Shihua changed her tone and called him dad first, which made Cheng Wang happy and he hugged her and spun around.

This greedy girl, it’s too good not to buy it.

Inspired by Shihua, several children also changed their ways of speaking.

King Cheng was so excited that he opened his eyes and saw that his cheap father suddenly had five children.

Moreover, these children are not simple. Changfeng has won the top three places in the imperial examinations. The emperor appointed him as an editor of the Hanlin Academy. Although the position is not high, entering the Hanlin Academy will give him some opportunities to hone his skills and make some connections.

If he is sent out for a few more years and accumulates political achievements, he will sooner or later be in a high position in the government.

Tingyu was his favorite. This natural military prodigy might not appear once every fifty years. He decided to personally take him to the border to train him.

Together with Qingchuan, he will surely support the border defense cause. Hehe, he still has a little selfishness. Once the two generals come out, he can spare some time to accompany Yunniang more.

Finally, he got the beauty, and he wanted to make up for all the good happiness he had missed, and double it.

It’s not quite the same as finding You, but it’s also a good thing to have him by my side and enjoy the happiness of family.

……

half year later.

That day, Aruo lazily got up as usual and put on her makeup in front of the mirror. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. Her heart felt as if someone was squeezing it hard. Death would be more comfortable than this.

Her beautiful fox-like eyes gradually turned red, emitting an enchanting and strange red light.

She held her chest tightly, endured the pain, and prostrated herself towards the wisp of black air that passed by her.

"Please have mercy on me, my lord. I will not delay any longer. I will complete the task immediately."

The black gas swirled like a small whirlwind. After Aruo finished speaking, it was quite satisfied and swirled away again.

Aruna's heart, which had been squeezed to the point of bursting, finally recovered a little.

She was originally a little fox who practiced in a mountain stream. Perhaps because of her limited spiritual roots, she should have transformed into a human form hundreds of years ago, but she was stuck there and could not make any progress.

It was another full moon night. She breathed in and out towards the moon, absorbing its essence and gathering spiritual energy to break through.

Suddenly, a burst of black air covered the bright moon, and a demonic but weak voice came to my ears, "Little fox, let's make a deal. I will help you transform, and after you transform, you only need to do one thing for me. How about it?"

She wanted to transform so badly that she agreed without hesitation.

The black color did not disappoint her. As soon as she said the yes, a streak of black went straight into her forehead.

When the black gas entered his body, Aruo felt a burning sensation all over his body, so hot that his whole body seemed to be melting.

She wouldn't die just like that! She felt a little regretful for agreeing to the deal.

She didn't know how long it had been, but when she woke up, she saw that her originally hairy hands and feet had become smooth, white and delicate.

Ah! These are human hands and feet. Could it be that she has transformed?

Hiding her excitement, she ran to the stream.

Sure enough, a small, delicate and extremely beautiful human face was reflected in the clear stream water.

Success, success. She finally succeeded in transforming.

She jumped into the stream and used the cool and clean water to wash away the loose hair on her body, becoming a real little vixen.

The black energy did not make her do things for him immediately, it seemed to have disappeared.

She was also happy with her leisure time, and continued to practice in the stream every day.

She didn't know how many years had passed, but on this day, she finally received the task that the black energy asked her to do.

Go and kill a little baby.

At the same time, the black energy also pointed out to her that a young man would come here, and if she could find a way to follow him, she would be able to find the baby.

At the Marquis' Mansion, she saw her target, who was indeed a soft and adorable baby. She couldn't bear to kill him.

But when this thought came to her mind, her heart felt like it was being controlled by someone, painful and depressing, a life worse than death. She didn't dare to have this thought again.

Soon, she found an opportunity, but the powerful spiritual power in the ancestral hall ruined her plan.

The little baby was protected by the spiritual energy, so it was difficult for her to harm him.

Inadvertently, I found out that the spiritual energy protecting the baby actually came from the ancestor of the Xiahou family. The ancestor of the Xiahou family was very strong, but he could only stay in this house.

She thought of a way to get the baby away, thinking that she could finally complete the task this time.

But not long after, the little baby had more helpers around him. Especially the ancient monster Jiuying, she was not someone she could deal with.

She hid in the marquis's mansion and lay dormant, hoping to find another opportunity. Fortunately, the black air did not appear again, and she lived a peaceful life.

But today...

She knew she couldn't escape, so she had to go ahead.

At night, just as she was about to go out, there was an inopportune knock on the door.

"Aruo, open the door, I know you are here."

It was Xiahou Wenyuan. Aruo frowned. This damned fellow came at this very moment, not earlier or later.

When it was opened, Xiahou Wenyuan was drunk, holding a wine jug in one hand.

Xiahou Wenyuan sobered up when he saw Aruo's attire. "Aruo, what are you going to do dressed like this?"

Aruo realized it belatedly. She didn't want to argue with the drunkard, so she just said, "What are you doing?"

With her ability, Xiahou Wenyuan couldn't stop her at all. She didn't want to stay in this mansion anymore, and she wasn't afraid of offending him.

But the next moment, Xiahou Wenyuan raised his hand to stop him, and Aruo tried several times to get out but failed.

A'ruo was secretly shocked. When did this damn guy become so strong? Or was he strong to begin with, and he had been playing the pig to eat the tiger.

"Evil spirit, don't even think about hurting the God with me here."

It was an unfamiliar voice. When she looked again, Xiahou Wenyuan had already swung his fist at her. The force was beyond her imagination, as if he wanted to kill her with one punch.

Damn, no, ancestor Xiahou is possessed by a dead ghost.

Aruo did not dare to be arrogant, so he cheered up and fought with Xiahou's ancestor.

During the fight, the burning candle was knocked over onto Aruo's carved bed.

The silk quilt on the bed was flammable, and the fire started in no time.

The mansion had been unmanaged since Lu Meimei's death, and the servants' monthly wages had not been paid for a long time.

Seeing that the mansion was about to fall, the servants were certainly not willing to stay and be buried with it, so they went in groups of three or two, took the mansion's property and went to look for the next home.

There are only a few people left in Hou Mansion now, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled, with nowhere to go.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the old, weak and sick people were simply unable to put out the fire.

When the fire spread to Rong Xi Tang, everyone had already fled, leaving only old lady Xiahou, screaming miserably in the raging fire.

By the time the neighbors discovered the fire, it was already beyond extinguishing.

Fortunately, the fire only burned the marquis's mansion and did not affect the surrounding neighborhoods.

When the fire was over, Jingzhao Yin sent people to check. The mansion had been burned to ashes, but Xiahou Wenyuan, the Marquis of Loyalty, was found dead not far from the fire, and next to him was the corpse of a giant fox.

The Marquis' Mansion was defeated.
