I, the peerless enchantress, and those decent fairies

No matter how powerful your cultivation is, you still can't understand the speech of small animals in the end. After all, the racial barrier is there.

But it was a good thing that he didn't understand what I said, otherwise I would have known that she was angry and even hit her. I was glad that I was just a poor little fox.

And then, Ruan Yi was so well-behaved that she cooperated with everything he did.

But it was different now. Halfway through the wash, Ruan Yi changed from being gentle and submissive just now to her hair standing up desperately. She looked even scarier than at the beginning, as if she would rather die than surrender.

They are all women, why are they so rebellious?

In the end, Si Huang still used his spiritual power to make Ruan Yi completely wiped out, and also used his spiritual power to dry all the hair on the little fox.

Why do I have to use my hands to do something that can be done with spiritual power...

In the end, he still wants to take advantage of himself.

Ruan Yi looked at Si Huang with her watery eyes, who now had a satisfied look on his face. It would be great if she could name a price.

There is a clear price for touching the hair. Maybe I can have this idea. When Ruan Yi was held in the empress's arms again, she gently stroked the empress's palm with her soft little claws.

Although he only wrote one word, Si Huang was so surprised. "So there is such a method... Can we communicate like this in the future?"

Even if they don't turn into humans, even if they are just animals, the two of them can still communicate. In this case, they are a perfect match. Otherwise, they should just keep turning into small animals!

This must be what the empress is thinking now. She doesn't want to see her human appearance no matter what.

If that's the case, then don't blame her for being cruel. Ruan Yi slowly wrote down her own rules in the palm of the empress's hand.

"Touch it, one thousand taels... of gold, no bargaining allowed."

Chapter 73: Clearly marked price

Is the price of one thousand taels of gold too expensive?

After all, I only spent one night with Ning Yan and got two thousand taels of gold. Isn't this price too expensive? However, when I think of her being the most noble person in the world, with the world's largest property, the treasury of the Hua Dynasty.

Although it may be impossible to cheat people of precious resources for cultivating immortals, the national treasury is estimated to have abundant money like gold as sand, so I can cheat people of it more or less.

It would be better to hand it over to her than to be treated as sand in the national treasury. In this way, both I and she will be happy.

Even though the empress never interacted with ordinary people and was isolated from them, she knew that touching them would cost one thousand taels of gold. This pricing was really outrageous.

After Si Huang understood what Ruan Yi meant, he shook his head gently and said, "Isn't this price a bit high... Can it be cheaper?"

Si Huang held Ruan Yi in his arms with a smile on his face and gently scratched Ruan Yi's extremely soft chin with his hand.

It was as if he wanted to touch her a few more times before charging her. Ruan Yi would never allow Si Huang to take advantage of her like this.

How is this price expensive?

The empress in front of her had a wealthy family and the whole country belonged to her, but she still felt sorry for the two thousand taels of gold. When Ruan Yi saw that Si Huang disagreed with her request, she stepped hard on the palm of Si Huang's hand with her soft little paw.

Ruan Yi's current attack power all comes from the sharp claws hidden in the meat ball. Without using any strength, the claws are hidden inside the meat ball. The meat ball with a simple force-buffering effect can cause no damage at all.

It's actually very comfortable to pat people.

The sight of Ruan Yi's four short legs gently stepping on the empress's palm and fluttering around was really delightful.

"If you don't want it to be cheaper, can you give me more?"

"?" Could it be one thousand two two times?

Ruan Yi is a little confused now.

"If you can treat me gently every time, I will consider it."

Seeing the confused look on the little fox queen's face, Si Huang curled her lips. Even if she had infinite love for animals, she would not sacrifice her brains on them.

Although the last time he bargained with others was when there were other countries around to discuss where the national borders should be set, and although he was completely unfamiliar with the subject, it was definitely not something a silly little fox could handle.

Without the help of a smart system, the little fox is full of flaws.

Are you daydreaming about treating her gently?

How could he be nice to her after cruelly separating her from Qingyun? But it was not easy to see expressions on animals' faces, and the empress probably wouldn't notice if he performed a little.

It should be okay to pretend.

