"Miss, Miss, are you alright? How did it go?" The moment Xuanyuan Qingjue disappeared, the strong pressure around him disappeared as well. Qing 'er could feel that she could move now. Therefore, he quickly walked to the extremely weak Miss Zhang Zixun and asked worriedly. The entire street was in ruins because of the battle just now. Qing 'Er was also worried about how to explain it. Fortunately, it was already night time. It was the custom of the Ziyue Kingdom that very few people went out at night. Otherwise, he really did not know how to explain it.
"Qing `er, I'm fine. It's just that the magic power in my body has been overused and I'm a little tired. Now I finally understand why Taishang Laojun had repeatedly warned me not to casually use magic power. It turns out that using magic power in this world will cause such great damage to the body.”Zhang Zixun weakly leaned on Qing 'er's shoulder and said. At this moment, her face was pale and bloodless. If a stranger saw her now, he would definitely think that she had seen a ghost!
"Miss, how are you? Can you still walk?" Qing 'Er used all her strength to support Zhang Zixun. It was already very late, so she had to go home quickly. Otherwise, she did not know how angry Old Master would be!
"I'm fine. I can still walk." Zhang Zixun said weakly. Before she could finish her sentence, she had already fainted in Qing 'Er's arms, unconscious.
"Miss, Miss, how are you? Wake up!" This time, she was at a loss. She was just an ordinary person now. How could she have the strength to help Zhang Zixun back alone? She looked around and saw that there was no one around.
"What should we do? If I had known earlier, I would have stopped you and not let you come out.”Qing 'Er was extremely regretful now. Just as she was in a dilemma, a fire suddenly appeared in front of her. It seemed like someone was walking over with a torch. Qing 'Er was overjoyed and was about to call for their help, but she thought about it again."What if they are bad people too? I'm only a mortal now, and Miss is unconscious. What if they have ill intentions?”Qing 'Er thought about this and felt that she didn't know whether to call him or not.
"Xun Er. Aroma. Where are you!"
"Miss, Miss Xun Er, where are you? Miss Qing `er, Miss Qing` er." Qing 'Er was overjoyed when she heard this. It turned out that Old Master had sent someone to look for Miss and her. From the sound just now, Old Master had actually come personally!
"Master, we're here! Master." The Green Girl shouted. "Master, it seems to be Miss Qing 'er's voice coming from over there."”A servant pointed to the front of him and said to Premier Zhang.
"Let's go." Premier Zhang ordered. In a short while, a group of servants from the Zhang Residence arrived at the entrance of the Talent-Gathering Inn. The one leading them was the Prime Minister of the Ziyue Kingdom, Zhang Heng. The Sage Gathering Inn was in a mess, including its surroundings. The owner and his son had fainted from the battle just now. Qing 'Er and the unconscious Miss Zhang Zixun were standing on the street. Premier Zhang immediately saw his daughter lying in Qing 'er's arms. He rushed forward and took Zhang Zixun from her. Seeing that she was unconscious, Old Master Zhang's face was filled with worry and heartache, but he was more puzzled."Tell me, what happened to Miss?" Old Master Zhang looked up at Qing 'Er. The sharpness and majesty in his eyes made Qing' Er lower her head guiltily.
"Speak!" Old Master Zhang suddenly shouted, scaring Qing 'Er so much that she couldn't help trembling. Zhang Heng was also very anxious. Although he was usually a tight-lipped person, he seemed to have changed into a different person when it came to his daughter. What he wanted to know the most was why Zhang Zixun was like this. He was fine when he went out in the morning, but now it suddenly became like this. At this moment, a man who was good at observing said,"Old Master, don't worry. This servant saw that there seemed to be a fight here. Young Lady's coma must be related to this. Right now, the young miss needs to rest and recuperate. We should return to the residence first.”Zhang Heng calmed down and nodded. He felt that this was not unreasonable, so he said,"Return to the residence immediately! Qing 'er, no matter what relationship you have with Xun' er, if you don't give this old man a reasonable explanation today, I won't let you off!”As he spoke, he took the lead and carried his daughter to the Prime Minister's residence. Why did the Prime Minister come out alone and not in a sedan chair? That was because ever since he returned from the palace, the servants had hurriedly reported that the young miss had disappeared. He had summoned all the servants in the residence and searched everywhere regardless of everything. He had no time to care about the status of the Prime Minister. At that moment, he was just a father who wanted to find his daughter. He had already lost it once and did not want to lose it a second time. Moreover, he had to find it before Madam returned. Otherwise, there would be another person to worry about. However, since he did not know where Zhang Zixun would go this time, he could only run around like a headless fly. He found the moon in the middle of the sky.
In the Prime Minister's residence.
"Hurry up and tell me, where did the young miss go? What about Old Master? Is he back? Tell the truth! Otherwise, I'll have your heads fall to the ground!”In the main hall, the Prime Minister's wife, Shen Mengyi, shouted angrily at the dozens of maids who were trembling in fear. When the Prime Minister's wife found out that her daughter had gone missing again, she no longer had her usual demeanor as the Prime Minister's wife. Her face had already turned green with anger. She only had this one precious pearl in her palm. She had already lost it once. She did not want to do it again.
