Chapter 209: There was a princess in the previous dynasty who went to cultivate immortality
Lin Xuxi: "I want to ask about the palace."
"You, are you planning to do something? That won't do!" Upon hearing this, Prince Zhao hesitated. This was far more difficult than he had imagined.
What happened in the palace? Is he going to assassinate someone?
"I don't want to do anything." Lin Xuxi smiled and shook her head. "It's not what you think. I just want to prove a rumor."
"What rumors?"
Lin Xuxi picked up an apple and fed it to Xuanyun, saying casually, "Haven't you heard of it? There was a princess in the previous dynasty. I haven't found out who she was, but she became an immortal. I want to know how to become an immortal!"
"You know about this? It's a very secret matter!" Prince Zhao said, turning his head and looking around.
Fortunately, it was early and no one was out yet.
"you know too?"
Lin Xuxi raised her eyebrows. It seemed that things were simpler than she had imagined.
If this person knew about it, then someone must be aware of the rumor, or even have it recorded. If so, it would be much easier for her to find it.
"But this matter is very secretive. If my mother wasn't the emperor's sister, I wouldn't know about it." Prince Zhao scratched his chin and thought.
"Of course I know. This is also the reason why I came here."
Just as the two were about to talk in detail, the waiter came over.
Lin Xuxi raised her hand, interrupting the person who was about to explain, and whispered, "Let's go upstairs and discuss it in detail. I just want to know how to obtain the records. The rest has nothing to do with me."
Prince Zhao nodded.
"Stay here. I'll come find you later." Lin Xuxi patted Xuanyun.
"Master Lin, you can't give me to him, you can't give me to him - I am your snake in life and your python in death!" Perhaps because he has been with Lin Xuxi for a long time, Xuanmang has become very eloquent.
Patting Xuanyun's head soothingly, Lin Xuxi said softly, "I won't."
Hearing this, the Black Python finally felt relieved. It was just a disguised horse, so how could it attract the covetousness of a mortal? This mortal was really strange.
Lin Xuxi led people upstairs.
"Benefactor!" Shen Yichen ran out. Seeing the real person so early, he was a little surprised and asked, "Where have you been? If you have anything, just tell me directly!"
When she went upstairs, she glanced at Shen Yichen but didn't answer. Lin Xuxi walked straight in.
Prince Zhao followed behind him. When he saw the young man, he didn't ask any questions. He followed the horse owner into the room and closed the door.
Shen Yichen was locked outside and couldn't get in.
"She, why is she like this!" Shen Yichen felt sour in his heart. How could she just bring a man into the room and not even care about him?
After entering, Lin Xuxi casually set up a ban to prevent Shen Yichen from knowing their conversation.
"Please sit down." Lin Xuxi asked people to sit down.
Prince Zhao nodded and sat down, instantly attracted by the tea in the cup. He picked up the cold teacup, sniffed it and exclaimed in surprise: "What kind of tea is this? It smells so good!" It was the best tea he had ever smelled.
"What kind of tea is this? It's better than what Your Majesty drinks." Prince Zhao felt more and more that the person in front of him was no ordinary person.
Lin Xuxi didn't answer, and said, "I want to know what happened just now."
"It's about the princess of the previous dynasty cultivating immortality, right?" Prince Zhao sighed and said, "Actually, this matter isn't a secret, but the late emperor intentionally suppressed the news, so as generations passed, not many people knew about it."
The first person to know about this was the late emperor.
When the previous emperor attacked the city, that foolish and cruel emperor kept saying that someone in their Ye family was cultivating immortality, and he knew that once she arrived, she would be able to save the crumbling empire!
However, that person never showed up. The late emperor initially thought it was fake, but he found something that proved someone from the Ye family of the previous dynasty had gone to cultivate immortality.
Moreover, the reason why the emperor of the previous dynasty did so was because he was obsessed with the art of cultivating immortality, and even used unborn fetuses as sacrifices, just to seek immortality.
The people were living in poverty, so they rebelled.
"So, there is actually a record?" Lin Xuxi pondered: No wonder.
"Yes, there are records." Prince Zhao nodded. "However, only the late emperor and Your Majesty know of such things. We have never seen them. However, Your Majesty has also entertained these thoughts of cultivating immortality. After gaining imperial power, he must have sought immortality, which is understandable. However, Your Majesty is still quite wise and is not obsessed with this. He only seeks divination from time to time."
"For example, that Imperial Preceptor, he's all talk and magic." Prince Zhao shook his head. But His Majesty was kind enough not to let that lousy Imperial Preceptor get involved in government affairs; he just consulted with divination and observed the stars.
Lin Xuxi was puzzled and asked, "So, the things recorded are only known to the emperor?"
"That should be it?" Prince Zhao nodded.
Shen Yichen had been eavesdropping outside, his ear pressed against the door, paying close attention to what was happening inside.
At this time the door was opened, scaring him!
"What are you doing?" Lin Xuxi asked coldly.
"I, I!" Shen Yichen was at a loss. He hid his hands behind his back and lowered his head, saying, "I'm just curious about what happened in there. I'm just curious."
Prince Zhao followed closely behind him and came out. He saw the young man but did not ask who he was.
"I'll take you there." Lin Xuxi didn't ask Shen Yichen and left with Prince Zhao.
Shen Yichen looked at the two people walking together, and was so angry that he didn't know what to say for a moment. In the end, he could only stamp his feet and sulk.
"You have to send it over in three days." Lin Xuxi handed over Xuanyun's reins.
Prince Zhao took the reins, his eyes full of dark clouds, and nodded, saying, "Can you give me another day? I want my father to ride too. He loves horses, too, and I want him to take my mother for a ride."
At this moment, he just wanted to ride Xuanyun at the horse farm on the outskirts of the city and have a good gallop with his father and mother.
"Yeah." Lin Xuxi patted Xuanyun's neck and said with a smile: "Come back in three days, you know where I am."
Lin Xuxi watched them leave. She was going to the palace again tonight. If she wanted to find out anything from the emperor, she would probably have to dream about it. She was beginning to feel a dilemma.
"Benefactor!" Shen Yichen's eyes were red as he squatted at the door and waited. When his benefactor came, he looked up at him eagerly, wanting to cry but not daring to.
So I could only hold back my tears, which made my eyes red and I felt so wronged.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Xuxi sighed. It was obvious that she had no way to deal with Shen Yichen.
"Who is that person? You had a very pleasant conversation with him, benefactor, right?" Shen Yichen began to cry in grievance, lowered his head and wiped his tears with his sleeves.
Lin Xuxi waved her hand to signal the other party to go away and not block the door, and said coldly: "It has nothing to do with you." She was a little impatient.
"I know I'm not as good-looking as him, nor as rich as him." Shen Yichen stood up with the help of the door frame, nodding with tears in his eyes, "I'm not worthy of my benefactor, I know."
