Chapter 77: Factory Attack 5

After having a meal of dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage, Ali started making dumplings every now and then. The fillings were different each time, sometimes with fresh shrimp and corn, and sometimes with black fungus and carrots.

Every time I make dumplings, Xu Zhi always comes over.

However, after feeding him a few times, Ahri discovered that this guy also loves meat. If there is no meat in the dumplings, he will not eat much.

The young palace maid also became more careful and did all the work that she could usually do alone.

When it comes to food, if she can touch it, she won’t allow anyone else to touch it, and she is very cautious.

Ali saw it but didn't ask any more questions.

Xu Zhi thought that the little palace maid's behavior was just a waste of time.

In the East Factory, sometimes the few fish that slipped through the net were let in when he was bored.

He hasn't seen blood for so long that he sometimes misses it.

However, today, during the morning court session, Xu Zhi heard that an envoy from the State of Jin had arrived.

In the court, everyone was discussing, "Why did the Jin State suddenly send an envoy here today?"

"Have you forgotten, Lord? The princess that was exchanged two years ago is probably here to take her back."

Xu Zhi closed his eyes, touched the beads on his wrist, pursed his lips, and listened to what the people around him said.

Will the envoy from Jin come to take her back?

After the court session, Xu Zhi returned to the East Factory.

Xu Zhi's food, clothing, housing and transportation were all in the East Factory. Even though the emperor had given him a mansion, he still lived in the East Factory.

Ali just lived there too, and never went to the front, nor to the place where the prisoners were held.

Xu Zhi watched Ali fiddling with her flowers and plants, and said, "An envoy from the State of Jin has arrived."

Ali curled the corner of her lips. The original owner was no longer there, so what was the point of the envoys from Jin coming here?

Xu Zhi added: "You came to Liang as an exchange. If the envoys from Jin show enough sincerity this time, perhaps they can take you back."

"Sincerity? Liang has always been stronger than Jin. Liang probably doesn't care about anything else Jin has except its war horses."

As Ali spoke, he took care of the flowers and plants, trimmed the dead branches and cut off the dead leaves.

When Xu Zhi heard this, he realized that this was indeed the truth.

"But I don't know who the envoy is this time." Ali put down the scissors and tilted her head to look at Xu Zhi.

Xu Zhi thought about what the ministers said today and said, "It seems to be a man named Qin."

"Qin?"

Ali thought of the person the original owner had always been thinking about, the man called 'Master Qin'.

Xu Zhi stopped talking after seeing Ali say this. His first instinct told him that Ali had something to do with that person.

At this time, Ali suddenly asked: "If I really leave, will the factory be reluctant to let me go?"

Xu Zhi was almost frightened by Ali's frankness. His heart rate was different again, and he suspected again that he was sick.

Seeing Xu Zhi in a trance, Ali asked, "But where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Xu Zhi shook his head and said, "It's not a big problem, maybe there are some minor problems somewhere."

He also consulted the imperial physician, but the physician was unable to explain the cause.

Ahri thought that the poison had been cured by her and her life was not in danger. It must be just a minor problem.

But she still said, "How about I show it to you?"

Xu Zhi then thought of asking Ali, "Aren't you a princess of Jin? How come you know the art of Qi Huang?"

Ali said: "Sometimes I was too bored in the Jin Palace, so I found a female doctor to learn medicine."

"Then where did you get the medicine you boiled for me last time?"

"What I brought from Jin State are all my life-saving medicines." When Ali said this, she knew that Xu Zhi was going to get to the bottom of it.

However, she was not afraid of investigation. The original owner had indeed learned medical skills from a female doctor in Jin State, and she also carried some typhoid medicine and secret medicine from the Jin State Palace with her.

"Then how do you know how to cure the poison in my body?"

It is difficult for ordinary doctors to detect the poison in Xu Zhi's body from his pulse in one go.

Ali said, "I saw something similar in a rare copy of the doctor's book, so I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't expect that a blind cat would catch a dead mouse, and it might be a lucky coincidence. Maybe you were not destined to die."

You weren't supposed to die in the first place, otherwise why would the strategy group have a mission to attack you and not let you die?

Xu Zhi wanted to ask more, but Ali looked at him and said, "Are you worried that I will hurt you?"

The disappointment and loss in his words made Xu Zhi's heart tighten for a moment.

"No."

Ahri lowered her head and said sadly, "Why didn't you ask from the beginning? Why didn't you let someone arrest me and interrogate me? Why did you suddenly ask today? Do you suspect me?"

Xu Zhi wanted to say that the reason he brought the person back without asking any questions was because he thought that the person was under his nose, and even if he was sent by the enemy, he could easily deal with it.

However, seeing that Ali was well-behaved every day and had the mind to make dumplings and plant flowers, he put all these problems behind him.

If Ahri hadn't mentioned it to him today, he might not have thought of asking her about it.

However, before Xu Zhi could explain the reason, a young eunuch came over and said, "Master, the emperor summons you to the palace."

"I understand." Xu Zhi responded and saw that Ali was still standing there with his head down.

He sighed, turned and left.

Ali also realized belatedly that the answer to her question just now was whether she would be reluctant to let go.

The little palace maid stood far away and didn't dare to come over. She didn't know if she had seen it wrong just now. Was the girl angry with the factory manager?

The factory manager's temper has improved a lot recently, and he no longer kills people or imposes punishments for no reason.

But when I think of the wailing that would occasionally be heard from the dungeon at midnight.

The young maid shook her head, thinking: This is all my illusion, it is not gone now. It is just that before, it was openly tortured in front of everyone, but now people are taken to the dungeon for torture.

Seeing that the little palace maid seemed to be lost in her own world, sometimes shaking her head and sometimes looking self-affirming, Ali went back to her room and lay down.

On the other side, Xu Zhi met the emperor and learned that the emperor had asked someone to receive the envoy from Jin State and bring the princess of Jin State with him to let the envoy see that the princess was still alive.

The Emperor of Liang also said: "I heard that the envoy brought two thousand war horses this time."

"Is it to be used to exchange for the princess?"

"Perhaps, a princess is only worth two thousand war horses?" The Emperor of Liang said this, then shook his head and let Xu Zhi go.

Xu Zhi was standing outside the hall when he suddenly heard the sound of snow melting.

The cold winter is coming to an end.

However, at this time, someone walked in front of him and said, "I think this is Mr. Xu."

When Xu Zhi saw that the visitor was elegant and dressed in the official uniform of Jin State, he realized that this person was the envoy from Jin State.

Seeing that Xu Zhi didn't say yes or no, Qin Ke continued, "I want to meet the Seventeenth Princess first."

Qin Ke didn't want to be so anxious, but after the Seventeenth Princess was sent to Liang State, he realized that it was really good to have someone care about you every day, follow you around, and worry about whether you were cold or hungry. He regretted it.

So, this time he will definitely take the person back.
