The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story

73 Omen

Chu Yi’s appearance eclipsed the golden splendor in the room, making the civil and military officials in the hall the backdrop.

Facing everyone’s gazes, Chu Yi’s eyes were calm and quiet as he walked slowly at his own pace. His sleeves and robes fluttered in the wind with his every move, elegant and noble, as if he was stepping on clouds, making people find it extremely pleasing to the eye.

Everyone only had eyes for him, and everything else around him had disappeared.

Silence filled the hall as everyone held their breaths and focused. Hundreds of gazes stared at Chu Yi in a daze. Some were sizing him up, some were thinking, some were looking forward to it, some were weighing it, some were disapproving, and some were anticipating.

How would the Eldest Prince’s entry into the court affect them?!

This question appeared in the minds of the ministers. Everyone was silent, each with their own thoughts.

Perhaps only the Emperor looked at Chu Yi with heartfelt joy and bright eyes.

His son was finally back!

The moment Chu Yi stepped into the throne room, the sky outside suddenly darkened. The rising sun was blocked by dark clouds that covered the sky.

“Sizzle!”

A huge bolt of lightning split the sky like a huge blade that slashed down from above.

Immediately afterwards, a heavy rainstorm fell from the sky, pouring down like a waterfall.

The storm formed a dense curtain of water, and bean-sized raindrops hit the tiles fiercely. They made noises as they hit the branches and the ground, making the wet air feel unusually oppressive.

In the boudoir, Gu Yanfei was drawing talismans. Her hand was still as steady as ever, and she only put away her brush after drawing the last stroke.

In the next moment, a faint light rapidly reversed from the end of the big red rune back to where it started. The light flashed and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The talisman was completed.

Ever since she absorbed the spiritual energy of the jade pendant, the success rate of Gu Yanfei drawing talismans had far exceeded in the past few days.

Now, not only could she draw talismans with cinnabar, but she could also draw talismans with spiritual energy.

That day, she had drawn a bewitching talisman on the jade pendant she had given to the British Duchess. Coupled with the charm of speech, the effect was not bad.

However, that was also because the phoenix-patterned jade pendant was not an ordinary item to begin with, so it could unleash 70 to 80% of the effect of the bewitching talisman.

Of course, she had not spent so much effort just to scare the British Duchess and Fang Shiming!

Putting down her brush, Gu Yanfei looked up at the rain outside the window in the direction of the palace.

Normally speaking, she wouldn’t be able to see the palace from where she was, but at this moment, her gaze seemed to pass through the limits of space and land on a distant point.

A few drops of rain occasionally splashed into the house, soaking the table and Gu Yanfei’s sleeve.

Gu Yanfei smiled nonchalantly.

Her whole person was like the sunrise and the scattered clouds, exuding a faint brilliance, dazzling, bright, and refreshing.

She stared into the distance in a daze. After a long time, her pitch-black eyes, as vast as the night sky, seemed to be able to see through all the mysteries of this world.

Even if Gu Yanfei did not calculate, she could tell that this was a sign that Heaven’s Will had changed.

His master had said that Heaven’s Will was not eternal.

Even if a person was abandoned by the heavens, he would only have a harder time than others. However, once he broke through a certain shackle, the shackles of the Heavenly Tao would weaken.

Gu Yanfei looked at the rain in a daze as her master’s words sounded in her ears again.

“Yanfei, you’ve been abandoned by the Heavenly Tao. Although the path of cultivation is difficult, on this Great Tao, it’s to defy the heavens and change fate. If you follow it, you’ll become a mortal. If you go against it, you’ll become an immortal.”

The smile on Gu Yanfei’s face deepened, adding a hint of honey.

Chu Yi was someone like her. They were abandoned by the heavens, but they did not abandon themselves.

Gu Yanfei’s heart rippled slightly, as if a person who had been traveling alone for many years had suddenly found a companion.

The storm passed as quickly as it had come. It took only a moment for the rain to subside, leaving only bean-sized raindrops dripping from the eaves.

The sound of the raindrops was like a piece of music played by the heavens.

After the storm cleared, the air was fresh, and even the passage of time seemed to have slowed.

Gu Yanfei was watching the rain, while Juan Bi was watching her. She only felt that her skin was so delicate that she could almost squeeze out the water, and her lips were like peach blossoms, which made people feel pitiful.

Juan Bi was stunned and sighed in her heart. Her lady was really getting more and more beautiful!

At this moment, when she recalled Gu Yanfei’s sallow and skinny appearance when they first met four months ago, Juan Bi felt like she was in a dream, as if they were two lifetimes apart.

A few drops of cold rain blew in and landed on the back of Juan Bi’s hand.

Only then did Juan Bi come back to her senses. She remembered something important and hurriedly reported, “My Lady, the Third Madam just sent two rolls of Songjiang’s fine cloth and a basket of oranges. She said that the oranges were just sent up by the manor for you to try.”

Gu Yanfei knew that Madam Yan was doing this for Gu Yunzhen and smiled. “Keep the two rolls of cloth first, and distribute the basket of oranges for everyone to try.”

Juan Bi beamed in response.

After settling those things, they both left.

The rain had stopped, making the air thick with condensation and the ground outside wet. When the wind blew, the raindrops on the leaves fell with it, as if another rainfall was happening.

Juan Bi carefully held up an oil-paper umbrella for Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei walked forward unhurriedly, her posture elegant and valiant. Along the way, her snow-green dress was not stained with mud at all.

Gu Yanfei was going to the Benevolent Harmony Hall now.

Because Gu Yanfei had “obediently” handed over the jade pendant, Madam Gu was quite satisfied and felt that Gu Yanfei was finally obedient. In addition, she had been in a good mood recently and treated Gu Yanfei better.

The day before yesterday, Madam Gu had sent Gu Yanfei a bolt of soft blue veil.

Yesterday, Madam Gu had rewarded Gu Yanfei with a plate of wine-brewed steamed duck.

This morning, she got someone to call her over for breakfast again.

...

This was something that had never happened in two lifetimes.

Of course she would go!

Gu Yanfei led Juan Bi leisurely into the courtyard of the Benevolent Harmony Hall.

A few scattered leaves were blown down from the treetops by the cold wind and fluttered towards Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei flicked her sleeve and raised her hand, bumping into a familiar face in front of her.

When their gazes met, Mother Su’s pupils constricted. She wanted to hide behind the pillar guiltily, but she had only taken half a step back when she stopped. Madam Gu’s words when she comforted Gu Yunrong in private appeared in her mind.

“Rong’er, you don’t have to worry too much about your Second Sister.”

“Mother Su is in the wrong, but 14 years ago, she was also the one who saved your Second Sister from the chaos and even narrowly escaped death. Today, your Second Sister is standing here safe and sound because of her.”

Mother Su held her head high and stroked her sleeve, staring at Gu Yanfei fearlessly.

Yes, Madam was right.

She was Gu Yanfei’s savior. Gu Yanfei should be grateful to her!

...

She didn’t have to panic at all! Mother Su said to herself over and over again.
