I am a soldier in the border army

Chapter 344: You are not kidding! Great Master! The person in the painting!
There is no real fairness in this world.

Some people are born extremely noble.

Some people are born with supernatural powers.

Ji Zhao had a good fate, she had both of them.

Born with the Dharma Eye, one can understand all truths.

Emperor Taikang would naturally not forget such a powerful and miraculous talent.

The reason why I didn't think of this at the first time was because Ji Zhao's natural magic eyes also had limitations.

At least with her current level of cultivation, she is definitely unable to truly "observe the sky", let alone understand all the principles.

"So... you have been keeping an eye on that guy named Han?"

Only by keeping a close eye on him could the boy be seen clearly by her.

A glimmer of enlightenment flashed across Emperor Taikang's eyes.

But then this realization turned into a rather resentful emotion, and his old face gradually became longer.

He originally thought that as the eldest princess of the royal family, she was proud, aloof and extremely rational.

Even if you have a crush on someone, you will behave in a very restrained manner.

But I didn't expect that she could do this.

"To keep an eye on a man all the time, this... this is outrageous!"

Seeing the anger that Emperor Taikang was trying hard to hide, Ji Zhao just smiled.

"Didn't your father always teach me that the best way to thoroughly understand a person is to listen to what he says and observe what he does?"

Emperor Taikang, who was caught off guard by these words, said angrily.

"Then there's no need to humiliate yourself like this!"

spoil?

There was a flash of doubt in Ji Zhao's eyes, and then he looked at Emperor Taikang and smiled suddenly.

"Father, you don't understand."

Just a few words, coupled with the subtle smile on Ji Zhao's lips, instantly aroused the sensitive nerves of Emperor Taikang, an old father.

"I don't understand? What don't I understand? I understand everything!"

Seeing Emperor Taikang’s anxious face and the look as if he was about to jump up and down, Ji Zhao couldn’t help but smile.

But she didn't argue much with Conte on this issue.

As if coaxing a child, she stepped forward to help him calm down and soothed him with gentle words.

"Yes, yes, yes. Father is the Son of Heaven, the Emperor of Man. Naturally, he knows everything."

"I guess I said something wrong."

Emperor Taikang, who had finally calmed down a little, knew that her words were not what she meant.
After glaring at her hatefully, he suddenly said something.

"From now on, you don't need to call yourself a vassal in front of me."

"You are different from them..."

It's really different.

Among all the princes and princesses during the Taikang Dynasty, very few could enter and leave the palace as freely as Ji Zhao.

And there is not a single person who can possess a being like the Luanfeng Guard.

Upon hearing this, Ji Zhao was silent for a moment, then chuckled.

"My daughter listens to my father."

Seeing that Ji Zhao changed the address back to normal, Emperor Taikang finally smiled with relief.

"You don't look like your mother at all."

"She's not as obedient as you..."

As he said this, Emperor Taikang seemed to be distracted for a moment, but he regained his senses in the blink of an eye.

It was as if the melancholy revealed in his eyes just now was just an illusion.

Ji Zhao was about to respond, but Emperor Taikang changed the subject.

"So... the guy named Han should be fine?"

If there is a problem, it is naturally betrayal.

It's infidelity.

But on the other hand, it was Emperor Taikang who almost let down that boy's loyalty and bravery.

Ji Zhao could only pretend that he didn't hear Emperor Taikang's sudden sigh and nodded slightly before speaking.

"At least when facing Shangguan Ding that day, that person might be more loyal than father imagined."

loyalty.

For the Emperor Taikang today, it can be said to be a long-lost and precious word.

Sure enough, after saying this, Emperor Taikang became more energetic and interested.

"Zhao'er, tell me in detail."

Ji Zhao had no choice but to tell Emperor Taikang "everything" that he had seen that day.

For example, how Han remained calm and unperturbed in front of Shangguan Ding.

For example, when faced with the position of Shizhong and Shangguan's legitimate daughter promised by Shangguan Ding, how he flatly refused.

Tai Kangdi was deeply moved after hearing this.

"Yes, you have lived up to my painstaking efforts in cultivating you!"

And when Emperor Taikang heard Han's remarks such as "Dayong is not only the capital of gods, but also Youzhou", he could not help but applaud.

"Good! Good responsibility!"

"I have such a good man in Yong, and I have such a loyal and brave minister!"

"Why should the world be in turmoil? Why should Dayong be prosperous?"

As he spoke, Emperor Taikang suddenly looked ashamed.

"I am old and confused. I almost misunderstood him!"

At this moment, he suddenly felt fortunate that his eldest daughter disregarded her daughter's dignity and kept eyeing a man all the time.

If not for this, the misunderstanding would continue.

When a big mistake is made in the future, not only will he become a laughing stock of those traitors in Beigong, but he and Dayong will also lose such a loyal and capable general!
Thinking of this, Emperor Taikang couldn't help but feel a little scared.

