Chapter 404 Uncle Is Really Kindhearted

Unlike Jiang Liyan, Ji Lingshu's temper is not reserved, nor is he as unrestrained as Changyi. He always gives people a feeling of wanting to get close, and in the closeness, there is a slight estrangement.

This is not a contradiction, it's as if her innate temperament only makes people think that she has a temperament that attracts people to get close, but her noble birth makes her superior, making people feel awed and alienated.

Zuo Daoqi had already been immune to this, and after he saluted, his gaze stayed on Ji Lingshu.

As for Changyi, she has a simple nature and has basically become Ji Lingshu's 'cannon fodder' now. She claims to be resourceful, but in the palace fight, whether it is the Queen Mother or Ji Lingshu, she probably has no idea that she will be sold. what happened.

Zuo Daoqi looked at Ji Lingshu, his lips twitched, and he didn't know what to say.

'I-kun is back? '

This is too direct.

Ji Lingshu met his gaze, and the faint smile in her eyes quickly disappeared. She was not happy that Zuo Daoqi left without saying goodbye when he went to the southeast, so she said softly.

"It seems that the Zuo County man has gained a lot from this trip. Is it true that I will have to salute Mr. Zuo next time we meet?"

Zuo Dodge trembled all over, he raised his head slightly, and looked at Ji Lingshu from the corner of his eye.

'broken…'

"The princess was joking, this trip to the southeast, I have achieved today's achievements, thanks to the princess, the princess defeated the evil minister."

A minister is not a courtier, and there is already something in it.

Ji Lingshu's eyes flickered, and he gave Zuo Dodge a meaningful look, but didn't speak again.

It was Changyi who said stupidly, "What did she do for you?"

Zuo Daoqi turned around and cupped his fists respectfully, "It's also related to Princess Changyi. A few days ago, I had a swim with the two princesses in Beijing and grilled fish. chance."

"The fish is big?" Changyi's eyes widened. This kind of implicit praise from the side is her favorite.

Just a little bit of limpid stupidity.

"Exactly, big fish, big fish, isn't the Sun family the biggest fish in Nansu City?"

Changyi rolled his eyes slightly, looked at Zuo Daoqi with a satisfied face after getting up, nodded slightly, "That's right, it seems that it's thanks to Ben Gong and Xi Yuan's reminder."

Ji Lingshu turned her head slightly, Changyi's appearance always made her want to do something.

It is too much.

At sunset and dusk, the distant mountains are like Daisy.

The carriage drove slowly, and Fa Hai's huge body walked on the side of the official road, awakening countless birds and beasts in the forest.

Standing on top of Fahai's head, Changyi was smiling very happily. He was beautifully dressed, his graceful figure danced gracefully, and his slightly flat chest seemed so perfect at this moment.

"Zuo Daoqi, where did you catch this little snake? I'll also catch one for Ben Gong some other day. You're so obedient!"

"Quick, go over there."

Zuo Daoqi's expression remained unchanged, and he sat opposite Ji Lingshu in the carriage.

Instead, through the window, one could see whether there was helplessness flashing through Fa Hai's cold vertical pupils.

Tangtang climbed to the 'Tianlong', and was tossed like this by a woman.

But what can I do? It's all the master's task.

Ji Lingshu just took a glance, then looked away, and then said casually, "Uncle is finally planning to be a man."

Zuo Daoqi's face froze. He remembered that he didn't seem to have told Ji Lingshu his secret, right?

Unexpectedly, Ji Lingshu's next words made his whole body tense up.

"It's just that, if uncle wants to go to the palace to meet the queen mother again, it won't be so easy."

She bit the word 'tryst' very hard, it seemed to be emotional, but it seemed to be hatred.

Zuo Daoqi wasn't sure, but Ji Lingshu just said these words, cold sweat was dripping down his forehead, and he didn't care about these things, "Ling... Lingshu, what are you talking about? What are you talking about as a man, meeting the Queen Mother..."

"Oh? Uncle isn't going to be a man anymore?"

Ji Lingshu's light words had no emotion, but Zuo Daoqi felt the deep banter contained in them.

The carriage swayed, and the girl's black hair on the temples swayed regularly, but the girl's face was stretched and graceful, and she was no longer a child in the past. Her eyes were cunning and full of wisdom, and a hint of stubbornness between her eyebrows turned into a heroic spirit was just right, making her look like a girl. The character does not destroy the beauty of its face.

From the sculpting of the facial features to everything was just right, it attracted the heartbeat of the setting sun outside the window, as if it was returning to the light, the carriage was a little brighter.

"It seems that you have never seen my uncle, my man."

The girl slightly puffed up her chest, with a defiant look, she said provocatively, "Then tell me to take a look."

She was straightforward, and Zuo Dodge was cowardly without concealing it.

