Throughout the day, the two sisters were immersed in the joy of counting their belongings.
Queen Mother Yin gave Yu Jiujiu a city.
Emperor Xuanping gave Yujiujiu a county.
Queen Ning gave Yu Jiujiu the title deed to a villa in the capital.
Concubine De gave Yu Jiujiu a bank note that could be withdrawn at will. With this note, she could spend as much as she wanted at major restaurants and shops in the capital. She could spend as much money as Concubine De had deposited in the bank.
The beautiful lady was also very generous with her gifts. Through her, the Jiang family gave Yu Jiujiu ten shops in the most profitable areas of the capital...
In just one day, Yu Jiujiu became a little rich woman.
She held her chin with her little hand and began to worry about how she should spend so much money.
She also owned a lot of spiritual stones in her previous life. The spiritual stones in the world of cultivation can not only be used to buy magic weapons and other things, but also the spiritual energy in them can be absorbed for cultivation.
But the money in this world seems to be spent or kept.
Yu Jiujiu doesn't have a hoarding habit. She thinks there is no point in just hoarding so much money.
But if she spent it, she didn't seem to have anything she wanted to buy, and spending money indiscriminately felt like a waste.
For a while, this problem really bothered her.
She was still thinking about this issue until she was lying on the bed holding the quilt.
"Princess, haven't you slept peacefully yet?" At this time, a clear and pleasant young voice suddenly came into my ears.
Yu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment when he heard the sound, and then got up from the bed happily.
"Brother, National Master!"
Following her surprise call, Pei Shuyan's figure appeared from the window.
He wore a snow-white cloak with a red crown, blue feathers and white crane embroidered on the hem, and a circle of white fox fur around his neck and shoulders, which made his temperament even colder and jade-like.
At this time, Pei Shuyan opened the window from outside and jumped in.
"Brother Imperial Master, where have you been these days? Do you know that a lot of things have happened in the palace! Chu Mian has been executed! Now he is still in prison, and he cannot survive or die! Chu Liu has been executed
Beheaded!"
Yu Jiujiu couldn't wait to tell Pei Shuyan everything that happened these days.
The corners of Pei Shuyan's lips were slightly pursed, and there was a slight chill all over his body, but there was an invisible warmth hidden in his eyes.
"Well, I already know everything." He sat down at the round table a little away from Yu Jiujiu, looked at her gently, and explained, "The sect had something to do, so I went back to deal with it, thinking that the New Year is coming.
, so I hurried back all night, but unexpectedly, I still missed New Year’s Eve.”
As he spoke, he took out a brocade box from his large sleeve robe.
"Princess, this is a New Year's gift for you. May you be healthy, happy, and grow up safely."
Pei Shuyan said his congratulations gently and handed the brocade box to Yu Jiujiu.
Yu Jiujiu opened it and had a look of surprise on her face: "What a big luminous pearl!"
Pei Shuyan's eyebrows widened: "As long as the princess likes it."
Yu Jiujiu hugged Ye Mingzhu and was very happy: "I like it!"
Although this night pearl was not as expensive as the ones given to her by the Queen Mother and Emperor Xuanping, Yu Jiujiu felt that among all the gifts she received today, this was the only one that could be used immediately and make her feel useful!
She held the night pearl and couldn't put it down.
Suddenly something occurred to him, and he quickly looked at Pei Shuyan and asked, "Have you finished dealing with the affairs of the sect of the national master's brother? Is it difficult? Do you want to leave again?"
She asked again and again, with a trace of obvious nervousness on her porcelain white face, as if she was afraid that Pei Shuyan would leave again.
Pei Shuyan heard this and shook his head slowly: "I won't leave for the time being. The sect's affairs are not very difficult. It's just that there are a few traitors and they have been dealt with."
When he thought of those traitors, a cold and stern light flashed in his eyes.
Someone actually bribed several elders of the Tongtian Yan Sect and asked them to cast a spell to steal the little princess's good fortune and transfer the bad luck to the little princess...
Fortunately, his father found out in time and recalled him quickly.
Otherwise, we really have to let them succeed!
Since recovering his memory, Pei Shuyan's only thought was to protect Yu Jiujiu and wait patiently for her to grow up.
During this period, Pei Shuyan would not tolerate anyone who attempted to do anything that threatened her.
Thinking of the person who wanted to change his destiny, the cold light in Pei Shuyan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Princess, I still have something to report to the Queen Mother, so I'll leave first. It's already late at night, Princess, have a good rest."
"Okay." After hearing this, Yu Jiujiu obediently lay down on the bed, still holding the luminous pearl in her little hand.
Seeing that she really liked this luminous pearl, Pei Shuyan pursed his lips slightly, leaned over Yu Jiujiu to tuck the quilt, and smiled at her: "Princess, have a sweet dream."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it in front of Yu Jiujiu's eyes.
Yu Jiujiu suddenly felt a little sleepy, yawned, and fell asleep quickly.
She slept soundly that night and had sweet dreams.
Pei Shuyan actually did not go to the Queen Mother's Palace last night. Instead, he went to Cining Palace early in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
He reported what happened in Tianyan Sect to Queen Mother Yin.
"Someone wants to change fate with Xiao Jiu'er?" Empress Dowager Yin's graceful and beautiful face showed a hint of solemnity, "Could it be the bad luck star you told the emperor before?"
"It's her." Pei Shuyan did not deny it, "I heard that the Queen Mother is going to Qixia Temple outside Jinling City, but is this so?"
"That's right, is there anything wrong with this?" Queen Mother Yin asked. If it was something that would affect Xiao Jiuer's luck, then she could change to another temple to clean it up, or simply complain of illness.
"Wei Chen only observed through the stars that the evil star was going to come north to the capital. After passing through Tianyan Sect, it suddenly went dormant. But now she has appeared in Jinling City. I am afraid that she will have to wait for the Queen Mother to pass."
Here, Pei Shuyan pursed his lips tightly, feeling a little unhappy.
When this misfortune went to Tianyan Sect, he might have bribed those elders.
Several elders worked together to watch the stars for her and deduced that after the end of this year, the Queen Mother would go south, so she suddenly changed her mind and stopped going north.
Several elders even helped her deliberately hide her horoscope, which made Pei Shuyan unable to deduce her movements for a period of time.
If Pei Shuyan hadn't recovered his memories of his previous life and his stargazing ability had also improved, he might still be kept in the dark until now.
At this time, Queen Mother Yin listened to Pei Shuyan's explanation and was silent for a while.
"In your opinion, do the Ai family still want to go to Qixia Temple?" Queen Mother Yin actually made a decision in her heart, but she still asked this question.
"If you don't go, the evil star will come directly to the capital and endanger Princess Lingfu. If you go, the Queen Mother will deal with it carefully and use the Buddhist energy of Qixia Temple to dampen the vigor of this evil star." Pei Shuyan.
The answer coincides with that of Queen Mother Yin.
