Covenant of the next life

Another 58 years passed in a blink of an eye.

Not long ago, the spies Qing Zhu sent to the world to inquire about Mo Yue's reincarnation finally got news, but before Qing Zhu had time to tell Qin Tian the news, Mo Yue's first life had already died in battle.

Immediately there will be the Prayer Festival once every 700 years. This is one of the few festivals in the heaven that will be solemnly celebrated. It is said that this is the commandment given by the ancient gods to the immortals in the heaven. It is something to pray for during this festival. Another world The Creator of God can hear.On that day, even the world can see large expanses of meteor showers.

Qin Tian was dealing with the affairs that Qingzhu had entrusted to him, while Shaohua and Yimeng were also busy with their own affairs.

There were a few footsteps and conversations outside, and Qin Tian went out to see that it was Qing Zhu who was leading Ke Shu and several other core officials of the heavenly realm.

"Your Majesty, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Yes, I do have a few things to say."

Qing Zhu led them in, and Qin Tian also followed.Shaohua and Yi dreamed that Qingzhu had brought others over, so they stood up and saluted respectfully.

Qing Zhu found a random place and sat down, "I brought a few of them here because I have a major matter to settle, so it would be better for them to be present."

Qin Tian felt a little uncomfortable when there were too many people, "Please speak, Your Majesty."

Qing Zhu was a little dissatisfied and said, "Why are you so awkward, relax a little, it's not a bad thing."

Shaohua heard the words and leaned against Qingzhu, "Master, does what you want to say have something to do with the prayer festival?"

"That's right. It's like this. I think many people have noticed that I intend to choose you and Yimengli as the heir apparent. I thought I would announce it during the prayer festival."

When Shaohua heard Qingzhu say this, he felt uneasy, "Master, why did you appoint the prince so early?"

"I don't think there are any taboos, just be prepared." Qing Zhu turned to Yi Meng and said, "Yi Meng, you have a delicate mind and a safe way of doing things. After I became the emperor, there has never been a suitable position for You Cheng. Candidate, you come to sit in this position, and in the future, you will assist Shaohua like I once assisted your mother, okay?"

There was a trace of disappointment in Yi Meng's eyes, but she still nodded sensiblely, Ke Shu saw everything in her eyes.

Qingzhu took Shaohua's hand, "Shaohua, you are talented and intelligent, and you are good at judging people's hearts. I want to make you the crown prince. Do you have confidence?"

Shaohua was in a complicated mood, "Master, are you sure?"

Qing Zhu smiled lightly, "I have confidence in you."

"Then I will try my best not to disappoint Master."

After leaving Qin Tian's house, Ke Shu couldn't help but say a few more words.

"Qingzhu, I still don't think it's right for you to do this. Even if you decide to choose one of them, there is no need to decide so early. The things they have experienced are far from enough. Who is better? I don't know, don't you think it's too unfair to Yimeng?"

"Early decision also has the advantages of early decision. If the candidate is decided early, everyone can calm down and don't have to think about fighting for the reserve. I don't hope that one day they will have an unpleasant fight because of the reserve position."

"Then why didn't you choose Yimeng?"

Qing Zhu turned to look at Ke Shu, who was waiting for his answer.

"Shaohua sees things clearly and knows how to advance and retreat. Why can't I choose him? I was also Youcheng back then. If Yimeng is really capable, and he is in the position of Youcheng, he has a lot of room to display. It is not a talent. gone."

Ke Shu approached Qingzhu, "Shaohua won because of his appearance, right? Because he looks more like Mo Yue, right?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse, the surrounding officials hurriedly saluted and left.

Qing Zhu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his emotions had been suppressed, and he regained his composure.

"If you think so, then so be it."

After Qing Zhu finished speaking, he walked forward, Ke Shu turned around and walked in the opposite direction with him.

Prayer Day is coming soon.

That day, Shaohua had already changed into the dress sent by the Ministry of Rites, while Yimeng was carefully dressed by Qin Tian.Qin Tian was very satisfied with Yimeng's pink and elegant little princess dress, and found a piece of feather hairpin to pin it next to Yimeng's ear.

At night, beside the praying pool, all the immortals are setting off lanterns.The most sincere wishes are written in each lantern, and these lanterns will carry all the good wishes and float along the wishing pool to the world, turning into bright shooting stars.

Now there is still a long way to go before the start of the Wishing Festival, Shaohua and Yimeng are like other immortals to set off lanterns.

Yimeng squatted by the pool and was about to light up the lamp, but was snatched away by Shaohua. After realizing it, he hurriedly chased after him and tried to snatch it back.

"Shaohua! Pay me back!"

"No, let me see what you wrote in the lantern first."

Yimeng grabbed Shaohua's clothes and continued to snatch them, "No! Give it back to me!"

After all, Yimeng is a girl in stature, she is smaller than Shaohua, so she can't compete with Shaohua who is taller than herself.

Shaohua stopped her from looking at what she wrote, "There are few stars in the world today, and we still have to wait until the clouds disperse. You wrote so profoundly, when do you mean when the clouds disperse?"

