Chapter 222 Guess What the Imperial Advisor's Name Is



With a mixture of probing and unease, she asked softly, "Yunbao, why did the Imperial Advisor suddenly appear in court? Could it be that some natural disaster is about to occur?"

When Feng Qingyun heard her question, she was slightly taken aback at first, but then she realized what she meant.

She flipped through the documents, and after a while, Feng Qingyun said in a light tone, "Luo Bao, don't worry."

I have investigated carefully, and it will take several years for Tianxuan Kingdom to recover.

Although there may be some minor disasters such as localized floods and droughts, there will definitely be no major natural disasters.

Those major earthquakes, floods, and locust plagues will not occur, and the people will not suffer too much hardship.

Don't worry about it.

I have no idea why the Imperial Preceptor suddenly appeared in court; perhaps only she herself knows the reason.

Upon hearing Feng Qingyun's reply, Qin Qianluo first tilted her head slightly, causing her ink-black hair to sway gently.

Immediately afterwards, she raised her eyebrows slightly, her slender eyebrows resembling willow leaves swaying in the spring breeze, and her eyes instantly filled with curiosity and inquiry.

In his mind, the image of the Imperial Preceptor, with his otherworldly demeanor, became clearer and clearer, with his long purple-gold robe flowing in the wind.

She seemed to be enveloped in a mysterious halo, but this only deepened the doubts in her heart.

She subconsciously bit her lower lip, her rosy lips gently bitten by her pearly teeth, leaving a faint mark.

Then, she cautiously looked around and saw that some ministers were talking in hushed tones, while others were tidying up their tablets. Fortunately, no one paid any attention to her.

She breathed a slight sigh of relief, and asked with a mixture of urgency and caution, "Since the Imperial Preceptor is a Taoist..."

Popular legend also says that she was proficient in the art of Qimen Dunjia, able to observe the stars at night and know the secrets of heaven, possessing great supernatural powers.

However, there are many sorcerers in this world, most of whom rely on sweet talk and deception to swindle money.

Now that I see the Imperial Advisor is so mysterious, I am really curious whether she truly has the ability to communicate with the gods, to see through the secrets of heaven, to save the world and bring peace to the people, and to use her supreme wisdom to solve the problems of Tianxuan Kingdom.

Or is he like those charlatans who only know how to mystify, possessing only a name but lacking any real talent or ability, merely using the name of Taoism to gain a foothold in the court?

Feng Qingyun flipped through the information on the Imperial Advisor and said slowly, "Luo Bao, you must not underestimate this Imperial Advisor. She comes from the orthodox Taoist lineage and has a very deep background."

From a young age, he devoted himself to cultivation in a quiet Taoist temple far from the hustle and bustle of the world, accompanied by the morning bell and evening drum.

What he has learned and understood is the essence of Taoism, far surpassing those charlatans who deceive people on the streets with flowery words and illusions.

She paused slightly. "Normally, she always wore a plain robe, the hem of which swayed gently in the breeze."

She exudes a cool and aloof aura, like a fairy who has stepped out of a painting, untouched by worldly affairs.

Don't be fooled by appearances; her true abilities are hidden beneath this seemingly calm exterior.

Take divination and astrology for example; all she needs to do is arrange tortoise shells and yarrow stalks on a quiet night.

In a moment of focused concentration, one can discern the secrets of heaven from the minute cracks in the tortoise shell and the wondrous arrangement of the yarrow stalks.

It could predict the rise and fall of all things in the world, from the change of dynasties to the fortunes of individuals, with unerring accuracy.

Her expertise in health preservation and medical principles is even more astonishing.

"The meridians and acupoints of the human body are like a clear map in her eyes. She knows the properties, flavors, meridian tropism, effects and compatibility of various herbs by heart."

With just a few herbs, you can concoct effective remedies to cure diseases and save lives, whether it's difficult to treat complex illnesses or for daily health maintenance.

There was once a minister who was seriously ill. He had sought out many renowned doctors, but none could cure him. Finally, the Imperial Advisor intervened, and after a few doses of medicine, the minister gradually recovered.

At this point, Feng Qingyun's voice grew even lower, carrying a hint of mystery: "And her martial arts skills, those are truly hidden talents."

You know Xuanling, right? We've all witnessed Xuanling's martial arts skills before; he's an outstanding master among the many secret guards.

Yet, despite this profound spirit's many sparring sessions with the Imperial Preceptor, he was always utterly overwhelmed by the Imperial Preceptor's exquisite and unparalleled moves, leaving him powerless to retaliate.

When the Imperial Advisor made his moves, his movements were agile and his punches were fierce; every move and stance embodied the Taoist principles of yin-yang balance and the harmony of strength and gentleness.

Feng Qingyun paused slightly, her mysterious smile growing even stronger. "Luo Bao, why don't you guess who this mysterious and highly skilled person is?"

What is the name of the Imperial Preceptor who is skilled in both Taoist magic and medicine?

The Emperor's gaze was fixed on the entrance of the main hall when he saw a familiar yet mysterious figure slowly step in.

In an instant, his expression suddenly hardened, and his eyes flashed with undisguised surprise.

His pupils contracted slightly as images of past natural disasters flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

The floodwaters raged, destroying houses, and people struggled and cried for help in the floodwaters.

The drought spread, the land cracked, crops failed, and people starved to death everywhere.

These scenes were like nightmares, filling his heart with fear and worry.

Alarm bells rang in his mind, and his first thought was whether the Tianxuan Kingdom was about to face another terrible catastrophe.

He subconsciously sat up straight, his hands gripping the armrests of the dragon throne tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force, his brows furrowed, and his eyes filled with worry and vigilance.

The atmosphere in the entire court seemed to instantly become heavy and oppressive because of his subtle change, as if the air itself had frozen.

Just as the Emperor was filled with worry and felt that he was about to be crushed by the heavy pressure, he heard Qin Qianluo's inner voice.
