Li Heng wrote the answer according to Li Yu's instructions, and then handed it to the maid who was waiting for the pen and ink on the side, and asked her to take it out.

Mr. Qiu asked people to accept the answers written by the three of them, and first presented the piece of paper written by Mu Zhizhen in front of everyone, and some people couldn't help but shout "Good words!"

Mr. Qiu glanced at Mu Zhizhen, and said with a smile: "The words are good! Seeing words is like seeing people, but it is true." ”

Mu Zhizhen smiled humbly.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Mu Gongzi guessed that the one on the left is the real handiwork of Mr. Qiu?"

Mr. Qiu looked at Mu Zhizhen with a smile, as if he was waiting for him to say the reason.

Mu Zhizhen stepped forward and pointed to one of the horses on the "Horse Picture" on the left and said, "Everyone, please see, the eyes of this horse are closed, and the ...... on this painting" Mu Zhizhen said and pointed to the horse in the same position on the painting on the right, "The eyes of this horse are open." ”

Everyone looked at it and nodded, and some of them had noticed this detail before, when there was even a humane person: "Many people will deliberately sell one or two flaws when imitating the works of their predecessors to show the difference from the original works, which is also a kind of respect for the original author, and presumably the people who copy Mr. Qiu's paintings also have this idea." ”

Many scholars nodded.

Mu Zhizhen shook his head and said with a smile: "You haven't paid attention, is this horse eating grass? The horse's eyes should be closed when eating grass, so as to prevent the grass and trees from hurting their eyes." So it's not a flaw, it's a fallacy. ”

All of you here are scholars. Even if someone has a few horses at home, they have never grazed, so although he felt some truth when he heard Mu Zhizhen say this, he was not sure whether what he said was correct, so someone asked someone to call an entourage who could drive the carriage, and the answer was really the same as Mu Zhizhen.

Mr. Qiu did not express his position, but took out the answers written by Li Heng and Xue Xingyi. Surprisingly, Li Heng and Xue Xingyi chose the horse on the right.

Li Heng was just that, everyone thought that he was here to make up the numbers, but it was a pity to look at Xue Xingyi's gaze.

Over there, Princess Chunyang snorted coldly and said, "Is this picking an apprentice or deliberately embarrassing people?"

Chunyang's voice was not small, and he moved the screen away again. All she said was heard by the people in the flower hall. I couldn't help but look at Mr. Qiu with some embarrassment.

The fifth prince frowned, and said softly, "Chunyang!" and then glanced at Aunt Lan beside Chunyang.

Aunt Lan's heart sank, and she whispered to Princess Chunyang in a slightly tougher tone: "Princess, if you don't like it here. Then the slave and maid ordered him to go back to the palace. ”

Chunyang just wanted to get angry when he heard this. A pair of sights of the five princes. Thinking of leaving the palace, Concubine De paused when she ordered her words, suppressed some of her anger and scolded Aunt Lan: "Okay, don't put your score in front of the palace!

Aunt Lan pursed her lips. took a step back, but her eyes did not leave Chunyang for a moment, for fear that she would say something inappropriate in public to make herself uncomfortable.

The fifth prince said apologetically to Mr. Qiu: "Chunyang has been spoiled by my father, and I ask Mr. to read that she is not more important, and don't worry about her." ”

Mr. Qiu smiled indifferently, as if he didn't take it to heart, and then turned to Li Heng and said, "King Jun, tell me why you chose the painting on the right?"

Li Heng didn't expect Old Man Qiu to call his name first, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he lost people and said, "Master is handy." ”

Mr. Qiu looked at Li Heng and smiled slightly: "Oh?"

Li Heng didn't say that his brother asked him to choose, he felt very righteous that he would be embarrassed, so he pouted and said casually: "There are so many nerds present except for my cousin, who didn't find out that the horse was grazing with his eyes closed, Old man Qiu, you were just a little nerd when you painted this picture, maybe you also made a mistake! Why is it that you are right, and someone else is wrong? Just because you are more famous than others?" This is the same reason as when the master walked sideways in the capital with his own identity, and others did not dare to say that it was the master's fault when the master was wrong. ”

He Linwan couldn't help but glance at Li Heng.

Mr. Qiu stroked his short beard and laughed, everyone didn't know what Mr. Qiu was laughing at, Li Heng's words were really a bit presumptuous, and ordinary people should be angry when they heard it.

Someone couldn't help but be angry and said, "How could Mr. Qiu be so knowledgeable and make such a mistake? Not to mention how could Mr. Qiu be as ...... as you?"

I didn't want Mr. Qiu to say, "What he said is right. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they all looked at Mr. Qiu.

