Reborn ten times, she is the real daughter of the Marquis Mansion and she doesn't pretend anymo

After Xiao Fei finished speaking, he stole a glance at Yun Xuanmo twice, but no one else looked at Yun Xuanmo, obviously they already knew about this matter.

However, Yuntang looked at Xiao Beichen, opened his mouth, but finally held back and said nothing.

Xiao Beichen smiled at Yun Tang and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Xiao Tang'er, Third Senior Brother won't let anyone bully your Ninth Senior Brother."

Then, Xiao Beichen looked at Xiao Fei and ordered, "Ignore him and we'll talk about it next time."

Thinking of something, Xiao Beichen looked at Xiao Che again: "Tomorrow, you will lead the officials in the ritual of worshiping the Kitchen God."

The imperial court would hold a ceremony to worship the Kitchen God on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month every year, which was also a way to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings.

This day was also the Little New Year for the Great Xia Dynasty. People would worship the Kitchen God, not cook but prepare food or cold food in advance, and resume their daily lives on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Of course, there are deviations in folk customs in different places, but the imperial court would lead the emperor and all officials to preside over the ceremony on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to show solemnity.

This year, Xiao Beichen has ordered the crown prince to govern the country, so naturally the crown prince will also attend this court ceremony.

Xiao Beichen instructed Crown Prince Xiao Che about things to pay attention to during tomorrow's Kitchen God Festival, and put aside the memorials that Duke Dingguo had been submitting in the past few days requesting the title of Crown Prince.

Yun Xuanmo didn't react at all, as if Duke Dingguo was not his father, and he was not curious about which son Duke Dingguo wanted to be the crown prince.

But they all knew that Duke Dingguo had submitted many petitions for titles over the years, and had also requested titles in person in front of the emperor many times, but they were all rejected by Xiao Beichen.

Xiao Beichen's reason was: The throne is passed down to the eldest son, so aren't you, a mere duke, special?

In recent years, among all the living dukes, the least favored one is Duke Dingguo. Although he is a first-class duke, he has no real job, does not lead troops, and does not guard the border.

Even his two legitimate sons could not get along with the princes, and they did not follow their ancestor's martial arts training and instead chose the path of scholars.

The son who was insisted by Duke Dingguo to be the crown prince was already eighteen years old. He studied in the Imperial College but failed to pass the examination to become a scholar. He was a dandy who liked to pretend to be cultured.

The younger one is only ten years old and studies at Chengbei Academy.

Duke Dingguo understood what the emperor meant, but it was a pity that his eldest son had been missing since he was a child and there was no way to find him.

There was no news of death, and the direct request to confer a title on the second legitimate son was not approved by the emperor, so he could only continue to submit the request twice a year.

However, even Xiao Fei, who now specializes in reading memorials in the Imperial Study, knows that when he encounters the memorial from Duke Dingguo requesting a title, he can simply ignore it.

After everyone finished their meal, they prepared for today’s ritual to exorcise evil spirits.

Yuntang has too much accumulated cursed energy that has not been completely cleared away. Although Yun Xuanmo has shared a lot of it in return, it needs to be cleared away as soon as possible so that the eyes of both of them can truly return to normal.

There are red-robed and green-robed people led by a true Taoist, and a dozen guards are still there, so there are enough manpower.

However, Yun Xuanmo did not let Yun Tang go to the quiet room. The two continued to meditate face to face, which made it more convenient for them to control each other's residual spell power at any time.

He truly mastered the use of the same fate spell without taking any detours.

Xiao Fei tested it again. There was no reaction when their eyes met. The defensive magic weapon and the protective jade also had no reaction.

Xiao Fei even reached out and pinched Junior Uncle's cheek, and was glared at by Ninth Uncle, but he was still safe and sound.

"Alright, you little brat, you dared to pinch your junior master's face, you're really asking for a beating, why don't you go and read the memorial!"

Xiao Beichen was standing aside, scolding his son for being a troublemaker, and kicked him out gently.

Xiao Che and Gu Yifang looked at Xiao Fei coldly, thinking that this boy knew how to provoke.

Xiao Fei also knew that his mission here was completed. He smiled awkwardly, bowed to Yun Tang and Yun Xuanmo, said "Junior apprentice, you are wrong", turned around and slipped away.

If he didn't leave, his father would kick him again.

The subsequent rituals took about the same amount of time as the previous ones, but progressed much faster. After each ritual, the progress was judged by the color of Yun Tang and Yun Xuanmo’s eyes.

Until both of their eyes were only a very light pink, even the color of eyes that had been crying would be a little redder than their current color.

Yun Tang said: "There are not many left. I can retreat on my own."

Yun Xuanmo shook his head: "While everyone is here, we should solve this problem once and for all."

Don’t they still want to go to the Western Territory? Of course, the sooner they recover, the safer it will be.

Yuntang then obediently accepted the next ritual.

It was exactly noon, and almost no merit or Tao rhythm was consumed, and the final progress was completed with only thunder talismans and formations.

Seeing that the two people's eyes had indeed returned to their previous appearance, and a careful observation could not find a trace of red, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"You two should retreat and recover well in the next two days. If you find anything unusual, let me know in time." Xiao Beichen reminded.

Yun Tang and Yun Xuanmo nodded in agreement, but their eyes turned to the Seven Star Fate Knot on their wrists at the same time.

Yun Xuanmo stretched out his slender but sickly pale fingers and gently stroked the knot of life that the little one had woven for him, knowing that his and her hair were inside.

Now he has woken up, the death curse has been removed, and the Seven Star Fate Knot has completed its mission, but...

Yun Tang looked at Senior Brother Nine stroking the Seven-Star Fate Knot on his wrist with her eyes downcast, not knowing what he was thinking. She also had an indescribable complex emotion in her heart.

Staring at him without realizing it.

Yun Xuanying glanced at the two people who were still sitting in the formation in a daze, winked at Xiao Beichen, and the two of them went to the yard outside to talk in private.

Yizhen Taoist and his companions returned to the Sanqing Hall to recite the Blessing Sutra and the Purity Sutra, which officially ended the ritual. They then prepared to return to Yunshang Temple in the afternoon.

The guards cleaned up the talisman ashes in the formation, but they did not dare to disturb Uncle Nine and Uncle Junior who were in a daze, so they left quickly after they were done.

They went to the corner outside before they dared to discuss in a low voice, but they all understood the dazed mood of Ninth Senior Brother and Junior Uncle.

After so much effort, so much busy time, and so many dangers and efforts, we finally solved this life and death problem completely. Who wouldn't feel complicated?

After a long while, Yun Xuanmo finally looked up at the opposite side, and saw a pitiful little face...

"Tangtang, will the curse of sharing fate be lifted by taking off the knot of sharing fate?" Yun Xuanmo asked with a helpless smile.

Yuntang nodded obediently.

"If you don't take it off, will the curse of the same life always exist? Will it have any impact?" Yun Xuanmo asked again.

Yun Tang thought about it and said objectively: "It doesn't have much impact. Maybe they will affect each other during cultivation."

"For example, I have some skills that I cannot display to their full potential with my current body, but if you practice with the Life-Sharing Curse, you may be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"If we fight, our tacit understanding will be even higher than when we were kids. If there's any damage, we can share it with each other. That's how I shared the power of the Death Curse before."

Yun Tang briefly talked about the pros and cons of the existence of the same-life curse... Obviously the pros outweigh the cons. At least what she said made Yun Xuanmo somewhat interested.
