Chapter 243 – Moon Goddess: Senior Sister, how did you gain the National Advisor’s trust? Junior Sister, let me learn from your methods.
“Senior Sister, it’s late, why not rest here for the night?”
A clear voice suddenly echoed in the woods.
As if descending from the heavens, it was pleasing to the ears.
The speaker was a woman in a purple long dress.
Her figure was slim and graceful, with a wide waistband tightly clenching her willowy waist.
Her alluring figure was perfectly outlined.
Her long purple hair was striking, flowing in the night breeze.
Accompanied by the purple veil covering her eyes, she exuded an air of ethereal cool mystique.
The Moon Goddess stepped out of her carriage gracefully and approached another carriage that had stopped with hers.
The two sisters had set off from the Yin-Yang School not long ago.
One to serve the Qin State under the orders of Donghuang Taiyi.
The other to continue investigating the clues of the Azure Dragon Seven Stars.
Moon Goddess was somewhat shocked in her heart.
Her senior sister was the Dongjun of the Yin-Yang School, with a noble status and extraordinary strength.
Her temperament had always been as calm as water.
She did everything methodically, neither boastful nor impetuous.
But recently, she had been clearly different.
The closer they got to the Qin State, the more impatient she seemed.
The time they spent on the road each day also increased as a result.
Until today, even though it was already late at night, she still showed no signs of stopping.
As if she couldn’t wait to return to Xianyang immediately.
She didn’t want to wait any longer.
Fei Yan, dressed in a long black-and-yellow dress, had skin as smooth as jade, delicate and snow-white.
Her lips were red, teeth white, and her eyebrows and eyes like a painting.
Every move she made naturally revealed a sense of nobility.
Even sitting cross-legged there.
One would feel her elegance and find pleasure in observing her.
Fei Yan woke up from her meditation.
Opened her eyes, and a flash of displeasure flickered through her brows.
After a moment, she still uttered a soft voice.
“Let’s rest for a while then.”
The voice was pleasant and soothing, like a breath of spring wind, as if a gentle stream flowed through the heart.
There were still about three days’ journey to Xianyang from that place.
In fact, Moon Goddess’s feeling wasn’t wrong.
Fei Yan had already been out for more than two months.
She didn’t know if her husband had missed her these days.
Anyway, she missed him.
The closer she got to Xianyang, the more anxious she felt.
She didn’t want to wait any longer and just wanted to return to Li Mo’s side sooner.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she had a homesick longing.
But today, they had been on the road all day and should stop to rest for a while.
Otherwise, she could endure it, but the horse couldn’t.
So they would rest for a while and wait for the horse to catch its breath before moving on.
Moon Goddess’s eyes under the veil outside the carriage slightly moved.
Listening to her senior sister, it seemed they would continue the journey overnight after a short rest?
After sitting in the carriage for so long, didn’t her bottom hurt?
Oh, she almost forgot.
Her senior sister’s buttocks were plumper than hers, maybe not hurting.
But what was in Xianyang that made her always stable senior sister so eager to return?
“Senior sister, why don’t you come down for some fresh air? Don’t you feel stuffy sitting in the carriage all day?”
Moon Goddess wanted to chat more with Fei Yan.
See if she could get some information.
Fei Yan, who was about to continue meditating in the carriage, frowned slightly displeased.
The role of meditation was many, one of which was to make people feel the time’s flow less.
She had intended to use meditation to get through this long time, but Moon Goddess was outside annoying her, making it impossible to calm down.
“Senior sister, I have some dry rations. Do you want to eat some?”
Just as she thought that, Moon Goddess’s voice came from outside again.
Fei Yan took a deep breath, calming down her impulse to hit someone.
She lifted the curtain with her white hand and stepped down from the carriage.
“Don’t you think you’re talking a bit too much?”
Fei Yan coldly glanced at Moon Goddess and said unceremoniously.
In the Yin-Yang School, strength determined status.
Whether in terms of strength, status, or talent, Fei Yan was well above Moon Goddess.
So for her, there was no need to be so considerate when reprimanding Moon Goddess.
Moon Goddess’s expression remained unchanged, her tone was cool: “Junior sister is just concerned about senior sister. Why such a big grievance?”
That sentence carried a hint of sarcasm.
You’re in a bad mood; I came to care about you, and you’re angry at me.
Boo-hoo, so aggrieved.
Fei Yan’s eyebrows knitted slightly, her tone softened a bit.
“Junior sister should think about how to gain the Qin Emperor’s trust when you get to the Qin State.”
Donghuang Taiyi sent Moon Goddess to serve the Qin State just to have someone who could counterbalance Li Mo, the National Advisor, in Qin.
Otherwise, letting him dominate in Qin State alone and working with him would be like asking a tiger for its skin.
Though Yin-Yang School was ranked among the top in various sects and schools, they still couldn’t compare with a colossal state.
