The whole empire is begging for my resurrection

All the guests have arrived, but the host is the last to enter.

Logically speaking, this is extremely impolite behavior, but now the empire as a whole respects imperial painters, and even the repainters have become noble.In addition, everyone is asking for him, how can anyone dare to say that it is inappropriate for Mr. Tao to be late.

As the master of the Tao family walked into the living room, the discussions around gradually disappeared.

Tao Xingchang walked to the center of the venue, his eyes swept across the people in the venue, his eyes paused several times on the big family, and he frowned and glanced at Rong Yunjing who was wearing a mask, and then he said indifferently:

"This repainting banquet was held in a hurry, so it's hard for everyone to take this time to visit me, an old man."

Everyone was very excited and immediately responded to the compliment.

"No embarrassment, no embarrassment, the big guys in the old man's field are all overwhelmed and want to enter."

"The Tao family's repainting skills are superb. It is already a great gift for you to come out of the mountain again."

"Bringing the most precious paintings at home, I hope they can be brought back to life under your hands!"

It seemed that he was used to flattery, Tao Xingchang's facial expression didn't change much.

"For this banquet, only one person will be selected to repaint. Everyone knows my temper. As a person, I never look at how big your backstage is or how powerful you are."

Speaking of this, he frowned again and looked at Rong Yunjing, who was next in the main seat, and paused for a while before continuing.

"I only care about the painting in your hand."

Although no one spoke in the hall, everyone glanced at Rong Yunjing intentionally or unintentionally.

Regardless of whether they knew the inside story or not, everyone thought that the old man's words were aimed at Rong Yunjing, and naturally there was a bit of fun in his eyes.

"..."

Rong Yunjing was wearing a mask, and the only eyes that were exposed were calm, without any guilt.

Xi Qingyin suddenly felt a headache.

Don't look at the fact that Yu Kuan Fan was so heartless at this banquet. In fact, after the Yu Yangnian arson and murder of Tao Liyan ended, the Tao family and the Yu family directly turned against each other, and the family friendship was not there at all.This time, Yu Kuan Fan went to the banquet alone because he was too ambitious, or because he wanted to expand his business and was crazy, maybe he got a lot of stares from the Tao family in a short while.

In addition, the Yu family has always been on good terms with the Rong family, and even Rong Yunjing is in an awkward situation this time.

Of course, the determination of the people in the royal family is among the best.

Looking at it from the outside, Rong Yunjing is as calm as if he regards this place as his own home, without any discomfort.

The cat blew the fur on its little paws, and lay flat on the golden peacock's lap, as if an old monk was in meditation.

"Now that everyone is here, let's go straight to today's topic."

Although Mr. Tao said it calmly, everyone who heard this sentence was very excited.

Everyone raised the damaged painting wrapped in various materials in their hands, their eyes were warm and anxious.

A few eager people directly opened the outer packaging, displayed the painting directly, and said loudly: "Old man, please take a look at my painting!"

The person next to him pulled him down and said anxiously: "Look at mine, his painting is definitely not as good as mine."

The two glared at each other, and the atmosphere in the venue was also tense.

Many people frowned and looked at other people's paintings, evaluating the value of the paintings in their hearts and then comparing them with the paintings in their own hands.If their own is better, they immediately smile and breathe a sigh of relief; if the other party's is better, they secretly have bad thoughts, thinking about how to make the other party retreat.

Under the influence of such an atmosphere, Xi Qingyin also narrowed her eyes and looked at the paintings that had been unveiled.

After scanning around, he lowered his eyelids to hide the flash of surprise in his eyes.

Mr. Tao's charisma is really extraordinary. There are many high-quality paintings in the surrounding area, basically all of them are made by A-level imperial painters, and most of them are of great value.

There are also posthumous works of deceased imperial painters, and some works are even older than Xi Qingyin's age.

What's more, it is the mysterious paintings that are still covered under all kinds of cloth, and the majestic spiritual power emanating from under the cloth can be felt from the outside.

For an imperial painter, this is obviously very attractive.

The cat raised its eyes and glanced at Rong Yunjing.

The latter's face was covered by a mask, and his eyes looked at the painting held in his left palm gently, without panicking at all.

"Meow..."

Why does he feel that the Golden Peacock is more confident than himself as the Royal Painter...

Tao Xiaoxiao poked his head out from behind Tao Xingchang, coughed twice, and said solemnly: "Everyone, give me the paintings in your hands, and I will give them to my father one by one for review."

As he spoke, he walked up to the crowd, and the subordinate next to him helped to mark the painting, while he greeted them with a smile and chatted a few words indiscriminately.

The previous process was very smooth. Everyone came here to ask for help from others, so they cooperated very well, so the speed of picking up the painting was also quite fast, and they arrived at Rong Yunjing's place in the blink of an eye.

After taking the painting, Tao Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped, and looked at Rong Yunjing without blinking.

After a pause, he said nervously, "Do you know the purpose of this banquet?"

Rong Yunjing tilted his head, and said with a gentle smile, "Of course I know."

