After the Spring Festival, Min Xiyao came to Ping'an Town, bought a horse in Ping'an Town, and rode to the capital.

Along the way, she experienced the customs and customs of different places and slowly entered the capital.

When she came to the gate of the city, lined up to enter the gate, and looked at the bustling streets, she was in a great mood.

The streets here are very similar to those in ancient TV dramas. There are candied haws sellers, street snacks, and a variety of shops, all of which show the prosperity here, and there is no sadness after the snow disaster in Qingzhou.

After walking on the road for fourteen days, when they arrived in the capital, it was already the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, and tomorrow was the Lantern Festival. Min Xiyao decided to look at the lanterns in the capital.

After finding an inn to stay, Min Xiyao sat in front of the window of the room on the second floor, looking at the streets with people coming and going downstairs, and her mood improved again.

Situ Yu returned to the Justice League headquarters and asked people to pay attention to the movements of one of its stores, and asked the store owner to inform the store owner that if a little girl named Min Xiyao came over, he must be well entertained and informed.

Li Yu was assassinated several times on the way back to Beijing. If he hadn't possessed the fifth level of Qi training and the spells taught to him by Min Xiyao, he would have died long ago.

For this, he was more grateful to Min Xiyao, and hated the third prince behind the killer even more.

When the third prince received the news that Li Yu had returned to Beijing safely, he was furious and smashed the vases all over the floor.

I don't know why, Li Yu's return this time made him panic, and he always had a bad premonition in his heart. Li Yu's return was likely to be the end of his death.

The third prince came to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion uneasily. The Imperial Preceptor glanced at the third prince who bowed his head in salute, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

Suppressing the panic in his heart, the Third Prince said in a low voice: "National Teacher, Li Yu has returned to Beijing safely."

The Imperial Master showed a creepy smile: "So, the monks I sent out were killed?"

Facing the horrifying smile of the imperial master, the third prince was startled and quickly lowered his head: "It should be so. I don't know which immortal force is helping him behind the scenes."

The third prince gritted his teeth, feeling secretly resentful in his heart, but he did not dare to act arrogantly in front of the Imperial Master.

The national teacher saw the facial expression of the third prince, sneered, and asked coldly, as if coming from hell:
"Have you received the message from the goddess?"

In his heart, the news of Goddess is more valuable than the news of Li Yu's return.

The third prince's heart skipped a beat, and he said hastily: "The rumored goddess has great supernatural powers, and the gods descended from the world, but I always feel..."

There was a hint of coldness in the eyes of the national teacher, and his voice was like crawling out of hell, and he sneered:
"Hehe, a goddess? A small foundation-building monk dares to interrupt my plan and pretend to be a ghost. I will definitely not spare her."

The third prince paused, feeling extremely frightened. He was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head and stopped talking.

Li Yu returned to the capital without a break, and went straight into the palace.

The emperor received the news of Li Yu's return to Beijing in advance and directly received Li Yu without sleeping.

Li Yu reported everything that had happened since the disaster relief to the emperor, as well as the legend about the goddess.

After reading Li Yu's memorial, the emperor closed the memorial and pondered for a moment, then asked Li Yu:

"Who is this goddess? Have you found any news about the goddess?"

It is the best thing for the Great Zhou Dynasty to have the help of a goddess.

If they could find this magical goddess to compete with the national teacher, their royal family's life would be much easier.

Thinking of the recent actions of the national teacher, the emperor tightly held the memorial in his hand, his expression condensed.

Feeling the emperor's anger, Li Yu lowered his head slightly. He already had some doubts about the goddess, but he could not tell the emperor.

Not even if this is his father.

In his heart, unconsciously, Min Xiyao's status was much higher than that of his father.

Seeing that Li Yu lowered his head and said nothing, the emperor sighed deeply, and then said: "You have done a good job. You should not be involved in these, but..."

Before the emperor finished speaking, Li Yu knew what he meant, and said seriously:

"Although I have encountered many dangers when I went out this time, it is my blessing to be able to turn the danger into a breeze and get the opportunity to cultivate immortality."

"What did you say? You got the opportunity to cultivate immortality?" The emperor's eyes lit up, his hands trembling with excitement, he got up quickly, and held Li Yu's hands tightly.

Feeling the strength from the emperor's hand, Li Yu sighed:
"Father, my son did get the opportunity to cultivate immortality when he went out this time, and became a low-level monk. However, what puzzled me was that the results of the examination by the national teacher at that time clearly showed that he did not have the qualifications for cultivating immortals. But the national teacher said that I don't have spiritual roots. My minister obviously has spiritual roots, so is it the national teacher?"

The emperor was furious after hearing Li Yu's words, "What a national teacher, is this trying to break our royal family's way of cultivating immortals?"

Li Yu understood the emperor's anger, so he didn't continue talking. When the emperor calmed down, he said:

"Father, I hope that my father will keep the matter of my becoming a monk a secret."

"Don't worry, only you and I know about this matter."

The emperor turned around, took out a box from under the dragon chair, handed it to Li Yu, and warned:
"This jade pendant was handed down from your ancestors. It is said that it has the function of hiding your cultivation. Wearing the jade pendant, monks below Yuanying will not be able to detect your cultivation."

"Although the royal family is weak now, it has also raised a group of monks as dead warriors. I will send two high-level Qi-training monks to follow you."

"Thank you, Father!"

Li Yu understood that the emperor was both happy and apprehensive when the royal family had monks who could cultivate.

The emperor sent these two men to follow him, one to protect his safety, and the other to spy on him.

Even though he was the emperor's own son, he couldn't avoid the emperor's suspicion.

Seeing that Li Yu readily accepted his arrangement, the emperor was both gratified and sighed that his son had grown up and matured.

He waved his hand and said: "Your mother heard that you will come back tonight, she has not rested, waiting for you in Kunning Palace? Go to Kunning Palace to meet your mother!"

After Li Yu saluted and bid farewell to the emperor, he walked towards Kunning Palace.

The emperor looked at the empty palace, knocked on the table with his right hand, and said to himself: "Since there are immortal cultivators in the imperial family, that national teacher..."

Min Xiyao slept peacefully, and it was already noon.

I ordered a table of special dishes in the inn and ate it.

People in the inn were talking about the lantern festival tonight, and she decided to join in the fun.

As night fell, Min Xiyao came to Lantern Festival Street and looked at the colorful lanterns, feeling very happy.
