In her past life, she missed out on the Crown Prince. Now that she has a second chance, she is determined to seize this opportunity to marry him.
She imagined that person standing atop the high nine-tiered palace, looking down upon all living beings, and that person's cold yet handsome face was deeply etched in her heart.
If it were before, she could only admire the Crown Prince but had no chance to get close to him, but now that she has been reborn, she is determined to have him!
Bai Zhiyi suppressed the madness in her eyes and asked the maid beside her, "Is Miss Zhao from the General's Mansion among those coming the day after tomorrow?"
"Replying to Miss, Miss Zhao has already replied saying she will come," the maidservant replied respectfully.
It's good that they're coming. If they come, she'll have a chance to find out the Crown Prince's whereabouts from Zhao Xiyue.
The maid whispered, "Miss, our people sent word from Suiyang County that someone else is also trying to find out about the Goddess?"
Since someone witnessed a strange phenomenon in the sky half a month ago, people have been searching for the whereabouts of the goddess in Suiyang County.
The maid glanced at her and added, "Fortunately, they all now recognize Miss as that goddess."
Bai Zhiyi didn't feel uncomfortable about taking the title of goddess; she only knew that she had to seize this opportunity to gain some leverage for herself.
One most beautiful woman in the capital is not enough!
She wanted to become the wife of that high and mighty man!
She wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with that person atop the Nine Heavens Palace, overlooking all living beings!
She wants to be that person's only one!
She became excited as she thought about the future.
As for the wife the crown prince married when he was down on his luck, she would find a way to get rid of her!
She didn't think the Crown Prince would like an ugly woman.
Since ancient times, men have been known for their romantic nature. With such a beautiful woman before her, she didn't believe that the Crown Prince would ever look at that ugly woman again after seeing her.
But that ugly woman was always an eyesore.
She ordered grimly, "Continue to create momentum in Suiyang County, and find the woman who married His Highness and kill her as well."
The servant bowed his head and left, obeying the order.
Since Miss fell into the water last month, her personality has changed; she is no longer the gentle young lady she once was.
————
At this time, Suiyang County had attracted people from all sides because of the strange celestial phenomenon that had occurred earlier.
Chu Yi was lounging on a chaise lounge, eating grapes with one hand while listening to a servant's report.
After three months of living like a beggar, Chu Yi could finally lie here and enjoy himself. He was so lazy that he didn't want to move at all.
The key issue is that he hasn't found the woman's children after three months.
"Master, we've been wandering around here for half a month now, and we haven't heard a word about that person. Could it be that the Imperial Advisor miscalculated? And what about the recent rumors about the Goddess? Are they true or false?"
The key point is that the goddess also has pills that are exactly the same as those from the family of divine healers.
They had the privilege of seeing it, but felt it was still inferior to the medicines made by families of renowned physicians.
“Have someone buy those medicines from the people who have seen the goddess,” he sneered. “Only those people would believe that the goddess is Bai Zhiyi.”
He didn't believe in the goddess story at all; it was just a way to fool those ignorant people.
Furthermore, Bai Zhiyi was merely a beautiful woman in name only.
Thinking of the beautiful woman, he recalled the little girl he had met in Linyuan Village, whose bright, intelligent eyes sparkled with wit in every smile and frown.
He couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Unexpectedly, the deposed crown prince married an interesting woman.
The servant asked, "Master, are you planning to stay here any longer?"
They have been here for half a month, and there is still no trace of the woman.
However, we obtained another clue: medicine that only a family of renowned physicians could produce had appeared here.
He couldn't think of anyone else but that person's daughter.
Chu Yi tossed the grapes into the porcelain plate, wiped his hands, and said, "Let's go meet that Bai Zhiyi."
Since the medicine came from her, she must have information about the family of divine healers.
Since that woman disappeared more than ten years ago, the Southern Chu royal family has never seen a descendant of the family of divine healers again.
If we can find the descendants of the family of divine healers, we will surely be able to lure out that mysterious and unpredictable member of the divine healer clan.
Only the Chu royal family knew the capabilities of this family of divine physicians.
"So, are we going to the Lin family in Youzhou next?" the servant asked.
Chu Yi stood up and walked straight there, leaving behind the words, "Let's go to the Lin residence and join in the fun."
——
In August, while it would still be sunny in the Central Plains, it's already chilly in the Northwest in the mornings.
Su Wan put on a simple, plain-colored dress with cyan as the base color. Her jet-black hair was tied up high. She took out a cyan silk ribbon from the apartment and wrapped it around her. As she moved, the light cyan silk ribbon fluttered in the wind. From a distance, she looked like a fairy descending from the sky, pure and otherworldly.
Zhao Xiyue stared blankly at Su Wan, not coming to her senses for a long time. She stared at the newcomer without blinking.
The person's features seemed familiar, yet she couldn't place them, and she didn't recall having such a beautiful woman, like a fairy, in their general's mansion.
Su Wan approached her, saw her in a daze, raised her hand and lightly tapped her forehead, and said with a smile, "What? You don't recognize me just because I changed clothes?"
In order to prevent people from recognizing her as a woman, she had taken voice-changing drugs to make her voice sound low and hoarse.
Now that her voice had returned to its usual clear and melodious tone, Zhao Xiyue looked at her incredulously, "You're Doctor Su?"
"Who else did you think it was?" He glanced at the red pimples on her face.
Fortunately, the red marks have faded considerably, leaving only faint traces. If we persist for another two days, those marks will gradually disappear as well.
Zhao Xiyue stared at Su Wan and exclaimed, "Wow! You're so beautiful! Are you a man or a woman?"
How come someone dressed as a woman looks even better than her, a woman herself?
That's infuriating.
Su Wan coughed lightly, "Just assume I'm a man with a woman's appearance."
If she weren't going to the Lin family with her, she wouldn't have bothered changing back into women's clothes; women's clothes are just too inconvenient to wear.
This dress was found for her by Wei Jingzhuo from who-knows-where.
It suited her perfectly.
Zhao Xiyue found it fascinating, especially the medicine that could change one's voice.
Then his gaze drifted to her chest.
Previously, Su Wan's clothes were loose and rough, which did not show off her slender figure at all.
The light blue dress now accentuated her slender waist, making it appear incredibly delicate.
And those impressive breasts... even she, a woman herself, couldn't help but swallow hard.
Su Wan noticed her gaze and tapped her head. "Where are you looking?"
Zhao Xiyue exclaimed, "So you're a woman!"
Her screams were so loud that even Wei Jingzhuo, who was passing by, heard them.
