Chapter 112: Stewing In One’s Own Juice (5)
“Xue’er, I’ll go with you,” Ye Chen said. He was worried about this crown prince.
“Grandpa, you can go back first. There’s no need to wait for us,” Leng Ruoxue said to her grandfather with a nod. Then she and the freak followed Huangfu Lian to the empress’s palace, Phoenix Rite Hall.
At the Phoenix Rite Hall.
“Imperial Mother, Miss Leng is here,” Huangfu Lian said to the beautiful middle-aged woman sitting in Phoenix Rite Hall.
“Welcome, Ruoxue.” The beautiful middle-aged woman stood up and greeted her.
“Your Majesty, we don’t seem to be so familiar?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help asking.?Is this empress trying to get close to me?
“Your mother and I were very good friends,” the empress explained with a smile. When she first saw Leng Ruoxue, she only felt that she was very beautiful and resembled an old friend. But she later found out that she really was the daughter of the old friend.
“I’ve never heard that my mother had a friend who is an empress,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly, not knowing why the empress called her here. When she was in the hall just now, the expression on the empress’s face clearly showed that she didn’t know her. But now, she was actually trying to worm her way into being close with her.
“That’s normal. Very few people know that your mother and I were friends,” the empress said nonchalantly.
“Oh, may I know why Your Majesty wanted to see Ruoxue?” Leng Ruoxue asked bluntly.
“I just want to remind you to be careful of Noble Consort Xu. She won’t let you off,” the empress said with concern on her beautiful face.
“Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. Ruoxue will be careful. If there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave.”
“Be careful on the road. I’ll ask Lian’er to send a carriage to see you off!” the empress said enthusiastically.
“There’s no need. We have a spirit beast.”
Quill, who had been lying in Leng Ruoxue’s arms, immediately flew into the air and became larger after hearing his master’s words. After Leng Ruoxue and Ye Chen sat on his back, he flew out of the imperial palace.
“Imperial Mother.”
“Where is His Majesty?”
“Imperial Father went to Huangfu Yu’s chambers,” Huangfu Lian said.
“Lian’er, let’s go take a look too!” the empress said after some thought.
…
“Your Majesty, you have to avenge Yu’er! It’s all because of that slut Leng Ruoxue! Wuuu wuuu…”
The empress and the crown prince heard Noble Consort Xu crying and talking the moment they entered Huangfu Yu’s chambers.
“Beloved Consort, everyone saw what happened just now. If we cause trouble for Leng Ruoxue because of this, people will talk and criticize us. So even if we want to take revenge, we have to have a better excuse!” Huangfu Zhen coaxed gently, but his eyes were full of impatience.
“Your Majesty is right. Even if we want to take revenge, we have to think about it carefully. How can we just take revenge like that?” the empress echoed as she walked in.
“Empress is right,” Noble Consort Xu said obediently. But the hatred in her eyes was impossible to ignore.?Leng Ruoxue, you are dead meat…
…
Leng Ruoxue and Ye Chen soon returned to the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion.
“I’m going back to my room.” Leng Ruoxue went directly into her room after saying this to the freak.
Ye Chen stood in the corridor and looked at Xue’er’s closed door gloomily.
After returning to her room, Leng Ruoxue entered the Heaven and Earth Bracelet.
“Xue’er.” Leng Ruohan hurried over when he saw his sister.
“Big Brother, don’t worry,” Leng Ruoxue comforted. She knew very well what her brother was afraid of.
“Big Brother, they are my new spirit beasts.” Leng Ruoxue changed the topic and pointed at the two sluggish little beasts who entered with her.
“Yes, Big Brother saw it.” Even though he was in the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, he could see what was happening outside.
“Master, I’m leaving for a while,” Charm suddenly said. Then he picked up the fox and the flood dragon, asked Qing Jue to find a place for them, and did what he had wanted to do in the palace.
“Big Brother, are you going out?”
“Yes. Everyone will be worried if they don’t see me return,” Leng Ruohan said.
“Then I’ll send you out.”
After sending her brother out, Leng Ruoxue returned to the Heaven and Earth Bracelet. But just as she entered, two crying little beasts jumped into her arms! Moreover, they looked, uh… quite miserable. A lot of the soft and shiny black fur on Dazzle’s body had fallen, and a lot of it was stuck together. A few scales had fallen off the body of the golden flood dragon, and there were bloodstains all over his golden body.
“Master, Charm bullied us!” Dazzle was the first to complain.?That damn stinky snow fox is actually a divine beast. Boohoo… I feel inferior. That snow fox clearly cultivated for far less time than I did, but he’s already a divine beast.?This was too much of a blow to an old fox who had cultivated alone for hundreds of years.
“Master, you have to uphold justice for the disadvantaged! You can’t let the evil forces continue to run rampant,” the proud one-horned golden flood dragon said pitifully.
A few drops of cold sweat dripped down Leng Ruoxue’s forehead.?What’s going on?! I really didn’t expect these two little beasts to be such funny fellows. Alas! It seems like my life will be very lively from now on.
“Charm.”
“Master.” Charm obediently jumped into Leng Ruoxue’s arms and lay down. His beautiful purple eyes looked triumphantly at the two complaining fellows. Today, he wanted them to know who the boss here was.
“Stay here for now!” Leng Ruoxue said to the fox and flood dragon before leaving the Heaven and Earth Bracelet with Charm and Darling in her arms.
“Master…”
…
The next day, when Leng Ruoxue entered the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, she found the two little beasts lying listlessly on the ground even though their injuries had long healed.
“What’s wrong with you two?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.
“Alas! Our master doesn’t like us,” Dazzle said without even looking up. After he stayed here for a night, his inferiority complex had already changed into an extreme inferiority complex because he discovered that his future master had many extraordinary beasts. Even that bird was a divine beast.?Boohoo… divine beast! I also want to be one…
