Since ancient times, joy has been short-lived, and when people feel happy, time always passes easily.

Unknowingly, I stayed in the Duke of Huai's mansion for another half a decade.

It's really a comfortable time.

While immersing yourself in practice, every bit of confusion can be perfectly answered.

After practicing, he and Zuo Guangshu felt the prosperity of Chudu and appreciated the beauty accumulated by thousands of years of history.

There is nothing to worry about and no trouble to happen except to hide away for a while.

When he was in Yun Kingdom, he still needed to hide his identity and get along with An An.

In the Chu State, he can be arrogant and domineering if he wants.

For dinner on this day, the old man came back to his hometown to eat as usual.

During the time Jiang Wang lived in the mansion, he came back every day for dinner.

Sitting with them are Princess Yuyun of Da Chu, Zuo Guangshu and Jiang Wang.

When practitioners reach this state, they no longer need to eat. Usually banquets are just to satisfy the appetite and find a suitable environment for communication.

But the banquet in the Huaiguo Duke's mansion is naturally different.

Although it is impossible to compare with the craftsmanship of Yu Guogong at Huangliangtai, it is still a delicacy, and they are all rare materials and elixirs, which are beneficial to spiritual practice.

"Grandpa personally asked someone to prepare the raw materials for this soy cloud dumpling. Brother Jiang, please try it!"

Zuo Guangshu used a slotted spoon to scoop out a milky-white dumpling from the golden chicken wings pot and put it into Jiang Wang's bowl.

Then he obediently scooped one for his mother and grandpa: "Mom, grandpa, you guys eat too."

Suiyun dumpling is a very famous snack in Chu region. It has different flavors according to the different ingredients. It has a wide variety and a unique taste. It has the reputation of "eighteen kinds of secret secrets, different clouds thousands of miles away", and is very popular among Chu people.

It is originally cooked food, but it tastes better when eaten after it is boiled.

The soup boiled in the chicken wings pot is also specially prepared for scalding food.

Jiang Wang took a bite of the soft glutinous cloud and swallowed it into his belly. He felt his blood was hot, his energy was like clouds, and his whole body felt comfortable.

He knew in his heart that this was a specially prepared meal based on his cultivation progress.

Although I don’t know what raw materials are used, but Duke Huai has personally checked it, I think it’s extraordinary...

And the warm feeling in my heart at this moment is more unforgettable than the physical benefits.

"It's very delicious!" Jiang Wang praised sincerely.

The old man was sitting at the top, looking like a majestic elder. He chewed slowly and didn't speak a word, but now there was a faint smile on his lips.

"By the way, mother, the matter of the Golden Feather Impatiens has been resolved. We will not be shortchanged in the future." Zuo Guangshu didn't have any rules about not eating what he said. He was eating, talking, and rushing.

Jiang Wang raised his chin: "Brother Jiang helped me do it."

Xiong Jingyu was scooping up a bowl of soup at this time and gently pushed it in front of Jiang Wang. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "We, Xiao Wang, are very proud in Qi State."

Jiang Wang took the jade bowl and said modestly: "No, no, the matter is not difficult to handle, it's just a matter of a few words."

If Chong Xuan Pang, who is far away in Qi State, hears him say this here, he is afraid that his dividend for this year will be deducted as a negative amount.

How could it not be difficult to deal with a rare flower like the Golden Feather Impatiens, which has a very low yield and has no worries about marketability, and can even be sold to people from the state of Chu?

In Qi, this is the Bao family's business.

Chong Xuan Sheng also spent a lot of effort and bought it at twice the premium.

If it were Jiang Wang who went alone, let alone a few words, he would not be able to find the door even if his words were worn out.

It is worth mentioning that.

Within the Bao family, the business of the Golden Feather Impatiens flower was formerly in charge of Bao Zhongqing, but was later taken over by Bao Bozhao.

This incident itself is not surprising. The battle for Bao's successor has become clear, and Bao Bozhao has taken over more than one industry.

