Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me
Chapter 26 It’s a pity that good people don’t have a good ending
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell into complete silence.
After a while, a light laugh was heard in the huge room, but this time the chill in the words was even deeper.
"You...I am actually becoming more and more curious about you. You know so much."
Mu Qingli looked at him and smiled, her curved eyebrows and eyes really looked like what she should look like at her age.
In fact, she was also quite curious. After all, if it weren't for the experiences before her death in her previous life, she wouldn't have known that the Ferry Pavilion was actually two emperors and eight palaces. It's just that some people were always willing to stand in the dark and remain unknown.
Thanks to a talkative Lord Guang in her previous life, she was really interested in this younger brother of someone. In most families in the world, the older brother protects the younger brother, but the two Lords Guang and An are completely the opposite.
She thought about it and spoke softly, with a hint of seriousness in her tone.
"So, will you accept me as your disciple? Uncle Ji also wants to know the whereabouts of that person, right? You should also understand that I came here with complete sincerity. Can't you accept me as your disciple just because I like you?"
The love she expressed directly made Ji Zhen's eyes darker, but his tone remained firm.
"But I don't understand. Logically speaking, you shouldn't know about the Ferry Pavilion at your age, but you still know about it. Or is it that the people behind you know about us?"
He was testing the waters, but who knew that the girl not far away suddenly restrained her expression, straightened her lips, and spoke frankly with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
"You don't need to test me. I said I came here with sincerity. I will tell you whatever you want to know.
There is no one behind me. I believe you can also find out that I once fell into the water at home. My life has completely changed because of that fall.
The nightmare syndrome is not a lie. I had a nightmare during the time I was in a coma. In the dream, I foolishly fell in love with someone I shouldn't have liked, which gave the other person an opportunity to take advantage of me and have someone collude with me to do something at home.
After that, the Mu family was labeled as traitors and all of them were exterminated except me. I also had my legs broken and was locked up in a shameful dungeon. Aren't you curious about how I know so much about the Ferry Pavilion?
Because I met your brother there, now Lord Guangzun, but back then we were just fellow inmates with the same fate. To be honest, I was a little annoyed with him at the time because he talked too much, but luckily I have a good memory so I was able to come to him like this."
Horror, shock, suspicion...all kinds of emotions suddenly surged up in an instant, causing Ji Zhen's face to change. He subconsciously stood up and stared at her.
Naturally, he didn't want to believe such a weird thing, but before coming here, he had investigated the person in front of him thousands of times, but he couldn't find any connection between him and the people from the Ferry Pavilion.
Because this child had never had any contact with the Ferry Pavilion before, either openly or secretly, which was why he made this trip in person.
Mu Qingli was not surprised by his surprise. She lowered her eyes to hide the layers of coldness in them, and her soft voice became much hoarser.
"I don't care whether you believe me or not. I can even tell you that I just want to board this big ship of the Ferry Pavilion. Let's just use each other as a tool. I'll use you to protect my family, and you'll use me to avoid the disaster in the future.
Don't say that nothing will happen to you in the future. If nothing would happen, Guangzun would not be thrown into the dark prison, and the person next to you would not be besieged and killed in order to save him.
I can guarantee that at least with me here, Guangzun will not fall into the situation in my dream, and nothing will happen to the Ferry Pavilion. What I want is very simple~ I just want my family to be safe, this is my only condition.
"Anzun, you also have family you value, and you should understand the pain of losing someone. I've been through this heartbreak in my dream, and I will never let my family fall into that situation again! I just want them to be alive and well!"
As if thinking of something, Mu Qingli raised his eyes again and added in a low voice, tears welling in his eyes.
"Don't try to force me to tell you. I'd rather die in glory than live in disgrace. Since the imperial court is going to take action against us, we either live together or die together!"
This time, Ji Zhen was silent for a longer time, and looked at her back and forth with a sinister look, as if he was wondering whether what she said was true or not.
But she was right about one thing. He would not take risks with his brother. He would nip any danger in the bud even if there was a little danger.
Mu Qingli was full of confidence and stared back at him without retreating, but it was inevitable that his palms were sweating.
Until I heard the other party's chuckle, "Little girl, you are indeed very courageous. You have some of your father's aura."
This time, the unexpected person turned out to be Mu Qingli, and his previously calm expression now showed a hint of doubt.
"Do you know my father?"
Ji Zhen lowered his eyes, casually began to tap the table rhythmically with his fingers, and hummed softly.
"I met him once when I was young. He is considered a good person among all the people I have met."
Mu Qingli narrowed his eyes and gave a sarcastically faint smile.
"It's a pity that good people don't have a good ending. What do you think, Master?"
This little girl is really good at taking advantage of others. As soon as he relaxed a little, she started calling for help.
Ji Zhen glanced at her and snorted, but did not refute. He stood with his hands behind his back with a cold face.
"So what are you going to do next?"
Mu Qingli quickly got out of bed and looked at him with her head slightly raised.
"I know Master is still worried about me, so I will stay in the Ferry Pavilion with my maidservant and be taught by you. However, I have recently bought a lot of slaves. I have selected a few from the Eight Palaces and want them to train those people.
I don't require you to have advanced martial arts skills, as long as you are smart and can kill with one blow. In five years at most, I will make the entire Dayan Kingdom remember the status of the Mu family! "
So that's why she chose the Ferry Pavilion? She's really good at choosing people and she dares to choose them!
Ji Zhen glanced at her and nodded lightly, then casually pulled Xue Xingqi up from the ground and woke him up in a few seconds.
"Your Majesty, next time if you have something to say, just tell me directly. I can stay away and don't bother knocking me out. Really!"
As soon as Xue Xingqi woke up, he touched his still aching neck and quickly distanced himself from An Zun, speaking helplessly.
Ji Zhen stood with his hands behind his back and glanced at him indifferently, his tone slightly deep.
"What are you talking about? Take them back with you."
Mu Qingli was still very polite. He immediately bent his knees slightly in front of Xue Xingqi with an elegant posture, "Then I'll trouble you for the journey, Brother Qi. Master has agreed to accept me as his disciple. From now on, we are all family."
Xue Xingqi's eyes widened instantly, and he subconsciously glanced at the man beside him. He had just knocked him out, and they had come up with this? How could they bring someone of unknown origin back home?
Ji Zhen could probably guess what he was thinking, and it was rare for him to explain it calmly.
"I have my own considerations. If you are worried, I will watch over them myself."
