After finishing their martial arts practice, Qi Haoxuan took Tianmiao around the Capital City to indulge in various food and entertainnt. Qi Haoxuan led Tianmiao to taste all the delicacies in the Capital City, from the most famous restaurants to small roadside barbecue stalls. He called it experiencing life, enjoying life.
After lunch at noon, Tianmiao took a nap, while Qi Haoxuan diligently read and studied. When Tianmiao woke up, Qi Haoxuan would take her out to play. During their outings, Tianmiao frequently asked many questions. At night, Qi Haoxuan would study under the lamplight to find the answers, sharing them with Tianmiao the next day.
In this way, Qi Haoxuan’s martial arts skills and knowledge improved rapidly. The Emperor and Empress Dowager noticed this and were secretly pleased, feeling grateful to the unseen Tianmiao. Although they didn’t know whether Tianmiao’s actions were intentional or accidental, nor her purpose, her influence on Qi Haoxuan was seen as a good thing.
That day, after Tianmiao finished her nap, Qi Haoxuan excitedly spoke to her: "Tiantian, the Eldest Princess has invited us to a flower viewing tomorrow. She ntioned there would be very exotic performances, and insisted we attend. Let’s go together." Qi Haoxuan, who enjoyed fun and knew Tianmiao did too, naturally told her imdiately about this.
"The Eldest Princess specially invited you," Qi Haoxuan said gleefully.
Tianmiao smiled slightly and agreed readily. After so many days, the people behind the scenes finally made another move. Last ti, they were chased to exhaustion, but it seed they’ve recovered now.
The next day, Qi Haoxuan and Tianmiao went together to the Long Princess Mansion.
anwhile, Dong Xiao and Kong Hou went out to buy so items. Their master had instructed them to buy a lot of delicacies. Surprisingly, this small world had quite a few tasty treats.
As soon as Tianmiao and Qi Haoxuan arrived at the Long Princess Mansion, they caught everyone’s attention.
Tianmiao said nothing, rely standing there quietly, yet she drew everyone’s gaze.
The Eldest Princess looked at Tianmiao in astonishnt. Would such an outstanding woman be the demoness the Daoist ntioned? Impossible, right?
However, when the Eldest Princess saw Qi Haoxuan carefully helping Tianmiao across the threshold, her hesitations vanished. For Qi Haoxuan, who feared nothing, to be so attentive, wasn’t this what a demoness would be like? To have Qi Haoxuan enchanted and disoriented, things would definitely go wrong in the long run.
The Eldest Princess greeted Qi Haoxuan, and Qi Haoxuan introduced, "Eldest Princess, this is Tianmiao. Tiantian, this is the Eldest Princess."
"Is this Miss Tian?" the Eldest Princess said with a smile.
Tianmiao gave a slight nod, without saying much.
The Eldest Princess frowned slightly, displeased. Not offering her a formal greeting was one thing, but being silent as well? The Eldest Princess glanced towards Qi Haoxuan, but Qi Haoxuan rely smiled and said, "Tiantian is a bit shy. Please don’t mind, Eldest Princess."
"Don’t mind, it’s fine," the Eldest Princess forced a smile, but inside she was furious. What on earth did Qi Haoxuan see in such a rude girl? Clearly, he was bewitched. Her previous suspicions beca even firr.
At this ti, Tianmiao’s attention was focused on the Daoist in the Long Princess Mansion. A faint black line extended from him, linked to another place. Following this black line might lead to so discoveries.
"Prince, please co this way. Miss Tian, this way too," the Eldest Princess said with a strained smile, inviting Qi Haoxuan and Tianmiao to take their seats. As soon as they entered the hall, as the Daoist had said, once they stepped into the array, the demoness would reveal her true form!
