It's freezing cold, and no matter how many layers of clothing you wear, you can't stand the cold.

The two servants dared not get up, dared not speak, and dared not beg for mercy, because Xu Zhi had a notorious reputation, and the more they begged for mercy, the faster they would die.

Xu Zhi withdrew his gaze and said, "However, if we only wash these today, I feel it's a bit too little. You should find some people to bring more clothes and dishes. Also, see if there are any other people whose bedding needs washing, and bring that too."

Ahri shrugged, her hands trembling.

The two people kneeling on the ground thought that Xu Zhi wanted Ah Li to wash, so they suppressed their trembling bodies, looked at each other, and laughed.

Ah Li secretly glanced at Xu Zhi, and seeing that he was still standing in front of her, she bit her lower lip, thinking: If I beg for mercy now, will I be able to save some for tomorrow?

Not long after, when several eunuchs pushed several carts of clothes, bedding, bowls and chopsticks over, Xu Zhi said, "You stay here and watch the two of them finish washing these. They can't rest, eat, or leave until they're done washing."

Ah Li blinked, watching Xu Zhi point to the two people kneeling on the ground, then turned back to look at her and said, "And you, come with me."

Xu Zhi had also heard that there was a princess in the State of Jin who was exchanged by the Emperor of Jin.

However, upon hearing that this princess was willful, capricious, and spoke without tact, the Emperor of Liang no longer wished to see her. He already had several princesses with similar temperaments in his harem.

So they just ignored it and let people arrange things as they pleased.

Xu Zhi hadn't attracted any attention before, but now that he'd met this person, he thought: at least this person cured his poison, so he should protect him if he could.
