Surprise Circus

Qiu Zhen looked at Zhiming with dull eyes, while Qi Zhikan beside Qiu Zhen was still biting his bread with a look of horror.

"It's not good!!! The Duke is in our car!!!" Qi Zhikan swallowed the bread with difficulty, then opened the small window of the car and shouted, everyone stopped for a while.

Cassian said in a flattering way in embarrassment: "Master Duke, you are like... Tianquan..."

"Mo Lan doesn't eat dry food, besides, my teacher is here!" Zhi Ming stretched his waist and exercised his muscles.

Ah Li glanced at Jian Bin quietly, but unfortunately Jian Bin couldn't see his expression clearly while wearing sunglasses.But since Zhiming hinted that he and Jian Bin are in a cooperative relationship, then Zhiming can successfully hide in the circus and steal it, and Jian Bin can be said to be the biggest help.

"But the Duke is gone, why are there no knights chasing us?" Gongsun Qian wondered.

"Don't be surprised, I have already told Mo Lan that he will arrange everything for me! Tianquan has supported him for more than 20 years, and now is the time for him to play a role!" Zhi Ming waved his hand indifferently.

Gongsun Qian was inexplicably saddened by the ministers of Tianquan, and Geng Yin and Geng Chen knew that Zhi Ming had thoughts about A Li, so they exchanged worried looks with each other. Qiu Zhen didn't care what happened around him, he only cared about Ling Guang. Kun Yi, he doesn't care about Zhi Ming at all.

Cassian rolled his eyes, "Actually, it's nothing for the Grand Duke to go to the capital. If the Duke brings a token, it will be more convenient for us on the way..."

Zhi Ming pulled his collar to reveal the tattoo of the Tianquan totem under the right collarbone. In Tianquan, only people with titles can have the Tianquan totem tattooed on their bodies, and only dukes can tattoo it on their torso. More attention is paid to the snake scales on Zhiming's left body.

It seems that Zhiming's demi-beastization is also very serious... Jian Bin squinted his eyes.Thinking that although he has eyes with dynamic vision like cats, but also because of these eyes, the so-called bright colors in the world are at most not black and white in his eyes, but are insipid and frivolous colors.

I wonder if the world will be different in Zhiming's left eye?Jian Bin sneered.Qi Zhikan, who was beside him, felt that Jian Bin's attitude was a little strange and became suspicious.

It turned out that everyone thought that Zhiming was born noble and should know nothing and suffer a little bit, but they didn’t expect that he had no other complaints on the road except that he occasionally complained that he couldn’t wash up every day, and he even helped Gongsun Qian draw publicity posters and leaflets. He will also use the lute he brought to play the piano, and will not embarrass the members of the troupe with his identity.Because it is not easy to spread out on the road, although there will be stops on the road to perform and set up tents to show Lingguang Mengzhang and collect some tickets, but people are not too curious about the surrounded Lingguang Mengzhang, but pay more attention to it. A handsome and funny half-snake man full of talent.

"To be honest, Ling Guang has nothing to do with Meng Zhang, so there's no need to close it every day, right?" Zhi Ming suddenly mentioned while eating.

Cassien's face changed, he put down the wine glass in his hand (even though it was filled with water), and said seriously: "Ling Guang will fly away, and Meng Zhang has mental problems, he will not take the initiative to hurt people, but in case there is something wrong It's not good to take the initiative to tease him, Meng Zhang's claws are too powerful!"

Zhi Ming disagreed, "What's the matter? Ling Guang can fly, but his wings can only move himself. Isn't it enough to tie him to Qiu Zhen with an iron chain? As for Meng Zhang, it's even easier. , he will not take the initiative to run away, anyway, there is no way to act as a flying man on the road now, just let Geng Yin Geng Chen protect him!"

Cassian's expression turned ugly.

