There are more and more people in Linjiang Palace, especially as the banquet time approaches, the big shots also begin to appear.
When Zheng Qingfang arrived, everyone in the cabin rushed up to say hello no matter what they were doing.
This is the deterrent power of the elders of the Tang and Three Dynasties.
Even though Zheng Qingfang has retired and returned to his hometown, no one dares to underestimate him.
You must know that Zheng Qingfang did not resign from office and return home, but because his health was not good. Otherwise, he would have worked as prime minister until he died.
If you want to say that the minister whom Your Majesty trusts the most today, then it must be Zheng Qingfang.
“Let’s talk about it another day!”
Zheng Qingfang encouraged a few juniors, greeted a few old friends, and then walked towards Sun Mo: "Why are you hiding in a place like this?"
Sun Mo shrugged his shoulders.
"Sun Mo, listen to my uncle's advice. If you are just a simple famous teacher, then you don't need to care about these interactions. But if you want to expand your influence and make a difference in the world of famous teachers, then communication is a must. A
Whether a person is successful or not also depends on his ability to manage people."
Zheng Qingfang spoke sincerely and sincerely.
"Thank you, Uncle Zheng, for your advice!"
Sun Mo knew that Mr. Zheng really wanted to support him.
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet a few people!"
Zheng Qingfang took Sun Mo's hand.
Seeing how much Mr. Zheng valued a young man, many distinguished guests were curious and asked for Sun Mo's name.
"That's just a vote for someone like a dog in front of the door!"
"Oh, so this is An Anhui's fiancé?"
"Tsk, he looks quite handsome!"
This is the deer tail banquet, which is held to congratulate the newly promoted one-star masters, not to mention that this year there is a master who has broken a Grand Slam record, so the guests are naturally curious.
Everyone has known the name Sun Mo for a long time. After all, the title of An Xinhui's fiancé was just to attract enough attention.
Sun Mo was very calm and followed Zheng Qingfang to visit several important figures.
In previous years, those newly promoted one-star famous teachers would have been very jealous. After all, the opportunity to meet these powerful people in Jinling was so rare, but this year, no one cared.
People like Gu Xiuxun, Fang Wuji, and Liu Mubai didn't care at all.
This is the confidence that talent brings.
"This is Qi Muenqi's consort, your highness's uncle!"
Introduction by Zheng Qingfang.
Sun Mo, who was originally careless, immediately corrected his attitude. These were the parents of his own students, so he should treat them with caution.
"Master Sun, I have long admired you!"
Qi Muen laughed, feeling friendly.
"Master Qi!"
Sun Mo cupped his fists.
Li Ziqi's aunt is the eldest princess, deeply trusted by His Majesty the Emperor.
Generally speaking, the emperor would be taboo about these relatives, and basically would not give them any real power. They would raise them like pigs and give them enough money, but they would not have to think about their rights at all.
But this eldest princess is an exception. It is said that she is in charge of the secret espionage system in the lobby. To put it simply, she is engaged in intelligence.
Sun Mo didn't know how good Qi Muen was, but he must be very talented to make such a powerful woman fall in love with him.
In terms of appearance alone, Qi Muen, who is already in his forties, is elegant and handsome, and full of aristocratic temperament when talking and laughing, which makes people very fond of him.
This kind of rich and handsome uncle would definitely be the king of picking up girls in modern times.
“This parent has extremely high emotional intelligence!”
Sun Mo analyzed that he had seen this type of person, and it was a posture that was cultivated after reading a lot of books, meeting a lot of people, and going through a lot of things.
"Master Sun, I actually want to cause trouble for you, but I can't bear to see my Ziqi cry, so I'll let you go for the time being."
Qi Muen, who was smiling at first, suddenly changed his expression.
"Xiao Qi!"
Zheng Qingfang changed his mind.
"Uncle Zheng, this is my family matter!"
Qi Muen agreed.
"This is my family business too!"
Zheng Qingfang chuckled.
"Um?"
Qi Muen was stunned for a moment, then looked at Sun Mo: "Uncle Zheng has a very high vision. To be appreciated by Uncle Zheng, you must be very good as well, but it's not enough!"
Qi Muen did not expect that Zheng Qingfang admired Sun Mo so much and treated him as a junior: "I would not be satisfied with the chief title of a one-star famous teacher, let alone my wife."
Sun Mo explained: "I have never been complacent!"
At this moment, Sun Mo thought again of those tricky parents he faced. To be honest, it was not easy to meet good teachers who were serious and responsible, and good parents who were reasonable.
"There is not much time left for you. I hope you can prove yourself in the two-star famous teacher assessment in more than two months."
Qi Muen made a request.
"Xiao Qi, aren't you trying to make things difficult for others?"
Zheng Qingfang frowned: "Have you ever seen anyone who was promoted to two stars in a row?"
"A genius is someone who can achieve extraordinary things. Uncle Zheng, Ziqi's personal teacher, must be a genius, right?"
Qi Muen asked back.
Zheng Qingfang didn't know what to say. To be honest, with Li Ziqi's status as the princess of the Tang Dynasty, even if she couldn't become a disciple of Yasheng, it wouldn't be a problem to become a famous teacher of seven or eight stars.
When he first heard that Li Ziqi had accepted Sun Mo as his teacher, he was shocked and even wanted to stand up and stop him. Even now, he feels that it is inappropriate.
