Page 155, One Hundred and Fifty-Fifth Page

  Xiao Yue jumped up and down, saying: "The chapter update is less than 50%, just wait until midnight and you can read it!" Wen He and Qing Yang looked at each other in dismay, their earlier excitement completely gone, replaced by shock.

  Just a moment ago, she was still sleeping with Yunmeng, saying "You see, we really have nothing to do with each other", but now her mouth is wide open and she can't make a sound.

  In the eastern hills of Qingqiu, there were many little foxes who had never heard of Yunmian's name. Previously, they all thought that the young master would choose Tianhu, the heavenly fox goddess of Qingqiu City, as his wife. No one expected that the legendary young master's wife would appear on their side. Suddenly, it was like a thunderbolt striking calm water, shocking all the little foxes and leaving them stunned. Everyone was unable to react, staring blankly ahead.

  She crouched there in a daze, her back tense, not daring to move at all. In fact, among all the people present, no one was more confused than she was.

  The fox officer calmly rolled up the announcement after finishing speaking and slowly said: "The four people who have reported their names, please report to the East Xian Palace at Chen time tomorrow. I will make detailed arrangements for you later. If you are late, don't blame me."

  This should have been the time for the four of them to respond in unison, but the empty ground was still quiet. The fox officer didn't care about them either, and simply put the announcement into his sleeve.

  "Hey!...... Sir!"

  Yunmian thought Fox Officer was leaving and hastily took a step forward, blurting out.

  Previously when learning Tao in the dojo, Zhuo Guan had always taken on the role of instructor, so he subconsciously referred to him as such.

  Even though she was always confused, the time it took to integrate into Qingqiu wasn't that long, but she also knew that being selected as a companion for the young master of Fox Palace wasn't an easy thing. Although she couldn't tell the difference between being the young master's wife and his study companion, such a huge unexpected event had befallen her, making her at a loss for what to do.

  Yunmian had wanted to ask if it was a mistake, but the main official fox officer put away the announcement and looked at her, calling out: "Elder Yunmian."

  "Is it? Is it?"

  "Madam Fox wants to see you. The carriage is ready, please come with us."

  When she heard that the Fox Mistress wanted to see her, Yunmian was slightly surprised, but before she could ask again, the host fox official had already calmly made way for a bit of space, indicating that she should follow him.

  Yunmian unconsciously turned her head to look at Xiaoyue, but saw that Xiaoyue had also stretched out her neck to gaze back at her, their eyes meeting, and even wagging her tail excitedly.

  Yunmian could not sleep, and had no choice but to nervously follow the main fox official.

  The two walked into the empty space and found a luxurious carriage parked there. The fox official personally lifted the curtain for her and motioned for her to get in.

  Yunmian nervously swallowed her saliva, but having walked to this point, there was no one else she could turn to for help. She took a few more steps forward and jumped onto the carriage, but as soon as she saw the scene in front of her clearly, she froze in shock.

  Yunmian grew up in a mountain cave and had never seen such a beautiful and exquisite carriage. The interior space was even more spacious than it looked from the outside, with soft carpets on the floor, tea and fruit arranged inside, seats wide enough for four or five people to sit down, and fluffy cushions placed on top.

  Such an environment undoubtedly made Yunmian even more uneasy, she walked past under the gaze of Huo Guan, carefully touching the cushion with her paws, seeing that Huo Guan had no reaction, only then did she sit down awkwardly.

  The fox official closed the curtain, and the immortal carriage started moving steadily. Yunmian lay on the soft cushion, not daring to move, but after a while, he couldn't bear it and got up from the cushion, sticking his head out of the window, only to see the clouds flowing by the side of the carriage, with misty mountains outside the window, exactly in the midst of an immortal realm.

  The carriage had not traveled far when it arrived at the Fox Palace. When Yunmian came in a daze, riding in the immortal carriage, the Mistress of the Fox Manor was also nervous.

  The mistress of the fox host was waiting early in the main hall, at this time she was walking back and forth anxiously while flipping through the documents she had taken from the fox official.

  That day, when Ting said he wanted to marry a small white fox she had never heard of, Mrs. Hu was taken aback. She had raised her son to be so big, but didn't know that he had such thoughts, so after Ting left, she immediately ordered someone to bring Yunmian's exam records and assessment results for this period of time, to take a look at who this person was. Who knew that when she saw the policy essay question, Mrs. Hu couldn't help but pause, then smiled slightly.

  A page was densely filled with strange little symbols, squares and circles squeezed together, without any rules, but it can be seen that the writer wrote very seriously.

  The mistress of the fox host couldn't help but feel delighted and flipped through it with great interest, only to find some surprises as she flipped through.

  The accompanying guardian fox officer waiting by the side saw that the expression of the Fox Master's wife had changed, and couldn't help but smile and ask: "Milady, what's wrong?"

  The mistress of the fox host replied with surprise and delight: "My future daughter-in-law has some talent."

  The items of the imperial examination were numerous, but this was the only one that required written composition.

