Shangguan Xilin closed his eyes in pain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although today's ending was not caused by his own hands, if it weren't for his usual dedication to cultivation, not asking about mundane matters, lack of communication with his wife, and neglect to discipline his son, they would not dare to take advantage of his retreat to do such things, and their Shangguan family and Duanmu family would definitely not have come to this point.

Only he knew what he had been tormented by guilt and regret for more than three months, and he had even begun to doubt whether his dedication to cultivating immortals was right or wrong.

Ji Rong, who was nestled in Duanmu Zixuan's arms and watched coldly, saw his expression, and immediately guessed that her cheap grandfather must have had a demon because of this matter. A flash of sympathy flashed in her eyes - immortal cultivators have always valued cause and effect, and if his guilt and remorse cannot be eliminated in time, then it will inevitably soon become a major obstacle on his way to heaven.

"Uncle?" Seeing that his eyes were slightly closed and he was silent for a long time, Duanmu Zixuan had no choice but to call him.

Shangguan Xilin woke up from his thoughts at this time, and his heart warmed at Mu Zixuan's worried eyes, "Uncle is fine." Yes...... Let my uncle hug him?"

Duanmu Zixuan nodded with a smile, "Of course." ”

Shangguan Xilin was overjoyed, but Ji Rong was a little reluctant - although this person was her cheap grandfather, he was also a strange old man to her, so she didn't want to hug him.

However, for the sake of this person's clear distinction between right and wrong and his conscience, she did not protest to Duanmu Zixuan.

Fortunately, Shangguan Xilin only hugged her for a while before returning her to Duanmu Zixuan.

After that, Shangguan Xilin hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a longevity lock carved from mutton fat white jade that he specially bought, "This is what I prepared for Jinghong, you ......"

Duanmu Zixuan handed Ji Rong to Jiwu to hold, and he respectfully took the brocade box with the longevity lock with both hands, "I'll help Jinghong put it on." ”

Shangguan Xilin was both relieved and ashamed, and after watching the longevity lock being put on Ji Rong's neck, he stood up with the sourness in his heart, "Thank you, Zixuan." You are a good boy, it is Jingyu who is not blessed. In the future, if you need your uncle to do it for you, use this jade talisman to send a message to your uncle. ”

With a slight movement of his right hand, a communication jade talisman flew in front of Duanmu Zixuan.

Seeing Duanmu Zixuan put it away, he was a little relieved, "Then the uncle will leave." You...... Take good care of Jinghong. ”

Duanmu Zixuan nodded, "Uncle, don't worry, Zixuan will." ”

Shangguan Xilin took a deep look at Duanmu Zixuan and the little baby she was holding in her arms, and then turned around and walked outside the main hall.

Looking at his back, which was much older than before, Duanmu Zixuan suddenly spoke, "Uncle, as long as you are still the lord of Tuzhou one day, Qinzhou will be the same as Tuzhou." ”

Shangguan Xilin's footsteps paused slightly, and then he walked out again.

Duanmu Zixuan's gaze swept over the attendant who was quietly standing outside the main hall, and the attendant immediately stepped forward and led Shangguan Xilin to the main gate of the Lord's Mansion.

It wasn't until he walked out of the lord's mansion that Shangguan Xilin let out a long sigh. It seems that it is time for him to make a change. Hopefully, it's still too late.

In the lord's mansion, after watching Shangguan Xilin leave, Duanmu Zixuan stood quietly in place for a long time with Ji Rong in his arms, and then returned to the back house with Jiwu.

Motionless was held by her, Ji Rong only felt that her bones were about to stiffen, but because she knew that Duanmu Zixuan was in a complicated mood, she was rarely quiet and well-behaved.

Three days later, while Duanmu Zixuan was not paying attention, Ji Rong quietly slipped out of the lord's mansion. Today is the day she made an appointment with Yu Ling and Yun Qi, and she is going to pick them up and enter the mansion. Of course, she left a note in Duanmu Zixuan's room explaining where she went.

However, as soon as she left the Lord's Mansion, she was worried - the last time they met, she forgot to ask where they both lived.

Standing on the crowded street, she frowned in annoyance.

A middle-aged woman who happened to pass by looked at her and said to her companion, "Whose child is this?

"Where would such an older child go? I think nine times out of ten they were left here by the servants. The tall, thin middle-aged woman next to her said as she looked around, "I don't know where the servant woman has gone." Poor thing, how can such a young child be separated from people!"

Ji Rong secretly said that it was not good, she was a baby now, and if she did something out of the ordinary, it would cause a riot. So, how can she get out of it without being so shocking?

"Shall we send this child to the Lord's Mansion?" said the middle-aged woman who had noticed her first to her companion, "Madame Tai will help her find her family." ”

The tall and thin middle-aged woman immediately nodded in agreement, "That's what you said." ”

She handed the basket she was carrying to her companion and was about to come forward to hug hime.

However, just as her hand was about to touch the shock, a figure suddenly rushed from behind her right, "Master!"

Ji Rong breathed a sigh of relief - it was finally here.

The two middle-aged women were startled, and when they looked closely, they saw a girl who looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old standing next to the baby just now.

"Master, Yu Ling is late, ...... you" Yu Ling looked at the two middle-aged women with a defensive expression, obviously misunderstanding their intentions.

Ji Rong first raised her hand and motioned for her to pick herself up, and then sent a message to her: "I'm fine." They just want to send me back to the Lord's Palace. ”

Only then did Yu Ling breathe a sigh of relief, "That Yu Ling will send you back now." ”

Ji Rong said again: "Give each of them five taels of silver." ”

As soon as Yu Lingxian flipped her hand, two silver ingots appeared in her palm, "This is what my master gave to you two." ”

With that, her wrist moved slightly, and the two silver ingots flew in front of the two middle-aged women respectively.

"Let's go. Ji Rong hugged Yu Ling's neck with satisfaction, "Let's go back to the Lord's Mansion." ”

"Yes. Yu Ling agreed, and together with Yun Qi, who had been waiting at the mouth of the alley for a long time, he took Ji Rong to the back door of the lord's mansion.

The two middle-aged women were stunned for a moment, then they looked at each other, and then reached out in surprise and joy to take the silver ingots hovering in front of them.

A moment later, the three of them came to the door of the back door of the Lord's Mansion. After knocking on the door under Ji Rong's instructions, Yun Qifu quietly retreated behind her and Yu Ling.

The one who opened the door was an old servant who was over half a hundred years old, and when he saw the doll trio outside the door, he couldn't help but be stunned, "You ......"

Yu Ling took a step forward, "Uncle, please pass on the master here, just say that we are here to return the eldest lady of the Duanmu family, Lord Duanmu Jinghong." ”
