my demon

Chapter 84

After Lin Jiangping bowed, people only saw that the golden-eyed emperor slightly stretched out his hand to let him sit down, but he didn't even return the courtesy, and Lin Jiangping obviously didn't feel ashamed, sat down humbly, and poured tea for the emperor with his own hands offer.

The Lich accepted the tea he offered, "You're welcome."

Lin Jiangping said in a low voice: "Mr. is finally back. If you don't come back, I think the emperor can kill me to sacrifice to heaven at any time. Although this is what I want, Mr. has made me miserable."

Lich: "The emperor is kind, he is not a person who kills indiscriminately. Ji Xiangshi just said that the emperor treats you very well."

Lin Jiangping: "The emperor and I are tortured in the hell of karma every day. Fortunately, he waited for my husband, and I have long been hopeless."

The lich turned his eyes slightly, but his eyes were still indifferent, just like the ruthless Lin Jiangping saw ten years ago, which belonged to the condescending ruthlessness of the gods: "Look aside, the law of your world is soul reincarnation and energy conservation. Xiao Ji gave up his identity as a death knight, and maybe he is reborn as a certain person now, maybe it is a flower, a blade of grass, or a bird you met. If he is alive, he may be very close to you. If you benefit People, maybe Fuze favors him, if you cherish flowers and birds, maybe he will watch you by your side."

Lin Jiangping: "Sir, are you coaxing me to continue to devote myself to the emperor?"

Lich nodded slightly: "It is written in your own sage book: Heaven and earth nourish all things, saints nourish virtuous people, and all people. This is the duty of you who are in high positions. Follow the way of heaven, and the way of heaven will give you what you want. Those who benefit the world will benefit the world." He understood the laws of this world very easily, and he guessed that he should have understood them before, so now the laws are completely in his heart as if they were already existing knowledge.

Lin Jiangping also looked at the hall expressionlessly, everyone looked joyful, celebrating this prosperous age Qingping, Mingjun Holy Lord, why everyone is happy to welcome the prosperous age, but they have nothing, such a world, destruction is nothing Okay, let's go with the sky?Why take away his things and still want him to follow the sky?

He was sure that the emperor had the same thoughts as him every day in the past few years, swinging between crazy destruction and depression to be a good person, seeking comfort.Every time he saw the emperor, he saw himself struggling and suffering on his face.

He laughed: "Every time the emperor looks at me, he is suppressing the killing intent. He doubts, but he has to believe, because he can only live on that glimmer of hope."

Lich: "..." The little emperor is not as crazy as you, please don't judge others by yourself, okay?Obviously soft and sweet, shy and conservative little snacks, it is very delicious at first glance.

Looking at his face, Lin Jiangping knew that he didn't believe him, so he laughed softly: "Believe it or not, if you go to tell the emperor now that you want to go back, he will definitely do some crazy things, just like me before, even if it is a corpse , and stay here..." There was a weird smile on his face.

Lich glanced at him again, a little regretful that this world cannot convert liches, otherwise this person in front of him is too stubborn, but he is a good material for converting liches-both civil and military, right?Can you be an alchemy lich? His eyes seemed to penetrate Lin Jiangping's skin and see into his bones.

Lin Jiangping was almost a lunatic at first, thinking about how to die every day, but seeing the way the Lich looked at him, he shivered slightly for some reason, and always felt that something bad would happen if he continued to talk.

But he saw He Changan walking over with a smile on his face, and said to the Lich in a low voice: "My lord, please go to the inner hall, the emperor invites you." Lin Jiangping glanced at He Changan, He Changan was slightly cold, He laughed and said, "Hello, Marshal Lin. I haven't seen you for a while. How are you?"

Lin Jiangping lazily said: "I'm fine, the emperor is happy now, can I let my nephew find another job? I think Qin Tianjian is very good."

He Chang'an smiled and said: "Commander Lin is being modest. Now that little general Lin is entering the sea like a dragon in the navy, it is a great opportunity to leap into the sea. He even wrote a letter to ask for orders to go to sea to attack pirates."

Lin Jiangping said: "If you want to go to sea, you can, sir, a child, regardless of gender, leave a root for the Lin family before going to sea."

He Chang'an: "..." How about saying this to the servant!

The Lich has stood up: "Let's go."

Lin Jiangping felt the coercion that oppressed the soul leave, and felt a layer of sweat on his back. He couldn't help exhaling slowly. Seeing the lich, he believed that what he met that day was not Lie, this omnipotent ghost-like emperor, it seems that he did not lie... So, has Xiao Ji really disappeared?It's been ten years, is he a bird, a flower, or was he reborn in some kind family?It's not bells and lanterns, at least it's calligraphy and poetry, right?

