Zhizhou: \"You're An Official, But You're Raising A Bunch Of Demonesses?

Chapter 73: The Heart of the Dragon Maiden, My Heart Delights in You

The prestigious poetry gathering has finally come to an end today.

Everyone will remember a brilliant name from today.

Bai Yu!

This sudden dark horse emerged and conquered the hearts of the proud scholars of the capital in just one night.

In terms of ambition and talent, the four lines of shocking words resonate through the ages, piercing the soul.

In terms of romance and elegance, a poem dedicated to a beautiful woman, "Imagining Clouds as Clothing, Flowers as Appearance," embodies all the embellishments of beauty, as romantic as a fairy.

In terms of background, he is not an ordinary person from elsewhere. Both the eldest princess and the second prince hold him in high regard.

Although it is strange that Bai Yu presented his poem to a qin player instead of a stunningly beautiful woman in the final segment, it doesn't matter.

After today, Bai Yu will be the most renowned person in the capital.

Tonight, many people will also have trouble sleeping.

Tonight, countless people will think of him, marvel at him, and discuss him.

The talented and charming ghostly figure leaned over the table and gently tapped the head of the black and white little snake, with a smile tinged with flattery: "Oh, Sister Long, don't be angry!"

The little snake humanely swung its head to the other side, neither transmitting sound nor transforming into human form.

It simply closed its eyes and spat out a message.

Bai Yu patiently turned his body to face her: "I'll give you another one!"

"A glance back with a smile, a hundred charms arise, surpassing the beauties of the six palaces!"

"How is it?"

"Clear water produces lotus, naturally without embellishment."

"How is it?"

"I'll give you another one..."

If any literati from tonight's poetry gathering were here, they would be shocked.

This person is simply outrageous!

Where did you get so many good poems and lines that praise the timeless beauty of women?

The key is that there wasn't enough time!

It's like they were given casually.

Each sentence is astonishing and exceptionally exquisite.

Even the sulking little snake couldn't help but pause.

My lord... he's truly a monster!

Immediately, she regained her composure.

She shook her head gently.

She looked at Bai Yu intently, her voice no longer as cold as when they first met, but much softer and affectionate: "Sir, Long Zhi is actually not very interested in praising my poems. She only..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Just then, there was a knocking sound at the door.

"Sir Bai Yu, may I come in?"

A soft and gentle female voice came from outside the door.

"Hmm?"

"Yao Yun?"

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and instantly recognized the person's identity.

The English and virtuous poetry gathering would continue until the evening. After the party dispersed, the scholars would naturally have some inconveniences in returning to their respective homes.

The Grand Princess would arrange accommodations for all the guests.

Rest for one night and leave tomorrow.

If they made friends, they could also have long conversations throughout the night.

Although Bai Yu had made a friend in Li Jinghao,

he clearly had no interest in abandoning Miss Long and hanging out with a bunch of men.

It was strange for the Lingbi girl to knock on the door late at night.

He knew very well that although he had a close relationship with Miss Lingbi, it hadn't reached the point of knocking on the door in the middle of the night to discuss ideals.

There must be something going on.

She, who was seated at the head, opened the door and said, "Come in!"

"Uh... Oh!"

Yao Yun is introverted, so knocking on a man's door in the middle of the night should be her first time.

A lonely man and a single woman.

She glanced at Bai Yu and felt a little shy.

Clearly, he was already dead and existed as a spirit.

But somehow, she suddenly felt a chill and couldn't help but shiver.

"Do you need something?"

Bai Yu asked with a smile.

In this night, Miss Lingbi meeting someone extraordinary like this, Bai Yu was not afraid.

Yao Yun nodded lightly, "Yes."

No wonder this person became the top scorer in the imperial examination!

Really amazing!

From what she saw today, she was also shocked by Bai Yu from the audience.

Those four astonishing words completely exceeded her imagination.

No wonder this person could be favored by the general...

She lowered her gaze and said to Bai Yu, "Do you know why I want to become an official?"

Bai Yu shook his head gently, "I don't know!"

"Because..."

Miss Yao Yun seemed hesitant, about to say something, but then shook her head, "Forget it."

