Shen Zhao, who transmigrated into the Immortal Martial Continent, was forced by the system to humbly fawn over the Empress for nine lifetimes.
However, what he thought was true love that coul...
Dao Realm, Xuanyuan City, Tiansheng Palace.
Luo Pianhong stood before the jade railing, gazing up at the sky, her delicate face filled with melancholy and anxiety.
"Strange, it's been several months, why is there still no news from Mu Qiuyao?"
In order to prevent Song Yanran from monopolizing Shen Zhao, Luo Pianhong once sought help from Mu Qiuyao, suggesting that she get entangled with Song Yanran, and then he would go to Shen Zhao to cultivate their relationship.
However, several months have passed, and Mu Qiuyao has not only not started a fight with Song Yanran, but has not even said hello to her, which makes her feel anxious.
"His Majesty!"
Just as he was feeling troubled, Linghu Mo suddenly came to report.
Luo Pianhong immediately composed himself, turned to look at Linghu Mo, and calmly asked, "What business do you have with me?"
Linghu Mo bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, as you instructed, I have been closely monitoring the situation in the Eastern Region these past few days."
Half a month ago, the retired Emperor Yu Guopu of the Great Yin Dynasty and Empress Dowager Gu Ningye traveled together to Luoyang City in the Southern Region.
"Hmm? What are they going to the Southern Region for?" Luo Pianhong was a little curious.
Linghu Mo: "According to my investigation, it seems that the recent disturbance caused by the appearance of the Nine Netherworld in Chang'an has worsened Yu Guopu's heart failure."
He probably needs rest and recuperation right now, which is why he went to the Southern Region. After all, the relationship between Shen Zhao and the two elders is quite special.
"Yes, indeed."
Luo Pianhong nodded.
"Heart failure is an incurable disease. All that's needed is recuperation and rest. How could a daughter like Yu Xiyan not even know this common sense?"
Upon hearing this, Linghu Mo whispered, "Your Majesty, you are mistaken. Heart failure is not an incurable disease; it's just that a good medicine is hard to find."
"Um?"
Luo Pianhong immediately became interested.
Linghu Mo said, "As long as we obtain the Snow Frog Dew Pill, treating heart failure will not be a problem."
"How could I not know this?"
Luo Pianhong sighed.
"But the formula of Snow Hali Qianlu Pills is very complicated and requires many precious and rare medicinal materials.
The most important ingredient is a thousand-leaf Ganoderma lucidum, which is used as a medicinal guide.
However, the thousand-leaf Ganoderma lucidum is extremely rare and hard to find; it's practically priceless and unavailable.
Where can I find it?
As soon as he finished speaking, Linghu Mo said, "This humble servant does know a clue about the Thousand-Leaf Lingzhi Grass; it's in the Ye family of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Are you serious?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Pianhong immediately perked up.
"After making inquiries from various sources, I believe it is correct."
Linghu Mo replied with absolute certainty.
Luo Pianhong turned around and couldn't help but clench her jade hands.
"If I can help Shen Zhao get the medicine to treat his heart failure, would that give me a chance to get closer to him?"
Soon, a beautiful picture came to mind, and she finalized her plan.
"Thank you for telling me this clue. You have worked so hard during this period."
"I am delighted to serve Your Majesty..."
Linghu Mo stopped talking halfway through his sentence.
Looking at his dark expression, Luo Pianhong knew exactly what the reason was.
Wasn’t it his son who caused the trouble by yelling at his teacher?
After bringing Linghu Ming back to the Dao Domain, Li Minshuang went directly to pay her respects to Linghu Mo and said she wanted to get married.
It can be said to be simple and crude, and it goes straight to the point.
This completely shocked Linghu Mo. The Dao Domain is a place that places great importance on traditional etiquette, and if a master-disciple relationship were exposed, it would definitely make headlines.
Faced with this sudden marriage, Linghu Mo dared not do anything to Li Minyue. Instead, he took out a 40cm diameter steel rod, intending to kill his own relative for the greater good.
But Li Minshuang directly stood in front of Linghu Ming and said to Linghu Mo, "Ming'er and I have already consummated our marriage. Father-in-law, if you want to hit someone, hit me instead."
This prevented Linghu Mo from intervening, leaving him only able to watch helplessly as the master and disciple went further and further down the path of defying fate.
During this period, Linghu Mo would always be greeted by countless colleagues whenever he went out.
for example:
"Oh, Lord Linghu, I heard your son has found a good match. When will you bring him out to meet us?"
"Master Linghu, I heard that your daughter-in-law is a rare talent. When can you bring her out for us to see?"
"Lord Linghu, when will you invite us to your son's wedding banquet?"
Such sarcastic remarks made Linghu Mo so angry that he could only stay at home after court every day and dared not go anywhere.
In addition to the cordial greetings from these colleagues, there are also verbal criticisms from underworld forces.
These guys didn't dare to confront Emperor Li Minshuang, so they could only go around the streets and alleys every day making sarcastic remarks and cursing Linghu Mo for his family's poor discipline, saying that he had actually taught Linghu Ming, such a rebellious and disobedient son!
One thing after another, in the past few months, everyone in the Dao Realm has been gossiping about Master Linghu Ming and his apprentice, which has made Linghu Mo physically and mentally exhausted.
His wife, on the other hand, was more open-minded about the matter, believing that since they were in love, they didn't need to care what others said.
After all, his wife, who came from the Demon Realm, was much more open-minded than the people from the Dao Realm. When she married Linghu Mo, she was also the subject of sarcastic remarks.
As a result, her wife picked up a knife and hacked several of the most gossipy people in the underworld into paralysis. This calmed the turmoil and successfully captured Linghu Mo.
But now that this happened to her own son, the mother believed that if her son was a man, he should accept the worldly test alone.
So, this mother who came from the Demon Realm gave Linghu Mo a bad idea.
That is to sever the father-son relationship with Linghu Ming. This way, he can avoid being affected by rumors and let his son take the lead.
In short, this incident has become a hot topic of conversation among people in Daoyu.
