The Daoist waved his horsetail whisk, looking straight into Hu Xiao’s eyes, he said mysteriously: "Miss, you only need to listen to this humble one’s words, and once you enter the capital, you will meet a noble person.
"Oh, so it’s like that, Taoist-sir, thank you!" Saying that, Hu Xiao took out a silver from her sleeve and gave it to the Daoist, then smiled and said, "Dao leader, it’s been hard on you, this is your reward."
The fella also wanted to eat, but Hu Xiao wanted to see if he dared to.
With a heavy silver in his hands, the Daoist man was moved. Clenching his teeth, he returned the silver back to Hu Xiao and said righteously: "Miss, this humble one is doing good deeds and cannot accept this lady’s favor. Please accept this money."
The Daoist was extremely heartbroken. One tael of silver could buy a lot of things.
"Daoist leader, this is my kind intentions. Do good deeds all the way here. Look at you, you’re skinny like a bag of bones. Forget it, you should take the money. Otherwise, my conscience will not let you off."
Hu Xiao pushed the money back again, but she held the silver tightly, she had no intention to give the silver back to the Taoist.
The Daoist embarrassedly coughed, then said seriously: "Miss, I can’t. This humble one revealed my secrets, and originally took the risk of facing the wrath of the heavens, but now I have to accept money, I’m afraid the heavens will reduce the punishment down to East Court."
The Daoist looked to be extremely righteous, as if he was truly considering East Court.
After Hu Xiao heard this, she only sneered in her heart, thinking, you’re a foreigner, yet you have the nerve to say heaven’s retribution in front of me, why didn’t you drown in the rain?
Hu Xiao did not buy it, but the people of the south did. Seeing how the Daoist was not greedy for money and was wholeheartedly thinking about the citizens, the citizens were moved.
Everyone was praising the noble character of the Daoist man. The Daoist man was surrounded by people, listening to their endless praises.
"Daoist leader, in my opinion, you are the god sent by the heavens. Point out a path for us, and save us!" The people of the south praised the Taoist, saying that he was the god who saved the East Court.
"Everyone, listen to me. I am too weak to save you." The Daoist looked around and then whispered, "The real god is in the capital."
He only had one goal, and that was to drive the people of the south to the imperial capital.
At the same time, Xue Mier was in her room drinking tea and resting. A servant reported: "Imperial Consort Xue, Empress is not in her house.
Hearing that, Xue Mier’s movements paused, she thought, Hu Xiao is too ungrateful, even when going out to play she did not send anyone to inform me.
She waved her hand, indicating for the maidservant to leave. However, when the maidservant was about to step out of the doorstep, she called for the maidservant to stop.
"Don’t leave so quickly first. Tell me, where did the Empress go?" She thought that at this time, Hu Xiao would not go out and play casually. Something must have happened when she went out.
The servant told Hu Xiao everything that happened, including what happened to Hu Xiao on the street. Xue Mier opened her eyes wide, and was secretly annoyed that she did not follow her.
It was an exciting thought to think of such a rare opportunity to come into direct contact with an enemy who was spreading rumors.
Then, Xue Mier put down the wine cup and immediately asked: "Where’s the Taoist, are you still there?"
She thought, she could do what Hu Xiao could.
"Imperial Concubine, when this servant came back, Daoist Priest was still on the streets talking about God’s man. He should still be here, right?" The maidservant said uncertainly. Who knew if the Daoist had moved his position!
"Alright, I will dress up. Bring me over later." Xue Mier said excitedly. The servant looked at her in a daze, not knowing why she was so excited.
A quarter of an hour later, Xue Mier had changed into a new attire. Her stomach was slightly raised, and her white and tender hands constantly caressed his rotund stomach.
She was wearing loose clothes, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she was pregnant.
The maidservant’s jaw dropped in shock. What was going on? The imperial concubine had a child in a quarter of an hour? fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
"What are you blanking out for? Lead the way!"
Xue Mier was extremely satisfied, she quickly walked on the street and from a distance, she saw Hu Xiao being pushed out.
She waved at Hu Xiao, and when she saw her, her eyes lit up. She quickly walked over to Xue Mier’s side and studied her with a teasing gaze.
"Xue Mier, it’s only been a few days, and you already have one?" Hu Xiao touched her chin, and continued to speak, "Wearing a green hat on Qin Shuo’s head in broad daylight, have you grown a pair of wings?"
Hu Xiao joked, she naturally knew that Xue Mier was not that kind of person.
Xue Mier rolled her eyes, her eyes staring straight at the Daoist, and then mysteriously said: "You will know later, I am here to find him for my divination."
Xue Mier laughed with ill intentions. After hearing this, Hu Xiao finally understood that Xue Mier was here to cause trouble. Fine, since she was already here, she could just directly go up.
"Come, come, come. Make a path. Smaller. Don’t touch my sister." Hu Xiao shouted loudly.
She led the way in front, pushing through the crowd of people that were surrounding the Daoist so that Xue Mier could enter with her stomach full.
"Fellow Daoist, I’ve been pregnant for three months, but I still can’t figure out who the father is. I’m not married yet, and I’ve never slept with anyone before. Where did the child come from? Can you tell me?"
Xue Mier lowered her head and sobbed. Her pitiful appearance caused others to feel pity for her.
Don’t even know where the child came from, is it not the Son of God?
Thinking of this, everyone was greatly shocked. They all looked at each other and then looked towards the Daoist man, hoping that he would give a reasonable explanation.
After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Miss, you are carrying the son of King Yan in your stomach. You have a very strong killing intent in you, which is able to suppress the ghost aura the child is born with, so King Hades chose you."
Hearing this, Xue Mier’s face became deathly pale. She grabbed onto the Daoist’s sleeve and said with a terrified voice: "Dao leader, what do I do? I don’t want this child. I’m still young, I don’t want to die ..."
As Xue Mier stood behind her, she couldn’t help but raise a thumb in his heart. Good, this guy is better at acting than Qin Shuo.
It was time to set up a stage in the Imperial Palace so that the emperors of the palace could perform it in turn. Their performance would definitely be more spectacular than the actors outside.
Xue Mier kept patting the child in her stomach, as if she wanted to beat the child away.
