Chapter 473: I'll Tell You a Story
After returning to the Hou Mansion, Ye Yu asked the housekeeper to prepare a place for Wanyan Changle's master and servant, and arranged for guards to be closely guarded.
With Ye Yu's current title, he can openly have his own guards, which is the only special case except for the prince.
Since he met this princess of the Jin Kingdom today, it is necessary to keep this news tightly sealed, at least Wanyan Changle must not be allowed to enter and leave Fuzhou at will.
After arranging the master and servant, Ye Yu was a little tired and ready to go back to the room to rest, but when he passed by the study, he found that the light in the room was still on.
Ye Yu thought that Qiulan was tidying up the study, because Qiulan had always been in charge of tidying up his study, which was a habit and a trust.
But when he walked straight into the study, he found that it was not Qiulan who was tidying up the study, but Zhang Qiuyu, who was known by everyone today as a female ghost.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Zhang Qiuyu raised his head and turned to look at the door, seeing Ye Yu staring at him, Zhang Qiuyu hurriedly picked up the rag and retreated to the side, bowing his head very cautiously: "Master Hou......"
Ye Yu just hummed softly, and then looked Zhang Qiuyu up and down.
Zhang Qiuyu, who had been dressed up, was dressed in a simple and decent green water skirt, and her snow-white long hair was wrapped in a headscarf behind her head. Although his face is still very fair, his eyelashes and eyebrows have been retouched.
Ye Yu, who was going to bed, was not sleepy at the moment, but sat down leisurely.
Zhang Qiuyu hurriedly approached to serve and poured a cup of tea for Ye Yu.
"Why did I see the girl's beauty in the old mansion of the Zhang family, and the green silk was not completely white, could it be that you made it that day and night?"
Ye Yu has been circling between several women for most of the day, especially Wanyan Changle's slap, which made Ye Yu vomit blood and saliva all the way, which made him feel even more thirsty, so he drank it all when he picked up the teacup.
"On that day, the slave maid was using osmanthus juice to grind ink, dyeing these three thousand troubles ......"
"Oh? No wonder I faintly smelled a faint fragrance of osmanthus at the beginning! After listening to Zhang Qiuyu's answer, Ye Yu suddenly realized.
Later, I saw Zhang Qiuyu biting her lower lip lightly, as if she was hesitating, so she put down the teacup and asked softly, "Do you have any doubts to ask?" β
Zhang Qiuyu replied softly: "The slave maid has two doubts, and I ask the Hou Ye to solve the doubts......
Ye Yu nodded encouragingly: "Let's hear it!" β
"How did Master Hou conclude that the slaves and maids in the house are not ghosts, but people?"
"Didn't I already do it before?"
"Spoke?" Zhang Qiuyu lowered his head and pondered, recalling every word Ye Yu had said before.
Seeing that Zhang Qiuyu was still puzzled, Ye Yu immediately smiled: "Ghost, is there a girl so beautiful and moving?" β
"Uh......"
Zhang Qiuyu lowered his head to hide his shame, a word of praise is worth countless words, and this sentence alone eases the strange atmosphere of each other.
"Hehe, in fact, it's nothing, you must think that the disappearance of the woman from the paper in the painting is an extremely strange thing, and it must have deceived a lot of people, right?"
"Exactly, Master Hou is really talented, and he has already seen the mystery in the painting!"
Ye Yu waved his hand, and then laughed noncommittally: "Why don't you tell you a story?" β
"Slaves and maids listen to you!"
"There was once a prince who was very fond of collecting famous paintings, and once he was passing through the town and encountered heavy rain, so he took refuge in an antique shop. During the shelter from the rain, Wang Gongzi found this danqing hanging in the shop. On this danqing, a scholar walks in a storm with an umbrella in his hand......"
"It's not a delicate painting, it's not a celebrity, but it's not cheap. At that time, Wang Gongzi shook his head, thinking that the shopkeeper of this antique shop pΓΉ was a layman, and regarded a cheap danqing as a famous painting! β
"At that time, the shopkeeper of this shop saw this, so he came to the front and pointed to the painting and said, don't look down on this painting, although this painting is not a celebrity, it is a complete treasure!"
"What a baby!" While Ye Yu was giving a story, Qiulan walked in from outside the door.
Qiulan's appearance made the speech feeling created by Ye Yu disappear in an instant, so she glanced at it angrily: "You girl still hasn't changed her temperament, and their accommodation is ready?" β
"Of course it's all set up, young master, who are they?"
"Uh...... Woman! β
"Young master, of course I know it's a woman......"
"Difficult woman!"
"Humph! Master, you deliberately ......"
Ye Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Since you know that it was deliberate, then you still can't listen to the story?" β
"Yes, yes, young master, tell me quickly, what kind of treasure is that painting in the story?"
Seeing that Qiulan was so eager, Ye Yu no longer sold Guanzi, but continued to tell the story.
In the study, the second daughter listened to Ye Yu tell the story, Qiulan sent out one or two urging words from time to time, and Zhang Qiuyu listened in silence, as if she had guessed the mystery of the story.
"When Wang Gongzi heard that the shopkeeper said that this ordinary Danqing was a treasure, he was both surprised and questioned, so he asked about the mystery in the painting......
The shopkeeper pointed to the pouring rain outside unhurriedly, and then said with a smile, "Childe, look at the heavy rain outside, this painting is naturally pouring rain!" Therefore, this painting will change different scenery with the change of the surrounding climate, and has the ability to predict the climate......
When Wang Gongzi heard this, he was immediately amazed, a painting can predict the change of weather, if this is the case, it is really a rare treasure. At that time, Wang Gongzi was surprised and asked the shopkeeper to show the special features of Danqing.
The shopkeeper is not in a hurry, claiming that the heavy rain in summer comes and goes in a hurry, so it is better to sit for a while, drink tea and wait, and wait until the heavy rain stops to verify the beauty of this danqing!
At that time, this prince felt that it was very reasonable, and besides, he was hiding from the rain in the shop, and he couldn't leave for a while, so he drank tea in the shop pΓΉ and waited. As the shopkeeper said, the heavy rain after drinking a pot of tea stopped......
And when Wang Gongzi looked at the painting again, he found that the scene in the painting had really changed. It's still the same road, and it's still the same scholar, but the scholar put away the umbrella, put it in the umbrella bag and continue walking!
The environment is also from the pouring rain, and it has become a beautiful scenery like the slanting sun after the rain......
At this point in the story, Ye Yu deliberately paused, and Qiu Lan asked very curiously: "Young Master, why is this painting so magical?" Is it really possible to change the landscape in a painting with the climate? β
"Magical? Hahaha! Ye Yu saw that Qiulan took the story seriously, and then laughed heartily.
"Isn't it?"
Ye Yu did not respond directly to Qiulan, but glanced at Zhang Qiuyu, and then asked meaningfully: "Miss Zhang thinks, this Danqing God is not magical?" β
