Chapter 579 Zhao Linger, who wants to worship Li Xiao as a teacher
"By the way, do you know that early this morning, a thunder struck into the Alchemist's Mansion."
"Ah, how could such a thing happen?"
"According to legend, when some miraculous medicines are released, they will activate the divine thunder and fire in the sky. From this point of view, it is indeed true."
"I see."
There is no one in the world, from the princes and noble ministers to the common people at dawn, who does not want to live forever and shine with the sun and the moon.
The ministers below immediately started talking, and everyone's eyes were unanimously focused on the elixir in the Witch King's hand.
"My dear, this elixir of immortality really has the effect of making people immortal." The Witch King gently twisted the elixir in his hand and said with some disbelief.
Li Xiao's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but smile calmly and said: "How effective this elixir is, the Witch King only needs to try it once to know."
…
…
After the discussion was over, all the officials withdrew from the palace. However, after the Witch King accepted the audience of the officials and dealt with the official affairs for a day, he felt a little tired, so he left the main hall and returned to the palace.
"Is this elixir really that magical?" The Witch King looked at the elixir in his hand, and the look in his eyes became more intense.
After hesitating for a long time, the Witch King took the elixir orally. When the elixir entered his mouth, the Witch King only felt a warm current rushing to his limbs and bones, like a vitality factor.
The meridians are running happily, like floating in the clouds, feeling indescribably comfortable and carefree.
"This elixir of life is truly extraordinary."
When this extremely comfortable feeling swept through his whole body, the Witch King exhaled a long breath of turbid air, as if the depression that had been accumulated for a long time had left his body.
The current Witch King only feels that his body has become much lighter, and his pale face due to overwork also has a rosy luster, because some of the fatigue from going to court seems to have been swept away, and the whole
The whole body is full of vitality.
At this time, the Witch King couldn't help but let out a happy groan. Soon, he realized his gaffe. After looking around, he finally found that there was no one else in the corridor.
Relax.
After turning a few turns in the long and winding corridor, the Witch King arrived at the Princess's Mansion, where the princess lived.
…
…
Princess Mansion.
Zhao Ling'er held her cheeks in her hands and looked at the large locust tree with lush leaves outside the house through the window lattice, and she couldn't help but be secretly startled.
I don't know why, when I came back from the garden today, I couldn't get rid of the figure of that big brother in my mind, his sword-browed and starry-eyed appearance, his strong and elegant figure when he saved her, and his indifferent look.
Ruchen's temperament and the evil smile on his lips are all so unforgettable.
After thinking of the last words spoken by her eldest brother, Zhao Ling'er suddenly blushed and felt shy. She bit her lips lightly and murmured in a low voice: "Zhao Ling'er, what's going on in your head?"
What are you thinking about? Grandma said that men who talk sweet words cannot be trusted."
However, despite saying this, her heart was still throbbing inexplicably.
At this time, she heard the sound of footsteps at the door. She quickly looked up and said happily: "Father, you are back from the next court."
"Ling'er, what were you talking to yourself just now?" The Witch King stepped in from outside and said with a gentle smile. Above the court, he may be a majestic monarch, but in front of the children
, but the majesty on his face was gone, and it was full of love and affection.
Zhao Ling'er's face turned red and she shook her head quickly to cover up the panic in her heart: "No, I didn't say anything..."
As the monarch of a country, the Witch King is naturally good at observing words and expressions, so how could the strange look in his daughter's eyes escape his gaze?
…
…
However, the Witch King naturally did not expose Zhao Ling'er's little thoughts, but smiled fondly. Soon, he also noticed the scroll pressed under his daughter's lotus root arm.
"Ling'er, who is the person painted on this scroll?"
The Witch King raised his eyebrows slightly and said with curiosity. On the scroll, he saw a tall man in elegant white clothes. Through the childish brushstrokes, the outline of the character's face, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes could be vaguely seen.
He looks very heroic, but not pushy.
"Well...this is a big brother I met in the palace," Zhao Ling'er whispered.
For some reason, when the Witch King looked at the characters in the painting, he felt that they looked very familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who they were.
However, this did not prevent the Witch King from admiring Ling'er's painting skills. He touched Ling'er's little head affectionately, nodded in praise and said: "This painting is good. If you can put more effort into it,
, you can have both demeanor and attitude.”
After finishing speaking, the Witch King took another look at Ling'er, who was becoming more and more cute and charming, with a dazed expression: "In the blink of an eye, Ling'er has already reached the golden age. It is not suitable to stay in a claustrophobic boudoir in the palace. It is time to grow a little bit more."
With their skills and knowledge, women in the Central Plains pay attention to learning music, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, wine and tea from an early age."
Having said this, the Witch King's expression changed and he said: "Ling'er, how about I send the master from the palace to teach you knowledge?"
When Zhao Ling'er heard this, she couldn't help but stick out her tongue and said reluctantly: "Those tutors are very strict and like to keep a straight face. Ling'er doesn't like it..."
After thinking about it, the Witch King couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly. Indeed, most of the Taifus in the palace were old men in their sixties. Their teaching methods were also based on the textbooks, and they even followed the ancient times. He was taught by the Taifu when he was a child, so he felt
It's very profound.
"Who does Ling'er want to teach you?" the Witch King asked.
Zhao Ling'er thought for a while, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, she pointed at the scroll on the table with her slender finger, and said: "Ling'er wants him to teach knowledge."
"If my father's guess is correct, this person should be Li Fangshi." At this time, the Witch King also cast his eyes on the painting again. When he saw the characters in the painting for the first time, he just felt that they looked familiar.
, but this time he carefully observed the expressions of the characters in the painting, and after concentrating on identifying them, he immediately recognized that the character in the painting was the alchemist Li Xiao.
"It turns out that he is the famous alchemist Li Xiao." Zhao Ling'er's eyes flickered and she silently wrote down the name.
"Ling'er, don't be ridiculous. This Li Fangshi is a great hero of Nanzhao. He not only refines elixirs, cures diseases and saves people, but also takes the responsibility of controlling epidemic diseases in Nanzhao. He is burdened with heavy responsibilities, how can we add more to him?"
What's the trouble?" The Witch King's face darkened slightly, and he pretended to be scolding.
