My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost
Chapter 60: Blazing Fire Mountain
"Jinghua, you still have a lot of memorials to review, so go back soon." Wu Yiwan looked a little embarrassed and her tone was extremely guilty.
Zhao Jinghua nodded and said, "I'll take my leave." Then he turned around and left Fengyi Palace without hesitation.
Wan Sutong sneered after seeing this, her tone full of sarcasm, "She still wants to give Jinghua a warning, I'm afraid she doesn't understand Jinghua's temper at all."
0533 At this time, he sighed and said, "Last night, a fortune teller in East City calculated Zhao Jinghua's life span and said that Zhao Jinghua would only live for a month. Now the whole capital is talking about it. I wonder when the news gets to the palace, the fortune teller will be dead soon."
Zhao Jinghua just happened to push the door open at this time. "What are you talking about?"
Wan Sutong pursed her lips and snorted, "You ask even though you already know the answer. How are you going to deal with this?"
Zhao Jinghua laughed and sat down at the table. "No hurry. Let's play the long game. When the news reaches the palace, I will punish all the nine clans according to the law of King Zhao."
Wan Sutong looked up at Zhao Jinghua and asked, "What if it wasn't reported to the palace?"
Zhao Jinghua smiled but had murderous intent in his eyes. "Even if he is aware of the situation and doesn't want to make things worse, I will only punish him."
Wan Sutong nodded, and 0533 hurriedly said, "Host! Don't you think it's cruel? That's the Nine Clans!"
Wan Sutong was still muttering in her heart, "That fortune teller insisted on playing the Nine Clans Candy Crush. Even if I persuaded Jinghua, Zhao Jinfang would have to kill the fortune teller's nine clans after knowing about it." 0533 nodded without saying anything
At this time, Zhao Jinghua looked at Wan Sutong inadvertently. When Wan Sutong saw his expression, she panicked and kept shouting in her heart, "System! System! Jinghua can't hear my voice!"
Zhao Jinghua raised a barely perceptible smile, and then he took up the memorial and began to review it in front of Wan Sutong.
Wan Sutong raised her eyebrows and smiled in her heart, "System, do you have a picture of Zhao Jinghua taking a bath?" Zhao Jinghua didn't understand what Wan Sutong meant by taking a bath, but until 0533 opened the picture without saying a word, he saw himself raising his hand to take off his robe. Just as he was about to unbutton his inner clothes, Zhao Jinghua suddenly realized that taking a bath means bathing.
Zhao Jinghua sighed and held up the memorial to block Wan Sutong's eyes. "I can indeed hear it, but not just your thoughts, I can hear anyone's thoughts."
Wan Sutong burst out laughing after hearing this. "Quick, quick, turn it off. I can watch it secretly." Zhao Jinghua shook his head helplessly and put the memorial on the table.
Wan Sutong raised her eyebrows and looked directly at Zhao Jinghua, "So you know what I was thinking at the beginning? You didn't fall in love with me at first sight!"
Zhao Jinghua tilted his head and coughed unnaturally, "I guess so."
Wan Sutong smiled and raised her left fist to hit Zhao Jinghua's arm. "You are so perverted! I was only sixteen at that time!"
Zhao Jinghua held Wan Sutong's hand with a smile in his eyes, but sighed in his heart, how nice it would be if he could stay in this moment forever
0533At this time, he laughed and said, "In ancient times, women could get engaged at the age of fifteen after the ceremony of coming of age. Besides, didn't Zhao Jinghua express his feelings to you at that time?"
Wan Sutong was about to speak when Gu Song walked in with his head lowered, then knelt down and saluted, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Crown Prince."
Zhao Jinghua calmly let go of Wan Sutong's hand and said, "Get up."
Gu Song raised his head and froze in his tracks when he saw Wan Sutong. Being able to sit on an equal footing with the crown prince of a country was enough to show how much Zhao Jinghua valued this strategist. After a moment, Gu Song hurriedly bowed and said, "I was so rude that I didn't realize Master Su was here when I lowered my head just now."
Wan Sutong was about to get up from the chair but was stopped by Zhao Jinghua. "Why haven't I seen Doctor Gu wearing the jade pendant that keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer recently? I remember Doctor Gu never took it off, didn't he?"
