404 is beautiful and eye-opening

Jiangzhou Mansion, post station.

"Oh~~Brother Liu~~" In the early morning, Master Bao, who was walking outside the courtyard, saw Liu Dongshan, who was busy in the courtyard, and stepped forward to say hello with a smile.

For the safety of Liu Dongshan, and because of the debt to the couple, Liu Dongshan and Lord Bao were arranged in the same courtyard, so that it was convenient to take care of them.

In the entire post house, the courtyard where Lord Bao is located is the most heavily guarded, and the arrangement here also shows their importance and favor to Liu Dongshan.

They all knew very well about Li Banxia's affairs, and when they thought that Dr. Li almost lost his life because of this incident, Master Bao and the others were also embarrassed, and they must not let the couple have anything happen to them.

Zhan Yang was ordered to go out early in the morning, Mr. Gongsun went outside for Lord Bao to visit and inquire about some important matters, Lord Bao had just finished handling official business and was resting outside for a while, when he saw Liu Dongshan with his back to him, bowing his head and doing something.

Now, he is also half a master, how Liu Dongshan lives here, he, as the master, should also care about one or two. Moreover, it is rare that Brother Liu understands the righteousness so well and is willing to cooperate with them, which also makes Lord Bao look at this young man differently.

"It's Lord Bao, Liu Dongshan, a grass person, to meet your lord." Liu Dongshan was about to salute as he spoke, but was stopped by Master Bao.

"Brother Liu doesn't have to be polite, just treat it like your own home here, don't be too restrained, if you need anything, just say it, and I will do it for you." By the way, Brother Liu, how did you sleep last night? ”

Master Bao thought about it carefully, and it was difficult for him to ask this. He came all the way to find his wife. Now I haven't even seen my wife's face, and my heart is naturally worried. How can you put your mind down and sleep peacefully?

Liu Dongshan is a very careful person and a person who is very considerate of others. Even if he really couldn't sleep well, how could he say such ignorant words? He stayed at the post station, and was taken care of by Zhan Guards and Lord Bao, so how could he say anything rude.

So, Liu Dongshan nodded, "The post station has a high bed and soft pillows, and everything is readily available, which is much better than the grass people's homes." The grass people slept until dawn, and Lord Xie was concerned. ”

He felt that although he slept extremely unsteadily, he didn't say anything false, and the environment of this post station was much better than that of the Liu family. It's just that no matter what the environment, there is no Li Banxia who sleeps comfortably beside him.

Sleep all night, wake up, wake up, wake up, sleep. On the one hand, he was worried and worried about his wife, who was not far from him, and on the other hand, he was very tired and had just recovered from a serious illness. In the past two days, people have been about to collapse. Finally, I finally fell asleep in exhaustion, but I woke up from my dreams again and again. Confused and dizzy, he almost thought he was having a fever again.

Lord Bao listened to Liu Dongshan's words, and saw the shadow next to his eyes. I knew what was going on, and I was smart enough not to bring up the topic again.

Noticing that he was holding something in his hand, he took a closer look. It's actually an inkstone. On top of the stone table in the courtyard, there is also a carving knife. Lord Bao recognized that this was a carving knife specially carved inkstones. I couldn't help but ask curiously: "Brother Liu." I just saw you busy here, I don't know what you're busy with, can you tell the old man? ”

Master Bao's voice was kind and kind, very different from his majesty in front of people. It is said that when Lord Bao was promoted to the court to try the case, the children would cry in fright when they saw it. Liu Dongshan also heard some rumors about the most famous Qing official of the dynasty, but it was far from the rumored majesty. This lord is like the most kind elder, and even his speech is so pleasant.

Liu Dongshan has something other than respect for this Lord Bao, this kind of thing is called closeness.

Whoever faces such a good official who is praised by the people and is so kind to people will love him with admiration.

"If you have nothing to do, carve some gadgets and pass the time."

"Can you show the old man?"

"Your Excellency is gracious." Liu Dongshan handed the inkstone to him, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart. He didn't want anyone to see his carving, because he hadn't consulted the Master yet.

Liu Dongshan respects Xiao Jiang very much, and naturally he will not disobey his master's words, and he also knows that his master has no choice but to do this. However, not long ago, the master said that he could go out of the mountain, did this mean that he was tacitly allowed to show his carving skills in front of others? At this time, he just gave this simple inkstone to Lord Bao for a look, and no one could refuse this request, even if the master knew, he would not blame him.

Lord Bao took the inkstone, held it in his hand and looked at it, and gradually, his eyes froze, and his eyes brightened a little. Walked to the table and sat down, holding the inkstone in both hands, facing the daylight, and carefully observed.

At first, he was just out of curiosity and wanted to see what Liu Dongshan was doing, although with the advantage of his eyes and the subtlety of his observation, he could roughly guess that Liu Dongshan was carving. He thought he was just doing what he said, passing the time, carving and playing to kill the time, I have to say, this thing is very easy to consume. However, when he looked down, even the well-informed Lord Bao was stunned.

One hand carefully rubs a lotus flower on the inkstone, the lotus leaves are distinct, each other, all kinds of chisels are used alternately, and the carving technique and the inkstone shape and inkstone style achieve amazing coordination. Through the skillful carving art, the design concept is perfectly expressed, so that the stone and art processing can reach the realm of "the unity of nature and man" and "the integration of things and me", and finally form the "heaven and labor, the beauty of the two".

Liu Dongshan waited beside him, and Master Bao held the inkstone, looking a little excited.

"My lord—" Mr. Gongsun returned. Dressed in a green cloth robe, he stood not far away and saluted Lord Bao. turned to look at Liu Dongshan again, and smiled slightly, "Brother Liu." ”

"Mr. Gongsun-" Liu Dongshan also nodded busily.

Mr. Gongsun Fang came back from outside, and looking at his expression, it was obvious that he had something important to discuss with Master Bao. Although Lord Bao was reluctant, he still handed the inkstone back to Liu Dongshan, and said with a smile: "Brother Liu is skilled, a small lotus flower, under the hands of Brother Liu, it seems to be injected with life, elegant and quiet, fragrant and revealed, it is really beautiful, and it is an eye-opener for the old man!" ”

"The adult has won the award, how dare the adult be so praised for his skills?"

Master Bao's wise eyes flashed with a hint of clarity, patted Liu Dongshan's hand, and smiled inexplicably: "Brother Liu is too modest, if your skills are all the last, then others are not here with you to get an axe and self-destruct the signboard?" ”

"Your Excellency seems to have discovered something interesting." As soon as Mr. Gongsun turned the corner, he said what he was thinking. has been following adults for so many years, and he knows very well that adults will only reveal such an inexplicable light when they find promising young people or anything unimaginable. Well, it's like an old fox~~

"Oh~~ Mr. Gongsun also found out?"

"It must have something to do with the inkstone in the hands of adults." It's just a very ordinary inkstone, adults have always been honest, although they are in a high position, they are all simple, like the end of the inkstone and the blood inkstone, such as the precious things, the adults don't need it.

"Exactly." Master Bao stroked his beard, "This young man is not simple, each of us underestimates him." After these two days of getting along, they saw Liu Dongshan's simplicity and kindness, loyalty and enthusiasm. They always thought that he was an honest country boy, and such a young man was also excellent, responsible and honest. But where did you ever think that such a young man has the skill of inkstone carving that is enough to shock the entire inkstone altar?

"What do you mean ...... adults?"

"Huh! Don't say it, don't say it, when the time comes, Mr. Gongsun will understand. "Now, it's not time to reveal that secret. Before the matter is clear, it is better for him, an old man, not to be troubled and cause trouble to their young people.

After hearing this, Mr. Gongsun had to laugh and accept this extra-large "guanzi".

"By the way, Mr. Gongsun, did you get something out of this trip?"

"As adults expected, there's already action over there. I sent Su An and Yang Chun to stay there and wait, and they will come back to inform us if there is any movement. ”

"Very good, Lord Gongsun has worked hard."

"I dare not speak hard about the things that are within my humble position."

…………

At sunset, Zhan's escort returned to the inn.

At the first time, he reported the latest information to Lord Bao, and Lord Bao, Zhan Guard, and Mr. Gongsun stayed in the study for most of the hour before seeing him come out of the house.

This is nothing, they discussed important matters, even if they stayed for a few hours, it was understandable, but they were just lying on the roof and staring at the beautiful girl waiting for Zhan Yang to come out with big eyes.

It was a very beautiful and lovely girl, dressed in a tight red dress, which made her delicate figure even more upright. The complexion is clean and flawless, like a piece of fine jade. Two long eyebrows, like a crescent moon in the sky.

She made a special trip to find Zhan Yang, but this guy couldn't help but pity the jade, and let a big beauty like her lie on the roof starving and cold, but he ignored it. Well, he didn't know that she Miss Yan was coming, so he inadvertently snubbed her, and those who didn't know were not guilty.

But what is wrong with herself, just because of a whim, I want to surprise him and create a unique meeting, but I didn't expect her to encounter such a situation before she showed up, but it really made her intestines regret.

However, she has been lying on her stomach for so long, if she is allowed to go down so obediently now, sitting in the yard and waiting for her, then she will not be reconciled.

I really don't know how three big men can be more nagging than women. How long has it been, nagging, nagging, and still having an end?
