The night passed quickly
Early in the morning, Ji Chen picked up his brush and sketched on the paper
And this painting is the whole day
He had drawn at least a thousand sketches in one day.
Moreover, he had no intention of stopping. He continued to draw tirelessly.
Ye Hongyi went to Ji Chen's room early in the morning and sat beside him to watch him draw.
At first, she was still focused on the painting, but soon she lost her patience.
After all, no sixteen-year-old girl could stand such a boring thing.
Later, she stopped looking at the painting and focused on Ji Chen's side profile.
The more she looked at it, the more she liked it, the more obsessed she became.
The smile on her delicate face never stopped.
At this moment, it was almost dusk, and the sky was gradually darkening…
Ji Chen finished drawing the last stroke on the paper.
The image of a veiled woman with a sword in her hand jumped out of the paper
"Fortunately, I learned how to sketch. Otherwise, it would have been difficult today.”
Ji Chen smiled as he looked at his work.
"However, there seems to be something missing.”
Ji Chen thought about it, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Then, he picked up his brush and wrote a poem on the drawing paper.
When the last word fell
Ji Chen's face turned red as he laughed unkindly.
This poem was a little provocative.
"Brother, aren't you going to draw anymore?"
Ye Hongyi asked, not satisfied.
If it was possible, she would not get tired of looking at it for the entire night.
Yes!
Ji Chen reached out and ruffled Hong Yi's hair.
"It's almost done now."
After saying that, he rolled up the scroll on the desk and looked at the slightly yellow sky with a smile on his lips.
At this moment, a maid outside the door reminded him,
"Fuma, Princess Chang Le's birthday banquet is about to begin. The Eldest Princess said that you can set off.”
Ji Chen nodded his head and gave Hong Yi a simple explanation before leaving the East Emperor Manor.
...........
Princess Changle's birthday banquet was set at the Purple Smoke Pavilion in the palace.
Ji Chen arrived at the entrance of the majestic palace and took out the invitation that Long Xian Er had given him.
After that, he entered the palace without any obstructions…
On the way to the Purple Smoke Pavilion
Ji Chen carefully memorized every corner he had walked through.
"There should be a minute and a half between the Imperial Guards 'patrol.”
"There are at least nine obscure auras in the Imperial Palace."
"In other words, there are more Legend rank experts in the palace besides the Storms of the Eight Directions.”
"High Heaven Pavilion is located in the northeast corner of the Imperial Palace.”
...........
Finally, I arrived at the Purple Smoke Pavilion.
As expected, it was just as Ji Chen had expected.
The Purple Smoke Pavilion was a banquet venue specially built for the royal family. It could be said to be extremely luxurious.
Golden pillars and dragons circled around the palace. Red carpets covered the entire palace. The crystal clear decorations were extremely dazzling.
Inside the Purple Smoke Pavilion, many luxuriously dressed Tang nobles were already seated…
Although Ji Chen didn't know any of them,
However, the moment Ji Chen stepped into the Purple Smoke Pavilion, many people looked over.
These nobles of the Sheng Tang Empire were very curious.
She wondered where this beautiful young man came from. Why was it her first time seeing him?
Many of the young ladies from the prestigious families of the Saint Tang Empire also secretly looked over.
He was not only amazed in his heart, what a handsome young man with an outstanding temperament, I wonder if he is married?
Ji Chen didn't know what these people were thinking.
After he entered the Purple Smoke Pavilion, he followed the seating arrangement on the invitation card.
He walked straight to the highest seat of the Purple Smoke Pavilion and sat down.
Hiss!
When everyone saw where Ji Chen was sitting, they were all shocked!
The seating arrangement for this banquet was based on the status and power of the dignitaries.
Ji Chen's high position was reserved for the number one warlord clan of the Saint Tang Empire, the Donghuang Clan.
At this moment, everyone understood.
"So he's the one who's been in the limelight recently, the one who instantly killed the Legend rank Immortal Execution Swordmaster with a single move at the Star Condensation level, Ji Chen!”
"I heard that his Angry Buddha Lotus Flame has already become a god on the continent!”
"Cough! I was wondering when such a stunning young man came to Chang 'an. It turns out that he is the Master of the God-killing Sword!”
