At the palace banquet on the Lantern Festival, Bai Chi attended with Lan Yunxiao as princesses with great fanfare.
Although some people whispered about it, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor both acquiesced, and naturally no one was so foolish as to bring bad luck upon themselves.
You have to know that the little prince now is not the little kid who knew nothing in the eyes of everyone.
After the palace banquet, Bai Chi took Lan Yunxiao to bid farewell to his mother, the queen, and his brother, and went straight back to his palace.
The next morning, the imperial edict arrived from the palace, conferring the title of Prince on the fifteenth prince, Bai Chi, and bestowing him the title of Xian.
After that, Bai Chi lived in the palace with Lan Yunxiao with peace of mind, taking a stroll in the streets from time to time, and occasionally going out of town for a day to play somewhere else.
Lan Yunxiao's identity as a Miao Gu Master had long been known. In the eyes of non-Miao people, witchcraft was inherently an evil thing. Lan Yunxiao, the Miao saint son, who was proficient in Gu poison, naturally made people stay away from him.
This gave the two of them some peace and quiet, and Bai Chi also fulfilled his promise to the village chief and took him back to the Miao village for a while every summer.
Later, the two discovered that the Miao village was the best place to escape the summer heat. Even during the hottest times, their stilt houses were still cool, and it was even a little cold at night.
He stayed in the capital most of the time during the winter, but not in the palace, but in a villa outside the city, and even in a remote place deliberately chosen.
Lan Yunxiao likes to practice poison and witchcraft, so it is more convenient for him to live in a remote villa where he has no neighbors to worry about.
Of course, the most important thing is that he can set up magic circles at will in winter so that Lan Yunxiao doesn't have to be afraid of the cold.
With Bai Chi's ability to go anywhere at will, Lan Yunxiao can find any poisonous plants and insects he wants at any time.
However, what made Bai Chi happiest was that as Lan Yunxiao was fed with spiritual wine and food, his body gradually got better, and at least he was not so afraid of the cold in winter.
Sure enough, it wasn’t because of the poison.
The only thing that made Bai Chi unhappy was that a large amount of liquor was sent from the border every year, specifically to the Xianwang Mansion.
It's simply a provocation!
If it weren't for General Zhou, who had made remarkable achievements in recent years, Bai Chi would have almost destroyed everyone!
He is really not afraid of death, he actually dares to think about him!
Bai Chi narrowed his eyes and looked at another batch of gift lists sent to the palace. Murderous intent was about to overflow, but the little Xunzi next to him was still happy.
"Your Highness, I didn't expect General Zhou to be so nostalgic. It's simply because you helped him eliminate the spies and earned him merit back then that he has been sending you gifts all these years."
Xiao Xunzi was holding a gift list in his hand, which was full of gifts from the border and rare things from outside the customs. The most numerous of them was a hundred jars of liquor.
Bai Chi doesn't drink, at least not a heavy drinker.
However, Xiao Xunzi was only concerned with the gift list and didn't notice that his prince's face had turned dark.
"Your Highness, there are some rare poisons here. General Zhou is really thoughtful. The princess will definitely like it..."
"Shut up!"
The teacup was placed heavily on the table, and only then did Xiao Xunzi realize how chilly the atmosphere was, and he finally reacted belatedly.
No, why are most of the things the general gave this week the princess's favorites?
Cold sweat broke out, and my mind kept recalling what I had said every time I received a gift list from the border over the past few years.
The more I recalled, the colder my neck felt, and I felt like my head was in danger.
Fortunately, I heard the master sneer the next second.
"Please prepare your writings. I will personally brew a truly fine wine for the princess!"
