A Crown for a Tail

Mischief in the Fox Den

Princess Meis first night with Ye Hua and Bai Qian was just as eventful as her arrival. Having already been informed of the events that had led to her appearance, Mi Gu was more than prepared to ensure her arrival was memorable.

Not only had he prepared her sleeping quarters, but Bai Qians family ensured that her stay was not only comfortable, but as the perfect hosts of such an important Princess, they would allow her to see a part of their lives that no one outside of the Fox Den had ever seen.

No sooner had they broken through the barrier to Qing Qiu, then Bai Qian immediately began to point out the landmarks and vast mountain ranges that surrounded them. "The whole of Qing Qiu is so widely spread, that it would take years to see it all." she stated proudly as she led her guest to the main den.

However, the sudden appearance of Mi Gu barely covered in a large leaf that was strategically placed to maintain his decorum, while the rest of him was completely naked, took even Bai Qian surprise. Though the look on Princess Meis face was priceless. Wide eyed and a little afraid of the sudden appearance of a half naked tree sprite, she backed away from the entrance.

"Oh don't mind him." Bai Qian said giving him a wide knowing smile, now that she understood what was going on. "This is Mi Gu, my servant." she continued airily as Mi Gus wide eyes honed in on Princess Mei.

And before anyone knew what was happening, Mi Gu grabbed her into his arms and hugged her. "A real Princess!" he squealed bouncing them both up and down before sniffing her hair and face excitedly. And if that wasn't enough to scare her, which by now she was, he lifted her up into the air to look at her a little more closely.

Terrified, she screamed as Mi Gu very slowly protruded his tongue as far as it would go. Ensuring that she got a full view of his gaping mouth as his tongue slowly lowered to well below his chin, he began to drool and before she could take a breath from her high-pitched scream, he ran his tongue up the full length of her face before suddenly dropping her.

Coughing and spluttering Bai Qian quickly patted his back. "Mi Gu, how many times have I told you not to lick our guests, it's very rude." she chided him softly, while Ye Hua turned slightly to hide his rising laughter he knew would escape him if the tree sprite continued.

Still coughing and hacking, Mi Gus body suddenly lurched forward as he spat up a large globulous mass. "Hair ball." he winced as his eyes raked the Princess in disgust who looked as if she were about to faint.

"That will teach you for licking people Mi Gu. Please try to behave, Princess Mei is a guest as I said, so you will have to be on your best behaviour." She berated him soundly before linking her arm with a now terrified Princess and dragging her into the Den.

"Princess Mei. Welcome to the Fox Den." Her mother said as they entered, but no sooner had her mother turned around, then Ye Hua lurched back out the entrance coughing madly.

Wearing only her undergarments and with her normally beautiful coiffured hair out and flowing free, she looked as if she had just woken up.

Walking towards her smiling, she held out her hand in welcome. "I do apologize for not staying long enough to meet you at the Celestial Palace, but we are a reclusive people. Being out in public is quite taxing." She said smiling brightly, as she took the stunned girls hand and led her into the main den.

If Princess Mei was surprised at the tree sprites welcome and the Empress's lack of garments, she almost choked when the men came into view.

Sprawled out on the seating wearing the barest of pants he could find and nothing else, the Fox Emperor looked up casually. Raising his wine cup over his large round naked stomach at her entrance, he greeted her warmly before burping as loud as he could, and being a big man, it was quite explosive. Then completely ignoring her, he went back to drinking, While Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen cuddled together on the opposite seat making moony eyes at each other. Giving her only a fleeting glance, they turned back to lose themselves in each other once again.
