Bai Yi's face turned cold, "Mind your own business! Who do you think you are?! "
The Daoist priest swung his horsetail whisk and shouted, "Evildoer! You dare to open a pharmacy? Are you the one who caused the plague in the suburbs of the capital? "
Just like how the monk wronged Bai You without distinguishing right from wrong, now the Taoist priest casually put the plague on Bai Yi's head. Bai Yi sneered disdainfully, "If all decent people are like you, it's really shameful. I've saved people's lives and have accumulated a lot of merits. What about you? What else can you do besides wrongly accusing people? "
The Daoist priest had never been taught a lesson by a demon before. He immediately became angry, "No wonder Zhuang Yulang came to ask for help. You're deceiving people and disturbing the mortal world. You can't be forgiven. Go to hell! "
The Daoist priest attacked Bai Yi. Instead of dodging, Bai Yi grabbed his neck and asked, "What? Zhuang Yulang asked you for help? Why did he ask for help?! "
"Presumptuous!" The Daoist priest struggled to break free and threw out several talismans to attack Bai Yi again.
Although Bai Yi didn't know as many cultivation methods as Chu Xiang, she was still a great demon who had cultivated for nearly a thousand years. In a few moves, she subdued the Daoist priest again and asked him, "What did Zhuang Yulang do? Does he know I'm a demon? "
"Cough, cough, cough …" The Daoist priest couldn't breathe because his neck was choked. His face turned red and he said with difficulty, "He … begged me … to catch a demon …"
Bai Yi loosened her grip. She felt her mind go blank for a moment. Zhuang Yulang asked the Daoist priest to catch her? Why? Because he found out she was a demon? Or because … she was no longer his benefactor and was useless?
While she was distracted, the Daoist priest took out the magic weapon given by his master and hit Bai Yi. Bai Yi cried out in pain and fell from the roof. She covered her chest and lay on the ground. She coughed violently several times and quickly got up to avoid the Daoist priest's pursuit.
She calmed down and stared coldly at the Daoist priest. When the Daoist priest used a killing move, she went up and slapped the Daoist priest's head. His voice was cold. "I know you. You are the disciple of those two bastard Daoists. You rely on your cultivation to amass wealth and harm others. Today, I will teach you that there are some people you can never offend!"
As soon as Bai Yi's voice fell, a massive amount of demonic energy entered the daoist priest's body through her palm, shattering his dantian!
"Ahhh!" The daoist pitifully screamed and spat out blood. He flew out like a broken kite and slammed into a thick tree.
His cultivation had been crippled, and he was no different from an ordinary person from now on. Bai Yi didn't look at him again. She turned around and floated to the roof, blending into the night. For this kind of person who wanted to kill her, being soft-hearted was tantamount to suicide. As for Zhuang Yulang, there must be an end to it.
Chuang Yulang paced up and down anxiously. Bai Yi silently appeared beside the oil lamp and said, "Are you waiting for the news of me being captured or the news of me being killed?"
"Ah!" Zhuang Yulang screamed. He was so scared that he almost fell down. He stared at Bai Yi, who suddenly appeared beside the wall.
Bai Yi slowly walked towards him and expressionlessly asked, "You told that stinky daoist priest to capture me. Why? Did I not treat you well? Did I harm you? "
"No, no … …"
"Then why? Tell me why? " Bai Yi walked towards him step by step. Her heavy footsteps seemed to be stepping on his heart. Just like that, little by little, it was crushing his heart!
