Chapter 234 People with the Destiny of an Emperor
Dongfang Jin didn't know what to say. She was a little nervous. The Emperor! The real Emperor!
Although he wasn't wearing that dragon robe with multiple claws, his aura clearly indicated that he was a seasoned leader.
"Well, I just heard from Long Er when he was drunk that Her Majesty the Empress was ill. Don't I have some pills left by my master here?"
I don't know if it will work, but I brought it over anyway. However, you can ask Her Majesty the Empress not to eat it yet.
I just finished a tour of the capital and found six critically ill people. I have given each of them one pill.
If they are free tomorrow, or if they are free in a couple of days, then you may give it to Her Majesty the Empress.
After listening to her words, Cang Lingyuan paid no attention to Long Er's words; his focus was entirely on the pills.
My heart aches terribly; six pills! What a waste!
It should be noted that elixirs have been extinct for a thousand years. Even during the height of the Cang Sheng Kingdom's power, the imperial palace treasure vault contained only one elixir.
It was heavily guarded back then, and she just gave him six at once! His heart! What a spendthrift! What a spendthrift!
Looking at Emperor Shengde's changing expressions, Dongfang Jin was puzzled. Weren't ancient emperors always calm and composed, never showing their emotions?
Why does this person wear their emotions on their sleeve? No wonder they've managed to govern this country so poorly.
Thinking about it, he wasn't nervous anymore. He took the box he had prepared in advance out of his backpack and handed it to Long Yi.
Long Yi took it without any suspicion, and upon closer inspection, he noticed that the hand holding the box was still trembling slightly.
"Ruyi, are you alright? Should we leave?"
The atmosphere was a bit oppressive, making Dongfang Jin feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Ruyi, inside the space, withdrew her gaze from Cang Lingyuan, somewhat anxious, and tried to divert Dongfang Jin's attention.
[Jin Jie'er, stay calm. This emperor isn't bad. Let's see what he says later.]
Do you see? The table in the Empress's bedchamber is covered with food that you sent.
And that Lock & Lock glass lunchbox—this queen actually used it to store her earrings.
Why don't you give her something else, like the small silver-handled mirror on your vanity, or your jewelry box?
It has finally found its rightful owner, but it cannot let its master leave. To save the fate of this world, it still needs someone with the destiny of an emperor.
With such a destiny, and the help of a patron, an emperor could set the world's fortunes in motion within a century.
At that time, it will no longer be confined to the Realm of Wishes, and it will be free. Just thinking about it makes my heart soar.
Unaware of its thoughts, Dongfang Jin asked, "Are you planning to empty my house?"
No, I don't even know if those things can be copied. Look at the Empress's dressing table, how blurry that bronze mirror is.
Why didn't you just say you'd bring her my dressing table?
Sure, let's see if we can copy one too.
While communicating with Ruyi telepathically, Dongfang Jin surveyed the Empress's palace.
It wasn't as extravagant or opulent as depicted on television.
The room was sparsely furnished with various porcelain pieces, some delicate and elegant, others magnificent and grand, all showcasing the craftsman's superb skills and ultimate pursuit of beauty. There was nothing else.
To be honest, before Qian Duoduo's coming-of-age ceremony, the villa that Grandpa Qian gave her was luxurious.
In comparison, this palace seems rather poor and shabby.
However, the antique furniture is quite unique, and a faint fragrance permeates the air. Intertwined with the pervasive artistic atmosphere of the palace, it creates a dignified yet warm ambiance.
The arrangement of the furniture, along with the sparse furnishings throughout the palace, conveys a sense of imperial dignity and majesty, while also showcasing humanity's boundless yearning for beauty and creativity, leaving one in awe.
There are too few decorations, but they are all high-quality items. Compared to other things, it doesn't feel so shabby.
As she continued to scan the palace with her eyes, Long Yi opened the box and presented it to his master.
The expressions on Dongfang Jin's face as he looked around the entire palace were also observed by Emperor Shengde, Cang Lingyuan, and the Empress.
Looking into her eyes, I saw surprise, disdain, disappointment, understanding, and a nod; each expression was fleeting.
This greatly surprised Cang Lingyuan and the Empress, as some of the items in the Empress's palace were even more exquisite than those in his Taihe Hall.
Is that the expression she's wearing?
Cang Lingyuan looked at the box that Long Yi handed over. He and Dongfang Jin had already exchanged gifts using this box twice.
Inside, there was a row of small bottles, all made of some unknown material, filled with clear, transparent water.
There was a porcelain bottle in the corner; it seemed that was the elixir.
However, he ignored everything else and placed the box on the bed.
"Xiao Jin, shall I call you that from now on?"
Dongfang Jin was somewhat flattered and nodded: "Okay, it's just a name."
He thought to himself, "As long as you don't kill me, I can talk whatever I want."
Seeing her like this, Cang Lingyuan chuckled and asked, "That's good. Xiao Jin, what's in this bottle? Water?"
Dongfang Jin nodded and then shook his head: "This is Five Elements Spring Water. The bottom of each bottle has the name of the person who will take it."
When Cang Lingyuan heard her say that, he casually picked up a bottle. As soon as he touched the bottle, he noticed it was soft. He suppressed his doubts and decided to ask her about it later.
Turn the bottle upside down and you'll see a piece of paper stuck to the bottom with a line of small writing on it, written with some kind of pen.
Blue: Suitable for people who are chronically ill or weak. Long-term consumption can change their constitution and replenish their innate energy.
After reading it, Cang Lingyuan suppressed the turmoil in his heart and picked up another bottle with both hands.
The one on the left is green: it has the effect of detoxification and wound repair.
Right Hand Gold: Suitable for martial artists to drink. Long-term consumption can not only stabilize cultivation but also enhance it.
He put down the bottle and picked up two more. One bottle was yellow: suitable for women who have just given birth and the elderly.
"Hiss," Cang Lingyuan gasped, picked up the last bottle, the last bottle was red: it could cure all cold-related illnesses.
Cang Lingyuan gasped aloud, then stood up excitedly, staring at Dongfang Jin and saying, "This...this...is...this is the Five Elements Spring?"
Dongfang Jin nodded, thinking to herself, "Is it really necessary to get so excited?"
That's you; to him, these things are incredibly precious.
He was in a position of power; strength and longevity were things he pursued.
What should we do then? What should we say?
Let's wait and see what he says.
Looking at the couple's expressions, which were like a palette of colors, Dongfang Jin was truly at a loss for words.
She had already drunk from each one and didn't feel anything, and she drank the most from the big red bowl.
However, the pain during her periods each month is getting less and less each time, and she hasn't noticed anything else.
Ruyi listened to her heartfelt words and was utterly speechless.
In other words, if she said that, it was certain that if she dared to say it aloud, it would attract a lot of jealousy and hatred.
Not ganging up on them is already a relief. Tell me, are you physically as strong as these people?
Putting everything else aside, the cultivation method you practice is something only cultivators can practice, not the martial arts manuals of ordinary martial artists.
However, it cannot speak or explain, because this master has no spiritual root and cannot cultivate.
Saying it might backfire, and you might end up losing more than you gain; that's when it will be the one who suffers.
If she had possessed spiritual roots back then, coupled with the blessing of the Five Elements Spring, she would probably be an invincible being in the world now.
However, she is now invincible.
Cang Lingyuan slowly sat down, calmed himself down, and looked at Dongfang Jin: "You..."
Dongfang Jin knew exactly what he wanted to ask, and said directly, "Your Majesty, can we speak frankly?"
