After a long wait, the auspicious day had finally come. All Qing Qui streets, markets, business, homes were decorated to pay homage to Bai Qian and Crown Prince Ye Hua wedding.

Lian Song was helping his nephew with his wedding robes. Ye Hua finally decided to wear a different color than his traditionally black robes.

"Are you happy nephew?" Lian Song asked.

"More than happy, I'm grateful. I am finally marrying Qian Qian. After all that we went thru, we can be together now without any objections. Not to mention that Ali is ecstatic that his mother will come and live with us permanently."

"I'm happy to see that you can live your happiness. I'm truly overjoyed to see it happening."

"Thank you, uncle, for helping me in the past to endure my pain when I was lost." Ye Hua said.

"You are like a son to me Ye Hua, of course you can count with me in everything that you might need in the future. Let me help you with your crown."

Ye Hua wedding ceremonial robes were white with golden dragons embroidered all over. His golden crown made a fantastic contrast with his beautiful black hair and brown eyes. His face shown with happiness and peace. He could not hide his handsome smile.

Lian Song was part of the wedding procession to go to Qing Qui to pick up the bride. Si Ming, Mo Yan and Zhe Yan were also part of the wedding entourage. At the fox den the Queen of Qing Qui received them. Feng Jiu was wearing a beautiful embroidered light peach dress with a small golden crown on her head. She was truly a vision. Her makeup was light but beautiful, her lips were peach, and she had on a pair of pearl earrings.

When Feng Jiu saw Mo Yan, she formally kowtowed to him greeting him as her laoshi. His disciples were behind the bride carriage waiting on seventeen to come inside to escort her to the heavenly palace along with the rest of the palace guards and wedding procession. She wanted to spend time with all of them.

"You look well your highness." Mo Yan greeted her.

"Thank you laoshi, it's been a while." She gave him a soft smile.

"Third Prince is an honor to see you here in Qing Qui. How are you?"

"Your highness the honor is mine. Lian Song bowed to her. Qing Qui is blessed to have the most beauties on all realms. Not to mention the most intelligent queen. I have heard all the ongoing development here in Qing Qui. I must say we are hugely impressed with your highness abilities to bring all the modern prosperity to your kingdom. We must meet near in the future. I am interested in some of your designs."

"Thank you, Third Prince, for your complement. Qing Qui feels fortunate to have such a strong alliance with the heavenly realm. Qing Qui prosperity is due to their citizens and their hard work. I cannot take all the credit by myself. On behalf of my people, we thank you for noticing. Please send me the date that you wish to meet so I can write it down in my schedule. She smiled and curtsied again."

Si Ming was admiring Feng Jiu's beauty. He could not believe how much she has grown. He had to blink twice. "Your highness it's been a while since we have the honor of your presence."

"Thank you, Si Ming. I missed you too as well. It's a pleasure to see you." She smiled and curtsied to him. If you all please follow me inside, the bride is ready.

Inside the fox den all the Bai Clan were wearing their blue ceremonial robes. Bai Qian was waiting at the center of the receiving hall with her parents to her side.

Lian Song read the wedding edit out loud to all while Mo Yan was admiring his beloved seventeen. He was happy for her and his twin brother Ye Hua finally getting married.

Lian Song gave the wedding scroll to Si Ming and Si Ming gave the scroll to Bai Zhi in front of Zhe Yan. The receiving ceremony concluded.

Mo Yan proceeded to take Bai Qian hand to escort her to the bride carriage. Behind them Lian Song, Si Ming, Zhe Yan, Feng Jiu and all of Bai Qian family proceeded to walk out of Qing Qui to join in the wedding procession. All Qing Qui citizens were outside forming two rows as to salute their former queen while blessing her to her road to blissful happiness.

