How long has it been? Are you still alive?

She is worthy of being the reincarnation of the Goddess of Flowers. She is so powerful, isn’t she? She has so many treasures that cannot be sustained without her?

The nine-color lotus root is the most precious treasure of the earth sect. There may be only one plant in the world. It matures once every sixty years, and the lotus seeds it produces can enlighten all things.

Tai Ping Dao was thus promoted to the ranks of peerless magic weapons.

And now, there are two nine-color lotus roots, one in heaven and earth, and one in his hand.

"In terms of rarity, among my treasures, the nine-color lotus root ranks among the top three. Even the peace knife is not comparable to it. The fragments of the book from the earth are just fragments. Currently, they have no other effect except for passing the book and storing it.

.........In other words, Qi Luck and Shenshu are ranked higher than Lotus Root.

"Uh, no, I have to ask if it can continue to grow and produce lotus seeds..."

Swallowing quietly, Xu Qian suppressed his ecstasy, lay down by the water tank, took a look, and said with a smile:

"Princess, I never thought that you are so good at growing flowers. You can even support this treasure. Well, can it grow? Can it produce lotus seeds?"

The princess said calmly: "It is a natural law for plants and trees to take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruit."

What she meant was that lotus roots could bear lotus seeds and grow from a small section into a large root? Xu Qian was ecstatic.

Then can you induce it... He didn't ask, he held back, because it would be too naked, and it would be equivalent to revealing the princess's identity as the reincarnation of the Flower God.

This will cause the widow to panic.

"I don't know how long it will take for it to grow. I will need to use it in a while..."

Xu Qian pretended to be emotional.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the princess licking her red lips, as if hesitating, and then she made up her mind and said, "It's growing well, it won't take long."

As expected, my widow was able to induce the growth of lotus roots, and the princess, a fish, suddenly became the king of fish in my pond...Xu Qian was delighted and joked.

The nine-color lotus root's spiritual power is weak now, but as it grows, its spiritual power will become stronger and stronger. I have to ask Yang Qianhuan for help to arrange the spirit trapping circle, so that even if an expert passes by here, he will not be able to sense it.

Spiritual power......Xu Qi'an said.

He walked around the yard and the house, and found everything he should have, nothing missing, nothing missing, and nothing damaged.

When I arrived at the princess's master bedroom, I originally wanted to see if there were any termites on the furniture and beams. A while ago, my aunt just ordered the servants at home to apply termite repellent powder on the beams, furniture and other wooden items.

Women can't do these things, Xu Qi'an still has to do it himself.

As soon as they entered the house, the princess caught up with her from behind. She anxiously gathered up the few clothes and bellybands hanging on the screen and stuffed them into the quilt.

The young princess's face was slightly red, and she tried her best to pretend that nothing had happened.

It's not like I haven't seen your bellyband before...Xu Qi'an thought for a while and asked: "By the way, why haven't I seen you hanging clothes?"

There was not a single piece of clothing in the yard. It stands to reason that in the hot summer, people should bathe and change clothes frequently. How come there was not a single piece of clothing in the yard?

"I asked Aunt Zhang to wash it for me."

Mu Nanzhi let out a breath, sat on the edge of the bed, raised her buttocks and pressed the small clothes under the quilt, pretending to adjust the hem of her skirt, and said: "Her son has not received any money for two months, no, not a penny.

"I saw that she was really in a pinch, so I asked her to help me starch and wash my clothes, paying an extra 20% of the copper coins."

"Do you still remember the principle that wealth should not be revealed?" Xu Qian reminded.

"Of course I remember, you taught me." The princess hummed, her smile revealing a sly look, "I deliberately showed her the money box I hid in the closet. I only had one tael of silver, and it was all broken silver and copper coins.

"

He has made great progress, he is much smarter than before...Xu Qi'an nodded with satisfaction.

A woman living alone in the inner city has a savings of one or two silver coins, neither too much nor too little, which is below average.

In the morning, Xu Qian took her out for a stroll, visiting the downtown area, jewelry shops, and silk and satin shops. During this period, she fell in love with a silver hairpin, which cost five taels of silver.

And the jewelry on her head was of inferior quality worth one penny.

When she left the jewelry store, she followed Xu Qian step by step, turning back three times every step of the way, but she didn't ask for it.

After having lunch at the restaurant, the two of them returned home. Xu Qi'an took out the small mat and small round table from the house and played backgammon with her.

"You made the wrong move, you shouldn't have made this move." The princess said loudly.

