My master can't be so gentle

At Shi Lingguang's request, Shen Lan ordered people to invite Prince Ming and the 'Second Prince' to the living room.

Although Prince Ming is already in his thirties, he looks younger than Shen Lan.His appearance is very handsome, his eyebrows are two points similar to Shi Lingguang, and his demeanor has an innate grace and demeanor.

Calculated, he should be one of Shi Lingguang's few remaining relatives in the lower realm.

He was really surprised when he saw Shi Lingguang, but after the surprise, he didn't look happy.

That fake Shi Lingguang timidly followed behind him, and he was quite cute too.While Shi Lingguang was secretly looking at him, he was also secretly observing Shi Lingguang.

"Not as cute as me." After Shi Lingguang came to this conclusion, he continued to act like a baby in Zuo Yao's arms.

"Ouch~" Ye Lan lay on Yuan Xuan's shoulder in the shape of vomiting.

"I chose this child among the clan. He probably looks the most like Ling Guang." Prince Ming pushed the child behind him to the front of the crowd, and at the same time explained in a low voice, "I do this Everything is for resisting that tyrant Shi Wangnan and saving the people of the world from suffering. If Shi Wangnan is allowed to continue acting recklessly like this, I am afraid that the entire Dayou Dynasty will be buried with him. As a descendant of the Shi family, I really can't bear to see it Shi Wangnan will destroy the country and mountains of the Great You Dynasty."

Zuo Yao took a few glances at the child, and found that his facial outline was somewhat similar to that of Shi Lingguang. After careful comparison, of course, Shi Lingguang was more beautiful and cuter.

"Whatever you choose, you will bear the cause and effect. Ling Guang is no longer a person of the lower realm, let alone interfere with the affairs of the lower realm. Please keep this in mind." Zuo Yao reminded lightly.

After knowing that Shi Lingguang had already set foot in the realm of comprehension and would no longer intervene in the secular affairs of the lower realms for power and profit, Prince Ming's attitude became much more cordial and enthusiastic.

"Uncle Huang did it out of necessity, Ling Guang, you don't blame Uncle Huang, do you?" Although Prince Ming was asking about Ling Guang, his gaze kept on looking at Zuo Yao.

Shi Lingguang smiled half-truthfully: "Lingguang understands, I won't blame Uncle Huang."

The throne is always full of infinite temptations for people in the world. This most noble position in the world does have a powerful charm that can make relatives turn against each other.

Even if they are sucking the blood of their dead relatives, as long as they can reach the pinnacle of power, there will be people who will never tire of doing it.

The blood of the emperor's family also flowed in Prince Ming's body, and his bloodthirsty and aggressive nature was in his bones.

Now that Datong has been abolished and chaos is everywhere, it is not a shameful thing for him to take advantage of this opportunity to rise to power.As long as you have enough ability to match your ambition, what can you not do?

What surprised Shi Lingguang was that he was able to persuade Shen Lan to help him.Shen Lan made a move, which meant that the Shen family had also joined Prince Ming's side.

In the previous life, Ling Guang had been in the upper realm and never left, and it is not clear who won the final victory in this fight in the lower realm.

However, compared to Shi Wangnan, he would rather make Prince Ming the final winner.

At least Prince Ming is more likely to reverse the case and rectify the name of the first emperor in the future, even if it is due to his superficial affection and the banner he is holding up now to restore the Qing Dynasty to the country.

But right now, it seems that the National Restoration Army that Prince Ming raised under the banner of the second prince is not successful at all. It is still too early to wrestle with Shi Wangnan who has already controlled the entire country.

Both Prince Ming and 'Shi Lingguang' need time to grow up, but obviously, Shi Wangnan won't give them enough time.

Shen Lan was obviously dissatisfied with Prince Ming's eagerness to confirm whether Shi Lingguang still had ideas about the throne, but after receiving negative answers from Zuo Yao and Shi Lingguang, he could only remain silent.

Now the situation in Youdu is treacherous and the situation is unpredictable. Even their Shen family with deep roots is like walking on thin ice above the court, fearing that if they make a wrong step, they will be in an abyss that will never be restored.

