It took Lan Bingchen a long time to react, and he never expected that Nie Tian would reject him so simply.
Nie Tian's reaction made Lan Bingchen a little embarrassed. He glanced at Jin Mingxin, obviously asking for help.
Jin Mingxin deliberately avoided Lan Bingchen's eyes. At this time, he did not want to interfere with Nie Tian's decision, and he felt that he could not interfere.
Nie Tian is obviously not the kind of person who changes his decision easily.
"Your Highness, please get up. I will not accept you as a disciple." Nie Tian said calmly.
"Can't you even be a registered disciple?" Lan Bingchen looked up at Nie Tian with an extremely disappointed expression. This was the first time in his life that he had received such a big blow.
Nie Tian said: "If you really want to be my disciple, then prove your talent to me."
"How to prove it?" Lan Bing stood up in the morning, feeling energetic.
Everyone has the spirit of not admitting defeat. If you say I can’t do it, I will do it to show you.
Lan Bingchen was in this mood at this time.
Nie Tian couldn't help but smile, thought for a moment, and said, "Have you ever refined the Vein-Tongmai Pill?"
"Yes." Lan Bingchen nodded and said: "The Tongmai Pill, a second-level elixir, can help a warrior dredge the small meridians throughout the body and improve the warrior's physique."
"Very good." Nie Tian smiled slightly and said: "Now I will tell you another recipe for refining the Tongmai Pill. If you refine the Tongmai Pill within a month, I will accept you as a registered disciple.
."
"Are there any other prescriptions for Tongmai Pill?" Lan Bingchen was stunned for a moment.
"Of course." Nie Tian smiled faintly and said: "Zizhi, Tianjinglian, clover, golden bud, and second-level wood attribute magic core. This is the elixir recipe. You can determine the usage ratio and refining sequence of the various medicinal materials yourself.
is that OK?"
"No problem." Lan Bingchen nodded confidently.
What Nie Tian was talking about was a very simple elixir recipe, but it was a test of the alchemist's patience. The proportions of various medicinal materials and the order in which they were put in could only be verified after countless attempts.
"Okay, then I wish you good luck." Nie Tian smiled lightly. He only gave Lan Bingchen one month.
"Mr. Nie, I'm leaving." Lan Bingchen failed to become a disciple and didn't want to stay too long, so he bowed and said.
Nie Tian nodded slightly, and Jin Mingxin hurriedly said: "Best farewell to His Highness the Crown Prince."
"No need." Lan Bingchen looked a little disappointed, nodded, and turned to leave.
The guards waiting at the door followed Lan Bingchen and left.
It wasn't until Lan Bingchen's figure completely disappeared that Jin Mingxin let out a long breath.
The three of them returned to the lobby and sat down each.
"Dad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never had any contact with our family. Why did he suddenly appear this time? He is not here specifically to become a disciple, right?" Jin Dabao couldn't hold back his anger and asked.
Jin Mingxin took a sip of tea, turned to Nie Tian, and said, "Lan Bingchen's visit to Jin Mansion this time is indeed for Mr. Nie."
"He's really a dedicated disciple!" Jin Dabao screamed strangely and said, "I thought he came here just for the bet."
The bet between Jin Dabao and Qin Yuhu spread throughout Lanyun City in less than a day, and almost everyone knew about it.
Nie Tian shook his head and said, "Lan Bingchen's apprenticeship must have a deeper meaning."
Jin Mingxin asked: "What does Mr. Nie think His Royal Highness means?"
Nie Tian raised his head, thought for a moment, and said, "If my guess is correct, Lan Bingchen probably hopes that I can defeat Prince Bingye and win the Newcomer King."
"No way!" Jin Dabao shouted, "The prince and Prince Bingye are brothers. Doesn't he want his younger brother to win?"
