Chapter 230 A Chance Encounter
The current empress was once a female general and had fought alongside the emperor on the battlefield.

Due to an accident, she jumped into a freezing deep pool to save the current emperor, and subsequently lost her fertility.

On the first day of every month, the Empress would go to Yuanjue Temple in the back mountain to burn incense and pray for her to conceive.

When the retired emperor passed the throne to the current emperor, the current emperor was only fifteen years old. Now the emperor is thirty years old and also longs for a child of his own.

The Empress and the Emperor were childhood sweethearts. Before the Empress gave birth to a legitimate son, the Emperor resolutely refused to touch any of the women in the harem.

No matter how many memorials were submitted by the court officials, the emperor remained unmoved.

Fifteen years have passed, and not a single child has been born in the harem.

The emperor also wanted to find disciples of the Holy Physician Sect to help treat the empress, but unfortunately, it was very difficult to find people from the Holy Physician Sect.

Lu Yaoyao used to come to the back mountain to find something to eat, so she often encountered the Empress's procession passing by.

They also knew the pattern of the Empress's visits to Yuanjue Temple.

Her purpose in coming to the back mountain was to wait for the Empress to fall into her trap and use her identity as the head of the Holy Physician Sect to treat her illness.

If you want to get revenge on those people, you'll need a powerful backer.

The current emperor and empress are excellent backers.

Since she can't easily use her divine power in this world right now, she should just be an ordinary person for now.

After her Five Elements Technique reached level 200, the spiritual energy within her body had been transformed into divine power, which could not be easily used in such an ordinary interface.

Otherwise, the whole world would be doomed!
Lu Yaoyao carried a basket on her back, filled with various herbs, pretending that she had just come down from the mountain.

He was eating a chicken leg as he walked.

The Queen's carriage was also approaching from a distance.

The two sides walked to opposite each other.

"Who goes there? Get out of the way!"

The leading man was tall and handsome, dressed in a black robe with a qilin pattern, and sat on a tall horse.

This person is the Empress's younger brother, and also the current commander of the Imperial Guards and the supervisor of the Six Ministries, Dijiang.

When Lu Yaoyao saw Dijiang, she raised an eyebrow. This kid actually ran away from the underworld to keep her company?

Dijiang offered to come to the demon realm to accompany her, but she refused at the time.

I didn't expect that kid would still come out.

Dijiang is the King of the Underworld and cannot leave the demon race. In order to come out and help her, he is willing to reincarnate and undergo tribulations.

It was really hard for him.

Now I'm just an ordinary person.

At this moment, Dijiang did not recognize Baihu Yaoyao, and his sharp eyes were fixed on the woman opposite him.

When Di Jiang met the woman's long, alluring eyes, he couldn't help but tremble.

The woman in front of him looked extremely thin and frail, dressed in tattered clothes, and her face was covered in dust. She was clearly an unattractive woman.

This unassuming woman's eyes made his heart, which had been calm for twenty-five years, pound wildly.

Dijiang frowned and clutched his chest. What was this feeling all about?

His mind was screaming, "I want this woman!"
Lu Yaoyao met Shangdi Jiang's gaze, her beautiful lips curving slightly upward. "I was just passing by on my way to gather herbs in the mountains."

As he said that, he was about to leave.

The jade pendant at her waist swayed as she walked.

"Wait!"

Dijiang jumped off his horse and blocked Lu Yaoyao's path.

"What?" Lu Yaoyao stopped.

Looking at Dijiang across from her, she found it amusing. This guy didn't even know her yet; she'd see how she got him eventually.

This kind of Dijiang is quite fun.

Dijiang stopped her and then saw the waist tag hanging on her waist. He was completely certain that it was the waist tag of the Holy Physician Sect.

At the same time, I became more vigilant.

"Are you from the Holy Physician Sect?" Di Jiang asked.

It is said that the Holy Physician Sect is very mysterious, possessing not only miraculous medical skills that can bring the dead back to life, but also profound arts.

