Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 864 - 853: The Cowardly Emperor

Ye Qiu is the son of the Empress Dowager Kong Yanlin, but Ye Ying is not. Perhaps neither of them has the talent for cultivation, or perhaps they are the two who have the least status in the palace, so their relationship is particularly good.

"Elder brother, are you going to marry the Imperial Sister-in-law?" Little Ye Ying looked at him with big eyes.

"Yes, the State Preceptor says I should marry." Ye Qiu looked at the sky and then affectionately ruffled her hair.

"Lord National Master..." The girl bit her lip, seeming quite discontent, quickly glanced around, and then whispered, "Elder brother, I think Lord National Master is not a good person."

"Why do you say that?"

"Clearly, elder brother, you are the Emperor, but the ministers’ memorials are all sent to the National Master Mansion. That day I saw the child from the National Master Mansion send memorials for you to seal with the Jade Seal, and his nostrils were directed at the sky."

"From now on, don’t appear in front of people from the National Master Mansion, understand?" Ye Qiu’s heart tightened, "Especially the State Preceptor, do not let him see you."

"I know, I’m a bit afraid of him too." Ye Ying nodded.

And how could Ye Qiu not be afraid? His sister’s constitution is special, and he now doesn’t have the ability to protect her. If the State Preceptor finds out, will his sister suffer the same catastrophe as she did in their previous life?

"Let me see your hand."

Ye Ying stretched out her hand, curiously asking, "Brother, you know how to diagnose?"

"Yes, I’ve been reading some books lately, just trying." Actually, he chose this Skill of Soul Power Technique for this life, wanting to know what his sister’s constitution is.

Upon examination, his brows furrowed more and more: "Do your hands and feet often feel cold?"

"Brother, how did you know?"

"Why didn’t you say anything?"

"The palace maids said girls are all like this. Brother, is there something wrong with my body?"

Ye Qiu took a deep breath. It’s not that there’s anything wrong with her body, it’s just that the palace attendants haven’t cared for her well over the years, resulting in a severe cold in her body. As for her special constitution, it’s because she has a very peculiar pearl in her body.

"Have you noticed anything strange within your body over the years?" Ye Qiu asked.

Ye Ying frowned in thought: "Strange places? No."

"Then have you ever accidentally ingested something peculiar, like a pearl?"

"Elder brother, now that you mention it, I do recall. Last year when I was eating fish, I accidentally swallowed a white pearl. At the time, I wondered why the Imperial Chefs hadn’t cleaned the fish properly. Elder brother, you even noticed this? Could it be a problem? Is the pearl still in my body?" Ye Ying asked nervously.

"It’s nothing serious." Ye Qiu softly comforted her, thinking the problem with his sister’s special constitution likely stems from this pearl. Otherwise, it would explain why, during checks when she was younger, her ability to cultivate wasn’t discovered, only later on was found. It turns out it’s all due to that pearl.

Ye Qiu is unaware of the cultivator’s world in this context, even less so are there any Exotic Treasures. Not to mention knowing that pearl. But undeniably, it is peculiar. Yet could it only be used to benefit others but not oneself?

"Ying’er, now elder brother will teach you a cultivation method. Practice it secretly and don’t let others know, okay?"

"But previously, the State Preceptor said I don’t have the talent for cultivation."

"The State Preceptor said you don’t have the talent for cultivation because you cannot cultivate his technique. Perhaps other techniques might work?"

"Really?" Ye Ying’s eyes lit up, "Then what about you, elder brother? Can you cultivate too?"

"I’ll cultivate alongside our Ying’er. Here, drink this first."

"What is this?" Although curious, Ye Ying trusted Ye Qiu completely and drank without hesitation.

"Consider it a type of Spiritual Medicine, it can accelerate our cultivation."

"Brother, where did you get the Spiritual Medicine?"

"Though your brother doesn’t hold real power, he is still an Emperor. Don’t think of me as so useless."

"Oh." Ye Ying genuinely believed it, although Ye Qiu actually didn’t have much ability, it was merely falsehood of using items taken from his space for them siblings.

"This Spiritual Medicine is really tasty." Ye Ying smacked her lips.

"Let elder brother check your pulse again." Ye Qiu took her hand and found that the Spiritual Power in the Spiritual Spring Water was all absorbed by the pearl, and then slowly fed back to the Yuan Yin.

Ye Qiu’s face darkened, the pearl is indeed very sinister.

"Brother, how is it?"

"It’s fine." Ye Qiu acted as if everything was fine, "We will begin cultivation today. Remember, after cultivating, do not meet anyone from the National Master Mansion, nor should you meet your Second Imperial Brother and Third Imperial Brother."

"Elder brother, don’t worry. I won’t run around, besides, Second Imperial Brother and Third Imperial Brother wouldn’t come to see me anyway."

Soul Power Technique is an incredibly strong cultivation technique that doesn’t distinguish between orthodox or evil cultivation, and contains extraordinarily diverse cultivation methods. Ye Qiu truly found one suitable for Ye Ying.

He doesn’t know how the Soul Power Technique came about, but as long as there is energy, cultivation is possible. Coincidentally, this world has energy suitable for cultivators, otherwise, that State Preceptor wouldn’t have lived for a thousand years.

"Ying’er, practicing this technique might mean you can’t get married in the future, are you willing?" The technique suitable for his sister is peculiar. The Yuan Yin cannot be lost; otherwise, it’s like a wedding outfit for others. Yet, at the same time, the cultivation speed is extremely fast; it’s a matter of gains and losses.

"That’s great news!" Unexpectedly, she exclaimed suddenly, "I never wanted to get married anyway; there’s nothing good about marriage."

"Yes, not marrying, elder brother will take care of you in the future." Ye Qiu affectionately stroked her head. This is merely a temporary decision made based on the pearl within his sister’s body. Maybe a different solution will appear someday.

Compared to his sister, Ye Qiu’s cultivation is much more difficult. His body is already damaged from years of accumulated medications, with his Eight Extraordinary Meridians in a blocked state, cultivation is exceptionally challenging. Unfortunately, in the previous world, Little Golden Crow grew bored and retreated, leaving him without help.

First cleanse the body, then. He immersed himself in the Medicine Pond, sweat pouring like rain, the veins beneath pale skin protruding, ribs distinctly visible, lips sickly pale.

Unsure how much time passed, he struggled to endure the pain and rise. His body was too weak. Even the time for soaking in medicine couldn’t be long and had to be strictly controlled for both time and dosage.

A misstep and he collapsed onto the ground, gasping heavily, when suddenly he heard the call of palace attendants outside his space. "Your Majesty, are you asleep?"

"What is it?" He endured the pain and asked.

"An urgent dispatch came from the south, Lord National Master said you should take a look."

Ye Qiu’s expression sank; it’s just like this, thoroughly disregarding his frail health. Decisions long made wouldn’t allow him the qualification to take charge, yet at any moment simply demanding him to stamp them, just to broadcast how dutiful, selflessly dedicated that State Preceptor is.
