Xu Qi ‘an brought Heng Yuan back to the Xu mansion and ordered the servants to clean the guest room and bring the master to stay.
For Xu Qi ‘an and the Xu family, Hengyuan’s ability to stay at the Xu mansion was undoubtedly a great protection. There was the saintess of the heavenly sect, Black Panther from the southern frontier, and a monk with a sarira.
The guards of the Xu estate were already frighteningly strong, far stronger than the majority of the estates of the nobles.
“Sorry for the disturbance, ” Hengyuan said with his hands pressed together.
After he finished speaking, he followed the servant to the outer court.
Although he was a monk, he was still a man. It was not convenient for him to live in the inner courtyard, as there were too many women there.
Hengyuan was led to a quiet room at the edge of the room.
He didn’t think that it was a neglect. Instead, he was glad that Xu Qi ‘an was considerate. Hengyuan needed a quiet room for him to read Sutras during morning and evening classes.
After a simple cleaning of the room, Hengyuan put his hands together and thanked the servant.
After the servant left, he was about to close the door and meditate when he suddenly saw a small head sticking out of the door. The black eyes looked at him naively with a bit of curiosity.
Hengyuan smiled and said gently, “Young benefactor.”
He knew this girl. She was Xu Qi ‘an’s younger sister, and Hengyuan had been to the Xu mansion several times.
“You’re also coming to my house?” Xu Ling asked.
“Sorry for the disturbance.” Hengyuan looked apologetic.
Xu lingying stepped over the threshold, took out a piece of cake from his pocket, and offered it with both hands. “For you to eat.”
What a sensible and kind child … Hengyuan was touched and smiled. He took the cake and stuffed it into his mouth. It tasted a little weird.
Hengyuan looked at the girl in confusion. He thought to himself, ” do I have to give flowers after giving out desserts? Lord Xu’s younger sister is too warm and sensible.
Xu Lingyin furrowed her brows and said in distress, ‘
“I was playing outside just now and knocked over mother’s beloved flower. I’m going to be beaten again. Uncle, can you just tell her that you knocked it over?
you’re a guest, my mother won’t hit you.”
“Monks don’t lie,” Hengyuan said helplessly.
Xu lingying raised her face, not knowing what was going on.”What do you mean by that?”
“I just can’t lie, ” Hengyuan explained gently.
then give me back the pastry. I hid it in my shoes for three days and couldn’t bear to eat it … Xu linging said with tears in her eyes.
Hengyuan was dumbfounded.
When he returned to the study, huaiqing and Li Miaozhen were still waiting. The two beautiful women with different looks were sitting quietly. The atmosphere was not heavy, but it was not relaxed.
Seeing Xu Qi ‘an cross the threshold, huaiqing’s reaction was even bigger than li Miaozhen’S. He quickly got up and walked over with his skirt fluttering.
She suddenly stopped in front of Xu Qi ‘an and stared at him with her limpid eyes. Several times, she wanted to say something but stopped herself. She tried her best to control her voice and said, ‘
“Who, who is it?”
“It wasn’t him.” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head and paused for a few seconds. He then added in a low voice, “”lt’s him.”
Two answers, two of him, corresponding to the two portraits.
Huaiqing’s expression suddenly froze, and her beautiful face paled uncontrollably. The color of blood receded bit by bit, and she seemed unable to accept this reality. A huge wave of dizziness hit her, and her body swayed, about to fall.
Xu Qi ‘an put an arm around her waist and sighed.”Your Highness, my condolences …”
“I’m fine, I’m fine …” Huaiqing nudged him a few times before leaning softly on his shoulder, his fragrant shoulder trembling.
Xu Qi ‘an wanted to hold the beauty in his arms tightly, but considering that she was not Lin’ an, he only held her lightly, lending his solid chest and broad shoulders to the eldest Princess.
Li Miaozhen. who didn’t know the truth. was stunned. What do you want to do . What do you want to do in front of me?
This process didn’t last long. After huaiqing cried a little, he quickly suppressed his emotions and left Xu Qi ‘an’s arms. He said softly,”Bengong has lost her composure.”
Li Miaozhen took advantage of the opportunity and asked, “”What’s going on?”
Xu Qi ‘an glanced at Huai Qing. Seeing that she didn’t object, he explained to the Holy Virgin, “”The one at the bottom of the Dragon vein is not the Dao head of the earth sect, but the previous emperor.”
The previous emperor?
Li Miaozhen’s face froze. She slowly opened her mouth and widened her beautiful eyes. Xu Qi ‘an’s words echoed in her mind. After a long time, she heard herself Mutter, ‘
“How is that possible?” the one who was truly obsessed with immortality was the former emperor. I also find it hard to believe, but it may be the truth. Xu Qi ‘an sighed again.
The previous Emperor’s physical condition was not good. Although he had faked his death, the Imperial astronomer’s diagnosis could not be wrong. The previous emperor was addicted to women and had hollowed out his body.
This was clearly recorded in the history books. The short words ” Jean d ‘arc is lustful ” explained everything.
He knew his own body best, which was why the previous emperor had a desire for cultivation and immortality. However, because of the rule that those with luck could not live forever, he could only suppress this desire in his heart.
It was only when the earth sect’s head of Dao came to the capital that some secrets unknown to outsiders must have happened, which changed the previous Emperor’s understanding and allowed him to see the possibility of immortality.
Li Miaozhen took a long time to digest this news and retorted, ‘
impossible. The previous emperor was not a disciple of Dao sect, and he was not even a warrior. The existence you saw in the Dragon vein underground was so powerful that it made you tremble..
