The Great Tang Dynasty: Heavenly Official Bestows Blessings, Starting with a Little Rhinoceros Offer

Chapter 54 The Shy Li Lizhi's First Impression of the Divine Lord

Li Lizhi stood rooted to the spot, as if she had been frozen in place.

Her gaze settled on the figure in the blue Taoist robe in front of her.

The person before me stood tall and straight like a pine tree.

A gentle breeze blew by, causing her clothes to flutter.

His exceptionally handsome profile shone with a luminous glow under the sunlight.

Especially her otherworldly and refined temperament, which seems to belong to a world beyond this mundane existence.

"What a...what a handsome young man!"

The moment Li Lizhi saw Jiang Lin, her eyes went blank.

Although she is not yet married, as a royal princess, she already knows about human affairs.

But now, she couldn't take her eyes off it.

It wasn't until Jiang Lin noticed that intense gaze that he slowly turned his head.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

Li Lizhi was startled, like a child caught doing something wrong.

"ah!"

She gasped softly and hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look any further.

I can feel my heartbeat inexplicably accelerating.

A faint blush quickly rose on her fair, jade-like cheeks.

However, Jiang Lin didn't think that much about it.

He simply sensed the approaching person and instinctively looked over.

Then I saw a little girl dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, probably in her early teens.

Although one can still see a hint of immaturity and naivety in his facial features.

But to be honest, she was already a natural beauty.

Her features were exquisite, and her temperament was gentle and refined.

It's not hard to imagine that when she grows up, she will be stunningly beautiful.

Moreover, Jiang Lin took a closer look.

Comparing their appearances, it's clear that the other person bears a striking resemblance to his own young apprentice.

Especially those eyes, they're almost identical.

Clearly, this person must also be a relative of the little one.

So Jiang Lin lowered his head, gently squeezed his little apprentice's hand, and offered a reminder.

"Mingda".

"Look over there."

"Is your sister here?"

Upon hearing this, the little ox stopped shaking its head.

"Um?

'

"Sister?"

Following the direction his master pointed out, he immediately saw Li Lizhi standing in front of him, head down, looking lost and confused.

The little guy's eyes lit up immediately.

"Sister!"

"It really is my older sister!"

She immediately let go of Jiang Lin's hand, like a joyful little butterfly.

With her short legs, she ran over, arms outstretched as she went.

"Sister! Sister!"

"The ox is here!"

Hearing her younger sister's familiar voice, Li Lizhi snapped out of her daze.

He quickly looked up, a smile spreading across his face.

"Sizi!"

However, Li Lizhi's eyes were still somewhat evasive at first, and she dared not look in Jiang Lin's direction.

He simply crouched down and hugged the little sister who rushed towards him.

Little Sizi snuggled into her older sister's arms and rubbed against her.

Then he looked up and keenly noticed his sister's unusual behavior.

"what?"

"Sister, your face is so red."

Xiao Si asked in confusion, and even reached out to touch Li Lizhi's burning cheeks.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Are you sick?"

Li Lizhi blushed even more when her younger sister asked her that question.

He coughed somewhat guiltily and quickly shook his head to cover it up.

"Cough cough..."

No, no.

"My sister is alright!"

"Maybe...maybe it's just a bit hot here."

Afterwards, Li Lizhi calmed herself down.

She glanced furtively at Jiang Lin not far away, then cautiously asked in a low voice.

"Rhinoceros."

"Who...who is that young man?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Sizi excitedly grabbed Li Lizhi's hand.

Pointing at Jiang Lin, he introduced him with a proud expression.

"whee!"

"Sister, sister!"

"This is my brother's master, the duck!"

"It's a magician's trick!"

"Sizi brought Shihu home as a guest!"

boom-

Upon hearing this, Li Lizhi was startled.

Although she had suspected it beforehand, hearing the confirmation with her own ears still shocked her deeply.

"What?"

"This...this handsome young man!"

"It turns out to be my little sister's divine master?"

""

"The legendary deity?"

She originally thought that gods and immortals should only exist in legends.

The image of an old man with white hair and a sage-like demeanor.

But unexpectedly...

Such a young and handsome young man!

However, Li Lizhi quickly felt relieved.

Immortals, having long transcended the mortal realm, naturally retain their youthful appearance.

and...

She glanced at Jiang Lin again, stealing a look.

That ethereal, otherworldly, and aloof quality.

Even in Yuan Tiangang, a highly skilled cultivator whom the emperor admired, not a trace of such a thing was ever seen.

The only one capable of evoking such feelings of inferiority could be that of a true deity!

Thinking of this, Li Lizhi quickly took a deep breath and adjusted her mindset.

Since it is the deity himself in person, we must pay attention to etiquette and not lose the dignity of the royal family.

She quickly tidied up her somewhat disheveled clothes and hair.

Then, he carefully followed behind his younger sister.

With her head down, she slowly walked to Jiang Lin's side.

Upon approaching, Li Lizhi dared not look directly at the God's face.

Instead, he bowed deeply to Jiang Lin with utmost respect.

Her posture was elegant and impeccable.

"Chang Le... greets the Divine Lord."

"We were unaware of the divine lord's arrival and thus failed to greet him from afar."

"I have neglected the Divine Lord, and I hope the Divine Lord will forgive me."

The voice was clear and melodious, like a nightingale singing in a valley, but it carried a distinct tremor and awe.

Looking at the little girl in front of me, she seemed like a little adult.

Despite being incredibly nervous inside, she forced herself to remain calm and bow.

Jiang Lin smiled faintly, finding it quite amusing.

Furthermore, the fact that the other party refers to themselves as Chang Le makes it quite obvious.

This is Li Shimin's eldest daughter, Princess Chang Le, Li Lizhi, who is also the younger apprentice's older sister.

After all, he had done his homework before coming here, and had looked up some information about the Zhenguan period.

Jiang Lin nodded gently at her in response.

"Princess Chang Le, there's no need for such formalities. Please rise."

"I'm here uninvited this time, so just treat me like an ordinary person."

"There's no need to be so restrained."

Li Lizhi responded hastily, shaking her head vigorously.

"How can that be? Just call me Chang Le, my lord!"

"You are not only the master of the rhinoceros, but also a divine ruler in heaven."

"As a junior, how can Chang Le be so easily neglected!"

Seeing this, Jiang Lin smiled helplessly again.

The ancient Chinese concepts of etiquette and morality are vastly different from those of modern society!

However, he could tell it too.

It seems that Xiao Sizi's experiences were imagined by Li Shimin's family.

They had completely regarded him as a celestial being.

In the past, he might have refuted this viewpoint.

But now... we've arrived in the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, he entered the realm of human immortals in an instant, which explains his status as a deity.

It might not necessarily be wrong.

Jiang Lin waved his hand and smiled reassuringly.

"Alright, but Chang Le, at least don't be so reserved."

"Relax a little."

"After all, I am Mingda's master."

"And you are her closest family members."

"Making things too distant is actually counterproductive."
