Chapter 98 Angry Honest Man

There are actually very few people who are in the Saint King realm at the age of 22. They are only a handful of masters in the entire Southern Dynasty Tianchen.

Although Lu Shangque came from a humble background and was once a domestic slave of the Xie family in Xunyang, he had long been granted freedom by Princess Tianchen.

Now his old master Princess Tianchen has become the only "Sword Immortal" in the world today. Together with her senior brother "Shentai Priest" Nanxu and Donglin City's "Breaking Sea Sword Immortal" Li Pinglan, they are also known as the three most powerful immortals in the world. Realm master—with such a hard-core relationship, who would dare to mention his humble origins as a domestic slave?

How glorious is the sword attendant of the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal"?

Not to mention that Lu Shangque is now a free sword servant, even if he is a sword slave held by the "Sword Immortal" and sold out, it is definitely not something to be ashamed of.

——Of course, the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" is not delicate, and he has not had the habit of calling for slaves since he was a child. Over the years, it seems that except for the shadow-like Master Sword Master Lu, he has never needed the close care and attention of slaves.

In addition, Lu Shangque has a prudent character, is calm, and is not bad looking.It is only natural that some aristocratic families would invest in him as a young talent with great potential.

Fu Jingci felt embarrassed when he saw Lu Shangque being teased. He immediately clicked his tongue and looked at him in disbelief and said:

"Little bird, what's so embarrassing about this? You're already 22 years old. You should have gotten married a long time ago. The man next to you would run around with a small wooden sword at your age. Are you still planning to get married? To be a cold and uninhibited priest like Nanxu, who never marries for the rest of his life?"

Yes, most of the priests in the Shentai Palace can actually get married, and there is nothing wrong with that - except for the high priest.

Because once the high priest gets married and has distracting thoughts, the most metaphysical art of divination, which can predict a certain segment of the future, is very likely to go wrong and no longer be effective.

Although it is said that the divination skills of the high priest of Shentai Palace come at the cost of lifespan, and if used too much, life will be shortened. But what kind of high priest is a high priest who is not very proficient in divination?How can he be worthy of a great national master who knows the fate of heaven?

Therefore, the high priests of the Shentai Palace almost always served the gods all their lives, performed astrology and divination, and never married.

Of course, the Orange Hui kid really couldn't participate in a conversation between adults like talking about marriage, and no one took him to "play" with it.

So, he tilted his head thoughtfully to the left to look at the goddess, and then tilted his head to the right to look at the road-scarred sparrow. He obediently acted like a saw-mouthed gourd with his eyes and nose, and he knew what was going on and stopped talking.

".Your Highness."

Lu Shangque helplessly looked at the girl in front of him who was full of interest and her eyes were shining.

In fact, no one understands His Highness's temperament better than him. She is a little girl who loves excitement and fireworks at heart.

However, for most of her life, she was either in the cold and lonely Shentai Palace and the high tower temple, or in dangerous places with huge waves in the snow-capped mountains and deserts, where she rarely saw people or people of her own age.So even though she was born into a noble family and was extremely talented, those ordinary things within reach of ordinary people turned out to be rare things that were beyond her reach.

She likes excitement so much, and she also likes those tacky and mediocre parents who are short-lived.

A few days ago, when he was stopped by some young men from the imperial army who took advantage of their official duties to give him brocade handkerchiefs for his sisters at home, he clearly remembered that there was no one else around, but he was unexpectedly bumped into by his highness.

So he answered very frankly:
"Your Highness, I have no intention of getting married, and I have no intention of accepting the brocade handkerchiefs and purses from the ladies of the young men's families."

Oh open?

Fu Jingci's eyes are full of light.

At that time, she was passing by and very far away, and she didn't want to inquire into Lu Shangque's private affairs, so she couldn't see clearly at first glance, and could only vaguely see the brocade handkerchief delivered by one party.

It turns out that there is still a wallet?

wrong!

She caught the key point again. The key point was that he had returned all of them!

Fu Jingci frowned in confusion.

