Chapter 109: In the Face of the Truth

"Ah...... It's nothing, it's not very pretty. This is a very ordinary landscape map, I saw it when I was passing by on the street, so I brought it back. When Changsun Hong heard this, his whole body suddenly became a little stiff, and a trace of nervousness appeared in his expression, and even his voice trembled subconsciously. His gaze wandered for a moment, and he thought to himself why he was rushing over to find Nanyu in a hurry.

"Since it's just a landscape map, or your eldest grandson bought it for the first time, then how can I not look good?" Of course, Yu Ran saw Changsun Hong's nervousness, and also knew that the reason why Changsun Hong was nervous at this moment was probably from this painting in his hand.

Yu Ran felt very strange to herself, if it was her before, when she encountered this embarrassing scene, she felt that she would definitely retreat and not mention it. But this time, she seemed to be unable to control her aggressiveness, as if there was another self in her mind who wanted her to say this.

"Brother, since Nan Yu wants to see it so much, you let her take a look, didn't you also come to see Nan Yu?" The eldest grandson Wanran was unaware of this tense atmosphere, and only persuaded the eldest grandson Hong for Yuran.

Changsun Hong looked at the two of them quietly for a while, and finally sighed, and then pretended to be helpless and said: "Okay, okay, just show you, Nanyu, what do you say are you anxious about?" His tone sounded casual.

The next moment, under the gaze of Yuran and Eldest Sun Wanran, Eldest Sun Hong's heart was horizontal, and finally his right hand shook and the scroll was unfolded.

There is only a person drawn on the scroll, although the painting is simple, and even a few places are not very good, but the outline of the appearance is clear, and it is possible to identify who it is.

It's just that the appearance of the person in the painting is very familiar, and the most familiar one is probably none other than Yuran.

Because, the person on the painting is obviously the jade dyeing himself.

Yuran's gaze stayed on the scroll for a long time, and when she looked at the painting, she felt that the appearance of the woman in the painting was really similar to her, which made her stunned for a while.

"It's ...... Nanyu? The eldest grandson asked in surprise.

Changsun Hong paused when he saw Yu Ran stunned, and after Changsun Wanran asked, Changsun Hong immediately reacted. His expression suddenly changed to embarrassment, and then he said in a helpless and reproachful tone: "Yes, it's Nanyu." ”

"Why me, where did you get this painting?" Yu Ran raised his eyes slightly, and asked out loud after a moment.

Changsun Hong was asked by Yuran, and saw Changsun Wanran's equally curious expression, he was stunned for a while, he raised his left hand and scratched his cheek, and then said curtly: "Actually...... Here's what I painted. ”

"My brother drew it?" The eldest grandson looked surprised.

"Did you really draw it?" Yuran asked him.

Changsun Hong nodded undoubtedly and said, "Of course it's me, it's ...... Even if you see that I can't draw well, it's equivalent to practicing strokes. You say, why am I embarrassed to show this to Nanyu? ”

Yuran's eyes fell on Changsun Hong's face, and she didn't move away for a long time, she noticed the unnaturalness of Changsun Hong's speech, and she felt a little wrong in her heart. She stared at Changsun Hong's eyes, and finally calmed down the strangeness in her heart, and asked rhetorically, "You take me to practice writing?" ”

"Ah, Nanyu, listen to me, I didn't mean it. I originally wanted to give it a try, and if I drew it well, I could surprise you with Nanyu, but I didn't expect it to be like this. I promise, in my impression, Nanyu is good-looking, really. Eldest Sun Hong waved his hand again and again and hurriedly explained.

"Nanyu, don't be angry with your brother. Although my brother's painting is simple, he still paints Nanyu's appearance very clearly. Generally, if you are just starting to learn to draw, there are few brothers who can draw so well. The eldest grandson Wanran thought that Yu Ran was going to be angry, so he wanted to say a few words for the eldest grandson.

The eldest grandson Wanran didn't say anything, but also said, as soon as this last sentence was explained, even the eldest grandson Hong was stunned from the bottom of his heart, and he secretly felt that it was not good.

Changsun Hong felt bitter in his heart, where would he paint anything, besides, this painting looks like he has some skills, even if he practices the brush, he can't paint like this, right? Originally, he planned to fool the past, but he didn't expect his sister to explain it to him.

Sure enough, the next moment, Changsun Hong heard the woman laugh softly, which made him feel shocked and shocked.

"Yes, I can draw so well at the beginning of learning, it seems that Shizi is really powerful." Yu Ran said with a slight smile.

"What is this......" Eldest Sun Honggang was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Yu Ran.

Yu Ran didn't wait for the eldest grandson Hong to speak, then changed his words and continued: "However, since this painting was specially prepared for me by the eldest grandson, how can I be embarrassed not to accept it?" Even if it's a little simpler, it's a thought, don't you say, Shizi? ”

Changsun Hong really didn't expect that Yuran, who had always been easy to talk in the past, didn't want to let him go this time, but if he gave the painting to Yuran, what would the result be...... Changsun Hong can't eat it now.

