All I know is that after Empress Wen returned from the neighboring mansion that day, she was completely relieved. It seemed that she had confirmed that Chu Wuji and the imperial princess did not get along, and there was no need to worry about it anymore.
"Wu Ji, it's not good to visit empty-handed. At least pick up a few fruits and I'll help you clean them up!" Princess Jing'an said as she went to take care of the matter.
After the fox cubs transformed, they would go to the forest to pick some seasonal spiritual fruits when they had nothing to do. This should be considered an act of gratitude, right? Taking two of them would be a proper gesture, so it wouldn't be a breach of etiquette.
Xiaotu took out a small canine tooth from his pocket and said:
"You have to pay for a big feast. Xiaotu will give you this!"
Madam Jiang coaxed, "I'm not going to a banquet. I'm just going to visit and say hello. I'll be back soon. I'll keep my baby tooth and give it to Yao'er as a pendant to ward off evil spirits."
"That's fine." Xiaotu then retracted her baby teeth.
Princess Jing'an wanted to arrange for servants to prepare the carriage, but Chu Wuji stopped her and shook his head to indicate that it was not necessary.
As soon as he thought about it, a wind suddenly blew in the palace courtyard. The wind was strong, but it did not make the women feel embarrassed. Their hair only swayed slightly.
Then, the group was blown high into the sky by the wind, avoiding the sight of the people around them, and slowly descended into the princess's mansion as if riding an invisible waterfall slide.
Although there was no bumpy ride at all, it was too sudden. The princess was so frightened that she hugged Chu Wuzhi's arm tightly and only came to her senses after landing safely.
"This is truly 'soaring up and taking advantage of the wind'. It just blows up as soon as it is said!" The elegant and intellectual young princess could not help but exclaim in amazement, her beautiful eyes sparkling with a strange light.
I could actually experience the passages that I had only seen in books!
Auntie Qingshe said bubblingly: "Wuji, do you even need to use the magic formula for this magical power?"
The Sky Fox Goddess smiled and said, "The Qiongqi demon pill has been refined into the young master's soul. It has almost become an innate talent. Why does he need to use magic formulas to perform it?"
However, this ability also has its inconveniences. Chu Wuji's control is not very good. He didn't pay attention just now and actually blew the maid from the palace over with him.
The arrival of the group was quickly noticed by the guards and maids in the princess's mansion.
When they saw the way he appeared, they knew that the rumors were true. This was indeed a god who was not under the control of the immortals and could appear at any time.
Chu Wuji remained polite and said, "I just returned to Lihuo Capital and learned about this matter hastily. Can you take me to see your master?"
After the maid paid her respects, she quickly led Chu Wuzhi to the inner courtyard.
The mansion was deserted, with not many people living there. It was hard to tell that there were any new people moving in, and there weren't many signs of life left.
Chu Wuji and his group entered the room and saw the true appearance of the Princess of Tianji Kingdom.
——A girl about fifteen years old, holding a medical book in her hand, looked inevitably nervous when she saw the arrival of strangers such as Chu Wuzhi.
Her manners and temperament reflect the upbringing of a royal family. Her demeanor is graceful and elegant, which matches the courage that a princess should have. However, her upbringing is superficial and her temperament is internal. This girl is not born with a strong character, but rather a gentle one.
There is no doubt that she is a beauty, but there is still a little baby fat on her cheeks, and she still looks childish, similar to Yaoer.
After seeing her, Princess Jing'an began to understand why Empress Wen was not worried. Most people who were close to Wu Ji were mature women, and it was unlikely that he would marry this little girl.
"No wonder Queen Wen always teased Yao'er when she came back that day..." She thought helplessly.
Chu Wuji put down the basket of fruit, and then came to the front of the little princess, sat down cross-legged, and his body posture was relaxed and natural.
"I am Chu Wuji. What's your name for the person who caused you to be 'exiled' abroad?"
"Master, you can call me Huai Wan... The marriage has nothing to do with Master Chu. It was decided after discussion among the royal family."
The young princess looked childish, but her tone of voice was precociously steady, peaceful and gentle, as if she had clearly realized the helplessness of her own fate and accepted the status quo without regrets.
"What a precocious girl! She can still have such a mentality even though she is alone in a foreign country." Bai Sujin said softly.
"I think this little girl is pretending to be mature, and she will be exposed if she is scared~" Aunt Green Snake has bad intentions.
The princess and the queen were also whispering to each other.
Chu Wuji inexplicably felt like he was being watched on a blind date, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He looked around and asked doubtfully:
"Huaiwan, are you the only one here? No one is accompanying you?"
The princess was indeed worried before, fearing that Chu Wuji was a kind-hearted immortal, which was why the clan members were so wary of him. Now that she had actually come into contact with him, the girl felt at ease.
