Prince Jing's Mansion, study.
Jun Weihe holds a brush, dips the tip of the brush into ink, and sketches a lifelike portrait of a woman on rice paper.
"Your Majesty."
Outside the study, the voice of the head guard was heard.
Jun Weihe's thoughts were interrupted, and his brows frowned slightly. He put down the brush and said, "Come in."
The chief guard pushed the door open and stepped aside to make way. After the woman in black walked in, the chief guard silently closed the door and stood guard at the entrance.
In the study, the woman in black took off the blood-red mask on her face and said with a pout, "Have the guards in your house been strengthened? As soon as I climbed over the wall today, I was discovered."
Jun Weihe said: "You must have deliberately not concealed your aura, otherwise who would have discovered you?"
The woman in black nodded and said, "Indeed, the guards in your house are all incompetent, not as useful as Cang Ye... By the way, where is Cang Ye?"
As soon as she asked this question, a small black velvet ball broke into the room and excitedly jumped on the woman.
"Cang Ye, did you miss me?" The woman reached out and rubbed the fur on its body, asking with a smile.
Black Velvet Dumpling: “Huh!”
Jun Weihe said, "Mother, you usually came to see me secretly before. Why did you let the guards bring you here today..."
"I've told you many times, don't call me mother. If you call me that again, I'll hit you..." The woman in black was holding Zang Ye in her arms. She walked into Junweihe with a dangerous look in her eyes.
She said, "In the past, I could directly sense your aura, so I could find you without anyone leading the way. But now, I can't sense the demonic heart in you... Even if you stood in front of me, I couldn't be sure if you were my son."
Jun Weihe said helplessly: "Could it be possible that I am a fake?"
"That's not necessarily true." The woman in black laughed. She had a charming face, red lips and white teeth, and her eyes were shining, which made her particularly alluring.
The woman in black was named Ye Jingtan. Although she was Jun Weihe's mother, her appearance and figure looked like a twenty-year-old girl, not at all like someone who had given birth to a child.
However, this is normal, because spiritual masters have longer lifespans than ordinary people and age slowly. In addition, some female spiritual masters love beauty and practice anti-aging techniques to stay young forever. As long as they don't say it themselves, others can't guess their real age.
Ye Jingtan stretched out his hand, pressed it against Jun Weihe's chest, and said, "In our lineage, all direct descendants have demonic hearts, without exception..."
If not, then it means the wrong child is taken away.
In addition, a father or mother can sense the demonic heart in a child when they are within a certain distance of the child. This induction is one-way, and the child cannot sense the parents.
But today, Ye Jingtan felt nothing until her hand touched Jun Weihe's chest and felt the familiar heartbeat. Only then did she confirm that the person in front of her was her son.
Ye Jingtan asked, "Weihe, what's wrong with your heart?"
"What's wrong? I think I'm normal..."
This was the first time Ye Jingtan encountered such a situation. She frowned and said nothing.
"By the way, Mom, I have a gift for you." Jun Weihe opened the secret compartment in the study and took out the guqin from it.
Golden and shining, it exudes a luxurious atmosphere.
Ye Jingtan curled the corners of her lips, her eyes revealing a hint of disgust. She had a noble status in the demon world and had seen countless good things, so she looked down upon this golden guqin.
"Son, is there something wrong with your brain? Or is your eyesight not working well and your taste for beauty changed? That's why you chose this thing for me..." Ye Jingtan waved his hand and said, "Keep it for yourself. I don't want it."
"Mother, this is a spiritual weapon. At worst, I can put it in your bedroom as a decoration..."
"No, you're so ostentatious, are you afraid others won't steal it?" Ye Jingtan continued to refuse. Then, as if she had thought of something, her eyes suddenly became sharp. She asked, "Did you get this zither by telling stories?"
Jun Weihe asked in surprise: "Mother... Mother, how did you know?"
"Someone in our family once entered a strange dimension and, by telling stories, received a golden spiritual weapon. But then the Demon Ancestor woke up, looked at the golden spiritual weapon, and said that it was enchanted with a forbidden spell and could explode at any time..."
Ye Jingtan was now worried about her son keeping the golden harp with him. She took the harp and said, "The Demon Ancestor only wakes up once every thousand years. Calculating the days, he's about to wake up. When he wakes up, ask him to help erase the forbidden spell on this golden harp before you can use it."
"Forbidden spell?" Jun Weihe whispered to himself, but he felt that Lan Zhi would not harm him. After all, the two of them had a special relationship...
Just as he was thinking, Ye Jingtan had already picked up the rice paper on the table and asked, "Who are you painting? Your sweetheart?"
Jun Weihe said: "Her name is Lan Zhi, and I seem to like her a little bit... Actually, I paid attention to her before, but I felt that there was no possibility between us, so I never took the initiative to approach her, until..."
"Until what?" Ye Jingtan looked at his son with interest.
Jun Weihe blushed a little, shook his head and said, "No, nothing."
Ye Jingtan urged, "Hurry up and tell me, why are you shy about telling me?"
Jun Weihe naturally couldn't tell the truth, but she was afraid that her mother would keep asking, so she perfunctorily said: "It's nothing, actually. I just happened to meet her that day and found her very kind. I couldn't help but be moved, so I wanted to pursue her and want to marry her..."
"Very good, son, you've finally come to your senses. At your age, it's time to consider getting married..." Ye Jingtan looked at the painting on the rice paper and said with satisfaction, "This girl is very beautiful. I like her very much. Keep up the good work. I'll keep her portrait."
"Mother, what do you want her portrait for..."
"Keep it for your appreciation." Ye Jingtan is a face control. She doesn't care about her son's specific love life. As long as he can bring his daughter-in-law back to her, it will be fine. The appearance of the beauty in the painting just hits Ye Jingtan's aesthetic point. She likes this kind of girl with a cold and aloof temperament. It seems that her son's aesthetic taste is the same as hers. If she has the chance, she wants to meet the beauty in the painting.
"What's this girl's name and where does she live?" Ye Jingtan asked.
…
On the other side, Lan Zhi had already taken a carriage to the best academy in Da Rui Kingdom.
White Jade Academy.
Her second and third brothers are studying here.
The school does not allow outsiders to enter, so Lan Zhi asked someone to send a letter inside.
Not long after, two young men with similar faces came out.
They are twins, look 80% alike and wear the same clothes.
The older twin brother has a gentle face and an elegant scholarly air, while the younger twin brother has a cold expression and gives off an air of keeping strangers away.
However, after seeing Lan Zhi, the two brothers smiled and walked over quickly.
