NOVEL NEXT Chapter 16 Asking for elixir again
"No, no, no! I'm tired of hearing this story."
"What?!" Shen Yuan said in surprise, "Princess, are you tired of hearing this story?"
It shouldn’t be. Shouldn’t The Three Strikes of Bone Demons be a story in Journey to the West? This world shouldn't exist!
And I have never told this story to Princess Qianrou, so how did she learn about this story and even get tired of hearing it?
There is only one reason -
In this world, besides myself, there are other time travelers!
"Little princess, you said you are tired of hearing this story. May I ask where did the little princess hear this story?"
"Isn't this the story in Journey to the West?"
"Journey to the West?!"
"Yes, Prime Minister, don't you know? Journey to the West is a book published by Dongyi, and it contains the story of three dozen white-bone spirits."
Dongyi!
Shen Yuan has the key information. Is the other time traveler in Dongyi? Use the knowledge you have before time travel to write strange books like Journey to the West in Dongyi to make money...
Dongyi...could it be Ye Fei?
Before Shen Yuan traveled through time, he had read other works by the author of this book. Although they were all mindless harem novels with a different flavor, they still shared the same world view.
For example, Qin Yang is a story that happened in the Immortal Dynasty of Northern Qi.
As for Ye Fei, the story happened in the Dongyi Immortal Dynasty.
It seems that when I traveled through time, my target was not just Northern Qi...
Ye Fei.
Of course, Ye Feiyuan is now in the Dongyi Immortal Dynasty and does not pose a threat to him for the time being, but he has the information that he is a time traveler.
I am in the dark and he is in the light.
Indeed, Ye Fei is the kind of protagonist who pretends to be a good writer. He traveled through Dongyi and first shocked Dongyi by writing four famous works. Later, when he entered the court, he even drunkenly wrote three hundred poems in the court, which shocked the world. , even Emperor Dongyi looked at him with side eyes!
Although all those poems were plagiarized by him, they were all written by Li Bai, Du Fu, and Su Shi.
"Prime Minister, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad suddenly?"
"Ah, nothing."
Princess Qianrou's words brought Shen Yuan back from his thoughts. There was no need to think so much now. After all, Ye Fei was still far away in Dongyi. If he did not pose a threat to himself, Shen Yuan would not bother to pay attention to him.
But if he becomes his enemy one day, even if you are a time traveler, Shen Yuan will definitely eliminate him.
They are all time travellers, so it depends on who has higher means, and whether life or death depends on their destiny.
"Since the little princess knows this story, let me change it to another one. This story is called 'The Daughter of the Sea'."
"Okay, this is a story I have never heard before!"
……
After telling the story and playing with Princess Qianrou for a while, Shen Yuan went back home.
Not long after Shen Yuan left, the Empress came to Luoxia Palace and hugged Princess Qianrou with a distressed look on her face.
"Qianrou, how are you? Are you feeling better?"
"It's very good. Your Majesty the Prime Minister treated me very well. I had a good sleep."
"That's fine, that's fine..."
The empress finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Although she was reluctant to part with the Holy Pill, Shen Yuan still treated Qianrou properly after taking the pill.
"His Majesty……"
Eunuch Li moved closer.
The empress let go of Qianrou: "Go and play alone for a while first."
"Ok!"
Immediately, the empress turned to Eunuch Li: "What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me. I didn't know this. When the Prime Minister was treating me, he dismissed all the maids and eunuchs."
"Didn't I say that no matter what happens, you have to pay attention to Shen Yuan?"
"But...but the Prime Minister asked the old slave to paste the talisman paper, and also to transmit spiritual power to the talisman paper. Only the old slave could do this at that time...so..."
"That means no one saw Shen Yuan's healing process?"
"There is another person who may know."
"who?"
"Master Zhou Weiping, he was the only one who was called by the Prime Minister to find out about Princess Qianrou."
The empress frowned, thoughtfully.
"Huh, considering Shen Yuan is wise, I gave him the Holy Poaching Pill. If he can't cure Qianrou, let's see what I do with him!"
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much." Eunuch Li quickly comforted him, "The Prime Minister is currently only half-step to the Supreme, and the Holy-breaking Pill is a pill that can only be used by the Supreme after breaking through to the Supreme. And from the Half-Step Supreme to the later stage of the Supreme, old slave I feel that the Prime Minister still needs to practice for a long time..."
"Furthermore, even if the Prime Minister has really reached the late stage of the Supreme, even with the blessing of the Holy Breaking Pill, the Prime Minister's legs... haha, it is still difficult to break through the Supreme."
After hearing Eunuch Li's words and thinking of Shen Yuan's usual limping when walking, the empress's face softened slightly.
"You dare to treat me like this, you deserve to be lame for the rest of your life!" Then, she said in a deep voice, "You ask Zhou Weiping to come see me."
"Yes."
Soon, Dr. Zhou was brought to the empress.
"My minister sees your Majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live, long live."
"No need to be polite, I ask you, what did the Prime Minister come to discuss with you today?"
"You have to answer truthfully..."
Zhou Weiping knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister just asked the official what happened to Princess Qianrou yesterday, and then told the official that after he completes her daily recovery, the official needs to check Princess Qianrou's physical condition and report to the Prime Minister the next day. "
"That's all?"
"I dare not hide anything from Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will tell you clearly!"
Could it be that I really think too much?
The empress waved her hand to signal Zhou Weiping to step back, and then she asked Eunuch Li next to her again.
"What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, the Prime Minister is indeed only considering Princess Qianrou's condition."
"I get angry when I talk about this. Haven't you found the reason why Princess Qianrou's soul was injured yet?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. There really are no clues. Not a single trace was left. The old slave also sensed that there is nothing strange in the entire imperial city."
The empress closed her eyes that were slightly bloodshot due to anger. She had also activated her spiritual consciousness before and sensed the entire imperial city, but even at the supreme level, she did not sense anything abnormal.
Could it be that Qianrou's soul injury really has nothing to do with outsiders, but is it simply malaria in her soul?
"That's all, prepare some gifts and send an envoy to Dongyi to visit the Wanyao Dan Sect. No matter what the cost, you must get me another Sacred Pill."
The Ten Thousand Medicine Pill Sect is recognized by all countries as the pinnacle sect of alchemy. Unfortunately, this sect is not in Northern Qi, but far away in Dongyi.
Fortunately, the relationship between the Northern Qi royal family and the Ten Thousand Medicine Pill Sect is pretty good. If you pay a little price, the Ten Thousand Medicine Pill Sect may still be willing to refine another Saint-breaking Pill for the Northern Qi royal family.
"Yes!"
After Eunuch Li retreated, Empress Yaochi quickly rubbed her temples.
