After the rebirth of the little apprentice sister, the white lotus heroine was exposed
Chapter 207: The Attraction of the Mortal World
They were all handsome men and beautiful women, and they attracted a lot of attention when they walked towards the city gate. When they arrived at the city gate, Murong Xin directly took out his token and showed it to the soldiers guarding the city. When the soldiers saw the token, they immediately showed respect on their faces.
"See you, Your Majesty."
When the soldiers saw the token, they all knelt on one knee to salute, and this scene also surprised Xiao Yuting.
In the world of cultivation, people seldom kneel down to salute, except when they are taking a disciple. At other times, they just clasp their hands together. However, when these soldiers saw Murong Xin, they knelt down to salute directly.
"Get up!"
Murong Xin seemed to be used to this kind of situation, and said calmly, and then said to them,
"They are my senior brothers and sisters."
"Big Brother, Little Sister, let's go in. This is Huayang City. Most of them are mortals. Of course, Huayang City is not the only city with mortals. There are also people from many other cities. Although the number of mortals is not as many as that of cultivators, it is still not small."
Murong Xin knew that this was Xiao Yuting's first time in the mortal city, so he introduced it to her.
After entering the city, Xiao Yuting looked at the pavilions and towers that were completely different from the cities in the cultivation world. There was no spiritual energy on these things and they looked very fragile. The things sold on the street had no spiritual energy, but they were more exquisite. There were also many fragrant cakes and snacks, and her eyes lit up.
Bai Xiao looked at her eyes which were shining brightly, and knowing that she liked it here, he followed her.
Seeing the man selling candied haws, Murong Xin, knowing her personality, immediately stepped forward to pay her. In the mortal world, people use gold coins, while in the world of cultivation, people use spirit stones. She definitely didn't know this and didn't have any gold coins.
"Seventh Brother, what is this?"
Xiao Yuting originally planned to pay with spirit stones herself, but Murong Xin gave her gold coins first, and the candied haws she wanted was in her hands. She asked in confusion.
"These are gold coins, which are used by mortals. You cannot use spiritual stones here. Spiritual stones are useless to mortals. Here are some gold coins. Take them and buy some snacks."
Xiao Yuting didn't bother to be polite with Murong Xin. She took the gold coins in the bag and walked forward.
"Seventh Senior Brother, are you sure our little princess knows the prices? She will definitely spend all your bag of gold coins in less than half a day."
Fu Junhao looked at Xiao Yuting jumping forward and said with a smile.
"Use it up when it's finished. It's not like you can't afford it."
Murong Xin didn't care much about gold coins. After all, he was a regent prince, so how could he be short of gold coins? He couldn't even support Xiao Yuting.
Others had no interest in the mortal world, but Xiao Yuting was. She walked and stopped here and there, and it took more than two hours to reach the Regent's Palace.
Even if he was not in Huayang City, the Regent's Palace was always managed and kept very clean, as if the owner was always there.
Murong Xin brought Bai Xiao and the others into the palace and asked the butler to arrange rooms for them. He specially arranged a beautiful and exquisite attic for Xiao Yuting, and asked the butler to go to the palace to get many dresses and jewelry for Xiao Yuting that only princesses could wear.
His return had long been reported to the palace, and when people from the palace came to get their things, the palace was very responsive and gave him everything he wanted.
This action made Xiao Yuting very happy. The clothes brought from the palace were much more exquisite than the robes in the world of cultivation. She was at an age where she loved beauty, so she just stayed in the room to change clothes.
Bai Xiao and others sat in the pavilion in the palace drinking tea and gave Murong Xin a thumbs up.
"Seventh Junior Brother, you are amazing. It is rare to see our little princess showing such a childish side. It shows how much she likes these dresses. You can directly refine a set of robes based on these dresses and give them to the little princess. She will definitely like it."
Xiao Jingyan looked at Murong Xin with admiration and then lowered his head in distress, not knowing what gift he should give.
"Sixth Senior Brother, this is a good idea. I do have this idea."
Murong Xin said with a smile, a relaxed look on his face.
"Big Brother, how long have we stayed here? It's quite boring."
"Stay for about a month. The mortal world is a good place for training. Starting tomorrow, you should not stay in the mansion. Go out and take a walk. You can see a lot of different scenery."
Bai Xiao looked at the listless people and gave orders directly.
"Yes, senior brother!"
With Bai Xiao's order, they dared not to slack off anymore.
