The ice cellar door opened.
Master Xie was held up by the black-armored guards, his lower jaw was dislocated. Baisui took a handful of crushed ice in each hand and stuffed them directly into Xie Xian's mouth.
He kept whimpering, and his snot and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Qing Wu sat on the stone steps, eating ice cream and giving instructions: "Bai Sui, can you do it? If you can't get it in, why don't you find a stick and poke your uncle with it~"
"Look at your speed. The ice in my uncle's mouth has melted, and you haven't even filled his mouth yet."
"At this rate, when will we be able to clean our uncle's throat?"
Baisui muttered: "It would be better to just cut off his tongue. It's a waste of ice to wash his tongue with ice."
"Rude, really rude~"
Qing Wu sighed as she finished her third bowl of ice yogurt. She still felt a little unsatisfied. At this moment, a strange sound floated into her ears.
Qing Wu listened attentively for a while and narrowed her beautiful eyes.
The judge's pen also exclaimed, "Isn't this a spell to summon the gods? Is there someone performing a shaman dance in the Duke Dingguo's mansion?"
Qing Wu stood up: "I'm full, it's time to digest the food."
"You guys continue, and make sure to rinse your uncle's mouth for a while. It's really embarrassing for the Duke's Mansion if you keep swearing like that~"
Baisui responded promptly.
Luqiao and Hongrui led Qingwu out. The steward next to them thought Qingwu had made enough trouble, but she asked people to continue. His old face was frowned and bitter again.
"Princess, why don't you let the soldiers take a break? If they keep going like this, the ice cellar will be destroyed."
Qing Wu laughed and thought that this steward was also a wonderful person.
He has been staring at the side for a long time. Is he worried about Master Xie or his own ice cellar?
"Don't worry, sir. King Yan is rich. If it's destroyed, we can ask him to pay for it."
Qing Wu was very cool and said, "Where is that?"
"That's Young Master Ling's yard."
Xie Ling? Xiao Chenyan's unlucky little cousin?
Qing Wu thought about it and walked over. The steward wanted to stop her, but Qing Wu said:
"Send someone to bring your Duke here. If it's any later, we'll have to prepare a feast for your young master."
An'eryuan, Xie Ling's courtyard.
But at this moment I am overjoyed.
The wife of Duke Dingguo kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief, and the maids and servants beside her kept saying auspicious words.
"This time, the young master has turned a disaster into a blessing. Not only has he regained consciousness, but he has also become more intelligent."
"We must inform the Duke and the old lady of this great event as soon as possible!"
The young man sat on the bed, his eyes rolling around. His hand was held by the wife of Duke Dingguo, who wanted to pull it out with some uneasiness.
"Mom, I'm hungry. I want to eat meat." The young man said, swallowing hard. He wanted to speak more, but was glared at by the old Taoist in yellow robe standing beside the bed, so he shut his mouth.
Lady Dingguo was stunned for a moment, then she was overjoyed: "Okay! I'll have someone make it for you right away!"
Her son, who had been stupid and foolish, suddenly became smart after waking up. He used to need reminders to eat, drink, defecate and urinate, but now he would take the initiative to clamor for food. Lady Dingguo was so happy that she couldn't think of anything else.
After wiping away her tears, Lady Dingguo stood up and thanked the old Taoist priest in yellow robes:
"Thank you, Taoist Baimei. You are the great benefactor of Duke Dingguo's Mansion. This lady will never forget your kindness."
"These gifts are for the Taoist priest."
The maidservant next to her immediately handed over the box, in which were several gold bars and treasures, and a thick stack of land deeds beside them.
Bai Mei smiled, with an air of immortality: "Madam, you are too kind. This is what people of my generation who practice cultivation should do."
"As for these yellow and white things, I won't mention them."
As Baimei said this, he was about to leave, like an expert who was not moved by money and only cared about his country.
Seeing this, Lady Dingguo was even more impressed. How could she let her benefactor leave empty-handed? She wanted to ask someone to give her some generous gifts. But she heard a cry from outside:
"Who are you?!"
The wife of Duke Dingguo was also surprised. She turned her head and saw a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes walking through the door, followed by the mansion's steward.
Lady Dingguo frowned: "Who are you and why are you trespassing into my son's yard?"
The words were directed at Qing Wuxian, but the one looking at her was the steward.
The steward was sweating profusely. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Qing Wu say, "If Madam Dingguo doesn't want your son to die, she should quickly tie up this swindler."
