Lu Chen's confidence made the officials confused.
There is no way, because the Master Lu in front of him has created so many miracles.
Both praying for rain and the Holy Grace Pill were beyond their comprehension. Now Master Lu confidently said that building a hundred-foot-high Star-Picking Tower was a piece of cake, and he was even willing to make a bet with that stubborn old man Wei Yong. This made people think carefully, did Master Lu have other magical skills in this aspect of construction?
If Lu Chen really possesses such magical powers, does that mean the entire Da Qi court will really devote all its efforts to supporting him in building a towering building?
Thinking that his treasury was now empty enough to run a horse-drawn carriage, Li Zhuo quickly laughed and said, "We can discuss this later. Why don't we discuss the strategic issues behind the army first?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty, what you said is very reasonable. The rewards for the army must be sent over as soon as possible."
"I think we should hurry up and offer sacrifices to the heavens and ancestors!"
The entire court instantly fell into the previous situation of everyone being happy.
This scene made Lu Chen curl his lips slightly. What princes, ministers, emperors and nobles, are they scared now?
After the grand court meeting ended, Lu Chen returned to the Saint Endan Manufacturing factory. Now this is his base camp and he has absolute control over it.
As soon as he entered the room, the young eunuch Mou Ping came up with a flattering smile and said, "Master Lu, the young prince and Madam Zheng are here."
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and the girl with great tolerance instantly appeared in his mind.
Come to think of it, didn't Miss Yourong say she would work like a slave for me? It really makes me drool.
I have been in Da Qi for a month. Can I get some benefits now?
"How come you two have time to come here today? The environment in Sheng'dan's production workshop is not very good. Please don't offend us."
Just as she finished speaking, Zheng Yourong came out with the little prince Li Xiang in her arms and said, "Master Lu hasn't been to the palace for a while, and the little prince has missed you so much that he asked His Majesty for permission to bring him out of the palace to visit you."
Because he had to treat Li Xiang's illness before, Lu Chen had spent quite a bit of time with her. As a former gold medal salesman, he was not only good at coaxing adults, but also children.
Once, he signed a big deal because he made a client's child very happy.
Looking at Li Xiang, who was still a little frail, Lu Chen grinned and said, "What do you want to play today, little prince?"
After he finished speaking, he added, "We are all family here, Your Highness, there is no need to be restrained."
After these words were spoken, the little prince Li Xiang's eyes became much more lively.
He took two steps forward, took Lu Chen's hand, and said, "Didn't Master Lu promise to show me the magic of summoning a rainbow? How about today?"
The last time Li Xiang didn't want to eat, Lu Chen casually drew a pancake and said that as long as he ate well in the future, he would perform the magic of summoning a rainbow for him. Unexpectedly, the child still remembered it until now.
Zheng Yourong hurriedly hugged Li Xiang and tried to dissuade him, "Your Highness, Master Lu's magical power is very precious. How can we let him waste it on such a trivial matter?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang's eyes dimmed a lot. He nodded obediently and said, "It was my fault."
Lu Chen couldn't help but shook his head. The royal education was indeed a bit perverted. Such a young child was almost educated into a wooden child.
He reached out and patted Li Xiang's head and said, "It's okay, it's just some small things. I told you, you can live freely here with me."
"Go get a basin of water." Lu Chen instructed Mou Ping, then pulled Li Xiang along and said, "Come on, let's go sit upstairs for a while. When we're ready, I'll show you the magic of summoning a rainbow."
Zheng Yourong opened her mouth to say something, but Lu Chen gave her a warm smile and said, "It's okay, come with me."
During this period, Lu Chen also found out that Zheng Yourong was indeed a married woman, but her husband had died in the battlefield before she got married.
Zheng Yourong's identity thus became very embarrassing. Her husband's family disliked her for killing their own child and calling her a jinx and unlucky, so they refused to let her marry.
Her parents felt that since they had already offered three betrothal gifts and six gifts, Zheng Yourong was naturally no longer a member of their family.
When this situation occurred in Da Qi, women basically had only two options left: either find a nunnery to become a nun, or end their life on their own.
Fortunately, Zheng Yourong and Li Xiang's mother, Concubine Chen, were close friends, so Li Xiang's mother brought her to the palace.
Concubine Chen's decision was a help to herself and others. If it weren't for Zheng Yourong, it would have been really difficult for a prince like Li Xiang who lost his mother at a young age to grow up in that turbulent harem.
Even this cold has many suspicious points to investigate.
So when we say that a person is beautiful because of his or her natural beauty, it is not a noble character that is formed after giving birth to a child.
The so-called wet nurse is just a title. When Zheng Yourong gets older, it will be convenient for the little prince to take care of her.
The treatment of ordinary nannies and wet nurses is like heaven and earth, and because of this relationship, Concubine Chen felt that Zheng Yourong would be more attentive in taking care of Li Xiang.
As for whether this will ruin Zheng Yourong's reputation, how will she get married in the future? Please stop making a fuss. She has already been labeled as a jinx who brings bad luck to her husband, so why keep thinking about these things?
With such sighs, the three of them quickly went up to the third floor. After entering Lu Chen's office, Li Xiang looked around curiously and said, "Master, is this where you practice Taoism? It looks very different from ordinary Taoist temples."
Lu Chen thought to himself, of course it’s different, because I never thought about becoming an immortal. Have you ever seen an immortal holding a protractor and a triangle ruler in his hands all day long?
He picked up an object from the table with a smile, threw it to Li Xiang and said, "Here's a little toy for you."
Li Xiang took the long tube and fiddled with it in her hands. Then she looked at Lu Chen in astonishment and said, "Master, please tell me what this is and how to use it."
Lu Chen pointed to the window and said, "Put the narrow end to your eyes. Then you'll understand."
Li Xiang had a tense face, nodded as if she understood, and walked to the window. Following Lu Chen's instructions, she put one end of the tube in front of her eyes, and then she couldn't help but scream.
Zheng Yourong had been accompanying him the entire time. Seeing this, she was so frightened that her heart trembled. She hurried forward and asked, "Little Prince, are you okay? Is it because you don't have the magic power to use this immortal magic weapon? Did it backfire? Are you feeling unwell?"
As she spoke, Zheng Yourong glanced at Lu Chen with a resentful look on her face, just like a wife blaming her unreliable husband.
Just this simple glance made Lu Chen's soul fly away.
This little girl is so seductive!
At this time, Li Xiang also recovered from his shock. Then, as if he had discovered the secret of this world, he pulled Zheng Yourong with ecstasy and said, "Madam Zheng, it's a magic, it's clairvoyance!"
