Qing Ling transformed his appearance and entered Zhangyao City.

There are many high-end shops, tea houses and wine shops, and vendors selling all kinds of goods in the market, just like in the past.

Because of the destruction of the country in Jiuqiu and the unification of the Eastern Continent by Chaoyan, in the past few decades, residents of the Protoss and Terrans have begun to move south to this former capital.

The goods sold in the shop stalls are no longer just for the customers of the demon race, many of them are exclusively for the people of the god race or the human race. The upper floors of the houses on both sides of the street have also begun to be inhabited or run businesses, and they are no longer vacant for a long time because the Jiuqiu people advocate low dwelling. The children running and playing in the neighborhood are holding small toys that the children of the demon clan like in their hands, but the stalls they enter are full of five-spirit coats used by the children of the god clan to practice.

Qing Ling's expression was stunned, and his eyes followed the running figure of a group of children and landed on a small stall on the side of the street.

The stall owner held a palm-sized seashell and shouted, "Look at it, it's going to change again!" ”

He closed the seashell and reopened it, and there were five or six small, brightly colored fish swimming back and forth in the shell, as if floating in the air. Open and close again, and the scenery in the shell changes to the churning waves.

The children watching were stunned, and then clapped their hands in unison, "Wow! It's so pretty! ”

The stall owner instigated at the right time: "If you like it, let your father and mother buy it for you!" It's only five cents a piece! ”

Qingling's footsteps froze, standing in place, out of the spirit for a moment.

She walked forward slowly and paid for a seashell for each of the children around her.

The children cheered, each holding their baby, constantly opening and closing the changing scenery, while chattering and competing.

A girl with two pigtails tugged at Qingling's skirt and made her look at the phantom in her shell as if she were offering a treasure, and explained by herself: "Look, these fish love these coral trees, because their home is in the tree!" At night, the baby fish must follow his father and mother back to his home to sleep. They are a family that loves each other......"

Qing Ling smiled and touched the girl's head kindly, but a wisp of bitterness spread in her throat, choking with a slight pain.

She left the market, turned into a narrower alley, walked to the door of a small courtyard, regained her true face, and knocked on the door.

After a while, a woman's coquettish voice came from within: "Come, come!" ”

The wooden door opened, and two people, one inside and one outside, raised their eyes and looked at each other, and there were thousands of emotions in their eyes.

Slender and skillfully glanced around the alley, stretched out his arm to pull Qing Ling into the courtyard, and slammed the door with his backhand.

"My aunt, how dare you show your true face while standing outside? Do you know that the people who are looking for you outside these days are about to rummage through the entire Chaoyan Kingdom! ”

Qing Ling heard her exaggerate, and finally couldn't help but smile faintly, "Is it that serious?" I came all the way down from Wutong Town, and I didn't encounter many officers and soldiers checking on me. ”

Xian Xian said: "The officers and soldiers are all characters on the surface, how many people are inquiring in secret, do you know you!" Needless to say, my own medical halls have long been stared at. Even the restaurant of my sister, whom I haven't been in contact with for hundreds of years, is constantly being watched. ”

After a pause, he remembered something again, stared at Qing Ling and asked, "You just said that you came from Wutong Town." But when you sent me the news, you clearly said that the person had been in Zhangyao, why did you run there again? ”

Qingling didn't rush to answer, and entered the room with Xian Xian, sat down opposite the case, and raised his eyes to look around.

Xian Xian was embarrassed first, "Don't look at it! My yard is a little broken, but fortunately, it's safe and inconspicuous! When your matter is settled, my sister will take you to see the mansion I bought in Liangxia City! ”

At the beginning, she opened a medical clinic in Lingxiao City, and because of Qingling's support, business slowly became more and more smooth. Later, because of the implementation of the new policy, demon residents moved in from all over the eastern continent one after another. Between the people of all classes, the original estrangement and fear gradually weakened, so that Xian Xian's business had the opportunity to further expand, and began to open branches in various places in the south.

Qing Ling smiled a little bitterly, "Wait for my matter to be resolved?" ”

I don't know when I will wait......

Xian Xian looked at Qing Ling's expression, and her tone became solemn, "What happened?" I've heard that you wounded Your Majesty and killed the patriarch of the Monan clan in Xianxia Pass...... What's going on here? ”

Qing Ling took the cup of tea handed over by Xian Xian, lowered his eyes and sipped lightly, and then slowly said what had happened over the years, just skipping the truth of his own life experience.

After listening to this, Xian Xian was silent for a long time.

At the end, he took Qing Ling's hand and said in a deep voice: "Why didn't you come to me earlier!" After the death of your son, you will not be able to afford to be sick...... Later, I wanted to find an opportunity to visit you in the palace, but I couldn't get the edict to enter the palace...... That old guy is also useless, and he knows how well you are doing in front of me, and how your emperor's brother values you and favors you...... Phew! I should have guessed that the guy had been in the palace for a long time, and he couldn't believe it at all! ”

She scolded in her mouth, but she was also embarrassed in her heart.

