Quick Wear: Random Cheats

Chapter 195 Soul Scattered, Heaven-Mending Stone (6)

After pondering for a long time, Ding Shui had an idea. Before long, a piece of spiritual jade appeared next to the Imperial Seal of the State that she had transformed into. It was exactly the same as the previous spiritual jade.

Regardless of size, appearance, or characters, they are all the same.

It is even because it is condensed from the energy of the five elements.

It also has the effects of nourishing the body and prolonging life.

"I told you before that I was deceived by a group of fake immortals. Those fake immortals told me that Shenying, the attendant of Nuwa Palace, was going to descend to the mortal world to undergo tribulation. If I wanted to experience the beauty of the mortal world, I could take this opportunity to avoid reincarnation and go through the trials with Shenying. I wouldn't have to reincarnate and there would be no danger."

Since I had never been to the mortal world before, and what they said sounded wonderful, I was very tempted and agreed.

"What exactly happened afterward, and what words were written on my body, were all arranged by that bald-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest. Even the subsequent placement inside Lady Wang's womb and into the mouth of the unborn Jia Baoyu was arranged by them. According to them, Jia Baoyu should be the reincarnation of the Divine Stone Attendant after his tribulation."

"But now I'm a little unsure, because I even suspect that this is a setup they set up for me."

"Uh... does it matter?"

Emperor Yonghe was somewhat bewildered. No matter how he listened, these words seemed completely nonsensical. Although he was somewhat surprised that Jia Baoyu, who loved to eat the rouge on women's lips, might have been a deity in his previous life, these things didn't seem to have anything to do with the issues he was worried about.

"No rush. Shenying Attendant is said to be a gardener on the outskirts of Nuwa Palace. Of course, just like a seventh-rank official at the Prime Minister's gate, even if he is just a gardener on the outskirts of Nuwa Palace, he is still an existence that most pseudo-immortals cannot reach."

Doing something to please them isn't outrageous.

"My idea is to use his identity to make some moves. For example, he may have come down to earth with a mission, or the spiritual jade in his hand may actually be just a piece of jade that has been tainted by the essence of the five-colored stone. Its purpose is to use that wisp of the essence of the five-colored stone to find the whereabouts of the Imperial Seal of the State."

The essence was integrated into the Imperial Seal of the State, making up for its defects, imbuing it with spiritual power, and turning it into a national treasure.

This was his original mission.

However, he was ambushed when he descended to the mortal realm.

They completely forgot their mission.

Originally, with this delay, the Imperial Seal might have continued to be lost, because it would be many years before it returned to the mortal realm.

Unexpectedly, the Imperial Seal had already fallen into His Majesty's hands many years ago. However, someone had covered the seal with a layer of fine jade, disguising it as a different kind of seal, which is why His Majesty had never noticed it.

Until today, when I am alone.

An accident caused the jade seal to fall to the ground, shattering the exquisite jade covering it and revealing the true imperial jade seal inside.

His Majesty cut his finger when he picked it up, and dripped his own dragon blood onto the Imperial Seal, activating it.

The magical jade sensed the aura of the Imperial Seal of the State was very close, which is why it suddenly erupted. It flew to the Imperial Seal of the State from the De'an Palace, which was far away from the Zichen Palace. After merging with the Imperial Seal of the State, it generated a five-colored ray of light that rejuvenated His Majesty's body.

And inform His Majesty of this information.

Now, the five-colored stone essence within the Spirit Jade has been completely integrated into the Imperial Seal of the State, transforming the Imperial Seal of the State into a national treasure with divine power.

For example, suppressing the fate of the nation, distinguishing between loyalty and treachery...

"How about it? Wasn't the story I made up pretty good?"

After all, Ding Shui also needed to completely transform himself into the Imperial Seal of the State in order to steal the fortune of the real Imperial Seal of the State and thus help the original body's true spirit to recover better.

