Thousands of miles away, in the northernmost part of Sili Prefecture, in Lintao County, Longxi, in a huge mansion, an old man in brocade who was not angry and arrogant took the letter presented by the housekeeper Li Tao, slowly unfolded it, read it quietly, and then put the secret letter upside down on the table, and waved his hand without raising his head:

"Since the painter has finally drawn it today, let's bring it in, unfold it and take a look."

"Huh," Li Tao agreed, hurriedly dodged out, and soon led several family members, holding long poles, cautiously walked in, and hung a huge painting on the wall.

The old man in brocade is none other than Li Xuan, the current head of the Li family in Longxi.

After reading it, Li Xuan picked up the tea bowl with an expressionless face and took a sip slowly.

I looked at it again, then picked up an object on the table, looked at it, and snapped into a flame.

Looking at it again, he finally raised his eyebrows, and said with a blazing gaze:

"Xu Shao Xu Zijiang is there, have you rested today?"

"Go home," Li Tao hurriedly bowed his head and responded:

"Yesterday at noon, the third prince personally went out of the city to pick up the people, and he will rest overnight, and now he is in good spirits, and he even ran out of the city this morning to go around."

Li Xuan groaned for a moment, suddenly tapped the table, and glanced sideways at Sima Xuan, the master who was sitting on the side, who had always been like a shadow. Seeing that he nodded slightly, he got up and said:

"Please come over, just say that I just returned this morning, and now I am waiting outside the door in person."

Soon, a handsome scribe in green clothes, with a faint arrogance on his face, walked in through the courtyard gate of the third entrance.

Seeing Li Xuan waiting outside the study, he immediately stopped, looked at it, and then stood up without saying a word, just slightly sideways glanced at Li Jiang, the third son of the Li family, who was accompanying him.

"Father, one of the world's most famous Xu Guo, Xu Shaogong of Runan has arrived."

Li Jiang scolded secretly, but there was no displeasure on his face, and he gestured:

"Mr. Zijiang, this is Li Xuangong, the current head of my Li family in Longxi. Hearing that Mr. was coming, Li Gong hurried back from other places this morning. ”

Xu Shao nodded, as if he hated these red tape very much, and with a long stroke, he opened his mouth and said:

"I've seen Li Gong, I don't know who your mansion wants me to observe, where is it now?"

Is this the style of the world-famous celebrities?

Seeing this, Li Xuan frowned extremely covertly, and stopped making more false salutes at the moment, and said slightly apologeticly:

"I'm sorry Mr. Xu, for various reasons, he is still on his way here. But don't worry, sir, he will be there tonight at the latest, and tomorrow morning sir will be able to take a look. ”

Xu Shao was stunned, and immediately arched his hand unhappily:

"That's it, wait for the summons in the next time."

Li Jiang hurriedly took a step forward and stopped with a smile on his face:

"Mr. General, please stay, the person has not arrived, but the painting has arrived. Mr. Jiang Suwen does not see his person, but he sees his portrait, and he can also see people in the same way, and only Mr. Jiang Suwen can make ears in the world. It's the time for us today, so why not give us the pleasure of having a glimpse? ”

Xu Shao hesitated for a moment, and Li Jiang hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot:

"In addition to the portrait, there is another thing that is rare in the world, and I should also ask Mr. to take a look."

Oh, Xu Shao finally turned around, and his lips moved: "Then let's take a look." ”

When he came to the study and saw the portrait from a distance, Xu Shao was tight, and he obviously accelerated his pace, and he was the first to enter the study against the guest.

But this time, his rude behavior made everyone present look at each other happily.

When Li Xuan stepped into the door, Xu Shao immediately asked without looking back:

"Dare to ask Li Gong, what is the name of this son, who is the person, this portrait is his latest copy?"

Li Xuan pondered for a long time, and then twisted his beard and said:

"This son's surname is Liu Mingyu, and the word is on the cloud. claims to be a native of Langya County, Xuzhou, and the age on the portrait is his current age. ”

After Xu Shao listened, he suddenly fell into a long silence.

I don't know how long it took, he suddenly arched his hand and said:

"Gong Li, have you heard a few lines of poetry like this recently-outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green. The evening breeze blows the willow flute, and the sunset is outside the mountain? ”

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and then looked at his son and master, seeing that they shook their heads one after another, and were just about to speak, Xu Shao was respectful and deeply moved, and suddenly said unexpectedly:

"Gong Li, this time I won't take a penny. In addition, whenever this cloud comes, please notify me immediately. ”

What's going on?

As soon as Xu Shao left, looking at each other, Sima Xuan's eyes suddenly flashed, and he stared at Li Xuan and suddenly said:

"Ming Gong, I'm afraid that our previous plan was inappropriate, and it must be changed!"

Li Xuan also nodded again and again, and said quickly: "How to change, Bo Ming, but you already have an idea?" ”

Sima Xuan didn't say much, and immediately said bluntly:

"It's too late, Ming Gong. For the sake of today, the only way to do this is to make the fake come true. But don't worry, I have a plan to ensure that nothing goes wrong. It's really true, but the eldest lady in the eldest prince's mansion is only over thirteen years old, and if she wants to get out of the cabinet, it will take two years, to say the least. Two years, Ming Gong, this son is a dragon or a worm, enough enough! ”

Li Xuan's eyes flashed, he paced with his hands in his hands, and suddenly said:

"Good, good. Jiang'er, you quickly dispatch a fast horse messenger to tell the Li family in Xuzhou, telling them not to come back the same way, and the previous matter will be written off. Li Tao, you go to the eldest prince's mansion quickly and invite Li Xin and the eldest lady together. Wait a minute, you don't want to come back, go to the official road to meet the Li family in Liangzhou. ”

"Whew-"

As soon as the two left, Li Xuan immediately smiled and said:

"Bo Ming, the poems that Xu Shao read, now I still have my ears, and the more I reminisce, the more I am amazed. If this son really did it, the old man simply gave Wei'er to him! ”

Sima Xuan also smiled and said:

"Then congratulations to Ming Gong, there should be a lower rhyme after listening to this poem, and Ming Gong will hear it again, wouldn't he be overjoyed."

The master and servant talked and laughed, and after a while, the eldest son Li Xin took his eldest daughter Li Wei and hurriedly flashed in. However, he was just about to salute, but he was suddenly attracted by the portrait on the wall.

Immediately afterwards, Li Wei also looked up in surprise, and when he saw it, it was a heroic young man with high sword eyebrows and nose, standing in front of him like a real person, with a hint of indescribable smile, looking at her as if he were nothing. Unconsciously, his face turned red, and he hurriedly looked down at his toes.

Li Xuan saw it in his eyes, and his heart moved. stepped forward and gently took her little hand and shook it soothingly. Then he looked at Li Xi and asked quietly:

"Orange, how is this son?"

Li Xin naturally immediately thought of who was in the portrait, and knew that Xu Shao had just come. After thinking about it, he boldly said:

"If it is seen by an orange, it is righteous and awe-inspiring, but there is something in the eyes that makes people dare not look at each other."

As he spoke, he was suddenly startled, and hurriedly looked at Li Wei, and suddenly shouted with some bitterness, "Father-"

"You're smart, Orange."

Li Xuan said, pointing a finger to his lips.
