Chapter 24: The Painter (II)
Looking up at the sky, there were large and large black clouds one after another, and it seemed that it would rain again soon, and it was estimated that it would be about two hours before it got dark, and it would be dark if you walked
I definitely couldn't get to the Xu Family Inn before. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ Thinking of this, Luo Qingchuan also agreed to Jiao Bingzhen's proposal.
When the two walked for more than an hour, the weather suddenly changed, the eyes blown by the whizzing west wind were difficult to open, and there were bursts of muffled thunder overhead, and the sky was also overlooked by the dark clouds in the sky
Black, it looks like the fifth watch, saying that black is not black, and it is not bright.
Seeing that the weather suddenly became like this, Luo Qingchuan, who has modern weather knowledge, of course knew that this was an omen before the rain, and just as she was about to tell Jiao Bingzhen the news, she saw Jiao Bingzhen.
Sou! He jumped on the brown horse, and shouted to Luo Qingchuan with an anxious face: "Come up quickly, if we delay for half a moment, we will be drenched in the heavy rain in the sky.
It's not easy to walk on the road, come up quickly. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Luo Qingchuan.
Luo Qingchuan hesitated slightly, then stretched out his hand, Jiao Bingzhen pulled, and Luo Qingchuan jumped up with his strengthγγγγγγ
Although they rode fast on horses, Luo Qingchuan and Jiao Bingzhen still couldn't escape the bad luck of being drenched in the rain in the end. Just fifty steps away from the Land Temple, a sudden thunderclap sounded in the sky, and immediately after
The raindrops of beans smashed down on the head and face.
This is not more unlucky, when they dismounted and came to the land temple, they saw that the surrounding eaves were already crowded under the inch, and there were all these people, but the refugees in it still accounted for the majority
, Jiao Bingzhen saw that there were too many people sheltering from the rain here, and it became a problem to stand on the eaves to avoid the rain.
You can't just stand here and let the rain fall, right? Fortunately, the temple here has a good relationship. After Jiao Bingzhen bolted the horse to the stump, he quickly hid under the eaves, but as soon as he turned around, he saw Luo Qingchuan
The person stood in place in a daze, Jiao Bingzhen hurriedly took off his coat and propped himself up on top of Luo Qingchuan's head, and said anxiously: "I said, it's raining, why are you still standing here?" β
It's not that Luo Qingchuan doesn't want to go in, but there are too many people in front of him to take shelter from the rain, and they can't squeeze in at all. However, Jiao Bingzhen thought differently from Luo Qingchuan, and saw him dragging Luo
Harukawa squeezed under the eaves.
Don't really say it, Jiao Bingzhen squeezed in the east and squeezed in the west. But those passers-by who hid under the eaves to take shelter from the rain were unlucky, and they were squeezed by Jiao Bingzhen like this, standing on the very edge
The people were immediately squeezed outside, but Jiao Bingzhen dragged Luo Qingchuan and did not stop under the eaves, but walked directly to the main hall where the statue was enshrined.
Strangely, as soon as I entered the main hall, except for a statue of a god in the center, it was surprisingly silent inside, but there were still a lot of noises and rustling rain outside from time to time. That's right, only
Seeing two Qing soldiers with swords on their waists flashing out of the corner, one of them looked at Luo Qingchuan and Jiao Bingzhen, and shouted coldly: "Stop, the idlers can't wait to take shelter from the rain, the two of you."
Let's get out! β
The main hall where the statue of the god is enshrined is sitting in the south and facing north, and as soon as Luo Qingchuan came in, he couldn't adapt to the light inside, and the light in the hall was much darker than outside. At this time, I heard the man talk about it, Luo Qingchuan is here
Only then did I notice that there were still many people lying on the left and right sides of the statue, but most of these people were old people and children, and I saw that they were ragged and their faces were withered, and they looked like those who were suffering from diseases
People. But fortunately, there is still a doctor here, and I believe that these people's illnesses will definitely be cured.
I saw a middle-aged man in a black horse coat about forty years old, half-squatting on the ground, checking the pulse of an old man. At this moment, the two Qing soldiers saw that Luo Qingchuan and Jiao Bingzhen were deaf to what they said
didn't hear it, his face immediately fell, and he shouted angrily: "Did you hear it!" As he spoke, he was going to drive Luo Qingchuan and Jiao Bingzhen out.
"Presumptuous!" Jiao Bingzhen drank in a deep voice and scolded: "Blind your dog's eyes, get out!" β
That Qing soldier had been so angry, not to mention that Jiao Bingzhen was dressed as a civilian, and he couldn't recognize that the other party was also an official. However, just when the Qing soldier was about to attack Jiao Bingzhen, he suddenly heard it and squatted on the ground
The middle-aged man on the floor shouted coldly, "Who is yelling here? β
Hearing this, Jiao Bingzhen said excitedly: "But Brother Yangsun? β
Yang Sun is Jiang Tingxi's cousin, this Jiang Tingxi heard that the other party could hear who he was just by his voice, and immediately stood up from the ground, puzzled for a moment, and then asked: "But ,,," thought about it
Suddenly, he said, "Brother Erzheng? "There is not enough light in the hall, and Jiang Tingxi is also based on feelings.
The two Qing soldiers who were about to move to Luo Qingchuan and Jiao Bingzhen saw that the man in front of them could call out his own adult's words at once, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold, and then he saw his own adult also shouting
knew the other party's name, knew that he was unlucky, and hurriedly retreated to the corner.