On their way to heaven, Feng Jiu's heart was beating fast. At the entrance of the heaven gate, Ali was waiting for the wedding procession of his mother to escort them to the main hall palace where the ceremony was going to take place. It was a beautiful procession, all the palace imperial guards formed two rows to welcome their future mistress. All the royal family and high deities were at the main hall waiting for Bai Qian arrival. When they reached the stairs. Mo Yan proceeded to take one of Bai Qian hands while Ali took her other mother's hand. Bai Qian was covered by a white veil, her beautiful white embroidered dress with foxes all over them with a long train covered the stairs while she was walking up.

Inside the main hall Tianjun was up on his golden throne along with Ye Hua. One level below the throne was Dong Hua Dijun handsomely dressed in a ceremonial embroidered purple robe. He was attentively looking over to the bride procession. He knew his beloved was coming with them. He could not wait to see her.

The announcer proclaimed: The auspicious hour has come, the bride has finally arrived.

All eyes were on Bai Qian, her father Bai Zhi was given her away to Ye Hua. Ali was walking in front of them carrying the wedding rings. When they reached the throne, Ali stepped aside, and Bai Zhi placed her hand on Ye Hua's hand. After all the required bows and the exchange of rings. Ye Hua broke royal protocol, and removed Bai Qian's veil, he couldn't contain his emotions. He wanted to finally see his wife. His eyes were teary, he confessed his love to her in front of everyone and gave her a passionate kiss. Everyone applauded them. Feng Jiu contemplated their happiness from a distance. She was trying to avoid Dijun's eyes.

Ye Hua escorted his wife to their wedding chamber while all their guests proceeded to the great reception hall to enjoy the wedding banquet. The festivities will be going for seven days.

Feng Jiu felt happy for her aunt. When they were all at the reception hall, the atmosphere was lively with music and people were having a good time. She couldn't avoid becoming the center of attention. Her beauty took all young immortals away, they were attracted to her like bees to honey competing to gain her affection. She was struggling not to lose her composure.

"Oh no, not again. I need to escape this scenery here and quick. Where are my brothers?" She happened to see Zi Lan and she waved at him from the distance. He understood her predicament, so he came to aid his sister.

"Excuse me your highness" Cang Yi intercepted Zi Lan. "May I have the honor to spend some time with you?" Zi Lan frowned but gave him space leaving Feng Jiu alone with Cang Yi. She couldn't bring shame to Qing Qui so she had no alternative but to accept.

"Traitor!!", she whispered to Zi Lan, he laughed at her.

Cang Yi tried to take Feng Jiu's hand to escort her to their seating area but she simply walked in front of him refusing to touch him. Everyone was watching their interaction. Specially Bai Yi. He was hoping that Feng Jiu will give him a chance to know him better. Cang Yi was bold indeed, he was not giving up so easy. When they were about to sit, someone tapped Cang Yi shoulder. It was no other than Dong Hua Dijun.

"I should have the great honor to speak with Qing Qui's Queen first" Cang Yi couldn't believe his bad luck. He couldn't refuse him; it would bring shame to his house and clan.

"Of course, you may Dijun", as he bowed to the former emperor and left them alone.

"Dijun?" Feng Jiu looked up to him surprised to see him.

"Jiu'er, you look breathtaking." He was admiring her beauty from head to toe.

"Thank you for coming to my rescue. I understand if you don't wish to spend some time with me." Her voice had a bit of sadness. She was waiting for him to send her away again.

"Who said that I don't want to spend time with you? Didn't I come to do just that?"

Feng Jiu's face turned red. He loved her reaction when he teased her. Oh how he missed her.

"May I?"

"Huh, may you what?" Feng Jiu looked at him confused.

"Let's sit." Dijun delicately placed his hand to hold her hand and lead her outside on a seating area.

Feng Jiu was looking at Dijun with her doe eyes. She was staring at his black eyes, studying his handsome face. They were staring at each other too much. So Dijun decided to break the silence while they were walking. Their silence was a bit awkward in public. Everyone was watching them. Bai Yi's face was red with anger. He didn't like that Dijun interrupted Cang Yi.

