Huangxiu

Chapter 733 Gift of Pearls
At this time, inside the Qionghua Restaurant, Li Yuzhen quickly put away her surprised look.

She knew that His Highness was about to turn hostile.

Your Highness is extremely thin-skinned and won't tolerate being made fun of.

"Your Highness, I will go then." Li Yuzhen hurriedly retreated.

Li Miaotan snorted, "Tomorrow night!"

"Yes." Li Yuzhen agreed obediently and was about to leave.

Li Miaotan suddenly frowned and looked up at the night sky outside the window.

There is a waxing crescent moon in the night sky, hidden among the silver clouds.

The stars have disappeared.

The light of the waning moon seemed exceptionally bright, turning the sky a pale silver color.

You can see a white shadow passing by in the night sky, silently.

Chu Zhiyuan, dressed in white, came through the air.

Li Yuzhen's eyes were as fast as lightning. She saw Chu Zhiyuan's figure clearly at a glance. Her face changed slightly and she said hurriedly, "Your Highness, it's the Prince Consort."

Li Miaotan was startled: "Him?"

Li Yuzhen nodded quickly and said, "The Prince Consort will be here soon."

Li Miaotan snorted and said, "What do you mean?"

"Then meet with the Prince Consort?" Li Yuzhen said, "Let's talk about the battlefield outside the domain."

Li Miaotan waved his hand and said, "Don't talk too much, I know what to do... Just pretend I was never here!"

After she said that, she disappeared into the house in a flash.

Chu Zhiyuan swooped down lightly, went through the window, and landed in front of Li Yuzhen.

He glanced around the room.

In the spacious private room, there are two sets of bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses on the round table.

"Your Majesty." Li Yuzhen clasped her fists.

Chu Zhiyuan snorted, "Where is your Highness?"

Li Yuzhen coughed lightly and said, "Has the Prince Consort seen His Highness?"

Chu Zhiyuan asked, "The person who changed her appearance just now was her, right?"

Li Yuzhen nodded solemnly: "Your Highness is in disguise, I hope you will keep it a secret."

"Are you leaving the house quietly?" Chu Zhiyuan glanced at her.

Li Yuzhen looked back at him solemnly and calmly: "I have reported this to Miss Youlan."

Chu Zhiyuan snorted, "Aunt Youlan knows that you are here to see your Highness?"

"...Of course I didn't tell Your Highness." Li Yuzhen said frankly.

Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "He was there just now, why did he suddenly hide away? Is he guilty or…"

"Your Highness!" Li Yuzhen interrupted him hurriedly. He couldn't continue speaking, otherwise His Highness would explode.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "We are already husband and wife, are you still shy?"

He never felt that he could live in peace with the Twelve Princesses, let alone love each other.

They were originally a hostile country, he was a hostage, had a very bad reputation, and the Twelfth Princess had an extremely proud personality.

All these factors combined destined the two to be a couple in name only, strangers or even enemies.

It's just a title.

What's more, the Phoenix Dynasty is different from the Jade View Dynasty, and women have a higher status.

Especially the princesses, each of them is extremely noble.

The prince consort is the weaker party.

Not only was he not allowed to serve as an official in the court, he was also not allowed to live with the princess.

Only when the princess summons you can you go to the princess's mansion to see her.

As a prince consort, he must have the best food and clothes and a noble status, but his power is extremely small.

Plus he's a proton.

Just think about it and you will know that the situation will be extremely miserable and worrying.

He has calmed down and doesn't want to think about anything else but practicing.

It would be nice to be able to have some quiet time to practice. With the Karma Stone Plate, it is no less convenient than practicing in the Great Light Peak. It would also be nice to practice in the Prince Consort's Mansion.

The prerequisite is to be able to hide away in peace and not be troubled by others.

In the Phoenix Dynasty, the Twelve Princesses were like the big trees that protected them.

He is considered a financial sponsor.

Therefore, it is best not to offend others if you can avoid it. Maintaining good relationships will also help to keep you peaceful.

Otherwise, if he lost her protection, he would be in so much trouble. As for falling in love with the twelfth princess, he had never thought about it.

