Chapter 226: The Cook's Babysitter
Five months later, Lingbi City, the City Lord's Mansion.
Tao Zi was dressed in a local soft mist brocade robe, still dressed as a middle-aged woman. She extinguished the fire in the stove, lifted the lid of the pot, and brought out the rice soup that had been simmering in the pot for more than a quarter of an hour.
She is now a full-time cook and nanny for the Grand Duke of the City Lord's Mansion.
And the city lord was the man in the dark clothes that day, and at the same time, the only time she wanted to steal should be in this mansion. The former was known to her after she was brought back to the City Lord's Mansion, but the latter was only known after seeing the eldest prince in the mansion, because this eldest prince was the child who stood with the middle-aged man she was about to steal on that island before.
Tao Zi thought that the middle-aged man should be an elder or a senior guard enshrined in this mansion.
On that day, the city lord brought Tao Zi back to the mansion and talked with Tao Zi for a day and a night. After that, Tao Zi lived in the city lord's mansion, and she promised to answer the doubts of the Chenhua realm for the city lord at any time, except for the fundamental secrets of the Chenhua realm, the inheritance and Xinmi of the sect and her own **, the others would have no reservations, and in return, the city lord also promised to help her find a way back to the Chenhua realm.
Tao Zi didn't know why the city lord was proficient in the language of the Chenhua Realm, and he was so eager to understand the Chenhua Realm. But this deal is not a loss to the newcomer, that is, the city lord has the intention of keeping himself by his side to watch, and Tao Zi doesn't mind much.
This is not the Chenhua Realm, and she is not a personal disciple of the Great Sect, in that situation five months ago, she couldn't escape at all, and now it is very rare to get a promise from the city lord.
As for the rest, I can only survive first, and then slowly figure it out.
And Tao Zi had already understood why those two people dressed as officials had to catch themselves on the street that day. Because she was carrying a strange backpack at that time, observing the shops on the street suspiciously, and she couldn't answer questions such as household registration at all, they naturally had reason to suspect that Tao Zi was a spy sent by Langgu City.
This interface is called the cloud boundary, there is a lot of water in the boundary, in addition to the large and small islands, there are barely three pieces of land that can be called continents, naturally, these three continents have become the object of competition between various forces, and Lianbi City is located on the southernmost Wozchi continent of these three continents.
The five cities on the Wozi continent stand side by side, and the five cities cooperate with each other and check and balance each other. In this case, Lianbi City and the other three cities can coexist well, but it is only incompatible with Langgu City. It is rumored that the grievances and entanglements between the two cities can be pushed back three thousand years, and now, the two cities, which are originally incompatible and adjacent, are fighting for the few floating islands that have just appeared.
For Tao Zi, who was mistaken for a spy, naturally the whole city was not too vigilant.
Tao Zi walked to the door of the eldest prince of Fuzhong with the right temperature Lin Yiling rice soup, and the little maid at the door respectfully saluted Tao Zi, and then intimately helped her open the door.
In the entire Cloud Realm, there is no distinction between the secular realm and the cultivation realm, and on the Woqi Continent, the city is the highest ruling unit, and the five cities are all slaves. This also explains why many of the people on the big ship that Tao Zi followed that day were still very happy on the island, but when they entered the city, they became very restrained and humble, because they were the slaves of the nobles in the city, and they could only laugh freely when they went out to buy and had no master.
However, compared to the other four cities, Liang Nanxi, the lord of Lianbi City, can be regarded as having a good way of governance, that is, he must always be vigilant against the offensive of his old rival Langgu City, but the entire jurisdiction of Lianbi City is already a rare prosperous age.
Indoors, five-year-old Liang Muyu sat on his small chair in a formal manner, writing big characters seriously. He was a very bookish child with countless curiosities and desires for the world. Tao Zi smiled and brought him the food on the tray.
In the past five months, Tao Zi has been a monk again, so she has already understood most of the language of the Cloud Boundary, except for the difficulty of writing, there are not too many obstacles to basic verbal communication. But she didn't speak, Liang Muyu rubbed her arm affectionately and coquettishly, he wanted Tao Zi to feed.
Tao Zi sighed, picked up the spoon a little helplessly, and fed him one bite at a time.
Liang Muyu has a weak spleen and stomach, and he thinks less about eating and drinking on weekdays, but this Lin Yi is a soup made of a small amount of spiritual rice, and he can still drink a cup. After drinking, Tao Zi gently wiped the soup stains on the corner of his mouth, then took his hand and went for a walk in the courtyard.
Liang Muyu is congenitally deficient, that is, he has a noble status, and he has tried his best to use rare medicine and food to recuperate since he was a child, and he can still see the difference compared with ordinary children of the same age. And he is just a five-year-old mortal child, he can't use the too powerful natural treasures at all, so he can only slowly warm and recuperate.
In the afternoon, the sun was just warm, and Tao Zi hoped that Liang Muyu could come out to bask in the sun every day. Her big hand took his small hand and walked aimlessly through the garden.
The breeze was slanting, and there were whispers in the distance, which were two beautiful young maids.
"Xiaolian, don't cry, we are the slaves of the city lord, not to mention the difference in identity, even if you become a nobleman one day, I'm afraid this thought will be in vain. ”
"I'm not reconciled, why can't I, but others can? That old woman is so shameless, she doesn't look at the folds on her face when she goes out, she is in her forties, how embarrassed to seduce our city lord!"
"Hey, why are you doing this, who would have thought that a city lord who has not been close to women for more than a hundred years would like ......"
"I just don't accept it, I ......"
Tao Zi felt that her ears were a little noisy, and she didn't listen to this kind of gossip, but she didn't want to let the ignorant and naïve Liang Muyu be affected. She coughed twice, and glanced coldly at the two little maids, the first time they saw her so powerful, they knew that the person in front of them was not something they could arrange anywhere, and they unconsciously shrank into a ball.
Tao Zi said coldly: "I don't want to hear this kind of thing a second time." Although I am only a guest house, I can still dispose of you two little slaves!"
The two of them were in a hurry, and Tao Zi left with Liang Muyu.
Although Tao Zi has already had an unknown amount of blood on his hands, he never kills people indiscriminately, although he is not a good person, he is not a bad person. is now under the fence, and it seems to be imprisoned and monitored, but for the five-year-old Liang Muyu, she really loves her. Yuan Qi also said the day before yesterday that he was a little jealous of Liang Muyu's goodness.
Just now, I was a fox and a fake tiger to those two maids, in fact, my identity is not much stronger than them, although the city lord's mansion is not harsh on himself, and he has more brocade clothes and delicacies, but it is not as free as coming from outside.
Liang Xinan, who had no intention of passing by here in the distance, took all this into his eyes.
