But in the end, they still got into a car, and they were not alone, and there was Xiao Tao here, so there wouldn't be so many people who loved to chew the root of their tongues.

Chen Siye also took Le Xuan's car for the first time, and sure enough, the county lord's car was very luxurious, the big one could lie down, and it was covered with the fur of an unknown animal.

Xiao Tao and Le Xuan sat on one side, he sat on the other side, the three of them were in the same car, and Chen Siye didn't know what to say for a while.

After a long time, Le Xuan broke the silence and said: "I didn't expect Xiao Yezi that you are quite energetic after putting on your official uniform, and you have a refreshing feeling." ”

Chen Siye couldn't help but slander himself, he wouldn't be energetic if he didn't wear an official uniform?

"Sister Le Xuan is also beautiful today, I was almost stunned when I first met my sister."

Because she wants to enter the palace, Le Xuan is also dressed more formally, today she is wearing a pink and white palace dress, light makeup, and a flower on her forehead, with her picturesque eyebrows and eyes, like a fairy who has fallen into the dust.

Le Xuan smiled slightly: "Poor mouth." ”

Chen Siye naturally didn't forget the little peach on the side, and praised again: "Xiao Tao's dress today is also pleasing to the eye, and I don't know where to put my eyes when I sit in the same car with you." ”

Although Xiao Tao is just wearing a goose yellow maid dress, this color matches her very well, and with her delicate facial features, there is a very smart feeling.

Xiao Tao pouted when she heard this: "That is, the young lady has a good temper, otherwise a disciple like you who only knows how to look at it will have his eyes gouged out a long time ago." ”

Chen Siye, who was choked on a word, was embarrassed, so he had to say angrily: "Even if you gouge out your eyes, you won't regret it." ”

The two women chuckled when they heard this.

After a short time, he arrived outside the Anding Gate of the Imperial City, and when he entered the Imperial City, Chen Siye saw from the car window that the palace maids and eunuchs and officials who came in and out of the outside had to verify their identities one by one before they could enter and leave the Imperial City.

However, the guards didn't even look at the car they were sitting in, so they directly respectfully let them go, and Chen Siye couldn't help but sigh that Le Xuan's treatment was really high.

Entering the Anding Gate, it is regarded as entering the palace, and the palace gate is only separated from this Anding Gate by a square.

When entering the palace, they could only walk, and they could no longer take the carriage, so when they were about to reach the palace gate, the three of them got off the bus in turn.

There are not too many people in front of this palace gate at this time, just some palace maids and eunuchs who go out to do business, Le Xuan's name is known to everyone, and those palace maids and eunuchs who pass by have stepped forward to bow and salute.

However, seeing a man get out of the carriage of the county lord of Pingle, these palace maids and eunuchs were also amazed, and they didn't know who he was.

Le Xuan and Xiao Tao were in front, while Chen Siye followed behind a few steps behind, and as soon as he walked to the palace gate, he saw Xiao Anzi waiting there.

Seeing the three of them, Xiao Anzi bowed forward and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the County Lord, Chen Zhizhao, Xiao Anzi is polite." ”

Le Xuan waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, where is Uncle Huang now?" ”

Xiao Anzi replied: "Your Majesty is receiving the envoys of the Wu Kingdom in the Hanguang Palace, and Your Majesty expected that His Royal Highness the County Lord and Chen Zhizhao should also arrive, so he ordered Xiao Anzi to come to greet him, and asked His Royal Highness the County Lord and Chen Zhizhao to go to the imperial study to rest for a while. ”

Hearing this, Chen Siye couldn't help but wonder, the two countries were hostile, and the Wu State also sent envoys to congratulate him on his birthday?

Le Xuan seemed to have known for a long time, and nodded without surprise at all: "Then let's take us with Father-in-law An." ”

With Xiao Anzi and Le Xuan here, although the guards in front of the palace felt that Chen Siye was faceless, but

I just asked and let go.

The size of the palace was beyond Chen Siye's expectations, he had never been to the Forbidden City in his previous life, so this was also the first time he entered the palace, and he couldn't help but be very novel, looking left and right, like a hillbilly.

After passing through countless arches and corridors, it took more than a quarter of an hour to go around, and Chen Siye was a little tired of seeing the red bricks and green tiles, so he arrived at the imperial study.

Because the emperor was still seeing the envoys of Wuguo, Le Xuan and Chen Siye sat in the imperial study and waited for the emperor to come over, and the palace maid served tea, Xiao Tao did not sit down because of the status of a maid, and Xiao Anzi went to return to the emperor.

There are many calligraphy and paintings in this imperial study, but Chen Siye is not interested, and sits quietly drinking tea and waiting for the emperor to come.

I didn't have to wait long before I heard a shout from outside: "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

Chen Siye hurriedly got up and stood aside, and Le Xuan also got up to greet him.

Emperor Ji, who had just met the envoys, did not change his clothes, and entered the imperial study in a dragon robe, which was unspeakably expensive.

"Chen Hanlin is waiting for Chen Siye, see Your Majesty." As soon as he saw Emperor Ji, he had to kneel and bow, so that Chen Siye couldn't help but feel a little tired, and the little peach and the palace maid behind him also knelt down one after another.

Only Le Xuan just gave a blessing and said, "Xuan'er has seen Uncle Huang." ”

Fortunately, Emperor Ji was in a good mood and waved his hand: "You don't have to be polite." This made Chen Siye breathe a sigh of relief, and he got up with just his knees touching the ground.

Emperor Ji smiled and pointed to the chair and said, "Xuan'er and Chen Qing should sit down, rest for a while, and then talk about it after I have breakfast." ”

Chen Siye was not polite, and when he answered yes, he sat back on the chair and looked at his nose and nose and didn't say much.

