Nine-Tailed Fox

It's Chonghua Palace", moved his finger to the northeast corner, and pointed: "There are also here, Fuwang Pavilion, Jingqi Pavilion, Fanhua Pavilion, which one do you like? I'll let them decorate it, you are here Let’s wait here for an hour to pass.”

Yun Xiaohuo took a closer look, pointed to the Fanhua Pavilion without hesitation and said, "Let's just go here."

Xuanyuan Jin knew that he would choose Fanhua Pavilion, because it was the furthest away from the Qianqing Palace, almost on the extreme edge of the northeast corner, next to the northern city wall.But when I really heard him say it, there was another burst of lament in my heart.

"Okay, I'll let someone set it up."

"No need to decorate, I don't like your things." Yun Xiaohuo said, glanced at Yun Jing, and asked again: "Where does Jing'er live?"

Yun Jing jumped up, hugged Yun Xiaohuo's thigh and shouted, "I want to live with Daddy."

"No." Yun Xiaohuo squatted down and looked at Yun Jing seriously, "You are already eight years old, you are an older child, you can't always follow Daddy."

"No, no, I'm going to be with Daddy." Yun Jing held Yun Xiaohuo tightly, raised his head, with a pitiful expression on his face.

"Yes, Jing'er is still young, let him live with you for a while longer." Xuanyuan Jin couldn't bear it.

"Forget it, after all, you have just entered the palace, you should stay with me for a few days first." Yun Xiaohuo stroked Yun Jing's head, turned to look at Xuanyuan Jin and said, "His Prince's Palace is always needed, you should prepare it first. Let him live in a few days later."

"it is good."

Yun Jing felt helpless when he heard that, although he didn't know why his father didn't want to live with him forever, but he didn't dare to offend him, so he could only accept his fate wearily.

Fanhua Pavilion sits facing south from the north, with a square plane, two depths, surrounded by corridors on the left and right sides, and verandas on the east and west sides of the front, which are connected with the front corridor and form a semi-open small courtyard. The rockery pool in the courtyard is exquisite and small. There are also clusters of peach blossom trees.From the veranda, you can lead to the front room, or pass through the vertical flower door to the backyard. There are three rooms in the backyard, which are divided into the bright room and the east and west rooms.

It can be said that although the sparrow is small, Fanhua Pavilion has all five internal organs, and it is close to the north wall corner, far away from the center of the harem, quiet and elegant, even if it is deserted, it is Yun Xiaohuo's wish.

"It's not bad here." He finally had a smile on his face, and went straight into the Mingjian room. Looking at the simple furnishings, he nodded and smiled again, "There are no extra things, it's very good."

"No one has lived here for a long time." Xuanyuan Jin wiped the table, but luckily it wasn't dirty, "It still needs to be cleaned."

"No need." Yun Xiaohuo shook his head, "I'm a demon."

He dragged out his voice, waved his sleeves lightly, came down two or three times, red clouds floated in the room, and after they slowly dissipated, the room was bright and clean, and many of his usual tea pots and tea bowls were added. , silver basins and other utensils, and even the bed was hung with fiery red veils and pearl curtains that shone through the light.

"There are still some missing." He dragged his chin and thought for a while. After a while, there was a totem-carved silver pot boiling water on the table. heat.

Seeing that his father was actually making tea, Yun Jing was not too surprised. He jumped onto the pear blossom stool and knelt on it and waited.

"I don't need to serve people here, you sent them all to me."

"But there must be one or two people who serve or pass on a message."

"No need." Yun Xiaohuo thought for a while, and then said, "I'm a demon, and it's not appropriate to have outsiders around. Besides, you put a few court ladies and eunuchs here, so that I can't be quiet. Don't worry, if you need to send a message , I always have a solution. If you want someone to send a message in, just knock on the door three times."

"Okay." Xuanyuan Jin agreed, and hesitantly said, "Then you rest first, I..."

"Sit down, have a cup of tea before leaving." Yun Xiaohuo flipped his hands back and forth, moving like flowing water, and completed the steps of scalding the cup, high brewing, low foaming, and dividing the tea in a few strokes.

Watching him push the tea bowl in front of her, Xuanyuan Jin quickly sat down and took it flattered, smelling the tangy fragrance of the tea, she fell into a trance for a while.

It would be great if it could be like this every day.Thinking of it like this, he felt insane.

"Hey, hello!" After all, Yun Jing is a child, who doesn't know how to smell the fragrance and drink tea. He is thirsty, so he pours the tea down his throat with a grunt, which makes him stick out his tongue and wave his hand in front of Xuanyuan Jin's eyes, "You What are you in a daze for?"

Realizing his gaffe, Xuanyuan Jin smiled apologetically at Yun Xiaohuo.

"Jing'er, this is the imperial palace, you can't be so casual in the future, you have to learn the etiquette in the palace carefully."

"Don't worry, just take your time." Xuanyuan Jin loved Yun Jing very much and didn't think it was wrong.

On the contrary, Yun Xiaohuo raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Since you want to make him the crown prince, you must take the responsibility of discipline. If you want to let him be happy and happy, then you should simply appoint another crown prince, so as not to spoil him." A proud and domineering king."

Xuanyuan Jin was extremely embarrassed by what was said, Xiao Quezi hid his mouth and snickered, and stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "Master Yun, don't worry, the servant will teach the prince the etiquette in the uterus himself, and the prince will definitely not make mistakes."

