The Crown Princess calculated with her fingers and the prince was terrified.

Jiang Xianyue heard the familiar voice; Zhao Xiuxiu was already standing at the door.

She is now at peace, with a confident and composed smile.

She was the daughter of a high-ranking official and a notoriously feisty woman in the capital. Because of her fame, people outside knew that Zhao Xiuxiu was a daughter of an official.

Officials, of course, would give them some face.

“A few days ago, I encountered evil spirits, and it was this Miss Jiang who helped me. Miss Jiang saved my life, Zhao Xiuxiu. How could Miss Jiang be a fraudster?”

Anyone who questions this shop is going against me, Zhao Xiuxiu.

Zhao Xiuxiu stood in front of Jiang Xuanyue and whispered, "I know you've fallen out with the Vice Minister's Mansion and now you don't even have anyone to back you up. But don't worry, Miss Jiang, you saved my life, so your business is my business."

Zhao Xiuxiu seems to be very loyal.

Jiang Xianyue smiled.

"What? So officials can pressure people? My son did get into trouble because of the talismans from this shop. Tell me the truth, how are you going to compensate me?"

Jiang Xianyue looked at the man whose face was covered in black mist and who had collapsed like a withered corpse, and just gave a mocking smirk.

"This is not a talisman from our family."

Jiang Xianyue's voice wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it.

"You say it's not, so it isn't? I've heard that the methods of sorcerers drawing talismans vary from school to school, and this is the style here."

Jiang Xianyue picked up a talisman and compared it carefully.

"The talisman in your hand is made of yellow paper, which is abundant in the capital city."

Our sect isn't in the capital, so everything was prepared on the way here. None of the talisman papers here are from the capital; that's proof.

Jiang Xianyue's words sparked a flurry of discussion among the crowd.

Then, Jiang Xianyue squatted down.

"This person is not dead at all, he's perfectly fine."

Is he really your son? Using such evil magic to seal his senses, don't you know he'll die?

"You bullshit!"

The woman was still making a fuss about it, but Jiang Xianyue felt incredibly relieved.

Is this like someone handing you a pillow when you're sleepy?

Jiang Xianyue was about to say that she had just opened her shop and had no customers in the capital, but no one believed her.

After all, Xinggong has a good reputation, and it's really not easy for them to do business if Jiang Xianyue steals their business.

Now is the best opportunity.

Jiang Xianyue took out a talisman and struck the man on the forehead. Everyone could see that the black energy flew out from the center of the man's forehead and gradually dissipated.

Everything happened so fast that it was beyond everyone's comprehension.

Those who witnessed an exorcism on the spot for the first time were all mesmerized.

Then, the man slowly opened his eyes.

"My son, my son!"

The woman rushed over and hugged the man.

"How are you, son?"

“Mother, ever since that person sealed my five senses, I can hear everything you say, but I feel more and more like I’m about to die. I can’t break free from this cage. I’m so scared. It seems like I’m really possessed.”

Jiang Xianyue shrugged, indicating that she had already done it.

Seeing this, everyone gathered around.

"Miss Jiang, is that right? My master needs your help with something."

Amidst the bustling crowd, Jiang Xianyue spotted a man walking in. He was dressed in brocade robes, and although he was a man, he was clearly a eunuch.

The owner's identity is self-evident.

Where is your master?

Jiang Xianyue remained calm, showing no sign of joy or anger.

"I will come to pick up the young lady at this time tomorrow. The master doesn't like crowds and may not be used to too many people."

Jiang Xianyue nodded, which was taken as her agreement.

The man left behind a gold ingot and turned to leave.

There are indeed many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital.

“Miss Jiang, this person is quite strange. What does he do? You know that Xinggong has been entrenched here for a long time. If you open a shop like this, they might cause you trouble. How dare you agree to something like this?”

Zhao Xiuxiu was clearly there to show her support.

“His master and the Star Palace should have no connection, I can tell.”

Miss Zhao is fully recovered, and she even came to help me today.

Zhao Xiuxiu smiled calmly.

"Although I used to like the Crown Prince and I know about your betrothal to him, when Princess Liu was around, I thought that no noble lady in the capital could get close to the Crown Prince. Now that it's you, I'm quite happy."

Zhao Xiuxiu looked at Jiang Xianyue, her tone very serious.

“Princess Liu and the Crown Prince were actually a couple before, but I was foolish enough to be reckless.”

But that princess is too wicked. You're a good person; if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'd be dead.

Jiang Xianyue patted Zhao Xiuxiu on the shoulder, just to make friends.

Zhao Xiuxiu is not cunning or scheming; she is very simple-minded.

"Then so be it. An arranged marriage is one thing, but the main problem is that I have no other choice."

"What are you saying? You are a woman chosen by heaven. Marrying the Crown Prince will allow the Crown Prince to regain the Emperor's trust through this matter."

Zhao Xiuxiu pulled Jiang Xianyue aside and talked about many things, from when she first noticed the Crown Prince until now.

Jiang Xianyue discovered that Zhao Xiuxiu was actually a die-hard fan of Shen Shijing.

Such loyal love is so rare.

Unfortunately, Shen Shijing and Zhao Xiuxiu could never have a happy ending in either their past or present lives.

Jiang Xianyue sighed, "So this is what it's like to like someone."

"In short, the Crown Prince treats you differently, Miss Jiang. You must believe me, your relationship is definitely not as simple as an arranged marriage."

Jiang Xianyue nodded, taking it as agreement.

Shen Shijing always acted indifferently in front of her. She knew that Shen Shijing liked her in her past life, but why didn't he like her in this life?

She wanted to become the Crown Princess and repay Shen Shijing, but she never had the chance.

"Miss Zhao came to see me not to wish me well, otherwise you could have had a good chat with me about matters between women at the princess's elegant garden."

"Miss Zhao insisted on coming to the shop today, is there something you need?"

Zhao Xiuxiu sighed.

"Miss Jiang is indeed clever. I had some things to do, and when I heard that such a shop had opened in the city, I thought I would come and take a look. I didn't expect it to be Miss Jiang. I was quite surprised and helped her out of the predicament."

"In that case, I'll thank Miss Zhao. If Miss Zhao ever needs anything, I will definitely come to her aid personally."

Zhao Xiuxiu took Jiang Xianyue's hand and began to explain: "Actually, it's about one of my sisters. They've been encountering a lot of strange things lately, and they even asked the people from the Star Palace to help, but it was all just a hasty resolution."

The people of the Star Palace are extremely arrogant; inviting them to your door always comes at a high price, and after they left, their family's situation seems to have worsened.

Jiang Xianyue listened and understood immediately.

"I'll go with you to take a look first, and we'll talk about the rest after we've seen them."

Zhao Xiuxiu pulled Jiang Xianyue along, ready to go. Jiang Xianyue hadn't expected Zhao Xiuxiu to be in such a hurry. After explaining to Xu Qingfeng, she followed Zhao Xiuxiu out to take a look.

Zhao Xiuxiu said that General Huo's bride had come back to life.
