Chapter 92 Who Saved the Goddess of the Moon
Chapter 92 Who Saved the Goddess of the Moon
“Such a mischief-maker! How dare you to burn other’s courtyard.”
Zhu Jiuyin gave her a slap, and Yuan Xueyi felt her face stinging and ached.
“Is there anything good on the woman? Besides, she has a husband. Master, why bother?”
Since his thoughts had been read, Zhu Jiuyin became angry from embarrassment. He lifted Yuan Yueyi up, about to throw her out. But seeing the mischief maker’s face full of tears, he turned around and left. He felt more distressed when thinking about the words he had said to the woman in Si Shui. It was Zhu Jiuyin who pushed himself there. He knew well that Granny Moon was the closest person to the woman, but he still claimed that it was he who had killed Granny Moon. Apparently, the woman would hate him this life. The more he thought, the more exasperated he got. Zhu Jiuyin was too overwhelmed by the invisible depression to take a breath. He knew that he should not have such feeling, but he could not control himself.
“Master, my head aches. Let’s go back to the royal court earlier...”
Yuan Xueyi drew back because she wanted the Master to rest early. It was unwise to treat a drunken person stridently,otherwise, he would peel her skin off when pressed too hard. The fire swallowed the little Bamboo Tower and turned it into ashes finally. Zhu Jiuyin’s face was overcast with anger because the mischief maker burned out his last thought.
“Little servant, get out of here!”
Zhu Jiuyin got exasperated, thinking that Yuan Xueyi was such a mischief maker that she could do nothing but spoil his mood every time she followed him. Zhu Jiuyin flew by the wind, followed closely by Yuan Xueyi who wore a sly expression. It seemed that the Master was still soft-hearted toward her. “I should make more effort to win this handsome man back!” Yuan Xuyi thought and flew to the royal court merrily.
Although the Ninth-level Heaven had been destroyed severely, it took on an entirely new look after being repaired for several days. Because Feng Xi had rendered great assistance to protect the Majesty, Emperor Jun handed over the military leadership to Feng Xi. And what was unexpected was that Jiu Ying was given the position of the Empress as she had always been wishing. When Emperor Jun gave the decree, the little heavenly official touched the black gauze cap on his head, feeling reassured that he could keep his head in the end.
In a quiet and beautiful place in the human world, there was a place named Qing Valley.
Apart from herself, there were birds in the valley. Changxi sat quietly on the bluestone, listening to the sound of water flow running through the stone. Day in and day out, she just waited there. On the ninth day, a person came to the valley to take Changxi to the Qingyao Town to see patients. The person was masked. The two walked one after another. When arriving in the Qingyao Town, Changxi was led to the a house, and then the masked person left. When a steward there knew who Changxi was, he hurried to welcome her in. Changxi followed the steward into the courtyard. And the masked person kept an eye on the courtyard and jumped down from the high wall when he lost sight of Granny Moon.
“Since the distinguished guest has come, why not go into the house and rest?”
“Ning Hai, be careful to protect her. I will not let you go if there is something wrong to her.”
The person called Ning Hai did not dare to show any slight and ran into the courtyard hurriedly. He thought that he would treat her hospitably without any negligence, otherwise, that man would kill him without doubt. The masked man did not leave the Qingyao Town until he had fixed everything properly.
“Magic doctor Chang, please look at what happened to this child. He has been in a trance for three days. I am afraid that he will die.”
On the bed, the child’s face looked livid. Changxi felt his pulse, and knitted her eyebrows more tightly. How could they treat a child so badly? She hurried to take silver needle to let blood for him. Ning Hai standing besides gave a signal with eyes to the woman, hoping that the woman could act more genuinely. Since the Master asked Ning Hai to try every means to keep Changxi, Ning Hai had no way but made such a bad plan.
“Go to get some hot water.”
