Liu Lang was surprised not because he had never seen such tricks before, but because he was surprised that Chai Yan could really do tricks.
Chai Yan picked up the handkerchief and waved it, showing a pair of empty fleshy palms, and said with a smile: "It has changed, Your Highness."
Liu Yu turned his head slightly and asked the person behind him: "Pei Yang, where do you think the wine cup went?"
Pei Yang had been standing by Liu Yu without saying anything. When the emperor asked about it, he walked over and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I think the wine cup should be hidden in his sleeve..."
"Oh?" Liu Yu made a questioning voice.
Pei Yang continued: "Your Majesty, this method is nothing more than a trivial deception. There are so many people who know it in the market. People who have practiced this technique for many years are only better than one with quick hands...
"
After hearing this, Liu Yu asked: "Prince, Crown Princess, what do you think?"
Liu Lang and Zhao Li successively said yes, but they both thought it was a trick to blind people and they were just quick.
"Well, since you all think so..." After Liu Yu said this, he suddenly turned around and told Pei Yang: "Pei Yang, go and search now. Ruona's wine cup is hidden on his body.
, he was immediately dragged out and beheaded!"
"ah?"
As soon as these words came out, shouts of surprise came from the main hall.
Not only the prince and the princess looked shocked, but the Jimoshu couple who were sitting in the first place were also surprised, especially Mrs. Jimo, who couldn't bear to see Chai Yan beheaded by the emperor.
Jimo Qiao was so frightened that her face turned pale. She didn't care about the etiquette at the moment. She turned sideways and took her sister's hand, saying anxiously: "Sister, what should I do?"
Yuan Yuan was also anxious. When she cast her anxious eyes on Chai Yan, Chai Yan turned around as if he sensed it immediately. His smiling face seemed to say, don't worry, it's no problem!
"It's okay, don't worry!" Yuanyuan patted Jimo Qiao's hand. This was to comfort his sister and himself at the same time.
When Liu Yu saw everyone's expressions like this, he pretended to be surprised and asked: "What? You are using the inferior deceitful tricks in the market to fool me. Shouldn't you punish him for deceiving the emperor?"
These words blocked everyone's mouths. Zhao Li wanted to say something, but Liu Lang held him down...
Liu Lang shook his head slightly at Zhao Li, said "no" with his mouth, and gave a meaningful look at the same time.
Zhao Li suddenly understood something. She immediately felt a chill in her back and began to worry about Chai Yan.
At this time, Pei Yang had already stepped to Chai Yan's side, and he ordered with a straight face: "Raise your hands!"
Chai Yan was very obedient, stretched out his arms with a smile on his face, and said: "My father-in-law, you must search carefully..."
Pei Yang replied with a tiger-like smile: "Don't worry, the Zajia family will definitely do it!"
Before he finished speaking, Pei Yang started groping and pressing on Chai Yan's arm...
Watching Pei Yang search bit by bit, Chai Yan thought to himself: "Damn eunuch! If you can find it, I will cut it immediately and accompany you to the palace as a eunuch!"
Shangguan Peining was immediately dissatisfied when she heard this, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Why are you so proud? If I hadn't helped you, you would have turned into a ghost!"
That wine cup has gone into Shangguan Peining's storage bracelet. If Shangguan Peining doesn't change the wine cup back, no one in this world will ever see it again!
Chai Yan didn't dare to offend Shangguan Peining at this time, so he quickly apologized and said with a smile: "That's right, that's right, thanks to the great god like you, otherwise I would really turn myself into a wandering ghost..."
Watching Pei Yang's step-by-step search, Jimo Qiao and Yuan Yuan were also worried. They were afraid that Pei Yang would suddenly touch something hard, which was the wine cup that had been taken away.
Pei Yang searched not only his two arms, but also his entire upper body, but he didn't even find the shadow of the wine cup. He frowned at that moment: "Where did you hide the wine cup?"
Chai Yan shook his head and said: "Don't let the secrets be revealed, father-in-law! This is a unique skill for ordinary people to make a living in the rivers and lakes. It cannot be said or revealed..."
Pei Yang had no choice but to turn around and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, but my servant is blind and cannot see the strangeness in this!"
Liu Yu didn't care, so he said to Chai Yan: "Isn't it time to change the wine cup back?"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chai Yan said respectfully.
After saying that, Chai Yan flattened the handkerchief on one palm again...
Pei Yang suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute, roll up your sleeves...roll them up higher!"
Chai Yan immediately smiled, and then he rolled up his sleeves very cooperatively, so that everyone could see his smooth arms clearly.
"Is this okay, father-in-law?" Chai Yan turned his arms and asked with a polite smile.
Pei Yang turned his head and glanced at the emperor before replying: "Let's get started."
Then, Chai Yan faced the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince and repeated the action of laying out the handkerchief just now.
"Dear viewers, please don't blink!"
When Chai Yan was talking, his other flat palm slowly pressed on the flat handkerchief. Judging from the fit of the two palms, it was obvious that nothing could be hidden between the two palms except the handkerchief.
.
"Three, two... one!"
Chai Yan used a countdown this time. When he counted to "one", the backs of Chai Yan's hands suddenly arched up at the same time.
"Wow!"
This scene caused another exclamation in the hall, which was much louder than the previous one.
Chai Yan released one of his palms, held the raised handkerchief in one hand and stretched it out in front of Pei Yang. He smiled and said, "Father-in-law, please open the handkerchief..."
Pei Yang looked at the arched shape of the handkerchief and knew that the wine cup was covering it. When he pulled the handkerchief away, what appeared was indeed the wine cup that had disappeared earlier.
"Pah bang pah..."
After the wine cup was transformed back into shape, a lone round of applause suddenly sounded in the hall.
Chai Yan looked back and saw that the person applauding was none other than Yuan Yuan, and he immediately smiled with relief.
Jimo Qiao was startled for a moment, and then joined the applause, making Yuyuan's applause seem less thin.
"You'er, Qiao'er, don't make any noise!"
Jimo Shu immediately stopped him, and Mrs. Jimo also shook her head at her daughters. Only then did Yuyuan and Jimo Qiao stop applauding.
Chai Yan handed the wine cup to Pei Yang, took the handkerchief from his hand, folded it carefully and put it into his sleeve.
Pei Yang looked at the wine cup with a look of confusion on his face. It was clearly right under his nose, but he couldn't see the flaws or tricks in it. It seemed that he had indeed underestimated this boy!
Liu Yu called Pei Yang back with a look, and then slowly clapped his hands and said: "Not bad, not bad! It's really different from those inferior deception methods in the market..."
