Rebirth - The Blood Demon Empress Chapter 76: Fox Tail
"Winter Snow sister, you said Miss is sick?" Hua Er scratched her forehead irritably, furrowed her brow and said seriously.
"Why do you think so?" Winter Snow couldn't help but let out a light laugh, she thought that Cold Zhiyue's side should have a silly maid like Huatou serving her, adding some human touch to their young master.
Hua'er pouted and pointed at the fruits that had been arranged on the fruit plate but not eaten, saying: "Fruits are meant to be eaten, aren't they? Miss likes staring at those fruits in a daze."
Although those fruits are fresh and have beautiful colors, making people want to eat them just by looking at them, and they can be bought on the street, the young lady is treating them like treasures, there must be something wrong.
"Hua'er, Miss is reluctant to eat it, it must be someone very important who gave it to her, do you need to ask?!" Xia Hua carefully placed several large and exquisite boxes on the table, stretched out her hand and gently tapped Hua'er's forehead.
In her opinion, the young master has fallen in love, but that Blood King is indeed quite skilled, and can actually move their cold and icy young master, so he can be kept for observation for now.
Using fruit to discuss with the host and make them happy is really special.
"Who sent it?" Hua'er covered her mouth, and with a cute blink of her big eyes, she continued: "Is it the Blood King? Hehe, I knew it was him."
Just because of the meticulous care that Duke Xue showed to Miss, Huā felt that he was a hundred times better than that scoundrel Zhang Xiao, and that Miss and Duke Xue were a perfect match.
"Keep your voice down, or you'll be scolded by the young lady." Xia Hua glared at Hua Er and gazed at those exceptionally beautiful fruits, saying softly: "Those fruits aren't ordinary ones, they can't be bought outside, only available on the waist of Guangwu Mountain, Blood King is really thoughtful!"
"Each type of fruit has a different effect, and the terrain there is extremely treacherous. Ordinary people can't even pick these fruits." Dongxue rarely spoke up to help, but Baili Cunyuan was someone worth observing carefully.
They are underlings and cannot interfere with their master's emotional affairs, but they can take care of things to prevent Leng Zhiyue from following in her mother's footsteps.
"Really? The Blood King is so amazing, hehe." With big pink hearts popping out of her eyes, Hua'er's admiration for Baili Chuanxun suddenly rose again.
Leng Xue'er gazed at the big and small boxes on the table, stroking her forehead and asked: "Are all the clothes done?"
"Yes, miss, would you like to try it on? The people from Jinxiu Village just sent it over. There are also accessories to match the clothes. The Blood King is really meticulous." Xiaohua's attention was all focused on the box on the table, and she didn't notice Leng Ziyue's twitching mouth corners at all.
That day, after buying clothes, Baili Chunxuan dragged her to several of the largest jewelry stores in the Imperial City to pick out accessories, saying that without suitable decorations, she couldn't show off her noble and elegant demeanor.
Is her temperament really supported by clothes and accessories?
"Miss, sit down and have a cup of hot tea." Dong Xue pulled out the summer flower that was late to react, raised a smiling face and handed a cup of fragrant chrysanthemum tea to Leng Ziyue.
"Hehe, miss, I have something to tell you, it's really great! " Xia Hua couldn't help but laugh, how could she forget that there was still a queen above her head?
Leng Xueyu raised an eyebrow, her clear voice was like the melodious sound of a zither, pleasant to hear. "What's up?"
"Princess Zijin, that old woman is dead. The notice posted says Princess Zijin died of illness after many imperial physicians' treatment failed." Xiaohua isn't a fool, how could that arrogant princess have possibly died of illness? "Miss, the imperial edict also said that coinciding with Empress Chu's birthday, Princess Zijin's funeral will not be grandly held, but rather quietly buried according to the rites of a first-rank princess."
Thinking of that princess's final outcome, she died in the end, but even though I didn't get to personally teach her a lesson, my heart still feels somewhat unfulfilled.
"The Empress Dowager ultimately chose power and personally killed her own daughter, and the relationship between her and the Emperor is probably completely severed now. It's really quite interesting." Such a result was within Leng Ziyue's expectations, yet also beyond her expectations.
At least she had thought that the Empress Dowager would put down her power and quietly be her Empress Dowager.
She had underestimated her ambition, so she had to reevaluate the strength hidden behind her.
"Miss, you're saying that the Empress Dowager killed Princess Zijin, her own biological daughter? How terrifying." Huahua's eyes widened in horror, almost letting out a scream, and she carefully asked with her hand covering her mouth.
The seemingly kind Empress Dowager was actually a deeply hidden old fox, always calculating others. The previous young lady was also calculated by her, no wonder even though the Empress Dowager loved the young lady so much, the young lady did not want to get close to her.
Instead, he was especially afraid of her.
"Dying at someone else's hands is nothing compared to being killed by the person you trust most, and that person happens to be her mother. That's the cruelest way for her." Leng Ziyue's eyes darkened, from now on she had to be extra careful around the Empress Dowager, if she could do this, then she would have no more worries.
"Miss said it's right, she deserved it." Xia Hua nodded heavily, originally thought that Zi Jing Gong Zhu was too cheap, but after hearing Leng Zhi Yue say so, suddenly felt very reasonable.
