The Legend of the Weaver Girl in Search of Gods
"Shut up." She seemed to have hit a sore spot in her heart.
Siyang impulsively ran out from behind the pillar and looked at Nine-tailed Fox face to face.
She shouted at her, "My sister and I are of the same mother.
Our sisterhood is deep.
We have never been separated since we were young.
Now that I am in trouble, she will not leave me alone.
It's just that … she needs to serve the king.
I am in the cold palace, so I can't take care of her. "
As if she was trying to convince herself, Si Yang nodded her head vigorously, as if she was trying to confirm it.
"Sigh." She shook her head and sighed.
Nine-tailed Fox's eyes were filled with pity, "You look so pitiful. Even now, you still haven't recognized the truth, or …" Nine-tailed Fox leaned closer to Siyang and spat at her frivolously, "… you only want to deceive yourself and others."
"Stop talking." She clenched her fists.
Siyang screamed and closed her eyes.
Her eyelashes trembled and tears fell. Her beautiful face was filled with sadness, as if Nine-tailed Fox had hit the nail on the head.
Her goal was achieved.
Nine-Tailed Fox saw that she was having a mental breakdown.
Her eyes flashed with a charming light.
Her enchanting face was filled with contentment.
She really couldn't wait. She couldn't wait to get her hands on this body, so she didn't want to wait any longer. She might as well do it herself.
"How about it? You don't want to spend the rest of your life in this cold palace. Do you want me to help you?"
"Who are you?" Siyang opened her eyes. She had regained her composure, but there was still a trace of sadness in the depths of her eyes.
"Who I am is not important. You just need to know that I can help you get out of here and regain King Zhou's favor." Nine-tailed Fox circled Siyang once. The more she looked at her, the more satisfied she became. Her smile became more sincere.
"Why do you want to help me?" Turning around, Siyang raised her chin and looked at her with suspicion and wariness in her eyes. "Even if I'm young, I understand that there's nothing in this world for free, and there's no help for no reason. What do you want? Or rather, what do you want? "
Nine-tailed Fox thought to herself that the 'body' she fancied still had some brains. She then turned around as if nothing had happened and said, "I've already said that I only wanted to help you out because you are pitiful. If you don't feel at ease, then pretend that I never came and you can continue to stay in the cold palace."
"Then you can go." Siyang stared at her back and said coldly.
"You …" Nine-Tailed Fox turned her head and pointed at Si Yang. Apparently, she did not expect that she would get such a result after laying the groundwork for so long. "You're so useless."
"I'm offering myself to the king for the sake of the people of Ji Province. Since I can't win the king's favor, at least father and Ji Province are safe. Daji doesn't want to cause any more trouble. As for my sister … that's her good fortune."
"As expected, you're useless. I thought you were a talent with potential."
Siyang was unmoved. "You appear and disappear like a ghost, but you're unwilling to tell me your name and origin. How can Daji believe you? After all … even my closest sister betrayed me. Is there anyone in this world worth trusting?"
Nine-tailed Fox was originally in a rage, but Siyang's following words made her ponder.
Looking at the sorrowful disappointment on her face, she couldn't help but smile.
How was she unwilling to help? It seemed like she was hurt too deeply.
"Fine." Nine-tailed Fox muttered to herself for a moment, then snorted, "Think about it carefully. I'm doing this for your own good. Everything is in your hands. It's up to you to decide."
"Hahaha …" After a few laughs, a gust of wind blew, causing the windows and doors to creak. The wind squinted. Siyang raised her sleeve to block it. After a while, the wind gradually stopped.
By the time he put down his hand, the nine-tailed fox in the hall had already disappeared.
"Pretending to be mysterious."
Nine-tailed Fox could come without a sound. Naturally, she could also leave without a sound. The reason she did all this was for Siyang to see. It was to show her strength so that she would trust her more.
Siyang's previous actions were only to appease Nine-tailed Fox temporarily. This fox spirit couldn't hold back and wanted to steal her body. If she resisted, it would be unwise. Now, she still had to wait for Bo Yikao to bring the things in. Therefore, it was better to fool her first and let Nine-tailed Fox think that she was moved.
Nine-tailed Fox had to be eliminated. Even if she couldn't take her life, she had to make sure that she wouldn't pester her anymore. At the same time, Siyang was also preparing to leave the palace.
