Chapter 42: Don't Call Cai Weidong to Return to Herself (6)
The book of paintings was lighter than she thought, she wanted to tear it with her hands, the skin of the painting was already half cut off, and suddenly remembered Lu Tanwei's stupid eyes, and remembered what Xiang Ye said: "He seems to have been born to paint", "I have never seen someone who is more talented and better than him".
Wen Qingyi stopped, hugged the album and twisted back to the couch. By the light of soybeans, she opened the first page, and from that time on, slowly, there was everything.
The first one is "The Purple Electric Mountain in the Middle Pond at the End of the Year".
The second is "Ten Thousand Beasts Food at the Beginning of the Sixteenth Dynasty".
The third is "Frozen North Green River Water in May......
When Si Ming saw it, he sighed and said, "Wen Qingyi, Wen Qingyi, hey, luck makes people, Lu Tanwei." ”
Lu Tanwei went all the way south from the capital, followed in the middle, went to visit the eldest prince, and only went down to Nazhou today. Now that the war on the frontier is tight, and it is winter, the whole thing is very solemn, and he is led by the magistrate to see Zhang Sengqiu's famous products, which is also the purpose of his trip.
Although Zhang Seng Miao and Lu Tanwei are both world-famous genius painters, their styles are very different. Lu Tanwei only paints landscapes, flowers and birds, the layout is harmonious and rigorous, and he pays attention to the whole "spirit"; However, Zhang Seng Miao is a real representative of the secular school, and most of his paintings are lay life, sacrificial ceremonies, fairies and ghosts.
The one that Lu Tanwei is going to see today is the "fragrant beauty" painted by Zhang Seng when he went to the "Yixiang Courtyard" many years ago.
Lu Tanwei listened to the "magistrate" all the way to Zhang Sengqiu's "romantic past", and looked at the girls with different expressions and beautiful postures in his pen, and he was in a trance for a while.
He always felt that these people were beautiful, but they didn't see any aura, and they looked at each other, and their positions were all marked, but the different movements were replaced by one of the faces, and it seemed that there was nothing to do. If you say that you can't be coquettish if you are introverted, and you can't be dignified with affection, it seems that there is some truth. But even so, in Lu Tanwei's eyes, they can only be regarded as a few types drawn out in the specimens, and a type often only needs a representative at the beginning, when the inherent impression is settled, no matter how many others jump, they can't come up with many new tricks. What's more, since ancient times, there are only a few types, and people's tastes should be sweet and spicy.
It's better to, somehow, on the empty couch in Zhang Seng's painting, Lu Tanwei consciously installed "Wen Qingji", the scene he peeked at that day, all came back in an instant, Wen Qingyi's legs were covered with a small book, the whole person exhaled evenly, and the hair was only gently relaxed at that moment, never disturbing her short sleep. The white and tender face flashed, and the whole person warmed, connecting his heart. Wen Qingyi's little couch sits firmly, she is beautiful, she is angry and smart, she is not graceful, and she will not lead people to do evil, but a person like her, as long as she looks at it, she will remember it clearly.
Lu Tan smiled bitterly, feeling that he was hopeless.
It just so happened that the magistrate said about Zhang Sengqiu's deceased wife: "Mr. Zhang's wife died early, but she was a virtuous lady." When the old gentleman met her, he fell in love at first sight, and immediately proposed marriage, and after a year of marriage, he fell in love with the second lady of the Zhao family in the county seat, and the lady didn't say a word, so she helped him carry him into the house. The second lady of the Zhao family has a unique singing voice, known from far and near, and sang the song to the old gentleman month after month, and the lady was very happy when she listened to it. Later......"
Lu Tanwei interrupted him and asked, "Didn't he fall in love with his wife at first sight, how did he fall in love with the daughter of the Zhao family?" ”
The magistrate saw that Lu Tanwei had not spoken, and thought that he was not satisfied, or that he didn't want to listen at all. He remembered the name of "North Tanwei, South Monk", his eyes turned around, and he smiled sloppily: "You are a fairy and a wonderful person, and it is normal that you don't understand this little love." Like us mortals, we start to love someone, and then we meet someone more satisfied, so we naturally love the next one. ”
Lu Tanwei said: "Your heart was made of meat at the beginning, how did you change it to other ingredients later?" ”
The magistrate was confused when he heard this, but he didn't dare to reply in confusion, so he had to say: "My lord, my heart is naturally full of meat, but this, some people love to eat pigs, some people love to eat cows, and some people love to eat pigs for a while, chickens for a while, and cows for a while, which is also difficult to say." ”
Lu Tanwei continued to look at the painting, and his voice was cold: "What you mean is that people don't first like the robustness of cows, the good raising of pigs, and the morning crowing of chickens, but act entirely on the desires of their mouths and stomachs." ”
The magistrate was confused, but nodded hurriedly, and replied again and again: "That's it, eh, that's it." ”
Lu Tanwei stopped talking, and stood for a long time in front of Zhang Sengqiu's empty couch. Then, he asked the magistrate to look for the kind of young girl who was full of poetry and books, loved pastoral landscapes, did not pretentious, and did not follow the national etiquette code.
As soon as the magistrate heard the rich and golden "capital", the whole person was about to float, and remembered Lu Tanwei's request, and felt that his mouth was inexplicably bitter, "What kind of woman is this, who the hell has seen it, Ren recruited all the beauties, pick them up and play with him, there is always a suitable one", he reluctantly agreed, and at the same time praised Haikou, before dark, he must be sent to the house where Lu Tanwei temporarily lives.
Lu Tanwei didn't have a superfluous expression, just told him: "You'd better find it." ”
The magistrate looked up at Lu Tanwei, who was thin, and suddenly released a terrifying momentum, different from the inviolable high-mindedness at the beginning, the current Lu Tanwei is more like the "Judge Luo" who is rumored in the court, and he can breathe out the soul of the prisoner at a glance.
The magistrate searched and arrested all kinds of beauties non-stop, and he himself paced repeatedly in front of the hall, tortured people's knowledge, whipped people's families, and wanted to "be bold, don't be small", and the panicked yamen people sent out, and the daughters who cried wolf and couldn't hide their joyful faces gathered.
In the end, the magistrate picked out the five young girls who were the most pleasing to Lu Tanwei's heart. Just as he was about to take them there, a woman in yellow who was kneeling stood up and said to the magistrate, "If you take them there, the best result will be that they will be sent out, and at worst, you and them will die." ”
When the magistrate heard this, he jumped to his feet in anger, and hurried over, intending to kick this lifeless wild orphan girl to death himself.
When he walked in front of him, although the woman in yellow was so frightened that her hands couldn't help shaking, her eyes were very round with pride, and the magistrate remembered that she had just reported that this girl had heard that they were arresting people, and she was sitting in the middle of the road, waiting for the captivity, and he suddenly remembered Lu Tanwei's little request, and suddenly felt that this was the person he was looking for.