"What a pity, what a pity. My daughter likes him very much, but he is now the son-in-law of the Donghuang family.“
"Who doesn't? My daughter likes him too, so that silkpants girl from the Donghuang family is lucky.”
At this moment, the entire Purple Smoke Pavilion was in a heated discussion with Ji Chen's arrival…
It was as if everyone's eyes were on Ji Chen, intentionally or unintentionally.
He had become the talk of the banquet.
"As expected, people are afraid of being famous!"
Ji Chen shook his head and took a sip of the wine in his glass.
He ignored the gazes that were directed at him.
His mind was constantly thinking about how to accurately implement every step of his plan.
"His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
"The Prime Minister's son, Li Yuanfang, has arrived."
The guard shouted at the door.
Everyone stood up and faced the door.
At this moment, a handsome man in a luxurious white jade brocade robe walked in first.
Beside him was a handsome and refined man.
And he was obviously the son of the Prime Minister of the Great Tang, Li Yuanfang.
Other than Ji Chen, all the nobles bowed…
"So this is the Prince of Saint Tang, Long Jiancheng, whose head was shaved by Donghuang Liyue!”
Ji Chen drank another cup of wine and muttered to himself.
As for the other one, it was interesting…
The Prime Minister's son, Li Chengyuan…
At the age of three, he read ancient books, at the age of seven, he was proficient in music, and at the age of ten, he could write poems in seven steps.
He was known as the number one genius of the Holy Tang Dynasty.
Most importantly, he had always admired Princess Chang Le, Long Xian Er.
"Today seems to be interesting!"
Ji Chen took a sip of his wine and a faint smile appeared on his face.
It was as if he had already foreseen something interesting.
"His Majesty the Emperor has arrived."
"The Empress has arrived."
"Princess Chang Le has arrived."
At this moment, the real big shots arrived…
Long Yuan, who was dressed in a dragon robe, was holding the hand of an elegant and beautiful woman.
With his right hand holding onto Princess Chang Le's Long Xian 'er, he walked into the Purple Smoke Pavilion.
At this moment, everyone stood up and knelt down to welcome the arrival of the Emperor.
"Welcome, Your Majesty!"
However, Ji Chen still did not kneel. He stood up and bowed slightly to the Emperor and Empress.
At this moment, he seemed particularly abrupt!
Everyone glanced at Ji Chen from the corner of their eyes, wondering why this guy was so bold.
He actually dared to not kneel when he saw the emperor!
Wasn't this courting death?
"Your Majesty, my master has instructed Ji Chen not to kneel to the heavens or to kneel to the earth, but only to his parents and teacher.“
Ji Chen had a faint smile on his face, and his tone was very calm. It was as if he was really entrusted by his master, and he had no intention of kneeling down and bowing.
Haha!
Long Yuan smiled and waved his hand indifferently.
"It's fine. Everyone, rise!"
Although he said that, a hint of vigilance flashed across his heart…
He had long suspected that Ji Chen had an extremely powerful force behind him.
After all, Ji Chen had become the Swordmaster of the Celestial Eradication Swordmaster at such a young age, and he was even able to kill Legends at a higher level.
He would have found it strange if no one had nurtured him. Today, he had confirmed it.
Because even the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets could not find out Ji Chen's background.
There were only two possibilities…
First, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets really couldn't find anything.
Secondly, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets knew but didn't dare to say it.
All these years, Long Yuan knew that the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had concealed many things.
This was also the reason why those old fellows on the continent did not immediately jump out to snatch the Immortal Slaying Sword.
"This young and handsome man must be the most influential person in the continent recently, the Immortal Execution Swordmaster, Ji Chen!”
Empress White Snow looked at Ji Chen with a faint smile.
"Reporting to the Empress, I am Ji Chen.”
Ji Chen smiled and nodded in response.
"Good! That was great! What an elegant young man!"
Queen White Snow looked at Ji Chen with satisfaction and nodded.
When Ji Chen saw how the Empress was looking at him, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
That's right, this gaze was exactly the same as the gaze that his cheap father-in-law, Donghuang Junlei, had when he looked at him.
Why?
The Empress wanted to make him her son-in-law?
