Chapter 173 The Imperial Advisor of a Female-Dominated Society (Part 19)

Feng Yu arrived very early.

However, she was physically weak and was leaning against Xu Zishan, her eyes filled with longing and infatuation.

She coughed and whispered to Xu Zishan, who was equally stunned, "She seems to be from heaven."

Xu Zishan lowered his eyes and hummed in agreement.

He turned his head slightly, and someone immediately brought him a bowl of medicine. "Your Highness, it's time to drink your medicine."

Feng Yu sighed and resignedly drank the medicine in one gulp.

She wiped her face. "Have they caught the murderer?"

"No." Xu Zishan's throat moved slightly, but he didn't dare to say that Lu Yan hadn't returned since he chased after him that time.

Fortunately, Lu Yan had a low profile, and Feng Yu couldn't remember him for the time being.

"Father, why is she drinking medicine..." A childlike murmur faintly rang out.

Upon hearing the sound, Feng Yu looked over and saw a little girl dressed in formal royal attire nestled in Consort Ru's arms, the latter's captivating gaze fixed upon her—

Their eyes met, but Feng Yu looked away first.

Consort Ru...

She had heard about what was happening in the palace recently, and she never expected that Consort Ru would adopt the eleventh princess.

She had previously wanted to recognize Consort Ru as her father, simply because the latter's status was so enviable. If she succeeded, her plan would be half successful, with the other half depending on the Imperial Advisor.

Now... neither of them remains.

Feng Yu calmed herself down and quietly watched the figure on the stage.

On the other side, Consort Ru patted the Eleventh Princess on the shoulder, "Don't talk nonsense, that's your sister."

The eleventh princess was very obedient. Upon hearing this, she immediately nodded and smiled sweetly, "I understand, Father."

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Consort Ru's eyes. She pinched the eleventh princess's cheek, looked up at the person in the center of the stage, and her smile became even more tender.

On the stage.

As time passed, the blessing ceremony reached its final stage. The sky was cloudless, and Qingyu was bathed in this warmth, experiencing for the first time the significance of the original owner's study of metaphysics.

For all living beings, for all things, and for oneself.

As the ceremony drew to a close, Qingyu was about to perform the final procedures when suddenly a hail of arrows rained down on the Empress.

Everyone was shocked, and the guards rushed forward to defend them, causing the situation to briefly spiral out of control.

Just then, Qingyu lightly touched the ground with her toes and instantly appeared in front of the Empress.

She looked at Feng Yu with deep eyes, then quickly raised her hand and waved her sleeve, creating a barrier that blocked the rain of arrows.

"Protect the Empress back to the palace!" Qingyu announced loudly, and the guards quickly escorted the Empress away.

Amidst the chaos, Consort Ru looked at Qingyu with concern, gritted her teeth, and stepped forward to whisper a word of advice, "Be careful!"

Qingyu ignored him and nodded slightly, gazing into the distance.

Could it be that guy who organized this?

The crowd below was initially a bit flustered, but when they saw how powerful Qingyu was, they couldn't help but feel relieved amidst their astonishment.

Everyone began to slowly back away, except for Ye Huai and Zheng Fengjin, who walked against the crowd towards higher ground.

Ye Huai was filled with anxiety. He was truly afraid that Qingyu would be harmed, and he had to see it with his own eyes.

Just then, several men in black suddenly appeared from the crowd.

Even though Qingyu knew there was danger there, she was still surprised.

"How dare you disrupt the blessing ceremony!" Qingyu's voice was cold, but upon closer listening, there was no anger; instead, it sounded like she was stating a fact.

The leader of the men in black, holding a blade, shouted, "Grand Preceptor, we have no intention of making enemies of you! Please step aside!"

What a joke! This one is someone our master told us to treat well, practically a second master!

Moreover, they came here today for Feng Yu. This Grand Preceptor is unpredictable and cannot be offended!

