Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight

Chapter 188: The Powerful Minister’s Painted Demon White Moonlight (36)

The emperor, knowing that Xiao Fu had dismissed the court meeting and returned to the prime minister's residence, was now very uneasy.

A young eunuch came running outside and the emperor grabbed him and asked anxiously, "Have you found out the news?"

The young eunuch said happily, "Your Majesty has found out that General Wei is going to take action against the noble families. I don't think they will do anything to Your Majesty."

Seeing the eunuch's happy expression, the emperor raised his hand and slapped him, making him roll on the ground twice. Then he cursed: "I think he is sounding the alarm for me in advance. You useless thing is still happy here. Drag him out and don't get in my way here."

Someone dragged the young eunuch away and dealt with him. The chief eunuch beside him served the emperor a cup of tea and advised, "Your Majesty, relax. After all, if Xiao Fuci dared to touch the noble family, how could he dare to touch you? It is not easy to enthrone a new monarch."

The emperor seemed to be appeased. Indeed, all his descendants had been killed by him. If Xiao Fuci wanted to support a younger prince, he would have no chance.

Just when the emperor was suspicious, Xiao Fuci actually didn't take him seriously at all. To Xiao Fuci, it didn't matter who was the puppet emperor, otherwise he would not have allowed the Xiao family to support the new emperor to ascend the throne.

Wei Yan gradually started to take action against the small families that were dependent on the Xiao family. The head of the Xiao family had received countless visiting cards during this period.

At first, he would still be patient enough to meet them, but in the end, it was too late for him to react as the power of some small families had been completely eliminated. Patriarch Xiao had always only valued interests, so he would naturally not get involved with useless allies, and thus he never met these people again.

The head of the Xiao family could see clearly that this idea must have been proposed by Xiao Fuci. It was a naked conspiracy. If the head of the Xiao family went to rescue those people, it would slowly deplete the power of the Xiao family. But if he did not rescue the Xiao family, it would be isolated by the major families in the future, and would sooner or later follow in their footsteps.

Xiao Fuci really forced the head of the Xiao family into a corner, so he started a new round of assassinations.

Seven or eight days had passed, and the head of the Xiao family was anxiously waiting for Xiao Fuci's next plan.

In fact, Xiao Fuci had no intention of taking action against him so soon, because he had to ensure Yuebai's safety first. He could no longer tolerate anything that posed a threat to Yuebai, and was afraid that he would act too hastily and make the Xiao family desperate.

What's more, it is said that the Xiao family has obtained the sacred tree. Before the whereabouts of the sacred tree is found out, the life of the head of the Xiao family must be spared.

While Xiao Fuci was planning his and Yuebai's future, Qi Ji listened to books and scented perfume with Yuebai every day, waiting for the arrival of the Ji family, and lived a very comfortable life.

Xiao Fuci knew it, but now was not the right time. Qi Ji was a trustworthy person after all, so he had no problem taking care of Yuebai Baihu, and he could also help Yuebai strengthen his soul.

But occasionally, when looking at the lights on in the main courtyard, Xiao Fuci still envied those monsters. Whether they were painted monsters or mermaids, they could always do things that were beyond human power. But he was just a human being and could only use a little power to please his sweetheart.

Just as everyone was waiting, the head of the Ji family and Madam Ji finally arrived, bringing three jade bottles, each containing some of Yuebai's soul.

After handing the bottle to Baihu, the Ji family and Madam Ji began to draw the formation. The location was chosen on Mirror Lake. In order to prevent anyone from disturbing the whole process, the head of the Ji family specially chose the center of the painting.

For them, the painting is an absolutely safe place. This is why the Ji family has never faced any threats in Huai'an, because Huai'an is a painting and they are the masters of the painting.

When the head of the Ji family brought them directly into the painting, Qi Ji jumped directly into the Mirror Lake, and his silvery fish tail splashed the water.

If before he reached adulthood, Qi Ji looked like a pet raised by Yue Bai, but now seeing his appearance no one would associate him with a pet.

Xiao Fuci held an umbrella for Yuebai to block the sunlight and helped her onto the pleasure boat. The head of the Ji family also went up with her. After they got in, they discovered that there were many people from the Ji family on the pleasure boat.

Everyone spontaneously sat cross-legged in front of the formation. At the signal of the head of the Ji family, Yuebai walked to the center of the formation, and then Baihu opened the bottles.

A few wisps of green smoke floated out of the bottle and surrounded Yuebai. It was not convenient for outsiders to be present at this time, so Madam Ji took Xiao Fuci to the bow of the boat outside, and Qi Ji happened to be there too.

Madam Ji said with emotion: "I didn't expect that after so many twists and turns, I would be back here again. When this matter is over, we will take Yuebai back with us."

"Madam, Xiaoxu will definitely treat Yuebai well in the future, not to mention that she and I are already husband and wife." Xiao Fuci said.

Madam Ji smiled with some ambiguous meaning and said sarcastically, "It's not that you don't take your engagement into consideration, but shouldn't you take my daughter's feelings into consideration? How do you know that she will still choose to grow old with you after she is resurrected?"

After saying that, Madam Ji glanced at Qi Ji in the water with a meaningful look, but Xiao Fuci said confidently: "Yue Bai and I are childhood sweethearts. Although there have been some twists and turns and misunderstandings, I have never thought of hurting her. We have already promised each other a long time ago."

"You can only have one childhood sweetheart, but you can have two childhood friends." Madam Ji interrupted Xiao Fuci and said, "To sum it up, the mermaid and my Yuebai have spent more time together. Sir Xiao, when have you ever really spent time with Yuebai?"

Madam Ji's words dealt a heavy blow to Xiao Fuci. Indeed, apart from the first two months, he was always calculating how sincere Yue Bai was towards him during those two months, so much so that even after he returned, he felt that he should not have asked to enter the court.

But he still brought it up according to the tribe's request. Although they all wrote letters to Yuebai, Yuebai rarely replied. In the end, apart from having the title of fiancé, he was indeed not as good as the mermaid.

Qi Ji heard their conversation but remained unmoved. He floated on the water and felt the fluctuations of demonic power in the pleasure boat.

After a while, the lotus flowers on the Mirror Lake bloomed one after another, and the whole world was filled with light pink lotus fragrance, and it seemed that only these lotus flowers were left in the world.

Then, a wind started to blow from the pleasure boat, and the people who were blown by it could not open their eyes at all. All they could hear was the voice of White Tiger from inside the pleasure boat: "Not good! The Heavenly Dao has discovered it and does not allow the resurrection technique to be performed."

Everyone's hearts sank when they heard this. Xiao Fuci even rushed in despite the strong wind. He knew Baihu's strength. Even Baihu was helpless. Xiao Fuci was really afraid that it would be a false alarm in the end.

After finally getting it back, I thought I could make up for the mistakes I made, but...
