Chapter 97
"Father won't let me go, but the fire pocket is still under there, so I'll go one last time."

"I definitely can't go now, and I can't go at night. There are night watchmen at night, so don't be caught as robbers! It's just right after dinner, before going to bed, when the sky is a little dark. There should be time to go back, hurry up." It won't be discovered at all."

Zhou Xun obediently went back to his own yard. He also has his own small yard, a single-door courtyard, and his own small study, where he usually studies.

Back in his yard, he ordered the servants in his yard to close the gate tightly.

"I'm going to study later, call me again at mealtime."

Naturally, the servants did not dare to disturb the young master's study, and would try to stay away from this area even when doing things.

It has become a consensus that the young master doesn't like to be disturbed when he is studying.

On the other side, Zhou Gui was watching peach blossoms in the garden.

Petal peach blossoms are in full bloom on the branches, and they are fragrant. There is a shallow canal under the tree, passing through this yard, it attracts the clear water source of the underground spring.

The location of the Zhou Family Courtyard is excellent. It hides the wind and collects the water. The layout is neither big nor small.

Zhou Gui was wearing a blue Confucian robe. Under the tree, he saw the spring water flowing through the small canal, winding and twisting. From time to time, some pink petals were blown by the breeze and floated on the surface of the water, letting the spring water carry it forward. wandering.

He didn't say a word, just looked at, beside him and on the ground, there was a layer of petals, and the petals from more than a dozen peach trees as tall as two people were everywhere in the paved yard.

He was silent for a while, there were some flower petals on his shoulders and on his head, but he didn't realize it.

After a long time, he sighed.

Ning Shi had noticed her husband's strangeness a long time ago, knowing that he probably thought of something, she stepped forward and put a cloak on her husband.

"Still thinking about Dragon Girl? Why, is this regret?"

Ning made fun of her husband.

Zhou Gui shook his head.

"Where can it be? I'm thinking of that rainy night ten years ago."

He seemed to be lost in memory, and his face was still a little dazed.

"That night, I can't forget it either! It rained so heavily, the water was three feet deep, and it flooded up to my ankles! There hasn't been such a heavy rain in decades! You were wearing a single suit and fell at the door of your house. It's blood, his face is as white as flour, and he has no human form..."

"At that time, I was also frightened. I lost my head and dragged you into the boudoir of my daughter's house..."

Ning gently nestled in her husband's arms, thinking about the long-lasting memories.

"At that time, you were holding a broken kettle. I don't know what it was made of. It was pitch black. You just refused to let go of it, and you couldn't move it no matter what."

"That's not a kettle, it's a magic weapon used by Taoists to keep demons. I risked my life to bring out the only thing from the Dragon Palace. How can I let go?"

"Yeah, you snatched a dragon girl back, but what's the use of it? What's the use of Fengshui treasures, which can ward off evil spirits and secure the house, and bring good fortune. It's been ten years, but I haven't seen it."

"It's been ten years before I know it..."

Zhou Gui sighed, holding his wife's hand in both hands, and staring affectionately.

Ning evaded, feeling that her husband's eyes at this moment were really startling.

"what happened?"

"Fu'er, in the past when you asked me about this matter, I avoided talking about it. Now it's time to tell you the inside story."

Ning asked curiously.

"Aren't you unwilling to say it? If it's really inconvenient, then don't say it."

"No, it's fine to say it now."

Zhou Gui paid attention to the movement around, there was nothing to cover the surroundings, and the servants did not dare to disturb the relationship between the main family and the husband and wife, and they were sent away by Ning from a distance.

As soon as he exerted force on his hand, Ning Shi let out a scream and was embraced in his arms.

Zhou Gui whispered in his wife's ear.

"Back then, the one I brought back from the Dragon Palace was the granddaughter of the Dragon King of Qinghe—Princess Yongjian."

When she said the last four words, her voice was too low to be heard, but it sounded like thunder to Ning's ears.

