Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

Chapter 296: An ant trying to shake a tree, Qi-boosting pill.

Qin Yongming walked into the National Master's Mansion, his heart filled with shock.

Unexpectedly, he had been away for only two months when the abbot suddenly became the Imperial Master. Now the Imperial Master's Mansion is so majestic that people dare not even breathe when walking in it.

However, thinking of the servants and guards he met every time, who would bow respectfully and call out "Qin Changshi" when they saw his brother traveling with him, Qin Yongming quietly straightened his back a little.

After walking for more than a minute, we finally arrived at Chengming Hall in the main courtyard.

When I walked into the main hall, I saw the abbot sitting at the top waiting for me.

Although the temple master looked the same as usual, he felt a little nervous for some reason and knelt down as soon as he entered the main hall:

"I pay my respects to the Imperial Master!"

When he was halfway down kneeling, he was lifted up by an invisible force.

The master's cold and gentle voice reached my ears:

"Your Qin family are old people who have followed me for a long time. There is no need to kneel down. Just do everything as usual."

Qin Yongming felt very honored and immediately changed his hand to a salute:

"Thank you so much, Master!"

"Okay, sit down."

Chen Qingzhu pointed to the position on the lower left side.

Qin Yongming sat down respectfully, and then reported to Chen Qingzhu what he had discovered while tracking Pei Xiao.

"Master, I returned to the capital on the same day as Jingnan Bo, and his leg disease has healed!"

Chen Qingzhu was a little surprised.

Pei Xiao went out in the name of looking for medicine, but he didn't expect that he could really cure the hidden injury on his leg.

"Oh? How did you cure it?"

Qin Yongming said:

"From the first time he went off the ship to buy things, he was able to walk like a normal person. I originally thought he just wasn't sick, but later I discovered that he was walking normally, even in winter, and I've never seen a wheelchair in his luggage."

"Therefore, I speculate that he either brought a miracle doctor on board, or he had already cured his leg before leaving Beijing."

Chen Qingzhu sat up straight after hearing this.

Wheelchairs are not something you can buy everywhere; they are almost always custom-made.

Winter is the peak season for leg diseases, so Pei Xiao can't not bring it.

Unless he was sure that his leg disease had been completely cured and would never recur.

"When did he first go off the ship to do some shopping?"

"Three days after I got on board."

Chen Qingzhu carefully recalled the original information.

She was sure that before Pei Xiao left Beijing, the mansion did not invite any peerless doctor, nor did it change the prescription and treatment method.

So, who was able to cure his leg in such a short time?

No, she overlooked a person who had mobilized a large army to go to Jingnan Marquis's Mansion——

Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi!

Pei Xiao suddenly went out after Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi came to the Earl's Mansion.

Moreover, while all the concubines in the palace were either infertile or died of illness after giving birth, she raised three healthy children.

Her elder sister, Zhang, also went from being infertile due to cold body to successfully becoming pregnant and giving birth to a child.

In addition, Pei Xiao’s leg disease was cured in a short time.

Chen Qingzhu was completely certain that Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi was no ordinary person.

Immediately, Chen Qingzhu decided to investigate the matter personally.

After deciding this matter, she continued to inquire about Jingnan Bo's movements over the past two months.

Regarding this aspect, the Qin family mentioned something roughly in their last letter, but for more details, we still have to listen to Qin Yongming’s personal report.

In general, Pei Xiao only did one thing during his trip southwards.

That is to find ways to prove that the King of Shu in Cihang Temple was guilty of treason.

I have to say that Pei Xiao is quite capable in doing things.

He divided his troops into two groups and went to Nando himself.

At the beginning, he found a Shu businessman in Nando, promised him benefits, and let him get close to Cihang Temple, trying to make him a believer of Cihang Temple.

Qin Yongming discovered this and informed Huijing, and the Shu merchant was turned away.

