The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 475 Warm Moments (Two in One)

But it is of no use for Ling Yuke to know this, or it is of no use at this stage.

Anyway, Wen Xuanning is still imprisoned in the Dali Temple.

While the family was reuniting at the Minister of Works' residence, eating home-cooked meals prepared by the Minister and his wife, which tasted as bad as ever, Wen Xuanning was also eating the inedible prison food.

He now had nothing but a thin piece of clothing, and therefore, there was no longer the voice that had been chattering in his ears.

"It's a quiet time."

He laughed at himself, trying to find joy in the midst of adversity.

The prison meal he got today was the Dali Temple meal, which was the dish he hated the most, fried radish with pork lard, served with a bowl of white rice and a small plate of pickles.

But the slight taste of meat is quite good, much better than the pickled vegetables and white porridge at noon.

Because his cultivation was locked by the restrictions of the Dali Temple, he regained his mortal body and felt the taste of hunger again.

Most of the time these days, I was hungry.

But Wen Xuanning's mentality is still relatively calm.

When he was still Wen Zhiliang, going to jail was a common occurrence.

Sometimes he would be thrown into prison if he had a disagreement with the previous emperor, but most of the time he was just threatened, fed a few rotten meals, and then released soon.

The longest time was only half a year.

The reason that time... was that he opposed sending Princess Yongning to Mobei.

He thought, as a great country, why should it bow to Mobei and send the princess as a hostage?
Of course, the late emperor was furious and had him put in solitary confinement.

When he came out, Princess Yongning was already in Mobei, and the matter was done.

It was also at that time that he realized that the late emperor no longer wanted to be part of the dragon vein and had other pursuits.

He just couldn't see through it.

Then, he also felt that he could pursue something else.

Something higher and farther.

At this time, footsteps and the sound of a skirt being dragged were heard outside.

Wen Xuanning smiled slightly, knowing who was coming.

Sure enough, the cell door opened, and a woman as noble and bright as a peony flower appeared, holding a food box in her hand.

As soon as she saw Wen Xuanning, her eyes suddenly turned red.

The jailer behind him whispered, "Princess, please forgive me. His Majesty said that he can only give you half an hour."

"Okay, got it. You can leave first." The eldest princess calmly said, calmly.

The jailer retreated obediently, but did not go far. He just stood guard outside.

The eldest princess' tears then flowed out, and she hugged Wen Xuanning, crying inconsolably.

"Xuan Ning, my poor child..."

Wenxuan quietly let her hold him, smelling the fragrance on her body, but there was no ripple in his heart.

The princess held him for a long time before letting him go. She looked at his face carefully and sighed, "Oh, you've really lost weight."

Looking at the half-eaten meal on the ground, she frowned and felt distressed: "How could these people feed my son this kind of food?"

After that, he opened the lunch box and took out roast chicken, braised pork, fried wild rice with pork, moonlight on the lotus pond, a bowl of loofah soup, and white rice as white as pearls.

The food box is also a special thermal insulation device, so the food is still hot.

But the eldest princess was still not satisfied and said, "I was examined by them for a long time just now, and I am a little cold."

"Eat it while it's hot." She put the chopsticks in Wen Xuanning's hand and urged him.

Wen Xuanning looked at the eldest princess, feeling her sincere concern, smiled faintly, but did not pick up his chopsticks.

"Mom, I want to ask you a favor."

"Eat first, and we can talk after you finish eating." The eldest princess knew that her son had not had a full meal in the past few days, so she was naturally worried.

Wen Xuanning shook his head: "No, this matter is important."

"Tell me, what's going on?" The eldest princess had to soften her tone and asked patiently.

"I have a personal item, a ring, which was my grandfather's legacy. It was taken away when he was imprisoned. I want you to get it for me..." Wen Xuanning said, a little hesitant.

"That's not difficult." The eldest princess nodded.

As a royal noble, he does have these privileges, and it's not something excessive.

Wen Xuanning continued, "Get it for me, and then send it to my father."

After hearing this, the eldest princess's expression suddenly turned cold.

"You know your father and I have been apart for a long time."

"I know." Wen Xuanning nodded obediently.

"So you still want me to do this?" The princess frowned and said, "You will be out in a few days, why rush?"

"It's very important." Wen Xuanning said seriously.

His eyes were fixed on the eldest princess's face, somewhat cold.

The eldest princess felt a chill in her heart when she was looked at. She felt that the look was familiar, yet a little strange.

But Wen Xuanning immediately smiled, and his coldness melted into the innocence of a young boy.

