Ouchi Taming the Cat, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 639 Living in Harmony
After finishing the business, Emperor Yongyuan stood up and prepared to leave.

"I still have to go to court, so take your time eating."

The two princesses immediately stood up and saluted:
"My son, I respectfully send you my father."

When Emperor Yongyuan left, Wang Xi and other close eunuchs also left with him.

The entire Ganlu Palace suddenly became empty, with only the three little ones and Princess Yanzhao.

Princess Yanzhao had finished eating a long time ago, but she had no intention of leaving. Instead, she sat back down opposite Princess Ankang and continued to look around.

After a while, Princess Ankang and Li Xuan were almost used to Princess Yanzhao's somewhat rude gaze.

Although they had only met a few times, they had long known that Princess Yan Zhao had an unusual personality, at least quite different from ordinary people.

But Princess Yan Zhao did not show any threat, so Li Xuan and Princess Ankang had no choice but to follow her.

Under Princess Yan Zhao's scorching gaze, the man and the cat hurriedly finished the rest of their breakfast, then stood up and said goodbye:

"Second sister, if there is nothing else, Ankang will take his leave first."

Princess Ankang gave a forced smile and tried to run away while holding Li Xuan.

In the end, Princess Yan Zhao had no intention of letting them go.

"Just now, my father asked you to help me get used to the palace."

"what?"

Princess Ankang was dumbfounded. How could this be taken seriously?

"Hmm..." Princess Ankang pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then said, "Second sister, don't we still have Yuan An?"

"You two sisters haven't seen each other for a long time. Now is the time to be close. Instead of me, why not let Yuan An accompany you?"

Princess Yan Zhao glanced to the side and said, "Yuan An has been quite busy lately, dealing with the visit from the Wu family with her mother."

During the Spring Festival, these relatives would indeed visit the palace. No wonder Yuan An was not seen these days. It turned out that he was taken away by Empress Wu to meet his relatives.

But at this time, Princess Yuanan was inevitably compared with her sister who had just returned to the palace.

Princess Ankang could imagine the pain she felt when dealing with her relatives.

"Poor Yuan An..."

Princess Ankang couldn't help but shook her head.

Seeing that Princess Yan Zhao was still waiting for her reply, she had no choice but to agree to the matter.

"In that case, let me take Second Princess around the palace."

"Is Second Sister free now?"

Princess Yan Zhao nodded immediately.

Although Li Xuan and Princess Ankang felt strange, they did not sense any malice from Princess Yanzhao.

Besides, Emperor Yongyuan had spoken in person before, so Princess Ankang couldn't pretend she didn't hear it.

The two princesses immediately left Ganlu Palace together.

But after going out, Princess Ankang felt confused.

"The palace is so big, where should I start?"

Princess Ankang felt embarrassed.

"Second sister, who are you familiar with in the palace? We can go visit them first."

In response to Princess Ankang's question, Princess Yanzhao just shook her head slightly.

Princess Ankang couldn't help but feel even more headache. She couldn't just take her to visit Wuning Palace and then just throw her back home, right?

Just when Princess Ankang was in trouble, Li Xuan patted her with his tail and gestured in a direction to her.

When Princess Ankang was reminded, her eyes immediately lit up and she understood what Li Xuan meant.

"Second sister, I thought of a good place to go. Let's go there first."

Princess Yan Zhao naturally had no objection, she nodded and followed them.

On the way, Princess Ankang couldn't help but talk to Princess Yanzhao.

Princess Yan Zhao has an indifferent personality and doesn't talk much, but if you ask her something, she will respond with a nod or a shake of her head. This is an example of her being responsive to everything.

Seeing that Princess Yanzhao was not annoyed, Princess Ankang gradually opened up and kept asking questions, and Princess Yanzhao always gave a response.

It turned out that Princess Yan Zhao had been out of the palace for three years to gain experience. During this period, she had never returned to the palace once. She was either visiting martial arts sects or on her way to visit them.

Apart from this time, Princess Yan Zhao was practicing.

Princess Yan Zhao did not hide her cultivation level.

"My sister has already reached the fourth rank!?"

Princess Ankang was shocked beyond words.

Li Xuan and Yu'er are both practicing martial arts, and Princess Ankang has some idea of ​​what a fourth-rank master is.

