285 The Phoenix Loves to Eat Meat

“I think you’re just courting death! What if the heavens decide to send the boss here one day? Let’s see how you’ll die then!” The little girl cursed maliciously, but the saintess did not take it to heart at all. She was most afraid of was Xixi, and the second one was the Sister Yi. These two people were not in the same time and space as her now, so what was there to be afraid of?

“I’m not afraid, I’m the director! I’m the director! If you have the ability, come! Hahaha…” The saintess’ arrogant laughter echoed in the secret chamber, and the little girl held her forehead in despair.

Jiang Xi sneezed suddenly, and the emperor hurriedly asked someone to put on more clothes for her.

The emperor held a banquet in the palace, and the concubines in the palace were all very frightened. The outside world said that the emperor’s throne was about to be lost. It was said that the Northern Border had also made a move. The emperor had sent Xia Qiming, but Xia Qiming could not control the Northern Border at all. Now, the emperor was sitting on pins and needles.

!!

Jiang Xi was sitting next to the emperor, and the fiery phoenix was squatting at her feet, taking the place of the wild boar. It was gnawing on the bones with a look of enjoyment… Jiang Xi felt that he had found out the truth.

“What did it eat when it was in the west?” Jiang Xi asked the imperial preceptor. The imperial preceptor’ expression was very ugly. He glanced at the phoenix, who was gobbling down the food, and was speechless.

“Would you believe me if I said that the things that phoenixes eat are all rare things in the world and most of them are heavenly treasures? Thousand year ginseng, hundred year snow lotus, and thousand year Lingzhi…” A single mouthful was equivalent to an ordinary family’s annual expenses. Even so, phoenixes were very arrogant and difficult to get close to. Phoenixes were cold and aloof. This was a well-known fact in the west. However, at this moment, the imperial preceptor was a little embarrassed. After the phoenix had finished gnawing on the bone, it scratched Jiang Xi’s skirt with its claws. Then, Jiang Xi threw two more bones to it. The phoenix lowered its head and gnawed at the bone with peace of mind.

“When I was three years old, I roasted a phoenix. It was there at the time and didn’t stop me. Later, I gave it the remaining bones, and after it finished eating, it started to make a scene.” Jiang Xi looked at the imperial preceptor and said, “It started snatching the meat from me, but it failed. Then, it flew away angrily. Oh, by the way, it loves cumin flavor the most. You’ve been taking care of it for so many years, but you really not know that it likes meat?” Jiang Xi even began to suspect that the phoenix did not fly here every year to take revenge for the dead phoenix, but to take revenge for the bite of meat! From the moment it flipped Zhao Panpan around, she knew that this phoenix wanted to eat meat every day, but no one had noticed it.

“But isn’t the phoenix a legendary divine bird that should be absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth?” The imperial advisor was on the verge of a mental breakdown. They had fed their ginseng to the phoenix like carrots, and they had also fed their spirit herbs like weeds. They were not willing to eat any of them, but now someone was telling them that the phoenix loved the big fish and meat of the mortal world the most?

“Burp!” The phoenix let out a satisfied burp, its bird face showing a somewhat satisfied expression. The imperial preceptor had never seen such an expression in its life, probably even the saintess who had served it for three years had never seen it before!

“If the saintess knew that the phoenix was such a divine bird, she would probably go crazy with anger,” the imperial preceptor muttered.

“Have you found out where my husband is?” Jiang Xi’s fair little hand was holding the soup bowl, which was filled with the ginseng soup made by Zhao Yingying. The soup was yellow and looked very appetizing.

The imperial preceptor’s expression froze. “That… I’ve been good friends with General Zhao for many years, and his fate is different from that of ordinary people. I once told him that if he doesn’t meet the fated one, he’ll be alone for the rest of his life.” In fact, the imperial preceptor had expected Zhao Ruifeng to be alone for the rest of his life. He had planned to take Zhao Ruifeng to see the saintess when he finally gave up. However, things had changed the moment Jiang Xi appeared.

“I’m not his fated person, am I?” Jiang Xi asked. Judging from the imperial preceptor’s expression, he was probably a calculative person. The imperial preceptor did not expect that Jiang Xi would see through him. He looked embarrassed and said, “General Zhao’s fated person is the saintess. The saintess is the purest and kindest woman in the world. She cares about the world and is one of the rare women in the world. She views money as dirt, has no desires, and never kills. She has been a vegetarian her entire life. She is compassionate and admirable…” The imperial preceptor paused for a moment, and the corners of his mouth actually lifted into a smile.

“So you changed the fate for her?” Jiang Xi suddenly asked.

The smile on the imperial preceptor’s face froze. He slowly turned to look at Jiang Xi. His eyes narrowed and he felt a chill run down his spine.
