Daqin: After marrying a vegetative princess, I went crazy with joy

Chapter 294 The Inconspicuous Little Bamboo Tube

Xiaoxi quickly stepped off the stage, took the box from Fusu, and carefully presented it to His Majesty.

When Ying Zheng took out the cup, the courtiers who were close to him all let out bursts of exclamation.

Carving a rhinoceros horn into a cup is a very difficult task, and the one presented by Fusu is different.

The body of the cup is surrounded by a huge dragon, winding up, looking extremely mighty.

I have to say that Fusu's gift really took a lot of thought.

The young masters standing beside him are all in a bad mood.

Brother, it's just a gift, who are you trying to kill?
Rhino horns are inherently valuable, but after they are made into cups, the value is multiplied several times.

Coupled with the dragon-shaped pattern on the body of the cup, it directly shows the identity of the emperor.

With this thing in front, what can they come up with to compare?
Thinking about what I had prepared, I suddenly felt a little frustrated.

"Not bad, you bothered!"

Seeing that Ying Zheng still only praised him verbally, the young masters finally breathed a sigh of relief.

One by one, they followed behind Liu Bai and offered their gifts.

Although it couldn't compare to the Rhino Horn Cup, Ying Zheng still didn't hesitate to praise him.

After all, they are all their own sons, so they have to give some face.

This result is already very good for the young masters, after all they all know in their hearts that they are not as good as Fusu at all.

Especially Hu Hai, who had just received a beating, and his injuries are still not healed!
The gift that I have been looking for for a long time can finally be presented today.

I have been hoping in my heart that this will make my father pay more attention to him, at least not to be angry with him again.

Unexpectedly, he died before leaving the teacher!
After Fusu said the words "rhinoceros horn cup", Hu Hai's heart turned cold.

The things I searched for for several months turned into a pile of waste in an instant...

However, although his gift is not as good as that of his elder brother, he is confident that it can compare with that of other young masters.

Unexpectedly, after offering it with confidence, he still only got a compliment from his father.

Moreover, the father seemed a little tired, and his praise was much quieter.

Hu Hai held back his tears and stood behind the young masters, constantly lamenting his bad luck.

Such a good opportunity was once again missed by him!
At this moment, Liu Bai was the only one in the hall who did not present a gift.

All the courtiers just stared at him, and some quick-witted ones, such as Li Si and others, had eyes full of expectation.

Although Fusu's temperament has changed, they all know that the eldest son is not the kind of person who escapes.

If it can force him to break the rules, he has to stand up and offer gifts in advance.

It is conceivable that what Liu Bai prepared was against the sky.

The scene of offering the treasure back then is still vivid in my mind, is it going to happen again at this moment?
As for the slow ones, they just want to wait for Liu Bai to finish the procedure, and then hurry back to rest.

Before dawn, they had already arrived at the palace.

Looking at the current sky, although the clouds are overcast and it seems to be raining, it is almost noon.

Not only are they tired, they are also hungry!
At the same time, they also want to see what this son-in-law can come up with.

If it is not satisfactory, someone will inevitably ridicule him.

After all, when he recommended Zhang Ping, he belittled everyone for nothing.

However, Zhang Ping won the favor of His Majesty just now, so it's not easy for them to target others, right?
But Liu Bai was different.

For so long, everyone has seen His Majesty's reliance on you.

If you can't come up with something that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the rhino horn cup, you will naturally gossip.

Therefore, there are not a few courtiers waiting to see the joke.

Ying Zheng naturally understood this truth, and at the same time, he also knew that there were not many things that could compare to the Rhino Horn Cup.

It's just that he didn't want to say much at the moment, he just looked at Liu Bai quietly.

At the same time, I have made a decision in my heart, no matter what he sent, I must praise him more.

Liu Bai didn't know that his father had already thought so much, even thought of how to help him save face.

He straightened his clothes and walked out slowly. After standing still, he took out a small bamboo tube from his sleeve.

"Father, this is a gift from my son! Although this thing is small, but my son has spent a lot of time trying to make it..."

Ying Zheng looked at Liu Bai, and then at the object in his hand, doubting his eyes for a moment.

I know you have been out and about for a while and have no time to prepare gifts.

At the same time, I also know that Man'er is pregnant, and I'm afraid she doesn't have the energy to prepare gifts.

but……

Is it really okay for you to use such a little thing to perfunctory me?

The courtiers took a closer look at the object in his hand, and found that it was just an ordinary bamboo, and they were a little puzzled.

You can't even put a writing brush in it, can you?

Fusu, who was closest to him, was even more puzzled by Monk Zhanger at this time.

A piece of bamboo tube, you actually said it is better than my rhino horn cup?

I've looked at it seven or eight times, but I still haven't found anything great about him...

Had I known this, I wouldn't have traded with you!
Thinking of this, I began to worry in my heart.

Now everyone's eyes in the palace are focused on Liu Bai.

If he loses his face, to some extent, it means that the royal family loses his face.

Even in the eyes of those who don't know the truth, they may feel that they already know what the gift from Liu Bai is.

Knowing that it was not as good as her own gift, she deliberately changed the order with him, embarrassing him.

At that time, not only Liu Bai, but also all the princes of the royal family will be dragged into the water.

Shaking his head, he waved away the inexplicable thoughts in his head.

Fusu looked at Liu Bai worriedly again, thinking about the solution in his heart.

How can I get him to step down without being too embarrassing...

Just as all parties were contemplating, Li Si stepped out.

"My son-in-law, please forgive me for my poor eyesight. From my point of view, this is just a very ordinary bamboo tube. I don't know if there is another mystery in it. Please ask my son-in-law to explain to me!"

Hearing his question, the courtiers all pricked up their ears.

Some people who suffered from Liu Bai's hands, such as Feng Quji, felt from the bottom of their hearts that it was impossible for him to just send a bamboo tube to His Majesty.

Seeing him open his mouth at this moment, they all held their breath, waiting for his answer.

Stretching the bamboo tube in his hand towards Li Si, Liu Bai said with a smile.

"Could it be that Li Xiang is old, what mystery can a bamboo tube have? He is really just an ordinary bamboo tube. If you don't believe me, touch it..."

Li Si, who had kindly rescued him from the siege, became angry instantly and kept giving him winks.

Little ancestor, don't you look at where this is and what occasion it is, so hurry up and use it if you have the ability!
Seeing that Liu Bai ignored him at all, he insisted on letting him touch him.

Li Si stretched out his hand helplessly and held the bamboo tube in his hand.

As soon as I started, I felt wrong.

How can a piece of bamboo tube be so heavy, there must be a mystery in it.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Liu Bai looking at him with a half-smile, and said slowly.

"Master Prime Minister, you must remember the feeling at this moment, you are the first person to meet him besides me!"

Not knowing what he meant, Li Si could only smile helplessly.

After all, this son-in-law has never been a master who plays cards according to common sense.

No matter what is said, if you don’t understand it, listen to it first, and you will gradually understand it in the future...
