Seeing the surprise on Yu Qinghan's pretty face, Zhao Huai smiled and said, "Maybe it's because of my wife's guidance. I had been struggling to get started before, but now it's much easier."
Yu Qinghan nodded when he heard this.
What your husband said makes sense. If someone is there to guide you, the success rate will indeed be greatly improved.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Qinghan's eyes were very serious and he asked Zhao Huai:
"Qi flows through the meridians and gathers in the Dantian, which means that your husband has broken through to the first level of Qi training and officially entered the path of cultivation. You must practice diligently in the future and do not slack off."
"I know, I will practice hard."
Zhao Huai nodded solemnly, then rubbed her serious face and smiled slightly:
"Otherwise, how could I grow old together with my wife?"
Yu Qinghan's face turned red, his eyes became extremely gentle, and he said softly:
"When did my husband's words become so nice?"
"As long as Madam likes to hear it."
Zhao Huai looked at such a beautiful face in front of him and couldn't help but move closer.
"How about now..."
"Boom!"
At the critical moment between you and me, there was an untimely and urgent knock on the door, as if something big had happened.
"I'm convinced, but at this time."
Zhao Huai muttered, his thoughts were interrupted.
Yu Qinghan covered his mouth with a smile and advised: "Okay, let's go."
"Okay, I'll open the door."
Zhao Huai said, then stood up and walked towards the door.
He opened his dead eyes and opened the door bolt impatiently.
When he opened the door, the person he saw surprised him.
"Brother Yan, is something wrong?"
Zhao Huai said in surprise, doctor Yan Jing was standing at his door with a serious look on his face.
"problem occurs."
Yan Jing said solemnly.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Huai frowned and glanced at the sky outside.
It was already slightly darkened, and it looked like the sun was setting on the sky. The time for training went by so fast.
"Do you remember that group of profiteers during the day?"
"Remember, what's wrong, I got a lot of bargains."
Zhao Huai chuckled.
Seeing Zhao Huai's appearance, Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"The profiteer is dead."
Zhao Huai raised his eyebrows and was slightly surprised: "How did you die?"
Although the news came suddenly, he was not surprised, or he was actually mentally prepared.
Yan Jing explained calmly: "My throat was cut with a sword, a cart of property was robbed, my heart was dug out, and it was eaten by wild beasts in the suburbs. People from the Yamen are already investigating the matter.
At first I thought it was you who did it. After all, besides staying at the inn, he stayed here the longest. But I thought about it carefully. With your leisurely and carefree temperament, it shouldn't be possible. You move your hands. "
Zhao Huai realized clearly in his heart that he knew the purpose of Yan Jing's trip. The other party thought that he had killed someone at first, so he wanted to come over to help him. He felt warm in his heart and said with a smile:
"Indeed, you know me. If I want to kill him, the people in the Yamen won't even be able to find the body."
Hearing this, Yan Jing smiled helplessly and continued: "Then you can't take it lightly. I estimate that after the people from the yamen investigate all night, they will come to you for questioning almost tomorrow morning. You have to be prepared."
"Yeah, I know, it's a small problem. I didn't kill the person anyway."
Zhao Huai spread his hands.
Yan Jing nodded, and then thought: "This murderer's behavior is a bit weird. Why is it that only this profiteer's heart has been ripped out, but not the surrounding bodyguards?"
Zhao Huai thought for a moment and came to a conclusion.
"Maybe profiteers have a darker heart."
Yan Jing asked again: "You saw him today, is there anything wrong, or is he a suspicious person? The sooner the murderer shows up, the safer you will be."
"Yes, but I'm not sure enough. I'll tell you when I'm sure."
Although Zhao Huai had a candidate in mind and guessed that it was just the guard during the day, he originally thought that his words had no effect, but now it seems that this is not the case.
But I dare not say that I am 100% sure, not to the level of finalizing the coffin, but I am still 70% sure.
"Any other news?"
Taking advantage of this time, Zhao Huai wanted to ask for more information.
Yan Jing thought for a while and said seriously: "One thing is that the surrounding towns are very unstable recently, and monsters often appear. It is best not to go out in the near future. Jinzhou is still safe."
"understood."
Zhao Huai nodded.
...
inside the house.
A maid quietly appeared in the shadows and handed bags of bundled medicinal materials to Yu Qinghan.
"Your Highness Princess, do you really want to teach Mr. Zhao to practice? He is already so old and it will probably consume a lot of resources."
"Just spend it, even if it means using pills, I will help him practice."
Yu Qinghan took the elixir handed to him and said seriously with a pretty face.
The maid sighed softly: "Oh, I really envy Mr. Zhao for being able to marry such a good wife as the princess. If the generals in the army saw this treatment, they would be stunned."
"Okay, nothing happens, just step back."
The maid said: "Princess, Your Majesty's old injury has recurred. Are you really not going to go back and take a look?"
"Father is sick again?"
Yu Qinghan frowned, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Yes, I have been lying in bed for three days. The imperial doctor said that the hidden wounds left on the battlefield have recurred. The eldest prince and the second prince have both come to the capital to visit."
Yu Qinghan smiled coldly and said: "When did the two of them become so considerate? At the beginning of the founding of the country, they had a lot of quarrels over fiefdom matters."
"I don't know, my servant, that the eldest prince squats beside His Majesty's bed day and night. He is very filial. Even the civil and military officials in the court praise him."
"That's just right. Let him take care of it. It's just a good idea to fulfill his filial piety."
Yu Qinghan said in a very calm tone.
The maid said helplessly: "Yes, I understand, that slave will leave first."
With a "whoosh" sound, the figure jumped up, passed through the skylight, and quickly disappeared into the night.
"Madam, I'm back."
Zhao Huai's voice came from outside the bedroom door.
Yu Qinghan opened the skylight, carried the medicinal materials, walked out of the door, and asked:
"Husband, what's going on?"
Zhao Huai explained: "A friend came to spread the news, saying that someone died at night. It was probably a demon. He told me to be more careful."
In fact, he knew very well that it could not be the devil. He said this just to give an explanation to his wife.
"Madam, this is what you have..."
Zhao Huai suddenly saw a bundle of medicine in Yu Qinghan's hand and asked curiously.
Yu Qinghan explained with a smile: "This is the medicinal material I selected for my husband. It can temper the body and speed up the refining of spiritual energy. It will have a great effect on you now."
"Don't worry, the money won't be much needed, so you don't need to worry. Although my dowry is not much, it is more than enough to buy you medicine."
Zhao Huai was stunned when he heard this, but he was still very moved in his heart and said softly:
"Ma'am, you are so kind."
"Let my husband reward you well."