"You don't want to get married? Why, little bird? I remember when we were young, we made a wish together for the first time in the Shentai Palace during the Chinese New Year! Didn't you say at that time that your wish was to grow up as soon as possible and have Your own family?
——In this case, when you get married, you have your own wife, and you will have your own children in the future, so don’t you have a family?What, you changed your mind? "

Lu Shangque looked at the girl expressionlessly, dumbfounded for a moment.

"Your Highness, you seemed to be only three years old at that time."

"What happened to three years old?"

Fu Jingci disagrees.

"I have a photographic memory since I was a child. I will remember a lot of things when I become sensible. Don't try to fool me! Besides, although I was still young at that time, you were not young at that time." This is true.

The first year when Fu Jingci first entered the Shentai Palace at the age of three, Lu Shangque was actually 11 years old. That was also the first year that he stayed with Fu Jingci, and he was about the same age as Cheng Hui now.

Cheng Hui immediately nodded affirmatively, admitting that his goddess was right.

——11 years old is indeed not too young, he is already an "adult".It seems that Brother Lu was also an "adult" back then, and his words should count for his words.

Lu Shangque looked calm and replied with a good temper, "I have already found my family now. Your Highness, you are my family. We have agreed to get married. There is no rush."

In his heart, the master is his family, or even the "parent".

Fu Jingci was stunned, and was speechless for a moment.

"Uh"

She scratched her head and first expressed her approval of Lu Shangque's idea.

"——We are brothers and sisters, so naturally we are a family!"

Then she tried to understand his true inner thoughts.

"But, I think getting married is another matter! Even if you get married and have your own beloved wife and children, we are still family, and there will be more people who love you together. Isn't that good? ?”

Lu Shangque answered very simply and honestly, "No. And, with all due respect, Your Highness, you are only 14 years old."

It is obvious that I am a child who is half-grown.

Fu Jingci was dumbfounded.

"What's wrong?"

No, what happened to her being fourteen?
Besides, she has a lot of family members, including Little Bird, her mother, her younger brother, her maternal grandfather and uncles, her master and Nanxu, and even her father!

But as for the little bird, she has no family except her. How lonely she is!
What if she died one day, wouldn't the little bird have no family at all?
Fu Jingci didn't hold his tongue for a moment, and subconsciously revealed what he was thinking.

Who would have thought that Lu Shangque would actually get angry.
His face, which had always been expressionless, turned livid in an instant, and his eyes, which seemed to be filled with fiery anger, suddenly shot towards her, startling Fu Jingci, who almost had the instinct to run away!

Her little bird has never looked at her with such shocked and angry eyes, so that Her Royal Highness Princess Tianchen, who has been a lawless and arrogant "mountain king" since she was a child, almost dare not speak.

There is still a little bit of grievance.

"What, what's wrong? I'm telling the truth. As a human being, you will always die."

Just like her mentor, High Priest Feng Zhi, just like her grandfather and uncles who once lifted her above their heads, just like her mother-in-law Xie Wan.

Even if you cannot accept it at first, you will have to accept it in the future. No one, no matter whether you are a wealthy person or a trafficker, is immune to this process.

Although a master with a high level of martial arts, if he can die at the end of his life, his life span will be much longer than that of ordinary people.However, among the martial arts masters over the past thousands of years, very few have died.

What exception is she?
Lu Shangque looked at her for a moment and said through clenched teeth, "Your Highness is only 14 years old. Talking about life and death is very unlucky. Please don't say it again in the future."

Then he turned around and strode away.

Fu Jingci stared blankly at the honest man who never had a bad temper in front of her. He actually got so angry this time that he couldn't react for a while.

The back of Master Sword Attendant Huhufeng was filled with resentment and anger as if he was avoiding strangers, as if he was afraid that if he walked a step too slowly, he would be disrespectful to her and offend his benefactor. have to.

The Thousand Years Sword Immortal first looked at the figure of Lu Shangque who disappeared in a blink of an eye, and then turned to look blankly at the young Taoist boy Cheng Hui who looked up at her in silence.

"I-I didn't say anything, did he? He is so angry?"

So angry that he ran away and didn't even accompany her to today's night banquet?

Don't say it, don't say it!It's rare for an honest person to get angry. It's really scary!