Lin Jiangping suddenly wondered whether he should find out which of the ten-year-old babies in Beijing was born on that day.

The Lich didn't know that Lin Jiangping became more and more mad after hearing what he said. He strode into the inner hall and saw Xiao Yan sitting on the seat inside. When he saw him coming in, he stood up with a smile and said to him: "It's a good day today, let the prince come to see you too."

The Lich looked over and saw that Princess Duanrou was standing there with a smile on her knees and bowed to him: "Duanrou has met Master Tongwei." Then he pulled a young boy beside her, who was very young. In his early twelfth year, his eyes looked like lacquer, his skin was fair, and he was very handsome. He stepped forward and made a deep bow: "Xiao Zhen has met the grand master."

The Lich didn't expect that he was asked to come in to see the eldest princess and the prince, so he reacted hastily for a while, touched a colored glaze bead the size of a baby's fist from his sleeve, and said, "Good boy, this is just burned today." Okay, let's play with it."

It was originally a new style made by the bone lord, so I picked a rose flower and put it in. It looks good. I want to bring it in to show the emperor the style. If possible, I can burn it in large quantities and sell it.

He took out another string of glazed beads from his sleeve and gave it to He Changan: "It's the first time we meet, this is for the eldest princess."

Princess Duanrou took the string of crystal clear glass beads from He Changan's hand, and saw that there was a small jasmine flower in each bead, and then looked at the precious ball in Xiao Ruan's hand, there was a jasmine flower frozen inside. The fresh roses that were about to bloom, as if dewdrops were still on them, said with a smile: "The emperor is really a trick of ghosts and gods, this is the resident spring flower that always blooms."

The Lich nodded slightly: "It's easy to say, Qin Tianjian will be on the shelves soon, and I will invite the Eldest Princess to visit."

Princess Duanrou touched the crystal bead, as if smelling the fragrance of jasmine inside, her eyes lit up: "The emperor can open a shop in Lvyangzhuang, and I would like to give you a [-]% profit."

Although I don't remember it, it sounds like a good store, and the Lich was very satisfied: "Thank you, Eldest Princess, for your help."

Seeing it from above, Xiao Yan felt sour in his heart, but he could only focus on the banquet in front of him: "The prince is young, and the eldest princess will mainly accompany the queen mother to attend the palace banquet inside, and I will trouble you to take the prince out later. Take care of the prince one or two."

Princess Duanrou reluctantly said: "I'm going to the inner palace first, His Royal Highness doesn't usually attend such occasions, please take care of the emperor."

The lich looked at the little prince's dark eyes and believed that Rumu looked at him, holding the precious orb in his hand, and a sense of protection spontaneously arose: "Don't worry." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to hold the little prince hands.

Xiao Yan: "..." In fact, 12 years old is not young, no one is holding my hand since I was 12 years old.He stared at Lich holding the little prince's hand again. For some reason, Xiao Yu suddenly felt that today's father was a little scary, and involuntarily moved towards Lich. Xiao Yan moved his eyes and signaled He Changan: "Go out. .”

In the brightly lit Qinghe Hall, the chief of staff shouted: "The emperor is here! The prince is here!"

For a moment, all the ministers attended and knelt down to greet him: "Long live the emperor! Long live the prince! Thousands of years for the prince!"

Wearing a grand auspicious costume, Xiao Yan walked to the dragon chair in the center and sat down. Behind him, the lich came out holding the prince's hand, and then set up a seat on the east side of the throne, and the lich and the prince sat down.

The ceremonial officer called out, and the lich watched the ministers below get up and take their seats, thinking that the emperor didn't want to kneel and worship by himself, so he specially asked himself to go in and bring the prince out, otherwise he could just take it with him, why bother to let him bring.

So Xiao Yan didn't care how the Ministry of Rites arranged the seats, because he didn't intend to let himself sit down to worship.

Seeing the silence below, the Lich only heard Xiao Yan speaking slowly above, his voice was clear but full of majesty: "Since I practiced Zuo, I have been diligent in governing the common people, seeking governance diligently, and getting the help of all the ministers to drive out the barbarians. Unity of the Liuhe, peace of the world, blessed by God, tonight is a good day, the whole world will reunite, share with all the lords, and enjoy with all peoples."

For a moment, everyone in the following group of officials made tears in their eyes again, only to see Ji Tongzhen come out and read the congratulatory speech aloud, full of praises, Xiao Yan just listened and raised his hand to reward, after that, Jiaofang Shengping After performing dances in the department and drinking for three rounds, the emperor and the prince led the ministers to climb the tower of Zhengyangmen to watch the lanterns and have fun with the people.

