour poems. If there were so many people who wanted to marry her, how could she not be moved?


    Li Guo Er''s face froze, she chuckled and said without caring: "Indeed, I am a mortal man, so of course I can''t compare to Young Master''s lover."

 C323

    She knew that she was not a beauty in the Midland, but she was Hulk''s number one beauty. When all the men saw her, they did not fall for her, so she did not mind at all.


    Li Guo Er looked at Prince Xian''s leaving figure and laughed slyly. She turned her head to instruct the servant girl to give him a simple and easy to walk dress! The maidservant was extremely helpless, "Princess, this is already very simple. It won''t be a problem for you to take pity on me." Hmph, it was only a dress, she refused to believe that he couldn''t even handle a single skirt.


    The cold wind was getting stronger and stronger. The wind outside the small relay station sounded like someone was roaring. It started snowing soon after. He estimated that it would be covered in silver tomorrow.


    On such a cold day, Xi Wan Feng, who had lost his Prime Minister''s Estate''s soft and warm pillow, truly looked at the worried old mother. The old mother had been scammed big by Cao Qing, and now, whenever a man smelled her scent, he would immediately back away, or even vomit. old mother was so worried that a lot of his hair had fallen off. Firstly, she had been duped by Cao Qing and spent a lot of silver, and secondly, she knew that she had screwed him over, so she no longer dared to do business with the Cao family anymore, and had also lost a lot of silver. Third, she had lost a lot of money, so she could only watch and not use it.


    "What, what should we do?" The old mother blamed herself for the suffering, but what now? old mother whispered in her ear, "Mother, I have a plan."


    "Oh?" The old procuress needed someone to give her an idea. Xi Wan Feng, who was very carefree, followed her out. Xi Wan Feng suddenly had a bad premonition. He told her quite a few things about that kind of thing. Dirty, shameless, despicable and even unbelievable. But it exists where we can''t see it...


    The old woman outside the door revealed a strange smile and whispered to her mother, "Is mother in a hurry? If you can''t do business with men, you might as well do business with women! " When she said the words'' a woman''s business'', the woman''s voice became a bit heavier, and her eyes had a profound meaning to them.


    Mother immediately understood what the old woman meant. There was all kinds of people here, so there was Long Yang''s good side to it. Of course, women could also do it! However, they were not as flamboyant. They had done this kind of business before and the price was extremely high. After all, no woman was willing to do this kind of business.


    He slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my memory! Where did you forget to look?"


    "Mom almost forgot!" What the old woman said was pleasing to the eye. After this business was done, she would go home and settle for her grandson!


    Seeing her mother enter the house, Xi Wan Feng''s expression turned to one of happiness, without a trace of worry! He was both surprised and confused at the same time. He didn''t know how to degrade himself. Looking at her mother in silence, her mother laughed and said, "You! Since I had bought it and signed the death contract, you should listen to me obediently. I will naturally love you!" "If you are disobedient, don''t blame me for not showing mercy." With a trace of ruthlessness, Xi Wan Feng believed that she had plenty of ways to make herself beg for death.


    "Mom, we are all taking advantage of each other, so if you treat me well, I will naturally repay you for your kindness." Xi Wan Feng quickly made his stance clear and revealed a sincere smile.


    Mom happily smiled. "I like smart people like you. You''re not tired of talking, but you know how to talk."


    "What kind of job did Mom give me?" Xi Wan Feng calmly asked on the surface, but in reality, she was feeling apprehensive. If she couldn''t serve this man, then what else could she do? Servicing up? old mother agreed?


    "It''s like this. You can''t serve a man, but you can serve a woman right?" old mother laughed, she looked at Xi Wan Feng''s expression without leaving a trace, and sure enough, her expression immediately darkened: "You have to listen carefully, I spent a large amount of silver to buy you, and you have to earn back for me, you have to agree to this matter."


    Xi Wan Feng never thought that he would be reduced to serving a woman. His heart was gloomy, and suddenly he thought of a way: "Mother, go find Song Mansion''s Little Young Master and explain my situation to him. At that time, he will definitely redeem me back."


    "Young Master Song?" old mother was puzzled.


    "Yes, it''s the Young Master Song. He will definitely redeem me and bring me back." Xi Wan Feng recalled the scene of the two''s tender and sweet words that day and was certain that Song Tian had returned to save him. Seeing her so sure, old mother was suspicious. No matter what, he had to get the silver back before he could rest at ease.


    "Alright, I will look for Young Master Song tomorrow." old mother was a bit more polite: "You rest first." With that, she got her men to lock the door, and clanging sounds rang out as Xi Wan Feng''s figure was locked inside the house.


    "old mother, there''s someone looking for you outside." A servant came over to report, "It''s the Fourth Prince."


    old mother''s handkerchief almost fell off. Aiyo, why is the Fourth Prince here? She immediately realized that the Fourth Prince was a man. A man naturally had needs in certain areas. He felt no fear in his heart. Instead, he tidied up his appearance and turned his butt to meet the guest. He was an incredible figure, a future zodiac.


    "This old servant greets His Highness the Fourth Prince, Your Highness Jin An." old mother''s salutations were rather standard.


    Feng Qing Cheng, who was sitting behind a screen, lazily sat on a circle chair. His extravagant body covered the ground and no one dared to look at his handsome face. old mother couldn''t see his face, but with a glance, he was immediately stunned by his blurry figure. It was cold and clear, devilishly charming, with an intangible sense of oppression that made her not dare to act presumptuously.


    "The Lady Fragrance is with you, right?" The emotionless voice was extremely cold, and old mother''s entire body shivered, before she immediately replied: "Yes, I just arrived today."


    "What did you do?"


    old mother did not dare hesitate at all, and immediately said: "There was a strange stench in her body, and even men would not be able to endure it when they smell it, so this old servant let her serve women."


    Feng Qing Cheng knew that there were some women who, regardless of whether or not they had left the pavilion, had some sort of special hobby, and liked women. The good women of Long Yang definitely existed in this aspect as well. Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently. The guard beside her immediately gave her a medicine bottle.


    old mother hurriedly received it, waiting for Feng Qing Cheng''s orders. He thought to himself, could this be medicine that could turn the Lady Fragrance into a beautiful lady? The voice from behind the screen sounded again, "You don''t need to serve a woman, just let her serve a man! The uglier and dirtier the man, the better! "


    old mother was surprised, this, this... Could it be that he is Lady Fragrance''s sinner, the Fourth Prince? It must be. old mother looked at the medicine in her hand and the guard said: "Once this medicine is applied to a person, they will lose all sense of smell. They will recover completely in two hours."


    "This old servant shall obey the orders of the fourth prince." She groaned in her heart, and now all her silver was gone. He wanted to cry from the pain, so he bought some money to pay for it. Unexpectedly, the guard gave her 10,000 silver, and her eyes lit up as she almost received it.


    Fortunately, her mind wasn''t muddled, and she immediately came to her senses. "How dare this old servant ask for the Fourth Prince''s money? This old servant won''t be able to be happy for the Fourth Prince''s work."


    Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently: "You take the silver. I have something to ask you to do."


    "Yes." It was only then that the old servant received the silver taels. He was overjoyed. This was truly a turning point in his life! He bowed and said, "Please give your orders, Fourth Prince."

 C324

    The old mother received Feng Qing Cheng''s instructions and also carried ten thousand taels of silver. When she looked at Xi Wan Feng again, he became as fierce as a female Yaksha! Seeing her attitude, Xi Wan Feng immediately became alert, especially the fat beggar standing behind her, he took a deep breath and pretended to be calm: "old mother, what are you doing?"


    old mother laughed: "This matter can''t be blamed on me, who let you offend His Highness the Fourth Prince? His Highness the Fourth Prince has already instructed me to ''entertain'' you well. Say, if I don''t ''entertain'' you well and anger the future zodiac, it''s not a big deal if the business is not safe. The key is that I can''t even protect my life. "


    Xi Wan Feng''s body instantly went cold. It must be that Feng Qing Cheng knew his real identity, it must be! Otherwise, even if he was the eyes of the Prince Rong, he would not be so worried. Now that the fourth prince had spoken his words, her future was completely devoid of any light. Her entire body felt as if it had been sucked dry of air. She shriveled and shriveled as she fell on her chair. Her expression was miserable, completely devoid of any beauty.


    old mother looked at her, and saw that she seemed to have aged by ten years, a trace of pity swept through her heart, but it was quickly replaced by food, she did not care about this pitiful sympathy. The pitiful person must have something to hate. Looking at the fourth prince, he didn''t seem like a cruel and merciless person to women. There must be a reason for doing so.


    The beggar''s body reeked of stench. old mother covered her mouth and nose and nodded: "Go in and enjoy yourself. This is the concubine of the current Prime Minister.


    The beggar was around forty years old, and had been a beggar since birth. He had never experienced the taste of a woman, and now that he saw Xi Wan Feng''s snow white skin, his slim body and saliva flowed out. When old mother finished speaking, she immediately rushed in, scaring Xi Wan Feng to the point of screaming and shouting, "Ah, what are you doing, scram, you dirty man, scram ¡ª"


    Xi Wan Feng dodged nimbly, the two of them were in a deadlock at the round table, while old mother and the rest left. The heavy wooden door made a piercing sound, making people feel pain and despair.


    Xi Wan Feng almost puked when he smelled the stench, it was better to die cleanly like this. As he spoke, he pulled out the hairpin and broke it. The beggar, seeing that something was wrong, immediately rushed over and grabbed her wrist. He revealed a ferocious and evil smile: "I still haven''t enjoyed myself and you intend to die?"


    "Let me go, you filthy beggar." Xi Wan Feng screamed.


    "I''m dirty, you''re clean? "Pfft!" The beggar was used to being humiliated and had learned to endure, but the woman in front of him was no better than him. He had heard what old mother had said, offending the Fourth Prince would not end well. Swallowing his saliva, old beggar lowered his head and used a snow-white muscle to tie Xi Wan Feng up without saying a word.


    Xi Wan Feng was terrified, he bit his tongue to commit suicide. The beggar had seen through his disguise and pried her mouth open, stuffing it into the cloth he usually used to wrap mantou. After using it for a long time, the cloth had already turned dirty and smelly. Xi Wan Feng almost vomited.


    "Hehehe ¡­" "Little beauty, after tonight, even if I die, I will accept it." The beggar could not smell the stench after smearing the medicine, so he could only use his touch to feel it. In the room, a scene of a beautiful woman and a wild beast was put on.


    This old mother could be said to be biased in some aspects. She opened a brothel that was open to the public, while she opened a private brothel that could not be seen in the light of day, and her thoughts were very unique. It was just like a child''s fist-sized hidden button on the wall of the bed. The moment the hidden button was opened, the scene inside the room would be clearly visible.


    Everyone rushed to watch the scene of the Lady Fragrance, who was once famous in the Yan Du, being humiliated by the beggars. Of course, they could not just watch for nothing, they had to pay for it. And these people were extremely abnormal in their hearts. They couldn''t act humanely, and could only act in a self-satisfied manner. There were also eunuchs in the palace.


    For two hours, the beggar was planning on eating his fill at once! old mother impatiently knocked on the door before he walked out. His eyes were bright and his face was red. old mother told the beggar to get lost. If she dared to reveal the secret and immediately find someone to kill her, the beggar wouldn''t dare to offend her, so she quickly bowed and took her leave.


    old mother went in while covering her nose, only to see that Xi Wan Feng was covered with wounds, and he was completely unconscious. She had seen more intense scenes than this one. He didn''t even bother to tell the servants to clean the house and wash the people.


    "Just now, this little bastard was going to bite his tongue and commit suicide. Mommy, what do you think we should do?" The old granny took the lead and called Xi Wan Feng a ''slut'', and said worriedly: "If he dies, how will we account to the Fourth Prince?"


    "Hmph, then let''s use the old method." The old mother did not care, she had more methods to deal with this kind of people than the brothel''s Brothel Keeper. The old method was to use medicine to numb the tongue until it became stiff, but the bad thing about this method was that it kept on drooling, making people feel disgusted. Later, the old mother found a doctor, after rolling a few needles on the tongue, the tongue would shrink and become very small, just like a child''s.


    Ever since that day, Xi Wan Feng never felt that he was awake. When he was still in a daze, he felt that someone was walking around on his body, and after a while, he fell asleep again. It was already the third day after he woke up ¡­ He lowered his head to look at his bruised body, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of sadness and sadness.


    Suddenly, he realized that his tongue had shrunk. He could only speak like a child. His body went soft, and he felt abnormally weak ¡­ The door opened and she looked at old mother imploringly, but old mother turned a blind eye to the person behind her and said, "Flower, please." Looking at Hua Lu''s seductive expression, she couldn''t help but wonder when such a treasure would fall into her hands. Unfortunately, the person who came was clearly a person of the Fourth Prince.


    "Yo, look, who is this, isn''t he our famous Lady Fragrance? How did he end up in this world? "How pitiful ¡­" Hua Lu twisted his body and walked into the house, then turned his body to the side and revealed his well-groomed makeup and long skirt, showing off as if he was showing off. She gloated as she walked over and smiled, "Mom, it seems that you are a person that cherishes the fairer sex."


    old mother laughed along with him: "Madame Hua is joking, in just three days, I have already received close to a hundred guests. I think I need to have some time to recover.


    Nearly a hundred? Xi Wan Feng was instantly shocked, and once again had the thought of dying. It was a pity that his limbs were weak and weak. He had not taken a sip of water or eaten a meal when he woke up, so he was already dizzy.

 C325

    Hua Lu laughed with satisfaction: "old mother is an expert in this field, I as an amateur will not discuss about it." After pausing for a moment, she continued, "But it''s rare for me to come here. I must see for myself if this trip was not in vain."


    "Mud ¡­" Xi Wan Feng said this word out of extreme anger. He no longer had the strength, and because his tongue was unwieldy, his pronunciation of "you" was not accurate. She glared fiercely at the well-dressed woman. That bright and moving smile made her want to tear her to pieces.


    Hua Lu didn''t care what Xi Wan Feng said, it wasn''t important to her at all. He said to old mother: "old mother, I heard that this person and the CHU can also do it, is that true?"


    old mother immediately took a deep breath, thinking to herself how much the Flower Madame knew. She smiled and said, "Yes, it is possible."


    "Then can I have a look?" Hua Lu''s smile was so innocent and romantic, how could old mother not? She was Prime Minister''s Estate''s, a person whose hands were as hot as hot water, and also someone from the fourth prince''s side. She quickly said, "Sure."


    "Then the horses." Hua Lu laughed.


    Wasn''t this asking for human life? old mother smiled and instructed the old lady behind him to lead a young horse. Xi Wan Feng was so angry that he had already rolled his eyes in fear. No, don''t...


    The old mother came over and said: "Flower Madame, it is not easy to have more people here. "Come with me!" As she said that, she led Hua Lu to another room, the furnishings were exactly the same. However, the position of the bed was different. The old mother told him that she had arrived in front of a wall and opened the buckle.


    Hua Lu was overjoyed: "old mother, you are such a wonderful person."


    "Then please have a look at it, Madame Hua." old mother said her goodbyes. Through the hidden trap, she saw an old lady holding onto a small horse the size of a person, Hua Lu appreciated it with relish. Xi Wan Feng, you have harmed my entire family, I will make you want to die.


    A woman''s scream came from inside, deafening. The more Xi Wan Feng shouted, the more excited she became. If she could, she would have personally killed her. It was a pity that he couldn''t ¨C he could only occasionally come over and take revenge for his family.


    Afterwards, Hua Lu gave old mother quite a bit of revenge and said she would return it next time. old mother took some silver and told the old granny to give Xi Wan Feng a good rest.


    Song Mansion, Liu Shui described Xi Wan Feng''s recent situation. His simple and honest face was snow-white. She was still Huang Hua''s eldest daughter, and had never experienced such a thing. Ge La''s expression also changed when he heard about it. "I''ve heard about that private house before, but I never thought it would be so terrifying." Some maids would buy private rooms for those with special interests to enjoy themselves.


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression was very calm, so it was hard to tell how she was feeling. Where did Xi Wan Feng go, she had to settle this with her now ¡­ If such a weak part of a woman was taken away to be ruined, then the grudge between the two of them could be wiped out in one go.


    When Song Yun Shan returned, it was already past dinner. He was extremely happy, but Madame Song only smiled and did not say anything as he asked what had happened. After sitting for a while to look for Xi Jiu Er, he solemnly thanked her and the Fourth Prince. Xi Jiu Er helped him up and asked about Song Tian''s situation. Song Yun Shan was also optimistic: "The doctor said that I''m afraid there''s no other way, the Fourth Prince can''t say it either.


    "That''s true. Misfortunes and blessings depend on each other." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "I chatted with him for a long time. The father and son duo had all their past grudges resolved, and I just hope that he can be safe and sound in the future. He doesn''t need to do too much, and he doesn''t have the ability to do so either. If you marry a wife and have a child, you might be able to live a lifetime like this. " Song Yun Shan''s happy expression never faded. Xi Jiu Er was also infected by him, and laughed happily.


    "Master Song, I have some herbs and I understand some pharmacology, why not let me try?" Xi Jiu Er said. Song Yun Shan did not hesitate at all but agreed. Sun Kongming''s disciple and the imperial physician at the hospital said that there was nothing she could do. If it was a normal person, they would have doubted it, right?


    "Master Song, you trust me this much?" Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    Song Yun Shan coughed and said embarrassedly: "I had secretly checked on the matter of getting my wife the medicine that time, and that was not even a doctor, but just a fortune-teller. I thought you must have a motive for doing this. I haven''t seen that you''re a bad person these days after getting along with you. You''ve done something to let us down, so I decided to observe carefully. I know it''s all because of you. "


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless, this Song Yun Shan seemed to be a coarse old man, but she was indeed coarse with a few details. That''s true. Otherwise, how could she lead his men to war?


    "That''s why I believe you." Song Yun Shan laughed, her entire being became bright, and the last bit of the haze also disappeared. When he owed Song Tian a debt, he had always blamed herself before. Now that his son had returned and her wife was pregnant, it was right for him to stand by Feng Qing Cheng''s side. How could he not be happy? His life could be considered complete.


    Xi Jiu Er went to take the herbs from the spatial space and instructed Song Yun Shan to use the spring water to fry it. Song Yun Shan thanked Xi Jiu Er with all his heart.


    In these fifteen years, on the ninth day of the twelfth month, the king of Wind Nation was stabbed by an assassin. The entire Wind Nation was shaken. The meaning behind the summoning of the Lord of Wind Nation to see Feng Qing Cheng enter the palace that night was self-evident. Xi Jiu Er didn''t know why she was afraid when she heard this news, but it was clear to her when she didn''t have enough time to think about Xi Hong Sheng.


    It had nothing to do with filial piety. As Xi Jiu Er waited for news, another shocking piece of news came. After Feng Qing Cheng had entered the palace, Xi Wan Feng had been taken away!


    Xi Wan Feng was kidnapped? Who? Who is it? The first person she thought of was Cao Nan, that''s impossible! Who could it be? Liu Shui, who was standing beside him, had a face full of conflict, and had kneeled on the ground without any warning, causing Ge La to be slightly shocked. Xi Jiu Er turned around to look at Liu Shui, and calmed down: "Go on, what do you know?"


    "Little Young Master, look ¡­" Liu Shui passed the slip of paper to her. Xi Jiu Er opened it and saw the words: Xi Wan Feng is with me, if you want to know the whereabouts of your mother, you have to bring Xi Jiu Er to the Peony Pavilion. These words were written in the same style as those on the scroll, and were imitated by others.


    "Servant once said that he would not betray the little Young Master. Servant will keep his word." Liu Shui''s eyes were firm. When she followed Xi Jiu Er this time, he would treat Xi Jiu Er as his only master and would never betray him.


    Xi Jiu Er gave a gratified smile, as she said in her heart, "Liu Shui, I am very happy, very gratified that you were able to do such a thing."


    Peony Pavilion? Where is the Peony Pavilion? Xi Jiu Er did not understand, so she shook her head and said: "The Peony Pavilion is by the Mino River."


    Mino River? She knew this. There had been a monk named Minot who had died by a river that would become known as the Mino River. However, this river was not in Wind Nation.

    "Little Young Master, are you going?" Liu Shui asked.


    Xi Jiu Er thought about the look in her eyes every time she mentioned her mother. With hope and hope, she said, "Go." It could also be considered as fulfilling Liu Shui''s wish.


    Taking advantage of the moment when Feng Qing Cheng was unable to cope with the situation, Xi Jiu Er first bade farewell to Song Yun Shan. After learning that she was extremely reluctant to leave, Song Yun Shan had even planned to take her as his daughter. She also saw Xi Jiu Er passing over a package and opening it, it was filled with silver, at least seven or eight thousand. She looked at Xi Jiu Er in confusion, not understanding what she meant.


    "This is the Moon Silver that I received when I went to Song Mansion, and the rest are from Madame Song. I will return it to Master Song now and pass this to Song Tian. This was what he deserved. "


    Song Yun Shan continuously rejected his request: "No, no, I didn''t even thank you properly before leaving. I don''t even need any money, how can I go through with it?"


    "I have money, and I don''t lack it." Xi Jiu Er didn''t mind in the slightest: "Madame Song treated me like my very own flesh and blood, and made me feel an unprecedented motherly love. This kind of thing isn''t something that can be bought with silver! I don''t know when we''ll meet again, but after I have my children, I''ll come visit you guys when I''m free. "


    Song Yun Shan was shocked. "You, you are leaving for good?" She had the royal bloodline in her body, it wouldn''t be good for her to just walk away. He was a man, and he knew the importance of having a son, not to mention a royal blood.


    "I can only arrange for Master Song s." Xi Jiu Er laughed, "The current situation is unstable, let''s wait for the situation to stabilize before coming back."


    Song Yun Shan was a little doubtful, and did not believe that Xi Jiu Er''s words were true. However, he was an outsider, so she couldn''t say anything. The woman in front of him was someone who had her own opinions, so she might not listen to him. He then agreed, "Yes, come back early."


    "Yes, I will." Xi Jiu Er smiled, "I''ll go look for Madame Song and tell him that I''m going to see a friend. I''ll be back in three to five days." If you say it like that, it would also mean that they have the same breath as Song Yun Shan.


    When Xi Jiu Er came in, she heard stone mother trying to persuade him, "Madame, you should rest for a while. What do you think you should do if you hurt your eyes?"


    "It''s fine. Look at how cute the style is!" Madame Song''s laughter was very infectious, and Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but laugh out loud, "mother."


    "Tian, you''ve come. Come and let me take a look. I haven''t seen you for a long time." Madame Song waved Xi Jiu Er over, and Xi Jiu Er obediently walked over and said meekly: "mother, I have something to tell you."


    "What is it?" Madame Song asked with a smile.


    "I met a friend during my travels. Now that my friend is sick, I would like to take a look and bring him here for treatment. If it''s fast, it can be three to four days, or if it''s slow, it can be half a month. " This girl had given him a maternal love that he hadn''t felt in a long time, making him unable to extricate himself from the warmth of her life. How could she bear to leave? Madame Song''s eyes were filled with unwillingness to part with her child, how could she bear to part with him?


    "En, mother will be waiting for you at home, go early and come back early. When that time comes, mother will make you something you like." The Madame Song laughed.


    Xi Jiu Er choked and nodded.


    Twilight descended, and the imperial palace was dyed red with blood. Everyone was panic-stricken, not daring to speak. The palace was heavily guarded, and Commander Zhao of the personal guard thought to himself. No one dared to rest for even a moment. Although the assassin had killed himself on the spot, who knew if there would be a second one? Feng Qing Cheng''s horse entered the palace gate, and when the horse stopped, the court lady immediately went to lead the horse.


    Although the imperial palace was brightly lit under the night sky, under the vast and boundless night sky, it was actually so tiny. Feng Qing Cheng brought his own followers and quickly entered the emperor''s chambers. At the door, he asked his eunuch, "How is father''s injury!?"


    "It''s already stabilized." The eunuch said.


    The huge palace was filled with women kneeling in the imperial harem. When they heard that the emperor had been assassinated, they all hurried over and began to cry. They were the ones crying. If the emperor were to go, those who didn''t have princes or princesses would have to accompany him in death. Some of them were like flowers and jade, while others were unable to see the light of day within the palace, let alone children.


    When those young concubines saw the extraordinarily handsome man enter, they couldn''t help but be mesmerized. They were not willing to die with him. They were still young, so they had to think of a way out of this predicament. And the man in front of him could make him leave the sea of suffering!


    "Father!" Feng Qing Cheng cried out, his expression carrying traces of worry.


    There were four or five imperial physicians standing next to the dragon bed. These were all experts from the Imperial Hospital. When one of them saw Feng Qing Cheng coming over, he said, "The emperor''s condition has stabilized."


    Feng Qing Cheng looked past him and sat on the chair to look at the middle-aged man on the bed. Hearing movement, he opened his eyes, his confused eyes slowly looking towards Feng Qing Cheng: "Then you are here."


    "Yes, your son is here." Feng Qing Cheng nodded.


    The emperor ordered, "All of you may leave."


    Everyone said "farewell" together and left, unless it was their biological grandfather who served them, with the exception of Feng Qing Cheng and the Emperor. When they left, the entire palace was completely silent.


    "Why are you so impatient to kill me?" When the Emperor and the others left in silence, they suddenly launched an attack. The eunuch next to them was so frightened that he immediately withdrew himself to guard outside the curtain, paying no attention to what was going on.


    "This son doesn''t understand what royal father means." Feng Qing Cheng''s expression did not change at all, and even his brows furrowed a little. He only looked at the man in front of him and asked in an extremely calm voice, "Does royal father think this son has done it?"


    "Don''t tell me you''re not me?" The old voice carried a trace of anger, the anger of the zodiac seemed to not be able to withstand any ripples in front of the man''s eyes, and was still extremely calm, neither admitting nor refuting.


    The emperor propped himself up and ruthlessly slapped over, the sound of his slap especially piercing. Feng Qing Cheng did not budge an inch as he watched the old man in front of him fall onto the bed with an insufficient amount of strength. The ruthlessness and indifference in his eyes made the Emperor smile, and that kind of strange smile, Feng Qing Cheng did not even question it.


    "Qingcheng, are you resenting me?" The emperor mocked himself before asking in an extremely serious tone.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not say anything. He felt that there was no need to continue discussing this topic! Hatred? How could he not hate it? However, after feeling hatred for so long, there wasn''t much hatred. Hatred was also a very cold matter. After feeling hatred for so long, one would become numb.


    "If you don''t say anything, then that''s it." The emperor stared at the pattern on the top of his head and said, "In my entire life, the woman I love the most is your mother. But she was just a commoner. "Later on, when I was pregnant with you, I could only silently disappear. I searched for her for a long time, and just when I thought that she and you had died, I found out about your existence."

 C327

    He didn''t use "I" and only called himself "I", and was just like an ordinary person who told Feng Qing Cheng about their past.


    "I have never understood what she was thinking. She said that I only love her in this life, and that the child she will have in the future will become the crown prince and the emperor. "But she still left ¡­" The emperor was at a loss. He turned his head and looked at Feng Qing Cheng who was quietly listening and asked, "Do you have a woman that does not care?"


    Feng Qing Cheng shook his head.


    "Then that''s good. Wise and early death, a deep love for you. In the future, you will become a zodiac and finally, you will be able to ¡­ " The emperor didn''t know why, but he asked very stubbornly, "Do you hate me?"


    "Hate. I don''t hate him anymore." Feng Qing Cheng said honestly.


    "Why not?" The Emperor was curious.


    "I''m numb."


    The Emperor''s face stiffened before he suddenly let out a hearty laugh. This caused him to grimace in pain. At this moment, he was as amiable and amiable as an ordinary old man. Even though he was dignified, he was rarely seen. Feng Qing Cheng watched him silently.


    "I am actually very tired. I did not want to sit in this position, but in the face of death, no one has any choice." "I''ve never been a good emperor, nor was I made to be an emperor ¡­" He was like a chattering old man who blabbered on and on, saying that he had wanted to give up the throne for a long time and had waited so many years for him.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes flashed with ridicule, the Emperor was not angry, and only said: "Be careful of the child that loves your daughter, just wanting to give her the best thing in the world, whether he wants it or not, accept it or not."


    Feng Qing Cheng agreed with what he said. What he had could only be Xi Jiu Er''s child, others should not even think of getting it.


    It was snowing again in the sky above Yan Du, and there were quite a few people standing outside the palace, whispering in discussion. With a thunderous rumble, everyone trembled in shock. Some people were complaining about the strange weather. Thunder was still striking in the snowy sky, this was a strange place in Yan Du. Thus, someone said that there was a legend, that it was a winter with heavy snow. There was a grievance in a certain county, and the daughter of a family was slandered for having lost her innocence. She stupidly talked about the crimes against her stepmother in the court, saying that if her stepmother dared to swear, she would immediately be killed.


    The stepmother was concerned about the girl''s dowry, so she made a vow. Who would have thought that lightning would strike down from the sky and kill her on the spot? Since that woman was innocent, this matter was spread widely. I don''t know if it''s true or not, but it''s not a rare thing for lightning to strike in Yan Du.


    The thick and heavy door of the palace opened. Feng Qing Cheng walked out with his cape on, and turned a blind eye to the bewitching concubines as he cupped his hands towards the imperial concubines and said, "I''ll leave royal father in your care."


    "Of course, of course." The imperial physicians hastily returned the greeting.


    Feng Qing Cheng rode on his horse very quickly when he returned, he wanted to urgently meet Jiu Er! How similar was Jiu Er to his own mother? Would Jiu Er leave him? He was not sure, nor did he dare to imagine this problem. At that time, he sat on the side of the dragon bed thinking, he would definitely hold onto Xi Jiu Er tightly and not let her leave her sight. His own tragedy could not be repeated in his children.


    After riding on horseback for an hour, they arrived at Song Mansion. They walked into Xi Jiu Er''s room familiarly, and when they pushed open the door they discovered that it was very cold inside. There was no furnace or incense, there was nothing inside! His heart tightened. He rushed to the bed and found that there was no one there. Could it be that she fell asleep with Madame Song?


    Not at ease, he sneaked into Madame Song''s courtyard and heard the conversation between Madame Song and himself. The shadows cast on the windows were harmonious and symmetrical. There was no sound from Xi Jiu Er! Feng Qing Cheng coughed, Song Yun Shan who was in the room shouted in alarm: "Who is it?"


    "It''s me." Feng Qing Cheng said coldly while standing at the door.


    The Madame Song in the room was startled. "It''s the His Highness the Fourth Prince, he must have something urgent for you since he''s coming so late. Go quickly." Song Yun Shan was shocked by Feng Qing Cheng''s late visit, she quickly donned on her robe and left the room.


    "Fourth Prince? But what happened in the palace? " Song Yun Shan tidied up his clothes a little and asked as he followed Feng Qing Cheng to a tree. Feng Qing Cheng stared at him with a dark expression, seeing that his heart was beating wildly, he did not know what had happened.


    "Where did Xi Jiu Er go?" Feng Qing Cheng''s expression became even darker in the darkness of the night. His pair of eyes shone with a jet-black light and looked exceptionally sinister and terrifying in the darkness. His voice was even colder than ice dregs.


    Song Yun Shan immediately replied: This old official does not know where she went, she said that the situation is chaotic and she wants to go out and hide, and will only come back after she has passed the limelight. Of course he couldn''t tell Feng Qing Cheng his own thoughts and words!


    Feng Qing Cheng frowned and asked again: "Did she say where she was going?"


    "Fourth Prince, you know it, Miss Xi is a man with his own will, how can you tell me? She said this all because she was breathing with me, so as not to get caught in my trap again. " Song Yun Shan was not good at lying, but luckily his face was against the light so Feng Qing Cheng couldn''t see clearly.


    "I know." Feng Qing Cheng turned and left, not leaving the water one bit.


    When they returned to the Fourth Prince''s Estate, Meng Ru Yan came over and asked, "How is your majesty?"


    "Jiu Er left today ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng laughed at himself. Not long ago, he had said that he would definitely keep a close eye on Xi Jiu Er. A feeling of powerlessness filled his entire body. "Wise, early death, a deep love for you" filled his heart with mixed feelings. He wanted to believe that what Xi Jiu Er said was true. She was just out of the limelight.


    Meng Ru Yan did not reply. Seeing Feng Qing Cheng like this, she did not say anything anymore. He only said one thing: Xi Wan Feng was kidnapped!


    "Jiu Er did it?" Feng Qing Cheng''s first thought was that it was done by Xi Jiu Er. Previously, when he was at loggerheads with Jiu Er, she didn''t ask him for the person, so it was normal for him to kidnap her.


    Meng Ru Yan was quiet for a while before she answered, "Liu Shui, who was beside Jiu Er, was by her side at the time. She did not have the chance." She did not say yes, nor did she say no. He only said one fact. Feng Qing Cheng thought about it carefully. The possibility of Xi Jiu Er kidnapping Xi Wan Feng was very high, if not he would not be able to think of anyone else. Cao Nan?


    "Pay close attention to Cao Nan''s every move, and see if he kidnapped Xi Wan Feng or not." Feng Qing Cheng rubbed his nose and said with fatigue.


    Meng Ru Yan sighed in concern: "I''m tired, let''s go back and rest."


    At night, there was no sound ¡ª ¡ª The carriage''s speed was very stable, and they quickly left the Yan Du. The interior of the carriage was very warm and spacious. It could accommodate three people lying flat on their backs. The three of them slept together, Liu Shui tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Ge La said softly, "Don''t make too much noise when you come out, you''re disturbing the Miss."


    Liu Shui quietly closed his eyes and recited the technique.

 C328

    Three days later, Xi Jiu Er arrived at the Peony Pavilion, where she saw a very ordinary old man sitting, he glanced at Xi Jiu Er and asked: "Are you Xi Family?"


    The coachman nodded. "That''s right." Following the old man''s direction, they saw a winding path to the right. The old man then said, "The person you are looking for is over there. In half an hour, we will arrive at a guest house."


    The wagon driver could not make up his mind and turned to ask the carriage, "Miss, what do you think ¡­"


    "Listen to the old man." The woman''s clear and cold voice came from the carriage, light and pleasant to the ears, like an oriole with a noble air. The coachman thanked him. As the carriage passed by the old man, something flew out from the carriage curtain and landed accurately in the middle of the old man''s meeting. The old man lowered his head and saw that it was a wad of wad. The winnings of the wattled wattled wattles were extremely good, and the materials were also very good. It was hard and he guessed it was silver. Hehe, it''s not a waste of him waiting here for a few days.


    Sure enough, after an hour, he saw a relay house. Outside of the relay house was a large field of wild dried plums. The smell was really fragrant. Under the Plum Blossom Tree stood the figure of a woman. Her figure was graceful and beautiful without any bones, making her look extremely beautiful. However, that pair of eyes did not seem kind at all. As he coldly glanced in their direction, the coachman felt a sense of dread.


    "Miss, we have arrived, but someone doesn''t seem to welcome us." The carriage driver noticed that the relay station did not look like a Chinese woman, and was looking over in this direction with interest, smiling as if it was easy to talk to. Behind her was a beautiful maid. She looked very similar to the natives, but her nose was not that similar. She was very tall.


    Liu Shui got off the carriage and Ge La also came down. Then, he lifted the curtain and helped Xi Jiu Er off the carriage. Liu Shui was the first to see Shui Xian standing below La Mei, the two of them similarly did not give each other a pleasant look. Liu Shui who was always smiling at others, always seemed to be filled with hostility towards Shui Xian.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that Shui Xian was surprised, but it was only for a moment. She turned his head and understood, and smiled at her, which could be considered a form of greeting. Unexpectedly, Shui Xian stiffly nodded his head, and looked at a certain window on the second floor of the relay station without leaving a trace, as if telling Xi Jiu Er, that person was up there.


    Xi Jiu Er pretended not to see it as Ge La helped him into the Inn. Li Guo Er watched a carriage come from afar and was very curious, Mu Qiu Shui had stayed here for three days, she had also stayed for three days. These three days, she didn''t mention anything about Mu Qiu Shui pestering her, and directly told him that she liked him.


    The burning her forced Mu Qiu Shui to go out of the room. When a beautiful woman came along, Li Guo Er felt that she was inferior to her. However, he didn''t feel that at all, she was the number one beauty of the Hulk, someone who rarely admired his beauty.


    Didn''t she say that if she couldn''t get to the mountains, she would go by herself? Shui Xian blocked the door as she looked down at Li Guo Er with that tall and slender figure of her. In the end, Shui Xian ignored her. There was no other way, if her family did not come out, she could only use other methods.


    The Shui Xian who could not endure any longer started to fight her, but in the end, the two of them actually ended up fighting to a draw! It was beyond Shui Xian''s expectations. Since it was a draw, then our son, Li Guo Er, was defeated. Of course, failure wasn''t something to be afraid of. The key point was that you had lost your will to fight! Li Guo Er continued to work tirelessly to fight against Shui Xian, turning this small inn into a land of chickens and dogs, filled with smoke and miasma.


    Jiu Er, on the other hand, washed his face with tears all day long, crying until her eyes were swollen. It also allowed Li Guo Er to understand a principle that she herself had discovered: Prince Xian was a woman that did not like to cry.


    On this day, Shui Xian was standing under the wintersweet tree with a dark and gloomy expression. Li Guo Er knew that this person was about to arrive, so he stood by the door and waited. After taking eighteen turns, he found out that this person was very important to Mu Qiu Shui! Important? Her heart skipped a beat and she started to pay close attention.


    When she saw Xi Jiu Er getting off the carriage, her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly thought to herself, ''Unparalleled and independent''. Too expensive. She was wearing a light green long skirt and a blue cloak. There weren''t many complicated patterns on it, and the top grade materials were excellent.


    Ge La looked at her, she did not have a deep impression of her normal features, only that pair of black and bright eyes, which made her stare at him for a few more times. As she walked past them, a faint fragrance wafted over. It was a pleasant smell.


    Xi Jiu Er went up to the second floor. She didn''t know which room the Prince Xian was in, but a woman''s voice came from downstairs: "Third door on the right."


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look, it was Li Guo Er who said, "Thank you." With a bang, the second door on her left was opened by someone. Mu Qiu Shui stood at the door coldly, her expression extremely calm, and only her eyes were secretly surging. Xi Jiu Er smiled, and said a little stupidly: "Long time no see."


    He didn''t know why, but the anger in his heart was instantly extinguished by this smile, and he felt like he didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. Prince Xian couldn''t hold back his laughter for a while, "Indeed, it''s been a long time. Take a seat inside."


    "Alright."


    It was only after they sat down that Prince Xian saw the bulge on Xi Jiu Er''s abdomen.


    "Yes."


    Even if Ge La was a fool, she would be able to see what Prince Xian meant. She had already stunned Feng Qing Cheng''s beauty, and did not expect that there would still be men in the world who could compare to Feng Qing Cheng. This man''s eyebrows were raised, his almond-shaped eyes were filled with a natural sense of beauty, and his lips were glowing with a dark red light. She was very curious as to why some men were even prettier than women ¡­


    "Whose?" Prince Xian accepted the child within a few breaths. It wasn''t like he couldn''t raise a child. It didn''t matter whose child it was, as long as it was Xi Jiu Er''s.


    Xi Jiu Er did not speak. She did not know what to say, and did not want to talk about the child''s father.


    Prince Xian coldly snorted. "Even if you didn''t say it, I still know who the child is. Staring at Xi Jiu Er''s stomach seemed to be like staring at a flower, making Xi Jiu Er somewhat unnaturally covered her stomach, and said: "Mine."


    "Your own?" What do you mean, can she get pregnant by herself?


    "Mine, no one." Xi Jiu Er emphasized, her attitude was firm. Prince Xian seemed to understand a little behind her words.


    "Why did you capture Xi Wan Feng and lure me out?" Xi Jiu Er changed the topic. Since the Prince Xian already had a substitute, why was he still looking for her? After asking this question, she immediately regretted it. Prince Xian stared at her as if she had seen an ingrate, and turned her head unnaturally.


    Prince Xian sneered: "Xi Jiu Er, don''t tell me you don''t know the reason behind my actions. I''ve always had you in my heart, having promised you a pair of people for an entire lifetime, I can give you anything you want. Why did you disappear without a trace? Why? You always tell me why. " As he spoke, his incomparably handsome face was already filled with sadness and loneliness. This was the first time Xi Jiu Er had seen him like this.

 C329

    "You are very good. Perhaps we are not suitable for you!" Sometimes when I feel like I need you and you''re not here, I want to do it and you can''t... That''s hard for me to say! " She had been tempted by the Prince Xian before, but the two of them were fated to be together. Sometimes, she would ask himself, was she asking for too much? Why can''t they accept conditions as good as that of the Prince Xian and Feng Qing Cheng? Why couldn''t he be like other girls, finding a suitable person to marry and then having a couple to take care of?


    However, since its heart wasn''t willing, if it wasn''t willing, then there was nothing she could do ¡­


    Prince Xian seemed to have heard a huge joke? He stared at Xi Jiu Er and enunciated each and every word clearly: "I don''t care about those nonsense. Since you''ve delivered yourself to me today, how can I let you go?"


    Xi Jiu Er was not moved, she quietly looked at a certain place, as though she did not hear anything! Prince Xian felt that her anger could not be released at all.


    "Jiu Er, I''m talking to you!" he snapped.


    "I heard it, but what else can I say?" Xi Jiu Er''s face was innocent, her black eyes were sparkling, causing people to be unable to shift their gaze away. Her heart softened and she made a move.


    Prince Xian slowly bent down and looked Xi Jiu Er in the eye. When their eyes met, they could see themselves in each other''s eyes. Prince Xian did not understand why he was in this situation, then why was the woman in front of him here specifically to deal with him?


    "Jiu Er, knowing that I have come to find you, how much did I have to bear?" He believed that the intelligence of the Prince Xian would definitely understand the importance of this matter. She paused for a moment before continuing, "Are you just going to watch as I return empty-handed? "You''re so heartless, not giving me any chance at all?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart couldn''t help but tremble as she looked into his eyes. Such a proud and humble man had such a petty and lowly expression on her face. It was as if at this moment, he had already lowered himself to the level of dust. If it was any other woman, she wouldn''t have the heart to refuse!


    In the love world, she was always at a loss and had no sense of security! Not knowing how to love, or be loved, Ge La once joked that a woman would marry a husband that doted on her, rather than marry a husband that she loved.


    Asking the reason, Ge La thought for a while and said, "This way, I won''t be harmed!"


    "Jiu Er..." Prince Xian felt like crying. She was actually in a trance at this time? Then, the courage he mustered just now was completely gone?


    "I''ll give you a chance. What if I can''t fall in love with you?" asked in a daze. Give him a break, give himself a break! The heat in the room was plentiful, and the coals were blazing, but the cold still burned through his body. He wanted to cry, but there were no tears. He wanted to laugh but was unable to do so. He didn''t know what he should do now.


    Surprise overflowed from the Prince Xian''s phoenix eyes. I received a precious treasure as I laughed, "If I am unable to obtain your heart, then I will never come and bother you again."


    Pulling out a smile, Xi Jiu Er forced out a question: "You, you don''t mind me carrying my child?"


    "I don''t mind. As long as it''s your child, I like it." Prince Xian had long ago lost her mind from joy, she did not notice the expressions of the people around him, nor did she notice that 5 had already been standing at the door for a long time.


    Prince Xian asked: Where is Xi Wan Feng?


    "I''ll take you there. Be careful, don''t hurt the child." Prince Xian acted like a servant as she walked over to support Xi Jiu Er''s hand. She was extremely attentive, and her beautiful face had a smile on it, causing her to not dare look away as she said: "Why did you do it yourself, Ge La ¡­."


    "As long as it''s about you, I want to do it myself." Prince Xian''s expression was serious, not showing any signs of pretending. His dry hand supported his soft and tender hand, feeling the delicateness on it. His body felt hot, but his face didn''t show it at all.


    Xi Jiu Er clenched her teeth and pretended not to hear anything. When she exited the door, she saw many pairs of eyes staring at her, and because she was missing an arm to cover her abdomen, her protruding abdomen was exposed without reservation in the air.


    Everyone was surprised. Was it a pregnant woman?


    This was the first time Li Guo Er saw the Prince Xian''s smile in so many days. When his gaze turned to the girl beside him, his gaze was filled with love that made people envious and jealous! The girl beside him had a cold and indifferent expression. In terms of looks, the two of them were thousands of miles apart. Aside from that face, the two of them stood together in an oddly harmonious match.


    Li Guo Er could not hear what the Prince Xian was saying clearly. From his expression, it could be seen that he was trying to curry favor with Zhang Xuan with an unnoticeable wariness. He must have loved this woman very much, she thought.


    "Hmph." Shui Xian coldly snorted, then suddenly turned and left. Li Guo Er could tell from a woman''s intuition that she really liked the Prince Xian, but unfortunately, another pitiful girl was born!


    Xi Jiu Er followed the Prince Xian to the woodshed at the guest inn and changed into Song Tian''s human skin mask. Then, she pushed open the door and entered. In the corner, he saw Xi Wan Feng who was wrapped in a quilt and shivering, his hair dishevelled and his face pale white, looking neither like a human nor a ghost.


    When her empty eyes looked over, they immediately regained their spirit, as if seeing a deity descending to the mortal realm, she was extremely excited. "Song, Young Master Song?"


    Xi Jiu Er stood at the door quietly with her cape wrapped around her face. Seeing Xi Wan Feng trying to stand up but being unable to, her proud face from the past surfaced in her mind.


    "Little Young Master, it''s finally time to meet you ¡­" As if he had seen his savior, Xi Wan Feng crawled to Xi Jiu Er''s feet with his hands and legs, and did not forget to reveal a lovely and delicate smile!


    "Are you glad to see me? "Why?" Xi Jiu Er asked indifferently.


    Xi Wan Feng was a little confused. This kind of expression and conversation seems to be amiss, an uneasy feeling rose in his heart, "It''s naturally because I admire the little Young Master ¡­ I hope that little Young Master can help me escape this sea of suffering. After that, I will definitely repay little Young Master for saving my life ¡­ "


    Xi Jiu Er did not budge an inch and smiled enigmatically: "I thought that the reason you saw me was because you were very happy.


    Xi Wan Feng quickly thought, he did not understand what the words meant, and revealed a stiff smile, his pale white face made people shiver.


    Xi Jiu Er caressed her cheeks with her delicate finger and mocked, "You actually don''t recognize me. It''s a waste for you and me to spend so much time together and become sisters.


    As if struck by lightning, Xi Wan Feng was unable to move at all. His eyes stared at the copper bell as he involuntarily shook his head: "Impossible, impossible, you''re already dead, dead ¡­"

    "Ah, dead? Who''s dead?" The voice carried a trace of a smile. This time it was not a clear and cold male voice, but a slightly hoarse female voice. Xi Wan Feng was already mentally prepared, but he still couldn''t help but shriek out when he heard it, "Ah ¡ª ah ¡ª ah ¡ª ah ¡ª"


    As Song Tian''s human skin mask was slowly removed, a delicate and exquisite little face was revealed. With a mocking smile on his face, he looked at Xi Wan Feng as if he was the victor. Imagination is one thing, truth another.


    "Ahahaha ¡­" "I didn''t expect that I would actually fall for you. Hahaha, truly ridiculous, truly laughable ¡­" Xi Wan Feng''s laughter slowly turned into crazed laughter, and finally into laughter. She was laughing until she was out of breath, and tears continued to flow. His laughter was crazed, and her expression gradually became twisted ¡­ Suddenly, she leapt up like a grasshopper, her eyes filled with a desire to destroy everything as she touched Xi Jiu Er''s sleeves: "Let''s die together, let''s die together."


    Prince Xian who had been standing behind the door suddenly revealed himself and kicked out. Xi Wan Feng was like a butterfly flying in a graceful arc in the air, then heavily landed on the pyre.


    His emaciated body trembled as he laid on the pile of firewood. Accompanied by a wild laughter, his body spasmed ¡­ He only said in grief: "No matter who you are, the man I like is called Song Tian ¡­" With that, she died.


    All of her hatred and hatred for Xi Wan Feng disappeared completely after she finished her last sentence. He walked over to look at Xi Wan Feng''s dead face and laughed bitterly. Surprisingly, he was satisfied, with a slight smile hanging on his lips. She just died like that ¡­ Anxious and anxious, and also experiencing great happiness, great sorrow, and injuries to her internal organs, causing her empty body to suddenly be unable to endure and disappear.


    "The grudge between you and I will disappear at the moment of your death." Xi Jiu Er spat out a mouthful of impure Qi, she stared fixedly at Xi Wan Feng for a moment, then turned and asked: Why am I not happy when I die? I should be happy! "


    "I think you''re unhappy with her death. I think she did it on purpose." Prince Xian said in a serious tone: "This woman is too despicable, she even revealed such an expression when she''s about to die, to intentionally cause trouble for you. Come, look... "Isn''t that good ¡­" Both of her hands carelessly touched Xi Wan Feng''s face a few times, it was too late for Xi Jiu Er to stop him, since she was dead, the dead should be the big deal.


    Xi Jiu Er went over to take a look, and was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She did not know how he did it, but her face had already turned into a bitter melon with a face full of hatred, which made her feel a sense of novelty: "How did you do it?"


    "Isn''t that simple? Just use some effort to deform this face." Prince Xian laughed: "If Xi Wan Feng really dies this time, then you can live a peaceful life in the future."


    Li Guo Er smacked the table with her hand while holding his chin: "I can''t see that the girl looks outstanding, why does she like her so much, in the eyes of the natives, he is so weird!" Then, he muttered to herself, "My looks are about the same as that girl''s. Why didn''t he fall for me?"


    The maidservant by the side said lightly, "He must be blind!"


    "You''re really deeply in my heart!" Li Guo Er expressed her deep approval. He thought that the number one beauty in Hulk would actually not be blind, but what?


    The master and servant duo''s words fell onto Shui Xian''s ears without missing a single word. With a roll of her eyes, she gave a snort of ridicule and said: "You''re really confident in your beauty. You''re really arrogant in front of me!"


    "Bah! Do you think you''re ugly just because you look so white that you look like you have an illness? Then look at this skinny body. It''s easy for you to not give birth to a son. Which man is willing to marry you!" Li Guo Er weakly retorted, not bothering to look at Shui Xian anymore, as if she had been struck by something that left him in an extremely dejected mood. Recalling the words of the Prince Xian, he felt so stifled that she wanted to beat someone.


    Dong dong dong dong ¡­ The sound of the voice came from downstairs in the quiet hall. When Li Guo Er looked over, she once again saw Xiao Wang carefully supporting the woman. Wasn''t this the woman who cried all the time? No, not her.


    Although the two of them looked shockingly similar, their auras were different. A young lady from a small family, no matter how beautifully she dressed, could not conceal her vulgarity. Although the young girl wore simple clothes, her entire body was emitting a noble aura that seeped out from the depths of her bones. He raised his hand and an elegant natural flow flowed out. It was not an act!


    "Miss, her skin is so good!" The maidservant came over and said softly. Receiving Li Guo Er''s gaze,he said snappily: "My eyes, I don''t need you to tell me if I can see it." After that, she stood up and walked over to the maid.


    Li Guo Er smacked the table with her hand while holding his chin: "I can''t see that the girl looks outstanding, why does she like her so much, in the eyes of the natives, he is so weird!" Then, he muttered to herself, "My looks are about the same as that girl''s. Why didn''t he fall for me?"


    The maidservant by the side said lightly, "He must be blind!"


    "You''re really deeply in my heart!" Li Guo Er expressed her deep approval. He thought that the number one beauty in Hulk would actually not be blind, but what?


    The master and servant duo''s words fell onto Shui Xian''s ears without missing a single word. With a roll of her eyes, she gave a snort of ridicule and said: "You''re really confident in your beauty. You''re really arrogant in front of me!"


    "Bah! Do you think you''re ugly just because you look so white that you look like you have an illness? Then look at this skinny body. It''s easy for you to not give birth to a son. Which man is willing to marry you!" Li Guo Er weakly retorted, not bothering to look at Shui Xian anymore, as if she had been struck by something that left him in an extremely dejected mood. Recalling the words of the Prince Xian, he felt so stifled that she wanted to beat someone.


    Dong dong dong dong ¡­ The sound of the voice came from downstairs in the quiet hall. When Li Guo Er looked over, she once again saw Xiao Wang carefully supporting the woman. Wasn''t this the woman who cried all the time? No, not her.


    Although the two of them looked shockingly similar, their auras were different. A young lady from a small family, no matter how beautifully she dressed, could not conceal her vulgarity. Although the young girl wore simple clothes, her entire body was emitting a noble aura that seeped out from the depths of her bones. He raised his hand and an elegant natural flow flowed out. It was not an act!


    "Miss, her skin is so good!" The servant girl came over and whispered, but upon receiving Li Guo Er''s supercilious look, she said snappily: "I have eyes, so I don''t need you to tell me if I can see it." Coughing, she stood up and walked towards Prince Xian. The servant girl felt that her princess''s courage was commendable, no, very commendable.

 C331

    "Young master ¡­" Li Guo Er called out, but when she looked over at Xi Jiu Er, he could see that her skin was whiter than milk. Those eyes were darker than those of the cow. They were really beautiful. Hehe, this Prince Xian has good eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that the girl in front of him was around fifteen or sixteen years old, with a hint of confidence and brashness, and a pair of eyes that rolled back didn''t have any malicious intent. Xi Jiu Er poked Prince Xian: "Hey, I''ll call you again."


    Prince Xian unhappily came over and said. "Jiu Er, don''t bother with this crazy woman. She''s sick."


    "Isn''t there something wrong with her? And it''s a lovesick one at that. " Li Guo Er laughed: "Marry you, how about we serve you together with this sister in the future?"


    Xi Jiu Er turned a deaf ear to her, Ge La took the dim sum from the carriage and walked over: "Miss, Liu Shui and Shui Xian is fighting!" The two of them didn''t say a word and immediately made a move, scaring her far away as she hurriedly came to report.


    Xi Jiu Er was not too concerned: "Sitting in the carriage these few days is not very comfortable, I want to stretch my body a little. Don''t worry, nothing will happen to her, she knows her limits." Bang ¡ª ¡ª Something fell on the ground as Ge La smirked: "Servant saw Liu Shui standing on the flagpole just now ¡­." It probably meant that the flagpole outside had fallen off.


    Xi Jiu Er''s face slightly darkened, and said indifferently: "Deduct the buns for her."


    "Sigh!" Ge La ran out happily and shouted, "Liu Shui, Miss said that if you don''t beat him up soon, he won''t give you buns to eat." Bang bang bang, a burst of crackling sounds came from outside, then Liu Shui''s ice-cold face appeared: "You''re the snitch."


    "There''s such a big commotion outside, do you need me to make a report?" What can they do if they hit you? Ge La was not afraid of Liu Shui, since the Miss could restrain her. He turned around and went back to his work ¡­


    "Yo, so you like to eat buns. From now on, I''ll call you Steamed Bun." Shui Xian covered her mouth and laughed sinisterly. Liu Shui replied with a smile, "Oh wow, oh wow, in the future I will call you Steamed Bun ¡­ "Small steamed buns." After saying that, she intentionally glanced at Shui Xian.


    Shui Xian stuck out her chest and raised her head: "Little bun? I''m obviously a big steamed bun, alright? "


    "Big steamed buns, let me see ¡­" Liu Shui quickly reached out his hand and pinched it, dodging Shui Xian''s palm strike. He welcomed Liu Shui''s disdainful smile and asked in confusion: "What are you laughing at?"


    "Look, I''ll let you know what it means to be big!" With a swoosh, she opened his robes, and only after looking at Shui Xian''s protruding eyes did she buckle his robes, and coldly snorted in satisfaction: "I''ll let you know what ''heaven above heaven'' means, there''s always someone above you."


    "You, you, my butt is bigger than you ¡­"


    "Pfft, I didn''t see it."


    The more the two people talked, the more inappropriate it became. Other than Li Guo Er, the other people''s faces were filled with black lines, of course Xi Jiu Er, who had both honor and honor, also felt that it was shameful. Forget it, as long as Liu Shui likes it, it was fine. Only now did she remember why she was here, and asked Prince Xian: "You have news about mother Liu Shui? You''re not saying that to trick us, are you? "


    Prince Xian stared at Li Guo Er and shouted: "Scram." It was extremely simple and crude, Li Guo Er was not angry, she led her servant and joined in the battle between Liu Shui and Shui Xian, in the span of a breath, the three of them disappeared.


    "I didn''t lie to you. In these few years, I had people paying attention to her news of mother, but who would have thought that on this trip to Wind Nation, I actually discovered that her mother was still alive and was still working in Prime Minister''s Estate."


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat, Prime Minister''s Estate? She hurriedly said, "Quickly tell her who it is."


    "mother of cinnamon!"


    "Boom ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned and looked towards Liu Shui, who was at the door, and asked with a stiff mouth: "You guys said that my mother is mother of cinnamon? the old granny who served Xi Wan Feng? " Prince Xian did not understand what had happened. Xi Jiu Er and the servant beside her had strange expressions, then suddenly turned and ran.


    Shui Xian and Li Guo Er looked at each other.


    "What happened?" Prince Xian asked.


    "The mother of cinnamon was killed by Liu Shui ¡­" She knew that Liu Shui longed to see this mother, but she did not say it out loud.


    Liu Shui returned an hour later. His eyes were red and swollen, but he had a calm expression, after which he picked up the steamed bun on the table and started to eat. When he got to the fourth place, he forced a smile at Xi Jiu Er: "Servant forgot that we can''t eat buns today."


    "No problem, eat!" Xi Jiu Er said. After Liu Shui left the inn, Xi Jiu Er and the Prince Xian buried him beside a wild flower not far from the relay station. He looked at the mound and the simple gravestone with a complicated expression. The main reason why she buried Xi Wan Feng here was not because she was Xi Family, but because Xi Family had given her too much.


    Looking around, there was nothing bad about being buried here. The scenery here was very good, so it would definitely be more beautiful when next spring came. Isn''t it good to be free? Ge La carried the basket filled with wine, vegetables, and yellow paper with candles.


    The past gradually disappeared from my mind, and the hatred I had for Xi Wan Feng disappeared from my heart. There was joy and relief in my voice, "Since you are already dead, the grudge between us shall be resolved at this point. This place looks pretty good, so I''ll bury you here. Once I''m done, I''ll place you together with First Lady and the others ¡­ "


    Xi Jiu Er''s voice was very soft, so calm that people couldn''t help but put aside their worries to listen to her speak. She felt that it was a pleasure to hear her speak in such a soft voice. Ge La wanted to help her up so that the Prince Xian could beat him to it. This man''s identity was extraordinary, it was not easy to do so.


    "Ge La... "Let''s part here ¡­" Xi Jiu Er''s words caused Ge La to be greatly shocked, and she cried out in alarm: "Miss, you''re going to abandon me, why?"


    "Your country is currently headless and is looking everywhere for you to inherit the throne. "Compared to serving your country is a big deal, I can''t be so selfish." Ge La opened his mouth wanting to say something but was interrupted by Xi Jiu Er: "Don''t say anything. There are some things that you shouldn''t do against your own will. Do you see Liu Shui? He would only understand his own heart after losing the mother. Don''t wait for him to lose his country, then you will regret everything. Those are your people, you have the responsibility. "


    Ge La remained silent as she said to the Prince Xian: "Don''t listen in from a distance, I have a private message to tell her."


    Prince Xian laughed and leaped into the air, disappearing from sight. When Xi Jiu Er heard that there really was no one nearby, she pulled Ge La''s hand and said seriously, "Ge La, I have something that I wish to ask of you."


    "Please speak, Miss, there is no need for politeness between us!" In his heart, he vaguely guessed what Xi Jiu Er was going to say. Sure enough, Xi Jiu Er told her to keep this a secret, and she must not tell Feng Qing Cheng where she was going. Ge La said seriously: "Don''t worry Miss, even if I die, I won''t tell the fourth prince."

 C332

    "Who let you die? "At that time, just say that I left you on the road and you scolded me along the way before you went back to find him. If he could think of a way, he would naturally not suspect you." Based on his understanding of Feng Qing Cheng, this method should be able to deceive him. Ge La waited on her with all his heart, she really liked this girl, and her eyes were filled with reluctance: "If I don''t have a way out by then, I will come and find you for a place to stay."


    "..." "Alright." Ge La''s eyes reddened, and she started crying. She thought of something she was most worried about: "Miss, you have to go take a look, this stomach of yours is really just a child, if only ¡­ Pui Pui, what the Servant meant was that the child cannot have no father, even if the child is found another father, those who are not biological may not feel heartache! Furthermore, he has the royal bloodline, so how could he let his own child walk his path when he was the fourth prince and was known to be in the mortal world for his suffering? "


    Fourth Prince''s Estate, Feng Qing Cheng flew into a rage and almost wrecked the entire study room. The servants were all silent. When they saw Meng Ru Yan bringing a servant over, they all let out a sigh of relief as if they had seen their savior. "Royal Consort, the prince is currently in a rage, you have to be careful."


    Towards the kind warning of the servants, she only smiled in consolation, instructing the maidservants to wait outside and go in by herself. Just look at it, yo, this time it was not just the usual big outburst, it was a mess in the room.


    Feng Qing Cheng was leaning on a pillar, his face was gloomy, raised his head, looked at Meng Ru Yan and then retracted it, seeing as how he did not need to ask, he was sure to be related to Xi Jiu Er. After finding a place to settle down, he sat down and thought for a while before asking, "What did you find out?"


    "I didn''t find anything. As long as she had the intention and the ability to disguise herself, it would be easy for her to leave." As long as he thought of her leaving, his heart would be filled with grief and anguish. He would be hit hard by a huge hammer, which would be dull and painful at the same time.


    "You, ah, are just anxious and confused. If you extract the silk, you will definitely be able to find some clues." Meng Ru Yan laughed: "I have long since secretly planted my eyes on the Song Mansion, Xi Jiu Er left very suddenly, and it does not seem like I had made any plans beforehand. I think this has a lot to do with Xi Wan Feng''s disappearance! "


    "After thinking about it, I surmise that the reason the mastermind is doing this is to lure Jiu Er in! Now, in the Wind Nation, who knows the true identity of the Lady Fragrance, and who knows whether Xi Jiu Er and Xi Wan Feng are enemies or not? " Meng Ru Yan paused and looked at Feng Qing Cheng eagerly: "A while ago, there was a woman who came by, but unfortunately, I bumped into her ¡­ She is Shui Xian. "


    "Prince Xian!" This unexpected answer was as if it was expected. He punched the ground with his fist and said, "Wishful thinking!" It was a good thing that Xi Jiu Er was carrying his own child. Otherwise, he would not be able to feel safe. His heart was empty. Having lost his most treasured possession, he could not muster up any energy. He hated everyone and wanted to curse whoever he caught.


    Meng Ru Yan decided to remind him, in case he was caught off guard and got angry.


    "Jiu Er is not an ordinary girl, it''s not impossible to find another father for her child! Since she was young, she had not received much care and love from the mother and Xi Hong Sheng. It was very normal for her to do this kind of thing for a child to have a father. Of course, in the eyes of Jiu Er, it was very normal, at least. " Seeing that he was about to go crazy, Meng Ru Yan kept her mouth shut.


    "She dares!" Feng Qing Cheng was about to go crazy when he thought about how his own child would call her father and how she would call someone else''s husband. He would never allow that to happen, never.


    Jiu Er might not dare! Meng Ru Yan heard him reciting the scripture and asked again and again, "What''s so good about Prince Xian?"


    "Don''t even think about it, maybe Jiu Er doesn''t even like Prince Xian, and if she does, there will be many opportunities in the past that he hasn''t even seen her agree to! Furthermore, she even disregarded you, so how could she fall in love with the Prince Xian? " Meng Ru Yan heard the last part of his words very well. Right, if the Prince Xian had the ability, Jiu Er would have gone with him a long time ago. Hehe, he definitely did not know that Jiu Er was pregnant. As a man, he knew that no matter how much he loved a woman, he would never accept a child from the bottom of his heart. Besides, it was still unknown when the child would be born.


    Thinking that Feng Qing Cheng''s mood was good again, Meng Ru Yan instructed the servants outside to clean up everything! When the servants slowly came over to clean up, the fourth prince''s consort smiled and said, "What are you waiting for? Clean everything up and go out."


    "Yes, yes, yes."


    When she was done, she asked, "What are you planning to do next?"


    "I know that I trust her character at Prince Xian, when I settle the matters here, I will go and fetch her. I think ¡ª the movement over there has begun. " Feng Qing Cheng''s expression kept flickering under the flickering candle light.


    At night, Feng Qing Cheng could not rest. He thought about where Jiu Er would rest, was she hungry? Was that thief trying his best to curry favor with him? He woke up when he heard the crowing of a chicken. The news came from the palace that the Seventh Prince had dreamt of his mother''s concubine last night. What kind of divine medicine did he give her?! It was said that Seventh Prince not only dreamed of his mufei, but that mufei also said that he was the reincarnation of a True Dragon. It was time to get better.


    This news spread like wildfire. Feng Qing Cheng straightened his robes and sneered: "We finally can''t wait anymore. Let''s go, enter the palace. Since Seventh Brother is done, I, as your brother, should go take a look. Let''s congratulate you."


    The seventh prince had received the support of a group of bureaucrats at the speed of lightning. It was said that the seventh prince was a modest and courteous person, and that having such a dream was definitely a foretaste of the heavens! Overnight, the news of the people had spread far and wide.


    "Become a True Dragon?" Feng Qing Cheng scoffed, "Those people who said good things about Seventh Brother, remember them all."


    "Yes."


    Feng Qing Cheng closed his eyes and dozed off. He had not slept well last night, so he had unknowingly fallen asleep on the carriage. When the palace attendant woke him up, he opened his eyes in surprise. He dreamt of Jiu Er ¡­ And their children! He gathered his thoughts, straightened his clothes, and got off the carriage.


    The seventh prince''s chamber was packed with people. After hearing the report that the fourth prince had arrived, the atmosphere immediately became extremely strange. The bead curtain made a * whoosh * sound, and Feng Qing Cheng walked in with the cold wind, causing the temperature in the room to instantly drop.


    Feng Qing Cheng was the first to see the man sitting in the middle, he did not look much younger than him, there was a tinge of blood on his pale white face, and his handsome face finally looked better. The four eyes looked at each other and then looked at the officials around him. He remembered.

 C333

    "Greetings, Fourth Prince." They all stood up and bowed. Since they had already chosen their positions, there was no room for going back on their words. From their point of view, the fourth prince might not be able to compare to the seventh prince. Although many things had happened all of a sudden, it was not certain who would be the one laughing in the end.


    "Get up." Feng Qing Cheng''s smile had yet to reach his eyes as he lifted his robes and sat down. "All of you go out, I have something to say to Seventh Prince."


    When no one was optimistic about the Seventh Prince''s chances, he was able to perform a stunning act and silently sprout and grow in a secluded corner. Because he had not been favored by the emperor all year round, the furnishings in his palace trembled slightly. Neither of them spoke. "Look at your book, I''ll drink my tea. It''s a very harmonious scene."


    Feng Qing Cheng put down the cup of tea and looked at the Seventh Prince with his burning eyes. When he saw that the Seventh Prince was unable to bear it any longer, he thought that Feng Qing Cheng was a good person and would definitely be interested in him. Finally, he put down the book and asked, "Didn''t Fourth Brother have something to say to me?"


    "It''s such a cold day. You have to take care of your body. After all, it''s so difficult for your body to get better. Otherwise, royal father and I would be worried by then." Feng Qing Cheng seemed to be an elder brother who doted on his younger brother. His face was full of concern, as if all that concern had come from the bottom of his heart.


    He thought that Feng Qing Cheng would say something else, and was already prepared to respond. But who would have thought that the other party would not play according to the rules, and so he reacted rather unnaturally: "What royal brother said is that Seventh Brother will definitely take care of his own body, and won''t make you and royal father worry."


    "That''s good." Feng Qing Cheng also let the palace maids and eunuchs in, and after asking about the Seventh Prince''s daily life, he carefully made some arrangements and gave them some instructions: "I was once Sun Kongming''s disciple, so I have some knowledge about medicine."


    "I am deeply moved by royal brother''s concern for seventh brother." The Seventh Prince cupped his hands in thanks. Feng Qing Cheng enthusiastically supported him with a smile: "We are blood brothers, why are you being so courteous?"


    Seventh Prince''s face once again stiffened, then he quickly lowered his head and said, "Seventh Brother is terrified."


    "What''s there to be afraid of? Those who don''t know what I''m going to do to you." The voice rose, and Feng Qing Cheng said with a face full of smiles: "Alright, I''m leaving, rest well." The person who came was straightforward and nimble, and the person who left was also straightforward and nimble. Seventh Prince''s smile faded bit by bit as he said in a deep voice, "Go call Imperial Physician Zhang over here." Imperial Physician Zhang had always been the imperial physician that took care of his body and was the first person who found out.


    Imperial Physician Zhang had been waiting outside for a long time. Upon hearing the Seventh Prince''s orders, they immediately entered the palace. After hearing what the Seventh Prince said, he muttered to himself, "His Highness the Fourth Prince is right, these things are indeed beneficial to your body, and do not seem to conflict with the other medicines. Seventh Prince can be at ease."


    "Hmph, is he really that kind?" Seventh Prince''s deathly pale face flashed with a mocking smile. He didn''t want to believe at all that he had come just to care for himself. The Seventh Prince coldly snorted.


    When Feng Qing Cheng returned to his residence, he asked worriedly, "How was it?"


    "It''s just a clown that doesn''t need to be afraid of." Feng Qing Cheng carelessly took note of it. He sat down with a dark face thinking about something, and after a long while, he said something shocking: "In a few days, I''ll make him abdicate and pass on the position of emperor to me."


    Meng Ru Yan almost staggered. What did she hear? The facepalm was a little speechless. "Are you sure the emperor can pass on the throne to you?"


    "Didn''t he say I was his favorite son? All he''s got is me? It''s all thanks to the golden mouth! " Feng Qing Cheng smiled, but it was not a smile. When Meng Ru Yan heard her, she laughed, covering her mouth and giggling: "zodiac is good at lying."


    "Who knows?" Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently. A trusted aide reported from outside the door: "Master, Miss Ge La has returned."


    Feng Qing Cheng trembled, and shouted: "Quickly let her in."


    Meng Ru Yan was deep in thought!


    The moment Ge La entered the door, she kneeled on the ground. She looked no different from a beggar.


    "Fourth Prince, Miss didn''t want Servant anymore. After Servant fell asleep, she and Liu Shui disappeared. Servant searched for a long time but still couldn''t find them. Servant had no choice but to return to seek the Fourth Prince for help ¡­ It''s a pity that they don''t have any money, and they don''t believe that Servant is someone from Fourth Prince''s Estate. They said that Servant was a scammer, so Servant had no choice but to return on foot ¡­ " Ge La said while wiping her tears. Feng Qing Cheng was suspicious. According to his understanding of Xi Jiu Er, she would definitely not abandon Ge La and escape on her own. This ¡­ Suddenly, he remembered that the clan he mentioned to her about Ge La was already here. In fact, it had indeed come.


    "Did she say anything?" Where did she disappear to? " Feng Qing Cheng asked.


    Ge La had already thought of a plan in her mind, so she spouted out the whole story before taking out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom. The porcelain bottle was very ordinary, and she couldn''t see anything special about it.


    "Miss gave it to him before he left, he said that this medicine has a special effect when applied to one''s face ¡­ When Servant woke up in the morning, he saw the medicine placed on his pillow, so they left ¡­ " He then started to cry again, "Servant doesn''t know why Miss wants to give you this medicine.


    When Ge La left, she handed over the porcelain bottle. Feng Qing Cheng played with the porcelain bottle and his expression was warm. Meng Ru Yan walked over slowly and asked softly, "Has she seen your face before?" Although it was a question, it was certain.


    "I accidentally saw it ¡­" "There''s no disgust or fear at all ¡­" If it was anyone else who knew that she was a different girl, they would not have been as calm as she was. Meng Ru Yan thought for a moment and said: "You used the medicine she gave you to heal the wound on your face. Now that the Seventh Prince appeared out of nowhere, he must have been preparing for all these years."


    "Hmm, she has already been decided for me." Feng Qing Cheng sighed, placing the porcelain bottle close to his face, as if he could feel a beauty by his side.


    Nearer to home? The more she arrived at the capital, the more flustered she became. It was already a matter of life and death. Who else was in the capital that was her relative? There seemed to be no one left ¡­ Liu Xiang... Are you here? Why don''t you come to me if you''re alive? When Feng Qing Cheng had told her that Liu Xiang was still alive, she had secretly investigated. He took advantage of the fact that he had been stabbed by Feng Ru Jun and entered Feng Qing Cheng''s residence to read in his study and find some clues ¡­ Liu Xiang seemed to really be alive, in the capital.


    Why didn''t he come to find me? Why was he still staying in the capital? Everything could only be told to her by Liu Xiang herself.


    "There''s still two more hours before the capital!" Prince Xian lifted the curtain and saw a beautiful woman sitting inside the carriage. She looked dignified and dignified as if she had received a good education. He was surprised for a moment before he smiled and said, "Why do you need to disguise yourself? Everyone says that I like you. It''s not impossible for me to find a substitute."

 C334

    "..." I don''t want to get you in trouble. " Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    "Causing trouble? Hmph, I''m afraid Feng Qing Cheng already knew about this! Furthermore, didn''t I take away your substitute body back then? What are you trying to hide for? Prince Xian sat in and asked while grinning.


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while before she took off her mask.


    Xi Jiu Er lifted the curtain and smiled as she looked around. The weather in the capital was much better than in Yan Du. The passers-by couldn''t help but let out a smile.


    Seeing that she liked it, Prince Xian was happy, her whole person became happy, this time she was acting unscrupulously, it was still worth it. Soon enough, they arrived at Prince Xian''s Mansion. The servant guarding the gates was napping, and when he heard the commotion, he opened his eyes and yawned, "Who is it? "Ah, your majesty, your highness ¡­"


    The servants saw Prince Xian''s figure and were stunned. One of the pregnant woman''s eyeballs were almost popping out when he alighted from the carriage, and when he looked at the woman''s face, it was as if he had seen a ghost. He stuttered: "Come, Princess Laifu?"


    Princess Laifu? Xi Jiu Er was a little dazed. Who could still remember this name?


    Prince Xian laughed: "What Princess Laifu, this is my new Madame, hurry up and call me Mrs. IX." When the eyes of the servant bulged out again, Prince Xian giggled as he supported Xi Jiu Er and spoke politely, "Come, let me help you."


    Xi Jiu Er was embarrassed, and said softly: "No need, I will do it myself, I have a servant girl."


    No matter how Prince Xian listened, he could feel his teeth clenching and teeth clenching. He pretended to be dissatisfied: "I am your husband. Without waiting for Xi Jiu Er to react, she grabbed her waist and supported her hand with her other hand, as if he was holding her in her embrace.


    Xi Jiu Er''s body stiffened, she looked at the Prince Xian with a fake smile, and his small face that was the size of a palm carried a sense of warning. Prince Xian didn''t seem to care at all and deliberately moved his hand closer to his. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s small face, he smiled mischievously. "Let''s go. "


    Helpless, Xi Jiu Er followed the Prince Xian to her room under the surprised gaze of the people below. Prince Xian laughed along the way: "This is your Mrs. IX.


    When they arrived in the room, Xi Jiu Er immediately pushed Prince Xian away and rolled his eyes. He held Ge La''s hand and sat down, learning his appearance, "This is your Mrs. IX, quickly come and call me Mrs. IX ¡­" Puff ¡­ "Why didn''t you go and put it better?"


    The name of the Princess Laifu that the Emperor gave him sounded like the name of a dog. This Prince Xian even gave him a ''Mrs. IX'', and he even won it!


    "Hahahaha ¡­" "Then what do we do? Why don''t you think of a name? I''ll tell you later that you don''t like this name." The Prince Xian laughed out loud as her entire face relaxed. Xi Jiu Er snorted and caught a glimpse of a servant hesitating outside.


    When the servant saw Xi Jiu Er looking over, she hurriedly walked in and asked, "Servant, you wanted to ask? Ask Madame what tea he would like to drink. " When the servant heard Xi Jiu Er not liking the name ''Mrs. IX'', she stopped for a moment. She had only been in the Palace for a short while, and the reason that they had squeezed her over to scout was to see if this new Madame was someone easy to get along with.


    Prince Xian laughed: "Liu Shui by your side is a fool. Besides martial arts, there is nothing good about him. I think this maid is pretty good. If you like his, you can have her wait on you in the future. "


    Indeed, it was already good that Liu Shui was able to take good care of himself. With the fact that he was pregnant, there was no one by his side to help him. Xi Jiu Er found the servant pleasing to the eye, but her eyes were clear and immediately liked her from the first glance, then said: "Alright, what is your name?"


    "Servant has called Dong Zhu over." Dong Zhu immediately knelt in front of Xi Jiu Er and said.


    "Mm, you''ll serve me from now on. Will you be my personal maid?"


    Dong Zhu was startled, was the Madame asking her own question? Surprised but not daring to hesitate in the slightest, he immediately said: "It is Servant''s fortune to be able to serve you, Servant. I am willing to do a thousand."


    "Get up." When Dong Zhu stood up and saw her nervous and perturbed face, she liked her a little: "I don''t have any rules, I''ll do whatever I tell you to do, and just do your own thing."


    "Yes." Dong Zhu heaved a sigh of relief, and relaxed a lot.


    "Alright, serve Madame a rest. We won''t be able to rest properly even if we travel all the way here. Jiu Er, you have been resting for a long time, I am going out! " Prince Xian exited with a smile on his face. After taking a few steps, his smile completely disappeared. He went to the study room. There were already people waiting at the door. Without the Prince Xian asking, he said, "Your Highness, the emperor has been poisoned ¡­ With her life on the line, the people from the Imperial Physician Guild were at their wits'' end. The Imperial Physician said that it might only be a month or two. "


    "Find out who did it?" The Prince Xian asked with a dark expression.


    "It was caused by the people of Hulk."


    Hulk? Why did it have to do with the Hulk?


    "This subordinate has investigated and found out that the First Prince of the Hulk is most likely the one who kept this matter a secret when the King of Hulk died a while ago. The Second Prince has presided over all matters of the Hulk and firmly grasped all the power within his hands. At the same time, they sent out an imperial decree to send the First Prince out. No one knows what news the First Prince had gotten, but if he wanted to return, he was unable to do so and could not. He simply went back.


    Prince Xian pondered for a moment. Why was the First Prince looking for Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge? They had always been like this with the Hulk, he must have been ordered to get whatever he wanted! What did the First Prince want the throne the most? Then who could help him with the throne? Who was secretly coveting this piece of land?


    Letting out a sigh, Prince Xian rested for a while, then slept until dusk. He hurriedly dressed up to see Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er did not look tired at all.


    The supper was light, the rice porridge and a few other side dishes gave him an appetite. Prince Xian cleared away his frustration and sat down: "Bring me a bowl."


    The servant immediately brought a bowl over. It was fortunate that they had done a lot tonight, since the prince and Mrs. IX were so loving each other, they would definitely eat together tonight. Xi Jiu Er saw that he was eating so quickly, in a moment, he already finished three bowls, and then she asked: What do you want to eat after you finish eating?


    "Are you still afraid that I, a prince, will not be able to support you?" Prince Xian saw that she was trying to ask him about something important, and laughed, then asked Dong Zhu: "Are there still any more porridge?"


    "No more!"


    Prince Xian was startled, he put down her chopsticks and watched Xi Jiu Er eat, looking so pretty that he looked like a lady from a noble family. The person beside him was staring at him, wondering how he was going to eat it. He hurriedly finished the rest of the food, thinking that he would get some pastries to eat later.


    "Are you full?"

 C335

    "Nope." Xi Jiu Er was not in a good mood: "The next time you want to come over for dinner, tell my chef, you''ve stolen my food, what do you think I should eat?"


    Prince Xian didn''t know whether to laugh or cry: "Alright, alright, alright, I''ll bring you to the palace to eat, okay? The chef''s cooking skills are excellent, and will definitely satisfy you. How about you make an apology with this? "


    Enter the palace? Xi Jiu Er shook her head decisively. "No, I don''t want to enter the palace. I ran in front of the emperor the moment I got back, so what can you say about me if you can''t even point it out to me?" This Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was also a madman. She was the one who had said those strange words previously and had even touched him.


    "Don''t worry, your husband will help you with everything. Don''t worry, just relax!" Prince Xian patted his chest confidently, and before Xi Jiu Er could say anything she had already ordered the carriage and the guards to come.


    Since the other party had already made up his mind and there was no room for him to return, he might as well listen to him. With him protecting her, there shouldn''t be any big problems. This child belonged to Feng Qing Cheng, and she had already told him about this secret when she came to the capital. He must be conservative, and definitely must not let Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge know about it.


    She changed into a formal looking long skirt and tied up the woman''s hair. Then, she followed Prince Xian into the palace. As her personal servant, it was a rare chance for Dong Zhu to see the world, but she was afraid that she had broken the rules clumsily, so it would not be appropriate to implicate her master. I''ve heard that the palace is so chaotic that she lost her life at every turn. She didn''t even learn the rules of the palace well. There are so many noble people in the palace. What if she ends up causing trouble for her master?


    "Don''t worry, as long as the prince is here, as long as I''m not making any mistakes, I won''t be held responsible." Xi Jiu Er assured Dong Zhu as he nervously followed him into the palace. Dong Zhu insisted on following the coachman, so Xi Jiu Er had no choice but to follow her.


    Inside the carriage, Xi Jiu Er asked Prince Xian, "You''re not simply making me eat imperial food, are you?"


    "Hehe, I knew that Jiu Er is smarter than others, it is true!" The Prince Xian sighed, "I won''t hide it from you. His Majesty has been poisoned, and his life won''t be long." When these words were said, Prince Xian went over to him. The delicate fragrance of Xi Jiu Er''s hair slowly rushed to his nose, causing one''s mind to waver just by smelling it. His heart suddenly jumped and his lips accidentally brushed against his jade-white skin, and slightly trembled.


    Xi Jiu Er never thought that Prince Xian beside him would suddenly turn her head and come over, and the unique aura of a man could be felt from there. Hearing Prince Xian''s words, his eyes slightly opened. Poison zodiac really was bold. This


    The women''s backyard was filled with bloodless slaughter, let alone the men in the court, just Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was still young, while the princes were still young. The vassal lords hadn''t made any moves in their respective fiefdom, how could they have been poisoned so easily!


    It was inconvenient for Xi Jiu Er to explain in detail here, she only said: "The reason I called you into the palace was to let you see if you have any methods, if the emperor really has any consequences that would be unthinkable."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed coldly: "And here I thought you were simply letting me enter the palace to eat imperial food. You''re lying to me!"


    The Prince Xian King knew that she was not the kind of girl that he did not know, so he smiled apologetically: "I really did not lie to you, it''s just that my treatment was side by side with you."


    The carriage was not big, and the two were a fist''s length apart. The fragrance from Prince Xian''s body unconsciously assaulted his nose, and it was unknown if he did it on purpose, but he pushed it away with his palm. "Can you talk properly?"


    "What''s wrong with me!" Her beautiful phoenix eyes revealed her innocence, and her true beauty revealed her beauty.


    Xi Jiu Er stopped looking at him, who would have thought the Prince Xian would come over and ask again, "What''s wrong with me?" The fragrance of incense assaulted her nose once again. As she watched the face close by gradually turn red, her almond-shaped eyes brimmed with happiness.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge saw an old acquaintance ¡ª ¡ª Mubai. The Mubai was still as beautiful as ever without much change. She worriedly sat in front of the dragon bed and stared at the people on it, not knowing what to do.


    "Servant greets Your Highness."


    "Get up."


    Mubai turned around and was about to open his mouth to look at Xi Jiu Er in shock: "You''re not dead?" Xi Jiu Er pretended to look at Mubai deaf and mute, her eyes filled with curiosity. She bowed at Mubai, not admitting his identity and not denying it: "Jiu Er greets the Empress."


    She knew that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was the shadow of her heart, but she did not care about the death of others. Her own sister, Miss Zheng, was killed by Xi Jiu Er''s sister, and although the two of them were not on good terms, they were still Xi Family''s people, so even if Xi Wan Feng died, she would not be able to repay her sister''s life. Suddenly, she saw Xi Jiu Er again. Scenes of the past surfaced one after another, causing her face to darken: "You are Xi Jiu Er."


    "This is my Madame." The Prince Xian saw that the Mubai did not have the intention to stand up, and helped Xi Jiu Er up as she stared at the Mubai, "How is the Emperor doing? What did the imperial physician say? "


    Finally, when Mubai saw Xi Jiu Er''s protruding abdomen, her complexion looked a little better. When Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was mentioned, he was filled with worry, "Imperial Physician said it like that, the Emperor also did not show any signs of getting better ¡­ "Your Highness, since you can find someone to treat your leg injury, can you also have that doctor come over to take a look at the Emperor?"


    Prince Xian replied calmly, "My leg is injured. I can just find someone who has a high level of fighting ability, but the Emperor was poisoned. Can a doctor treat it?"


    Mubai was puzzled. Didn''t they say that his legs were crippled? Can''t you walk on the ground anymore? This... This... Could it be a false rumor? Could it be ¡­ Is there really no other way? Thinking about how Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was about to leave, she couldn''t help but cry out in grief.


    Xi Jiu Er walked over to take a look. On the dragon bed, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face was white but black, his lips were dyed with a light green, with just a glance, he was already deeply poisoned, even a doctor would not be able to do it. Prince Xian came over to see that her expression was calm, and was overjoyed. He liked her to be like this. The quieter it was, the better. He asked softly, "Do you have a way?"


    "I''ll fight until the last moment." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently: "I don''t even know what poison he''s been infected with, it should be more important for you to tell me." If you don''t understand the illness, you can cure it.


    "This is Hulk''s poison, look at the signs of poisoning, it''s Hulk''s'' Pearl Flower ''! This kind of flower is known as something I''ve forgotten. In short, it''s a kind of overbearing poison, and the moment it was found that someone was poisoned, it would be in its final stages. In other words, even if there was an antidote, the person would not be able to save it. " The Prince Xian knew a bit about the Hulk from the politics, but from the other aspects, they had gathered information about each other through the women. This woman loved to talk about being a host when she had nothing to do, so he had heard quite a lot about it.


    There was a doctor in the hospital who had seen this poison before!

 C336

    Xi Jiu Er muttered: "Why did this Hulk poison the Emperor? "This ¡­" Due to a woman''s natural sixth sense and her previous life''s understanding, the two sides had always been at peace.


    "Let''s first get rid of the poison before we say anything else." Prince Xian stared fixedly at Xi Jiu Er''s little face. It was precisely this calmness that gradually attracted his attention, and he couldn''t help but stare at the girl in front of him in a daze. in the end ¡ª. He received a slap from Xi Jiu Er in neither a light nor heavy manner: "Hey, what''s wrong? Is it the magic barrier? "


    "I was just thinking, since this Hulk dared to attack the palace, he must have a plan! What if this person went? Who would come to be the emperor? This imperial palace was sure to fall into chaos. If the Wei Guogong and Shi Chen Wen are not here, and there were any thieves waiting for an opportunity to attack the palace, it would be stealing the country! " Prince Xian''s face darkened.


    Stealing a country? Xi Jiu Er could not help but think that the Imperial Jade Seal was still in the Duke''s house, so she sighed and said, "I''ll do my best, don''t hold too much hope for it."


    "It''s good to give it a try. Like you said, it''s better to just give it a try." The Prince Xian did not mind, he believed in Xi Jiu Er, from the bottom of his heart. She never did anything without confidence. Since she said he would do it, then there must be hope.


    Mubai came over and asked, "You can cure it?" Without waiting for Xi Jiu Er to speak, she suddenly bowed deeply. "If you can cure Your Majesty, then I''ll do whatever you want me to."


    Without Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s protection, Mubai and her family would be annihilated overnight. She had been pampered for so many years, those who wanted to kill her were everywhere. When the time came, she would be outnumbered and outnumbered. There was no need to guess how she would end up.


    Xi Jiu Er did not help her, and only said: "I know some medical skills, and I know a little about detoxifying, in short, I will do my best." That year, Xi Jiu Er''s reputation had skyrocketed and she had become the capital''s savior. Mubai guessed that Xi Jiu Er must have learnt some from Sun Kong Ming. Maybe Sun Kongming had given her some kind of secret scripture, but the fact that her master brought her in for a personal training made her extremely intelligent and perhaps very skilled in medicine.


    Thinking of this, he couldn''t help but look down on Xi Jiu Er ¡­


    "This is something that only the three of us know ¡­" Before Xi Jiu Er had finished speaking, Prince Xian and Mubai knew what she meant and nodded in agreement.


    Wind Nation, Fourth Prince''s Estate.


    "Jiu Er went with Prince Xian. I''m afraid our efforts are in vain." Meng Ru Yan let out a long sigh: "Jiu Er''s medical skills might not necessarily be below yours. She also has a type of water that she says is made from her own medicine. You and I have seen the effects of this water. It is very unusual for it to cause people''s bones to turn white. "


    "Not necessarily, Hulk''s'' Pearl Flower ''has never had an antidote up till now!" Feng Qing Cheng looked at the formation diagram and said indifferently: "Only the immortal pills from the heavens can allow Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge to live!"


    "Why are you so sure?" Meng Ru Yan curiously asked.


    "Because the ''Pearl Flower'' method of refining it would consume a great deal of energy, and it would not be an easy task to refine it into a ''it''." Feng Qing Cheng put down the formation diagram in his hand and slowly said, "What this pearl flower is looking for is the blood and vitality of the child in the womb, and it must be a woman''s womb as well. The fetus must have been dead for seven to four days, and then the abdomen would open up and draw out the foul-smelling blood, and then use a secret concoction to become colorless and tasteless. " \


    "So cruel ¡­" Meng Ru Yan shivered.


    Feng Qing Cheng said: "A total of ninety-nine..."


    Heavens, ninety-nine ¡­ Meng Ru Yan was shocked. Feng Qing Cheng continued: "The people of Hulk are united, so it is extremely difficult to refine this pill. Furthermore, the conditions for the pill itself are already harsh, so how can it be so easy? One or two was already hard to come by. Even if Jiu Er''s medicine is miraculous, it might not be able to save Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s life! "


    Meng Ru Yan said in a daze, "That may not be true... Jiu Er is an anomaly to begin with, so she would often do those unexpected actions ¡­ "


    Feng Qing Cheng pursed his lips but did not say anything. If he really did save Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, then all of his efforts would have been in vain. He was betting on it now, hoping that the medicine would have no effect.


    Xi Jiu Er had done it in secret for Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, so outsiders would just treat it as Prince Xian taking a new pet and treating illness in the palace. From time to time, the Prince Xian would throw a tantrum. The Mubai would also have a face of worry all day, making people anxious. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not dare to spread his illness, and only a few loyal officials knew about it.


    Dong Zhu waited until Xi Jiu Er mentioned the imperial flower garden, seeing that she was extremely anxious to go and play, Xi Jiu Er allowed her to go. Dong Zhu shook her head: "Servant is still here to serve Madame. Madame is pregnant, so Servant has to follow closely behind."


    "Silly girl, I have hands and feet, so I can do it myself. I''m not a cripple, and this is not far from the Imperial Garden. You can just come back after you finish looking around." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "I don''t want to go, just let a palace maid take you there."


    "I think it''s better to wait for Madame to rest before leaving."


    "No need. If you want to go, then go. There are so many palace maids waiting on you. Are you going to make a fool of me?" Seeing how reliable she was was, Xi Jiu Er felt it was both helpless and funny.


    In the end, Dong Zhu said that she would only go for a while and would be back soon. An eunuch brought her to the imperial flower garden and smiled: "Miss Dong Zhu will be there to watch. I still have some matters to attend to, so I''ll be back to pick you up soon."


    "Thank you, Eunuch." Dong Zhu said gratefully. She had originally thought that she would arrive at the Imperial Garden by asking for the way, but who would''ve thought that she would have to turn left and right before she reached the eighteen corners of the mountain road? The elder felt that Mrs. IX was an amiable person, and the servant girl was also someone easy to get along with, so she pointed to the buildings beside them, not feeling bored at all.


    The imperial garden was not like an ordinary garden. It was filled with flowers and was filled with a strong fragrance. The gardener took care of the beautiful flowers that were blooming in the garden. It was winter, but it felt like spring when one arrived at the imperial garden. Dong Zhu was excited. She wanted to pick one flower but was afraid of bringing punishment down on herself. Just by looking from afar, one would be able to see how cautious one would be even when approaching.


    Suddenly, a palace maid rushed over, his face filled with fear, seeing the vicious look in Dong Zhu''s eyes, he rushed towards him with all his might, and secretly placed a jade bracelet on Dong Zhu''s chest without leaving a trace.


    "Aiyo!" Dong Zhu was suddenly knocked onto the ground. She raised her head and saw an overbearing palace maid staring at him with a terrifying gaze, causing her heart to tremble. She was obviously the one who bumped into him, why was she looking at him so viciously? Ye Zichen pursed her lips, intending to do less, then stood up and patted the dirt on her body, intending to leave.


    "Halt." The voice of a palace maid came from behind.


    Dong Zhu turned her head in confusion, with a face full of suspicion. In order to not cause trouble for her master, she cautiously asked: "This big sister is looking for me for something?" The palace maid''s heart became calm, and seeing the cowardice in her eyes, she suddenly raised her voice: "Are you the one who stole hypersensitive''s jade bracelet, quickly hand it over now, or else you will suffer."

 C337

    "Ah ¡ª" Dong Zhu said in a daze, "What jade bracelet? What hypersensitive? I, I didn''t take it. "


    "You still dare to argue? I followed the thieves all the way here. Looking around, other than you, there''s no one else. If not you, who else could it be?" From the corner of her eyes, she saw that Madame Min had already brought people here, and heaved a sigh of relief. It was a good thing they met someone here, if not she would have been captured on the spot ¡­ She didn''t dare to think about it.


    "I, I don''t!" Dong Zhu shook her head, her face filled with panic. Only then did a beautiful lady bring a servant from the palace over, her gaze sweeping over the two of them, causing Dong Zhu to be afraid, as she greeted in an unbecoming manner: "Servant greets esteemed guests."


    "Slap!" The woman said coldly.


    Before Dong Zhu could react, a palace maid walked over and slapped her face. Dong Zhu bit her lips. Could it be that this wasn''t a good greeting? However, she was also looking at those palace maids saluting in the same manner as a cat ¡­ Since the woman didn''t wake her up, she just squatted there.


    The palace maid coldly snorted and said, "Esteemed guest, our Empress is now the consort. If you''re spouting nonsense, won''t your mouth be ripped to shreds?"


    fearfully said: "It''s not from Servant, this Servant greets the hypersensitive Empress." With one look, Dong Zhu could tell that it wasn''t a palace maid, and from the way she thought about it, it was the first time she had entered a palace. The ignorant is innocent! Before the anger in hypersensitive''s eyes faded, she knew that she had treated Dong Zhu as a punching bag.


    The hypersensitive ignored Dong Zhu, and looked towards the palace maid by her side: "Xiu Er, didn''t you say you saw the thief who stole my bracelet? "Where is he?"


    It''s her, "the palace maid called Xiu Er pointed at Dong Zhu and said," When Servant followed the thief out, he discovered that this person''s actions were suspicious. Other than her, who looked around, Servant determined that she must have stolen the Empress''s bracelet.


    "Empress, Servant did not steal the bracelet. Servant was just here to admire the flowers, it was this Miss Xiu Er who hurriedly walked over and knocked against Servant a little, then pointed at Servant and said that Servant was a thief ¡­ "Empress, please enlighten me." She fell to her knees in a hurry, learning the words of the palace maids.


    hypersensitive glanced at Xiu Er, and Xiu Er''s heart trembled, she pointed at Dong Zhu and shouted: "What nonsense are you spouting? I clearly saw that you were trying to run away sneakily, and that''s why I bumped into you, if I didn''t stop you, who knows where you would have run off to."


    "You, you''re slandering me." Dong Zhu''s face was flushed red as he stuttered incoherently: "I don''t even know where the hypersensitive''s Empress is staying, why would I steal it?"


    Xiu Er sneered: "Who knows if what you say is true or not."


    "You ¡­" Dong Zhu seemed to be on the verge of tears as she turned to hypersensitive and said, "Empress, Servant did not steal it!"


    Since hypersensitive had nothing to do, of course she was willing to play around. Seeing that the servant was very interesting, she said: "This is something bestowed to me by the Emperor, I like it very much and never want to wear it. I have to find her."


    "Servant did not steal it." Dong Zhu cried.


    "Empress, you''ll know after searching." Xiu Er lowered her head, her eyes full of arrogance, humph, once she searches the area, she will find out, and she will be able to get through this safe and sound situation. hypersensitive completely treated Dong Zhu as a servant of some family entering the palace, with a darkened face: "Come and search."


    The palace maids by his side immediately went to search Dong Zhu''s body, Dong Zhu fiercely shook his head and struggled: "No, no ¨C" Knocking on the palace maids'' formation made them afraid, with a clank, everyone turned to look, only to see a beautiful jade bracelet lying on the ground in two pieces.


    "Well, not only did you steal my bracelet, but you also broke my bracelet. Someone come, fix her properly for me. "


    "It wasn''t stolen by the Servant. Please spare my life ¡­" Dong Zhu was stunned, the bracelet was actually on his person, what was even worse was that the bracelet was broken. What should he do now? Seeing the angry hypersensitive being like a mother yaksha, she was extremely scared.


    The hypersensitive said that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had bestowed this bracelet to her, but it was only one of the jewelry, how could it be as she said? Now that the bracelet had been broken into two halves, I heard that the broken bracelet was unlucky, and my face immediately darkened.


    Seeing the crowd of palace servants rushing towards Dong Zhu, Dong Zhu was scared silly, a feeling of fear swept over, it was said that the palace head was indeed planning to take people''s lives at any time. He got up and was about to run before he had enough time to think.


    "You dare to run!" Seeing that, the people of the palace immediately chased after Dong Zhu. After being pushed down to the ground by a few people, regardless of her suffering, Dong Zhu started to fight. Her actions were ruthless and powerful, the color on Dong Zhu''s little face immediately changed.


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" Other than crying, Dong Zhu could only cry for Madame to save him. The young eunuch returned from some business and immediately hurried over, "Stop, stop. What are you all doing?"


    At the same time, a tree branch flew into the ground in front of Dong Zhu. Everyone looked towards the other direction, only to see a body of blood red like before, with a beautiful face that was currently calm. Who else could it be other than the Prince Xian? The look in his eyes seemed to say, ''Try moving a bit more. There was a girl standing beside him. Her face was elegant beyond compare, and she had an elegant bearing. It was truly a pair made in heaven and earth for two people to stand together.


    "Madame ¡­" Dong Zhu''s words made everyone''s heart tremble. Could it be that this servant is from Prince Xian''s Mansion? Looking at how Prince Xian is acting ¡­ The people of the palace stopped what they were doing and rushed to the back of hypersensitive. Xiu Er''s face turned pale, and followed them to seek protection.


    The young eunuch hurriedly ran over to help Dong Zhu up. She was dead meat now, and he could tell that the relationship between and her master was as close as a sister''s.


    When hypersensitive thought about this matter, he immediately understood what was going on. Raising his chin slightly, he looked at the pair of men walking over and smiled, "Prince Xian ¡ª ¡ª"


    "What''s going on?" Prince Xian ignored her and asked the palace maids. When the palace maids saw the dark expression on Prince Xian''s face, how could they dare to speak? The young eunuch did not know what had happened, and only cried the swollen faced Dong Zhu, "The hypersensitive Empress said that she stole her bracelet, but Servant did not ¡­. Wuu wuu, Madame, Servant did not steal it, Servant did not steal it. "


    "En, I believe you didn''t steal it!" Xi Jiu Er naturally believed in Dong Zhu. Lowering her head to look at the broken jade bracelet, the young eunuch immediately picked it up.


    The hypersensitive said, "This was bestowed to me by the Emperor ¡­ "You!" Before he could even finish his words, Jiu Er had smashed them into pieces. His face immediately flushed red: "You actually broke the thing bestowed by the Emperor, you ¡­" A cold gaze passed by, and she suddenly shut her mouth. How could she not understand Prince Xian''s warning?

 C338

    "Dong Zhu, show this woman who has never seen the world the bracelet I gave you!" Xi Jiu Er said coldly. Dong Zhu was puzzled, raising her sleeves and exposing the bracelet on her hand, it was white with a tinge of blood red, the tinge of blood was extremely bright, it was a high grade blood jade bracelet.


    hypersensitive took a deep breath. She wanted to say that this thing was fake, but how could she say it out loud when the Prince Xian was by her side? Besides, there was no need to get a fake, right? Although the palace maids did not know about the Blood Jade Bracelet, they could tell that this bracelet was extremely valuable. It was not something that could be compared to a broken one.


    "I think the hypersensitive has already recognized it. It''s rare to find a Blood Jade Bracelet! My servant will look at that broken thing of yours? " Xi Jiu Er sneered, then turned to look at Prince Xian. Prince Xian said indifferently: "It looks like we need to properly handle today''s matter ¡­"


    hypersensitive also knew that the situation wasn''t good and immediately pushed Xiu Er out. She slapped him and cursed: "Bitch, I was actually deceived by you, and misunderstood this servant girl ¡­ Needless to say, this bracelet must have been stolen by you, and you''ve turned it over to someone else. "


    Xiu Er had thought that she had escaped calamity, but who would have thought that she would be caught again after a short while? She silently thought that she had actually found the Prince Xian''s maidservant.


    Putong! Kneeling on the ground, he kowtowed and said, "Spare me ¡­" "Please spare my life, hypersensitive ¡­"


    "Drag him out with the staff and kill him." When the Prince Xian opened his mouth, Xiu Er was so scared that he could not react. Until she was dragged down by someone, she cried out: "Servant is wrong, in the future, the Servant will not dare, never again ¡­"


    "Also, you have a hypersensitive. Chase this king out of the palace." Prince Xian said.


    "No ¡ª Prince Xian, you don''t have that right. I am the emperor''s woman, and the emperor will decide everything." hypersensitive screamed, but his heart was slightly afraid. The Prince Xian did not look like he was joking, as he was completely terrified in his heart.


    "See if this prince has the right." Prince Xian had a smile that was not a smile, but a cold look in his flawless face. hypersensitive felt his entire body turn cold, bit his lips and listened to the palace maid beside him: "Empress, just admit your wrongs, since the Prince has said so, he will definitely be able to do it."


    hypersensitive had only been favored not long ago, and it was time to be arrogant. How could she be willing to take down her pride at this time? With a cold snort, he stubbornly looked at Prince Xian and continued, "I am the emperor''s woman. He, an outsider, kicked me out of the palace just like that.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly walked to the front of the hypersensitive, pressing him back with her imposing manner: "What are you trying to do ¡­"


    "Pa!" Xi Jiu Er gave her a fierce slap, shocking everyone. Before hypersensitive could recover from his shock, he threw out his second slap again.


    "hypersensitive, you actually seduced Prince Xian? Eunuch Lin, how do you think we should deal with this concubine who is trying to seduce men? " Xi Jiu Er looked at hypersensitive, who and Prince Xian were stunned for a moment with a fake smile.


    "You, you''re slandering me!" hypersensitive shouted.


    The Prince Xian disdainfully said: "Trash like you still want to seduce me? Go back and look in the mirror and see what you look like. You aren''t even fit to warm my bed." The meaning of these words was to say that the hypersensitive was indeed suspected of seducing the Prince Xian.


    hypersensitive was both embarrassed and angry. "Who wants to seduce you ¡­ "You, you guys are spouting nonsense. Even if you tell the emperor, the emperor might not believe you."


    "I remember that the Mubai is in charge now, right? The Emperor has so many things to do every day, how can he have the free time to meddle in your affairs." Xi Jiu Er coldly snorted, and Xiao Lin who was beside him quickly found an opportunity to beg for forgiveness, "What Mrs. IX said is correct, the Emperor has already given the authority to manage the harem to Young Lady Mubai. This servant will go and report to Young Lady Mubai right now ¡­"


    "Go on, I believe in the Mubai and the big gift that you like us to give." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    hypersensitive stared straight at Xi Jiu Er with her beautiful almond-shaped eyes. Prince Xian came over and said: "Seriously, you can''t even find a reason for this, how can I fancy this kind of woman? It''s not worth mentioning at all. "


    "This is what you call humiliating her for." Xi Jiu Er said softly, allowing the hypersensitive to hear everything clearly.


    "Today, I want to see whether it''s Your Majesty or a prince like you who can cover the sky with one hand." hypersensitive''s left and right cheeks were burning with pain, the moment the wind blew, it would be even more so. But just as he finished speaking and getting slapped by Xi Jiu Er, everyone was stunned!


    "hypersensitive, you are really detestable, you dared to sow discord between the Emperor and the Prince Xian in public! According to your meaning, Prince Xian has authority in the imperial court and he wishes to covet the throne? " Xi Jiu Er''s words were really outrageous, but there were only a few people around, so what if she said it?


    "I didn''t!" This time, hypersensitive could see that this Mrs. IX was trying to find fault for him, and not only was she getting beaten up, she was also being humiliated. This was a heinous crime, she couldn''t bear it. When this Xiao Lin went to find the Mubai, the Mubai would definitely ask the Emperor for his intentions. At that time, the Emperor would definitely not expel him from the palace.


    "Yes!" Prince Xian jumped out and leisurely said: "That''s what you mean."


    "Good, you guys came to plot against me together, hmph!"


    Xiao Lin had left quickly and came back soon after. Mubai''s intention was to expel the hypersensitive from the palace. The smile on hypersensitive''s face stiffened. What? How could he?


    "Men, throw the hypersensitive out of the palace for me, it looks bad to my eyes." Prince Xian instructed his subordinates, and his subordinates did not care for the fairer sex and carried hypersensitive away. It was only then that he realized he was afraid. The news would probably spread out tomorrow that she was the first concubine in the history of the Li Dynasty that had been kicked out of the palace by a guard.


    "You vicious people have wronged me, Your Majesty ¡­" Your Majesty ¡­ "Chenqie is being unjustly accused. Chenqie has been set up by someone. Your Majesty, where are you ¡­" "Your Majesty ¡­" hypersensitive shouted, wanting to struggle. However the guards'' hands were like large iron pincers, unable to move at all.


    "Dong Zhu, let''s go, we''ll look for an imperial physician."


    "Madame, I''m sorry. Servant has caused you trouble." Dong Zhu felt extremely guilty, as though she was as scared and wronged as a child who did something wrong. Suddenly seeing his own bracelet, she recalled Xi Jiu Er''s words that this blood jade bracelet was extremely rare and precious. In the past, when Xi Jiu Er gifted it to her, she did not expect it to be so expensive, so she immediately said: "Servant, Servant will return the bracelet to you... To... Madame... "


    "No need to trouble yourself. Once you wear this bracelet, it will be very difficult to remove it." Xi Jiu Er pressed her hand down: "There is no reason for you to take back the things I gave you. Take it."


    "But, but this is too valuable ¡­" Servant cannot afford it ¡­ " Dong Zhu asked anxiously.


    Seeing that Dong Zhu was being stubborn again, Xi Jiu Er shouted: "Alright, just keep it, if not I won''t be happy for a while, I''m going to get angry."


    When Dong Zhu heard this, she let go and was about to bow, but she was interrupted by Xi Jiu Er: "Alright, alright, I''ve been standing here for so long, and I''m still pregnant, why isn''t there anyone helping me!"


    "Servant, come."


    "Let me ¡­"


    The two of them supported Xi Jiu Er and made him laugh immediately. "Just supporting one person is fine, but it''s so uncomfortable now." Prince Xian instructed Xiao Lin to bring Dong Zhu to the imperial physicians and brought Xi Jiu Er on a stroll in the imperial palace.

 C339

    "He''s really scared to death. This palace is truly terrifying ¡­" Dong Zhu thought back to what she had just seen and said with lingering fear: "That hypersensitive Empress is very scary. Could it be that the concubines of the harem are all like that? "Then you all better be careful when serving." As a servant, Dong Zhu felt that Xiao Lin was not bad and could not help but booed at her.


    Xiao Lin helplessly smiled, "Fighting and killing in this deep palace is a very common thing. There are some who are lucky enough to meet a good-natured master, but if they are unlucky enough to meet a tyrannical master, that is life and death. Not all masters are as friendly as the Mrs. IX, Miss Dong Zhu, your luck is really good. "


    Mrs. IX''s action just now was clearly to vent her anger, and thought that Master was really the fortune that she had accumulated over several lifetimes. It would be great if he could have such a master.


    In the next few days, Xi Jiu Er and Dong Zhu went private and did not come out. Dong Zhu was really afraid of the imperial garden this time, as she honestly went to the palace with Xi Jiu Er to read and practice, if there was anything good, it would be left for him to think about Liu Shui.


    On this day, Shi Chen Wen''s wife, Yun Qing Ran, entered the palace. The two of them met at both ends of the long corridor. When she saw Xi Jiu Er, she was startled. She then looked at the big tree in the distance, and the hatred and complex emotions in her eyes were wiped away.


    "It really is you. You haven''t changed at all. This child ¡­" Is it from the Prince Xian? " Yun Qing Ran looked at Jiu Er''s bulging abdomen and said enviously, "Truly wonderful. I also want to give Shi Chen Wen a child.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the expression on her face. She looked more mature and haggard. Thinking about the Prince Xian coming to find him, she felt guilty towards Yun Qing Ran. She didn''t know what to say, but the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.


    "I always said you were burned to death. What''s going on?" In the end, a little bit of life came back to Yun Qing Ran''s face and she asked puzzledly. Listening to Xi Jiu Er recount her experiences in the Wind Nation, she was astonished: "Jiu Er is truly capable, that Xi Wan Feng deserves it, but knowing him like the lamp had gone out, those who need to go away can go away."


    "I''m just telling you this. I don''t know anything about those who are by my side. You have to keep it a secret for me." Xi Jiu Er frankly said that she wanted to close the distance between the two of them. Of course, there were some things that were omitted, such as the matter of a child''s father.


    Yun Qing Ran''s eyes reddened. Thinking back to her, Xi Jiu Er and Chu Ge''s beautiful times, she felt as if it had been a lifetime. Hearing Xi Jiu Er telling her her secret, she felt like she was talking about everything again.


    "Jiu Er..." Yun Qing Ran wanted to cry first, so she leaned on Xi Jiu Er''s shoulder and cried: "Jiu Er, I''m crying so much, I think of Shi Chen Wen, I want to go and find him, if he doesn''t come back soon, I''ll die with him too."


    "Qing Ran..." Xi Jiu Er patted her back as if she was a child, "It''s fine, it''s fine, my grandfather and Shi Chen Wen are fine! We''ll wait here for them to come back, then you can have a beautiful baby and be my son''s wife, okay? "


    Yun Qing Ran cried for a while. Xi Jiu Er had a calming effect on others, when with her, no matter how irritated she was, she would gradually calm down. Ye Zichen nodded and said, "Mhmm, I, oh, if I have a son, then the children will be brothers, and the daughter will be your daughter-in-law. I don''t have to worry about having an mother-in-law, so I won''t bully my daughter."


    After that, Yun Qing Ran talked about her own life, and she felt that the most audacious thing she had done in her entire life was to take care of Shi Chen Wen. She once took a bottle of medicine from Xi Jiu Er''s side and gave it to him to eat.


    "You ¡­ "You ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was stunned, but thinking about how Yun Qing Ran had such a personality, she did not feel it was strange. She was a woman who liked and hated women, it was not surprising that she would do something out of line.


    Yun Qing Ran blushed and said: "I had no choice, that guy was like a stinky rock in a latrine, smelly and tough, determined to leave after marriage, not willing to let him touch me, in the end I had to do it myself." She paused for a moment before lowering his voice, "I am leaving it for him. I have a wish to have a child in the future."


    "Mm ¡­" Xi Jiu Er replied.


    "But--but he was so incompetent that he didn''t get me pregnant. It really infuriated me." Yun Qing Ran fumed, as though Shi Chen Wen had committed some unforgivable sin. Xi Jiu Er was stunned, and then she heard Yun Qing Ran say with a reddened face: "I work so hard, why haven''t I gotten pregnant? Jiu Er, do you think it''s my problem, or his?"


    "This... "I don''t know ¡­" Xi Jiu Er shook his head: "You should go see a doctor."


    "I, I''m too embarrassed to go ¡­" Yun Qing Ran stammered in an unnatural manner.


    What? Embarrassed to go? You don''t have the nerve to ask me about it? Xi Jiu Er laughed helplessly, and was struck by inspiration: "How about this, there is an imperial physician here, how about we have a look for you?"


    "Yes!" With Xi Jiu Er by her side, her face involuntarily thickened as well. Very soon, the imperial physician came to take a look at Yun Qing''s pulse. "Madame Shi''s body is a little weak, you just need to take a few medication."


    This time, Yun Qing Ran''s face became uglier. After the doctor asked for it, Yun Qing Ran ''wah'' and cried out: "Jiu Er, if he doesn''t return alive, I will be a sinner of the Shi Family. At that time, how can I face the ancestors of the Shi Family?"


    "Don''t think too much into it, my grandfather and your Shi Chen Wen are a pair of swords. If you can defeat the invincible hand in this world, you can just calmly wait for the good news." Xi Jiu Er was relieved, but seeing that Yun Qing Ran was so sad, she couldn''t do anything about it.


    Yun Qing Ran came and went quickly, and after talking to Xi Jiu Er for a while, she returned: "I came to see you today, I just want to know if you are the Jiu Er that I know. Since you have confirmed that I am very happy, Jiu Er, it is great that you are still alive."


    "Thank you, Qing Ran. You are still as kind as before."


    "Kind? Actually, I was quite resentful when I saw you back then. If it wasn''t for the fact that your Prince Xian wouldn''t have come looking for you, Shi Chen Wen wouldn''t have gone out to fight on Prince Xian''s behalf. But then again, what does the decision of the Prince Xian have to do with you? I can see that you don''t want to come back, so I can''t blame you any more. " Yun Qing Ran laughed embarrassedly, she felt extremely guilty for having such thoughts.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her deeply, and said with gratification: "Qing Ran, it''s so good, you haven''t changed at all."


    Yun Qing Ran could roughly understand the meaning behind her words, and she said with a slight smile: "Jiu Er, as a woman, it''s already extremely rare for a man like the Prince Xian to be able to do this for you. You have to grasp it well. Otherwise, he would have missed it. "A woman is after all a woman. Only by marrying and having children can one be considered perfect. Otherwise, why would the heavens want you to become a woman and not a man?"

 C340

    "Yes, I will make full use of it." Xi Jiu Er nodded and said seriously.


    When they parted ways, Yun Qing Ran said to Chu Ge, "Do you know that Chu Ge died?"


    "I don''t know." Xi Jiu Er shook her head. Chu Ge was Feng Qing Cheng''s man, she had tortured herself to the point where she almost lost her life. But she didn''t want to tell Yun Qing Ran this.


    "Chu Ge was given to him by the men ¡­" Yun Qing Ran did not speak further, and looked towards Xi Jiu Er: "Jiu Er, when we have time, let''s go pay respects to her, and not waste our friend''s time!"


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were unperturbed: "Okay, we will invite some time."


    From those pair of clear eyes, Yun Qing Ran gradually revealed a relieved smile. Coincidentally, this matter definitely wasn''t done by Xi Jiu Er. If it was really her, she would definitely be able to calmly tell him. She was a good woman. If no one dared to offend her, she would never take the initiative to harm them. Moreover, those people who did harm to her were all asking for it.


    Xi Jiu Er watched Yun Qing Ran''s leaving figure, her face slowly turning calm. Qing Ran, you want to ask how come I didn''t know? Although Chu Ge wasn''t killed by me, she was the one who started it. It must be Feng Qing Cheng who called him over. She didn''t think that she had done anything wrong, Chu Ge shouldn''t have done this to her ¡­ She wasn''t sad at all about her death.


    The sky was slowly burning with clouds and mist. Xi Jiu Er lay on the imperial concubine''s chair and closed her eyes to take a nap. At this time, the Mubai came over to say that someone from the front hall was here to treat the Emperor''s poison. The Prince Xian had already gone to take a look.


    "Mm ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was indifferent, and thus, she sat unsteadily on the imperial concubine chair. Mubai sat at the side and said: "It''s a woman, and she looks like a member of a different clan."


    "Right." Xi Jiu Er acknowledged, as if she was sleeping. Looking at her lazy and seductive expression, Mubai could not help but be entranced. When she came back to her senses, she saw Xi Jiu Er looking at her in confusion.


    "Your skin is so good, just like a newborn baby. It''s really enviable." Mubai enviously asked: "Do you have any secret methods that you can tell me? "It''s not like I''m going to fight with you for a man."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "My secret is to be at ease, to be calm, and not get angry at any time, this skin will naturally get better!"


    The Mubai was half believing and half doubting. Xi Jiu Er''s personality was indeed calm, maybe she should give it a try. The reason why she looked for Xi Jiu Er was to calm her mind, and to look around to see if there was anyone around her. She whispered, "Jiu Er, how much certainty do you have with regards to the emperor''s poison?"


    "Hmm?" Xi Jiu Er replied in a nasal tone with a hint of softness.


    "I''m just asking, I''m really worried." Mubai thought back to what the palace maid had told him that day. If the Emperor really went there, what would he do if the Prince Xian took the opportunity to usurp his position? Mubai had been with Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge for quite a while, and had gradually realized that this Prince Xian was not as carefree as he seemed on the surface.


    These princes were all young, and they were all eyeing the throne of the Emperor like tigers stalking their prey ¡­ Mubai absent-mindedly thought, as he stared at the flower that was not far away. Not long later, the Prince Xian entered and asked: "Why is there no one attending to you?" Only now did he realize that the Mubai was also here. Xi Jiu Er seemed to be asleep.


    "Jiu Er?"


    "What are you doing!" Xi Jiu Er''s tone was a little harsh, because she almost fell asleep and was woken up by the Prince Xian. The Prince Xian smiled and sat down: "I like your spicy power."


    "He''s sick." Xi Jiu Er rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "If you have something to say, then say it. If you have nothing to say, then scram."


    Prince Xian was not moved, he was surprised that the two of them were able to get along in private, it was Prince Xian''s fault that he looked down on other people, it turned out that he liked this kind of woman. Just which girl would be so bold as to tell Prince Xian to scram?


    "Guess who came from the front hall?" Prince Xian said: "You definitely wouldn''t have thought."


    "What if I guessed it?" Xi Jiu Er''s eyelids twitched, she peeked through the gap in her eyes. Prince Xian was startled, then after thinking for a while, he said with certainty: "You definitely won''t be able to guess it, because if I can''t even guess at you, then it''s even more impossible. You''re not as smart as me."


    What kind of theory was this? Xi Jiu Er said: "If I guess correctly, Prince Xian, you should disguise yourself as a woman and let me hide." She had always wanted to know what kind of scenery Prince Xian would have if she was dressed like a girl. She was probably a top beauty as well.


    The Prince Xian was a little hesitant, but logically speaking, Xi Jiu Er could not guess. But from the looks of it, this was already an accomplishment! Did he really know?


    "Good!" "Women''s clothing is women''s clothing." Prince Xian agreed immediately.


    "Li Guo Er, is that right?" Xi Jiu Er smiled.


    Prince Xian''s face stiffened, it became extremely ugly, and he immediately became somewhat discouraged: "How do you know?"


    "It''s very simple. You have Li Guo Er''s scent on you." Xi Jiu Er laughed. Back then when they met at the relay station, Li Guo Er who was deep in love with Prince Xian did not follow them. Today, Prince Xian also had Li Guo Er''s fragrance on his body, could it be that he couldn''t explain anything?


    "So that''s how it is." Prince Xian was willing to admit defeat: "How about I dress you in female attire tonight?"


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Great." She thought to herself that this Li Guo Er was actually related to the Hulk, for her to be so daring to enter the palace to see the Prince Xian, this courage was not something an ordinary girl could possess, could he be a princess of the Hulk?


    Xi Jiu Er pondered as she asked: "What conditions did Li Guo Er propose?"


    When the Mubai heard that ''Li Guo Er'' was a woman''s name, he was already a little curious. Then suddenly, he wondered, could this woman be related to the Emperor?


    "Li Guo Er wants our seven cities." Prince Xian''s face darkened again: "They are Kang Ding, Xiao Village, Geng Jiao, Huang Wei, He Ding and Ru Yang."


    Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, but she did not understand why Li Guo Er wanted the seven cities. Logically speaking, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s life was much more valuable than the seven cities''. If there were seven of them, it didn''t matter whether they were big or small ¡­ He couldn''t remember the complete map board in his mind, but Mubai seemed to have thought of something as he exclaimed, "Ahh!"


    "What did Young Lady Mubai think of?" Prince Xian asked.


    "If someone else wants to go to these seven cities, the southwest will become a gap. Once this gap is broken, the enemy can come directly to the capital." Mubai''s words received the Prince Xian''s praise. Sure enough, Mubai was not just a beautiful woman, he was also quite smart.


    Xi Jiu Er was also not surprised. Since Li Guo Er was from the Hulk, and she dared to drug Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge so blatantly, what difference did it make if she wanted to fight her way into the capital? So ¡ª she continued rocking in the chaise longue even after hearing the news. He didn''t seem to care in the slightest.

 C341

    "You can use a beauty''s trick, since Li Guo Er is interested in you, you can use a beauty''s trick to confuse him, if she foolishly gives you the medicine, you will be spared seven cities. "How great!" Xi Jiu Er clapped her hands: "Oh right, I think this method will work."


    Prince Xian was stunned, "You think that girl truly likes me? I think she was just teasing me. "


    "Did I hear it right? She''s actually playing with you? "Who are you? You''re the Prince Xian ¡­" Xi Jiu Er looked at Prince Xian in astonishment, his eyes serious and not at ease. Prince Xian, based on his experience in the field of amorous affairs, did not like him at all. It was probably because he had nothing to do after eating his fill in one day.


    Seeing that they were not in a hurry to flirt, Mubai could not help but ask, "Do we need to change the antidote?" Prince Xian rolled his eyes as Xi Jiu Er said, "The medicine in her hands might not be the antidote. As far as I know, there''s no antidote for this poison at all ¡­"


    "AHH!" Mubai became anxious: "Then what do we do? Maybe, maybe her medicine is real too. If the City Emperor were to wake up, wouldn''t it be fine to take the city back?! "


    "Sigh ¡ª Young Lady Mubai, don''t worry. With me in the Emperor''s side, there won''t be any problems. Trust me." In Mubai''s eyes, the worry for Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was genuine and sincere. The concern that was expressed was because of her love for a man. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was a lucky man, but he still retained love in the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression had a bewitching charm to it, making people want to believe in her. For some reason, Mubai''s heart calmed down: "Alright, I believe in you. Since you said it like that, then you must have full confidence in yourself. Jiu Er, I''ll leave the emperor to you, I won''t forget your kindness to me. " In the end, even Xi Jiu Er was moved.


    "Young Lady Mubai, quickly get up. Saving the emperor is something I should do." Xi Jiu Er helped the Mubai up. Even if there were any grudges between the two, they had all disappeared now. With the loss of her twin, even if Mubai hated him, she wouldn''t be able to do anything to hurt him in the short term.


    "Jiu Er... "You are a good woman ¡­" Mubai praised sincerely.


    "Haha ¡­" Xi Jiu Er smiled and asked, What kind of woman was she? She didn''t think that living a new life was just for revenge. Now that her enemies were all dead, she wanted to see her child grow up and live freely. When he thought of Feng Qing Cheng, this man, her head still hurt. Forget it, forget it, don''t think about him anymore.


    Li Guo Er was speechless at the extravagance and care of the palace, the people of the palace were all in order, and the rules were very strict. They were all well-dressed, and their words and actions were unlike those of the Court ladies. Li Guo Er allowed the palace maids to lead him around the palace, making him feel dizzy, unable to differentiate between east, south, west and south.


    Finally, they stopped at the courtyard that Xi Jiu Er lived in, and coincidentally saw Xi Jiu Er resting with his eyes closed, looking leisurely and relaxed. The old withered vine tree, the orange sunlight, and the apricot-colored dress ¡­ Monotonic colors combine to create a different kind of beauty. Li Guo Er stood at the door and watched for a while, thinking that all sorts of beauties could be seen, just like the palace maids, who were like the flowers in the garden, they were all different from the others.


    Xi Jiu Er felt that someone was staring at him, so she opened her eyes and saw Li Guo Er, waving for her to come over. Li Guo Er grinned as she came over: "Princess."


    Xi Jiu Er waved her hand to order the rest of the people to retreat. Only then did she whisper: "Miss Li, our Prince plans to use beauties as bait. You must be careful."


    Li Guo Er''s eyes lit up, "Really?" She was suddenly at a loss, "I-What if I can''t hold it in anymore? Isn''t, isn''t this delaying matters? "


    "Look at what you''re saying, this antidote isn''t real anyway. When he uses a beauty trap, you can just give him the antidote. When the rice is cooked and ripe, you can marry him, and we will be calling each other sisters." I have a pretty good temper. We''ll serve together, so I won''t make things difficult for you. When the time comes, how about you give him a big fat kid? When the emperor dies and the Prince Xian ascends the throne to become emperor, I will be the empress and you will be the favorite concubine ¡­ At that time, how about you play with your power and make the people of Hulk stronger and become the strongest relative? " Xi Jiu Er was afraid that others would hear, and so he said softly, at the same time she carefully looked around to see if there was anyone else.


    Li Guo Er''s face suddenly cracked like a rock, and Xi Jiu Er could even faintly hear the cracking sounds. Li Guo Er was startled: "This, this Prince Xian intends to replace it?" He actually told him such a confidential thing. Was this woman truly treating him as a family, or was there something wrong with her mind?


    "Of course, who asked you to give me fake medicine, it just happens to be a good opportunity for Prince Xian." Xi Jiu Er said as a matter of fact, "I''ve thought about this Empress for a long time, even in my dreams."


    "This... This medicine is real. " Finally, Li Guo Er confidently said, "After I eat this medicine, the emperor''s illness will be cured."


    "How do you know it''s useful?" Perhaps it was you who poisoned the Emperor? " Xi Jiu Er said casually.


    "What do you mean?" Li Guo Er heard the hidden meaning behind his words and stared at Xi Jiu Er warily, "We weren''t the ones who poisoned the emperor."


    "Really?" When we met each other, Prince Xian and I did not know about this matter. When we returned, we found out that the Emperor was poisoned, and in order to not cause panic, we did not tell anyone. I was puzzled, you are from Hulk, and we are together. Or is it the traitor who gave you the news? " Xi Jiu Er sneered, seeing that Li Guo Er had gradually calmed down, she said: "Think about it, what I said just now was not impossible. You and Prince Xian have cooked raw rice into cooked rice, when Prince Xian ascends the throne, you will be his concubine. I know that your brother is the First Prince. Recently, your ambitious Second Prince seems to be about to become the King soon ¡­ You have to think about it clearly. "


    Li Guo Er was silent for a moment before asking again, "Prince Xian likes you so much, he doesn''t see me in front of him."


    Oh? Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Men are one thing in front of me, but men are another behind the scenes. Who knows?"


    "You don''t know, during those three days at the relay station, I saw that he was worried about you all day, and that it wasn''t a lie. And he secretly cried for you. " Li Guo Er shook her head: "The man I am looking for has one mind and one heart. I cannot have any other woman in my heart, or else I will feel extremely uncomfortable in my heart." At her age, she should have married a long time ago. Although there were many men who liked her, they weren''t things she wanted.

 C342

    Xi Jiu Er was quiet, but she did not say those words in the end. She did not want to hurt a woman who had the same thoughts as her. With a smile that revealed exhaustion, Li Guo Er tactfully took her leave.


    When they arrived at a unique narrow path, the eunuch who was leading the way quietly led the way. The servant thought about Xi Jiu Er''s bold words and the expression of certainty, and became uneasy: "Miss, could what she said be true?"


    "She''s teasing me." Li Guo Er said perfunctorily. She was not sure if Xi Jiu Er''s words were true or false, but he knew that this pill was fake. However, it was to allow people to temporarily suppress the poison. After a few days, the poison would act up and die faster. Xi Jiu Er said that the Prince Xian had the intention of replacing him again, and she continued to observe. The Prince Xian was not like the legends, he was very decisive in handling matters, he did not need to ask the Minister for his opinion, and would handle matters appropriately.


    Her mind was in a mess ¡ª ¡ª If Xi Jiu Er really wanted to replace the Prince Xian, then this road might not be impossible! Even though he was married to Prince Xian, Prince Xian didn''t think of him as a good person at all. He really knew how to joke around. Do you want to learn how to climb into a man''s bed like those women?


    Li Guo Er''s head was spinning. She could tell that Xi Jiu Er and the others already knew that this medicine was fake, that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was definitely going to die, then the problem was ¡­ If Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge died, who was going to be the emperor? Prince Xian?


    "Miss, what do we do next?" The maidservant asked.


    "Let''s see ¡­" Since I have entered the palace, I did not think of returning alive. I only hope that my brother can smoothly reclaim the throne that belongs to him. " Li Guo Er said helplessly.


    The maidservant was silent.


    Three days later, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge opened his eyes, the Mubai beside him had been dozing off, he felt the finger in his hand moved, as though he had been struck by lightning, he woke up, and exclaimed: "Men, men!"


    The eunuch came over, and immediately said when he saw that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had woken up, "Go ahead, Mrs. IX."


    "Yes."


    Xi Jiu Er was currently sleeping soundly, when the eunuch came to invite him, he had already told to pass on the message, "Madame said that it would be great if the person woke up, let the imperial doctor take a look at his pulse to see if there is any residual poison. If the remaining poison does not clear out, you have a bowl of medicine here, drink it and everything will be alright. It would be so great if it could be cleared up, so that the royal kitchen can prepare light and delicious food. "


    "Yes, your servant will leave now." The eunuch laughed and left: "This servant will not disturb Mrs. IX."


    When the eunuch left, Xi Jiu Er opened hshe eyes with an indifferent expression. Dong Zhu came over to see her awake and said, "Madame, the Emperor has awoken, but she never thought that the Madame would really be so capable. Even the imperial doctors could do nothing about it." To Dong Zhu, who had just come out, he did not even dare dream of entering the palace. She could even see the emperor and the emperors of the imperial harem, as well as eat food made from imperial kitchens ¡­ All of this seemed like a dream.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed faintly: "It''s just a coincidence."


    "What are you talking about?" When Prince Xian''s voice transmitted over, Dong Zhu chuckled and said, "Dong Zhu is saying that Madame''s skills are really great." With that, she bowed towards the Prince Xian and left, leaving the two of them alone.


    "Jiu Er..." This sound of Jiu Er''s mouth was like smeared honey, Xi Jiu Er laughed and said, "Can you call me that? I''m getting goosebumps."


    "Sigh ¡­" Prince Xian really did not know whether to laugh or cry. Helplessly, he sat down and picked up the hair that was scattered on the ground and said unhappily: "You ingrate, you really make people love and hate you."


    Xi Jiu Er was silent, she had better not continue with this topic, and watched as the Prince Xian played with his hair blandly: "I want to go home." Prince Xian was surprised for a moment when he heard those words, and he started to rejoice inexplicably: "Go home, wow, there''s nothing left for us here in the palace. Go back then."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s final memory was suddenly seeing darkness before his eyes, then he could not remember anything at all. When he woke up, he saw Mubai staring at him in a daze. Although he did not know what had happened, his gaze made his heart warm.


    The Mubai felt that everything he said was worth it, so the imperial physician came over with a look of joy on his face. He checked his pulse and said, "The heavens have truly protected my Daxing ¡­ "The Emperor''s poison is resolved."


    "Poison?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge asked while taking a deep breath to moisten his throat.


    The Mubai then told him the whole story, and sighed: "If it wasn''t for you, I''m afraid ¡­" was afraid that she did not say anything, causing his heart to tremble, he was actually poisoned, and almost died, he almost lost his life to her. Anger welled up in his heart as he shouted, "Have you caught him yet?"


    "Your majesty, we''ve caught him. We''ll wait for him to wake up and interrogate us." They had already interrogated him. His Majesty had poisoned all of their trusted aides, so they had lost the ability to think. They had almost beaten him to death.


    "Alright, wait until This Emperor is better before questioning you in person." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge endured his anger and ordered the palace maids to bring the Prince Xian and the Mrs. IX over. The servant returned to say that Prince Xian and the elder had already left the palace and were returning to the manor. Mubai was stunned and kept silent.


    "This time, Prince Xian has repaid the debt. I shall let bygones be bygones." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge sighed and started to eat the porridge. After hearing the official report about what happened today, he finally mentioned Li Guo Er. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge pursed his lips: "Lock his up, I still have something to ask her."


    "Yes."


    Mubai said: "I chased hypersensitive out of the palace."


    "Expulsion from the palace? "What is it?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge felt that there must be a reason why Mubai was not that kind of woman. Hearing Mubai''s report, he replied without a care, "Forget it, since you''ve already expelled yourself, then just expel yourself from the palace."


    Mubai''s heart felt a little better. No matter what, she could still be considered to be comforted. His heart was burning hot, waiting for Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge to eat, the atmosphere was extremely warm and harmonious. Other people didn''t know about the news of the emperor waking up, they only knew that he had prepared porridge and sent it over. Seeing that Prince Xian hadn''t made any movements these past few days, Li Guo Er also knew that the matter of the medicine had been found out, and became anxious. He heard some movement and wondered if the Emperor had woken up.


    No, absolutely not. This kind of poison had no antidote, not even the deities of the Transcending Mortality Stage would have an antidote for it. Before Li Guo Er could calm herself down, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open by the guards.


    "On the orders of the emperor, take these two men down for me." The man in the lead shouted.


    "Miss ¡­" The maidservant was slightly terrified, he only called out one word before falling silent. The moment they entered, Li Guo Er knew that the situation was bad, and said calmly, "There''s no need for you to do anything, we can leave ourselves."


    The man in the lead stepped aside and said, "This way."


    Li Guo Er followed after them with an expression of disbelief. Could it be that their emperor had really woken up? Is that true? Li Guo Er did not believe that their Hulk''s Pearl Flower did not have an antidote, not at all!

 C343

    "Jiu Er!" After returning to the residence, Xi Jiu Er washed up and decided to sleep after reading some books. The Prince Xian sat in front of her and solemnly said, "I feel that we need to change the way we interact, you agree to give me a chance, but you push me far away.


    Xi Jiu Er was startled for a moment, then asked: "What do you mean?"


    "We should eat and sleep together like real couples!" Prince Xian interrupted him right before Xi Jiu Er could speak, "Since you want me to give up, then just do as I say. If my method doesn''t work, then it only means that you really don''t have any feelings for me."


    "But ¡­" In the end, Xi Jiu Er compromised: "Fine, I will do as you say, but you cannot touch me, otherwise I will definitely not avoid you." Just like he said, if you want him to give up, then you have to do as he says. When that time comes, I don''t have any feelings for him, so I can''t blame him.


    "I, Mu Qiu Shui, am a man of honor, don''t worry." Prince Xian coughed, "I have a secret to tell you... Are you listening? "


    Xi Jiu Er felt that the secret in her hands must definitely not be something good, but the look on Prince Xian''s face seemed to say that he had an extremely big secret, and that almost no one knew about it. Finally, unable to resist the temptation, she leaned over and asked, "Tell me, what secrets do you have?"


    "My secret is... I''m still a boy. " Prince Xian''s face did not turn red, but he continued to ask with a proud smile on his face: "How is it, are you surprised? Are you surprised? "Haha ¡­"


    "Erm, an accident is an accident. Surprise is surprise. Are you not shy?" For such a big man to actually be a virgin, it would be laughable if word of this were to spread. " Xi Jiu Er mocked, she believed that what the Prince Xian said was true, he might really be a boy! In fact, in the entire capital, the Prince Xian of the hedonistic prince had never even touched a woman before.


    "Pfft, Xi Jiu Er, you damned woman, what do I have to be embarrassed about? I leave my body to the woman I like, can''t I? "Can''t you?" Prince Xian was probably anxious, he coldly snorted and muttered: "If I knew, I wouldn''t have told you. Hmph, you actually dared to laugh at me. I, I''m too sad ¡­"


    When Xi Jiu Er saw how he knew that she had hurt him, she was very surprised. It was just that, Prince Xian only had this thought, it was said that women protect their bodies like jade, she never expected that Prince Xian would also protect their bodies like jade. What she said was only to show her panic in her heart. Prince Xian was a serious man. There shouldn''t be many men like him.


    "You, don''t be sad ¡­" I mean, I didn''t mean to laugh at you. You know, when a woman is 18 or 19 years old and never marries, she''s an old woman. "That ¡­" Xi Jiu Er didn''t know how to describe it, but Prince Xian immediately followed up: "You just want to say that I''m an old man right?"


    "No!" Xi Jiu Er rejected with one word.


    Of course, the Prince Xian was not feeling sad because Xi Jiu Er had mocked him. It was just that Xi Jiu Er, this ingrate, was actually not moved, and that was what hurt him the most! Oh my god, this Xi Jiu Er girl is good to her servant, is good to others. Why did she treat him so badly? When would this ingrate become familiar with it!? He expressed concern.


    "Sleep!" After that, he climbed onto Xi Jiu Er''s bed using both his hands and feet. He took off his outer robe and only his underwear remained on Xi Jiu Er''s body. Seeing that his actions were very natural, Xi Jiu Er actually laughed at herself for being too nervous, and continued to read her book. The Prince Xian stared at her back, staring at it and staring at it ¡­


    "Why aren''t you sleeping? Can''t you lie down and talk to me if you don''t see me sleeping?" The mournful voice of the Prince Xian came from behind Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er turned around and saw the face of the young wife of the Prince Xian.


    His heart shrank, this Prince Xian was truly as beautiful as a fairy. He said indifferently: "How would I know if you didn''t tell me? I only found out after you told me."


    "Alright then ¡­" Madame, let''s rest. " The Prince Xian''s plan was successful. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s sparkling red ears, her face was smiling like a successful thief. Xi Jiu Er was helpless, she put down the book and laid down, her body becoming a little stiff.


    "Jiu Er, let me ask you, did I know you before? Why did you come to the brothel to clean me up the first time I saw you? " In order to not make her nervous, Prince Xian told her about the past. When he thought about how he met Xi Jiu Er for the first time, he was attracted to her in his heart. In the future, he would slowly come into contact with her and realize that Xi Jiu Er did not even put her Prince Xian in his heart at all.


    He was unhappy. Since when was he so unattractive? This girl was rather pretty and had a good background. Was she doing this on purpose to attract his attention? Later on, he realized that she really didn''t like him, and now she didn''t like him either.


    "Because I don''t like you." Xi Jiu Er said snappily.


    "Have we met before?" How come I don''t remember? " Prince Xian recalled, he really could not remember when he saw Xi Jiu Er, and no matter how hard he thought, he could not understand it.


    "Me? At that time, I was akin to an ant in your eyes. Xi Jiu Er laughed sinisterly, recalling the blurry memories of her previous life, she snorted coldly: "In your eyes, there is only the incomparably beautiful Xi Wan Rong, and it is as if the heavens gave birth to you all, and what about me? to be played by you, deceived and humiliated. "


    Prince Xian was startled: "When did I only have eyes for Xi Wan Rong? I can''t even remember what she looks like right now, nor do I have the time to play around with you.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned her head and coldly stared at Prince Xian, making him speechless. She had no impression of what Xi Jiu Er said, so it was basically impossible for him to do it, but that kind of questioning gaze seemed to be what he called it. Xi Jiu Er would not use those words to deceive him, what she said was true. But it was all wrong, he wasn''t doing well at all!


    "You, you''re talking nonsense." Prince Xian said helplessly.


    "Yes, I was talking nonsense. It was like a dream. Do you know why I hate you? I had a very, very long dream. In my dream, you liked Xi Wan Rong and abandoned me like a shoe. Knowing that I liked you, you actually humiliated me in front of so many people. Xi Jiu Er thought back to her previous life and felt like she was in a dream. It had been a very long dream, and now that she thought about it, she felt an indescribable pain in her heart.

 C344

    "Ugh ¡­" It''s all just a dream. It can''t be real. " "Look, all I''m thinking of is you. There''s only one person in my eyes, and that''s cow dung in the eyes of beautiful people, you can''t even cut into my flowers, truly."


    Xi Jiu Er was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as she replied, "You mean, I''m talking about cow dung."


    "Of course, without cow dung, my flower would have withered and died ¡­" When the Prince Xian said this, he couldn''t help but hold Xi Jiu Er tightly as if they were crying in grief. His voice moved Xi Jiu Er''s heart, "Jiu Er, if you don''t like me, I will die. Just thinking about how you don''t like me makes me feel sick. "


    Since ancient times, the word ''love'' had always been said to harm people. Her personality was very cold, and every time she had a deep relationship, she would deliberately suppress it. He would cry, he would be sad, but he would also feel a pain that made him wish that he was dead. However, he had never thought about dying. Prince Xian''s beautiful face could not be seen, but it was possible that she could feel that he was serious.


    "What exactly do you like about me? I can change it... " Xi Jiu Er stuttered: "Your days are quite beautiful, and you seem to be of high position and authority, with extraordinary beauties. There are so many beauties in the world waiting for you to enjoy them ¡­ Why would you want to die so easily? If I were you, I would definitely hug you and watch those beauties dance for me and make me happy. En ¡­ It''s a good evening, so we can all come together ¡­ "Think how wonderful it would be."


    The more Prince Xian heard her words, the angrier he got. He didn''t know whether to laugh or cry, and his heart felt both uncomfortable and funny. His voice was very firm. If all women were so ungrateful, then what would a man do? Listen, they all came at once. It would be such a loss if she could think of something like this.


    Xi Jiu Er was very much in favor: "Hmm, I also feel that if I were a man, I would definitely be very flowery. But I think those beauties probably don''t like me! "


    Prince Xian was startled: "Why?" Even a proud and arrogant woman like Xi Wan Feng had fallen for her, let alone another woman?


    "Cough ¡­" Because I was at the foot of the bed... No... That exercise was too much work, I was definitely tired to the point of becoming a dog. " Xi Jiu Er''s face reddened. It was extremely easy for her to be together with Prince Xian, she could say anything to him, any kind of joke, it was extremely satisfying.


    "Pfft ¡ª Hahaha, hahaha ¡­" Jiu Er, you are too funny ¡­ " Prince Xian was greatly taken aback, not only was Xi Jiu Er not even able to finish his sentence, she even said some words that were not even worth mentioning, which allowed him to completely sweep away her previous depression. How could he not like such an interesting Xi Jiu Er?


    "What are you laughing at? What I said was not wrong. How tired are you? If you can''t satisfy them, will they still like me?" "No way ¡­" Xi Jiu Er''s glistening eyes revealed a look of loveliness as she looked at Prince Xian in puzzlement. She felt that she wasn''t wrong, and thought that there must be a reason behind the women climbing the wall to become Hong Xing.


    "Jiu Er, it''s better for you to become a woman, so you don''t have to be tired." Prince Xian slowly stopped laughing. Xi Jiu Er''s face was faintly discernable in the candlelight, her autumn water eyes were truly beautiful, it was extremely difficult to find such a woman, especially a woman with ungrateful eyes. It was really hard to find such a thing.


    "Jiu Er..."


    "Yes."


    "How many months have you been a child for?"


    "..." "I don''t know ¡­"


    "Truly heartless." Prince Xian rolled his eyes. Xi Jiu Er was curious, why did it have to do with being heartless, it had almost become his catchphrase. This sleep was an unbearable night for Xi Jiu Er. The beautiful woman was his beloved woman, and he was a normal man. However, Xi Jiu Er didn''t know that she was sleeping very freely, and wasn''t afraid that the man beside him would turn into a wolf and deal with him.


    Prince Xian stared at the woman beside him, feeling both angry and happy. In this kind of life, he had often imagined how his and Xi Jiu Er''s married life would be like. How about quarrelling or flirting? How would she react after a quarrel? What if it was night?


    When he thought about the charming and wonderful scene, the Prince Xian couldn''t help but think about it. The ingrate was a wolf after all. Fierce people could kill them. Sigh ¡­ He had sighed in his heart who knew how many times, but he felt that he was pitiful in regards to Xi Jiu Er''s level of trust in him, could it be that in her heart, he was the same as a woman? Or was he like a blood brother? She should at least be a little shy ¡­


    When Prince Xian thought about it again and again, not only did he sigh that the woman he had set his eyes on was not an ordinary person, at least his brain wasn''t something an ordinary person could think about. He fell asleep unconsciously ¡­ There was a pregnant woman by his side. He could not be as restrained as he usually was. He woke up in the morning and felt a pain all over his body.


