Chapter 762: Holding the piano and causing trouble

Storage rings are rare.

Except for the one that Zhao Changhe got from the Xuanwu Secret Realm earlier, I had only seen it from Sisi. Sisi is an ancient spiritual clan inheritance, and there are indeed many ancient objects in the clan. In addition, although those people like Yuxu Yingwu have not seen them use it, they must have it. Most of them, such as Suzaku Xuanwu, who have received the inheritance of the four ancient images, are generally very rare. They must be people who are closely related to the ancient times.

I didn’t even have Tang Wanzhuang before, but now I got one from the palace collection. Well, it was a gift from His Majesty Chi Chi. The origin is unknown. It may have been acquired by Xia Longyuan in his early years, or it may be a treasure that has been paid tribute from various places over the years. Generally speaking, there are not many such collections in the palace, so they are considered rare treasures.

Therefore, Tang Wanzhuang had not thought that this rare treasure could be used on a large scale. She had not thought about it, and it was almost impossible for Timur to think so.

However, once you think about it, this is a problem that you can try to solve. If it is really conquered, is there any need to talk about the advantages of war?

How to solve it?

The separation between ancient times and the present era is mainly reflected in the interruption of the cognitive practice. The strong only know that there is a guard but not why, and ordinary people simply don’t even know about the guard. Therefore, a gap is formed in the practice. But this does not mean that there is a gap in technology. In terms of process technology, it is definitely better than the past!

The reason why many things cannot be forged is still due to the limitations of spiritual practice. Once the spiritual practice has been overcome, or there is no need to overcome it, and one only needs to understand the key points, how can it be possible that today’s craftsmanship cannot replicate the things of ancient times? For example, the forging method taught by Xuanwu, what is so strange about the forging method itself is that it is only complicated by the understanding of the Ye Emperor’s intention.

So what is the core of a storage ring?

Obviously space.

Space is a very advanced law and extremely difficult to master. But when applied to a storage ring, you don’t need to have high-end control, as long as you know the ropes, it should be enough. Who is more knowledgeable?

The most popular one in the world is Ying Wu, followed by Buddhism, Mustard Seed Na Xumi. In the secret space in Xiangyang, the monks also said that they could disrupt the space and make it difficult for the other party to connect, showing a certain degree of spatial awareness.

Tang Wanzhuang immediately walked out the door: “Come, go to Xichan Temple to invite Master Yuanxing, and go to Kangle Gambling House to invite Master Sha Qi.”

“Wuanxing came to Beijing?” Zhao Changhe asked.

“Well, I have just arrived. Since Yuancheng has obeyed your order and accepted taxes and privileges, the capital will naturally be tolerant. Your Majesty means that the Four Symbols Sect is not afraid of competition-no one will do it anyway. Can’t compete with her.”

Zhao Changhe: “…the state religion is awesome.”

Tang Wanzhuang glanced at him: “Hey, the Four Symbols Sect seems to be worshiping you.”

“Oh, it seems so…” Zhao Changhe twitched the corner of his mouth. It was still difficult for him to think of himself as the Night Emperor. In his heart, the Night Emperor was someone else.

But no matter who Ye Emperor is, from the perspective of national governance, it is definitely not a good thing for a sect to be dominant. Even if Xia Chichi was born in the Four Symbols and used the green dragon to act as an emperor in the world, she would start to support Other forces should check and balance this, which is what Wanzhuang had suggested to her a long time ago. It seems that everything is on track now. The entry of Buddhism symbolizes that this empire is beginning to take on the shape of a prosperous dynasty.

An obvious advantage of having many friends is that there are talents from all walks of life, and there is no bias.

Not long after, Yuan Xing and Sha Qi arrived at about the same time. When they saw Zhao Changhe, they both held up their hands and smiled: “I have met King Zhao.”

Then he saluted Tang Wanzhuang: “The chief of the Tang Dynasty.”

Tang Wanzhuang got straight to the point: “No further talk, I want to summon top craftsmen to study the casting of storage rings. What you two have learned is related to the way of space. I wonder if you can provide help?”

Casting a storage ring? The first reaction of both of them was that they were stunned. Then they thought about it and realized that it seemed that it was not impossible to do it.

There are many things that I just haven’t thought about. Once I think about it carefully, I find that it is not as difficult as I imagined.

Wanxing thought for a moment and said cautiously: “If this was done a few months ago, there is nothing I can do. But now that we have penetrated the Xiangyang secret realm, we have indeed gained a lot of knowledge in this regard… If we can pre-engraved it on the ring, A small space formation might really be able to do it.”

