"Eldest Prince, then this humble Taoist shall begin." Looking at Honghui like this, Master Wang's eyes revealed sympathy. It was just bad luck for this prince to have such a mother.
"Hmm." Honghui sniffed, forcing back the tears in his eyes, and once again became the little adult he was.
After Master Wang entered the mansion, Luo Xuexuan went into defensive mode, with everyone's face showing some tension.
There was only one exception: Yin Qingyi. Trusting her brother, Yin Qingyi felt no nervousness whatsoever.
Right now, she's still enthusiastically playing with the three little ones.
"Master, are you really not worried at all?" Granny Naqi looked at her laughing and joking master and the three young masters and really didn't know what to say. She clearly knew that others were plotting against her, so why could she still play with the children so carefree?
"What are you worried about? Even if Physician Li doesn't handle it well, what can the Princess really do to me? It's just a baseless accusation. Granny, don't forget, these three little ones are my children. How could someone who gives birth to auspicious creatures like me be some kind of demon or monster?" Yin Qingyi teased the little princess in her arms. Hearing Granny Naqi say this, she looked up at Granny Naqi and smiled. She had been thinking about this for a long time and finally remembered something that would benefit her. After all, her three children were considered auspicious.
"..." Granny Qi was so taken aback by Yin Qingyi's words that she couldn't think of a rebuttal for a moment, and even found it strange that Yin Qingyi's words made some sense.
"Right? Your mother's little Yue'er thinks so too, right? Look how happy she is smiling." After Yin Qingyi finished speaking, she looked down and saw her daughter smiling sweetly at her. She immediately ignored the old woman and continued to tease her daughter.
"Ya ya~" Little Yue'er exclaimed, giving her mother face.
"Ah!" Ertubu and Burha, lying on the bed, waved their hands in the air and shouted, as if responding to Yin Qingyi's words. The little ones' antics eased the worries of Granny Naqi, and a smile appeared on her face.
Compared to everyone in Luoxue Pavilion, Su Xiaobao in the front courtyard was truly uneasy. He hoped that the Fujin (principal wife) wouldn't cause any trouble, and that the Taoist priest's exorcism was genuine and not an attempt by the Fujin to scheme against the concubine. However, he knew very well that these thoughts were wishful thinking! But as a servant, he couldn't stop the Fujin from inviting the Taoist priest into the mansion. He could only lead everyone in the front courtyard to quietly guard the study door, ready to rush to Luoxue Pavilion to stop the Fujin at the first sign of trouble. Although it might be useless, he still had to do what he had to do. He couldn't just stand by and watch the concubine be taken away by the Fujin. When the master returned, he wouldn't care about whether he dared or not; he would definitely not let him off.
What was supposedly an exorcism ritual inside the house was actually just a chanting ceremony; it wasn't a real exorcism, so it only lasted for less than half an hour before it ended.
"How was it?" The princess was waiting at the door. When she saw Master Wang come out, she immediately went up to ask. However, there was no worry in her eyes, only a strange excitement.
“The eldest prince is indeed troubled by an evil spirit. I just calculated that it is located in the northwest corner of your residence. As for what it is, I need to see it to know.” Master Wang said, referring to the location that Granny Li had told him.
"The northwest corner!? That's not it!" The princess looked shocked, as if she couldn't believe it, but she could hardly hide the smile in her eyes.
"Does the Princess Consort know what it is?" Master Wang's acting skills were also quite good, cooperating with the Princess Consort's performance.
"Master Wang, you may not know this, but this northwest corner is the courtyard of our concubine. Are you sure you've calculated it correctly, Master Wang? Or could it be a misunderstanding?" Granny Li said hypocritically, putting on a good show.
"Let me calculate again." Master Wang closed his eyes and began to calculate. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "There is no mistake. It is in the northwest corner. However, it may not be the concubine. Perhaps this evil thing is hiding in the concubine's courtyard."
"Then what does the Taoist priest think?" Granny Li pressed.
“The back courtyard of this mansion is, after all, the residence of the women. How about this, I, the humble Taoist priest, will accompany the Fujin (principal wife) to take a look. We only need to gather everyone from the concubine’s courtyard in the courtyard,” said Taoist priest Wang.
"Well... alright, then Master Wang, please come with me." The princess seemed to hesitate for a moment before finally agreeing.
After the Fujin (principal wife) led her entourage into the backyard, Su Xiaobao received the news immediately. He quickly led his men to follow behind her, but instead of stopping her directly, he followed from a distance. After all, nothing had happened yet, and his rash obstruction would likely result in the Fujin punishing him. Although he was a servant in the front yard, the Fujin was, after all, the mistress of the mansion, and if he offended her first, she would indeed have the right to punish him.
Two large groups of people headed towards Luoxue Pavilion, leaving the maids and eunuchs on the way looking at each other in bewilderment. They were curious but dared not approach to inquire, and could only watch the crowds disappear into the distance before gathering together to gossip.
Meanwhile, Lady Li also received the news, but she couldn't leave her house. She could only send Li Zhongde out to gather information. She had heard some rumors these past few days, but ultimately didn't believe the Fujin (the wife of the Fujin) would dare to truly harm Lady Yin. Now, upon hearing that the Fujin was leading a group of people menacingly towards Luoxue Pavilion, Lady Li immediately became restless. If she weren't confined to her quarters, she would definitely go to see for herself. After all, she would be happy if either the Fujin or Lady Yin suffered!
The princess and the Taoist priest Wang arrived at Luoxue Pavilion quickly, but they were stopped at the door before they could even enter.
