"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.
