The purpose of this trip was to select officials for the Imperial Court; she and Xiao Pingfeng had already witnessed Hao Ren's paternal love for his people and his hatred for evil, and that was enough.
Therefore, the exposure of her identity was no serious harm to her.
Seeing Hao Ren look at her with such respect, Yan Wanqing knew for sure that Ji Yuntai must have said something to him.
"I hear the County Magistrate keep calling Brother Yuntai 'elder brother,' are you fellow disciples?"
"This humble official and elder brother were indeed initiated into the same door and together took the Immortal Zhang of Penglai as our master," replied Hao Ren at once.
Immortal?
A flicker of doubt crossed Yan Wanqing's eyes.
"Could it be that there really are immortals in this world?"
Just as Hao Ren was about to speak, Ji Yuntai smiled and interjected, "If you wish to know, you can come back with me."
"To return with you to Penglai?" Yan Wanqing's heart was stirred.
