The next time Li Muge saw her rooster husband was at the dinner table.

"Is it good?" The Regent specially picked up a piece of chicken and placed it in Li Muge's bowl.

“You… have gone too far.” After Li Muge finished speaking, the Regent curled his lips in disdain.

He was waiting for Li Muge to lash out at him.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Li Muge picked up a few more pieces of chicken and put them in his bowl, then began to eat with gusto.

"Didn't you say this chicken is your husband? I see you're enjoying it quite a bit." The Regent sat opposite Li Muge, his lips twitching.

"What's wrong with that? As my nanny said, a husband should treat his wife well for the rest of his life. Similarly, if his wife is hungry, what's wrong with her eating a piece of meat?"

"Your reasoning is quite interesting." Regent Yun Qi narrowed his long, narrow eyes as he sized up Li Muge.

The people are all talking about it.

This princess of Dongluo Kingdom was extremely obsessed with Taoist arts and dreamed of becoming an immortal.

After what happened last night, Regent Yunqi became somewhat more convinced that this woman possessed Taoist magic.

"Li Muge, is it? Who did you learn your Taoist skills from?" Yun Qi placed his chopsticks on the rim of the bowl, crossed his hands, and exuded an invisible pressure.

"I learned it by reading books myself. What about you, Regent? You can't learn such a simple Taoist technique by reading books, can you? You're really stupid."

As soon as Li Muge finished speaking, she reached out to tear the chicken leg off, but Yun Qi swiftly slapped her hand with chopsticks.

"What are you doing? This is my rooster's meat. You ate it, which made me a widow, and now you're hitting me too."

Tears welled up in Li Muge's eyes as she glared at Yun Qi with a fierce expression, as if he were an utterly wicked person.

Yun Qi awkwardly touched his nose.

"Sorry, I'm a bit of a germaphobe. I can't stand seeing you tearing off chicken legs at the dinner table without washing your hands."

"Oh, then I'll go wash my hands."

Li Muge jumped off the stool and walked to the backyard of the Regent's Palace, where the ruby ​​bracelet on her wrist gleamed.

There were ghosts and monsters around, so Li Muge blocked the light from the gemstone and followed his senses.

We walked until we reached a grove of trees.

Li Muge was startled by what she saw. There was an open space in front of her, with about twenty or thirty trees in sight.

They were all withered and dead.

A strange, operatic voice rang in Li Muge's ears.

"Who is it?" Li Muge pressed her ear.

The withered forest before her seemed to be a whirlpool drawing her in.

Curiosity killed the cat.

Li Muge lowered her eyes; she had always understood this principle.

What's more, she didn't bring her compass or peach wood sword today, so she turned around and left without hesitation.

The opera music abruptly stopped.

Clearly, the opera singers hadn't expected that this was obviously a trap, yet the woman didn't fall for it.

Li Muge wore a light blue fitted pleated fan skirt, and her hair was styled in a simple high bun.

The opera music grew louder and louder, the mournful cries causing a headache, and Li Muge covered her ears.

He turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, a tightness gripped my waist, and the next second I was sucked directly into the forest.

Li Muge's pupils contracted.

Suddenly, he slashed open his palm, using his blood as a catalyst to break the demon's spell.

"You audacious fiend! If you're going to perform, then perform. Why are you dragging me, the princess, into this? That's incredibly rude."

Li Muge fell to the ground and carefully patted the dust off her clothes. This was the most beautiful dress she had ever worn since she was a child.

Since my mother died.

She was naturally a bit slow to react in her interactions with others, which made her increasingly disliked by her father.

Li Muge didn't care.

The book says that the path to immortality requires severing all seven emotions and six desires.

"Save me, please save me, I can't breathe, save me."

"Save me, I am in this ground beneath your feet, save me."

In the withered forest, a terrifying female voice echoed incessantly. Cold sweat broke out on Li Muge's forehead. The next second, a hand suddenly emerged from the ground and pulled her underground.

"No."

Li Muge was startled and suddenly opened her eyes. She sat up in a panic, only to find herself back in the bridal chamber.

"Could it be a dream?" After Li Muge finished speaking, her eyes flickered, and she remembered the ghostly hands that had gripped her ankle. She suddenly pulled up her trouser leg.

Sure enough, there was a bluish clenched mark on her ankle.

Li Muge stepped onto the ground barefoot.

"Princess, why are you getting out of bed? Don't catch a cold, you've been unconscious for two days."

A chubby girl ran over. Although she was a little chubby, she had two dimples when she smiled, making her look very cute.

Li Muge was stunned.

The chubby girl thought the princess was upset because she didn't call her "Princess Consort." She lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, it was the Regent who instructed us to call you Princess."

"It's alright, it's alright, there's nothing to apologize for. Anyway, I've never treated him like my husband."

Li Muge walked with a limp, but he managed to boil some talisman water for himself to drink, which made him feel better.

The regent was cruel and tyrannical, so it was normal for him to have a few wronged souls. Li Muge originally didn't want to get involved.

But every night...

Li Muge kept repeating the feeling of being squeezed into the mud by the ghost, and even when he woke up, he felt like his mouth was full of dirt.

It was time for the bride to return to her parents' home.

The old woman came to remind her, but Li Muge had no intention of going back at all. She would rather spend that time reading more Taoist books.

The Tao is profound and extensive.

Li Muge lay on the table, supporting her chin with her hand. When would she finally achieve enlightenment?

Once you become an immortal, you can live a carefree life.

If all immortals were like her, then no one would call her a fool anymore.

After finishing a Taoist book, Li Muge was feeling drowsy and wanted to fall asleep, but unexpectedly, he was pulled up the next moment.

"What are you doing? This princess is sleeping. If you dare disturb me, believe me or not, I'll chop your head off and throw it into the stinking ditch."

Li Muge has a very bad temper when she wakes up.

The anger of being woken up fueled her fury.

"Li Muge, you'd better figure out who I am before you decide."

"You...you...you are the Regent." Li Muge was being dragged along by Regent Yun Qi. She rubbed her eyes, initially thinking it was a dream.

When they realized it really was the Regent.

The person suddenly became listless.

She is a bit slow-witted, but not to the point of being stupid.

"I'm sorry, please just pretend I was talking in my sleep." Li Muge stood up, biting her lip, looking like a good girl who had done something wrong.

Yun Qi suddenly found it quite amusing, and he raised his finger to lift Li Muge's chin.

Her face should have been radiant, but the timidity and dullness in the girl's eyes made her seem somewhat uninteresting.

Yun Qi suddenly felt weak.

What's the point of arguing with an idiot?

"Stand still, I'm going to accompany you on your homecoming visit today."

"What? You...you want to come with me on my homecoming?" Li Muge was stunned, not reacting at all.

"Your Majesty, why are you accompanying me on my homecoming? The old woman said that only a woman's husband can accompany her on the homecoming. My rooster husband has already been killed by you, how can you take his place?"
