Chapter 81: A Stroke of God (Part II)

On the second day, Shu'er and Lin Ying discussed their illustrated plans for presenting to King Zhao in the small courtyard assigned to them by King Zhao. Lin Ying stayed awake all night, and with the impression of visiting Zhao Palace with Princess Zhao yesterday, she hurriedly produced a sketch of Zhao Palace that was six feet long and about four feet wide. Qing Yu and Yi Feng each held one end of the scroll, slowly unfolding the painting scroll, Shu'er's eyes showed a large-scale architectural drawing with exquisite painting, and while he was amazed, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lin Ying with a tired face.

Lin Ying pointed to the picture scroll and said proudly: "This is the result of my play yesterday." All the courtyard houses of Zhao Palace are all in this picture. Sister Shu'er, how do you want to transform Zhao Palace into the largest luxury inn in all of Kyushu? I'll draw it for you. ”

Shu'er said distressedly: "You go to sleep for a while, and when I think about it, I'll tell you." ”

Lin Ying shook her head and said, "I didn't mark this sketch, I'll tell you what each place is first, and then I'll go to sleep." ”

Shu'er was about to drive Lin Ying away and let him go to rest quickly, when someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard, and a woman's voice came through the courtyard door: "May I ask Boss Yan and Mr. Su have already gotten up?" ”

Lin Ying said to Shu'er: "Listen to the voice, it should be the maidservant girl who accompanied Princess Zhao yesterday." ”

Shu'er looked at Lin Ying suspiciously: "When did you capture the heart of Princess Zhao?" Why did the princess of a country come to see you early in the morning? ”

Lin Ying blinked her eyes, which were slightly red and swollen from painting all night, and smiled: "Maybe she came to see you?" Didn't she go to Chen Guo to send you an invitation to the Pingliang Chamber of Commerce? ”

Shu'er said helplessly: "I'll go and open the door to the admirers of 'Mr. Su'." ”

Duguqing and her maidservant stood outside the door prettyly, the maidservant carried the food box, and Duguqing held the fan that Lin Ying painted yesterday. The maidservant handed over the food box and said, "Boss Yan, I heard that the two of you didn't go to the garden for breakfast yesterday, and the princess specially instructed the kitchen people to make some porridge and side dishes. ”

Shu'er took the food box and thanked her: "Princess Lao bothered. ”

Dugu Qing walked up to the still unfolded scroll and exclaimed, "This is ...... Painted by Mr. Su? ”

Lin Ying said with a smile: "Thank you princess for taking me to visit the Zhao Palace yesterday, I didn't dare to slack off, so I rushed to make this sketch overnight, if there are any mistakes or omissions, please ask the princess for a little guidance." Duguqing carefully admired Lin Ying's sketch of Zhao Palace, Lin Ying said: "I don't remember the names of some courtyard palaces very clearly, so I haven't annotated them yet, if the princess doesn't mind, can you tell me again?" After speaking, he turned his head and grimaced at Shu'er, as if to say, "It just so happened that she came to read the name of the palace to you, and it saved me from contribution." ”

Duguqing nodded and said, "Of course you can." So he pointed to the buildings and houses on the picture scroll and explained them one by one. Lin Ying listened carefully again and remembered all the names clearly, but the more Shu'er listened, the more she was in a trance, and she thought with some sadness: "You are worthy of being the princess of Zhao Kingdom, and you know Zhao Palace so well." If I return to the White Jade Palace, I'm afraid half of the palace won't know where it is. ”

After Duguqing finished speaking, he said to Lin Ying: "Mr. Su paints hard, but you should pay attention to rest, and you can't be lazy in your diet." If three days is not enough, I can ask Brother Wang to extend it for a longer period of time. ”

Lin Ying shook her head and said, "How can the king's words be changed at will?" The princess's heart, our two brothers understood, but three days was actually enough. ”

Dugu Qing sighed: "Mr. Su's painting skills are outstanding, it would be good if he could stay in Zhao Palace for a while longer." With that, he turned around and walked out the door, her thin back was like the woman Lin Ying painted on her fan, lonely and depressed.

