Chapter 222: Zhen Huan's Daughter Longyue Grows Up
Chapter 222: Zhen Huan's Daughter Longyue Grows Up
Since Master Zi won’t introduce me, I’ll just get to know him myself.
Cao Rui has always been very active when it comes to dealing with beautiful women. He immediately stretched out his leaves, wrapped them around Qin Keqing's calves, and motioned her to go out for a detailed discussion.
Qin Keqing understood and found an excuse to go to a nearby room.
Cao Rui followed closely, emerged from underground, and asked:
"Whose prince is cousin Longyue's daughter?"
"Cousin? She is the daughter of the Grand Empress Dowager Zhen Huan, not my cousin. We have never met before. She came here for no apparent reason today, and I don't know what her purpose is."
Qin Keqing asked worriedly:
"Do you think she will find out that you are a potential dragon, the future emperor, and therefore want to eliminate the hidden dangers in advance?"
Cao Rui was very sure that he did not have the destiny of a potential dragon, and he didn't know why Qin Keqing thought so?
Even if there really is a hidden dragon, it should be the bandit’s wife Chen Shuozhen.
However, Cao Rui was a little surprised by Longyue's identity, as she was the daughter of Zhen Huan. He immediately thought of the sequel of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", which introduced the story of Longyue.
She married into the Junggar tribe, but encountered civil strife, her husband was killed, and she was forced to marry his murderer.
Not long after, her second husband was defeated and controlled by the Qing court, and she was finally able to return to Zhen Huan after marrying far away for twenty years.
It's a bad fate!
Even if she is not a beauty, she is still a beauty with icy skin and graceful figure. How can I bear to see her wither away?
Cao Rui quickly came up with an idea. He said a few words to Qin Keqing and then went underground to look for Wang Xifeng.
I saw Wang Xifeng sobbing silently in the room, looking very sad.
I didn't expect that such a fierce woman has such a sentimental side. It was worth it to be husband and wife in my dream.
"Don't cry, our fate has returned, and I will give you wealth and honor."
Cao Rui crawled out from the ground and gently patted her shoulder with a leaf.
Wang Xifeng turned her head and her eyes widened in surprise. She couldn't believe that her husband came back so soon.
Before she could finish feeling sad, she was filled with joy. She hugged her bamboo husband tightly, with complex emotions surging in her heart, including surprise, shame, and feeling sorry for Jia Lian.
After a long time.
Wang Xifeng finally came to her senses and asked:
"Zhu Xian, are you really back? What do you mean by wealth and honor?"
"The Empress Dowager's daughter, Longyue, is visiting Qin Keqing. You just need to take me over and help her predict her fate, and you will naturally become rich."
"I will never forget the great kindness of Bamboo Fairy!"
Wang Xifeng was so moved that she wished it would be night soon so she could hug Wenzhu and fall asleep.
Unfortunately, the sun is very strong outside.
There is more work to do.
Wang Xifeng quickly put on her makeup, picked up Wenzhu, and rushed to Tianxiang Tower. Even if she was an uninvited guest, she had to seize the opportunity.
Just at this time.
A little maid came in and reported that Sister Ping'er was here.
Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment and asked someone to invite Ping'er in.
When the master and servant, who used to be as close as sisters, met again, the atmosphere became inexplicably awkward.
Fortunately, Ping'er was very sensible. She said that a distinguished guest had come to Tianxiang Tower, and my wife was afraid that she could not entertain him well, so she specially asked the second wife to come over to help.
Wang Xifeng nodded, hugged Wenzhu, and hurried to Tianxiang Tower.
On the way, she kept rehearsing the next scene in her mind, thinking about how to better showcase the magic of asparagus fern.
Soon she stepped into Tianxiang Tower and saw the daughter of Empress Dowager Zhen Huan, Longyue, who was truly invaluable.
Wang Xifeng instantly felt that she had seized an opportunity to change her fate. The fire in her heart burned even brighter. She thanked the Bamboo Fairy and her Bamboo husband. As expected, as long as you water the bamboo diligently, you will reap the rewards.
Fortunately, she knew that it was not a good deal to rush forward, so she was looking for an opportunity to ask Qin Keqing to help her intercede.
Unexpectedly, Longyue saw Wang Xifeng coming in with asparagus bamboo and smelled it curiously to find out what it was.
