On the windowsill facing the lake, the spring scenery is blooming.

There is only one pot of flowers, but they bloom with a flourishing momentum in spring.

The head, wings, tail and feet of this flower are upturned like a phoenix, and the stems are blooming and fluttering like a fairy.

The main petals on both sides extend outward, as if they are about to blow away. The lines are graceful and as bright as golden feathers.

Hence the name "Golden Feather Phoenix".

It opens very slowly, only once every three years.

The flowering period is very short, only blooming for three days.

That’s why it’s also called the “three-day week.”

The growing conditions are extremely harsh. If you want to retain its blooming posture and artificially freeze the flowering period, you need to consume a lot of resources.

In the entire Qi Kingdom, only the Bao family can produce a stable output of Golden Feather Impatiens.

Of course, this business has now been transferred to Chongxuan Sheng of the Chongxuan family.

In addition to being beautiful, this flower also has extremely high medicinal value. Its "fairy whiskers" can be used in more than 30 kinds of prescriptions to improve the effectiveness of the medicine.

Its petals are also a highly sought-after raw material for making tea. Especially the two-petal "golden feather" is among the best raw materials for scented tea.

Uncle Shuofang Bao Yi loved this flower so much that he would place a pot of golden-feathered impatiens in full bloom on the window sill all year round. Of course, he did not use extraordinary power to maintain the illusion of undefeated flowers, as that would not be beautiful enough. Instead, he moved the flowers here.

, wither every three days, change every three days.

When Bao Bozhao first changed hands in this business, he had a rigid requirement—to ensure the supply to Shuo Fangbo.

"The more beautiful the flower, the shorter the flowering period. This is probably the eternal principle of heaven." Bao Yi looked out the window at the vast misty Feihe Lake with his hands behind his hands, and sighed lightly.

This uncle, who was called "Pie Yao" when he was young and was once as famous as Zhong Xuan Ming Tu, could not tell that he was brave or quick just by looking at his appearance.

He looks more like a wealthy scholar with gentle facial features.

Only when you turn around and raise your eyebrows can you see the ruggedness and feel the perseverance.

He just looked at Bao Zhongqing and said slowly: "You are my only son."

Today, Bao Zhongqing is dressed very plainly, without any unnecessary accessories, but everything is very appropriate. If there were not those pockmarks on his face, it would not be ugly.

There are so many secret arts in this world that the slight flaws on the face are not a problem to Shuofang Bofu.

But when he was very young, Bao Zhongqing said, "A man should seek golden body and chalcedony, and he who seeks golden clothes and jade face is a young man!" He personally refused to adjust his appearance.

It was this sentence that officially started the competition between him and Bao Bozhao for the hereditary title.

Today, the Daqi Bao family, with three earls in one family, is extremely prominent. However, only the position of Shuofang Bo is hereditary and is the true foundation of a thousand-year-old family.

Uncle Shuo Fang has always been the leader of the Bao family.

At this moment, facing his father's extremely rare expression of emotion, Bao Zhongqing said with a sad look on his face: "Please express my condolences on Father's Day."

Bao Yi looked at Bao Zhongqing and said nothing for a while.

Bao Zhongqing looked at Bao Yi with worry and sadness in his eyes.

"Did you kill Bo Zhao?" contemporary Uncle Shuo suddenly asked.

The sound resounded like thunder.

Bao Zhongqing's face showed disbelief, and then he was heartbroken. With his extraordinary cultivation, he actually took two steps back before standing still: "How could Father say that?!"

He stood firm, barely holding on, and took a step forward in shock and pain: "How could I do that kind of thing? In the eyes of my father, am I someone worse than a beast?!"

Bao Yi's eyes were cold at this moment: "You didn't deny that you could do it."

"People have a bottom line!" Bao Zhongqing's eyes were mixed with pain and anger: "No matter whether he can do it or not, he is my biological brother from the same mother. How could I do that?! In terms of identity, cultivation

Apart from these factors, at least I am still a human being!"

"So you can do it." Boyi said.

If I am given enough time and the corresponding opportunity, I can kill Chongxuan Zun or Jiang Wang in the Wailou Realm. Before becoming a god, people are very fragile. Of course my father understands this." Bao Zhongqing's voice was a little bit...

He was mute, with tears in his eyes: "But I don't know why my father wants to hurt my heart like this?"

Bao Yi looked at him steadily: "I personally went to Xia Di and checked all the traces of the battle at the scene. From Wuyang City to Xiaojianshan, I didn't miss any details."

Bao Zhongqing was like a wounded animal, shouting sadly and angrily: "Then you should know your son's innocence! You are a real person in this world, with eyes that see the truth, but you use these words to hurt me today, just because in Xia

Wasn’t it me who died on the national battlefield?!"

Clang!