"If he is not obedient, you can come and tell me directly."

"The slave understands."

"En." Yun Xiaohuo squeezed Yun Jing's hand, and said to Xiao Quezi, "You take Jing'er out for a walk first."

Little Quezi knew that the Emperor and Empress had something to talk about, so she took Yun Jing to play in the front courtyard.

After the two left, the second pot of water in front of Yun Xiaohuo was also boiled, and he poured a second cup of tea before he said, "Although you want to make me your queen, have you ever thought about how to communicate with your ministers and the world?" The common people explain that my queen is not only a man, but can also give birth to children? If you want to say that I am a thousand-year-old nine-tailed fox demon, it is even more absurd."

Everything Yun Xiaohuo said made sense, and Xuanyuan Jin had been thinking about it all the way back to Beijing, but he couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds.He held the teacup in his hand and thought for a while, before he could make a sound, Yun Xiaohuo sighed and continued, "Just say I'm a woman."

"How can that be done!"

"I'm a demon. It's not difficult to become a female body. You only need to tell the outside world that I'm not in good health and I need to cultivate more quietly. This will save me from the problem of showing up often. If something big happens, I will change." Just show up as a woman."

"But there are guards and eunuchs who have seen you in the palace..."

"When Xuanyuan Che got married to the princess of that country, didn't many people see Xiaoqing revert to his original form with their own eyes? Didn't they remember it afterwards?"

After being reminded by Yun Xiaohuo, Xuanyuan Jin remembered that there was indeed a big commotion that day. It is said that the streets and alleys had been full of rumors, but so far they have not heard a word. Even Xuanyuan Che and Leng Qing got married that day, and the scene was still very lively. Well, the common people surrounded the prince's mansion with nothing to say, and there was nothing wrong with the ministers and officials who came to congratulate him.

"I have already cast the enchantment, once the enchantment is broken, those people will naturally forget everything they should have forgotten."

"I see."

"I've seen my eunuchs and guards, just erase their memories, but I want you to talk about it with the national teacher." Speaking of this, Yun Xiaohuo seemed a little worried, her eyes fixed on Xuanyuan Jin , asked: "Have you really convinced the national teacher?"

"Of course." Xuanyuan Jin agreed with certainty.

"The old man can agree to let a thousand-year-old nine-tailed fox demon live in the palace permanently, and become the queen of the dynasty?"

"The national teacher said 'God's will', so he agreed." Xuanyuan Jin was also puzzled. He thought it would take a lot of talking, but he didn't expect the always strict and pedantic national teacher to agree directly.

Seeing that Yun Xiaohuo was worried, he quickly added: "After the Queen's Closure Ceremony, the national teacher will take the next national teacher to retreat and practice, and he will not come out in two or three years."

Although Yun Xiaohuo was puzzled, he finally felt relieved when he heard this, nodded, and said, "Cancel the empress ceremony, just say that I am not in good health after giving birth, and avoid these red tapes. Make up for it.”

Yun Xiaohuo has his own worries, how long can he stay with Yun Jing?He didn't know what to think.When Yun Jing was young, he owed him too much, and now he only hopes that everything will be fine for him.Therefore, if the child can get a firm foothold in the palace as soon as possible, and Xuanyuan Jin is in pain, he will feel at ease.

Xuanyuan Jin didn't want to force Yun Xiaohuo, seeing that he refused to carry out the grand ceremony, he complied.

The two chatted for a while, Yun Xiaohuo gathered the tea sets and issued an order to evict guests, Xuanyuan Jin Yiyi was reluctant to leave the Fanhua Pavilion, and halfway on the way, he remembered that Yun Xiaohuo loves tea now, so he hurriedly ordered Xiaoquezi to collect some high-quality new tea and send it to him Fanhua Pavilion, just now returned to Qianqing Palace with a heart.

Xuanyuan Che and Xuanyuan Bei had been waiting for him in Qianqing Palace for a long time, when they saw him coming back, they greeted him and performed the monarch and minister salute.

Xuanyuan Jin dismissed the eunuchs and maids, and only let Xiao Quezi stay with him. The three brothers rarely sat together, so they were very happy.

"Brother Huang, when will the Empress Conferment Ceremony be held?" Xuanyuan Che asked him.

"Xiao Huo doesn't like these things." Xuanyuan Jin had no choice but to say, "It's better not to do it."

"No?" Xuanyuan Che and Xuanyuan Bei looked at each other.

"If he doesn't want to do it, it's not a big deal, as long as he's happy." Xuanyuan Jin took a sip of his wine and said, "Letting him stay in the palace is already very wronged, how can we let him become a woman again?" Do you want to carry out this postscript ceremony?"

Xuanyuan Che thought about it carefully, and suddenly understood, "Because of Jing'er?"

"En." Xuanyuan Jin nodded, "How is it possible for a man to have children? If people know that he is a demon, it will be even worse."

"Could it be that from now on, he will live in the palace disguised as a woman?" Xuanyuan Bei asked.

"Not really. He chose to live in Fanhua Pavilion, which is the farthest to the northeast. No one is allowed to enter casually, and he doesn't plan to come out often." Xuanyuan Jin smiled wryly, "He will come back only for Yunjing, but that's it. already very happy
