Li Chang'an sat in Jianlong Pavilion with Lin Dongdong in his arms. Opposite them were Bai Yi Luoyang and Xiao Wuxiang Wang.
Everyone else stood guard to the side, while Li Qing squatted outside the pavilion with the pangolin, eavesdropping on the conversation inside.
He never expected that the vice leader of the Divine Dragon Sect would be a woman.
“My dad favored boys over girls and raised me as a boy all along. Then when I grew up, he made me wear a mask and not show my face in front of others, afraid that people would find out that he had a daughter and was ashamed.”
Miao Qingqing sat in the chair, munching on the sunflower seeds Li Chang'an had given her, squinting her eyes as she took a sip of iced cola, looking completely content.
"Haha, this is really delicious. I'll stick with you from now on, and you can treat me to this every day, okay?"
Seeing her drinking with relish, Luo Yang couldn't resist taking a sip himself.
She felt a rush of air to her brain, and she frowned. After the air subsided, she tasted a sweet flavor in her mouth, and the cool cola went down her throat and into her stomach.
Her eyes lit up immediately; she felt this stuff tasted much better than alcohol.
Looking at the two female disciples, Li Chang'an couldn't help but ask, "So, you two are both members of the Divine Dragon Sect!"
He pointed at Miao Qingqing and said, "You are the daughter of the leader of the Divine Dragon Sect, and she is the leader's only disciple."
"Then how did she become the leader of the Ming Cult?"
Luo Yang looked a little embarrassed and scratched his head.
"Actually, both the Divine Dragon Cult and the Ming Cult were founded by my master."
"The Divine Dragon Cult is actually Divine Dragon Island, which was my master's home. Later, when he went to kill and set fires, he used the name of the Divine Dragon Cult."
"When rescuing people at Bright Peak, we used the name of the Ming Cult. However, we killed too many people later, and our identity was accidentally exposed. The Ming Cult then became a demonic cult."
"Later, the Ming Cult had too many members, and my master didn't want to manage it because he found it troublesome, so he passed the position of Ming Cult leader to me."
Li Chang'an covered his head, finally figuring out the relationship between the two of them.
"So what are you doing here today?"
Miao Qingqing hugged her cola and started drinking it. With each sip, she showed a happy expression, and her two legs under the table began to swing up and down, clearly indicating that she was in a very good mood.
“My dad hasn’t come back for a long time, and my mom just passed away last month. There’s no one to take care of me, so I left the island to find my dad.”
"When I was halfway there, I met a blind man. I took pity on him and let him follow me."
"But you're better than me, so from now on you'll be my boss. I'll follow you, okay?"
Miao Qingqing doesn't like anyone.
After her mother left, she was alone on the island and didn't know how to cook or do laundry.
A person looks at the stars alone.
Later, she left Dragon Island wearing a mask, intending to find her father.
She encountered many bad people who tried to cheat her along the way, but luckily she was skilled in martial arts and was not bullied.
She encountered a blind man along the way, and realized that as the vice leader of the Divine Dragon Cult, she should have a subordinate.
So she used her fists to get Li Qing to follow her.
It wasn't until she heard that a deity was coming to the capital that she eagerly came over to join the fun and see if her father was there.
Unexpectedly, she ran into Aunt Luoyang and met a man who looked just like her father.
She inexplicably developed feelings for Li Chang'an.
Luo Yang sighed, "After my master left, his men began to outwardly comply but inwardly defy him, each of them using the Ming Cult's banner to commit evil deeds everywhere."
"I was too lazy to care, so I just came out for a walk. I didn't expect to hear there was something interesting to see, so I came over."
"I never expected to run into my junior brother, oh no, junior sister, whom I haven't seen for several years here."
Li Chang'an looked at the two of them without saying a word, and began to think.
Before he could make up his mind, he heard Cao Zhengchun shout.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
"Welcome, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"
Everyone knelt down on the ground, except for Li Chang'an, who remained seated in his chair. He turned to look at the approaching convoy, his eyes calm.
The convoy stopped in front of Jianlong Pavilion, and a middle-aged man dressed in a dragon robe stepped down.
He looked up and around, meeting the gaze of Li Chang'an, who was sitting in the pavilion holding a little girl.
This was the first time Emperor Jianyuan met Li Chang'an.
One stood beside the carriage, and the other sat inside the Jianlong Pavilion.
The two looked at each other, and the air fell silent.
Even Miao Qingqing held her breath, afraid of disturbing the atmosphere.
Looking at the man in front of Li Chang'an, who was wearing a dragon robe and looked like Chao Ge, a sentence popped into Li Chang'an's mind.
For Avamuré!
No, Brother Chao, did you switch channels?
Why did you come to this Ming Dynasty to be the emperor instead of running with your brothers?
Emperor Jianyuan, Zhou Chao, looked at Li Chang'an and suddenly jogged over to him.
"My dear minister, the weather is getting cold, and you don't even know to wear an extra layer of clothing."
Zhou Chao looked at him reproachfully and draped his dragon robe over Li Chang'an, saying, "It's windy in the mountains, my dear minister, don't catch a cold."
Cao Zhengchun stared blankly at Li Chang'an, who was dressed in a dragon robe, his mind completely blank.
The civil and military officials behind him were in an uproar.
Li Chang'an looked at the dragon robe on his body and then at the familiar face in front of him, feeling like his brain wasn't quite up to the task.
How am I supposed to rebel now that you've got this?
You're the emperor! You're supposed to be putting a dragon robe on me, but you've completely messed things up.
Zhou Chao held his hand, his eyes filled with tears.
"My dear minister, I have been waiting for you in vain!"
"Come, come, let me introduce you to the civil and military officials."
