616 The Might of the Gu Queen, Destiny (1)

Gu Elder Meng brought the Gu Queen back to the State Preceptor Hall.

The State Preceptor and Nangong Li had been waiting for a long time. Although the Gu Queen was not a true holy artifact, she was the Gu closest to it. All these years, they had gone to the Gu Mountain to search for its traces, but they had found nothing.

Now that he was really going to see it, even the State Preceptor could not help but be a little excited.

Gu Elder Meng walked forward and gently opened the lid of the box. He took out the jade bottle containing the Gu Queen. He took out a jade bowl from the box he carried with him. “State Preceptor, please get someone to bring some ice.”

The Gu Queen was greedy for coldness. If it was placed on ice, it would stay there and not leave.

The State Preceptor asked his disciple to take the sealed ice from the cellar.

Gu Elder Meng knocked a small piece and placed it in the bowl. Then, he put on his silver gloves, opened the lid of the jade bottle, and poured out the little thing inside.

Everyone finally saw the snow-white little thing. Although it was called a snow toad, it was not a real toad. However, it would occasionally let out a toad-like cry.

“It’s so beautiful,” Nangong Li exclaimed.

It was clearly a Gu worm, but it was lying lazily on the ice, exuding nobility and elegance. He could actually feel these two characteristics from a Gu worm. It had to be said that it was indeed a treasure.

Nangong Li had never cared about Gu worms. He always felt that just looking at them made his hair stand on end. However, if it was this little thing, Nangong Li felt that he might be able to raise it.

“Is it a female Gu?” Nangong Li asked.

Gu Elder Meng shook his head. “No, it’s a male Gu. It’s called the Queen because it’s too beautiful.”

Nangong Li nodded in enlightenment. The little thing was too likable. He could not help but stretch out his finger, wanting to touch it.

Gu Elder Meng grabbed Nangong Li’s finger with his silver gloves. “Your Highness, be careful. It’s poisonous.”

This little thing was beautiful. It looked gentle and harmless, but it was actually extremely poisonous. Even Asura would fall to the ground if it bit him.

Of course, it would not bite Asura. Asura’s blood was too hot, and it would feel uncomfortable.

Nangong Li admired it carefully and asked Gu Elder Meng to put it away. “With this, my mother can regain her position as the Queen.”

Nangong Li left the State Preceptor Hall overnight and returned to his residence.

Before Nangong Yan was conferred the title of Queen, she had always lived in the palace. At the same time as she was conferred the title of Queen, the Emperor gave her a Queen Manor.

Now that she was no longer the Queen, she could not continue to live in the manor. However, the Emperor did not forgive her, so he did not allow her to move back to the palace. She could only stay in a house that she had once bought.

This could also be considered a superior courtyard, but it could not be compared to the Queen Manor. In comparison, it showed that it was in dire straits.

The Little Commandery Princess had already cried countless tears and had already gone to her room to rest.

Nangong Yan sat alone in front of the window, staring blankly at the silent courtyard.

The Queen Manor also had a courtyard that was countless times bigger than this place. There were precious peony and orchids planted there, but there were only a few peony flowers and mottled weeds here.

“Mother!” Nangong Li strode in.

Nangong Yan slowly turned her head and looked at him blankly. “You’re back.” Even her voice became old and hoarse.

Nangong Li’s heart ached. Was this still the radiant Queen? Why did she become neither human nor ghost in just a few days? He knew that what made his mother so dispirited was not only the loss of the position of Queen, but also the loss of the Prince Consort she had loved deeply for many years.

That man was really heartless!

One day of married life breeds days of enduring affections. No matter how wrong his mother was, she was still his wife whom he had spent many years with. How could he leave when his mother needed him the most?

The Emperor had only taken away his mother’s power and status. But he had really stabbed his mother in the heart! Even if he was really his father, he still hated him!

“Mother.” Nangong Li composed himself and suppressed the churning emotions in his heart. He squeezed out a gentle tone and said, “I obtained the Gu Queen.”

Nangong Yan’s reaction was not as excited as he had imagined. She only nodded indifferently and turned around to continue staring blankly at the overgrown courtyard.

Nangong Li walked forward. “Mother, with this, we can regain the position of Queen.”

Nangong Yan did not say anything.

Nangong Li knew where the knot in his heart was. His eyes moved and she said, “When we regain the position of Queen, we can think of a way to get Father back.”
