Wen Zhixuan: "..."
The clever Fifth Princess ran over and added, "You naughty thing."
Emperor Hongde finally came to his senses and pretended to rebuke, "Don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Shumiao puffed out her cheeks and turned her head away haughtily.
I won't listen, I won't listen, you're just spouting nonsense.
Emperor Hongde had no choice but to have the Crown Prince take them away. He then said to Wen Zhixuan, "The children are ignorant, please don't take offense, Grand Preceptor."
Wen Zhixuan said modestly, "Your Majesty is too kind. The princess and the county princess are both people with great fortune and extraordinary destiny."
Emperor Hongde was pleased to hear this and continued to discuss the imperial examination with him.
The results of the provincial examination have been released, and the metropolitan examination will be held in August.
It's a bit urgent.
But there was no way around it; the imperial examination system was newly established and not yet perfect, and it would be gradually adjusted later.
Let's select a group of students from underprivileged families first this year.
On the other side, the Crown Prince, accompanied by a bunch of little kids, asked Jiang Shumiao, "Miaomiao doesn't like the Imperial Preceptor?"
Jiang Shumiao snorted, "He's a bad guy."
The Fifth Princess nodded in agreement, "Bad guy."
The Crown Prince didn't actually like Wen Zhixuan very much, always feeling that the man was somewhat gloomy and had a deep mind. Seeing the little baby, not even a year old, speaking with such certainty and conviction, his mind began to change.
I've heard before that children have pure eyes and can see things that adults can't.
Wen Zhixuan was a Taoist practitioner.
So he asked, half-seriously and half-probingly, "You've never even met him, how do you know he's a bad person?"
Jiang Shumiao glanced at him.
The crown prince was burned at the stake because he discovered that Wen Zhixuan was raising demons.
"I just saw him."
Jiang Shumiao looked innocent and said, "I don't like him."
The fifth princess parrot mimicked, "I don't like it."
Then the two sisters held hands and skipped away.
The crown prince chuckled.
He's really obsessed, actually asking a clueless baby for confirmation.
On March 29th, Jiang Zhixu returned to Beijing.
Jiang Zhimiao was taken to Chang Le Palace by the Crown Prince.
She spotted Wen Zhixuan at a glance. He was still wearing his white robe as always, looking like a sage, but in reality, he had a black heart.
"uncle."
Emperor Hongde beckoned, "Come here."
Jiang Shumiao ran up to him and was lifted onto his lap. "Miaomiao seems to have gained some weight recently."
Jiang Shumiao was unhappy.
【You're the fat one, your whole family is fat. Chubby kids are cute, don't you understand?】
Unfortunately, no one heard her true feelings.
At this moment, a guard came in to report, "Your Majesty, the Duke of Anguo has arrived."
Emperor Hongde: "Summon."
Jiang Shumiao looked up and saw several people walk in.
When a subject is to meet the king, he must bathe and change his clothes as a sign of reverence. (Except in cases of urgent summons.)
The one at the very front wearing the dark robe is Jiang Zhixu.
Although Jiang Zhimiao had never met her biological father, she knew that he held the highest official position.
"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty."
"Rise."
Emperor Hongde was very pleased. "You all deserve great credit for driving out the barbarians and quelling the rebellion in the northwest. You should all be richly rewarded."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Jiang Shumiao glanced at Wen Zhixuan and saw that his hand was hidden in his sleeve, knowing that he had begun to cast a spell.
In the original story, after the discovery of the witchcraft doll at Princess Huyang's residence, it was surrounded by the Imperial Guards.
Emperor Hongde then urgently summoned Jiang Zhixu back to the capital for questioning. He still harbored doubts, but Wen Zhixuan used evil magic to control Jiang Zhixu's mind, causing him to become mentally unstable and attempt an assassination. This angered the emperor and brought disaster upon his entire family.
Soldiers possess a righteous spirit that keeps evil spirits at bay.
Wen Zhixuan obtained Jiang Zhixu's birth date and time from Jiang Sixian, and then attached his newly cultivated, yet unharmed, demonic spirit to a peach wood puppet, thus gaining temporary control over Jiang Zhixu. In the end, the demonic spirit was injured by the Ziwei True Qi on Emperor Hongde's body, and its soul was scattered.
He must have set up a formation in his own residence, and now he wants to activate it with blood.
Those who returned from the battlefield all bore some wounds, which conveniently masked the slight smell of blood.
Wen Zhixuan remained expressionless, but the pad of his left middle finger had been cut.
The formation is activated.
However--
The piercing sound almost shattered his eardrums; it was the demon spirit that had broken the seal.
The puppet shattered.
Wen Zhixuan coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Everyone looked over.
Wow, the male lead has suffered a backlash.
Jiang Shumiao's eyes sparkled; she was practically bursting with laughter inside.
I told you long ago, you can't handle my luck.
Emperor Hongde stood up. "What's wrong with the Imperial Advisor? Quickly, summon the Imperial Physician."
A palace servant brought a chair for Wen Zhixuan to sit on. He pressed his chest, his face pale, but shook his head. "A few days ago, I captured a flower demon. I saw that she had not yet done anything evil, and thinking that her cultivation was not easy and I did not want to add to her karma, I locked her up to purify her demonic energy. Who knew that her demonic nature was untamable, and she broke through the seal and escaped."
He cupped his hands and said, “Your Majesty, this demon’s inner demons are hard to eradicate, and she will surely wreak havoc on the world. Please allow me to take my leave so that I may capture her as soon as possible.”
Emperor Hongde had witnessed him slaying demons and believed this statement without a doubt.
"Very well, I will send someone to assist you."
Wen Zhixuan said, "Mortals cannot fight against demons; it will only increase casualties. I alone am enough."
Jiang Shumiao pouted.
[You've even installed it? Let's see how long you can keep up your stubbornness.]
The demon spirit had already been trapped by her.
Wen Zhixuan is currently seriously injured and will need at least a month to recover.
She skipped and hopped to Jiang Zhixu, "Daddy, hug me."
A subject cannot look directly at the emperor, which is why Jiang Zhixu had not seen Jiang Shumiao beside Emperor Hongde.
Wen Zhixuan suddenly vomited blood, attracting everyone's attention.
