The princess has been through so much, what is there that she can't let go of?
The manager came to report that Zhao Letong and the others went to play in the garden.
[Sister Lin, let me show you someone similar.]
[A fox spirit? Are there other foxes in this world that have become spirits?]
【No, you’ll know once you see it.】
Zhao Letong was talking about the river clam spirit, which was kept in the pond. Perhaps because of its spiritual nourishment, the lotus leaves around the pond grew exceptionally lush, and even the weeping willows were emerald green and bright.
Now the eldest princess loves to come here for a walk, the air feels particularly good.
[Here we are, river clam spirit! Come out now, or I'll roast you and eat your flesh.]
The clam spirit floated out, resting. "Little aunt, why are you looking for me? I've been concentrating on my cultivation and have been quite peaceful lately. I haven't left this pond yet."
【Can’t I play with you? 】
Clam Spirit: "..."
[Okay, my pleasure.]
Lin Susu jumped down and communicated with the river clam spirit. Zhao Letong didn't understand what they were talking about, so he took Fang Xinyue and his second nephew to pick lotus leaves to play with.
"Lotus leaves are also a medicinal herb. These lotus leaves are particularly large. Picking some and brewing them into tea would be good."
Fang Xinyue asked the maid and only went to pick it after getting permission. She knew that her status could not be compared with Zhao Letong, and she was able to enter the princess's mansion by relying on Letong's help.
Zhao Youxi stared at the fish in the pond and asked, "Why are all these fish black and white? Aren't there any red koi?"
Most families raise koi, which has good meaning and is beautiful. The black and white fish look quite strange.
Zhao Letong took a closer look and was shocked. [Isn't this a yin-yang fish?]
"What?"
[As the name suggests, the Yin-Yang fish possesses two attributes, one yin and one yang. This fish is rarely seen, and its greatest use is to reshape the human soul.]
[If there is a nine-section lotus root, paired with the Yin-Yang fish, even if a person dies and only a wisp of soul remains, they can be reincarnated.]
Zhao Youxi was shocked, "So powerful?"
[Of course, you mustn't tell anyone. This is a treasure, coveted by all cultivators in the world. There are so many of them, probably because of the princess's merits.]
Zhao Letong looked nervous. He asked his maid to bring him cinnabar talisman paper and began to draw talismans. He set up a talisman formation around the pond to hide the aura of the Yin-Yang fish.
The clam spirit and the fox spirit were both startled. "Le Tong, what are you doing?"
[Protect the clam spirit! What if someone finds out and captures and eats it? Clam spirit, don't you know where those fish come from?]
River Clam Spirit, [It was just a small fish at first, but it's grown a lot in the past few days. It looks like a normal fish to me. I want to try a few of them.]
[Don't mess with it. This is a yin-yang fish, and it hasn't grown up yet. If you can protect it until it grows up, it won't be a problem for it to transform into a human in the future.]
【Really? 】
Do I need to lie to you?
From then on, the clam spirit took the Yin-Yang fish to heart. Whenever someone came to fish, the clam spirit would protect the fish and not let anyone catch it.
Because of the Yin-Yang fish, no other fish could survive. Fortunately, the eldest princess didn't care and this abnormality was well hidden.
When the talisman array was set up, a loud thunder roared in the sky. Zhao Letong was startled. "What are you striking for? It's just a small array. Look how stingy you are."
Zhao Letong rolled his eyes, and strangely enough, the dark clouds gradually dissipated.
The vixen hid under her skirt and trembled, thinking that she had been discovered by the Heavenly Dao.
It was the first time Fang Xinyue saw a fox so scared, and she felt very distressed. "If anyone dares to bully my fox, I will help you kill him. Don't be afraid, I'm not afraid anymore."
Zhao Letong also said: "That's right, what are you afraid of? I'm here, right?"
Lin Susu was touched and calmed down a bit. "Don't worry, this is just an instinctive fear. We monsters are naturally afraid of thunder."
Zhao Letong was in a very good mood when he came to play today and found such a wonderful treasure.
The eldest princess sent someone to call them to dinner. A group of people accompanied the eldest princess. The meal was very lively and she even ate half an extra bowl of rice.
After the meal, he served tea and chatted with the eldest princess.
"Le Tong, why is your family against the Xu family? There are some serious rumors out there now. Is the story about the young master of the Xu family true?"
Zhao Letong said seriously, "Your Highness, it's not my family that's against the Xu family. It's the Xu family that committed the crime. He colluded with the female ghost and killed several young ladies. His crimes are serious and he deserves to be brought to justice."
"Colluding with ghosts? This matter is not easy to handle. Does the Imperial Astronomical Observatory need to intervene?"
All incidents involving ghosts and monsters were handled by the Imperial Observatory, but they could not be made public to avoid panic among the people.
"No need. What he did will definitely leave traces. Young Master Xu doesn't have the ability to fly or hide."
The princess nodded and said, "That's good. Let the Dali Temple make a fair judgment."
Zhao Youxi said, "I'm afraid the Xu family will do something. I have to protect him. This young master Xu is a well-known playboy and is doted on by his family."
The eldest princess said, "Don't worry. If Madam Xu acts unreasonably, I will go talk to her. I don't believe her family can defeat the law."
This is the kingdom she protects, it belongs to the Xiao family, not his Xu family.
Zhao Youxi admired the eldest princess's domineering attitude. "It would be best if Your Highness could intervene in this matter. My brother won't be bullied by the Xu family anymore."
Zhao Letong felt something was wrong when he heard this, "Did the Xu family bully my nephew?"
"It's nothing. I heard that Madam Xu kicked my eldest brother out, so he went to the palace gate to look for General Xu."
The eldest princess nodded secretly. The children of the Zhao family are all good people. They are not afraid of power. The court needs an upright family like the Zhao family.