"Mom, just listen to me. My dad is so old-fashioned and upright. If he hadn't seen Grandpa's relics, he probably wouldn't have remembered me, let alone been willing to help me get out as soon as possible."

After hearing this, the princess softened her heart and complained, "Why do you need him? I can help you too..."

"Mom..." Wen Xuanning shook her hand and begged.

Looking at her son's haggard and thin face, the eldest princess' heart was broken, so she had to agree.

What her son said was right. It would be bad for her to interfere too much in government affairs. Perhaps it would be better if the old-fashioned man could help.

Seeing her son finally lower his head to eat, looking like he had been hungry for a long time and wolfing down his food, the eldest princess smiled and touched his head: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

"Well, it's mainly because the food my mother cooks is so delicious." Wen Xuanning smiled innocently.

The eldest princess was even happier.

"When you come out, mother will cook you a meal."

"it is good."

After the meal, they chatted for a few minutes, and the warm but short mother-son reunion moment ended.

Before leaving, the princess left a message: "Don't worry, you will be out soon, and it won't delay anything."

Wen Xuanning nodded and watched the princess leave.

The cell door closed and darkness fell again.

Although Wen Xuanning didn't really care much about food, he was still happy to have a full meal.

Lying on the soft bed, covered with the quilt that the eldest princess had just changed for him, Wen Xuanning rubbed a certain spot on his knuckles.

There's something missing there.

But it doesn't matter, it will be back in his hands soon.

and……

So what if he's in jail?
Everything has been arranged.

Although Wen Xuanning had lost his spiritual power, he could still feel the power of faith surging from somewhere.

But they are still very sparse, increasing little by little, and not yet a big deal.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and the non-existent ring on his hand turned round and round...

……

After the family dinner, Liu Sheng returned to the Academy in the cloud sedan chair arranged by Ling Fu.

But Ling Yuke was left at home.

"Dad, why don't you let me go with Sister Liu Sheng? I have to go to school early tomorrow morning!" Ling Yuke asked in confusion.

The two of them were sitting together in the weapon refining room, facing each other.

It seemed as if she had returned to the time when she was a child and was learning how to refine weapons with her father, but now Ling Fu's face no longer had the ease it once had, and the atmosphere was not as warm as before.

Ling Fu suddenly sighed. "Do you think... you can still go to school?"

This sentence was incomprehensible, but Ling Yuke understood it.

She looked at her father's face and felt something was wrong.

Then she saw her father take something out from behind him.

It was an extremely sophisticated strange aura detector, which was flashing red light.

And pointed in her direction.

"Dad, you already know?"

There was a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in Ling Yuke's voice.

She had an urge to escape from this conversation by escaping into the past.

But after thinking about it, I decided to stay here.

Ling Fu looked solemn and his eyes were deep: "How long are you going to keep this secret from me?"

Ling Yuke shook her head and said sadly: "I don't know, I don't want to hide it from you..."

"But I don't know how to say it."

She hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Mom... do you know?"

Ling Fu shook his head and sighed, "Don't let her know for now."

Ling Yuke nodded silently. She thought so too. If Du Yue'e knew, she would definitely collapse.

"If you still go to the National Academy, you might be discovered at any time."

Ling Fu looked at his daughter, his tone was not harsh but unquestionable.

"So... you should just stay at home."

Seeing Ling Yuke was a little disappointed, Ling Fu pretended to smile and said, "Don't you want to go to Hong Fu Tang to help? Recently, Hong Fu Tang has assigned some of its staff to do other big orders, and they just happen to need manpower. You can help for a while."

Ling Yuke originally thought about not being able to go to the National Academy to meet those new friends and Sister Liu Sheng, but she also knew that what her father said was right, and she felt a little sad.

When I heard what my father said, I immediately became happy again.

"Okay!" She nodded and agreed hurriedly, "I will work hard and won't let Dad down!"

"That's good." Ling Fu said, then stood up to leave.

Ling Yuke watched her father slowly stand up and walk out of the weapon refining room. She suddenly felt that she seemed to have aged a lot. Her once upright figure was now somewhat hunched.

I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Before Ling Fu left, he suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "You...what exactly is that ability?"

Ling Yuke was slightly stunned and said, "It seems... I can go to the future, or go back to the past."

After hearing this, Ling Fu's pupils suddenly contracted and his expression instantly became extremely solemn.

He never thought that such a terrifying ability would appear in his daughter.

What if those people knew...

He couldn't imagine it at all.

With such a heavy heart, Ling Fu silently imposed many restrictions on his daughter's yard.