Wang Xifeng was delighted and was about to answer.
Then Qin Keqing said first:
"Longyue, this asparagus fern is not an ordinary plant, but a unique spiritual creature in the world that can predict the fate of everyone."
"really?"
Longyue was skeptical, but excited to see the prey, so she asked Wang Xifeng how she could get Wenzhu to help her with divination and fortune-telling.
Wang Xifeng was delighted: "It's very simple, just stand in front of the asparagus fern."
Longyue did as she was told and stood straight in front of Wenzhu, feeling nervous and expectant.
After a moment, a line of words appeared on the leaf:
[The shadow of the moon is like flowing water,
The dream is hard to dispel under the lonely lamp.
Wisdom, talent,
A widow who marries far away worries. 】
"impossible!"
Longyue's eyes widened. She didn't expect that bamboo could actually tell fortunes.
However, as the most beloved daughter of the Empress Dowager, she could not believe that not only would she have to marry thousands of miles away to marry a foreign prince, but her husband would also die, leaving her with the misery of being a widow.
Qin Keqing hurried forward and hugged Longyue to comfort her.
Wang Xifeng was confused. What was going on?
All the women around him have suffered a tragic fate, even the royal nobles are no exception. Will they be dragged out and beheaded to vent their anger?
Fortunately, Longyue had no intention of taking her anger out on others. She read the words on the leaves carefully and over and over again, and tears were almost coming out.
She took out a jade pendant and shouted:
"Master, please come out and tell me if this ghost bamboo is talking nonsense, right?"
As Wang Xifeng stared in shock, a female fairy floated out from the jade pendant. She had a graceful figure and light movements. She landed in front of Qin Keqing and was about to pay her respects:
"Ye Lan Yi Bai——"
Qin Keqing interrupted quickly, she didn't want to reveal her identity.
Ye Lanyi understood and turned to look at Wenzhu. She was quite curious. She was worthy of being the sister of Fairy Jinghuan. She could actually find a magical object that could predict fate.
"master!"
Longyue grabbed Ye Lanyi's arm and called out pitifully:
"My fate won't be that tragic, right?"
"..."
Insight into fate and predicting the future, such a powerful ability is beyond the control of Ye Lanyi who has just started practicing.
She hesitated for a moment and asked Qin Keqing to go to the private room for further discussion.
Qin Keqing readily agreed, and when she came to the compartment, she asked:
"Fairy Lan Yi, why don't you stay in the Grand Illusionary Realm? What are you doing here?"
"The fairy lady has a mission for me, so I can't reveal it for now."
Ye Lanyi lied.
It turned out that after she sneaked down from the illusory world that day, she wanted to stop Nian Shilan from hurting Zhen Huan.
Unexpectedly, Zhen Huan easily captured Nian Shilan.
Ye Lanyi felt relieved and wanted to return to Taixu Illusionary Realm to apologize.
However, Zhen Huan asked her to accept her daughters Longyue and Lingxi as disciples and teach them the art of cultivation.
When the Qing dynasty falls, I can hide in the mountains to practice and save my life.
Ye Lan Yi agreed out of pity, preferring Prince Guo, the man she once admired, and Lingxi, Zhen Huan's illegitimate daughter.
But she also took good care of Longyue, the daughter of Zhen Huan and Yongzheng, and specially asked Longyue to make friends with Qin Keqing, the sister of Fairy Jinghuan.
Unexpectedly, I came across the strange creature Asparagus fern that can predict other people's fate.
Ye Lanyi was amazed and asked earnestly:
"Auntie, is Wenzhu's prediction accurate? Is there any way to change Longyue's fate?"
Qin Keqing said she had nothing to say, because Cao Rui did not explain. She could only guess whether Cao Rui wanted to become a royal consort, seize power within the Qing court, and finally usurp the world?
Unfortunately, this road has been strictly guarded since previous dynasties, and there is a high probability that it will be blocked!
Ye Lanyi had no choice but to make up lies to fool Longyue, saying things like man can conquer nature.
Fortunately, when she learned that Wenzhu belonged to Wang Xifeng, she immediately suggested:
"Second Madam Lian, why not present the asparagus bamboo to the Empress Dowager, and you will be rewarded."