Xu Lang, who has been accompanying them to protect them, is only a fifth-rank official, okay?

But Princess Zhenzhao was only seventeen years old when her birthday came, but she had already reached the fourth level.

Princess Ankang could now understand why other princes and princesses always had such a look of despair on their faces when they mentioned Princess Yanzhao.

The Third Prince used to be the king among the princes and princesses with his sixth-rank strength, but now it seems that the monkey is king when the tiger is away.

"When did your sister start practicing?"

"Since I can remember."

Princess Yan Zhao's answer was brief, but clear enough.

Li Xuan listened to this and couldn't help but complain silently:
"Is it possible that he was born precocious and started to remember things since his mother's womb?"

While they were chatting, they had already reached their destination.

The owner of this place was not surprised at all when he saw the unexpected visitor. Instead, he asked in confusion:
"what?"

In the Xiaoyao Villa of Caiyun Palace, the Eighth Prince seemed to have just woken up and was feeding Ah Xiang meat in the yard.

"How are you two together?"

After being stunned for a moment, the Eighth Prince asked sincerely.

"My father asked me to help my second sister get accustomed to the palace." Princess Ankang replied with a smile.

"I just remembered that I didn't greet you this morning, Big Brother?"

"So I brought my second sister to see you."

Princess Ankang spoke so beautifully.

The Eighth Prince asked speechlessly, "Ankang, when did you greet me?"

"Or am I still asleep?"

But when he looked at the cold Princess Yan Zhao standing beside him, he felt that this was not a dream.

Not everyone can give him this feeling that is enough to make him tremble.

Seeing the Eighth Prince looking at her, Princess Yan Zhao asked, "Are you the Eighth Prince?"

Princess Ankang covered her mouth and smiled. She didn't expect Princess Yanzhao to call her that too.

"Yes, Second Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time."

The Eighth Prince sighed, knowing that he could not escape today, and said:
"Wait for me for a moment. I'm going to change my clothes."

After saying that, the Eighth Prince went into the house to change his clothes.

A Xiang was left outside by him. When he saw Princess Ankang and Li Xuan, he fluttered over and rubbed against them, appearing very intimate.

Princess Yan Zhao watched from the side and couldn't help but say, "This bird has grown so big."

"Has the princess met Axiang?" Princess Ankang asked curiously.

Princess Yan Zhao nodded: "It was still a fledgling at that time."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but look at Axiang a few more times.

In Princess Yan Zhao's impression, this Saker Falcon was extremely weak and was almost abandoned, but was eventually taken in by the Eighth Prince.

And now it looks like it's being well taken care of.

Ah Xiang flapped his wings from time to time in front of the three little ones, and one could see his handsome posture when flying.

The eighth prince quickly changed his clothes and came out to meet them.

The Eighth Prince knew with his toes the reason why Princess Ankang wanted to see him. She must have wanted him to be a one-day tour guide.

In terms of familiarity with the imperial palace, Princess Ankang is probably only slightly better than Princess Yanzhao, who has been training outside for many years.

It was difficult for Princess Ankang to be her guide, so she came to the Eighth Prince, who knew everything about the palace.

"Okay, let me show you around."

The Eighth Prince said this and took over the task of being a guide.

The palace has been particularly lively these days.

Many concubines' families came to visit the palace, and one could always see some unfamiliar faces, happily being led around the palace by palace maids and eunuchs.

They had no chance to enter the palace on weekdays, and the only opportunity throughout the year was during the Spring Festival.

For them, being able to enter the palace once is a great honor.

This family is obviously an ordinary one and is definitely not a wealthy family.

On the way, when they saw Princess Ankang and others, they had to stop and salute.

Especially when he saw Princess Yan Zhao, he was extremely surprised.

But no matter how enthusiastic the other party's attitude was, Princess Yan Zhao always treated it coldly.

"There has never been any change in this palace. I don't know why Father wants Ankang to take you to visit?"

The Eighth Prince said without hesitation.

"If you were to say the biggest change in the palace, isn't it your return?"

"Myna!" Princess Ankang heard something wrong and called out. How could this sound as if Princess Yan Zhao was an outsider?

