The Emperor's decree? Che Buchi frowned. He knew that it wasn't appropriate to offend Shao Liuer, but she insisted on coming.
Shao Liu-er said sorrowfully, "Venerable One, I'm not here to offend Mister Wuxin. It's just that my husband's life is at stake. I'm only here to plead with Mister Wuxin. Can't I do that?"
"This …" The man hesitated.
Clang! Shao Liu-er suddenly made her move. She unsheathed the sword of the female attendant beside her and held it horizontally across her neck.
"Princess!" Everyone exclaimed.
"Out of the way!" Shao Liu-er rebuked him sternly. The tip of her sword had already caused blood to appear on his snow-white neck. She said in a mournful voice, "Venerable Master, I definitely wouldn't dare to offend Mister Wu Xin. I don't want to offend anyone either. It's just that my husband's life is at stake, so I have no choice but to try. Regardless of whether Mister Wuxin agrees to help me or not, I have to give it a try. I'll do my best and leave the rest to fate. Master, please make an exception! Whoever dares to stop me, I will die here! "
Among the obstructing cultivators, one of them flipped his hand in an attempt to stop Shao Liuer.
Unexpectedly, Che Buchi's figure flashed and pressed down on the other party's arm. Then, he cupped his fists at the people blocking him and said, "Fellow brothers, please make an exception for the sake of us being from the same sect. I guarantee that Princess Consort will never offend Sir Wu Xin, and I will not allow it. I will watch from the side. How about it? "
Hearing his words, the man who tried to stop him hesitated for a moment before giving way. At the same time, he reminded Che Buchi, "The Sect Leader is in the palace keeping an eye on this matter. Senior Martial Brother, be careful!"
It was also a warning to Che Buchi, 'Keep an eye on him and don't make things difficult for me. Otherwise, you won't have an easy time either.'
Che Buchi nodded slightly as a sign of thanks. Then, he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Shao Liu-er's wrist. With lightning speed, he snatched the sword from her hand and put it behind his back. Then, he extended his hand and gestured for Shao Liu-er to go over.
"Thank you! Thank you! "Shao Liuer, who had a bloody wound on her neck, bowed to the person who stopped her. She was extremely grateful and quickly passed through.
Che Buchi didn't let too many people follow her. Only a few people quickly followed behind Shao Liuer.
Hao Qingqing, who had run over to take a look, immediately became unhappy. She shouted, "What's going on? Why can she go there? "
"Princess, His Majesty's decree is directed at you!" the man said in a deep voice.
"You …" Hao Qingqing gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do.
The front door of the Ghost Doctor's disciple's residence was knocked open. Guo Man peeked her head out to look at the people outside and asked suspiciously, "Who are you? What's the matter?"
Che Buchi, who had knocked on the door, stepped aside to reveal Shao Liu 'er, who was behind her. "The Princess of the Ying King's Residence requests an audience with Mister Wu Xin. I'll have to trouble you to pass on the message."
At the bottom of the stairs, Shao Liuer tried her best to squeeze out a smile. Disregarding her status as a princess, she bowed and tried her best to be respectful to Guo Man, the gatekeeper. She hoped to gain Guo Man's favor.
"Princess Ying?" Guo Man muttered. Her eyes flashed as she sized up the other party. Then, she said, "Wait."
Bang! The door was mercilessly shut.
The people outside didn't know what the outcome would be. After all, the master of the inner sect didn't even give face to Chief Minister of the Inner Palace, Bu Xun. Thus, they could only wait anxiously.
Inside the room, there was a pile of bottles and jars. Wu Xin was flipping through a sheepskin scroll. He was following the words on the sheepskin scroll to concoct the medicines.
In a corner with a strong smell of medicine, Yan Baoru was grinding the roots of a plant and making medicinal powder according to Wu Xin's instructions.
Guo Man entered and walked to Wu Xin's side. She reported, "Mister, the Princess of the Ying King's Residence requests an audience."
