Chapter 216 The Princess's Embroidered Robe Has Come to Life!!!
The emperor kept the fact that the eldest princess was a monster whose belly had been pregnant since birth a secret, and not many people in the palace knew about it. The emperor was terrified of her protruding belly and naturally neglected the eldest princess.
Two rat demons hid inside the bodies of the eldest and second princesses, absorbing the nutrients they consumed. For a period of time, the second princess became extremely thin. Later, for some unknown reason, she began to crave food, especially all kinds of meat. From that time on, the second princess sensed something was wrong. Around that time, a magic trick was cast over her.
The rat demons' possessed bodies were completely unusable because they were inside the bodies of the eldest and second princesses. They didn't want to be trapped in the bodies of the eldest and second princesses forever, so they began to plan to possess them again.
The targets of the possession were naturally the eldest and second princesses, who shared the same mother as their current bodies. However, this was easier said than done.
The capital city is full of talented people, and monks and Taoist priests often appear there. It's not easy to do it without anyone noticing.
On her first attempt at possession, the eldest princess sensed the rat demon inside her body. Instead of immediately seeking out monks and Taoist priests to remove the rat demon, she made a deal with it.
She can voluntarily give up her own body, provided that the rat demon can help her find another body.
Obesity and a protruding belly tormented the eldest princess, and she had no attachment to her body whatsoever.
For some unknown reason, perhaps the rat demon took pity on her, and agreed to the deal. However, for the eldest princess's soul to be transferred to another body, a condition needed to be met. Since the eldest princess was just an ordinary person, for her soul to possess someone else's body, that person had to willingly kiss her. Alternatively, if that method didn't work, forcibly possessing the body of a weak, dying person was also an option!
This is why the eldest princess kept asking Zhengze for a kiss, and after Zhengze expressed his unwillingness, she raised her hand and stabbed him.
The eldest princess coveted Zhengze's abilities, but she never expected that after all her scheming, Yan Ning would see through all her plans and thwart them with force.
"I say all this simply to thank Lord Lan." The princess took the tea handed to her by the maid and took a small sip. "That rat demon was very powerful. None of the people around me could subdue him. Over the years, I could only endure the pain he caused me inside my body. Now that Lord Lan has subdued the rat demon, I can finally rest easy."
After expressing their gratitude, Yan Ning and Yu Liu got up and left, while Zheng Ze was kept behind by the Second Princess.
Yu Liu kept turning back as she walked: "A Ning, do you think the Second Princess might also have taken a liking to Zheng Ze? Since Zheng Ze's requirement wasn't met, does that mean he might be in danger with the Second Princess?"
Yu Liu was really uneasy. If something really happened to Zheng Ze, the wish would not be fulfilled, and all the efforts that Aning had made would be in vain. This was not what Yu Liu wanted to see.
Yan Ning reassured her by pulling on the sleeve of the embroidered dress: "Don't worry, with the Second Princess's abilities, she can't do anything to Zhengze."
...even if he was injured.
After all, he was—a demon who almost destroyed the Heavenly Court.
There must be something wrong with the baby if he is able to meet his reincarnation.
No one knows what the second princess said to Zhengze, and Zhengze, as Yan Ning said, was indeed unharmed. The two rat demons and the eldest princess, who had been sealed by Yan Ning, were also taken over by Zhengze, but Yu Liu didn't know exactly how he dealt with them.
In the days that followed, Yu Liu became increasingly anxious. Since the two rat demons had been eliminated, no one had been harmed, and there had been no trace of monsters in the capital. However, the wish to eliminate the great demon had not yet been fulfilled.
Yu Liu was completely baffled by the situation. Desperate to return to human form, she became fixated on finding the hidden demon, but had absolutely no clue whatsoever.
As for the regular expression, there are still no results.
The fulfillment of the wish was thus forcibly halted.
Yan Ning could naturally sense Yu Liu's anxiety, but he was helpless. Feeling sorry for his little Liu'er, he could only take Yu Liu for walks around the capital every day, sometimes to bustling streets, sometimes to flower fields in the suburbs, which greatly soothed Yu Liu's mood.
However, this is only a temporary solution and not a cure.
Yan Ning understood.
Her gaze greedily fell on the embroidered woman, who was skipping and jumping under a peach tree. Unlike the peach trees in Peach Blossom Manor, this peach tree's blossoms faded quickly, and it had already borne reddish fruit. Yu Liu stood under the tree, drooling over the peaches above her head. Although she knew that she couldn't eat them in their current state, she still couldn't resist the urge to pick them.
To those approaching from afar, this scene, aside from the unusual appearance of the main character, truly evoked a sense of tranquility and peace.
"Your name is Lan Ming, right?"
The words were completely devoid of emotion, spoken by the person in front of him. The other person looked at him with indifference, his face expressionless.
Yan Ning slowly exhaled; what was bound to happen had finally happened.
Time is up.
"Senior...you can call me Tai Ming."
Yan Ning looked at Zhengze, who had changed completely, with the same gaze, and slowly said.
"Tai Ming? He must be a newcomer..." Zheng Ze sighed, "His skills are good, but his divine power is not yet fully developed. The people of Heaven actually managed to send you down to the mortal realm. I wonder... how Heaven has become now..." Is she... alright?
Yan Ning simply smiled at the derogatory remarks made by Zhengze, not caring at all. She couldn't very well get angry and retort, saying that her strength at her peak was even greater than his.
Or... let's give the seniors some face.
After making a blank sigh, Zhengze turned his gaze to Yuliu and stared at her for a while. Just as Yan Ning was about to become wary, he said indifferently, "You two are very destined for each other."
For some reason, Yan Ning felt a slight headache. Was this person... having trouble speaking, forcing a conversation?
The people in Heaven have mentioned our destiny so many times, we're sick of it! We even did something foolish because of it back then, and I really don't want to hear it again!
"senior……"
Just as Yan Ning was about to say something, Yu Liu, who was hopping around picking peaches, noticed Zheng Ze, who had appeared out of nowhere, and skipped over.
"Aning!"
Yu Liu was somewhat happy because she had a premonition that Zhengze's arrival would end her days as an embroiderer, and that she would soon be able to take human form!