In the evening, the housekeeper prepared meals and they went to the restaurant to eat together. This was what Xiao Yuting was looking forward to. At this moment, Xiao Yuting was wearing a pink and blue princess dress and exquisite jewelry on her head, which was carved into various flower shapes. Many of the jewelry were made of pearls.
With the snacks she bought on the street in the afternoon, Xiao Yuting was also looking forward to the meal. As she expected, the food was delicious. The meal took a long time and made her very happy.
After dinner, Murong Xin asked the butler to take out a lot of gold coins and give them a bag each, and then continued,
"You can use these gold coins first. If you don't have enough to buy something, just leave the bill at the palace or ask the butler to pay for you. I'll go to the palace first."
"Okay, Brother Seven, you are busy, don't worry about us."
Xiao Yuting likes this mortal world very much. There are many new things here, which make her feel very novel.
The next day, Murong Xin went to the palace, and Xiao Yuting and several fellow brothers went out to play on the street. They were very curious about the lifestyle that was completely different from their cultivation world.
After a few days, they completely fell in love with the life on earth, which was leisurely and quiet. At this moment, they had not yet realized that there were struggles and calculations in the earthly world.
That day they went out to the street to play again and heard everyone talking about the return of the prince and the princess. Even the new prime minister Song Lian asked his daughter, the prince's concubine Song Sisi, to go to the city gate to welcome the returning prince.
Murong Xin also came out with them. Seeing that they were all heading towards the city gate, Xiao Yuting was also very curious and said to Murong Xin,
"Seventh Senior Brother, let's go and take a look. Why are they all going to the city gate to greet them?"
"There are quite a lot of people. Let's go to the window of the restaurant. We can see the city gate clearly from there."
Murong Xin looked at Xiao Yuting's curious expression and smiled as he suggested another way to watch the fun.
Xiao Yuting also didn't like being squeezed in the crowd, so she agreed to Murong Xin's suggestion and went towards the restaurant near the city wall.
They sat at the second-floor window of the restaurant, looking at the crowded streets on both sides of the city gate, and became even more curious.
After the waiter served them tea and cakes, he was about to leave when Murong Xin stopped him.
"Waiter, what's going on at the city gate? It's so busy!"
When the waiter heard Murong Xin's question and saw that everyone else was looking at him curiously, his vanity was satisfied and he smiled and said,
"It's the prince and princess who cultivated immortals who have returned. The prince also brought the princess with him. I heard that the princess is the youngest daughter of the prince's sect and can refine powerful elixirs. Naturally, everyone went to see the princess."
"So that's it."
Murong Xin didn't expect this to be the reason. What seemed ordinary to them was indeed amazing in the eyes of these mortals.
"Junior sister, are you still watching? Maybe Murong Fei got the news that I'm back and rushed back."
After Murong Xin knew the reason, he no longer had the heart to watch the fun, but the most important thing was Xiao Yuting. If she still wanted to watch the fun, they were willing to accompany her.
"Look, I want to see if there are any other people coming. I remember that Hao Pengxiang seemed to be dead, and his wife was also from Huayang City. How did they deal with him?"
When Xiao Yuting heard them talking about this, she remembered what happened in Ice and Snow City several years ago.
"That was the legitimate daughter of Murong Fei's grandfather. She married Hao Pengxiang. After his death, she couldn't just stay out of it, so she committed suicide. Upon learning of her daughter's death, she offended the person in charge of the Hao family. The emperor directly weakened his position and replaced him as prime minister.
The prime minister's surname is Song. His daughter Song Sisi is Murong Fei's concubine. She gave birth to a son for him five years ago. Now she lives alone with her child in the prince's mansion. "
In the past few days since Murong Xin came back, he has learned a lot about what happened in Huayang City, but he has no intention of intervening and just plays with a few people every day.
Now, when he heard that Xiao Yuting wanted to gossip, he told her everything he knew. Sure enough, their little sister had never changed. She was still as childish as before. She loved to listen to gossip, love beauty, love delicious food, and love to play. This was the happy little girl they wanted to see.
"Look, here it comes!"
Xiao Yuting's eyes were fixed outside the city gate. She watched Murong Fei and the others flying over on their spirit beasts. She watched them arrive in front of the city gate in a blink of an eye. The people were shouting excitedly, welcoming the princes back.
"So they are so excited to see the immortal cultivators!"