Little girls in Ning family prepared the hot water, and Changxi wiped the little child. Just within the time it took to drink half a cup of tea, the child came to life unexpectedly. To show gratitude to Changxi, the master of Ning family begged Changxi to stay. It was difficult to decline the master’s generous intentions, so Changxi lived temporarily in the Ning family. Ning Hai could not be happier and had wonderful dinner made to feast Changxi. After enjoying the dinner, Changxi filled her mind with a myriad of thoughts. Her home in the Immense Sea used to be cozy and warm, where she, Qiongqi, Xiao Douya, and Xiao Douya’s mother lived happily. She had thought that they would live like that for good, but no ones had foreseen that she would get into such a plight. Changxi could not still figure out how she survived, but just remember when she opened her eyes in the morning one day, she could see the sun instead of the darkness in Si Shui. She thought she was dreaming at that time. But when she saw the figure in the sunlight, she realized that she was alive! Since the Heaven did not want her to die, she thought she should live positively. In her whole life, she thought the person whom she felt the deepest sorry to was her Senior Brother, so she was eager to return to Kunlun to see her Senior Brother and grandson. But Ning Hai insisted on keeping her there, and Changxi felt it improper to mention to leave again. Seeing Ning Hai laden with worry, Changxi wanted to ask but thought it inappropriate, since the person was her benefactor after all.
Changxi had not expected that she would live there for half of a year. People were simple and honest in Qingyao Town, a land of idyllic beauty where men ploughed and women weaved. Ning Hai had been to the capital several times and told things about Chang Xi to the benefactor.
Later, Ning Hai found Changxi was expert in medical skills, and then thought of a plan of making money. So he ran to the capital to discuss it with the benefactor. Seemingly, he did it for Changxi to pass the time, but in fact, he intended to earn some wine-money. When Ning Hai mentioned opening a medical clinic with Chang Xi, Granny Moon was bursting with joy, because it was medical cultivator’s responsibility to heal the wounded and rescue the dying. When the residents of the Qingyao Town heard that a magic doctor was sitting in a medical clinic to see patients, they all came to queue early in order to catch a glimpse of Changxi.
Ning Hai was overjoyed. The clinic opened at the clock of dragon, and as only four hours had passed, he made much money into his pocket. Chang Xi was occupied in prescribing, getting and the medicine and decocting it, totally having no time to notice such a little thing. As a matter of fact, Changxi received no money for her seeing patients. No one knew that Ning Hai exploited the advantage for himself. The residents in the Town were rather simple and honest, regarding it as a unalterable principle to pay for their treatment. Therefore, Ning Hai got a large sum of money from it. When there was not anyone else in the clinic, Ning Hai counted the loose silver money for fun. Changxi had already boasted exquisite medical skills, plus her kindness and tolerance, which altogether made her renowned quickly. Located in the south of the capital, Qingyao Town used to be an isolated town. But because of the magic doctor, the people around the town all came there especially for her. Then, the news spread rapidly far and wide to the Qi Kingdom quickly.
Since You Qingcheng’s father had passed away, the Emperor seldom came to the Eastern Palace. You Qingcheng began worrying that if things would go on like that, the Western Palace would outweigh the Eastern Palace in Emperor’s heart. In the past, every time she did not feel well, the Emperor would show great concern to her. But at present, she could not see Di Qing face to face. You Qingcheng felt alarmed, thinking that she should have a little baby to accompany her. However, she still could not have the good news of being pregnant. She turned to Imperial Physician for help, but the Physician just advised her not to be so nervous and take things as they came. However, You Qingcheng did not have time to wait any longer and thought that she should have a baby when she was still young. In this way, she could cut down her sister’s overweening manner.
“Xian’er, I heard there is a female magic doctor in the Qingyao Town, who specializes in women’s diseases. Let’s go to see her one day.”
“Your Majesty, it is a long way to go there. I am afraid it is improper.”
“Don’t you know the incantation? You can protect me!”
Ni Shang wanted to decline it, but was afraid that You Qingcheng was displeased. Because the Queen was still useful in many aspects in the future, Ni Shang agreed finally with many indecisions and speculations. In the imperial harem, it was Queen who had the last word. The two planned out the day to leave, that is, the day after tomorrow. While You Qingcheng was making the plan in Wutong Palace, a scheming discussion was on show in the Western Palace. You Qingmo’s two servants were masterminding a scheme for her. Xu Xi and Xu Yin spared no effort to give advice to their master. To oppress the Eastern Palace and create more chances to make Di Qing think less about the Queen, they thought the most effective way was to cast her down... down to despair. And at present, they should try every means to let the Queen not see Di Qing, so the Queen’s chances of regaining favor would be even less in the future. However, Xu’s love to Queen Qingcheng made the author (Zhu Yan) think of a sentence: You can’t never forget what you can’t get. He was always dreaming of how to lives together affectionately with Younger Sister You. He seemed to be a bit spellbound. But Xu Xi did not care too much and only wanted to accompany her. He thought his elder brother’s plan was a bit vicious and You Qingcheng would not have a good ending if the plan was carried out successfully, but only in this way could You Qingcheng abandon her idea and could Xu Xi himself have chance to be with her. Therefore, he did not only help You Qingmo but also himself. All in all, they intended to cause great chaos in Qi Palace. The three were plotting how to let You Qingcheng disappear from the front of Di Qing when Xiao liuzi came to report them. They asked Xiao Liuzi to report more clearly. Xiao Liudi did possess such qualities that he was put in a good position by the Queen since he had came to the Eastern Palace for a short time. Xiao Liuzi was the friend of Xu’s brothers’ and came to be a servant in the Eastern Palace for the sake of paying for their kindness. Tonight, Xiao Liuzi’s news that the Queen would come ouf of the Palace the day after tomorrow to find the female magic doctor in Qingyao Town made three of them overjoyed. Xu Yin thought the chance came. Didn’t his brother like the Queen? They could take the Queen away, leaving the Qi Palace in a chaos. So the three came to agreement that Xu Xi disguesed himself as a carriage driver, and Xiao Liuzi and Xu Yin took the Quee away at the right time so as to use her to press Di Qing.
