Chapter 88

  As they passed by a pharmacy, they saw a woman in white being pushed out, and heard the person say: "You'd better hurry up and gather some money, once a madman shows symptoms of coughing up blood, it's going to be very troublesome."

  The woman left with a worried look on her face.

  "Mrs. Shu."

  Upon hearing this address, Shu Wei turned around and when she saw Emperor Renzong sitting upright on his horseback, her eyes widened in astonishment.

  "Wait a moment, madam." Lu Xiaofeng released his grip on the reins and stepped up onto the pharmacy's steps. He pulled out a silver ingot from his sleeve and handed it over, "Will this be enough?"

  "That's enough."

  "What are you waiting for?"

  The doctor naturally followed them with his medicine box to treat Shu Xiucai.

  In the desolate and ruined temple, Shu De Fu, who had been driven mad by others, lay on a pile of weeds with no energy left. His daughter Xiaofang stood guard beside him, her young eyes filled with sorrow.

  The doctor carefully felt his pulse and prescribed a prescription before leaving.

  Mrs. Shi thanked the doctor profusely and saw him off.

  Then, they returned to the broken temple to thank Emperor Renzong and his two companions.

  "Mrs. Shu, this is not a place to stay for long. You've already been implicated, and Stone Guozhu's people will likely come looking for you."

  Ren Zong felt that Lu Xiao Feng's analysis was correct, so he also said: "Right, you guys are also suffering because of me, let's leave this place together."

  "But my husband..." Madam Shu Wei looked at her own husband and couldn't help but burst into tears.

  Lu Xiaofeng said, "Actually, I also have a slight understanding of medicine. It's just that earlier I thought the doctor had some confidence in his diagnosis. Now it seems he was probably just trying to make more money."

  "Xiu's illness is probably not something that can be cured with ordinary medicine. For now, let's just focus on saving her life first, and this point is actually not difficult for me."

  "You..."

  Emperor Renzong confirmed, "What she said is true, she is well-versed in medical principles."

  Shu Wei finally felt at ease and followed the emperor's personal physician, whose words were naturally trustworthy.

  "Could it be that Master Bao has already been captured by Shi Guozhu? What should we do now?"

  "It doesn't matter, I've already had someone send word back to the capital."

  "Really?" Emperor Renzong was surprised by her once again.

  "My guards are the Five Rats of Trap Island, they won't always be by my side, so naturally I'll have to leave some means for you to contact me."

  "So it was."

  As soon as they left, the group of people followed the information given by the doctor and found this broken temple, but the result was - the temple was empty!

  Unfortunately, one of those who left was halfway due to a relapse of schizophrenia and got lost again, and was caught back by Mo Yan and taken back to the county king's mansion.

  Shu Wei was heartbroken.

  Shu Fang said to her mother, "Mother, don't worry, I've already asked Xiao Yuan's grandfather to go and rescue Father."

  Shu Wei just thought of her as a daughter and was comforting herself, she didn't take it seriously.

  Lu Xiaofeng knew about the divine powers of the old turtle couple, and he also put his mind at ease. He said: "Madam Shu, I think Xiaofang is right, you don't have to worry too much."

  Schwartz simply shook his head and wept.

  The next day, Shu Xiucai was indeed rescued by Grandfather Turtle and brought back.

  Lao Gui didn't dare to get too close to Emperor Renzong, and even when he saw Lu Xiaofeng, he was shocked in his heart. How did this girl look exactly like the immortal who had pointed him out hundreds of years ago?

  He could even see the pear blossom hidden between her eyebrows, which was identical to that of the immortal being at first glance.

  "Thank you, Grandfather Turtle."

  The old turtle was startled and jumped back, he didn't dare to accept the girl's courtesy, thinking it would also shorten his lifespan. "No need to thank me, no need to thank me."

  "Grandfather Turtle is still looking for you, Little Yuan, hurry back."

  "Uh-huh."

  Before leaving, Lao Gui cured Shu Xiucai's madness with his magic and then floated away.

  Xiao Feng's daughter knew that her grandson Xiao Yuan had already fallen into the hearts of Shi Guozhu and others, and in the end, she was still afraid of having to perform the true and false Bao Gong play!

  Not long after, King Xian of Ba led his troops to come to Yizhou to welcome him.

  Shi Guozhu saw that things were going wrong and wanted to resort to desperate tactics.

  And then they met Zhan Zhao, who had tricked and captured him, and rescued Bao Zheng and others. Shi Guozhu and others fled in defeat, and on the way, they saw Shi Guozhu's corpse.

  The officers and soldiers continued to pursue those remnants, but when everyone caught up, they saw another team from Kaifeng Prefecture.

  The real and fake Kaifeng Seven Sons officially debut.

