Finally...

"It's no big deal, I'll give it to you, just don't be fierce..."

Jiang Yun Chu sighed helplessly, gently lifted the little creature, and placed it in her palm.

"Everyone is suppressing their spiritual power; they've already reached the critical point, but they cannot advance."

"Because Da Ning lacks sufficient spiritual power, advancing there would only result in being erased."

"But..."

Now Zhongzhou has begun to guard against Da Ning; those who wish to enter Zhongzhou find it increasingly difficult.

"Little Mystic Heaven."

Jiang Yun Chu's voice soft, the Mystic Heaven Snow Ginseng in her palm sprang up and said loudly, "I'll give it to you."

"Jiang Yun Chu, from now on my bathwater will be only for you..."

Jiang Yun Chu's mouth twitched; obviously this should be moving, why does she feel no joy at all?

Bathwater...

Great!

"This one for your son, this one for your daughter."

"This..."

He considered each person's realm, then instructed them step by step.

"This is for your father, but let him return to Zhongzhou."

"His innate spirit is Wood Spirit, and he has cultivated wood-attribute spiritual power; if he goes to Zhongzhou, it will be twice as effective." Little Mystic Heaven's small face showed a serious expression.

"Jiang Yun Chu, whenever I mention the Divine Hall, I always feel something special."

"I seem to dislike that place."

The Mystic Heaven Snow Ginseng sat cross-legged in Jiang Yun Chu's palm, its beady eyes narrowed as if recalling something.

Jiang Yun Chu picked up its leaves and tossed them into the ring.

"If you have nothing to do, take more baths; if you can't remember, don't bother thinking." Her voice was cold, yet her eyes revealed a hint of concern.

Mystic Heaven is familiar with its own divine soul, dislikes the Divine Hall, but only has a feeling, no memory.

What exactly happened before?

Since you can't figure it out, why trouble yourself?

The road is beneath your feet; walk step by step and see.

Jiang Yun Chu glanced at Ning Chengyan; at this moment he is advancing, and no one may interfere, otherwise Heavenly Dao will view it as defying the rules.

She quietly withdrew from the room and had someone guard the door.

"Unless the Prince himself comes out, or I do, anyone who forces entry will be killed without mercy." Her scarlet gauze robe, worn during battle in the Palace, carried a bloody scent.

Some disheveled hair did not affect her appearance, but the bloodstains on her face added a touch of sternness.

"Yes!"

The Wang Fu troops looked at Jiang Yun Chu with admiration.

This is their Princess Consort; seeing the Princess Consort is equivalent to seeing the Prince.

"Master." Zi Su watched the master approach step by step, quickly looked him over, confirmed there were no obvious injuries, then relaxed.

Jiang Yun Chu smiled wearily and said, "Let the children come back, and go to the Jiang Manor to summon the Grand General."

"You go personally to the Bamboo Grove and have Jiang Zeyang come over."

"Yes!" Zi Su knew the master's temperament; there must be something important.

She didn't ask further, quickly arranged people, and went to the Young Master's courtyard.

Then she sent people to the Jiang Manor, and personally went to the bamboo grove in the rear courtyard.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Zeyang, who has been rather cold for years, naturally knows this maid, who is Yun chu's personal attendant.

Otherwise, they wouldn't let her set foot in the Bamboo Grove.

"Our master, please invite Master Jiang to the Rhyme Courtyard." Zi Su remained neither humble nor arrogant; even under such strong pressure, her face still bore a gentle smile.

Jiang Zeyang nodded; the pressure within him was not something he could currently control. In battle, he had been suppressing his breakthrough, but now he could no longer hold it back, and his spiritual power was leaking out.

"I'll follow you."

Others can't move him, but Yun chu can.

Zi Su extended her hand and said, "Master Jiang, please this way."

The first to arrive was actually Jiang Wen Fu; he thought something had happened at the Regent Prince's Manor, that Yun chu was in danger. After hearing the report from the Wang Fu servant, he immediately used his spiritual power and went straight to the Regent Prince's Manor without reporting, sneaking into the Rhyme Courtyard.

"Second Uncle, you're too fast." Jiang Yun Chu laughed through tears.

Seeing her standing there unharmed, Jiang Wen Fu finally relaxed, sighed, and said, "You lass, still have the mind to laugh, and you didn't let the servant explain clearly, giving me a fright."

"Your second uncle is old; he can't withstand all this tossing about."

Usually dressed in gray hemp, he still is, but his face no longer carries that aloof, keep-your-distance aura.

"Please understand, Yun chu has also been a bit emotionally stirred this time, overstepping propriety." She gave a playful smile; in her twenties, she is already a mother of several children in other households.

But in the Regent Prince's Manor, Jiang Wen Fu knows that Yun chu lives more comfortably.

At least, it is far more comfortable than when she was in the Jiang Manor.

No matter the reason, deliberately ignoring her does affect the children.

"Yun chu, do you resent your second uncle?" Looking at the girl no different from his own children, with no one around, he still asked.

Jiang Yun Chu shook her head: "I know; all these years, you've been protecting me."

"Your martial prowess could completely pacify the Northern Rong, yet you stay on the battlefield for over twenty years; as long as the Northern Rong don't invade, you never leave the city walls."

Before she didn't understand, but now she knows the difference between spiritual power and internal strength, and she has comprehended it.

Only the Chiang family army is really struggling; the other two sides are basically just playing with those two countries.

After all, isn't it just because they're covering up people's eyes and ears? Whose eyes and ears are those? Zhongzhou!

She couldn't think of any other answer.

Jiang Wen Fu shook his head, "Too clever a girl, not good."

The woman opposite lightly raised her eyebrows, a hint of a sneer on her face, "No, a woman only needs to be a bit cleverer to live as herself."

"Besides these, you've done something else."

"Even so, I can't clearly remember my childhood affairs, but in one impression, I keep telling myself that you once also doted on me dearly."

"But..."

Her memory is fuzzy, especially having memories of two lives.

But the childhood doting was definitely not modern; at that time she was in an orphanage, basically having no right to be doted on.

"Have you heard of the Hunter Field?" Jiang Wen Fu chuckled and took a sip of tea.

Ying Ying, Yun chu has finally grown up, can be frank with her.

"Hunter Field? Assassin organization." Jiang Yun Chu widened her eyes; she already had quite an understanding of Zhongzhou's power.

An assassin organization, and it's in Zhongzhou.

What does it have to do with her?

Jiang Ze Yang stood at the courtyard gate; when Zi Su was about to say something, he reached out to stop her.

"After you were born, your aunt treated you as her own; later Yun Hui came, and you two are the Jiang mansion's two treasures, the children of our Jiang family."

"But..."

"When you were five, you were hunted down; I slaughtered everyone, and on their bodies there was a mark, the Hunter Field."

"After that, you would inexplicably fall into water, trip while walking, have your medicine swapped; once might be coincidence, but it happens every time."

Jiang Wen Fu let out a sigh; his eyes were no longer as cold as before, carrying a hint of relief.
