Chapter 782: Authenticity
And finallyβ
The Marquis of Dongxiang carried two paintings out of the imperial study.
As for why he helped Princess Duanhui move, he didn't tell the emperor, leaving it to the emperor to figure it out for himself.
If it weren't for the face of the iron mine, he wouldn't have let go of his mouth and let the emperor crown Su Jin as a princess.
After a few more words, I couldn't help but want to beat him up.
Watching Dongxiang Hou walk away, the emperor was still confused.
The only thing that is certain is that the Marquis of Dongxiang has long coveted the fiefdom of Princess Duanhui.
What was there on that fief that he coveted like that?
The emperor is distracted.
Fu Gonggong walked towards the wall where the paintings were hung.
There were originally three paintings hanging on the wall, but two of them were taken away by Dongxiang Hou, leaving the middle one unwanted.
It wasn't that he kindly left one for the emperor.
It's really that he dislikes the painting.
Just......
Just ......
The Marquis of Dongxiang openly robbed the emperor's paintings, and he also stepped on the emperor by the way.
"This fake painting, don't say anything, does the emperor plan to hang it here all the time?"
"Anyway, it's also the imperial study, just hanging a fake on the wall, and the ministers who pass by can see it, everyone knows that the emperor is so foolish."
Glancing back at the emperor, Dongxiang Hou took a scroll of the painting, turned around and left.
Father-in-law Fu is waiting by the emperor's side, and he is used to seeing good things.
He really didn't see that the painting was fake.
If it is a fake painting, it will be too damaging to the emperor's identity if it is hung on the wall.
Gonggong Fu took down the painting, and the emperor over there said, "Chuan Zhenbei Wang Shizi entered the palace to see me." β
Father-in-law," ....... β
Get.
The emperor is picking up soft persimmons and pinching them.
The Marquis of Dongxiang dared not take the emperor's questioning seriously, but the prince of Zhenbei did not dare.
The prince of Zhenbei Wang escorted the eldest princess of Jiuling back to Beijing, and took a detour from the fiefdom of the eldest princess of Duanhui.
Two days after he came back, Dongxiang Hou sent the Flying Tiger Army to help Princess Duanhui move.
If you say it's okay, no one will believe it.
Gonggong Fu sent the little father-in-law to pass the word, and the painting book was taken down by the little father-in-law, and the emperor said, "Take the painting." β
This painting is one of his favorites.
The emperor never thought that the painting was fake.
The painting is hanging so far away, Dongxiang Hou can see that it is fake just by a few glances from a distance?
Father-in-law Fu unfolded the painting, and the emperor looked at it very carefully.
After watching it for a long time, the emperor's face darkened.
This painting seems to be real or fake.
Afraid that the emperor would lose face repeatedly, Gonggong Fu hurriedly said, "I haven't heard that Dongxiang Hou has attainments in antiques, calligraphy and painting." β
But all those who have attainments are particularly fond of these things.
Dongxiang Hou is different.
He robbed these calligraphy and paintings, and nine times out of ten he didn't enter the Dongxiang Hou Mansion, and went directly to the pawnshop.
What's worse is that Dongxiang Houdian's people are all working.
After the pawn, it doesn't count if you take the money and leave, but also send the pawn ticket to the emperor.
The emperor's heartache is not counted once, but it has to be heartache again.
What you can see in the imperial study is the emperor's favorite.
Especially calligraphy and painting, the emperor has to appreciate it from time to time.
Knowing that calligraphy and painting are in the pawnshop, can you not send someone to redeem them?
After redeeming it, he didn't dare to hang it in the imperial study, and hung it in the dormitory, so it was inevitable to repeat the mistakes of the past......
Father-in-law," ....... β
However, the money from Dongxiang Hou's sale of calligraphy and paintings was used to add food to the Flying Tiger Army.
The amount of food raised by the Flying Tiger Army in Qingyun Mountain is far from being comparable to that of ordinary soldiers.
The amount of food in a Flying Tiger Army has caught up with that of a general.
The Flying Tiger Army only has eight or nine thousand people, and there are more than 20,000 ordinary troops with the highest amount of food.
