Chapter 762 The Princess Arrives

Lin Menghan replied: "After the battle that day, the remaining forces of the Tianxiahui took refuge in Li Chengdao."

"All the properties of Tianxiahui have been transferred to Li Chengdao, and the two elders Wu Yue and Zuo Si have surrendered. However, Hua Yiyi and Xiang Nanchun are missing. They may have been killed by King Wu, and their bodies have not been found."

Ji Xianxian was slightly surprised: "I didn't expect Hua Yiyi to run away."

Lin Menghan said in surprise: "Hua Yiyi ran away?"

Ji Xianxian said: "Long Chengen only killed Song Bai and Mi He, but not Hua Yiyi. She is missing, so she ran away."

When they were in Wangqing Pavilion, Long Chen told the story of Jinling City, and Long Chen did not kill Hua Yiyi.

Lin Menghan couldn't believe it: "Hua Yiyi, as the chief hall master of Nanliang, actually ran away with oil on her feet at the critical moment?"

Ji Xianxian said: "Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes. The situation was critical at that time, so it was normal for her to run away."

Lin Menghan did not continue talking about this matter because she was also the chief hall leader and it was inappropriate to continue talking about it.

"Where is Ji Ba? How is it now?"

Lin Menghan replied: "Lying in the Imperial Hospital, I am neither dead nor alive. I am just a living dead."

"Both sides used Ji Ba as a bargaining chip. Li Chengdao used this to restrain those who threatened Tianxiahui from doing things. Wu Yue also used this as a condition to ask Li Chengdao to continue treatment."

Ji Xianxian nodded and said lightly: "When the world is at its peak, he doesn't want to take advantage of this to restore the country. He only wants to enjoy the glory and wealth. He deserves to be here today."

Ji Xianxian and Ji Ba have no brother-sister relationship, let alone sentimentality.

Lin Menghan said: "Wu Yue and the others are familiar with the affairs of the Tianxiahui, and Li Chengdao also intends to support the Tianxiahui and suppress our Dragon Gang's business..."

Lin Menghan was about to report the matter to Ji Xianxian, but she did not expect that Ji Xianxian arrived at Jinling City at the right time.

Ji Xianxian said: "This palace is here to handle this matter. You don't need to ask any more questions. Just go about business as usual."

Lin Menghan bowed and said, "I obey."

Ji Xianxian thought for a while and said, "Let them come in, and I will talk to them."

Lin Menghan exited the room, and the other three branch hall masters entered one after another. Ji Xianxian asked questions one by one.

....

Nanliangtai Hospital.

Wu Yue walked out of the ward with a sad look on his face, feeling very heavy in his heart.

Ji Ba's injury did not improve at all and could only maintain his life.

The medicinal materials needed every day are worth thousands of gold, and only Tai Hospital can maintain them.

Of course, there must be conditions for Tai Hospital to spend so much on Ji Ba.

Duan Juncai, the Minister of Household Affairs, came every day to urge Wu Yue and Zuo Si to rebuild Tianxiahui's business system as soon as possible.

"hateful!"

Wu Yue cursed fiercely and walked towards his residence.

His residence is not in the palace, but in a mansion under surveillance in the west of the city.

Walking out of Taiyuan Hospital, people were coming and going outside, and it was still lively.

The aftermath of the battle in Jinling City has faded, and everyone seems to have forgotten that tragic fight.

Turning the corner, Wu Yue walked into a secluded alley.

"Elder Wu."

A voice sounded and Wu Yue stopped.

I turned around and saw a person standing behind me.

"Xuanjizi."

This person is Xuanjizi.

"Did the elder forget something?"

Xuanjizi walked over slowly, looking unkind.

Wu Yue sneered, took out a pill from his sleeve and shot it.

Xuanjizi took it, put it in his sleeve, and asked, "Have you not figured out a way to completely detoxify it?"

Wu Yue said coldly: "How can I undo the poison so easily caused by the poisonous lunatic? I said I came up with the recipe, do you dare to ask for it?"