He pulled out a gorgeous-looking dagger, slammed it down on the ground with his knees, knelt down, raised his hands, and presented the dagger.

"Come!"

He closed his eyes, looked up and shed tears: "If you are really worried, if you are really full of resentment, then use this dagger given to me by my brother to kill me! Let me, my unfulfilled son who deserves death but is still alive, go to

Buried with my brother who did not deserve to die but died!"

This dagger is blue in color and inlaid with gold and jade. It is extremely precious and named Rizhaoqing. It was a gift from Bao Bozhao to Bao Zhongqing when he was eight years old.

They were still very close at that time.

"The human heart is more complicated than everything in the world. The eyes that can penetrate the world's reality cannot penetrate the human heart."

The commander-in-chief of the Annihilation Army, who was as powerful as him, actually lost consciousness for a moment.

Then he sighed and said: "Zhong Qing, in the past time, I may have ignored your feelings. I must also admit that when it comes to the inheritance of the title, my choice was a bit cold and hard, and I was not soft enough for you. You guys

I bear the main responsibility for what happened after the two brothers fought. So for the result today, I am perhaps the person least qualified to blame."

He looked at his only remaining son with rare, soft eyes: "Tell me the truth, did Bo Zhao leave any last words before he died?"

Bao Zhongqing opened his tearful eyes, looked up at his father, and said in a trembling voice: "You still don't want to believe me?"

"I don't have to blame you. I can blame Bo Zhao's death entirely on the Tai family of Xia. The Bao family can be completely ignorant of this." Bao Yi said.

There was even a hint of pleading in his voice: "You shouldn't deprive... a father of the right to have a final conversation with his son?"

It is rare for a dignified real person, contemporary Shuofang Bo, to be the commander-in-chief of the Nine Soldiers in the Military Hall, to look so fragile.

Who can remain unmoved by such a situation?

But Bao Zhongqing just said in a miserable voice: "Zhongqing deserves to die. He has been misbehaving so much that his father misunderstood him. Now I have no way to prove it for myself, no way to clarify my will. I would like to bury my eldest brother with him so that my father will know! My father's love for his son will be with me forever."

Even after Zhongqing dies, he will be able to pity him just in case!"

He turned the dagger upside down with his backhand, Dao Yuan surged through it, and he stabbed it into his heart without hesitation!

The tip of the dagger pierced the heart, and the blood quickly dyed the skirt of his clothes red. The energy of Gengjin surged and roared in the Wufu Sea, and all destruction began.

But everything stopped.

Bao Yi grabbed his hand.

The head of the Bao family didn't say anything else. He just took off the green dagger and put it into his arms. Then he took out a red-sealed gift note and put it in his hand.

"This gift list was originally prepared for your brother, and the person you want to make an appointment with is the daughter of Cangzhu County Governor. Now it belongs to you. You can see if you want to add anything. I will have someone come to your door tomorrow to propose marriage."

He noticed Bao Zhongqing's hesitant expression, so he paused: "Why, do you have someone you like?"

"My son does have true love in his heart."

Facing Uncle Shuo Fang's eyes, Bao Zhongqing said: "No more now."

Of course, a person like him cannot have any true love in his heart.

At most, he felt that the daughter of Cangzhu County Governor was not a good match for Shuofang Bofu. But considering that Cangzhu County Governor was the disciple of Song Yao, the imperial court official,

There is still the possibility of promotion in terms of cultivation and official position, but it is not completely unacceptable.

Especially since this is something that Bao Yi has already decided.

He will accept it. But he needs to let his father know his sacrifice.

"Go." Bao Yi finally said.

"Father, please take care of yourself."

Bao Zhongqing knelt on the ground, made a big salute, wiped away his tears, got up, turned around and left the room.

Feihe Lake is the city lake with the best scenery in Linzi. This villa located on the bank of Feihe Lake is Bao Yi's favorite house.

The commander-in-chief of the Nine Soldiers hid his lonely eyes, turned around, and stared at the shining lake again.

But in the end I couldn’t enjoy the scenery anymore.

So with a flick of his sleeves, he wiped away the potted flowers on the windowsill, leaving not a single petal!

The Bao family and the Chongxuan family have been fighting for many years, and no one can really defeat the other.

But as Chongxuan and Chu Liang were granted the title of marquis, and then became the first god in the Eastern Region, Chongxuan Zun and Chongxuansheng both showed their terrifying talents...

The Bao family has lost its momentum.

As the next generation leader of the Bao family, Bao Bozhao originally sold the Golden Feather Impatiens business just to ease the conflict between the Bao family and the Chongxuan family.

Not only did Bao Bozhao sell the Golden Feather Impatiens business to Chongxuansheng, he was also able to ignore the humiliation of being stepped on by Zhongxuanzun at the Master's Ceremony and open the door to Chongxuanzun's business.
