"Does he have to cook for you every time?"
Chen Qingyu shook his head and pouted:
"Then you are wrong."
"I have quite a few servants in my home in Shendu, and many people serve us."
"Especially in the pantry. My father and I both like to eat delicious food. There are more than a dozen cooks."
"what?"
When Ling Qiuxia heard this, she was taken aback:
"This is really..."
She didn't know what to think, her eyes showed a complex color, and recalled:
"I remember that when your father and I first met, I was still a princess. When I went out, I would hug each other, eat and change clothes, and there were hundreds of people around me."
"Even if I reached the human race, I forged a set of identities for this purpose, and I acted with great fanfare, without any restraint."
"And your father is the exact opposite. He hates others to serve him very much. He has to do everything himself, and he refuses to leave the laundry and cooking to others."
"When I first got together with him, because of this, there were many quarrels..."
Saying that, she couldn't help but sigh:
"I just didn't expect that after so many years of separation, I've become accustomed to living alone, but he has become accustomed to others serving him."
When Chen Qingyu heard the words, he smiled and said:
"Doesn't this just mean that you and my father influence and tolerate each other?"
Ling Qiuxia also smiled and said:
"Then you are at a loss."
"Your father's cooking skills are unparalleled in the world. I have never tasted more delicious dishes than his cooking."
"Even in the Taixu Dao world, those peerless famous chefs in history can't compare to him in terms of cooking skills."
"He doesn't want to cook anymore. I'm afraid you haven't tasted his dishes, have you?"
"what?"
Chen Qingyu was taken aback and said blankly:
"I don't know that."
"I asked him and he said he couldn't cook, never cooked."
"Hahaha……"
When Ling Qiuxia heard the words, she couldn't help laughing and said:
"Then he must have lied to you."
"This……"
Chen Qingyu's face was a little ugly:
"Dad actually lied to me for so many years... I lost a lot!"
Ling Qiuxia looked at him and smiled even more cheerfully.
"..."
Princess Hanshan, who was beside her, silently listened to the conversation between the two, without saying a word from beginning to end, but her eyes were much gentler, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised involuntarily.
But suddenly:
She seemed to sense something, her expression changed, a cold light flashed in her eyes, her face was instantly cold, she stepped forward and bowed her head:
"Mother, I have something to deal with. I have to go out."
"Ok?"
Ling Qiuxia was stunned for a moment, her smile subsided, and she was silent for a while before nodding her head:
"Then you go, go early and come back early."
"Ok."
Princess Hanshan nodded slightly, looked at Chen Qingyu again, and warned:
"Just stay here, don't run around until I come back."
The voice fell:
She bowed to Ling Qiuxia, turned around quickly, and hurriedly left the palace.
"Hey."
After she left, Ling Qiuxia retracted her gaze and sighed softly.
"Qing Yu."
She looked at Chen Qingyu and said:
"Do you feel that your sister is cold to you?"
"is a bit."
Chen Qingyu nodded honestly.
"Don't blame her, she just..."
Ling Qiuxia said, paused for a while, as if she didn't know how to describe it, and finally could only whisper:
"She's not like you."
"In the beginning, when the Shendu incident happened, she was already one year old, and she was not an ordinary child. She could clearly remember a lot of things."
"She watched with her own eyes, the uncles, grandpas and uncles who loved her and liked to tease her, as well as kind old grandpas, died one by one and turned into ashes."
"Even, the cousins who are a few years older than her and like to hold her up and run around are also crushed into mud."
"A good big family fell apart overnight."
"Later, our family was forced to separate. After I brought her back to the royal court with you, she kept crying and making a fuss. She didn't want to stay here, she wanted to go back to the capital of God."
As she said that, there was a hint of distress and helplessness in her eyes:
"She doesn't like it here, never has."
"She is not pure blood, so she will always be ostracized and ridiculed by the spirit clan children of the same age, and she will be bullied and targeted in everything. In many cases, even if I come forward, it will not help."
"When she was young, she often hugged me, put her ears on my stomach, whispered to you, and poured out her grievances."
"But as she grew up...everything gradually changed."
"She became aloof and aloof, stopped talking to anyone, and sometimes I couldn't even guess what she was thinking."
"She created a thick ice shell to protect herself and shut herself in."