    "What is it? It''s very uncomfortable? " Xi Jiu Er asked: "Did I do anything to you last night?"


    There was something wrong with his words, but he couldn''t pinpoint what it was. Prince Xian swung his arms and stretched his shoulders as he said in a bad mood, "Aren''t you afraid of pressuring you and your child?


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart warmed. She went over to pinch him, causing Prince Xian to be overwhelmed by the favor. Immediately, Xi Jiu Er felt touched beyond the boundaries of heaven and earth, and her attacks became a bit heavier: "Say it again, I''ll bite you to death again."


    "Bite! My skin is thick, so I''m not afraid ¡­" Ouch ¡­ My little ancestor, you have to be a bit more gentle, it''s so painful that it''s killing me. " Prince Xian took a deep breath, and bit down on Xi Jiu Er''s shoulder. He was in so much pain that he almost slapped Xi Jiu Er hard, and when he turned his head to see Xi Jiu Er smiling like a little fox, the pain did not count for much.


    "Hmph, next time you make me unhappy, I''ll bite you to death." As he spoke, he raised his chin high up like a victor, making him feel like he didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. Staring at her back, the light in his eyes seemed to turn into gentle water as he shouted, "Wow, I''m not afraid!"


    "Fine, let''s see if your skin is thicker than mine or not." had already started to dress her up. Seeing that she was in a good mood, he asked with a smile: "Madame is so happy."


    "Of course, we ate human flesh." Xi Jiu Er smiled. Dong Zhu didn''t know what she was talking about, but she was happy as well. Dong Zhu had a pair of delicate hands that could twist her hair into a beautiful shape. liked it a lot.


    "Madame!" Liu Shui''s voice could be heard as she appeared while chewing on a steaming bun: "Servant has already found out that Liu Xiang is indeed in the palace, but the palace is very big, and Servant can only find some clues, and not some people."

 C345

    With that, he gave Xi Jiu Er a piece of clothing, and when Xi Jiu Er opened it, she realized it was a palace maid''s robe. It was not unusual, but from the looks of it, it was different from a needle. This robe was sewn by the person who came to mend it. Although the style was identical to the palace maid''s robe, the fabric was different. Liu Shui took out another piece of broken footsteps from his bosom. As Xi Jiu Er held it in her hands, she felt that this material was a little rough, not soft at all.


    Xi Jiu Er seemed to be deep in thought, and only after a long time did she say: "As long as you can confirm that she''s in the palace, that''s good. I hope she''s safe." Liu Xiang and Xi Hong Sheng were even more intimate than the latter. Liu Xiang had always taken care of her own daily necessities, taking care of herself to the extreme. She must have her reasons for doing so now. She would support her for any reason, and she would help her if she needed it. She owed Liu Xiang a lot ¡­


    During breakfast, an imperial decree had come that the Prince Xian and the Mrs. IX would be invited to the palace. The Emperor would set up a banquet to entertain all the ministers. However, not everyone was invited. The names that the eunuch called out were what Xi Jiu Er remembered, and were probably Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s trusted aides.


    "Yesterday night, the emperor went to interrogate the servant called Li Guo Er, only to find out that Li Guo Er was missing. Right now, the emperor was looking for Li Guo Er everywhere, but there was no news of him! Xi Jiu Er and Prince Xian looked at each other. Was this a mistake? There had to be a spy.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was holding a banquet this time?


    "Alright, let''s go over tonight." Prince Xian replied as the people beside him gave rewards to the eunuch. The eunuch beamed with joy and thanked them before returning to the palace. Xi Jiu Er was tongue-tied as she ate. "Everyone says that the imperial palace''s heavenly prison is heavily guarded, yet there''s no one this big? This Sky Prison is nothing. "


    Prince Xian did not reply. Xi Jiu Er glanced at him and said softly, "If I don''t want to go to the Imperial Palace, can you just say that I''m sick?" When she saw Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, she felt terrible all over. Her past memories were still stuck in her mind, she did not want to see him angering her.


    "Don''t you like the ''sauce, duck tongue''? The kitchen of the palace was the most authentic one. Other than the ''Jam Fragrance Duck Tongue'', there were also the ''Crystal East Mountain'', ''Fruit Meat and Elemental Meat'', ''Imperial Concubine Drunk'', and so on ¡­ Don''t you want to have a taste of what you haven''t eaten? " A while ago at the Imperial Palace, Xi Jiu Er was bitten by the imperial chef. Now, whenever she mentioned Xi Jiu Er, he felt hungry, and the porridge and small dishes on the table became inedible too.


    You and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge will meet sooner or later! What can I do to you with me here? " Prince Xian moved closer and asked tentatively, "You don''t want to see him so much, is it because he did something to you, such as he ¡­"


    Before Prince Xian could even finish his sentence, he was ruthlessly bitten by Xi Jiu Er. Looking at the eight teeth marks on the back of his hand, he said in amusement, "You are a human, not a dog."


    "You''re the dog." Xi Jiu Er blinked her sweet lips, her pink tongue looked extremely cute, "What did you rub on your hands for? Why does it have a weird taste?"


    "Of course it''s covered with a tender rouge paste. The color isn''t bright and the smell is pleasant. Do you want me to give you some? It''s not bad at all." The Prince Xian shamelessly placed both her hands in front of Xi Jiu Er, causing Xi Jiu Er to hurriedly wave his hands, "I don''t want it, you can use it yourself.


    "You''re really thick-skinned."


    "You''re not even a man yet you''re smearing rouge on your face ¡­"


    At night, Prince Xian dressed Xi Jiu Er up. Xi Jiu Er, who was in all three layers, looked very tired, and when she saw Prince Xian instructing servants to dress him up, and making himself look like the most popular woman in the world, she swore. Not long after, a peony like lady appeared in front of everyone''s eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at herself in shock. She had to admit that the woman in front of him was definitely beautiful, and carried a noble aura with her. In addition to that, with Xi Jiu Er''s usual cold face, it wouldn''t be excessive to guess that she was the Empress.


    "Looks good, it really is excellent." Prince Xian turned in front of Xi Jiu Er, praising him continuously: "It''s not a lie that she relies on her clothes to wear Buddhist clothes, it''s just that she''s talking about a normal looking girl like you."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed: "Yes, I am beautiful like a willow leaf, you should change me, so that I won''t embarrass the king. After all, a crow with gorgeous feathers is still a crow. It can''t become a phoenix. "


    "Madame, stop messing around with the Prince. In the eyes of the Servant, you and the Prince are the most compatible." Madame, stop messing around with the Prince. Dong Zhu laughed: "Servant has seen it all."


    "Dong Zhu, you can talk." The Prince Xian gave Dong Zhu a praising look, and Dong Zhu pursed her lips into a smile: "Your highness, you should also go and change into a new set of clothes.


    "What did you just say?" Prince Xian was stunned.


    Dong Zhu was shocked, she then realised that the ''national beauty fragrance'' was just a description of a girl, she had never read the books and quickly used words to describe her. Xi Jiu Er turned his head and said: "I was saying that you look like an unparalleled military fan, hurry up and change into a set of clothes."


    "Good job, Madame." Prince Xian had the skill, how could he not understand what Dong Zhu was saying. He originally wanted to joke around with the servant girl, but later on he realised that the servant girl could not make a joke out of him, and had scared him.


    Prince Xian was still dressed in fiery red robes, thinking of the golden edges, his robes sketching out many golden-edged white flowers, making him look luxurious. Xi Jiu Er had never seen a man wear red so beautifully. It was truly beautiful.


    "How is it, are you enchanted by me? "Huh?" As a man, of course, he would like her to look at him. He was amazed, as if he couldn''t even match up to her words after receiving the praise of the entire world. The smile on her face became even more beautiful, such a man like Xi Jiu Er said from the bottom of her heart: Mhm, very beautiful, I was captivated by you.


    Xi Jiu Er''s Honest Prince Xian was even happier now. Xi Jiu Er was not stingy with her praise, it was the happiest thing to do.


    The banquet was not big, there were about twenty people present and Xi Jiu Er was the only female. Her disguise today had attracted many people''s attention. Prince Xian was also extremely proud as he chatted with the person who had arrived.


    "I''m going out for a bit." Xi Jiu Er came over and whispered.


    "Do you want me to accompany you?" Prince Xian asked.


    "No need." Xi Jiu Er''s face reddened, and she left with Dong Zhu.


    "The relationship between Prince Xian and yourself is really good." These ministers were all Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s trusted aides. This time, Prince Xian''s actions had made them like the prince even more, and they were also grateful to Xi Jiu Er.


    On this side, Xi Jiu Er held the purse given to her by the palace maid, the stitches on it were so familiar, how could she not recognize that the bag in her hand was from Liu Xiang''s hands? Liu Xiang is in the palace? What was she doing in the palace?

 C346

    Xi Jiu Er followed the palace maid to an elegant room, inside sat a beautiful young girl. Although she was dressed as a palace maid, she recognized her face even if she turned into ashes: "Liu Xiang ¡ª"


    "Miss!" It was much colder than the passionate woman from Xi Jiu Er. She pointed to the chair and said: "Please take a seat Miss. If Miss wants to know, she will tell Miss everything."


    Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth, but was unable to say anything. She sat on the chair and took a deep breath, as if she had a thousand things she wanted to ask, but in the end, she could not.


    The lady stood up, picked up the teapot and walked over: "Servant has prepared the tea that we like the most for Miss, can we please drink it while we speak?"


    "Alright." Xi Jiu Er lifted the teacup and looked at Liu Xiang without paying him any attention as she asked, "Liu Xiang, why are you in the palace? What are you doing in the palace? Didn''t I see you die? Could that person be a fake? "Do you know how much I miss you ¡­" She could not suppress the grief and sorrow in her heart. Tears streamed down, but she smiled and said, "It''s good as long as you are fine. It''s good as long as you are fine."


    "Miss suddenly asked Servant what he had received from so many other Servant s." The woman smiled.


    "Hehe, I was too anxious." Nodding her head, Xi Jiu Er let go of this thought and felt that the world had become brighter again. Looking at Liu Xiang, he felt that her vision had become more and more blurry, with a thud, she fell onto the chair.


    On this side, Prince Xian and the officials were chatting boringly, looking at the seat where Xi Jiu Er left, she was a little impatient. Wasn''t it too long now? Dong Zhu then went over to look at Xi Jiu Er''s empty seat, then looked at herself, and immediately stood up and walked over.


    "What happened?"


    "Your Highness, a palace maid just gave Madame a piece of paper. Madame followed his after she read it. Servant wanted to follow Madame and say that there''s no need, she''ll be back soon, but Servant and the others haven''t seen anyone. Dong Zhu said.


    Prince Xian''s face instantly turned cold: "Do you know where Madame went with that palace maid?"


    "Servant wasn''t at ease and carefully followed him, but he was discovered by Madame, so he''s not allowed to follow ¡­" Dong Zhu thought that since it had been such a long time since he came back, something must have happened.


    Prince Xian followed the servant to the place where Xi Jiu Er had left, thinking about the palace''s deployment map, he had a general idea of where they should be. When he found Xi Jiu Er, she was lying motionlessly on the carpet. Prince Xian rushed over to check and see if he was alright or not.


    How could she leave while hugging Xi Jiu Er? Who knew that Xi Jiu Er would actually wake up at once, and stare at her in a daze. Xi Jiu Er immediately hugged him, her eyes were as charming as autumn water, alluring and enchanting. Prince Xian hugged her body as she felt waves after waves of scorching heat coming from her body, as if she could feel her soft and tender skin from the heat.


    Xi Jiu Er''s cheeks were blushing, her beauty shining through. Her eyes were watery as she stared fixedly at Prince Xian. Prince Xian was stunned for a moment.


    She was drugged? He was curious in his heart, Xi Jiu Er was a very vigilant person, he actually drugged her. Who was it, who made her put down her guard?


    Xi Jiu Er had already started to twist and turn in his embrace, her face becoming more and more red, and her Qi becoming more and more dense. From time to time, she would make a sound that a man would not be able to control, causing Prince Xian to not even dare to move at all. [In front of the woman I love, that man doesn''t want to do anything? Prince Xian took a deep breath. Let''s get them to a safe place first.


    Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er spasmed while tightly hugging his body, after which she let out a comfortable sound, making the Prince Xian feel extremely awkward in order to save you. The figure of the person in her embrace was exquisite, and was releasing that kind of sound again. Prince Xian felt his rationality crumbling bit by bit.


    Then, he thought about Xi Jiu Er''s temper. If she really did something to her, sshe would definitely be in trouble in the future. Hugging Xi Jiu Er, he quickly ran out. Dong Zhu was overjoyed, and looking at Xi Jiu Er''s expression, she asked anxiously, "What happened to Madame?"


    Prince Xian said indifferently: "She... It''s the Chinese medicine. " He then hurriedly ordered his eunuchs to report to the emperor that he had returned to his residence. On the carriage, Dong Zhu watched as Xi Jiu Er wrapped herself with the Prince Xian and then followed the coachman.


    "Jiu Er? Jiu Er? " Prince Xian tried to awaken Xi Jiu Er''s rationality and tried to look for the small porcelain bottle that Xi Jiu Er often used, but he couldn''t find it at all. He knocked on the walls of the carriage and asked, "Have you seen Madame''s small porcelain bottles?"


    "No!" Dong Zhu''s voice carried along with the sound of the wind.


    "Dammit ¡­" Prince Xian thought that Xi Jiu Er''s actions made the pill abnormal, it was tyrannical, and had actually managed to confuse Jiu Er''s mind, it was truly bizarre!


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Xi Jiu Er hugged her stomach and cried out in pain, "It hurts, it hurts ¡­"


    Prince Xian was frightened out of his wits and immediately asked: "Jiu Er, does your stomach hurt?" Damn it, he should have called the imperial physician over to watch. It would be too late to go back! Looking at her captivating red lips, Prince Xian immediately leaned over and kissed it! Xi Jiu Er was like a thirsty person meeting a water source, he extended his arms and fiercely hugged Prince Xian. Prince Xian gulped: "Gentle, softer ¡­"


    When Xi Jiu Er woke up, she was a little confused. She didn''t know where she was, and thought back to when she went to see Liu Xiang. Then... There was no ''after'', it was here that she woke up.


    "Madame, you''re awake?" When Dong Zhu saw that Xi Jiu Er had woken up, she said joyfully, "You fainted in the palace last night. It was Prince Xian who found you and carried you back."


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er kept feeling that it was more than just this, but she couldn''t think of anything else. After letting Dong Zhu clean herself up, the person eating breakfast saw that the Prince Xian had also arrived. She glanced at the Prince Xian''s face and almost spurted out his food: "What happened to your face?"


    There was more than a scratch on that gorgeous face, even if she smeared it with medicine, it would still show! Today, Prince Xian had worn clothes so tight that not even wind could pass through, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was weird.


    "Wasn''t it you who grabbed it? Last night, you were drugged, and I don''t know where you started but you started scratching and biting me. You scared me to death, just like a dog." Prince Xian shuddered in fear as if he had thought of something terrifying. Xi Jiu Er looked at his fingernail and sure enough, there were signs of breaking ¡­ She didn''t doubt his presence in her heart. She felt extremely sorry for him. "I''m sorry, I didn''t mean to ¡­"


    "Forget it, forget it. Back then, what else could I have done when I saw you in such a difficult situation?" "However, you can''t go out for the next few days. If others see my man, then don''t even think about losing face." Prince Xian impatiently sat down and let the servants serve him food.


    "I''m sorry ¡­" Xi Jiu Er felt very guilty.


    "Never mind, who did you see last night?"


    "Liu Xiang..."


    "Liu Xiang? Your servant girl? But in reality, I didn''t trick you? "


    "No, it''s a real person."

 C347

    Liu Xiang, I can help you no matter what you''re doing. That unfamiliar yet distant face appeared in her mind, causing Xi Jiu Er to instantly feel like her chest was blocked by a huge rock. Seeing that, Feng Qing Cheng felt extremely uncomfortable, and said gently: "Jiu Er, I''ll go find that servant girl for you."


    Then, the bad news came. When the palace caught ''Li Guo Er'', Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge ordered for the person to be brought up, but the result was that it was somewhat familiar. Before he could figure out who it was, that ''Li Guo Er'' had crashed into a pillar and died. The moment they collided, Xi Jiu Er''s figure flashed past her mind, and the face of the servant standing behind her, wasn''t it the person in front of her?


    He immediately sent someone to find Xi Jiu Er. Upon hearing him, Xi Jiu Er''s face turned snow-white, and fell onto the chair, she stared blankly in front of him. Liu Xiang''s expression and smile appeared in his mind, and sadness filled his heart: Liu Xiang ¡­ Sobbing through the pain in his throat, his vision turned dark and he fainted.


    Prince Xian did not think that Xi Jiu Er and Lui''s relationship with the servant was so close, and anxiously asked the doctor to come over to take a look. The doctor said that he was too angry, and would wake up soon after.


    At night, when Xi Jiu Er woke up, she looked at Prince Xian blankly and thought of the news of Liu Xiang''s death. What caused Prince Xian to be astonished was that Xi Jiu Er only momentarily revealed a sorrowful expression, and his remaining expression slowly turned calm. Prince Xian knew that she was intentionally putting on a brave front, and was extremely saddened for Xi Jiu Er: "Jiu Er, if you want to cry, just cry. Don''t hold everything in."


    "No need." Taking a deep breath, Xi Jiu Er said with a bland smile, "This is Liu Xiang''s own choice ¡­"


    "Jiu Er..." Prince Xian still wanted to say something, but Xi Jiu Er was startled and said: "Liu Xiang has always been following me, always being obedient and obedient. "I originally planned to find a marriage for her when the opportunity presented itself and marry her. Her child was raised by my child ¡­"


    Prince Xian extended her finger out to wipe it, then suddenly stood up and revealed a fierce look in his eyes, "I want to find Li Guo Er, there must be a reason why Liu Xiang is looking for her, she is protecting Li Guo Er like this ¡­"


    "I''ll help you." The Prince Xian replied hurriedly.


    "No need." Xi Jiu Er shouted: "Liu Shui!"


    After a long while, she finally saw Liu Shui coming over. Her eyes were red like she had cried before as she looked at Xi Jiu Er in silence. However, Xi Jiu Er''s mind was full of thinking about the relationship between Li Guo Er and Liu Xiang, and had never paid attention to it.


    "Liu Shui, I have a bell with me for you. As long as you have Li Guo Er''s area of effect, the bell will ring. You must find her for me, okay?" Liu Shui instructed. Liu Shui nodded his head and said fiercely, "Madame, I will definitely bring Li Guo Er here."


    Prince Xian felt that the bell in Xi Jiu Er''s hand looked so familiar, wasn''t it the bell on Li Guo Er''s waist that was being held in? It seemed to be a pair.


    "This is a mother bell. I came here on a whim." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. She had picked up this bell when Liu Shui and the others were fighting, it was extremely small and delicate, and the sound of the bell was pleasant to the ear but small, Xi Jiu Er immediately liked the patterns on it. She originally wanted to return it to Li Guo Er, but he did not know why she had left it there. It was indeed useful today.


    Prince Xian did not believe her words. Li Guo Er''s skill was very high, so normal people would not even be able to get close to him, let alone steal something close to his body. Xi Jiu Er sat on the chair and waited for news. Around fifteen minutes later, Liu Xiang''s corpse was sent over.


    When Xi Jiu Er closed his eyes and opened them again, her expression was already calm. There was a girl on the shelf beside her feet, it was such a familiar face, but she would never laugh, or cry, or call him Miss, or serve him ¡­


    Liu Xiang laid there quietly, it was as though nothing could disturb her, but there was a hint of worry on her beautiful face, as though there was something that made her sad. The blood stains on her forehead seemed to have been cleaned up by someone, and her clothes also seemed to have been cleaned up by someone.


    Xi Jiu Er instructed the servants to bring Liu Xiang to her own room too. She also ordered Dong Zhu to prepare a set of clothes for herself, which were a bit smaller. Dong Zhu silently went to find Xi Jiu Er''s clothes... Seeing Xi Jiu Er taking off Liu Xiang''s clothes one by one, her body became stiff, but she dragged it very carefully, Dong Zhu wanted to grab hold of Xi Jiu Er and stop her, "Liu Xiang has served me for a lifetime, but I have never served her before. Today, let me serve her properly."


    Dong Zhu choked with emotions, and silently retreated to the side.


    Liu Xiang''s body was a little thin, and she had to supplement her by a lot in order to have today''s result. Her skin was very white and delicate, just like those Golden Miss s. After the fruit had been taken out, Xi Jiu Er used a towel to wet her body to wash. Her eyes were extremely gentle, and from her face to her feet, Xi Jiu Er did not look down at all.


    He then donned all of his robes one by one. had spent a lot of time and effort to put them on, but by the time he was done, he was already out of breath. In the end, he washed his hair and carefully combed it with a wooden comb. Only after he had combed it well did he comb his hair repeatedly.


    Xi Jiu Er washed again and again, and after using the incense for awhile, she finally pulled back Liu Xiang''s hair. The few times she came down, it didn''t matter whether it was tied up or not, she kept trying to not feel any impatience. In the end, she was finally able to get on her good side. She was extremely beautiful.


    Dong Zhu picked out her accessories the best. After packing them up, four hours had already passed. Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Xiang, and said sorrowfully: "Silly girl, I have everything, why haven''t you come to find me? We are like sisters, am I that untrustworthy in your heart? Why do you have to be so foolish... "I know that you definitely don''t want to serve me anymore. Otherwise, how could you not come and meet me?"


    "Liu Xiang... "If you go like this, I''ll be lonely, lonely and miserable ¡­"


    "I was still hoping that when the child was born, you would tell the story, tell the jokes, and cook the food ¡­" He must be very happy ¡­ "


    "Liu Xiang, tell me, what secrets do you have that I don''t know about? You grow up with me, we grow up together... What secret makes you abandon me? En ¡­ "It must be a huge secret ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er talked nonstop, the Prince Xian stood silently at the entrance, and there were two people standing in the courtyard: one Liu Shui and the other Li Guo Er. Xi Jiu Er stopped talking inside the house. Other than her eyes which were slightly red, no one noticed anything strange when the door was pushed open.


    Xi Jiu Er sat in the main seat, staring at the miserable looking Li Guo Er: "Why would Liu Xiang want to die for you, what exactly does this have to do with your Hulk."

 C348

    Li Guo Er bit his lips as he hesitated for even a moment before speaking up, "There is a bloodline in the Hulk that is spread outside, but I am not very clear on the specifics. It is said that the mission of this bloodline is to help the people of the imperial family go through fire and water, and give up their lives when their lives are in danger."


    Jiu Er''s brain exploded. Liu Xiang had that blood in him? Liu Xiang had followed her for so many years, but she had never known about the secrets that were on Liu Xiang''s body. She had never found out about''s background from him, so even if she found out, she could not bear to abandon her ¡­ In fact, she had already done so! Who told Liu Xiang that? Or did Liu Xiang already know of her background? Could it be that she was already waiting for Li Guo Er at the palace ¡­


    Li Guo Er''s face was full of guilt, and she blamed herself deeply: "I do not wish for her to die for me, I would rather die than die." When she entered the palace, she had already held onto the possibility that it was the Song family ¡­


    "What''s the use of saying all this? "People are already dead. They died for you." Xi Jiu Er closed her eyes and did not want to look at Li Guo Er anymore: "You can leave, I do not want to see you again, Liu Xiang gave up his life for you, your servant girl gave up her life for you, I hope you can call her that."


    "That... "Don''t you ask me what?" Li Guo Er asked.


    Xi Jiu Er closed her eyes in silence: "There''s no need, I already know what I should know."


    Li Guo Er kowtowed to Xi Jiu Er and kowtowed to him, "Madame, if I am still alive, as long as I do not disobey morals, I can do one thing for you."


    Xi Jiu Er who had his eyes closed slowly opened them and looked at Li Guo Er. A plan quickly flashed through her mind as she sneered: "Okay, I want you to marry Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, do you agree?" As soon as she said that, all the Prince Xian people understood ¡­ Staring at Xi Jiu Er thoughtfully, Li Guo Er looked over in astonishment.


    "Why?"


    "Your second prince wants to take back everything that belongs to himself, right? If he had the support of the Daxing Emperor, it would not be an easy task, and at that time the Hulk and the Daxing would form an alliance, wouldn''t that be beautiful? " Xi Jiu Er seemed to have forgotten about Liu Xiang''s death, her face had regained the color of her past, but the hatred in her eyes was like a chrysalis, ready to burst out from its cocoon at any time.


    "But, if I am like this ¡­" Li Guo Er hesitated.


    "You''ve already failed on this side, so of course the other side will have collapsed. Do you think you have a choice?"


    Li Guo Er finally agreed and wanted to write a letter. Xi Jiu Er had already achieved her goal, as for what they were planning to do next, it was not her concern. Xi Jiu Er cremated Liu Xiang and gave her the ashes, so that she could think of a way to bring them back to Hu Ke Ren.


    came over and said that he had found something inside her clothes. Xi Jiu Er asked suspiciously: "Which piece of clothes?"


    "It''s the one that Madame was wearing when she entered the palace." Dong Zhu said.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart skipped a beat and she quickly opened it. The words written crookedly on top: Miss, I can''t serve you anymore, you have to take care of myself and the little gongzi. No matter what happens to Liu Xiang, don''t be angry at him, because it''s Liu Xiang''s own choice. Miss said goodbye.


    This was written with a brocade handkerchief, it was Liu Xiang''s handwriting, Liu Xiang ¡­ Liu Xiang... Xi Jiu Er finally started to bawl loudly, it was still her Liu Xiang, and it was still her Liu Xiang. In Liu Xiang''s heart, there was still her ¡­


    "Ah ¡ª Liu Xiang, you actually let me go, you actually let me go, and let me live in poverty in this world. Liu Xiang... " Pressing the silk handkerchief to her cheek as if it were a treasure, Xi Jiu Er was unable to suppress her grief. Dong Zhu also cried out: "Madame, be careful of the child in your womb.


    "Liu Xiang is so ruthless, she doesn''t want me anymore ¡­" Xi Jiu Er felt that what she was crying was not tears but blood.


    Prince Xian had just returned from the palace, and he was startled by Xi Jiu Er''s crying. When had he ever seen Xi Jiu Er crying like this? He rushed in and saw Xi Jiu Er trembling as he held onto Dong Zhu. Dong Zhu carefully supported her, and the moment she saw Prince Xian, he saw her savior. "My prince, please think of a way. Madame has already been crying for a long time, and has always said that no one wants her anymore ¡­"


    After Dong Zhu finished speaking, she also started to wail, causing Xi Jiu Er to look at her while crying, completely at a loss. Prince Xian secretly kicked Dong Zhu, this girl must be here to cause trouble. After being kicked by the Prince Xian in such a manner, Dong Zhu was unable to catch her breath, and almost choked herself to death.


    "Stay by the side." The Prince Xian signalled to Dong Zhu with his eyes and Dong Zhu quietly withdrew herself. The Prince Xian took Xi Jiu Er''s arm as if he was a baby, "Why does no one want you? I want you, and the baby in your belly, too. Wherever you go, we can get you back. "


    Xi Jiu Er was just about to say something in shock, but the tears on her face didn''t seem to be able to be pitied. Hearing Prince Xian''s words again, he cried sorrowfully, as if he was a child.


    Dong Zhu shot Prince Xian a glance, looking a bit like someone offending him: "Look, you pissed me off again, it''s all because of you". Prince Xian pretended not to see it, as he hugged Xi Jiu Er and coaxed, "Don''t cry, don''t cry ¡­ "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er took the opportunity to hug Prince Xian, and burrowed her head into his firm chest. Suddenly, she felt the urge to cry hysterically, and followed suit. Prince Xian simply picked her up and sat on his lap, hiding her in his embrace. He stopped coaxing Xi Jiu Er, and only spoke to her bulging abdomen: "Shame, look at your mother! There are many people here, but you still cry.


    "Oh my baby, listen, your mother is crying, aiyo ¡­ Woo woo woo ¡­ * Wu wu wu ¡­ Doesn''t it sound like the wind? What? Doesn''t look like it? Like La Erhu? "No, I think a dog is barking."


    Xi Jiu Er was very suspicious, and asked while sobbing, "Why ¡­ "Wuu wuu, why are you barking like a dog?"


    "Didn''t you hear that dog is usually ''wuwuwuwuwu''?" Prince Xian looked at Xi Jiu Er strangely. "Why don''t we raise a dog and be friends with children in the future?"


    "Wuu ¡­" "Dogs, isn''t it too early ¡­" Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were red and swollen. In Prince Xian''s eyes, she was extremely beautiful, because a Xi Jiu Er like her trusted him with her entire body and mind, and had revealed her truest and truest side. He greedily looked at Xi Jiu Er''s current appearance. He wanted to remember this in his head for the rest of his life.


    "No, it''s not early. You''ll be giving birth in five to six months. By then, the puppy will be half grown ¡­" As for how big the puppy was, he didn''t know. The real thing was to divert Xi Jiu Er''s attention.


    Xi Jiu Er tilted her head as she fell into a deep slumber. Prince Xian''s coaxing voice came into her ears, "Go to sleep, I''ll be by your side. When you wake up, you''ll be able to see me ¡­"

 C349

    Xi Jiu Er slowly fell asleep in Prince Xian''s arms. Her small face that was the size of a palm had traces of tears on it, and she looked extremely pitiful and touching. Holding the soft body in his arms and smelling the alluring fragrance of the woman''s body, he felt as if she possessed the entire world.


    After a long while, Prince Xian still held onto her without letting go. Helpless, she finally put Xi Jiu Er on the bed to let her have a comfortable sleep. Gazing at her familiar sleeping face, Su Mei''s long eyelashes trembled ¡­ Prince Xian felt that he couldn''t see enough of his face, and the more he looked, the more he liked it.


    When would this ingrate ever be able to cover his hot spot! When the Prince Xian thought of the long journey, he felt uncomfortable. Gritting his teeth, he stared at Xi Jiu Er, wishing he could give her a good beating. After a long while, seeing that her small face had already turned soft, he could only silently sigh and lament.


    After adjusting his robes, Prince Xian stood up and asked Liu Shui: "Come with me."


    Outside, the Prince Xian asked in a low voice, "What did you want to say just now?"


    Liu Shui was startled, but after thinking about it, he finally understood what the Prince Xian was saying. He shook his head and pursed his lips: "The Servant did not think of anything." Since she had already said that he would be loyal to Jiu Er, what should be done, and what should be said must not be said carelessly.


    The Prince Xian looked at Liu Shui without saying a word. Liu Shui gave a silly smile, "My prince, if there''s nothing else, the Servant will be going down now."


    "Go down." The Prince Xian said indifferently.


    When Xi Jiu Er woke up, she saw a person lying beside him. The Prince Xian who had just fallen asleep did not have the evil phoenix eyes, her entire face looked exceptionally beautiful. Xi Jiu Er felt that her thoughts were very funny. When Prince Xian looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, she grinned.


    "Is he deeply enchanted by my heroic bearing?" Prince Xian thought that he had revealed a smile that could overturn the masses, and it caused Xi Jiu Er to roll her eyes. "Don''t be so narcissistic, I don''t feel anything from your face just by looking at it." Feng Qing Cheng and him were both peerless beauties, so after watching for a long time, he did not feel much about it.


    Prince Xian''s face stiffened as he laughed in embarrassment: "You, this woman''s ¡­"


    In the Wind Nation''s Imperial Palace, Feng Qing Cheng impatiently waved his hand and dismissed the servant''s report. Meng Ru Yan sat at the side and looked at him in ridicule, as if he was laughing at the words he had boasted earlier. Look, it was all for naught in the end!


    "Mrs. IX ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng read the words in a playful manner, her mind was thinking about something else. Meng Ru Yan said snappily: "Now that the people of Hulk made the wrong move, what do we do next?"


    "What do you think Jiu Er and that Mu Qiu Shui are doing all day?" Feng Qing Cheng asked unhappily. Meng Ru Yan facepalmed, "Our problem now isn''t because of what they did in a day, it''s because Jiu Er cured them. Now we have lost the support of the Hulk."


    Feng Qing Cheng was obviously provoked by the ''Mrs. IX'', and said without a care: "If it is lost, then it is lost."


    Meng Ru Yan sighed and rubbed the center of his brows. Why did Feng Qing Cheng become so talkative the moment he met Xi Jiu Er? He did not look like a normal person at all! The butler from outside came over and told the two that the person from the Palace was here, and told Feng Qing Cheng to enter the Palace immediately.


    Feng Qing Cheng smiled lazily: "Alright, let them wait." Seeing his expression, Meng Ru Yan was afraid that he had already guessed something was amiss, he waved his butler away and asked: "What happened?"


    This old fogey has some ability, he actually found out that I had connections with Chu Ge through rattan trees, and then found out that I was causing a ruckus in front of the emperor just for the sake of her disfigurement. Say that I pretended to look like Feng Qing Cheng, I am fake. " Feng Qing Cheng couldn''t help but stroke his smooth and recovered face, feeling grateful towards Xi Jiu Er. If she hadn''t given him the medicine in advance, how could the wound on his face have recovered so quickly?


    "Oh?" Meng Ru Yan asked: "What are you going to do next?"


    "My seventh brother has been living in seclusion. I think there must be a problem if he suddenly recovers. He''s probably disguised himself. "How can I let such a thief go?" Feng Qing Cheng took another hour before he entered the palace ''anxiously''. There were five or six ministers standing on top of the hall. They could tell with a single glance that it was the seventh brother''s subordinates. They then looked at the seventh brother who was standing on top of the hall with a confident look on his face and a sinister look flashed across his eyes.


    "This son greets royal father." Feng Qing Cheng bowed, and asked the King of Wind Nation at a moderate pace while he was still sizing him up, "Why has royal father summoned me so urgently?"


    Seventh Prince already impatiently stepped forward and said, "Royal father? "To think that you can call me that. You are not my fourth brother at all. My fourth brother is long dead, and you are just a stranger disguised as a man. Men, come! Let me lock you up as the criminal who deceives you."


    "Seventh Brother, you can eat whatever you want, but you can''t say whatever you want. I don''t even understand what you''re talking about. What you''re talking about is already dead, what you''re pretending, what you''re pretending to be. You have to explain it to me today! " Feng Qing Cheng was not angry, she folded her arms and looked at him expressionlessly.


    The Seventh Prince sneered. He had already thought of a plan in his heart, so he cupped his hands towards the Emperor and said fiercely: "Imperial Father, Fourth Brother has always been living outside the palace. We have never seen him in person. "This is the first. This son has found out that this person is most likely not Fourth Brother. He has changed his appearance to look like Fourth Brother. Perhaps Fourth Brother has already been poisoned by him and knows that this is the second!"


    "Nonsense." Feng Qing Cheng coldly laughed: "Seventh brother, there is no grievance between you and I, so why are you slandering me like this?"


    Pui, no enmity? Who said that this was a huge enmity? Seventh Prince sneered: "You have to see if you are my Fourth Brother even if you are slandering me. If Seventh Brother is kowtowing here to apologize, then if not, then this crime of deceiving the monarch will cost you your head. You should consider it."


    "Alright, since you say it like that, then I guess that I won''t be able to stop you guys from leaving if I don''t take out the evidence." Feng Qing Cheng was as steady as Mt. Tai. He crossed his arms and laughed, "Didn''t you say I changed my appearance? Alright, then get someone to take off my human skin mask and see if I''m real or not. "


    Feng Qing Cheng''s face completely came from the mother, so the two of them were very similar. If she didn''t disguise her appearance, then she wouldn''t be able to understand why there were two people who looked so similar in the world, and not just anyone could develop such an appearance.


    The Seventh Prince saw that he was fearless and wondered in his heart, could it be that the information he found was false? He immediately ordered the Imperial Physician Zhang to check if Feng Qing Cheng was wearing a human skin mask. Imperial Physician Zhang came out...

 C350

    Imperial Physician Zhang looked at Feng Qing Cheng''s pair of long and narrow eyes that were filled with limitless coldness, and immediately felt a sense of helplessness. His forehead was drenched in cold sweat, and after wiping his sweat, he cupped his hands and said: "Fourth Prince, this old man has offended you."


    "It''s fine." Feng Qing Cheng took the initiative to smile, "Imperial Physician Zhang, open your eyes wide and look carefully. If you don''t rip off this human skin mask, I will tear off your face. When that happens, don''t blame me for not giving you face."


    Since the Imperial Physician Zhang had already stepped onto the Seventh Prince''s boat, there was no room for retreat. These words caused Feng Qing Cheng to be unable to restrain the anger in her heart, and she said with a cold look on her face: "It''s still too early to say.


    Feng Qing Cheng snorted. This old fogey doesn''t even have a title right now. Imperial Physician Zhang tried her best to check Feng Qing Cheng''s face, but she couldn''t even touch anything when she stretched out her hand. His face became more and more pale, and more and more cold sweat dripped down.


    "Why haven''t we found it yet?" Compared to the human skin mask, he definitely had some tricks up his sleeves. This Imperial Physician Zhang was most likely exposed, so he immediately raised his voice and said: "Go and find Master Gu."


    "Who is this Master Gu?" the Emperor asked grimly.


    Seventh Prince hurriedly replied: "Reporting to royal father, this Master Gu knows about the disguise technique, he only needs to take a look to know. No one can escape his eyes, and it is precisely because of this son of the Master Gu that he noticed that he is wearing a human skin mask. Why did Fourth Brother wear a human skin mask? Is he not my fourth brother? "And so, your son became suspicious ¡­"


    Before he could finish, the Emperor interrupted him. "Bring the Master Gu over."


    Seventh Prince felt a surge of joy in his heart. It looked like the Emperor believed his words, this was very good. Imperial Physician Zhang walked to the back of the Seventh Prince with her head lowered, and only said in their voices: "Seventh Prince, he doesn''t seem to be wearing a human skin mask."


    The Imperial Physician Zhang was very afraid that if the Seventh Prince could succeed in this move, he would be able to enjoy eternal wealth. If he could keep the Fourth Prince under his feet, he would be able to take advantage of this to lose his life in the great hall. If he failed, the fourth prince would suffer a backlash in the future ¡­ How could Old Zhang not be afraid?


    "Hmph, he is very cunning, when the Master Gu arrives, there will be nowhere for him to hide." Seventh Prince looked at Feng Qing Cheng with a cold smile, his expression as indifferent as a torch, and only hoped that the Master Gu would hurry up and arrive.


    Feng Qing Cheng then found a place to sit down, and gracefully looked at his legs that were thirty percent lazy and seventy percent cold, causing people to feel fear and not dare to be impudent. It was as if he was a king, looking at the clown''s acrobatics in front of him. It was as if he had everything under control, as if he was calm and in control.


    Not long later, a young man came over. The Seventh Prince was overjoyed, and hurriedly walked forward: "Master Gu is here?"


    The Master Gu gave him a calm and collected look, respectfully saluted the Emperor: "This subject pays his respects to the Emperor, and the Five Emperors live for tens of thousands of years!"


    The emperor was displeased with this Master Gu from the very first moment. She, a mere commoner, actually disregarded the might of the heavens and did not place him in her eyes at all. Therefore, he said unhappily, "Let''s go see if the Fourth Prince is wearing a human skin mask."


    "Yes." Master Gu did not know that the Emperor was not happy with him, and thought that sshe was unhappy because of the Fourth Prince. Walking in front of Feng Qing Cheng, he said lightly: "Fourth Prince, I apologize."


    "If you don''t want to play, come and assault me? Wasn''t Master Gu able to see through it? "Then we''ll see. If you don''t see that this prince doesn''t mind you touching it, then of course, there will be a price to pay for touching it." Feng Qing Cheng said with an expressionless face.


    Master Gu said with complete confidence: "As Fourth Prince has said." When I reveal your true face and see you still threaten me, I will be unable to save myself, like an ant.


    Master Gu carefully observed Feng Qing Cheng''s face. If one were to carefully look at the skin and skin on the face, they would see that the skin color was not uniform. Master Gu did not reveal from the surface that Feng Qing Cheng was wearing a human skin mask. His heart was slightly shocked, and he cupped his hands: "Sorry."


    Feng Qing Cheng sat on the chair without moving, and said with a cold sneer that was as cold as bone, "Do as you wish."


    The cold and piercing gaze that Feng Qing Cheng was giving made Master Gu break out in a cold sweat. He had a bad feeling, but when he saw the arrow on the bow string, he forced himself to extend both his hands forward and cover that peerless face.


    Master Gu''s hands were very beautiful, even more delicate than the young girl''s. His slender, white, and tender hands were as weak as bones. Feng Qing Cheng endured the disgusting feeling and allowed those dirty hands to touch his face. In the end, he couldn''t hold back anymore and said, "Is that enough!?"


    Master Gu''s face was as ugly as the Imperial Physician Zhang''s. Of course, compared to Imperial Physician Zhang, who had her own methods of escaping, he was not afraid at all. She said honestly: "This man does not have a human skin mask on her face.


    Seventh Prince looked at him in disbelief and burst into a rage: "What nonsense are you spouting? Didn''t you say that he was wearing a human skin mask? Why is he not wearing one now?


    The Master Gu shook her head: "The Fourth Prince did not bribe me. The person I saw was indeed wearing a human skin mask, maybe he was disguised as the Fourth Prince."


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed coldly in his heart. This old man''s thinking was indeed quick, and he had immediately taken everything from him. Just because he was a rather honest person, she allowed him to live.


    "You have to think this through clearly, or else this is a lie and you''ll lose your head!" The Seventh Prince''s eyes were wide open as he gnashed his teeth, not forgetting to give Master Gu a meaningful glance in the end. He hoped that this old man would let his guard down, because if he insisted that this person was fake, he would definitely have a way to take Feng Qing Cheng''s life today.


    The Master Gu was puzzled. "Seventh Prince said it was strange, this commoner only told you. I didn''t tell His Majesty, how did it become a crime to bully the sovereign? Moreover, this commoner only told Seventh Prince that the person was wearing a human skin mask, and did not say that the Fourth Prince was wearing a human skin mask.


    As far as he was concerned, the Master Gu must have been bribed. The news he received was indeed that Feng Qing Cheng was still alive, wearing a human skin mask. He could also guess that Feng Qing Cheng might really be the truth, even if it was real. So what? However, something happened, so he turned his body and cupped his hands: "Royal father, this person must have been bribed, this son can use the head to guarantee it, this person must definitely be wearing a human skin mask, this person must have disguised himself and snuck into the palace, I do not know what is going on, may Imperial father find out."

 C351

    "You actually said he wore a human skin mask? Then you''ll find evidence for me. How can I believe you when you say there''s no proof?" The emperor said with a dark expression.


    The Seventh Prince was so anxious that he did not have time to think about the number of steps he took to rush over. Before he could even get close to Feng Qing Cheng, he was flung to the ground by his palm and said angrily: "Let''s see how today I will look at your hypocritical mask!"


    Feng Qing Cheng looked down at him from above, as if he was looking at an ant. His age was filled with contempt: "How can this prince''s face be casually touched? Also. Whoever touches my face today, I will let them have a taste of the feeling of being touched by a sword afterwards! "


    Imperial Physician Zhang trembled in fear. If Master Gu did not speak, she would not have been able to think of how she could escape from here.


    Seventh Prince grabbed onto the subject, climbed up with us, and pointed at Feng Qing Cheng with a complacent tone: "If you don''t let me touch it, it proves that you are hiding something! royal father is a fake, if we let you capture him, we can torture him a bit, and we will know the result. "


    Humph. At that time, he would have ways to make Feng Qing Cheng confess and sign his name in the Sky Prison. But in a little time, he would be able to take his life.


    "I''m not stupid yet, I don''t need you to tell me what to do." The Emperor said in a cold voice, and he felt disgust towards the Seventh Prince.


    When the Seventh Prince said his son was terrified, even if he was unwilling to speak, it wouldn''t end well if he didn''t provoke the Emperor.


    "Seventh Brother, you came and said that Fourth Bro is fake and is wearing a human skin mask. This Emperor heard your words and called for him, and now that the human skin mask has not found you and said that Fourth Bro is trying to win the hearts, then alright, this Emperor will give you a method today. If you cannot prove that Fourth Bro is fake, then I will ask for your sake, and I will definitely not let you intimidate us." The Emperor was furious and immediately frightened the Seventh Prince and the others so much that they didn''t dare to breathe anymore. Beads of sweat rolled down as the Seventh Prince kowtowed and said, "Yes." The answer was extremely unwilling.


    How could the Seventh Prince have thought that things would turn out this way? This caused the Master Gu to turn a blind eye to his murderous eyes. Looking at the Fourth Prince''s expression, it seemed as if he had a plan in mind, he was indeed not wearing a human skin mask and had joined his words. What if the Fourth Prince was looking for someone to impersonate him and had other plans? It was best that he didn''t offend her ¡­ Seeing the Emperor''s attitude towards the Seventh Prince, he was already filled with disgust ¡­ The more he thought about it, the more indifferent he became.


    The Seventh Prince didn''t know what to do. A minister behind him said, "Seventh Prince, we can only gamble now. Let''s test our relatives with blood."


    "Bastard thing, royal father is the zodiac ¡­" The official lowered his head helplessly and said, "But I can''t think of any other way." They were laymen in the art of disguise, how could they find a person to identify it now? He couldn''t possibly say that the Seventh Prince was fake, right?


    The Seventh Prince was at his wit''s end. Since this was the case, he decided to take a gamble. He cupped his hands and said, "Imperial Father, this son has a presumptuous request to ask of you."


    "Speak." The Emperor shouted in a deep voice.


    "This son has thought of a method to test one''s family by dripping blood, and is even asking for father''s grace." The Seventh Prince was trembling with fear.


    "Impudent, royal father is a True Dragon zodiac, how can she possibly be slightly injured?" Feng Qing Cheng shouted with an imposing manner that caused the Seventh Prince to feel fear in his heart. Realizing that he had been intimidated by Feng Qing Cheng, he said angrily, "I naturally know, there''s no need for you to say this. "Hmph, of course, you can''t wait for me to do nothing, so that you can continue to pretend to be me!"


    Feng Qing Cheng sneered: "We are brothers, blood is naturally soluble."


    Seventh Prince was startled. This was indeed a way, but when he looked at Feng Qing Cheng''s contemptuous face, his face immediately flushed red. He said in a muffled voice: "Men, go get a bowl of water."


    "Wait a minute, I''m afraid that you''ll do something, please ¡­" Her gaze turned to the eunuch by the emperor''s side. The old eunuch said, "This old servant will go prepare some things now."


    Seventh Prince was shocked when he saw this. This old eunuch had followed Imperial Father for more than thirty years and was a loyal subject. This was bad. It seemed that Fourth Elder was the real one. But what was wrong with this human skin mask? Could it be a trap for him? Suddenly, his back felt a chill. "No, it won''t happen ¡­" He had come up with this idea on the spur of the moment, so no one would be able to guess what he was thinking.


    In a moment, the old eunuch came back with a bowl of clear water. Both sides cut open their fingers and poured the blood into the bowl. Two drops of blood bloomed in the water, and the Seventh Prince stared at the two drops of blood. As if the heavens had heard his plea, the two drops of blood did not fuse together ¡­


    "Hahahaha ¡­" Did you see that, you are a fake! royal father, the person in front of you is a fake! " The Seventh Prince was extremely excited, his eyes looking at Feng Qing Cheng with an unspeakable sense of pride. In his view, Feng Qing Cheng was already a dead person, impersonating a prince was a huge crime!


    "You said that I am a fake? I think you''re the fake one. You said you''d get better after taking a pill in your dreams, and you even said you were a wyvern? This is the biggest joke in the world, this imperial palace''s True Dragon is my royal father, what are you? Seventh brother is gentle and polite to others, but you are nothing else! "I was suspicious of you from the start, but now I''m even more sure that you''re a fake. Tell me, where did you take my seventh brother?" Feng Qing Cheng approached the Seventh Prince, and when the Seventh Prince saw that his gaze was filled with confusion, he immediately shouted, "You''re talking nonsense."


    "If I''m talking nonsense, then why don''t you explain it to me? Why did you recover overnight?"


    "Father!" Seventh Prince turned his head and said.


    "Alright, enough. Give me the knife."


    "Your Majesty ¡ª"


    "Father!"


    Everyone wanted to stop him, but the emperor waved his hand and snappily replied, "It''s just a drop of blood, not my life."


    Three drops of blood for the three of them, and in the end, Feng Qing Cheng and the Emperor''s blood fused together, while the seventh prince''s blood was left alone at the side. Seventh Prince''s head exploded with shock as he stared at the drop of blood. How could this be? How could this be? Impossible, absolutely impossible ¡­


    But then again, who came to tell him that the emperor and Feng Qing Cheng couldn''t have conspired to kill him? Or could Feng Qing Cheng bribe the people around the emperor? His head buzzing, he stiffly turned his head to look at the black face of the emperor and the ''as expected'' Feng Qing Cheng. He cried, "Royal father, this must be someone framing this one and separating this one and this one ¡­ "That must be it ¡­"


    The Emperor watched his two sons fight, and in the end, one of them turned out to be his own son. The Seventh Prince was already a teenager, so how could he have been cuckolded for more than ten years? How could he not be angry? He immediately shouted, "Men, drag this beast down and serve him!"


    "Serves you well" was one of the emperor''s meaningless words. Serving you well wasn''t just to make you comfortable, it was to take your life!

 C352

    Under the Prince Xian''s persuasion, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge agreed to marry Li Guo Er right away and even arranged a big wedding for his. The date was set to be one month later and it was just in time. The people of Hulk were united. If he could help the First Prince take back the throne, why couldn''t his entire clan be used by him?


    Li Guo Er was currently residing in the Prince Xian''s Mansion and waiting to be married off. He had always been depressed about his and Liu Xiang''s guilt, and never had the joy of being married off! When the servant found out that she was the princess, he treated her with great respect. He didn''t treat her with contempt even though she was standing by himself. The new maid saw that she was depressed and didn''t understand, "Princess, you''re going to marry the emperor soon. Aren''t you happy?"


    The maid did not think he could ask such a question. Li Guo Er felt his heart heating up when he saw her bluntness, was he happy? From the perspective of the princess, this was something that she should do. Not only had she managed to preserve his life, he had even managed to turn the First Prince around. He should be happy. But what was that faint feeling of loss in his heart?


    "I''m happy, but I miss you brother. I don''t know if brother was happy or not after hearing this news." Li Guo Er laughed slightly, the servant then realised, that being alone in a foreign land, it was normal for her to be unhappy. The servant looked at Li Guo Er pitifully. Although she was a princess, she did not seem to be living happily.


    Xi Jiu Er felt that her abdomen was very strange, a kind of strange feeling spread all over his body, as if his body was being wrapped by a vine, and something was growing. Perhaps the child was growing up inside ¡­ As she caressed her belly, Tian''er, who was in the middle of spring, also felt happy.


    Seeing that she was in a good mood, Dong Zhu was overjoyed: "Madame, how about we go out and take a look?"


    Qing Qing? "Forget it, it''s good to walk around the mansion." Xi Jiu Er laughed, but Dong Zhu could not say anything else. Ever since Big Sister Liu Xiang left, she clearly felt that her master''s thoughts were much heavier than before. Maybe it was because she was unhappy.


    Xi Jiu Er walked around the residence while she was far away from Li Guo Er. Dong Zhu said softly: "Miss Li has never come out of the courtyard. He seems to be in a bad mood."


    Xi Jiu Er stood at the side silently as she went back. She sat for two hours straight, and when Ge La had nothing better to do, she would stand at the side and say "Go and find Liu Shui."


    "Yes."


    Liu Shui came quickly and didn''t need Xi Jiu Er to tell him the details of the investigation. The Seventh Prince pretended that his mother had asked him to drink some spirit medicine and his body was fine. He then spread a poem among the people, claiming that he was a wyvern, secretly claiming that he was the crown prince. The Imperial Physician Zhang did not manage to find the human skin mask, and could only look for Master Gu. The Master Gu did not find him to choose to tell the truth.


    After the Seventh Prince was bitten by the Master Gu, he had no solution at all. Officials urged him to drip his blood to test his relatives.


    Xi Jiu Er''s face was expressionless as she listened. A prince being questioned about the Imperial Bloodline was a matter that would be accompanied by his entire body of criticism. Xi Jiu Er continued to stroke her abdomen, a struggle flashed past her eyes, and she said indifferently: "Use the fastest speed possible to spread this news ¡­ ¡­"


    "Prince ¡­" Xi Jiu Er was startled, only to see Prince Xian raise the curtain to look at her, he did not know how much he heard. He had been too lost in thought earlier that he didn''t hear his voice.


    Liu Shui lowered his eyes and retreated.


    Prince Xian laughed: "No matter what, he is still the father of a child. Compared to the smile on his face, he was extremely happy. If Xi Jiu Er wanted to deal with Feng Qing Cheng, his hands and feet would agree. But what was the reason?


    Xi Jiu Er rolled his eyes, and coldly snorted: "Since when did Prince Xian become so nosy?" immediately smiled apologetically: "Alright alright, alright, mind your own business, don''t meddle in other people''s business. If you need a husband, do not hesitate to speak your mind. Both of his eyes were laughing non-stop, and seeing him like this, Xi Jiu Er''s mood inexplicably became better.


    In her opinion, Prince Xian was a good friend of hers. A good friend who could be trusted, she felt extremely relaxed when she was together with him.


    "The Xi Mansion has come, as well as her relatives. They seem to be here to seek refuge." Prince Xian liked the look in Jiu Er''s eyes, that look made his feel comfortable, as though he trusted him completely.


    Third Wife? Xi Jiu Er felt a moment of absent-mindedness, as if she had been reborn. In the hall, Third Wife had become a normal looking woman. She was dressed in simple and elegant attire, and when she saw Xi Jiu Er she immediately stood up and saluted: "This humble one greets Mrs. IX."


    The woman in front of him seemed to have never drawn a mark on her body in her life before. She was still as beautiful as before. The only change was the calmness in his eyes as his stomach bulged! He looked at himself, then at Xi Family, only the woman in front of him was still alive. She did not reveal her talent, and was like a water lotus that quietly bloomed.


    "Get up." Xi Jiu Er smiled sincerely. She got along well with her at the banquet, and because her child Xi Ping was born by himself, he was even more amiable towards the Third Wife. She looked at him and said, "It looks like you''re doing quite well!"


    "I''m just getting too full." Third Wife stood up and saw that Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were filled with sincerity. She did not know why, but she started crying: "At this time, only you, Madame, are willing to see us."


    Mother Fang advised from the side, "Madame, your eyes were not good to begin with, don''t cry." Mother Fang was more benevolent and old than before, but her spirit was even better than in Xi Mansion.


    "mother won''t cry ¡­" The young and tender voice sounded warm and warm. Xi Jiu Er looked down and saw a two year old child who was white and fat. Compared to her brother, he looked even more agile and cute.


    "Safe ¡­" You''ve already grown so much. " Xi Jiu Er touched the child''s head. Because she had safely drank the water, her body was much stronger than the other children.


    "That''s not it... Come, call me Mrs. IX. " When she talked about the peaceful Third Wife''s expression, she had a proud look on her face like a mother. Her peaceful growth was faster than other children and she was smarter than others of the same age.


    "Mrs. IX ¡­" The child obediently shouted. A pair of large eyes blinked, making people extremely happy! Xi Jiu Er let out a "Ai", and immediately got Dong Zhu to give him a small toy. Fortunately, she had prepared a lot for her child, so it was just right for her to use them now.


    Xi Rui, who was standing at the side, was extremely obedient. Naturally, Xi Jiu Er could not let him down as he asked with a gentle smile, "Do you still remember me?"


    "Remember, you are the Great Miss." Xi Rui replied obediently, she had a rather sensible personality. Her appearance was 70% similar to the Third Wife, and the other 30% similar to Xi Hong Sheng. There was a slight resistance towards this child in his heart. When Dong Zhu brought the box over, it was filled with locks for the child''s luck, longevity locks, safety buckles and so on.

 C353

    "Since you''re called ''Ping An'', then I''ll let you have ''Ping An''!" Xi Jiu Er selected the best safety button and personally put it on the child. She could feel that the child was emitting a strange fragrance. This fragrance caused her heart to soften and her expression to become even more gentle.


    "Hurry up and thank Mrs. IX." Third Wife did not treat Xi Jiu Er politely either. In her eyes, Xi Jiu Er never lacked for silver and never cared about it. She would do whatever she wanted to do according to her own preferences.


    The child obediently smiled, "Thank you, Mrs. IX."


    "Good boy." Xi Jiu Er caressed her chubby little face, turned her head and smiled at Xi Rui, then took out a good Kuan Yin pendant to put on for him. Xi Rui knew a lot more than Xi Ping at such a young age. He could also tell that Xi Jiu Er did not like him very much, and she even carried a sense of disgust. Therefore, when Xi Jiu Er personally helped him put it on, he was both surprised and happy. He could feel her slightly bulging stomach, as well as a faintly discernible body fragrance coming from her body that he had never smelled before. It was so fragrant, so pleasing, as if he was going to hug her, but she was scared.


    "Alright." After Xi Jiu Er put it on, her face was flushed red and she just laughed. Only then did Third Wife allow the Mother Fang to bring the child away, and Xi Jiu Er also waved her hand to allow the servants to leave. In the blink of an eye, there were only three people in the hall, and the Third Wife slowly narrated what had happened with a sigh.


    "Does Mrs. IX still remember the Li Family?" Third Wife.


    "Li family?" Xi Jiu Er did not have any impression of him, and asked in a daze. Only now did she get the Third Wife''s reminder to remember, and it turned out to be the time when she took Xi Wan Feng in the Li family.


    Third Wife saw that she had remembered and continued: "That day, I accidentally met Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li looked at me and asked if I was the Third Wife from the past. My answer is, ever since that day, their Li Family has been harassing us nonstop. Originally, Mrs. Li''s eldest daughter was poisoned by Xi Wan Feng, but her face has been disfigured and she still hasn''t gotten married. There was still one more concubinage that had been poisoned. There was only one little concubinage that was fine! Mrs. Li scattered all of his grievances onto me, and looked at my child with extreme disgust. If I didn''t have my parents, perhaps I would have already been killed by the Mrs. Li. "


    Xi Jiu Er listened quietly, and did not reveal much of an expression.


    Third Wife continued to speak: "Because the Xi Family has collapsed, I am already relying on someone else in my family. Father married a woman who was younger than me as his successor and chased our family out ¡­ "We really ¡­" After saying that, he stared at Xi Jiu Er with a bit of shame. Xi Jiu Er hated the First Lady, hated Xi Hong Sheng, if it wasn''t for the fact that she and Ping An and she had some friendship, based on her cold personality, she might not have been able to see her. She truly thought that Xi Jiu Er had died, and then she accidentally saw him and knew that he was Mrs. IX.


    "I understand, you can stay here peacefully. I''ll let the prince think of a way to deal with the matters of the Li family." Xi Jiu Er laughed, this was not a big matter. Third Wife hurriedly bowed and stopped her. "We are old acquaintances, there is no need for this."


    Prince Xian immediately agreed to this matter and told Third Wife and the others to stay for a while longer. Xi Jiu Er was depressed all day, and she looked no different from usual. However, he could tell that her mind was preoccupied with something.


    The arrival of Third Wife and the two children added a lot of joy to the household. Third Wife and Xi Jiu Er chatted and chatted for a while, before bringing Liu Shui to safely find something to eat. Xi Rui, on the other hand, obediently listened to the adults chatting, occasionally glancing at the smiling and silent Xi Jiu Er. She was overjoyed in her heart, but did not dare to be impudent in front of her.


    At night, Xi Rui whispered to Mother Fang, "Mother Fang, Mrs. IX doesn''t seem to like Rui''er, why?" Kids were the most sensitive. Who liked them? Who didn''t like them? Why couldn''t they feel it? After enduring for a while, he finally couldn''t hold it in anymore. After all, he was a child, how could he keep his calm?


    Mother Fang was startled, then looked at Xi Hong Sheng''s similar appearance, and smiled lovingly: "Mrs. IX likes you too, but you are already a small adult and your brother is still young, so she likes you a little more."


    "Is that so?" Xi Rui was extremely downcast, so was the mother, and so was the Mother Fang. He didn''t want to grow up anymore. He really wanted to become younger than his younger brother. This way, everyone would like him. When Xi Rui was in Xi Mansion, he could not even be considered to have a good relationship with his. At that time, Mother Fang had to be constantly on guard against First Lady and the others, and also have to take care of the pregnant Third Wife. She had to take care of Xi Rui when the latter Third Wife returned. Thinking that Xi Rui was too old and didn''t need to worry too much, she relaxed even more.


    Xi Rui sighed, but he felt that the Mrs. IX''s hatred was different from the mother''s. He didn''t know the specifics.

    "Since you''re called ''Ping An'', then I''ll let you have ''Ping An''!" Xi Jiu Er selected the best safety button and personally put it on the child.

She had to take care of Xi Rui when the latter Third Wife returned. Thinking that Xi Rui was too old and didn''t need to worry too much, she relaxed even more.


    Xi Rui sighed, but he felt that the Mrs. IX''s loathing for him was different from the mother''s loathing for him.


    At night, when Liu Shui reported Feng Qing Cheng''s news, the officials in the hall were killed! Furthermore, the Seventh Prince had been ordered by the Wind Nation Lord to ''serve'' him well, and the Seventh Prince could be heard howling sinisterly, "Royal father, you have to believe that this son of yours is indeed your son. Royal father ¡­"


    He was like a stray dog as he dragged on, without a trace of gentleness and elegance on his body.


    At this time, the ministers who had heard the news quickly rushed over. They were still discussing matters with the emperor, but who would have thought that the seventh prince would be dragged out. As long as the seventh prince fell, the fourth prince would have no more worries.


    "This subject greets Your Majesty, His Highness the Fourth Prince." The atmosphere in the main hall was a bit strange. Thinking about what the Seventh Prince had just said, it made them feel as if they were deaf and blind. This was a scandal in the imperial government. It was better to not know anything for his own life.


    "Hmph." The emperor coldly snorted, as if he was mocking them for their ability to come at such a time. Of course, it was difficult to obtain a saint''s will, so it was best not to think about what it meant.


    Feng Shui turned back, Feng Qing Cheng was overbearing, his eyes revealing a murderous intent, he expressionlessly looked at the Seventh Prince''s lackey.


    The Emperor who wore a green hat was heartbroken and embarrassed. However, after confirming that Feng Qing Cheng was his own son, his hands trembled slightly under his royal robe, but on the surface, he still maintained a fixed expression. At that moment, he thought, if Feng Qing Cheng was not his child, and if that woman he loved had given him a green hat, what would he do? He would definitely cut Feng Qing Cheng into a thousand pieces and pull her out from the grave to whip her to death.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not feel the least bit of joy in his heart. It was stern, cold, neither happy nor sad, like a block of ice, which made everyone feel pressured. His gaze slowly swept across Imperial Physician Zhang''s body, causing her entire body to tremble. He felt as if there was an eagle circling around him, and he himself was the white rabbit that could become the eagle''s mouth at any time.


    "Imperial Physician Zhang!" Feng Qing Cheng''s mouth rose slightly, and then fiercely scratched at Imperial Physician Zhang, his originally beautiful face now had a demonic look, causing people to shiver.

 C355

    The master of the Imperial Physician Zhang had already been brought down the mountain. In such a huge palace, there really was no one who could protect him, and her life was in danger.


    The Imperial Physician Zhang looked at the emperor with a pleading look, but the emperor''s eyes were closed. Long Yan was furious, and his heart skipped a beat. It would be difficult for him to escape death today.


    Towards Imperial Physician Zhang, Feng Qing Cheng did not hold back at all, because he had once said, "If this human skin mask cannot be torn off today, I will tear off your face, and at that time, don''t blame me for not giving you a favor." Today, I''ll make this old face of yours suffer!


    "This Imperial Physician Zhang is also a part of that thief, she harboured malicious intentions. As I said earlier, I will tear off your face today." In the palace, Feng Qing Cheng was the only person watching as everything happened.


    Everyone looked at the Emperor in unison. The Emperor was in an extremely bad mood, and with a wave of his hand, a storm of blood and gore would arise within the throne room.


    Under the orders of the Emperor, the two bodyguards controlled the Imperial Physician Zhang. No matter how hard he shouted and struggled, it was to no avail.


    No matter how favoured Feng Qing Cheng was, he would not dare to fight with his blade and spear in the throne room. If someone who was disobedient were to make use of this opportunity to cause him trouble, it would still be a headache to him.


    "Let you go." These words were said to Feng Qing Cheng and the emperor''s demeanor was still extraordinary. However, today, he seemed to have aged quite a bit, and underneath his faint exhaustion, he was concealing a sense of unease. Plus, he had been sick a while ago, so now he looked even older.


    The Emperor''s heart was filled with love for his son, and his pampered heart could not be expressed in words, but his words were like a bolt from the blue in the ears of the Imperial Physician Zhang.


    The shining dagger was drawn from the guard''s hand like a viper ready to move, or like the scythe of a death god, ready to take the lives of others at any moment.


    "I don''t want to die." Imperial Physician Zhang''s eyes were filled with fear, the imposing and extraordinary aura she had always prided herself on had completely vanished. She was like a frightened little chick, at a loss of what to do.


    When the cold dagger slashed across Imperial Physician Zhang''s wrinkled face, it was truly a great pleasure. Accompanied by Imperial Physician Zhang''s painful howls, fresh blood spurted out from time to time, making the scene horrifying.


    The gathered ministers all turned their heads, unable to bear to see the bloody scene unfolding before them. Under Feng Qing Cheng''s instructions, the guards brought the Imperial Physician Zhang, who was on the verge of death, down, ready to fall out with him.


    The Imperial Physician Zhang was expressionless and her lips were pale. She could only blame himself for being in the wrong team.


    It was a tragedy for a dead rabbit and a dead fox! The entire palace was filled with the smell of grief and blood. Do you think that Feng Qing Cheng will stop here, otherwise, the anger in his heart would not calm down, it would be like boiling water, boiling hot and boiling.


    The Imperial Physician Zhang was one of them, she naturally could not let it go. He wanted to let the golden cicada escape from her grasp as well, so she rolled her eyes like a sly old fox and kneeled down with a ''pu tong'' sound.


    "Your majesty, this commoner has lost his sight and was bewitched by the Seventh Prince. I request punishment." Master Gu did not ask for wise thinking to protect herself, but falling into the hands of the Emperor was better than falling into Feng Qing Cheng''s hands.


    The emperor was also angry and wished he could cut them into pieces. He slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. It was enough to scare people to the point that their whiskers were trembling.


    "It is entirely up to the fourth prince." The emperor took a deep breath, and felt that he had instantly aged a lot. He couldn''t even manage his family''s matters, how could he have the heart to care about the Master Gu?


    "Humph!" Feng Qing Cheng coldly snorted, "Don''t worry, I won''t take your life."


    Master Gu only felt that the heavens were thunderous, as if the god of death had sounded a war drum. She touched her smooth face, as if she was afraid that she would be skinned alive like a sable, and only felt dizzy.


    "Someone, seize him!"


    The Master Gu did not have any backbone, he cried with a sullen face, "Please spare my life!" He shouted out powerlessly. It was unknown who she was facing, but where could she find the slightest hint of a sage?


    Feng Qing Cheng did not plan on letting him go that easily. There must be something hateful about this pitiful person, as the Master Gu was already under control. Thinking back to when he touched his cheek, he felt so disgusted that he was about to vomit.


    Master Gu felt dizzy when she saw the pincers that was usually used to pick walnuts held in the hands of the guards. His hands were white and tender, whiter than a woman''s hands.


    Master Gu turned around and was drained of energy. Tears fell from the corner of his eyes, which made her expression look a little strange. In this imperial court, everyone was ecstatic. Killing others would only result in one''s own death. This was too satisfying, and only a few people felt uneasy.


    Plop! A court official kneeled down, I do not know if he was scared or not, but when Feng Qing Cheng looked towards the direction of the voice, his eyes were wide open! This man was the seventh prince''s henchman, wearing a blue peacock feather and bending his knees under his python robe.


    "Please enlighten me, Your Majesty!"


    "Please enlighten me, Your Majesty!" Soon after, several other ministers kneeled down. They were all from the seventh prince''s lineage, and their masters were already on the brink of death. All they could do was to redeem each other.


    The four ministers kneeled on the floor and vomited blood. They looked as though they had truly committed a heinous crime, and their sight was captivating.


    A small trick would not move the resolute Feng Qing Cheng''s expression at all. It would cut the grass at its roots. After a moment of silence, the emperor did not make a sound, but instead touched Feng Qing Cheng''s reverse scale.


    The Master Gu''s hand was slender and soft, even more delicate than a woman''s. It had no bones, like a long snake, and was so slippery that it made people want to puke, and there were even rumors that this Master Gu liked men. When she imagined the Master Gu''s hand on a man''s body, Feng Qing Cheng wanted to chop it off.


    "Cripple his hands!" Feng Qing Cheng decided.


    These hands that were specifically used to feel his face were heavier than life itself. In the Master Gu''s heart, this was a masterpiece created by the supernatural, going crazy.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, you will die a horrible death!"


    "Don''t, don''t touch my hand!"


    Master Gu was almost going crazy. Her eyes were red, like a mad wild dog, opening her disgusting teeth and biting onto the guard''s wrist.


    That childish looking face of hers was also especially bewitching. Feng Qing Cheng, who was in a state of righteousness, just happened to charge towards her. The guards were bitten by the Master Gu until they felt pain, and the latter seized the opportunity to escape.


    In the [Inescapable Net], the Master Gu had nowhere to go. Feng Qing Cheng''s feet moved like the wind, and as if he was flying, he kicked at the Master Gu''s chest cleanly. The latter flew out with a face full of despair.


    Master Gu heavily fell to the ground, a few kneeling ministers had complex expressions on their faces, they did not dare move at all, the Master Gu was controlled once again, her arms were held up, the cold pincers that were used to pinch walnuts fell onto his delicate hands, and was broken!


    "AHH!" It was like a wild boar''s howl, accompanied by the sound of bones breaking. Master Gu''s left hand bent down ninety degrees, and was considered crippled.

 C356

    Snot tears flowed down Master Gu''s face, but Feng Qing Cheng was not moved. This was the result of touching his face, he wanted to let everyone know that there were ill intentions towards him, and only death awaited him!


    A few of the Seventh Prince''s group were frightened, and didn''t even bother to speak anymore to plead for mercy. Looking at Master Gu, he spoke malicious words that were unbearable to hear. Someone had blocked his mouth, and Master Gu was like a wild dog, baring her teeth and wanting to bite him.


    "The fourth prince is generous, this commoner was just enthralled by him." Seeing that he had nowhere to go, Master Gu finally remembered to beg for mercy, hoping to save his right hand.


    "You''ve committed many evils. Do you still want to live today?" The cold voice came out from Feng Qing Cheng''s mouth, causing people''s hair to stand on end. He had his hands behind his back and stood up straight, he was today''s victor, and all of this did not seem to be worth mentioning in his eyes.


    Master Gu''s hair was in disarray, she did not have the appearance of an immortal cultivator, her body was covered in filth, like a beggar.


    Feng Qing Cheng nodded his head lightly, his resolute face did not have a single trace of change, as though he was a deity who had transcended everything.


    What a joke! Feng Qing Cheng is not a merciful and lenient person, if you want to do something bad to me, then I will definitely put you to death.


    Both of his hands came down, and blood slowly dripped from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were perfectly round, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, and was crawling on the ground like a boneless earthworm.


    "Master Gu, are you guilty?" Feng Qing Cheng slowly paced back and forth.


    He did not reply, nor did he make any sound, as if he was a dead man. He looked at Master Gu again, mumbling to himself, crying and laughing.


    The Master Gu was going crazy. Feng Qing Cheng did not take her next step, but turned around naturally and cleanly, as if she was going to cut off all the flesh on her body.


    "What do you think!" Feng Qing Cheng looked at the four kneeling ministers.


    Seeing the Master Gu in such a state, the four officials were all frightened and trembling. They no longer dared to rebel against Feng Qing Cheng.


    "The Fourth Prince is right, he deserves to die, and that Imperial Physician Zhang is also a person who deserves to die!" I don''t know who said it first.


    "The fourth prince is wise! That Imperial Physician Zhang and that Master Gu is simply a wolf''s ambition. " This group of people were also people who knew what they were doing, but they weren''t stupid.


    "This is the emperor perceiving everything." Feng Qing Cheng changed the topic of his words, "As for all of you, your deaths are not worth lamenting!"


    "Hu!" The crowd gasped, only feeling the killing intent spread throughout the entire palace. Feng Qing Cheng, this god of death, had not killed enough children.


    Imperial Physician Zhang and Master Gu were dragged out like dead dogs. The great hall suddenly became extremely quiet, so quiet that even a pin drop could hear them.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes were firm, he slowly raised his head, fury flowed out of his eyes, his long fingers stretched out, and there was no place left without fear.


    The few kneeling ministers were already sweating profusely. The large throne room had now become a huge cage, and each one of them could become the next person on the verge of death.


    The emperor had already made his stance clear. Unconditionally supporting the fourth prince, the ministers had no way to save him. Other than begging, what else could they do?


    Swish! One of the ministers stood up with a grim expression. His lips quivered as if he had made a great decision. He was like a moth flying into the fire, disregarding his own safety.


    "Is it a little inappropriate for the Fourth Prince to do so, hurting the hearts of the ministers? That Imperial Physician Zhang did not contribute much, but they still have to put in effort. Right now, they''re only being bewitched, but their ultimate goal is also His Majesty. They might have a chance to atone for their sins!" This warrior general only wanted to pin this big hat on Feng Qing Cheng''s head, as if he was already prepared to die.


    A fight to the death? Although Feng Qing Cheng seemed to be retorted to a state of speechlessness, he could only smile bitterly. In fact, he had already decided in his heart to remove the obstacle in front of him long ago.


    "I didn''t want to start a massacre, but someone tried to force my way. The seventh prince has evil intentions, and now he isn''t even a prince. It''s hard to avoid him being a spy sent by his country. So, what do you think?" Feng Qing Cheng calmly asked, her eyes revealing a confident look. The corner of her mouth slightly curled up.


    "This, this official is innocent!" Hearing that, the general shrugged his shoulders and knelt down before the emperor. That was his only hope.


    The sun shone down onto the general''s body, and it was as if the light had fused with him, making it impossible to see his expression, happiness, or sadness. It was as if as the general stood up weakly, the man''s tears flowed down unknowingly, and he pulled out the ivory hairpin.


    "AHH!" The general had gone insane. He knew that he was going to die today. He held the ivory hairpin tightly in his hand. It was dazzling and terrifying. He was as tall as a horse and as if he was a mad bison.


    "Protect His Majesty!" The rows of guards had long been on guard as they surrounded the military generals in a well-trained manner.


    The general''s target was Feng Qing Cheng, so he was determined to kill them all. The Seventh Prince had shown him kindness, even if he was lucky enough to escape, it would be better if he died a carefree death.


    "After death, they will forever be without a trace. If we want to meet again, we will meet in the dream! Everyone, go ahead. " That martial general took the last few steps of his life and was quite bold. The black veil on his python robe was torn off by him.


    Feng Qing Cheng was slightly moved. She did not think that the Seventh Prince also had some strong warriors under his command, but this person had already steeled his heart, and definitely could not leave any future troubles.


    Blood splattered everywhere. Under the illumination of the sun, he was bewitching as he howled, laughed, and cried. He had used the last of his strength. His eyebrows were tightly knitted, and the pain on his body became even more obvious.


    When the ivory hairpin was silently inserted into the heart, it was as if the heart had finally found its harbor. The blood had also found its outlet, and the soul was at peace.


    "Finally, I don''t need to do those things that disobey my heart anymore." In fact, his soul had already been bound for many days and nights. Today, he had finally used the weeping of blood to wash away the stain on his soul.


    The general had completed the most tragic song he had ever performed in his life, and blood kept gushing out. His eyes were blurred, and he was released. In the end, all that remained was a faint smile, "Thank you." He looked at Feng Qing Cheng, and finally at the wide and luxurious door. He no longer had the chance to go out.


    The entire hall was filled with the stench of blood, causing people to feel nauseous. Among the remaining three ministers, one of them was already scared out of his wits and passed out. The other two didn''t know what to do.


    When Feng Qing Cheng looked back, the hall was still completely silent. The guards were sweeping the place, and even though he didn''t know what the emperor was thinking, he wasn''t angry, but he was happy.

 C357

    Feng Qing Cheng''s iron-blooded wrist was destined to stay in these people''s nightmares forever, and his cold-blooded look was also ingrained in everyone''s hearts.


    "Kill them too!" Feng Qing Cheng was talking about the remaining three people.


    The blood on the ground was still shocking, Feng Qing Cheng took the blade of the guard by the side and wiped off the blood on it, he wanted to cut off the remaining people.


    Amongst the three of them, there was still one more martial general, who was also an expert, who was already ready to make his move. Feng Qing Cheng had long heard of his beastly nature.


    Although it was filthy, Feng Qing Cheng was still spotless. His white robes was covered by a thin layer of golden sand, giving him the appearance of someone who had transcended the world.


    The blade pointed at the martial general before him, then he opened his mouth relentlessly and icily, "Come, this is your last chance."


    The second general was surprised that Feng Qing Cheng would actually fight with his life on the line. He did not believe that the spoiled Fourth Prince would be his match.


    "I''m different from that trash!" As if giving herself courage, the officer grabbed the blade of a guard who was bleeding and slashed over. Feng Qing Cheng calmly blocked the blade and accepted the heavy blade technique.


    Every single blade strike from a martial general weighed a thousand kilograms, and was something that one could only defend against. However, Feng Qing Cheng weighed a few thousand kilograms, which was a bit feminine and elegant.


    After a few meetings, under Feng Qing Cheng''s lead, the two seemed to be sparring and dancing. Feng Qing Cheng''s wide sleeves were flung aside, and he looked like two butterflies dancing in the air, as though he was in a bit of a daze.


    As the saber slashed down, a strand of the general''s hair fell down, causing a wave of alarmed cries to ring out.


    "I didn''t expect the fourth prince to be so skilled."


    "The fourth prince will definitely behead this unruly criminal."


    All of a sudden, the various officials were discussing among themselves. However, Feng Qing Cheng''s performance had made them convinced, and now, the general''s expression was sinister, as if he wanted to devour someone alive.


    Feng Qing Cheng had used all of his skills on that blade, his palm was a little numb, he did not want to let the hand that held the blade tremble. With his exhausted look, he wanted to lure the martial general in, and with that, he could kill him with one slash.


    Large numbers of guards rushed out, including the four secret guards beside the emperor. The military general was like a fish caught in a net, being slaughtered at will.


    Picking up the heavy saber, the military general took his own life. The sharp blade sliced across his neck in just a second before finally coming to a stop in front of his despairing expression.


    Another person died. The guards cleaned up and carried the general''s corpse out, but Feng Qing Cheng looked at the four emperor''s hidden guards that were deep in thought. He did not know what he was thinking about, but he revealed a look of understanding.


    "Fourth Prince, please spare my life. I will work hard for you in the future." The other official saw that the situation was not good and begged Feng Qing Cheng for mercy.


    His expression was still as cold as ever, as if it was enough to freeze someone. At this moment, the remaining two ministers no longer held on to their dignity, and only wanted to live.


    "You all deserve to die!" Feng Qing Cheng was furious, he kicked away the official and with a wave of his hand, the bloodthirsty blade pointed at the official.


    Using only a single slash, Feng Qing Cheng finished off the last two officials. After that, he casually threw down his blade, scaring the crowd senseless. He was no longer neat and tidy like before, his body was completely stained with blood, and his face had turned into a bloodthirsty smile.


    Feng Qing Cheng tidied up his robe and took off his coat. He was annoyed.


    The entire hall had been baptized in blood, and blood flowed all over the ground. Only then did the emperor open his eyes, not concealing his bias towards Feng Qing Cheng at all.


    "The fourth prince has done meritorious deeds, reward!" After he finished speaking, he looked at Feng Qing Cheng with admiration, the love and love his father had for his son.


    The crowd was already scared out of their wits. How could they dare to retort? The four ministers who had died were the same as before. Of course, those officials who followed Feng Qing Cheng were happy.


    "Your majesty the Emperor!"


    Feng Qing Cheng met the emperor''s gaze, like a showdown between ice and fire. His eyes were as sharp as the blade just now, wanting to make the emperor die, the ministers and officials were intelligent, noticing this strange atmosphere, none of them dared to breathe.


    "Father shouldn''t blame me!" Feng Qing Cheng said resolutely, with a tone that even ministers would not be able to touch, causing them to feel that there was something else inside.


    The emperor was disapproving, his cold love for Feng Qing Cheng was close to insanity, even if Feng Qing Cheng were to kill him now, he would not say anything.


    "This is my fault, I should not have doubted my son." The emperor very naturally spoke. He was like a loving father as he slowly said, "Whoever doubts their own bloodline will also be enraged." Moreover, for a person with a cold nature like Feng Qing Cheng,


    "Your child is heartbroken and is unable to hold on. I want to rest for a bit." After she finished speaking, Feng Qing Cheng turned around and left under everyone''s gaze, supported by the guards.


    Just as he walked out of the hall''s door, Little Snow began to rain down from the outside. The servant quickly covered him up with a fur robe, and under the cover of the robe, Feng Qing Cheng looked even more handsome and noble than before.


    The entire palace was covered in silver. Zhuge Lin''s expression didn''t change at all, as if nothing had happened. Only the look in his eyes was a bit absent-minded.


    In the Sky Prison of the Imperial Palace, a slightly thin figure appeared at the entrance of the dungeon. He walked one step at a time, stepping on the soft snow.


    Feng Qing Cheng shook off the snow on his robes and decisively walked into the dungeon. There were people waiting there he had long prepared.


    The dim oil lamp flickered in the darkness of the dungeon. The jailer was drowsy. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief as he saw the Fourth Prince. The next second, the door was opened for him in shock.


    The other guard was already waiting to lead the way. His trusted aide followed behind him, dusting off the snow and removing his fur.


    The other guard was left in his original position, and only was able to run straight to the Sky Prison. Although it was the best dungeon, when the guard arrived there, he couldn''t help but cover his mouth and nose.


    A pungent smell filled the entire dungeon. Some straw was scattered on the ground, and a person was lying on top of it.


    Upon hearing the newcomer, the person in the dungeon raised his head. His hair was disheveled and his body exuded a terrible stench. His hair was dirty and he looked like a beggar. Only his eyes were as sharp as a viper. From that resentful and malicious gaze, Feng Qing Cheng could tell with a glance that this person was his younger brother, the seventh prince. It had only been a short while, and he had already been served by those nimble people? If he didn''t send someone to stop him, he would have already become a corpse.

 C358

    I have a secret for you


    "To harm others will always harm oneself." Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently. He had no enmity with the Seventh Prince, if he were to obediently live his life as a prince, would not make things difficult for him in the slightest. Yet he insisted on snatching the throne from her!


    He used both hands and feet to crawl to the corner of the wall. He was not Feng Qing Cheng''s match, and this self-knowledge was still there: "What are you trying to do." The jailer opened the door, and the sound of the lock being unlocked turned the Seventh Prince into a frightened bird. He hugged his shoulders as he stared wide-eyed.


    Feng Qing Cheng walked in with his hands behind his back. His robe carried the cold air from the outside as he looked down at the Seventh Prince from above, swept his gaze over the dark, gloomy dungeon in one glance, and then squatted down.


    Seventh Prince leaned back again, regret and helplessness filling his mind. His face was ghastly pale, like a snowflake falling outside. The candlelight flickered but was not bright, they could not see each other''s expression clearly, Feng Qing Cheng tilted his head.


    "Don''t kill me, I''m your blood brother." At this time, the Seventh Prince suddenly remembered the blood kinship. He had never been an intelligent person, otherwise, he wouldn''t have wasted his saliva on saying those false words. Was he going to use that ridiculous kinship to move him? Feng Qing Cheng sneered. He pulled out a dagger from his boot. It was so bright that it was somewhat dazzling. The sharp blade slid across his skin, leaving behind a wound that would be difficult to heal.


    "I want to kill you, just like how you have countless fantasies of killing me." Feng Qing Cheng drew a line on the dagger with her finger, leaving a faint trace of blood.


    Seventh Prince became silent. He closed his eyes and his thin lips were also tightly clenched. There was not a trace of blood on them.


    Actually, Feng Qing Cheng did not hesitate at all. If he was the one who was in trouble today, those few officials, his little brother who was sitting here paralyzed, would have used some other method to torture him.


    When he thought of this, Feng Qing Cheng became extremely angry. He suddenly grabbed the Seventh Prince''s neck, and lifted the skinny opponent up.


    Although the Seventh Prince was afraid and his eyebrows couldn''t stop trembling, he still resolutely waited for the moment the dagger pierced through his body to end.


    Naturally, Feng Qing Cheng would not be merciful. Just as he was about to attack, the Seventh Prince''s eyes suddenly opened, flashing with a complicated light.


    "You did something to that bowl of water, right? Alright, I lost it all. But I am free when I die, and you are the most pitiful person. " The Seventh Prince had gone slightly crazy and probably resigned himself to his fate. He didn''t know when, but he had already bitten his lips. Fresh blood flowed from the corner of his mouth and dripped onto the wet ground.


    Feng Qing Cheng pushed him away and frowned. She wanted to see what he had to say, so she leaned against the wall leisurely and exhaled a breath of cold air.


    Seeing the cold air rise like smoke in the sky, the Seventh Prince said while pulling at his tattered clothes, "Although you are favored now, it is still the humiliation of your father."


    The last sentence that came out from his father''s mouth was something that the Seventh Prince almost said while clenching his teeth. He was filled with hatred towards the Emperor and he also had a gritting hatred towards Feng Qing Cheng. His fate was similar to Feng Qing Cheng''s, he didn''t have as much luck as Feng Qing Cheng.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not say a word. He clenched his fingers until they were white, his white fingers pinched until they were a little purple, and the veins on his forehead were popping out.


    This was the thing that Feng Qing Cheng didn''t want to face the most, that was, he was an illegitimate child.


    The dungeon was abnormally cold, probably because the snow outside was getting heavier. Feng Qing Cheng wrapped himself in the fur, not saying a word. Seventh Prince looked at the door. He was definitely going to die today, and he wouldn''t let Feng Qing Cheng feel at ease either.


    "My mother was a concubine at that time, and I was the one who was favored the most. I didn''t feel any love for an illegitimate child like you, let alone a parent ¡­ It would be worth it even if I think about it. " The Seventh Prince''s goal was to piss Feng Qing Cheng off.


    The history of a child was the most painful scar on Feng Qing Cheng''s heart, and the Seventh Prince was going to slowly remove the scar that was just about to heal, bit by bit, to the point of his entire body being riddled with wounds, even if they were to die together. He was filled with hatred in his heart, but he didn''t fuss about it with the Seventh Prince.


    Feng Qing Cheng ignored him. He would not waste any more time on a dead man and the Seventh Prince was nothing more than a fish on a chopping block in his eyes. No matter how crazily he struggled, he could not change the final outcome.


    Who knew how much time had passed before the Seventh Prince''s lips curled up, like a Magus who was trying to bewitch Feng Qing Cheng.


    "Whiz!" It was like a gust of wind had just passed by. Surprisingly, it was a warm breeze. The sound of breathing was accompanied by a violent heartbeat, which was as strong as the beating of a war drum.


    In the next second, Feng Qing Cheng appeared on the Seventh Prince''s body. He did not say a single word, but his heart was filled with resentment. Since his plan had been successful, Feng Qing Cheng no longer had an expression of honor and disgrace, and could feel a thick killing intent.


    The person behind Feng Qing Cheng moved, and the Seventh Prince screamed, "Wait, I still have something to say. We are blood-related brothers, we shouldn''t kill each other. " The Seventh Prince admitted that he was afraid of death.


    The Seventh Prince regretted it. Perhaps he shouldn''t have provoked this pervert, but it was impossible for him to back down now. He rolled his eyes, pursed his lips, then hurriedly tried to smooth things over for himself. Of course, he had already shamelessly forgotten about the forceful exchange in the great hall just now.


    "I have a secret to tell you. It concerns you ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng''s brows moved slightly. When the Seventh Prince saw that he had taken the bait, he laughed and spoke in an unpleasant tone, "Actually, the Emperor knew about your existence all along and intentionally assassinated you with the Empress and his concubines. Your greatest enemy is him! Let me go, I promise you that I''ll behave like a dog in the palace and won''t cause any more trouble. " Seventh Prince said while wailing, and then, his tears fell as his legs kept on stepping and Feng Qing Cheng firmly grabbed onto her collar.


    In a split-second, the dagger in Feng Qing Cheng''s hand was like a bolt of lightning that struck the Seventh Prince''s ears. Suddenly, a burst of stench spread out, leaving behind a puddle of water on the ground, while the Seventh Prince''s pants became wet, as his legs trembled as he looked at the peerlessly ghost-like face in front of him.


    It had to be said that the Seventh Prince''s transfer of hatred had been very successful, and he had saved his own life.


    Feng Qing Cheng felt like he was struck by lightning in a clear sky. This was the truth that he didn''t want to accept the most, the Emperor had always wanted him dead. That day, the Emperor had said that he loved him the most. What a joke.

 C359

    I have a secret for you.


    "Since you want to kill me, why do you pretend to love me?" Feng Qing Cheng''s expression did not change, but his body slightly trembled, and he felt that everything he said was extremely bitter.


    Feng Qing Cheng forced himself to calm down, but he could not, and with a "peng" sound, he smashed his fist against the wall, causing it to become as stiff as an iron hammer.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s every action would affect the Seventh Prince''s heart. The latter knew that he had succeeded, and was a little complacent.


    "Get out, all of you." Feng Qing Cheng bellowed, and the people behind him retreated respectfully.


    The dagger quietly fell to the ground, flickering in and out of the light. The Seventh Prince did not have the guts to pick up the dagger, but he was afraid that Feng Qing Cheng would notice and could only move it slowly, like a caterpillar.


    Just as the seventh prince was about to touch the handle of the dagger, the sound of footsteps could be heard. A slender and powerful leg kicked the dagger into the air, and in the next second, it ruthlessly stomped on the seventh prince''s hand.


    "AHH!" This person was Feng Qing Cheng. He caught the dagger in the air and then stabbed it downwards with all his might. The dagger made a metallic sound as it collided with the ground. Flames flew everywhere, and the Seventh Prince was so frightened that he almost lost consciousness.


    That uneasy feeling was like a flood that needed to be released.


    Feng Qing Cheng acted as if he had grabbed Seventh Prince and threw a punch at his face, followed closely by another. The entire cell was filled with the Seventh Prince''s painful howls, the pain that fell on his body was not even as painful as the injury on Feng Qing Cheng''s heart.


    The dagger was flung out, and the Seventh Prince was also a vicious and merciless master. He flipped his body, grabbed the dagger, and rushed towards Feng Qing Cheng while waving it. grabbed the Seventh Prince''s wrist with one hand and kicked him with the other. The Seventh Prince was sent flying backwards like a kite with its string cut, his eyes filled with disbelief.


    "Why? You gave birth to me, yet now you want to kill me?" Feng Qing Cheng was furious, the hatred in his heart was boiling like boiling water.


    How could Feng Qing Cheng not remember the days of flight when the Queen had sent people to kill him and her concubine wanted him to die a graveless death? He was like a pitiful stray dog, his mother had also died. He was the only person in the world ¡­ Until a woman showed up... It was she who warmed herself. Thinking about Xi Jiu Er, his anger gradually calmed down.


    "All of this is because of you. Don''t blame me for being ruthless." There was only one word in Feng Qing Cheng''s heart, Kill!


    The dazzling light shone at the corner of Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes. He turned to the side and the Seventh Prince pounced over, a little embarrassed.


    Seventh Prince''s gaze was as vicious as a wolf, and his expression was hideous as he continued to roar in rage, not caring about the blood that flowed down the river!


    It''s just a battle between beasts. Feng Qing Cheng closed his eyes, completely disdaining to fight with him. With a flick of his robe, he tied up the Seventh Prince''s hands and threw him to the side.


    Seventh Prince watched helplessly as the dagger once again returned to Feng Qing Cheng''s hands. The latter then shook the dagger and patted his face. Feng Qing Cheng released his hand, and didn''t take the next step.


    The atmosphere had frozen. Although the prison was very cold, the Seventh Prince''s hair was swollen like a chicken''s nest, and was covered with strands of hair.


    "You bastard, everyone wants to die." Seventh Prince laughed loudly. He seemed to have gone insane as he laid on the cold floor in a trance. He was already dead, but he wouldn''t let Feng Qing Cheng off easy even if he died.


    One fist, two punches. Feng Qing Cheng punched his stomach as if venting his anger, the Seventh Prince struggled a little. His hair was also trampled on, there really was no escape.


    It was as if this was the most hopeless of hells, a cage with no hope at all. It was better to just die like this, but there was not a trace of the sun''s glow.


    The Seventh Prince coughed uncontrollably. His face was pale and the circles around his eyes had already been beaten black.


    "Actually, your mother was killed by my mufei to the point of her kneeling and begging for forgiveness! "Hahaha." Until now, the Seventh Prince had finally revealed the secret at the bottom of his heart, and only hoped to make Feng Qing Cheng angry, and make him suffer.


    Feng Qing Cheng was stunned, he slowly raised his head, his eyes were filled with blood veins, crystal clear tears flowed down his face, in a moment, tears had already filled his cheeks, and there were still tears in his eyes.


    Sure enough, this was what hurt Feng Qing Cheng the most, mother! He was his reverse scale, never to be touched! This feeling lasted for a moment, and then came Feng Qing Cheng''s cold eyes.


    At this time, Seventh Prince said with a snort: "If you don''t want to know, then don''t do it. I admit it today, but in my heart, you are still a little bastard that can''t bear to see the light of day. You don''t deserve me looking at you. Haha, hahaha."


    The torches lit up the seventh prince''s face. The calm expression on his face was frightening, but his heart was plotting nonstop. He knew that he was no match for the seventh prince, but he would definitely not let this villain off easy.


    Right now, there was someone inside the Sky Prison who was shouting out in pain. The opportunity had come, the Seventh Prince saw that Feng Qing Cheng was a little dazed, and the grass beneath his feet rustled with noise. He slightly shifted his feet, and the wind below his feet blew past him.


    Feng Qing Cheng had sensed the entire time, he had intentionally exposed a flaw in his plan, which was precisely for the time being. However, this was also good, since it saved him the trouble. Feng Qing Cheng, who knew of his movements earlier, slightly shook his head, shifted his body and dissipated the wind around his feet, blocking the Seventh Prince''s attack with his arm.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at the smile on the corners of the Seventh Prince''s mouth. He felt a little happier in his heart, because this was exactly what the other party wanted.


    Seventh Prince''s body came closer to Feng Qing Cheng as he took the opportunity to launch an attack. His fist struck towards Feng Qing Cheng''s face, but unfortunately, Feng Qing Cheng was even faster, directly turning his body to the side, using his legs to directly kick the Seventh Prince. His body suddenly arched like a bow, and he retreated a few steps.


    The Seventh Prince was not willing to give up, thinking that he had everything under control. He didn''t expect that his last hope would be shattered, so what else did he have. "Little me." His body suddenly lost control. That Feng Qing Cheng almost went crazy and beat up the Seventh Prince until he lost all face, until he could no longer speak.


    Seventh Prince knelt on the ground in pain, clutching his abdomen as he spat out a mouthful of blood. His throat emitted a "hu hu" sound, and an unpleasant smell.


    The only thing Feng Qing Cheng wanted to do was to let the blood out. The pain from his body made the Seventh Prince feel a little numb, and as for the blade that was sliding across his abdomen, he did not feel anything either.


    The dagger was like a bolt of lightning as it sliced through the body of the Seventh Prince. Blood splattered all over the cell, and it was exceptionally eye-catching.

 C360

    In a short while, the Seventh Prince had already turned into a bloody mess. He no longer looked human, but was screaming in pain and begging for mercy. Feng Qing Cheng never had the intention to let go of the Seventh Prince, he only wanted him to suffer even more now.


    Feng Qing Cheng shouted to the guards outside: "Men!"


    "Here!"


    "Bring out the best torture instruments here, I want to properly serve our Seventh Prince." After saying that, Feng Qing Cheng kicked the Seventh Prince far away, then wrapped him in a long robe.


    After a while, a long wooden bed was brought up, on it were various tools. Under Feng Qing Cheng''s orders, two jailers carried the Seventh Prince up.


    A basin of cold water was completely poured over the Seventh Prince''s head. The Seventh Prince slowly opened his eyes and gasped for breath.


    Feng Qing Cheng tied the Seventh Prince''s four limbs to the wooden bed, making him unable to move. Then, he took out a long straw stick, and fiercely stabbed it into the Seventh Prince''s heavily injured leg, piercing through his thigh.


    "I wish I could skin you alive and eat your flesh!" As Feng Qing Cheng said this, she pulled out a blade and aimed it at the Seventh Prince''s arm.


    After the Seventh Prince woke up once more, Feng Qing Cheng took out the knife that he had prepared a long time ago. There were sharp blades on both sides of the knife, and although it was small, it looked to be the most fatal.


    He wanted to shout out loud, but his body didn''t have a single piece of good skin, so he broke out in a cold sweat. There was a huge hole in his abdomen, from which fresh blood trickled out.


    Feng Qing Cheng made a gesture of silence towards the Seventh Prince, then held onto the Seventh Prince''s head, and the dagger entered the innermost part of the Seventh Prince''s body.


    The Seventh Prince did not dare move as he raised his head and begged Feng Qing Cheng with tears in his eyes. Disregarding the stench that assaulted his nostrils, Feng Qing Cheng still looked calmly at the other party''s fearful eyes.


    "Your mother killed my mother. My revenge, this is very reasonable." Feng Qing Cheng raised his head and looked at the wall, which was sprinkled with blood.


    Seventh Prince wanted to say something and pulled Feng Qing Cheng''s gaze back, then Feng Qing Cheng made a silent gesture.


    "Be a good person in your next life."


    Seventh Prince made wuwu sounds, his eyes widened in dissatisfaction. In the next second, Feng Qing Cheng had already slit his lips, and Seventh Prince had lost his breath and collapsed on the ground.


    Feng Qing Cheng let out an inaudible sigh, took off his long robe, and covered Seventh Prince''s body as he turned around to leave the Sky Prison.


    In the Sky Prison, blood was flowing like a river, the trusted guard following behind Feng Qing Cheng.


    The other prison warden, who was waiting at the door, trembled in fear when he heard the cry for help. When he saw Feng Qing Cheng coming out, he looked as if he had seen death.


    "You''ve worked hard." The other guard came over and wanted to give something to the guard. The guard''s face was full of smile. He thought that the guard was paying him to keep his mouth shut but he didn''t expect that he would be met with a cold steel knife.


    Feng Qing Cheng didn''t even look at the blade as he stabbed it into the jailer''s soft abdomen.


    "Only the dead can keep secrets." The jailer said, and the knife went into his stomach. He killed himself.


    After leaving the dark and gloomy Sky Prison, Feng Qing Cheng did not relax at all. It was as if he had suffered a great torture to himself.


    The dagger that had killed him was still at his waist. The blood on it had already congealed, so he was not afraid of the dirt. He pulled it out and wiped the blood off with his sleeve, staring at the snowflake in a daze.


    Right now, he really wanted to kill one person, the indirect killer of his own mother. The man who treated him as a debauchee among the people, was the current emperor!


    Feng Qing Cheng didn''t have any feelings for her father, she only wanted to kill that man.


    Maybe it was the arrangement of fate, Feng Qing Cheng raised his head and looked into the emperor''s eyes. He was initially calm, but upon seeing him, he immediately became happy, as if he was about to melt these ice shards.


    "You ¡­" He had originally planned to visit the Seventh Prince in the dungeon today, and ask him what his intentions were. He didn''t expect to see Feng Qing Cheng.


    At this time, Feng Qing Cheng''s body was filled with a violent aura and there was no doubt of his beauty. He did not say anything as he stared in front of him with an indifferent gaze. He was not surprised to find that not a single trace of fear could be seen in his eyes. Weng! * The dagger was pulled out. Feng Qing Cheng lowered his head slightly and caressed the dagger with a bit of affection. It was as if he was looking at a peerless beauty.


    The tip of the dagger was pointed towards the emperor. Feng Qing Cheng tilted his head, revealing a ridiculing smile.


    Swish! Swish! The guard soundlessly appeared in front of everyone. With his hand on his waist, the sharp blade within was ready to be unsheathed at any moment.


    "What are you all doing? Will my son still harm me?" The four guards looked at each other, but did not let their guard down.


    "You''re right, today I want to kill you! In my eyes, you have already lived long enough. Feng Qing Cheng looked straight at the emperor, and then suddenly activated it, her legs were like the wind, and the dagger in one hand.


    The four guards had already guessed that something would happen and attacked at the same time. Seeing that Feng Qing Cheng was about to touch the emperor, but the attacks of the four guards still arrived, they had no choice but to retreat and block for a bit.


    The sound of metal striking metal could be heard. Feng Qing Cheng had cut open the throat of the father-in-law that the Emperor brought along. Crash, the tray in her grandfather''s hands fell to the ground.


    The eye-catching fresh blood that splattered onto the pure white snow was immediately corroded by the scalding blood. The four guards came to a tacit understanding with each other, causing Feng Qing Cheng to only have a few people left to defend himself. The emperor stood there, allowing the snow to wet his clothes. He had a complicated expression on his face, but he still stared at Feng Qing Cheng.


    Feng Qing Cheng took a few steps back. The people around the emperor were naturally the top experts, but every single one of them together could not be considered to be top-level experts.


    Feng Qing Cheng made a plan in his mind. He first glanced at the emperor, then quickly rushed towards the emperor, leaving behind a bunch of firm footprints in the snow. After running two steps, he suddenly stopped, causing a wave of snow to rise.


    The guard''s mind was entirely focused on the emperor, who knew that Feng Qing Cheng would suddenly rush out from the side, and stabbed the dagger into the softest of abdomen, slashing it twice, and stabbing it a few times, until the guard stopped breathing. Feng Qing Cheng covered his eyes, and pulled the blade out.

 C361

    Without that damned cooperation, the balance of victory seemed to tilt towards Feng Qing Cheng. However, Feng Qing Cheng still did not dare to look down on his opponent.


    The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and had a vague feeling that it was going to wrap around the entire palace. As his feet stepped on the snow, a rustling sound could be heard, as well as the sound of death.


    Just then, the emperor suddenly laughed out loud, he roared towards the sky, it was so carefree, the laughter came from the bottom of his heart, needless to say Feng Qing Cheng, even the guards beside the emperor, had never seen the emperor laugh so happily.


    "I remember the last time, the Emperor was so happy because he found Feng Qing Cheng. This time, it was also because of him." Are you crazy? You''re about to die and you''re still smiling so happily. " Feng Qing Cheng, finally, could not hold it in and asked. At this time, his eyes revealed the curiosity of a child, and in that instant, he recovered completely.


    When the emperor heard this, he stopped laughing, and then looked at Feng Qing Cheng. His expression was full of gratification, and only a little bit of sadness remained between his brows. The guards took advantage of the triangular formation and surrounded Feng Qing Cheng.


    "Don''t hurt my son!" Seeing that the guards were ready to attack Feng Qing Cheng, the Emperor quickly stopped them. He thought to himself, if I die, it doesn''t matter, I can''t let Qingcheng get hurt at all.


    At this moment, the guards started to hesitate. Their duty was to protect the emperor, but they didn''t dare to disobey. Swish! His dagger had sliced through the neck of a guard and severed his arteries. Until the moment of his death, he had never imagined that his master would be so confused.


    As a vassal, the king wants the vassal to die, but the vassal has no choice but to die.


    Looking at Feng Qing Cheng''s cold and heartless appearance and arrogant expression, the emperor was especially happy.


    His life was ruined by a single word: love. What the Emperor liked the most was that whenever his son revealed such a merciless expression, he didn''t want his son to be like him, trapped by feelings and hurt by feelings.


    Feng Qing Cheng didn''t feel the slightest bit of guilt. Even if the person he was going to kill was his royal father, wasn''t he also the one who wanted to kill him a long time ago? Moreover, he was determined to win the throne.


    The snowflakes were drifting about in the air, as though they were the witnesses of a tragic scene. After today, the history of the kingdom was destined to be changed. Only one person survived here.


    This man died defending himself, but where was he when I was a child, when I lived like a beggar, when we were threatened?


    The sharp dagger had absorbed enough blood today, but it hadn''t eaten its fill yet. At this moment, the dagger pierced through yet another guard. Warm blood gushed out, evaporating layer after layer of heat.


    Perhaps today, the final victor would be Feng Qing Cheng.


    "Qingcheng, don''t be moved by my death, and don''t miss me one day. Continue to sit on that unmoved you, don''t be entangled in emotions." While the guards and Feng Qing Cheng were fighting, the emperor was by their side whispering to each other. The east wind blew his words into a mess.


    He was from the bottom of his heart. He could even pull out his heart, that red beating heart, and not lie.


    Feng Qing Cheng moved his hand extremely quickly, and as long as he held on, there was only one thing he could do, and that was to become an overlord. He could then meet the thinking Jiu Er, and in this emotionless world, everyone wanted to kill him, and only Jiu Er could make him feel warmth.


    That devastatingly beautiful smile, that neat green skirt, that slim waist, with such difficulty one could see that smiling face. Feng Qing Cheng, his eyes were indifferent.


    The white silk clothes were draped over Feng Qing Cheng''s body, like a white crane that was about to fly away with the wind at any time. When Feng Qing Cheng finally stood still again, only five corpses were left on the ground.


    "You''re going to die." Feng Qing Cheng lifted his eyes. Those eyes were deep and complicated, and the words that came out were still as cold as ever.


    "I am not afraid. To be able to die in the hands of my beloved son, I can finally rest in peace." The emperor, looked somewhat old, but he was still resolute as he looked at Feng Qing Cheng with a smile.


    "There shouldn''t have been any interaction between us." He glanced at the corpse on the ground and continued, "I treat you as a stranger."


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his dagger and arrived in front of the emperor. Under the pressure of the dagger, the emperor still did not make a move. At this moment, the emperor seemed to really be a father who was wholeheartedly trying to help his son. This made Feng Qing Cheng mutter in his heart.


    "Why are you pretending?" The emperor, however, did nothing. He just stood there quietly, waiting to be killed.


    Feng Qing Cheng had killed him, and he was not a good talker, instead, he was more like a Confucian gentleman. He did not know how to express his feelings, and could only use his most passionate, sincere, and personal feelings, hoping that his son would understand him.


    "As long as you are well, it''s fine. You want this, I''ll give you the title of emperor." The Emperor took off his dragon robe. However, he was afraid that he would say too much. Feng Qing Cheng gave up.


    The strong wind whistled, bringing with it layers of snowflakes. Feng Qing Cheng and the Emperor looked at each other speechlessly, both wanting to see the other''s heart clearly.


    Feng Qing Cheng was even colder than snow. He had anticipated this day for a long time already, and the boundless rage he felt just now had finally found the place to vent.


    "What else can I do?" The dagger pierced into the emperor''s arm, the emperor just gritted his teeth and remained silent. Feng Qing Cheng then pulled the dagger out.


    "You deserve it." With that, Feng Qing Cheng pointed the dagger at the emperor''s head, then stopped in front of his nose. Ignoring the fact that his white robe had been dyed red by blood, Feng Qing Cheng''s white robe fluttered in the wind. The two were still in a stalemate, the last thing Feng Qing Cheng wanted to hear was the Emperor telling him that he was wrong.


    The dagger slid down, and in the next second, with a plop, it stabbed into the emperor''s stomach. Dark red blood flowed from the corner of the emperor''s mouth, and he let out a whooshing sound before he laughed.


    I like it best. Your ruthlessness will not change even when you die.


    Snowflakes fell. The blade did not pierce the vital parts, and Feng Qing Cheng would not let the emperor die so easily.


    He pulled out the dagger, fresh blood dripping from it. The Emperor held his stomach and took a step back. At this moment, the old man who had been sitting in the great hall with his majestic body had already entered the normal state of an old man. His back was hunched, and he couldn''t withstand a single blow.

 C362

    The plate that Eunuch had just been carrying was scattered on the floor. There was a silver wine jug and a cup; it was the poison wine that the Emperor intended to bestow to the Seventh Prince. Feng Qing Cheng lifted it to take a sniff and still laughed coldly. The silver plate was covered with a thin layer of snow and the cup was half filled with pure white snow.


    The poisoned wine, representing death, was then poured out from the cup and placed in front of the emperor. The slightly red poisonous wine was slightly seductive, as if it was a cup of diluted blood, which complemented the current scene.


    The Emperor''s hair was slightly messy as he panted heavily. His dragon robe was like a golden python lying dormant on the ground. He was only wearing a purple silk robe and looked like an ordinary person.


    The emperor naturally knew how strong this wine was. After drinking it, within 15 minutes, all his internal organs would be injured and he would die with blood flowing out of his eyes, ears, noses, and mouth.


    "Drink it and we''ll never owe each other again." Feng Qing Cheng nodded at the emperor, with an indifferent expression, as though he was watching him die. The emperor did not hesitate as he received the bottle of poison wine and finished it in one gulp. He staggered a few steps backwards and almost fell to the ground in the middle of the snow shell while smiling.


    The snow had lost its soles and the whole world was covered in white. The emperor was trying his best to resist the pain in his body and the churning of his stomach. Unknowingly, his face had turned sickly white.


    Feng Qing Cheng never thought that the man in front of him would not hesitate to offer poison wine to him ¡­ This was something he hadn''t expected. For a moment, his heart shook. He blankly looked at the emperor, his shocked expression breaking his usual coldness.


    "You are the prince that I admire the most. After I die, it will be my wish that you ascend to the throne." The emperor forced a smile on his face, but it immediately caused him to grimace in pain. He then sucked in a breath of cold air. His hair was already matted with ice and the corpses had been unknowingly buried by the snow.


    It was windy, Feng Qing Cheng looked a little thin in the wind, the palace feathers behind him seemed to be devouring his body, "Don''t be hypocritical." After Feng Qing Cheng finished speaking, he tightly shut his lips. Towards the dying Emperor, he did not even blink.


    "Why would I lie? I''m the emperor!" "Cough, cough." The emperor was slightly anxious. After all, he didn''t have much time left.


    The emperor spat out a mouthful of blood. He sat limply on the ground, without caring about the blood trail at the corner of his mouth. He opened his cloudy eyes and looked at Feng Qing Cheng. He wanted to take one last look at his beloved son, even if it was only one, and think back to all that had happened in the past.


    "Finally, I''m free?" The emperor hazily looked at the sky. He couldn''t tell if it was day or night. Blood dripped down, and he could even see the snowflake falling. It was so beautiful!


    The reaction of the poison wasn''t too intense, but it was very torturous. The emperor only felt his liver break.


    "If I find you one day earlier, you will hate me one less day, right?" The emperor chuckled. He looked thin because his life force was rapidly fading. In an instant, he felt a sense of loneliness amidst the snow.


    "Didn''t you just want me dead? Didn''t you send people to kill me?" Feng Qing Cheng looked straight into the emperor''s eyes. What was strange was that he couldn''t see a single trace of guilt in his eyes.


    One must know that Feng Qing Cheng''s mother was the most beloved woman in his life, so how could he harden his heart?


    "It''s laughable that I didn''t know of your existence before, otherwise, you wouldn''t be so hateful to me. Please believe that I love you, and I also love your mother. The emperor, this middle-aged man, had finally revealed the weakness of his life.


    The Emperor felt tired, tired, as if nothing else in his life had hurt him so much, and his tight eyebrows were loose, but he was not at ease. He hated that in his entire life, if there was an afterlife, he would abandon everything and would only fight with her in the martial arts world. He would walk with her in the snow and never have the troubles of the human world again.


    In this life, it took him half a lifetime to understand that power and desire were like smoke passing through the clouds. There was only one woman, and in this world there was only one woman.


    The Emperor''s words, however, caused Feng Qing Cheng to be alarmed, and he replayed the memories in his mind. The Seventh Prince''s seductive face, and his boastful expression.


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his head to look at the sky. Only the dark clouds were moving and the air was so cold that it made people want to cry.


    "After knowing about your existence, I will do everything I can to give you. I only want to make up for it a bit. I only want to do my father''s duty." The Emperor was choked with sobs as tears flowed down from the man''s eyes. Sparkling tears hung on his weathered face, causing others to be moved.


    BOOM! As if another ball of fire had rushed into his heart, blazing fiercely, Feng Qing Cheng retracted his gaze, and a complicated look appeared in his eyes. Don''t open your eyes and stop looking at this man... There''s too much between them...


    "You sent people to kill me, what do you mean by that?" Feng Qing Cheng took a deep breath, picked up the dragon robe, and dusted off the snow on top of it.


    "I don''t know anything about them. Empress, my beloved concubine, I won''t let them off after I find out." The Emperor had a dejected expression. Why did it have to be like this?


    Snow fell from the dragon''s robe. It was white as a sheet, and the falling snowflakes were like the years that had passed.


    Feng Qing Cheng was exceptionally angry, but his happiness and anger did not match up to his looks. On the surface, it was still as cold as ever, but what he thought about was how he managed to tear the Seventh Prince into a thousand pieces.


    Feng Qing Cheng stood there like a block of ice, without a single trace of emotion. He looked extremely clever, as if he was the person in the painting, but if one looked carefully, they would see that the emperor was actually quite similar.


    "If you die, I will take good care of Wind Nation. Is this what you have always wished for?" Feng Qing Cheng took a step forward. Dragon Robe, which should have belonged to the emperor, draped over the dying emperor.


    At the moment, the emperor could only let out a breath, and his eyes started to blur. Actually, Feng Qing Cheng also regretted it, but he had no way of turning the situation around. He guessed that this would be a good idea as it would make his son feel guilty and accompany him for a long time. As such, he felt a surge of warmth in his heart.


    The emperor''s body seemed to have merged with the snow, and the heavy snow that filled the sky, his son personally sending him off was the emperor''s last comfort.


    Snow fluttered down again, Feng Qing Cheng walked further and further away from this place. He shook off the dagger in his hand, and the snow covered the ground, as if nothing had ever happened here.


    "Your majesty is dead!" An eunuch ran over from the distance, using his raspy voice like a rooster to shout at the top of his lungs, "Seventh Prince''s remnants assassinated the emperor, the emperor ¡ª he passed away ¡ª"

 C363

    When the emperor was on his way to visit the seventh prince, he was killed by the seventh prince''s remnants, killed by those vile and disorderly officials. This news immediately spread throughout the entire imperial palace.


    Bang Your majesty, passed away?


    In one night, Feng Qing Cheng arrested all of the Seventh Prince''s subordinates. There were a total of 23 officials, and they were dealt with according to different laws. The family was in exile for a thousand miles, while the servants and girls sold into the brothels. The men sold. The news of the Emperor''s death that had accompanied it throughout the night had caused panic in the hearts of the people, causing everyone to feel insecure.


    The commoners shut their doors tightly. Listening to the wails and screams outside, their hearts were torn and their lungs were torn. Torches were like flaming snakes as they roamed the various alleyway and mansions! This was going to change the weather ¡­ Only when dawn broke did the outside world become quiet.


    The commoners left their homes less often and did not dare to walk through the streets, afraid that they would be implicated! The dancing and singing shops were also shut down, and the brothels were in charge ¡­ Most of the Wind Nation was silent. There were bloodstains all over the road, blending well with learning. How could there be a court in the palace without the emperor?


    The palace guards quickly covered the entire palace with white silk, making it hard to distinguish them from the falling snow. The harem was the most bustling place, and the women were all crying as they surrounded them. They were all concubines that had never been pregnant before, and with Feng Qing Cheng''s words, all fifteen of them, of all sizes, died with him!


    The youngest was fifteen years old, who had just entered the palace this year to be pampered; the oldest was about thirty, and it was here that he faced peace.


    A few expressionless guards surrounded them with spears in their hands, waiting for orders. A short, fat man walked in. His lustful eyes glanced at his concubines, and with a poke of his plump hand, he saw an elder trying to curry favor with him. "Eunuch, is two hours enough?"


    "Enough, enough ¡­" The fat man hurriedly nodded and ordered his men, "All of you go down. I heard that there''s a partner of the Seventh Prince here. Pah! Nonsense, the Seventh Prince!"


    "..." "Yes." The leader of the soldiers listened to every single one of their words and brought his men out with a slight hesitation. Not long after, the sound of men''s breathing and the screams of women could be heard. Two hours later, the guard was led in and found that all fifteen women were naked. The older ones had died from colliding with the wall, and some of the women trembled as they said, "As long as you let us go, we will do anything!"


    Right now, the palace was truly in chaos. It was not a problem to quietly live a few more people. The imperial concubines were all exceptionally beautiful, and now that they were asked about survival, they could do anything. A trace of pity and sympathy flashed in the leader''s eyes. Like their hands, their subordinates immediately stabbed them to death.


    They all said that the palace was good, but it could turn a girl into a phoenix overnight ¡­ He walked to the side room and saw the chunky man lying on the bed with a satisfied smile on his face. As if he was resting, as if he was faking sleep, he walked over and stabbed him to death when he caught him off guard. The man opened his eyes wide and stared at the ice blade on his abdomen. He stared at the person in disbelief. "You ¡­"


    "Bastard!"


    "Ahh!" The eunuch screamed, "You! You actually killed ¡­"


    "Kill who? "This is the work of a bandit, it has nothing to do with me."


    "Pu!" The eunuch glared at his abdomen. The ice blade flew over and pierced through his body ¡­


    "Withdraw." The man shouted and looked towards the sky, hoping that the future emperor of the Wind Nation would not be so lustful. At this moment, what should have been a magnificent and magnificent meeting hall was now a scene of solemn and dignified decorations. As for the things that the late emperor loved, they had all been removed and replaced with solemn and solemn white lotuses.


    Feng Qing Cheng, dressed in all black robes, sat in the main hall. He coldly glanced at the people around him. ''s jet-black robe fluttered in the breeze as if she was performing a grand elegiac song.


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his eyebrows, like a full moon, no one knew what he was thinking about.


    "This old official has the gall to say that the country cannot afford to lose a ruler, and to invite the fourth prince to ascend to the throne." A official said. He was Feng Qing Cheng''s trusted aide. After hearing this, Feng Qing Cheng gently raised the corner of his eyes, his pitch black pupils becoming indifferent.


    "The last wish of the late king was also to ascend to the throne as everyone wished." Another official tactfully stood out, wanting to win Feng Qing Cheng''s favor. Towards them, the ministers of Feng Qing Cheng''s bloodline already knew the outcome, so there was no need for them to act.


    Seeing Feng Qing Cheng''s silence, all the ministers spoke in unison, "Fourth Prince, please ascend the throne."


    said as he sat down on the ground, "royal father has only left now. As this son of yours, ascending the throne right now is truly an unfilial act. Let''s talk about it after royal father''s funeral."


    "Yes." The ministers seconded. The court ministers silently left. The eunuchs and palace maids cast a glance at each other before they left as well. The night was slightly cold, and the snow was melting bit by bit. The late emperor stopped in his sleeping quarters, and the guards stood by his side day and night.


    There were too many things that needed to be handed over after a new dragon robe had been tied up overnight. After spending an entire night worth of papers, Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes were still as sharp as the stars.


    According to the old rules, the late emperor''s corpse must be suspended for 999 hours, which meant that it had returned to the same body. It was a good thing that he could release it today. Feng Qing Cheng did not look at the cold corpse anymore. The past would pass, and if he looked too long, his face would become like a midnight nightmare.


    Unknowingly, the snow had stopped falling and the cold air had followed it. Wearing a long robe that carried a bit of the scent of ink, Feng Qing Cheng stepped on the snow and everything that happened yesterday seemed like a lifetime ago. Feng Qing Cheng stood with his hands behind his back.


    "So what if you have obtained mountains and rivers? This myriad of beautiful flowers only lasted for an instant." In the distant horizon, her face could vaguely be seen. It was the face of the woman that he had been yearning for day and night.


    Men are ridiculous, love rivers and mountains, love beauties even more. If no one disturbed him, he would probably stand here for a long time, until a soft cry escaped his lips.


    "Fourth Prince, the Daoist has been waiting for a long time." It was the duckling eunuch.


    Only then did Feng Qing Cheng wave her sleeves, and looked longingly at the horizon, in her mind still reflecting her peerless beauty.


    Since the Ancient Emperor''s Tomb, it had usually been built when he ascended the throne. The late Emperor''s Tomb was still under construction, so he had no choice but to be hastily buried. There were many things to be paid attention to when the Emperor was buried.


    The Daoist priest in charge of the emperor''s burial was also invited. The old man with long, white hair knew that he had reached the end of his life and felt like he had transcended the mundane world.

 C364

    Upon entering the reception hall, he saw the old Daoist Chi Mu, who was dressed in an Immortal bone Daoist robe. His hair was white, and his hair was tied up very high as she sat there cross-legged. Hearing that the Fourth Prince had arrived, the old Daoist opened his eyes and shot a cold gaze straight at Feng Qing Cheng. In his eyes, there was a transcendence.


    The old Daoist bowed towards Feng Qing Cheng, and was slightly surprised that the future emperor would actually have such a beautiful appearance, "Calm down, the matter of the Emperor''s funeral was arranged perfectly. Fourth Prince, don''t worry." The old Daoist gently flung the horsetail whisk in his hand and landed on the ground. He then used the horsetail whisk to sweep away the dust on his body.


    "Let''s go immediately, this commoner will be busy." This old man also had a bit of a temper, so he walked out without saying anything. Feng Qing Cheng looked at him coldly, and then followed him. Early in the morning, Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui and Dong Zhu into the palace. Prince Xian initially wanted to accompany his but she rejected him, so he could rest in his residence properly. Prince Xian could only helplessly agree to let Xi Jiu Er have a good rest in the palace. He believed that with his intelligence, nothing would happen to Xi Jiu Er in the palace.


    When Dong Zhu mentioned entering the palace, she immediately thought back to that scene. If she hadn''t rushed in time, she would have definitely been executed by the hypersensitive. Even now, she still had some lingering fears. This time, she swore to herself that she would not run around rashly again. She would only cause trouble to her master and also wound herself.


    When he arrived at the entrance of the palace, he discovered that there were many carriages going in and out. When he arrived at the Third Palace door, Xi Jiu Er discovered many women and Miss thought that it was possible that this Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was going to pick a woman again, so the Prince Xian told her that in the past, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge would always make him find excuses for some floral feast, for the poetry gathering and so on. The reason was to pick a woman. As for why they didn''t want to publicize it, it was probably because they feared that others would say that she was too lustful.


    The Prince Xian was one of the topics of discussion for the women in the Daxing. When the Prince Xian went to take a look, he actually brought back a woman, and this woman was very similar to the Princess Laifu. The main point was that she was pregnant with a child of the Prince Xian!


    When Xi Jiu Er got off the carriage, everyone looked over at him, but unfortunately, Xi Jiu Er was wearing a rolling cloak, so her body couldn''t be seen from the side, and could only see that her ears were sparkling and translucent under the bun, and that the pearl earrings were full and round. Just looking at her silhouette was enough to make one think that she was a girl who matched up with the Prince Xian, and at that moment, not a single woman could be seen.


    However, the women knew that they had lost because of her charm, and did not even see her face. It was said that the Princess Laifu was not very pretty, and they did not know what the lady in front of them looked like.


    Xi Jiu Er felt the surrounding gazes, and turned her head to look at everyone, since everyone was so curious, she had satisfied them. Sure enough, everyone was very disappointed. Other than her excellent skin, he wasn''t outstanding at all! However, they had no choice but to admit that the noble aura exuded by the girl in front of them was not something ordinary people could touch. It was noble and cold.


    With Mubai hosting the banquet, more and more things would happen to Mubai. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge would pass more and more of the matters at the harem to her to settle, other than her title of Empress, she had used up all her authority as the Empress. Mubai didn''t have her usual gorgeous attire. Today, she dressed especially casually, removing the exquisite makeup on her face. Instead, she looked even more young, her bearing and might even more.


    There were also a few empress along with the Mubai. They were all beauties, and each had their own unique characteristics. Being the emperor was good enough. Seeing these pleasing beauties made even a woman like her unable to refrain from daydreaming, let alone a man. Sigh * Suddenly thinking about Feng Qing Cheng, no man could resist such a temptation.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was stung once again, and her expression changed slightly as Dong Zhu took a fancy to him: "Madame, are you alright?"


    "I''m fine."


    Xi Jiu Er was the Prince Xian of the Prince Xian. Even if the Madame was a concubine, the Mubai and the Emperor knew Xi Jiu Er''s true identity very well. And since Xi Jiu Er had saved Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, her status would naturally be treated with respect, so she was treated with courtesy.


    After entering one after another, a girl''s clear voice rang out from the crowd. Upon hearing the voice, one could tell that she was a sweet beauty, yet the words she spoke did not have a brain.


    "She is the concubinage that Prince Xian found? A mere concubinage actually sat at the head of the guests, truly too shameless. " These words were said in a schadenfreude manner. Some looked disdainfully at the young girl, while others looked terrified.


    Xi Jiu Er put down the teacup and slowly looked at the girl. An extremely beautiful girl, even more beautiful than the Xi Wan Rong of the past. She was already so beautiful when she was about thirteen or fourteen years old, so how amazing would she become in the future? After carefully dressing himself up, he appeared exceptionally outstanding. Within the group of beauty in the skirt, he was truly outstanding and extremely eye-catching.


    "Impudent! This is the emperor''s decree. It''s my intention as well. How can a little girl like you be so blabbering over such a small order?" Xi Family shouted, and everyone in the hall went silent. Xi Family Xi Wan Feng had poisoned her twin sister, even if this woman was not from Xi Family, she should still be disgusted by her similarity to Xi Jiu Er, why would she protect her?


    The woman''s face was flushed red. It was unknown if it was due to embarrassment or anger, but her small face was extremely beautiful. The order was only a small fifth-grade, and all the women who came were excellent. He then heard someone from the crowd mock him, "How is she so knowledgeable about the world, does she even dare to spout nonsense like this Madame? In the end, Mrs. IX was magnanimous and did not want to argue with her. If it was me, I would definitely slap her face and tell her how to learn how to speak. "


    Xi Jiu Er looked over. The one who spoke was a round-faced girl with a delicate nose and small lips. Xi Jiu Er smiled, for these girls secretly fighting with her was like watching a show, as long as it did not implicate him.


    The girl bit her lips. Her mother hurriedly apologized to Mubai and Xi Jiu Er, Xi Jiu Er faintly ''didn''t know she was innocent'', but these words were already ridiculing the girl. She didn''t even understand such simple common sense, could there be something wrong with her head? Didn''t she think that she wouldn''t even be able to distinguish between the two of them?


    The girl''s face turned even redder as everyone around her secretly laughed and ridiculed her. Xi Jiu Er felt bored, she stood up and said that her body was not comfortable to walk around, Mubai walked over and pulled her hand and said softly: I have come to show you.


    "Watching people?" Xi Jiu Er did not understand. Only then did the Mubai say: "You have to choose a woman to marry into the Hulk to get married to the First Prince."


    Marriage? "Xi Jiu Er''s brows twitched, this Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge can still hold it in, the Hulk can still scheme and kill him easily, he is not such a magnanimous person!" There are so many of you here, yet you do not miss me! "


    "The emperor and I feel that your eyes are very good. The people you choose must be very good, so we asked you to come over and take a look. Just in case you find some money-losing goods to pay for them." Mubai laughed, his expression as sincere as that of a friend, with a pleading look on his face as he pulled them back. Everyone saw that they were holding hands very intimately, and was getting more and more ingratiating to him.

 C365

    After everyone had arrived, the floral feast began to move.


    The women were all colorful, and this time, the floral feast and the other female disciples were not aware of the internal affairs, they only thought that there was a chance for Qing Yun to win the hearts of Mubai and the others, and because the girls were jealous of each other, they used all their abilities to make themselves the center of attention, and win the hearts of the Mubai and the rest.


    Mubai smiled as he looked at them, seemingly very satisfied with everyone. His gaze swept across the girls as he joyfully said, "All of you are good, all of you are good." They were coaxing him as they laughed.


    Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er''s gaze landed on an inconspicuous corner. The woman quietly hid herself at the side, as if the floral feast was not even the slightest bit related to her. Xi Jiu Er waved her hand, and the palace maids by his side immediately came over and whispered: "Mrs. IX?"


    "Who is that girl?" Xi Jiu Er''s lower jaw was raised slightly, the palace maid glanced over and immediately retracted his gaze: "She is a Zhou Family Miss, born with a concubine, her name is Zhou Yao."


    "Born as a concubine? Isn''t this something that only the direct disciples can participate in? " Xi Jiu Er listened to the girls'' conversation and pointed out a little, those that the Mubai had found were all direct disciples of the Miss. That palace maid continued in a low voice: "She was originally the direct descendant, but when the mother was in trouble, she was taken care of and she became a concubine."


    On the other hand, Xi Jiu Er had heard of the storm that had swept through the city. It was said that her husband had caught her in bed this week, so Lord Zhou decided to divorce her out of anger. When she returned to her parents'' home, her husband killed himself.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Zhou Yao. She was pretty and charming, her facial features did not look as pretty as the other girls, but instead had an indescribable grandeur. Their four eyes met, and Xi Jiu Er gave her a friendly smile. Zhou Yao also smiled slightly, with a trace of bashfulness.


    Xi Jiu Er had set her eyes on fate the moment she laid eyes on her. It was said that a hundred flowers were beautiful, but today, she had the direct daughter''s fighting skills. Seeing them fight openly and secretly, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was boring and took her leave. The palace maid returned to her side and said softly, "Mrs. IX asked Servant Zhou, Miss Zhou Yao."


    Mubai''s smile did not decrease as he looked at the girls. Which Zhou Yao? " Following the palace maid''s line of sight, she saw a young girl sitting in a corner. Her appearance wasn''t very outstanding and she was submerged in a pile of beauties. If one didn''t look carefully, it would be impossible to notice. Xi Jiu Er''s eyes had always been sharp and ruthless. Mubai had paid attention to her many times. One could tell that she was an extremely dignified woman.


    "Which one did the Empress take a fancy to?" the palace maid asked with a smile.


    Mubai''s smile became lighter: "They are not easy to deal with. The reason they are working so hard is because they want to climb onto the dragon bed." Glimmers danced in his eyes as he looked at a girl beside him who was eating happily. This was the new woman that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had found ¡­ He sneered coldly.


    The lady ate happily, then she suddenly retched, her small face immediately becoming pale, raising her head to touch Mubai''s smiling yet not smiling face, the color of her face disappearing completely.


    "Little sister, what happened to you?" But what''s wrong with my body? Do you want me to call the imperial physician over for you to take a look? " Mubai asked in concern, and did not let anyone see anything amiss. The woman hurriedly shook her head and said in panic, "No, there''s no need ¡­ "I''ve eaten too much."


    "You really can eat too much." The one who mocked him was another beauties from the harem. She watched the performance of the young girls below for a long time. Their young faces and beautiful bodies ¡­ Her eyes turned red. She really wanted to kill all these foxes, so she vented her anger on the person beside her.


    The lady''s face turned red, and Mubai said indifferently: "Since you''re not feeling well, you should go to the imperial physician. The emperor has asked me to temporarily replace him with the position of one of the six palaces, I can''t neglect this."


    "Elder sister, there''s really no need." The lady resolutely shook her head. Without explanation, the Mubai ordered: "You just watch over this place first."


    "Elder sister, please go ahead. Nothing will happen if you have a younger sister." She had wanted to take care of all these small hooves a long time ago. When Mubai left, she would be the one who saved the most, hmph.


    "Elder sister ¡­" The woman was so frightened that she didn''t know what to do. The Mubai completely ignored her and instructed the palace maids to find an imperial physician. In a short while, the imperial physician arrived.


    "This matter can definitely be exposed. If this gets out, I will definitely not let this matter go easily." Mubai ordered, "You may leave."


    A month''s time, she had only been in the palace for a month and a half and she was already a month''s time? The Mubai asked coldly, "Is this child the Emperor''s?"


    "It''s, it''s the Emperor''s." The lady''s eyes drifted away, not daring to look at Mubai. Mubai sneered: "Alright, then let''s find the emperor for a confrontation. We''ll know once we ask."


    The lady suddenly raised her head and looked at Mubai as she pleaded, "Don''t ¡­ Young Lady Mubai... "Don''t..."


    "Speak!" Mubai took care. After listening to the girl''s vulgar story, the childhood sweetheart could do nothing about her parents'' aversion to poverty and wealth preventing her from doing so. She would listen to the suggestions of others to send her to the palace! The Mubai asked curiously, "How did you avoid the Emperor?"


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was an expert in women, would he know the difference between real and fake? How could she deceive him? The woman said in a low voice: "Please allow me, let the palace maid take my place ¡­ "Then..."


    I understand. "The Mubai said expressionlessly:" You are truly too audacious. If this matter were to go to the Emperor, do you know what the consequences would be? Even your parents were not spared. "


    "Young Lady Mubai ¡­" She didn''t know what to say, telling the Mubai not to report her? Impossible, Mubai has no reason to hide this for me ¡­ His face turned ashen, and he looked at the ground without saying a word.


    "The man you like is just a good-for-nothing in my eyes. He knows full well that you have an intimate relationship with him, yet he is not responsible. If he insists on your marriage, it will definitely work. I''ve seen your parents, and although they are a bit more snobbish, they still truly care for you a bit. " The Mubai said indifferently. Giving the old palace maid a glance, the old palace maid quietly retreated.


    The lady bit her lips. Mubai was right, if the other party was willing to agree to this marriage, then it would be fine. He just kept saying how to love himself and how to run away in the face of difficulties. How could he not resent this in his heart? When he went back to visit his parents after getting favoured, he came back because he was considering the future of the officials.


    "Drink this and pretend that I don''t know anything. You better take care of yourself in the future!" Mubai gave a bottle to her and left. Xi Jiu Er saw this scene from afar and both and Drain were guessing what the two had said.

 C366

    Dong Zhu said in a low voice: "I think she did something wrong and Young Lady Mubai is currently punishing her." Dong Zhu had a good impression of Mubai, and Mubai was kind to him on account of Jiu Er''s face.


    "Not necessarily ¡­ "Sob, sob ¡­" Liu Shui was holding onto a plate of heart food happily, looking at the distance he pursed his lips. She was extremely clear about the character of the Mubai, was she that kind? Probably not!


    "You guys have a lot to do." Xi Jiu Er laughed: "No matter what, it doesn''t matter to us."


    When he returned at night, the Prince Xian was already looking forward to it. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s tired eyes, he asked with concern: "Are you tired?"


    "Nope." Xi Jiu Er replied.


    Prince Xian came early to look for her. He gave a gentle smile as a thick palm rested on Xi Jiu Er''s shoulder, and laughed heartily: "The weather today is not bad, so don''t be bored.


    Prince Xian crossed his legs and acted like a prince. He moved closer to Xi Jiu Er''s ear as if they were some kind of secret, exhaled the warm air, and said mysteriously.


    "Let''s go, just the two of us."


    "You wish." Xi Jiu Er was resolute and decisive, her cherry lips pouted, as if she was smiling yet not smiling: "What kind of place is there in the sky for you to step on?"


    "Let''s go. You should walk around a lot since you''re pregnant. Let''s see how good Tian''er is today." laughed and said, "Go, Madame. The weather is very rare and good. Servant heard that pregnant women moving around will help with their future births, "Mu Xuanyin said in a cold tone.


    This last sentence had hit the nail on the head. Based on his lazy personality, it would definitely hinder his production. Forget it, Tian''er is not bad today. I will follow Prince Xian out to meet you.


    Xi Jiu Er''s simple dressing of a woman could not hide the noble aura on her body. Instead, she looked at Prince Xian who was beside her who was still running with a fiery red face, and said unhappily: "Can''t you change your clothes? "Let''s see how unsuitable we can be!"


    Prince Xian was startled, his gaze moved back and forth between the two of them. In comparison to Xi Jiu Er''s attire, he felt that she was too ¡­ It was a bit gorgeous. He hurriedly said, "Wait a moment, I''ll go change it now. It will only take 15 minutes."


    Not even fifteen minutes had passed when he saw Prince Xian dressed in white robes flying over. Xi Jiu Er was slightly startled. This was the first time she saw the Prince Xian wearing a white robe. Compared to Feng Qing Cheng''s deity, he had a unique temperament that seemed both evil and evil.


    "Isn''t it, it looks very good, I was stunned ¡­" The Prince Xian laughed sinisterly, bringing with it an evil aura.


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips: "I don''t think so. "That''s all ¡­"


    Prince Xian laughed, "You are lying!"


    There were a lot of people along the way, so Xi Jiu Er and Prince Xian didn''t ride a carriage today as they walked leisurely. Their extraordinary bearing attracted the attention of many.


    When they arrived at the river bank, there was a sea of people. Basically, all of the young people in the city were touring the river. A few children were playing by the river, and their laughter could be heard.


    Xi Jiu Er and Prince Xian, who were dressed up as husband and wife by a god, looked at the two of them. She was really envious. The girl was dignified and elegant while the man was absolutely gorgeous ¡­ They were all guessing what kind of status the two of them had.


    "Prince Xian!" A boorish voice came from the river in the distance. At the same time, a huge boat approached. A noble young master stuck his head out and laughed heartily.


    "I didn''t expect to meet the Prince Xian here." The man cupped her hands and swept her gaze across Xi Jiu Er''s body without leaving a trace.


    "Young Master Zhao!"


    "This is my Mrs. IX." Seeing Young Master Zhao looking at Xi Jiu Er, Prince Xian introduced him with a smile and took the opportunity to hug Xi Jiu Er''s waist. In front of outsiders, Xi Jiu Er could not deny his face, she only pinched his waist hard, causing Prince Xian to immediately let go.


    "So it''s the Mrs. IX. She is indeed as virtuous and virtuous as the rumors say." After Young Master Zhao praised him for a few times, his gaze once again returned to Prince Xian.


    "I don''t know about the last time, but did Your Highness consider it properly?" Young Master Zhao seemed to want to say something, but hesitated. She looked at Xi Jiu Er, and still opened her mouth.


    Prince Xian also looked at Xi Jiu Er hesitantly, but he was also extremely intelligent. He replied obediently: "You guys go and talk, I''ll be waiting for you guys."


    "Jiu Er, wait for me." Waiting until the confirmed Prince Xian was in a good mood, he vaguely raised his eyebrows and boarded Young Master Zhao''s boat. After Prince Xian left, Xi Jiu Er strolled along the river side alone. Although it was crowded, her mind was very tranquil. Xi Jiu Er wore a white dress, and her pair of brilliant starlight eyes were enough to cause any man to be moved.


    Xi Jiu Er did not go too far, she was only at the shore, squatting down and stroking the river, her ten fingers long, water flowing between her fingers. A strong alcohol smell wafted into her nose, Xi Jiu Er immediately stood up and met a pair of lustful eyes.


    "I wonder which family the Madame is from. I wonder if you would be interested in enjoying watching the moon together with me." The drunkard said and even sent a message, trying to scheme against Xi Jiu Er.


    The pair of vulgar eyes sized up Xi Jiu Er''s impressive body, licking her lips, she revealed an evil smile.


    Xi Jiu Er did not move. A cool breeze blew past her face and her long hair fluttered in the air. She quietly took off her white jade hairpin and held it tightly in her hand. Xi Jiu Er coldly looked at the drunk man, which further aroused the flames of desire in her heart. Her thick mouth opened wide as she said a few rude words.


    "Come over here and play with big brother." A pair of dirty hands reached out towards Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er took a step back, while a river flowed behind her.


    From afar, another two people walked over shakily with their arms around the drunk man''s shoulders. They were clearly friends with each other, and the way they looked at Xi Jiu Er was filled with excitement without exception.


    ''s clothes fluttered in the wind, he looked like he was trying to keep people away from him. There were a few spectators around, but the three men in front of him did not dare show off.


    "I am a woman of the Prince Xian. If you know what''s good for you, get lost now." Xi Jiu Er raised her chin, her eyes suddenly becoming ice cubes.


    The three drunkards hesitated, everyone in Prince Xian knew about it, but they could not let it go when they saw the red blush on Xi Jiu Er''s face.


    "I am a hoodlum, and I don''t know where I will be tomorrow. Why would I be afraid of some bullshit prince?" Crime triumphs over reason. The other three drunkards were also struck dumb by the alcohol as they walked towards Xi Jiu Er step by step, slowly surrounding her.


    A trace of killing intent flashed past Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, she was still as fresh and refined as before, holding the hairpin firmly with her hand behind her back, her lips tightly closed without saying a word.

 C367

    Xi Jiu Er was forced into a corner, but she did not panic, her three thousand strands of green hair floating in the air.


    "Stop!" At the critical moment, a crisp voice sounded from behind them. Everyone turned their heads. A girl in a green skirt was holding a green paper umbrella in her hands, pointing the umbrella at the three hoodlums.


    The young girl was at a loss of what to do. She had a slender figure, but looked somewhat pitiful.


    "Little girl, is that you?" The biggest punk turned his head, breathing out alcohol as his gaze moved up and down the corner of the girl''s skirt.


    "You hooligans, let go of Mrs. IX!" Although the girl was a bit scared and shuddered at the start, she still spoke with determination.


    All around them were whispering to each other. Wasn''t this like a sheep entering a tiger''s den? Looking at the frail little girl, they couldn''t help but sigh.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes lit up, she was noble and did not brag about it. The girl who asked to save her looked familiar, wasn''t she the Miss of the Zhou family, Zhou Yao? She had met her once on the floral feast s, but she did not expect that she was also a person who hated evil like a enemy.


    Looking at Zhou Yao''s pure eyes, the corners of Xi Jiu Er''s lips curled up slightly.


    "Oh, little girl, as long as you agree to play with us brothers, I''ll let her go." The guy with the broken teeth patted his belly.


    "You all are vulgar!" Zhou Yao mustered a lot of courage. Just as she was in a daze, her umbrella was also snatched away by someone.


    Zhou Yao''s face could also be considered delicate. Unlike Xi Jiu Er, she had a pure feeling, as if the three hoodlums had given up on Xi Jiu Er and were walking towards him.


    "You all, keep my distance. I am the Zhou family''s Miss." Zhou Yao also retreated step by step, and she was so wronged that she wanted to cry.


    Zhou Yao''s cry for help, in the ears of the hoodlums, was a bashful shout, making them unable to stop themselves. Zhou Yao''s wrist had already been grabbed, she struggled with all her might, but she was only a woman.


    Tears fell from Zhou Yao''s eyes, those big eyes flickered, they were blurred and blurred, causing people to be unable to help but feel tender towards him, and she soon reached the riverside.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that she was in trouble, and only now did she regain her senses. She lifted her skirt and ran towards one of them, and then, used all her strength to grab one of them by the collar and push him backwards.


    The drunk was drunk to begin with, but had accidentally dragged one of them down. The other two drunkards were mixed into his lap and fell flat on the ground.


    "Haha, puppy dog!" The child at the side clapped his hands. He was still young and did not understand what was happening. Xi Jiu Er came to Zhou Yao''s side, and tied her hair up into a simple bun, before grabbing onto Zhou Yao''s hand that was approaching him.


    "Stop crying, stop crying." Zhou Yao threw herself into Xi Jiu Er''s embrace, while Xi Jiu Er comforted her and patted her back.


    Clear tears flowed down Zhou Yao''s face, and Xi Jiu Er bit her lips, feeling a little forced.


    "You two little girls, I think you want to die." He was like a wild dog that had escaped from its leash, charging towards them.


    Seeing that the situation was not good, Xi Jiu Er hurriedly protected Zhou Yao behind her. The broken tooth struck her, and Xi Jiu Er took a few steps back.


    Xi Jiu Er was pregnant, and this time she was pregnant, causing him to experience some pain. Zhou Yao immediately went to support her, but found that she was biting her lips.


    "Help!" Zhou Yao struggled to ask for help, and the surrounding people could not continue watching, they started to shout at the drunkards to divert their attention.


    Xi Jiu Er was in so much pain that she couldn''t feel anything anymore. She grabbed onto Zhou Yao''s arm, a little worried for her.


    Swish! All of a sudden, a black shadow flew over, as if it was a matter of an instant. The next second, the broken tooth was kicked away, and with a splash, it fell into the water, becoming a drowned chicken.


    A warm and broad arm embraced Xi Jiu Er, and then called out to her a little anxiously.


    "Jiu Er, how are you?!" Xi Jiu Er slowly opened his eyes, what he saw was Prince Xian''s exquisite face, with her long and thin eyebrows knitted together.