The treasury is empty, and there is no war yet, so if you eat so much, those generals will inevitably have opinions.
In addition, the state treasury pays military salaries and grain and grass according to the person's hair, and will not be given more because of the large amount of food.
How can the soldiers train if they don't have enough to eat?
The training intensity of the Flying Tigers is worthy of the food they eat.
The Marquis of Dongxiang will not embarrass the emperor on the face and make it difficult for the emperor to be a man.
When it was time to buy grain and grass, he came to rob the emperor's calligraphy and paintings.
Although the emperor is depressed, he can't stop it.
The Flying Tiger Army is well led by the Marquis of Dongxiang, but the army is still from the imperial court.
If the imperial court doesn't raise them, does it want Dongxiang Hou to raise them himself?
He has to have that money.
Isn't this forcing him to rob others?
It's just that the emperor's small treasury is almost empty.
Gonggong Fu doesn't remember when the emperor last rewarded the concubine......
The emperor was still looking at the painting, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was fake.
But he and Dongxiang Hou have known each other for many years, and he really doesn't know that Dongxiang Hou has the ability to see through real and fake fakes at a glance.
However, the emperor will not ask the Marquis of Dongxiang, he wants face.
The Marquis of Dongxiang will not tell the emperor, he also wants face.
Can the Marquis of Dongxiang tell the emperor that he doesn't look at the authenticity of the painting, but by the face?
Although Dongxiang Hou is not good at distinguishing the authenticity, he is not weak in terms of words and colors.
A few days ago, this painting had just been hung, and when Zuo Xiang entered the imperial study, he saw the painting at a glance.
It just so happened that Dongxiang Hou was also there.
When Zuo Xiang entered the imperial study, he looked at the painting twice.
When I left the imperial study, I looked at it a few more times, and my face was terrified.
Dongxiang Hou knew that this painting was not only fake, but also the real work was in Zuo Xiangfu.
Otherwise, there are three paintings, and it makes no sense for Zuo Xiang to only look at one, and still show such a look.
The paintings treasured by the emperor are fake, but what he treasures is genuine, if this matter is stabbed to the emperor, can the emperor not lose face?
Can you not get angry if you lose face?
The emperor only felt that he had lost face here with Dongxiang Hou, after all, he was used to it.
Speaking of others, it can also be said that the emperor has let him ...... for the sake of the deceased Concubine Yun and the Marquis of Dongxiang who have raised the princess for more than ten years
When Zuo Xiang showed a worried look, Dongxiang Hou smiled at him.
Zuo Xiang's heart and liver trembled for a long time.
In the entire court, Dongxiang Hou only smiled at two people.
One is the emperor, and the other is the prince of Chongguo.
One was robbed by Dongxiang Hou from time to time.
From time to time, he was pitted by Dongxiang Hou and couldn't get up.
Can the left minister not be afraid?
He admits that he has never opposed Dongxiang Hou Ming's writings.
Dongxiang Hou patted Zuo Xiang's shoulder and said with a smile, "That painting is hot, it's a pity to destroy it, why don't I take a genuine piece and exchange it with you." β
Sounds quite empathetic.
Zuo Xiang is very reluctant, but it is not worth taking the risk for the sake of a painting.
The Marquis of Dongxiang had never been so polite to the courtiers, caught him a handle, and did not take advantage of the fire to rob, but exchanged with him.
No matter how you look at it, it has the meaning of wooing.
Although Chongguo Gong has not lost power, his power is not as good as before, and it is not a bad thing to take the opportunity to make friends with Dongxiang Hou.
What's more, now, he has no choice.
Zuo Xiang endured the pain and changed with Dongxiang Hou.
He is afraid of the emperor, but the Marquis of Dongxiang is not afraid.
It's just the genuine handiwork sent by Dongxiang Hou, and it almost didn't choke Zuo Xiang to death.
The real thing is the real thing, and it's true, if it's fake.
But the real work was painted by Dongxiang Hou himself......
The left side of the painting is that he hasn't slept all night.
He thought he was also an old fox, but when he met Dongxianghou, he was bullied into a sheep and had no power to resist.