It wasn't difficult to leave the palace. Ying Xiang Palace was already comparable to the Cold Palace. How many people would care if there was one less guilty concubine in the palace? As for how to leave, Siyang didn't want to rely on Bo Yikao. It was more dangerous. Ji Chang was still in Zhaoge. If he found out about her, it would be bad.
That old man almost treated Daji as an evil spirit. If he knew that his son was close to her, he would be even more furious. If Bo Yikao wanted to take her back, he would be worried that his Xiqi would be destroyed.
To be honest, Siyang really wanted to disgust him. But after thinking about it, she didn't want to suffer. It was better to be free.
When Bo Yikao entered the palace again, it was evening. The sun was about to set, reflecting the red clouds all over the sky. Looking from the lotus pond, it was so beautiful.
Siyang gave some of Daji's jewelry to the eunuch who was guarding the palace. She was allowed to stay by the lotus pond outside Ying Xiang Palace for a while. Leaning against the railing, she stood facing the lake. The breeze blew her hair and blurred the emotions in her eyes.
The sun was setting in the west, lotus flowers and leaves … Beauty. The scenery was beautiful, but the person was even more beautiful. She was as beautiful as a painting, making people reluctant to disturb her.
"You're here." Siyang heard the footsteps.
Bo Yikao came back to his senses. He lowered his eyelids to hide the admiration in his eyes. He coughed softly and said, "Bo Yikao didn't disappoint you."
Siyang looked at Bo Yikao. The young master in white stood tall and straight. His eyes were bright and clear. He was indeed worthy of being the son of a noble family. This kind of Bo Yikao was the one who moved Daji the most.
At this time, he was holding a long wooden box in his hands. The things inside were what Siyang needed.
"Your Highness, you've helped Daji a lot." Siyang took the long wooden box and reached out to support it. She smiled and said to him, "This time, Daji owes you a favor."
"Don't, don't say that." Bo Yikao hurriedly waved his hand, "Bo Yikao doesn't deserve it. Your situation is related to my Ji family. As long as I can do it, I am willing to compensate you."
Siyang knew what he meant. However, Ji Chang was stubborn. There was no need for him to vent his anger on Bo Yikao.
"Speaking of which, there is one more thing that I need Heir Apparent's help with."
"Say it." Bo Yikao agreed without thinking.
"I want you to pass on a message to my sister. I want to see her." Her sister was Clove. The two sisters entered the palace together. In the end, they met with completely different experiences.
When he heard this, Bo Yikao relaxed and smiled, "This is not a problem. I was originally your guqin teacher. I can use this as an excuse to see the other Consort Su. I will definitely pass on the message."
"Please make sure she comes to see me." Siyang urged.
Bo Yikao also repeatedly promised.
It was getting late, and the sun had finally set. The world was dark, and there were already lanterns in the distance. Bo Yikao had to leave the palace as soon as possible, and Si Yang had to return to the Palace of Fragrance. After crossing the threshold, the corner door was about to close. She hesitated for a moment and turned back.
"Bo Yikao."
The man in white who was watching her from outside paused.
Bo Yikao was stunned. He smiled, "This is the first time you called my name."
Siyang looked at him calmly.
The two of them stared at each other in silence.
"I just want to tell you that no matter what happens in the palace in the future, you should leave Zhaoge as soon as possible. Go back to your Xiqi and persuade your stubborn father."
Bo Yikao didn't know why Siyang said this to him. But these were her words. He listened carefully. After a moment, he nodded slightly, "Thank you for telling me. Bo Yikao will think about it carefully."
This time, there was no longer any reluctance. Si Yang quickly entered the inner hall, and the corner door gradually separated the two figures.
This time, it might be difficult to see each other again.
Daji was banished to the Cold Palace. In fact, she wasn't sad or scared. She had no feelings for King Zhou. Because of her shallow knowledge, she didn't have much concept of wealth and power. The only thing that made her sad was that her sister Clove didn't care about her.
They entered the palace together and swore to each other that no matter who King Zhou favored, the other couldn't ignore the other. But later, Clove broke her promise.
Since Daji was locked in Yingxiang Palace, she had never come to see her. When people in the palace bullied and insulted Daji, she had never seen her protect her sister. Not to mention coming in person, she didn't even send someone to send her a gift. No wonder Nine-tailed Fox brought this up.
