Chapter 10 10. Doing my best

Ruier the cat was under the beam, waiting for the sparrowhawk to fly low. He leaned forward and grabbed the sparrowhawk and flew out of the corridor, but he still heard Zhou Ji's shout from behind: "Stop!"

Rui'er couldn't resist, so he could only hide the sparrow eagle behind him, put on a harmless smiling face, and looked at Zhou Ji who was walking out of the study.

Zhou Ji didn't say a word, just stretched out his hand towards Rui'er.Rui'er was puzzled, and blinked at Zhou Ji for no apparent reason, her long eyelashes casting mottled shadows on her cheeks.

"You dare not even listen to my words?" Zhou Ji still stretched out his hand towards Rui'er, his tone became more serious, "Bring it!"

Rui'er couldn't help it, so he gave the sparrowhawk in his hand to Zhou Ji, and said dissatisfiedly: "It turns out that Your Highness asked me to tame the sparrowhawk for the purpose of making love."

"I want you to take care of it!" Zhou Ji glanced at Rui'er, "My fair lady, a gentleman is so good, and you don't understand."

"I don't understand, but does Your Highness know what the white fox's magic is?"

"Is Baimei Huansheng?" Zhou Ji disapproved, "So what? Do you think she used demonic methods on me?"

Rui'er kept a cold face and didn't answer.

"You've been with her several times I've seen her, do you think she's used it?" Before Rui'er could answer, Zhou Ji added in a strong tone, "To tell the truth."

Both are half-demons, and each other can detect whether they have used demon techniques. At this time, Zhou Ji's sentence "tell the truth" made Rui'er reluctantly utter the truth - "no".

Zhou Ji didn't say a word when he heard that, so he threw it to Rui'er, "Look at what I said, you're just worrying and meddling in other people's business, we two are obviously in love with each other, you insist on driving a wedge between us, if you continue to hinder us from falling in love with me I really lost my face" and turned and entered the study.

Rui'er was extremely depressed, and after spending a long time in the autumn sun, she calmed down and went into the study.In the room, Zhou Ji had just finished the last stroke. He looked around for a long time and was very satisfied. He hurriedly called Rui'er to come and have a look.

Rui'er walked over, but saw that Zhou Ji's painting was Susu again.This time, the background is the autumn scenery of the Forest of God, with red maples, golden apricots, decayed grass, and fallen leaves. Although the sun is not in full bloom, there is no sign of decay, because the girl in the painting is light and lively, with flying silver hair and a graceful skirt. , Wherever the long sword in his hand went, there seemed to be brilliance flowing, shining brightly.

"How?" Zhou Ji couldn't hide his excitement and asked Rui'er, "Can you express yourself?"

"Very good." No matter how much resentment there was in her heart, Rui'er had to admit Zhou Ji's painter.

"Hey..." Unexpectedly, Zhou Ji let out a long sigh, and said with regret, "No matter how vivid the painting is, it can only depict a three-point charm of the beauty. Forget it, let's just make do with it, talking is better than nothing."

"..." Rui'er really had nothing to say.

In Qianluozhuang, Bai Yuheng looked at the piles of food boxes all over the room, and he was speechless.

"They said it was a reward for me, but they moved here with you." Su Sheng emerged from behind Bai Yuheng, and said faintly, "Could it be that in the eyes of outsiders, you and I are already so close?"

"Brother..." Bai Yuheng ignored Su Cheng's teasing, and only asked, "What did you sell to the Seventh Prince?"

"Probably, a few sword books."

"what?!"

"Don't you know?" Su Cheng was very surprised, "The Seventh Prince worshiped me as the martial arts lecturer, and from next month, every five will come to the World Spirit Hall to learn martial arts from me."

"I know this, but what I'm curious about is, since I worship you as the Wu lecturer, why didn't you go to the palace to give lectures? Also, why is this ceremony full of food?"

"Ask knowingly." Su Sheng pointed to Luo Luo who was flipping through the food box excitedly and said, "I'm just an extra, that's all."

"Master Su!" Luo Luo seemed to be starved for a long time and suddenly encountered a pie from the sky, his face was a little abnormal with excitement, and he couldn't speak clearly, "This, these, I, can I eat?"

"Yes, eat as much as you want." Su Cheng walked over, rubbed the golden hair on Luo Luo's head and said, "But you have to promise me one thing."

"Okay! Ten thousand pieces are fine!"

"Eh..." Su Cheng felt a toothache, turned to Bai Yuheng and asked, "Is he really fine in the future with his appearance?"

Bai Yuheng expressed helplessness by putting his hands on his forehead.Luo Luo couldn't wait, shook Su Cheng's arm and asked, "Master Su! Tell me, what's the matter?"

"That's right, the Seventh Prince worshiped me as the Wu lecture seat, but I'm too busy, so you will teach him for me."

"Me?" Luo Luo hesitated, "Can I do it?"

"Why not? Your master Bai Ling doesn't know sword skills, and most of your sword skills are passed down to me, and you can be regarded as half of my students." Su Cheng pretended to be a teacher, and coaxed, "Now for The teacher has accepted another student, who is considered your younger brother, and it is reasonable for you to be a teacher on behalf of your brother."

"Oh, that's how it is." Luoluo suddenly realized, "Okay, I'll teach you."

Su Sheng tried his best not to laugh, and nodded solemnly.Bai Yuheng completely lost sight of it, walked out of the house holding his forehead.

Fallen leaves turn into snow, and everything in the Forest of God's View is in the cycle of day-to-day reincarnation.The white snow cuts off all the hustle and bustle. The first love in the spring, the whispers in the summer night, and the tenderness in the warm autumn sun are all submerged in the howling north wind, and there is only loneliness in the world.

