"Chu Feiyang!"
Shouted again.
The voice is very familiar.
At this time, singing could still be heard from the pleasure boat in the lake.
Luo Qingzhou thought he had heard it wrong. He was stunned for a moment before turning around to look.
In the drizzle.
A young girl in black clothes and holding an oil-paper umbrella stood behind him, looking at him with surprise.
The girl was tall and had long, strong legs.
The most striking thing is that she has short silver hair, sharp facial features, and light blue eyes.
Luo Qingzhou's gaze gradually moved down to look at her feet.
"Chu Feiyang! Where are you looking?"
Sister Dao glared at him, strode up to him, stretched out two fingers, and pretended to stab his eyes.
Luo Qingzhou took a step back and asked in surprise: "Sister Dao, why are you here?"
Sister Dao looked at him with a resentful look on her face and said, "We just arrived yesterday. Chu Feiyang, why didn't you tell us that you were coming to Kyoto? Did you know that Mocheng was in danger a long time ago?"
Luo Qingzhou shrugged and said, "I really don't know. I only found out about the turmoil there these past two days. Where are Xiaoxiao and Boyue?"
Sister Dao snorted and said, "That's quite a friendly shout. They should be coming to Kyoto as well, but I don't know when they will arrive."
Luo Qingzhou asked: "How is Mo Cheng now?"
Sister Dao sighed and said, "It has been occupied by the demon tribe. Many people have died in the inner and outer cities. I heard that the demon beasts are still spreading to other nearby cities."
Luo Qingzhou frowned and said, "Doesn't the imperial court have soldiers to rescue?"
Sister Dao shook her head and sighed, "I don't know either. I just heard that the princess's army was stationed near the border, but they didn't protect the people or help defend the city. Everyone was talking about it in private, saying bad things about the princess. After all, those cities are already the princess' fiefdom. I don't know about the princess, ah..."
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, then said, "The princess is now in the palace, and may have been placed under house arrest."
As soon as these words came out, Sister Dao's face suddenly changed and she asked, "Are you serious? Who told you that?"
Seeing that she was quite excited, Luo Qingzhou remembered that she had always admired the eldest princess and regarded her as her idol. After a pause, he said, "I only heard about it. I don't know if it's true."
Sister Dao's face changed for a while, and she asked in confusion: "Why is this happening? The eldest princess is the emperor's sister, she has made great military achievements, and she is deeply loved by the people. She..."
Luo Qingzhou looked at the drizzling rain in the lake and said, "That's why some people think she's dangerous. After all, she has her own kingdom and controls so many troops. Both the people and the soldiers love her very much."
Sister Dao was stunned when she heard this, and seemed to suddenly understand something, and said: "But...but the eldest princess is a woman, how could they..."
Luo Qingzhou said slowly: "The princess is devoted to reform, and has affected the interests of all the nobles. If only one or two people slandered her and said bad things about her, it would be fine. Now almost all the nobles are probably blowing the whistle in front of the emperor. How could the emperor remain indifferent? The princess must have thought of this situation a long time ago, but she didn't expect that the emperor would take direct action against her. After all, her army is still stationed on the border. Who could have thought of it?"
Sister Dao looked solemn and asked, "Will His Majesty send other generals to the border to take over the Princess' army?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "It is very likely."
Dao Jie frowned, worried, and sighed: "The princess has devoted herself to the country and the people, but she didn't expect to end up like this. It's a pity that I am alone and cannot enter the palace to save her..."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her and changed the subject: "Sister Dao, where do you live now?"
Sister Dao sighed for a while, then said, "In the south of the outer city, at my uncle's house. How about you?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "I also live in the outer city."
Of course, he wouldn't tell the specific place.
Sister Dao looked at him and asked, "Are you practicing at home now? In the house you bought yourself, or are you living with a relative?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "I bought the house myself, but it's too small to practice. I came out today to find a place to practice. I plan to find a sect to join, as long as I can practice and have skills to teach."
Sister Dao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she quickly said, "Chu Feiyang, do you want to become my disciple? My master just happened to come to Kyoto, so you can become his disciple."
