Chapter 661 Reward
He had read the original owner's memories and of course understood the emperor's attitude towards the original owner.

Half of the reason why the original owner became like this was due to the emperor.

It was not because of his strange temper and personality that the emperor disliked him, but it was because he was disliked by the emperor first that he developed such a strange temper and personality.

Of course he could see clearly now that the problem lay with the original owner's mother.

The original owner was the victim of the emperor's wrath.

Just imagine how difficult it is to live as a prince who is disliked by the emperor.

The original owner simply gave up and became more and more irritable and weird, and outsiders seemed to be ungrateful.

The original owner seemed to have a very bad attitude towards Concubine Hui and was very cruel, but in fact, deep down in his heart, he cherished Concubine Hui the most.

He desperately desires the affection of Concubine Hui and is extremely caring towards Chu Zhen and Chu Qiao.

But all of this is covered by a hard shell with thorns and is unknown to outsiders.

The original owner's feelings towards the emperor were the most complicated, with admiration, resentment, inferiority, and a desire for recognition.

Chu Zhiyuan performed the Marrying Heaven Reincarnation Technique and inherited the original owner's emotions.

While inheriting, he is not completely controlled by these emotions, but instead has an independent perspective and detached emotions.

He had resentment towards the emperor, but what he wanted most was to stay away from him.

Chu Hongming said: "My royal brother is fair in his actions."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, shook his head and didn't refute, and said with a smile: "Uncle Fifth and Uncle Fifteen, aren't you curious about my gains?"

Chu Honglin waved his hand: "That's your own business, you don't have to tell us."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, “I can’t say my luck is bad, but I can’t say it’s good either… My good luck is that I met this guy and discovered the demon clan’s conspiracy. My bad luck is that I didn’t get the Void Secret Treasure, but I also gained a lot of exotic flowers and fruits, which pushed my cultivation level up.”

Chu Honglin reached out and patted his shoulder, smiling, "It's actually the ninth turn!... It looks like you've gained a lot!"

There are exotic flowers and fruits in Yujing Cave, but there are not that many. You need good luck to come across them. If you can advance one or two turns, you are extremely lucky.

He was indeed lucky to be able to push it directly to the ninth turn.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled proudly and took out two Tianqi fruits from the ebony bracelet.

He handed one to Chu Honglin and one to Chu Hongming: "Uncle Fifth and Uncle Fifteen, please share in the good fortune."

Chu Honglin smiled and said, "What use do I have for it?"

Chu Hongming also declined.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "You don't need the fifth and fifteenth uncles, just give them to your own children."

"...Where do I have children!" Chu Honglin said unhappily.

"You can give it to your relatives and friends, Uncle Fifteen."

"Forget about such a valuable thing. Keep it for yourself and give it to someone else."

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand and ran away.

"This brat!" Chu Honglin scolded with a smile.

Chu Hongming put away the Tianqi Fruit and shook his head, saying, "It's like he's a different person."

Chu Honglin snorted, "After dying once, I finally figured it out."

He raised his head and looked into the distance, then turned his head and said, "Fifth brother, do you want to come with me to see my brother?"

"Ask for a reward on behalf of His Highness the Ninth Prince?"

"Such a great achievement cannot be denied, right? ...Don't say that my brother is wise. He is not wise at all when it comes to Zhao'er!"

"...Fifteenth brother, don't argue with me. I will never change my mind once I've made a decision."

"My brother is so cruel! Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs!"

"Fifteenth brother!" Chu Hongming shouted hurriedly.

Chu Honglin snorted, shook his head and said no more: "No matter what, I'm going to take this reward anyway."

Chu Hongming said: "Forget it, don't go and talk, I'll go instead."

He weighed the Tianqi Fruit in his hand and said, "I can't accept His Highness the Ninth Prince's gift for nothing."

Chu Honglin exhaled, suppressed his excitement and anger, nodded and said: "Fifth brother, it would be more effective if you go."

When Chu Zhiyuan returned to his courtyard, he found Youlan flipping through files in the pavilion.

The midday sun illuminates the courtyard brightly, and everything is warm.

