Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Xueyao and her group had never imagined that they would encounter such a major event under such coincidental circumstances. Even more surprising to them was the discovery that Princess Wan'er actually had some subtle connection with them...

Hearing Xueyao say that Princess Wan'er looked familiar, Bai Yichen said, "Of course she does. Do you remember the underground palace?"

"You mean, Qin Wan'er?" Yun Duoduo said excitedly.

"Shh! Speak softly, today is different from the past." Su Xin didn't want to cause trouble.

Everyone had a sudden realization, but stopped talking about the name. They were just curious about what kind of twists and turns the story would contain.

Because they were two miles away from the team in front, Xue Yao and her group walked very slowly, so slowly that everyone felt like dozing off.

But after hearing such a story, everyone's spirits were lifted, just like the wilted crops that came back to life after receiving the rain, with their stems standing straight and their branches and leaves stretching out.

However, this topic could not be further explored at present and was quickly suppressed.

After walking for about an incense stick, everyone felt that it was really meaningless to rush on. Xue Yao said, "Let's stop and rest. Instead of wasting time like this, why not get something delicious?"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and led a few people towards a meadow.

Xueyao planned to walk into the meadow and have some delicious grilled food.

"Okay." The other people also felt that it would be better to eat well and rest well, so that when the time comes, they can set off on their journey as if they were on a journey.

The closer they got to the capital, the less they planned to fly. If they really wanted to fly, they could only do it at night. They all felt that there was no need to cause trouble.

However, just as they left the official road, they heard the sound of horse hooves not far away. Everyone turned their heads and saw a small team of several people, riding horses at full speed, rushing towards them.

Xue Yao frowned slightly, not wanting to be disturbed at this moment. However, the group seemed unwilling to let them have their way, and rushed straight in front of them.

When the group of people came closer, Xue Yao realized that they were the soldiers in that team. Each of them seemed to be in a hurry, with a nervous look on their faces.

The leader was a middle-aged man. After dismounting, he immediately saluted Xue Yao and the others and said anxiously, "Everyone, I'm truly sorry to interrupt your enjoyment."

Then he bowed to Xueyao again and said, "Miss Xueyao, we brothers were blind to your talents before. I hope you can forgive me for any offense we may have caused you."

After receiving the emperor's order, he rushed here. Calculating the time, he thought he should be picking up the people soon. However, on the way here, he ran into the team led by the deputy general. After asking around, he learned that Xue Yao and others were not far away.

Xue Yao didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but seeing the middle-aged man so anxious, she couldn't help but feel a little curious. Unexpectedly, he even apologized to her. For a moment, Xue Yao was completely confused.

"This, this..." Xue Yao didn't know what to say.

Bai Yichen and the others in Miyuan were also confused. Who could tell them what had happened?

"Miss Xueyao, I am Li Tianba, the commander of the imperial guards of the capital. I have come to greet you on the orders of the Emperor." The middle-aged man said after sizing Xueyao up. He then showed a token.

From the look on his face, it seemed like he already knew Xue Yao.

When Xueyao and the others heard this, they were all stunned and secretly surprised.

They never expected that the current emperor would send someone special to pick them up.

Is it a good thing? Yes and no.

This suggests that the Emperor may have indeed known what they were doing. However, from another perspective, their every move was probably already under the control of someone.

Xueyao suddenly thought of a lot.

In this world, if there are people who act like them, and if they are second to none, no one would dare to claim to be first.

So, does anyone doubt them?

Of course, I am not afraid of envy or jealousy.

Just be afraid...

"You've been sent by the Emperor to welcome me?" Xue Yao stared at Li Tianba with suspicion. "Commander Li, are you kidding? How could the Emperor recognize me? How did he know I was coming?"

Bai Yichen and the others in the Secret Garden also frowned, feeling worried that there might be something fishy going on.

This sudden change really caught them off guard, and at the same time, it also made them feel a little uneasy.

Li Tianba saw this and quickly explained, "Miss Xueyao, please rest assured. His Majesty highly appreciates your medical skills and character, so he has specially sent an official to welcome you to the capital. I hope you won't misunderstand me."

Seeing that Xue Yao was still doubtful, Li Tianba hurriedly added, "The emperor is aware of all the good deeds done by the young lady and others in cities and villages across the country." He thought to himself that Miss Xue Yao's appearance was exactly the same as in the portrait, and she was even more beautiful and charming in person.

After hearing this, Xueyao finally felt relieved and stopped worrying about it.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile, "If that's the case, then Xueyao will obey your orders."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" she continued. She thought, since she had to go to the capital anyway, she would just have to act according to circumstances.

The emperor sent someone to pick you up. Surprised? A surprise, a pleasant surprise!

Li Tianba was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly ordered his men to clear the way and invite Xue Yao, Bai Yichen and the others into the city. When they got onto the official road, some of his men waited there, turning around to lead the way, while others walked behind to provide support.

This was indeed a good way to protect Xueyao and the others. However, if Li Tianba really had some intentions, and Xueyao and the others were caught in the middle, with low cultivation, they would be hard to escape even if they had wings.

Bai Yichen observed silently from the side, secretly on guard.

He knew that although Li Tianba appeared respectful on the surface, the capital was unfathomable and any slight negligence could lead to irreversible consequences.

He secretly reminded himself to be careful and not take it lightly.

They were escorted by the royal army and slowly marched towards the capital. On both sides of the road, people stopped to watch and talk about it.

"Is this Miss Xueyao?"

"Yes, yes, that's it."

"She's coming to the capital, and I'm afraid we'll all benefit from it."

"I heard that she brings this group of people with her and helps wherever she goes."

"Yes, I have a distant relative in Fucheng who has received a lot of benefits."

They all knew that the woman being welcomed by the royal army was none other than the kindhearted Miss Xueyao, known for her superb medical skills. Her fame had spread far and wide, and people were filled with admiration and gratitude for her.

Xueyao didn't know that her portraits could be seen in many places.

Xue Yao smiled throughout the journey, nodding slightly in response when the people called her name. Bai Yichen looked at her and couldn't help but feel a surge of pride. He knew that Xue Yao's kindness and medical skills would bring endless benefits to the capital.
