Madam General, please run slower.
Chapter 6 The Little Princess Grows Up
Li was a little surprised when looking at the fragrant "round cakes" in front of him. Each small round cake was as big as the palm of Li's hand. Of course, it was not that the cake was too big, but that Qu Tangli's hand was too small.
This was the first time Li heard of the sweet food called Taosu. Qu Tangli had seen this kind of food in her memory, but she didn't know it was called Taosu. So when Li heard Chunmei mention this name, she thought it was some kind of pink flower. How could this flat and round thing be delicious?
Li glanced at Chunmei, who was looking expectantly at the side, and reached out to pick up a piece of peach cake, taking a small bite tentatively. The crispy and sweet aroma immediately lingered on the tip of his tongue, and it was as delicious as the candied haws! This taste that he had never experienced before made Li blink his eyes, and he quickly finished the peach cake in his hand and reached for the plate again.
Chunmei looked at the little princess' shining eyes, and her clenched hands behind her back loosened a little. She smiled and poured her a cup of tea, "Princess, eat slowly, don't choke."
Li took a sip of tea. The slightly bitter taste of the tea alleviated the greasy taste of the sweets very well. He raised his eyes and met Chunmei's reddish eyes. The peach cake that was about to be put to his mouth suddenly stopped.
"What happened to Sister Mei?"
Chunmei shook her head and chuckled, "It's nothing, I just suddenly feel that the little princess has grown up." The princess also liked to eat peach cakes before, but she always complained that the dessert was not pretty enough.
What do you mean? She was exposed? It's only been a short time. This can't be possible. Maybe this little maid is just feeling sad. Adhering to the principle of talking more and making more mistakes, Li continued to eat. Chunmei quickly adjusted her mood and stopped Li when she wanted to eat the third piece. "Don't eat any more. Eat the rest after lunch."
"Okay." Li glanced at the remaining peach cakes, took two more pieces while Chunmei was not paying attention, bit them and ran away.
"Hey!" Chunmei looked at the little princess running away with amusement and shook her head helplessly. Never mind, as long as the princess was safe and happy, that was enough.
Apparently Chunmei, who had taken care of Qu Tangli since she was a child, understood this body better than Li. The result of eating four pieces of peach cakes was that she was out of energy after just a few bites of lunch.
Li looked at the delicious and rich food in front of her with regret, and reluctantly put down her chopsticks. If she had known, she would not have been greedy. In her previous life, she lived a precarious life every day. Before the fasting, food was divided into edible and inedible for her. After the fasting, she took elixirs every day. She had not tasted the taste of meat for more than a hundred years.
Chunmei carefully wiped Li's mouth and forced the little princess, who was slumped in the chair, to take a walk in the yard to digest the food. Only when Li no longer felt uncomfortable with her bloated stomach did she let her go back to the house for a nap.
Li listened to Chunmei's receding footsteps and immediately informed the companion spirit beast in his mind, "Tanghulu, is there anyone watching this room?"
"Master, don't worry. I don't sense the presence of anyone else."
"Are you sure?"
"Master, please don't underestimate me. I am a spiritual beast! People in this wild land can't make things difficult for me." Tanghulu's tone was very proud, and Li immediately imagined a cocky kid with his hands on his hips.
Li could actually sense whether there was anyone in the room, and she asked Tanghulu just to confirm it again. After all, her spiritual power had not yet recovered, and it was better to be cautious in an unfamiliar place. After getting Tangtang's affirmation, Li let down her guard a little and came to the bronze mirror to carefully examine the body.
The familiar childish face reflected in the bronze mirror made Li's emotions, which had just relaxed, tense again. His fingertips turned white due to the force, and his slightly trembling pupils expressed his owner's shock.
Tanghulu also noticed his master's mood and asked anxiously: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Li closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths to suppress his shock. "Tanghulu, do you know why I am possessed by Qu Tangli's body? Where is my original soul? Did it reincarnate or dissipate?"
"I'm sorry, Master. When I was awake, only your spirit was inside this body. I couldn't sense where the little princess's soul had gone."
"Forget it, it's okay." Li rubbed his eyebrows, slumped down in the chair weakly, looking at the face in the bronze mirror with his thoughts flying.
She originally thought that Kui's wind formation had gone wrong and failed to destroy her soul, so by chance she accidentally took over Qu Tangli's body. But why did Qu Tangli's face look so similar to hers when she was young? If they just looked the same, it could be a coincidence, but the scar on the brow and the cinnabar mole on the earlobe, this was too much of a coincidence.
Li reached out and touched her right eyebrow. There was a light pink mark from the top of the eyebrow to the bottom of the eyebrow, which cut the complete eyebrow into two parts. The shape, position, and even direction were exactly the same as her original body.
