Chapter 62 — Sleeps on the Same Bed (1/2)
The armrest under Feng Lingran's hands was crushed into pieces. Wan Siyu shrinked away in fear, fortunately he wasn't that armrest, otherwise he would had been dead by now!
”Ling Ran, You… You… Don't be sad, isn't it just a little fox? Next time… I'll get you a new one, it would be even more beautiful and cuter than that one.”
Pieces of the broken wood fell from Feng Lingran's palm, his beautiful face was coated with a layer of ice. Ebony eyes shifted onto Wan Siyu's face, making him lower his head in guilt.
”Even if you gave Ben w.a.n.g a better one, it is not the one that Ben w.a.n.g wants.”
Wan Siyu raised his head and stared at Feng Lingran. It can't be? Feng Lingran wanted to…
”If Ben w.a.n.g had remembered correctly, next month would be the birthday of Nanling's Emperor. Ben w.a.n.g haven't been to Nanling for a long time. So in this trip, I could also look for the little fox and see whether if it's -just like what you'd said… having a wonderful time.”
Wan Siyu's heart was shocked, this was exactly what he thought would happen… F**k, if Feng Lingran really did find that little fox, and it snitched on him, wasn't he finished?
The more Wan Siyu thought about it, the more afraid he was.
Nanling, East Palace
Ji Yunxue observed the tall figure of Nan Gongyin standing by the lotus pond. His hands were placed behind his snow white robes as it fluttered in the wind. He was better than all the beautiful scenery here.
Ji Yunxue couldn't bear to destroy this picturesque image, but she still gracefully walked to Nan Gongyin. She had thought that he was admiring the flowers, but when she saw the 'ravaged' lotus flowers, she was a little surprised.
”Your Royal Highness, how was this pond's lotus leaves destroyed?”
Ji Yunxue stared at the lotuses in pity. The 'White Fairy' and the 'Blue Water Lily' were a precious species of lotuses. In Nanling, only the Royal Palace planted them, it was such a shame, for them to be destroyed like this.
Nan Gongyin recalled what the little fox had done to the pond that night, his lips curved into a slight arc, ”A cute little thing.”
Ji Yunxue stared at Nan Gongyin's smile, her whole soul seemed to be drawn towards him. A cute little thing? Ji Yunxue thought of the little fox who broke into the courtyard just to listen to her play the guqin. Was it that little fox who had destroyed the lotuses in this pool?
How much did Nan Gongyin cherish the little fox? It had destroyed such precious lotuses, yet he showed an indifferent smile? And even then, his smile contained a trace of love.
Ji Yunxue remembered her purpose of coming to the East Palace and suddenly found it a bit difficult to talk about. Nan Gongyin treasured the little fox so much, was he willing to give the Huo Yi Gra.s.s to her?
But if he don't give it to her, then big sister…
Ji Yunxue thought of Imperial Consort Ji's methods. Gripping the corner of her clothes, she spoke with a warm demure. ”Your Royal Highness, I have a request to make.”
Nan Gonyin's gaze only feel onto the beautiful face of Ji Yunxue now. ”Miss Ji, please speak.”
Ji Yunxue made eye contact with Nan Gongyin's dark eyes. Her heart trembled, her fingers tightened before she suppressed her restless emotions, ”Don't know if Your Royal Highness had seen the little fox coming back with the Huo Yi Gra.s.s in it's mouth?”
Nan Gongyin's eyes flashed surprised, Huo Yi Gra.s.s?
Ji Yunxue noticed his surprise and immediately knew that he was not aware of the situation. But big sister had already confirmed that it was a little fox that stole the Huo Yi Gra.s.s. Coming to the East Palace, she must retrieve the Huo Yi Gra.s.s so she could prevent any conflict that might spark between her sister and Nan Gongyin.
”Your Royal Highness, this is just my request to you. The little fox had sneaked into the Imperial Consort Ji's backyard, and ruined her medicine field. The most important herb -the Huo Yi Gra.s.s, was also missing. Asking Your Highness to allow me to take the Huo Yi Gra.s.s from the little fox back to Imperial Consort Ji Niang Niang.”
Nan Gongyin knitted his eyebrows, what did the little fox want the Huo Yi Gra.s.s for?
Ji Yunxue waited for a moment before Nan Gongyin finally responded.
”What Miss Ji said wasn't right. The little fox always sleeps with Ben Gong, if it went out, wouldn't Ben Gong know?”
Ji Yunxue's jaw dropped, she stared at Nan Gongyin in shock, he… and the little fox sleeps together?”
But very quickly, Ji Yunxue shook her head and said, ”The little fox only sleeps in it's nest. It is very possible for it to sneak out when Your Royal Highness is resting.”
Nan Gongyin nodded. Ji Yunxue breathed a sigh of relief, only to hear him say:
”The little fox and Ben Gong sleeps on the same bed.”
After he finished, he walked away from the dumbfounded Ji Yunxue.
Six Story Pill PaG.o.da.
Because the little fox knew where the traps were, she easily came to the fifth floor. All of a sudden, she sneezed three times, even her back seemed be a little cold. She lifted her front paws and rubbed her nose, which insidious villain was cursing behind her back?
Wait until Fox comes out. Don't let fox catch you -otherwise, you'll be sorry.
The little fox raised her head and glanced at the steps towards the sixth floor. As long as she had pa.s.sed this level, she could obtain the Jin Pill and become human.
The little fox was somewhat excited, she rushed up to the sixth floor in one breath. But the moment her paws stopped, an arrow abruptly flew out from the darkness and almost hit her. The little fox was so scared she fell backwards and rolled straight down the steps.
Her whole head felt dizzy, in her sight were dancing little stars.
