The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Chapter 190 Return to Kyoto

Ali, who was locked in the disinfection room, had not yet understood what a steam sauna meant, but Su Tang and Qi Lingheng had already turned around and left the door.

Soon a layer of hot and humid water vapor appeared in the room, gradually turning the disinfection room into a small world filled with thick fog.

Ali was standing in the house and was startled by the sudden appearance of fog in the house.

But she quickly calmed down because the fog in the room was not poisonous.

But within a few minutes, the temperature in the room gradually increased. Although she had martial arts skills, she gradually couldn't stand the continued heating.

Ali groped her way to the gate again. She leaned over the only small window that allowed her to see outside and looked out. There was no one outside, only another cold door.

"Hey, let me out so we can talk." Ali kept knocking on the door.

The heat in the room had made the poisonous insects in her body restless.

The young Gu she carried with her couldn't stand this high temperature and would die soon.

And she will also be affected by the backlash because all the sub-Gu died.

After all, the mother Gu was planted in her body.

Not getting a response from the person outside, Ali continued to bang on the door unwillingly.

She gathered her inner strength and slammed the door, leaving behind banging sounds that echoed throughout the room.

"Will she shake the door open?" Qi Lingheng asked worriedly.

"No, I can manipulate the objects in this space. Even if the gate is destroyed by her, I can repair it quickly."

That is to say, she used some force to destroy the door, but at the same time as the door was destroyed, it was restored to its original state.

All her efforts would be in vain.

Qi Lingheng looked towards the direction of the disinfection room. He had never destroyed the items in the space before, but Su Tang's words just now made him want to see it for himself.

"Do you want to try it?" Su Tang saw what Qi Lingheng was thinking and gave him a knowing smile.

"Yeah." Qi Lingheng nodded.

"No need to try anything else. Look at the chair over there. Just try to chop it down and you'll know." Su Tang pointed to a chair in the room.

Although this chair is a combination of metal and plastic, under normal circumstances, it will break if it is lifted up and dropped to the ground.

The plastic part in particular is very fragile.

What's more, people like Qi Lingheng who practice martial arts can use their internal strength to chop down with a palm, and even a chair made of iron will be deformed.

Qi Lingheng walked to the chair and chopped it with all his strength.

Because the items in Su Tang's space recovered so quickly, the chair did not appear to be damaged or changed at all to the naked eye.

"It's really magical. If this thing is taken out, will it not be destroyed?" Qi Lingheng was like a curious baby at this time, staring at Su Tang with a pair of bright black eyes.

If the things in Su Tang's space will not be damaged by external forces outside, then any object she takes out from her space can be a powerful weapon outside.

"It won't work if we take it outside. It must be in space and protected by my thoughts to prevent it from breaking." Su Tang shook her head. She had already tried this outside the space.

"Oh, that's a pity." Qi Lingheng said regretfully.

"What's so regrettable about this?" Su Tang didn't care much. The items in the space originally belonged to the compound, including various medicines in the pharmacy, and they could be automatically replenished after they were used up.

Just like the water and electricity in this space, it is inexhaustible.

Su Tang controlled the temperature in the disinfection room. Finally, after making sure that all the bugs on Ali's body were killed by heat, she controlled the temperature in the room to drop.

Inside, Ali was already exhausted from the heat, and her sub-Gu had all died, so the backlash injuries were even more serious.

When Su Tang and the others opened the door of the disinfection room, she was already sitting against the wall in exhaustion, without even the strength to raise her hands.

"Heh." Seeing Su Tang and the others coming in, Ali chuckled lightly. She didn't want to talk to Su Tang and the others now.

Those poisonous insects were the ones she had carefully cultivated over the years and they were her treasures.

But now, except for the dying mother Gu in her body, all the child Gu are dead.

To cultivate new offspring would not only take a long time, but would also cost her a lot of effort to feed, which would be extremely harmful to her body.

She estimated that she would never be able to become the high priestess of the underworld.

"I'll let you go, but you'd better return to southern Xinjiang as soon as possible." Su Tang said to Ali, who had a pale face.

Ali showed no ill will towards Su Tang and the others. She followed Su Tang perhaps just to check the sign in Su Tang's hand. Su Tang didn't want to take her with her anymore.

Ali ignored Su Tang. He just glanced at the door when it opened, then closed his eyes and leaned against the wall without moving.

Su Tang gave Qi Lingheng a look, and Qi Lingheng tapped Ali's body several times with the stick in his hand, and soon Ali fainted.

"Let her out." Qi Lingheng looked at Su Tang and said.

