Devil’s Advent - Vol 4 Chapter 45

“Madam, here’s some bean curd.”

“Okay, little lord, you take it, and you take the time to send it back, so you won’t be charged for money.”

“Thank you Madam.”

The bean curd lady looked at the beautifully dressed and lovely little girl in front of her, she was rare and generous, and confiscated the money she spent on the bowl.

In the early years, everything in the Jindong region was the property of the royal mansion. Counting from all walks of life, the owner was the royal mansion.

In recent years, the Royal Palace has lifted the ban on some industries so that the small people can participate and manage;

Among them, snack stalls are the majority, and because the ethnic and immigrant ingredients in the Jindong area account for the majority, there are many kinds of flavor snacks.

After all, regardless of the dynasty and generation, the catering industry is the easiest thing for the people to use. Of course, it is also the easiest thing to break down.

But no matter what, when the number of small merchants and hawkers on the street has increased, this originally too serious Fengxin City has a lot of smoke and firework.

The girl held a bowl of bean curd in her hand, handed the half-eaten candied haws to the maid beside her, took the spoon and scooped the bean curd into her mouth.

“Yeah~”

After the girl swallowed the bean curd, she smashed her mouth.

“It’s terrible.”

Immediately, another maid next to her reached out, took the bowl, and started eating.

Da Niu’s dad is a delicious master, and many of the fashionable foods in the world are said to be made by her dad.

Therefore, the back chef of the Royal Palace is definitely of the world’s top-notch level;

And they don’t demand any big fish, big meat, mountains, and seafood. They often make some snacks to suit the prince’s appetite.

To the big girls who have eaten bean curd at home, the bean curd sold outside looks the same, but it doesn’t taste like a thing at all.

But the royal family tutor is strict and is not allowed to waste food, so the girl will not eat, and the maid next to him will immediately pick it up and finish it, and return the bowl by the way.

“Adi, Adi.”

The big girl called Zheng Lin, and Zheng Lin walked in front. Behind Zheng Lin stood tall people wearing black clothes and cloaks.

Zheng Lin turned his head and looked at his sister.

“Let’s go have tea.”

The girl stepped forward and took her brother’s arm.

“I heard from them before that Aunt Hong’er and her family had just done a fight; it was because her family went to the grandfather’s shop to drink tea.”

Zheng Lin simply rolled his eyes at his sister.

Tao;

“If Erniang knew that I would take you to that place…”

“My mother won’t hit you.”

“She will tell my dad.”

“Father won’t hit you.”

“Father will tell my mother.”

“Well……”

Some industries lifted by the Royal Palace also include the Red Account.

Although the most high-end Red Account in Fengxin City is still managed by the Royal Mansion, some small workshops are already operating independently

However, because the ones who are really beautiful and talented are more inclined to the red tent of the royal palace background, now the small workshops outside are basically dominated by old and declining ones.

And because doing business in Fengxin City needs to go to the relevant yamen to get the license, and the license process of the red account property is relatively long, so many small workshops have played a sidekick and existed under the name of “tea house”;

And because there are a large number of old mothers and grandmothers, many of the customers are also very old. Therefore, this type of teahouse is also called “grandfather’s shop”.

Aunt Hong is a washermaid in the palace, and the women are cheating in private, but the princess of the palace listens to her.

Zheng Lin knows that if the family knows that they will take Sister to that kind of place, Sister will be fine, and it will be very difficult for her…

“Then, let’s drink serious tea, listen to the story, there is also lively there.”

Zheng Lin frowned. He didn’t want to go to the unscrupulous teahouse, and he didn’t want to go to the serious teahouse.

Because the storyteller there likes to tell the stories that the following tea customers like the most, and it is often the story of his father.

If you hear too much, you will feel inexplicably that they seem to know their father better than themselves;

Even, there will be an illusion, do you have two fathers?

A father, lying on the chair at home;

The other father, who had been fighting outside, had been fighting for three days and three nights with hermit masters, causing the mountains and the ground to crack and the water to flow backwards.

Seeing that my brother was not willing to go, the girl pouted:

“This can’t work, it’s hard to get out of the air, but you can’t just go back like this.”

Zheng Lin wanted to remind his sister that the reason why they are so difficult to get out of the palace now is not because someone played and ran away from home last time?

So far,

Zheng Lin looked up at the existence standing behind him;

According to seniority, he is his grandfather.

