The breeze in the garden blew through the pavilion, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers, which seemed to become wonderful along with the portrait of the girl.
The sunlight approaching noon reflected on the portrait. It makes this picture of Shangrao Princess that Li Jing carefully found seem to come to life.
Hou Qing frowned and looked at the ordinary portrait of a woman, a little surprised.
When did Brother Li set his sights so low?
"This is……"
The drone buzzed, and he held down the portrait that was about to be blown away by the breeze with his hand, and looked at Li Jing doubtfully.
In fact, not only Hanba, but also Chi Meng had been carrying this portrait for Li Jing in a daze.
Li Jing raised her lips, stood up from the stone bench, put her hands behind her back, and started pacing left and right.
"This girl is the beloved daughter of King Wu, and she is titled Princess Shangrao. She has a lively and interesting personality, and she is still waiting for her to be married to her, just to find the unparalleled hero in her heart... Drought Demon Corpse Ancestor, are you interested?"
Chi Meng and Hou Qing turned their eyes to Hanba again and saw hesitation on his face.
"Is she related to you...How can a princess of a country like me like this?"
Li Jing coughed slightly and sat back on the stone bench with a sincere look.
"Actually, as long as Hanba Corpse Ancestor searches for him seriously, he will definitely find the woman who is most suitable for him, so there is no need to worry so much. There are countless beautiful women in the Huanyin Workshop, and maybe some of them are suitable for Hanba It belongs to you, Corpse Ancestor. But Li still thinks that the woman in this portrait is the most suitable for you..."
Chi Meng also immediately raised his hand and spoke in support: "Yes! This Drought Demon Corpse Ancestor, don't you think the person painted in this portrait is not good-looking?"
Han Bao just waved his hand hesitantly: "I... am just a vulgar martial artist, and I look like this, how can I be respected by others."
Ranwen
Li Jing exclaimed and comforted, "Don't belittle yourself, Drought Demon Corpse Ancestor. When a man walks in the world, why should he care about his appearance? This Shangrao Princess, as far as Li knows, is the kind of woman who doesn't pay much attention to appearance."
Seeing Li Jing's sincerity, Chi Meng looked at him with a pair of big eyes. Hanba was a little embarrassed and just touched the back of his head with his hand.
"If you want me to do anything for you, to be honest, I will do my best because of my relationship with Hou Qing. But this girl..."
Li Jing nodded heavily and said with a smile: "Since Li said what he said, he should do his best to bring you together."
Hanbao suddenly looked shy, and then nodded heavily.
"Unsatisfied Drought Demon Corpse Ancestor, Li invited you here because he actually wants you to build some artifacts in Qi Country."
Li Jing looked at Hanbao and made gestures in the air with his hand.
"I know that Drought Demon Corpse Ancestor can make gunpowder, but there is a tube-shaped firearm. Do you know about it?"
Speaking of professional knowledge, Hanbao became obviously interested. He stared at a pair of big, rather sinister eyes and hummed, "Do you have any drawings?"
Li Jing pondered for a moment, shook his head and said something.
"It hasn't been drawn yet. I'll make the drawings in the next two days and hand them over to you."
Hanba then suddenly realized, nodded and said: "Since this is the matter, I am willing to serve you."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Li Jing smiled gently and pushed the portrait towards Hanba with his hand.
"This portrait will be handed over to Hanba Corpse Ancestor. When there is time in the future, Li will go to Nanwu with you, Corpse Ancestor."
Hanbao nodded calmly, carefully folded the portrait and put it in his arms.
But Chi Meng felt that Han Ba was doing it purely out of politeness and was not that interested in the person in the portrait.
Li Jing also understands that nothing can be seen from just a portrait. Only when you see the real person, the matter will be half done.
In the impression, Princess Shangrao seems to be very satisfied with Hanba.
"In this case, the two corpse ancestors can stay in the palace for now. I will send them over after I finish the drawings in two days."
Li Jing was satisfied, stood up with a smile, and saluted Hou Qing again: "Thank you so much, Corpse Ancestor."
Hou Qing and Han Ba also stood up together, clapped their hands with bone flutes, and said seriously: "I just hope that Brother Li will not forget the book "Yi Ji Zhan""
Li Jing smiled and nodded.
"Of course I remember that when I'm done with this, I'll set off to look for Wen Tao."
Hou Qing nodded, then clapped his bone flute and said, "We won't live in Prince Qi's Mansion anymore. I don't feel comfortable living here, and Brother Hanba doesn't feel happy either. Let's go find a place to stay in the city, and Brother Li won't have to worry." "
Seeing that both of them were like this, Li Jing didn't force it. He just sent the two of them out of Huayinfang with Chi Meng, and only returned after seeing them leave.
"Xiao Guo Guo, are this Drought Demon and Corpse Ancestor two brothers? They don't look alike..."
Seeing that he was about to go to the dining area, Chi Meng put his finger on his chin and expressed doubt.
The corridor is winding and graceful, with the sparkling lake below. The breeze blows through the corridor, making the wind chimes hanging on both sides jingle.
"They may not be real brothers, but looking at your father and Chi Li, they don't look completely different."
Li Jing teased the crown on Chi Meng's head with her hands and made a funny sound.
Chi Meng frowned and snorted: "The poisonous bastard brought it upon himself. He lives with poisons all day long. He deserves to be like that!"
Li Jing smiled and said nothing. When he saw Fanyin Tian walking out of the front hall, he twisted his waist and walked towards this side.
Before anyone arrived, a charming voice came from afar.
"Your Highness, lunch is ready and waiting for you and Miss Chi Meng."
Li Jing was hugged affectionately by Chi Meng with one arm and clasped one hand behind her back. She nodded with a smile: "Come here..."
The arm next to him was suddenly pulled, and Chi Meng's low voice came.
"You are not allowed to get too close to this woman, do you understand?"
Li Jing was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and blinked.
"I know, I know."
…………
In the hall, there were only two Saint Ji and Ji Ruxue standing aside, with the empress sitting at the head. Her red dress had been replaced by an ordinary wide and long white dress at some point, but her beautiful face alone was a stunning sight just sitting there.
"After waiting for a long time, I just went to send the corpse ancestor away."
Li Jing and Chi Meng washed their hands aside, and then slowly sat down opposite the empress, looking at a table full of exquisite side dishes.
Seeing Li Jing and Chi Meng come in, the empress just raised her eyebrows calmly, picked up Kuaizi and chuckled: "Don't Chi Meng want to try the food from the Central Plains? This is a banquet prepared by many cooks in the palace. Dishes from all over the Central Plains." There’s a little bit of them all. You have a good time first, and then when you have time to travel to the Central Plains, try them all again.”
Chi Meng stared and puffed up his face, as if there were stars twinkling in his eyes.
"Thank you, Miss..."
The women standing next to him smiled coquettishly and prepared to serve the three of them to eat.
Only Ji Ruxue just stood behind the empress coldly, glaring at Li Jing secretly from time to time, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Won't you eat together?"
Li Jing picked up Kuai Zi, but looked at the women and made a funny sound.
"There is no need for you to serve us three. If we have the time, we might as well eat together, so why go to such trouble."
Ji Ruxue, who was standing behind the empress, was stunned at first and looked at Li Jing in surprise.
"Why, could it be that I broke the rules..."
Li Jing looked at the empress opposite and touched her face: "We are all members of our own family. We are just having a family banquet. There is no need for so much etiquette. You go down to eat. We feel more comfortable eating by ourselves."
The empress just looked calm and nodded calmly.
"Since it's a family banquet, you should sit down and eat together."
