Chapter 405 Rebellion
Completed in one go.
Before long, a talisman shimmering with purple light took shape under Yu Zhiyi's brush.
"Purple... Earth grade?" Yu Zhiyi was somewhat taken aback.
She knew this talisman would be powerful, but she didn't expect it to be this powerful.
The master said...
That's all.
The master's words are not always correct.
For example, my master once said that there are very few Golden Core Realm experts in the world, and the number of Foundation Establishment Realm experts can be counted in the hundreds.
However, in less than half a year since her rebirth, she has already encountered several Foundation Establishment Realm experts, and even some Golden Core Realm experts.
Therefore, whether earth-grade items are truly that rare in the Hidden Realm remains to be seen.
But she wouldn't question her intuition.
This thing can definitely harm Master Qingfeng.
Before she could even catch her breath, a sudden wave of intense dizziness struck her, and before she could even react to what was happening, her eyes rolled back and she passed out.
She fainted so suddenly that she didn't even have time to think about anything.
I woke up again on the morning of the third day.
The scents of Li Rou and Zhang Xiang lingered at the doorway; she could still sense Li Rou's anxiety.
Zhang Xiang asked anxiously, "Sister Li Rou, is Miss alright?"
Li Rou didn't know either.
But she couldn't afford to lose her composure at this moment, so she could only say, "Miss is so capable, she'll definitely be alright."
Zhang Xiang was worried and wanted to go in and check.
Li Rou remembered Yu Zhiyi's previous instructions that no one should disturb her while she was in seclusion, so she firmly refused.
Helpless, Zhang Xiang had no choice but to give up, and the worry on her face grew stronger.
At the same time, she was also a little puzzled: "Why hasn't Madam come looking for Miss these past two days?"
Li Rou said, "Madam is a martial artist, and she also needs to go into seclusion."
Zhang Xiang nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
When Yu Zhiyi opened the door, her gaze swept lightly across Zhang Xiang's face before turning to Li Rou.
Li Rou's face immediately lit up with joy: "Miss, you've finally come out of seclusion!"
Yu Zhiyi had previously gone into seclusion, but not indefinitely; she would definitely come out and be active for a period of time each day.
They either went out to chat with Xiao Qingxuan and the others, went to report to the Ministry of Justice, or went to Yiluan Charity.
This time, she went into seclusion for three days, which terrified both of her maids.
Yu Zhiyi smiled and said, "I'm fine, don't worry, I just accidentally forgot the time I was supposed to leave the pass."
Without giving it much thought, Li Rou asked, "Miss, are you hungry? Would you like to eat?"
Yu Zhiyi wasn't actually very hungry. Foundation Establishment Realm experts are already capable of abstaining from grains, and they wouldn't starve to death even if they didn't eat for a month.
Moreover, truly embarking on the path of cultivation requires careful conduct and a clear mind and body. Eating grains and cereals will cause impurities in a cultivator's body, which will affect their cultivation level over time.
However, her cultivation path is different from that of ordinary cultivators, so she still retains the habits of ordinary people.
The food arrived shortly afterward.
While eating, Yu Zhiyi asked, "Has anything happened in the capital these past few days?"
At that moment, Zhang Xiang went downstairs to fetch the chicken soup, and Li Rou said, "Nothing else, there's just one thing..."
She looked at her young mistress cautiously, trying to choose her words carefully.
Ultimately, it turned out that deliberation was pointless.
Moreover, if the young lady is unaware of this situation, she will likely be completely clueless when she faces the future.
Then he said, "Your Highness, you are fully recovered."
Yu Zhiyi exclaimed in surprise, "What?"
She looked up at Li Rou, who nodded firmly: "I went grocery shopping a couple of days ago and saw the Prince of Xiaoyao on the street. He was riding a tall horse, and when he arrived at a restaurant, he dismounted and walked into the restaurant himself."
Yu Zhiyi picked up a piece of food, chewed it, and finally the confusion that had been lingering in her mind was resolved.
She said that even a highly accomplished person like Master Qingfeng wouldn't dare to act rashly because of worldly laws and the fear of incurring karmic consequences.
Not daring to act easily doesn't mean not daring to act.
Aside from standing on the observatory to monitor her every day and sending out the disastrous Yu Jiaojiao, the other party remained completely silent.
This is very unusual.
Only now did she realize that the other party had already made their move.
Moreover, they used a method that could directly suppress all her vital organs.
The carefree king is done.
The carefree king is of noble birth and is a sovereign.
She was a subject.
If the Prince of Xiaoyao is truly determined to kill her, she will only have two options.
Either turn the tables and kill him, or escape.
No matter which choice she made, Master Qingfeng would always appear in time and use an excuse to kill her.
cunning and treacherous.
She looked towards the observatory, but the figure who stood there every day was gone.
She looked up at the sky again.
Fortunately, although the fortunes of Shengjing have changed, the newly formed energy is not yet able to overcome the old energy.
Yu Zhiyi no longer worries about the emperor.
Anyway, I won't die anytime soon.
After finishing her breakfast, she tidied herself up and went to the Ministry of Justice.
This time, she dutifully worked seven days and completed two months' worth of work.