So she put a lot of effort into making up this story.

Emperor Yonghe pondered for a long time, and then said:

"There's generally no problem, but I think there's one thing that can be changed. Let's not say that Jia Baoyu was plotted against, but just say that he was greedy for worldly pleasures and wanted to descend to the mortal world a few more times, so he deliberately sealed his memories to avoid completing this mission."

This is how I can descend to the mortal realm repeatedly..."

"At that time, the Emperor will surely think that it was all because Jia Baoyu was greedy for pleasure and deliberately slack off that he missed the opportunity to obtain the Imperial Seal of the State."

The Jia family is so ungrateful; they deserve some punishment.

What do you think? There probably aren't any feelings left!

These old nobles, the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, had always relied on his father, the Emperor, causing him a lot of trouble. So Emperor Yonghe naturally didn't mind taking this opportunity to sow discord between his father and the Four Kings and Eight Dukes. Even if his father certainly wouldn't cut off his own arm and directly take action against the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, he would at least feel some estrangement and resentment towards the Jia family.

Whether it's useful or not, it's just something that comes to mind.

The last sentence is a subtle way of probing whether there is any affection between Ding Shui and the Jia family, and how deep that affection is.

Politicians are always cunning.

"It doesn't matter if the Jia family is all dead, but Lin Daiyu cannot die right now. Those who plot against me are using Lin Daiyu as a pivot to cast curses on me, and they are the most vicious kind, a curse that would lead to mutual destruction."

I'm not entirely clear on the specifics or reasons.

Although the suppression of fate can greatly block the karmic ties of blood and tears and the turbulent worldly energy, we must not let Lin Daiyu die for the time being, just in case.

I'll have to figure out the specifics before I say anything.

All I remember is that the bald-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest said that Lin Daiyu was the Crimson Pearl Fairy from the Western Spirit River, who descended to earth to repay the debt of tears owed to Shenying Attendant for watering her with sweet dew. But somehow, even though she was repaying the debt to Shenying Attendant, she somehow ended up being connected to me.

It turned into a bloody and tearful cause and effect.

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand these things. The important thing is to ensure Lin Daiyu's safety. The fate of the rest of the Jia family is none of my concern; it doesn't matter to me."

Ding Shui's statement was basically true, but even if many accidents occurred, it was the original spirit that died.

She had no blood ties or karmic connections with Lin Daiyu.

Just as Ding Shui had finished discussing things with Emperor Yonghe, Xia Zhong reported from outside the palace that the Empress had arrived.

The Virtuous Consort, along with Grandmother Jia and Jia Baoyu, were also present.

"Let them all come in!"

After speaking, Emperor Yonghe was quite satisfied and moved all the other jade seals aside, leaving only the Imperial Seal of the State, which still emitted a faint five-colored glow, and the Spiritual Jade, which had stopped shining and was newly made by Ding Shui, in the most open space in the center of the table.

Meanwhile, the empress and her entourage, who had been granted an audience, quickly entered the hall. After bowing, the empress, however, did not bother to offer any explanation.

He said directly, "Your Majesty, Consort Xiande and her grandmother have something to say to you. Please speak."

Their dedication and kindness over the years.

That was only enough for the Empress to help get to this point.

"Speak! I'm listening!" To be honest, Emperor Yonghe was indeed quite curious about what kind of story they could come up with. He had just collaborated with the spirit of the stone that had been used to mend the sky to create a story, and he wondered what kind of story Old Lady Jia, her granddaughter, and her grandson would come up with.
Immediately afterwards, Grandmother Jia patted the back of her granddaughter, Consort Xiande, who was about to step forward to explain.

He gestured for her to stay still.

At the same time, he took a step forward and began to explain.

It's better for her to bring it up herself. If it weren't for the fact that it's difficult to see the Empress without Consort Xiande, and the Empress insists on bringing Consort Xiande along, she doesn't even want her granddaughter to come with them to meet the Emperor, fearing that her granddaughter will be disliked by His Majesty because of it.

