"My servants are waiting to serve Miss Zhou." A group of attendants bowed and said in unison. ¡° Being able to have the attendants from Prince Mo¡¯s Mansion come to the restaurant to wait on him shows Wu Zhe¡¯s current status. Among them were several guards with star level Xuanqi, who also bowed down very respectfully. This is rarely seen in officialdom or in the world. After all, a star warrior has a good status, and it is impossible for him to serve a woman so wholeheartedly. But Wu Zhe now has the status to accept it calmly. He was still a so-called celebrity before, but now he has legitimately served as an imperial envoy. It can be said that his status as a person of great importance to Emperor Xuanwu has been confirmed. Not to mention the power of a fox or a tiger, just the slight fluctuation of nine-star profound energy emanating from Wu Zhe's body has already convinced the warrior. "Thank you for your hard work, everyone." Wu Zhe sipped the tea and nodded casually. She also knows when to maintain her identity. You cannot always be approachable, otherwise the following mistakes will easily occur. The guards among the attendants stood respectfully around to serve as guards, while some of the attendants responsible for taking care of and serving went to the restaurant kitchen, and some to clean up the restaurant's environment appropriately. The nature of interpersonal relationships in Prince Mo¡¯s Mansion is completely different from that in Yuanzhu Palace. The former is the foundation of the prince and even the future prince. The order of honor and inferiority cannot be violated. It is a place where status is the first in the world. The latter is a gentle place for women. Although the level cannot be ignored, status restrictions can be relaxed appropriately. Wu Zhe was waiting here leisurely, while the two guards under Emperor Xuanwu returned to the palace. The two guards had already opened the gifts from Wu Zhe on their way out. As soon as I opened the little bag, I could smell the aroma. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was a Huixiang Pill that could help condense Xuan Qi, and he was immediately overjoyed. "This is a top-quality thing, such a generous gift for your hard work." The two guards exchanged glances with each other and secretly raised their thumbs: Zhou Zhiruo is really interesting. In fact, these elixirs, which are precious even to the royal guards, are like popcorn-level snacks to Wu Zhe. After all, she had raided one of the palace's medicine warehouses. The refining and preparation of various elixirs had the help of the control of the evolved body. Not to mention the daily production of tens of thousands of kilograms, it would not be a problem to produce hundreds of pills every day. The two nine-star guards went to report the news to Wu Zhe even more diligently. ¡°You only need to state Zhou Zhiruo¡¯s name. The stewards of the inner palace worked as quickly as if they had received an imperial decree. Emperor Xuanwu quickly received a piece of paper from Wu Zhetuo's bodyguard. "What's so weird about this girl?" Emperor Xuanwu opened it curiously. Princess Qing, who was co-director on the desk at the side, also glanced over curiously with the corner of her eye. "Girl Qing, you are very concerned about Zhou Zhiruo's news." Emperor Xuanwu teased his daughter: "Just now the inner guard came to report that she had contact with the eldest prince's think tank, and she also took the initiative to invite Master Maitreya. This But" "This is extremely disrespectful to your father!" Princess Qing raised her eyebrows. He looked very angry. Emperor Xuanwu looked at Princess Qing's deliberate look and smiled slightly. Knowing that she actually came to help Zhou Zhiruo on purpose, he stopped talking and said instead: "She sent the paper. She must be here to explain this matter. Let¡¯s see how she handles this matter.¡± When she opened the paper, she saw that there was no word on it, just a picture. "Huh?" With Emperor Xuanwu's determination, he couldn't help but be surprised. Princess Qing had already glanced sideways, her eyes widening in surprise. A piece of bamboo. Bamboo painted in ink. Emperor Xuanwu looked at this painting for a while, and couldn't help but praise: "The bamboo joints are very straight and steep, and they actually have the appearance of mountains. The thick and dark colors of the bamboo leaves are so subtle and surprising." Princess Qing's eyes were full of brilliant colors, and she could not imagine her own. My sweetheart will also draw such excellent works. As a young lady, Princess Qing is naturally interested in painting. The high standard of this painting can be seen at a glance. If you send this painting to the academy. It will definitely make those painters exclaim again and again, and they will not be able to eat for several days. I have never seen such a bamboo painting technique before. It can even be said that no one has ever painted it like this! Princess Qing defined this painting in her mind more definitely than Emperor Xuanwu. If you have time, you and Zhiruo should learn from each other on painting skills. Princess Qing's heart was filled with ripples, and she even imagined herself and her beside the bamboo forest, holding a pen and ink in hand, elegantly asking for advice on painting skills. In fact, Wu Zhe shamelessly copied Zheng Banqiao¡¯s bamboo painting technique. Zheng Banqiao¡¯s bamboo is naturally the best in the world. I dare not say it is the best in the world, but it is definitely the pinnacle. Even if Wu Zhe is just an imitation, it cannot reach the level of his paintings.His true essence is enough to shock the painting world. "Bamboo" Emperor Xuanwu glanced at Princess Qing, whose face was starting to turn red. He didn't point it out, but frowned slightly and thought about why Zhou Zhiruo sent such a bamboo painting. He quickly thought of a potted plant he had given to Prince Mo. That is a rootless flower, a peony that is about to fail. Lenovo's power invited Zhou Zhiruo, and she sent a piece of bamboo to report the news. Could it be that it corresponds to my own previous hint? Emperor Xuanwu looked carefully at the bamboo painting in front of him. The bamboo has only one stem, and there are no bamboo shoots around it. Anyone with a little bit of bamboo knowledge will know that the emergence of bamboo shoots lies in the roots. If there are no roots, it will be difficult for the bamboo to produce new shoots. Could it be that this is also a bamboo without roots? Emperor Xuanwu looked at it for a long time and understood the hidden meaning of Wu Zhe's painting: Bamboo without roots. But bamboo is different from the peony flowers given by Emperor Xuanwu. The most important point is: bamboo can live without roots! Peonies will die without roots. But bamboo has a high probability of continuing to live without a root system. Oh I got it! An idea flashed in Emperor Xuanwu's mind, and he figured out Wu Zhe's plan. "Hahaha, only I can guess the answer to this riddle." Emperor Xuanwu figured out Wu Zhe's little riddle and couldn't help but secretly laugh: young people are very competitive. Especially the little girl, she must come up with a puzzle for me. After thinking for a moment, Emperor Xuanwu sighed again: "If that's the case, there's no need to worry about it." Emperor Xuanwu handed the painting to Princess Qing, who had been staring at it for a long time, no longer caring about being reserved, and then ordered the royal guards: " I told the commander-in-chief of Zhou that I was right." The guards followed the instructions and left. Princess Qing was still a little confused. Looking at the painting, she couldn't figure out what Emperor Xuanwu realized and what he was saying. Emperor Xuanwu did not say anything and continued to deal with state affairs leisurely. Princess Qing couldn't think of the peonies given to her by the emperor for a moment, and she didn't even know that the peonies in the pot had no roots. She couldn't figure it out. When the guards arrived at the restaurant, Wu Zhe happened to be polite to Master Maitreya. (~^~)
