Beijing, Xianke Tower.

As soon as Zhou Dao and Qin Baichu sat down, sixteen palace attendants in two rows next to them presented the snacks and fruits they had brought with them one by one.

Swallow antler cake, yellow pearl cake, snow oil and purple glutinous cake, ginseng king fruit, spiritual pulp kernel, eight treasures glazed soup...all are the food of the palace, some are even specially used by His Majesty, and only a few people who are close to him will eat them.

reward.

As the elder sister of Emperor Qin, the current eldest princess naturally has the best food and clothing in the palace.

Qin Baichu hadn't seen Zhou Dao for a long time, so naturally she took out all these rare things. She couldn't treat this little guy badly in her eyes.

"Aunt Qin, there are just two of us, isn't this battle a bit exaggerated?"

Zhou Dao lowered his voice and said.

These delicacies cannot help but be used by the royal family, and even the tableware is also an object of the palace, such as glazed lamps, jade heart pots, lapis lazuli plates, gold-plated silver horn cups... Just by showing this thing, the expressions of the diners next to him changed.

, got up quickly and left in a hurry.

Even a blind person can see that this person is either rich or noble, and he is probably a relative of the emperor.

With such a status, although the place has not been cleared, it would be a bit unwise to continue to stay.

Zhou Dao has been accustomed to keeping a low profile since he was a child, and he couldn't help but warn him when he saw this.

He knew that Qin Baichu loved him, but he didn't avoid it so much. Instead, he was very casual and relaxed.

"Where is the exaggeration? Which of your Majesty's princes is not bigger than this one? They can afford it, why can't you?" Qin Baichu said nonchalantly.

As long as Zhou Dao is around, she always wants to give him the best.

But these words made Zhou Dao speechless.

Even if this comes from the mouth of the eldest princess, if you think about it carefully, it is somewhat taboo.

No matter how you describe Zhou Dao's identity, he is just a foreign minister. How can he be compared with the princes of today? If someone with a heart hears this, he will be guilty of the following crime: treason.

"She is His Majesty's biological sister after all." Zhou Dao thought to himself, but he felt a little warm.

Ever since he was a child, no female elder has ever been so kind to him, almost treating him like a biological son.

"Here, try this... Ice Silk Snow Lotus Cake, my favorite food when I was a child, only the masters in the palace can make it, so you can only eat it in this midsummer time."

Qin Baichu picked up the jade chopsticks, picked up a piece of cake that was crystal clear and had a faint cold air, and handed it to Zhou Dao. There was softness and expectation in his eyes, as if he was afraid that it would not be to Zhou Dao's taste.

She looked very much like a loving mother who had come back from a long journey in person and was making arrangements for her.

"It's delicious!" Zhou Dao nodded.

A cool breath only spreads to the forehead, leaving a fragrance on the lips and teeth that lingers for a long time. The sweet but not greasy taste blooms along the throat, refreshing the heart.

It has to be said that this is the first time for Daochang Zhou to have eaten at such a delicious bakery, which is far superior to the craftsmanship of Lao Wang's bun shop in Ping'an Town.

"If you like to eat, I will ask the palace to give it to you every day." Qin Baichu smiled.

Ice Silk Snow Lotus Cake is complicated to make, requiring hundreds of techniques, and the materials used are exquisite, as they are all century-old spiritual fruits.

Just this ice silk snow lotus cake can buy a yard in the capital.

"That's not necessary. I'm used to eating steamed buns. If I eat these every day, I'll be able to hold them in my mouth." Zhou Dao said with a smile.

He didn't want people from the palace to send things to him every day. It would be too ostentatious.

When Qin Baichu heard this, a trace of pity and discomfort flashed in his beautiful eyes.

"You have suffered a lot these years."

In the eyes of this eldest princess, eating steamed buns every day, is this still a human life?

Even the dogs in the palace won’t eat it!

"It's not bad." Zhou Dao quickly changed the subject: "Aunt Qin, I just have something to ask you for help."

"Um!?"

When Qin Baichu heard this, he couldn't help but smile, and there was a look of expectation in his beautiful eyes.