Yi dreams that Shaohua is unprepared at this time, and snatches Shaohua's own lantern, turns around and runs away.

"Hey! Yimeng! Come back!"

After running for a while, Yimeng stopped to read Shaohua's writing.

What was written on the lantern was: I hope that master will be happy forever, that father will be safe and successful, that mother will be able to reshape the fairy body, and that there is a dream. I hope that we can stay together forever.

Yimeng's eyes were a little bit astringent, and he felt that his psychological imbalance in the past few days was unreasonable.

As soon as Shaohua caught up, Yimeng stuffed the lantern back into his arms, "Okay, I'll return it to you."

Shaohua took back the lantern with some embarrassment, "Do you think my wish is too petty?"

"will not."

"really?"

"real."

At the grand gathering of the Prayer Festival, Qingzhu officially named Shao as the crown prince and Sheng Yimeng as the right minister.

Shaohua and Yimeng knelt in front of Qingzhu to express their gratitude under the watchful eyes of all the immortals.Qingzhu was in a daze, as if he had returned to decades ago.

The last time the two of them bowed down to Qing Zhu so solemnly was when they were apprentices, they were still little babies at that time, time passed so quickly.

It was late at night when the event ended, and this night, Shaohua almost tossed and turned without sleep.Although he was going to formally meet the ministers as the crown prince the next day, he just couldn't sleep.

It must be a lie to say that I never thought about taking that position, but the current Tianjun is the master, and the status of the prince will always remind me that the master will leave one day, and the master will not be with me for the rest of my life.

Shaohua has never really imagined the scene of sitting in that position and ordering the officials one day, because there will be no master in that scene, so he doesn't want to think about it at all.

If he had a choice, he would rather have Master by his side forever.

The next day, Shaohua got up early and went to the main hall on time.

Shaohua habitually looked for that familiar figure, but he didn't see him.

Ke Shu was talking to Yi Meng, and Shao Hua walked over.

"Zuo Cheng, why didn't my master come?"

Ke Shu replied, "Anyway, today's protagonist is you. Qingzhu is too strong to drink. He drank a few more glasses last night, and he still feels a little uncomfortable this morning. I advised him to continue to rest."

Hearing that Qingzhu was unwell, Shaohua felt restless.After finishing all the regulations with great difficulty, he rushed to Qingzhu's bedroom as soon as it was over.

Qingzhu was still lying down, but when she saw Shaohua coming in, she sat up.

"Is it over there?"

"It's over. Master, are you okay?"

"fine."

"Why don't you rest for a while?"

Qing Zhu pressed his forehead, "No need. There will be people coming to discuss matters later, so it's time to get up."

Shaohua took Qingzhu's coat from a clothes rack, helped him put it on, and tied the belt carefully.Qingzhu went to the vanity mirror and sat down, just picked up the comb to comb her hair, Shaohua snatched the comb and squatted beside Qingzhu.

"Master, let me comb your hair for you."

Qingzhu smiled helplessly, "It's not a child anymore, still making trouble?"

"No, I'm not making trouble, I just want to help you comb your hair."

Qingzhu sat upright, Shaohua slowly combed Qingzhu's long hair, and then took out a water-blue hairband from his arms to help Qingzhu tie it on.

"This is......"

"My dad just likes to buy clothes for Yimeng. I went with him that day. As soon as I saw this hairband, I thought you would look good with it. This is your color. I even went to find the embroiderer The bamboo leaves are embroidered on the hair band, um, it’s perfect.” Shaohua observed it from different angles, “Well, it really looks good.”

Shaohua seems to have suddenly realized the fun of Qin Tian's fancy dressing up of Yimeng, because now he really wants to play dress-up games with his master!

Qing Zhu blushed slightly unconsciously, "Your father also complained to me that you are not caring, but I don't think so. If anyone is with you in the future, they will be very happy."

"That's natural."

Qingzhu smiled slightly, "Shaohua, do you like boys or girls? Or, is there anyone in our clan that you can admire?"

Shaohua leaned on Qingzhu's shoulder, looked at him in the mirror and said, "In front of me is the best person in the world, with you here, who can get into my eyes?"

Qing Zhu gently pushed him away, "You know how to coax me."

Shaohua leaned over and hugged Qingzhu's shoulder again, "I didn't coax you. Master, I will always be with you, okay?"

With this simple sentence, Qing Zhu actually felt his eyes moist.

After calming down, he said, "What you are saying now is that you are still young and haven't met the person you like. When you meet, why would you want to accompany me? I'm afraid I won't even see your figure at that time." .”

"No!" Shaohua knelt down beside Qingzhu seriously, "I can swear now, I swear..."

Qingzhu covered Shaohua's mouth before he said the content, "Don't swear indiscriminately."

At this time, someone coughed lightly, Qing Zhu let go of his hand, turned around and saw that it was Qin Tian and Ke Shu standing at the door.

Ke Shu looked at Qingzhu and Shaohua in front of him, always felt that his appearance seemed to disturb them, so he turned and left.
