Chapter 68068 Seducing Jiang Qingwu
The fox clan has been very busy these days.
The news that Fifth Prince Tu Li was pursuing Shi Hua spread like wildfire, and everyone in the Fox Clan was curious about what the person who could win the Fifth Prince's favor looked like.
Tu Xuan was so shocked when she heard the news that she spat out a mouthful of tea.
The Fox Queen rolled her eyes and threw her handkerchief at his face.
"Why, are you still obsessed with me?"
Tu Xuan dared not to, and begged for mercy repeatedly: "My wife has wronged me. It's fine if outsiders don't know about it, but how could my wife not know about it? Thousands of years ago, she caused a bloody storm among the fox tribe, and I was the only one who was honest and sensible..."
"Why don't you just say you were a coward?"
The Fox Queen blew lazily on her freshly painted nails and glanced over: "Are you really going to let her decide the heir?"
Tu Xuan's expression was unusually serious. "The elders have different opinions, and each has its own supporters. This situation has been deadlocked for over a hundred years. I also want to quickly choose an heir and travel far away with my wife."
"Don't be so talkative."
"I just want to spend more time with my wife." Tu Xuan touched his nose in frustration. "If she comes forward, the elders won't dare to complain. After all, they won't forget her abilities."
The Fox Queen stared at her nails for a long time before she spoke: "I don't care what the final outcome is. Chen'er and Yue'er are my own children. Nothing must happen to them!"
Tu Xuan naturally knew her protective nature.
Although he was forced to take a concubine and give birth to other children, the only one Tu Xuan loved in his heart was the Fox Queen. If the Fox Queen had not forced him, he would not have agreed to take a concubine.
"Of course! Of course!"
"I've asked her to treat my leg this time. I think there's hope."
The Fox Queen responded calmly, "So many people have seen it and all say it can be cured. Can Jiang Qingwu cure it?"
She didn't know much about the man.
I only heard that she massacred the palace.
Tu Xuan was mysterious. "There are some things I can't tell my wife. I have a feeling that her identity is not simple."
How could she dare to cause trouble in the fox clan with the identity of a wandering cultivator? Either the person behind her is of high status, or her identity is not simple.
The Fox Queen narrowed her eyes slightly: "I hope so."
At the same time, when the news came out that Tu Li was going to pursue Shi Hua, several princes became restless.
But they managed to hold themselves back and not take any action, until Tu Ye came knocking on their door.
The two sides confronted each other, and no one spoke.
Tu Li sent the servants away.
"No tea, Fifth Brother?"
"I don't think you want to drink my tea."
But that's the truth.
Tu Ye sneered: "It's rumored outside that Fifth Brother wants to pursue Jiang Qingwu. What's going on? Fifth Brother really likes the person who cut off his tail?"
"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? This is my business. Seventh brother, you should go back and think about yourself."
"Goodbye."
It only took a cup of tea to go back and forth, and Tu Ye was kicked out by him.
The elders who came in from outside all looked terrified.
When Tu Ye left just now, his face looked extremely ugly, and one could tell at a glance that it was Tu Li who was angry.
No matter how angry Tu Ye was, he didn't dare to attack his fifth brother openly.
One of the elders tugged at his beard and asked hesitantly, "Your Highness, are you really going to... chase after that Jiang Qingwu?"
Several princes from a thousand years ago failed, can the fifth prince succeed?
Several elders exchanged glances, and no one believed it.
Tu Li leaned his head lazily on the couch.
"I'm chasing her? Even if I die, I won't fall in love with someone who cuts off both my tails!"
He will definitely avenge this great hatred!
He will wait until Jiang Qingwu lets down her guard against him before he takes action!
The elders looked at each other secretly again.
Sure enough, this is right.

In the following days, Tu Li came to the door every day with a food box, and promised to pursue the girl in the name of taking actual action.
When Wei Shizhou saw that it was him, he stopped the man at the door without saying a word and refused to let him in no matter what.
The two of them were in a stalemate at the door, causing the nearby fox demon to frequently peek in.
Soon, news came out that the Fifth Prince was chasing someone, but was stopped outside the door by an ungrateful human cultivator. After further investigation, it was learned that it was Wei Shizhou, who was almost overwhelmingly inclined towards Tu Li.
The matter became more and more serious.
Tu Muyue was listening to the messages from the people below Tu Chen and was so angry that her teeth were itching.
"Third brother, what is Fifth brother going to do?"
Didn’t Tu Li say that he hated that person?
How could that be?
Tu Muyue looked at his unworldly profile, and something suddenly flashed through her mind. She exclaimed, "Is he trying to seduce Jiang Qingwu and get the position of heir?!"
"Eighth sister, be careful with your words."
Tu Muyue: "That's clearly the case! He must have seen that the other brothers' tricks didn't work, so he wanted to use the beautiful fox trick. How insidious! Where's the fair competition we agreed on?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. Ignoring Tu Chen's dissuasion, she rushed towards Shi Hua's palace in a hurry.
The attendant behind him bent forward.
"Your Highness, do you need me to stop the Eighth Princess?"
Tu Chen waved his hand: "No need, let her be."
It was a good opportunity for him to see what that person's attitude was. Was he really willing to let her take over his legs?
The servant stood silently behind him and pushed him into the house.
*
Tu Muyue stood outside the hall, wondering why there was no one outside.
As a guest of honor, how could he be so perfunctory? Was he intentionally turned away?
She walked in half-believing and half-doubting, and ran into two entangled shadows head-on, and her eyes widened immediately.
"Jiang Qingwu? Sixth Brother?"
The two heard her voice.
Tu Ying frowned, let go of her hand, and took a few steps back.
