...I want to beg for Jiuchen’s generous forgiveness again as a younger brother.

With a bang, many warriors rushed in from outside the door.

Seeing the situation in the house, they didn't know what to do next.

Jiuchen said calmly, "Take Lingzi Zongxu to the Elders' Council and wait for punishment."

Zong Xu suddenly stood up from the ground, "Haha... You said to detain me? There is no evidence to convict me! What rights do you have to arrest me?"

Facing Zong Xu's questioning, Jiu Chen remained calm. He looked at the plain-clothed young man who came in with the military attendant and said, "Go to the cabinet over there. There is a wrapped thing in the first drawer. It contains all the evidence that Lingzi Zong Xu has harmed me over the years. If necessary, you can find the corresponding witness according to the address above and go to the Elders' Council to testify in court."

"!!!"

Hearing this, Zong Xu staggered back.

It turns out that Jiuchen had already collected and sorted these things over the years.

He was not so arrogant as to ignore the repeated harm he suffered, but he had already written down everything and kept the evidence in his hands.

"It's not that I don't want to take revenge, it's just that the time has not come yet?" Zong Xu muttered to himself suddenly, and then two martial servants came forward and took him away in a daze. He did not resist.

After the young man in plain clothes found out what Jiuchen was talking about, he followed everyone out.

At this moment, only Su Changzhao and Jiuchen were left in the room.

Jiuchen just looked towards Su Changzhao when he heard Su Changzhao ask in a negative tone:

"When did you find out?"

Jiuchen glanced at her calmly, then said softly:

"Not long."

"Then why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

"What?" Jiuchen suddenly turned to her and walked closer.

"..." Su Changzhao was enveloped by his aura, and his confidence was a little lacking. "It's just... you already know..."

"Then why didn't you ask me for help in the end?" Jiuchen interrupted her and questioned her.

"I..." Su Changzhao was speechless for a moment, "This is my business, I can handle it myself."

Hearing her stubborn words, Jiuchen continued to move forward, "Oh? Then what do you think your chances of winning would be if I hadn't been prepared today?"

“…………”

"Why aren't you talking?"

Su Changzhao pursed his lips for a few times, and finally said, "You are right. Today's matter is all thanks to you. Thank you."

"That's all?"

"???" Su Changzhao looked at him in surprise, "If not this...what else can we do? What else do you want?"

"I think……"

Seeing that the other party's tone and eyes were gradually becoming wrong, Su Changzhao's heart was filled with alarm!

"Wait, where's my doll?" He spread his hands, "Give it back to me."

She said deliberately.

This was also her ultimate goal.

As long as she gets the doll she can leave.

Seeing that Su Changzhao was deliberately avoiding him, Jiuchen placed the puppet in his hand into her open palm.

Su Changzhao couldn't help but smile with joy after finally getting the contract doll.

But the next second, she was poured with a basin of cold water.

"Can you solve it?" Jiuchen asked.

What he said was simply the method of dissolving the contract.

Su Changzhao: "You can?"

Jiuchen raised his chin and said proudly, "Looking at the entire territory, no, the entire Seven Kingdoms, I am the only one who can remove the poison from you and the contracted doll in the shortest time."

Su Changzhao had no doubt about this.

After all, he is the one who is going to become the Son of God. He has been carefully cultivated by the Council of Elders for many years. He is the best in the field of poisonous insects and hallucinations. Who could be more professional than him?

"Leave it to me."

Looking at Jiuchen's open palm, Su Changzhao tightened the contract doll he had finally obtained in his hand, pondered for a moment, and finally handed it to the other party.

"Then... Master must help me get rid of the poison, right?"

She said with her usual bright smile.

"Of course." Jiuchen answered as a matter of course without thinking too much.

The following days.

The entire Yundu City became busy.

The fifteenth day is when their Holy Son will take over.

From the Council of Elders to the common people, everyone joined in the fun.

It is said that even commoners had to prepare offerings at home and pray to the gods on the day of the succession ceremony.

Jiuchen, the protagonist, is rarely seen during the day.

Su Changzhao knew that he was busy and it would be inappropriate for him to follow him all the time.

I had no choice but to look for him every night and ask about the progress of the detoxification.

She also thought that as long as she could remove the poison before the ceremony, she would leave on the day of the ceremony.

Jiuchen will definitely be too busy that day to take care of her, so this is the best time to leave.

At that time, she only needs to pretend to have left Yundu, but actually be guarding the teleportation point in Zong Xu's mansion. As long as she waits for the red moon to appear, she can go back.

The plan was perfect.

This day.

She went to Wuqiu Pavilion again to wait for Jiuchen to come back.

At some point, her behavior became seen as a foolish wait in the eyes of others.

The plain-clothed young man Qi Lan is one of them.

When he saw Su Changzhao sitting on the steps under the corridor again, this time he did not just walk away.

"Are you waiting for the adults again?"

Su Changzhao looked at him and nodded, "...Yes."

"Don't worry, everyone in the mansion can see that the master dotes on you very much. No matter how late he is, he will definitely come back."

"Haha." Su Changzhao smiled perfunctorily.

If he doesn't come back, where else can he go?

