Chapter 481 The Heavenly Phoenix Appears



Tianfeng raised her head from the ground and shook the dust off her face.

'Damn it, how did I fall?!'

Why did I fall? How could I fall?

'Can we still go back...?'

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Wanwan abruptly raised her head and looked sharply at Tianfeng opposite her.

"Tianfeng!!!"

A tender baby's voice rang out from the ground, making Tianfeng, who was on the ground, feel that disaster was about to strike.

Tianfeng was about to flap its wings and fly away when Xiao Wanwan grabbed its tail.

Xiao Wanwan said, "So you still know how to come back?"

'I was careless. I just wanted to take a look, but I ended up giving myself away.'

[You're not getting away this time, just wait and see how I deal with you!!]

Lin Wanwan screamed inwardly, grabbed the birdcage she had prepared from the doorway, and locked the bird inside with a 'thud'.

Tianfeng stared in disbelief inside the cage.

Good heavens, it turns out this was premeditated.

Yet, it couldn't believe that its owner, who had been with it for thousands of years, would keep it in a cheap cage. It sniffed carefully…

It even smelled like poop.

"Ugh~"

"Ugh~"

"Which damn bird is it, pooping everywhere? It stinks like hell!"

"Ugh~"

"Ugh~"

Tianfeng leaned against the iron cage, making retching motions, completely devoid of her usual elegant demeanor.

Lin Wanwan leaned closer and sniffed.

[Strange, why do I smell like an immortal?]

He shouted in his heart, and then moved closer.

【Why does this look so familiar? It seems like there's more than one?】

As she spoke, Lin Wanwan stared into Tianfeng's eyes, as if trying to see through her. Tianfeng felt guilty under her gaze and lowered her head involuntarily.

Just then, Xiao Wanwan's bright embroidered shoes with a slight sway were revealed to everyone.

The regent was dumbfounded.

These embroidered shoes were specially made by him through his subordinates in Xuan Yue Kingdom. They were a one-year anniversary gift for Ye Lanyin. He hadn't even put them on yet, but the child had already put them on?

He knelt down and tremblingly took it out from his daughter's little feet.

"Wanwan, where...where did you get it?" His tone was filled with sorrow.

He originally thought Chengyun was just a mischievous kid, until he met Chang'an and thought he was the most rebellious child in the family. He even privately told General Sun to be stricter with him during training.

Unexpectedly, the daughter he cherished most was the most rebellious and troublesome child in the family.

"Dad, I saw it on your desk. Did you give it to me? It's too big; I wear a small size!"

As she spoke, Xiao Wanwan held out her palm and gestured to her hand, "So small~"

"Don't you remember?"

The regent held the shoes with trembling hands, his heart bleeding.

These jade shoes were designed by him personally with great care. He had his subordinates bring out shoes specially made by people from Xuan Yue Kingdom, making them unique in the entire Bianjing.

"Father...this is for your mother~"

Okay, okay.

This wonderful daughter certainly didn't disappoint him; every day after their marriage brought him surprises.

First, in order to protect him, they took turns having his colleagues bow to him at their doors.

Lin Wanwan said at the time: "Uncle, don't get too excited. I'm a first-rank princess bestowed upon me by the Emperor. I know you all like me, and each of you will have a chance to pay your respects to me~"

"Come on, everyone, line up!"

Does this kid think this is grocery shopping?

After that, he was completely isolated when he attended court, and his colleagues would avoid him.

Who would have thought that he, the valiant and skilled regent, His Majesty's own brother, would be isolated?

This is an utter disgrace!!

Later, Lin Wanwan organized trips for the sons and daughters of her colleagues, saying it was to cultivate their relationship with the princess.

Even princesses of the royal family wouldn't dare to do that, yet this little county princess dares to abuse her power?

But all the children were happy to go, and in the end, they all went home dirty. Their parents thought they were beggars and almost chased their own children and grandchildren away!

What did Wanwan lead them to do?

In the beggars' den, they compete with each other for territory and food, arguing about who is the dirtiest and can get the most money!

When his colleagues found out, they organized a group to go to his home demanding an explanation, and he didn't dare to attend court for three days!

Who would have thought that his ambitious life would end in ruin at the hands of this rebellious woman?

"Oh, it's for my mother? Father, you didn't say anything, I thought it was for me."

Regent: Damn it, I already said I was going to give it to your mother, what else can I say? If I say it, there won't be any surprise?

"Mom, are you angry?"

Seeing that the Regent was not particularly happy, Xiao Wanwan looked at Ye Lanyin with a wronged expression, while there were many ladies around who felt sorry for her.

Ye Lanyin's lips twitched.

"Mother...why would I be angry? Since your father gave it to me, if you like it, I'll let you play with it."

Regent: "My lady~"

"Husband, it's just a pair of shoes. It's alright, you can wear them either way, don't worry..."

Before Ye Lanyin could finish speaking, Xiao Wanwan picked up a fragment from the ground and proudly displayed it to everyone: "Oh, Mother, I found a corner of jade."

"I've made a fortune..."

Ye Lanyin: "..."

Regent: I'd rather cry myself to death.

"I don't know who dropped it..." Lin Wanwan said as she looked around, but she couldn't see the jade shoes in the Regent's hand that were missing a corner.

Seeing this, the others dared not say anything. After all, offending the Regent would only result in impeachment, but offending Xiao Wanwan would be a thousand kinds of mental torture.

then.

Madam Sheng broke the awkward silence first, smiling and saying, "I'm so envious. Lan Yin even has a celebration for her first wedding anniversary."

"Look at me, my wife. We've been married for over ten years. Forget about anniversaries, forget about shoes, you haven't even given me a piece of candy."

After hearing his wife's reprimand, the Grand Commandant was filled with a survival instinct and completely forgot about what the Regent had just done.

"Madam, when have I ever not bought you candy?"

"The money in the house is yours to manage. Besides, when we got engaged, I bought you candied hawthorns several times. Have you forgotten?"

It would have been better if the Grand Commandant hadn't brought this up, because it made Madam Sheng extremely unhappy.

I rolled up my sleeves and grabbed the Grand Commandant's ear as I walked over to the banquet. "How dare you say that? Can money and gifts be the same thing? Or are you implying that you have to put in effort before the wedding, but you don't have to once the lady is married into the family...?"

"Ouch, madam, it hurts, it hurts... Didn't you say you didn't like food and only liked money? Why are you blaming me again..."

At first, Tianfeng was still being watched by some people in the cage, but now everyone's attention was focused on their surroundings, and one by one they made excuses to look for something and leave.

Only Tenhou remained, imprisoned in a cage.

The Regent was furious.

He glanced at the birdcage on the ground, gritted his teeth, and lifted his leg.

With a muffled thud, Tianfeng was thrown down the steps.

With several loud thuds, it rolled directly into the ditch.