It's time for you to explain.

It was the best solution she could think of.

As for how to explain it, of course they would do it according to what they had agreed beforehand, saying that they originally wanted to follow the procedure, but unexpectedly... While Grandmother Jia kept explaining with her head down, she had already looked up at the Empress of Emperor Yonghe, and at this moment she was completely stunned.

They were husband and wife, after all, and they saw each other all the time. Most importantly, their last meeting was only half a day ago, so the Empress knew very well what Emperor Yonghe was like before. When she looked up at him now, she was even a little dazed, as if she had traveled back in time to more than ten years ago, when her husband had not yet ascended the throne, but was only Prince Yong, and had not participated in the struggle for the throne.

The couple lived in harmony and had few worries.

"you……"

Meanwhile, Jia Yuanchun, who was secretly glancing up to see if Emperor Yonghe would be angry with her grandmother, was also bewildered. Although her relationship with Emperor Yonghe was not as close as that of the Empress, and she didn't see him every day, she had seen the Emperor three to five days ago and knew very well what he looked like then.

Therefore, he naturally gasped in surprise at that moment.

It was a struggle to control myself.

There was no sound of surprise or any question that came to mind.

Seeing their surprised expressions, Emperor Yonghe was actually quite pleased with himself. Coupled with his good mood, he quickly interrupted Grandmother Jia, saying:
"Alright, no need for formalities, get up."

I think I understand what you're saying. In any case, I still want to thank your grandson, the Divine Attendant who descended to earth, for bringing the missing wisp of the five-colored stone essence that was missing from the Imperial Seal.

It not only helped me regain my youth.

He even helped me find the Imperial Seal of the State and filled in the missing parts of the Imperial Seal of the State, so that the Imperial Seal of the State could be transformed into a true national treasure, which is quite miraculous.

Get up. Also, the Spirit Jade is right here.

Take it back with you.

The five-colored stone essence inside has already merged with my Imperial Seal. However, even so, because this spiritual jade was once tainted by the five-colored stone essence, it still has some health-preserving and longevity-promoting effects. The old lady can keep it herself and doesn't need to give it to your grandson anymore.

It's unnecessary and there's no need for it!

This attendant Shenying was greedy for worldly riches and honors.

His original mission was to retrieve the Imperial Seal of the State using the magical jade and present it to the founding emperor upon his ascension to the throne. However, he coveted worldly wealth and refused to comply, thus delaying the task for three generations, enjoying three generations of wealth through reincarnation. This time, if I hadn't unexpectedly found the true Imperial Seal of the State and performed the blood oath ceremony, it wouldn't have been possible.

The Spirit Jade has been reincarnated countless times with this pleasure-seeking Divine Attendant. Originally, when I first learned of this matter through the Spirit Jade and the Imperial Seal...

They were so angry they wanted to sacrifice themselves to heaven and sue him.

However, considering the distinguished service of your Jia family in the previous two generations, we will not pursue this matter further.

When people receive a recipe from someone else, they often add their own ideas and take initiative when cooking. This is even more true when telling a story.

Without a doubt, Emperor Yonghe at this time was based on the story fabricated by Ding Shui, with some changes and his own interpretations, making it seem more reasonable.

It is said that the Imperial Seal of the State should have been delivered when the founding emperor ascended the throne, but the immortal attendant Shenying who was in charge of this task was too unreliable, which is why it was delayed until now. He obtained the Imperial Seal of the State through his own destiny.

This statement not only indicates that the founding emperor was ordained by Heaven, but also indirectly suggests that one's own destiny is slightly more powerful than that of the founding emperor.

After all, the founding emperor was tricked by a worthless deity.

He wasn't scammed; even a god couldn't scam him.

This shows how strong his destiny is!
As Emperor Yonghe spoke, Grandmother Jia looked up at him, and the process followed a similar pattern. First, she gasped, then listened intently, and more importantly, tried to understand what Emperor Yonghe was saying. Finally, she looked at Emperor Yonghe and the still-glowing jade seal on his table with astonishment, while giving a bewildered glance to Jia Baoyu.

The Imperial Seal of the State has been found!!!
Her grandson is an angel descended from heaven!

Or rather, a god who botched things!

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations! The Imperial Seal of the State, lost for hundreds of years, has reappeared, and Your Majesty has even regained your youth as a result. It truly lives up to the two inscriptions on the Imperial Seal: 'By the mandate of Heaven, may your reign be long and prosperous!'"

Although her mind was still a little foggy, the Empress quickly curtsied slightly and offered her congratulations.

They were a couple whose fates were intertwined, sharing both prosperity and adversity.

At least for now.

At the same time, the Empress was fully aware of the predicament Emperor Yonghe was facing, so her congratulations were sincere.

I am genuinely happy for it.

After speaking, the Empress stepped forward and curiously examined the jade seal, which emitted a multicolored glow, but ultimately did not dare to take it. With ordinary jade seals or private seals, she might not cause any trouble by taking a look, but the Imperial Seal of the State was something the Empress dared not compare herself to.

Therefore, one must naturally exercise restraint and not dare to overstep boundaries.

It was only then that Grandmother Jia and the others belatedly realized what was happening and hurriedly followed suit, offering their congratulations as well.

At the same time, Grandmother Jia also apologized on behalf of her grandson.

Although she wasn't sure at the moment whether her grandson was Shenying Attendant reincarnated, since His Majesty had said so, she had to admit it. She also had to acknowledge and apologize for the mistakes Shenying Attendant had made, and at least her attitude had to be more respectful.

"Alright, I'm not a demanding person."

Besides, Shenying Attendant has sealed his memories, and your grandson is unaware of this, so naturally he won't hold a grudge against him for it.

Take this magical jade back with you!

Since he had already obtained the truly valuable item, Emperor Yonghe naturally didn't want to keep the Spirit Jade, as if he were someone who had seized it by trickery or force. Even if the Spirit Jade had been delivered to his door, there was no need to keep it.

Xia Zhong and the others were still waiting outside the hall.

Therefore, no one obeyed Emperor Yonghe's order to deliver the jade pendant to Grandmother Jia, and Grandmother Jia, of course, dared not directly step forward to take the jade pendant at this time:
"Your Majesty, this jade flew into your hands on its own. It must be destined for Your Majesty, but not for us."

We are not blessed enough; if we insist on things, we will only suffer.

Therefore, I hope Your Majesty will keep it…

"Well, then let's give it to Lin Daiyu. I heard she was the reincarnation of the Crimson Pearl Fairy, and her life was dedicated to repaying her debt of tears. She must have a tragic fate. Let her carry this magical jade with her close to her body to help her maintain her health. It should allow her to live a few more years and avoid an early death."

If he were to die young, I would be letting Lin Ruhai down.

Alright, let's go back now.

"I will have someone deliver this jade to the Rongguo Mansion later!"

Just then, Emperor Yonghe remembered Ding Shui's words that Lin Daiyu should not die, and he also knew that Lin Daiyu was in poor health. In addition, Ding Shui had clearly stated that the magical jade she had condensed did indeed have the effect of regulating the body and prolonging life. Therefore, he made a last-minute decision to bestow it upon Lin Daiyu.

Anyway, the Sky-Mending Elf has the ability to condense one piece, so he should be able to condense two or three pieces as well, and there won't be a shortage in the future.

Because Emperor Yonghe did not bestow the gift upon himself, nor even upon the Jia family, but upon Lin Daiyu, it was not appropriate for Grandmother Jia to refuse on her behalf. Therefore, she could only kowtow to express her gratitude on behalf of her granddaughter, and then take her leave.
