Chapter 130 Phoenix Yu Fei As soon as the contract was signed, the princess turned against him. Tao Tie was ruthlessly driven out of the hot spring and had to take a bath in the same bath with the child, the Seventh Prince. The eldest princess, Dao Xiaofeng, Qiu Wanru and the sixth princess who arrived after the contract was signed were playing happily together, without Tao Tie. The main point is to pick up what is useful and throw away what is useless. Fortunately, Tao Tie is not the most miserable one, as there is still a seventh prince at the bottom. When Tao Tie arrived at the new hot spring pool, he saw the Seventh Prince with a pair of panda eyes, floating on the surface of the hot spring with a look of despair on his face, not moving at all. There is no point in taking a hot spring bath with children. Tao Tie was too lazy to go into the water, so he just lay on the recliner and wandered around leisurely. Not long after, the Seventh Prince climbed out of the hot spring, lay down next to Tao Tie, propped up his left elbow, poked Tao Tie, shrank his head and asked stealthily: "Brother Tao, does your senior sister Fairy Nihuang usually beat you?" Tao Tie glanced at the Seventh Prince and snorted unhappily, "Why are you asking this, little brat?" "You're just a little brat."

The Seventh Prince muttered something, not disliking the title, not having the airs of a prince at all. He pouted slightly and continued to ask, "Just tell me, Brother Tao. I want to know if my sister is the only one who is so violent." The little brat really has no sense of boundaries at all. If you want to know something, you won't stop until you get the answer. The key is that he is very sweet-mouthed and keeps calling me "Brother Tao". Tao Tie sighed softly, looked into the Seventh Prince's eyes, and asked seriously, "Guess why I came here to share a bath with you?" The Seventh Prince's black eyes rolled around, and he understood. He gave Tao Tie a sympathetic look, and then said, "So your senior sister doesn't allow you to take a hot spring bath with the palace maids?" Tao Tie frowned slightly when he heard this. What the hell? and also? Take a hot spring bath with the palace maids? So that's how you got those panda eyes. If you don't learn well at such a young age, will your hair grow out completely? Seeing Tao Tie and the Sixth Princess' suspicious eyes, which were no different from before, the Seventh Prince felt a little distressed. He felt his heart tighten and his self-esteem was hurt. He shouted, "It's not like I haven't taken a bath before. Every time I went to play at Fourth Brother's place, Fourth Brother would take me with him to take a bath with a bunch of palace maids. But Fourth Brother and I were not in the same pool, and we had a lot of fun. If I wasn't afraid that my sister would know, I would have..." "Already what?" The Sixth Princess' voice suddenly came from the door. "Long time ago, long time ago, I just..." The Seventh Prince's neck shrank even shorter, and his sense of stealing became stronger. He hesitated for a long time but could not come up with any clear answer. He simply stood up, dived into the hot spring, and did not come out for a long time. The Sixth Princess didn't care about him. After all, he had some cultivation and was blessed by the royal family, so he couldn't drown. He said to Tao Tie, "Fellow Daoist Tao, I would like to ask you to accompany me and my brother to a place later. I have already told my elder sister, and she told me to come and invite you myself and ask for your consent." "Where? What's going on?"

Tao Tie did not rush to agree, but asked about the situation first. The Sixth Princess bit her lip and said in a deep voice, "Hongnong County, the ancestral home of the Yang family." After a pause, the Sixth Princess added an explanation: "My mother returned home yesterday to visit her relatives and will return to the palace tomorrow morning. My grandmother said she wanted to see Dong'er and me." Dong'er is the nickname of the seventh prince. The Li royal family of the Dayong Dynasty had a strange rule. The children of the incumbent emperor are not given a full name until they reach adulthood and are all called by nicknames. Don't know why. Tao Tie's thoughts wandered for a moment, but he immediately pulled them back together and continued to ask, "Why does Her Highness the Sixth Princess want me to accompany her?" Without clarifying this question, it would be impossible for Tao Tie to go to the ancestral home of the Yang family in Hongnong without knowing the reason. The Hongnong Yang family has a long history, is huge in size, and has great strength. There are no less than five people with great supernatural powers in the family. Is it so easy to visit the ancestral home of the top family in the Celestial Empire? If any conflict occurs, it will be easy to get in but difficult to get out. "forget it." The Sixth Princess suddenly gave up her idea and waved to the hot spring, "Dong'er, come up, we are leaving to go to grandma's place." "Oh." The seventh prince emerged from under the water, responded muffledly, went ashore lazily, dried his body lazily, and put on his bathrobe lazily. This series of actions all indicate that the Seventh Prince is unwilling to see his grandmother. Tao Tie saw nothing at all. He looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. He had no intention of speaking. Since the Sixth Princess who made the request has given up herself, why should he say more? The less trouble, the better. Not long after, the procrastinating Seventh Prince finally wrapped himself in his bathrobe and left with the Sixth Princess. After a while, Senior Sister Dao Xiaofeng walked in. "You are quite clever." Seeing Tao Tie lying leisurely, Dao Xiaofeng snorted, "It's the royal family's affairs, the affairs of the big family, don't get involved if you can, understand?" "clear." Tao Tie nodded, then asked, "Since Senior Sister thinks so, why do you want to get involved?" This is a question from the soul. In fact, Dao Xiaofeng had already gotten involved when Tao Tie had just entered the Liuxian County Missionary Academy and became a formal student. Huang Junshi's fame gradually began from that time.

