Chapter 86 Pets

Seeing Wu Tianjiao's stammering and embarrassed expression,

everyone felt strange. Xiao Qionghua nudged Wu Tianjiao's lower back with her elbow, reminding him

not to say this or that, unsure of what he was saying.

The Heavenly Spirit Mother was also flustered, standing up with her heart pounding as if a deer were leaping in her chest. Her face

flushed even more, and she lowered her head, feigning composure, saying, "No...no need...so polite!"

This was completely nonsensical. Yang Yumei, the Soul Refining Consort, couldn't help but laugh, saying,

"What's wrong with you all? Master Aunt, the Heavenly Pride Prince Consort is toasting you, not bowing! Hey! Master Aunt!

Why is your face so red? Like a red cloth!"

Her words only made things worse; the Heavenly Spirit Mother's face burned, even her fair skin turned red, and she was so

embarrassed she almost turned and ran away. Fortunately, Wu Tianjiao regained his composure and said, "Holy Mother, Tianjiao toasts you!"

The Holy Mother of Heavenly Spirit glanced shyly at Wu Tianjiao, raised her cup in response, and drank a cup with him.

The atmosphere at the banquet was quite awkward, but the hostess, Princess Wude, was adept at communication, warmly inviting everyone to dine and

chatting, gradually brightening the atmosphere.

At this point, Wu Tianjiao's heart gradually calmed down. The expected "interrogation" did not occur,

and he couldn't help but change his opinion of Princess Wude, wondering, "Is she really trying to resolve our feud?

Or is playing some kind of trick?"

The protagonist of tonight's banquet was undoubtedly Wu Tianjiao. The women seemed intent on getting him drunk, frequently

toasting him and exchanging cups. Unable to refuse their hospitality, Wu Tianjiao accepted all offers. He had already drunk quite a bit, and

after a dozen more cups, his fair face became flushed, adding to his masculine charm, deeply attracting

the women present, who were captivated by him.

The alluring Yang Yumei, the Soul-Refining Consort, loved to dress up. Sitting next to Lady Nightingale, she noticed Lady

Nightingale 's peacock-patterned dress and, intrigued, couldn't help but ask, "Madam, where did you

buy this dress? It's so beautiful!"

Lady Nightingale chuckled, quite pleased with her own attire, and replied with a smile, "This

dress was made by my own hands; you can't buy it in the market!"

"I made it myself!"

Yang Yumei exclaimed in surprise. "So Madam can make clothes too! I never knew you were so skillful.

This dress..." She paused for a moment, then said, "It looks like a court dress from the Peacock Dynasty?"

Lady Nightingale didn't deny it, but nodded slightly and smiled, saying, "You're right. This is indeed

a court . I made it exactly according to the style of the Peacock Dynasty's court dress. But compared to the real

court dress from the Peacock Dynasty, this dress has fewer fussy details; it's a simplified version of the Peacock dress!"

Their conversation attracted the attention of everyone present. What woman doesn't love beautiful clothes?

Almost was a noblewoman, and their daily lives revolved around makeup and clothing. Undoubtedly, Lady Nightingale's

peacock dress was very unique and would be very popular with women.

However, Princess Wude was concerned with something else, smiling as she said to Lady Nightingale, "Since you can make

peacock robes for the Peacock Dynasty, you must have lived there?"

Lady Nightingale smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right! My hometown is in the Peacock Dynasty. To be

honest , Your Highness, my mother and grandmother were both court seamstresses in the Peacock Dynasty. I

learned my skills from my mother when I was young!"

Hearing this, everyone suddenly understood. Princess Wude asked in surprise, "Then how did you come to my

Divine Eagle Empire? And..." She glanced at Xiao Yunhua and her sister, as well as Xiao Yuehua, and then stopped speaking.

But everyone knew what she was going to say!

Alas! Lady Nightingale sighed softly, her expression instantly turning somber. She said sadly, "To be honest

, Your Highness, my father was also an official in the Peacock Dynasty, but he offended powerful figures in the court, his family was raided, and

he was imprisoned. I ..." As she spoke, her eyes reddened, and she seemed about to cry.

Oh! Princess Wude's expression changed, and she sighed, "So that's how it is! Forgive my intrusion, I've stirred up your

painful memories! My apologies!"

Everyone present was astute; they understood after hearing only half of what was said. Princess Wude had witnessed all sorts of power

struggles in officialdom, and had seen countless unfortunate officials meet tragic ends. The children of these unfortunate officials

were implicated, enslaved, or even sold into brothels.

