That night, Yan Qing and Li Kui stayed in Li's mansion, and the next day they discussed with Tong Guan for an hour before saying goodbye to Li Yan.

Li Yan was still handling his daily work as usual in the morning. For the sake of this war, everyone did not celebrate the New Year in a down-to-earth manner, so Li Yan did not hesitate to take out 10,000 taels of silver to reward everyone, and the right was rewarded at the end of the year.

A hero with three gangs, a fence with three piles, Li Yan knows very well that those who achieve great things must have the conditions, especially in this era, prestige is more important than anything else.

Han Shizhong didn't say it, but the meaning was very clear, he hoped to arrange for Tong Guan to return to Beijing as soon as possible, if he really started a war with Liao, he would definitely join the army, even if he was only a small soldier who charged into battle, he would not hesitate.

In the afternoon, Li Yan chatted with Li Bei'er restlessly, and Xiao Qi ran to say that Tong Guan wanted to see him and discuss something.

When I came to the study, I saw that Chen He didn't know when he arrived, and it could be seen that the two were talking happily, and the atmosphere in the room was very harmonious.

After a night's rest, the big eunuch Tong Guan's face returned to normal, and his graceful temperament was undoubtedly displayed, seeing Li Yan come in, he got up to greet him with a smile, his tone was extremely polite, and there was no trace of condescending.

Of course, after all, he is still under "house arrest", and a fool will be powerful at this time.

Inevitably polite, Tong Guan praised the food of the Li Mansion, and said bluntly: "The miscellaneous family was not very optimistic about the small portal people in the past, but they could make some stinky money, swagger, and live a life that they thought was extravagant, in fact, compared with the real nobles in Kyoto, the difference was 80,000 miles, but staying in the Li Xiaoguanren Mansion for so much a day really made the miscellaneous family impressed." ”

The more Tong Guan spoke, the more excited he became, patted Li Yan's hand on the table, and said mysteriously: "But I didn't expect that the ancestors of Li Xiaoguan's family and the miscellaneous family were the same kind of people." ”

Well?

Li Yan was a little confused by what he said, and said suspiciously: "This, I don't know what kind of people Master Tong refers to?" ”

After that, looking at Tong Guan again, he was obviously stunned, and his smile suddenly disappeared, Zou looked at Li Yan for a long time with a frown, and saw that he didn't look like he was pretending, and asked, "Li Xiaoguan really doesn't understand?" ”

"Li is stupid, he really didn't guess it, and asked Master Tong to tell him bluntly."

"Then let me ask you, this house is not handed down by the clan, right?" Tong Guan cocked his orchid finger and pointed to the roof of the shed.

"Ah, yes, it's not from the clan." Li Yan said vaguely.

Tong Guan nodded: "That's right, you see, the painting on this beam has a name, called Hexi Painting, also known as the Golden Dragon and the Seal, this kind of painting, only the Holy Ruisi Hall has it, ordinary people, even if they have never seen it." ”

Li Yan came to his senses, nodded again and again, he hadn't paid attention to it before, but when he glanced at it just now, he was also startled, and he really drew a five-clawed golden dragon.

This is not a trivial matter, at best, it is a rebellion, thinking that this eunuch is really ambitious, and it is ridiculous to make such a show in his study, do you think this is the emperor?

However, it can't be concluded from this that he is the same kind of person, maybe it is a minister who has returned to his hometown, how can he be sure that he is a eunuch?

As if seeing Li Yan's doubts, Tong Guan continued: "When I walked to the gate of the mansion yesterday, Tong had this question in his heart. Why the stone lions at the door are both male, today I saw the golden dragon and the seal painting, and the calligraphy and painting hanging in the star picking building, the miscellaneous family knew that the original owner of this house was still a colleague of this dynasty, if the miscellaneous family did not guess wrong, it should be the Guangnan town guard to make the old man Hua Da and the old man. ”

Li Yan was speechless, it seems that he has to be well-informed, if he didn't know it from his mouth, I am afraid that he would not know for the rest of his life, the stone lion at the door is actually a male and a female.

But, what's going on with the painting of the Star Picking Tower?

Li Bei'er once commented on those paintings, but only said that they were okay.

If it is possible that the stone lion has touched on Li Bei'er's knowledge shortcomings, she doesn't know the Tao in it, and it makes sense.

But in the field of calligraphy and painting, that is what Li Bei'er is best at, if it is really related to eunuchs, then he will definitely tell himself, so as not to hang there in shame all the time.

"I wonder what's so special about the calligraphy and paintings in the Star Picking Tower?" Li Yan couldn't help but ask curiously.

Tong Guan covered his mouth with his orchid fingers, let out a burst of ugly laughter, and said: "Li Xiaoguan is really illiterate, those paintings are very tight, they are all from people with the same surname, and hey, there is no market, and miscellaneous families are hard to find, I didn't expect to see seven at once." ”

Is it hard to find?

This is just the opposite of what Li Bei'er said, could it be that this old bird coaxed himself to be happy?

"Don't you kid Li, although Li doesn't understand, he once found someone to identify it, and told him that it is not a famous product and is not worth a few dollars." Li Yandao.

After hearing this, Tong Guan was extremely angry, slapped the table and shouted: "What kind of stupid person said it, bring it to see the miscellaneous family, what does he know, those seven paintings are all the masterpieces of this pilgrim." ”

"What?" Li Yanwei screamed and confirmed: "Master Tong said that those seven paintings are all masterpieces of today's saints?" ”

Tong Guan corrected: "It's not a saint today, it's a pilgrim, there are two Yingzong, two Shenzong, two Zhezong, and one Zhenzong." ”

Li Yan was stunned, distressed, such a valuable thing was left there and no one cared for, let it fall into ashes, it was really a violent thing, Li Bei'er, Li Bei'er......

It's too pit!

Looking at Tong Guan's glowing eyes, Li Yan gritted his teeth and decided to be generous again.

"You can't let Tong come for nothing, Tong can pick two pieces to take away first, go back to the house and enjoy it slowly, I will also study it, and the rest will be given to adults when Li finishes appreciating it."

This time it was Tong Guan's turn to sit still, and he opened his throat and said, "Really? ”

Li Yan nodded affirmatively, and said secretly: Whether you give the rest or not, it depends on your performance, since you like it so much, then use words to cover it first, so that there is another life amulet.

Tong Guan couldn't close his mouth in surprise, while he was happy, he secretly admired Li Yan's atmosphere, this kind of character is definitely not something that small Yanggu County can tolerate.

There are many factions in Kyoto, and there are not many people with such a clear background and outstanding ability.

While its foundation is stable, it will be taken under his command first, and he will definitely become his right-hand man in the future.

Thinking of this, the great eunuch Tong Guan's face was wrinkled, and his smile was obviously different from before, without any falsehood, and said:

"From now on, Li Xiaoguan's affairs are in trouble, and they are miscellaneous affairs."

Li Yan was a little embarrassed: "Master Tong, Li has a request that is not worth talking about. ”

"Tell you"

"Can you let Li enter Beijing as an official?" Li Yan said with a weak heart.
