I don't know if it's an illusion.

Today's Wangshu Palace seems to be much brighter than in the past.

Gu Xiangzhu, a demon cult girl, after removing the "motherly mask", her appearance seems to have been faintly improved.

Probably...... Didn't unlock an emote outside of the mask before?

At least I hadn't seen her smile so naturally before.

"It's coming!"

Zhao Ci replied with a straight face.

Gu Xiangzhu looked at the cloth bag in his hand and smiled lightly: "Are the mushrooms fresh today?" ”

"Fresh!"

Zhao Ci's eyes were a little evasive, and he seemed to be a little afraid to look at her, so he quickly moved his toes to the door: "I'll do it for you." ”

The corners of Gu Xiangzhu's lips rose slightly: "It's so good, I thought you were just talking." ”

Zhao Ci's body stiffened slightly, stopped, and said inwardly: "I just don't want the fungus to spoil, in addition, I condense a product of flesh, which can be regarded as a favor owed to you, and after the favor is repaid, I won't come." ”

Gu Xiangzhu smiled and asked, "Then when will this favor be repaid?" ”

"I, I ......"

Zhao Ci gritted his teeth: "I don't know, it's natural to pay it back." ”

After that, he didn't give Gu Xiangzhu a chance to speak, and went directly to the kitchen.

Gu Xiangzhu looked at his somewhat embarrassed back, and a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes.

She admitted.

The young man in front of him was very smart and quite calm, otherwise it would be impossible to test himself out, and even pull between himself and Zhao Huan, and finally keep Dan Fangqiang in his hands.

But after all, he was a young man.

All actions are influenced by feelings.

It's the perfect time to get him back!

In fact, what Yueniang said yesterday was right, such a person is better to develop into his own subordinates.

Yesterday, she tossed and turned, and finally figured out that in fact, there are only three ways that Zhao Ci can take in the future.

The first way, cultivate well, stay in Linge and be harvested by Zhao Huan, it will be impossible to keep the kidney qi and kidney water god pattern, if the secret of the heavenly demon body is exposed, even the physical body god pattern may be plundered.

In this way, he can only live as a waste for the rest of his life, and Zhao Huan will still love him for Xiang Tiange's face.

I just don't know if Zhao Ci will feel that this love is valuable after knowing the truth.

The second way is to train Zhao Ci into a puppet as Yue Niang said, as long as he helps him reshape the Heavenly Demon Muscle and Heavenly Demon Bone, he will definitely be able to temper a super body that is no less than that of the Demon Lord and Xiang Tiange in the past.

With this kind of body as a puppet, his achievements may not be inferior to those of the Demon Lord back then, and the unification of the Demon Sect is just around the corner.

Coupled with the wealth he has accumulated over the years, he can even do things that the Demon Lord couldn't do back then.

It's just that......

Although she is the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect and has a unique talent for demonic skills, she is actually very repulsive to the kind of Gu poison that forcibly controls people's spirits.

It's savage.

Not elegant at all.

Attacking the heart is the real art.

Especially Zhao Ci...... Except for those Meng Lang's actions that can make her have murderous intentions, on the whole, the young man is still quite admired by her.

What's more, these Meng Lang's actions themselves were also a last resort to test whether he was his biological mother.

Of course.

She was sure that there could be no lust in it, but it was enough to dispel his malice.

And...... If he really becomes a puppet, I am afraid that it is difficult for anyone in this world to take the initiative to guess what he wants to eat like him.

As for him saying that it was part of the temptation......

It's!

So.

Gu Xiangzhu finally chose the third path, that is, to make Zhao Ci his own person who was loyal and could not give birth to the slightest rebellion.

This is the most difficult.

But it is the most in line with her heart.

It is also the most suitable practice for the current situation.

Because she can see that with Zhao Ci's current performance, she is quite dependent on herself subconsciously in her heart, and this dependence is likely to be related to the identity of "fake concubine".

She doesn't think it's glorious to use feelings, especially if they come from someone she's impostor.

But this was the only way she could quickly strip Zhao Ci out of Zhao Huan's control.

If you become your confidant, you will treat him well.

As long as he can't get rid of his dependence on himself mentally.

Such people.

It's a pity to be a waste.

It's even more a pity to be a puppet.

In the final analysis, it is still a hard life, and I voted for such a fetus.

It's just that she has some doubts in her heart, that is, will she put herself in it by doing this?

After all, people's hearts are the most unpredictable.

If there is an extra young man with a strong heart by her side out of thin air, it will really affect the efficiency of her career.

But if you think about it, it should be unlikely.

Zhao Ci is just a young man, and it is impossible to force himself to that step.

Just as she was torn in her thoughts.

Zhao Ci had already come over with a plate and put the food on the table.

As usual, it is stir-fried mushrooms, three plates of vegetarian dishes, and a bowl of white rice.

