Chapter 68 Rules



Gu Yanfei poured spiritual energy into his fingertips, then moved his fingers lightly and drew a few strokes on Gu Yunzhen's fair forehead. This simple action had an indescribable grace.

After absorbing the spiritual energy from the jade pendant, she became more adept at calling upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

With just a few strokes, he used his fingers as a pen to smoothly draw a symbol.

Gu Yunzhen closed his eyes subconsciously and vaguely felt his forehead warm and comfortable, as if an invisible air flow was washing his entire head from his forehead.

After a moment, Gu Yanfei moved his hand away.

There seemed to be an invisible airflow connecting Gu Yanfei's fingers and Gu Yunzhen's forehead. Gu Yanfei flicked his fingers and the airflow was cut off.

Gu Yanfei curled his lips in satisfaction.

The light red scar on Gu Yunzhen's forehead became extremely light, only slightly whiter than the surrounding skin. A closer look revealed that it was a world of difference from its previous slightly raised and reddish appearance.

Feicui was stunned. She stared at Gu Yunzhen's forehead and shouted in surprise: "Girl, the scar on your forehead has faded! It's really faded!"

She was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears and her face was full of joy.

Thinking back to the magical powers displayed by Shangqing Zhenren in Cihe Hall that day, it seemed to be no more than this.

It is said that people who are good at Taoism have the ability to bring the dead back to life. Could it be that the second young lady is also like this?

When Feicui looked at Yan Fei again, her expression was filled with not only gratitude, but also an expression as if she was about to kneel down.

Gu Yanfei guessed what Feicui was thinking and smiled without saying anything.

She had already seen the methods of "Taoist medicine" in this small world from Shangqing Zhenren. This was a Taoist method within the rules of heaven. Others could use it, and she could use it too, without it going against heaven and harming her lifespan.

Ever since she met the True Man Shangqing, she began to slowly explore the limits of the rules of heaven.

Gu Yunzhen subconsciously raised his hand to touch his forehead. Seeing this, Feicui quickly took a mercury mirror next to her and held it up to Gu Yunzhen.

This mercury mirror was invented by Emperor Taizu. Not only was his civil and military skills far superior to those of ordinary people, he was also an inventor who was good at ingenuity. He invented the mercury mirror, windmill, cannon, and so on.

The palm-sized mercury mirror was as bright and smooth as ice, reflecting Gu Yunzhen's face clearly.

Gu Yunzhen stared at himself in the mirror, still a bit unbelievable on his face...

A faint smile bloomed at the corner of her soft mouth, slowly spreading to the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and then to the bottom of her eyes, just like a peony flower suddenly blooming under the bright sunshine.

"Second sister, you are so awesome!" Gu Yunzhen praised sincerely.

Feicui nodded repeatedly and sighed, "Second Miss, the Taoist priest who taught you this method must be a god!"

Feicui was even more excited than Gu Yunzhen.

My eldest daughter has always been gentle, generous and considerate. After getting a scar on her forehead this time, she always said it was okay and that leaving some bangs would cover the scar. However, how could a girl not care about her appearance!

Thinking of his master, Gu Yanfei's smile was tinged with nostalgia, and he nodded and said, "That's it!"

"It was just a little trick for him."

Gu Yunzhen was also fascinated when she heard this and said, "This is also your chance, second sister."

Gu Yanfei curled his lips, looking pleased.

Feicui thought of Gu Yunzhen's wedding date, and said to her with a radiant look, "Miss, when the Third Madam sees that your face has healed, she will be very happy."

"Meow meow meow!" The kitten made an angry cry on Gu Yanfei's lap, dissatisfied with being ignored.

Just as she was about to hold the kitten, she heard the slightly embarrassed voice of a little maid coming from the main room outside the door curtain: "Second Miss, Miss Bailu from Cihe Hall is here."

Gu Yanfei gave a wink, and Juanbi lifted the curtain and went out. When she came back, Bai Lu, wearing a water green jacket, was behind her.

Bai Lu walked up to Gu Yanfei with a smile on her face, bowed politely, and said, "Second Miss, I am here to take the phoenix-patterned jade pendant on the orders of the Madam."

"Madam Tai asked me to remind the second young lady that only when the Gu family is well, the young lady will be well."

Bai Lu observed Gu Yanfei's expression and her fingers unconsciously clenched the handkerchief.

Gu Yanfei smiled slightly and nodded, "Madam is right."

She covered Qingguang's eyes to prevent it from disturbing her, and with her other free hand she picked up the phoenix-patterned jade pendant that had just been thrown aside. The tip of her index finger seemed to casually stroke the jade pendant.

Where her fingertips brushed past, a flash of white light appeared on the jade pendant, and then it passed by without anyone noticing.

Gu Yanfei's smile deepened and he handed the jade pendant to Bai Lu.

"Thank you, Second Miss." Bai Lu respectfully took the phoenix-patterned jade pendant with both hands and breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a big fight in the hall, and neither the King Kang nor the Lady of the Duke of England was willing to give in. Lady of the Duke of England did not dare to confront the King Kang, so she took her anger out on Lady Gu, threatening to have the Duke of England write a letter to impeach the Gu family.

Madam Gu did not want to have a bad relationship with the Duke of England's Mansion, so she appeased the Duke of England's wife with a few kind words and then quickly told Bai Lu to come to Gu Yanfei to get the phoenix-patterned jade pendant.

Bai Lulai was originally worried that Gu Yanfei would not be willing to hand over the jade pendant readily, but she did not expect things to go so smoothly.

"Then I will go back and report to the Madam." Bai Lu smiled with relief, knelt down and bowed, then left in a hurry.

Watching Bai Lu's back disappear behind the door curtain, Gu Yunzhen frowned and couldn't help but whispered, "Second sister, that jade pendant belongs to my aunt..."

She had only said half of her words when Gu Yanfei casually pushed Qingguang into her arms and released his hand that was covering the cat's eyes. Then, the pair of emerald green and transparent cat's eyes met Gu Yunzhen's.

Qingguang is so cute! Gu Yunzhen immediately surrendered to the cat's charm and was immersed in the magic of those blue eyes.

"Qingguang, play with big sister for a while." Gu Yanfei stood up with a smile and tapped the cat's forehead lightly, meaning that the cat should play with her well.

"Meow!" Qingguang called out proudly.

After a while, the sound of the rolling sepak ball could be heard again in the house.

Everyone's attention was focused on the cat, and no one noticed that Gu Yanfei walked out of the boudoir alone.

The ringing sound behind her gradually faded away, and when she walked out of Yuheng Garden, she could hear nothing.

Gu Yanfei went directly to the outer ceremonial gate.

The capital city was even colder in mid-November, with howling winds. However, Gu Yanfei did not feel the cold at all. She was only wearing a thin, plain dress, which fluttered in the cold wind.

After waiting for a while, I saw the Duchess of England walking towards this side gracefully, followed by seven or eight maids and old women, carrying heavy boxes.

The British Duchess, wearing a dark red cloak trimmed with mink, was still as dignified and elegant as ever. Her graceful face was tense and her eyes were filled with extremely complex emotions, including anger, irritability and panic.

The moment she saw Gu Yanfei, the Duchess of England's steps slowed down slightly, her beautifully shaped lips were pursed into a cold and hard line, and the anger that had been suppressed in her chest for a long time finally had an outlet at this moment, and she was ready to burst into flames.
