Chapter 80 The better the better the day, the worrying
The deeds of the painter have spread throughout the painter world, and everyone knows that the royal painter Yue Hualiang, who was recruited by the Seven Princes' Mansion, died.
I heard that the Seven Princes treated him well before the death of Yu Hualiang, and all painters who have a little ability want to take their works to the Seven Princes' Mansion to recommend themselves, in case they are taken by the Seven Princes, then they will be glorious and rich.
But no kind of work can get into his eyes, there is a painter in the Qionglin Painting Club, the family has a few money, and his relatives are still officials in the court, so everyone has to give him some face.
No, he also set his sights on the position of the queen painter of the Seventh Prince, but he couldn't paint eye-catching works, so he thought of a way.
It was to buy other people's paintings as his own, and he just bought a picture of a night lotus pond from the Wenchuan Painting Club in Jincheng, and when he first saw this painting, he felt as if he could suck himself in.
I seem to be in such a beautiful scenery, the moonlight shines clearly in the water, and the fish in the pond can even see the lines on the tail of the fish.
There seemed to be a crisp insect chirp in his ears, and he immediately applauded, if the Seventh Prince saw this painting, then he wouldn't be flying away?
In the three years that Yu Hualiang left, the Seventh Prince sent people to look for him every year, but unfortunately it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, which was not easy to say.
It's early summer again, and the Seventh Prince is tired of watching the twists and turns, and he looks up at a few paintings hanging on the wall, and he is in a trance.
It would be nice if the painting was better by his side.
Thinking so, he picked up the token and looked at it, and now, although the Seventh Prince still doesn't want to believe that Yue Hualiang is dead, he still misses a man for so many years.
The day before yesterday, I dreamed that Yu Hualiang was sitting on the grass in a quiet night, watching the fireworks, and the Seventh Prince wanted to hug him, and suddenly the whole world flashed and disappeared like fireworks.
When he woke up in a dream, he was pinching the token and breaking out in a cold sweat, wondering if it was a reminder to see the fireworks?
In a few days, it was his birthday, to be exact, it was his and the fourth prince's birthday, he sighed and called Ye Fang into the house and said, "Go and announce it, buy some fireworks and set off on the king's birthday." ”
Ye Fang was shocked, the Seventh Prince didn't have any requirements for birthdays before, why did he want to see fireworks this time? But this is also a good thing, the Seven Princes have been sullen in the past three years, and it is good to watch the fireworks and have fun.
When the seventh prince looked at the fireworks on his birthday, he didn't have any expression on his face, and he kept thinking, what is this a reminder to see? What's so nice about fireworks?
The fourth prince came to his side and said, "Seventh brother, good Yaxing." ”
The Seventh Prince breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and congratulated, "I wish the fourth brother a happy birthday." ”
"Haha, the seventh brother is too, but why are you still so sullen?" The fourth prince sighed: "You haven't laughed since your little painter died, don't worry about it, how long has he been dead." ”
The seventh prince didn't speak, and the fourth prince patted him on the shoulder and said in his ear: "Okay, your fourth brother knows that you like him, so I specially found you a few who look like him..."
"Fourth brother." The Seventh Prince interrupted him and said, "Thank you Fourth Brother for your kindness, forget it, Fourth Brother should keep it for himself." ”
"Huh?" The fourth prince still wanted to stop him from saying a few words, but the seventh prince walked fast.
Suddenly, I heard that an adult had given him a painting, and I was annoyed, but when the next person opened the painting and showed it to everyone to enjoy, the eyes of the seventh prince lit up.
A familiar feeling came to his face, and he snatched the painting from his hand, looked at it carefully, and then took the painting in front of everyone.
The adult who sent the painting saw that there was light on his face, and the other adults also congratulated him on this treasure.
Sure enough, after a while, the Seventh Prince sent someone over to ask him where this painting came from.
He accepted a bribe from the painter of the Qionglin Painting Society and recommended him to the Seventh Prince.
The Seventh Prince actually invited him into the house, but it was the torture room that just came and went, and under the pressure of the Seventh Prince, he finally said the true source of this painting: Jincheng Wenchuan Painting Society.
That was the first time Ye Fang had seen the Seventh Prince smile in the past three years, his hand holding the painting trembled slightly, and the Seventh Prince couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.
He compared the painting with the few that hung in the room, and realized that it was really the work of one person.
That is, he is still alive.