    "I''m fine." Xi Jiu Er''s face was pale white, she was weak when she spoke, holding onto her stomach, Prince Xian punched the ground, her heart aching. Prince Xian looked as if she had swallowed gunpowder as she glanced at Zhou Yao and thanked him.


    The air was also filled with a dangerous atmosphere. The two drunkards supported each other, while the slits in their teeth fluttered in the water.


    He clenched his fists tightly and then punched the tall man''s head. The remaining drunkard was slightly terrified, all that could be seen was a huge fist smashing hard into his face.


    The lackey screamed out in pain. It was not enough to resolve the hatred in Prince Xian''s heart, he felt that he had never been so angry before. The hands of his beloved woman, made him want to go crazy at the same time.


    Prince Xian''s eyes were like arrows. He tilted his head and looked at the three hoodlums as if they were dead.


    In this world, only Xi Jiu Er could cause the Prince Xian to lose his mind.


    After taking care of a few people, Prince Xian was still panting in anger. Under normal circumstances, he definitely had to kill a few people, but the most important thing right now was Xi Jiu Er''s injuries. If Xi Jiu Er really gave birth to a child, he would truly be a sinner.


    The late emperor lifted her up. Xi Jiu Er did not say anything and carried her, heading towards the infirmary crazily. He could not hide his anxiousness.


    "Jiu Er, wake up." Prince Xian called out to Xi Jiu Er again and again.


    Seeing Xi Jiu Er unconscious him, Prince Xian felt as if her heart was being stabbed by knives. It wasn''t easy for him to get to the infirmary, but it was already closed. The best doctor in the entire capital recognized the Duke of Qin at a glance. He turned pale with fright and quickly let the two into the courtyard.


    The white haired middle-aged man immediately called out to him to make his move, and didn''t dare to slight Xi Jiu Er in her diagnosis.


    When the Prince Xian was locked outside the door, Young Master Zhao and Zhou Yao had rushed over. Young Master Zhao was blaming himself very much, but Zhou Yao had just said a few comforting words.


    "The Mrs. IX has its own destiny. It will definitely be fine." Zhou Yao nodded towards Prince Xian.


    Prince Xian was uncharacteristically anxious. For Xi Jiu Er, he sweated profusely, not even knowing when his own fist would become red and swollen. After a long time, the doctor walked out and wiped his hands as he surveyed the crowd.


    "She''s fine now. She''s just a baby. She''ll be fine after recuperating for a bit." When the doctor announced the result, he heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, the entire infirmary was surrounded by soldiers.


    Prince Xian was stunned for a moment. He pushed open the door and walked in while Xi Jiu Er leaned against the pillow and drank the foetal antidote that the servant was feeding him.


    Fortunately, the child was fine, if not Xi Jiu Er would have gone crazy, and the Prince Xian would have blamed himself even more.


    "Are you okay?" Prince Xian walked over with large strides, grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s shoulders and asked with concern.

 C368

    "You''re hurting me." Xi Jiu Er snorted, only then did Prince Xian realize that he had used too much force, and released his hand in embarrassment.


    "I''m fine. I still have to thank that Zhou family''s Miss." Xi Jiu Er drank the last mouthful of medicine and the Prince Xian wiped the corner of his mouth.


    Prince Xian intimately combed Xi Jiu Er''s hair, and discovered that she was especially haggard, her originally pink lips had also turned slightly white, and there were some bruises on her arms.


    At this moment, every move was cutting apart Prince Xian''s heart. He forced a smile at Xi Jiu Er, and was no longer in the mood to play around.


    "Since Mrs. IX is fine, then I will leave first." Zhou Yao said goodbye.


    "Come to visit when you have time." Xi Jiu Er laughed, and finally regained some color on her face. Then, Young Master Zhao went somewhere else. Prince Xian sat on the bedside and said, "It''s good that you''re fine. I won''t be an inch away from you in the future. You should rest first."


    After Prince Xian finished speaking, he hurriedly left. Xi Jiu Er knew in her heart that he could not stop him, so she did not say anything.


    In the capital, there was a sea of people by the river''s edge. This situation would last until the early hours of the morning. What happened just now was only a small interlude.


    Somewhere in the city, it was very quiet. It was dark and humid, and the wind was howling and making noise. After a while, a messy sound of footsteps could be heard.


    They were the three drunk hoodlums. Now that they had woken up and realized that they had committed a crime, they wanted to leave.


    "It''s all your fault, why are you drinking wine when you have nothing to do? Now that you have angered such a big shot, our lives are in danger." The tall one scolded the toothless hoodlum.


    The three of them walked on without stopping. Finally, when they turned a corner, they saw a black shadow leaning against the wall.


    The man in black slowly raised his head as he heard the footsteps. His eyes were filled with hatred. Although he was only one person, he had the power to sweep everything away.


    The three of them were stunned on the spot, they did not know how to react. The black clothed man walked forward and lifted his hat, his exquisite face was expressionless. It was Prince Xian.


    "Ghost, ghost!" The three of them were scared to the point of peeing their pants. Cave Teeth sat on the ground limply as he crawled backward on his knees.


    Ka-cha! * Prince Xian''s foot broke his wrist. The remaining two hoodlums looked at each other, retreated a few steps, turned around and ran.


    Prince Xian took a flying kick to the face of the wind, knocking down a hoodlum. That tall one knew he could not escape, and revealed a fierce look, gritting his teeth, he raised his fist.


    Prince Xian punched him in the face, shattering all of his teeth. Prince Xian held up two of his fingers, then fiercely stabbed them into the tall man''s eyes.


    "AHH!" That painful howl was like a little kid who had been tortured in hell. The smell of blood spread in the wind, and the smallest of them, the Sharp Fangs, had already lost control of themselves and fainted.


    The tall man waved his hands randomly. Prince Xian took out his sword and stabbed it into the tall man''s heart.


    The last lackey''s face was filled with fear as he kneeled down. Prince Xian was not a merciful person, he walked step by step towards him.


    He stabbed the sword into the body of the muddleheaded fool and pulled it out with a single slash. It was only when the man was badly mutilated that he was pulled out. All Mrs. IX who harm this king will die. " Prince Xian said coldly, then wiped off the blood on his sword before disappearing into the darkness of the night.


    Wei Guogong stood on top of the platform, his long and narrow eyes slightly narrowed due to the dazzling light. After he had adapted to the light, he withdrew her gaze from the tall mountains in the distance, and placed it on the soldiers below the stage who were already ready to go.


    After clearing his throat slightly, Wei Guogong''s powerful old voice came out from the wide drill grounds.


    Today was the first battle of the same race, Wei Guogong Chou ordered the kitchen to open fire to plant the stove, and at the same time, he set up a formation with all the officers and soldiers in the army.


    Shi Chen Wen was still expressionlessly standing behind Wei Guogong. As the deputy general in charge of this expedition, he should follow behind Wei Guogong and was never good at playing with words. He was used to watching the high-spirited expressions from the soldiers below the stage.


    The first battle against the alien did not turn out as victorious as they had hoped.


    Wei Guogong and the soldiers had already formulated a plan to defeat the enemy last night.


    The left vanguard was split into three sides with Shi Chen Wen''s qualified subordinates, while the right vanguard followed Shi Chen Wen to ambush the enemies in the dense forest around the battlefield. The last two sides, Xu Xi and the right rear, fought against the enemies from all sides of the battlefield, and when the enemies entered the ambush circle, they would delay the enemies, waiting for Shi Chen Wen and the left vanguard, Fang Xu''s Elite Armament, to ambush them.


    One of the thirty-six, the soldier, the trick.


    However, the Chinese use stratagem, quite a few, but not exquisite.


    The Desolate Land was a place where people were more meticulous in using people. As such, since ancient times, there had been no place for people to rely on, and amongst them, there were many that were good at it.


    There were a lot of birds and beasts here. Shi Chen Wen had his soldiers break off a lot of branches from the branches and branches of the trees, all of them forming a bunch, which he carefully gathered together to make simple and crude crowns.


    At this time of year, the trees were extremely lush, the leaves were tender green, four or five leaves were wrapped around the crown, no one knew what kind of tree the soldier had picked, the leaves were unusually wide, just three or four of them were enough to cover a 15-16 year old teenager''s head.


    The soldiers, disguised as trees and crowns, quietly knelt in the grass. The green weeds half a man tall swayed in the breeze, and occasionally a rabbit or a silly and adorable fawn ran out from the forest.


    Normally, it would be hard to come across such a large amount of meat that could be eaten effortlessly without any effort. Therefore, the young soldiers didn''t hesitate to pounce on them.


    However, on a day like today, when even breathing would make people feel extremely nervous, these usually clumsy young people no longer had the same boisterous and joking look they had at that time.


    Everyone''s breathing quickened as they listened to the birds chirping in the woods. The chirps of the insects on the cypress trees next to them were accompanied by an indescribable sense of solemnity.


    Hidden deep within the forest, Shi Chen Wen looked at the seemingly normal bird song diagram of the tranquil and secluded mountain forest and an abnormal emotion emerged from his heart.


    The vanguard troops had rushed to their designated ambush spots from the three quarters of an hour when the ring-hour had departed. The three places had already agreed that after the war between the two armies started, they would immediately burn the smoke from the two high platforms, indicating that the left and right vanguards should begin their attack.

 C369

    However, Shi Chen Wen had already sent out spies to travel through the forest, circling around the city walls to check on the signal, and waited for the spies to rush through the forest, sweating profusely to wipe the beads of sweat on their forehead, their tone were anxious and impatient, "Reporting to General, the smoke is not here yet."


    Shi Chen Wen plowed through a bunch of wild grasses, stood up and snuck beside a Hundred Year Old Pine Tree, vigilantly looked around, extended his hand out to tighten the belt on his waist, rubbed his palms together, and spat out some water into the center of his palms. He bent his body and tiptoed, and with the tree tops, Shi Chen Wen''s figure was extremely nimble, like a monkey that had been shuttling through the forest and mountains for years, and climbed up to the top of the big tree in a matter of time.


    Shi Chen Wen stepped onto a sturdy branch and climbed onto a tree branch that was near the topmost branch. He carefully lifted a corner of the tree crown that was filled with green leaves and stuck out half of his head.


    Aside from the smoke rising, the sky above the battlefield was originally covered in white clouds, and the blue sky was a leisurely and comfortable place. However, in just a few hours, the dust raised by the war horses, mixed with the dust raised by the huge crossbow bolts, fell to the ground, creating a cloud of dust and dust. The entire battlefield was wrapped in a giant gray sphere.


    Seeing that the battlefield was already in chaos, it was obvious that they had been fighting for some time now. But why was there no smoke rising from the ground, notifying him to go and support them?


    Shi Chen Wen''s heart was slightly unsettled. This battle did not go in the direction that everyone had planned out for him and after stopping on the tree for a while, he quickly jumped down from the pine tree and rushed to the patch of grass where he had ambushed everyone.


    Not daring to be sure that there was something abnormal going on ahead, and not daring to make the decision to rush to the main battlefield without permission, Shi Chen Wen was anxious and uneasy. He tightly knitted his brows, and the myriad of emotions in his eyes undoubtedly revealed Shi Chen Wen''s concern for his future.


    After a long while, Shi Chen Wen could no longer hold it in, he ordered the messenger to send a scout, and his tone turned serious, "Quickly head to the main tent, and ask Wei Guogong if we need to immediately go and help General Xu Xi. If you are unable to return within the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, I will immediately go."


    After the scout received the order, he quickly disappeared from everyone''s sight.


    Things seemed to go out of control step by step as time passed.


    Everyone quietly sat in the grass, feeling uneasy in their limbs. The temperature in the air gradually froze over time.


    In the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, it had finally slipped away. In that moment, the spy no longer appeared in front of everyone''s eyes. Shi Chen Wen''s heart trembled, he could no longer delay any further.


    The soldiers of the right vanguard also began mumbling to themselves, guessing that something was amiss. Otherwise, they would have been fighting in the battlefield long ago.


    Shi Chen Wen frowned, his killing intent appearing faintly, his right hand holding the sword tightly, the Green Scripture appearing from the back of his hand, his entire body seemingly transforming into the God of Death Bai Qi, his entire body enveloped by the cold Qi.


    The soldiers who had joined Shi Chen Wen''s army saw this instantaneous change, but they were already used to it. There was not the slightest bit of fear or fear, and it originated from licking the blood of the blade, becoming used to fighting for one''s life with the King of Hell on the border of life and death.


    Shi Chen Wen turned around and faced the crowd behind him. With a powerful wave of his right arm, the soldiers who were originally hiding in the grass all stood up and followed Shi Chen Wen out of the forest.


    The mountain path led to a flat mountain area not far away. Shi Chen Wen walked forward with broken steps and faced the soldiers behind him, constantly waving his arms, or making a few simple and clear gestures, he passed it to everyone, indicating them to take his next action.


    When everyone rushed to the main battlefield, their eyes were focused on the chaos in front of them, and they were stunned for a moment.


    Three or four soldiers were carrying ladders, risking death and injury from the falling boulders. As usual, they were carrying unknown protective gear crafted from copper and iron like a wok helmet as they swiftly leaned the ladders against the city wall. Soldiers came in later on, waving their spears and sabers in an attempt to resist the falling pieces of stone and wood, trying their best to keep their balance as they climbed up the crumbling ladders.


    Shi Chen Wen looked at that place from afar and could clearly see that a fat, strong, alien burly man had actually withstood the risk of being scattered by huge rocks and climbed onto the city gate tower. As soon as he climbed up, a bloody massacre began to take place on the city gate tower, the Chinese people were relatively weak and small, and towards the brawny man in front of him, who was momentarily incapable of resisting, several Chinese people who had been fighting for his life in succession, were all split apart.


    Shi Chen Wen received the purple-jade bow that the messenger held in his hand and pulled out three copper arrows cast from the quiver that was placed on the saddle. He stretched out his hand and pulled the bowstring straight out, and with great strength, the huge bow drew a perfect arc in the sky with unstoppable force, and landed on the city gate tower.


    All of a sudden, the man who had been crazily fighting against the guards on the tower had fallen backwards, and in the next second, he had fallen down from the tower. He was trampled by the soldiers who had rushed to the wall from both sides.


    Shi Chen Wen steadily withdrew his thousand jin huge bow and unsheathed his sword with a "shua" sound. The sword beams were crisscrossed and the cold aura was oppressing.


    "Kill!" Shi Chen Wen finally roared and charged into the crowd.


    In the main tent of the Central Army, Wei Guogong was calmly sitting on her teacher''s chair, warming a cup of tea in her hand. The high quality Six Ann melon slices were made using the amber spring water that she had specially brought from thousands of miles away in order to wash and boil three grades of water.


    "Reporting, reporting to the Wei Guogong, for some reason, the smoke platform was unable to ignite the flames, a clan of primary eye, bringing their subordinates to attempt to break through the city gates and enter the city."


    The scouts who were checking out the battle ahead of them heard a somewhat hoarse voice from outside the tent.


    Wei Guogong held a teacup in her hand. Upon hearing her words, she stopped and slammed the teacup onto the ground. "Pa!" The top quality blue and white porcelain cup was smashed into pieces without a sound, and pieces of it scattered all over the place.


    "Why did you only report this now?"


    Wei Guogong quickly got up and walked out of the tent. The scout who had been observing the battle was already kneeling down in front of him, and upon seeing the deerskin cloud boots in front of him, she became a little frightened. She lowered his body even more and tremblingly replied: "Returning Duke, this servant just went to the smoke platform, and a man dressed in white came out from somewhere to fight with me. This servant didn''t have time to think, and was hit heavily on the vital parts of my body.

 C370

    The spy held onto his chest, his face pale white, breathing rapidly, obviously trying to endure the pain. Wei Guogong lightly waved her hand, and a servant beside him immediately went forward, "Take him to the Military Medical Office for treatment. "


    The servant respectfully accepted the order, and carefully left Wei Guogong''s line of sight while holding the spy.


    Wei Guogong''s expression was imposing, his long and narrow phoenix eyes squinted lightly as he looked at the spirited soldiers who were waiting to take action. In his heart, he sized up these young faces, which one of them had an unspeakable evil heart hidden under them?


    It seemed that the enemy had infiltrated the army. Since that was the case, the soldiers in the middle of the army had lost contact with the ones on the battlefield. It seemed that in order to win the first battle, Gu Xi had to rely on the ambition of the soldiers on the front lines.


    Wei Guogong pondered for a moment, then turned and entered the big tent. It looked like she was unable to extend her hand in this battle, since there was already a pair of eyes staring at him, no matter how many spies she sent out, they would all return empty-handed.


    In this battle, whether they would win or lose, it seemed that they could only rely on Shi Chen Wen''s group of generals outside the city.


    Wei Guogong, who always wore a happy expression, was well versed in scheming, and was well aware that his current expression could not reveal her inner anxiety. Otherwise, his hands, which were hidden in the darkness, would once again reach out, and his next target might not be so lucky to be able to escape death.


    After this game, he was particularly interested in the face behind the scenes. How about Fei Shen just grab this fox out of the darkness and play with it?


    The Wei Guogong seemed to be extremely interested in her decision. The carefree expression on her face made others think that the chill she showed just now was just a reflection of her dream.


    Outside the city gate, amidst the flying sand and flying rocks, the bloody scent of broken corpses and dust swirled in the air. Occasionally, there were soul-stirring screams and the uncontrollable pain of death.


    The blood colored flowers bloomed one after another on the battlefield. Along with Shi Chen Wen, whose eyes were gradually turning red from killing, he raised his blade and used the Blood Drinking Sword very cleanly, using the flesh of the foreign invaders to carve them one by one. With hot blood splashing all over Shi Chen Wen''s face and blood slowly spreading on his face, drop by drop, they flowed down the corner of his mouth and flowed into his mouth.


    The blood in his mouth did not make Shi Chen Wen feel disgusted at all, but instead made him even more excited. He casually lifted his sleeves to take advantage of the gap in the fighting to wipe away the blood at the corner of his eyes, and his lips were dyed red with blood. The originally expressionless and ice-cold Shi Chen Wen raised her sword with her right hand, and the remaining blood on her lips were licked clean by the same blood-red tongue that had stuck out.


    Suddenly, Shi Chen Wen revealed a rare smile. A hundred years of ice was rarely melted, and should have been as gentle as water, yet the bloodstains on his face and the layers of ice formed by his eyes. Facing the gradually dipping sunset, the scarlet-yellow sunlight shined upon him like the bloodthirsty mask of the King of Hell!


    This merciless slaughter was still unable to win back this war.


    As night fell, lights began to light up in the tents. The tents made of leather were propped up by wooden skeletons, and the tent that was surrounded by the other tents was about twice the size of the normal one. Inside the tent, there was a bright light shining and a few figures could be vaguely seen.


    "Duke of Guo, the main reason for my defeat today is because I failed in my duties. I beg of the Duke of Guo to punish me." Left-winger Fang Xu''s face was filled with fatigue, her body skinny, after she finished speaking, she suddenly knelt down, hoe in her right hand, with a solemn expression.


    However, when Shi Chen Wen was leading his team to assist Xu Xi, he only saw Xu Xi and her team fighting alone amongst the crowd that was several times stronger than their original group. They had injuries all over and were drenched in blood, Shi Chen Wen guessed that if he was a step too late, he would have definitely searched for his body amongst the bones in the next moment.


    After the battle, almost half of the team of Left Vanguard had been killed. Everyone was confused as to why the team of Left Vanguard, who did not participate in the battle at all, had lost half of the battle against the enemies on the main battlefield.


    The battle of questions was heavy, and mixed within it were various kinds of strange and difficult to solve. It was a naked declaration to everyone that the first battle had ended in failure.


    Wei Guogong concentrated her attention and fully concentrated on the gigantic sand table. The mountain peaks and ravines in the middle of the sand table and the plains and mountains. Without exception, all the topography within a hundred miles of the main battlefield were compared to each other.


    A pair of rough, wrinkled hands inserted a mini flag into a high ground above the miniature figure. Golden light shone from his eyes as his fingers powerfully struck the edge of the sand table. Doubts gradually surfaced in his heart.


    The ambush circle that Fang Xu was in was a dense forest, the city gates were less than ten kilometers away, and the surroundings relied on the natural danger of the cliff. If the enemy enemy troops were to sneak attack us from the only path in the forest, Fang Xu''s elite soldiers could definitely kill them.


    If they were just lying in ambush here, as long as they saw the smoke rising, they would definitely be able to take advantage of it.


    However, Fang Xu had only appeared outside of the army camp after the battle, he had brought back half of the defeated soldiers, although he immediately went to the camp to ask for forgiveness, he did not manage to explain the cause and effect clearly.


    Wei Guogong carried a tea cup over from a servant by the side and sipped lightly, his eyes did not contain the slightest emotion, after a while he looked at Fang Xu who was kneeling on the ground and asked: "General Fang, did you just say that a pair of Elite Armaments suddenly appeared from a cliff?"


    Fang Xu straightened his back, as if there was a mountain pressing down on him, he said without a trace of fear, "Returning Duke, that''s right, this official did not see any smoke coming out from the wolf during this period of time, and immediately sent spies to investigate, but it has gone without a trace. This official was wary of it, and wanted to bring a group of soldiers back to the main battlefield.


    Fang Xu''s voice was rich and powerful, every word was incomparably clear and fell into the ears of the people sitting down, the candle flame seemed to be somewhat wilted, Wei Guogong stood up thoughtfully, went close to the candle, and picked up a half of the damaged lamp, the candle once again lit up brightly.

 C371

    Everyone within the tent was anxiously awaiting the final judgement of the Wei Guogong. Even though Fang Xu knew that it was not his fault, that was why he was unable to rush to the main battlefield in such a short time, and had lost almost ten thousand of his soldiers, he was not easily pardoned.


    "Although you did not intentionally delay the time for you to arrive at the main battlefield, you still failed to protect your enemies, allowing the enemy to take advantage of the loophole. This caused the first battle of your left vanguard troops to lose more than ten thousand men, delay the fighting opportunity, and even punish two crimes at the same time, are you convinced?"


    "Your official uniform!"


    The resounding "official''s uniform" shook everyone present. Other than one person, the Wei Guogong beside the sand table continued to pick up another cup of tea. With a slight wave of her hand, the two servants behind him escorted the kneeling Fang Xu out of the tent.


    "Return after a great defeat. The soldiers will return tonight. I have my own arrangements as to the outcome of the battle."


    "Yes."


    The Wei Guogong was already very old. Even though she had been fighting all year round, and was already used to drifting about in the wind and rain for a long time, she still didn''t disturb the elderly. Most of her energy had already been drained from his body by the day''s worth of battle, and currently, it was already high in the sky.


    Shi Chen Wen watched as the other disciples silently left the tent, one person staying behind, and turned to enter the tent. Not long after, he walked out with a thin garment in his hands.


    Shi Chen Wen gently draped the thin clothes over Wei Guogong''s body, and retreated back to the front of the table. He respectfully saluted the leader of the riders, turned and quickly left the main camp.


    who was leaning on his desk slowly opened his eyes, pretending that nothing had happened as he exchanged for the personal attendants beside him. He quickly took out a bamboo letter cylinder from his sleeve and handed it over to the other party.


    "Remember, if you encounter any mishaps on the way, do not let anyone else obtain this secret letter. Do you understand?"


    "This servant knows. The person is here, the letter is here, the letter is destroyed, and the person is dead."


    Wei Guogong held onto the table with his right hand, looking at her arm with her forehead. Without even looking at the man below the table, she waved his hand and sent him away.


    All of this didn''t seem to be going according to his and his senior brother''s plans. Could it be that his senior brother had met with an accident in their tent?


    Wei Guogong was frightened by a thought that suddenly appeared in her head. A trace of nervousness flashed across his scarred face, and she immediately hid it deep in her heart.


    No, with senior''s peerless talent, he would never be suppressed by a mere tribe of the Desolate Land. This is absolutely impossible!


    With his understanding of his own senior brother, there must be some hidden secret. It was just that he did not know it yet, but he firmly believed that the final victory of this war would be given to him by the gods.


    Along with the hazy moonlight, the entire camp was filled with dim yellow candles. Everything was silent, as if it had returned to its most carefree days in its childhood memory. However, it could only be found in dreams.


    After that, for a few days, the''s Prince of primary eye, who was involved in this land war, along with the elite soldiers that she had trained for this year, clamored outside the city. Using the language of the one sob tribe, he mixed the various languages of Handi, insulting or cursing the commander of the army, the Wei Guogong, and a bunch of generals.


    When they heard the other party insulting the entire city, the anger in their hearts ignited. They could not suppress it, but they still tried their best to restrain their emotions, knowing that the other party was just using this kind of despicable scheme to trick them into fighting. Unfortunately, the Wei Guogong had already put up a battle exemption card, so they did not know whether it was because they already had a plan, or because they were afraid of the enemy''s elite troops and did not dare to leave the city.


    However, this was not the most important thing that puzzled or worried them the most. It was the thing that worried them the most.


    Everyone knew that the one sob tribe was only a clan that was good at swimming, and almost all of the clan members were in vain. However, from then on, the tribes that relied on water as a medium of battle, dared to go up on land to fight against the army of the Sky Dynasty that was always proud of land war. It was a clan that relied on water as a medium.


    Originally, Wei Guogong brought an army here, but it was only because the quartermaster was sent here by the Emperor to receive supplies, and the quartermaster was not allowed to enter the battlefield. As for the reason behind this, even now, Wei Guogong still did not understand the reason, but the consciousness in the depths of his mind had transmitted an explanation that was not a good thing.


    The war this time, no matter if it was the enemy''s abnormal state or the decisions made by his own king, was extremely intriguing and strange things could be seen everywhere.


    At the moment, the Wei Guogong didn''t have the mood to figure out the ultimate intention of her Majesty''s actions. The most urgent thing to do right now was to find out how the primary eye and her group of Elite Armaments were trained and formed.


    Wei Guogong felt that this matter must have something to do with the person beside her senior brother, maybe it was her senior brother''s most trusted eldest disciple, Yuan Yu. She was an orphan, adopted as her last disciple by senior brother Xiao Wu.


    However, Yuan Yu had the same kind of talent as his master, and the abilities he had displayed a few times also surprised Wei Guogong.


    This man in the Wei Guogong had an extremely bad evaluation, at the same time, she was also very scheming in finding despicable people. She would after all have some accomplishments in the future, and would be more than enough to serve as an outstanding official, but would most likely learn from the formidable and treacherous official, and become a thief who had left behind ten thousand years of malice.


    After making up his mind, Wei Guogong decided to wait until the moon sets, then send his personal bodyguards, who had just returned from the enemy camp in the latter half of the night, with a secret letter that he inquired about, to the enemy camp.


    A few days ago, he sent his servants to the enemy camp with a secret letter, to find a senior brother who had specially sneaked into the one sob tribe to become a spy. He wanted to ask the primary eye why primary eye had suddenly learned the skills to fight on land, and also how to train a Elite Armament Cavalry in a short one year''s time.


    However, he only replied with a simple "wait and see".


    Wei Guogong did not care, as her own senior brother was aloof and distant from everyone. To be able to get the other party to agree to work for him in the enemy camp, she had to spend a lot of time to get the other party''s consent.

 C372

    Originally, according to His Majesty''s orders, the army must stay here for seven full days before returning to the front lines. Today was the last day, Wei Guogong stood on a patch of empty ground outside the camp.


    Wei Guogong looked at the countless young and determined faces around him that were both familiar and unfamiliar. Her turbid eyes gradually shifted to somewhere far away.


    His thoughts gradually drifted into the past.


    He had also been young. Back then, he had ridden into the border, watched the long river and the setting sun, watched the desert smoke, and had his face covered with dust and sand carved into the pages of his memories.


    He had promised to make her motherland happy and free from worries, and he had even risked his life to see the peace of this world and the glory of all those who had come to congratulate him. Yet now, he was still on the road to achieving his dream, even though he had long since lost his life and was willing to turn into an old man who would do his best for the country that he had spent his entire life in.


    "Duke ¡­" Shi Chen Wen''s solemn and stiff voice pulled the Wei Guogong back from her distant memories. Facing the sunlight, there were faint traces of water coming out from the corners of her eyes, but in the instant she turned around, it sprinkled onto the light breeze without a trace.


    "Where are the enemy troops?"


    "Reporting to the king, the enemy troops are clamoring outside the city!"


    Shi Chen Wen lowered his head, his back slightly bent, his face still emotionless, "Duke of Guo, are we still not out of the city to fight?"


    "No." After he finished speaking, Wei Guogong turned and slowly entered the tent, leaving Shi Chen Wen alone there, frowning deeply.


    Today was the seventh day that the Emperor had ordered the army to station here. Shi Chen Wen and all the other officers and soldiers were extremely puzzled, but at the same time, they were also curious as to how the Prince Fu was going to deal with this situation.


    The next day was the release day of His Majesty the Emperor''s Seven Days'' imprisonment. No one was excited, but on the contrary, they were exceptionally worried, because currently, primary eye and his hundred thousand elite soldiers had appeared under the city walls as usual.


    The enemy troops did not let out any curses or curses today, but just quietly sat below the city walls. It was as if they had long since known that they were going to leave camp and return to the front lines, and that they thought that they would be forced to open the city gates and be forced to fight, or else they would not be able to leave this place.


    Wei Guogong had long known the other party''s plan. The secret letter she had sent last night had already been exchanged, and she wanted her own senior brother to lend him a hand and think of a way to force the primary eye to retreat.


    With regards to this senior brother of his, Wei Guogong had complete trust in his character.


    When the ring-hour arrived, Wei Guogong was counting the people on stage, neatly opening the city gates at noon. All the soldiers were already gathering their strength, the long swords and long spears in their hands were all pressed against their chests, a cold aura pervaded the air above the entire army.


    Separated by just a wall made of boulders, the soldiers could feel the tense atmosphere created by the enemy troops outside the city. It was as if some emotion was flowing in the air and could tear the people inside the city into pieces in the next moment.


    The huge bolt on the mottled red lacquer door was lifted with much effort by two big burly men. They threw it to the side and immediately opened it again. Each of them held a big hole in the door and tried to pull it open with all their might.


    With a "yiyaya" sound, the massive city gate covered in red lacquer slowly opened in front of everyone''s tense eyes. Dust flew everywhere as tens of thousands of Ferghana Horses galloped down, leaving the soldiers in a daze.


    The primary eye left the base of the city wall with its soldiers in a hurry. The soldiers looked at the empty ground with doubt in their hearts.


    As the main marshal, Wei Guogong did not care at all. She confidently and confidently moved ahead of the group, while Shi Chen Wen galloped behind him and arrived at the side of the Wei Guogong, stopping just a step away from them.


    "Duke of Guo, this time, the primary eye retreated and let us go back. Between the three of us, this official feels that something is off."


    "Oh?"


    The corner of Wei Guogong''s mouth held a faintly discernable smile, her mood seemed to be extremely good. Regarding Shi Chen Wen''s questions, he did not help her answer them, but only tilted his head and smiled at him.


    "Today, when we return to the front lines, it will be the best time to intercept our army. If we are trapped in the city, with one shot and two condors, one will infuriate His Majesty and scold us for delaying the flight, and secondly, the primary eye can leave us in the city until we run out of bullets and run out of food, and we can''t help but surrender to him. This kind of plan where there are two birds on one stone, yet the primary eye gives up."


    Wei Guogong laughed and nodded, "In these few days, you and I have been through a lot of strange things. From the moment His Majesty made us come here to receive food and materials for no reason, to when Fang Xu was taken down by an unknown group of enemies by an unknown group of tens of thousands of people, is it rare for you to see all the strangeness of this place? "


    Shi Chen Wen''s sword-like eyebrows furrowed deeply as he lowered his head to think about the meaning behind Wei Guogong''s words. Then, he thought about the various unexplainable and bizarre things that had happened in the past few days, and they became a mess that lingered in his mind, unable to be sorted out.


    "Young man, don''t be so cautious. This is the so-called ''when the enemy comes, when the enemy comes''. It all depends on the will of the heavens. This old man believes that the heavens will definitely not abandon us."


    Wei Guogong rode closer to Shi Chen Wen, holding onto the reins in one hand, and extending the other hand onto the other''s shoulder. She patted the horse lightly and felt the other party''s body tremble slightly, but she did not say anything more.


    The moon was shining with willow branches, and people lived around dusk.


    When everyone returned to the Dreamy Cloud City near the Yongan Bridge, it was already the third day since the beginning. Everyone quickly set up their tents, and quickly built fortifications nearby before burying the stove to cook.


    The Wei Guogong had Shi Chen Wen bring along the left and right deputy generals and when they left a few days ago, she had the young men pull the giant warship that was back to the city into the Eternal An River.


    The Dreamy Cloud City was located on the northwest side of the Yongan River, one of the most prosperous and affluent of the many cities that were seized in a single breath. The Dreamy Cloud City was located on the north side of the Yongan River, one of the wealthiest and wealthiest cities that was seized in the first place.


    After the Wei Guogong accepted them, not only did she take in a few travelling adventurers, but the local wealthy merchants also took the initiative to donate their finances and expand the reserves of the Wei Guogong.


    After everything was prepared, three days had passed. Three days later, Wei Guogong sent Shi Chen Wen to challenge the one sob tribe''s enemy camp for the first time.

 C373

    Compared to the previous land battle, the water battle was more important to the teamwork and cooperation of the army. The ability to control the horses on the ground was as important as the ability to control the water on the water, and a part of the army led by Shi Chen Wen, led by a team of four hundred thousand soldiers, would be the main force in the water battle this time.


    The reason why the Wei Guogong was so anxious to start the water battle that could be said to be impossible, was because the follow-up plan she had made with her own senior brother, needed this link to be pushed forward, and this link was also the most important part.


    Shi Chen Wen looked at Wei Guogong, who had just issued a private order to him, while he was hesitating to speak. He was muttering in his heart, when Wei Guogong had whispered an order to him in the ear earlier, he knew that he must not overestimate himself, and that he must lose this battle.


    Shi Chen Wen frowned, his firm lips formed a line, although his heart was filled with suspicions, the trust in his heart for the Wei Guogong forced him to suppress it.


    Since the Wei Guogong had made this plan, then there must be some interesting hidden meaning.


    Shi Chen Wen''s sonorous and forceful voice reverberated between the heaven and earth. With a wave of his arm, a hundred thousand water soldiers valiantly boarded the majestic battleship docked at the Yongan River with a third of the land troops.


    People in the city rushed out of the city. Some of them were holding white wine brewed by their families, while others were holding their own food. They wanted to take a bite to eat or to drink white wine while the soldiers were boarding the ship.


    The entire Dreamy Cloud City seemed to have turned into a giant, as she raised her arms in a grand gesture, preparing to play this game of life-and-death game with the other races on Yongan River.


    In order to protect and reclaim the territory of his own homeland, the people and soldiers of the entire Dreamy Cloud City, who had gathered to form a city, had risked their lives to rebel against the heavens, forcibly taking in all of the cities that were supposed to be part of the heavens.


    There was even a time when they wanted to lay their hands on the Dreamy Cloud City. The Heavenly Court would never let these heartless and disloyal subordinate barbarian tribes off easily.


    Just when everyone was anxiously waiting for the news to spread.


    Banners and drums were fluttering in the air, causing the sky to shake. When the spear pierced through the body of the Yongan River, the ear-piercing sound of a thousand different mixed sounds of blood being cut apart could be heard, mixed with the howls of ghosts and the howls of wolves above the river for a long time.


    The Wei Guogong on the shore had long climbed up the city walls and sent spies to check on the situation at the front lines. The citizens under the city walls were all escorted back to the city by him.


    With a cold expression, he looked through the observation mirror and saw that not far away, there was a sea of water. Three strangely shaped battleships were circling around one of the ships, and the enemy''s ship seemed to be shooting something that resembled an arrow at the ship, in just a moment, the entire body of the ship and all of the soldiers were buried in the river.


    Shi Chen Wen secretly took in a deep breath of cold air. The thing that the strange warship was shooting at him seemed like it wanted to shoot arrows, but upon closer inspection, he realized that it was actually shooting something with life force. The moment it touched a stranger, it would immediately bite their flesh and blood.


    Just as the tail ship was about to sink, that unknown creature shook itself off and silently dived into the river.


    The entire scene was reflected in his eyes. The slender white hand holding the observation mirror, along with the faint cocoon, was trembling subconsciously. Such a terrifying scene caused the young general to feel a moment of fear.


    After calming his emotions, Shi Chen Wen brought his eyes closer to the mirror. Sure enough, wherever the three peculiar warships went, they were all destroyed and killed. At this point in time, he estimated that about ten warships were pulled into the river by them.


    There was some unease in his heart. Thinking about what the Wei Guogong had ordered, she had the thought of returning home.


    Even if he did not take the initiative to give up on victory, based on the current situation, Shi Chen Wen reckoned that he would fall into defeat. If he returned in time, he would still be able to reduce the number of casualties by half.


    "Pass down the order, retreat!" Shi Chen Wen had made up his mind, as his icy voice sounded in the ears of the people on the boat.


    "Yes," a servant at the side answered immediately, turned around and hurried to the middle of the boat to call the drummer, "General has ordered for the withdrawal of troops."


    Shi Chen Wen held onto the observation mirror, and while listening to the beating of the retreating drums, he stuck his head out and carefully observed the creatures in the river, who were still marching. It was just that he did not know what were they eating so happily while facing the corpses in the river.


    Three or four piles of corpses floating on top of the river attracted a bunch of unknown creatures that looked like arrows. With the help of the cold wind, apart from the thick smell of blood, there was also a faint stinky smell that was very similar to the smell of rotten corpses that had not been buried for a long time.


    Shi Chen Wen looked at the broken limbs in the river, and sometimes, his body would be pierced by this disgusting object, pulling out a bunch of organs that floated on the water. This disgusting and bloody scene made the iron-blooded general, who could not find the enemy''s head anywhere, feel disgust even while waving his hands.


    Shi Chen Wen rolled his throat as he suppressed the disgust in his heart. He turned and left the deck, quickly stepping onto the main battleship''s counting platform, he looked around, only to see the ruins of his troops, the uncontrollable desolation in his heart, making him extremely suspicious and curious about the purpose of this battle.


    He had to ask Wei Guogong about the reason behind this when she returned today. Otherwise, even if she did not ask, the tens of thousands of soldiers in the army would definitely cause some ripples.


    The first battle between the Celestial army and the one sob tribe was fought because the Celestial army was defeated.


    The citizens of Dreamless City rushed to report, and the first battle of the Celestial army was a disappointment to the citizens, who had great trust in the Wei Guogong. The citizens were disappointed, and then they understood that victory or defeat was a common occurrence, but who knew that victory was not meant to be a victory for the Celestial army?


    Furthermore, although the Heaven Empire''s armies were not that skilled in water battles, there were countless talented soldiers in the army. Just the water army in Shi Chen Wen''s hands and the iron macingo in the Wei Guogong''s hands could be considered as the most well-trained and famous elite soldiers in the empire.

 C374

    Shi Chen Wen stepped foot into the army camp, and followed behind him to pay respects to the Wei Guogong who had long returned to the middle camp.


    "Duke ¡­" Shi Chen Wen bowed respectfully, and the Wei Guogong on the table glanced at him with his phoenix eyes before coldly snorting.


    "You lost very well in today''s battle," the Wei Guogong said in a cold and detached voice. Her tone did not contain the slightest emotion.


    Shi Chen Wen lowered his head, completely unable to read the expression on his face, and bowed with both hands, and continued to speak: "This humble one does not know why the Duke of the Nation wants this battle, but we have yet to rest for even a moment, and this battle had already begun. Let''s not talk about the fact that we lost three points in the water battle, the previous losses caused some ripples among the soldiers, and after this battle, our soldiers will find ways to pacify us, otherwise the outcome of the battle will not be easy."


    Wei Guogong heard the reproach in the other party''s tone. She sat on the table and heavily knocked down the cup in her hand and spoke with an icy tone, "General Shi is blaming this official for hurting our team members even though I know this battle is against us?"


    "This official does not dare", Shi Chen Wen was extremely calm, and was not affected by the other party''s emotions at all.


    "You don''t dare?" Wei Guogong''s tone slowly slowed down, as she pondered on whether or not she should let Shi Chen Wen know about the situation that she had risked her life to arrange, since she was the one who needed to help out in the end.


    Seeing that Shi Chen Wen did not reply, he called for the servants to clean up the mess on the table. He extended his hand to take the tea cup and drank a mouthful of tea to moisten his throat, then slowly told everyone about his plans.


    "I had planned this war a month ago." Wei Guogong paused in time, and when she saw that Shi Chen Wen had reacted, she raised his big, round eyes, staring straight at Wei Guogong with shock in his eyes.


    A pleased look flashed past Wei Guogong''s eyes, she casually pointed to the seat next to him, signalling for him to sit down and listen to what she had to say.


    "Are they your men outside the tent?" Wei Guogong unexpectedly asked Shi Chen Wen a question that had nothing to do with it.


    Shi Chen Wen nodded his head in understanding before pausing for a moment and continuing: "In the past, my master went from being a servant to being a servant of the Secret Arts, and was almost proficient in the Five Elements of Eight Trigrams, strange techniques, medical records, and even had people spying on the Heaven''s Secrets. By chance, I happened to meet an immortal master in my sect, and said that it was somewhat difficult for him to be an immortal, because he was occasionally evil and occasionally upright, regardless of whether it is being a Magus Gu technique or a righteous technique, he is extremely proficient."


    Perhaps it was because he was still unclear about the events that happened in the past, the Wei Guogong paused for a moment before continuing.


    I have a senior brother who is quite talented and a bit gloomy, a person who is not easy to get along with, but he treats me very well. When we both go out together, he doesn''t like to restrict and wander around the world, while I like to fight and kill, so I followed the army. A month ago, although I didn''t know whether or not His Majesty would send me to suppress this howl, I had still entrusted senior brother to go into hiding in the enemy camp.


    "If that''s the case, does that mean that Wei Guogong''s senior brother is scouting out the enemy for us at the enemy camp?"


    "Of course, after I had thought about it, my senior finally agreed to go into hiding. We made a plan to have my senior recommend himself to the Lord of Death as a peerless talent, then find a way to trust him and secretly intercept our army."


    "If that is the case, then why did our army suffer such a crushing defeat in the last land war?" Why did we deliberately lose today''s battle in the river? "


    Shi Chen Wen suddenly interjected one sentence, interrupting Wei Guogong''s narration, changing the word on her forehead back to her own, but she did not know it.


    Wei Guogong knew Shi Chen Wen''s temperament and knew that the other party was only speaking bluntly, "As for the last loss, according to senior brother''s secret letter, it was a year ago that an expert skilled in military training came from Handi. This person used only a year''s time to train himself and with his bare hands, as well as the ability to immediately match up to the Golden Steel Horse in my hands, but he is also very mysterious.


    Wei Guogong lectured for a while in a single breath, her mouth was filled with thirst, only then did she stop. She raised the teacup in her hand, took a sip, and continued speaking after her throat had warmed up.


    "Now that I''m in such a hurry to start this water battle, I just want to help senior brother gain the trust of his master. Have you seen three battleships with strange patterns on them today? Their bodies are less than half of our ships?"


    Shi Chen Wen pondered for a moment, then replied: "Returning Duke, however, this is the case. Earlier, I didn''t pay too much attention to the boat''s design, and now that I think about it, the boat''s design is really strange, it seems to be a picture depicted by a big ball of snakes and scorpions, or some sort of flower."


    The Wei Guogong above heard this and nodded her head, then continued, "This is the Southern Wilderness'' most mysterious witchcraft technique. This ship has a picture of a poisonous scorpion traversing through the Mandala Flower, these two things are commonly used in Gu techniques."


    Shi Chen Wen seemed to have thought of something, a golden light appeared in his mind, "So that means that the unknown thing that I saw from the enemy ship that was shot out by the enemy ship was actually the Poison Scorpion?"


    "Yes, yes, no, because the thing they shot out was actually a Gu. This thing is called ''Wings'', and it was named after ten exceptionally ferocious poisonous scorpions, and ten cobras with ten tails. The two objects must be poisonous substances from the depths of the Southern Wilderness, and after placing them in an earthen jar, it took ten months to hatch a Gu King, and after feeding it Mandala for one year, it would be taken out to be tamed. After that, it would be used to create a descendant of two different species of Gu King.


    "Is that the descendant of the Gu King?"


    "Of course."


    Shi Chen Wen nodded, then suddenly remembered that it was not the entire plan, "Duke, this is not the plan, right?"


    "This is only half of the plan, but today''s battle is the most crucial part of our plan. Because, as long as we lose, the Lord of Whore will believe in our senior brother''s abilities, and the real last battle will happen half a month from now."

 C375

    Shi Chen Wen frowned, "Duke, what about that kind of Gu?"


    Do not worry about that, today is to let senior take the letter, that''s why he released ''Wings'' to attack our army. According to our plan, after half a month, the Gu that he released will be another type of item that looks extremely similar to the ''Wings'', and that thing is not a Gu, so it won''t hurt anyone, don''t worry.


    Hearing Wei Guogong''s words, Shi Chen Wen did not stop worrying, in his heart, he did not completely believe Wei Guogong''s explanation. It was not that he suspected that they were working together with the enemy, but that he was extremely confident in the words of the unknown and dangerous Gu, causing his heart to tremble.


    If the senior brother of the Wei Guogong did not go as planned, then the danger our army would face would be many times greater than today.


    "Did the king deliberately allow his subordinate to bring only a third of the navy and half of the army just to deceive people?"


    "Exactly, today is just a bluff."


    "But there are already some complaints in the military. Duke of Guo, should I comfort him?" Shi Chen Wen''s entire mind was distracted by the other issue that had to be solved before him.


    When Wei Guogong and her senior were working on this part, they had already considered the grievances in the military camp, so they naturally made the corresponding move, "This time, when we were defeated, you have to tell everyone that a spy infiltrated yesterday and stole all of our army''s plans. I did not pay attention to this, and the fault lies with me.


    "Duke of Guo, how can ¡­" It was rare for Shi Chen Wen to have any emotional fluctuations, and before he could even finish, he was cut off by a wave of the Wei Guogong''s hand.


    "It was me who made the mistake. If we didn''t need this segment to advance our plans, those soldiers wouldn''t have been buried in the river."


    Shi Chen Wen still wanted to continue persuading him otherwise, but Wei Guogong was already impatient. She took the mountainous pile of scrolls and started reading by herself.


    Shi Chen Wen understood that the other party had formless orders to leave, so he could only sigh helplessly. Bowing respectfully towards the head, he turned and slowly walked out of the center of the camp.


    This time, only Wei Guogong was dressed in thin clothes, the crown of her head was put down, and her hair that flowed down was no longer as sleek and smooth as when she was young. Most of the silver threads that were hidden under the white frost that gradually covered her black hair, and the afternoon sky was not as clear as it was in the morning.


    Below the stage, Shi Chen Wen looked at the old man who was holding onto a wine cup with one hand and a sword in the other, and felt sad in his heart. The old man who was carrying a wine cup in one hand and carrying a sword in the other, in front of a normal family, had already become a young man, and after spending his time holding onto a wine jug and cooking a plate of peanuts, he started to chat with his neighbors.


    And to the Wei Guogong who had a high position and power, this was a mere extravagant request.


    All of a sudden, the sky, which was still sunny a moment ago, was shaking and shaking as raindrops fell on everyone''s faces. However, no one raised their hands to wipe them away.


    "Today, I am willing to use it as a sacrifice for the head, to pay tribute to all the warriors who are slumbering in the river of Yongan."


    "Duke, you can''t ¡­"


    Everyone understood what a head of long hair meant to them. Since ancient times, a head of long hair had always been on the skin, and after being reprimanded by their parents, Wei Guogong actually dared to go against the teachings of a saint and admit her wrongs to the heroic souls of the people in this battle. It was already full of sincerity, not to mention that this old man, who had experienced so many hardships, still remembered this country, and this intention was truly worthy of admiration.


    When the storm had passed, Wei Guogong woke up slowly in his tent. She was still unable to pull her thoughts away from the general''s tent for a while, and seeing that everything inside the tent seemed somewhat familiar, it was only after a long while did she remember that she was inside his own tent.


    Since then, he had been lingering in his dreams, and everything that had happened in the past had appeared in his dreams. Time after time, he displayed all the familiar and unfamiliar scenes in front of him, and even his granddaughter, who he loved the most, kept changing her cheeks. From when she was young to when she was young, she pushed herself fiercely into the abyss of her memories again and again.


    "Cough cough cough, do you have water?" Wei Guogong''s dry throat felt like it was going to smoke. She looked around the tent, and upon hearing that, the servants who were left in the outer tent immediately came in, and respectfully poured herself a pot of tea from the water bottle on the table, then bowed and handed it over to Wei Guogong.


    "Gulp." Maybe it was because he was too thirsty, but after drinking three large cups of tea in a row, Wei Guogong finally felt that he was not that thirsty anymore.


    "Duke, General Shi has instructed the military doctors to treat you once more to ensure that you are alright." The servant, who was kneeling on the ground and tying the belt to Wei Guogong, remembered Shi Chen Wen''s instructions and immediately informed him in a low voice.


    Wei Guogong waved her hand lightly, rejecting the other party''s suggestion. Instead, she opened her mouth and asked another question, "How long was this old man unconscious for?"


    "Return to your father for three days."


    The weather was unusually clear today, as if someone had given the sky a bath. As far as the eye could see, it was a clear and transparent blue, giving the Wei Guogong, who had recovered from her illness, some comfort and warmth.


    "Duke, are you feeling better?" He did not even need to turn around to know who it was. "In the end, I''m still old, after being under the rain for a while, I got sick from the wind. I''m old."


    Wei Guogong turned and laughed at herself, she did not feel sad at all about the current situation, because people eventually get old. Who knew that when she was young, he would not like cultivation methods, otherwise she would be as young and eternal as her senior.


    People die, so what if they are young? To always live alone in this world and watch the familiar people die one by one without being able to do anything about it. This kind of feeling must be unbearable, right?


    Shi Chen Wen bent his body silently, but he did not continue, and waited for the other party to continue, "General Shi, have the enemy troops made any moves in the recent days?"

 C376

    After finally getting to the crux of the problem, Shi Chen Wen let out a long sigh of relief and replied respectfully: "Today, the enemy troops are really acting strangely. They won''t come forward to challenge us, and they won''t do anything suspicious either.


    "Oh? Is that so? "Can you see what''s so good about the banner on the main battleship?"


    Shi Chen Wen tried his best to recall the scene above the other party''s banner. Other than the pigeon with its black and gold beak, there seemed to be nothing special about it, but as for the pigeon, Shi Chen Wen felt that it was extremely strange. Not only was it special, its body was also twice the size of a normal pigeon.


    "Honorable Master, there has always been a pigeon with a black and gold beak in the sky above the banner. This subordinate thinks that this pigeon is very strange, not only is it twice as strange as an ordinary pigeon, its appearance is also very strange. What''s even weirder is that I seem to be the only one who can see it."


    Wei Guogong heard and nodded her head, then continued: "It''s not just you, senior brother and I, her own disciples can all see it, it''s a secret technique from my sect, you can see it because I placed the rune earlier, if you don''t believe me, look at your chest, and see if there is a palm sized V symbol paper."


    Shi Chen Wen took the opportunity to touch his chest and as expected, took out a red-colored talisman paper with a yellow edge. Placing it in front of his eyes, he saw that it was drawing a mess of symbols with cinnabar.


    After Wei Guogong received the paper, she carefully folded the paper and placed it back into her sleeves. She turned around and walked into the tent happily.


    "General Shi, please come in." The old and powerful voice of the Wei Guogong came out from inside the tent. Right after she finished speaking, Shi Chen Wen walked in through the curtain.


    Shi Chen Wen who had entered the pavilion was quietly standing in his original position, waiting for the Wei Guogong and the servant at the head of the table to finish their conversation. After they had finished, Shi Chen Wen watched as the servant left the pavilion, then respectfully saluted Wei Guogong who was seated at the head of the pavilion.


    The Wei Guogong nodded her head lightly and gestured for the other party to sit down, "The pigeon with a black and gold beak that you saw today was actually not a pigeon, but a paper pigeon depicted in black paint.


    "Signal?"


    "This signal is the final chess piece of the game that we agreed to meet in half a month. Since you have already seen the signal, you must immediately go and forge a batch of iron chains as thick as a fist."


    Shi Chen Wen was puzzled, "Duke, why do we need to smelt some iron chains? Could this have something to do with the last battle half a month later? "


    Of course, this plan came from Senior Brother. He said that the Han people of Sky Dynasty do not like fighting in the water, and once they board the ship, sixty percent of them will vomit, and they will not be able to fight normally. It would be better to use iron chains to link all the ships together, and when we fight again, it would be like walking on flat ground, as if we were standing on mud.


    Shi Chen Wen lowered his eyebrows, and thought about the possibility of successfully suppressing the enemy with this iron lock warship. However, this was the first time he had heard of this strategy on the water, so he didn''t know where to start, and could only temporarily put it aside.


    "General Shi, you have to finish forging this iron chain as soon as possible. You also need to give the soldiers a few days to get used to walking and running on the warship."


    Wei Guogong had an extraordinary amount of confidence in her control over the whole situation. If she could get help from her talented senior brother, who was one of her generation, he would definitely win this battle.


    Shi Chen Wen had no other choice but to go forward and receive his orders, "Yes," he turned around and left the tent.


    Although he had a portion of water troops that could be said to be comparable to the elite troops of one sob tribe, there were still more than half of the army that were not good at swimming and fighting on the water. Although he had trained for an emergency with the army for a period of time when he was leaving, the effect of fighting on the water a few days ago didn''t seem to be very obvious.


    If the plan was to link all the warships with iron chains and the bodies of the warships would be numberless, all the warriors would be able to walk on flat ground. Would that solve the problem then?


    Since he was confident about the fifth floor, Shi Chen Wen decided to give it a try.


    Shi Chen Wen returned the daily training for soldiers to Xu Xi to complete. He brought a pair of Dreamy Cloud City soldiers to find a forging shop, and paid the price of five gold per day to spend the entire day in the shop. After burying his head in the fire, he spent the entire day walking around the forging furnace, and the soldiers all followed their generals without complaint as they did things that were incomprehensible to them.


    On this day, he had just finished forging a hundred meter long metal chain. His entire body was drenched in sweat, and his upper body was leaning against a wooden pillar, drinking a mouthful of hot water that was placed beside the stove. However, his gaze was focused on the boiling Dreamy Cloud City Street.


    It had to be said that the Dreamy Cloud City was truly a rich and prosperous place. Just from the clothes and accessories that came and went from the ordinary citizens, one could tell how luxurious this city was.


    The Dreamy Cloud City was known as the most powerful in the capital, and Shi Chen Wen had seen this piece of Yunmeng Silk once before. It could even be said that when placed in his hands, it was as gentle as a white cloud floating in the sky, and when gently caressed, it would feel extremely smooth, just like a devastatingly beautiful lady with glossy black hair.


    There was once a beauty who didn''t believe it. She took a bath in the water while wearing the Cloud Dream Silk. When she stood up, besides her lower body being soaked in the water, the water from her upper body was dripping down her smooth clothes.


    After that, Dreamy Cloud silk received another name, beautiful silk.


    And this beauty silk was something that even thousands of gold could not buy in the capital. And the citizens of Dreamy Cloud City all wore clothes cut from the Dreamy Cloud silk, even the clothes on the half of the beggars'' bodies were made from the patchwork of Dreamy Cloud silk.


    Shi Chen Wen looked at the people on the street who were walking around. After resting for a moment, he once again focused on forging the iron chains.


    After toiling for a few days like this, Shi Chen Wen finally managed to bring the soldiers back to the camp ten days later to report to the Wei Guogong. Then, he immediately rushed to the Yongan River and placed the iron chains on the bows and stern of each ship.

 C377

    In the remaining days, Shi Chen Wen personally led the soldiers and drilled them on the warships that were locked up. The effect was different from how he used to force the soldiers to get used to fighting in the water, but this time, the iron chains strategy was to objectively look at the situation during battle. This way, everyone could focus more on improving their own abilities.


    During the training, Wei Guogong came here specially once, mainly to see if the iron chains could plan for it. It allowed the army, which did not need to learn to swim, to have a smooth and convenient time to fight.


    Seeing that the day of implementation of the last step of the plan was approaching, Wei Guogong''s solemn face was already beginning to be covered with ice shards, and whether or not the plan would really come to fruition, Shi Chen Wen''s heart began to thump a little.


    According to what Wei Guogong and her senior had agreed upon, this day was neither too fast nor too slow.


    Today, to the famous Master of Justice, Wei Guogong, it would be worth applauding and cheering for him to once again take back this group of barbarians.


    If God felt that this was enough to calm the world down and stop the flames from burning, God definitely wouldn''t do that, because God was also bored sometimes and needed to find something to do to relieve his boredom.


    It was still the same old rules. When the situation was ugly, the best way to act was to bury the stove to cook, and the ring-hour would order the troops on stage.


    When everything was ready, everyone boarded the warship. The weather wasn''t too good today, and dark clouds could be seen rolling in from the horizon. The solemn atmosphere made all the soldiers hold their breath, waiting for the moment to meet the enemy.


    This time, the Wei Guogong personally came to the front lines, and went up to the general deck on the main ship with Shi Chen Wen.


    Through the observation mirror, we could clearly see every single movement of the enemy. With such a large army on board the ship, Wei Guogong did not believe that the enemy did not know about it.


    Wei Guogong estimated the enemy''s army from the mirror, which was about one third of the original number. With such a small number, even using their own numbers, would be enough to completely suppress them. There seemed to be some kind of mystery behind it.


    The Wei Guogong did not think too much, she was sure that the other party would not know that she was going to come to challenge them, and must have withdrawn a portion of her troops. Since that was the case, why did she not strike first and catch the enemy off guard, letting him get out of the Eternal An River, and chasing him back to her home before taking care of him?


    "General Shi, go challenge him!" Wei Guogong''s cold voice carried a hint of majesty.


    "General." Shi Chen Wen performed a military salute, turned around and brought his Lieutenant General with him onto another warship, which was parked by the side. The warship immediately headed to the side of the enemy warship that was 100 kilometers away.


    Wei Guogong picked up the observation mirror, frowning deeply. Passing through the observation mirror, he saw a familiar figure, which disappeared in an instant.


    Following that, Shi Chen Wen''s challenge was accompanied by the provocative roar of the warship, causing a disturbance in the enemy battleship that was originally on the armoury. Wei Guogong suddenly saw Shi Chen Wen''s warship rushing towards our camp at the fastest speed possible.


    The doubt in the Wei Guogong''s mind slowly rose, because he did not see the enemy ship chasing Shi Chen Wen behind him. Instead, she looked at Shi Chen Wen, who had rushed over to the main ship in a hurry.


    Withdrawing the observation mirror, Wei Guogong waved her hand and quickly brought the main ship to the side of the warship that Shi Chen Wen was on. When the two ships stabilized, Shi Chen Wen quickly rushed to Wei Guogong''s side.


    Shi Chen Wen pointed to the special warship that he used to challenge others, but did not connect to other warships, and said, "Duke, look over there."


    After Shi Chen Wen finished speaking, all the soldiers who were fighting with him, without exception, all died miserably in the midst of the warship. Something was swaying within the warship, and from the sounds, it did not seem to be big, but from the sounds, one could deduce that there were definitely a lot of them.


    Wei Guogong''s eyes were filled with anger, he did not see what was causing it, because the moment he heard the voice, she immediately made all the boats retreat 100 kilometers.


    "Why are you the only one safe and sound in General Shi?" Wei Guogong''s face was covered densely in black clouds, something that was sharp like a sharp blade swept past Shi Chen Wen''s ear from within his low voice.


    "I don''t know, but one of the three strange warships that the enemy was fighting at that time had already left. When I saw it, I felt something was wrong and immediately ordered the ship to move, but I was still a step too late, and by the time we left the ship, several people had already been bitten by the arrows shot by the enemy. I don''t know why, but those things didn''t come close to me, so I managed to retrieve my life."


    It was not that the Wei Guogong was a spy, it was just that in just two hours, many things had happened that she was unable to understand.


    First was when Shi Chen Wen had called for a fight, the enemy had set up an ambush, and then there was the fact that he had lost contact with his senior brother in the enemy camp. These two things seemed to have no connection at all, was there a hidden connection between them?


    Wei Guogong walked to the side of the ship and suddenly smelled a familiar smell in the air. It smelled like a type of Chinese medicine, but she was unable to figure out what kind of medicine it was.


    Shi Chen Wen quickly followed the Wei Guogong, he turned and looked at the vast Yongan River, it was calm and desolate, and it was almost noon, yet there was still not a single bit of sunlight, the sky seemed to be rolling up with black clouds, and it had already started to spread over everyone''s heads, and everything looked gloomy, without any passion at all, causing them to be extremely angry.


    "Gulp." A sound similar to the sound of boiling water on a furnace slowly rushed towards the ears of everyone present. Shi Chen Wen leaned close to the side of the boat, and stretched out his head to listen for the source of the sound.


    A strange sound, that was gradually approaching, was suddenly mixed with the rolling thunder. The heavens had not given the Wei Guogong''s army any face, and at such an important moment, they actually grabbed a large amount of transparent pearls and scattered it towards the crowd.


    In this torrential rain that he was caught off guard, the scene of the rolling thunder and lightning suddenly increased by a bit. Shi Chen Wen touched the rain water on his face, and put his entire head close to the side of the ship.

 C378

    Wei Guogong pushed the umbrella that the servants were carrying, and leaned close to Shi Chen Wen''s ear, using all his strength to ask, "Did you hear what I meant?


    Shi Chen Wen''s eardrums started to vibrate due to his sudden roar, he only turned his head and shook his head at his opponent after a long while, then spoke with a face as calm as ever: "There seems to be something approaching us in the water, it just sounds like it came from the enemy camp, this general guesses, could it be that thing from before?"


    Wei Guogong pondered for a moment, then called out, "Prepare for battle."


    Unfortunately, the thunderstorm was too big and the sound of the drum was like trash right now. It was completely useless. In this world, other than thunder and lightning, there was nothing else that could be heard.


    Shi Chen Wen looked at the predicament our army was in, and for a moment, he did not know how to resolve it. He could only place his hopes on Wei Guogong, hoping that he would be able to think of a way to tide through this calamity.


    "Use the flag." Wei Guogong looked at the panicking soldiers, anger sinking into her dantian and roared out loud.


    "Yes," Shi Chen Wen quickly understood what he meant and immediately took the red banner handed to him by the assistant general and ran to the general''s platform to pass down the orders to the herald officers on the various warships.


    Fortunately it was daytime, so even though it was raining cats and dogs, Shi Chen Wen could still see most of the nearby warships, thus he passed down the order and ran quickly to the side of the ship through the rain.


    The Heavens had always liked to play tricks on mortals, so after seeing this scene, he decided to put the dark clouds and the thunderstorm back into his bag and continued watching.


    Seeing that the weather was changing so quickly, Shi Chen Wen was a little speechless. He turned his head and saw a large "chuan" word on Wei Guogong''s forehead, and followed her gaze into the river.


    It was fine if they didn''t look at it, but once Shi Chen Wen took a look, he couldn''t help but take a deep breath. Unknowingly, a bunch of unknown things had gathered below the boat, and this was different from the "Wings" he had encountered during the water battle before, it was even more terrifying and disgusting than the last time he had seen this kind of thing.


    His body was covered by a thick layer of viscous liquid. Even when he was in the water, he could smell a strong fishy smell and countless arrows. More accurately, they were like snakes, but they were not as agile as those snakes.


    "Look," someone on the boat shouted, and everyone unconsciously turned to look at the enemy. However, when Wei Guogong planned to let all the warships face off against the enemy, she realized that all the ships could not move forward. It was at this moment that everyone saw the enemy ships hidden in the shadows, but the total number of them was more than what they had in their own camp, there were definitely no shortage of them.


    While everyone was anxiously thinking about how to deal with this unknown creature, the enemy''s warship had already completely arrived in front of them. The enemy''s warship was still stuck to the ship by the something, making it impossible for it to move.


    "Junior brother, have you been well?"


    A man in black clothes appeared on the main ship, slowly approached the bow of the ship, snapped his fingers, and suddenly, something that was still sticking to the ship suddenly splashed into the river.


    Wei Guogong was absent-minded for a moment. A handsome youth who was pulled apart by the black cloth continued to say to Wei Guogong with a smile: "Junior Brother, it''s only been a few dozen or so times, and you don''t recognize your senior brother?"


    "Senior?" What''s wrong with you? "


    Before Wei Guogong could finish, she was received by the black clothed man, "Junior Brother, are you curious about Senior Brother''s outfit? Or are you curious as to why Senior Brother would be so frank about his relationship with you in front of all these people? "


    Wei Guogong looked at his senior brother''s handsome face, which had never changed for ten thousand years, and his face darkened. If she could not guess what was going on, she would probably be embarrassed, "Senior brother is a legendary expert in military matters, right? A year ago, you must have already pledged your allegiance to him, right? As for everything that happened previously, I presume that it was all done intentionally, right? "


    "Junior brother is smart indeed. Yes, one year ago, I already had a good relationship with Yinwu. Today, I''m here to fight with your army. To be more accurate, I''m going to get your army out of Yongan River."


    Wei Guogong was furious at these words, "As a Chinese, you actually betrayed your ancestors, do you have the face to meet your ancestors?"


    The black clothed man sneered. "Ancestor?" Do you know my real name? I am Yuanyu! "


    Wei Guogong was stupefied upon hearing this. She was unable to recover from her shock for a long time, and in the end, fled back to the main tent in a sorry state. Only then did she slowly recall the last scene of the battle.


    Only now did Wei Guogong realize that she had been tricked by the enemy. When the fire was about to reach her eyes, Shi Chen Wen protected him as she jumped into the Yongan River, but unexpectedly, there were no Gu s in the river.


    The next day, Wei Guogong hung up her war prevention badge.


    Three days later, news came from the enemy camp that Yuan Wu had been assassinated by Yuan Yu, and Yuan Yu was nowhere to be found.


    The Wei Guogong returned empty-handed after three consecutive battles. His Majesty was already infuriated and sent a messenger to the Dreamy Cloud City to scold him. The Emperor ordered that if he could not destroy the one sob tribe in this battle, the Wei Guogong would hand over her head.


    There were even rumors that Wei Guogong was deliberately asking her own senior brother to join the enemy army and use her demonic techniques to harm our soldiers. Of course, Shi Chen Wen had found the source of these rumors the moment he heard them.


    The rumors were coming from the kitchen, and a new young kitchen man had arrived recently. He was a straightforward, unrestrained, and very fond of making friends with all the soldiers in the army, and was thus very popular among the troops. When Shi Chen Wen went to find the kitchen door along the way, he just happened to see a few soldiers surrounding the young kitchen man in front of the stove. The young kitchen man was short and originally was not very tall, so when he tried to scrape his way through the crowd, he finally saw Little Linglong squatting on the ground.


    "Are you the new cook?" Shi Chen Wen frowned, his voice revealed the unmelting snow, causing everyone to tremble slightly.


    "Small... Small... He is the new kitchen man, I wonder what business does General Shi have? " The little kitchen man stood up, trembling, and stood respectfully on the spot.


    "Oh? "Why don''t you tell me what you were talking about?" Shi Chen Wen found a wooden chair and arrogantly sat down. The indifference and distance from his expression could clearly be seen.


    Just when Shi Chen Wen had found the kitchen, he specifically stood outside for a while. No one in the room had any idea that there was this "eavesdropper" standing outside the tent, continuing to talk as if there was no one around.

 C379

    Although the tent was made from cow skin, it was not soundproof, and when the people inside the tent saw Shi Chen Wen training with the soldiers, they lied about wanting to go to the Military Medical Center for treatment, but in reality, they had specially come to the kitchen to talk to the young kitchen man about the taboo in the army.


    "In that battle, the man in black from the enemy camp was clearly an old acquaintance of the Duke of Guo." "Even though the Duke of Guo sent her Senior Brother to seek refuge in the enemy camp and then pretended to fight with the enemy, he merely wanted us to die," "You guys still remember when we first returned, we immediately boarded the warship without resting, and even after that, we were still miserably defeated," Shi Chen Wen said.


    These scattered words had already coated Shi Chen Wen''s ice-cold face with a layer of frost.


    Now, he wanted to see how these people who were once his family would defend him.


    "General, we were talking just now ¡­" A tall and mighty strong man stepped forward, as though he was trying to defend his young partner, but before he could finish speaking, Shi Chen Wen glared at him with icy eyes, and swallowed the latter half of his words.


    "Did this general ask you? Are you him? " Shi Chen Wen let out a cold laugh, which was extremely cold.


    "Subordinate... "Subordinate ¡­" The sturdy man took a step back due to the cold Qi surrounding Shi Chen Wen. Trembling, he bent his body and wanted to continue speaking, but Shi Chen Wen impatiently waved his hand and interrupted him.


    "He said." Shi Chen Wen pointed at the young kitchen man who was "watching a good show", and said with an impatient tone.


    "Small... Just now, I was talking to the various military experts ¡­ Speak... Wei Guogong had lost a few battles in a row recently ¡­ "Yes ¡­"


    "How is it?"


    Shi Chen Wen snorted coldly, his tone filled with ill intent. The people he hated the most in his life were these kind of people who did not dare to do anything.


    "Yes, Gu Xi." The young kitchen man pursed his lips tightly, faintly feeling pitiful for the red teeth marks on the corner of his lips. Shi Chen Wen couldn''t help but curve his lips in ridicule when he looked at this indisputable man or woman who disguised herself to sneak into the army camp.


    You are only putting on an act in order to deceive this general. You have underestimated this general.


    Shi Chen Wen watched coldly from the side, he did not do anything else, but simply picked up a broken teapot on the table and slowly poured himself a cup of tea. He looked like he was lowering his head to drink, but he was only using his peripheral vision to observe the expressions of everyone present.


    There was a familiar feeling telling him that there must be someone with ill intentions among this group of people. At the moment, the military base was in a state of imminent danger. If someone were to throw a stone at this moment, then the entire military base would be in danger.


    The most important thing at the moment was to find this person quickly, and of all the people present, this seemingly timid and cowardly young kitchen man was the most suspicious.


    Shi Chen Wen absent-mindedly drank the last mouthful of tea in his cup, and raised his head to look at the crowd that were violently quivering like a pendulum. He sneered in his heart, and dared to talk about the commander in chief in the army, but did not dare to bear the consequences.


    This kind of man who didn''t dare take responsibility for his actions had actually appeared in his own army camp. Shi Chen Wen deeply felt that the recruitment policy these past few years had already become so preposterous.


    It might be because they were frightened by the cold look on Shi Chen Wen''s face, or perhaps because he did not dare to be the number one person seeking death. In any case, after seeing the actions of the muscular man, everyone present immediately knelt down in front of Shi Chen Wen as if they were waking up from a nightmare.


    Shi Chen Wen looked at the young kitchen man with a cold glare, the expression on his face was strange, "Why do you have to kneel before this general?"


    "Subordinate... He shouldn''t have been so presumptuous about the commander in chief, and he even spread this rumor... Subordinate... "You know your wrongs." The burly man with a big waist prostrated himself on the ground. His forehead was pressed against the ground and he kept spitting out some words from his mouth. His slightly trembling body exposed the fear in his heart without a doubt.


    "Oh? "So you also know that it''s a felony to presume that the marshal is the one in the movie. How do you think this general should punish all of you?"


    Shi Chen Wen looked at the young kitchen man and retracted his gaze. He understood.


    "General, please forgive us. This subordinate will not dare to do so again."


    Shi Chen Wen no longer paid attention to the kneeling crowd, and once again looked at the trembling young kitchen man in the corner. The weather today seemed to be especially sunny and clear, and this place was a corner of the Dreamy Cloud City, which was a bit unique, with a unique climate. At this time, almost all of the citizens in the imperial city were wearing bloated winter clothes, and even His Majesty the emperor was wearing red fox fur coats to settle political affairs.


    The blue sky was as clear as a bath. The warm sun lazily hung in the sky, emitting countless gentle and comfortable rays of light that illuminated the earth.


    Strands of sunlight shone through the window that had the cowhide curtain rolled up, gently shining on everyone. Shi Chen Wen looked at the young man who was hiding beside the stove.


    The warm sunlight shone onto the side of the water vat, making it shine with a rainbow light. In just an instant, Shi Chen Wen had accidentally caught sight of the light that was reflected off of half of the person''s face, and a mocking expression flashed across his face. If not for Shi Chen Wen''s sharp eyes, he would not have reacted so quickly.


    Shi Chen Wen laughed coldly in his heart, there must be a problem with this young kitchen man.


    The few men who knelt on the ground were so terrified that they kowtowed and admitted their wrongs. They were truly afraid that Shi Chen Wen, the upright and unyielding general, would enforce the law impartially, and if he was truly unwilling to forgive everyone, then one of them would secretly discuss the commander in chief in the end to provoke the soldiers into committing such a heinous crime.


    The sun was high in the sky, and the sun shone brightly in most of the kitchen. However, as the temperature in the kitchen gradually dropped, the bright sunlight seemed to turn into sharp blades that cut into everyone''s bodies.


    Shi Chen Wen did not want to alert the enemy, since he had already decided that the young kitchen boy had a spy ¡­


    Since it was suspected, he would keep it with him for the time being to see what his final goal was.


    He did not believe that the enemy would send a spy to sow discord in our army.


    There must be some kind of unspeakable secret behind all this.

 C380

    Shi Chen Wen still impartially executed the law as usual. Since they knew that it was against the law, they were punished to fight a hundred times and were chased out of the army camp.


    As for the young kitchen man, because he was not from the army, he was only a chef hired by the Dreamy Cloud City temporarily. He did not return to the army, but the young kitchen man spread rumors in the army and was sentenced to half a month''s imprisonment.


    Shi Chen Wen purposely read out the rules of punishment to everyone on a sunny afternoon and personally carried out the military duties. The reason for this was to calm the hearts of the soldiers and to kill the chickens for the monkeys to see.


    The military camp was not comparable to the streets and alleys in the market. If someone was willing to instigate the army, it would certainly cause chaos within the army. At this time, the enemy would attack and destroy the entire army.


    Shi Chen Wen would definitely not let such a thing happen.


    The army once again became a pool of clear and murky water. No one dared to discuss the commander in chief in private anymore, and each returned to their own positions, but they kept quiet about this matter. Although they were not curious about it, they still had their doubts, but with the previous example, they could only shut their mouths obediently.


    Shi Chen Wen had reorganized the army camp once again, and the way they combined their power had to be admired by everyone. After hearing what was said, Wei Guogong sighed, thinking that he had a good general with him, and would not have any regrets in her life.


    A few days later, Shi Chen Wen deliberately called back the young kitchen man''s personal follower from the shadows. "Is there anything abnormal about her?"


    The servant hid in the darkness, his voice cold, "General, this person has no strange movements, it''s just ¡­"


    Shi Chen Wen heard the other party''s doubt, and immediately asked: "But what about it?"


    "It''s just that this person seems to be especially used to using all kinds of spices when cooking. In fact, it''s not accurate because every time she cooks, she likes to go to the back mountain and find a plant. I''ve also picked one of this plant before and showed it to an experienced doctor, saying it''s just a type of grass, but it''s useless."


    "No poison?"


    "No poison."


    Shi Chen Wen''s sensitive nerves allowed him to feel that this matter was not as simple as the other party had said. Only after filtering the faces of everyone in the army and the injuries of the military doctors one by one and discovering that there was no food poisoning or special illness did the doubt in his heart disappear.


    "Continue to monitor her. If there are any problems, report to my tent immediately," After Shi Chen Wen''s cold and detached voice fell, only the sound of leaves being brushed past could be heard behind him. After a while, everything returned to silence of the night.


    A few days later, Wei Guogong, who had rested in the middle of the main camp for a few days, finally showed up in front of everyone. When everyone was immersed in the excitement of the commander''s recovery, unimaginably grievous news came one step at a time.


    Because of the previous battle in the water, the Wei Guogong was forced to jump into the water with Shi Chen Wen to escape from the enemy camp''s encirclement. The old man did not want Shi Chen Wen, who was a youth who was filled with vigor, to be unable to follow his will after entering the water.


    After rushing back to the camp, he became seriously ill and handed over the military power in his hands to Shi Chen Wen for the time being.


    For a long time in a row, the Wei Guogong was unable to recover from the betrayal of his closest senior brother.


    Today, when everyone saw their marshal finally pull himself together, most of them let out a long sigh of relief and put down a heavy stone.


    "I have heard about everything that happened in the military camp when the Japanese officials were not feeling well. It is likely that all the soldiers are very curious about the man dressed in black who appeared in the enemy camp above the water station."


    Wei Guogong heard from the servants that during these few days, the people in the army were restless. Some people with ill intentions snuck into the army and spread rumors, and Shi Chen Wen specifically reported on it.


    Ever since he lost the water battle and returned, Wei Guogong could feel that the citizens of the Dreamy Cloud City, as well as the soldiers in his own army camp, were suspicious of him, so he was not frustrated at all, nor was he angry at all. After this battle, he was already prepared to be guessed at by the masses.


    And the reason why they gathered all the soldiers on the drill grounds today was because they wanted to make the plan that they and that person had previously set public. Although some people would guess that it was a trick, it was still better than the situation they were in with this shield in front of them.


    Everyone sighed. Although there were still some who didn''t understand the logic behind it, most of the soldiers could understand that this old duke, who was still killing enemies in front of the army despite his advanced age, would definitely not be a traitor.


    All the soldiers in the army calmed down. The atmosphere in the camp was much better than a few days ago, and Shi Chen Wen''s lessons for the past few days were also becoming more strict.


    The weather of the Dreamy Cloud City was always sunny and gloomy. The many days of gloom and gloom had also been dispersed quite a bit by today''s holiday.


    Today was the Flower Lantern Festival, which had been passed down in the Dreamy Cloud City for a thousand years. Different from the traditional Flower Lantern Festival in the capital, the Flower Lantern Festival in the Dreamy Cloud City was more beautiful and complex, colorful, and every day, the people in the city would wear gorgeous clothes and bring their own made lanterns to the upper reaches of the Yongan River, passing through a branch of the Dreamy Cloud City, even if there was a clear Yunmeng River in the city.


    When the Yunmeng River flowed out of the city and merged into the Yongan River, the various types of fish could be seen in the depths of the river. Occasionally, one could reach out and grab some prawns or small crabs from the river.


    Yun Meng He passed through the entire Dreamy Cloud City. During the Flower Lantern Festival, everyone in the city, from the oldest old people to the children, would bring a flower lantern to worship beside the Dreamy Cloud River.


    It was said that Dreamy Cloud City''s Lantern Festival was given to his by the Ancient Flower God, and that he unintentionally threw the Divine Flower in his hands off the Earth. Coincidentally, the Divine Flower fell into the Dreamy Cloud City and into this Dreamy Cloud River.


    From then on, every time this day came, all the citizens of the Dreamy Cloud City would make a special trip to the Dreamy Cloud River to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings.


    The young men and women in the city who had yet to marry were allowed to match each other after paying their respects to the Dreamy Cloud River.


    In the early morning, the Wei Guogong had already sent Shi Chen Wen to inform the army that during the Flower Lantern Festival, our troops would follow the customs of the countryside, thus, other than the soldiers who must stay to guard the camp.


    The other soldiers could go to the city for a stroll and report back to the military camp at the age of seven.

 C381

    Shi Chen Wen looked at the crowd of soldiers who were walking out of the military camp with their arms around his shoulders and a smile on their faces, then turned around and prepared to return to the drill grounds to practice by himself.


    "General Shi, why don''t you go take a look around the city? Today is going to be a rare day of peace! "


    Shi Chen Wen turned his head towards the direction of the laughter, and saw a tall and skinny man, who was usually closer to him, walking towards him while chuckling.


    "I''m not going, I still need to train?"


    Shi Chen Wen shook his head, he turned and was about to leave, but the man did not stop there, he immediately blocked his way in front of Shi Chen Wen, still smiling at him, and did not let him leave.


    "General Shi, let''s go! Normally, you would be fine with a straight face, but now we''re on vacation! Come on, come on, it''s said that there''s going to be a lot of beautiful food tonight! "


    The man was half a head taller than Shi Chen Wen. Although his arms were not as strong as Shi Chen Wen''s, it was a good thing that the man was tall and big, so when he held onto Shi Chen Wen, he half pushed him away from the camp.


    Shi Chen Wen''s face was still expressionless, but because the other party was someone close to him, he half followed him out of the camp.


    The man laughed merrily along with a few others who had just changed into casual clothes and caught up to him as he headed towards the most prosperous place in Dreamy Cloud City, Jinsha Lane, with their arms around his shoulders.


    Jinsi Alley was a bustling place filled with fences, warehouses, taverns, rouge shops, jewelry stores, etc. It was the most bustling place.


    They went into the busiest tavern in Jinsi Alley. The tavern was brimming with the joy and celebration of the Lantern Festival, which made the crowd of people who had just stepped out of the solemn military camp feel a lot more comfortable.


    The Undermoon Inn was the busiest place in Jinsi Alley, where people sold wine and delicacies, and the closest place was a railed courtyard. It was said that the most beautiful woman in the Dreamy Cloud City was the number one person in this house.


    The customers who chose the Moonlight Tavern were either for the wine and delicacies of this tavern, or to have the opportunity to take a peek at the beauty''s peerless beauty.


    And today, a large portion of the people in the tavern were here for the beauty.


    It was said that every year on the day of the Lantern Festival, beauties would appear in the Undermoon Inn. Of course, beauties would not sit together with ordinary mortals to enjoy delicious food and wine.


    Even so, it was enough for the crowd to feel flattered to be able to catch a glimpse of a beauty''s beauty.


    While Shi Chen Wen was pouring wine for himself, he lifted the exquisite white porcelain cloud wine cup on the short wooden table. His slender fingers gently tapped on the edge of the table, as if he was seriously listening to the rumors his friends were telling him.


    Within the bustling and noisy Undermoon Inn, most of the people there were rich and powerful Master s from the Dreamy Cloud City s. Only a small portion of the rustic men dressed in shabby clothes were gathered together, leaning against a wooden table in front of the door. If one listened carefully, there was a high chance that they were talking about the top beauty in the side of the rafters.


    Ding ding dong. The crisp sound of jade colliding could be heard outside the wooden door. Everyone in the tavern seemed to have heard the crisp sound as well. They all gradually stopped talking and turned to look at the door in unison.


    The crisp sound of the jade artifact was getting closer and closer. A red embroidered shoe inlaid with gold thread was revealed on the steps of the tavern. Following which, a light green skirt was revealed as the embroidered shoe stepped into the tavern.


    Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes slightly bent, forming a warm and beautiful crescent moon. The top quality Dreamy Cloud Silk Mask was cut to cover half of her beautiful face, only leaving behind a pair of beautiful eyes. Looking at the room full of men, the smile in her eyes gradually faded.


    All the men in the tavern took in a deep breath of cold air. The smile of a beauty was enough to topple half of Dreamy Cloud City with just a pair of eyes.


    Shi Chen Wen followed the crowd''s gaze and landed on the newcomer, and in an instant, they shifted their gazes back and forth. In that instant, their gazes met, and the smile that leaked out of the beauty''s eyes became even more obvious.


    Shi Chen Wen took the wine cup on the table and continued to drink by himself. Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the people around him, who seemed to all stare at the beauty at the door as if they had lost their souls.


    "The saliva is dripping down", Shi Chen Wen poked the tall man beside him with all seriousness. His tone was emotionless, only a hint of a smile revealed his master''s feelings.


    "Eh? "Where?" The tall man came back to his senses and quickly wiped his mouth with his sleeve.


    When the tall man saw the smile in Shi Chen Wen''s eyes, he lowered his head and placed his sleeves before his eyes and stared at the clean and pure sleeves that were extremely sharp to the point where they were creases, and only then did he react. He glared fiercely at Shi Chen Wen, and grabbed the last cup of wine in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.


    Shi Chen Wen lifted the teapot on the table and was about to turn to call the waiter to fill the pot again, when he saw an emerald green color. Looking upwards along the green color, he saw a smiling face that had always been hidden underneath, causing Shi Chen Wen to be slightly startled.


    "May I ask if young master can let this servant gather the dishes on your table?" Just now, the boss said that there were important guests in the private room today and that they had already booked all the rooms. It''s not like I can find a suitable place in the main hall at the moment, Young Noble, what do you think? "


    The beautiful woman''s sweet voice sounded out beside Shi Chen Wen''s ears. All the males except Shi Chen Wen all stood up and made way for her.


    Shi Chen Wen felt that he had seen this woman''s smile somewhere before. Just now, when she was smiling at him, that feeling started to rise, but that feeling was too ethereal, he couldn''t grab hold of her.


    Furthermore, Shi Chen Wen was not the only table with seats in the hall that was empty. There were a few empty seats beside the table of young man who looked like a son from a wealthy family in the city.


    It was such a good thing for Shi Chen Wen to train in the sensitivity of beasts, which made him not have too much good of a impression of this girl. He couldn''t help but move while leaning against the wall.


    All of the men in the tavern under the moon shot envious and resentful gazes towards Shi Chen Wen''s table. However, as one of the generals in the army, those young generals who killed their enemies without the slightest fear were not even enough to tickle themselves.

 C382

    As for his best friend, the other party, who was already in the midst of a heated conversation with the beautiful lady, had completely disregarded his jealousy.


    When they realized that they couldn''t burn each other out of jealousy, a few well-dressed men who were leaning against the window had already passed through the crowded tavern and walked towards Shi Chen Wen''s table.


    He couldn''t help but marvel at this era where beauties like the one beside him were not only peerlessly beautiful, but also had a beautiful scenery where they would casually stay with just a lily-tongue-in-cheek mouth.


    Shi Chen Wen sat alone in the corner quietly as he watched the few popinjays being gently persuaded back by the beauty. With a face full of infatuation, he slowly walked towards his table three times.


    Actually, even though Shi Chen Wen had been watching from the sidelines just now, when the woman resolved the misunderstanding between her lips, the few popinjays at Shi Chen Wen''s table had even resolved their enmity and even had the intention to pick a fight with him.


    "This servant''s name is Xuanyu, so this is what the young masters call this one. Today, I only asked mother for half an hour, and unexpectedly met all the young masters. Next time, the young masters can come to Hibiscus to find me."


    Everyone knew that there was a beauty in the fence, but they didn''t know what her name was. Seeing that the beauty was about to leave and introducing herself, they were all overwhelmed and told each other her surname.


    Xuan Yu lifted the coarse wine pot on the table with her slender hands. Her cardamom nail seemingly brushed past the pot''s opening unintentionally. After drinking a cup of wine, she hurriedly bid farewell to the crowd and left the Undermoon Inn.


    When the tall guy picked up the wine pot and poured a cup with Shi Chen Wen, his eyes followed the beautiful figure of Xuan Yu and stopped at the door for a moment.


    Shi Chen Wen detected his abnormal movements, he turned and looked towards the tavern''s entrance, it was empty, other than a bunch of men who were staring at the door in a daze, there was nothing else.


    "What''s wrong?" Shi Chen Wen patted the tall man lightly, his face full of confusion and puzzlement.


    "Hmm? It''s nothing, haha. "The tall man thought he was seeing things, so he didn''t pursue the matter. Instead, he put on a sloppy look."


    After the few of them had eaten their fill, they turned out of the Jinsi Alley, smiling and laughing as they slowly walked back to the military camp.


    After Shi Chen Wen stepped into the camp, he immediately rushed to the camp''s main tent. He had expected that Wei Guogong would be sitting on the table right now, as if he had already calculated the time she would come and report to him.


    "What''s wrong?" Wei Guogong''s face was ice-cold.


    Shi Chen Wen bowed slightly, and returned respectfully: "Returning Duke, there isn''t anything abnormal. Besides a brothel girl, I feel that it''s very strange!"


    Shi Chen Wen told the Wei Guogong, who was in charge of the restaurant under the moon, everything that happened to him in detail.


    Wei Guogong picked up the tea that had become cold who knows when, and drank the rest. She then slowly started to speak with a cold voice, "You send people to keep an eye on that woman, and how is the woman that you confined in the kitchen?"


    As soon as Shi Chen Wen entered the army camp to report to them, before he even had the time to call over the servants to inquire about the situation, he heard the Wei Guogong suddenly mentioning, and immediately called for his servants.


    "How is the woman?" The Wei Guogong casually asked the skinny youth that attacked.


    The thin youth was Shi Chen Wen''s personal attendant, the woman sent to monitor the kitchen, only to hear that he had not completely taken off his childish voice, and anxiously reported, "Reporting to the Duke, that woman ¡­ Today, the ring-hour have not appeared again after they went out of courtesy. "


    "What?" Shi Chen Wen made a startled and furious sound before the Wei Guogong, and her deep voice couldn''t help but cause the servant to instantly kneel to the ground, trembling with fear.


    "If I can''t even look at a woman, what''s the use of having you?" Shi Chen Wen was a little furious, he stepped forward and ruthlessly kicked the youth, and immediately bent over to beg for forgiveness.


    "It is this lowly general who did not properly control the situation. I beg the duke to punish this lowly general."


    How could the Wei Guogong not see that Shi Chen Wen did all this for the sake of punishing his own subordinate? To the Wei Guogong, such a valiant general was indeed a loyal person.


    "Now is not the time to care about right or wrong. First, send someone to monitor that brothel girl. As for her disguise as a female in the army camp, there must be some kind of unspeakable secret."


    Wei Guogong''s eyebrows were filled with power, Shi Chen Wen frowned.


    This woman thought that disguising herself as a woman would allow her to sneak into the army camp to confuse the crowd. However, since the woman''s characteristics were too obvious, he had vaguely realized it the first time he had met her.


    Today was Flower Lantern Festival, the reason the Wei Guogong allowed the soldiers to enter the city and follow the customs was because according to the reports of the spies from the Wei Guogong, there were some spies from the one sob tribe who snuck into the Dreamy Cloud City, which was why they secretly sent people out to mix with the soldiers, and Shi Chen Wen was one of them.


    Dreamy Cloud City, Moonlight Tavern Number One.


    A person whose entire body was wrapped in a thick black cloth sat on a wooden table in front of the desk. His eyes were filled with the faint yellow glow of a candle flame, as if he was focusing all of his energy on the table lamp.


    "Senior brother, things went according to plan. The Gu will devour people''s hearts in three days."


    A sweet and gentle female voice came from outside the door. After receiving a cold reply, the room once again fell into silence.


    There seemed to be something strange wriggling in the eyes of the man sitting in front of the wooden table, but it was concealed by the dim yellow candle flame in an instant.


    Life in the army camp had always been boring and boring. Today, two youths who had just joined the army sneakily took advantage of Shi Chen Wen''s departure to enter the kitchen, looking for food to fill their stomach.


    Ever since the kitchen man in front of him had mysteriously disappeared, the food in the barracks had become much worse.


    Today, the two of them were disgusted by the specialty dish of the new chef, so they secretly poured it out.


    The two of them gently pulled open the cowhide curtain in the kitchen and snuck beside the stove. Just as they were about to flip through the steamer, they saw a pair of black shriveled claws stretching out from the stove.


    Out of curiosity, the two sneakily approached the stove. It was good that they didn''t look at it, but when they did, they both stood on the spot in fright. Only after a moment did they realize that they had forgotten their goal.


    By the time Shi Chen Wen arrived, the Wei Guogong was already in the kitchen. Other than the Wei Guogong and Shi Chen Wen, as well as their two personal guards, the rest of the people were blocked outside the kitchen.


    "Duke, this is?" Shi Chen Wen walked over to Wei Guogong and looked at the shriveled up body inside the stove. Around the body was a circle of charred things, and upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the remains of some kind of insect.

 C383

    "It''s the parasite, I thought that after senior died and his disciple went missing, no one would order the Gu to harm anyone, but now it seems like this old man was too naive, that person should still be around, or more accurately, by our side."


    Shi Chen Wen was extremely cold and nodded his head steadily. Looking at this scene, it seemed like only the Gu could appear beside him soundlessly, and take the chance to give everyone a fatal blow when they relaxed their guard.


    Initially, there was a rule in the sect that stated that one could learn the art of the Witch Gu and not use it. But his senior brother not only used it on his own accord, but did not restrain his disciple either.


    "Duke?" "What should we do with the corpse?"


    Shi Chen Wen knew how strong the Gu poison was and did not dare to rashly go forward.


    "The Gu in his body has yet to fully awaken, so you can''t touch him. Get someone to tear down the tent, then move all of these items out, bring some firewood over and burn them on the spot. Finally, hand over some silver and ashes to his family."


    "Yes."


    Shi Chen Wen accepted the orders and prepared to go. Wei Guogong felt a faint unease in her heart, as she felt that this matter could not be just an ending.


    The kitchen was torn down and moved to another place, where they were quickly witnessed by witnesses. The two who were just punished by Shi Chen Wen and ran out of the camp like ghosts crying and wolves howling, wailing and crying as they recounted the horrifying scene they witnessed to the rest of the people.


    It only took a few hours for all the soldiers in the huge military camp to learn of this terrifying matter.


    A few days ago, the calm and tranquil situation had once again been pushed into a violent storm.


    High in the sky, the Wei Guogong who was just resting suddenly opened her eyes from her light sleep. Her hands trembled as she held her chest, and suddenly, a mouthful of sweet and fishy blood was spat out from her throat with a "pu" sound.


    "Duke, what''s wrong?"


    When the attendants in the outer tent heard the commotion inside, they quickly ran in barefooted, their clothes draped over their disheveled hair.


    The Wei Guogong waved his hand weakly, pointing to the candlestick on the table opposite him, indicating for him to take it.


    The servant brought the candle close to the mouthful of pus and blood that Wei Guogong had just vomited. It was different from ordinary human blood, the almost black blood contained half a finger''s worth of equally pitch-black insects, and the insects'' entire body also carried a thick liquid.


    When the servant saw this scene, not only did he feel disgusted, but because Wei Guogong was by her side, she had no choice but to resist vomiting and continue getting closer to the pool of blood.


    "It''s actually ¡­" Wei Guogong looked at the worms in her blood and understood what was going on.


    "Duke, what is this?" The servant looked at the disgusting bug inside the pus and blood, and was about to ask what it was when he realized that Wei Guogong had already fainted. He immediately threw the light stand and ran out to get someone.


    In the middle of the night, the military camp became restless. The people who should have been immersed in their dreams were shocked by the bad news.


    First, the Wei Guogong suddenly vomited blood in the middle of the night, and a bug flew out of his stomach. After checking it with the doctor, she found that, at the same time as he was infected with the Lich Gu, there was also another bug sleeping soundly in his stomach. It was said that once she regained consciousness, the Duke of Guo would not be able to protect her life.


    And for the time being, he could only use medicine to keep the Gu worm in his stomach asleep, unable to be eradicated.


    Following the arrival of the Wei Guogong''s grievous news, General Shi Chen Wen suddenly felt an itch on his right arm during his midnight patrol, and accidentally scratched his skin. He actually discovered a finger-sized insect eating his flesh, and under General Shi''s logic, he had no choice but to draw his blade and cut off his right arm.


    The military commander had been severely injured and had fainted. The general had also lost his right arm. Such a painful blow had caused an uproar in the military camp.


    Shi Chen Wen didn''t know when he became a parasite, but he felt that he must have some sort of connection with the woman who had snuck into the army and the woman he bumped into at the Moonlight Tavern.


    That girl was the missing ring-hour, while Hua Kui had appeared in the tavern at noon. There was an hour''s time between them, could it be?


    The enemy had used such a malicious trick on him and the commander-in-chief. This was undoubtedly another defeat. Losing without a fight was the shame of humiliation!


    Zhou Yao''s act of stepping forward had left a good impression on Xi Jiu Er, when her body was ready, he would pay her respects to Xi Jiu Er and thank him. Xi Jiu Er sat in the carriage and arrived at the front door of the Zhou Mansion. The door was tightly shut, and after Dong Zhu knocked on the door for a while, it was opened by the servants: "Who are you, who are you looking for?"


    "We are Mrs. IX s of the Prince Xian''s Mansion, we have come to pay our respects to Miss Zhou Yao." These days, Dong Zhu was no longer the yellow haired maid that timidly entered the palace. After staying in the palace for a period of time, her bearing was even more noble than the older maids.


    When the Zhou family servants saw him, they hurriedly opened the door and smiled apologetically: "So it''s Mrs. IX from Prince Xian''s Mansion. I failed to recognize him and deserved to die." Without leaving a trace, he received the reward from Dong Zhu. His entire face blossomed, good boy, Prince Xian''s Mansion was indeed generous, at least one tael of silver each.


    The manor was very quiet. The servant turned to the servant who had hurried over: "This is Mrs. IX, she has come to find us Great Miss. May I ask where the Great Miss went?"


    That person had a weird look on his face. He cupped his hands towards Xi Jiu Er and said, "Reporting to Mrs. IX, the Great Miss is still undergoing her training. Our second Madame said that it was a disgrace for him to fight with a man a few days ago. Servant is going to notify the two Madame s. "


    "There''s no need. Where is the Great Miss being trained? Take me to him." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently, with a kind of majesty that could not be refused. The servants thought to themselves that this Madame was indeed strange, what was not pretty was worth watching and being trained. Look, is she related to the Great Miss? The man turned his head and was about to return to report, but was stopped by Xi Jiu Er: "Halt, I don''t know the way. Don''t tell me you want me to walk around blindly?"


    The gatekeeper, seeing that he had nothing to do, ran out laughing.


    "Servant is confused, Servant is stupid."


    When he arrived at the courtyard of the second Madame, he heard the shrill voice of a woman, "Still trying to quibble! Say, did those dandelions look down on you? "Speak!" With these two words, it was as if he was certain that Zhou Yao had been humiliated. Everyone said that their families were ugly, so this Second Madame seemed to be eager to spread the news.


    "No!" Zhou Yao''s voice sounded very resolute and resolute and resolute and decisive.


    "You''ve grown up." Xi Jiu Er did not even need to think to know what would happen next. She immediately pushed the door and entered.

 C384

    The commotion startled everyone in the courtyard. They all looked towards the door and saw a noble woman dressed as a noble. She did not speak, but her eyes were cold. Second Madame frowned: "Who are you?"


    "Second Madame, she is a Mrs. IX of the Prince Xian. She said that she has something to look for us ¡ª the Great Miss." The maidservant forced a smile.


    Once Xi Jiu Er''s identity was revealed, the second Madame became like a different person. She was extremely warm and passionate as she stood up and laughed, "Oh Mrs. IX, come and sit, are you here to find a girl? You don''t know what disgraceful things this girl did a few days ago! "


    The second Madame said complacently. Xi Jiu Er asked calmly: "A few days ago? I am also here because of what happened a few days ago! " The subcutaneous meat did not laugh as it stared at Second Madame: "That day, I was slighted by a few bad people. If it wasn''t for Miss Zhou stepping forward, the consequences would have been unthinkable. I came here to thank you. "


    The expression of the two Madame s stiffened. Luckily she reacted quickly and helped Zhou Yao up, not mentioning what happened before at all. "My good daughter!" Zhou Yao''s eyes turned cold, she pushed the two Madame s away and bowed to Xi Jiu Er, and Xi Jiu Er took the chance to speak out in front of the two Madame: "Zhou Yao is someone that Mubai has her eyes on!"


    Second Madame''s body trembled, her face contorted as though she was saying something, and said repeatedly: "Aiya, it''s this girl''s luck."


    handed the gift to Zhou Yao and left with a smile. When she returned to the Prince Xian''s Mansion, she took Xi Jiu Er to the courtyard without stopping, making Xi Jiu Er feel extremely confused.


    On this day, Prince Xian was summoned by Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge into the palace, and after a while, he didn''t come back and instructed Dong Zhu to go to the palace.


    After waiting for a long time, Jiu Er still did not see the figures of Dong Zhu and Prince Xian. "Madame, someone is coming from outside. If it''s not Prince Xian, then it''s the Emperor. Something isn''t right, Servant should go into hiding first, so we can wait for the opportunity to make our move."


    Xi Jiu Er was startled. The Emperor? Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge? What was he doing? Taking a deep breath, he heard sounds of movement coming from the courtyard. When the door opened, he saw the maid looking at him in panic. She looked down and said, "You guys can leave first."


    "Yes!" The servants pushed open the door as they left, revealing a man in a yellow robe. His whole body was filled with an imposing aura, and he was extraordinarily handsome. He slowly walked in front of Xi Jiu Er with his hands behind his back, and stared at Xi Jiu Er''s stomach with a complicated expression: "Jiu Er, you''re truly bold."


    Xi Jiu Er bowed slightly as she supported her, "This subject greets Your Majesty. After a long while, when she was almost at her limit, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge finally said slowly: "Stand up."


    "Thank you, your majesty." Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge must have found out about the matter with the child, or else he wouldn''t have this kind of expression, and definitely wouldn''t say something so brazen. He wondered why he was here.


    With his hands behind his back, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge took the initiative to walk to the nearby bamboo chair and sit down. He looked at Xi Jiu Er and smiled faintly, "Come sit here, let''s chat about the old days together." However, the more it was like this, the more Xi Jiu Er felt uneasy. She was outnumbered, and in the capital, she was just like a fish on a chopping board that was still being butchered.


    Since he was already here, he might as well take things as they came.


    After that, he unceremoniously sat in front of Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, without opening his mouth, waiting for to continue speaking. It was as quiet as a water lotus, it was extremely pleasing to look at. A gust of wind lifted her soft hair, adding a touch of gentleness to it.


    If one were to look carefully at her jade-like skin, one would be unable to help themselves from wanting to touch it. Especially those pair of eyes which were bright and clear, when looking at her, it was even purer without any impurities. He had once thought, living in such an environment, plotting, fighting, killing, how could she possess such clear eyes?


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge stared at her, but the woman did not show the slightest bit of shyness nor panic. She just looked over quietly, as if she could speak. It was his first time seeing such a woman. If he could grasp her in time a long time ago, he would definitely grab onto her tightly. This zodiac ¡­ Too lonely.


    Unfortunately, he missed it in the end.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s eyes were changing unpredictably and his heart was also changing in an unpredictable manner, he could roughly guess what his plans were. This was Feng Qing Cheng''s child, an unborn prince. He could use this child to exchange for many things, such as land, or conditions that were beneficial to him.


    Taking a deep breath, she asked, "Where is Prince Xian?"


    "He''s at the palace. I actually got drunk drinking with him. What do you mean by ''a thousand glasses of wine isn''t drunk''? You''re lying to me." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge laughed, but his laughter did not reach his eyes. Xi Jiu Er smirked: "Originally, he was lying to me, but said that he would protect me thoroughly and no one would be able to hurt me. Look, today, after I searched for him, he was bitten by a dog and insisted on eating the bone, I was puzzled, why did so many people have to ask me for it. I had no choice, in order to get the dog to loosen its jaws, I could only give him a bone."


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was startled, this girl actually called him a dog? He, the emperor, was accused of being a dog. How dare he be so outrageous? She was about to explode with anger. ''So she knows the purpose of my visit?'' He was really smart!


    "Let''s go, Prince Xian is still waiting for us outside." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge stood up and waited for Xi Jiu Er to move, and Xi Jiu Er very obediently followed him out. A luxurious carriage was parked in front of the door. It was much more dangerous than being robbed.


    "Your majesty, I dropped something. Let''s wait for it to be brought back before we leave." Xi Jiu Er did not wait for Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge to speak and quickly turned to go get the items. Not long later, an explosive sound rang out, frightening everyone as they cried out, "Protector, protector!"


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge flung aside the people beside him in anger, his face was extremely gloomy, he stared at the fire and sneered: "Ok, this trick again." Suddenly, he saw a fire person running out from the house. It was Xi Jiu Er''s voice and it carried a sense of fear.


    "Your Majesty ¡ª That''s ¡­"


    "Why are you blabbering so much? Hurry up and go on a rampage!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge roared, and the servants immediately went to find water, but where was the water in the courtyard? Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge saw that they were so anxious that their faces had turned green like ants on a hot pan. "Useless ¡­ "A bunch of trash ¡­"


    "AHH!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge became even more furious: "Why are you all standing there like that, otherwise, we will take your lives!" Looking at the fiery man''s grief, he said, "Jiu Er, just you wait, I''ll go and get water for you right now ¡­"

 C385

    "Ah ¨C it hurts ¨C it hurts ¨C" Xi Jiu Er screamed as she ran towards the backyard, her speed so fast that the palace people could not catch up, and one of them said: "Not good, she''s gone crazy."


    That''s right, he had been running around like a madman, but he had left them far behind in the blink of an eye. They were used to living like princes in the imperial palace. At this time, they were already panting and sweating profusely. Suddenly, someone joyously said, "There''s water here." When he looked again, he was already gone. The miserable wails he heard from afar had gradually weakened.


    Sigh, if he were to burn it and save his life, he would be extremely fortunate. In the future, he would also be a cripple. With a poor child in her womb! But thinking about it, their sympathy only lasted for a split-second. What have they not seen before when they came out of the palace? His sympathy had already been eaten by the dogs. They also knew that even if they managed to save the fire, it wouldn''t do any good, so they didn''t want to waste their efforts even if they had the strength to do so.


    "Aiyo, what are you guys still standing there for? Quickly go find someone." The Old Eunuch more or less knew about the situation, knew that Xi Jiu Er was extremely important to Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, furthermore, the Prince Xian truly liked to find a woman, and now that the girl had turned out like this, they could forget about finding a way out.


    "But... I reckon he''s already dead." one of them whispered. He was slapped hard by the old eunuch, "Go and find someone, otherwise, you''ll be dead meat."


    The old eunuch''s eyes were bloodshot and his white face was extremely terrifying. He frightened the palace maids so much that they slipped away like smoke to find someone. In the end, he was unable to find her. He only saw a burnt dress beside a small river. It was the woman''s clothes! Could it have been washed away by the river? The palace maids walked along the road for another half a day but found nothing. In the end, they impatiently and nervously returned to report their findings.


    "Trash, a bunch of trash!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge used all of his strength. Today, he only brought a personal bodyguard and a group of people to stand guard in the distance. He sent all of them out to look for him, but in the end, no one came. The guards were much faster than the palace maids, and by the time the palace maids returned, they had already been back for a long time.


    "Destroy them all for me, leave no one alive." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge stared at the servant, thinking that they had timidly missed the best time to save her, he immediately became furious.


    The court ladies turned pale as they kneeled on the ground and kowtowed. The Old Eunuch did not punish because he was his senior and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge needed his help. Thus, the five palace maids were dealt with by the guards and their corpses were cleaned up.


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge heard from the guard''s report that he was probably washed away by the river water to jump into the river to force the fire. Or perhaps ¡ª one was already on the verge of death. Otherwise, why would he be gone so quickly?


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had lost to the Madame and lost his soldiers, there was no one here, how was he going to account to the Prince Xian? With a dark expression, he thought that Xi Jiu Er had always been clever, maybe he was just teasing them. Some of the guards had gone down the river to search. A quarter of an hour later, the guard reported that the other end of the river was flowing into the sea.


    The sea is so big, how can we find it?


    "Any leads?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge did not give up and asked.


    "Yes ¡­" The guard handed over a corner of the undergarment that had been burnt into a deformed shape. If the undergarment was burnt to such a crisp, would this person still have any good points? Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge could only accept the reality before his eyes, but in his heart, he had a nagging feeling that Xi Jiu Er was still alive.


    "You guys send people to search secretly, don''t let Prince Xian find out." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge instructed for the rest of his life, then left in a heavy tone. He looked behind him deeply and instructed the carriage, "Let''s go." Then he secretly entered the palace... Someone from the palace reported that a servant named Dong Zhu had called Prince Xian back.


    "Did Prince Xian say anything when he woke up?" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge sat down and asked.


    The court lady replied, "I only said that I felt something was wrong."


    In that case, the Prince Xian must be suspicious. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge closed his eyes and instructed: "We will be bathing." The servant immediately ordered for them to prepare some soup baths, in the huge palace, other than Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s trusted aides, there was nothing else. As long as he closed his eyes and the fire person appeared in front of him, Xi Jiu Er''s screams would sound like a large hammer smashing into his heart, causing her to tremble from the pain.


    "Jiu Er ¡ª We did not do it on purpose. We really did not do it on purpose ¡­ I mean no harm... Why would there be a fire? "There''s something weird, there''s something weird!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge suddenly opened his eyes as suspicion arose in his heart. What candle flame would there be in the middle of the day? Xi Jiu Er was a cautious person, so how could he light it up so easily? Something was not right. Something was not right. He had only cared about sadness, but he had never thought about it!


    Maybe it was a trick that Xi Jiu Er had used to trick her. She had a lot of tricks up her sleeve, maybe she had learned it from somewhere. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s mind was active again, the more she thought about it, the more she was sure of her thoughts. Moreover, Xi Jiu Er had a servant by her side who had very high martial skills. If he did not see her, where did she go?


    He slowly closed his eyes. Everything was waiting for news from the guards he sent out! Furthermore, Prince Xian followed Dong Zhu back to his courtyard, he frowned as he felt that there was something fishy about the matter today. He was someone who was not even drunk, how could he get drunk so easily? Besides, he only saw the emperor''s personal old eunuch and didn''t see the emperor. He also said that the emperor had already rested when he was drunk. Logically speaking, the emperor should have gone to serve this old eunuch when he was drunk, so why would he defend himself?


    Taking a deep breath, Prince Xian was at a loss. When they returned to the courtyard, they immediately felt that something was wrong. The courtyard was completely silent as the servants and maids ran off somewhere. He could smell the scent of blood ¡­ His expression immediately changed.


    "Where is he?" Dong Zhu asked suspiciously, and quickly went to see Xi Jiu Er. She opened the door to find nothing, and asked: "Madame? Madame? "


    Prince Xian followed them to look around. There were a total of five maids and four servants. Adding Xi Jiu Er and Liu Shui, all eleven of them were gone! Prince Xian''s first guess was that Xi Jiu Er ran away? No, that''s not right, Xi Jiu Er''s previous attitude was not to run, and what was this bloody smell? Could it be that Feng Qing Cheng this fellow kidnapped Xi Jiu Er? Or had his dignified Prince Xian Courtyard been robbed?


    Otherwise, it wouldn''t make sense!


    "Your Highness, I haven''t seen the Madame, I haven''t seen anyone else!" Dong Zhu was unsettled: "My prince, has something happened? Servant feels that something is amiss."


    "I''ll send someone to look for it." Prince Xian rubbed her temple, this part of her body was hurting slightly, she wondered what kind of wine this was.


    "Bang!" Something smashed onto the ground beside his feet, causing Dong Zhu to take a step back. Prince Xian looked down and saw that he had been stopped. Shui Xian''s figure came out from the shadows: "When I came here, I saw that there was no one there, so I looked around. I met this guy who was sneakily looking for something.

 C386

    "Ugh ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng had been watching his every move closely, when he saw his face slightly move, a look of determination flashed past his eyes, and he instantly understood what he was doing. Breaking through his chin, with a few slaps, a black pill flew out from his mouth: "I''ll leave him to you."


    Shui Xian nodded, with a palm, she knocked him out and dragged him down to interrogate him.


    Prince Xian picked up the pill on the ground and smelled it carefully. His expression was gloomy, this was a medicine from the palace, the worst thing was that he could still recognize it, this was a medicine that only Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge could have. His bodyguards and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s bodyguards all ate different amounts of medicine! This kind of medicine was something that he and Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had concocted on their own. They would never easily show it to others to prevent others from revealing their identity when the time comes.


    Why would the emperor''s guards appear here? Sneaking around? Was he also looking for someone? Everything depended on what Shui Xian had gained from it. In the courtyard, the smell of blood still lingered ¡­ The wind blew it away with the wind. Xi Jiu Er ¡ª Jiu Er ¡ª It had to be something that she had experienced.


    "Bastard!" If I were to know about this, I will definitely not forgive him! " He had brought Xi Jiu Er back from so far away, and just like that, she disappeared. He felt like he was going crazy.


    A quarter of an hour later, Shui Xian returned with a darkened face, as she sat down in a huff. Dong Zhu did not know what she asked, nor did she say anything as she looked at her anxiously.


    "You can go. I''ll do my best. This guy has no intentions of moving ¡­" Shui Xian thought that maybe he was old, but how could a beauty''s trick not work? It was really strange. After teasing him for a long time, this person was truly interested ¡­


    "Ah - I say - I say - come on, come on..." The man''s voice was filled with passion. Prince Xian who had just stood up sat down slowly, moving his chin: "I''m calling you."


    Shui Xian then laughed charmingly: "I knew it, who can resist my charm? Of course, there are exceptions! " For example, the men who liked Xi Jiu Er were all blind and couldn''t see themselves!


    After a while, the sounds of men panting could faintly be heard, the woman had purposely moaned in a charming tone, even a fool would know what was happening inside, this Shui Xian was really pitiful, to be able to sacrifice herself for something like forcing palaces, it was not that big of a deal.


    "Slave, Servant is going to make the wake up wine for Your Highness." Dong Zhu''s face and ears flushed red, she quickly bowed and ran off.


    When Shui Xian returned, she did not look good, as if she did not know what to say, and was hesitant to speak. Prince Xian shouted with a dark face, "Speak!" He was already worried, why was Shui Xian so slow, she was trying to worry her to death.


    "This... The thing was, the emperor suddenly came to find Jiu Er and said something he didn''t know, but then Jiu Er said to turn around and grab something, and when she came out, her entire body was on fire. And then he didn''t even find it. This guard was sent by the Emperor to investigate in secret.


    "No wonder ¡­" No wonder he was so drunk today, it was really Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s fault. He took advantage of the fact that he was asleep to secretly take Jiu Er away. Could it be that he found out about the child in Jiu Er''s womb? Other than a few of his trusted aides, no one else knew about this secret.


    The sweet and sweet wine was now on Liu Xiang''s lips. It was very comfortable to drink, and gave off the illusion that it was wine but not wine. He knew that there was a type of wine that could make people speak the truth after drinking it, but it was not that strong. This wine was simply extremely intoxicating, but after drinking it, one would not die from it and would only become dazed and at a loss of what to do. If she tried to beat around the bush at this point in time, it would be impossible for him to do so.


    "Jiu Er... Are you dead? " Shui Xian asked.


    Prince Xian''s heart trembled, and he sneered: "Die? A heartless and heartless woman like her was a scourge. Haven''t they heard of it for a thousand years? Maybe it was just a trick. Everything in her room was still intact, there was no damage at all. If she had a fire on those drapes, wouldn''t it have at least been set ablaze? But no! I heard that the people have some skills, they can create a fake fire that won''t hurt people at all ¡­ Xi Jiu Er also likes strange things, so he probably used this method. "


    Shui Xian was stunned, and thought that this Xi Jiu Er really had a lot of methods. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was suddenly here to visit, and she was able to find a way to escape in such a short time, it was truly a whole new level of respect for her.


    "This little ingrate, he''s so black-hearted. Who knows, he might just run away and not see anyone!" The Prince Xian said angrily. Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge knew the secret of the child. If she did not fake her death, how could she protect the child? If she had anything to do with him, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge would find out her whereabouts eventually. The only way was to stop contacting her.


    "Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge, you unconscious ruler, just destroy my stage, I will go into the palace and kill him." Prince Xian was furious, if he did not say a word, he would suffocate to death. It was too late for Shui Xian to pull him back. The Prince Xian had already left.


    "Sigh ¡­ as expected, intelligent women do not even have a good ending!" This Xi Jiu Er''s fate must have been honed enough. Seeing the maid standing not far away, she smiled and said, "Get me something delicious. I''m starving to death."


    "Good ¡­" Servant will go right away. " Dong Zhu laughed bitterly. She didn''t even know if her master was dead or alive, she didn''t have the time to cook. She also thought that Shui Xian was a pitiful person, who sacrificed a lot to find out more news about the Miss, so he decided to cook for her.


    After quickly riding into the palace, Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge had already slept for a while. Only then did he wake up to see the Prince Xian aggressively pushing open the door while a young eunuch stood behind him with a bitter face: "Your majesty, your servant, your servant can''t stop you ¡­"


    "I understand. You may leave." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge said indifferently.


    "Your Majesty, what do you mean!?" You''re going to compensate me for taking away my wife that I finally managed to kidnap. " When the Prince Xian said that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge was speechless, he started to smash things on the ground again, "Do you know how much effort I put in to get her back? Before I could cover up my love for this ungrateful bastard, he was already taken away by you, so why don''t you come with me, Jiu Er! "


    The more the Prince Xian spoke, the angrier he became. Thinking that Xi Jiu Er would avoid him far away, the feelings that she had cultivated with great difficulty became difficult to retract, she was willing to die immediately. The more she smashed, the more it vented out her anger. Pointing at Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s nose, he cursed loudly, "Tell me, what do you want to do, what do you want to do?"


    Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge quietly watched as Prince Xian smashed everything and shouted to himself. He didn''t want to end up like this, how could he not see how serious Prince Xian was towards Xi Jiu Er? He snappily replied, "Who knows, maybe he''s not dead yet."


    "Maybe? What do you mean maybe? You want to die from the fire? " The Prince Xian roared unhappily, only then did Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge realize that his eyes were red, as though he had lost a treasure.


    "I know why the Emperor is looking for her. She is my wife. If you want to profit from it, why don''t you go for it yourself? Do you have to threaten a woman? If a woman can solve a problem, then why is there a perennial war? What does that woman look like when she gets involved? " The Prince Xian was no longer polite, "To think that you''re the Emperor. Your thoughts are all on women, you really make people look down on you."

 C387

    "Mu Qiu Shui!" Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge roared: "Impudent!"


    "So what if I''m presumptuous? She once saved your life! It is said that the grace of saving a life should be repaid by the gushing spring water. Prince Xian was sad. This Jiu Er thought he was a pitiful girl, if he was smart, he would have died countless of times.


    "The Emperor shouldn''t bother with my matters in the future, and shouldn''t even think about obtaining any benefits from Jiu Er!" With that, the Prince Xian left. The old eunuch by the side saw that Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge''s face was ashen and quickly laughed: "This Prince Xian is so angry, your majesty, you should also take it to heart."


    "I won''t argue with him." Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge knew that she was wrong. If Prince Xian wanted to vent her anger, she would do it, and she wouldn''t lose too much flesh. Besides, who would dare to say anything? See if he doesn''t kill him.


    "The Emperor is merciful." The eunuch laughed.


    The main camp was extremely busy today, and the army doctors were bringing along their young disciples to take care of Wei Guogong. Shi Chen Wen was exceptionally busy these few days, the main marshal''s internal organs had been severely injured by the enemy''s parasites, and he was still in a coma. As the general that Wei Guogong relied on the most, Shi Chen Wen entrusted all the power in his hands to him before passing out.


    "General, there is a strange man and woman outside the military camp."


    Shi Chen Wen, who was seated on the table and was immersed in reading the Thirty-Six Stratagems of the Army, heard the familiar voice of a servant coming from outside the tent. He replied coldly, "I won''t see her."


    "That man said he could save the country''s Duke, and implored the general to meet him once."


    "Oh? "Then please!"


    Shi Chen Wen slowly packed away the weapons on the table, then picked up the cup of tea, which had been emitting cold air for a long time, and lightly sipped on it. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the big tent, and saw the sun casting a shadow of its shadow on the cowhide curtain, he was slightly startled, as if he heard a familiar voice, and the teacup in his hand froze.


    "I told you before, I am your General Shi''s wife. Why don''t you believe me?"


    The soft female''s voice came out from outside the big tent. Shi Chen Wen suddenly smiled and felt a warmth in his heart.


    "How are you? Did this arm still hurt? Can your left hand get used to it? " The cowhide curtain was pushed aside, and a slender body instantly flashed in front of Shi Chen Wen''s desk. A pair of slender fingers tightly gripped Shi Chen Wen''s right arm, and his tone was entirely filled with worry and sadness.


    "It''s fine, I''ve already adapted." Shi Chen Wen consoled her with soft and gentle words. She lightly pulled her left hand out of the woman''s hand, and slowly held her back, which was slightly trembling because of her sobs.


    Yun Qing Ran knelt beside Shi Chen Wen and her tears kept rolling down her face. Shi Chen Wen quietly patted her back to comfort her and other than the sobbing sounds, there were only the soft sounds of Shi Chen Wen whispering in her ears.


    After a long while, Yun Qing Ran finally calmed down, and slightly shrugged his shoulders. She wiped her tears, took in a deep breath, and then barely put on a smile. Young Master Xuan Jiu immediately came over without stopping. "


    Shi Chen Wen extended his arm to hold Yun Qing Ran, and turned to look at the unfamiliar man standing below, "You are Ran''er''s good friend?"


    "I am Xuan Jiu. A few days ago, I met with the imperial city and Miss Yun. I was originally just passing by to rest at the imperial city, and according to Miss, the Duke of Guo and the general''s life was in danger due to the barbarian attack. As long as I have a slight understanding of the art of deviation, I will willingly accompany the Miss and give it a try in the army."


    The man''s voice was thick and powerful as he replied Shi Chen Wen. Unexpectedly, his voice was so loud that it could accommodate another person''s weak white colored clothes.


    "Oh? Is that so? "That''s good." The corners of Shi Chen Wen''s mouth trembled for a moment as he frowned. Right after he finished speaking, a mouthful of black and foul smelling blood shot out from the shackles of his teeth and onto the table.


    Yun Qing Ran was scared out of her wits by the scene in front of her. By the time she had reacted, Xuan Jiu had already gone up to check his pulse.


    "Nine ¡­" Ninth Gongzi, what happened to Chen Yin? Wasn''t he fine just now? How did this happen? "


    Yun Qing Ran fearfully and gently embraced the unconscious Shi Chen Wen in his arms. He turned his head to look at Xuan Jiu, who had a similar solemn expression, and asked a few questions in succession like a firecracker.


    "General, I''m afraid that the Gu worms in my body haven''t been completely removed, looking at the situation, there should still be one sleeping in my body, but it seems like it is about to come out of General Shi''s body."


    Xuan Jiu withdrew his right hand that was probing his pulse, and reached his hand back into Shi Chen Wen''s shirt which was inside his severed arm. Unknowingly, his thin inner garment was already soaked, it was sticky and wet on his body, and his firm and thick muscles gave off a warm feeling through the thin layer.


    "Hmm?" Shi Chen Wen''s eyes that were tightly shut immediately gave a painful reaction after hearing Xuan Jiu''s action. Sweat gradually gathered on his forehead, and dripped down his wheat colored skin one by one and wetted half of his sleeves.


    "Nine ¡­" Gongzi, be more gentle! "


    Water droplets slowly gathered in Yun Qing Ran''s eyes. She raised her hand and gently caressed Shi Chen Wen''s rough cheeks while trembling, and carefully wiped the cold sweat off her forehead. Perhaps the Gu worm in her body was really too strong.


    The people who were in a coma slowly started to breathe rapidly, so much so that they even opened their mouths to take deep breaths. It was as though a person who was about to drown in water was desperately struggling to store air in their lungs; even if they could delay their time to die, it would be incomparably important to them.


    "No, Qing Ran, put down the general and let him lie on the ground. I need to treat him immediately." Xuan Jiu quickly let the servants, who were also extremely anxious, support him, and carefully placed him on the ground.


    Xuan Jiu looked at this familiar face. The old man had met with such a disaster before, how could he watch without doing anything?


    The two of them flustered to the point that they had to pass the medicine to Shi Chen Wen. The two of them secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and got a servant to find two strong soldiers to carry Shi Chen Wen into the tent to have a good rest.


    "Why did the messenger say that Chen was sick and that we had come to see him and that he was fine and unconscious?"

 C388

    To reply Miss, the general is already deeply infected by the Gu, but I have no choice but to fear that the loss of the commander and general in the army will cause chaos in the army camp and that the enemy will seize the opportunity to attack Yongjiang. I can only force myself to stay ill for a few days without proper rest.


    The servant replied respectfully.


    Yun Qing Ran nodded, she continued to stay by the window and take care of his fiance, standing at the side, Xuan Jiu coldly spoke, "General, you will definitely wake up before setting sun, I wonder where State Duke is now?"


    "In the tent, the military doctor is taking care of him, does young master want him?"


    "Head there." The servant continued to stand in place respectfully, waiting for Yun Qing Ran''s permission. He thought that she had not spent much time with her general, and did not know that the lady was actually her future general Madame, and thus already knew of her identity, so she treated her as her other master. Now that Xuan Jiu wanted to head over to the Wei Guogong to treat him, he could naturally ask for her permission from her master.


    "Bring the Ninth Gongzi to the main tent of the center army."


    "Yes."


    Xuan Jiu nodded at her, then turned and followed the servant out of the tent.


    In the past, it was Shi Chen Wen who personally led the warriors to train with him. After leaving the Gu, he had not been able to rest properly for many days. His body could not take it anymore, so he gave this heavy responsibility to Xu Xi.


    This was the first time he had met his grandfather in a long time. At the same time, he was also worried about whether or not his grandfather''s body was severely eroded by the Gu.


    Xuan Jiu was able to adjust his state of mind outside the tent, and then indicated to the servants to pull the cowhide curtain.


    "Who are you? How can we break into the main camp? "


    The army doctor who was sitting in front of the bed and feeding the medicine to the Wei Guogong, seeing Xuan Jiu being brought in by the servants, suddenly scolded them angrily.


    "Who I am has nothing to do with you. Today, I''ve come to treat the Duke of Guo''s illness. Since you are useless, move aside."


    Xuan Jiu strode to the side of Wei Guogong''s bed. With a flick of his wide sleeves, the military doctor in front of the window sat down and extended his hand to treat the patient on the bed.


    The military doctor who had been brushed aside was furious. He looked at the man who had suddenly barged in and his heart was gloomy. Just as he was about to make his move, the other party''s cold voice sounded again, "I have a habit. I don''t like the presence of others when diagnosing and treating patients!"


    The attendants held onto the jumping military doctor and hastily bowed before leaving the base camp.


    As Xuan Jiu listened to the footsteps that were gradually getting further and further away, he let out a long breath and reached out his hand to treat the patient on the bed.


    Her emaciated body and the extremely haggard and special old patient caused Xuan Jiu''s heart to turn desolate. This elder that he respected the most was actually lying there unconscious, with a Gu still attached to him.


    Xuan Jiu''s finger tightly gripped onto his pulse, and the slow and powerless pulse clearly told the other party how serious the patient on the bed was. Xuan Jiu withdrew his gaze, and a sword light flashed across his eyes as he stood up only half an hour later.


    Xuan Jiu quickly dashed into the space, and only saw that the world within the space was ethereal and empty, and the space between heaven and earth was brimming with vitality. Xuan Jiu had intentionally built a thatched hut inside the space, and used a large area of space to grow all sorts of strange flowers and herbs.


    In front of the house was a square pond that had been artificially dug out. Inside the pond were all the rare and unique animals in the world, and the water in the pond was drawn from the mountain spring at the back of the thatched cottage. When the mountain spring water flowed past the thatched cottage, a water wheel had been specially set up to guide the water in case of need.


    This mountain spring water was the most important and precious existence in this space. This mountain spring water came from a deep mountain behind the thatched cottage, Xuan Jiu did not know where it came from, he only knew that it came from a crack in the middle of the mountain, the spring water was sweet and delicious, and most importantly, the mountain spring water had the miraculous effects of causing one''s bones to turn white.


    Because the weather in the space was always warm and beautiful, Xuan Jiu especially liked to put a bed outside the thatched cottage to dry in the sun.


    In the spatial space was a pure white, cute and heartfelt little thing, which was his uncle who had turned into a white cat and followed Xuan Jiu every step of the way.


    The moment Xuan Jiu stepped into the space, he was hit by the warmth of the sun in the air. After stretching slightly, he immediately headed for the thatched cottage. The spatial entrance was still quite a distance away from the thatched cottage.


    The cat and the man rushed through a clear stream and a winding path before finally reaching the thatched cottage. Xuan Jiu looked around and plucked an unusually large leaf from the purple bamboo forest behind the thatched cottage. With a few rolls, the leaf formed a triangular shape, and with another scoop of mountain spring water from the water wheel, he rushed out of the spatial space.


    Xuan Jiu quickly passed through the spatial barrier, carefully held the spring water in his hand all the way to the corner of Wei Guogong''s lips, and then used all his strength to pull out his hand to support''s head. Only then did he slightly put the spring water into his mouth.


    After several times, Xuan Jiu finally sent all the mountain spring water into Wei Guogong''s mouth. Originally, he planned to let the other party have a good rest, but just when he was about to pull out his arm and leave, a hoarse and aged voice suddenly sounded beside his ear, "Jiu Er? Is it Jiu Er? "


    Perhaps because the old man had been unconscious for too long and had just awoken and was still unable to clearly sense where he was, the person who he was most concerned about was subconsciously called out in his mind.


    Xuan Jiu''s action paused. Thinking that the old man had already woken up, and his cold and indifferent expression was replaced with pleasant surprise, Xuan Jiu bent over and approached the Wei Guogong, and said in a soft voice. "Grandfather, it''s me, I''m Jiu Er!"


    Wei Guogong heard a familiar voice, and slightly opened her eyes, taking a long time before she could clearly see the unfamiliar face in front of him, "Who are you? You are not my Jiu Er, who are you? "


    Just as Xuan Jiu was about to explain to him, he was interrupted by a long cough, "Grandfather, you and some water," Xuan Jiu stood up, lifted the kettle and poured him a cup of tea.


    Wei Guogong, who had been in a coma for several days, was almost dripping with water. Seeing the tea that was close to her lips, she did not care about anything else and gulped it all down in a few gulps.


    "Grandfather, I am Jiu Er!"

 C389

    Xuan Jiu set the cup aside and, without hesitation, tore off the mask on his face and the other human skin mask under the mask in front of his grandfather.


    "Jiu Er? It''s really you! " The delicate and pretty face under the mask finally confirmed that the strange man in front of her was indeed the granddaughter she hadn''t seen for a long time.


    Xi Jiu Er sat by her grandfather''s side and told the whole story of how she changed her appearance to Wei Guogong. Other than a few things that were difficult to talk about and something that she did not want to think about, she could hide it all.


    "Jiu Er, where''s the father of the child in your womb?"


    "Grandfather, there are some things that Jiu Er does not wish to bring up again. As for the child''s father who is in my womb, he is already dead."


    The grief that instantly flashed across Xi Jiu Er''s face made Wei Guogong stop asking questions and he could only be gently pulled into her embrace. But today, Jiu Er realized that her grandfather was no longer as mighty and strong as before, and her emaciated body made her heart ache uncontrollably.


    In the end, people must age and die, but Jiu Er only hoped that the heavens could slow down their pace, so that she would still have the chance to stay by her grandfather''s side.


    "Good boy, Jiu Er doesn''t cry." Wei Guogong was like hohee was when he was young. Whenever Jiu Er cried, she would always be hugged by her arms to comfort her, but today, the children of the past were already about to become mothers.


    "Grandfather, Jiu Er didn''t cry," Jiu Er laughed and pushed her grandfather''s embrace away, then turned her head and thought, suddenly thinking of something, the smile on her face was replaced with nervousness, "Grandfather, you originally learned the art of voodoo, how could you be so easily poisoned?"


    Hearing that, the Wei Guogong was startled, then slowly explained the reason to Xi Jiu Er.


    So it turned out that when Wei Guogong was young, his master loved to study Gu techniques in the Southern Wilderness and then used the Gu techniques passed down from her sect. When the two were combined, it could be said to be perfect.


    In order to prevent this unique skill from going extinct, his master had specially selected Wei Guogong and her senior brother, Yuan Wu, as disciples. Originally, he wanted to teach them all the techniques he had learned, but Wei Guogong was young and arrogant, disdaining such unorthodox methods, and resolutely refused to learn them. No matter how much his master tried to seduce him, it was useless. In the end, she could only give up.


    His master had not only taught him all the techniques he had learned, he had even bestowed him the Gu King s which could control the parasite poison. This was so much so that after he had graduated, he could be called an astronomical figure, a person who knew the geography of things, a person who knew the arts of parasites in the middle, and even a person with a profound understanding of yin and yang.


    So in the martial arts world, there was still one more, the "Gu God" who could control hundreds of birds and the "Yuan Wu" who could deal with hundreds of bugs. After taking in three disciples in a row, all of them were not easy to deal with.


    Her second disciple, Moon Goddess, her beauty was unparalleled in the world, but she had a weird quirk. As for what kind of quirk it was, it was probably only known to those who had died in her hands! The youngest disciple was a woman who looked to be about 1456 years old. Her name was Hook, and this girl''s hobby was to eat Gu. It was unknown whether her youth and eternal youth had some relation to this hobby.


    Amongst the three of them, Yuan Yu''s Gu technique was the most unpredictable, so the other two people also followed his lead


    "What does Grandfather mean?" After Xi Jiu Er finished listening, she faintly felt that this time, his grandfather being poisoned must have some sort of relationship with these few people.


    "I think the one who indirectly poisoned me this time is that so-called missing Yuan Yu, right?"


    "Indirect?"


    "Grandfather, I, a youth, may not have tried to cultivate in the art of the voodoo Gu, but I''ve been around my master for some time. If you want to poison me right under my nose, I can still detect it."


    Originally, he was too relaxed and vigilant of Yuan Yu, but now, he had gotten an opening.


    As for whether or not the other party did it intentionally, I don''t think there is a need to guess. And the girl that they coincidentally met on the Flower Lantern Festival that day, is most likely Yuan Yu''s junior sister, Moon Goddess. "


    The Wei Guogong then told Xi Jiu Er every single detail about the day Shi Chen Wen met the Courtesan Belle Beauty on the Flower Lantern Festival.


    Xi Jiu Er frowned. Just as she was about to think about the scheme behind this woman, Wei Guogong suddenly laughed, "Master definitely didn''t expect that after his transformation, his own little disciple would be killed by his disciple with a Gu King."


    "Grandfather, what do you mean? Jiu Er just gave her a pill, you know the medicine can kill people, so don''t worry. " Jiu Er anxiously pulled her grandfather''s arm, and nervously grabbed onto his palm.


    Wei Guogong felt the fear in Xi Jiu Er''s heart and smiled slightly, the traces of time on her face were even covered with a layer of vicissitudes of life, "Jiu Er, Grandfather knows that your medicine can kill and kill humans, but Grandfather''s medicine is a Gu King, there is only one pair in this world that was refined when Grandfather''s master was young, so the power of this Gu is extremely strong. Even if you gave Grandfather the medicine, you would only be able to temporarily hypnotize the Gu King that is hidden in my Dantian."


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er anxiously replied, "The General Shi''s alone Gu worm will be killed by the poison in his dantian tonight. Furthermore, the poison is also poison, so why can''t he do the same?"


    The Wei Guogong was still smiling as she replied: "There is only a pair of Gu King in this world, and the poison in his dantian is merely an ordinary Gu poison, but as you said, since the poison can be dispelled by the medicine, then my grandfather''s stomach isn''t filled with poison, it''s filled with a monster."


    "Demon?" Isn''t it a Gu? How could it be a Demon again? "


    "The Gu are only made from a few dozen insects that eat each other, while the Gu King are made from hundreds of insects that eat all sorts of beasts and birds. It is also refined from the spiritual energy of the moon when it is fully absorbed.


    Wei Guogong slowly walked towards Xi Jiu Er. There was no fear in his eyes, as if he was reminiscing about the interesting things that happened when she was young.


    "I don''t believe Jiu Er. Grandfather, this Gu King must have an answer. Can you tell me?"


    There was once when he was young, his master had unintentionally mentioned that if he wanted to cure the poison from this monster, he would need a cup of blood from the host''s body. Then, he would need a divine medicine that could cure a person''s bones and flesh.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head at the side, her solemn expression making the Wei Guogong pause for a moment, "Grandfather, don''t worry, even if we have to travel to the ends of the earth, I will definitely find the man who raised the demon. Not only will we need a cup of blood, I will also make her try the pain of her heart veins being devoured."


    "Grandfather, I know you are worried that he would harm Jiu Er, but don''t worry, Jiu Er will definitely have a way to deal with him, you rest up, it''s still early, is Jiu Er going to take a look inside the city?"

 C390

    Wei Guogong knew his granddaughter''s personality. Even if he had to stop him, she would try to find that person secretly. He could only sigh and allow the other party''s suggestion.


    Xi Jiu Er turned around and brought the human skin masks on the table back one by one. After greeting her grandfather for a while, she called for the servants who were waiting outside the big tent.


    The weather today was the same as the sunny days in the space. Xi Jiu Er lazily glanced at the sun that was also lazily hanging in the sky, this tightly closed and breathable mask, was specially made by her friends in the martial arts world. As for the reason why this mask was added on, it was because she was afraid that there would be some hidden spies in the army camp.


    Moreover, someone must have known what he was good at. It was just a precaution.


    Xi Jiu Er did not tell Yun Qing Ran about her grandfather''s matter.


    When Xi Jiu Er entered the army camp, she made her own personal maid, Liu Shui, find an inn to stay for the night. For the time being, in order to make her pay attention to the movements in the city, she told her from experience that the Dreamy Cloud City was not a peaceful place to stay.


    There were crowds of people in the Dreamy Cloud City, the bustling and bustling scene caused even Xi Jiu Er, the son of a high official, to be surprised. She did not expect that in such a small border city, the prosperity could be comparable to any wealthy city in the imperial court.


    This was the first time Xi Jiu Er had come to the Dreamy Cloud City. Before this, he had only let Liu Shui come to the city alone to look for inns, although she did not know which inn she stayed at, but according to her eating habits, he would definitely be the most lively in the Dreamy Cloud City, an inn with the most delicious food. As long as she could find out from some people which of the Dreamy Cloud City''s alleys was the most flourishing, which inn had the most delicious food, Liu Shui would most likely live in this alehouse.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the countless of stalls and shops on the street. She decided to find a rather affable looking stall owner and ask around. She stood on the spot and observed for a while, only to find out that the middle-aged woman sitting next to her on a makeup stall a few steps away seemed to fit her requirements.


    With a rare smile on his face, Xi Jiu Er took large strides to the front of the makeup stall. Before the other party could even greet him, he immediately asked: "Aunt, may I ask, which one of the Dreamy Cloud City is the most prosperous?"


    When the big aunt heard that she was here to inquire about directions, the smile on her face that was originally piled up immediately disappeared, as she chased Xi Jiu Er who was nearby away like a fly with the handkerchiefs in her hands, "Let''s go, let''s go. I''m not here for people to ask for directions, let''s go find someone else."


    Xi Jiu Er stuck his hot face to the cold bottom as the smile on his face suddenly dimmed. "Pa!" Xi Jiu Er took out a silver compass and threw it on the stall with a "pa" sound. Her stink in his face also caused the aunt to be slightly stunned, and only now did she think that she might have offended the God of Fortune, who had given her money for some reason.


    Please forgive this old woman. Uncle, you want to ask which part of Dreamy Cloud City is the most prosperous, and which part of the Dreamy Cloud City is the most prosperous? "That must be Jinsi Alley. That Jinsi Alley is famous here. Uncle, you don''t know ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her aunt''s flattering face and Luo Luo Luo''s blabbergasted look. She was even more agitated in her heart, "Stop it, can you just tell me how to leave?"


    The aunt quickly nodded and said, "Master, look. Go straight to the end of the alley and turn left. It''s very close. Do you want auntie to take you there?"


    Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to reply, she turned around and left without looking back. When she was far away, she heard the aunty shouting, "Elder, remember to come next time," he suddenly felt a cold chill all the way from her toes to her head.


    As he leisurely walked, the corners of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth slightly curved upwards, his face had a faint smile as he sized up the surrounding food. In fact, in his heart, he was quickly planning how to find the man called Yuan Yu and get the blood from his hands to aid the Wei Guogong in detoxifying the poison.


    When a large-scale plan was formed by you, Xi Jiu Er, the place he needed to find was already in front of him. The size of the Jinsi Lane wasn''t actually that big, and it also didn''t take up a lot of space, but even so, it still couldn''t stop the bustling and flourishing inside the alley, with only around five to six people walking side by side. However, the Jinsi Lane was very deep, and from afar, it looked very much like a long dragon.


    In a place like this, where delicacies gathered, Liu Shui wasn''t sure where to stroll and enjoy them. He would definitely not listen to his orders and obediently wait for him in the inn.


    Just as he was thinking about where he should go to find Liu Shui, Xi Jiu Er unintentionally caught a glimpse of a scarlet through the gaps of people. That color was extremely familiar, causing Xi Jiu Er to be stunned for a moment.


    "Liu Shui?" Xi Jiu Er squeezed through the crowd and came behind the lady in the crimson red dress, then carefully patted her shoulder.


    "Eh?" The woman turned her head around doubtfully, and saw Xi Jiu Er sticking out her tongue mischievously. Her originally cute face was covered with a layer of red clouds.


    The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth curled up slightly, and her expression became bleak, "What did I tell you?"


    Liu Shui saw that her Miss was truly angry and immediately squeezed through the crowd to the side and whispered into her ear, "Miss, there are spies from the one sob tribe in this city."


    "Oh?" Xi Jiu Er had already guessed that there would be a whisper from the Dreamy Cloud City, but she never thought that Liu Shui would actually notice it, and the expression on his face became colder and colder.


    "Today, after Servant entered the city, he stayed at the best inn in the city. Yun Kai then stopped, Servant was very bored, so he thought about going to the street to look for something to eat, and after leaving his room, after passing by Number One Heaven''s Room, I heard a voice coming from his room. The voice was not anything special, but the things they mentioned were very strange."


    Xi Jiu Er asked: "What''s special?"

 C391

    Liu Shui continued to move closer, "They seem to have mentioned something about the Gu King. Oh right, they even mentioned the name of the Prince Fu."


    Xi Jiu Er was surprised, her voice unconsciously doubled, "What?"


    Liu Shui immediately went up to cover his mouth, and looked around. Only when he saw that no one was attracted by her own Miss''s cry of surprise, did he let go of his grasp on Xi Jiu Er''s claws.


    "Miss. Hush, this is the main street. " Liu Shui''s voice came closer like a fly''s, but he was caught off guard by Xi Jiu Er''s push, and staggered a few steps back before he managed to stabilize his body. When she looked again, his Miss was already gone.


    Xi Jiu Er''s inner heart was tightly gripped by Liu Shui''s words and "Gu King". While she was running frantically, her eyes did not forget to look around until she stopped in front of an inn that was crowded with people.


    After carefully recognizing the words on the signboard, Yun Kai entered the inn. Although the inn was not particularly spacious, its layout was compact and its tools were fine. Although the sparrow was small, it had everything. This was roughly what he meant.


    Xi Jiu Er took advantage of the crowded situation to grope her way to the second floor, and then, she went straight to room Number One Heaven. Stealthily sticking to the door for a long time, she realised that there was no sound from inside, and then used her finger to touch the drool on the paper window.


    Xi Jiu Er heard the sound of footsteps from behind him. She turned around as if she was thinking of escaping, but she was pulled back by the voice, "Miss, wait for me."


    Without guessing, this girl who was panting heavily as she ran towards Xi Jiu Er''s side, was none other than her servant, Liu Shui.


    Xi Jiu Er''s cold sweat dripped down, looking at the girl in front of him who was gasping for breath with her hands on her knees, "Which room are we in?"


    Liu Shui pointed to a completely ordinary wooden door on the right, and continued to stand on the spot while panting heavily, "Liu Shui, you''ve gotten fatter again today, right?" When Xi Jiu Er turned around and brushed past her shoulder, her tone was filled with worry.


    Liu Shui let out a cry, "Miss, you can bully us just because you can''t eat too much, can you?"


    Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to reply. She walked through the long corridor and stopped in front of a wooden door. Her voice was cold and gentle, "Open the door." Hearing that, Liu Shui immediately rushed to her side, took out the key from her pocket and opened the door.


    "Have you eaten that mutton soup yet? I still have some broken silver in my bag, go buy some food! "


    Liu Shui''s flowers instantly bloomed all over the ground, upon hearing what was said, he immediately went to his bag to take out some silver, and happily jumped out of his room with the silver.


    In the past few days, Xi Jiu Er felt that her solitariness had become even more obvious, so she dressed in as wide and wide a manner as possible.


    All of these clothes are too big. If you want to hook up an enemy like Hua Hua Kui, like the one dressed in too much clothes, not to mention seeing the number one girl, even if you meet any other ordinary sisters, you would be despised if you don''t put on enough clothes. Not to mention that Xi Jiu Er was pregnant, with just a handsome face, without a good body, how would you be able to hook up a beauty like Hua Kui?


    Xi Jiu Er was a little agitated and discouraged, but although she was upset, she was also discouraged. According to her temperament, she would not give up until she reached the Yellow River. Even after searching for half a day, she still could not find a clothes that made her look handsome and handsome. She continued to persevere in front of the mirror, trying hard.


    "Miss."


    "Call me Young Master." In a moment of desperation, he did not correct Liu Shui''s question. Now that he heard call him Miss, he remembered to ask for a change of words.