"Yes." Su Tang nodded in agreement, "But let's send her back to the small courtyard in the border town."

"Okay, I'll let Qi Yan go." They had just left the border town, so it wouldn't take much time to send them back.

This witch no longer has any sub-Gu in her body, and will not pose a threat to Qi Yan. After all, the witch's strongest skill is still controlling the Gu worms, and her skills are far less powerful than those of the secret guards.

Su Tang let Qi Yan go to see A Li off. They were not in a hurry to leave. They found the nearest small town to stay and waited for Qi Yan to come back.

More than half a month later, Su Tang and his friends finally returned to Kyoto.

"I'm finally back." Looking at the Kyoto city wall not far away, Qi Lingheng was in a very good mood.

This time he went to the northern border to send Nalan Jinlu back, and cheated the Nalan clan out of a large sum of money.

He planned to add these silver, money and treasures to Su Tang's betrothal gift.

After such a long time, Old Madam Qi and Duke Qi in Kyoto were almost ready.

We can just wait for Su Tang and the others to come back and then we can have the wedding.

The carriage entered Kyoto City. After the guards at the city gate saw Qi Lingheng's nameplate, they let the people and the carriage enter the city without checking it.

"It seems that you are popular in Kyoto."

"Those who guard the city are also soldiers. People who practice martial arts have a very good impression of the Qi family army. Otherwise, when the Qi family was raided, I would not have been able to escape from Kyoto smoothly."

"Then how did you end up in the dental business?" Su Tang seemed to have never asked Qi Lingheng about this.

She was afraid of hurting Qi Lingheng's self-esteem before, but now that she has been with him for a long time, she found that Qi Lingheng was not as fragile as she thought.

“When we were escaping, a small accident happened. Most of the secret guards protecting me were killed or injured. The ones who survived ran in other directions to divert the pursuers. I was left alone and fainted, and was picked up by a human trafficker passing by on the road.

Afterwards, they became slaves and were transferred to remote places.

I thought it might be safer this way, so I didn’t leave in a hurry.”

Qi Lingheng did not say anything about what happened later.

Qi Lingheng didn't know how to tell Su Tang about his past life. After all, he was sometimes not sure whether it was a dream or not.

"It seems that we are destined to meet each other." Su Tang said with a smile.

"Well, it's fate."

The carriage soon arrived outside the princess's mansion. Su Tang got off the carriage and took Professor Tian back to the princess's mansion.

Qi Lingheng and his companions drove back to Duke Qi's Mansion.

"Princess, you are finally back." When Chunmei and others heard the news that Su Tang had returned, they all rushed to the outer courtyard to greet her.

"You guys are all at home." Su Tang was in a good mood looking at the four Meis.

After resting for a few more days, she would go back to Dahe Village and bring Old Man Su and his family to Kyoto.

She owed Father Su's family a lot. Now, most of the threats from Queen Xie and the Xie family had been gone, and those people no longer posed a threat to Su Tang.

Moreover, she also plans to plant the herbs she brought back from southern Xinjiang in the valley of Dahe Village.

At that time, Professor Tian will also be left in Dahe Village.

She had discussed these things with Professor Tian before, and Professor Tian agreed. After all, he felt somewhat uncomfortable living in the princess's mansion.

"Mr. Tian." Chunmei and the others stood up and bowed to Professor Tian again.

"Hey, you girls, stop worshipping me all the time. The Bodhisattvas in the temple are there for people to worship. I don't want to compete with those Bodhisattvas for incense."

"They are used to it, and you should get used to it in the future too. It's just a kind of etiquette." Su Tang said to Professor Hetian with a smile.

"Well, I'm not used to it. Oh, and I'm not used to kneeling to others either. I'm going to live in the countryside in the future."

"Okay, we'll go back in two days."

"Princess, are you still going out?" After hearing Su Tang's words, Chunmei, who was accompanying Su Tang, asked in a low voice.

"Well, I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time. I'll go back to take a look and pick up a few people. Then you can clean up the empty yard in the mansion."

After taking Old Man Su over, Su Tang thought it would be best to live with Old Man Su and his family first. Of course, she also had to buy a house for Old Man Su and his family now.

But the house I bought definitely needs to be renovated, so I guess it won’t be habitable for a while.

Su Tang didn't want to let Old Man Su's family down, so she was determined to prepare the best house for them.

"Yes." Chunmei agreed.

After separating from Professor Tian, Su Tang returned to her own residence.

Chunmei and others helped Su Tang take a bath and prepared a gorgeous palace dress for her.

