The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.

Han Cuiyin slept for two hours and felt much more refreshed.

"I shouldn't have made you risk your life during the day. If I had taken both of you into the Longevity Diagram, I would have traveled on my own!" Luo Jingqian said with some heartache.

The Third Prince had some means of self-preservation, so it was indeed not advisable to confront him head-on at that time.

However, he didn't believe the Third Prince would actually dare to attack him.

His maternal grandmother was, after all, a member of the royal family. No matter how dissatisfied the emperor was, he wouldn't dare to openly take action against their branch of the royal family.

When the late emperor died, there was no time to establish a crown prince. Whether there was a legitimate son or not, everyone was considered a son of a concubine, and all sorts of schemes and tricks were used.

In the end, it was only through the intervention of the maternal grandmother that the situation was stabilized.

Even if the Emperor is still dissatisfied, the maternal grandmother has already withdrawn from the center of power. If the Third Prince sets a precedent, the royal family will not sit idly by.

Luo Jingqian did not step forward; the two spoke through the screen.

Han Cuiyin shook her head, twisted her body, took out a large cup of spiritual spring water and drank it all in one gulp, sweeping away all her fatigue.

"Be extra careful when you encounter Han Yueshi in the future! She has a small jade bottle with auspicious cloud patterns on her, which is no ordinary object, but a storage space that can hold living things. We don't know its specific effects yet, but Lian Yao taught her the cultivation method."

After speaking, Han Cuiyin, without any makeup, wearing a light pink dress and with her hair casually styled with a lotus hairpin, walked out from behind the screen.

Luo Jingqian was taken aback by his appearance, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Miss, please have something to eat first." Gao Xiaolan hurried over with a tray. "Lord Marquis, please persuade her. How can she not eat? You were completely dazed when you came back. You can't take such a disrespectful attitude towards your health."

Steam rose from the white porcelain bowl, indicating that it had just been cooked.

The rich aroma of chicken soup filled the room, making Han Cuiyin's stomach rumble with anticipation.

Gao Xiaolan placed two white porcelain bowls in front of the two of them, then went into the dormitory and took out the light green dress that Han Cuiyin had changed out of, preparing to wash it the next day.

Only two people remained in the room.

"And this too!" Seeing that she had an appetite, Luo Jingqian hurriedly took out Qing Shuang Mountain's specialty—deep-fried small silver fish.

The outer oil paper was still warm, indicating that it had just come out of the pan.

Han Cuiyin's eyes lit up. "Jingqian, thank you!"

The small silver fish, a specialty of Hantan, now have remarkable medicinal effects.

Before leaving Beijing this time, she made a special trip back to Qingshuang Mountain.

Besides setting up some simple protective formations for Qingshuang Mountain, the main goal was to reach the Cold Pool.

She placed the large turtle she obtained from the Pinglian River basin in a cold pool.

At first, the giant turtle was unhappy about being moved from the lotus seedpod to the outside. But after it went into the water, it refused to come out again.

The cold pool has indeed changed.

The moment the Five Elements Heaven-Mending Array was set up, the Cold Pool changed.

"Here, take this!" Han Cuiyin took out two large jars. "Keep these with you. If you have a relapse, apply them immediately. If I hadn't arrived in time this time, you would have lost your life."

Luo Jingqian smiled, said nothing, and put the two jars into his storage bag. "Cuiyin is so thoughtful. She even prepared the cold pool water for me."

Han Cuiyin buried her head in drinking chicken soup and eating chicken meat, without arguing. In fact, she had prepared this for herself.

She only discovered the changes in the Cold Pool after she left the pass, and the little silver fish were also different from before.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have transferred some of these things into her space.

However, after she poured these things into the spiritual spring in the space, the little silver fish became no different from ordinary fish.

Later, they could only set aside a small space in the room, make simple arrangements to hold the water from the cold pond, and raise small silver fish there.

However, it's not flowing water, so it's hard to know how things will change later.

She kept this a secret, and even Geng Rui, who was recuperating in the pool, didn't notice.

"Cuiyin, have you noticed anything different?" Luo Jingqian picked up a fried small silver fish. "I haven't had one for a while. It feels like there's some gas churning around in my body after I eat it!"

Han Cuiyin loved this dish the most, and Luo Jingqian remembered it and prepared it for her every time, while he rarely ate it himself.

If he hadn't been having dinner with her, he wouldn't have noticed anything different today.

"I had a feeling when I came out of the pass a few days ago, but I wasn't sure." Han Cuiyin finished her bowl of thick soup and ate all the small silver fish.

If her body hadn't been so exhausted and showing signs of collapse, she wouldn't have been able to be sure it was the little silver fish that caused the problem.

She had previously thought that her improved cultivation level had led to her improved physique, never expecting that the small silver fish also had an effect.

Since its completion, the Grand Princess's family has visited the villa on Qingshuang Mountain several times a year, and the silver fish are not often served at the dinner table.

Although Luo Jingqian spent a considerable amount of time at Qingshuang Mountain, he actually preferred vegetarian food and only occasionally ate meat.

It's normal that we haven't discovered the secret behind it.

"This little silver fish has some magical properties now. Eating it can strengthen the body, which is extremely useful for cultivators." Han Cuiyin patted her belly, her whole body glowing.

The stinging pain in my body finally disappeared.

"Useful to you?" Luo Jingqian keenly grasped the problem in the words. "You've encountered difficulties in your cultivation?"

During their cultivation at Qingshuang Mountain, the two underwent two marrow cleansing processes, so their bodies should have been much stronger than before.

"Well, now that things are settled here, I need to find some methods to strengthen my body." Han Cuiyin didn't specify what she needed to do, only saying that she wanted to strengthen her body.

She didn't want anyone to know about her health condition.

If the body refinement progresses faster, the sea of ​​consciousness might be able to open, and the divine sense could also be used.

"A method for body tempering? Why don't you go and cultivate in the Longevity Diagram?" Luo Jingqian asked with some concern. "Perhaps it can solve your problem."

The Longevity Diagram is a treasure of Fuguang Mountain, and in principle, only those who are disciples of the sect are allowed to enter.

However, since the Longevity Scroll had a connection with Han Cuiyin, Luo Jingqian didn't have too many concerns.

Moreover, the lineage she possesses is several times stronger than that of Fuguang.

"No need, I have a place to cultivate in seclusion." Han Cuiyin lowered her eyes and didn't say anything more, then changed the subject, "What did you get out of that person and demon? Did the Meng family say anything useful?"

She wanted to help Princess Changyun resolve the matter so she could go to the central area of ​​the Pinglian Mountains.

She wasn't worried about her adoptive father and uncle's safety; with her adoptive father around, they would be fine. The latest divination also indicated that they would escape danger, though they would be trapped and unable to get out; their lives were not in immediate danger.

With the protection of Jinghe and the Grand Princess, she could send back feedback without affecting her peace of mind.

“The Meng family hasn’t arrived in Changxing County yet, and Meng Zhiping hasn’t spoken. I originally wanted to use torture, but my mother said to let him go hungry for a few meals first, and if he still doesn’t speak, then I can take action.” Luo Jingqian had no choice but to let his mother have her way.

After Qingshan recounted what had happened that day, he realized that his mother was not a weak woman, and that what his grandmother had said was true.
