The sickly fox demon is not easy to tease

Nan Xingchen pulled her grandfather to sit down and vividly recounted some of her adventures, of course focusing on the fact that she had broken through to the level of Spirit King.

Finally, she said very seriously: "Grandpa, if Xing'er goes out again, please don't worry about her. I promise to write you a letter in a few days to let you know my situation. I will also make myself stronger to protect Grandpa and the Nan Palace."

"After going out this time, I realized that no matter how good it is outside, it is not as good as my own home. You are my most precious relative. You must take good care of yourself and don't let Xing'er worry."

Nan Lijun was moved and wanted to cry, but he held back. He felt ashamed to cry in front of his granddaughter.

He raised his hand and rubbed Nan Xingchen's head, and said with relief: "Grandpa's granddaughter has grown up. I'm afraid that even if grandpa wants to keep her, he can't."

"Grandpa, what are you talking about?" Nan Xingchen burst into laughter.

She took out a lot of money from her storage ring and put it on the table: "Grandpa, I was just about to discuss this with you. I have already made an engagement with Su Muwei. This is his way of showing filial piety to you. Also, he has fallen out with his family. If I marry him, can I live in the Nanwang Mansion in the future?"

Nan Lijun clapped his hands happily when he heard this: "Okay, grandpa doesn't want you to get married. You can stay in the mansion and accompany grandpa all the time."

After saying this, Nan Lijun couldn't hide her inner excitement and burst into tears.

Nan Xingchen took out a handkerchief to wipe his tears and jokingly said, "Why are you crying again, old man?"

Nan Lijun wiped away his tears and felt a little embarrassed. He said, "Xing'er, Grandpa is so happy. My precious granddaughter is now a Spirit King. She is worthy of being the daughter of Cailuo and Jingchuan. If they are still alive in heaven, they should also feel gratified."

Nan Xingchen sensitively grasped the meaning of his words and asked in confusion: "Grandpa, what are you talking about? Have my parents passed away?"

Nan Lijun coughed lightly guiltily, wondering how he had let the secret slip.

He frowned and said, "They have been out there for so many years without coming home. What's the difference between that and death?"

"That's right. Dad and Mom are so unfilial. Xing'er will be filial to you in the future."

Nan Xingchen said with a smile, raising his hand and starting to massage Nan Lijun's back.

Nan Lijun narrowed her eyes slightly and enjoyed Nan Xingchen's cute behavior very much.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Where is that stinky boy from the demon clan? He kidnapped you for so long, is he too embarrassed to come see me?"

Nan Xingchen: ...

What is this? It sounds so ugly...

How come these words have changed their meaning in the old man's mouth?

Nan Xingchen's face darkened slightly, and he said confidently, "Grandpa, this time Su Muwei and I went out with your permission, so why are you talking like that?"

Seeing that his granddaughter was angry, Nan Lijun hurriedly said, "Grandpa said the wrong thing without thinking. Does that demon boy dare to come to see me? Does he need you to propose to him?"

Nan Xingchen choked.

She immediately changed the subject and said, "Grandpa, I heard that King Xun of Chu issued an edict to marry my aunt. Is it true?"

Nan Lijun was in a bad mood. Su Muwei said that since it was the Demon Lord's matter, it would be better to talk about it later.

boom--

Nan Lijun slammed the table in anger and shouted, "Bullshit, the current king is bullshit."

Nan Xingchen had never seen Nan Lijun so angry before, so he asked hurriedly, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Nan Lijun's deep eyes were filled with a hint of coldness, and he said in a deep voice: "Xing'er, the situation in Dayu Kingdom is about to change. Since half a month ago, King Chu Xun's temperament has changed drastically. He has become bloodthirsty and murderous, and has killed more than half of the officials in the court. The entire Dayu Kingdom is now in a mess, and everyone is in danger.

