Chapter 85 Am I being disliked?
Cen Nan:......
Am I being disliked?
"Your Highness, are you done yet? If you are, can we go back to our room together? I have something I've always wanted to try."
Xiao Yulan nodded and said, "I'm done. Cen Nan, you should handle the matter that the king gave you as soon as possible. By the way, Ruo'er, the money for the Yangbu family army will come from those three gold mines. I will ask Cen Nan to deliver it on time."
"Although your dowry is considerable, you won't be able to survive for long if you rely solely on the shop and the farm."
Bu Ruo raised an eyebrow. It would be great if someone could help her out with money. Although Yanzhilou made a lot of money, who would complain about having too much money? She still had to save her money for the rebellion.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness. Actually, I didn't bring any of the money and farms and shops from the Zhenguo Mansion with me. I'm going to leave them to my parents and brothers."
After the two returned to the room, Bu Ruo pushed Xiao Yulan onto the chair and said, "Sit still. No matter what I do, don't resist."
"good."
Xiao Yulan watched as Bu Ruo took her hand and relaxed her body, letting go of all her defenses and inner strength, feeling the warmth coming from Bu Ruo's hand.
"Close your eyes and feel the changes in your body, especially... whether there are things like a sea of flowers appearing in your mind."
Xiao Yulan frowned: "It seems so, but it also seems not so."
"What do you mean?" Bu Ruo was puzzled.
"I followed your instructions and came to a place I don't know what it is. It seems to be very empty in front, but I can't get through. However, it's not a sea of flowers, it seems to be something else."
"Can't get through? What kind of can't get through?"
"It's like there's a barrier separating that space."
Bu Ruo can now control her own spiritual sense, but she still doesn't dare to use her spiritual sense to explore the differences of Xiao Yulan. She can only guide him to discover it himself.
So when she heard Xiao Yulan's description, she understood instantly. She guessed correctly. Xiao Yulan was indeed different. He had spiritual consciousness, but he didn't know it himself.
But if he has spiritual consciousness, then who is he?
Bu Ruo lowered his head and thought for a moment: "Do you need me to help you break the barrier? It won't be dangerous, but it might be a little uncomfortable."
Xiao Yulan was also very curious about the space in her mind: "Then I'll trouble Ruo'er."
Bu Ruo transformed the seven-colored light that entered Xiao Yulan's body into the shape of a needle. While observing his condition, he slowly controlled the needle to slowly pierce the barrier.
“Hmm…”
"What's wrong? If it's uncomfortable, let's stop."
"It's nothing, I just feel...a bit of a headache. Ruo'er, you can continue. I can bear it."
Bu Ruo looked at the dense beads of sweat oozing from Xiao Yulan's forehead and knew that he must be trying his best to endure. In fact, she didn't necessarily have to open his spiritual sense, but if she could open his spiritual sense, the toxins in his body would be quickly eliminated, and he wouldn't have to suffer so much every time he detoxified.
Although Xiao Yulan had never told her, she could still discover from the expression he occasionally revealed that he felt powerless against the poison, as well as his resentment towards the late emperor and queen.
Sensing that the barrier was loosening, Bu Ruo slowly withdrew the power from his body.
"That's all for today, and we'll continue tomorrow. I guarantee that within three days, we'll be able to break this barrier. If you truly possess divine consciousness, then your secrets will be revealed, and you'll know who you truly are."
Xiao Yulan looked at Bu Ruo: "Ruo'er, who do you think this king will be?"
Bu Ruo shook her head: "I don't know either, but I always feel that you can't be just you."
"Spiritual consciousness is not something that ordinary people can have. Let's put it this way, even if an immortal like the Heavenly Master practices for his entire life, he will never be able to cultivate spiritual consciousness unless he can obtain the Great Dao."
Xiao Yulan seemed to understand. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Bu Ruo seriously: "Ruo'er, since you can let Phantom see what happened in the past, then... can you also let me see what happened between my father and mother?"
"Well... I can, but Phantom saw those scenes when he was a child so I can go deeper. But you were not there when my father and mother passed away. If you want to see them, you can only go back to the place where these things happened."
"For example... the place where the Queen Mother used to live, but now the Queen lives in Fengyi Palace, so it's not easy for us to go in."
Xiao Yulan shook her head: "My mother has a free and easy personality and doesn't like being restricted, so she didn't live in Fengyi Palace back then."
"If Ruo'er isn't sleepy now, I'll take you to where your mother used to live."
After half an hour, Bu Ruo followed Feng Qianjue through most of the imperial palace and a bamboo forest, and finally saw the place where the late queen had lived before.
In the bamboo forest, there is a three-story building in a huge courtyard. Perhaps no one has taken care of it for a long time, and there are a lot of nameless small flowers growing in the courtyard.
"This is where my mother used to live. My father was deeply in love with her and specially planted this bamboo forest and built this small building for her. No one except her was allowed to enter or leave at will."
"My mother has told me more than once that she doesn't want me to be the emperor. She only hopes that I can live a free life without any constraints. However, the royal family has always been a life-or-death struggle, and I am no exception."
Bu Ruo was led into the house by Xiao Yulan. Many things inside were gone now, but it was not difficult to imagine how warm this place once was.
"Are you ready?"
Seeing Xiao Yulan nodded nervously, Bu Ruo sighed and transformed into a purple flower floating in the air. The bamboo forest slowly changed its appearance as it was surrounded by the purple light.
In the bamboo forest, a woman in casual clothes, who looked 80% similar to Xiao Yulan, sat calmly on a rocking chair in the yard, looking at the flowers all over the ground and smiling gently, as if time had never left any traces on her face.
"Lan'er has been gone for so long, I don't know when he will be back."
The maidservant beside her handed over the washed fruit and comforted her, "I heard from the palace servants that the prince will be back soon. Your Majesty, please wait a little longer. The prince will definitely come back before your birthday."
"Hey, why work so hard? Wouldn't it be better to be a leisurely prince? I actually hope he's just an ordinary wealthy businessman who doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. That position is too tiring."
The maid laughed and said, "Except you, which lady in the palace doesn't want her son to sit in that position? You are different."
"What's the difference? Tell me about it."
"Your Majesty is here. I was just talking about Lan'er. I don't know when he will be back..."
The scene changed, and the queen stood expressionlessly in front of the third-floor window, listening to the sound of the funeral knell.
"Empress, Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
"The palace is now controlled by Consort Xian's people. We have people left here by the Emperor, so they can't get in for the time being."
