Chapter 68 - 68 Rules



Gu Yanfei poured spiritual energy into her fingertips, then moved them gently and drew a few strokes on Gu Yunzhen’s fair forehead. Her simple movements had an indescribable beauty.

Gu Yanfei poured spiritual energy into her fingertips. Then, her fingers moved gently and drew a few strokes on Gu Yunzhen’s fair forehead. Her simple movements were indescribably beautiful.

With just a few strokes, she drew a talisman smoothly with her fingers.

Gu Yunzhen subconsciously closed her eyes. She vaguely felt a warm and comfortable sensation on her forehead, as if it had been cleansed by an invisible airflow from her forehead to her entire head.

After a moment, Gu Yanfei moved her hand away.

It was as if an invisible airflow was connected to Gu Yanfei’s finger and Gu Yunzhen’s forehead. Gu Yanfei flicked her finger and the airflow broke.

Gu Yanfei smiled in satisfaction.

The faint red scar on Gu Yunzhen’s forehead had become extremely faint, only slightly paler than the surrounding skin. If one looked closely, they would notice that it was worlds apart from its previous slightly protruding and red appearance.

Dumbfounded, Fei Cui stared at Gu Yunzhen’s forehead and shouted in surprise, “My Lady, the scar on your forehead has faded! It really has faded!”

Her eyes stung with excitement and she beamed.

Thinking back to the divine power that Taoist Shangqing Spiritual Master used in the Benevolent Harmony Hall that day, it seemed to be nothing much.

It was said that people who were good at Tao techniques had the ability to revive the dead. Could it be that the Second Lady was the same?

When Fei Cui looked at Gu Yanfei again, there was more than gratitude on her face, and she was about to kneel down.

Gu Yanfei guessed what Fei Cui was thinking and smiled without saying anything.

She had already seen the methods of the “Taoist Doctor” in this small world. This was a Tao technique within the rules of the Heavenly Tao. Others could use it, but she could also use it without harming her lifespan.

Ever since she met Shangqing Spiritual Master, she had begun to slowly explore the limits of the rules of the Heavenly Tao.

Gu Yunzhen subconsciously raised her hand to touch her forehead. Seeing this, Fei Cui quickly took a mercury mirror beside her and showed it to Gu Yunzhen.

The mercury mirror was invented by Emperor Taizu. Not only was Emperor Taizu’s martial arts far superior to that of mortals, but he was also an inventor who was good at mechanics. He invented the mercury mirror, windmills, artillery, and so on.

The palm-sized mercury mirror was as smooth as ice, clearly reflecting Gu Yunzhen’s face.

Gu Yunzhen looked at herself in the mirror in a daze, her face still filled with disbelief…

A faint smile bloomed on her beautiful lips and slowly spread to the corners of her eyes and into her eyes, like a peony flower suddenly blooming under the dazzling sunlight.

“Second Sister, you’re really amazing!” Gu Yunzhen praised sincerely.

Fei Cui nodded repeatedly and sighed. “Second Lady, the Taoist priest who taught you this method must be a god!”

Fei Cui was even more excited than Gu Yunzhen.

Her eldest daughter had always been gentle, magnanimous, and understanding. Despite having the scar on her forehead this time, she always said that it was fine, and that her bangs could cover the scar. However, how could a girl not care about her appearance!

Thinking of her master, Gu Yanfei’s smile was tainted with nostalgia. She nodded and said, “Of course!”

“To him, this is just a small trick.”

Gu Yunzhen also looked fascinated when she heard this. “This is also your opportunity, Second Sister.”

Gu Yanfei smiled happily.

Fei Cui thought of Gu Yunzhen’s wedding date and said to Gu Yunzhen in high spirits, “My Lady, when the Third Madam sees that your face has recovered, she will definitely be overjoyed.”

“Meow, meow, meow!” The kitten meowed angrily on Gu Yanfei’s knee, dissatisfied that it had been ignored.

Gu Yunzhen subconsciously looked for the cat and gently stroked its fur. Its glossy fur was smooth and soft, and it felt extremely good to the touch.

Just as she was about to hug the kitten, she heard the maidservant’s slightly uneasy report from the central room outside the curtain. “Second Lady, Miss Bai Lu from the Benevolent Harmony Hall is here.”

Seeing the look that Gu Yanfei gave her, Juan Bi lifted the curtain and left. When she returned, she was followed by Bai Lu, who was dressed in an aqua loose coat.

Bai Lu walked up to Gu Yanfei with a smile and bowed politely. “Second Lady, I’m here on Madam Gu’s orders to take that phoenix-patterned jade pendant.”

“Madam Gu asked me to remind you that only when the Gu family is well will you be well.”

Bai Lu observed Gu Yanfei’s expression and subconsciously clenched her handkerchief.

Gu Yanfei smiled and nodded. “Madam is right.”

She covered her clear eyes and did not let it cause trouble. With her free hand, she picked up the phoenix-patterned jade pendant that she had thrown aside just now and casually rubbed the jade pendant with the finger of her index finger.

Where her fingertips brushed, a white light flashed unnoticeably across the jade pendant.

The smile on Gu Yanfei’s lips deepened as she handed the jade pendant to Bai Lu.

“Thank you, Second Lady.” Bai Lu took the phoenix-patterned jade pendant respectfully with both hands and heaved a sigh of relief.

There was a huge commotion in the hall, and neither Kang Wang nor the British Duchess were willing to back down. The British Duchess did not dare to go against Kang Wang, so she took her anger out on Madam Gu and threatened to get the British Monarchy to impeach the Gu family.

Madam Gu did not want to fall out with the British Monarchy. She comforted the British Duchess and quickly instructed Bai Lu to come and find Gu Yanfei to take this phoenix-patterned jade pendant.

Bai Lu was originally worried that Gu Yanfei would not be willing to hand over the jade pendant readily, and did not expect things to go so smoothly.

“Then I’ll go back and report to Madam.” Bai Lu smiled in relief. She curtsied and left in a hurry.

Watching Bai Lu’s back disappear through the curtain, Gu Yunzhen frowned and could not help but whisper, “Second Sister, that jade pendant is Aunt’s…”

She was only halfway through her sentence when Gu Yanfei casually stuffed Qing Guang into her arms. At the same time, she let go of her hand covering the green cat’s eye, and its eyes met Gu Yunzhen’s.

Qing Guang was really cute! Gu Yunzhen immediately submitted to the charm of a cat and fell under the magic of those blue eyes.

“Qing Guang, play with Big Sister for a while.” Gu Yanfei stood up with a smile and flicked the cat’s forehead, meaning to play with her.

“Meow!” Qing Guang meowed proudly.

After a while, the bell of the rolling rattan ball sounded again in the room.

Everyone’s attention was on the cat, so no one noticed that Gu Yanfei had walked out of the boudoir alone.

The ringing behind her faded. When she walked out of Yuheng Garden, nothing could be heard.

Gu Yanfei went straight to the outer gate.

The capital was even colder in mid-November. The cold wind howled, but Gu Yanfei did not feel cold at all. She was only wearing a thin and simple dress, and her plain clothes fluttered with the cold wind.

Not long after, they saw the British Duchess walking elegantly in their direction. Behind her were seven or eight maidservants carrying heavy boxes.

The British Duchess in a dark red cloak trimmed with mink fur was as dignified and luxurious as ever. Her graceful face was tense, and her eyes were surging with extremely complicated emotions. They were filled with anger, irritation, and panic.

The moment she saw Gu Yanfei, she slowed down slightly. Her beautiful lips pursed into a cold line, and the anger that had been suppressed in her chest for a long time finally had an outlet at this moment.
