Chapter 339: Chapter 339: Dafeng’s Irritability (Thanks to Book Friends for Extra Rewards)
In the sky, the irritable Phoenix became even more agitated, and everyone below assumed it was due to some abnormal heavenly phenomenon.That’s why the Grand Phoenix was behaving so violently.In fact, the actual reason for the Phoenix’s agitation was a rabbit in the courtyard behind the Cining Palace. This white rabbit made its nest in a hundred-year-old willow tree by bending the willow branches.Then the rabbit concealed itself in the willow nest, baring its teeth at the Grand Phoenix!The Grand Phoenix was furious. This little hare usually flatters when there’s nothing wrong and clings to the powerful.When its master had not descended to the mortal world, it was sycophantic. But now that its master was among the mortals, it was still being sycophantic!Not only was it always one step ahead, but it also provoked the Phoenix here.Such a two-faced creature!Today it came here to provoke the Phoenix, even going so far as to build a nest and conceal itself securely, preventing anyone from detecting its presence!"Grand Phoenix, can you stop yelling and come down? We have gathered a lot of delicious food for you."The Grand Phoenix arrived at the Imperial Palace of Korea and refused to leave. The National Master had specially researched many ancient books, and found that Phoenixes usually eat spiritual flowers and grass, not grains.This made the Empress Dowager worry. She instructed the young Emperor to select a group of men from the Inner Guard to specifically search for food for the Grand Phoenix. Now, the food that the Palace Maids presented was what the Inner Guard had just brought.The Grand Phoenix cried out to the sky, not even glancing at the food.Just a bunch of fools. Do they think that what’s written in the ancient books is always correct?What kind of food does a Phoenix eat?A Phoenix also needs to practice cultivation. It is a Divine Bird, belonging to the Divine Clan.The food from this world is better suited for feeding eagles and sparrows!"Your Highness, don’t mention these foods anymore. Seeing the look in the Grand Phoenix’s eyes, it seems to be full of disdain!"The nanny by the Empress Dowager’s side, Xiao Nanny, who had been observant since she was young, noticed the way Grand Phoenix looked at these mundane items."What should we do now? The Grand Phoenix remains agitated, and there is also the heavenly phenomenon today. What could be causing it to behave this way?"How would Xiao Nanny know the real reason for the Phoenix’s agitation? But Xiao Nanny was concerned about her master and wanted to help relieve her troubles."Your Highness! If the Grand Phoenix refuses to come down, it might be best for you to rest a while, and see whether it lands by itself later on.Otherwise, you could summon the National Master to the palace to figure out the situation. Upon hearing Xiao Nanny’s words, the Empress Dowager found them reasonable."That’s a good idea, let’s wait a while more. If the Grand Phoenix still does not come down, ask the National Master to come to the palace for a consultation."After giving her instruction, the Empress Dowager added, "Also, go to the Ji Residence on your way and bring the eldest Princess to the palace. I miss that child dearly!"As soon as she finished speaking, the agitated Phoenix in the sky calmed down. It circled around in the sky before obediently descending."It...it came down!" The Empress Dowager looked pleasantly surprised and hurriedly fed it a stalk of grass.The Grand Phoenix held its head high, and its eyes full of disdain returned."Ah! It... It looks so disdainful!Is it looking down on me?Or is it looking down on this stalk of grass in my hand?"The Empress Dowager was puzzled, the surprise in her eyes turned into confusion.Xiao Nanny remarked,"Your Highness! You should be thinking about why the Grand Phoenix has suddenly stopped being agitated?"