Li Mo and Donghuang Taiyi cooperated, but they were constantly wary of each other.
Not expecting Moon Goddess to take his place in Qin.
As long as Qin kept neutrality between them in the future, Donghuang Taiyi would be satisfied.
Without the massive backing of the Qin State, the Yin-Yang School fears no power.
For Canglong Qisu, the Yin-Yang School is determined to win.
The eyes behind Moon God’s purple veil drooped slightly, lost in thought.
“The Yin-Yang School’s astrology can deduce the secrets of heaven and peer into the future. If Junior Sister shows this method before the Emperor of Qin to gain his trust, it shouldn’t be difficult.”
After speaking, she lifted her eyes and looked at Fei Yan, asking, “What does Senior Sister think?”
The purple veil fluttered in the night wind, making her look like a fairy under the moon.
Mysterious and enchanting.
Her skirt was blown tightly against her legs, revealing her slender jade legs.
Moon Goddess had a tall figure. Though not as voluptuous as Fei Yan, she appeared with a slim waist and long legs.
The two sisters had different styles.
One was as dazzling as the scorching sun, the other as cool as the bright moon.
Not real sisters, but more captivating than a pair of twin lotuses.
“The National Advisor of Qin doesn’t need astrology to understand the past and future. Do you think you can compare with him?”
Moon Goddess was silent for a moment. After some thought, she came up with another idea.
“The Empress Dowager of Qin holds a noble status. Although beautiful, she is not young. If Junior Sister offers her ways to maintain her beauty and reduce aging, can she gain her trust?”
Although the Yin-Yang School couldn’t achieve immortality, it wasn’t difficult to maintain beauty and slow down aging.
The Empress Dowager of Qin is just over thirty and would surely care about her looks.
Moon Goddess thought this method could work.
Although it might be a bit unconventional.
But gaining her trust might be more useful than gaining the Emperor’s trust.
Fei Yan gently shook her head: “No chance.”
“Why is Senior Sister so certain?”
Moon Goddess frowned, her usually calm expression showed a change.
“Neither this works nor that, are you intentionally trying to discourage me, Senior Sister?”
Fei Yan’s lips moved slightly, a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“The Empress Dowager’s trust in their National Advisor is no less than the Emperor’s, and not long ago, that advisor provided her with beauty methods with remarkable effects. The Empress Dowager is very pleased with him.”
Moon Goddess was stunned.
She murmured, “He knows beauty methods too?”
“He…is proficient in this.”
Fei Yan found it amusing.
Of course.
Yin and Yang balance is the best beauty method.
The Empress Dowager spent the whole night with him a few days ago!
Fei Yan knew this because of the puppet maid she placed beside the Empress Dowager.
The maid conveyed messages to her every three days.
Initially, to prevent Zhao Ji from harming Li Mo.
But the last message surprised Fei Yan for a long time.
Given this relationship, how could the Empress Dowager trust Moon Goddess more than Li Mo?
“Proficient…”
Moon Goddess murmured Fei Yan’s words, finding the matter more challenging.
No way to approach the Emperor of Qin, no luck with the Empress Dowager.
Seems like the task given by Donghuang Taiyi wasn’t so easy.
Suddenly, Moon God’s eyes beneath the veil moved slightly.
Looking at Fei Yan,
“Does Senior Sister have any good strategies?”
Fei Yan immediately shook her head lightly, indicating she had no solution.
She didn’t actually want Moon Goddess to be highly regarded in Qin.
If you gain importance, wouldn’t you threaten my husband’s position?
Moon Goddess smirked, saying, “Then how did Senior Sister gain the advisor’s trust? Why not tell Junior Sister, maybe I can learn from Senior Sister and start with the advisor.”
First, gain Li Mo’s trust, then use him to display divine powers in front of the Emperor and Empress Dowager.
Gradually marginalize him, and finally replace him.
This plan was extremely malicious.
But Moon Goddess expressed it without any burden.
The Yin-Yang School has always been unscrupulous.
Fei Yan’s expression suddenly changed after hearing it. Her tone, which had just softened, turned icy cold.
Her eyes flickered with hostility.
“I advise you to drop that idea.”
Moon Goddess serving Qin under Donghuang Taiyi’s order, she could ignore.
But if she intended to use Li Mo’s trust to harm him, Fei Yan wouldn’t tolerate it.
You want to exploit my husband’s kindness to hurt him? Even if you’re my junior sister, I wouldn’t agree!
Luna never expected Fei Yan to react that intensely.
The undisguised killing intent made even her heart beat faster.
It seemed that Senior Sister’s strength had advanced further!
“Senior Sister, I was just saying, why such a big reaction?”
“Could it be that Senior Sister is worried that after I gain the trust of the National Advisor, he will ignore you?”
While Luna’s words were unyielding, her hands were already forming defensive seals, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.