"How you been Jiu'er? I've heard that you been busy."

She smiled at him. "Yes I've been busy. How about you?"

"Not as busy as you." He was staring at her face, her birthmark, her pouty lips. Her smell was overwhelming to him. He was taking it all in.

Her cheeks turned red again.

"May I know the reason as of why you are blushing?" He knew why.

"You have that effect on me Dijun." He gave her a smile.

Everyone could not believe that Dijun was talking with Qing Qui's Queen. Dijun spend his time with her all night long. He would not let anyone come near her. Cang Yi was patiently waiting for his turn at the other side of the hall. He was drinking too much.

"Are you tired?"

"A little?"

"Do you want me to go?"

"If you go now, you will be feeding me back to the wolves. Are you going to be that cruel with me? May Dijun show me some mercy please." She smiled at him.

"Then let the wolves fight over with me for this sheep." Dijun smiled back at her.

"Dijun is most merciful." She sarcastically responded while batting her eyes to him.

"I can be merciful when I want to be merciful. And tonight, I decided to be merciful with the most beautiful sheep or should I say fox?"

"Who can guarantee me that I'm not with the most ferocious wolf of the pack?" She was seductively teasing Dijun.

"Because this ferocious wolf is the Alpha and he knows his sheep very well." "Oh it's on little fox" Dijun thought.

Feng Jiu was biting her lower lip. "I'm afraid this sheep is well guarded." "Two can play that game." Feng Jiu said in her mind.

Dijun smiled at her thoughts. "Then I must make a way to break the guard and steal this lovely sheep." He whispered at her ear.

That did it. Feng Jiu felt a current running thru her body, she remained silent while blushing, she could not believe his shameless. She was lost of words to reply his brazen retort.

"Did a cat got your tongue?" He was laughing at her. A rare scene for their spectators. Everyone was gasping at Dijun's laughter.

"More like a wolf", she whispered while refusing to face him. He enjoyed teasing her more than everything. She was getting good at her responses. They continue their chat for the rest of the night. Teasing each other now and then during their conversation.

It was getting late, many of the guests retired from the reception hall including Feng Jiu's family. There were a few maids clearing the tables and of course Cang Yi who fell asleep on a table waiting for his turn. The alcohol took effect on him.

The musicians stopped playing at Dijun's request. He saw his little fox struggling to stay awake.

"It was an honor to spend some time with you Jiu'er. Should I escort you to where you are staying? You seem to need assistance."

Feng Jiu was tired, and she could not remember her way back to Ali's chambers.

"Where are you staying Jiu'er?"

"At Ali's place" she mumbled.

"Oh, it's near my place. I can take you there if...." and Feng Jiu fainted in his arms. She was exhausted.

Dijun decided to carry her over Ali's place. She was lighter than he remembers. Her small snore was an adorable sound to his ears. She was a sweet hot mess in his arms. Her scent invaded his senses. He was pleased to have her in his arms once again. When the imperial guards saw Dijun carrying Qing Qui's Queen they all bowed down. He gave them a deadly stare warning them not to spread any rumors about what they saw.

He then asked the maids where her room was. When they arrived at her room, he placed Feng Jiu in her bed. Covered her with a blanket. He stayed for a couple of minutes. He couldn't help himself. Her beauty was his demise. He inhaled her scent once again; caressed her lovely face and gave her a soft kiss on her birthmark. She looked so beautiful even when she sleeps. The maids gasped when they saw Dijun kissing the queen's forehead.

"Good night Jiu'er, I will see you tomorrow my mischievous little fox." Dijun gave her a sweet smile before he got up to leave.

"Good night Dijun" Feng Jiu mumbled at her sleep while turning around kicking her blanket.

Dijun stopped at his tracks. He turned around and squinted his eyes to make sure she was asleep. Then he remembered that she is always been a wild sleeper and often talk in her sleep. He chuckled at her before leaving her room.

Feng Jiu widely smiled and continue to sleep.
