"Your Highness, my family is also here. We need to trouble you with something..."
The others on the side quickly spoke up. Since Yuchi Xi was free now, he would follow them to their homes to check on them and help them solve the problem.
After she finished her work, she went to the county magistrate's mansion. The county magistrate and his entire family were waiting at the door. When they saw her coming, they all saluted her.
Yuchi Xi said, "No need to be so polite."
"What are you doing?"
The county magistrate said, "Your Highness, no, I am no longer the county magistrate, so naturally I cannot live here. I know the rules, and I didn't take anything valuable. I only took some of my own money and some clothes."
"If you're worried, you can go get checked."
Yuchi Xi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would be willing to move out so readily.
"Okay, then you guys go first."
The county magistrate nodded and handed a bunch of keys to Yuchi Xi. Yuchi Xi took it and watched them leave.
The county magistrate had been in office for so many years, it was impossible for him not to have a villa, so she was not worried at all that they had no place to live.
The county magistrate walked a long way away, still wondering, "I have such a big family, with men, women, old and young. Doesn't the little princess feel sorry for us at all?"
I didn't even ask them if they had anywhere else to live.
The county magistrate's wife spoke up, "It's probably because, Master, you really touched the little princess's reverse scale this time."
The county magistrate thought of the rumors about Yuchi Xi and felt that it was very likely.
"Never mind, I'm going to see the prefect tomorrow."
The county magistrate gritted his teeth secretly and said, "Madam, please come with me."
The county magistrate's wife nodded and said "yes". There was nothing she could do. The prefect was her uncle. Now that such a thing had happened, how could the master not ask her to go with him?
Why!
Tomorrow will be another difficult day.
…
Yuchi Xi took the key and entered the county magistrate's mansion. They had packed everything cleanly, as if they knew she would live here, and had replaced the bedding with new ones.
"Brother Jing, please pick a room to live in first."
"I'll just pick one and stay there first."
Yuchi Xi looked at several rooms and finally chose one that suited his taste.
Jing Huaian chose the room next to her. Yuchi Xi took out a handful of yellow paper from her arms and began to draw talismans. She drew very quickly, and Jing Huaian watched her beside her.
The little fire dragon came out from her sleeve and was now flying in the air watching.
After Yuchi Xi finished drawing the talisman paper, he put it all together and said, "Let's go look at a shop tomorrow!"
"Then, Prefect, what does Her Royal Highness intend to do with the little princess?" Jing Huaian asked her.
Yuchi Xi thought for a moment, "Then the previous county magistrate will definitely go to look for him. I will go after they have dealt with their personal affairs first."
"good."
The next day.
Yuchi Xi went to choose a shop early in the morning. This shop used to sell wine and had many cabinets. Yuchi Xi simply didn't decorate it. He just took down the flags with the word "wine" and replaced them with flags with the word "talisman".
It opened directly.
Those people were worried that the shop would not open for a while, but when they saw that it was open, they immediately came to line up to buy talisman paper.
The talisman paper that Yuchi Xi drew yesterday was not enough to sell, and it would not be enough for her to draw the talisman paper alone. Yuchi Xi wrote a letter to Master Wuchen, asking for support from his disciples.
During this period, she can only draw more by herself.
On the other side, the county magistrate also went to see the prefect. The prefect had already received the news, so as soon as the magistrate arrived, he immediately invited him in for tea.
The former county magistrate sneered, "I dare not drink this tea, uncle!"
The prefect smiled and said, "What's our relationship? You can drink this tea!"
The former county magistrate asked, "What is our relationship? Is it because you embezzled my monthly salary?"
"I won't waste any more words. Just return all the money you embezzled from me and I'll be back!"
"Otherwise, I'll have to go to the little princess and make a scene."
Prefect: ...
"Look at what you're saying. What do you mean by embezzlement? I'm just keeping it for you!"
"I'm worried that your money will be stolen."
"That's why I'm keeping it for you. Don't worry, since you need it, I'll give it to you."
The prefect winked at his trusted confidant, who immediately went to get the money.
Former County Magistrate: Haha, you'll still say, "Keep it for me?"
Why don't you ask me for all the money in my house and keep it for me?
But since the prefect was willing to give it, he didn't say much.
Former County Magistrate: "My uncle still cares about me!"
The prefect's expression softened a bit, "That's natural. If your uncle doesn't love you, who will he love?"
"You, I was the one who brought you up in the first place."
The former county magistrate lowered his eyes and said, "I have failed my uncle's cultivation. Alas, my official position is no longer available. Her Royal Highness the Little Princess has taken my official hat away!"
The prefect paused, holding the teacup. "Why did the little princess take your black hat?"
The former county magistrate told him everything that happened yesterday. Of course, the little princess knew that the magistrate had embezzled his money, so he did not hide it.
The prefect's hands had begun to tremble, and he could hardly hold the teacup steady.
"Y-Really?"
"It turns out that the little princess knows everything..."
The prefect's hand holding the teacup was shaking so much that he simply put the cup down.
The former county magistrate said, "Don't worry too much. You haven't done anything bad, have you?"
"It's just... that's all!"
