"This is natural. I promised you that I will definitely do it!" Yan Qingzheng said proudly.
"But...it's only been ten years..." Hong Li looked at Yan Qingzheng with a complicated expression. The girl he looked down upon at the beginning has grown to such an extent in the past few years!
To me, these ten years are just a short dream, but this girl has already taken such a big step!
She couldn't tell whether it was envy, jealousy, or happiness. Hong Li couldn't sort out her thoughts, couldn't tell what her feelings were, and couldn't express them accurately. She could only take a deep breath and exhale slowly.
Looking at Xiao Nian and others, her eyes flickered, and she felt a trace of familiar immortal energy in them.
Hong Li was moved in his heart, but then he chuckled and shook his head. It was impossible. If he really was the former owner, then the current Yuling Realm would never be recognized as the owner.
"Come with me. Once you get in, you can choose a suitable environment. If you have any questions, you can come to me." Hong Li paused and added, "But try not to disturb me."
She has been alone for these years. Although she is a little lonely, she is also used to being clean.
Then she glanced at Yan Qingzheng and said, "Then I'll go in."
The red carp came out for the first time. Although he was curious about the outside world, he was also a little panicked for a moment.
After all, she has never left the realm of spiritual control since she opened her spiritual wisdom.
Leaving the familiar environment made her a little uneasy, and the spiritual energy in the outside world was too thin. She needed to go back and do more psychological construction before she could come out again.
"Contact me if you want to come out. They don't have to worry too much." Yan Qingzheng instructed.
"Yes!" Hong Li nodded, taking Xiao Nian and the others into the spirit-controlling realm.
Yan Qing was putting the Yuling Realm away and putting it on his hand again. The red dots inside were so subtle that they couldn't be seen.
The rest has not changed much. The red carp can only show its position on the bracelet because it is a treasure of the secret realm. As for Xiao Nian and the others who have just entered, there will be no changes in the bracelet of the Yuling Realm.
"It's over here, let's go back." Yan Qing was stretching and holding Rong Che's arm.
"good."
When the two returned to the other courtyard, they were told that Tong Yao was here.
"Oh? She's finally here!" Yan Qingzheng was very happy, and Tong Yao was also the force she hoped to join in the new sect. After all, although her level was not that good, her vision and planning skills were pretty good.
Tong Yao was talking to Yan Xi and his wife in the living room. When she saw Yan Qing and Rong Che, she stood up to say hello. She still can't change some of the habits she developed when she was a national master, such as the way she addressed Rong Che.
"I have met His Highness the Prince!"
"No need to be polite." Rong Che said lightly. He didn't know how to call Tong Yao. After all, Qing'er had called her "Tong Aunt" first, but now she felt awkward calling her sister, and his imperial brother wanted to give Tong Yao to her.
Received……
"What have you been doing these days, and why are you here?" Yan Qingzheng asked warmly.
Tong Yao looked a little embarrassed. She moved uneasily, glanced at Yan Xi and his wife, and then said, "Sorry, I didn't know that Master Xiaoyan was injured before, so I couldn't do anything to help."
She was in a separate courtyard outside the city, and no one really conveyed this news to her.
"Don't take it to heart, this is a Xuanmen matter, and you don't need to get involved." Yan Qing waved his hand.
"How long can you stay here this time? Do you still want to go back?" Yan Qingzheng asked again.
"Uh... stay... stay for a few days and see." Tong Yao said with twinkling eyes.
Yan Qing noticed something was wrong and was about to ask when Nalan Lianyue coughed lightly and interrupted her: "Okay, Tong Yao has come all the way. It's not too late to arrange a place for her first and then ask."
Yan Qingzheng had no choice but to shut up and quickly called Yunli to arrange for Tong Yao to stay in the guest house.
She felt that Tong Yao was obviously relieved.
A banquet was held at night to give Tong Yao a clean slate.
Tong Yao drank too much without knowing it, and Yan Qing quickly arranged for her servants to take her back to the guest house.
There are very few servants in the other courtyard now, and they are all temporarily hired at Dongling Pass. Rong Che has asked Butler Liu to train a group of servants, and they will be sent to them after a while.
Yan Qingzheng thought that Tong Yao's condition was not quite right, so he went to find Nalan Lianyue.
"I thought it was time for you to come too." Nalan Lianyue knew her little daughter's character well and said with a smile when she saw her.
"Mom, please tell me quickly, my daughter is so curious!"
Yan Qing was saying coquettishly that Tong Yao's situation was very similar to the way she used to be restless when she did something bad.
Seeing this, Yan Xi pursed her lips and smiled vaguely, stood up and said, "I'm going to go talk to my son-in-law."
Yan Qingzheng raised his eyebrows. This matter was definitely a private matter, and it was inconvenient for his father to participate, so he avoided it.
She immediately looked at Nalan Lianyue with piercing eyes, the fire of gossip burning brightly.
Nalan Lianyue sighed first and then said: "She still followed the emperor after all!"