Once he left the mansion, Grandpa would wake up from the coffin and follow him without leaving.

Zheng Lin tried to sneak out of the courtyard wall of the palace, and after grandfather came out, he wanted to get out of his own body;

then,

Grandpa raised his fist and smashed himself directly into the air. Even though he had an amazing physique since he was a child, he still vomited blood under this fist.

Zheng Lin has realized the love of the next generation;

In the end, he could only go home and recover from his injuries.

And Sister, the second mother’s order to Sister is that if Sister leaves home again, then all the maids, mothers, themselves and their families who have served Sister since childhood will be cut off.

Sister herself did not dare to challenge her mother’s bottom line.

Therefore, the two dolls had to stay in the palace for so long obediently, and finally asked for a chance to go out.

This was because his father had won the battle and Erniang was very happy to obtain the accommodation.

“Then let’s go to the Calabash Temple, and the papermakers will play.”

“Ok.”

The girl immediately ordered a maid next to her, and the maid nodded, and immediately went to pass the message.

After a while, the maid returned with a positive reply.

“Go, brother!”

The elder girl took her younger brother out of the north gate.

Before that, a team of patrolmen had already started in advance and came to the Calabash Temple to clear the field.

When the two little masters came to the entrance of the temple, many people gathered on both sides of the temple.

During peacetime, the two children have long been used to clearing the ground. Sometimes their father would “play with the people” and sometimes need to be alone and quiet.

But today, it is different.

Many of the people who were stopped by the patrol officer were wrapped in plain clothes.

“Ask, what’s wrong.”

“Yes, princess.”

After a while, the maid returned to report: “If you return to your Highness, the list of soldiers who died last night was sent to Fengxin City.”

The news of the victory actually came down very early. After all, the connection between Fengxin City and the front line is basically unbroken every day, but the statistics of the dead have a certain lag, and it takes more than two rounds of statistics to confirm and send back. At the same time, before the statistics, the army still has to do many other things such as garrisoning in Anzhai.

The girl pursed her lips, looked at her brother, and said:

“Adi, what should I do?”

Today, all the people who come to the temple are the people from the boundary of Fengxin City who have fallen soldiers in their families. They can be regarded as offering incense in advance. According to the custom of Jindong, after the great war, a collective burial ceremony will be held.

“I think it’s not good to stop them.” Zheng Lin said.

“Well, I feel that way too, but since it’s here, it’s all here…”

“Sister, you decide.”

“My dear brother.”

“His Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness are here!!!”

In fact, the people outside the temple had long guessed that it was someone from the palace.

Because of this Calabash Temple, only people from the royal palace will have soldiers to clear the ground to maintain order. Other officials, regardless of how old they are, are not qualified.

However, after hearing that His Royal Highness and the Princess had come down, the people’s eyes were full of excitement.

In Jindong, the prince is the “emperor” and the prince is the prince.

“Meet His Royal Highness, Chitose, and His Royal Highness, Chitose!”

Everyone knelt down.

Da Niu and Zheng Lin walked side by side, walked to the entrance of the temple, Da Niu stopped, and ordered the people around him to get the joss stick.

Subsequently,

His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness the Princess stood on the right side of the temple gate, holding incense in their hands.

After ordering the soldiers to release the clearing and let people come in, anyone who puts on white can receive three fragrances from the hand of the prince or princess.

In this era, this is a great courtesy;

Many people, with tears in their eyes, took the fragrance, then entered the temple and inserted the incense burner to complete the incense;

Because you have to line up when you enter, you can’t delay the next generation, so after the incense is completed, the people will kneel down and bow to the two noble figures after they come out from the other side of the gate.

Crying, still crying, sad, still sad.

However, the people of Jindong, especially the bidders, had a kind of free and easy freedom that surpassed those of other places in the matter of death in battle.

Because the land of Jindong was brought down by fighting and fighting, in the eyes of other people in Zhuxia, the Yan people were martial artists, so they were called barbarians. The Jindong area was almost completely rebuilt from the white land under the leadership of the princes by outsiders. Where it was established, its martial arts style can be described as the greatest swallow.

In addition, Jindong has a very mature system for the compensation and arrangements for the war dead, and the family does not have to worry about future livelihoods.

Therefore, after passing through the hands of two little nobles, those three incenses brought unusual meanings.

