The Host in Quick Transmigration Always Wants to Break Her Character

Chapter 141 The Divine Physician and the Regent's Wife (3)

Then, a heavily made-up palace maid pretended to bump into Huangfu Yaoyu by accident, and then pretended to be in pain to see who had bumped into her.

Upon seeing that it was Huangfu Yaoyu, her round eyes blinked, a hint of panic flashing across them, before she knelt on the ground in fear and trepidation.

With a soft, trembling voice, she said, "This servant greets Your Majesty the Regent. I left in a hurry and disturbed Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The palace maid knelt with her hands raised above her head, her head resting on her hands, making it impossible to see her expression.

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Huangfu Yaoyu's eyes.

"As a palace maid, you should know the rules of the palace, so why are you rushing around in the palace? What has happened?"

If Lin Jingyi hadn't been there, Huangfu Yaoyu would have definitely dragged this palace maid away and beaten to death.

But at this moment, his image in front of Xie Yuan was that of a kind and filial person, so he could only suppress his inner rage and show some concern for the palace maid.

The palace maid's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, thinking that her beauty had won the favor of the regent.

She slowly raised her head, her expression tense.

"This servant...this servant did not do anything."

Despite saying this, the palace maid still inadvertently revealed the bruises on her arm.

Lin Jingyi took a closer look and realized the injury was real.

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yaoyu's disgust deepened, but he still held back and asked:

"Since nothing happened, you must not be so reckless next time. You may leave now."

Wounds? It's good enough that he didn't kill her; Huangfu Yaoyu didn't even see them.

The palace maids almost cried after hearing Huangfu Yaoyu's somewhat heartless words.

"Yes." She stood up, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Huangfu Yaoyu, completely ignoring Lin Jingyi's presence.

"Yaoyu, this palace maid seems to have something left to say?" Lin Jingyi said, looking at the palace maid who seemed hesitant to leave.

Veins bulged on Huangfu Yaoyu's forehead. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and smiled at Lin Jingyi, saying:

"In that case, if Yuan Yuan is interested, we can summon her for questioning."

Lin Jingyi shook his head: "This girl seems interested in you..."

"Yuan Yuan, what do you think of this palace?" Seeing the palace maid walk away unwillingly, Huangfu Yaoyu quickly changed the subject before Lin Jingyi could finish speaking.

Lin Jingyi deliberately paused for a moment, then said thoughtfully:

"The palace and the imperial court are magnificent and resplendent. The other palaces are also exquisite in every way. The flowers in this garden are breathtaking, and the artificial mountains can be made to look real."

"Does Yuan Yuan like it here?" Huangfu Yaoyu suppressed his displeasure and asked Lin Jingyi with a smile.

Lin Jingyi pondered for a moment, then said with a somewhat sorrowful expression:

"If the price of living here is losing my freedom, then I don't like it."

Xie Yuan had said the same thing to Huangfu Yaoyu before, but at the time Xie Yuan added, "If you were here, I would love this palace."

But Lin Jingyi didn't say that.

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yaoyu's eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly understood.

"Since Yuan Yuan doesn't like it, how about we travel the world together after my mother's poison is cured?"

Her gaze toward Lin Jingyi was full of love.

Looking into those affectionate eyes, Lin Jingyi felt a chill; indeed, affection could be faked.

At this moment, Lin Jingyi dared not confront Huangfu Yaoyu directly, and could only suppress his disgust and say with a look of joy:

"Is what Yaoyu said true?"

"Of course, Yuan Yuan, please don't look down on me, a complete novice in the martial arts world." With that, Huangfu Yaoyu naturally embraced Lin Jingyi.

Xie Yuan was probably captivated by Huangfu Yaoyu's devastatingly handsome face and his alluring demeanor.

"This is also my first time leaving the Medical Valley, and I don't know anything about the martial world." Lin Jingyi was forced to press his face against Huangfu Yaoyu's chest.

She wanted to give this good fortune to the palace maid from earlier!

"It's alright, we'll face the challenges together from now on." Huangfu Yaoyu looked at Lin Jingyi, took her hand, and continued walking forward.

"Just like now, I'm holding your hand."

Lin Jingyi had become a little thick-skinned after completing a few tasks, but Huangfu Yaoyu's hugs and hand-holding had already made his ear tips burn red.

"it is good."

Lin Jingyi answered in a low voice, feigning shyness.

Huangfu Yaoyu seemed to be in a good mood, chuckling softly as he led Lin Jingyi back to her residence. After seeing Lin Jingyi inside, he turned back and gave her a word of advice.

"Yuan Yuan, get some rest. We'll set off for the Valley of Divine Healers early tomorrow morning."

"Are you going too?" Lin Jingyi didn't want Huangfu Yaoyu to go with him.

Huangfu Yaoyu said with concern, "If I don't go with you, how can I feel at ease letting you go alone?"

As he spoke, he touched the top of Lin Jingyi's head.

“I know Yaoyu is worried about me, but although the Empress Dowager’s poisoning has been stabilized, there is no guarantee that there will be no unexpected situations. Right now, the palace still needs you.”

Lin Jingyi directly brought up Nalan Zhimeng, she didn't believe Huangfu Yaoyu would still insist on going.

Huangfu Yaoyu originally planned to go with Xie Yuan to express his love and care for her.

But upon hearing that Zhimeng might still be in danger, he couldn't trust anyone in the palace.

So he pretended to be in a difficult position, looked at Lin Jingyi without saying anything, hoping that Xie Yuan would tell him to stay.