Sha Qidao: “Fifth brother has taught me some lessons, but it’s a pity that I’m a fool and can’t learn.”

Zhao Changhe: “?”

“But I can give the imperial court a batch of small-capacity storage rings, which can be used on a small scale or used for dismantling and research.”

“How small is the capacity? How much is a batch?”

“The capacity is really not big, only a few feet in diameter, it’s just some inferior goods. The quantity…is probably less than a hundred, not much anyway.”

Zhao Changhe’s eyes widened.

Isn’t that much? You are stupid… Sha Qi, I have more storage rings on hand than all the people in the world combined! The capacity is small, and it can support small-scale convenient logistics. Grain and grass cannot be transported, but gold and silver can be transported, and it can be put into use immediately!

Sha Qilongshou said: “We drill a lot of holes. Although high-end items are rare, these relatively low-end items are often obtained, sometimes in batches. The elusiveness of horse bandits in our brotherhood is also partly due to factors It has been used this way for a long time. It does not affect the light equipment if you rob it and take it away. Specifically, I have divided some of it. Of course, if it is used in large-scale wars, let alone me, even if the Brotherhood has collected it all over the years. Peeling it off is not enough, and there is still a possibility of damage and scrapping, so self-research is still necessary.”

Tang Wanzhuang and Zhao Changhe looked at each other. They really didn’t expect such an unexpected surprise. Tang Wanzhuang was overjoyed and said: “Without further delay, please go and pick up a batch of Sha Gongzi and bring it to the workshop. Master Yuanxing will follow me to the workshop. Let’s think about it first.”

Yue Hongling stood up and said: “I will go too. I have experienced the changes in the Kunlun space and have some insights into it. Maybe I can provide some advice. It may also inspire my own sword intent.”

Zhao Changhe also stood up and wanted to go together.

Both women glanced at him with half-smiles: “Although King Zhao has learned a lot, he seems to have no research on this subject. It’s better to rest. If nothing happens, you can go to the palace to see His Majesty.”

Zhao Changhe watched everyone leave speechlessly. He knew what the two women were thinking, so he decided not to follow them… I really didn’t want to copy you, why bother?

I secretly thought that I have also dabbled in space changes. The secret realm of Lao Xia under the Ancestral Temple is very typical, but it has only scratched the surface and I really have no idea how to get the ring. Thirty years to the east of the river and thirty years to the west of the river. I will go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to study later, and I will come out later to scare you to death.

Having said that, Hong Ling seems to be unable to quarrel with anyone, and they get along well… Maybe the main reason is that the scandal between her and herself spread too early, and other people’s psychological construction has been completed long ago, and it is also because It’s hard for people to feel any resistance to such an upright person like her. The only one who can deal a blow to everyone is Baoqin holding the Imperial City in her hand.

Thinking about this, he subconsciously glanced at Baoqin.

This girl actually did not follow Tang Wanzhuang to the workshop. She was sitting at the table with her chin in her hands, looking straight at him, as if in a daze. After being glanced at by him, he lowered his eyes hurriedly as if he was frightened.

Zhao Changhe suddenly discovered that there was no one in the hall at this moment, only himself and Baoqin.

“Um…” Baoqin, who was always sharp-tongued, actually stuttered: “Your Highness, would you like to have some tea?”

As he poured the tea in a hurry, the teacups clinked.

Obviously a man and a woman alone, Zhao Changhe couldn’t think of a way to go wrong, so he couldn’t help but laugh: “Hey, why didn’t you go out with your lady?”

“How can the host leave when there are guests at home? In the past, if a lady was entertaining guests and had to go out temporarily, I would stay there to say hello.”

Zhao Changhe swallowed back his words, “You are also the master.” Such words would hurt the little girl’s heart. It can be said that she and Wanzhuang are inseparable, and she can basically speak for Wanzhuang to the outside world, and she can indeed be regarded as a master.

Just smiled and said: “I am not a guest.”

“Really?” Baoqin looked at him sideways: “Have you married my lady?”

Zhao Changhe: “…”

Baoqin said again: “Even if you don’t mention that, do you know where the utensils here are? Even if you can’t find the place outside Gong, do you still have the nerve to say that you are the master?”

You were stuttering just now, but you are sharp-tongued when you start to sneer at people, right… Zhao Changhe couldn’t laugh or cry, so he took a step forward as if he was going to beat her up with his sleeves rolled up.

Hold Qin’s neck and look up at him.

Zhao Changhe looked down and saw that the little girl had a pouty mouth and bulging breasts… But her eyes seemed to be full of anger and resentment, and she didn’t know how much they contained.

