Chapter 81.1 - She's here to buy soy sauce? (1)

(T/N: Title means along the lines of ‘someone who’s uninvolved just being there’, or to describe

an excessive person.)

Niu Jing and the others all somewhat shockingly looked to Du Xiao Li.

Du Xiao Li brightly smiled and said, “How would I know if someone wants to do something to the

medicine, I’m not a prophet. That’s why I lied about the medicine coated on the box.”

When Wang Ze heard, he angrily berated, “How can you be this black-hearted and crafty at such

a young age!? Deceiving Nuo’er like this, this scheming heart truly is impressive!”

“Junior brother Wang Ze, aren’t your words a little unreasonable?” Niu Jing angrily said when he

heard Wang Ze’s words. “Little junior sister was merely testing whether or not Nuo’er put poison

in the medicine, how can that be counted as being scheming? If one has to say scheming, one

rather wants to ask Nuo’er, why did you want to do something to this pill? If this really were to be

given to the Grand Empress Dowager, then the aftermath would be unthinkable!”

“Shigong, I didn’t do it on purpose, I wasn’t thinking of harming the Grand Empress Dowager, I

was just, just………” Fan Nuo’er looked to Hu Yi Jian’s gaze towards her. Inside was this unspoken

understanding, her thoughts, how could he, someone who has one foot in a con, not

understand?

“Nuo’er, earlier, I gave you a chance. If from the start, you confessed, I would have had this

matter covered up for you. At most, punish you after we return. But………” Hu Yi Jian

heartbrokenly said.

Hu Yi Jian’s words, everyone all understood. Earlier, he’d repeatedly asked Fan Nuo’er whether or

not she’d done anything to the box. If from the start, she confessed the truth, then he wouldn’t

be this heartbroken. After all, he did indeed watch her grow up. But she committed an oense,

attempting in vain to frame someone of the same sect, and didn’t even know to repent. This

made him extremely disappointed in her.

“Shifu, Nou’er just momentarily strayed. In the future, she’ll denitely repent, begging shifu to

please give her another chance!” Wang Ze knelt down pleading.

“Qing Chen.” Hu Yi Jian shouted, ignoring Wang Ze.

“This disciple is here.”

“According to the Medicine King Valley’s rules, framing someone of the same sect, how should

one be dealt with?” Hu Yi Jian asked.

Hearing this, Fan Nuo’er instantly started bawling, crawling to Hu Yi Jian’s side and pulling on this

clothes, as she spoke through tears, “Shigong, shigong, I’m wrong, I won’t dare to ever again, I

really know wrong, shigong, won’t you forgive Nuo’er just this once?”

“Qing Chen, I’m asking you!” Hu Yi Jian said.

“Framing someone of the same sect, driven out of Medicine King Valley without exception,

henceforth no longer someone of the Medicine King Valley!” Qing Chen replied.

“Shigong, shigong, you promised my grandfather before that you would properly take care of me.

Shigong, don’t kick Nuo’er out of the Medicine King Valley! I really know I’m wrong!” The makeup

on Fan Nuo’er’s face was already ruined by the tears.

Hu Yi Jian lowered his head to look to Fan Nuo’er, “I already knew from the start that you were

jealous of Xiao Li’s medical skills, knowing that you were discontent with her. You were rude to

her, I asked her to not bicker with you, but never thought that you would become like this now,harboring malicious thoughts! Moreover, that was the Grand Empress Dowager! If not on your

grandfather’s behalf, I would’ve spoken about this matter while the Emperor and the others were

still here.”

If the Emperor were to nd out about this matter, Fan Nuo’er certainly would have been

executed. That’s why, he didn’t expose Fan Nuo’er earlier. This was already considered

preserving her life!

“Shigong………” Fan Nuo’er stopped crying, as she hazily gazed to Hu Yi Jian with teary eyes.

“Shifu, asking you to please forgive Nuo’er this time!” Wang Ze said as he kowtowed to Hu Yi Jian.

