The host is charming and charming

Chapter 245 General Jieao Always Thinking of Abducting People (84)
The grievances are over, the traitor has been eliminated, and the trip to the forbidden area is over, but there is one person missing.

Zhaoge sleeps forever in the forbidden place, causing Nanwu to panic.

They lost the saint again, and the feeling of hesitation, confusion, and depression enveloped the hearts of every Nanwu citizen, and it was difficult to dissipate.

After the grief, internal problems in Nanwu also surfaced one by one.

Now that a hundred years have passed, the Wu Clan has no one available.

Without the protection of the saint, and the neighboring countries staring at her like a tiger, what should Nanwu do next?
There were two factions in the DPRK very quickly, one faction advocated to vacate the seat of the saint and wait for the next saint to appear;
The other faction advocates the selection of capable persons to replace the position of saintess by means of election, so as to appease the common people and block the eagerness of all parties.

Each faction has its own plans and careful thinking, and the strategies they offer have their own disadvantages. No one will accept the other, and it is difficult to choose the best plan for a while.

Amid the quarrels, the clan leader of the Wu clan left the customs early and returned with a new saint, quickly stabilizing the situation in Nanwu.

Although the new saint is a little girl, she comes from a forbidden place, and the place where the former saint's soul returns is also a forbidden place. The origin of this makes no one dare to make mistakes.

Zijing let them guess, in order to hide Xiaoyao's real background, so he didn't explain too much.

He declared that the saintess was still young, so she had to stay in the witch clan and be taught by him, and she would enter the saintess hall three years later.

Prior to this, everything in the Holy Maiden Hall was handed over to Qi Yunshu, the future concubine of the Young Miao Miao.

In the forbidden area, Ji Tuyu and Qi Yunshu strayed into the illusion together. The former was recognized as the master by the swords, and the latter got the chance to learn the long-lost healing method of the witch clan by accident.

As the leader of the patriarch, Zi Jing would never let the patriarchal law fall into the hands of outsiders.

But now with Qi Yunshu's identity, it's not easy to make a move to avoid future troubles.

The Temple of the Holy Maiden has great responsibilities, so he planned to put Nanwu's weakness into Qi Yunshu's hands, but in fact he was forcing the other party.

In the hearts of the Nanwu people, Qi Yunshu doesn't trust Qi Yunshu. If she wants to take over the position of the saint in charge of the Holy Maiden Hall, she needs to make an oath according to Nanwu's rules, and if she betrays, she will suffer backlash.

In the past, the heroine would never let others push her into the game.

Ke Zhaoge's sacrifice was somewhat related to her, and she felt guilty, so she simply swore an oath to make the patriarch of the Wu clan feel at ease.

Xiaoyao was led by the patriarch to go up to the Saintess Hall for the first time, and was worshiped by thousands of people.

After this appearance, she will follow Zijing back to the Wu Clan and retreat for three years.

Nerves were tense all morning, and finally got through the red tape. When Xiaoyao followed Zijing into the carriage, she relaxed a lot.

She didn't understand why the ceremonial officer had so much to say, and all of them were innocuous, yet everyone was paying attention.

I don't know if Sister Zhaoge used to be the same as me, she also wanted to doze off when she heard it.

Zijing tidied up his sleeves, and saw the little girl on the side resting her head on her hands as if thinking, but there was no worry on her face.

After leaving the forbidden area, her growth returned to normal, her body developed slowly, and even her face changed slightly, with some of the original immaturity faded away.

I thought that she would not get used to these things for the first time, but now it seems that this girl is simply bored.

Zijing pushed a plate of crispy candies in front of her, and said in a low voice, "Seeing that you have not eaten much this morning, let's eat some pastries to fill your belly. I have asked them to prepare meals for you in the clan."

As soon as she heard that she was returning to the Wu Clan, Xiaoyao felt an indescribable sense of closeness and belonging in her heart.

Her eyes lit up for a moment, she quickly straightened herself up, and said obediently:

"Don't worry, patriarch, I will do everything well and strive to become the best saint in Nanwu in the future!"

Xiaoyao has a rare courage and sincerity, Zijing smiled slightly, nodded lightly and said:

"I believe in you."

This smile made Xiao Yao restrained, she scratched her head embarrassedly, then seemed to think of something, lowered her head and took out a piece of jade from her sleeve.

"By the way, patriarch, sister Zhaoge asked me to return it to you."

Zijing was stunned for a moment, then took the jade pendant.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked the golden carved dragon on the jade pendant with his fingertips, smiled bitterly after a long time, and murmured:
"In the end, I didn't send it out after all..."

Xiao Yao blinked, although she didn't understand why the patriarch was in a bad mood, but she knew that it was better not to ask about some things.

Everyone has their own little secrets, even the Patriarch is no exception.

Everyone said that the former saintess had died in the forbidden land, but I saw with my own eyes in the patriarch's secret room that the parasitic candle belonging to sister Zhaoge had not been completely extinguished.

The candle is not extinguished, but the people are still alive.

But the patriarch did not send anyone to look for it, and even sealed the candle at the bottom of the lake so that other clansmen would not know about it.

Hearing that the elder brother had left the forbidden area, he dispatched soldiers and returned to Qiguo. He left in such a hurry, but he didn't know if he knew that Zhaoge's sister was still alive.
