The General's Genius Daughter

Hearing that, Tianci nodded without fully understanding it.

His bowl was filled with the food that Yun Shimo served him. There were delicacies of all kinds on the table, most of which were tonic cuisines that could nourish both blood and vitality, but they were quite delicious.

Tianci enjoyed his meal very much. But Hua Qiyue had a poor appetite because she had something on her mind, so, she sat beside Tianci and earnestly looked at him, after having less than half a bowl.

Tianci liked Yun Shimo very much. It was probably because they had developed a very good relationship before, thus, he was still very willing to get close to Yun Shimo after losing his memory.

"Mom, aren’t you happy? Why did you eat less?" The gossip boy Tianci started to chatter again.

"You’re too young. Don’t ask too much."

"But Daddy said that it would be best not to feel ashamed to ask questions." Tianci smiled. Hua Qiyue’s mouth twitched and said, "Yun Shimo, in just fifteen minutes, you’ve already taken responsibility for Tianci in the name of his Daddy!" "But Daddy said that it would be best not to feel ashamed to ask questions." Tianci smiled. Hua Qiyue’s mouth twitched and said, "Yun Shimo, in just fifteen minutes, you’ve already taken responsibility for Tianci in the name of his Daddy!"

Looking at her son’s big blinking eyes, Hua Qiyue cooled down completely.

Her son could finally speak, which was the biggest wish in Hua Qiyue’s life. The other part of her wish was to spend the rest of her life safe and happily with her son.

Why blame Tianci because of an irrelevant person?

"I’m not unhappy. I just have a smaller appetite because I’m a woman," Hua Qiyue smiled and said.

Tianci blinked his eyes, and then he saw Yun Shimo’s eyes which had the air of a soft smile. He asked, "Then why is Mom a woman?"

"Tianci, don’t ask such childish questions. Be quick, and then we’ll go back to Hua’s Mansion," Hua Qiyue said coldly. However, Tianci shook his head and said, "I want to stay here with Daddy..."

Suddenly, Hua Qiyue felt extremely depressed, ’I painstakingly took back this little guy, and now he shows his preference toward Yun Shimo? And what did Yun Shimo mean? He let Tianci call him Daddy... I’m shocked, it’s just like lightning in a sunny day!’

"Tianci, how about tomorrow night? I’ll pick you up tomorrow night," Yun Shimo said calmly and quietly stared at Hua Qiyue with his deep black eyes.

Hua Qiyue’s face became severe, and she drew aside Tianci when he finished his meal. She replied, "Tianci doesn’t like to live anywhere else. Hua’s Mansion is the suitable place for him."

Trying to steal her son? No way!

"There is a natural anima energy in Tianci’s pubic region. Therefore, I have to get through his Qi Mai so that he can cultivate ahead of time and become a more outstanding Qi Artist in the future," Yun Shimo said calmly, and he drew Tianci aside, putting his hand on Tianci’s pulse. Yun Shimo felt that Tianci’s natural anima energy was so strong that it was attempting to inhale the anima energy from his body.

The fact that an only six-year-old little boy would have such a strong natural anima energy really surprised Yun Shimo. And Tianci was wide eyed as he said, "Daddy, I’m feeling that something in your body is flowing... Gee, it feels like a flood. That’s awesome!"

This little guy’s eyes were shining. Hua Qiyue looked at her son in disbelief, thinking that this little guy increasingly behaved beyond all her expectations.

Anyway, Tianci had a natural anima energy, which meant that he had an extraordinary gift in the Qi Art.

With the help of his teacher Yun Shimo, Tianci would be more outstanding than him in the future. Therefore, in any case, Hua Qiyue would feel relieved.

"Tianci, you can feel Daddy’s energy..." There shined a strange light in Yun Shimo’s eyes, and the light was a little complicated. Hua Qiyue felt severe and thought, ’Is there something amiss again?’

"Is there anything wrong?" Hua Qiyue asked in a low voice.

Yun Shimo squinted and glanced at Hua Qiyue to reply, "Nothing."

Hua Qiyue suddenly became tongue-tied.

’This guy must be doing it intentionally!’

Indeed, he knew something, but he didn’t tell her. And that was why Hua Qiyue was sullen and depressed.

In this case, she was unwilling to stay any longer. She stood up and pulled Tianci outside, saying, "Tianci, let’s go home."

"Mom, isn’t here our home?"

"You want to live here? Then, you stay here, I’ll go home!" Hua Qiyue said with a little sullenness. Her beautiful eyebrows frowned tightly because she hadn’t thought that Yun Shimo would capture the little guy’s heart so quickly.

’Is it that easy to bribe this little guy?’

The little guy blinked his big and black eyes, shaking his head at once. He said, "I’ll stay with Mom."

Hearing this, Hua Qiyue complacently glanced at Yun Shimo who was standing there calmly and seemed to be even taller under the reflection of his white robe.

His pair of eyes, like an icy abyss meeting a warm stream, slowly became soft and tender. Hua Qiyue halted and immediately avoided that pair of ever changing eyes.

Hua Qiyue dragged Tianci and ran away.

Hua Qiyue went back to the mansion. Old Madame was still awake, but she was a little relieved when she saw Hua Qiyue taking Tianci back.

The next day.

Eunuch Xu from the palace, who worked for the Empress, should arrive by himself and proclaim the Empress’ instructions this time. The Empress appreciated Hua Qiyue greatly and intended to hold a birthday banquet for her, inviting her to the palace before the evening started.

Of course, Old Madame, Second Madame, Hua Mengshi, Third Madame and Hua Xiaoyi were also invited.

Hua Qiyue took out one hundred liang of silver to give a reward to Eunuch Xu. (Liang is a kind of unit of measurement in ancient China.) Eunuch Xu went back happily, and he intentionally warned her in a low voice, "Be careful, Princess Jinghua. It’s sultry in summer, and Your Highness needs to make good preparations for this banquet."

