Chapter 35: Painting the Seventy-two Peaks of the Foggy Mountains

In the palace, Chun Meiren was bored walking in the garden, looking outside the palace gate from time to time.

Finally, the palace maid Mei'er trotted in all the way.

"Beauty, the princess of "Qinglian" really passed the primary selection and entered the second round of selection. ”

Chun Meiren crushed the flowers in her palms, and at the same time finally understood everything.

Why did the emperor allow himself to wear hometown clothes, it turned out that the emperor remembered the sister of the princess "Qinglian", so he let himself cover his face with a veil and imitate Princess Yulian, who hurt her face, this is one.

"Qinglian" princess just entered the palace pretending to be stupid and stunned to deceive the emperor, although the emperor found out that she was grounded, and never mentioned the matter of marrying the princess, but allowed anyone to enter and leave the Lonely Garden, it was clear that it was just a small punishment, harmless, this is two.

The queen and all the ladies went to Gufangyuan to take some yoga classes, the emperor never asked, but also allowed them to do any auction fundraising, and even auctioned her the beloved things he collected, this mind is obvious! He almost told the princess to come to my arms and admit my mistake again. This is three.

Therefore, after the emperor punished the "Qinglian" princess for being grounded, he only came to the palace once.

It turned out that the emperor's heart had never really been on himself from beginning to end, he was just a temporary substitute, and now, when the main lord arrived, he had to stand aside.

This shame, how can it be swallowed alive, Chun Meiren stands with her eyes closed, like ten thousand arrows piercing her heart.

"Beauty, don't worry too much, the emperor doesn't seem to care very much about Princess "Qinglian", and now she is still left to fend for herself in the Lonely Fang Garden? Mei'er tried to comfort Chunmei.

"No, the emperor cares about her very much." Jun Meiren shook her head slightly.

"I just sent a few gossips about the princess outside, and the emperor immediately began to protect the calf, which is too obvious." Jun Meiren then gritted her teeth and said.

"The beauty is saying that the emperor held this selection meeting for Mr. Song Jiangzi in order to punish Song Jiangzi, so in what way does the emperor want to punish Song Jiangzi?"

With Mei'er's IQ, of course, she can't understand the depth of the emperor's scheming.

"We'll see!"

The corners of Junmeiren's mouth turned into a contemptuous and unfathomable smile.

Yulian was successfully shortlisted with the Five Bull Diagram, not to mention how happy she was.

The top ten famous paintings in ancient China are really not covered, but fortunately, I racked my brains and finally drew a picture of five cows with my memory and skills, and passed the test in danger.

Today, the second round of artist selection is the right day, Yulian told the stream to stay at home, so she came to the painting academy early with the pearl.

Two rows of curtains were laid out in the early morning in the academy, six in each row, and each candidate was alone in a curtain, painting quietly on the spot, without signing, only writing the number of the painter, and the judges only needed to evaluate the paintings, and did not know who the painting was from.

Emperor Xuanyuan sat in the center of the cloister, with Songjiangzi on the right and the east on the left.

"Please ask the emperor to make a proposition!" Matsueko said respectfully to the emperor.

Xuanyuan Xuanling lowered his head and pondered for a while: "The first round is based on birds, beasts, and poultry, and the second round is based on mountains!" You can do it freely, and you don't have to stick to the form. ”

Matsue stroked her beard and nodded in agreement.

Dongfang stood up and repeated the emperor's words in a loud voice.

The painters in the curtains, after hearing the proposition, held their breath and thought carefully.

Taking mountains as a proposition seems simple, but it is extremely difficult to stand out.

Because the mountains are magnificent, beautiful and straight, steep and steep, quiet and mysterious, these images have long been portrayed many times, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to win in this kind of painting.

Besides, among these painters, there must be many people with excellent painting skills, and if their painting style is the same as everyone else's, it will be even more difficult to stand out.

What to do? What to do?

Mountains, what kind of mountains, are rarely seen?

Yulian almost bit the pen to pieces, but she still didn't come up with it, and she didn't start writing.

The curtain barrier of the jade lotus is at the far end of the left.

The curtain is extremely thin, and you can see the movement of the people inside.

Dongfang saw that everyone else was immersed in painting, and the princess was still biting the pen.

Dongfang unconsciously looked at Xuanyuan Xuanling, wondering if he was worried about the princess?

Xuanyuan Xuanling was leisurely sipping tea in a cup at the moment, and he didn't even glance at the direction of Princess Qinglian.

Dongfang was so angry that he looked at Xuanyuan Xuanling more carefully.

He held the teacup in his hand, savored it slowly, and his attitude was leisurely, and this demeanor seemed familiar.

By the way, isn't this exactly like the first cow drawn by the princess?

The cow was eating leisurely, and he was just scratching the itch.

Dongfang couldn't hold back a smile and looked at the princess again.

Fortunately, she was already drawing, and Dongfang breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the princess seemed to have only drawn a few strokes, then threw down the brush, calculated that it was still early, and actually put her hand on her forehead and fell asleep.

Xuanyuan Xuanling only glanced at the princess who was sleeping at this time, and the corners of his mouth seemed to show some smiles again, and even his eyes became doting.

Finally, two hours came.

The subordinates took the paintings in turn and presented them in front of Songjiangzi.

Matsue carefully examines these paintings:

"This Heavenly Emperor Mountain's top Lingyun Peak, dangerous!!"

"This Lingshan Xiunu Peak, Jun Xiu!"

"This Wushan Cloud and Rain Valley is secluded and quiet!"