They had been searching for the people of the Holy Healer Sect for a long time without success, but now they had unexpectedly encountered them here. He couldn't believe there wasn't some conspiracy involved.

There are no coincidences in the world, only premeditation.

Lu Yaoyao raised an eyebrow. Oh! This kid has become suspicious since he became a mortal.

"Oh? Is something wrong?" Lu Yaoyao took another bite of her chicken leg. She was the sect leader of the Holy Healer Sect; there was nothing to hide.

Then he took another bite of the chicken leg.

She dealt with those old women and then went to the back mountain to wait for them to come to her. She hadn't even had a proper meal yet!

She's starving now.

Dijiang watched her munching on a chicken leg, her mouth greasy and with bits of meat still at the corners of her lips.

His first reaction wasn't disgust, but rather a desire to reach out and wipe away the bits of meat.

Dijiang suddenly realized with a start, how could he have had such a thought?
Has the woman in front of him cast a spell on him?

"Since you are from the Holy Physician Sect, may I ask you to treat my illness, young lady?" Di Jiang suppressed his irritation; business was more important.

Lu Yaoyao nodded, "Sure! The Holy Physician Sect has its own rules for treating illnesses. Poor people don't pay a penny for treatment, while rich people pay 1,000 taels of gold for a house call and 10,000 taels of gold for treatment. If you want a cure, it will cost 50,000 taels of gold. Don't be fooled by the high price; the medicine will definitely cure you. I can even cure your chronic illnesses."

"Judging from your appearance, you must be rich. You'll pay for treatment! Hand over 50,000 taels of gold!"

Lu Yaoyao reached out her hand.

This rule wasn't originally part of the Holy Healer Sect; she added it on the spot.

Di Jiang's lips twitched. Was the Holy Physician Sect a place to heal the sick and save lives, or a place to make money?

"Sure! As long as you cure the patient, I will offer you 50,000 taels of gold."

The palace is not short of money; it can afford to come up with this amount.

Lu Yaoyao threw away the chicken bone in her hand, "Take me to see the patient!"

"Come with me." Dijiang led her to the carriage.

"Your Majesty, this is someone from the Holy Physician Sect. They can help you cure your illness."

He didn't know why, but he inexplicably believed the woman.

The nanny beside the Empress lifted the curtain and saw a little girl standing in front of the carriage.

The Empress trusted her younger brother and said, "Then let's go to Yuanjue Temple together."

The convoy continued on its way and soon arrived at Yuanjue Temple.

Once inside the room, Lu Yaoyao knew what illness she had without even taking her pulse.

"Your illness is easy to cure; just take this and you'll be fine."

Lu Yaoyao didn't even look at it before taking out a pill.

Given the skill level of the doctors here, the Empress's illness is truly incurable.

Even her master, the Holy Physician Sect Master, couldn't cure her.

"This?" The old woman tried to stop her.

The Empress's diet had to be strictly inspected; she could not eat whatever she wanted.

The Queen waved her hand, "I believe her."

The pill was transparent, and inside was a pink peach blossom.

"Young lady, your medicine is quite unique."

He then swallowed the pill.

The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, and a warm current flowed through her body.

The Empress was pleasantly surprised. "My lady, I can feel my whole body getting warm. It's been ten years since I've felt this warm."

Ever since she saved the emperor, she has been invaded by cold air, and she can't feel any warmth in her body, whether it's winter or summer.

She was like a living dead person, living for a full ten years.

Now she can finally feel the warmth again.

"Now it's all good. You can have as many children as you want in the future. Give this pill to your husband, otherwise you still won't have any children."

The emperor had also fallen into a cold pool, so naturally a lot of cold air entered his body, and it was not the woman's fault that he could not have children for many years.

The Empress accepted the pills without a second thought; no one knew the Emperor's health better than her.

"Thank you very much, girl."

"I've heard that you're from the Holy Physician Sect. Would you be willing to come to the palace with me and become a female physician?"

In addition to the imperial physicians, there were also female physicians in the palace.

However, those female doctors have limited medical skills. If she gets pregnant in the future, she can ask this girl to help her with her health.
