It's hard to guess the concubine: the black-bellied prince chases his wife

Chapter 643
"Kneel down!" The high priest's tone was sharp, and he looked at Zhong Lici with a bit of viciousness in his eyes, "Now that you have grown up, don't you dare to go out without obeying my order?!"

Kneeling in front of the moon god statue, Xiao Zhonglici had the urge to escape here for the first time.He didn't understand why he had to be treated like this.He didn't understand why he and his mother couldn't be together every day like Yu Muheng and his concubine mother.

But he didn't say anything, and knelt quietly in front of the moon god statue as usual to "admit his mistake".

When the first whip hit Xiao Zhongli Ci, he didn't even move.But Priest Qinglong couldn't hold back after all.

He took a step forward, stopped the high priest's whip, knelt beside Xiao Zhonglici, and clasped his fists at the high priest: "This subordinate let him go, don't blame him."

With Priest Qinglong's explanation, the High Priest put down the whip in his hand and looked at Priest Qinglong suspiciously: "What do you want him to do there? When did you start covering up a slave like this?"

The high priest's suspicious eyes did not make Priest Qinglong flinch in the slightest. He still held his fists and lowered his head, his tone was as calm as before: "It's my subordinate's turn to be in charge of the sacrificial garden these few days..."

Snapped!
The high priest slapped the Azure Dragon Priest's face heavily, and his eyes became more vicious and sharp: "You are now the Azure Dragon Priest, but you are becoming more and more useless! Is this how you serve the Moon God?! That priest Don’t you know who is buried in the garden? Aren’t you afraid that the moon god will punish you for letting a slave clean it?!”

Receiving the slap abruptly, Priest Qinglong didn't even shake his figure.He bowed his head.He just clasped his fists at the high priest: "This subordinate knows his mistake."

"Hmph—" the high priest snorted coldly, "It's the omission you accused, so you can kneel here and confess to the moon god all night! I think you know better than me how to punish yourself!"

Then he turned his head to Zhong Lici who didn't say a word, his eyes were filled with a different kind of haze: "As for you - you still cannot escape the guilt, so let's kneel down here too!"

After speaking, the high priest left the Hall of Serving the Moon.

Seeing the High Priest leaving, Priest Qinglong also sneered, then sat casually on the ground, took the jug pinned to his side, took a big sip, and sighed heavily.

Little Zhong Lici didn't know why Priest Qinglong sighed, he looked sideways slightly, and said in a barely audible voice: "Thank you."

After hearing this, Priest Qinglong looked at Xiao Zhonglici with surprise in his eyes full of indifference: "This doesn't seem like something you can say, the high priest probably didn't teach you this word!"

Originally, being able to say this sentence had already broken through the bottom line in Zhonglici's heart. He also blushed when he heard what Priest Qinglong said, and he didn't know what to say.

Priest Qinglong just smiled slightly, took another sip of wine, and said slowly: "You should have gone to see his... your father... instead of listening to that lunatic for everything."

Zhong Lici knew that the "that lunatic" that Priest Qinglong said was referring to the high priest.

He didn't speak any more, but felt in his heart that Priest Qinglong was right.This is also the first time he thinks so, at least in the past, he always felt that the high priest was kind to him.

The conversation between the two of them, the struggle in Zhong Lici's eyes.They don't know that all of this has long been seen by a devil in the dark!