Let’s talk about it in a unified way, probably this is the way people die for their confidants.

The people of Jindong are not afraid of the dead or fighting, but they are not used to it. War should have been part of their lives, especially bidders.

Many old people brought their children to offer incense, wiping their tears and beckoning their grandson to kowtow with them.

The words are just two or three sentences, monotonous but extraordinarily simple;

Probably, my child, your father followed the prince to fight and died in battle, it’s not silly; when you grow up, you will fight with the little prince, it’s silly.

Because of the large number of people, this kind of incense continued from noon to dusk.

after the end,

The door of the Calabash Temple was closed.

The big girl yelled to be hungry, and Monk Lefan personally brought the Zhaifan, a large bowl of white rice, covered with green leaves.

The girl flicked her chopsticks and found that it was covered with braised pork, lion’s head and diced chicken;

She raised her head to look at Monk Fan, who also smiled slightly.

The big girl eats in a hurry. When she’s really hungry, she doesn’t care what she eats, it will be delicious.

Zheng Lin was eating too, but he was eating more implicitly than his sister.

He looked at his sister, sister’s physique is much worse than his own, this is congenital.

Moreover, Sister has always carried Long Yuan since she was a child, and she will definitely follow the path of a swordsman in the future. She is not in a hurry to polish her body.

Therefore, after standing for most of the day, you have to bow your body slightly when delivering the incense, which is a big burden for Sister’s body.

Zheng Lin knows that when playing children, his father’s favorite is his sister.

People don’t find reasons from themselves, Zheng Lin doesn’t think about how unpleasant he is, as a son;

However, Zheng Lin has never been jealous that Sister can be so favored by her father.

What Sister didn’t know was that when she asked Erniang for leave, he was outside.

Then, because I was promoted to the first grade recently, my hearing was better than before. Although I was separated by the courtyard wall, I also heard the conversation between Sister and Erniang.

Sister said that many people will definitely go to the Calabash Temple today to offer incense to their loved ones who died in the battle. She wants to take her brother, who is the son of the eldest son. If you want to inherit the throne of your father in the future, you should go.

Erniang, who had never dared to let the two children go out, agreed when she heard this.

After all, in any case, there is no reason why she can’t stop the royal family’s son from gathering people’s hearts.

In order to help her gather people’s hearts, Auntie stayed with her for most of the day.

In fact, Zheng Lin has no obsession with the throne.

He also told Uncle Bei of his own thoughts.

Then he was overturned by Uncle Bei with mental power more than 20 times, and then with mental impact, blood was overflowing from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth;

At last,

Uncle Bei almost pressed his face to him and said in a pleasant tone:

You will be strong, and you will definitely be strong in the future, but can you be strong enough?

Although Zheng Lin was still unconvinced in his heart, he did not dare to say anything about the throne.

In the eyes of outsiders, even including their own sister and Erniang and Sanniang, the gentlemen in the palace can be said to have a “soft spot” for themselves;

But this kind of “love” is really not something ordinary people can afford.

However, Zheng Lin has never hated or complained about them. After being tortured, beaten and taught, he can still eat and drink with them with a nosebleed and a sip of wine;

Uncles once said that they are the same kind of people as them, and they feel that way too.

The old monk Kongyuan brought the soup, saying it was tofu soup;

The soup is delicious, the tofu is very fresh and tender, but not many pieces. On the contrary, it is a little more fish as a side dish.

Eat and drink,

Zheng Lin wanted to ask Sister if she wanted to go home, after all, Grandpa was still waiting outside the temple.

But the big girl seemed to be in high spirits, saying that the paper man couldn’t move anymore, but she could still have fun.

The paper man is a toy for the two children. What the common people call a paper man means to be a paper man, and the two children are really used to make a paper man.

From the time their parents took them into the temple when they were very young, they had a feeling of…unexplainable disgust towards the moving paper man.

Later, every time I had a chance to enter the Calabash Temple, I would make him entertain.

This is really not cruel, it can only be said that the good repays the evil and the evil, the cycle of cause and effect;

After all, the Taoists back then entered Feng New City to do something when they were about to be born, but now they are just paying off their debts.

But today,

The paper man has changed his body. This looks like a very delicate and expensive style. Because the Hulu Temple itself has taken in a lot of disabled soldiers, they will also sell some gold ingot paper men in their spare time. Sale

But what is really doing well is the funeral shop in Fengxin City.

