Chapter 181: Lu Zijin's Painting
Chi Tang looked down at himself.
Her body today was personally chosen by her father.
"Donggong has already come forward, so let Li Shu clearly see who your backer is." My father said.
Chi Tang pondered for a moment and repeated it in his own words: "My father said that it is safer to wear it like this to Liang Wangfu. β
Xue Zheng was surprised for a moment and said, "Safety is safety, do you guess what others will think when they see it?" β
"What do you think?" Chi Tang was puzzled.
Xue Zheng stroked his forehead and said: "You almost wrote the words 'East Palace Exclusive' on your face today, is this about to start competing for favor before you marry into the East Palace?" β
Chi Tang blushed and denied it vigorously: "I'm not!" I didn't! Don't talk nonsense! β
Xue Zheng smiled: "I see that the prince's cousin also likes you very much, you let your father go to my father to beg for it, and now the position of the prince's concubine has not been decided, you still have a chance!" β
Chi Tang's face turned even redder: "I didn't mean that!" Neither did my dad! β
Xue Zheng sneered: "Didn't you dress up like this? It's not to be a woman in the East Palace, is it possible to be the daughter of the East Palace? β
Chi Tang glanced at her faintly.
Xue Zheng was so startled that he staggered, and after being held steady, he wanted to ask again, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help laughing.
The laughter alarmed a passer-by not far away, who stopped and turned his head to look, and when he saw Chitang, he was stunned.
"This way, pleaseβ" reminded the squire who led the way.
"I'm tired." The passer-by said softly and glanced at Chi Tang again.
But at this moment the girl looked over as if she had noticed something, and when she saw him, her eyes widened in shock.
It seems to have grown up a little, but the temperament doesn't seem to have changed.
He smiled slightly, saluted Chi Tang from afar, and left with the attendant.
Chi Tang was stunned in place for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.
It turned out that the acquaintance that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said he saw next to King Liang that day turned out to be him......
β¦β¦
After toasting for the third time, Li Yan got up and temporarily withdrew.
But after a while, Chi Changting followed.
"There is a problem with the triage of the three divisions again?" Chi Changting asked.
"Nope." Li Yan replied, "Yao Wuji has confessed. β
This surprised Chi Changting even more than the problem of the trial: "It's so easy to recruit?" β
After all, it is a rebellion, even if it is arrested, it will be very laborious to try it, especially with Yao's prestige in Jiangnan, as long as Yao Wuji does not let go, it will be difficult to sentence, and they have long been ready to start with Yao Wuji's children.
Why did Yao Wuji confess so cooperatively?
"I got a personal ID." Li Yan replied.
Chi Changting glanced at him.
Li Yan made a gesture, secretly the wind moved, and the branches and leaves fluttered.
Chi Changting couldn't help but look solemn, this is to let the secret guards be under martial law, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really not playing this trip.
"There's something I want to ask Chi Qing." Li Yan said in a low voice.
Chi Changting didn't agree immediately, but just said, "Your Highness, please speak." β
"When I raided Wuxing's mansion before, I found a batch of Mr. Lu's calligraphy and paintings in Yao Wuji's studyββ"
Chi Changting was slightly startled.
The Lu clan is the only one who can be called Mr. by His Royal Highness the Prince.
"In order to avoid complications, those calligraphy and paintings were burned by Gu and Wenli himself."
Lu Zijin's calligraphy and painting are unique, and it is not surprising that Yao Wuji has a collection, which cannot prove that Lu and Yao have colluded.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince secretly burned it first, and now he specially mentioned it, presumably there are some strange things in those paintings and calligraphy.
Chi Changting looked at him thoughtfully and asked, "The person His Highness just said is Mr. Lu?" β
Li Yan nodded: "In the past in Wujiang, Mr. Lu mentioned the origin with the Yao family, and Mr. also had some evidence of Yao's crimes in his hands, so Gu specially asked Mr. to come to court to testify against Yao's disobedience." β
Chi Changting couldn't help but look sideways: "Your Highness's hand is quite black, so you are not afraid that Yao Wuji will break the net and pull the Lu family into the water?" β
Although His Royal Highness the Prince's wording is very vague, it is not difficult to guess that the relationship between Yao Wuji and Lu Zijin is not simple, and it may also involve the love between men and women.
Thinking about the fact that Wu County and Wuxing County are only half a day's drive away, the Yao family and the Lu family are both wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River, in the early years, Yao Wuji visited the Lu family many times, and he must have seen Lu Zijin.
Lu Zijin had the reputation of "the first talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River" in the old days, and admirers were like carp crossing the river, and it was not uncommon to have one more Yao Wuji.
But where love goes, some people die unswervingly, and some people hate because of love, fortunately, Yao Wuji is the former, otherwise it will be self-defeating and troublesome.
"This is also what Mr. Lu meant-" Li Yan said, "Mr. came forward to prove Lu's innocence, although those calligraphy and paintings were burned by his own hands, he couldn't help but beware of missing something." β
Chi Changting smiled "hehe" and said, "Sure enough, it is a famous teacher and a high apprentice." β
This master and apprentice both look upright, and one is more black-hearted than the other!
Chi Changting admits that he has done a lot of things that are not so upright, but he has never taken advantage of the relationship between men and women, this Mr. Lu is ruthless, and he calculates Yao Wuji clearly.
He shook his head with a smile and asked, "So, what does His Highness want the minister to do?" β
Li Yan ignored his sarcasm, only stood with his hands in his hands, and said lightly: "We are right to be wary, Yao Wuji's collection of calligraphy and paintings is indeed missing a volume!" β
Chi Changting smiled suddenly: "Which volume is missing?" β
β¦β¦
The scroll unfolds slowly, and on the slightly yellowed silk cloth, the fine brushwork is delicate and delicate, and each stroke is full of thought.
"This painting...... Is it really from King Wu Xing's study? The purple-shirted man asked incredulously.
The man in white stretched the scroll to the end, and his slender and graceful fingers tapped the tail of the scroll: "There is an inscription and seal written by King Wuxing as evidence." β
The man in the purple shirt looked at the inscription and said with a smile: "I didn't expect King Wu Xing to still be a lover." β
The man in white smiled silently.
The purple-shirted man thought for a while, shook his head again, and said, "What can such a painting show?" They can be said to be wishful thinking on the part of King Wu Xing, and Lu Zijin has no idea, even if they are separated from the Lu family and the Zheng family, they are a little bit worse! β
The man in white lowered his eyes and carefully rolled up the scroll, and his voice was soft and soft: "A painting can't say anything, but we still have witnesses-"
"Your Highness, rest assured, this time not only Lu Zijin is in a catastrophe, but even Chi Changting can't be left alone!"
β¦β¦
When Chi Tang found the study, Chi Changting was writing on the desk, concentrating, and he didn't even raise his head.
But he still knew that Chi Tang was coming, so he greeted him loudly.
"Is Daddy busy? Then I'll come back later. Chitang said.
Although she has something, it is not an important thing.
"It's okayβ" Chi Changting said, "You say, Daddy listens." β
Chi Tang stood on tiptoe and looked at it, and found that the paper was multi-colored, and the pen was moving slowly-
I was painting!
Chi Tang walked over with confidence.
"Daddy, I saw it last nightβ" The words stopped abruptly, and Chi Tang looked at his painting in amazement.