While glaring at Li Jin who looked innocent below, he spoke softly to Ji Zhao.

"This is all thanks to Zhao'er!"

Ji Zhao shook his head and smiled.

"Your Majesty is too polite. As long as Your Majesty does not blame your daughter for bringing disgrace to the royal family, that's fine."

Emperor Taikang, who was already in a very good mood, smiled awkwardly.

He then quickly changed the subject and started to ask about Ji Zhao's daily life.

During this process, he wanted to take the opportunity to let Ji Zhao use his magical eyes to observe the battle that was currently taking place, which was related to the situation and safety of the entire Youzhou.

But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it.

Firstly, with Ji Zhao's level of cultivation, every time he uses his Dharma Eye it consumes a considerable amount of energy.

Secondly, what if he knew?

Right now, the most pressing matter for him, the Emperor of Dayong, to deal with and resolve is the Huang Tian villains who have already swept across the eight states.

As for the border area of ​​Youzhou... I can't take care of it for the time being.

While Emperor Taikang sighed in his heart, he couldn't help but feel even more apologetic towards the boy surnamed Han.

"After this battle, if we win, I will give you more compensation."

As for if we lose...

No matter what the cost, he must save that boy's life.

Seeing Emperor Taikang frowning from time to time when talking to her, Ji Zhao sighed in her heart.

He immediately stood up and said goodbye.

"Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, so I won't bother you."

"I just hope that Father will take care of your health and not make your daughter worry."

A mother’s love for her child is deep and warm.

Emperor Taikang felt warm in his heart, and his eyes turned more gently towards his eldest daughter.

"My Zhao'er has grown up."

From a wrinkled and ugly baby when she was born, to now she is so beautiful that she can topple a country.

It seemed like just a blink of an eye.

Looking at Ji Zhao's back as she bowed and turned to leave, Emperor Taikang suddenly called her.

"Zhao'er."

Ji Zhao looked back, and as the father and daughter looked at each other, Emperor Taikang sighed.

"I'm old."

"I just hope you will be healthy and happy in this life..."

After saying this, he lowered his eyebrows.

"If you really want that boy, I will definitely grant your wish."

When Emperor Taikang said this, he was even ready to use some dirty means to clear the "obstacles" for his beloved daughter.

But who would have known that when Ji Zhao heard what he said, he just shook his head and laughed.

"Didn't the emperor promise my daughter that he would no longer interfere in her marriage?"

"Don't joke, father."

As soon as the words fell, the graceful phoenix robe turned into a red shadow and disappeared into the hall of the Zhaixing Tower.

Emperor Taikang was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"This girl is really arrogant."

Let’s wait and see.

After this battle is over, regardless of victory or defeat, that kid must be allowed to come to Beijing.

If you don't see it with your own eyes, you can never truly trust it.

……

The moon is dark but the stars are bright.

This towering building, standing among the buildings of Nangong Palace, reaches into the sky. Against the backdrop of the starry sky, it seems as if you can really pick the stars with your hands.

Ji Zhao stood under the tall building, looking back at the strong wind from the sky that was strong enough to blow away the bodies of mortals and the coldness of the heights.

I don’t know how long it took.

Li Jin's figure finally appeared in the shadows hidden among the overlapping palace walls.

"Your Highness."

Ji Zhao didn't say anything extra, and didn't even look at him.

He took a slight step and then stepped into the phoenix sedan chair that had been waiting quietly on the side.

"Go home."

The phoenix chariot moved silently.

There were no obstacles or hindrances along the way, and the journey was smooth.

Li Jin, kneeling in the phoenix sedan chair, did not dare to raise his eyes to look at the graceful figure leaning against the phoenix throne, showing all kinds of charm.

"Your Highness has taken some risks today."

Ji Zhao took the peeled fruit from the waitress and put it into his mouth.

It tastes quite sweet and makes your mouth water.

"Where did this fruit come from? Why haven't I seen it before?"

The waitress said respectfully.

"Your Highness, it was the Prince of Nanhai who asked Daxiu to come all the way from the south."

Lao Jiu?

Ji Zhao looked playful and picked up a fruit from the fruit plate himself.

"Yes, Lao Jiu is thoughtful."

As he said that, he asked casually.

"Do you know what this fruit is called?"

The waitress nodded.

"When the great repairman came here, he said that this is called lychee, also known as Lizhi."

Off the branch, off the twig.

Good name.

Is Ji Laojiu trying to get sympathy from his imperial sister?
That kid's journey south was indeed a life-and-death experience.

But now that he can use Daxiu to send him fruits, it means that he has gained a firm foothold.

I underestimated him before, he does have some abilities.

Ji Zhao laughed, and then gave orders.