The wife of Duke Dingguo was stunned.
The steward quickly said, "Madam, this is Princess Yan."
Baimei's expression changed slightly, but he was not flustered. He said, "I have met Princess Yan. I wonder why Princess Yan said that?"
"Yes." Lady Dingguo also said, "Master Baimei is my son's savior, not a liar."
"Princess Yan, coming here uninvited, isn't that a bit presumptuous?"
The wife of Duke Dingguo showed displeasure on her face. Anyone would be unhappy if such a happy moment was disrupted.
Moreover, Qing Wu's reckless intrusion would be considered extremely rude in anyone's home. Moreover, Lady Dingguo and Xie Yun were deeply in love, and she was also aware of Xie Yun's true attitude towards Xiao Chenyan.
When he looked at Qing Wu, there was naturally a hint of displeasure and wariness in his eyes.
After all, in everyone's eyes, the marriage granted by the Eastern Palace was an insult, not to mention her identity as the daughter of Queen Yun, which would attract hatred.
"Madam Dingguo, are you sure that the person who woke up is really your son?" Qing Wu said with a hint of sarcasm.
Baimei's heart skipped a beat, and the look he gave Qingwu became sharper.
Lady Dingguo was startled for a moment, and the next moment she heard Xie Ling scream behind her.
"Get out! Get her out!!"
"Ah ...
Xie Ling now looked insane and crazy, like a small animal with its fur standing on end.
Qing Wu looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of teasing.
The wife of Duke Dingguo hurried to comfort her son. Bai Mei saw the situation and said, "Madam, the young master's soul has just returned to his body. It is unstable and cannot stand being dirty! If he is frightened again, I am afraid his soul will leave his body again!"
Lady Dingguo was horrified when she heard this. She was afraid that Qingwu would scare the child if she stayed any longer, so she forced herself to follow the last etiquette and said nothing bad.
"Princess Yan, please leave."
After that, he said to the servants around him: "Why are you still standing there? Princess Yan, please leave!"
The steward was sweating profusely, he remembered that Qing Wu had asked him to bring the Duke here before, and he felt that this moody Princess Yan would not do something without a purpose.
But now my young master is obviously fine.
He thought that with Qing Wu's personality she would definitely make a big fuss again, but in the end she just shrugged.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
"But don't regret it, Madam Duke."
This unlucky guy is Xiao Chenyan's cousin, not hers. She has said what she should say. If his mother doesn't believe it, what can she do?
How can a ghost have such a good temper and patience?
Qing Wu left so decisively that everyone else in the room was stunned.
But when she went out, she almost bumped into someone.
When she raised her eyes, she met Xie Shu's clear yet distant eyes.
Xie Shu didn't expect Qingwu to do this. After a slight pause, he stepped aside and said, "Princess."
Qing Wu was also surprised to run into Xie Shu.
She looked at his jade-like face for a while and sighed in her heart.
Forget it, after all, Xie Shu was her childhood sweetheart.
Qing Wu whispered, "The charlatan inside has attracted a demon to possess your brother. Thank you, young master, for being careful."
A strange look flashed in Xie Shu's eyes. Qing Wu left these words and walked away leisurely.
Lady Dingguo heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that it was her eldest son who had come.
"Ziyuan, come and see, Ling'er is awake now. He was just complaining about being hungry."
"Thanks to Taoist Master Baimei, you must thank him on behalf of my dear."
"That Princess Yan is also slandering the Taoist priest's innocence for no reason."
The man next to him, Bai Mei, kept saying it was okay, looking very magnanimous.
After Xie Shu came in, he didn't respond, but just observed "Xie Ling" on the bed.
Since Qing Wu left, Xie Ling has been at peace, but his eyes are still rolling around, his hands are curled up like an animal, and he scratches his ears and cheeks from time to time, mumbling:
"Hungry, I'm so hungry..."
"Meat, eat meat..."
Lady Dingguo Duke hurried to comfort him, her face full of love and heartache.
Bai Mei felt that this young master Xie had not spoken since he came in, and the way he had been staring at Xie Ling was a bit intimidating, and he was worried that if he stayed any longer, he would be exposed. "Madam, I'm leaving now."
Lady Dingguo had someone pass on the newly prepared thank-you gift, and Baimei did not refuse it.
Just as he was about to pass by Xie Shu, he heard this nobleman, who had been silent since he came in, speak coldly:
"I'm afraid Taoist Master Baimei can't leave yet."