"Am I the only one who eats it?"

Gu Xiangzhu was a little puzzled.

"I've eaten ......"

Zhao Ci blurted out, and quickly changed his words: "I'm just repaying the favor, and the relationship between you and me has not yet reached the point where we can eat together." ”

Gu Xiangzhu stared at his eyes for a long time, and sighed softly: "It's okay, anyway, it's been so many years, and you can come over to eat alone." ”

This tone seems to hide that trace of sorrow and loss well.

Zhao Ci opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Gu Xiangzhu chewed slowly without hurry, and asked with a smile, "You ate lunch with your father, right?" ”

"Hmm!"

Zhao Ci replied sullenly, but he still didn't mean to sit down.

Gu Xiangzhu sighed lightly: "Are you still as comfortable as before?" ”

Zhao Ci was silent, and a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes.

"And what about after that?"

Gu Xiangzhu shook his head with some emotion: "It's just the first day you feel lonely, one day is okay, one month is still okay, and a year is okay, but ...... What about ten years? ”

Zhao Ci's eyes trembled, hesitated for a moment, and finally sat opposite Gu Xiangzhu.

I couldn't help but ask, "You...... Didn't have a good time in the palace too? ”

"It doesn't matter if it's good or not."

Gu Xiangzhu shook his head and smiled: "It's just that there are a group of people around who have never treated each other sincerely, and they do things they don't like at all." But little by little accumulation, after all, you can make your heart more steady. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ci fell into a long silence.

cautiously peeked at Gu Xiangzhu several times, and found that she was just eating with her head bowed slightly, and her eyes became bold.

In his eyes, there seemed to be a trace of distress and pity.

The atmosphere seemed a little oppressive.

"It's, in fact, ......"

Zhao Ci broke the embarrassment, and pretended to be hearty with a smile: "Actually, I don't have any hostility towards you, speaking of which, you have helped me a lot, although you have replaced the identity of my mother, but it is not your fault." Uh-huh...... It doesn't have to be so lonely. ”

"Huh?"

Gu Xiangzhu paused for a moment while eating, took a deep breath, and did not express his attitude towards his statement, so he returned to his calmness and calmness just now.

"What do you want to eat tomorrow?"

Zhao Ci pretended to ask casually, but he felt that it was not appropriate, and asked in a way that wanted to cover up: "I mean, return the favor as soon as possible." ”

Gu Xiangzhu smiled faintly: "It's okay, just do those that only you can make." ”

"Hmmm......"

Zhao Ci answered, and fell silent again.

Damn it!

This is a master.

But even if she has a little conscience, she just wants to tame me as a little milk dog, not as vicious as a puppet.

Although I'm a scumbag who plays with people's feelings, do you think you want to tame me with this? Unless you use the body......

Don't think about that yet.

For today's plan, it's better to take it slowly.

"That's right!"

Zhao Ci was suddenly a little worried: "I was in the imperial study just now, and I seem to have something wrong. ”

Gu Xiangzhu raised his eyebrows: "What's the situation?" ”

Zhao Ci frowned, told him about the situation in the imperial study just now, and asked worriedly: "This is the first time I have confronted my father, will it arouse suspicion?" ”

"Probably not!"

Gu Xiangzhu waved his hand: "Young man Lang Chongguan was angry, this is a normal thing, he won't doubt it." But...... After all, this move is still a bit risky.

If you want to use this to strengthen your reputation, the most rational way is to do what Zhao Yong said.

Put all the pills into the three northern counties, and the people of the three northern counties will remember you, but it is only limited to the three northern counties.

Stick to your own opinion today, thankless, and don't do it again in the future. ”

"The big husband has something to do and something not to do!"

Zhao Ci snorted: "I never thought of competing for the crown, and inviting the emperor to give Dan is nothing more than to benefit the people." What's more, I have already promised Kan Luotang, how can I easily break my promise? Moreover, my father was benevolent, and he originally intended to alleviate the difficulties of the three northern counties, so why couldn't I do this? ”

This young man is quite temperamental!

Gu Xiangzhu felt more and more that if he could conquer Zhao Ci, it would definitely be fun.

But when he said this, he still admired Zhao Huan from the bottom of his heart, after all, this Emperor Wuxian was a hero in the eyes of almost everyone in Dayu. She even felt that even if Zhao Huan really wanted to grub him in the waist one day, he would only feel sad in his heart, and would not resent Zhao Huan.

In a hurry.

She was a little annoyed: "I'm just thinking about you, what are you so excited about?" ”

Zhao Ci said: "I, I'm not angry with you!" ”

Gu Xiangzhu stood up: "That's it!" You are loyal, filial piety, and friendship, and you know very well what you should do, so why should I easily be a villain? ”

Zhao Ci: "I ......"

