Fortune tellers give eggs, the stepmother is a Taoist boss

"Your Highness, don't you think this little bird looks a lot like us?"

Chi Xinsu glanced at the bird on the cushion from the corner of his eye. It was a very small bird, which seemed to be underage. Its wings were spread out, as if it could not stand up. There was still a little blood on the small beak, and it was drooping weakly. On soft cushions.

After a few glances, he looked away indifferently, closed his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to Bai Muxing.

With the vision cut off, his hearing became particularly keen. Chi Xinsu heard a rustling movement next to him. It seemed that Bai Muxing took a piece of pastry from the table, pinched some crumbs and sprinkled them in front of the bird.

After a while, she heard the sound of water being poured again. It was her wanting to feed the birds.

Unfortunately, the little bird didn't seem to buy it, and remained silent without any reaction.

"She was so young and suffered internal injuries after falling. There is a high probability that she will not be able to be saved." Chi Xinsu thought to himself.

He heard Bai Muxing sigh very softly, and said in a coaxing tone: "Silly bird, if you drink water and eat well, I will let you catch up with the birds immediately and return to your mother."

If the bird could understand her, it wouldn't be until it became a spirit.

As Chi Xinsu thought about it, he couldn't help but lift his eyelids and look sideways. He thought that Bai Muxing was just talking to himself and wasting all his efforts. Unexpectedly, the bird hesitated for a moment and actually started to peck at the crumbs of the pastry. .

Seeing this, Bai Muxing had a satisfied smile on his face and said softly: "You're so good, drink some more water."

The bird tilted its head again, dipped its beak into the cup in Bai Muxing's hand, and drank in small sips.

Chi Xinsu frowned when he saw this, and asked in a cold voice: "A spirit?"

Bai Muxing chuckled: "Your Highness, you are worrying too much. This is just an ordinary white-headed frog. It should be flying to the south this season. This one is probably too small to fly and fell down."

She explained, but Chi Xinsu didn't believe it entirely. He took out a demon-suppressing charm from his sleeve and threw it at the cushion.

The bird was so small that a talisman seal was enough to cover most of its body. The talisman paper fell on its slightly fluffy gray-brown feathers, which seemed to frighten it. The bird turned its head and used its small beak to remove it. Peck at the yellow paper.

"oops!"

Bai Muxing quickly snatched the talisman from his mouth, but it was too late. The bird, which had regained some of its strength, pecked a small hole in the talisman paper with a few clicks.

She held the damaged talisman and handed it back to Chi Xinsu apologetically: "Birds are ignorant, I hope Your Highness will not blame you."

The demon-suppressing talisman will spontaneously ignite when encountering spirits. This bird is indeed just an ordinary bird.

Chi Xinsu withdrew his wary gaze and accepted the talisman with a hum.

Bai Muxing, who breathed a sigh of relief, flicked the bird's head with his finger and scolded: "You careless little guy, are you also this reckless among the birds?"

The bird naturally didn't answer, but it caught Chi Xinsu's attention. He asked calmly: "Why did you just say that it is similar to us?"

Hooked.

Bai Muxing pursed his lips into a peaceful smile, sat beside the cushions and gently stroked the bird with his warm fingers, and then said in a soft and light voice unhurriedly: "In the coldest month of winter, I am helpless. The heart wants something, but it can’t be turned around.”

In just sixteen words, it contained the secrets of the royal family, the layout of the court, and the most secret and extravagant desires in his heart.

Chi Xinsu's brows frowned suddenly, and murderous intent suddenly arose in his heart.

What is her background?
Being able to know these things that ordinary people cannot know, she is definitely not the dodder raised by Yun Yahou's son.

Bai Muxing seemed to be unaware of Chi Xinsu's fierce and murderous gaze, and continued to stroke the bird and said slowly: "His Royal Highness returned to Jingzhou late, and I am afraid he doesn't know about the entanglement between Yue Zhi and our Great Shun Kingdom over the years."

