Gu Chengrui approached her and saw her standing in a daze in the courtyard. He went up and hugged her from behind. “What happened?”
“Something good. I can now use my mental power, or rather, I’ve gained the spiritual sense mentioned in those fantasy novels.”
Gu Chengrui was stunned by her words. When he realized what she was talking about, he asked excitedly, “Really?”
“It’s true. This might be something 1 already had a long time ago, but it was never discovered. When 1 found it today, it was capable of reaching out a radius of about ten miles.”
“That’s great news! It’s like a radar, and it’ll be much more convenient for us in the future.”
“Yup. By the way, there are still some dandelions, plantain seeds, heart-piercing lotus, and other medicinal herbs left untouched by the refugees in the mountains. Let’s go up the mountain to look for them after dinner.”
“No problem, I’ll call Chengxi over as well when the time comes.” Gu Chengrui said.
“Okay, let’s take a shower first in the interspace.” Zhou Ying turned around and went back to her room.
The two of them entered her interspace, and after taking a shower, they made a bowl of soup noodles and two poached eggs.
After eating, Gu Chengrui called Gu Chengxi over and entered the mountains, with Er Zhuang following.
This time, because of Zhou Ying’s spiritual sense, their harvest was bountiful.
At the same time, Zhou Ying once again scattered some wild vegetable seeds, especially lettuce and spinach. These two would be ready to eat when autumn comes along.
Three days later, the Emperor received the Third Prince’s memorial through a secret passage, and he froze after reading it.
He didn’t expect that there were indeed gods in this world.
Would Mother God know about what he had done before? Would she find trouble with him?
However, he quickly shook his head. There were many famous rulers, tyrants, and power struggles in history, but he had never seen any of them punished.
It was clear that she would not interfere in these things.
As for the authenticity of the memorial, he did not doubt it. After all, no matter how capable his third son was, he couldn’t conjure up so many grains and seeds out of thin air.
Besides, he wouldn’t have the guts to lie to the Emperor.
He looked at Eunoch Li, who was looking at him worriedly, and asked, “Li, how much do you know about Mother God?”
“Mother God? You mean the goddess worshipped in the Mother God Temples?” “Yes, that’s her, I think?”
“To be honest, I have always heard from the older generation that every time there was a great disaster, she would provide disaster relief and food to the refugees. However, I have never seen it in person.
“However, I’ve heard that there are rumors of Mother God in the market, and some of them have already gone to the Mother God Temple to offer incense.” “Did they get anything?”
“I’m not too sure.”
“Send someone to investigate and give me a definite answer at this time tomorrow.”
“Yes, I will make the arrangements.” Eunuch Li left after he finished speaking.
After the Emperor read through the memorial again, he frowned.
The promotion of sweet potato plants was a major event in the future. Why did Mother God choose his third son?
Was it because he had already been promoting the sweet potatoes before, or was there some other reason he didn’t know? Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and rested.
A moment later, he opened his eyes and called out the head of the guards, Xiao Heng. He then had them check on the princes’ situation.
The following day, the Emperor had just returned to his study room after the morning court session when Chief Xiao walked in. “Your Majesty, as far as I know, the First and Fourth Princes received news of Mother God’s manifestation two days ago.
“However, they didn’t believe it, so they commanded their subordinates to spread the word and allowed commoners, particularly beggars, to go and offer incense. It appears that they have yet to receive a definitive answer..”
