Mu Ling saw that his ability was doubted by Meng Kun, and he immediately became dissatisfied: "Old boy, the master can only rely on me to break into the Buddha Palace. As for you, you are just helping me along the way."
"Who are you calling the boy?"
Meng Kun was furious. He was already an ancestor of the Yinsha clan. He couldn't remember how many years he had not been called that by someone. How dare this little girl dare to speak so openly?
If Mu Ling was not Zhong Zihao's person, I'm afraid Meng Kun wouldn't even bother to ask, and it would be normal to just take action.
"Of course it's you. Apart from you, the only one left here is my master. Obviously it's impossible for me to speak to my master like this." Mu Ling replied matter-of-factly.
"you……"
Meng Kun's complexion suddenly changed, and the wood spirit's arrogance made him lose control of his thousands of years of self-restraint.
"Senior, please calm down. If you really want to calculate based on age, Mu Ling seems to be right." Zhong Zihao's face darkened and he warned Mu Ling not to cause trouble with his eyes.
"How is that possible?"
Meng Kun was in disbelief for a moment. When Zhong Zihao revealed the identity of the wood spirit, he finally understood why the success or failure of this trip to the Buddha Temple rested on the wood spirit.
The wood spirit is almost immortal and can be naturally integrated into wood-attribute materials. As long as there are plants and trees in the Pagoda Palace, she can sneak in silently, which is indeed the key to this operation.
No wonder Zhong Zihao was so insistent after hearing the news about Fu's departure. He had to go to the Temple of the Buddha before giving up.
"In this case, it is indeed a rare opportunity. Although it is a bit risky, it is worth a try!" Finally, Meng Kun came to the conclusion.
Next, the three of them discussed for several hours, taking almost every detail into consideration, and only waited for the return of the Shangqing Emperor to confirm the news of the rebirth of the two pavilion masters before setting off.
…
Five days passed by, and Zhong Zihao waited more and more anxiously in the Shangqing Heavenly Palace. The Shangqing Heavenly Emperor did not appear, and even the news did not come.
On this day, Ye Lingfeng came to visit and made it clear that he wanted to see Zhong Zihan and that he wanted to ask for advice on some questions about the origin of life.
Zhong Zihao had a playful look in his eyes, why would a dignified emperor ask Zhong Zihan for advice if he couldn't find a guide? If nothing else, a few words of advice from the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty must be good advice, which is better than many discussions and groping.
However, he did not stop her. Ye Lingfeng had good conduct, and his sister had been alone for so many years. If they could achieve good things, as an elder brother, he would be happy to bless them.
Zhong Zihan was so smart that he couldn't understand the emperor's thoughts. He hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't bear to lose his face and agreed to discuss it with each other.
After the two left, Zi Ling said strangely: "Brother, is someone trying to take advantage of our sister Zihan?"
"What do you know, you little naughty guy?" Zhong Zihao patted the little girl's forehead.
"Huh, don't think I don't know!"
Zi Ling jumped away, but bumped into someone walking towards her and exclaimed: "Princess Peony?"
"The little lady came uninvited. I wonder if it will disturb Mr. Zhong?"
Ye Mudan changed into a pink dress today, her eyes were shining with scorching brightness, and her dark hair was naturally scattered, making people imagine the feeling of stroking those hairs with her fingertips.
"Princess Peony is joking. We came to Shangqing Tiangong to cause trouble for you, so why bother?"
Zhong Zihao quickly invited the princess in and served her tea in person, not forgetting to express his gratitude.
After the two sides exchanged a few words, he got straight to the point: "I wonder if the princess is here in person. What advice can you give me?"
"What are you talking about, Mr. Zhong? Do you have to have something to do to come?"
Ye Mudan giggled coquettishly, and her voice was like a bird whirling like a swallow, which actually made Zhong Zihao extremely embarrassed.
Even the entire Shangqing Tiangong belonged to someone else. As a guest, he really didn't know how to answer the question.
"The little lady came here because she was worried about me, the second emperor brother." Ye Mudan also noticed that something was wrong, so she quickly put away her jokes and went straight to the point.
"Did Brother Ye encounter any trouble?" Zhong Zihao asked with concern.
"It makes Brother Zhong laugh that it's all our family affairs."
Ye Mudan pondered slightly, and when Zhong Zihao nodded and listened, her lips parted slightly:
"My father has two sons and one daughter. The eldest brother is devoted to martial arts and has accompanied his father in his military expeditions all year round. As a daughter, I cannot worry about my father's worries. My only hope lies in the second brother. However, I
This second emperor brother seems to have no intention of taking over and taking charge of the Heavenly Palace."
"Why did the princess say this to me, an outsider?" Zhong Zihao asked.
"It sounds a bit abrupt, but I hope that Brother Zhong can help persuade the Second Emperor Brother when he has the opportunity." Ye Mudan's eyes were clear and there was no hint of joking.
"Princess, you think too highly of me. Even the Emperor of Heaven can't do anything about it. How can I make Brother Ye change his mind?" Zhong Zihao's words were sincere, and I think the other party should be able to understand.
In fact, he had another thought in his mind. Since Ye Lingfeng had no intention, why should Shangqing Tiangong make things difficult for others? Doesn't a dignified emperor even have the right to pursue his dream?
Another thing that made him suspicious was that now that the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was in his prime, why did he decide on the inheritance so early?
With the abilities of those who exist at the peak of the reincarnation realm, if there is no accident, even if they live for another hundred thousand years, there will be no problem.
"Brother Zhong may not know that being in the emperor's family is just a facade, but in fact there are times when you can't help yourself. Brother Zhong doesn't have many friends, and you are the one he recognizes."
Immediately afterwards, Ye Mudan told a lot of trivial matters, but Zhong Zihao felt inconvenient to evade it. Finally, he said: "I will try my best, but I can't guarantee that I can persuade Brother Ye?"
"As long as Brother Zhong is willing to help, no matter what the outcome is, the little girl will be grateful."
Ye Mudan finally had a smile on her face, just like the peonies blooming in late spring and early summer: "Actually, I know someone who can definitely persuade the second emperor brother. If she is willing to help, it shouldn't be a big problem."
"Who?" Zhong Zihao asked almost subconsciously.
At the same time, I was thinking, since there is such a strange person, why not just go to someone for help instead of discussing it with me for a long time?
"Ms. Lingmeihan!"
Ye Mudan smiled as brightly as a flower, and this answer was beyond Zhong Zihao's expectations.
"Can't Brother Zhong see that my second emperor brother's thoughts are all about your sister?"
Ye Mudan didn't care what the other party's reaction was, and said to herself: "According to my observation, after Duanhun Tianque and the others met for the first time, the second emperor brother has always been obsessed with Miss Zihan. Speaking of which, he has no intention of accepting his father's arrangement.
, also related to this matter..."
I don't know how much time passed, but Zhong Zihao sent Ye Mudan away in a daze, feeling that he was still in a dream.
Ye Lingfeng's sister found him and asked him to match up with her sister Zihan? This incident always felt a bit unreal.
Four days passed by in a flash, and finally the news came that the Emperor of Shangqing had returned to the palace.