    "Cough, cough, cough ¡­" Young master, young master, what are you doing? How can you take out all of your clothes and throw them around randomly? " Liu Shui licked his lips as he grabbed a candied flakes in one hand and looked at Xi Jiu Er with a puzzled expression on his face while holding a piece of black shirt in the other.


    "I''m going to look around the Gou Ward Wasteland," Xi Jiu Er said casually in front of the mirror.


    Liu Shui held onto half a candied fruit in his mouth, his eyes shining. "Miss, no, Young Noble, you want to go to the Gou Ward? How about you bring the Servant? Servant would also like to see the legendary enchanting beauties. "


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless. She turned her head and glared at her, "Do you think I, as the Young Master, am really going to walk around the seating area to find a beauty to accompany me? Young Master, I have something important to find, what do you think is in your little brain? "


    Liu Shui''s head was heavily poked by her own Miss, but he still laughed as if nothing had happened, "Young Master, can you bring my Servant to have a look!?" Liu Shui half pulled on her Miss''s sleeves and shook it with all his might. The last candied fruit in his mouth, as he puffed out his cheeks, vaguely spitting out a few words, "Miss ¡­ Young Master... "Bring me ¡­"


    Before he could spit out the word "go," the melted sugar of the candied fruits in his mouth flowed down the corner of his mouth.


    "Move aside. Can''t you finish your meal and then talk?" Xi Jiu Er pretended to be disdainful and slapped away the wolf claw that was dragging him. Liu Shui touched his own claws, and pouted his lips in grievance, he raised his sleeves and carelessly wiped it, then stared at Xi Jiu Er''s back with an aggrieved look in her eyes, and silently rolled to the corner of the wall to nibble on the candied fruits.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the mess of clothes on the bed and felt a headache coming on. She raised her arm and signaled Liu Shui behind him to come and help him choose.


    "Liu Shui?" Xi Jiu Er turned and looked at the empty room behind him and looked around. After confirming that she was the only one there, her head hurt even more.


    "Liu Shui?" Xi Jiu Er searched the entire room, even the blue and white porcelain bottle with the picture of a hundred sons playing inside was taken out and rummaged through once. All the large and small objects in the room were taken out by her, and upon seeing the mess in front of her, Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath, patted her butt, and rushed towards the big baffling door.


    "Liu Shui?" Xi Jiu Er anxiously closed the door, and saw a ball of something hiding behind the door. She didn''t even need to look to know who it was.


    Liu Shui licked the remaining candied fruits that he had already finished, and upon hearing what said, he turned his head and looked up at him, his eyes filled with puzzlement and puzzlement: "Young Noble, what''s wrong?"

 C392

    Xi Jiu Er was well aware of his servant''s character, he was crazy, but cute, just so silly that people would sometimes not be able to take it ¡­


    "Did you hear me call you just now?" Xi Jiu Er tried his best to sound emotionless.


    "Ah?" Miss is just called Servant? "


    "There''s only the two of us in this room. Didn''t you hear?"


    "Nope." Liu Shui had an innocent and harmless look on his face, making him speechless. He turned around and straightened his back, too lazy to bother with this broken female servant anymore.


    "Hey, Miss, what did you call me just now that required Liu Shui to do?"


    Liu Shui quickly ran over to Xi Jiu Er''s side and saw her own Miss pointing at the pile of clothes on the bed with a worried expression. Only then did he remember that her own Miss was going to find someone to come and find him.


    "Help me find that set of clothes so that the Miss would look like a jade tree that has no wind. You should also change into a man''s attire, and go meet the number one beauty with me in a while."


    Xi Jiu Er decisively threw the most troublesome problem to her naive and innocent servant girl, and ran over to the side to drink her tea. When Liu Shui heard that the Miss allowed him to go to the Gou Walled Wasteland, his heart jumped with joy.


    "Miss, this is it." Liu Shui took out a scarlet, golden-bordered shirt that was embroidered with a large amount of peony flowers and handed it over to Xi Jiu Er. This shirt was divided into two layers, the one inside had another story, and this shirt was specially made by Liu Shui for the pregnant Xi Jiu Er. The clothes were made from high grade Dreamy Cloud Silk, but Xi Jiu Er loathed the fact that the shirt was too revealing, and it did not suit her cold personality.


    Xi Jiu Er took the clothes and caressed it gently, "Hmm, the materials are not bad, but ¡­"


    Miss, I tailor this shirt for you. I studied the layer of this shirt for a long time before making a move, the clothes are for the sake of changing Miss''s appearance, to hide your figure, do you believe I will not make a move?


    Xi Jiu Er shook the clothes in her hands open, and looked at it. Other than the fact that the style was a little new, the color was more eye-catching, and the embroidery was a little more exquisite, as if it was no different from the clothes she usually wore, "Can these clothes really hide my figure?"


    Seeing that Xi Jiu Er obviously did not believe him, Liu Shui could not help but push Xi Jiu Er into the changing room angrily, "Young Noble, just try it and you will know."


    Seeing her angry look, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but find it funny. He turned around and went to change his clothes, no longer bothering with her.


    Liu Shui leaned behind the screen, since he had nothing better to do, he took out the cinnamon cake s that were tightly wrapped in kraft paper and carefully picked one up to put in into his mouth. The happiness of being stuffed with food made Liu Shui''s mood indescribably good.


    The happiness of a foodie was just as easy to satisfy.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly changed into a new set of clothes. Surprisingly, the clothes were lighter than light, "The texture of the clothes is not bad, they''re quite comfortable."


    Xi Jiu Er walked out from behind the screen, her head lowered as she adjusted her sleeves, "Miss, is the clothes especially comfortable to wear?" Liu Shui walked up to her family''s Miss and helped him tidy up his clothes.


    "It''s just that the color is a bit too gorgeous."


    , if you wear those light-colored clothes, you don''t look like you go to the brothels at all. You look like a bookworm going to find someone else to sing a poem.


    Liu Shui laughed and teased his own Miss. Upon hearing this, although it was a tease, Xi Jiu Er understood seventy percent of it.


    "You should also quickly change into a man''s outfit so you can go to the brothel."


    Xi Jiu Er brushed away the hand that was helping herself clean the jade pendant on her waist, and walked over to the copper mirror to clean it up, and did not forget to urge Liu Shui to move faster.


    A slightly fat figure vaguely appeared in the bronze mirror. The red robe was worn on her body and her waist was tightened as much as possible, yet it did not reveal her lower abdomen. In short, Liu Shui''s cut clothes showed Xi Jiu Er''s peerless beauty as much as possible.


    After a long while, Xi Jiu Er left the Yun Kai Inn with her silly little servant.


    The two of them acted as if they were strolling leisurely on the streets. The few young ladies who passed by the handsome husband that belonged to Xi Jiu Er all whispered to each other about this slightly plump but handsome young master for a while.


    Xi Jiu Er took out a broken fan from nowhere and stuck it in front of the young master.


    "Xuan Jiu, I was passing by the Dreamy Cloud City today and heard that the biggest hurdle in the city is the Courtesan Belle selection competition. I would like to ask Elder Sis, where is this hurdle? Can you give Teacher some pointers? "


    Xi Jiu Er bent her body and bowed, but continued to act amicably, the young wife and daughters of others all heard that she wanted to go to the Gou Ward, so they turned and left, leaving Xi Jiu Er baffled.


    "Young master, are you going to the Hibiscus Mutabilis as well?" A young master in white, who looked like a scholar passing by, overheard Xi Jiu Er asking about the way to Hibiscus Mutabilis, and immediately gave her pointers with good intentions.


    "That''s true. I wonder if this young master can give me some pointers?"


    "If you don''t dare to guide us, why don''t we go together? I am also going to the Hibiscus Mutabilis. "


    After Xi Jiu Er expressed her thanks, she followed the white-clothed gongzi towards the Hibiscus Mutabilis.


    Along the way, the young master in white continued to explain to Xi Jiu Er the beautiful affairs of the Hibiscus Mutabilis. Xi Jiu Er pretended to enjoy it, and in the corner of his eyes, he faintly saw an unknown liquid at the corner of the other party''s mouth.


    Liu Shui followed behind the two, and along the way, they heard the occasional conversation in front, and inwardly, he felt that his own Miss, the playboy''s appearance was extremely strange. Although he did not hear the content of the conversation between the two, he missed Xi Jiu Er''s weak shoulder and glanced at the white-clothed gongzi beside him.


    The three of them arrived in front of an exquisite building with all kinds of thoughts. The white-clothed young master was the first to rush through a pile of mediocre powder, picking out a woman who was wearing cool clothes, had half a catty of makeup on her average face, and looked very much like the legendary Hanged Ghost.


    "Little brother, this is my dear friend. Her name is Mo''er, look at her, don''t you think she''s particularly beautiful? Look at her snow-white skin." The young master in white, in front of the two of them, looked at her dirty words that were said to him from top to bottom.


    "Young Master, Young Master..." Let''s go in! " Liu Shui stood behind Xi Jiu Er and tugged her sleeves with all his might, urging her to quickly leave this disgusting man.

 C393

    "Brother, I will first take a look at the beauty of Hibiscus Mutabilis, and let me experience it for myself, then I will not disturb your good affairs."


    After Xi Jiu Er hurriedly thanked her, she brought the flushed Liu Shui into the Hibiscus Mutabilis.


    Right at the moment when they stepped into the Hibiscus Mutabilis''s doorstep, a pair of strange eyes were following them from behind.


    Most of the buildings here were constructed from pine and cypress, which had been in existence for a hundred years. The layout of the buildings was fine and ingenious, and there were quite a lot of hibiscus and other flowers planted in the buildings, there were even rows and rows of elegant bamboo plants planted at the corner of the corridor. However, these bamboo plants came from a foreign race, and were innately short, only growing to the height of eleven or twelve years old children.


    Xi Jiu Er''s scarlet red shirt attracted the attention of the brothel''s Madam from afar. Stepping into Hibiscus Mutabilis, she saw the pink-faced, ghost-like old procuress twisting her water snake waist that was as thick as a bucket, until she was standing right in front of her.


    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was sweating profusely. Why did the women of Hibiscus Mutabilis love to wrap half a catty of white powder on their face? Could it be that the flour they usually bought would not last long before being poured on their faces?


    The white faced old procuress looked at Xi Jiu Er who had a handsome and slightly fat face, as well as a set of good clothes and the extremely valuable White Jade Pendant that was carved with a phoenix.


    After she estimated Xi Jiu Er''s worth in her heart, after quickly giving a price that made her extremely satisfied, she immediately became overjoyed. Even the white powder on her face fell along with the fat on her body.


    "This young master looks unfamiliar? It''s the first time you have come back to our Hibiscus Mutabilis, right? "


    The old procuress was about to step forward and hold onto Xi Jiu Er''s arm affectionately, but was avoided by him without a sound. The people who were well-versed in the ways of the world immediately understood the other party''s disdain, and inwardly cursed him for being so pure even after coming to this courtyard. It was just like a whore trying to set up a memorial arch to play with.


    Initially, I was planning to leave today. However, I heard people from the same group said that today, Hibiscus Mutabilis would host a beauty competition, so I decided to stay and see what kind of beauty the Dreamy Cloud City''s beauty was!


    Xi Jiu Er opened the fan with a "pa" sound and shook it slowly. The cold smile on her lips made people feel strangely distant.


    Liu Shui looked at her Miss''s cold smile, and knew that she did not like the old procuress, he quickly stepped forward and said: "My young master just came here, he took a few hours and is already thirsty, you should get someone to clean up the room, and bring some pastry and tea."


    Liu Shui took out a silver ingot that was shining with a silver light and handed it over to the old procuress.


    The old procuress forced a smile on her face for the sake of the silver. She turned and led the two of them upstairs.


    The Courtesan Belle selection today was another grand occasion for the Dreamy Cloud City. Xi Jiu Er brought Liu Shui here a little earlier, and there were still colorful balls made of silk placed in the hallway. There were servants and servants everywhere cleaning the place, and the peonies and various flowers were blooming in the middle of the floor just at the right time, shining brilliantly, raising one''s spirits.


    Young master, this is the best room in the room, you guys could be considered to have come at the right time, this room was originally reserved by a wealthy merchant in the city, but since something happened in my family today, I had no choice but to withdraw.


    Xi Jiu Er pretended to be expressionless as she felt nauseous in her heart. She turned her head to look at Liu Shui, signalling him to quickly use the money to deal with this disgusting old procuress, so that he could have some peace and quiet.


    Liu Shui understood and quickly used silver to gag the old procuress, then quickly pushed her out of the private room. With a "pa" sound, the room finally quietened down.


    Xi Jiu Er was so disgusted by the old procuress''s seductive face that she grabbed the water bottle on the table and started to drink.


    "Miss, ah, no, Young Noble, take your time to drink, you can''t really be thirsty, right?"


    Liu Shui grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s hand that was tightly holding onto the pot handle, just as he was about to grab the cup of tea on the table to pour her a cup, allowing her to drink slowly, she waved her hand and rejected him.


    "That bawd was disgusting me just now. I drank water to calm myself down, not because I''m really thirsty."


    Hearing that, Liu Shui''s face bloomed into a brilliant smile, and he immediately took out a handkerchief to pass to Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er wiped off the water droplets around the corner of her mouth as her gaze was attracted by the arrangement of the private room.


    The room was not large, and there were only a table and a few chairs, as well as some inevitable decorations. A Hundred Treasure Pavilion was set up against the wall, and some ancient items that seemed real or fake were quietly placed on top of the shelves. Xi Jiu Er''s attention was placed on a wine bottle that seemed to be extremely famous in the previous dynasty.


    The wine bottle was special and strange, unlike the other utensils used by the nobles, which usually had some rare and unique beast engraved on them, or perhaps some rich and auspicious decorations. Instead, it was a kind of inscriptions that could not be distinguished between a beast or a flower.


    Xi Jiu Er who had her head lowered and was deep in thought, suddenly saw a pair of meaty hands reaching towards the bottle of wine. She suddenly realized, and with lightning speed, fiercely slapped the back of the white hand.


    In an instant, a crimson mark appeared on the back of that tender, fleshy hand. "Young master?"


    Tears quickly gathered in Liu Shui''s round eyes. He had originally wanted to see what Miss was thinking because he was curious about it, but before he could reach out his hand, he received a slap. He felt wronged.


    "Do you know that the things in this house cannot be moved? You are a girl from my Profound Palace, how can you be so ignorant? "


    Xi Jiu Er turned around, and looked at her servant girl who had pouted as she felt wronged, her expression exceptionally cold.


    "Is it Young Master?"


    "But what? You should immediately go back to the inn, and only then can we properly deal with you? "


    When Liu Shui saw his Miss coldly chasing him away, the grievances in his heart increased even further. His tears finally gathered their strength and started to fall down, he turned and ran out crying.

 C394

    Seeing that Liu Shui had finally left the room, Xi Jiu Er heaved a long sigh of relief. He was already pregnant, and if there really was anything abnormal in this room, he could still protect himself, but if he brought Liu Shui along, he would lose the confidence he was in the fourth floor.


    The wine bottle on the shelf did not seem to be an ordinary object.


    Xi Jiu Er was well aware of Liu Shui''s character, as long as he was sad, he would find a place to abuse his stomach, so she was not worried that she would not listen to her orders and stay in the Hibiscus Mutabilis.


    "Welcome, young masters, to our Hibiscus Mutabilis. All the beauties in the pavilion are looking forward to the precious vote in our hands.


    also approached the window. Not long after, all the well-dressed men from all over had gathered, Xi Jiu Er looked at the bustling scene downstairs and sneered in her heart.


    After waiting for such a long time, the contestants were finally about to come on stage.


    After entering the Hibiscus Mutabilis just now, Xi Jiu Er was not in a hurry to find someone. Although the Hibiscus Mutabilis seemed to be an ordinary person who did not need any compensation, one could faintly see the Five Elements Eight Trigrams, and the Weird Door Escape Armor inside the building''s exquisite and detailed layout.


    The so called Flower Bamboo Forest was only used to arrange a round of Shadow Shift. The strange items and formations below, if he wanted to drag Liu Shui out, he would have been the only one who could do it.


    Then let him meet the real owner of this building.


    Xi Jiu Er sat back down on the table, then called the servant over to a pot of hot tea, and drank a few cups by herself. sat back on the table, then called the attendant to a pot of hot tea, then poured and drank a few cups of tea,


    "Beauty, she is indeed a beauty." Halfway through the beauty contest downstairs, Xi Jiu Er saw a special woman.


    While the crowd was looking on, a girl slowly walked into the main hall. Her black hair was flowing down her back like a waterfall, her fair and white face was without makeup, but it was hard to hide her peerless beauty, her flawless skin made people want to be intimate with her, and there was a faint smile on her face, making them feel like they were looking at a flower through the fog. She wore a set of simply cut, dreamy silk clothing that wrapped around Sai Xue''s skin, and her feet that were tied with a red rope and tinkling chain.


    The appearance of the woman caused all the men present to be extremely excited. Among the commotion, there were even some who whistled frivolously at the beauties on the stage, attracting a group of people to follow their example.


    "Next, we will have the last year''s top courtesan, the Mystical Jade, present a song, ''Ten Ambush''.


    As soon as the bawd''s voice faded, the woman''s delicate hands began to play.


    "Beauty Xi, Gu Gouxi." Xi Jiu Er brought the teacup to her mouth, but didn''t drink it, and only kept sighing at the beauty''s beautiful face.


    "Wei Guogong''s precious daughter, can also be said to be a beauty, Gu Guoxi." The sound of curtains being drawn could be heard behind him. As her footsteps drew closer, a familiar voice sounded from behind him.


    "Brother, why are you so interested in coming here? Your beauty is not here! "


    Xi Jiu Er took a sip of your steaming hot tea, and a cold aura flashed from the corner of her mouth.


    "Little brother, no, it''s Miss Xi. Why would you be interested in disguising yourself as a man to admire this beauty?"


    Xi Jiu Er quickly got up and with a speed that could not be seen by human eyes, she quickly dodged the arrow that was shot from behind him.


    "What is it? Brother Xian can''t wait to get rid of this little brother? " Xi Jiu Er gently flicked away the dust on the corner of his shirt. His face no longer had a smile on it, but rather, ice shards could be seen in his eyes.


    "Miss Yun? Hehe, let''s not beat around the bush. You must be here in Hibiscus Mutabilis today for the Gu King in your grandfather''s dantian.


    The man who called himself "This King" was none other than the white-clothed gongzi who had brought Xi Jiu Er here earlier. However, at this time, the vulgar and vulgar expression on his face was no longer there.


    "You? Was it Yuan Yu? Or a spy? Calling yourself "This King" is definitely not someone from the Sky Dynasty. "


    Xi Jiu Er''s ice-cold tone carried a deep meaning, but the man did not answer. Instead, she sat down in front of the table, took out another cup, and poured herself a full cup of tea. She did not drink it, but only held it in her hands to carefully study the pattern on the cup.


    "I believe Wei Guogong must have told you about the wonders of the Gu, right?"


    Xi Jiu Er did not reply, she vigilantly hid in the corner, his hand extended behind her back, carefully taking out the recently bought flexible sword from her waist, holding it tightly in his hand.


    "The beauty of this Gu is that it can be used soundlessly when it''s being used, and the person who is being used will also die soundlessly. For example, Miss Xi, you?"


    The man saw that the other didn''t answer, so he went on with his own words.


    "Oh? You are so sure that I have been poisoned with the venom? " was sweating profusely as he held onto the sword hilt, but this man was able to tell his identity in one glance, and even used a disguise technique on his face, causing him to not be able to find the right place to put on the mask.


    Xi Jiu Er''s gaze swivelled around the man''s face. The coldness and doubt in her eyes did not make the man look back for even a moment, "Miss Xi, need not look at this duke''s face. "Hur hur, you won''t be able to find it!"


    The man''s tone was arrogant and conceited, the gaze that was staring at the cup body did not leave for an instant, as if he was completely confident that he could take Xi Jiu Er''s life, and he was even disdained to have any contact with this prey that was about to die.


    "Who exactly are you?" With regards to his life and death, the man''s identity made Xi Jiu Er more suspicious, but at the same time, he also felt that it was more dangerous.


    "This King? This King has quite a good relationship with your grandfather! " The man smirked.


    "You, you are Yuan Yu!"


    "That''s right!"


    Xi Jiu Er frowned, "You are only Yuan Wu''s disciple, what qualifications do you have to call yourself ''This King''?"


    When the man heard this, he did not get angry, but the sarcasm grew more obvious. "Why is This King not qualified? This King has already become the king of the one sob tribe as his father. This King naturally represents the prince, so what''s wrong with calling himself "This King"? "


    Xi Jiu Er did not know what his opponent was thinking. If his opponent was really as her grandfather had said, knowledgeable in astrology, proficient in Gu techniques, and proficient in Yin Yang and the Five Elements, if it was just the Gu poison he could resist, then if his opponent activated the Secret Door of the Secret Door of the Hibiscus Mutabilis, he would easily be able to leave the Hibiscus Mutabilis.


    "What exactly do you want?"

 C395

    "Haha!" The man raised his head and laughed out loud, he turned and stared coldly at Xi Jiu Er, and with a slight force of his hand, the cup that was previously a complete corpse turned into fine powder that fell to the ground in the next moment.


    "We want this Dreamy Cloud City, we want this world, you guys ¡­ Do you want to give it to me? "


    "Don''t even think about it!" Xi Jiu Er felt that she had asked a foolish question, and the gaze with which she met the man was filled with unprecedented anger.


    "Then, does This King want you?" The man stood up and walked towards Xi Jiu Er at a very slow pace.


    The man''s every step landed on Xi Jiu Er''s heart. In front of him was a rich wolf, and behind was a path of retreat. In Xi Jiu Er''s heart, there was a rare sliver of unease, and he watched as Xi Jiu Er pushed all of the iciness of the room towards him, step by step.


    "Forget it, This King has no interest in a broken flower being ruined."


    The man approached Xi Jiu Er and emitted a dangerous, beastly aura, causing Xi Jiu Er to suffocate for a moment. Just as he was about to act, he was caught off guard by the other party''s contemptuous expression, and the expression on his face instantly changed.


    There was sadness, there was anger, there was shame, there was hatred, all sorts of emotions gathered together. It made Xi Jiu Er feel as if she was being ripped off and thrown in front of everyone to discuss.


    He quickly pulled out the softness behind him and took advantage of the moment when the opponent was relaxing his guard to swing his sword. The man''s body seemed very tall and big, but he was abnormally agile. With a beautiful flash, he retreated several steps.


    "You want to die? This King will grant your wish! " The man quickly retracted his retreating posture and pulled out a few inch long sword from his sleeve. With a shake of his sleeve, the other half of the sword that was hidden behind the other half was pulled out and a strangely shaped long sword appeared in his hand.


    Xi Jiu Er raised his sword and blocked his opponent''s fierce slash. Even though she managed to successfully dodge the attack, she could do nothing about the man''s strong inner force, the sword qi had broken through his sword and threw Xi Jiu Er to the side.


    Xi Jiu Er supported herself with one hand on the table, and barely dodged the attack with the other. Seeing that the other party''s strength was indeed higher than his, and that he was pregnant, she had to be extra careful.


    "This King does not want to lower himself to a woman like you, not to mention that you have been poisoned by a poison, sooner or later, you will have to die. Today, this King shall be extremely merciful, and I will let you two, grandfather and grandson, die together, alright?"


    No matter how ugly the other party''s words were, Xi Jiu Er could not beat him. This was a fact, if he was going to slap himself into submission, he could only drag the child in his womb with him and go to the underworld.


    Xi Jiu Er stared fixedly at the man who sat back down and toasted his own cup. Hate filled his eyes, but his endurance was inferior to others and he had too many concerns, so he could only turn around and leave.


    In the private room.


    "Senior Brother, why did you let her leave so easily?"


    A beautiful figure hid in the shadows with an anxious voice.


    "This was my master''s last wish. At that time, it was the only order we made when we committed suicide. How could we not follow it?" The man''s back was to the door, his back was straight, and his eyes were like torches as he carefully caressed the cup in his hand.


    "Master said to spare Wei Guogong''s life, didn''t you still give him the Gu King? "You are putting on an act today!"


    The girl looked at him angrily, while the man coldly smiled without making a sound.


    Hibiscus Mutabilis was abuzz, and all of them were attracted by the beauties on the stage, not noticing Xi Jiu Er''s figure which was in a hurry at all.


    As he stepped through the gates of Hibiscus Mutabilis, the streets were filled with people walking around. It was the first time the lights shone on the street, and today was the golden age of the men of Dreamy Cloud City. Women and their family members mostly came out to stroll the night market, so at this time, women and children could be seen running around everywhere.


    Xi Jiu Er travelled through the crowd alone, and was suddenly wrapped up by loneliness. All of the past that had been deliberately thrown away surfaced once again, all of the fear and anger just now had turned into sadness from the past.


    The people he thought he would be with forever and loved deeply had left him just like that. The people who were most important to him right now were one severely injured in bed, and the other was in his stomach, not fully formed yet.


    In this small borderline city where danger lurked all around, he almost let this child accompany him into the sea of fire. Luckily, the heavens pitied him and allowed that arrogant man to think that he was poisoned with the Gu poison before he let him go.


    Actually when Xi Jiu Er stepped into the private room? However, she was worried that she was too worried, so she didn''t make a sound. It was only when she saw the bottle with the Mandala Flower engraved on it that she realized that she wasn''t being suspicious at all.


    The pot of tea had actually been poured into his inner garment, but he wanted to hide it from others.


    The past was not easy to bear thinking back. Xi Jiu Er quickly sorted out her emotions, and once again focused all of her attention on refining the blood for her grandfather.


    He had unknowingly rushed back to the inn, but when the waiter saw the Young Noble who suddenly came out of the building in the afternoon, he was deeply impressed by the arrogant red shirt, so he immediately smiled and greeted Xi Jiu Er who was hesitating at the side of the street.


    "Are the guests returning to the inn?" The waiter''s cheerful voice made Xi Jiu Er feel at a loss. It was only a moment later did he remember that he was about to return to the tavern, but he had forgotten about breaking the Gu along the way.


    "Yes," Xi Jiu Er''s clear and cold voice did not cause the waiter to feel the slightest bit of discomfort, but the other party still warmly invited her into the inn.


    "Liu Shui." Xi Jiu Er was brought back to her room by the waiter and received a silver statuette. She was extremely happy in her heart and her eyes were filled with smiles.


    Xi Jiu Er felt that not many people would be satisfied with such a simple matter anymore. She really liked this waiter, so the silver plate she gave out was also very heavy.


    Xi Jiu Er called out to Liu Shui outside the door, and after a long while, a soft sound came from inside, and after a while, the door opened with a creak, and a small head peeked out.


    "Miss, you''re back?"


    Liu Shui smacked his lips full of grease. When he looked at her own Miss, he immediately went forward to help her in.


    Xi Jiu Er smelled the greasy smell in the house, and it made her feel nauseous. She immediately pushed Liu Shui away and ran outside.


    Liu Shui worriedly ran out to see Xi Jiu Er throwing up at the corner of the corridor.


    "Miss, what''s wrong with you?" Liu Shui wiped off the grease around her mouth with one hand and was about to go forward to help her up when he smelled an even stronger stench than the previous one and continued to turn around to vomit.

 C396

    "Stay away from me." Xi Jiu Er continued to vomit. Liu Shui leaned on his body, the greasy smell rushed to his nose and made him feel disgusted, his hands that were supporting on the railing felt soft, and he had to free a hand to keep her away from him.


    "Oh", Liu Shui suddenly remembered that his own Miss was having a bad time, and immediately ran far away, but suddenly remembered that there were still half a roast duck left in the room, and turned to run back into the room.


    Xi Jiu Er felt as if her stomach was toppling over, but was unable to spit anything at all. It took a lot of effort for her legs to support the weight of her upper body, and after bending over to vomit for a long time, she almost used up all her strength. Her hands and feet were sore and weak, so she could only sit down slowly on the spot.


    That night, Xi Jiu Er fell into an insomnia, her mind was completely preoccupied with the problem of how to remove the parasite. After tossing and turning until the latter half of the night, he finally started to feel a little sleepy and was called out by Liu Shui before she had even slept for a few hours.


    "Young Master, quickly get up, there''s a letter from the military". Xi Jiu Er slowly woke up with two black eye circles under her ghostly wails and wolf howls. Only after hazily opening her eyes for a while did she retract her consciousness.


    "What''s wrong?" Xi Jiu Er rubbed her dizziness from not sleeping well. She shook off Liu Shui''s devil claws with one hand and her throat filled with cold air.


    "Young master, there''s a message from the military. The Gu King in the Duke of Guo''s stomach seems to be waking up soon. I''ll let you go quickly."


    In one breath, Liu Shui told everything to Xi Jiu Er. Only then did he work hard to swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then found the clothes on the screen to put on top of Xi Jiu Er''s bed.


    "Miss, quickly get up, Servant will help you change," Liu Shui helped her up slowly, then quickly changed her clothes. He went out to bring a basin of warm water with him, burning the clean kernels in it.


    After cleaning everything up, Xi Jiu Er remembered that she still had his mask on. After finding it in front of the mirror, she covered it up with her hands and feet in a flurry, trying to suppress the fear in her heart when she saw the figure in the mirror. She smirked and left the room with large strides.


    "What is the condition of the king''s body now?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s face was filled with uncontrollable worry. Before she even stepped into the tent, her voice had already traveled through the crowd and into the ears of the Military Physician.


    "Teacher, the Gu King in the National Elder''s Dantian seems to have awakened." Ever since the Military Doctor last saw Xi Jiu Er leave, Wei Guogong''s complexion recovered a lot. Since she knew that Xi Jiu Er had called him to take her pulse, he started to admire this young doctor a lot.


    "All of you, leave. I don''t like diagnosis when there are too many people."


    All the generals in the tent, including Shi Chen Wen, were startled, as though they never thought that someone would order them so arrogantly. Some people stood out to make trouble, but saw Shi Chen Wen taking the lead and walking out of the tent, so they followed him.


    Yun Qing Ran tilted her head and met her gaze.


    "Grandfather, grandfather?" Xi Jiu Er approached the bedside and leaned over to call out to the Wei Guogong in a soft voice. Seeing that the person in a coma had no reaction at all, the terror in his heart increased yet again.


    Xi Jiu Er carefully fed the water in her hand into his mouth. This time, she sat on the bed for a long time, and did not see the person on the bed wake up.


    Only after not seeing her for a few days, the person on the bed had a face full of wind and frost, and Fleeting Time had carved each and every piece of time onto his face mercilessly. Xi Jiu Er bent over to carefully examine this face, no longer having the elegance and handsomeness of her childhood, over the years, she had never seriously sized up the man in front of him before.


    The thick, white beard on both sides of his face drooped down without any signs of life. The poison qi that had corroded his internal organs could be seen faintly on the thin skin of Wei Guogong.


    "Young Master, the military doctor wishes to seek an audience." Liu Shui''s soft voice came out from outside the tent.


    "Please." Xi Jiu Er''s face was blank as she tried her best to retract the emotion from her eyes and put it to the deepest part of her heart.


    His steps hastened outside the tent. "Sir, can you dispel the country duke''s Gu?" The Military Doctor followed Liu Shui in, his tone anxious.


    Xi Jiu Er''s back was facing the two of them, and her voice was as cold as ice, filled with a cold aura, "Of course you can, but I haven''t gotten the most important medicine yet, so I still need to temporarily take care of the Duke of Guo, and there''s a bottle of medicine on the table for you. If the Gu in the Duke of Guo''s body wakes up again, then I''ll use water to hypnotize it, and wait for me to bring the antidote back."


    After Xi Jiu Er gave some instructions, she hurriedly left the camp with Liu Shui.


    The two of them walked on the busy street. The weather was still as bright as spring, and vitality could be seen everywhere.


    With the warm sunlight shining on top of her head, Xi Jiu Er felt a bone eroding coldness slowly spread from her feet to her four limbs. Today, her grandfather had accidentally used a parasite poison frequently, catching her unprepared.


    He had originally thought that using the spring water would allow the Gu King in her dantian to continue sleeping for at least ten more days, but he never thought that after a mere day, it would relapse and immediately wake up. Moreover, it had the tendency to awaken immediately, if he did not immediately suppress it, then the effects of the spring water would become less and less obvious.


    If it was as my grandfather had said, Gu King would no longer be just a simple Gu, then after the Gu King breaks free, would it be a threat to the lives of the entire army?


    The unease in Xi Jiu Er''s heart became stronger and stronger, and she started to stagger. "Miss, slow down.


    Xi Jiu Er casually nodded her head, and did not take her words to heart.


    After the two of them rushed back to the tavern, Xi Jiu Er locked herself in her room. She did not allow anyone to disturb him, so Liu Shui felt that the unsightly panic on the part of the Miss must have something to do with the fact that the poison in her body had not been detoxified for a long time.


    Liu Shui tactfully gave the room to Xi Jiu Er, while he, Bai Qi, wandered around the room for a while and observed the situation in the Dreamy Cloud City. Of course, the most important thing was to find some delicious food to pacify himself.


    After Xi Jiu Er''s breakfast, she sent Liu Shui out of the house. She opened her bag and took out a book on poisons that she had unintentionally obtained a few days ago.


    This poison manual belonged to a old beggar. A few days ago, Xi Jiu Er had confined herself in her room and did not manage to come up with anything good to praise and clap her hands.


    The little guy inside bared his fangs and brandished his claws as he accused her of dereliction of duty as a mother. She hadn''t eaten anything for an entire day.


    It was rare for Xi Jiu Er to move her feet down the stairs, but when she passed room number 1, he sneakily went near the door to eavesdrop on the activity inside, only to be pulled over by the waiter who was cleaning the house.


    "Master, what are you doing?" A confused voice suddenly came from behind, causing Xi Jiu Er, who was focused and listening, to be surprised for a moment.


    The waiter saw that he had scared Xi Jiu Er, so he immediately bowed and bowed, "This servant did not do it on purpose, I have scared you, Young Noble, please forgive me."


    Xi Jiu Er stabilized her mind and impatiently waved her hand, she could not be bothered to respond to him, she turned and walked down the stairs, leaving the innocent looking waiter hesitating on the spot.


    "I beg Young Master to reward me with a stutter." When Xi Jiu Er stepped out of the inn''s entrance, she was blocked by a shabby looking old beggar.


    With a face full of filth, old beggar limped in front of Xi Jiu Er and suddenly kneeled in front of him. Xi Jiu Er was stunned for a moment when she saw this unfathomable situation before she finally understood that the other party was begging him.

 C397

    "Old man, how are you doing?" Xi Jiu Er looked at the elder who was around the same age as his grandfather, and his heart filled with sympathy.


    Xi Jiu Er quickly helped the old man up, then called for the waiter at the inn. He took out some silver and gave it to him as a reward, then told him to prepare some food for the old man.


    "Young master, don''t leave yet." old beggar turned and pulled on Xi Jiu Er''s sleeves, his eyes filled with darkness.


    Xi Jiu Er subconsciously stopped, and looked at the pair of pitch black hands dragging him with a blank look in his eyes. His eyes looked up and she saw the abnormal expression in the eyes of the old beggar.


    "Young Master, would you like to accompany me in eating?" The old beggar held onto Xi Jiu Er''s sleeve tightly, not allowing him to refuse for even a moment.


    The young man supporting the waiter saw that the old beggar did not know how to be grateful, but instead offered such an unreasonable excuse. As a bystander, he also felt dissatisfied.


    "You old man, the young master gave you food. It''s fine if you don''t feel grateful, but you still make such a powerless request."


    The waiter reprimanded old beggar, which attracted Xi Jiu Er''s dissatisfaction, "What are you saying, does your family not have any elderly people?" Xi Jiu Er glared at him angrily, turned around and took the old man''s arm from his hand, then personally brought old beggar into the tavern.


    Yun Kai Inn was the most famous inn in the Dreamy Cloud City with a radius of a hundred li. It was not because his inn was different from others, but because the kitchen of this inn had a famous master.


    Xi Jiu Er had originally wanted to go to a rice brew stall on the street and ask for a bowl of rice brew Rice Ball to eat. Now that she really couldn''t escape, he could only casually order a bowl of rice brew.


    After that, he specially ordered a bowl of hot porridge and some other foods that were easy to chew and digest for the elderly man.


    Xi Jiu Er sat at the side of the table. The old beggar beside him did not seem to be as hungry as he looked.


    old beggar slowly picked up a piece of smoked meat, put down his chopsticks, and used his hands to carefully tear small pieces of it into his mouth and chewed them slowly. With the delicious food beside him, he couldn''t help but want to drink a few mouthfuls of wine to complement the taste in his mouth.


    old beggar drank a mouthful of meat in one gulp, and with an unperturbed expression, he poured for himself as he ate. He completely threw Xi Jiu Er, who was at the side, out of the window.


    Xi Jiu Er was not annoyed, as she sat at the side and looked at old beggar carefully, her expression full of suspicion and vigilance. At this time, any person who suddenly appeared beside her would cause her to unconsciously be on high alert, and when she saw the pitiful look on old beggar''s face outside the tavern, she couldn''t help but think of her grandfather who was still in a coma.


    But now, everything that was happening in front of her eyes was telling her that this old beggar might not be as weak as she looked at him.


    How many beggars could have such demeanor? If this continued, then this person was either a friend or an enemy.


    Xi Jiu Er secretly reached behind him. There was her only life-saving weapon, a soft sword that was as soft as a water snake and as sharp as a dagger.


    old beggar ate all of the dishes on the table, and then reached out and scooped up the leftovers from Xi Jiu Er''s bowl, bringing it to his mouth as he nagged at him, "The young people nowadays don''t even like this food, do you know how much fertilizer is needed to grow an acre of land, and how long do you need to work before you can see the sprout?!"


    While Xi Jiu Er was on guard, she did not finish her sentence. Seeing the old beggar who was still slowly drinking and eating, she immediately used her actions to show her the terrifying sight a beggar would have when he was eating.


    Before Xi Jiu Er could swallow a mouthful of water, she saw old beggar, who was lowering his head and digging for his food, spew out a mouthful of tea on the ground.


    Hearing that, old beggar raised his head, fiercely glared at her, and quickly continued to bury his head in tears.


    Xi Jiu Er was completely confused by the other party''s stare. She had not despised the other party''s disgusting act, but the other party had.


    Xi Jiu Er''s head was covered with black lines, as she stood petrified in place.


    After letting out a long burp, he reached out to push away the plate and cup on the table, and then picked up his own sleeve that was stained with mud. He wiped off the water on the table and ignored his wet sleeve, reaching into his bosom to take out a kraft paper bag.


    Although it was called kraft paper, it was actually just that the color was similar to kraft paper. Xi Jiu Er moved closer to take a closer look, and realised that this thing was even softer than kraft paper.


    old beggar carefully opened the paper bag and took out a book from inside. Not knowing where he left the book''s cover, all that was left was a thumb-thick, dilapidated volume.


    "Here, here you go", old beggar handed the book he was holding over to Xi Jiu Er with a reluctant tone.


    "This is?" Xi Jiu Er continued to be at a loss. She did not know what the old beggar, her friends and enemies were trying to do, but the harmless look on the other party''s face caused her to subconsciously believe that this person was not a bad person.


    When old beggar heard Xi Jiu Er''s question, his face revealed a complacent look, "Young Noble, have you ever heard of the ''Records of the Nine Regions''?"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded in acknowledgement, "Of course I have."


    "Then, this book once mentioned that there was once a Poison Saint in the martial arts world, known as Mu Rong. Do you know that?"


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t want to know what the other party''s intentions were for this bunch of matters that had nothing to do with him. She replied respectfully, "Of course I know, but according to this book, although Mu Rong loves poisons, he has never recklessly harmed any innocent people. Most of them are people who teach what they learned to local doctors so that when someone is poisoned, they can be treated in time."


    The old man expressed his agreement after hearing the book, and a smug look surfaced on his face as he continued: "This book represents Mu Rong''s lifetime of achievements, she only wrote it because she thought that there would be a successor who would be able to extend the profoundness of this book, but now, this dao feels that Young Master, no, or perhaps Miss can become accustomed to it."


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, this man had already figured out that she was a girl, and was even referring to herself as "The Way of the Underworld". Forget about all that, just Mu Rong was already an ancient person a thousand years ago, and the¡¶ Mu Yin Poison Secret¡· that she wrote had been lost a hundred years ago, had now mysteriously appeared in front of her eyes.


    Weird and unfathomable, Xi Jiu Er was stunned.


    old beggar was satisfied with her surprise, his voice also became more clear, "If you don''t believe me, then memorize the contents of this book, and if you have time to find another thing or two, then it would not be excessive to experiment for a while."

 C398

    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, although she still did not know the identity of this Daoist man who disguised himself as a beggar, but just by looking at how this man handed over the hundred year old mysterious book to him, he could tell that this man was not his enemy.


    "Take this book. I know that you are a person who has gone through a lot of hardships, but I also know that you are cold and distant, and I will not make any mistakes in this book. I will give this book to you, and let this poor man finally fulfill her promise to her. Did you find her such a talented disciple?"


    old beggar stroked his half-white beard, and leisurely played around with it. Like a firecracker, he spat a few times, flicked his sleeves, and left.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the Taoist who had disappeared from his sight, and the look of shock disappeared from his face. In his mind, there was only this unique book that he exchanged for a meal, as well as the relationship between the old Taoist and Mu Rong. Only then did he refer to the "her", could he be referring to the Poison Saint Ruler that had been gone for many years? If so, could that Daoist man have a thousand years of longevity? How was that different from a deity?


    "Old man", Xi Jiu Er finally cleared her mind, got up and ran out, rushing out of the tavern door, only seeing the strange faces on the street, not seeing the old Daoist at all.


    Xi Jiu Er had caught the waiter just now, and carefully asked him if he saw that shabby looking old beggar. After finding out that the other party definitely had not seen him again, he was even more sure in his heart that he got lucky today, and actually met a deity that could only be met by luck and not sought.


    For the next seven days, Xi Jiu Er stayed in her room to study the mysterious book that fell from the sky.


    Today, Liu Shui strolled around the streets for another day, and bought a portion of all the delicacies in Dreamy Cloud City and stuffed it into his stomach. Seeing that the sun was about to set, he jumped back into the tavern with cheerful footsteps.


    Pushing open the door, Liu Shui saw his own Miss sitting in front of the window, his head bowed and writing quickly.


    In the past few days, aside from eating time, he spent most of his time on chewing the contents of the book.


    How could a lonely little gongzi stretch his body quickly if he did not eat three meals properly? Liu Shui believed himself to be the most important person by her side, and as his right-hand man, Liu Shui had no choice but to watch her eat breakfast in the morning before leaving her room to leave behind a quiet environment to read in. When it was time for lunch, he hurriedly rushed back to accompany her to eat lunch.


    After receiving the ultimate skill to lose weight from this, Liu Shui was especially attentive to her Miss''s three meals. It was unknown if the three meals had appeared on time, and they would even appear right in front of Xi Jiu Er''s bed during midnight snack time.


    After a few days, Xi Jiu Er finally had a perfect plan. She believed herself to have ninety percent confidence in being able to use Yuan Yu''s blood to remove the parasite.


    Since the other party possessed exceptional talent and was arrogant and conceited, why not just make the best of it?


    Today, Xi Jiu Er was in a particularly good mood, and the cold smile on her lips was slightly dyed with warmth.


    Xi Jiu Er gave Liu Shui a few taels of silver and sent her to find something to eat.


    "Greetings, Mr. Xuan", when the guards outside the living quarters saw Xi Jiu Er, they all had some admiration for this handsome and mysterious young master who had pulled the Wei Guogong back to the brink of life and death several times.


    Xi Jiu Er had been in and out of the army camp frequently during this period of time. She made a familiar face in front of all the soldiers and obtained Shi Chen Wen''s special permission to follow him in and out of the military camp.


    "Mn." Xi Jiu Er lightly nodded, passed by the two young soldiers and walked into the camp.


    The soldiers walking past her all looked at her with sparkling eyes before they respectfully greeted her, "Greetings, Mister Xuan."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, not changing the coldness on her face, she walked alone with a familiar face to the main camp.


    In the past few days, although Xi Jiu Er had mostly been cooped up in her room studying the poison spectrum, the matters within the army had still caught her attention. In the middle of it all, when Wei Guogong woke up, she immediately saw Xi Jiu Er, who had been waiting for a long time.


    Ever since that day, Wei Guogong had not woken up. The patient on the bed was breathing evenly, and his face was slightly flushed. The previous aura of the Voodoo Gu that had filled his body was all concentrated in his dantian.


    All the poisonous gas in the beast''s dantian would stay there for three to four days, and the Gu King would wake up and then devour its owner before leaving the dantian.


    The situation before her was already such that she could not continue to look left and right. If she did not begin to implement the plan, her grandfather would at most last three or four days of life, and once the three or four days passed, even if Wei Guogong was worried about his life, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the army would also be burnt.


    Xi Jiu Er exhorted the Military Doctor once again, and then passed the Holy Medicinal Herbs she brought with him to him, then turned and left the camp.


    Xi Jiu Er rushed back to the inn and immediately changed into the red robe from last time. This time, she directly took off the mask on her face and took off the other one.


    Since the other party knew of his true identity, there was no need for him to continue hiding it. In this life-and-death game, why would he be afraid of such a shamelessness?


    Looking at that picturesque and elegant face in the mirror, Xi Jiu Er felt a moment of absent-mindedness. It was as if she could once again see that peerless man whispering in her ear.


    The most painful thing in the world was to be entangled in reality and memory, lingering on, yet unable to look back.


    After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Xi Jiu Er finally struggled out of her memories. She inadvertently glanced at the woman in the mirror and saw that her face was actually covered in water.


    The uncontrollable emotions caused the memories in the depths of Xi Jiu Er''s mind to suddenly surge open, flooding towards her like a flood.


    Until the lanterns were lit, the door creaked open as someone pushed it open from the outside. The person who was expected to enter walked in happily, "Miss, what are you doing?"


    Liu Shui doubtfully stood behind Xi Jiu Er, he stared at the blurry mirror, unable to see the emotions of the person in the mirror, but he was actually attracted attention by her flaunting red peony clothes.


    In the middle of the night, his own Miss, who was dressed in a scarlet red shirt, was sitting in front of a mirror without saying a word.


    Liu Shui thought this wouldn''t be a big deal, but the half string of mutton skewers he was holding fell onto the ground with a "pa" sound.


    "Liu Shui, I''m going out soon. Stay in the tavern and don''t go anywhere, and don''t follow me either," Xi Jiu Er said with a long sigh, her voice turning cold.

    Because of the half-dead mutton skewer, Liu Shui was unable to recover, but after hearing the news of him being grounded, he immediately fell to the ground and couldn''t even sit still.


    Xi Jiu Er got up and left the dressing table with his back facing her, her lonely expression immediately concealed.


    "Tomorrow, I will bring you to the Emperor of Yue to eat crystal shrimp dumplings." After saying that, Xi Jiu Er left the room without looking back.


    After Liu Shui heard this, he immediately became a happy foodie. He obediently prepared to wash up and sleep, when suddenly he saw something familiar on the dressing table.


    When he walked closer, he realized that it was her Miss''s mask. He thought that it would be inconvenient for her to wear this mask when she was out on a business and also changed out of her other mask, so he hastily forgot to tidy it up. As a sincere and hardworking servant, Liu Shui skillfully put the mask into a special made box in your bag.


    Xi Jiu Er walked in front of the Hibiscus Mutabilis with familiarity. Just as she was about to enter, she was stopped by the old procuress who flashed out from the building.


    It was unknown if it was because the old procuress had been waiting here respectfully for a long time, but she saw that Xi Jiu Er''s eyes did not contain the slightest hint of strangeness.


    "Why did Mom stop him?" Xi Jiu Er pretended to be confused.


    "Young master, my master invited you. Please come with me." The old procuress did not put on her usual airs and went straight to the point.


    Seeing that, Xi Jiu Er guessed the reason, and did not pretend, nodding and following her in.


    The old procuress led Xi Jiu Er out from the side door of the hall, which was specially made for the servant girl to accompany her, she did not notice this side door when Xi Jiu Er came previously, but she knew it was a convenient place to leave customers.


    She did not expect to see such a sight when she stepped through the side door. The garden was filled with flowers, and all sorts of expensive and rare flowers that should not be blooming at this time were rushing to open up. Even the winter sandalwood plum was just about to open.


    Xi Jiu Er followed the old procuress all the way through the spring garden and across a deep courtyard. They followed a clear stream and arrived in front of a bamboo house.


    The bamboo house was built independently in a bamboo forest, and one could faintly see a hint of red within the green.


    Xi Jiu Er was slightly shocked, she did not expect that in a place that was not even a square inch, there would be a hidden unimaginable layout.


    "Young master, please head to the second floor. Master is waiting."


    The old procuress''s voice was even colder than Xi Jiu Er''s, so cold that it could even be said to be contained within the ice and snow.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, she turned and walked into the bamboo forest. The old procuress stopped for a moment, then turned and left your bamboo forest.


    Xi Jiu Er was certain, if the opponent did not die, then it would be his own death, and even if the opponent was an unfathomable expert, he would still have a seventy percent chance of making the opponent obediently offer up their blood for his grandfather to dispel the parasite.


    After passing through the lush and verdant forest, Xi Jiu Er walked towards the two story house that was built with bamboo.


    The small building was built with high quality and extremely tough bamboo. It was quiet and elegant, not out of the ordinary. There was a pool of water in front of the building, and in the water, there were a few high quality brocade carp swimming around leisurely.


    Xi Jiu Er stepped foot on the bamboo building, and a burst of refreshing fragrance floated beside him.


    A flash of red flashed through the bamboo house. Xi Jiu Er did not go forward to stop him but pretended that she did not see it and continued to walk leisurely with light footsteps.


    "To think that Miss Xi was able to escape such a calamity. This really makes me suspicious."


    Xi Jiu Er parted the curtain and directly entered the first room. Before she even saw the person, she heard the low and hoarse male voice.


    The chill on Xi Jiu Er''s mouth formed a curve, she was not in a hurry to answer as she sat down in front of the man, "Boss Yuan is really interested in having such a beautiful scenery built here."


    Half of the man''s face was covered by the mask, he lowered his head and picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and continued: I wonder why Miss Xi who managed to survive came to my tiger cave again?


    Xi Jiu Er reached out and picked up the teapot, half supporting herself with the lid of it, she poured herself a cup and accidentally brushed by the lip of the teapot with her fingernails.


    The man curiously looked at Xi Jiu Er in front of him. Towards this woman, who dared to run here while running here risking her life, he would naturally be more than vigilant.


    "Boss Yuan, since you''re opening the door to do business, why did you stir up such a ruckus?" Xi Jiu Er took a light sip of the tea, and then started to play with the teacup in her hand.


    He slammed the teacup onto the table and was about to leave when a voice from his subconscious told him that this woman did not come with good intentions. Although he was not afraid of her, he did not need to bother with such a small and insignificant woman. She was just an ant, and strangling her to death was nothing more than blowing away dust, while this woman was not worth dirtying his hands.


    Xi Jiu Er acted as if nothing had happened and continued to play with the cup, and the words that came out of her mouth caused the man to instantly become furious.


    "Boss Yuan, it''s best not to leave. Just listen to this little girl."


    "Oh? I wonder what the Miss would like to say? " The man stopped and turned around.


    "Boss Yuan, have you heard of Mu Rong''s name?"


    "Of course I''ve heard of it."


    "Then the original owner should naturally know of that person''s unpredictable ultimate skill?"


    "Oh?"


    "How is it compared to the original owner?"


    "Over eighty percent, of course."


    Upon hearing this, the coldness at the corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth became even more obvious, "If I were to say that Boss Yuan had been hit by Mu Rong''s unique skill, that is, a bone corroding injury, would you believe me?"


    The man sneered, and replied with endless sarcasm: "So Miss Xi has come to me to frighten me? "Humph!"


    Xi Jiu Er declined to comment and continued: "If you don''t believe me, then Boss Yuan should press the ShenQue Acupuncture Point to see if there is any huge pain from the bone corroding."


    There was no sound from behind him for a moment, Xi Jiu Er nodded his head in satisfaction and spat the tea in his mouth into the cup.


    A gust of cold wind rushed straight at Xi Jiu Er, but stopped right at the last second, "How in the world did you poison this king?"


    Xi Jiu Er turned around, and extended a scarlet red fingernail in front of his eyes. "Here? "So this is it?"


    The man clutched at his abdomen and kneeled on the ground with a twisted expression. His lips asked for more words, "Nails?"


    Xi Jiu Er was very satisfied with her first finished product being so successful, her mood became a little better. As the victor who held the upper hand, she stood up and looked down at the man below, a haze appearing in her eyes.


    "That''s right, this little girl is just using a different path to do as you wish. Didn''t you just use the General Shi as an opportunity to let the bright moon drop the Gu into the wine jug, and then let your junior sister mix in the army to spread rumors and deceive people? Your real goal was to find the wooden vines at the back of the mountain and mix them with my grandfather''s and General Shi''s food. Because the Wooden Fruit Vines and the spice leaves are so similar, the monitored attendants mistook it for normal spices, and the Wooden Fruit Vine is also a favorite food of the Gu King and the Gu Zi, during that period of time, General Shi stayed by my grandfather''s side almost all day long. You two have interacted too much with it, and then, you intentionally lured the Gu King into my grandfather''s body, causing both of them to be infected by the poison, while the smallest dead kitchen boy is nothing more than a puppet controlled by the Gu. "

 C400

    Xi Jiu Er slowly spoke out the truth that she and Shi Chen Wen had discovered together over the past few days. Every word of her was like a sharp knife slicing the man''s skin with all of her might.


    Pulling out a shining dagger from his boots, Xi Jiu Er played with it in his hand for a bit before squatting down in front of the man, "Boss Yuan, my apologies, I want to lend you a bowl of hot blood to my grandfather to remove the parasite. Endure it, once I collect this bowl of blood, it will definitely help you cure the poison."


    Xi Jiu Er did not wait for him to agree, the dagger that was as hard as steel went over to the man''s wrist and lightly slashed, a fishy smell along with a scarlet liquid followed the blade''s body.


    The man bit his lips tightly. The intense pain in his abdomen was accompanied by a deep, deep cut on his arm, which tore his heart with difficulty. Slowly, the man''s breathing became hurried, and the anger in his eyes, which was difficult to sense, was mixed with a trace of fear, as he slowly shut his eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er turned a blind eye and thought that she was actually torturing a chicken and duck. When she was young, every time her family came to the ancestral worship grounds, she would grab a proud and independent rooster and wipe its neck with a knife. However, she didn''t need to use too much strength.


    And now, this evil man was the chicken in his hands. Although he didn''t want to kill him, taking some blood to remove the Gu for his grandfather was a matter of course.


    Only after the cup was dyed a fiery red color by the blood did Xi Jiu Er rip off a large piece of clothing from the man''s body. With a disgusted expression, she wiped the dagger in her hand on the broken shard a few times, barely feeling clean before putting it back into her boots.


    When he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, Xi Jiu Er thought for a moment, then turned back, unwillingly took out a white porcelain bottle, poured out a white pill from inside, which he stuffed into the mouth of the unconscious man, maybe because he accidentally dipped in saliva, Xi Jiu Er rubbed on the man''s clothes a few times before leaving.


    Surprisingly, when Xi Jiu Er came out, the whole way was smooth sailing for him. She guessed that the old procuress had no time to take care of the business in the pavilion, so she did not come out to stop him.


    Xi Jiu Er hurriedly rushed back to the army camp, and immediately placed the blood in her chest out on the table., who was standing at the side, wanted to ask what exactly happened, but was stopped in her tracks by Xi Jiu Er.


    Yun Qing Ran, who had rushed over in a hurry, obediently stood at the side. Watching Xi Jiu Er take out another white porcelain bottle from her bosom, taking out a few pills and putting them in the blood, a moment later, she took out a crystal clear white jade bottle and poured out a clear spring water from within. She slowly stirred the three things, and only after a while did she walk to the bedside with the things in her cup.


    Yun Qing Ran went over, with a nervous expression on her face. Xi Jiu Er leaned against the bed, with a cup in one hand and the other hand preparing to feed the medicine to the Wei Guogong.


    Yun Qing Ran saw that her actions were a bit difficult, so she immediately went forward to help support Wei Guogong to lean on her shoulder. Xi Jiu Er switched seats with her, then knelt in front of her bed and carefully helped his grandfather feed his medicine.


    After the two of them were done with their work, their foreheads were drenched with water. Carefully arranging Wei Guogong properly, the two quietly walked to the side of the table.


    "Jiu Er, why haven''t you disguised yourself?"


    When he rushed to the army camp, he discovered that he wasn''t wearing a mask, so he could only sneak in. Fortunately, he happened to bump into Yun Qing Ran who had rushed over to feed the Wei Guogong medicine, causing him to be able to escape the calamity.


    "Then how are you going to get out?"


    "I''ll depend on you then," Xi Jiu Er said as she pulled down a piece of her sleeves to cover her face and nodded, indicating Yun Qing Ran to go out while she followed behind him.


    The two of them walked out of the tent one after the other, and when the servants outside saw that Xi Jiu Er was dressed in scarlet clothes, and that she was still covered from head to toe, they had some enmity towards the man who had appeared out of nowhere, but seeing Yun Qing Ran leading the way, they could only bear with it.


    "This is Mr. Xuan Jiu, I was in too much of a hurry to enter just now, so I wasn''t able to go through the door."


    Yun Qing Ran explained to the guards at the gate that Xi Jiu Er had suddenly appeared.


    The two of them looked at Xi Jiu Er who was behind Yun Qing Ran, and nodded in understanding.


    Yun Qing Ran nodded, she turned and allowed Xi Jiu Er to leave, then suddenly thought of something, and immediately went forward to pull her.


    "Come with me for a few steps. I have something important to tell you."


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look at the serious Yun Qing Ran, and nodded suspiciously.


    The two of them walked out of the camp side by side, and even took a few steps to circle around. Just as Yun Qing Ran was about to speak, she was pulled a few steps back by Xi Jiu Er.


    "Go ahead."


    "Jiu Er, I need to talk to you about something, don''t be in such a hurry when I''m done."


    Hearing her words, Xi Jiu Er vaguely felt that it was not a good thing.


    "According to our spies in the enemy camp, this war seems to be related to that person. We originally wanted to steal the secret letters from both sides, but we were almost discovered several times, so we had no choice but to give up."


    As expected, it was not a good thing. Xi Jiu Er''s expression was ice-cold, and not a single hint of a smile could be seen on her face.


    "I already have a plan for this. Don''t act without thinking." After throwing that down, Xi Jiu Er left without even turning her head back.


    Yun Qing Ran watched as she disappeared from her sight before turning around to return to the camp with a shake of her head.


    Xi Jiu Er thought about the relationship between that person and this war.


    He didn''t know what was going on, so he decided to steal the secret letter and read it straight away.


    He raised his head and saw that the sky was getting late, so he sneaked into a secluded place and let Qiu Qiu out.


    "Qiu Qiu, go to the enemy camp in one sob tribe tonight and steal the secret letter between the commander and that person."


    The snow white Qiu Qiu agilely extended out his front claws and made a gesture, then turned and ran away.


    Xi Jiu Er watched as Qiu Qiu disappeared into the night, then turned and left with a solemn expression.


    Xi Jiu Er, who had been sleepless all night, heard a wave of soft, nagging noises. She quickly got up, but suddenly met with a furry, meaty object.


    Xi Jiu Er peeled the meaty thing off her face and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Qiu Qiu who was sent by him to steal the secret letter.


    Qiu Qiu kept twisting and turning in her hands, his furry body especially warm. He hugged it to his chest and used it as a furnace.

 C401

    She never thought that the man would be so vicious. Not only did he collude with the one sob tribe and instigate this war, he also bribed the ministers in the imperial court to specially propose his grandfather as the commander in chief to wage war. She never thought that the man was so vicious, not only did he collude with the one sob tribe to initiate this war, he even bribed some of the ministers in the imperial court to specially propose his grandfather as the commander of the army.


    Even though there was no signature in the secret letter, the handwriting was so obvious. Who else could it be other than that person?


    Some people would use all of their strength to love him, but in the end, they were just holding a hedgehog in their arms, their bodies covered with injuries. As if seeing them for the first time, Xi Jiu Er could only wish to be strangers to him, and if they meet again in the future, they would definitely avenge her death. No matter what, those who hurt my family members, they would definitely not let him get away easily, even if that person was the person she loved deeply.


    The cool breeze sneaked into the room and startled the flickering candle flames on your candlestick. The cool air that met her eyes gently brushed away the tears on her face. The resentment in her eyes.


    These few days, the Daxing''s army had been exceptionally happy.


    Xi Jiu Er had long rushed to the army camp with Shi Chen Wen''s subordinates, leaving Liu Shui behind in the tavern.


    "Duke," Xi Jiu Er said as she opened the big tent, her voice rippling with a trace of pleasant surprise. She indeed did not expect her grandfather to wake up so quickly, and this was faster than she had expected by half a year, and because there were other people in the big tent, she could only continue to hide her true identity under her skin and call him "Duke of Guo".


    Wei Guogong leaned her back against the pillow and leaned against the bed. A few generals gathered around her were discussing something at the end of the bed, upon hearing Xi Jiu Er''s voice, they all stopped their discussions and turned to look at her.


    Xi Jiu Er bowed slightly and bowed to everyone, "I did not know that the generals were discussing about military matters here, so I hastily went forward to disturb everyone."


    The Wei Guogong turned her head to look at Xi Jiu Er''s respectful and respectful appearance, and felt that it was extremely funny. The corners of her mouth curled as she laughed and the beautiful beard on her lips trembled happily, "Mister Xuan, please don''t do that kind of thing, hurry up and come to this old man."


    Everyone saw that the young man got along well with the Wei Guogong, and agreed that there was nothing wrong, and then followed Shi Chen Wen out of the big tent.


    Xi Jiu Er pretended to be distant and approached the bed. She lowered her eyebrows and stood in place, waiting for the people behind him to leave.


    "Jiu Er, quickly let Grandfather have a look, it has been hard on you these few days, for his disappointing body, Qing Ran had to tell Grandfather about everything that has happened."


    Seeing that everyone had left, Wei Guogong patted on the empty bed beside him, Xi Jiu Er turned her head and glanced at the empty tent, and walked over to the bed in a few steps, and sat down.


    "Grandfather, are you feeling better?" After Xi Jiu Er sat down, he nervously grabbed her grandfather''s hands and studied him.


    Wei Guogong looked at her nervous appearance and laughed heartily, "Don''t worry, Grandfather''s body can still be tossed around, it all depends on you. Otherwise, will Grandfather be able to survive this ordeal?"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her laughing maternal grandfather, as if her injuries were really not that serious anymore. Her expression was still serious as she reached out to grab the other party''s wrist, and used all ten fingers to feel her meridians.


    The evil energy of the insect poison in his stomach disappeared, and he finally put down the huge rock, "Grandfather, you must pay more attention to your food and drink in the future, and never let such a thing happen again. Do you still have a partner?"


    Wei Guogong''s laugh was still as clear as ever, "I got it, my little Jiu Er really wants to be a mother. She''s being so meticulous."


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her grandfather coquettishly, and then buried herself in his chest, "Grandfather, did you know that when your grandson found out about the poison in your body, I couldn''t wait to get my wings up and rush to the battlefield? Your grandson doesn''t dare to imagine how it would be if I came a little later!"


    Xi Jiu Er leaned into her grandfather''s embrace as she cried. Suddenly, she heard a soft sigh that could not be asked, and then, a warm feeling spread from her back.


    Wei Guogong used her rough hands to comfort the person in her arms, with a little helplessness, "Jiu Er is about to become a member of mother, and she''s still crying in front of Grandfather. In the future, great-grandson will not be like your mother, who likes to cry!"


    When Xi Jiu Er heard this, she burst out laughing, and crawled out of Grandfather''s embrace. Half a tear fell into the corner of his eyes, and her smile slowly spread into the depths of his eyes, "Grandfather, if you return victoriously this time, you should report this to His Majesty and request for the release of your armor to be returned to Tian.


    Wei Guogong let out a long sigh from the bottom of her heart. She knew that this war was only because His Majesty the Emperor wanted to remove the thorn in his side, and half-heartedly agreed to the recommendation of those ill-intentioned ministers.


    Furthermore, this battle was not only going to be used by the Daxing to suppress the rebel army. All the forces there were fighting in the dark, and they were looking forward to the huge benefits the war would bring them.


    The emperor would definitely get the biggest share of the spoils.


    Since he didn''t want to worry his little granddaughter who was in labor too much, he pretended that nothing had happened and continued, "After this battle, my grandfather went to ask His Majesty to take his leave, to carry my great-grandson home!" Wei Guogong caressed her granddaughter''s silky long hair and looked at her lovingly.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, the happiness in her eyes could not be described with words, but she could finally leave peacefully, and bring the person she loved the most.


    The noon sun had already snuck into the window, secretly melting the warmth from the tent into his body bit by bit.


    Because the Wei Guogong had been infected with the parasite for many days and her body had not completely recovered yet, she had intentionally kept Xi Jiu Er by his side as Xuan Jiu. He knew very well that with his granddaughter''s abilities, she could lend him a hand.


    Xi Jiu Er had originally wanted to follow her into the army camp as well, but she resolutely rejected him. Even though the presence of spies in the Dreamy Cloud City had already become obvious by now.


    Xi Jiu Er had originally wanted to borrow her grandfather''s strength to destroy Hibiscus Mutabilis in one fell swoop, but she didn''t expect Liu Shui to find out that the Hibiscus Mutabilis wasn''t one of Yuan Yu''s forces.


    When Xi Jiu Er wanted to continue investigating, she unexpectedly encountered the obstruction of the Dreamy Cloud City''s magistrate court, and had no choice but to interrupt it in the end.

 C402

    When Xi Jiu Er once visited the Hibiscus Mutabilis at night, she sneaked onto the rooftop to listen for news and accidentally broke a tile, causing everyone in the house to realize. Although they were lucky enough to escape, they didn''t dare to touch the Hibiscus Mutabilis in the slightest.


    That night, the news that was overheard by the people in the room proved that one of the officials had betrayed and sided with the man. Several people were discussing some secret matters, and Xi Jiu Er did not hear any of their conversation, but from their occasional exclamations and arguments, she vaguely knew that one of them was the person in charge of Dreamy Cloud City.


    After a while, they neatly called out a name. Due to the few of them being too cautious, Xi Jiu Er did not hear what the others had said, and through the small cracks, she could vaguely see a touch of yellow clothes, in a blink of an eye.


    When she was about to pick up the pieces of limestone, she unconsciously exerted too much force on her subordinates. Although it wasn''t loud, it was enough to let everyone in the room know of her existence.


    "Who is it?" A clear and straightforward man''s voice came out first, quickly rushing out of the door, Xi Jiu Er was startled for a moment, after retracting his thoughts, he immediately used a movement technique and ran towards the brightly lit roof.


    Xi Jiu Er had always liked this kind of movement technique since shesheas young, but she didn''t really like it when it was used in front of everyone. A few days ago, when she was bored, he suddenly became interested and carefully protected her stomach.


    However, he didn''t find the time to fully utilize the Qing Gong tonight.


    In the courtyard, the man rushed out of the room and quickly flew to the roof. He looked around every nook and cranny, only to find a tile that had been hollowed out at the center. He didn''t find any other traces.


    The man leaped up from the roof and stood firmly on his feet before hurriedly running out of the room. The window frame revealed the flickering flame of a candle, which imprinted a handsome figure on the window paper.


    He only heard the man kneel down towards the figure in reverence, and the emotionless and dull voice drift out of the room. In a hazy voice, a lazy voice sounded out, "Don''t worry, you will get up for now, this battle will definitely be the triumphant return of the one sob tribe."


    The candle flame grew longer and longer the two of them, gradually turning them into a faint yellow circle of light.


    Xi Jiu Er carried her small backpack and shuttled back and forth on top of the roof for a long time. She gradually lost some of her stamina and panted heavily as she squatted on top of a tall building, leaned against a piece of glazed roof and panted a large mouthful of air. Only after she had recovered enough did she get up and looked around in all four directions did after confirming that she had successfully escaped, and then exhaled a long breath of air as she sat on her butt on the roof of the house.


    Dreamy Cloud City was a place with an extremely beautiful scenery. As the saying goes, beautiful mountains and beautiful water are beautiful, but humans are! If they went out with Yuan Yu and the people from the Hibiscus Mutabilis, it would probably be considered a beautiful place. Xi Jiu Er was a little afraid of heights.


    Out of curiosity, she took a look at the endless flow of pedestrians and the resplendent night market. Her little heart immediately thumped in her chest, and Xi Jiu Er withdrew the posture of leaning forward in fear, while stroking her little heart and shouting, "Fortunately, I didn''t go downstairs when I was running just now, otherwise, I probably wouldn''t have been so scared that I would have fallen down and broken my bones or something like that."


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that she had let down the little fellow in her stomach, and actually brought the little fellow out to do such a dangerous thing. Fear filled up her heart, "Baby, mother almost caused you to fall into danger today, it''s mother that was inconsiderate, baby don''t be angry at mother."


    The moonlight was as gentle as water as it hung in the night sky, and a soft, silvery light gently hung down from the ceiling. The silver light lazily spread out to cover the entire floor, and a few rays of it converged onto Xi Jiu Er''s face, giving her originally cold face a touch of gentleness and beauty.


    The empty courtyard was twice as big as an ordinary house, and there were also all sorts of weapons piled up on the corners. Xi Jiu Er carried the high quality green peak that was brought up to him by the servants, and opened the lid of her cup as she blew away the remnants of the tea floating on the ground. Just as she was about to taste it, there were people walking towards the hall from the corner.


    "Prefect, this general will be troubling you." Xi Jiu Er stood up and bowed.


    The man who was called the Prefect pretended to be extremely passionate and placed his hand on Xi Jiu Er''s to greet him, "General Xuan, please don''t do this. I was previously a general under the command of the Wei Guogong, only because I received the wrong love from the Emperor did I manage to get this official position in the Dreamy Cloud City."


    Xi Jiu Er removed her hand without leaving a trace, walked to the side of the chair, and pretended to listen to the man''s praise towards the emperor, her left ear entering her right ear to look at his left and right boots out of boredom, seeing the bit of dirt on his boots, she was about to bow down and wipe it away, but unfortunately, the man''s sigh came from above her head, causing him to go silent.


    Xi Jiu Er was very suspicious of why this person did not continue to sing praises. He turned his head to look, and his eyes met the other party''s with a smile, "General Xuan, what a great appearance you have?"


    The man smiled as he sized Xi Jiu Er up. Xi Jiu Er was stared blankly for a while, then she sat down on a seat furthest away from the man, she did not wear any mask for the past few days, so she was wearing a military uniform today. Her combed long hair was tied up with a rope.


    The mask on his face was a delicate and pretty one that he had specially selected. It had no special features and could not be compared to his original face. However, this mask had no special features, but it had one or two points to it.


    The man stared at Xi Jiu Er''s face, and his Adam''s apple couldn''t help but roll for a bit. There was a greedy look in his eyes, and Xi Jiu Er accurately caught hold of that look. She was a little surprised that this man would brazenly reveal his peeping color in front of her.


    "Honorable Prefect," Xi Jiu Er''s clear and cold voice brought the man back to reality.


    "May I ask what is the matter, General?" The man picked up her teacup and took a sip. Her voice was full of excitement.


    Xi Jiu Er had already seen through the man''s prying eyes, and was slightly angered in her heart, "General, have you seen any abnormalities in the Dreamy Cloud City in the past few days?"

 C403

    The man raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised, "Really? I have been busy with official matters for the past few days, may I know what strange matter the general is referring to? "


    How could such an astute and astute person like Xi Jiu Er not see through his disguise and pretended to be unaware, "Does Prefect know about the Hibiscus Mutabilis?"


    "Hibiscus? Of course he knew that the pretty girl and the young servant in the pavilion were all first-class beauties. They were extremely enchanting when it came to serving people. What was going on? Which beauty did the General fancy the Hibiscus Mutabilis? "Or a waiter?"


    The man purposely said the two words "little servant" heavily, and stared at Xi Jiu Er without blinking. His despicable and disdainful expression made her feel disgusted.


    He was an eccentric person who was proficient in the art of yin and yang fusion and was addicted to breaking the axis. It was said that even the manservant in his residence had skin and skin relations with him, and Xi Jiu Er did not believe such ridiculous rumors at first, not to mention that they had even met once.


    However, he never expected that this man would actually hide himself so well, that he would hide his appearance in front of all the soldiers, that he would disguise himself as the young master of the Imperial Household, and that he would intentionally shake off his disguise in front of him today, so as to show him his disgusting appearance under the skin of his face.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly regretted that she had acted so rashly today. Without even informing Liu Shui, she had went into the Dreamy Cloud City to look for the Lord Prefect. She originally wanted to verify whether the man''s voice he heard last night was the Lord Prefect''s, but she did not expect that he would fall into such a predicament.


    The man slowly walked closer to Xi Jiu Er, pretending to be indifferent as he sat on a chair beside her, he extended his hand and received a fan with golden edges from Master. With a "shua" sound, he opened it, and casually waved it, sending the Master and all the servants beside him away.


    "General Xuan, you must have come to my mansion to have tea and chat with me, right?" The man chuckled, then retracted the fan in his hand and hooked it onto Xi Jiu Er''s cold face.


    "Honorable Prefect, please have some self-respect." Xi Jiu Er swept away the fan in the man''s hand, stood up, and was about to leave.


    Xi Jiu Er subconsciously felt that this man must not be simple. Before he tried to hide things from the rest of the soldiers, he had flirted with him frivolously. After being together with him twice, it made Xi Jiu Er feel that there must be more than just these two sides of the man, there must definitely be one side that we do not know about. If this man really has problems, then it would be a great danger for the entire Dreamy Cloud City.


    The man fearlessly stepped forward to pull Xi Jiu Er''s sleeves, and bent down to whisper a few words into her ear, causing the cold expression on Xi Jiu Er''s face to instantly fade. She had never thought that there would be a day where she would be taken advantage of by others, or be taken advantage of by a man as a person.


    Reason took hold of her last sliver of worry and finally managed to suppress it. She didn''t know if this man was intentionally provoking her, but the moment the man approached her, she felt an unimaginable sense of danger approaching her.


    Even if this man was not an arrow that had been set up by the enemy in his group, he would definitely not be a simple character. felt that it was best for such a dangerous person to leave as soon as possible.


    Xi Jiu Er did her best to suppress her emotions, but even so, she was still unable to do so. Xi Jiu Er fiercely turned her head and quickly pushed the man away from him, "The Lord Prefect is still one of the top figures in the entire Dreamy Cloud City, so it''s better to discuss this matter with the Madame after closing the door. Since you do not know the shame of it, please do not bring it up again, or else I will not know what you will do anymore. This lowly general will take his leave now. "


    Xi Jiu Er did not care about the man''s reply as he turned around and quickly left the Prefect''s yamen.


    Within the Prefectural Yamen.


    "This little chili really makes my whole body go numb!" The man leaned on the door and looked at Xi Jiu Er who was about to leave, her mouth constantly filled with obscenities. A man quickly flashed into the room from the side, and upon closer inspection, he was the Grand Master who had just left with the girls.


    "Milord, you must help out with the things that you spoke of last night, or else you know what the consequences will be." The Grand Master threatened the man, as if he had completely forgotten his identity.


    The man continued to stare at the door, as if Xi Jiu Er was still outside. Hearing the unfriendly tone of voice from behind him, he did not seem to be angry at all. And no one in the imperial court knew about the various things that I have done over the years, and I even gave you those golden jades, just so that I can watch over the Wei Guogong? "


    The Grand Master''s face was expressionless as he turned around and left, leaving all of the man''s questions in the latrine.


    The man shrugged behind him and helplessly left the government office.


    Today, the Hibiscus Mutabilis was filled with the fresh flowers of the young husband, the Prefect wanted to join in on the fun as well.


    Within the army camp, Xi Jiu Er was filled with black lines as she reported all the information she had gathered over the past few days to her grandfather, the Wei Guogong.


    When Wei Guogong heard Xi Jiu Er''s anger, she gnashed her teeth and informed the Dreamy Cloud City of the absurd and preposterous matter of the palace. In her heart, she felt disgust for her subordinate whom she had once greatly admired and valued.


    Because of a chance encounter, he became friends with the Wei Guogong. The man was a diligent young man, but no matter what she did, she would always bear the brunt of the consequences, and on the battlefield, she did not fear death. At one time, the Wei Guogong thought that she had made friends with a young man who had high ambitions, and had always tried his best to help him.


    However, no one would have thought that this man would suddenly disappear one night, and not until the second year of the Spring Equinox, this man, who was still as simple as he was before, would become the main event of the Dreamy Cloud City. No one knew the reasons behind it, and no one was aware of the reasons behind it.


    After that day, the man thought that he knew all the soldiers in the army, but he no longer came close to anyone. Gradually, everyone buried him in the depths of their memories, and in everyone''s eyes, all of this was just for the sake of fame and glory.

 C404

    Xi Jiu Er''s face reddened. Her cool and noble face was no longer replaced with anger and regret.


    She regretted not beating him up.


    "Jiu Er, you stay put for now. There''s something wrong with this Prefect."


    Wei Guogong moved closer to the light on the candlestick, carefully listening to Xi Jiu Er''s narration. She placed her hands on the table with a rhythmic motion.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something.


    "Grandfather, this bottle of red pills was specially refined by me today. A few days ago, I had not completely refined the antidote I fed you, and due to the circumstances, I had no choice but to use it earlier. Today, this red pill was completely refined by me yesterday," Xi Jiu Er said as he poured a pill from the bottle into the tea beside Wei Guogong.


    Xi Jiu Er shook his teacup, and watched as the tea in the cup slowly turned into a red cup without any residue at the bottom, then she handed the teacup over to Wei Guogong, "Grandfather, this cup of tea contains the antidote required to remove the poison from the white pill earlier, drink it first, and the next day, the poison will be expelled out of your body. That''s right, I had found this medicine in the [Body Poison Collection Art], it is said that once this medicine is refined, it can remove 100 poisons, and there is no need to be fear even the poison in Yuan Yu''s hands."


    Wei Guogong took the cup and drank it all in one gulp before placing the cup down.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, and continued: "That is indeed the case. This is a long story, let me explain it to Grandfather bit by bit." Xi Jiu Er reached out her hand to stroke the flickering candle flame on the candlestick, telling the whole story of how she had met this old Daoist.


    Xi Jiu Er''s mouth was parched from talking, she picked up the teapot and started pouring water into her mouth without caring about her image, who knew that she would be in too much of a hurry, if she was careless, she would choke on it, and the water bottle would fall down onto the table, supporting herself with her hands and coughing.


    "Slow down, what''s the rush?" Wei Guogong quickly helped her along the back, and Xi Jiu Er casually waved her hand, indicating that she was fine.


    In the following days, Xi Jiu Er would completely display her title.


    She was not worried about the army in the army camp. After all, with her grandfather and Shi Chen Wen in command in the army, what was there to be afraid of?


    For the past few days, Xi Jiu Er specifically went around the deep mountains to search for the medicinal ingredients needed to concoct the antidote. All in all, she searched for a few days before finally gathering a few medicinal ingredients.


    They talked about how Xi Jiu Er would ride her horse through the city gates early in the morning, and that as long as she passed through the city gates, she would be intercepted. No matter if it was an old man or a young man in the main horn, as long as she saw Xi Jiu Er''s figure, she would impatiently do all sorts of funny things.


    The first day, Xi Jiu Er passed by a noodle stall and suddenly saw a child kneeling down in front of the horse. If not for Xi Jiu Er holding onto the horse tightly with the reins in her hands, the dead child in front of him would have turned into a pool of bloody meat. Xi Jiu Er didn''t know why this child had suddenly appeared in front of the horse, and immediately dismounted from the horse to comfort him.


    Even Xi Jiu Er could not stop the flood that was rolling in, she could only stand to the side and wait for him to finish crying, the spectators were all pointing their fingers at her, and Xi Jiu Er heard that she was accused of being cold and heartless, that after bullying the children she did not even know how to argue, and was stood there expressionlessly as Xi Jiu Er was accused by the crowd, maybe the young man realised that she had let Xi Jiu Er take the blame for her recklessness, and felt embarrassed, and immediately stopped crying. Tears streamed down her face, and she started sobbing softly, not caring about the spectators, and pulled Xi Jiu Er away from the crowd.


    For some baffling reason, Xi Jiu Er was pulled far away from the crowd by the youth. When Xi Jiu Er wanted to throw off the youth''s tightly clenched fists, the youth suddenly stopped in his tracks. Xi Jiu Er also stopped and looked at a familiar figure in front of him.


    A handsome man in purple clothes leaned against the red door as he smiled with a face full of happiness.


    Xi Jiu Er knew this man as well. It was none other than the Dreamy Cloud City Lord, who had been rumored to have a fetish for Long Yang in the city.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the youth who went in front of the man to get the ten taels of silver.


    This relationship was to win the hearts of the people, to trick him into going to the government office and letting him automatically enter the mouth of the tiger.


    Xi Jiu Er quickly sorted out the situation, and stared at the man in purple clothes approaching him warily. Xi Jiu Er subconsciously wanted to run, but she didn''t expect that the other party would notice him and pull him into their embrace.


    Xi Jiu Er struggled with all her might, but the man''s seemingly weak and weak body was like a copper wall that tightly sealed herself, causing Xi Jiu Er to suddenly relax, as if the little thing in her stomach sensed the danger that mother was in.


    He moved uneasily, and the man saw that Xi Jiu Er had suddenly stopped struggling, and was about to lower the hand that was tightly binding her arm, and knew that in this moment of time, Xi Jiu Er had suddenly used his arm to grab onto his unstable claw, and then used a dragon swimming to break free from the shackles. He quickly retracted his arm, and a resounding slap landed on the man''s fair cheek.


    Xi Jiu Er used her fastest speed in her entire life to escape the scene of the crime. With lingering fear in her heart, she found her horse and once again exited the city gate alone.


    However, the man didn''t seem to be willing to let her off that easily.


    The next day, as Xi Jiu Er rode through the city gate, it was even more amusing this time, as an old man desperately wanted to acknowledge Xi Jiu Er as his granddaughter. Xi Jiu Er did not know whether to laugh or cry and explained that she already had a grandpa, so she did not need to add her as a granddaughter anymore.


    However, the strength of the masses could not be estimated, so this time, Xi Jiu Er fell into a trap. However, when the group of people brought the old man and Xi Jiu Er to the entrance of the government office, they saw the State Magistrate, who was dressed in his usual coquettish purple attire, staring with his eyes wide open as he watched the vast group of commoners carrying Xi Jiu Er to the entrance.


    Perhaps he did not expect the old man to bring so many commoners to the yamen, causing the Prefect to feel embarrassed, but this time, he let Xi Jiu Er go, allowing her to leave with the many commoners.


    However, Xi Jiu Er had been purposely doing it every morning since then. She rushed out of the city gate the moment it opened, and missed the time to prevent the perverted Prefect from capturing him entering and leaving the city gates. She spent the next few days staying at a villager''s house on a nearby mountain.

 C405

    After a few days of closed door cultivation, Xi Jiu Er specially thought of a way to avoid the common folk''s wisdom and rushed back to the army camp.


    This was the day before the battle that was decided upon by the Wei Guogong, and according to the secret plan that the three of them made, today, Xi Jiu Er was going to bring back the antidote to cure the poison, although the red pills from before could cure the poison, but they could not concoct any poison in a short period of time, so the soldiers could not detoxify the poison ahead of time, so Xi Jiu Er asked Xi Jiu Er to refine a type of external antidote for the poison.


    The night before the war, the soldiers in the army had specially washed the pills and washed them before smearing them on their bodies. This way, they could not only dispel the Gu but also avoid the Gu.


    On the second day, it was still Yin hour before he got up. At Yin hour when he used food, the ring-hour would order his men around and the ring-hour would set off in an instant.


    This time, only a few citizens from the Dreamy Cloud City came over to send off the army. Faintly, Xi Jiu Er could see a touch of purple, and when she looked carefully, it was indeed that perverted Prefect, she immediately pulled down her handsome face, and turned around to board the warship.


    Due to the last battle, nearly half of the warships had been destroyed and had to be reported to the imperial government for repairs. As a result, a lot of time had been spent and the scheduled time for them to return to the imperial court had been extended for dozens of days.


    This was the first time Xi Jiu Er had boarded a warship. Although she was not very familiar with the piloting of warships or the various components on ships, the water quality was extremely good and she did not show any signs of seasickness.


    Wei Guogong stood on the podium of the main boat and with a wave of her arm, the transmission drum below the stage started to chime in. The transmission officer on the main ship told the helmsman to start the boat, and also ordered Shi Chen Wen, who had been preparing to go and fight, to go as usual.


    Although his right arm was empty, his left hand had actually skillfully pulled out a sword. With a few steps, he leapt onto a slightly smaller warship that was next to the main ship.


    Shi Chen Wen frowned, these few days he had been training himself diligently in the use of his left hand. Now, not only could he write and eat as he pleased, he could even wield this blade that was over ten pounds of fine steel easily. In these few days, whenever he suffered, he paid back several times the amount he paid for it.


    However, what everyone never expected was that Shi Chen Wen, with his imposing manner, would go and challenge them, yet they were all kneeling on the main ship. When Shi Chen Wen got closer, he could clearly see that the person kneeling on the platform was actually the Prince of one sob tribe, and it was also the first time our army had been defeated on land, the primary eye.


    The primary eye was wearing a set of armor that was as black as the night, at the same time, its forehead was pressing against the boat, and its hands were holding something over its head in a gesture of "above". Shi Chen Wen was a bit confused, unable to feel anything, but at the same time he was exceptionally cautious, afraid that this was another enemy trap.


    Shi Chen Wen shouted from across the water, "If I, Shi, am challenging you today, who is in your army?"


    Three times in a row, but no one responded. Shi Chen Wen frowned as he watched the movements on the boat coldly, trying to guess the ultimate motive behind the other party''s actions.


    "Today, the Prince of Wu, primary eye, brought all her soldiers and surrendered to the army of the Daxing. The primary eye''s deep yet slightly female voice resounded above the entire water area. Even Wei Guogong who was a hundred meters away could hear the other party''s descent.


    Shi Chen Wen did not immediately go up to accept it. Instead, he turned back and reported to the Wei Guogong.


    Seeing the enemy ship getting closer and closer, he couldn''t help but to raise his spirits thirty percent. At this time, he didn''t know if Yuan Yu was on the ship or not, if he wasn''t caught by surprise, this person was most likely poisoned by his own poison.


    I am afraid that even has some connections with her.


    As for why the one sob tribe used all her strength to surrender to the Daxing, she was just a member of a different clan. She only had a false name and was carrying the burden of a King''s foster son, yet she was able to make a King of Death completely overturn the balance of power between them for a mere person like, which was indeed a strange matter.


    Many days later, Xi Jiu Er found out from her grandfather about the truth of this matter.


    It turned out that things were not as simple as it seemed. When the one sob tribe''s King came to the Daxing to pay her respects when she was young, she was invited to a banquet with a group of foreign prince at the palace. During the banquet, he enjoyed the unique and graceful dance of the Daxing''s beauties and drank a few more cups of wine.


    The dancers were originally not part of the palace, so they accepted the empress''s special invitation to enter the palace to offer a dance. However, they actually met the drunken Prince Yinwu, but they were unable to do anything about it. They begged for mercy and were extremely unwilling, but their bodies were still insulted.


    Before she passed away, she already had a son. Prince Wu hadn''t come yet, so she was in a rush to find him. The mother''s family all left the imperial city, nowhere to search for him.


    However, the Woox King had never given up on searching for his son. It was only when Yuanwu brought Yuan Yu back to the palace that Yuan Yu was finally acknowledged by the Woo King. He then decided to give him the throne.


    To this son of his, Duke Wu basically used his life to spoil him. He hoped that he could compensate this son with the guilt and unwillingness he had towards his mother, which was why he used one sob tribe to exchange for Yuan Yu''s life this time.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished listening, she could only sigh towards the sky, the pity the hearts of her parents.


    For the next few days after the war, Xi Jiu Er did not even dare to step out of the military camp. As long as she took a step out of the door, she would be able to see the sullen and abnormal purple color on her body, making people unable to avoid him.


    The weather today was extremely comfortable. Xi Jiu Er had been cooped up in her tent for a few days now, but she was finally unable to sit still. After yawning, she thought of a plan to deal with the enemy.


    Xi Jiu Er summoned Shi Chen Wen''s servants, took out a piece of clothes that she usually wore from her own bag, and passed it over, knowing that her servants would not listen to her schemes, Xi Jiu Er used all of her brainpower to threaten and tempt her, causing her to cover him with her clothes.


    Xi Jiu Er happily left the camp and left the back mountain. After walking just a few steps, she saw Liu Shui, who had previously told Yun Qing Ran to send a letter to her, asking her to wait at the back mountain for him to go shopping.

 C406

    was about to change into a mask at the back of the mountain, when he coincidentally met Liu Shui. When Liu Shui saw that his clan''s Miss was a little happy, he immediately went to welcome him.


    The two of them walked side by side until they reached the bottom of a large tree. Liu Shui vigilantly leaned against the side of a large tree and watched, but just as she turned his gaze towards a wild peach tree that was blooming with flowers, a black shadow flashed by her side. The speed of the shadow was fast enough to knock Xi Jiu Er out with a knife in one hand, causing his to turn around and carry Xi Jiu Er while shuttling through the forest.


    "Miss, look." Liu Shui turned his head and drooled as he pointed to the peach blossoms in the distance. There were disguise tools on the ground beside him, preventing him from seeing her own Miss.


    On the other side, Xi Jiu Er opened her eyes and met Feng Qing Cheng''s gaze.


    Feng Qing Cheng held onto Xi Jiu Er''s cheeks with her big hands, and he exerted so much force that it seemed as if he could crush Xi Jiu Er''s entire face. At this moment, he was like an asura who just crawled out of hell, but her goddess-like face had a pair of terrifying eyes. Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were bloodshot, and unknowingly, her tears had started to spill out.


    Feng Qing Cheng had completely lost his reason for doing so. Seeing his tears that seemed to be burned by something, in just an instant, he was stopped by Xi Jiu Er: "Feng Qing Cheng, you madman, let go of me."


    Madman? How could she call herself crazy? Didn''t she know that all of this was caused by him? He actually called himself a madman. His heart hurt, and he stared fiercely at Xi Jiu Er''s face as the muscles on her face began to tremble.


    At this moment, he really wanted to die with Xi Jiu Er! He had killed the woman who had caused him so much grief, but if that face were lifeless, how could he ever see her smile again, or see her frown again? And their child, their common child, who would watch the child grow up and teach him how to write and paint, not to ask him to be wise in the future, but to be happy.


    Jiu Er, why have you never stepped into my heart to see my love? Xi Jiu Er stretched out both of his hands in an attempt to stop his enormous body, but was easily grabbed by him, and an evil expression that was yet not a smile hung on his face: "Let you go? "In your dreams, even if I die, I won''t let you go."


    He pulled Xi Jiu Er''s body into her embrace, felt her petite and exquisite body, and smelled her hair. Raising her chin to meet the pair of eyes that were filled with hatred and fury, she said in a deep, cold voice, "Jiu Er, you will always be my woman in this life. In the next life, in the next life, you will always be my woman."


    Xi Jiu Er bit her lips stubbornly, why does Feng Qing Cheng always have to get along with me this way? At this moment, a wave of fatigue washed over him. Her chin was once again lifted by a big hand, and looked straight into Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes.


    "Ugh ¡­" "Don''t..." His tall and big body dimmed down as he pressed his lips together. At first, Feng Qing Cheng was just tossing and turning to absorb the energy in his body, but later on she used even more strength, as if she wanted to eat him. Finally, Xi Jiu Er felt a pain on his lips. Not only did he suck on her wound, but it hurt so much she wanted to cry. This man was really sick. Seeing how she loved her wife, who would want him to be like this? She wanted to kill and she wanted to hit her.


    "Scram!" In between, Xi Jiu Er roared, her lips stained with blood had a seductive beauty, her beautiful eyes staring wide, anger filling her mouth, causing Feng Qing Cheng to also be happy. She told him to scram? He was her husband, the father of the child.


    "Try again." Feng Qing Cheng said word by word.


    Xi Jiu Er stubbornly stared at him, as though if she said another word to scram, he would immediately find out for herself. Of course, Xi Jiu Er would not retreat at this time, so she spoke word by word: "I said to scram."


    "Alright, alright." Feng Qing Cheng was so angry that he laughed instead, and used his hand to grab onto her waist. His fingers nimbly untied the belt at her waist, and just like that, Xi Jiu Er''s robe was ripped off, revealing his middle clothes.


    "What are you doing?" Xi Jiu Er did not dare to move for fear of hurting the child, and since both of his hands were being held by Feng Qing Cheng, he could only stop her. Feng Qing Cheng smiled, he was extremely enchanting, and with a ripping sound, he easily tore apart his own clothes, becoming so empty that he could no longer feel any sense of security.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, don''t make me hate you." Xi Jiu Er spat out these words from between her teeth.


    "I don''t care if you hate me or not. If you don''t hate me, then just love me." said nonchalantly as she untied her robe. She immediately opened her eyes wide, as if she wanted to see!


    "Feng Qing Cheng... "Please don''t ¡­" Xi Jiu Er''s tears flowed down her face. She pleaded softly but the arrow on the bow had no choice but to shoot out. Feng Qing Cheng coaxed gently, "Be good, it will be alright in a moment ¡­ "In a moment ¡­"


    She did not want to be a good girl. This kind of humiliation was extremely shameful to her. She shook her head and said, "No, you go. Don''t touch me!" Feng Qing Cheng''s face darkened instantly, the gentleness disappeared and his face turned angry again. The flames in his eyes flickered, as though he was about to burn Xi Jiu Er into nothingness.


    Xi Jiu Er thought that she was already dead. When she regained consciousness, she saw a strange flower above her head. When she looked down and saw that the child was fine, he let out a sigh of relief.


    She thought it was just a dream, but the pain from below told her that it was definitely not a dream. Thinking about how this crazy Feng Qing Cheng actually dared to act so recklessly while she was pregnant with her baby, had he not considered having a child? Don''t you ever think about children? Grief welled up in his heart and he closed his eyes forcefully before reopening them. Suddenly, he was startled.


    In front of him was a maid with a round face and big eyes. He was around 12 or 13 years old and looked very cute. Both of them were shocked by each other. The maidservant held his chest and laughed, "Empress, you''re awake?"


    Empress? Xi Jiu Er felt her mouth going dry, the servant said quickly: "Does the Empress want to drink water? Servant will go pour water for the Empress to drink right now. "


    Xi Jiu Er sized up the place and did not pay too much attention to it. When the servant arrived, she drank some water to quench her thirst and asked: "Where is this place?"


    Unexpectedly, the servant girl suddenly knelt down and forced herself to do so, causing Xi Jiu Er to look at her suspiciously. Could it be that she was talking about somewhere else?


    "Empress, Servant cannot say it. The Emperor ordered Servant to not say anything, and only told his to say it if he needed anything. Servant cannot answer any questions, or else this head of Servant will move."

 C407

    Xi Jiu Er sighed, looked at the servant and said: "Get up, I won''t ask anymore."


    The servant heaved a sigh of relief, and Xi Jiu Er ordered: "Prepare hot water for me, I want to take a bath."


    "Yes." The servant responded and left. Xi Jiu Er looked at a certain place with a dejected look, feeling like she was about to cry. Not long later, the hot water next door had already been prepared. The servant girl helped Xi Jiu Er undress, her smooth and tender skin turning dark red one after another, some with bite marks on them. When the young lady, who had yet to leave the pavilion, saw this blush on her face, she thought of a man like the Emperor ¡­ Unexpectedly ¡­ Unexpectedly ¡­


    She calmed her mind and then carefully helped Jiu Er into the bath barrel. After being bathed in the hot water, Xi Jiu Er felt extremely comfortable on her skin.


    "Madame ¡­" This was Dong Zhu''s voice, and Xi Jiu Er''s mind jolted, seeing that Dong Zhu was safely standing in front of him, the corners of her lips curled up in genuine happiness: "Dong Zhu is here, you can leave now."


    "Yes." After the servant bowed and left, Dong Zhu came over to serve her. Seeing Xi Jiu Er like that, she knew what happened, and her heart ached for her. "Madame, let''s escape ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er did not say anything, but last night, she had faintly heard Feng Qing Cheng whispering in his ear: "Jiu Er, if you run further away from me, I will kill everyone you care about until you appear. Jiu Er... "Don''t force me, when I say it, I can do it ¡­"


    "Woo woo ¡­" Dong Zhu suddenly cried, Xi Jiu Er was startled: "Everything''s fine, why are you crying? "Oh right, how did you get here?"


    "Servant doesn''t know either. He will be here after Servant wakes up. When Servant came over, he saw too many guards, no matter how smart he is, he wouldn''t be able to escape. " Dong Zhu wiped her tears and continued, "Madame, what do you think we should do next? Ah ¡ª Madame, your ¡­ your stomach seems to have grown a little bigger ¡­ "


    "Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er lowered her head, appearing to have grown a little bit. She said unconcernedly: "Mn, it''s normal for children to slowly grow up."


    Dong Zhu tilted her head and said, "But it''s a little strange that it got bigger overnight ¡­" Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s expression, she kept her mouth shut and continued to do her own thing.


    This is the Imperial Palace? Wind Nation Palace? Xi Jiu Er''s brain worked very quickly, and after Xi Jiu Er finished packing, the door opened, and a eunuch came in holding a bright imperial decree and something as a reward: "Ruan Family receives the decree."


    What, Ruan Family? Xi Jiu Er was startled, and the eunuch smiled: "Hurry and accept the decree." This woman must be carrying the Emperor''s eldest son. Her status must not be ordinary.


    Xi Jiu Er did not kneel nor accept the decree, and the eunuch chuckled as he did not force anything, and only started to read out the imperial edict: "With the blessing of the Heavens, I am willing to deliver the imperial edict: The Ruan family is virtuous and obedient, gentle and intelligent, and possesses the blood of the Emperor of the Wind Nation, and today, the Ruan family has been conferred the title of Imperial Consort Ruan.


    The Emperor''s guess was indeed correct. The Ruan clan did not accept the decree.


    "If she doesn''t accept the decree, then read it yourself." Feng Qing Cheng instructed.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that the eunuch quickly finished reciting the decree, and then placed the decree into his chest, and had the palace maids carry the bestowed items in, and watched as the palace people bowed to Xi Jiu Er after doing all of this: "Imperial Concubine Ruan, this old servant will be leaving now."


    "Wait." Xi Jiu Er called out to the eunuch, "I want to see your majesty."


    "The emperor said that he won''t see the Imperial Concubine. Let the Imperial Concubine rest well!" The eunuch pointed at Dong Zhu and said, "This lady, the emperor is looking for you."


    "Servant ¡­" Dong Zhu looked at Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er rejected him: "No, Dong Zhu cannot leave my side."


    "Yes, yes. Servant cannot leave Master''s side." Dong Zhu nodded.


    "This old servant is powerless against your majesty''s orders." The eunuch laughed. Since then, Dong Zhu had never returned to Xi Jiu Er''s side.


    Xi Jiu Er felt helpless, from the looks of it, Feng Qing Cheng was obviously going to imprison him. Looking at the house''s bright and dazzling jewels, the corner of her mouth couldn''t help but curl up, "This Zhuge Feng Qing Cheng is delusional enough to use such a low level method to imprison me, a mere imperial concubine wants me to obediently wait here and give birth to your child.


    Xi Jiu Er looked around, and with an exquisite layout, she could see the meticulous efforts of the people who had arranged this room. Xi Jiu Er stood up and moved closer to the window, where a bunch of''s flowers were placed in a blue and white porcelain bottle, and a bunch of petals that were as red as flames bloomed, but also some flower buds that had yet to awaken. A few of them were still blooming, and the few that were stained with crystal clear dew slowly slid down, revealing the bashfulness of the flowers.


    The Gardenia jasminoides was Feng Qing Cheng''s favorite flower. Actually, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was weird that a man with an unpredictable personality like hers, who seemed like he ate nothing, would actually like such a passionate flower like the Gardenia jasminoides. When she accidentally found out about Feng Qing Cheng''s special hobby, she was really shocked, and for a moment, she felt that this man was actually very sultry and coquettish.


    As Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought of this, the icy cold smile on the corner of her mouth gradually warmed up. This unexpected warmth caught Xi Jiu Er off guard, and it took a long time before she managed to erase this warmth.


    In the empty room, the room was decorated with brocade and silk. The desolate room looked luxurious and expensive, and valuable treasures and antiques were placed on the shelves in the corner of the room.


    Xi Jiu Er looked around, and when she felt that the arrangement of the room looked extremely familiar, she turned her head and thought for a bit. Only then did she realise that it was actually exactly the same as the arrangement in his room when she was at home.


    "Humph!" Was he planning to attack? Feng Qing Cheng, you have underestimated me. " Xi Jiu Er watched on coldly from the sidelines, and treated these meticulous and nimble arrangements as Feng Qing Cheng''s small tricks. Naturally, it made him feel even more rebellious and disgusted.


    After looking around for a while, Xi Jiu Er started to feel sleepy, and the hand that was supporting her lower abdomen felt a little weak. She had no choice but to put aside the idea of escaping, and took off the quilt Clouddamask Hibiscus sachet.


    On the other side of the imperial palace, Feng Qing Cheng was sitting upright on the dragon''s table. There wasn''t the slightest bit of disturbance between her brows, as though she was a calm and serene lake in the middle of spring.


    "Your Majesty, the Imperial Consort, as you have guessed, did not accept the decree, and she strongly requested that we meet Her Majesty!"


    Feng Qing Cheng listened as his personal Chief Eunuch respectfully told him everything that had happened, without leaving a single detail out for him to hear.


    "Oh? "She wants to see me?" Feng Qing Cheng''s cold voice suffused with cold air, instantly lowering the temperature of the room from spring to winter. The old eunuch, who was waiting at the side for orders, couldn''t help but shiver from the cold.

 C408

    "Your Majesty, how is the matter resolved?"


    Feng Qing Cheng''s extremely ice-cold eyes seemed to stare unintentionally at a bottle of Gardenia jasminoides flowers not far away that was filled with water that was nourishing a bunch of crimson red flames. A trace of gentleness flashed past her eyes.


    "For the time being, I don''t want to see her. You should place some heavy soldiers around the perimeter of the courtyard. Remember, place them all in the shadows and don''t appear in the open. She is an extremely shrewd and cunning woman."


    After a long while, Feng Qing Cheng lazily leaned on the dragon bed with half of his arms supporting, half of his eyes closed, while the other half he continued to stare at the Gardenia jasminoides in the bottle with a faint warmth in his voice.


    The Chief Eunuch had long gotten used to serving this new Emperor with an unpredictable holy might. With his strange personality, he almost misunderstood the emperor''s sacred will several times. If not for him crawling around in this deep palace for dozens of years and deeply comprehending words and words, he would have already been sent to see the late emperor.


    Even so, the Chief Eunuch in this palace still feared this man who was as deep as an ancient well. It was as if if if he was not careful, he would be decapitated in the next moment.


    Chief Eunuch stood at the side, thinking about the Emperor. Was he going to imprison this new Imperial Concubine and abolish it after she gave birth to the First Prince, or was he not willing to let her go and use this method to temporarily imprison her. After the birth of the child, would they reunite?


    Feng Qing Cheng''s words had two meanings, it was difficult for him to ask the Chief Eunuch at the side for his own good. Since he did not dare to ask the Emperor for his intentions, and did not dare to do as he pleased, he could tell from the Emperor''s orders that he had to place the guards in the shadows.


    "As you wish," Chief Eunuch received the order and left with a headache.


    Feng Qing Cheng stood up and paced in front of the white porcelain peony bottle that held the Gardenia jasminoides, then casually took out a Gardenia jasminoides that was blooming at the right time. The Gardenia Flower was originally covered with small thorns, and when the attendants presented it in the morning, they had already carefully plucked all the thorns between the flowers.


    "The Gardenia jasminoides that will be sent over tomorrow, do not take the stinger." Feng Qing Cheng''s dignified voice sounded out from the room.


    "Yes, Your Eminence." The attendants outside the room received the edict neither humbly nor subserviently.


    "Even if it''s full of thorns, I can still play with it in the palm of my hand."


    The corner of Feng Qing Cheng''s mouth held a chill and his eyes emitted an iciness that could not even be compared to Dong Ri''s cold days.


    The beautiful and alluring Gardenia jasminoides faced the warmest day in winter, and was crushed little by little in Feng Qing Cheng''s fingertips. The juice of the flower petal carried the wetness of early morning dew, gradually wetting Feng Qing Cheng''s rough palm.


    Feng Qing Cheng threw the broken flower leaf out of the window, his hand was wet and uncomfortable, "Come, clean hands", his cold voice seemed so sudden in the quiet room.


    Moments later, a group of richly dressed maids filed in.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little tired in the past few days and spent several days in bed.


    "Imperial Concubine, the sandalwood in the garden is open today, and it is a rare sunny day. Seeing that the sun is about to rise, should Imperial Concubine come out and take a bath?"


    A young girl in bright, jade carved clothes ran all the way in with light steps and a clear and melodious voice.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly opened her eyes, seeing the person, she slowly spat out a word.


    The young lady was a maid that Feng Qing Cheng had specially sent over a few days ago. He knew very well that Xi Jiu Er did not like to be crowded, and did not like being surrounded by a group of people.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t like people who were especially cheerful and chattered non-stop. Even her personal maid, Liu Shui, who occasionally had big nerves had also been used to it for quite a few days.


    The young maid''s name was Wan Yun, and he was the daughter of a lowly tailor. In order to treat the mother in his family, he entered the palace and sent three taels of silver home.


    After Xi Jiu Er found out about her background, a moment of pity appeared in her eyes. She joked that Xi Jiu Er was a kind-hearted person and that she would definitely have a filial son in the future.


    Facing such a happy and contented young girl, the softest part of Xi Jiu Er''s heart was unwittingly touched. Hence, from almost the very beginning, this charming and charming maid was completely accepted by Xi Jiu Er from the depths of her heart.


    Wan Yun skipped over to the side of Xi Jiu Er''s bed and landed in front of the bed. With a smile on her face, she asked: "Imperial Concubine, do you want to go out with Yun''er to bask in the sunlight?"


    Xi Jiu Er lazily stretched her waist and slowly got up while supporting her somewhat heavy body. Seeing that, Wan Yun immediately got up and helped her put on the cloth over her, then knelt down and wrapped her sheepskin and thick fluffy boots up.


    Xi Jiu Er supported her maid with one hand as she slowly walked out of the hall. The winter sunlight was exceptionally rare, so when she rested her hand on her brow and took a deep breath, she could feel a cool breeze blowing on her face.


    "Empress, don''t inhale the cold winter wind. It will cool your heart and lungs." Wan Yun wrapped the fox fur on Xi Jiu Er''s body tighter and turned around, allowing the two eunuchs behind him to bring out the pear-shaped wooden bed that was lying on the side of the hall.


    "Put it under that pine tree, and then carry a bed with a Cloud Satin Hibiscus quilt to spread on the bed. The bed will be thicker, so the Empress won''t stay cold any longer."


    Wan Yun chattered continuously as she instructed the eunuch to carry the pear wood bed under the pine tree for Xi Jiu Er to rest.


    Once everything was ready, Wan Yun carefully helped Xi Jiu Er onto the bed, and then turned around and carried out a mink fur overcoat to wrap Xi Jiu Er into a thick, large dumpling.


    Xi Jiu Er watched her do all this. After she was done, he sent her to the library to find a few ancient books to have some fun.


    The winter''s sunlight was always especially rare. It shined with a golden radiance in a warm manner. Xi Jiu Er leaned against the couch and held onto a remnant volume of her battle tactics as she seriously focused her gaze on the words in her hands.


    "Let me in, I have the gold medal from His Majesty, the boldness of a servant." A domineering female voice sounded from outside the hall.


    The person who disturbed Xi Jiu Er''s interest in reading was a girl who looked to be no more than fifteen or sixteen. Xi Jiu Er put down the book in her hands, turned her head and looked towards the unfamiliar woman who was slowly walking over.


    The young girl''s blushing face had an unexplainable flush to it. Xi Jiu Er looked at her calmly, then took back the book in her hands. There was no trace of this'' uninvited guest ''who had suddenly barged in.


    Her voice was as cheerful and tender as a canary, "Elder sister, little sister is the youngest daughter of the Western Region''s Duke of Fish, her name is Yu Xi. When little sister enters the palace, she will definitely be with big sister, lowering her head and meeting your eyes.

 C409

    Xi Jiu Er lowered her head and looked at the methods in the book, the wisdom displayed between the lines enchanted Xi Jiu Er, as for the noisy canary by her ear, she didn''t pay any attention to it.


    Feng Qing Cheng actually wanted to take her as a concubine? As expected, this was the most heartless act Xi Jiu Er had ever had.


    Wan Yun watched on from the side as this man suddenly appeared, acting arrogantly in front of her own master. As a maid with a heart of gold, Wan Yun stood up resolutely.


    "Princess, this is the Imperial Concubine''s palace. If there is nothing else, my master needs to rest. Could you please take a look elsewhere?"


    Wan Yun silently stood between the two of them. It seemed as if she was respectfully giving the order to expel this "uninvited guest".


    Yu Xi was feeling extremely pleased with himself. The legend that he had been imprisoned in this place was called Imperial Consort, but in reality, it was just a hen raised by the Emperor to lay eggs. Although it occupied this beautiful place, it was only that his Majesty had not finished his interest in it.


    "You, a mere servant girl, dare to yell at me?" Yu Xi finally reacted, someone was giving him an order to leave, and instantly felt displeased in his heart. The clear voice that was directed at Wan Yun began to emit a crackling sound as it reprimanded him.


    "Yun''er, who is this? "You''re so uncultured, hurry up and chase them out." "Listening to the canaries'' noise, Xi Jiu Er felt that the old melon seeds were in pain. She closed the book and pretended that she did not know the other party''s identity as she coldly told Wan Yun to "clean" the place.


    Due to fear towards the other party''s identity, Wan Yun had always endured the anger in her stomach and kept it to herself. Now that she had received the orders from her own mistress, she was immediately overjoyed, "Princess Yu, my wife has asked me to send you out of the palace, it''s better for me to not drag you out."


    Since young, Yu Xi had always been the apple of his father''s eye. Who would dare to raise his voice in front of her, let alone try to put on a show of strength?


    Yu Xi pretended not to hear Wan Yun''s order to leave, pretending to be extremely fond of the scenery of the courtyard, as she leisurely walked around, completely ignoring everyone else.


    When Wan Yun heard this, he could not control her anger and ran to her head. She could not help but raise her voice, "Princess, my mother invites you out."


    Wan Yun stepped forward and was about to pull her back, but who would have thought that the other party would push her away so abruptly that she fell flat on her face.


    "Who do you think you are, to think you can make a move against my princess?" Before his voice had even finished, a resounding slap landed on the face of Wan Yun, who was pushed to the side.


    Yu Xi proudly looked at his servant girl, and bared his fangs and brandished his claws at Wan Yun, wanting to kick her again.


    Hit the dog and look at its owner. Today, I will hit the dog in front of its owner, and I want to see how this seemingly weak and weak Imperial Concubine will react.


    As Yu Xi watched from the sidelines, his cold eyes landed on Imperial Concubine who was lying on the bed. He lowered his eyebrows and looked extremely weak, just like a sickly child.


    However, Xi Jiu Er lowered her eyebrows and realized that the other party was trying to humiliate him.


    Wan Yun trembled as she saw the other party''s fist strike towards him. Wan Yun closed his eyes in fear, but the pain she expected did not spread out. She carefully opened one of his eyes.


    He saw the arrogant girl in front of him. For some reason, she was covered with sweat and knelt down.


    "Wan Yun, come over here" Xi Jiu Er''s cold and sinister voice passed through the crowd and entered Wan Yun''s ears without leaving a single spot. Wan Yun covered her swollen cheek that had been slapped halfway, and stood up to flick off the dust on her body. As she brushed past her shoulder, she faced the maid who was in so much pain that he wished she were dead.


    When Yu Xi saw the other party insult his servant girl, it was as if he felt that he was being insulted. He turned around and pulled Wan Yun back, his right hand quickly slapped away.


    "Ah," an alarmed cry rang out. Yu Xi powerlessly lowered his right hand, hugged his bloodied right arm, and sat down on the ground with his butt.


    Wan Yun took three steps forward and ran to Xi Jiu Er''s side. At this time, Xi Jiu Er had already left the bed, wearing the fox fur coat, and with a face as cold as snow, she leisurely walked to the front of the master and servant pair. She extended her hand and twisted Yu Xi''s lower jaw, using thirty percent of her strength to force them to look at him.


    The Miss of a rich family, who always opened her mouth and stretched her hand out, never had she received such an insult. Her eyes, which she had been forced to look Xi Jiu Er in the eye, contained a malevolence that could not be hidden.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly sneered, "Little miss, you are not bad indeed, but there is still a difference between heaven and earth for a devastatingly beautiful woman, but to your emperor, that is just a tool to vent his lust." He fiercely threw away the other party''s face and extended his hand, gesturing for Wan Yun to take out a handkerchief.


    Wan Yun took out a silk scroll from her waist and handed it over to her master. After receiving it, Xi Jiu Er carefully wiped the back of her hand, casually threw it on Yu Xi''s face, then turned around to return to the bedside.


    Yu Xi glared at her fiercely, thinking about how His Majesty the Emperor had specially ordered his eunuch to bring him into the palace today, even though he was still as cold as ice. He had only glanced at once, then tossed him a gold medal and left.


    Just as Yu Xi was confused, the other party suddenly awakened him. It turned out that the Emperor wanted him to go to the imperial harem to take a look.


    Wasn''t such a clear and obvious hint to him that he would be staying in the imperial court soon?


    Yu Xi was secretly happy. His father had always hoped for this the most, since he himself was a prince of the opposite sex.


    If he could one day stay in the imperial harem, he could not only help his father gain a place in the imperial court.


    Who knows? Maybe in the future, I will have the chance to chase down that broken Queen, and then this grand harem will be my, Yu Xi''s, domain.


    The overjoyed Princess Yu wanted to find someone to show off her gold medallion, but only then did she realize that there were only two women in the harem. Her wings were not yet full and it was better to be afraid of the empress, while the other woman was.


    It was said that the woman was brought back by the Emperor not long ago. As soon as she entered the palace, she was imprisoned in a certain palace.


    After a long discussion, Yu Xi brought his servant girl and arrogantly barged into the palace. Other than the empress''s main hall, the scenery and layout were the best.


    She thought that she could let her vanity show off in front of everyone before returning home full of glory. However, reality still gave her a ruthless slap in the face in the end.


    Yu Xi''s elegant brows tightly furrowed together as he stared at the nearby Xi Jiu Er, who was emitting malicious resentment. The corners of his mouth were tightly clenched, and the sharp pain coming from his hands caused her to unconsciously suck in a few breaths of cold air.

 C410

    Fresh blood gushed out from his right arm and dyed his green sleeves red. The fresh blood slowly spread down his arm and gradually landed on the ground, splashing numerous small, fiendish flowers.


    Xi Jiu Er was very pleased with the other party''s reaction. The cold smile on the corner of her mouth completely faded as she ignored the pair of servants, "How dare you hurt me. Your majesty and my father will definitely not let you off," Yu Xi spat out a sentence of threat.


    Xi Jiu Er looked back at her and suddenly felt that the girl''s unexplainable hatred on her face was funny, as though in front of her was a docile little kitten that suddenly, for some reason, extended its claws towards its owner.


    She was just a little girl, waving her claws at others. She didn''t know that her claws weren''t strong enough to hurt others, but it could attract a bunch of enemies.


    "Childish." Xi Jiu Er looked at the painful figure on the ground with disdain, then took out a crystal clear jade bottle from her chest pocket, poured out a cyan colored medicinal pill and passed it to Wan Yun who was beside him, and casually pointed at the maid who was lying on the ground and twitching.


    Wan Yun unwillingly took the pill, but did not personally go forward to feed the ''enemy'' who had ''rewarded him with'' a few slaps earlier. Instead, she turned around and gave a few slaps to an eunuch in order to give them a good glare.


    The young eunuch submissively accepted the pill and carefully moved in front of the twitching maid. He extended his hand and stuffed the pill in his hand in. Only after seeing that the maid had subconsciously swallowed the pill did he finally relax and move back.


    Clutching her bloodied sleeves, Yu Xi watched on coldly. She swore to herself that one day when she was favored, she would definitely tear this woman into ten thousand pieces so that she could be insulted with her own blood.


    The anger in his heart was indescribable, but he was able to suppress all the pain within him. It was as if at this moment, the pain in his body was incomparable to the pain in his body.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned on the bed once again and changed her direction. She picked up the book on the side and continued to study hard.


    Wan Yun covered her swollen face, preparing to ''invite'' the master and servant out of the courtyard. Looking at her master''s attitude, she did not want to continue the farce, so Wan Yun stepped forward and prepared to clean up the ''battlefield''.


    This time, it was beyond his expectations. Yu Xi brought his servant girl, who he had just finished detoxifying and was still struggling to walk, and left the courtyard with three turns a step at a time.


    "Xi Jiu Er suddenly looked up from the book and glanced at the servant girl who was pouring water for him," On the left side of my dressing table, there is a white bottle in a wooden chest, go and wipe the wounds on your face, tomorrow, you will return to your tender white skin ".


    Wan Yun was startled for a moment, then realised that the other party was talking to him, but the other party had always been very concise, to the point that she did not even know her name.


    Therefore, sometimes Wan Yun really suspected that his own master might have forgotten his own name, or was too lazy to call out his name, so she just told him that things were much simpler.


    "Got it, thank you for giving me the medicine," Wan Yun blessed himself, and his clear and gentle voice with a hint of a smile rang beside Xi Jiu Er''s ears.


    Wan Yun covered her red and swollen face as she happily walked into the palace with small steps.


    Just then, she was too happy and accidentally pulled her upper face. The pain made her scream and twitch. However, when she thought of the medicine that her master had given her, her heart immediately became gloomy and cheerful.


    That day, when the trembling young princess of the Rain County Wang Family came out of Xi Jiu Er''s great hall, she was spotted by a group of sharp-eyed palace maids and eunuchs.


    These palace maids and eunuchs, who had always liked hearing secrets about the Eight Trigrams Formation, would sometimes sit together in groups of two or three and kowtow on the melon seeds whenever they had free time.


    When she thought of how the first gossip in the palace these days was about the young princess of the Rain County Wang Family, she forcefully broke into the residence of the Imperial Concubine. She did not know how the two of them got along with each other, but after two hours, the young princess of the Yu Family covered her bloody arms with a strange expression and left the palace in the Imperial Concubine.


    The palace maids and eunuchs always had nothing better to do, so they loved to make up an East Family Patriarch. The West Family''s short history was rather interesting, which could be used to adjust the long years of their lives.


    Thus, when someone testified and testified solemnly that he had personally witnessed it himself, and had eavesdropped on a few words at a corner of the wall, he was certain that Imperial Concubine had lynched the young princess of the Yu Family.


    Just by relying on the little princess'' bloodied sleeve, it was clear without a doubt that this Imperial Concubine was going to die in a violent and bloodthirsty, inhuman manner.


    When Wan Yun went to the kitchen to ask for an example of this month''s candied fruits, she had no complaints about it.


    Since they often came to the imperial kitchens, there were quite a few old nannies who knew each other. Since they had come all the time, they naturally greeted people whenever they met.


    As he thought, he kicked his leg and prepared to step forward. But before he could take a step forward, he heard a few vague words about his master floating in the distance.


    Out of curiosity, Wan Yun quickly dashed into a dark corner and perked up her ears to listen carefully to what the other party was discussing.


    When the words fell into her ears, Wan Yun immediately changed her expression. What entered her ears were all sorts of guesses and rumors about her master. She had interacted with her master over the past few days, so she deeply understood who she was.


    But today, these people could speak such nonsense with just a few words and fragments. Wan Yun was a little angry.


    The sun was setting, and the lone and naked peach tree by the window looked especially lonely in the afterglow of the setting sun.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned against the window and watched the orange glow outside as it caressed the ground. The heat from the furnace that was used to warm her hands had already been extinguished, causing her to suddenly feel a chill invading her body.


    Tonight, Wan Yun came back especially late, holding a basket covered with a piece of coarse cloth in one hand, while nervously leaning on the entrance of the hall, and peeking at the scene inside the hall with her round head, she saw that other than a fifteen to sixteen year old maid who had just arrived, who was holding his head as he napped by the table, there was practically no one else in the hall.


    Wan Yun patted her chest in relief, and then sneaked into the hall on her tiptoes.


    The winter night''s wind seemed to carry a knife as it scraped against the mortal bones bit by bit. Wan Yun shuddered coldly, and immediately pulled tightly onto the collar of her cotton-padded jacket around her neck.


    Wan Yun sneaked into the hall with her back against the wall, preparing to circle around the little maid who was sitting in front of the table and return back to her room.


    But in reality, it was just that, before Wan Yun could even step out, she was stopped by a voice from behind him.


    "Why did you return so late?" Xi Jiu Er said in a cold and worried voice.


    Wan Yun was immediately petrified, as though she had cast a Body Securing Curse, she anxiously stood in place, not daring to move at all.

 C411

    "Servant, Servant went to the royal kitchen just now and was left behind by the imperial cuisine division for a moment. As we are all from the same village, we discussed for a while, only knowing that the sky had darkened, so we came back a little late."


    With his back facing Xi Jiu Er, he did not dare to turn around. His body trembled slightly as he stood in place, trying his best to cover his face so that Xi Jiu Er would not see her miserable state.


    Xi Jiu Er saw her abnormality and groomed the fox fur coat on her body. A maid, who had been awake for a while, hurriedly helped her take a few steps forward.


    "Turn around." Xi Jiu Er approached Wan Yun, and when she turned her head to look at his face, Wan Yun quickly turned her head to the other side. Xi Jiu Er faintly caught a glimpse of a blush on her face.


    "I told you to turn around," Xi Jiu Er''s voice suddenly became a bit more cold, upon hearing the voice, Wan Yun couldn''t help but shiver, and had no choice but to turn around.


    Xi Jiu Er went closer and raised her head, only to see her originally lively and charming appearance. She did not know what had caused her, but her face was bruised and had a few bulging bags, while a trickle of blood leaked out from the corner of her mouth.


    Xi Jiu Er subconsciously felt the other party''s fear, so she softened her tone and carefully asked: "Yun''er, this face of yours, how exactly did you get it?"


    Wan Yun trembled slightly upon hearing this, and revealed the truth of the matter only after a long while.


    Originally, she was an old man from the royal kitchen. Before Wan Yun even got close to those few people, a few big and round eunuchs appeared from the backyard, and when Wan Yun saw this scene, she immediately wanted to retreat, but she was helpless as she came over with a wooden stick each.


    Wan Yun saw that she was on the verge of getting rich, so she could only raise her stick and prepare to fight with the other party. Just at this moment, the Director in charge of the imperial kitchens walked in step by step with small steps.


    Wan Yun thought that she could finally be saved, and hid in a corner with tears in his eyes, staring at the Director who was approaching her step by step. Unexpectedly, the Director only glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and then walked into the imperial kitchen.


    Due to the need to be serious about implementing Director''s words of "do not see blood", a few of them collaborated to drag Wan Yun into a corner, and then, naturally, there was a group fight.


    After everyone had left, Wan Yun then looked at the sunset. The sky had not darkened yet, but the wounds on her body would cause everyone to mock him.


    It was not a good thing for the Imperial Concubine, not to mention that the Imperial Concubine was currently at the heart of the struggle, her every movement affecting everyone in the Imperial Concubine''s residence.


    Thus, for his face, Wan Yun hid in a corner in the cold wind for over two hours with wounds all over his body. It wasn''t until the sky darkened that he finally left the imperial kitchen, trembling from the cold.


    When Xi Jiu Er heard that his own big girl had been bullied by a mere imperial kitchen, the flames in her eyes started to ignite. She did not care about the opinions of others at first, but those rumors and slanders would disappear after a long time.


    However, she had never thought that these rumors could not hurt her, but the loyal servants by her side were not as invulnerable as she was.


    Xi Jiu Er''s body was emitting a ghastly cold aura and as if she was attacked by this cold aura, she sneezed loudly.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw that the lower half of her filthy dress had been soaked by the snow, she frowned slightly, "Go and take a hot bath first. Jin''er, go and heat up Yun''er''s pail of hot water, then take some Golden Sore Medicine from my room, and apply some on your Big Sister Yun later."


    The maid called Jin''er immediately accepted the order, and Xi Jiu Er then called Wan Yun back to her room to sleep, waiting for a hot bath.


    After Xi Jiu Er ordered the two people, she turned and prepared to leave, but unintentionally saw the basket placed at the foot of the table.


    The basket was covered with a coarse cloth, so it didn''t look like anything special. When he opened it, he saw several plates of candied fruits and pastries, but without exception, they were all broken.


    Xi Jiu Er firmly leaned on the table. She had never thought that this palace''s gossip would actually be so terrifying. So it turns out that there were some things that you didn''t care about, where others could let you go.


    Sometimes, the more you want to act like it doesn''t matter, the more you''ll jump out at a certain time and get injured that you weren''t prepared for. Even if it wasn''t you, it would still hurt the person you care about.


    Irritated and bloodthirsty? Unstable temperament? Very well, then I shall let you have a taste of this imperial concubine''s identity.


    The second day, Xi Jiu Er had donned her usual tedious palace attire early in the morning, and had Jin''er comb her hair into a bun that was the most popular hair style among the noble ladies in Wind Nation.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her reflection in the mirror with satisfaction. Her eyebrows were like the eyebrows of a mountain, her eyes were like the waves of autumn, her lips were like a cherry, her eyes were bright and her teeth were white.


    "Today, the Japanese palace wants to eat the bamboo shoot pointed pigeon soup, salmon and the prawn soup. Remember, you must use the spring prawns of Mingxi River."


    As Xi Jiu Er fixed her sleeves, she nonchalantly ordered the lunch that she wanted to eat. She pretended not to know that the ingredients did not exist at all, since she wanted to teach those snobbish people a lesson, and kill the chickens and monkeys to make an example for them.


    Jin''er received the order and the room instantly quietened down. Xi Jiu Er stood in front of the mirror and carefully arranged her clothes, counting the numbers in her heart.


    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...


    Before Seven could finish counting, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the door, followed by the sound of a woman''s voice.


    "Imperial Concubine, the royal kitchen''s Director said that the food the Empress wants to eat cannot be found this season. She begged Imperial Concubine to change some of her dishes."


    The female voice belonged to none other than Jin''er, the servant girl who had rushed back with the order.


    "Oh? If this Imperial Concubine wants to eat something, she''ll have to look at the eyes of the imperial kitchen''s Director? "


    Xi Jiu Er sat on the side of the table, holding up a pot of tea that she had just brewed, she poured herself a cup and slowly savored the good Longjing Tea.

 C412

    "Reporting to the Empress, the Director said that it''s not easy to find ingredients ¡­"


    "Bring Director to see me!" Xi Jiu Er had especially put on airs today for the sake of this Yin-Yang Chicken that she was about to place on the board. She had already sharpened his blade and could not let it escape.


    "As you command." Jin''er respectfully turned around and pushed the door open.


    Xi Jiu Er had specifically given Wan Yun a day of leave today, giving her time to hide behind a corner screen later, and watch him take her "revenge with one arrow".


    Xi Jiu Er slowly swung her legs, waiting for the fish on the board to be "sliced into pieces" by him.


    After a while, Jin''er led a man dressed in red palace clothing and lowered his head. Xi Jiu Er immediately carried up the airs of a Imperial Concubine, her beautiful eyebrows tightly knitted, and her eyes slightly glanced at the man kneeling on the ground.


    "You are Director from the royal kitchen?" Xi Jiu Er intentionally let the chill in his throat spread to all directions, and prepared to deal with the enemy in one move, making the enemy''s brain freeze from the coldness that he emitted.


    The fact was, of course, following this trajectory. The eunuch, upon hearing the chilling cold from his head, instantly softened his body and lay flat on the ground, his legs and stomach twitching uncontrollably.


    Xi Jiu Er was very satisfied with the other party''s reaction. Seeing that the other party had forgotten to pronounce her words due to fear, she could only continue to ask coldly, "You are Director?"


    Director who was so scared that he forgot to answer immediately stammered in reply, "This official ¡­ This official is... Catering Room... of... "Director."


    Xi Jiu Er continued coldly with a smile at the corner of her mouth, "Since you are a Director of the royal kitchen, then you should know that what I want to eat is within the scope of your profession, right?"


    Director kneeled on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably, as though he was eager to dig a hole in the ground and hide in it.


    In his heart, he was thinking that if his master came to the main hall during the summer, all the mosquitoes and flies would be frozen into a freezing point.


    He suddenly felt extremely happy, and the smile on his face couldn''t be concealed anymore. However, the opposite was the Director whose four limbs were on the ground, and he probably even had the heart to die right now.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Director who was trembling on the ground and felt disdain in his heart. But then, he thought, in this deep palace, who wasn''t attached themselves to the battle and held high on the ground? This had already become a secret that no one knew about.


    Now that he was imprisoned here by Feng Qing Cheng, in the eyes of all you people, he was like a broken wall with a wall pushed down by everyone. Everyone wants to step on him now, what about a mere Director?


    When he reached the end of the story, he realized that the young prefecture lord was actually a legendary b * tch who only knew how to drink green tea after he had taught her a lesson.


    This chick really did do a good job. The first trick in front of her, and also focused on buying people''s hearts for 500 years, it could be said that wherever there was trouble, there would be Princess Yu Xiaoqie. This was simply a kind little girl that was rarely seen in tens of thousands of years, wasn''t there?


    However, the truth was not that simple. Only after Xi Jiu Er found out about the princess'' background did she successfully tear off a piece of fake skin that was meant to be used for entertainment from her bloody body.


    The little princess was a scheming woman, and had been to the palace with her father, who was not highly valued by the sect, several times. In just a few tries, she managed to buy a group of loyal dogs, and after that, she smoothly entered the palace.


    It also left a good impression on everyone''s hearts with its gentle and virtuous appearance, so this time, Yu Xi was automatically relegated to being a weak person, and on top of his mysterious veil, was wrapped a layer of vicious, poisonous woman''s mask.


    Even so, when everyone was condemning Xi Jiu Er''s poisonous heart, another shocking piece of news had once again spread to the Inner Court.


    Because Duke Yu had framed the loyal officials of the imperial court, he was sentenced to death. All his family members were sent to the border, never to step foot in the imperial capital again for the rest of their lives.


    Everyone started to guess whether or not this sudden matter of yours was related to Xi Jiu Er ruthlessly destroying flowers. Like this, within a group of loyal dogs, other than helping their master fight against injustice all day, the only thing they did was to make Xi Jiu Er feel dark.


    A trace of craftiness flashed through Xi Jiu Er''s beautiful eyes. Before this, she intentionally sent someone to inquire about the relationship between the Director in the imperial kitchen and Princess Yu Xi.


    Although on the surface, the two did not seem to be related at all, but after Xi Jiu Er had pondered over it for an entire day, she finally came to the following conclusion.


    Before the Director of the imperial kitchen entered the palace, he was a chef at the palace of the Rain King. He was kicked out for some reason and entered the imperial palace in the end.


    Xi Jiu Er guessed that Duke Yu had probably intentionally sent this person into the palace as a spy, but she had no idea that he would end up like this in the end. Not only did she not use this chess piece, she had even revealed it herself. The meticulous but unfaithful Duke Yu fell into a moment of silence.


    Director, who was kneeling on the floor, trembled even more. He trembled his four limbs, and even started to shout loudly, "Of course it''s your subordinate''s responsibility, but it''s true that your subordinates couldn''t gather these ingredients for a while. Let''s beg Imperial Concubine to bypass this servant!"


    Director never thought that this Imperial Concubine, who was rumored to be completely useless, would so brazenly come to retaliate against him.


    Since things had progressed this far, if he still could not see through the intentions of the Imperial Concubine, then his death was not too far away.


    After allowing his subordinates to injure the eldest daughter of the imperial concubine yesterday, he had thought that a woman who was neglected by the emperor, even if she enjoyed the title and status of imperial concubine, was still inferior to the lowliest palace maid.


    However, early this morning, reality was bloody, and he had to pay a heavy price to see the truth.


    Early in the morning, after Director finished lazily cleaning up as usual, he dragged the time to enter the imperial kitchens. Unexpectedly, there was already someone waiting for him there.


    The person who was waiting for him was none other than the Chief Eunuch, the emperor who was on good terms with him. To this boss who suddenly appeared in the imperial kitchens, a bad thought mysteriously appeared in Director''s mind.


    The Director pulled him to the side and inquired a few times, only then did he learn a little about the Emperor''s internal affairs. It turned out that today, his Majesty the Emperor had somehow heard of his subordinate, the big girl who was bullying the Imperial Concubine.

 C413

    If you don''t show your prowess, you''ll be a sick cat


    Since the two of them had a good relationship in private, Chief Eunuch took the huge risk of hiding the truth for him, and only executed all of his subordinates from yesterday in secret.


    This Imperial Concubine didn''t seem to be as useless as the outside world claimed she was, and her Majesty didn''t seem to have abandoned her on purpose, so it was truly thought-provoking.


    When he received Imperial Concubine''s orders this morning, he originally wanted to properly prepare this meal, and even if he wanted to atone for his sins, he could still curry favor with the other party. However, the other party seemed to want to make things difficult for him, as the ingredients listed could only be found in the spring.


    "Oh? I just want to eat this today, and if you can''t do it, then that would be disobeying my orders. Jin''er, tell me, if you disobey my orders, how should I deal with you? "


    Xi Jiu Er''s voice was like snow, freezing Jin''er, who was standing by the side, before respectfully returning.


    "If you go against the orders of the Imperial Concubine, at least thirty slabs of wood, and at most, ten feet of red."


    Director was startled when he heard it, the expressions on his face were all stunned, as though he was also frostbitten by Xi Jiu Er''s cold.


    "If that''s the case, I''ll drag the staff down with me until the thirtieth day."


    Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to look at the paralyzed person on the floor again, she stood up and returned to the screen to change clothes.


    Wan Yun who was inside was hiding inside, sneaking a peek at the scene outside through the gaps in the screen.


    "Is this a good deal? Are you satisfied? " Xi Jiu Er pulled Wan Yun''s small hand, saw Director being pulled out, and pulled her out of the screen.


    Wan Yun gratefully blessed Xi Jiu Er, "Thank you master for helping Servant take his revenge."


    Xi Jiu Er pulled her over, and said gently, "Silly girl, I am not doing this all for you. If I want to block the quiet mouths of the people in this palace, I must make an example to them, otherwise, they will treat me as a soft persimmon that they can pinch as they please."


    "paused for a moment, then took a sip of hot tea that Wan Yun had poured for him," Originally, I wanted to capture those few people who bullied you yesterday and punish them as well, but this morning, I sent some people to search through the imperial kitchen, but they were unable to find anything. After that, I asked the Director, and found out that these few people were kicked out of the Imperial Palace for some reason, are you curious about this?


    Xi Jiu Er continued to drink from her cup, thinking that it was truly strange, she actually encountered such a coincidence, and got kicked out of the palace, giving those people the advantage.


    Early in the morning, before the sun set, the drama had spread throughout the entire Imperial Palace. Even some of the ministers from the previous dynasty had heard of it.


    Feng Qing Cheng was in a particularly good mood today, the corners of his mouth were bent upwards uncontrollably.


    Last night, in the middle of the night, he heard the guard leader who was hiding in the darkness and monitoring Xi Jiu Er come over to report that she saw the big girl, who was beside Xi Jiu Er, sneakily ran back to the palace.


    Only then did Wan Yun know that it was because of the rumors that had recently spread around the Inner Court that Wan Yun found out about it. The little girl, who was anxious to protect her master, had impulsively fought with him.


    After Feng Qing Cheng finished listening, he was in a particularly bad mood. However, the moon was high in the sky, so he couldn''t find anyone else to ask.


    Thus, he specially sent the Chief Eunuch beside him to deal with this matter the next morning.


    After the morning assembly, when he had just finished listening to Chief Eunuch''s report, he walked into the hall and saw the leader of the guards rushing over.


    Knowing the cause and effect of this matter, Feng Qing Cheng actually started to smile at Xi Jiu Er''s childish behavior.


    A few days ago, he had specially sent someone to bring the Little Canton Princess Yu Xi into the palace. Originally, he had wanted to give her a command medallion so that she could go to the Inner Palace and act as an example to Xi Jiu Er so that she could see what a lady truly meant.


    The palace Xi Jiu Er was in had all been guarded by powerful inner palace experts for twenty-four hours a day. Other than the people beside her, who could enter the palace whenever they wished, the rest of them had to possess the Emperor Royal Medallion.


    So when Yu Xi came crying to Feng Qing Cheng, the other party had already known what was going on.


    Feng Qing Cheng frowned. After hearing the other party''s nonsense, he asked the Chief Eunuch beside him to kick him out expressionlessly.


    In the end, he found out that Princess Yu Xi''s father was plotting something, but he couldn''t find concrete evidence to prove it. In the end, he randomly found a crime and sentenced him to death, and the whole family sent him to the border.


    The palace had long buried the chess pieces of various powers, and since the Rain King was already dead, it wouldn''t be too eye-catching for the chess pieces to continue living in the palace.


    With a trace of cruelty at the corner of Feng Qing Cheng''s mouth, he lightly waved his right hand in the air and a rough outline of a man with a low and hoarse voice appeared in the shadows.


    "What orders does the emperor have?"


    "Pull out all the spies the Rain King has in the palace. Remember, kill them all!"


    "Understood."


    The man''s black mask flashed in the shadows, and no trace of him could be seen.


    Feng Qing Cheng approached the window that patch of scarlet, and suddenly remembered that this kind of flower was usually blooming in winter, and at the same time, it was also Xi Jiu Er''s favorite time to eat mutton.


    It was rare for Xi Jiu Er to admit her identity in front of everyone today, maybe this could really allow her to obediently stay by her side.


    In another place in the Imperial Palace, Xi Jiu Er had wrapped herself up into a "big meat bun" and was leaning against a pine tree as she watched the yard full of alluring Gardenia jasminoides s.


    In fact, Xi Jiu Er did not really like this kind of enchanting flower. In her opinion, this kind of flower was more suited for men like the Prince Xian.


    Xi Jiu Er bent over and broke a bud that was about to bloom, bringing it close to her nose. The dense fragrance of the flowers, accompanied by the clear scent of morning dew, instantly made her feel refreshed.


    "The beautiful scenery of beautiful flowers gives This King the impulse to recite a poem."


    The man''s voice carried a bit of flirtatious laughter. Xi Jiu Er was startled upon hearing this, and immediately turned around with a smile. As expected, he had not seen his old friend for a long time.


    "Prince Xian, when are you free to come to my desolate courtyard today?" Xi Jiu Er held onto a Gardenia jasminoides in her hand. Her body was covered in a golden sheen from the sunlight, and it was rare for her to have a bright smile on her face.


    The man in red robes was the Prince Xian that practically everyone in the capital knew. Mu Qiu Shui, facing the sunlight that was only a few steps away from him, looked at the beauty with slightly narrowed eyes.

 C414

    Xi Jiu Er''s thin hand gently stroked her complicated hair, and scarlet clouds appeared on her face. The Gardenia jasminoides in her hands had been accidentally grabbed by her and her finger was punctured, "Aiya!" Xi Jiu Er cried out in surprise.


    Wearing a flirtatious red python gown with golden threads, and with a long wing hat slanted to her head, Mu Qiu Shui''s sloppy look made her seem rather unruly.


    "Jiu Er, what''s wrong?" Xi Jiu Er exclaimed as she drew him over, her tone filled with uncontrollable worry.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly laughed. The faint pain from her hands made her gasp, "It''s fine, it''s just that this Gardenia jasminoides is beautiful, it''s just that this hook was too many. She accidentally pricked her finger."


    Mu Qiu Shui held tightly onto Xi Jiu Er with one hand, who was about to push herself away, and brought the other party''s slender hands close to his eyes, only to see a small dot continuously spitting blood.


    "It''s already bleeding, it''s still a small matter. Yun Xiao, quickly go to the imperial physician and find an imperial physician. Hurry."


    "Understood." A thin and small youth jumped out from behind him. After receiving the order, he immediately ran out of the main hall.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that he was extremely nervous and immediately became happy. Regardless of whether this person in the Deep Palace had malicious intents, or was scheming against him, at least she had a close friend that could care about him at all times.


    The sunlight shined on his thick and slender eyelashes, and jumped around like a naughty child, warm enough to wrap around the two of them. Xi Jiu Er hoped for a moment that she could freeze in place.


    "Your Royal Highness, the imperial physician is here." From afar, the youth raised his voice and pulled a young man towards them.


    The Red-robed King turned his head and saw the breathless young doctor, he immediately let go of Xi Jiu Er''s hand and grabbed the young lord''s hand, walking towards Xi Jiu Er.


    "Quick, quickly let Imperial Concubine see. Just now, her hand was pierced by the Gardenia jasminoides''s hook and her finger was pierced. This king looked carefully and it seems like half of it was pierced into the flesh. Take a look carefully."


    The Red-robed King stood beside him and told the young imperial physician about the matter of his finger being pierced. Xi Jiu Er felt that even if it was funny, it was especially warm when she looked at the other party''s nervous face.


    The young master hastily bowed to the two of them, then took out a magnifying glass made from iron leather from his pocket and placed it in front of Xi Jiu Er''s finger.


    "Please excuse me," the young imperial physician suddenly bowed to Xi Jiu Er, then quickly took out a pair of tweezers from the medicine box, picked up the magnifying glass and continued working.


    The young imperial physician carefully moved closer to the magnifying glass, carefully pinching the prick in his finger with a pair of tweezers. His expression was solemn, as if this wasn''t a small prick, but a terminal illness.


    "Sss", Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt a sharp pain from her fingertips.


    "I''ve taken it out." The young imperial physician raised the tweezers in her hand and swiftly took out a white handkerchief. She quickly wiped the tweezers clean and then lovingly put them back.


    Mu Qiu Shui gently grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s finger, brought it close to his eyes and looked at it carefully, then turned to the young imperial physician and said: "Are you sure you don''t need to apply some Golden Sore Medicine or something?"


    The young adult didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. It was just a small wound the size of a sesame seed. Why would he need ten taels of gold to apply the Golden Sore Medicine on the wound?


    He silently cursed in his heart, but on his face was a respectful young imperial physician, and helplessly replied: "My prince, Imperial Concubine only has some superficial wounds, they will scab very soon, and there is no need to apply the Golden Sore Medicine."


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head heavily, and was about to turn around to snatch the medicine box carried by the imperial physician, "Give this king, this king will apply the medicine for the Imperial Concubine."


    The pitiful young imperial physician could neither retreat nor block. He could only stand on the spot while trembling and trembling as he carried the medicine box. He was extremely unwilling to remove the medicine box.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw the pitiful look on the imperial physician''s face, which showed that he was unwilling and did not dare to retaliate, Xi Jiu Er instantly felt a row of cold sweat on his forehead.


    This monster was starting to torment others again.


    Seeing Mu Qiu Shui''s sharp fingers reaching out to the imperial physician, the latter drooped his ears, about to tell the other party about his precious box. But just as this was about to happen, a pair of slender white hands appeared between the two of them.


    My skin is rough and thick, so I don''t need any Gold Sore Medicine. A few days ago, I even gave some Gold Sore Medicine to a maid.


    With a wave of his hand, Xi Jiu Er released the pitiful imperial physician. Under the other party''s grateful expression, he was greatly satisfied.


    Xi Jiu Er''s mood was incredibly bright, even better than the warm sun today.


    Amidst the imperial doctors'' gratitude, Xi Jiu Er, who was completely satisfied, completely misunderstood the true meaning of her feelings.


    Actually, the imperial physicians were only looking down on her for her high position and not caring about anything else. She was able to casually give that bottle of Golden Sore Medicine, which was worth at least a hundred gold, to a servant.


    Just a moment ago, he was infuriated by Mu Qiu Shui, and his eyes were filled with tears. The afternoon sun was a little dazzling, reflecting a bunch of silver rays.


    He just had some atmosphere and disdain, that''s all.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked at the imperial physician, and then the narrow eyes of the fox turned and glared at him, causing the little imperial doctor''s eyes to immediately fill with tears, he hugged the medicine box and ran out of the hall.


