Murong Jin hasn't been feeling well these past two days, and she just can't seem to muster any appetite for anything.
Yi Liu naturally noticed this and said, "Master, how about we eat something light?"
Murong Jin shook her head, "No need."
The investigation is still ongoing, so she dares not slack off.
Jin Wanyue noticed several suspicious people, so she ordered her men to follow them while she secretly released insects the size of ants...
"Your Highness, should we continue?"
Jin Wanyue: "No need, I'll just go home and wait for news."
"Will we be discovered?"
Jin Wanyue shook her head, "No." She hadn't used her identity as Jin Wanyue to trade with the people of the Western Regions before, so the person as Jin Wanyue was long gone in the natural disaster in Jinling Kingdom…
...
"Your Highness, your dear auntie is back!!"
As soon as they reached the door, they saw a bald monk talking to Murong Jin.
Murong Jin and the abbot looked over at the same time and saw Jin Wanyue dressed in a men's floral dress.
Murong Jin has been having a bit of a headache lately. She was finally free from Di Junlan's nagging, but now Di Junlan's aunt has come to nag her too...
"Oh? Old monk, what are you doing here?"
The abbot was speechless. He looked at Murong Jin, then at the woman.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
"Your Highness, someone came to Zhenguo Temple last night, and their purpose is to obtain the Evil Eye."
After recounting yesterday's conversation to Murong Jin, he asked, "What does the Abbot think?"
The abbot said, "I am getting old, and besides, I trust the Regent to do things."
Murong Jin: "Mm."
The abbot glanced at Murong Jin one last time, "Your Highness, proceed with caution and remember that your own safety is paramount."
Although he wasn't particularly skilled at divination, he had glimpsed some of the Regent's future and had a vague feeling that the Regent might be in mortal danger this time...
Murong Jin looked at him and said, "Okay."
After the abbot left, Jin Wanyue came to Murong Jin's side and asked, "Who is that old bald monk?"
"The abbot of Zhenguo Temple."
Jin Wanyue immediately covered her mouth, she couldn't say anything carelessly, otherwise what if people targeted her in the future?
"By the way, Jinjin, next we need to strengthen the city's security. I've already made the arrangements, so we'll just wait for news."
"So, Auntie, could you please come with me to the palace to see how my eldest nephew is doing?"
Murong Jin: "...Madam, you've been letting yourself go more and more lately."
"Anyway, you won't hurt me, right?"
Murong Jin choked: "..."
That's really true.
Jin Wanyue perfectly embodies the phrase "arrogance born of favor"...
This was the first time Yi Liu had ever seen his master so helpless towards someone.
Oh no, this is the second time... The last person was His Majesty.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty's aunt is... quite adorable.
"I'll leave things to them first, and then I'll accompany you to the palace the day after tomorrow, how about that?"
Jin Wanyue wanted to hug the cute boy in front of her right away. "If it weren't for the fact that you people of Dacheng are so particular about men and women not touching each other, I would have kissed you right away."
Murong Jin's lips twitched: "..."
"What exactly do you think of my nephew?"
Murong Jin looked at the expectant person, turned his wheelchair around, and left her with his back to him. "Then let's see how your eldest nephew treats me."
Upon hearing this, Jin Wanyue thought, "There's hope!"
As long as my nephew keeps pestering the Regent, we'll definitely be able to win him over!
"Brother!! I've made a clear broth hot pot, come and eat!!"
Upon hearing the voice, Jin Wanyue looked over and saw the girl she had met that day, whose name was Ling Qiao'er.
"You don't have any romantic feelings for her, do you?"
Murong Jin: "..." The questions are getting more and more outrageous.
She didn't answer Jin Wanyue, who kept chattering beside her.
Ling Qiao'er looked at the aunt and said, "Auntie, please sit down."
Jin Wanyue hummed in agreement, and then heard the woman call out to Murong Jin, "By the way, brother, after we finish eating, feel free to ask me anything you want."
Murong Jin: "Okay."
Jin Wanyue ate the clear broth hot pot, "This tastes really good."
Ling Qiao'er: "Thank you for the compliment."
After the meal, Jin Wanyue acted furtively, and Yi Liu grabbed her and lifted her up, saying, "Madam, you should rest now."
"I don't want to sleep yet..."
Yi Liu: "This is the master's private matter."
Jin Wanyue: "..." Fine, if you don't want me to listen, then I won't listen.
...
"Honestly, bro, I've never seen any of these things happening in books."
Murong Jin tapped the wheelchair. "It might be the butterfly effect. Because of my awakening, many things have changed."
So, regardless of the circumstances, she deserves to die so that time can return to normal?
Ling Qiao'er: "But it's not really true. After all, Jinling Kingdom and the Western Regions had a cooperative relationship before. Now, because of the Evil Eye, the Western Regions want to come and snatch the only Evil Eye. That's normal."
"We might have triggered a hidden plot. After all, what's written in the book is just a brief overview; what actually happens is something only we, the people involved, know."
"Brother, don't overthink it."
Murong Jin looked at the person who was comforting her with a worried expression, reached out and touched her head, "I know that. My life is not so easy to take away."
However, since Emperor Junlan is the main male protagonist, the regent should not exist.
She had planned to leave early, and she needed to put it into action as soon as possible.
We had agreed to go to the palace the day after tomorrow, but Jin Wanyue wouldn't let her go.
"I can't go, my bugs are back."
Murong Jin: "..."
Then they watched as the black, rice-grain-sized worm circled around, while Jin Wanyue spoke beside them.
"The city center, the Heyue Medical Clinic, right?"
Yi Liu shook his head beside him, "Never heard of it, it must be a small clinic? We'll arrange to go and take a look."
Murong Jin nodded, and Yi Liu went to investigate the matter.
Jin Wanyue looked at Murong Jin, "The little guy said he heard someone say that he came for the Evil Eye."
Instead of answering, Murong Jin asked, "Does Madam also want the Evil Eye?"
Jin Wanyue shook her head, "That thing absorbs the dark side of people's hearts. I initially thought it could save my sister, so I tried to snatch it. But now my sister's condition has improved. Even the Gu worms can't cure it, but medical skills can. I don't want it anymore. Besides, I'm afraid that when my sister wakes up, she will be affected by the evil eye and become a different person..."
Murong Jin hummed in agreement and turned to leave.
The Evil Eye is in her hands.
Moreover, there has never been a situation that has caused her mental distress.
Upon returning to the house, Murong Jin's expression suddenly changed after smelling the sandalwood scent.
He quickly draped the living bag over his wrist, then froze in shock.
Two pulses?