"Dongxue furrowed her brow, 'Miss, will there be a struggle between the Emperor and the Empress Dowager? The Linglong Banquet is approaching, if they were to quarrel, wouldn't Qi Yue be in danger?'"
In any case, she did not want even a country to disappear, as a country is a big home.
The country of Qi may be bad, but it is still one's own, and it is better than being a slave of a conquered nation.
Their struggle will not be highlighted now, because they are all people who know the overall situation. Even if it's Baili Chenguang, he won't choose to take revenge at this time.
Because this place is also his home.
The state of Qi has been lost, what is the use of struggling anymore?
On the contrary, she didn't have any special feelings for this country, and could survive anywhere, with the only difference being a change of location.
"That's okay." What I'm afraid of is that those people will solidify their own power and position, regardless of the lives of ordinary people. Xia Hua blinked her eyes, as for other things, it can be said later.
"Alright, put the clothes away in the closet and just find a place to store the accessories. I don't like wearing too many things on my head, it's a hassle." Leng Xueying put down her tea cup, furrowed her brow, she couldn't possibly ask her to send all these things to the Blood King's Manor, could she? "Dian Suo, what's going on?"
Hua'er heard the name "Electric Soul" and knew that Leng Ziyue had something to discuss, so she immediately stood up and said: "Miss, I'll take care of the clothes, you can talk slowly."
She can't help much either, so she just does what she can.
"Miss, Jo Niang disguised herself as a maid and left the mansion, I don't know where she's going?" Di Shuang held a long sword in his hand, and the golden mask was dazzling in the sunlight.
"Oh, since she's so capable, I'll personally go meet her." This hidden fox finally showed her tail, how could it not pique her interest.
Leng Xueyu slightly curled up her pink lips, and a hint of a sly smile flashed in her clear eyes, as if she must strip off that fox fur coat.
Luo Niangniang, Hua Niangniang, Qiao Niangniang, it seems that the latter is the most likely. Don't let her catch any wind of it, she will really make a bloodbath in the Hou Mansion.
"Dian Xiao, arrange for someone to come over and teach Hua'er some self-defense moves. Hua'er, when you're in the mansion, pay attention to the actions of those two others, be careful with your actions, do you understand?" Leng Ziyue reminded him again, not at peace, she only hoped that each and every one of them would be fine."
The young girl nodded and replied: "Don't worry, miss, I'll be careful."
She will definitely not let Leng Ziyue down, and she will also practice martial arts to become as powerful as Xia Huadong Snow.
"Understood, Miss. Are you planning to follow her yourself?" Di Gu gazed at Leng Ziyue, such a small matter wasn't worth her taking action, handing it over to any of them would be enough to complete the task perfectly.
"You all go back to Zui Ke Ju and wait for me, there's something I'll tell you when I get back." As soon as he finished speaking, he had already disappeared into the room.
Can't help but say that Murong Cang is a good master, she teaches everything she can, for fear that her kung fu is not good and will be bullied by others.
"Where is the master? I want to see him." Dressed in all pink, she looked just like a little maid, and if you didn't look closely, you really couldn't tell it was Auntie Qiao.
Her deliberately lowered voice betrayed her tension, and Aunt Qiao glanced around while speaking, checking if anyone was following her.
Leng Xue was too clever, and the means by which she had killed Leng Yinling also made her tremble with fear, her whole body going soft. The eyes and ears she had arranged around her were becoming more and more numerous, and even though she knew that this time coming out was a reckless mistake, she couldn't help but come out once.
That place in the mansion can't be stayed anymore.
If the truth of what happened back then were to be dug up, she would definitely lose her life.
"It's not for you or me to ask about the master's affairs, what exactly happened that he's so anxious to summon me out." On the edge of the street in the center of the market, a stout man with a coarse blue cloth robe sat on a simple horse-drawn carriage, his beady green eyes lecherously scanning back and forth over Madam Qiao.
This woman is old, but she's still good for a play.
"If I couldn't see the master, I wouldn't say anything. If this matter had happened and the master only knew about it afterwards, your life would be over." Qiao Yini stood up straight, she had been a concubine for Cold Ying for so many years, but she had never been looked down upon like this before, his eyes made her feel nauseous.
The fat man's face turned black, and he almost reflexively wanted to give Qiao Niang a slap in the ear. His thick palm, raised high, was about to hit Qiao Niang's cheek when it suddenly stopped. He let out a low, angry growl: "You cheap woman, get in the car!"
MD, those passersby stared at him, haven't seen a man hitting a woman before!
He really can't lay hands on a woman, especially this one in front of him.
The master had said that she was his pawn, and if she really had something important to tell the master but was delayed by him, thinking of the master's cruel means, she was terrified and restrained her own temper.
"Hurry up and take me to see the master, quickly." Aunt Qiao got on the carriage with swift movements, urging the fat man to drive away quickly.
She didn't have much time and had to hurry back to the Hou Mansion before Leng Xueyao noticed anything.
Across the street, Leng Xueyu stood with her arms around her chest, coldly staring at the carriage that was leaving the crowd, a smile deepening in the corner of her mouth. Aunt Qiao had quite impressive martial arts skills, yet she endured humiliation and let that fat man take advantage of her so much; this fox might be even more worthy of caution than the mysterious person behind her.
Things are getting more and more interesting, it's really making her look forward to it.
