Chapter 826: Don’t Break Your Word
Jiang Lianzhu said, "Although we now recognize each other's identities, the matter of sending a bride is a matter between two countries. We shouldn't tear each other apart on the surface, right?"
"On the surface, they won't do that, but what if they're playing dirty? Either you let someone else send the bride and go back to Da'an Kingdom with me, or I'll go with you. It's your choice." Si Langjun is also a straightforward person.
Jiang Lianzhu...
What else can we do?
There was no way she was going to give up halfway like this.
Gecheng is a dangerous place, and she wants to go there to try her luck.
By going back, isn't it obvious that she is afraid of the witch clan of the Darong Kingdom?
Although her father was fine, her mother's affairs still needed to be investigated. That woman cast a dark witchcraft on her, and her mother's soul was imprisoned after her death, and she was suffering all day long. It would be fine if it was fake, but what if it was true?
Even after death, she couldn't rest in peace and had to suffer so much. She had taken over someone else's daughter's body, and she couldn't just stand by and watch. She didn't believe that the identical woman she saw on her father's side was really her mother.
In addition, she is now at the peak of the Great Wizard Mirror and a full wizard, so she has some confidence in herself.
She is going to Gecheng!
Also, she had promised the Third Princess that she would send her there safely, so she couldn't go back on her word.
I also want to go to Longtanhuxue.
Now that Silangjun was going to join the wedding procession, she couldn't help but feel a little braver.
Thousands of words turned into one sentence, "Fourth brother, thank you!"
Silangjun hummed as a matter of course, "Have a good rest."
Pushed the door and left.
The injured wizards who were captured still need to be tried...
Jiang Lianzhu found it a little funny again.
This fourth brother is really good to her.
With such a good fourth brother, I wonder what kind of fourth sister-in-law will be worthy of him in the future.
That’s not right. It seems that the gentlemen in Prince Zhan’s Mansion cannot get married. If they get married, they will be regarded as automatically leaving Prince Zhan’s Mansion.
This condition is a bit harsh. One day, when her father comes back, she will discuss with her father to change this rule. In the past, it was to reassure Emperor Xuan that the adopted sons of Prince Zhan's Mansion were not allowed to get married and have offspring. Now that Emperor Xuan is gone and Dabao is the emperor, Dabao should not be superstitious about these things.
If we change the rules, the remaining three brothers can all get married, have beautiful brides, and live a normal and happy life.
Jiang Lianzhu was in a relaxed mood, thinking about all these things. She was so tired that she fell into a deep sleep not long after.
***
Tianya Academy, a forbidden area in the back mountain.
The two servants carried the box and looked around as they walked, as if they were here for the first time.
He was stopped by the gatekeeper of the college.
He shouted, "Who are you two? What are you doing here, looking around? No one is allowed to enter here!"
The two servants stopped immediately.
A servant explained with an apologetic smile, "Master, we are servants of the Prince Xiang's Mansion."
Upon hearing this, the academy's doorman's expression softened a bit. "I'm not a teacher or a master. I'm just a gatekeeper. Are you from Prince Xiang's Palace? What are you doing here?"
Prince Xiang's Mansion was where the young emperor used to live.
"Yes, we are servants of the Prince Xiang's Mansion. Look at our clothes, they have the logo of the Prince Xiang's Mansion. We are here on the orders of the Prince of our mansion to deliver some food and daily necessities to the back mountain..."
Even without saying it explicitly, the gatekeeper understood.
He glanced at her and said, "Go in, don't look around, put your things down and come out quickly."
"Okay!"
The two servants bowed and went in.
As soon as you enter the forbidden area in the back mountain.
There was a waterfall there, and one of the servants was a little afraid of water.
"How about we put the things outside the waterfall? The master seems to have said that we don't need to go inside the waterfall."
Another companion beside him said, "How badly we've done this! Thank you, Li Niang, for trusting us and giving us this opportunity. If we don't do it well, they won't let us run errands next time. Zhao Cai, you wait outside while I carry the things inside. Won't I get soaked? I'll go!"
"Then I'll leave it to you, Jinbao."
"Let's not talk about this, brothers. When we return home, I'll definitely tell you that you also entered the waterfall."
"Yeah, thank you, Brother Jinbao."
…
The servant named Jinbao was tall. He passed through the waterfall curtain and entered the inner entrance of the cave. People outside could not see what was going on inside because of the curtain.
We also couldn't see his expression after he entered the water curtain.
His eyes were evil as he surveyed the sealed cave entrance several times before taunting him softly, "Liao Jiu, you've been in seclusion for a while! I'm afraid you haven't gotten over your obsession yet! And it's all because of your greed, insisting on eating things that don't belong to you. It's a common problem of yours, aren't you afraid of starving yourself to death?"
After saying that, the tall servant took out some powder and sprinkled it at the closed entrance of the cave.
The powder neutralized with the moisture of the waterfall and turned into wisps of green smoke. At first glance, it looked like the faint vapor of the waterfall.
Float into the cave.
The tall servant twitched his lips, his face wrinkled. "This human skin mask is really hard to use. Fortunately, it won't be long before I don't have to wear it anymore! Liao Jiu, you should return everything you stole from me."
The waterfall flows endlessly, and the cave is quiet and silent.
The tall servant did not stay for long. After looking around for the last time, he looked proud.
"Liao Jiu, I'll come back in a few days."
After coming out of the waterfall, he met up with the other servant.
He resumed his previous nodding and hunching image, "This water curtain is also wet inside. I don't know why Li Niang asked us to come here to deliver something. It's very humid in there. Could it be that someone is living here? Forget it, it's not our place to talk about. Let's just do our job and not say anything more."
The other servant was a bit more timid and quickly replied, "Yes, yes, it's none of our business. Let's go. It's getting chilly here and getting colder. Your clothes are wet, don't get sick. Go back and change your clothes."
The two left in a hurry.
***
The next morning, Jiang Lianzhu woke up feeling refreshed.
Not only has her magic power changed significantly, her willpower has become stronger, and even her complexion and appearance have changed slightly.
The complexion naturally looks better, the skin is white with a rosy glow, and as delicate as a baby's.
Her appearance has also improved. Her facial features are still the same, her eyebrows and eyes are still the same, but they are just a little prettier.
It's not that she is conceited or self-satisfied. Even when Si Langjun came in the morning to call her for breakfast, she was subconsciously stunned for a moment, which shows that Si Langjun also noticed her difference.
"Fourth brother, do I look better now?"
Si Langjun said, "It is said that the witch ancestors of the Wu clan have quite outstanding appearances. They can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, especially the moonlight. Therefore, it is not surprising that their appearance will change a little. However, my sister is also very beautiful."
000 The kitten didn't survive. Sigh. I tried my best. It's too small.
