Fu Yuanxiao is not afraid of ghosts, but of dogs. A wolf mastiff looks very similar to a dog, and its eyes glow green in the dark, making it look very much like a wolf.
She watched the huge thing walking towards her step by step, and she didn't even have a place to hide.
With no other choice, Fu Yuanxiao suddenly remembered the talisman. Regardless of whether it was useful or useless, he would use it first.
She took out a talisman and thought about what talisman to recite.
After thinking about it for a long time, she didn't expect it to be able to deal with the wolf mastiff. If it was a dead thing, she wouldn't be afraid.
But it is a living thing.
Seeing the wolf mastiff getting closer and closer, Fu Yuanxiao felt that it would pounce on her in the next second, bite her neck, and then break it.
I don't think it's okay, but my legs get numb just thinking about it.
"Xue Yun!"
When Xiao Ji came out, she saw Xue Yun walking towards Fu Yuanxiao. She was still wearing the red clothes from the afternoon and looked particularly conspicuous under the lantern.
Xueyun Wensheng looked away and saw Xiao Ji immediately became more docile and ran towards him.
Fu Yuanxiao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Ji. He had scared her to death just now.
When she walked towards Xiao Ji, she saw the wolf mastiff also walking over, so she didn't dare to go over.
Xiao Ji strode towards Fu Yuanxiao without even looking at Xueyun. He strode to Fu Yuanxiao and looked her up and down, "Are you okay?"
When Fu Yuanxiao saw him approaching, the corner of his mouth raised a beautiful curve.
"I'm fine, I was just scared by it."
Xueyun raised her huge head and watched the owner walk by without looking at it, and she suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Both of the green eyes were dimming a lot.
Xiao Ji looked at Xueyun coldly and asked in a cold voice: "Xu Yan, what's going on?"
Xu Yan heard the sound and hurriedly came over. When he saw Xueyun, he was also a little curious. He looked at Xiao Ji and said, "Your Majesty, my subordinates asked Xueyun to be placed in the backyard. I don't know how he ended up here."
Xiao Ji glanced at Xue Yun. He had picked it up when he was hunting in Qiu Wei three years ago and brought it back to his home. Its snow-white hair was silkier than fox hair. It stood upright and exuded a kingly look. The breath is like a noble king.
The fighting ability is very powerful. He once saw Xueyun kill four tigers with his own eyes.
Xueyun is very smart and can understand the meaning of his words, and sometimes also discerns the meaning of his eyes.
It is not difficult to guess that it escaped on its own.
"Get a rope and tie it up."
Xu Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Xueyun had been raised in the house for three years and had never tied the rope. Now he would be unhappy if he tied the rope.
He looked at Xiao Ji hesitantly, "Your Majesty, isn't this good?"
Xiao Ji glanced at Xueyun, "It scared Xiao'er."
Xu Yan had no choice but to find the rope.
But when the rope was found, Xueyun ran away before he even got close. It was obvious that he had resisted being tied to the rope earlier.
Xiao Ji also guessed it, but if it wasn't tied down, Fu Yuanxiao would definitely be scared if he was timid.
"Go get it back."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xu Yan caught up with the rope.
Fu Yuanxiao looked at this scene and was a little confused. She knew that being tied would restrict Xueyun's freedom, but if she was not tied, she would be too afraid to come to Xiao Ji.
After careful consideration, she selfishly wanted to tie Xueyun up.
Xiao Ji looked back at Fu Yuanxiao and said with relief: "Xiao'er, it's okay. You don't have to be afraid when Xueyun is tied up."
Fu Yuanxiao nodded, "Yeah."
Xiao Ji led Fu Yuanxiao into the study. There were several candles burning inside, but the light was still not bright enough.
Fu Yuanxiao took a curious look at the thing on the desk and found it was a map. He was a little curious and asked, "What are you doing looking at the map?"
Xiao Ji sat down on the chair, looked at the map in front of him and said, "I am going to suppress bandits tomorrow, so I will look at some maps to understand the terrain."
"Oh." Fu Yuanxiao thought that Pan Mingzhang was killed by bandits. If it weren't for bandits, Pan Mingzhang and Luo Xiu should be able to be together.
Seeing her lowering her head and saying nothing, Xiao Ji asked, "What's wrong?"
Fu Yuanxiao shook his head, "I'm fine. Is your husband going to be busy late?"
"Well, I'll be a little busy fighting bandits tomorrow."
Fu Yuanxiao thought that tomorrow would be the day when she would have her birthday. Xiao Ji would be so busy that he would not have time to celebrate her birthday.
"The man should rest early, and I will go back first."
Fu Yuanxiao came up to Xiao Ji, kissed him on the cheek, and then walked out with cheerful steps.
Xiao Ji sat in front of the desk and watched Fu Yuanxiao go out. He raised his hand and touched his face. There was still residual warmth there. He smiled when he thought of Fu Yuanxiao's innocent face.
The next day, before dawn, Xiao Ji led people out of the city.
When Fu Yuanxiao was having breakfast, he heard Baozhu say: "Your Majesty went out early in the morning. I wonder if I can make it back today."
Fu Yuanxiao bit into the meat buns, still looking forward to Xiao Ji coming back today.
After breakfast, Fu Yuanxiao went to the garden to enjoy the flowers. In spring, hundreds of flowers bloomed. Unfortunately, there were too few varieties of flowers in the yard, and the lights in Xiao Ji's study were a bit dim. She should have bought some ram's horns.
"Baozhu, please ask someone to buy some ram's horn lanterns and put them in the prince's study."
As soon as Baozhu heard about the ram's horn lamp, it was very expensive, but he ordered someone to buy it.
Ram-horn lanterns could only be used in the palace. Until a year ago, private use was not allowed.
Candles are more expensive than oil lamps. Ordinary families use oil lamps, while only wealthy families use candles.
The most commonly used items in the palace were candles, and not a single ram's horn lantern was seen.
But you can still buy it if you have money, but it’s expensive.
Later, Fu Yuanxiao told Xie Chi, "Go to the flower market and buy some beautiful flowers."
"Yes." Xie Chi went to Baozhu to get a silver note to buy flowers.
Although he didn't know what beautiful flowers looked like in Fu Yuanxiao's eyes, he knew what flowers were in Fu's house, so he just bought them accordingly.
The weather is getting warmer and there are already bees collecting honey in the garden.
Fu Yuanxiao was admiring the begonia flowers when a sweet laughter suddenly came from behind him, "Hey, isn't this the princess? Why do you have the leisure and elegance to come out to enjoy the flowers?"
Fu Yuanxiao turned around and saw An Huiru behind him. She was wearing a bright red makeup that matched her clothes and was a little darker than usual.
The golden steps on her temples swayed from side to side as she walked, but they did not lose their grace.
“Can’t you appreciate flowers without leisure and elegance?”
An Huiru chuckled upon hearing this and said, "What the princess said is that blind people can also appreciate flowers."
"A blind man can appreciate flowers, so you don't need to keep your eyes, just dig them out."
An Huiru turned around and saw Fu Yinshuang standing there. She had seen her briefly before and recognized her as Fu Yuanxiao's eldest sister.
Fu Yuanxiao saw Fuyang City coming, carrying a food box in his hand, so he brought her something delicious without asking.
"Sister, you are here."
Fu Yinshuang walked up to Fu Yuanxiao with a smile, "Well, come here to see you, and then celebrate your birthday."
Fu Yuanxiao was a little surprised when he heard this, "Sister, remember that today is my birthday?"
Fu Yinshuang smiled and said: "Of course, I am your eldest sister, of course I remember."
