Chapter 941: Wuhu, the Divine Bird

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She slept late last night and woke up a little late the next day.

The space beside her was empty. Princess Hui An was no longer there.

Cheng Sang and the three children’s laughter came from the courtyard, accompanied by the shouts of Mei Ji and Yuchi Xiu.

It was much more lively.

She just couldn’t hear Princess Hui An’s voice.

Su Xiaoxiao dressed up and went to the ear room to wash up. She opened the door and walked out.

The others were noisy. Princess Hui An sat quietly on the stone stool under the corridor.

Su Xiaoxiao preferred her noisy appearance. She was not used to her sudden silence.

“Huahua.”

Su Xiaoxiao walked over.

Huahua was Princess Hui An’s nickname. Since she had come to the Cheng family, it was not good to call her princess.

Princess Hui An turned around. “You’re awake?”

Su Xiaoxiao sat down beside her. “Did you sleep well last night?”

Princess Hui An said, “I couldn’t sleep.”

“I’ll get someone to lay one more bed for you later.” Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Have you had breakfast?”

Princess Hui An said, “Yes.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Do you want to go out for a walk?”

Princess Hui An was stunned. “Can I?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “Of course. You’re a guest of the Cheng family, not a prisoner. The Cheng family can walk around as they please. Just teach the disrespectful servants a lesson if you encounter them.”

Princess Hui An lowered her eyes. “I don’t want to cause you trouble.”

She already knew not to cause trouble. While Su Xiaoxiao marveled at her growth, she couldn’t help but sigh for her.

She thought of the three children. Would they leave behind their carefree past one day and grow into responsible, and considerate young men? “Dahu, come and catch me! Come, come! Erhu, come too!”

Xiaohu was always the one who was caught.

Today was different. He was with Cheng Sang. Cheng Sang carried him and ran very quickly. It was not easy to catch him.

Su Xiaoxiao retracted her gaze from the children and said to Princess Hui An, “When I was in the palace, I always caused trouble. Huahua has never found me troublesome.”

“Then… that’s true. You still know that you like to cause trouble.” Princess Hui An recalled her days in the capital and her eyes lit up.

“I already said that I will protect you. There’s no need for you to curry favor with Jingning!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Yes, when we return to the capital, I’ll have to rely on

Huahua.”

Princess Hui An raised her chin and said arrogantly, “You’re my sidekick. Don’t worry, you just have to do whatever you want in the capital!”

With a few words, Princess Hui An felt much better. She decisively joined Cheng Sang and the three little ones to play with them.

Erhu and Xiaohu had once been to the palace and were recognized as illegitimate children by Emperor Jing Xuan. Princess Hui An now knew the truth.

However, she would not betray her little sidekick.

Su Xiaoxiao said to the public that Princess Hui An was her old friend in Cloud Water Town. Her surname was Xiao and her name was Hua. She came to the residence to stay for a few days.

Cheng Sang welcomed her.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t care if the others were welcoming.

Last night, she discussed a plan with Wei Ting to sow discord between the Saintess and the King of the Southern Wilderness. Coincidentally, today was the day Eunuch Jin went to the bird market.

Su Xiaoxiao ate a simple meal and asked Uncle Quan to prepare a bird cage to bring Wuhu out.

Wuhu refused to enter the bird cage.

Su Xiaoxiao coaxed, “Be good. It’s just for a while. I’ll let you out soon.”

Wuhu refused hideously.

Su Xiaoxiao placed two pieces of bird food in the cage.

Wuhu snorted, “Can I be easily defeated with two bird food?”

Wuhu raised the price. It wanted 10! Su Xiaoxiao said, “As long as you do it, I’ll give you 20, let alone 10!”

Wuhu decisively entered the cage.

As soon as it entered, it sensed that something was wrong.

Had it been scammed by an unscrupulous master?

It had been sloppy!

Su Xiaoxiao closed the cage door and slipped into the carriage.

There were many bird markets in the southern border, but according to the information Wei Ting and Wei Liulang had obtained, Eunuch Jin usually went to the Hundred Birds Guild in the eastern suburbs.

Not only were there people buying and selling birds, but there were also people playing with birds and fighting birds. There were many bets, and the stakes were not low.

Eunuch Jin had a black crow in his hand. It could be said to be the king of birds and had never lost.

Wuhu’s mission today was to defeat it and obtain Eunuch Jin’s appreciation. They wanted Eunuch Jin to buy Wuhu from Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t act alone.

When she arrived at the Hundred Birds Guild, Wei Ting and Wei Liulang were already strolling around the bird market with their birds.

Wei Liulang was still wearing his mask. Wei Ting changed his appearance slightly and became a little ordinary.

However, no matter how ordinary his face was, his deep eyes and long eyelashes that were thicker than a woman’s could not be hidden.

Fortunately, there were few women in the bird market. Otherwise, who wouldn’t sigh at that pair of charming eyes?

Su Xiaoxiao was disguised as a man today, and her face was still the ordinary one she had used in the Cheng family. “Is this little brother here to fight birds too?”

Wei Ting casually got close to Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao looked unfamiliar with him. “Are you the same?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “Brother and I have been waiting for a long time. The next round has yet to begin.”

Wei Liulang pointed at the big bird cage opposite and said, “It’s starting!”

Wei Ting said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Little brother, do you want to go with us?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Sure, sure!”

At the entrance, the three of them spent money to buy the number plate and chips for fighting birds.

The chips could be added.

The method of fighting birds was eclectic. There was a mixed fight in a big birdcage, and there was also a one-on-one duel. The odds varied according to the situation of the bet.

“Which one is Eunuch Jin?” Wei Liulang asked softly.

Su Xiaoxiao had seen Eunuch Jin at the Holy Selection.

He was a peerless man. He could be seen at a glance in the crowd unless he didn’t come.

“Could he be in the private room?” Wei Liulang asked.

Wei Ting said, “There are no private rooms in the bird market.”

Birds were small to begin with. Could one see them clearly from the private room? This was not an expert’s combat arena.

Wei Liulang said, “Oh.”

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her hands. “Let’s join the fight for a while. Don’t let anyone see anything amiss.”

Wei Ting looked at her expressionlessly. “You just want to play, right?” These bird cages were limited in size, and the big bird did not allow them to

enter.

Wuhu was petite and completely unrestricted.

“Are you sure about such a small bird?” the clerk in the bird market asked.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “I’m sure.”

“How much are you betting?” the clerk asked. “A hundred taels,” Su Xiaoxiao replied.

The shop assistant was speechless. Su Xiaoxiao whispered to Wuhu, “One piece of bird food per round.”

The feathers of Wuhu exploded.

Just one?

Su Xiaoxiao said, “There are many birds here. You can win many rounds. 20 rounds is 20, right?”

It felt that something was right, but also sensed that something was wrong.

Wuhu flew into the birdcage in confusion.

With Eunuch Jin’s rank, it was impossible for him to participate in the big fight, so Su Xiaoxiao chose to fight alone.

In the first round, Wuhu fought an adult myna.

It was said that this myna had already won three rounds and was an out-and-out new sharp bird.

Wuhu was still young and was not as big as this myna for the time being.

Everyone placed their bets on the myna.

The battle began.

The myna had been trained and had extremely powerful combat strength. It flapped its wings and pecked at Wuhu.

Wuhu did not move.

Seeing that the myna was about to peck it, it suddenly jumped up and slapped the myna down with its wings!

Everyone gasped!

This bird actually knew how to slap opponents!
