"Ha! That's right, I'm just a three-year-old child. What else can I do except make trouble?" Ling'er deliberately emphasized the word "make trouble".
It must be said that Emperor Shi Tian's words chilled her heart.
She thought she was making a scene...
He closed his eyes and calmed himself down as quickly as possible. The moment he opened his purple eyes again, the provocation had completely faded, replaced by indifference, which was different from the previous ones.
The calmness that excluded him made Di Shitian feel a strong fear in his heart. He subconsciously wanted to tighten his hands, but he suddenly thought of something, which slowed his movements for a few seconds.
In just a few seconds, Ling'er turned her body and broke free from his restraints. With a flash of purple light, she disappeared from the spot.
"Little thing!" He roared with almost all his strength, and the sound echoed in the hall.
However, there was still nothing in front of me, no one responded...
"She's leaving me... She's leaving me..." After he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty!"
"You disgusting stinky man, he actually said that I was making a fuss. I was just worried about him, worried about him!" On the outskirts of Tianze, a little girl in white clothes sat by the lake, cursing and throwing stones into the lake.
That look of resentment seemed to have mistaken the rippling lake for a man's face, and stones flew down.
Suddenly, there was a flash of red light, and a red-haired man was reflected in the water.
His long hair was as bright as flames, his red robe was enchanting and dazzling, and his face was gorgeous. He was a rare handsome man. However, he frightened a certain spirit who was throwing stones and almost fell into the lake.
"Ling, you should be more careful. You are so impetuous that you want to jump into the lake and commit suicide!"
The man in red pulled Ling'er aside and spoke nervously.
Hearing this familiar tone, Ling'er was startled, "You are not... are you Hong Yan?"
Only that idiot called her "smart", but the height ratio is too different.
Hearing this, the man in red raised his handsome eyebrows playfully. Then he stretched out his hand, lifted a strand of long hair in a coquettish manner, and threw a wink at Ling'er.
"Ling, I've told you I'm handsome, now you've seen it!"
"..." If you ignore what he said, this guy is indeed unreasonably handsome. If he were in modern times, he would probably be a superstar or something.
It is this personality that makes people disrespect it...
"Ahem, that... Hongyan, why did you become like this? Did you evolve?"
"..." A certain man who was posing and waiting for praise couldn't stop twitching his mouth after hearing Ling'er's words.
Evolved?!
Ling's brain is truly extraordinary; he can think of such an incredible situation!
"This is my original appearance. Didn't I tell you that the reason I became smaller was because... of an unexpected situation." In fact, he just slept too long, but he was too embarrassed to say such an embarrassing thing again.
Unfortunately, the more he felt embarrassed, the more the spirit wanted to embarrass him. "Oh, isn't it just that he slept too much and shrank? What an unexpected situation!"
"… "
"Then how did you recover?" After getting used to Hong Yan's current adult appearance, Ling'er sat down by the lake again and asked curiously.
Hong Yan sat down next to Ling Er, "It was the battle in the suburbs that day that almost exhausted all my strength. After returning, I was exhausted and passed out. After waking up, I became like this now."
"Oh? Does this count as rebirth from the ashes?"
“…” Please, of course not. The one that was reborn from the fire was the divine bird Suzaku. Although they are both of the fire element, their essences are completely different.
"No matter what, it's good that you can return to your original appearance." Ling'er's voice suddenly became serious, and the playfulness on her face just now disappeared.
However, when mentioning the original body, Mou Ling couldn't help but think of her own small body.
Oh, that's so sad.
"Hongyan, do me a favor and go to Yunhai City and ask Feng Ling and Xuan Yi to come over." Seeing Di Shitian's insistence, it was impossible to stop him from returning to the palace.
We can only ask Feng Ling and Xuan Yi to come over, just in case! No matter what, we must not let him get into trouble!
"But what will you do after I leave?" Who will protect her if she meets a bad guy
Ling'er naturally understood what he meant. She stood up and dusted herself off, "Don't worry, I'm definitely not weaker than you, and I won't let anything happen to me."
Because Hong Yan was still sitting, Ling'er reached out and patted his shoulder, signaling him not to worry.
"But… "
"No buts, this is an order!" His face was serious, with determination flashing in his purple eyes.
"Well, you have to wait for me to come back."
"Well, go quickly and come back soon."
Hong Yan nodded, then turned into a ray of red light and disappeared on the spot.
After Hong Yan left, Mou Ling became even more confused.
"Where am I going now?"
Return to the Imperial Palace? Absolutely impossible.
Although she really wanted to go back, it was clearly not her fault what happened this time.
She was wholeheartedly thinking about Emperor Shi Tian, but in the end all she got in return was a reply of "Stop messing around".
Was it because she had been acting cute and well-behaved for too long that he really treated her like a three-year-old child
Make trouble
Xia Ling'er never made a fuss, let alone something that concerned his safety.
Well, since I can’t go back to the Imperial Palace, I’ll go “visit” Prince Xuan.
Is he Brother Tian? Are the Ghost Guards trained by him? Is he the leader of the 'Old Ghosts'... There are many questions that she needs to figure out, so she must go find Nangong Tianlan.
Prince Xuan's palace is different from other palaces. Most palaces have stone lions at the gate, but in front of Prince Xuan's palace, there are two golden unicorns.
Even the door knocker is carved with a five-clawed golden dragon pattern.
Normally, dragon patterns only appear in the imperial palace. However, because the late emperor favored Prince Xuan, these were all special permits, and the other princes did not dare to say anything.
Besides, if Nangong Tianlan had not suddenly disappeared, the Tianqi Dragon Throne would be his today.
After glancing around and curling her thin lips, Ling'er walked straight to the gate of the mansion.
The guard at the gate saw a little girl coming over. She was dressed in unusual clothes, so he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Little girl, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Brother Tian." Ling'er smiled and answered obediently.
"Brother Tian?" The guard was confused when he heard this name, wondering: Who is this Brother Tian? (To be continued)
