Chapter 1102 Recruiting the Emperor
Putting down his vigilance, Luo Feng smiled and said: "Little Ling'er, don't you recognize me? Look up and take a closer look."
Zhao Ling'er raised her head curiously, stared at the monk for a moment, and immediately said in surprise: "Brother Luo, how could it be you?"
The joy of reunion washed away the embarrassment. Ling'er jumped off the bamboo building, ran briskly to Luo Feng, and circled around him. She was extremely excited, but because she had grown into a big girl, she tried her best to restrain herself. He threw himself into Luo Feng's arms like he did when he was a child.
In fact, it is not difficult to recognize. Zhao Ling'er knows very few people, so she cherishes every friend extremely. In addition, Luo Feng took the age-freezing potion, and his appearance has not changed in these years, except that he lost his hair and wore clothes. Just a monk's robe.
The reason why she didn't recognize him before was because Zhao Ling'er was in a state of panic and couldn't even see Luo Feng's face clearly.
She has also been holding back for too long without chatting with anyone. Usually she can only talk to the little goblins on the island, but those goblins are just beginning to become wise, and their intelligence is only equivalent to that of a three-year-old child. They cannot even speak a complete sentence. Many times She seemed to be talking to herself.
Riding on this excitement, Ling'er suddenly started chatting, chattering around Luo Feng and asking endless questions.
"Brother Luo, why haven't you come to see me after all these years?"
"Palace Master Shuiyue placed an illusory spell on me, preventing me from finding the exact location of Fairy Island. After practicing successfully over the years, I finally broke the enchantment and was able to get to the island."
"Moreover, Brother Luo, why did you become a monk?"
"It's a long story. In short, becoming a monk is of course to save all sentient beings."
"Brother Luo, brother Xiaoyao hasn't come to see me for a long time. Is he okay?"
"Oh, in the past two years, brother Xiaoyao has been busy leading the army to clear out the demons that occupied Chang'an City and quell the demons' troubles. He has no time to step away for the time being. Don't blame him."
"By the way, grandma often mentions Brother Luo. She also misses you very much. Let's go to see grandma together. She is in the Shuiyue Palace in the center of the island."
Ling'er enthusiastically led Luo Feng towards the depths of Fairy Island. The two of them asked and answered questions on the way, and soon became familiar with each other, and the little embarrassment about the previous accident was swept away.
Seeing Ling'er's lively and lovely enthusiasm, Luo Feng felt a little relieved. This showed that in Ling'er's mind, he and she were obviously from two generations apart, and she treated her as an elder. This way, there was no need to worry about her secretly having feelings for her. Forced to accept the robbery.
As they walked, Ling'er suddenly asked: "Brother Luo, are you prepared for all the gifts that Brother Xiaoyao has given Ling'er over the years?"
Luo Feng wanted to lie and deny, but after thinking about it, he nodded and simply admitted it.
His original intention was to let the boy Li Xiaoyao wake up early and give gifts to make Ling'er happy. The two of them could taste the forbidden fruit early and leave the next generation of Nuwa descendants. At that time, Luo Feng could kidnap Ling'er to help burn bricks in Liberty City without any worries. God blocked it.
But a few years ago, Li Xiaoyao was still a child, so where could he get plastic figures, colorful clothes and valuable jewelry?
Li Xiaoyao is also very honest. If Ling'er had asked him before, he would have told the truth.
This lie is too easy to see through. Even an experienced liar like Luo Feng can't get it back and can only admit it frankly.
"Is it really Brother Luo? Brother Luo still loves Ling'er the most, and he will always be remembered."
Zhao Ling'er smiled sweetly. This smile full of admiration made Luo Feng couldn't help but think of his good daughter Luo Miao'er. He had been in the world of swords and swords for ten years, and he didn't know if his daughter who was left at the training center in Liberty City had graduated. After graduation, have you become an investigator?
The little girl rolled her eyes, blushed and whispered: "Um...actually, the reason why I dressed like that before was because Ling'er was afraid of letting down Brother Luo's kindness in giving gifts, so...I reluctantly put it on. It’s not like Ling’er is a bad learner!”
Luo Feng couldn't help but smile, knowing that this girl was clearly looking for excuses, but he didn't expose her. He smiled and comforted: "It doesn't matter, girls can wear whatever they like. Whatever they wear doesn't mean they are bad. Others But I am not qualified to make irresponsible remarks. In short, the feudal ethics that suppress human nature are unacceptable.
If you feel that it is too shy for you to wear it, when you become emperor in the future, wouldn't it be enough to issue an imperial edict asking all young girls in the world to wear lace skirts? Not to mention that girls all over the world wear them, even if they force men all over the world to wear them, there will be no problem. "
The feudal ethics that restrained women in China were highly praised by "Taoists". It started after experiencing the shame of Jingkang. In fact, women in the Song Dynasty were not imprisoned in the boudoir like women in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. According to the regulations of the Song Dynasty, Women have almost as many rights as men.
During the Jingkang Disgrace, countless noble women were abducted by foreign races and suffered humiliation but survived and refused to commit suicide, which inspired the literati to have a strong sense of shame. However, this sense of shame could not be vented to the strong men of the foreign race, just like those who were angry outside but went home to beat their wives. The waste was passed on to women, and "honor and integrity" began to be abnormally emphasized. The influence of Neo-Confucianism reached its peak in the Southern Song Dynasty. Taoists put forward the slogans of "preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires" and "three obediences and four virtues".
Ling'er chuckled loudly and said: "Brother Luo is really good at joking. How could Ling'er become the emperor and issue such a ridiculous imperial edict? Ling'er just wanted brother to help hide it. Don't wait until you meet grandma. Just say it."
Luo Feng shrugged and said with a smile: "Monks don't tell lies. I'm not joking. If we make an agreement, if one day Xiao Ling'er really becomes the emperor, the first imperial edict will be to stipulate the rules for girls who have not left the court. Must wear lace skirt.”
Zhao Ling'er didn't know that Luo Feng had already paved the way for her to be crowned emperor. Everything was ready and all she needed was east wind. She thought that the humorous brother Luo in her childhood memories was teasing her again, so she cooperated seriously: "Okay, if Ling'er When I became the emperor, my first imperial edict was to let all the girls in the world dress beautifully and wear whatever they want!"
The two chatted and laughed and walked into the Shuiyue Palace. The huge white jade palace was deserted. Only Grandma Jiang was wiping the jade statue of the Lord of the Shuiyue Palace in the hall.
Hearing the footsteps and conversations, the old lady came out to welcome her, but she was surprised to see Ling'er chatting intimately with a monk.
After looking carefully, Grandma Jiang quickly recognized Luo Feng and said with a smile: "I thought it was the eminent monk, but it turned out to be Mr. Ron! It's so good, why did my benefactor become a monk?"
Luo Feng waved his hand and said: "It's a long story, so I won't mention it. Old lady, this time the poor monk comes here, but he has something important to discuss with you. I would like to ask you to do a small favor for the poor monk."
Grandma Jiang said cheerfully: "If my benefactor comes in handy for me and Xiao Ling'er, we, the grandma and grandson, will definitely help us to repay the kindness of saving our lives!"
Luo Feng said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I just want to ask sister Ling'er to be the emperor. As for you, old man, just be a royal grandmother."
The old lady thought she was deaf and listened to the errand, so she tilted her head and asked, "What do you mean?"
