My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 70 Zhongren Comes to Pay Respects

Gu Residence!

Before entering the door, they saw the familiar old man in front of the stone lion at the door, closing his eyes and practicing fist techniques, alternating between left and right punches.

When Gu Lan and the others arrived, he was still unaware.

"Wow, it's been half a month, and Old Yang is still practicing martial arts?" Liu Yexi, with an expression of surprise, took small steps and approached to take a look.

Mu Yuyan also paused, looking at Gu Lan with questioning eyes.

Gu Lan explained with a smile, "Oh, a few days ago, I found a body-strengthening technique for him to practice casually..."

"A technique?" Mu Yuyan showed a puzzled expression, "Where did you get it? Did it cost a lot of money?"

"Just at the early market near Nan'an Gate in the capital, bought while getting buns... it cost just a few coins." Gu Lan laughed.

At this moment, Old Yang, who was practicing, was poked by Liu Yexi. He woke up, turned around, and smiled, bowing to Mu Yuyan, "Madam is back. The young master has been waiting at Dongzhi Gate every morning. Haha, you don't know how anxious he has been..."

Hearing this, Mu Yuyan glanced at Gu Lan with a smile that was not a smile, her beautiful eyes full of affection. Gu Lan was exposed, and his face turned red.

Liu Yexi chimed in, "Hey, Old Yang! What's the name of the technique the young master gave you? Let me take a look."

She had practiced martial arts since childhood, and the set of punches Old Yang had just performed seemed interesting to her.

"Oh, it's Yexi." Old Yang took out two jade slips from his pocket and smiled awkwardly, "This Eight Pieces of Brocade is mine. Look, the young master also prepared one for you."

"I have one too?" Liu Yexi was a little surprised but smiled. Although she looked down on things from street stalls, she was quite happy that the young master remembered her!

However, when Liu Yexi took a glance at the jade slip, her expression suddenly froze. This... this was an Immortal Stage technique?!

She didn't understand the Eight Pieces of Brocade too well, but her own Cloud-Stepping Technique was undoubtedly a genuine Immortal Stage technique! Moreover, it was a body movement technique known for its agility.

Even in the Great Jing's Jixia Martial Arts Academy, there was only a partial record, treated as one of the three treasures of the martial arts academy!

Liu Yexi rubbed her eyes vigorously. Her gaze was hot, afraid that she might be mistaken!

Mu Yuyan noticed her strangeness and asked, "Yexi, what's wrong? Are your eyes uncomfortable?"

"Um... yes."

Liu Yexi pursed her lips, trying hard to swallow her saliva, and looked at Gu Lan and Old Yang.

However, both of them had expressions as if these jade slips were just common goods, calm as water!

Liu Yexi's head buzzed for a moment. She handed the jade slips to the female Emperor, "Her Ma... madam, it's better if you take a look."

Mu Yuyan took them and glanced inside the jade slips. In an instant, her beautiful eyes trembled. Her delicate body stiffened, and she slowly turned to Gu Lan, full of suspicion, "Master Gu, is this really... bought from a street stall?"

"Yes." Gu Lan had long prepared his words and spoke casually, "A person in black set up a stall, sold it to me, and then closed the stall and left." Hearing this, Mu Yuyan and Liu Yexi exchanged glances!

Their breathing became a bit rapid! Immortal Stage techniques sold for a few coins... This was simply giving them away!

Such behavior couldn't be described as extravagant; it was simply outrageous!

Only a peerless expert could do something like this... unfettered by worldly concerns, giving great opportunities to anyone they liked!

Mu Yuyan calmed her emotions.

At this moment, Old Yang had already opened the main door and carried the luggage brought by the madam into the Residence. Lin Tan'er, dressed in a cotton skirt, came out with a smile.

"Madam is finally back. The meal is almost ready, all made according to the young master's instructions, your favorite dishes."

"Uncle Yang is right. In fact, it was even more spectacular than in Langzhou. The morning sun that day was particularly beautiful, and there were golden clouds all over the sky!"

Lin Tan'er also came over, her eyes shining with curiosity.

Gu Lan: "..."

It seems that these two enjoyed it that day.

You guys probably don't know.

You're already gossiping about your young master!

Gu Lan rubbed his neck, recalling:

"In fact, there was nothing to see. At that time, I went to buy breakfast and heard them say something about an explosion, merits, and so on. Later, I heard that even the Imperial Guards went there."

"Is that so?"

"Is that so?"

Mu Yuyan smiled and asked, "On the way here, I heard people say that the person involved in this matter is the immortal we encountered in Langzhou."

The Consecrator of Tianji Pavilion had already become world-famous.

With this question, she also doubted whether the one selling these transcendent celestial techniques to Gu Lan might be that Consecrator?

After all.

In the current capital, the one who could be so generous and carefree was probably him!

As they discussed this.

Gu Lan's steps halted!

Damn, is the market information in the capital so well-informed? Have the old folks already thought of the connection between the phenomenon in Langzhou and the phenomenon in the capital so quickly?

Fortunately.

When he destroyed those four sword auras back then, he didn't leave too many traces...

Gu Lan turned his head, smiled at the madam, and found her looking at him with a smile, making him inexplicably uneasy.

"Really? So the immortal also came... What a coincidence, haha."

"Hmm... Did the lord meet him that day?"

"Of course not!"

"Oh."

Mu Yuyan lightly nodded, not pressing further.

It was normal not to have seen him. Someone like the Consecrator of Tianji Pavilion was elusive. Even if he stood in front of you, you might not recognize him...

However!

At this moment, a slightly familiar and immature voice entered her ears from outside the door.

"Brother Gu, is dinner ready?"

"I heard that Sister Madam is back. Zhongren, a humble Daoist, has come to pay respects!"