"Yes! In their eyes, immortal cultivators are something they can only dream of but cannot reach. Seeing them makes them excited from the bottom of their hearts. They also hope that one of their descendants will have spiritual roots and be able to cultivate. As long as one such person appears in a family, it will be the pride and glory of their entire family."
Murong Xin understood the excitement of the people of Huayang City and told Xiao Yuting and others everything he knew.
Murong Fei and others flew down from the flying spirit beasts and were surrounded by the people as they entered the city and walked towards the royal family. Of course, the prince's concubine Song Sisi was also waiting at the city gate with her children and a carriage.
They got on the carriage and headed towards the palace, and the people dispersed only when they could no longer be seen.
Murong Fei looked at the little boy brought by Song Sisi, and he still had some fatherly love in his heart, so he hugged the child. Ye Wenjuan saw that Song Sisi had the idea of provoking her, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"A Fei, this child is five years old. Check to see if he has spiritual roots. If he does, we can bring him to the sect. It will be good for him to practice early."
Song Sisi didn't expect Ye Wenjuan to say such a thing, and she regretted it very much. She really shouldn't have been so successful. She had her current status entirely because he gave birth to a son. If her son was also taken away, what would she do?
Murong Fei hasn't come back for many years, and it is impossible for him to have another child. What can a woman without a husband and children get? The emperor is old, and it is impossible for Murong Fei to give up everything in the world of immortal cultivation and come back to inherit the throne. In the end, he gets nothing.
Murong Fei was also moved when he heard Ye Wenjuan's words. It was just as Song Sisi thought. He was not interested in the throne, and it was even more impossible for him to give up everything in the Hehuan Sect and come back. He let Song Sisi give birth to this child because he wanted to leave a thought for his mother, but his mother was old, and even with the elixir given by Ye Wenjuan, she would not live for many years.
Murong Fei took out a stone for testing spiritual roots from his space ring and asked the child to put his hand on the stone, but to their disappointment, the child had no spiritual roots, which made Song Sisi greatly relieved.
Murong Fei was a little disappointed. He looked at Ye Wenjuan and whispered,
"Wenjuan, let's have a baby too, okay? The child you give birth to will definitely have spiritual roots, unlike this one, which is just a waste."
Ye Wenjuan was very satisfied when she heard what Murong Fei said. She glanced at Song Sisi inconspicuously and wanted to provoke her. Who was abandoned now? If she didn't agree, Murong Fei would never let her give birth to the child. She was just an ignorant woman.
Murong Qianqian also saw Song Sisi provoking Ye Wenjuan, and looked down on her and said to her,
"Song Sisi, do you really think that you can provoke my sister-in-law just because you gave birth to a son for my brother? Don't say that you just gave birth to a useless son. Even if you gave birth to a child with spiritual roots, you are not qualified to provoke my sister-in-law. You are so stupid. The emperor's uncle has returned to Huayang City, but you still stay in the mansion with your useless son. You have offended the emperor's uncle, and this princess will not let you off."
Murong Qianqian's words made Song Sisi realize the stupidity of her actions, especially the fact that her son had no spiritual roots. Even if he could inherit the throne, how could he sit on that position if his father didn't help him?
At this moment, Song Sisi lowered her head and dared not say anything. Even her plan to use the child to win back Murong Fei was ruined by herself. She could only do nothing.
"Song Sisi, what has the emperor's uncle done these days since he came back? Do you know any news?"
Murong Qianqian was worried about what Murong Xin was doing this time and wanted to find out some information.
“After the Prince Regent came back, he took the men and women who came back with him to play in the city almost every day, especially that woman, and he doted on her in every way.
He also took many of the princess's clothes and jewelry from the palace and gave them to that woman. Even the pair of pearl hairpins prepared for the princess were taken away by her.
Song Sisi told all the news she had heard in the past few days. As for the last piece of news, it was also true, but Murong Xin saw it and took it away.
Murong Qianqian was angry when she heard what Song Sisi said, but she had also learned to endure it after so many years in the world of cultivation.
"Brother, do you think the emperor's uncle likes that woman and wants to marry her?"
Murong Qianqian's words wavered Murong Fei's mind and confirmed his thoughts.
"Perhaps your guess is right. Otherwise, why would he come back now? Let's go ask Father after we return to the palace."
Ye Wenjuan and the others listened to the conversation between the brother and sister and became confused.
Is that really the case?