When Su Tang comes back, she will definitely go to the palace to meet Emperor Jing first.

"Is there anything special happening in Kyoto recently?" After leaving Kyoto for a long time, Su Tang also wanted to hear if there was any special news.

"Empress Xie's position as queen has been abolished, and now Concubine Li is in charge of the affairs of the harem." Chunmei took the empty teacup handed over by Su Tang, turned around and put it on the table beside her and said.

"Oh? Concubine Li?" Su Tang had no impression of the women in Emperor Jing's harem. As long as they hadn't provoked her, she didn't want to remember Emperor Jing's women.

After all, the emperor has three thousand beauties in his harem, and she doesn't have the time to remember those women.

"You've seen it before when foreigners came to Dayong," Chunmei reminded.

Su Tang remembered it, but she still had no impression of what Concubine Li looked like. It seemed that Queen Xie brought two women and sat on the high platform.

It should be the Concubine Li.

"I remember there was a woman sitting on the platform. Who was she?"

"That one is Consort Xian. She doesn't like to socialize with the other concubines in the palace. She only comes out when there are special events in the palace."

So low-key?

How did she survive in the palace and even become a concubine?

The TV dramas and movies she had watched before told Su Tang that being able to survive two episodes in the palace was not as easy as it seemed.

"The second princess was arranged to marry by Emperor Jing, and she married this year's top scholar." Chunmei continued to reveal the news.

The people of Kyoto were unaware of the news in the palace; the Second Prince sent people to find out.

The second princess, Xuanyuan Mengyao, the daughter of Queen Xie.

She had been confined by Empress Xie and was not released until she reached the age of 15.

But when she came of age, Empress Xie had already been imprisoned in Fengyi Palace, so her coming-of-age ceremony was hastily held in the palace, and Emperor Jing did not even attend.

Later, Xuanyuan Mengyao caused another commotion in the palace because of this, and Emperor Jing, in a fit of rage, granted her a marriage and told her to move out of the palace as soon as possible after the marriage to avoid causing trouble in the palace.

Chunmei tied Su Tang's hair and told her about some things that happened in Kyoto during this period.

Of course, some other things were also talked about, but Su Tang just listened and smiled, and only focused on the things about Queen Xie.

"Okay, Princess, are you going to the palace now? Xia Mei just went to the palace to deliver the news that Emperor Jing has allowed you to go to the palace to meet the emperor, but Emperor Jing said there is no rush and it won't be too late for you to go to the palace after you have rested."

From the perspective of outsiders, Emperor Jing was really good to Su Tang.

"No, let's go now and come back early in the evening. I'm a little tired and want to go to bed early."

Su Tang stood up. The complicated palace dress she wore did not make her look old, but instead highlighted her noble temperament.

Su Tang entered the palace in the princess's carriage. When she arrived at the imperial study, Emperor Jing had just finished dealing with some business and had some free time.

"Tang'er greets the emperor, may the emperor be blessed with good health and happiness."

"Hahaha, Tang'er is finally back. You've been out for so long, but you're not tanned. I was worried that you would get tanned." Emperor Jing raised his hand and signaled Eunuch Fu beside him to find a seat for Su Tang.

Eunuch Fu led Su Tang to sit in an armchair, and took the tea brought by the eunuch beside him and placed it on the small table beside them.

"The eldest princess is naturally beautiful, and her skin is always smooth and tender. I am thinking of asking the princess which brand of rouge and powder she used. I will ask the eunuch beside me to buy some for her."

"Eunuch Fu, you're joking. If you hadn't told me, I would have thought you were only a few years older than me. I also wanted to ask you what skin care methods you use." Su Tang replied with a smile.

"You two should stop flattering each other. It sounds like you two are the only ones with good skin." Emperor Jing was amused by what Su Tang and Eunuch Fu said. He raised his hand and nodded in their direction.

"Where did you go when you left Kyoto this time? How come the maid you brought with you came back a few days before you? I am really worried about you."

"I'm sorry for making father worry. It's Tang'er's fault. This is Tang'er's apology for you. Please forgive Tang'er."

Su Tang said as she opened a small wooden box on the table beside her, took out an exquisite snuff bottle from it and handed it to Eunuch Fu who was standing beside her.

This snuff bottle was found by her in the space. It was a glass snuff bottle with delicate landscape paintings on it. It was the perfect gift for Emperor Jing.

"Is this made of colored glaze?" Emperor Jing looked at the snuff bottle in his hand in surprise. "Someone can actually paint inside a colored glaze bottle. This is the first time I have seen such a skill."