The first acquaintance with Qingling many years ago seems to be just yesterday.

At that time, the girl who was in love at the beginning was full of shyness, joy and embarrassment, how could she have predicted what would happen in the future?

So after scolding Gao Du, she began to scold Mu Chen again: "I saw the bad water in that kid's stomach early in the morning!" It's just that I didn't expect to be so shameless! You deserve to be beaten! Kill the best! ”

After scolding Mu Chen, he began to blame himself again: "I myself am also a big-hearted person, and I am used to being comfortable." Xu has lived in the world for more than 3,000 years, and has seen a lot of grievances and ups and downs, but he doesn't take anything to heart, and his mind is full of words, and there are only two words left. Yu Yu sighed, "I remember how good you and Shizi were to me in the past." Our demon clan has always paid attention to the distinction between grievances and grievances, and since you are in trouble today, I will never stand idly by! Whether you plan to deal with the people of Lieyang or Chaoyan Muchen, sister, I will help you! ”

Qing Ling's expression has always been very calm, allowing Xian Xian to hold his hand tightly and chatter.

Finally, he slowly spoke: "Actually, I'm not here to ask you for help. Or rather, I originally wanted to find you, I wanted to ask for something, but now I ...... I changed my mind. ”

Slender is confused, "......"

Qing Ling looked away and sat upright, staring at the void in the corner of the room. The perennial court life has made her actions and posture habitually change, coupled with the fact that she is now full of divine power, but she has faded away the steaming murderous aura, stretching her neck and showing her neck, showing her quality, her posture is quiet and elegant, and there is a unique royal family in the dignified and solemn.

"In the beginning, I really hated it in my heart,"

She slowly continued: "I want to kill all the people, even if the blood is flowing and the bones are buried for thousands of miles...... If I can't avenge my loved ones, my heart will never seem to be at peace.

I may not have told you that after the death of Jiuqiu, the monarch's seal passed down by the Luo clan was transferred to my hands.

I once thought that with the name of the Luo clan and that seal, I would rebuild Jiuqiu, gather the power of the demon clan, and then compete with Chaoyan. So I went to you to contact the courtiers and clans of the former Jiuqiu through your connections, and persuade them to help me restore the country......"

The seal that Luo Heng gave to Qing Ling before she died, she originally gave Ning Yan. Later, when Yuxiu was born, Ning Yan felt that her nephew was more qualified to keep this seal than herself, so she returned it to Qingling.

Hearing this, Xian Xian became excited, "The seal of the monarch is in your hand?" Then you are really qualified to order the old ministers and revive the nine hills! Moreover, your children are descendants of the Luo family, and now that you have cultivated well, they dare not disobey you! ”

The demon clan has always emphasized the division of high and low by strength, and for this reason, Luo Heng's influence in the Jiuqiu court in the past has always been far greater than Luo Xuan.

Qing Ling also knew in her heart that as long as she revealed her true identity, plus she held a seal, cultivated to be intimidating, and had some skills that she had learned from the court before, it was not impossible to persuade the old ministers to restart the power of Jiuqiu.

It was also because of this that after Su woke up in the Cold Star Moon Valley, she began to have this idea in her mind that was gradually taking shape.

"But why?"

Xian Xian asked again, "What did you just say...... Have you changed your mind again? ”

Qing Ling was silent for a moment, and said softly, "I went back to Wutong Town. ”

A hundred years ago, she and Luo Yao settled in this small town on the border, built a trade road connecting Chaoyan and Daze, and promoted the reform of the gate valve system and the process of peace talks between the two countries.

In those years, the area of Wutong Town was lively and prosperous, and within the surrounding dozens of miles, there were all kinds of shops and markets, inns and restaurants, and merchants from Chaoyan and Daze. Many ordinary villagers near the border in Jiuqiu also relocated to Chaoyan with their families, and opened up fields in the area north of Wutong Town to revive agricultural trade.

Even if Fang Shanlei and Mu Han started an incident and burned Wutong Town, destroying all the hard work of everyone, the memory of the time he had witnessed was always clearly engraved in Qingling's mind. The people's simple yearning and expectation for a better life, the ordinary and real life, laughter and scolding, firewood, rice, oil and salt, she has seen and experienced it herself.

In the first year of moving to Wutong Town, she and Luo Yao renovated the garden in Wutong Town, demolished the former building of the Fengyue business, rebuilt the flower hall and kitchen, and extended the water pavilion by the pool, making it look like their own home.

On summer nights, they sit by the water, in the cool breeze, leaning on each other and counting the stars.

In winter, they sit around the fireside, barbecue meat and drink wine, laughing and laughing.

Luo Yao loves to eat the dishes made by Qingling, and he also loves to cook for her by himself, he likes to tease her, annoy her, and will coax her at the right time and take the opportunity to kiss her.

To this day, as long as she closes her eyes, it seems that she can still feel the feeling of being pampered in the arms of that person.

Breath touch, smiling gaze, everything about him is so warm.
