Chapter 35: The Smoke of Gunpowder

"The Empress Dowager is here"
With a long shout, Feng rushed over and walked off a woman, eight girls, and slowly stepped forward to support her.
As the woman walked out of the van, all the men and women present fell to the ground and sang respectfully:
"See the Queen Mother"
However, among the people who kneel down, Long Chen is not included. According to the imperial rules, warriors above the Blood Coagulation Realm may not kneel down to the prince.
But when you meet the Queen Mother, no matter how high your cultivation is, as long as you are still a citizen of the empire, you must bow down.
However, Long Chen has the identity of a pill disciple, and he can worship or not. Of course, Long Chen chose not to worship, not to mention that among a large group of people, Long Chen was sitting and could not be discovered.
"Entertainment"
Sure enough, the Queen Mother only glanced at everyone and raised her hand lightly.
Everyone then slowly stood up, and Long Chen looked at the woman who had put all his strength in the empire.
He looked thirty-seven or eight years old, but it is said that the empress dowager is in her fifties. Long Chen knew that he was not the emperor's biological mother, but the prince's mother.
Originally, the prince's mother should have been called the queen, but the emperor was in seclusion for many years and the prince was already in his thirty years.
It is not a solution to drag on this. After discussion by the ministers, it was finally decided that the prince would ascend the throne next year, so this year, the queen's name can only be called the Queen Mother, otherwise the seniority will be chaotic.
With the help of everyone, the Empress Dowager slowly sat on the chair in the center of the table. The Empress Dowager had just sat down.
The seven princes came out one after another and sat next to the empress dowager. Long Chen saw the seven princes gather together for the first time.
After looking at each one, the prince had seen it. He only knew the other princes. At this time, the seventh prince was much more honest and did not dare to look around.
Long Chen finally found the person he wanted to find - the Fourth Prince. I have to say that the Fourth Prince is a talented person, with a humble smile on his face, and he is very friendly.
After a little glance around, Long Chen found that many girls had their eyes shining with stars, and they were obviously fascinated by this handsome and handsome prince.
As for the other princes, Long Chen couldn't help but shake his head. Although they looked quite steady, the arrogance in their eyes could not be concealed at all.
Long Chen couldn't help but think of Chu Yao, who among these princes, did they not wear masks, or did they wear masks, or how many layers of masks did they wear?
A hint of ridicule appeared on Long Chen's mouth, which was the palace. The greater the power, the more corrupt it was. It was not as good as the battles in the martial arts world, and the swords and shadows came more easily.
Long Chen sneered at the fight of killing people without blood and secretly playing tricks. He had the intention, so why didn’t he think about how to improve his strength?
"Master Yunqi is here"
What surprised Long Chen was that Master Yunqi's old figure actually appeared on the table. Master Yunqi's appearance caused a riot.
Everyone was shocked. The Fengming Lantern Festival has been held for so many years. It seems that the first time Master Yunqi has appeared like this.
Long Chen was also stunned. As soon as Master Yunqi came up, the Empress Dowager hurriedly stood up from the seat and saluted Yunqi:
"Have you seen the master"
"The Empress Dowager has ruined the old man," Master Yunqi bowed slightly and said.
After the two of them met, Master Yunqi sat in his seat, next to the empress dowager, but the height was the same, which showed Master Yunqi's transcendent identity.
After Master Yunqi sat down, he glanced at the crowd and suddenly saw Long Chen hiding in the corner, and nodded slightly.
Master Yunqi's action suddenly attracted everyone's attention. They followed Master Yunqi's gaze and immediately found Long Chen's figure.
"It seems that the rumors are true. Long Chen has obtained Master Yunqi Qing Wei and may have been accepted as his apprentice."
Some people couldn't help but sigh that Long Chen was a waste who was bullied by others a while ago. Now he has been appreciated by Master Yunqi. He has transformed himself into a elixir with respect for his identity, which makes people boast.
When Long Chen saw Master Yunqi, he nodded to him and couldn't help but secretly shouted terrible. Sure enough, everyone looked at him and became the focus of the audience.
Long Chen secretly complained in his heart. He didn't want to be the focus, but he was already like this at this moment. It was useless to be low-key.
Seeing Long Chen get up and bow to Master Yunqi from afar, the queen mother glanced at Long Chen and smiled and said, "It seems that Master Chen's heart that has been buried for many years has finally moved. Are you planning to teach me the mantle?"
When everyone heard the Queen Mother’s question, they couldn’t help but feel silent in an instant. It was rumored that Master Yunqi was very arrogant and had not accepted a disciple in his life. He was also very curious about what Master Yunqi would answer.
"This child has a great future, I really hope he will become my apprentice," Master Yunqi replied lightly.
Although Master Yunqi did not give a positive answer, everyone was surprised. Almost no one knew about Master Yunqi's arrogance. It is said that he never praised others.
Master Yunqi was so optimistic about Long Chen. What exactly did Long Chen make him value so much? For a moment, countless question marks appeared in people's minds.
"I guess Long Chen must have great talent for alchemy. Otherwise, with the eyes of your master, an ordinary alchemy disciple will be difficult to attract your eyes," the fourth prince praised.
