Chapter 23: The Cold Demon King vs. the Beautiful Little Fox Demon



Dongfang Ninghe was awakened by Jiang Ruyi's voice. He opened his eyes and looked outside. The sky was still dark, the rain was still falling, and the candlelight was still on.

It's still late at night.

He stared at Jiang Ruyi's face for a while, and his eyes slowly focused.

He had just had a very bold but outrageous dream.

He dreamed of kissing Su Jiaojiao.

How can this be?

She is a demon, he is a human, humans and demons are on different paths, being together is against the will of heaven.

Just like Wu Chen and the carp spirit, they did all kinds of evil things and were finally punished by God.

But he had to admit that Su Jiaojiao was indeed the secret that he had buried deep in his heart.

Ever since he saw the painting in the emperor's study, he had fallen deeply in love with it.

"Your Majesty, are you having a nightmare? Do you want some water?" Jiang Ruyi stood up and called the palace maid in to serve him.

She was already one month pregnant at this time, but Dongfang Ninghe still stayed in her palace, which showed that he loved her very much.

Seeing Jiang Ruyi caring about him so much, yet he did such immoral things in his dream, Dongfang Ninghe felt very guilty.

In the second half of the night, Dongfang Ninghe warned himself, hugged Jiang Ruyi tightly, and fell into a deep sleep.

The sky brightened and the rain that had fallen all night finally stopped, and it was another sunny day.

Ye Jiuli's injuries have healed a lot. Su Jiaojiao watched over him all night and was so tired that she kept dozing off with her head nodding.

Ye Jiuli simply put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt. As soon as Su Jiaojiao touched the pillow, she fell asleep.

Mo Xun's body was not found, so he was probably still alive, but no one knew where he was hiding.

Given his vengeful nature, he will definitely come back to seek revenge.

If he brings disaster to the world, then kill him on the spot. I believe the snake clan has other suitable candidates.

Baoxiang Temple became lively. The monks got up before dawn to chant sutras and recite Buddhist scriptures. Now that pilgrims arrived, the temple became even more lively.

The person who came was none other than Jiang Ruyi.

"The emperor had a nightmare last night, so I came here today to pray for him." Jiang Ruyi was really worried about Dongfang Ninghe's health.

People who have nightmares usually feel tired the next day.

Dongfang Ninghe is the emperor, and there cannot be any mistakes in government affairs.

So Jiang Ruyi felt even more distressed.

He has never belonged to her alone; he is the emperor of the world.

It was just a trivial thing that she could do.

Ye Jiuli saw that Jiang Ruyi was pregnant. Could a mortal woman walk such a long mountain road and climb such a high mountain when she was pregnant?

There is smoke here and the smell is quite strong.

Jiang Ruyi was originally praying very devoutly, but the next second his face turned pale and he started to vomit.

It seems that being pregnant is not pleasant.

Su Jiaojiao was also pregnant, but her manager was kidnapped and almost killed, which was really difficult.

Ye Jiuli slightly bent his fingers behind his back, and he began to feel sorry for the little fox.

The prayer was interrupted, so Jiang Ruyi had to go into the side room only for nobles to rest for a while.

As soon as she came in from the moon gate, she saw Su Jiaojiao standing on the steps outside the room, looking up and breathing.

The memories of being teased suddenly came to her mind, and Jiang Ruyi froze in place.

"Su, Su, Su Jiaojiao? Why are you here?" Jiang Ruyi already knew Su Jiaojiao's true identity. Now when she saw her again, she avoided her like the plague.

She didn't believe that Su Jiaojiao was a good demon. At most, she was a demon hiding her evil and pretending to be a human.

She subconsciously protected her stomach.

Su Jiaojiao knew that she was pregnant.

About a month or so.

"Your Majesty, you are here too?" Su Jiaojiao smiled brightly at her, her eyes curved.

Jiang Ruyi pretended to be calm and walked over. "Well, I was ignorant of my own limitations before. If I have offended Miss Su in any way, I hope you will forgive me."

This means asking for forgiveness.

Su Jiaojiao is not a stingy person. Besides, the other party has already apologized, so there is no need for her to hold on to it.

"Haihan, there's no need to ask for forgiveness. I won't offend anyone unless they offend me." Su Jiaojiao even gave a special warning, "The mountain road is steep. Your Majesty is pregnant, so you must be careful. There are many snakes, insects, rats, and ants on the mountain."

Su Jiaojiao kindly reminded.

But when Jiang Ruyi heard it, it had a different meaning.

"You're still running around when you're pregnant. If you had a miscarriage, it must have been caused by snakes, insects, rats, or ants. It's not my fault."

Jiang Ruyi protected her belly more tightly and walked around Su Jiaojiao.

This made Su Jiaojiao think that there was an invisible wall between them.

"Hide this fox fur and throw it away at the critical moment. It will save your life." Su Jiaojiao felt pity for her when she saw that she was also a pregnant woman, even though she had wanted to harm her before.

Jiang Ruyi took the tuft of snow-white fox fur with some doubt, and it felt very soft in her hand.

The palace maid found a purse and put it in, then handed it to Jiang Ruyi.

Ye Jiuli searched for Mo Xun within a radius of a hundred miles for a whole day, but still could not find any trace of him.

Fortunately, he had already issued a bounty. If anyone found Mo Xun and killed him, they would receive a generous reward from him.

By the time Jiang Ruyi had a good rest, it was already the afternoon.

Su Jiaojiao has completed all the training.

Dongfang Ninghe came over with his men.

"When I heard that you came to Baoxiang Temple this morning, I was very worried. I rushed here as soon as I finished my government affairs." Dongfang Ninghe entered the room, poured tea for Jiang Ruyi, and helped her sit up.

His gaze lingered on Jiang Ruyi's face, gentle and affectionate.

Jiang Ruyi felt embarrassed by his gaze and blushed slightly.

"Your Majesty, I'm fine." Jiang Ruyi drank the tea from his hand. "I'm just worried. Your Majesty must have been overworked recently, which is why he had a nightmare."

It wasn't that he was tired, it was just that he had some other thoughts in his mind.

A familiar face appeared in his mind.

Why do I think of Su Jiaojiao again?

Can't think about it anymore.

"I'm fine. After I'm done with this busy period, I'll take you to travel among the people." Dongfang Ninghe knew that he felt guilty, so he tried his best to be nice to Jiang Ruyi.

In fact, he was quite good to her, but not to such a meticulous extent.

Jiang Ruyi was so happy about his thoughtfulness that she didn't know what to say, so she could only lean her head gently in his arms.

After having a good rest, Jiang Ruyi prayed for Dongfang Ninghe as she wished.

A large group of people went down the mountain.

They had to get back to the palace before sunset.

But for some reason, Jiang Ruyi and Dongfang Ninghe were each riding in a sedan chair, and their buttocks were sore from sitting, but they were still on the mountain.

According to the progress we made this morning, we should have reached the foot of the mountain by now.

"What's going on? Why are you still on the mountain?" Dongfang Ninghe also realized that something was wrong. He got out of the sedan chair and held Jiang Ruyi's hand, telling her not to be afraid.