    "Prince Xian, how did you get in? His Majesty has taken special care of this place. Is there no one who can enter without his gold medallion? "


    Just as Xi Jiu Er wanted to ask this question, she was interrupted, and was suddenly reminded.


    When Mu Qiu Shui heard this, he started to laugh, as if he had thought of something very ridiculous, and forced himself to smile comfortably before he was willing to continue, "This king and his majesty made a bet. His Majesty has promised me that if I win, he will agree to one of my conditions."


    "Oh? Your majesty was willing to give up even this ten thousand miles of land? "


    "It would be better to give This King ten thousand taels of gold for someone who wants his labor."


    Mu Qiu Shui waved his hands, he completely disliked the question that Xi Jiu Er asked and pouted, no longer continuing to smile.


    Xi Jiu Er shrugged indifferently. Her curiosity spurred her to continue asking, "What kind of bet did Prince Xian make with His Majesty?"


    Mu Qiu Shui''s smile, which had originally stopped, climbed onto his face again. In front of Xi Jiu Er, it sounded like a smile that was like a blossoming flower that was trembling. "This king is betting with His Majesty, this king can tell with a single glance if a woman is still a perfect body."


    Xi Jiu Er sniffed, and rolled her eyes in boredom, but he did not urge him to continue.

 C415

    "I didn''t expect that our emperor would be so pure. Out of the ten women, only three have guessed correctly. In the end, I won against His Majesty with a score of seven to three."


    Mu Qiu Shui''s voice was filled with joy, as he was completely immersed in the joy of defeating the emperor.


    "However, your highness is really bored, to actually gamble in such a boring manner." l


    Xi Jiu Er was startled upon hearing this. Such a boring game, only Mu Qiu Shui could think of such a bet. Presumably, Feng Qing Cheng was not bothered by the other party at the time, and had reluctantly agreed to it.


    Mu Qiu Shui was startled for a moment, then in the next moment, he immediately laughed until his hair was standing on end.


    Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to continue asking, she turned and walked over.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked at his only spectator, who silently turned around to leave. His vanity was in the air when it suddenly dropped to the ground, breaking into eight pieces that couldn''t even be replenished.


    "I say, Imperial Concubine, it wasn''t easy for me to ask the Emperor for a pardon. You sure are ruthless," Mu Qiu Shui caught up quickly, but she still pretended to accuse the Emperor while pretending to be wronged.


    Xi Jiu Er started laughing as she heard this, she did not slow down her pace at all, and walked straight to the entrance of the great hall to the hundred year old pine tree, waving her hand to call the servant girl who was quietly waiting there. "Wan Yun, quickly go and make a pot of hot tea, to moisten the throats of our Prince Xian", the people inside raised their voices and replied.


    Not long later, Wan Yun carried a pot of tea brewed by Tie Guanyin and a few plates of candied pastries to the two of them.


    Initially, I wanted to send us to deliver some to the Duke. However, the Servant s couldn''t take even half a step out of the palace, but fortunately, the Prince himself came today, so the Servant s didn''t have to send any more. ""?


    It was only because he had such a big appetite that he remembered to make the pastries himself. The palace s pastry chef only knew how to make a few pastries, and as he ate and ate until he was tired of it, he decided to cook them himself.


    As for the portion he gave Mu Qiu Shui, it was completely out of his love for food and his instinct to cherish food, he did not want to throw away the pastries that he had painstakingly made, and he could not leave them there all the time.


    On second thought, the king didn''t have anything to ask of him. He didn''t care about the pastries that he made. It would be futile to send them. Maybe he would have thrown his feet out the moment he stepped into the room.


    In the end, Xi Jiu Er pushed all the names in her head to the side. Other than sending a few names to the Empress, she planned to send the rest of the names out of the palace to Mu Qiu Shui.


    However, the man who was as scheming as the sea had actually managed to stop the servant girl he had sent out to deliver the pastries.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t care about how that person treated her. She had never once thought of staying in this quiet and deep palace for her entire life.


    She would not be one of the three thousand beauties of Feng Qing Cheng. To wait all day for the emperor''s favorite was not something a woman like Xi Jiu Er could endure.


    Now that he had his own child in his stomach, he had no choice but to devote himself to it. If Feng Qing Cheng thought that by relying on this alone, he could trap her, then Xi Jiu Er would only give him four words, which was just wishful thinking.


    Mu Qiu Shui, who was at the side, had a face that was flattered, as he picked up a piece of the soft cinnamon cake and stopped in midair. Only after a long while did he retract his gaze from the cinnamon cake.


    "Sweet but not greasy, and it even had the fragrance of osmanthus flowers. As expected of a high-grade cinnamon cake, it''s really great," Saying this, he stuffed the remaining cinnamon cake into his mouth, and closed his mouth, trying his best to digest the delicious taste.


    "Cough cough cough", just as he was about to start eating, he realised that the cinnamon cake was actually a little dry, and could not be killed for a long time. The more it chewed, the more it lost its saliva, and in the end, all of it stuck to Mu Qiu Shui''s throat.


    "Slow down, slow down. If you were to send the cinnamon cake''s food down with tea, it would be weird if you didn''t choke on it," Xi Jiu Er coquettishly scolded her as she quickly poured him a full cup of tea and passed it over.


    This time, Mu Qiu Shui did not take it, but held onto his throat as if he was struggling, and the young servant standing beside him accepted it in his stead, and then tested the temperature cordially before carefully feeding it to his mouth.


    "Master, please be careful. This water is a bit hot."


    The youth carefully warned him repeatedly. Mu Qiu Shui had been choked so much, how could he listen to him? He opened his mouth and gulped down a full cup of water.


    After that, he indicated for the young man to pour another cup of tea, and repeated this action several times. Only when the tea that was halfway through the hot tea entered Mu Qiu Shui''s stomach did he see the beautiful face of the teenager recover.


    "This King is choking to death. Burp..." A burp that reverberated through the air made Mu Qiu Shui''s face darken. This kind of disgraceful thing made Mu Qiu Shui, who thought he was an elegant and elegant man, to immediately swear that from today onwards, he would not eat cinnamon cake anymore.


    Xi Jiu Er half covered the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, trying to hide her smile, but didn''t expect the emotions in his eyes to betray her disguise.


    Mu Qiu Shui instantly became sad again. If he had known earlier, he would not have eaten this broken cinnamon cake, but the taste of the pastry was very good. If he had not done that, it would have been better.


    Xi Jiu Er did her best to hide the smile in her eyes. She lowered her head and poured herself a cup of tea that was already half cold, and concealed the corner of her mouth within the teacup as she pretended to stare at her pearl embroidered shoes.


    Mu Qiu Shui mustered his courage, "If you want to laugh, laugh. Since you''re holding yourself back and suffering internal injuries, this king cannot afford it."


    Xi Jiu Er felt a burning gaze, and immediately met it with Mu Qiu Shui''s determined gaze, "I''m not laughing, who''s laughing?"


    Seeing his reluctant expression, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but laugh and say "Puchi", before breaking the record, "Your Royal Highness, don''t mind me, my character is ¡­"


    Before she could finish her sentence, the other party let out a breath of relief and took it from her. "Do you have a temper that I don''t know about?"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, she firmly believed that the other party knew that she was the type of person who smiled, but she did not have any ill intentions, and she also believed that the other party would definitely understand, because the relationship between the two of them was indeed very good.


    The two of them had not seen each other for a long time, so naturally, they had a lot to talk about.


    Xi Jiu Er sent Mu Qiu Shui out of the palace door and obediently returned to the great hall on her own. Ever since she was imprisoned here, there was not a day where she did not want to escape.


    She kept on sneaking up the eaves of houses for a few days in a row, trying to probe out how many experts Feng Qing Cheng had planted in the shadows.


    Unexpectedly, he discovered that even the hundred year old tree that he loved to stay on the most, had several people hidden within them. If not for the fact that someone had moved his limbs in the dark, even in broad daylight with Xi Jiu Er''s gaze, he wouldn''t have noticed.

 C416

    In that case, how about a show?


    I waited for the song to end and the crowd to disperse.


    The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth curled slightly, and her eyes inadvertently glanced at the hundred year old pine tree, and she turned to enter the great hall.


    "Your Majesty, where Imperial Concubine is today ¡­" Outside the window, the voice of a stolid, emotionless man gradually rose.


    After Feng Qing Cheng heard this, he put down the book in his hand, got up and walked to the window, then extended his hand to open the window.


    "How is it?"


    "The two of them seem to be getting along very well, seemingly very happy."


    "Oh?" Feng Qing Cheng deliberately made a turn in his tone, revealing all his emotions at the very end.


    Today, Mu Qiu Shui had pestered him to make a bet, and with a sudden headache, he had casually agreed to it.


    However, he had promised the other party that he wouldn''t be able to return even if he said that he was a prince, not to mention that he was the ruler of a country.


    His face darkened throughout the entire process as he barely managed to complete the gamble. Only then did Feng Qing Cheng finally understand that he had schemed against Feng Qing Cheng, the other party was able to swim unhindered amidst the mountain of fresh flowers, and in his heart, there was only one person. Regarding the relationship between a man and a woman, he had heard about it much more than what was actually being used.


    The other side had come to prepare a trap for him, but he had no reason to take revenge on them.


    Even if he didn''t want to eat it, he had to eat it.


    When Feng Qing Cheng thought about this, his eyes became shrouded in dense dark clouds, and the hands that were supporting the windowsill tightly clasped together, as though Mu Qiu Shui''s neck was in his hands. As long as he used a little more strength, he could pull the other party''s neck off.


    "Your Majesty?"


    The man hiding in the shadows outside the window finally felt a trace of emotion. He shouted "Your Majesty" several times, but the other party did not reply. Thus, he could not help but raise his pitch.


    "Your Majesty? Are you still there? "


    "Eh?"


    Feng Qing Cheng was finally pulled back by a voice full of suspicion. Only then did he realize where he was.


    When the man heard the indifferent snort, his heart finally let go of the boulder and he continued with their conversation.


    Feng Qing Cheng listened, and one ear-piercing word after another rolled in, falling into his ears. A faint trace of anger rose in his heart.


    The two of them got along harmoniously, and Mu Qiu Shui turned back three times with each step.


    Xi Jiu Er, this woman, could only be her, if anyone dared to lay their hands on him, she would definitely not let them go, even if this man was the famous Prince Xian, so what?


    Today, Xi Jiu Er was the same as always. When she had nothing to do, he would come out and bask in the sun. When she had nothing to do, he would lie under the pine tree and read some tea and eat melon seeds.


    Everything seemed very ordinary.


    But the reality was, Xi Jiu Er hated this deep palace even more.


    Not to mention that Feng Qing Cheng had imprisoned him deep within the palace, he had not shown his face to see him for a period of time, and had even made a Princess Yu Xi come to make things difficult for him.


    The palace was full of schemes and scheming, and there were plenty of people in the front and back of the crowd.


    Xi Jiu Er''s personality had always been cold, she liked a peaceful environment, and wished even more that the people around him would treat others sincerely. She did not need to worry about him all the time, because when she relaxed her guard, she would be stabbed in the back by someone, and he might not even know who the person who used the blade on him was!


    The thing that Xi Jiu Er hated the most in her life was, first, that in such a noisy environment, the second reason was that she wanted to be under the same roof as those who were too shrewd.


    Unfortunately, although the Imperial Palace was quiet and deserted, there were dangers lurking everywhere. The so-called harsh government was stronger than a tiger, but it was not comparable to the ill intentions of humans.


    In the past few days, although Xi Jiu Er looked like she did not do anything, she had secretly investigated every corner of the hall thoroughly.


    He discovered that the experts that hid in the shadows every day would switch shifts at ugly times. As long as he managed to sneak out at that time, he would have the chance to rush to the gates of the Imperial Palace at ugly times.


    Xi Jiu Er had once indirectly asked Wan Yun when people in the Imperial Palace would come to transport away the slops that they had left behind the day before.


    When he found out that the time of transportation of the slops was also around three quarters of an hour at the ugly hour, he started to plan his escape.


    Today, Mu Qiu Shui wanted to pester Feng Qing Cheng and do the same thing he had done yesterday. He knew that the Emperor on the dragon case would completely ignore him and had no choice but to go forward to tempt him.


    With a wave of his hand, Chief Eunuch and two guards brought Mu Qiu Shui out of the royal study. After that, the door slammed shut tightly, leaving the Prince Xian outside and Dongbei Bei Feng.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked in the direction of the palace that imprisoned Xi Jiu Er, sighing in joy. Helpless, he had said that he would like to play a game of chess, so he could only give up.


    Xi Jiu Er, on the other hand, threw the matter of the two playing chess far away, and only waited for the sky to turn dark so that they could carry out their plan of escape.


    Slowly and unhurriedly, he held up the green porcelain pomegranate pendant and took a sip. Then, he took the poetry book and read it carefully, with his eyes fixated on the lines between the words, Xi Jiu Er''s gaze shifted a few inches every time he flipped the pages. Under the sunlight, he pretended to be looking at the sky and sizing up the time.


    The moonlight gradually descended and there were only a few rough eunuchs and two close girls in Xi Jiu Er''s palace. Originally, there was even a girl called Dong Zhu who was lent to her by the empress a few days ago.


    It was a good thing that both Wan Yun and Jin Er were smart and clear-headed women. Many times, they would not say a word and would only need a single movement to understand the other party, and even complete the task perfectly.


    "Yun''er, I have something important to tell you tonight. You should prepare yourself."


    After Xi Jiu Er finished her dinner and dismissed everyone, he carefully pulled Wan Yun to the corner of the inner hall.


    "I wonder what business Imperial Concubine has with Yun''er? "Is there anything important that requires Yun''er to do something so mysterious?"


    Wan Yun respectfully bowed her head, waiting for Xi Jiu Er''s orders.


    Xi Jiu Er stepped forward and pulled her hand which was held in front of his chest. She glanced around, and then said mysteriously: "Yun''er, I''m escaping today, are you willing to help me?"


    Xi Jiu Er had always referred to sherself as "I" and had never called herself "I" in front of anyone. Even if Feng Qing Cheng were to personally come, he would not be able to make her change her mind.


    She had never known herself as Feng Qing Cheng''s woman, nor did she admit that she was this Wind Nation''s so-called Imperial Concubine.


    She was only Xi Jiu Er, Wei Guogong''s granddaughter, Great Beijing Dynasty''s son, and not some Empress of any country.


    Hearing that, Wan Yun frowned, and then gently pulled her hand away from Xi Jiu Er''s hands without leaving any trace, and continued to lower her eyebrows and lower her gaze, "I am sorry, Servant is not able to comply with this matter."

 C417

    Xi Jiu Er thought that this maid, who was usually close to him, would help him to escape from this cage, but she never thought that she would have the chance to reject his offer.


    "Now that you know about this, if you dare to let a third person know about it, I will definitely not let you go."


    This was the first time Xi Jiu Er called herself "I," in front of the servant girl Wan Yun. Now that the escape plan had been leaked to her, saying that she wasn''t worried was impossible.


    He had expected that if it was an ordinary hymen who heard that his master was about to escape the palace and needed his help, they would not be scared silly, but would be bitterly advising his master not to get into danger.


    And the woman in front of him, other than replying him with "I forgive this Servant for not being able to comply" without being humble, she was even more so standing there in a calm and composed manner, without the kind of reaction a servant girl should have.


    Xi Jiu Er was afraid that if she really wasn''t as innocent as she looked, then she must have some sort of identity behind her that was hard to guess.


    Right now, the only thing that could scare the other party was his title of concubine in the Imperial Concubine. Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that it was funny, he had to rely on this thing that he had racked his brains for, in the end, still have a chance of escaping this palace.


    "Yun''er, obey." After a long time, the servant girl''s soft voice resounded in the spacious palace.


    After receiving the other party''s reply of confirmation, the heavy burden in Xi Jiu Er''s heart slightly dropped. However, at this moment, she no longer believed this harmless looking maid in front of her.


    Her subconscious told her that this woman might not be a simple palace maid.


    Xi Jiu Er did not give the other party any reaction. Other than giving her a deep look, the emotions in her eyes were immediately concealed.


    "Go," Xi Jiu Er ordered coldly.


    "Yes," The maid replied emotionlessly before turning around and leaving the palace.


    The stone in Xi Jiu Er''s heart rose up, and slowly moved towards her heart, gradually forming a layer of regret that tightly wrapped around the boulder. A voice from her subconscious told her, that action just now might have been a fatal injury to her plan to escape.


    In the royal study room, Feng Qing Cheng laid his head on the table.


    "Report."


    "Speak."


    A voice suddenly came from outside the window, interrupting Feng Qing Cheng''s train of thoughts. Hearing that, he put down the red ink pen and sat on the dragon table, while rubbing his temples to relieve the pressure, and while waiting for someone to report.


    "Reporting to his majesty, Imperial Concubine is escaping from the palace tonight," the man hidden in the shadows outside the window said with an ice-cold voice that carried an undetectable disgust.


    "Escape?" Hearing that, Feng Qing Cheng stopped rubbing, got up and walked over to the window, using all his strength to open the window, and looked at the dark night, then coldly said: "Come in."


    "Yes."


    A black figure quickly flashed into the room from outside the window, with a few steps, he walked behind Feng Qing Cheng and quickly knelt down to pay his respects.


    "Explain your Imperial Concubine''s plan for tonight."


    "Understood."


    The man''s business did not have any special characteristics, it was stiff and stiff. Feng Qing Cheng had specially prepared to finish the memorials early tonight, wanting to go to Xi Jiu Er''s palace to visit this wild horse that he had imprisoned. Thus, he had specially sent his personal eunuch away, so as to prevent anyone from disturbing him.


    However, he did not expect that the spy planted next to Xi Jiu Er had come to report, that the other party wanted to escape the Imperial Palace while the moon was shining.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s rage suddenly shot to the top of his head. He bent over and swept over the table that was piled like a mountain, and all the memorials were thrown onto the ground, not a single person was spared.


    "Impudent! I had a good time and thought that wolf cub would eventually become familiar with her, but I didn''t expect him to be unable to do so. Since she wants to escape, I shall accompany her in finishing this act."


    Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes burned with fury as he turned around and said to the black clothed man, "Bend over. Step forward."


    The man wrapped in black clothes was stunned when he heard this. He immediately lowered his head and moved forward respectfully.


    Their two slender figures drew a long line under the light. A cold wind blew outside the study room, blowing away the dead leaves on the ground.


    Xi Jiu Er nervously put on the night clothes she had been preparing for a long time, because her stomach had grown even larger in the past few days.


    As a result, he could not wear too much. His body, which was used to wearing fox fur blankets, would find it hard to adapt to the few layers of silk clothing at the moment. The burning hot land dragons in the hall caused Xi Jiu Er to take off his thick fox fur coat, but he was still cold to the point of trembling.


    Once everything was ready, Xi Jiu Er covered the pillow with a layer of emerald green brocade clothes, and quickly placed the pillow under the blanket. She carefully pinched each corner, trying her best to make the blanket look like the body of a person curled up, and created the illusion that someone was deep in sleep.


    After he finished the most important trick, Xi Jiu Er lifted the candle, picked up the glazed lamp shade, and blew lightly, extinguishing the light.


    Usually, Xi Jiu Er did not like sleeping with people following him, so at this time, almost everyone in the palace had already gone to meet up with Zhou Ye.


    The inner hall that no one paid attention to was the best protection for Xi Jiu Er, because when she was kidnapped, she was basically penniless. Along the way, she had to stay at a shop to eat, and she also had to buy tonics to recuperate her body at any time.


    Of course, these were all lightweight items. Something that was easy to do and impossible for others to find was what was needed to travel and rob homes.


    The moonlight outside the window was just right, it was supposed to be a dark, windy night. When killing people and setting fires, move to Xi Jiu Er''s place, it could be changed.


    Xi Jiu Er stood in the pitch-black inner hall, and silently prayed to the Buddha, Bodhisattva, dozens of times in her heart. From the entrance of the hall down to half her head, she raised his head and looked at the sky.


    Xi Jiu Er hid herself in a corner of the darkness, concealing herself in the dark night. In her hand was a dagger hidden deep within her boots, and moonlight was shining through the window as she entered the room.


    When the time was near, Xi Jiu Er stepped onto the hour and climbed up the corners of the roof along the dark and overcast roof. The silhouette of Xi Jiu Er''s body, concealed by the moonlight, merged with the darkness of night as she climbed up the side of the roof.


    Before Xi Jiu Er could cry out in pain as her body weight increased, she heard the sounds of bones shattering from all around him.


    The sound was like the wind passing through a forest, gently rustling the leaves. There were a few shallow footsteps not too far away from him.


    Xi Jiu Er tilted her head to carefully examine the sound, and discovered that the sound of footsteps seemed to be converging towards her direction. She couldn''t help but be shocked.


    Had he been discovered? Feng Qing Cheng brought people to capture him back? Could he be so unlucky?

 C418

    Xi Jiu Er really wanted to face the sky and roar, but as the sounds of footsteps became louder and louder around him, she could only stay still and remain where she was, to not change her mind was the best response.


    "Hey, why are you squatting here? It''s time to change shifts.


    Xi Jiu Er hid to the side while carrying her backpack. Suddenly, a low and deep male voice that carried a magnetism urged him to do so.


    Xi Jiu Er''s head paused for a moment, before she started to operate it quickly. It seemed that the other party considered him as one of their own, and was urging him to change shifts, which was exactly what she wanted.


    Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up and leaned forward. Although she couldn''t see her face due to the pitch black moonlight and had to bow in respect, Xi Jiu Er was still a little excited. She decided to use this method to thank the heavens and the man in front of him for her pleasant surprise.


    "I will go now, I will go now," Xi Jiu Er deliberately pretended to shout in a man''s voice, and turned to follow the rest of the people who were flying by quickly running on the rooftop.


    Carrying a bundle and carrying a baby, Xi Jiu Er was elated for once. Now that she was finally able to escape this lifeless backyard of the imperial palace, was her mood indescribable?


    Completely blinded by victory, Xi Jiu Er followed the experts on the roof who were brushing off the tiles beside him. Xi Jiu Er had forgotten that she was a person who was afraid of heights, had forgotten about the child in her arms, and that there were many annoying people and things in the palace.


    Almost all of his attention was on what he needed to do after escaping the palace.


    She had to return to the Great Beijing Dynasty as soon as possible, there was still her grandfather, and he was giving her the foolish servant girl, Liu Shui, by her side.


    After he returned, he asked his grandfather to resign and return to his hometown. He would buy over ten acres of land, set up a house, and raise a few servants.


    In the future, he would have to support his own family. He would have to teach the child to be born with both civil and martial skills, to go up the hall, and to go down to the kitchen so that in the future, no matter if it was a boy or girl, they would be able to find a marriage they liked.


    Xi Jiu Er dashed on top of the roof, but her heart had long since flown out of the palace, out of the Wind Nation, and back to the side of the nation and her family that she had missed for a long time.


    The eyes of the man running shoulder-to-shoulder with Xi Jiu Er flashed a trace of anger. Tonight, the moon was hazy, so it was impossible to see the expression of the person running beside her.


    This made the man very angry. However, just as the play started, he was about to continue. He wanted to see if she could escape from his five fingered mountain.


    The thing that he valued, even if it was this high and mighty throne, was easily obtainable by him. What was more, a mere little girl?


    As Xi Jiu Er was daydreaming, she suddenly felt a pressing chill around her. As she was wearing very little clothes to begin with, she suddenly felt half of the warmth in her body being taken away by this person.


    Xi Jiu Er was able to fall a step behind. She wanted to let the man beside him go first and allow herself to walk slowly when she heard a voice from behind him, "Why are you blocking in front? Your grandpa is still waiting to go home and eat dinner! "


    Only then did Xi Jiu Er realized that she was hiding amongst a group of experts, wanting to take advantage of the situation to get something out of the water. She immediately ran a few steps, arriving at the man''s side just now.


    There was no other way. Being surrounded by a group of experts seemed to be even more dangerous for someone with such a cold aura.


    Xi Jiu Er obediently withdrew her wandering thoughts, and carefully followed the group of black-clothed experts to climb up the roof of the palace. She also had to be on guard against anyone who might be looking at him, that''s what her heart would be doing.


    The night was dazzling. A group of men in black finally arrived at a brightly lit building and jumped down in unison.


    Xi Jiu Er purposely lagged far behind, as she quietly tried to retreat to a dark place.


    She knew about this place; it was no other than the residence of the current emperor when he was favored by his wife.


    Although Xi Jiu Er was curious about the intentions the large group of black clothed men had in coming to the place where Feng Qing Cheng was fond of beauties, she, who couldn''t even protect herself, still decided to focus all of her attention on hiding behind the crowd.


    This place was brightly lit the whole night. If he jumped down here, not to mention whether his recently grown two taels of fat would drag him down and make him fall flat on his face.


    His black clothes could still hide his face, but how could he explain this big bag of gold and silver jewelry?


    Say it was bestowed by the empress?


    Why would the Empress reward you for no reason?


    Then it was casually picked up?


    If someone asked you to pick one up, wouldn''t that be asking for a beating?


    Besides, who still has a bag of gold and silver jewelry, an antique treasure? With such strange movements, it would be strange if he didn''t let others suspect him!


    Xi Jiu Er hugged her bag and walked step by step until she reached a corner of the shadow. Just as she turned around and was about to jump, she saw several tens of battle distances, causing her legs to suddenly soften up.


    "Aiyo, mom", Xi Jiu Er spat out a sentence as she was overwhelmed with emotion. She was afraid of heights, her legs and stomach drumming even more regularly as she squatted in the corner of the roof while trembling.


    "If you still don''t go down, what are you doing, Gou Dan?"


    Xi Jiu Er trembled as she turned her head to see a tall and slender figure who was also wrapped in black. There was no light, so he couldn''t see the man''s face clearly, but she knew that this man was a little retarded.


    At a place where you can''t even see my face, how the hell did you recognize me as that bumpkin called Gou Dan?


    There were ten thousand words in Xi Jiu Er''s heart that were bawling, instigating her to connect this person''s broken nerves, telling him not to scare people in the middle of the night.


    Xi Jiu Er quivered, wanting to step forward to have a "friendly" conversation with the other party. She wanted to tell the other party that sshe was not her good friend called Gou Dan, that he was just a small bird passing by, and that everything he saw was just an illusion.


    The beauty of reality made Xi Jiu Er tear up, and in that moment, she had the urge to strangle him to death.


    It was just an impulsive action, Xi Jiu Er slowly took a few steps forward, her heart was restless as she tried to persuade the other party to quickly go wash up and sleep.


    But who would have thought that as soon as Xi Jiu Er approached the other party and her feet weren''t even steady, the other party would directly jump down from the roof as if she was a small chicken, performing a light movement on the back of Xi Jiu Er''s neck.


    Xi Jiu Er covered her eyes as she tightly hugged her bundle in her arms.


    It''s over, it''s all over, I''m definitely going to die. If I meet Feng Qing Cheng who is violently exercising with the empress dowager, it would be good if I don''t recognize him, but if I do, how can I look away?


    It was also possible that Ming''er Palace, and even the entire Wind Nation, would spread word of it. Imperial Concubine climbed up the wall in the middle of the night and coincidentally met with the Emperor and his palace maids.

 C419

    You''re back? Misunderstanding


    Such a terrifying rumor would definitely make her lose his reputation as an imperial concubine and put a layer of dog shit on top of it.


    Xi Jiu Er covered her eyes and howled in her heart, but her face was still as cold as ever. She jumped in the air with her collar grabbed by someone, and when her legs finally felt the gentleness of the earth, Xi Jiu Er exhaled deeply, straightened her body, and cleared her throat. She then pretended to be a man with a coarse voice, "Thank you, big brother?"


    The man behind him laughed heartily. "Gou Dan, you have to cure your fear of heights. When are you not running amok when you''re a guard like us?


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, with her back facing the man, she walked towards the back quickly. The face that was covered by the black robe was now covered by a black cloud.


    Xi Jiu Er and the man were the last to come down. Fortunately, the leader of the guards still hadn''t come out, so everyone quietly stayed where they were, waiting for their orders.


    Xi Jiu Er''s body was a little weak, squeezed into a group of tall and big men, and her body was instantly concealed. She could be said to be a chicken standing among cranes, and everyone was dressed in black, covering their faces, leaving behind a pair of pitch black eyeballs rolling about in the crowd.


    Everyone stood in the yard and waited for the leader of the guards to come out of the emperor''s palace. After giving instructions to everyone, they could all return home and find their own mothers.


    However, no one came out after a long time. Even so, all of these well-trained bodyguards were like quincuncial piles, as if they had been smashed to the ground by someone. Not a single one of them had moved.


    Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but admire the heroes present. If she wasn''t the prey she had been captured, she would have definitely taken off this layer of black clothing in front of him and stepped forward to brew wine and discuss about heroes.


    The night wind during winter was so strong that it caused one''s head to ache. The black clothes Xi Jiu Er was wearing was especially large, because this was a tall and big man that she had unintentionally followed. As for what that man looked like, she had never seen it clearly, so she was not particularly guilty.


    Although it was very immoral to take advantage of others taking a bath and changing clothes, how many coppers were there worth of morals these days?


    Beneath Xi Jiu Er''s wide black clothes, hid that package which was full of value.


    Xi Jiu Er tightly hugged onto the wide black clothed man, her strange actions did not attract anyone''s attention, all of their attention were placed on the brightly lit great hall.


    The door of the palace was slowly pulled open with a "peng" sound. A man, who was also completely wrapped in black clothes, walked out with his back facing a large halo of light.


    The man''s tall and slender figure appeared in front of the crowd. He scanned the crowd with his sharp eyes like the fiercest falcon on the prairie before slowly opening his voice, "Today, His Majesty the Emperor specially selected a servant from the guards. Who among you is willing?"


    The man''s voice was like a piece of ice without any impurities, emitting a trace of coldness under the sunlight. The man told everyone this horrifying news with a straight face, as if what he said was as simple as what they ate tonight.


    The moment the man''s voice fell, the crowd instantly burst into an uproar.


    "What''s going on? That brother is still conscious. Quickly come and explain it to me, I''m a little dizzy! "


    "The leader''s mother told me to go home and collect my clothes."


    "Leader, my wife specially heated up a jug of wine for me tonight. She is probably waiting for me in her room to go back and pacify me!"


    "Leader, I want some convenience. Aiyo, I''ve eaten too many scallions in the afternoon. I can''t take it anymore, I have to go and pay my respects."


    A short figure flashed through the crowd. It was unknown whether or not he had run out of the city at such a fast speed.


    There was an exception. The crowd, which had previously been filled with complaints and all sorts of bizarre reasons, now began to move. Three to four groups of people emerged from the crowd and scattered like birds and beasts.


    Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth wide in disbelief, her eyes filled with shock.


    This Feng Qing Cheng actually had such a strong taste, he really didn''t understand it himself! Wait, where were the well-trained guards from before?


    Xi Jiu Er shut her mouth with much difficulty, she looked around suspiciously, and sure enough, all the beasts around him had scattered!


    The man in black nodded his head in satisfaction as he looked at the scampering crowd. This was the effect he wanted.


    His gaze turned towards Xi Jiu Er who was still standing in her original spot, "You, come here," The man casually pointed at Xi Jiu Er, and said with an ice-cold voice.


    Xi Jiu Er blankly blinked her eyes and extended her hand. She pointed at herself, as though she could not believe that she was so unfortunate to be able to run all the way to Feng Qing Cheng''s palace, feeling a bit sad, 90% worried.


    The black clothed man looked at the frail and weak figure a few steps away, impatiently nodding his head, he turned and flew towards the palace door. After walking a few steps, he felt that there were no footsteps behind him, he turned to look at Xi Jiu Er who was still at her original position, and raised her arm, "Follow."


    Xi Jiu Er swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and after quickly filtering all the escape plans she could think of, she sadly realised that she could only use this method. She could only lower her head and follow the man in black behind with her slowest speed, step by step.


    The man didn''t care about his speed when he saw that she had followed him. As long as she entered the palace, he wouldn''t have to worry about it. His Majesty would be the one to take care of the woman. He was just a messenger.


    With all his might, he lowered his head in front of him and stared at his own boots one step at a time. He decided that if he saw Feng Qing Cheng with that broken sleeve of his, he would beat the other person up quickly and then run away.


    Xi Jiu Er took out all of the military strategy books that she had read, as well as all of the schemes and tricks that she had used on the battlefield, and imagined countless of scenes that she would encounter in her mind, and memorized all of the strategies and tactics that she would use, and then continued to walk with difficulty towards the palace with each step.


    The black clothed man led Xi Jiu Er into the great hall, turned around and left. He did not report to his majesty the Emperor, nor did he give Xi Jiu Er any warning at all. Instead, he turned around and left confidently, as if Xi Jiu Er was only an item and he only needed to deliver it to his destination.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at the irresponsible black clothed man, his eyes holding a sharp knife that pierced into the back of the man as he left. Unfortunately for him, the man completely ignored the anger in Xi Jiu Er''s heart, and leisurely went to find someone to drink.


    Xi Jiu Er''s entire body was wrapped without even a crack, her bright eyes were rolling about, and there was not a single person within the palace. Even the servant girl that should have appeared to serve him, her "male pet", was not present.


    Xi Jiu Er tiptoed, looked left and right, looking right and left, standing on tiptoe, with one hand holding the pearl curtain in her other hand and the other hand holding it lightly, moved closer to it with her right eye, while her black eyes swept up and down the entire hall.

 C420

    There didn''t seem to be anyone in this palace, it just so happened that he could stroll around and sneak out.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned forward, and leant against the wall, wanting to walk out.


    "Why aren''t you coming in?"


    Suddenly, an imposing male voice came out from the empty palace. Before Xi Jiu Er could even take a step, he was stopped in place by the voice.


    "Why do you need me to serve you?"


    Xi Jiu Er was naturally able to hear that this man was the Wind Nation''s Emperor, Feng Qing Cheng. Being frozen in place by Feng Qing Cheng''s ice-cold voice, he struggled to twist his body and looked towards the inner hall.


    "Your Majesty, this lowly one was the one who accidentally walked through the wrong entrance just now, so I''m not the person Your Majesty is looking for," Xi Jiu Er took a deep breath, his coarse voice disguising the man''s voice as he tried his best to feign a trembling fear in his voice.


    "Oh? Then why are you wearing my night clothes? Could it be? You are an assassin? " Feng Qing Cheng slowly walked out of the inner hall. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s back to him in the hall, the corner of her mouth curled up into a cold smile. She gently spat out the word "assassin", forcing the other party to turn around.


    Xi Jiu Er stood there trembling in fear, not because she was afraid that Feng Qing Cheng would see her like this, but because if she caught him, the experts who were monitoring her surroundings would be even more packed together. At that time, it would not be so easy for her to escape from this Deep Palace.


    Even if he didn''t turn around, how could Xi Jiu Er feel a bone-piercing cold air slowly approaching him? Compared to angering Feng Qing Cheng, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was better to obediently obey the other party for the moment.


    Just as Feng Qing Cheng was a step away, Xi Jiu Er swiftly lowered her head, turned around, and fiercely kneeled onto the hard marble floor.


    The pain that spread throughout Xi Jiu Er''s entire body due to her knees trembled slightly, and she immediately kowtowed.


    "Just now, your subordinate ¡­"


    "How was it just now?"


    "Just now, your subordinate was looking for your majesty to see if your majesty is conducting a strenuous exercise. I thought that if your subordinate is busy, it wouldn''t be convenient to disturb you, so I left on my own accord."


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed as he looked at the respectful Xi Jiu Er lying on the ground. Seeing her unintentionally shiver, he thought he had scared her and immediately got up to help her.


    Xi Jiu Er felt a wave of coldness coming straight at him, she guessed that Feng Qing Cheng was not satisfied with his excuse, and immediately knocked his head on the marble floor, but who knew that he would not have a good grasp of it, and a crisp sound of his forehead hitting the floor, could be heard for a long time in the empty hall.


    Xi Jiu Er screamed out in pain, "Ouch!", but she didn''t expect Feng Qing Cheng, who was leaning over to help her up, to "puchi", as he laughed out loud.


    Feng Qing Cheng realized that he had failed, and immediately straightened his body, ignoring Xi Jiu Er who was on the ground, he casually found a sandalwood chair and sat down.


    In the empty hall, apart from the crackling sounds made by the occasional spark that jumped from the candlestick, there was only the soft breathing of the two people in the silent hall, who had sunk into a strange atmosphere.


    Feng Qing Cheng lifted the teacup that was on the table and leisurely opened the cup of tea. He lightly sipped on it and continued, seemingly not caring at all, "Does she want to tell you why she is here tonight?"


    Xi Jiu Er endured the pain in her head and replied intermittently in a low voice, "Reporting to your majesty, the leader said ¡­ Speaking of today... To serve... "Serving Your Majesty to sleep!"


    "Oh? Are you willing? " Feng Qing Cheng twisted and turned with a tone full of meaning, his well-defined fingers rhythmically tapping on the edge of the table.


    Xi Jiu Er actually wanted to shout at Feng Qing Cheng, what the hell! You''re a broken sleeve, why are you still imprisoning me in this lousy palace? There are so many men in the world, if you wanted more, it would be a piece of cake!


    You just can''t bear to see me so carefree and happy? You just have to leave me alone in this empty room. Looking at the girls around you, it''s hard to say if they are male or female.


    Xi Jiu Er frowned, trying her best to sound perfect, "Reporting to Your Majesty? Whether this subordinate is willing or not is not important. The most important thing is that His Majesty is satisfied with it! "


    It was not that she did not want to resist, but she was well aware of Feng Qing Cheng''s capabilities. Just by relying on her flowery body, she was unable to subdue him.


    A man under the eaves can only bow his head. Since you want me to sleep with you? This Miss will serve you well.


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his eyebrows. He was actually surprised by Xi Jiu Er''s reaction.


    "Then let''s go in," said Feng Qing Cheng as he stood up and walked towards the inner hall.


    Xi Jiu Er paid her respects to all eighteen generations of Feng Qing Cheng''s ancestors in her heart, then barely managed to support her knees as she limped and walked over.


    secretly rolled his eyes, and thought that the Emperor''s extravagant and extravagant ways were indeed worth a lot of money.


    Feng Qing Cheng walked straight to the wide clothes screen and stretched out his arms. He stood with his back facing towards Xi Jiu Er.


    "What is it? You want me to teach you how to undress? "


    Feng Qing Cheng felt that there was no one around and turned to look at Xi Jiu Er. His cold voice made the temperature of the Inner Palace drop a few degrees.


    Xi Jiu Er faced the tall and straight body in front of him and looked at it angrily. Of course, when the other party turned her head when she felt her burning gaze, she saw Xi Jiu Er pretended to be extremely respectful as she extended her hand out.


    Xi Jiu Er stretched out a claw that slowly came out from His Majesty''s armpit, yet her other hand remained unmoved. Such a strange action had all entered Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes.


    "What is it? That hand of yours can''t move? "


    Xi Jiu Er was startled for a moment, and immediately started to shake like a rattle drum. It was as though she was not behind Feng Qing Cheng, and was just hugging him tightly.


    "Speak," the tall and big figure in front of him completely shrouded Xi Jiu Er in shadow. The man did not seem to receive the expected response, and a trace of impatience began to appear in his voice.


    Xi Jiu Er carefully swallowed her saliva, and submissively replied: "Your subordinate''s other hand ¡­ Eyebrows... We just suffered some minor injuries, so we can''t stretch our hand out to help His Majesty take off his clothes. "


    Feng Qing Cheng pursed his lips, instantly staring at the wide dragon bed in front of him, and said: "You can take off your clothes and go bed, I''ll do it myself."


    The scene that Feng Qing Cheng was singing, was all about hiding in the shadows to enjoy Xi Jiu Er''s reaction. Xi Jiu Er, who was kept in the dark, thought that she could really escape her opponent''s grasp.

 C421

    , who had been following beside her throughout the entire process, was furious. He thought that the other party was thinking about something terrible and wanted to rush up and drag her back several times. However, the last bit of reason in his mind held him back.


    He couldn''t help but accept the fat meat that he had brought to his doorstep.


    Xi Jiu Er was stunned, her mind unable to process the situation. Judging from her tone, was the other party really planning on spoiling her "male pet"? In the past, Xi Jiu Er had also heard of those things between males before, but when she truly brought this kind of thing in front of him, Xi Jiu Er felt that she was unable to take it anymore.


    Feng Qing Cheng felt the person in front of her tremble visibly for a moment, her tender and white hands stayed in the air blankly, as though what she had just said was truly inconceivable.


    The two of them just stood there in a deadlock. Feng Qing Cheng did not urge her and only took advantage of the moment when the other party was distracted to turn around and grab the black cloth from Xi Jiu Er''s face.


    Xi Jiu Er was shocked by this strange action for a moment. She then remembered the situation she was in right now and touched her face, staring at this temperamental man with wide eyes.


    Feng Qing Cheng sneered, "Our Imperial Concubine is in quite a good mood. Is this attire to give us a surprise? Or have you not seen me in a long time? You want to use this method to attract real attention, seems like I''m fond of you? "


    Within the inner hall, an ambiguous atmosphere surrounded the two of them.


    Xi Jiu Er regained her senses, and pushed Feng Qing Cheng who was intentionally spitting hot air to tease him away, and bellowed with a displeased tone: "Feng Qing Cheng, are you sick? Don''t tell me you don''t know. "


    With things having progressed to this point, if Xi Jiu Er still foolishly believed that Feng Qing Cheng had unintentionally "recruited" her to sleep with him, then her experience all these years was truly a waste.


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his eyebrows, without bothering to explain anything, he stared straight at Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er caught a hint of danger from behind the other party''s eyes and did not intend to continue questioning him. She reached out and hugged the coiled up thing in her chest, preparing to scamper her way and run away.


    The Heavens never liked to fulfill other people''s dreams. Xi Jiu Er was a child abandoned by the Heavens.


    Xi Jiu Er''s attempt to escape had all come into Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes, she could only watch as he jumped past Xi Jiu Er''s head and landed in front of her easily. Xi Jiu Er looked at the strange thing that landed in front of him in a flash, and was about to jump out from the side of the thing.


    However, she had overestimated her own martial arts, and had also underestimated Feng Qing Cheng''s methods.


    He looked at Xi Jiu Er who was about to slip away like a loach, and let her go the moment he let her go.


    Xi Jiu Er had just crossed the last threshold of the palace door and was about to cheer for her freedom when a sentence slowly floated up from behind her, making her instantly feel as if she was struck by lightning in the sky.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at the figure a few steps away that was frozen in place by his words, and then continued to increase the weight, "If you leave now, then. I will immediately send someone to the palace to capture her and execute her on the palace''s tower. I will let you see the life that was lost because of your selfishness. "


    Xi Jiu Er couldn''t believe that this man would use such a cruel method to continue imprisoning him in that palm-sized inner court.


    Dong Zhu was her personal servant, and had been sent to the palace several days ago. She thought that Feng Qing Cheng had simply borrowed a servant from the palace, but she never expected that Feng Qing Cheng would actually use this method to trap him when he was about to leave the palace.


    It was really a trick, to do anything.


    According to Xi Jiu Er''s understanding of Feng Qing Cheng, as long as this man caught a hold of the other party''s weakness, he would be exceptionally cruel. If the other party were to know that he was afraid of Dong Zhu executing Dong Zhu at this moment, the other party would definitely step on his nose, and perhaps open his mouth wide.


    Xi Jiu Er turned around, and her expression was covered with a layer of ice that could be used to attack him, "What exactly do you want? Now that you have imprisoned me in this deep palace compound, have you thought for me? "


    When Feng Qing Cheng heard this, he frowned and stared at Xi Jiu Er. He did not think that the other party''s reply was not to punish Dong Zhu, but to question him in an extremely unfriendly tone.


    "So what if This Emperor imprisons you?" "You are just a drop of water in my harem''s three thousand beauties. What qualifications do you have to question me?"


    Feng Qing Cheng quickly moved closer, his right hand subconsciously grabbing onto Xi Jiu Er''s lower jaw, using all his strength to twist her face towards him, forcing her to look directly at him.


    Xi Jiu Er tried with all her might to pry open the pair of large, powerful hands that were binding him, but she had forgotten about the bundle wrapped around her chest. Without the support of his hands, she gave the ground a big hug and kiss.


    "Pa!" A crisp sound of something being broken could be heard from the bundle on the ground. The two men looked at each other in hatred and turned to look at the black bundle on the ground.


    Xi Jiu Er watched as her protective items fell beside the two people''s feet. Suddenly, she heard the sound of a crow flying overhead.


    "Oh? Imperial Concubine, are you planning to pawn these bestowal items? "I''ve forgotten that you''re still full of zest. I expected that once you leave the palace, you''ll only end up on the streets!"


    Feng Qing Cheng scoffed, causing Xi Jiu Er to glare at him in anger, "So what? You gave me these, why can''t I take them with me? "


    Feng Qing Cheng reached out his hand and caressed Xi Jiu Er''s face in an ambiguous manner, the mocking tone in his voice was hard to conceal, "These were all bestowed to our Imperial Concubine by us, on what basis are you taking them away?"


    Xi Jiu Er was momentarily at a loss for words. That was right, from the beginning to the end, she had never thought of becoming Feng Qing Cheng''s concubine, nor did she think of protecting the sky the size of her palm for her entire life, until it turned to dust, or even after death, she might not even be able to return to her homeland.


    To her, this was the same as forcing a fish out of the water and opening the peony for the winter. It was impossible, and she was not willing to do it.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little dejected, but seeing that the other party was obviously full of satisfaction, her entire body brimmed with the arrogance of a predator capturing his prey.


    "No matter what, I am definitely going to escape from this place. Even if you tie me up in front of you, and keep an eye on me for twelve hours a day, don''t even think about me nodding your head. In this life, I, Xi Jiu Er, will work hard with you, Feng Qing Cheng."


    Xi Jiu Er roared furiously, not allowing any of Feng Qing Cheng''s expression to ripple.


    Feng Qing Cheng stared at the kitten in front of her that looked like it was about to explode from anger, and her mood suddenly became extremely cheerful. When she said that she wanted to spend her entire life with him, could it be that she was willing to entangle with him for her entire life, even if it was not because of love?

 C422

    As he thought about it, Feng Qing Cheng''s underling''s strength also couldn''t help but decrease by a lot. Using this opportunity, Xi Jiu Er twisted his neck and broke free of the other party''s restraints.


    After retreating quite a few times, Xi Jiu Er finally bent over and coughed nonstop. Just now, she had used too much force to grip her lower jaw and had even tied her throat. The suffocating feeling made Xi Jiu Er feel like she was about to drown.


    "Choose whether Dong Zhu lives or dies."


    Feng Qing Cheng brought up the matter again, he actually wanted to see if this woman was willing to spend her entire life to save a mere maid.


    Both of Xi Jiu Er''s hands supported her knees, and with a heart wrenching cough, she took a long time to get used to the speed of air entering her lungs through her nose, which made him cough almost as fast, and just as the air was flowing smoothly, Xi Jiu Er suddenly approached Feng Qing Cheng.


    "I''m willing to stay behind when she''s alive, but Feng Qing Cheng, you better remember this, even if you want to keep me here, you better not leave anything behind. To me, you are just someone who has gone through thick and thin, that''s all."


    After Xi Jiu Er finished speaking, he swiftly turned around and left, leaving behind a bundle wrapped with shattered treasures and antiques, and a man who made him feel at a loss.


    Xi Jiu Er braved the cold wind and walked along the brightly lit path while wrapped in a thin layer of Ye Xing Yi. Hanging everywhere under the eaves of the house, she received a large lantern with gold inlay.


    After messing around for the whole night, they were almost at the ring-hour s by now. There was a trace of grey that gradually stained the sky, causing Xi Jiu Er to feel hungry and tired.


    Ever since he became pregnant, his appetite seemed to have become even better, apart from the oddity of his daily taste. He would have to eat every few hours.


    Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to think about anything else. Fortunately, the palace she was in was not too far away from here.


    The tail that was following him the whole way kept on following him. Only when he was sure that he had returned to the palace, did he hide in a corner.


    Xi Jiu Er glanced at the shadows behind him from the corner of her eyes, turned around and picked up her black clothes, then stepped into the great hall.


    However, unexpectedly, everyone in the hall had already gathered together, as if they had already known that Xi Jiu Er would appear at this time.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the room full of eunuchs and maids, and she understood in her heart that if there wasn''t a traitor among them, it would be absolutely impossible for them to know her current whereabouts.


    The person she suspected the most was naturally his personal maid, Wan Yun. He had immediately told her of his plan and fell into Feng Qing Cheng''s trap the moment he stepped out of the room.


    Xi Jiu Er silently moved past the crowd and headed back to the inner hall to rest. The people around him all knelt down and shouted together, "I beg Imperial Concubine to spare our lives!"


    Xi Jiu Er frowned suspiciously, and watched coldly from the sidelines. She subconsciously told her that someone was scheming something behind her back.


    All the people kneeling on the ground knelt down on all fours, pretending to be frightened. Only Wan Yun raised her head with a dull expression and her eyes were filled with alienation and indifference.


    "I beg you, Imperial Concubine, to no longer take the initiative to flee the Imperial Palace.


    The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s eyes twitched as she looked at her coldly. After a long while, he finally replied, "If I really have to think of a way to escape from this place, how can you tolerate me?"


    Wan Yun knelt on the ground and bowed deeply. His face no longer had its usual cheerful and lively expression; instead, it was replaced with a cold and distant look, as if she had never been like the way she was before.


    Wan Yun slowly spoke out, "Then Dong Zhu''s life was caused by Imperial Concubine''s death."


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er paused, she mulled over the words for awhile. After a moment, she understood, these feelings were with another person who was using Dong Zhu''s life to threaten him, how could she not be angry? If two people, no, a bunch of people, threatened him within a day, it would be impossible to say whether she was angry or not.


    Xi Jiu Er shot forward like an arrow, and "pa", a resounding slap fiercely landed on Wan Yun''s face. Her face was dark clouds, and she could not even restrain herself from venting all of her anger for the entire night.


    "I knew that you were the one who leaked my plan of escaping the palace to Feng Qing Cheng, but today you have revealed your true colors, and I''m afraid that you already know that I will return, what about it? You want to use the person I care most to threaten me? You are just like your master, shameless! "


    Xi Jiu Er directed all of the anger in her heart towards this, one word at a time. Amongst the women who had been lurking by her side for many days, she hated others betraying her the most, furthermore, she was Xi Jiu Er''s trusted aide, so she wanted to treat him with sincerity.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t know how much strength she had just used; she could only see that after her palm landed, half of Wan Yun''s beautiful face had swollen up, and traces of blood could be faintly seen from the corner of her mouth.


    Wan Yun lowered his head, lowered her gaze, and deeply buried his head. She concealed the malicious anger deep within her eyes, and said with a still cool voice, "Imperial Concubine will teach you a lesson, but only Imperial Concubine will have a master."


    In other words, Xi Jiu Er was seeking her own humiliation.


    As for what kind of woman Xi Jiu Er was, how could she not understand the disrespect and hatred in the other party''s words? At this moment, they had already calmed down quite a bit, and pretended that she hadn''t heard the other party''s ridicule.


    The entire room of terrified maids and eunuchs were scared stiff. They had never seen Xi Jiu Er this angry before, the way she treated others was always gentle, sometimes cold and aloof, but they never thought that cold and indifferent people would actually have such terrifying outbursts of temper.


    Originally, everyone had only followed Wan Yun here, and sincerely begged Xi Jiu Er not to leave the palace, in order to protect their lives.


    Wan Yun told everyone that today, the Imperial Concubine wanted to escape the Imperial Palace, but the emperor was forced to stay behind using Dong Zhu''s life as a threat. The Imperial Concubine was forced to stay, and everyone was afraid that one day, she would truly disappear.


    However, they did not expect to almost offend the Imperial Concubine. Everyone touched their chests to soothe their trembling little hearts.


    Xi Jiu Er returned to the Inner Palace gloomily, and after she climbed onto the bed, she felt that it was only when she was alone, that she had to call for the maid to cook food for him, and then fell into a deep sleep.


    The days passed by little by little as Xi Jiu Er''s abdomen continued to swell.


    In the blink of an eye, the coldest days passed. As spring gradually warmed up, rumors spread that the emperor was about to fill in a second wife for the imperial harem.


    It seemed that she was the daughter of His Majesty the Emperor''s uncle, the King Xiang. She was called Feng Jin Se, and upon hearing that she was extremely beautiful, comparable to the Empress herself.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned on the bed, leaned her ear against the curtain and listened to the two little servant girls whispering to each other, discussing the first gossip in the past few days.


    Xi Jiu Er started to fall into a deep sleep in the spring. After having lunch at noon, she went to the Inner Palace to rest and after sleeping for an unknown period of time, she heard the two female attendants who had just transferred over to the other side of the hall discussing this matter in a low voice.


    Actually, Xi Jiu Er had seen this Feng Jin Se before as well and had forgotten where she had met her. However, her subconscious told him that this woman must have met him once.

 C423

    Because of her warm and watery personality, a cold person like Xi Jiu Er would feel 30% intimate and 70% protective of her desires.


    These were not the things that left the deepest impression on her. What left the deepest impression was the natural birthmark of a peach blossom in the corner of the woman''s eyes.


    This was the first time the woman gave Xi Jiu Er such a clear and friendly impression.


    "Ha!" It''s finally filling the harem, isn''t it? "In the end, a concubine is still only a concubine." Xi Jiu Er reached out to touch that beautiful tattoo, and a faint stabbing pain appeared in her heart.


    The sunlight outside was especially warm, and after sneaking in, a large portion of it stopped on Xi Jiu Er''s spotlessly white face, giving some warmth to her originally cold face.


    Some things were destined to be buried in the depths of one''s heart and no one could tell them. Some people were destined to stay in front of other people''s beds and wipe their eyebrows and makeup, and they were destined to just be passersby. Even if they did appear in a glorious manner, they would only end up being lost in time.


    Xi Jiu Er lay on the side on the bed, staring at the yellow light on the ground, she was momentarily at a loss.


    Would he really have to wait here and watch him bring in another woman before leaving willingly?


    [What am I reluctant to part with in such a big and spacious place?]


    Xi Jiu Er''s hands that were caressing the tattoo slightly trembled, a teardrop lightly hung on her eyelashes, sparkling and translucent like a rare treasure that had fallen from the sky.


    "Help me up, I want to go out and bask in the sunlight," Xi Jiu Er said to the two maids outside the great hall as he slowly propped himself up.


    The sound of footsteps could be heard outside the hall, gradually becoming clearer and clearer. A bare hand gently lifted the crystal curtain, and a young girl dressed in white hurried in with small steps. Behind her, a woman who seemed to be one or two years older than her entered.


    "Imperial Concubine, this servant didn''t hear it clearly just now. I came late, please forgive me, Empress!" The young lady folded her sleeves and knelt on the ground, her voice clearly filled with fear and terror.


    The woman behind the young girl followed suit and knelt down as well.


    Since the last time Xi Jiu Er accidentally misunderstood the maid Wan Yun, she did not trust anyone in the palace anymore. Even though she treated the maids in the palace even more generously than before, she revealed estrangement and indifference at every turn. Usually, as long as she was not involved in the ruckus and had to personally step in, she would basically just open her eyes and follow them out.


    It was also because after that incident, Xi Jiu Er specially came to''s side to look for the Chief Eunuch, requesting them to change out of the maids and eunuchs that were by his side.


    The Chief Eunuch did not dare to disobey. He would follow beside the Emperor and hear the name of the Imperial Concubine almost every day. Sometimes he would hear it from others, and sometimes he would hear it from the Emperor.


    However, without exception, His Majesty the Emperor would always be cautious about the various details of the Imperial Concubine, even going as far as asking about its daily life, and would even remind him repeatedly and meticulously.


    As a Chief Eunuch who had lived in the palace for a long time, if he still could not see through the Emperor''s intentions, then all these decades of observation would have been a waste.


    The Chief Eunuch replied respectfully and left the hall. A few days later, he personally trained all the newcomers and brought them over for Xi Jiu Er to choose from.


    Xi Jiu Er could naturally see through her thoughts, it was just that she could not understand why such an unfavoured "Imperial Concubine", which was no different from being beaten up into a cold palace, could actually cause a big shot beside Feng Qing Cheng to curry favor with him, it was quite shocking.


    Xi Jiu Er was very satisfied with the new batch of people that followed. Other than a few young girls who liked to hide at the side and chat about the Ancient Palace and the rumors of the martial arts world, the palace maids and eunuchs were all very reserved and respectful, treating this Imperial Concubine with great care.


    Xi Jiu Er could not help but exclaim at how the Chief Eunuch lecturer was able to cause others to respect him.


    Xi Jiu Er stood up and put the furnace in his hand to the side, then casually raised his hand, signaling the two of them to stand up.


    The young lady''s voice was clear and bright like the sound of a mountain stream flowing Liu Shui, and also like a melodious bell used by travelers on their journey in the desert, "Does Imperial Concubine need me to finish making the Silver Ear Lotus Seed Soup?"


    Xi Jiu Er''s taste had a sudden change today. A few days ago, she was especially passionate, but today, she suddenly started to like the sweet food. She especially liked the Silver Ear Lotus Seed Soup made by the girl dressed in white clothes palace.


    "No need, I ate enough just now. It''s still stored in my stomach."


    Xi Jiu Er lazily lifted her hand to cover her lips, and slowly yawned, getting up to allow people to change.


    Xi Jiu Er realized that ever since she had come to Wind Nation, the weather had been clear and bright for six to seven days. It was as if she had brought warmth to this country which was famous for its cold winter weather because of him.


    Xi Jiu Er still liked to lean on the hundred-year-old pine tree and read books for the first time in order to cook tea.


    Xi Jiu Er got a special pardon from Feng Qing Cheng, and released all of the maids and eunuchs who were originally serving him out of the palace. She even gave them quite a bit of silver as a form of entanglement, causing everyone to kowtow one by one to express their gratitude.


    She had originally thought that everyone would be released from the palace, until the second day, when Chief Eunuch came to her palace and specifically called Wan Yun to the imperial study. What Xi Jiu Er remembered most was that when she left, there was pride and arrogance in his eyes that was hard to describe, as if she wanted to demonstrate this method to her.


    The truth proved that this kind of demonstration was effective, because after that day, Wan Yun had never returned. Naturally, Xi Jiu Er did not mind as well.


    Just out of curiosity, or perhaps it was out of unimaginable, that Feng Qing Cheng had dealt with this woman, but on the second day, there was some news. His Majesty the Emperor stayed the entire night in the imperial study, and did not go anywhere.


    He didn''t know when this woman caught the attention of the Emperor and took her away in front of Xi Jiu Er. Hence, for the next three days, Xi Jiu Er waited leisurely for the Emperor to give him an order to kick him out of the palace, giving him this huge and empty palace to the new owner.


    He hoped wholeheartedly that Wan Yun''s happiness would be exchanged for her freedom. This kind of house that was like an empty shell, this husband that was like an empty shell, he didn''t care about it, even if he was injured beyond recognition.

 C424

    The days slowly slipped away in Xi Jiu Er''s anticipation. The quiet palace was just as quiet, and the boring days were also just as boring.


    Time had told Xi Jiu Er that her beautiful wish had failed, and the days when she did not have any hope began to feel a little sad. All day long, besides eating, she would also eat.


    Right now, he was too lazy to move at all. Sometimes, he would stay on the bed for an entire day. Other than occasionally having the little girls tell him stories about the rooms to relieve his boredom, he spent most of his time on ancient books and books.


    Xi Jiu Er was not the type of person to be lazy in the first place. She would dance with sabers and sticks, do a few flowery moves, or find a secluded place to plant flowers and hoe grass.


    Now, the child''s stomach was becoming more and more obvious. His stomach had also bulged quite a bit. It was even difficult for him to occasionally bend over, let alone play with swords, spears, and sticks.


    The afternoon sun was getting warmer, and Xi Jiu Er''s hand that was holding the book uncontrollably fell down, rolling on the ground with a "pa" sound.


    At the same time, he also successfully woke her up. Under the sunlight, her entire body felt numb, as if all her bones and limbs had been soaked in butter for a whole round. It was hard to describe how comfortable she felt, which immediately caused Xi Jiu Er, who had already had her afternoon nap, to feel a little sleepy.


    Xi Jiu Er rested a hand on her forehead and raised her head to look at the fine cracks on the lush branches where bits of sunlight was sprinkling down. Bright yellow points of light jumped about on the branches, like many fairies playing in the cracks of the branches.


    Just as he was thinking about it, Xi Jiu Er vaguely saw a goose yellow light up beside him.


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look at a smiling girl. Her expression was intimate, and her white and warm face seemed to have a spiritual feeling to it from the bottom of her heart.


    Xi Jiu Er saw an unfamiliar woman appear beside him without a sound, and felt that she was extremely familiar with him at the moment. At the same time, she felt that lying on the bed to receive guests was extremely rude.


    The lady could roughly guess what Xi Jiu Er was thinking, and immediately went forward to help her up, the clear and crisp sounds like water flowing from a jade ring lightly touching someone.


    "Elder sister, you have to be careful," the woman''s voice carried a trace of moisture and gently floated into everyone''s ears.


    Xi Jiu Er was confused by her words, "Big sister". She stared at her for a long time before realizing who she was.


    The lady nodded with a smile, and the maidservant behind her helped her to sit on the sandalwood chair opposite Xi Jiu Er.


    As Xi Jiu Er looked at this very comfortable woman in front of him, the corners of her mouth couldn''t help but curl up, "When did little sister enter the imperial city?"


    Feng Jin Se pursed her lips, her smile warm. "Three or four years ago, after returning, I followed royal father to attend a banquet with a few ministers, and then gathered at a few sisters'' homes. Only today did I have the time to clean up my sister for a while."


    Xi Jiu Er continued to laugh, "Lord King Xiang, it''s Zhuge, His Majesty the Emperor''s right-hand man, naturally he''s busy. Since it''s rare for you to come to my place today, why not have a taste of my palace''s chef''s cooking? Shall I get someone to send you home tonight? "


    Although Xi Jiu Er had only met her once, she surprisingly liked this girl who was as intelligent as water, and seemed to have an immortal aura that was untainted by the heavens and earth.


    Feng Jin Se nodded and agreed, "Then I''ll be troubling elder sister."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed as she shook her head, then called for the servants to bring out the modern pastries that the palace had prepared.


    "Taste this tea. I specially took this tea from the morning dew on the Winter La Plum, and made it from my own brewed La Plum Blossom Tea." Xi Jiu Er called over a maid and brought out the tea making tools, and also asked his to make the winter flower tea one by one.


    The two of them sat together, occasionally smiling as they discussed whether or not today''s scented tea should be flavored with a hawthorn. Only then would the taste be better.


    At times, they would discuss the local customs and practices of the Wind Nation and himself, and at other times, they would talk about what had happened to them in the past few years.


    The two chatted merrily until the sun set. Only then did they return to the palace to enjoy the evening meal.


    The two of them were extremely happy at the banquet, until an unexpected guest arrived to interrupt their interest.


    Xi Jiu Er saw that Feng Qing Cheng, who had suddenly appeared outside the palace gate and was not allowed to be announced, unconsciously frowned, as though when he was eating a plate of delicious food, he suddenly pulled out a dead fly from inside, and before he could even swallow the food, he stood there in a daze, unable to go up or go down, he scratched his ears and face in pain.


    Xi Jiu Er saw this "fly" leisurely sitting next to him, and then saw "fly" giving him food as if there was no one around, as if she was really in love with it.


    Feng Jin Se who was at the side covered his face and laughed, "My older cousin is really not talented, there is even a living person sitting here! Such an expression of love, so how can we, the loners, face it? "


    After being teased by Feng Jin Se, Xi Jiu Er''s face unconsciously flushed. She tried her best to suppress the blush on her face, and pretended to be indifferent as she buried her head in food.


    Feng Qing Cheng was in a rare good mood, he extended his hand and also gave her a pair of chopsticks, "Here, don''t say that your cousin is biased."


    Feng Jin Se''s smile became even wider, and he picked up the half of the chicken wing that his cousin had just left on the plate and placed it into Xi Jiu Er''s plate.


    "Cousin doesn''t dare to do that. It''s better to let sister-in-law enjoy it."


    Xi Jiu Er held onto half of her scarlet red hair, and glared at her. "Hey, your majesty the Emperor, your cousin gave you some food, eat it!"


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his eyebrows, a smile that could not be hidden in his eyes.


    "Since Madame has let me eat it, how about I accept?" That "very good" dragged out an extremely ambiguous tone, causing Xi Jiu Er to suddenly feel that the other side of her face was also burning.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little embarrassed as she covered her face. She clearly had a strange hatred towards this person, but she was broken through with just a few words.


    The two of them looked at Xi Jiu Er''s shy appearance, and after they looked at each other in tacit understanding, Feng Qing Cheng suddenly ordered them coldly, "All of you go down, tell her to send people to stand guard outside, and do not let anyone near."


    Xi Jiu Er watched Chief Eunuch''s leaving figure from between her fingers, then turned to look at Feng Qing Cheng, her gaze jumping towards her face, his face at a loss.


    Pointing at Feng Jin Se, he spoke out, "Did you hear that she is going to marry me in a few days?"


    Xi Jiu Er was stunned when she heard it. She did not expect Feng Qing Cheng to publicly explain the situation, and the two people involved were actually both smiling.


    If it was said that she unintentionally forgot that Feng Jin Se was going to marry Feng Qing Cheng today, then was she really unable to understand the current situation?

 C425

    Who is acting?


    Could it be that Feng Qing Cheng was afraid that he would be disliked if Feng Jin Se married into the palace, so he made her specially come to try to get closer to him? Or did he want to do it himself to maintain the sisterhood between them?


    Xi Jiu Er blinked her eyes blankly, and shifted her gaze back and forth between the two of them. She wanted to guess a little from their expressions.


    In the end, Feng Jin Se could no longer stand the harmless look her sister-in-law had, so she continued to smile, "Sister-in-law, don''t worry, I am just helping my cousin act a play."


    Xi Jiu Er was even more at a loss now. To whom? Me?


    Feng Qing Cheng saw that her face was covered with mist and immediately explained, "I specially invited Jinsi to act out with me. The Minister had asked us to fill up the harem all day long, so we found Jinsi."


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes instantly lit up, "Are you all putting on an act?"


    Feng Qing Cheng nodded in satisfaction.


    Xi Jiu Er was even more suspicious now, if they were playing tricks, with whom should they play, as if the Emperor didn''t need to tell him?


    Xi Jiu Er secretly cursed, but she couldn''t say it out in front of Feng Jin Se, so she could only hold it in.


    Feng Jin Se happily finished his dinner in Xi Jiu Er''s palace, then sent a guard to escort her back while he himself stayed behind.


    After eating dinner, Xi Jiu Er decided to bathe and change his clothes. Her body was especially heavy, and when she turned her head to instruct the servant girl to go ahead and smoke his clothes, she suddenly saw His Majesty the emperor who was sitting in front drinking tea.


    "Your Majesty, are you still not returning to the palace?" Xi Jiu Er then shouted out the word "Your Majesty".


    Hearing that, Feng Qing Cheng stared at her, "Isn''t this our palace?"


    Xi Jiu Er pursed her lips. Indeed, it was as she had expected, this person would not go back tonight. She would just pack up her things and find a place in the side hall to spend the night.


    "Servant, put the bed in the side hall on the bed. I''ll go over later," Xi Jiu Er raised her voice and instructed the others. After receiving their reply.


    Xi Jiu Er walked out of your hall, disinclined to bother with that person, and went into the bathroom. Inside the bathroom, there was a natural hot spring that had appeared out of nowhere, and she only knew that it was discovered by her ancestor long ago when she was building the imperial palace here.


    In fact, it was only the beginning of summer, but the warmth was gradually spreading to his four limbs and bones. Xi Jiu Er let out a comfortable sigh of relief, leaned on the marble edge of the bed, and walked time and time again to pour water on his body. The entire bathroom was shrouded in fog.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were drenched in the mist as she reached out to rub it. Feeling sleepy again, she lay down on the marble floor and fell asleep.


    In his drowsiness, he felt something moving around in his hand. It was a bit itchy, so he reached out to grab the culprit. However, he didn''t know that he was held tightly in the culprit''s hand.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly lost all sleep, as she could vaguely see a male with her bare upper body playing with the thing in his hand, which was Xi Jiu Er''s beautiful hands.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, when did you come in?" Xi Jiu Er looked carefully, the one holding her hand was no other than the emperor of the Wind Nation, Feng Qing Cheng.


    Hearing Xi Jiu Er''s raised voice, Feng Qing Cheng pulled out a hand to pick at his ear, "Be quiet, I can hear you."


    Xi Jiu Er unconsciously looked down along his bare chest, and a discordant image appeared in front of her eyes. In an instant, the blush on her ears spread all the way to her neck and she immediately cried out, diving into the hot spring. She intended to stay far away from this abnormal emperor. )


    Who knew that before he could even move, his ankle was being pulled from behind. Xi Jiu Er was enraged and turned to speak, but then a stream of hot water rushed into her throat. It was only after splashing around a few times that it was fished out of the water by Feng Qing Cheng''s mouth with a smile.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at the patch of wheat colored skin in front of her, and a special smell came out from her nose. The smell even mixed with the remaining water in her nose into a strange smell, making her sneeze uncontrollably.


    Only after he finished sneezing did he realize the situation in front of him. He was naked in the arms of the naked Feng Qing Cheng.


    Although the two of them were husband and wife, it was still the first time they faced each other so honestly. Xi Jiu Er''s face was burning hot, and just as she wanted to struggle and jump into the water, she was held tightly in Feng Qing Cheng''s embrace.


    "What is it? "You are so impatient for me to favor you?" Feng Qing Cheng leaned over and approached Xi Jiu Er''s ear, softly uttering a few words, his lips intentionally or unintentionally rubbing against her earlobe.


    Xi Jiu Er was tickled by him as she stretched out her hand to tickle him, but there was nothing she could do at all. Feng Qing Cheng, who was hugging a soft and warm jade, naturally felt itchy in her heart as well.


    Thus, everything came to an end in a natural manner. It went without saying.


    On the second day, Xi Jiu Er got out of bed early and struggled to get herself onto the bed in the hall. However, she was unable to fall asleep.


    The spring colors from last night was charming and charming, and the hibiscus hibiscus was warm and cozy during the Spring Festival Gala. It allowed Xi Jiu Er''s white face to once again begin the exciting scene of burning hot clouds.


    Without knowing when, Xi Jiu Er woke up with a drowsy look. Looking at the empty Main Palace, he finally reacted after a long time; why did she temporarily move out of the Inner Palace.


    His face flushed red. After getting used to it, he called for a maid to inquire about the whereabouts of the emperor, and after finding out that Feng Qing Cheng had left a long time ago, he slowly got up and changed into his clothes to go to the front hall.


    After exiting the room, Xi Jiu Er found out that it was already an hour later. She hadn''t eaten for half a day, and his internal organs along with the baby''s complaints were already so hungry that they were sticking to her back.


    After hurriedly eating a meal, his body began to feel heavy again. His lower abdomen seemed to have become a lot more prominent compared to a few days ago.


    After eating, Xi Jiu Er returned to the Inner Palace to sleep, thus she stayed on the bed for the entire day.


    For the next few days, Xi Jiu Er spent most of her time on the bed, and almost immediately went to bed after eating.


    So after a few days, Xi Jiu Er was sad to find that her fat had increased by another few grams. Thus, this morning, Xi Jiu Er had leaned against the window and worried that if she continued to eat like this, wouldn''t she become a big fatty after childbirth?


    Being obese was akin to being disfigured by a woman.


    Xi Jiu Er moaned for a moment as she touched her stomach. Suddenly, she smelt a sweet and sweet smell, and then she walked out of the hall with difficulty, step by step.

 C426

    He only saw a slender figure with his back facing the maid who was currently beside him, giving instructions in a low voice. He turned his head to see Xi Jiu Er, who was standing alone by her side, being supported by the maid''s assistance in taking a step out of the hall.


    Feng Jin Se immediately went forward to catch Xi Jiu Er, and after sending the maid away, he carefully helped her to sit in front of the bed that had already been placed under the tree.


    "When did you have the time to come visit my palace today?" Xi Jiu Er smiled as he looked at Feng Jin Se, and jokingly asked.


    Feng Jin Se pointed to the box of food on the stone table, and mysteriously said, "Of course it''s for that, Sister-in-law. Do you want to try it?"


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er turned her gaze towards the red box, "Is this the reason why you came today? Just now, I smelt a refreshing fragrance in the main hall. When I came out, I saw you here. "


    Feng Jin Se was all smiles as he reached out to grab the box and opened it layer by layer. When Xi Jiu Er came closer to take a look, he realized that everything the other party had brought were all pastries and all kinds of extremely exquisite pastries.


    Feng Jin Se took them out one by one, and with all sorts of pleasing shapes, Xi Jiu Er suddenly had a big appetite, and wanted to grab a piece for himself.


    Feng Jin Se watched on from the side as Xi Jiu Er devoured her food. Seeing her smiling face, he was especially happy in his heart.


    "Sister-in-law, slow down, all of this is yours, Jinsi will not fight with you for it, servant, quickly pour a cup of tea," Feng Jin Se hurriedly ordered the maid beside him to pour tea for Xi Jiu Er as he watched Xi Jiu Er wolf down the food.


    Xi Jiu Er shook his head, with one hand still holding onto the half piece of soybean paste, the residue at the corner of her mouth continued to shake, and he immediately buried his head into it again.


    Feng Jin Se felt that this sister-in-law of his was very interesting. Sometimes she was cold, sometimes she was shy and sometimes she was cute and cute.


    Xi Jiu Er very impressively placed all the plates of pastries into her stomach, and only then was she satisfied with the tea that the maid handed him.


    "Sister-in-law''s appetite is really good!" Feng Jin Se said with a smile.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished listening, her two white ears immediately turned red. After a while, she said in embarrassment, "I don''t know why I keep wanting to eat something sweet recently, but I get hungry really quickly!"


    Feng Jin Se laughed, "Of course, sister-in-law has still got a mouth left in her stomach! "How can you be hungry?"


    Xi Jiu Er smiled, "You will become a pig if you continue eating.


    Feng Jin Se placed both of his hands on his chin, and laughed until his face was flushed red, "No harm, even if sister-in-law really becomes fat like a pig, royal brother will still not leave you."


    Xi Jiu Er was startled when she heard her, obviously not expecting her to mention Feng Qing Cheng.


    After that, Xi Jiu Er smiled, "Little sister, stop teasing big sister. Your royal brother is known to be picky, maybe someday he will be kicked out of the palace."


    Feng Jin Se waved the brocade handkerchief in his hand, smiled and stuck it onto the stone table. Xi Jiu Er looked at the young girl who was smiling without the slightest bit of image, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even more obvious.


    If they wanted to laugh, they could laugh. If they wanted to cry, they could cry. But how many people in this age could be so carefree and unrestrained? With such a genuine personality, Xi Jiu Er''s impression of Feng Jin Se became better and better.


    Seeing the girl laugh so hard that she was shaking, Fang Xing laughed. He lifted up the teapot in front of him and poured a cup of tea into the cup in front of Feng Jin Se, pushing it away, "Oh, stop laughing, after you inhale this cold air, you won''t have a stomachache anymore!"


    Feng Jin Se laughed and waved his hand, as though he was really laughing until his stomach hurt. He held the teacup that had become warm, and an uncontrollable smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, "Sister-in-law, you don''t know, but royal brother''s sincerity is all on you!"


    Xi Jiu Er laughed noncommittally, lowered her head and gently pecked a mouthful of tea.


    The two continued to chat until sunset. The afterglow slowly scattered a layer of orange on the ground as the two of them stepped into the palace.


    As usual, Feng Jin Se had dinner at her palace. Xi Jiu Er sent the eunuchs by his side to bring her back to the Duke Palace.


    In the following few days, Xi Jiu Er basically followed the life of a lazy bug, her body becoming more and more exhausted, almost to the point that other than eating, he did not take a single step out of the hall.


    He hadn''t even seen Feng Jin Se for a few days. As the only good friend he had in the palace, Xi Jiu Er had especially missed him, so he specially sent the hymen beside him to the King Xiang Palace today.


    After waiting half a day for Xi Jiu Er to fall asleep, she finally saw that the hymen had arrived late.


    "Imperial Concubine, something bad happened,", who was still in the Inner Palace and had been running around noisily, heard her anxious voice from afar.


    Xi Jiu Er turned her body, half lying and half lying, and leisurely stared at the entrance of the great hall.


    After a while, he stumbled in from outside the palace, and rushed in like an arrow, "Imperial Concubine, it''s bad."


    Xi Jiu Er signaled the palace maid by her side to pour her a cup of tea to calm her agitated emotions.


    "Imperial Concubine, today, this servant went to the King Xiang Palace to respectfully invite Princess Jinsi to the palace to have a chat with the Empress. However, I unexpectedly heard a shocking matter."


    hymen crouched on the ground, his anxious voice carrying a trace of fear.


    Xi Jiu Er faintly felt that the things she wanted to talk about were related to Feng Jin Se, and it would definitely not be a good thing.


    The hymen did not wait for Xi Jiu Er''s question and could only continue, "A few days ago, Princess Jinya and the ladies from the ministers in the imperial court went to Treading Spring, and went to a very famous peach forest in the outskirts of the city. When the few of them wanted to take advantage of the spring season, they started a competition, and a few of the Miss''s were also noble girls, so naturally there would be some private school teachers who would teach them some poems and some morals.


    hymen spoke a lot in one breath, but she did not get the point, so Xi Jiu Er did not urge her, and only indicated for her to drink a cup of tea to moisten her throat.


    After a cup of hot tea, hymen immediately spoke out with her clear and melodious voice.


    After a few Miss s finished paired up and made a few lines of poem, someone suggested that everyone play the game that you and I were looking for. The Miss s that rarely gather usually hide in the Peach Blossom Forest.


    hymen thought about it for a long time. When he was thirsty, he just drank a few cups of tea and wiped the water droplets off his mouth with his hand while gasping for breath. Then he continued to drink.


    A few Miss s were found, and were happily preparing to call Princess Jinsi to continue the next round, but there were a few people who searched the entire peach forest, and none of them were able to find her. It wasn''t until the sun had set that a few Miss s ran over to the King Xiang Palace to inform them that the King Xiang had sent all the guards of the Palace out to look for the princess. It was said that the Emperor had also sent hundreds of elite soldiers to search the city.

 C427

    Xi Jiu Er tilted her head and furrowed her brows deeply as the deep meaning in her eyes gradually surfaced.


    hymen explained everything in one breath, then bowed and left.


    Xi Jiu Er waved away the little girl beside him, standing up and walking slowly in the empty hall by himself.


    Feng Jin Se''s situation was extremely strange. Logically speaking, these wealthy and powerful Miss s would normally be surrounded by a large group of people when they went out, and would definitely have various palace guards by their sides.


    Furthermore, in this trip, there was even the right Prime Minister''s daughter, without a doubt, there were many bodyguards present, and as the princess of Wind Nation, Feng Jin Se naturally had many bodyguards by her side.


    They were all the top eunuchs and Miss s in the imperial city. Before the Spring Treading Stage Parade, they would definitely send their attendants to inform the owner of the peach forest.


    It could be said that the inside and outside of the peach forest were heavily guarded, yet Feng Jin Se, under this kind of tight protection that could only be described as airtight, was pushed away by the evil people, and even smoothly covered up his eyes and ears.


    There seemed to be a trace of strangeness in it.


    However, it was possible that someone had sneaked out from among these guards or snuck into their midst to get away from them!


    Xi Jiu Er slowly walked to the window. The peach blossoms outside were already beginning to bloom, and with the caress of the cool breeze, they did not seem as cold as the winter wind.


    Xi Jiu Er mocked herself in her heart. She could already see through such a simple and simple arrangement, let alone the scheming Emperor himself. If Feng Qing Cheng was really as hymen had said, sending a hundred of his elite soldiers to the imperial city to search, including the martial law enforcement at the city gates, then things would not be as simple as she had imagined.


    It was spring outside the door, and the autumn wind was blowing inside.


    Xi Jiu Er faintly felt that Feng Jin Se''s disappearance this time had unspeakable secrets, and this secret participant must have had Feng Qing Cheng as well. Right now, things were like dragons swimming in the clouds, he could only catch a glimpse of the tiniest of her.


    As for the safety of Feng Jin Se''s life, Xi Jiu Er was not too worried. If the assassin had passed through all these dangers just to get rid of her, then it was definitely for this person. Otherwise, it would be for her identity and the King Xiang''s manor behind her.


    If the assassin was leaving for her sake, Xi Jiu Er felt that there was no need to worry, because when Feng Jin Se was pushed away, no one found any trace of him, so it was highly likely that she had voluntarily followed that person and left.


    If it was for the King Xiang Palace behind her, that person would definitely protect her well. Who would casually throw away the life saving talisman in their hands?


    After a series of conjectures, Xi Jiu Er''s inner anxiety calmed down a little. As long as Feng Jin Se''s life was not in danger, she did not need to worry about anything else.


    For the past few days, Xi Jiu Er had sent hymen outside the palace every day to scout, and at the same time, rope in the Chief Eunuch beside Feng Qing Cheng to get some clues from him.


    He did not know if it was because of Feng Qing Cheng''s order to not let the people of the palace pry into Princess Jin Ze''s matter, but Xi Jiu Er had used a lot of methods and still couldn''t pry open Chief Eunuch''s mouth that was filled with golden teeth.


    Today was the fifth day since Feng Jin Se disappeared. As usual, Xi Jiu Er sent her servant out of the palace early in the morning to inquire about the news.


    It was funny, Feng Qing Cheng did not allow the people in the palace to uncover the news of Feng Qing Cheng''s disappearance, but regarding the matter of him sending the hymen to investigate, he turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye to it.


    Xi Jiu Er originally wanted to ask the Emperor about the progress of Feng Jin Se''s search, but without any forewarning, he got a close shave from him.


    His Majesty the Emperor sat high up on the dragon table, wearing the court uniform that he had not changed into, making him look extremely imposing. After Xi Jiu Er bowed to him unwillingly, she went straight to the point and revealed her purpose for coming here.


    He thought that the other party would definitely know what was going on and would explain everything in detail to him. He didn''t think that the truth would be that after Feng Qing Cheng heard about her goal for coming here, the fox didn''t even glance at her and had the palace maids carry her to the study room.


    Finally, at the moment the door of the imperial study was closed, he uttered a sentence.


    "If you want my favor and a bath so that you can change your clothes, I will naturally come and kiss you. If it''s anything other than this, I won''t be accompanying you."


    However, Xi Jiu Er was not one of the other concubines. When she finally regained her senses, she immediately shouted towards the entrance of the imperial study. Clamor clo.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, if you have the ability, never appear in front of me again.


    After saying that, he angrily swung his hand and pushed away the two hymen s who were trembling in fear. The hymen s were afraid that their master''s bold words just now had angered the people in the room.


    Xi Jiu Er pulled on the long skirt beneath her feet, supported herself with much difficulty on the trembling, fat waist, and stepped on the marble floor, slowly moving along the long corridor.


    In the blink of an eye, the sound of hurried footsteps from behind him arrived at his side. Xi Jiu Er glanced to the side and sure enough, it was his personal palace maids.


    hymen met her slightly angry eyes. She thought that he came here a little too late because she had angered Imperial Concubine, so she hurriedly lowered her body and stood respectfully by her side.


    Xi Jiu Er extended his hand out, signalling the two of them to support him, only then did she turn his head to the side after sensing that no one was coming to grab his hand, only to see hymen looking at him with a face full of fear, lowering his head and waiting to the side.


    "Return to the palace," Xi Jiu Er coldly spat out two words. The hymen beside him was stunned upon hearing this, and immediately recovered her senses. She respectfully bowed and held Xi Jiu Er''s claws in her hands, then took him home.


    After that, Xi Jiu Er could only send out the hymen and eunuchs who were by her side to scout around the palace every day. One time, when the hymen came back late, she coincidentally bumped into the Chief Eunuch who was about to leave to help the Emperor.


    The Chief Eunuch was indeed a sincere master, and after that, on a bright and beautiful day, he pretended to reveal this matter to the emperor Feng Qing Cheng. Unexpectedly, he received a cold snort from the emperor and there were no more words to say.


    Therefore, Chief Eunuch had to think hard about the deep meaning behind the Emperor''s cold snort. Suddenly, he thought of the Emperor''s unusual treatment of Imperial Concubine.

 C428

    He slapped his forehead and realized that the king was going to turn a blind eye. Indeed, it was better to be silent at this moment.


    After that, every day at the corridor and even in the latrine, when they met the young eunuchs of the Imperial Concubine Palace, as well as the hymen, he would see that everyone had an unfathomable appearance, as if he wanted to pass on a message.


    I have an earth-shattering secret, but I won''t tell you or tell you.


    On Xi Jiu Er''s side, she still spent her days thinking of ways to find out more about Feng Jin Se.


    After repeating this for a few days, the hymen that Xi Jiu Er sent out finally brought back some good news.


    The guard that the King Xiang sent out last night finally found the unconscious Feng Jin Se deep in the mountains. Before the guard arrived, the latter had been alone in the broken cave, deep in unconsciousness.


    After a day and night of treatment, Feng Jin Se finally woke up. The crowd asked her why she suddenly disappeared into the peach forest, and then appeared a few hundred miles away in the deep mountains.


    Feng Jin Se lied on his bed and told a shocking story.


    The beginning of the story was exactly the same as what hymen had heard, that a few eunuchs and Miss s had arranged to go to the Peach Blossom Forest to visit the spring.


    The few of them discussed and didn''t travel too far. They found a nearby place to hide and play hide and seek, the Miss s happily went to find a place to hide.


    Feng Jin Se found a peach tree that seemed to be hundreds of years old, even though there were a few dozen people who were unable to wrap it up.


    At first, Xi Jiu Er could still hear the cries and pout of the Miss girls who were nearby.


    The hundred year old peach tree that he was hiding in could almost be considered the most ostentatious peach tree in the entire forest. Furthermore, she had intentionally found a nearby hiding place in order to hide so that she could quickly find it and continue the next round of the game.


    Feng Jin Se waited under the tree for an hour, but seeing that no one came to find him, he became a little tired. He thought that perhaps the other party wanted to find the other people, then look for him again.


    Faintly sleeping, Feng Jin Se did not know how long he had slept. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a thick mist.


    looked at the strange scene in front of him, and suddenly felt scared, thinking that if a beautiful young lady in such a young age were to meet with such a situation, it would be strange if she remained calm and collected.


    Feng Jin Se anxiously wanted to pass through the thick fog and walk out of his predicament. He slowly groped his way out by himself, unlike the potholes in the morning where there was not a single blade of grass at his feet, Feng Jin Se''s heart couldn''t help but tighten.


    No matter how lifelike her wet nurse''s story was, she had always only listened to it as a story in Feng Jin Se''s heart. Occasionally, she would also be envious of the story of the scholars and foxes, and look forward to the limitless fantasies she would have regarding her future husband.


    The scene they were in was a bit similar to the one in the story where the scholar met the fox girl. Feng Jin Se thought to himself, as he was shocked by the contents of his imagination.


    Looking at the fog in front of his eyes, his surroundings was filled with an indescribable uneasiness, as though another group of demons and ghosts would rush out of the mist in the next second, Feng Jin Se nervously hugged his arms, and walked forward without direction while slightly curling his body.


    With no destination and no food in sight, Feng Jin Se panicked a little. He stopped to look around at his surroundings almost every step of the way, and even though it was useless, he calmed his anxious heart.


    After walking for an unknown amount of time, Feng Jin Se finally became a little tired. The ground was slippery and muddy, and she sat down on the ground.


    He could not see whether the sun still hung in the sky. He could only wait for Feng Jin Se to finally spin his body and slowly exit the mist. Coincidentally, there was a bright big jade plate hanging in the sky.


    Feng Jin Se''s stomach was empty. After being hungry for a whole day, he could no longer walk, so he had no mood to care about the sun or the moon in the sky.


    After walking out of the dense fog, Feng Jin Se could clearly see the path beneath his feet. It wasn''t the uneven ground of earth, but rather a bluestone slab that had been drenched in fog, and the bluestone slabs were layered over each other and extended downwards. There was a small path etched out of bluestone slabs, and the end of the path seemed to be a thatched hut.


    Feng Jin Se looked around suspiciously, it was obvious that he had never heard of a place like this before. Under the light of the moonlight, he could clearly see the grass around the green flagstones, up to his knees, swaying in the wind. Occasionally, a cricket or two would jump out from the grass, and then quickly hide behind a big tree.


    Feng Jin Se looked at the unknown but exceptionally thick and luxuriant tree beside him. It looked extremely similar to the legendary immortal tree, and could not remember what it was called. He opened his mouth slightly, but was unable to spit out a single word.


    Feng Jin Se really wanted to turn around and take a look, but she didn''t have the courage. She still remembered when she was young, her wet nurse often told her not to look back at night. Although that was a very small matter, it was still fresh in her mind.


    Feng Jin Se sniffed, the cool and refreshing night wind blowing through the mountains was not bone-chilling at all. The five viscera temple in her abdomen started to churn, and it had been a long time since she had eaten.


    Beneath the stone slab was a simple hut, and the specks of light from the stars within the hut shook Feng Jin Se a little. Maybe the owner of the hut could let him stay there for the night? Or maybe he could fill his stomach with some food? He didn''t have much to eat, just some bread and a bowl of water.


    People were like this. If they met with a little bit of warmth in a predicament, they might feel uneasy at first, then they would waver and finally, they would muster up the courage to advance forward.


    Even if he was destined to never be able to escape this strange situation, at the very least, he would be able to eat his fill before dying. At the very least, he wouldn''t fall into the path of evil spirits in the next life, right?


    With that in mind, Feng Qing Cheng bravely consoled himself for a while, then lifted her skirt to step on the wet stone slabs as she hurriedly walked down.


    As the light in the hut grew brighter and brighter, Feng Jin Se, gasping for breath, jumped down the last flight of stairs.

 C429

    Feng Jin Se''s voice carried a trace of timidness, "Excuse me, is there anyone?" The crisp sound of someone knocking on the door sounded eerily out in the quiet mountain.


    The moment the knock on the door sounded, the sound of steady, slow footsteps came from inside the door. As the footsteps drew closer, Feng Jin Se''s heart became more and more fearful.


    "Who is it?" In the instant that the door of wood was opened, a gentle and refined voice came from inside, like a circle of high-grade South Sea pearls.


    Feng Jin Se''s eyes were tightly shut, waiting for fate to give her the final judgement. However, when she heard her master''s questioning, she suddenly opened her eyes, and then fell into a long period of stupor.


    After a long time, Feng Jin Se was finally pulled back by the puzzled gaze of the man in front of her. Looking at the man, she felt a little embarrassed.


    The man doubtfully asked, "Miss, how did you enter this place?"


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, she raised her head and looked at the man, "Where is this place?"


    The man''s eyes flickered, but he ignored her and said, "Miss, at that time, if you don''t mind, why don''t you stay in the shack for the night and send me off tomorrow?"


    Feng Jin Se nodded in a daze. She was indeed hungry and thirsty, and urgently needed food and sleep to replenish her strength.


    "Then I''ll have to trouble you, Young Master."


    Feng Jin Se blessed himself gently and followed the man into the hut.


    Along the way, she lowered her head to look at the white clothes of the person in front of her. Her face was rosy like an apple. She had never thought that there would be a man even prettier than her brother.


    Just now, when she saw the man stretch out his body, he had a face as warm as jade, but also had a peerless appearance, causing her, as a woman born a woman, to think that she was inferior to him.


    The man wore a white shirt that was draped casually over his body. The belt at his waist was tied up in a crooked knot, and his cloth shoes were half-stuffed.


    Looking at the scene in front of him, he could guess that the other party had been in a hurry to open the door for him.


    The man made a bowl of noodles for her and then went to make the bed for her.


    Just like that, they spent a few days in the mountain. Feng Jin Se, who originally wanted to stay for a day before leaving, suddenly had the thought of wanting to get close to a man, so he used this as an excuse to stay for a few more days.


    During the stay, the man had practically taken over the task of cooking and washing the dishes, while he had swept the floor with water.


    A few days later, the man intentionally brought her out of the hut and into a quiet forest. The man walked ahead and Feng Qing Cheng followed behind, until there were two forks in the road in front of her. The man pointed to a flat road for her and then stood still.


    Feng Jin Se could tell that the other party had only wanted to leave her here, and had stared at him as she brushed past him. She wanted to carve this exceptional man into the depths of her heart forever.


    When she woke up, she found that she was already home.


    As Xi Jiu Er listened to Feng Jin Se, who had once again appeared in the palace, recount his strange experience, his heart shivered.


    He was silent, and his strength was strange and disordered.


    Feng Jin Se lowered his eyes and looked at the embroidered shoes on his feet. His tone was filled with deep love, which made Xi Jiu Er believe what she had just said for an instant.


    This was the first time the two of them had met since the fifth day since Feng Jin Se was found, and the moment they met, she impatiently pulled Xi Jiu Er along and told him about their fortuitous encounter.


    The two of them were still chatting about the willow branch on the moon when they finished dinner. Xi Jiu Er wanted to send her back home with a eunuch, but in the next moment, she received a guard specially sent by a King Xiang to bring her home.


    After the two people said their simple goodbyes, they left. Xi Jiu Er watched the two of them slowly walk out of her field of vision, and the corners of her mouth couldn''t help but curl into a cold smile.


    The moonlight was hidden in the shadows. When the dark clouds in the night sky floated past, the two people not far away seemed to have made an unusual move for a moment, but it was covered up by the moonlight.


    To Xi Jiu Er who had experienced the affairs of a man and woman and was about to turn into a mother, she was naturally more familiar with the intimate actions of a couple than anyone else. If she hadn''t seen wrongly just now, Feng Jin Se would have stood on the spot with her toes raised, as if she wanted to get closer to that young guard.


    Can you act like no one else is intimate with your heart? If it wasn''t for the fact that Feng Jin Se was a woman with a water personality, it was enough to prove that what she had said just now was all a lie.


    The rumors about the Little Princess of the King Xiang Palace encountering the Fox Immortal had probably been spread out intentionally by someone. As for why such rumors had spread, it was most likely due to the fact that the King Xiang had such intentions.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned on the window, watching the moonlight once again bright and shining silver, a cricket that occasionally jumped out from the grass beneath the big pine tree, and disappeared without a trace.


    During these few days of boredom, Xi Jiu Er had gotten used to sitting by the window by herself, looking at the clouds rolling in the sky or even staring at a few struggling bugs in the grass with glee.


    Perhaps it was because of his pregnancy, but ever since he was kidnapped by Feng Qing Cheng into this deep palace, the calm lake water in his heart, which was originally calm, had been affected by some things that happened. His personality seemed to no longer be as cold and detached as before.


    Other than eating, reading, and sleeping every day, Xi Jiu Er would sometimes deeply feel that she was no different from a sow who had been raised in a pigsty. If there was any difference, it was probably because the pig food was not as sumptuous as Xi Jiu Er''s.


    Looking it carefully, Feng Jin Se had not been in Xi Jiu Er''s palace for over half a month. If it wasn''t important, then with Xi Jiu Er''s previous temperament, perhaps she really wouldn''t have minded, but now, she was her only friend in the Imperial Palace. Even if she lied to her, Xi Jiu Er still missed the day where the two of them chatted under the tree and made tea.


    Xi Jiu Er''s body seemed to be in a much better mental state than before, as she thought of calling the palace maids to help him out of the house to check if the peach tree had already blossomed.


    During this period of time, Xi Jiu Er and her husband had only lived together in the same room for a few times, yet the baby in her stomach was growing at an unimaginable speed.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little speechless. A few days ago, she could still barely bend over to fold a low flower. Now, she couldn''t even do such a simple action as bending her body.


    As he slightly leaned backwards, his heavy lower abdomen focused all of his energy into that place. As Xi Jiu Er had no choice but to support his body with every step, he placed the other half of his weight on hymen''s body.

    "Hua Xie, look at this green fruit. After some time, it will grow into a bright red peach. At that time, I''ll teach you guys how to brew peach wine. If you don''t like it, you can also make dried peach walnuts."


    Xi Jiu Er held onto her lower abdomen, her face full of happiness, and with the green fruit in her hand, she tilted her head and chatted with the white palace hymen about Peaches.


    hymen listened attentively, and from time to time nodded his head, indicating that he was listening seriously, and was in complete agreement with the other party''s point of view.


    Xi Jiu Er thought of the jar of grapefruit honey she got the chef to make when he was greedy a few days ago. It seemed that there was still half a jar left to eat, and she considered to send some to Feng Qing Cheng.


    The hymen at the side looked at his master who had been relaxed a moment ago, and frowned with worry. "Is the Empress thinking about something?"


    The beautiful voice of the hymen flowed into Xi Jiu Er''s ears like a spring, interrupting her conflicted thoughts. Xi Jiu Er turned his head to look at the hymen with a doubtful and naive expression, but only shook his head and sighed, "I was thinking about whether I should give Zhuge the grapefruit honey tea that was made by the chef a few days ago. His majesty the Emperor should give some too."


    Hearing this, the hymen smiled and sweetly nodded his head, "Of course I will send them. Leave this matter of the Empress to me!"


    Xi Jiu Er was infected by the young girl''s emotions, which were as sweet as honey.


    The two of them walked around the courtyard once more. hymen was worried that the weather might be a little cold today, and that the spring day might be cold without sunlight, so he persuaded Xi Jiu Er to return to the Inner Palace and properly settle her down before he left the room.


    hymen worked diligently and diligently. After arranging the arrangements for Xi Jiu Er, she carried the small jar of grapefruit honey tea and headed towards the imperial study in high spirits.


    Although he was a little gloomy, but in front of the imperial court, he was a virtuous and capable man, and handling the political affairs of the imperial court was always led by the citizens.


    In recent years, we have exempted ourselves from all kinds of useless exorbitant taxes, opened up the coastal cities to the foreign races, trained diligently in martial arts, and created a powerful army of the Wind Nation''s two strongest land and water fighters.


    Although the commoners had different opinions about this emperor, they all admired him for his age and fame.


    There were seniors in the hymen who were serving in the imperial court. A few days ago, there were some people who tried to kill him with malicious rumors, but they were all found out by the Emperor and executed in public.


    Therefore, the hymen was deeply grateful and terrified of this emperor who could differentiate between right and wrong.


    hymen walked briskly along the way, passing through a few quiet small paths, and then turned around a spring overflowing garden. Only then did he faintly see the imperial study hidden behind the palace gates.


    hymen walked quickly into the palace gate and arrived outside the imperial study. Outside the study, there were two eunuchs on duty, and when they saw the plain white palace attire, they thought it was the servant girl from one of the palaces. They ignored it and stared with their round eyes, but what they saw was not hymen, but a nest of sparrows under the roof of the imperial study.


    hymen was a little nervous, a lot of perspiration appeared on the palm of his hand as he bowed his head in respect, "Eunuch, this servant is the little girl from Imperial Concubine Palace. Today, I sent you servant girls to deliver some food to His Majesty.


    When the eunuch heard the word "imperial concubine," he removed his eyes from the roof and snorted coldly, "His Majesty is not empty today."


    hymen looked up at the sky. It was almost lunch time, was the emperor still reviewing the memorial?


    She did not ask about it, because the next moment, the emperor''s voice came from the royal study.


    "Beauty, what''s your name?"


    "Your Majesty, Servant is called Madam Jade."


    hymen had only heard two words clearly, but he had also guessed a bit of what happened. He had never thought that the Emperor would be so gentle to a woman outside his house, the Imperial Concubine.


    hymen was able to hear the emotions behind those words.


    Afterwards, only a few words could be heard from within the imperial study. Most of them were the coquettish voices of women talking to the emperor, and the sweetness in their words caused hymen to feel a wave of disgust.


    The two eunuchs outside did not chase her away. They pretended that they didn''t know anything and continued to stare at the nest of sparrows.


    hymen was disgusted by the voice of the girl that came out from the basket. She also realised that she should not be here at the moment, hence she turned around and carried the basket back.


    Xi Jiu Er laid on the bed, waiting for hymen to return and report. His body became heavy, and as she was tired and tired, she could only slightly turn his body and find a comfortable position to sleep in.


    This sleep lasted until the branches of the moon and was awakened by the little fellow inside. Xi Jiu Er held onto her lower abdomen and gave the little guy a lesson on etiquette before calling him over to hymen.


    Seeing hymen''s white palace clothing, she felt a little uneasy. The young lady was currently growing up, so she had to change her clothes diligently. Otherwise, her clothes would get smaller by a few inches in a few days.


    Xi Jiu Er took hymen''s hand, and roughly gestured at her arm and waist, then called over her personal servant, telling her to temporarily borrow her clothes to wear, and also instructing all the girls who were not yet eighteen years old to make new clothes, and to make clothes for her to pay for.


    hymen looked at her caring Imperial Concubine and felt her heart ache. For such a good female emperor, if she did not treat the time when she was still in Imperial Concubine''s womb well, she would go and find a new partner. hymen decided to never treat the emperor as someone she admired ever again.


    Xi Jiu Er stared at the hymen whose face had changed color, she was confused, "What happened to you?"


    hymen was completely unaware that her colorful expression had already betrayed her. Hearing her Imperial Concubine''s doubtful voice, she was stunned for a moment, then buried her head in her heart, feeling incomparably sad.


    Xi Jiu Er was confused as she rubbed hymen''s hair bun in a daze, protecting her softly, "What''s wrong? If you have anything to say, just tell me! "


    hymen felt a warm current spreading from his head to his four limbs. Suddenly, his nose turned sour and he started crying.


    Xi Jiu Er, who was completely baffled by hymen''s sudden action, had only thought that she had suffered a grievance outside, and had held it in bitterly, which was why she started to cry.


    Xi Jiu Er touched hymen who was crying on her lap, she hummed a tune that she did not know of, and it was like a gurgling sound had unwittingly flowed into the depths of hymen''s heart.

 C431

    After a long while, hymen finally finished crying. Her teary almond-shaped eyes became a bunch of bright red peaches, causing Xi Jiu Er''s heart to ache as he wiped off the water stains on her face. He smiled and scratched her nose, "How old are you, and you still love to cry?


    When hymen heard this, his tears turned into smiles. He raised his sleeves to wipe the tears on his face.


    Xi Jiu Er reached out her hand and placed a strand of hair that was scattered on her forehead next to her ear, then pulled it back and gently rubbed her cheek. Who bullied you today? Let me hear it! "


    Hearing that, hymen''s face showed grievance and unease again. After hesitating for a moment, he finally revealed everything that happened when he went to the imperial study to deliver Youzi''s honey tea.


    She thought that after getting along with Feng Qing Cheng for the past few days, they would be able to get back together. No matter what happened between the two of them before, in the end, they still hoped that after the birth of a child that they alone could have a father that deeply loved him, the love and love of both his parents would be indispensable.


    However, in the end, it was still a luxury. This man had never been his. He was too naive.


    The smile in his eyes had already completely dimmed down. hymen had long expected this result, but unfortunately, his own mouth was stupid, and didn''t know how to advise his pitiful Imperial Concubine. He could only silently withdraw.


    If one could say that their heart had been wounded once, then they could pretend that nothing had happened to numb themselves. However, if their heart had been injured twice, thrice, thrice, and even countless times, it would already be riddled with holes.


    Xi Jiu Er tightly pursed her lips, and felt a tearing pain in a certain part of her heart, there was a place where someone held a sharp dagger that separated every part of her heart, bringing it in front of her eyes, dripping with blood. She pointed at the blood that was already gradually flowing away, her gradually drying heart, as she silently ridiculed her own naivety and stupidity, and how childish she was.


    Occasionally, a cool breeze would sneak into the empty inner hall. The candle flame danced above the lampstand, causing a long shadow to appear on the marble floor.


    On the bed, a deep stain of water had stained half of the jade pillow.


    The next day, Xi Jiu Er lazily slept for half a day. She had originally planned to look for a few books to flip through in the afternoon, but she didn''t expect that after lunch time, she would fall asleep again. By the time she woke up, it was already sunset.


    After being hungry for an entire afternoon, Xi Jiu Er began to crave for food in her stomach and called her personal palace maid over. After eating dinner, she had originally planned to go back to bed.


    Unexpectedly, a shocking thunderbolt completely dispelled her sleepiness.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished her dinner, she helped herself up and was about to return to the inner hall. However, before she could even step out, the sound of footsteps came from outside the hall, followed by the familiar sharp and slightly hoarse voice of the Chief Eunuch.


    Xi Jiu Er stopped in her tracks, turned her head, and sure enough, it was Chief Eunuch who walked in with a group of palace maids.


    "His Majesty has ordered for Imperial Concubine to head over to the royal study."


    Chief Eunuch waved his hand and respectfully made way for him. He waited for Xi Jiu Er to lead the group out of the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er heard and was stunned. Actually at this time, she did not want to see Feng Qing Cheng, but Chief Eunuch led a group of palace maids and stood respectfully at the side of the palace. From the looks of it, if she did not take the orders to go, he would continue waiting there until the end of time.


    Helplessly, Xi Jiu Er could only turn around and with the support of her personal palace maid, she slowly walked out of the palace.


    Outside of the palace, a Dragon Chase had already stopped outside. Chief Eunuch saw that Xi Jiu Er was frozen in place and immediately went forward to invite her onto the carriage.


    Xi Jiu Er was actually a little surprised, how could someone like Feng Qing Cheng lift up the Dragon Bow, which symbolized an extremely noble status belonging to the Emperor, for her to ride.


    This action made Xi Jiu Er suspicious.


    The Chief Eunuch did not care what Xi Jiu Er thought, he only wanted to hurry to the imperial study, otherwise the Emperor would be furious.


    However, the night wind outside was slightly cold. When Xi Jiu Er came out, because she was in a rush, she forgot to add on her clothes, so she sat on the empty carriage, chilled to the point that she shivered a little by the night wind.


    The Chief Eunuch, who was leading the way from the side, observed the situation. Seeing Xi Jiu Er, who was sitting high up on the Dragon Cage and feeling a little cold, she immediately got everyone to stop. She took the mink overcoat she had prepared from the palace maid and draped it over her body.


    It was only then that Xi Jiu Er realized that she did not know why Feng Qing Cheng had called for him in the middle of the night. In the past, this was the first time Feng Qing Cheng had come to his palace to eat dinner, and then, to stay overnight; he had never taken the initiative to call for him.


    Xi Jiu Er threw her suspicions to Chief Eunuch, who knew that he was only met with an enigmatic smile, and spoke of him from left and right, Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to listen to him, she anxiously stopped, and leaned on the Dragon Cage, drowsy.


    After half a cup of tea had passed, Xi Jiu Er felt the Dragon Cage stopped. Someone was speaking to him from the side of her ear, and she vaguely heard that someone had asked him to go down.


    He lifted off his wide hat and opened his eyes in a daze. Under the moonlight, the words'' Imperial Study ''seemed especially obvious.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er''s brain started to work, she remembered that she was brought to the royal study room by Feng Qing Cheng at dusk.


    He then looked around and realized that he was still on top of the Dragon Cage. He blinked and stretched his body before stepping off the Dragon Cage with one hand supporting his waist and the other supported by his personal palace maid.


    Carrying a heavy body, Xi Jiu Er slowly walked step by step to the entrance of the imperial study.


    Chief Eunuch went in to report, and then immediately brought Xi Jiu Er in.


    Xi Jiu Er said half-heartedly as she blessed the emperor who was on the dragon bed. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er''s body had become heavier and heavier after a few days of absence, she immediately called for someone to bring over a chair.


    Xi Jiu Er sat down, she was very curious about the emperor''s unexpected summons tonight.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not beat around the bush, and directly asked the guards to bring Feng Jin Se up here.

 C432

    Xi Jiu Er looked at Feng Jin Se''s prison uniform, which was so dirty that it covered his face with messy hair. He was completely different from his usual virtuous and quiet self.


    He was still looking at the scene and wanted to ask what was going on when he remembered that his body was no longer as light as a swallow. Thus, he could only obediently give up.


    She turned her head to look at Feng Qing Cheng who was on the dragon case, her tone was somewhat doubtful and resentful. "Your majesty the Emperor, what are you doing? Jinsi is your cousin, and you are so heartless that it hurts people''s hearts. "


    Anger appeared in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes, she truly could not imagine that the Feng Qing Cheng who was previously intimate with a brother, would suddenly have a change in expression and send her cousin out of the prison.


    Before Feng Qing Cheng could reply, Feng Jin Se''s hoarse voice rang out, "Sister-in-law, at this time, I am not blaming my royal brother, it is my royal father''s fault. I did not want to do this at all, but he threatened my beloved one with his life, leaving Jinx no choice but to do so."


    A stream of clear tears rolled out of his eyes and turned into a puddle of turbid liquid, washing away the dust on his face. Feng Jin Se''s sparkling eyes were hidden underneath the messy bangs, and a puddle of tears gradually gathered at the corner of her eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, she tilted her head, puzzled, but the other party was confused. For a moment, she did not know where to start asking questions, and could only look at the writing in the hall in a daze.


    Feng Qing Cheng sat upright on the dragon bed, fury hidden in his eyes. His voice was filled with ice that was hard to melt even after ten thousand years. Then tell me, where is your royal father, my royal uncle? "


    Feng Jin Se seemed to know that he was going to ask where his father was hiding and pretended that he hadn''t heard anything. He only knelt down fiercely and knocked his forehead heavily on the marble floor.


    "Royal brother, please spare my father. Now that he has suffered a crushing defeat, he must not cause any more trouble. I only wish for His Majesty to spare his life."


    Feng Jin Se kowtowed heavily once more, and spoke of what he had said just now once more. He kowtowed again in a panic, repeating what his father had said.


    As a prisoner, Feng Jin Se didn''t dare to sweetly call her royal brother like before. She was afraid that if she called him royal brother, she would provoke that person''s anger, and if that were to happen, not only would her life be spared, even her escaping royal father would be killed as well.


    Feng Jin Se''s every word deeply struck Xi Jiu Er''s heart. Even though she didn''t know what mistake she had committed, just based on those two''s words just now, she was able to guess a thing or two.


    This King Xiang must have been disobedient and wanted to kill his daughter to seize the throne, but he didn''t want to be annihilated by Feng Qing Cheng in one fell swoop. He believed that he had already escaped and left this daughter of his to face the consequences.


    Xi Jiu Er watched as the dark redness that was seeping out from her forehead gradually gathered together and flowed down along her ashen cheeks, dying half of her face red.


    "I plead for Your Majesty to forgive my royal father, that Jinsi is willing to die in place of my father."


    After Xi Jiu Er heard this, she secretly cried out, but just as she was about to get up, she shouted, "You''re dead, what about the one you love? Do you want him to die with you? "


    These words successfully caught the attention of Feng Jin Se, causing him to stand up with his body nailed to the ground, not moving an inch.


    Feng Qing Cheng frowned as he stared at the two people below him. He had always hated being betrayed by others, his own blood uncle had always been unrestrained and dissolute, he had always been in love with the mountains and rivers, he originally thought that Yue Yang only wanted to be the dissipating king, and planned to recall the secret sentry that was placed beside him.


    However, in a secret correspondence with the one sob tribe, he found out that he had a close relationship with some of Great Beijing Dynasty''s loyal subjects, and even specially bought over a thousand war horses from Yutang for the training of the cavalry.


    Feng Qing Cheng immediately felt that he had been too relaxed in spying on Yue Yang for these past few years, and there was even a period of time where she disdained to learn information about him, which resulted in him taking advantage of her carelessness.


    The King Xiang had been able to adopt countless homeless children over the years. After gathering these children in one place, they had then found the best private school teachers and one of the top martial arts masters in the martial arts world and taught them all their knowledge and skills.


    When these orphans reached the age of seventeen or eighteen, the girls among them would be married into the official families in the Wind Nation, or they would be placed in the pavilion in the brothel for information purposes.


    The majority of the men either chose to join the official power or joined the army, starting from the lowest level, and conveniently gathered a group of death warriors who swore to follow them. At the same time, there were also businessmen who tried to monopolize the economic channels of Wind Nation.


    These people were mixed within the vast sea of people in Wind Nation and Great Beijing Dynasty. It was said that they had been adopted and successfully grew up and entered the imperial court for more than ten years. There were already over ten thousand orphans in the martial arts world.


    Facing the countless number of opponents hidden in the darkness, Feng Qing Cheng didn''t know how to make a move for a moment, so he decided to find an ally.


    This ally was the emperor of the Great Beijing Dynasty. Feng Qing Cheng sent a letter, in which he told him the cause and effect of the series of actions in the King Xiang as well as the list of orphans placed within the imperial court of the Great Beijing Dynasty.


    The secret letter had sunk into the ocean for a long time after it was sent out, but Feng Qing Cheng believed that after the other party had confirmed the identity of this group of orphans, they would definitely reply to his question immediately.


    From March to March, half a year after they had sent out the secret letter, the Great Beijing Dynasty Emperor sent over a secret letter. The secret letter detailed how the other party had investigated the identity of this group of orphans, how they had been captured, and how they had learned of the Wind Nation''s movements from their mouths.


    They shared the news that they had obtained with Feng Qing Cheng to express their sincerity. As a result, the two countries'' emperors had smoothly allied themselves in private and they both thought of a way to resist the ant army led by the King Xiang.


    The emperors of the two kingdoms spent a total of three years to destroy this gigantic nest in the "ant nest", both internally and externally.


    Feng Qing Cheng and his allies spent half a year to come up with a somewhat risky plan.


    The two sides secretly sent their elite troops, who had been secretly killed, back to the King Xiang''s headquarters to "replace" some of the orphans. They then tried to find a way for them to gain the King Xiang''s trust.


    After sending the covered ants into the "nest", he sent his trusted aides to other places and, as merchants, secretly found the orphans within, killed them in one go, and then quickly took over their properties.

 C433

    Compared to the imperial court, it was even more dangerous, because right under their noses, there was a person who was ready to make a move and they could not detect it. It was like a flea on a lion, which, with its weak body, could hide itself in a lion''s body and make the lion worry about whether it would jump out to bite it or not.


    This year, the two emperors finally had the chance to destroy the King Xiang in one go, as if they were treading on thin ice.


    The two nations had used three years to set this trap up, waiting for the King Xiang to fall into his trap.


    Feng Qing Cheng had deliberately summoned the King Xiang back to the imperial capital a month ago. When the plan was carried out, he could immediately kill her.


    As for the so-called princess disappearing, the rumor of them running into a fox fairy in the deep mountains was merely that King Xiang sensed that Feng Qing Cheng was abnormal and took the risk to use the matter of Jin Se''s disappearance to disperse the people who had gone to find her and send the message for his adopted son, who had planted himself in the army camp.


    However, none of the messengers were spared. The generals and generals of the two kingdoms'' secret generals had already investigated secretly and sent suspicious soldiers on the path to the Yellow Springs, from the generals to the mere soldiers.


    In the end, no one helped, and the lonely King Xiang decided to take the risk. In the end, the army was defeated like a landslide, and they cruelly abandoned the young daughter of the Imperial Palace.


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed coldly in his heart. Actually, it would not be difficult for him to guess where he would go, it would be nothing more than an uproar or an outpost, he did not know the relationship between him and the outpost, and to reach the border, he would need to pass through many obstacles. As for the two of them, he felt that it was very possible that he would go and ask for help.


    He had only called Feng Jin Se here to let him see her once.


    Although he hated others for betraying him, he knew that Feng Jin Se did not do it on purpose.


    At that time, King Xiang had used her lover to threaten her, but due to helplessness, she could only obey his own royal father and hold the life of her lover in his arms.


    "Your Majesty, can chenqie beg for your life to be spared? No matter what, she is your younger sister, and she is also my, Xi Jiu Er''s younger sister, so she shouldn''t do anything wrong. As her elder brother, you should forgive her.


    Xi Jiu Er also suddenly stood up, supporting herself with her heavy body, she knelt on the ground and respectfully called herself "Chenqie". How could Feng Qing Cheng not understand the helplessness and sincere begging.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s expression turned cold, but he had no choice but to worry about the child in her womb and her usually weak body. He could only walk quickly around the dragon table and walk in front of the two of them.


    "Stand up, This Emperor will allow you to stand up." Feng Qing Cheng bent down to help her up, but didn''t expect that person to be kneeling on the ground and not lift his head for even a moment.


    In fact, he had never planned to kill Zhuge Jin Xiu, he only knew that the palace had many eyes and ears, if someone spread the news that he was forgiven Feng Jin Se, it would definitely make some people who were ready to make a move even more unscrupulous.


    Therefore, this time, he wanted to "kill" the chicken for the monkey to see. He wanted to let the people in the shadows see how decisive he was in killing.


    Xi Jiu Er kneeled on the ground, resolutely not looking at the furious Feng Qing Cheng beside him.


    "This concubine requests Your Majesty''s permission." Xi Jiu Er''s clear and cold voice resounded within the entire great hall. She slightly bent her body, wanting to kowtow and beg for mercy for Feng Qing Cheng, but she didn''t expect that her kowtow would be so heavy that it nearly knocked her head against the ground.


    When Feng Qing Cheng and Feng Jin Se saw this scene, they immediately stepped forward and firmly held her. Feng Jin Se said with teary eyes, "Sister-in-law, you can''t. You still have a baby in your stomach, you can''t kneel on this cold stone, quickly get up."


    When Feng Qing Cheng saw that Xi Jiu Er was so stubborn, his heart burned with anger. His face was extremely ugly, and he did not care about Feng Jin Se beside him, as he bent over, a burst of inner force surged out and pulled Xi Jiu Er fiercely into her embrace. Feng Qing Cheng then turned and flew out of the Imperial Study, leaving Feng Jin Se crying as he held onto his hands.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned into Feng Qing Cheng''s embrace, not crying or making noise, and only tightly pulled on the clothes on his chest, with tears flickering in her eyes.


    The next day, Xi Jiu Er got up early in the morning and specially sent hymen to the imperial study, hoping that Feng Jin Se could escape this calamity in exchange for an unexpected and reasonable piece of news.


    The body had been secretly executed by order of the Emperor last night. No one knew where it had been thrown.


    Xi Jiu Er puffed her stomach, with one hand on her waist and the other tightly holding onto the cloud silk tablecloth, her eyebrows knitted together, her eyes filled with mist.


    She knew that Feng Qing Cheng was a heartless and unloyal person, and hated those who betrayed her even more. She had once met him privately by chance once, and it couldn''t be described with the word ''cruel'' when it came to dealing with a eunuch who went against his wishes.


    Furthermore, Feng Jin Se and the King Xiang had betrayed him at the same time. Although Feng Jin Se had not done it from the start, it was still a betrayal.


    The water droplets that dripped from the corner of Xi Jiu Er''s eyes startled the hymen beside her. She hurriedly stepped forward and fished out a handkerchief, extending her hand to wipe them off for her.


    subconsciously waved his hand to dismiss the handkerchief in her hand. hymen thought that it was because of his clumsiness that made Xi Jiu Er angry, so he hurriedly knelt down, and apologized with a trembling voice, "Imperial Concubine, Servant did not do it on purpose. I beg Imperial Concubine to forgive me, I will never do it again."


    When he looked down, he realized that hymen who was lying on the ground had calmed down a little, and was doing his best to control his anger and grief.


    "Get up. I was thinking about something just now, and it was not on purpose to scare you away, you left," Xi Jiu Er said as he rubbed his head with a headache, and waved hymen off with a face full of worry.


    With much difficulty, Xi Jiu Er held onto her stomach and leaned on the edge of the bed as she sat down.


    After seeing Feng Qing Cheng''s cruel choice to his own sister, Xi Jiu Er no longer believed that this kind of person, who could even take his sister''s life without batting an eye, could be killed with a wave of his hand.


    As a woman who still didn''t know how much land she occupied in his heart, how could she hope to spend the rest of her life with him?


    Xi Jiu Er had never dared to place her importance in his heart at a high level, because she knew that heartless and unloyal men would never truly place anyone in their heart.

 C434

    In Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes, the instinct for everyone and everything that existed was, for him to conquer and solve this situation. In Feng Qing Cheng''s heart, other than the people of Wind Nation, there was probably only himself.


    If he had to rely on his daily needs to wait for Feng Qing Cheng''s favor to make his living, Xi Jiu Er felt that it would be better to just find a piece of tofu to smash himself into. In her heart, if she loved someone, she would have to be together forever and put him in the most important position.


    And the bloody reality told her that all of this was just wishful thinking. According to Feng Qing Cheng''s cold personality, in his eyes, she should be no different from any other woman.


    Xi Jiu Er quietly sat on the bed. The child in her stomach was especially quiet today, as if she knew that she would encounter such a tragic thing today, and specially used silence to soothe the loneliness and grief in Xi Jiu Er''s heart.


    From the willow on the moon to the light of dawn, the sky gradually brightened. Xi Jiu Er, who had not slept for the entire night, stared at the two dark circles in her eyes. After leaving the Inner Palace, she decided to go to the front hall to eat.


    She already understood that if this continued, she would only be treated as a pet by Feng Qing Cheng, or a cow that had been waiting to give birth all this time.


    It was not that she did not love Feng Qing Cheng, nor that she did not want to be with him forever. It was because she knew that even if she was willing to stay in the palace and protect this small place, Feng Qing Cheng would never care about her for even a single moment.


    Just like yesterday, she could only look on helplessly as her little sister executed, separating the two of them from each other. She could even pretend that she didn''t know anything, so that she could stay and eat in her own palace.


    Xi Jiu Er held onto the bed, and stood up bit by bit. She had long since stopped worrying about whether or not she would stay in the palace, and what she was thinking about was how to escape from this cold and dangerous place with a huge stomach.


    Last night, Feng Qing Cheng carried Xi Jiu Er back to the palace, and when he saw that the other party didn''t seem to be crying or making a fuss, it pitifully made his heart ache. There were some things that he couldn''t tell her temporarily, and Feng Qing Cheng wanted to wait for everything to come to an end before he told her everything that had happened, word for word.


    Xi Jiu Er lazily leaned against the window, holding a teacup that was steaming hot in her hand. As the wind blew past, Xi Jiu Er could not help but sneeze, and a cup of tea floated out along with her actions.


    At Imperial Concubine. Let him clean up. The soft and gentle voice of the hymen beside him sounded in his ears. Xi Jiu Er was too lazy to even turn his head, and could only pass the teacup in his hand over.


    The hand that was in midair was held tightly by a rough and warm big hand. The warmth that came from Xi Jiu Er''s hand was slightly startled for a moment, before she turned her head to look behind him.


    Feng Qing Cheng had changed into a scarlet robe, on the cloak, there were nine lifelike five clawed golden dragons, symbolizing the position of the Nine Five Zhi Zun, Xi Jiu Er stared blankly at the nine golden dragons'' scarlet robe, for a moment, her head was broken.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at Xi Jiu Er, who was staring at her robes in a daze, and thought that it was really funny.


    Xi Jiu Er heard the low male voice that was laughing at him, and her eyes lit up. There was an uncontrollable emotion in her head that was being suppressed by her, as though if she were to forcibly suppress it, everyone in the palace would be dragged into the abyss by him in the next moment.


    The corner of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth curled up with difficulty. To be honest, today, she had truly seen Feng Qing Cheng''s cold-blooded and cruel appearance, but Xi Jiu Er really did not dare to casually toss her face for him to see. After all, most of the people in this house were innocent young girls.


    After all, burying his entire life in this cold and detached place was already incomparably pitiful. If he let them become the fish in a pool that was affected by Feng Qing Cheng''s anger, Xi Jiu Er would never forgive himself in his entire life.


    "I wonder what orders does His Majesty have for us?" Xi Jiu Er endured the discomfort she felt in her heart, stood up, and quickly withdrew the palm that was in Feng Qing Cheng''s grasp, respectfully lowering her head.


    Feng Qing Cheng frowned slightly as he watched Xi Jiu Er''s abnormal movements. His lowered right hand could not help but tightly clench into a fist and place it behind his back.


    Xi Jiu Er''s abnormal movements and respectful appearance made it seem as if she really was a normal imperial concubine in her imperial harem. She did not waste any effort in trying to leave him, she did not reject him coldly from a thousand miles away.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not believe all of this. Such a obedient Xi Jiu Er made him suddenly feel insecure.


    "My beloved concubine, why has I come here? I''m sure you already know, so there''s no need to beat around the bush anymore."


    Feng Qing Cheng pretended nothing happened as he slightly leaned forward, his handsome face was only half a fist away from Xi Jiu Er. The warmth of his breath enveloped Xi Jiu Er''s face.


    Xi Jiu Er felt a flush on her face, and quickly bowed as she retreated a few steps, and continued, "Does your majesty have any late dinner?"


    Seeing that the other party was still respectful, Feng Qing Cheng thought that he was angry at him because of Feng Jin Se. He didn''t know how to comfort her for a while, so he could only slow his tone and try his best to be gentle, "We will eat dinner in your palace tonight."


    Xi Jiu Er bowed in blessing and turned around to instruct the kitchen to prepare the necessary meals for the night.


    Actually, telling this kind of thing, Xi Jiu Er didn''t even need to do it, but she really didn''t want to be in the same room as Feng Qing Cheng. Many things happened, and even if she wanted to change it, she wanted to conceal it and pretend nothing happened.


    But the fact was, it had happened. Even if he hadn''t seen it, the barrier between the two of them had already formed.


    Xi Jiu Er had been barely able to accompany Feng Qing Cheng for a meal the whole night, and after that, she finally managed to accompany Feng Qing Cheng to sleep.


    He did not know if it was because of Xi Jiu Er, or if Feng Qing Cheng was worried about the matter regarding Feng Jin Se, but after a few days, they all rushed over to Xi Jiu Er''s palace.


    Xi Jiu Er was confused, the atmosphere between the two of them was extremely weird, Feng Qing Cheng only thought that she was angry for a moment, and did not think that it was him.


    It was only until something that caught him off guard that Feng Qing Cheng finally realized that he had neglected certain deeply hidden emotions within the depths of the other party''s heart.

 C435

    Escape from the palace?


    That day was an important day for Xi Jiu Er to escape from this "land of conflict". Although she did not know that there would be anyone who would be able to pass through the numerous traps and checkpoints that Feng Qing Cheng had set up and come to this ghastly and deep courtyard in order to save her, regardless of the cost of their lives.


    That day was the day the Wind Nation''s annual Prayer Nerve was sent down, which was commonly known as "Praying God" Day. This day was equally important to the people of the Wind Nation as well as to those in power.


    The people needed the help of the gods'' divine power to smooth the year''s winds and rain, and the five grains were plentiful.


    And for Feng Qing Cheng, who was in a position of power, the importance of this day was also the best opportunity to win over the hearts and hearts of others.


    On this day, the entire Wind Nation would be singing and dancing, praying that the Emperor would leave the palace and head towards the East Light Pavilion, which was located thirty miles outside of the imperial capital, to pay his respects to the Heavenly Emperor and the God of Nations. Then, he would personally watch over the passing of the year to see if the destiny of the was prosperous or not, and if the citizens would still live in peace and do whatever they wanted.


    Finally, all the well-prepared singing and dancing groups on all the streets of the imperial city would start singing and dancing. At that time, the Wind Nation could be said to be filled with people, and it could be said that there were simply too many people gathered here.


    This day was also the only day Feng Qing Cheng would be gone for a very long time. The gap between the two had already allowed an "uninvited guest" who had infiltrated the imperial city to successfully insert an important matter.


    Xi Jiu Er was half-lying on the bed, her fingers gently caressing that tattoo. She knew that there were some things that shouldn''t be forced, such as love.


    It was not that she did not love Feng Qing Cheng, but rather that after her heart had been pierced by his love again and again, all that was left was her heart that was riddled with holes.


    Xi Jiu Er woke up early in the morning, and had been unable to sleep for the past few days. Even during the next few days, Feng Qing Cheng stayed at her palace, hugging Xi Jiu Er to sleep in the middle of the night.


    Today was Wind Nation''s'' blessings'' day, so Feng Qing Cheng had long since risen up and went to the Imperial Court. With his eyes closed, Xi Jiu Er waited for the sound of his footsteps to gradually disappear, then he opened his eyes and followed them out.


    A few days ago, Xi Jiu Er was having a headache about how to deceive people and escape from the Imperial Palace. On a beautiful afternoon, Xi Jiu Er saw a slender figure at the side of the Inner Palace, whose body was hidden in the darkness.


    This was because the person had explained the purpose of his visit and at the same time had attached a secret letter.


    The secret letter was filled with the writer''s worry. The lines of the letter gave Xi Jiu Er a warm feeling, and at the same time, the words were filled with strength, yet also contained a little bit of the vicissitudes of life.


    Xi Jiu Er recognized the person who wrote the letter. She was extremely beautiful, and her enthusiasm was like that of a Gardenia jasminoides that was slowly blossoming in Wind Nation''s winter months. This person was none other than Xi Jiu Er''s good friend from her homeland, Great Beijing Dynasty''s Prince Xian, Mu Qiu Shui.


    The secret letter told Xi Jiu Er that ever since she disappeared for no reason, the Wei Guogong had immediately sent out her elite soldiers and immediately rushed back to the imperial capital on horseback. She had informed Mu Qiu Shui in time, hoping that he could secretly help him, and the two sides were suspicious of each other, but did not dare to let it show themselves.


    Mu Qiu Shui had already stayed in the Wind Nation Imperial City for a few days, and he had also wanted to enter the Imperial Palace, but he was forced to return to her palace after finding the strange gate hide armor Feng Qing Cheng had placed around the palace. Recently, the Wind Nation ''blessings'' had allowed them to take advantage of the opportunity.


    The guard simply transmitted Mu Qiu Shui''s plan.


    It turned out that Mu Qiu Shui wanted to bring Xi Jiu Er out of the Imperial Palace with the help of today''s "Blessing Festival".


    The first half of the plan was for Mu Qiu Shui to send his personal bodyguard, disguised as a chef who was going out to purchase things in the imperial kitchen. He would wait for the opportunity when no one else was paying attention to him, and when he found out where Xi Jiu Er lived, he would deliver the secret letter to her.


    Then, he would take the opportunity when Feng Qing Cheng was on his way to pray for his blessings to allow the Madame s who were with the empress to secretly trade Xi Jiu Er out. Finally, he would need to rely on Xi Jiu Er''s disguise techniques to follow the other Madame s out of the palace.


    Mu Qiu Shui''s secret letter did not mention who the eunuch or Madame s who came to fetch her were, it only emphasized that she was a potbellied Madame.


    Although Xi Jiu Er was very surprised that the other party knew that her stomach had already appeared, and even meticulously brought over a pregnant woman who was similarly waiting to give birth to a baby to replace him, it was really making things difficult for him.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished reading the letter, she quickly lit up the lamp and threw the letter into the lantern. Only when all the letters had been turned into ashes did she extinguish the lamp.


    "Your Highness has ordered, when the Emperor of the Wind Nation s are about to go to the Eastern Light Pavilion to pray and stir up some trouble, the young lady will be ready. In a moment, there will be people coming to replace the young lady and she will leave the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Then let''s carry out your master''s plan!"


    The shadow immediately flashed out of the window, and Xi Jiu Er climbed onto the bed.


    The moment that the ring-hour appeared, Xi Jiu Er heard the deafening sound of drums, this kind of Golden Age Wind Nation usually had three rings of the drum and three rings of the gong.


    After the six sounds were done, the faint sounds of footsteps could be heard again and again leaving. Xi Jiu Er skillfully took out the disguise tools, and then sat on the dressing table and started to disguise herself.


    In a moment, Xi Jiu Er had disguised herself, and inside the mirror, she saw a normal looking lady, who was calmly staring at Xi Jiu Er.


    A black shadow suddenly rushed in and knelt down, "This is the appearance of the disguised Madame, you can take this as a disguise for me."


    The man''s voice was emotionless and stiff like a lake of death. Xi Jiu Er was startled when she heard it, she turned and received the portrait. She flipped it open and took a look, revealing the face of a fine and beautiful woman.


    Xi Jiu Er waved for him to withdraw, and placed the portrait in his hand to the side. Looking at the beauties in the painting, he raised his eyebrow, and drew a line in the air, making it seem ethereal.


    The ring-hour was about to pass, Xi Jiu Er sat in the inner hall, not allowing anyone to disturb him, she waited for the eunuch Madame to come and exchange identities with him before taking a fish out of the water and leaving the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little surprised that she could leave the palace so smoothly. From the moment the girl who had taken her place appeared outside the palace dressed in luxurious Yun Jin Gardenia jasminoides designs, to when she had changed her identity, to when Xi Jiu Er had followed the guard and successfully left the palace.


    Unexpectedly, no one came to stop him, and as Xi Jiu Er walked with an anxious and anxious heart, he lowered his head and kept his eyes, pretending to be noble and dignified, not allowing the others to be suspicious.


    The guards took the carriage and ran. Just in case, they intentionally abandoned the carriage and picked a sedan. The eight of them took the sedan and passed by.

 C436

    Xi Jiu Er nervously sat in front of the Assistant Minister of War''s residence. The Assistant Minister''s residence had already sent people to greet him, so she, the "Assistant Minister Madame", had to return to her residence.


    The guard outside the sedan chair said in a low voice, "The prince is in the assistant minister''s residence, so the lady just needs to pretend to be the assistant minister''s Madame and follow me."


    Xi Jiu Er replied indifferently, "Alright."


    Not long later, a gentle and quiet female voice came from outside, "Madame, Master has sent Servant to welcome you back to the house."


    Xi Jiu Er paused for a moment, and then emotionlessly spat out a single word, "Alright."


    Her delicate and pretty eyes were slightly raised, and what entered her eyes was a servant girl waiting respectfully in front of the sedan. Xi Jiu Er gave her a bland glance, then handed her over to the maid at the side, and slowly walked to her side, secretly leading her into the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er deliberately took a few steps back, but out of the corner of her eyes, she did not even blink an eye to catch a glimpse of the back of the guard. She was constantly paying attention to the movements of the guard, and although she seemed to be leisurely pacing in the courtyard, she was actually following the guard''s footsteps.


    Originally, Xi Jiu Er had heard from Feng Qing Cheng about this assistant minister of the Military Department. It was said that after he became a noble in the Wind Nation, his ancestor was caught up in a sudden incident of the Prince of the opposite sex causing a change in the palace, and was forced to flee the capital under the protection of the Death Soldiers of the palace.


    Until twelve years ago, when the late emperor brought this matter up and retried it. He then announced the imperial list to those innocent people, who were wronged. Following that, he purposely ordered for the descendants of those people to be rich.


    It was said that the assistant minister of the Ministry of War had been a beggar on the streets, begging for money all the way to the capital.


    He was dressed in ragged clothes and looked miserable. After ripping off the imperial list, he cried loudly in front of the cloth fence. His originally dirty face was now indistinguishable from his tears.


    After the late emperor went to the imperial court that day, he found out about this person''s abnormal actions from Jing Zhaoyin. He immediately sent his personal Chief Eunuch to bring this person back to the imperial palace.


    This person was also very interesting. Along the way from the main street of the Vermillion Bird City to the Imperial Palace, the late emperor looked at his aggrieved expression, and then asked about his identity. After the two sides verified, this person was indeed the descendant of a group of innocent people.


    This person didn''t care where he was, he only cared about crying. Besides answering a few questions from the late emperor, he just sat on the ground and cried.


    The late emperor didn''t get angry when he saw this scene. He only thought that he was crying for the grievances his ancestors had suffered for the past few decades. He thought that this person was a man of his nature.


    After that, he asked what skills he knew, but this time, this person did not cry. He neatly stood up and danced a set of the fist techniques passed down in his clan, which made him look strong and powerful.


    Therefore, the late emperor waved his hand and sent him to be the vanguard of the army. In the next few years, he had established military exploits time and time again, and in Feng Qing Cheng''s generation, the emperor had summoned him back and conferred him the title of an assistant minister.


    At that time, Xi Jiu Er only thought of this ridiculous story as a joke to dispel her hunger, but she never thought that there would come a day when she would have to rely on this legendary assistant minister of the army to escape from this place.


    The corners of Xi Jiu Er''s mouth curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Immersed in her own inner world, she tried to recall all of the things that she had thought about, or wanted to forget. It was as if after this lifetime, she would erase everything that had happened in the past.


    "Madame, we have arrived," The servant''s cold voice sounded by his ear, causing Xi Jiu Er to be startled, he raised his head to look at the direction of the voice blankly, but when he saw the ice-cold handsome face, he instantly recalled his current situation?


    Xi Jiu Er paused, her eyes flashed a moment of brightness, and then she slowly raised her chin at the guards, as she turned her head to look at the servants behind him and coldly said, "You guys wait here, I will enter by myself."


    "Yes, Madame."


    Xi Jiu Er withdrew his right hand that was supported by the servant girl, and slightly tilted her waist, barely able to adapt to the situation. She extended his hand to signal the guards to help him up, and then walked towards the small courtyard that was hidden behind a green bamboo forest.


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head to take a glance. Seeing that they were all blocked outside the bamboo forest, she slowly asked: "Why is the Prince in the Office of the Assistant Minister of the Military Department?"


    Because the guard was tall and big, when Xi Jiu Er had just reached his chest, she had no choice but to bend down to support her. Upon hearing this, she faintly replied respectfully, "This subordinate does not know about this matter, if Miss is curious, it would be better to personally ask the Prince."


    Xi Jiu Er did not want to learn anything from him, but it came as a surprise to her.


    The words "Miss" caused Xi Jiu Er''s face to turn pale, and she felt a little embarrassed. If someone else saw her holding a big belly and called her ''Miss,'' she would definitely beat them up immediately. Of course, she did not use force to deal with them easily, but she believed that just by relying on her condensed ice eyes, she could make sure that they had already corroded the opponent''s cold Qi long ago without using a single ice blade.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes turned cold, but she was not in a good mood, thinking that her current identity was also extremely awkward. Although she was a subject of the Great Beijing Dynasty, and also a Imperial Concubine, and although it was not her wish, the awkwardness was laid out so that she would not have any excuses.


    With such an awkward identity, he couldn''t blame the other party for calling him ''lady''.


    Xi Jiu Er let out a long breath, and tried her best to stop thinking about those worries of her. As long as she left your Wind Nation as soon as possible, she would be able to meet her grandfather.


    The two of them walked a few steps into a quiet and secluded courtyard. They saw a wooden signboard hanging above the courtyard. On it, the words "Cold Moon Pavilion" were displayed in a flamboyant manner.


    Xi Jiu Er raised her head to look at the wooden signboard, and then, with the support of the guards, she stretched out her hand to pull at the long skirt beneath her feet, and carefully crossed the threshold.


    There were a few orioles singing in the yard, and a cypress tree was growing on the side. Occasionally, a few orioles would fly out from the lush branches, and two or three of them would chase each other in the air, chirping happily.

 C437

    In the northwest corner of the courtyard, there was a resplendent peach tree. Butterflies flew about in the tree, and petals fell down from the tree like a red rain from a fairy, falling to the ground. It also looked like a top-quality Niyi Dancing Dress made out of Dreamy Cloud Silk.


    Two large trees were like a pair of jade girls standing guard in the garden. In the small courtyard, there were a few green bamboo stools, two identical green bamboo stools, and two teacups with blue and white porcelain patterns on the table. At this moment, there was steam rising from them.


    Xi Jiu Er looked around, her cold voice calling out, "Is there anyone here?"


    Other than the chirping of birds in the small courtyard, only the buzzing of butterflies and bees answered her.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the peaceful and quiet courtyard, and asked repeatedly with a soft voice, but she did not hear anyone replying him.


    "There''s no one in this garden?"


    The guard silently shook his head and did not say anything. He turned around and looked at the side room, indicating that there was something she wanted to know.


    Xi Jiu Er turned and stood in place. After pondering for a moment, she raised her hand for the guards to help him walk into the room.


    The furnishings in the room were extremely sparse. Other than the wooden tables, stools, and the beds, there was not a single item that could be considered a luxury item.


    Xi Jiu Er stood on the spot and observed, there was nothing special about it that caught her attention. Suddenly, she felt the person holding her let go of her hand, and turned her head to look, only to see that the guard beside had walked to a corner of the room with large strides, and it was unknown what he was playing with. In a moment, he heard an abnormal sound behind him, and turned to look, and the wall he was leaning on, had already slowly risen up.


    The guard walked to Xi Jiu Er''s side in a few steps, and once again supported her into the secret room.


    "Is the prince here?"


    "Exactly."


    The guard finally replied indifferently. Xi Jiu Er nodded in understanding. Only then did she realize that the two of them were already deeply immersed in the darkness, and the other party could not see her expression at all.


    Xi Jiu Er could feel a hint of warmth coming from her fingertips, and her heart couldn''t help but to calm down. She could hear the guards who were similarly hidden in the darkness beside him, and said in an excited voice, "Madame, you have to be careful, this stone staircase is a bit slippery, and you don''t know where the moisture is coming from."


    Before he finished his sentence, he heard something flying out of his ear. The thing hit the wall with a few "pa pa pa" sounds, and in an instant, a bunch of orange flames rose up from the oil lamp on the wall.


    Only now did Xi Jiu Er notice where she was. The stone floor was slightly wet, and what was beside him was no wall, but instead a rough and uneven man-made cave''s stone wall. The twisted stone steps formed a spiral shaped, circular path that led downwards, and on the stone wall, there was a candlestick nailed every few steps, on top of it was a plate filled with oil lamps.


    The cave was so quiet, it was as if they were really deep in the woods. The only sound in the air was the light breathing of the two of them. The distant lamps were not lit yet, shrouding the entire scene ten steps away in darkness.


    Xi Jiu Er stood in place, stared at the shadow below her feet that was pulled unsteadily by the dim yellow light, reached out, pulled up the skirt that was just put down, and carefully walked down a step.


    The guard carefully supported her as well. The wet, cold and quiet cave was moving down the stairs step by step steadily.


    The air was slowly carrying traces of a bone-piercing cold energy. It was already a warm spring, and Xi Jiu Er didn''t wear much to begin with. At this moment, she felt a wave of chilliness assaulting her face, and her entire body couldn''t help but shiver from the cold.


    As the guard flew over to ignite the lanterns on the stone wall, he was also distracted with Xi Jiu Er''s actions. The guard''s fingers that were supporting her could clearly feel the other party''s cold shiver, and thought that the cold energy within the cave had rushed over, causing the thin clothed Xi Jiu Er to be affected by the cold energy. She immediately stopped and quickly took off her embroidered robe.


    The guard respectfully handed over the brocade robe. "Miss, please use this subordinate''s outer garment first. In order to not attract attention, this subordinate didn''t intentionally have clothes, so I let you freeze. Please forgive me."


    The tip of Xi Jiu Er''s nose itched, and before she had the chance to reply, a large sneeze was brought out, "It''s fine, let''s hurry up and go down," Xi Jiu Er had originally been thinking about the damp and cold inside the cave, and the two of them were both dressed in thin clothes. If the other party had given him the clothes, he would have definitely been frozen, so she felt pity and rejected the other person''s good intentions.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was about to turn around and continue walking down the stairs, the guard beside him continued, "If Miss gets frozen in the cave, Your Highness will definitely not forgive me.


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er stopped in her tracks, and after a while, she took the clothes from the guard and walked down the stairs without looking back.


    Along the way, Xi Jiu Er did not ask about other things. After tormenting herself for the entire morning, Xi Jiu Er''s stomach was already starting to churn. After all, her stomach still had a mouth, and it was all dependent on Xi Jiu Er.


    Inside an empty cave, lights were flickering on the stone wall, faint yellow covered both of them. The shadows under their feet were getting longer and longer, and it was unknown whether or not a dark place in the distance led to where they met up with Mu Qiu Shui.


    If he wasn''t worried, then it was impossible to not be afraid. This pitch-black cave was no different from the dark and windy night when people were killing and setting fires.


    This kind of mysterious and bizarre cave actually connected to this cold courtyard. himself had subconsciously followed them in just now, but he did not know if it was a blessing or a curse; he probably could only find Mu Qiu Shui in order to get a clear understanding of the sequence of events.


    The two of them waited for around an hour. Xi Jiu Er supported herself with each step as she struggled to move forward, she was not a delicate Miss, after she became pregnant she would also play with her spear as usual, and from time to time, she would dance with a set of fist techniques to relieve her depression. But now, her lower abdomen was almost completely exposed, and her unusually big stomach was being held in her hands with difficulty.


    As he walked, step by step, the light behind him dimmed, and in front of his eyes appeared a flame the size of a soybean that was slowly pulsing in the air, causing Xi Jiu Er to feel frustrated. He was unable to see just how far ahead he was going to have to go, he only knew that his pupils were dim and yellow.


    The two of them slowly walked on the slippery stairs. After approximately two hours, the temperature of the cave became lower and lower. Xi Jiu Er''s thin and embroidered robe was no longer able to resist the coldness of the cave.

