Upon hearing this, Jia Laoda quickly said, "Your Highness, that fairy is very capable. Your Highness, I will go down and invite... um... to call her out for you."

Sisi ignored him. "Pour it in."

"yes."

Sisi's three thousand followers weren't brought for nothing.

Soon, Old Lady Jia led He Xiangu and her concubines out of her underground palace.

He Xiangu was ethereal and otherworldly.

The beauties looked dejected.

Old Mrs. Jia was in a fierce and aggressive manner.

Snap!

As soon as Old Mrs. Jia came out, she slapped Jia the eldest. Jia the eldest had always opposed Old Mrs. Jia's actions, so Old Mrs. Jia subconsciously felt that Jia the eldest was trying to drown her.

Grandma Jia also saw Sisi and the others, but she assumed they were hired by Jia Laoda, so she only glanced at them.

As for her children and grandchildren?

Since her eldest son was about to drown her, of course her children and grandchildren had to come and see her off in her final moments.

The more Grandma Jia thought about it, the angrier she became!

Snap!

Grandma Jia slapped Jia the eldest again. "You unfilial son! I raised you with so much care and effort, and this is how you repay me? Have you lost your conscience?"

None of Grandma Jia's children and grandchildren knew martial arts, and Sisi was too lazy to tie them up. Seeing Sisi's imposing manner, they dared not run away, nor could they.

Old Master Jia was extremely frustrated. But there was nothing he could do. Just as Old Master Jia was about to tell his mother that Sisi was the Crown Princess, He Xiangu chanted a Buddhist prayer. "Greetings, Crown Princess, are you passing by or have you come specifically to find this fairy?"

Crown Princess?

Grandma Jia was stunned when she heard this.

Sisi wasn't surprised at all. How could she deceive people if she didn't even have this much insight? Sisi circled around He Xiangu. "It's said that you are the reincarnation of He Xiangu?"

"Yes. Crown Princess, what difficulties have you encountered? Or are you seeking the path to immortality?"

Sisi didn't answer her. "Since you're a reincarnated deity, then this princess will have someone stab you twice. If you're still alive, this princess will worship you like He Xiangu. Guards, stab her twice in the chest."

"yes!"

A guard carrying a knife walked towards He Xiangu.

He Xiangu hadn't expected Sisi to try and kill someone right away. He Xiangu hadn't yet figured out how to respond.

Grandma Jia pointed at Sisi's nose and said, "How dare you be rude to the fairy?! Are you... ah!"

Before she could finish speaking, her hand flew out.

The guard plucked a handful of grass and wiped the blood off his knife.

Old Bai clicked his tongue twice as he looked at Old Madam Jia. "She really has nothing to fear now that she's hooked up with the fairy, even pointing her finger at the Crown Princess and cursing her. Quickly, let the fairy put your hand back in place."

Old Mrs. Jia was already quite old, and now she had built a harem. Before Lao Bai could finish speaking, Old Mrs. Jia fainted.

Before he fainted, he looked longingly at He Xiangu.

He Xiangu also wanted to put her hand back, but...

He Xiangu took out a packet of medicine and handed it to Jia Laoda. "This can stop the bleeding. You should bandage your mother first. We can talk about the rest later."

Boss Jia quickly took it. "Thank you."

He Xiangu looked at Sisi and said, "Crown Princess, my lifespan in this life is not yet over. If you stab me to death, then your wealth and honor will be gone. It might even... it might even implicate your three sons."

Sisi raised an eyebrow. She wasn't easily intimidated. "Stab."

"Wait, if you don't believe me, I can prove it to you."

The best proof is the reaction in the face of life and death. "Stab!" This woman must have some skill, otherwise Old Madam Jia wouldn't have trusted her so much.

"yes."

In the blink of an eye, the knife was right in front of him.

He Xiangu decided to take a gamble, and sure enough, the guard actually stabbed her, and right in the chest.

bump!

"ah!"

He Xiangu flew straight away.

The guard looked over at Sisi. "Princess Consort, she's wearing protective gear."

Sisi noticed too. "She's not wearing any neck brace, so stab her in the neck."

"yes."

The guard responded and walked towards He Xiangu with his sword in hand.

He Xiangu quickly scrambled to her feet. As soon as she stood up, she kowtowed to Sisi. "Your Highness, I am not the reincarnation of He Xiangu. I just wanted to swindle some money. Your Highness, please forgive me. Your Highness, I swear I will never lie again."

Sisi glanced at Old Mrs. Jia's beauties. This wasn't as simple as swindling money. "Stab."

"yes."

"I'm practicing the art of rejuvenation!"

The guard had barely finished speaking when He Xiangu confessed. If she didn't, she would truly become a "fairy." But confessing might offer a glimmer of hope. Who wouldn't want to regain their youth?

Sisi stopped the guards. "Are you using Old Madam Jia to practice the art of rejuvenation?"

"Yes. I want to master it and dedicate it to you."

Sisi glanced at He Xiangu. If He Xiangu found out, she could just say it was for her. If He Xiangu didn't find out, who knows how many people she would harm?

Furthermore, if she really masters it, who knows what kind of storm she might stir up given her temperament?

Some people will go to any lengths to reverse aging. Like Grandma Jia.

If there are too many people like Old Lady Jia, the world will descend into chaos again.

"Old Bai, investigate how many people she's harmed in the past. Her skills and reputation weren't built in a day. Also, investigate her master and fellow disciples, as well as her close friends, to see if they were involved. And her family as well. If she was involved."

"Okay." Once this kind of thing gets out of hand, it's hard to handle.

He Xiangu's face turned pale instantly.

The Jia family members also looked grim. So their old lady was just a test subject for other people's medicine?

Sisi picked out a pleasing one from among Old Madam Jia's beauties and had him take twenty guards down to take a look.

After the guards finished reading, they spoke to Sisi about it.

After listening, Sisi had the guards fill it out.

Old Master Jia's feelings were somewhat complicated. He felt it was a good thing to add the money, but he also felt a pang of regret. It had cost fifty to sixty thousand taels of silver to dig this underground palace.

"Your Highness, may I...may I return home?"

"Yes, you can take your mother with you. By the way, what are you going to do with the stepfathers your mother found for you?"

Old Master Jia wanted to disappear into the ground. "I'm going to return their indentures to them, and then give them two hundred taels of silver so they can settle down somewhere else. What do you think?"

"Okay. Let's go."

"yes."

Jia Laoda and his family kowtowed to Sisi and then carried his mother away. As they left, they even picked up his mother's severed hand.

Sisi sent some guards to escort them, lest they be eaten by wolves.

After they left, Old Bai couldn't help but sigh, "His son is a good son, but it's a pity he didn't meet a good mother."

Sisi glanced at He Xiangu. "Mother must have been a good mother before, and she must have sacrificed a lot for Jia Laoda, but she became confused later. Otherwise, Jia Laoda wouldn't have let her run wild."

Sisi misses Grandpa Yun a little.

Sisi decided to find some more tasks for Grandpa Yun.

To prevent him from getting tired of teaching and being led astray by wicked people.
