Chapter 143 Yun Bailian's Luck Has Changed
When observing with the spiritual pupil, Xiao Zirui was still shrouded in thick black energy.
It was the same as what he saw when he first crossed over, with all kinds of cause and effect resentments entangled. If he was not the crown prince with the royal dragon energy protecting him, he would have been backfired and nothing would have been left.
The problem is that in order to escape punishment this time, Xiao Zirui ordered a bloody massacre in Yunwu Village, leaving nearly two thousand people dead.
Even though the bandits had committed many evil deeds, there were still many old, weak, women and children among them. He should have been burdened with a huge blood debt for his actions, and the black aura around him should have been much thicker.
However, in fact, Lingtong did not see more black air than before. Instead, his originally little luck seemed to have increased a little bit.
If it weren't for this little extra luck, what Xiao Zirui had done this time would definitely not have been resolved by simply fining his salary and confinement.
But fate and cause and effect are mysterious things. It is hard to say whether he did it by accident or accumulated merit through some unintentional act.
Thinking of this, Yun Qingqing put the matter aside for the time being.
The most important thing right now is still to accumulate spiritual energy. As long as she returns to her peak soon, everything else will not be a problem.
Prince's Mansion.
As evening approached, Yun Bailian returned home in a happy mood and walked briskly towards Xiao Zirui's courtyard.
"Brother Crown Prince, I brought you some cakes from Caizhizhai. Come and try them to see if you like the taste..."
"You still remember to come back!"
The angry shout startled her and she stopped where she was, at a loss as to what to do.
"Brother Prince, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Zirui had a gloomy face and pinched Yun Bailian's cheeks:
"If I hadn't believed your lies and robbed the grain cart, how could I have ended up under house arrest and almost been deposed by my father!"
"I don't think you are a Phoenix at all. You are just a jinx!"
Yun Bailian looked flustered, tears streaming down her face:
"Brother Crown Prince, how can you say that? This incident was all Yun Qingqing's conspiracy. How can you blame me for everything?"
"You've seen that my luck has been pretty good these days. If I'm really a jinx, how do I explain all those things?"
She sobbed with an innocent look on her face, and Xiao Zirui paused.
Indeed, Yun Bailian's luck has been incredibly good since the last time she guessed a coin.
She likes to eat boiled eggs for breakfast. In recent days, she has eaten double-yolk eggs from time to time, and she is the only one who can make double-yolk eggs.
Yun Bailian casually flipped through the warehouse and found an ancient painting that he had been unable to find for a long time, and it was taken out from the corner.
After dinner, he took a stroll in the yard and discovered that the housekeeper was acting suspiciously. He caught her red-handed, stealing valuable items from the mansion and selling them.
What's even more outrageous is that one day when she was taking a walk, a red apple suddenly fell from the sky and landed right in her hand. When she looked up, she found a magpie chirping and flying away.
There are many, many little things like this.
Could it be that he really misunderstood Yun Bailian?
Xiao Zirui was silent when he suddenly heard Yun Bailian exclaim:
"Ah...Brother Prince, look!"
When he came to his senses, he saw that more than a dozen butterflies had appeared around the two of them, flying around in colorful costumes, which was very beautiful.
Yun Bailian's eyes widened in surprise, with a hint of surprise on her face.
She stretched out her slender hand, and a butterfly hovered for a moment and then landed on her fingertips.
Xiao Zirui's heart moved, and he took a few steps back to distance himself from Yun Bailian.
As expected, the butterflies did not follow, but continued to fly around Yun Bailian.
Yun Bailian couldn't help but spin around a few times with joy, her giggles sounding as sweet as bells.
Xiao Zirui was stunned for a moment.
Such a strange phenomenon happened in late autumn. If this isn’t a good omen, then what is?
He actually suspected her just now... This is bad, he needs to make amends quickly.
Yun Bailian was intoxicated by the joy of being surrounded by colorful butterflies. Suddenly, she remembered something and stopped moving. She turned to look at him with a look of sadness and grievance on her face. She said timidly:
"Brother Crown Prince, Bai Lian is not a jinx, can you believe me?"
Xiao Zirui strode forward, pulled her into his arms, and said guiltily:
"I have wronged you. You are not a jinx, you are my phoenix!"
Yun Bailian buried her head in his chest and said aggrievedly:
"Then will Prince still think that the issue of food and fodder is my fault?"
"Of course it's not your fault!" Xiao Zirui blurted out, "It's Xiao Changheng and Yun Qingqing who are too insidious and deliberately plotted against me. It's not your fault!"
"It's good that you understand, Prince!" Yun Bailian finally smiled and said shyly, "Bai Lian will only be your Phoenix and lucky star, okay?"
Xiao Zirui pressed her head tightly against his chest and nodded with emotion:
"Whether you are Tianfeng or not, you are the only one in my heart!"
Ambition burned in his eyes.
It seems that the issue of military rations was just an accident.
Yun Qingqing has been acting a little weird lately. She must have used some sinister tricks, and Tianfeng had just awakened, so she got tricked.
Now Bai Lian Tian Feng's luck is getting stronger and stronger. As long as I can coax her well, it will soon be my turn to show my skills!
We’ll see when the time comes!
…
The problem of military food has been temporarily solved, but the northwest border is unstable and we still need to pay close attention to the surrounding developments.
The emperor was ill and the prince was under house arrest, so only the regent took on the responsibility of regulating the country. Xiao Changheng immediately threw himself into state affairs and was so busy that he couldn't spare any time.
Yun Qingqing continued to run Tianming Pavilion.
She arrived at Tianming Pavilion early in the morning and saw a jade-bone fan flying towards her head, accompanied by a familiar voice:
"Sister Zixi, why are you running? I won't eat you~!"
Yun Qingqing grabbed the handle of the fan, raised her hand and hit the man who was following behind her hard on the forehead.
"Ouch! Who dares to hit me..." Qingjue squatted on the ground with his head in his hands and glared, changing his expression in a second on the spot.
"Sister Qingqing~! Hehe, Sister Qingqing and Sister Zixi were just joking. Don't blame her. She definitely didn't mean to bump into you!"
"Who wants to play with you!"
Luo Zixi's figure "whoosh" emerged from the fan, pointed at Qingjue's nose and said angrily:
"You lecher, you seduce the girls in the building everywhere, and you even set your sights on me! Get away from me!"
Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows and looked at Qingjue and Luo Zixi with some surprise.
Luo Zixi hid in the jade fan and was isolated in herself for many days. She ignored anyone who called her, so Yun Qingqing placed the fan in Tianming Pavilion, thinking that the sisters here were more familiar with her and could comfort her. Maybe she would come out when she figured it out.
As a result, the fan had been silent for so many days, but it exploded as soon as Qingjue arrived.
It’s hard to comment.
Luo Zixi's face turned red with anger:
"Pavilion Master, you don't know how shameless this scoundrel is. He actually wanted to sleep with my fan in his arms without my permission! He even said he wanted to cultivate with me and turn the fan into his other half of the Jade Pendant!"
Yun Qingqing: “…”
Okay, case solved.
"No, no! I was really just joking. Sister Qingqing, please don't bother Poxiao with such a small matter, okay?"
When Qingjue met her unfriendly gaze, his desire to survive was immediately aroused and he gave in.
The copper bell at the door suddenly rang, and the door was pushed open with a "ding-ling" sound.
The person who came was a middle-aged man, wearing a scholar's blue shirt, looking a little tired, with a faint dark shadow under his eyes.
"Excuse me...is this the Tianming Pavilion?"
"That's right, please come in——"
Qingjue seemed to have seen a savior and immediately ran up to him.
