After the Destiny Child was reborn

"The minister counted, and all the other highnesses have offered, only King Rong is left."

Emperor Tianhe also heard some words in his ears, turned his head to Liang Jingzhan, and asked in front of everyone: "What does Sanlang have prepared?"

All the officials looked at him one after another, and Chang Qing also turned his neck, the anticipation in his eyes was even greater.

Liang Jingzhan also saw what Changqing meant.

A Niang also told him what Master Changqing liked.

But now Master Changqing is full of expectations, watching his next performance.

Liang Jingzhan responded to everyone's gaze and stood up calmly: "My son also prepared a gift."

A minister heard his voice and couldn't help talking to his companion: "I don't seem to have the confidence to listen to King Rong's voice."

The companion is not surprised at all: "Isn't it? The treasures that can be offered, the other highnesses have all offered it, and it is inevitable to repeat it after thinking about it."

"Then Sanlang will also let me and all my lovers reward you." The voice of Emperor Tianhe also couldn't wait.

Liang Jingzhan whispered a command to Bai Wen behind him.

Bai Wen didn't move for a while, and confirmed to him: "There are other precious treasures sent by Xiao Dayin in the palace. Your Highness really doesn't want those, as long as Bai Wen brings those things?"

Liang Jingzhan said affirmatively, "Just bring it here."

Seeing that Bai Wen hadn't moved, he patted Bai Wen's shoulder: "Go."

Bai Wen didn't ask any more questions, and went out of the hall to get what the master told him.

The various ministers also chattered:

"What else can King Rong come up with?"

"Look at his confident eyes, he is not afraid at all."

"How could King Rong know so much? It's normal not to be afraid."

Bai Wen finally came back, he came with a small oil paper bag in his hand

Everyone leaned over, their eyes following what he was holding.

"Isn't this an oil paper bag for food?"

"It seems to be true. If you smell it, does it still have a fragrance?"

The other sniffed hard: "It's true."

Others also took a deep breath greedily: "It smells so good."

Before Bai Wen opened the thing in his hand, the fragrance overflowed the hall.

Tian Hedi also smelled it, and he looked at the unremarkable oil paper bag in Bai Wen's hand: "What's in it? Open it and have a look."

After the contents of the paper bag were opened, everyone made disdainful sounds.

Someone shook his head and laughed disdainfully: "So it's just pine nuts, I thought it was some kind of delicacy on a jade plate."

"I remember that it was planted by the farmers in the mountains, so it's not uncommon."

Liang Jingzhan also nodded, and admitted generously without hesitation: "It's not precious to grab a lot among the people. It's just that my son was lucky enough to eat it a few days ago, and he thought it was delicious, so he brought some back to the temple."

Tianhedi also shook his head in disappointment, and he turned to look at Changqing on the right.

"Master Changqing, let's see, which of my sons' gift is more suitable for Master Changqing?"

The voices of the people in the banquet quieted down, and the tone of the music flowed slowly and lowly.

Changqing stood up, glanced at the treasures presented one by one, and took another look at the bag of pine nuts: "I appreciate the kindness of your highness, every gift sent by your highness is precious, I dare not Accepted, but..."

He paused, then fixed his eyes on the oily pine nuts on the plate, "These pine nuts seem to be fresh, I have never tasted them, and I want to try them."

The faces of the ministers under the seat were all ugly.

Several ministers looked at each other again and muttered: "So this is about to choose the king?"

Most of the ministers didn't speak again, but they all tacitly doubted Chang Qing's gaze.

The treasures presented by His Royal Highness Li Wang are hard-won, and they are considered outstanding among all the treasures. Why does Master Changqing take such a fancy to such a bunch of vulgar things that are readily available?

I didn't expect Master Changqing to be famous, but it was a pity, but his vision was not good enough, so he chose an idiot.

The other courtiers in the palace thought the same, except Lin Taiwei.

He didn't think so. After seeing Liang Jingzhan's smile, Lin Xian knew that Liang Jingzhan had come prepared.

As for why Master Changqing chose him in the end, Lin Xian couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to break his head.

He looked at Liang Jingzhan fiercely, clutching the wine glass fiercely in his hand, and the majesty around him gradually spread to the entire hall.

Liang Tian, ​​who was sitting next to him, naturally noticed, and the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth gradually faded.

After Tianhedi was shocked, he still accepted it: "Since Master Changqing chose this way, that's fine. If you like it, I can also send someone to bring more pine nuts to Master Changqing's residence."

"Then I would like to thank Your Highness." Chang Qing politely cupped his hands and sat down.

The cat in the queen's arms meowed, and straightened up in the queen's arms.

The tune under the player's finger also gradually sounded again, and a voice just happened to cover the ugly tuning sound.

"I have heard about Master Changqing's puppetry for a long time. I wonder if I am lucky enough to see it?"

Everyone looked for the voice, and it was Lin Xian who spoke.

While a few senior ministers were pushing cups and changing cups, their dim eyes also looked around, and followed suit.

Tianhedi's eyes finally stopped on Changqing again, and asked him what he thought: "Then... Master Changqing is willing?"

Changqing left his seat, came to the middle, and cupped his hands: "Then I will show my shame among the saints and you adults."