Luo Qingzhou's heart moved, and he asked: "What is your master's cultivation level? Does he have a place to practice? Does he have any cultivation resources?"
Sister Dao said with pride: "My master is at the late stage of the Great Martial Master. He is the elder of the Lingxiao Sect and has been recruiting disciples outside. This time he came to Kyoto and was assigned to the branch in the south of the city to recruit disciples. There is a large martial arts training ground there. As for training resources, the Lingxiao Sect is one of the five major sects in our Great Yan. Although the training resources are not as good as the other three sects, let alone the Dragon and Tiger Academy, it has all the general skills and elixirs. Chu Feiyang, you are so outstanding. If you join our Lingxiao Sect, there will definitely be a lot of training resources for you."
After hearing this, Luo Qingzhou fell into deep thought.
Seeing that he seemed moved, Sister Dao immediately started talking non-stop about the power of Ling Xiao Sect.
Then he suddenly looked at him and said, "By the way, Chu Feiyang, there are many beautiful little sisters in Lingxiao Sect, and their feet are very beautiful."
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
"How about it? Are you willing to join?"
Sister Dao raised her eyebrows, as if she couldn't wait to become his senior sister.
Luo Qingzhou pondered for a while, then asked: "I am not a local resident, and I can't produce a property certificate, residence certificate, or other identity documents. Can I join?"
Sister Dao was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and said, "Forget about the other things, but can't you even produce your ID?"
Luo Qingzhou fell silent.
Sister Dao stared at him suspiciously for a while, then suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed his face, pinched it hard, and tore it, but nothing came off.
Luo Qingzhou took a deep breath and asked, "What are you doing?"
Sister Dao said: "I suspect you have another identity, and your face may be fake."
Luo Qingzhou rubbed his face and said directly: "I do have another identity, but this face is definitely real. Sister Dao, do you think I can join?"
Sister Dao hesitated for a moment and said, "In your case, I have to go back and ask my master first. If he agrees, then there will be no problem. Chu Feiyang, what secrets are you hiding? Why don't you dare to show your true identity to others? I have never seen anyone hide their identity even when they are learning from a master."
Luo Qingzhou said: "You also know that I killed many people in the Black Wood Forest and have many enemies. I don't want to implicate my family."
Sister Dao curled her lips and said, "I guess there are more than just those people. Maybe there are more powerful people, otherwise you wouldn't be hiding."
Luo Qingzhou didn't discuss this matter with her anymore and asked, "How can I contact you?"
Sister Dao pointed in the direction and said, "Go to the 18th Lane in the south of the city. Walk forward 200 meters and you will see a house with the words Dao Mansion written on it. That is my uncle's house, but his family has moved to the inner city. Now the house is empty. Only my father and I, as well as some servants, live there. By the way, my name is Dao Ling. Just ask for me when you get there. I'll be at home at night, though. I have to practice with my brothers and sisters during the day."
Having said this, she paused and continued, "Chu Feiyang, why don't you come to me tomorrow night? Whether it will work or not, I should have the answer tomorrow night."
Luo Qingzhou nodded and said, "Okay, thank you Sister Dao."
Sister Dao smiled and said, "Maybe I'll have to call you Senior Sister from now on."
Luo Qingzhou also smiled and said nothing more.
"Let's go. I'll treat you to lunch at noon."
Sister Dao waved her hand proudly.
At this time, the woman in the painted boat waved and called out, "Sir, come down and play. It's fun here."
Luo Qingzhou left quickly.
Sister Dao glanced at the lake, then suddenly narrowed her eyes, turned around and asked, "Chu Feiyang, if I hadn't appeared just now, would you have already boarded the boat?"
Luo Qingzhou asked: "Am I that kind of person?"
Sister Dao said, "Of course you are. After all, that woman just now had feet."
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
It was noon.
The sky is still dark and the autumn rain is still falling heavily.
The two found a pub, ordered four side dishes and a pot of wine, and chatted about Mo Cheng while drinking and eating.
Finish lunch.
The two of them went shopping at a store that specialized in martial arts supplies, and then made an appointment to meet tomorrow night before going home.
