Chapter 187: Arriving at the County Lord’s Mansion

Chapter 187 Return to the County Lord’s Mansion

But it turns out that the reason why Chu Yuan slowly returned to Beijing was to find Xiangyangzi from Xuanduguan and clear Xia Keyu's innocence.

Therefore, when Xiangyangzi appeared, all the emperor's doubts about Xia Keyu disappeared.

Now that he heard that Xiangyangzi offered to compete with Master Zhiyun, the emperor could only agree.

The emperor stroked his sparse gray beard, pondered for a moment and said:

"There has been a drought in Beijing for a long time. How about you two calculate when it will rain in Beijing?" The implication is that the outcome will be determined by whoever calculates accurately.

After saying that, he told Xiao Lizi on the side: "Xiao Lizi, give me a seat and give the two masters the pen and ink."

Xiao Lizi responded, asked someone to bring tables and chairs for the two of them, and handed the pen and paper to the two of them.

After Xiangyangzi took the paper and pen, he just closed his eyes, took out three copper coins from his sleeve, shook them slightly, and arranged them on the table one by one.

This move aroused the emperor's curiosity. Even Xia Keyu stretched his neck to see how the Taoist priest performed divination.

At the same time, she racked her brains desperately, thinking about the information in her mind about when it would rain during this time in her previous life, thinking that she might be able to help this Xiangyangzi.

But unfortunately there are too many things in the original body's mind, and it is impossible to remember such a small thing.

Seeing Xiangyangzi carefully studying the hexagrams on the table, he immediately picked up the brush and wrote a line of words on the paper.

He just blew the wet ink on the paper gently, and then handed the paper to the little eunuch beside him, signaling the little eunuch to hand it to the emperor.

On the other side, Zhiyun was very panicked. She didn't know anything about divination or fortune-telling, and she couldn't even read Buddhist scriptures.

In the past few years as a nun, what she was best at was going to local wealthy families to beg for alms. With her eloquent tongue, she got a lot of money.

Only a small part of the money was used to buy lamp oil for the temple, and Zhiyun kept most of the rest.

Seeing that Xiangyangzi had finished writing, and everyone's eyes turned to him, Zhiyun was anxious because his palms were sweating, but he couldn't show it.

She could only pretend to be calm and write a moment on the paper, then folded the paper and handed it to the little eunuch.

Both papers were sent to the emperor for review. The emperor only looked at them slightly, with a smile on his lips.

He said loudly: "The time calculated by Taoist Master Xiangyang is a quarter past noon three days later, and it will rain in the southern suburbs of the capital. But Master Zhiyun wrote that it will rain five days later, at a quarter past three o'clock."

When Zhiyun heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was already making other plans.

Seeing this, the emperor said nicely: "In that case, please go back and rest first. The Lord of Yong'an County and Duke Chu are probably tired, so please go back."

After coming out of the emperor's study room, Xia Keyu finally felt relaxed and able to walk with strength.

"Are you feeling better?" Chu Yuan asked with concern upon seeing this.

Xia Keyu nodded.

Just now she was in the Imperial Study Room, feeling oppressed all over her body and feeling uncomfortable anywhere.It was not because he was afraid that his true identity would be discovered, but because he was overwhelmed by Xiangyangzi's aura and was a little out of breath.

She was originally a six-tailed fox. She had failed to escape the tribulation before, was seriously injured, and had no magic power.The damaged soul has never fully recovered. Now that he is in the same room with a practitioner as profound as Xiang Yangzi, he will naturally feel invisible pressure.

Chu Yuan personally sent Xia Keyu back, and the two sat in the carriage.

Chu Yuan saw that she looked a little tired between her brows and eyes, so he reached out and put her head on his shoulders, saying softly:
"Sleep a while."

Xia Keyu leaned on Chu Yuan's shoulder, her nose lingering on Chu Yuan's faint fresh air, but she had no intention of absorbing it.

Xia Keyu's mind was full of other questions. Xiangyangzi was a highly capable virtuous man invited by Chu Yuan. Will he see through his true identity?Will you tell Chu Yuan everything?
Thinking of this, Xia Keyu felt a little sad and couldn't help but close his eyes.

After a while, the county chief's mansion arrived.Seeing that she was worried, Chu Yuan comforted Xia Keyu: "Don't worry, just go back and rest. Xiangyangzi will not fail."

Xia Keyu nodded, forced a smile towards Chu Yuan, and then got out of the car.

Chu Yuan stared at the woman's retreating back, his eyes gradually deepening, then he came back to his senses and ordered the driver: "Go back to the house."

He is going to see Xiangyangzi.

Xia Keyu appeared in the county lord's mansion safe and sound, and all the maids in the mansion ran out.

Qingya and Honghong, as well as Dongxian, Woad and others, all gathered around Xia Keyu, chattering and asking how Xia Keyu came back and what happened to him that day, but he was wronged.

Even Chun Nuan, who always had a cold face, could see a look of concern between his eyebrows.

Qing Ya couldn't help wiping her tears while going back and forth to check on Xia Keyu.

Seeing this, Xia Keyu joked: "Miss, if I'm not here, all you can do is wipe your tears?"

Crimson and Qingya, who were on the side, had a better relationship and couldn't help but say:

"The young lady doesn't know that during the day when the young lady was away, Sister Qingya kept a straight face and managed the house in an orderly manner. Everyone was afraid of her and said she was like a seasoned housekeeper."

Xia Keyu heard the sound and nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, among the maids, Qingya was younger. It was just because she was always by his side that Xia Keyu made her the eldest maid.

Unexpectedly, Qingya 7 managed the house well this time when he was not in the house.Immediately he praised: "Yes, the green buds have grown up."

Qing Ya was a little embarrassed to receive Xia Keyu's praise. She blushed and pretended to be angry:

"You scarlet red, how dare you arrange me in front of the lady and call me old~"

As she said that, she made a move to tear off Scarlet Hong's clothes. Scarlet Hong hurriedly dodged to avoid her. Other maids came up to stop the two of them, and they got into a group jokingly.

Xia Keyu saw it in his eyes, and the sorrow just now was swept away.

Qingya on the side suddenly stopped, slapped his head, and blamed himself:
"It's all my fault that I'm fooling around with you. I forgot that the lady hasn't eaten yet. Quick, woad, run to the kitchen and let the lady stew her favorite chicken."

"Chun Nuan, run fast and go outside to break some willow branches for the lady."

"Dong Xian, go bring a basin of water over."

"Crimson, go and light some charcoal fire and help the young lady step on the brazier."

Qing Ya commanded in an orderly manner, and the maids who had been gathered together dispersed in an instant, each doing their own thing.

Qingya then said to Xia Keyu: "Miss, wait a moment, I will ask someone to remove the bad luck for the lady. From now on, the lady will be safe and smooth."

After a while, Chun Nuan and others came back again.

Qing Ya took a willow branch and dipped it in water, and sprinkled it all over Xia Keyu. While sprinkling it, she muttered in her mouth: "The bad luck will be removed, and the lady will be safe and smooth~"

Scarlet Hong came out with a red burning charcoal basin and looked at Xia Keyu eagerly, expecting her to step over.

Xia Keyu looked at this group of people and felt a silent warmth in his heart.

So what if she is not the original person, these people are really nice to her.
