The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

Chapter 166 I Still Can’t Let You Go

"Okay, Miss Wang!" Eunuch Xu nodded slightly, with a kind smile on his face.

Then he turned his gaze to Zhao Haoxuan standing beside him and asked in confusion, "Your Highness, I am confused as to why all the soldiers address Miss Wang as Madam. I wonder what your relationship with Miss Wang is?"

Hearing this, Wang Xinyao blushed slightly. She quickly said, "Father-in-law, you don't know this. This is just a temporary solution. In order to hide Brother Zhao's true identity, we have no choice but to pretend to be a couple!"

After saying that, she bit her lip lightly and looked away shyly.

At this moment, Zhao Haoxuan suddenly stepped forward and said firmly, "No, that's not the case! Xinyao and I are truly in love. This marriage is not a pretense; it comes from the heartfelt sincerity. Don't worry, eunuch. I will personally explain this matter to my father!"

When Eunuch Xu heard this, he was shocked. He opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't utter a word.

He stared at the two people in front of him with wide eyes in disbelief, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

Afterwards, they chatted for a while and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed.

After Wang Xinyao said goodbye to everyone, she took brisk and firm steps and rushed towards her home.

Her graceful figure looks even more beautiful in the afterglow of the setting sun, like a beautiful painting.

After a while, she arrived at the door of her house. As soon as she entered, she did not even take a break and immediately began to take inventory of the various supplies available.

After a careful inventory, it was found that although a considerable amount of grain had been sold before, fortunately the remaining part was still sufficient to sustain for a period of time.

However, when her eyes turned to the water source, she couldn't help but frown.

There might be a drought next. After thinking for a while, Wang Xinyao found several containers of different sizes and put the spiritual spring water into these containers for proper preservation.

Not only that, in order to further increase the reserved water volume just in case, she also specially added some spiritual spring water into the deep well in her home.

In the following days, Wang Xinyao rushed between the villages in Nanhu County during the day, busy storing clean water in the fields.

Every night, Wang Xinyao entered the ring and devoted herself to the work of refining the elixir, not daring to stop for a moment.

Just as Wang Xinyao was concentrating on refining the elixir, suddenly, a slight noise came into her ears.

She was extremely alert and stopped what she was doing instantly and came out of the ring space immediately.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar figure quietly appeared outside the house. Zhao Haoxuan returned under the cover of night.

"Xinyao, I'm still worried about you." He looked worried.

Wang Xinyao comforted him, "Brother Zhao, don't worry. I will act with caution. Although this trip to the capital is dangerous, it is also an opportunity. It would be a good thing to understand the current situation in the capital in advance!"

"But..." Zhao Haoxuan was still hesitating.

Wang Xinyao comforted him, "Brother Zhao, don't worry. When we get to the capital, I will dress up before entering the palace."

At this time, Zhao Haoxuan took out a protective jade pendant and handed it to her, "Xinyao, this is the golden medal of immunity from death. Take it with you in case of emergency."

Wang Xinyao accepted the jade pendant, feeling deeply moved. She continued, "Okay, Brother Zhao! I'll visit the farm that Mr. Wu gave me while I'm in the capital. The next rice planting season should also be started in the capital."

After saying that, she took out all the hundreds of pills she had recently refined and gave them to Zhao Haoxuan.

Time passed quickly, and ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Eunuch Xu came down from the mountain early and waited at the restaurant.

"Miss Wang is truly a trustworthy person!" Eunuch Xu praised with a smile on his face.

Wang Xinyao smiled slightly upon hearing this, nodded gently, and said softly, "Thank you for the compliment, eunuch. Let's set off now without further delay."

After saying that, she stepped lightly onto the carriage and skillfully controlled the horse.

Eunuch Xu was not to be outdone. He got on his own carriage, waved the whip, shouted, and the two carriages set off together.

The road was bumpy along the way, and after a long journey and many days of bumpy ride, they finally arrived at the prosperous and bustling capital.

As soon as you enter the city, you can feel the bustling atmosphere here which is different from other places. There are shops on both sides of the street, and pedestrians are everywhere. The sounds of hawking and bargaining can be heard one after another, which is very lively.

Eunuch Xu and Wang Xinyao found a rather elegant restaurant near the imperial palace and rented two guest rooms to rest temporarily.

After a short rest, Wang Xinyao began to dress up carefully. Not long after, when she appeared in front of Eunuch Xu again, she had transformed into a playful and cute little eunuch.

She was wearing a light blue eunuch's uniform, a white belt around her waist, and a pair of black cloth shoes with white soles.

She even put some black powder on her face, covering up her originally fair skin completely, leaving only a pair of bright big eyes showing, which rolled around and revealed a bit of cleverness.

"Oh my, I didn't expect that Miss Wang has such a unique skill!" Eunuch Xu looked at Wang Xinyao's outfit with admiration in his eyes, and couldn't help nodding and praising her.

Wang Xinyao felt a little embarrassed when Eunuch Xu praised her like that. She smiled lightly, and a slight blush appeared on her cheeks.

Then, she skillfully boarded Eunuch Xu's carriage, shook the reins in her hand, and shouted softly, "Go!"

The carriage then sped forward steadily like an arrow.

With the rumbling of wheels and the sound of horse hooves, they soon arrived at the gate of the palace.

I saw that the towering palace gate was closed, and two rows of fully armed guards stood at the door, each of them looking solemn and majestic.

Eunuch Xu calmly opened the curtain of the carriage, took out a golden token from his bosom and handed it to the leading general.

The general took the token and examined it carefully, then immediately saluted respectfully and waved his hand to signal his men to pass.

So, Eunuch Xu and Wang Xinyao entered the palace smoothly.

The moment you step into the palace, it feels like you have stepped into a completely different world.

The vermilion palace walls are tall and majestic, stretching endlessly, as if silently telling the majesty and mystery of the royal family.

The glazed tiles on the wall ridge sparkle brightly under the sunlight, and the brilliant colors are dazzling.

Walking along the wide stone road, you will see exquisite stone carvings on both sides, which are lifelike.

When Zhao Guoan was handling government affairs in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, a young eunuch hurried in to report that Eunuch Xu had returned.
