After a while, the wandering Taoist priest was brought before Wei Qingyi.

The wandering Taoist priest merely bowed in greeting, without kneeling.

"Now that the world is at peace and the weather is favorable, I am very pleased and have no worries." Wei Qingyi first gave a show of force.

He said it on purpose, just to hear what the wandering Taoist priest would say.

The wandering Taoist priest smiled and said, "Isn't Your Majesty troubled by the matter of Justice Fortress?"

Wei Qingyi was secretly alarmed, but on the surface she remained calm.

It's also possible that this wandering Taoist priest was sent by Bian Lang. Revealing his true strength too early would only bring unnecessary trouble upon himself.

“I have never heard of any Justice Fortress,” Wei Qingyi replied cleverly.

The Taoist priest said, "I have been traveling around the world and recently heard a lot of rumors that many people miss the Empress and are eager for her to return to her throne."

Wei Qingyi smiled but remained silent.

If he were really so easily fooled, he wouldn't be sitting in this position right now.

"Of course, if Your Majesty has no such worries, then consider this my presumptuous talk. I will take my leave now." The wandering Taoist priest seemed to have little patience left, and seeing Wei Qingyi's reaction, he was already planning to leave.

Wei Qingyi was also conflicted, after all, he had just been thinking about this matter and was struggling to find a solution.

The timing of this wandering Taoist priest's appearance was truly too coincidental.

If this guy wasn't sent by Bian Lang, he might have been sent by heaven to save him.

However, it's difficult to discern the truth in a short time.

"Your Majesty, this humble Taoist priest shall take his leave now." The wandering Taoist priest said, bowing once more, and then turned to leave.

Wei Qingyi waved her hand and called out, "Wait..."

The wandering Taoist priest slowly turned around, simply smiling as he looked at Wei Qingyi.

As the ruler of a country, Wei Qingyi dared not look the Taoist in the eye, fearing that the man would see through all her thoughts.

"Tell me first," Wei Qingyi said ambiguously.

He had already thought about it several times in his mind before saying it, and only spoke it after confirming that there was no problem.

The wandering Taoist priest stopped smiling and pointed to the top of his head.

When Wei Qingyi looked up, all she saw was a magnificent ceiling. When she looked at the wandering Taoist priest again, her eyes were full of doubt.

"What do you mean?" Seeing that the wandering Taoist priest was not going to explain, Wei Qingyi was too lazy to think about it and simply asked directly.

Without a doubt, these charlatans are masters of creating mystique.