Sun Mo is excellent, but can he become a Seven-Star Master? Even if he can, how long will it take? And in the process of becoming a Seven-Star Master, His Highness's time will be delayed!
After all, the best learning age for everyone is only a dozen years.
"Furthermore, I heard that Liu Mubai is going to achieve three stars a year. I only ask Master Sun for two stars a year. Isn't that too much?"
Qi Muen asked.
“Not too much!”
Sun Mo smiled: "If I can't achieve three stars in one year, I will persuade Ziqi to leave me!"
"Sun Mo!"
Zheng Qingfang was startled.
"Three stars a year? Are you sure you're right?"
Qi Muen's eyes widened and he began to look at Sun Mo seriously.
"I am sure!"
Sun Mo looked at Qi Muen with a solemn look: "This time, I am not fighting for me, but to prove that Zi Qi's vision is correct!"
Hearing this, Zheng Qingfang couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing. It was indeed the Sun Mo he knew, so domineering.
Ding!
Favorability from Zheng Qingfang +100, respect (2440/10000).
"Okay, if you do it, I will serve you tea and toast to apologize to you!"
Qi Muen raised his right hand, intending to high-five Sun Mo and swear an oath of alliance.
Sun Mo was not afraid at all.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The crisp applause spread throughout half of Linjiang Hall.
The guests around could not help but whisper, curious about what they were talking about.
"The teacher's expression is very solemn, will something happen?"
Lu Zhiruo was worried.
Li Ziqi's heart was full of worries. The scene she was most afraid of had come. No matter what, if her aunt and uncle bullied the teacher, she would kill them!
Anyway, I will never let go of such a good teacher in my life.
Ding!
"The mission is released. Please pass the two-star master teacher assessment in two months and prove your excellence to Qi Mu'en. We hereby reward you with a silver treasure chest!"
"The mission is released, please work hard to complete the feat of rising to three stars in a row in a year, which will shock Qi Muen's attention. Then there will be a mysterious big reward."
The sound of the system rang in my ears.
"What are you talking about? Let me hear it?"
A man in his fifties walked over quickly. He was extremely tall, with broad shoulders and wide waist. When he spoke, he was like an iron wall coming at him, bringing with him great pressure.
"This is Prince Li!"
Introduction by Zheng Qingfang.
"Prince Li!"
Sun Mo said hello, but did not salute.
Seeing this scene, Li Zixing's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he laughed out loud, stretched out his big hand, and patted Sun Mo's shoulder hard.
"Young people are awesome. This year, Zhongzhou University has gained a lot of limelight because of you. This is also the glory of our Jinling!"
Li Zixing praised.
Sun Mo didn't speak, just smiled, but gave Li Zixing a comment in his heart: "Smiling Tiger!"
At this moment, An Xinhui came over.
"Prime Minister Zheng, Prince Li, Prince Consort Qi!"
An Xinhui said hello one by one. She was worried that Sun Mo would suffer a loss.
"Prime Minister Zheng, Master Miao recently created a Tripitaka painting because he was inspired by watching "Journey to the West"."
Li Zixing showed off: "I already bought it for one million taels!"
Li Zixing's voice was loud and his status was noble, so he naturally attracted attention, so as soon as he said these words, many people began to exclaim.
Master Miao, born Miao Mu, is a one-star famous teacher, but his painting skills are extremely good. He is the best in Jinling and is famous throughout Jiangnan.
His calligraphy works often sell out.
"Master Miao, you are wrong. I have told you before that when you have a famous painting, you have to show it to me first!"
Prime Minister Zheng was depressed.
"Mr. Zheng, to be honest, I was painting in Yaju at that time. Prince Li happened to be there and wanted to buy it right away. I had no choice but to do it!"
A slightly thin, middle-aged man with a somewhat bookish air spread his hands.
"When you see this kind of painting, you cannot miss it, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Li Zixing smiled proudly.
"Have you brought the Tripitaka map? Would you like for everyone to have a look at it?"
Qi Muen is also a person who loves painting.
"Come here, unfold the scroll!"
Li Zixing spoke.
The Miao master was drinking tea very calmly.
Soon, the scroll was held by two maids and unfolded.
This is a long scroll painting, about three meters long, depicting Tripitaka's journey to the west. Some places, about two-thirds of it, are colored.
"It's half a famous painting, what a pity!"
Many guests began to lament that if it were a famous painting, it would be worth much more.
Of course, the quality of the current painting is also extremely high.
"If I hadn't been so excited at the time and shouted, which disturbed Master Miao, otherwise this would have been a famous painting."
Li Zixing sighed.
"Your Majesty, it's because I'm not good at it!"
Miao Mu quickly humbled himself.
Everyone began to comment on this famous painting. Of course, the tone has been set, which is to praise it. After all, it was painted by the first painter in Jinling and bought by Prince Li. Who dares to say anything wrong?
Zheng Qingfang turned his head, looked at Sun Mo, and blinked narrowly. With his many years of experience in officialdom, he could tell that Li Zixing was about to make things difficult for him.
Sun Mo shook his head helplessly.
"Huh? What does Master Sun mean when he shakes his head? Is there anything deficient in this famous painting?"
Qi Muen asked.
He didn't mean to make things difficult for Sun Mo, but just out of curiosity.
"This assist is good!"
Li Zi was happy. He had arranged for someone to find an opportunity to make things difficult for Sun Mo. Unexpectedly, Qi Muen opened his mouth. This saved him a lot of energy. Then, it all depended on how Sun Mo would answer.
