My Wife is a Psychic

278 Reserving a Seat

The imperial preceptor’s heart ached as he watched. No, it was not the first time that Jiang Xi had intercepted the saintess, the person with heaven’s blight… The imperial preceptor glanced at Jiang Xi and thought, ‘This is not someone to be trifled with.’ He felt like he was in big trouble. He only came out to gain experience, why did he have to encounter such things! Now, even the phoenix’s nirvana had been taken by Jiang Xi. He wondered if the saintess would go crazy when she heard the news. He heard that the saintess had already sent people to look for the person who had heaven’s blight. The imperial preceptor was a little worried.

“Phoenix, come down quickly. I’ll find you twelve female phoenixes to serve you. Come down quickly.” The imperial preceptor was so angry that he was about to die. He watched as the fire on phoenix’s body grew bigger and bigger, and his brows were so tightly knitted that they could pinch a mosquito to death. From the phoenix’s gorgeous tail feathers, a cluster of flames began to spread. The flames slowly grew larger, bringing with it a demonic red in the snow.

The imperial preceptor was about to cry. Only by personally witnessing the phoenix’s nirvana and being chosen by the phoenix could the saintess become the real person in charge of the country, but now… The imperial preceptor felt like cursing in his heart.

The saintess lived and ate with the phoenix in order to gain its trust and gain its favor when the phoenix reached nirvana. However, Where was the phoenix’s moral integrity?

The phoenix screeched and flames suddenly sprang up from its body. Its entire body was shrouded in fiery red flames and then circled above Jiang Xi’s head. All of this made the people in the city come to a realization. They all knelt down to pray and kowtowed. Even the emperor was dragged down by the ministers.

The emperor was speechless.

“Your Majesty, you have to say something nice later. You have to bring Miss Jiang, no, the princess back to the palace.” One of the officials had a serious expression on his face. Behind him kneeled all the civil and military officials, all of them looking up at the Emperor.

“Your Majesty, since you’re able to say this in public, I’m sure you’re mentally prepared. Don’t worry, we can accept it, we can all accept it. We’ll definitely assist the princess well, so don’t worry.” The officials understood. Although the emperor had not lost his virtue, His Majesty was definitely not as good as before.

The emperor opened his mouth, but before he could finish, the minister continued, “Your Majesty, I know you’re afraid that we can’t fully support the princess. Don’t worry, we’ll be careful and won’t let our guard down.

The emperor was speechless. So, these people were forcing him to abdicate? Although he had made some mistakes, it was not to the extent of abdicating, right? Were these people trying to curry favor with the heavens? A group of powerful people! Why did these people not try to curry favor with him usually? The emperor felt that these people were despising him and forcing him to abdicate.

The emperor felt that he was filled with disdain. When he looked down again, all the civil and military officials were lying on the ground submissively, reverent and pious. There was no hint of disdain.

“I’m not even forty yet, and I’m already going to be the retired emperor?” The emperor’s heart was bleak. The ministers laughed but did not say anything. In fact, the emperor did not do anything wrong and did not need to abdicate. The problem was that the emperor seemed to have been despised by the heavens. It could be seen just by looking at the bird poop all over the palace.

“I suddenly remember that when I was inheriting the throne, I received a prophecy. It said that I would work hard for many years to make a wedding dress for someone else. So, I didn’t become the emperor just to save a place for my daughter, did I?” The emperor was horrified. He felt as if he had found out the truth. So he was just a there to reserve a seat? When his daughter was not around, was he just there to look after the house? Thinking about it carefully, he lost all the opportunities when he was born, but he still became the emperor. When his daughter was born, he just happened to inherit the throne. When his daughter was taken away, the brother who was sent out of the palace came to seize the throne. When his daughter came back, he had to abdicate… Was this not the same as letting him reserve a seat? The emperor suddenly felt that life was so boring and tragic.

“The phoenix is going to be burned to death. Mother, I don’t want the phoenix to be burned to death.” A child looked at the beautiful phoenix and could not bear to part with it.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry, kneel down.” The woman pulled her child into her arms and looked up at the phoenix on fire. There was some regret in her eyes. Such a beautiful phoenix…

The fire surrounded the phoenix, and there was no trace of it. Its chirping became weaker and weaker, and all that could be heard was the sound of the wind and the fire.

Jiang Xi felt a little hot on the top of her head, so she quietly moved to the side. To her surprise, the ball of fire above her spread its wings and flew to the top of her head. Jiang Xi’s face darkened and she looked at it with disdain.