Chuang Yulang was so scared that his head was covered in cold sweat. His back was pressed against the wall, and he trembled as he moved towards the door. He stammered, "I, I didn't, I was afraid that you were stained with something dirty. Please, please help me take a look. Yes, I didn't let him capture you. I just wanted him to take a look. You, you, you … … "
"You're lying." Bai Yi looked at him and asked the last question in her mind, "So what if I was stained with something dirty? Human, demon, so what? I have always been me. I treated you well, gave you the Snow Lotus Pill, earned money to support you and your mother, took care of you, and compromised. I even voluntarily gave in when you wanted to marry someone else. Haven't I treated you well enough? You don't want me, and I've already left. Why do you still want to find someone to deal with me? Because of that pharmacy? You want to kill me and take that pharmacy to the prefectural magistrate's sister? Is that so? Is that what you think? "
Chuang Yulang was almost scared out of his wits by her questioning. He said in horror, "Human and demon are different. You've been by my side for so long. How would I know what you want to do? Demons shouldn't be here. I, I told the Taoist priest that it's my duty … … "
"I, I'm good enough to you. Can't I treat you well? I've never harmed you. "
"Those who are not of my race must have different intentions! Demons are best at confusing people. You, if you don't want anything, why are you so good to me? Why do you want to stay in my house and marry me? " Chuang Yulang thought that they almost got married and felt uncomfortable. If the person sleeping next to him was a fox, then what would he be? What would his children be in the future?
Bai Yi looked at his ashen face, and her heart seemed to bleed. This was the benefactor she was extremely grateful to. This was the man she loved deeply. Even if she was sad, she was willing to give him her blessings. Why did he treat her like this? The Taoist priest's magic weapon was not an ordinary thing. When it hit her, it hurt her a lot. But now, what hurt her the most was not the place where she was hit, but her heart.
Bai Yi stared at Chuang Yulang. After a long time, she shook her head and slowly stepped back. "I was wrong. From the beginning, I should have listened to my sister and stayed away from you." She smiled weakly. "I'm good to you because you saved my life. I want to marry you because I really love you. I want to be good to you for the rest of my life and fulfill all your wishes. Now, it seems that I was thinking too much. The Snow Lotus Pill and the care you gave me these days are my gratitude. Today, you found someone to hurt me, so we're even. "
Bai Yi's eyes were moist. With difficulty, she said, "Chuang Yulang, from now on, between you and me … … Break. Friendship."
Bai Yi's figure gradually blurred, and then disappeared from the room like smoke. The two foxes in the room immediately jumped out of the window. Before they left, they glanced back at Chuang Yulang. That disdainful look was full of contempt for Chuang Yulang.
Chuang Yulang looked at this scene and suddenly felt that he had done something wrong. It was as if he had lost a very important person, and his heart was empty. But he was really afraid. That was a demon. Who knew if she would eat him when she was unhappy? It was terrible.
He fell to the ground and gasped for breath. Thinking back to Bai Yi's words, he was sure that Bai Yi wanted to break all ties and go their separate ways. She had no intention of retaliating against him. He breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little relieved. He carefully thought about Bai Yi's life-saving grace. After thinking about it, only the two foxes he saved in the mountains were the most likely. He was just on a whim. He didn't expect to provoke a fox spirit. He didn't know whether it was good or bad.
But now that the fox spirit was gone, he also took the third place in the exam, and Miss Jiang wanted to marry him. It should be a good thing, right? It was a good thing to get the fox spirit's gratitude. As long as the fox spirit didn't come to him in the future, he would be able to live a stable life.
Bai Yi kept flying on the roof and quickly left the capital to find Chu Xiang. Chu Xiang opened the door and saw her tearful face.
"What's the matter?"
Bai Yi Ping, in Chu Xiang's arms, finally cried, "It's too painful … Sister, those seniors are all true. No injury can be compared with the pain in the heart."
Chu Xiang patted her on the back and took her into the room.
"No matter how painful the injury is, it can be healed. So what if it hurts?" Chu Xiang picked up the handkerchief and wiped her tears. "There will always be a person who will make you laugh, make you angry, make you feel so painful that you don't want to be hurt. But in the end, everything will pass. All the injuries can be healed. There is nothing to be afraid of. There are still things that can make us happy."
"Really? Can it really get better? I feel … I'm out of control. I can't control the pain … "
Chu Xiang held her hand and said with a convincing voice, "Believe me, let it hurt. It will get better sooner or later."
