Chapter 30
This glance was misunderstood by Guan Jiu.

"After all, I'm still your uncle." Guan Jiu looked at Zhao Jinglan, but seemed to be looking at someone else through her, "Your master advised me not to get into trouble in the world. Now he thinks that I have a high position and wants to come with me." Get a share of the pie?”

"National teacher, did you recognize the wrong person?" Zhao Jinglan said.

"Nephew, it was my fault to write your name on the list of sacrifices to heaven, but you shouldn't have attacked Shangguan Yun'er." Guan Jiu folded his hands in his sleeves, feeling extremely oppressive, "She is what your master said Daughter of Destiny. I am also doing this for the sake of all the people of the Miao Kingdom. If you really target her and she is damaged, our national line of the Miao Kingdom will be damaged."

Thinking that Zhao Jinglan was angry about offering sacrifices to heaven, Guan Jiu had no choice but to explain clearly to Zhao Jinglan.

Zhao Jinglan: "Understood, can Master Guoshi make way?"

Having said that, even if Jing Lan understands that the other party has a thousand or ten thousand reasons, she still cannot understand that the other party does not regard human life as a life.

If there were no accidents, 49 girls, including Zhao Jinglan, would have lost their lives that day.

And all of this is just Guan Jiu's sentence: "Human sacrifice is needed." That's all.

In fact, there will be rain without human sacrifice, but Guan Jiu chooses to use human sacrifice to resist all the disadvantages against him from outside.

Use the lives of the poor in their mouths.

Jing Lan said that the original owner did it on her own, but it doesn't mean that she is so magnanimous that she can forgive the other party.

What's more, Guan Jiu stopped Zhao Jinglan now, not because he felt guilty.

"Nephew, since you decided to be like me, you have a bad temper." Guan Jiu sighed, patted Zhao Jinglan on the shoulder, and disappeared.

Arriving at the office smoothly, Eunuch Gao was waiting for her at the door: "Hey, Goddess Zhao, you're here."

Compared with before, Eunuch Gao's attitude towards Zhao Jinglan is really different.

Zhao Jinglan saluted: "Eunuch Gao."

"Come with us, the emperor is waiting to see you."

She looked up and saw Eunuch Gao's benevolent look, and shivered. The faces of colleagues who came earlier no longer had the previous disdain and arrogance, and were replaced by flattery and flattery.

Zhao Jinglan is not guilty, because the power of science is so powerful.

Unexpectedly, besides the emperor, there was also a beautiful woman with bright and white teeth in the house.

She was really beautiful, so beautiful that it was as if the surroundings were really glowing.

So beautiful that Zhao Jinglan couldn't help thinking that with such a beauty, the emperor could still see other women in his eyes?

Almost immediately, Zhao Jinglan knew who this beautiful woman was.

"My minister greets His Majesty, and Mrs. Zhang Guifei."

"Exemption."

After a while, Concubine Zhang's soft voice sounded. It is no exaggeration to say that the moment she heard Concubine Zhang's voice, Zhao Jinglan felt as if she was in a hot spring, feeling warm and smiling involuntarily.

Fortunately, Zhao Jinglan still had some self-control, so she didn't laugh like a fool.

However, the other party smiled unhappily at Zhao Jinglan, and Zhao Jinglan immediately followed suit.

Concubine Zhang was satisfied.

"Hey, Zhao Aiqing." The emperor said, "Since you can ask for rain, you can take on the role of the national teacher just like the national teacher."

"Your Majesty! Is this too hasty?" Eunuch Gao's face turned pale.

"Why not?" The emperor said displeased, "The imperial concubine has agreed to this matter, there is nothing wrong with it."

The smile of Concubine Zhang next to her stayed for a second, and then she smiled again.

Therefore, as soon as Zhao Jinglan entered the palace, he was promoted again when he left the palace.

The position second only to the Imperial Preceptor: Grand Sacrificial Wine.

Her office area was also moved from a small room to the building next to the National Teacher.

When Zhao Jinglan went back to get her own things, she heard her colleagues gossip: "I knew Zhao Jinglan was capable, how could I target her?"

"However, her strength is indeed inferior to that of the national teacher. We didn't expect her to beg for rain, which is normal."

"Hey, she succeeded in begging for rain at this time, and it's a little more difficult to get close again."

"Hmph, what's the point? She's a woman who shows her face like this either for the sake of power or to marry a good family. You see, she and the national teacher are close to each other, when the time comes... huh? Hehe"

Zhao Jinglan stepped harder, moved things away, and couldn't help reminding before leaving: "It's better to talk less about right and wrong in the palace."

"Yes, Zhao Jijiu is right." They broke out in cold sweat.

"Hmph, what's the big deal? If I have the same inspiration as her, I can do better than her!" the whispering voice couldn't help but say.

"Don't say it, don't say it." The others quickly covered his mouth.

Now Zhao Jinglan is a big sacrificial wine, much more than their officials.

Zhao Jinglan also reminded, if they listen to it, it's fine, if they don't listen to it, they will cause trouble. Others are different from Zhao Jinglan. They don't think that human life is at stake, and a human life is very precious.

From time to time along the way, people who recognized Zhao Jinglan greeted Zhao Jinglan respectfully.

Zhao Jinglan didn't show any signs of impatience or pride, and responded to the other party as usual.

In this way, it made everyone take a high look.

As soon as she got home, she found that the house had completely changed.

Although the previous house occupied a wide area and Zhao Jinglan even grew vegetables, it was no different from a run-down house.

After all, it is full of ghosts and has no popularity.

But in just one day, the house changed its appearance.

Not only has it become clean and tidy, but the broken places have also been neatly repaired.

Even Jing Lan's vegetables are taken care of carefully.

The fifteen beauties saw that Zhao Jinglan had returned, except for Liniang, they all greeted each other one by one, they almost treated Jinglan as the head of the family.

Li Niang coughed lightly, and someone helped Zhao Jinglan carry the things in her hands, and someone came back with food. Although it wasn't much money, they also ordered three dishes and one soup.

Persuading Zhao Jinglan to eat vegetables: "Eat more, our Xiaoqing's cooking skills are really not boastful!"

Zhao Jinglan also took off his chopsticks without hesitation, without any pause.

This made everyone's smiles a little more sincere. Afraid that Zhao Jinglan would be overwhelmed, he even went out of his way to explain: "This is made with human fireworks, it's not a cover-up."

Jing Lan didn't speak, but gave a thumbs up.

After eating, a group of people took a rest in the yard, and then asked: "But someone broke in last night?"

"That's right," Xiao Ke held his head and combed it carefully, "He's still a brat that I can't compare to."

"..." Looks like it was Guan Jiuxia's hand, no wonder he found me today.

"What about that ghost?"

"I was eaten." Xiao Ke said, erecting his chest.

"Xiao Ke, why are you eating indiscriminately?" She reprimanded her pretendingly, and the other beauties pleaded for Xiao Ke: "Xiao Ke, she didn't do it on purpose, sir, don't blame her."

"Well done, Xiao Ke." Zhao Jinglan conjured up a few sticks of incense like a magic trick, "This is a gift for you."

"Why would I blame Xiao Ke? You are protecting me. Even if the people who come here don't want my life, they want to harm me. You are all protecting me!" Zhao Jinglan accused with a heartbroken surface: "I thought We are friends, we are family.”

"friend?"

"Dear?"

The female ghosts looked at each other again, as if they had made up their minds, "That's right. We are all relatives."
