Just when the two sides were about to take action, a familiar and steady voice came from the side of the street, and Qian Yanjun and Hall Master Hu's attention simultaneously shifted to the sudden appearance of the visitor.
"Hey, it's Mr. Keqing from our family!"
Hutao opened her plum blossom eyes wide, raised a proud smile on her lips, and looked at Zhongli who was walking towards the two groups of people.
Although Mr. Keqing of our family is always outside keeping accounts randomly, he never goes wrong at critical moments.
He must have a way to persuade the Qianyan Army soldier in front of him who refuses to accept anything.
However, Zhongli at this time did not look as calm and elegant as Hu Tao had imagined. The golden light in his eyes was dim, and even the clothes he cherished the most were covered in dust by the strong wind, making him look a bit dusty.
"Chief Chiayi, the hall master is still young, and his words and deeds just now were inappropriate. I hope you can forgive me."
Ignoring Hu Tao's expectant look, Zhongli walked directly between the two of them, separated the two parties who were about to conflict, and then apologized to the frowning Jiayi.
"Mr. Zhongli?"
Instead of waiting for the expected scene of Zhongli refuting the other party into silence, Hutao looked at the guest who was apologizing for her, half surprised and half aggrieved.
"At this time of crisis, we, the disciples of the Past Life Hall, should cooperate with the work of Qianyan Army."
"Please also put away the incense wax paper candles, return the ritual instruments to the hall, and have a rest."
Zhongli handed the pass with the condensed light seal to Chiayi, then turned around and persuaded the attendants in the Hall of Purity with a steady voice.
Hearing this, the attendants dressed in hall uniforms and holding law enforcement weapons all looked at each other in disbelief, and at the same time looked at the real person in charge of the Hall of Rebirth, Hu Tao.
Hall Master Hu put away Yaoye's blood-colored spear and tugged on Zhongli's sleeve with his small hands painted with black nail polish: "Someone from the General Affairs Department said that there is something sneaky and causing trouble at Wuwangpo..."
"I already know about this, don't worry."
Zhongli lowered his head at this moment, and looked at Hu Tao with his gilded eyes. The sea breeze, with its sultry and humid breath, caressed the white feather rock-colored tassels on his earrings. His rock-like steady and deep voice easily made people feel at ease.<
/p>
But Hutao discovered that Zhongli tonight seemed different from before.
In the past, Mr. Keqing had a calm attitude towards everything, and looked at all sentient beings with a distant and benevolent look, as if he were a god in the world.
Now Zhongli's eyes seemed to be softer when he looked at her, his eyes were full of seriousness but also had a sense of intimacy that he had never experienced before.
After looking at each other for a long time, Hu Tao nodded blankly, a glimmer of light flashed through her plum blossom pupils, and she curled her small mouth: "Since Mr. Keqing said it's okay, let's leave!"
"Everyone goes back to his own home!"
After hearing Hu Tao's words, the hostesses packed their bags and returned as if they were relieved.
In the eyes of many elders of the Death Hall, Hu Tao is still young, and Zhongli had already become a guest of the Death Hall when the previous head of the hall, Old Hu Jian, was still alive.
Although Hutao has been in charge of the business of the Rebirth Hall since he was very young, he is still a child after all and will always encounter situations beyond his ability.
At that time, I'm afraid I still have to rely on Mr. Zhongli to strategize to ensure that the Hall of Rebirth can survive the disaster safely.
Therefore, Zhongli's prestige in the Hall of Rebirth is no lower than that of Hutao.
"In this case, please Mr. Zhongli, please take good care of this eccentric... Hallmaster Hu, and don't cause any more trouble."
Jiayi carefully checked the pass Zhongli handed over, and after confirming it was correct, nodded to his colleagues, returned the paper to Zhongli, and ordered everyone to disperse.
"As it should be."
Zhongli raised his hand to hug Hutao and touched the girl's soft brown hair.
"You two stay, the others will follow me to the port."
Although Zhongli has a good impression of Chiayi, no one can guarantee whether this guest minister of the Palace of Death, who has close contacts with the executive officers of the Fools, will play some tricks secretly.
So he waved his hand and ordered the two Qianyan soldiers to stay, and hurried towards the dock with the others.
At this moment, Zhongli let out a long sigh and returned to the Hall of Purity with Hu Tao.
Hu Tao, on the other hand, was surprisingly obedient and held Zhongli's hand. She moved her fingers slowly, and then clasped them between Zhongli's fingers. She turned her head and stared curiously at the man in front of her with her red eyes, brewing some strange idea in her head.<
/p>
I don't know if it was a coincidence or something else, but every time Hu Tao was in danger, Zhongli would always appear and pass by her unhurriedly, appearing in front of her with such precision that he seemed to be pinching the right spot.
He always seems to be calm and at ease.
Even though Hu Tao later became the master of the Rebirth Hall in the eyes of the world, Hu Tao still felt that she couldn't guess Zhongli's thoughts.
"Oh~ My dearest Mr. Keqing, when you were sleeping, you dreamed that the Hall of Rebirth was in trouble, so did you come back to help the hall master?"
Hu Tao smiled and waved her arm, moving Zhongli's hand together.
