That night, they sent news to each family.

I heard that the chief of Kangle County came forward to intercede with Lord Hou, and all the families were overjoyed.

As a result, several other families begged to Liu's and Jia's.

Early the next morning, the gift list was delivered to the Li family.

Jiayin added a few more names to the list and set off by car.

Lord Hou has been interrogating everyone in Yaochi for the past few days, so he must not be able to eat well or live well.

Therefore, Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying were busy all morning, and prepared a lot of food for Lord Hou, as well as clean clothes, shoes and socks.

Sure enough, Lord Hou was looking through a stack of confession sheets, and when he heard that his daughter had rushed to the row room of the palace, he immediately got up and straightened his clothes, checking his body and the soles of his shoes for dirt and blood.

The butler of the Hou Mansion happened to be waiting nearby, so he put down the teapot in his hand and said, "Your Majesty is busy and forgot, you just changed your clothes, shoes and socks this morning."

Hou Ye breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his swollen and painful temples, and then asked the butler to invite his daughter in.

Jiayin glanced at her adoptive father and saw that he was very tired, but she didn't mention it. She ran over and said with a smile: "Father! You haven't come home for several days. Grandma is thinking about it. Let me send it to my foster father. It's delicious!"

Lord Hou took his daughter and sat beside him, and asked, "What are you busy with at home? Didn't anyone carelessly go out to make trouble in the past two days?"

"Of course not," Jiayin couldn't help laughing and said, "Grandpa Zhang is so sorry, he can't wait for a thief to come to his door every day.

"He has saved several new medicines there, but there is no one to help test them."

Lord Hou also smiled, and replied: "When I finish my work here, if there are suitable ones, help him find some."

Jiayin nodded, opened the food box, and took out a plate of siu mai with pork, corn and shrimp, a large bowl of red dates and millet porridge, a plate of coriander beef, and a plate of cucumber with soy sauce.

"Father, hurry up and fill your belly, I helped my mother do this!"

Jiayin handed the chopsticks to Master Hou, who took it and started eating.

The butler glanced at the food in the warm cage, but said nothing.

He brought food over in the morning, but it's a pity that Master Hou has been busy and has no time to eat.

Now that the princess brought the food over, Lord Hou immediately moved his chopsticks...

Hou Ye was also really hungry, and he ate half full in one breath before slowing down.

Taking advantage of this moment, Jiayin poured her adoptive father a cup of tea with her own hands, and said, "Father foster, what should we do with the girls who were at the flower viewing banquet at the Princess Mansion earlier?

"Yesterday, from Aunt Liu's family, the second wife of Jia's family, and my aunt, there were people who sent gift lists, and through them they wanted my family to come forward and intercede with you.

"The girl's reputation is too important, if they make trouble, they are afraid they will hang themselves.

"So, I just wanted to ask my adoptive father, if these people are irrelevant, would my adoptive father hold my hand high?"

Hou Ye smiled, took a piece of siu mai and fed it to the fat girl, and asked, "What? Are there any good things you want in those gift lists?"

"No!" Jiayin gnawed on the siu mai, and protested vaguely, "Of course, the foster father's errand is important, but... without delaying the foster father, it would be better to make a small fortune."

Not to mention Master Hou, even the butler laughed.

Hou Ye finished the rest of the food in a few mouthfuls, drank some tea, and said, "Bring me the list, let me have a look."

Jiayin quickly put up the list, Hou Ye glanced at it, and circled five of them with a pen.

"These five have smoked hibiscus cream several times and need to make a statement. The rest are the first time they smoked at the flower viewing feast, so there is no need to make a statement."

Lord Hou pushed the list to Jiayin, and said: "The five circles, I will find a nanny to come to the door to give a statement under the guise of someone from the embroidery village.

"You make these families get ready, and try not to ruin the reputation of these girls.

"The rest of them told them to stay out of the limelight and let the matter pass.

"After a while, go to the emperor, and I will talk about it.

"It's harmless, the emperor won't hold on to a few little girls, and the chief culprit, the eldest princess, has already pleaded guilty to the law."

Jiayin was overjoyed, received the list and asked again: "Father, these five girls have smoked a few times, they should be addicted.

"I'll go back and find Grandpa Zhang, see if I can figure out a prescription and help them out?"

Lord Hou nodded, yawned, and replied: "Okay, you can look at the arrangement. The list is announced to the public, whether you can do it or not, if you come to intercede, naturally it will not be announced.

"Any generous gift from their family should be given to you, just accept it."

After that, he yawned again, as if his eyelids were heavy.

Soon, he couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep on the table.

Jiayin hurriedly called the housekeeper for help, and helped Master Hou to a makeshift cot.

Jiayin was busy helping her adoptive father take off his shoes, covered him with a quilt, and instructed the surprised big housekeeper.

"Uncle housekeeper, I think foster father is very tired, he probably hasn't slept for two or three days.

"That's why I just put some medicinal powder into his tea, which should make him sleep soundly for an hour. You must stay here and watch every step."

"Okay, okay!" The butler hurriedly responded, feeling uneasy.

In the whole world, this fat girl is the only one who dares to drug his master and let him be caught off guard!

Jiayin quickly packed her things and ran away.

Although Madam Jia was asked to bring Baozhu home with good things yesterday, Jiayin still misses this little friend.

So, she went around Baiyunjian, packed some snacks, and went to Jia's house.

Sure enough, as soon as Baozhu saw Jiayin, she hugged her and did not let go.

"Sister Jiayin, did the third princess bully you at the Princess Mansion that day? Woohoo, I was scared to death! Have you seen the doctor? Did you drink the bitter medicine?

"I listened to you, I didn't go anywhere when I got home, I'm so good!"

With a warm heart, Jiayin greeted Mrs. Jia and the second lady, and ran to Baozhu's room.

The two little sisters sat together, head to head, whispering while eating.

Jiayin tells Baozhu the dangers of hibiscus ointment as briefly as possible, reminding her to stay away from it in the future.

He also made it clear that the third princess and Bao Lei were jealous of her, and even framed her.

She didn't expect Baozhu to understand it immediately, at least she wanted to leave an impression in her heart.

In this way, in the future, if others want to plot against Baozhu to achieve the purpose of plotting against him, Baozhu will also be a little bit on guard.

Baozhu is like a hamster, with her mouth full, she nods from time to time, and she doesn't know how well she listens...

At the middle of the day, Master Hou woke up from a deep sleep, opened his eyes, and was a little dazed for a while, but when he remembered what happened before, he immediately turned over and sat up.

The butler hurried forward to wait on him, and whispered about the matter, Hou Ye really couldn't laugh or cry.

This fat girl is too courageous!

Fortunately, there was no urgent errand, and the palace did not send anyone to summon him, otherwise it would have been a big mistake.

But he also knew that the fat girl felt sorry for him because he was too tired these days.

So, he slowed down, packed his things and went into the palace.

After three days of busy work, the case of hibiscus ointment finally came to a conclusion.

The third watch is here~~
