The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.

Chapter 138: Sheng 2 raises an army to question the culprit

Master Yunxiao was silent for a moment, then slowly said:

"Warfare is unpredictable and full of uncertainties. However, Princess Sheng must know that sincerity is the key to success, and good intentions will eventually bring good results."

Xu Ke frowned, knowing that these Taoist priests were very good at Tai Chi.

Always avoid the important issues and focus on the trivial ones.

It seems like an answer, but in fact it is the same as not answering.

"Master, do you want me to pray sincerely? Or do more good deeds?"

Master Yunxiao smiled without saying anything, and took out a bamboo tube filled with bamboo sticks from the side.

"Princess, why not ask for a fortune?"

Xu Keke hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and picked up the bamboo tube and shook it gently. After a while, a bamboo stick fell out.

Master Yunxiao picked up the bamboo stick, took a look at it, his expression changed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

When Xu Ke saw this, his heart suddenly became heavier.

"Master, what does this sign mean?"

Master Yunxiao sighed softly.

"Princess Sheng, this is a good lot.

First sentence: After adversity comes good times

This indicates that the war will encounter many setbacks at the beginning.

Although it is difficult, as long as we persevere, there is a glimmer of hope."

Xu Ke's heart tightened when he heard this.

"Could you please explain it more clearly? What exactly does this persistence mean?"

Master Yunxiao shook his head.

"Princess, the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. But one thing is that you must remain steadfast and believe in the regent's courage and destiny."

Xu Ke can just throw up his hands.

Outrageous!

I knew you would say that.

But she still asked unwillingly.

"What about my husband's safety?"

Master Yunxiao stroked his beard and said with his eyes closed.

"The Regent's fate has changed, and I cannot predict it. I believe he will always be able to turn misfortune into fortune. Moreover, Princess Sheng, you are the Regent's benefactor, and..."

The old Taoist priest suddenly shut up and took a breath.

Xu Ke seemed to be thinking about it.

Could it be that this old Taoist priest has seen the extraordinary qualities of this palace?

Can he still tell that I am a time traveler?

It seems that he is quite capable!

And he also knows to see through things but not to speak them out.

That's great!

Xu Ke is sincerely grateful for your permission.

"Thank you for your guidance, Master."

True Man Yunxiao said again.

"Princess, this sign also suggests that when the Regent returns, there may be a new situation.

For both of you, this is both a challenge and an opportunity."

Xu Ke was even more satisfied after hearing this.

Didn’t the Taoist priest say that he would not reveal the secrets of heaven?

Now everyone is talking about the return of the Regent.

It seems that he let something slip without even realizing it.

Xu Ke made up his mind secretly.

As long as His Majesty can return safely, no matter how many storms we face in the future, I will face them together with His Majesty.

"Thank you, Immortal, for helping me clear up my doubts. I am relieved now. I will take my leave and not disturb you in your quiet meditation."

After saying this, Xu Ke stood up and said goodbye, leaving the Zen room with full enthusiasm.

After leaving the meditation room, Taoist Wuneng came forward, avoided eye contact, and asked haltingly.

"Female donor...Princess Sheng, have you been feeling unwell recently?"

Before Xu Keke could answer, Sheng Er appeared out of nowhere.

"How rude! How dare you offend the princess like this!"

Sheng Er glared at the incompetent Taoist priest.

Xu Keke, Dingdang and Anxiang were all confused.

This clearly sounds like just a caring greeting, right?

The tone of his voice was so harsh that those who didn't know would think that the incompetent Taoist priest had offended the princess...

Sheng Er had no choice but to do this.

The prince gave specific instructions before he left.

No man is allowed to get too close to the princess, nor can he say anything too intimate to her.

Sheng Er is still a man who has never married.

He was good at fighting, but he couldn't tell which words were meant to be intimate.

I heard that the incompetent Taoist actually asked about the princess's health.

If we don't step in to stop it now, when will we?

Xu Keke saw that he was on edge and quickly waved his hand.

"It's alright, the Taoist priest must have been too concerned and didn't mean to offend me."

The incompetent Taoist was also a little confused by his scolding, and quickly bowed to apologize.

"Princess Sheng, please forgive me. I did say something out of turn, but judging from your expression, you seem a little tired. Please rest well, Princess!"

After saying that, he glanced at Sheng Er.

When I lived in Prince Sheng's mansion, the prince's subordinates were all very respectful to me.

Are you turning your back on me so quickly?

The words of the Taoist Wuneng made Xu Ke slightly stunned.

I didn't expect that this Taoist would care about me after only meeting me a few times.

He chuckled and said:

"Perhaps it's because I haven't had enough rest lately because I've been worried about the prince going on the expedition. Thank you for your concern, Taoist Wuneng."

The incompetent Taoist touched his nose awkwardly. What he was concerned about was the faint purple aura lingering around the princess.

But you can't tell these things to others. I'll have to ask the master later if he has noticed anything.

At this time, Li Yueran came over with a happy face.

"But sister, I drew a very good lot."

Xu Keke took the signature she handed over.

I looked at it for a while but couldn't figure it out.

So he asked Dingdang to take it to show the Taoist Wuneng.

She didn't dare hand it over personally, for fear that Sheng Er would jump out again.

The incompetent Taoist took the lot, took a look at it, and then spoke.

"This is indeed a perfect fortune for marriage. It indicates that this young lady will marry a man of her dreams. Their marriage will be happy, they will love each other, they will have many children, and they will grow old together."

After hearing this, Li Yueran's face flushed and her heart felt sweeter than eating honey.

Xu Ke was happy for Li Yueran after hearing this.

"That's great, sister Ran, just go home and wait for good news!"

Li Yueran took the stick back and asked her maid to put it away for her.

Then he took Xu Keke's arm.

"But sister, it's noon now. I heard there's vegetarian food here. Let's go to the dining hall for lunch."

Xu Ke nodded in response.

"Okay, I'm a little hungry too, so please wait a moment, sister."

Xu Ke called Dingdang and whispered something in her ear.

Dingdang then donated two hundred taels of silver to the Taoist temple's merit box.

Xu Ke was very satisfied with this trip and was not stingy with some money.

Li Yueran also followed suit and donated merit to the Taoist temple.

After finishing this matter, the group headed towards the dining hall.

When Taoist Wuneng saw them walking away, he went to the Zen room of Taoist Yunxiao with great interest.

He wanted to have a good talk with his master about the purple aura he saw on Princess Sheng.

True Man Yunxiao, however, closed his eyes and meditated without saying a word.

The incompetent Taoist didn't dare to disturb them rashly, so he could only sit cross-legged aside and wait quietly.

After a long time, Master Yunxiao slowly opened his eyes and looked at Taoist Wuneng.

The incompetent Taoist hurried forward and spoke anxiously.

"Master, I saw Princess Sheng today and saw a purple aura surrounding her. Is this related to the Purple Star?"

Master Yunxiao smiled with relief.

"Disciple, now that you've seen it, you know it's a divine secret that can't be revealed. Keep the matter of the purple aura in your heart and don't mention it to anyone else."

Wuneng Taoist: "Yes, Master, I will follow your instructions."