Gu Xiangzhu made a gesture of please: "The matter of the Danhui is related to your merits, and my financial resources, you should work together, I will not harm you." As for the favors you think you owe, pay them back as soon as possible. I still have something to deal with, don't send it! ”

Zhao Ci: "......"

He hesitated for a moment.

He could only walk away, but he stopped at the gate of the courtyard and glanced back with a loss, before turning his head and leaving Wangshu Palace.

Wait for him to go away.

Gu Xiangzhu leaned against the window and looked in the direction he left, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile.

This little young.

It's kind of fun.

……

On the carriage back to the Ten Kings' Mansion.

Zhao Ci scolded and scolded.

"Damn!"

"He's a master!"

"This repeated push and pull and moodiness are the same as the female sea king who took my blood in the previous life."

"Anyway, she's really perfect?"

No more to say!

We're pretending to each other!

He rubbed his face for a while, feeling that this bug was not particularly good.

But......

As long as he shows that he is being attacked step by step, he should be able to get a lot of benefits from her.

This kind of thing must be done slowly.

Don't rush it.

Especially to stay awake, otherwise you will really become a puppy, and you won't even have milk, and you will be pitifully ruthless.

Zhao Ci shook his head and went home directly.

Cultivate first.

After a few days, I will go to the three northern counties, and the law and order in that place are very chaotic, and you can't do it without force.

With Xiang Yun's speed, he should be able to get the wine refining vessel out at night, and he still has to work hard to assemble it.

When the time comes, you still have to ask Xiang Yun to engage in some trustworthy refining employees.

Otherwise, go to the cell and get some death row prisoners yourself.

In the Hundred Poisons Secret Codex, there are many strange poisons that can be configured, as long as the poisoning method is cumbersome enough, even if Gu Xiangzhu comes, he may not be able to crack it.

Which of the two methods is better or worse, he hasn't figured it out yet.

However, it is still no problem to use the Xiang family's top work, Xiang Yun is just against recruiting too many government officials to share meat, and does not exclude himself from making money, and even supports it.

As long as the treatment on his side is enough, he should not object.

It hurts to say.

is a huge Linge, and the only person he can fully trust is him.

Zhu Li can also be trusted, but this girl has a breath in her heart, this breath is given by Zhu Jiang, if Zhu Jiang asks her to go back to Zhu home one day, she is afraid it will be difficult for her to refuse.

At least only with the current friendship between the two, she will not refuse.

Comparatively.

Feng Kucha is more credible, but this brother is still in a state of not doing anything for the time being, and not enough to eat.

It is necessary to open a house.

Cultivating one's own power and condensing all government officials into a community of interests is the foundation of the foothold.

It's just that...... He looked at the list given by Kan Luotang, which recorded in detail the cultivation, preferences and even the difficulty of the strategy of those potential heroes, and I have to say that Kan Luotang really worked hard to make this list.

However, just looking at their cultivation, at most, it is the posture of their peers, if he is still a waste, he will definitely think that these people are good. But now that the strength has improved by leaps and bounds, I feel that this list is a little bit uninteresting.

At least until Zhao Ci is sure that he can't find a better one, he won't spend a lot of money to invite them to join.

Honestly, some headaches!

You'll have to get ready when you get home.

Dinner three days later.

You can't let it go.

High-end combat power can't be obtained, and civilian resources must be firmly grasped.

……

Before you know it, three days have passed.

In the past three days, Xingyu Danhui has been put back into production, and it is a warm atmosphere of working together for development from top to bottom.

On the other hand, Yonghe Danfang is gloomy and bleak.

They were stressed enough.

As a result, another large order of 1,000 Qi Cultivation Pills was pressed, and this 1,000 was net out.

Not to mention making money, I don't even dare to think about the cost price.

The cost of medicinal materials, furnace consumption, and labor costs all have to be paid by themselves.

It's the same as the wronged head of the special mother.

Although it is not that there is no salary, most of these are the young elites of the Feng Zhu family, and they must be complaining after suffering so much in vain.

"Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers!"

Zhu Yan reprimanded with a straight face: "In the past, when the mountains and rivers were broken, the ancestors of my Zhu family carried nearly half of the supply of pills in Dayu, and they didn't want to earn a penny, so they laid a brilliant foundation.

The government struggle is incomparably cruel, if it can be successful, you are all the elders of Yonghe Danfang, and when the prince ascends the throne, you are all heroes, and your status is far more than the same year when you huddled in the clan and enjoyed comfort.

With such a future, what can be achieved comfortably? ”

Hearing this, the young people present were all shocked.

Although there are still some emotions.

But gritted his teeth.

The flames in the palms of his hands re-branched.

Alchemy!

Fuck it!

Zhu Yan breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong showed an appreciative look at him, and then said in a low voice: "Tonight's Ten Princes' Mansion dinner, you go with me." ”

Zhu Yan was a little surprised: "Let's go too?" ”