"Next time there is a gift from Lizhi, bring the person who sent it here so that I can meet him."

Upon hearing this, the waitress nodded respectfully.

Ji Zhao then turned his gaze to Li Jin and the smile on his face disappeared.

"You're meddling too much, Li Changshi."

The words fell.

A blazing white flame suddenly appeared from Li Jin's body.

Then it transformed into a white lotus shadow and enveloped it.

Li Jin looked painful, but said nothing.

Ji Zhao felt a little bored upon seeing this, and with a wave of his hand, the seemingly extremely holy white lotus dispersed.

"It's to teach you a lesson so you don't act on your own in the future."

Li Jin, who felt like he had been through the gates of hell, gasped heavily.

"Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Highness."

There was a moment of silence.

Since Ji Zhao didn't speak, Li Jin naturally didn't dare to say anything more.

"I'll take you here, and you can get off the carriage."

I thought Ji Zhao took me out of the palace with her because she had something to tell him, but I didn't expect it to be so incoherent.

Li Jin looked up at Ji Zhao with some confusion.

I just felt that the noble person in front of me, who I watched grow up, seemed to be shrouded in clouds and mist.

Totally unpredictable.

After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but ask.

"Since His Majesty has just promised that person to Your Highness, why did Your Highness refuse?"

Yes, why refuse?
Not only Li Jin was puzzled by this question, but also the waitress serving beside him was puzzled.

When Li Jin left the phoenix sedan chair with questions in mind, the waitress asked the same question.

"Isn't the Bodhisattva obsessed with that person?"

"Why don't you agree to it?"

It’s not His Highness, it’s the Great Master.

A name that obviously carries a special meaning.

Upon hearing this, Ji Zhao gently lifted the waitress's smooth, white chin with her white jade fingers and chuckled.

"What? A Buddhist girl is also tempted by worldly desires?"

A look of confusion flashed across the waitress's bright face.

"What does this have to do with the believer?"

Ji Zhao sneered.

I was too lazy to explain more to this woman who had become stupid from practicing Buddhism.

married?

Once you get married, you won't be named Ji anymore...

Then how can I fulfill my lifelong wish?

What's more, if you really want it, you can just bring it into the palace for use in the future. Why bother with all this?

As if sensing some of Ji Zhao's thoughts, the figure and expression of another female servant not far away suddenly changed.

In the blink of an eye, she transformed from a woman into a man.

Especially that face, which was almost identical to the man who had often entered Ji Zhao's dreams in the past year.

With the help of the bright light from the pearls hanging and inlaid in the phoenix sedan, Ji Zhao felt a little dazed at first glance.

It was as if the person who was on the battlefield thousands of miles away suddenly appeared in front of him.

Ji Zhao leaned against the phoenix sedan chair and waved to the 'person' in front of him.

"come over."

Upon hearing this, 'that person' walked up to Ji Zhao without any hesitation.

Ji Zhao's eyes were a little blurred, as if he wanted to see clearly the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him.

"Closer."

'That person' squatted down and looked at Ji Zhao.

Ji Zhao stretched out his hand to touch, but it was still a little short of the distance.

"Closer."

Feeling the real touch between his palms, Ji Zhao rubbed it carefully in his hands and seemed to be whispering.

"alike……"

But after saying this, he shook his head with some regret.

"No, not at all."

Hearing this, 'that person' said with some disappointment.

"It seems that you haven't mastered the art of transformation yet."

Ji Zhao shook his head.

"You haven't seen him in person."

As he spoke, he gently stroked the face in front of him and sighed.

"You don't know what kind of person he is, so you naturally can't imitate his charm."

"Just like I asked you to come over just now, if it was really him, he would just politely tell me to get lost."

When Ji Zhao said this, he suddenly laughed.

But the maids in front of her didn't understand why Ji Zhao was laughing, they just felt angry.

"How dare you! You are just a mortal! How dare you disrespect the Bodhisattva!"

Ji Zhao shook his head and laughed.

"So... none of you can learn from him."

Princess Dayong is so noble, she has met all kinds of men.

But when she first saw him in that alley last winter, she had never seen a man like him before.

Just because of the word "Shao Ge'er", he rolled himself up in the scroll and never saw the light of day again.

Ji Zhao's thoughts suddenly changed, and he felt quite angry and indignant.

Then with a flick of his hand, a scroll floated out from the secret compartment of the Phoenix Sedan and fell into his hand.

After slowly unfolding, a tall figure clad in black armor gradually appeared before our eyes.

Ji Zhao subconsciously wanted to reach out and smooth out the scroll, but the next moment the person in the painting avoided him with a look of disgust.

"What are you doing? I'm fighting a war!"

Ji Zhao was not angry, but smiled gracefully.

"Can we win?"

The black-armored warrior in the painting paused for a moment, then said unhappily.

"Don't worry, we're going to win."