When the day came, You Qingcheng changed her look, afraid of being discovered. Ni Shang used the sorcery to help them out of the Palace. The two took the carriage to the west comfortably all the way. You Qingcheng peeped out of the windows from time to time to enjoy the sunshine in the winter. The carriage drivers drove so well that You Qingcheng fell asleep unknowingly. The purpose to the Qingyao Town was to pray for a child. Ni Shang closed her eyes and rest her mind, feeling helpless about the Master’s thought. In fact, men were a species that abandoned the old for the new. It was a miracle for a man to accompany the same woman throught the life. Ni Chang had seen it through, so she lived at ease. But You Qingcheng did not think so. To earn Di Qing’s favor, she came a long way to the Qingyao Town to pray for a child and claimed that things would work out if she just trusted. Ni Shang could not predict the result and thought that common people tended to hover over little things. However, Ni Shang could not handle so many things, and all she wanted was to find a place to live in and kill Di Qing at the proper time. The carriage stopped suddenly when it was about to reach the Qingyao Town. Ni Shang did not take it seriously, thinking that it was acceptable that the horses needed some rests, because the horses of human society had poor endurance. You Qingcheng did not want to sit inside, so she jumped off the carriage and wanted to walk around. Ni Shang followed her to get off the carriage. However, the carriage driver kept his head down. When the two women got off, the carriage charged at You Qingchen suddenly. The horse galloped on the way. Seeing the things worsening, Ni Shang flew to block it. But unexpectedly, the carriage swerved suddenly and charged toward them again. You Qingcheng kept running desperately for her life. Ni Shang wanted to stop the damn animal, but her eyes were covered by the raising dust. She was entangled with several masked men in black. However, You Qingcheng was just a delicate woman. Even though she was valued as the Queen, she would be trampled upon at will by the robbers. Ni Shang waved her spiritual fingers. Within several rounds, the men in black had declining tendency. Seeing things going on this way, Xu Yin signaled his younger brother with eyes. Xu Xi got the point, turned around and ran in the direction of You Qingcheng. Ni Shang realized the robbers’ intention, but was unable to get rid of them. She was trapped in the fight with those men in black. Xu Xi leapt to block You Qingcheng’s way and approached her step by step. You Qingcheng stopped and had no way to retreat, because behind her were sheer precipices and overhanging rocks. Xu Xi was startled at the sight, thinking that he had played it too far. He just loved this woman, and did not want to be a robber at all, nor pushed her too hard. However, You Qingcheng did not think so. Last time, she had been taken advantage of in the military camp. This time, she would keep her decency in desperation.Time seemed to be frozen. Xu Xi did not dare to act rashly, afraid any unconsidered action would force the You family’s girl to drop off the precipices. Ni Shang was still entangled with those men. But with several rounds, she felt that her ability fell short of her wishes. Although she knew the sorcery, she was still fighting arduously against those sturdy men. Both sides fought furiously. Xu Yin was not good at martial art but at wit. Seeing the woman being distracted, he asked the men to besiege her. Ni Shang was forced to retreat repeatedly meters upon meters. Women were born to be the weak. The longer things dragged on, the more damages it would cause. Looking at the Queen in the cliff far away, Ni Shang condensed her Spirit Power and swept out. The men in black pressed hard. Ni Shang leaped in the air and flew to the Queen.