Lin Jingyi guessed Huangfu Yaoyu's thoughts and smiled understandingly:

"The palace still needs you to take charge. The murderer who poisoned the Empress Dowager has not yet been found, and it is hard to guarantee that the person will not poison the Empress Dowager a second time."

"I hope you will stay in the palace and take care of your mother."

“But I’m worried about you going alone.” Huangfu Yaoyu frowned, his heart already leaning towards Nalan Zhimeng, but his face still showed difficulty and reluctance.

"I'm just a江湖人 (jianghu person, someone from the martial arts world), what danger could I possibly be in?" Lin Jingyi said casually, but seeing that he still had a furrowed brow, he continued:

"If you're worried, you can send a few people to accompany me."

"Okay... then I'll wait for you to come back." Huangfu Yaoyu was waiting for Lin Jingyi to say this. He not only wanted to send people to follow him openly, but also to send people secretly.

Xie Yuan is the only one who can save Zhi Meng now. If Xie Yuan is injured or finds out that his feelings for her are fake, he will definitely be unable to heal Zhi Meng.

"Okay, you go back now. I'll pack my things. It's still early, I'll leave this afternoon." Lin Jingyi nodded hurriedly, she wanted to leave the palace as soon as possible.

"Let's go first thing tomorrow morning. It's still uncertain whether Mother's condition has stabilized. You can check on her again this afternoon."

Huangfu Yaoyu dared not be careless about Nalan Zhimeng's matter.

"That's fine too." Lin Jingyi thought for a moment and realized there was no difference. If she insisted any longer, the other party would notice her eagerness.

"Then I'll leave?" Huangfu Yaoyu said, feigning reluctance.

"Let's go." Lin Jingyi waved his hand.

Seeing Huangfu Yaoyu turn around, she closed the door, afraid that he would come in and sit down.

No wonder the original owner reincarnated without watching her do her mission. Seeing that affectionate and handsome face, she really couldn't control herself.

She was also glad that the original owner of this body wasn't coming back. If the original owner had watched her and her beloved fall in love, Lin Jingyi felt that the relationship would have been impossible to continue.

Thinking that there was still plenty of time, Lin Jingyi sat cross-legged on the bed.

Last night, she had great difficulty absorbing spiritual energy at first. After circulating it for several cycles, the spiritual root of this body finally manifested.

Lin Jingyi hadn't expected that this body would actually have a single metal spiritual root.

This spiritual root has a very strong attack power, and Lin Jingyi was very happy.

She is now trying to combine the Cosmic Technique with cultivation techniques.

Fortunately, the two cultivation paths did not conflict, and Lin Jingyi's cultivation went very smoothly.

She activated the Cosmic Technique to increase her energy absorption, and also activated her cultivation techniques; she was now only absorbing spiritual energy.

This is even faster than last night.

This discovery delighted Lin Jingyi.

By analogy, if we combine the techniques for absorbing other energies with the Cosmic Technique, wouldn't we be able to quickly absorb other energies?

Her hypothesis cannot be verified yet; she can only do more tasks and gradually verify her ideas.

Before she knew it, Lin Jingyi had been cultivating all morning. At noon, someone called her to have lunch, so Lin Jingyi had to stop cultivating and go eat.

He then returned and continued his cultivation.

Xie Yuan's martial arts skills are not impressive; he has no internal energy and only knows a little bit of basic skills.

Lin Jing also needs to cultivate faster and defeat the people Huangfu Yaoyu sent to follow her in order to escape.

Her strength is very weak now, so she needs to work harder to cultivate.

In the afternoon, Nalan Zhimeng woke up and sent someone to summon Lin Jingyi. Lin Jingyi had no choice but to stop his cultivation and go to Nalan Zhimeng's bedroom.

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager." Upon arriving at the destination, Lin Jingyi bowed to Nalan Zhimeng as he had done that morning.

At this moment, Nalan Zhimeng was already sitting in a chair, with a concubine next to her. Lin Jingyi did not recognize her, so he did not bow.

The concubine didn't seem to have any objections, but she looked at Lin Jingyi with disdain, appearing superior.

"Miss Xie, there's no need for such formalities. Please have a seat."

"Thank you." Upon hearing this, Lin Jingyi sat down on a chair to the side, staring at Nalan Zhimeng, waiting for her to continue.

Nalan Zhimeng had a smile on her face. Since Xie Yuan had given her acupuncture that morning, the pain from the poisoning had disappeared. She felt that she could make Xie Yuan her friend.

After she woke up, Huangfu Yaoyu sat by her bedside and told her about her plans.

Although she was also a woman, Nalan Zhimeng sympathized with Xie Yuan, but it was for her own happiness, so she only verbally reprimanded Huangfu Yaoyu.

Right now, all we can do is make it up to Miss Xie.

“Miss Xie, I was poisoned and had no hope of survival, but Miss Xie gave me hope.” Nalan Zhimeng’s words were sincere and her gratitude came from the bottom of her heart.

Then he beckoned to another palace maid, who carried a tray and placed it on the table next to Lin Jingyi.

“These are just a small token of my appreciation, and I hope Miss Xie will accept them,” Nalan Zhimeng said to Lin Jingyi.

The tray contained not only gold and jewelry, but also silver notes.

This is Nalan Zhimeng's gratitude, and also her debt to Lin Jingyi.

Huangfu Yaoyu has already told her the whole plan. Once she is cured of the poison, she will be Xie Yuan...

Although she initially disagreed with the plan, Nalan Zhimeng was moved by the thought of being with Huangfu Yaoyu in the future.
