Chapter 63 The demon hunter is not getting rid of demons (23)
Shisui knew that there were many guards outside the room and she could be overheard if she wasn't careful.
She placed the demon-subduing gourd in her arms in front of Princess Wenzhu and spoke as quietly as possible.
"Princess Wenzhu, I've brought the Nine Cloud Fox Demon back with me. He's not out in the desert... he's inside this gourd! Your brother and nephew don't know about it. If you're ready to see him, tell me and I'll release him immediately."
Shi Sui was afraid that Princess Wenzhu would be too excited, so she held her hand and asked for her opinion in a low voice.
Princess Wenzhu's sunken eye sockets emitted a timid glow.
She even straightened her hunched back and asked, "Are you serious?"
Tokiho nodded solemnly.
Princess Wenzhu stroked her aging face with her hands, which were covered with bulging veins and wrinkles.
She sighed heavily: "I want to see him, but I don't want him to see me like this..."
"Don't worry, Princess Wenzhu. I asked Nine Cloud Fox Demon what he thought before bringing him here. He will come to see you, no matter what form you have become."
Shi Sui gave Princess Wenzhu a reassurance.
Princess Wenzhu could not hide her inner excitement. She raised her head and tears unconsciously seeped out of the corners of her eyes.
"Time is merciless. Over 40 years have passed, and everything has changed." She sighed, "I feel like I have a lot to say to him, but I can't say it..."
"Princess Wenzhu, please think carefully first. Besides, there are ears everywhere outside now. Even if I release the Nine Cloud Fox Demon now, there are still many taboos."
Princess Wenzhu touched the gourd, made up her mind, and nodded slightly: "Then you can come back at noon tonight. I will arrange the defense here by then."
After they reached an agreement, Shi Sui made another request to Princess Wenzhu.
"Two nights ago, Mrs. Bai was beaten by your nephew and was bedridden. I haven't had time to visit her. I would like to ask you to do me a favor..."
"Is this true?" Princess Wenzhu was shocked. "What kind of conflict did they have that necessitated a fight?"
Shi Sui asked tentatively, "It wasn't a fight between the two sides. It was your nephew's one-sided abuse. Princess Wenzhu, you've been in a coma for six months. Didn't you know that Bai was already over six months pregnant?"
"What a sin!" Princess Wenzhu slapped her thigh in agony. "I really misjudged this child. He was bright and clever when he was young, and I had high hopes for him, but I didn't expect him to live up to his expectations! Only now that I've woken up do I realize he's actually kicked out the maid who's served me for years from the Bu Mansion. I'm left with no one to use."
Shi Sui quickly tried to calm her down: "Princess Wenzhu, please don't be angry. Take care of yourself. If you trust me, I will help you handle this matter."
Princess Wenzhu pursed her lips and asked Shisui to call the city lord and Bu Yuchuan over.
She did not directly blame Bu Yuchuan for beating Bai, but directly ordered Shi Sui to move into her yard and live with her!
In this way, Shi Sui no longer needs to be under the control of the city lord.
When Bu Yuchuan heard this order, he almost went crazy.
He shouted in disbelief, "Aunt, don't be fooled by this mysterious woman! We don't even know if the Nine Cloud Fox Demon is really nearby, and you're relying entirely on her words... I think this is very inappropriate!"
The city lord also disagreed: "Sister, don't say you just met. The main thing is that you are still sick, so you should rest and recuperate——"
"If I keep resting any longer, I'll become senile and confused!"
Princess Wenzhu yelled angrily and suppressed the city lord.
For her sake, the father and son finally had to obey.
…
After Shi Sui regained her freedom and settled down in Princess Wenzhu's courtyard, she hurried to see Bai...
"Knowing that your wound has healed and the fetus is stable, I feel more at ease."
When Shi Sui saw Bai, the first thing he asked about her injuries.
Although Bai was physically unharmed, her eyes were dull and filled with despair, as if her soul had been hollowed out. Her lips moved subconsciously twice, but no sound came out.
Her heart is completely dead.
Bai has moved to a side room, and the city lord has sent people to monitor her, so her life is safe for the time being.
But ever since the scandal broke out, all the servants knew that the general did not like his wife, and he was no longer as obedient to Bai as before.
Today, Shi Sui came to see her, and there were many servants standing behind her, listening intently.
That's why Bai didn't dare to say more.
Shi Sui frowned and came up with a plan.
She knew that Bai could read, so she pretended to take a book, opened a page at random, put on some magic tricks on it, and then handed it to Bai.
"I am fully capable of killing Bu Yuchuan with my own hands. Everything depends on your intention. All you need to do is nod or shake your head."
Seeing the word "hand-kill", Bai's eyes finally showed some changes - she was shocked!
In her system of thought, there is absolutely no such concept as "killing husband"!
She felt that it was something only a damned person could do!
Shisui has also been telling herself to stay calm.
Bu Yuchuan is a scumbag in every sense, a very scumbag!
Killing someone might feel good for a while, but before that, Shi Sui at least needs to understand clearly whether Bai can live a normal life for the rest of her life after losing her husband as a support.
She was already married and had two children to raise. In this world where men were superior to women, practical survival was a big problem.
So Shisui turned the book to another page and cast the spell again.
"Or maybe you can go back to your parents' home to have a safe pregnancy and give birth? You won't have to look at his face every day, maybe you'll feel better."
Why.
Bai sighed.
A daughter who is married off is like spilled water, there is no way she can come back!
Going back would only bring shame to my parents!
but……
Shisui turned another page——
"If your parents knew about the situation you and your child are in now, would they feel bad?"
When Bai saw these words, his defense was instantly broken.
Tears of grievance burst out.
She missed home. She really missed her parents' home.
Although she is a girl, her father has loved her since she was a child and regards her as the apple of his eye.
If her father knew about this experience, maybe... he would really take her back?
She sobbed, trying to hold back the tears.
Bai pulled Shi Sui's hand over, spread out her palm, and wrote on it stroke by stroke with her fingers.
"Send a message"
"Dayan City"
Shi Sui understood immediately.
Bai didn't want to kill her husband, but she wanted to ask her family if they were willing to come and rescue her.
Tokiho nodded.
The fact that Bai was willing to seek help from her relatives showed that she was much more resolute than before.
Tokiho turned the book to the last page, leaving her with only three words.
"Don't worry."
Don't worry, if Bai's parents see her like this, it is not up to her alone to decide whether Bu Yuchuan can be saved or not.
