In the early morning of the next day, a ray of sunlight quietly shot into the small courtyard kitchen.
Luo Yunchang shook his eyelids, squinted and opened his sleepy eyes. I looked around for a while, only to find that this was the kitchen, and I gave a bitter smile.
To cook some dishes yesterday, I actually got tired and slept here all night.
If this is said, no one will believe it. How could a cultivator in the Qi Gathering Realm be exhausted from cooking? But the fact is that she is more willing to practice cultivation than cooking.
However, just when she was about to stand up, she couldn't help but stunned. She was still covered with a simple single garment, and her back was soft, not as hard as a stove.
Pressing his lips lightly, Luo Yunchang slowly turned his head and looked to the side, only to see Zhuo Fan sitting calmly next to her. And what was pressed behind her was Zhuo Fan's arm.
"what… "
Luo Yunshang almost yelled out, but hurriedly covered his mouth. She never expected that Zhuo Fan would stay with her all night.
Unconsciously, his cheeks were a little red, Luo Yunchang stared at Zhuo Fan's calm sleep, involuntarily moving forward and slowly. A red lips with a sweet fragrance of a young girl gradually approached his face.
"Steward Zhuo, miss..."
Suddenly, a loud shout suddenly sounded in the small courtyard, and the broken voice of Pang Commander instantly entered the ears of the two. Zhuo Fan's brows trembled unconsciously, and his eyelids couldn't help but move.
Upon seeing this, Luo Yunchang immediately leaned on his shoulder and continued to pretend to sleep, but the long eyelashes were still shaking up and down nervously. It was as if he had done something shameful and was found out, his face flushed.
Zhuo Fan opened his sleepy eyes and took a deep breath. He didn't know what had happened just now. After the arrival of Commander Pang, he frowned and said, "Lao Pang, what is all the fuss about?"
"Uh, Brother Zhuo, miss her..." Commander Pang couldn't help being taken aback when seeing the two of them, and pointed to Luo Yunshang.
Zhuo Fan turned around to see Luo Yunchang's face flushed and shivering, and he couldn't help touching her head: "It's so hot. Could it be that I caught a cold when I slept here last night?"
Reluctantly shook his head, Zhuo Fan blamed himself secretly.
He wanted to take Luo Yunchang back to the room to rest last night, but he was afraid of waking her up, so he stayed here all night. But unexpectedly, it would make her sick.
"Lao Pang, I'll talk about anything later, I'll take this girl back to the room to rest."
Zhuo Fan picked up Luo Yunshang and walked straight to the room, but Lao Pang was in a big rush and said hurriedly: "No, Brother Zhuo, someone wants to ask the young lady to visit the house. I can't afford to offend him. what."
"I can't afford to offend, even if Qianlong Pavilion's invitation is not to go." Zhuo Fan was angry and said coldly, "Have you not seen that this girl has passed out? She must be seriously ill, how can we still meet guests? After a while, I will go to see him."
"Oh, Brother Zhuo, Steward Zhuo, this person must have the young lady personally come forward, but he has brought the gold medal from the Imperial Gift." Pang Commander anxiously said loudly.
Zhuo Fan couldn't help but stopped.
The person who has the gold medal bestowed by the imperial court is the royal guard. It can range from one person to death, and it can involve all nine tribes.
Of course, with the strength of the Imperial Seventh Family, the royal family did not dare to do so. But for a small family like them, that's not guaranteed.
Zhuo Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, and after thinking about it carefully, he said coldly: "Lao Pang, go and tell him. Say that my lady is unwell today, let him come again tomorrow."
"what?"
Hearing this, Pang Commander was shocked and couldn't help taking a breath.
The other party came by the emperor's order, so you just dismissed it, obviously you don't want to live anymore. However, Zhuo Fan knew it well. Thinking of what happened yesterday, he can be sure that the fat man sent this message.
And that fat guy is a nice person, and he definitely didn't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately. That's why he dared to refuse so decisively.
"Do as I said, right away!" Zhuo Fan shouted again.
"etc!"
Suddenly, Luo Yunchang yelled, broke free from Zhuo Fan's arms, and said solemnly: "Commander Pang, you let the person wait for a while, I'll go freshen up and go over."
"Yes!"
Commander Pang clasped his fists, unconsciously letting out a sigh of relief, secretly thanking him. If it hadn't been for the eldest lady to wake up in time and really do what Brother Zhuo said, I don't know how big the basket would be.
To say that our steward Zhuo is really not afraid of the heavens and the earth, but when we work with him, we are always frightened.
Commander Pang shook his head, and left with sorrow.
Zhuo Fan looked at Luo Yunshang with doubts in his eyes. Why did you just seem to be unconscious, and why did you wake up all at once
Luo Yunshang gave him a charmingly blank look: "Why are you so rash, can the royal family offend him easily?"
After finishing speaking, Luo Yunchang ran away as if he was afraid that Zhuo Fan would see something. Only Zhuo Fan shook his head and walked to the meeting room, filled with doubts.