He knew that he didn't even have the chance to consummate his marriage with the princess, and getting married would be almost the same as not getting married at all.

He comforted himself that this might not be a bad thing, and he didn't need to be entangled in gratitude and resentment.

But I have to say that the Twelfth Princess was quite nice to me.

They not only delivered medicine and guards, but also sent reminder messages from time to time.

Although he may have ulterior motives, the fact is that he is better than his brothers and father.

So far, except for Aunt Youlan and Concubine Hui Chu Zhen, Chu Qiao, and Chu Honglin, she has been the best to herself among the rest.

This is undoubtedly a great irony and sadness.

He still remembers this favor and plans to repay it in the future.

……

"My Lord, of course I'm not shy!" Li Yuzhen said angrily, "It's just that the timing is not right."

"When is the right time?" Chu Zhiyuan asked curiously.

Li Yuzhen said: "In our Phoenix Dynasty, women cannot meet men without permission."

Chu Zhiyuan's eyes widened: "Is this true? Isn't the atmosphere in your Phoenix Dynasty more open and generous? How could you still have such rules?"

"This is the custom." Li Yuzhen snorted, "And, Prince Consort, the women of our Phoenix Dynasty have a high status, but they are not promiscuous. On the contrary, they are more pure and self-respecting than the women of your Jade View Dynasty!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Since she can't see the man, then why did she come here..."

"Of course I have something to do." Li Yuzhen snorted, "My Lord, have you finished your errand? Do you want to go out again?"

"I won't be going out again for the time being," Chu Zhiyuan said, "A cave will be opened soon, and I will enter it."

He couldn't contain his excitement at the thought of entering the cave.

Enter the cave, encounter the demons, subdue and refine the demons, and thus increase the power of the soul.

As the power of the soul increases, the mental power becomes stronger, and the speed of practice becomes faster.

I have already reached the seventh level. Can I reach the ninth level before getting married?
If one enters the Spirit Transformation Realm and becomes a Venerable before getting married, then one can truly turn the situation around.

If I can really achieve this, will I still join the Phoenix Dynasty?

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly glanced at the window opposite: "The performance is about to begin, open the window and take a look."

"Yes."

Li Yuzhen stood up, walked with her long legs to the window on the other side and pushed it open.

From the window, you can see a high platform in the center of the patio. On the circular platform, a group of women are standing with swords in their hands.

They were wearing a layer of black veil and a black scarf, revealing only their snow-white foreheads and bright eyes.

The jade-like hands held a flawless long sword, standing in neat rows with bright eyes and solemn expression.

There was a desk behind the high platform, and in front of the desk sat a woman in white with a black veil covering her face, her slender fingers pressing on the strings of the zither without moving.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at the group of women in black veils and white clothes thoughtfully.

The Haoyang Demon-Subduing Mirror had already detected that they possessed magical powers. Even without using their powers, he could clearly feel the aura of their magical powers.

Moreover, these women have profound magical skills and have reached the state of transformation.

If these twelve women in black veils and the one woman in white veil really start fighting, I'm afraid none of the drinkers on this floor will survive.

The cultivation base of the drinkers in the Qionghua Tower is not high, and there are not many masters in the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Even in the imperial city, there aren't that many.

Li Yuzhen called the waiter over to add a jade cup, and then he filled it with wine.

Chu Zhiyuan took a sip and asked, "Why did she come here?"

Li Yuzhen shook her head gently: "I don't know."

Chu Zhiyuan glanced at her.

Li Yuzhen said seriously: "My Lord, I really don't know."

"Tell her to be careful. There is more than one demon in the cave. I encountered three last time. There may be more."

"Yes!" Li Yuzhen suddenly became serious.

Chu Zhiyuan glanced around, took out a colorful bead from his sleeve and handed it over.

Li Yuzhen was stunned.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Give her this, the soul bead, which can sense the demons."

With the Haoyang Demon-Subduing Mirror, you no longer need them.

Giving one to Li Miaotan is considered as returning the favor.

More importantly, based on Li Miaotan's personality, he would definitely get greater rewards.