The cat in the queen's arms meowed a few more times, as if it was also very interested.

Changqing looked around and fixed his eyes on the cat: "I wonder if I can borrow the Queen's imperial cat?"

Emperor Tianhe didn't ask the queen, and said directly: "Of course."

The queen lowered her head and ignored it, her hands running back and forth between the black cat's fur.

The black cat raised its neck, comfortably accepting its owner's teasing, and made a delicate purring sound from its throat.

Its tail also raised proudly.

Suddenly it seemed to hear a call, its round brown eyes shrank suddenly, the hair on its whole body stood up, and the tips of its ears trembled.

Stretching out its fleshy soles, it jumped off from the Queen's side, walking in the middle in a strange manner.

Liang Jingzhan saw that when Master Changqing raised his hand, the cat on the ground also moved with his movement.

When he lifted his left hand, the black cat miraculously stood up on both legs, and lifted its left paw outward.

Master Changqing turned around again, and the black cat also turned around, and stood facing Tianhedi. Changqing made a gesture of handcuffing, and the black cat behind him also faced Tianhedi, with its two little paws crossed together. , performed the same action.

The silence of the crowd turned into exclamations.

"This... this cat... looks like a ghost!"

"I've never... never seen a cat bow?"

An old minister's body was trembling, and he pointed at the cat with trembling hands, his eyes were full of horror: "Is this being possessed by a monster?"

Chang Qing turned around, and when he turned around, the black cat lowered its paws, meowed as if nothing had happened, and then jumped back into the queen's embrace with graceful steps.

Changqing explained to everyone: "This is not a monster, nor is it evil. It's just that I manipulated it with puppetry. This is also the beauty of puppetry. The reason why it is called puppetry is because it can control the mind. "

Lin Xian looked at the cat, closed his mouth, and didn't say anything, just poured himself glass after glass of wine.

"Okay, okay!" Tianhedi smiled and clapped his hands, the applause was sparse but with a lot of force, "It's my honor to see Master Changqing's skills."

The other courtiers under the seat also clapped their hands in response, and Lin Xian also clapped stiffly. When he picked up the wine in the jug in front of him again, the jug was already empty, and only sporadic drinks came out again.

The sound of singing and dancing was also louder, overshadowing the sound of his hip flask being slammed heavily on the table.

"Uncle." Liang Tian, ​​who was sitting on Lin Xian's right hand, turned his head when he heard the sound. He looked at the wine pot carved on Lin Xian's table, and his tone was full of apology, "I didn't do it well, and there will be no next time."

Holding the wine glass in his hand, Lin Xian glared at him bitterly.

Liang Jingzhan was still looking at Fu Yanning on the opposite side, and heard Chang Qing suddenly say to him in his ear: "Bring this to your mother."

Liang Jingzhan saw that he took out a white handkerchief from his arms, unfolded the handkerchief carefully, and carefully took out the contents.

What was taken out was a hairpin, shining brightly under the light, and there was a shiny emerald inlaid on the hairpin. Liang Jingzhan felt amused when he saw his cautious movements.

It seemed as if the pearl hairpin in his hand would shatter as soon as he exerted force.

Master Changqing looked cautious, and solemnly handed over the hairpin in his hand, blocking it with his sleeve, just like A Niang handed over the method to him.

"Keep it well, and remember to give it to your mother. I spent a lot of time negotiating with the vendors at the small stall for a low price."

"..."

When he didn't say this, Liang Jingzhan thought that what A Niang kept saying about Master Changqing's stinginess was a complete lie, and now it seems that A Niang was right.

Liang Jingzhan still accepted it and thanked him.

"Tomorrow, I will go to King Rong's Palace to find His Highness, and then teach His Highness how to use swords." Chang Qing looked into his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Does Your Highness want to learn the puppet technique just now?"

"Well, Master Changqing is willing to teach me, so naturally it couldn't be better."

Liang Jingzhan had a feeling of being surprised suddenly. He also heard from A Niang that Master Changqing might not be willing to teach them even if they were disciples of the same school. But now, Master Changqing took the initiative to ask him if he would like to learn , this feeling is naturally like a dream.

If you can learn it, it will naturally be better.

Changqing poured a glass of wine slowly, and heard a few meows, he picked up a piece of pastry on the plate, said while eating, "That was just a small skill."

Liang Jingzhan saw how he was eating, and suddenly felt that Master Changqing was not difficult to get close to.

Before Master Changqing came, Liang Jingzhan could still see the immortal energy from him, but it seemed that from this moment on, he could not see any immortal energy from him at all.

When the banquet reached halftime, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and the sound of discussing and sipping wine accompanied by the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras could be heard endlessly.

Liang Jingzhan was drinking wine in boredom. When he looked up, he saw Fu Yanning who was opposite him suddenly stood up, holding a booklet in his hand, and walked to the middle.

He put the wine glass in Liang Jingzhan's hand on the small table, and he turned his head sideways to see what the purple figure was going to do.

Not only him, but his father didn't seem to understand what he was going to do. The other ministers at the table also stopped their movements and looked at Fu Yanning vigilantly, just like a group of mice watching a cat, for fear that something would happen to him.

"What's the matter with Fu Aiqing?" Tian Hedi also stopped drinking and just looked at him.
