Since Yun Sheng didn't have to worry about the marriage, she put all her focus on studying how to save the Puffed Egg.
In the past few days, the Puffed Egg had been placed in the Exquisite Beast Pagoda. Yun Sheng would visit it from time to time, but the Puffed Egg was still the same.
On its pink eggshell, the crack caused by Hei Linlin was still the same.
The liquid in the eggshell had already flowed out. No matter how Yun Sheng called out, the Puffed Egg didn't respond.
When Yun Sheng brought Ye Beiming into the Exquisite Beast Pagoda, Ye Beiming couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder.
"Little Wild Cat, no wonder all your magical beasts are so heaven-defying. It turns out that you have such a treasure." Ye Beiming also knew that Yun Sheng had a lot of secrets, but he didn't ask about them.
This was his unique way of getting along with his little wild cat. Just like how Yun Sheng never asked about Ye Beiming's Darknorth Guard and the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce.
In the future, even after the two got married, Ye Beiming still didn't intend to ask about Yun Sheng's matters.
Yun Sheng had a lot of unknown secrets. These secrets probably had nothing to do with the Yun Mansion.
Ye Beiming had long been aware of this. He didn't ask because he firmly believed that one day, Yun Sheng would be ready and take the initiative to tell him.
Yun Sheng told Ye Beiming how to control the Exquisite Beast Pagoda. Ye Beiming was really smart. In just half a day, he mastered the method of using the Exquisite Beast Pagoda.
Inside the Exquisite Beast Pagoda, Ye Beiming drew a Magic Array and moved the Puffed Egg into the Magic Array. Then, he continuously sent his magic power into the Magic Array.
With the increase of his magic power, the magic power in the Magic Array played a role.
On the pink Puffed Egg's shell, magic was slowly repairing the cracks.
Even Ye Beiming had expended a large amount of Mana to repair the spell.
Although the cracks on the Puffed Egg didn't heal immediately, Yun Sheng could see that the cracks on the Puffed Egg's shell were shrinking.
Yun Sheng stepped forward and touched the Puffed Egg's shell.
The originally cold eggshell gradually warmed up.
Yun Sheng could feel a slight pulse in the eggshell.
"If nothing unexpected happens, the crack in the Puffed Egg should be completely repaired in a few days." After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Ye Beiming and Yun Sheng left the Exquisite Beast Tower.
"Yun Sheng, I want to take you to a place." After a short rest, Ye Beiming led Yun Sheng to the Imperial Palace.
Zhou State's Imperial Palace was very large. Ye Beiming led Yun Sheng through palace after palace. In front of them was a deserted palace wall.
The vermilion red palace wall had fallen off due to years of disrepair.
"This is the Cold Palace. It is also the place where my Imperial Mother and I lived when we were young." Ye Beiming looked at the palace wall with a deep gaze.
The Cold Palace was a forbidden area in Zhou State. It imprisoned some unfavored concubines and palace maids.
Not many people who entered this place could leave. When the Emperor of Zhou State imprisoned Ye Beiming and his mother, he didn't plan on letting them leave alive.
Ye Beiming walked out.
However, after he walked out, he never brought anyone here again.
Every time he came back, he was alone. He didn't even allow his guards to accompany him.
The Cold Palace. In Ye Beiming's heart, it was his most painful and darkest memory.
This place witnessed Empress Li's tragic life. It also witnessed Ye Beiming's dark childhood.
Pushing open the door, there was no dust as expected.
The Cold Palace was very large. There wasn't even a single leaf in the courtyard.
"I promised Imperial Mother that if I met the person I loved in the future, I would definitely bring her to the Cold Palace to pay respects to her." Ye Beiming held Yun Sheng's hand and walked into the depths of the Cold Palace.
Empress Li's everlasting memorial tablet was enshrined there. It was managed by an old palace servant who was in charge of looking after the Cold Palace.
After more than a year in Banana Leaf Village, as long as Ye Beiming was in Yujing City, he would come over to offer incense to Empress Li.
Next to the memorial tablet, there was a painting in black and white ink.
The painting was not bad. The woman in the painting was vivid and lifelike.
It was a beautiful woman in the prime of her youth. She was wearing the most luxurious empress robe. However, her face was cold and unsmiling. There was an indescribable worry between her brows.
The woman's appearance was very similar to Ye Beiming.
Back then, when Yun Sheng didn't know about Ye Beiming's true identity, she still felt that compared to Ye Beiming, Ye Beiming didn't really look like the emperor of Zhou State.
Now that she looked at it, Ye Beiming's appearance was very similar to the number one beauty of Zhou State, Empress Li.
"This was drawn by a court painter. I have been blind since I was young. When Imperial Mother died, I didn't even see her appearance. All my memories of Imperial Mother are based on this painting." Ye Beiming walked forward and lit an incense stick.
Yun Sheng also followed and lit an incense stick.
Yun Sheng looked at the woman in the painting.
Empress Li was a legendary figure. Her appearance was unparalleled in the world. At the same time, she was a very capable woman.
A large part of the reason why the emperor of Zhou State could ascend the throne was because of Empress Li.
Yun Sheng looked at Empress Li and sighed inwardly. She was also a pitiful woman. Just like her in the past, she was wholeheartedly devoted to Liu Minglang. In the end, she was also abandoned.
But Empress Li was even more miserable than her. At least now, she had met Ye Beiming.
Every woman would probably encounter a few scumbags before finding the right person.
Ye Beiming had brought Yun Sheng here tonight to tell her about his past with Empress Li.
When Yun Sheng was in Later Qin, she had also learned from Hei Linlin and Dugu Xiu that Ye Beiming was the son of Hei Yao and Empress Li.
She had originally thought that Empress Li and Hei Yao had an old relationship.
But the truth was not as she had imagined.
Before Empress Li married the emperor of Zhou State, she was the daughter of the number one merchant in Zhou State.
At that time, Empress Li had not yet been suppressed by the terrifying prison of the palace. She, Yun Ying, had not yet married. As the Li family had no children, Ye Beiming's grandfather had raised Empress Li as a man since she was young. This had also nurtured Empress Li's smart and capable personality.
When she was 13 years old, she began to dress up as a man and followed Ye Beiming's grandfather out to do business.
When Empress Li was 14 years old, she had met Hei Yao by chance when a caravan went out to do business.
At that time, Empress Li did not know that Hei Yao was a descendant of the Bahuang clan.
Empress Li had been kind since she was young. She liked to help poor people and stray cats and dogs.
She had found Hei Yao on a hillside near the Dutian Beast Blood World.
At that time, Hei Yao seemed to have suffered a serious injury. His entire body was covered in wounds.
Empress Li ignored the advice of others and saved him.
To Empress Li, this was not a big deal. This was just an interlude in her journey. It was just like when she saved a cat or dog when she was young.
Empress Li did not know that her kind rescue this time would bring her endless pain and disaster in the future.
