Chapter 589

"By the way, do you know that in the early morning of this morning, a thunderbolt struck the alchemist's mansion."

"Ah, how could such a thing happen?"

"It is said that when some miraculous medicines are born, they will stimulate the gods of thunder and fire in the sky. From this point of view, it is indeed true."

"I see."

People in the world, from princes and ministers to the common people at dawn, who doesn't want to live forever and shine with the sun and the moon.

The ministers below were discussing immediately, and everyone's eyes were invariably focused on the elixir of life in the hands of the Witch King.

"Aiqing, this elixir really has the effect of making people live forever." The witch king gently twisted the elixir in his hands, a little in disbelief.

Li Xiao's eyes flickered brightly, and he couldn't help but smiled and said, "The Witch King only needs to try it to know how effective this elixir is."

……

……

After the deliberations were over, all the officials left the palace, and the Witch King, after accepting the audience of all the officials, felt a little tired after dealing with the affairs of the day, so he left the main hall and returned to his bedroom.

"Is this elixir really so miraculous?" The Witch King looked at the elixir in his hand, and the look in his eyes became more and more intense.

After hesitating for a while, the Witch King swallowed the pill. When the pill entered the mouth, the Witch King only felt a warm current rushing to his limbs, like a factor of vitality. The meridians are galloping happily, like floating in the clouds, indescribably comfortable and carefree.

"This elixir is really extraordinary."

When this extremely comfortable feeling swept his whole body, the Witch King exhaled a long mouthful of turbid air, as if the depression that had been pent up for a long time had also left his body.

The current Witch King only feels that his body is much lighter, and because of his overworked pale face, there is also a hint of rosy luster, because some fatigue from going to court seems to have been swept away, the whole body People's whole body is full of vitality.

At this time, the Witch King couldn't help but groaned happily. Soon, he realized his gaffe, and after looking around, he found that there was no one else in the corridor. Take it easy.

After turning a few turns in the long and winding corridor, the Witch King came to the Princess Mansion, where the Princess lived.

……

……

Princess House.

Zhao Ling'er rested her fragrant cheeks in her hands, and with a pair of agile eyes, looked at the big locust tree with luxuriant branches and leaves outside the house through the window lattice, and couldn't help but secretly startled.

I don't know why, when I came back from the garden today, I couldn't get rid of the figure of the big brother, the appearance of the sword-browed and star-eyed, the vigorous and elegant figure when he rescued her, and the indifferent look on him. The demeanor like dust, and the smirk on the corner of his mouth, are so unforgettable.

After thinking of what the big brother said last, Zhao Linger blushed immediately, she was so shy, she bit her lip lightly, and murmured softly: "Zhao Linger, what is going on in your brain?" What are you thinking, grandma said that men who talk sweet words are not to be trusted."

However, even though she said so, her heart was still throbbing inexplicably.

At this time, she heard footsteps at the door, she looked up quickly, and said happily, "Father, you have returned from court."

"Ling'er, what were you talking to yourself just now?" The Witch King stepped in from the outside and said with a gentle smile. On the court, he may be a majestic monarch, but in front of children However, the majesty on his face was gone, and it was full of love and affection.

Zhao Ling'er blushed, and quickly shook her head to hide the panic in her heart: "No, I didn't say anything..."

As the monarch of a country, the Witch King is naturally good at observing words and expressions, so how could the strange look in his daughter's eyes escape his eyes?

……

……

However, the Witch King naturally didn't expose Zhao Ling'er's small thoughts, but gave a doting smile. Immediately, he also noticed the scroll under his daughter's arm.

"Ling'er, who is that pictured on your scroll?"

The Witch King raised his eyebrows slightly, and said curiously. On the scroll, there was a tall man dressed in white clothes. Through the childish brushstrokes, the outline of the character's face, sword eyebrows and star eyes could be vaguely seen. It looks very heroic, but not overwhelming.

"Well... this is a big brother I met in the palace" Zhao Ling'er whispered.

For some reason, the Witch King looked at the figure in the painting and felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.

However, this did not prevent the Witch King from admiring Ling'er's painting skills. He touched Ling'er's little head affectionately, nodded and praised in a timely manner: "This painting is not bad, if you can put in a little more effort , you will be able to have both manners.”

After finishing speaking, the Witch King took another look at Ling'er, who was becoming more and more lovely and charming, with a dazed expression: "In the blink of an eye, Ling'er is already in the year of the golden hairpin, and it is not appropriate to stay in the palace and boudoir all the time. With the skill and knowledge, women in the Central Plains pay attention to learning piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and flower tea from an early age."

Speaking of this, the Witch King's expression changed and he said: "Ling'er, why don't I send the Taifu in the palace to teach you knowledge?"

Zhao Linger couldn't help sticking out her tongue when she heard the words, and said unwillingly: "Those Taifu are very strict, and they like to put on a straight face, Linger doesn't like it..."

After thinking about it, the Witch King couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly. Indeed, most of the grand tutors in the palace were old men in their sixties, and the way of teaching was also according to the scriptures. It is very profound.

"Who does Ling'er want to teach you?" the Witch King asked.

Zhao Ling'er thought for a while, a flash of light flashed in her mind, she pointed at the scroll on the table with her slender fingers, and said, "Ling'er wants him to teach knowledge."

"If the father's guess is correct, this person should be Li Fangshi." At this time, the witch king also cast his eyes on the picture scroll again.Just now when he saw the characters in the painting for the first time, he just felt a little familiar, but this time he carefully observed the expressions of the characters in the painting, and after concentrating on identifying them, he immediately recognized that the person in the painting was the alchemist Li Xiao .

"It turns out that he is Li Xiao, the well-known alchemist." Zhao Ling'er's eyes flickered, and she silently wrote down the name.

"Ling'er, don't mess around. This Li Fangshi is a great hero in Nanzhao. He not only refines elixir, cures diseases and saves people, but also shoulders the responsibility of controlling epidemics in Nanzhao. He has a heavy responsibility, how can he add more to him? What's the trouble?" The Witch King's face sank slightly, pretending to scold lightly.
