Chapter 400: The grand scene of boiling oil in a raging fire (tears begging for reward!)
"Fourth Young Master, congratulations!"

The incident of Hu Hai was just an insignificant episode in this New Year's celebration. After enjoying a few more performances, Tianxuan, who was very quiet, left his seat with a wine jar and walked leisurely in the hall. When he met Zhang Han, Meng Tian and other comrades, Tianxuan, whose status had changed, did not put on airs and toasted and chatted with these people as usual.

Suddenly, a seemingly clear voice, but with a hint of sarcasm, sounded in Tianxuan's ears.

Tian Xuan, who was a little drunk, turned his head and saw the handsome face of the Imperial Censor Han Fei. However, the look in Han Fei's eyes was less friendly and more jealous than before.

Although Tianxuan was drunk, his mind was still clear. When their eyes met, Tianxuan knew why Han Fei treated him in this way: "Master Han Fei, are you jealous that I will soon let Nanyue become my mother?"

Tian Xuan worked hard in the backyard for several months and successfully got Nong Yu pregnant. Three days ago, Nong Yu felt unwell and asked a doctor to treat her. The doctor confirmed that she was one month pregnant. Although Nong Yu was a little old when she got pregnant, the fetus was still very healthy.

"That's right." Han Fei admitted confidently, "Fourth Master, actually when I first knew that you took Zi Nu and Nan Yu as concubines, I didn't take it seriously. Because I knew that they were guarding for 'him', and they became your concubines just to deal with others."

Halfway through his words, Han Fei's handsome face revealed a strong unwillingness.

"But, what I could not have imagined was that they were so desperate that they actually became your concubines! If I had known this would happen, I should have..."

Under the stimulation of alcohol, Han Fei, who was once a romantic young man, dared to say anything.

“So what?” Although Tian Xuan did not dislike Han Fei and even admired him a little, he was still amused when he heard this and continued the conversation with a smile.

"I should have prepared a generous gift and sent it to your house, the Fourth Young Master." Han Fei shuddered when he met Tianxuan's eyes and quickly changed his words.

"That's pretty much it."

Tianxuan was very satisfied with Han Fei's reaction. He picked up the wine bottle and clinked it with Han Fei's, then left with a smug look on his face.

call!
Watching Tianxuan disappear from his sight, Han Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Han Fei, you are quite sensible!" After Tianxuan went away, Li Si, who was not far away, came to Han Fei and teased.

Han Fei rolled his eyes at Li Si and said, "If I don't change my words, the fists will hit me."

"Gongshu Chou, is my scabbard ready?"

The Four Seas Return to One Hall covers a large area, which is no less than the square in Tianxuan's previous life. At the beginning, the singers, dancers, and musicians raised by the Music Bureau appeared one after another. As time went on, several performances were presented in front of the civil and military officials. Among them, there were both realistic and fantasy acrobatics, graceful and beautiful music, and dances from various Eastern countries.

Today was a big day for the New Year, and Zheng Ge allowed the court officials to be unrestrained. Including the princes and princesses such as Tianxuan, almost everyone left their seats one after another, and walked around freely in the Sihai Guiyi Hall, which was solemn and sacred in the past, or enjoyed their favorite performances, or chatted with some familiar and friendly people.

The entire Sihai Guiyi Hall was transformed into a bustling square, filled with a lively and festive atmosphere.

[This is the glory of the Qin Empire! ]

Tianxuan looked indifferent, with clear eyes, seeing the prosperous scene of the Four Seas Returning to One Palace. Combining the news reported by Yexiao, Tianxuan seemed to see the flourishing Great Qin Empire, and this thought came to his mind. The feedback was reflected on his face, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible smile.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Tianxuan noticed the head of the Gongshu family in the crowd, the chief craftsman of the general - Gongshu Chou! Gongshu Chou, who lost his legs and an arm due to practicing the domineering mechanical art, had to use bronze mechanical hands and feet to replace his flesh and blood body. No matter where he appeared, he was as conspicuous as a crane among chickens. In the past few days, Tianxuan was in the mansion. Because Nongyu was pregnant, he had to deal with the jealous women such as Yan Fei and Yue Shen. Outside the mansion, Tianxuan wanted to seize the throne. On this festive day of the New Year, he needed to consolidate his power. Zheng Ge even issued an edict, ordering him to organize the New Year celebrations with Fusu and others.

Due to multiple factors, Tianxuan was so busy that he forgot a very important thing. In the crowd, he noticed Gongshu Chou and several officials who were also good at casting machinery, and an idea suddenly occurred to him.

Immediately, Tianxuan strode towards Gongshu Chou, talking as he walked.

"Fourth Young Master."

"Greetings to the Fourth Young Master."

"I've met the Fourth Young Master."

……

Even though the hall was filled with noise, Tianxuan's words still broke through the chaotic environment, like a lightning that cut through the darkness, and fell into the ears of Gongshu Chou and others, shocking them and making them change their expressions. Seeing Tianxuan coming towards them, they hurriedly bowed and paid their respects.

"No need to be so polite." Tianxuan waved to Gongshu Chou and others. A flexible force acted on everyone and helped them up.

"Fourth Young Master," Gongshu Chou stood up straight, a proud look on his haggard face, "Your scabbard has been forged. It will take another three days to polish it to ensure that it will not damage the divine sword Hongming. I will personally deliver it to your house."

"No need." Tian Xuan heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that the scabbard had been forged. He shook his head when he heard that Gongshu Chou would personally deliver it to his house. "Mr. Gongshu, I will leave Xianyang in a few days to carry out a mission. When the time comes, you can take the Hongming Sword and leave with me."

"I understand." When Gongshu Chou heard Tianxuan say this, a solemn look appeared on his thin face and he nodded heavily.

"Mr. Gongshu," after pressing down the Hongming Knife, Tianxuan turned his gaze to the officials standing with Gongshuchou who were also skilled in forging mechanisms, and asked Gongshuchou with great interest, "Who are these people?"

"Fourth Young Master, let me introduce you to them." Gongshu Chou smiled sinisterly, stretched out his intact right hand, pointed at the people present, and introduced them to Tianxuan one by one. "This one is from the Yanshi lineage, and his name is Baili Qing."

"This person, named Meng Bai, is..."

"Fourth Young Master, my name is Yong Yu!"

...............

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Gongshu Chou is the world's top master of machinery and casting. Those who can get together with him are also top talents in machinery and casting. Tianxuan wanted to show his goodwill, so these people did not dare to put on airs and greeted Tianxuan.

"Masters, I am honored to receive your respects."

The memories of past lives told Tianxuan how these professionals, who would be dismissed as gimmicky and cunning in the future, could influence a country. Although the masters, including Gongshu Chou, were humble, Tianxuan did not put on airs. He personally toasted, bent his waist, pulled out some of his increasingly blurred memories of past lives, and discussed these professional knowledge with these people, winning their praise.