"Their cages are heavy and take up space. Selling them to blacksmiths can earn more income and reduce overall weight. Why not? They are not like Zhong Kunyi's wolves, so there is no need to keep them in cages!"

Luo Min & Gen Mochi: MMP

Zhong Kunyi looked back at the two resentful werewolves, and rubbed his nose.

Cassian hesitated for a moment, thinking of the two bodyguards he had to hire anyway, and the food and drink of a duke on the way (although Zhi Ming ate the same as everyone else), and the high rent in the suburbs of the capital, Still gritted his teeth and agreed to Zhi Ming's proposal.

In private, Gongsun Qian once lamented Zhi Ming's ability to A Li, saying that he underestimated this duke who looked like a dude.

Ah Li's first reaction was a little proud, which made him very uneasy, as if he was used to Zhi Ming's kindness to him, and regarded Zhi Ming as a close person.

This is very dangerous, thinking of Zhi Ming's expression of surprise and disgust after knowing his secret, Ah Li felt a spasm in his stomach, both uncomfortable and embarrassing.

Ling Guang in the cage was told by A Li about the cooperation between Zhiming and Jian Bin on the way. Jian Bin took the lead and was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but he was happy when he learned that Zhiming wanted to let him and Meng Zhang out of the cage.

But Meng Zhang is afraid of the outside world. After getting out of the cage, he has been sticking to Zhong Kunyi, and often wears Jian Bin's magician hat on his head. He seems to like it very much and is very used to wearing hats. I like to wear hats, so I don't mind giving them to Meng Zhang.

... After all, to cover up the horns on the forehead, the lineage of the Duke of Tianshu is famous all over the country for their tall and peculiar hats.Zhong Kunyi looked at Meng Zhang wearing a hat, feeling full of pity and heartache.

After nearly two months of traveling, the circus group finally arrived in the capital, and Zhi Ming was received by the Pope because of the tattoo letter on his body, and his noble status was restored, and rent was exempted for the circus on the outskirts of the city. Enke smiled happily.

The Pope's attitude towards Zhiming is terribly intimate, but considering that Tianquan is currently the only "pure land" that has not been contaminated by the Sect of All Beings, it is not difficult for everyone to understand.After all, the bishop sent to preach has not made any progress in Tianquan so far. The entire Tianquan is a big iron plate and a nearly invincible shield in Zhiming's hands.In the eyes of Tianquan people, the God of All Beings is not even half as good as his grand duke. This is a thorn in the pope's heart.

Zhiming asked to meet His Majesty, but was rejected by the Pope on the grounds that His Majesty was fasting and praying. Zhiming was not annoyed, saying that he wanted to pursue the wire beauty in the circus, and he didn't need to live in the castle, and continued to live with the circus people together.

"I thought Your Excellency would follow the Pope's request to live in the castle." Sitting next to Zhi Ming, Jian Bin twitched his lips slightly as he watched Zhi Ming stare at A Li who was rehearsing.

"Baffin came to the capital on purpose when I was the most infatuated with A Li. He wanted to lure me to follow him," Zhi Ming shrugged. "It's just that I didn't expect that I would come here alone."

"Trap? Could it be that the Pope wants to detain you, threatening Viscount Mo Lan to allow all sentient beings to preach in Heaven?" Jian Bin frowned.

"Oh, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Four lords and three lords are in danger one after another, and there is no master of sentient beings behind this, can you believe it?!" Zhi Ming said without hesitation, "I once died three years ago in winter because of the fire in the fireplace. The charcoal fire went out and I almost froze to death. If Mo Lan hadn’t written a song that night and wanted to share it with me immediately, I would have died of death. You must know that the servants and maids in the castle know that I am extremely afraid of the cold, and it is impossible to miss it. The charcoal fire, after careful investigation, it was discovered that the maid who kept watch that night was killed in the woodshed...Jian Bin, I took my life."

