Chapter 459: Time to Visit the Little Fox

Ning Shu feigned concern and went to visit the fox. The little fox was lying on the dragon bed. Except for the bandage around her forelimb, she was doing very well and looked very lively.

When the little fox saw Ning Shu, hostility filled her eyes as she used her other forelimb to casually toy with a small ball. This small ball was finely made and the fabric was very soft.

The little fox hated this empress quite a lot. The fact that she was Huo Qing’s wife was enough to make the little fox hate her.

Now, she had even gotten injured because of this woman and wouldn’t be able to move for a long time. Huo Qing wouldn’t allow her to run around so she was about to be bored to death, stifled to death. This imperial palace was seriously so boring ah. She was so unlucky! How did she end up as a fox? Lord ah, Heavens ah, why was she so unlucky?

Ning Shu saw the little fox’s eyes whirl with human-like intelligence. It was no wonder Huo Qing doted on this fox so much.

“Why are you here?” When Huo Qing walked in and saw that Ning Shu was in the room, his expression immediately darkened. When he saw that the little fox was fine and playing on the bed, his expression relaxed somewhat.

“This subject wife pays her respects to Your Majesty.” Ning Shu respectfully curtsied towards Huo Qing.

Huo Qing replied ‘en’ without even bothering to glance at her. He sat down by the bed and stroked the little fox’s head, his eyes filled with doting affection. The little fox licked Huo Qing’s finger in response.

Huo Qing’s gaze deepened.

Ning Shu felt that she was a complete outsider that had no way of being part of this one fox, one human atmosphere. It was pretty awkward. Her awkwardness cancer was about to flare up.

The little fox seemed to be craving skin contact and enjoyed Huo Qing’s petting happily. Ning Shu smacked her lips. When it occurred to her that their relationship was beyond that of a normal owner and pet’s, she became a little disgusted.

Ning Shu stood there like a wooden block. After a while, Huo Qing finally asked, “Does Empress need something?”

“This subject wife came to deliver medicine.” Ning Shu took out a medicine vial and placed it on the table. “This medicinal powder is pretty effective on healing wounds.”

“Empress has taken a lot of trouble,” said Huo Qing mildly. He continued stroking the little fox’s soft golden fur that was so fluffy that his fingers were nearly submerged.

Ning Shu bit her lips, then looked towards Huo Qing with an expression of blame. When Huo Qing looked up and met Ning Shu’s gaze, he asked, “Is there something else?”

Ning Shu blinked her eyes and forced them to fill with tears before saying with a pout, “Your Majesty, you went to Noble Consort Xuan’s palace yesterday. Yesterday was the fifteenth.”

Huo Qing’s expression immediately turned black. His first reaction was to glance towards the little fox. The little fox turned around right around and faced Huo Qing with her butt. Her golden tail swayed slowly, clearly indicating her anger.

“Is Empress reprimanding us? We are the rightful emperor, are we not allowed to go where we please?” Huo Qing’s embarrassment turned into anger and he glared at Ning Shu. He was clearly very annoyed that Ning Shu had brought this up in front of the little fox.

Huo Qing had never treated the little fox as an ordinary fox. She was very smart and could understand everything. When she was like this, it meant that she was angry.

Ning Shu acted hurt to the point that she couldn’t get any words out and her face filled with disappointment. When the little fox saw Ning Shu like this, she bared her small sharp teeth as if she was sneering.

Ning Shu glanced at her mildly, then curtsied towards Huo Qing. “This subject wife will withdraw.”

Huo Qing waved his hand dismissively to have her hurry and leave.