The officialdom of the Peacock Dynasty was exactly the same as that of the Divine Eagle Empire, and Princess Wude knew its darkness and the cruelty of

its struggles . She had also heard of Lady Nightingale's background. Eighteen years ago, Lady Nightingale was the most beautiful courtesan

in the capital, the most famous courtesan of Liuxiang Pavilion. Then she suddenly disappeared without a trace, only to be discovered four years ago by the Prime Minister's wife.

It turned out she had been kept as a mistress by the Prime Minister, and had even given birth to a daughter, Xiao Yuehua.

This stirred up Lady Nightingale's painful memories, and the atmosphere at the table immediately became somber. Seeing this, Xiao Yunhua

quickly

smoothed things over, saying with a smile, "Tonight we'll only talk about happy things, not sad memories!" As she spoke, her beautiful eyes swept over the women present, finally settling on Wu Tianjiao. Her eyes sparkled, and she

said with a smile, "Although Fengcheng is a small border town, not as bustling as the capital, it's close to the Monster Forest,

a great hunting ground. Tianjiao, do you still remember what you promised the sisters?"

Before Wu Tianjiao could speak, Xiao Yunhua blurted out, "You promised us high-level monster pets, Brother Jiao,

haven't you fulfilled that promise yet?"

Oh! Upon hearing this, Princess Wude's expression shifted, and she smiled, "High-level magical beast pets! What? Could it be that the

Golden Knife Prince Consort promised to find you high-level magical beast pets?"

"Yes! Yes!"

Xiao Qionghua nodded repeatedly, blurting out, "My brother Jiao personally promised us that he would find a high-level magical beast pet for each of us

sisters , but so far, he has only given my sister and me a fire fox

. We haven't even seen a shadow of a high-level magical beast pet. Now, my brother Jiao is the city lord of Fengcheng, which is close to the Magical Beast Forest. Once

we go to Fengcheng, we can go to the Magical Beast Forest ourselves to find high-level magical beast pets, and we won't need my brother Jiao to find them for

us !"

Princess Wude's beautiful face changed color upon hearing this, but she calmly said, "The Magical Beast Forest is a dangerous place, not a place that ordinary people can..."

"You can enter freely. High-level magical beasts are rare on the outskirts of the Magical Beast Forest. To find them,

you must venture deeper into the forest. But the deeper you go, the more magical beasts there are, and the more dangerous it becomes.

Countless people have entered the Magical Beast Forest throughout history and never returned. You must be careful when you enter!"

"Yes! Although I've never been to the Magical Beast Forest, I've heard it's fraught with danger!"

Lady Nightingale said worriedly. "I've heard that deep within the Magical Beast Forest, there are countless high-level magical beasts, and even

sacred beasts that have cultivated for tens of thousands of years. Going there… that's too dangerous! Don't go in and never come out, losing your lives

!"

The room fell silent; the women's excitement had diminished considerably. Wu Ling Shuang couldn't help but say, "Although the Magical Beast

Forest is dangerous, my third brother has the Crimson Dragon Beast. As long as he takes the Crimson Dragon Beast with him, and we don't venture too deep

, there shouldn't be too much danger!"

Hearing Wu Ling Shuang's words, everyone realized the situation. "Yes! Wu Tianjiao possesses the Crimson Dragon Beast. Whenever he brings it

along, unless it's a top-tier magical beast from the Magical Beast Forest, everyone has to give it a wide berth.

" "How could I have forgotten about the Golden Knife Prince Consort's Crimson Dragon Beast!"

Princess Wude giggled, glancing at Wu Tianjiao with a knowing look. "Speaking of

the Crimson Dragon Beast, it reminds me of something. Prince Consort Tianjiao, you 'borrowed' a piece of

extraterrestrial meteorite from me!"

She spoke subtly, emphasizing the word "borrow," subtly reminding Wu Tianjiao. Wu Tianjiao

understood , but he feigned ignorance and refused to admit anything, saying, "What is Your Highness talking about?

I don't understand a word! What 'heavenly meteorite iron'?"

Princess Wude didn't seem to care and chuckled, "No need for such modesty, Prince Consort Tianjiao.

I've been keeping that heavenly meteorite iron anyway; it's useless. Since you're using it to forge weapons, consider it a gift

! And since you're going to Wind City this time, could you perhaps help me catch a high-level magical beast pet? If that's too difficult,

a mid-level magical beast will do, like a fire fox!"

Ha! Wu Tianjiao finally understood, realizing the trick. So, Princess Wude's invitation tonight was twofold: first,

to cultivate a good relationship with him; and second, to use the heavenly meteorite iron as leverage to exchange for a high-level magical beast pet. This woman

was truly shrewd and calculating, unwilling to suffer any loss. Did she think high-level magical beasts were as easy as potatoes and cabbages to catch?