When Luo Qingzhou returned, Qin Wenzhen and his wife, Miss Qin II, and Nangong Meijiao were eating in the dining room.
Seeing him coming back, Song Ruyue quickly stood up and asked, "Qingzhou, what's going on? Does your friend have Fire Fox Tears?"
Luo Qingzhou took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and said, "It's almost there."
After these words were spoken, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Ruyue said excitedly, "That's great, that's great. Once we get the morning dew from the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree in Prince Duan's Mansion, we can make medicine."
Qin Wenzheng said, "Qingzhou, they gave you such a valuable gift. When you have time, invite your friend to your home for a meal so that we can thank him in person."
Song Ruyue also hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Qingzhou, please invite your friend over for dinner, and mother-in-law will cook for her."
Just as Luo Qingzhou was about to speak, Miss Qin II spoke softly, "Dad, Mom, you don't have to worry about this matter. Let Brother Qingzhou handle it. Maybe he doesn't like to eat at home, or with so many people. When the time comes, just let Brother Qingzhou invite him to eat outside alone. That way he will feel more comfortable."
Nangong Meijiao glanced at her, a thoughtful look on her face.
Qin Wenzheng thought about it and nodded, "That's right. Qingzhou, I'll ask the accountant to give you a hundred taels of silver later. You can thank them properly then."
Luo Qingzhou nodded, and seeing that they were all eating, he said goodbye: "Then I'll go back first. I just ate at my friend's house."
After saying that, he said goodbye and left.
When they reached the door, Nangong Meijiao suddenly said, "I'll come find you later. Let's go to Prince Duan's Mansion to play football with Xiaoxin."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Okay."
After he left, Song Ruyue suddenly said with a worried look on her face: "Master, you can't give him so much silver. Ten taels is enough. It's just a meal, it won't cost that much silver. Otherwise, they will go out to fool around after dinner."
Qin Wenzheng frowned and said, "You really don't trust Qingzhou? During the time you've been in Kyoto, hasn't Qingzhou done a good enough job?"
Song Ruyue pouted and said, "It's not that I don't trust him, it's that I don't trust his friends. You know that scholars like to visit brothels. After they drink some wine, his friend may instigate them, and then maybe..."
Nangong Meijiao suddenly said, "Don't worry, Auntie. I'll go with him. I really want to see who his friend is. He actually keeps a spiritual creature like a fire fox at home."
When Song Ruyue heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "With Meijiao following us, everything will be fine."
Miss Qin glanced at her, lowered her head and ate in silence.
Luo Qingzhou did not return to his exiled immortal residence.
He came to Lingchan Moon Palace.
I kept thinking about it along the way, and I always felt that I should apologize to Miss Qin for what happened in the morning.
Otherwise, if the news gets to my mother-in-law, it will be even worse.
"Winter! Winter! Winter!"
He came to the door and raised his hand to knock.
The clear voice of Bai Ling rang out in the yard: "Who is that bad guy knocking on the door? Tell me your name!"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Bai Ling, open the door."
Bailing immediately said, "No! Son-in-law, don't come here again, or Chanchan won't forgive you. You bullied the young lady, and Chanchan is very angry!"
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, then said, "Bai Ling, I'm here to apologize to the young lady. Please open the door."
Bai Ling said: "No need, the young lady will not forgive you, you can go now."
Luo Qingzhou didn't say anything else and stood outside the door for a long time. When he was about to turn around and leave, the courtyard door creaked open.
Bai Ling held up a flower umbrella and glared at him angrily, "Son-in-law, you have to apologize to me too."
Luo Qingzhou stared at her for a while and asked directly: "Who knocked me out last night?"
Bai Ling turned around and left, saying, "Sir, the eldest lady is sitting in the pavilion at the back, and Chanchan is also there. Remember to be sincere when you go to apologize, otherwise Chanchan's sword will not spare you."
After saying that, he quickly ran into the house and disappeared.
Luo Qingzhou held an umbrella and walked into the yard, then walked toward the back garden from the side passage.
As soon as I reached the door, I suddenly heard a melodious piano sound.
Is someone playing the piano in the back garden