This prince is not convinced and wants to lead Xingyu to rebel. Xingyu now has a large army, and King Chuxun is afraid of the Nan Palace. He wants to marry your aunt, but in fact he wants to detain Qingru in the palace as a hostage. "

Nan Xingchen pinched his fair chin and thought for a while: "Why did King Xun of Chu suddenly become so stupid? Could it be that he was possessed by some demon?"

"Anyway, if that brat dares to come and rob me, I will kick him to death. How can he humiliate my Nan Lijun's daughter?"

Nan Lijun became more and more excited as he spoke, spitting out saliva, and it was obvious that he hated King Xun of Chu.

Nan Xingchen looked at his grandfather. The old man looked haggard, but when he mentioned King Xun of Chu, he gritted his teeth in hatred and his face flushed.

As long as it could cheer him up, it would be a good thing after all, so Nan Xingchen listened to his chatter with great interest.

When he became too emotional, Nan Xingchen hurriedly patted his back to help him calm down.

When his throat was hoarse from talking, Nan Xingchen hurriedly poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him.

Before he knew it, an hour had passed and Nan Lijun finally vented his inner dissatisfaction.

Turning to look at Nan Xingchen, who was sitting lazily with her chin propped up, he frowned and shouted, "Look at the way you sit. How can you look like a lady from a noble family?"

Nan Xingchen rolled his eyes at him and said with a smile, "I learned this from you. How dare you teach me a lesson?"

Nan Lijun followed her gaze and looked down, only to find that one of his feet was actually on the table. This posture was extremely rude and wild.

Nan Lijun was startled, and he quietly retracted his foot, covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and said seriously: "I am a grown man, and I once led troops to fight in wars when I was young. It is harmless for me to behave a little rudely."

Changing the subject, he continued, "Xing'er, you are different. You are the daughter of the Nanwang Mansion. You must behave appropriately..."

Nan Lijun spoke a lot of righteous words.

Nan Xingchen's head was about to explode after hearing this, and she quickly interrupted him: "Grandpa, Xing'er knows. Can't I slowly change in the future?"

Before Nan Lijun could respond, she added nonchalantly, "Grandpa, don't have such high expectations of me. Xing'er will never be able to be a lady like aunt in her lifetime."

Nan Lijun blew his beard and glared at her: "You can't be a lady from a noble family, so you can just be a rascal monkey!"

Nan Xingchen curled her lips and said aggrievedly: "Grandpa, I have serious reason to doubt that I am not your biological granddaughter. How can a biological grandfather belittle his own granddaughter like this?"

Nan Lijun stroked his beard and looked at her, smiling without saying a word.

Nan Xingchen restrained his distracted look, sat up straight, and suddenly asked: "Grandpa, where are Auntie and Xingyu?"

When Nan Lijun heard this, his body froze, and even the smile on his face seemed to freeze.

There was silence for a while.

He spoke slowly, "Xingyu has not returned from the palace for many days. Your aunt is in Luoyou Pavilion. King Xun of Chu suddenly issued that edict. Your aunt felt that it was an insult to her and was unwilling to come out. She locked herself in the room all day long."

After he finished speaking, he pursed his lips, hung his head, and returned to his gloomy and decadent look, looking a lot older.

Nan Xingchen's eyes grew colder. "Could it be that Xingyu is under house arrest in the palace? King Chu Xun wants to use this as a threat to force my aunt to marry him?"

"That's right, so this is a tricky matter."

Nan Lijun's expression became more and more solemn. Finally, he held Nan Xingchen's hand and advised: "Xing'er, although grandpa is reluctant to leave you, the entire Great Domain Kingdom is now in danger. If a fight breaks out, grandpa is afraid that he can't protect you. Why don't you go out and hide with that kid from the demon clan for a while!?"

Nan Xingchen was instantly annoyed when he heard this: "Grandpa, what are you talking about? Xing'er has grown up and doesn't need your protection. I still have to protect you and the Nan Palace."