The maid opened the food box and brought out the porridge and side dishes, and put them on the stone table, and whispered to Lin Ying and Shu'er: "The princess lives in a simple house, and she doesn't have any friends to talk to on weekdays, so it's rare to fall in love with the two distinguished guests, but unfortunately the two can't stay in the Zhao Palace for a long time, and the princess is happy and sad at the same time." ”

Shu'er and Lin Ying glanced at each other, but they didn't know how to answer. The maid also sighed and left with Duguqing.

Lin Ying frowned while drinking porridge and said, "Sister Shu'er, doesn't Princess Zhao really take a fancy to one of you and me, and wants to be a colt, right?" ”

Shu'er shook her head and said: "Looking at her like that, it's not like she's in love with you and me, it should be really lonely in the deep palace, and I want to talk to people." Even if you do, it's definitely not me, but the talented you. She herself said that you have excellent painting skills, so you should stay in Zhao Palace for more time. ”

Lin Ying said with a smile: "Sister Dugu, it's a sister, Sister Shu'er, it's also a sister." For whom should I go and for whom should I stay? ”

Shu'er patted him on the head angrily and said, "You dare to call Sister Dugu this title?" ”

Lin Ying rolled her red and swollen eyes, although she was a little tired, she didn't hide the clarity of her agility at all. He smiled and said, "Sister Shu'er, can I also draw a fan for you?" ”

Shu'er glared at him and said, "I don't want noodles, as long as you finish the porridge and go to bed quickly!" ”

Lin Ying smiled and went back to the house to sleep, while Shu'er unfolded the sketch of Zhao Gong on the case in the house, carefully thinking about how to rebuild it. She probably had some ideas, but she felt that she still needed some real scenes, so she took the Huaiwang Sword, called Yi Feng, who was guarding the Huaiwang Sword, and accompanied her to visit the Zhao Palace.

With the drawings drawn by Lin Ying, she walked in the Zhao Palace step by step, and couldn't help but secretly marvel at Lin Ying's painting skills. She always knew that he liked to paint landscapes and pavilions, and occasionally painted flowers and birds, but she never knew that his memory was so superb that he could draw so accurately after visiting the Zhao Palace. She thought to herself, "Such an amazing memory, I'm afraid it's not a comfortable thing for him, right?" I have been able to live freely all these years, in fact, because I can forget some things appropriately, so that I can have no obsession and no worries. But he has the ability to never forget, so the past must be vivid. If he lived a peaceful and joyful life, wouldn't it be hard to forget if he encountered setbacks? ”

Shu'er walked and stopped, and gradually creeped in the empty Zhao Palace. Although Zhao Palace is the smallest and most concisely decorated among the palaces of the Kyushu Kingdoms, it inevitably looks huge because there are too many vacant places. Shu'er felt that King Zhao and Princess Zhao were really painting the ground as a prison and living a quiet life like a cultivator.

Walking in the clean palace path, there are a few peach blossoms sticking out from the palace wall in disrepair, carrying wisps of piano sound, shackling Shu'er's footsteps.

The sound of the piano was melodious, and the falling flowers were falling, and she sat on the ground stupidly, leaning against the gray and white palace wall, just to listen to the lyre song.

She understands the rhythm of music, because Su Qin and Lin Ying are both masters of playing the piano, and she will guide her a few times casually, and she can also come to simple tunes at her fingertips, and she has also learned opera singing with Song Yun for several years. However, Su Qin and Lin Ying's piano music are both good at technique, and they rarely play such simple tunes that she can play at will. But she could tell that although the notes of this piece were few and slow, the pianist was a master and could bring out every note to the extreme. Each note, which seems to have a unique shape and color, paints the sentimentality in the heart of the player. provoked her to sit on the ground and startled.
