The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 661: Going To The Jasmine Palace

However, after a moment, she recognised them. They were a young miss’s contracted beast who stayed in their human form. Xiao Li immediately calmed down. She cleaned the table.

"Xiao Li, you can rest after this." Bai Xifeng stated.

"Alright, Young Miss." Xiao Li nodded.

"When are you going to refine the pill for your seal?" Baishe brought out the topic.

"Two days later." Bai Xifeng stated.

"You have been delaying it for so long," Baishe said.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Xiaofeng know what she doing." Heishe said.

Baishe rolled his eyes at Heishe.

"I will go and treat the empress dowager’s illness first. After that, I will focus on making the pill. I promise." Bai Xifeng assured Baishe.

....

Bai Xifeng woke up after Xiao Li woke her. Xiao Li remembered that her young miss had an appointment with the empress dowager. It would be bad if they were late.

Xiao Li was efficient. While Bai Xifeng got ready for the day, Xiao Li had already gone and prepared Bai Xifeng’s breakfast. After Bai Xifeng came out of her room, breakfast was already waiting for her.

"Xiao Li, have you eaten?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Well, I am about to eat." Xiao Li stated.

"Just eat with me." Bai Xifeng said.

Since her young miss said so, Xiao Li took the seat.

"It feels like the past." Bai Xifeng chuckled while they were eating.

"Huh?" Xiao Li did not understand.

"Remember, in the past, we always shared everything." Bai Xifeng said.

Xiao Li finally understood what Bai Xifeng meant by that. Yes. They did not have money. The kitchen did not give much food to her young miss. Sometimes, they even forgot about their young miss. She even had to go to the kitchen to steal some food for her and her young miss.

"Yes... It was hard at that time." Xiao Li nodded.

"But you always stay by my side. Most of the maids left." Bai Xifeng said.

"Madam took me in during my hardest time. I am grateful for that. I should repay Madam’s kindness by staying with you." Xiao Li said.

"Thank you for always staying by my side." Bai Xifeng said.

They finished breakfast. When they were about to leave, they saw Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng waiting at the entrance.

"Father? Brother? What are you doing here? Should you go to the palace now?" Bai Xifeng was surprised when she saw her father and brother.

"You are going to the palace too. We will accompany you there." Bai Xiang said.

"We will ride the horse." Bai Tingfeng said.

Bai Xifeng looked at the horse. She recognised the horse. It was Tian.

"Good morning, Tian." Bai Xifeng greeted the horse.

The horse let out some sounds in reply to Bai Xifeng’s greeting.

"Tian, you look handsome as ever." Bai Xifeng rubbed the horse.

Tian was a black horse with Bai Tingfeng for a long time. With the black colour, he looks stunning and majestic. People usually did not like the black colour because it symbolised evil. So, Tian was a horse that no one wantet. But the moment, Bai Tingfeng laid his eyes on this black horse, he knew that he wanted it.

Bai Tingfeng took the black horse with him and named it Tian. He trained it. Tian seemed to know by training, only then could it stay. After that, Tian accompanied Bai Tingfeng anywhere.

Bai Xifeng took out something and gave it to Tian. Tian ate it. Tian rubbed its head against Bai Xifeng.

"I know it. You like it." Bai Xifeng said.

Bai Xifeng gave a pill to Tian. It was the same pill that she gave to her contracted beasts. The first time, she gave it to Tian when she was giving the pills to her contracted beasts. The jar was knocked off and the contents spilt over the floor.

While she was collecting the pills, Tian, who was coming accidentally, ate them. She wanted Tian to take it out since she did not know what would happen to Tian if Tian ate the pill. She waited for anything to happen. However, after waiting for a long time, nothing happened.

Not only that, Tian seemed to ask her if he could get more. He liked it. Ever since when Tian saw Bai Xifeng, she would given the pill to Tian.

"Okay... Okay... I need to go first." Bai Xifeng said.

Bai Xifeng and Xiao Li rode the carriage. The carriage was accompanied by Bai Tingfeng and Bai Xiang. When they arrived at the palace, Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng wanted to accompany her to Jasmine Palace, but Bai Xifeng told them to go to work. They reluctantly left.

An eunuch from the Jasmine Palace had been waiting for Bai Xifeng. He rushed over when he saw Bai Xifeng.

"Lady Bai, I am here to bring you to Her Highness." The eunuch said.

"Thank you." Bai Xifeng said.

The eunuch seemed to be taken aback. The version of Bai Xifeng that he got from others was different. He heard from others that Bai Xifeng was rude and hard to please. He was very careful when he greeted Bai Xifeng earlier.

Bai Xifeng once again thanked the eunuch when they arrived at the Jasmine Palace hall. The empress dowager had been waiting for her. Empress Miao Yu was also here. She also saw two unfamiliar men and women.
