A spiritual vein!
Cultivation requires methods, resources, companions, and a suitable environment; this environment is the place for cultivation. And the requirements for spiritual energy in a place of cultivation between heaven and earth are extremely high.
A spiritual vein is definitely a treasure trove for cultivation.
Congratulations, Madam!
Granny Rui looked at Rong Xi with a hint of fanaticism. This time, she had truly won her gamble!
The room is situated on a spiritual vein node; such good fortune is rare. Every spiritual vein node in the capital city has been identified by the Imperial Observatory.
The existence of a spiritual vein beneath the Fourth Prince's residence is not surprising, as a prince's residence is always meant to be extraordinary. However, when the Fourth Prince's residence began construction, Rong Xi had not yet arrived, and the Fourth Prince's Consort was still the original Ulanara clan member. At that time, Ulanara was just an ordinary person.
For an ordinary person's room to be located at a spiritual vein node, what an extraordinary blessing!
Congratulations to you! Congratulations to you!
Rong Xi didn't think as much as Granny Rui did; at this moment, she was only filled with joy.
The spiritual vein nodes are rich in spiritual energy, making cultivation here just as effective as using spirit stones. For Rong Xi, nothing could be more delightful.
She could save spirit stones and enhance the spiritual energy of the semi-abandoned cultivation cave, restoring some of its functions.
Today is a good day!
Thinking of the two thousand high-grade spirit stones she had obtained before, Rong Xi felt that today was truly a day worth celebrating.
Yes, she's also incredibly lucky.
...
After touring the room, Rong Xi was preparing to take a flying chariot to see the entire Fourth Prince's mansion from the air when Granny Xiang arrived with an old physician from the Immortal Physician Bureau.
The old imperial physician, Shen Sanwen, came from the "Medicine King" school, whose founder was said to be Sun Simiao, the "Medicine King" of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the truth of this is impossible to verify. But the medical skills of the "Medicine King" school were indeed very impressive.
"Your humble servant pays respects to the Fourth Princess Consort!"
Shen Sanwen's appearance was very distinctive, resembling the Venus de Milo from later TV dramas. Rong Xi almost burst out laughing when she first saw him.
"No need for formalities, Physician Shen. Thank you for your help this time!"
"It is my duty!"
Shen Sanwen's face was kind and gentle. He placed his left hand on Jiang Zi's pulse point, while his right hand stroked his long beard in a serious manner, his expression slightly solemn and dignified.
Congratulations, Madam!
When Shen Sanwen stopped and looked at Rong Xi, his first words made Rong Xi pause in surprise.
Jiang Zi has become dull and foolish, what's there to congratulate her on?
Could it be that this old man is just a pretty face? All show and no substance?
"Your Highness need not worry. This young girl has unexpectedly awakened the Stone Spirit Body for some reason. Right now, she is only in a transformation phase. Once the transformation is complete, she will return to normal!"
"This Stone Spirit Body is a mutation of the Five Elements Earth Spirit Body. Once you cultivate it, your future will be limitless!"
"I see!"
Rong Xi breathed a sigh of relief, pondered for a moment, and said, "Elder Physician Shen, how can we speed up Jiang Zi's transformation? Also, will this transformation have any negative impact on her?"
"This, Your Majesty, is not entirely sure either. The Stone Spirit Body is extremely rare. All spirit bodies that have undergone mutations in the Five Elements are very uncommon. My sect has only recorded a little bit about it, or perhaps the Imperial Library might have some records!"
"Furthermore, before this young lady completes her transformation, her identity as a Stone Spirit Body must not be revealed. Otherwise, some demonic cultivators might use a method of stealing the spirit and plundering her Stone Spirit Root!"
"Thank you for your advice, old physician. I will keep reminding you!"
Rong Xi smiled and thanked her, then had Granny Xiang see Shen Sanwen off, naturally offering a small fee for his consultation. And Rong Xi was very generous!
A top-grade spirit stone!
Such a generous consultation fee naturally included hush money.
Shen Sanwen readily accepted the high-grade spirit stone; he had no choice but to. After all, he needed to prove to Rong Xi that he wouldn't speak recklessly.
...
"Granny Rui, please go and bring Madam Zeng and her son here. If there are any other people in her household, bring them back as well!"
"This servant obeys!"
Without any hesitation, Granny Rui set out immediately.
When Shen Sanwen revealed that demonic cultivators could plunder stone spirit roots, Rong Xi thought of Dengzhi and Cuirui's accusations. If Zeng's son colluded with demonic cultivators, then Zeng's claim that she had taken a liking to Jiang Zi and wanted Jiang Zi to be her daughter-in-law was something worth pondering.
Sometimes, you have no choice but to think of people as more wicked. Otherwise, you might regret it later.
Granny Rui returned quickly, bringing back four people bound with a rope, as well as three cultivators who had been sealed and knocked unconscious by Granny Rui.
"Reporting to Madam, Zeng's son, Zeng Wang, hasn't become an idiot; he's fallen into demonic ways. When I arrived, they were discussing how to kidnap Jiang Zi and escape. These people definitely know about Jiang Zi's transformation from an earth spirit to a stone spirit!"
No sooner had Granny Rui finished speaking than Madam Zeng shouted.
"My lady, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time!"
“Awang was coerced!”
"My Ladyship—"
Zeng wept bitterly.
Rong Xi slowly closed her eyes. How to deal with Zeng Shi was a complex feeling for her. This woman was Ulanara's wet nurse, even though it was a paid job. But the bond between them couldn't be erased. However, Rong Xi wasn't Ulanara herself; even though she inherited Ulanara's emotions and memories, she still possessed her own thoughts.
Rong Xi could not tolerate Zeng's actions.
"Report to the Imperial Household Department, according to regulations..."
"ah!"
Before Rong Xi could finish speaking, Zeng Shi let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.
"Those who betray their master shall be executed!"
Granny Xiang appeared at the door and said respectfully, "This servant acted without authorization, and I beg Your Highness to punish me!"
Rong Xi shuddered as she stared at Zeng Shi's corpse.
She clearly didn't intend to let Zeng Shi off the hook, but after she spoke, she planned to hand over Zeng Mama's family to the Imperial Household Department for punishment. This was obviously not right.
After Shen Sanwen reminded her not to let the news of the Crimson Purple Stone Spirit Body leak out, she would not send Zeng Shi to the Imperial Household Department even for the sake of secrecy.
Ulanara clan!
In the blink of an eye, Rong Xi had a profound realization.
She always thought that after that day, the Ulanara clan had completely disappeared.
But as it turns out, Ulanara did not completely disappear; she still exists, and some remnants of her consciousness remain.
"Granny Xiang, I'll leave this matter to you!"
Rong Xi looked at Granny Xiang and spoke softly.
She must find a way to resolve the issue of Ulanara's residual consciousness; otherwise, it's a ticking time bomb!
Rong Xi dismissed everyone and sat cross-legged alone, her mind focused. She had to completely resolve the historical issues left over from the Ulanara clan and eliminate any hidden dangers.
But how do we get started?
