Princess Qing looked at Bai Xiangming's bewildered look, with a smile in her eyes, and stopped teasing him. Instead, she volleyed the newly drawn scroll in her hand and handed it to Kong Ji.
“What do you think of Master Mu’s painting?”
Kong Jin was shocked when he heard this. He was already brewing words of praise in his mind before even looking at the painting.
However, when he saw the portrait of this painting clearly, all kinds of flattery were instantly cleared away, and a trace of ridicule and surprise appeared on his face.
What is depicted in the painting is a young man holding a ferocious bow fighting with a young general in armor.
The boy holding the bow had cold eyes, his sharp edge revealed, and he shot an arrow, which hit the armored young general's chest.
Isn’t this the scene when Kong Jiang and Jing Yushou fought not long ago?
Every detail is depicted just right, and the temperaments of Kong Ji and Jing Yushou seem to come alive in this portrait.
The sharpness of the arrow was even more lifelike, as if it was about to shoot out through the scroll.
If Princess Qing hadn’t seen it live, Kong Jin wouldn’t have believed it.
"It turns out that Master's wife has been at the scene for a long time."
Kong Jin smiled bitterly, swallowed the complimentary words that came to his mouth, and responded with a sneer: "Master's wife, disciple, I don't know how to draw, but it looks like "It's obviously good."
Princess Qing's intention was obviously not in the painting. She looked at Kong Xian without concealing her admiration and praised: "You handled it well. The Cangwu Sect is already Wudong." The first sect, when you come to Tianqi Imperial City, you can't lose your master's face."
"That arrow was a good shot."
After hearing this, Bai Xiangming said. His face looked a little strange.
Although he and Jing Yushou are not at odds with each other, he is still a member of Tianqi.
My aunt is also a member of the royal family. Why do I feel like my elbows are turned outwards?
But he didn’t dare to say anything, so he could only smile at the side.
Kong Xian and Shangguan Yuzhou's eyes lit up. Princess Qing's words undoubtedly made her position clear.
Kong Jiang was previously worried that his wife would be in a dilemma because of the conflict between Cangwu Sect and Tianqi.
Now I have no worries at all.
He couldn't help but secretly sigh: "As expected of Huangfu Ying's Taoist companion! It's not simple!"
He also understood why his master told him before he took him away that he could go to his master's wife if he encountered any difficulties. .
In this Tianqi, my wife, my master, can be regarded as a supporter.
Princess Qing seemed to have something to say, and glanced at Bai Xiangming with her gentle, watery eyes.
The latter immediately gave a knowing bow and excused himself: "Aunt, please talk slowly, I'll wait in the main hall."
In fact, Bai Xiangming also breathed a sigh of relief, if it weren't for the sake of the two Prince, he really doesn’t want to come over.
Don’t look at Princess Qing, she is dignified and elegant now.
The legend of her youth is still circulated in the royal family. Even her father, Prince Qingluan, had to avoid her when he saw her.
There is no outsider like Bai Xiangming present.
Kong Xian and Shangguan Yuzhou were obviously much more comfortable.
Putting his hands on the jade table, Huangfu Wuqin, who had never spoken, wrinkled his nose. There, Jiansheng complained to his mother: "As soon as I came to Tianqi, I was followed. I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything in the future. Ansheng's birthday is over. Mom, I'll just run out tonight."
Princess Qing didn't even look back. She counted with her fingers: "Have you met me yet? As the princess, you are here. It would be unbecoming for the imperial city not to meet the emperor.”
“Jing Yushou’s mother, your aunt Anyang sent someone to see you early, and you, my brothers and sisters. "Junior, you can't push this away."
After saying a series of names of the emperor's relatives, Huangfu Wuqin's mouth was already open, and his eyes were full of pity.
"No, mother, there are more than seventy of my aunts and uncles in total."
"You won't let me go to see them all."