Jian Bin was silent for a while before opening his mouth, with a bit of embarrassment in his tone, "Your Excellency has close friends and loyal courtiers, that's really good, I was... assassinated by the national teacher in the first place, and it has nothing to do with the Sect of All Beings!"

Zhi Ming looked at Jian Bin all of a sudden, "Unexpectedly?!"

"He tampered with my potion ingredients, so I will have my witchcraft backfire!" Jian Bin gritted his teeth with hatred, "Later Tianji was divided up by several great witches, and the Sect of All Beings was only treated with courtesy by His Majesty. That's all, if I hadn't had an accident and gave the Sect of All Beings an excuse, how could it have developed into a nationwide ban on witches? Your Majesty believes in the Sect of All Sentences! But I can be sure that the disappearance of the Marquis of Yuheng must have been done by the Sect of All Sentences!"

Zhiming knew that Jian Bin had studied abroad in Yuheng when he was young, and had a classmate friendship with the Marquis of Yuheng. The Marquis was pregnant with an heir for almost nine months, but was suddenly taken away by thieves and lost her whereabouts. Marquis of Yuheng was also depressed because of this. In the end, after that, Yuheng was occupied and divided by the knights under the local All Beings Sect.Yuheng exists in name only.

Yuheng is Tianji's ally, and Jian Bin and Marquis Yuheng are classmates, and the actions of Sentient Sect to add insult to injury are probably more irritating to Jian Bin than the national teacher's assassination of himself.

Zhi Ming shook his head, "Tianji Guoshi has been divided into five horses by the sentient beings, and you have only one enemy left. Let's stay in hibernation for a while, and let's see the Pope's next move."

Jian Bin nodded, and then walked out of the big tent. Unexpectedly, Qi Zhikan, who was rehearsing with Qiu Zhen in the corner, followed Jian Bin when he left.

"Jian Bin!" Qi Zhikan glanced at Zhi Ming quietly, "Did you make any deal with the Duke?"

Jian Bin was startled, "Don't talk nonsense, Qi Zhikan!"

Qi Zhikan was worried, "I don't understand...you were very wary of A Li and the others when they first arrived, why did you relax so much with the Duke? And the day we left Tianquan...except me and Qiu Zhen , only you have touched the item box!"

"so?"

"...Could it be that you took some favor from Lord Duke to let him pursue A Li with us?" Qi Zhikan carefully expressed his guess.

"Hahaha, you're so funny. The duke and I are just getting along. Does the duke really want to come over, and he insists on my help?" Jian Bin said specious words, and returned to his carriage without looking back. superior.But he knew that if even Qi Zhikan could find out what was wrong with him, then the meticulous Gongsun Qian and the observant Zhong Kunyi would have discovered it long ago.But he is not afraid, not to mention that the most innocent Gongsun Qian in the regiment can do nothing but protect himself, Zhong Kunyi tentatively agrees with his purpose, and will not do anything against him and Zhiming.

Qi Zhikan stayed where he was and looked at Jian Bin's leaving back, still puzzled.

As for Zhiming, after Ah Li finished rehearsal, he took Ah Li to the capital's moat to enjoy the moon.

"A Li, it's a bit cold at night, you're still wearing performance clothes, be careful of catching cold." Zhi Ming carefully put the expensive cloak on A Li.

A Li touched the gem on the button of the cloak, looked up at Zhi Ming's side face, "Aren't you cold?"

Hearing that Ah Li was worried about him, Zhi Ming smirked, "It's neither cold nor cold, it's still early autumn, and the dress I'm wearing is very warm, so you can put it on, Ah Li!"

Ah Li nodded, and asked again: "Why do you always stand on my left?"

Zhi Ming smiled softly, hugged Ah Li with his right hand, and rubbed Ah Li's forehead with his right cheek without snake scales, "My right side is warmer."

Ah Li was speechless for a while, and stretched out his hand to caress the snake scale on Zhiming's left cheek, seeing Zhiming's indifferent smile, felt a burst of heartache.