Jin Mingxin took a sip of tea, smiled slightly, and said: "Dabao, you are still too naive to think about things. The prince and Prince Bingye are indeed brothers. They are both members of the royal family. Logically speaking, neither of them wants to see the royal family.
His face will be damaged. However, if there is a conflict of interest between two people and the interest is large enough, brotherhood will not seem so important."
"Both of them are members of the royal family, how can there be any conflict of interest?" Jin Dabao still didn't understand.
Nie Tian understood a lot better and said, "Mr. Jin means that Prince Bingye is a threat to the crown prince's throne, and the crown prince doesn't want Prince Bingye to become too famous. Is that right?"
Jin Ming nodded solemnly and sighed: "The family relationship between the emperors is the weakest. Especially between the brothers, each of them wants to compete for the throne. If Prince Bingye is a mediocre person, then he is the prince's good brother, but if he
If he is a genius and happens to be an ambitious genius, then he is the prince's biggest enemy."
"I understand, Prince Bingye also wants to compete for the throne. His Highness the Crown Prince is afraid that his reputation will be too great and threaten his position as the crown prince, so he wants to use the boss's help to suppress Prince Bingye's limelight." No matter how stupid Jin Dabao is, this time
It's time to understand.
Lan Bingye once said a joke about Jun Wu before, which already exposed his ambition.
Jin Mingxin smiled slightly, pleased that his son was not too stupid.
"Mr. Jin, do you think I will fight for this new king or not?" Nie Tian asked with a faint smile.
Jin Mingxin also smiled and said: "The bet between Dabao and Qin Yuhu seems to be just a joke between children on the surface. If you look deeper, it is a competition between the Jin family and the Qin family. If you continue to look deeper, it is actually a competition between the Jin family and the Qin family.
The competition for the throne between the crown prince and Prince Bingye.”
Having said this, Jin Mingxin sighed softly and continued: "Whether it is the Jin family or Mr. Nie, we have all been involved in this competition for the throne unintentionally. It is impossible to withdraw now. I only hope that we
You're not on the wrong team."
"Dad, which team are we on?" Jin Dabao was a little excited and asked excitedly.
Jin Mingxin smiled bitterly and said, "You have already made a bet with Qin Yuhu. Do we have any choice? We can only support the prince."
"What do you mean by dad, let the boss compete for the Rookie King?" Jin Dabao chuckled. He was really afraid that Jin Mingxin would stop Nie Tian from competing for the Rookie King.
"Fight!" Jin Mingxin suddenly stood up and said, "My Jin family's first-class residence cannot be given away to the Qin family."
Nie Tian nodded and smiled lightly.
Inadvertently getting involved in the prince's throne war was not what Nie Tian wanted.
But since he was already in it, he wasn't afraid.
Nie Tian's stone has the power to change the direction of the river.
Jin Mingxin suddenly glanced at Nie Tian and said, "Actually, His Royal Highness wants to become Mr. Nie's disciple, and there is another deeper meaning."
"What's the deep meaning?" Nie Tian asked.
Jin Ming nodded solemnly and said: "The reason why the prince wants to become Mr. Nie's disciple is to win over the Alchemist Guild."
"Winning over the Alchemist Guild?" Nie Tian was slightly startled.
"Yes." Jin Mingxin nodded and said: "Mr. Nie is already Master Zhang Yifeng's teacher. Zhang Yifeng has a very high status in the Alchemist Guild. The next president of the Alchemist Guild is 10% likely to be Master Zhang Yifeng. Prince
If His Highness becomes a disciple of Mr. Nie, he will not only gain support from Mr. Nie, but also become a fellow disciple with Master Zhang Yifeng, and will naturally gain support from the Alchemist Guild."
"I have to say that His Highness the Crown Prince made a very good move. Unfortunately, Mr. Nie is even more powerful and did not take him seriously at all."
Jin Mingxin couldn't help but smile bitterly when he said this. He had never thought that Nie Tian would refuse Lan Bingchen's apprenticeship.
