The bustling crowds were scattered in the vast hall, and people who were familiar and close to each other gathered together to talk and have friendships.
Qin Luo was pulled by Qin Buyu and stood at the front of the hall. Both of them were direct descendants of the Qin family, so even juniors could have a good place to worship their ancestors.
Qin Luo looked at the tablets enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple and took a cursory glance. Fortunately, he did not find his own tablet.
Otherwise, if he had to burn incense for himself later, his mood would be too difficult to describe.
Just after a quick glance, Qin Luo had an unexpected surprise.
He saw that his Hanyu Sword was being enshrined here and enjoyed as a sword of the country.
It seems that he made the right decision by letting Qin Ning escape with his sword.
Otherwise, if I had left this sword in Dan City at that time, it would probably have been lost when the city was destroyed, or it would have fallen into the hands of the Taoist Alliance.
If he wants to get it back again, it won't be that easy.
Like now, you can start "Hunter Instinct" and use the skill effect of summoning system weapons within ten kilometers.
Even if you are anywhere in the capital, you can always "come with the sword".
Therefore, if he encounters a battle in the city, he doesn't have to worry about not having any weapons at his disposal.
The only thing he has to worry about is how he will return it to the Ancestral Temple after he kills someone with the sword.
While Qin Luo was looking at his sword in deep thought, Qin Buyu beside him kept talking to him.
Although her name is "Buyu", her temperament is lively and cheerful, and there is no sign of being silent at all.
Even in such a serious occasion, she never stopped talking, and kept introducing Qin Luo in a low voice to all the family members who came to participate in the grand ceremony.
"Brother Ran, the tall and thin man is my uncle Wu Yong, who is now in charge of the household department. The one on his left is Uncle Qin Lie who has been assigned to the border town. The other one is the vice president Qin Yangwen. If you go to the academy then,
If so, he is the one in charge..."
After Qin Luo came back to his senses, he began to listen to her introduction with interest.
After all, most of the people who can come to participate in the ceremony are his outstanding descendants, as well as high-ranking officials in the country. Qin Luo feels that it is necessary to have a brief understanding of them.
So he used his previous life to work hard in the officialdom of Dancheng for several years, and he had become a master in the art of recognizing people, and then cooperated with Qin Buyu's introduction.
Qin Luo kept profiling the person he was introducing, sketching out a rough impression in his mind.
Wu Yong, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, has shrewd eyes and keeps his hands hidden in his sleeves, which shows that he is very alert to changes in the outside world. If he is placed in the Ministry of Revenue to manage finance, as long as he is not too greedy, it is indeed very suitable.
As for Qin Lie, his temperament is very obvious. You can tell he is a general at a glance. He has a majestic posture. If he were wearing armor, he might not even be able to fight with him in a life-and-death fight, even the second and third level Qi practitioners with relatively little combat experience.
is his opponent.
…
"when!"
The big bell in the hall was rung, and the loud sound vibrated and spread far away.
This announced that the ceremony was about to begin, and the expressions of everyone in the hall suddenly became much more solemn.
Although Qin Buyu's voice did not stop, the volume weakened by two points.
Qin Luo's thoughts moved, and his eyes swept to a certain corner, his eyes focused, and then he reached out and patted Qin Buyu, who was talking about a certain sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the city.
"Silver, who are those people standing on the other side of the hall?" he asked in a low voice, and pointed out the group of people gathered on the side of the hall with his eyes.
There seemed to be an invisible gap between that group of people and the surrounding crowd, and they seemed very out of place.
"Hey, I don't think I've seen those people before." Qin Buyu scratched his head, and after recalling it for a while, he said in an uncertain tone, "I have some impressions. My father said there will be a delegation from the vassal state this time.
Come to participate in the big festival, I guess I am talking about their group of people."
"Oh? That's it."
"Yes, Brother Ran, don't be too concerned about them. Many vassal states only have one or two cities, and their population is not as large as our royal capital." Qin Buyu said nonchalantly.
Then she continued to talk about the previous topic and continued: "Speaking of which, Jiahuazhai is not only delicious with osmanthus cakes, but also with peach blossom cakes and fragrant chestnut cakes. But now the time for eating peach blossom cakes has passed.
But I heard that they want to develop a new product, something with a watermelon flavor. I’m not very optimistic about this..."