She must not be allowed to leave here.

Ling Fu made up his mind silently, then walked back to his courtyard in a restless mood.

Du Yue'e had just finished washing up. Seeing that he looked distracted, she asked curiously, "What happened? What did you talk about with Yu Ke?"

"Is it that guy surnamed Wen again?" She raised her eyebrows, and immediately became angry. "Is she still thinking about him? He is a murderer, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Ling Fu shook his head, but couldn't help but correct him: "You didn't see him kill anyone, you only saw him being arrested."

"In short, it must be right!" Du Yue'e disagreed, her tone full of contempt, "Who in the capital doesn't know about this now? It's just that it didn't spread everywhere for the sake of Prime Minister Wen and that nobleman. It's already been talked about a lot in private."

"He was just having several affairs at the same time, and was discovered by Miss Lu, so she got angry and killed someone!"

"It is said that Miss Lu was probably the same. He happened to be in Qinghe at that time. Isn't this a coincidence?"

Ling Fu, however, had no interest in listening to Du Yue'e's rumors and gossip.

Wen Xuanning knew very well that even if he killed someone, nothing would happen to him.

What's more, there is no evidence yet.

His mind was still revolving around Ling Yuke's amazing abilities.

Seeing that Ling Fu ignored her, Du Yue'e became more and more anxious. She stood up and went to find Ling Yuke: "No, I have to ask her!"

But he was grabbed by Ling Fu.

"She just rested, don't bother her."

"She's been in a bad mood recently, so I told her not to go to the National Academy and just stay at home to relax." Ling Fu said seriously, "In short, if you want her not to join in the fun, it's best not to let her step out of the yard!"

Du Yue'e had never seen Ling Fu look so serious before. She was so shocked that she was speechless for a moment and could only nod in agreement.

She knew there must be something she didn't know.

But she also knew Ling Fu's character. He would never say a word about anything he didn't want to say.

I felt a slight warmth on my shoulder; it was Ling Fu's hand.

"Don't worry, our daughter will be safe, I promise." Ling Fu said seriously.

Du Yue'e only regarded this sentence as a comfort. Now the world is changing and everything is uncertain, but she still accepted it.

"Okay." She nodded in response.

……

At night, Ling Yuke complained to Liu Sheng that she couldn't go to school recently. Liu Sheng was moved and comforted her.

It’s time to put the next plan on the table.

On the second day, after Liu Sheng finished his morning class, he decisively called a senior crane and went straight to Xishan Hall in Meiyuanzheng.

In fact, she was not sure whether Meiyuan was there or not, but she thought that time waited for no one, so she had to make the next move quickly.

Fortunately, Meiyuan is still there today.

"You came at the right time. If you had come a day later, I would not be here." Mei Yuanzheng said with a smile.

"Where are you going?" Liu Sheng asked curiously.

"I'm going to the Snow Mountain." Mei Yuanzheng stroked his beard and said with a smile, "But don't worry, I won't miss your first dormitory entrance examination."

Liu Sheng didn't expect that Meiyuan would be gone for so long.

She was full of curiosity about the snow mountain and couldn't help asking, "I wonder what Yuan Zheng is doing in the snow mountain?"

"Are you going fishing?"

Liu Sheng looked doubtful.

Mei Yuanzheng laughed and said, "This is certainly one of the purposes, but the official purpose is to attend the training conference."

"Training conference?" Liu Sheng asked in surprise.

"Yes, there is one every March and August, which brings together talented researchers from various countries to discuss the latest research results." Mei Yuanzheng said, "It's a pity that you haven't become a researcher yet, so you can't participate."

Liu Sheng nodded slightly.

I see……

However, although I am not eligible to participate now, I believe I will be eligible soon.

"But speaking of it, it is because of you that our Tang country's trainees can finally shine at the training conference!" Mei Yuanzheng laughed happily, "In the past, those high-minded trainees on the snowy mountain always looked down on those who were training below the mountain. Now, they can open their eyes!"

"Are you planning to take that new article with you?" Liu Sheng said suddenly.

"That's right." Mei Yuanzheng smiled proudly, "This is our latest research result. I'm sure it will surprise many people."

"More importantly, if the four countries conduct experiments together, I think the efficiency will be much higher and it will help many people."

After chatting, Mei Yuanzheng turned to ask Liu Sheng why he came.

Liu Sheng straightened his expression, bowed, and said, "I have something that I would like to place in the National Academy to facilitate learning."

Mei Yuanzheng raised his eyebrows and became interested.

"Oh? Let's talk about it."