"You little guy actually asked me for help? Tell me, what's the matter?"

"I'm practicing a magical power recently, which requires special spiritual blood. The more special, the better."

"Special spiritual blood!?" Qin Baichu pondered for a moment.

"What magical power are you practicing? Do you need spiritual blood?"

The so-called spiritual blood condenses Taoism, plunders longevity, gathers the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit, and is tempered in the human body to be born.

This is the essence of all living beings, the great medicine of the mortal world, and the treasure of heaven and earth.

Ordinary strong people cannot extract spiritual blood at all.

Normally magical powers do not use spiritual blood.

"This..." Zhou Dao stopped talking.

Incarnation outside the body is one of the oldest magical powers in Taoism. The law is not passed down to the world and the skills are not rampant. It is a great secret in the world and cannot be lightly complained about.

Qin Baichu saw Zhou Dao's hesitation and stopped asking.

"The magical powers you have developed are extraordinary, and you actually need to use spiritual blood."

Qin Baichu's eyes narrowed slightly: "Little thing, you have now stepped into the Tao realm with one foot. I'm afraid ordinary spiritual blood will not be able to enter your eyes."

"How about I give you ten drops of the demon king's spiritual blood?"

"Seriously!?" Zhou Dao felt happy.

The demon king's spiritual blood is barely worthy of [corpseless flesh and blood] and [devil's root bone].

Ten drops of the demon king's spiritual blood should be enough.

"Qin Baichu, you, the majestic princess of the court, why are you so petty? Ten drops of the demon king's spiritual blood? How can you take it?"

At this moment, a burst of laughter came from downstairs, with a hint of joking.

"Um!?"

After hearing the words, Qin Baichu's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression immediately darkened.

She looked downstairs, and there seemed to be a sharp sparkle in her eyes.

Thump thump thump…

There was a sound of gentle footsteps, getting closer and closer.

Immediately afterwards, a graceful figure appeared at the entrance of the building. The person was dressed in white clothes and looked graceful as she swayed.

"Huh? Is it you?" Zhou Dao stood up suddenly, revealing a strange look.

The person who came was none other than Zhao Lingfeng, the holy aunt of the Seven Kills Sect who appeared at the Imperial Mausoleum of the Great Zhou Dynasty that day.

"A woman practicing swordsmanship!"

Qin Baichu gritted her silver teeth, and there was deep hostility in her beautiful eyes.

"Xiao Zhou Dao, we meet again." Zhao Lingfeng raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her eyes fell on Zhou Dao.

"Why didn't you call someone?"

"Forehead……"

Zhou Dao's face turned red and he secretly glanced at Qin Baichu next to him.

"Is she your mother?"

Zhao Lingfeng looked slightly coldly at the eldest princess next to her.

"So what if I am?"

Qin Baichu stepped forward and stood in front of Zhou Dao.

"Hahaha, Qin Baichu, you are so shameless... Do you think I don't know? This little guy just calls you aunt." Zhao Lingfeng laughed so hard that her branches trembled.

"You want to dominate his bloodline? It's simply a wishful thinking."

Zhao Lingfeng's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on her face became a little colder.

"What? Are you jealous? But he only recognizes me now." Qin Bai Chuyu stepped out and pulled Zhou Dao to his side, hugging him very affectionately.

"this……"

Zhao Lingfeng's eyes were condensed into a single line, revealing a cold and cold light.

"You still want to clear your name? It's your dream." Zhao Lingfeng shouted.

Naturally, she could see the sinister intentions of this. She tried to use Zhou Dao to correct her own status and become Zhou Xuan's only woman. At the same time, she also wanted to find out who had this kind of relationship with Zhou Xuan?

Have your spring and autumn dreams!

"I'm afraid you're not telling what's on your mind." Qin Baichu sneered.

"The thief shouts to catch the thief."

Zhao Lingfeng's complexion changed slightly, and she took a step forward. The powerful magic power wrapped around her fingertips, like a galloping sword, carrying the topsy-turvy momentum of the river and sea, and stabbed Qin Baichu's hand holding Zhou Dao.
