Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Lin Xiaoyue silently looked at the three people opposite her, some frowned, some clenched their fists, and everyone unconsciously tensed their nerves and couldn't help sighing in their hearts.

Although she knew that she should follow the ancient etiquette of respect and inferiority, her modern soul made it difficult for her to kowtow. After a moment, she slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, I was born in the countryside and am originally an ordinary citizen. I believe you must have thoroughly investigated this before conferring the title of Princess on me."

The emperor frowned and nodded without saying a word, making no secret of the fact that he had indeed sent the Black Scale Guards to thoroughly investigate Lin Xiaoyue's background...

Lin Xiaoyue paused, observing the emperor's expression. Seeing him nod, she continued, "Your Majesty once found out that when I was 13 years old, my uncle had a blow on my head. I almost died. The doctor said my life was hanging by a thread.

And everything changed at that time.

At that time, I was in danger and was about to die. I met an old immortal with a white beard riding a crane. He said that I had done good deeds in my previous life and should not have died so young in this life, but because of the evil deeds of a villain, my life span was shortened. Then the old immortal waved his whisk and took me to a place that looked like a fairyland and taught me many things. After that, he waved his whisk again and sent me back! ..."

Lin Xiaoyue brought out the same rhetoric that she had used to fool Lin's mother and the Lin sisters, without a single hitch, and copied and pasted it extremely smoothly and fluently for the emperor and the others to hear.

As for gods, people in this dynasty were still very superstitious. No matter whether you were a high-ranking official or an ordinary citizen, who wouldn't believe in them?

Even the Son of Heaven was called "mandated by Heaven," implying that he was the son of Heaven, acting on behalf of Heaven and managing human affairs.

Modern people know that this is a kind of thinking education extended from the ancients in order to deify the imperial power and consolidate the rule, so that the people would believe that the monarch's power came from heaven and therefore must be obeyed and respected.

The ancients did not receive compulsory education, so how could they know the twists and turns? Not to mention the common people, even the royal family believed this statement.

Otherwise, if you don't believe in heaven and God, aren't you leading the rebellion and claiming that you are the son of God, and are thus destroying yourself?

Sure enough, Lin Xiaoyue made the right bet.

As soon as the White-bearded Immortal was thrown out, the eyes of the Emperor, the Seventh Uncle and the Crown Prince opposite them seemed to have hundreds of watts of light bulbs installed, glowing brightly.

She swallowed hard and racked her brains, trying her best to describe the image of the White-bearded Immortal as vividly as possible under the expectant gazes of the three people.

In this way, all the "miracles" that were beyond the cognition of this dynasty, such as his ability to improve bows and crossbows, invent gunpowder, and even the conception of amusement parks, naturally had their origins.

"What about the Empress Tiansheng who can control water and the eunuch who can shoot fireballs during the talks?"

The three of them did not comment on Lin Xiaoyue's words, and all kept silent with their lips pursed.

It was really shocking to be blessed by gods and to be blessed by gods. It was hard to accept it immediately.

Therefore, they turned their attention to Lin Lin and Chen Yi, who possessed extraordinary abilities and almost killed everyone without realizing it.

Lin Xiaoyue knew they would ask this, so she pretended to be helpless, sighed, and continued, "Your Majesty, the immortal once told me that there were two people with supernatural powers who would bring disaster to the world. I didn't think much about it at the time, but now the Empress Tiansheng and the eunuch I met in the peace talks must be the incarnation of evil that the immortal said. These two people will cause chaos in the world and harm the people. The immortal specifically ordered me to pay attention, and if I meet the two people, I will use the power and ability he gave me to fight them."

The emperor remained silent, thinking about Lin Xiaoyue's words in his mind. He knew very well that what Lin Xiaoyue said was almost the same as the information reported by the Black Scale Guards when they investigated. All the changes happened in an accident when she was 13 years old and almost died on the spot.

And she was originally just an ordinary peasant girl. If there had been no rescue by the gods, everything that happened before her would have been difficult to explain.

"You said you were favored by the gods, do you have any evidence?" The emperor's eyes were burning.

Lin Xiaoyue looked directly into the emperor's eyes, pretended to be helpless and spread her hands, shrugged her shoulders, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, the matter of immortals is illusory. Although I have no evidence, this power is real. I used this power to save Your Majesty from danger, which shows my loyalty to Your Majesty, isn't it?"

As she spoke, Lin Xiaoyue flipped her hand and produced a pile of steaming food and spread it on the ground.

Faced with the sudden appearance of steaming porridge, rice, noodles and rice with an alluring aroma, the emperor and the other two couldn't help but skip a beat.

A trace of surprise and vigilance flashed across the emperor's eyes, but he still pretended to be calm on the outside and stared at her. After a long time, he said, "If what you said is true, I will know it in the future. But now the situation is critical, can you tell me what countermeasures you have?"

Lin Xiaoyue spread her hands, her body softened and she leaned back against the rock wall, saying helplessly, "Your Majesty, you know that I am not good at brain activities. When facing those two people, I will do my best to complete the instructions of the gods. But before that, if you really want to ask me what countermeasures I have, I can't tell you one, two, three."

Lin Xiaoyue didn't intend to embarrass herself. She was really not good at conspiracy and conspiracy. If she could solve the problem with her fists, why would she bother to think hard and rack her brains? It would be better to just use force to solve it.

In addition, if Chen Yi and Lin Lin were lucky enough to survive, they would not let it go. They would be able to guess my identity and come to seek revenge on me no matter what.

The emperor was choked by Lin Xiaoyue's words, but then he thought about his several contacts with Lin Xiaoyue and found that this girl was indeed a man of action and not good at intrigue. So he rolled his eyes at her unhappily, stood up silently, and paced back and forth thinking.

The Seventh Prince was quick-witted and scooped up the bowl of steaming shrimp porridge in front of him, slurped it up, and took the opportunity to get close to Lin Xiaoyue, winked at her and asked, "Hey, you are such a bad girl, you have been blessed by the gods, but you have held back such a good thing for so long.

If you hadn't encountered those two half-human, half-ghost monsters this time, your magical power of creating things out of thin air might not have been exposed so quickly?

Come on, come on, come up with something else to show me around so I can open my eyes."

Although the prince pursed his lips and said nothing, his pair of bright eyes stared at Lin Xiaoyue like a searchlight, and he had to see Lin Xiaoyue thoroughly inside and out.

Faced with two older, curious babies who had no grudges and were getting older and older, Lin Xiaoyue silently rolled her eyes, turned her head to the side, and silently rejected their inquiry.

The emperor did not continue to embarrass Lin Xiaoyue or ask any other questions. After all, as Lin Xiaoyue said, she had no ill will towards him and others. On the contrary, if Lin Xiaoyue had not jumped out to expose her magic at that time...