"I'm right. Ask her if she feels at home in the palace." The Eighth Prince continued.

"Have."

Princess Yan Zhao suddenly answered with a firm tone.

The Eighth Prince couldn't help but choke at this answer, but looking at Princess Yan Zhao's serious expression, he couldn't say anything else.

"Okay, I'll forgive you for my mistake, Second Princess."

The Eighth Prince bowed and continued to take them around the palace.

Actually, there is not much to see in this palace. It is a big place, but everything is pretty much the same.

After walking around the harem, the group finally went to Jingyang Palace and sat down to rest.

Yu'er served them tea, and Princess Ankang asked Princess Yanzhao:

"Second sister, is there any other place you want to visit?"

"No." Princess Yan Zhao said so, but her eyes were looking around Jingyang Palace.

“When was this place built?”

Although Princess Yanzhao had not been in the palace for a long time, she was sure that there had never been such a special palace before.

"Second sister, Jingyang Palace was only renovated at the end of last year." Princess Ankang replied.

"You don't know, Ankang was the center of attention last year. She won almost all the competitions in the imperial garden and received many good things from our father, including this renovated palace."

The Eighth Prince sighed as he drank his tea.

Compared to other people, the Eighth Prince did not have any particular fear of Princess Yan Zhao, but dared to say anything in front of her.

Princess Yan Zhao nodded and didn't say much.

Li Xuan lay comfortably in Princess Ankang's arms, looking at this martial arts genius from Daxing carefully.

Princess Yan Zhao's breath remained very stable, she must have practiced some special skills.

Li Xuan could more or less sense the fluctuations of qi, blood and true energy in other warriors.

Through these, he can easily judge the opponent's strength.

But Princess Zhenzhao is very special, she doesn't have this kind of fluctuation.

Li Xuan could only judge based on instinct that her strength must be strong.

However, Li Xuan couldn’t understand why Princess Yan Zhao wanted to practice this kind of martial arts that concealed her strength.

Logically speaking, it is not easy to develop such a powerful control technique.

"With her status, there shouldn't be many people who can threaten her."

"Of course, the person who has bad intentions towards her is definitely not an ordinary person."

"It would be nice to see her take action."

Up to now, Li Xuan still hasn't figured out the properties of Princess Yan Zhao's true qi.

The current Princess Yan Zhao is indeed not weak, but she is still far from being able to influence the situation in the world.

But if she is allowed to continue growing, this possibility is very high.

A young top master, coupled with the power of the Wu family and royal identity, is enough to rewrite the subsequent situation.

Time is on the side of Princess Yanzhao and the Wu family.

"When will you go out again?" the eighth prince suddenly asked Princess Yan Zhao.

"Where are you going?" Princess Yan Zhao's tone remained indifferent.

"Continue to travel around the world." The Eighth Prince said as a matter of course.

"I won't go for now."

Princess Yan Zhao's answer made everyone look surprised.

They all knew that Princess Yan Zhao had been training outside, and there must be more than one reason for this.

After all, there are many masters in the palace, and the skills they teach must be good.

Princess Yanzhao did not stay in the palace, it must be because she could grow up more safely outside.

Otherwise, there are many people in the palace waiting for Princess Yanzhao to get into trouble. It is no exaggeration to say that nine out of ten of them are willing to do so.

"Now he's not leaving. Could it be that he has grown up?"

Li Xuan's eyes rolled and he thought of a possibility.

If possible, he really wanted to have a good communication with Princess Yan Zhao.

It is said that she visited the eight major martial arts sacred places. I wonder if she has learned anything from them? How much does she know about the yin and yang skills of each martial arts sacred place?

With Princess Yanzhao's talent, Li Xuan felt that there might be more than one family that wanted to take her in as a disciple.

After all, if Princess Yan Zhao grows up, she will most likely become the next empress of Daxing.

Who wouldn’t want to take advantage of such a great deal?

A martial arts holy land cannot interfere with the change of dynasties, but since the empress came from her own martial arts holy land, no one else can say anything.

She was originally a princess, and they only taught her some insignificant skills because of her amazing talent in martial arts.

As for whether the other party will remember this favor and treat their martial arts holy land with preferential treatment, that is Princess Yan Zhao's personal choice.

