[Ancient Sword 2] The city lord's counterattack in the second week

In the eyes of ordinary people in the city, it is not a big deal for Ms. Cangming to have a little girl beside her.Don't you see, the future high priest Shen Ye is followed by a little girl Huayue, so it's not surprising that the city lord finds a little girl to play with his daughter.

After hearing the gossip from Huayue, Shen Ye also wanted to find out the origin of the girl who received Cangming's green eyes, so she made an excuse and went out to the City Lord's Mansion.

"A Ye, have you been free recently?"

The sun was fine today, Cang Ming finished signing the official document, and went to the courtyard to bask in the sun, and asked Ze Lan to carry Jiang Qi out by the way.Cangming stretched out his hand and pinched the future apprentice's face, and let her run around in the courtyard to have fun.

"How do you know I'm bored?"

When he remembered that there were piles of documents and various middle-level spells and high-level spells waiting for him in the temple, Shen Ye felt that his future was hopeless. .”

"When I'm like you, run out to play before finishing things~"

Shen Ye snorted and turned his face away: "Anyway, I can definitely finish it today!"

Just as he was about to make fun of Shen Ye for talking big, in a blink of an eye he saw that Jiang Qi had come back from running around, his sideburns were covered in sweat, and Cang Ming, ignoring his friend on the other side, picked up the little girl and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief.

"Isn't Zelan still taking care of you? Such a small child, you can't be of much use if you stay by your side, and you have to take care of it. How troublesome."

"A Ye, you're overthinking." Cangming gave Shen Ye a white look, "Xiao Qi will be the first disciple of Cangming City Lord in the future!"

Shen Ye almost burst out laughing: "What else can you do besides spells? This girl has no spiritual power. Are you going to teach her to help you correct official documents in the future?"

"Hmph, I, Cangming's disciple, will be No. 1 in Liuyue City's fencing in the future~"

"Just like her? Don't be kidding," Shen Ye stretched out his finger and poked the little girl's bun face while talking, "Such a little girl, I can beat her with one finger—hiss, it hurts, it hurts!" pain!!!!!"

Although he was young and couldn't even speak completely, Jiang Qi could still understand the good and bad things others said.

Looking at the fierce little girl holding Shen Ye's finger in her mouth, Cangming thought to herself, could she be taking revenge for Shen Ye's confiscated script and deducting her salary in her previous life?

Well, speaking of the script, I don't know when Hongxiu Tianxiang was born...

Cangming, who started to diverge his thoughts, completely ignored Shen Ye's distorted expression of aggrieved expression, until Zelan heard that the voice was wrong.He ran over to check, and then rescued Shen Ye's finger that was almost bitten off.

"Xiao Qi did a good job!" Cang Ming pinched his soft, round and tender bun face with a smile, "Come on, call Master to listen~"

"...Master, it's wet..." This is the little bun Jiang Qi whose teeth are numb from biting his fingers for a long time.

"Hey, but don't bite the unknown and unclean things in the future, or you will have diarrhea."

"Hmm~" Xiao Baozi nodded, biting his tongue while talking, his pronunciation was a little vague, with a bit of nasal sound, "I listen, it's wet!"

Shen Ye, who was ignored, broke out: "Hey! Where am I dirty?!"

"You..." Cangming glanced at him lightly, "Have you washed your hands?"

"..."

In his heart, Shen Ye believed that Cangming taught the bad girl to bully him together, swallowing his tears with pain, and decided that he must take in a good apprentice in the future to regain his position.

Having said that, he has bad intentions at such a young age, and he must be a brat in the future!Little girl or something, my own Xiao Xi is the cutest!

A year later, City Master Zhaoyu suddenly fell ill.

From the high priest who heard the news, Cang Ming learned that during the period when he was seriously ill, his father also suffered from a serious illness, but he was worried about his illness and kept it hidden.Later, when he recovered from his illness, his father had to bother to train him to become the next city lord, but he didn't want to let himself be distracted by knowing about it...

"...Then, where is the blood?!" She grabbed her sleeves tightly, trying her best not to look so flustered, "I was so sick back then, so it's not the same..."