The bright moon has risen to the clear sky, the clear light is covering the ground, and silver light is shining everywhere, Xiao Yan turns around and looks like he is taking the prince, but in fact he is walking with the Lich. Ambilight, has filled the lamp tower.

He Chang'an thought that the tower was very windy, so he took the little prince to sit in the pavilion of the tower, looking for snacks to coax him to eat.Zhu Rufeng led the guards to surround the emperor and the lich, and the other clan ministers were naturally separated, standing on both sides of the tower watching the lanterns, whispering in small groups.

Xiao Yan stood on the top of the tower and looked down, talking to the Lich in a low voice: "The last time I went to the tower during the Mid-Autumn Festival, my husband made a tree full of lanterns on the imperial street, scattered the lanterns around, and said it was to pray for the little prince at home. .”

The Lich was surprised: "Really?" My former self was still so good at it?

Xiao Yan felt aggrieved: "It's a lamp made of the lamp sacs of fireflies in the magic swamp. Sir, he won't give me any good things now." Give it to the little prince.

The Lich didn't react for a while: "How come? If there are good things, I will definitely save them for you first."

Xiao Yan listened to Lich's serious words that touched his heart, and he felt sweet in his heart: "You gave the crown prince just now, what is that? I haven't seen it before."

The Lich came to his senses and touched a golden glazed ball from his sleeve: "Did you mean the glazed ball? Those two were burned by the bone lord. I just pointed it out. I brought it into the palace today because I wanted to see it." Look for an opportunity to sell it. This is just for you."

Xiao Yan took the golden colored glass ball, and he saw that it was dotted with blooming dawn stars. The platinum-gold petals melted into the amber colored glass, crystal clear, as if countless stars were blooming in his hands. Only then did he laugh: "How did it burn? I remember that when the colored glaze melts, it will be very hot. Will this flower not be burned?"

The lich said: "The magic ice is covered and frozen, and then put in, the flowers and leaves will not be deformed. I taught the bone lord the method, and soon a large number of crystal balls can be made, and it will be worthless by then."

Xiao Yan treasured the glazed ball into his sleeve: "Of course it's the most precious gift from the master."

The Lich looked at the busy traffic on the royal street, like a river of stars: "It's very lively - let's go paragliding later? The moonlight is so beautiful, paragliding must be fun."

Xiao Yan smiled: "Okay, but there is one more thing I want to show my husband."

He lowered his sleeves, summoned up his courage and took the lich's hand quietly, but the lich didn't know why, so he held his arm with his backhand: "There are too many people here, I don't really like it, it's better to sit quietly on a paraglider. "

Xiao Yan said: "Wait a little longer."

Just looking at the sky above the river opposite the city gate tower, fireworks were set off with a bang, and all the people shouted excitedly.

After a while, the sky was full of fireworks, and the words "Longevity without borders, peace in the world" came out.

The Lich nodded and smiled: "It's a wonderful workmanship."

Then suddenly the people shouted again, only to see Yuanyuan, a balloon like another full moon slowly rising from the river to the sky.

The Lich raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is this... a hot air balloon?"

Xiao Yan smiled: "Yes, the method I found from the magic notes you left before, although there is no magic, but using charcoal, you can also make a hot air balloon that can lift into the sky."

The Lich looked up slightly: "Well, it's interesting."

After the hot air balloon slowly lifted into the sky, thousands of starlight scattered in the air from the hot air balloon, floating in the air, just like countless stars hanging in midair.

Seeing this spectacle, the people in the capital cheered, and the waves of excited cheers could be heard even from the city gate tower.

Xiao Yan held Lich's hand: "This is called Xingyue Tonghui, and the mountains and rivers will shine forever. It's a good compliment."

"However, I have selfish intentions. In the past, you scattered the lanterns to pray for me. Today, I will also light up the lanterns for you. May you be safe and happy."

Lich smiled: "Thank you, I like it very much."

Xiao Yan looked at the serene and indifferent eyebrows of the Lich under the moonlight: "This place is not as exciting as your world. I am always worried that one day, sir, I will get tired of the dullness here, recover my memory, and go back again."

The Lich shook his head: "How could it be, 'doing nothing, doing nothing, and tasteless.' It's very interesting that your world is back to the basics. I think I should have thought the same way before I lost my memory. Being a mortal, eating three meals a day , It’s good and interesting to live every day seriously.”

The author has something to say:
