Lu sighed deeply, wiped away her tears, and said, “It’s been so many years, I’ve gotten used to looking this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as there’s nothing wrong with my body, I’m fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m just afraid that the poison that woman gave me was not only meant to disfigure me but also to take my life.”If one’s body is in a state of hormonal imbalance over a long period, indeed, they wouldn’t live as long as normal people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hermaphrodites don’t live long, do they?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the poison that woman gave Madam Lu was certainly more complex than ordinary hormones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was indeed talented, but what a pity she didn’t use it in the right place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take this medicine for a few days, then come back to see me.”Gu Youyou handed the prescription to Madam Lu and then left Jisheng Hall to take the carriage back to the Imperial Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the noble ladies entering the palace, the rules had been tightened these past few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cui family, fearing that Cui Yingying would cause trouble while with Princess Jiujiu, had taken her back home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t come to lessons for several days now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Jin Liuying found it boring to study alone, but fortunately, Gu Youyou had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the class for the Four Books for Women began, she happily took Gu Youyou’s hand and whispered to her, “All the noble daughters have entered the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These days, all the Madams are focused on the noble daughters in Chuxiu Palace, so no one is paying attention to my Liuying Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master, don’t you like Fire Lotus?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should Jiujiu take you there?”Today offered the chance to see the Fire Lotus in Flame Pool, so Gu Youyou was overjoyed for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was about to agree when she suddenly felt a bit worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What would happen if she were caught?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Princess could claim her young age as ignorance, but what about her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, what are you thinking about?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve sent the palace maids away, let’s hurry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no one there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll just sneak in and sneak out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I went there secretly a few days ago,” Princess Jiujiu urged, seeing that Gu Youyou hadn’t replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou tapped her forehead and laughed, “Alright, let’s go.”No need to be scared, staying in ancient times had made her increasingly timid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If anything happened, she’d just say she didn’t know that the Fire Lotus was off-limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had done a favor for the Empress Dowager, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just taking a quick look, she couldn’t believe the always filial Emperor would refuse to save her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Jiujiu led Gu Youyou through the vast Imperial Palace, past several halls and gardens, before they finally saw a pool of fiery red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From afar, the legendary Flame Pool was reflecting red against half the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surroundings were very quiet, with no people around, not even the sound of birds could be heard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the pool of fiery red, Princess Jiujiu exclaimed with joy, “There it is!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master, let’s hurry.”Only when they reached the edge of the Flame Pool did Gu Youyou get a clear view of the Fire Lotus in its true form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Rujing once brought Gu Youyou a Fire Lotus, but by the time it reached her hands, it had withered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from a dark red clump, its original appearance was indiscernible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leaves of the Fire Lotus here were large, like jade lotus leaves, forming big round pads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leaves were green, but the stems were red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blossoms were red as fire and slightly smaller than the usual lotus flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pond, where they were planted, was as red as blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It constantly bubbled with bubbles of various sizes as if the blood was boiling, which was oddly enchanting and yet repulsive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did Jin Zijin ever get poisoned by this Fire Lotus?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s so beautiful!” Princess Jiujiu leaned over the edge of the pond and marveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou: “…” She couldn’t help but disagree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps, if picked and examined separately, the Fire Lotus might be beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in a pool of blood water, it didn’t seem beautiful whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>",705,"2026-06-06T06:54:59.028Z",1,"novelbin.me","54cf9f7889ddd89f147a969fedca79180b8a2ca75906ea2c3b504cfe1f9fe408","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-737","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-735",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
