Chapter 845 Qilin'er and Covetousness
Zhou You’s third son, Zhou Ding, was just born and was held in his father’s arms.

It was the first time he held his newborn son in his arms, and he felt like a steamed bun just out of a steamer, soft and warm.

Zhou Pan stood on the side, tiptoeing, "Let me see, let me see."

"Ok?"

As he looked around, he saw irregular purple spots on the baby's hands, feet, lower abdomen, and back.

Jian Xiaocao and Cou Mocao Moang, who were standing by, were shocked when they saw this. This was a return of their ancestral bloodline, and they were born with a birthmark of seal script.

But the question is, why are there so many?
They were both rare people in the aristocratic family who were born with birthmarks, each with only one, but the newborn boy had at least six.

Shocked, he heard Zhou You's words, "Control everyone and don't allow them to leave!"

Sure enough, Zhou You was not completely ignorant of birthmarks, and he must have a relationship with that tattoo artist.

Moreover, in the young master's case, he definitely needs a tattoo artist to complete the birthmark.

Jian and Xiaocao were full of hope, and the answers they were looking for were about to be revealed.

The Western Branch of the Zhou family became tense and solemn, and the joy of the newborn baby was quickly diluted.

"whats the matter?"

When the old master who was in charge of the family was invited over, he was a little reluctant at first, but when he saw the abnormality on Zhou Ding's body, his eyes immediately widened, "This, this is..."

"Grandmaster, the Grandmaster is not at home, and I am too inexperienced. Please make the decision on this matter!"

At present, the strongest fighting force of the Zhou Western Sect is this old master who is in his twilight years. Although he is old, he is not confused at all.

He took a quick look and saw that there were so many birthmarks on Zhou Ding's body that he could not count them with one hand, and he knew that the situation was serious.

"Da Qian, this is your son, you have to take good care of him and not let outsiders harm him!"

The old master thought about it and realized that there were less than a hundred servants responsible for taking care of Zhu Qinghua, which was nothing compared to the future of the family.

He pressed his palm down, "Why not kill them all and silence them all!"

The rest are Zhou You’s personal guards. They have a contract and will definitely not betray him.

Zhou You frowned slightly, wondering if this was too cruel, when he suddenly heard someone delivering a gift to his door. "The master of Dongzong heard that the prince had a baby boy, so he sent a gift to celebrate!"

My goodness, the East Sect and the West Sect are not adjacent to each other. As soon as Zhou Ding was born, the other party knew that he was a son. No one would believe that there is no spies in the family.

Now the question is, since everyone knows that it is a son, Zhou Ding’s congenital abnormality is probably no longer a secret.

"There's no need to silence him. The news has already leaked."

The old master pondered for a moment and said, "How about I come to this courtyard and take charge of it for a while, to at least ensure that the child completes the hundred-day period!"

Well, this one is OK!

There is a saying that "a hundred days is the time to build the foundation", which is also used to describe the growth period of a baby one hundred days after birth. This period of time is crucial. Once invaded by external evil, it will affect a baby's life.

With a master by his side, Zhou You felt more at ease during the most dangerous days.

"Everyone in this yard will be assigned to guard the manor. No one is allowed to go out!"

Zhou Ding’s natural gift could no longer be concealed, but the specific details had to be kept secret to buy him time to grow and thrive.

Zhou You comforted Zhu Qinghua and her son. Although he was reluctant, he returned to the Jitian Palace as soon as possible to end his vacation. The more normal he behaved, the more he could dispel the prying and speculation of those with ulterior motives.

"There must be something strange about the birth of Zhou You's son, otherwise why did those midwives and servants disappear collectively?"

"We sent people to send gifts as a test, but they accepted the gifts and didn't say anything. It's obvious that they wanted to pretend nothing happened!"

"Hehe, even the old master has gone over to protect him. Even a fool can tell that something is wrong!"

"How about this, let's leak the news to the palace. We in the East Sect won't get involved, but someone else will deal with him!"

After several twists and turns, the conspiracy in the dark spread like a big net to the Sacrifice Palace.
In the following days, Zhou You kept in touch with his family, concerned about his son's condition, and even summoned his vest 'Kutang' back from Tianzhu Mountain to watch over him. Fortunately, the situation was calm, and although other noble families came to congratulate him, they did not have any malicious intentions.

As the days passed, the news of his son's birth spread to the three northwestern states, allowing Zhou Nanwang to know about it first.

"Wow!"

At midnight, Zhou You was taking a bath, using the spring water from the Qingming Pond.

I have to say, this water is really good. It is particularly powerful when used for bathing and can wash away all impurities and dirt.

He took advantage of his position and used the spring water that the nobles in the palace used to make tea and drink for bathing without any appreciation.

When he was taking a bath, he specifically told the two guards not to serve him.

The farther you go, the better, because the hungry tiger picture on your back cannot be seen by others.

He was humming a song while taking a bath. His son has good pedigree, and he deserves the most credit!

Especially, he has been learning the seal script of Chengtian School recently and has made rapid progress. When he reaches a higher level, his level of tattoo artist can be further improved. He will need the best skills to repair his son's birthmark.

Suddenly, there were faint footsteps outside.

"Who?"

The footsteps were very subtle, even quieter than the sound of an ant crawling on the ground, but they could not be hidden from Zhou You.

Because the panel gave a prompt that a red dot representing hostility appeared nearby.

A charming female voice sounded, "General, I have admired you for a long time, and I am here to serve you in bathing!"

"No need, get out!"

Just as he was wandering around, a figure pushed the door open, and a fragrant breeze wafted around, instantly filling the air with a beautiful and fragrant atmosphere.

In the misty water, the sound of clothes falling to the ground could be heard.

A naked woman jumped into Zhou You's pool.

"If you don't stop, you will suffer the consequences!"

The woman said coquettishly, "Okay, how do you want me to be responsible?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a palm hit her forehead, shattering her skull and crushing her brain into liquid. An eyeball flew out from the broken flesh and bounced on the ground several times before stopping.

The headless corpse stood still for a moment, then fell to the ground with a thud!

Zhou You frowned, dipped his fingertips in a drop of water, and shot it out through the air, smashing the eyeball into pieces.

"Someone, there is a slave girl who attacked us at night, throw the body out!"

In a corner of the palace, the last scene that several people saw was the water droplets ejected by Zhou You enlarging and then turning black.

The last image in my eyes suddenly stopped.

"You are so ruthless and decisive!"

One person exclaimed in amazement, "This Zhou Daqian is quite an important figure. Did you see that clearly?"

"From a quick glance, there must be something behind him. It's not words, but a tattoo!"

"Haha, now I have an idea. 'Qianxiao' Zhou Baxia is greedy and loves to collect human skin paintings. Let him know the news."

Zhou Baxia, born into the Zhonglang Zhou family, was one of General Zhou's most trusted subordinates.

If he wanted to kill Zhou You, even Baiwei Ao Donglai would not be able to protect him.

Qianxiao is Baiwei's direct superior, and a higher-ranking official can crush a person.