Gu Song sighed and shook his head. "My younger brother accidentally broke the jade pendant a few days ago, and now he is being punished by my mother to copy medical books."
Zhao Jinghua sneered after hearing this, "Your brother is so naughty, but he can't recover?"
Gu Song nodded helplessly, "That's right."
Zhao Jinghua nodded and called Eunuch Wang who was outside the door. "Eunuch, send someone to deliver the nine-inch wide piece of jade to Gu's house, and invite a jade carving craftsman to come over."
Eunuch Wang bowed and nodded, "I will go right away." Then he turned and left
Gu Song hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Highness, I can't do that. Actually, I came here today to... resign." The last three words of Gu Song's voice became smaller and smaller, and the last word was almost inaudible.
Zhao Jinghua nodded and sighed, "I know, Doctor Gu, please accept it. You have saved my life more than once." At this point, Zhao Jinghua sighed again, "I wanted to say that there is a long way to go... but now... I can't repay your life-saving grace. I am not an ungrateful person." After that, Zhao Jinghua transformed into a red jade pendant and placed it on the table, "You often said that you wanted to establish a sect. I have always kept it in my heart. This is the Blazing Fire Order. Drop a drop of blood from your fingertips and wear it on your body. Then you can go to the top of the Chihuo Mountain at the border between the two countries, hang it on the main hall, and the blazing fire will dissipate. From then on, anyone can enter and exit the Chihuo Mountain at will. There are 30,000 taels of gold in the side hall. I can only help you up to this point."
After hearing this, Gu Song knelt down hurriedly and said, "I can't accept it! I can't bear this..."
Zhao Jinghua frowned slightly and said with a hint of impatience, "Get up, take it and let it recognize you as its master. Otherwise, if I die, the token will be scattered, and no one will be able to set foot on Chihuo Mountain from now on." Wan Sutong realized at this moment that Zhao Jinghua did not have absolute patience with everyone, not to mention that he was in very poor health now, so even if it was a good friend, he was already very patient.
Seeing that Gu Song just stood up but remained unmoved, Zhao Jinghua was about to patiently persuade him again when he heard Wan Sutong slowly say, "Your Highness asked you to take it, so take it. If your medical skills can be passed on to heal more people in Zhao State, it will not be a waste of Your Highness's kindness." Zhao Jinghua's brows gradually relaxed, and then when he looked at Wan Sutong, a relieved smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
Doctor Gu suddenly realized what was going on and immediately knelt down to pay his respects to Zhao Jinghua. "Such a great favor! I, Gu Song, will never forget it. From now on, my sect will do its best to protect the people of Zhao State."
Zhao Jinghua hummed, "Get up, Gu Song, do you think we will meet again?" Doctor Gu slowly stood up, picked up the jade pendant on the table, and shook his head without saying a word.
Zhao Jinghua reached out from under the table and quietly grasped Wan Sutong's left hand. "Spring comes and winter goes, it's just like that." Wan Sutong's heart tightened when he heard this, and then he placed his right hand on the back of his hand.
Doctor Gu frowned and said in confusion, "But Your Highness, there will be another time next year."
Wan Sutong burst out laughing after hearing this. "Doctor Gu, in other words, the Yangtze River's new waves drive the old waves, and the new people in the world replace the old people." After that, she laughed again, and complained to the system and Zhao Jinghua in her heart, "He is too naive!"
Zhao Jinghua chuckled and shook his head slightly, "Gu Song, if you really appreciate my kindness, if you meet Mr. Su in the world someday, I hope you can take care of him for my sake today."
Gu Song bowed and said with reluctance, "Yes, don't worry, I bid you farewell, Your Highness." Then he left quickly.
Zhao Jinghua looked at Gu Song's gradually blurred back and chuckled, "Do you know why I helped him?"
Wan Sutong frowned slightly, and an idea suddenly popped up in her mind, "You are not doing this for me!"
Zhao Jinghua nodded slightly. "Yes, if you are protected by a sect in the future, the stronger the sect becomes, the more cautious others will be before becoming your enemy."
Wan Sutong nodded and then saw Eunuch Chen hurrying towards the study. "Are we going to offer sacrifices?"
Zhao Jinghua chuckled and said, "Not really."