Bai Yi finally stabilized herself by Chu Xiang's side. She didn't drown in pain. She looked at Chu Xiang with tears flowing down her face. "Will you also? Will you also meet someone who makes you sad? Will you also feel pain? "
Without waiting for Chu Xiang to answer, she shook her head and smiled bitterly. "You won't. You have Li Yufeng. He treats you well. He can't wait to bring the best of the world to you. You won't feel pain. "
Of course Chu Xiang would feel pain. Everyone had their first awakening of love and a time of sadness and pain. She just forgot. It was too far away. It was so far away that she couldn't remember. But she knew that she was also in pain like Bai Yi. She gave everything wholeheartedly. Of course, she would feel pain. So now, she would always love herself the most. This way, she could always be free and unfettered. The world was so big. If one didn't love themselves enough, how could they have enough strength to enjoy the good things? If everyone loved themselves enough, it would be easier for them to be happy when they met someone who was compatible with them.
Chu Xiang touched Bai Yi's head and smiled. "Maybe I experienced it in my previous life, so I know how to choose people in this life. Be good. If you want to cry, cry. When you've cried enough, remember to heal yourself. There are too many people and things in this world that you haven't seen before. This injury is not a big deal. Don't you want to see the world? "
"I want to." Bai Yi thought about Chu Xiang's words. There were too many things in this world that she hadn't seen before. She really wanted to see them. Being sad for Zhuang Yulang didn't seem to be a hurdle that couldn't be crossed.
She realized that Chu Xiang always had the ability to downplay very painful things. It was as if there was nothing in this world that could make her change her expression and feel pain that pierced her heart. Perhaps because of this, Chu Xiang always enjoyed life so much and was always happy.
Bai Yi held Chu Xiang's hand tightly, as if she could draw strength from her. Her heart gradually calmed down, and she said seriously to Chu Xiang: "I will heal myself well, and I will become as powerful as my sister."
Chu Xiang smiled at her. This girl had grown up. Breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly always had to experience pain. Fortunately, Zhuang Yulang didn't only give her pain, but also a life-saving grace and growth in the process. She adapted to human life, liked to do good deeds and save people, learned to open a shop for disaster relief, and understood a lot of things.
In fact, it was Bai Yi who had profited. Compared with this, what was the pain and loss?
Bai Yi felt very safe beside Chu Xiang. She thought that she would feel uncomfortable and couldn't sleep, or cry all the time, but in fact, in just an hour, she fell asleep beside Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang found the injuries on her body. These injuries were not light. If she had a Snow Lotus Pill, she would be fine after taking it. If she didn't have the Snow Lotus Pill, she would have to use other medicines to recuperate. The Snow Lotus Pills that Chu Xiang and Li Yufeng gave her last month were still there. However, this girl had grown up through hard work. She couldn't let others take care of everything. She had to pay the price to learn her lesson.
That Snow Lotus Pill was given to Zhuang Yulang by Bai Yi, so she had to bear the consequences herself. She had to slowly recover and remember this lesson.
However, daring to hurt Chu Xiang's little sister was unforgivable!
Chu Xiang narrowed her eyes and got up to enter the capital.
Li Yufeng was busy until late at night. There were countless things that he had to arrange in the open and in the dark. Prince Qi's faction constantly made things difficult for him. He had to deal with endless schemes. Even though he had many people he could use, he was still so busy that he didn't have time to see Chu Xiang for several days. This made him a little annoyed.
A fragrant wind blew and he sensed Chu Xiang's aura. The corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise as he said, "This prince wants to rest. You can all withdraw. Without this prince's order, you are not to disturb me."
"Yes, prince."
The palace servants serving by the side withdrew. Li Yufeng immediately stood up and walked towards Chu Xiang's hiding place, "Xiang 'er, why are you here? Did you miss me? "
Chu Xiang appeared and laughed, "How can your face be so thick?"
"If my face isn't thick, how can I please you?" Li Yufeng pulled Chu Xiang to sit on the soft couch. He leaned over and hugged her. He closed his eyes and leaned against her neck. "I missed you so much. I used to be with you every day. Ever since the exam, we separated. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to the capital."
Chu Xiang turned her head and kissed him, "I knew you missed me. Didn't I come to find you?"
Li Yufeng chuckled, "Don't try to scare me. Do you think I don't know you? I'm the only one who came to find you. Right, what's the matter? If there's nothing, you wouldn't come here so late at night. "
It was rare for Chu Xiang to reflect on herself. Did she neglect her husband? In fact, it wasn't bad to give him a romantic surprise once in a while. With a husband who doted on her so much, she had to dote on him too.