Every time Song Jiangzi finished reading a painting, he nodded his head frequently in appreciation, or shook his head silently, and then put it on both sides according to the priority.

"Huh, what is this?"

Song Jiangzi suddenly raised the painting in his hand, his eyes widened, and he looked at it carefully.

Dongfang saw that he had been watching it for a long time, and he didn't put it down, and he didn't know what kind of shocking masterpiece it was, so he also stepped forward to take a closer look.

"Huh, what is this?"

Dongfang's reaction turned out to be exactly the same as that of Matsueko.

After a long time, Dongfang squinted at Song Jiangzi, and saw that he still didn't mean to put the painting down, so he said, "Mr. Song, which side is this one to put on?" ”

Does the East mean to put it on the side of You? Or should you put it on the next side?

Song Jiangzi still couldn't make a decision, so Dongyi took the painting and placed it in front of Xuanyuan Xuanling.

Xuanyuan Xuanling saw that there was no mountain on the painting, only a curved path, and at the end of the path was a large white and dense fog.

In the whole painting, there is not even a shadow of a mountain.

But to talk about mountains? There is really a mountain character on the painting.

There is an inscription on the right side of the painting: Foggy Mountain. Seventy-two peaks.

Not only mountains, but also seventy-two peaks?

It's just that people call it the foggy mountain, and the fog is too big, covering all the peaks, so I only see the dense fog, but I don't see the peaks.

The corners of Xuanyuan Xuanling's mouth moved again, such an opportunistic person, he could think of it with his toes, this person was......

He put the painting back in Matsueko's hand and said, "It's all up to Mr. to decide." ”

Matsue no longer hesitated, and put the painting on the side of the second.

When Xuanyuan Xuanling saw it, his brows did not wrinkle.

Matsue then picked up another painting, and after taking a closer look at it, her eyes immediately became different.

"This ......"

When Dongfang saw it, he stepped forward again to watch.

This one doesn't matter, and the eyes also shine with it.

"Yes, it's wonderful." Two words were added to the comment.

It turns out that on this painting, there are no obvious mountain peaks, only white clouds one after another, bending and stretching, layered, far and near, high and low, scattered in a patchwork manner.

No, it's not clouds, it's tree after tree, decorated with white and flawless pear blossoms, looking from afar, it looks like a clump of white clouds, floating under the blue sky with different expressions.

And what is regarded as wonderful and wonderful by Songjiangzi and Dongfang is the pear blossom tree in the near future.

I saw the pear blossoms of this tree as white as jade, like a group of dancing women, fluttering with the wind, spinning and moving, graceful, as if the fragrance of pear blossoms has jumped out of the paper, fresh and natural, refreshing, drunk in it and can not extricate themselves!

In this picture, there are no mountains, but only a few touches of greenery are faintly visible, hidden in the sea of flowers.

The absence of mountains does not mean that there are no mountains, but the mountains are hidden by the pear blossom trees of one tribe after another.

No, there is also an inscription on the right side: Hearing the snow of thousands of trees in the foggy mountains, how about you want to get drunk.

Matsue looked at the number, painted by the fifth painter.

Obviously, this picture of pear blossoms in the Foggy Mountains and the fog map in the foggy mountains just now are both from the same person.

This person is smart and sensitive, and he realizes that if he only draws the foggy mountains in the dense fog, it is very likely that he will be considered to be stealing tricks, and he will not be able to show his true strength.

Therefore, there is one more ingenious painting.

This person is not only smart, but also delicate, chose the season of pear blossoms in April and May, depicted the stunning pear blossom clouds, and also showed the profound strength of the pen.

It's the same foggy mountain, but it's a different foggy mountain, and the seasons change, and the landscape in the mountain naturally changes with it.

That's why as soon as Matsue picked up the painting, his eyes lit up.

He thought to himself: "This painting is ingenious, and it takes the two paintings to form a complete work, which is unique and ingenious, and it is a material that can be made." ”

Song Jiangzi thought about it, picked up the foggy mountain again, and put it on the side of You, together with the pear blossom picture.

After another half an hour, Matsueko finally made a choice.

A total of six winners were selected, and after three days, they could enter the third round of selection, and finally select the best top three to work at the Palace Painting Academy to teach the children of the royal family the art of painting.

In Fanghua Palace, as soon as Dongfang saw the princess "Qinglian", he pointed to the princess and said with a smile: "The princess's painting is amazing, how did you think of the mountain in the fog out of thin air?" ”

"Of course I didn't think it out of thin air, this is the foggy mountain in my hometown!" Yulian said proudly.

"The pear blossom of ten thousand trees is also true."

"Pearls aren't so real."

When Dongfang heard the princess answer this, he stroked his hands and laughed.

After laughing, he said leisurely: "Don't be careless, princess, what about the third round?" I guess the emperor's brother-in-law will come out with a "water" in the third round.

"Really?!" Yulian was a little unconvinced.

"The emperor's brother-in-law! I still understand, so he won't spend time thinking about this? It's either mountains or water! And the flowers have already been painted by you, so they can only be water. "Dongfang is very honest.

Water, water again!

Yulian's head was big when she heard the water, and she felt that her biggest problem every time seemed to have something to do with water......

While chatting happily, the emperor walked in with a cold face.

After Yulian respectfully saw the salute, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the emperor's cold face, but his expression was very subtle, holding a piece of rice paper in his hand.

Yulian fixed her eyes: "Tian~"

She couldn't help but rush forward and snatch the piece of paper......
