Zhou Xing nodded, "So it's you two. I've heard so much about you."
How could he not recognize these two people? Of course not. Don't forget how much effort he put into getting these two together.
Feng Guang asked, "How did you all end up here?"
Chen Hongdou looked quite embarrassed, so Yang Jie explained, "Actually... I am an adopted child of the Yang family. The reason I am in the palace is because..."
Feng Guang exclaimed, "Could you be the Second Prince who has been missing for many years?"
“Not bad.” Yang Jie nodded. When he was first told that his identity was so illustrious, he couldn’t believe it either.
Feng Guang shook his head, "How is that possible..."
It's no wonder she couldn't believe it; in the original story, the male lead didn't even have the identity of a prince. Now, a second prince suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and the male lead was even playing the role of this second prince... Her God's eye had been completely destroyed!
“The scenery.” Zhou Xing called her name softly.
She was taken aback for a moment, but quickly regained her composure and said calmly, "I never expected that you would be the Second Prince."
Chen Hongdou asked Feng Guang, "And why is Miss Xia here at the palace?"
"Oh, my husband is His Highness the Crown Prince."
Chen Hongdou: "..."
After much thought, it seems that the identity of the Crown Prince is more terrifying than that of the Second Prince.
In such a small place as Tong County, a crown prince and crown princess suddenly emerged, followed by a second prince and second prince's wife. I doubt anyone would believe it if I told them.
Finally, the old man spoke, "It turns out that you all know each other. It's truly fate."
"Master Wuqiu," Zhou Xing nodded slightly, "It's been a long time. How have you been?"
"I am grateful for Your Highness's concern. I am a humble monk with nothing but the finest things in the world."
Judging from his luxurious attire, one would never guess that he was penniless.
Just then, a eunuch came to summon him, saying that His Majesty wanted to see the Second Prince, so Yang Jie and Chen Hongdou went ahead.
Master Wuqiu said, "I predicted that His Highness would return to the palace today, so I went to the palace and ran into the Second Prince."
Zhou Li believed that the older he got, the more he wanted to have an elixir of immortality. As a result, Daoist Wuqiu obtained the position of Imperial Preceptor. Some people said he had real skills, while others said he was a fraud. But who knows whether he was a charlatan or not?
Zhou Xing said, "I'm the one who has caused you worry, Daoist."
Years ago, when Wuqiu first saw Zhou Xing, he was amazed by his otherworldly demeanor and tried his best to recruit him into Taoism. Unfortunately, Zhou Xing laughed and said that he was a mortal and could not become an immortal, so the matter was dropped.
"So this little girl is the Crown Princess you married." Wuqiu clicked his tongue twice. "Not bad, very good."
Feng Guang gave a dry laugh, "Daoist Master, you're not bad either."
“Little girl, I mean you’re really good.” Wuqiu suddenly sighed.
The smile in Zhou Xing's eyes faded. "Has the Daoist master divined something again?"
"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed." Wuqiu shook his head mysteriously. "Alright, I'm relieved after seeing you. I'm going back to continue refining pills. Take care."
Before Zhou Xing could stop him, Wu Qiu had already used his lightness skill to run away, his speed making it seem as if someone was chasing him.
“Fengguang…” Zhou Xing grasped Fengguang’s hand. “What’s wrong?”
"No...it's nothing." She shook her head.
Just as Master Wuqiu was leaving, the old man's voice echoed in her mind, "If Zhou Xing is in trouble, you can come and find me at Wuqiu Temple outside the city."
