Travel through different worlds and experience different lives

A lady beside Cheng Xiu asked curiously: Madam Zi, how did you manage to make your second daughter's life worse than that of a maid?

We often see you taking your eldest daughter out to parties. Which piece of clothing and jewelry doesn’t cost hundreds of taels of silver?

Even some of the jewelry cost thousands of taels.

How did you manage to spend less than 100 taels of silver on your second daughter's living expenses for more than ten years?

Leng Fei said at this time: There is no woman in my backyard. I am twenty-five years old this year. My father asked me to come here this time for the purpose of marriage.

Although I cannot promise you anything, I can marry you if you are willing.

Zi Xue didn't even look at Leng Fei and said directly: Prince Leng, you should find someone else, we are not suitable.

Leng Fei was stunned when he heard this and asked: Why?

Zixue didn't answer again, and didn't even look at him.

Everyone was curious after seeing this and wanted to know why?

Xia Jun of Caiyun Kingdom asked curiously: County Princess, could you tell me why the Third Prince of Tianxue Kingdom is not suitable?

Zi Xue said: This county lady doesn't like a man who tells lies all the time.

Upon hearing this, Xia Jun laughed and said: How did the county lady know that?

Zixue didn't answer again.

Xia Jun smiled and said: "What do you think of me, the county lady?" My father once said that he would not give women to any of our princes in the backyard. Even if my mother wanted to give me a woman, I didn't accept it.

Zi Xue glanced at Xia Jun and said: Your mother is not your biological mother, how could she do this for your own good?

It's just that you want those women to monitor your actions.

Upon hearing this, Xia Jun stopped laughing and asked seriously: "County Lady, you can't say such things carelessly."

Zi Xue ignored Xia Jun's words and said directly: You are just a shield for her and her son, what can't you say?

I am not from your Caiyun Country.

Even if I gave you, my mother, a hundred courages, she would not dare to attack me.

No one knew what anyone thought when they heard this, but no one continued the topic.

Xia Jun didn't say anything either, but sat there thinking about what had happened over the years.

Zi Xue said: Your father knows, so there is no need to wonder why you don’t know.

Because she was the one who killed your biological mother, and your father knew about it.

To put it nicely, she is your father's true love, and your mother is just a shield for his true love.

After saying this, not only the princes and princesses of various countries, but even the emperor and the queen were a little shocked.

The emperor asked curiously: Girl, how do you know all this?

Zi Xue said helplessly: I can tell fortunes, so I can know a lot of things just by looking at the other person's face.

The emperor became even more curious after hearing this, and said with a smile: How about you calculate it for me?

Zi Xue was speechless and said: I knew the emperor would be waiting for me here.

But Your Majesty, if you want to calculate it, then that’s fine, but you can’t ask me to calculate my life span and the country’s destiny.

Upon hearing this, the emperor laughed and said: Okay, then can you tell me how my health is?

This doesn't count as life span.

Zi Xue was speechless when she heard this: Your Majesty, you really know how to play it safe.

However, I can calculate this for you, but you should call a royal doctor first.

The emperor smiled and nodded, saying: Okay, and then Fulai went to call the imperial physician behind him.

Zi Xue counted on her fingers for a while and then said: Did Your Majesty drink a bowl of Tremella fuciformis porridge on the fifth day of last month?

Upon hearing this, the emperor asked Fulai, who thought for a moment and nodded, saying: Your Majesty, you did drink a bowl of Tremella fuciformis porridge on the fifth day of last month.

Zi Xue really didn't want to calculate, but seeing that the emperor was a really good person, she could only help resolve this crisis.

He sighed and said: "Please ask the imperial physician to use a silver needle to prick the emperor's earring to see if there is any black blood."

After that, he sighed and said: Your Majesty, I saved your life, first because you are a good emperor, and second because you are tolerant of me. This is to repay your kindness.

The emperor now became serious and said: Girl, what do you think?

Zi Xue said: Your Majesty, although I didn't calculate your lifespan, your health is also related to your lifespan, and they are all connected. I originally didn't want to calculate it for you, but I felt that you were really good to me.

You are better than my biological parents, so I don’t want anything to happen to your health. I am here today to repay your kindness.

After saying that, he stood up and walked to the emperor. The imperial physician had already given him a prick and found that there was indeed black blood.

Zi Xue walked behind the emperor and said: Your Majesty, please bear with it for a moment. I will force the poison out of you. It will be quick and you don't need to take any medicine. You will feel different soon.

The emperor still trusted Zixue very much and nodded, saying: Okay, you start.

Zi Xue did not hesitate and put her hand on the emperor's back. Then the emperor felt his body, especially his heart.

It was extremely painful, and my head was sweating, but I still gritted my teeth and endured it.