  Emperor Renzong, the Eight Wise Kings, and Prime Minister Wang, along with Little Phoenix's Taishu, were all stumped by the two teams of identical Kaifeng Seven Sons.

  Finally, it can only be verified bit by bit whether it is true or false.

  Everyone judges truth from falsehood based on what they know, of course, Little Phoenix Maiden is excluded from this game of identifying people. Firstly, because she didn't appear with Emperor Renzong, and secondly, except for Xuan Xiao Mao, others don't think she has the ability to distinguish, because she shouldn't be so familiar with the people of Kaifeng Prefecture!

  So in the end, it was Wang Chengxiang who remembered that day in Kaifeng Prefecture when he saw the so-called dragon turtle - Bi Xi. He saw Bi Xi show warning signs and his eyes flowed with bloody tears. This matter was only known to a few high-ranking officials present at the scene, hence they were able to distinguish between true and false.

  At the last moment, the rescued old turtle appeared and broke its own spell, then escaped in front of Bao Zheng.

  Shi Guozhu and others who were discovered also escaped after a fight and disappeared without a trace.

  The little phoenix girl who was originally leading her own red-maned horse to run in circles unfortunately encountered Shi Guozhu and his two companions who were going to find Shu Xiucai and Shu Defu's couple to take revenge.

  Xiao Feng quickly snatched up Shu Fang and Shu Wei and mounted the horse, then slapped the horse's buttocks and took off first!

  It's lucky that Red Cloud is a fine horse, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to escape.

  Carrying this mother and daughter who had recently gone through hardships back to the emperor's temporary residence, Lu Xiaofeng finally felt relieved.

  Emperor Renzong was furious upon hearing the report. How dare he treat his benefactor this way? Shi Guozhu is truly adding crime to his guilt.

  Zhan Zhao was ordered to go and rescue Shu Xiucai.

  Two people brushed past each other under the corridor, but didn't say a word.

  Little Phoenix saw her Taishifu and shouted "Father" in a crisp voice. She didn't follow Shu Weizi's mother and daughter to see the emperor at first, because her clothes were caught on branches or something, so she went to change into another set of clothes before coming over. After all, it wouldn't be good to run to see the emperor with an untidy appearance.

  Mr. Pang was overjoyed to see his lively and energetic daughter, who had also made a great effort this time. Although they kept a low profile and didn't say much, they were still secretly pleased.

  Girls should not be too showy, and when necessary, they should also be low-key.

  As for the matter of Little Phoenix Maiden single-handedly annihilating the six people from Western Dominance Heaven, Emperor Ren Zong guaranteed with his imperial reputation that it would absolutely not be leaked out. He simply had someone clean up the possible aftermath left behind by those people's corpses.

  An emperor can settle some things in no time, it's simply too easy.

  "You're running wildly again, you see how dangerous it is, fortunately you ran fast."

  "Dad, you said so, how did I know that even if I let a horse go, I would still meet bad people? It's really thanks to Pang Yu sending me the Bao Ma."

  "His Majesty is inside, be more dignified." Mr. Pang reminded his daughter in a low voice.

  "Oh."

  "Your Majesty, may you live for ten thousand years and ten thousand more." Little Feng entered and immediately performed a grand ceremony of worship, her movements already practiced.

  Emperor Renzong smiled and helped her up, "My dear subject, you may rise. This time I was in danger, and you also rendered meritorious service by saving me."

  "This is what I should be."

  "Hello, King and Prime Minister."

  The Eight Wise Kings and the King's Prime Minister both smiled and nodded in agreement.

  It's probably because if it weren't for meeting Shi Guozhu and others today and saving Shu Weizi and her mother, this girl would still not be willing to come here to see you.

  Based on the suspicious points in the official announcement, she can unravel the threads and find the location where the emperor is hiding, it can be seen that her mind is meticulous and her brain is quick.

  Then, protecting the emperor's hidden tracks, let Shi Guozhu and others labor in vain, seeing even more brilliance.

  However, not letting her appear in public is also the emperor's way of protecting her, and everyone else understands this as well.

  Zhan Zhao successfully rescued Shu De Fu, captured Shi Guo Zhu who had escaped, and joined forces with Lao Gui to eliminate Mo Yan and the fake Guoshi.

  The old turtle also went back from where it came after things ended.

  Human affairs, it has already interfered enough, when it's time to leave, it should leave.

  Fat girl.

  "Mr. Gong Sun."

  Gongsun Ce sat down on the stone bench beside Lu Xiaofeng with a smile, "It's so late and you're still not going to sleep, what are you thinking about?"

  Lu Xiaofeng glanced at the courtyard over there and asked him: "The injuries on Zhan Zhao's body are not serious, right?"