"Ankang, are you feeling well now?"

Princess Ankang asked questions all the way today, and now it is Princess Yanzhao's turn to ask questions.

"Well, it should be fine."

Li Xuan had told her in detail about Princess Ankang's physical condition.

Although it seems there is no risk now, it is hard to say what will happen in the future.

The coldness in Princess Ankang's body is still getting stronger, and her physical fitness is becoming more and more amazing under the tempering of the coldness again and again.

Li Xuan still maintains the habit of regularly absorbing the cold for Princess Ankang.

However, his current strength can easily suppress the coldness, so it is not as dangerous as it was at the beginning.

However, it is difficult for Li Xuan to guarantee that this situation can continue.

After all, ever since he didn't have the new Yin-Yang skills, his cultivation speed has slowed down a lot.

That is to say, it was because of the absorption of the five elements reincarnation when the upper third grade fell twice that Li Xuan's strength increased significantly twice.

But Li Xuan still had no idea how to gain enlightenment and break through to the upper third level.

Elder Ye just told him not to be impatient and to consolidate his fourth-grade realm first, but the slowdown in his cultivation still made Li Xuan feel impatient.

After all, as long as the coldness in Princess Ankang's body remains, this threat will be like a thorn in the bone, and there is no telling when it will become a curse that will claim her life.

"Then can you practice?" Princess Yan Zhao continued to ask.

Princess Ankang shook her head and replied, "I tried it before, but I couldn't cultivate the power of Qi and blood."

"I understand." Princess Yan Zhao stood up and walked to the side, ready to fight. "Then I will teach you a set of health-preserving exercises."

"Ah this..."

Princess Ankang showed hesitation and looked down at Li Xuan.

The skills she practiced before were all prepared for her by Li Xuan.

Princess Ankang didn't know whether she could practice other skills at will.

After all, every time she practiced, it was to stimulate the coldness in her body, which would then be absorbed by Li Xuan.

Li Xuan immediately patted Princess Ankang's hand and gave her a reassuring look.

Before the New Year's banquet, Li Xuangang had absorbed the coldness for Princess Ankang, so even if Princess Ankang learned new skills, it would not induce the coldness in her body.

Li Xuan had done experiments on this before.

Princess Ankang finally felt relieved after getting Li Xuan's confirmation.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Second Sister."

Princess Yan Zhao nodded, but her eyes glanced at Li Xuan inadvertently. Li Xuan lowered his head and licked his paw guiltily.

"She's figured it out, isn't she?"

When Li Xuan was feeling guilty, Princess Yan Zhao had already started teaching.

"Ankang, this set of exercises is called the Record of Nourishing the Nature and Prolonging Life. It imitates the movements of the beastmen to stimulate the blood and qi in the body and strengthen one's physique."

"This first move is the bear trick, which can strengthen the body's strength. I will show you."

As she spoke, Princess Yan Zhao began to practice this method of nourishing the nature and prolonging life, imitating the bear's posture and performing some adorable movements.

But even though Princess Yan Zhao was practicing the bear scene, her movements were still full of otherworldly beauty.

Li Xuan now has a very broad vision and can immediately see that this is indeed an advanced health-preserving method, and there will be no problem for Princess Ankang to practice it.

"This guy really listens to Emperor Yongyuan."

Emperor Yongyuan had asked the two of them to get along well before. After Princess Ankang took Princess Yanzhao on a tour of the palace, Princess Ankang returned the favor by teaching her this health-preserving exercise.

Princess Ankang learned carefully and soon caught up with Princess Yanzhao's movements.

When Princess Yanzhao saw that Princess Ankang caught up with her easily, a trace of fluctuation flashed across her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.

The eighth prince also shamelessly sat aside and danced and learned from him secretly. Li Xuan could not help but cast a look of contempt on him.

"This kid is so open about stealing knowledge."

The Eighth Prince noticed Li Xuan's gaze and couldn't help but argue:

"She didn't avoid me, which means she agreed. So it doesn't count as stealing my knowledge."

Princess Yan Zhao turned around, wondering why the Eighth Prince was explaining to a cat.

But she did say that to the Eighth Prince and did not stop him from learning secretly.

Because this technique is not that easy to learn!
