The Ancient Growth Diary of a Little Zombie

The dumbfounded Protector of the Country: ...

Maybe I left work too early today, so it's not the right time to come back. I should go back to work for a while...

The Duke of Protectorate turned around and hurried out of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion as if a ghost was chasing him.

Not long after the Duke of Protectorate left the house, Shishi's siblings and Xu, because of her cheating mother's involvement, were thrown out of the door together by the Duke of Protectorate's hot-tempered wife.

The infuriated Lady Protector of the Country stood at the gate with her hands on her hips, pointing at several people and cursing:

"What the hell! You're already cheating before we even start gambling!"

After scolding her, he glared at Xu fiercely, then turned and walked into the house, and the door was immediately slammed shut.

Now, just as the sisterhood reconciled quickly back then, it has broken down just as quickly now.

It was clearly a gentle spring breeze blowing by, but the four people standing in the wind, staring at each other, looked a little desolate from afar.

Xu looked at Xiao Wang, who was shrinking her neck and looked guilty for having made a mistake, and sighed softly:

"Okay, this place is not far from the palace, let's walk back by ourselves."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang looked at her, then at the tightly closed door of the Protectorate Mansion, and asked hesitantly:

"Then, then the Lady Protector of the Country..."

She looked really angry just now!

Xu chuckled:

"It's okay. She'll be fine by tomorrow."

After saying that, she pulled the people towards the palace.

Shishi seemed to be following silently, but in fact he was busy threatening his stinky brother with his eyes.

I did hit him a bit too hard just now, and my brother is afraid of the stinking corpse and complaining.

Unfortunately, the naughty little brother didn't notice his sister's eyes at all. His little hand was still touching the red mark that was just scratched by the little dumpling, with a face full of sweet aftertaste.

"Hehe~"

Sang Jiale couldn't help laughing out loud. Little Wang, who was walking in front, heard the sound and turned her head to look. Only then did she notice the red marks on the little guy's face.

If it was a minor injury like this in the village, most elders wouldn't care. But when she thought about this being the capital, Xiao Wang was afraid that her child would be bullied, so she asked worriedly:

"Jia Le, what happened to your face? Did you have a fight with someone?"

Before Sang Jiale recovered from the sweetness, Shishi, who had not received any response from his brother, started to complain:

"Mom, my brother is in love too early. He likes my little sister!"

按照尸尸的想法，家长知道孩子要早恋，肯定都会抓住胖揍一顿的，这样弟弟就没机会告自己状了。

Her mother and even her aunt Xu stopped and looked back, but who would have thought that instead of anger, there was a look of aunt smile on their faces.

Xu jokingly said, "Hey, which girl has Xiao Jiale fallen in love with?"

Little Wang also laughed and joked: "Your face looks like it was hit by a little girl, right?"

Sang Jiale blushed again when he was teased. Such a little kid was still shy. He stamped his feet, snorted, and ran forward.

The three behind him would not let him go easily, and they returned to the palace laughing and joking all the way.

During dinner, Huo Lingxing sent someone to tell them that they would be back later, so only Xu's mother and son and Shishi's family of three were there for dinner.

After dinner, Xiao Wang was pulled back to her room by Xu to review etiquette and rules. Sang Jiale was taken by Nanny Li to wash and apply medicine, while Shi Shi went to Huo Yunting's study.

Huo Yunting sat at the desk, looked up at the little girl who suddenly broke in, raised his eyebrows, and seemed a little surprised.

The little girl didn't say anything, so he simply lowered his eyes and continued to read the letter in his hand.

As he expected, after waiting for a while, the little girl couldn't help but speak first.

"Girls can't be king here?"

Shishi asked again the doubts she had received from the Chen sisters today.

Huo Yunting raised his eyes and saw the serious look on the little girl's face. He also sat up straight and after thinking for a moment, he nodded slightly and said softly:

"If nothing unexpected happens, that's it."

Shi Shi's face showed no emotion when he heard this, he just asked again:

"What about the potatoes and sweet potatoes I brought?"

This time Huo Yunting did not hesitate and said bluntly:

"At the celebration banquet, His Majesty will probably grant you the title of Princess or Commandery Lady."

Shishi nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

Huo Yunting felt something was wrong, so he stood up and called her, walked forward, bent his knees slightly, and looked straight into her eyes.

After a moment of silence, he began to explain earnestly:

"Shishi, apart from your Majesty's brothers, it would be extremely difficult for others to be crowned kings.

Besides, the title of princess or county lady is also good for you. At least other people will not dare to touch you easily and will also treat you with respect.

If you want, when you return to the village, you can ask them to call you whatever they want in private.

Please don't dwell on a title, okay?"

He had mentioned the little girl's request to be crowned king before, but unfortunately it was always rejected.

Shishi didn't say okay or not, she just stared at him with her dark, innocent and ignorant eyes.

Only when her stare made his heart tremble and his eyes evade did Shishi continue to walk out, and then her confident and assertive voice was heard.

"I'll be the accident!"

*

In the middle of the night, Huo Yunting, lying in bed, tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep for a long time because of the words the little girl said when she left.

He was feeling panicky, always feeling that the little girl was going to cause trouble again.

Well, while there is still time, I should go to the palace tomorrow to persuade His Majesty!

Huo Yunting had a good idea, but unfortunately...

It's too late.

The huge palace was silent and quiet in the night, like a huge cage.

Most of the candles in the Hall of Mental Cultivation had been extinguished, with only a few still flickering, making everything in the hall unusually dim.

The person lying on the bright yellow dragon couch moved, as if he was sleeping a little uneasily.

The emperor, who had been tired all day because of the matter of the right prime minister and had not been to the harem for several days, was now in a half-asleep and half-wakeful state.

He was about to fall into a deep sleep, but he inexplicably felt the temperature getting a little chilly and opened his eyes in a daze.

"what!!!"

The emperor's screams pierced the quiet night sky, waking up the drowsy guards at the door.

"His Majesty?

What happened, Your Majesty?"

The guards on night watch wanted to push the door open to check, but were stopped by the sound coming from inside the house.

"It's okay, everyone, please retreat!"

The guards outside the door looked at each other in surprise when they heard this, while the emperor and the corpse inside the door stared at each other in wide eyes.

God knows how scary it was when he just opened his eyes in a daze and was met with a pair of pitch-black pupils!

The emperor, wearing a bright yellow inner garment, sat on the dragon couch, one hand stroking his still pounding heart, suppressing his anger, gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice:

"Tell me, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

Shi Shi felt his eyes hurt when he looked at the yellow bed, yellow quilt and yellow clothes, but when he thought about why he came, he sat down on the big yellow bed.

But before she could say anything, the emperor suddenly shrank away, hugged the quilt, and looked at her with horror.

Didn’t they say that this damn girl doesn’t like old people?
