After an incense stick of time, the conditions of the five stargazers finally stabilized and the pain in their bodies was gone.
The imperial doctors quickly performed the "sleeping pain relief spell", and this time the healing spell worked, and the injured stargazers finally fell asleep.
The emperor also breathed a sigh of relief. He said in a dry voice, "From today on... don't seek any more information about Song."
This was inevitable. Even if he ordered to continue the exploration, the remaining stargazers would not dare to do so.
"Also," the emperor looked at his fourth son, "Qingguo, next time you meet Senior Ge..., be polite to him. Senior Ge is a non-confrontational and generous person. You can spend more time with people like him."
Jun Qingguo: "Ah? How can you tell that Ge...Senior is generous?"
The emperor analyzed, "Didn't you say that Ge was tied up by you? At that time, she didn't attack you and even chatted with you, which shows that she has a relatively easy-going personality. And later, when you took the initiative to provoke her, she didn't kill you, but only punished you..."
"So, Senior Ge has a pretty good personality?" Jun Qingguo touched his chin and thought.
"Of course. If you see her again next time, remember to express goodwill to her on behalf of the royal family," said the emperor.
"Father, do you think it is possible that Senior Ge is our ancestor?" Jun Qingguo asked with his head tilted.
The emperor was shocked: "What?"
How did he become an ancestor?
Jun Qingguo said seriously, "Perhaps Senior Ge didn't disguise herself, and her true appearance is just like that. As everyone knows, the higher the realm of cultivation, the slower one ages and the longer one's lifespan. It's normal for Senior Ge, who is so strong, to have a youthful face. Her tolerance towards her son is out of love for future generations..."
emperor:"……"
I almost believed it.
"Qingguo, you're overthinking it. Everyone in the Jun royal family is registered in the family register. Our direct lineage almost died out, but I have so many children. Your royal grandfather only had one son and one daughter, and I was the crown prince from birth... Ahem, that's getting off topic. Anyway, our ancestors have long since passed away. If Senior Ge really has royal blood, then she is most likely from the collateral branch and has little to do with ours... But we can confer the title of prince on Senior Ge. Even if she is from a collateral branch, she is still somewhat related to us by blood. If we interact more often in the future, our relationship will become closer..."
These words were not suitable to be said in front of outsiders, so the emperor used telepathy to teach his son a lesson and warned him, "From now on, do not mention Senior Ge in front of outsiders. Keep it as secret as possible and do not tell your brothers. The fewer people who know the news, the better."
At present, the true identity of Senior Ge is still uncertain, and everything is just speculation. If the matter is told to the other sons, and then they find out that Senior Ge actually has no connection with the royal family, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
So, it’s better to keep a low profile and let nature take its course. If Jun Qingguo can connect with the song, that would be the best. If not, then forget it. Don’t force it.
Next, the emperor comforted the astrologers with a few words, asked the imperial physician to take good care of the injured, and promised to treat the injured for life.
The emperor left with his fourth son. Just when they had walked a dozen steps, a guard came to see him.
Jun Qingguo remembered that he still had to deliver the ginseng pill to Yuan Zhan, so he said, "Father, I will take my leave now."
"Go ahead." The emperor nodded. After his son left, he asked the guard, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, Miss Lan Zhi of the Lan family went to visit Prince Yuan Zhan outside the military camp..."
The emperor frowned and asked, "Did Lan Zhi take the initiative? No one forced her?"
The guard thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "I don't know either. Miss Lan Zhi must have left the Lan Mansion on her own initiative, but she took an unfamiliar carriage to the military camp. According to investigation, the driver of that carriage was actually a spy sent by Prince Rui..."
"Then Lan Zhi must have been coerced?" The emperor frowned. He didn't want Lan Zhi to take the initiative in this matter. He was still counting on his youngest son Jun Weihe to compete with Yuan Zhan for the woman. Could it be that Lan Zhi really fell in love with that useless prince?
The emperor asked, "What has Prince Jing been doing these days?"
"I don't know, but Prince Jing hasn't left the palace for a long time. Maybe he is in seclusion practicing?" The guard lowered his head.
In fact, Jun Weihe went to kill Prince Rui through the teleportation array under the palace.
"This kid only knows how to do nothing!" The emperor cursed. In his opinion, Jun Weihe might as well use his time in seclusion to ask Lanzhi to go out and play.
After all, Jun Weihe's cultivation talent was far too poor, his realm always stuck at the early stages of the Infant Yuan Realm, only slightly stronger than an average person. Jun Weihe had begun cultivation at a young age, and at that time the emperor had believed he had a gifted son. However, his son's true aptitude was astonishingly poor, remaining stuck at the Infant Yuan Realm for years. He was as useless as Prince Rui's son, Yuan Zhan. The emperor no longer expected Jun Weihe to become a top-tier master, only hoping he could live a peaceful and carefree life, marry and have children...
So, last time, Jun Weihe should seize the time to pursue the girl.
Why haven't we seen him take action yet?
I'm so pissed off.
None of my sons can make me worry-free.
"It seems having too many sons isn't good..." the emperor muttered. He thought of his other sons and asked, "Where is the Thirteenth Prince? What is he doing?"
"The Thirteenth Prince has been playing the zither at home every day lately."
"He... can play the piano?" The emperor found it unbelievable. Could it be that he was trying to escape by finding someone to learn the piano for him, and then he actually ran away?
"I don't know." The guard lowered his head.
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he thought it was possible. His sons were all grown up and could no longer live in the palace. Although the emperor did not make his sons kings, he did arrange for them to have residences outside the palace. Who could have imagined that after leaving the palace, these sons would each release their true nature...
The tenth prince wanted to become a monk, but the emperor wouldn't allow it. So he secretly enshrined a golden statue of the Buddha in his own residence, chanted sutras every morning and evening, and rarely went out. One day, the emperor summoned his son and didn't notice anything unusual until a gust of wind blew the tenth prince's hair a little askew. The emperor then realized that his son was wearing a wig...
After taking the wig, I saw that the Tenth Prince's head was completely bald, without a single hair...
"Who did it!" the emperor roared.
The tenth prince knelt on the ground and said calmly, "Father, please calm down. I shaved my head myself."
The hair and body are given by one's parents, so the guards dare not shave the prince's head. The tenth prince can only do it himself.
"Ah!" The emperor almost went crazy.
And the Sixth Prince, who loves to dress up as a woman...
The eighth prince felt that the orthodox cultivation was too slow, so he wanted to switch to practicing magic. He fell into the devil's way, and the emperor sent people to watch him day and night, not allowing him to go down the evil path...
The emperor felt that sooner or later he would be angered to death by his sons.
"Come here, I want to go on a tour incognito!"
He had to visit his sons in person before he could feel at ease.
What the emperor didn't expect was that most of his sons were very well-behaved, except for the nineteenth prince, Prince Jing, who had problems.