The general doesn't like people begging, so she should talk to the young master herself.

She had already done quite a few wrong things by sneaking out this time.

Bai Yu: ...

Sister, do you know that people who only say half of what they want to say will have their tongues pulled out?

"Bai Gongzi, thank you very much for helping me pass the examination."

Miss Lingbi bowed slightly to Bai Yu and thanked him sincerely once again.

There was Li Jinghao, the third wheel, by her side earlier,

So her gratitude seemed perfunctory.

She needed to be more serious.

Bai Yu waved his hand, "It's nothing, just a small favor."

There are not many people in the court who actually do their job now.

What's wrong with him taking a backdoor?

Miss Lingbi at least looks pleasing to the eye, much better than those useless people.

"You're welcome!"

"If Bai Gongzi needs help in the future, I will do my best!"

Yao Yun said earnestly.

"Um... okay!"

Miss Lingbi is so lovely. Maybe after the palace examination, I'll ask the emperor to assign her as my secretary.

He thought silently.

"Hmm!"

Yao Yun nodded gently and continued, "There's one more thing."

"Bai Gongzi, there's that person."

She could sense a very terrifying presence on Bai Yu.

It seemed to have a sense of ancient and powerful aura, stronger than a general.

She was protecting Bai Yu while warning those with powers beyond ordinary people not to have any harmful intentions towards him.

With such a powerful deity protecting him, it's no wonder Bai Yu could recognize her at the entrance of the examination hall that day.

"In the next few days, someone may come to visit you. Although she looks fierce, she has no ill intentions. She just admires you and wants to meet you."

She pleaded with Bai Yu, "I hope you won't have any conflicts."

"Um..."

Bai Yu asked, "Who is she?"

The third attendant of the Ghost King,

This was the hint Bai Yu received when he met Miss Lingbi.

Perhaps the person mentioned is not too difficult to guess.

The Ghost King?

Combined with some previous information, it seems to have been figured out.

"Tsk..."

Let the general introduce himself.

Just as Miss Lingbi wanted to say something, her expression suddenly changed, "Bai Gongzi, I'm sorry, I don't have time now. Let's talk another day."

After speaking, without waiting for Bai Yu's response, her figure flashed and instantly disappeared from the spot.

Bai Yu: ...

Just as Bai Yu was curious,

"She is not of this world, she cannot stay for long."

At some point, Long Jiejie had already transformed into a Celestial Immortal-like appearance and came to his side, replying to him.

"Hey, Long Jiejie, you're not mad at me anymore~"

However, following that,

He was embraced by her and affectionately said,

Completely avoiding any mention of Yao Yun.

"Mmm......."

"I'm not mad at you, Gongzi."

Her enchanting and beautiful face blushed slightly.

Long Jiejie kept explaining as if defending herself.

The beauty was shy and charming.

At least, at this moment,

Bai Yu felt that his own Long Jiejie,

Was much more beautiful than Miss Hu Yue'er, who had a famous reputation.

"Really?"

Bai Yu asked affectionately.

Long Zhi wrinkled her nose and raised her voice, "Really!

Facing the teasing gaze of the other party,

Long Zhi pouted.

The once cold and aloof Dragon Immortal had completely changed in a short period of time.

"Gongzi, Long Zhi is actually not very interested in praising my poetry."

She shook her head,

And continued with the interrupted topic, "It's just... don't make a fool out of me."

"Gongzi said he would write poetry for me, and I was really happy."

"But when Gongzi gave it to someone else, I felt very disappointed..."

"If Gongzi wants to give it to her, just say it from the beginning, don't make me happy for nothing..."

The beauty slightly furrowed her brows, evoking pity.

Bai Yu:

"Sorry, Sister Long, it was my arrogance."

Bai Yu lowered his gaze slightly and reached out to gently tidy up a few strands of hair on her face, speaking unusually seriously.

He was very clever and instantly realized his mistake.

Even though there was no ill intention, people always unintentionally hurt those close to them.

There's nothing more to say, I was wrong.

He also sincerely admitted his mistake.

"It was my fault."

"I won't do it again in the future."

Unconsciously, gentle Sister Long had gradually become a part of his life.