Yun Qi glanced at the Fourth Prince and smiled and said, "The talent for alchemy is only part of it, but in the end it is perseverance and perseverance. The perseverance of the Fourth Prince is also admirable."
The fourth prince smiled slightly: "Master praised it"
After saying this, the fourth prince never continued to speak, but Long Chen keenly returned the cash, and the fourth prince's face looked slightly abnormal.
"Is there something in Master Yunqi's words?" Long Chen couldn't help but feel moved.
"Master Wei Cang, Prince Changfeng, Princess Bai Chi is here"
As the sound fell, Xia Changfeng and Xia Baichi hugged a thin man who looked in his forties, wearing a goatee and a robe of alchemist.
The chest of the robe was painted with an exquisite alchemy tripod, and there were three patterns on the alchemy tripod, which marked that he was also an alchemist.
Long Chen also has such a robe, but the material is obviously much worse, and there is only one pattern on Long Chen's alchemy tripod.
One pattern is a pill disciple, two paths are a pill master, and three paths are a pill master. Long Chen couldn't help but look down. Who is this person? How could he appear here?
"Yun Qi, I haven't seen you for many years, you seem to be much older." Wei Cang looked at Yun Qi and said lightly.
As soon as Wei Cang said, the audience was silent. Master Yunqi was respectful in the Fengming Empire, and no one dared to speak to him like this.
"Wei Cang, if you don't stay in Daxia, is it because you look back and want to walk more before you die?" Master Yunqi said lightly.
"Even if you look back, it's better than a dead wife. At least I have been living a lot of wives and concubines over the years."
Wei Cang laughed, not knowing whether intentionally or unintentionally, Xia Baichi held Wei Cang's arm and pressed it very close to his chest. Well, specifically, he was stuck in the ditch.
Long Chen's face turned slightly cold. The clothes Xia Baichi wore today were exactly the same as the woman in the painting Yun Qi showed him.
If Long Chen guessed correctly, the goatee-bearded zombie man was Yun Qi's enemy, and even more so, the death of Mrs. Yun Qi was related to him.
Today he clearly came for Master Yunqi and used Xia Baichi to stimulate Master Yunqi. Thinking of this, a strange anger rose in Long Chen's heart.
Although I didn't have much contact with Master Yunqi, Yunqi was quiet and calm, open-minded and respectable elder. Now that I was designed like this, I said coldly without thinking:
"I'm just an old spoiled stick, I don't have four taels of meat all over my body. Be careful that one day the wind will come and die on the woman's belly."
The audience was already dead silent, and Long Chen's voice was clearly transmitted to every corner, and everyone looked at Long Chen with horror.
"Bold untouchables, dare to be rude to the master." Xia Baichi saw Long Chen at first sight, and his eyes seemed to be about to spit out fire.
"Pull it, the wetness is almost falling into your ditch and drowned. Is it worth it to be rude to an old pervert?" Long Chen said disdainfully.
When everyone heard Long Chen pointing something, they hurriedly looked at Xia Baichi. Sure enough, the wet arm had fallen on her chest.
Xia Baichi hurriedly let go of Wei Cang's arm, looked at Long Chen tightly, and pointed at Long Chen for a long time and couldn't speak.
"Is your prince of Fengming Empire so uneducated?" Wei Cang glanced at Long Chen and snorted coldly.
The Empress Dowager was about to speak, but Yun Qi had already spoken lightly: "Long Chen is my alchemy disciple of the Alchemist Union."
"Old pervert, have you heard that I am from the guild? Are you considered that onion?" Long Chen said disdainfully.
"Bold, Master Wei Cang is the president of our Daxia Alchemist Guild," Xia Baichi said angrily.
"It turns out that it's not domestic. I'll just say that the land of our Fengming Empire is fertile and we can't raise such a pervert who is so suffocating," Long Chen said with relief.
Long Chen's words hurt everyone. Everyone laughed but didn't dare to laugh, but they couldn't hold it in, and the smart ones lowered their heads directly.
Some people who were unable to react quickly covered their mouths with their hands with their hands, but that look even more embarrassing than laughing louder.
The whole scene was extremely awkward for a moment. The one who was suffering the most was not the people below, but the princes. They neither dared to laugh nor had any place to cover them, and their faces were deformed.
"Ahem, today is the festival. Master Wei Cang, please attend the meeting. The show will begin in a while."
The Empress Dowager was also a little embarrassed. She was a powerful man who could not afford to offend both sides, so she could only smooth things over.
"That's what I'll bother you"
Wei Cang said politely, snorted coldly at Yun Qi, slowly walked towards his seat, sat in his seat, and coldly glanced at Long Chen in the field.
Seeing this old spoiled stick staring at him, Long Chen wanted to give himself a warning. He hurriedly stretched out a fist, with the heart of the fist facing upwards, and a middle finger raised high.
When Long Chen made this move, everyone at the scene, regardless of gender, covered their mouths tightly, with a shocked look on their faces.
Wei Cang's face immediately turned ashen, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. Seeing this, the empress dowager hurriedly shouted:
"The Lantern Festival begins"
As the Queen Mother finished speaking, a melodious music sounded, and countless people had already begun to light the lights, illuminating the entire square like daytime.
Chapter completed!