"Someone, hold the lamp." As soon as Jiang Tingxi's words fell, he saw a Qing soldier light an oil lamp, and the hall lit up when it was neutral. At this time, Luo Qingchuan knew that the middle-aged man in front of him turned out to be a court painting
Division-Jiang Tingxi. However, she knew the name of this person but had never met him. Half of the eighth elder brother's danqing learned from this person, and it can be said that Jiang Tingxi is also half of the eighth elder brother's teacher.
"Brother Erzheng, I can see you." Jiang Tingxi shouted excitedly.
"After receiving my brother's letter, I rushed here non-stop, and my brother waited for a long time." Jiao Bingzhen arched his hand.
"Who is this?" At this time, Jiang Tingxi also noticed Luo Qingchuan standing at the door. However, because the sky of foreign trade had already darkened, Jiang Tingxi couldn't see his face clearly and didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he turned to Jiao
Bingzhen asked.
"Oh, big brother." Jiao Bingzhen hurriedly said: "This person claims to be the Fujin of the Eighth Prince, and I also ask my brother to recognize him." As he spoke, he glanced at Luo Qingchuan.
"Oh?" Jiang Tingxi's eyes narrowed slightly, he walked over to Luo Qingchuan, looked up and down, and suddenly laughed, and said, "Brother, which is the fortune of the eighth prince?" "Brother was deceived.
As he spoke, he instructed the two soldiers in the hall: "Go to the car outside, by the way, ask Lao Sun to bring the bottle of Shaoxing famous wine in the car, and I will be happy with my brother tonight."
γ β
When the two soldiers heard this, they hurriedly put on their robes and walked towards the tiles.
When Jiao Bingzhen heard Jiang Tingxi's words, she was immediately furious and was about to scold Luo Qingchuan. Suddenly, Jiang Tingxi knelt down in front of Luo Qingchuan and said in a low voice: "Minister Jiang Tingxi pays a visit to Bafujin." β
"Brother, you are." Jiao Bingzhen's words are not finished. I saw Jiang Tingxi anxiously said: "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry over and apologize to Bafujin." β
Jiao Bingzhen was also blindsided at this time, but Jiang Tingxi's words, he would never doubt it. "Chen Jiao Bingzhen knocked on the Eight Blessings."
"What are you?" For these two people, Luo Qingchuan had only heard of them in his mind, and had never met them at all.
Jiang Tingxi also thought of this, and hurriedly raised his head and added: "Bafujin, more than ten years ago, the minister was entrusted by the second elder brother to secretly follow Bafujin. β
"What?" Luo Qingchuan was surprised when he heard this.
"Bafujin asked to calm his anger, and the minister was also forced to be helpless at that time, and later, he painted a portrait of Fujin for the second elder brother."
Second elder brother? As soon as he heard this name, Luo Qingchuan's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he hurriedly asked Jiang Tingxi: "My lord, is the second elder brother okay now?" β
"Back to Fujin, I heard from the people of the Zongren Mansion a few days ago that the second elder brother has been in poor health recently, so the minister went to visit." Speaking of this, Jiang Tingxi didn't dare to say it, but looked up
One glance at Luo Qingchuan.
"How is the second elder brother?" Luo Qingchuan asked nervously: "Is his illness serious?" "Luo Qingchuan has always felt guilty about the matter of the second elder brother, if it weren't for himself, the second elder brother would not have brought anyone
forced the palace so that it was abolished and locked up in the Zongren Mansion for life. Every time she thought of this incident, Luo Qingchuan felt sad and guilty, she had also talked to Eighth Elder Brother about this matter, and she had also asked Eighth Elder Brother to think of a way.
"If you go back to Fujin, the second elder brother is really not doing well in the Zongren Mansion, but fortunately, there is a portrait of Fujin." Saying that, he cautiously glanced at Luo Qingchuan, and saw that Luo Qingchuan was not angry, so his heart was secretly relieved
Breath.
At this time, a burst of shouting and scolding came from outside, Jiang Tingxi hurriedly stood up, bowed down and hugged his fists and said: "Fujin is not the place to talk, please forgive the rudeness of the ministers." As he spoke, he pulled up and knelt down
Jiao Bingzhen on the ground.
Luo Qingchuan also saw Jiang Tingxi's helplessness, this person seemed to be very taboo about the two soldiers just now. Because, the voice coming from the window was the soldier's just now. Thinking of this, Luo Qingchuan nodded
Nodding, he replied, "I understand what my lord means. β
"Thank you Fujin." Jiang Tingxi clenched his fists and thanked him.
"Your Excellency." As he spoke, the two soldiers brought out some food and a bottle of wine.
After putting it down, I saw Jiang Tingxi wave his hand to the two of them, and said, "Okay, you don't need you here for the time being, go and get some dry food and go to the back room to boil a pot of porridge and distribute it to the people here!" β
When the two soldiers heard this, they hesitated, but saw Jiang Tingxi's face sank, and shouted angrily: "What, don't you want to? β
"Your Excellency will calm your anger, and you will go to your humble position." After saying that, he walked outside.
"Big brother seems to be right for these two?" Jiao Bingzhen's words were not finished, but Jiang Tingxi interrupted: "Brother, speak quietly, be careful that the wall has ears." As he spoke, he came to the back of the statue and to Luo Qingchuan
Clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "The conditions here are simple, please bear with Fu Jin." As he spoke, he used his sleeve to wipe the dust on the ground.
Luo Qingchuan hurriedly stopped and said, "No need for adults." He sat down. Because she knew that if she didn't sit down, the two of them wouldn't sit down first. PS: The capital has just begun, everyone
