"..."
Shao Linyuan turned around, his eyes narrowing dangerously, quickly extinguishing Yu Liang's courage to continue speaking.
The young guard's smile gradually turned awkward, and he immediately stood at attention and said, "Never mind, never mind, I'll get you some berries."
Only after seeing Shao Shaxing off did he breathe a slight sigh of relief and begin to ponder to himself—
So many days have passed, and their master's complexion is rosy and he looks refreshed, while the nine-tailed fox has not left the Qiwu Palace.
Yu Liang's pupils contracted as a bold thought suddenly occurred to him: Could it be that his master... absorbed the fox demon's essence?
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a beast," Yu Liang thought to himself as he and his men secretly entered the secret passage and took berries transported from Jiangnan for three days straight.
As he turned around, his subordinate asked, "Lord Yu, why does your smile seem so much like something out of a storybook?"
Yu Liang:?
Subordinate: "It's that kind of coldness, a hint of sarcasm, and a dash of nonchalance that makes him seem... a bit abnormal."
"Hahaha." Yu Liang laughed heartily, patted his subordinate's shoulder, and said, "I'm laughing: A fox spirit laughs as a rider raises dust, but no one knows it's Meizi who has arrived."
… …
In Qiwu Palace, Si Jin lay flat on the couch, occasionally stroking his tail that he couldn't retract.
tired.
During special periods, it seems like there's inexhaustible energy in my body. I crave possession and look forward to tearing things apart. Even reason is extinguished by instinct.
But after this period, my bones felt like they were melting, and even moving them was difficult. I had to block out pain all day before I could even think about talking to Xiao Yao.
I think Yu Liang's thinking is quite right.
"Huh?" The little tiger sat in his sea of consciousness, staring at the floating system screen alongside him: "What?"
That guy surnamed Shao is draining my life force; I'll have to think of a way to get back at him.
Seeing his master's smile, Xiao Yao knew that he wasn't just thinking of a solution, but that he already... had a solution.
So, to protect his meager remaining hairs, he immediately nodded respectfully and blindly echoed: "Yes, yes, he went too far! He has to be dealt with."
As she spoke, she rubbed her paws ingratiatingly: "What other parts of the story would you like to see, sir? I'll find them for you—"
Splash—
Suddenly, a loud noise interrupted the little system's words.
Si Jin and Xiao Yao turned around at the same time and saw Zi Tong walk in at some point, and then smash a blue and white porcelain vase on the table near the door.
Then, she looked down innocently and said, "Oh dear, little fox, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
"Her Majesty the Empress only asked me to come and check on you, but I didn't expect you to break this... Oh, is this a reward from His Majesty?"
That tone was so affected and pretentious that even Xiao Yao couldn't help but get angry and felt extremely disgusted.
Si Jin slowly sat up, her gaze falling on the broken porcelain shards on the ground—the so-called betrothal gifts that Eunuch Xu had brought when he arrived.
After Shao Linyuan closed the vase, he placed it on the table, constantly jealous of it, wishing he could crush it into pieces.
This time, someone even offered to help.
Seeing that she had attracted the fox's attention, Zitong was amused by her own thoughts.
Because she failed to retrieve the demon core, she was left with only one hand, and she also developed a grudge against the Empress.
Why is it that this fox demon can live peacefully in the palace and receive His Majesty's rewards?
She's not having a good time, so she can forget about this!
With a hint of relief, the woman continued smugly, "I remember that breaking the reward given by His Majesty was punishable by fifty strokes of the cane. Your little body, which was just scolded by Commander Shao, can't take it, can it?"
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's your own fault for not knowing how to speak properly; you deserve to be framed."
Before he could finish speaking, footsteps sounded outside the door.