Dao Xiaofeng was silent for a moment, his eyelids drooped so that no one could see his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "This is my calamity, I am bound to be involved. Instead of being passive, I might as well take the initiative and join the game, maybe I can get ahead." Tao Tie took over the conversation and asked, "Sister, how do you know that I don't think that way?" Sighing softly, Dao Xiaofeng did not continue the topic and asked, "How did you get your Taotie Visualization Method?" For those in the know throughout the Dayong Dynasty, it is no secret that Tao Tie is a stubborn stone with a leaky body, with incomplete five elements, and he relied on the ancient inheritance of "Taotie Visualization Method" to enter the Taoism and practice. This has long been spread. But what is strange is that few people know that Dao Xiaofeng is also a stubborn person with incomplete five elements, and he also relied on the "Taotie Visualization Method" to embark on the path of cultivation. Tao Tie was not told explicitly by the teacher, but he inferred it from some words and expressions. "Got it from a jade carving of a Taotie." Facing his senior sister who also had a stubborn body and was practicing the Taotie Visualization Method, Tao Tie answered honestly, and then asked, "Where is the senior sister?" Dao Xiaofeng sighed: "Not only you, but also me and Huang Junshi, that blockhead, is the same." "Teacher too?" Tao Tie exclaimed in surprise. This was something he had not known before. "Ah." Dao Xiaofeng nodded, confirming what he said. Tao Tie frowned and pointed downwards: "Is it okay to say this here?" "fine." Dao Xiaofeng casually said, "The crazy bitch Li Yunshen and the blockhead Huang Junshi have been in correspondence, so she already knew what she should know. Otherwise, why would she go to find you as soon as Qiu Wanru asked her to? Wasn't it because the blockhead Huang Junshi didn't trust me and thought I couldn't take good care of you, so he found Qiu Wanru, and Qiu Wanru introduced the crazy bitch Li Yunshen to the blockhead Huang Junshi?" This long conversation was quite confusing and convoluted, but it did explain some things clearly. But Tao Tie's focus was not on the things that were explained clearly, and he turned back: "So, Teacher and Senior Sister both found the jade carving of Taotie in Liuxian County?" "That's not the case." Dao Xiaofeng denied Tao Tie's guess and explained, "Huang Junshi is from Beijing, otherwise how could he be so familiar with Old Qiu? He picked up the mask in Beijing, and after practicing in secret, he followed the clues of the heavenly secrets and went to Liuxian County, where he stayed for thirty years." After a pause, Dao Xiaofeng put aside his hesitation and said bluntly: "In the past thirty years, the jade carving of Taotie mask has appeared once a year and was picked up by someone once, but twenty-eight of them died suddenly, and only two people came back to life and inherited it. These two people, one is you and the other is me. I have awakened the fate of Nihuang and was reborn from the ashes, what about you?" Tao Tie sat up and looked at his senior sister with some suspicion. what happened? How come this happened suddenly? Confession Bureau? This is unlike my senior sister's temperament and style, it's very strange. Just when he was suspicious, Qiu Wanru walked in and gently pulled Dao Xiaofeng in front of her. He put his right hand together to form a sword finger, drew a magic talisman in the air, and one of the talismans touched Dao Xiaofeng's brow. Dao Xiaofeng did not resist and let Qiu Wanru do whatever she wanted. Spots of fluorescent light spread out from Qiu's fingertips and floated away.

