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.