 C438

    Xi Jiu Er''s trembling steps were repeated like this, and her entire body had already been frozen stiff by the cold wind. It was as if all her limbs and bones were frozen into blocks of ice, and one could even hear the "creaking" sounds of her bones as she walked on the stone steps.


    She lowered her head and focused all her attention on her feet, afraid that her frozen feet would suddenly be affected.


    It was a good thing that the two of them saw a faint light in the darkness not long after. They did not need to guess to guess that it was their destination.


    He did not feel too cold even though he was clad in white. After all, he had been trained and raised in an extreme environment since he was young. When winter came, he would lie down in the snow, and that kind of cold was not just a little bit less than the temperature in the cave right now.


    Seeing the light in front of his eyes piercing through the darkness and shining in, Xi Jiu Er''s heart was filled with joy.


    Xi Jiu Er''s entire body was almost stiff, and when she crossed the last step, she almost lost her balance and fell to the ground. Luckily the guard beside her caught her by the sleeve with her sharp eyes, and only then was he able to stabilize her.


    The first thing that came out of the cave was a warm breath of spring. Xi Jiu Er stood steadily at the cave entrance to recuperate for a while, then raised her foot and walked out of the cave.


    Surrounded by towering trees, there was a magnificent waterfall not far away. It cascaded down three thousand feet, splashing up crystal clear fragments of jade. It was like lightning, thunder, or the galloping of millions of war horses. The scene could be said to be magnificent.


    Xi Jiu Er gently pushed the guard aside and casually found a huge rock to sit on. Her warm eyes caressed her entire body, dispersing the cold.


    "Miss, please rest here. This subordinate will look for traces of the King," the guard instructed Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er was greedy for the warm sunlight, but at the same time, she was also exhausted. She felt sleepy, so after hearing the guards ask him for permission, he nodded, and started to doze off.


    Xi Jiu Er was curious as to how the assistant minister of the Military Department managed to connect that secret room to the deep mountains, but he was worried about another matter.


    Was this Mu Qiu Shui deliberately mystifying himself, or was he forced to hide deep in the mountains? Could it be that Feng Qing Cheng already knew about him appearing at Wind Nation?


    Xi Jiu Er hurriedly "pei pei" three times, while lightly patting her own mouth, in her heart, she was praying that the heavens did not joke with him like this.


    After consoling himself and hypnotizing himself for a while, Xi Jiu Er started to realize that there was something unusual about this deep mountain. Normally, there would be birds chirping and insects chirping deep inside the mountain, however, she had only been here for half an hour now, so other than the sounds of Liu Shui hitting the huge rocks that came from the waterfall in front of her, there were almost no other sounds that could be heard.


    Xi Jiu Er leaned her body forward, and leaned to the side, trying to hear the small sounds in the air. However, it was useless, because other than the sounds of the waterfall, there was only the sound of her own breathing.


    This place didn''t seem like an ordinary mountain forest. It was a peaceful place, but filled with a mysterious and desolate feeling.


    Xi Jiu Er subconsciously called out the servant''s name. In the empty forest, her voice was transmitted from far away, the echo in the empty mountain seemed so lonely, and also so obvious.


    Just when Xi Jiu Er was hesitating about whether to return along the same route as before, and think of ways to escape from the Office of the Assistant Minister of War, the current situation did not seem to be too optimistic. Mu Qiu Shui had sent guards to bring her over, but they had not revealed her appearance at all.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was in a daze, a figure suddenly came out from the boulder behind him. Just as Xi Jiu Er was in a daze, a rough and powerful hand covered her mouth, and pulled her tightly into her embrace, hiding behind the boulder.


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were wide opened, she did not believe that she would be subdued by others like that. She initially wanted to twist her body to struggle, but she realised that her heavy and weak body could no longer be as nimble and nimble as before, she could not help but feel frustrated.


    Before Xi Jiu Er could twist it around, she heard a soft sound coming from the grass, followed by a large movement to pluck the grass, and the sound of vigorous footsteps. Xi Jiu Er was startled, and then stopped struggling, staring at the stone as though she could see through the stone.


    The footsteps got closer and closer, but the voice suddenly stopped. Just when Xi Jiu Er thought that the other party had left, a deep male voice sounded out, "Go look behind this rock."


    The sound was very close, so close that it seemed to be right beside his ear. Xi Jiu Er was a little flustered, and the body trapped in the person''s embrace behind him subconsciously stopped moving, and the sound of rapid breathing came from the back of his neck. A gust of moist heat sprayed onto his ear, like a small worm crawling and moving, and it was itchy to the point of being uncomfortable.


    It was only then that she realized that she was being held in someone''s embrace and wanted to continue struggling. Unexpectedly, a pleasant man''s voice came from beside her, "Don''t move, if you are discovered later, both of us will die very miserably."


    Hearing this, Xi Jiu Er subconsciously stopped moving. Such a pleasant voice made her want to turn her head to see who the owner of the voice was, but she didn''t expect the owner of the voice to slap her head back.


    "Don''t move, I''m afraid we''ll fall down soon."


    Anger could be heard in the man''s voice as he subconsciously pursed his lips and stuck his head close to the stone.


    Soon after, the sound of footsteps could be heard again, coming from the quiet forest. Then, another stranger spoke in a childish voice, "Reporting to General, behind this boulder is a 100,000 foot high cliff. It is impossible for there to be any thieves hiding here."


    After the man finished speaking, no one continued talking, they only heard the sound of steady and orderly footsteps. Xi Jiu Er''s ear was tightly pressed against the stone, listening to the footsteps that were gradually getting further and further away, and then he heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Don''t move, I''ll think of a way to send you up now." Xi Jiu Er''s four limbs were bound so tightly that they felt numb, she wanted to move her limbs a bit, but once again, a pleasant man''s voice came into his ears.


    Xi Jiu Er pressed her face against the stone and rolled her eyes towards the stone. She stealthily turned her head to glance behind her, and instantly, her face underwent a myriad of changes.


    Xi Jiu Er pressed her face against the stone with all her might. Her body was bound by someone else and she had no choice but to hope that the person behind him was thin enough so that she would have a place to leave her big belly.

 C439

    The man''s breathing suddenly became more anxious, the hot air that was puffing on Xi Jiu Er''s ears became more irritable.


    Xi Jiu Er uncomfortably turned her head, and was immediately hit by the man behind him.


    "Don''t move, we are only one step away from the thousand zhang cliff now. What, you want to go down? Imperial Concubine? "


    When the man called out "Imperial Concubine", Xi Jiu Er could not help but shiver and berate sternly, "Who the hell are you?"


    The man was not annoyed. He said in a neutral tone, "Who am I? It''s not important, as long as you are the woman that Mu Qiu Shui wants."


    Hearing the other party mention Mu Qiu Shui in such a baffling manner, Xi Jiu Er became even more suspicious. Hearing this tone, Xi Jiu Er felt that this person clearly knew who he was with Prince Xian, but the other party''s tone did not contain the reverence and pettiness that he should have. It was as if he was normally discussing with Xi Jiu Er what he should eat tonight.


    Xi Jiu Er silently planned in her heart, if this person was Mu Qiu Shui''s enemy, and wanted to take revenge by threatening him, then she must quickly escape from the other party''s control.


    However, at this time, Xi Jiu Er felt that it was not the time to run away, and she accidentally took a glance at him.


    She saw the scene behind her through the lowered shoulder of the man.


    Not too far away, there were a few clouds slowly floating in the air. The weather today was also very good, but if he wasn''t in a place the size of a palm and was only a few steps away from the cliff and received a warm embrace, Xi Jiu Er would be willing to continue staying under the sunlight to enjoy a warm baptism.


    Xi Jiu Er''s body started to stiffen again, her hands and feet were held tightly by the man, and she seemed to have lost the ability to move. Just as the stiff feeling was about to spread to her face, the man behind him finally roared out, "Go."


    In a blink of an eye, Xi Jiu Er was in the man''s embrace with one hand and the other hand grabbed onto the huge boulder that was as thick as a wrist, using all of her strength to climb up.


    Only after Xi Jiu Er was carried by the man and placed on a huge rock did she dare to stroke her beating heart and peek at the scenery beneath the big rock.


    It was a deep abyss indeed, but the tree vines that the man used to climb were stuck in a barely discernible crack in the stone wall. Xi Jiu Er forced himself to resist his fear of heights as he stretched his head out to look at the crack in the ground. She saw a small space the size of a palm hidden under the giant boulder.


    "Stop looking, be careful that you don''t fall down later." The panting man on the ground saw Xi Jiu Er stick her head out to look at the scenery below the cliff, and immediately reminded her with good intentions.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly remembered that there was a man beside him. He pulled back his head and turned to look at that man.


    "Who the hell are you?"


    Xi Jiu Er, this good-looking man who suddenly popped out, asked the question that had been stifling in her heart for a long time. Although the man''s voice was a little cold, it had nothing to do with him, but she used her actions to show Xi Jiu Er that she was not a bad person.


    The man''s fair and handsome face revealed a sneer, "Who am I? "You are currently disguised as my wife and you don''t even know who I am?"


    After Xi Jiu Er heard this, her face reddened, and she exclaimed: "You''re the assistant minister of the Military Department?"


    The man frowned. "Assistant Minister of War?" "Don''t tell me you don''t know my name?"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded seriously: "I don''t know, Mu Qiu Shui only mentioned in the letter that a eunuch''s family''s Madame will come to the palace to pay her respects, at that time I will change into my Madame appearance and leave the palace."


    In fact, she thought that the reason why Mu Qiu Shui did not mention the name of Madame in the secret letter was to protect the family of the man who had taken the risk to help her escape from this place. When they were about to leave the palace, the attendant that came afterwards told her the identity of the man simply so that she would not reveal it when the time came.


    The man laughed. "Oh, that fellow was probably afraid that the secret letter would not reach you easily. He was able to protect my family from His Majesty the Emperor''s suspicion that I was the one who helped you!"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, with a face full of smiles, she became serious, "I thank the Vice Minister for his help."


    Xi Jiu Er slowly stood up and blessed the man. The man didn''t care about her status as the imperial concubine at all and only waved his hands, not stopping her subordinates.


    The man naturally accepted Xi Jiu Er''s bow without any hesitation. He sat down on the ground with his large thorns, broke off a piece of Kobold Grass and held it in his mouth. His playful and disrespectful attitude caused Xi Jiu Er to have a good impression of him.


    Xi Jiu Er sat in a rather uncomfortable position, her stomach was heavy and pressing against her body. After sitting for too long and having difficulty breathing comfortably, she stood up and slowly walked a few steps. Only then did she think about how long it had been since she last saw Mu Qiu Shui, and her heart was filled with worry.


    "Master, where is Prince Xian at the moment?"


    Xi Jiu Er was a little worried that Mu Qiu Shui would not appear yet, so she quickly asked the man.


    The man dug through the grass without raising his head, as if he was looking for something, "Don''t worry, he''ll appear after half a cup of tea at the latest."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded and walked a few steps, but she suddenly thought of a question, "Master, your Madame is still in my palace, if only ¡­"


    This time, the man didn''t wait for her to finish before answering, "It''s okay, that person wasn''t her. She''s probably still taking her afternoon nap!"


    Xi Jiu Er was confused, she stared straight at the man on the ground and did not reply.


    The man, who was searching for the Chi in the grass, calmly caught a fat Chi from the grass. He took a look at its fat body and threw it to the ground with a look of disdain.


    The word "too fat" had stimulated Xi Jiu Er''s nerves, she suddenly remembered that when the man had brought her back to the ground, she had solemnly sized herself up, and then silently turned around and laid down on a large tree to recuperate.


    His gaze and the plump knee in front of him were really the same.


    The man didn''t notice Xi Jiu Er''s bright red ears, he just continued to look for crickets in the grass by himself, and carefully explained the whole plan to her.


    It turned out that the man''s name was Gui You, and was also the original planner of the plan. The first part of the plan was similar to what was written in Mu Qiu Shui''s letter, but he had filled in a few more words regarding Gui You and his exchange of identities.

 C440

    This Gui You loved his wife, so of course she would let his own wife take the risk. In advance, he had a maid by her side go to the palace to carry out a plan in place of his wife.


    Then, when Xi Jiu Er successfully made it out of the palace, the maid would change his appearance and think of a way to get out of the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little surprised. When she first met this "Assistant Minister of the Military Department," other than the breathtaking young lady, she had not even realized that the other party was wearing a mask.


    There were countless disguisers who were so much more skilled than he was.


    When the man saw the amazement on Xi Jiu Er''s face, he laughed complacently, "My wife''s appearance is one of the best in this world. I believe that even the Imperial Concubine would willingly admit defeat!"


    Xi Jiu Er''s expression darkened, as she suddenly heard a group of cawing crows flying above her head.


    Xi Jiu Er did not want to provoke him, but she swore to be an honest woman, so she had no choice but to express the true feelings in her heart.


    "My lord, I''m actually very curious as to how the maid used this appearance changing technique to achieve such a high level of perfection."


    The man was stunned for a moment. He didn''t expect the other party to change the topic so quickly.


    "In this world, there are only two types of disguising techniques. One is the transformation from a female cosmetics technique, and the other is the meticulous creation from various animal skins. In the second middle school, several human skin masks are more fitting and comfortable, and also more lifelike."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, "But why can''t I see the fit on her face? Although I can''t say that I am 100% sure of the scars on her face after seeing her disguise, I should be able to see through them a little. However, when that maid and I looked at each other and smiled, I couldn''t see a single trace of a smile on her face. "


    "Do you know that although this second disguise technique is simple, it is not only used on one''s face. If her entire head, along with a strand of hair, were to follow her, how confident would you be to be able to tell?"


    Xi Jiu Er took a cold breath, this was clearly a fake, "So that''s the case, Master''s meaning is that the woman has a mask over her head? A whole head? Isn''t that uncomfortable! "


    The man reprimanded her coldly, "If you want to be comfortable, then why are you still here as a maid? Why don''t you just go home and get married."


    Xi Jiu Er was in a bit of a predicament. After being scolded by him, her cheeks were a little red. She stood in place with her stomach held up, not knowing how to continue.


    The man, on the other hand, was like a thunderstorm in the summer, and he came and left as quickly as he could, treating it as if he was talking about family matters. He didn''t pay much attention to the man and continued to speak, "I made that out of a woman''s skin that was twenty-eight years old, so that mask would fit her skin very well. As long as you don''t wear it for a long time, there won''t be too much of a problem."


    "So it''s a human skin mask?" Xi Jiu Er trembled. Although she knew that this human skin mask was a top-grade material in disguise, but she had still taken it off her body. The bloody scene made Xi Jiu Er''s skin crawl.


    But the man didn''t care at all, "So what if it''s a human skin mask? If not for this human skin mask, Imperial Concubine would probably still be in the Deep Palace, thinking about how to escape. "


    Xi Jiu Er heard his tone of voice which was full of ridicule, and did not continue the conversation, turning around and sitting back on the boulder.


    Xi Jiu Er quietly sat on top of a rock. Sometimes she would look at the clouds in the sky, and sometimes she would look at the steep cliffs on top of the cliff. The two cliffs faced each other, and the clouds in the middle were luxuriant, it was like a fairyland.


    The two of them ignored each other and started working on their own things. Xi Jiu Er folded some dogtail grass and made a grass hoop to pass the time, while Gui You sat on the ground, laying on the grass and carefully went to arrest the crickets. The two of them stayed at peace.


    Xi Jiu Er''s ten fingers moved as if they were butterflies, smoothing and inserting the dogtail grass into the grass ring made from the roots. She then carefully picked one of the stalks of grass from the boulder beside him and planned to continue walking into the ring.


    He heard clear footsteps coming from the forest next to him.


    Xi Jiu Er subconsciously shook off the grass rings in her hand, and was about to hide in the grass, but Gui You who was at the side unhurriedly stood up and brushed off the dirt on his body, spitting it out slowly: "After so long, it''s finally here, Little Sis, don''t run, the person you''re waiting for is here."


    Xi Jiu Er stopped in her tracks, and immediately retracted her foot. She moved with great difficulty while holding her stomach, completely lacking the nimbleness and nimbleness she had when she was ready to escape.


    Xi Jiu Er was a few steps behind Gui You, and subconsciously hid behind him. Hearing the footsteps that gradually approached, he tried to straighten her body, and stretched her head out from beside the man''s arm to take a peek.


    Dressed in red, Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were pierced by the familiar color before she finally remembered the identity of the person.


    Isn''t it just the famous and beautiful Great Beijing Dynasty who had a very close relationship with him, Mu Qiu Shui?


    When Xi Jiu Er saw who it was, she let go of the boulder in her heart. She walked out from behind Gui You and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.


    For a moment, Mu Qiu Shui saw the familiar figures not too far away and immediately dispersed.


    With that in mind, Xi Jiu Er, who had been worrying about her for many days, unharmed stood in front of him, causing Mu Qiu Shui to heave a long sigh of relief. The entire journey had been long and arduous, and he had hurried here worn and dusty as he only wanted to save her from the sea of fire.


    Even if the one whom he loved was about to become someone else''s mother, the child was not his own.


    Mu Qiu Shui never liked to demand anything. As long as Xi Jiu Er could live a happy life without worries, even if she had to seal her heart for the rest of her life, he would be willing.


    A cool breeze blew past the mountains, dispersing the black hair that had slipped past Xi Jiu Er''s ears. The afterglow of the sunlight that was shining on the forest behind was a layer of warmth, as if it was a priceless treasure.


    Gui You tactfully waved her hand to call the servants behind Mu Qiu Shui, leaving room for the other two servants to reminisce.


    Mu Qiu Shui was still dressed in his scarlet red clothes, but they were not as elegant and elegant as they were in the past. He looked like a popinjay, with his tight-fitting scarlet clothes that were inlaid with golden silk and looked like a peony.

 C441

    Xi Jiu Er''s eyebrows curved, "Qiushui, Jiu Er thanks you for saving my life," as she finished speaking, she blessed herself slightly.


    Hearing that, Mu Qiu Shui frowned, she then pretended to be angry, "Such restraint, how is it still my close friend from the past?"


    The smile on Xi Jiu Er''s face became even more obvious, and the look in her eyes became even more watery than before, "Then, can Jiu Er pretend to be rude?"


    Mu Qiu Shui gave a "puchi" laugh, and in an instant, he seemed to flash like a bright pearl, shining brilliantly for countless of meters; his brilliance was not inferior to that of a peerless genius.


    Xi Jiu Er lightly pushed the black hair on her temples behind her ear and smiled warmly, "Why is Autumn Water meeting me only now? Why is it so different from the plan? "


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly thought of the most puzzling question, and asked softly.


    It was as if someone had touched on something which made him furious. It was only after his expression changed a few times that he finally told Xi Jiu Er about what happened today.


    It turned out that Mu Qiu Shui was already waiting in Gui You''s residence for the guards to bring him back home at five o''clock today. Unexpectedly, a spy in Gui You''s residence discovered his figure, and in order to confirm that it was really the Great Beijing Dynasty from the Great Beijing Dynasty that was present in the assistant minister''s residence, he snuck into the backyard. He secretly saw the two people his subordinate was chatting tea away, and wanted to sneak out to inform his master.


    However, even the slightest movement outside the courtyard could not escape his ears. Maybe it was because the spy was anxious to release the news, and broke a dried up branch under his feet in a hurry, but although the sound was not loud, it was enough to attract Mu Qiu Shui''s attention.


    His lightness and inner force were among the best in the entire Great Beijing Dynasty, so he did not even need to expend much effort. He managed to turn his body around and lean on the wall a few times, and in the instant he swallowed the tea, the thin old man''s body fell to the ground one step away from Mu Qiu Shui.


    Mu Qiu Shui waved his hands and summoned the guards in the dark to clean up the corpse. Then, he slowly walked back to the courtyard with his hands behind his back.


    "There''s a large number of imperial guards out there searching, and they say that Great Beijing Dynasty''s spies have infiltrated their homes, so every household, whether it''s the prime ministers from left to right, or the commoners, must go door to door and search them."


    Before Gui You could reply, she heard Mu Qiu Shui sneer, "A spy from the Great Beijing Dynasty? "Hahaha!"


    Although Mu Qiu Shui had a smile on his face that was as bright as spring, his eyes were capable of freezing all living things into ice scraps.


    Gui You waved to let the guards behind him go out, "You should still go to hide, there''s a porcelain jar in the right side room that has a picture of a blue and white pestle crane, reach down to the lowest point, there''s a pull ring, if you pull it out, you''ll see a wall rising, when you go down, remember to wear more, the moisture below is cold, don''t freeze over."


    The corner of Mu Qiu Shui''s mouth hooked up as he gave a cold laugh filled with arrogance and evil, "Is this king even afraid of that bit of coldness? "It''s not like she''s a woman."


    After Mu Qiu Shui finished walking up the endless steps, he saw a slightly bright speck of light, which followed the speck of light, and very soon, he arrived at this place.


    He thought that Gui You would wait for the guard to bring him down there, but he didn''t expect to hear Feng Qing Cheng''s blessings. Fortunately, the other party didn''t know that there was someone there, and only prayed in a temple not too far away, bathing in incense.


    It was also Mu Qiu Shui''s fault for being curious at the moment. He wanted to see the dignified Wind Nation Emperor, who was wearing a cassock and was pretending to be a monk chanting in front of the Buddha, before sneaking in.


    After seeing the Wind Nation wearing a monastic robe and the cinnabar mole on his forehead while he was kneeling in front of the Buddha and mumbling a prayer, Mu Qiu Shui, who was hiding on the roof beam, could not help but smile and burst out laughing uncontrollably.


    In the quiet room, the laughter had successfully caught Feng Qing Cheng''s attention. He glared at him and bellowed, "Who wants to buy that place?"


    When Mu Qiu Shui heard the heavy footsteps outside, he realized his situation. He knew that if he did not leave soon, it would bring about a disaster.


    Mu Qiu Shui used a move, "Summon the tiger out of the mountain", and successfully escaped the tragedy of the blood splashed temple.


    He thought that since he had escaped, the other party would find nothing in the temple, and with Feng Qing Cheng''s suspicious personality, as long as there was even the slightest movement, he would send soldiers to kill him.


    Mu Qiu Shui sprinted all the way, but he had a pair of elite soldiers lead them into the forest. He wanted to follow the same path they came from, but who would have thought that the black hole that was emitting cold air would suddenly disappear.


    Fortunately, the mountain was large enough, and it was lush with vegetation. Any place where he could hide would allow him to hide within the mountain.


    However, he did not expect the elite soldiers that he had attracted would be so close to grabbing Xi Jiu Er. He could not help but feel fear in his heart, he himself did not care, but Xi Jiu Er was different, if she was caught, she would not have the chance to escape.


    He couldn''t help but feel fear.


    After hearing it, Xi Jiu Er was confused, "The cave disappeared into thin air?"


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed, "Actually, it was only later on that I realized that the other place wasn''t some cave but a barrier that connected his house to the mountain. Do you know where this mountain is?"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, just now he said that she saw Feng Qing Cheng''s attire, and it should be the Moon''s Breath Mountain, where the temple was located today.


    "Moon''s Breath Mountain?" Xi Jiu Er tilted her head and thought.


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded: "That''s right."


    Xi Jiu Er cried out in alarm, "If that is the case, then how can the Vice Minister hide his true strength?"


    "Gui You comes from the most mysterious sect in the martial arts world. It''s said that there are immortals in the sects too, the Five Elements Eight Trigrams, Mysterious Armor, Immortal Cultivation Technique, all of them are good. Look at his face, how old do you think he is?"


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, thought for a moment, "More than twenty?"


    Mu Qiu Shui smiled mysteriously, "This year, he will be around 150 years old."


    Xi Jiu Er was so shocked that her mouth gaped wide open, and couldn''t close for a long while.


    Mu Qiu Shui was very satisfied with Xi Jiu Er''s response. He reached out to support her and called out to Gui You as well.


    Xi Jiu Er never thought that such a young man in front of him would actually be over a hundred years old.


    As for this mysterious sect, she had heard of it before. Hearing Mu Qiu Shui''s description, she felt that it was very similar to the sect her grandfather came from previously.

 C442

    However, the sect was too mysterious and people entering and exiting the sect were not allowed to reveal even a tiny bit of it, so people in the martial world all knew that there was such a mysterious sect, but they didn''t know its name or where it was hiding.


    This time, the group of people entered the cave unexpectedly and felt warm like spring, just like the scenery outside the mountain. It was as if the cold cave they passed through earlier was just an illusion.


    A few more people came out from the walls and turned into a room. Gui You immediately called for the little girl to bring Xi Jiu Er out of the room, and when Xi Jiu Er came out, he immediately changed her appearance and covered her with a human skin mask.


    Although Xi Jiu Er rejected the human skin mask more or less, but she couldn''t openly oppose Gui You''s bloody and cruel methods in front of everyone''s eyes. She could only endure the shadow of the human skin mask and let the other party put it on for him.


    However, he never expected that this human skin mask would be especially close to his skin. It was not as skin tanned as the deer skin he usually used to make masks. Every time he took it off, his face would become swollen and swollen for half a day.


    This caused Xi Jiu Er to be filled with admiration towards Gui You''s disguise technique, and how he dared to kill a living person? Or perhaps it was the dead person''s skin that was cut off to make this human skin mask. Xi Jiu Er felt guilty, because with her personality, she was only made into a skin mask by others, not the person who made the mask.


    Furthermore, a human skin mask was not something that could be made so easily. It was said that it would take at least half a month to completely remove the blood and all sorts of suppression from a human skin mask, let alone a secret mask.


    Under the little girl''s support, Xi Jiu Er''s hand seemingly unintentionally touched his cheek, but in his heart, he felt a wave of cold disgust, so disgusted that he felt sour water.


    When the little girl saw Xi Jiu Er covering her mouth with her hand, and her forehead creased into a "chuan", she finally realised that this cousin Miss was extremely happy, and at the moment, there was nothing she could do to hold onto the filth, she could only grit her teeth, and with a stomp, she opened up her flower dress, turned and walked to Xi Jiu Er, "Miss, puke here."


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er looked at the group she displayed, as if she was not afraid of death. Her eyes were tightly shut, obviously afraid of Xi Jiu Er ruining her flowery skirt.


    Xi Jiu Er covered her mouth, shook her head, pushed him away and threw up on the railing, but she didn''t eat anything today, so other than a puddle of sour water, there was nothing else.


    "Miss, wipe the corner of your mouth," the little girl opened her eyes and looked at her flowery dress that was as white as new. She felt a sense of pity in her heart.


    Xi Jiu Er took the handkerchief and wiped the corner of her mouth, one hand holding onto the railing, just now she was vomiting a little ferociously, to the point that her feet were sore, and she could only stand in place for a moment to catch her breath.


    The little girl went forward to support her, and said gently, "Watch Miss, please let Servant support you, walk slowly, otherwise your legs will go numb," Xi Jiu Er nodded, and felt a little dizzy.


    Xi Jiu Er rubbed her eyes, the dizziness she felt was almost gone, so she followed the little girl and left.


    Gui You gave Xi Jiu Er the identity of his own little cousin, and also randomly concocted a "come with me" to the capital city. Husband went to a few small areas in the vicinity to purchase some goods, and left Xi Jiu Er to temporarily stay at his own residence. He also casually mentioned that just now, because they were in a hurry, they all rushed back from the back door.


    Of course, the little girl didn''t know why her master had to bring her cousin in through the back door for such a heavy task, so she didn''t have any interest in it. While everyone successfully fooled her, she also sent a message to everyone in the mansion, saying that there was an important guest in the mansion.


    Gui You arranged the most remote courtyard for Xi Jiu Er. The courtyard was very quiet, with the scent of orchids and the sound of running water.


    Xi Jiu Er loved this gurgling sound the most. She didn''t know where the water came from and it flowed around the entire courtyard towards the back of the mountain.


    These few days in Gui You''s residence were the most leisurely and carefree days of Xi Jiu Er''s time. With Mu Qiu Shui''s existence by her side, all of those worries were given to him. It was not because she was selfish, but because this person''s existence made her feel at ease.


    However, a few days later, Mu Qiu Shui had specially come to see her. Although she would usually accompany him to chat and chat, the atmosphere today made her faintly feel that something bad would happen.


    Mu Qiu Shui walked into Xi Jiu Er''s room with large strides, and took out a shirt that was neither thick nor thin, and wrapped it around her, "I''m afraid I have to leave the Assistant Minister''s Residence today."


    Xi Jiu Er looked up at him, "Why?"


    Mu Qiu Shui frowned, without saying anything else, he turned and supported her out of the courtyard.


    The assistant minister''s house was not big, so Mu Qiu Shui led Xi Jiu Er down the most remote path, and in the time it took to brew a cup of tea, they left the house from the back door.


    Along the way, the two of them did not see half a maid or servant, and it was common for people to not see them at the back gate, but was surprised that they did not see him.


    Mu Qiu Shui carried Xi Jiu Er onto the carriage and personally carried the carriage away.


    As Xi Jiu Er sat in the bumpy horse carriage, the doubts in her heart gradually rose, and in the end, he could only find Mu Qiu Shui to resolve them for her.


    Xi Jiu Er parted the curtain, called Mu Qiu Shui who was focused on riding the horse, and asked suspiciously, "Why are we in such a hurry today? Where''s the assistant minister? "Why aren''t you seeing him?"


    Mu Qiu Shui thought for a while, then handed the horsewhip in his hand to the servants by the side, and turned back into the carriage.


    Mu Qiu Shui, on the other hand, was honest and told her everything that had happened in the past few days.


    So it turned out that Mu Qiu Shui had planned to rush back to the Great Beijing Dynasty as soon as possible after he found Xi Jiu Er. There were still a bunch of troublesome matters to deal with, and Mu Qiu Shui had also intentionally brought a few elites with him when he left the imperial city.


    He came to the Wind Nation and the first person he found was Gui You, because the two of them were probably good friends who had known each other for many years. Coincidentally, Gui You happened to be another master who helped her friends along both sides, and as Gui You''s only friend, Mu Qiu Shui decisively used this privilege to find Gui You privately and entrust the matter of Xi Jiu Er''s disappearance to him, before hiding in her residence for quite a few days.


    Until the two of them successfully rescued Xi Jiu Er, and planned to sneak out of the imperial city that very night, but no one in the assistant minister''s house leaked the news, causing the emperor to send people to search for them. However, Gui You managed to barely fool Feng Qing Cheng after he started his self-made, self-directed, and painstakingly acted out drama.


    Mu Qiu Shui immediately sent people and some of his hidden subordinates, as well as some of the elite soldiers lying in wait outside the city, but he did not expect to get such shocking news.


    It was unknown who had secretly killed all of Mu Qiu Shui''s subordinates and elite soldiers outside of the city the day before yesterday. No one knew who it was that had killed them so far.

 C443

    But today, Feng Qing Cheng called Gui You into the palace again early in the morning. Mu Qiu Shui vaguely felt that something was amiss, he called for a few servants by his side and found a carriage, then hurriedly carried Xi Jiu Er onto the horse carriage and galloped out of the city.


    In these few days, Feng Qing Cheng had already set up layers of checkpoints on the road to the different countries.


    Currently, according to Mu Qiu Shui''s side, they wouldn''t be able to bring Xi Jiu Er out of her confinement and smoothly return to the Great Beijing Dynasty. The only thing they could do now was to think of a way to spread the news and wait for the Wei Guogong to send someone to pick them up.


    Right now, the most important thing was to find a place to hide.


    Of course, Mu Qiu Shui had already thought of this important problem and how he could solve it.


    A few days ago, Gui You had hypothesized that if a few people were unable to escape from the pursuers, and at the same time, were unable to continue staying in Gui You''s residence, then they would have to find another person to take care of.


    As for how to find another one, Gui You had long planned it out for them. Gui You used her savings of many years to buy a bamboo house in a small village on the outskirts of the city, and also bought a bustling and luxurious mansion in the busy city area.


    Everyone in the city knew about the mansion, but no one knew about the bamboo house that he secretly bought, so Gui You let them live in the village.


    Today, the city gate had already given up on martial law and it was almost the same as usual. Besides routine inspections, there were basically no harsh requirements.


    Arriving at the city gate, Mu Qiu Shui ordered the servant to pass them a few shiny silver bars, and then left while being worshipped by the guards.


    By the time the group of people reached the small village mentioned by Gui You, they were already on the branches of the willow tree. After a few more people searched for a while, they finally found the bamboo house that stood out from the rest at the end of the village.


    The bamboo house looked very new, and there was a patch of green bamboo growing around it. Xi Jiu Er and the others were curious if Gui You was a "Bamboo Narcissist", as this house was filled with green bamboo leaves, and this village was surrounded by those cold-resistant plants, yet he was the one who had to plant a piece of jade green bamboo forest. It was really an old man''s idea, but us youngsters didn''t understand.


    Mu Qiu Shui called for the servants to take everything off the carriages and he helped Xi Jiu Er into the bamboo house. After pushing open the door, he took out a fire piston, and with a sway of the wind, he saw the flickering flame of a candle.


    Seeing that the person had left, Xi Jiu Er heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately wanted to struggle free from Prince Xian''s embrace. However, he was unable to free himself, and could only helplessly raise his head to look at Prince Xian.


    "Let go? How can I let go? " Prince Xian began to tease again, then he muttered next to Xi Jiu Er''s ear. The hot air that was exhaled from his mouth when he spoke hit Xi Jiu Er''s pink earlobes, quickly dyeing Xi Jiu Er''s earlobes with a bright red color. He was extremely cute, to the point that Prince Xian wanted to bite his, but he knew that he couldn''t.


    Regretfully, he let go of Xi Jiu Er. Prince Xian suddenly asked in a serious tone, "Jiu Er, do you want to escape from the Imperial Palace? I can help you. " Prince Xian used me, not this king who had a strong sense of distance.


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er raised her head in surprise, she did not understand why the person in front of him would help her: "Why?"


    Seeing the puzzlement and doubt in the eyes of the beauty in front of him, Prince Xian laughed bitterly in his heart, but suddenly started to tease her: "It''s just because you''re Jiu Er!" Because you are Jiu Er, I am willing to help you. No matter what you do, I am willing to be by your side. Prince Xian added in his heart.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the evildoer in front of her, and she accidentally got scared by the burning look in his eyes. However, just by looking at the look in his eyes, she knew that he was serious and was truly willing to help her.


    Xi Jiu Er bit her lower lip. She suddenly realised, as though she had no other choice but to agree to her request. She felt that if she did not agree, then this person would probably secretly follow behind her.


    Thinking about that, Xi Jiu Er raised her head, her clear yet determined gaze directly striking into Prince Xian''s eyes: "Okay."


    It was just a light and light calligraphy word, but Prince Xian felt that his heart was filled with sweetness, and his entire body seemed to float along with it. However, the two of them were not yet in a safe place, so he could only forcefully suppress the joy in his heart.


    After the Prince Xian obtained Xi Jiu Er''s permission, he pulled Xi Jiu Er''s hand and walked towards the carriage that was outside the palace. For once, Xi Jiu Er did not resist.


    After getting on the carriage, Xi Jiu Er gently lifted the curtains of the carriage, and took one last look at the gradually disappearing palace. In her heart, she silently said: "Goodbye, Imperial Palace!" Then she closed the curtain.


    He was afraid that Xi Jiu Er wouldn''t be able to bear to part with the imperial palace, and couldn''t bear to part with that man in the imperial palace, so he suddenly went back again. Although he knew that this possibility didn''t exist, he couldn''t bear to part with one from him.


    The carriage did not stop at the place where the Prince Xian was at, instead they directly exited the city and arrived at the city gate. Prince Xian didn''t exit the carriage, he only carried Xi Jiu Er in his arms and passed him a pass through the carriage''s window.


    The guard at the city gate looked at the proof and then nodded his head and bowed. He did not even check inside the carriage and just let the two leave.


    After exiting the city, only then did Prince Xian open his mouth and ask, "Do you really want to know why I directly left the city gate?"


    Xi Jiu Er nodded, her obsidian eyes staring straight at Prince Xian, stubbornly waiting for her to give a satisfactory explanation.


    Prince Xian rubbed his forehead and laughed: "Tell me, if that person discovered that his imperial harem was missing a person, what would he do?"


    "Seal off the city gates, search house to house!" Xi Jiu Er blurted out.


    "Little brat, you''re quite smart!" The Prince Xian smiled and nodded at Xi Jiu Er''s head, then placed both of his hands behind her head and leaned on the carriage as he leisurely said, "We were only fighting to every minute and every second to leave the city before he discovered us. However, he will very soon realize that we won''t be able to hide for long, especially since you''re already pregnant."


    "Then what should we do?" Xi Jiu Er grabbed onto Prince Xian''s collar and said anxiously: "If he found out, I''ll be fine. After all, I still have a biological son in my stomach. What are you going to do? The crime of assisting the palace concubine in absconding may be huge or small. "


    Prince Xian stared at Xi Jiu Er and saw her anxious expression. After a long while, when Xi Jiu Er twisted her body a little unnaturally, Prince Xian suddenly laughed mysteriously: "Don''t worry about me." As he spoke, he rubbed Xi Jiu Er''s little head, "I heard someone say that you''re an idiot for three years, so don''t think too much into it. If you don''t think about who this duke is, how could something happen to this duke so easily?"


    Xi Jiu Er thought that it was true, but at this moment, she suddenly felt a pain in her abdomen. Clutching her stomach, she groaned in pain, and her right hand unconsciously grabbed onto Prince Xian''s wrist tightly.

 C444

    Xi Jiu Er really wanted to hide in the space and then drink a mouthful of the space''s holy water. She knew that only that type of water would be able to cause her pain, but the person in front of her, didn''t know she had this sort of mysterious space. For her sake, she couldn''t reveal the existence of her own space, even if this person was so deep in love with her.


    Therefore, Xi Jiu Er could only endure the pain in her stomach, and then, said intermittently: "No ¡­ Nothing, normal... Normal Response... Find a place... Just rest. " However, because of the intense pain, the sweat on her forehead was enough to make her disguise look bad. But at this time, she couldn''t care less.


    When Prince Xian heard him, he lifted the curtains and looked out the window. After thinking for a moment, he told the carriage driver to quickly drive to the nearest village where very few people would go. This way, he could temporarily settle down.


    However, because they didn''t walk on the mountain roads often, the road was bumpy, the horse carriage bumpy and Xi Jiu Er almost vomited out everything. Fortunately, she didn''t eat anything today, so she was only retching and nothing else.


    Since Xi Jiu Er was prepared to escape, shshekept Qiu Qiu in his space. When she saw his master''s miserable state from inside the space, Qiu Qiu had always wanted to go out and take care of his master, but when he raised his claws, he realized that his form was that of a cat. He could only helplessly give up on the idea of going out to take care of his master. With regards to this, Qiu Qiu suddenly resented that he was unable to help his master, and felt sorry for his master''s misfortune.


    The carriage finally arrived at a small village that was like a paradise. Prince Xian quickly supported the sick Xi Jiu Er off the carriage, and after taking his luggage, he got his coachman to drive the carriage over to the mansion.


    Due to the remote location of the village, the villagers rarely came into contact with outsiders. One by one, they came out to watch curiously.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the group of innocent faces in front of him, and suddenly had a limitless yearning and yearning to live here.


    Xi Jiu Er, who had finally managed to catch a breath, was faced with so many clear eyes, she could not help but feel a little embarrassed. She could only tug on Prince Xian''s sleeve in embarrassment, indicating that he needed to deal with it.


    Prince Xian used his long sleeve and dancing skills, quickly conquering all the simple villagers, and Xi Jiu Er was quickly settled down by the passionate villagers. There were even villagers who went to find a doctor for Xi Jiu Er to take a look.


    The rural people did not lie. Xi Jiu Er could feel their simplicity and kindness, and then compare them with the self-deceit that existed deep in the palace.


    As for the young couple, the villagers were happy to see them. The most spacious area on the side of the village just happened to have an empty house.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little embarrassed, but she only brought gold, silver, and jewelry with her. She did not want to sully the villagers with her smell, so she simply wanted to make a table of sumptuous food for them. Unexpectedly, the village chief had already prepared a feast for them.


    It was a long line of Liu Shui''s feast. There were a few hundred people in the village, and almost all of them were present, welcoming the new neighbors.


    According to the Sixth Aunt at the head of the village, the deepest part of the village was a mountain. If not for his big belly, Xi Jiu Er would have definitely gone over to take a look.


    Liu Shui''s feast was very lively, as though it was a celebration of a holiday. All the food that he brought with him in the palace was also taken out by them and distributed to everyone.


    "Good girl, eat some sugar!" Prince Xian gently caressed the head of a child, then placed a handful of sweets in his hands.


    "Thank you." The child replied, then skipped off. Being with the child was Prince Xian''s most gentle time.


    "Our children must be so cute, too." Looking at the child''s back, Prince Xian was a little entranced.


    "I hope the child doesn''t have a venomous tongue like you." With that, Xi Jiu Er left indifferently, "Sixth Aunt! I''m here. " She waved her hand.


    "I hope the baby doesn''t eat like his mother does." The Prince Xian quietly said.


    After getting pregnant, Xi Jiu Er had a special way of eating. After all, they had only eaten together, but the Prince Xian always said that she had a craving for food.


    "Then be careful when you sleep. Don''t fall asleep at any time. I''ll eat you too." Xi Jiu Er made a fierce expression and then turned around. She placed an Agate bracelet on Sixth Aunt''s hand.


    In the palace, sometimes people would send gifts to others to win over people''s hearts, Xi Jiu Er disapproved but Sixth Aunt was overwhelmed by the favour, after rejecting it for a while, she was unable to refuse Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er only said that these were some small things and that she really liked this mountain village. In the blink of an eye, the banquet started, and the villagers tried their best to bring out the best items to entertain them.


    After toasting, Prince Xian was in high spirits. He had not even heard of the opera in the little mountain village, let alone sing.


    Prince Xian raised his wine cup, his exquisite face turning slightly red. He was no longer as mischievous as before, "Thank you for everyone''s hospitality!" As the Prince Xian raised his hands, a wave of heroic spirit spread, drinking it all in one gulp.


    Then, she looked at Xi Jiu Er with deep emotions.


    "There''s a good girl in a faraway place. When people walk past her tent, they would look at her lovingly ¡­"


    Prince Xian''s somewhat loud voice slowly came out, like a spring water, flowing in the heart, gentle and long.


    Everyone was moved by the beautiful voice, the few hundred people were silent, watching Prince Xian sing loudly.


    After a long while, the singing finished. Prince Xian was no longer the playful him, with a red face and the smell of alcohol, he stared at Xi Jiu Er''s beautiful face.


    Everyone around them burst out in cheers and applause, a few young girls secretly sent them away, staring at Prince Xian lovingly. They wanted to strike up a conversation, but were too embarrassed to say anything.


    A few young men came over to toast him. "Let me toast you all." As he spoke, he raised his glass and drained it in one gulp.


    The arrival of Xi Jiu Er and Yue Yang made the village feel like they were celebrating. The flow of Prince Xian was also not bad, wearing a red robe, like a big flower.


    "I''m so happy today. I''ll stay here from now on and wait for my son to be born." Prince Xian sat down, then lay on the ground next to Xi Jiu Er''s stomach and said, "Little guy, do you want to have a drink too?" And then she laughed like a child.


    Xi Jiu Er did not know whether to laugh or cry with this older child, as if harassing her stomach was impossible, after eating his fill, the Prince Xian supported Xi Jiu Er back home.


    Although the room was small, it was clean and tidy. Although it was incomparable to the palace, Xi Jiu Er was already very satisfied.

 C445

    "What about you? The most important thing is that you are in a good mood." As the Prince Xian spoke, he began to make Xi Jiu Er''s bed. He was proficient in techniques, to the point it was hard to imagine that was actually a prince.


    Xi Jiu Er was now the Empress, and Prince Xian seemed to have become a ''little sage''.


    "You say that you''re lazy and stupid, but what about it?" Unknowingly, he had already brought out a basin of hot water.


    "Wash my feet!" Prince Xian pretended to be strict.


    Xi Jiu Er glared at him but did not resist. She obediently extended her legs, her fair legs were as white as snow, which made it difficult for Xi Jiu Er to move around when she was pregnant. Furthermore, the two of them did not have any secrets about each other.


    While Prince Xian washed his feet, he also massaged Xi Jiu Er. The massage was just right, comfortable and gentle.


    Xi Jiu Er enjoyed it silently. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was ignoring him, Prince Xian smiled wickedly, and after washing his feet, he covered his nose: "The massage is very good, but the feet are too ugly."


    Saying that, she wiped her hands, carried the water basin and quickly escaped. Xi Jiu Er acted as if he wanted to kick him.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at her swollen belly that was like a ball, gently caressing it, looking forward to her own child''s birth. Her body was slowly releasing a kind of female light, it was extremely enchanting.


    Prince Xian went out to get some water, but when he opened the door, he nearly bumped into someone. He was shocked and focused his sight, he saw a young girl holding a basket, she was just about to knock on the door.


    The two of them were stunned at the same time, the Prince Xian revealed a mischievous smile, making the girl feel embarrassed.


    "Cunninghamia lanceolata L, there isn''t much good stuff in the village either. This is a jujube from my family. It can help replenish your blood, so let me feed it to my sister-in-law."


    This person was the village flower Xiao Hong. She handed the basket over to Prince Xian and then left while blushing.


    Not long later, Prince Xian returned with a basket in his hands.


    "Big jujube, don''t you want this?" With that, the Prince Xian helped Xi Jiu Er wash jujube. Because the food was already distributed yesterday, Xi Jiu Er just so happened to be greedy for it.


    The jujube in the mountain was full and sweet, and one could smell its fragrance from far away. Right now, it was not like in the palace, where Xi Jiu Er was so greedy that she was about to drool.


    "Right, where did the dates come from?" It was as if her brain was a little slow after getting pregnant, and only asked after eating the second Xi Jiu Er.


    "Little Red." Prince Xian revealed a look of reminiscence. Needless to say, Xiao Hong looked quite fresh and refined, but she had been in the palace all year long. What kind of beauty hadn''t she seen before?


    "Look at your face, you look like a pig, your eyes must have almost come out by then." Xi Jiu Er said snappily.


    Hearing Xi Jiu Er''s reply, even if it was not good words, Prince Xian was still very happy.


    "As for me, I just want to guard this area and wait for my wife and children to warm up the brick bed." Prince Xian was also poor mouthed, but Xi Jiu Er was also enjoying it very much.


    The two of them settled down in the house. It could be considered warm inside, since the villagers had sent some daily necessities to them.


    He wanted to buy some more things for Xi Jiu Er. The morning of the next day, Prince Xian woke up early, looked at Xi Jiu Er who was still sleeping soundly, and kissed her on the forehead.


    Xi Jiu Er was still asleep, but she smiled slightly. Prince Xian did not want to disturb her, so after putting on her clothes, she stood up, the sun was already shining brightly, and there were many people walking around in the village, greeting her passionately.


    "Cunninghamia lanceolata L!"


    "Autumn Water."


    Everyone greeted Prince Xian one by one, showing him how popular he was, especially those children who called him Uncle Qiushui.


    There were a lot of cultivated land in the village, the Prince Xian had long yearned for the life of a man farming women weaving. The men in the village normally cultivated land, adding the raising of livestock, they could basically be self-sufficient.


    When Prince Xian walked into the fields, the men were all sweating profusely. They found a fertile land and asked for some seeds. Prince Xian returned home satisfied.


    At that moment, Xi Jiu Er at home looked forward to it. It was not convenient to have a big belly, and she was not idle either.


    When they heard that there was a mountain, they couldn''t wait to take a look and listen to the conversation between Sixth Aunt and the others. There was still a story inside the mountain.


    When the wolf came to the village, he took one of the two newborns with him, but the other baby was safe and sound.


    The remaining child, the one who was doing good deeds and doing good deeds, the one who was taken away, was the only family in the village that people didn''t like.


    That family was narrow-minded. Previously, the man from that family had even killed someone. This was a huge matter in this simple and unadorned village.


    It was said that that family had angered the immortals and punished them. As a result, this mountain became more and more divine.


    After returning home, Prince Xian did not stay idle either. He opened a plot of land in the courtyard and spread some strawberries on the ground. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to eat fresh strawberries in a while.


    "I heard that the mountain is as big as a pig''s size, I want to go pick some mushrooms." Xi Jiu Er said.


    There was no entertainment in the village either, Xi Jiu Er had been waiting anxiously for a long time, the Prince Xian saw that she had already cleaned up everything properly.


    "If there really is a wolf at that time, I don''t know if I''ll eat you, little pig." Prince Xian made a frightened face.


    Xi Jiu Er immediately hesitated, she touched her own stomach, afraid that something might happen to the fetus.


    Prince Xian smiled. He had already asked the villagers about this. As long as they did not enter deep into the forest, there would be no danger.


    And within this mountain, most of them were beautiful wildflowers, which were also a good place to relax. Seeing Xi Jiu Er at home, who was too bored, the Prince Xian had long had the intention of bringing her out to play.


    The two of them cleaned up a bit. Xi Jiu Er also planned to rest and recuperate when she returned this time. The two of them headed towards the mountain, and not long later, they saw the dense forest.


    All of this formed a beautiful scene in Xi Jiu Er''s eyes. She lowered her head and gently caressed his stomach, the fetus in her abdomen had just kicked him, it was extremely mischievous, but it suddenly quietened down. It seemed like it was attracted by the beautiful voice.


    Xi Jiu Er had a new understanding of the rumors in the mountain village. It was said that the behavior of the baby in the stomach, after birth, was related to the education of the baby, and it seemed to be related to the truth. It seemed that the baby was enjoying the beautiful music here, as he slowly closed his eyes and tried to feel the present, trying to pass on the feelings he had for the baby.


    That''s right! The scenery here was really good! hugged Xi Jiu Er from the back and whispered into her ear.


    Naturally, Prince Xian did not see all of this and continued to speak by his ear, "In the future, our child will be a boy. To teach him martial arts, he has to be brave, and we will watch our son grow up together.

 C446

    Xi Jiu Er''s heart was in turmoil, she was moved by these words, but she couldn''t be selfish. This man was too perfect, her own child was not his flesh and blood, and yet she thought of all sorts of things for. What else could she ask for, but ¡­


    Xi Jiu Er sighed! She touched Prince Xian''s hand and slowly walked away, saying, "The child isn''t born yet, don''t make such a conclusion, you should also find someone to accompany you. If there''s a chance, mine is a boy, yours is a girl, you can think about the future of the two. After saying that, her face blushed a lot. She didn''t even know that she would say such words, and her heart was filled with disappointment.


    The cool breeze made them feel comfortable. In front of them was the kind mother caressing the fetus in her womb, the man behind looked at them with concern.


    How could the Prince Xian not understand? In order to break the awkward silence, he said, "Why did you say that? You are pregnant right now, so you can''t use your fetus energy." He slowly walked towards Xi Jiu Er and helped her sit on the chair.


    Prince Xian looked at Xi Jiu Er who was sitting on a bench and said seriously, "Yeah? I was getting old and it was time for me to have a home. I liked someone, but there were special circumstances, and I didn''t care. I was willing to spend my life with her.


    Who is it? I think she will be happy. Xi Jiu Er asked curiously. For some reason, her heart ached.


    I don''t know how she felt in her heart, but I was hurt by her words, so I can only take care of her, as long as she is okay with me. Prince Xian looked at Xi Jiu Er deeply and said.


    Being enveloped in the dense fog, Xi Jiu Er could not think of this person. Inevitably, there was an atmosphere in his heart, but how could he react in such a way?


    She woke up from her stupor and wanted to avoid Prince Xian''s gaze. Since you have someone you like, why are you still taking care of me so intimately?


    He struggled out of Prince Xian''s hand, picked up the teacup on the tea table, and threw it towards Prince Xian. It seemed to be a question of strength, and it did not hit Prince Xian, but the water in the cup splattered out. Prince Xian''s clothes were all wet, and he shouted loudly, Go! You don''t need to take care of me. Someone in your heart must take responsibility. I''m fine here, go chase after your girl. I don''t want to see you.


    The more Xi Jiu Er spoke, the more excited she became. It was as if what she said just now was a spark that tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes. She no longer faced the Prince Xian and would occasionally throw the empty tea cup on the table at him.


    Seeing this scene, Prince Xian could not help but faint. Did he say something wrong? It seemed that Xi Jiu Er didn''t understand what I meant, and had done the opposite. She wanted to find a chance to explain herself, and when she looked at Xi Jiu Er''s painful expression, she felt pain in her heart, and it was all her fault. She moved forward, squatted down, and comforted her, "Are you alright? Without any hesitation, he got up from the ground and ran towards the village.


    Xi Jiu Er''s emotions stabilized a lot as she said softly, "It''s fine, I just need you to not appear in front of me.


    When the Prince Xian heard him, he stopped in his tracks. As long as Xi Jiu Er was alright, then he was relieved, and at this time, it was no longer a good chance for him to speak. He could just quietly watch from afar, and wait for his emotions to stabilize before finding the chance to speak.


    Prince Xian looked at Xi Jiu Er from afar, and he himself was also thinking about countermeasures, about how to remove the knot in Xi Jiu Er''s heart. To be able to accept him, he had also calmed down and began to think about it, standing on the grass, looking at the mountain in the distance, listening to the birds chirping, he started to daydream.


    Seeing that she and Xi Jiu Er had become husband and wife, the people of the mountain village all came to congratulate them, and as they embraced their wives, they would watch the sunrise together every day. At night, they would watch the sunset together, and not long after that, they would be holding hands, and laughing happily.


    The old lady from the village arrived, and waves of laughter resounded as she came to visit Xi Jiu Er. Her thoughts were also interrupted, and she could not help but turn her head to look at Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er stood up, wanting to welcome the old lady, but was stopped by the old lady''s coarse voice, she immediately increased her own pace, and helped Xi Jiu Er down the chair.


    Aiya! How was the floor made? Prince Xian also walked over, and after a while, he said, "What happened to the teacups scattered on the ground. Tell Auntie, are you angry? Men were men, and taking care of women was no good!


    Aunty, it''s not Prince Xian that makes me angry, but the fetus in my stomach has been kicking its stomach with its little feet recently. When I feel pain, I just have to find something ¡­ With that, he humbly looked towards Prince Xian.


    It seemed like the baby in her stomach was quite mischievous. She must be a fat boy who wanted to rush to see mother so she covered her mouth and laughed.


    Yan! It''s not good to get angry during pregnancy, it''s not good to hurt the fetus. When your stomach hurts, gently stroke your belly and hum a song, it''s guaranteed to work. Oh right, Auntie brought you chicken soup, don''t get cold, drink it while it''s hot.


    Prince Xian bent over and picked up the teacup on the floor, placing it on the table. He brought out the chicken soup and gently fed it to Xi Jiu Er, then gave Xi Jiu Er a look as well.


    The woman looked at Prince Xian and said, "I, as a girl, need good people to take care of me. Xiao Xian is such a good man, taking care of my sister for such a long time, shouldn''t I also have found one too?


    Aunt, there''s someone in Prince Xian''s heart, but I don''t know who it is. During this period of time, it''s all thanks to Prince Xian.


    Xi Jiu Er, Grandma will be leaving first, I have to look for Grandma, and I have to thank Xiao Xian, and during this period of time, thanks to him, I will be coming to the village to help him.


    Yes, Grandma, take care. Take care. Prince Xian looked at the distant figure of the aunty and said, "Are you that willing for me to leave you?"


    Look, once the grandma left, you started spouting nonsense. Don''t you have someone in your heart? Then I wish you well. I''ll drink the chicken soup myself.


    Prince Xian laughed. Seems like you, as a pregnant woman, have a rusty brain. Why are you laughing? You have someone in your heart, so I sincerely wish you the best of luck. Find a good girl, like what Auntie said, a man making a family, isn''t that what you''re looking forward to? If I didn''t say that you''ve already met with her, but I don''t know what she''s thinking, I''ll find an old lady for you to ask.


    He still wanted to continue speaking, but for some reason, he felt indignant. He wanted to say everything that he wanted to say, and he envied that girl as well.


    Xi Jiu Er thought about her own situation, and was afraid that the Prince Xian was worried that he had not taken good care of him, and did not dare to meet the girl for a long time. It was possible that she had misjudged him, and for some reason, there were many thoughts in her mind.

 C447

    He opened his mouth and said, "Actually, you don''t have to ¡­" Before she could finish, a big hand covered her mouth. When her eyes met with Prince Xian''s, she felt herself falling in, avoiding her gaze. Prince Xian opened his mouth and said, "Idiot, didn''t I say that it was you? That person had a special situation, his hand came down from his mouth and pointed to his belly. That person had a bit of a temper, I''ve already told you that our child, a man or a woman, is going to have problems in the future, but I don''t know what she''s thinking, so I''ve been waiting.


    Xi Jiu Er''s gaze slowly turned back, her eyes started to turn moist. Yes, she was tempted, but there was something else in her heart, that was why she kept suppressing her own thoughts and telling herself that she absolutely could not think like that, but she had to understand that this man in front of him had a sense of responsibility and responsibility, and she believed that all women would entrust their lives to him.


    Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth and said, "I want to calm down a bit, can you stay away from me?" She was stalling for time, because she was too irrational. Her face was flushed red, and she didn''t know where she should place her fingers.


    The Prince Xian didn''t wait anxiously for this moment, and walked to the side subconsciously, because he knew that his own words had already captured Xi Jiu Er. Seeing her silent appearance, she also loved him in her heart, and it seemed that she was worried about that child.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at his stomach, the baby inside was playfully kicking his stomach, but the strength was very light, and she said softly, "It seems like you are also tempted, is this a reminder to mother?


    In this vast mountain, it would always make one lack a sense of security, but fortunately, there was the Prince Xian. A small stream flowed across the mountain, slowly flowing. Liu Shui''s small voice made people feel relaxed and happy.


    Suddenly, Xi Jiu Er''s foot slipped, and with great danger she fell back into Prince Xian''s embrace. She patted her chest, still a little afraid.


    Immediately after, Prince Xian helped Xi Jiu Er up, but Xi Jiu Er held onto her stomach, her expression was pained, and beads of perspiration trickled down her forehead.


    "Is it going to be produced?" Prince Xian was shocked. He looked at Xi Jiu Er again, and felt so painful that he couldn''t speak.


    This was too sudden, logically speaking, there should still be a few more weeks, but he was born prematurely, without saying a word, Prince Xian picked up Xi Jiu Er, his expression anxious, as he searched for a way down the mountain.


    Prince Xian practically jogged down the mountain. Even he himself almost fell down but he had never seen Prince Xian in such a state of panic.


    In the end, Prince Xian ran back to the village in one breath. His clothes were drenched in sweat, but he couldn''t care so much as wiped off his sweat.


    "Big Brother Li!" "Brother Zhang!" This was the first time that the Prince Xian had been this panicked. He clenched his thin lips until he saw the men in the fields, and it was as if he had seen his family.


    Seeing who it was, the men who were farming dropped the hoes in their hands and rushed over to Prince Xian and the others'' side.


    It was a huge matter to add people to the list of people in the village, because there would be a huge feast to be held here. Under the escort of the people, Xi Jiu Er finally returned home.


    The midwives from the village also came, and finally they pushed the men out. A few old women with the experience of delivering babies entered the house.


    The Prince Xian in the courtyard was anxious to the point that he couldn''t sit still. Although he still looked calm on the surface and had the air of a king, his hands were already trembling under his robes.


    Just then, with a bang, the door opened. As if he had received a signal, Prince Xian suddenly rushed over and looked at the midwife expectantly.


    "It must be that she''s using her Fetal Qi. There shouldn''t be any major problems. She''ll be fine after a few days of recuperation." The midwife came to her conclusion. All the young people in the village were delivered by this midwife who was over a hundred years old.


    Hearing that it was not a premature birth, Prince Xian thought for a while, and was unsure if he should be happy or disappointed, he quickly walked into the house, and Xi Jiu Er had already returned to normal.


    "So what? Are you feeling bad?" Saying that, the Prince Xian tucked Xi Jiu Er in as he asked with a face full of concern.


    "I''m fine." Xi Jiu Er shook her head and sat there, her eyes flashing. Prince Xian carried her back to their house in one breath, feeling very warm.


    Prince Xian took a deep breath: "You really scared me to death, not resting even throughout the day, my heart can''t take it anymore." As he spoke, he pretended to touch his chest.


    "Tsk." Xi Jiu Er scoffed, but her heart was still warm.


    Very quickly, the matter of the Prince Xian carrying Xi Jiu Er from the mountain all the way to home came from the village.


    The village was a farming village, and the best men in the village were all the most powerful men. Everyone thought that Prince Xian was just a white-faced scholar, but who would have thought that he was also a strong young man.


    The whole of the village was talking about the Prince Xian and the rest. On the second day, there was a series of knocks on the door, and the Prince Xian was worried that Xi Jiu Er had not slept at all that night. He lazily went to open the door.


    Seeing that it was Sixth Aunt, holding a hen, laughing as if he was looking at a treasure, he looked at Prince Xian.


    Prince Xian also didn''t know why Sixth Aunt was smiling so much today, so he quickly invited her in.


    "I came to see Little Yan, I wonder how she is doing." The Sixth Aunt said as she handed the chicken over to the Prince Xian and strode into the house.


    In this barren and remote village, gifting a chicken was a huge gift. One had to know that this place didn''t have any rare delicacies; ducks and chickens were the main food for meat.


    Xi Jiu Er was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, while Sixth Aunt held her hand with concern. Not long later, she called Prince Xian out the door alone.


    In a blink of an eye, a few days had passed in the village, and the Prince Xian had also slowly blended in. Because of Xi Jiu Er''s improvement, the worry between her brows had disappeared, and he had recovered her heroic look.


    After pouring a cup of water for Sixth Aunt, she sat on the bed and coughed twice, then said: "I have a niece who is already at the age to marry, and I see that you don''t have a concubine either. Xi Jiu Er''s stomach is so big, yet no one is busy, otherwise, you would have already married." Sixth Aunt drank a mouthful of water and revealed her purpose for coming.


    Who knew that Prince Xian almost spat out water and wiped the corner of his mouth. Sixth Aunt was here to protect the media.


    Sixth Aunt and the others had already planned long ago that marrying Prince Xian as their concubines would be better than marrying other people''s wives. Furthermore, there were many relatives in the village, and there had to be girls from other families that married into the village.


    Prince Xian was stunned. Not to mention that Prince Xian was a prince, if he couldn''t find what kind of woman, how could he marry a village girl? Furthermore, he only liked Xi Jiu Er.


    It could be said that, other than Xi Jiu Er, no one else could enter the eyes of the Prince Xian, and no one could be worthy of him.


    However, in the Fang family''s residence, it was an impressive matter to bring one over and request for a marriage proposal.


    Prince Xian hesitated, it was the first time he was met with this kind of thing, he did not even have time to react.


    "Our Lil ''Red can also wash clothes and cook. With our good physiques, we will definitely be able to give birth to a fat boy for you." Seeing Prince Xian hesitate, Sixth Aunt immediately said some good words, he truly liked this couple from the bottom of his heart. Since Prince Xian was still so capable, it would be best for him to get a relative.

 C448

    Little Red? The Prince had a slight impression that the girl was the one who sent them the jujube the other day. She was indeed lively and spirited, but she was still unable to enter the eyes of the Prince Xian.


    "I have no intention of getting married." Prince Xian rejected him immediately. Seeing that Sixth Aunt was his elder, if it were in the past, he would probably kick him out.


    Regarding Xi Jiu Er''s love for him, Prince Xian was very single-minded. As for three wives, this kind of thing could never ever happen to him.


    "Look at this house, so few women are in control of their families. Our Little Red has a big butt, and with one look she can easily give birth to a son. All the women in this house can work, and manual labor is not an issue." Sixth Aunt continued to brainwash Prince Xian.


    The Sixth Aunt''s words were crude, but a normal man would definitely not be able to take it. However, the Prince Xian was a person that did not change his expression.


    Prince Xian just stood with his hands behind his back, as if he was not talking about it at all. This matter had touched his taboo, and his good days with Xi Jiu Er had only been here for a short while.


    "Sixth Aunt, you are an elder. Normally, I would listen to an elder, but right now, I just want to take care of Xi Jiu Er." Prince Xian kept his promise.


    Sixth Aunt was also a smart person, and knowing that Xi Jiu Er had activated her Fetal Qi, she must be worried, so she rolled her eyes.


    "Then you should think about it. Auntie will go back first."


    After Sixth Aunt left, the first thing he did was to grab the chick. That chick was still lively and lively, its head constantly turning, but its wings were tied up.


    "Don''t worry, you''ll be useful soon." Prince Xian rubbed the chicken''s head as he returned to his bedroom.


    Xi Jiu Er had already fallen asleep, she did not expect that so many things would happen in this seemingly peaceful village. Prince Xian rubbed Xi Jiu Er''s stomach, then affectionately kissed her forehead.


    The Prince himself closed the door and prepared to deal with the delicacy.


    On the other side, Sixth Aunt had returned home. Xiao Hong had been waiting here the entire time, and upon hearing the door open, she anxiously stood up, looked at Sixth Aunt, and held Xiao Hong''s hand.


    "Hong, that Qiushui said that she wanted to wait until after Xi Jiu Er gave birth before thinking about marrying her again." Sixth Aunt was a little tactful, he didn''t say that Prince Xian rejected him outright.


    Poor Little Red, who wholeheartedly looked forward to her, but when she heard these words, her heart was like a bolt from the blue. She immediately sat down on the bed in disappointment, thinking about something in silence.


    Xiao Hong thought for a bit, then looked at Sixth Aunt pitifully: "Aunt, I fell for him. I want him." Xiao Hong tugged on its braid and hardened its heart.


    Sixth Aunt was a widow with no children. She had always treated Xiao Hong as her own daughter.


    "Hong, don''t be in such a hurry. Go out with an aunt tomorrow. We''re just young ladies, yet you want to marry him? Are you afraid that he won''t marry her?" Sixth Aunt said loudly. He had given Xiao Hong a shot in the arm. Xiao Hong''s heart was once again filled with hope.


    "It seems like Xi Jiu Er is very important to that Qiushui brat. In the future, we will be family, so you need to strike up a good relationship." Sixth Aunt patted Xiao Hong''s shoulder and said.


    "Aunt, don''t worry." After Sixth Aunt finished speaking, Xiao Hong also understood some things and left the six families.


    Xiao Hong went home in one breath. His mother was looking around the yard and when she saw Xiao Hong come back, she hurriedly went to ask him about it. Meanwhile, Xiao Hong''s father, who was working in the yard, did not even look at Xiao Hong.


    Xiao Hong knew that her father was still angry, so she rolled her eyes, smiled, and grabbed her father''s arm.


    "Dad, you''re still angry." Little Red acted like a spoiled child.


    "Angry!" How can I not be angry? It''s not proper for a girl to rush from house to house to get married! " Little Red''s dad said angrily, clearly still angry. There''s no precedent for this kind of thing.


    "That Da Niu is so nice to you. His family is also pretty close to ours." Little Red''s dad threw down the shovel.


    "Dad, how can Da Niu compare to Cunninghamia lanceolata L?" Xiao Hong hopped.


    It was at this time that Da Niu came. In fact, he had long seen Xi Jiu Er coming back.


    Da Niu rushed into the yard. Unexpectedly, Xiao Hong pouted and tilted its head to return to the room. Da Niu closed the door and saw Xiao Hong''s departing figure and was reluctant to leave.


    "Da Niu is here. Hurry and enter the house." He also liked Prince Xian very much, but he had long since seen Da Niu as his son-in-law.


    In order to wait for Xiao Hong, Da Niu had never gotten married.


    Da Niu and Xiao Hong were already betrothed to children. Who knew that Xiao Hong''s eyes were high and that Prince Xian just happened to be here again. Xiao Hong''s father sighed and invited Da Niu in.


    Ever since she became pregnant, she often felt pain on her back, and even the rest time was abnormal. This, when she felt sleepy, Xi Jiu Er fell asleep.


    Prince Xian could not bear to disturb her. It was already evening by the time he slept, and when he heard the commotion, he entered the room to take a look. Xi Jiu Er welcomed him, happily raised his sleeves, and then turned around and left.


    When Prince Xian came back, he held a bowl in his hands and carried it to Xi Jiu Er''s side.


    "Drink it, chicken soup." The Prince Xian said.


    Xi Jiu Er lowered his head and saw that it was a bowl of fragrant chicken soup. She asked in a daze, "Where did the chicken soup come from?"


    "Sixth Aunt brought a chicken." Prince Xian did not mention that she wanted to marry him off as a concubine.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded. In the past two days, she had been eating so much that she drank all of the chicken soup in one go.


    "Don''t worry, there''s more." Prince Xian''s eyes were full of affection as he patted Xi Jiu Er''s head.


    "It''s not easy for the Sixth Aunt either. Let''s see if we can give them some money." Xi Jiu Er handed the bowl over to Prince Xian.


    "I can''t take it." Prince Xian took the bowl and went out to get the chicken for Xi Jiu Er. Not to mention that Prince Xian''s cooking skills were not bad, the chicken that she made melted immediately did not lose to the chefs in the palace at all.


    You can''t eat too much fish and meat when you''re pregnant. After eating his fill, Xi Jiu Er strolled for a bit. It seemed that the sky would turn dark soon, and he was about to go to sleep.


    Prince Xian continued to complain about Xi Jiu Er eating too much. Xi Jiu Er pointed to his stomach: "Tell him."


    The Prince Xian snorted, then happily got on the bed, just as he was about to sleep, Xi Jiu Er immediately moved inside.


    "Leave my bed." Xi Jiu Er yawned.


    "You want to kick me out after I finish my chicken soup?" After all, the other party only talked for a short time, and the Prince Xian did not care.


    Xi Jiu Er immediately turned her head away: "I don''t care."


    Prince Xian shamelessly hugged Xi Jiu Er, rubbed her head against her back and comfortably closed her eyes.


    Xi Jiu Er''s condition was already better, and the fetus in her stomach was also very stable, causing the Prince Xian to feel much better.


    The next morning, Prince Xian left home with money in his hands. He wanted to buy some things to recuperate his body, including some things for children.


    As for food, Xi Jiu Er had always maintained a regular pattern. In the palace, compared to in the palace, if the fetus was too big, it would easily cause trouble with the delivery, other than the bowl of chicken soup she drank yesterday, everything else was normal.

 C449

    While he was making some small shoes in the house, he heard a sharp knock on the door.


    When Xi Jiu Er stepped out of the door to take a look, she saw that it was Sixth Aunt. The chicken that was given to him yesterday touched Xi Jiu Er''s heart and she hurriedly invited her into the house to pour her a cup of water.


    Although Xi Jiu Er had a big belly, she was still slim, slim, graceful, and beautiful. It was true that the girls in the village could not compare to her, and it was no wonder that the girls in the village could not compare to her. Even if Autumn Water liked Xi Jiu Er so much, and Sixth Aunt watched her, although Xiao Hong was already a village flower, they could still not compare to Xi Jiu Er.


    "Yan, don''t be busy. Quickly sit down. Auntie has something to discuss with you." Sixth Aunt held Xi Jiu Er''s hand.


    "Auntie, tell me." Xi Jiu Er sat beside the Sixth Aunt.


    Sixth Aunt kindly touched Xi Jiu Er''s hand, and asked for her warmth.


    "When I was pregnant for the first time, I wasn''t as at ease as you were. However, this is always the case for the first time. The second time will be fine." Sixth Aunt had begun to impart experience to Xi Jiu Er; this was naturally what Xi Jiu Er needed.


    Xi Jiu Er obediently nodded the entire time. She had many fantasies about her own child, so right now, the biggest thought was to peacefully raise a baby here, waiting for her child to be born.


    "Oh yeah, thank you Sixth Aunt for the chicken." It was only then that Xi Jiu Er thought of the fact that a chicken was very expensive.


    "It''s to nourish your body." Sixth Aunt said perfunctorily, this was what she wanted to say.


    "I think you also need someone to take care of you. You''ve been holding this autumn water for a few months now. It''s not bad that I have a niece. Let''s see if we can find a concubine for her." Although the Sixth Aunt seemed to be speaking casually, it was also very reasonable.


    Sixth Aunt thought about these things for a long time, afraid that Xi Jiu Er would be unhappy. Originally, this should be a man''s affair, but Prince Xian regarded her too highly.


    Xi Jiu Er did not have any change, nor was there much of a ripple in her heart. Prince Xian marrying a wife was a good thing, but Sixth Aunt came to ask him why she was going to get married.


    "Is it Little Red?" Xi Jiu Er asked.


    Sixth Aunt nodded her head and continued, "Our Xiao Hong is kind and will definitely live a peaceful life. Don''t worry, you two."


    Sixth Aunt saying this showed that Xiao Hong was not a threat to Xi Jiu Er''s position. This was also something out of helplessness, as her family had become infatuated with Xi Jiu Er now.


    The domineering aura of the Prince Xian was something that these farmers did not have, and his meticulous care and concern for Xi Jiu Er made people jealous.


    In this world where males were inferior to females, females were treated as a tool for production. It was very tragic, but there would not be a second males who doted on their wives like Prince Xian.


    Xiao Hong, this girl, Xi Jiu Er had some impression of her, the dates from a few days ago were sent by her, she was not bad, but Xi Jiu Er did not mind, as everything was decided after Prince Xian returned.


    "Ask him yourself about this." Xi Jiu Er smiled slightly. She didn''t think much of Prince Xian marrying his concubine, but her heart was a little messy right now.


    "Oh, look at your delicate hands. These shoes are too beautiful." When Sixth Aunt saw the pair of shoes that Xi Jiu Er had made, she knew that she was the key to the problem and praised her.


    This time, seeing that it was a village matchmaker, she specifically came here to kiss. There were more than one or two young ladies of the Prince Xian in the village who wanted to marry the Prince Xian.


    The Prince Xian was big and sturdy, pure and white. Anyone would want to take another look.


    As for the Prince Xian, he wanted to find a carriage and leave the village since there was nothing in the village.


    Prince Xian saw that Grandpa Li was not at home and had gone to visit relatives. Only his son, Daniu, was at home, so he had no choice but to use some money to ask Da Niu to pull him out.


    "Who am I supposed to hitch on in this car? I''m not even pulling you out." Da Niu''s temper was just like his name ¨C it was as if she was a stubborn cow.


    When Prince Xian saw this, he didn''t know which part of him had provoked Da Niu. He was a little confused.


    "I don''t know which part of my actions were wrong, please speak clearly." Prince Xian had never had such a cold look in her eyes before. If not for Xi Jiu Er, he might have been able to kill this Da Niu with one punch.


    Da Niu could tell that the Prince Xian was angry. He also knew that his brain didn''t have the memory of the other party, so he could only say something. He sat on the horse carriage as if he was wronged.


    "Little Red and I were originally in love with each other, and we slept in the same bed before. Don''t try to get any ideas from her." Da Niu bravely puffed up her chest. She would definitely not give up on this matter.


    Prince Xian laughed out loud. He never thought that it would be this, he didn''t even have enough time to dodge Xiao Hong, how could anything happen to it.


    Da Niu saw Prince Xian laughing and he was a little confused. He was a stubborn person, so he thought that Prince Xian was mocking him. However, due to reason, he did not say anything.


    "Big Brother Da Niu, you worry too much. I only have Xi Jiu Er in my heart, I can''t marry anyone else." The Prince Xian had spoken his inner thoughts. If he couldn''t even love a single Xi Jiu Er, how would he dare ask for more?


    The atmosphere suddenly calmed down. Da Niu scratched his head in embarrassment. It seemed that he had misunderstood her.


    Da Niu also had a good impression of Prince Xian. Seeing that he was wearing a blue robe today, he felt like the person in the painting was someone a peasant like himself couldn''t compare to.


    "I really do like Lil ''Red. Thus, I hope that you can give her to me. When the time comes, I''ll treat you to wine." Da Niu pleaded.


    What Da Niu said was right, Prince Xian readily agreed. If Da Niu and Xiao Hong were to really be together, then he would be able to clear his mind.


    Da Niu lent Prince Xian a horse. The two decided that they would have time to drink together. Then, the Prince Xian spurred his horse forward and galloped away.


    It had been a long time since he had ridden a horse. Prince Xian was a little unfamiliar with it, but at the moment, he was riding it with a handsome face, like a soaring eagle.


    Just as they were about to leave the village, suddenly, a small figure stopped Prince Xian on his way forward. Prince Xian quickly reined in his horse and dismounted it.


    "Cunninghamia lanceolata L, wait." Xiao Hong immediately stuck close to her, causing Prince Xian to be at a loss of what to do, but Prince Xian subconsciously maintained a distance from her.


    Seeing her lover standing so close to her, Xiao Hong was a little excited. She tugged at the corner of her clothes, unsure of what to say. After all, she was still a girl.


    At this moment, the Prince Xian with Xiao Hong''s serious look, was grand and imposing, as though there was no other boy in this world more handsome than him.


    Xiao Hong''s face immediately turned red, it didn''t know where to put its hands.


    "It''s nothing, I''m leaving." Prince Xian was unable to avoid Xiao Hong.


    "Wait." Xiao Hong was a little anxious, she did not know what to say as she bit her lips.


    "Marry me!" Xiao Hong said while trembling. It must be known how much courage she used to say those words, but after she said them she felt a lot more relaxed. A huge boulder in her heart fell to the ground, and now she was only waiting for Prince Xian to speak.

 C450

    Marry you? nonability


    "I can''t marry you." On other matters, the Prince Xian would probably joke around, but now he rejected it flatly. She didn''t even have the space to discuss it.


    Xiao Hong found it hard to imagine how she, who was a village flower, and was a girl that made all the young men scramble for her, could be rejected. Although Sixth Aunt had already told her the answer, hearing it now, it was still different.


    She could only feel tears welling up in her eyes. Xiao Hong''s face was flushed red, not knowing what else to say.


    Prince Xian looked at her with a complicated expression: "I only see you as my younger sister." Then he rode away.


    Ever since she was young, she had never received such a huge shock. Xiao Hong only had one thought, and that was that if she married the Prince Xian, she would have already reached a crazed level.


    On the other side, Sixth Aunt and the matchmaker were waiting for Prince Xian to return. Da Niu who was at home suddenly had a bad feeling and could only console himself.


    He spent half a day to buy everything he needed, and just as Prince Xian was about to return the horse, he found that there were a lot of people at home.


    "I say, Xi Jiu Er, I want to buy a horse. It would be convenient for me to go out at that time." Prince Xian said as she entered the house. She saw a few of her mother-in-law and Xi Jiu Er chatting in the house and saw that Prince Xian had stood up one after another.


    Xi Jiu Er made a helpless face. This was already the third batch of people to get married, and even she was a little tired from treating them.


    "You guys go ahead and chat, I''m going to take a break." Xi Jiu Er supported her waist and went into the room.


    These aunts and aunties were all waiting for Prince Xian to come back and make a decision. Prince Xian finally understood that sentence and stepped on the door to propose marriage.


    "Qiushui, the Li family''s girls are not bad."


    "My daughter has taken a fancy to you too."


    "My disappointing niece said she wants to meet you." The four or five old wives fought to be the first to speak, enough to show off their power in Prince Xian. Unfortunately, there was only one matchmaker in the village, so they had no choice but to personally pay a visit.


    "Everyone, please speak." Prince Xian pacified everyone. One had to know that he had returned later, since there were so many people looking after Xi Jiu Er.


    "To tell you the truth, I don''t have any plans to take a concubine, I only want to guard Xi Jiu Er." Prince Xian was a little angry as he said that these people would visit every day, but he was annoyed.


    With this, everyone understood what Prince Xian meant. What was left for them to leave, was only the matchmaker, and Prince Xian couldn''t kick away the guests. They could only pour a cup of tea and continue their discussion in the living room.


    Just speak of Xiao Hong, that girl. She really likes you with all her heart, yet you aren''t moved at all. In the end, it was still Lil ''Red. Of all these young misses, Lil'' Red had the most momentum. Seeing her like this, many of them started to retreat.


    Prince Xian had a headache, he wanted to say that he was dragged out to kill his, was there still any need to force the matter of marrying his, and it was even a little unhappy. Prince Xian only wanted to end this matter as soon as possible, and planned to use his lightning-fast methods.


    "Alright, you can go back first. I''ll personally tell Little Red about this matter." Prince Xian ordered for the guests to leave, and the matchmaker did not want to bring trouble upon herself.


    When the Prince Xian said this, the damnable heart gave up, and only Xiao Hong was left with her own thoughts.


    When everyone had left, Prince Xian dragged his somewhat exhausted body back to his bedroom, holding onto a bag of stuff.


    Xi Jiu Er had her back facing him, no one knew what she was doing.


    "What? Jealous?" Prince Xian saw through Xi Jiu Er''s thoughts with a glance, and then, he held the bag of apricots in front of her from behind, shaking it a little.


    Xi Jiu Er was immediately beaming with joy. Actually, women are simple, Prince Xian thought that this matter was over, but who knew that Xi Jiu Er would snatch the apricot fruit from her hands and ignore her as she ate.


    "Whether you get married or not has nothing to do with me." Xi Jiu Er spat out a huge almond.


    Prince Xian laughed mischievously. Xi Jiu Er was indeed jealous, this was the first time Xi Jiu Er got jealous for him, and she was very satisfied in her heart.


    "Don''t worry, I won''t abandon you, you pitiful brat." Prince Xian pretended to be sympathetic and patted Xi Jiu Er''s head.


    "As you wish." Xi Jiu Er curled her lips, glared at him once, and no longer paid any attention to him.


    Prince Xian shook her head. He knew that Xi Jiu Er was a little unhappy today, but she was pregnant and had to be happy.


    "Stop eating, I''ll test you. What kind of death did the pigs die?" Prince Xian patted Xi Jiu Er''s back before opening her eyes wide and saying.


    Pigs? Xi Jiu Er was puzzled, there were not many pigs in the village, if she were to talk about how she died, she would definitely be killed during the festivals.


    Xi Jiu Er was seriously thinking about this, and had completely forgotten about the matter of the trap.


    The Prince Xian shook his head and sighed mysteriously. He knew Xi Jiu Er was curious, but he didn''t answer.


    "Hurry up and say it!" Xi Jiu Er was a little unhappy.


    "He''s stupid." Prince Xian laughed out loud, clutching his stomach as he rolled on the bed, laughing until he was out of breath, as though he had succeeded in his evil scheme.


    Xi Jiu Er was still a little confused. Seeing Prince Xian laughing loudly, he did not manage to react in time, but when he thought about it carefully, wasn''t that precisely saying that she was stupid?


    "You''re the pig, stupid pig!" Xi Jiu Er''s fist punched towards Prince Xian''s chest. Seeing his brilliant smile, the haze from before was also swept away.


    She was tired from laughing and she was tired from fighting. The two of them were lying on the bed together, looking at each other. Unexpectedly, there was still warmth flowing in their hearts.


    It was expected for the Prince Xian to be loyal to Xi Jiu Er, but when he found out about this news, he was still moved.


    Xi Jiu Er was not that generous, these matchmakers coming and bothering her everyday made her feel helpless, but as for the neighbors, it was hard to not have a falling out with them. Just when she was worrying about this matter, the Prince Xian went to settle it.


    The matchmaker''s house was in the middle of the village. After eating dinner, the Prince Xian went out again.


    Prince Xian could clearly feel the gentle eyes the girls were giving him, but because he was unfamiliar with them, he was filled with curiosity towards them. Prince Xian''s expression did not even look at them, he only wanted them to know that this was the end of his heart.


    Along the way to the matchmaker''s house, people came up to greet him from time to time. It was also a special favor. Occasionally, a few people would come up and talk about marrying a concubine, but all of them were rejected.


    Looking at the Prince Xian''s leaving figure, a girl silently muttered, "If only I could marry him."


    When he arrived at the matchmaker''s house, the matchmaker had just finished her meal. When she saw Prince Xian, she thought that he had changed his mind and had a bright smile on his face.


    "What kind of girl do you think your back is on?" The matchmaker found a stool for the Prince Xian to sit on as she calculated the benefits she would be able to get if the marriage was successful.

 C451

    The Prince Xian was sitting at attention. This was the most serious day since he came to the village.


    "Aunt Zhang, you should know that Xi Jiu Er is about to give birth soon, I have also very clearly stated that I will not take a concubine, so I want Xi Jiu Er to calm her heart and give birth first." Prince Xian had a very low attitude, it was probably the first time in his entire life that he was speaking lowly to someone, and all of this was for Xi Jiu Er.


    Although the village girls were a little vulgar, they still understood the most basic truths. The fact that they had been visiting Xi Jiu Er every day for the past few days also disturbed Xi Jiu Er''s trusted aides.


    Prince Xian had also left a trace, there was no need for them to shed all pretense of cordiality. If they still continued, then they would definitely have to pay a price.


    "Just look at it and don''t think about it." Aunt Zhang finally asked.


    "I have made up my mind. I will never marry." With that, the Prince Xian bid her farewell and disappeared. He was worried about Xi Jiu Er and was worried that someone would bother her again.


    His family''s cultivated land had already been determined, but they had not yet been reclaimed. From the looks of it, Prince Xian was extremely anxious, he did not even know how long he should stay for.


    Prince Xian looked up to the sky: "If they come again to disturb Xi Jiu Er, then let''s leave."


    Prince Xian''s wrist had always been very hard, which was one of the few serious things he did.


    Prince Xian thought that it would be useless for now. He wanted to buy some things, but if they knew that he was very rich, then it would be a waste.


    After thinking about it, he decided to buy a horse, so he went to Da Niu''s place. Prince Xian found out that a shadow was silently following him, so he didn''t say anything.


    They arrived at Da Niu''s house. Da Niu was finishing his meal. When he saw Prince Xian, he had a complicated expression on his face.


    After Prince Xian explained his purpose of coming, Big Newton was overjoyed. His female horse just so happened to have a litter of young ponies, and was just worried that the old horse would not be able to handle it, so the money was delivered to him.


    Da Niu called out a price. Seeing that Prince Xian had turned silent, Da Niu was shocked and thought that Prince Xian thought that it was too expensive. He hurriedly added, "We can discuss the price again."


    "I''ll give you another 20%. Feed me enough horses." Prince Xian magnanimously said that he currently had nothing, but she had a lot of money.


    Da Niu was stunned. He never expected Prince Xian to increase the bid by another 20% without even saying a word. He was already very happy inside.


    The Prince Xian didn''t think so, but he could feel that Da Niu''s attitude towards him had changed. Patting his horse again, he became a bit old and thin. He couldn''t help but recall that line, "The west wind of the ancient road is thin, the sun is setting."


    I''m afraid if not for Xi Jiu Er, I would not even know where I would be wandering to. I''m tired of the scheming and fighting in the palace, and never would I know that the Prince Xian''s heart is in heaven and earth.


    The prince looked bright and beautiful, but how was that good?


    "Deal, haha." When Prince Xian took out a large amount of coins, Da Niu laughed out loud. His father did not come back, and only he was left at home.


    "You are my lucky star." Da Niu no longer hid his joy. With this money, he could finally marry Xiao Hong.


    After selling the horses, Da Niu''s family was probably the richest family in the village. Unknowingly, even Da Niu''s back had stiffened.


    "Let''s go, brother. I''ll treat you to a meal!" Da Niu hugged Prince Xian''s shoulders. His personality was a little straightforward.


    Prince Xian wanted to reject him, but then he thought about it, doesn''t this Da Niu like Xiao Hong?


    After three rounds of drinking, Da Niu got drunk and cried. "Cunninghamia lanceolata L, I know I''m worse than you in every aspect, but I really like Xiao Hong. I really like her." After drinking and spouting out the truth, Da Niu also began to cry.


    "Mhmm, when the time comes, big bro will find a matchmaker to propose to you." The Prince Xian said.


    When Da Niu heard this, he opened his eyes. "Thank you, thank you!" When he looked again, there was someone on the wall.


    He remembered when he was young, Da Niu and Xiao Hong would often lie on the wall to see if Da Niu''s father was home.


    Da Niu subconsciously thought of Xiao Hong. When he looked again, there was no one. He thought he was seeing things.


    Little Red jumped down from the wall. It was unknown what she was thinking, but she bit her lips and clenched her delicate hands.


    As if she had made up her mind, Xiao Hong broke her fingernails.


    Da Niu didn''t have enough alcohol. After drinking for a while, he fell asleep. He was still silently talking about Xiao Hong.


    It was getting late, and Xi Jiu Er was getting impatient. Prince Xian carried Da Niu into the house and left.


    Prince Xian had already seen Xiao Hong just now. Da Niu must have talked about the matters of his youth and Xiao Hong would probably be emotionally moved.


    He dragged his somewhat exhausted body home, and then went down to open the door for Prince Xian. Although it was already night, Xi Jiu Er''s eyes were bright and clear, as if there was a clear spring within.


    "The smell of alcohol is all over your body, quickly go wash up." Xi Jiu Er said a little displeased. She did not know where Prince Xian went to fool around, but she had a very complicated heart and thought of many different possibilities.


    Prince Xian took off his jacket and supported Xi Jiu Er back into the room. Afraid that she would worry and tell her the things that had happened today, Xi Jiu Er''s tightly knitted eyebrows finally relaxed.


    "I don''t know how long this will last." Prince Xian was a little helpless, she was never very smart towards matters of the heart, she only knew that she had to like Xi Jiu Er.


    I wonder how Prince Xian would feel if they found out that the famous Prince Xian had been completely wrecked by some village women.


    The day passed, and the next morning, large strawberries grew in the yard. They were bright red and looked delicious and juicy.


    Prince Xian picked a small basin in one go. There were a lot of these things anyways, the horse in the yard was eating the grass quietly, he was afraid that he would have to make a stable for it sometime.


    When Xi Jiu Er got up, there were strawberries on the table, and a cup of hot water on the bedside. Prince Xian had just given her a massage last night, she felt extremely comfortable, only feeling refreshed.


    Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt very happy. The baby in her stomach kicked her, as if she said the same thing as well.


    Strawberries were sweet and juicy, so Xi Jiu Er ate a small bowl in one breath and then laid on the bed satisfied.


    Prince Xian carried a basin of water, intending to wash Xi Jiu Er''s face. Xi Jiu Er happily accepted that this kind of life had already persisted for a long time.


    Ever since Xi Jiu Er activated her Fetal Qi, she did not go out again. She felt that she had become fat, so she could only wander around the courtyard and sit in the academy''s rocking chair.


    Since morning, the village had been playing suona, and the tune was very cheerful. It was likely to be a joyous occasion.


    Not long after, he saw Prince Xian walking in with large strides, changing into a new coat, without waiting for Xi Jiu Er to ask, he said: "Uncle Zhang''s family''s little girl came out to marry and asked me to eat at the banquet. She already found the entrance and had no choice but to go." As he spoke, he left the room.


    Xi Jiu Er did not ask further. She had always been very at ease with Prince Xian and had probably only eaten a few bites.


    With nothing else to do, the baby in Xi Jiu Er''s stomach was very stable as well.


    The children liked both of them very much and also yearned for the outside world. They surrounded Xi Jiu Er and asked him questions, which Xi Jiu Er also spoke about quite a lot.

 C452

    "Are there a lot of people outside? Is there a lot of sugar?!" A mischievous child asked with a wistful expression.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded: "Of course, when the time comes, auntie will treat you guys to a lot of delicious food." Xi Jiu Er caressed his head, imagining her own child''s appearance.


    Xi Jiu Er and her wife were very popular in the village, in a while they had already surrounded a group of people.


    The name of Uncle Zhang''s daughter was Er Lian, and she was a clever little girl. The Zhang family also sought out the matchmaker to propose marriage to the Prince Xian, but was rejected helplessly.


    When Erlian married out of the village, there was a saying that the water poured out by her daughter after she got married would make her stay far away from him.


    The feast was Liu Shui''s turn, and was even more lively than the day when Xi Jiu Er and the others arrived. Xiao Hong and his group of sisters had already taken their seats, and the bride had not appeared at all, as she was busy with matters of marriage.


    Xiao Hong was a little disappointed, which made him think of the Cunninghamia lanceolata L. Ever since that day when he gave away the jujube, every single action taken by the Prince Xian was deeply engraved in his mind.


    Why doesn''t Cunninghamia lanceolata L like me? As Little Red thought of this, her fingers even turned purple.


    Perhaps one day, I will also be like this Zhang family''s little girl, marrying far away. Maybe I won''t be able to come back in this life, Xiao Hong thought.


    Just as Xiao Hong was having mixed feelings about the matter, she saw a figure that she yearned for day and night.


    In Liu Shui''s seating area, every man had to be present, so Xiao Hong was waiting here.


    The men waited, the children and women generally waited in the village for the bride.


    Xi Jiu Er chatted with the children for a while and found out that she wanted to marry the little girl. It seemed that the matter of letting Prince Xian marry his concubine had come to an end.


    There were also people who talked behind their backs about how they were unworthy of the Prince Xian, but more people expressed their understanding of their love.


    Xi Jiu Er, with a big belly, was not going to attend the banquet. She only told Sixth Aunt to tell her to go home early.


    At this point, the Sixth Aunt couldn''t do anything to that niece of hers. She was a good person and treated Xi Jiu Er and the others well as usual.


    "Don''t worry." Sixth Aunt caressed Xi Jiu Er''s hands, imagining that this couple was her daughter and son-in-law.


    The entire village was filled with joy, it was likely that it would be like this for a long time to come. Because of Prince Xian''s rejection, many girls chose to marry each other.


    The village was filled with coarse elders, but when they recalled the song that the Prince Xian sang that day, they begged him to sing another one.


    Hearing the sounds of people jeering one after another, Prince Xian was a little helpless, he said that it was all for his lover to sing.


    Prince Xian had sung a poem from the capital that happened to be used to marry young ladies, so it was rather suitable for the occasion.


    Qu Bi, accompanied by the overwhelming applause, the wedding procession arrived, as well as the bride.


    Usually, the boys would host a banquet, but there were too many relatives and friends in the village, so he couldn''t bear to part with the girls. Old Zhang also held this banquet, hoping that his daughter would be safe and sound.


    There was no wedding procession, only thick blessings. In the lively atmosphere, everyone was exchanging their thoughts.


    Prince Xian was like a main character, standing out from the rest. Xiao Hong saw him in a glance, and then slowly moved to his side.


    When Prince Xian saw that it was Xiao Hong, his smiling face instantly turned cold.


    Little Red was originally a girl, but he also had a glass of wine. In this village, there were many women who knew how to drink.


    "Cunninghamia lanceolata L, you don''t have to hide from me. Tell me the truth, I think Da Niu is also good." Xiao Hong''s face was flushed and she was a little drunk. Seeing Prince Xian avoiding her, she felt a little upset.


    Hearing Xiao Hong say that, Prince Xian revealed a smile. Seems like today was indeed a day of great celebration, if no one bothered him anymore, he would be able to live a good life with Xi Jiu Er.


    "Da Niu is a very reliable person. Since you said that, I''ll get him to propose to you in two days." Prince Xian finished the wine in her cup in one gulp. That kind of boldness and carefreeness was like a free galloping horse on the prairie.


    "Alright." Xiao Hong lowered its head, its eyes revealing a look of disappointment, it then recovered its composure and continued smiling at Prince Xian.


    You are completely different from others in my heart. Your every gesture and smile has an impact on my heart. You are not something ordinary people can compare to. In my heart, you are the most perfect man.


    Xiao Hong looked at Prince Xian with a gaze that seemed to reveal a kind of fanaticism. All of this was something that Prince Xian had never discovered.


    On the wedding day, there were decorations and decorations in the lanterns, and everyone had a look of happiness in their eyes. How enviable was this!


    Xiao Hong really hoped that the one getting married today would be him, and that the groom would be the most perfect Cunninghamia lanceolata L in front of him.


    Prince Xian did not notice anything amiss, he only felt that Xiao Hong had suddenly thought it through. He also mentioned a lot of Da Niu''s good points, he clearly wanted to get them together, Xiao Hong had always been agreeing with him, leaning on his cheeks and nodding his head. However, he did not know that in Xiao Hong''s eyes, there was no room for anyone else.


    "Daniu is truly single-minded towards you." He even felt that Da Niu''s love for Xiao Hong was not inferior to his love for Xi Jiu Er. This was probably one of the reasons why he wanted to help Da Niu.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little anxious from waiting, she knew that today was a happy occasion, so she was relieved.


    At this moment, Da Niu was counting the money. This money was just enough for him to get married, and that was the horse he sold.


    When he thought about how Prince Xian Da Niu suddenly turned cold and refused to attend the banquet that he had already signed, he thought that Teacher Qin would definitely be successful and that Xiao Hong would definitely go as well.


    Da Niu quickly threw away the task in his hands. He wanted to rush to the wedding banquet to see if Xiao Hong was there or not.


    At this time, the feast was nearing its end and the bride was taken away by the groom. Xiao Hong suddenly mentioned that she wanted Prince Xian to come to her house for a cup of tea and discuss the marriage with Da Niu.


    He originally wanted to leave this matter alone and tell Da Niu about it. This brat, Da Niu, would probably go crazy with joy, but it was difficult to stop.


    The Prince Xian did not have many precautions against Xiao Hong. Seeing that it was still early, and the sky was still dark, he decided to follow Xiao Hong to his house to drink a cup of tea. The two of them started chatting and in the future, they would leave things at that.


    Prince Xian returned home with Xiao Hong after drinking some wine. Xiao Hong''s face was slightly red as she gazed at Prince Xian lovingly, until she finally arrived at Xiao Hong''s house.


    When Xiao Hong''s parents went out to visit their relatives, Prince Xian immediately felt that something was amiss. However, Xiao Hong forcefully pulled him into the house, alone with her. He was afraid that he would not be able to explain this matter to her, so he calculated in his heart, that Xiao Hong''s tea was already in his hands.


    The atmosphere in the room was a little ambiguous. Prince Xian''s face was completely red, he had a bad premonition, and didn''t know what Xiao Hong was going to do.


    On the other side, Da Niu rushed to the wedding banquet, only to find that the banquet had already dispersed and there was no sign of Xiao Hong. After thinking for a bit, he decided to go to her house to take a look.

 C453

    "What''s Cunninghamia lanceolata L looking at? Drink water." Lil ''Red said in a very charming manner. She was wearing a very thin layer of clothing. She wore a thin coat, and her exquisite curves could be faintly seen from within the clothes.


    Xiao Hong''s eyes were blurred as it continued to emit hot air. There was a faint fragrance coming from her body, the fragrance of a woman.


    As a dignified Prince Xian, how could he not have seen any big waves before? He was not easily charmed by Xiao Hong''s charm. He smiled lightly and lightly lifted Xiao Hong''s chin with his fingers.


    "What are you doing?" The Prince Xian laughed sinisterly.


    Xiao Hong''s face immediately flushed red. No matter what, she was not a slut, but seeing that Prince Xian really liked her, she threw herself into her opponent''s embrace.


    "Aiya, I''m so tired. Can you just let me rest for a bit?" Xiao Hong touched Prince Xian''s chest, but was pushed away by him.


    "Please show some respect!" The Prince Xian said in all seriousness. In fact, he could not stand this strange atmosphere a long time ago.


    Xiao Hong was a little speechless and her expression turned cold. She then sat on the side of the bed and held Prince Xian''s hand.


    "Look at your hands. They''re different from those farmers'' hands. They''re so long and beautiful." Xiao Hong said appreciatively.


    "But I''m also a peasant." Prince Xian withdrew her hand.


    "If there''s nothing else, I''ll be going." Prince Xian immediately stood up, not giving Xiao Hong any time to react. She had always been thinking about Xi Jiu Er, and every second felt like torture to her.


    Seeing that Prince Xian was about to leave, Xiao Hong panicked. "Don''t leave!" Xiao Hong shouted anxiously.


    "I thought nothing happened today." Prince Xian sneered. Just as she was about to open the door, she was blocked by Xiao Hong.


    "One cup of tea, just one cup." Xiao Hong swore.


    Prince Xian thought for a moment, then turned and sat down.


    "Drink your water." Xiao Hong then brought the tea to Prince Xian''s mouth. Prince Xian looked at it but did not move.


    "Drink it." Prince Xian is also a smart person. Didn''t you ask me to drink some water?


    Although it looked to be an ordinary cup of tea, Prince Xian felt that the inside was slightly turbid. In fact, he could tell with a single glance, the thing that was placed here was probably the tea that it wanted to hide, as for what it was, it was obvious.


    Prince Xian shook his head, and almost splashed that cup of water. Xiao Hong was shocked, and was a little helpless when she saw that Prince Xian did not fall for it.


    She had been thinking about Prince Xian for a long time. Since he did not agree to take her as a concubine, she could only use some methods.


    Since he knew that Prince Xian was an upright person, he had no choice but to admit it.


    Xiao Hong''s heart was steeled. It did not even hesitate to take out its own body as a wager.


    Prince Xian could tell at a glance that Xiao Hong was a yellow flower girl, but even so, he did not have any presumptuous thoughts.


    That cup of water had an article in it, so he definitely could not drink it. Prince Xian put him aside and thought about it.


    "I hope that we will be siblings in the future, so we can only be brothers and sisters." In order to prevent the matter from developing in an uncontrollable direction, the Prince Xian said.


    Prince Xian''s thoughts were all on how anxious Xi Jiu Er would be at home. It was already dusk, so it was time to go back and cook dinner for Xi Jiu Er.


    Xiao Hong replied, "Yes, we will be siblings in the future." We can talk about it later, but the most important thing at the moment is for it to be true. Seeing that she was not listening, Prince Xian stood up and said: "I''m going."


    "Cunninghamia lanceolata L ¡­" Xiao Hong wanted to stop her, but Prince Xian left without looking back. She was so angry that she stomped her feet.


    When it was late in the morning, Xi Jiu Er rubbed his eyes, half-opened them, and vaguely caught a glimpse of the bamboo forest outside the window.


    Xi Jiu Er laid on the bed. For the past few days, her stomach seemed to be protruding at a speed that could not be seen by other people, but after three to four days, she could no longer bend her back at all. If not for the fact that Gui You had specially arranged a maid for her, not to mention walking, even getting off the bed would be extremely difficult.


    "Dong Dong", the door was gently knocked, following that, Mu Qiu Shui heard his familiar voice.


    "Jiu Er, are you awake?"


    Xi Jiu Er regained her senses, only then did she remember that it was already late, and that she had climbed down from her bed to open the door for Mu Qiu Shui.


    Not even a day had passed, and Xi Jiu Er''s lower abdomen had grown even larger. Let alone getting off the bed, even standing up seemed extremely difficult to him.


    Xi Jiu Er supported herself on the bed with one hand and her unwieldy body with the other.


    Mu Qiu Shui heard a cry of surprise from outside the room, and regardless of whether it was male or female, he immediately pushed open the door with one hand, and saw that Xi Jiu Er''s face and facial features were wrinkled, as if he was about to be reborn, while holding onto the bed with his hands.


    Mu Qiu Shui immediately called out, "Men, quickly go find a doctor, hurry."


    A shadow flashed behind him. He knelt outside the door but could not see his figure. He then heard a voice, "Yes."


    When the voice from behind faded away, Mu Qiu Shui took a few steps and sat on the bed. On the bed, Xi Jiu Er''s fair face was continuously covered with beads of perspiration, and her beautiful brows were knitted tightly together from the acute pain in her stomach.


    Mu Qiu Shui called out softly, "Jiu Er."


    Xi Jiu Er barely opened her eyes, and drops of sweat rolled down one by one, covering her originally bright eyes with moist water. Looking at Mu Qiu Shui who was just inches away from her, she was somewhat blurry and unclear.


    Mu Qiu Shui tightly wrapped both of Xi Jiu Er''s trembling hands with one hand, and took out a brocade handkerchief from his bosom to carefully wipe the sweat off Xi Jiu Er''s forehead.


    It was unknown whether it was because it was about to happen, but waves of piercing pain came from Xi Jiu Er''s stomach. The little guy was not at all calm in her stomach, and was being devoured by the intense pain, continuously sending her to hell.


    "Jiu Er, Jiu Er." Mu Qiu Shui nervously held onto Xi Jiu Er''s arm. She was filled with worry, but didn''t dare to easily shake her body.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at him with much difficulty, then fainted again.


    At this critical moment, a young man brought an old man who looked over a hundred years old to the second floor of the bamboo building.


    The sound of rapid footsteps could be heard clearly from the bamboo building. As the sound of footsteps got closer, a panicked voice sounded from outside the door.


    "Mistress, the doctor is here."


    Mu Qiu Shui roared, "Come on in, what are you waiting outside for?"


    The young man paused for a moment, his mood slightly downcast. He turned his head and supported the old doctor into the room without saying a word.


    The Old Doctor did not know whether this room was a good or bad person, but when he saw Xi Jiu Er lying on the bed, he could not help but feel sympathy for him.


    The Old Doctor slowly walked to the bedside and slowly placed his hand on his pulse, his forehead tightly knitted together as he carefully sensed the urgency of his pulse. Just when everyone was holding their breath, waiting for the boss''s words to break the silence, the Old Doctor opened his mouth and said: "This lady is fine, it''s just that her movements today were a bit more severe, in a moment, this old man will open a few foetal antidote s for her and she will be fine."

 C454

    Hearing him say that, Mu Qiu Shui was stunned, and continued after a while: "Is the reason why she is in such pain because her fetal movements are somewhat severe?"


    The old doctor touched his goatee, nodded with a serious face, and said, "This girl''s body is not normal, so the twins only found out about it now, and probably didn''t go to recuperate recently, which caused her to have such a violent pregnancy this time. I''ll write her a prescription later, and you guys can give her some medicine, and it won''t be long before she recuperates, so she won''t be this strong the next time she recuperates."


    Mu Qiu Shui opened his mouth in surprise. He never thought that Xi Jiu Er would actually have a twin child in his womb, although he wasn''t often by her side, but when her stomach rapidly protruded at an extremely strange speed, Mu Qiu Shui was extremely shocked, hearing the old doctor''s words, he guessed that the twin child''s development was probably coming to an end, so the fetal movements this time were especially obvious.


    The room was quiet. The old doctor, seeing that no one was paying him any attention, sat down at a nearby table. He slowly took out a pen and paper, put on a pair of glasses, and carefully wrote down a medicinal list in front of the Xuan paper.


    The old doctor waved his hand and called for the young man to come. After handing over the medicine slip in his hand to him, he then gave a few instructions to the man in front of the bed, who seemed to be the head of this family, for Mu Qiu Shui to remember not to provoke her. He then roughly predicted the date of Xi Jiu Er''s delivery before turning around and slowly walked down the bamboo building with the support of the young man.


    Mu Qiu Shui pinched the soft blanket that was covering Xi Jiu Er''s body, and also gently wiped the sweat off her forehead. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er''s eyebrows had started to relax after he fell asleep, and the paleness on her face also started to lessen, she finally let out a long sigh of relief.


    Xi Jiu Er slept for the whole afternoon, and woke up hungry in the middle of the night. Her stomach growled as she looked at the empty room, with only the candlestick on the table and a little bit of flame.


    Xi Jiu Er was starved for a whole day, her eyes a little dizzy. She wanted to prop herself up and go find something to eat, but only now she realized that it had only been a day, and her stomach had unknowingly bulged out once more.


    The tearing pain in his stomach this morning was still fresh in his mind. She did not know if this child was a blessing or a curse, and only knew that no matter what, this child must be born.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was thinking back to everything that had happened, someone knocked on his door once again, "Jiu Er, are you awake?"


    Xi Jiu Er recognized Mu Qiu Shui, and immediately raised his voice: "Qiushui? I''m awake! "


    "May I come in?"


    "Sure."


    With Xi Jiu Er''s permission, Mu Qiu Shui gently pushed open the door with a smile. His bright smile made Xi Jiu Er feel an inexplicable sense of warmth.


    "Here, drink the medicine first, then eat something."


    Mu Qiu Shui was holding a plate, on it was a bowl of foetal antidote s with an unpleasant smell, and a bowl of fragrant thin meat porridge.


    Mu Qiu Shui first brought the foetal antidote on the plate in front of Xi Jiu Er, "Come, drink the medicine first."


    Xi Jiu Er went closer to him to smell it, then immediately moved far away while pinching her nose, with a look of unable to resist, "No, this medicine is too stinky! I don''t drink. "


    Mu Qiu Shui saw that Xi Jiu Er had the temper of a child, but was not angry. On the contrary, he was smiling from ear to ear, "Be good, after drinking the medicine, I''ll give you a lotus candy, okay? "Don''t worry, as long as you drink it quickly, it won''t be hard."


    With that, Mu Qiu Shui took out a package of candy that was wrapped in kraft paper, and handed it over to Xi Jiu Er.


    After Xi Jiu Er received it, she looked down at the candy in his hand and then looked at the medicine in his hand with difficulty. Such a difficult decision made her feel a little headache.


    Seeing her difficult expression, Mu Qiu Shui gave the medicine bowl in his hand to her at the right time.


    "Fine." Xi Jiu Er looked at the medicine bowl that was about to reach her chin and fortunately, she didn''t stop. Clenching her teeth, he closed her eyes and took it from Mu Qiu Shui''s hands before raising her head and stuffing it into her stomach.


    Although a bowl of warm medicinal soup warmed Xi Jiu Er''s body, it was extremely dangerous for Xi Jiu Er''s tongue, "It''s so bitter," Before Xi Jiu Er could even complain about the pain of the bowl of medicine, Mu Qiu Shui quickly stuffed a piece of candy into his mouth.


    Mu Qiu Shui watched Xi Jiu Er chew the candy gently with an appearance of being as calm as water, causing her heart to feel warm and harmonious.


    If he could keep her by his side for the rest of his life, how wonderful would that be?


    Xi Jiu Er finished eating a piece of candy, and secretly pinched a piece of candy. Before she could put it in her mouth, a pair of slender hands with distinct knuckles immediately snatched the piece of candy from his hand.


    "Eat congee. Don''t eat too much sugar at night. Remember to rinse your mouth when you sleep."


    Mu Qiu Shui brought the steaming hot porridge on the plate in front of Xi Jiu Er, pointed at the candy that was in her arms, then righteously snatched the kraft paper from her hands, then picked up the spoon in the bowl, and carefully fed it to her one bite at a time.


    Xi Jiu Er uneasily took a bite, touched her stomach, and then pointed at Mu Qiu Shui in front of him, saying solemnly: "Child, from now on, this person is your godfather, do you understand?"


    Mu Qiu Shui was a little baffled by her words "godfather" but at the same time, he was also a little sad. After all, looking at his beloved woman giving birth to a child for another man, any man would be depressed.


    But in the next second, Mu Qiu Shui was amused by Xi Jiu Er''s strange elf, "Remember to find your foster father if you want to eat candy in the future. Your foster father''s family is very rich, I can buy a house full of lotus flowers for you.


    After Xi Jiu Er finished speaking, she looked at Mu Qiu Shui with glowing eyes but did not say a word.


    Mu Qiu Shui found her to be extremely funny. He reached out and patted her head, then said with a smile, "Tomorrow, I''ll have someone buy you a Frozen Sugar Gourd, as well as my future foster son."


    Mu Qiu Shui patted her head, and then blew the porridge in his spoon until it was almost cold. Then, he brought it in front of her.


    Mu Qiu Shui felt that ever since Xi Jiu Er became pregnant, her personality had changed a lot. In the past, it was just a noble and beautiful lotus flower, but now it was a cute and charming peach flower.


    Xi Jiu Er ate a mouthful of porridge and chatted with the little fellow while pointing at Mu Qiu Shui. It was obviously her wishful thinking to communicate with the little fellow.


    "Child, in the future, you must use all of your strength to exploit your godfather. He''s a rich man."


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed and nodded, agreeing, "Yes, both of you are here to take advantage of your family''s godfather! "Dad is waiting for you guys!"


    Xi Jiu Er chuckled, "Are you saying that I have twins in my womb?"

 C455

    Mu Qiu Shui acted like he did not care and nodded, "When the doctor checked your pulse in the morning, he said that you have twins in your womb. The past few days have been busy and he did not pay attention to recuperate your body, which was why he felt so much pain during the morning when you were pregnant!"


    Xi Jiu Er waved her hand, and said indifferently: "It''s fine, I guess those little fellows wanted to quickly come out and see mother and godfather, that''s why they are in such a rush to hurt mother."


    Mu Qiu Shui lifted his eyes and looked at her lovingly caressing his lower abdomen. She was so gentle, as if the one he was alone with wasn''t a child.


    Mu Qiu Shui felt the gentleness in her eyes, but they were not directed at him.


    "The doctor said that your expected delivery is in the next few days, so he told us not to make you too excited, that this will stimulate you, and that it will be detrimental to your ability to produce children, so you must be happy for the next few days.


    The light in the room was indistinct, it illuminated the room with its own darkness. Xi Jiu Er was completely focused on the conversation with the child in his womb, unwittingly ignoring Mu Qiu Shui.


    A bowl of meat porridge was eaten for half an hour. In the end, Xi Jiu Er successfully finished the meat porridge and turned it upside down before smacking her lips in satisfaction and lying down on the bed.


    Mu Qiu Shui also put away the bowl and chopsticks in satisfaction, turned around and left Xi Jiu Er''s room.


    As Xi Jiu Er''s stomach grew larger and larger, to the point that it was twice the size of an ordinary person''s, she could only stay on the bed all day. In order to give her a better environment to prepare for childbirth, as well as having someone to watch over her at any time.


    Mu Qiu Shui specially went to the entrance of the village to send out a recruitment notice, the recruitment content was to find two experienced wet nurses or Servant, and take turns guarding Xi Jiu Er''s bedside. In the end, he gave a salary that caused everyone''s eyes to shine with a gold light, and sat in the study room, waiting for people to come forward to apply.


    "Pah pah pah," The door creaked open and Mu Qiu Shui walked out of the study and into the room downstairs.


    Mu Qiu Shui sent someone to open the door, and brought the person who knocked in, following the attendant into the bamboo pavilion.


    What entered his eyes was a young girl around the age of twenty-eight. She had bright eyes and white teeth; she was very charming.


    "This is?" Mu Qiu Shui turned and asked the servant by his side.


    "Master, this lady is here to be hired as a maid!"


    The young imperial bodyguard beside the young girl answered in her place.


    Mu Qiu Shui lifted the cup of tea on the table and asked without raising his head, "What do you know?"


    It was obvious that he was asking the young girl below him, and the young girl consciously replied, "Reporting to Young Master, I can wash clothes and cook, and clean up."


    Mu Qiu Shui continued to ask, "Those don''t matter, do you take care of people? Pregnant women? "


    The young girl nodded, "Of course, I have taken care of Madame at home before."


    Mu Qiu Shui glanced at the girl. The girl lowered her head with a respectful expression, but she was also sincere, "Then you will stay. I''ll give you three days.


    With the blessings of the young lady, Mu Qiu Shui let the servants bring her down to familiarize her with the environment.


    Another woman came at dusk. Seeing that the other party seemed to be very experienced, Mu Qiu Shui asked her to stay.


    In the past few days, Xi Jiu Er had become more and more lazy. Other than staying on the bed all day, she had almost stopped eating and drinking on the bed. The two maids that Mu Qiu Shui had hired were all very hardworking people, especially the girl.


    Xi Jiu Er found out that the young girl was a Miss from a poor family, and for the sake of her family''s livelihood, she had no choice but to be a little girl in a rich family. A while ago, the young master unintentionally saw her and wanted to take her as his concubine.


    He had been prepared to go to the village to visit his family and friends, but he didn''t expect to see a recruitment notice at the village entrance. Seeing that he didn''t have much work to do and his salary was quite high, he came here to apply.


    The girl had a beautiful name called Tao Yao.


    The peach blossoms disappeared into thin air, shining brilliantly.


    On the other hand, she was as charming and beautiful as her name suggested, and she was also very diligent.


    Xi Jiu Er especially liked to chat with Tao Yao. She leaned on the bed, looking at this girl whose eyes were dancing with joy, as if she was looking at her own youth.


    At that time, I was also a pretty girl who had just grown up in my family. Although I don''t like being close to others due to my cold personality, I was still a young girl after all.


    Later on, that auntie was a quiet person, but as long as you had something to say to her, you would definitely receive a satisfactory reply, in addition to a sincere and honest smile.


    Xi Jiu Er asked about his big aunt''s matter when he was free. It was said that this person also had a story.


    Aunt had a disappointing husband, who wanted to eat, drink, and play all day long. She only left the aunt and the three children, who were only a few years old, to run away with a brothel girl. She had no means to support them, so she could only send one child out.


    Before she found a job taking care of Xi Jiu Er, her aunt had not had a single piece of income for a few days. The child in the family ate a thin layer of porridge, so she had no choice but to make an advance payment of ten taels of silver from Mu Qiu Shui to buy rice noodles for her child.


    It was only when the lanterns were lit that the aunt came back, stepping lightly on the wet soil.


    Perhaps it was because he was afraid that Mu Qiu Shui would scold him so easily that he was scared he would be fired if he did something wrong.


    After Xi Jiu Er saw Mu Qiu Shui, she had specially instructed him to give her a raise. As for what name he should use, Xi Jiu Er felt that Mu Qiu Shui should have thought about it at that time.


    It was probably from then on that Xi Jiu Er took special care of Auntie and asked her to bring home whatever was good to eat for her children.


    Every time they met, the aunt would always be grateful to Xi Jiu Er, and would almost kneel down and kowtow to her a few times.


    Maybe because he was about to become a mother, Xi Jiu Er was able to understand the love a mother had for his child, so he took care of this pitiful and hardworking mother.


    Wind Nation, palace, royal study.


    An ethereal voice came from the empty imperial study room. "Your Majesty, we have found the Imperial Concubine''s residence in a remote village a hundred kilometers away from the imperial capital. Your subordinate has already sent an empty person to infiltrate their side.


    Feng Qing Cheng clenched his fingers tightly, and pressed them against his lower jaw, as if he was thinking about something important, and did not take the things that the woman told him to heart at all. After a while, he replied lazily, "Let Kong Yu stay there and take good care of her, if there''s anything else, then return to us."


    "Understood," the woman coldly said, and the palace immediately became silent again.

 C456

    For the past few days, Xi Jiu Er had not been able to rest at all. Even after several days, she was only able to sleep for a few hours under the treatment of the imperial doctors and other medicinal ingredients.


    He had sent out the most elite trump card in his possession, forcing him to throw all of them into the mountains to search for traces of Xi Jiu Er. He refused to believe that this woman would disappear for no reason.


    Even though he suspected that the Great Beijing Dynasty was secretly sent to the imperial city and had ulterior motives towards him, he still brought Xi Jiu Er out together with some people.


    But he never would have thought that the person with ill intentions would actually be the one he relied on the most, the assistant minister of the Military Department, Gui You.


    What was even more unexpected was that this person had been hiding his strength all along. If not for the fact that he had threatened the lives of hundreds of his assistant, he would have exposed all of his remaining chess pieces.


    Feng Qing Cheng had also heard about the mysterious sect. It was said that the sect was hidden in a corner of the Sky Mountain, and after every ten years, they would specially send some talented disciples to replace their masters and come to the mortal world to find disciples who could cultivate their profound techniques.


    It was said that this sect forbade any sects in the martial arts world to make friends, and it was also said that it did not have any connections with mortals.


    The disciples who were willing to stay in the sect could choose to continue cultivating either immortality or other techniques. Those who had improved could choose to follow their own masters or be lured to the Heavenly Court by their own masters.


    Of course, most of these rumors could not be verified, and Feng Qing Cheng initially thought that it was the work of a person who was bored, until one day, when he was communicating with the one sob tribe, he found out that there was a prince of his tribe whose son was once missing for many years. His whereabouts were unknown, and he appeared suddenly, and claimed that he was the descendant of that mysterious sect.


    Although he had been expelled from the sect, his abilities were genuine. He had performed a miracle in front of everyone, in which an immortal was riding on a cloud.


    Following that, he drove the Gu worms into the battlefield, causing heavy losses for the enemy.


    Afterwards, he was secretly poisoned by his rebellious disciple. One of the disciples originally wanted to kill this person to get revenge, but he didn''t expect that the person was actually an illegitimate child that the King of Death had been searching for for for so many years.


    And this illegitimate child not only inherited his master''s clothes, but was also extremely talented, and had used the Gu poison technique to an amazing degree.


    However, if it were not for the fact that Xi Jiu Er coincidentally obtained Poison Saint''s legacy, the Great Beijing Dynasty would never have been able to defeat him in that battle.


    And it was from this matter onwards that Feng Qing Cheng began to secretly search for the remnants of the ocean, hoping to lucky enough to find one or two people from that sect to assist him in unifying the world in one go.


    But he never would have thought that the person he was trying to find day and night was actually by his side. If it wasn''t for Gui You using all sorts of unimaginable miracles, Feng Qing Cheng probably wouldn''t have had a chance to see such a miracle in his entire life.


    However, he was stuck in such a dilemma. If he did not punish Gui You, those arrogant and despotic spies from other countries in the imperial city would just treat him as the useless emperor of the Wind Nation. He wouldn''t even be able to deal with a mere court official who betrayed the imperial government.


    If Gui You was brought to justice, then the precious chance of getting help from the gods would come to naught.


    Furthermore, he was not 100% sure that he could bring Gui You to justice. After all, he was the person who had come out from Mentor, and his abilities could not be underestimated.


    Feng Qing Cheng had a dilemma. He tried to use a favor to exchange for Gui You''s sincerity, but he didn''t expect that the next day, the entire Gui Palace would be empty.


    When Feng Qing Cheng did not manage to find any news of Xi Jiu Er''s disappearance, he still went to the most important person he knew. In any case, during these few days, Feng Qing Cheng basically suffered from insomnia, irritation, and revealed his emotions.


    But thankfully, the trump card in his hand had impressive strength, so Feng Qing Cheng thought that he had moved this round back.


    Xi Jiu Er was in high spirits today, seeing that the weather outside was especially good, she decided to go out and bask in the the sunlight to sterilize it.


    "Tao Yao, I want to go out and bask in the sunlight. Get Mu Qiu Shui to send someone to move the green bamboo bed over there."


    The maid, who was peeling the pears for Xi Jiu Er, hated the work in his hands after hearing this, so he nodded and went downstairs to arrange things.


    Not long after, Tao Yao followed his aunt upstairs. Xi Jiu Er did not know her name, he only knew that her husband''s surname was Li, and called her Aunt Li.


    "Aunt Li, you''ve been busy all day, so it''s alright if you take a nap," Mu Qiu Shui had only found Xi Jiu Er two maids to take care of her, while he himself was taken care of by a servant. However, a group of men did not have the meticulous care of a woman, so the Aunt Li basically took care of all of the laundry and cooking here.


    Sometimes, Tao Yao would extend his hand to help her share of the burden, but was pushed aside quickly by the Aunt Li. Xi Jiu Er could tell that she was doing this to prevent Mu Qiu Shui from choosing his own fault, in order to prevent him from chasing her out.


    Of course, Xi Jiu Er understood that for a villager like himself who only had around ten taels of silver a day, twenty taels of silver would be enough to cover half a year of their living expenses.


    Therefore, many people had come forward to apply, but chose instead, Aunt Li and Tao Yao.


    All of them were tactful people who did not speak much.


    In these few days, quite a few people came to this bamboo building which had been closed for many years to look around. After all, there were so many people living here in one night, and it seemed like there were some rich people living here.


    Everyone was guessing this family''s identity. Some people said that the rich people of the imperial city came here for a stroll, but after seeing them stay for half a month, they didn''t have any intentions of leaving. Thus, some people said that this family was actually great bandits and came here to step on their plates.


    Rumors flew everywhere, allowing the front of the Green Bamboo Restaurant to become quiet for quite a few days. There were a few farmers who would usually leave during the day, and every time they wanted to leave, they would quickly look around. When they saw that there was no one in front of the pavilion, they would quickly run away.


    Another half a month had passed, and when the villagers saw that the village was safe and sound, their hearts were filled with doubts.


    This person was not a Thief, but he had quietly descended upon the village overnight. He lived in the village''s best bamboo tower, and those who could not suppress the doubts in their hearts began to gather at the bottom of the tower.


    Every time Xi Jiu Er laid under the huge peach tree in the courtyard and basked in the sunlight, she would hear whispers coming from outside the courtyard. Although no one was around, she could roughly guess what they were talking about.

 C457

    When their voices had finished, they would look forward to see a few toddlers still mumbling amongst themselves. Previously, these toddlers had only been attracted by Xi Jiu Er, who was sunbathing in the courtyard. Furthermore, Xi Jiu Er liked toddlers, so every time the little toddlers left, they would return with a bunch of melon seeds and fruits.


    After a long time, the village''s children and elders could all see that they did not have any ill intentions. The villagers were simple, and once a guest came from the village, they would give some of their family''s rare foods to the guest as a welcome treat.


    Therefore, every time the little kids dragged a small basket, most of the baskets were filled with fruits and vegetables that the farmers usually ate.


    Xi Jiu Er would usually give them some gifts as well, and sometimes she would ask the guards to bring a piece of dessert as she carried the little kids from house to house.


    Sometimes, they didn''t even need to go out. As long as they called out from the courtyard, "Whose little kid is he?" Someone would immediately run out from the courtyard.


    In the end, the adults who brought their babies home would shyly take the gifts Xi Jiu Er gave them and head back home step by step.


    Xi Jiu Er liked to get along with this kind of person. She didn''t need to plan or plot, and she didn''t need to be observant and understand her opponent''s intentions. She only needed to simply chat and she didn''t need to talk about anything profound.


    They just had to talk about who had planted some crops in the field, who had a child that lasted a hundred months, and who had a fruit tree that had died.


    Such a simple content already made Xi Jiu Er''s mood extremely happy and comfortable for the entire day.


    The sun today was especially good. With the support of Aunt Li and Tao Yao, Xi Jiu Er descended from the bamboo pavilion and walked towards the bamboo pavilion that was placed under the peach tree.


    Xi Jiu Er called out Mu Qiu Shui''s name from the courtyard, not wanting to be informed by the guards, her master was invited by the village chief to be a guest at the house of a person who had just had a child.


    Originally, he wanted to ask Xi Jiu Er to go with him, but''s stomach was growing bigger and bigger. He rarely left his room, and didn''t dare to move too often, so he could only rest on the bed like a pig.


    Therefore, Mu Qiu Shui only asked the guard to pass the message on his behalf and told him not to worry about Xi Jiu Er when he returned.


    Xi Jiu Er lied under the tree and basked in the sun. After hearing everything, she squinted her eyes and nodded, then continued to bathe under the warm sunlight.


    Outside the courtyard, there were a few light footsteps running towards Xi Jiu Er''s bamboo house. Xi Jiu Er had her eyes closed, the corners of her mouth raised high.


    Before he could even see her, he heard a young and tender voice sound out from outside the courtyard. "Aunt Jiu Er, you came out to bask in the sunlight again today?"


    The young and tender voice came closer and closer, before stopping on Xi Jiu Er''s bed. Xi Jiu Er opened her eyes and saw that it was indeed the grandson of the neighboring aunt.


    He had almost reached the age where he could change his teeth. He lost quite a few small teeth, but luckily, they weren''t affecting him from talking or eating for the time being. However, the little kid estimated that it wouldn''t be long before he would be thinking of how he could get the tooth fairy to heal his teeth.


    Xi Jiu Er slightly turned her body, so that she could completely see the little guy.


    "Mu Mu, where are your parents?" Xi Jiu Er reached out to stroke the little child''s head, his tone extremely gentle.


    The child stuck his finger in his mouth as he tilted his head to think about it. Then, he said in a childish voice, "Father, mother went to the imperial capital. Afterwards, you said you wanted to buy some delicious food for the trees."


    Xi Jiu Er started to smile upon hearing this, and gently caressed the little child''s white and tender face.


    Thinking that it might be because their family needed something, the two of them went to the city to gather more ingredients, so they didn''t continue asking. Instead, they got Tao Yao to bring them a plate of pastries.


    Xi Jiu Er pinched a small piece and placed it in the little child''s mouth. Looking at how he was eating so delicately, she couldn''t help but wonder if his child would be as cute and obedient as him in the future.


    The little kid finished off a piece of cinnamon cake, and a pile of pastries was left at the corner of his mouth. Xi Jiu Er then took the silk handkerchief from Tao Yao''s hands and earnestly wiped the corner of his mouth.


    He lightly pinched the child''s chubby cheeks before holding a piece of lotus flower candy and placing it in his hand.


    The little child sat on the small stool and obediently licked the candy in his hands, as if it was the most delicious food in the world. Seeing her cute and innocent appearance, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but to cover his mouth and laugh.


    Xi Jiu Er used a brocade handkerchief to wipe the sweet crumbs around the little child''s mouth, and pushed his little hands to signal for him to continue eating the candy. The little child looked at her, and suddenly laughed foolishly, extending his tongue to lick the lotus candy in his hands, and said tenderly, "Mother said that Aunt is a good person, and the little brother in your stomach will be as adorable as the wood."


    Xi Jiu Er nodded her head as she smiled. Actually, the reason Mu Mu had called her Aunt was because her neighbor''s nephew wanted to sneak in and steal from her son''s house when his son was not home. However, Xi Jiu Er happened to oversee her on the windowsill in her study, and then heard someone crying in the room.


    Fortunately Mu Qiu Shui had rushed over in time, otherwise, Mu Mu Mu''s mother would have become a ghost under the blade. After that, when her family head came to thank Xi Jiu Er, they realised that he was actually younger than Xi Jiu Er by an hour.


    Xi Jiu Er caressed the little child''s little face, planning to continue teasing him when he heard a familiar voice coming from outside. When Xi Jiu Er heard this, her finger that was in midair didn''t drop for a long time.


    "Jiu Er, I didn''t expect that you would actually like children this much. When our children are born, you will definitely be happy as well."


    Feng Qing Cheng leisurely walked into the courtyard. Seeing Xi Jiu Er teasing the little child, his heart could not help but become happier.


    Xi Jiu Er shivered coldly, and turned her head to look at Feng Qing Cheng who had suddenly appeared in disbelief.


    After a moment, he forced himself to calm down, and waved his hand to allow the guard to carry the little child back to his neighbor''s house. Then, he stared coldly at Feng Qing Cheng, closed his eyes, and pretended to bask in the sunlight as if nothing had happened.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s originally joyful mood had been splashed with a bucket of cold water by Xi Jiu Er''s cold and indifferent expression.


    He took three steps to the side of the bed, anger slowly rising in his heart. "Follow me back to the palace."


    Xi Jiu Er pretended not to hear and continued to sleep.


    Feng Qing Cheng saw that she did not want to bother with him, so he did not bother with her.


    "Your Majesty, Jiu Er will not return with you to the palace."

 C458

    It was unknown when Mu Qiu Shui had actually returned, but his scarlet red robe was fluttering in the wind. Although his face was smiling as usual, only Xi Jiu Er could see the anger in his eyes that was about to explode.


    "Oh? The Prince Xian of the Great Beijing Dynasty have actually been reduced into a minute detail, and came to my Wind Nation to lurk, just to steal my Wind Nation''s imperial concubine? This spirit does make us not agree. "


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed brazenly, and walked past Feng Qing Cheng. One of them was as cold as snow, the other had a face full of smiles, but when their eyes met, their eyes were filled with rage, as if they wanted to burn the other party to cinders in order to completely release their anger.


    Xi Jiu Er saw the two of them quietly standing there and secretly competing with each other. Just as she was about to stop them, her lower abdomen suddenly spasmed, followed by a heart wrenching pain. The pain this time was more than ten times worse than when she was moving her fetus.


    The two then entered the house ¡­


    "You''re here?" Prince Xian slowly turned around and looked at the extraordinarily handsome man in front of him. Feng Qing Cheng coldly snorted as he sat down as if it was all a matter of course, "I am her husband, the father of her child. Why don''t I have a reason to come here?"


    "Are you her husband now? The father? You are truly shameless. " Prince Xian venomously said: "Where are you when she needs you? "Pfft, now that you have started to come up with those grand excuses, will you still be ashamed of yourself?"


    "At least it''s better than you. You''re just a villain with a lack of kidney!" Feng Qing Cheng replied with a sneer. Prince Xian''s face changed, he felt that he was truly pitiful, the man in front of him had just spoken some words, he wanted nothing more than for him to die.


    Taking a deep breath, he revealed a slightly flirtatious manner, "Of course I like beautiful women like Jiu Er. You can''t possibly stop me from going, can you?


    Feng Qing Cheng scoffed, "If you like her, then like her. You kept on pestering her to follow her, why didn''t she follow you? Back then I looked down on you, but now you''re still daydreaming right? " ''s words were not wrong when he said that he had stepped on Prince Xian''s tail. Back then, Xi Jiu Er did not take a fancy to him, so now it was even more hopeless.


    "Everyone says that it is a long time since people have seen a drop of water through a stone... Jiu Er is not a heartless woman. " Prince Xian snorted. On the surface, he seemed to take Feng Qing Cheng''s words to heart, and continued to pout his lips in a flirtatious tone: "If not for that child in my womb, I think you would be even worse than me."


    "Losers can only speak quickly." Feng Qing Cheng was very generous, and when Prince Xian saw him like this, he became even angrier. He took a deep breath and asked: "Feng Qing Cheng, can you please ask yourself, what I can do for Xi Jiu Er? To put her first before everything else, to give up everything you have now for her, can you? You can''t, in your eyes, imperial power is the most important thing. You came here to find Jiu Er, perhaps because you truly like him, or perhaps because she has someone close to you in her womb, you don''t want your flesh and blood to drift amongst the commoners! Walk your way! You never knew what kind of life Jiu Er wanted to live! "What she wants is a pair in this life. A man loves her all his life. Can you do it? You ¡­"


    "Who says I can''t do it?" Feng Qing Cheng interrupted the passionate questioning of the Prince Xian, enunciating word by word: "I, Feng Qing Cheng, will only live with Xi Jiu Er for my entire life, and will never find a second woman!"


    Prince Xian was stunned. At this moment, he saw seriousness in Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes. Many words stuck in his throat could not be said. He felt extremely uncomfortable in his chest. Just a moment ago, he said that he could throw away everything for Xi Jiu Er, but in the end, he was still an idle prince. To be a prince, to marry a wife, and to be an emperor, which one would be more difficult? Although there was the emperor''s sole concubine, there were still other concubines in the imperial harem. However, there were only a few. After all, a harem woman was a method of balancing politics. Without those women, it would be very difficult to control them.


    "You said you wouldn''t have a second woman?" The Prince Xian sneered: "Do you think I''m Jiu Er so easy to fool?"


    "Jiu Er has been taken care of by you for a long time, I am very grateful to you. When I wasn''t here, it was all thanks to your care ¡­ " Feng Qing Cheng''s attitude suddenly became as though there were two people in the world, and he bowed to Prince Xian Xi: "Thank you, Mu Qiu Shui."


    Prince Xian let out a cold snort, "No need for your thanks, I volunteered to do that!" After pausing for a moment, a bitter smile revealed itself on his face. "Sigh, who asked my life to not meet the calamity star Xi Jiu Er, I finally understand. As long as she''s happy. "


    Seeing Prince Xian acting like this, Feng Qing Cheng felt sympathy in his heart. It was fortunate that Xi Jiu Er did not reject him like she did, because it was already not bad that Prince Xian did not have any crazy people.


    Xi Jiu Er only felt a spasm in her entire body, as though thousands of needles were stabbing at his stomach with all her might. It was no less than the bone-piercing pain she had originally wanted to endure, but the bone-piercing pain in his stomach forced him back.


    "Ah, the stomach." Xi Jiu Er struggled on the bed while holding onto her own, beads of perspiration trickled down her forehead.


    Feng Qing Cheng and Mu Qiu Shui stood in the courtyard facing each other with swords drawn, and in their eyes, there was a faint spark of light.


    Just as Mu Qiu Shui was about to flare up, he heard Xi Jiu Er cry out from behind him, and immediately turned around to walk forward.


    , who knew that he was behind him, pushed him to the side. Before Mu Qiu Shui could react, he saw Feng Qing Cheng striding past him.


    Feng Qing Cheng walked in front of Xi Jiu Er and anxiously checked his pulse.


    Her pulse had the faint feeling of a magnificent army of thousands upon thousands of men. If she looked closely, it was as though she was walking on a bridge, as if she was in danger of falling off the bridge at any moment.


    Feng Qing Cheng fished her out of the bed with his big hands, carefully holding her in his arms, he walked towards the bamboo house with large steps.


    Mu Qiu Shui quickly followed, his heart burning with anxiety. Suddenly, he thought of something, and raised his voice to shout to the servants who followed him: Go get the midwife, and the doctor, go quickly.


    His voice had just fallen when an ice-cold voice came from inside the bamboo tower. "There''s no need to ask for a doctor. I''m a doctor!"


    Mu Qiu Shui impatiently waved his hand and followed him into the bamboo tower.


    Feng Qing Cheng carefully placed her on the bed and immediately took out a row of acupuncture needles from his sleeves. At this time, Xi Jiu Er was already unconscious from the pain, and he knew that if she continued to stay unconscious, it was extremely possible for her to die from the pain.


    Holding the silver needle in one hand, Feng Qing Cheng''s forehead which was tightly knitted in pain, was gently smoothed down with the other.


    After that, he concentrated all his energy and pierced the silver needle in his hand into the hundred percent acupoint on Xi Jiu Er''s head, and then injected some of his Qi into her body to stabilize the flow of Qi in her body.

 C459

    Mu Qiu Shui stood at the side, nervously clenching his ten fingers tightly, waiting to take action. He knew that Feng Qing Cheng was currently at the most critical juncture of his cultivation, so he could not go forward to disturb him.


    Feng Qing Cheng, who was a few steps away from her, held Xi Jiu Er''s arm tightly and inserted silver needles into various acupoints in her arm. Then, he used his force to open her faintly restless pulse.


    Only then did Xi Jiu Er slowly open her eyes, and stared at the man in front of him in a daze.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not care about the sweat on his forehead, and his clear eyes revealed a trace of self-evident concern and anxiety.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the man she loved the most, who looked to be afraid of losing her, and suddenly felt a lump in her throat. She didn''t know why she wanted to cry, she only knew that this man hadn''t shown such an obvious emotion in a long time.


    Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth, but no one knew what she had said. All they could do was widen their eyes and stare at Yun Che.


    Feng Qing Cheng asked with concern, "Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable? Does your stomach still hurt? "


    Just as Xi Jiu Er wanted to shake her head, she started to scream from the pain, "This is killing me, ah?"


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at Xi Jiu Er, who could still talk to him calmly and peacefully, and suddenly started to tear her heart and lung apart from the pain.


    "How did you treat it? "Make way." Mu Qiu Shui looked at Xi Jiu Er who was trapped in pain once again, and quickly rushed forward, dragging Feng Qing Cheng with him, about to pounce on him.


    Feng Qing Cheng nimbly dodged Mu Qiu Shui''s attack, and used one hand to firmly grab onto Mu Qiu Shui''s fist that was swung over. He coldly looked at him, and turned his head to speak to the servants outside the door, "Quickly go and get the midwife."


    The servant walked over quickly. On the bed, Xi Jiu Er felt a sharp pain all over his body, as he was being painfully bitten, and following it, his lower abdomen started to move. Xi Jiu Er bit her lips, and reached out to stroke her lower abdomen that was already protruding high, her voice trembling, but it was filled with gentleness.


    "Does the baby want to come out? Mother, I''m waiting for you to come out! "


    Xi Jiu Er''s voice was like a touch of Liu Shui in spring.


    The two of them who were fighting each other heard Xi Jiu Er''s gentle voice and were stunned. They stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Xi Jiu Er who was lying on the bed.


    Xi Jiu Er completely ignored the two people who were tearing on the ground, and only wanted to calm the child in his stomach. The two looked at Xi Jiu Er''s forehead as beads of sweat grew larger and larger.


    Just as the two wanted to act extra, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind them. Mu Qiu Shui sprung up like a carp and immediately stood up.


    Feng Qing Cheng raised his somewhat sore arms, and one of them stood up straight. The two of them tidied up the wrinkles on their clothes, then turned and surrounded Xi Jiu Er.


    "Jiu Er, how are you?" Feng Qing Cheng went forward and hugged Xi Jiu Er, and seeing the other party grope his stomach and mutter to himself in a daze, Feng Qing Cheng suddenly had a bad premonition.


    Feng Qing Cheng reached her hand into the quilt, and sure enough, all of the hem of Xi Jiu Er''s lower body skirt was completely drenched by the amniotic fluid.


    Feng Qing Cheng roared at the two people, "Are you courting death? You''re only here now? "


    The attendant was so frightened by Feng Qing Cheng''s roar that he unconsciously trembled. He did not bother to pay attention to him, but instead brought the woman to Mu Qiu Shui''s side and replied: "Master, this is the most experienced midwife in this village."


    Mu Qiu Shui didn''t wait for him to finish speaking before he asked the midwife to go and deliver the child to him immediately.


    The midwife, who was trembling uncontrollably, blessed herself before speaking to the men in the room, "All men in the room are invited to leave. This is the delivery room for women, you guys are unlucky to be here."


    Feng Qing Cheng knew that this man could not enter the delivery room, but looking at Xi Jiu Er''s pale face, he felt especially uneasy. He wanted to stay and accompany Xi Jiu Er, but was forced out by his subordinates.


    Mu Qiu Shui also wanted to stay. After all, this pair of newborns would become his foster son or goddaughter in the future. If he could see them being born with his own eyes, it would be an important choice for him.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked at Feng Qing Cheng who had been invited out by his subordinates, and was secretly rejoicing in his heart, when he heard the voice of the servant behind him saying, "I beg Master to leave the delivery room, this place is not clean, Master must leave."


    Before the attendant could finish speaking, he saw several big men scurrying in from outside the room. Without saying anything, they dragged their master and forcefully brought him out of the delivery room.


    Before Mu Qiu Shui could react, he heard the door behind him slamming shut. When he regained his senses, he was already outside the delivery room.


    Mu Qiu Shui turned and glared at his personal attendant. Unexpectedly, he didn''t bother about him at all, and the few of them pretended as if nothing had happened and looked down at the ants that were crawling on the ground.


    Mu Qiu Shui knew that they were doing this for his own good. It was said that when men gave birth to girls, they had to leave the delivery room, and at most wait outside the delivery room.


    Mu Qiu Shui was like a persimmon that had been beaten black and blue, tirelessly staying outside the delivery room.


    He knew that they were doing it for his own good. He did not know even a bit about the taboos in this delivery room, and that men could not stay in the delivery room. It was said that if a man stayed in the delivery room, it would affect the successful birth of the child, and would even bring him bad luck.


    Feng Qing Cheng was frustrated that he had nowhere to vent his anger on. He stared at the door of the delivery room without blinking, as if he wanted to burn a hole in the door.


    Inside the room, Xi Jiu Er was finally comforted by the midwife and she was laid back onto the bed.


    The midwife was a big and sturdy rural aunt, her voice was thick as she shouted towards the door, "Hurry and heat up the hot water, and scissors, this Madame''s amniotic fluid is already broken, it''s about to be born. Quickly ladle out a basin of hot water."


    When Mu Qiu Shui immediately ordered the servants to go to the kitchen to dive, Tao Yao and Aunt Li hurriedly went up the bamboo building. The two coincidentally bumped into Feng Qing Cheng who was full of anger and had nowhere to vent it out on.


    "You''d better give me a reason to convince me, or you know what will happen."


    Feng Qing Cheng stared at Tao Yao who was hurrying upstairs, and his tone contained a burst of anger, as well as an extremely familiar tone.


    She knew better than anyone else what kind of temperament her master had. If she really ignored Xi Jiu Er''s body and disappeared, her master would always keep to his word. She knew better than anyone else how she would die in the future.


    Tao Yao replied respectfully, "Just now, this Imperial Concubine wanted to eat some fruits. Seeing that the kitchen is gone, this Servant made a trip to the market to buy some fruits.


    After saying that, Tao Yao opened his phone''s cloth bag for Feng Qing Cheng to see.

 C460

    After Feng Qing Cheng heard this, he retracted his anger and turned to continue waiting for the situation inside the delivery room. Then, he heard Aunt Li, who had been quietly standing at the side the entire time, speak out, "Sir, can you let me in to help?"


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at her from head to toe, then nodded his head and instructed Tao Yao to go to the kitchen and urge them to bring up the hot water scissors as soon as possible.


    Aunt Li pushed open the door to the delivery room, and then quickly closed it. She turned around and saw Xi Jiu Er lying on the bed with a thick piece of cloth in her teeth, and the midwife trying to deliver her baby at the end of the bed.


    Aunt Li walked over to Xi Jiu Er''s side and grabbed onto Xi Jiu Er''s soft and weak hand as she recounted some strange information about the room, in order to divert Xi Jiu Er''s attention.


    The midwife raised her head, sweating profusely, and asked, "When will you bring the hot water and scissors?" This Madame is about to be born. "


    Aunt Li shook her head anxiously. Then, she heard the door open, "Aunt Li, quickly go and help the midwife."


