I think there is someone
Praying for someone
I can slightly hear the love poem
Written in the silence
I wish it flies to you
And arrives to your place in time...
- love poem (IU)

Dijun went after her. She was standing outside the fox den scratching her head. He slowly approached her, "revenge is indeed sweet princess of Qingqiu, Me and my son were merely playing a prank on you. Siming is a friend of mine and I heard from your grandfather that you love pranks." He glanced at her expectantly hoping that she was just pretending to lose her memory but she showed no signs of recognition. She was distant and polite. She would not be able to handle the truth in her fragile mental state. He would help her recover first, truth could wait. What exactly had happened yesterday, she should have ascended after bearing the lightning bolts. Thankfully her shield protected her from injuries.

"May I ask who are you?" Purple robe and silver hair, he wasn't Donghua Dijun was he? Couldn't be. Donghua Dijun was single, he did not have son and such a revered god wouldn't take revenge on her for Siming. Or would he?

"You really do not know me? Oh but then I haven't been to Qingqiu in ages and you weren't even born when your family fought alongside me against Miao Luo. Let me introduce....

"Donghua Dijun!!!! Impossible " How can it be.

"Why? You can check with your grandfather." What exactly happened yesterday

"Erm, so this is not a trick, you really are Donghua Dijun. Fengjiu apologises for being impolite, my greetings to Dijun." She bowed respectfully. Excusing herself she walked back to her room. Donghua followed her, "don't worry I am here to pick up my son, he is still asleep on your bed" he responded to her questioning look.

Bai Gungun rolled the blanket snugly around himself, "father Gungun wants to sleep here next to mother, I won't go" almost fainting on being called mother again she protested, "hey! You can stop now, I know you have been playing a prank on me. I am not your mother, your mother will get angry if she hears that you have been calling me mother."

" I know I fought with you yesterday and said mortal mothers are nicer to their children, but really jiujiu you are taking this too far." He retorted. "Jiujiu! I just met you and while you are Dijun's son, don't you think you must address a senior respectfully? You must address me as Your highness. Go back with your father, don't make a fuss."

Cao Cao who was perched in the outer yard repeated, "Jiujiu, your highness, don't make a fuss." This irritated Fengjiu even more, "stupid parrot! Shoo you nasty bird or I will roast you for lunch." Hearing her Cao Cao flew away and hid in the apple tree behind the den.

"Mother how can you roast my Cao Cao, you are so mean." Gun gun resorted to the best trick in his arsenal and started crying loudly. But to his surprise jiujiu only gave a look to father and requested, "Dijun, if its not too much trouble, I request you to please take your son and leave, I wish to go back to sleep." And despite his protests and all his efforts to cling to Fengjiu, he was forcibly taken away and had to make do by sleeping in his great grandmother's lap.

Zhe Yan came to check on Fengjiu. He and Donghua agreed that it was best if Fengjiu was not informed that she was amnesiac. They conferred with the family and decided that for now they would let her be. She needed to regain her cultivation before any treatment could be administered to her. Dijun suggested feeding his blood to her as he had in the past but Zhe Yan advised him against it. Her body might not accept another's cultivation. They would have to look for other ways to help her.