She pulled Li Yufeng onto the soft couch and hugged him with a smile. She raised her eyebrows and said, "No matter what, I'm here. The night is long. Don't you want to do something? "
Li Yufeng's eyes darkened. He lowered his head and kissed the red lips that he yearned for day and night. He untied his belt.
Chief Steward Li coughed twice outside the door and waved his hand to tell the palace servants to stand further away. Then he told his disciple to guard the door and went to the Emperor's side. He knew a secret that no one else knew. The wife of Unfettered King was a fox yao.
Before, he had wondered if Unfettered King was deceiving people. Now it seemed that it was a fox yao. He didn't even know when Wang Fei had come. It was Wang Fei's first time entering the palace. He had to report to the Emperor. The future would change greatly. The next Empress might not even be human. Fortunately, he had experienced many things in his life. Otherwise, wouldn't his legs be weak from fright right now?
When it was dawn, Chu Xiang laid in Li Yufeng's arms and explained her purpose for coming.
"Those two Daoists with high cultivations have already submitted to King Qi. Today, their disciple was crippled by Bai Yi. They will definitely find trouble. There are not many people who know that Bai Yi is my sister. They will find out in a few days. At that time, my identity as a fox yao won't be able to be hidden. You have to make arrangements early. Also, I don't like that Daoist temple. Do they still make water for your Father Emperor? Are there any more pills? Let me see. "
"I will send someone to ask. You go bathe first. Later, I will ask the imperial kitchen to make some delicious food for you to try." Li Yufeng picked up his clothes and got up to put them on. He turned around and asked Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang supported her head and smiled, "What are you doing? Are you afraid that I will leave now? I will accompany you to eat breakfast before going back. What is there to be in such a hurry? Go quickly. "
"Okay." Li Yufeng smiled. He lowered his head and kissed her. Then he walked out with light steps.
Chu Xiang comfortably soaked in a flower petal bath. The palace maids who came in and out to serve her lowered their eyes and looked straight ahead. They did not look or ask too much. It was obvious that they had been carefully selected by Chief Steward Li and had been instructed. Chu Xiang listened to Li Yufeng's explanation of the situation in the palace. She was very satisfied with this clever Chief Steward Li. It saved her a lot of trouble.
The emperor had a habit of taking pills for several years. Li Yufeng was not good at pills, so he didn't find any problems before. After Chu Xiang took the pill and tried it, she was very certain, "This pill has a harmful drug added to it. It is not obvious, but if it is taken for a long time, it will cause a person's energy to be low and their organs to be damaged. Unknowingly, the body's foundation will be damaged."
When Chu Xiang said this, Chief Steward Li was waiting on the side. Hearing this, he raised his head in disbelief, "Princess Consort, you, are you telling the truth? This pill, this pill is what the imperial concubine persuaded the emperor to take! "
Li Yufeng's expression was a bit ugly. He picked up the pill and said with a frown, "Xiang 'er, it must be true. I never thought that they would be so bold. Before, I had no interest in the throne and didn't even return to the capital. Second Prince was the next emperor. What were they thinking? They actually tried to assassinate imperial father. Can't they wait? "
"If the throne is not in one's hands, one will never be able to feel at ease. Ambitious people naturally want to ascend the throne as soon as possible. Or perhaps, ambitious families also want to quickly reap the benefits." Chu Xiang drank her hot tea and said lightly.
Li Yufeng looked at Chu Xiang, "Xiang 'er …"
Chu Xiang pulled him up and said with a smile, "Let's go and see your imperial father. Seeing that he is good to you, I will recognize him as a family member. "
Li Yufeng smiled and held her hand, bringing her to the emperor's palace. Chief Steward Li was very surprised. In his impression, the seductresses should be coquettish, but this princess was more like a matriarch than a matriarch. She was so decent that she could be a matriarch. This was something he never expected.