  The hills and mountains are home to many young foxes, except for the heavenly fox gods in Qingqiu City who have inherited some families. Most of these young foxes haven't learned to read yet. From the beginning, they knew that most of them wouldn't be able to answer this question. It's not about testing their political views, but rather about seeing how much foundation they had from their family background, whether they had prepared in the past, and how they would react on the spot.

  Is it really possible to learn such profound political theories in just one or two days? Those who can truly answer correctly are mostly from aristocratic families living in Qingqiu City, while the rest of the little foxes either scribble some fake characters to fill up the space or hand in a blank paper. Only a handful of exceptionally talented individuals can learn and answer correctly within a short period of time.

  And the scroll in front of her, although scribbled, has a certain order. Although it's not written language, the owner of the scroll created his own writing system, but upon closer inspection, you can make out the meaning, and it's fundamentally different from a randomly scribbled scroll, showing that he answered seriously.

  The young lady fox carefully judged the meaning of the scroll for a while. The political views written by such a young fox were naturally lovely to adults, but it was clear that she had listened attentively to the lesson and made an effort to apply her knowledge. The fox official who graded this scroll gave her a score and also wrote comments and remarks on the side, seemingly stifling a smile while reading the scroll.

  It looks a bit clumsy at first glance, but it's not easy to come up with such a method unconsciously... or think of such a method in a short period of time.

  The lady of the fox family smiled and shook her head, then flipped through other test results. She saw that the remaining scores were also good, ranking within the top 50. The main instructor, Fox Officer, who was in charge of teaching at the dojo, had a high evaluation of Yunmian, which made him feel more at ease. Lady Fox was delighted and couldn't help but flip back to the page with the policy essay. After reading it for a while, she said to Fox Officer: "She also has some talent for painting!"

  The fox officer heard this and knew that the fox hostess was satisfied in her heart, smiling and replied: "It's good if the fox hostess feels happy."

  The mistress was delighted, but after all, she had never seen her before and still felt a little tense. Thinking that she would soon see the appearance of her daughter-in-law, she couldn't help but continue pacing in the house, flipping through the documents in her hand several times in a short period of time.

  Yunmian happened to follow the Fox Official from outside at this time. The fox-shaped child was still young and small, and the Fox Official's steps were big and walked too fast. Yunmian hastily tried to chase after him, but as a result, when crossing the threshold, he accidentally lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud.

  The hostess was originally strolling around when she was startled by the sound of Yunmian falling down, and subconsciously went to support her in front of Hu Guan: "Are you okay?"

  But before Madam Fox had even finished speaking, she was already stunned.

  Yunmian happened to raise her head at this moment, revealing a small red lotus mark between her eyebrows.

  Wen Ting is out exercising her body.

  He woke up and was quite dizzy for the first few days, and later because he shouldn't transform into a human shape when injured, so he kept his original form. But today he's almost recovered from his injuries, and since his sword skills have been stagnant for a long time, he came out to dance with his sword and stretch his stiff body. He didn't mean to disturb Yunmian, but now that she's come out, he's slightly surprised.

  Yunmian saw Wen Ting also stunned.

  The young man in front of him was dressed in a crisp white robe, with jade at his waist, and had a refined face. There was a red mark on his forehead, and when he looked over here, his eyes had a hint of elegance.

  Cloud Slumber transformed into her human form that day, and to the people around her, it was just a fleeting glance. In fact, except for Little Moon, she hadn't really spoken with anyone in human form before. Gazing at Wen Ting's appearance, she couldn't help but lose herself in thought. It wasn't until he called out to her that she finally came back to reality and realized the person in front of her was actually Xiao Bai Hu, the little white fox who had been by her side day and night.

  "Who's there? Who's in the courtyard?"

  Yunmian called out uncertainly.

  "Uh-huh."

  Wen Ting softly responded with a "yes".

  "Wow, I didn't know you could use a sword!" Yunmian exclaimed in surprise.

  "Yes."

  Wen Ting didn't answer much, probably because he couldn't remember himself. Yunmeng responded with a "huh?" and stared at him blankly. She rarely saw people, so she hadn't expected Wen Ting to look like this in human form.

  Yunmian didn't have a deep concept of beauty or ugliness, she only knew that Wen Ting looked like he had an unusual feeling, standing in the snow wearing a light-colored robe, making her want to get close to him, yet also feeling that he looked... not as approachable as she had imagined.

  Yunmeng had dozed off for a while before she came to, and she waved her tail which was still in the hole. Only then did she realize that it wasn't very polite of her to be chatting with Wenhui in this state where half of her body was inside the hole and the other half outside. She quickly crawled out of the hole with a blush.

  Wen Ting originally just came out to exercise, saw Yun Mian coming out to find him, and thought of transforming back into a fox to return with her. But the next moment, he only saw a flash of light in front of him.

  Wen Ting was slightly stunned and hadn't reacted yet when she saw the bright light dissipate, Yun Mian transformed from his original form into a human body.

  The author has something to say: In fact, ideally, I would like to write another thousand words.

  Today I tried to take a break on Weibo, but unexpectedly got caught by my editor, and after being scolded, I'm updating with a sore leg...

  The update speed is the fastest, hurry up and come!