Obviously I had no crooked thoughts before, but now my heart suddenly jumped and my mouth was a little dry.

Why haven’t I noticed before that Baoqin has grown so big and… so beautiful?

Think about it carefully, this is the maid who is the default for evening makeup… It means that she is her own person, and it is normal if she eats it, and she will be blamed if she doesn’t… Why did she completely treat others like her before? Ignored.

Is her angry and resentful eyes just because of the topic just now? What was there to complain about in the previous topic? What was she complaining about?

Why did you read The West Chamber in the evening makeup? Is she hinting at something?

Zhao Changhe suddenly thought of a question – for this society and for the little girl’s own inner understanding, if she is ignored for a long time, or “the master doesn’t want it”, what will be the consequences for her? What would others think of her?

It seems… something will happen. She didn’t even dare to say it openly, and only dared to use the West Chamber to hint at her resentment, because once she said it clearly, there would be no way out, if she was rejected…

Zhao Changhe’s heart skipped a beat. No wonder Wanzhuang deliberately left the two of them alone. This was because Wanzhuang didn’t dare to mention it directly, and he was afraid that he would reject it and jump into the river with Qin in his arms.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment. Zhao Changhe looked at Baoqin intently and thought about something, but Baoqin’s eyes began to panic, his heart beat thumpingly, and he started to stutter again like playing drums in the empty hall: “You, what are you doing? If you want to beat me, then beat me…”

Zhao Changhe said deliberately: “I can hit you at will?”

Bao Qin tilted his head angrily: “I’m just a little maid. King Zhao wants to punish me. What can we do? We can’t just accept it honestly.”

Zhao Changhe stretched out his hand to push her chin back and continued to read.

Bao Qin’s heart almost popped out of his throat. He opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to spray something, but he was choked and couldn’t.

Zhao Changhe leaned over slightly, whispered in her ear: “Why do you read the West Wing for Wanzhuang?”

Baoqin pushed his chest subconsciously, her eyes wandering around. The current posture was too intimate… His breath tickled his ears, making his heart itch as well, as if something was brushing past his heart, making his breathing become messy.

Hmm…there’s really no one around.

She stammered: “What’s wrong with reading, reading in the West Wing… Miss, you haven’t read any leisure books…”

Something touched my cheek and it was hot.

Bao Qin suddenly wanted to run, but as soon as he started to move, he was hugged around the waist to prevent him from running.

Baoqin made a fierce look with angry eyes, trying to scare the other party away. It’s a pity that the stinky bear didn’t accept this trick at all, and chuckled: “I haven’t been punished yet, how can I run away…”

“If you want to fight, then fight, you rude stinky bear… Uh-huh…” Baoqin’s eyes widened.

The lips have been blocked by him.

Sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued, the punishment is of course gagging.

Unexpectedly, it is not harsh at all when kissing, it is soft, fragrant, and slightly sweet.

The little maid who was punished immediately softened, her angry look was gone, and her struggle was gone. She was stunned and motionless, as if she was frightened by the punishment.

In fact, my whole body was electrified, my mind was blank, and I no longer knew who I was.

He kissed me…

How could he kiss me? He didn’t say that Huiqin was beautiful, he didn’t say that he liked Huiqin very much, and he didn’t play the song Phoenix Seeking Phoenix. He just started chewing on it… The stinky bear broke the corn!

Although such thoughts flashed through his mind, his little mouth opened slightly subconsciously, allowing the smelly bear to grab the sweetness.

Then he slowly closed his eyes. His heart, which had been a little angry and panicked, and felt like he had no place to live, slowly fell back, landing at his home.

I remember vaguely that I used to hate him for breaking the strings when he played the piano. He didn’t meet the standard of a elegant and elegant young man who held the piano at all. But gradually, I don’t know why, I felt that this scarred face was the most pleasing to the eye. When you look at the so-called handsome young masters, they are all rotten fish and shrimps.

Because he is really a hero…

You should have wanted me a long time ago…I don’t even want you to play the piano and praise me.

Who knows how it feels to be a maid who has been snatched away from the task of refilling cups by the current emperor…

After a long time, the lips parted.

Baoqin leaned softly in Zhao Changhe’s arms and gasped, and after a long time he muttered: “Master can’t…play with Baoqin.”

“Why am I the master?”

“…If you marry my young lady, you will be my master.”

This poor kid has no one around him, hooks up with his master, and doesn’t even dare to call him husband.

Zhao Changhe couldn’t help laughing: “I don’t want you to change the word.”

“What word…”

“What you want to shout most.”

“Smelly bear.”

Zhao Changhe: “?”

