Chapter 44: Jinghua Dream Map
Lin Qiantan still remembers the tenacious eldest son Yin Huai.
Unlike his father, who was hardly interested in women, Yin Huai was a real hungry ghost.
Therefore, the hungry ghost in this color has long been "dying under the peony flower, and being a ghost is also romantic".
Yin Huai and Lin Ziye have a good relationship in their two lives, and in his previous life, Lin Qiantan first noticed such a person, because he went out with Lin Ziye, but Lin Ziye was the only one who went home.
At that time, there was a little trouble.
Perhaps it is also because of this relationship, yin tenacity is about equal to no successor, and he will train his nephew, which can be regarded as opening the Qingyun Road of official prosperity after Dong Yong.
Lin Qiantan closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, following these thoughts, and arrived at the Chu family unconsciously.
Unlike before, this time the steward at the door did not dare to ignore it, and even prepared diligently, Lin Qiantan went all the way to the birthday table prepared for her by her uncle and cousin.
said that it was a birthday, but in fact, it was just a simple meal for the family, and it was not extravagant. Except for the eldest cousin Chu Pei, who was a female official in the palace, and even her aunt Jiang Ningniang was sitting there.
The birthday star is the biggest, and the atmosphere at the dinner table is harmonious, and even Jiang Ningniang is rare not to show her face with Lin Qiantan. After eating, Chu gradually and his wife left, leaving the space for the young man.
The people brought by Lin Qiantan naturally scattered around in the name of coming back to the Chu family to visit relatives and friends, and Lin Qiantan and Chu Jiang's brother and sister got rid of the slaves and maids who were waiting and walked out of the dining room, walking around the Chu family's pavilion.
Lin Qiantan is Miss Cousin, in fact, she is no stranger to the grass and trees of the Chu family. A few people stopped and talked about some old things when they were young, and they always got tired of talking.
It wasn't until Chu Lingshen unknowingly left the team that Lin Qiantan found that he was already alone with Chu Jiang.
The atmosphere was a little ambiguous, Chu Jiang used his warm voice, with a speed that was not fast or slow, and the two stepped on the road, crossed the fence, walked through the porch hole, and came to a small attic in Chu's house that was rarely used for studying.
The attic is naturally filled with books, but there is no shortage of ancient paintings and famous pianos. On the smooth marble floor tiles, there are tables, chairs and benches. There is a vase of flowers in each of the four corners of the main hall to add bright colors.
Even, when I went up the stairs, on the second floor, there was a drunkard bed blown by the wind blowing the curtain blown in by the half-open window, so that I could rest when I was tired of reading.
Lin Qiantan didn't think anything of it, but Chu Jiang had some crooked thoughts in his heart that were difficult to restrain himself.
When he saw the bed, he was even more inexplicably ashamed. As if he was deliberately diverting his attention, he suddenly diverted the topic to what Lin Qiantan had told him when he came back.
What he said was to remind Chu Ling to set the marriage as soon as possible.
As soon as Chu Jiang said the right thing, he turned his thoughts away.
And Emperor Tianlong really had the idea of including Chu Ling in the harem again.
Chu Jiang spoke a little teasingly: "It's rare for my mother to treat what you say as a holy decree, it can be called a decree." As soon as she heard Lin Qiantan say that the emperor was staring at her little daughter, she was nervous as if she was something.
As he spoke, he laughed out loud as if he had thought of something funny.
Lin Qiantan thought to herself, her warning was delivered in time, this is probably the reason why her aunt is so cooperative and so kind today, right? Chu Ling quickly settled on the family matter, and had an excuse to refuse before the emperor opened his mouth. It's a pity that Chu Ling is married far away, and the wedding date is set for July, which is very hasty.
With a serious and sad topic, the ambiguous atmosphere along the way was naturally dispelled.
The two were alone for a while, and Chu Ling came over unhurriedly as if he remembered that he had fallen behind.
When her voice sounded, Lin Qiantan was staring alone at a fragment of sheepskin hanging on a wall in the Chu family's study building, and she was a little fascinated.
Lin Qiantan's thoughts were interrupted by her, and she quickly took her eyes back and looked at her. In my heart, I quietly put what I was just looking at to heart.
When Chu Jiang came back with a pot of tea from the pantry, Lin Qiantan asked about the thing hanging on the wall as if unintentionally.
I saw a parchment painting about three inches long and wide, carefully sealed in a glass box, fixed about a man above the ground. The parchment canvas in the box has been clearly cut and is part of the complete original drawing.
On the leather surface that Lin Qiantan saw in front of him, what was painted was only a faint fragment of the landscape, and the scenery on the picture was nothing special, but Lin Qiantan was just ...... Recognize it.
Chu Jiang followed Lin Qiantan's point, glanced at the sheepskin, and said with a smile: "I heard my father say that when my grandfather was my grandfather, this thing was hung here." When my grandfather was dying, he only told my father to keep it, but he didn't have time to say what its origin was. I don't know what it is, but my father guesses that it may have been a treasure that my grandfather had picked up from nowhere. ”
Lin Qiantan listened to Chu Jiang's introduction and had a general understanding of the situation.
The Chu family, now it seems that no one understands the value of this sheepskin!
There is still a rumor in the market today, which is that the empire collapsed at the end of the Xia Dynasty, and the Xia Dynasty used the time of two generations of emperors to transfer many treasures and money in the palace to other places one after another, in order to make a comeback in the future. Later, this matter was rumored, and people called it "the treasure of the Xia Dynasty".
It is rumored that if you get a treasure, you will win the world, but Lin Qiantan doesn't think so-rumors have always been exaggerated, but this treasure does exist.
Lin Qiantan, as a tenacious student, saw a record of the treasures of the Xia Dynasty on the bookshelf of the Yin family. also vaguely speculated through the text and guessed that the late emperor of the Xia Dynasty should have divided the treasure map into five, but it was not clear who they gave it to.
Unexpectedly, I could see one of the fragments in a remote study building of the Chu family being treated as an ordinary calligraphy and painting, and it was so generous to hang it on the wall.
Lin Qiantan thought it was funny.
And just now, when Chu Jiang was away, she had clearly identified this piece of the wall...... It's a genuine article indeed!
Lin Qiantan was a little excited, as if she had glimpsed some great secret, she wanted to share it with others immediately, but she was cautiously reluctant to share it with others. Even if she was as close as a cousin, she chose without hesitation and concealed the origin of this thing.
Lin Qiantan's expression was actually a little strange, and Chu Jiang and Chu Ling both noticed it. But the brother and sister both thought that maybe it was just Lin Qiantan who liked such things.
When Lin Qiantan left the Chu family, she didn't take this piece of infinitely valuable sheepskin with her, but she didn't think that such a thing would be pulled by Jiang Ningniang soon after, and it was taken as a dowry and put in Chu Ling's cage.
