Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight

The next time I saw Xiao Fuci, someone presented a picture of a beauty to the emperor and started a beauty contest.

Xiao Fuci was selecting portraits in the Imperial Garden. He wanted to pick out some beauties that were placed by his people when suddenly there was a commotion over at the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden.

I vaguely heard them talking about mermaids.

"Mermaid?" Somehow Xiao Fuci suddenly thought of the mermaid that Yue Bai once raised. She said that since it was not of her species, its heart must be different. She would definitely not be able to protect the mermaid. If only she had understood this truth earlier.

"Sir, a mermaid was found in the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden." The guards on patrol also found it incredible. Where did the mermaid come from in the imperial palace?

Xiao Fuci had a bold guess in his mind. In order to verify his idea, he walked quickly over there and sure enough, he saw the familiar silver fish tail.

Seeing Xiao Fuci coming over, everyone hurriedly saluted him: "Master Xiao, we just found a mermaid."

As he spoke, he revealed Qi Ji who was caught in the fishing net behind him. Qi Ji also saw Xiao Fuci and immediately said, "I'm here to find Yue Bai."

Xiao Fuci originally planned to let her go, but when he heard that he was looking for Yue Bai, he immediately changed his mind and ordered: "Come here, send this mermaid to my house and take good care of her."

One eunuch wanted to speak out to stop them, but was stopped by another eunuch next to him, who gently shook his head at him.

Now all power in the court belongs to Lord Xiao, and the Jade-faced Shura is not just a name.

So Qi Ji finally settled down in the Prime Minister's Mansion. When Xiao Fuci came back, he went straight to the pool and asked, "You said you came to look for Yuebai, do you know where she is?"

Qi Ji thought for a moment and answered, "She is in the palace, in those scrolls."

Xiao Fuci was afraid that it was just another false happiness, so he looked deeply at Qi Ji, whose eyes seemed to be brewing a storm: "Are you really sure she is still there?"

Qi Ji said as a matter of course: "I have seen her, and she seems to have a problem. Sometimes she remembers me and sometimes she doesn't. She also said her name is Zhu Sha."

"Cinnabar?" Somehow Xiao Fuci suddenly thought of the painted monster in the peach forest. He did think that the painted monster looked very much like Yuebai at the beginning, but after all, the two were different, so he needed to ask Baihu about this matter.

At night, Xiao Fuci shook the bell given to him by Baihu. The sound was transmitted to the ears of Baihu, who was being stroked by Yuebai in the painting, in a way that mortals could not hear.

Baihu stood up, shook his ears and said, "Miss, Xiao Fuci is calling me."

"Go, bring him to see me." Yuebai lay back on the couch. Baihu responded and disappeared on the spot.

Xiao Fuci noticed that Baihu came later than usual today, but he didn't have time to care at the moment, so he got straight to the point: "The merman said that he had seen Yuebai before, and also said that Yuebai now thinks his name is Zhusha, and has forgotten everyone. Sometimes he is normal, and sometimes he is not."

Baihu walked around the table twice, sniffed the smell nearby, and said: "I do smell the scent of that mermaid. As for the mermaid, then that person must be the young lady of the Ji family. I think it may be the secret technique of the mermaid clan.

Tomorrow you take someone to ask her to look for it in the pile of albums in the palace. Then bring the albums back, and I will find a way to get the painting demon out. We need to conceal it when we do it, because you don't want the Xiao family to know about it and then kill it all."

Of course Xiao Fuci would be careful, as the matter concerned the life and death of his master. He said that he was now in control of the political situation, but the head of the Xiao family had never given up on suppressing and assassinating him. If Yue Bai was really still there, he would definitely protect his weak spot.

On the second day, Xiao Fuci left the court and went directly to the inner palace, which caused a lot of discussion among the court officials.

"Now Prime Minister Xiao is truly all-powerful. He can go to the inner palace whenever he wants, just like it's his own backyard."

"That's true. Now, the concubines for His Majesty are all selected by Prime Minister Xiao... I really don't know whether he is selecting for His Majesty or for himself." Another colleague said.

"Xiaguan believes that Prime Minister Xiao does not have such thoughts. After all, we all heard that he was deeply in love with the princess, but unfortunately the beauty passed away, so he broke up with his family. Such a person who is in love will not change his mind easily." The person who said this was naturally someone from Xiao Fuci's side. "Besides, the master has thunderous means. If the master knew that the two of you were gossiping here..."

The two civil servants were so frightened that they turned pale and dared not say a word. The person who spoke snorted coldly and left.

Xiao Fuci didn't have the leisure to deal with these arguments. He was holding the white tiger that had turned into a cat and walking quickly to where yesterday's album was placed.

He began to search for his familiar portrait one by one.

"Finally found it!" Xiao Fuci held the painting as if it were a treasure.

Baihu looked at the scroll and it was indeed the one that Yuebai brought. Xiao Fuci's slender jade-like fingers were stroking the eyebrows and eyes of the person in the painting with trembling and caution.

Baihu was a little sad to see the forbearance and restraint, and then Xiao Fuci asked Baihu: "Can you help me call her out later?"

Xiao Fuci knew that if Yuebai was always in the painting and didn't want to see him, he would have no choice, so he could only ask Baihu for help. He hadn't seen his wife for five years since they had their wedding.

When Baihu saw Xiao Fuci's expression, he walked up to him and motioned him to put the painting down. Xiao Fuci did as he was told and then Baihu's claws tapped on the red cinnabar mark of the signature.

Sure enough, the next second, the veiled flower demon appeared: "Why are you disturbing my sweet dreams for no reason?"

When he looked up and saw that it was his acquaintance Yue Bai, he immediately smiled and said, "So it's this young master. Have you figured it out?"

Xiao Fuci looked at Baihu, and Baihu said, "Don't the mermaids have secret techniques? Let the mermaids identify the person."

Xiao Fuci immediately had the mermaid carried out of the glass jar. Qi Ji was still cursing when he was carried in, but he calmed down after seeing Yuebai.

"Yuebai," Qi Ji leaned towards Yuebai, Yuebai pinched Qi Ji's face, and Qi Ji rubbed her dependently, making Yuebai laugh.

"Your fish is really interesting. It has been following me all the time." Yue Bai looked at Xiao Fuci again, "Why did this young master come to see me again today? Didn't I tell you that the original one had already died?"

Xiao Fuci was somewhat shaken by Qi Ji's attitude, but for a mortal, it was difficult to accept that his wife had completely changed in appearance and personality, so in the end he just brought the so-called Miss Cinnabar back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Of course, they also took the mermaid back and raised them together. After living together for a long time, they found that even though they had different appearances and personalities, Zhusha and Yuebai were surprisingly similar in some ways.
