Chapter 56: A Little Show Off
Huo Lao hooked the corners of his lips, clapped his hands and laughed: "I really let you find it, your ability is quite great."
He knew where the two Huang Yulian were stored, so he deliberately proposed Huang Yulian who couldn't help Master Fu, but he didn't expect her to get it.
"Hehe, how about it, now you can take me as an apprentice."
"Close! Must receive! Boss Huo waved his hand, looking very happy.
Fu Rongxue was also infected, her smiling eyes narrowed, with Huo Lao's help, her medical skills will definitely be able to improve in the future.
It's a pity that he hasn't been happy for too long, and Huo Lao poured a basin of cold water on him again: "There will be a drug competition in the bamboo forest in a few days, you should know."
"I know, my father told me, and he also said Master, you used to be the overlord of the arena, and you can come out on top every year."
Fu Rongxue's master's call was smooth, there was no awkwardness at all, as for the last two sentences, they were all bragging for themselves.
Huo Lao didn't mind, and looked useful: "It's good to know, as my apprentice, you can't embarrass the teacher, otherwise, I may kick you out of the division on the spot."
His eyes squinted, and his fingertips tapped heavily on the stone table.
Fu Rongxue's eyes rolled, and she leaned over with a smile and asked, "Is there a reward for winning?"
There are rewards and punishments, if you lose, you are ready to kick out of the division, and your previous efforts have been abandoned, so you must have a reward if you win.
Fu Rongxue didn't want to eat at all.
However, she was also quite shocked, thinking that Huo Lao would send Li Lian to this competition, after all, he had been with Huo Lao for a long time, even if his talent was not good, but at least he could be much better than others.
Who knew that Huo Lao shook his head: "Li Lian, that kid is still a few points behind, you are talented, bold and careful, as long as you practice more, you will be much better than him." He paused, and there was a little smile between his words: "As for the reward you said......
Fu Rongxue consciously straightened her waist and looked at him.
"If you win, I'll declare you my apprentice on the spot."
Fu Rongxue lowered her face, announced and expelled from the division on the spot, and calculated carefully, as if she still suffered a loss.
"Okay, little girl, you can't be too calculating. There are gains and losses. Huo Lao looked at what she meant, and couldn't help but remind.
Fu Rongxue didn't feel Huo Lao's displeasure, and her courage became a little bigger: "How can there be." I just went to think about how to win when the time comes, and I can't lose your face, Master. ”
Huo Lao couldn't help but shake his head when he heard her words.
It was not early, Fu Rongxue naturally couldn't stay in the bamboo forest, and it was inconvenient for her to go down the mountain in the dark alone, so she was driven down by Huo Lao early.
Being able to be accepted as an apprentice by Huo Lao, Fu Rongxue was happy in her heart, humming a song all the way forward, and the stream next to her was rattling, as if it was an accompaniment to her.
Suddenly, with sharp eyes, she immediately noticed that there was something different from a stone in the river, and when she picked it up, it turned out to be a piece of jade.
She subconsciously compared with the jade pendant on her waist, the two colors complemented each other, and thought of Ye Huiming and her terrified complexion, this kind of jade is the most suitable for him.
Just enough to make a thank-you gift, jade is just a very poor jade material, Fu Rongxue took it back and pondered it carefully, and finally gave up the style of carving a pair with the jade pendant on the waist, and made it into a simple ring, hollowing out a small fish in the middle.
Hehe, you should give Ye Huiming a koi.
It was already dawn after finishing it, Fu Rongxue couldn't hold it anymore, yawned and asked the little girl to send it to King Lian's mansion, and went back to make up for sleep.
Ye Huiming was stunned for a moment when she heard that Fu Rongxue had sent someone over to give gifts, and when she received the jade pendant, she couldn't stop the smile on her face.
Ye Huiming was very happy to receive the jade pendant, and hung it on his waist for the first time, and then he was afraid of losing it, but he was reluctant to put it in the dark pavilion and was dusty, and finally he couldn't stand it, and praised him for looking good with the jade pendant, so he was satisfied with the palace to go to the banquet.
At the banquet, the staggered plans, Ye Huiming only felt that they were noisy, supporting his chin with one hand and half-closing his eyes, and rubbing the jade pendant on his waist with the other hand.
He was already slightly drunk, his mind was full of things sent by Fu Rongxue, and he didn't feel satisfied just by touching it, so he took it directly to the dinner table and watched it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
Since the last incident with Huang Yulian, Queen Ning couldn't swallow this breath, and at this time, when she saw Ye Huiming's baby with a piece of jade, it was obviously not a good jade, and a trace of sarcasm flashed in the corner of her eyes.
She said softly to the emperor beside her: "Your Majesty, the concubine remembers that there are still a few pieces of fine jade in the treasury, and they are sent to the master to polish well...... I thought there was nothing good about the royal family. ”
Her voice was not too loud, and it happened that the people around her were listening to it sincerely, and for a while, everyone's eyes were on Ye Huiming, and they saw the jade pendant he held in the palm of his hand.
"Is that jade? How I feel like a rock. ”
"Tsk, I thought that King Lian was so rich, but I didn't expect that there was not even a good jade pendant, I really can't look at the surface."
"The queen mother is really kind and caring."
The sound of discussion came from all directions, Ye Huiming's face remained unchanged, and he hid the jade pendant with his backhand, these people did not deserve to see.
In the eyes of others, he was ashamed and wanted to hide, and there was a little more scorn around him.
The emperor frowned: "There is jade in the treasury, and there are a few pieces of finished jade pendants, you can take the time to pick and choose, if you like it, just take it."
Ye Huiming got up with a smile and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, this jade pendant can't just look at the surface, it is a gift from a friend, although the materials are not good, but the craftsmanship and affection are rare, the minister is very happy in his heart, and he doesn't want to change it."
After speaking, Yu Guang glanced at Queenstown, Queen Ning's heart jumped, and her back was cold.
The emperor became interested and asked, "Oh? Who is so ingenious, can also carve jade pendants, is it a girl who gave you a love thing? ”
It's just a joke, Ye Huiming didn't refute it, and replied: "It's Fu Rongxue, the concubine of Mrs. Fu's family."
"It's her, I've heard of it, and it's really ingenious."
The more the two of them chatted, the more speculative they became, but they put aside Queen Ning, who had provoked the topic at first.
She smiled dryly and tugged at the corners of her mouth: "Your Majesty, it's not appropriate to let everyone come over today to discuss the matter of the Heavenly Cherry Blossom Festival, and to delay everyone's time for a courtier."
The emperor woke up like a dream and patted his head: "I almost forgot something important." He raised his voice, and the hall was silent for a moment, and Ye Huiming also sat back in his original position.
"The Celestial Cherry Blossom Festival is just around the corner, do you have any good ideas?" The emperor looked around, and finally set his eyes on Ye Huiming.
"Emperor Qi, the Heavenly Cherry Blossom Festival is one of the important festivals of this dynasty, according to the minister's view, the sacrifice should be made a little larger, in order to comfort the ancestors, has reached the heavens."
"Oh, Your Majesty, in addition, this day of the cherry blossom festival is still a good day to seek marriage, and now there are many men and women in the family who are suitable for marriage, it is better to let the queen mother lead the way, and let them meet in the palace, which is also joyful."
A woman in the banquet spoke, quietly exchanging glances with Queen Ning.
Gongzi Tao is the cousin of Queen Ning, and she has not been settled after her divorce from Fu Rongxue, Queen Ning has a good calculation, if she finds a princess or county lord for Gongzi Tao, it can be regarded as giving her an invisible help.