Zhongli wanted to take out his right hand that was grasped by Hu Tao, but the little girl's grip was too tight, and he couldn't shake it off hard, so he had to respond seriously.
"It's not that...it's just that the cause of Wuwangpo's accident is complicated. It's useless for the hall master to rush there. It's better to wait and see what happens."
Reluctantly holding Hu Tao's hand, Zhongli pushed open the old wooden door of the Purity Hall. The layout of the hall remained unchanged, except that there were a few bright plum blossoms on the corners of the dragon head sculpture facing the door, exuding a faint fragrance.
The four treasures of the study are placed on the cabinet and table in the hall, the pen stand is hung with newly opened high-quality pekoe, the Xuanqing inkstone has prepared cinnabar, and the paperweight is pressed with two squares of yellow paper.
"Really?"
"Since Mr. Zhongli said so, then this Hall Master should take it seriously!"
Hutao followed Zhongli to the table, and threw the Humo Staff in the corner without feeling any distress. Suddenly, he turned around deftly, holding the edge of the table with one hand, and sat on the table cabinet, causing Zhongli to stagger as he did not react.
.
The girl casually grabbed the decorative plum blossoms in the pen holder, turned her interlocking palms upside down, and used her weight to bring Zhongli into her arms.
Zhongli, who was affected by Hu Tao's movements, fell uncontrollably to the table and hurriedly used his free hand to support the wooden table so as not to completely fall on Hu Tao.

This resulted in a very strange scene.
Hu Tao held Zhongli's head with his hand. The gap between the desk and cabinet was just right so that the girl and Mr. Keqing could look at each other. However, Zhongli could only try to support the weight of his body with one hand to prevent it from falling further into Hu Tao's neck.<
/p>
The faint fragrance of plum blossoms came to her face. Hu Tao stretched her neck to smell Zhongli's body, with a smile on her face. A tiger tooth was just exposed. Her snow-white neck had the unique delicacy of a girl. She pretended to be serious and said: "Hmm~ It smells so good. It seems that Mr. Keqing is still my guest, not some sneaky disguise."
But Zhongli just used his palms to prop up his body, and used his other hand to exert a little force. The slight pain soon made Hutao scream and throw away the opponent's palm.
Zhong Li helplessly took a half step back, looked at Hu Tao swinging his legs on the table, and sighed slightly: "Hall Master Hu is worrying too much. Compared with the safety of me, it's better that Hall Master not run around."
"Hey, what if I just want to run around?"
Of course Hutao knew what Zhongli was referring to. In the brief physical contact just now, she put the plum blossom in the pen holder on Zhongli's braid and took the pass in his pocket.
"Then I have no choice but to offend you."
A slight smile appeared in Zhongli's pale gold eyes, and he stretched out his hand towards the girl on the table.
But Hutao stepped back extremely vigilantly, wanting to turn over from the other side.
It's just that no matter how fast Hall Master Hu moves, how can he be faster than Zhongli, who is the Rock God?
The girl's white and tender wrist was grabbed by Zhongli. Before Hutao could react, Zhongli raised his hand and moved it between her eyebrows.
Hu Tao felt that the figure in front of her immediately blurred, and she staggered and fell into Zhongli's arms.
Zhongli put the girl's fair arms on his shoulders, took the girl's elastic and fleshy legs, hugged Hu Tao, and walked towards the boudoir on the second floor.
But when Zhongli opened the door, he was shocked by the messy bed, scattered papers and underwear in the room, and had no choice but to walk back to his room with the person in his arms.
Famas has been away for the past few days, and the bed has been tidied up by the steward responsible for cleaning.
But the room was filled with the familiar fragrance of neon flowers, which made Zhongli feel a little strange.
But the emperor who was eager to retire didn't think much about it, and just thought that the fragrance of flowers from the Jade Palace was carried here by the wind.
Zhongli skillfully placed Hutao on the bed, took off the hexagonal hat and sharp ring on the girl's head, and took off her shoes and socks.
As if because of the cold, the girl’s cute toes with black nail polish curled up slightly.
Zhongli pulled up the quilt and tucked the sheets under Hu Tao. After confirming that there was no air leakage, he walked out of the room with satisfaction.
The small amount of divine power just released was enough for Hutao to have a good sleep until the dispute in Liyue Port ended.
After placing the walnuts, Zhongli walked out of the room with the tea set and found a location on the second floor facing the port with a good view. He brought a table and chairs and sat down, calmly making tea over a small charcoal fire.
The mellow aroma of Qiaoyingzhuang's fine tea leaves drifted with the scalding hot tea. Zhongli began to warm the cup and wash the tea. His movements were skillful and smooth, as if he had done it thousands of times, as if he was born to be so calm.
Next, it’s time to see whether Liyue can survive this test.
After making sure that nothing was left out of the plan, Zhongli took a sip of tea happily.
However, in the room he just came out of, the fragrance of neon flowers was getting stronger and stronger. Hutao frowned in his sleep, with a slight blush on his face. He opened the collar of the hall clothes in a daze, revealing the hollow of his neck and the light red color.
bellyband.
Beads of sweat fell from the girl's temples. Hu Tao's white legs involuntarily clamped the sheets while talking in her sleep:
