Wang Guan didn't mean to hide it, and said bluntly: "The matter of illegal entry was instructed by him." ”

"It turned out to be him......" Chen Cong suddenly understood, then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said casually: "Do you want him to come forward and toast you to make amends?" ”

Don't doubt that Chen Cong does have this ability. In this island country, apart from those deep-rooted political families, Chen Cong didn't care about other parliamentarians and politicians at all.

"No need." Wang Guan shook his head and said with a smile: "A little conflict, just solve it, there is no need to make trouble in the city again." In fact, he didn't want to owe Chen Cong a favor.

"Hmm." Chen Cong nodded lightly and exclaimed, "You are really magnanimous. ”

"Magnanimous?"

Wang Guan smiled and felt that Li Hao would never think so. However, what Li Hao thinks has nothing to do with him. On the contrary, under Li Hao's angry gaze, he suddenly felt that this boring banquet had become much more interesting.

Gradually, the banquet was coming to an end. Mr. Li sent the guests out of the villa door one by one and shook hands to say goodbye......

In fact, the process of Mr. Li sending off guests is a etiquette in itself. Therefore, the order of everyone's departure seems to be very orderly, and even in a certain order, they go out one by one.

Ten minutes later, in terms of order, it should be Chen Cong and Wang Guan's turn. However, at this moment, Mr. Li suddenly said, "Two, please stay......"

Many people were surprised by Mr. Li's move. But. At this time, he could only put away his doubts, glanced at Chen Cong and Wang Guan, and left the villa under the gift of Mr. Li.

Most people think that Mr. Li mainly wants to talk about some private things with Chen Cong, and just leave Wang Guan behind by the way. But there are also some people who vaguely feel that retaining Wang Guan is Mr. Li's main purpose.

Whatever the reason. Anyway, Li Hao felt like he was going crazy. It was a kind of anger that burned but couldn't vent the grievances and bitterness, making him feel like his chest was going to explode. I was so stuffy that I wanted to vomit blood.

Of course, no matter what kind of mood Li Hao is in now, anyway, it was given by Mr. Li himself. No matter how reluctant he was, he could only walk out of the villa gate obediently like the other guests......

"I'm sorry to keep you two waiting!"

After seeing off all the guests, Mr. Li returned to the living room to greet Chen Cong and Wang Guan.

"It's okay......"

Chen Cong naturally smiled and waved his hand, and was polite to Mr. Li. However, after chatting for a few words, Mr. Li sat down on the sofa next to Wang Guan.

Seeing this situation, Chen Cong immediately understood that the protagonist of this meeting was not himself. At the moment, Chen Cong is also very knowledgeable. I took a cup of tea and tasted it. Sure enough, after Mr. Li smiled and nodded to Chen Cong, he took this opportunity to look at Wang Guan, and then asked politely: "This little brother, you are very interested in Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting?" ”

"It's not very well researched. It's just a little bit of understanding. Wang Guan said, feeling a little inexplicable, could it be that Mr. Li wanted to ask the teacher for the guilt and blamed himself for exposing the painting as a fake?

It doesn't look like it, though.

Facts have proved that Mr. Li is indeed not here to ask for guilt. Instead, he said with a pleasant face: "It can be seen that the little brother is also a person who loves painting, and his eyesight is extraordinary......"

"I can't talk about extraordinary eyesight, but I still have a little connoisseurship." Wang Guan was neither arrogant nor humble, but he was a little confused in his heart, and he couldn't figure out Mr. Li's purpose.

Fortunately, Mr. Li didn't go around in circles anymore, and said bluntly: "Little brother, I forgive you for taking the liberty of keeping you, in fact, I want to ask you to help me look at a painting." ”

"Huh?" Wang Guan was a little surprised, and hesitated: "What painting?" ”

"Tang Bohu's paintings." Mr. Li smiled, waved his hand slightly, and someone came up with a scroll.

It can be seen that Mr. Li cherishes this painting very much, and after putting on white gloves first, he carefully spread out the scroll and spread it smoothly on the clean table next to it.

"Little brother, please take a look." Mr. Li said politely, with a bit of expectation in his tone.

In this case, of course, Wang Guan would not refuse, and he did not think of refusing. After all, whether the painting is real or fake, careful observation and appreciation is a process of accumulation of experience.

At that moment, Wang Guan walked lightly to the table, looked down, and saw the whole picture, which also made him feel shocked, and his expression gradually became serious, even with a bit of surprise and disbelief.

Next to him, Chen Cong didn't know how to appreciate calligraphy and painting, but he was also a little curious and came over to watch. From his standpoint, I don't think this painting is very good. I saw that the picture was a cold forest, and the two pine trees on the left added a bleak atmosphere to this bare forest, and the sky was covered with crows, and the branches were full of crows, giving people a sense of desolation and sadness.

"The legendary Tang Yin Crow Formation Diagram!"

Wang Guan exhaled lightly and settled his mind, which can be regarded as suppressing his excitement.

"That's right, it's that crow formation."