Qin Luo smiled and responded to Qin Buyu from time to time, saying nonsense like "I must try it next time I have a chance" and "That chestnut cake tastes very fragrant when I hear it".
Although it's nonsense, by following the girl's words and answering the question, you can show that you are listening to her attentively.
This trick he used in his previous life on the young ladies who made Junlou drunk, and it worked repeatedly.
However, at that time, he probably would never have imagined that one day he would actually use these words to deal with his great-great-granddaughter.
Now most of his thoughts have moved to the envoys, just to make his behavior look natural, so he kept talking to Qin Buyu.
Qin Luo nodded lightly, expressing his support for Qin Buyu's complaint about the thing called "Lotus Paste" or "Pear Blossom Paste", and began to make calculations in his heart.
There's something wrong with that group of envoys.
Because among those messengers, someone just now showed an aura that he was familiar with - murderous aura.
The moment the hall bell rang, murderous intent leaked out from the group of people.
The feeling that the murderous intention gave Qin Luo was not that of a killing aura like the mighty blazing sun in the battle formation, but rather something cold and unpredictable, like a bone-gnawing insect.
Such an aura is unlikely to appear on an envoy who is usually a civil servant.
If there were military generals among that group of people, it was unlikely that they had cold murderous intent.
What's more, even if he is a military general, it is still problematic to show murderous intent in his Qin family's ancestral temple.
It's just that now Qin Luo is at the third level of Qi training, and his observation ability is far less detailed than before. However, his reincarnation still retains the sensing ability of 81, so his sensing ability of various auras has not been weakened too much.
Therefore, the moment the bell rang, he felt a killing intent coming from that place.
But that person was not targeting him, and he only showed it for a moment, and then completely hid it again.
So Qin Luo knew that someone in the envoy had evil intentions.
But he couldn't observe and know who it was.
but.
Qin Luo confirmed that there were no cultivators among the group.
Therefore, he has the confidence to keep everything under his control.
Although his cultivation at the third level of Qi training is a bit weak now, his combat experience in his previous life can make up for many deficiencies in his cultivation.
What's more, this is still the home court of the Qin family. There are many monks from the Qin family here, and there are more than two dozen of them that he can sense.
Even if the group riots collectively, the Qin family can still completely control the situation.
Qin Luo's mentality is quite stable now.
Then he felt Qin Buyu pull his sleeve.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Qin Buyu pouted and asked: "Brother Ran, by the way, do you think I look better with bean paste red lipstick or grapefruit red lipstick?"
Qin Luo coughed dryly, and his mentality, which was originally as steady as an old dog's, suddenly became a little panicked.
grass!
This grass growing problem is too deadly.
There is no standard answer, but you may step into traps everywhere when answering.
After taking a deep breath, Qin Luo slowly said: "I think both colors suit you very well. Bean paste red may make you appear gentler, while grapefruit red will make you cuter.
Of course, we don’t say we are naturally beautiful, even if we apply purple and black lipstick, we will still look good.”
"What, the purple and black monster is so weird, how can it be good-looking?" Qin Buyu curled her lips and said, but her eyes had already bent into a narrow slit with laughter. Apparently, she felt very happy when she heard what Qin Luo said.
happy.
She shook her little head and said, "Hey, Brother Ran, I still think red bean paste is softer and will suit me better."
"Yeah, I think so too." Qin Luo nodded seriously.
Although from his previous life, he only knew about lipsticks, facial creams, essences and lotions, and his knowledge was limited to just one name.
However, this did not affect his nonsense at all.
The most important thing is that Qin Buyu just needs to believe it.
Then he listened to her walking beside him from bean paste-colored lipstick to bean paste buns, leaving the topic of death and returning to the original topic of foodies, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After fooling Qin Buyu and returning his attention to the envoys again, Qin Luo frowned slightly.
One person is missing.
At this time, there were only thirteen people left in the corner.
He had counted carefully before and found that there were clearly fourteen people standing in the area where the mission was originally located.
To suddenly disappear a person is extremely mysterious.
The main hall is so empty, there shouldn't be any place for people to hide.
Qin Luo even raised his head and scanned the beams of the hall, but couldn't find anything strange.
At this moment, his vigilance was at full alert.
Just now I was very careful.
After all, he only counted the number of people in that group of envoys, but did not remember the specific appearance of those people, only a general impression.
Therefore, he could not recall who the missing person was.
Qin Luo tapped his eyebrows twice, warning himself in his heart not to make such a mistake again.