"Madam, please spare my life! We really don't know! Since the day the young miss returned, she only wanted Xin 'er and the young lady called Qing' er to serve her. This morning, Xin 'er accompanied Furen to Ci' an Temple to offer incense, and Old Master was also ordered to enter the palace. Originally, the young miss was still admiring the fish in the back garden. However, after some time, she and Qing 'er had talked for a while, and the two of them had disappeared. The servants at the entrance of the manor also did not see them go out. This servant really doesn't know!" A slightly bolder servant girl said with trepidation.
"Furen, what Xiao Ju said is right. Young miss has indeed changed a lot since she came back and indeed only let this servant and Miss Qing Er take care of her daily life. This servant believes that they really don't know." Standing beside Madam, Xin 'er spoke for Xiao Ju and the others. Hearing this, Madam nodded thoughtfully. As for Xiao Ju, she looked gratefully at Xin 'er who had spoken up for them.
"Then what should we do now?" Madam had no idea what to do and looked at Xin 'er questioningly.
"Let me ask you, did the residence send people out to search?”Xin 'er said this to Xiao Ju.
"This servant only saw that after Old Master returned, he immediately gathered all the servants in the residence and went out. I think he went to find Young Lady.”Hearing this, Madam finally relaxed.
"I hope Master can find it. If it really doesn't work, I will beg the Emperor to mobilize the Imperial Guards to search the entire city.”Madam put her hands together and prayed silently.
"Madam, Madam, Master and the others are back!”A servant hurriedly ran in and reported,""Furen, master and the others have brought miss back.”
"Really? Where are they?" Madam asked excitedly.
"Really, Madam. However, she seemed to be in a coma, as if something had happened.”Hearing this, the smile on Madam's face froze.""What did you say? Where is Miss now?"
"Replying to Furen, Old Master sent Young Lady back to her room.”Before she could finish her sentence, Madam had already ignored her and walked towards Zhang Zixun's boudoir with Xin 'er's support.
"Xun Er, my daughter, what happened to you?”In Zhang Zixun's room, Prime Minister Zhang had already placed her on the bed and called for the official physician to treat her. In the end, it turned out that Miss was just too tired and was not seriously injured. Premier Zhang heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was done with her work, she heard Madam rushing over anxiously. "Daughter, mother has only been away for a day. How did you become like this?!"”The Prime Minister's wife came to the side of the bed and looked at her daughter, who was currently unconscious and had a pale face. Tears of heartache had already fallen.
"Alright, Madam. The doctor has already said that Xun Er is just too weak. She will be fine after resting for a night. Don't worry too much.”Seeing his wife like this, Premier Zhang went up to her and pulled her into his arms to comfort her.
"Really, Master? Why did Xun Er suddenly become like this?”The madam asked. He had been busy with Zhang Zixun's matter and did not pay much attention to it. Now that Shen Mengyi had mentioned it, Premier Zhang immediately turned his gaze to Qing 'er, who had been standing quietly in the corner with a worried expression. In fact, Qing 'Er was feeling the worst right now. She had to think of a good excuse to get over this matter. She couldn't possibly say that the young miss had fallen into a coma because she had exhausted her magic power, right? Putting aside whether Old Master would believe it or not, it would be bad if he treated her as a lunatic and chased her out of the Prime Minister's residence.
"Qing `er!" Premier Zhang suddenly shouted. The former was so frightened that he almost lost his balance. She raised her head with a perturbed mood and indeed met Old Master's angry and dignified eyes. This gaze seemed to be able to see through people, making people not dare to lie.
"Master. It's me."
"Tell me, what's going on?”Premier Zhang pressed forward step by step. In a flash, a thought flashed through Qing 'Er's mind."I'll go all out. Whether you believe it or not, it's just like this!”Having made up her mind, Qing `er took a deep breath and said,"Master, Madam, this is what happened. After the two of you went out today, Miss said that she was bored and asked me to accompany her on the streets. At first, I was worried that Old Master would blame me, so I tried to dissuade him. He said that it was not good for a young lady to show her face on the streets, so he suggested that she stay in the residence. However, Miss was really bored and finally came up with the idea of dressing up as a man. I couldn't argue with him. I thought that since it was a male outfit, I would be back after playing for a while. It should be fine. However, who knew that the later Miss got, the more angry she became. In the end, she met a man in a restaurant called Juxian Inn. The two of them seemed to be very congenial. I couldn't stop them. They talked happily and drank wine. Originally, everything was fine. The sky was getting dark and I had already advised Young Miss to leave. However, who knew that one of that person's enemies would come looking for her and the two of them would have a huge battle. Young Miss was unfortunately affected. Young Miss 'body was originally weak, so how could she withstand the impact of her internal energy? Hence, her blood and qi churned and she fainted. Fortunately, it's not a big deal." The Green Girl said this, but she didn't dare to look at Zhang Heng. She didn't know if this little trick of hers could fool the latter's wisdom as the Prime Minister of a country. Just as he was thinking about this, as expected, Zhang Heng snorted coldly in the next moment."Do you think I'll believe you just because you said that? I am the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, what haven't I experienced? What kind of people had he not seen before? Little girl, just from the way you stuttered when you spoke just now, this old man knew that it definitely wasn't that simple. Tell me, what exactly happened!" Zhang Heng slammed his right hand on the table and shouted angrily. Qing 'Er subconsciously knelt down, not daring to raise her head. She was no longer a high and mighty fairy. With Zhang Heng's power, killing her was as easy as crushing an ant.
