Chapter 208 Imperial Advisor, Helian Shunan

The eldest princess looked at Fang Lingchu now and saw that she had the air of a domineering ruler.

"Yes"

The princess was awestruck by Fang Lingchu's aura and quickly ordered someone to lead the way for her.

They soon arrived at the Emperor's Hall of Diligent Governance.

"Your Majesty, the Princess Protector has arrived."

"Let her in."

"Yes"

Upon entering, Fang Lingchu bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"

"Fairy, rise up!"

Princess Protector of the Nation, also known as Fairy Spirit.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor did not change her title; they were the same anyway.

"What is the purpose of Your Majesty's summons me here?"

General Xia is dead.

"What? How could it be so fast?"

Fang Lingchu was surprised and revealed what she knew.

The emperor merely glanced at her and continued, "He was already at his last gasp."

"Your Majesty, what about the Xia family?"

"Don't worry, I've already arranged for someone to take good care of Xia Ruirui."

"On behalf of Xia Ruirui, I thank Your Majesty."

"I summoned you not for this matter."

The emperor no longer cared about things that already had answers.

"I wonder what Your Majesty has summoned me for?"

"The Third Prince brought back a woman, and that woman wants to see you."

[Guagua, I've been so busy these days that I've completely forgotten about the Third Prince.]

Yes, the mission is 80% complete.

"Where is that girl? I'll go and take a look."

Fang Lingchu was quite excited. She didn't know if Duan Shirui was from her hometown, but she was looking forward to it.

"Wait a moment, I have something else to tell you."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

[Guagua, why is the Emperor suddenly being so polite?]

They probably need something from you!

What could possibly make the emperor so polite?

The emperor listened to their conversation, coughed, and said, "The autumn rain-praying ceremony is coming soon. The Imperial Advisor is unable to come due to other matters. I was thinking of sending you instead. What do you think?"

[What the hell? Guagua, what is His Majesty saying?]

【Host, you've forgotten that in ancient times, people would dress up as priests to pray for good weather and abundant harvests in the coming year during the harvest season!】

What does this have to do with me? Shouldn't it be the emperor and empress who go?

Emperor: You keep saying I'm an unlucky emperor, are you sure about that?

[Forget it, with the emperor's unlucky nature, he'd probably get struck by lightning if he went up there!]

[I have a feeling it will happen. So, host, are you going?]

[Let me think! Oh right, what happened to the Imperial Advisor? I haven't seen him since I started working here.]

Upon hearing this question, the emperor broke out in a cold sweat!

They were afraid that their fabricated reasons would be exposed.

"Chu Chu, this matter is settled. Spend these next few days studying diligently in the palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Fang Lingchu instinctively agreed.

When I came to my senses, I realized I had already agreed.

[Damn, this emperor is so cunning! He took advantage of my distraction to get me to agree.]

[Host, this is actually a good thing for you, after all, your imperial advisor is about to die.]

Why are people dying one after another today?

[Host, he can still be saved, and you must save him]

【why? 】

I don't know, I can't unravel his secret, but my feeling is that you should go and save him.

【knew】

"Your Majesty, where is the Imperial Advisor? I'd like to go see him and learn about the procedures while I'm at it."

"I will have someone take you there." "Your humble servant takes his leave."

After saying that, Fang Lingchu hurriedly walked out.

The emperor was left standing there dumbfounded, never expecting that his accidental intrusion had actually led to the death of the imperial advisor.

"Gao De, do you think I'm really unlucky?!"

The emperor reflected on the first half of his life and realized that nothing good had ever happened.

The crown prince faced many twists and turns, and despite doing so many good deeds after ascending to the throne, the people did not remember his good deeds and called him a tyrant.

His uncles and nephews all wanted this position, so they rebelled and caused trouble.

All of her sons are obsessed with romance; none of them are normal.

So it seems that Fang Lingchu was quite right.

"How could His Majesty be unlucky! So many people, and in the end, wasn't it His Majesty who sat on the throne?"

"You're right, step down."

"Yes, Your Majesty"

Gao was already used to the emperor's sudden ideas.

Fang Lingchu was taken to the Imperial Preceptor's residence, and the system's influence became stronger and stronger.

[Host, hurry, or he'll really die.]

What could I do if I went? I'm not a court physician.

Have you forgotten? One of the colors in your seven-colored flower can save him.

Which color?

Use white.

Okay, I understand.

After taking Fang Lingchu to the place, those people left.

[Guagua, why have they all left?]

[Because the Imperial Preceptor's residence is off-limits to others; no one can stay here without the Emperor's permission.]

【oh oh】

Fang Lingchu opened the door, and there was no one inside, just an empty courtyard.

Aside from a large alchemy furnace and herbs, there were some Taoist items on display.

[Guagua, where is the Imperial Advisor?]

As soon as Fang Lingchu finished speaking, a man who looked like a god walked out from inside.

His long white hair trailed on the ground, he wore a thin green undergarment, his eyes were covered with a white cloth, and his lips were somewhat pale.

Is that Miss Fang?

[Guagua, how did he know I was here?]

[He's the imperial advisor; surely he could predict these things!]

He Lian Shunan heard the conversation between the two and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

His smile instantly outshone all the flowers around him.

[My goodness, Guagua, this imperial advisor looks like a femme fatale, so beautiful!]

Helian Shunan had heard this sentence many times, but hearing it from Fang Lingchu's heart felt different.

His good looks and fair skin are indeed stunning, but if you don't save him soon, he'll die.

【oh oh】

Fang Lingchu quickly went over and said, "His Majesty said I should come and learn the sacrificial procedure from you."

"I know, His Majesty has already sent someone to inform me. Please have a seat, Miss Fang."

"Xiao Li, serve tea."

A wooden puppet carrying a cup of tea appeared in the empty courtyard, swaying leisurely as it approached.

[A puppeteer? I never expected this imperial advisor to be so powerful!]

It's pretty impressive, but it's not what you're imagining.

What's different?

It seems to be somewhat like control; that thing is a bit like a soul.

[Guagua, don't scare me! I'm terrified of things like that!]

[It shouldn't be. Don't be afraid, host. I will protect you.]

【OK】

Fang Lingchu looked at the tea on the table and quickly put the tea leaves into the tea he was drinking.

[Guagua, he probably can't see this!]

Fang Lingchu watched as he slowly picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

They were so nervous they practically poked a hole in the table.

[Host, he can see it.]