Tao Xiaoxiao considered it carefully and said, "What do you think it is?"

Rong Yunjing said: "Make up the painting."

"..." Tao Xiaoxiao was full of confusion.

The cat stood up and paced back and forth on Rong Yunjing's lap.

Because of the excessive noise, Tao Xiaoxiao's attention was quickly diverted. He looked down and looked curiously at the naive kitten in front of him.

Compared with the countless cute pet cats in the empire, this cat is very different. From the perspective of size alone, this cat is half smaller than other cats.

Its appearance is even more beautiful. If you choose the beauty of cats, this cat should be the first one.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the cat's face of honeyed disgust and bared teeth threats.

Tao Xiaoxiao scratched his head and said, "Ah, your cat doesn't seem to like me very much."

Rong Yunjing reached out and rubbed the cat's head, shook his head and said gently: "It just doesn't have other kittens to accompany it, and it lacks love."

"Meow?" The cat raised its paw and gave the peacock who was domineering above his head a hard blow.

Rong Yunjing immediately withdrew his hands and sat still.

Tao Xiaoxiao bowed unbearably, and walked towards the next person with the painting.

After driving Tao Xiaoxiao away with her ability, Xi Qingyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It really wasn't him acting wild just now!

Tao Xiaoxiao knew too many things, and just because of the fact that "Sishouda entrusted Tao Xingchang to help others repaint", he couldn't let him have more contact with Rong Yunjing.In case of slipping the tongue, it would be bad if it aroused Golden Peacock's suspicion.

As soon as the crisis on this side came into contact, the tail on the other side was picked up.

Rong Yunjing grabbed the fluffy tail, and brought the scratch on the other hand to the cat's eyes.

"You grabbed me."

The cat's face was calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Rong Yunjing pulled the cat's erect ears again, and said emphatically, "You just scratched me."

The cat looked at him fearlessly, its eyes were extremely arrogant, and it seemed to say: What, why don't you catch it back?

Get it back, get it back!

Rong Yunjing stretched out his finger and picked the small jio in the shape of a plum blossom, and the latter quickly withdrew the small jio.

Seeing this situation, the corners of Rong Yunjing's lips curled up slightly, and he stretched out his hand to pick the cat's jio with great interest. The cat pulled back the jio, staring at him with frowning eyes.After standing still for two or three seconds, Rong Yunjing persevered and stretched out his magic palm again, covering the cat's plum blossom paws with his slender fingers.

"Meow!"

The cat's impatient bright paws, the golden peacock got another injury because of his cheap hands, even so, he still looks very happy.

After playing around for a while, Rong Yunjing, who seemed to be above him, suddenly froze for a moment and woke up.

How could he have such fun with a cat in public?

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. In the end, Rong Yunjing could only sit upright without squinting.

During the interaction between one person and one cat, Tao Xiaoxiao's movements were also very fast. He collected the paintings in the entire hall and showed them to Tao Xingchang one by one according to the serial number.

Nearly every painting elicits exclamations when it is lifted.

"That's "Li's Evening Banquet Picture" treasured by the Li family! It is said that this painting is regarded as a treasure by the Li family.

"It's "Saint Waander", the masterpiece that shined on the battlefield last time, but it actually fell into the hands of this kid?!"

"Portrait of Mr. and Mrs. Andrews"! Hasn't this painting been stolen and its whereabouts are unknown?"

As more and more famous paintings are piled up, the value of this banquet is also getting higher and higher.

I thought these works would move Tao Xingchang to some extent, but unfortunately they didn't. He half-knocked his eyes the whole time, looking not very interested.

Even "Portrait of Mr. and Mrs. Andrews", which the public thought had a high chance of winning the bid, failed to get two more looks from him.

"It seems that this trip was for nothing. The old man's vision is too high."

"Hey... I don't know what kind of work it takes to catch his eyes."

"My lord at the main table, the painting he brought hasn't been unveiled yet?"

Many people were reminded by this sentence and subconsciously looked in Rong Yunjing's direction.

It just so happened that Tao Xiaoxiao also read Rong Yunjing's serial number at this time. He looked at the painting in his hand and pulled the edge of the canvas vigorously with his fingers, his face was [-]% dazed and unbelievable.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you stand up the painting and look at it?" Tao Xingchang urged dissatisfied.

Rong Yunjing sat upright, curling his fingertips slightly.

No matter how calm he was before, as long as the person in his heart is involved, he will inevitably become nervous.

The painting was slowly erected, and the painting full of insults was displayed in front of everyone.

Seeing the colorful crayon marks on the painting, everyone was taken aback.After concentrating on seeing the signature of the painting, the whole hall was suddenly dead silent and the atmosphere was strange.

While looking at each other, I don't know who whispered in fear: "How could it be that person's painting..."

The author has something to say: Note: The titles of the paintings in this chapter refer to real famous paintings.

I heard that there is a famous theory called the theory of cat's claws on the ground. Today Queque confirmed this theory with practical actions hhhh