    Tao Yao carried a large basin of hot water, struggled to open the door, and then struggled to close it.


    Tao Yao carefully placed the hot water at the end of the bed, and changed the position with Aunt Li. With one hand, he took out a brocade handkerchief that was embroidered with a white flower, and helped Xi Jiu Er wipe the sweat on his forehead.


    Xi Jiu Er tightly shut her mouth, wanting to swallow all of the pain. Unfortunately, this kind of extreme pain, which tore at one''s heart and split one''s lungs, finally did not have that kind of endurance.


    Mu Qiu Shui slapped the door and shouted loudly, "Jiu Er, Jiu Er, what''s wrong?"


    Hearing that, Tao Yao immediately replied: "Young Noble, Young Noble is fine, Madame just had a bit of fatigue and happened to meet with movement of the fetus."


    After Mu Qiu Shui heard this, he was extremely nervous, "Are you alright now?"


    Tao Yao who was inside continued: "I''m fine, young master don''t worry, Madame is fine."


    When Mu Qiu Shui heard the noise coming from inside the house, he calmed himself down, and held his chest as he took a deep breath. Fortunately, he was unharmed. Otherwise, he wouldn''t even know how to go down.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at him coldly, determined to bring Xi Jiu Er back to the palace quickly. Looking at Mu Qiu Shui''s nervous expression, he might have already thought of his peony flower, if he did not take Xi Jiu Er back quickly, Feng Qing Cheng was afraid that he would really bring Xi Jiu Er away from him one day.


    As he thought about it, Feng Qing Cheng treated the Mu Qiu Shui in front of him as a love rival. The eyes that looked at him were filled with sharp thorns, just like the most flirtatious Gardenia jasminoides in the winter in Wind Nation.


    And what Feng Qing Cheng wanted to do the most right now was to teach Mu Qiu Shui a lesson so that he would covet his own woman, and even have his own blood. Yet, Mu Qiu Shui coveted his own blood so blatantly, which Feng Qing Cheng simply could not endure.


    Mu Qiu Shui felt a burning gaze from behind him, he hugged the door and tried his best to take a peek, but he was also attracted by the strange gaze and turned around just in time to meet Feng Qing Cheng''s fierce gaze.


    "What are you looking at? Do you need a beating? " Mu Qiu Shui waved his fist, his expression filled with hatred and viciousness.


    Feng Qing Cheng also did not say anything, and only coldly stared at him. He would not compare notes with such a person in front of his servants, and Feng Qing Cheng would definitely not do something so disrespectful. As long as he used his own ice-cold eyes to stare at him, it would be enough to turn him into an ice cube.


    Seeing that he did not have any intentions to bother with, Mu Qiu Shui was too lazy to bother with him. She turned around and laid on the door again, carefully listening to every single movement inside the house.


    Inside the room, Xi Jiu Er''s lower body was in extreme pain, her lower lip had a row of bite marks, both of her hands which were tightly holding onto the blanket were drenched in sweat, at that moment, it seemed as though all her energy had been lost, as though she had forgotten how to breath.


    A clear cry sounded, causing Xi Jiu Er to open her tired eyes slightly, and she immediately fell into a deep slumber.


    In the midst of the darkness, Xi Jiu Er felt as if she would never wake up again, or perhaps she had never left this dark place before. Everything was a dream, a boundless dream, and endless nightmares.


    There were no tricks and plots there, no schemes and plots, no existence of Feng Qing Cheng, only his grandfather and him, and the twins that he had just given birth to.


    Xi Jiu Er was a little tired, looking at this boundless darkness, she suddenly had a strange thought that she wanted to leave behind.


    Gradually, sleepy, Xi Jiu Er wanted to find a place to sleep. Only then did she realise that the pair of children that she had just given birth to were not by her side.


    Xi Jiu Er looked around in panic. But there were twins somewhere in the dark, and she didn''t even know where she was, let alone what twins were.


    "Child, my child, where are you?" Xi Jiu Er kneeled on the ground and called out to his child sorrowfully in the darkness.


    Inside the house, Feng Qing Cheng was the first to rush into the delivery room, but he did not look at the child that was just born in Tao Yao and Aunt Li''s arms.


    Without looking back, he ran to the front of Xi Jiu Er''s bed and knelt down abruptly, extending his hand to feel her pulse.


    "Jiu Er, Jiu Er?" When Feng Qing Cheng held onto her pulse, he realized that her hair had been cut off, and he could no longer feel any trace of her pulse.


    He lifted up Xi Jiu Er''s blanket and looked at her lower body that was completely drenched in blood. The midwife beside her immediately cried out in shock, "Blood ¡ª ¡ª Bloodbath!"


    This sound attracted the attention of everyone in the room. Mu Qiu Shui, who was purposely not disturbing the couple, who was standing next to the midwife and playing with the baby that had yet to open his eyes, immediately rushed to Xi Jiu Er''s bed after hearing it. Seeing Xi Jiu Er, who had his eyes tightly shut and an incomparably pale complexion, his heart suddenly shook.


    "Jiu Er, Jiu Er, wake up. I haven''t brought you back to the Great Beijing Dynasty yet, so you can''t fall asleep here."


    Mu Qiu Shui dropped his hand as he grabbed Xi Jiu Er, begging her to wake up quickly.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not bother to pay attention to Mu Qiu Shui anymore, he coldly called for the guard behind him to tell him a few herbs, and then explained the places to pay attention to, then ordered him to quickly go and catch the medicine.


    "Get out of the way, we want to stop the bleeding for Xi Jiu Er!" Feng Qing Cheng coldly said as he reached out and pushed Mu Qiu Shui, who was kneeling on the ground, away from him. He sat in front of her and once again took out the silver needle.


    Using his inner strength to pour into the silver needles, he pulled up Xi Jiu Er''s clothes from his stomach and closed the curtain, preventing others from entering.

 C461

    After inserting the silver needle into the ShenQue Acupuncture Point, he used his inner force to help him remove Xi Jiu Er''s socks. Then, he inserted a silver needle into the Yongquan Acupuncture Point as well as a few other important acupuncture points in order to stop the blood flowing out of Xi Jiu Er''s uterus.


    Before long, even the blood under Xi Jiu Er''s body had changed from red to dark brown, and a few had already started to form scabs;


    Mu Qiu Shui wanted to pull open the curtain and go in, but he heard Feng Qing Cheng say, "You want Jiu Er to appear in front of you naked?"


    Mu Qiu Shui was startled, his hand still holding onto a corner of the curtain, the other party''s tone full of disdain made him slightly angry, but because Xi Jiu Er was still unconscious, and was still in danger of becoming angry, he could only dryly throw away the curtain in his hand, turned around, and walk to the corner to adjust himself.


    When the last silver needle pierced into Xi Jiu Er''s Divine Acupoint, the fingers that was tightly clenched around Xi Jiu Er''s fingers could clearly feel the other party slightly trembling. "Feng Qing Cheng ¡­"


    "Jiu Er, Jiu Er, quickly come back. Our children are still waiting for you to give them their names!" Feng Qing Cheng made a rare gentle and loving love as she moved close to Xi Jiu Er''s ear and called out to him softly.


    Feng Qing Cheng had once heard that there was a mysterious book that resembled a witch in this world. If someone accidentally lost a child and was found to be unable to recognize their family, then the elder would go to the place where the child had disappeared and use the child''s clothes to call the child''s name. The child would then be given the clothes to wear.


    Later on, many families liked to use this method to "wake up" people who were seriously ill. It was said that the effect was quite good.


    Feng Qing Cheng was only desperate to try and see if this method could be used by the people, but he didn''t really think that he would be called back.


    Feng Qing Cheng grabbed Xi Jiu Er''s hand, and started to tremble slightly. He was truly afraid that the heavens had taken this woman away, leaving him with nothing to live for the rest of his life with.


    But thankfully, the heavens still had a trace of compassion, and he gave Xi Jiu Er back to him, along with the two newborns.


    "Jiu Er, are you alright?" Feng Qing Cheng went closer, turned his head, and whispered into Xi Jiu Er''s ear.


    Mu Qiu Shui saw that there was something strange going on with Xi Jiu Er, and guessed that she had awoken. She hurriedly lifted the curtain, and saw that Xi Jiu Er, who was in Feng Qing Cheng''s embrace, had a pale face.


    Xi Jiu Er raised his head slightly and saw the two''s worried expressions. Her entire body felt weak, and she didn''t want to speak either. She only shook his head, then closed her eyes and went back to sleep.


    How could Feng Qing Cheng continue to stay in such a filthy and inauspicious place like this? Hence, the Wind Nation''s emperor personally took Xi Jiu Er, who was covered in blood, to the left wing, and forcefully drove him away.


    After a period of false alarm, Feng Qing Cheng justifiably lived in a bamboo house with himself as the best doctor. Every day, he would touch Xi Jiu Er''s chest with the excuse of feeding him medicine, causing Mu Qiu Shui, who was watching the two by the side, to feel a wave of jealousy and hatred.


    Who asked him to be a father? Although she was not the principal wife, but at least she was given a title, and even allowed her to give birth to two children. She was a step too late, so she could only watch quietly as Feng Qing Cheng purposely made love with Xi Jiu Er in front of her, causing her mixed feelings.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s indifferent "eating tofu" made Mu Qiu Shui''s teeth itch in anger and hatred. He woke up several times in the middle of the night, and felt a faint pain in his back.


    After a few days, early one morning, Mu Qiu Shui''s guard had come to wake him up for breakfast. After breakfast, the guard respectfully served him a bowl of black, sticky traditional Chinese medicine.


    Mu Qiu Shui stared at him suspiciously, he did not say a word, but the latter could not remain calm and told him the whole story.


    It turned out that a few days ago, a guard woke up in the middle of the night to go out on a whim. When he passed by Mu Qiu Shui''s room, he would hear a wave of frightened grinding of teeth, and after the guard had secretly stuck to the door for a while, he realized that not only was there the sound of grinding teeth, but there were also faint sounds of cursing coming from inside. The guard overheard for a long while but he could not figure out who it was cursing.


    The guard thought that his master had gotten up in the middle of the night and come out to harass a villain when no one was around. Although he did not know why he guessed that his master was trying to harass a villain, he thought that his master was trying to harass a villain.


    When the guard was trembling in fear while waiting for his master to come out and take care of him, he suddenly heard a furious curse from the other side of the door. The guard was not paying attention, so he could be sure that his master was truly furious.


    Just as the guard was about to run away, a sound of gritting teeth came from inside again. That sound was like the sound of blacksmiths forging iron, and in the pitch black night, it was extremely strange. The guard was so scared that his legs went limp.


    The next day, the guard came to a conclusion.


    His master must have watched Feng Qing Cheng loving his master for many days, causing his heart to burn with passion and his blood to boil. He must have gotten angry in the past few days, thus, a few days later, the guard specially went to find a highly respected and skilled doctor, giving his master this medicine which could cleanse the heart and reduce the fire and regulate one''s Qi.


    After Mu Qiu Shui heard the guards'' intermittent truths, he glared at him fiercely as he drank all of the black medicine with one hand and a strange smell with the other. After drinking it, he waved his hand and warned the guards to not appear in front of him within three days.


    In fact, that night, Mu Qiu Shui had dreamed that Feng Qing Cheng was intimate with him, and that fellow even especially showed him his love. Mu Qiu Shui really wanted to go up and slap him to death, but it was a pity that he couldn''t move from his dream, and could only watch as his beloved was kissed by Feng Qing Cheng.


    Thus, Mu Qiu Shui continued his life of jealousy and envy. If it wasn''t for the fact that Xi Jiu Er had just given birth to a twin, she would still be sitting in the same spot, unable to move. According to Mu Qiu Shui''s temperament, he would have immediately rushed back to Great Beijing Dynasty with Xi Jiu Er in his arms without looking back.


    Xi Jiu Er was half lying on the bed, listening to the sound of the rain dripping on the bamboo leaves, she suddenly felt like eating the steamed bun made by the Aunt Li, hence she called for Tao Yao, the servant outside the house.

 C462

    "Go ask the Aunt Li to make some brown sugar steamed bun, I have a big craving for one today!"


    Tao Yao quickly walked to Xi Jiu Er''s bed, lowered his head, and did not agree. After a long while, under Xi Jiu Er''s puzzled expression, he finally unsteadily revealed the reason behind his hesitation. )))


    It turned out that a few days ago, Aunt Li had unintentionally knocked over the bird''s nest Feng Qing Cheng had instructed him to make. It had attracted Feng Qing Cheng''s dissatisfaction, threw a few taels of silver to her and dismissed her.


    Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er''s heart had a hint of anger, it seemed that she was being too hasty to dismiss him, so Xi Jiu Er immediately asked Tao Yao to go and invite Feng Qing Cheng, she wanted to properly discuss this matter of life and death with this Emperor of Wind Nation who did not care about the hardships of the people.


    Feng Qing Cheng leisurely walked up the bamboo building with the maid Tao Yao. He actually wanted to hear what Xi Jiu Er had to say to him.


    "Why did you chase Aunt Li out? Didn''t she accidentally break the nest? Do you have to hold on tight? " Xi Jiu Er leaned on the bedside, glanced at Feng Qing Cheng, and then did not look at him again.


    Feng Qing Cheng could hear the dissatisfaction in Xi Jiu Er''s words, but he did not believe her. Instead, he slowly strolled over to her bed and smiled.


    "Why can''t you dismiss her? Since she destroyed the Main House''s possessions, I have a reason to dismiss her. Tomorrow, I will have Tao Yao bring a few experienced and observant female servants to the palace to serve you. "


    Feng Qing Cheng spoke gently to Xi Jiu Er in a rare situation, but she didn''t expect him to reject it. He turned around and ignored her, paused for a bit, and said, "I don''t need anyone to serve me, I just want Aunt Li. Either you bring Aunt Li back for me, or disappear for me, and never appear before my eyes again."


    Xi Jiu Er was indeed a little angry. She thought that since Feng Qing Cheng had such a good reputation and reputation in the Wind Nation, he would definitely treat the common people sincerely.


    Feng Qing Cheng frowned, her tone somewhat fretful, "You want to break all ties with us just for a countryside woman?"


    Feng Qing Cheng was getting angry, and unconsciously called himself "We", he did not have any intention to suppress Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er misunderstood him, thought that he wanted to reveal his identity as the Emperor, and wanted to suppress him.


    "Your majesty the Emperor, this is not your palace. If you want to use your identity to suppress me, then His Majesty''s plans will not work. I, Xi Jiu Er, will not accept your plan."


    Xi Jiu Er''s hateful words enraged Feng Qing Cheng in an instant. She only saw Feng Qing Cheng get up, brush his sleeves and leave without turning back.


    Tao Yao who was serving by the side felt the faint lightning sparks in the air, and immediately, he bent down and walked out of the house, and served outside.


    Feng Qing Cheng was indeed a person who kept his promises. A few days later, he would appear in the bamboo tower with a bunch of palace maids.


    The villagers started to speculate where these women came from and who the cold man in the bamboo house was.


    Who were these people who suddenly came to this small village? Not long after, there were many villagers gathered outside of the bamboo house. When they were free, they would stand in a group and whisper while pointing at the bamboo house.


    Xi Jiu Er, however, was not aware of the liveliness outside the bamboo building. Looking at the rows before her, and counting carefully, there were around seventy to ninety well-behaved female servants, she looked at the palace maid in front of her, beads of cold sweat running down her forehead. She thought that Feng Qing Cheng was only joking, how could he possibly bring the palace maid out to serve his?


    Who would have thought that Feng Qing Cheng would actually keep his promise and bring so many palace maids in just three or four days? Xi Jiu Er immediately felt that Feng Qing Cheng was definitely not as thrifty as the rumors he had heard about.


    Which emperor would be so thrifty as to send so many maids to serve a single person at once? Besides, where could the emperor be truly thrifty? It was just something I purposely made up to flatter her.


    Xi Jiu Er casually raised her hand, just as sshe was about to ask the palace maids to go down, he saw a particularly familiar face amongst the palace maids.


    Xi Jiu Er saw a cute, cute, and seemingly pure woman standing in the middle among the palace maids. As she focused her eyes, he was indeed the woman who had served him in the Imperial Palace and also leaked her plan of first escape to Feng Qing Cheng.


    Seeing the Wan Yun in front of him who was pretending to be nothing, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but feel a wave of disgust, and the gaze he looked at her with was filled with disdain.


    "Wan Yun?" Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth to confirm once again that she really recognized the right person.


    Unexpectedly, the woman lowered her eyebrows and pretended to be respectful as she blessing Xi Jiu Er, her voice was clear and gentle, "Returning to Imperial Concubine, it''s Wan Yun."


    Xi Jiu Er saw her feigning respect, as if the person who betrayed him was not her, but someone else. Xi Jiu Er felt unexplainable discomfort in her heart, and immediately called for Tao Yao to send all the palace maids down, allowing him to lie on the bed again.


    Outside the house, Mu Qiu Shui watched as a line of palace maids filed out before leisurely walking in.


    "What happened today?" Mu Qiu Shui''s voice that carried a smile caused him to look up for an instant.


    Xi Jiu Er treated Mu Qiu Shui as her best friend, so there were many things that weren''t happy with him, not to mention that it was just a small matter of meeting someone that she loathed.


    "Oh? Which one of the palace maids is the one you hate? " Xi Jiu Er turned over and looked at Mu Qiu Shui, who was in front of him.


    After Mu Qiu Shui finished listening, he wondered if Feng Qing Cheng had intentionally sent this woman to monitor him, but on the surface, she pretended to be serious as she comforted Xi Jiu Er.


    "Don''t worry, this time, with me by your side, when your body is better, Yue Zi will finish doing it, and we will ride back to Great Beijing Dynasty quickly. Wei Guogong has long wished for you to bring the two brats back so that we could have a grandson!"


    Mu Qiu Shui intentionally switched the topic to Wei Guogong, thinking that Xi Jiu Er, who had just had a child, would inevitably have a bad effect on her body, and would become depressed because of these small matters.


    After that, the two talked about some other things, but most of them were talking about the twins. Mu Qiu Shui wanted Xi Jiu Er to let the twins see him as their godfather, Xi Jiu Er agreed with him but did not know if his love rival Feng Qing Cheng would agree, after all, who would want his love rival to recognize his child as his foster son, and give him the chance to get close to Xi Jiu Er?


    However, Mu Qiu Shui, who had to do everything he could do, fearlessly went to look for Feng Qing Cheng, but the other party immediately let him have a meal of "shut doors".

 C463

    Just as Mu Qiu Shui was feeling extremely depressed, Feng Qing Cheng had also sunk deep into the clouds of suspicion.


    Feng Qing Cheng had always thought that although his medical skills were inferior to his master''s, he could still be considered as one of the few doctors with superb skills in the world.


    However, he did not expect to fail in the small matter of merely diagnosing Xi Jiu Er''s wedding vein.


    Previously, when Xi Jiu Er was pregnant, he especially diagnosed that there was only one word on her abdomen, but during childbirth, she actually gave birth to a pair of twins.


    It was naturally not appropriate for Feng Qing Cheng to ask Xi Jiu Er directly, but his subconscious told him that this matter was definitely related to that demon-level character Mu Qiu Shui.


    Thus, on the second day, Feng Qing Cheng specially went to find Mu Qiu Shui, and invited him to a tavern in the village with a warm and rare voice.


    What was even more difficult was that he had gone to the pub in advance to wait for him. When Mu Qiu Shui stepped on the time and saw the Feng Qing Cheng who had already started drinking, he was even more confused.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at Mu Qiu Shui who was walking over from the doorstep towards him, and a burst of anger swept past his eyes.


    "You did say that." Mu Qiu Shui lazily stretched as he leaned against the wall and sat down.


    It was not even noon yet, so only Mu Qiu Shui and Feng Qing Cheng were drinking in the corner. The bartender was dozing off at the counter, and the owner had run off somewhere.


    "The twins that Jiu Er gave birth to, is number two yours?"


    Feng Qing Cheng lowered his head and drank his wine, then threw out a heavy bomb.


    Mu Qiu Shui was blown away by his sudden words, and only after a while did she recall him. "Second brother?"


    As if he really didn''t want Feng Qing Cheng to look at him, he kept his head lowered and drank a cup of turbid wine before continuing, "Don''t you think that second brother''s appearance is very similar to yours?"


    Mu Qiu Shui raised his eyebrows, and turned his head to ponder for a moment, then with a serious expression he replied, "Ol ''Two should be my child."


    Before he even finished speaking, Mu Qiu Shui heard a creaking sound from the wooden table beneath his hand. Lowering his head to look carefully, the originally weak wooden table had cracks on the width of a thumb, and following the source of the crevices, he was surprised to see that under Feng Qing Cheng''s palm, there were crevices of various sizes, which looked like twisted worms.


    Mu Qiu Shui quickly stood up, "What are you trying to do?"


    Feng Qing Cheng''s face was cold and his eyes were filled with anger, "When did you ¡­"


    Before he finished speaking, Mu Qiu Shui hurriedly shook his head, "It''s not what you think.


    "Oh? You better explain to me how I can make you feel so helpless. Otherwise, you can forget about escaping Wind Nation alive. "


    Mu Qiu Shui swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and was slightly shocked. A moment later, he told her the whole story.


    Originally, Xi Jiu Er had been forced to cure her poison one time when her life was in danger, but Xi Jiu Er had no idea about all this and thought that Mu Qiu Shui had only found a way to save her.


    Feng Qing Cheng''s face was dark as he listened to Mu Qiu Shui''s entire story. He held back the anger in his heart and suddenly crushed the phone''s yellow wine bowl, standing up and fiercely smashing it onto Mu Qiu Shui''s body.


    Feng Qing Cheng had already used close to half of his attack power for this strike. Before he could even circulate his energy to defend against it, he was smashed to the ground by Feng Qing Cheng''s palm.


    "Even though you were forced to do that useless thing to save Jiu Er, you have touched my woman. If you did not know that you were forced to do so, then you would definitely not be able to leave this tavern today. If you still dare to have any intentions towards Jiu Er, then don''t blame me for being merciless, and even more so, think of leaving the Wind Nation alive."


    Feng Qing Cheng threw down those fierce words, turned around and walked out of the tavern.


    Just now, when he heard that the child Xi Jiu Er had given birth to had a piece of his own flesh, he had actually thought of bringing them back to the Great Beijing Dynasty, so that he could formally propose to the Wei Guogong to betroth Xi Jiu Er to him.


    However, he did not expect Feng Qing Cheng to guess it. He was infuriated for a moment, and he was also filled with unwillingness. Why did he, Feng Qing Cheng, have to force Xi Jiu Er to stay by his side for her entire life?


    Xi Jiu Er clearly wanted to escape from the Imperial Palace and return to the Great Beijing Dynasty with him. Why did that man shamelessly want to forcefully tie a woman who did not love him by her side?


    Mu Qiu Shui pressed on his chest, where Feng Qing Cheng''s palm seemed to have struck his heart veins, as a sharp pain assaulted him, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.


    The bartender was woken up by the loud sound of Feng Qing Cheng hitting the table and looked at the messy floor in front of him with wide eyes and a look of disbelief. When he regained his senses, he saw Mu Qiu Shui''s miserable state of being smacked onto the ground, and immediately ran over fearlessly.


    Mu Qiu Shui gnashed his teeth in pain, he was confused by the bartender''s stare, he turned and looked at the fifteen to sixteen year old youth, and imitated him as he blinked his eyes, completely confused.


    The bartender saw that Mu Qiu Shui did not understand and immediately pointed to the table that Feng Qing Cheng had smashed, and indicated that he should not forget to pay.


    Mu Qiu Shui stared at the mess on the ground, silently rolled his eyes, took out a money pouch from his chest, and threw it towards the young bartender without even looking at it.


    The bartender grabbed the money bag and carefully counted the money like he was a treasure. Mu Qiu Shui shook off the bartender''s arm and limped out of the tavern.


    The bartender chuckled from behind him, "Dear customer, welcome to our next visit."


    Mu Qiu Shui rolled his eyes at the sky as he silently cursed in his heart. In the future, whoever comes to your house to drink will become a bastard, and seeing that he was beaten up and even had a face full of schadenfreude, he should always be selling wine in this little village.


    Mu Qiu Shui held one hand to his chest as he walked along the dirt road. The strike from Feng Qing Cheng''s palm was not light, Mu Qiu Shui felt that his heart meridian was severely injured, and the severe coughing caused blood to continuously gush out of his mouth. If not for the fact that he did not specifically prevent the servants to follow him, he would not have been ambushed so easily by Feng Qing Cheng.


    It wasn''t easy for Feng Qing Cheng to get out of the bamboo house, but he was really unable to move. As he walked towards the interior of the bamboo house, he let out a low whistle, and leaned against the wall of the bamboo house as he gasped for breath.


    Before long, three people ran out from the house. Mu Qiu Shui didn''t want to explain anything to them and extended his hand out, gesturing for them to help him into the house.


    In the next few days, Mu Qiu Shui spent all of them in his own room. He specifically ordered the servants not to tell Xi Jiu Er about him being injured, in case she got angry after knowing about it.

    However, there was no wall in the world that could not be exposed. Xi Jiu Er had unintentionally heard Feng Qing Cheng injuring him from the mouths of the guards.


    This time, Xi Jiu Er did not send anyone to invite Feng Qing Cheng in, but rather directly closed the door, not allowing anyone other than Tao Yao to enter.


    Feng Qing Cheng was a little jealous and a little angry when he heard about how he had injured Mu Qiu Shui. He never knew that Xi Jiu Er actually cared so much about Mu Qiu Shui, thinking that she really liked him.


    From the guard''s mouth, Mu Qiu Shui found out about the cold war between him and Feng Qing Cheng, and had mixed feelings about it. Even though he felt a little sorry for Xi Jiu Er, he was also angry because of his guard''s big mouth.


    Such a complicated emotion made Mu Qiu Shui''s mind unsettled for an entire day. In the evening, he finally decided to go and see Xi Jiu Er.


    "Jiu Er, are you alright?" With the help of a guard, Mu Qiu Shui limped into Xi Jiu Er''s room and stuck close to the door as he spoke softly.


    "Autumn Water?" "Come on in." Xi Jiu Er replied from inside the house.


    Mu Qiu Shui subconsciously wanted to push open the door, but he accidentally pulled the wound on his chest. After taking in a deep breath of cold air, he calmed down a little and let the guards push open the door.


    When Xi Jiu Er saw that Feng Qing Cheng was supported in by a guard, his originally rosy cheeks had already been replaced with a deathly white color. "Qiushui, what''s wrong? Is your wound serious? " Xi Jiu Er saw that Mu Qiu Shui was struggling to move, and immediately got out of bed.


    Seeing that she was about to get off the bed, Mu Qiu Shui immediately stopped her, "No, you''re still in Yuanzi, you can''t move around as you wish."


    As he spoke, he quickened his pace and arrived in front of her within a few steps. He reached out his hand to stop her from getting off the bed, then with much difficulty pushed her onto the bed. After covering her with the blanket, he sat on the edge of the bed and panted?


    "Feng Qing Cheng was too much, he actually injured himself, what is the meaning of this? Is it because of me? "


    Xi Jiu Er moved closer to look at Mu Qiu Shui''s anxious expression, as he held onto his chest and gasped for air. The concern in his eyes was self-evident.


    "No, it''s because of the conflict between our two countries, so we started the fight, but my skills are inferior, do you not blame Feng Qing Cheng?"


    Mu Qiu Shui panted heavily, and only stopped after a long while. Feng Qing Cheng had indeed attacked heavily this time, and a few guards rotated to help Mu Qiu Shui recover from his injuries, but I was unable to disperse all the blood clots in his chest. So if he moved even a little, Mu Qiu Shui''s wounds would cause him to gasp for breath non-stop.


    Xi Jiu Er obviously did not believe that Mu Qiu Shui would fight with Feng Qing Cheng, because she knew Mu Qiu Shui''s personality. She knew that if could get injured, then he would be a peerless expert and it would be a sneak attack when Mu Qiu Shui was completely caught unprepared, which would cause him to be injured to such an extent.


    Even though Xi Jiu Er could not believe it, she could not find out even a little about Feng Qing Cheng injuring him from the other party''s mouth. She knew that Mu Qiu Shui did this because he did not want her to suffer even a little injury while sitting in the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest.


    Xi Jiu Er was actually moved in her heart. It was rare for her to have a bosom friend in her life, and Mu Qiu Shui was the most important close friend to her.


    Feng Qing Cheng continuously explained, his own injuries had nothing to do with Feng Qing Cheng, and as he coughed in extreme pain, Xi Jiu Er remembered that he still had a bottle of sacred water that he left behind for his grandfather to remove the Gu in his hands. He immediately ordered Tao Yao to the side to look for the divine medicine in his previous room.


    Just as Tao Yao was about to leave the room, Mu Qiu Shui hurriedly signaled his guard to go out and guard the door to prevent anyone from entering.


    Mu Qiu Shui glanced at the door with a strange expression, "Jiu Er, be careful of that woman called Tao Yao. That woman is a spy sent by Feng Qing Cheng."


    Xi Jiu Er was startled, and asked suspiciously: "Did Feng Qing Cheng send them? "Qiushui, how did you know?"


    Mu Qiu Shui went closer and told Xi Jiu Er everything from when he was giving birth to the time where he saw Feng Qing Cheng "Your Majesty" to when he pretended not to know anything.


    Xi Jiu Er could not believe it, she had never suspected this maid before because she did not believe that it would be that easy for Feng Qing Cheng to find his, and she had even placed the details at her side soundlessly. She had thought that ever since the last time they ran, Feng Qing Cheng already knew the limits of what he should be, but it was completely useless.


    Mu Qiu Shui looked at her tightly knotted forehead, and for a moment, he was not sure if it was good or bad that he had told her about this.


    But he did not want Xi Jiu Er to suffer a loss at Feng Qing Cheng''s hands again.


    Out of good intentions, Mu Qiu Shui finally succeeded in seeing the dark clouds covering Xi Jiu Er''s face.


    "Jiu Er, you better not be angry. This is not worth it.


    Xi Jiu Er turned her head around and nodded seriously, as though she was not angry at all, she was only thinking about why Feng Qing Cheng was so shameless, this deep question.


    "Don''t worry, I won''t be angry with him. He isn''t worthy." Xi Jiu Er stared at Mu Qiu Shui''s wound in the blink of an eye, and asked anxiously: "Are you feeling better now?"


    Mu Qiu Shui looked at her suddenly tensed up appearance, and only laughed: "It''s fine, I''ll just recuperate for a few days, you''re much more expensive than me."


    Mu Qiu Shui smiled lovingly, and once again reached out to tuck her in, he caressed her long hair and said, "Jiu Er, we''re both human mothers now, we have to live together with the one we love in the future."


    Mu Qiu Shui knew that he had to return empty-handed this time after chasing after him. The reason why Feng Qing Cheng was able to find this little village and have Xi Jiu Er give birth to children here seemed to be because he wanted to pacify Xi Jiu Er for the time being. After the child was born and after Xi Jiu Er''s month was over, he would definitely bring them back to the Imperial Palace.


    Even if he wanted to bring her back to the Great Beijing Dynasty, he didn''t have a single soldier now. If he wanted to contend against Feng Qing Cheng, that would be no different from an egg that would hit a stone, and he overestimated himself.


    So this time, Mu Qiu Shui was deeply aware that he couldn''t take Xi Jiu Er away, but he was also reluctant to let her spend her entire life in that palm-sized place.


    "Qiushui, you ¡­" Xi Jiu Er subconsciously felt that Mu Qiu Shui''s words contained hidden meanings, he was unable to make sense of them for a moment, and stopped halfway through.


    Mu Qiu Shui caressed her hair greedily, pretending to be indifferent as he laughed: "It''s okay, it''s just that I''m suddenly a little reluctant, afraid that I won''t be able to see you again."


    Looking at his childish look, Xi Jiu Er couldn''t help but find it funny. "Alright, I won''t leave, let''s go to Great Beijing Dynasty together, I want my children to worship you as their godfather! You have to prepare a big red packet! "


    Mu Qiu Shui''s smile was especially gentle, but his heart was extremely sad. He was clearly his own child, yet he treated his own son as his foster son, and wanted to give them to someone else as a gift. Mu Qiu Shui was not convinced, but what could he do?

 C465

    They were all perfectly disguised under that beautiful appearance.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the gentleness in his eyes and felt really sad. Her best friend had been bullied by someone she loved, so Xi Jiu Er felt that it was really necessary for her to seriously talk to Feng Qing Cheng now. Ever since Feng Qing Cheng came here, she could feel his deep hostility towards Mu Qiu Shui.


    Just as Xi Jiu Er was considering whether or not she should break the cold war and have a proper chat with Feng Qing Cheng, an unexpected event had occurred, catching him off guard.


    And the victim in this matter, was still Xi Jiu Er.


    The matter was this, and today Xi Jiu Er was about to let Tao Yao go to the kitchen to make some snacks to satisfy her craving.


    These past few days, Xi Jiu Er had intentionally kept a distance from Tao Yao. When she found out that her personal servant was actually a spy sent by Feng Qing Cheng, her heart was filled with anger.


    On the surface, other than starting to cool off Tao Yao, there were no other movements. Xi Jiu Er knew that with Feng Qing Cheng''s appearance, Tao Yao was of no use at all.


    However, Xi Jiu Er did not like the thought of people giving him eyes at all times, it was as if she was being watched, with no privacy at all.


    Thus, in the past few days, other than the necessary meals and convenience, Xi Jiu Er basically did not allow her to wait on him.


    Today was Yue Zi''s last day, so Xi Jiu Er specially picked something that he normally could not eat. He had Tao Yao go to the kitchen to make it, knowing that something like that would happen in the end.


    Xi Jiu Er happily used the last piece of dessert. After burping in satisfaction, she was prepared to lie down and rest at the same time. At the same time, she was also in a dilemma as to whether or not she should lay out her cards with Feng Qing Cheng.


    After his four limbs and a hundred of bones were burned by the pain, and his entire body seemed to have been pressed into a raging inferno, Xi Jiu Er finally couldn''t hold back the pain that he was feeling anymore and rolled on the bed.


    Tao Yao who had asked the question immediately saw Xi Jiu Er rolling on the bed in pain. He went forward to check his pulse, and clearly felt a wave of True Qi counterattacking his entire body.


    This kind of chaotic pulse, without even needing to think deeply to know that it was definitely due to poison or that his cultivation had gone berserk. However, Xi Jiu Er had carried it around the entire month in bed, so it was absolutely impossible for her Qi to go berserk.


    After coming to this conclusion, Tao Yao immediately went forward to seal a few important acupuncture points on Xi Jiu Er''s body, turned around, and ran out of the room.


    He ran down the stairs while panting heavily, yet he did not see Feng Qing Cheng around. He was well aware that Xi Jiu Er could not hold on much longer, and hurriedly ran to Mu Qiu Shui''s side room.


    "Knock knock knock," Tao Yao knocked on the door of Mu Qiu Shui''s room again. It had been a long time since he had seen anyone answer him, and he was extremely anxious, yet he could not get a response from the people inside.


    Therefore, Tao Yao clenched his teeth and pushed open the door to Mu Qiu Shui''s room with all his might.


    Tao Yao''s ears suddenly flushed red, she immediately turned when she saw his embarrassed look, covering his face and shouted anxiously: "Young Noble, Imperial Concubine seems to have been poisoned, go and take a look!"


    "Poisoned?" Mu Qiu Shui cried out in alarm, and immediately put all of his clothes on himself in a flurry, hung them crookedly on his body, then turned and left the room.


    Tao Yao shyly looked through the gaps between his fingers and saw that Mu Qiu Shui was already fully dressed, so he quickly followed.


    The two of them rushed to the room and saw that Xi Jiu Er had fainted from the pain.


    Mu Qiu Shui immediately rushed forward to hug her, and extended his hand to turn her face. Seeing that her face was covered in the poison, he could only see that her face was filled with a black aura.


    Mu Qiu Shui immediately recuperated his luck and broke through Tao Yao''s closed acupoints, then immediately went to bed to help Xi Jiu Er recuperate. Her entire inner qi forced the poison out of Xi Jiu Er''s body.


    Xi Jiu Er was tormented by the two streams of Innate Qi in her body to the point of being in excruciating pain.


    "Jiu Er, hold on." Mu Qiu Shui encouraged Xi Jiu Er with his luck as he knew that this was the key to detoxifying himself. If Xi Jiu Er could not survive this, then everything would be wasted.


    Mu Qiu Shui didn''t know what kind of poison it was, but just by looking at how tyrannical it was, he could guess that it wasn''t some low level poison.


    "Hurry up and get your master, this poison ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui had not finished speaking when he was bounced back by the true qi that was rampaging through his body. He spat out a mouthful of blood.


    Seeing this, Tao Yao did not dare to stay any longer, and immediately rushed out.


    This time, they quickly found Feng Qing Cheng who was reading a book in the room. Before Tao Yao could clear up everything, he saw Feng Qing Cheng run out.


    When Feng Qing Cheng rushed over, it was as if Xi Jiu Er was still unconscious and Mu Qiu Shui had also fainted. Feng Qing Cheng led Mu Qiu Shui back to his room in disgust and gave her another bottle of internal injury medicine, allowing Tao Yao to give it to her.


    When Feng Qing Cheng got lucky, he discovered that the poison in Xi Jiu Er''s body was very familiar, but when she tried to detoxify the poison, she was surprised to find out that the poison was actually specially concocted by herself for her own personal bodyguards to use.


    If the poison wasn''t stolen by someone else for Xi Jiu Er, then the person who poisoned him was one of the guards.


    After two hours of detoxifying himself, Xi Jiu Er finally escaped from the danger in his life. Feng Qing Cheng properly arranged for the Xi Jiu Er who was still unconscious, then turned around and walked out in large strides.


    After gently closing the door, Feng Qing Cheng''s face turned sinister as he called out into the air, "Yao."


    A figure immediately dashed out from the darkness. After that figure flashed out, he immediately knelt on the ground and asked, "Master, what can I do for you?"


    "To see whose poison has disappeared."


    "Poison?"


    "Is there a problem?"


    "I don''t dare, this subordinate will go immediately."


    The sound of the wind rustling in the bamboo forest behind him continued to fall into silence.


    The matter was quickly investigated. The one who tried to poison Xi Jiu Er was none other than the iron body servant that served Xi Jiu Er before, Wan Yun.


    When Xi Jiu Er first saw Wan Yun in the bamboo house, she vaguely felt that this woman was somewhat dangerous, which was why she arranged for her to work in the furthest kitchen.


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless.


    Feng Qing Cheng specifically made Tao Yao bring him to Xi Jiu Er''s room. He just wanted Xi Jiu Er to see how much he cared about her.


    Feng Qing Cheng helped Xi Jiu Er sit on the bed, and looked coldly at the Wan Yun who was brought in by Tao Yao. His eyes were filled with disgust.


    "Speak, why did you poison it?" Feng Qing Cheng gently caressed Xi Jiu Er''s white and tender cheeks as she spat out a few cold words. It was clear that she was questioning Wan Yun, who was kneeling on the ground.

 C466

    Wan Yun was delusional enough to think of using her pure and innocent face to pretend that she didn''t know anything.


    "I don''t know what your majesty means, but your Servant has never poisoned anyone!"


    Her soft and charming voice caused everyone present to unconsciously feel a sense of disgust. If they did not have sufficient evidence, how would they have pulled her over to interrogate her? They actually fooled His Majesty recklessly, as all of the servants and maids present silently despised Wan Yun in their hearts.


    Meanwhile, the person in question pretended not to know anything. His bright eyes were wide open, and the water rippled like a pair of clearest mountain springs.


    After Feng Qing Cheng heard, he was enraged, "Do you still want to argue now that things have progressed to this point? "Yao."


    A figure flashed across the bed, and a moment later, a "man" whose entire body was wrapped in black cloth was holding onto a youth dressed in plain clothes. Everyone looked carefully, and saw that it was the teenager bodyguard that often followed beside Feng Qing Cheng.


    The black-clothed man threw the youth onto the ground and retreated. The youth was smashed until his entire body was in pain, but he was afraid of Feng Qing Cheng. He knelt down while baring his teeth, "Your subordinate greets Your Majesty."


    Feng Qing Cheng coldly snorted, "Do you know the reason we called you here?"


    The young guard knelt on the ground and trembled when he heard the voice. His voice also contained a hint of fear. "Subordinate knows."


    "Speak."


    The young man kowtowed heavily on the ground, his tone filled with regret and fear, he continued: "Your Majesty, we have been familiar with the matter of the Imperial Concubine''s poisoning since long ago. This poison, this poison is mine!"


    "Oh? So it was you who wanted to poison your imperial concubine? "


    Zhuge''s ice-cold voice, along with the cold winter snow, made all the palace attendants and maids shudder.


    The youth trembled as he kowtowed towards Feng Qing Cheng with all his might, continuously admitting his wrongs, "It was this subordinate''s fault. I beg that Your Majesty grant this subordinate death and forgive Yun''er."


    The youth was kowtowing nonstop to the side, when Wan Yun suddenly let out a scream. She threw herself forward, tore at him with all her might, scratched and grabbed at the young guard, and angrily roared, "I told you not to speak, you don''t admit your wrongs, nobody can do anything to us. You don''t have anything, pretend to be my Wan Yun''s brother."


    The youth kneeled on the ground. No matter how Wan Yun cursed and kicked him, he didn''t say a single word while lying on the ground. She endured her sister''s punches and kicks.


    Feng Qing Cheng watched coldly from the side, and did not allow anyone to go forward to mediate. I did not dare to go over to mediate, and only obediently stood in place.


    Mu Qiu Shui was not afraid of her, but this girl who inexplicably wanted to poison Xi Jiu Er with her poison, did not have a good impression of her.


    As for that youth, he only wanted to use one sentence to kill himself for his injustice.


    When the young girl finished her last punch, she was finally lying on the ground exhausted. The young man raised his head with a swollen face, and kneeled down with tears in his eyes with great difficulty: "I beg your majesty, please forgive Wan Yun, I''m willing to die for her."


    As Xi Jiu Er watched this youth heavily kowtow on the ground, her heart trembled. She grabbed onto the corner of Feng Qing Cheng''s clothes and tugged for a bit, then moved closer to his ear, "How about we let them go?"


    Feng Qing Cheng looked coldly at the scene in front of him, her voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear her, "No, if we let them go easily, after giving this example, there will definitely be someone who can imitate us. We specially called these servants over tonight to see, just to kill the chickens, I want to see who dares to stir up trouble in the rear palace again."


    Xi Jiu Er also understood what would happen if she set a precedent, but her gaze towards the youth was more or less filled with sympathy.


    Feng Qing Cheng saw that this farce had almost ended, and said coldly to the two people on the ground, "You didn''t discipline your own sister strictly enough, and actually allowed her to poison under our noses, and even used the poison that we bestowed upon you for your protection, to harm our most important people. Tell me, how should we deal with you two?"


    He had followed by Feng Qing Cheng''s side for many years, so he naturally knew of his usual methods of dealing with people. Looking at the overlord, Feng Qing Cheng, who was coldly spitting out a sentence, he knew that his majesty the emperor was already furious. He was not begging for him to be safe, he only hoped that his majesty the emperor would forgive his disappointing little sister.


    "Your Majesty, please forgive this disappointing little sister. Your subordinate is willing to die for her."


    The young man pleaded with all his might, but the young girl beside him did not take him seriously at all. Other than kicking and punching him because she did not have the strength to fight, she glared at him a few times before sitting back down on the ground, staring straight at Feng Qing Cheng.


    Zhuge had also experienced the infatuation of a young girl before, so naturally, he could see the adoration in her eyes. In a flash, he realized it was another moth flying into the fire.


    Unfortunately, he had to bring his own brother with him to the sea of fire.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked coldly at the two people below him, his icy and icy voice emitting a hissing cold air.


    "Chase him out of the palace, and as for his sister, send her to the border, and she will not be allowed to step into my Wind Nation''s territory for the rest of her life."


    When the youth heard this, he immediately kowtowed heavily before dragging a bloody leg out of the room.


    Everyone could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Previously, when the youth had curled up on the ground, he did not discover the hole in the ground, but now, they could see that the place where he had sat was covered in blood. And the culprit behind all of that was the half crazy Wan Yun.


    From her sleeves, she slowly took out a jade hairpin. At one end of the hairpin was an object that had the shape of a sharp dagger carved on it, and at the moment, it was dripping with blood, with bewitching peach blossoms spilt one after another.


    The young girl put the jade hairpin into her mouth, and fresh blood dripped down the corner of her mouth. Blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth and flowed out like a stream from the corner of her lips.


    Wan Yun swallowed all the hairpins in her hands and the Liu Shui in his eyes flowed down along her pure white cheeks, like a clear stream of spring water slowly flowing down a mountain stream. The girl only had her eyes on Feng Qing Cheng''s figure, the man she had loved her entire life, like a lofty god. Now, with the arms of another woman, she watched as she swallowed the jade hairpin without a care in the world.


    The maids standing at the side all screamed out as they watched Wan Yun commit suicide by swallowing the hairpin. Two or three of them hugged each other in fear and trembled in fear.


    It was impossible to say that she wasn''t shocked by the young girl''s extreme behavior. She gave up her life so easily for a man that she couldn''t get her hands on. He really didn''t know if he should say that she was overly stubborn, or that she was undaunted even in death.

 C467

    Feng Qing Cheng looked at this woman who, because of her deep obsession, had turned love into hatred. In his eyes, she was just a despicable, extremely pitiful ant, how could such a person be fit to like him?


    Xi Jiu Er could be considered to be a person who was used to killing, but she had never seen such an extreme woman who did not love herself.


    "Do you want to sleep somewhere else tonight?" Feng Qing Cheng turned around and wrapped Xi Jiu Er in her embrace, her tone gentle.


    This girl died in this room, it was inevitable that she would get into a lot of trouble. Although she was not afraid of ghosts or gods, she would still keep recalling this matter in her heart. Xi Jiu Er felt that it was still better to obediently switch rooms for her own sleep.


    Feng Qing Cheng did not even look at the people and waved his hand, and a servant came out to deal with the corpse in the middle, while the rest tactfully went out.


    Not long after, a tragic voice rang out from outside the house.


    Xi Jiu Er knew that it was because the youth was sad for her sister''s departure.


    That night, Xi Jiu Er slept very late.


    That night, Xi Jiu Er did not refuse Feng Qing Cheng''s consoling as the two of them slept in each other''s embrace.


    On the second day, Feng Qing Cheng brought up the idea of bringing Xi Jiu Er back to the palace, but before Xi Jiu Er could say anything, Mu Qiu Shui, who was at the side, already stood up.


    "Jiu Er wants to follow me back to the Great Beijing Dynasty, how can I follow you back to the palace?" Even though she knew that she had struck a rock with an egg, Mu Qiu Shui still wanted to give it a try.


    Feng Qing Cheng lowered his head and held onto the teacup, he gently brushed away the tea leaves floating on the teacup and without even looking at him, he asked, "She is my Wind Nation, why can''t she follow me back to the palace?"


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed sinisterly, "You have yet to apply for the position, how can you say that you want to marry her?"


    Feng Qing Cheng had a reaction. Holding the teacup, he raised his eyes and asked curiously: "Oh?"


    Mu Qiu Shui saw that the other party had obviously forgotten about this, and fiercely glared at him, "What? Now you can take someone else''s girl home without having to go through the motions? Your Majesty, the emperor of Wind Nation has really made a good start! "


    Feng Qing Cheng did not care about what he said. Instead, he agreed with what he said, he buried his head in thought for a while before saying, "Tomorrow, I will get someone to send a proposal to the Emperor of your Great Beijing Dynasty to marry him. Prince Xian, what do you think?"


    Mu Qiu Shui suffered a loss from Feng Qing Cheng''s words, he stared straight at him in shock, and only after a long while did he react, and pointed at Feng Qing Cheng and scolded, "I say, Feng Qing Cheng, why are you so shameless? You actually have the nerve to do such a thing? Is this how your clan''s Master Zhuge educated you? Don''t you feel ashamed about your Wind Nation? "


    Feng Qing Cheng continued to sip his tea, "Oh? Even if it is, so what? "


    This time, Mu Qiu Shui was so angry that he lost his temper, seeing the myriad of emotions in Feng Qing Cheng''s eyes, he finally admitted defeat helplessly.


    "I don''t want to go back," The one who had come out to oppose Xi Jiu Er was the main character. Xi Jiu Er was furious, they had actually ignored her existence as the main character, which made Xi Jiu Er feel very unhappy.


    "Oh?" He took a strange tone and put down the teacup in his hand with a smile that made it seem like there was a spring in the air.


    Xi Jiu Er felt goosebumps all over her body from his laughter. She inwardly strengthened herself and continued to vent out her displeasure, "I''m not going back to the palace. That kind of place, if I stay there for my entire life, I won''t be able to take it."


    "And if you are allowed to leave the palace on the fifteenth day of the first month?"


    "Eh?"


    "What if I go out with you every year?"


    "Eh."


    "What if when our child turns fifteen, I resign and give up the throne to accompany you in indulging yourself?"


    "This ¡­"


    "And if I am willing to accompany you to the ends of the earth?"


    "In that case ¡­"


    Xi Jiu Er began to seriously consider about Feng Qing Cheng''s connection. Just as she was about to agree, Feng Qing Cheng once again gave two reasons that she could not agree to.


    "Boss bun, I must definitely bring him back. Second Brother Dou Ya''s health is not good, and he must use the best medicinal ingredients at any time to recuperate his body, and only my Wind Nation has the best Scarlet Snow Lotus, and it is only the Imperial Palace that stores it."


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t think that he would suddenly mention his pair of twins who had just gotten their names, and was at a loss for a moment.


    Feng Qing Cheng nodded in satisfaction. His goal was to knock Xi Jiu Er out, "If you don''t want him to be able to return to Great Beijing Dynasty safely, then you can leave with him. However, whether or not you can leave the capital is not guaranteed."


    Xi Jiu Er''s eyes widened as she realized that this fellow''s emotions were threatening him to take her child away, even if she didn''t go back, his life would be in danger.


    Xi Jiu Er was furious, the voice inside her head was shouting that she wanted to teach Zhuge a lesson, thus Xi Jiu Er extended her claws and pounced towards Feng Qing Cheng.


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed as he tightly hugged the furry little beast in his embrace, and smilingly looked at Mu Qiu Shui who was at his side, as if he wanted to bore the opponent to death in his smile.


    Mu Qiu Shui opened his mouth wide, but in the end he did not say anything, he just looked at the harmonious and happy couple.


    Mu Qiu Shui rubbed his nose awkwardly, then tactfully turned and left the room. He already knew the result, and even if he wanted to struggle and crawl back up, he had no choice but to lower his head.


    Xi Jiu Er was scratching and biting at Feng Qing Cheng''s chest like a little kitten. Feng Qing Cheng consoled her with a funny smile, and only after things had settled down to their best did Xi Jiu Er turn her head to look at the empty room. He looked at Feng Qing Cheng and questioned him, "You drove Qiushui away?"


    Feng Qing Cheng pretended to be wronged, "It wasn''t me, she went out by herself."


    Xi Jiu Er glared at him, struggled out of his embrace, and turned to leave.


    "When you return to the palace in the afternoon, ask Tao Yao to pack your luggage for you."


    Feng Qing Cheng had told her about it the moment Xi Jiu Er stepped out of the door. The other party only paused for a moment, then left without looking back.


    At the end of the day, Feng Qing Cheng left Mu Qiu Shui''s group and left with a travel token before he brought Xi Jiu Er and a group of palace maids back to the Imperial Palace.


    Just when Feng Qing Cheng was in a cheerful mood as he entered the palace gates, he saw his personal Chief Eunuch waiting at the gates.


    When Chief Eunuch saw Feng Qing Cheng pulling Xi Jiu Er''s hand and tightening her fingers, she already understood in her heart that the two of them had already broken through the mirror and reunited. She immediately took a few steps forward and bowed to the two of them, then said her intention for coming here?

 C468

    "Your Majesty, the empress passed away yesterday in the palace."


    Chief Eunuch''s voice was filled with uncontrollable grief. The things that came out were like thunder from a clear sky, causing the originally clear sky to instantly fill with dark clouds.


    Feng Qing Cheng rebuked angrily, "Why did you only tell us today why the Empress passed away? Have you checked it out? "


    Feng Qing Cheng pulled Xi Jiu Er and ran towards the palace with a group of servants behind him.


    The Chief Eunuch followed suit and panted, spitting out each word.


    "This servant doesn''t know, but the empress left behind a will in the hall."


    When Feng Qing Cheng rushed to the palace with Xi Jiu Er, they were all white silk at first glance, fluttering in the air, like butterflies dancing in the wind.


    Feng Qing Cheng let go of Xi Jiu Er''s hand while trembling and slowly walked to the bed.


    The woman on the bed had a fair complexion and looked absolutely beautiful. She lay quietly on the bed, as if she was in a deep sleep, and if not for the fact that her lifeless face was pale white like snow, Feng Qing Cheng would have thought that she was still by his side. After so many years, the only person who had truly treated him sincerely had silently disappeared by his side without a trace.


    Feng Qing Cheng suddenly felt tired, that kind of feeling was like a deer that had been running for a long time, suddenly stopped, and could no longer find its way back.


    Xi Jiu Er dismissed all her servants, and sneakily walked in front of Ge Lingfeng, only to realize that his face was already covered in tears.


    This was the first time Xi Jiu Er saw herself crying in front of him. She was like a lost child, watching her best friend leave just like that, feeling helpless.


    Xi Jiu Er hugged him tightly, as if she was comforting a baby. Gentle and patient.


    After a long while, Feng Qing Cheng finally calmed down and read the letter on the table. He read it carefully under the light of the lamp.


    In the blink of an eye, you have already become father and mother. All these years, I have thanked you for taking care of me, and now, I can finally be at ease and leave, there is my true love, Lin Feng, Jiu Er, I wish you two happiness, and I also wish you two happiness.


    "Idiot, idiot." A tear fell from the corner of Feng Qing Cheng''s eye and stained a corner of the letter, staining a certain soft spot.


    Five years later


    "Royal brother! Come down quickly, or else Mother will come again. When Mother tells Father that you are going to be naughty, Father will punish you again! " A handsome boy under the huge pear blossom tree said to the boy on the tree.


    "Bean, don''t hurry me. I saw an especially large and beautiful pear flower on the tree. When I take it off, I''ll put it on Mother." The boy on the tree was also very handsome, but compared to the beans, the two couldn''t be certain. The bean in his mind was pretty, the bun was sunny and pretty, and his body was much stronger than the bean.


    "Ah!" First Prince, why did you go climb trees again? How dangerous! How worried the empress would be later! " Eunuch Huang who was passing by saw Feng Bao Zi on the tree and immediately shouted.


    "Aiya, why is it this Eunuch Huang!" Every time. " Feng Bao Zi silently shook his head as Echo shouted to Eunuch Huang, "Eunuch, I will be back soon, so stop calling me prince!"


    "First Prince!" How could I see it? You have a noble body! Prince, it''s better if you come down quickly! " Eunuch Huang''s ear-piercing screams quickly attracted the attention of the servants who were looking for Feng Bao Zi.


    "Ah!" The princes were actually here! Ah, the First Prince! Why did you go up again! " The startled voices of the maidservants were unbearable to Feng Dou Zi and Feng Bao Zi.


    "Alright, stop being so noisy, my brother is about to come down. If your annoying voices scare my brother and then fall down, then you''re dead for sure!" Feng Dou Zi was extremely furious. Every time the two of them went out, it was difficult for him to get rid of so many servants, but every time it was Eunuch Huang who came to mess things up.


    "Hmph, can you stop talking? This prince said that this prince came up to the tree only to pick a pear flower for Queen Mother. Don''t be so nervous, alright? " Feng Bao Zi was already at a loss for words, every time he did something especially simple, a large group of people would surround him and say a large bunch of nonsense.


    "First Prince, there''s no need to dupe me. You''ve done such a dangerous thing, if the empress knew about it, it would be disastrous. This servant is doing it for the First Prince!" Instead, he stepped forward and stopped Feng Dou Zi, as if he was afraid that Feng Dou Zi would also climb up there.


    "Let go of my brother, Eunuch Huang! You are too impudent!" Seeing Feng Dou Zi being treated like that by Eunuch Huang, Feng Bao Zi''s heart burned with anger, and he shouted at Eunuch Huang.


    "Your servant was not presumptuous ¡­" Before Eunuch Huang could finish his words, a clear voice came from behind him, "Bao''er, hurry up and come down!"


    Feng Bao Zi was stunned, seeing that it was actually his mother, he anxiously climbed down the tree, but he was too anxious. When he got down, because he was too anxious, the tree trunk was too slippery, causing Feng Bao Zi to miss his footing.


    "Bao''er ~"


    "First Prince ~"


    "Big brother ~"


    When the three voices came out, everyone was especially worried. They did not dare to open their eyes, afraid that Feng Bao Zi would fall down miserably.


    opened his eyes and was surprised to discover that Feng Bao Zi did not fall down, but had instead been saved by Mu Qiu Shui. It turned out that Mu Qiu Shui had been watching the two children play this entire time, so the moment Feng Bao Zi fell, he immediately went to catch him.


    When Feng Bao Zi saw that he was one of his own people, he couldn''t help but grin from the bottom of his mouth and secretly called out in delight, "Father Qiu!"


    However, Mu Qiu Shui did not hear them. Although he had asked them to call him Daddy Qiu when he came to visit these two children in the past, they had always been unwilling, and then he had given up. Sigh, what a pity.


    Mu Qiu Shui hung Feng Bao Zi on his neck and smacked Feng Bao Zi''s butt twice as he laughed, "If it weren''t for me, your butt would have been smashed into a meat patty a long time ago!"


    "Mu Qiu Shui, why are you here, why didn''t you say anything!" Xi Jiu Er looked at Mu Qiu Shui''s smiling face and was very happy in his heart. All these years, Feng Qing Cheng had never had the time to accompany Feng Bao Zi and her to play, so Mu Qiu Shui would always have time to visit Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Zi every day.

 C469

    "Why, do I have to get Little Xi Jiu Er''s permission every time I come? "Don''t I have the kind of person who likes to walk through doors?" Mu Qiu Shui stroked her eyebrows while feeling cocky, she shot Xi Jiu Er a coquettish glance.


    "All of you can leave now!" Xi Jiu Er didn''t like it when a large group of people stood behind him when she was chatting with them, so she called all the servants away, especially since he was afraid that they would misunderstand her relationship with Mu Qiu Shui.


    Mu Qiu Shui hugged Feng Dou Zi all the way, making him feel embarrassed. Feng Bao Zi was a little jealous of him because of this, and watched them with interest. In fact, Xi Jiu Er could tell that all the children liked Mu Qiu Shui a lot, and Mu Qiu Shui liked the two children as well.


    When they arrived at the hall, a servant saw that Xi Jiu Er had returned and immediately informed him, "The emperor said to ask the empress to prepare dinner later, and to spend the night here with the empress."


    Xi Jiu Er was very happy. It was rare for the emperor to have the time, if he had the time, he would come to visit me. How could he not be happy?


    Mu Qiu Shui also heard the little girl''s words. Seeing Xi Jiu Er''s happy look, he could not help but feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, and said with a sour heart: "Feng Qing Cheng, he wants to come?"


    Xi Jiu Er did not know what Mu Qiu Shui was feeling right now, but he was speaking the truth. "That''s right, the Emperor has treated me very well, even after working so hard, he did not forget me."


    "Humph!" Mu Qiu Shui snorted, pulling Xi Jiu Er into his embrace, and said tyrannically: "Now, with me by your side, don''t think too much about other men!"


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the two children awkwardly, the good kids did not look at him and the servant wasn''t around either. Otherwise, she would not be able to do anything even if she jumped into the Yellow River to wash! Xi Jiu Er broke free from Mu Qiu Shui''s embrace.


    Mu Qiu Shui was extremely confused. Why was she so cautious against him?


    "Don''t touch my woman!" A penetrating voice came from the door. The moment he heard it, he knew that the Emperor had arrived.


    "Chenqie pays her respects to the Emperor!" Seeing Feng Qing Cheng coming over, Xi Jiu Er was blessed.


    Feng Qing Cheng immediately began to speak with his mouth, his hand still stroking her. Although he was unhappy about the matter of her bringing Mu Qiu Shui into the palace, if Feng Qing Cheng were to question him, Xi Jiu Er would definitely be hurt. If he saw Xi Jiu Er being hurt, Feng Qing Cheng''s heart would be in an even worse state.


    "When did you come here?" "Why didn''t I know?" Feng Qing Cheng glanced at Mu Qiu Shui and mocked.


    "Your Majesty is so elegant. When this bird gets up to rest, it still needs to ask about the rest of the trees. Can we rest here?" "Isn''t it enough as long as you know the tree trunk?" Mu Qiu Shui laughed, the red cloth was extremely enchanting, although he spoke with crooked words, with his elegant young master''s appearance, it was as though he could turn a bad word into a good one.


    "Nonsense, you are too presumptuous, to actually compare the Imperial Palace to a tree, me comparing it to a tree root, and Xi Jiu Er comparing it to a tree trunk? But you are more like a living thing, a bird? You are getting more and more presumptuous! ''Part-time lawless! '' Feng Qing Cheng had always hated him, but now, he actually dared to be so rude in front of him. He was really being too unrestrained towards him, and if he did not speak of it today, he would become lawless in the future.


    "Well, your majesty! Mu Qiu Shui was my best friend. In the past when he came to the Imperial Palace, you didn''t mention about the Emperor who went in and out of the palace, but what''s going on today? I made you so angry. " Seeing that his nose and eyes were filled with fire, Xi Jiu Er immediately came out to adjust his breathing. On one side was a man''s face of admiration, and on the other was his beloved husband, both sides could not be lost.


    "Xi Jiu Er, are you still protecting him? Is he your husband, what am I? Am I the idiot who provides you with accommodation, clothing, food, and a silent love? Xi Jiu Er! Where is your heart? I don''t understand, I really don''t understand! " Feng Qing Cheng almost shouted out loud. It had been so many years, but he had almost never lost his temper and roared at Xi Jiu Er before, and today, Xi Jiu Er was actually speaking up for Mu Qiu Shui. This made Feng Qing Cheng feel like his heart was collapsing.


    "Your Majesty, chenqie has served by your side for so many years. Your Majesty, where Xi Jiu Er''s heart is, your Majesty, is still not clear? The words of the emperor have truly hurt Xi Jiu Er''s heart. Your majesty, the child is already this old, so Xi Jiu Er''s heart has already been hurt by him. Upon hearing Feng Qing Cheng''s words, Xi Jiu Er''s heart started to become tangled. It would be fine if the emperor got angry and he could coax Xi Jiu Er, but today, seeing the emperor''s attitude towards him was out of the question.


    "Interesting, is the emperor arguing with the queen who gave birth to a prince?" Is it going to snow tomorrow? If the emperor doesn''t want the empress anymore, then I won''t be polite, and I won''t suggest taking the little prince away either! " Seeing how angry Feng Qing Cheng was, Mu Qiu Shui had a good impression of her. He really wanted to see the two of them fighting each other to the end, and thus he decided to take back the power of a fisherman. They couldn''t bear to part with their child. Even if they made Xi Jiu Er sad, it was for the sake of his future happiness.


    Looking at Xi Jiu Er''s sad expression, then looking at Mu Qiu Shui''s proud expression, then hearing Mu Qiu Shui''s words and hearing his stress, purposely distinguishing who was who''s child, even the children were shocked by the adults.


    Feng Qing Cheng flung his sleeves and left, not because he was angry but because he did not want to take care of Xi Jiu Er, but because he had nothing to say to Xi Jiu Er for his part-time job, and so he had no choice but to do it to her.


    Facing Feng Qing Cheng''s retreating figure, Xi Jiu Er felt as if her heart had been cut by a knife. It was so painful, so excruciating that it was obvious.


    "Queen Mother!" What''s wrong with royal father? Are you angry? " His youngest son, Feng Dou Zi, had always been a very considerate person.


    "It''s nothing, Little Bean. Did your mother accidentally quarrel with your father ¡­" Mu Qiu Shui carried Feng Dou Zi, purposely teasing him, but before he could finish, Xi Jiu Er had said forcefully, and there was even a trace of anger in her words, "Big brother Mu Qiu Shui, don''t talk to the child like that, the child is still young, don''t let them know about these things. Big brother Mu Qiu Shui, you should go back and rest first! It''s already late, so I won''t be keeping you for dinner today. "


    Xi Jiu Er just felt uncomfortable inside, but Mu Qiu Shui did not say much. Looking at Feng Dou Zi''s innocent face, he said to him in a warm voice, "Father Qiu has returned to eat, can I come see the beans again tomorrow?"

 C470

    Beans obediently nodded and said, "Ok!"


    Mu Qiu Shui let go of Feng Dou Zi, then went out the door and flew out. It was unknown that a figure had come flying over to attack him, which Mu Qiu Shui dodged, but the flying palm still brushed against the corner of his bright red clothes. Mu Qiu Shui did not care, since he had been attacked.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, I never thought that you would be so petty, no wonder you had quarreled with Xi Jiu Er, you don''t have the slightest manliness." It was not easy to separate from Feng Qing Cheng with much effort, and just by saying those words, he was able to adjust the situation.


    "Mu Qiu Shui, if you are doing this, don''t blame me for being heartless. Originally, I was already being benevolent and virtuous, but now, you have gone even further, and took advantage of my absence to go to my empress palace. In the future, I will definitely not allow you to be presumptuous!" Feng Qing Cheng said as he looked at Mu Qiu Shui''s miserable and strenuous appearance. He did not expect that this Mu Qiu Shui had improved quite a bit, and the past five years had not been in vain.


    "Hmph, what''s so special about entering the hall? She said that she is my child''s mother, so I can''t go look for her and see the child? Feng Qing Cheng, you''re really too naive. " Mu Qiu Shui was speechless facing Feng Qing Cheng''s actions. The child not only has his own, but also his own.


    "Mu Qiu Shui, do you really have to be so willful? The child is yours, but I haven''t mistreated him in the past five years. Don''t think that I don''t know about you letting them call you Father Qiu in private. I just don''t want to say it. Feng Qing Cheng was very annoyed by Mu Qiu Shui''s unfair attitude towards him.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, I''ll tell you the truth, I brought the child with me. Don''t worry, I will get Xi Jiu Er too!" Seeing him like that, Mu Qiu Shui spoke his mind.


    If he took the child away, Xi Jiu Er would definitely feel very sad to death. He retracted his emotions and firmly said to him, "You can''t take the child away, and you can''t touch Xi Jiu Er either!"


    Mu Qiu Shui sat in the carriage that had just entered the palace, thinking that he had stayed in the Wind Nation for too long, it was time for him to return to his own country. He couldn''t bear to part from his son. He suddenly had the thought of sneaking his son away, but then he thought that if he were to silently take Little Dou away from Shao''er like this, Little Yu would definitely go crazy. After all, mother and son were related by blood, and Little had always thought of them as her and the Emperor''s sons.


    Moreover, the Emperor didn''t allow him to take his son away, because he was afraid that if Shao''er knew that this son wasn''t his, Shao''er wouldn''t be able to accept it. didn''t even dare imagine how Xiao Dou would face up to this cruel reality, and how Xiao Dou would be treated if she were to reveal her identity as his son.


    Furthermore, Little Dou was now the direct son of the Emperor, and the Emperor had also said that he didn''t mind Little Dou''s ancestry. The palace had always been a place for the children, and Dou''er was his only hope. As he thought of this, Mu Qiu Shui painfully struggled in his heart. He wanted to bring his son away, but he couldn''t disobey the emperor''s orders.


    After thinking about it and sighing for a while, he finally gave up on the idea of taking his son away. At this moment, the carriage came to a halt and the voice of the driver could be heard, "Your Royal Highness, we have arrived."


    This was the first time, so Mu Qiu Shui felt that the path to the palace was so short that even he himself was a little afraid of facing it.


    Mu Qiu Shui was annoyed in his heart, he sighed, and said indifferently: "En." He got off the carriage and walked towards the empress''s chambers. He was in a hurry, so he didn''t notice the road ahead and didn''t notice anyone. He bumped into a gentle, refined, and delicate looking girl dressed in plain clothes.


    Just as Shu Xin was thinking about why the Emperor had recruited her into the palace, she wasn''t paying attention to the person in front of her. Shu Xin cried out in shock as she was knocked to the ground.


    Seeing that he had bumped into someone, Mu Qiu Shui immediately walked forward to help her up, and said worriedly: "Miss, I am truly sorry, I just left in a hurry, did you run into me? "


    Shu Xin raised her head and looked at Mu Qiu Shui with her bright and beautiful eyes, not willing to look away anymore. She let Mu Qiu Shui help her stand up and replied timidly with her head lowered, "I''m fine." On the other hand, Young Master, is there anything wrong? "


    "I''m fine. I bumped into a girl. I''m really sorry." Mu Qiu Shui shook his head and said.


    Shu Xin shook her head to show that she did not mind, then looked at Mu Qiu Shui with her bright and smiling eyes, and said: "Don''t worry, young master is so unfamiliar, my name is Shu Xin, I am the daughter of the Prime Minister, who might this young master be? Was he in a hurry to meet someone? "


    Even though Mu Qiu Shui''s mood was not very good, he was still able to force out a smile and said: "Greetings, Miss Shu, this one is Mu Qiu Shui. I do not mean to offend you, please forgive me. I was just going to say goodbye to the queen. "


    Feeling relieved, her heart skipped a beat as she asked doubtfully, "Why did Young Master Qiu bid farewell to the empress? Is it going somewhere? "


    "Mhmm, I''m leaving tomorrow, so I came to bid farewell to the empress." Mu Qiu Shui''s modest and polite appearance was reflected in her comfortable heart.


    "Where is the young master going?" Shu Xin asked him nervously.


    Mu Qiu Shui frowned: "I''m going to see the Queen. It''s good as long as Miss Shu is fine, I''ll be taking my leave first." After he finished speaking, he hurriedly walked toward Xi Jiu Er''s chambers, not paying attention to the change in his heart.


    Mu Qiu Shui went to Xi Jiu Er''s room. Seeing that she wasn''t in her room, he furrowed his brows and thought about where Shao''er had gone to.


    Coincidentally, a servant girl saw Mu Qiu Shui and was about to report to him in the backyard, but Mu Qiu Shui stopped her, "There''s no need to report. Just tell me where the Queen is, and I''ll go find her myself."


    The servant girl looked at Mu Qiu Shui with some difficulty and said, "This ¡­"


    Mu Qiu Shui said impatiently, "This king has only come to bid farewell to the empress, there is no other reason. It won''t affect you in any way, so you just rest assured. "


    The servant hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Alright, the empress and the princes are all in the backyard. Prince, please follow me." He nodded and let the servant lead him to the backyard.


    When Mu Qiu Shui arrived at the backyard, he saw that Xi Jiu Er was dressed in light colored palace attire, and there was not a trace of elegance missing from within the splendor. At this moment, she was sitting on a stone chair, watching Dou Dou and Steamed Bun play with each other with a smile on her face. The warm and harmonious scene made Mu Qiu Shui feel a little jealous and relieved.

 C471

    Perhaps he was wrong, because it would be better if Little Dou stayed in the palace. Moreover, Shao''er also doted on him, and the Emperor didn''t mind his background. It seemed like treating him like this was also good. He sighed and gave up on the idea of taking his son away. Xi Jiu Er raised her head and saw Mu Qiu Shui dressed in a red robe standing not far away, looking lonely. She was stunned for a moment. She was confused as to why he had such a desolate look in her eyes, but she didn''t want to say anything. Then, she brought a smile on her face and asked: "Mu Qiu Shui, why are you here?"


    Mu Qiu Shui withdrew his lonely gaze, and laughed: "It''s fine, I''ve stayed here for too long, I''ve missed my homeland a little. Just think about it, it''s about time I return home. So, didn''t I come here to say goodbye? "


    Xi Jiu Er asked in surprise, "Return? Are you really leaving? "


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head helplessly, "Yes, fallen leaves must return to their roots. All good things must come to an end.


    At this time, Dou Dou ran over and hugged Mu Qiu Shui''s legs, feeling an innate intimacy with Mu Qiu Shui. Only Mu Qiu Shui knew that this was an unshakeable love between father and son.


    He raised his head and asked Mu Qiu Shui naively: "Uncle, are you really going to leave? Where are you going? "


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head, and patted Dou Dou''s head: "That''s right, uncle is going back to his own country, Dou Dou will be good in the future, listen to mother."


    Little Dou pouted and nodded in disappointment, "But what can I do about it? Dou Dou doesn''t want uncle to leave. "


    "Little Dou has a father, a mother loves, and a big sister is playing with you. Uncle is not from Wind Nation, and he cannot stay in Wind Nation forever. " Mu Qiu Shui thought, was this the nature of father and son? Little Dou was also reluctant to part with him, just like how he was reluctant to part with Little Dou.


    "Then you have to come back and take me out to play." Dou Dou could only say with a bit of grievance.


    In fact, Mu Qiu Shui treated him really well. She would bring him something nice to eat, something fun to play with and even take him out to play. She really didn''t want Mu Qiu Shui to leave.


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed helplessly: "Okay, when I have time in the future, I will definitely bring Dou Dou out to play and buy delicious food for Xiao Dou to eat. We will be like before, okay?"


    Without waiting for Dou Dou to speak, Steamed Bun ran over and shook Mu Qiu Shui''s hands. He said in a spoiled manner, "I want it too, I want it too."


    Mu Qiu Shui patted Steamed Bun''s head and said, "Alright, alright, alright. I have beans and buns."


    Xi Jiu Er frowned, she looked at the two cute kids and couldn''t help but laugh. or looked towards Mu Qiu Shui and said: "Why are you really leaving? Look, Steamed Bun and Little Dou aren''t willing to part with you. "


    When Xi Jiu Er asked this question, Mu Qiu Shui was afraid that he would be soft-hearted, so he casually came up with a reason: "That''s right, I have to go back."


    How could Mu Qiu Shui know the truth behind his departure? After all, the emperor was a man, and his own son was someone else''s flesh and blood. However, the Emperor was still the ruler of a nation. How could he allow Dou Dou''s father to stay by his side and become a threat?


    In order to let Xi Jiu Er and her mother live their lives in peace, Mu Qiu Shui had to leave no matter what.


    Xi Jiu Er nodded helplessly, and sighed: "Alright. When are you leaving? I''ll walk you out. "


    "There''s no need to send me off tomorrow. Steamed Bun and Little Dou still need mother''s care. "Besides, I don''t want the Emperor to misunderstand anything, or invite criticism from the imperial harem." Mu Qiu Shui said.


    Xi Jiu Er thought that Mu Qiu Shui''s words were reasonable, so she nodded and said: "Alright. Be careful on the way. "


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded his head and said: "En, then I will go back first. I will go back and prepare."


    "Yes, yes." Xi Jiu Er replied. Mu Qiu Shui unwillingly patted Dou Dou''s head and said: "I''ll be going first, you must behave yourself, okay?"


    Dou Dou nodded with tears in her eyes. "I know. You must come back in the future."


    Mu Qiu Shui nodded and turned to leave. He didn''t want them to see the tears and reluctance in the corners of his eyes.


    As for Shu Xin, she watched Mu Qiu Shui''s fading back, standing in the gentle breeze for a long time. Only after a while did he realize that he had wasted too much time. Afraid that the Emperor would scold him, he hurriedly rushed to meet the Emperor.


    After returning to the Prime Minister''s Estate, his heart was filled with comfort and uneasiness all day. His mind was completely filled with Mu Qiu Shui''s figure and that calm smile of his.


    On this day, the Grandmother called her over. She was in a daze while walking, so much so that she bumped into Prime Minister Shu who was about to go to the study. Shu Xin lost her balance and was about to fall backwards, but luckily the Prime Minister''s guard held her back in time.


    Prime Minister Shu looked at Shu Xin absent-mindedly, and asked Shu Xin with a worried expression, "Xin Er, what''s wrong with you today? Why was he so distracted after returning from a trip to the palace? What happened in the palace? Or did the Emperor tell you something? "


    Seeing that he had bumped into his father, Shu Xin was slightly taken aback. Hearing his father''s words, Mu Qiu Shui''s figure flashed past in his mind, his face immediately flushed red, and he lowered his head, stuttering: "Ah ¡­ Father... I... "I''m fine."


    It was rare for the prime minister to see his daughter in such a state. Feeling that it was rather strange, he asked curiously, "Is that so?"


    Shu Xin nodded, she did not dare to tell him the truth, and anxiously said: "Father, Grandmother just called me a moment ago, I have matters to attend to, so I will be leaving first."


    The Prime Minister nodded in agreement. In his heart, he was still wondering why his daughter had been distracted ever since she came back. Shu Xin saw her father nod his head and quickly went to Grandmother Tower. He was afraid that his father would discover something.


    Shu Xin didn''t know why, but ever since she was struck by Mu Qiu Shui, even her own heart had been smashed by him. His figure seemed to be possessed by an enchantment that appeared frequently in his mind, and he couldn''t get rid of it.


    However, Shu Xin sighed. He had already left for a few days, it seemed like he wouldn''t be coming back. But she had fallen for the Mu Qiu Shui who was dressed in red and had a very nice smile on his face. From the looks of it, he seemed to be on good terms with the empress. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have bid her farewell that day. Thinking up to here, Shu Xin''s eyes dimmed. She knew that there was no conclusion between them, so she sighed and shook her head helplessly. She felt that it was better not to think about anything further.


    "Relax? "Relax?" Grandmother frowned, and called him Shu Xin with suspicion.


    Shu Xin froze for a moment, then answered blankly: "Ah? Grandmother. "


    Grandmother asked her worriedly, "Are you alright? "You can''t be me when I ask you, and you keep shaking your head and sighing."


    Shu Xin froze for a moment, then said embarrassedly: "Grandmother, I''m sorry. Just as Shu Xin was thinking about this, she didn''t hear it. "


    Grandmother heaved a sigh of relief and asked her: "What are you thinking, to be able to cause your soul to wander like this?"


    Shu Xin''s face slightly blushed as she said, "Grandmother, no... "Nothing."


    "Nothing? Since it''s nothing, then why is your face red? " Grandmother asked jokingly.

 C472

    "I ¡­" She wanted to say something but hesitated.


    "Child, Grandmother also came here at your age. If you have anything to say, just say it." Grandmother said with a slightly dissatisfied tone.


    Shu Xin took a deep breath and said seriously to Grandmother, "Ancestor ¡­ Grandmother, I think I like a person. " After saying that, his face turned red.


    Grandmother was startled for a moment, then laughed: "So my soul was not at rest these past few days, I was absent-minded because I was thinking about others."


    Shu Xin lowered her head and protested softly, "Grandmother, I don''t have any."


    "My daughter has someone she likes in her family. What is there to be ashamed about? "You''re the daughter of the current Prime Minister. Who else can you marry besides the Emperor who says no?" Grandmother said with a smile.


    Shu Xin muttered to herself, "But Grandmother, Xin''er had only seen him once in the palace. Moreover, he has already left the Wind Nation, what is there to say about marrying or not marrying?"


    Grandmother looked at Shu Xin''s disappointed little face, and thought, "Someone who is fated to be with you, with just one look, is destined to die." As long as you wish it, it is not a problem at all for you to request for an edict to be married to a king of another country. "


    In the end, Mu Qiu Shui had left the Wind Nation, how could he marry a girl like Shu Xin who only wanted to marry him. As he looked at the garden, he realized that Shu Xin had a deep emotional base, but he was not confident about that at all. Mu Qiu Shui had the same thoughts to himself.


    When Mu Qiu Shui left the Wind Nation, the emperor finally calmed down. As long as Xi Jiu Er was by his side and her children were by his side, it was enough.


    However, that girl Shu Xin wanted to marry Mu Qiu Shui very much, but she didn''t know where Mu Qiu Shui came from, and didn''t know who he was, so she sent people to the palace to investigate.


    Previously, he had always thought that only the Emperor would take notice of the Emperor. After thinking about it, if the Emperor did not love the Empress, then as the Prime Minister''s daughter, the position now would definitely be his. Although he only had a good impression of the Emperor, he would definitely fall in love with Mu Qiu Shui at first sight, and that too at the first sight of the Emperor.


    "Miss, Miss, Servant has investigated." "The servant girl rushed into Shu Xin''s room and reported the moment she saw him." That Mu Qiu Shui is the prince of the Daxing, and has his own feelings for the empress, but she is still our empress after all. He can''t do anything about it, but he has already returned to the Daxing, and heard from the Servant in the empress''s palace that he would often go to the palace to play with the little prince. He treats Prince Feng Xiaozhu very well. "


    After listening to the maid''s words, Shu Xin immediately became alert. Since he''s coming back, then I''ll go wait at the empress''s place every day. Since he likes the prince, then I''ll treat him well.


    "Prepare myself, I want to enter the palace." Shu Xin ordered her servant girl.


    In the past few days, aside from coming to the palace to play with the little prince whenever she had the time, she had also come across Mu Qiu Shui who had come to visit the little prince. She was very happy to be able to see Mu Qiu Shui at such a close distance, but she wasn''t satisfied because she wanted to marry him, but she didn''t know how to do so.


    "heart aunt, you''re here?" The little princes who were playing with Mu Qiu Shui at the side saw the happiness in Mu Qiu Shui''s eyes.


    "This humble girl pays her respects to the princes." A hearty salute.


    The two young princes obediently replied, "heart aunt, please rise." Xiao Dou asked: "Since heart aunt is here, why don''t you come and play with us? I have long seen the heart aunt. "


    He never thought that this child would already have seen him. At that time, he was looking at Mu Qiu Shui with rapt attention.


    "heart aunt, what kind of delicious food did you bring us this time?" Feng Bao Zi mischievously walked towards the Shu Xin maid, tiptoeing to look at the basket in the servant girl''s hands, only to see that Feng Xiaozhu was not obsessed with this matter, and had followed Feng Bao Zi to release the basket. What was so new about it?


    "What''s heart aunt doing?" Feng Sidou held a piece of monkey dough and asked about Shu Xin''s condition.


    heart aunt guessed that you guys would also like it, so I brought it here for you. You are Great Sage Sun Wukong, a legendary figure, extremely handsome. Shu Xin said in a coaxing tone.


    "What about me, heart aunt?" Feng Bao Zi heard from his heart that Feng Xiao Dou''s man was very handsome, and she must be very handsome too.


    Shu Xin looked at Feng Bao Zi, "That one of yours is Erlang Shen, the god in the sky.


    The two children were amused.


    Prince Xian was very happy to see this. After all, it was a good thing to have someone treat their son well.


    "You kids, what''s wrong? Won''t you say thank you if you take the gift? Next time I will have heart aunt not bring you gifts. " Prince Xian made fun of the two children.


    The two children were still not understanding, and said in unison: "heart aunt is great, she won''t not give us any presents, every time heart aunt comes to visit us, she will bring a gift."


    Mu Qiu Shui had also noticed that this Shu Xin treated the two children very well, especially Xiao Dou. why did she do this? Mu Qiu Shui was very confused.


    "Shu Xinya, these two children are so rude. Next time you come, you better not bring any gifts for them. Do you understand?" Mu Qiu Shui faked.


    Shu Xin also let him have his way.


    "Understood, Prince Xian." Shu Xin smiled.


    The two children hurriedly hugged Shu Xin''s thighs as they begged for mercy.


    "heart aunt, I''m sorry, we will be very polite in the future. Thank you heart aunt for bringing us a present." Actually, these two children were quite kind-hearted. After all, they were twins.


    Shu Xin smiled, stroking both of their hair as she dotingly said, "You guys are really obedient."


    The two children said together, "I like the heart aunt the most."


    This was heard by the empress who had just come to visit the child from the Hall of Pepper.


    "Since you guys like heart aunt this much, let''s just let it be your godmother. Since heart aunt doesn''t have any children, then let''s train for a while and prepare for the future." The Queen laughed.


    "Everyone!" Everyone immediately kneeled down and saluted when they saw the empress. "Greetings, Imperial Mother." "Two children." "Greetings, esteemed empress." Comfortable Heart, Mu Qiu Shui and the servant girl.


    "All of you, rise!" The empress beckoned with a wave of her hand. How about it? Relax? The children like you. Just be their godmother. "


    Shu Xin smiled awkwardly.


    "Is the empress joking?" You don''t have the good fortune to be the Little Prince''s mother, do you? "


    The two children immediately understood. "Mother, heart aunt will be our mother from now on." "Without waiting for Shu Xin to agree, he called the two children over." "Qian Niang, Qian Niang, when you come to the palace in the future, remember to bring us more gifts to coax your baby."


    "Alright, it''s decided then. Let''s hand over the contract tomorrow." The queen announced solemnly.

 C473

    The next day.


    "Hello, mother." The two children cried out in unison.


    "It''s a gift." The eunuch announced.


    Shu Xin took out two jade pendants from her sleeve and talked about the origins of these two pendants.


    Originally, there was one that shouldn''t belong to me and belonged to my sister. I was twins with her, but she died soon after she was born, so Mom was very sad. Mom followed my sister and it was my dad who told me to give the pendant to you two children. As he spoke, his eyes were filled with tears.


    The children each received a jade pendant.


    "Thank you, mother. We will grow up quickly and listen to what you have to say. We will not anger royal father, mother empress, mother and uncle Mu Qiu Shui." The two children were very sensible.


    Mu Qiu Shui took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Shu Xin.


    "Wipe your tears, why are you crying in such a joyous day? "It''s ugly. It was originally ugly, but now that I''m crying, it''s even uglier." Mu Qiu Shui joked.


    He didn''t expect that the two children would actually work together to scold Mu Qiu Shui: "Uncle Mu Qiu Shui, you''re not allowed to bully our mother. Mother Qian is the second prettiest woman in the world, you can only like her, you can''t hate her."


    Xi Jiu Er laughed and asked, "Then who is the most beautiful woman in the world?"


    "Our Queen Mother, of course." After saying that, the two children threw themselves into Xi Jiu Er''s embrace.


    Shu Xin proudly raised her head, and looked at Mu Qiu Shui smugly.


    "Did you hear that? You can''t hate me, you can only like me, you can''t bully me, I''m someone with the backing of the little prince. " He said happily.


    Xi Jiu Er laughed as she saw the two of them acting in such a romantic manner, "Forgive me for doing this, you two like each other, then let''s get married. Mu Qiu Shui, since you like my two sons this much, you will be their godfather if you marry them."


    Unexpectedly, just as he said that, Feng Qing Cheng who was in the middle of his speech heard it.


    Before he could enter, he already started speaking: "Since it''s like this, an order has been passed down, Daxing wants to marry the Prime Minister''s daughter to ease the heart of the Daxing."


    Xi Jiu Er looked at Feng Qing Cheng happily and laughed. She was initially joking, but who would have thought that this man would hear it.


    Mu Qiu Shui was about to reject, but before he could say anything, Feng Qing Cheng had already spoken first.


    "You don''t need to refuse, you can''t refuse me, because Xuan Yuan Zhu Ge told me to find a wife for you in our country, and my orders were his, so accept the decree. Prince Mu Qiu Shui, daughter of the Prime Minister, is good." Feng Qing Cheng laughed loudly.


    After hearing this, Shu Xin thought she was dreaming. She was especially happy.


    "Alright, then may the emperor make the decision to help Mu Qiu Shui get married to Shu Xin." After all, Mu Qiu Shui was the Prince Xian of the Daxing and Shu Xin was the Prime Minister''s daughter.


    "It''s up to the emperor, the empress." He knelt down respectfully and saluted.


    Feng Qing Cheng was especially happy, because she could finally get her love rival to marry. She no longer needed to pester the woman she loved everyday.


    "Shu Xin, don''t worry, I will definitely marry you off, and won''t embarrass the Prime Minister, so I will use the honor of a princess of Wind Nation to marry you out, and make you Princess Xin Xin, as well as bestow upon the princess'' house, and marry you off at the princess'' mansion the next day."


    Shuxin was happy and excited. She could marry him if she wanted to, but at least she got what she wanted.


    "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Shu Xin laughed so hard that her teeth could no longer be seen.


    "As you wish, I shall choose a few days to get married." The tyrannical Emperor announced.


    One held''s hand while the other one held comfortably.


    "I wish that godmother will have a long, peaceful life, give birth to your son early, and give us a little sister." The two children smiled evilly.


    But no one knew what Mu Qiu Shui was thinking. Although they had a good impression of her, that was only because she treated her children well, that was all. Sooner or later, she would be ordered to marry, and now, she would be marrying someone who had a good impression of her, so she would barely pass away. After all, Xi Jiu Er loved Feng Qing Cheng, and he might never have the chance to marry her again, if she married in the Wind Nation, he could stay there and protect her for the rest of his life.


    "Two little mischievous fellows." Mu Qiu Shui carried one child in each hand, one in the left and one in the right.


    "You''re a big naughty one, hee hee ¡­" The two children intimately hugged Mu Qiu Shui''s neck, laughed and played with Mu Qiu Shui, pinched his nose, and even kissed his forehead.


    Seeing this, Xi Jiu Er immediately stopped her: "Bun, Dou''er, don''t be rude, why aren''t you coming down?"


    Feng Xiaobie, who was smiling a moment ago, immediately slid down from Mu Qiu Shui''s body to the ground the moment he saw Xi Jiu Er''s eyes. He looked at his mother innocently.


    Seeing that his little brother had climbed down, Feng Bao Zi giggled as he grabbed Mu Qiu Shui''s nose and slid down to the ground like a dog.


    "The empress is too serious. The two princes are extremely intelligent, and it''s rare for them to be so compatible with This King. This King is very pleased." Mu Qiu Shui said slowly as he straightened his clothes, and his eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of mist that could not be seen clearly when he looked at Xi Jiu Er.


    Feng Qing Cheng snorted from his nose, his smile a little stiff, Xi Jiu Er stared at the two children with concern, his gaze not stopping on Mu Qiu Shui''s face.


    Mu Qiu Shui''s expression became even more unfathomable. Shu Xin stole a glance at him, then shyly lowered her head and twisted her fingers, she did not feel the sudden awkward atmosphere in the hall.


    "I''m tired. The two of you can leave now." Feng Qing Cheng pulled Feng Dou, Xi Jiu Er held Feng Bao Zi''s hand, and they slowly disappeared from the rear hall. Feng Bao Zi did not forget to turn his head and make a face at Mu Qiu Shui and Shu Xin, Shu Xin could not help but burst out laughing, then suddenly remembered that she and him were the only two people left in the hall, and immediately hid her smile, causing her to become nervous, her heart started beating extremely fast, as though she wanted to look at him but did not dare to.


    At this time, Mu Qiu Shui''s ink-black eyes were staring straight at the gradually disappearing gold-edged red dress, flickering about. Only until they could no longer be seen did they slightly narrow their eyes, and let out a silent sigh.


    Forget it, even if we can''t get along, it''s good to be able to watch over you from time to time, even if we can''t get along, but thinking this way, suddenly realizing that he was going to marry a woman he didn''t like, an indescribable anger arose within him, and the good feeling he had for her instantly vanished like smoke in thin air!


    He disdainfully shot a glance at the seemingly submissive woman. Her looks were a bit lacking, but she was still far from Xi Jiu Er, who didn''t have Xi Jiu Er''s elegant temperament like Luo Shen. Sigh, there was a high chance that her life wasn''t going to go well for her.


    Although Shu Xin did not dare to look directly at him, she could feel that he was looking at her and felt even more embarrassed and nervous. However, she could not help but feel warmth flowing through her heart. After an unknown period of time, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Mu Qiu Shui''s feet moving. He was about to leave the hall, but he, wasn''t he going to greet him before he left?

 C474

    At that moment, he felt a little flustered. He ignored etiquette, not caring about shyness. He even subconsciously raised his head and hurriedly called out, "Your highness ¡­"


    He covered his mouth in panic, not knowing what to say.


    Mu Qiu Shui''s footsteps paused for a moment, but he quickly regained his normal speed and walked straight out of the hall, leaving behind Shu Xin''s sad and confused face. She sat on the ground, looking at the eye-piercing red dress, and called out frantically in her heart: Mu Qiu Shui, Mu Qiu Shui...


    In the barracks.


    "Little sister, what''s wrong with you? The young eunuch came to report just now and the emperor betrothed you to that Prince Mu Qiu Shui. Isn''t this what you were thinking? He watched her grow up, beautiful and intelligent, gentle and refined. He didn''t know that she had reached the age of marriage, and even said that her elder brother was like a father to her. Now that she had finally gotten married, why couldn''t she be more pleased than he himself?


    But now, Shu Xin''s eyes were red and her brows were knit together. Where did it seem like there was such a happy occasion?


    "Big brother ¡­" Shu Xin threw herself into Shu Ren''s arms and sobbed softly.


    "What happened? "Hurry and tell big brother." Shu Ren also panicked. He gently caressed Shu Xin''s hair as he asked anxiously.


    His heart slowly calmed down as he said in a choked voice, "Big Brother, but ¡­ But he ¡­ He doesn''t seem to like little sister ¡­" After saying that, he began to cry sorrowfully again.


    When Great General Shu Ren heard her words, he heaved a sigh of relief and pulled her hand, smiling as he consoled her, "Silly sister, I thought you were the one that scared big brother. He doesn''t like you, but even if he doesn''t like you now, won''t he like you in the future?"


    "But how can I make him like me?" Shu Xin was still not confident.


    "Little sister, this big brother will naturally slowly teach you and discipline him so that he won''t be able to let go of you in the future." "Now that you can''t get his heart, you have to get his person first. Only when someone is by your side can you have the chance to capture his heart, so since the emperor has already bestowed the marriage, then you can happily become the one to get married. Don''t be sad or sorrowful, if anyone sees you, they will have to gossip. The most poisonous thing in this palace is the words of the people."


    "Really, brother, do you really have a way to teach me how to get his heart?" After hearing Shu Ren''s words, Shu Xin felt that it made sense, but she still wasn''t at ease.


    "Don''t worry little sister, how could big brother lie to you." In addition, when you marry into the Prince''s Mansion, the Prince will inevitably marry three wives and four concubines. You must be more shrewd, never have any intentions of harming others, and never lack a precaution against others! "Ai, since you''ve grown up and married, big brother will not be able to take care of you for the rest of your life. You have a gentle and pure personality, so big brother will always worry about you ¡­" As General Shu Ren spoke, his eyes turned red.


    Shu Xin hurriedly comforted her brother. The siblings spoke a thousand words to express their feelings. It was only until the sun was slightly to the west that General Shu Ren finally let go of his worries and left the palace, giving out another series of orders.


    As she gazed upon the rows and rows of bright red lanterns, she seemed to have forgotten the cold attitude that Mu Qiu Shui had shown her in the daytime. She couldn''t help but feel warm in her heart, Hmm, sister is right, he doesn''t like me today, but he might not like me in the future!


    Although Mu Qiu Shui was the Duke of Daxing, he had lived in Wind Nation for a long time. Thus, they could get together often, and not have to suffer the pain of having to leave their homeland and forget about meeting each other again.


    The news of Prince Mu Qiu Shui and the Princess of Wind Nation''s heart''s marriage quickly spread across both countries, and everyone said that the two of them were a perfect couple. This was a rare opportunity, but when the Daxing Emperor heard that his son was going to get married, he became extremely angry.


    The Empress laughed and advised, "Your majesty, Mu Qiu Shui should have long since reached the age to get married, but because of a knot in his heart, he has never married, so he hasn''t had a descendant. Now that he is finally willing to marry, there is hope for a descendant.


    The Daxing Emperor slapped her forehead, "That''s right, Empress. You have reminded me, I want him to quickly return to the Daxing to get married.


    Therefore, when the Daxing''s Emperor ordered this, Mu Qiu Shui was unwilling and unable to defy it. He had no choice but to put his obsession with Xi Jiu Er at the bottom of his heart and unwillingly return to his country to get married. He originally wanted to settle down in the Wind Nation and get closer to Xi Jiu Er, but from the looks of it, he could only plan it out in the future.


    Feng Qing Cheng was overjoyed. If Mu Qiu Shui went back to his own country, wouldn''t the threat of his love rival be reduced even more? Moreover, marrying the Prime Minister''s daughter to the Daxing''s King could be considered as a marriage. The Wind Nation had gained an additional ally, so why not?


    However, the joyous event in the Princess'' mansion had the worry of family members. That''s right, her daughter, who had been raised in a pampered age, was now going to be married into another country. She could not always take care of her parents. However, the imperial edict could not be disobeyed, and the marriage contract could not be broken. Moreover, his daughter had taken a liking to someone, so he could only temporarily put aside his worry and happily marry her out.


    Even though that country was far away and that person was cold, he was still his husband from now on. He would stay together from morning to night, and it would be very sweet just thinking about it.


    The wedding was scheduled to be held grandly in Daxing. The Daxing Emperor was very satisfied with Shu Xin as his daughter-in-law and gave her many maids and jewelry. That day, the clear sky, golden wind Xi Xi Xi, put on the wedding dress of the heart than usual more gorgeous, lovely, full of longing to sit in a happy sedan, full of happy fantasy later life.


    Finally, when the guests had dispersed, Mu Qiu Shui, who had been slightly drunk, entered the bridal room with the support of the servant. He looked at the man dressed in wedding clothes, who sat quietly on the side of the bed. He slowly walked over, carefully opened the handkerchief and murmured: "Young man!"


    Shu Xin slowly raised her head. Her bright eyes seemed to be filled with clear water as she shyly and gently looked at the man she loved at first sight, but she didn''t notice that the person she called out was another woman.


    Mu Qiu Shui stared at her face, his eyes extremely warm and gentle, he extended his hand and caressed her cheeks, as though he was caressing a beautiful jewel. The corners of Shu Xin''s mouth could not help but rise as she shouted out in a hoarse voice, "My prince!"


    When Mu Qiu Shui heard Shu Xin''s voice, he immediately retracted his hand. No, this was not Xi Jiu Er, this was the woman called Shu Xin! This was not the Xi Jiu Er that he loved, it was not!


    As if waking up from a dream, Mu Qiu Shui retreated step by step, without saying another word, and then left the bridal room.

 C475

    The wine spilled all over the floor, and the water droplets that rolled on the floor were the hearts that had been broken into pieces. The tears had dried, and the red candle was flickering on the floor, emitting a lonely aura. Shu Xin was still sitting upright on the bed. Her hands and feet were no longer conscious. It was likely that her heart was even more unconscious.


    The sky was about to brighten and he would never return. What would happen tomorrow?


    The second day, the third day, the fourth day ¡­ In the end, he had never come back.


    On this day, the empress came to the empress dowager''s palace to pay her respects, as usual. The empress dismissed the crowd and left her alone. But doesn''t Prince Mu Qiu Shui treat you well? "


    It made his heart ache as he forced himself to say, "Imperial Mother is overthinking things. Your Highness treats me very well. Maybe it''s my first time in Daxing, so I can''t tolerate the soil and soil. "


    The Empress laughed and shook her head, "You have already been in my Daxing for half a year, how can you not submit to water and soil? "There is no need to lie to me. I am an experienced man. How can you be so energetic when you are newlyweds and if you are harmonious with beauty?"


    "I... "I ¡­" Shu Xin was speechless.


    "You two have been married for half a year, and are now young and vigorous. Every time the imperial physician comes out of your palace, he returns back to me with no joy, and as the imperial concubine, you must know the importance of the imperial heir. You must tell me everything about the relationship between you and him, so that I can come and make peace with him."


    Shu Xin''s shy face was so red that it reached her ears. The two of them had yet to consummate their marriage, so it was hard for them to say anything. However, they could not stop the empress''s aggressive questioning, so they could only answer truthfully.


    The empress muttered to herself for a long time before calling Shu Xin to withdraw. He went back to his room feeling uneasy, not knowing what would happen.


    That night, Mu Qiu Shui suddenly received an imperial decree. From that day onwards, Prince Mu Qiu Shui was not allowed to enter the palace gate as he wished.


    Mu Qiu Shui laughed coldly as he received the imperial edict. His eyes were gloomy and complicated.


    Shu Xin had already gone to bed. The servant girl suddenly came to report hurriedly that the Prince had come.


    A sense of relief filled his heart. Could it be that he had finally changed his mind, and his heart was once again filled with anticipation?


    He had finally arrived. He still liked to wear red robes, and his blood was boiling. It was exactly like the man she liked.


    "Prince ¡­" In front of him, it was as though she would always be shy like a little girl. This was the boundless love and love she had for him in her heart.


    "There is no need to be so courteous, Princess. I have come here to return the order." Mu Qiu Shui''s tone of voice was normal, as he passed the imperial edict to Shu Xi.


    Shu Xin took it and unfurled it. She felt bashful, wronged, and humiliated. Tears rolled down her face as her hands trembled uncontrollably.


    Seeing this, Mu Qiu Shui felt a little pleased, but he did not know why, but he could not bear it anymore. This complicated feeling made him restless, and he said, "If Princess Hua-Yang is not ready, then tomorrow ¡­."


    Shu Xin interrupted him and said in a clear voice, "The ancients speak about the virtues of women, and Jun Gang''s father, Ji Zhang, is one. Now that he has an imperial edict, how could he dare disobey the virtues of women?"


    Mu Qiu Shui was startled, the weak lady who was crying just now, how come she suddenly changed her face, neither haughty nor humble, with her sharp teeth, she actually underestimated her, it was truly interesting!


    In this half a year, Shu Xin had been suppressing herself and enduring her disappointment and indifference. She had reached a critical point, but today, after seeing the imperial edict, she recalled the Empress''s words, as if everything she said was a joke. The pride in her bones was aroused.


    This round room that came in compliance with the decree was far from the tender affection he had imagined. Shu Xin closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, silently warning herself not to cry, absolutely not to cry.


    Finally, it was all over. The red candle was still burning. The hibiscus tent was silent. Was this the imprisonment of a lifetime?


    The second day, the third day, the fourth day ¡­ He never let up, and she never let him down. Finally, everyone in the palace was rushing to tell her that Princess Chuanxin was happy!


    For the first time in the day, she took the initiative to go to his sleeping quarters. Her mouth was clear, and her face was expressionless as she said, "I''m happy. You''re free!"


    Mu Qiu Shui raised his eyes, looked at her quietly and laughed: "Freedom?"


    Later, Mu Qiu Shui realized that he had hurt Shu Xin Yuan because he wanted to get back at her. After all, what had she done wrong? Just like me, that''s all.


    After that, she became pregnant in October, and Mu Qiu Shui stayed by her side to take care of her. He felt that he would treat her well, and he finally felt that Mu Qiu Shui was very happy to have feelings for him.


    After ten months of conception, Mu Qiu Shui and Shu Xin gave birth to a daughter, named Qiu Xin. Qiu Xin was exceptionally bright, with big cute eyes and watery eyes.


    Mu Qiu Shui had originally planned to visit the Wind Nation to see his daughter after he gave birth to her, but because his daughter was young, the Daxing Emperor didn''t allow him to leave the palace.


    On the other hand, and his family lived a sweet and sweet life.


    "The emperor has arrived!" The eunuch called out from far away, as if he didn''t know who it was.


    Towards such a thing, Xi Jiu Er was especially speechless.


    "Chenqie pays her respects to Your Imperial Majesty." Although Xi Jiu Er was not afraid, but there were outsiders who had to pay their respects, if not these rumors would reach the ears of the bystanders.


    Without waiting for Xi Jiu Er to finish saluting, Feng Qing Cheng pulled her up.


    "Your majesty, why are you leaving so early today?" asked. It was much earlier than usual today.


    Feng Qing Cheng disapproved.


    "Since you have nothing to report, report it to the royal court."


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless, there was nothing to do so early in the morning.


    "What is it? If I was to accompany you during the next assembly earlier, wouldn''t you be happy? " Feng Qing Cheng saw Xi Jiu Er''s expression.


    How could he not be happy, but even so every day, it was getting more and more boring in the palace.


    Feng Qing Cheng seemed to have seen through what Xi Jiu Er was thinking.


    "I know you''re bored to death, so I brought you out of the palace earlier to fly a kite at the Great Clarity Lake. How about it?" Feng Qing Cheng said in a fawning tone.


    When he heard that they could leave the palace, Xi Jiu Er was overjoyed. However, thinking about how his son had been living in the palace ever since he was young, it was perfect for him to take them out for this experience.


    "Your majesty, I''ve applied to bring two sons with me. My sons have both grown up and haven''t gone out yet." Xi Jiu Er said excitedly.


    The Emperor''s heart was filled with grief. It was clearly because he had two sons in the palace who lost their world, so he arranged to leave the palace and go to their world. He never thought that this woman would actually bring his son along.


    "No, I firmly oppose this!" You need to know that I''ve arranged this trip for us to pass our time together. Now that you''ve brought your son along, have you taken my feelings into consideration? " The emperor was unhappy.


    Xi Jiu Er was also unhappy. She felt that it wouldn''t be good if he didn''t bring her son along and left them to travel to this world.


    "Xi Jiu Er has decided. If I don''t bring Steamed Bun and Little Dou, then I won''t follow the Emperor out of the palace. I''ll decide like this." Xi Jiu Er threatened.


    Helpless, the emperor still obeyed Xi Jiu Er.

 C476

    The children, too?


    The two children became excited when they heard that they were leaving the palace, because most of them had never left the palace since they were born. They wanted to know what was outside the palace walls.


    On the carriage, the two children asked Xi Jiu Er as if they had a lot of questions.


    "Muhou, shall we return to the palace tonight?" Steamed Bun asked.


    In fact, Xi Jiu Er did not know either.


    "That I don''t know. Ask your royal father. Go." Xi Jiu Er laughed.


    , who was at the side, was unhappy. He had always thought that they had lived in two different worlds, but now there were two more kids who were constantly asking questions.


    "Father, are you returning to the palace tonight?" Dou asked.


    "No." Feng Qing Cheng was extremely cold.


    "Then where should we stay tonight?" Dou Dou asked again.


    "Inn." Feng Qing Cheng had always been cold and aloof.


    Xi Jiu Er was curious, if she did not go back to the palace tonight, wouldn''t she have to go to court early tomorrow? However, since he said there was no need, she must have made the arrangements. Thus, she didn''t ask any further.


    When they arrived at their destination, the two children were overjoyed.


    "Where is the Queen Mother? "So beautiful." The two children asked in the same tone and manner.


    Of course, these were twins. They had the same thoughts and were used to it.


    "Little gongzi, outside the palace, you have to respect the emperor as your father and the empress as your mother. Do not reveal your identity." The father-in-law prompted the two children.


    Xi Jiu Er didn''t think that these two kids would be so familiar with each other that they would play whenever they saw something fun to play with. It was fun.


    Feng Qing Cheng pulled Xi Jiu Er and sat on the grass in the distance, watching the two children flying kites. Originally, Xi Jiu Er was unwilling, but did Feng Qing Cheng say that so many people could not stand watching the two children play? Xi Jiu Er thought that Feng Qing Cheng was originally unhappy, so she decided to let him be, the two of them should stay together.


    After all, when they were being intimate in the palace, they still had to wait for the arrival of these two children, because seeing them made them feel so embarrassed. Moreover, they were still young, but they were almost always able to make these two little guys see them.


    It was just like one time when Feng Qing Cheng gifted Xi Jiu Er a Night Pearl that could be paid as tribute by a foreign power, Xi Jiu Er was very happy and couldn''t help but become intimate with them. She had thought that they wouldn''t be able to see him from the quarters, but who knew that when Feng Qing Cheng came to find him, they had forgotten to close the door?


    This time, after leaving the two people''s world, he did not bring these two children with him. He did not expect that Xi Jiu Er would definitely bring them.


    After sitting down, Feng Qing Cheng immediately pushed her to the ground and kissed her passionately. It had been a long time since he had tasted this feeling. Ever since he had a child, everything had changed because of him.


    "Dad, mom, what are you doing?" Feng Bao Zi and Feng Xiaobie looked at the scene of the couple with their faces red and ashamed.


    The two of them stopped when they heard the sound.


    "Aren''t you going to fly a kite? What are you doing here? " Feng Qing Cheng berated loudly.


    Feng Bao Zi was speechless, he had never played with something like a kite before.


    "Father, we won''t. Why is it that the kite we''re flying on can''t fly in the sky? Didn''t they say that kites can fly in the sky?" Feng Xiaobie asked.


    "It''s all your stupidity." Feng Qing Cheng was furious, these two children were love rivals.


    Xi Jiu Er was helpless, these two children really knew how to find her, they had always bumped into this kind of thing.


    "Don''t scold these two children like that. After all, they are your sons. Even if they are stupid, you gave birth to them. You can''t blame them." Xi Jiu Er had always doted on her son.


    Hearing this, Feng Qing Cheng couldn''t help but want to kill these three mother and son. According to Xi Jiu Er''s words, these two children were a stain on his intelligence.


    Seeing that, Feng Qing Cheng''s face changed again, as though he wanted to kill someone, and wanted to kill everyone present.


    "Xi, don''t be angry. If you get angry, go and teach the kids to fly kites. If you want to be a good husband, then go and be a good father." Xi Jiu Er drove Feng Qing Cheng away with a fawning tone.


    Feng Qing Cheng got up and used his kite.


    "Why aren''t you guys going to take a look at your father? Your father really is amazing at kiting." Xi Jiu Er hoped that these two children could worship their father.


    After the two children heard this, they took the kites on the ground and ran towards Feng Qing Cheng, afraid that they wouldn''t be able to learn it if they were later. After all, seeing how the others were flying so well, they wanted to learn it themselves.


    In truth, Xi Jiu Er was extremely happy when she was pregnant with the two children. It was just that she could tell that he loved the two children a lot, but she was helpless why the two children would always bump into each other when she was being intimate with Feng Qing Cheng the next time.


    Looking at these three father and son, Xi Jiu Er felt extremely happy. There was such a great fortune in the world for that woman to be as lucky as her, to have a husband, who would only take care of her himself, and then give birth to two lively and cheerful twins. She hoped that this was how life would go on. He really missed Mu Qiu Shui and Shu Xin Xin, the godparents of the two children already wanted to marry in Wind Nation a year ago, but he never thought that the Daxing Emperor would actually order them to return, and even ordered them to give birth to his grandson so that they could return their freedom. Xi Jiu Er had not seen them for more than a year, and previously, she sent a letter saying that she had given birth to his daughter, but she was too young, so she could not travel on the way back, and had to wait for her daughter to be older before coming back to visit us.


    Two years later, Daxing''s youngest daughter slowly grew up. He became more and more beautiful, just like Shu Xin.


    Later on, because Shu Xin had given birth to Mu Qiu Shui''s daughter, Mu Qiu Shui had always treated her with respect.


    "Royal Father! Where are we going? " Little Qiu Xin looked like she was in a daze, she was very cute!


    "Xin''er, we''re going to see your older brother. He looks really nice." Shu Xin said with a smile.


    This little Qiu Xin, she really likes to be comfortable, to the point of infatuation.


    Mu Qiu Shui thought that he still felt guilty to not be able to give her true love. The person he would always love would be Xi Jiu Er, and that was a fact that couldn''t be changed.


    "Father, mother, you''re finally here!" Little Dou and Steamed Bun, I missed you guys to death. " The two children saw from afar that Shu Xin and Mu Qiu Shui came to the palace with a cute little girl in their arms.


    "Little Dou, Steamed Bun, I''ve missed you guys so much. I haven''t seen you guys for so long, you look even more handsome than before!" What was going on? These two twin sons were already six years old. They had grown up to be pretty boys, yet their hearts were filled with pleasure and infatuation.


    "Godfather, who is this little beauty in your arms? She was so pretty! Just like a model. " Feng Bao Zi looked at Little Qiu Xin curiously.


    Little Qiu Xin knew that Feng Bao Zi was talking about her, so she shyly lowered her head and buried her memories within Mu Qiu Shui''s heart, not daring to speak anymore.


    Shu Xin thought that her daughter had always been bold, but she never expected her to be so shy today. Could he have fallen for Feng Bao Zi? However, thinking about it, that handsome face of that bun did indeed inherit Feng Qing Cheng''s genes.


    "This is your sister! She''s the daughter of her godfather and godmother. Mu Qiu Shui replied while smiling.


    "Good!" "In the future, just marry me and be my wife." Feng Bao Zi giggled.

 C477

    was startled, but thinking about it, it was just that Xiao Dou was Qiu Xin''s older brother, therefore Xiao Dou and Qiu Xin were not related at all. Although they were twins, Xiao Dou was''s son and Xiao Dou was also his son, if Qiu Xin really likes Xiao Dou in the future, it would be a good thing too.


    "Hey, Steamed Bun, this is what your father taught you, right?" Su Xin Xin teased.


    "Mother, I want to marry Qiu Xin as well." Feng Xiao Dou also had a good impression of Qiu Xin, probably from the relationship between siblings.


    Hearing Xiao Dou''s words, Mu Qiu Shui felt cold in his heart. He thought, no way, if he really marries Qiu Xin, that would be incest.


    Shu Xin was at a loss for words. What should she do? She only had one daughter, but she had two foster sons. Was she going to cut her daughter into two and marry them?


    "Come, Qiu Xin, come to mother''s place." Shu Xin reached out to hug Qiu Xin, while Qiu Xin obediently reached out for Shu Xin to hug. Qiu Xin, tell me, which brother do you like? " Shu Xin lifted the cold head of the shy nun.


    "I like big buns." Qiu Xin replied shyly, then buried her head in her embrace again.


    It was the first time when she was hugged by the Daxing Emperor, she actually invited the Daxing Emperor to "drink tea". In other words, when she was young, she pissed on the back of a tiger and knew how to play with toys, playing with other princesses of the same age. She did not expect that the little princess would be so unruly and unruly as to snatch her toy, but Qiu Xin pulled the back of the little princess'' hair from the back of her head and pulled her away so that the maid could cry loudly. This kind of Qiu Xin had already become famous in the Daxing when she saw the little maid. Not many people dared to provoke her.


    Feng Xiaozhu was not unhappy. After all, the person she liked was her big brother.


    But Feng Bao Zi was a little unhappy.


    "Little sister Qiu Xin, my name is Feng Bao Zi and I''m not the big bun. You can call me Big Brother bun, but please don''t call me big bun." Feng Bao Zi had never been named by anyone before, so she was very displeased to hear this name.


    "You''re called Big Bun, that''s what I like to call you. How can you be patient with that?" When Qiu Xin heard that Steamed Bun''s tone was not good, she did not concede her defeat and started to clamor towards Feng Bao Zi.


    Hearing that, good, her daughter had finally returned. With her daughter''s personality, it was possible that she liked Feng Bao Zi and made a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace.


    Qiu Xin cannot be so rude. He is Big Brother Steamed Bun, the prince of Wind Nation, and you are the princess of Daxing. It is impossible for you to scold him like this. Seeing that Feng Bao Zi was angry, Mu Qiu Shui scolded him.


    He did not expect Feng Bao Zi to do this.


    "Godfather, I won''t allow you to curse Little Sister Qiu Xin. Little Sister Qiu Xin is my future queen, you can''t afford to offend her." Feng Bao Zi shouted at Mu Qiu Shui.


    "Hey, Steamed Bun, who''s your future Queen? I heard you shouting at your godfather from a distance. " When Xi Jiu Er heard that Mu Qiu Shui had brought a small family into the palace, and specially rushed over to the prince''s mansion, she did not expect that she would hear from far away that her son had someone she liked who was still defending her.


    "Greetings, Empress." "Servants, servants, Mu Qiu Shui,, An Xin, Qiu Xin." "Greetings, Imperial Mother." Two princes.


    Come Mu Qiu Shui, have a good heart, I haven''t seen you in a long time, I missed you guys to death. " "Xi Jiu Er helped the two of them to carry Qiu Xin." This must be Daxing''s "intrepid little princess" Qiu Xin right? " Xi Jiu Er teased.


    "Hello, Aunt Xi Jiu Er." Qiu Xin bowed to Xi Jiu Er again. This was taught by Shu Xin before entering the palace.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at this well-mannered little aunt. It didn''t seem like the rumoured "intrepid little princess" ¡ª she was very ladylike.


    Xi Jiu Er was shocked, she looked at Shu Xin and Mu Qiu Shui.


    Shu Xin joked: "Our family is comfortable saying that we have fallen in love with the First Prince of Wind Nation. Please accept your future daughter-in-law, Xi Jiu Er."


    Xi Jiu Er immediately understood that the queen that Feng Bao Zi had mentioned just now was this three-year-old girl. Not only did Feng Bao Zi fall for her, Qiu Xin had even taken a fancy to her.


    "Mother, don''t worry. The Queen Mother has definitely fallen for Little Sister Qiu Xin. Little Sister Qiu Xin is definitely my brother''s queen." Feng Dou Zi spoke out Xi Jiu Er''s thoughts first.


    Yes, Xi Jiu Er had indeed fallen for this little girl.


    "The Emperor has arrived." The eunuch shouted loudly from afar. Who didn''t know that the emperor''s ceremonies had arrived?


    That emperor walked in domineeringly.


    "Greetings, your Imperial Majesty." Everyone.


    "Greetings, royal father." His two sons.


    Just now, someone came to report that the prince had brought a large and small family to the palace to visit us. The maid came to report that you were having a good time in the prince''s mansion. The Emperor smiled.


    Xi Jiu Er was speechless, he had already known that they had entered the palace only now, and they also required servants to report a few more times before they arrived.


    "The ''intrepid little princess'' who returns to the palace is Princess Xin''s daughter, Daxing. He likes you, your First Prince, and hopes that she can become your daughter-in-law." Xi Jiu Er replied honestly.


    Feng Qing Cheng looked at the little girl and Feng Bao Zi. Yes, she was indeed a good match, this little girl had the heroic spirit of a female hero, she was a remarkable woman. Unlike Shu Xin, who had a gentle, refined, and scholarly air, Shu Xin was a lady.


    "Fine, then I will grant the decree to help these two little fellows." Feng Qing Cheng said in a domineering manner.


    "Congratulations, brother. I''m really happy for little sister Qiu Xin." He thought that the reason he liked Little Sister Qiu Xin was because she was his foster father''s godmother''s daughter. That was all he could say about her looks, and that his brother truly liked Little Sister Qiu Xin.


    "Thank you, Imperial Father." Feng Bao Zi bowed respectfully.


    That "intrepid little princess" didn''t appreciate his kindness and only said arrogantly, "Big bun, you are under my control from now on. Do you hear me?"


    Hearing that, everyone laughed, it was indeed the strange woman from Daxing, the "intrepid little princess" Qiu Xin, they should not underestimate.


    This time, Feng Bao Zi was not angry, and allowed to act arrogantly.


    Xi Jiu Er thought that once his son had grown up, his son would have his own love for him. He would protect the girls he liked and he would definitely be a man with responsibilities in the future.


    "Then from now on, Big Bun''s royal father and empress are Qiu Xin''s royal father and empress, right? Mother. " Qiu Xin asked unrestrainedly.


    Shu Xin nodded benevolently.


    The "intrepid little princess" knelt down in great ceremony.


    "I pay my respects to Imperial Father and Imperial Mother." Qiu Xin said respectfully.


    Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er looked at each other, surprised, as they never thought that their son would already have a daughter-in-law at the age of six, how could he still be drunk?


    "Imperial Father and Mother, quickly make my future Queen stand up! Don''t let her get tired from kneeling! My heart hurts!" Feng Bao Zi shouted to Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er.


    Mu Qiu Shui and Shu Xin smiled, their hearts were pleased, for their daughter to be taken advantage of and treated well by others, this was Qiu Xin''s fortune, they believed that Feng Bao Zi would treat her well, Qiu Xin would be happy, after all, she was the "intrepid little princess" that no one could bully.

 C478

    Feng Qing Cheng looked at Feng Bao Zi in disdain and teased Xi Jiu Er, "My dear Empress, look at the son that you have doted on for so many years, and now that he has a wife, he has forgotten his mother. Look at him, you have doted on him for so many years."


    Xi Jiu Er disagreed with Feng Qing Cheng''s teasing.


    "May I ask, Your Majesty, how many times a month you go to the Shoukang Palace after taking chenqie?" Xi Jiu Er asked Feng Qing Cheng.


    Shoukang Palace was the empress dowager''s residence and the empress dowager was Feng Qing Cheng''s biological mother.


    Feng Qing Cheng was speechless.


    With these two sons of mine being happy, the sons will grow up, and have someone they want to protect. This is a good thing, in the future, you will definitely be a man of honor, and will definitely be much stronger than your Emperor Feng Qing Cheng. Xi Jiu Er helped her son as usual.


    "Thank you mother for your high hopes. Your son will definitely live up to my mother''s expectations. In the future, you will be a man with responsibilities and accomplishments." The two children said confidently.


    A few days.


    "Little sister Qiu Xin, have you ever played outside the palace?" Feng Bao Zi once again thought of the scene when he left the palace for the first time. At that time, even though her father was unhappy, under the persuasion of her mother, she still taught her and Little Dou how to fly a kite.


    "Big bun, what''s going on outside the palace?" Qiu Xin asked innocently. Qiu Xin probably never left the Palace and only came to the Wind Nation Palace after being born. The only time she left the Palace was when she saw the streets and alleys bustling with activity on the carriage, and she wanted to take a look, but her mother said that she couldn''t, and was in a hurry.


    Feng Bao Zi had gradually gotten used to Qiu Xin calling him this, and of course, only Qiu Xin could call him that. He faced Qiu Xin''s questions and pondered for a bit.


    "Little Sister Qiu Xin, the outside of the palace is so beautiful. There are lively streets and many delicious foods that we have to eat. When Little Dou and I were young, Little Mother Qian would often come to the palace to bring us these delicious food and fun things." As he spoke, Feng Bao Zi remembered the comfort of that time.


    Qiu Xin looked envious and jealous. Why hadn''t her mother left the palace to bring him these delicious foods? It''s not fair.


    "I want to leave the palace too, to take a look outside." Qiu Xin had actually been attracted by the outside of the palace in Feng Bao Zi''s words.


    Hearing Steamed Bun''s words, Qiu Xin also began to imagine what life outside the palace looked like. In her mind, she thought that people outside the palace should be carefree and at ease. There were delicious and fun things to eat every day. In particular, she thought that she should be able to live a happy life with someone she liked, regardless of the rules and etiquette of the court. Thinking about it, Qiu Xin wanted to go out of the palace even more. After all, she was a child who yearned for freedom. But how to get out of the palace?


    Qiu Xin turned around and asked Steamed Bun: "Big bun, how do you think I should leave the palace?" When Feng Xiao Bao heard how Qiu Xin saw him again, he felt extremely unhappy in his heart. However, because Qiu Xin was his beloved girl, she did not like Qiu Xin a single bit. His face only slightly flushed before calming down. After all, she had the mental fortitude of a prince.


    After calming down, he started to think about how he could leave the palace. Right, Feng Xiao Bao seemed to have thought of something? " We can find my mother, who is also your mother. " Hearing Feng Xiao Bao''s words, Qiu Xin did not react in time and was actually at a loss as to what to do.


    "Silly bun, why do you say that? Why would my mother bring us out of the palace?" Qiu Xin rolled his eyes at Feng Xiao Bao and said.


    "I''ll go," Feng Xiao Bao said to Qiu Xin helplessly. "Your mother will definitely listen to you. If you want to go out, then she won''t tell you to go out," Feng Xiao Bao said as she pretended to sigh.


    Qiu Xin hated it the most when people looked down on him like that, hence she pulled up Feng Xiao Bao''s ears. Stupid bun, what did you just say? " Qiu Xin''s hands continuously increased her strength, and her expression was extremely sinister, as if she was going to pull Feng Xiao Bao''s ears off.


    Feng Xiao Bao hurriedly stopped her, feeling the pain, "My future husband, I was wrong, stop! Husband, I know I was wrong!" Hearing Feng Xiao Bao speak of their relationship in the future so brazenly, her face turned red.


    "Scoundrel!" I will not be your wife in the future, and you will bully me! " She then went to find Shu Xin to beg her to bring him out of the palace to see the beautiful world outside.


    Seeing the figure of the fiery red figure disappear into the corner, the corner of Feng Xiao Bao''s mouth twitched slightly, "Hmph, mother can just say that you''re my wife, but you want to run away? There''s a door? " Thinking about it, Feng Xiao Bao patted on the corner of his clothes and stood up to go find his parents.


    "Mother, Xin`er wants to leave the palace to take a look!" She was just about to be happy that Qiu Xin would marry Feng Xiao Bao in the future. Although it was just a few words from the Empress, it would still make people happy.


    "No way!" However, in regards to Qiu Xin''s request, she heartlessly rejected it. We did not bring many servants with us this time, I''m afraid it''s not safe to go out of the palace. You have to know that it''s not like there are so many guards outside the palace to protect us, "With that said, she pointed at a team of patrolling guards for Qiu Xin to see. Qiu Xin was determined to go out, so how could she let her go just like that?


    "No, no, mother, Qiu Xin has to go out! If you don''t let Qiu Xin leave the palace today, Qiu Xin, Qiu Xin will... " Qiu Xin was still thinking about how she could coerce her to feel at ease, and she lowered her head to listen to what she had to say.


    Qiu Xin could not think of how to explain it, but his face suddenly flushed red, and in her mind, that handsome face of Feng Xiao Bao suddenly appeared, that''s right! "That''s him." Then Qiu Xin will not marry the foolish bun, and let you be convicted of deceiving the monarch, even if you are ¡­ " Just as she was about to continue, Shu Xin stopped him.


    "Qiu Xin, you can act like a spoiled child, but you cannot speak carelessly. I do not care where you heard those words, but in the future, do not speak about them again, understand?" This was the first time Qiu Xin had seen her mother this angry. Normally, even if the gentle and refined daughter of the prime minister got angry, she would still be as scary as a tiger.


    "As long as you are obedient, then mother will make an exception and listen to you once. Today ¡­" Qiu Xin purposely paused until her heart was in her throat, afraid that she would say something that she couldn''t.


    "Today, you better stay somewhere good for me!" As soon as he finished this sentence, he glared at Qiu Xin viciously. Hearing her mother''s words, Shu Xin couldn''t help but tear up as she slowly sat down and hugged her knees. She cried a little as she said to Shu Xin, "mother, how can you be like this? Don''t you love Qiu Xin anymore?"


    In the end, it was still his own child, so after seeing Qiu Xin like this, the motherly nature in the depths of her heart was also moved. Alright, alright, don''t cry anymore. Then, mother will bring you out of the palace to take a look when we chat.


    "Oh, mother is too good. I knew mother would take Shu Er out to play when they feel so much pain. " Qiu Xin changed from the crying look from before and started to circle around Shu Xin happily.

 C479

    "Seeing that his child was so happy, he felt so happy from the bottom of his heart." "But we have to agree beforehand," Shu Xin suddenly said to Qiu Xin seriously. Qiu Xin''s eyes were wide opened as he looked at Shu Xi''s face. mother, if you have anything, just say it, Qiu Xin will definitely listen to you! " "It''s funny that there is a little bit of determination on that tiny face. Seeing her child like this makes me feel so good." That''s good, then he wants to bring Feng Bao Zi along and he needs to listen to her mother''s words. "


    "Why did that dumb bun come along?" Qiu Xin asked Shu Xin Xin. Shu Xin helplessly looked at Qiu Xin and said, "My foolish daughter, please think about it carefully. How can you guys not lay a solid foundation together in the future? Furthermore, Feng Bao Zi is the prince of the imperial court. If he were to leave the palace, he would bring a lot of guards with him.


    Listening to his own mother talk about his and that man''s future. Qiu Xin felt a wave of shyness in his heart. Aiyah, mother hates it too! " After saying that, he turned around and picked up his handkerchief. The snow-white handkerchief began to twine around his palm in circles.


    "Alright, Qiu Xin is not willing? "Then forget it, mother just happened to be having a hard time resting during the journey." After saying this, Shu Xin pretended to be very tired and patted hshe shoulder, then walked to the house arranged for her by the palace to rest. When Qiu Xin saw her mother not taking him outside the palace, she could only bite the bullet and say, "I will listen to your orders, mother." After he finished speaking, some feelings slowly rose within her heart, because she wanted to go with Feng Bao Zi.


    "Then that''s good, let''s go look for your Big Brother Steamed Bun first," after saying that, he changed his expression into a tired smile and pulled Qiu Xin''s hand. Shu Xin and Qiu Xin easily found Feng Bao Zi, and then comfortably said to Feng Bao Zi, "Little bun, little bun, let mother take you and sister out of the palace to play."


    Feng Bao Zi had already guessed that Shu Xin would bring Qiu Xin to find her before leaving the palace together with her. Thus, Feng Bao Zi looked at Qiu Xin and asked: "Would little sister be willing to go out with big brother to play?" Qiu Xin shyly hid behind Shu Xin Xin''s back, not daring to say a single word. Shu Xin pulled Qiu Xin in front of her and said, "Big brother is asking you a question."


    Although Qiu Xin was one hundred percent unwilling, because she felt that it would be a bit strange being together with that Feng Bao Zi. However, she still told him in her heart that she must agree to it. Therefore, Qiu Xin said to her own mother, "Aiya, mother, don''t laugh at me anymore, just let me and my brother go out together."


    Hearing her daughter really say it out loud. Shu Xin felt that it was extremely funny, so she took Feng Bao Zi''s hand and said to the two children: "Then let''s go now." Seeing that Prince Feng Bao Zi was about to go out. The guard standing by the side hurriedly followed him.


    Just as they reached the entrance of the palace, the three of them were stopped by a guard. Puzzled, the guard asked, "Prince, what are you going out for?" Shu Xin pulled Feng Bao Zi''s hand and said to the guard: "Prince has always been feeling bored while staying in the palace. Coincidentally, today his sister also wants to go out to take a look, so I''ll take him out to play for a bit."


    The guard was relieved to see her and thought of her current identity, so he didn''t want to say anything more. He then looked at the guards following behind the three of them before nodding and saying, "I hope that Crown Princess Qiu thinks well of my prince. He should return as soon as possible. After all, it''s not safe outside."


    Feng Bao Zi then took the initiative to hold Qiu Xin''s hand and said to him, "Sister, you don''t have to worry about this brother protecting you."


    After that, the two of them walked out. As they walked, they saw a man and a woman holding hands walking on the sidewalk. Deep in his heart, he felt something strange. Was this what it meant to be loved? He thought of himself and that Duke Mu Qiu Shui. It really was like duckweed floating on water. It was worse than these two children, a pure and pure love. He could only shake his head helplessly and follow the two children. When the guards behind saw the three of them walking forward, they quickly followed them.


    "Little sister, look. The old man over there made a candy man." "This is the first time that Shu Xin has heard of sugar man, so she chased after her older brother''s shadow." What is a Chinaman? "How can he look like this? How can he look so small?"


    Hearing Qiu Xin''s words, the old master who was acting like a sugar man smiled and said to her: "Little friend, sugar men are people who are made of sugar. "If he were as old as you, how much sugar would he need?" Hearing the old man say that, Qiu Xin felt very suspicious, so she grabbed a candy man and fiercely took a bite, "It''s really made of candy."


    After seeing Qiu Xin being so reckless, Shu Xin immediately went forward to grab sher hand and said, "Qiu Xin, how can you be like this? It''s not right for you to eat without paying. " Feng Bao Zi saw his future wife being scolded by his future mother, so he took out a gold ingot and placed it in front of the old man, "I will buy this sweet man."


    The old master, who had been a sugar man for so long, hurriedly kept the gold and said to Qiu Xin, "Okay, little girl, how much do you need? I''ll give you all these candies, okay? " Qiu Xin also felt very happy and said to him: "Grandfather, other than making candies, what else can everyone else do?"


    The old man heard him proudly saying, "I''m not bragging. Other than Sugar Man, it''s a phoenix made of sugar. Dragons, etc. As long as you''ve seen them before, I can make them for you." Qiu Xin thought about it for a while, then said to the old man: "Then why don''t you make me a Sugar Dragon?"


    After all, in their place, dragons had a symbolic status. If one was not good, then that was the main crime. The elderly had a difficult expression on his face, and Feng Bao Zi could naturally see the change in the elderly''s expression. He said, "If there''s nothing wrong with this elderly, I can just do it!" Thus, she slapped her thigh and made him a sugar-dragon.


    Qiu Xin had already finished eating the candy at the side. Just as the elder was making the sugar-dragon, she stood at the side and watched his flying hands without blinking. Qiu Xin started to gnaw on her food like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey. Seeing her unrefined appearance, Feng Bao Zi laughed out loud.


    "Look at you, girl, how can you eat like this?" Hearing Feng Bao Zi ridiculing her like this, Shu Xin wanted to open her mouth to reprimand her. " "But I just like your craziness!" After hearing what Feng Bao Zi said, she quickly swallowed the words in her mouth.


    "Alright, since little sister is coming to big brother, I''ll bring you to see something even more interesting." After he finished speaking, he brought Qiu Xin to the next stall. He saw that this stall was a place that sold some reddish products and handicrafts. Some fine embroidery and some feminine red goods can be bought here.

 C480

    When he thought about how every girl knew how to deal with a girl, Feng Bao Zi turned his head and asked Qiu Xin, "My master knows how to deal with little sisters, do you know how to deal with girls? If you need any tools, big brother will buy them for you. " All of the officials kneeled down and shouted at Qiu Xin, thinking that she had never been a beauty since she was young. When Feng Qing Cheng heard them answer his question in such a manner, the flames of fury burned in his heart. His love for Xi Jiu Er made him angry the moment he heard that they were going to marry him again.


    With a "peng" sound, Feng Qing Cheng angrily slammed the table in front of him and stood up, shaking his head while shouting at the people in the Dragon Court: "I will drag him out and punish him heavily with 10 boards!"


    The board of the palace was different from that of any other small yamen board outside the palace. They were all first class heavy board. If they could endure through ten boards, they would only have half a breath left after finishing the fight, let alone ten.


    As Feng Qing Cheng finished speaking, he felt his heart stop beating, his face instantly became extremely pale, his hands covering his chest as he slowly sat down on the dragon throne. When the eunuch by Feng Qing Cheng''s side saw this, he immediately went forward to help him stand up, and said to the imperial court''s civil servant: "The emperor''s body is not feeling well, and will leave the imperial court today." After he finished speaking, he supported Feng Qing Cheng as he left the palace through the door behind a screen. A group of ministers were left behind to whisper amongst themselves.


    Seeing that the emperor had left the court, the ministers gathered in groups of two or three to discuss what was going on. Because none of them dared to look up as they were kneeling on the floor, they did not see how uncomfortable the emperor was.


    Just as the eunuch supported Feng Qing Cheng out of the back door, the eunuch asked Feng Qing Cheng, "Your majesty, are you feeling better?" Feng Qing Cheng then patted his chest and said: "It''s better now, you don''t need to support me like this anymore, I can walk by myself, after I finished speaking I will walk towards the direction of my own sleeping quarters."


    Suddenly, a servant girl ran over in a fluster. Seeing Feng Qing Cheng, she hurried to greet him: "Greetings, Your Majesty, Greetings to Eunuch. Servant is the empress''s personal servant." Hearing the word "Queen", Feng Qing Cheng''s heart inexplicably jumped a bit.


    "Dismissed. Quickly tell me, what happened to the empress?" As he spoke, he grabbed the servant girl''s arms and started to exert himself. When the eunuch by the side saw that the emperor was so excited that his servant girl blushed, he hurriedly stepped forward and interjected, "Hurry up and answer the emperor, you''re mute?" Because the voice that spoke was very loud, it stunned Feng Qing Cheng''s mind for a moment. When he came to his senses and felt that he had been too agitated, he let go of the servant girl''s arms and said to her, "It was my impoliteness, I''m apologizing to you!"


    Hearing that the emperor didn''t even know how to become a female disciple for Qiu Xin, Feng Bao Zi was extremely puzzled in his heart. He knew how to apologize to all the other maid in her palace, as well as his own imperial mother. "You little girl, you don''t even know these things!" When Qiu Xin heard Feng Bao Zi unexpectedly mock him, she hurriedly threw the remaining servant girl in her hands onto the ground and said angrily, "Recently, the Empress has been vomiting so much that she can''t even eat food! I made you laugh at me, you idiot bun!"


    The two of them happily chatted and ran down to a stall together. In addition, their faces were a lot paler due to lack of blood energy and they could even see the two children playing with each other as they shook their heads helplessly in happiness. The guards behind them also observed their surroundings and followed them closely.


    "Big brother, big brother, what is this?" Qiu Xin looked at Feng Qing Cheng who was pointing at him without caring about her zither, and thought of the flying kite she had just learned, and so she happily patted on the ground in pain. She pushed the eunuch beside him aside and patted her chest while saying to Qiu Xin, "Go ask the imperial physician to diagnose the Queen''s pulse. This is a kite! "It can fly in the sky!"


    Qiu Xin had never seen anything that flew into the sky without flapping its wings, so she said to Feng Bao Zi: "Don''t blow it for me, if you didn''t see that it was alive, how could it fly?" Feng Bao Zi vowed to Qiu Xin, "Aiya, if you don''t believe me, I''ll let you see where the Queen is unwell."


    The eunuch picked up the kite from the stall after he finished speaking, then pushed himself to the side so that he almost stumbled and fell, but after he regained his balance, he still said to Feng Qing Cheng and the guards, "Your majesty, you don''t have to worry too much. "Come," Listening to the eunuch speak in such earnest and earnest words, Feng Qing Cheng did not show the slightest bit of emotion. Rest assured, I will not die! "He pushed the eunuch away again and said," What dragon body! Without the Queen, what''s the use of having a better body? "


    When the guard heard, he hastily ran down to find the imperial physician to help the empress seize the kite. Feng Bao Zi held onto the kite string while the guard held onto the kite. Feng Bao Zi shouted. The servant girl saw the emperor''s angry appearance and felt fear in her heart. "Run!" Therefore, the guards encircled Feng Qing Cheng and gently pushed aside the people in front of them, wanting to go in and take a look. Everyone turned back to greet the emperor when they saw him. Feng Qing Cheng was afraid that he would disturb the Imperial Physician diagnosis so he placed his finger in front of his mouth and silenced them.


    The servants obviously knew what the emperor meant, so they all felt that they had opened up a path for him to walk into the palace. Once he entered, he saw an ancient screen. Without even looking at it, Feng Qing Cheng turned and walked over to the bed, which was behind a pillar. The imperial physician was sitting on one side of the bed, one hand on Xi Jiu Er''s pulse and the other constantly rubbing his goatee.


    After a while, the imperial physician withdrew his hand, stood up, and started to run. He shook his zither, and the guard suddenly released his hand. Qiu Xin was extremely happy to see the piece of paper that could fly so high. She turned around and saw Feng Qing Cheng in front of him, holding onto him. She hurriedly kowtowed three times to the emperor, even saying, "This old official deserves to die. Please forgive me for not seeing the emperor!" waved his hands, and the indifferent bun said, "Wow, wow, wow, wow, you''re so tall, you really know how to fly!" As soon as saw me, he forgave him, and you talk about how the empress and her children were having fun together. Xi Jiu Er was also immediately disappointed, could she not give birth to another fruit of love for Feng Qing Cheng?


    "But if the empress can properly mend her body, eating more medicine will allow her to safely give birth to a child," the imperial physician turned around and paid for Feng Qing Cheng, but hearing the doctor''s words, his apprehensive heart finally relaxed.


    "Then please write brother, brother, let me play with you for a while," Qiu Xin asked Feng Bao Zi in a playful voice. Feng Bao Zi wanted to make things difficult for the savage girl, so he continued to concentrate on controlling the kite string while it flew around in the sky, refusing to respond to Qiu Xin.


    The moment Qiu Xin became angry, she forcefully pulled the strings and placed them in her hands. Then, Feng Bao Zi started to fight with her. "Steamed Bun, are you big brother trying to let your little sister win?" Feng Bao Zi felt too embarrassed to snatch the formula for the medicinal food away after hearing his mother''s words.


    Thus, he said to Qiu Xin, "Little sister, I''m still teaching you. Didn''t I not give it to you? Do you know how to fly a kite and steal it?" It''s fine, just ask Big Brother to teach you, "after speaking, he passed his hand over to Qiu Xin and said to her." Hold on to this rope, do you see ¡­ " The three of them spent the entire day happily strolling around the market.


    While the three were happily playing. However, a major event had occurred in the Imperial Palace. The ministers began to write a letter to the emperor about the emperor''s daily needs as the sole concubine, the Empress. Golden halls were naturally held in the Golden Hall, and under the baptism of sunlight, they were even more majestic. Golden stone lions were standing on both sides of the gates, and red paint was the most basic color. Step after step, the ash-gray stone steps met the vermilion palace in an interesting way. When compared to each other, the palace''s five-colored tiles were exceptionally beautiful, with even a hint of blurry color.


    The ministers had already gathered early on, and as the guard rang the bell in the meeting hall, they all jumped in to the hall to eat. The civil officials, the military officials, and the civil officials all wore robes decorated with different medicines. The only reason why the military officials were all wearing the same general armor was that their colors were different. Furthermore, the two teams advanced in an orderly manner according to their rank.


    After the ministers had entered the Golden Hall, the morning assembly for the day began.


    The first one to submit his report was the President of the Government Department of the Three Dynasties and Elders. The Minister of the Civil Service was an old man close to the age of zero, almost reaching the age where he could return to his hometown. Moreover, the reason why he was the first to bring up this topic today was because it was time for him to return home and not follow the late emperor in vain.


    "Today, my Royal Only Queen prepared a harem for him, and he only has two princes, Dong Gong Qing Leng. A lack of connections, a bleak court, and a weak atmosphere made things difficult for the people. turned his head around and did not say anything after hearing the imperial physician''s words. He only replied indifferently, and then said to the servants, "Give me out our imperial palace and we should discuss this matter at a later date. We still have to put national affairs as our priority, and keep our own personal matters as ingredients and medicine for later on. Every day, we have to nourish the empress and it''s only me. There is no time now for me to do anything. "What about that plan?"


    The ministers all thought that the emperor had the intention of changing concubines, but the timing was not right. As a result, they all began to write their books. However, because the order of the officials was from the highest to lowest, some people could only blame themselves for not reaching a higher position.


    The Minister of the Civil Service had just finished playing when he coughed and took a step back. Then came the Ministry of Revenue. In this department that specialized in population, the Minister of Revenue was also an old man. However, compared to the previous one, he was still young. He was only an elder of two dynasties, but he had a high reputation in the imperial court. Otherwise, he would not have studied in the second place.


    "My Emperor, this subject believes that the Minister of Government''s words are reasonable. The past generations of emperors have many branches, and with this, they will be able to assess the character of the various princes, and also increase the strength of the Feng Family. Moreover, the Imperial Palace won''t be so desolate ¡­" The Minister of Revenue had pointed out the sore point of Feng Qing Cheng.


    Although Feng Qing Cheng was a little angry in his heart, it was not good for him to flare up. But in his heart, he was already starting to be suspicious. Could it be that all of them, these stubborn old fellows, were all talking about this today? Then what should I do? I told Xi Jiu Er that I wanted to be different from all the emperors before, I only married her when I heard about an empress.


    Feng Qing Cheng then quickly sat down on the bed and laughed, then said to the people of the imperial court: "The Emperor, all of you must report this matter in this book, the Emperor must not do it, the Emperor must not go missing for a day, can''t you do it?" Because when I, Feng Qing Cheng, said it while laughing, the entire imperial court thought that he had agreed, and started to think about his woman''s plans and missed out on the national affairs. If that was the case, you and I would have left behind a reputation that the people despised! " Is it right for a son or a sister or something?

 C481

    When he thought about how every girl knew how to take on the female red, Feng Bao Zi turned to Qiu Xin and asked, "Little sister, do you know how to take on the female red? If you need any tools, big brother will buy them for you. " Qiu Xin had never been a beauty before. She looked at the needlepoint items on the stall and shook her head. "I''m not going to do this."


    Hearing that Qiu Xin did not know how to make a female disciple, Feng Bao Zi was extremely confused in his heart. "You little girl, you don''t even know these things!" When Qiu Xin heard Feng Bao Zi actually mock him, she immediately threw the remaining sugar dragon in her hand onto the ground and said angrily, "I''ll let you laugh at me, you idiot bun!"


    The two of them happily continued fighting as they ran to the next stall. Seeing the two children playing so happily, they helplessly shook their heads and followed. The guards behind them also observed their surroundings and followed closely behind them.


    "Big brother, big brother, what is this?" Qiu Xin looked at a kite that was pointing at him and asked. Feng Bao Zi thought of the kite he had just learnt, and happily patted his chest and said: "Little sister, this is a kite! "It can fly in the sky!"


    Qiu Xin had never seen anything that flew into the sky without flapping its wings, so she said to Feng Bao Zi: "Don''t blow it for me, if you didn''t see that it was alive, how could it fly?" Feng Bao Zi vowed to Qiu Xin: "Aiya, if you don''t believe me, I''ll show you."