The high priest shook his head slowly. Although his face was covered by a mask, there was still a hint of sadness from the corners of his lips.

"...The city lord is old now, and I'm afraid he won't be able to bear the burning pain of divine blood..."

Moreover, the power of the divine blood is about to be exhausted now, and it can only last for more than a hundred years at most. If you use it more, the jumu will wither earlier... The city lord, I don't want to do this...

The high priest did not say this sentence, but with Cang Ming's understanding of Zhao Yu, it is not difficult to imagine.

"Then... Father, how much time does he have?"

This time, it was Tong who had just come out of Zhaoyu's bedroom who answered Cangming: "At most, it can last for three years."

Three years... Heh, isn't that the same time as when his father died in his previous life...

Cangming still remembers that at that time, his father collapsed without warning, and he was devastated because of it. Before his father's funeral was over, his old illness relapsed and he entered the core of Jumu for the second time. Since then, he has never been able to leave Jumu again. live.

"This matter... I would like to ask you to conceal one or two things on your behalf, and you must not cause the city residents to worry and panic..."

All kinds of thoughts flashed across his mind instantly, and when he spoke again, Cangming had already made a decision.

"The big and small affairs in the hands of my father before, I will take over from today onwards, and externally... I will still follow the lead of the Lord Zhaoyu."

"Miss Cangming, this is to..." The high priest thought for a while and understood what she meant, "Hiding up the city lord's illness to avoid trouble?"

Cangming nodded: "If my father only has three years to live... at least, before that, I must be prepared. In the city lord's mansion, I can still suppress the news. In the city and the temple, there is the High Priest Lao gone."

The implication is that, as acting city lord, he will take over all the affairs in Zhaoyu's hands, and complete the handover of the old and new city lords within three years.

The high priest thought for a while, in fact, several years ago, the city lord Zhaoyu had already hinted at this idea, but he hadn't informed Cangming yet... Now it seems that it is really a tiger father without a dog daughter.

"Subordinates... obey the orders of the city lord."

After seeing off the group of people who came to visit the doctor, looking at the mess left by his father, Cangming sighed silently: I really can't afford to deal with official documents...

Walking to the courtyard, Jiang Qi was playing with Zelan on the flower rope. After a few rounds, the little girl's fingers were tied by the flower rope.

That's right, Jiang Qi was born ahead of schedule, and he was born in Liuyue City. Maybe in this life, his father and himself will have different endings?

While thinking about it, Cang Ming waved his hand, bent down, and caught the little bun who rushed towards him.It seems that the two shared the seal of the butterfly in the previous life and had that kind of vague connection. Although Jiang Qi is not sensible, he is very clingy.

"Ze Lan, you know the situation of my father. These days, I'm afraid I don't have the energy to take care of this child... If you are free some other day, send her home..."

Before Zelan could react, Jiang Qi had already grabbed Cangming's sleeve, his voice softly bewildered.

"...It's wet... No, Xiaoqi?"

Cangming laughed dumbly: "How could it be? But Master is very busy now and has no time to teach Xiao Qi. When Master is done with these days, he will bring Xiao Qi back... Besides, doesn't Xiao Qi miss home?"

"I think!" Xiao Baozi nodded, "But Dad said, make Xiao Qi obedient..."

"So~" Cang Ming poked the swollen bun's face with his finger, "Now you have to listen to what Master says."

In the afternoon of the same day, Jiang Lu, a foundry master who lives in the north of the city, received an expedited express letter from the City Lord's Mansion, with his own daughter attached to the letter.

After reading Cangming's handwritten letter, Jiang Lu learned that his daughter would be the disciple of the city lord in the future, so he continued to keep a low profile with great interest, and began to ponder in private whether he should lay a foundation for his daughter first.

And Jiang Qi, who was sitting in his father's casting room listening to the sound of iron strikes, didn't know at this time that what awaited him would be a miserable preschool education.

The author has something to say: This time, Jiang Qi's family education is not embroidery but casting. It is said that this is the rhythm of Xiuniang turning to the second lady in anger?

It means that the real Junluo who is tough on the outside and soft on the inside is my favorite o(*////▽////*)q likes to rely on the master to be cute and call it wet【←_←