Xuanjizi snorted coldly, shook his Taoist robe and left.

Xuan Jizi would come to Wu Yue every once in a while to ask for the antidote, and Wu Yue would also give him a pill.

But this elixir does not detoxify, because Wu Yue does not know what kind of poison Song Bai has.

Maybe...Song Bai didn't poison him at all.

I remember when I was joking with Song Bai, Wu Yue asked Song Bai, what is the most poisonous poison in the world?

Song Bai said that the most poisonous poison in the world is suspicion.

As long as a person suspects that he has been poisoned, he will try his best to prepare various antidotes for himself, and finally take the antidote until he dies.

Wu Yue only regarded it as a joke at the time.

Now that I think about it, maybe Song Bai really did this.

With this in mind, Wu Yue walked into the mansion prepared by Li Chengdao. Two Imperial Guards were guarding the door, and all the servants inside were from the Imperial City Department.

Wu Yue, Zuo Si, and the backbone of the Tianxiahui all live here and are all under surveillance.

"The elder is back."

A man in his 40s came over to say hello.

This man is the housekeeper of the mansion, and everyone calls him Lao Li.

Wu Yue ignored the housekeeper, went straight into the room, and closed the door behind his back.

This room used to have various secret compartments, so spies from the Imperial City Department could eavesdrop and watch Wu Yue's actions.

Later, Wu Yue got angry and killed several spies, and the secret cells of the agency were cancelled.

So, at least in the room, Wu Yue was free.

"It's his grandma's fault. I have lived for decades, never have I ever experienced such a bird-like attitude!"

Wu Yue slapped the table with his hand, making a crackling sound.

The housekeeper Lao Li was eavesdropping outside the wall. He was startled by the sudden sound and hurriedly left Wu Yue's room.

Fortunately for the others, Wu Yue and Zuo Si were unscrupulous and really dared to kill people from the Imperial City Division.

In the room, Wu Yue picked up the kettle and wanted to drink water, but found that the kettle was empty.

Wu Yue opened the door and scolded: "Old Li, you don't even give me any water to drink. You want me to die of thirst! Fetch some water!"

The butler immediately asked his servant to boil water and bring it in.

After closing the door, Wu Yue brewed a pot of tea, poured it into a bowl and waited for it to cool down before drinking it.

"Elder Wu."

A woman's voice sounded, Wu Yue was startled and stood up suddenly.

A woman wearing golden clothes slowly walked over.

Wu Yue looked at this woman and was stunned.

"Princess..."

This person is none other than Ji Xianxian.

"Long time no see, Elder Wu."

Ji Xianxian walked over slowly and sat on the chair at the main table.

Wu Yue bowed respectfully to Ji Xianxian: "My subordinate, Wu Yue, pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Ji Xianxian nodded slightly, raised her jade hand, and said, "No courtesy."

Wu Yue stood up straight and asked: "Why are you here today, princess?"

Ji Xianxian did not answer immediately, but said: "Where is Elder Zuo?"

Wu Yue immediately replied: "It should be in the room."

Ji Xianxian said calmly: "Call us together."

Wu Yue immediately opened the door, walked to Zuo Si's door, and knocked hard.

"Who is it? Knock your mother!"

Zuo Si's temper was even more violent. No matter who it was, he scolded him first as a sign of respect.

Wu Yue said: "It's me, come to my room and have a drink with me!"

After saying that, Wu Yue went back to the room first.

Zuo Si opened the door slowly and entered Wu Yue's room wearing wooden clogs.

The two of them often did this, and the spies from the Imperial City Department were not surprised and didn't bother to ask.

Zuo Si entered the room, and Wu Yue immediately closed the door.

"What are you doing? It's mysterious."

As soon as Zuo Sizang finished muttering, he saw Ji Xianxian sitting on the main seat.

Zuo Si hurriedly bowed and said: "My subordinate Zuo Si, I would like to pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Ji Xianxian nodded slightly, pointed to the chair next to him, and said, "Please sit down, both of you."

The two were ordered to sit down.