    He then picked up the kite from the stall and said to the guard behind him, "Come here!" The guard hurriedly ran over and grabbed the kite. Feng Bao Zi held onto the kite string while the guard held onto the kite. Feng Bao Zi shouted: "Run!" The guard then pulled the kite with him and ran. Then, the guard suddenly released his grip. This was the first time Qiu Xin saw a piece of paper that could fly so high, and was very happy. He said to Feng Bao Zi who was holding onto the string of the kite, "Wow, it''s really high, it really can fly," when he saw the two children playing so happily, he turned around and paid for the kite.


    "Big brother, big brother, let little sister play for a bit," Qiu Xin said to Feng Bao Zi in a playful voice. Feng Bao Zi purposely made things difficult for the savage girl, Qiu Xin, so he continued to concentrate on controlling the kite string, allowing the kite to fly around in the sky without responding to Qiu Xin.


    The moment Qiu Xin became angry, she forcefully pulled the strings and placed them in her hands. Then, Feng Bao Zi started to fight with her. Feng Bao Zi saw the two kids fighting over the kite and quickly rushed forward to stop them. "Steamed Bun, are you big brother trying to give up on little sister?"


    Thus, he said to Qiu Xin, "Little sister, I''m teaching you. I''m not giving it to you, are you? Do you know how to fly a kite and steal it from me?" It''s fine, just ask Big Brother to teach you, "after speaking, he passed his hand over to Qiu Xin and said to her." Hold on to this rope, do you see ¡­ " The three of them spent the entire day happily strolling around the market.


    While the three were happily playing. However, a major event had occurred in the Imperial Palace. The ministers began to write a letter to the Emperor on the subject of the Emperor''s sole concubine, the Empress, who was a mere person of the two princes. Golden halls were naturally held in the Golden Hall, and under the baptism of sunlight, they were even more majestic. Golden stone lions were standing on both sides of the gates, and red paint was the most basic color. Step after step, the ash-gray stone steps met the vermilion palace in an interesting way. When compared to each other, the palace''s five-colored tiles were exceptionally beautiful, with even a hint of blurry color.


    The ministers gathered early on, and with the gong of the guards ringing the bell, the ministers leapt into the golden hall. The civil and military officials wore different accessories. The military officials wore the same kind of military uniform, but their colors were different. Furthermore, the two teams advanced according to the rank of official from top to bottom.


    After the ministers had entered the Golden Hall, the morning assembly for the day began.


    The first one to submit his report was the President of the Government Department of the Three Dynasties and Elders. The Minister of the Civil Service was an old man close to the age of zero, almost reaching the age where he could return to his hometown. Moreover, the reason why he was the first to bring up this topic today was because it was time for him to return home and not follow the late emperor in vain.


    "Today, my Royal Unique Queen had a harem, and Dragon King only has two princes, Eastern Palace is cold. A lack of connections, a bleak court, and a weak atmosphere made things difficult for the people. did not say anything after hearing him say that, he merely replied indifferently, and said to him: "We should discuss this matter another day. We are still putting national affairs first, so we should put our own personal matters in the future." "I don''t have any plans for that right now."


    The ministers all thought that the emperor had the intention of changing concubines, but the timing was not right. As a result, they all began to write their books. However, because the order of the officials was from the highest to lowest, some people could only blame themselves for not reaching a higher position.


    The Minister of the Civil Service had just finished playing when he coughed and took a step back. Then came the Ministry of Revenue.

Could it be that all of them, these stubborn old fellows, were all talking about this today? Then what should I do? I told Xi Jiu Er that I wanted to be different from all the emperors before, I only married her as a empress.


    Feng Qing Cheng laughed, then turned to the imperial court and said to the civil and military officials: "Are all of you going to report this matter?" Because Feng Qing Cheng was smiling when he said that, the entire imperial court thought that he had agreed, and started to plan whether or not he should agree to it with his daughter or sister.

 C482

    Hearing Xi Jiu Er say that, Feng Qing Cheng laughed as he walked to Xi Jiu Er''s side, he slowly sat on the side of the bed and held Xi Jiu Er''s hand: "We will not hold up the imperial court, in the imperial court, we are the emperors with thousands of eyes, after the imperial court abdicates, only you will be our king." Hearing Feng Qing Cheng''s words made Xi Jiu Er''s heart feel very warm.


    Who would not be happy and happy to hear that? It was already a blessing of three lifetimes to be able to receive the love and love of a king. To be able to give birth to a son of a dragon was a blessing that he had accumulated for countless lifetimes.


    While the two were loving each other, the imperial physician had already written out the most important details of the day, as well as some medicinal food and food. The imperial physician walked over to offer it to Feng Qing Cheng with a piece of paper held high above his head. Feng Qing Cheng immediately waved his hand and said, "If there''s anything that I can do, I can just follow the instructions of the imperial physician and arrange for the empress''s life for you." When he said this, he was also looking at Xi Jiu Er lovingly, without turning her eyes at all, afraid that in the blink of an eye, Dragon Xi Jiu Er would disappear from her sight.


    "Withdraw!" On the second day, none of the ministers in the imperial court dared to bring up the matter of getting more concubines for the emperor. They instead all congratulated Feng Qing Cheng on getting another prince, talked about some trivial matters, and left the imperial court.


    After retreating from the imperial court, Feng Qing Cheng arrived at Xi Jiu Er''s side with familiarity. Xi Jiu Er was currently bringing the two children to play hide and seek when Xi Jiu Er saw the three of them having fun. He didn''t want to disturb them and just watched from the side. It just so happened that it was Xi Jiu Er''s turn to look for children. Feng Qing Cheng thought for a moment and then appeared in front of Xi Jiu Er.


    Xi Jiu Er threw herself onto Feng Qing Cheng''s body all of a sudden, "Haha, I caught it, let me guess who it is that''s caught?" Behind him, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Xiaobie were laughing so hard that they were about to laugh out loud.


    "Steamed Bun?" No, Steamed Bun isn''t that tall, right? Bean? "It doesn''t seem like it." Xi Jiu Er was still wondering why her two sons suddenly became taller. Just as she was wondering, Feng Qing Cheng opened his mouth, "It''s me ¡­" The moment Xi Jiu Er heard her magnetic voice, Xi Jiu Er hurriedly took off the black cloth that was over her eyes. She took a step back and pulled two children over and said, "My regards to the Emperor, chenqie likes to play around for a while ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng said tyrannically to Xi Jiu Er, who looked at the two kids laughing behind him and also tacitly gave Feng Qing Cheng a kiss, "Let us first experience how much you love me, then we can talk."


    "Alright, I won''t pursue your wrongs, right, darling?" After saying that, she picked up the little bun and blew against Feng Bao Zi''s nose. Feng Bao Zi''s pouting angrily, but was the opposite as Feng Qing Cheng scratched her nose again, causing her rosy nose to look exceptionally cute. Feng Xiaobie laughed happily. His laughter contained the intention of watching a good show. When Feng Qing Cheng saw Feng Xiaobao like this, she also gave him a huge shock. "I told you to laugh!" The family was happily together.


    "Jiu Er, have you eaten dinner today?" Feng Qing Cheng suddenly thought of that and asked Xi Jiu Er. Xi Jiu Er frowned when she thought of the medicinal food, she had never liked the taste of the bitter medicine, so she had not tasted the medicinal food yet.


    Feng Qing Cheng naturally knew that his empress did not like the habit of drinking medicine, but thinking of how this prince who truly belonged to her, had hardened her heart, he had to at least make her drink it.


    "Men, bring the medicinal cuisine here. This emperor will personally feed it to the empress!" Hearing Feng Qing Cheng''s words, how could the people dare to be negligent and hurriedly bring the medicinal food up? The bitter and bitter taste of the medicinal soup pervaded the air just as it was brought up, and even Feng Qing Cheng frowned slightly. "Jiu Er, a good medicine makes one sick," Feng Qing Cheng said to Xi Jiu Er as he held the medicine bowl. After Xi Jiu Er heard this, she rolled her eyes. If you have the ability, drink it, why aren''t you drinking the good medicine?


    Feng Qing Cheng naturally knew what Xi Jiu Er was thinking, and seeing that Xi Jiu Er wasn''t paying attention, he picked up the spoon and placed it near her mouth. Don''t you love me anymore, Empress? " Feng Qing Cheng shamelessly said to Xi Jiu Er.


    Hearing Feng Qing Cheng''s sudden words, Xi Jiu Er immediately tried to clarify, "What?!" As soon as he opened his mouth, the smell of medicine spread out from his mouth into his stomach. Slowly, his entire body was wrapped up by the taste of medicine.


    "Why not!" After saying that, she picked up the medicine bowl in Feng Qing Cheng''s hands and finished it in one gulp. Feng Qing Cheng just watched her swallow the entire bowl of medicine one after another. He was so happy that he smiled, but in his heart, he was constantly apologizing to Xi Jiu Er. Those old fools want me to have a few more children. They say it''s for the good of our family, but who doesn''t know that their daughter, granddaughter, and niece want to reach greatness when they reach the age of marriage. Only you, who can have a second prince, can stop them from talking for a while.


    "Father, what is Imperial Mother drinking? "Why doesn''t it look good at all?" Feng Bao Zi asked Feng Qing Cheng first, while speaking, he was still staring at his mother''s beautiful face which was twitching in pain, and he couldn''t help but feel his heart ache.


    Feng Qing Cheng proudly said, "Your mother, ah, is going to give birth to your little brother again. In the future, the three of you will play together, how great is that?" With that, he looked at the two princes. These two children were not bad either. The longer the character, the better. He was also quite smart and happy to treat these two children as his own.


    "Do you need to drink that weird medicine to give birth to your little brother?" After all, the child''s curiosity was a bit stronger. Feng Qing Cheng only smiled, but was not impatient.


    "Because you two little robbers robbed your mother of all her nutrition, so in order to reproduce, your mother needs to nourish this younger brother. This bowl of medicinal food was specially prepared by the royal father from the imperial physicians. It was specially prepared for your mother to nourish her. Although it will be a bit bitter, it''s better to use good medicine to cure the illness ¡­ "Hearing her father say this, the two princes began to think of ways to compensate their younger brother, who lacked nutrition.


    "Father, why don''t we take out our toys for our younger brother to play with?" In the end, Feng Bao Zi''s brother was generous and quick-witted, after hearing his brother say this Feng Xiaozhu also continued, "Okay, okay, we don''t have anything else for brother either." After saying that, he even picked up the small sandalwood sword that he was wearing and said: "This is a toy that royal father gave to me, I will give it to little brother." Feng Bao Zi thought for a while and also took out his toy to give to Feng Qing Cheng.


    Seeing his two sons constantly taking out their toys from his body and from the palace, Feng Qing Cheng sat at the side and watched. Drum, kite, bow, arrows, all of his toys were taken out by the two children, forming a small hill that was placed in front of Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er.

 C483

    Seeing that his two sons were so sensible, Feng Qing Cheng was extremely happy and proud in his heart. Xi Jiu Er, on the other hand, was breathing heavily at the side, slowly suppressing the discomfort of drinking the medicinal food. I don''t want any more! Xi Jiu Er shouted in his heart, but when he saw Feng Qing Cheng tomorrow, he didn''t know if she would still remember what he thought today.


    Six years later.


    "Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, what are you two running so quickly for? "Could it be that you are going to abandon your subjects and leave the palace to play?" Feng Bao Zi, Feng Xie Dou, Feng Yao and Qiu Xin followed closely behind Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er.


    Back then, everyone thought that Xi Jiu Er would eventually give birth to a boy, but later on, Xi Jiu Er gave birth to a daughter. Everyone was very happy, and said that Xi Jiu Er was the winner, that the happiest woman in the world was her, Xi Jiu Er. She had an emperor husband, a pair of handsome twin sons, and also gave birth to a beautiful little princess.


    It was a pity that Xi Jiu Er almost had difficulties giving birth to her daughter. Although the mother and daughter were safe in the end, Xi Jiu Er actually suffered from depression in the pregnant women, and ignored everyone who talked to her, including Feng Qing Cheng. She did not care about anyone else at all. She ran out, and ran out, but no one expected that Xi Jiu Er would not fall down the stairs in the pavilion, and when she was discovered, she had already fainted.


    He gave the order that if the Grand Hospital could not treat Xi Jiu Er''s entire body, they would accompany him in death and he would angrily scold the maids in the palace, "If you clearly know that the Empress has been distracted lately, why did you let her go? Do you want to die?"


    The servants all kneeled down, trembling in fear. "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Servant doesn''t know how the empress left, much less how."


    Feng Qing Cheng thought, recently Xi Jiu Er was in a trance, whatever medicine there is, it''s useless, does the heavens think we are being too fortunate? Could it be that it wanted to take Xi Jiu Er back? No way, my little girl was just born, she can''t lose her mother at such a young age.


    Furthermore, I can''t do it myself without Xi Jiu Er. Heavens, this child is so young, if you have eyes, then give Xi Jiu Er back to me.


    In the end, the imperial physicians of the imperial hospitals managed to pull Xi Jiu Er back from the gates of hell with great effort.


    "Reporting to the emperor, the empress''s life is no longer in danger. As for when she''ll wake up, we don''t know. Please be at ease, your majesty." The first doctor of the hospital came to report.


    The boulder in Feng Qing Cheng''s heart finally dropped. Heavens, thank you, you finally gave Xi Jiu Er back to me.


    But as time passed day by day, Xi Jiu Er did not show any signs of waking up. Although it was a long time ago, Feng Qing Cheng could not wait any longer.


    "Father, has mother not woken up yet? "Little sister, it''s a day of crying. How could she not have the care and concern of mother at such a young age?" The two children held the newborn Feng Yao in their arms, unable to contain their emotions. Xiao Feng Yao seemed to understand his two brothers'' words and immediately cried. He complained for himself, agreeing with his brothers that he was so young? How can it be gone, Imperial Mother?


    "Don''t disturb me, your Queen Mother is just too tired and needs some rest. You guys be good and go out to play. Don''t disturb your Queen Mother''s rest. Your Queen Mother will wake up soon." Feng Qing Cheng said silently, feeling weak.


    In the past few days, ever since the servant reported that Xi Jiu Er had fallen down from the pavilion and fallen unconscious, Feng Qing Cheng had been protecting him day and night. She did not dare to rest at all, and could only lie beside Xi Jiu Er to rest for a while, afraid that she would wake up hungry and fall asleep. No one would care about her, thus in the past few days, other than the imperial court, she had been visiting the palace to take care of her.


    "Wow, wow, wow." Feng Yao burst into tears.


    The two children didn''t know what to do. They were even more anxious here than there was because they had never taken care of such a small baby before.


    "Big bun, could it be that little sister Yao is hungry?" Qiu Xin guessed, because her mother said before that she would cry when she was hungry, and would not stop crying. She was even crying when she ate, and would only stop when her stomach was full.


    Big brother Qiu Xin is right, a newborn baby should either eat or sleep. It''s been a long time since little sister has eaten anything at this hour, she might be hungry. Xiao Dou also agreed with Qiu Xin''s suggestion.


    "But what does my sister want to eat? What did we eat when we were kids? " Steamed Bun was confused.


    "I don''t know, but mother said that as long as I''m hungry, then I''ll laugh and blossom. Perhaps mother will find a way to feed the child so that she won''t cry." Qiu Xin thought back to how she looked when she was young.


    "Yes, that''s right. The Queen Mother also said that we were raised by a wet nurse." Dou Dou agreed.


    "Then let''s carry our little sister to the wet nurse." After saying that, the three of them ran off to find the wet nurse.


    After the little princess had eaten her fill, she went to sleep soundly.


    "Little princess, the little princes are really capable! I understand, the Little Princess is going to send her to the Servant when she''s hungry. Fortunately, you all still know how to find the Servant, if the Little Princess was starving, the Emperor would blame you all. " The wet nurse praised these children who were not even a few years old. She did not expect these three children to be so capable that they knew how to take care of their sister at such a young age.


    "Water." Xi Jiu Er woke up, she felt that his throat was about to split open, and it was extremely dry.


    Feng Qing Cheng paused for a while, when he opened his eyes, he realized that Xi Jiu Er had woken up. He kept on asking for water, and it was all his fault as he could not endure it.


    Feng Qing Cheng carefully fed Xi Jiu Er some water. This was the first time Feng Qing Cheng had heard Xi Jiu Er talk since he had finished producing his daughter.


    "Hurry and get the imperial physician to wake Esteemed Empress up." Feng Qing Cheng said excitedly.


    "Servant obeys!" The servant girl ran to the hospital in high spirits and hurriedly pulled the imperial physician out.


    Along the way, he said, "Imperial Physician, do you know that esteemed empress has woken up? The emperor is extremely happy, and now he''s asking Servant to invite you here to take a pulse for the empress. Hurry up and go, the emperor is happy, the Servant is happy too, and the empress is awake. Everyone is happy."


    "Ah, the empress has woken up. Yes, this is a joyous occasion. The emperor doesn''t need to work so hard to take care of the empress anymore." The imperial physician felt sorry for the emperor. After all, there were very few Emperors that were as meticulous as he was. If he collapsed just like that, the Wind Nation would be in trouble.


    "This subject pays his respects to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live for tens of thousands of years!" When the imperial physician saw the emperor happily holding the empress''s hand, he guessed that the fatigue from coming in had disappeared as soon as the empress woke up.


    "The imperial physician, dispense with formalities. Come, hurry over and take a look. What''s wrong with the empress''s body?" and where is it that you haven''t completely recovered? " The emperor beckoned to the imperial physician.


    The imperial physician obeyed as he knelt in front of Xi Jiu Er and seriously checked the Empress''s pulse.


    "Who are you? Who am I? "Where is this place?" Xi Jiu Er suddenly asked. Initially, she wanted to ask but his throat was so dry that even if she wanted to, she couldn''t make a sound, so she didn''t ask. Later on, when she wanted to speak, she was stopped by the Emperor, saying that she knew that his throat was uncomfortable so she should rest for a bit.

 C484

    Everyone present looked at Xi Jiu Er in panic. This was obviously the empress, but why didn''t she know who the empress was? Where is this place? What was going on? Did the empress lose her memory?


    "Imperial Physician, what''s going on?" Feng Qing Cheng anxiously pulled the imperial physician''s collar and asked.


    "En..." Your majesty, the empress, may have suffered head injuries from the stairs in the pavilion, but this was just a temporary loss. Don''t worry, your majesty, wait for this subject to study him. The imperial physician did not dare guarantee that Xi Jiu Er would remember everything.


    With that, the imperial physician left. Even though the empress had woken up, she''d lost her memories and no one dared to provoke the emperor. If they accidentally provoked him, it would bring about a fatal disaster.


    "Father, royal father, is mother awake? I brought Little Sister Qiu Xin and Little Sister to visit Mother. " Feng Bao Zi brought a group of children in, like the heads of these children.


    "This son greets Imperial Father and Imperial Mother." The children all knelt down in salute.


    "Get up." Feng Qing Cheng''s tone was much better than before, although he had lost his memories, in the end, it was still better than not waking up at all. At least, he was taking care of a living person who was made of flesh and blood, unlike how there was no reaction at all before, and hence, Feng Qing Cheng was still rather happy. But the sad thing was that he had lost his memories, and had forgotten about his past and his children''s past.


    "Are you better, Imperial Mother? "I''ve been worried about you recently. I thought you wouldn''t wake up, wuu ¡­" After all, she was still a child. Thinking about it, if she accidentally lost her mother, how pitiful would she be? She should cry for once, but after Xi Jiu Er came out, these children had never cried.


    The amnesic Xi Jiu Er seemed to be touched by Feng Bao Zi''s crying. She gently caressed Feng Bao Zi''s hair, as if comforting her and telling her not to feel sad.


    Child, I don''t know if I''m your mother or not, and I don''t have much of an impression of you. Even if I''m your mother, child, or mother, I owe you one, so walk and don''t look at the road. After a few children heard what Xi Jiu Er said, they instantly cried, even the little princess who was sleeping soundly also started to cry.


    "Muhou, I''m your daughter-in-law. Didn''t you say that you loved the ''intrepid little princess'' the most?" Qiu Xin also began to cry.


    "Alright, why are you guys crying. Imperial Mother, it''s not like you''re dead, it''s just temporary amnesia. It''s fine if you''re a girl, but what are you boys crying about? Do you guys still count as a man?" Feng Qing Cheng cursed.


    "The Emperor''s children are also sad. You can''t scold him like this." Seeing Feng Qing Cheng being so angry, Xi Jiu Er could not help but say.


    Your majesty? Xi Jiu Er had never called him so respectfully when he was alone. Alright, she had already lost her memories, so there was no need to bother with her. Perhaps, she had already forgotten the name of this marriage.


    "Xi Jiu Er, let me tell you our past stories." Feng Qing Cheng felt a little disappointed when he saw how completely ignorant she was.


    "Mm, go ahead." Xi Jiu Er still maintained her respectful look.


    "You are called Xi Jiu Er, the queen of my Wind Nation, my wife. You gave me three children, a pair of twin sons, and a daughter who has just been born." Feng Qing Cheng told them about their past.


    I am Feng Bao Zi, your eldest son, and the one who was born with me is Feng XiaoDou, your youngest son is the one who was born with you, your youngest daughter is Feng Yao, your future daughter-in-law is my future wife, Daxing''s "valiant little princess" Qiu Xin, Feng Qing Cheng is my father, your husband, do you understand? Feng Bao Zi looked like a little adult.


    Xi Jiu Er looked at the child speechlessly, as if he was an exceptional person. It was a pity that he had no memory of anything, and no one remembered them.


    "Xi Jiu Er, you''re finally awake? "Your highness and I are both worried to death. Seeing the Emperor take care of you day and night, we, too, are utterly exhausted, unsure of what to do." It was indeed true that during this period of time in Wind Nation''s Imperial Palace, not many people would be able to sleep there.


    Xi Jiu Er was also extremely terrified, as someone else came that she couldn''t remember at all.


    "En..." I''m sorry I made you worry. " Xi Jiu Er could only apologize.


    Shu Xin felt that it was strange, why would Xi Jiu Er say such words. Usually, she was not courteous at all, but she was straightforward and said whatever she wanted to say, but now she was being tactful.


    "This?" "It''s nothing, you just need to get better. But why are you so polite to me?" It was this that caught his attention.


    Hearing Shu Xin''s question, although there were so many people present, no one could answer her. Shu Xin knew that something must have happened to Xi Jiu Er, could it be that she was suffering from some incurable disease? Or was she about to die? People say that people who are about to die always speak tactfully ¡­ Oh, she wouldn''t, eh.


    "Mother, Xin''er knows. Xin''er will tell you that mother has lost her memories and has completely forgotten about us." Qiu Xin looked like she was about to cry again.


    "Aiyo, Xin`er, be good and don''t cry. Your mother is in pain. Your mother has only temporarily lost her memories. She will soon remember us." As he consoled his daughter, he himself felt unhappy as well.


    He thought, why is this Xi Jiu Er doing this? How many people in her life were envious and jealous? Why did she have to have a daughter and end up like this? In reality, it was hard to produce a child. After that was postpartum depression, one could even roll down the stairs in the attic. One''s life was at stake as one would have to walk out of the gates of hell and then lose one''s memory.


    Even she felt comfortable and worried for her. How could the heavens treat such a kind person like this?


    "Alright, all of you go out and let Xi Jiu Er have a good rest." After all, Xi Jiu Er had just woken up and couldn''t be too tired.


    Everyone left, even Feng Qing Cheng. She was told to rest well, but she was not sleepy, she was thinking, does she really have two sons and a daughter, and a husband who loves her? What a blissful life this was, and he was the emperor''s woman. What a dream life. However, he couldn''t remember anything. The heavens were definitely jealous of his arrival. He had designed so many trials and tribulations to make him realize that happiness was not easy to come by.


    Prince Xian knew that Xi Jiu Er had woken up, but he didn''t come to see her because he was afraid that she would ask him who he was when she opened her mouth. But when he saw that they had all left, he couldn''t help but look at her. He knew that no matter how she became, he still loved her.

 C485

    "Xi Jiu Er, have you really lost your memories?" Prince Xian asked in disbelief.


    But it was a hit, too, and I wanted her to say, It''s not that I haven''t lost my memory.


    But she did answer, and I didn''t lose my memory.


    "I didn''t lose my memories." Xi Jiu Er said expressionlessly.


    "You really didn''t lose your memories, but why did you pretend to lose your memories? They were all worried about you, do you know?" Prince Xian blamed her emotionally, how could this woman do such a thing? But he was also happy, fortunately she did not lose her memories, she did not forget. He was also excited about everything, he was the first one to know that she did not lose her memories.


    But ever since he came, she had been expressionless towards him, and he was also very sad. Why was that?


    "Xi Jiu Er, why do you always have this kind of expression? After I came here, I don''t seem to be too happy that I came to find you, you weren''t like this in the past." Prince Xian looked to be frustrated.


    She still didn''t say anything to him. She was expressionless and didn''t want to talk to him. But after thinking for a while, she wanted to say something, but she hesitated. She didn''t know whether to say it or not?


    When the Prince Xian saw her like that, she became anxious.


    "Xi Jiu Er, just say whatever you want to say. I must have done something wrong for you to treat me like this, and you must have pretended to lose your memories because of what I did wrong, right?" Prince Xian immediately understood. He must have realized something.


    She still looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. She was a bit unwilling and felt that the time was not right yet. But think about it, if you say it too late, you have to say it clearly, how can you go over?


    "Prince Xian, put it this way. The night before I gave birth to Feng Yao, I dreamt that Dou was my son and you." Xi Jiu Er paused here for a moment, as she carefully observed the Prince Xian''s expression.


    Prince Xian was surprised to hear Xi Jiu Er''s words, she had actually dreamed about it.


    "After I woke up, I recalled that Steamed Bun and Little Dou were twins. They looked very much like each other but didn''t look like each other, as if the twins were printed out of the same mold, symmetrical in some places, in some places, and in some places. I could tell that this was a little funny, like you, because the more you grow, the more you look like them, and the more Steamed Bun looked like Feng Qing Cheng, the more he looked like you." Xi Jiu Er paused again for a while, and looked at Prince Xian''s face. Not bad, the little kid''s current look and his current appearance, other than one looked more mature, the other one looked more childish, without any difference.


    Prince Xian still had nothing to say, and broke out in a cold sweat due to the fright.


    Xi Jiu Er still did not intend to let him go. Xi Jiu Er had already calculated everything, everyone would definitely be sad when she loses her memories. She would rest by herself and think about the things that happened in the past while the Prince Xian was here.


    When everyone came to see her, he would not have the heart to come and see her because she had clearly seen the heart of the Prince Xian. He would not have the heart to hear her say that she had lost her memories. The plan was to talk to him alone.


    I can tell that your feelings for her are different from the feelings you have for Steamed Bun. Thinking back, you treated Dou Dou as a father and a son, while you treated Steamed Bun like a child. Honestly speaking, it was because you liked her that you treated her well, right? I could tell that she didn''t treat Steamed Bun that well, and I don''t think she knew that Xiao Dou was your son. Maybe he thought you liked Bean''s kid, so she was especially nice to Bean, and said she was nice to Bean because she wanted to please you. "


    Xi Jiu Er''s words were starting to crumble, she had betrayed Feng Qing Cheng at some point, and suddenly felt that she was very dirty. As she thought about it, her body could accommodate different people''s sperm, so it could be said that Steamed Bun was first frightened with Feng Qing Cheng, and then frightened with the Prince Xian within two months. Because the two children were both her children, they would look like normal twins when they were born, but the longer they were, the more different they would be.


    "I didn''t notice it at first, but then I had a dream, so I had to think about it. When I was giving birth to Yao, I just remembered to give birth to a bun and Little Dou. When I thought about how I knew that Feng Qing Cheng had given birth to two boys, I was extremely happy, but now that I have betrayed him, it turns out that I had betrayed him and given birth to a child for someone else. " Xi Jiu Er started to cry bitterly. She didn''t know if Feng Qing Cheng knew or not, but when she thought about how Feng Qing Cheng had only favored him, and yet he gave birth to a child for him.


    "Xi Jiu Er, are you really not willing to give birth to my child?" When Prince Xian heard her painful crying, he felt sad as well. He had never regretted it over the past, but he regretted it very much over her current pain.


    "Prince Xian, it''s not a question of reluctance, it''s a question of moral integrity. Feng Qing Cheng loves me so much, yet when he pampered me so much, I actually gave birth to another man behind her back. How can I face such a thing, he is the emperor." Xi Jiu Er shouted as he collapsed.


    When the servant heard that the palace was particularly noisy, she didn''t dare disobey the imperial edict and disturb the empress''s rest. However, she was worried that something might have happened inside. He could only report it to the emperor.


    "Your majesty, the empress is the only one resting in the palace. I don''t know why, but there''s a lot of noise coming from the palace."


    When Feng Qing Cheng heard it, he knew that Prince Xian had gone to see Xi Jiu Er. Feng Qing Cheng immediately rushed towards his room.


    "So what if he is the Emperor? Could it be that since he''s the emperor, I can''t compete with him for women? Xi Jiu Er, I like you too, what''s wrong with you? Prince Xian was also very sad to hear Xi Jiu Er''s words.


    "Because he is my husband, and the person I love is him. Prince Xian, right now, we can only blame it on fate for not being on the same side. Let me tell you this, we will never do it, even if Feng Qing Cheng dies, I, Xi Jiu Er, will still be his woman in this lifetime." Xi Jiu Er announced loudly.


    When the Prince Xian heard this, he had a bad feeling.


    BOOM! The door was kicked open by Feng Qing Cheng. Feng Qing Cheng''s face was filled with anger, he looked at Prince Xian, and that gaze, wished for nothing more than to kill him.


    "Feng Qing Cheng." Xi Jiu Er looked at the person who kicked open the door in shock, she did not expect him to come.


    "Prince Xian you bastard." Feng Qing Cheng was just about to grab Prince Xian''s collar again, and punch him.


    Feng Qing Cheng already knew about this matter, but he was angry because he actually told Xi Jiu Er about it. Xi Jiu Er would definitely be very sad, and when he was listening to them speak outside the door, he did not lose his memories, so he did not know why she pretended to be.


    Seeing that Feng Qing Cheng was about to reach out and hit Prince Xian, and that Prince Xian did not avoid him, Xi Jiu Er immediately got off the bed to stop him and threw himself into Feng Qing Cheng''s embrace.

 C486

    He shouted at Feng Qing Cheng as if he had collapsed, "Feng Qing Cheng is my fault, it''s all my fault. You''re pampering me so much, but I actually did all these things. With that, Xi Jiu Er knelt in front of Feng Qing Cheng.


    Feng Qing Cheng immediately pulled Xi Jiu Er up.


    "Xi Jiu Er, I''m not blaming you. Actually, I already knew about this matter from the beginning, the reason I didn''t tell you was because I didn''t want to make you sad." Feng Qing Cheng lowered her head helplessly.


    Xi Jiu Er crumbled even more when she heard it. Why? As you all know, I don''t know. I don''t even know who the seed belongs to when I give birth to a child. What do you think I am?


    "Feng Qing Cheng, Xi Jiu Er is sorry, blame me, I loved Xi Jiu Er too much." The Prince Xian pushed open the door and left.


    Afterwards, he did not expect Prince Xian to commit suicide by taking poison, but fortunately, Shu Xin stopped him. She knocked him out with a vase after she saw it.


    Later, when Xi Jiu Er heard of it, she brought Dou Dou along to visit him in his room.


    "Godfather, why are you so stupid as to take poison and commit suicide? "Everything can be figured out, but why commit suicide? You''re courting death." "As soon as he walked in, he was immediately blamed." If you die, no one will play with Dou Dou anymore? Think about it, even if Little Bean didn''t have anyone to play with, Little Sister Qiu Xin and Little Sister Qiu Xin would not be able to do so without Father. Dou was worried for the others.


    "Prince Xian, what''s done is done, let''s not talk about it anymore. Since the child is already born, let''s do it this way, my child is also your child, he also calls you godfather, for the sake of the child''s peace of mind, to live on, they need you! "Stop trying to court death and do something stupid. These things are not the actions of a man. If you are doing these things, I will look down on you." Xi Jiu Er used a method to goad her.


    She had already thought about it. If the child was already born, why would she still insist on doing so? Since it was already a foregone conclusion, they could only walk to the front, not the back. They could only face it optimistically, and Xiao Dou had treated Feng Qing Cheng as his father since he was young. As long as they didn''t let him know that they couldn''t break this peaceful life, they could live quietly.


    Back then, I was in the wrong, but now that the child is so old, I don''t want to pursue the matter anymore. I can only say that I love you, that I love you forever, and that I will never give up on you. Even if you are only Feng Qing Cheng''s woman, I am willing to live for you and protect you until the end. Prince Xian was still persistent about this matter.


    "Whatever you want. As long as you don''t do anything stupid, it''s fine. We''ve been out for a long time and we''re about to return to the palace. Little Dou, good bye to your godfather." After saying that, Xi Jiu Er pulled Dou Dou and walked out of the room.


    "Godfather, goodbye. When you''re free, Little Dou will come visit you with Mother." Thinking back, I seem to understand mother''s conversation with godfather just now, I seem to understand a little, I don''t understand a little. But mother said that it''s better for a child to not know about it, so I believe mother. I would rather not know about it.


    After that, he almost became depressed, and rolled down in the attic. He fainted for over half a month, and was still pretending to lose memories, not having taken care of her at all. He had to properly compensate her since he was, after all, Feng Qing Cheng''s child, Feng Qing Cheng''s little princess.


    In the blink of an eye, the children grew up extremely fast, all of them had grown taller, becoming more sensible and sensible. Xi Jiu Er was very happy, after going through all these, the Prince Xian felt much better. Shu Xin told her that after everything that had happened, the Prince Xian had treated her very well and she was very happy. In fact, he wanted everyone to be happy!


    Unexpectedly, Feng Qing Cheng''s lips kissed down, and they started a new life, one that hadn''t slept for the entire night ¡­


    "Get up quickly! After changing our clothes, we will head out of the palace. " Feng Qing Cheng roared. Facing Xi Jiu Er who refused to get out of the bed even after so long, he couldn''t do anything to her.


    Finally, Xi Jiu Er saw that Feng Qing Cheng''s face was dark, so she quickly got up and killed her.


    After changing his clothes, Xi Jiu Er said that he wanted to take a look at their children. After all, it was the new year, so he wanted to give them a new blessing. Feng Qing Cheng was even more patient with her, he could only follow her.


    "Children, happy new year! My Queen Mother, I wish you all rapid growth! The longer the boy grew, the more handsome he became! The more beautiful the girl, the bigger the "little princess" became, and she subdued my son. "Then each of you will receive a red packet." Xi Jiu Er gave a red packet.


    "Thank you, Queen Mother!" Wishing the Queen Mother more and more beautiful! and royal father and beauty! Add your son Fatty as well, and we''ll have a few younger siblings in the sky. " was speechless facing the blessings of the children.


    "Esteemed Empress, the emperor has already been waiting for a long time. He asked how long it would take to leave the palace, and the emperor said he''s waiting for you outside. Hurry up and come out." Their father-in-law came to report that he had disturbed them.


    "What mother, you want to leave the palace ¡­ "Did you come to bring the children with you? I knew that it would be best for the Queen Mother to bring the Queen Mother with her every time we leave the palace. I love you." The children were excitedly talking.


    Xi Jiu Er immediately understood that she had done this on purpose. The purpose was to let his children know that it wasn''t every time they left the palace, and now that she was being questioned by her, they all thought that she was bringing them along.


    "En..." If you want to ask this question, your royal father will wait for me outside. I''m going out now. With that, Xi Jiu Er immediately left them behind and left.


    "Feng Qing Cheng, how can you tell them about us leaving the palace? Letting people in to report like that, isn''t that what you''re telling them? "Right now, they think that I''m extremely happy that I''m going to bring them out of the palace. When he finds out that I''m not going to bring them out of the palace, they will definitely be sad ¡­" Before Xi Jiu Er could finish his sentence, Feng Qing Cheng had already dragged her and ran away ¡­


    The reason the children came out, saw them, saw them running children ran after them.


    He shouted, "Imperial Mother said it was to be done, and brought us out of the palace. Imperial Father, Mother, where are you going? You can''t just leave the kids like this. " Feng Bao Zi, Feng Xie Dou, Feng Yao and Qiu Xin followed closely behind Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er.


    In Feng Qing Cheng''s room, a beautiful palace maid poured more wine for him and there were five incomparably beautiful dancers dancing around. All of them had their eyes glued onto Feng Qing''s body, unable to shift their gaze away from Feng Qing Cheng. Feng Qing Cheng poured wine cup by cup into his stomach, and the palace maids beside him silently poured cups after cups of wine, appearing extremely obedient.


    Gradually, her vision became more and more blurry. The faint fragrance of a young girl''s body beside her mixed with the smell of alcohol, instantly gave Feng Qingcheng an inexplicable impulse. Turning his head to look at the palace maid beside him, he saw that she was very obedient, and her appearance was also very pleasing. She obediently knelt down beside him to serve him. Xi Jiu Er liked this kind of servant girls. The truth was that her judgement was not bad, the servants she chose were all loyal and loyal.

 C487

    He smelt a light fragrance coming from the palace maid''s body. It was not strong, and was very similar to Jiu Er. His eyes started to blur as the palace maids in front of him gradually overlapped with Xi Jiu Er. He felt like he was drunk ¡­


    "Oh, I really want to!" Feng Qing Cheng closed his eyes and took in the lady''s Profound Spirit Qi with an intoxicated expression. When the palace maid heard this, his face immediately flushed red. His heart was filled with joy, but her eyes were also filled with shame and joy. When he felt his chin being lifted, the palace maid was immediately surprised and happy. Her eyes were sparkling with the color of spring, truly a budding flower.


    "Your majesty ¡ª" Feng Qing Cheng suddenly pressed her to the ground, as he stared down at the palace maid in a daze.


    Such a voice was filled with alluring power, causing Feng Qing Cheng''s head to instantly turn red. He stared at the palace maid below him as if he wanted to tear her into eight pieces and swallow her whole. The palace maid was both afraid and overjoyed as he bravely wrapped his arms around Feng Qing Cheng''s neck. This man was the Emperor, he was a godlike man.


    Feng Qing Cheng was completely confused by the palace maids'' voices, and the image of the other lady in his mind gradually filled up. With a swipe of his hand, the palace maid''s dress was ripped apart, revealing a large chunk of her bloodied skin. Feng Qing Cheng lowered his head and began to gnaw on the skin of the palace maid.


    "Your Majesty ¡­" "Don''t..."


    The eyes of the dancers were all filled with jealousy, but what could they do? They couldn''t at least run over to replace her. They wished that the woman lying on the ground was them. Hai, he could only quietly withdraw. Yet, at the entrance, he saw a woman with a beautiful face and an otherworldly temperament. The women dressed up in the palace were all very casual, but they were all very valuable. Currently, besides the empress, there was only one other imperial concubine in the imperial harem.


    It was said that this Imperial Concubine Ruan was extremely favored and carried the Emperor''s first child. Her status was naturally different. Xi Jiu Er saw that the girls were bowing to him, and were looking at him with their eyes, slightly unhappy. The eunuch at the side shouted: "What are you guys standing there for, quickly go out."


    When Feng Qing Cheng heard the voice outside, he immediately regained his senses. She was not Jiu Er, not Jiu Er. He actually considered someone else''s body as Jiu Er''s body? Although the skin of a person was smooth and tender, it was like the difference between heaven and earth when compared to Jiu Er. Every part of her body was filled with longing, as if she had been eating for a long time.


    Feng Qing Cheng stared at himself fiercely. Suddenly, he heard Xi Jiu Er''s cold voice, as usual, and anger rose up within him. Jiu Er, Jiu Er, you don''t care about me that much? I''m so sad for you, but what about you? He was still as cold to me, not even sparing himself a smile ¡­


    I want you pain, too. I want you pain. Feng Qing Cheng immediately thought of using his big hands to rip apart the palace maid''s clothes. The undergarment immediately appeared in front of him, it was made of cheap cloth and there was a rough flower embroidered on his hand. Feng Qing Cheng''s appetite fell as soon as he saw it, and due to his hearing, he heard Xi Jiu Er''s footsteps coming in. He went over to the palace maid''s ear and ordered: "Call me loudly, the louder the call, the easier it is for you to understand, okay?"


    "..." "The Emperor ¡­ the Emperor ¡­" The palace maid was frightened by Feng Qing Cheng''s pair of cold and aghast eyes. Feng Qing Cheng pinched her waist, and the palace maid immediately screamed out, crying as he thought about Feng Qing Cheng''s orders. "Your Majesty, it''s so painful ¡­ Servant... "


    "Does it hurt? "I just want you to feel pain ¡­" Out of the corner of her eyes, Feng Qing Cheng saw Xi Jiu Er standing next to the curtain. "Do you like me to mess with you like this?"


    "I like it... Your Majesty ¡­ Servant likes the emperor. The emperor wants the Servant, right? The palace maid didn''t understand what was going on. When he felt the powerful aura of the man on her body, her body couldn''t help but soften. His black hair, those large hands, his breathing ¡­ Everything made her go crazy for it.


    "Little demoness ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng smiled charmingly: "The taste of fresh women is still better, much better than that Jiu Er." As he said that, he made the palace maid follow what he said. The palace maid felt pain from his pinching, as he didn''t understand what he meant. He cried and asked: "Is Servant really as good as Imperial Concubine?"


    Even if she knew that Feng Qing Cheng''s words were fake, she was still happy.


    "Of course, the fact that I liked her and admired her in the past is a matter of the past. Right now, I don''t like her at all. Icy cold and heartless. I don''t have a hint of femininity and I don''t know how to please you." Feng Qing Cheng said while his heart was bleeding. He did not want to say it, but Jiu Er, why do you always have to hurt me like this? I''m going to hurt you now, too, to give you a taste of me.


    "The Emperor is the zodiac, all the beauties in the Wind Nation are yours. She''s just a woman, what''s the need for the Emperor to take things seriously?" The palace maid''s words came from the bottom of her heart. She did not say anything, just like what was in front of her, a woman who had already gone insane from love and adoration. Even though she was born a lowly palace maid, unlike those from famous Miss, her love did not lose to anyone.


    "That''s right. As the emperor, there should be three thousand beauties in the imperial harem. All the beauties in the world ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng said as he raised his head to see Xi Jiu Er slowly walking over, her face still as calm, without any hint of happiness or anger. When Feng Qing Cheng saw this, he was immediately angered. He crawled up and pointed at Xi Jiu Er: "What are you, from today onwards, I, Feng Qing Cheng, will no longer like you, nor will I give you another glance. It''s as if you are violating the rules of this table ¡­"


    With a palm strike, the table broke into two halves ¡­ He looked at Xi Jiu Er, and immediately bowed to Xi Jiu Er: "Servant greets Imperial Concubine."


    Although Xi Jiu Er did not say anything, nor did she have any expression, she still rushed in front of the palace maid in an instant, and knocked the palace maid down to the ground with a slap. The next scene shocked everyone.


    A crisp slap sounded out. The air in the hall seemed to have been sucked dry, and everyone''s breathing became hurried. Feng Qing Cheng looked at his hand in a daze. What, what did he do just now? He actually hit Jiu Er? He must have lost his mind, Jiu Er was his life, how could he bear to fight?


    Xi Jiu Er tilted his head and stared coldly ahead, slowly turning his head to stare straight at Feng Qing Cheng, his face was so calm that it looked as though she had not been slapped in the face. Only Feng Qing Cheng did not dare look at her, he was afraid.


    "Dong Zhu, let''s go." When Feng Qing Cheng heard her words, he immediately wanted to stop Xi Jiu Er, but he could not! He waited until the hall returned to silence before he slowly stretched out his hand and looked at his palm, his expression sluggish. The palace maid called out softly, "Your Majesty ¡­"


    "Scram!" Feng Qing Cheng roared: "Scram as far away as you can."


    "..." Yes, Servant, Servant will piss off now. " The palace maid quickly donned his clothes and ran, but he was already badly ripped by Feng Qing Cheng, he could only run around like a mouse.

 C488

    Feng Qing Cheng sat on the ground in disappointment, he closed his eyes while chewing on the meat. What had happened, what should he do? Apologize? But Xi Jiu Er''s temper was still on the verge of exploding ¡­ Forget it. It was best for them to calm down.


    Xi Jiu Er felt that her vision had blurred, and a tear was rolling down her cheek. She did not even hear Dong Zhu''s shouts from behind her. Feng Qing Cheng''s words pierced right into his heart. It hurt, it hurt!


    Xi Jiu Er ran for an unknown amount of time, she did not know where she was, and tears rolled down her face as a heart-wrenching pain filled her entire body. Dong Zhu ran over and hugged her immediately: "Empress, do not cry, the emperor is only saying these words in anger, you should not take it seriously."


    "Esteemed Empress, the Emperor likes you and loves you deeply. He was angered until he became muddle-headed ¡­"


    "Empress ¡­" Ah ¡­ "Esteemed Empress ¡­" Dong Zhu felt the woman in her arms soften and slide down. Before she could even hug him, Xi Jiu Er had already collapsed onto the ground, and she was so scared that she was at a loss for words, "Empress, Empress ¡­ Wake up, wake up. "


    There were no results from pinching his way through. Dong Zhu looked around and noticed that his surroundings were all ruins, and didn''t know where she had gotten to. With the current situation, she didn''t have time to think too much, "Empress, Servant will immediately go find someone."


    Feng Qing Cheng''s head was extremely dizzy, he lay on the ground and stared at the sky, not thinking at all. It made his brain feel like it was about to split open. Suddenly, Feng Qing Cheng heard the eunuch''s hurried footsteps: "Your majesty, it''s bad, Imperial Concubine fainted?"


    "Which Imperial Concubine?" Feng Qing Cheng blurted out.


    "Oh my lord, there''s still that Imperial Concubine in the palace!" Just as the eunuch finished speaking, he felt a gust of wind pass by him and he hurried to follow. "Your majesty, your majesty ¡­"


    When Feng Qing Cheng came to Xi Jiu Er''s room, Meng Ru Yan was also there. She asked with furrowed brows: "What did you do?" Without even thinking about it, the palm imprint on Xi Jiu Er''s face knows who hit him, is this person sick? He kept saying that Xi Jiu Er was his darling, but in the end, he said those words that hurt people, did his brain grow grass?


    Feng Qing Cheng remained silent and walked over. Seeing that Xi Jiu Er was lying motionlessly on the bed, and looked like she was sleeping, the imperial physician couldn''t find anything wrong for a long time and immediately pushed the imperial physician over.


    "Anger attacks the heart?" Feng Qing Cheng blurted out.


    Meng Ru Yan rolled his eyes and said, "If it was me, I would have died a light death without spitting blood. Since it was caused by you, you can decide on your own. Such a big guy is still talking nonsense like a child! " Meng Ru Yan snappily allowed the palace maid to hold his hand and carried him back, doing what he needed to do.


    Xi Jiu Er laid on the bed. She was very quiet, no longer cold like usual. Dong Zhu said in a low voice, "After the Empress came out, she kept running and then cried. She fainted just by crying."


    "Is she crying?" Feng Qing Cheng''s heart ached. He didn''t do it on purpose, he really didn''t do it on purpose. He wanted to slap himself.


    Dong Zhu nodded her head: "Yes, the Empress looks cold, and might be offended, but she is not good at expressing it."


    "I can see that she treats the Prince Xian extremely well. The two of us are talking and laughing, and her attitude is completely different from mine. We are also human beings, and flesh and blood. Feng Qing Cheng felt that she was like a complaining water, who knew what he was going through?


    "Prince Xian always says that the Empress is an ungrateful person. But with the Empress''s personality, she is very good to the Servant, and to the people around her. " Dong Zhu teared up, "Your Majesty, don''t bully the Empress ¡­ It''s very hard for the Empress to be alone. "


    "We ¡­" Feng Qing Cheng felt like he was at a loss for words. Seeing the unconscious Xi Jiu Er, how could he feel any better? ''This girl has always been someone who doesn''t seem to be able to cover her emotions, ''he thought.'' She''s heartless and heartless! ''


    "Dou Ya, am I your biological brother?" With a round face and a pair of big eyes that flickered, the little boy had just ran over from afar. She was panting heavily as she looked at the boy who was about the same height as him, and her mouth twitched in dissatisfaction. "Why didn''t royal father speak up for me when he was punishing me?"


    Feng Dou Ya looked at Feng Bao Zi who was standing in front of her, a look of confusion flashing across her beautiful face as she stared at Feng Bao Zi in a daze.


    "Forget it, forget it." A look of helplessness flashed across Feng Bao Zi''s face as he used his hand to support his head and shook his head, mimicking his mother''s actions, "You will be tricked and taken away by others this way. The bad guys like to trick beautiful children like you."


    With that, Feng Bao Zi stood on his tiptoes and gently rubbed Feng Dou Ya''s head with her hand. The little adult''s appearance made the little eunuch beside him laugh.


    "Yes, I know." Feng Dou Ya started laughing, the corners of her mouth raised, as she looked at Feng Bao Zi and solemnly nodded, "Thank you big brother."


    "Good boy." Feng Bao Zi held onto Feng Dou Ya''s hand, a crafty look flashing past her eyes, as she pulled along, and walked in the direction where she had just come from, "Dou Ya, I treat you so well, so you will write big words for me, right? Right? "


    That big scoundrel father, wasn''t he just making a joke with the tutor? He was actually punished to write a hundred big words. Did he think that he had no other choice?


    On the second day, Feng Bao Zi handed over the fruits of their hard work to the Imperial Tutor the moment he saw him. He pursed his lips and stood in front of the Imperial Tutor obediently, "Tutor, I was wrong. I won''t joke with you anymore."


    His voice was soft, and had a hint of a cry. The long advanced in age naturally could not endure Feng Bao Zi''s coquettish actions, as he casually flipped through the hundred words in front of him, ignoring the two completely different words on it, he turned his head to look at Feng Bao Zi who was standing beside him without uttering a single word. "The First Prince is too serious, what happened yesterday is just a misunderstanding.


    "A misunderstanding is a misunderstanding. The Imperial Tutor was indeed as smart as Imperial Father and Mother said, so the Imperial Tutor must remember to explain it to Imperial Father. This is just a joke between the two of us."


    Before the honored tutor finished speaking, Feng Bao Zi had already opened his mouth to interrupt him. The current him no longer had the depressed look on his face, but instead, his eyes were like crescent moons because of his smile, the upturned corners of his mouth signalling that his master was in a good mood.


    Although Feng Bao Zi and Feng Bao Zi were brothers, their personalities were completely different. Feng Bao Zi could simply be called the Demon King of the imperial palace, but there was nothing he didn''t want to do, and there was nothing he didn''t dare to do. With his crafty face and his habit of acting cute, in the entire imperial palace, other than Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er, no one could suppress him.


    "First Prince ¡­" The Imperial Tutor was choked by Feng Bao Zi''s words and his face flushed red. He pointed at Feng Bao Zi with his trembling hands and in the end, simply gave up on himself and turned away.


    Feng Dou Ya took the chance to take a bite of the pastries that the mama had secretly hidden away in her body in the morning. Noticing that the atmosphere was not right, she raised her eyes to size up the two people on the table, then lowered her head and continued to eat his pastries.

 C489

    Feng Bao Zi pretended not to understand the Imperial Tutor''s words. With a smile that was like a flower, he moved closer to the Imperial Tutor and revealed his objective. "Imperial Tutor, it''s just because you misunderstood me yesterday that Imperial Father was angered yesterday.


    With an expression full of "It''s all your fault, that''s how I became like this", the Imperial Tutor found it even more inappropriate to swallow, and even more so to vomit.


    However, how could Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er not know of his little scheme? They hung him for two days, and in the end, only the night before their departure, did they teach him the meaning of "nine words in one word".


    "Dou Ya, tell me, are royal father and mother bad people?" Feng Bao Zi sat opposite to Feng Dou Ya with a plate of pastries in her hands, staring at him.


    Xi Jiu Er was worried that these children would not be digested if they ate too much, so she strictly controlled his diet. Seeing the pastries in Feng Bao Zi''s hands, he didn''t hesitate at all, and started to eat little by little like a chick eating rice.


    Satisfied, he pushed the plate towards Feng Dou Ya, who was lying on the bed weakly. Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er had left early in the morning, and the entire palace only had the two of them, which was simply punishment for Feng Bao Zi who liked to play.


    How about they also...


    Feng Bao Zi''s eyes lit up, he pursed his lips, his young and tender face was stiff, his brows knitted tightly as he looked at the palace maid nanny outside, suddenly moving closer to Feng Dou Ya, and muttered: "Dou Ya, the two of us will leave the palace to privately interview each other, what do you think? There are many delicious foods outside the palace, which are even more delicious than the pastries Aunt Cai cooks. "


    "Really?" Hearing that there was something delicious to eat, Feng Dou Ya''s eyes suddenly widened, but he quickly returned to her normal self.


    Her beautiful facial features were squeezed together tightly, just like a bun with a face full of wrinkles.


    "Who said we were going to run away from home?" Feng Bao Zi''s hand tightly gripped onto Feng Dou Ya''s sleeves as he rolled his eyes, "Let''s send a letter to Imperial Father and Mother to inform them, then we won''t be running away from home. Once we leave the palace, we can go eat the pastries that you still eat, and we can even go to Prince Xian."


    Although they rarely returned to the palace, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were completely unfamiliar with him. Every once in a while, the Prince Xian would send someone over to give them gifts, which were all fun and interesting toys and strange things that the two of them liked very much.


    Upon hearing Prince Xian''s name, Feng Dou Ya did not hesitate any longer, pursed her lips and laughed embarrassedly, then nodded at Feng Bao Zi, "Brother, you must remember to buy me some pastries, and also see Prince Xian."


    "Mhmm, don''t worry." Once the problem was solved, Feng Bao Zi''s tiny body slid down from the bed. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, she turned to Feng Dou Ya and continued: "Tonight, pack up and wait for me. When the time comes, I will come to fetch you.


    After instructing Feng Dou Ya, Feng Bao Zi ran out like a gust of wind. He still had many things to prepare, the Queen Mother said that if she wanted to do something good, she must first take advantage of the situation.


    The night was quiet, and the starlight was sparse. A small figure quickly moved along with the faint starlight. Not long after, he stopped at a window.


    Feng Bao Zi stepped on the stone and her meaty little hand gently knocked on the window. After a while, the window was opened from the inside, and Feng Dou Ya''s head popped out. She hung on the window, and when she saw Feng Bao Zi, her eyes lit up.


    I have eyes to see you here.


    Panting heavily, Feng Bao Zi rolled his eyes and looked around vigilantly. After making sure that no one was around, he looked up and asked, "Where''s your bag? "Hurry up and take it out, I''ll catch it for you."


    Just as Feng Bao Zi finished speaking, Feng Dou Ya''s figure had already disappeared. After a long while, a big red bundle was thrown out without any warning, striking right at Feng Bao Zi''s head.


    "Feng Dou Ya, you did it on purpose." Feng Bao Zi squatted on the ground, covering her head, and looked at Feng Dou Ya who had popped out of the hole once again with teary eyes. But when she saw that Feng Dou Ya''s face, which was obviously excessively beautiful, was filled with helplessness, Feng Bao Zi could only silently acknowledge her misfortune in her heart, "Alright, alright, I''ll forgive you this time, hurry up and jump out, I''ll catch you."


    Pushing his hands apart, Feng Bao Zi stood under the window, raised his head and looked at Feng Dou Ya, giving him a "don''t be afraid" look and no longer speaking.


    "Then I''m coming down." Feng Dou Ya''s trust in Feng Bao Zi came to a baffling, as she changed her posture to sit on the window, and looked at the people below him before jumping down.


    "Ah ¡ª ¡ª" Feng Dou Ya sat on the ground, and just as she was about to cry out, Feng Bao Zi stomped over and covered his mouth.


    Feng Bao Zi squatted on the ground and looked Feng Dou Ya in the eye, then said: "If you continue to shout, then we will be discovered, and at that time, I won''t be able to buy you pastries, and I won''t be able to bring you to look for the Prince Xian, so are you still going to shout?"


    Her beautiful face scrunched up, and her teary eyes stared at Feng Bao Zi. She first nodded, then shook her head, and only then did Feng Bao Zi slowly let go of her hand.


    "You lied to me again." Dou Ya frowned, and looked at Feng Bao Zi in dissatisfaction: "Brother, didn''t you say you would take me?"


    What was extremely inconsistent with Feng Dou Ya''s pretty and smart appearance was his personality. Although his honest personality was not stupid, she was still bullied by Feng Bao Zi every single time.


    "Accident, accident." Feng Bao Zi first tied his own bag onto his back, then picked up Feng Dou Ya''s bright red bag with one hand, using his extended hands to rub his head, "Dou Ya is the most obedient, when you come back you can go and complain to royal father, and let me be punished, right?"


    He was just being honest and not stupid, was royal father''s punishment not enough?


    Feng Dou Ya curled her lips, and followed behind Feng Bao Zi obediently.


    When Feng Qing Cheng received the news, it was already the morning of the second day. And this was even because they had not left for too long already, so Feng Qing Cheng could only helplessly hand over the letter which was said to be written by Feng Bao Zi himself to the side, "If you knew earlier, it would have been better if you had brought him along with you.


    "What nonsense." After skimming through the letter, Xi Jiu Er''s expression changed, "What if something happens to them?"


    Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had been smart since they were young. Other than that, Feng Bao Zi had also gained a little bit of intelligence and darkness, but no matter how smart he was, it couldn''t change the fact that they were only five years old. Xi Jiu Er stood up and said, "No, I need to go back and look for them first."

 C490

    "You." Feng Qing Cheng held onto Xi Jiu Er''s hand, the usually strong but now revealed a look of panic. Feng Qing Cheng could understand Xi Jiu Er''s thoughts, as a parent, it was probably the same, "Don''t worry, the child has a secret guard, so nothing will happen to him."


    So what if Xi Jiu Er was concerned? Now that Feng Qing Cheng had reminded him, he himself also remembered, but he didn''t dare to completely relax in his heart.


    I hope nothing happens to the two of them...


    Chapter 2


    Feng Bao Zi leaned against the wall, and a red bag was thrown beside his feet, but when he saw Feng Dou Ya looking over, he unhappily raised his leg and lightly kicked him, "Is this what you meant by important matter? "I brought one set of clothes, but the rest are all pastries. Are you afraid that I won''t give you anything along the way, or do you think it''s time for you to come out of your little vault?"


    Although Feng Bao Zi bullied Little Dou Ya quite a few times, and would pull him along no matter what they did, and use her obedient face to push him towards Feng Dou Ya, in the depths of his heart, Feng Bao Zi still cared a lot about Dou Ya. At the very least, she would secretly send him some food when he wanted to eat but couldn''t.


    As a result, at such a young age, Feng Dou Ya already had her own little treasury.


    "Brother, I''ll give you half." Feng Dou Ya sat on the ground, and with quick movements, she opened the package. What entered her eyes was a bag of pastries, although a little broken, the color was not bad, Feng Dou Ya graciously took out three bags of pastries and passed them to Feng Bao Zi, "These are all made by Aunt Cai, doesn''t brother like them too?"


    With his delicate face facing the sky, Feng Bao Zi sighed helplessly. Although he was worried about his little brother being bullied, he had to admit that he was still moved to have such a caring little brother.


    "Come, big brother will take you to eat." Feng Bao Zi waved his hand and looked at Feng Dou Ya boldly.


    He was secretly pleased in his heart, unlike Feng Dou Ya who only brought some useless things, she did not bring them. Before they left, he had already made inquiries and was very familiar with the route, so she brought Feng Dou Ya to the front of a tavern, "Little Dou Ya, let''s go in for lunch first. After we finish eating, we''ll hire a horse carriage to travel by.


    "Alright."


    Glancing at Feng Dou Ya''s face that was filled with worship, even the precocious and intelligent Feng Bao Zi could not help but feel proud. She raised her hand and patted his head, "Let''s go, let''s go in."


    "You two ¡­" The moment Feng Bao Zi stepped into the restaurant with Feng Dou Ya, a waiter came up to welcome them. When he saw the two little people in front of him, he was slightly startled, although he was shocked for a moment, but he still maintained his composure and asked while bending down, "Are the two little guests going to the top or staying in the inn?


    "Just the two of us." Feng Bao Zi tightly gripped Feng Dou Ya and felt his fear. He lightly squeezed Dou Ya''s hand at an angle that no one could see, and continued to speak without pause: "The two of us are going to eat. Arrange a private room for me and bring out all the best dishes here."


    "Don''t worry, we have money."


    Although there were no women scheming and scheming, every single one of the eunuchs and maids beside them had their own thoughts. Under the careful nurturing of Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er, both Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were not those kind of children who only knew how to read books.


    Feng Bao Zi could tell what the waiter was worried about with a single glance. He was not anxious at all, just like an adult, with his hands behind his back and his chin held high, "Are you still not going to leave?"


    The two children were more exquisite, especially the one behind them. Although they hid behind the first child, they could still see his beauty from the side.


    The waiter''s gaze swept over the two of them a few times as he thought about it. After a few seconds of silence, he made up his mind and stretched out his hand towards the stairs, "Alright, please go upstairs. Be careful when you go upstairs."


    "You can leave now. Bring up all the best dishes in your restaurant for us brothers to have a taste." The moment he entered the room, Feng Bao Zi waved towards the waiter. When the two of them were the only ones left in the room, Feng Bao Zi then snorted lightly, looked at Feng Dou Ya who had already unknowingly climbed onto the window, and rolled her eyes, "Sit properly, the tutor often says that the human heart is the most unfathomable object.


    "Alright." Feng Dou Ya was not only well-behaved, but also very obedient. She immediately returned to''s side, sat down obediently, and took the pastries hidden in her bosom and started to eat.


    Feng Bao Zi did not pay attention to him, her two big eyes flickered, vigilantly sizing up the surroundings of the room. After a long while, she did not discover anything wrong, and took out the gold leaf that she had hidden on her body earlier from her sleeve.


    Although he did not have money, he had a period of time a year ago that allowed him to be especially obedient. Xi Jiu Er had intentionally given him a bag of golden leaves, while Feng Bao Zi, who was extremely intelligent, had purposely given it to him and wrapped it around his body.


    "Miss, this Miss, I am not lying to you. There is no room in the shop anymore." Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had not even waited for their food when they heard the waiter''s voice from outside the private box.


    The two of them looked at each other, but before they could figure out what was going on, the private room''s door they were in was forced open by someone, their delicate face had a look of confusion, Feng Bao Zi''s and Feng Dou Ya''s gaze landed on the person who just appeared.


    The woman in the lead folded her arms across her chest as she grabbed a long brown whip. She looked around the room with an embarrassed expression, her face changed as she suddenly pushed aside the waiter in front and stomped into the room, "Heh, I thought there was already a guest already in the room, but even if you don''t want to do my business, you don''t need to find two brats to trick me, right? Is it that easy to deceive this aunt? "


    The woman was not very old, but a trace of anger flashed across her young face, and even the gaze that she looked at Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya with became unfriendly.


    The woman''s gaze stopped on the faces of Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya, a look of shock flashing past her eyes, she did not expect the two children to actually look good, but the cute two children actually lied to her like in the restaurant, causing the girl to hate them.


    "Hey, who are you? Why did you come into our room?"


    Feng Dou Ya laid on the table, glancing at Feng Bao Zi out of the corner of his eyes, seeing that he had not moved, he jumped down from the chair and ran over to the lady, looking at her unhappily.

 C491

    "Heh, you helped them trick me, yet you don''t even know my identity?" The woman crossed her arms across her chest and passed the whip to the servant girl behind her. She then squatted down and said to Feng Dou Ya, "Since you two are young, I''ll let you two go this time. Hurry up and vacate the private box for me. I want to use it."


    Although Feng Dou Ya was simple and honest, it didn''t mean that she was stupid. The first thing he noticed was that something was wrong, and followed the woman''s gaze and stared back at her, "You still haven''t told me who you really are."


    "Tsk, what an interesting kid." The lady pursed her lips and laughed, "I''ll just tell you then, I am the Yang family''s Great Miss, Yang Qin."


    The Yang family was not some powerful family, they were just a businessman, but the Great Miss of the Yang family was the only son of the Yang family for the third generation. He was out doing business with his elders at such a young age, and did not look like a girl at all.


    Although he would receive compensation, but no matter how big the restaurant was, it wouldn''t be able to endure three or four times a month. As time passed, Yang Qin would naturally become the underworld of the various restaurants.


    "Then you misunderstand." With such good manners, Feng Bao Zi could only frown. He walked closer to the two people who spoke and pulled Feng Dou Ya behind him. He nodded at Yang Qin, "We are indeed the guests of this house.


    With that, Feng Bao Zi took out the gold leaf he had just put in, and the two gold leaves laid on his hands. He looked at Yang Qin and frowned, "See, we have the ability to eat here."


    The commotion on the second floor had long attracted everyone''s attention, and many people were pointing and talking, but when they saw Feng Bao Zi happily take out the two golden leaves, they were startled, and then their expressions changed, as the sounds of discussion became louder and louder.


    Feng Bao Zi acted as if he did not hear everyone''s voices, he calmly nodded at Yang Qin and pulled Feng Dou Ya along to walk back. When they passed by the waiter, he frowned, "Let''s order the dishes quickly." We have work to do.


    Her pink and tender face however, assumed a serious expression. She explained the situation on her side in a few sentences clearly, which improved Yang Qin''s impression of these two little fellows by quite a bit.


    Yang Qin stood up, and glared at the waiter, "Looks like you guys are being honest this time, since there''s a guest, I''ll choose another one."


    Taking the whip that the servant handed to him, Yang Qin swung it fiercely towards the ground. Looking at the frightened crowd, she smiled and said, "Aren''t you guys going to leave if you''re so afraid?"


    Raising her chin, she shot a disdainful sneer at the crowd. Yang Qin turned around and led her people down the stairs, although she had a violent temper and her entire body was filled with her own arrogance, she was not an unreasonable person and was not willing to pester anyone too much.


    After settling the trouble that randomly came looking for them, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya finally tasted the legendary delicacies. Feng Bao Zi patted his plump belly, looked at Feng Dou Ya who was still continuing to eat, and curled her lips, "Don''t eat so much. If you only eat for a while longer, then you won''t have a share of delicious food."


    Just as Feng Bao Zi finished speaking, the chopsticks in his hand had already been placed on the table, and Feng Dou Ya sat upright on his chair, staring straight at Feng Bao Zi with his eyes shining without blinking, his face filled with meaning, really?


    "Let''s go, let''s find Prince Xian for the next stop."


    Feng Bao Zi brought Feng Dou Ya and swaggered out of the restaurant, but did not notice the two pairs of sneaky eyes staring straight at them.


    "Do you two young masters want a car?" Feng Bao Zi pulled Feng Dou Ya and strolled aimlessly on the streets. Just when he could not resist wanting to find someone to ask about the way, a horse carriage stopped beside them.


    Feng Bao Zi looked in the direction of the voice and saw the grey robed carriage driver with a black mole at the corner of his mouth.


    A poor man.


    Feng Bao Zi looked at the driver from head to toe, he did not even let go of the small details on the tiger''s hand, and did not dare to relax his guard, he pulled Feng Dou Ya by the hand and slowly took a step back, "We do not need a carriage now, you can go."


    "Hey, gongzi, don''t be angry." The coachman''s face suddenly changed, he looked at Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya imploringly, and jumped down from the carriage. Soon after, another person came out from the carriage, and two middle aged men surrounded Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya.


    "Who are you people? "What do you want to do?" Feng Bao Zi bit his lips, a look of panic flashing past his eyes, but he quickly stabilized himself. He looked around at the people who were looking at them from time to time, and with an idea in his mind, he shouted at them, "We do not know you, what are you doing?"


    One of them also raised his voice and shouted: "My little ancestor, you and Master''s wife are at loggerheads, you can''t just leave home without a word. Now that you two are sick, Great Young Master''s Second Young Master, you two quickly follow me back, don''t cause any more trouble."


    The moment those words were spoken, everyone nodded in understanding. From the way they were dressed, they seemed to be the young masters and servants of a wealthy family. Plus, they had spoken before, so they probably knew each other.


    The two middle-aged men seized the opportunity to pull each other onto the carriage. The two brothers'' hands that were tightly holding each other had already been forcefully separated.


    Feng Bao Zi tried to struggle free a few times but to no avail. He lowered his head, grabbed hold of the trafficker''s hand and bit down, then took the opportunity to turn around and run. Behind him, Feng Dou Ya''s wails, curses, and footsteps were mixed together.


    He needed to hurry up and find someone to save Dou Ya.


    Right now, the only thought in Feng Bao Zi''s mind was to quickly return to the palace and find the guards to save Feng Dou Ya. He did not know how long he had been running for, but the footsteps behind him had already disappeared.


    "Huh?"


    Feng Bao Zi felt as if he had bumped into a person, but was blocked by the other party''s hand, and raised his head, only to see Yang Qin, who he had only met once, standing right in front of him. Obviously, Yang Qin recognized Feng Bao Zi, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and his two hands grabbed onto Feng Bao Zi''s shoulders, "Why is it that after a while, you''re dirty all over, and why are you the only one left? And the other one? "


    "Dou Ya." Feng Bao Zi''s eyes reddened, and his dirty face was cut open from how he fell. He reached back and grabbed Yang Qin''s hand, "I beg you, please save Dou Ya, he''s been captured by the bad guy."


    "What?" There''s actually a trafficker here? " Yang Qin carried Feng Bao Zi and said, "Lead the way big sister. I do want to see who it is that has dared to offend me today."

 C492

    After pacifying Feng Bao Zi, Yang Qin looked at the servants behind him and casually pointed at them, "Go and report to the officials. On the way, go and bring all the guards out.


    Since he was young, he had followed his grandfather to learn how to do business. He had managed things independently for a few years, so even though she was young, he had thought everything through, and after instructing the servants, he did not dare stay any longer. Carrying Feng Bao Zi, he ran in the direction he pointed to.


    By the time they returned to the place where the incident had occurred, the carriage that had stopped there had already disappeared without a trace.


    "Elder sister, Dou Ya ¡­" Feng Bao Zi''s hand tightly gripped onto Yang Qin''s clothes, as her face turned pale, "Dou Ya is gone."


    "I''m fine, I''m fine. Don''t worry, big sister will help you find Dou Ya, okay?" Yang Qin patted Feng Bao Zi as she turned to look at the servants behind him, "Go and ask the surrounding people, there will always be people who will see where the carriage is headed to."


    "Yes."


    The servants dispersed in all directions. This had just happened not long ago, and the surrounding shops had all noticed that the carriage was leaving in the direction of the east city.


    "Bring our carriages to the east of the city."


    Yang Qin was out to negotiate business this time, and the carriage was right behind them. Upon hearing the order, they all followed, "Miss."


    Yang Qin pulled Feng Bao Zi along as they stood not far away from a quiet little courtyard. After a moment of hesitation, they asked with a tone of discussion, "Little guy, big sister has been sent in to scout out out the location for a long time, but we have to wait for the helpers to come in before we can move, okay?"


    Hearing Yang Qin''s words, Feng Bao Zi looked up at her, and after being silent for a while, he nodded his head seriously, "Elder sister, I will listen to you, as long as it can save Dou Ya, it''s fine."


    At a place where no one else could see, Feng Bao Zi tightly clenched one of his hands, and held the fingernail in his hand. Only then could he tell himself to calm down over and over again. Although he bullied Feng Dou Ya often and if he caused a disaster, the blame would be placed on Feng Dou Ya, he was still the person who protected Dou Ya the most.


    Dou Ya was the one who was most afraid of the dark and would even starve.


    Thinking about Feng Dou Ya''s situation, Feng Bao Zi''s eyes filled with tears, gritting her teeth, forcing herself not to cry.


    Even though Yang Qin was talking with a servant, her attention was always on the little fellow. Seeing this scene, her heart soured as she silently squeezed Feng Bao Zi''s hand.


    In order to protect Yang Qin''s safety, the Yang family had chosen servants that had some foundation in martial arts. It was possible for them to go to other houses to work as guards, but very quickly, the people who went to scout the road would return, "Miss, the carriage that the little gongzi mentioned is right in front of the courtyard. There are a total of eleven or twelve children, but I don''t know which one is the little gongzi that we''re looking for ¡­"


    "The most beautiful one." Feng Bao Zi interrupted the servant and said: "The one who is as beautiful as a little girl is Dou Ya."


    "Beautiful ¡­" The servant frowned and pondered for a moment, then nodded, "If you want to find a pretty girl, there is indeed one who looks about five or six years old."


    Once the servant said that, Feng Bao Zi''s eyes lit up, his bright and big eyes stared wide, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he was so happy that Feng Bao Zi did not notice the servant''s hesitant look.


    Yang Qin handed Feng Bao Zi to the people behind him, and brought the servants to walk towards a corner. After confirming that Feng Bao Zi could not hear their voices, she retracted her gaze, and frowned, "What else do you want?"


    "Miss, aside from the two traffickers we know, there are seven other thugs, and ¡­" The servant paused for a moment, worry filling his brows. "I don''t know if the people inside have already found our tracks. When I went in, I found them packing up their things and preparing to leave."


    "What?" Yang Qin''s eyes widened, her eyes filled with shock. "This group of bastards, it seems they wanted to force this aunt to give them a good show."


    On their side, there were only six people including Feng Bao Zi, but the other side had nine, with seven of them being henchmen. Yang Qin pursed her lips, as her gaze slowly landed on Feng Bao Zi, not knowing what to do. However, the longer a five or six-year-old child stayed in there, the more likely things would get out of hand. If there was even the slightest accident, the little guy would be extremely sad, Yang Qin did not dare imagine it.


    On the other side, Feng Dou Ya was tightly hugging her legs as she sat on the ground. The small room was filled with children, ranging from three to four years old, with both boys and girls present. At this moment, most of their eyes were focused on Feng Dou Ya.


    "Were you all captured by them?" There was someone standing at the door, and a figure imprinted on it. Feng Dou Ya suppressed her voice and did not dare to speak loudly, as she approached a frail little girl beside him and asked in a low voice.


    The little girl''s face was yellow, she looked like she was six or seven years old, and just like Feng Dou Ya''s movements, she was tightly hugging her legs, her body trembling in fear. Her attention was originally on Feng Dou Ya''s body, but when she heard the voice, she immediately turned her head over and looked timidly at Feng Dou Ya. Only after a long while did she silently nod her head.


    Feng Dou Ya''s eyes were already filled with tears, but there was not a single drop that fell. After receiving the reply, she lowered his head, placed it on her knees, and repeatedly told herself in her heart that she was not afraid.


    Feng Bao Zi was disobedient, their mother would definitely scare the bun like that, but Feng Bao Zi would not fall for it the more times, but Feng Dou Ya never thought that she would meet her again one day. Feng Bao Zi''s delicate face was currently covered in dust. Both of her hands were tightly clenched as a trace of determination flashed across her face.


    His father once said that a boy must be strong. He believed that his elder brother would definitely come to save him, and his mother was also very powerful.


    "Creaak."


    The room''s door was pushed open, Feng Dou Ya raised her head and looked, only to see the two middle-aged men who brought him here, the two middle aged men also saw him, the man with black mole on her face looked around the hut, and suddenly raised her hand and pointed at Feng Dou Ya, "He, it''s this little fellow, carry him into the carriage."


    Just as Yang Qin was considering whether she should tell Feng Bao Zi or not, the Yang Mansion''s guards rushed over. After receiving the news, Yang Qin''s eyes lit up, and she immediately ordered everyone to surround the courtyard.

 C493

    "Elder sister, can I go with you?" Feng Bao Zi ran to Yang Qin''s side at an unknown time, her tiny hands tightly gripped onto Yang Qin''s clothes. "I want to save Feng Dou Ya, Dou Ya will be afraid by herself."


    Yang Qin knew that the trafficker had already discovered that something was amiss. He wanted to escape through the back door, while instructing people to pay attention to the situation inside, he would also personally go to the back door to wait for the trafficker to come out. Blades and swords had no eyes, these people all had weapons in their hands. If they were injured ¡­


    Seeing Feng Bao Zi''s pitiful look, Yang Qin''s heart softened. He sighed helplessly and nodded in the end, "I can bring you along, but at that time, you''re not allowed to run around randomly, or else we won''t be able to save Feng Dou Ya."


    "Alright." Feng Bao Zi solemnly nodded, he knew the severity of this matter.


    Seeing that Feng Bao Zi had agreed to it, Yang Qin did not hesitate anymore. He pulled a horse, jumped onto it, and then ordered someone to carry Feng Bao Zi up.


    Although she had practiced a few moves from a young age, Feng Bao Zi''s weight was still there. A five-year-old child, on the other hand, looked like a seven-year-old boy, and it was hard for Yang Qin to move while hugging him.


    The two of them quickly shook off the guards behind them and rushed to the back door. Just as they stopped, Yang Qin opened her mouth and was about to ask about the situation, there was a sudden movement at the door.


    The back door opened without any warning, and two or three thugs rushed out. As soon as they got in, a carriage ran out and headed for the city gate before anyone could react.


    "Dou Ya." Feng Bao Zi who was in Yang Qin''s embrace suddenly shouted out, he pointed at the carriage and anxiously pulled at Yang Qin''s clothes, "Sister, it''s Dou Ya, Dou Ya, I saw him just now."


    "Chase!"


    With that said, Yang Qin carried Feng Bao Zi with one hand and pulled the reins with the other. The horse quickly galloped away.


    Soon, they were out of the city and down the main road.


    Yang Qin quickly caught up to the carriage in front, and the curtain was lifted up by the wind, causing Yang Qin, who was inside the carriage, to see someone tightly tied up, her body swaying left and right following the carriage, but was unable to get off the carriage because of the person she was tied to.


    "Stop." Yang Qin rode the horse carriage side by side, pointing the whip at the carriage driver, "If you don''t stop, I will make my move."


    The driver was the man with a black mole on the corner of his mouth that Feng Bao Zi had described earlier. The man with black mole glared at Yang Qin fiercely.


    Seeing that the driver didn''t take his words seriously, Yang Qin sneered, and muttered to himself: "If I don''t teach you a lesson, do you really think I will be easily bullied?"


    Everything happened so suddenly, only Yang Qin managed to catch up and leave the rest far behind. Yang Qin looked at the empty space behind and knew that she could only rely on herself for now, without wasting her breath, she raised her hand and swung the whip in her hand towards the driver''s face.


    Because he liked the whip, Yang Qin did not spend too much effort. The other end of the whip, as if it had grown eyes, directly flew towards the black mole man''s face.


    "Damn." Yang Qin was only able to stop after dodging two whips. However, at this time, the man with the black mole had already been angered, and was staring at Yang Qin and Feng Bao Zi with her snake like eyes. Yang Qin was startled.


    The carriage stopped.


    Yang Qin secretly heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, her plan had succeeded, otherwise, Yang Qin really wouldn''t know how to make a move.


    "Little bitch, you really think that I''m afraid of you? Heh, since you''ve delivered it to my doorstep, I, your grandfather, will accept it. The man with the black mole narrowed his eyes, staring at Yang Qin and Feng Bao Zi with a gloomy face. When his gaze landed on Yang Qin, a trace of light flashed past his eyes.


    "Heh." Yang Qin got off the horse with Feng Bao Zi in her arms and tightened her grip on the whip, "If you want to die, I''ll personally send you on your way."


    The moment they realized something was wrong, they realized that they had caught someone they shouldn''t have, and now, because of him, the lair that they had worked so hard to build for a few years was gone just like that. At this moment, the man with the black mole had the urge to kill all three of them in order to vent his anger, but these two little fellows could sell a good person with a single look. Since things had developed to this point, they could only salvage a little bit of the damage and that was the reason why they brought Feng Dou Ya out.


    Feng Bao Zi didn''t know what the man with the mole was thinking. He pinched Yang Qin''s hand until she lowered her head and said, "Be careful, big sister."


    "Alright, go to the side." Yang Qin released Feng Bao Zi''s hand and raised his chin.


    Although her reputation was not good outside, she still had the heart of a female hero in her heart. She held the whip in her hand, and her eyes were fixed on the man in front of her, constantly on the alert.


    The man with the black mole sneered. He took out a dagger from his bosom. "So you''re actually a little chili. Not bad. You''ll be following me from now on."


    With that said, he rushed towards Yang Qin.


    Yang Qin knew where her weakness was, and didn''t dare to let the man with the mole come forward. She instantly swung the whip in her hand, one whip after the other, striking towards the man with the black mole. Not a single whip missed, and in a short period of time, the man with the black mole was covered in whip scars.


    "You''re courting death." The man who wanted to capture Hei Zhi was enraged. He glared fiercely at Yang Qin, a trace of killing intent flashing through her eyes.


    The dagger in his hand was thrown towards Yang Qin. The two of them were not very far away, and with the addition of the black mole man''s accurate dagger, the dagger flew straight towards Yang Qin. Yang Qin was shocked, she bent his body backwards and bent down, the dagger brushing past her body.


    "Big sister, be careful."


    Yang Qin suddenly shouted from the side of the road. Yang Qin was startled, she had just avoided a calamity and stood up straight, but she realized that something was wrong. At this moment, the man with black mole had already rushed over, raising his fist high into Yang Qin''s face.


    Am I going to die?


    Yang Qin was startled, but his hands didn''t stop moving. She subconsciously swung the whip in his hands, but the whip that she originally wanted to hit the man with the mole was used up all of her strength and wrapped around the man with the mole''s neck because of Yang Qin''s daze.


    Collect.


    As the whip retracted, the man with black mole who was about to rush over suddenly fell to the ground due to standing unsteadily. His head directly smashed into a big rock at Yang Qin''s feet, causing blood to flow out from his head.

 C494

    "Don''t... "Don''t come over." Yang Qin stood in her place in a daze. Seeing that Feng Bao Zi was about to rush over, she immediately opened her mouth to stop him.


    His finger trembled in fright as he placed it under the nose of the black mole man. After a long while, Yang Qin looked up at Feng Bao Zi in disbelief, "Dead, what should he do? If he is dead, will I be arrested? "


    The whip in Yang Qin''s hand had fallen to the ground long ago, as she sat listlessly on the ground. Although she usually had a violent temper, that was mostly because of her, the Yang family only had her, her daughter''s family''s business was already looked down upon by others. In order to not be bullied, Yang Qin pretended to be a tyrant from the very start.


    But in reality, she had never killed anyone before.


    "I haven''t killed anyone yet."


    The moment Feng Bao Zi walked closer, he heard Yang Qin''s low mutter. He was startled, had he not killed anyone before as well?


    Just as he was about to retort, Feng Bao Zi lowered his head and saw the black mole man lying on the ground. His lower body was covered in blood, and he had already lost his breath.


    "Elder sister ¡­"


    Feng Bao Zi''s low voice woke Yang Qin from his stupor, and the moment Yang Qin regained his senses, he immediately carried Feng Bao Zi and stood up to move away, only until the two of them got into the carriage did she heave a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground. Yang Qin powerlessly patted on Feng Bao Zi''s shoulder, "Go and check if Dou Ya is alright."


    Only after being reminded by Yang Qin did Feng Bao Zi remember Feng Dou Ya who he had forgotten. Without caring about her fear, she got up and climbed onto the carriage.


    Feng Dou Ya''s mouth was tied up with a piece of cloth. Upon seeing Feng Bao Zi, she twisted her body and let out a few cries.


    "Not at all, not at all. Big brother is here." Feng Bao Zi threw himself at Feng Dou Ya, her meaty little hands still unable to untie the rope. She wanted to find a different way to remove the cloth strip in Dou Ya''s mouth, but after a long while, she gave up.


    He couldn''t unravel it.


    Yang Qin was startled. She had just recovered a little of her strength, and immediately entered the carriage. She asked anxiously: "Eh? "What''s wrong? What''s wrong?"


    "I can''t untie the rope." Feng Bao Zi curled her lips. Feng Bao Zi, who had already eliminated all danger, finally had the spirit of acting cute. Although her face was covered in dust, it didn''t affect her cuteness in the slightest.


    "¡­" Yang Qin sighed and admitted defeat, "Alright, wait for me."


    In a short moment, Yang Qin returned from the outside. Holding the dagger that she had previously thrown from the man with the black mole, he quickly broke the rope tied to Feng Dou Ya''s body.


    "Big brother." Feng Bao Zi grabbed Feng Dou Ya''s hand. Just as he wanted to let him see if there were any injuries on his body, he was hugged by him.


    Looking at the two siblings who were hugging each other, Yang Qin pursed her lips and smiled.


    "Your majesty, something has happened to the two princes." In the study room, the secret guard passed the pigeon legend to Feng Qing Cheng.


    Ever since Feng Bao Zi and his birth, Feng Qing Cheng had arranged for four secret guards to be stationed at their sides. Because they were staying in the palace, Feng Qing Cheng never thought that they would have the guts to secretly run out of the palace, so the number of secret guards did not increase. Yesterday, when Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were in an accident, the four secret guards noticed that there was a group of mysterious people secretly trying to kill the two princes. The two sides faced each other, and by the time the four hidden guards finished off the trouble and caught up, there were already no traces of Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya.


    "It''s useless to punish them now." His face was expressionless, and no emotions could be seen from his face. After a long while, the hidden guard heard Feng Qing Cheng''s cold voice, "All of the hidden guards have been dispatched, find them. As long as it''s because of me, they won''t harm Steamed Bun and Dou Ya."


    "Don''t tell the empress about this beforehand." Feng Qing Cheng''s voice paused for a bit, then felt that it wasn''t appropriate to do so. Thinking of Xi Jiu Er''s temper, he shook his head.


    The emperor''s patrol, which only appeared once a few years ago, unexpectedly stopped for a few days in a certain city before starting off again. However, the emperor and queen had already disappeared from the patrol. Avoiding spies in the team, Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er immediately got up and went back.


    On the other side, Yang Qin waited for the two brothers to finish talking before opening her mouth to interrupt them, "Where do you two live? I''ll send you guys back. The two little fellows have been running around for an entire day, yet your family members are actually feeling at ease. "


    The moment Yang Qin said that, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya looked at each other, they could understand the emotions in each other''s eyes, they had yet to go to Prince Xian, how could they go back?


    Feng Bao Zi''s obedient face was currently filled with conflict. Seeing that Yang Qin had raised his eyes to look at them again, she gritted her teeth, rolled his eyes, and opened his mouth to explain their "true" situation.


    When he understood what was happening, Yang Qin looked at them in a different light. His eyes were opened wide, his mouth had a crack, and after a long while, he smiled bitterly: "You mean, your father mistreated you guys, so you guys ran away from home? You want to go to some uncle who is not here yet?"


    Feng Bao Zi''s head nodded bit by bit, the "mistreatment" Yang Qin spoke of twice fit his intentions perfectly.


    "¡­" Yang Qin supported her head with her hands, her body leaning on the carriage, staring at the two little people in silence for a long time, the corners of her mouth raised up little by little, "So you two are not going to go back? I have never run away from home before. How about you two add me this time? I can still protect you, okay? "


    What kind of joke was this excited tone?


    Feng Bao Zi imitated Yang Qin and let out a low sigh. Out of the corner of his eyes, he secretly looked at Feng Dou Ya, the tacit understanding between the two had long been completed after countless troubles, and it was only a glance, and the other party''s thoughts were clear.


    "Sister, actually, we didn''t want to implicate you, but you saved Dou Ya, and he is the savior of us two brothers. As long as we can have a bite of his food, we can let alone a small one like him." Feng Bao Zi patted his chest, while Feng Dou Ya nodded to agree.


    Although these words sounded awkward, the two little fellows still coaxed Yang Qin to their hearts''s content. Looking at the smiling Yang Qin, a trace of craftiness flashed past Feng Bao Zi''s eyes.


    The weak moonlight shone down, Yang Qin lifted the curtain and looked outside. When they were fighting just now, her horse had already gone somewhere, and there was only their carriage and a corpse in the middle of the road. Now that the city gate has been closed, Yang Qin calculated the time in her heart, and turned to look at the two little people, "If we want to return to the city, we have to wait until tomorrow morning, staying here all the time is not a good idea, you two have to decide, what I mean is we need to travel through the night, when the sun rises tomorrow, we can rush to the next city, and at that time we can rest, what do you think?"

 C495

    Yang Qin had been dealing with businessmen all year round, so she was used to it. However, Yang Qin didn''t treat Feng Bao Zi and the others as children.


    However, just as she finished speaking, Yang Qin smiled. It was simply because the two little fellows opposite her had cute expressions, and had dirty, unique little faces. Right now, they both had wooden faces, looking at her in all seriousness.


    "He''s called Dou Ya, then what''s your name?" Yang Qin suddenly pointed at Feng Bao Zi and asked.


    "What?" Feng Bao Zi was still thinking about Yang Qin''s suggestion, but did not expect her to suddenly ask this question, and stared at Yang Qin''s finger blankly.


    What did his name have to do with their running through the night?


    The innocent Feng Dou Ya squinted her eyes and smiled as she held Yang Qin''s hand. Seeing her look over, she couldn''t help but shout loudly: "Bun, big brother''s name is Feng Bao Zi."


    It really was a good name.


    Yang Qin looked at the two of them with a smile, and waved her hand, "Don''t even think about it, it''s not that big to begin with, but if you think about it carefully, your body will become even smaller." She caressed their heads as if coaxing a child, "I''ll go outside to drive the carriage. The two of you stay in the carriage. If you''re tired, then sleep for a while."


    After saying that, he opened the curtain and left. It didn''t take long for the carriage to slowly move away.


    Since they were young, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had been raised by Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er to have always known one thing: that the hearts of people were dangerous, so on the way, the two of them had always been on guard against every single person. Even when they first met Yang Qin, for the sake of their safety, Feng Bao Zi was not willing to talk to her too much.


    Most probably because Yang Qin saved Feng Dou Ya, the two of them trusted her very much. She said that they could sleep, and the two of them, without even thinking, went to sleep while hugging each other on the carriage.


    "Steamed Bun, Dou Ya, wake up, we''re here."


    Before Feng Dou Ya could bite down on the chicken leg in his hand, her body was already shaking non-stop. When he opened her eyes, the scene in front of him had completely changed. The chicken leg in his hand was now Feng Bao Zi''s arm.


    A look of confusion flashed across Yang Qin''s beautiful face. She took the kernels that was immersed in water and wiped away the still sleeping Feng Dou Ya.


    Yang Qin pursed her lips, pinched both of Feng Dou Ya''s cheeks, and squeezed his face again, until both his cheeks flushed red. Then, Yang Qin let go of her hands in satisfaction, "It''s just as your brother said, she''s as beautiful as a little girl."


    "Elder sister, you think so yourself, don''t you?" Feng Bao Zi who had already wiped his face clean came closer, the corners of his mouth raised slightly as he asked.


    Yang Qin didn''t think too much into it, and subconsciously nodded: "That''s right, you''re supposed to be beautiful, so you don''t allow me to think that way?"


    "That elder sister is too dishonest. She clearly thought of it herself, but she insisted on bringing it on me." Feng Bao Zi had already sat back to his original position, pouting, his eyes blinking, his head lowered in frustration.


    "¡­" Yang Qin realized that she had nothing to say.


    Could it be that she remembered wrongly?


    Rubbing his own head, Yang Qin who had not slept for the whole night started to feel tired and confused.


    Yang Qin lifted the curtain and pointed at the two brothers, "Let''s go in later, but after we go in, we need to find an inn to rest, but to find an inn, we need to find something, this thing ¡­"


    "Silver." The two brothers laid on the carriage window with their heads squeezed together. At this time, Feng Bao Zi turned his head around and stared at her with a helpless look.


    "Hur hur." Seeing his expression, Yang Qin could not help but laugh, "This little fellow is quite intelligent, I will tell you the truth, we do not have any silver to stay in the inn."


    Yang Qin shrugged her shoulders helplessly, she had always been with her servants, and never brought silver with her. Before she woke them up, she had already searched her entire body thoroughly, and other than the two jade pendants on her waist, there was nothing else of value.


    "Is that okay?" Feng Bao Zi took out five golden leaves from his bosom, and handed them over to Yang Qin, "I only have this much left."


    When he left the palace, he had brought a large bag with him. However, when he fled yesterday afternoon, he had lost all his belongings, leaving only the five pieces on him. Looking at Feng Bao Zi''s actions, Feng Dou Ya also fished around in his bosom, and after a long while, he took out a paper package and opened it, revealing a bag of crumbled pastries. "Big sister, I have this."


    "That''s great." Yang Qin, who was already considering going to the city to get the two jade pendants, saw the golden leaves and her eyes lit up. Holding the two little guys, she kissed each of them, "These two smart guys, I really want to go home and raise them."


    Smart, sensible.


    Yang Qin couldn''t help but start to complain about the two brothers'' fathers. Such a cute child was actually being mistreated, and it was no wonder the children ran away from home.


    Feng Qing Cheng who had been wrongly accused sneezed fiercely as he looked at the information his subordinate had given him. He rubbed his nose and looked at Xi Jiu Er helplessly: "Do you think that someone is scolding me in a corner because they dislike me?"


    "Heh, there are a lot of people who don''t like you. Otherwise, how did this happen?"


    Even the calm and collected Xi Jiu Er, although not on the surface, had already started to panic in her heart, even Feng Qing Cheng had become a lot more unsightly along with them.


    Would such a thing have happened to her two children if it hadn''t been for him?


    Feng Qing Cheng who had his note stolen looked at the gloomy Xi Jiu Er beside him. He did not say another word, but he was actually angry at himself.


    "Elder sister, this." Feng Bao Zi pointed to the candied fruit in the vendor''s hands, and turned to look at Yang Qin. Beside him, was Feng Dou Ya, who could no longer keep her eyes open.


    Yang Qin facepalmed. They had been out shopping the moment they had finished resting in the inn. She had only wanted to exchange the five golden leaves for silver, then buy two sets of clothes for them and some dry rations for them to eat on the road. However, she had not expected that in a short period of time, they had already pulled her to stroll around a few stalls.


    After trading two candied fruits, Yang Qin handed them over. Taking the chance when they were coming to take the candied fruits, Yang Qin suddenly made her move, pulling a small fellow in each hand and squatting down, she glared at them fiercely, "You two be good, or else you won''t let me buy anything for you. Do you hear me?"


    Although they had not known each other for long, Yang Qin had completely understood the two''s attributes. Although she was sensible, being naughty was enough to make people worry, and even though she was afraid of her own words, Yang Qin squinted her eyes and reminded them: "I don''t think you guys remember, the three of us have all our money here. If I don''t pay, you guys can forget about buying anything."

 C496

    There are still a lot of good people


    Feng Dou Ya licked her candied flakes, and nodded obediently. He had always been an honest man, and although she was smart, she was the most obedient one, and the other one definitely wouldn''t be so obedient. Yang Qin looked over and saw that he was rolling her eyeballs continuously, and lightly patted his forehead in annoyance, "Steamed Bun, if you dare give Dou Ya any bad ideas, I''ll tell you, in the future, the three of us will only have steamed buns for our meals. Eat the steamed buns everyday."


    After knowing Feng Bao Zi''s name, Yang Qin had liked to eat buns in front of buns everyday. This kind of thing was simply too great.


    "Got it." Feng Bao Zi held the candied fruits in her hands and lowered her head. Her originally round and obedient little face now carried even more grievance, and even Yang Qin, who had already been duped before, felt her heart soften. She raised her hand and patted Feng Bao Zi''s head, "Alright, if you listen to me, I''ll buy it for you."


    Yang Qin, who was only concerned with being soft-hearted, did not notice the cunning that flashed past Feng Bao Zi''s eyes.


    The trio stayed here for the night, and then they set out on their journey to find the Prince Xian. Of course, Yang Qin did not know that their goal was the Prince Xian''s Mansion, even though she had travelled far and wide to the north to meet many people, she did not expect that the uncle Feng Bao Zi spoke of was the current Prince Xian.


    After a few days, they finally arrived at Prince Xian''s camp at noon on a certain day.


    There were many rumors about the Prince Xian in the Daxing, but none of them could escape.


    Yang Qin raised her chin and said to Feng Bao Zi who stuck his head out, "This is the place. To be honest, I never would have thought that your uncle would be under the control of the Prince Xian."


    "Eh?" Feng Bao Zi could immediately tell that something was wrong with Yang Qin''s tone. He tilted his head and leaned towards Yang Qin, "Big sister, do you like Prince Xian a lot?"


    "Like it?" Yang Qin was startled, although she did not have any reaction on her face, his slightly flushed ears revealed her shyness. Yang Qin curled his hands together, put them to her mouth and coughed lightly, "Don''t spout nonsense, I have only heard of the famous Prince Xian, okay? How could I like a completely new person? "


    "But big sister''s ears are red. mother said that if you like someone, you will blush, which means that you are shy." When one shouldn''t have been smart to be able to react so quickly, when Feng Dou Ya had finished speaking, the remaining two people''s expressions changed greatly.


    Feng Bao Zi covered his mouth and chuckled softly, a gloating expression could not be seen in his eyes. He had originally been thinking about how he could quietly reveal this matter, but he did not expect Feng Dou Ya to so easily help him. The person with red ears, Yang Qin, was emitting a sense of danger. She pursed her lips and frowned, her eyes filled with rage and dissatisfaction as she looked around the two of them.


    "Don''t you two know that I am still a girl without an engagement? How could I not be shy when you directly said the word ''like'' to me? has nothing to do with that Prince Xian at all, okay? "


    Yang Qin clenched her teeth, and stared at the two of them fiercely, only until they shrank their shoulders and nodded did she let out a sigh of relief, rolled her eyes, and ignored them.


    The horse carriage slowly drove into the city. Yang Qin asked a few times, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya both told him that they did not know much about this uncle''s residence. Helpless, Yang Qin could only take the carriage and find a rather large inn to stay at first.


    After everything was settled, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya sat on the chairs in the tavern. The two of them heaved a sigh of relief, although they had never been to the Prince Xian''s fiefdom before, but they knew that if they wanted to look for the Prince Xian, they had to go, and thus, they had to find the Prince Xian.


    Thinking about that, Feng Bao Zi turned to look at Feng Dou Ya, and saw the joy in his eyes, they had not even decided how to tell him about their true identities.


    "I had the restaurant prepare a few dishes and brought them up. I see that you guys are tired, so rest first after lunch. We can go out and find your uncle after we have rested, okay?" In a short while, Yang Qin pushed open the door and entered with the waiter following behind him.


    "Right." The two of them had no objections to this arrangement and replied in unison.


    After bringing them to lunch, Yang Qin skilfully waited on the two brothers as she laid on the bed. Although her Yang family wasn''t any rich family, Yang Qin had been pampered and raised up since childhood, and had never done such a thing. During this period of interaction, she had already started off being clumsy at the start to her current movements.


    "Elder sister, you should rest a bit too." Feng Bao Zi''s eyes quietly opened a slit, just in time to see Yang Qin napping on the bed, beside her ear came Feng Dou Ya''s snores.


    Feng Bao Zi''s meaty little hand touched Yang Qin''s hand, seeing that she was looking at him, her face revealed a bright smile, and her body moved further inside, revealing a spot, she lightly patted on it, signalling Yang Qin to quickly lie down.


    Yang Qin did not stand on ceremony with him and bent over, with her mouth pressed against Feng Bao Zi''s face as he took a bite and laid down in his clothes. In order to be safe, although they had the money to live in an inn, they only opened one room each time they traveled, and the three of them huddled together. It was because the matter of the traffickers scared the two children, and they would stick close to Yang Qin at night.


    When Yang Qin woke up, the sky outside was already dark. Yang Qin looked outside the window, and saw that Feng Bao Zi, who was leaning against her, had kept crawling into her embrace, and although the other little fellow was sleeping in the innermost area, his hands were tightly grabbing onto her hands. The moment Yang Qin made a move, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya both woke up.


    "Elder sister, what time is it? Why is it so dark? " Feng Dou Ya squinted his eyes, his head drooping down, his entire body leaning on Feng Bao Zi as he mumbled to himself.


    Yang Qin lighted a candle, and snappily raised her hand to pat both of their foreheads, "The sky is already dark, tell me what time is it? "You''re not allowed to sleep, if you go back to sleep, you won''t be able to sleep again at night."


    Sitting on the bedside, Yang Qin looked at the slowly awakening child, her face full of satisfaction.


    Hearing that it was night time, Feng Bao Zi suddenly opened his eyes, staring straight at Yang Qin without blinking, "Sister, it''s night time, can we go shopping at the Light City? When I was at home, I heard about the lantern market in my uncle''s letter, but we''ve never met one. Elder sister, let''s go, let''s go. "


    Before Yang Qin could react, Feng Bao Zi had already rushed up and grabbed her arm. She swayed, and Feng Dou Ya followed his example and hugged her other arm, swaying along with her.


    "No." Yang Qin was almost shaken to pieces, but she still did not lose her head, "You two kids like to run around randomly. I can barely take care of you during the day, but it''s night and there are a lot of bad people. Could it be that you all want to let the matter with Dou Ya to happen again? "

 C497

    Did you get it?


    Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were not children who liked to cause trouble. Although Feng Bao Zi liked to cause trouble sometimes, he would definitely listen to them in big matters. Thus, after hearing Yang Qin''s explanation, the two of them quietened down and looked at each other.


    The two little fellows being so obedient, made Yang Qin feel very uncomfortable. First, it was because of father''s mistreatment, then, he met a trafficker, and after much difficulty, he wanted to look for his uncle, but in the end, she did not know where his uncle''s home was. Yang Qin supported his head, thought for a bit, and then opened her mouth hesitantly: "If you promise to always hold onto my hand, and not run around, let''s go out for a walk."


    "Really?"


    He turned his head to look at the other one, and also looked at her with a similar look of anticipation. Helpless, Yang Qin could only sigh, and accept his fate, "We made an agreement in advance, you all have to hold onto me tightly. We can''t go to this place with so many people, so when I said that we had to return, you all had to follow me back."


    "Alright."


    "No problem."


    The two brothers put on their shoes and jumped in front of Yang Qin. They both kissed her on the cheek and then smiled at each other.


    Seeing the two of them laughing, Yang Qin heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was also considering whether she should bring the two brothers back to the Yang family if she couldn''t find their uncle.


    On the other side, Feng Qing Cheng and Xi Jiu Er, who had been worrying for the past few days, finally obtained the exact whereabouts of both Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya.


    Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were both wearing masks, Yang Qin led them while talking non-stop, "Look, you guys don''t know where your uncle lives anyway, so it''s not certain if you can find him, what will you do if you can''t find the both of you? Are we going to go back and be abused by your father? "


    "You two are so cute and smart. It''s one thing if your father doesn''t cherish it, but he actually mistreats you two. Do you think that going back is meaningful?" Yang Qin licked her dry lips, and continued: "During this time together, you all know what kind of person I am, the Yang family''s population is simple, my grandfather loves children the most, you guys definitely will not be bullied when you go to my house, so do you really not consider coming home with me?"


    Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya pursed their lips, their gazes continuously sweeping across the lanterns on both sides. They did not even look at Yang Qin, much less respond to her words.


    The man who had always been following behind them was dressed in red, and wore a Zhu Bajie''s mask on his face. After hearing Yang Qin''s words, his exquisite face squeezed under the mask, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly to reveal her emotions.


    He actually bumped into such a righteous woman.


    The red clothed man pursed his lips and looked over, but all he saw was the woman''s side face that was slightly raising her chin.


    A proud woman.


    Yang Qin did not realize that the three of them had already been observed by others. She saw that the two brothers were not paying attention to her, and pulled on their hands in annoyance, "I say, I have been pretty good to you guys during this period of time. Why is it that there isn''t even a word of thanks? Right now, there isn''t even a response from me anymore. "


    "Thank you elder sister." Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had just finished speaking when they raised their heads and spoke in unison. One of them had raised his head, while the other was wearing a round and beautiful face.


    "Puff ¡­"


    The sudden laughter from behind them successfully attracted their attention. Yang Qin pulled Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya and turned around. When they saw that the one who turned out to be was a guy in red wearing a mask, they subconsciously took a few steps back.


    Amongst the four of them, only Yang Qin was not wearing a mask. Similarly, the expression on her face was the most intuitive to see, and she had a vigilant look which made Prince Xian herself feel that she was a bad person.


    "I say ¡­"


    "Shut up." only stopped after he had kept a safe distance from Prince Xian. Holding the two brothers'' hands tightly, he fiercely cut off Prince Xian''s words, "What did you say?


    After he finished speaking, Yang Qin lifted his chin and stared emotionlessly at Prince Xian.


    "¡­" He just wanted to say hi to her and apologize. He also wanted to take a look at how cute these two kids were and tell her all the way.


    Prince Xian curled his lips and shook his head helplessly, "I am not a bad person and I have no ill intentions. You guys ¡­"


    Prince Xian said half a sentence again but this time Yang Qin did not interrupt him. Instead, he pulled Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya and turned to leave. Until the three of them left in a hurry, Prince Xian could still hear the words that came out of the woman''s mouth, "It''s hard to fathom. Don''t look at how talented you are, you''re actually just wearing a layer of skin, this kind of person is the scariest, if you bite him, then it''s too late for regret."


    "¡­"


    He was an illustrious Prince Xian of Daxing. Was he really the person she was talking about, the trafficker who specialized in trafficking in children?


    For the first time, Prince Xian hated himself for his good hearing. He stroked his chin lightly, looking at the three of them who had already disappeared, his mind drifted away.


    I wonder how those two kids in the palace are doing? The last time he saw the two of them speak so quickly, he guessed that they should be even cuter by now. When Prince Xian saw the two children in Yang Qin''s hands, he thought of Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya. He pondered whether he should find a time to return and take a look.


    "Prince, there''s news from the palace." The guards who had been following him quietly moved in front of Prince Xian, interrupting his train of thoughts.


    "Mm. Then, let''s return to the estate first." Although he and the emperor of the Daxing Country were former love rivals, he was very good friends with the empress. They would send him some news every few days, and there were also two little fellows who would cause a joke for him, so the Prince Xian did not take it to heart.


    The next day, when Yang Qin woke up, she found that the atmosphere in the city was strange. She stood by the window, looking at the soldiers on the streets.


    "Elder sister, what''s wrong?" When Yang Qin returned from inquiring about the situation downstairs, she saw that Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had woken up. The two of them sat on the bed side by side and looked at her with a smile.


    Nodding his head and shaking his head. Yang Qin thought for a moment, looked at the duo''s doubtful expression, and then spoke up after a moment of hesitation: "I''m afraid we can''t go out and find your uncle today. With the city''s martial law, all of the foreign personnel have to accept the credits.


    "Who are they trying to capture?" Yang Qin did not notice that when Feng Bao Zi said those words, his eyes suddenly lit up.

 C498

    She rubbed their heads in distress, and after a while, she casually curled her lips and said: "I don''t know, I didn''t ask in detail. According to the boss, it was an order from the Prince Xian, I think it was to find some enemies. In any case, it''s not our business, so I won''t continue listening."


    When Feng Bao Zi, whose eyes had already dimmed down, heard the two words "Prince Xian," his eyes lit up once again with hope, he leaned in close to Yang Qin, "Big sister, the ones being captured by the soldiers aren''t us, it''s fine even if we leave anyway, big sister, little brother and I miss uncle a lot, he treats us extremely well, big sister."


    Following Feng Bao Zi''s instructions, Feng Dou Ya also tried to persuade them as well. However, Yang Qin, who had always doted on them, was not willing to let go this time.


    "No, we can''t discuss this." Yang Qin raised her chin, "Although doing business and walking about in the government is a compulsory course, when it comes to things related to the officials'' family, we can still avoid them. Who knows what kind of people these people are, if they were to meet with an unreasonable person, they could easily grab hold of us and leave us with nothing to say."


    All he wanted was to be caught.


    Feng Bao Zi''s eyes flickered, he was still worrying about how he was going to meet the Prince Xian, last night he thought about it, even if they found the Prince Xian''s Mansion, but with just the two of them, before they could even get close to it, they would be chased out. At that time, there would be nothing he could do.


    However, if they were to capture them and then bring them to Prince Xian, wouldn''t that mean that they would meet him?


    She had followed her grandfather and father out to do business since she was young, and had received quite a bit of anger from the officials. There was no denying that there were still good officials, but there were still plenty of officials without a conscience, and Yang Qin, who had never had a good impression of the officials, was unwilling to let it go no matter what the two brothers said.


    "Stop messing around. I''m older than all of you. How could I possibly harm you?" Yang Qin rolled her eyes, but she felt that she said too much, so she rubbed their heads and said: "How about this, here is our Yang Family''s business, you guys tell me your uncle''s clues, I will ask the Yang Family to help you guys find it, when I find it, I will bring you guys there, okay?"


    "Can you say no?"


    "No."


    "¡­"


    After sensing Feng Bao Zi''s accusatory gaze, Yang Qin turned her head away in embarrassment. She had left home, and now that they had found an uncle, they actually did not appreciate her gaze. She, Yang Qin, did not plan to go out and join the army at this time.


    Feng Bao Zi sighed helplessly, the smile no longer on his face, he pulled Feng Dou Ya down from the bed and stood in front of Yang Qin, "Since big sister said so, we agree, then when are you going to look for the Yang family''s manager?"


    "Let''s go now." Yang Qin curled her lips, feeling dissatisfied in her heart.


    After all, she had taken them with her for a lifetime. Wasn''t she better than their uncle, who didn''t even know his name and address?


    After instructing the two brothers to wait obediently in the room for her, Yang Qin left the tavern alone. She was not unfamiliar with the place, and quickly found the Yang family''s shop.


    On the other side, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya, who had gotten rid of Yang Qin with great difficulty, came out of their room. As Feng Bao Zi pulled Feng Dou Ya out, he explained sincerely: "Don''t worry, it''s not like we''re going to abandon our sister like this, we''re just going to look for the Prince Xian first. After we find him, wouldn''t it be fine to have the King Xian arrange for people to come and fetch our sister?"


    "Then why didn''t we just bring Big Sis along to find the Prince Xian?" The kind Feng Dou Ya pouted. In his heart, there were obviously three of them, yet she left Yang Qin alone in the tavern. He could not get rid of the guilt in his heart.


    Feng Bao Zi''s footsteps paused, he suddenly stopped, turned and looked at Feng Dou Ya, his mouth moved, but he did not say a word for a long time.


    "I don''t know what to say." Feng Bao Zi''s face flashed a look of shyness, her cheeks flushed red, "We had cheated big sister previously, I don''t know whether she would be angry at us, so when the time comes, can''t we get King Xian to explain it to us?"


    The Prince Xian who was tricked still did not know about it, he was startled when he saw the subordinate who reported it, "How come there isn''t any? Didn''t they say in their letters that they had come all the way here? But why not? Could it be that something happened to them along the way? "


    "Your highness, if the Emperor doesn''t have accurate information, he won''t pass on this information." The guard stood below and pondered for a moment before continuing, "Since the emperor said that the two princes are here, then they must have arrived safely. But just now, he was leading people in a search, and did not enter the inn to investigate. This subordinate specifically came to ask for instructions, what do you think ¡­"


    "Check, quickly go check." Prince Xian held his head and impatiently waved his hand. When he saw his subordinate leave, he felt that something was amiss, so he abruptly stood up. "Forget it, I won''t be at ease with you guys.


    The questioning guard coughed lightly but didn''t dare to say anything. His family''s prince had a crazy personality, if he wanted to come out and praise them when he was in a good mood, they wouldn''t be able to do anything, and the guards who were already used to it wouldn''t feel uncomfortable.


    Prince Xian rode a horse. Dressed in red, he stood out in the quiet streets and observed his surroundings for familiar faces.


    On the other side, as soon as Feng Bao Zi and Feng Bao Zi came out of the inn, they headed towards Prince Xian''s Mansion. Yang Qin''s words had inspired him previously, as long as they caused trouble at the entrance of Prince Xian''s Mansion, they would definitely be caught, and then, they would be able to see their King Xian.


    Thinking about it this way, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya became even more motivated. Relying on the fact that they were both small, no one noticed them even after walking on the main street for a long time.


    "Big brother, if we cause trouble, won''t they hit us if they catch us?" Feng Dou Ya was dragged by Feng Bao Zi. They were clearly two people of the same age, but Feng Dou Ya was actually shorter than him by an entire head. It''s no wonder that anyone who has seen them would be able to recognize brother.


    "I won''t." Feng Bao Zi caressed Feng Dou Ya''s blushing face, "With me here, I won''t let them bully you."


    "Hey, brother, look over there." Just as he was about to reach Prince Xian''s Mansion, Feng Dou Ya who was immersed in the joy of having his brother''s protection suddenly lit up. He pointed ahead and pulled at Feng Bao Zi''s clothes, "King Xian, look, big brother."

 C499

    Feng Bao Zi looked in the direction of his finger and stared. His face was immediately filled with smiles as he pulled Feng Dou Ya and ran forward, "Go, find King Xian."


    Prince Xian''s speed was not fast, his eyes were constantly paying attention to his surroundings. When he heard the child''s surprised voice, he subconsciously turned his head and immediately recognized the two children who were running towards him. They were the and Feng Dou Ya brothers in the portrait.


    He dismounted and carried the two brothers in each arm.


    Prince Xian''s speed was so fast that it shocked the guards behind him. Who said that Prince Xian only knew how to be narcissistic and coquettish all the time? If they let those people see the current Prince Xian, there wouldn''t be anyone that didn''t like it.


    A fatherly aura enveloped his entire body.


    "You two little fellows are making it easy for me to find you." Prince Xian carried one in each of his hands, buried his head in their shoulders and rubbed it with his hands, "Do you know that the two of you are about to drive people crazy?"


    "King Xian, we were wrong. We shouldn''t be angry anymore." Feng Bao Zi wrapped his arm around Prince Xian''s neck and twisted his body, his clever face hung a fawning smile, although Feng Dou Ya did not speak, he still kept nodding with his mouth agape, his exquisite and beautiful face so small that even Prince Xian would not be able to release his anger.


    The two of them walked past a few places on the way here, and only changed into clean clothes by Yang Qin in the morning, and now that they were all covered in dust, the Prince Xian did not feel that it was dirty, and the coquettish red wrapped around Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya, "Come, let''s go back to the residence first."


    Prince Xian''s Mansion''s carriage had always been behind him, upon hearing that Prince Xian wanted to use it, the carriage driver immediately drove it over.


    After the Prince Xian brought Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya back to the Prince Xian''s Mansion, the soldiers on the street also slowly withdrew.


    Yang Qin walked out of the shop, looked at the street without any soldiers, and frowned at the manager who escorted her out, "What happened? Weren''t the officials still searching for the prisoners when I left in the morning? How did it disappear in such a short period of time? "


    "But I haven''t heard any news of anyone finding them."


    The manager who was focused on Yang Qin turned to look and also noticed that something was amiss. He frowned, "Miss, how about I have someone check it out?"


    Yang Qin was not unfamiliar with the manager''s words, she merely wanted to send some silver to ask about it. If it was usual, it would be fine, but at the moment, Yang Qin did not want to meddle in other people''s business, she shook her head at the manager, "Forget it, what they want to do is not our business, but it will not be a long term thing for them to stay outside, you can just order two people to go to the inn with me to meet the people, I think it would be more convenient for me to stay here."


    The actions of the officials caused Yang Qin to be on guard, but she did not focus too much attention on this side. After the manager arranged for the good people, Yang Qin brought the two waiters to the tavern, preparing to bring Feng Bao Zi and Feng Bao Zi to the Yang family courtyard.


    However, Yang Qin never expected that when she returned to the tavern, the owner would actually tell her that Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had left by themselves an hour ago.


    "What?" When Yang Qin heard that Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were no longer around, she subconsciously thought that the boss was lying.


    How could the two obedient and sensible little fellows leave without saying a word? The whips that had been wrapped around their waists for a long time without being taken out were in Yang Qin''s hands once again, she grabbed onto the boss''s collar with one hand. "Tell me, where exactly did those two children who followed me go to? Did you stop them on the spur of the moment? "


    "You better be honest with me, or else I''ll find them even if I have to destroy your store." Yang Qin pursed her lips, and stared at the inn owner with unfriendly eyes, "Didn''t they say that the Prince Xian is fair? If you are not honest, I will look for Prince Xian and have him look for you personally. "


    "Aiyo..." The boss''s face was full of wrinkles as he continued, "Dear guest, what do you mean by that? I''ve opened this inn for dozens of years, but no one has ever said anything bad about our inn, so I''ll leave those words here, those two young masters left by themselves, as if they were looking for someone. As for the rest, no matter how many times you ask, I only have three words."


    The two waiters who had always been following Yang Qin finally reacted at this time. They pulled on Yang Qin''s arms with bitter expressions on their faces, wanting to separate the two.


    The Great Miss would be leaving in a few days, but their business would have to continue here. They were all old acquaintances who had never seen each other before, it wouldn''t be good for anyone if the matter really got out of hand.


    "I believe you this time." Yang Qin stared at the inn owner for a while, then suddenly let go of his hand. At this time, Yang Qin had already calmed herself down, and calmly nodded at the owner, "I was wrong about you, this little girl will apologize to you, and come visit me after finding my two brothers."


    She had met countless of business people, and from the point of view of being deceived to the point of being familiar with the road, Yang Qin had his own point of view on the knowledge of people, and now she knew that he had been too excited just now.


    Without staying in the inn for long, Yang Qin sent the two waiters behind him back to call for people. The two brothers then walked in the direction that she and Yang Qin had left in.


    On the other side, the moment Prince Xian brought Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya back to the Duke Palace, he ordered someone to bathe them. After the two had changed into clean clothes and came out of the clean room, Prince Xian was currently reclining on Luo Han''s bed, supporting his head with his hands as he looked at the two of them with a smile that was not a smile.


    "The two of them are brave enough." The Prince Xian was dressed in red, adding on his extremely exquisite appearance, even the two children Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya were stunned where they stood, "Tell me, who was the one who noticed you running away from home this time?"


    Prince Xian''s gaze slightly stopped on Feng Dou Ya''s body, and landed on Feng Bao Zi''s body in the end. Don''t look at his well-behaved appearance, if not for the fact that he frequently heard about what they had done from Xi Jiu Er in his letters, he really wouldn''t have known that Feng Bao Zi had a well-behaved face, which was typical of her underbelly.


    The moment Feng Bao Zi laid in the Prince Xian''s embrace, he knew that he had been exposed, but he was not in a hurry. He pulled Feng Dou Ya along and climbed onto the rohan bed, then said with a smile. "King Xian, Dou Ya and I did not leave home, my royal father framed us."


    "Oh?" Prince Xian raised his eyebrows, using his eyes to indicate for him to continue.


    "We are planning to travel here. I have already drawn out our route map for royal father, so I did not leave without saying goodbye." Feng Bao Zi turned his body, placed his head on Prince Xian''s shoulder and gently rubbed it: "Besides, didn''t Dou Ya and I think about it? It''s because we missed you so much and royal father and mother didn''t even bring us to see you. That''s why we ran out ourselves. "

 C500

    "Oh." Prince Xian pretended to be enlightened, "So that''s what it is, then that means you''re really not wrong."


    Feng Bao Zi proudly casted a glance at Feng Dou Ya, and Prince Xian followed his gaze. The hand that hugged Feng Dou Ya tensed up, and Feng Dou Ya, who was completely different from Feng Bao Zi, stayed in her embrace the entire time. Seeing him look over, she pursed her lips into a smile, and her originally beautiful face became even more gorgeous because of the smile.


    Prince Xian shifted his gaze away from Feng Dou Ya, as he looked at Feng Bao Zi helplessly. "Enough, I don''t blame you two, but you two said that children should be like this, coming out to wander around at such a young age, only then will they be able to achieve something when they grow up. The two little fellows being able to return safely is something to be commended for."


    He raised his hands and rubbed the two little fellows'' heads. The Prince Xian continued to speak mysteriously: "Anyway, I don''t have the biggest opinion on this matter. As long as you two are safe, it''s fine."


    "King Xian, you''re even more handsome now. You''re even more handsome than my royal father." After flattering, Feng Bao Zi let out a "yeah" with her little fist.


    Yang Qin, who had been completely forgotten by her two brothers, was currently standing at the entrance of the Prince Xian''s Mansion with a whip in her hand.


    See, even if there was no one in the palace who was good, a dignified Prince Xian was actually involved in the trafficking of children. It was fortunate that those people praised him to the heavens, but actually, he was not a good person.


    The more he thought about it, the uglier Yang Qin''s expression became. With a "pa" sound, the whip in his hands struck at the black door of Prince Xian''s Mansion.


    After swinging seven to eight whips, Yang Qin finally let out a sigh of relief, raised her hand to wipe the sweat on her forehead and continued to curse at the door, whatever it was, she cursed at the Prince Xian, and very quickly, over thirty sturdy men rushed out from the door, surrounding her in the center.


    "Miss, are you still going to continue cursing?" The last man who came out took a step forward to look at Yang Qin. He had just returned with Prince Xian when he immediately arranged for people to come back for him.


    "Why aren''t you cursing? Since that bastard dares to do it, why wouldn''t I dare to scold him? I don''t think I have scolded him enough. " Yang Qin placed her hands on her waist, she glanced at the guards around him, and snorted: "You think I''m afraid of you guys just because you have more people? If you have the guts to make the Prince Xian come out by himself, and dare not to admit it, what kind of man are you? "


    Yang Qin said sentence after sentence, not giving Xiao Liu the slightest bit of preparation to speak. When Yang Qin finished speaking, she stared at him coldly, but Xiao Liu had already completely forgotten what she wanted to say.


    Do you dare to admit it? Xiao Liu sized Yang Qin up from head to toe. She was a beauty, could it be that his family''s Prince Xian did something that let this lady down when he was unaware, causing her to come looking for him?


    Xiao Liu only stayed by Prince Xian''s side during the past two years. In his eyes, Prince Xian was a man who was narcissistic and flirtatious, but there was only one thing he did not care about, and that was when it came to men and women.


    "Could it be two years ago?" Xiao Liu rubbed his chin, and muttered to himself in a low voice. Two years ago, this Miss couldn''t be considered to be that old.


    "Since Miss is looking for my Prince Xian, then please come in first." Xiao Liu looked at the surrounding crowd, and the discussions became louder and louder, he did not dare to stay any longer, and raised his hand, half-courteously inviting Yang Qin into Prince Xian''s Mansion.


    Yang Qin was not afraid in the slightest. In this period of time, she had truly treated Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya as brothers to love, and since she dared to come here alone, she was already prepared to "die with them". Naturally, she was not afraid now, so she walked towards Prince Xian.


    Xiao Liu had just finished making arrangements for Yang Qin, and immediately went to find Prince Xian.


    He was still unaware that the three people Yang Qin had called over were huddled together, laughing merrily. Hearing Xiao Liu''s voice, Prince Xian hugged Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya and replied lazily, "En, go ahead."


    "Your Highness, there was a young Miss outside just now." Xiao Liu''s voice paused slightly, then continued under the Prince Xian''s gaze: "You loudly insulted the Duke, saying that the Duke doesn''t dare to do it, doesn''t deserve it."


    "Miss? "Female?" Prince Xian placed his hand on his forehead, "Could it be that my charm is too great, that there are already girls who want to throw themselves into my arms?"


    "¡­" Xiao Liu lowered his head and did not say a word.


    Feng Bao Zi was rather pleased, and happily nodded his head, "Isn''t that so? King Xian was the most handsome, how could such a handsome man not be liked by women? Hearing the name Prince Xian, elder sister blushed. "


    popped out his head from behind Prince Xian, his eyes staring straight at Xiao Liu, "Are you dressed in black and holding onto a long whip?"


    "Reporting to the First Prince, it''s this Miss."


    The moment Xiao Liu''s voice fell, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya sat up on the bed at the same time. The two little fellows looked at each other, "It''s big sister."


    After shouting, he didn''t even bother to put on his shoes and immediately ran out.


    When Prince Xian saw the two of them moving, he knew that there was something he did not know about. Calmly putting on the clothes, he bent down to pick up the shoes of the two brothers and followed suit.


    Seeing that the Prince Xian had done everything personally, Xiao Liu hesitated for a moment and did not take the initiative to receive it. When the Prince Xian and Xiao Liu rushed to the great hall, he saw a girl sitting on a chair.


    "Big sister, don''t be angry, we were wrong, alright?"


    "Big sister, there''s no need to be angry."


    His long fingers tapped each of their foreheads, before he sighed and said: "If you want to come out and find uncle, then I''ll bring you out, and it''s not like I won''t help you, although I didn''t want to find uncle for you guys and bring you back to my house, but I was just thinking about it, and didn''t really do anything to you two, are you two trying to make me worry so much?"


    Look, the majestic Prince Xian of Daxing is also starting the business of kidnapping and selling children, isn''t that so? Now that you have fallen into his hands, let''s see what you can do about it, hmph. "

 C501

    The more Yang Qin continued to speak, the darker Prince Xian''s complexion became. He had mentioned how the woman in front of him was so familiar with each other, and now that he heard these familiar words, he finally remembered who this person was.


    At this time, Yang Qin still hadn''t discovered that her words had been heard by the other two. After she finished speaking, she lowered her head to rub the two people''s foreheads, and only then did she notice the complicated expressions on the two of them. Am I wrong? Prince Xian... "


    "Oh, right. Didn''t he capture you two? Why would he appear here? "


    Yang Qin frowned, before she could even understand what was going on, Prince Xian, who had been standing behind her, walked forward with two pairs of shoes in his hands, "Naturally, I was the one who kidnapped them when they appeared here, it was just that two of them turned out to be just like the other three, that''s why I purposely let them come out to fish for you."


    "¡­" The Duke was really interested, Xiao Liu twitched his mouth, seeing that he had no business here, he decided to go down quietly, as he was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to hold back and laugh out loud.


    When Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya saw Prince Xian''s figure, they immediately jumped, but were stopped by Prince Xian''s hands. He threw the two pairs of shoes he was holding into his arms, "Put them on and play around again."


    At this time, even Yang Qin''s brain would be stupid enough to realize that something was wrong. This situation did not seem like it was caused by a child trafficker.


    Realizing that he had guessed wrongly, Yang Qin looked at Prince Xian in embarrassment, and lowered his head, not saying another word. Prince Xian waited for the two brothers to finish putting on their shoes before sitting on the seat of honor. He looked over and only saw the girl''s head, and frowned unhappily. "Why aren''t the girls talking, could it be that those traffickers are as charming as this duke? Or is This King''s charm only suitable to be a trafficker? "


    Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya lowered their heads and stood by her side like Yang Qin. When Prince Xian was done speaking, Feng Bao Zi then raised her head and said, "Big sister already knows her wrongs, can you stop talking?"


    "Sure." Prince Xian tapped his fingers on the table. Hearing that, his fingers paused for a moment before he laughed, "Little bun has already spoken, do you dare this king not to listen?"


    "Elder sister, everything is fine." Feng Bao Zi pulled Feng Dou Ya and walked two steps forward. He saw Prince Xian''s clothes the instant he appeared, but he did not open his mouth to remind Yang Qin, because this was exactly the effect he wanted, because a misunderstanding was caused by Yang Qin, who was already short of breath. At that time, even if he found out the truth, he would not be too angry.


    When he thought about it, Feng Bao Zi laughed even more happily than before. He grabbed Yang Qin''s hand and gently pulled at it, only then did he say: "Elder sister, don''t be angry at Dou Ya and I, the King Xian is actually the uncle we are looking for. Although Dou Ya and I trust our elder sister a lot, what if we were to tell you about this, what if you bring a fatal disaster upon us?"


    "Later on, when we got here, Dou Ya and I wanted to talk to Big Sister, but we didn''t know how to talk anymore.


    After he finished speaking, Feng Bao Zi pouted his lips and carefully looked at Yang Qin. The fire that had just lit up was instantly extinguished, looking at the two adorable kids, Yang Qin couldn''t even get a temper out, she could only keep her mouth shut and pretend to be mute. Yang Qin, who had already admitted defeat silently, did not speak. However, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya did not let her go, the two of them exchanged blows, their bodies twisting and turning, and they waved their hands, but their eyes were filled with caution and depression.


    "Enough, I didn''t say I''m going to be angry with you guys." Yang Qin frowned, she looked at the two brothers, but felt aggrieved in her heart. Her voice paused, and she raised his hand to rub their heads, "Since we found your uncle, then it''s fine, there''s nothing else."


    After saying that, Yang Qin no longer bothered with Feng Bao Zi and his expression, she raised her head and looked at the Prince Xian who was seated at the head of the table, "Sorry, I misunderstood you previously, I apologize for what I said. If you are not satisfied, you can come and find me at the Yang Family anytime, any punishment is fine."


    If he knew his wrongs, he would correct them.


    Yang Qin had been aware of this since she was young. Even though she still did not like the man called Prince Xian, she still spoke out her attitude.


    "Alright, it''s time for me to leave. My people are still waiting outside for my news." Yang Qin stood up, looked at the two brothers and laughed, "I won''t dare to be willful in the future, it''s very dangerous outside."


    Chapter 10


    Ever since Yang Qin left the Prince Xian''s Mansion, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had been depressed and depressed. Although the Prince Xian was pained, he did not speak up, as their identities were destined for the things they would experience in the future and the people they would meet would all be different. They had to have their own ways of knowing what was right and wrong.


    "King Xian, do you think Big Sis will pay any attention to us?" Feng Bao Zi leaned onto Prince Xian, and the fingers which tightly gripped onto his clothes indicated his current nervousness.


    "I don''t know." Prince Xian shook her head, hugging the two little fellows tightly, she continued: "If someone did this to you, would you guys feel angry? "Would you still care about that person?"


    "Will he?" As the last voice fell, he weakly hung his head. Sure enough, he had been thinking too much, they had lied to him for so long, and in the end they had even left him without informing him. How could they not be angry?


    Although Feng Dou Ya hadn''t spoken a word the entire time, the expression on her face was exactly the same as before.


    Prince Xian looked around and finally sighed. He no longer dared to tease the two of them anymore, he patted their backs and comforted them: "Don''t worry, your big sister is not a petty person. Although you two haven''t known each other for long, she truly loves you two, she will not ignore you two because of this little matter."


    "However ¡­" Looking at the two''s shining eyes, Prince Xian shook his head helplessly, "If you''re wrong, then so be it. Since you''re wrong, then admit your wrongs to big sister, why are you trying to find an excuse? It''s clear that I did something wrong and am not allowed to anger my sister. My sister will naturally feel wronged. "


    "So big sister is just feeling wronged. Dou Ya and I went to apologize to big sister, and big sister won''t ignore us, right?"


    Feng Bao Zi quickly figured out the meaning behind Prince Xian''s words and successfully concluded it. When Prince Xian thought about it, it was indeed true, so he also nodded his head, "What else do you think?"


    Actually, what Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya did not know was that Prince Xian was not confident either. After Yang Qin left, he ordered her men to investigate everything that happened to them during this period of time. After discovering that Yang Qin had no ill intentions towards them, she finally relaxed.

    When he was chasing Xi Jiu Er, he had already realized a truth. Who knew what Yang Qin was thinking right now, but when she saw the look of worship in Feng Bao Zi''s and Feng Dou Ya''s eyes, Prince Xian felt that even if Yang Qin didn''t think that way, so what? At most, he would just send someone to threaten the Yang Family, wouldn''t it be fine if Yang Qin did as she was told?


    After obtaining the solution, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya seemed to have obtained a treasure, and did not bother with the Prince Xian anymore. Instead, the two of them accompanied Xiao Liu and started to look for Yang Qin again and again. In this period of time, Yang Qin stayed at the Yang family''s shop, and also checked the account books of the other shops. Although he was angry about it when he was free, as time passed, Yang Qin felt that it was just a small matter.


    However, the two children were a bit more vigilant. This was not a bad thing, didn''t she tell the two little guys to be vigilant?


    Thinking about it this way, the last bit of uneasiness in Yang Qin''s heart dissipated.


    On that day, Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya came to the Yang family store to report, but this time, they did not follow Xiao Liu, but the famous Prince Xian.


    The moment Yang Qin saw Prince Xian, her expression immediately changed. Could it be that this person was really here to cause trouble for her?


    What a stingy man.


    Yang Qin curled her lips, watched as the manager welcomed the three in front of him, and then continued to look down at the account book in his hands. Once they entered the shop, Feng Bao Zi pulled Feng Dou Ya along as she ran to Yang Qin''s side. She squatted down and leaned on her leg, "Elder sister, we''re here again."


    After figuring it out, Yang Qin didn''t avoid the two brothers this time. Seeing them come over, she smiled at them in a good mood, "Why are you here again, didn''t I get the manager to tell you guys yesterday? "I''ll be busy recently, even if you guys come over, I won''t have time to play with you guys. I''ll come visit you guys after I finish my work."


    "Really? Elder sister is not angry anymore? " Feng Bao Zi curled her small, meaty hand into a ball and put it into Yang Qin''s hands. Her face was full of surprise and joy, "Dou Ya brought you his favorite pastry today, it''s only available in Prince Xian''s Mansion."


    After that, without waiting for Feng Bao Zi''s reminder, Feng Dou Ya took out a bag of pastries that had already been broken into pieces and placed it in front of Yang Qin, "Big sister, eat up, I and big brother hid it for big sister."


    When he heard the last two words, the Prince Xian who had been acting as the backer slightly frowned. What kind of habit was this?


    "Brother said that giving something of our own to Big Sister would show our sincerity, but Big Brother and I are very poor right now, and we don''t have anything on us to give Big Sister, so we can only give you some of the pastries we left behind."


    Prince Xian and Yang Qin both did not think that Feng Bao Zi and Feng Dou Ya had such an idea, a look of shock flashed past their eyes.


    "En, Big Sister will not be angry with you guys. Big Sister will also stay for the pastries, and Big Sister, which Dou Ya likes to eat, also likes to eat." The corner of Yang Qin''s mouth held a smile, and the shock in his heart did not disperse at all. Feng Bao Zi was still alright, but she understood Feng Dou Ya, as she was very well-placed in his heart, and now that she was actually willing to take it out, Yang Qin felt that her position in his heart had instantly risen to Feng Bao Zi''s level.


    "Alright, since your elder sister Yang is no longer angry, then it''s time for you to return with me." Seeing the three of them laughing together, Prince Xian would never say that he was jealous. He clearly looked better than this girl and had more charisma than her, but why did he have to watch from the side? Could it be that they shouldn''t give him a hug as well?


    Prince Xian unhappily curled his lips, and just in time, Yang Qin, who was secretly observing him from the corner of his eyes, caught sight of him. As expected, after finding out his true identity, he could no longer play around happily.


    Regarding Feng Bao Zi''s and Feng Dou Ya''s identity, Yang Qin could roughly guess it, and knew that she, a merchant''s daughter, did not have a high position in the eyes of others, but Yang Qin''s character was this type of carefree, she never put this matter to heart, and would even less think that if others looked down on him, she would feel inferior.


    had never had this kind of thought in her heart before, but when she unintentionally saw Prince Xian''s disdainful little action, she couldn''t help but feel sore in her heart. No matter what, she truly treated these two little fellows as family that was being pained, but in the future, she wouldn''t be able to unscrupulously rub their hair again.


    Thinking about that, Yang Qin pursed her lips, and rubbed the two brothers'' heads until they looked over at him. Then, she let go of her hands.


    "What''s the matter, sister?" Feng Dou Ya''s soft voice came out, her watery eyes staring straight at Yang Qin without blinking.


    "It''s nothing, I''m just looking at you." Yang Qin also followed them and stood up, leading one of them to Prince Xian''s side, "Quickly go back with Prince Xian, I''ll visit you guys again when I have time."


    "Fine." Feng Bao Zi''s sharp senses detected that something was wrong with Yang Qin''s emotions, but he didn''t know what reason it was, and his face replied unwillingly. However, when Yang Qin looked over, he revealed a smile, "No matter how busy Big Sister is, she should still pay attention to her body."


    Prince Xian took the two brothers from Yang Qin''s hands, and without saying anything, he turned and left.


    Until the moment when the three of them went out of the shop''s entrance, Yang Qin could still hear Feng Bao Zi''s dissatisfied complaints, "Must you come back now? Can''t we stay with our sister a little longer? We are so obedient and won''t run around. King Xian, why not? "


    "I have no objections." The Prince Xian carried the two of them into the carriage, and only then did she speak neither hurriedly nor slowly: "The key is that your royal father and mother are not willing, they are about to arrive soon, I have already told Xiao Liu to wait outside the city, your royal father had decreed that when he arrives at Prince Xian''s Mansion, the two of you must be there."


    "They''re coming?"


    Just as Prince Xian finished speaking, Feng Bao Zi''s entire being jumped up, his head knocked against the roof of the car, and then bounced back.


    "Watch you make trouble." Prince Xian held the two of them in his embrace, then rubbed Feng Bao Zi''s head and continued to speak, "So what if he comes, he won''t do anything to you. Aren''t you best at acting cute and pitiful when he''s here? Your mother will take advantage of you the most. After taking care of your mother, what is there to be afraid of your father? "


    After hearing Prince Xian''s words, Feng Bao Zi''s eyes lit up. He turned the words over and over again, and solemnly nodded his head, "King Xian, then tell me, what does my mother like the most? When the time comes, Dou Ya and I will give it to Imperial Mother, and Imperial Mother will no longer be angry at us if she is happy. "

    Feng Bao Zi did not easily fall for his trick either. He had behaved well so many times, and it had become useless against Xi Jiu Er a long time ago.


    "Of course, what does your mother like the most? I''m sure she likes me the most." Prince Xian nodded her head in satisfaction, and tightened her hold on both of them, "Didn''t you realize that my relationship with your mother was very good? It''s so good that even your royal father has to be jealous of me. From this, it can be seen that my position in your mother''s heart is naturally the highest. "


    So come and please me quickly, and I''ll help you with some pleasantries.


    Prince Xian did not finish his words, but he felt that since he had said it so clearly, the two brothers should have already understood it by now. As expected, Prince Xian looked at the two little fellows and nodded at the same time, revealing a satisfied smile.


    Two hours later, in the backyard of Prince Xian''s Mansion, a furious roar resounded through the sky.


    "Feng Bao Zi, Feng Dou Ya, just you two wait ¡ª"


    Xiao Liu looked at Prince Xian who was in Feng Qing Cheng''s and Xi Jiu Er''s room unconscious, and quietly retreated, the entire family could not be provoked.


    On the other side, just as Yang Qin finished looking through the account book in her hands, she saw two brothers who had barged in, "Sister, quickly, pack up your things and we will run away from home."


    Small interview ¡ª


    autumn: What''s your name? What''s your nickname?


    Feng Bao Zi: I don''t have a nickname, I''m called Feng Moxi!


    Feng Dou Ya: My little name is Dou Ya, my big name is Scenic Spot! Also, big brother, mother said that children can''t lie. Big brother has a nickname, it''s called Steamed Bun ¡­ Hee hee!


    Feng Bao Zi:...


    autumn: Which one of the royal father and mother listened to one another?


    Feng Bao Zi: Of course, mother will listen to royal father. If royal father says one thing, she will not dare to say another. If royal father wants her to walk towards the east, she will definitely not walk towards the west!


    Feng Dou Ya: Big Brother, that''s not right. If mother wants to hit our fart, royal father says no, but mother continues to hit. Father''s words are useless! Wuu, wuu, my ass hurts again ¡­


    Feng Bao Zi: It won''t hurt if you come and rub it, big brother ¡­


    autumn: Big brother, you lied again!


    Feng Bao Zi: To protect my royal father''s face, what''s wrong with telling a white lie? What''s wrong with you, you grown-up? Why are you bullying the child, and making your royal father beat you up again?!


    autumn: No, no, no, I was just reminding you. Why do you have to take it so seriously! Then, under what circumstances is your mother afraid of your royal father?


    Feng Bao Zi: Hehe, you understand!


    autumn: What do you mean?


    Feng Dou Ya: You really are stupid, what Big Brother meant was that when Mother was in bed, she was very scared of royal father, and always told royal father not to bully her ¡­


    autumn:... Understood, do you like royal father a bit more, or mother a bit more, why?


    Feng Bao Zi: Can you not ask such childish questions?


    Feng Dou Ya: I like the Queen Mother, there''s no reason why!


    Feng Bao Zi: You actually answered such a childish question? Was he stupid?


    One of the team directors shouted: "Autumn water is endless! What are you doing? Why are you visiting two children when you have nothing to do? The recording studio is already done!"


    autumn: I''m sorry, I''m sorry, I''ll go right now ¡­


    Feng Bao Zi:...


    Feng Dou Ya: "Big Brother ¡­" We''re shitty kids...


    The visit officially began:


    The leading men and women were present:


    autumn: Welcome, welcome. To be able to let the two of you take some time out of your busy hours to do an interview, thank you very much!


    Feng Qing Cheng said indifferently.


    Jiu Er laughed: How can I be so busy? I''m just taking care of the kids and controlling the country''s affairs! Oh right, my two children are still outside the recording studio. Your staff must watch them carefully, they are being too naughty!


    Feng Qing Cheng: Not good, take the author and try it out!


    autumn: Rest assured your majesty, there will be a staff member watching over you. There will be no mistake! Alright, let''s get to the point. How do you two feel when you meet for the first time? Love at first sight? How do you feel about each other?


    Feng Qing Cheng: This is my first time meeting you ¡­ I felt like she was trying to seduce me, and that I was having an affair... It felt like he was an expert in that aspect. In the future, he could spar and ask for advice!


    Jiu Er was a little embarrassed: "This is the first time I feel that he''s so good-looking ¡­" Cough, I''ve already used Chinese medicine. It feels like his figure is not bad!


    autumn: In the next few days, what are the things that you remember about your opponent deeply?


    Feng Qing Cheng: This girl is ruthless!


    Jiu Er: I don''t seem to have a deep impression of him. At that time, I was just thinking about revenge and didn''t pay attention to him!


    autumn: When did you fall in love with him?


    Feng Qing Cheng: "I don''t know ¡­" I unknowingly fell in love with her, and then went deep into my marrow!


    Jiu Er: After I gave birth to my child, I suddenly became a mother. After thinking about it a lot, I realized that it would be better to accept it than to avoid it.


    autumn: What did the other party do that moved you the most?


    Feng Qing Cheng: Return to my side, and don''t torment me. This is what makes me feel the most touched!


    Jiu Er: So far, I''m the only woman!


    autumn: Which one of the two children do you like more than the others? Why?


    Feng Qing Cheng: Steamed Bun, he looks just like what I did back then!


    Jiu Er: I like both children! I gave birth to all of them...


    autumn: What is your pet name for each other?


    Feng Qing Cheng: Jiu Er! Be a good boy...


    Jiu Er: I didn''t.


    autumn: What do you like about each other the most?


    Feng Qing Cheng: I appreciate everything!


    Jiu Er: A loyal official!


    Feng Qing Cheng: I''m not a dog ¡­


    Jiu Er: Loyal as a dog!


    Feng Qing Cheng:...


    autumn: What is your favorite position when you are embarrassed?


    Feng Qing Cheng: Cough, how can the happiness of a lady be compared to a stranger like you?


    Jiu Er: You should be more reserved with women!


    autumn: Err, then I''ll ask Jiu Er, if she gives you another chance. Would you even choose that Feng Qing Cheng should be a Prince Xian? One had to know that there were many good men like the Prince Xian!


    Feng Qing Cheng stood up: What do you mean by that?


    autumn: There''s no other meaning. What, are you feeling guilty? He was not that confident in himself? Worried that Jiu Er would be taken away by the Prince Xian?


    Feng Qing Cheng: Bullsh * t, if he dares to rape my woman, I will kill him immediately and become fertilizer immediately! He didn''t want to grind his bones to dust!


    autumn: Stop boasting. With Jiu Er''s protection, not even a single one of you can poke around!


    Feng Qing Cheng gnashed his teeth: What did you say!


    Jiu Er: Alright alright, alright, it was just a joke. The child is already this old, why can''t he hold it in! and I are both matters of the past, I cherish my current life, I am very happy and satisfied!


    Feng Qing Cheng said with a smile on his face.


    autumn: What did the other party do to reach the bottom line?


    Feng Qing Cheng: Traitor, fall in love with someone else!


    Jiu Er: Same as him!


    autumn: Since Jiu Er has opened up to Prince Xian, then let''s continue talking about Prince Xian!


    Feng Qing Cheng suddenly jumped up: Are you courting death?


    Jiu Er: Let''s change the subject ¡­


    autumn: Why did you not say that you have put it all down? Did you guys react in such a way that you didn''t put it down... Puff ¡­


    autumn ¡ª - Happy New Year''s Secret!


    ¡ª ¡ª


    At the end of the writing, thank you for your support and company along the way, thank you! Bow ¡ª I wish you all the best in 2016, baby, all the best! Waving his hands and bidding farewell with tears ¡­ I love you! What...
