Yinchuan Inn.

Ji Zhao was brewing medicine.

“If you want to completely cure the poison in your body, you still need to take a medicinal bath.” Immortal Crane, who was still a little worried, took her pulse agam.

“Master, did you just say that this poison is called Fragrant Beauty?” Ji Zhao frowned and asked curiously, “What kind of poison is Fragrant Beauty?”

“Cough, cough.” Immortal Crane’s eyes flashed with discomfort. “I’m ashamed to say this, but this Fragrant Beauty was made by me…”

“Ah?” Ji Zhao’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“I’ve been studying medicine since I was young. Later on, I realized that making poisons is more interesting. In my spare time, I made some poisons, and the Fragrant Beauty is one of them.” Immortal Crane stroked his beard, his eyes filled with helplessness. “It’s just that I didn’t expect you, stupid disciple, to fall for it!”

“I was too stupid…” Ji Zhao blinked aggrievedly. “But Master, since you made this Fragrant Beauty, you should know who has the Fragrant Beauty in their hands, right?”

Facing Ji Zhao’s expectant gaze, Immortal Crane shook his head helplessly. “I casually made the Fragrant Beauty. Later on, I was short of money, so I sold the formula…’

“However, my dear disciple, don’t worry. You’re not deeply poisoned.

Furthermore, I’ve already given you acupuncture and poisoned your blood. In a while, you can soak in the medicinal bath for another fifteen minutes. You’ll definitely be safe and sound.” The Immortal Crane patted his chest and promised.

“Okay.” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and casually asked, “Master, can you give me some of that Fragrant Beauty too?’

‘What do you need that for?”

“An eye for an eye, of course!” Ji Zhao said with a smile.

When it was almost dusk, the door of the examination venue was finally opened.

The examinees left the arena in an orderly manner. However, the expressions on everyone’s faces were different. Some were happy and full of smiles, and some were frowning—

Ji Zhao, who was waiting outside the courtyard, immediately saw Shen Yao standing in the crowd. She couldn’t help but smile. The pride in her eyes was self-evident.

At that moment, Shen Yao also saw the bright smile on Ji Zhao’s face. He immediately quickened his pace and approached in a hurry.

However, an uninvited guest stopped Shen Yao and blocked Ji Zhao’s line of sight.

Ji Zhao narrowed her eyes as she looked at the jade-green graceful figure.

This figure was very familiar!

“Young Master Shen,” Lu Hongshan boldly stopped Shen Yao. “I am Lu

Hongshan, the daughter of the Yunchuan General Judge, Lu Min.’

Shen Yao frowned and walked past her expressionlessly. From the beginning to the end, he did not even look at her.

“Young Master Shen, my maidservant offended you in front of Shao Family Wontons this morning, so I specially came to apologize,” Lu Hongshan explained aggrievedly.

A graceful lady with tears in her eyes always attracted the pity of others.

“Your family’s upbringing is not a great as it seems,” Shen Yao replied indifferently. The sarcasm in his words was self-evident.

The maidservant of the Lu Residence tried to forcefully buy something from him and was completely unreasonable.

This young lady from the Lu Residence blocked the path of a stranger in public. She did not have the demeanor of a lady at all.

“Young Master Shen, are you angry?” Lu Hongshan looked at him pitifully. The tear in the corner of her eye fell quietly. “It’s all my fault for not being strict enough and letting my maidservant offend you. As an apology, I want to treat you to a cup of tea. I wonder if Young Master is willing to do me the honor?” “No need.”

“This classmate, how can you be so unreasonable when a beauty is inviting you?’

“That’s right, that’s right. Didn’t Miss Lu already apologize? Why are you still unwilling to let it go?”

Soon, people started discussing.

Shen Yao’s face was tense, and his gaze became colder.

Ji Zhao, who was standing not far away, crossed her arms and watched this scene curiously. The expression on her face was even more excited.

The world would always pity the weak. Even if they did not understand the entire situation, it did not stop them from criticizing the other party from the moral high ground.

“Zhaozhao, come here.”

From the beginning to the end, Shen Yao’s gaze was fixed on Ji Zhao’s face. Seeing the smile on her face, Shen Yao could only look at her for help. “Eh? Miss, you know my husband?” Ji Zhao walked to the two of them with a graceful smile and deliberately emphasized the word ‘husband’. ‘You…” Lu Hongshan did not expect this woman to be fine.

She had clearly used the Fragrant Beauty!

“So this Madam is Brother Shen’s wife?” Lu Hongshan pretended to be surprised and smiled.

“We don’t know each other. You shouldn’t call me Brother Shen.” Shen Yao frowned and said in a deep voice.

Lu Hongshan choked. She had already introduced herself, but Shen Yao was still so merciless…

This man was indeed interesting.

“Dear, what exactly is going on?” Ji Zhao gently tugged at the corner of Shen Yao’s clothes and pretended to be ignorant as she asked with a smile.

Shen Yao smiled helplessly and gently explained what had happened outside Shao Family Wontons this morning.

“So that’s what happened.” Ji Zhao smiled in realization. She immediately turned around and smiled at Lu Hongshan. “Miss Lu, you have to teach the servants well in the future. Fortunately, my husband has a good temper. If it were any other man, he might have strangled your maidservant to death. After all, how can a maidservant of a good family rush to pull a man’s sleeve? She’s not a performer in the brothels, right?’

Ji Zhao’s tone was extremely gentle, but every word she said was like a sharp knife.

“Madam Shen, are you mistaken…” Lu Hongshan clenched her hands in her sleeves, but she still looked aggrieved and pitiful.

“Mistaken?’ Ji Zhao waved her hand. “Miss Lu, I think you might have misunderstood. I won’t misunderstand you. I believe in my husband. He’s a gentleman. He definitely won’t do anything to bully the weak. Besides, this matter is indeed your maid’s fault, but I think it’s more your responsibility. However, my husband is magnanimous. I accept your apology on his behalf, but can you make way? You’re blocking our way home. ”

Ji Zhao suddenly tiptoed and whispered into Shen Yao’s ear, “Husband, aren’t the girls in the prefecture city a little too confident? It’s fine if they’re not as good-looking as me, but they don’t seem to be in their right mind! Don’t the young ladies from noble families pride themselves on staying at home and not revealing their faces? How do they dare to stop men on the streets? It’s really strange!’

Although Ji Zhao deliberately lowered her voice, Lu Hongshan still heard every word. At this moment, her expression became even uglier.

“Husband, let’s go back to the inn?” Ji Zhao shook his arm and said with a bright smile, “1 want to eat your plain noodles.”

“Okay.”

At this moment, Lu Hongshan only felt an unknown anger rising from the bottom of her heart!

When she returned to the Lu Residence, she was so angry that she smashed a whole set of high-quality tea sets. Then, she picked up a whip filled with barbs and whipped Xing’er ruthlessly. Listening to Xing’er’s screams, Lu Hongshan felt much better.

Shen Yao, who had returned to the inn, was furious when he heard that Ji Zhao had been poisoned..
