CHAPTER XVIII

In the National Teacher's Mansion, the snow has not melted in many places, with the white-clothed Taoist servants walking around the mansion, the scenery looks extremely wonderful, Su Liang wanders around aimlessly, Tan Ling walked with Su Liang, and saw that Su Liang was interested in the traces of three hundred years ago, so he explained, after all, the National Teacher's Mansion is well maintained, and it basically maintains the appearance of three hundred years ago.

Tan Ling talked about the grass, trees, houses and eaves of the National Teacher's Mansion, and often mixed some interesting stories when the Great Teacher was there, Su Liang listened very seriously, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really hard for you to be so attentive." ”

Tan Ling was a little proud when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Little girl Xu doesn't know, our ancestors of the Tan family have followed the great teacher since three hundred years ago when the Yin Kingdom was not built, the great master of the great country is immortal, benevolent and compassionate, and has tried to teach the ancestors the method of cultivating immortals, but unfortunately the ancestors are blessed and have not been practiced, but they have a lot of wisdom in the spiritual weapon, under the guidance of the great teacher, even if they can't control the spiritual power through the secret method, they can also build all kinds of spiritual weapons based on the spirit stone, which is why there is the later Tan family, the Tan family obeys the orders of the ancestors, and serves the national teacher's mansion for generations, Be careful. ”

"In this way, no wonder you are also surnamed Tan, and the one next to Liqing is also surnamed Tan." Su Liang nodded clearly.

Tan Ling looked around a little nervously, and reminded in a low voice: "I don't know what kind of friendship the little girl has with the little national teacher, but the current little national teacher doesn't like two things, one is to call him a national teacher without small characters, and the other is to call him by his name directly." ”

"Is that weird? Why? Su Liang was puzzled.

Tan Ling shook her head, "I don't know either, but I was told about it when I entered the mansion, and if I accidentally heard it, the little national teacher would be angry." ”

Su Liang looked behind Tan Ling, "The angry little national teacher came over." ”

Tan Ling was startled, and quickly turned around, only to see Liqing holding her arms and a cold smile on her face, looking at Su Liang, although her eyes were not on herself, Tan Ling still felt as if she was about to be frozen, and then leaned over stiffly and saluted, "Master Xiao Guoshi." ”

"What were you talking about?" Li Qing didn't look at Tan Ling, a pair of round eyes were half-narrowed and looked at Su Liang coldly.

"You're saying you don't like people calling you by your name."

"Oh? Now that you know, how do you do that? ”

Su Liang thought about it, and said with some hesitation: "According to the seniority, I really deserve to call you uncle, but ......" Su Liang looked at the petite figure in front of him that was not as tall as himself and the delicate face that was still a little baby fat, "It's really a little difficult to speak." ”

"Ryoko-chan, am I a little used to you? Well? Liqing's eyes were even colder, his small chin was raised high, and he looked domineering.

Su Liang turned his back and didn't want to see Liqing, otherwise he always had the illusion that he was bullying a young child, and said, "You try to get used to it, you see that I have never blamed you for calling me Xiao Liangzi." ”

Leaving the grinding teeth, he snorted coldly, and turned his head to explain to Tan Ling: "Wash and wash the puppy things raised by this dog, don't think that you can put a dust avoidance circle for yourself, find a suitable set of formal clothes, there will be a banquet in the palace tomorrow, you accompany me." ”

"Why should I go?" Su Liang turned around, a little reluctant.

Li Qing showed a cool smile, "Because I'm very weird." After speaking, he turned around and left, and Tan Yin behind him smiled harmlessly at Su Liang, and took advantage of the gap when he was not paying attention to it, and gave Su Liang a dry look.

Su Liang blinked, he loves to hold grudges so much, no wonder he keeps scolding his father's dog, this idea and words have to be reversed, it seems that it was indeed the same as what his father said at that time, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't beat it at the beginning, his father would have been cramped and pulled out of his bones by Liqing early, but although he loves to hold grudges, his temperament is excellent, after all, he is just the adopted daughter of his father, and he can be so good to himself, and he is just unforgiving when he thinks about it.

Tan Ling waited for a long time after leaving Qing to come to her senses, patted her chest, and said with some fear: "Little girl, aren't you afraid?" ”

"Afraid of what?" was so disturbed by Liqing, Su Liang had no interest in hanging out.

Tan Ling shook her head, "That's it, the little national teacher has a good relationship with you, but I am too talkative." ”

After speaking, he took Su Liang back to the guest room, instructed the other Taoist attendants to wait for Su Liang to bathe, and he secretly wrote down Su Liang's size and hurriedly went to find a suitable formal dress.

The feeling of being watched by a group of people bathing is really not very good, but they still look like they take it for granted, and finally Su Liang insisted on fixing all the Taoist attendants and moving them out of the door one by one, which is then cleaned, but the bath in the National Teacher's Mansion is different from the wooden barrel he used before, it is a large pool that occupies the entire room, and there are petals sprinkled by the Taoist attendants just now in the pool, which smells very similar to the smell on Liqing's body, thinking that this should have been for Liqing's exclusive use, Su Liang took off his clothes and slowly entered the water, When the slightly hot water did not reach his neck, Su Liang sighed comfortably, this national teacher's mansion is so luxurious, and I don't know how my father was willing to give up such a good place to go to Qingyun Mountain, which only has an earthen house.