Then he told Yan Qingzheng exactly what he had said today. After all, Tong Yao was simple-minded. No matter what level Nalan Lianyue was, it was easy for her to talk about everything in detail. When Yan Qingzheng came back, she had just
After saying that, I realized why I had done all the tricks, so I was so restless.
It turned out that after Yan Xi and others left, the emperor still felt uncomfortable in his heart. He had nowhere to express his reluctance, and Xuanmen's problems would no longer involve the royal family, so he went to another courtyard incognito to complain to Tong Yao.
Tong Yao basically had no resistance to the emperor, especially since the emperor looked melancholy, worried about Yan Xi's injury, and worried about whether what they planned to do here would succeed.
This kind of affectionate attitude made Tong Yao's resistance to the emperor much lighter.
When the emperor was a little tipsy and asked her suggestively if he could stay overnight, she hesitated...
The emperor immediately stood up and said: "Then I will go back to the palace. Today is the happiest day for me in these days. I have to come to you to relax. You can rest early, I'm leaving."
The emperor patted Tong Yao's hand and walked away with a smile, but he staggered...
Tong Yao looked worried from behind, but Hong Wen seemed to be a little old, and almost couldn't catch the emperor several times.
After the emperor left, Tong Yao was a little confused and ran up to the roof to look at the moon alone.
Then she fell asleep on the roof, and then she got cold and was ill for several days.
The emperor went to visit her again. Luo Li chatted for a long time, expressing concerns and complaints, and even personally fed her some decoction. Tong Yao's eyes turned red with emotion, and she felt a little better.
It is said that the emperor's character is really straightforward. He even said to Tong Yao: "If you were still a national master and I didn't know that you were a woman, I wouldn't worry about you. At most, I would send an imperial doctor to take a look at you.
I blame you in my heart for wasting time!"
Tong Yao sighed after hearing this and felt aggrieved. She thought it was not because you made me confused that I did the stupid thing of falling asleep on the roof!
But the emperor changed the topic and said immediately: "Now that I know you are a woman and have you in my heart, I have begun to feel sorry for you. Every time you were sick, there was no caring person to accompany you. You should
How sad and lonely!”
The emperor sighed deeply, but suddenly, like the bright sunshine in spring, it warmed Tong Yao's long-cold heart.
When she said this, Nalan Lianyue couldn't help but shake her head. The emperor's temperament was such that people couldn't completely dislike him.
Because you can feel that whether he cares for you or is attached to you, it is sincere and comes from the bottom of his heart.
So even though she looked down on his tendency to focus on superficial appearance, Yan Xi still never left him.
Nalan Lianyue felt helpless: "I see, if your sect here is not established quickly to keep your father busy, he will not be able to help but go back to see the emperor!"
Yan Qingzheng said in a funny tone: "Why, there is a hint of sourness in what mother said!"
Nalan Lianyue was startled, and then gave her daughter a look: "There's no sourness there! It's nonsense! I just feel a little envious of the... kind of... care between them that goes beyond being a monarch or a friend!"
"Are you concerned?" Yan Qing pouted, not understanding.
"Why, Rong Che never talked about his imperial brother?"
Yan Qing was thinking about it, but they really didn't discuss the topic of the emperor.
She shook her head, but suddenly paused. She realized that sometimes Rong Che would look to the west. Isn't that the direction of the capital?
"Maybe we should go back and take a look. There are not only the people they care about there, but also our relatives!"
When Yan Qing was saying this, he felt that he could suddenly understand the thoughts of some cultivators.
Caring about relatives and friends will indeed take up a large part of energy and time for cultivators who are dedicated to cultivation. If relatives and friends cannot cultivate and live as long as themselves, then every news of the death of a relative will have a negative impact on the cultivator's xinxing.
It is an ordeal and a blow.
Therefore, there is a certain reason why cultivators should cut off their worldly ties.
"We digress, let's talk about Tong Yao." Nalan Lianyue brought the topic back.
Later, Tong Yao's thoughts were all about the emperor in those days, but the emperor was busy with government affairs and did not see her for more than a month.
Tong Yao went to the capital to relax.
Unknowingly, I arrived at the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
After thinking about it for a while, she still didn't go in. When she came to her senses, she was already standing in front of the palace gate.
The palace gate guard looked at her in a daze, his eyes twitching.
You said to chase her away, but she stood a little outside the restricted area. You said to leave her alone, but she just stared at the palace gate!
The guard who really didn't know what to do reported the incident to his superiors, and then reported it level by level.
Hong Wen was about to deliver the edict when he rode out of the palace gate and saw a woman standing in a daze in the middle of the road. He frowned and was about to reprimand, but suddenly he saw her face clearly...
Hong Wen quickly reined in his horse, because it was too sudden and his movements were a little awkward.
"Guo... why are you here? Why don't you go in? The emperor will be happy to see you!" Hong Wen knew that the person in front of him was a national preceptor before, but later he almost became a noble concubine!
Currently, he is a person who is dear to the Emperor’s heart!
