But on the other side of Zinan Bridge, two young women also climbed onto the bridge. The woman in front was wearing a rose-red cloud-gauze Taoist robe, a lotus crown on her head, and a jade belt around her waist. She was tall, with a cold face, an elegant temperament, and a heroic demeanor.
The girl behind this woman was wearing a sable snow-white robe and holding a string of candied haws in her hand.
When they stepped onto Zinan Bridge, the red-dressed woman in front of them immediately noticed Daoist Master Yi Yuan walking with a lantern on the right bank of the river. She immediately turned around and said to the girl eating candied haws behind her, "Xian'er, be careful. The people from the Dao Court are over there."
The girl named Xian'er glanced at Daoist Master Yi Yuan and whispered, "Daoist Master Yi Yuan, but your Highness... Madam, you have changed your appearance. They probably won't recognize you."
The woman in red said calmly, "It's better to be careful. Even if you change your appearance, you'll still be recognized if you reveal your aura."
Xian'er nodded obediently, then she said, "Madam, since the two leaders of Zhuang and Qiao don't agree to cooperate with us, then we should go back as soon as possible. It's too dangerous outside."
The woman in red said, "I will go meet the two leaders again tomorrow. If we really can't reach an agreement, I will have to go back."
"Yeah." Xian'er nodded and continued eating the candied haws.
At this time, the woman in red said, "Let's go over to the bridge and see if there are any specialties from Hanhaizhou and buy some to take back."
"Okay." Xian'er said immediately with anticipation.
Then the woman in red turned around and walked forward, but just as she took a step, she accidentally bumped into the arm of a person coming from the opposite side. With a "ouch" sound, the lantern and jade ruyi in the person's hands fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the woman in red quickly said, "Sorry." Then she bent down to pick up the lantern and the other Ruyi that had fallen to the ground.
Then she heard a clear male voice say, "Nothing, nothing." Then she heard the man mutter, "How could it fall?"
The woman in red picked up the lantern first, and then she saw the man had picked up the Ruyi from the other side. But when the woman in red's eyes fell on the Ruyi, her body trembled, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she immediately stood up straight holding the lantern and looked at the man in front of her.
The man in front of her had an extremely ordinary face, but his eyes were deep and vast, and she was very familiar with them, especially the cold aura of the man and the 'Divine Blue Jade Ruyi' in his hand. All of this proved that the man in front of her was the one she had been thinking about day and night for the past few days.
Fang Jian smiled slightly, gently wiped the divine green jade ruyi with the sleeve of his robe, then reached out to take the lantern from the woman's hand and said with a smile: "Madam, there are many pedestrians on the bridge, please be careful."
The woman in red suddenly chuckled, and this smile was like snow melting in the cold weather, flowers blooming in the spring, and all things flourishing. Even Xian'er, who was standing beside her, was stunned and forgot to chew the candied haws in her mouth. Suddenly she shuddered and then became very excited. She had never seen the prince laugh like this before.
Fang Jian was stunned by the woman's smile, and a sense of familiarity welled up in his heart. His hand was already on the jade handle of the lantern, as if they were both holding the lantern together. The dim light from the lantern reflected on their faces. Fang Jian asked with some doubt, "Lady, have we met before?"
The red-dressed woman's phoenix eyes flickered slightly. She looked gentle as she stared at Fang Jian quietly. Without saying a word, she raised her jade hand and gently pointed at the divine blue jade ruyi on Fang Jian's upper left.
Fang Jian saw her movements suddenly pause, and the smile on his face froze. He immediately said to the editor, "Xiaohong, help me take a look at this person."
The editor replied, "She used a magical technique that allowed her to change her appearance. Do you want to break her magic?"
"No." Fang Jian said, "Just let me see her face clearly."
"Okay." As the editor finished speaking, a mysterious light flashed in Fang Jian's eyes. Then he saw through the woman's transformation technique and saw her original appearance directly.
I saw her with a pure aura rising to the sky, graceful and elegant, with a lingering aura of spirit, and a fragrance that followed the clear sunshine. She was unparalleled in her elegance and beauty, and she was absolutely the 'Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady'.
Fang Jian was extremely surprised. He never expected that he would meet the Queen Mother of the West in this Hanhai Province. At this moment, he was extremely excited. He moved his hand holding the jade handle of the lantern slightly and directly held the jade hand of the Queen Mother of the West.
Xian'er, who was standing by, saw this scene and her eyes widened and her mouth opened wide. The relatively intact candied haws in her mouth rolled out and fell to the ground without her noticing.
"In Xuanyang Palace, the majestic emperor, I know who you are." Fang Jian said with a smile, then pulled the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman in front of him, the two of them pressed their bodies tightly together, their eyes meeting.
At this moment, the lanterns were shining, the cold wind blew up the sleeves, and heavy snow suddenly fell from the sky. The lights were dim in the wind and snow, and the bright red sleeves of the Queen Mother of the West danced lightly in the wind. Her eyes met Fang Jian's, and they could no longer be apart.
After more than two thousand years, the two finally met again on the Zinan Bridge in Hanhaizhou.
