Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

From the moment she shouted "Oh no, there is medicine," Li Junhao put the ring that he had been holding on his thumb because of nervousness back on.

This time, he bet right again, and Gu Xunwei’s dream was indeed becoming reality.

Haha, they are so bold.

"Prince, what should we do next?" The emperor saw her fall to the ground without any emotion, but turned around to ask his son.

Li Junhao signaled to Sang Mo, so Sang Mo quickly brought in another person. This person was wearing a black robe. Not only was his body wrapped tightly, but even his hair and face were wrapped in black, leaving only two black eyes exposed.

"I'm Xuanjizi, and I'm here to pay my respects to His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." After the man said this, he knelt down respectfully and saluted the two of them.

"Xuan Jizi? What is this?" The emperor did not let him stand up, but turned to ask Li Junhao.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this Xuanjizi is a folk illusionist who is best at using illusions, and this Nanny Li is exactly his junior sister from the same school." Li Junhao's words startled the emperor so much that he accidentally dropped a memorial on the imperial desk to the ground.

He stood up with a bang, "What, illusion? Nanny Li is actually good at using illusions?"

Xuanjizi knelt on the ground and answered carefully, "Yes, Your Majesty, my junior sister was very talented and intelligent. She had already received the true teachings of the master before she was sixteen years old. Her strength was even better than that of ordinary people, and she was especially good at bewitching people."

"Oh," the emperor took two steps forward and walked in front of Nanny Li. He was still a little bit unbelievable. How could there be such a person in the palace, and how could he walk step by step to the side of the empress dowager.

"Is she stronger than you?"

Xuanjizi knelt on the ground motionless, and then said, "Yes, she wanted to leave the sect and secretly fell in love with a man without the master's knowledge. After being strongly opposed by the master, they joined forces to burn down our entire sect, and the master also died in the fire."

"I almost lost half my life, and my body was covered in burns. Now I can't even see anyone. I hide all day long, but I dare not slack off for a single day. I only have one wish, which is to find her and avenge my master and other brothers in the sect."

"Who is the man she likes? Do you know his name?" the emperor continued to ask.

At this time, Li Junhao walked to the emperor and supported the trembling emperor. He was obviously a little excited and didn't even have time to ask Xuanjizi to stand up and answer.

"Xuanjizi, you, stand up and answer." Li Junhao helped the emperor sit back on the dragon throne, then asked Xuanjizi to stand up.

"Have you ever seen that man?" the emperor asked, continuing with what he had just said.

Xuanjizi shook his head and said, "I just saw his back once by accident. There's nothing special about it."

Li Junhao saw the emperor's disappointed look, and he knew that the emperor wanted to see whether the man that Nanny Li liked back then was the one he guessed.

Xuanjizi said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Nanny Li is here now. I have a way to make her tell everything."

"Oh, really? What are you going to do?" The emperor immediately became excited when he heard him say that.

Xuanjizi took out several bottles and jars from his black robe one after another. "This one can make people see the scene they fear the most. This one can make her completely forget everything that happened in a day. This one can make her regard any random person as the person she cares about the most. And this one... combined with my spell, it works every time."

He explained all the bottles and jars that were displayed one by one, and then said, "The reason why I asked the emperor to talk to her about other things just now was to dispel her vigilance, so that she would be more easily infected by my medicine."

At first, he spent more than ten years searching for her whereabouts, but unfortunately found nothing. Who would have thought that she actually entered the palace and stayed by the Queen Mother's side.

When he mentioned that the person he was going to deal with was her, he had already brought all the medicine he could carry with him. After all, the other party's talent was much better than his. Now it seems that he was worrying too much.

She had made no progress in all these years in the palace, while he had been constantly researching and studying new skills just to avenge his master. Seeing that she fell for it so easily, he felt a little relieved.

After hearing his words, the emperor hesitated for a moment and ordered, "Use the potion over there to make her think that the person in front of her is the one she cares about the most. I want to see what they want to do."

The emperor's tone was very angry, and Xuanjizi was so frightened that he became a little restrained. Sang Mo, who had communicated with him in advance, spoke for him, "Your Majesty, this matter requires a special room. The emperor should hide behind the screen. Otherwise, if she sees someone else beside her, I'm afraid she won't say anything easily."

"Well, okay, you guys make the arrangements."

So, they all came to a side hall. Li Junhao had already arranged all this in advance, so they hid behind the screen together and eavesdropped on the conversation between Li Ma and Xuan Jizi.

The screen in front of them was also translucent, and they could even see each other's expressions under the light.

Nanny Li slowly woke up from her chair. After her eyes adjusted to the light, they focused on the person in front of her. "Ah, you... why are you in the palace?"

She was quite surprised, but her brain was a little slow. She realized that her voice was a little loud, so she quickly lowered her voice and asked, "Didn't you always tell me to keep calm? Why are you the one who can't keep calm?"

Xuanjizi moved the candlestick on the table, then turned to look at the other party, "I just came here to confirm, are you ready? After all, tomorrow's matter is very important, and there can be no mistakes."

“Hmph,” Nanny Li’s tone was full of resentment at this moment, completely different from her dignified and calm demeanor just now, “You are so cruel, throwing me into this palace for twenty years, and you only think of me when something happens…”

Xuanjizi lowered his head, not knowing how to reply, so he could only turn his back in displeasure, looking somewhat angry.

"Alright, alright, I won't say anything." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Nanny Li walked up to him, stretched out her hands and hugged his arms, shaking him as she said, "You promised me that you would take me back to your house after this was done. I don't want to be your concubine, I want to be your wife."

"Okay, no problem." Xuanjizi replied.