After Chen Qingyu silently listened to her words, he nodded slowly:
"I see."
"I don't blame her, it's not her choice."
Think about it, if he was in the situation of his sister, maybe he would be like her now.
But the upper echelons of the Chen family were different from the royal court of the Spirit Race, erasing the past and blocking the news that he was a mixed race.
Therefore, since he was a child, he has never suffered any discrimination or exclusion before his talent determination, and he will always enjoy the treatment of the most honorable direct descendants, just like the rest of the children.
God is his home.
But the Royal Court of the Spirit Race is not her home. Here, she has only her own mother and no other family members.
Chapter 239 The battle within the royal court of the Spirit Race
"Ugh……"
Ling Suxia sighed again and said quietly:
"I know she has resentment in her heart, not only against your father, but also against me."
"She complained that we were too weak and watched as a family was broken."
"She hated herself even more and couldn't do anything about it."
"So, since she was a child, she has worked hard to cultivate and become stronger, regardless of all dangers, and practiced the most dangerous and domineering exercises, and she did not hesitate to go into the devil several times."
"Her blood is not pure and her talent is not strong, but she forcibly overwhelms her peers and becomes one of the most outstanding and dazzling talents in the royal court."
"Many years ago, no one dared to gossip about her again, no one dared to mock her face to face for being a mixed race."
As she spoke, she looked at Chen Qingyu and said softly:
"I'm telling you this because I hope you can understand her."
"It's not that she doesn't care about you, or doesn't like you."
"If she really doesn't care about you and your father, why would she deliberately collect information to find out about the many holy places of the human race and the time limit for the relegation of the guards of the Taiyin Catacombs?"
"Actually, in her heart, she is always thinking about reuniting our family."
"The reason why she is indifferent to you is that she actually sees your appearance, and she resents the upper management of the Chen family. In order to make up for the loopholes earlier, she will not hesitate to ruin your future of cultivation, but also 'ripe you', and she can't help it when she sees you. anger……"
Chen Qingyu nodded silently and said in a low voice:
"I understand what you said."
"Ok."
When Ling Qiuxia heard the words, she nodded slightly, hesitated for a while, and then continued:
"Actually, after she heard the news of your arrival at the royal court, she picked you up as soon as possible, also to protect you."
Chen Qingyu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help narrowing his eyes:
"protect me?"
"Could it be that I am still in danger in the royal court of the Spirit Race?"
Ling Qiuxia shook her head and said:
"It's not dangerous. You are the direct descendant of the Chang Luo Chen Clan after all, and the royal court of the Spirit Clan does not dare to hurt you."
"The reason for this is, to put it bluntly, some struggles within the royal court."
Saying that, she pointed in a certain direction and said:
"The position of the eldest princess in the royal court has been vacant for many years."
"And in half a month, it will be the 'birthday of the ancestral tree' that the Spirit Clan celebrates once in a thousand years and the whole world. All tribes, including the royal court, are preparing for this celebration."
"And among the upper echelons of the royal court, there was also news that the eldest princess' successor would be officially established on the birthday of the ancestral tree."
When Chen Qingyu heard the words, he couldn't help but be surprised.
No wonder he had fled hundreds of thousands of miles on the periphery of the Forest of Eternal Night, but he had never met a single person from the Spiritual Race.
It turned out that all the Spirit Race tribes were preparing for the celebration, and they shrunk their manpower, causing him to escape for a long time before he bumped into the patrolling guards of the Donggan tribe.
"so……"
He looked at Ling Qiuxia and asked:
"My sister, she also intends to compete for the position of the eldest princess?"
The Spiritual Race has always been yin and yang, and women are in power. The position of the princess of Wang Ting is similar to that of the Chen clan's eldest son, the heir to the next patriarch.
When there is no Daozi, the Chen clan's eldest son, the person with the highest status in the younger generation, will be fully cultivated by the Chen clan.
"Of course."
Ling Qiuxia said:
"In order to achieve her goals, she must win any opportunity."
"To be precise, now she has eliminated most of the competitors, and there is only one cousin 'Princess Yulong' who is stronger than her and has a higher status."
"Originally, she and Princess Yulong were not on a par with each other, or even slightly at a disadvantage."