Moreover, he now has two tasks, one is to escape from here within a week, and the other is to extract resources from the empress.

Although one has punishment measures, the other one only rewards you based on the results you achieve and does not involve any punishment.

However, the rewards given by the system are generally difficult to replace, so if possible, the more the better.

One thousand taels of gold or something like that is already the minimum if you still want me to treat her gently.

That would require a price increase. People die for money, birds die for food, so you should squeeze out everything you can before you die.

So when he realized this, he continued to gently draw something on the empress's hand with his little claws.

When Ruan Yi was writing on the empress's palm, Si Huang could also read out the words he felt in his palm. Although the words were all very simplified and very different from the fonts currently circulated in society, he could somehow distinguish them. They were clearly words he didn't recognize, but he could convert them in his head so magically.

"If you want me to... treat you gently... I'll double the gold... I see!"

It costs money to caress, and it costs money to be treated gently.

"Ruan Yi, you little money-grubber." Si Huang now understood some of the character traits of the little fox in front of him, but if he was just greedy for money, then that would not be a problem at all.

I promised myself that after becoming my pet, the little fox would be the happiest in the world.

We must fulfill our promises. As long as the little fox is happy, everything will be fine.

"As long as you are very gentle to me, I will consider giving you two thousand taels of gold, but you must first promise to treat me gently, more gently than you treat anyone else."

If you can get gentle treatment for just one thousand taels of gold, it would be a great deal.

When Si Huanghe knew that he could buy tenderness with money, he suddenly lost his previous restraint and became lively and reckless.

No matter what I do next, as long as I pay the money, the little fox will bear it silently and even treat me gently.

This is such a great deal.

At this moment, the empress curled up a slightly sinister smile, and frantically ravaged the little fox in her palms and the other's furry tail with her hands.

Even if you had just agreed, it shouldn't be like this!

Do you really think that your money came from the wind and has been squashed countless times?

The snow-white fur that had just become smooth after taking a bath now became messy again, and even the woman's touch made its head confused.

Si Huang slowly stopped his hand, looked at the pitiful little fox in front of him and smiled, "I think you will regret your decision just now. I have plenty of money... I can completely satisfy you, but you may not be able to put down the gold later, so I will give you a storage ring for free. You can hang it next to the wooden sign."

Chapter 74: Golden House

One hand gives money, the other hand gives fur.

Ruan Yi and the empress have now formed a strange balance. Just by being touched on the head, one can get a thousand taels of gold. This is such a good business that it is a sure win.

"One thousand taels of gold, two thousand taels of gold, three thousand taels of gold... hehehe."

Ruan Yi now counts how much money is in her safe every morning. She is so happy!

Because this was the only thing that interested her and made her happy in the palace. The palace was so heavily guarded that it was impossible to find out how she could escape. Moreover, the empress would hold her in her arms whenever she had time.

She had no time alone at all, but she really didn't expect that the empress would not even blink an eye even when asked to pay.

Just one day had passed...the house was no longer able to hold all the gold.

Because there were so many gold nuggets, Ruan Yi had a rare interest in this world of immortal cultivation, which was to use the gold to build building blocks.

As for how to put the building blocks together, this reflects the advantage of being a cultivator. Using spiritual power to stick the blocks together not only makes them stick very firmly, but you can also directly take the spiritual power back when you want to take them apart.

Although she was stuck with the empress the whole day, but... when the empress was in the morning court, Ruan Yi still had some time to transform into a human form and relax.

She was always treated as an animal and probably the people around her had never noticed Ruan Yi's human appearance. Ruan Yi's appearance could be described as absolutely beautiful, but there was no one in the palace who appreciated her appearance.

Although it is easy to transform into an animal, it is the most comfortable form because there are no loose and heavy clothes.

But there is always a sense of oppression in turning into animals. It is very comfortable, but there are many inconveniences for humans to turn into animals, so they still need to turn into human form to release their stress.

“It’s really boring!”

Ruan Yi took the gold she earned and used her slender fingers to build her own little house like stacking blocks.

Ruan Yi's current state has nothing to do with elegance. She lifted the wide red and gold cuffs of her ancient-style clothing to her elbows. She felt tired because she had to move the wide cuffs every time she waved her hands. However, while stacking the blocks, Ruan Yi glanced at her white wrists...

