Green Fox Mountain.

Hunting Palace.

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere of the birthday banquet has been set to the top, I don't know who opened his mouth first, proudly declaring that the birthday gift he prepared for the empress is absolutely unique, and also asked everyone present what they plan to give.

All of a sudden, everyone began to compare, as if whoever gave a birthday gift was valuable enough, and his career could go to the next level.

Li Wuji sat in his place, drinking silently, ignoring what was going on outside the window, as if everything here had nothing to do with him.

"The Qilin Heavenly Master has arrived!"

Just when everyone was talking, a shout suddenly came from outside the hall, and then footsteps sounded, and a young lady walked into the hall with an old man dressed in a Taoist robe and a majestic face, and walked straight in the direction of the empress.

"Qilin Heavenly Master?!"

"I didn't expect even his old man to come!"

"Look, it's the Heavenly Master! The Heavenly Master of the Three Talents of Qilin Mountain! ”

The officials on both sides of the main hall looked at the belated Qilin Heavenly Master, and couldn't help but talk excitedly, only Li Wuji just raised his eyes and glanced at it casually, and then continued to immerse himself in his own world, with no waves on his face.

"Your Majesty! Yuqing finally invited the Heavenly Master and his old man, but fortunately, it was not too late. ”

The young man came to the empress and saluted while showing off, with a look of begging for praise.

"Poor Dao, see Your Majesty!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

The Qilin Heavenly Master saluted respectfully, and the sound was like a bell, which reached the ears of everyone in the main hall, making the entire hall quiet.

"Heavenly Master, you're finally here!"

The empress looked at the Qilin Heavenly Master happily and said with a smile.

"The journey is long, it has been delayed for some hours, and it has come late, Your Majesty will not blame, right?"

The Qilin Heavenly Master looked at the empress apologetically and said with self-reproach.

"Where did the Heavenly Master say, you can come in person, it's too late for me to be happy, it's not too late at all, hurry up and take a seat!"

The empress waved her hand and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty sent Yuqing to pick up people in person at Qilin Mountain, how dare Poor Dao not come?"

Qilin Heavenly Master bowed his hand, and sat next to the empress as he spoke, and actually sat on an equal footing with Taiqing and Jingyao.

"You've worked hard too, hurry up and take a seat."

The empress immediately looked at Yuqing in front of her and said with a look of relief.

"Your Majesty, Yuqing is not hard, it is Yuqing's honor to run errands for Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, do you know why the Heavenly Master is late?"

Yuqing shook her head with a smile and asked mysteriously.

As he spoke, he glanced at Chunsheng, who was kneeling beside the empress and waiting, intentionally or unintentionally, and a different color flashed in his eyes.

"Oh? Why? ”

The empress was curious and asked suspiciously.

"That's because the Heavenly Master prepared a generous gift for His Majesty, because the volume is too large and difficult to transport, so we delayed the time."

Yuqing glanced at the Qilin Heavenly Master and explained with a smile.

"Really? What kind of gifts have been prepared? I want to see, where is it? ”

The empress smiled and looked at the Qilin Heavenly Master, then at Yuqing, and asked expectantly.

"Heavenly Master?"

Yuqing hesitated and turned his head to look at the Qilin Heavenly Master, and asked a similar question.

"Hmm."

Qilin Heavenly Master glanced at Yuqing, but simply responded, still with a straight face, looking more than the empress's style.

"Bring it in!"

After receiving the Qilin Heavenly Master's instructions, Yuqing immediately turned around and shouted loudly outside the hall.

As he spoke, several guards walked in with great difficulty, carrying a large stone, but it was not a complete stone, but had been carefully carved.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the hall was attracted to their eyes, and their eyes widened and they exclaimed.

I saw that on the base of the boulder, there was a golden dragon that was circling and breathing fire, and on top of the golden dragon, there was a woman lying on her side.

Such a strange stone instantly amazed the people in the entire hall.

"Your Majesty, this stone is called Wolong Guanyin, it is a birthday gift specially prepared for Your Majesty by asking craftsmen to spend a year to build, I don't know if Your Majesty likes it?"