When they used the fake Second Prince to recruit the late emperor's former troops, they were destined to be tied to this big ship that could not be turned back.

Shi Lingguang was just a name they used to win over that group of people, even if it wasn't Shi Lingguang, it would be Shi Zhiming or anyone who could have a relationship with the late emperor and use it to make a big fuss.

If the name is not correct, the words will not go well, and if the words are not good, then things will not happen.

Playing the banner of the blood of the late emperor, whether it is the prince of Ming or the former emperor's side, they can get along with face, and the people of the world will agree with them.

No one really thought that a five-year-old child could become the emperor who ruled the world. They just temporarily needed a tool man who could satisfy them to rise up in a justifiable way.

Prince Ming behind the 'Shi Ling Guang' is the one they really choose to work for.

A five-year-old child would not understand this, but Shi Lingguang, who had resurrected his life, had already realized it.

That's why Shen Lan showed guilt in his eyes when he first saw the real Shi Lingguang appear.It's not that he doesn't know that the second prince next to Prince Ming is fake, but the situation is so compelling that even if he knows it's fake, he has to take it as real.

As for whether the real Shi Lingguang is alive or dead, those of them who are carried forward by the torrent of the times have no time to care about it.

Shen Lan's guilt may be for Shi Lingguang himself, or for making a fuss about his unjust death, but Shi Lingguang doesn't want to get to the bottom of it anymore.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish. If people live too transparently, it will be a drag instead.

In the dead of night.

Shi Lingguang sneaked out of the room quietly, the heavy rain outside had stopped, and the air was much fresher than before it rained.It's just that the dark clouds above the head still haven't dissipated, and the yard is so dark that one can only vaguely distinguish where is the pool and where is the rockery.

He strolled to the gazebo in the corner of the yard, looked at the rain-soaked stone tables and benches, sighed after a while, and simply squatted on the railing to look at the koi in the pond.

He remembered that in the imperial garden of the imperial city, there was also a large group of koi of this color. Those fish were raised by the palace people to look fat, fat, stupid and stupid. Swim to the shore to beg for food.

It's downright stupid.

"Can't sleep?" Suddenly, a deep voice came from above his head.

When Shi Lingguang suddenly raised his head, he saw Zuo Yao standing silently behind him at some point, looking at him calmly.

Shi Lingguang, on the other hand, lost his balance and was about to fall into the pond because his movements were too wide.

Zuo Yao quickly grabbed his collar and lifted him off the railing.

Shi Lingguang took advantage of the situation and threw himself into Zuo Yao's arms, his voice was rarely choked with sobs: "Master."

Zuo Yao held the little boy in his arms, and his mood was unprecedentedly gentle: "Huh?"

"The chef at Uncle Shen's house cooks too badly. I'm not full for dinner. I'm so hungry." Shi Lingguang sniffed and said aggrievedly.

Zuo Yao pulled him out of his arms, suppressed the urge to throw the poor boy into the pond and asked softly, "Is it because of that fake 'Shi Ling Guang'?"

Shi Lingguang raised his head and wanted to continue talking nonsense, but after seeing the worried look in Zuo Yao's eyes, he finally lowered his head: "Yes."

After he was reborn, Zuo Yao protected him so well that he was so dull that he realized that he had nothing left in the lower realm.

Thinking about it carefully, he actually didn't need to go down to the lower realm to cut off any cause and effect, because the people in the lower realm who had connections with him had already taken the initiative to cut off everything.

Even Shen Lan, whom he regards as half his father, chose to give up on him a long time ago.

"Master, I only have you now." Shi Lingguang hugged Zuo Yao's waist tightly, hiding his face in the darkness, "So, you can't let me go."

In the lower realm, he has no way back, and Zuo Yao is the only way back that he can grasp in the palm of his hand.

Zuo Yao heard the pleading words from the little boy in his arms with a slightly trembling and immature voice, and felt sharp and intense pain in the softest part of his heart, as if being torn apart.

This child made him feel so distressed that he didn't know what to do.

