A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

The child grew quickly and was already fair and tender when he was just one month old. Everyone who saw him loved him. Wu Da did not hold any big full-month ceremony for the children. Instead, Wu Song took a special leave and bought gifts for the two children.

"Brother, these two children are really good at growing up. They picked out the best parts of brother and sister-in-law." Wu Song, a rough man, had never seen such young lives for the first time. He racked his brains to praise the two children: "But Bin'er and Sheng'er still look more like sister-in-law."

"Of course she looks more like me. If she was more like your brother, how would you get married in the future?" Pan Jinlian couldn't stop smiling. The woman who was once very romantic now also had the radiance of motherhood.

Wu Da is very satisfied with the status quo, while Ximen Qing also has a bumpy journey when he goes out.

The Puppet Pill will not take away his mind, nor will it change the way he does things. The difficulties he encounters are caused by his own lust and arrogance.

First, he met a woman on the road who was selling herself to bury her father, but was almost cheated of all her money by a honey trap. Later, he bought a woman in a brothel, but it turned out that the woman already had a lover. She stole the gold, silver and jewelry that Ximen Qing had brought with him and left. Ximen Qing was left with only the calligraphy and paintings given by Wu Da.

Finally, when Ximen Qing arrived at the prefect's door, he was just about to beg with a broken bowl. The guards at the door thought he was a beggar from somewhere and wanted to drive him away with a stick. Fortunately, he was lucky and met the prefect who was returning home.

"What are you making such a fuss about?" The prefect was also very angry. He had welcomed a distinguished guest, but he did not expect such a thing to happen.

"Master, please calm down. It was the servants in the mansion who were ignorant and disturbed you." The prefect also explained repeatedly, and quickly ordered the servants: "Give him five taels of silver and tell him to stop making trouble here."

How could Ximen Qing accept such an insult? He got angry on the spot and said, "I came here to give gifts to the adults, but I met a robber on the way. I am not a beggar who comes to beg for money."

The prefect secretly thought, "Oh no! Who is this person? He brings gifts to me in front of the emperor. My life is over."

The emperor was also very curious. The prefect was a rare honest official. How could someone come to give him a gift? He was curious and wanted to see who this talented person was. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw the calligraphy and painting rolling on the ground, and he was immediately shocked.

The emperor picked up the calligraphy and painting regardless of the dirt on the ground and admired them carefully. The clever prefect felt that his good luck seemed to have come. As everyone knew, the emperor of the time was a devout lover of calligraphy and painting. He didn't know where this master came from.

At the same time, Wu Da only felt a strong dragon energy coming. After a brief feeling, he knew what had happened to Ximen Qing. Although he could not calculate the specific consequences, he could foresee that the future would be very bright.

After admiring the calligraphy and painting in his hand, the emperor realized who the painting and calligraphy belonged to. He looked at Ximen Qing and asked who painted the painting and calligraphy.

"These are the calligraphy and paintings I brought from Yanggu County. That person is a good friend of mine, but he has been disabled since childhood, so he has never been famous," Ximen Qing explained.

When the emperor heard this, he felt that this person must be a hermit who was not interested in fame and fortune, and only such a person could create such calligraphy and paintings.

With Ximen Qing's unremitting praise and flattery, the emperor became more and more curious about Wu Da and planned to summon him.

Ximen Qing then realized that the person in front of him was the emperor, and he immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, I am really blind and didn't recognize the emperor, I deserve to die."

"Forget it, you have never seen me, so what crime have you committed?" The emperor did not mind this little thing.

"Your Majesty is so magnanimous, and I am so blessed," Ximen Qing praised repeatedly. This man took flattery to the extreme.

Thanks to Ximen Qing's efforts, the emperor not only rewarded Ximen Qing with money and property, but also promised to give Wu Da a high position and generous salary. Ximen Qing was secretly happy and the matter was settled.

After returning to Yanggu County, Ximen Qing told Wu Da the good news, but Wu Da was well aware of a truth - what you can't get is the best. This truth applies not only to men and women, but also to any situation.

When the emperor learned that Wu Da was unwilling to see him, his first reaction was of course anger. However, after reading Wu Da's petition, the emperor fell silent again.

In his petition, Wu Da deeply expressed his inferiority complex, saying frankly that his disability would have an impact on the emperor, and that if the emperor summoned or even liked someone like him, it would undermine the emperor's majesty.

After hearing these words, the emperor felt deeply empathetic. He was sentimental to begin with, and he felt that Wu Da was a really good person. He wanted to meet Wu Da even more.

Wu Da declined many times, but at the same time she used very clever methods to perfectly control the emperor. Finally, after the two children were one year old, Wu Da agreed to meet the emperor.

He brought his whole family from Yanggu County and rushed all the way to Bianliang. When the emperor learned that Wu Da was coming, he was full of expectations.

At the beginning, Wu Da told the emperor that she was disabled and not suitable to meet the emperor, so the emperor always thought that Wu Da was very ugly, and he prepared himself mentally for a long time before meeting Wu Da.

But when he met Wu Da, he found that Wu Da was not tall, but had a very good appearance, and he and Wu Da also had a certain friendship through correspondence.

"Your humble servant pays his respects to the emperor." Wu Da paid his respects to the emperor with full etiquette and presented his masterpiece.

The emperor first helped Wu Da up, then ordered someone to take the painting and slowly unfold it. Then he was overjoyed. Wu Da knew at a glance that his gift was the right one, and everything would be easier in the future.

The emperor himself was very fond of flower and bird paintings, and the painting Wu Da gave him was a picture of a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix. Both the sparrow in the corner and the phoenix in the main picture were lifelike.

"Okay, okay, my dear minister, you are really my most loyal subject, hahahaha." The emperor was extremely excited and only regretted why he had only met Wu Da now.

Under Wu Da's conquest, the emperor bestowed Wu Da with a title and a house, and even wanted to marry his princess to Wu Da, but Wu Da refused repeatedly.

"Your Majesty's love is so great that I would never refuse it, even if I die. But I already have a wife at home. If I divorce her and marry again, I'm afraid the whole world will laugh at me. A princess is not allowed to be someone's concubine. Besides, I'm afraid that the beauty in front of me will affect my creation." After Wu Da gave his reason, the emperor didn't mention it again.

But he still felt that giving Wu Da these things was not enough. Thinking of what Ximen Qing said, that Wu Song still had no marriage, he wanted to grant Wu Song a marriage.

Now it was difficult for Wu Da to refuse, and for Wu Song, this was also a good way out. Although being a royal consort did not give him any real power, there were always exceptions.

After getting Wu Da, the emperor no longer even liked beautiful women. He often copied Wu Da's Painting of Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, but always felt that it was not quite up to standard. Wu Da took advantage of the official position given to him by the emperor and gradually made his way into the power center of Bianliang.