"How dare you do something like this? This is really—"

Ning was startled and angry. This kind of thing is like openly confronting the Heavenly Court, the imperial court and Shinto.

"No hurry, no hurry..."

Zhou Gui just smiled and watched his wife pretending to be teeth and claws, happy to see the joke.

When she got tired of anger, she opened her mouth to explain.

"It's true that Dragon Palace has committed a crime, but it's just the Qinghe Dragon King, so it doesn't have to be the case... otherwise the Dragon Clan would not agree."

"Afterwards, I secretly inquired about the Qinghe Dragon King, and I guessed it piecemeal. But that's all in the past. Today, the great treasure has been inherited, the fame is gradually becoming stable, and the authority is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At this time, the turmoil has long passed , who will turn over the old score? It also depends on the meaning of the Dragon Clan!"

"The Dragon King of Qinghe is actually a silver dragon. He is the bastard son of the Dragon King of the South China Sea. He was not loved. He was sent out early to serve as a priest in Qinghe. He didn't know the depth. What it is, I have no way of knowing, and of course it doesn't matter."

"You see, ten years ago I took the risk and brought back the granddaughter of the Dragon King. Although it was a big mistake at the beginning, it may not be so now. There has never been a rule in the imperial court. If there is no prohibition, it will not be prosecuted, let alone the people who were present at the time. They are almost dead, who cares about a once down-and-out little scholar? Even if there is, now I am not the well-known humble student who used to be... Ha, I am a 'celebrity'!"

When he said the word "famous scholar", he couldn't understand what he meant, so he unconsciously exerted a little force on his hand. Ning Shi realized this, and held her husband's hands instead.

"Of course, the will of the Heavenly Court is true, but it is only the decree of demotion. How can it control the life and death of a little dragon grandson? It seems terrible, but in fact, this is the last thing to worry about."

"As for the Shinto aspect you mentioned, I don't think you need to care about it. The Qinghe River is four hundred miles long and flows through several counties. The grandson of the dragon living outside?"

Zhou Gui talks in style, and he is quite a bit of a scholarly and scholarly spirit who points out the country.

"Princess Yongjian..."

Zhou Gui's tone was sarcastic and sharp.

"When the Dragon King of Qinghe is here, she is the princess. If the Dragon King is not here, who will recognize her priesthood?"

"It should be noted that although Yongjian is not big, it is still ten miles long. There are more than a dozen villages along the coast, and there are tens of thousands of believers. This foundation is not small. I am afraid that Yongjian's position as the water god has been taken over these years. Will you let her?"

After Zhou Gui said this, he still didn't say what he meant. Why did he take such a huge risk to bring back the grandson of the dragon.

"Now, you guessed it?"

He lowered his head and kissed his wife's smooth forehead.

Ning smiled and spoke.

"I think it has something to do with the running water in the garden. Could it be that it's really a Fengshui town thing, isn't there something wrong?"

"The promise I made with someone back then was not just a mere spring!"

"What I want is the 20-[-]-year Universiade! What I want is the three generations of ministers! Listed as the prefect!"

"I took the risk, narrowly escaped death, and fled for dozens of miles, just for this!"

"The blood of a real dragon can rejuvenate wind and rain, and can change Fengshui. This dragon girl inherited her talent, so she can naturally change the underground waterway for my family, shape the dragon veins, and greatly increase the energy. This is the technique of invigorating the dragon's lair above Fengshui!"

"Although this acquired feng shui pattern is limited, and the dragon's veins are weak in foundation and stamina, it can still protect my family for 20 years. Three generations of bruises, great luck and good fortune! The Zhou family will definitely be able to use this to soar into the sky, and after three generations, it will definitely be listed as a county. Hope, deep roots, become a real family!"

"This is why I dare to risk my life! Otherwise, if it's not because of relatives, who can fight so hard?"

There was a thunderclap in the air, and a thunderbolt flashed, and then, the patter of raindrops fell, drenching the two people in the garden.

 Zhou Gui can be described as a real man, who dares to fight hard, is bold and can deceive the sky!