Mr. Li's eyes were bright, showing a rich smile, and he sighed slightly: "Legend has it that Tang Yin hung this crow array at home one day, and immediately thousands of crows hovered across the roof, as if they were fighting, which is amazing. ”

"So amazing?"

Chen Cong was stunned for a moment, and his gaze when he looked at the picture suddenly became completely different.

"Of course, legends are just legends and can't be taken seriously. It is estimated that this legend is mainly to illustrate that Tang Bohu is very good at freehand flower and bird painting, and the crow array picture of the painting is full of realism and is his representative work. Mr. Li also had his own understanding, and then asked softly, "Little brother, what do you think of this painting?" ”

The implication of Mr. Li's words is that Wang Guan understands that he just wants to know the authenticity of this painting.

Wang Guan continued to look at the painting, but he didn't answer in a hurry, and asked after half a sound: "Mr. Li, you should have invited a lot of people to see this painting, right?" ”

"Uh...... That's right. Mr. Li hesitated for a moment before nodding lightly and said, "Those who have seen it say ......"

"Don't tell me what they've said, lest you preconceive of me." Wang Guan shook his head and interrupted Mr. Li's words.

In fact, there is no need for Mr. Li to say, Wang Guan also knows that there must be controversy in this painting. I guess for those who have seen it, some think that the painting is genuine, others think that it is a copy, or simply a fake. It's nothing more than these situations, everyone has their own opinions, so that Mr. Li doesn't know whose opinion to believe.

Otherwise, he would not have asked a young man like Wang Guan to help him look at the paintings......

To put it bluntly, Mr. Li is now a little sick and rushed to the doctor, no matter whether Wang Guan really understands it or not, as long as he says that this painting is genuine, Mr. Li must be very happy. Of course, after the fact, Mr. Li must have fallen into suspicion again, and continued to ask people to look at the paintings, and then the cycle continued......

Not to mention Mr. Li, even Wang Guan, before using his special ability, he didn't dare to easily judge the authenticity of the Crow Formation Diagram. Because this painting is so precious, as long as there is no sufficient evidence to prove that this painting is the authentic work of Tang Bohu, then Mr. Li must have been uneasy, constantly believing and doubting, and falling into a dead circle.

At this time, Wang Guan studied the picture again, and saw the whole picture, the layout was eclectic, the idea was novel, the brush and ink were dry and moist, the shades were natural, and the silent cold forest and the noisy crow array constituted a rural life of hope and disillusionment, vitality and suffocation. Looking at this picture, it makes people feel indescribably sad and depressed.

After a long time, Mr. Li finally couldn't help but ask, "Little brother, what do you think?" ”

At the right time, Wang Guancai slowly came back to his senses and said in a slight mutter: "Generally speaking, to identify the authenticity of a painting, to a large extent, it is necessary to start from the author's own background and life experience. After all, in addition to those works for entertainment, the author's creative intention is an important basis for judging the authenticity of the picture. ”

"Hmm."

Mr. Li nodded lightly in agreement. After all, in the market now, there are often some fabricated paintings, which often make people laugh and cry. For example, in the calligraphy and painting at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the imperial seal of Emperor Qianlong appeared, and for example, Tang Bohu was a figure in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, but the painting appeared before the Ming Dynasty celebrity appreciation seal.

All kinds of unreasonable "crossings" are the biggest flaws. Therefore, Wang Guancai said that it is necessary to pay attention to the background of the times.

"Mr. Li should know that a picture like the crow formation is a relatively cold subject. Generally speaking, it can't be a social work. Even if Tang Bohu was selling paintings for a living, it would be impossible for others to come to him and beg him to paint this kind of painting. Wang Guan was very sure.

"Why?" Chen Cong was very puzzled.

"In ancient times, to be precise, after the Tang and Song dynasties, the crow became a symbol of bad luck. The people who buy Tang Bohu's calligraphy and paintings are either high-ranking officials and nobles, or wealthy businessmen and gentry, etc., and it is impossible for this kind of person to ask for a crow formation to touch his own moldy head. ”

Wang Guan explained, and continued: "The crow array has always been the favorite of depressed and cynical literati. If it's a smug scene, who really likes such a theme? ”

In fact, as long as you have some knowledge of Tang Bohu's life, you will know that he, the first talented man in the south of the Yangtze River, is not as glamorous as everyone imagined, and it can even be said that he has been poor for most of his life. After his death, even the aftermath was arranged by a group of friends with money to help him deal with it, which is sad. ”

Wang Guan shook his head and sighed a little: "Therefore, Tang Bohu naturally has a very strong creative intention in such a situation, and it is undoubtedly a matter to depict a crow array to express his depressed mood." ”

"What the little brother means is that this painting is genuine." Mr. Li asked, a little joy in his eyes.

"Listen to me first."

Wang Guan was noncommittal, pointed to the crow array on the table and said, "Look here......"

"What's going on here?" Mr. Li took the opportunity to look over and saw that the direction Wang Guan was pointing to was a corner of the picture, where a strange stone was drawn, and there was a bare diseased tree on the side of the stone. There was also a flock of fallen jackdaws in the trees, forming a circle of crows in the air, which seemed desolate and lonely, lifeless. (To be continued)
