Chapter 54 - 54: Nine-Tailed Fox
Xuanhe Hall.
Princess Chang Xi was sitting on the first seat on the left, with a smile on her face. Her lips were as thin as a cicada’s wings, and she was sipping her tea. A maid stood behind her, and on the table beside her were some rare spiritual fruits. Among them were Zhang Ronghua’s favorite black grapes. Unlike ordinary black grapes, they were very big, each as big as an egg, and contained a strong spiritual aura.
Footsteps sounded.
The Crown Prince Prince brought Qing ‘Er and Xiao’ Er into the room.
Putting down the teacup, she stood up from the chair and smiled like a flower.”Shimin.” “Aunt Changxi!”
After the small talk.
The Crown Prince sat on the main seat and waved his hand, signaling for Qing ‘er to serve him tea. He poured a cup of spiritual tea and placed it in front of her, asking,””Why do you have the time to come to my place?”
“Someone brought me a batch of rare spiritual fruits from the East Sea.
Knowing that you like to eat them, he brought some over.”
“I accept it.”
The Green Girl ordered people to take the spirit fruit away.
Princess Changxi wanted to say something but didn’t know what to say. The Crown Prince pretended that he didn’t see anything and drank his spiritual tea. If he asked a word, he would lose.
After a while.
She couldn’t sit still anymore and looked at Qing ‘er and Shuang’ er.””Can you let them out?”
“They’re not outsiders. If Aunt Changxi has anything to say, just say it! If not, I still have some urgent matters to deal with. You can sit here slowly or walk around the Eastern Palace.”
Go and close the palace door,” Princess Changxi ordered.”
The maid walked over and closed the door, standing guard outside.
The Crown Prince’s expression remained the same as he sneered in his heart. I want to see what you’re going to do!
” You should know that Wen Chen has been away for many years. All these years, he has been keeping himself clean and stayed in the residence. He rarely went out to read books and plant flowers. However, some time ago, he went out to relax and occasionally took a look on the streets. He saw a person who looked about seventy to eighty percent like him and the longing buried in his heart erupted like a spring.”
At this point, her face turned red, and she was embarrassed to speak.
However, she acted very well, giving people the impression that she was boldly pursuing love.
“As a woman, I’m too embarrassed to come forward. I want your help to facilitate this marriage.”
The Crown Prince smiled, not believing her words. Wen Chen was the Prince
Consort, his husband. However, he had died in the war against the Shang Kingdom ten years ago. Even if she really liked someone and wanted to marry the princess, she would have to go through the Imperial Clan Court and the Ministry of Rites. The process was complicated and could not be decided with just a few words. He still had to be vigilant.
Without waiting for him to speak.
Seemingly knowing what he was thinking, Princess Chang Xi continued,””l don’t have the confidence to convince the Imperial Clan Court, so I’m looking for you to help me convince them.”
“His family background isn’t good?”
“Average! I can’t meet the requirements to marry a princess.”
“I can’t do anything. It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but the rules can’t be broken!”
Princess Chang Xi’s face turned anxious. She stood up from her chair and quickly walked over, pleading pitifully,””You must help Auntie!”
Qing ‘er and Shuang’ er believed her words and were not on guard. However, the Crown Prince did not believe her. They had never interacted with each other at all, yet they suddenly found him and asked him for help. There must be something fishy going on. Not only did they not let down their guard, but thev were even on high alert. He mocked her in his heart. Was the fox’s tail
about to be revealed?
In front of him
Seeing that the situation had been decided, Princess Chang Xi’s plan was finally revealed. She attacked like lightning. Green spiritual light bloomed from her body and condensed into the remnant soul of a nine-tailed fox behind her.
With its power, his cultivation increased from the first level of the Connate realm to the first level of the Grandmaster realm. He crossed a major realm and his palm turned into sharp claws.
A vicious claw tore through the air, creating a sonic boom. It headed straight for the Crown Prince’s face, wanting to crush his head.
A sudden change.
Qing er and Shuang er’s expressions changed. It was too late even if they wanted to attack. Just as the Crown Princess ‘head was about to explode, a golden beam of light appeared out of nowhere, slashing apart her claw before knocking her onto the ground.
With a flash of golden light, he disappeared.
Qing er and the others also regained their senses and rushed forward to take down the heavily injured her.
Bang!
Hearing the sounds of fighting inside, the maid destroyed the door and rushed in like lightning.
“You’re courting death!” The Green Girl was furious.
He instantly went forward and sent her flying with a palm. As soon as she landed on the ground, she was taken down by the Flood Dragon Guard outside.
The crown prince stood up from his chair with a cold expression and stopped in front of her.”Why did you kill me?”
“Who is that person?”
“I’m asking you, not you!”
“They were all fooled by your appearance. You are more terrifying than anyone could imagine.”
“Say it! I’ll give you a quick death.”
Princess Chang Xi sneered, as if she was mocking him.” You can’t kill me, this matter isn’t over yet!”
For some reason, the Crown Prince had a bad feeling in his heart. At this time, she still dared to mock her without any restraint. Could it be that she still had other trump cards?
He didn’t understand why they wanted to kill him.
There was no conflict between the two of them, and they minded their own business.
Thinking of this…
A bold guess jumped out. His gaze was cold and sharper than a blade as he stared at her.”lt’s you!”
At this point, his people might have obtained the Voice Recording Stone. There was no need to continue pretending.
Princess Changxi sneered,” You still want to pretend now?” Didn’t you already make your move? Send someone to search for the demon dog!”
He pulled out the threads and connected the clues he had.
The Crown Prince continued,” The Loyalty Marquis is one of your men. The thing that the demon dog stole is your evidence!””
“Not bad!”
Hiss!
A chill ran from his feet to his head. He had thought of countless possibilities, but he had never thought that the mastermind behind the plot against him was not a prince, but Princess Chang Xi.
A new doubt appeared. Even if she succeeded, she was still a woman. How could she convince the public? How to get to that position?
He couldn’t figure it out! He couldn’t guess it even if he racked his brain.
However, this was not the time to ask. From what she had done before, she was shrewd and experienced. Her methods were profound and she was still fearless. She was probably hiding other trump cards. He had to kill her as soon as possible to determine this matter and then investigate in secret.
“Send her on her way!”
Qing ‘Er struck out a palm strike at lightning speed, aiming straight for her face.
A dignified and domineering voice came from outside,’”‘Stop!”
The Crown Prince didn’t say anything, so she wouldn’t stop. She continued to slap her face. Princess Changxi was shocked. She didn’t expect the Crown Prince to be so ruthless. Seeing that the situation was not good, he wanted to take her life. This time, he was really afraid. Once he died, all the subsequent means would be useless, and she wouldn’t be able to pull him down and muddy the water to achieve her goal.
In the face of life and death, he exploded with unprecedented potential. He endured the heavy injuries on his body and moved his head to the side..
