Weird story about rules: I rely on magic to kill people

Chapter 49 Windsor Castle (48)

With a smile on her face, the little girl replied sweetly to Xu Zhinian: "Okay!"

Really cute!
The smile on Xu Zhinian's face almost overflowed. He turned around and led the way towards the count's room downstairs.

*
In front of the count's room door, Xu Zhinian knocked lightly three times.

thump -- thump -- thump --

Without waiting for the earl's response, Xu Zhinian pushed the door open and entered.

The count in the room still accidentally injured Xu Zhinian this time.

He leaned on the bed in front of the window, lying on his side.When I heard someone coming in from outside the door, I thought it was the current countess again, so I started yelling curses——

"Ha! Shrew! What are you doing here again? Keep poisoning me? Even though I don't have two days left to live, you can't even think about it! You can't inherit this castle no matter what!"

The gardener followed Xu Zhinian, and from his line of sight, he could see that Xu Zhinian was embarrassed at the moment.

Xu Zhinian turned to smile at the gardener and walked quickly to the count.

With a fake smile on her face, she said to the Earl word by word: "Your Majesty, you think of me as that lady again..."

When the earl heard this, he opened his eyes suddenly.

Standing in front of him was Xu Zhinian, who was smirking. The earl also became embarrassed.

He scratched his head: "It's Miss Xu from the Dragon Kingdom. Why are you here again? I remember you told me about your plan, wasn't it at the banquet the day after?"

Xu Zhinian leaned over and said, "If something goes wrong, I'll detoxify the count first."

"Detoxification?" The Earl made a weak voice, with doubt in his tone: "You are a little girl, how can you detoxify that shrew's poison so easily?"

"Alas! The poor count has been tricked by the current countess for so many years!"

"Yeah, it makes my teeth itch with anger!"

"However, he can meet our sister Xu! She is the apprentice of my Dragon Kingdom's miracle doctor Xia Zhu!"

"That's right, not to mention that as Xia Zhu's apprentice, she can survive the death of human flesh and white bones, but detoxification is still easy, right?"

……

Xu Zhinian had already suspected that the count would not easily believe that the poison she was poisoned could be easily cured.

If it was really easy to detoxify, Earl would definitely try to find other doctors in the past 11 years.

But after 11 years, the poison is still not cured, which can only mean two possibilities: one is that there is something wrong with the doctor; the other is that the poison administered by the current countess is difficult to cure.

It is clear at a glance that the second possibility is more likely.

Of course, Xu Zhinian felt that there was a probability that the two possibilities would happen together.

She frowned, thinking about what to say to get the count to take the antidote.

Since it was said that it could detoxify, she thought it would be better to take the trick: "Count, you have been poisoned anyway, and you don't have a few days to live. What can you do if you take the antidote?"

"Just treat it as a snack, nothing else."

As soon as these words came out, the earl was moved.

His lips trembled slightly: "Then bring it, let me have a taste."

Xu Zhinian smiled slightly and took out the folded paper from his arms.She unfolded the folded paper to reveal a small corner, just enough to pour out the medicinal powder inside.

The earl stretched out his hand, and Xu Zhinian handed the prepared powder to the piece of paper into his hand.

He said nothing more, sat up from the bed, raised his head and drank the powder in the paper.

The powder entered his throat and quickly flowed down his esophagus and into his stomach.

Xu Zhinian nodded with satisfaction: "Now, count, your poison has been cured."

The Earl still didn't believe it. Just when he was about to question, there was a sudden heat in his stomach.

The heat moved quickly along the meridians of the body and quickly spread throughout the body.The Earl, who had been sick just a moment ago, now looked rosy, and he did not look like someone who had been poisoned for many years.

The earl was shocked for a moment. His weak body actually became stronger after taking the antidote from Xu Zhinian's mouth.

He didn't even need to lean on the head of the bed to sit up straight.

He forgot about it for a moment, and it wasn't until Xu Zhinian respectfully handed over his hand that he came back to his senses.

"As expected of Xia Zhu's apprentice, I really solved it!"

"Say it again: Sister Xu NB!"...

The earl asked: "Have I really been cured of this poison?"

"Don't the changes in your body explain everything?" Xu Zhinian said, bowing slightly: "Congratulations to the count, the poison has been cured!"

While speaking, Xu Zhinian turned his head and winked at the gardener behind him.

The gardener understood immediately and led his "daughter" to the count.

He took his "daughter" and saluted the earl: "Congratulations, Lord earl, all the poison in the body has been eliminated!"

With a smile on her face, the little girl also imitated the gardener and said to the Earl in a sweet voice.

The count didn't react when he saw the gardener. When he next saw the little girl next to him, his body couldn't help but tremble again.

This is not the lingering poison, this is excitement.

He pointed at the little girl and slowly turned to look at Xu Zhinian: "This, this is mine... mine?"

Xu Zhinian nodded: "Yes, this little girl is your and your wife's daughter."

The earl became more excited when he heard the affirmative answer.Two lines of hot tears fell down, and he stretched out his arms excitedly: "Come, come here and let me hug my daughter."

"Go, that's your daddy." The gardener pushed the little girl away from him with tears in his eyes.

The little girl has reached a sensible age. Listening to the conversation between the gardener and Xu Zhinian along the way, she actually realized that she might not be the gardener's biological child.

But after 11 years of being together day and night, how can the emotions between them be easily erased?

What's more, she was only two or three years old when the gardener first raised her, and she didn't remember anything.

The little girl suddenly burst into tears and shouted: "Daddy...Daddy doesn't want me anymore!"

As soon as the gardener heard her cry, his clutching heart became even more uncomfortable, and he began to cry too.

He pulled the little girl into his arms and gently stroked her head: "How could daddy not want you? But, that's your daddy!"

When the earl heard this, he retracted his outstretched arm.

He snorted: "No wonder."

The Count heard that the gardener was also calling himself "Dad". No wonder his daughter didn't want to recognize him.

I ignored it and ignored it for 11 years!Who would it be, who would forgive?

Xu Zhinian saw clearly from the sidelines that the three of them actually understood everything, but it was just because of the various emotional bonds between them.

She sighed, squatted on the ground and held the gardener and the little girl in each other's arms.

He said helplessly: "This matter can't be rushed. After 11 years of relationship, you can't just let it go."

"Oooh! How pitiful!"

"It's all the fault of the current countess, that bad woman, for destroying a good family!"

"To be honest, Uncle Gardener was really good to that little girl! It made up for her lack of fatherly love!"

……

The earl immediately understood: "I understand. I was blamed at first, just to protect her. I had no choice. Don't be hasty. After everything has been solved, it's not too late to take your time."

"Didn't I detoxify?" He asked again, looking at his body: "I can live for many more years. Take your time, I can wait."

The gardener heard this and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the count.

The Count understood the pros and cons of the matter and knew the priorities.

He asked Xu Zhinian: "Listen to what you just said, what happened? Did your plan change accordingly?"

Xu Zhinian heard the count's question and talked to him in detail.

After hearing all the explanations, the Earl was so angry that he clenched his fists and slammed the head of the bed hard.

"I knew how could it be possible just by her poisoning..."

"Then you go and rescue my wife! He must be living a much more miserable life than me in the darkroom on the second floor!"

"I'm fine here. Go and save my wife!"