After all, Changsun Hong's heart is really messed up and messed up now.

When Changsun Hong came back from the barracks today, the first thing he did was to go to his father to reason with him, and he really didn't feel that he had to stay in the barracks at such a critical juncture.

When he walked to the door of his father's room, the first person he saw was another person, that person was his father's deputy general Xue Yan, the eldest grandson Hong still recognized, and this time he was sent to the barracks was also Xue Yan who his father got rid of.

"General Xue." Eldest Sun Hong walked over and saw Xue Yan walking back and forth outside the door.

Xue Yan turned around and saw that the person who came was Changsun Hong, so he clenched his fists and said, "His Royal Highness." ”

"General Xue, why do you have time to come to Xiangwangfu today? Are you here to find your father, is there something urgent to report? Changsun Hong asked curiously.

"Hui Shizi, it's like this, the man who went to spy on Helian Yu's camp and was seriously injured and fell into a coma finally woke up. Although he was in poor physical condition, at least he was conscious. We asked him if he remembered what had happened in the tent, and he said that he had indeed bumped into Helian Yu, and that it was Helian Yu who had injured them. So according to his impression, we also sent someone to paint this portrait of Helian Yu, and I just wanted to hand it over to the prince. ”

"Then why don't you go in?" The eldest grandson wanted to push the door.

"Lord Wang, he doesn't seem to be there, Xu is going out to run errands." Xue Yan reminded.

Hearing this, Eldest Sun Hong turned his head to look at Xue Yan, and slowly withdrew his hand again, "It's not here." ”

"Yes." Xue Yan nodded.

There was a moment of silence between the two, but Changsun Hong saw Xue Yan's embarrassment, so Changsun Hong smiled, and pointed to the scroll in Xue Yan's hand and said: "Otherwise, General Xue, it's not a way for you to continue to wait here, it is estimated that my father will not come back so soon." If you don't, give me this scroll first, and I'll give it to you later. ”

"This ...... Wouldn't it be too good? After Xue Yan listened, he asked with some hesitation.

Changsun Hong swore with a sworn face: "It's okay, it's okay, General Xue, you can rest assured, I'll give it to him when my father comes back, for sure." Shouldn't you have a lot of things to do? Let's go back to the barracks first. ”

Xue Yan finally did not resist Changsun Hong's extremely serious persuasion, and after hesitation, he handed the scroll into the hands of Changsun Hong. Xue Yan clasped his fists at the eldest grandson, "Then please leave it to His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince must transfer this scroll to the prince." ”

"Okay." Changsun Hong responded.

Eldest Sun Hong saw Xue Yan leave, and then looked down at the extremely well rolled picture scroll in his hand, and after a while, he raised the corners of his lips with the same eyebrows, and muttered to himself: "I want to see what that Helian Yu who has been rumored to be so unfathomable looks like." ”

After thinking about it, Changsun Hong pinched both sides of the scroll with both hands and opened the scroll with a bang.

If he could turn back time, if he knew who was painting in the scroll, then he would definitely not choose to ask for the painting from Xue Yan, let alone open the painting curiously to see what it was.

Because, when Changsun Hong set his eyes on the painting scroll, when he saw the appearance of the person on the painting clearly, he was stunned for a moment, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

How so?

It's impossible, right?

At that time, Changsun Hong's hand holding the scroll trembled.

"How could it be...... Nanyu? "The eldest grandson Hong saw the appearance of the woman in the painting clearly, although the technique of the person who painted the painting was not exquisite, but the outline of the woman was clearly drawn.

The person in the painting is none other than Jade Dye.

Both Changsun Hong and Changsun Wanran once said to Yuran that she is a good-looking person, and this kind of good-looking can be recognized at a glance.

And now, the eldest grandson Hong would rather Yuran's appearance not be so outstanding, he would rather Yuran just be a person who can be forgotten at a glance.

At this moment, Changsun Hong finally understood why Yuran's personality and preferences were so special, and why Yuran could always speak amazingly, but the only unconscious person was herself, and he also understood why Yuran could play the national song that only the nobles of King Ning's family could hear, and at the same time, he also understood why Qin Xi was thousands of miles away and risked his life to come to Anguo to find Yuran.

All this is just because the Nanyu that his eldest grandson Hong knows is not an ordinary noble daughter of Ningguo, but Helian Yu, the regent of Ningguo.

This incident, which was originally confusing in Changsun Hong's heart, seemed to be completely solved at the moment when he saw the person in this picture scroll, but Changsun Hong felt stunned instead.

The Nanyu he likes is Helian Yu?

This made Changsun Hong suddenly remember that when he was talking to Qin Xi once, he asked Qin Xi why he hadn't been with her for five years since he liked Nanyu. In fact, the eldest grandson Hong at that time had doubts about Qin Xi, but he really wanted to ask.
