Chapter 981: Yun Luofeng Poaching (3)

Qing Mu nodded. "Due to Noble Consort, His Majesty is very biased against her. An unprecedented genius will be buried here."
If Yun Luofeng could enter the Tianhui Empire and received the full nurturing of the empire, her growth would be extremely fast.
Ge Yang also found it a pity. "Miss Yun is a genius indeed. If our Tianhui Empire could possess her, the imperial physician court's strength would increase quite a bit. However, loyal advice jars on the ears. His Majesty has been completely bewitched by Noble Consort Ling, so how could he listen to us?"
Qing Mu paused before saying, "I plan to visit Miss Yun. Even if I can't work with her, there's no harm in studying medicine with her."
"Alright." Ge Yang nodded. "I need to prepare for this afternoon's competition, so I won't go. Also, you should warn Miss Yun to be cautious of the Lanxiang Kingdom! I heard that Noble Consort Ling's palace maid went to invite Miss Yun and was rejected by her. With Noble Consort Ling's personality, she won't take things lying down."
Qing Mu was silent for a moment. "I will remind her."
After saying that, he quickly headed towards the gate of the Imperial Palace and gradually disappeared from Ge Yang's sight.
Ge Yang looked at the tightly shut door of the imperial study and shook his head in disappointment.
Ever since His Majesty obtained Noble Consort Ling, his heart had not been in the court politics, causing many ministers like him to become thoroughly disappointed long ago. If the Tianhui Empire did not have a certain sir supporting it, it would have long since declined. If His Majesty continued like this, it would be better off for ministers like him to retire. Finding somewhere else to live in seclusion would be better than staying here.

Rest Station
After Yun Luofeng, Lin Ruobai, and the others went on separate ways in the courtyard, they each returned to their own room. However, before Yun Luofeng had time to rest, a series of knocks were heard.
"Miss Yun, this old crock intentionally came to pay you a visit. Do you happen to have the time?"
An extremely familiar aged voice was heard from outside the door.
Yun Luofeng hurriedly dressed and sat beside the table. Then she called out "Enter" while raising her brows.
The room's door was pushed open, and Qing Mu's geriatric figure slowly entered.
"Did Great Master Qing Mu come to find me for some important matter?" the young girl genially asked.
Qing Mu sighed. "Miss Yun, I originally wanted to recruit you to the Tianhui Empire, but was rejected by His Majesty."
Hearing his words, Yun Luofeng chuckled. "Great Master Qing Mu, I am from the Tianyun Kingdom, and my man's roots are also there. Even if the Emperor of the Tianhui Empire didn't reject it, I can't join you."
Jun Fengling married into the Ye Family, which meant that Yun Xiao's roots were also there. There was absolutely no way that she would leave the Tianyun Kingdom!
...
Moreover, in contrast to the incapable ruler, Long Yuan, the Emperor of the Tianyun Kingdom was more open-minded.
Qing Mu said with a wry smile, "Miss Yun, I came here to remind you to be cautious of the Lanxiang Kingdom harming you."
The Lanxiang Kingdom?
Yun Luofeng slightly narrowed her eyes. "If they want to die, why shouldn't I let them?"
Qing Mu was briefly taken back and helplessly shook his head.
"Don't underestimate the Lanxiang Kingdom. It has more sage-level cultivators than the Tianyun Kingdom. Moreover, Noble Consort Ling is pretty favored by His Majesty. So if you harm the Lanxiang Kingdom, His Majesty certainly won't leave the matter at that!"
Qing Mu's words carried some disappointment. "If it weren't for my initial conviction supporting me, I would have left the Tianhui Empire long ago!"
Hearing Qing Mu's words, Yun Luofeng's eyes twinkled.
