Although Prince Qing Long Shixing was indulging in his emotions, this person can be regarded as versatile, including piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, astrology, and numbers. He often gathered a group of literati and scholars in the Prince's Mansion on weekdays.

Qin Lang was very surprised at how Ji Hongcai was invited. It seemed that apart from Ji Hongcai, there were few officials in the court, and even more so, he was invited in. It was estimated that everything was arranged in advance, and the more he looked at it, the less it looked like a coincidence.

However, when I arrived at the banquet hall, I actually met Wang Houting.

Of course, Wang Houting was not qualified to be invited. He came with his master, Mr. Jingshui, Guo Linfeng. Guo Linfeng was a distinguished guest of the Prince's Mansion. He did not come here empty-handed today. He specially brought his proud paintings to Prince Qing.

Qin Lang went over and greeted Wang Houting. Wang Houting was also very surprised to see Qin Lang here. He introduced Qin Lang to his master.

Mr. Jingshui Guo Linfeng is in his fifties and has a fairy-like appearance, but his expression is quite arrogant. It is said that he is one of the few masters of painting cultivation in Da Yong. It is said that since Li Niuma reached the Zhaixing Realm, no one can reach the realm of the sixth-grade master.

He just nodded slightly to Qin Lang, saying hello. Because of the skeleton mural of the Jingshui Painting Academy, Qin Lang paid more attention to Guo Linfeng, but he saw that this person was arrogant and had no interest in talking to him. He turned around and returned to Ji Hongcai.

The position assigned to Ji Hongcai in the corner is really not in line with the identity of this third-rank official. Although Ji Hongcai is not very good-looking, after all, the level is there. Qin Lang really didn't expect that he was so unpresented in the Prince's Mansion. From this point of view, today is not like Ji Hongcai who can arrange it.

However, the theme of today's banquet is to discuss painting skills, and it is not based on official positions. The one who is respected as a guest of honor is a master-level figure like Guo Linfeng.

Although Ji Hongcai is from the third rank official title, he is used to being low-key and has no presence in the court. He is just an amateur in calligraphy and painting. Qin Lang really doesn't understand why Lao Ji came to join in the fun, maybe he is true love for painting.

At this time, an old man with white hair and hair came in from outside. Most of the people at the scene stood up to greet him. This person was Qin Daozi, a great scholar from Babu Academy. Like Guo Linfeng, he was both in the painting master realm. Both of them were in the fifth grade and the third grade. They were also the most promising painting master realm in Dayong who currently has the greatest hope to break through the grandma realm and enter the sixth grade master realm.

Ji Hongcai was obviously a little excited, his eyes were shining brightly, and he whispered to Qin Lang: "These two are the strongest masters of painting cultivation in our Da Yong. Prince Qing is really good at seeing the cards. He can actually invite them at the same time."

Qin Lang disagreed and said, "It's just a fifth grade, what's so strange?"

Ji Hongcai said: "You boy are not afraid of talking and shining your tongue. Since Li Niu and Ma shattered the void, no one can cultivate to the sixth level. These two are the most promising."

Qin Daozi's arrival caused a sensation at the scene. There were many fans present. He escorted him to the guest seat like the stars, and of course there were no one who did not get up. Needless to say, Ji Hongcai and Qin Lang who were sitting in the corner, Mr. Jingshui Guo Linfeng did not get up either. His eyes met Qin Daozi across the air. Both of them seemed quite disdainful. As expected, they were enemies.

Prince Qing County, Long Shixing, was late. He was 37 years old this year. Because he was greedy for pleasure and indulged in music and sex, he had a fat figure. Although his appearance was correct, his face was a little swollen and his eyes were very heavy, so he seemed older than his actual age.

This time everyone stood up to greet them.

Long Shixing made a few polite words and came to the main table to sit down. Today, he invited these painters to come here mainly to learn about painting skills. After three rounds of wine, Long Shixing picked up the wine glass and said, "I want everyone to come here in fact to ask for a portrait."

As soon as this said, the scene was silent. Long Shixing invited him to dinner and indeed he had something to ask for, but it was not easy to ask someone to paint him. There were many masters who specialized in figure painting on the scene, including Qin Daozi. Although Guo Linfeng is also a master of the fifth grade and third grade, Guo Linfeng was mainly engaged in landscapes. However, this time the death of the late emperor, his portrait was specially invited by Guo Linfeng.

The portrait of the emperor is a high level of affirmation for the painter. Qin Daozi thought that this task would fall on him, but he did not expect that he would invite Guo Linfeng into the palace from Chiyang's Jingshui Painting Academy, which made Qin Daozi extremely unhappy.

Long Shixing said: "I have prepared pens, ink, paper and inkstones. How do you guys write on the spot?"

Everyone recommended Guo Linfeng and Qin Daozi one after another. There were two master-level figures here, so how dare the others show their ugly appearance?