"We will soon follow the adults to move to the Pilgrimage Temple, and then you should be promoted to a divine servant." Qi Lan said as he sat down next to Su Changzhao.

This was the first time he took the initiative to approach him, and Su Changzhao seemed a little surprised.

Hearing the envy in his tone, Su Changzhao couldn't help but say, "I see that the master also relies on you a lot. Don't worry, I believe that the master will have his own arrangements, and we servants will just obey."

Hearing Su Changzhao's soothing and open-minded tone, Qi Lan smiled bitterly and said, "I want to apologize for my impoliteness when we first met. At first, I just thought you were a puppet who relied on your beauty to get to the top. Now, after listening to your words, I suddenly understand. I am narrow-minded."

Su Changzhao smiled and shook his head, but said in his heart: It's not that I'm open-minded, it's because I won't be staying here for long, so naturally I don't have any worldly desires.

Out of boredom, she asked curiously, "By the way, is there anyone else in your family?"

"Yes, there is one. She is a grandmother who is over 80 years old. She has three younger sisters and a younger brother."

Su Changzhao was slightly surprised: "There are quite a few brothers and sisters."

"Haha, yes," Qi Lan laughed, "Miss Su, what about you?"

"I..." Su Changzhao thought for a moment, "My parents are gone, and I have... four younger brothers."

The four ghosts are younger than her, so it is not wrong to consider them her younger brothers.

"Haha, that's not a small amount."

Su Changzhao smiled bitterly, "Yes."

"Then I guess Miss Su's brothers are all good-looking."

"good."

"Miss Su has been away from home for a while. Have you ever thought about bringing them to Yundu? I heard that Miss Su is not from Yujiang."

When mentioning the four ghosts, Su Changzhao also thought of Bai Longnu, Xiao Qinsu, and everyone in the ghost town.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt homesick.

She really wanted to go back and be with everyone.

He couldn't help but sighed, "I've been away from home for a long time, and I miss them very much. As for taking them over... hehe, it's too far, farther than you can imagine." He shook his head as he spoke, "Maybe after I finish this, I'll leave."

"You're leaving?!"

Qi Lan's exclamation made Su Changzhao realize that he had said the wrong thing.

Oh no, why did I tell the truth?

"No, I just mean... I once thought about going back, but the master is so good to me, I will definitely choose to stay."

Su Changzhao immediately turned the tide.

Upon hearing this, Qi Lan's expression was relieved.

"It's okay, it's okay. I was really afraid that you would leave."

Su Changzhao couldn't help but jokingly said, "Huh? You still can't bear to part with me? I didn't realize it!"

"Who... who can't bear to leave you?" Qi Lan blushed suddenly, and was so nervous that she couldn't speak clearly.

Seeing that he looked somewhat like Jiuchen, Su Changzhao couldn't help but want to tease him, "You're still denying it? Your face is blushing! Hahaha..."

Qi Lan was shy. When Su Changzhao teased her, she immediately stood up and said angrily, "It's my lord! My lord can't bear to part with you! Everyone in the mansion can see it! Can't you see it? I won't tell you anymore!"

Qi Lan ran away.

He didn't realize that his honest words made Su Changzhao feel very uncomfortable.

No way? Jiuchen already values ​​her to this extent?

She really didn't notice.

However.

What she had just said to Qi Lan, as well as her worried and distressed look at this moment, were seen by someone in the corner.

.

Not long after Qi Lan left, Su Changzhao finally waited for Jiuchen to come back.

She quickly stood up, patted her butt, and greeted him with a sweet smile: "Master, you are back?"

Jiuchen said calmly: "Yeah."

Noticing that Jiuchen didn't react much, Su Changzhao was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed him into the gate.

"Master, are you thirsty?"

"Not thirsty."

"Are you hungry? I'll ask the kitchen to make you some cakes."

"No need."

"Then... will the poison on the slave and the contracted puppet be removed soon?"

Hearing this, Jiuchen paused.

He paused for a second before answering, "Almost there... Is there something missing?"

"What's the problem? Can I help you?"

After hearing what Su Changzhao said, Jiuchen suddenly turned around and asked, "Do you really want to help?"

"Well, as long as I can help, I will do my best."

She spoke in a very decisive tone, as if she would do anything as long as the connection between her and the contracted doll could be resolved as soon as possible.

But this action undoubtedly stimulated Jiuchen.

Yes, he had come back early and happened to overhear her conversation with Qi Lan, including her plan to leave, although she tried her best to cover it up later.

She could deceive Qi Lan, but she couldn't deceive him.

Gazing at the pair of lively peach eyes in front of him, Jiuchen asked in his heart: Are you so eager to leave?

"Will you stay with me forever?"

Su Changzhao saw that he was talking nonsense, so in order to appease him, he could only lie, "Of course, the master treats the slave so well, how can the slave bear to leave?"

After saying this, Su Changzhao apologized desperately in his heart: I'm sorry, I really don't want to lie to you if I can.

But Jiuchen couldn't hear her thoughts. Looking at the beautiful person in front of him who was lying with ease, he felt something piercing his heart.

Why did you lie to me?