The only difference is that the mark on Li's body is a real scar, while Qu Tangli's is a birthmark. Li's body has been injured many times, but it is not easy for cultivators to leave scars after being injured. The scar on her eyebrow was left as a warning when she failed her first mission. What about this body?
Li thought about it and took off her clothes. Her thin and slender figure was revealed in the mirror. Except for the mark between her eyebrows and the red mole on her earlobe, there were no other birthmarks or obvious scars on Qu Tangli's body. It can be said that this body was shrunk 1:1 according to her original one.
Is this a rebirth? Or is she taking over her own body? Li's mind was full of thoughts.
Forget it, forget it, if she can't figure it out, then forget it. Since this body looks exactly like hers, she won't feel any burden when using it. Tanghulu watched the owner who was still shocked and confused after stripping her clothes in the last second, and the next second he was jumping around in the house in his middle clothes.
"Master, what are you doing?" Oh my god, what should I do if the master is crazy?
"Oh, I'm exercising." Li took the time to reply to it in his mind.
Except for the moment she felt a little weak when she woke up in the morning, she felt good the rest of the time. It is said that illness goes away like a thread, and comes back like a mountain. Her ability to recover is not something that a child with a weak body can have. There are many secrets in her new body.
Since she can't use her spiritual power now, she has to improve her physical strength as soon as possible so that she can protect herself and avoid being strangled again. Oh, I'm wrong, that dog thing is not a human being. 凸(艹皿艹 )
Yu Xun, who was drinking in the restaurant, felt an itch on the tip of his nose, turned his head and sneezed, spilling more than half of the wine in his glass. The deputy general beside him quickly took away the braised meat in front of Yu Xun, so as to prevent this delicious dish from being ruined by the wine he spilled.
Shi Yaojue, who was sitting opposite Yu Xun, curled his lips slightly and waved the folding fan in his hand. His beautiful peach blossom eyes were tinged with a hint of teasing. "Brother Yu Xun's tricks to avoid drinking really make me admire him."
Yu Xun rolled his eyes at him, reached out to take the wine jug and filled the cup in his hand. He raised his head and drank it all, then turned his wrist to indicate the empty cup in his hand. He stared at the wine in front of Shi Yaojue and said in a threatening voice, "Drink!"
"Let's drink, who's afraid of who?" Shi Yaojue put away the folding fan in his hand with a "swish" sound, picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. The two of them kept pouring wine to each other like they were unwilling to admit defeat.
Deputy General Wu Mo looked left and right, and simply took the plate of meat and started eating with relish, without any intention of stopping them. Past experience and lessons told him that it was better not to intervene at this time, otherwise when the firepower shifted, two people would force him to drink together.
After three rounds of drinking, Wu Yu, with his superb experience in avoiding alcohol, became the only sober person present and ate all the delicacies on the table. Shi Yaojue, with a red face, lay on the table and played with the wine cup in his hand. His speech became slurred and he burped from time to time, "Brother Yu Xun, burp~Is it really okay for you not to go back to accompany your wife after your wedding?"
"It's just a chess piece. It's nothing." Yu Xun's situation was a little better than Shi Yaojue's. The man leaned back in his chair, his eyes a little blurry due to being drunk.
Hearing Yu Xun's blurt-out words, Wu Huang was so frightened that he covered his general's mouth, fearing that he would kill all nine generations of his clan.
"General, be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
"Got it." Yu Xun slapped his hand away and poured himself a glass of wine irritably. It would have been fine if he didn't bring up this topic. As soon as he talked about it, he couldn't help but think of the red figure huddled in the corner that morning. She was so frail and helpless that a little cold could take half her life.
The Yu family was a military family. Yu Xun joined the army when he was young and inherited his father's ambition. He should have fought passionately on the frontier, but he was imprisoned in the capital because of this marriage. He resented it. Although he knew that the little princess was also implicated, it was difficult not to vent his anger on her. He just hated every member of the royal family equally. So even though he had a few days off because of his wedding, he didn't want to go back to the general's mansion, for fear that he would strangle someone to death in a fit of rage.
The more Yu Xun thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He slammed the wine cup on the table and said, "No more drinking. Go back to sleep."
Shi Yaojue was so frightened by his action that she jumped up from the table. When she saw that they were about to leave, her mind was still not clear, and her hands instinctively reached for the purse at her waist. However, she tried for a long time but failed, and she got angry, so she grabbed the belt and tried to pull it down.
Wu Huang sighed helplessly, unceremoniously pulled off the purse from his waist, and walked out the door with difficulty, supporting one of them in each hand.