Hua Qiyue calmly smiled and answered, "Thank you for reminding me. I’ll pay attention to it."

Watching Eunuch Xu leaving, Hua Qiyue’s facial expression became cold and severe, ’The Empress will finally take actions.’

She knew that the Empress was deeply concerned about the person behind her, so, she wouldn’t hire a killer to kill her. So... the Empress would only find other ways if she couldn’t hire a killer.

Tonight, it will be a night of storm!

After breakfast, Hua Qiyue took Tianci and the others to the inn to visit Ji Zhong. After all, Ji Zhong once helped her. Although she won that Purple Lotus Phoenix Ice back aboveboard, she was still afraid that she wouldn’t have taken it back without the help of the Ji family.

Ji Zhong and the others were very excited. Since Hua Qiyue performed very well in the competition, it would of course be the Ji family’s great luck to have such a female apprentice.

There was a man who came to visit the Ji family together with Hua Qiyue. This man was Liu Shaoming from the Liu’s.

Liu Shaoming was talented and handsome. In order to make friends with the Ji family which was in a higher position, the Liu’s purposefully made Liu Shaoming participate in the men’s competition.

Enduring the stress from his family, Liu Shaoming had to take part in the platform martial arts tournament. Of course, he was expected to win in the men’s competition, which meant that he would become an apprentice of the Ji family.

Seeing Hua Qiyue, Liu Shaoming raised his eyebrows sullenly and completely presented a wisp of disdain in his eyes.

"It’s a surprise to meet Princess Jinghua here again. You’re really like a fly, I can see you everywhere," Liu Shaoming laughed coldly and said calmly.

Ji Zhong, Ji Feng and others frowned slightly when they realized that Liu Shaoming was so narrow-minded.

Liu Shaoming restrained his disdain when he heard a light cough from an attendant standing behind him.

Ji Jing stood up at once and offered a seat to Hua Qiyue, saying with a smile to her, "Sister Qiyue, I hope you will not mind it. It’s quite normal to be surrounded by one or two flies since there are millions of people in this world. So, why bother to argue with a mad dog?"

Hearing this, Liu Shaoming’s facial expression suddenly became severe and serious.

"Jing’er, don’t be rude!" Though Ji Zhong disliked Liu Shaoming’s behavior, he wouldn’t allow his daughter to be so impolite.

"Being rude? Daddy, I just said it casually. I wasn’t speaking ill of Childe Liu."

It was definitely a clumsy denial about what she had said. Liu Shaoming’s facial expression became even more severe and serious, but another light cough from his attendant woke him up.

The lord of the Ji family, his future master, was the one he was in front of.

The Liu’s had great strenth and power, but they were still a little inferior in the aspect of Qi Art. Only a few of the Liu’s apprentices could reach the great completeness of the Dragon Diagram. Therefore, the lord of the Liu’s hoped that one of his descendants could reach the stage above the great completeness of the Dragon Diagram.

"It’s my honor to meet the lord of the Ji family, First Childe Ji and First Miss Ji!" Liu Shaoming calmed down and spoke loudly.

"Childe Liu, sit down, please," Ji Zhong said calmly.

Liu Shaoming glanced at Hua Qiyue and intentionally kept a certain distance from her.

But Hua Qiyue didn’t take it seriously. After she quietly had a meal with the members of the Ji family, she chatted with the members and then was ready to leave. When she went out of the inn, Liu Shaoming called her name from behind.

"Hua Qiyue, stop, wait!"

Hua Qiyue halted and turned her head reluctantly.

Liu Shaoming came to Hua Qiyue with a grim face. Tianci looked at this dignified man up and down, and he blinked his black eyes when he saw this man’s eyes filled with resentment.

"Childe Liu, what do you want?" Hua Qiyue said politely. Though there were few people around them, she still kept a distance with him.

Liu Shaoming snorted even more disgustedly when he saw Hua Qiyue wary of him. He said, "Hua Qiyue, don’t think that I will like you even if you’ve gained attentions from the Ji family! Don’t be self-centered, I will never ever like you!"

"Oh?" Hua Qiyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Liu Shaoming coldly to say, "So what?"

"So, don’t let me see you!" Liu Shaoming shouted disgustedly.

Hua Qiyue felt ridiculous. Hua Qiyue might show her interest in handsome men before, but now, she totally had no interest in such men like Liu Shaoming.

"Childe Liu, I think you should go see a doctor."

"What?"

"You’re very ill. You blame your self-centered ways on me. I’m really not interested in a frivolous man like you. So please, stay away from me," Hua Qiyue said coldly and Tianci began to giggle.

"Mom, why do I see a big rooster crowing at people? Do I need to feed him with some millet?"

Tianci’s innocent words made Liu Shaoming’s face become totally severe and serious.

"Emm, he seems to be starving. We should feed him well!" Hua Qiyue laughed and said humorlessly; Tianci blinked his eyes and giggled.

Hua Qiyue bent down and picked up Tianci. Tianci waved his hands, only to see a white light shooting at Liu Shaoming like lightning! Of course, Hua Qiyue and Tianci disappeared like a wind after this movement.

Liu Shaoming was greatly surprised. He had never thought that the little boy could use Qi Art. That white light was suddenly broken into electric balls. And these electric balls immediately made a hissing sound when they rubbed against the air.

Liu Shaoming waved his sleeves and poured anima energy into them. His large sleeves collided with the electric balls coming at him, only to hear a bang—

The electric balls were crushed down by Liu Shaoming’s sleeves. However, there was a sort of layer pervading in the air which turned out to be white powder. Carelessly, Liu Shaoming inhaled the powder...