"Yue Zhi has always been a subsidiary of our Great Shun Kingdom. The whole country follows the example of Great Shun in food, clothing and housing, including belief in Taoism." "A few years ago, Yue Zhi gave birth to an extremely talented Taoist priest who was said to have great admiration. Heaven and earth have the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods, and the Kingdom of Shun has suffered from constant natural disasters in the past few years. There are rumors among the people that it was the Taoist priest from Yue Zhi who acted secretly, which caused the fate of the Kingdom of Shun to be damaged."

"The rumors spread so loudly that they reached the ears of the Emperor. His Majesty believed this statement and decided to send several women to Yuezhi to assassinate Yuezhi Taoist priests in the name of marriage."

She raised her moist eyes, and there seemed to be endless sadness in them: "I am one of those women."

Chi Xinsu looked at her indifferently without making any comments.

Although the things Bai Muxing said were different from what he knew, through the ages, countless beauties have turned to bones under the power of emperors. She, Bai Muxing, was just one of the rolling torrent, and there was nothing special about her.

"I was assigned to marry the Yuezhi Huante clan. After we got married, I poisoned the Taoist priest of the Qitian sect supported by the White clan. Originally, the married woman who had completed her mission should commit suicide or stay in Yuezhi and spend the rest of her life, but I was unwilling to do so."

The tears from Bai Muxing's eyes rolled down silently and dripped into the cup for the birds to drink.

"Why is it me... Just because my mother is a Kun Dao, and just because I am the son of a Tao that violates human ethics, I will be abandoned by my family and sent to a bitter and cold foreign country to become a knife for others..."

As she sobbed, a sharp blade was stabbed into the secret corner of Chi Xinsu's heart.

The wall he had built in his mind over the years seemed impregnable, but in fact every connection point was fragile. Just a slight push at these connections could make his wall collapse, let alone a sharp blade.

Chi Xinsu swallowed hard with his dry throat, and he said in a low voice: "Your mother, is she Kun Dao?"

"Yeah." Bai Muxing sniffed, as if he suddenly realized his gaffe, and explained in panic.

"Your Highness, I didn't mean to compare myself with you. I, I... just thought of this little bird's situation, and also thought of my own situation in Yuezhi. I heard that Your Highness was in the court before... Ah no, What did I say! I am really..."

The more she spoke, the more confused she became. In the end, she simply bit her lower lip and became silent. She only peeked timidly to see Chi Xinsu's reaction.

Chi Xinsu loosened his hands under his wide sleeves, gently held the fly whisk again and said calmly: "It doesn't matter."

Bai Muxing seemed to be frightened by his gaffe, still lowering his head and saying nothing, his shrunken shoulders shaking slightly.

Chi Xinsu glanced at her, and interrupted in a soft voice: "What do you mean by letting it catch up with the birds immediately and return to its mother?"

"Ah?" Bai Muxing seemed to wake up from a dream, blinked her eyes, and realized that Chi Xinsu would not hold her accountable for her rudeness. She breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "It can't really be allowed to catch up. Birds..."

As she spoke, she took out a jade pendant from her arms: "This is a mirage from Yuezhi. It can summon mist to create dreams. I just want to use this to create a good dream for the birds to go home."

Chi Xinsu asked curiously: "How can jade create dreams? Have you tried it?"

Bai Muxing nodded: "The dream of mirage is woven by the person who masters jade. In the mirage dream, you are the leader of the dream world, and you can get everything you want in the dream."

She pursed her lips and smiled sheepishly: "I often used mirage to dream in Yuezhi. In the dream, I could go back to Dashun, do morning lessons with my mother, chant sutras and read. Now half of my dream has come true, this mirage There is less of it, I didn’t expect it to come in handy again today.”

As she spoke, she held the mirage in one hand and gently held the bird in her other hand. In just a few breaths, a faint mist rose out of thin air, and the bird on the cushion closed its eyes and lay meekly on the cushion. .

Chi Xinsu was stunned: "Is it in a dream?"

Bai Muxing did not answer, but the state of the bird answered Chi Xinsu's question.

Its little head rubbed against the soft cushion, its black little paws kicked and kicked, and from time to time it opened its bright yellow beak and made a happy chirping sound.

It has returned to the flock, to the mother bird, in the dream created by the mirage.

Next, it will be the first update every day. Kavin, wait for me to sort it out. When I sort it out, I may resume the second update.