“Wang Ze, you were careless in your discipline, and didn’t stop Nuo’er in time. When we return,

go to the hundred feet cli to reect for a year.” Hu Yi Jian said.

“Shifu, are you really going to be this merciless?” Wang Ze questioned as he looked to Hu Yi Jian.

Hu Yi Jian turned his head to one side, no longer looking at Wang Ze and Fan Nuo’er.

“Since shifu is this merciless and must have Nuo’er forced out of the Medicine King Valley, then

have me expelled as well then.” Wang Ze said, “Last night, I already discovered that Nuo’er went

out, yet didn’t stop her. As her shifu, I’m willing to leave together with her!”

“Shifu……….” Fan Nuo’er turned her head towards Wang Ze and shouted, but couldn’t say

anymore.

“As you please!” With that said, Hu Yi Jian got up and left the guest hall, leaving behind the rest

looking to each other in dismay.

“Nuo’er, this place can no longer tolerate us, let’s go.” Wang Ze stood up and said to Nuo’er who

was sitting on the ground.

“Shifu, where can we go?” Fan Nuo’er’s gaze was distant, as if she didn’t know how to continue

living after leaving Medicine King Valley.

Wang Ze went forward and pulled her up, “You have shifu, there will always be a place for us to

make home!”

“Shifu…….” Fan Nuo’er emotionally looked to Wang Ze and nodded. Seeing Du Xiao Li, she

ruthlessly said: “You better remember, this grievance, I will repay one day!”

“Sigh……..” Qing Chen let out a sigh and looked to Wang Ze, “Your things, when time comes, I’ll

have someone send it to the old Zhang family outside the valley. When you have time, go fetch it.

Remember, once you leave, you can’t do anything that will let down the Medicine King Valley, and

can’t have the Medicine King Valley’s matters spread out, else……..”

“This rule, we know. The power of the Medicine King Command, we all understand.” Wang Ze

said, “Nuo’er, let’s go.”

Fan Nuo’er glared at Du Xiao Li and then followed after Wang Ze. That glare was full of

resentment and murderous rage.

Du Xiao Li didn’t expect that the nal outcome would be like this. Getting expelled from the

Medicine King Valley was relatively severe, but for using the Grand Empress Dowager’s body as a

tool to frame her, this was already considered light. Just as Hu Yi Jian said, if Han Ming Ze and the

others were to know about this, Fan Nuo’er’s life would’ve forfeited!

“Don’t mind too much either. Wang Ze has always wanted to leave the Medicine King Valley.

Perhaps, this was just the chance he was waiting for.” Qing Chen, seeing Du Xiao Li somewhat

blaming herself, went up to console her.

“Although Wang Ze is Nuo’er’s shifu, but in reality, he was Nuo’er’s bodyguard, and had promised

her grandfather that he would always protect her. That’s why if Nuo’er gets expelled from the

Medicine King Valley, he won’t stay behind.” Niu Jing said.

“Who’s Nuo’er’s grandfather? Even shifu needed to give him face.” Du Xiao Li asked.

“He was an old friend of shifu’s, and had once saved shifu’s life. Before he died, he had the infant

Nuo’er entrusted to shifu. Wang Ze at the time was still the Fan family’s servant. Since he already

knew some medical skills and his natural talent also passable, shifu thus had him accepted as a

disciple, letting him take care of Nuo’er in the valley. However, in these last few years, his mind

has been drifting away from the valley more and more. Even without today’s matters, in the

future, he would still leave!”

“I’ll go check on shifu.” Du Xiao Li said.

“Go then. Shifu and the Grand Empress Dowager’s relationship is very good. This matter today

must have made him very upset. If the two of us went, shifu most likely won’t see us, so why

don’t you go console him then. Sigh…….” Niu Jing sighed.

Du Xiao Li went to Hu Yi Jian’s room and discovered that he wasn’t there. After searching in the

courtyard for a while, she found him in the most remote pavilion. She let Xia Yuan wait at a

distance, while she went over herself.