He has a handsome appearance and his speech is normal and calm. I don't know why the clan members are so wary of him.
"My elders had plans to come, but I was escorted here urgently. We haven't even decided who will come yet. Besides, Wan'er is already at an age where she can stand on her own two feet. She shouldn't be relying on her elders for everything."
Judging from these words, the little princess is indeed much more mature when compared with Yao'er.
But the black-hearted Queen Aunt did not use this to find fault with Yao'er, because as the elders, they liked Yao'er's innocence and were afraid that she would learn some vulgar and calculating thoughts.
Moreover, this little princess is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed. What she said about "the elders haven't discussed who will come yet" is clearly that the elders are shirking responsibility and don't want to take the risk, so she can only come here alone.
Chu Wuji didn't say too much and directly expressed his purpose:
"I won't agree to the marriage, it's just nonsense. Huaiwan, don't worry. When I go to Tianji Country later, I will send you home. Just think of this as a study tour here.
If you have any questions, please go to Prince Jing'an's Mansion and tell him."
The little princess was stunned. She obviously didn't expect Chu Wuji to say that. The girl's face became serious. She shook her head with determination and said:
"Even if Immortal Master Chu doesn't agree to this abrupt marriage proposal, Wan'er won't go back. I'm responsible for the safety of the people of Tianji Country. Only if I stay here can there be more trust between the two countries and avoid unexpected conflicts..."
The corner of Chu Wuji's mouth twitched. He rarely dealt with girls with this kind of temperament. He sighed and said,
"A little girl like you is actually taking on the responsibility of safety?"
"Being young doesn't mean I don't have responsibilities. I have this opportunity to help maintain the peace of Tianji Country, and I will do my best to do so!" The girl's face was very serious, without any empty boasting.
Aunt Qing Snake was impressed and worried, "Has he been brainwashed by the elders of the Tianji Kingdom, or has he been given a drug that makes him mad?"
Bai Sujin gently scolded: "This is the girl's sense of responsibility to the country, please don't make fun of it."
Chu Wuji didn't want to talk too much about reasoning. His attitude had already been explained, so he said:
"Don't be so fearless. Just have fun here. If you want to go back, leave on your own. I'll explain to the Holy Queen of Lihuo... Prince Jing'an's Mansion is bustling, you can go for a stroll. Forget it, why not just take you there to show you the way."
He lifted up the princess with one hand. Wen Yaoer immediately became alert and stared at the princess Huaiwan vigilantly.
Chu Wuji called a maid here, and soared up again, returning to the palace.
The princess lost her composure for a moment, her face full of surprise. Before she could come to her senses, she was carried by Chu Wuji to the inner courtyard of the female relatives. She visited the corner where the cat lived and saw the mother and daughter with fox ears and fox tail walking nearby.
I heard before that Jing'an Palace is known as the "Immortal" Palace, and it really is true!
Princess Jing'an came to Chu Wuji and said:
"Wuji, you go and rest. I'll stay with Miss Diji. I just saw her reading some medical books. Maybe we can have a chat."
Chu Wuji thought this was fine and nodded.
"Thank you for your hard work, Princess."
He held Yao'er in his arms and returned to the room with the other female relatives.
Yao'er pressed her little face against Chu Wuji's chest and asked in a delicate voice, "Brother, you won't agree to a marriage, will you?"
"That's definitely not the case. Brother still has a lot of things to do. How can he have the leisure to care about the affairs of Tianji Kingdom?"
"That's right!" Wen Yaoer finally felt relieved.
"You can also keep the girl company and chat with her later."
Wen Yaoer found it difficult to agree to Chu Wuji's proposal. What if the princess of Tianji Kingdom used her relationship to get close to her brother?
Queen Wen knew how to deal with this little girl. She gave Chu Wuji a look and said:
"Yao'er, aren't you worried that if Mother spends more time with her, she'll stop doting on you? Why don't we go and listen to what they're talking about?"
"If mother doesn't favor me, brother will!" Wen Yao'er said stubbornly. She was curious about what they were talking about over there, so she immediately followed her aunt the Queen to spy on the "enemy situation."
Chu Wuji lay down on the cushion and said with a worried look:
"This is most likely the work of the Kunlun Saintess and that High Priest. Next time, I'll take her to Kunlun Ruins for a 'return or exchange.' If the Saintess has the guts to do it herself, why would she let a little girl leave her homeland?"
The strangeness of Kunlun Ruins is indeed well-deserved. He just went there once and left safely. The saint still did this to him. She was probably reminding him to remember to go to Kunlun Ruins!
......
After a long time, Princess Jing'an brought Yao'er back.
"Princess, has the little girl gone back?" Chu Wuzhi stood up and pinched Yao'er's little hand.
