Chapter 573 Xu Yiyi and the Fake Gold
Chapter 573 Xu Yiyi and the Fake Gold
After Xie Ying succeeded, she immediately took back Xiangxiang, quietly left the main courtyard, and headed to the location of the two seeds.
The City Lord's Mansion was very large, and there were many patrolling soldiers. Xie Ying needed to be careful to avoid those soldiers, which inevitably delayed her for some time.
A quarter of an hour later, she "saw" two people she hadn't seen for a long time - Xu Yiyi and the fake daughter.
This is the servants' room of the City Lord's Mansion, so the two of them are now servants of the City Lord's Mansion.
Before coming to Yan State, Xie Ying had never thought that she would see them here.
Back then, Xu Yiyi cut the tendons of Mei Qingchuan's hands and feet and fled with her daughter. Although she heard the news, the distance was too far and she really didn't know where the mother and daughter fled to.
Who would have thought that they actually fled to the State of Yan and became slaves of the Lord of Xijin City.
Moreover, the tattoo on Xu Yiyi's face has disappeared, leaving only an ugly scar.
Her daughter was a healthy child, but she was too frail. A single cold wind would probably make her seriously ill. Unless she took good medicine, she wouldn't live to adulthood.
In the original book, Tu Jiaojiao had no idea that her biological daughter had been switched, and she thought that she had failed to take good care of the fetus and gave birth to a daughter with congenital defects. So she always felt that she owed this fake daughter, and was very devoted to her, feeding her very carefully, and even neglected her son Xie Di.
Later, something happened in Tujiazhuang, and she fled to the capital with her children. On the way, she spent a lot of energy trying to save the life of her fake daughter.
Xie Jia slandered her as an assassin and had her hacked to death. When Xie Xiu arrived, she was covered in knife wounds and bleeding all over the floor. She was only breathing her last breath, but she still hadn't forgotten this fake daughter and begged Xie Xiu to raise her to adulthood.
Because of Tu Jiaojiao's words, Xie Xiu felt so much pain in her that he was afraid she would melt if he held her in his mouth, and afraid she would fall if he held her in his hands.
After he became rich, he must have given his fake daughter a lot of good medicine and asked imperial physicians to take care of her.
In this way, the fake daughter can survive to adulthood.
Now she follows Xu Yiyi as a servant. Without Tu Jiaojiao and Xie Xiu who are devoted to her, Xie Ying is really curious about how long she can live this time.
However, Xu Yiyi is a Xia citizen. I wonder if the city lord will regard Xu Yiyi as a spy after he wakes up?
When Xie Ying thought of this possibility, she couldn't help but feel a little gloating.
She let Xiangxiang devour one-third of Xu Yiyi's vitality, replaced the seeds in the mother and daughter, and then left the City Lord's Mansion quietly.
When she and Xiangxiang had just traveled through time, their strength had been weakened to the most basic level, and the seeds left in the mother and daughter naturally had limited power.
If the distance had not been too great over the years and she had not activated these two seeds, they would have been completely consumed long ago.
Xiangxiang’s strength is now much greater than before, and the seeds she produces are much more powerful than before.
With them, even if she went to the capital of Yan State, she could still sense the situation of the mother and daughter.
After Xie Ying left the City Lord's Mansion, she quickly left Xijin Mansion before dawn and rode her horse towards the capital of Yan State.
On the way, he changed into Yan State attire.
However, as a little girl riding a horse alone, it was inevitable that she would arouse suspicion, so after dawn, Xie Ying hid directly in the mountains and forests and lay on the branches to sleep.
She would continue on her way only after dark.
Just as she was soundly sleeping, the Lord of Xijin City woke up and soon discovered that he was weak!
He is not a fool since he can become the lord of Xijin City and guard the border of Yan State.
After realizing his sudden weakness, he immediately asked his confidant to call the doctor from the City Lord's Mansion and asked him to treat him.
When the doctor heard about his condition, he immediately suspected that he had been poisoned.
The Lord of Xijin City was furious and ordered the entire City Lord's Mansion to be sealed off and a thorough investigation to be conducted.
At first he did not suspect Xu Yiyi, because Xu Yiyi was just a maid of the city lord's wife, and she was ugly, and the city lord's wife did not like to have her serve her closely.
If Xu Yiyi had not been good at designing beautiful clothes and jewelry, and had not had a unique skill in makeup, with her status and honor, she would not have been qualified to stay in the City Lord's Mansion, or even serve the City Lord's wife.
However, she was just helping the city lord's wife and had no qualifications to appear in front of the Xijin City Lord.
Therefore, the Lord of Xijin City did not think of Xu Yiyi at first. It was only when his subordinates reminded him that he remembered that there was such a person in the mansion.
Thinking that Xu Yiyi was a criminal who had escaped from the Xia Kingdom, and that the crime was poisoning, the face of the Lord of Xijin City instantly became extremely ugly.
So, Xu Yiyi, who was designing new clothes for the city lord's wife, was soon captured by the city lord's guards.
Xu Chonghua, who was following her, was also arrested.
Xu Chonghua is the name of the fake daughter in this life.
After her rebirth, she learned that Xu Yiyi's switch in this life had failed and she was no longer a daughter of the Xie family, so she gave herself a new name, Xu Chonghua.
Chonghua is a compliment given to Yu Shun, and is also used to refer to emperors.
Xu Chonghua liked these two words very much, and felt that these two words indicated that when she lived her next life, she would be graceful and noble, and become the mother of the country.
However, Xu Yiyi felt that the word "Chonghua" was too precious, so she only told others that her daughter's name was Xu Anan, and warned her not to reveal the name "Xu Chonghua" to others.
At this moment, the two were suddenly caught. Xu Yiyi was barely able to remain calm, but Xu Chonghua was filled with panic and soon he covered his chest and couldn't breathe.
She wrinkled her face and pleaded pitifully, "Mother, mother, I feel so uncomfortable... My heart hurts... I can't breathe..."
"An An!" Xu Yiyi looked at her worriedly, and then said to the others, "Please spare my daughter. She's just a child, she knows nothing, and she was born with a deficiency, so she's very weak..."
However, just as she said this, the guard pinched her arm hard, and her whole face wrinkled in pain.
The other party snorted disdainfully, "You vicious woman, you're on the verge of death, and you still want us to let your daughter go!"
Xu Yiyi's face changed drastically. How could she care about her daughter anymore?
She asked hurriedly, "I have been loyal to my duties since I came to the City Lord's Mansion. Why do you want to kill me? Is there any misunderstanding?"
"You know what you did!"
The guard snorted coldly and took Xu Yiyi and her daughter directly to the main courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
Xu Yiyi was very nervous and kept thinking about countermeasures.
Suddenly, she saw the city lord's wife.
Xu Yiyi seemed to have seen a life-saving straw. Her eyes immediately lit up and she opened her mouth to ask for help: "Madam..."
However, she had just uttered two words when she was slapped hard in the face by a strong nanny!
"Snapped!"
The opponent's hand was extremely strong, and Xu Yiyi's face was directly twisted by the blow, and her whole head was buzzing.
When Xu Chonghua saw this scene, he was so frightened that he huddled up into a ball, not daring to even breathe.
Because of her congenital deficiency, she had suffered from heart problems since childhood. This was also the case in her previous life, but she was well cared for then, so the condition was not as serious as in this life.
At this moment, she felt a sharp pain in her heart, but she was so scared that she dared not say a word. She could only try to calm her heart and relieve the pain.
She couldn't understand why everything turned out like this when everything was fine last night?