The body of the paper man is very spiritual. It is the image of an official, and he sits on a chair like an official.

“The State of Chu is defeated. Unless your father suddenly decides to oppose Yan, the power of the State of Yan is already a success.”

The two children picked up the stone and the small wooden stick. They didn’t respond to what the paper man said.

Every time they come to play with the paper man, the paper man always likes to scream and say something plausible. They are used to it.

Seeing that his opening remarks could not stop the rhythm of the two children,

The paper man panicked,

Busy road:

“I know that group of beasts, they thought they were looking at the secret. Now that the general situation is like this, most of them don’t have the courage to stand in front of the general situation by themselves, but most of them will use some small tricks!

such as,

you guys!

For example, your sister! ”

Zheng Lin reached out and blocked his sister.

The paper man’s body swelled a little, then shrivelled again, as if he let out a long sigh of relief.

“There is a group of people who live in the shadows, but they boast that they are bright and uphold the will of heaven. They can’t help your father. Your father is now blessed by the king’s aura. Even if it is an ordinary lord, it is not as deep as your father.

Just like the Tibetan master back then, he couldn’t do anything to the emperor, but he could…

Therefore, you may become their target. ”

Zheng Lin smiled.

Road:

“We are safe.”

“not necessarily.”

“Aren’t you just an example?” the girl asked rhetorically.

“They have a lot of me.”

The girl was pleasantly surprised: “So, we have a lot of paper people to play in the future?”

“……”paper man.

The two children didn’t feel much about this warning;

They have known since childhood that they are honorable and that they are very dangerous, but at the same time, they are also stronger than their peers or even ordinary people since childhood;

The protection they receive is more than enough to give them peace of mind.

“I have a foreboding that they will take action against you.” The paper man almost “screamed.”

“Then I won’t run away from home,” said the girl.

“Do you want to hide for a lifetime!”

“Daddy won’t let them hide for a lifetime.” The girl said very surely.

“I can protect you.” The paper man said.

The girl laughed,

Zheng Lin smiled.

Even the monk Leo Fan, who was standing at the back, couldn’t help but laugh with him.

“I can really!” The paper man felt insulted;

Immediately, it seemed to vent some anger,

Small voice:

“I can help your father and find them.”

“Wow!”

The paper man was smashed through a big hole.

next moment,

Another paper man lying next to him suddenly moved. Obviously, the Taoist changed his body again and yelled angrily:

“What is this! What is this!”

Zheng Lin tilted his head,

Looking at the new paper man,

Road:

“How boring if you find out in advance?”

“I can promise you.”

At this time, a woman’s voice came.

The girl turned her head to look, and immediately leaned forward with a smile on her face, shouting:

“Mother, I miss you so much.”

“obedient.”

Siniang picked up the big girl, stretched out her hand and squeezed her face.

“Auntie, you are back, where’s father?”

“Your father is still on the front line. I’ll come back to hand over some matters first. By the way, I would like to ask your mother if he wants to go back to her natal house.”

“Hmm, really? My mother said, the way home was difficult before.”

“Now the road is repaired.” Siniang said.

At this time, Zheng Lin, who was standing there, tried to stand a little straighter, trying to imitate the big **** his face, showing a happy smile.

Road:

“Mother, you are back.”

Siniang hugged her eldest girl and walked to her son.

“boom!”

The son was kicked and hit by the well.

“How boring if you find out in advance?”

Siniang stepped forward again,

Zheng Lin’s body was stretched subconsciously, trying to escape, but a string of silk thread was released from his mother’s hand, and his ankle was tied and dragged back.

“boom!”

His mother stomped on his face,

Bowed his head and cursed:

“Do you know how much you said just now like a **** villain?

Do you know how they died?

same as you,

Stupid!

My old mother worked so hard to give birth to you,

I would rather you drown in the well now than you would die of stupidity! ”

“Auntie, brother knows that he was wrong.” The lady pleaded for help.

“Om!”

The silk thread is pulled,

Zheng Lin was lifted up and hung in front of Siniang.

“mother……”

“Do you know it’s wrong?”

“I do not have……”

“Snapped!”

Siniang held the eldest girl in her right hand, drew a big mouth on her son’s face with her left hand, and directly punched blood out of the corner of her son’s mouth.