Zixue said: Eunuch Fu took a bowl and placed it next to the emperor's mouth, then asked the emperor to open his mouth, and the emperor did so.

Soon everyone saw the emperor spit a mouthful of black blood into the bowl.

There was actually a bug wriggling in the bowl.

The woman almost screamed when she saw it.

After the emperor spat out a mouthful of black blood, he felt more relaxed than when he was young.

But Zixue was so tired that her face turned pale. The maid helped her sit down and said: "Your Majesty is fine now. This is a Gu. It has been in your body for forty years."

That bowl of lotus seed porridge is used to lure the Gu. Actually, it is not lotus seed porridge, but it tastes and looks very similar.

The emperor looked at the poisonous insects in the bowl and said: Girl, can you figure out who is harming me?

Zi Xue said: Your Majesty, let’s talk about this later after the banquet is over.

The emperor nodded upon hearing this and did not ask any more questions. His health was indeed better than ever now.

He smiled and said to the envoys and princes from various countries: It seems that none of you have impressed the county princess, hahahaha.

Princesses from various countries also witnessed how powerful this county lady was. She was able to calculate so many things. Just now, the man from Tianxue Country was described as a liar.

Did the county lady figure out that the prince was two-faced?

Everyone was extremely curious, and Hu Cheng from Sheng Feiguo was equally curious, so he asked: "County Princess, could you tell us how he is so hypocritical?"

Oh no, what kind of lies is this?

Everyone almost spit out the tea they had just drunk when they heard this. Isn’t your question a bit unfriendly?

Well, it’s not the first day that everyone has known each other, so they naturally know that Shengfei Kingdom and Tianxue Kingdom are not on good terms.

Zi Xue smiled and said: Because he already has more than a dozen children, and there is no woman in the palace who behaves as if she is pure and indifferent to anyone.

In fact, although the women he had outside could not compare with his father's, they were not much worse. He had dozens or even hundreds of them.

I don't need to say the rest, I think everyone knows it.

It can be seen that his father was deceived and too cunning. Unfortunately, that position will never be his.

Everyone didn't listen to the first part of the sentence, but only heard the second part, which said it's a pity that position will never be his. What does this mean?

Not to mention the other princes, even he himself was very curious.

It’s a pity that Zixue didn’t say anything.

Hahaha, Zixue is just trying to keep people in suspense, there is no other meaning, it’s just one word: fun.

What the emperor is considering now is not who has harmed him, but whether he should use this girl as a marriage partner since she is so capable.

If such a capable girl were to marry a man from another country, it would be a huge loss for her own country.

Unfortunately, all his sons were married and had many wives and concubines, except King Zhan, who had fewer concubines in his backyard. Unfortunately, it was impossible for them to be together.

The emperor was looking around with his eyes like radar, trying to see if there was any backyard without a woman.

What's more, he really found one, and it was his own son, Lao Jiu, who was 22 years old this year. Well, his sons were almost the same age, with no more than five years difference.

Many of them are the same age, just in different years, months and days.

The Ninth Prince has a body shape like the Emperor and is a simple and honest person. He is also a prince who leads troops to fight in battles, but the Ninth Prince doesn't like it and prefers to be an idle prince. His political achievements are not as many as those of the War Prince.

That's why he keeps a low profile. I heard that there were indeed no women in his backyard. At first, everyone thought that Lao Jiu liked men.

Later, I found out after asking that it wasn’t that she liked men, it was just that she hadn’t met the woman she liked.

Another reason is that he doesn't want his woman to be alone in an empty house. After all, he is away from home all year round and usually lives in the army.

So I didn't plan to look for a princess.

In fact, even if the emperor didn't say it, the current Ninth Prince has also become interested in Zixue. Not to mention her abilities, he likes her appearance as well.

It’s just that my father actually wants this county princess to marry a foreign prince. Isn’t it a pity?

When you see your father's radar-like eyes scanning everywhere, you know that your father actually regrets it, hahahaha.

Zi Xue didn't care about what others thought. She looked at the food on the table, took a bite and felt it was good, so she also gave a piece to her maid. The master and servant ate snacks openly in this way.

Everyone was speechless, but seeing how nice this girl was to her maid, they knew that she was not the kind of master who liked to beat or scold her maid.

Besides, didn't you see how the maid fought against the king just now? The way she defended the county lady was like a hen protecting her chicks.

From these behaviors, we can see how good the county lady is to these maids.

If someone treats her maid badly, the maid would not dare to say anything at this time. Even if she is protecting her master, she would not dare to speak casually. After all, no matter whether what she said is right or wrong, it is an overstep.

Zixue said while eating: This one is delicious too, take some back for Lingling.

Otherwise that girl will definitely be angry with you.
