Strange love across time and space

At this time in the imperial study, the emperor took the white jade bottle handed over by Eunuch Xi, opened the cork, poured a pill into his mouth, took a sip of tea and swallowed it. Eunuch Xi observed the emperor's face from the side. After the emperor finished taking the elixir, Eunuch Xi took the white jade bottle and asked with concern.

"Your Majesty, you have been taking this elixir for several days. How do you feel?"

"Well, Taoist Yixin's elixir is quite good. I used to feel physically exhausted after two or three hours of reviewing memorials. But these days, it's not that serious anymore." The emperor said with satisfaction.

"It seems that Taoist Yixin has some abilities, otherwise His Highness Prince Rui would not have introduced him to the Emperor." Eunuch Xi agreed.

"The third child has always been filial. In this regard, the other brothers cannot compare." The emperor paused and then said, "Go and give Meng Bin the red coral that was paid tribute from the south a few days ago. Tell her that I am here today. Go to her place for dinner tonight."

"Yes, slave, go right now!"

In the East Palace, the prince, several ministers and several counselors from the East Palace were discussing matters in the prince's study. Outside the study, the guards from the East Palace surrounded the study, and not even a fly could fly in.

At midnight, everyone in the Su Mansion was already asleep. On the roof of Qingqing Courtyard, a black figure stood there. The phantom closed its eyes and frowned, feeling the surrounding atmosphere. If there was something in the air, Ruowu's familiar feeling made Phantom couldn't help but clenched his fists. This kind of aura has been appearing for several days, which makes Phantom have to be vigilant. After a moment, the phantom jumped down from the roof and came to Su Qing's room. Looking at Su Qing's peaceful sleeping face, the phantom put her big hand on Su Qing's forehead and instantly entered her dream.

Su Qing in the dream saw the phantom, happily came over, took his hand and asked

"What's wrong, you miss me again?"

The phantom nodded lovingly and held Su Qing in her arms. After a while, the phantom spoke softly.

"Qingqing, there is something I want to tell you in advance."

Su Qing raised her head

"What is it? So serious?"

"Before, I told you that I listened to Taoist Priest Qingyun's slander and killed many of my kind by mistake. In the end, I was jointly resisted by the fox demon, snake demon, chrysanthemum demon and bamboo demon. Although I escaped, I was beaten to death. The prototype had to be hidden underground.”

"Yeah, I remember, what's wrong?"

"In the last battle, I killed both the fox demon and the snake demon. Although the remaining bamboo demon and chrysanthemum demon were seriously injured by me, I don't know if they survived in the end. In the past few days, I always feel that they are back, but their breath is very weak and I can't find any trace of them."

Su Qing was shocked after hearing this.

"You mean, the Bamboo Demon and the Chrysanthemum Demon came to take revenge on you?"

Phantom shook his head, "I don't know if both of them are here, or just one of them. I don't know if they have found me. My spiritual power is hundreds of years higher than theirs. Ordinarily they can't find me." , but if there are powerful Taoists to help, they will inevitably not surpass me. Qingqing, I just want to tell you that I may be in danger. What I am most afraid of is that they will kidnap you and threaten me. You are mine. Weak spot, so before I find them, you stay in Su Mansion and don't go out. I will set up formations around Su Mansion, and ordinary monsters will not break in."

Su Qing nodded worriedly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

At the same time, in a wooden house on a mountain next to Xiangguo Temple, a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest was talking to a young man.

"Maozhu, how do you feel now? Pindao has already given you more than a hundred pills to take. If your spiritual power is not as strong as that of the phantom, then our plan will be difficult to achieve!"

"Taoist Yixin, Maozhu is very grateful for your life-saving grace. However, the phantom was transformed from a thousand-year-old white vine. Even if the four of us joined forces back then, we could not eliminate him. The pill Taoist gave me, Although it can greatly increase my spiritual power, if I really fight against the phantom, I am still not sure."

"The reason why Pindao chose this place for you to hide is because this is the place where Phantom has cultivated his character for hundreds of years. Although he is now in Su Mansion, there is still a lot of his aura here. Pindao hopes that you can always Feel these auras so that you can accurately find his traces in the future, Maozhu, remember, if the phantom is not removed, everything we have planned will be in vain."

"Yes, Taoist Master, Mao Zhu understands."

"Alas! The growth of spiritual power is still too slow. I will think of other ways."

In Prince Rui's Mansion, a white carrier pigeon landed in the courtyard of Prince Rui's study. The guard picked up the carrier pigeon and knocked on the door of Prince Rui's study.

"Come in!" King Rui's deep voice came. The guard lowered his head slightly and held the pigeon in front of King Rui. King Rui took the pigeon, took off the small bamboo tube on the pigeon's leg, opened the note inside, and read it. Finally, King Rui narrowed his eyes and murmured

"Fresh corpse? Humph, it's not difficult."

Early in the morning, Qifeng Palace, the sound of broken cups frightened the people in Qifeng Palace, and the queen's voice came from the hall.

"What are you talking about! That bitch Meng Bin has resumed her position as concubine?"

Aunt Zhang asked the palace maid to clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the floor while comforting the queen.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I just heard about this, and I don't know what tricks Meng Bin used to make such a big mistake, and she was able to coax the emperor to regain her title as concubine!"

"Hmph! What else can we do! I heard that she and King Rui donated some Taoist elixirs to the emperor. I thought they were charlatans. Now it seems that those elixirs are effective. Oh! Otherwise, just relying on Meng Liang’s military exploits, the emperor won’t be able to reset her!” The queen paused and looked at Grandma Zhang again.

"Mommy, Mrs. Meng is now a concubine again. Don't call her by the wrong name when you are walking outside."

"Yes, my Majesty, don't worry, I will remember it. But Madam, as Concubine Shu is back on her throne, should we send some congratulatory gifts?"

"Of course I want it. As a queen, if I can't do this etiquette, the emperor will accuse me of being jealous. Aunt Zhang, go to the warehouse and send the Ruyi jade to Concubine Shu. "

"Slave, go now."

After Nanny Zhang left, the queen looked at the sky outside, smiled sarcastically, and said to the palace maid behind her

"Go! Call the prince here."

Ever since the Phantom told her not to let Su Qing leave the Su Mansion, Su Qing had been helping Jiang with the housework at home every day, playing the guzheng and practicing boxing in her spare time. When Jiang asked her why she didn't go out, Su Qing only said The weather is getting hot and I am too lazy to go out.

On this day, Su Qing was lazily leaning on the couch, eating the iced watermelon brought by Qingzhu, and thinking about how to make explosives in her previous life. She had never studied explosives, and she couldn't even think of the raw materials.
