As soon as Liu Yunxiang returned to the backyard, Murong Zhixi came in a hurry, asked her what was going on, and asked if she could help.

"When I need your help, I won't be polite. ”

Murong Zhixi nodded hurriedly, "There is no need to be polite between the two of us." ”

"The Shoufu Mansion hasn't troubled you recently, has it?" Liu Yunxiang pulled Murong Zhixi to Luohan's bed, she now had a big belly and was uncomfortable to sit on, she put a pillow behind her and let her lean on.

"After I heard that you returned home, I sent away all the dowry maids and servants that my mother gave me, and my courtyard was also replaced by new people. My mother sent me a message to go home, but I didn't go back because I was unwell, and then my father came to see me once and asked me if I was angry about their plan to marry my second sister to the king. I said yes bluntly, but my father didn't say anything, just let me take care of it and left. ”

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said: "Let's put it this way, your father and your mother have different purposes, your father is to entrap the British king, and your mother just wants your second sister to marry well, which means that your father and mother will have different attitudes towards this matter." Your father cares more about whether your chess piece is useful or not, and if it does, he doesn't need to add another extra one, and he has to risk being separated from you. Your mother, don't worry about it, she puts your second sister first, and it can be said that she has given up on you a long time ago. It's cruel to say, but you have to know how to find a balance in the middle and keep your position. ”

Murong Zhixi digested Liu Yunxiang's words for a while, with a sad expression on her face, "I know what you said is right, but I ......"

Liu Yunxiang took Murong Zhixi's hand and put it on her stomach, "You are about to become a mother, you have to be sober and strong enough to protect your child." ”

Born in the royal family, the British king still has ambitions, which means that there are many dangers.

And Liu Yunxiang later thought carefully about it, King Ying successfully seized the throne and ascended the throne as Yingzong, she remembered that it seemed that he had been suffering from having no heirs, and he had a daughter first in middle age, and then added a prince, and the heirs were thin.

If this is calculated, the child in Murong Zhixi's womb will not be saved.

Remember the URL

Murong Zhixi stroked his belly, and then nodded heavily, "Yunxiang, you're right, I can't be afraid, I have to protect my child!"

"Well, if there's anything difficult, remember to talk to me. ”

"Good!"

Sending Murong Zhixi away, Liu Yunxiang called a guy named Chen Chong to him, and Zhang Qi specially mentioned this Chen Chong to her, saying that he had good ability and could be reused.

"I have two things for you to do right now. ”

Chen Chong nodded, "You say." ”

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said, "First thing, I want you to find a shop, and I want to open a study." ”

"Huh?"

This Nanhong Mansion has become a pit, why do you want to open another shop, Chen Chong unabashedly expressed his incomprehension.

"Help me find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, I want to make an elegant gathering. ”

"Huh?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "You go and do it first." ”

Chen Chong is tall, strong, and simple-looking, and he doesn't look like a smart person, but since Zhang Qi recommended him, Liu Yunxiang has no doubts.

Chen Chong scratched his head, but didn't ask much, "Okay, let's do it for the small one." ”

Early the next morning, Liu Yunxiang deliberately changed into the clothes of a maidservant, and asked Chen Chong to pick out a well-fitting ready-to-wear from the shop.

Chen Chong changed into a robe, his hair was combed well, and his temperament was different.

"Boss, what are we going to do here?"

"You come with me somewhere. ”

When I came to Avon Xuan, there were many scholars gathered in front of the door, and they were lining up to go inside. There is also a small gate next to it, and people who come here do not need to queue up, and they get a sign and go in.

Liu Yunxiang stepped forward to inquire, and those who entered from here were all interested in bidding for calligraphy and painting.

"My owner plans to buy a few calligraphy and paintings, can I get a sign?" Liu Yunxiang said.

The one who handed out the sign was a middle-aged man, who glanced at Chen Chong and said, "I don't know who this boss is?"

"South Inkshop. ”

"Nan Mo Zhai?" the man thought for a moment, "There is this study in the capital?"

"It's not long since it opened, it's the time when the famous painting of this name is missing. Liu Yunxiang said and took out a piece of silver and gave it to the man, "My owner is arrogant and wants to buy eight out of ten." ”

The man looked at Chen Chong again, and the darkness was bright, and he really looked like a local tyrant.

"Okay, you two go in, Tianzi No. 3. ”

Liu Yunxiang took the sign, beckoned to Chen Chong, and then walked inside. From this small door you enter the staircase, and from here you go up to the second floor, where you will find a long corridor surrounded by a circle of rooms.

A guy stepped forward, saw their sign, and led them to the No. 3 room of Tianzi.

The room is not large, with refreshments on the table, a terrace in front, a view of the lobby of Avon, and a chime playing on the front stage.

There was also a mahogany card and ten envelopes on the table, and according to the rules, when it was time to sing and sell, the drums sounded, and during this period, the room held a red card, which means that they were going to bid. The drum beat again, and these people who wanted to bid wrote the price in an envelope and handed it to the people outside, and opened the envelope on the spot, and the one with the highest price won.

The bidders did not show up, hiding in this lattice-like box, while the non-bidders gathered below to watch the excitement.

Chen Chong glanced down and said, "There are so many people!"

Liu Yunxiang took a breath of tea, "More people are better." ”

The chimes on the stage stopped, and the singing and selling began, first began to sell a few inkstones, pen washes, and wolf hair, which first heated up the hot field, and Liu Yunxiang did not bid here.

Waiting for the next one, it is the only well-preserved painting of the former dynasty saint Zhang Jian, it is said that this Jianshan landscape painting is a very famous painter of the previous dynasty. But because he painted a "picture of Lishan", the palace that the emperor cultivated in Lishan at that time into the painting, the lights are bright, and the gold is brilliant, some people say that his painting is an allusion to the emperor's extravagance.

The emperor was furious, not only killed Zhang Jian, but also burned all his paintings, and a generation of painting saints fell, only a false name, not even a posthumous work.

"This one is the painting "Lishan Map" painted by the painter Zhang Jian!" said the person who presided over the bidding.

There was an uproar below, and they all asked Zhang Jian if his words were all burned, how could there still be a surviving world?

"This "Lishan Tu" was originally going to be thrown into the furnace, but Li Zheng, the cabinet elder at that time, spent a lot of money to buy off the people inside, secretly transferred it to him, and kept it in his mansion until the fall of the previous dynasty, and this painting was transferred to our Yafangxuan. ”

The people below have been amazed again and again, and the person is not lively enough, and there are still traces of burning in one of the two scrolls.

"Let's see the real thing!"

"Yes, whoever buys it, let us take a look at it. ”

The people below began to coax, and the host waved his hand, "Everyone, be quiet, let's start bidding." ”
