Chapter 622: Reborn Girl vs. Book-Traveling Girl 43
Zheng Yunxi is a cultivator and has been traveling for so long, so it is normal for her to have elixirs that can help Zheng Xingyao and the old marquis.
The emperor could not help but pay attention to the monks coming to Beijing.
He knew clearly that Zheng Yunxi did not leave anything to the Marquis' Mansion after returning home, but instead brought it to him, the emperor. He understood that this was Zheng Yunxi's attitude towards him, but it made the emperor very satisfied.
Zheng Yunxi's meaning was very clear: as long as the monarch did not allow it, she would not interfere in the affairs decided by the emperor even if she had the ability.
The emperor cannot continue to be stubborn and not allow Zheng Yunxi to take care of his family. No matter how high or low the cultivation level of a cultivator is, they all believe in cause and effect.
If Zheng Yunxi became estranged from the court due to karma, it would be a waste of time to push away a cultivator who had a good relationship with the court, which would be a loss.
The emperor naturally wants to maximize his interests.
At this moment, a loud voice of "Emperor's brother" came from outside the hall.
No need to guess, you can tell it's Prince Rong's voice.
When the emperor heard this voice, he couldn't help but hold his forehead, and after so many years, Zheng Yunxi had long forgotten the shadow that Prince Rong had left on her.
Prince Rong shouted as he strode into the hall. "Royal brother, I heard someone discovered the Moon Heart Grass in the south. If you send someone there, please take me with you.
I have followed the ancestors for so long. Although I do not have the qualifications to practice, I am experienced and know many of the tricks.
With me, you will achieve twice the result with half the effort, and success will come immediately."
As he spoke, Prince Rong walked into the hall and saw Zheng Yunxi sitting with the emperor.
The emperor frowned and scolded, "What a noise! You are so old, and yet you are still so unstable."
Prince Rong did not respond to the emperor's words. He looked at Zheng Yunxi and felt that he looked familiar.
After all, so many years have passed, Zheng Yunxi has grown into a graceful young lady, and is quite different from when she was a child.
After looking at her twice more, Prince Rong finally recognized her as the "Ghost Sister" from that year.
In an instant, Prince Rong forgot about following the team to find the Moon Heart Grass.
"You must be Miss Zheng San, right? I didn't expect you've grown so much after not seeing you for so many years.
I heard that you became a cultivator and traveled for a long time. Can you tell me about your experiences during your travels?
In exchange, I will share with you the experience I learned from my ancestors.
Next time you go traveling, take me with you. I will definitely be of great help."
The emperor couldn't help but hold his forehead again. Ever since his younger brother heard from the ancestor that practitioners went out to seek opportunities, he has been thinking about running away all day long.
Fortunately, he still had some self-awareness and knew that he had no qualifications for cultivation. If he mixed in with the cultivators looking for resources, he would easily become cannon fodder.
Therefore, every time the emperor sent practitioners out on business, he was very cautious, for fear that Prince Rong would get involved.
Prince Rong actually followed him secretly twice.
After the cultivators discovered him, they couldn't just leave him aside. After all, even if they were all young cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, it wouldn't be difficult for them to accidentally take King Rong's life. So they had to take him with them.
This really opened Prince Rong's eyes. Watching the monks fighting was as novel to him as watching magic movies for modern people.
Nowadays, the emperor's practitioners have to use secret codes and walk stealthily when they go out.
But Prince Rong always finds a way to find out news. If you don't take him with you, he will follow you secretly.
There was no other way, the emperor had to restrict Prince Rong’s travel.
This time, Prince Rong learned that Moon Heart Grass had appeared in the south, and he knew that the emperor would definitely send someone there, so he hurried over to persuade the emperor.
The emperor didn't wait for Zheng Yunxi to respond and said, "You're here to cause trouble again. How can a fight between cultivators be a joke? If you're not careful, innocent people will be hurt.
You must stay in Beijing and not go anywhere.
Have you finished reading the ancient books and biographies I gave you last time? If you have, I will have someone send you a few more."
Prince Rong kept clamoring to run away, and the emperor had no choice but to show him travel notes left over from ancient times, just to satisfy his visual curiosity.
But the emperor didn't expect that this would make Prince Rong yearn for the outside world even more.
Prince Rong ignored the emperor and talked to Zheng Yunxi on his own.
"Miss Third, don't worry about my brother. Tell me what you've seen and heard during your travels. I'm tired of hearing about the old ancestor's affairs. It's the same old stories over and over again."
Did you encounter any secret realms during your trip? In ancient times, there were contracted beasts. Have you seen any remnants of divine beasts?..."
Prince Rong talked a lot and asked all kinds of questions.
Zheng Yunxi was given a headache by the question. She looked at the emperor with a look of despair, and the emperor gave her a helpless look in return.
In desperation, Zheng Yunxi could only perfunctorily say a few words to Prince Rong, and then hurriedly left the palace on the pretext of having something to do at home.
That back figure looked like someone was fleeing in panic.
Prince Rong kept shouting from behind: "Alas, alas... why are you so anxious? I'll ask someone to help you with something."
Watching Zheng Yunxi's retreating figure, Prince Rong had no choice but to stop and muttered quietly, "It seems like she really has something urgent to do. Then I can only wait until she finishes her work and then go to the Marquis Xuanping's mansion to find her."
The emperor listened to Prince Rong's muttering and couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for Zheng Yunxi.
Being targeted by Prince Rong, Zheng Yunxi is afraid that he will not be able to get rid of it for a while. He will stick to people like a dog-skin plaster.
After Zheng Yunxi left, Prince Rong immediately turned his attention to the emperor and began to insist on following him to get the Yuexin Grass.
The emperor seemed to have long been accustomed to this kind of situation and only thought of it as a mosquito buzzing in his ear.
He approved memorials when he should and gave orders when he should, without being affected at all.
Prince Rong followed the emperor around, chattering over and over again. Wherever the emperor went, he followed him, just like a ghost.
Zheng Yunxi returned to the Marquis' Mansion and went to the old Marquis first, took out a magical medicine and handed it to him.
"This is a gift from His Majesty. Please use it first. Your health depends mainly on care. If you are always worried and depressed, even miracle medicine will be difficult to work. If I come across good medicine while traveling, I will definitely bring it back."
The old marquis was very happy and said yes repeatedly, saying that he would be more relaxed in the future.
Then, Zheng Yunxi came to the Marquis's courtyard.
She winked, signaling the marquis's wife to send the servant away.
The Marquis's wife was excited in her heart, but she waved her hand calmly on the surface.
After the servants had left, the Marquis' wife could no longer contain her excitement and called out with a slightly trembling voice, "Third girl..."
Zheng Yunxi took out a magical medicine from the storage bag and gently placed it on the table.
"His Majesty has allowed me to help my father and second sister. He said that bygones be bygones, but there won't be a next chance.
However, I'm afraid my second sister's identity cannot be restored. You should be aware of this."
The Marquis's wife nodded hurriedly, her eyes full of gratitude.
"I know, I understand everything. I've asked a monk to check on your second sister before. Even if there were a magical medicine, it would only alleviate her pain and prevent her from being bedridden all day."