Mr. Qiu looked at the two paintings and smiled: "Anyone can make mistakes, and the old man is no exception. The old man painted this painting when he was still the king of the county, but he didn't notice the subtleties of the painting he painted, and gave it to a friend of the old man's as a masterpiece. Later, when I saw this imitation in a friend's house, I remembered the mistake I made back then, it is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles, the old man's observation power was not as good as a ten-year-old child, and it was because of these two paintings that the old man decided to resign from the high-ranking officials and go out to travel. ”

Speaking of this, Mr. Qiu looked at Li Heng: "The king of the county is really a pure heart, no wonder the old man looks at you and falls in love with you." ”

The corners of Li Heng's mouth twitched, is this the sorrow of a smart person? You can even guess the correct answer by guessing randomly! Bad old man! Who wants to fall in love with you! Who wants to fall in love with you! Who wants to fall in love with you!

Mu Zhizhen was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said with a smile: "I see, I lost, but listening to Mr. said this is also a great benefit." Saying that, Mu Zhizhen made a big salute to Mr. Qiu.

Mr. Qiu sat down and accepted it, and asked Xue Xingyi, who was silent on the side: "Xue Gongzi also chose the pair on the right, but what is the reason?"

Xue Xingyi glanced at the private room where Li Heng was, and said lightly: "No, I just saw these two paintings before, so I just heard this allusion from Mr., and I lost this game." ”

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xue Xingyi in surprise when they heard this, a little unclear. It's already in the end, and now there are only Xue Xingyi and Li Heng left, how can you say that Xue Xingyi has a bigger chance of winning than these two, but Xue Xingyi admits defeat at this juncture?

The fifth prince said: "Zixu has seen these two paintings, isn't this the will of heaven? ”

The Sixth Prince thought for a moment and nodded, "That's true. ”

The Eighth Prince even said: "How can you admit defeat if you want to choose an apprentice?" You also have to see what Mr. Qiu means, right?" If Xue Xingyi admits defeat, then Mr. Qiu's apprentice will be Li Heng, how can this work!

The three princes all said so, and everyone present also agreed, feeling that Xue Xingyi should not admit defeat.

Even Li Heng coaxed: "The little master was also right just now." The surname Xue is that you admit defeat and throw the mess to the master. I'm not going to do it!"

Mr. Qiu said with a smile: "Xue Gongzi also answered correctly, why admit defeat? ”

Xue Xingyi's gaze skimmed over the people in the private room where Li Heng was, but He Linwan's figure was just blocked by Li Yu. Xue Xingyi frowned and was about to look again. Li Yu suddenly raised his eyes and looked over. The eyes of the two met in mid-air, one indifferent and the other cold. But it makes people feel a sense of tension that is about to erupt.

Li Heng, who was sitting on the other side of Li Yu, noticed that something was wrong, and looked at Li Yu's line of sight, and saw that it was Xue Xingyi, and Li Heng, who rarely understood Li Yu's various negative emotions, immediately sensed a trace of dangerous hostility from Li Yu's expression.

Li Yu couldn't help but ask Li Yu in a hesitant voice, "Brother, have you had a holiday with this kid surnamed Xue?"

Li Yu said coldly: "No." ”

Li Heng couldn't help but feel a little inexplicable, what are you doing with your eyes and arrows at people without a holiday?

I didn't want to, but I heard Li Yu continue: "It's just that he doesn't like it." ”

Li Heng blinked, turned his head and went to a large number of Xue Xingyi, Xue Xingyi had already retracted his gaze.

Li Heng touched his chin and commented on Xue Xing's clothes: "I didn't notice it before, but when I heard you say this, I seem to have smelled a different breath from him." ”

Yuan gradually said curiously: "What kind of breath can you smell so far away?"

Li Heng grinned with Yuan Yan's signature smile, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "The smell of scum! ”

Yuan gradually couldn't help but feel a little itchy in his hands, but after glancing at Li Yu, he was not good at cleaning up the bear children in other people's homes when his parents were present, so he made a mouth gesture of "you wait for me" towards Li Heng.

Li Heng smiled proudly at Yuan.

They were laughing on the side, but He Linwan couldn't laugh. Although Xue Xingyi didn't see her just now because Li Yu was in front of her, because of the angle, He Linwan saw Xue Xingyi's eyes.

She knew very well that Xue Xingyi had just suspected something before she looked here.

He Linwan didn't know what Mr. Qiu meant, the things he took out today turned out to be from her Yang Mansion, and these two paintings were also in her grandfather's study.

Once, when He Linwan happened to take out the calligraphy and paintings in his grandfather's study to dry, Xue Xingyi came to Yang's mansion, and was led by the maid to find her, and when she saw the same two calligraphy and paintings when she helped her dry calligraphy and paintings, she asked him to guess which of these two paintings was genuine, Xue Xingyi was not interested in these, so naturally she couldn't guess, so she told him the allusions to these two paintings.

Coincidentally, the words she said at that time were somewhat similar to those Li Heng said today. He Linwan couldn't help but smile bitterly, this is really a coincidence.

It's just that when Xue Xingyi asked her if this imitation was painted by her, she didn't tell the truth.