Le Xuan also sat down and said: "Uncle Huang is working state affairs, and he has every opportunity, but he hasn't had breakfast yet, it's really hard and abnormal." ”

Hearing this, Chen Siye couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: Li Wanji is really miserable, I don't know how many people have passed.

I only heard Emperor Ji sigh and said: "If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government, or Xuan'er understands me." ”

At this time, Gong E offered dim sum and a bowl of porridge, and Emperor Ji pointed to the dim sum and porridge and said, "Have Xuan'er and Chen Qing eaten?" Why don't you eat some more? ”

Looking at those small snacks and a small bowl of porridge, Chen Siye couldn't help but secretly say Who can eat just such a little? I don't dare to say anything.

Le Xuan also said: "Uncle Xie Huang, we have had breakfast in the mansion. ”

Emperor Ji just gave in, didn't say anything more, and began to eat his breakfast.

Although he is the emperor, he also chirps when he eats, as if it is very fragrant, so he listened to Emperor Ji for a quarter of an hour, he finally finished eating, and the waiter standing on the side handed him a bright yellow handkerchief, Emperor Ji took it and wiped his mouth, and then said: "Just now I told the prince and master of the Wuguo Kingdom that I have two unrenownedly famous saints in the painting, and he still doesn't believe it, saying that the painting saint is in the martial country today, it really makes me angry, Xuan'er and Chen Qing have to paint me well today, and they will definitely open his eyes when the birthday banquet comes!" ”

"Uncle Huang, rest assured, Xuan'er will go all out."

"Wechen should do his best. Your Majesty is at ease, and the ministers and His Royal Highness the county lord work together to paint, even if the painting is the holy relatives, they can only admire! ”

Chen Siye was not modest at all, and swore right away.

Emperor Ji immediately laughed when he heard this, and praised: "Chen Qing said it well! We'll see. Come on, prepare a few cases. ”

After a while, a chamberlain brought up a desk and spread another one on it

Good tribute paper, but also prepared pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

It was already discussed yesterday, Chen Siye painted first, and then Le Xuan added color modification, so Chen Siye didn't need this ink inkstone, he had his own special ink pen, and he cut this ink pen last night, and he could use it when he took it out.

Emperor Ji saw that he didn't recognize the ink pen he took out, and asked very strangely, "What is Chen Qing holding in his hand?" ”

"Your Majesty, what Wei Chen holds in his hand is a special ink pen specially made for the minister by His Royal Highness the county lord, and Wei Chen must use this ink pen to paint."

After using it for so long, half of this ink pen has been used, and it is time for Le Xuan to make a few for him and prepare for it.

Emperor Ji asked Xiao Anzi to take his ink pen, and after taking a closer look, he said, "It's really a rare thing." ”

As he spoke, he asked Xiao Anzi to return the pen, and by the way, he withdrew the pen and inkstone.

"What kind of sitting posture does Chen Qing think I should have?"

"Your Majesty is comfortable and how to sit, but I don't know if Your Majesty wants to stand or sit in this painting?"

"Do you need to stand all the time?"

"No, no, Your Majesty just needs to sit." After all, he is the king of a country, and it is really too much for people to stand, with Chen Siye's current level, he can draw it well just by imagination.

Emperor Ji was very surprised, "Then draw a standing posture." ”

Chen Siye said confidently: "If Your Majesty is bored, you can also read books and the like, and you don't need to worry about affecting Weichen's painting." ”

Saying that, he lifted the paintbrush and said: "Please also ask Your Majesty to forgive the sin of disrespect, Yunchen looked directly at Long Yan." ”

As soon as he heard this, everyone in the hall couldn't help but laugh, and Emperor Ji also laughed and said: "You really talk a lot of nonsense, allow!" Hurry up and draw. ”

Seeing that the emperor was a little impatient, Chen Siye stopped talking nonsense, first sketched the general outline of Emperor Ji on the paper, and then began to draw meticulously from top to bottom.

Ji Di could still sit still, but after a while, he couldn't bear it anymore, and asked Xiao Anzi to take two books and come over to read them. Le Xuan also stood up and walked behind Chen Siye to watch him paint.

This time, Chen Siye took out all his skills, he was as meticulous as he could, kept improving, and even his hair was delicate, which made Le Xuan behind him marvel in his heart.

And because Emperor Ji's dragon robe is very complicated, the progress is very slow, and it has been painted for nearly two hours, and it has not been finished yet.

At noon, Emperor Ji stopped, asked Le Xuan and Chen Siye to accompany him for lunch, talked for a while, and continued to paint at the end of noon.

Before continuing the painting in the afternoon, Emperor Ji first looked at how he painted, and saw that it was almost finished, only the dragon pattern on the clothes had not yet been painted, although it had not yet been painted, but it could still be seen that he was a little younger in this painting, with his hands behind his back, his eyes were like electricity, and he looked in all directions, drawing his ninety-five supreme majesty to the fullest.

Emperor Ji was extremely satisfied, and couldn't help but praise loudly: "Good! Chen Qing's painting is deeply meaningful, in my opinion, the so-called painting saint is not as good as Chen Qing! ”

was praised by Emperor Ji, Chen Siye was also very proud, and said in his heart that it was not in vain that I had put in such a big effort.

Then, Emperor Ji sat back on the chair, and Chen Siye continued to paint.

Before he could draw for a while, he saw that Emperor Ji seemed to be tired, yawning constantly, and after a while, he seemed to be unable to hold on, so he said: "Chen Qing, I am really sleepy, you draw first, and I will go and take a nap." ”

Chen Siye hurriedly nodded yes, this painting has reached the finishing touch, even if you don't look at it, you can paint it.
