The man's facial features are very ordinary, the kind that will be completely submerged if thrown into the crowd, the face is a little pale, it seems that he rarely basks the sun, his eyes are a little small, and his head likes to be slightly lowered.

"This is Miao Sheng, Miao Guard, one of the secret guards around the emperor, a ninth-layer Yuanshi, he will protect you in the dark in the future." Qin Guifei said to Shui Tianlan.

Shui Tianlan frowned slightly and said, "Mother, I don't need it." She didn't like the feeling of being followed, it felt like she was being watched, "You need protection more than I do." ”

"Lan'er, the emperor has already sent two people to protect me secretly, don't postpone it, otherwise the mother concubine will be frightened." Qin Guifei's eyes showed a look of pleading.

Shui Tianlan knew that it would only be unpleasant to talk about it, so he glanced at Miao Guard and said, "Okay, he stays." Qin Guifei smiled with satisfaction, reached out and touched Shui Tianlan's head and said gently, "Lan'er, you have changed a lot since that beating, the mother concubine knows that you want to be strong, but you must not wronged yourself, don't be too tired in cultivation, your body is important." ”

"Mother, I understand, don't worry, tomorrow I will go to the national teacher to learn alchemy, it won't be hard." Shui Tianlan saw the distressed look in her mother's eyes, and her heart felt warm.

Early the next morning, Shui Tianlan came to the National Teacher's Hall alone, and there was a little boy about five years old wearing a dark blue silk dark flower robe who saw her and immediately smiled and asked, "Sister is Princess Tianlan?" ”

Shui Tianlan saw that the little boy was handsome and cute, with big black eyes that were black and white, and a sweet mouth, so he immediately nodded and squatted down to be level with him and smiled: "Yes, what's the name of the little brother?" Do you live in the National Teacher's Hall? ”

"My name is Xiao Weiyi, I am five years old this year, I was picked up by my grandfather, and now I am the housekeeper of the National Teacher's Palace, grandpa asked me to wait for you to come, come in quickly, it's boring here, and if I have more sisters in the future, I won't be so boring." Xiao Weiyi took Shui Tianlan's hand and walked into the National Teacher's Palace, Shui Tianlan found out that this little guy was actually a first-layer Yuanshi Great Perfection, which made her cry and laugh, if she didn't break through yesterday, wouldn't she have the same strength as him? Thinking that this little guy was only five years old, the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching a few times, general cultivation starts at the age of seven, obviously this little guy has met a nobleman.

Xiao Weiyi's hands are small, fleshy, and fat, Shui Tianlan can't help but soften when he holds the little hand, thinking that he is an orphan like himself, and his love for him is even greater.

"Sister Tianlan, grandpa said that if you come, you will read these books first, and it will be enough to read for two hours today, and then go out of the palace to buy all the medicinal materials on this list." Xiao Weiyi's eyes rolled as she spoke.

Shui Tianlan was stunned for a moment and immediately nodded in understanding: "Okay, I'll start reading now, but I just can't play with Xiao Weiyi." ”

"It doesn't matter, I can meditate when my sister reads, but when I leave the palace, can you take me out, I will definitely be very well-behaved." Xiao Weiyi suddenly showed a pitiful look.

Shui Tianlan is a little embarrassed, his strength is not strong, if he goes out and has something, it will be fatal.

"Xiao Weiyi, it would be bad if the two of us went out and met bad people, my sister's strength is not high, she may not be able to protect you, wait for a few years when my sister is powerful, will I take you out to play?" Shui Tianlan coaxed him.

"Sister, you don't have to worry about me, I have this, no one dares to bully me, I can still protect my sister!" Xiao Weiyi pulled out a palm-sized, glittering golden token from him.