The child he had always held in his palm was hurt by someone he once trusted, and he witnessed this scene with his own eyes, but he didn't know what kind of spell could make Shi Lingguang avoid this kind of harm.

He has the power to move mountains and fill seas, but he doesn't know how to avoid the harm caused by the complex and changeable human heart to Shi Lingguang.

Zuo Yao didn't care about the intrigues of mortals in the lower realm, nor the infighting of monks in the upper realm. He always cared about only a few people.

And Shi Lingguang was undoubtedly the person he valued the most after his rebirth and return.

In the previous life, he could not give this child a happy life, but in this life, what he is willing to give is all he has.

If Shi Lingguang will be harmed from the outside world, then he will turn into his strongest armor and resist all swords for him.

"Master will not want you," Zuo Yao's eyes were as cold as snow, "So, all you need is Master."

"Then if I do something wrong, Master won't want me?" Shi Lingguang looked up at Zuo Yao eagerly, wanting to get a promise about the future from him.

"No." Zuo Yao didn't know why Shi Lingguang suddenly asked such a question, but at this moment, Shi Lingguang was just a child who was eager to grab something because he was worried about being abandoned. That's all.

He is willing to be the life-saving straw that Shi Lingguang holds in his palm, even if he drowns with him, it can be regarded as redeeming himself.

"Master." Shi Lingguang sniffed the faint smell of cedar on Zuo Yao's body, and his thoughts drifted to another place, "Will you find me a teacher's wife in the future?"

Zuo Yao was stunned for a moment, a little unable to keep up with Shi Lingguang's jumpy thinking: "Do you want a teacher's wife?"

"Absolutely not." Seeing that Zuo Yao might have misunderstood himself, Shi Lingguang immediately jumped up and explained, "Uh, what I mean is, will you not want me if you have a teacher wife?"

Zuo Yao frowned slightly and thought for a while: "Don't worry, there should be no one in the upper world who wants to become a Taoist companion with Master."

Shi Lingguang cried in his heart, Master, you really don't know anything about your own charm.

"But I heard from Senior Sister that many people wrote love letters to Master." Shi Lingguang made nonsense and silently apologized to Xuanyin in his heart. , I will definitely make up for it later.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Yao listened to Shi Lingguang's words, and told him very seriously: "Those invited me to drink and practice swords, not so-called love letters."

Shi Lingguang was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered Zuo Yao's two major hobbies in his life. He thought that those people came here to suit their interests, and they couldn't express their feelings directly, so they spoke euphemistically and ambiguously in the letter.

It's just that Zuo Yao has always been slow in dealing with feelings, as long as they don't express their purpose straight to the point, Zuo Yao can't understand their tortuous intentions at all.

After figuring out the reason, Shi Lingguang's mood suddenly became much better.But soon, he began to have mixed feelings again.

Master's slowness in dealing with emotions is a group skill, which also means that he is also in that group!

After a moment of silence, Shi Lingguang tentatively asked again: "Master is so good, it's not like there isn't a single suitor?"

Zuo Yao thought for a while, and a masked figure jumped into his memory.

He paused suddenly, then shook his head to drive away the figure of the man.

For a person who dare not show his true face, talking about what he likes is too vague.

However, when Shi Lingguang saw this scene, the alarm immediately sounded in his heart. With the appearance of the master, there must be someone chasing the master without his knowledge, right?

Since he was reborn, he has been clinging to Master almost every day. It is impossible for Master to have contact with others without his knowledge.

So it should be the people around you?

Could it be someone from Jianmen?

Could it be red beans?Master doesn't seem to be very special to him?

Who is it?

Shi Lingguang's thoughts were chaotic, he guessed all the people who had appeared around Zuo Yao, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, everyone looked like a villain plotting against his master.

This world is full of malice, if only he could hide the master in a place that only he can enter and exit.

In the next room, Ye Lan, who was lying on the pillow in a half-dream and half-awake, covered her head with her short wings and groaned in pain: "Shi Lingguang doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, what the hell is he eating? ?”

Yuan Xuan, who was lying beside him, opened his eyes and glanced at him, then closed them silently.
