His expression was extremely serious, and Emperor Xuan believed it, so he asked Gu Xijiu next to him: "Xijiu, is that hairpin of yours really poisonous?"
Gu Xijiu glanced at Protector Huo and seemed to suddenly remember something: "Your Majesty, Xijiu is usually not very good at protecting herself. She did put some itchy medicine on the hairpin to prepare for unexpected events. It's not poison, it just makes it itchy. That’s it, it will stop itching after a while and return to normal, it’s nothing.”
Protector Huo said angrily: "What do you mean it only lasted a moment? I have been itching for several moments! Now it's still painfully itchy! You are clearly lying!"
Gu Xijiu frowned, looked him up and down, and suddenly asked: "How many days have you not showered?"
Protector Huo: "...Why do you ask me to do this?"
Does this have anything to do with him not taking a shower for a few days
Gu Xijiu frowned and looked him up and down: "Huo Huofa hasn't bathed for half a month, right?"
Protector Huo's face turned red: "Wha... what?"
Gu Xijiu's voice was still cold and indifferent: "The medicine on my hairpin is not harmful to ordinary people. It does stop itching after a moment. But if someone who hasn't bathed for more than half a month accidentally gets this medicine, the medicine will react with the medicine. The mud and dirt on the skin are mixed together, and the medicinal properties are instantly strengthened, making it itch all day long.”
Protector Huo: "!!!"
The officials and guards around the dragon chariot looked at Protector Huo with subtle eyes -
People in Feixing Kingdom still like to be clean. Even ordinary people have to take a bath every two days.
As for the princes and nobles, they wash once a day. What's more, they wash several times a day, once when they go out and come home.
People like this who don’t take a shower for half a month are simply weird!
I didn’t expect this dignified protector of the Nine Star Sect to be so sloppy!
These people originally thought that this protector was extremely tall and shining, but now... now the idol has collapsed!
Huo Hufa does have a bad habit of not liking to take a bath, but he is still very particular about his clothes and looks neat. Naturally, no one notices his slovenliness. Now that Gu Xijiu has accidentally exposed it, he almost feels like running naked in front of others. illusion!
His face turned as red as a tomato, and he wanted to get angry but couldn't find a reason. After all, it wasn't the little girl who meant to stab him.
Under the baptism of many gazes, Huo Hufa said: "In that case, say goodbye!" He ran away like a fly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
He really has no shame in staying here anymore, so he can only suffer for a day before talking. If the itch gets worse after one day, it won't be too late for him to trouble this little girl.
Emperor Xuan watched Huo Hufa disappear and couldn't help laughing: "Xijiu, I didn't expect you to have such a wonderful medicine! Interesting! Interesting!"
Gu Xijiu's lips curved: "Xijiu is just doing it to protect yourself."
"Does this medicine have a name?"
"Wolf-proof medicine."
"Hahaha, anti-wolf medicine! Not bad, not bad! Xiao Xijiu, you are really a talent!" Emperor Xuan said with a smile on his face: "Let's go, follow me to Baohe Hall, I will hold a celebration banquet for you."
…
Baohe Hall is the place where the emperor recruits his sons for the Imperial Palace Examination in the Feixing Kingdom, and is also the place where ministers are given banquets.
There were already more than a dozen ministers waiting in the main hall. When they saw Emperor Xuan coming in with Gu Xijiu, everyone was stunned for a moment.
The emperor is a supreme loner. When have you ever seen him holding someone's hand
Even his own daughters he didn't have a hand in!
Emperor Xuan took Gu Xijiu's hand and walked directly to the throne in the main hall. Originally, there was only one throne on the high platform, which represented the supremacy of imperial power.
Now Emperor Xuan asked someone to add a table to the lower position next to his throne: "Xijiu, sit there."
