Chapter 275 At the Banquet
The imperial palace of Sakura Kingdom is not far from the Uesugi family. As soon as Cao Xiaochun and his two men went out, they saw carriages driving on the main road. Judging from the signs on the carriages, many of them came from various major cities.
At this moment, the carriage of the Uesugi family has been prepared. Except for the ancestors of the Seven Meridians, only the four matrons and the top five younger generations are eligible to participate. As for Uesugi Nagatoyo, he is not interested in this matter.
I heard from Uesugiya that after the invitation was sent, Uesugi Nagatoyo didn't even leave the door of the secret room.
Cao Xiaochun and Taogu Liya couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the Seven Meridians ancestors, so they rode in the same carriage with them.
"Shui Sang, I'm sorry for letting you down with your elixir!"
As soon as he got on the carriage, the ancestor of the earth line, Uesugi Jin, knelt on the ground and said very ashamedly.
"Ancestor Jin, what do you mean?"
Seeing this, Cao Xiaochun was inexplicably confused. You are so polite. Why do you, the Sakura Empire, kneel so much? Is it a habit?
"Haha, third brother, didn't you give me two Dark Vein Breaking Pills last time? I exchanged them for the ancestors of Earth Vein and Fire Vein. Unfortunately, the Fire Vein Ancestor only broke through to Half Saint. As for the Earthline Ancestor, the breakthrough failed..."
Uesugimiya shook his head and said helplessly.
This thing is originally a huge opportunity, and the probability is really high. You just can't directly enter the Saint level, and the Half-Saint has to break through, right?
As a result, if I eat it for you, it will cause a lot of noise, but it will be of no use at all. Can't you make some adjustments beforehand and be prepared to make a breakthrough again?
Regarding this, Uesugi Jin was laughed to death by the other lines. If I give you a chance, you will be useless!
Hearing Uesugijin's explanation, Cao Xiaochun smiled. These pills had been manipulated by themselves. You'd be damned if you could break through them so easily.
You did this just once, how many more times will you do it, and you won’t commit suicide by committing seppuku?
"Hey, I thought it was something. Isn't it just a pill? If it doesn't work this time, just try harder next time."
Cao Xiaochun smiled heartily and supported Uesugi Jin.
"However, this breakthrough failed. According to my guess, it should be due to insufficient qi and blood. Master Jin, you need to replenish your qi and blood."
"Just in time, I started refining pills today, and I also refined a lot of Qi and Blood Pills. I'll give you three of them."
As Cao Xiaochun spoke, he took out a jade bottle and placed it in Uesugi Jin's hand.
Looking at the bottle of elixir, a trace of envy flashed in the eyes of the other ancestors of the Six Meridians. Damn it, even if the breakthrough fails, how can you pretend to be pitiful and get the elixir?
Uesugijin, you deserve to die!
"Water Master, how can I repay you for this?"
Uesugi Jin was stunned for a moment after getting the elixir. Who said Emperor Shuihan was stingy and petty?
If I want to know who spread the rumor, I will shock him to death with one palm!
"Okay, we have to attend the banquet later, so be careful about your image."
Uesugi Miyafeng said calmly that he was now cooperating with Cao Xiaochun, and he had no shortage of elixirs. After all, all elixirs had to pass through the hands of him and Uesugi Nobuyoshi.
"Third brother, we started refining alchemy again today. Do you plan to add more elixirs for this month?"
Uesugi Kyouyoshi's focus is not on the blood elixir, but on Cao Xiaochun's refining the elixir. So can't they make more money this month?
He has tasted the sweetness and knows how much profit there is in it. Even if he only has 10% of the shares, it is still an astronomical figure!
"The share cannot be changed. If there are more pills, the price will probably become lower."
Cao Xiaochun shook his head.
"The reason why I started refining alchemy today is, firstly, to prepare a birthday gift for the emperor. Secondly, I like to make friends, so I always have to prepare something in my daily interactions."
"So two eldest brothers, I'm sorry this time."
"make friends?"
Uesugi Palace was a little confused about Cao Xiaochun's words. What kind of friends are worth making with this kind of elixir?
And that birthday gift, even though the emperor is a demigod, he is still a royal family. He deserves Cao Xiaochun to open it for him alone? He has a few!
Although Uesugi Kyouyoshi was a little regretful about this, he didn't think much about it. Anyway, there was no shortage of elixirs in Linmai. As for whether Cao Xiaochun used the elixirs to make friends or to deceive the little girl, it was none of his business.
"The third brother is very interested in the royal family, and he doesn't hesitate to make a special elixir."
Uesugimiya thought for a while and said calmly.
"Look at what eldest brother said, we are good brothers who share our hearts and souls. A pill is nothing, so why should eldest brother be angry?"
"What's the benefit? My first thought will definitely be you and the Uesugi family. You can rest assured about this."
Lying comfortably on Taogu Liya, Cao Xiaochun said indifferently.
He just discovered today that Uesugiya's mind is extremely small.
After chatting for half an hour, the carriage arrived outside the palace gate. Uesugi Palace only showed a token, so the guards guarding the city waived inspection and let them go directly.
The birthday banquet was held in the back garden of the palace. According to Uesugi Palace, the palace was completely rebuilt in the style of the Tang Dynasty. It took the efforts of three generations of monarchs to achieve such a scale.
The back garden is even more like a fairyland on earth.
When Cao Xiaochun got off the car, a luxurious garden appeared in front of him.
The forest garden occupies a large area and is planted with all kinds of luxurious flowers, plants and trees. Many of these are medicinal materials that are beneficial to the human body. If you put any of them outside, they will be sold at a very high price. .
The surrounding fence is made of jade. If you look closely at the continuous rockery, you will find that they are all precious minerals.
The garden is already crowded with people. Rows of tables are neatly arranged on both sides, forming a wide passage. Beautiful maids shuttle around like butterflies.
Under the interweaving of moonlight and lights, the entire garden is like a fairyland on earth, extremely luxurious.
Cao Xiaochun took a rough look. From the main seat down, there are at least eighty tables, which also means that all the nobles of the Great Sakura Kingdom should be present tonight.
"Third brother, our seat is in the third row on the left of the throne. Let's go first. The birthday banquet is about to begin."
Uesugi nods with satisfaction at the layout in front of him and invites Cao Xiaochun to move forward.
When he arrived at the position, Cao Xiaochun found that most of the people in this area were watching. Although there were some middle-aged people, they were definitely not young. He and Taogu Liya were the youngest among them.
"It seems that the younger generation of each family will have a separate area."
Cao Xiaochun didn't care about this and sat down carelessly. Seeing Taogu Liya standing respectfully behind him, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
"Sit next to me!"
Cao Xiaochun's words made Taogu Liya happy. In such an occasion, as a maid, it was already a great honor for her to stand behind. Unexpectedly, Cao Xiaochun was so casual.
"Yes!"
Looking at the two people who occupied a table alone, Shangshan Gong and others didn't say anything. Shangshan Jin even took the initiative to give up his seat and sat next to Xuanmai Patriarch, leaving a relatively open seat.
This master is good in everything, but this unruly and lustful nature is a bit open at times.