  "It doesn't matter," Gong Sun Ce paused for a moment and then said: "If you're worried, why don't you go see for yourself?"

  "My dad is here."

  Gongsun Ce smiled and said, "Indeed."

  "Will you girls go back to Beijing together?"

  "I haven't even gone to see Dujiangyan yet." Which means I still don't plan on returning to Beijing.

  "You still like traveling around so much, miss?"

  "What a wonderful mountain and river, what a great world! We must appreciate nature."

  "Yes, appreciating mountains and rivers while also getting rid of evil is indeed great."

  Lu Xiaofeng caught the underlying tone and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

  Gongsun Ce smiled and said, "Those people from Xi Ba Wang were handled by the adults on orders."

  "Mr. Bao?"

  "Yes."

  "What does Mr. Gong Sun want to say?"

  Gongsun Ce took out two needles from his sleeve pocket and handed them over, "These should be the ones that were shot out of your loom, Miss. You must have been in a hurry to leave and forgot to take them with you."

  "Recognize the little cat?"

  "That organ box was presented to the young lady as a gift, so he must have recognized it." Gong Sun Ce's gaze swept over the small knife at her waist that seemed to be for decoration, and smiled, "That's exactly where the bandit's heart is, extremely accurate."

  Lu Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and pulled out the small knife from his waist, pushed it over, "Mr. Gong Sun isn't this what you wanted to see? Here."

  Gongsun Ce picked up the knife and examined it carefully, smiling and nodding his head. He had guessed correctly along with Xian Huwei that those people were indeed killed by this girl's hand.

  "The girl is indeed a real person who doesn't show her true appearance."

  "The bottom line is exposed, and the play can't be sung anymore." Little Phoenix said, seemingly true or false.

  Gongsun Ce laughed loudly and said, "Miss always has so many words of wisdom."

  "Mr. Gong Sun is overpraising."

  "The student took his leave first, and the girl sat back slowly."

  Little Phoenix suddenly felt that this Gong Sun Ce was really a sinister bamboo, and she specially ran over to confirm some things before happily skipping away.

  ……

  "What could have made Miss Pong so indignant?" The voice of Eighth Highness came from the side with a smile.

  Lu Xiaofeng hastily stood up and greeted him, "Eighth Prince."

  Sit.

  Little Phoenix Maiden was bewildered in her heart, is this a wheel war?

  What information did they want to get from her after all?

  "Speaking of which, I, the king, and this young lady seem to have some connection after all?"

  Is he here to recognize his relatives?

  What's going on?

  It's more realistic for her to find Eighth Highness to be a better match for this kind of thing.

  Seeing her confusion, the Eighth Virtuous King said: "Didn't you acknowledge Zhao Qiujie of Jing Shan Wang Fu as your sworn brother? In that case, isn't there a connection between him and me?"

  Does this count? I didn't acknowledge Jing Shan Wang Fei as my adoptive mother, did I? Having a Pang Tai Shi as a father is already very hurtful, and now acknowledging another Jing Shan Wang who can't even educate her own children, that high-and-mighty cold-blooded royal family member... she really doesn't need to live. So when I acknowledged Zhao Qiu Jie as my adoptive brother earlier, it was already very forced.

  But she can't tell this truth to Eighth Highness.

  Little Phoenix Maiden was slightly helpless.

  "Qiujie's child has now become a decent person, and this is also thanks to his wife."

  "I am not worthy of this honor."

  "Why don't you return to Beijing with us this time, miss?"

  "Huh?" Can't we go together?

  "The Eight Wise Kings smiled and said: 'Let's go back to the capital first.'"

  "Yes, the civilian woman knew." It seems like I have no choice but to follow her back.

  How disappointing!

  Shi Guozhu was escorted back to Beijing for trial and accepted the punishment of national law.

  What left Little Phoenix speechless was that this guy insisted on being the true Dragon Son and wanted to use a dragon-shaped guillotine before his execution, but as a result, he was told by Eighth Highness "not worthy of being a human minister" and had his dragon-shaped guillotine changed to a dog-shaped one, how dramatic.

  It's also very comedic!

  Xiao Feng was delighted to watch Shi Guozhu bow his head as a participant in this event.

  The chief culprit will be punished, and the meritorious officials will naturally have their rewards.

  Xiaofeng was rewarded by being recognized as a imperial sister by Emperor Renzong and enfeoffed as Princess Yicheng.

  It turns out that there is really a connection with the Eighth Sage King, and Little Phoenix also finally understands why the Eighth Sage King insisted on bringing her back together, because she has to accept the imperial edict and wear formal attire to receive the decree.

  Mr. Pang said with great joy, his daughter is really too beautiful.

  Zhan Zhao couldn't help but sigh even more. With her status rising like the tide, how would their marriage end up in the end?