Youlan, who was in the small pavilion, was wearing a dark green palace dress, with almond eyes and rosy cheeks, and was extremely beautiful.

She was frowning, staring at the file in her jade hands, lost in thought. Suddenly, she realized something, looked up, and found Chu Zhiyuan standing not far away with a smile.

He was overjoyed and hurried out of the pavilion to greet him: "Your Highness!"

"aunt."

Chu Zhiyuan walked to the pavilion, sat down, picked up a file, and when he saw that it was about the fiefdom, he lost interest and put it back.

Although the prince's palace was not conferred the title of king, since it was established, he must have a fiefdom.

The fiefdom was a mixture of real and virtual, with some parts being real and some being virtual.

Neither the original owner nor Chu Zhiyuan had any interest in the fiefdom and were too lazy to care about it.

Even if the land was actually granted, it was still managed by the imperial court, and one could only collect taxes from it.

The fictitious land was just a salary from the Zongzhengfu.

Youlan made some tea and handed it to him, looking at him with concern: "Your Highness, did you encounter any trouble in the cave?"

"It's pretty good. I got a lot of exotic flowers and fruits. This is for you, Auntie."

Chu Zhiyuan took out two second-grade Qingyuan fruits from the ebony bracelet and gave them to her.

Youlan took it and said with a smile: "Then I will keep it in the inner palace for reward... It is perfect for reward, both the guards and the escorts will like it very much."

She knew that most of the exotic flowers and fruits that came out of Yujing Cave could improve the cultivation level of Qi Transformation Realm.

This is a rare spiritual fruit in the world that can enhance one's cultivation without any side effects after taking it.

Even if the palace guards have cultivation levels above the Qi Transformation Stage, they are still needed by friends and relatives.

"Aunt, this is for you. There are others as rewards for the people in the mansion."

"Your Highness..."

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, and the stone table was suddenly filled with exotic fruits of various shapes and colors, which was extremely spectacular.

Among these strange fruits, the fourth grade is the most common, followed by the third grade, and those below the fourth grade and above the third grade are very rare.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Are these enough? This is the Tourmaline Fruit, this is the Tianqi Fruit, and this is..."

He introduced these strange fruits one by one and told their grades.

As for the rare flowers, he didn't take them out.

The rare flowers are elixirs for healing various wounds. They are not normally used but can save lives at critical moments.

Rare flowers are rarer than exotic fruits. If he hadn’t had that flower that could remedy his misfortune before, who knows what would have happened to him now.

"Your Highness has reaped such a huge reward!" Youlan was filled with emotion.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Put these away, you are in charge of them, and keep them as rewards for the servants."

"Yes." Youlan nodded excitedly.

With them, the people in the mansion will be more united and it will be easier to use them.

Chu Zhiyuan continued, "Send someone to inform Mother."

"Yes." Youlan agreed with a smile.

Half an hour later, Concubine Hui arrived at the prince's mansion with Chu Zhen and Chu Qiao.

Chu Zhiyuan then gave out several second-grade exotic fruits and a first-grade Wanxiang fruit.

Chu Zhen and Chu Qiao were extremely excited and happy for him. He had so many exotic fruits and had practiced his cultivation to the ninth level of Qi Transformation. It was a huge gain.

This trip to Yujing Cave was not in vain.

They also downplayed his failure to obtain the Void Secret Treasure and pretended not to care.

The Void Secret Treasure is so precious and strange that it is almost impossible to obtain.

Then they talked about their respective cultivation levels.

With these miraculous fruits, the two women will be able to enter the ninth level soon.

After the ninth transformation, one needs to comprehend in order to enter the state of transformation, and the time required is uncertain.

It can be as short as one month or as long as more than ten years.

Concubine Hui was still lying on the chaise longue, watching the three of them discussing these things lazily.

The warm sunshine made her heart warm as well, and her beautiful face was filled with a smile.

Suddenly, a guard outside came to report that the eunuch who was delivering the palace's imperial decree had arrived.

Chu Zhiyuan went to welcome the eunuch and received a reward from the emperor: he could enter the Tianyi Pavilion and comprehend the intention for three days.