There may be Bao Zhongqing's share in the future, but at that time it was already assigned to him by Bao Bozhao, and the meaning is no longer the same.

only……

Taking advantage of the rarity of the Golden Feather Impatiens flower, they arbitrarily raised prices for customers like the Zuo family of Da Chu. And then with the heavy profits from Chong Xuan Sheng, he easily changed hands on this business...

Judging from Jiang Wang's limited contact, Bao Bozhao should not be such a short-sighted person.

But Bob Zhao may also have other considerations.

In short, it is not Jiang's turn to take care of Bao's internal affairs.

He was already very satisfied if he could help Guangshu's family solve a small problem.

The bright yellow jade lamps hanging on the wall filled the dining room with warm light.

Several people were eating and talking, laughing from time to time.

Jiang Wang had never seen such a scene in his memory.

His mother passed away when he was very young, and he was never very close to his stepmother, Aunt Song.

Later, when he was in Linzi, Mrs. Li treated him very kindly, and Feng Yao and Long Chuan were also very good friends. However, in the Chengcheng Hou Mansion, after all, there were still some restraints that he could not let go of.

The so-called "home" feeling that had been vague for a long time was strange. I felt it in a place I had never imagined before.

But as Jiang Wang ate, drank, and laughed, he understood that it was time to leave.

He understood that he had only temporarily replaced a person, a temporary replacement, a kind of support that had no support.

The mark of the Moon Key on the palm of my hand is usually not visible.

When he was in the Huaiguo Duke's mansion, he kept letting it appear.

In that possibility that no longer exists, he hopes that the person who is as bright as the sun can feel how many people still love him...

He understood that he was not Zuo Guanglie.

He could have brotherly feelings for Zuo Guangshu, and he could get along with the Zuo family with sincerity, but he could not accept that attachment with peace of mind.

The time spent in the Duke Huai Palace of Chu was really wonderful.

Zuo Guangshu regarded her as an elder brother, Princess Yuyun treated her like a nephew, and Duke Huai was also very kind and considerate.

Staying here feels like home.

But here...

It's not your own home.

I have no home.

The lighting is soft, gossips are common. Whose children are there, vegetables, rice and hot soup.

In this indescribable warmth.

at this moment.

Jiang Wang misses Jiang Anan very much.

My heart is at peace, my heart is at peace.

…

…

"I'm leaving." After completing the practice in the Heavenly Star Vault Holy Tower, Jiang Wang said to Zuo Guangshu.

Zuo Guangshu, who was meditating to regain his composure, paused, opened his eyes and said, "I'll see you off."

There is no need to hold back, and there is no need to hold back.

Growth is made up of countless farewells.

"Take me to inform the eldest princess and Lao Guo that we are separate." Jiang Wang said.

Zuo Guangshu stood up silently and led the way.

Princess Yuyun of Da Chu talked a lot about things she didn't have, such as eating well, wearing warm clothes, and taking care of herself. Finally, she stuffed a storage box into it and went back to look at the ants.

Duke Huai of Chu was sitting in his study, lowering his head to write, and only said one sentence

"If you are not happy in Qi, you are welcome to return to Chu. My house... is very empty."

Jiang Wang didn't know what to say other than saying goodbye, taking care, and okay.

So he turned around and left.

The "make-up lessons" during this period were of profound significance to him.

A duke, and the leader of a thousand-year-old family like the Zuo family of Chu, has a profound background that is immeasurable.

Any shortcomings of Jiang Wang could not be hidden from the eyes of the old man. A little advice was enough to clear up the clouds and reveal the sun.

People like Dou Zhaozhong and Xuan Zun already know every step of the perfect construction of the outer building before they even enter the outer building.

It was only during this period that Jiang Wang had made up the foundation.

Even the Misfortune Seal and Bi Fang Seal, which were taught in the mountains and seas, have been mastered and mastered under the guidance of the old man... In terms of cultivation, they can be regarded as a complete stage.

…

"Send it here! As for Shunhua, please tell me."
