Chapter 1 The Elixir of Life
"How dare you steal Eunuch Wei's lunch? You are asking for your own death!"

"Quick! Catch that little dung beetle that stole the chicken leg!"

On the imperial road of the palace, three young eunuchs were shouting and swearing, and running madly in front of them was a little girl who was thin, less than half a person's height, and dressed in thin clothes.

Helian Yu ran away, not forgetting to turn back and give the middle finger to the eunuch who was chasing and scolding her.

She was originally a rabbit spirit from Qingqiu Mountain. Apart from practicing, she loved reading storybooks all her life.

Maybe it was because she read too many books and cursed the author too many times, so she got her retribution.

After waking up, she was transported into a book for unknown reason and became a nameless cannon fodder princess in the cold palace.

The original owner had a tyrant father, who was killed by the Fourth Prince three years later. The Fourth Prince seized the throne, and one year after he ascended the throne, Daxia was destroyed.

The ones who destroyed Da Xia were none other than the heroine who traveled through time from later generations and possessed the body of the daughter of the Minister of Rites of Da Xia, and her male protagonist and supporting male group.

When reading this storybook, Helian Yu cried out in delight, but in the end, she became cannon fodder for a destroyed country.

Moreover, as a cannon fodder, she has been miserable since birth.

Born in the cold palace, the tyrant emperor was unaware of her existence. She was hungry, coldly clothed, had no money to feed herself, and was beaten and scolded by the eunuchs and palace maids.

She had never been a princess for a single day, and when the country was destroyed she would be dragged out to be buried with the people.

Helian Yu admired the original owner's tenacious vitality for being able to live to the age of six.

After traveling through time for three days, Helian Yu couldn't stand eating stale steamed buns any more, so he went to the imperial kitchen to steal a chicken leg. However, he failed on his first try and was caught by the young eunuch.

However, even if she could only survive by stealing food, Helian Yu did not want the tyrannical emperor to know of her existence.

Because four years later Daxia was destroyed and the royal family was slaughtered, they were lucky to leave even a drop of blood.

As long as no one knew that she was a royal princess, she could escape secretly, then find a place deep in the mountains to practice, and return to Qingqiu Mountain safely in the future!

Helian Yu had beautiful thoughts, but the eunuch behind him was chasing him closely.

She quickly put aside all distracting thoughts and calculated the route back to the cold palace.

He chose the right moment and rushed to a palace gate.

After many twists and turns, he finally got rid of the little eunuch.

Just as she stopped and was about to walk slowly.

Caught a glimpse of a young man in brocade robes.

Her eyes are like lacquer, her face is as white as jade, and she is as graceful as an orchid or a jade tree.

Helian Yu glared with his dark eyes and ran away.

The palace is an important place, and those who can afford to wear nice clothes all end up in a more miserable state than the others.

She didn't want to get involved.

Helian Yu didn't know that the young man in brocade robe was aroused by her evasive attitude.

The young man in brocade robes glanced in her direction and said, "Go check on that little girl."

"The slave obeys."

Cold palace.

Helian Yu jumped back to the cold palace, the chicken leg in her arms still warm.

She ran into the leaky palace and threw herself on the bed excitedly.

"Sister Yan'er, hurry up--"

Helian Yu stood beside the bed in a daze, with the chicken leg dropped to the ground. The buzzing north wind blew across her clothes, lifting the thin garment on her shoulders, revealing her skinny bones.

On the narrow bed board, Yan'er's body was covered only by a piece of rag, and the exposed parts were all blue and purple, without a single piece of good flesh.

Even Yan'er's face was covered with mottled red marks.

Helian Yu stepped forward and the door to the cold palace was kicked open.

There were several shrill cries.

"Eunuch Feng has a reward, why don't you come over here and listen to it, you damned girl?"

The young eunuch sang in his shrill voice, looking down at Helian Yu with his drooping eyes.

Helian Yu stood in the distance, his black eyes cold and icy, like an angry little beast waiting for the opportunity to bite the enemy to death.

