The Villain is Reborn! Princess Zhan goes on a killing spree in the capital

One-handed ghost doctor?

Su Jixue's heart moved slightly when she heard what Empress Dowager Xie said, but she did not show any expression on her face. She firmly inserted the needle in her hand into the top of Empress Dowager Xie's head and twisted it gently.

"That's great. Ji Xue hasn't seen Master for a long time." Su Jixue said with some embarrassment: "Master taught Ji Xue medicine in secret and specifically told her not to save anyone without Master's permission."

"I'm a little scared when I think about it. I hope the Queen Mother can help put in a few good words for me when the time comes."

Su Jixue looked at Empress Dowager Xie with admiration, as if the Empress Dowager was an omnipotent person in her mind who could help her as long as she opened her mouth.

Although Empress Dowager Xie closed her eyes, she could still feel Su Jixue's expression. Her forehead was throbbing with nerves when Su Jixue called herself Ji Xue.

"Actually, the princess has come to me with a request." Since Su Jixue mentioned Lu Jing, Empress Dowager Xie started talking about it: "It is said that Jing'er is now living a life worse than death."

Empress Dowager Xie raised her voice at the end, but did not say the rest.

Su Jixue's brows twitched slightly, and her voice immediately became a little panicked: "Queen Dowager, when she saved Lu Jing, Ji Xue had already disobeyed her master's orders, and then she caused that incident."

"In the Princess's residence, Su Mingyue jumped into the lake to frame Ji Xue. Prince Lu mistakenly believed Su Mingyue's words and had the servants push Ji Xue into the lake. He even used a wooden stick to beat Ji Xue into the lake when she struggled."

There was a hint of grievance in Su Jixue's voice.

"So, you are complaining to me?" Empress Dowager Xie did not comment. You know, the eldest princess is Empress Dowager Xie's daughter, and Lu Jing is her grandson, but Su Jixue dared to say these in front of her.

Su Jixue's fingers slowly and steadily helped the Queen Mother with the acupuncture, and she replied as a matter of course: "I don't know why, but I have always admired the Queen Mother, and now that I have seen her, I feel even closer. That's why Ji Xue couldn't help but say this."

“In fact, if it weren’t for the gods’ help, Ji Xue would not have been able to survive from the lake with the wound on her head.”

"Oh?" Empress Dowager Xie opened her eyes slightly with interest. In fact, the whole capital now knew about the affairs of the Princess's Mansion, and Empress Dowager Xie also knew the details.

What is most interesting is the drastic change in Su Jixue's temperament after falling into the water.

The fact that Su Jixue smashed the jade pendant between Lu Jing and her in public on East Chang Street was actually known to the whole capital, so everyone speculated that Su Jixue was bullied to the extreme, which was why the Princess's Mansion fell out with her.

But in the eyes of Empress Dowager Xie, Su Jixue was like two different people.

This theory of divine rescue is quite novel.

"God save you?"

Empress Dowager Xie's eyes swept across Su Jixue's face bit by bit. Although she was lying on the couch, she looked at her with the scrutiny of a superior, as if she was judging the truthfulness of Su Jixue's words.

Su Jixue looked at Empress Dowager Xie innocently and nodded: "Yes, Ji Xue was injured on the forehead and lost too much blood. She was no longer able to survive from the water--"

Su Jixue paused and saw that Empress Dowager Xie had not closed her eyes yet, and seemed to be very interested in her experience.

Su Jixue suddenly wanted to take a risk.

"But at the critical moment, it felt as if someone was carrying Ji Xue up, or even as if a beautiful ball of light was sucked into Ji Xue's body."

"Queen Mother, please don't laugh at Ji Xue. Even her body seems different after coming ashore."

Su Jixue's expression was filled with disbelief.

Before she finished her words, Empress Dowager Xie's fingers had already placed on Su Jixue's wrist, and even her casual expression just now became solemn.

Su Jixue pretended to be ignorant and allowed Empress Dowager Xie to explore the energy channels in her body.

In just that instant, the murderous aura burst out from Empress Dowager Xie.

Although Empress Dowager Xie quickly restrained her breath, Su Jixue was extremely sensitive to this murderous aura, so she knew that Empress Dowager Xie must have discovered something wrong in her body.

"Empress Dowager, you pinched Ji Xue and hurt her." Su Jixue looked at Empress Dowager Xie in fear. "Excuse me, is there something wrong with Ji Xue's piercing?"

Empress Dowager Xie then withdrew her fingers and closed her eyes again, but her eyelids were trembling, and she looked extremely uneasy. "No, I just had a severe headache, so I accidentally used some force."

"Do you remember what that ball of light you mentioned looked like?"

Empress Dowager Xie asked seemingly indifferently.

But Su Jixue was not aimless. She pretended to think for a moment, "It seems to have some complicated patterns. It looks a lot like the window paper-cuts used during the Chinese New Year, but I can't remember the details."

The inheritance of the spirit race mostly relies on blood, but there is a kind of inheritance called talent. Those who have great luck will be blessed by heaven and can change the fortune of the race and the fate of the world.

Su Jixue deliberately said these things ambiguously, just to make Empress Dowager Xie start to doubt her background and then covet her.

"It sounds a bit magical." Empress Dowager Xie's eyes stopped trembling, and she seemed to have slowly calmed down.

"It's truly miraculous. Ji Xue was actually impulsive when she took the poison back. It was as if something was directing her mind at the time. It wasn't like Ji Xue's body was under her control. It wasn't until the War King came and fainted that she seemed to be getting better."

Su Jixue said half-truthfully.

"You are a very lucky child." Empress Dowager Xie said lightly, but her heart was already in turmoil.

You know, originally all her hopes were pinned on refining Ji Xue's heart, something she had been planning for a long time.

The repeated drawing of blood and cutting of flesh in the Great Wilderness Mountain was also to test how strong Ji Xue's body could be.

But he didn't expect that at the last moment, the refining would fail.

This means that it is impossible for Empress Dowager Xie to restore her spirit body. Without the spirit body, she will be no different from an ordinary person in terms of appearance or other aspects.

That's why her headache became so severe when she learned about the failure and the explosion of the furnace.

You have to know that there is only one Ji Xue's heart in this world, and only this one is useful to her.

But just when she was at her wit's end, she didn't expect Su Jixue to give Queen Mother Xie such a surprise. Queen Mother Xie took a deep breath. She had just tested it and found that Su Jixue's body was no different from that of the spirit race.

And what Su Jixue said meant that she might be even more powerful than Ji Xue.

It is very likely that Su Jixue is the chosen one of the spirit race.

If the chosen one of the spirit race could be refined by Empress Dowager Xie... the corners of Empress Dowager Xie's lips slowly curled up, as if she could see herself even better than before.

"Doesn't the Queen Mother blame Ji Xue for her cruel actions?" Su Jixue asked with some concern. "Actually, Ji Xue has figured it out. Prince Lu fought with all his might for Dong Chu in the Battle of Gu'an. He is a hero of Dong Chu. Ji Xue shouldn't hold such a grudge against him."

"But Ji Xue couldn't swallow the anger in her heart."

"So the Queen Mother has decided that no matter whether it's the eldest princess or Prince Lu, if they don't sincerely apologize, Ji Xue will not save them."

"What you call a sincere apology is to make the prince kneel down and beg in person?" Empress Dowager Xie asked calmly, her voice unable to tell whether she was happy or angry.
