Chapter 1078: The Spotted Bamboo Flute

During this time, Ning Shu had kept trying to practice the Unsurpa.s.sable Martial Arts, but she still wasnt able to get any energy to form.

Generally, it was only near impossible to get energy to form in modern worlds where the spiritual energy was spa.r.s.e. In ancient era worlds, it was usually possible to make weak energy form in her body. However, even though she had spent a lot of time on training this body, it was still useless.

When she trained, shed start sweating and expel some of the poison left by the pills, but this wasnt enough.

The hidden guard that Ning Shu had sent to keep an eye on Mu Xue had returned to report her findings.

Ning Shu mentally sorted out what the hidden guard had said. Basically, Mu Xue now only wore black in her own residence and never wore any jewelry. She barely allowed any servants to attend to her and also never entered the back courtyard.

She had also started binding her chest.

From these factors, Ning Shu was now certain that it was a man inside Mu Xues body, and this man clearly believed strongly in masculinity.

It was seriously getting more and more lively.

However, Mu Xue had done one good thing, which was that she established punctuation marks. It was now much easier for Ning Shu to read the memorials and deal with government affairs.

For now, she was going to follow Mu Nichangs path and get rid of Mu Xues position as the heir apparent. Could it be that Mu Nichang had discovered something, that was why she had risked the stability of the nation to remove Mu Xues crown prince status?

She had discovered that it was a mans spirit inside Mu Xues body?

The original host didnt give Ning Shu much useful information.

But it was clear by now that this task wasnt going to be simple.

She had really been naive before to think that this task would be simple.

Ning Shu felt that her tasks were becoming increasingly difficult. Was it due to her luck or was the system doing this on purpose?

During this time, she hadnt been visiting the inner palace, so Liu Changqing would occasionally bring her some nouris.h.i.+ng soup. His expression was mild as he told Ning Shu to pay attention to her health like he was carrying out a mere formality. It really made Ning Shus b.a.l.l.s hurt.

Every time she saw the spotted bamboo flute hanging by Liu Changqings waist, shed feel the urge to ask about where this flute came from. Liu Changqing seemed to treasure it a lot. It was always with him except when he was sleeping.

Ning Shus heart was going crazy from the itch of curiosity, so she couldnt stop herself from asking, Phoenix Empress, does this flute have some meaning?

Liu Changqing untied the flute and lifted it as he said, Changqing had personally made this flute.

The spotted bamboo flute had traces of mottled marks, like someones tears had fallen on it. Ning Shu nodded as she said, Phoenix Empresss craftmans.h.i.+p is quite good.

Liu Changqing pressed his lips together, his expression a little despondent. He reminded her to remember to drink the soup, then left.

Ning Shu was completely baffled. Did she say something wrong? Why did it feel like Liu Changqing was angry?

Could it be that she shouldnt have praised his craftsmans.h.i.+p and shouldve said that the flute looked good?

Your Majesty, you and the phoenix empress had planted spotted bamboo together when you two were children. Court Lady Qiu finally couldnt look on anymore.

Ning Shu: (0)