Qin Daozi and Guo Linfeng looked at each other, and both saw each other's hidden challenges. They were neither convinced nor looked down on each other. No matter which industry, there were rules that were taboo to each other.

Long Shixing made four paintings appear, and he was prepared for it. Two of these paintings must belong to Guo Linfeng and Qin Daozi. As for the other two, no one dared to show off his skills.

The two masters came to the painting table naturally under the recommendation of everyone, and the other two painting tables were still empty.

When Prince Qing County Long Shixing saw that he did not recognize him, he dared to step forward. In fact, this was something he expected. His eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one. Everyone at the scene lowered their heads, fearing that Prince Qing would hit him.

Prince Qing suddenly said, "Qin Lang, come on!"

Qin Lang was stunned. He looked at Ji Hongcai. Ji Hongcai looked innocent and curled his lips, saying that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Qin Langxin said it would be strange if he had nothing to do with Ji Hongcai. Today was Ji Hongcai invited him over. Although he encountered some trouble at the door, who could guarantee that it was not Ji Hongcai who was acting on purpose, and they were sitting in the corner. How could Prince Qing notice him? Besides, how did he know his name? The two of them had never seen each other before.

Ji Hongcai said: "Go, the prince calls you, this is a great honor."

Qin Lang had no choice but to get up and walk over. He didn't want this honor.

Today, those who come to the Prince's Mansion are famous artists in the calligraphy and painting circles. These people are basically idle people and rarely care about the government affairs. Except for Wang Houting, basically no one knows Qin Lang, and they stare at Qin Lang one by one. They wonder where this kid came from. He is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. Why did Prince Qing call his name?

Qin Lang first came to Prince Qing and saluted respectfully, "Qin Lang of Tiance Prefecture meets His Highness the Prince."

Prince Qing looked at him and said, "You are Qin Lang! I have heard of your name for a long time."

Qin Lang is really amused and crying. You just called my name but don’t even know me. Is this Prince Qing really confused or fake?

Prince Qing said: "Go, competing with two seniors in the same field will be a rare opportunity for you to learn."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "Thank you for giving me this opportunity." He turned around and walked towards the painting table. When he passed by Guo Linfeng and Qin Daozi, he saluted them respectively. Guo Linfeng still looked arrogant, while Qin Daozi was kind and smiled at Qin Lang. Compared with the two, Qin Lang felt that the latter had a more generous style.

Prince Qing asked someone to lit an incense stick on the spot. He asked to paint him within one incense stick. This not only tests the painter's painting skills but also tests the painter's speed.

Prince Qing invited everyone to continue drinking. In fact, today's live painting was more like a knockout match. Everyone thought that Prince Qing chose his favorite painter through this method. Qin Lang did not think so. I wonder what purpose Prince Qing had? Why should he choose his own name?

Qin Daozi and Guo Linfeng stood in front of the painting table and looked at each other again. The intertwined eyes burst out with invisible sparks. Painting is precise and concise. They have known Prince Qing for many years. Even if they close their eyes, they know what Prince Qing looks like.

Both of them are masters of the fifth grade and third grade, and are both noble people. They are actually disgusted with Prince Qing in such a live painting competition, but they have been pushed into this situation and have to deal with it reluctantly. Although they are reluctant, no one wants to lose to the other party.

In one stick of incense, two masters can also complete a decent portrait painting. Of course, if you want to become a masterpiece, you still need plenty of time to craft it. Both of you close your eyes at the same time. This is the master's demeanor, calm and relaxed, first make up the picture in your mind, and then start writing.

Everyone was amazed at the style of the two masters. Looking at Qin Lang again, the boy had already started drawing with a pen, and everyone showed gloating smiles. Today, this boy was going to be ugly. I don’t know why he offended Prince Qing. Prince Qing actually asked him to go up as a foil, and he wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate him.

Among them, Wang Houting is a truly sympathetic person. As Qin Lang’s friend, he doesn’t want to see Qin Lang being ridiculed, but he knows in his heart that this matter is inevitable. After today’s incident, Qin Lang will definitely become a laughing stock in the painting world.

At this time, the incense had already burned out one-third, and everyone's attention soon returned to the two masters. Qin Daozi and Guo Linfeng opened their eyes at the same time, picked up the sheep hair, sinking their energy into the dantian, and preparing to splash ink in one go, but when they heard a voice coming from behind, they said, "I've painted it!"

The person who spoke was Qin Lang, and everyone was shocked when they said this.

Before Qin Daozi and Guo Linfeng could start writing, no one would have thought that this kid would come like this and steal the limelight? After all, young people are too competitive, and this is not a good thing.

The housekeeper of the royal palace went down to get the painting, looked at Qin Lang's painting, his expression seemed a little strange, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and held back his smile and said, "Are you sure?"

Qin Lang nodded.

The butler of the royal family shook his head and then took Qin Lang's painting to the prince. Everyone was very surprised. I have to say that this kid has successfully captured the limelight, and at least everyone's curiosity was snatched up by him.