This is not a club education, nor is it considered domestic violence…

After all, the children of ordinary people are very delicate, but the cubs of the Zheng family can give birth to cheetahs when they can walk.

The girl understood her heart, and immediately said:

“Auntie, Adi is imitating Daddy, and Daddy likes to say this kind of very appropriate words, Adi is imitating Daddy.”

Zheng Lin heard this explanation,

I was in a hurry right away,

Road:

“I’m not.”

“Snapped!”

“He is also worthy of me…”

“Snapped!”

“I’m wrong.”

“Snapped!”

“…” Zheng Lin.

Poor child, both faces are covered with slap marks.

The girl closed her eyes. Although this is a drama that the family has often staged all these years, she still can’t bear to watch it.

Moreover, the girl felt that the aunt who had just stepped down from the battlefield, this time she started, seemed to be so much heavier than before.

This last slap seemed to be a bit wronged by Zheng Lin.

But in fact…

“I’ve got a lot of skills, my mother was almost fooled by you and didn’t notice it. Your kid actually took advantage of the time when we were all going to the front line, and he was eroding the seal on his body?”

Zheng Lin immediately showed a look of horror. He knew that before, it was just a daily interactive game between mother and child;

But after this matter is discovered, it is very likely that it will really be…

“Mother, the seal loosened by itself. I just entered a new product, and it loosened.”

“boom!”

Zheng Lin was overturned to the ground, face down, extremely miserable.

Siniang turned his head, looked at the paper man, and said;

“Let you linger until today, only to find that you still have a little use. The next thing, if you do it well, we will figure out a way to reshape your body. If you don’t do it well, you will be completely wiped out.”

“Understand, understand.” The paper man immediately promised.

immediately,

Siniang walked in front of her holding the girl,

The silk thread dragged his son to slide on the ground,

When he passed the threshold of the temple, his son would be turned upside down;

When I arrived at the door, I saw Sha Tuo Queshi standing there in a black robe, Siniang’s tone softened a little.

Road:

“You live alone in loneliness. Starting today, this kid will live in the same house with you, just to relieve your boredom until his father and his uncles come back from the front.”

Sha Tuo Queshi stretched out his hand,

A mass of aura condensed, Zheng Lin on the ground was pulled up, caught in his hand, and then flung it and fell on his shoulder.

Afterwards, he turned around and walked towards the city gate.

Entered the city,

Entered the palace,

Go to the backyard again,

Then enter the underground chamber.

Sha Tuo Queshi put Zheng Lin on the coffin,

Zheng Lin, who had a blue nose and a swollen face, even sat up directly at this time, showing that his physical strength is indeed genuine.

“Don’t worry, grandpa, I’m very loyal, and I will never tell my mother what you used to help me kill the seal.

But you have also heard, my mother has already found out, when Uncle Aming and Uncle Bei come back, they will reinforce the seal for me.

You will work harder tonight and help me to wipe off the seal completely so that I can take advantage of them before they come back…”

Sha Tuo Queshi stretched out his hand backward,

“Boom!”

The big iron door of the secret room suddenly fell, and under the traction of the air machine, from the outside, the lock was dropped.

“Ho ho…”

A hoarse sound came from Sha Tuo Queshi’s throat.

Obviously, the grandfather loved his grandson before and helped to kill the seal to give the grandson more freedom to play, which was nothing.

But hearing what the paper man said and Siniang’s reaction, the nature of the matter suddenly changed.

The big iron gate falls, isolating everything inside and out;

Unless someone outside opens it with great force, from the inside, with Zheng Lin’s power, it can’t be opened, and even Sha Tuo Queshi himself can’t open it, because he lives here, but at the bottom, he suppresses one. Guys.

Zheng Lin sighed~www.mtlnovel.com~ knowing that grandpa will not help himself,

But still asked with concern:

“Grandpa, how much tribute do you have left?”

“amount……”

Sha Tuo Queshi froze for a moment, and he realized that he seemed to have forgotten a very important thing.

It was Zheng Fan and Tiantian who used to come to give confessions to him, but now the father and son are on the front line, and here is the forbidden area of ​​the palace, so no one has come to give confessions to him for a long time.

Realizing that something seemed to be wrong, His Royal Highness immediately turned over and got down the coffin.

From a pile of candle censer,

Turn out a dish of dried tea that has become dark and not slippery in autumn.

“Master, what do I eat?”