Before Wu Tianjiao could speak, Princess Tanxiang interrupted, "Royal Aunt, what's so difficult about that?

Once we get to Fengcheng and reach the Monster Forest, we'll catch any monsters we see for you. Whether they're high-level

or mid-level, we'll lay them all out before you for you to choose from. Royal Aunt, what do you say…" *Pfft*—Before Princess

Tanxiang could finish, Princess Tanxue beside her nearly spat out the soup she was drinking.

She choked on the soup, coughing violently until tears streamed down her face.

Cao Jianqin quickly patted Princess Tanxue's back to help her catch her breath, took out a silk handkerchief to wipe her mouth, and asked with concern, "

Sister Tanxue, you choked! Are you alright?"

Princess Tanxue coughed as she took the handkerchief to wipe her mouth, waved her slender hand, and said, "I'm fine…

cough cough …" She continued coughing. She had choked on Princess Tanxiang's words. Everyone was both

amused and exasperated by Princess Tanxiang's words.

Wu Tianjiao glared fiercely at Princess Tanxiang, annoyed by her nonsensical remarks. He hadn't wanted to agree to find Princess Wude

any high-level magical beast pets in the first place, but after Princess Tanxiang's insistence, he had no choice but to agree.

This wasn't entirely Princess Tanxiang's fault; she was a pampered princess of the royal family, spoiled and pampered,

and had never left the capital in her life. Lacking experience and worldly wisdom, she didn't know how difficult it was to catch a high-level magical beast.

She only thought that in the Magical Beast Forest, high-level magical beasts were like pets in her backyard, easily caught in abundance.

Not only Wu Tianjiao, but also Xiao Yunhua, Xiao Qionghua, Dong Tianfeng, and other women cast reproachful

glances . Seeing everyone's reproachful looks, Princess Tanxiang was stunned. Princess Wude, however, was not about to let such a good opportunity slip by.

She giggled and said, "In that case, I thank you in advance, Prince Consort Tianjiao!"

Wu Tianjiao smiled bitterly, thinking to himself, "I've never been to the Monster Forest before. It's hard to say whether I can find any high-level monsters. I might

lose my life there!"

Since things had come to this, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Your Highness's command is my utmost respect!"

Lady Nightingale frowned upon hearing this and said enviously, "High-level monsters as pets are something many nobles

dream . However, adult high-level monsters are very difficult to tame as pets. High-level monster pets are usually

best when they are cubs. If Prince Consort Tianjiao happens to be able to get his hands on a high-level monster cub, why not give me one?"

This was exactly what he feared most. Wu Tianjiao's biggest worry was that after agreeing to Princess Wude's request, others

would seize the opportunity to ask for one as well. And sure enough, Lady Nightingale had arrived.

Wu Tianjiao felt dizzy and overwhelmed, but he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said, "If Tianjiao can really

get a high-level magical beast cub, I will definitely give Aunt Rui one, but..." "That's wonderful!"

Princess Wude interrupted, "Consort Tianjiao is highly skilled in martial arts and has the Crimson Dragon Beast. Entering the Magical Beast Forest

will be like a fish in water for you. No matter how dangerous the Magical Beast Forest is, it's

just a piece of cake for Consort Tianjiao. Consort Tianjiao, I wish you success in getting the high-level magical beast cub. I toast you!"

As she spoke, she raised her wine cup.

Wu Tianjiao was furious at her interruption, thinking, "Is this your trick? You want

me to go to the Magical Beast Forest and die there?"

While thinking this, he raised his cup in response, saying calmly, "Tianjiao will definitely not disappoint the princess!"

After the two drank a cup together, Lady Nightingale also toasted Wu Tianjiao. Apart from Wu Tianjiao,

everyone present was a woman. Most of them were not good drinkers, but some were happy, some were sad,

and regardless of their mood, they all drank a few cups. Only Dong Tianfeng, being pregnant, couldn't hold her liquor. After two cups, her cheeks

flushed , and she stopped drinking.

Princess Wude, understanding and considerate, knew that Dong Tianfeng couldn't drink too much, so she ordered a maid to help her to

a guest room to rest. At this point, Wu Tianjiao's heart finally settled, and she gradually relaxed her vigilance, no longer

worrying that Princess Wude would plot any schemes.

Just as everyone was chatting and eating, the steward, Li Cuie, rushed into the living room in a flustered manner. She went to

Princess Wude's side and whispered something in her ear.

Everyone fell silent upon seeing this. Princess Wude's face changed drastically; she jumped up in shock and cried out, "Why

are they here..." Before she could finish speaking, a high-pitched, shrill voice rang out from outside the hall and into the courtyard:

"The Empress Dowager and the Imperial Concubine of the Eastern Palace have arrived..."