They spent their days and nights together, intimately close, rarely separated.

Although Bai Yu was carefree and indulgent in the mortal world, it didn't mean he was heartless.

Although he was frivolous and liked to talk nonsense, there were some words that were not false.

"It's okay!"

Before he could finish speaking, his lips were covered by a slender white finger.

"Master, I will never blame you!"

The beauty's bright eyes were filled with warmth in her words.

Gentle whispers,

Like candy, slowly spreading in the lake of the heart.

Quiet!

The room was very quiet.

The house that Lan Xi chose for Bai Yu was very good, exquisitely decorated, and the red candles flickered with a beautiful light.

"Master, do you like that fox?"

Long Zhi didn't know how she felt.

As Bai Yu entered the capital city and gradually displayed his talent,

More and more people began to pay attention to him, gathering around him,

The pen just now, Lan Xi, Hu Yue... various kinds of people.

This made her feel like her own treasure had suddenly been discovered by others.

When Bai Yu first encountered Lan Xi, she didn't think much of it.

But when she saw that fox spirit, she felt an inexplicable sense of annoyance.

This was a being with a similar nature to hers.

Both were demons.

"Um... quite fond of her."

At this moment, Bai Yu wouldn't lie to Long Zhi,

He paused and honestly said.

He naturally liked beautiful women.

"So... does the gentleman like Long Zhi?"

Long Zhi asked again.

"I like her!"

"How much do you like her?"

"I like her very much."

Looking into Bai Yu's eyes,

Long Zhi swayed her body, that strange feeling came again.

But now she already knew

what this kind of feeling was.

She intimately embraced Bai Yu's neck, looked into his eyes, and asked Bai Yu, "If the gentleman likes to rate people, can you rate Long Zhi and that fox?"

Bai Yu gently shook his head, pointing to his chest,

saying, "The person who lives in my heart cannot be rated, scores cannot measure it.

Then,

the delicate face in front of him seemed to grow larger, the distance gradually shrinking.

Breaths intertwined,

a kiss.

"Gentleman, my heart is pleased with you!"

Transcending Tribulation to seek eternal love, vowing to protect each other for a lifetime.

From then on, they spent their days and nights together,

watching him wander and play in the mortal world, watching him guide the country with authority, watching him shine brightly in front of others, listening to his bold confession under the moon, playing and laughing with him, sharing secrets that only they could hear, understanding the truest intentions of this person that only she could know...

How could she not like him?

In just a few short months,

An emotion that had never appeared in my heart for 4.9 thousand years suddenly erupted.

So this is how it is, so this is how it is...

Turns out, the mortal world is like this, the human realm is like this, and love is like this...

I really like it, I really like it!

Life is short, but hers is long.

She is very afraid!

So, when the other person boldly expresses their love under the moonlight, she directly transforms into a little snake... too scared to engage in conversation.

But the feeling of being moved will not change!

It will only grow stronger with time.

What does a hundred-year love matter?

Having experienced this once, it is enough for her in this lifetime!

The beautiful and elegant dragon lady looks at the sixteen-year-old boy in front of her and softly speaks with a gentle and affectionate voice.

Clearly, she has cultivated for a thousand years, but her heart is as pure as a blank sheet of paper, pure and cold.

Clearly, she is only sixteen years old, but she possesses wisdom beyond her age, understanding human emotions.

"Sister Dragon, you must be with me forever!"

Bai Yu is very healthy-looking, with a tall and upright figure. Although he is not as burly as the Second Prince, he still has the appearance of a gallant young man.

Long Zhi has a tall figure, but she is not as tall as him.

Bai Yu hugs her from behind, looks into her eyes, and persistently says,

"I have said the most frivolous and promiscuous things to you in the past, and they still hold true. I will never take them back!"

"Ah!"

A gentle breeze blows, extinguishing the red candle.

Actually, Bai Yu gave the poem to Long Zhi.

He just switched her with the fox.

The night of the English Poetry Society is very quiet, with a bright full moon.

When you lie down, you are the landscape; when you sit up, you are a bodhisattva.

I am a commoner, and you are a bodhisattva.

I only know how to be wild, while you smile and enlighten me...
