When facing enemies, she is like a fierce cheetah; once she locks onto a target, she will attack without hesitation.
We will not rest until we have driven the enemy into a corner and forced them to commit suicide.
As Feng Qingyun spoke, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, forming an appreciative smile.
When Yu Ji was discovered, she was just an infant in swaddling clothes outside the gate of a Taoist temple. Her small body was wrapped in tattered swaddling clothes. She didn't cry or make a fuss, and her quietness was heartbreaking.
Besides her, there was only an ancient jade pendant in the swaddling clothes. The jade pendant was warm and smooth, and a powerful character "Yu" was engraved on it, as if telling the story of her background.
Upon seeing this, the Taoist priest who adopted her named her Yu Ji. As she grew older, Yu Ji developed a strong interest in the Taoist practices of the temple.
Those obscure and difficult-to-understand Taoist scriptures were like keys to unlock the doors to a mysterious world in her eyes.
She gets up before dawn every day to meditate in the courtyard of the Taoist temple, facing the morning dew, and learns Taoist practices from the Taoist priest. She has never stopped, through the changing seasons.
Her diligence and talent enabled her to make rapid progress in Taoist practice, which is why she acquired the Taoist name "Qingning Sanren".
This symbolizes her continuous exploration and progress on the path of spiritual practice, in pursuit of inner peace and tranquility.
Feng Qingyun's voice was soft and soothing, leading Qin Qianluo through Yu Ji's growing years.
A small figure appeared in the light screen, diligently cultivating in the morning and evening light of the Taoist temple.
Initially, Yu Ji longed for a secluded life. She dreamed of finding a quiet place in the deep mountains shrouded in mist and building a Taoist temple of her own.
In the early morning, as the first rays of sunlight fell on the roof tiles, she woke up to the cheerful chirping of birds, breathing in the fresh air of the mountains and forests, and feeling the gifts of nature.
At night, lying in a rocking chair, gazing at the starry sky, listening to the chirping of insects, and sleeping with the gentle breeze and bright moon, I live a carefree and peaceful life, undisturbed by the world.
But fate is like a ruthless director, always arranging unexpected plots.
By chance, she learned about her origins. It turned out that her parents hadn't abandoned her heartlessly, but had been coerced by the royal family of a small country.
In order to protect her, her parents had no choice but to abandon her outside the Taoist temple.
Then, they were brutally murdered by the royal family, leaving only her as the sole heir, burdened with the blood feud of her family.
Feng Qingyun's voice was filled with grief and sympathy, and her tightly clenched fist trembled slightly, as if one could feel Yu Ji's anger and despair when she learned the truth.
To avenge her parents, Yu Ji resolutely left the Taoist temple. Relying on her profound Taoist skills cultivated over many years, she embarked on a path of revenge.
Along the way, she endured hardships and slept in the open, but she never once backed down.
Just as she was filled with hatred and about to settle scores with her enemies, she learned that the small country had already been destroyed by Tianxuan.
Isn't this what Taoism calls the cycle of cause and effect? Good and evil will eventually be rewarded, and everything is preordained.
The gears of fate took a strange turn here; her path of revenge came to an abrupt end, but a new journey began.
Later, Yu Ji secretly observed Emperor Tianxuan.
She disguised herself and blended into the city, moving through the streets and alleys.
Listen to the joyful laughter of the people, and also their sighs and lamentations; see how the imperial decrees affect the lives of the people.
After a long period of observation, she concluded that the emperor was a good emperor who cared about the people and had the world in his heart.
Just then, a sudden earthquake struck a certain county. In an instant, the ground shook violently, houses collapsed like playing cards, and dust filled the air.
The cries and pleas for help from the people mingled together, plunging the entire county into a living hell.
Upon seeing this tragic scene, Yu Ji felt a surge of compassion. Disregarding her own safety, she stepped forward and used her knowledge of Taoist medicine to help the suffering people.
Her good deeds were like a ray of light, illuminating the dark county and earning the love and respect of the people, as well as attracting the attention of the imperial court.
From then on, she became the Imperial Preceptor of Tianxuan, assisting the Emperor, seeking the well-being of all people, and using her power to protect this land and its inhabitants.
When Feng Qingyun mentioned the tragic story of Yu Ji's suicide during the Chu-Han Contention, a subtle and complex expression flashed in the Emperor's eyes.
It seems to express regret for Yu Ji of the Chu-Han Contention, and also a sense of incomprehension and helplessness regarding such acts of sacrifice for love.
"Hmph, how could my imperial advisor be someone who gives up so easily?" the emperor murmured.
In his heart, his imperial advisor, Yu Ji, was like a bright star, shining brightly in the court of Tianxuan.
In the Emperor's view, love is indeed one of the most beautiful emotions in the world.
However, it should never become a hindrance or shackle on the path of people like the Grand Preceptor, who have the world in their hearts and great talents.
In the Emperor's eyes, giving up one's life so easily for love was undoubtedly a sign of cowardice and irresponsibility.
It goes against the spirit of perseverance and courage that he admires, making it difficult to gain his approval.
When Feng Qingyun recounted the background and turbulent experiences of her family's imperial advisor, the emperor's originally cold and serious expression gradually softened.
His tense lips unconsciously turned up, forming a faint, relieved smile.
His eyes gleamed with reminiscence, and the scene of ordering the annihilation of that small country involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
