The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

Chapter 1958 Forgotten Heavenly Secrets

Sheng Xiaohan only understood half of what she heard.

"Never heard of it."

"That's probably one of the possibilities."

"So, you mean he might have experienced something that caused his appearance and lifespan to remain unchanged, and he won't die?"

Sheng Xiaohan was very surprised.

"Well, it's possible."

hiss.

Sheng Xiaohan gasped.

"So even if he really wants to be with you, you will likely grow older day by day, but he won't change. When you are old and gray and your teeth have fallen out, he will still be the same as he is now."

Lu Zhaoling frankly told her about this possibility.

Sheng Xiaohan fell silent.

Even after Qingyin and Qingbao made up her bed and Lu Zhaoling saw her to the door, she still looked confused.

"Okay, let's go to sleep first, and think about it again when we wake up tomorrow."

"Thank you, Master."

Lu Zhaoling led Qingyin and Qingbao towards the backyard.

"The Crown Prince, oh no, the Emperor, is still drinking?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

"Yes, I just warmed up two more pots of wine and sent them over," Qingyin said.

Qingbao quickly added, "Your Highness, don't worry, the Prince hasn't drunk any. It seems Qinglin is drunk, so Qingfeng is drinking for him now."

"Qinglin's drinking capacity is not even as good as the Emperor's?" Lu Zhaoling was somewhat surprised.

"Qinglin can't speak, so he just drinks cup after cup. Maybe that's how he gets drunk more easily," Qingbao said, suppressing a laugh.

Lu Zhaoling felt a little sorry for Qinglin, who had been silenced by acupuncture and forced to drink with others.

She returned to the small flower room in the backyard, where the smell of alcohol was very strong.

Although the doors and windows were open, they had drunk too much, and the smell of alcohol was really strong.

She immediately took a purification talisman and threw it out, and the air here instantly became much fresher.

Zhou Shiyue was immediately invigorated.

He narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw her return.

For some reason, it seemed as if I could see a few wisps of faint black energy swirling around Lu Zhaoling's body.

The black aura was unlike anything I had ever seen before; it was a deep, dark black, completely devoid of any other impurities.

But it doesn't look like something bad.

Lu Zhaoling sensed something when she met his gaze.

She stopped and didn't walk to their side, but instead looked down at herself.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear.

She exclaimed "Eh!" and then took out a purification talisman and patted it on herself.

The black aura hadn't completely dissipated; it had only faded a little.

This surprised Lu Zhaoling even more.

Where did this come from?

How come ordinary purification talismans can't purify it?

Or is it that it wasn't "dirty" to begin with, so it doesn't need to be purified?

Seeing this, Zhou Shiyue stood up, walked slowly to her, and hugged her with both arms.

"I read your name Zhou Shiyue..."

Lu Zhaoling instinctively wanted to push him away.

Because of the look in his eyes just now, she felt that he must have seen the black aura. Since he saw it, why did he still dare to hug her like that?

But before she could finish speaking, she saw Zhou Shiyue's golden light gently envelop her, and the few wisps of black energy slowly dissipated under the golden light until they disappeared without a trace.

Lu Zhaoling was stunned for a moment.

"See, I'm not useless after all, right?" Zhou Shiyue didn't see the golden light on his body, but he saw the black aura dissipate after he hugged her.

He had just wanted to test whether Lu Zhaoling's merits, which she always used to drain, actually had a restraining effect on him.

And it really worked!

"That's amazing." Lu Zhaoling gave him a thumbs up.

"Royal Uncle, Royal Aunt..." Zhou Ze's tone was already drawn out with a heavy languidness, sounding somewhat drunk. "I can't drink anymore. I've had enough for today. I need to rest. Tomorrow, I have to go to court tomorrow."

It's less than two hours before the court session begins.

He's finally had enough to drink.

"Quickly send the Emperor to rest," Lu Zhaoling said.

"Aunt, from now on, just call me by my name. Don't call me 'Your Majesty,' it sounds too formal." Zhou Ze heard her words, stood up unsteadily, looked at her, and said earnestly.

"I called you Zhou Ze?"

"it is good."

Zhou Ze originally wanted to say that calling him A Ze would be fine. But then he suddenly remembered that his aunt often called his uncle by his full name, which didn't sound too formal.

Therefore, it's fine for her to call him by his full name.

The name Zhou Ze sounded much better when she called it out.

"Help him to sleep," Zhou Shiyue said to Qingfeng.

"Yes."

Zhou was helped out by Qingfeng.

Lu Zhaoling glanced at Qinglin, who was lying motionless on the table. "What should we do with him?"

"Someone will come to help him out in a bit. Don't worry about him."

Zhou Shiyue said to Qingyin and Qingbao, "Prepare some hot water."

"Yes."

Qingyin and Qingbao quickly ran out.

Zhou Shiyue led Lu Zhaoling towards their courtyard.

“At this time, have them prepare hot water…” Lu Zhaoling pinched him.

Zhou Shiyue was both amused and exasperated.

"Look, you're getting the wrong idea again. I spent half the day drinking with Zhou Ze. Even if I didn't drink, I still smell of alcohol on me. Shouldn't I wash up?"

Lu Zhaoling: "......"

She had indeed misunderstood.

"Besides, I have to attend court in a little over an hour. What can I possibly do at this hour?"

Zhou Shiyue asked, "Who was that just now?"

"Come Qian Dingxing."

Lu Zhaoling told him about the child ghost, and Zhou Shiyue didn't know what to say for a moment.

So, is there an unknown little ghost in the Prince's mansion that can devour the Ghost Abyss's evil mist?

"Don't worry, I'll take him to Huaiyuan and hand him over to my eldest brother as soon as it's light."

The next morning, Yin Yunting woke up exceptionally early.

He glanced at the sky; it was just beginning to get light.

But for some reason, he dreamed about his senior sister last night.

Moreover, he dreamt that his senior sister was smiling at him without saying a word.

He finished tidying up and went out to the front yard.

Rong Jingjing woke up even earlier and was already preparing breakfast.

Good morning, Senior Brother.

"morning."

Yin Yunting paused, "Was someone here last night?"

He didn't come out last night and didn't see Qian Dingxing, but now that he's standing here, he feels a strange aura.

"They don't look human," Rong Jingjing said after thinking for a moment. "Xiao Han brought them. They went to the Prince's Mansion to find Senior Sister overnight."

Yin Yunting reached out and grabbed a handful of air.

What appeared to others as grasping a handful of air was actually grasping a few wisps of black mist remaining in the air.

He hadn't seen it clearly before, but now that he'd grabbed it, the black energy dispersed, and his palm felt cold.

Yin Yunting still felt a sense of familiarity.

"I think Senior Sister will come today."

He had barely finished speaking when Lu Zhaoling came in.

"Senior Brother, you're up so early today? Waiting for me?" Lu Zhaoling was quite surprised to see Yin Yunting standing in the courtyard as soon as she entered the gate.

She was holding the black umbrella in her hands.

Yin Yunting did not answer, his gaze fixed on the black umbrella.