There are quite a lot of things on her wrist. In addition to the toad sand that the system ordered for her, which represents her purity, there is also the empress's red rope wrapped around her hand with a wooden sign on it, which represents that she belongs to Si Huang. Next to the wooden sign hangs the storage ring that the empress gave her last night.

It was filled with gold squeezed from the empress, but... even with so much gold, there was no way to use it. You have to know that this was the imperial palace, not like the closed high school he attended before where he couldn't go out and there was a canteen inside the school.

But this is the imperial palace, where there is no shop for her to spend money? She has gold but no way to use it... In this situation, for the empress, the gold is just taken out of the national treasury and moved to another place.

After all, he belonged to her forever, which meant that everything she had still belonged to the empress. No wonder she agreed so quickly.

It seems that only by escaping can these things completely belong to you.

But escaping was not easy...Ruan Yi had only been to the Imperial Garden before, and the entire palace was an unknown place to her.

But today... the empress's morning court seemed to be much later than yesterday. The empress, who was supposed to come back after she finished fighting for her Golden House, now has no news.

Curious, Ruan Yi decided to continue exploring this unknown area. If today is not counted, there are only five days left.

Ruan Yi is now very depressed because she can't find any chance to escape.

He put the golden house where he would live in a while back into the storage ring, and prepared to sneak out of the empress's room and go to a wider place.

But as soon as he went out, he found the door outside the empress's room, and a maid walked in with two plates of snacks.

When the maid walked in, she saw Ruan Yi, who had just poked her head out of the room stealthily.

The two looked at each other silently for a while, and Ruan Yi blushed all of a sudden. Did she scare the maid just now? Ruan Yi recalled her behavior just now. She must think that she was a thief when she poked her head out of the room. Moreover, she had never seen the woman just now, and she probably didn't know her. Would she think she was a thief? But the thief shouldn't be as stupid as herself!

He probably just simply thought she was weird, and that was fine. He didn't need to be afraid because as long as he wasn't embarrassed or shy, then it was others who were embarrassed or shy.

"Hi~"

Although I still want to say that I just want to go out and breathe some fresh air...

But after saying it, isn't it just a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt? Just keep silent.

Ruan Yi showed a bright smile on her lips, facing the maid in front of her. Ruan Yi's charm might not be so effective on people of too high a level, but for ordinary maids, it is extremely effective.

She is wearing a beautiful robe and has a beautiful teardrop mole at the corner of her eye. She looks so seductive and bewitching.

Chapter 75: Affair

"Can you tell me what you are doing here now?"

Seeing that the woman in front of him remained silent, Ruan Yi asked in a lazy voice.

When I looked at the pastries in the maid's hands, I was a little stunned because it was not time for dessert yet and I hadn't even had lunch yet.

Why are there cakes delivered?

"…Because Lord Red Sugar asked me to convey a message. His Majesty cannot come back immediately due to some problems, so please bring some cakes to fill your stomach before lunch."

"So that's it."

I was starving because I didn't have breakfast, so I became very excited when I saw the pastries.

Ruan Yi leaned very close to the maid who was holding the pastries, and nodded to her kindly.

And to show himself, the harmless man kept smiling and stared at the maid tenderly and said, "It looks really delicious!"

But since I knew it was so late, I came.

If I had known earlier, I would have run away earlier so that I could observe more of the movements around me and the details of the palace to prepare for my future escape.

As a result, she actually wasted her time stacking blocks, but did not leave immediately when the maid came in and put down the cakes.

Because she still has a very big question now, because the pastries that Mr. Brown Sugar told her just now are for a little fox to eat.

But even after entering the house, he didn't see where the little fox that Mr. Hongtang mentioned came from. Instead, he looked at the very beautiful woman in front of him.

When I was about to put the pastries on the table and leave, my hand was gently pulled.

"I'm so bored! Can you stay here with me for a while?"

Ruan Yi gently held her hand and wanted the maid in front of her to stay here with her and get some information about the palace.

"Well... even if it's just a chat, it's fine... you'll stay here with me."

But the maid was completely frightened.
