After knowing that Xu Lingyi was not dead, Zhao Yun regained his spirits again.
"How do you like this outfit?"
He has been locking himself up for some time, not taking care of his appearance. He looks a little disheveled and no longer as energetic as before.
Of course, Eunuch Liu could only praise, "Your Majesty, you are still as heroic as ever."
"How does it compare to over a year ago?"
Zhao Yun couldn't help but ask again, and he once again began to pay attention to his appearance.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. You are now even better than before, and even more noble."
Seeing Eunuch Liu's flattering face, Zhao Yun suddenly felt bored again. "Forget it, I probably won't hear the truth from a servant like you."
Eunuch Liu quickly denied, "Your Majesty, what I said is the truth. Heaven and earth can bear witness. I have always known that countless women in the capital admire Your Majesty. Your Majesty's grace and elegance are unmatched by any man in the world."
Zhao Yun felt a little better.
"Starting tomorrow, wake me up half an hour earlier in the morning."
Zhao Yun planned to continue practicing martial arts, striving to appear in front of Xu Lingyi in the best condition.
Ever since learning that Xu Lingyi was involved with His Majesty, Grandfather has paid special attention to His Majesty and the actions in the palace.
At the morning court session that day, he saw that His Majesty was in much better condition than the day before.
Not only was his beard completely shaved, but his clothes were also extremely neat.
Everyone could see at a glance that His Majesty's mood had improved a lot.
This time the morning court session lasted until the afternoon.
His Majesty finally began to take charge of state affairs again.
Even after the court session, many ministers were left alone.
Lord Xu was also left behind.
"Why hasn't Grandfather come back today?"
At this time in the past, grandpa would have gone home long ago, but today they waited until dark and still hadn't seen grandpa's carriage.
"Don't worry, maybe something delayed him."
Grandma was also a little worried, but she still comforted Xu Lingyi: "Grandma has sent people out to ask if the neighbors have returned home."

In the palace, after Minister Lin came out, it was his turn.
"I remember you have a grandson in your family?"
"Your Majesty, I do have a grandson."
My grandfather was a little nervous. Could it be that His Majesty had discovered it?
"How old are you this year?"
When he failed to succeed in taking power, the Xu family took refuge with him.
So even though he was wary of the Xu family, he would not kill them all like his father did.
Unless the Xu family really has rebellious intentions.
"I just turned eighteen this year."
Zhao Yun nodded as he reviewed the memorials. "You're not young anymore. It's time for you to enter the government. What do you think, old general?"
Zhao Yun planned to give the Xu family a thumbs up first, and then take precautions if they had any bad intentions.
After all, the Xu family is quite special. Although they do not have military power now, they are extremely prestigious in the Northwest Army.
Grandfather's heart tightened.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. However, my grandson has always been in poor health. I have been concerned about his health since he was young, and he has barely read a book. How can I help Your Majesty with your worries?"
Xu Heshi is not in the capital now. The one in the capital is Xu Lingyi. If he were to become an official in the court, I am afraid everything would be exposed.
So even though he wanted his grandson to have a job, he still refused.
Zhao Yun seemed a little disappointed after hearing this: "Then wait until he recovers."
After leaving the palace, my grandfather felt inexplicably uneasy.
"parking!"
When my grandfather lifted the curtain of the car, he unexpectedly saw the portrait posted on the wall.
He hurriedly got out of the car and took a closer look. The portrait was clearly of Xu Lingyi, at least 80% similar.
"Sir, we have more here. If you have any information about the people in Medicine King Valley, you can get 50 taels for each one!"
Fifty taels is definitely not a small amount of money for an ordinary family, and just one clue costs fifty taels.
He looked at the amount of money his granddaughter had paid, which was directly one hundred taels of gold.
When the money reaches 100,000, it can be said that it is very powerful. With this amount, it is difficult for Xu Lingyi to hide it.
"Let's go! Go back home!"
Fortunately, the servants of the Xu family were all those who had followed the Xu family to the battlefield and retreated.
Many of them are physically disabled and cannot do heavy physical work.
The Xu family kept them in the mansion, or assigned them to work on the family farm or in the restaurant.
Therefore, the vast majority of Xu family's servants are loyal.
But it is difficult to guarantee people's hearts.
“Grandfather, you…”
Just as Xu Lingyi was about to say something, her grandfather pulled her into the yard.
He told everyone about His Majesty's abnormal condition in the palace today and the notices on the streets.
"What should we do now? Yi'er, how about you leave the capital right now?"
As soon as my grandfather finished speaking, he shook his head and said, "No, no, that won't work. I'm afraid someone will recognize me and buy me if I walk on the street."
After all, once this reward is announced, everyone outside may be an informer.
"I've found it, Grandfather, I won't leave."
There's no point in going back out.
If Zhao Yun finds her, he will tell her everything clearly.
"This is the only way. Grandfather will also tell the servants in the mansion who have seen you."
Xu Lingyi nodded indifferently.
When Xu Lingyi learned that Zhao Yun had taken away the fake corpse, she had thought that this day would come.
Although the corpse was made with great care, it was not perfect.
She had done her best to create a mask.
Xu Lingyi immediately wrote another letter. Although she didn't know if it would be too late, she still wanted to try.
She planned to ask her master and the others to leave the valley and hide.
