The two separated at the crossroads. Jiang Muxia climbed over the wall and entered the house. When she reached the door of the west wing, she suddenly saw a figure standing up and said in a low voice, "You are finally back."

The sudden appearance of the person startled her. She recognized the owner of the voice and asked in confusion, "Uncle Feng, why are you squatting at my door in the middle of the night?"

Before he could answer, the door opened, Jiang Hongxin pulled her into the house, and leaned over to thank Feng Baichuan.

"Uncle Feng, thank you so much for tonight. Go back to bed and I'll talk to her."

"Okay, remember to let her drink the medicine."

Jiang Hongxin lit the light, pushed her onto the bed, and said to her seriously, "I'm afraid your father has guessed it. Doctor Chu took your pulse, and asked someone to prepare medicine and boil it overnight, and sent it over. He just said that Weidong found an expert and boiled a dose of medicine for you to drink first. Naturally, your father didn't dare to delay, so he took the medicine and knocked on the door quickly, but no one opened it for a long time. He was so anxious that he wanted to bang the door, but fortunately Uncle Feng stopped him. He said that I was busy outside all day and was too tired to sleep. I persuaded your father to give him the medicine, and he got up early in the morning to bring it to you."

"Does he believe this?"

"That's why I said he saw it but couldn't expose it, so he pretended to believe Uncle Feng's words."

How could she know that Jiang Yuzhou thought Feng Baichuan knew that Jiang Hongxin ran out to meet her lover at night, so he didn't want to stand still. Jiang Yuzhou also planned to wait until daytime to let Lu Chaoyun come over and persuade her to find a decent husband and start a family as soon as possible.

Jiang Muxia obediently drank the medicine and lay down to rest. She was really tired after running around outside for two consecutive nights.

Sure enough, during the day, after giving Jiang Muxia the medicine, Lu Chaoyun did not leave in a hurry, but took Jiang Hongxin to persuade her in a roundabout way.

Perhaps Lu Chaoyun's turn was too sharp, and Jiang Hongxin didn't understand it at all. She just thought that she was asked by her mother to urge her to get married.

She had no choice but to keep refusing. Seeing that she never understood, Lu Chaoyun became extremely anxious.

Jiang Muxia was lying on the bed, listening to the two people's irrelevant conversation, her face flushed. Finally, Lu Chaoyun said bluntly, "You are a girl, you can't run out to meet people every night, be careful of being deceived."

She couldn't help it and burst out laughing. This laugh exposed herself and also startled Lu Chaoyun so much that he jumped up.

Many years later, Lu Chaoyun mentioned this incident in front of their children. They looked at each other and laughed. Lu Chaoyun realized that the poison in her daughter's body had been cured long ago, and she had been lying in bed pretending for several days.

"My daughter is awake." She didn't care about Jiang Hongxin and shouted to the outside, "Dad, come quickly, my daughter is awake. The master's medicine is really effective."

Everyone in the family came running over after hearing the noise. Li Jiyi was happy but also a little worried. He ran to her and asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to eat?"

Jiang Muxia smiled and shook her head, and said to her parents and siblings: "Don't worry, I'm fine, nothing happened."

She wanted to get out of bed, but Li Jiyi held her down and warned her, "Stay still. You just woke up, you need to take good care of yourself, and you are not allowed to go anywhere."

He stood up and left, saying as he walked out, "Aunt, I'm going home to tell my parents that my sister has woken up, so they can rest assured. I'm also bringing two hens to make soup for my sister."

In the blink of an eye, his footsteps disappeared in the yard.

Lu Chaoyun looked at his disappearing back with a loving face, and said with satisfaction: "Our Ji Yi is still the one who knows how to care for others."

Jiang Muxia felt something was wrong with what she heard. She looked up and saw Jiang Hongxin staring at her with a look of anticipation. She curled her lips and lay down again.

Although her smile completely exposed her pretending to be asleep, it did make it more convenient for her to go out.

During the day, he found an excuse and sneaked to a farmhouse in the west of the city.

Weidong and Cao Junan are both here.

Tang Zhongbai handed her a letter, and she recognized the handwriting as Xu Da's.

She read it carefully, smiled, and handed the letter to Jiang Hongxin.

"Great. Our plan worked."

"As long as he moves, he will surely die." Cao Ke laughed, "My father and Prince Rong each led an army of 30,000, attacking from two sides and surrounding the sea. Brother Xu's Qingyi Sect has blocked the sea route, so even if he can fly, he can't escape death."

Everyone talks about the King of Lingnan as if he is sure of victory. Wu Jun is too eager for quick success and is bound to fail sooner or later.

It's just that in this life, he failed earlier and more miserably, Jiang Muxia thought.

"Yes, yes. Your great task is now accomplished. Can you remove the seal on my wine house?"

“Don’t you have hands? Do you still need me to help you?” Wei Dong rolled his eyes at him in dissatisfaction.

Cao Junan said angrily, "You are so good, Wei Laoliu, is this how you act as the acting county magistrate?"

"Alright, alright." Tang Zhongbai was annoyed by their noise, so he stood up and announced to them, "I'll come to your house early tomorrow morning and remove the seal myself, okay?"

Wei Dong asked seriously: "Have you decided to return?"

On the seventh day after they were poisoned to death, Tang Zhongbai appeared at the Lai Ju Tavern in the west of the city early in the morning.

While removing the seal with his own hands, he set off a long string of firecrackers.

This attracted the citizens of the county to come and watch the fun, and they realized that the county magistrate's move was actually to lure out a traitor. Now that the plan was accomplished, County Magistrate Tang retired and returned to his post as county magistrate.

The people were speculating whether he would be promoted and transferred out of Suanzao County since he had made such a great contribution.

After running with his younger brother and sister, Li Jiyi returned to Jiang's house in a dejected mood. He went back to Xigang Village without even eating.

Jiang Yuzhou and his wife sighed. They had never been optimistic about their daughter's marriage to Tang Zhongbai. They thought that Tang Zhongbai was gone and their daughter, who had finally saved her life, would be reunited with Li Jiyi. They didn't expect that everything was a lie.

On the afternoon of the eighth day, Yin Yusheng sent Liu Yidao, who was living in his home, back to the county.

When Jiang Muxia saw Liu Yidao, his face was even paler than the first time he saw him, and there was no trace of life in his eyes.

Yin Yusheng secretly told her that Xu Da had sent him a message saying that Liu Yidao's mother had committed suicide after Wu Jun's defeat, and Fuzi's mother had been rescued and sent to Wuquan Villa.

"His mother is finally free. Even if she was rescued, she couldn't survive after so many years of humiliation. Some people suffer when they live, and death is better than life. Maybe this is her best destination."

"may be."

"Fuzi hasn't come back yet. You're in the North City compound during the day. Why don't you bring him to live at my house? His adoptive father can treat his illness and take care of his body here."

Yin Yusheng shook his head, "I told him he didn't want to."

"I'll go." Jiang Muxia drove the carriage to the tavern and brought the person back.

Although Liu Yidao was still in a low mood, he no longer resisted. He took his medicine and ate on time every day. He would also take time to go to the North City Compound with Yin Yusheng to help cook for the patients.

Yin Yusheng asked her puzzledly, "What on earth did you do to make him change so much?"

Jiang Muxia smiled and said, "I didn't do anything. I just said one word to him."

"What?"

"I said, his mother knows that he is doing well now and is getting healthier and healthier. She picked up the sword again and read the Art of War, just like his father."