The entire hot spring pool is as dreamy as a galaxy. All of a sudden, all the scattered starlight returned to Qiu Wanru's fingertips, and as she pressed lightly, it was imprinted on Dao Xiaofeng's brow. Dao Xiaofeng's body softened, and he fell into Qiu Wanru's arms and fell asleep. His face looked quite peaceful, his breathing was steady, and it looked like nothing bad was happening. Qiu Wanru pushed Dao Xiaofeng in her arms to Tao Tie, who was approaching with concern, and walked out: "Follow me." Tao Tie picked up his senior sister horizontally and followed Qiu Wanru out of the hot spring. After walking along a corridor and going around a few corridors, they arrived outside a bedroom. During that time, not even a palace maid was seen, nor was the eldest princess. Qiu Wanru, who was leading the way, seemed to know what Tao Tie was thinking, and took the initiative to explain: "Yun Shen suddenly knew that the Third Prince had a secret conversation with Xinxi Hou for half an hour tonight, and there were some things to deal with. I asked her to dismiss the palace maid." As they spoke, the two of them entered the bedroom. Qiu Wanru asked Tao Tie to put Dao Xiaofeng on the large and soft bed, and then led Tao Tie to a small hall at the side. "What happened to my senior sister? She was fine this morning." After sitting down, Tao Tie immediately asked with concern. "nothing." Qiu Wanru replied calmly, "Just like your senior sister said, this is just her calamity, she just needs to get through it." "What calamity?" Tao Tie frowned and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help Senior Sister?" "Love disaster." Qiu Wanru's tone remained calm, "She has been involved in too many emotional ties. Even if Weiwei doesn't take the initiative to leave her and let the emotional calamity break out in advance, it will break out sooner or later." "Love tribulation?" Tao Tie's expression turned strange, and he asked again, "Even so, why did Senior Sister say those words to me just now and ask such a private question?" Qiu Wanru looked at Tao Tie even more strangely, and was very surprised: "You ask me?" "Ok?" Tao Tie was so confused that he asked, "I should know?" "It seems you really don't know?" "I really don't know." The two of them exchanged some witty riddles, but Qiu Wanru was too lazy to continue and said bluntly, "Phoenixes are a pair of divine birds. The male is 'Feng' and the female is 'Huang'. There is Nihuang and there is Danfeng, so they are born as a pair. Xiaofeng's original name was not Xiaofeng, but Xiaoxiao. The reason she changed her name to Xiaofeng is that she is naturally strong-willed and does not believe in fate. She would rather be alone as a pair than succumb to fate and marry Danfeng." Tao Tie suddenly realized, "So, Senior Sister fell into the calamity of love and lost her true nature. She thought that I, who also practiced the Taotie method, had awakened my phoenix destiny and was resurrected from the dead?" Qiu Wanru rolled her eyes at Tao Tie and said, "You think too much. She has always believed that even if Danfeng Fate exists, it should belong to your teacher Huang Junshi."

"what?" Tao Tie was a little embarrassed after making such a joke, but he didn't show it on his face. "Then... why did Senior Sister ask me that just now?" Qiu Wanru sighed, "Because just this morning, your teacher sent a letter to tell Xiaofeng solemnly that he does not have the fate of a phoenix." "Ok?" Tao Tie was confused again, "Teacher was fine and didn't mention it in the past, why did you suddenly bring it up this morning?" Qiu Wanru was silent for a moment, then let out a long sigh: "Because before Ma Weiwei left Xiaofeng, she had already taken Master Tianji as her master. The reason why she was determined to leave was because she knew that Danfeng and Nihuang were a perfect match, and both had appeared in the world, and that Danfeng and Nihuang were beginning to be entangled. Ma Weiwei wrote this down on a piece of paper, and Xiaofeng found it this morning. She was already confused by the calamity, and this time, it was even more serious." Tao Tie remained silent upon hearing this, not knowing what to say. Senior sister asked so bluntly just now, was she trying to eliminate wrong answers? Although my self-esteem wasn't hurt, it still didn't feel very good. After all, men are naturally unwilling to accept certain things. "Let Xiaofeng sleep for a while. She'll be fine when she wakes up. This is her own calamity after all. She has to get through it herself." Qiu Wanru said at this time, "Let's just wait here peacefully." "Ah." Tao Tie agreed and suddenly discovered a blind spot. The eldest princess had no problems early or late, but just when the sixth princess and the seventh prince left for the Hongnong Yang family, something happened. Is the eldest princess's problem related to the Hongnong Yang family? Those who have marriage relations with the Hongnong Yang family include not only the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince, but also the Third Prince! In fact, among the princes and princesses, the eldest princess, the third prince and the fifth prince are the main forces in the fight for the throne. The second princess and the sixth princess gave up their rights early on. The seventh prince is young and weak. The Fourth Prince is addicted to beauty, neglecting his self-cultivation, and is playful and frivolous, not fit to rule the world. The eldest princess has used certain tactics to bring the sixth princess and the seventh prince into her camp. If we can use the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince as an opportunity, not to mention gaining the support of the Hongnong Yang family, at least we can make the Hongnong Yang family not support the Third Prince, which will also be a great gain. Combined with the somewhat inexplicable invitation sent by the Sixth Princess earlier, the inclinations of Yang Tianci and his son, the fact that the Third Prince had a secret conversation with the Marquis of Xinxi for half an hour, and the fact that Ma Weiwei was the Marquis of Xinxi's legitimate daughter, Tao Tie intuitively felt that his guess might be correct. The eldest princess was planning to stir up some trouble to further undermine the relationship between the third prince and the Hongnong Yang family. It is said that scholars have dirty hearts. Compared with these people who play power games, I am far behind. However, Tao Tie expressed his understanding of this. After all, Zhang Juzheng's "Power and Strategy" fragments said: If someone offends me, I offend him. Give him what he wants you to give me.

This is equal revenge! Tao Tie thought to himself: "Ma Weiwei? New Marquis of Xi?" "There is ample time." It took me more than four hours to write this chapter.
