Douluo Continent: Reincarnated Dan Heng Drinks the Moon, Gu Yuena Pursues Him

Chapter 105 Ning Fengzhi's Curiosity

"The Decree of Grace!!!"

"Excellent! Excellent! What a brilliant decree of grace! Qinghe, how did you come up with such a brilliant idea?!"

After reading the memorial regarding the decree of grace, Emperor Xueye stood up excitedly, his eyes fixed intently on Xue Qinghe.

Prince Xuexing was startled and looked at Xue Qinghe with a puzzled expression.

What kind of memorial could possibly excite Emperor Xueye so much?

Xue Qinghe was not surprised. It was perfectly reasonable that such a top-level open conspiracy as the Edict of Grace could elicit such a violent reaction!

She smiled, feeling grateful to Danheng, and humbly said:

"Knowing that Father has been worried about this matter, I have been thinking about how I can share your burden. Finally, last night, when I was having trouble sleeping, a sudden inspiration struck me and I came up with this plan."

Xue Qinghe thought to himself: Thank you, Mr. Danheng. I am truly ashamed to have plagiarized your work! I will definitely treat you even better in the future!

"Very good!" Emperor Xueye was even more satisfied.

"All the civil and military officials in the court are no match for my Crown Prince! Qinghe, you are excellent! You have solved a major problem for me! Tell me, Qinghe, what reward do you desire?"

Emperor Xueye asked.

Xue Qinghe cupped his hands and said, "This is to share the burdens of the country and my father. It is what I, as a son and a subject, should do. I dare not accept any reward!"

"How can that be?! Tomorrow, I will let the ministers debate this edict of favor. Wouldn't that humiliate them?!"

The Emperor laughed heartily on the snowy night, becoming more and more delighted as he read the memorials regarding the Edict of Grace.

Prince Xuexing became even more curious, staring longingly at Emperor Xueye.

What kind of memorial could have enabled Xue Qinghe to achieve such great merit?

Even with so many advisors in his own household, none of them could come up with a solution.

Why is it that "Xue Qinghe" can do it?

……

Morning next day.

Prince Snowstar's doubts were resolved.

When the decree of grace was issued, not a single civil or military official raised any objection; they all praised Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention and made a great appearance.

Prince Xuexing stared at Xue Qinghe suspiciously, thinking to himself: Could this guy have secretly detained Mr. Danheng?

Otherwise, how could those retainers of the Crown Prince's residence have come up with such an ingenious plan?

Emperor Xueye did not investigate further. Since it was Xue Qinghe who made the suggestion, the reward should naturally go to Xue Qinghe.

He then began to announce the rewards, which were very generous.

None of the ministers raised any objections upon seeing this.

They could all see just how far-reaching the Enfeoffment Decree would be, and how much benefit it would bring to the Heavenly Dou Empire.

If an ordinary person were to offer advice...

It wouldn't be surprising if the Snow Night Emperor granted him a noble title!

……

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ning Fengzhi already knew about what had happened in the imperial court before noon.

Ning Fengzhi was having morning tea with Sword Douluo, chatting about ferocious beasts.

After receiving this message, he inquired about the specifics of the Grace Decree.

After listening, both he and Sword Douluo fell silent.

Both were shocked by the decree of grace.

The more I try to understand its deeper meaning, the more terrifying it becomes.

This might be the first overt conspiracy in the history of Douluo Continent!

"This plan is brilliant! Whoever came up with this idea is a genius!" Sword Douluo suddenly exclaimed in praise.

Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, pondering, "Among the retainers of Qinghe, there should be no one who could come up with such a scheme..."

"Upon investigation, it appears that a man was present in the homes of those two ferocious beasts, suspected to be the same Mr. Dan Heng who proposed the Spirit Hall conspiracy theory, based on traces allegedly erased by Chrysanthemum Douluo!"

"If this was his idea, then it's not surprising..."

Ning Fengzhi wore a meaningful smile on his face.

He especially enjoys associating with talented people.

Dan Heng is undoubtedly a great talent, and now he has a ferocious beast as his wife.

So what exactly is Danheng's identity?

Is he just an ordinary person? Or another ferocious beast?

Ning Fengzhi's natural curiosity made him want to explore further.

Sword Douluo, meanwhile, continued drinking his tea, merely marveling at Dan Heng but showing no interest in making contact.

Moreover, those two ferocious beasts... Zi Ji is alright, even if he is no match for them, he will definitely not be in mortal danger.

But under Gu Yuena's hands, he felt fear.

That can really kill people!

"I need to find a suitable opportunity to get to know Mr. Danheng!"

Ning Fengzhi made a decision.

……

Meanwhile, the Danheng family was having breakfast, a little later than usual.

Last night, both of them barely got any rest because they were bothered by Gu Yuena.

Dan Heng slept in a bit, the first time he had done so since arriving in Douluo Continent.

It can only be said that Gu Yuena truly lives up to her title of Silver Dragon King; her vitality and combat power are astonishing.

Murasaki complained softly, "I'm starving, and I still managed to sleep in..."

Gu Yuena glanced at her and said coldly, "Can't you even shut your mouth with food?"

Zi Ji trembled and dared not speak again.

Just then.

There was a knock on the door.

Zhu Zhuqing flashed to open the door.

A moment later, Zhu Zhuqing and "Xue Qinghe" came in together.

Xue Qinghe was beaming, clearly in high spirits because of a happy occasion.

As soon as she entered, she clasped her hands in a fist and bowed to Dan Heng, saying, "Thank you for your grace, Mr. Dan Heng. The entire Tian Dou court is now marveling at the ingenuity of this plan."

"It's a pity I shamelessly took credit for this; otherwise, Mr. Danheng would have been able to bestow noble titles upon him with this plan!"

Xue Qinghe looked at Dan Heng, hoping that he could persuade him.

Unfortunately, Danheng's face didn't change at all.

It was as if the scheme had absolutely nothing to do with him.

Xue Qinghe knew that perhaps only an extraordinary man like Dan Heng could come up with such a scheme.

"Has Your Highness eaten? Why don't we eat together?"

Gu Yuena broke the silence and eased the awkwardness for Xue Qinghe.

Murasaki immediately became unhappy and whispered, "There wasn't much food to begin with..."

"OK!"

Xue Qinghe's eyes lit up; she had come just in time for lunch.

Zhu Zhuqing went to get the bowls and chopsticks.

"Mr. Danheng, rest assured, as long as you don't want to, no one can find out your identity from me."

"But I will keep saving my repayment for you until you get it."

Xue Qinghe said earnestly.

Dan Heng shook his head slightly and nodded. He had a good impression of "Xue Qinghe".

At least they keep their word and don't cause themselves any trouble.

"I'm going out now. I promised a friend I'd take care of his plants..." Danheng said to Gu Yuena.

Today is still a day off, and he plans to bring back the flowers and plants that Chrysanthemum Douluo asked him to do before going to the library.

"Good husband!"

Gu Yuena said with a smile.