When Su Liangbao was drowsy, an exclamation suddenly came from outside, and Tan Ling's voice came in, "What's going on?" Why are they all standing still in the doorway? What about the little girl? ”

"I'm in there." Su Liang replied in a loud voice, waved a little spiritual light and dispersed outside the house, and suddenly heard a few rapid breaths, "I don't like others to be on my side when I bathe." ”

"Yes, I'll put the clothes for you outside, if the little girl is good, call me, the formal clothes are complicated, and the girl is afraid that it will not be easy to wear alone."

Su Liang snorted, and then there was no sound outside the door.

Su Liang soaked his whole body in the water, thinking a little sullenly, he had just thought wrongly, although this national teacher's mansion is good, but it is very uncomfortable, and he is very comfortable with it, but according to his father's temperament, I am afraid that he does not like to be accompanied by people in and out like this.

When Su Liang appeared in front of Liqing in a gorgeous and complicated formal suit, Liqing looked up and down extremely critically, and finally snorted coldly, "Reluctantly, it's not a shame, let's go." ”

Su Liang found that the current Liqing was very different from before, he was even more petite in a formal uniform similar to himself, the long white hair that was originally scattered was tied up high, pulled into an extremely complicated appearance, and the heavy headdress on his head made Su Liang a little worried about whether the thin neck could hold on, a heavy veil was worn on his face, only revealing a pair of round eyes with no emotion, and the whole person looked hard and alienated, if it weren't for the disgusted tone that didn't change, Su Liang was a little suspicious that he was denying the wrong person.

Tong Liqing got into a pure white carriage, even the horses pulling the carriage were covered in snow white without a trace of variegation, Tan Yin drove the carriage towards the palace, and there were white-clothed Taoist attendants in front and behind to follow, Su Liang looked at it, and was stunned with a strange feeling.

"Do you really like it here?" Su Liang turned his head and asked.

Li Qing didn't answer, but his eyes were a little cold, "You look at the palace, the magnificent atmosphere, everyone wants to climb up, and the people who climb up want to hinder others from going up, even if it is brothers and sisters, parents and relatives, family affection, it is not worth mentioning in this royal city, not to mention the ethereal friendship." ”

"If you don't like it, just leave." Su Liang looked at the tall red palace wall of the royal city with Liqing's eyes, "No one here should be able to stop you." ”

"But I don't want to leave, I just want to see what the outcome of this city will be." Li Qing turned his head, showed a wicked smile, and looked at Su Liang, "I originally thought that it should gradually decay and degenerate, and finally disappear cleanly, but you see, it is becoming more and more brilliant and more luxurious, it is really amazing, I want to dismantle it." ”

Su Liang didn't speak again, and Li Qing raised his eyebrows, "What?" Scared by me? ”

Su Liang shook his head, "My father told me before, you are too obsessed, it is better to let go of it earlier, you see that my father has already let go." ”

"Down? And then die alone on a nameless hill without even a tombstone? Liqing snorted disdainfully, "Dog thing." ”

Su Liang thought about it, but didn't refute it, I was afraid that my father wouldn't let him erect a monument for him, and he would rather burn it clean, but in fact, he shouldn't have put it down.

"Xiao Liangzi, you have already been to the royal city, and you have also seen the National Teacher's Mansion, what are your plans in the future? Do you want to accompany me, a lonely old man? Xu is Su Liang's rare silence made the atmosphere in the carriage a little delicate, and he changed the topic from Qing.

Su Liang shook his head, "No, I'm going to go around and see the world." ”

Li Qing sneered, leaned back on the pillow disdainfully, "What's so good about this broken world." ”

"But I've been going all the way, and I think it's been very good." Su Liang looked at Liqing, "Even if there are some shortcomings, it is good after all." ”

Liqing avoided Su Liang's eyes, and snorted a little indistinctly, not knowing what it meant.

"Little national teacher, it's time to the palace gate." Outside the carriage, Tanyin called lightly, Liqing opened the curtain, and with the support of Tanyin, got out of the car, there were already many people queuing up in front of the palace gate to enter, Liqing threw his sleeves back, raised his chin and walked forward with a cold and arrogant face, Su Liang hurriedly followed.

"Little National Teacher."

"The little national teacher came early today."

"The little national teacher is fine."

The people around made a way one after another, and all the way through the ears were full of greetings, and they turned a deaf ear to Qing, and they didn't even look at it, they walked directly and entered the palace directly.

The rest of the Taoist servants of the National Teacher's Mansion stayed outside the palace gate and waited quietly.

When the figure of Liqing could no longer be seen clearly outside the palace gate, the surrounding people whispered and discussed.

"This year's little national teacher looks bigger."

"There is one more person behind the little national teacher today besides Tanyin, and I don't know who it is."

"I don't know how the Tan family did it, every small national teacher is very majestic, and the king is still too tolerant of the Tan family."

"Shhh, be quiet, those Taoist servants are still there, if it reaches the ears of the Tan family, I'm afraid it won't be good."

"Hmph, I'm a dignified official, will I be afraid of them?"

But having said that, the voice was lowered even lower, and the others stopped discussing it, turned to other topics, and entered the palace gate with a compliment and humility.