Qilin Heavenly Master held his head high, looked at the empress, and asked slowly, although there was still not much expression on his face, but his words were already full of pride.

"Like! How could I not like such a strange thing?! ”

The empress kept nodding, couldn't help but stand up, walked quickly to Wolong Guanyin, and stroked it lovingly, her face was full of excited joy.

The golden dragon lies on the Guanyin, the meaning of which can be seen by all discerning people.

"Your Majesty likes it."

The Qilin Heavenly Master said slowly, then withdrew his gaze and began to drink on his own, as if he had become the calmest one in the main hall.

The empress watched the moment of a stick of incense, and then returned to her seat unsatisfied, praised the Qilin Heavenly Master, and drank three glasses of wine in a row.

Now that the Qilin Heavenly Master has started, the remaining civil and military officials have also started the process of giving gifts, but due to the appearance of Wolong Guanyin, everyone feels that their birthday gifts are a little out of their hands, and they no longer argue about whose gift is the most valuable.

The gifts given by some people were really far from those of the Qilin Heavenly Master, and they also attracted the low ridicule of others.

Unconsciously, everyone has already given gifts, although it is uneven, but the smile on the empress's face has never stopped, with Wolong Guanyin, she will not be disappointed anywhere.

Immediately afterwards, after Li Wuji, who had not yet given a gift, drank a glass of wine, the last giver slowly stood up and walked towards the empress.

As Li Wuji got up, everyone's eyes were focused on Li Wuji's body, and they all wanted to see what they would give as a recent figure in the capital.

But at this time, Li Wuji was empty-handed, and even his cheeks were a little red from drinking, which caused everyone present to be full of curiosity.

"Presumably, this prince is the Wuji prince who has been spreading in the capital recently, right?"

Seeing Li Wuji walking slowly, the Qilin Heavenly Master raised his head, looked at Li Wuji, and slowly asked.

"That's right."

The empress nodded in response, but her eyes were always attracted by Li Wuji, a strange smile rose at the corner of her mouth, but all she thought about was the picture with Chunsheng.

"Heavenly Master, Wuji Gongzi is no longer a white coat now, and His Majesty has specially sealed Anhou."

Li Jingyao glanced at Li Wuji, who was getting closer and closer, and said seriously to the Qilin Heavenly Master, as if he was cheering for Li Wuji.

Perhaps, she compared Liwuji to the Qilin Heavenly Master who surrendered and assisted the empress, and did not want the Qilin Heavenly Master to be superior to Wuji.

"Poor Dao has long heard of the name of Li'anhou, and when I see it today, I didn't expect it to be so young."

Qilin Heavenly Master arched his hand at Li Jingyao and said slowly.

"Heavenly Master, although Li'anhou is a little young and vigorous, but among my descendants who have left the country, he can be regarded as an outstanding talent, one in a million, and the people have even given him the title of a unicorn talent, and he has some relationship with the Heavenly Master, and I hope that the Heavenly Master will be able to mention one or two in the future."

The empress looked at Li Wuji, then at the Qilin Heavenly Master, and said proudly, as if Li Wuji was already her own person.

"Well said, well said."

The Qilin Celestial Master nodded and said respectfully.

"I've seen Your Majesty."

He approached Wuji and bowed respectfully to the empress.

In the entire hall, those who saw the empress saluting and not kneeling, except for the Qilin Heavenly Master, were the only ones.

The conversation between the three of them just now, Li Wuji didn't listen to it seriously, and he didn't bother to listen to it, he didn't take it to heart, he just wanted the birthday banquet to end quickly and leave the messy hall.

Even if you want to gain the trust of the empress, it will not be bad at this time.

Seeing that Li Wuji saluted and did not kneel, the Qilin Heavenly Master's face, which had always been calm, finally couldn't help but have a slight change, but he didn't say anything, and soon regained his calm.

"Your Majesty, there are congratulatory gifts below."

Li Wuji arched his hand and said respectfully.

"Oh? Where? ”

The empress smiled, looked at Li Wuji jokingly, and asked with a smile.

Unhurried, he slowly put his hand into his arms, and then carefully took out a porcelain vase engraved with delicate patterns, and offered it with both hands...