Chief Steward Li quickly arranged a carriage to prevent unreliable palace servants from seeing Chu Xiang. Chu Xiang should have been in town. If she mysteriously appeared in the palace, it would be hard to explain.
The emperor only left a few trustworthy palace servants in the palace. When he saw Chu Xiang, he first thought that her appearance was the fate of many men. He didn't know if his son had taken a liking to her appearance.
The emperor coughed twice and hesitated, not knowing what to order first. This was not an ordinary girl. She was a thousand year old fox demon and a fox demon that didn't give his son a status. What should he order?
Before he could speak, Chu Xiang had already walked closer to him. She even turned back and smiled at Li Yufeng, "So you look like this when you're old. You really look like your imperial father."
Li Yufeng was used to her strange focus and laughed, "I'm not like this. You forgot, I have the art of retaining my appearance."
Chu Xiang nodded, "En, that's right. You're still so handsome after a hundred years."
The emperor was stunned. He couldn't believe that someone would discuss this in front of him in his lifetime. Was he very old? He maintained himself well. How was he old? What did the art of retaining his appearance mean? Was his son disgusted with his appearance? And was his future daughter-in-law expressing that she was satisfied with his son's face?
Was his son really a wife who relied on his face to please? Should he be glad that his son was so handsome?
Li Yufeng helped the emperor to lean on the soft pillow and asked, "Imperial father, what are you thinking?"
"Cough, nothing." The emperor touched his face without leaving a trace and smiled at Chu Xiang, "You're Chu Xiang, right? These days, Yufeng often mentioned you. You're kind and benevolent. How are the villagers in town? Is the epidemic getting better? "
"They're fine. They'll be fine after a few days." Chu Xiang gestured for him to extend his wrist and checked his pulse, "Yufeng likes to praise me. Actually, I'm not that kind. It's nothing to do. If I have to do something, I won't be willing to do it. "
The emperor understood her meaning. This was normal. How could a thousand year old fox demon casually accept the rules and restrictions? She would definitely do whatever she wanted to do. He was more concerned about his people and asked, "Are you skilled in medicine? Throughout history, epidemics have always been a disaster. Now that I have the heart but not the strength, I've handed this matter to Yufeng. If there's a good outcome, it'll be a great achievement. "
Chu Xiang nodded. "This plague seems to have something to do with me. Of course, I won't let them die." She glanced at the emperor. There were no outsiders here. She straightened up, "Epidemics are difficult for ordinary people. But to me, it's not a big deal. Don't worry, no one will die."
"Oh, good. Then I'm relieved." The emperor had never seen a demon save people like this. He did not know how capable Chu Xiang was. However, Chu Xiang's words were very convincing, so he really couldn't raise any doubts in his heart. He thought for a while and asked, "Yufeng, did your sister go to the south to control the flood?"
"She's back. She'll go in two days. But there's a snake demon leading other demons to help with the disaster relief. Snake demons are much better than us fox demons at controlling the flood. It won't be too serious. "
"Oh, oh …" The emperor had been an emperor his whole life. He had never seen such disaster relief. A snake demon leading a group of demons??? So the flood would be blocked by the snake demon??? Would this work?
He looked at Li Yufeng. Li Yufeng said, "Imperial Father, don't worry about this. Xiang 'er sent demons to the disaster relief. This son also sent many people and allocated funds. With both sides working together, it won't be too serious. You should pay more attention to your own body. How dare you eat anything? "
"I didn't know there would be a problem with the pills." The emperor frowned. He wanted to scold the noblewoman and Prince Qi. But he looked at Chu Xiang and shut his mouth. He decided to maintain a good image in front of his future eldest daughter-in-law. He did not want to drag his son down. Who knew if his daughter-in-law would find him annoying.
Chu Xiang carefully checked his pulse. She wrote a prescription and handed it to Chief Steward Li, "Boil the medicine for Your Majesty according to the prescription. Once in the morning and once in the evening. Your spirit will be better and your body will feel more comfortable. But the pills have been used for a few years. There's nothing I can do about your lifespan. "
The emperor patted Li Yufeng's hand and smiled, "It's okay. As long as your body feels comfortable, don't force your lifespan. I'm satisfied as long as I see you well. "