When she left the Ministry of Justice on the last day, her face was as pale as paper, looking terribly unwell.
The Minister of Justice was startled: "Oh my, Lord Yu, what's wrong with you?"
The emperor's health suddenly began to deteriorate, and it was showing a trend of getting worse. The imperial physicians had consulted for a long time but could not find a solution.
They didn't even know what illness the emperor had.
Meanwhile, the carefree king's health was getting better and better. Not only was he able to move freely, but he was also radiant and looked even better than before he was paralyzed.
The situation in the court was changing rapidly, and the Minister of Justice didn't even have the mind to joke that Yu Zhiyi was finally focused on her work and wasn't working half-heartedly anymore.
Now, even Yu Zhiyi's situation has become less than ideal.
Yu Zhiyi shook her head: "I'm fine, just a little tired. I've already finished 45 days' worth of work, so if I take these three days off, I have 42 days of vacation."
Minister of Justice: "?"
Suddenly I realized that my worries had been wasted.
So, the reason she works so hard isn't because she loves her job, but because she wants a better vacation?
If the emperor's situation weren't so dire, he would have gone to the palace to lodge a complaint.
What kind of subordinate would bully someone like that?!
The holidays are even longer than those in Shangfeng!
They're living a much more comfortable life than Shangfeng!
However, there was nothing that could be done, as the nature of Yu Zhiyi's job was personally determined by the emperor.
The requirement to personally ask the emperor for leave was not mandatory. As long as she completed her work and followed the work system set for her by the emperor, she could indeed ask for leave and slack off.
The Minister of Justice had to exert tremendous effort to suppress his envy, jealousy, and hatred, and tearfully approved the leave.
As a result, Yu Zhiyi was granted a 42-day vacation.
After the holiday started, the first thing she did was go back to Taoyuan and sleep like a log.
This sleep wasn't very long, only twelve hours.
At the same time the next day, Yu Zhiyi opened her eyes.
Her complexion has returned to normal.
That evening.
The Imperial Palace.
Master Qingfeng stood at the best vantage point on the Star Gazing Platform, but instead of observing the celestial phenomena, he was looking towards the direction of Peach Garden.
He had concealed his presence, and no one except himself knew that he was standing on a high platform dozens of meters high, looking at an inconspicuous mansion in the capital like a pervert.
Although he has not been involved in matters in the capital these days, he also seems not to have interfered in You Bingyue's affairs.
But in reality, You Bingyue did not suffer.
She was in a luxury cell, a specially decorated single room with a single bed covered with soft bedding, and the room was dry and clean.
Every day, someone delivers three meals to her on time.
In fact, whatever she wanted, as long as it wasn't something that wasn't available in the capital or was extremely rare, someone would send it to her.
It's less about going to jail and more about self-cultivation.
He didn't do anything intentionally to Yu Zhiyi.
It was just a rumor.
Yu Zhiyi is going to the palace tonight.
Yes, he was absolutely certain she would enter the palace.
He had been lying low for so long, all for this moment.
He had found a suitable ambush location where there would be no extra people, and therefore no indiscriminate killing of innocent people.
If she enters the palace, she will surely die!
She must have known that.
He must be in a dilemma now.
But Master Qingfeng had an inexplicable confidence; he was certain she would come.
Qingfeng Zhenren is not the only one with this kind of confidence.
The carefree prince thought so too.
Long after he recovered, he managed to contact Master Qingfeng and asked him to help You Bingyue get justice, posing as her friend.
Master Qingfeng cannot harm innocent beings, yet he can harm Yu Zhiyi, a cultivator.
So I agreed.
At that moment, Prince Xiaoyao stood by the bedside, looking at the emperor's dying appearance, and laughed heartily: "Brother, how does it feel to be able to barely survive like a dog?"
The emperor lay on the bed, his breath faint.
He was still conscious, but at that moment he wished he could just pass out.
He glared at the carefree prince with resentment: "Why?"
Why did you betray him?!
The carefree prince chuckled: "Does Your Majesty truly not know why I am like this?"
"When you abandoned me for Yu Zhiyi, didn't you ever think that you might face my revenge?"
Before the emperor could say anything, he suddenly realized something: "Oh, you didn't think of that, because you didn't believe I could recover at all. You thought I would be bedridden for the rest of my life, didn't you?"
He looked down at the emperor, his expression vicious, his eyes filled with hatred: "Brother, I am your own brother! How could you treat me like this!"
The emperor was bewildered: "How have I treated you? Haven't I been good to you all these years?"
"What's so good about it?" the carefree king said coldly. "Since ancient times, the imperial family has been the most ruthless. In order to avoid the fate of being killed after the rabbit is caught, I have tried my best to restrain my sharpness. I didn't expect you to be so unforgiving. You insist on making me a complete cripple before you will let me go! Since that's the case, then I can only take the throne."
"You...you..." The emperor was so angry he couldn't speak.
Suddenly, he turned his face away and stopped looking at the carefree king.
He still has one hope.
Yu Qing.
As long as Yu Qing can come.
There is still hope for him.
The carefree prince saw through his thoughts and sneered, "Brother, you're not still waiting for Yu Zhiyi to save you, are you?"
"To tell you the truth, if she enters the palace, she will surely die!"