Baoqin’s eyes were wandering around, and he finally found something she could do to change the subject. She immediately pushed his chest and jumped back, and ran to the table to pick up the teapot: “I’ll pour tea. Drink for the master.”

Before he picked up the teapot, he was picked up by the back of his neck. He was turned around half a circle, and his mouth was kissed again: “What kind of tea do you want to drink? Is it good to drink with you?”

The little maid pushed his chest helplessly: “This is the main hall of the Demon Suppression Department… and it’s not a smelly bear.”

She said that, but she couldn’t bear to let go. She took the initiative to kiss her so hard that her eyes gradually became watery.

Zhao Changhe finally hugged her and sat on his lap, sat at the table and smiled: “You have such a scolding mouth, how come it tastes sweet?”

“I only hate those who are not bitter. I will suffer you to death.”

“That won’t work. I’m suffering to death. Who will hold Qin in my arms?”

“There are so many men in the world, who would want you, you stinky bear? If you hadn’t taken advantage of our lady, the maid would have been helpless, who would have wanted you!”

“Okay, okay.” Zhao Changhe said with a smile: “Move the piano over the table and let me play the piano for you, okay?”

Bao Qin felt happy and leaned over to hug Qin over. Bao Qin hugs Qin, Zhao Changhe hugs Bao Qin, the scene is quite a bit of matryoshka philosophy.

I held the piano and put it away. I wanted to get out of my arms and get down to the ground so that he could play the piano well. Zhao Changhe, however, held her tight and refused to let her leave. He smiled and said, “Just play it like this.”

Bao Qin said angrily: “How can you play well like this? You are just perfunctory.”

“My hands are long.” Zhao Changhe smiled and stuck his head out from her shoulder, stretched out his hand to tune the strings, and soon started playing.

The song I wanted to play was “Phoenix Seeking Phoenix”, which was originally meant for courtship.

Zhao Changhe has never played the piano before. He did not learn music, chess, calligraphy or painting. He once learned these things from Wan Zhuang not really for learning, but to “slow down” his mind. He Wanzhuang also wanted to use this to cultivate in him some temperament that a prince should have, but he didn’t expect him to be able to master the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting so carefully.

Zhao Changhe’s demeanor today is different from that in his early years, which does have a lot to do with this. It’s a pity that the army is so rough that he really doesn’t have the time to continue practicing every day.

However, even though she had never practiced, Bao Qin was surprised to find that he played much better than before. In terms of technique alone, he even seemed to be better than her Bao Qin… But his musical literacy was just that, and what he played had no soul. , but it is enough to crush 90% of the luthiers in the world.

It’s very simple. You have already cultivated martial arts to the realm of control. How can this kind of finger-up technique be more difficult than the finger-palm changes in a life-and-death fight? Naturally, it is a master level that is readily available. It is impossible for Tang Wanzhuang to practice piano a lot, but his level is high, and this is the main reason. Of course, Tang Wanzhuang’s musical quality is not on the same level as this bear.

Anyway, Zhao Changhe played the song “Feng Qiu Huang” really beautifully. Bao Qin felt that he had never heard such a beautiful song.

Bao Qin turned his head slightly and looked at him concentrating on playing the piano, not knowing what he was feeling in his heart.

He seems to be proving that he is not a rude and reckless person… and also proving that “I like you”.

But I am just a maid…

The sound of the piano gradually weakened and became silent. Zhao Changhe pressed the strings with his hand and said softly: “Which song do you still want to listen to?”

Bao Qin quickly looked away, lowered his head and said, “How many songs do you know?”

“You all have to listen?”

“Listen to everyone.”

“Then kiss me.”

Baoqin’s face turned red, she turned around and quickly pecked him on the face, then buried her head back.

Unexpectedly, this girl is the one who loves Qin the most.

In the palace in the distance, Xia Chichi was sitting in the royal study, his face as stinking as if he had eaten seventeen or eight rotten duck eggs: “The emperor is ready in the palace and the queen mother is waiting for him. He is playing endlessly. Damn Qin, pick up a little maid!”

“Crackling~” The sound of firecrackers in the distance still continued. Xia Chichi listened, and his face softened. He whispered: “Forget it, he has a rare leisure time. Go and tell him personally that he will have a good time in the palace tonight.” During the Chinese New Year, our family… Tang Wan and Yue Hongling will all come together to celebrate the Chinese New Year. The maid will also be brought here, on the condition that her mouth is not crackling like firecrackers.”

――――

PS: I’m an idiot. I finally asked for leave yesterday, but ended up watching Spring and Autumn all day long and did nothing.

Why is it so beautiful…