Qingyu's eyes sharpened, and her red lips parted slightly, "You shouldn't have come."

Isn't it better to be alone in private?

Koichi Haru is utterly foolish.

For a moment, the two sides were deadlocked. The men in black were in a dilemma; they really didn't want to fight Qingyu!

Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Ye Huai and Zheng Fengjin broke through the crowd and arrived.

Ye Huai felt a little scared when she saw the men in black, but when she thought of Qingyu fighting alone, she was suddenly filled with anger and immediately shouted, "Who are you? How dare you attempt an assassination!"

The leader of the men in black snorted coldly and did not reply. He couldn't be bothered with such an unknown person.

Qingyu was quite surprised by Ye Huai's audacity. She raised an eyebrow and suddenly had an idea. She said to the men in black, "If you leave now, I can pretend this never happened. Actually, you are really stupid. You shouldn't have come today."

The men in black hesitated. They were already wary of Qingyu, and now there were other people around.

However, if they return empty-handed, their master will not let them off easily.

Just then, the melodious sound of a flute drifted from afar. Upon hearing the flute, the men in black showed expressions of delight.

A figure slowly approached from afar. The person was tall and wore a black veil, obscuring their face.

But Qingyu recognized him at a glance; it was Gu Zhongchun.

Before she could speak, Gu Zhongchun said, "Grand Preceptor, it's been a long time."

I truly miss you.

He didn't say those words, but looked at the man in black and said, "Continue the operation."

The man in black paused for a moment, glanced at Qingyu, and understood his master's meaning. Without further hesitation, he headed towards Fengyu.

Feng Yu: "...?"

Feng Yu was already weak, and while fleeing, she was worried about Qing Yu and kept looking back. Her steps were unsteady. When she turned her head, she saw several men in black coming towards her. She was so frightened that she stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Xu Zishan, who was beside her, supported her.

"Your Highness, they're after you." Xu Zishan said anxiously, quickening his pace.

Feng Yu's forehead was covered in cold sweat, but at the same time, she strangely breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, it wasn't because of Qingyu.

She was not far from the Queen when the incident happened, so she ran with the Queen when she fled.

At this moment, those men in black were secretly after her, but to many who didn't know the situation, it seemed more like they were after the Empress.

Therefore, many guards rushed forward, but the black-clad men were too skilled in martial arts, and the guards were forced to retreat. As the black-clad men drew closer, Feng Yu couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

Qingyu watched the commotion from afar and subconsciously felt a little displeased.

"You're just asking for trouble." She's the Imperial Advisor and also the Empress's subordinate; it's her duty to save the Empress.

Gu Zhongchun remained calm and composed, his voice filled with pleasure, "No, I didn't kill the Empress."

"You madman!" Ye Huai gritted his teeth and tried to step forward, but was pinned to the ground by Gu Zhongchun's men.

He strained to look up at Qingyu, shouting urgently, "Imperial Preceptor, you must leave! He's a madman!"

Qingyu glanced at him lightly, and thinking of Ye Huai's usefulness, she nodded slightly towards Gu Zhongchun, her eyebrows furrowing slightly, "Let him go."

Gu Zhongchun's smile gradually faded. He stared intently at Ye Huai on the ground for a long time before letting out a sneer, "Indeed, a handsome face. You've got your eye on him?"

He paused, seemingly dejected yet angry, his aura growing colder, his dark eyes so unfathomable that his thoughts were impossible to discern. "But I will listen to you."

Then, with a wave of his hand, Ye Huai was immediately knocked unconscious and thrown aside. Zheng Fengjin, who was standing nearby, was even more cowardly and passed out on his own.

The scene fell silent once again.

A gentle breeze brushed against Qingyu's hair, and as her dark hair fluttered, her eyes seemed to grow even more aloof. Gu Zhongchun gazed at her, his heart overflowing with love.

It's strange, why is this person so attractive to him?

"Do you want me to release them?" His voice was as soft as a breeze.
