"...Do you think you are still embarrassed to go in?"
Li Ke's voice suddenly rose eight degrees, and Li Ke felt that he was so embarrassed now that he thought about the embarrassing scene just now.
Cheng Chubi looked at Li Ke unhappily, "Why, are you looking down on our Cheng family members who like to practice what we do?"
"Why, how about we make a bet. If I dare to enter the Taile Department, what benefits will you give me?"
Li De and Li Min, two personal bodyguards of His Highness King Wu, raised their thumbs towards Cheng Fa and Cheng Da with complex expressions at this moment.
Cheng Fa and Cheng Da rolled their eyes, and finally managed to control their emotions. They knew exactly who the thumb was pointing towards, and they all understood.
I have to admit that the third young master's behavior is becoming more and more similar to that of the master.
No wonder the master likes to point at the most handsome third son of Lao Cheng’s family all day long, always saying that the third son looks like him.
It seems that his eyebrows should be those of his wife, but his temperament and behavior, haha...
At this moment, in the Taile Department, Master Luo finally opened his legs with difficulty and slowly sat back in front of the desk.
At this moment, he seemed to have aged ten years, his expression was so desolate, and his eyes were so sad.
Gu Taile stood aside and couldn't bear it. He couldn't help but stamp his feet and look up to the sky and sigh.
God, how can you do this and let those Cheng family members continue to be rough warriors? How good are you?
Why should a shameless and talented person appear in Lao Cheng's family? The whole Chang'an literary and art circle was disturbed.
Before, this guy only made trouble in the calligraphy and painting art world, and made the calligraphy and painting art world in Chang'an crazy.
It is said that the two masters Yan are not happy to hear the word "Cheng family". They will tremble all over and turn blue when they hear it.
At that time, the music circle in Chang'an could still be enjoyed secretly, but now, that boy has actually started to get involved in this circle as well.
Presumably Taile Department has become the first victim, but it will definitely not be the last victim.

Thinking about this, Gu Taile really felt that he was not worthy in this world. Should he resign and go into seclusion and concentrate on music...
But when he turned around, he saw the master of stringed instruments in front of him who had suffered severe physical and mental injuries, and thought of what had happened to him.
Gu Taile felt that his situation was not that bad. In fact, he was a little happy. Fortunately, I was good at music rather than instrument making.
Otherwise, the one who is being robbed and robbed at this moment, the one who is so sad that he cannot be himself at this moment, should be himself.
"Master Luo, Master Luo, please calm down. You know, the Cheng family, alas..."
Gu Taile looked at Master Luo, whose face turned dark and red, with a worried expression. He had countless complaints in his heart, but he had nowhere to complain.
Master Luo shook his head for a long time, what can he do? What can he do if he gets angry again? Is it possible that he can still call Duke Lu's mansion to get the treasure back?
Looking at his old arms and legs, Master Luo thought that he might not be able to pinch any of the rough old men from the Cheng family who could lift a cauldron.
Besides, that guy snatched the treasure away under the pretense that he was presenting the pipa to Her Highness the Princess. What could I do?
Master Luo, who never thought that one day he would be involved with the notorious old Cheng family, wiped his face fiercely.
"Gu Taile, after finishing these two instruments for His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor, I want to rest for a while."
"It's natural. Master Luo, just take a good rest. I know it well and will not disturb you again, Master Luo, unless necessary."
"Well, even if that kid comes back later. Humph! I would rather die than make another musical instrument for him."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Luo, please have a good rest. Don't get hurt because of your anger. The Tang Dynasty's plucking instruments still need famous craftsmen like you."
After Gu Taile left, Master Luo sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.
That's all, what happened today is that I went out for a spring outing outside Chang'an City and encountered bandits who were robbing the road. At least I was still alive.
After some self-comfort and hypnosis, he finally adjusted his mind. Then Master Luo stood up, came behind him, and opened the curtain.
I began to appreciate the fine works I had produced over the years, and as I looked at them, I became increasingly uneasy.
"Come here, hurry up, pack up all these musical instruments for me, lock them in the boxes, and then transport them back to my house."
The handymen in the Taile Department looked at Master Luo in bewilderment, who was very confident in his own skills, very narcissistic about his works, and would play with them and appreciate them every now and then.
"You are all doing it in a daze. Follow my instructions and do it quickly. If there is anyone else, hurry to the door of the department and keep an eye on it."
"If it's Cheng Sanlang who just left, well...and if His Highness King Wu comes here again, please remember to rush over and report to me as soon as possible."
From today on, even if I die, I will not leave a piece of work here, giving those bastards a chance to rob it.

Empress Changsun yawned lazily, put down the book in her hand, and glanced around, she saw her husband stroking his long beard, looking at Cheng Sanlang's musical instrument with an expression full of inquiry.
Well, that thing is so heavy that most people can't use it as a two-handed weapon, let alone use it as a musical instrument.
Empress Changsun walked up to her husband and said softly, somewhat dumbfounded.
"Husband, why are you still thinking about this pipa?"
"Yes, I always feel that this pipa is strange. After all, even if it is made of solid wood, it may not be so heavy.
But after all, it is Cheng Sanlang’s treasure, and I can’t just dismantle it and study it.”
"What my husband said is absolutely true. Having said that, the timbre of this Cheng's pipa is indeed very different and unique from the string-plucked instruments of the Tang Dynasty."
While the couple was discussing, Princess Li Mingda also came to the Manlu Hall to look for her parents.
The family of three stayed neatly together again, talking and laughing loudly in a relaxed manner, when an urgent report was delivered to the palace.
When they were placed in front of Li Shimin's case, Empress Changsun and Li Mingda calmed down in understanding.
Li Shimin took the urgent note, opened it and glanced at it briefly, his face changed involuntarily, and he let out a long sigh after a long time.
"Zhao Kun, quickly go to the three provinces and the six ministers to enter the palace to discuss matters."
After hearing this, Empress Changsun couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Husband, what's going on?"
"This year, it has been rainy in Guanzhong, and flooding has occurred in many places. But I just received the news that the Wei River in Huazhou has burst its banks. Fortunately, Ding Cha, the river patrol officer, thought it was timely."
"The people have saved their lives, but a lot of farmland in Huazhou has been washed away. Next, I'm afraid there will be another big problem with Huazhou's harvest this year."