Princess Jing'an seemed to be making friends with the little princess, but in fact she was also trying to find out the true reaction of the Tianji Kingdom. Although the little princess was precocious, she was still inexperienced in the world and was never as good as the mature princess, so she said a lot during the conversation.
"The child has gone back, and I've almost finished asking questions. For some reason, the Tianji Nation has suddenly started treating you, Wuji, as a scourge and a monster. They're extremely wary of you, saying that even the immortals can't control you. That's why the clan members have resorted to this desperate measure.
This little girl, Diji, is indeed not a bad person, and doesn't have many scheming minds."
"..."
It's really fun, but it's a good thing it's like this.
After Chu Wuji dealt with this incident, he didn't spend any more time on it afterwards. He just thought of it as a new maid guest in Prince Jing'an's Mansion.
If Yao'er can make friends with the little princess, then the two of them will have more companions. If they can't get along, there's no need to force it.
The Heavenly Fox Goddess quietly moved from Madam Jiang to Queen Wen, which seemed to be a hint from the Heavenly Fox Goddess.
It is not convenient to do anything out of line with Madam Jiang, but it is unscrupulous when it comes to the Queen and the Princess.
It just so happened that Chu Wuji also wanted to chat with the Sky Fox Queen.
Chapter 386 Aunt Seeking Death
At night, it is quiet and peaceful.
The courtyard in the palace was well maintained, but I could still hear the croaking of frogs in the pond, and I didn't know where they came from.
The rhythmic chirping of cicadas rises and falls, and it sounds noisy at first, but then it gives you a sense of ethereality.
If it weren't for these movements, Chu Wuji's understanding of the seasons would still be stuck in the year-round ice and snow at Kunlun Ruins, which was a bit confusing.
Chu Wuji is now back in Prince Jing'an's Mansion, and he can sleep soundly. No matter which female relative's boudoir it is, as long as Chu Wuji lies on her bed, he will feel a strong sense of relaxation.
But maybe tonight is an exception.
"What are you two doing here? Can't you just stay in the old house?" The Fox Goddess said gloomily, and she was very disgusted with the appearance of the White Snake and the Green Snake.
After borrowing the beautiful body of Queen Wen, Lady Fox had already started chatting with Chu Wuji to create an atmosphere, but the White Snake and the Green Snake suddenly appeared, ruining the mood!
Aunt Green Snake argued with reason, having learned from her sister White Snake the skill of digging up old scores, and said:
"Let's talk about this logically. After coming back last time, Wuji spent the night with you at the palace. This time when he returns from going out, shouldn't he go back to the old house first?
Even if you don't go back to the old house, you have to stay with us!"
My aunt always has a self-righteous attitude when she is not right. Now that she is right, her arrogance is even more powerful.
Bai Sujin said nothing, but silently changed back into human form and hugged Chu Wuji.
No matter what Tianhu's reasons are, he could not give in on the issue of his son. No matter how important the matter was, he would have to wait until he had spent time with the elders of his family tonight and could talk about it slowly tomorrow.
The clothes of the Fox Goddess were half undressed, her outer skirt was still on, but her bodice was loosened. She turned over, and the soft snow ball in her arms flowed out softly like a spring of condensed fat, and softly stuck to Chu Wuji's arm, so plump and soft!
The fox girl showed a provocative smile:
"It's not that I want to keep the young master overnight. It's obvious that he wants to talk to me, right?"
Chu Wuji was ashamed and could not deny it openly.
This Fox Goddess was really cunning. She was too lazy to fight with the White Snake and the Green Snake, so she just threw the problem onto him.
Moreover, during the day, it was Queen Fox who ran to Queen Wen first to hint at it, so he naturally "took the initiative" to run to her. Now, all the troubles have fallen on him.
Chu Wuji was forced to resort to the strategy of diverting firepower. He looked at his aunt expressionlessly.
Aunt Green Snake retreated after just one attack. Seeing that Lady Sky Fox did not settle the score with her, she lost interest and began to secretly move Chu Wuji's pulse.
She used her own aura to conceal the existence of a magical little green snake, and controlled the little snake with her mind, which crawled into Chu Wuji's clothes and quietly wrapped around the strong veins.
The little snake's body sometimes tightened and sometimes relaxed, seemingly playing with its prey, but in fact, the aunt was maliciously simulating the rhythm of lovemaking.
When their eyes met, Aunt Green Snake hid a smirk and mouthed:
"When my sister and the vixen start arguing, I'll strangle you into submission and see how they'll react when they suddenly smell your scent~"
......You are truly my conscientious aunt who deserves to be struck by lightning!
It’s bad enough that Goddess Sky Fox threw trouble at me, but now even you, my aunt, have bad intentions and can’t stand seeing me being too comfortable.
Chu Wuji felt a little sad and a little happy. He had just been feeling guilty about his plan, but now that he saw his aunt playing such a prank, he no longer felt guilty!
