Chen Changsheng looked at Luoluo in confusion and asked, "What do you mean by soft-hearted?"
Luoluo looked at him and sighed, saying, "Xu You Rong is the successor of Holy Maiden Peak, deeply doted on by the Empress, even bringing good fortune to her father. And after the Grand Examination, everyone knows that Sir is the person chosen by His Holiness the Pope. In the current situation, you and she are naturally opponents."
Chen Changsheng still did not understand. He thought, when leaving the Mausoleum of Books, Gou Hanshi had even said that opponents could take care of each other. How could she be soft-hearted?
Luoluo continued, "Whether or not the Garden of Zhou has Zhou Du Fu's legacy or some other divine weapon or technique, in the end, it all depends on who moves faster and who is stronger."
Chen Changsheng thought that if Tang Thirty-Six was present, he would probably say, "Isn't it the virtuous who gets it?" Thinking of that guy's expression, he couldn't help but laugh.
Luoluo's small face was solemn. "Sir, can you be a little more serious? I'm not joking. "
Chen Changsheng hurriedly apologized and asked, "Is it possible to steal from each other in the Garden of Zhou?"
Luoluo said, "As long as no lives are lost, no one can say anything, so you can't be soft-hearted."
Chen Changsheng was silent for a while, then asked, "And then?"
"Sir, you are very sentimental, and when you meet a girl, you are at a loss." Luoluo looked at him and said seriously, "You and Master's wife are old friends, and she's so beautiful. I'm just worried that when you meet her in the Garden of Zhou, you won't need her to do anything. As long as she softly says a few words, you will completely listen to her."
Chen Changsheng thought, I don't even know what Xu You Rong looks like, so how could I have any old feelings? He unwillingly replied, "The man you describe is so infuriating, how could it be me?"
Luoluo thought, I was just acting like a spoiled child, and you couldn't do anything to me. Now you're so stubborn. But thinking of her dignity as a teacher, she did not directly expose Chen Changsheng's weak defenses. She said sincerely, "In any case, you have to remember, the more beautiful a girl is, the more likely she is to deceive."
Chen Changsheng looked at her and smiled. "How come a beautiful girl like you has never deceived me?"
Luoluo was startled at first, and then she giggled. She hit him and happily said, "Sir, you've been with Tang Tang for a long time and you've become more and more eloquent."
She looked very happy, but in fact, she felt a little guilty. She thought that if her husband knew that she was actually the same age as him, would he think that she had been lying to him?
Due to his guilty conscience, he couldn't control the strength of his fists. The tree trunk was very slippery after the rain and Chen Chang Sheng almost fell down.
Luoluo hurriedly grabbed hold of him. Her eyes turned slightly, and she very quickly changed the topic. Putting on a wronged expression, she said, "Sir, I also want to enter Ethereal Opening."
Chen Chang Sheng couldn't stand this kind of situation the most. He was slightly flustered and hurriedly consoled, "Didn't I say before that many Ethereal Opening cultivators might not be able to defeat you? For example, me."
Luoluo thought about how he was about to go on a long journey again and would not be able to hear such warm comfort in a short period of time. She actually felt wronged and said, "The problem is that I can't enter Ethereal Opening, so I can't go with teacher to the Garden of Zhou."
Chen Chang Sheng thought about it and said: "Even if you've completed your Ethereal Opening, could it be that the Divine Empress and His Holiness will allow you to risk your life in the Garden of Zhou? Even Guardian Jin wouldn't agree. "
Luoluo sighed and said, "Sir, your words really don't sound like comforting words."
Chen Chang Sheng felt a little ashamed and said, "I'm really not good at this."
"Sir, if it's not to see Master's wife, then why do you want to go to the Garden of Zhou?"
Luoluo suddenly asked seriously. She knew that Chen Chang Sheng was a person who treasured his time, but he always paid attention to the natural nature of his heart. Leaving the Mausoleum of Books to go to the Garden of Zhou, this choice, no matter how she looked at it, was filled with a sense of urgency.
Chen Chang Sheng was silent for a while. He extended his hand and rubbed her head, but didn't give any explanation.
Luoluo also didn't ask any more questions.
The spring rain was like a thread, blown in all directions by the lake wind. It fell on their faces and bodies, slightly dampening, but not at all embarrassing. Chen Chang Sheng extended his hand and pushed a strand of wet hair from her eyes to the side.
Luoluo looked at him and smiled.
Chen Chang Sheng also smiled.
Luoluo said, "Sir, in a moment, come with me to Li Palace. His Holiness wants to see you."
The smile on Chen Chang Sheng's face instantly disappeared.
… …
… …
In the evening, a carriage drove out of Hundred Flowers Lane and arrived in front of Li Palace.
Luoluo, under the protection of a dozen demi-human experts and Orthodoxy priests, followed the Divine Avenue between Temple Seminary and Li Palace College, continuing on the carriage towards the Hall of Clear Virtue.
Chen Chang Sheng, under the guidance of two bishops, followed a Divine Avenue that he had never stepped on before, heading towards the Main Hall of Li Palace.
The setting sun was like blood, but it didn't have the aura of a powerful army, only solemnity.
The priests and scholars walking on the Divine Avenue recognized his identity and gave way to him.
Today, the entire continent already knew that this new student of Orthodox Academy, who had caused a ruckus in the Capital last year, was the person chosen by His Holiness.
Of course, he himself was famous. Xu You Rong's fiancé, first upon the First Banner in the Grand Examination, no matter which title, he had the right to attract the attention of all. Not to mention that not too long ago, he had viewed all the monoliths of the front mausoleum in one day in the Mausoleum of Books, and last night, he had bathed the entire Capital in starlight.
Several hundred gazes looked at Chen Chang Sheng on the Divine Avenue, the emotions in those gazes were very complex – shock, admiration, envy, and even reverence.
Yes, the current him finally had the right to make others feel reverence.
It wasn't in terms of cultivation level or strength, but rather the talent and background he had displayed.
Chen Chang Sheng's current mood was also very complex.
From the moment the Grand Examination had been announced, he knew that there would be a day when he would be summoned by His Holiness.
But he didn't think that this day would arrive so quickly. He had just left the Mausoleum of Books and had already arrived at Li Palace, this made him a little unprepared. He nervously thought about what questions he should ask later to ensure that he would receive an answer, and then not be beaten to death by the staff.
Walking under countless gazes, this made the Divine Avenue seem very long. Previously, he was a little unaccustomed to it, but now he was very thankful, because this gave him enough time to organize those questions.
No matter how long the Divine Avenue was, it would eventually come to an end. Door after door was pushed open, the twilight deepened, and Li Palace also deepened, until he arrived at the incomparably grand Main Hall.
Standing in the middle of dozens of statues of previous saints and knights, feeling that dignified aura of light, Chen Chang Sheng was shocked speechless.
But before he had the time to experience it more, he was brought to a side hall to the side of the Main Hall. The eaves of the palace here extended a much longer distance than normal palaces, so the sunlight was largely obscured. Not to mention that it was now dusk, even if it was noon, this place would still be very quiet and secluded, not to mention that it was now dusk.
The two bishops quietly retreated, leaving Chen Chang Sheng standing alone in front of the stone steps.
There was no one else in this Main Hall, so he could see His Holiness at a glance.
His Holiness was an old man, he didn't wear a crown, nor did he hold a staff, he wore a hemp gown and was currently watering a pot of Green Leaves.
This tall and thin old man couldn't be described with the words' high position and heavy position ', because he had long surpassed the concept of power and influence.