He muttered softly, "There are two flies in the sky."

Ji Lingshu's neck was slightly red, and he smiled lightly between his brows. Just as he was about to speak, Changyi poked his head in at this moment.

"Come on Xiyuan, this little snake is really smart, let's take it to scare that old hag!"

Ji Lingshu inherited the tranquility and calmness of the imperial concubine, and picked up the teacup that Cai'er had put down for a long time, and put it to her lips, "No, sister, don't talk nonsense outside."

Changyi murmured, clasping Fahai's horns with both hands, "It's boring, Fahai, let's go!"

Zuo Daoqi couldn't help being curious about the old witch they were talking about, but he had already guessed who the 'old witch' was.

He couldn't help but panic.

This is a business trip, and the old nest seems to be taken away.

"It will take more than an hour to reach the capital at our speed. If you have nothing to do, uncle may as well talk about the things in Nansu City. I am very curious about the first disciple of the Wanjian Sect Yujian."

Zuo Daoqi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.

The relationship between him and Li Yinglian is that of the eldest sister and the younger brother, they are innocent, and they will say what they say.

"As for the matter in Nansu City, if you want to come to Lingshu, you have read the memorabilia I sent, so there is no need to say more. As for the head of the Wanjian Sect, Li Yinglian, who is already yin at a young age, he has lived up to his reputation. , quite a bit of a banished immortal, but his temper is a bit strange."

He deliberately said that it was a trick here.

Unexpectedly, Ji Lingshu didn't want to know at all, and said again, "If that's the case, it's just like what my uncle said, and it's worthy of my reputation."

"That's, it's just..."

"I heard that when my uncle went to the southeast, he brought a woman with him. Can you tell me about it?"

Zuo Dodge suddenly raised his head and opened his mouth slightly.

"Just...just a normal friend."

"Ordinary friends? How did I hear that the Imperial Envoy brought the souls of the people of Nansu City to escape, and he took his Taoist companions with him. I heard that a 'brother-in-law' also died."

Grass!

Where did the news come from her!

Zuo Dodge couldn't help cursing inwardly. Facing Ji Lingshu, who had grown up and matured, he found that he was completely powerless to fight after being separated from her for such a short time.

"It's all rumored by outsiders. That friend did have a younger brother who was beheaded in Nansu City. In order to lie to his stupid younger brother and prevent him from flying out of his wits, I had no choice but to cooperate with her and tell a white lie."

Zuo Daoqi showed a bit of pity on his face, as if he was really feeling sorry for Jiang Yueluo's experience.

"Mother is right, uncle is really kind-hearted." Ji Lingshu's words were perfunctory.

I don't know if she believed it or not.

Ji Lingshu seemed to feel that the excitement wasn't enough, and she sipped tea with her red lips, "I went to Ziguangfang a few days ago and saw my uncle's demon-locking tower in the mansion. I think my uncle's cultivation has already reached the peak, and he can't even travel. Bring a natal magic weapon..."

Her eyes were flat and her tone was relaxed, but she spoke words that made Zuo Dodge tremble all over.

Involuntarily, Zuo Dodge became a little stiff.

Charged.

It's over, he was really stolen!

When I saw the Demon Locking Tower, it seemed that I had taught Ji Lingshu some control formulas before so I could not die, right?

She won't find Zhu Hongyan, will she?

"Ling... Lingshu, you..."

He has always boasted that he is quite articulate, but at this moment he is speaking with a bit of a stutter.

"Uncle, guess what I found in the demon-locking tower? An injured sister accidentally entered your tower. She probably thought there was some treasure in it." Ji Lingshu said while laughing, "Uncle, you really It's too bad, no wonder you put Chongbao at home, so you want to be a trap to catch stupid thieves?"

Zuo Dodge felt a little weak, this was more than stealing, he was about to push the crystal.

"You...you, ahem, Lingshu, people have to have some secrets, otherwise..."

"Huh? Isn't the Demon Locking Tower just for locking demons? It just so happens that the demon is a woman, who just so happens to be pretty good-looking, and just so happens...to be seen by someone." Ji Lingshu had a sly face, her eyes curved like crescent moons.

Zuo Dodge had nothing to say, he desperately wanted to end this topic.

It was clear that Ji Lingshu didn't mean "catch rape" inside or outside the words, but he felt the moral deviation of "catch rape" everywhere.

"Ahem, Lingshu, I've thought about the things in Nansu City, and there are still some joints I haven't figured out. Please help me think about it."

"Uncle, aren't you worried that the female demon will destroy the things in your house? I heard from Daoist Changmei that the female demon is about to become a ghost." Naturally, Ji Lingshu didn't want him to get away from the topic so easily.

Zuo Daoqi sneered, "With you Lingshu here, whoever dares to make trouble in my house, who doesn't know that I am under the cover of Lingshu."