"That's right, if I take this step, the next step will be like five stars in a row, and I will win against you."

"So you made the wrong move and you beat me, so how can you continue playing?"

"..."

.........

"Can I take two steps and you take one?"

"What do you think?"

........

"How can you just bully a weak woman?"

"I can't even bully a weak woman, how can I bully others?"

"No more playing!"

She threw away the chess piece angrily and turned sideways.

Viewed horizontally, there are ridges and peaks, with different heights and distances... Xu Qian's mind came up with this poem for no reason, and he took out the silver hairpin and placed it on the chessboard:

"For you."

She turned her eyes and glanced tentatively. Then, a smile quickly appeared on her face, and she held the silver hairpin happily.

Seeing Xu Qi'an's joking expression, the princess immediately straightened her face, straightened her back, and said reservedly: "I actually don't particularly like..."

"Then give it back to me." Xu Qian reached out and grabbed it.

The princess immediately hid the silver hairpin behind her back and said with a glare, "Just think of it as my reward for helping you raise lotus roots."

"That makes sense."

Xu Qian nodded with a smile and said in a casual tone: "This place is far away from the downtown area and the weather is hot. It's best not to stock up on vegetables at home. I'll help you check later and ask the salesman to deliver some fresh vegetables every morning."

There are many sellers in the city. They go to the market in the early morning to buy vegetables and fruits at low prices from vegetable farmers, and then select them into the inner city to provide them to wealthy people who don’t like to get up early and go out early.

The princess nodded.

Xu Qian was silent for a moment, and then said: "I may have to leave the capital in the future, and it won't be long. You, you... will you go with me, or stay here."

The princess snorted softly and said: "I won't go with you. The capital is so prosperous, why should I leave? When you leave one day, go and inform the Imperial Preceptor. She and I have a close friendship, and she will arrange for me

.”

Xu Qian was a little disappointed: "I will leave you a sum of money when the time comes."

The princess looked at him a few times but didn't respond.

After a moment, she whispered: "Is Emperor Yuan Jing going to deal with you?"

"Not yet, but I have a feeling it won't be long."

"This world belongs to his royal family, so it's okay to leave." The princess nodded and said softly:

"It's just that your cousin is now a concubine in the Hanlin Academy. Is he willing to follow you? Well, let me think about it, are you ready to find a backer for him?"

"You are quite smart." Xu Qian smiled.

The person Emperor Yuan Jing hated was him, not Xu Erlang. As long as he left and Xu Erlang had a solid backer, his future might be bleak, but his life would not be in danger.

Furthermore, since Xu Erlang had the support of Yunlu Academy behind him, Emperor Yuan Jing could at most dismiss him from office and demote him to a commoner.

"Whether you are smart or not depends on what you are doing. These days when I am living alone, I often feel that I am not smart enough. I am busy cooking and throwing a few bowls, which almost makes me cry."

The princess lamented: "Emperor Yuan Jing is a smart man, but sometimes he seems stupid. For the sake of illusory immortality, he gave up the beauties in the harem and his reputation, but he has been practicing Taoism for twenty years, but he has not cultivated any flowers."

Even stupid people know how to give up, right? The Imperial Master said that Yuan Jing has a strong obsession, but I don’t know where his obsession comes from."

"You have a good relationship with the Imperial Master?"

"She is the only woman in the capital who can speak her mind freely," the princess said with emotion.

It doesn't make sense, the Imperial Master seems to be quite smart, how can he have something in common with a stupid woman like you... Xu Qian cursed in her heart.

"But she is also a poor woman."

The princess smiled "hehehe" and said, "I'll tell you a secret, do you want to hear it?"

You look like a female gangster now... Xu Qian listened with all ears: "What secret."

"The Renzong practice method has a very terrible sequelae, which will make the practitioner haunted by karma, which occurs once a month. Those with low grades can resist it by their own will.

"But the higher the level, the more terrifying it will be when the karma fire burns the body. If you can't find a way to eliminate the karma fire, you will die." The princess lowered her voice, as if she was telling a huge secret.

.....Xu Qi'an looked at her expressionlessly: "I knew it a long time ago."

Taoist Master Jin Lian told him about the shortcomings of Renzong's practice of Kung Fu.

Each of the three Taoist sects has its own shortcomings. The human sect is plagued by karma, the earth sect can easily fall into the devil's way, and the heavenly sect is inhumane and cannot have any emotions.

The princess said "hey" twice more, like a female hooligan who said bad things, and whispered: "Then do you know how to solve it?"