When he came to the meeting room, Zhuo Fan saw the person who passed the order, dressed up all over his body, and the strength of gathering Qi peak was one of the bearers who carried the sedan chair to the fat man yesterday.
"You are the steward Zhuo, my master invites you to go to the mansion with Miss Luo!"
Seeing Zhuo Fan, the man stood up and hugged his fists, but his face was arrogant, and the light of disdain in his eyes made no secret of it. And knowing whether it was intentional or unintentional, the imperial gift gold medal was always dangling around his waist, as if for fear that others would not know that he was a royal guard.
With a cold snort, Zhuo Fan sneered in his heart: "Pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of Lao Tzu, you are still tender. When Lao Tzu pretended to be forced, you were not born in your mother's belly."
Without looking at the person, Zhuo Fan sat on the seat with a golden sword, raised a Erlang's leg, and ignored him.
The man's face changed, and an anger suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"That fat man's injury is okay." Suddenly, Zhuo Fan said quietly.
That person couldn't help but froze, Fatty
Then he suddenly realized that the fat man in Zhuo Fan's mouth was his master. But in this world, there are absolutely no more than ten people who dared to call his Patriarch Fatty so openly.
So, the relationship between this person and the owner...
For a moment, the person was panicked, and there was no more arrogance in his eyes, but a little respectful said: "My master went back yesterday and didn't mention any injuries."
"Yes?"
Zhuo Fan raised his eyebrows, glanced at the man sideways, and laughed out: "Hahaha... That must be the fat man's face, not to mention it. I punched him more than 30 punches yesterday and kicked him more than a dozen times. Feet, can he be okay?"
"You're right? That kid is just pretending to be coercive, and I don't want you guys to laugh at him, hahaha..." Zhuo Fan raised his brows at the man with a smile on his face.
The corners of the man's mouth twitched fiercely, and he didn't know how to answer, which was extremely embarrassing.
"By the way, after Fang Qiubai went back yesterday, was he still angry?" At this moment, Zhuo Fan suddenly looked at him carefully and whispered.
The man was taken aback and shook his head slightly.
He had completely believed Zhuo Fan's words now, and Fang Qiubai came back with their master yesterday, and they knew that Fang Qiubai had also come here. But Zhuo Fan actually knew it too, which showed that he was really close to his master.
Thinking of this, the man hurriedly stuffed the gold medal back into his pants quietly. This kind of thing can scare others, so don't be ashamed of it in front of this master.
"Huh, great!"
Seeing that person shaking his head, Zhuo Fan pretended to take a sigh of relief, and said fortunately: "You don't know. Yesterday the old man had to accept me as a disciple. If it weren't for my loyalty, I would rather die than obey. The old man took him away. I was afraid that he would be angry and would pester me again in the future. After listening to you, I was relieved. The old man seems to have understood my difficulties."
"What, Fang Qiubai wants to accept you as a disciple?"
When the man heard the news, he couldn't help being shocked, and he fell on the ground with a limp.
Oh my god, who is the man in front of me? Not only is the master's friend, but the master didn't say a word if he was beaten by him, and even Fang Qiubai, the sword god of the jade flute, who had to be courteous to three points when he saw him, would accept him as his disciple
Seeing him pale in shock, Zhuo Fan sneered again and again, but on the surface he still said strangely: "Hey, what's the matter with you, why did you suddenly fall to the ground?"
"I will help you up!" Zhuo Fan said from his mouth, but he didn't move at all.
The man was clever and hurriedly got up from the ground and waved his hands again and again: "No, butler Zhuo, how dare you be a gift to you? You are so small."
"Huh, the nature of a slave!" Zhuo Fan curled his lips in disdain, humming coldly, "Help you, what kind of gift?"
"This must be the emperor's messenger, right?"
At this time, Luo Yunshang walked out after dressing up, brightly moving, not to be anything, and bowed slightly to that person. When the man saw him, he hurriedly threw himself on the ground, knocked his head and cried, "You have broken the villain, don't do that. If the master knows that I'm rude to his friends, he will definitely punish the younger ones."
Luo Yunchang was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Zhuo Fan for a while. Zhuo Fan shrugged slightly, saying that he was unclear.
Commander Pang, who followed, was dumbfounded for an instant.
You weren't like that just now, it was like two to five to eighty thousand. Why did my lady not come out for a stick of incense, so she was all over the house, why is she so polite now
And compared to just now, it was obviously too polite.
Commander Pang looked at Zhuo Fan suspiciously, but only saw him show a mysterious smile.
Soon, Lao Pang knew that all this was related to the steward Zhuo, and he stretched out a thumb.
To make the royal guards bow down to a small family like ours, only our steward can do it.
Zhuo Fan waved his hand casually, turned to look at the man, and said solemnly: "What is the fat man asking for us?"
"This... the little one doesn't know, but the little one was ordered to invite the Cai family, Lei family, and Luo family of Fenglincheng to go to the mansion to discuss it in detail." The man said obediently.
Zhuo Fan narrowed his eyes, as if thinking of something.
Could it be that Nether Valley’s secrets against the three families are also related to the royal family...