After learning that Lord Du'e had cleared the plague in the capital, he went south to Xingde and fabricated some evidence, intending to frame Lord Du'e for the plague in Xingde.

In addition, when he went south, he also sent several subordinates to Shu, reportedly trying to find a way to contact the King of Shu.

Although the intelligence over there is unclear, its intention is easy to guess. It is probably that they want to join forces with the King of Shu and create some evidence of her treason.

In this way, Emperor Yong'an will lose her powerful divine helper, and the King of Shu will certainly be happy to see it happen.

Similarly, this also means that if the King of Shu intervenes, it will be difficult for them to clear themselves of the charge of treason.

Huiyun, who was standing by, frowned and said angrily:

"Lord Jingnan's plan is really vicious! Fortunately, the temple master sent people to follow us early, otherwise we would have been caught off guard!"

Chen Qingzhu didn't show any worry on his face, he said calmly:

"Even if they didn't know beforehand, their move is just like an ant trying to shake a tree."

For any powerful person, being involved with a rebel party would mean extermination of the entire clan.

You must try every possible way and use all your strength to clear yourself of suspicion.

But she is no ordinary noble; she is a deity who transcends imperial power.

If we end up in the same situation as those powerful people, all our previous plans will be in vain.

Seeing this, Huiyun and Qin Yongming's originally anxious hearts finally calmed down.

The temple master said that the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion was like an ant trying to shake a tree, and that was just an ant trying to shake a tree, and they didn't need to worry about it anymore.

After sending Qin Yongming to rest, Chen Qingzhu said to Huiyun:

"Huiyun, go find me some effective aphrodisiac incense immediately."

Although Huiyun didn't understand the meaning, she immediately followed the order and left.

They have been in the capital for some time, and Huiyun is in charge of all the mundane affairs. She can naturally find the right person to do this.

The next day, Huiyun came to report to Chen Qingzhu with a handful of incense.

"Master, I have tested this incense. It works very well on both humans and livestock. It can make people completely lose consciousness in a moment."

"Very good, leave it there."

Chen Qingzhu was very satisfied with her rigor.

That night, he brought some incense and visited the Jingnan Marquis's mansion.

Although Marquis Jingnan has been demoted to Earl Jingnan, his mansion remains unchanged.

In her previous life, she lived in the Jingnan Marquis Mansion in the capital for seven or eight years. As a wandering soul, she often roamed in and out of the mansion. She was familiar with the layout of this place.

In the darkness of the night, she was dressed in black and did not even need to use invisibility to successfully find Pei Xiao's bedroom without alerting anyone.

It was already late at night when she arrived. She lifted a tile on the roof and could easily see what was going on inside the house.

A dim night light was on in the room, and a maid and a boy who were on guard were both drowsy in the outer room.

Since someone was keeping watch at night, it meant that she didn't need to find another place, so Pei Xiao spent the night in his own yard.

Chen Qingzhu landed lightly from the roof, lit the incense, and manipulated the vines to send the incense in through the window gap.

After waiting for about a quarter of a minute, she finally opened the window and entered the bedroom.

At this time, both Pei Xiao and the servants on night watch were fast asleep in the room.

Chen Qingzhu came to Pei Xiao's bed without any hindrance.

Surprisingly, there was only a pair of shoes next to the bed.

Chen Qingzhu's lips curled slightly, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

It seems that Pei Xiao's spirit has returned.

Even though today was only the second night since he returned home, he was unwilling to pretend to be a loving couple with Zhang anymore.

Chen Qingzhu came to the bed, opened the curtain, and placed his hand on Pei Xiao's head.

A very subtle strand of spiritual energy penetrated into his body from the top of his head.

The moment the spiritual energy entered his body, Chen Qingzhu's cold eyes became sharp.

Pei Xiao's hidden injury on his knee had indeed healed.

But what surprised her even more was that she could actually sense obvious residual medicinal power of the Yiqi Pill in Pei Xiao's body!