"Miss, wake up! Qing 'Er can't hold on anymore. If you don't wake up, you'll be exposed!”Qing Er was extremely anxious.
"Old Master, don't be anxious. You'll scare Xun Er. No matter what, Miss Qing Er is Xun Er's savior. You can't talk about her like this.”Madam pulled the furious Old Master Zhang to the side and comforted him.
"Humph!" Zhang Heng snorted coldly and turned his face to the side without saying anything. Madam walked to Qing 'Er's side and helped her up.""Miss Qing `er, what exactly happened today? You said that you and Xun Er were involved in a fight between two people. Who was the man who was chatting happily with Xun Er? He should know what his surname was, right?”Faced with Madam Zhang's gentle question, Qing 'Er did not know how to respond. She could not tell the truth and say that her daughter was not a human but an immortal. It's not that they are fighting, but your daughter is fighting with someone else. If she really said it, it would be strange if the Grand Supreme Elder did not kill her!
"Madam, what I said is true, but this…”
"Presumptuous! Do you believe that if you don't tell the truth, this old man will kill you right now? This old man is a dignified Prime Minister. No one would dare to say anything if I kill a little girl like you!”Before Qing 'er could finish her words, she heard Zhang Heng standing up abruptly and shouting angrily at her.
"Sigh. You guys are quarreling. What are you arguing about?" At this moment, Qing Er was at a loss. Suddenly, Zhang Zixun, who was lying on the bed, moaned and said weakly. The Green Girl felt much more relaxed.”
"Xun Er, you're awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?" When Mrs. Zhang heard that her daughter had woken up, she immediately went to her side and held her hand. When she saw her mother, Zhang Zixun immediately sat up from the bed and threw herself into her arms."Mother, your daughter is so scared. I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back!”She started crying.
"Oh, be good. There's no need to be afraid, Xun Er. You're back. With the protection of father and mother, there's no need to be afraid.”Seeing her daughter's sad look, Mother Zhang's heart was about to break. She hurriedly hugged Zhang Zixun and comforted her. However, the latter gave Qing 'Er a subtle look. Qing 'Er immediately understood that Miss had done it on purpose. After a while, Zhang Zixun finally stopped crying. "Don't think that you can get away with it by crying and acting coquettishly." Tell me, where did you go today? Why did it become like this? Since you were injured, why did the doctor only say that you were too tired and fainted?”Zhang Zixun knew that she could not get away with this, so she pretended to be pitiful again and said,"Father, mother, I know my mistake. I shouldn't have left home to play. Today, I met a bad person. That man looked gentle, but he was an ungrateful person. When he was in danger, he only cared about himself, so I was injured. Perhaps it was because their martial arts were special, so they could not find anything. Father, I'm already like this. Please let me rest!”Zhang Zixun continued to act coquettishly.
"Alright, alright, Master. No matter what happened, as long as my daughter is fine now, it's fine.”Madam advised.
"Sigh. You." Old Master Zhang sighed." Alright, rest first. We'll talk about it tomorrow."”With that, he turned around. Just when Zhang Zixun thought that she had passed, a native turned around."Oh right, tomorrow is the emperor's celebration of the ninth prince's full moon. The emperor has requested that every daughter of the minister must attend, so you should rest well and enter the palace with father tomorrow.”
"Ah! Can I not go? Look, I'm still sick. How can I go?”Zhang Zixun's mouth was agape as she said helplessly.
"No! This is an imperial edict. Even I can't reject it, let alone you.”After saying that, he left without giving her any leeway. Seeing that Old Master and Madam had left, Qing 'Er immediately relaxed and collapsed to the ground.""Miss, so you heard what I said? Then why are you still pretending to faint? I broke out in a cold sweat! Miss, you woke up a long time ago. Why didn't you get up to explain? You acted so well!"
"You still dare to say that! Is there anyone like you? Pushing everything onto me!" Qing 'Er smiled awkwardly.
It was late at night, but Zhang Zixun couldn't fall asleep at all. The expression on Xuanyuan Qingjue's face when he looked at her at the end kept replaying in her mind. He then looked at the purple Dream Butterfly in his hand. In fact, the moment the latter grabbed her hand, Zhang Zixun also felt that something was not right, but it was very vague."What is it? Also, why was he so agitated in the end? Could it be that this purple butterfly dream had something to do with him? But why didn't he snatch it later? Who is his real identity?" A series of questions popped up in Zhang Zixun's mind, making her very upset.
"Sigh, I still have a difficult problem tomorrow! I don't want to."