The young eunuch was frightened by Helian Yu's gaze, and he glanced at the young eunuch who was traveling with him, raised his chin and said in a proud tone: "Eunuch Feng said that Yan'er has served the guard master with great merit, and he is specially awarded a roast chicken."

The young eunuch snorted and questioned Helian Yu: "You little girl, do you know the rules? Don't you know how to thank the grace? Eunuch Feng is kind-hearted, just be happy!" Helian Yu's eyes were red as he stared at the two young eunuchs who delivered the message. He rushed to the lame table, grabbed the roast chicken and threw it at the two of them.

"roll!"

The two young eunuchs were hit right in the face. "You, you are so outrageous! How dare you disrespect Eunuch Feng's kindness like this!"

Helian Yu grabbed the plate and smashed it against the corner of the table, breaking the porcelain plate into several pieces.

She held the sharpest piece of porcelain and stepped towards the young eunuch.

The young eunuch bullied the weak and feared the strong, so he crawled out of the cold palace.

The whistling wind blew in through the window, and through the hole in the paper on the window, I could vaguely see a small figure kneeling beside the bed, busy with something.

That night.

Helian Yu huddled in the corner of the bed, wearing the few thin clothes he had, with a blue-covered diary on his knees.

Helian Yu opened the diary.

This diary is her golden finger for traveling through books - writing in the diary can earn points, which can be exchanged for cultivation treasures.

She had been in the book for three days and hadn't written a single word.

because……

There is no pen in the cold palace.

Helian Yu raised his hand and wiped his face. The hot tears that had just shed were turned cold by the wind.

Helian Yu touched his chest, his heart shuddering.

The voice is pitiful:
"System, can you give me a pen on credit?"

【OK. 】

Helian Yu blinked her black eyes slightly. She didn't expect the system to be so easy to talk to. It was just that the voice was a little strange, as ethereal as the wind. She had been practicing in Qingqiu Mountain for several years and had never heard it before.

A fox-hair brush appeared on the bed.

The snow-white fox hair is delicate, the pen holder is straight and smooth, and it looks like it is made of high-quality bamboo or wood.

Weighing it in your hand, it feels great to hold.

After two breaths, the fox-hair brush automatically produces ink, which is extremely spiritual.

Helian Yu had seen treasures for cultivation in Qingqiu Mountain, so the fox-hair brush at this moment was not enough to surprise her.

The tender little hands hold the pen and write in the diary.

At the same time, in the Palace of Mental Cultivation.

Helian Su rubbed his brows and walked towards the inner hall, exuding a majestic and noble aura.

"Chang Hai, Xiliang has recently taken the risk of invading the border. They are really bold and reckless!"

Full of divine power and full of rage.

Chang Hai is the chief eunuch serving Helian Su. He has followed Helian Su for more than 30 years and is also the person Helian Su trusts the most.

"Your Majesty is right. Xiliang is a wild and barren land. It's simply abominable!"

Helian Su walked to the couch and saw a blue-covered diary beside the pillow, and his heart was filled with anger.

"presumptuous!"

"Your Majesty forgive me."

When Chang Hai heard Helian Su's angry shout, he immediately knelt down and apologized.

"Chang Hai, bring me the blue book on my bed. I want to see when my bedroom became a place where I can come and go freely!"

Chang Hai quickly said yes and stood up to look for the blue book that Helian Su mentioned. He stared hard, but saw that the dragon bed was clean and spotless, so how could there be any blue book!
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am so stupid that I didn't even see the blue book you mentioned."

Helian Su frowned and raised his hand to point at the blue book beside the pillow. The blue book emitted golden light, rushed towards him and sank into his forehead.

Helian Su's eyes widened, and he was horrified.

I couldn't help but spit and say: What a ghost.

Chang Hai didn't hear clearly, so he asked with concern, "Your Majesty, what did you say?"

"Alright, maybe I am tired these days and my eyes are blurry. You can leave now."