Ji Lingshu's eyes were even more curved, and the long eyelashes fluttered like water waves, making people feel pitiful.

Just thinking about what the woman said just now, Zuo Daoqi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

What Zhang Wuji's mother said was so right, the more beautiful a woman is, the more deceitful she is.

Judging from Ji Lingshu's emotions, she probably didn't do anything to Zhu Hongyan, and she was probably accepted as a 'little brother' just like Changyi. Thinking of this, Zuo Daoqi was slightly relieved.

As for Zhu Hongyan being a demon cultivator, how violent, ferocious, and murderous without blinking an eye, would it be detrimental to Ji Lingshu.

He wasn't worried at all. After all, apart from Ji Lingshu's own strength, as far as her "guardians" were concerned, even if Zhu Hongyan really broke through the Yin God, she was not something she could touch.

According to his estimate, Changmei is probably a big heavenly yin god, not the simplest kind of big heaven.

Ji Lingshu seemed to be intentionally 'beating' Zuo Daoqi, leaving aside the topic of 'men', which even made Zuo Daoqi feel a little grateful for it.

Damn, I won't be KFC, right?

He couldn't help looking at Ji Lingshu from the corner of his eye, wondering if she knew about Xinyue.

I'm really panicking now.

"What has Lingshu been doing these days, have you visited your sister?"

As a last resort, he had no choice but to show off the image of a good uncle, and asked Ji Lingshu kindly and intimately.

Ji Lingshu smiled lightly, her eyes seemed to be filled with a divine light that could see through his careful thoughts, "What can a weak woman do? Play with flowers and plants with Changyi all day, and occasionally go to Yuchen Palace to see the Queen Mother. A few days ago, She still misses you."

Left Dodge fidgets.

He finally understood that today's Ji Lingshu was just venting his dissatisfaction, annoyed that he didn't take her with him to the southeast.

Fortunately, he finally saw the city gate of Kyoto. Zuo Daoqi had never felt that the majestic capital in front of him was so cute.

Standing up very calmly, he said.

"Lingshu, I'll go get ready first. I think His Majesty has received the news of entering the capital. I have to tell him what happened in Nansu City face to face."

Ji Lingshu was noncommittal, glanced slightly, and said when Zuo Dodge was about to get off the carriage.

"When will uncle go to Taihuang Mountain to see mother?"

Zuo Dodge paused, "I'll go in a few days."

Counting the days, it seems that it has indeed been a long time since I saw the imperial concubine, and I miss her so much.

He thought of the imperial concubine's ruddy lips, and couldn't help but move his gaze to Ji Lingshu, sweeping her lips.

It seems that there is no difference.

After getting off the carriage, Changyi had already taken Fahai to nowhere, but seeing that there were a lot fewer guards around the carriage, and it was the capital city, Zuo Daoqi was not too worried.

A young eunuch from the Yellow Gate had already stood at the gate of the city waiting for a long time. When he saw the princess carriage, he kept looking around on tiptoe. When he saw Zuo Daoqi, he trotted over.

"The little one has met Master Zuo, Your Majesty is here to invite you."

——

In the bedroom, Emperor Zhengming sat cross-legged, breathing out with his eyes closed, as if he was practicing.

If outsiders saw it, they would probably be shocked. The Zhengming Emperor Ji Lingjun had no cultivation qualifications, and his body was weak since he was a child.

An eunuch walked quickly to the threshold, bowed his head and did not make any sound.

The old eunuch standing beside Emperor Zhengming glanced at the door, then at the emperor intently, and then trotted out, "What's the matter?"

The little eunuch bowed his head and whispered a few words.

The old eunuch frowned slightly, then waved his hand away, walked into the hall lightly, and stood quietly aside.

It wasn't until Emperor Zhengming breathed out a mouthful of cloudy air and opened his eyes that he stepped forward cautiously.

"His Majesty."

"Zuo Daoqi has entered the city. Xiaodongzi has just welcomed Mr. Zuo outside the Meridian Gate, waiting for His Majesty to summon him."

Emperor Zhengming nodded, and then said, "Why didn't Liu Xi come back?"

"Master Zuo drove into the city with the carriage of the two princesses. There is no news from Eunuch Liu yet."

Emperor Zhengming narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, "Let's call Zuo Daoqi into the palace first, let him come to the study."

The old eunuch respectfully said yes, turned around and walked out.

Emperor Zhengming had no expression on his face, like a deep and terrifying sculpture.

"Grandfather, I will definitely protect the country you left behind."

"Don't worry, that thief Confucianism and my good brother are not good people, Lingjun, you have to be careful."

In the silent and deserted hall, a vicissitudes of life and gentle voice came from nowhere, containing an inspiring power.

Emperor Zhengming nodded slightly.