Shi Hua didn't expect her to react so quickly, and the poisonous scorpion in his hand slipped away inadvertently.
Rushing straight towards Tu Muyue.
Tu Muyue was horrified: "Ah!"
In a flash, a stream of extremely cold air shot out, accurately freezing the poisonous scorpion.
Tu Muyue was so frightened that she fell to the ground, clutching her chest with lingering fear, her lips trembling: "Is it, is it, is it the Jade Scorpion?!"
The entire body of the green scorpion is emerald green, like a piece of fine jade, transparent and pure, sparkling in the sun. Although it looks beautiful, its poison is actually ranked in the top ten in terms of venom. If you are stung by it, you will be severely crippled if not killed.
How could a green scorpion appear in the fox clan's territory?
Tu Muyue suddenly looked at Tu Ying: "Did you take it out?!"
Among the fox clan, only Tu Ying practices poison techniques, and only he has so many poisonous creatures around him.
Tu Ying pursed her lips.
It was an accident that the Green Scorpion appeared.
Shi Hua got the Green Scorpion as he wished and was in a good mood.
"Eighth Princess, why are you here?"
Tu Muyue stood up from the ground, clapped his hands, and looked around at the two of them: "What were you doing just now?"
If she saw correctly, it seemed that Shi Hua was grabbing Tu Ying's wrist and pressing her under him.
That posture looks weird no matter how you look at it.
Shi Hua said calmly, "I have something to ask His Highness the Sixth Prince. I saw a Jade Scorpion and wanted to catch it, but I didn't want to be disturbed by His Highness the Eighth Prince."
Why doesn't she believe it?
Tu Muyue was half-believing and half-doubting.
Tu Ying, the only one who knew the inside story, nodded in agreement.
Actually, it’s really not the case.
*
After Tu Xuan announced publicly that the successor would be decided by Shi Hua, Tu Ying remained silent. She watched her brothers trying their best to win Shi Hua's favor, while her ninth brother was so clumsy that he even ate most of the fruit he was offered.
She had also heard of Tu Li's beautiful fox trick, but it was obviously not going to work on her.
No one knows her identity as a woman disguised as a man.
This is where things get tricky.
The only thing I can use on my body is poison, and I don't know if the other party needs it.
Unexpectedly, before Tu Ying could worry for long, Shi Hua delivered a letter first.
Invite Tu Ying to have a chat.
Regardless of the other party's purpose, Tu Ying is bound to go.
She had to go over and test the other party's attitude before she could make her next plan.
Tu Ying arrived at the appointment as agreed and was ready for action. Before she even sat down, she noticed someone pulling at something in her arms.
Tu Ying held down the box containing the green scorpion.
The look is unfriendly.
"Miss Jiang, taking something without asking is considered stealing."
Shi Hua was not embarrassed by being caught. Instead, she was very curious about what was inside the box. "What's in the box that makes His Highness the Sixth Prince so nervous? I see that the box seems to have a dangerous aura around it."
Tu Ying didn't answer, but asked, "Why did Miss Jiang ask me to come here today?"
The other party took out a porcelain bottle, pushed the pill bottle with slender jade fingers, raised the corners of his lips, and smiled beautifully.
Tu Ying stared for a moment and then looked away.
Shi Hua: "This was done by the Sixth Prince, right?"
Tu Ying smelled a familiar scent and frowned, "I have refined this kind of medicine before, but..."
"But you didn't deliberately give the wrong recipe to the fox who sells pills." Shi Hua waved his hand, and the bottle of pills disappeared into thin air. "You fox people, you all have so much free time."
This statement has a hidden meaning.
Shi Hua leaned back.
The image of Wei Shizhou's red face and sparkling eyes flashed through my mind. I have to admit that Wei Shizhou's fox-like appearance is indeed attractive.
"How many people are watching from the dark?"
Tu Ying was silent for a moment: "Except the people I sent, they should have sent five people each."
By this calculation, there were more than twenty people watching her palace.
Wei Shizhou took the fox-transformation pill without telling her, and he must have concealed it when he bought it. Tu Ying knew his purpose, so she gave the fox-transformation pill recipe to the seller, but she didn't expect that someone had secretly tampered with it.
He bought the elixir in the fox tribe's territory and had the audacity to eat it. Shi Hua didn't know whether to praise him for his bravery or scold him for being stupid.
Tu Ying apologized, "I am responsible for this. How does Miss Jiang want me to compensate her?"
"Then take your Jade Scorpion as compensation."
Paint with a hook of your finger.
The wooden box flew out of his arms.
Tu Ying's face changed drastically and she tried to grab the wooden box.
The scramble to open the wooden box woke up the green scorpion, which raised its tail in dissatisfaction.
Tu Yi quickly pressed it down.
Someone suddenly grabbed my wrist.
There is pain in the wrist.
Tu Ying looked up, and the other party's oppressive breath hit her. Her face instantly lost all color, and she fell back unable to stand.
Shi Hua reached out and embraced her.
"The Jade Scorpion is extremely poisonous. Even if you are skilled in poison techniques, if you keep this thing around, it will eventually kill you."
Tu Ying refused to let go.
"Miss Jiang also said that I am good at poison. How could I, a person covered in poison, be afraid of the poison of the Jade Scorpion?"
"You!" Shi Hua seemed helpless. "The Jade Scorpion's poison is no joke. You can't tame this thing. No matter how much blood you feed it, as long as it seizes the opportunity, it will... Look, just like now."
During the conversation, Tu Ying's mind was mostly distracted. The green scorpion took advantage of the opportunity to break free from her restraints, lying on the back of her hand, with its scorpion tail raised high, and its sharp hook shining coldly.
