Secret of Raoxi (5)

Princess Raoxi was lost in her story. "The Primary Heaven Pill is the best pill in the world. I'll be in great shape after I take it. With my talent, I'll be able to make great progress in my cultivation. Father, are you happy?"2

The king asked, "Did he really say that?"

Princess Raoxi said, "Of course. You were there before, weren't you? The Patriarch said that he had a Primary Heaven Pill for his junior sister. It'll expire if she doesn't take it now."

The king did know about it because the Patriarch had talked about it, but they only heard about it by accident.

"Did the Patriarch say that he was going to give it to you?" The king asked suspiciously.

Princess Raoxi panicked. What was going on with her father? He had never questioned her words before and would believe anything she said.

Princess Raoxi exchanged a stern look with the queen. After that, she threw a dirty look at the prince, which was filled with hatred and rage. Her dear brother must have complained to her father!

The prince rubbed his nose and didn't try to explain himself. His father knew what was going on.

Princess Raoxi looked at the king again.

"Father, I've been to the tower a lot, haven't I? The Patriarch said once that he was going to give me the pill, and it would be on my 18th birthday. I understand why you didn't know because only the Patriarch and I were there, and I never told you about it." As she spoke, she smiled shyly. "The Patriarch not only wanted to give me the pill, but he also taught me all kinds of things. He said that I had brought him a lot of joy…"

Princess Raoxi told the king how the Patriarch liked her, doted on her, and treated her well.

The king was speechless.

So was the prince.

The father and son looked at each other, and their faces twitched.

The image of the princess wiping the floor appeared in their heads…

"Really?" The king looked at her.

She was his favorite princess, and he had brought her up by his side. How could she lie to him?

He thought about how Princess Raoxi used to make him happen when she was little. She would cry when other people carried her and laugh when she saw him. She would hold his father's hand and cry as if he was the only one she cared about in the world. It pained the king to see her like this.

At that thought, the king softened a little and decided to give Raoxi another chance.

"Really? Is the Patriarch really that nice to you?"

Princess Raoxi's stomach lurched. She could sense something different about her father. Did he know something?

"Father, did the Patriarch say something?" Princess Raoxi asked tentatively.

The king smiled. "He's so busy, and I hardly ever see him, let alone talk to him. I was just thinking that you haven't come to see me in the tower these days."

Princess Raoxi let out a breath of relief. She knew it. The Patriarch was too unattainable to chat with her father.

Princess Raoxi immediately said, "I wanted to come in and take care of you, but the Patriarch said that you were too sick to be disturbed, so I had no choice but to stay outside. Then, something came up with my mother, and you came out as soon as I arrived. It really wasn't like that…"

The more she said, the more anxious she became.
