Chapter 1039 Monster or Immortal
Shi Luo also found it strange, where can anyone live at such an old age?
Xuanyuan Ce said: "The ones in front of them have not lived past thirty years old. Their spy on the secrets of heaven will be punished by heaven, but the remaining one..." Xuanyuan Ce's expression was inexplicably: "The remaining priest has been alive since he succeeded to the present. His abilities are far greater than those of the former priests. They know astronomy and geography, can see the past, predict the future, can make a fortune, and look at the face..." Shi Luo was shocked and felt a little incredible.
"According to this, isn't he a god?"
Xuanyuan Ce also said: "One of the important reasons why he wears a mask is because of his face. After so many years, his face has never changed. Everyone says that he is a god who descends to earth and can live forever, but I think he is a demon..." He sighed: "Now His Majesty is a little confused. He has to listen to him in everything, and even the entire dynasty listens to him."
He glanced at Shi Luo: "He has noticed you. No matter what the reason is, you must stay away from him."
Shi Luo nodded. It was already very fantastic when she traveled through time. When she came to such a place, it would be better to stay away from these unknown things if she could.
Shi Luo thought so. Xuanyuan Ce's words to Shi Luo were just superficial. She had other guesses in her heart. He even suspected that this priest was also the same person as Ji Ning and the others.
However, this is just a speculation. There is no evidence to show that something is wrong with this priest, and all previous priests are indeed very capable.
...Time flies in a flash. Shi Luo has been here for more than a year. She has adapted very well and is familiar with it a lot. Xuanyuan Ce hinted at her meaning, that he likes her and is willing to marry her.
Logically speaking, Shi Luo should not refuse a golden bachelor like Xuanyuan Ce, but Shi Luo felt an indescribable and unexplained emotion in his heart. There was always something missing between her and Xuanyuan Ce.
During this year, Shi Luo did not eat and waited for death. She opened a restaurant in Beijing. The dishes she cooked were delicious and scarce, so naturally they were loved by many customers. The restaurant was named Xiangmanlou at the beginning. Shi Luo always felt dissatisfied. So half a year later, she suddenly had an idea and changed it to Bafang Restaurant. Seeing the signs hanging on the restaurant, Shi Luo finally felt smooth.
Xuanyuan Ce has been a little busy recently. He heard from the butler that he had a dispute with some people in the court. The most controversy with him was Prime Minister Xiao's family, General Murong from the north, and the three forces crossed their eyes.
Shi Luo sighed helplessly, was it because the money was not easy to make or the scenery was not beautiful enough, and he offended two important people at once, and he was just a little prince, what could he do?
Sometimes Shi Luo really doesn't understand Xuanyuan Ce's approach very well, so she can't help much, but fortunately she doesn't think much about it.
On that day, Shi Luo was idle and thought about going to the restaurant. As soon as he came to the street, he found something wrong.
"What's the matter? It's so lively."
Shi Luo asked the aunt next to him.
The aunt was very excited and said, "You came from another place, are you?
I don’t know that today is the first day of July, and the priests parade on the streets.”
Shi Luo "..." The priest paraded the streets?
Shi Luo really didn't know it. The aunt said, "It's normal for those outside the country to not know it. Every year, the priests will parade on the streets, but the days are not certain. It was learned by the priests that they were for the preparation of sacrifice and pray for good weather and peace of the country and peace of the people."
The two were talking when a sound of silk and bamboo came from a distance, followed by the gongs and drums. Shi Luo and his maid were squeezed to the side by the sudden scattered crowd, but there was a step behind. Shi Luo stood up and could clearly see the street scene.
After about a cup of tea, a group of people slowly walked up the street in the distance, first the guards led the way, followed by a group of white-clothed messengers.
Soon, a big cart drove up, surrounded by white veils, and could not see the situation inside. The people had already lowered their heads devoutly and did not dare to look at the priest and the sedan chair. Shi Luoshi was curious, so he looked up and looked at it. Just as a breeze blew, the veil was blown away, and the face was still wearing a mask.
As if he sensed something, the man suddenly turned his head, and Shi Luo saw a pair of slender fox eyes, which could be seen from a long distance, could see into people's hearts.
Shi Luoxin sank, and quickly lowered his head and raised his head again. The sedan chair had already walked away.
The people around were very excited. After all, the priests rarely appeared. Ordinary people only got so close to him once a year, and they probably felt that they were affected by the priests' fairy spirit.
After the priest was paraded by the priest, Shi Luo went to the Bafang Restaurant. She didn't take this matter seriously. After all, there were so many people at the beginning, even if the priest saw something, it would be impossible to find her.
Shi Luo's restaurant business is good. She made a lot of money and thought about moving out of the Prince's Mansion. She didn't like Xuanyuan Ce very much. Before the relationship was confirmed, she didn't want to live in his house, so as not to be difficult to say in the future. Of course, she was very grateful for Xuanyuan Ce's care.
But Xuanyuan Ce seemed to be in a bad mood today, and I heard that he had a conflict with Prime Minister Xiao.
Shi Luo didn't understand. Prime Minister Xiao's reputation was actually good, and the saint could not be called a saint, but as a prime minister of a country, he was qualified. As for General Murong, they were Xianbei people. Although they were foreign tribes, they were still loyal to the dynasty after so many years of surrender. There was a balance between them, but Xuanyuan Ce wanted to go against them everywhere and insisted on breaking this balance. Shi Luo didn't quite understand this.
Seeing Shi Luo coming, Xuanyuan Ce rubbed his eyebrows and smiled gently: "Isn't you going to sleep so late?"
Shi Luo said: "I made porridge and said lightly that you didn't eat dinner, so you can eat a little bit."
Xuanyuan Ce had a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, and he started drinking with the porridge.
When he finished drinking, Shi Luo saw that he was very tired and couldn't help but persuade: "Since Prime Minister Xiao and the others have not done anything excessive, why do you have to have a conflict with them?"
Xuanyuan Ce said, "I haven't done it now, but Xiao is a wolf-like ambition and has to be careful."
"Since it hasn't happened yet, how do you know that they have a second heart?
What's more, there is General Murong, who are both civil and military. If something happens, it will be a big trouble."
Xuanyuan Ce nodded: "You are right, it's because of these two people, both literary and military, that is, the dynasty..." He didn't say anything about it. Shi Luo felt that he was worried about it, but thinking about it, there might be something wrong, but even if there is a problem, Xiao and Murong are definitely two difficult bones to crack. However, Xuanyuan Ce seemed to have made a decision, and Shi Luo couldn't say anything.
She told me that she was going to move out.
Xuanyuan Ce looked at her not talking for a long time, and he looked calm, but Shi Luo could feel the coldness in his eyes. After closer inspection, he had returned to his original gentle appearance.
