Li Zhuo knew very well that with the title of master and apprentice, he would become the old monk's disciple. However, except for the senior brothers who returned to the west, all the living seniors above him were already old men. As a junior disciple, he must have the responsibility to shoulder the honor and disgrace of the sect.
Some people like to be powerful and aloof, while others like to be carefree and unrestrained. Li Zhuo belongs to the latter.
This time, for the sake of Xuan Bao, Li Zhuo agreed to the old monk's request and became a close disciple of the divine monk, which was equivalent to changing his life.
Xuan Bao's eyes were red and tears were welling up in his eyes, but the little baby held back the tears because his fifth uncle said, "Don't cry."
"It's okay, Xuan Bao." Li Zhuo touched the little baby's cheek, "Life is very long, and the future is unknown. It's quite interesting for my fifth uncle not to be a playboy, but to be a disciple of a divine monk."
"Fifth uncle, the old monk doesn't want you to become a monk, right?" Xuan Bao asked what she cared about most. If this happened, she would not be able to forgive her grandfather and grandmother.
Li Zhuo opened his eyes wide and said: "It's already difficult to be a lay disciple, but you want me to become a monk? No, no, please serve good wine and good meat. The vegetarian meal in Tianlong Temple will make the glutton in my stomach rebel.
."
"Dongxue, Xiayu, hurry up and get some delicious food."
Xuan Bao smiled, and two crystal tears fell with her smile. Li Zhuo stretched out his fingers and wiped them gently from left to right, wiping away the little baby's tears.
This time the four maids started working together, and soon the table was filled. Li Zhuo ate as if he had been hungry for eight hundred years, but at the same time he also took care of the little baby.
Like the wind and lingering clouds, a moment later the dishes on the table were all empty, and Xuan Bao motioned to the maids to clear them away.
"Fifth uncle, when did the old monk see me?"
"You have a good rest tonight. I will pick you up to see the old monk tomorrow." Li Zhuo slowly stood up with a look of reluctance on his face, "It's time for me to go back to the palace and show my face in front of your grandfather and grandmother."
Xuan Bao joked: "Fifth uncle has been missing for several days this time. I think grandpa may have planned to break your legs."
"You heartless little kid, it's better to keep my legs. At least I can help you run some errands." Li Zhuo responded with a smile.
Seeing Li Zhuo cross the threshold, Xuan Bao stopped him: "Fifth uncle, I think it's better to tell my grandfather that you are a closed disciple of the old monk."
Li Zhuo paused for a moment. He didn't answer or turn around. He just waved his hand and left.
"County Lord, my fifth uncle seems to be feeling a little different." Dong Xue said in a low voice.
"It's all because of me." Xuan Bao finally stopped hiding his guilt.
Xia Yu had a different view: "County Lord, maybe in a few years, my fifth uncle will thank you."
Xuan Bao thought about it and said lightly: "Maybe."
After sleeping and eating, Xuan Bao sat down and propped one hand on the armrest of the chair, thinking deeply.
The characteristics of people who have been affected by the puppet spell are that their eyes are dull and there is a small black dot in the white of the eye. Only those who know Xuanmen magic can find it when they get closer. Xuanbao can judge based on this.
After much thought, Xuan Bao still felt that the eldest brother Xiao Kezhong and Xiao Mingzhu were the most suspicious, because there were not many people who could make the fifth brother Xiao Keli obey and protect him, and their presence was already a big problem.
Looking out the window, it was already night. I wonder how the second brother's investigation was going? Xuanbao was 80% sure. If Xiao Kexiao ruled out that one of her own people leaked the news, then she would be completely sure.
"Xia Yu, go to the courtyard gate and see if your second brother or Awang has come." Xuan Bao ordered.
Dong Xue signaled Xia Yu not to ask any further questions, but when she saw that she was ordered to walk towards the courtyard door, she turned back and entered.
"County Master, are you going to be busy again tonight?" Dongxue touched Xuanbao's cheek distressedly, "You have lost weight recently."
"I have grown taller." Xuan Bao diverted Dong Xue's attention and simply stood on the chair, "Take a closer look and see if I am much taller. It won't be long before I can be as tall as Brother Shun."
Dongxue exposed Xuan Bao: "The Second Highness is now half a head taller than you. If you want to be as tall as him, you need to eat more, sleep more and worry less."
"It's okay to eat more. I'll strive for more sleep. As for worrying less, I don't want to worry about it."
Seeing Xuan Bao pretending to be mature, Dong Xue burst into laughter, but there was uncontrollable distress in her eyes.
At this time, Chunhua came in with Xiao Keren: "County Master, the third young master is here. Xia Yu asked me to tell you that she is waiting outside."
"Isn't the second brother here yet?" Xiao Keren sat down by himself familiarly.
Nowadays, there is no need to pay attention to those false etiquettes for the second brother and the third brother Xuan Bao: "Did the third brother come here to beat my mother?"
"Yes, I haven't had a meal with my mother for a long time. I had to sit for a while after the meal. I left with Mingzhu."
"It's rare that you can accompany my mother for most of the day."
"We talked a lot, and even talked a lot about each other's innermost feelings. I felt that I had a lot of misunderstandings about my mother in the past. After this heart-to-heart talk, mother and son seemed to have become much closer."
"Yes, the more we get along with each other and the more we talk, the more we can understand each other."
"By the way, luckily we were more careful. Xiao Mingzhu went to Qinse Courtyard and left after seeing me there. After dinner, she went again. It was clear that she would not give up until she achieved her goal."
"Why is she so cruel? She spends all her time just to make her mother worry."
Xiao Keren saw that Xuan Bao was angry and said quickly, "Don't worry, the result is very unexpected."
"What's the result? Even if you can stop today, you can't stop tomorrow. Why don't you still stay with your mother every day?"
"I originally told my mother that Xiao Si was ill, but Xiao Mingzhu rushed to tell me that he had encountered something dirty."
After saying this, Xiao Keren couldn't help but laugh: "Guess what mother's reaction was?"
"Oh? What was your mother's reaction?" Xuan Bao followed Xiao Keren's words and asked in agreement.
Xiao Keren imitated his mother, Princess Rouping, in a shrill voice: "Xiao Si is sick, and I thought about asking the imperial doctor to come over and take a look. It would be easier if we really encounter something dirty. Keren, go find Xuan Bao quickly.
Just tell her."
Xuan Bao was stunned, and when she came back to her senses and met Xiao Keren's teasing eyes, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. It was amazing, it was amazing, it turned out that she was so powerful in her mother's eyes.
"You don't know, Mingzhu was stunned when she heard her mother's words."
After Xiao Keren finished speaking, he continued to imitate Princess Rouping with a proud tone, "There is nothing our Xuanbao can't handle, Keren, if she tells you to do it, just do it, and tell her what she needs. Just tell Aunt Ying."
After finally stopping his laughter, Xuan Bao said, "I can imagine how ugly Xiao Mingzhu looked at that time."