In fact, The only person who has the same father and mother as Princess Qing is Prince Qingluan, and he is the closest to Huangfu Wuqin.
Huangfu Wuqin has never seen most of the other uncles, aunts, cousins, etc., and he can't even name them.
"You are your father's only daughter. Do you think you will only go as the princess?"
Princess Qing's tone was calm, but there was no doubt about it. "Wudong has been decided for the first time. Your father needs to keep a low profile for a while. Today, Tianqi is Wudong's neighbor. With your relationship, there will be many places to deal with in the future."
" Don't let them find fault and underestimate your Huangfu family."
Princess Qing, the word "Huangfu family" is very strong.
Huangfu Wuqin finally pouted and gave up the struggle.
Kong Xian and Shangguan Yuzhou listened silently to the conversation between mother and daughter, not daring to interrupt.
Until Princess Qing looked at Kong Ji'an, she asked meaningfully: "Does this painting of Master's wife look good?"
"It looks good!" Kong Ji'an dared to say that it didn't look good.
“I’ll give it to you if you like it.”
“Thank you, Master!”
The two of them were asking and answering questions, and Princess Qing suddenly said: "Don't you have anything to give to your wife?"
Kong Jin had previously wondered why Princess Qing suddenly asked about painting again.
Reacting immediately, he took out the jade pendant that Huangfuying had given to him before leaving, and handed it to Princess Qing respectfully.
"Master, this is the token given to you by Master."
Princess Qing nodded with satisfaction and took it.
As she took out the jade pendant, the way she looked at Kong Ji was different, a little more cordial than before, and she warned:
"Nowadays, there is a turbulent undercurrent in the Qi Dynasty. Don't get involved. If you can, avoid it. You and Shangguan Yuzhou are members of the Cangwu Sect. As long as you avoid this whirlpool, there will be no big problem."
"You and Jing will not have any big problems today. Yushou's battle can also scare some people, but there is no way to completely prevent this situation."
"You just need to remember that if you don't kill me, I can keep you safe."< br>
What Princess Qing said was exactly the same as what Lei Zun said, and Kong Xian and Shangguan Yuzhou quickly responded.
At the same time, I felt more confident in my heart.
The four of them chatted for a while, and of course the topic couldn't revolve around what they had seen and heard along the way.
"Master, I have something to report!"
Kong's face suddenly became serious, and he recounted the several terrifying visions they had seen in the wilderness during their trip.
Shangguan Yuzhou and Huangfu Wuqin added from time to time.
When talking about the giant snake in the black mountain, the strange claws in the volcano, and the short-lived water mountain, Princess Qing also frowned slightly.
That’s all.
After Kong Zhen pondered for a while, he also revealed all the prophecies about the Gujiang prophet that he had received from his father, Zai Qiaoqiao.
Among the three regions of Wudong, Tianqi and Yunmo, which region has the deepest understanding of Gu territory.
Of course it is Tianqi who has an old grudge with Gu Jiang.
Upon hearing the prophet's name, Princess Qing looked very cautious.
No one knows better than the Tianqi royal family how troublesome the prophet of Gu territory is.
The several setbacks suffered by the Tianqi Dynasty in the past hundred years all had the shadow of the prophet.
"The prophet of Gu Jiang is indeed miraculous, and most of his predictions come true." Princess Qing had a deep fear on her face, and she also felt the difficulty of this matter.
“Since he said that there will be a great change in thousands of years, and he also contacted the tribes in Gu territory to go deep into the wilderness, he must not be without purpose. I am afraid that something big is going to happen in this wilderness.”< br>
Princess Qing was slightly anxious. Now the Tianqi Dynasty was in the midst of the most intense internal strife in a century.
The Cangwu Sect has just established itself as the first sect in Wudong, and its foundation is not yet solid.
This unforeseen change happened at this time.
Whether it is for Tianqi or Wudong, it is a disaster rather than a blessing. (End of this chapter)