When she said this, Wu Xin's entire body froze. He turned around and asked, "Which Princess of the Ying King's Residence?"
Guo Man smiled. "How many Ying King's Residences can there be in the capital? It's the Princess of the Third Prince, Haozhen."
Wu Xin's five fingers instantly clenched the sheepskin scroll in his hand. His breathing was clearly hurried and his Adam's apple continuously moved up and down. "Why did she come here?"
Yan Baoru, who was in the corner, raised her head. She noticed that Wu Xin's tone was clearly not normal. It seemed to be slightly trembling.
Guo Man was also paying attention to Wu Xin's reaction. Hearing this, she smiled. "I just told Mister that she came to see you."
"No …" Wu Xin seemed a little uneasy. "I'm asking, why did she come to see me?"
Guo Man asked curiously, "What's wrong, Mister? It must be because of Ying King's Haozhen's poisoning. Didn't Bu Xun, the Minister of Internal Affairs, come here earlier? I don't believe that Mister can't guess that the Princess Ying came to save her husband. "
Wu Xin slowly put down the scroll in his hand and hesitated.
After a while, Guo Man probed, "Mister, do you want to see her?"
Yan Baoru's bright eyes suddenly flashed. She discovered that Mister seemed a little nervous. His chest was clearly undulating and his breathing was disorderly.
Wu Xin suddenly turned around. However, after quickly walking out of the pharmacy, he stopped. He lowered his head to look at his clothes, then looked at the main door. It seemed as if he didn't dare to face anything. He suddenly turned around and went back into the pharmacy, saying, "I won't see her!"
Yan Baoru and Guo Man, who had followed Wu Xin out of the pharmacy to see what was going on, turned around and looked back into the pharmacy. Then, they looked at each other and understood the meaning in each other's eyes. Mister was obviously worried about his personal gains and losses. This was not normal!
Guo Man left the pharmacy and walked to the main door. The door was half open.
As soon as the door opened, everyone outside revealed hopeful expressions. Shao Liu-er's fingers were intertwined together. She was really hoping for something.
However, when Guo Man opened her mouth, everyone fell into despair. "Princess, please return. Mister is not seeing anyone."
This was a reasonable and expected answer. However, it was also the answer that everyone feared the most.
Shao Liu-er immediately begged, "Miss, can you allow me to see Mister?"
Normally, Guo Man would have already closed the door. However, right now, she was filled with curiosity about Shao Liu-er. She didn't rush to close the door and drive her away. Instead, she constantly looked at Shao Liu-er from head to toe. She kindly advised, "Princess, please don't make things difficult for me. Mister's rule is that if he says he won't see anyone, he won't see anyone. It doesn't matter who comes. Even His Majesty, Emperor Qi, came here to see Mister, but he still won't see him. Do you think you're more important than Emperor Qi? "
"I can't be compared to His Majesty. However, my husband's life is really in danger. I beg Mister to save my husband," Shao Liu-er cried. Shao Liuer wept, raised her hands, and knelt down in front of everyone. "Mister, please show mercy!"
"Princess." Che Buchi couldn't bear it anymore and went forward to support her.
However, Shao Liu-er raised her hand and stopped him.
Guo Man sighed, "Princess, why do you have to do this? Perhaps you don't know, but you're not the first person to kneel at the door. I can't even remember how many people have knelt here to beg Mister. It's useless. Mister says he won't see you. He never breaks his rule. Please go back, Princess. "
Shao Liu-er shook her head while sobbing, "I don't beg Mister to make an exception for me. I only beg Mister to show mercy. If Mister doesn't agree, I won't get up!"
Guo Man sighed, "Then it's up to you." She stepped back and closed the door.
Bang! Once the door was closed, only Shao Liu-er's sobs could be heard in the silence of the alley.
"Princess, since he won't see you, why don't we go back?" Che Buchi tried to persuade her.