Although it is not fatal, it is very undesirable.
After all, after the bandit invasion of the Qin family in his previous life, he was extremely cautious whether he was in Dancheng or traveling.
On the contrary, after this reincarnation, because the environment he was in was quite comfortable, and also affected by the memory of his reincarnation, he subconsciously thought that the capital must be safe.
That's why he made an oversight just now.
However, although Qin Luo was wary of Laman, he was not worried.
The current situation is one in which the enemy is overt and we are in the dark.
He knew that there was something wrong with the people in the mission, but those people didn't know that he had targeted them.
And no matter how well the opponent hides, as long as they want to attack the target, they have to get close to the target.
By then, I, who had been observing them secretly, could easily be one step ahead of them and subdue those people before they made a move.
After Qin Luo thought for a moment, he found that Qin Buyu, who had been talking in his ears, closed his mouth at this time. He raised his head and found that three people with the aura of high-ranking people appeared at the front of the hall.
From the memory of the original owner, Qin Luo quickly searched for their identities.
The leader is the current King of Dan, Qin Zhengming, who has been in power for twenty-one years. He has restored the war-torn Dan country to vitality and further strengthened its national power.
Standing one step behind Qin Zhengming on the left side was Qin Yangwei, the current dean of the clan academy, his direct descendant. At this time, Qin Luo sensed his aura and estimated that he had already reached the eighth level of Qi training or above.
And the last one is Qin Buyu's father, the general of the Dan Kingdom. The Dan Kingdom has had enough time to recover in recent years because he is like a god in using foreign troops and is victorious in every battle.
In short, these three people are the pillars of the country for the country of Dan.
Qin Luo glanced at the group of envoys in the corner with the corner of his eye. At this time, there were still thirteen people standing there.
If these people take action, the target will definitely be Qin Zhengming or Qin Fufeng.
But if they target Qin Yangwei, they will be spared the trouble of taking action.
After all, the gap between monks at the eighth level of Qi training and ordinary people is already quite large.
Monks at the third level of Qi training and below, and maybe warriors with natural divine power can still compete.
But for monks in the Qi Refining Stage with higher cultivation levels, it is basically not a problem to easily defeat one against a hundred. If you want to surround and kill them, you can basically only use special terrain and an organized army.
There are only a dozen or so envoys in the palace, and they don't look like muscular men.
Even if they were tied together, they probably wouldn't be enough for Qin Yangwei to beat with one hand.
Therefore, Qin Luo mainly paid attention to the dynamics surrounding Qin Zhengming and Qin Fufeng.
Although Qin Fufeng was a general, he wore relatively bulky uniforms when worshiping his ancestors. If an assassin attacked him by surprise, his performance might not be much better than that of ordinary people.
Moreover, the importance of these two people to the country of Dan is only greater than that of Qin Yangwei.
If he were an assassin, the focus of his assassination would be these two people.
After Qin Zhengming and others arrived at the main hall, everyone in the hall had returned to their respective positions in an orderly manner.
When he first entered the palace, Qin Luo was brought to the position specified by Qin Buyu, so he hardly moved at all.
Seeing everyone move to the appropriate positions according to etiquette, Qin Zhengming nodded with satisfaction, then walked to the front of the crowd and stood.
Qin Fufeng followed him, also standing at the front of the queue, but slightly behind.
However, Qin Yangwei did not move and continued to stand at the front of the hall.
Although the most respected person here is King Qin Zhengming of Dan, the ancestor worship in the Imperial Ancestral Temple is still a family matter of the Qin family.
Therefore, following etiquette and law, Da Zongzheng of the Qin family took charge of all arrangements.
After a while.
After looking around, he took out a scroll and began to read out the inscriptions on ancestor worship.
"The illustrious ancestors created our country of Dan. They show their virtues and their achievements are illustrious.
Coming from Lingzhou, there have been many hardships. I am not afraid of strong neighbors and work hard with swords and shoes.
Now, my descendants will tell our ancestors..."
As an ancestor, Qin Luo was standing in the fifth row of the crowd in the main hall, listening to the memorial service and nodding secretly.
You juniors have done a really good job.
Your thoughts are all sent to me.
Not bad.
Since you are praying to your ancestors, I will give you an ancestor's blessing today.
Qin Luo turned his head slightly, looking towards the corner with a hint of coldness in his eyes. This chapter has been completed!
