Chapter 013: A Great Gift That Doesn't Cost a Penny
"Shopkeeper, our young lady bought this painting to give it to the governor of Jiangnan, if it is delayed because of you, can you afford it?" Miao Chun threatened.
Liu Shihua has always been low-key, and she didn't want others to know her identity, she glared at Miaochun fiercely, Miaochun quickly took the words back and didn't say any more.
"Little girl, the most important thing for a businessman is a letter, since I have promised that son, there is absolutely no reason to break my word, otherwise if this matter is known by my peers, wouldn't it be a smash of my Zhihuazhai's signboard." The shopkeeper put on the appearance of a conscientious businessman, and said it categorically.
Liu Shihua smiled faintly, "Shopkeeper, how much does the boy bid for this painting, and I will add an extra thousand taels of silver, what do you think?" ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately smiled, "Okay, good, since the girl is so generous, I can't hide it, the boy bid 5,000 taels, if the young lady is really willing to give an extra 1,000 taels of silver, this painting will belong to the girl." ”
Liu Shihua sighed, fortunately, that person paid a price of five thousand taels, and one thousand taels more was only six thousand taels, Liu Shihua won the championship of the dance conference in Yanyu Qinhuai some time ago, plus her savings on weekdays, she could only take out six or seven thousand taels.
As soon as the words fell, Liu Shihua didn't have time to answer, only to hear a voice from outside the door, "Shopkeeper, I obviously told you, I am mine no matter what this painting is, since this girl pays six thousand taels of silver, it is not difficult for me to be the shopkeeper, no matter how much this girl bids, I will pay one thousand taels more than her." ”
Liu Shihua turned his eyes to see, and what walked in from outside the door was a man in a blue brocade robe, this dress was extremely luxurious, the cuffs of the collar were rolled with gold edges, and the belt around the waist was actually made of gold wire. Looking at his face again, he has a handsome face, his skin is as white as snow, his eyebrows are delicate, and his lips are like cherry blossoms, I am afraid that even a woman standing by his side will be a little ashamed.
"Yo, Childe is coming back so soon?" The shopkeeper saw the boy in blue and greeted him with a smile.
The boy in blue replied unhappily, "If I were one step late, wouldn't this painting fall into the hands of others?" ”
"Childe, the little one is a businessman, I ......," the shopkeeper sneered embarrassedly.
"Okay, I know, the interests of businessmen come first, wrap the paintings for me. I'll give you 10,000 taels, what do you think? The man in blue raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liu Shihua with a smug expression, as if he was showing off his victory.
It seems that this boy in blue is not easy to deal with. Liu Shihua desperately thought of ideas, no matter what, this painting couldn't be taken away by him, but this son was rich and inevitable, and Liu Shihua didn't know what to do for a while.
In silence, the shopkeeper had already wrapped the painting and handed it to the man in blue.
Liu Shihua was just about to stop him, but Ah Chen pulled the corner of Liu Shihua's clothes and said in a low voice, "Don't make a sound, leave this matter to me." ”
Liu Shihua looked at Ah Chen suspiciously, not knowing why, but there was an indescribable certainty in Ah Chen's eyes, so she simply didn't say anything, waiting to see what Ah Chen could do.
The boy in blue took the painting, paid the silver ticket, and before leaving, he didn't forget to hold up the painting and show off to Liu Shihua, "If the girl really loves this painting, she can go to my house to watch it when she has time." ”
Liu Shihua glared at him and didn't make a sound, for this kind of proud and selfish, who likes to show off, Liu Shihua has always been very disgusted.
The boy in blue was just about to go out, but was stopped by Ah Chen, "Brother An, take a step to speak." ”
The boy in blue didn't notice Ah Chen, thinking that he was just an entourage, but the moment he was stopped by Ah Chen, his eyes fell on Ah Chen's face, he was taken aback, and he even spoke, "You...... It's you? ”
"Brother An, take a step to speak." Ah Chen interrupted the blue-clothed boy and pulled him outside the door.
The boy in blue was already stunned and was at the mercy of Ah Chen.
"Why are you here? Who is that woman? How did you end up like this? The boy in blue was full of doubts, and he couldn't wait to ask it all at once.
Ah Chen waved his hand, "I will handle my affairs, I don't need to explain it to you, but you have to keep the secret of my identity for me, and you can't let anyone in Jinling City know." ”
The boy in blue didn't know what kind of medicine was bought in Ah Chen's gourd, so he nodded and agreed, "It has something to do with what happened in the palace?" ”
The incident in the palace in the mouth of the blue-clothed boy was the theft of the Heavenly Sword.
Ah Chen didn't answer, he didn't seem to want the boy in blue to know too much, he avoided the topic, changed the conversation, and said in a commanding tone, "Give me the painting in your hand." ”
The boy in blue is not an obedient character, how can he say that he will give, "Why?" What if I don't give it? ”
Ah Chen threatened with a calm face, "Don't forget, I have your handle in my hand, if I tell the emperor about that matter, your An family and Princess Linglong will only have a dead end." Ah Chen's appearance and cold tone added a bit of majesty, and the deferential appearance in front of Liu Shi's picture was simply like two people.
"You ......" The man in blue was shocked, and if he was caught, he would inevitably be controlled by others.
The blue-clothed boy hesitated, and Ah Chen took an extra handful of paintings from his hand, "Thank you Brother An for the gift." ”
The boy in blue is not without the ability to resist, but he does not dare to resist, he does not want to gamble with the lives of his whole family for the sake of a painting.
Ah Chen took the painting and turned around excitedly to find Liu Shihua.
Liu Shihua had been waiting in the distance, and when she saw Ah Chen pulling the man in blue out, she knew that there was something she didn't want her to hear, so she didn't follow along.
"Miss, your painting." Ah Chen held the painting in both hands and handed it to Liu Shihua.
Liu Shihua ordered Miaochun to take it and put it away, but his heart was full of doubts, who was this boy in blue, and why Ah Chen was able to extinguish his arrogance with a while of effort and ask for the painting back.
"You can't be stealing, are you?" Liu Shihua looked at Ah Chen suspiciously and asked, in fact, she had a lot of things she wanted to ask, but she was afraid that she would ask about things that Ah Chen couldn't say, which would make Ah Chen embarrassed.
Ah Chen replied disapprehantly, "Of course not, I'm not a habitual thief, the last time I stole the hollow golden phoenix was just a last resort." ”
Liu Shihua replied shallowly, and did not ask any further, "Oh." ”
Ah Chen suddenly asked, "Isn't Miss curious about the identity of that boy in blue?" ”
Liu Shihua's lips opened lightly, "He is generous, gorgeously dressed, and must be from an extraordinary background, but I'm sure he is not from Jinling." ”
In Jinling City, I have heard of all the characters with heads and faces, but I have never heard of such a son.
"Of course he is not from Jinling, he is An Ruozhan, the son of King Ping." Ash replied.