Contrary to the tranquility of the Forest of Gods, the busyness and tension in the World Spirit Hall.The winter festival is approaching, and everyone in the World Spirit Hall is preparing for the upcoming sacrificial ceremony.Fengchang and Zongzheng's customary annual ceremony had just arrived, and the emperor's extra reward arrived again.The newly decorated main hall, Yudian Shi Zhangzhi came over to look around, and asked to change the incense stand again.A few young trainee spiritual masters had just set up the cauldron furnace and were stepping out of the main hall to move the incense stand, when they saw the door of the side hall suddenly opened, and Yi Wang Zhouji strode out with a gloomy expression.The spiritual masters hurriedly knelt down and saluted, and only got up tremblingly after Yang Xuan came out and ordered them to continue working.

Rui'er followed Zhou Ji without saying a word, and seeing Zhou Ji hit the wall with a fist, he called out distressedly: "Your Highness..."

"Are you also here to persuade me?" Zhou Ji asked angrily.

Rui'er shook her head, held Zhou Ji's hand that hit the wall, carefully blew on the scratches on it, and said softly: "If Your Highness is sad, you can hit me a few times to vent your anger. Anyway, I have thick skin and can withstand beatings. Don't hurt yourself."

Zhou Ji's heart softened when he heard that, thinking of his depression, he asked aggrievedly, "Do you understand my thoughts?"

"Understood. In His Highness's heart, there is no distinction between a prince and a half-demon. His Highness's affection for Susu is a true one. What His Highness wants is for the two to be happy and depend on each other." Ruier looked at Zhou Ji, and smiled wryly. , "However, His Highness thinks this way, but others don't think so."

"I know, I didn't expect others to understand me, I just didn't expect..." Zhou Ji's eyes were full of disappointment, "I didn't expect my uncle to understand me."

"Yangming Yushen is doing it for His Highness's benefit." Rui'er persuaded, "He just doesn't want to see His Highness ruin his future for others."

"Another person?" Zhou Ji sneered, and said, "I, Zhou Ji, have lived for 15 years. This is the first time that I have fallen in love with a woman so much that I even evaded my father's intention to marry him a few times. Is this considered an outsider? What's more, the beauty and Can’t we have both futures?”

Looking at the hazy winter day in the distance, Zhou Ji was out of his mind for a while, and suddenly swept away the loneliness just now, and said to Rui'er: "The Beiman Mo people in the north of Fengchuan spy on our dynasty all the year round, and have constant conflicts with the border guards. There are also Qingqi raids, robbing cattle and sheep, and seizing women. The people in northern Xinjiang are miserable. Since the beginning of winter this year, they have even taken advantage of the heavy snow and cold to cross the Fengchuan Glacier. At the time of the court meeting, my father had already made up his mind to send the Seven Killers to assist Fengchuan and wipe out the foreign enemies." Zhou Ji took a deep breath and made his final decision, "Rui'er, I want to ask my father for orders to lead the army out !"

Rui'er was startled by Zhou Ji's words, and it took him a long time to ask: "What are you talking about, Your Highness?"

"I said I would lead troops to fight."

"I know, but, why His Highness?"

"The Seven Killing Army can only be commanded by the emperor's relatives. As the eldest son, if I don't go, do I want my father to march in person?"

"Aren't there other royal relatives and princes?"

"My king and all the princes, would my father trust others but not his eldest son?"

"Of course the emperor trusts His Highness the most, but..." Rui'er hesitated for a moment, but still asked anxiously, "Will Your Highness lead troops?"

"Presumptuous!" Hearing this, Zhou Ji punched Rui'er first, and said angrily, "Did you even forget that this king has been in charge of the defense of the imperial capital now? Who taught you the art of war on weekdays? Do you know that this king's grandfather The family has been generals for generations, and this king went out with his uncle when he was 13 years old. At that time, you didn't know where to catch birds and walk eagles, and you dare to question this king?"

"Yes! Your Highness is both civil and military, wise and brave!" Rui'er bowed to Zhou Ji, "It's Rui'er who is ignorant."

Although Rui'er's words made Zhou Ji depressed, but when he thought about it carefully, every sentence was worried about him, and he was very heart-warming. He stretched out his hand to support Rui'er and said softly: "Don't worry, my way of leading troops is definitely not just on paper. , not to mention that the main force has its own generals to command, I am only responsible for leading the Seven Killers to assist, and nothing will happen."

"Well, Rui'er will definitely protect His Highness."

Hearing this, Zhou Ji patted Rui'er on the shoulder with a smile, turned around and walked on the official road.Rui'er followed behind him, thought and thought, and finally couldn't help asking: "His Highness's invitation to go out this time, is it... related to Susu?"

"You think it was my impulsive decision?" Zhou Ji asked without answering.

Rui'er was silent, and Zhou Ji said helplessly when he saw this: "As a prince, the first thing I think of is my family, country, country, country, and society. This is my responsibility. The purpose of inviting Ying to go to the war is indeed to relieve father's worries and clear up foreign chaos. It’s what I should do. Besides, I also have selfishness.” Zhou Ji glanced back at the direction of Qianluozhuang, and said softly, “If I can achieve military merits and return to the court with great victory, it will be justifiable. This is the only way for Susu and I to be rewarded with a half-demon, and for this reason, I am willing even if we cannot see each other thousands of miles away." Zhou Ji withdrew his gaze and looked at Susu again. World Spirit Hall, "There is also a little selfishness. I want to let the world see if it is possible to have both a beauty and a future."