Hearing his words, Shao Liu-er suddenly bowed and kowtowed. With each kowtow, she begged, "I beg Mister to show mercy and save my husband! I beg Mister to show mercy and save my husband … "
Che Buchi and the others looked at each other. The princess was so sincere in saving the Prince that they didn't know whether to stop her or not.
Hu Yanwei and the others, who were stopped at the entrance of the alley, were speechless when they saw this scene from afar.
"Third Sister-in-law, why do you have to do this …" Hao Qingqing gnashed her teeth in hatred. "What Mister Wuxin? I think he has a heart of stone, the heart of a wolf, and the lungs of a dog. No, he's heartless. This kind of person better not fall into my hands. Otherwise, I'll dig out his heart and see if it's black."
A cultivator at the side reminded her in a low voice, "Princess, watch your words!"
"Hmph!" Hao Qingqing curled her lips and looked at the person kowtowing in the alley. "Third Sister-in-law, you really love Third Brother."
Hu Yanwei muttered, "With a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?"
Hao Qingqing immediately glanced at him coldly. "Am I not good enough?"
"Heh! What do you think? "Hu Yanwei smiled insincerely and raised his chin at the person kowtowing in the alley." Learn a little. "
Hao Qingqing glared at him. "You want me to kneel for you? Dream on! Why don't you just die? "
Hu Yanwei rolled his eyes and muttered, "You're good. Very good."
In the pharmacy, as soon as Guo Man came in, Wu Xin, who was holding the sheepskin scroll, immediately asked, "Did she leave?"
Guo Man: "She refused to leave. She's kneeling outside the door, saying that if Mister doesn't agree to save her husband, she won't get up."
The corner of Wu Xin's mouth showed a sneer of ridicule. "It's really a love between husband and wife. If she wants to kneel, then kneel." After saying that, he continued to look at the sheepskin scroll in his hand.
Guo Man and Yan Baoru looked at each other. The two of them had known Wu Xin for more than a day or two, so they had some understanding of his temper. This was the first time they had seen him say such ridiculing words.
After Guo Man went out for a while, she came back in and said, "Princess Ying hasn't left yet. She's kowtowing to Mister. She's begging Mister to save her husband."
Wu Xin's throat moved. He didn't say anything and continued to look at the sheepskin scroll in his hand.
However, whether it was Guo Man or Yan Baoru, they could see that Mister was clearly out of his wits. He was absent-minded as he held the sheepskin scroll. He was not as focused as before.
After a while, Guo Man went to the main entrance and looked through the crack in the door.
After going back and forth between the pharmacy and the main entrance a few times, Wu Xin suddenly took the initiative to ask, "Is she still there?"
Guo Man: "She's still there. She's still kowtowing and begging. I can see that she's exhausted."
Wu Xin slowly closed his eyes and tightly held the sheepskin scroll. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and put down the sheepskin scroll in his hand. He said word by word, "Open the door!"
"Eh …" Guo Man was stunned. She asked tentatively, "Did Mister agree?"
Wu Xin: "Let her in!"
"Yes!" Guo Man turned around and quickly left.
Creak! The door opened. This time, it was completely wide open.
Everyone outside looked up. Shao Liu 'er, who was already exhausted, hurriedly kowtowed with all her might. She raised her voice, "I beg Mister to show mercy and save my husband!"
Guo Man: "Princess, please get up. Mister asked you to come in."
Everyone was overjoyed. Their spirits were lifted!
"Thank you, Mister. Thank you." Shao Liu 'er was also overjoyed. She hurriedly got up. However, just as she got up, she knelt down again. This time, she fell down. Her legs were already numb from kneeling.
Everyone hurriedly rushed over to support her. A female cultivator quickly placed her palms on her body, using a technique to help her unblock her meridians and blood vessels.
After regaining her mobility, Shao Liu 'er immediately pushed the door to the left and right. She didn't dare to let her master wait for too long. She quickly walked up the stairs.
However, Guo Man stopped the entourage. "Unauthorized people, please don't enter. Mister doesn't like crowds."
She let Shao Liu 'er in and immediately closed the door.