The Seventh Prince was lying on the bed of Yu Hualiang and fingered the purple jade token, and when he was happy, he couldn't hold back his tears.
Ye Fang came in and saw such a Seventh Prince, and he had the idea of looking for a Taoist to exorcise evil spirits for him.
"Back to the prince, the flying pigeon has sent a message to them to go to Jincheng immediately to investigate."
The Seventh Prince smiled and said, "Ye Fang, pack up your things, let's go to Jincheng." ”
Ye Fang worried: "Lord Wang... Can be facing center. ”
The Seventh Prince's eyes swept over him, and Ye Fang immediately shut up: "You can do it, this king has his own way." ”
The seventh prince went to ask the emperor for a private visit to observe the people's situation this time, and quietly arrived in Jincheng, and no one was alarmed.
In early summer, the sun is warm, the breeze is not dry, and goodbye is like a world away.
The streets and alleys of Jincheng Changfeng are very lively, there are all kinds of things to buy, and Yue Hualiang set up a table on the side of the street, and there are a few paintings on the table.
Although he was dressed shabby, he had a smile on his face, and he looked quite leisurely, and when he raised his sleeves, the Seventh Prince saw that there were scars on his arms.
I don't know what he's been through in the past three years.
Suddenly, a sister-in-law came in front of him and patted his table and said, "Hey! Drawing, are you good at drawing? ”
Yu Hualiang looked at her and said politely: "It turns out that my sister-in-law is here, don't worry, I'll find it for you." ”
Said that this Yu Hualiang rummaged on the table for the painting of the sister-in-law, and then he took out a picture of the baby and handed it to the sister-in-law.
The sister-in-law looked at it and nodded and handed him eight cents, Yue Hualiang took the money and counted it: "Sister-in-law, it's ten wen." ”
"Hey, it's all the neighbors, why are you caring about these two pennies?" The sister-in-law sprinkled with him.
The seventh prince saw the anger in his heart, thinking that the more he painted, he was a first-class painter, and he was born in a more family, and since he was a child, he was a young master of Jin Gui who came to stretch out his hands for food and open his mouth, and now he has been reduced to buying people on the street for ten dollars and a painting.
The seventh prince who watched it felt sour in his heart, and he really wanted to hold him in his arms and cherish him, but the time when he jumped off the cliff was vivid, especially the sentence "You have been forcing me" was the most hurtful.
Although the Seventh Prince didn't know how he survived, he didn't dare to approach him easily, otherwise next time... Maybe you won't be able to find him again.
Yu Hualiang sighed and said: "They are all neighbors, are you missing these two cents?" ”
The sister-in-law was speechless by him, and Yue Hualiang raised his voice again: "If you say that my Ding Liang's painting skills are not good, then I will give you for nothing if I am painting!" Why don't you pick fault with me? ”
The sister-in-law's face was pulled and he was excited, picked up the painting in her hand and stared straight at it, thinking that she had to pick out the bad things for him, but it seemed that she didn't see anything bad for a long time, and the sister-in-law could only smile and take out the two coins from her arms and hand them to him.
Yu Hualiang took the money and smiled at his sister-in-law, and after the sister-in-law left, Yue Hualiang was counting the ten dollars, and the sunlight in front of the table was suddenly blocked, and he looked up and was bored, this fat girl is here again!
"Ding Gongzi, how are you thinking about it?"
Yu Hualiang took the money into his arms and looked embarrassed: "Mrs. Wang, are you going to hang yourself on my tree?" ”
Mrs. Wang stomped her feet and her voice was sharp: "Oh, what is Ding Gongzi talking about!" Whoever calls the son is really handsome, this is for me to say that the matchmaker is lined up from the north of the city to the south of the city! ”
The more she painted Liangbai, she was about to close the stall and leave, but Mrs. Wang's eyes quickly pressed him and said, "Ding Gongzi is really not in love?" The daughter of the Wang family is out of grace. ”
Seeing Yu Hualiang's reaction, Mrs. Wang said again: "I don't like it, the Sun family of the rice shop in Beicheng, hey, the girl in his family is a water spirit, and she still has money!" ”
Yue Hualiang dragged the painting she was pressing with a cold face, and Wang Pozi's mouth couldn't help but she said again: "I still don't like it?" That Li family! That family, that daughter..."
"Mother-in-law! Go aside! Ding Liangke is my brother-in-law! ”
When Yue Hualiang heard this, he could only say this to the eldest young master of the Qi family of the Wenchuan Painting Society, Qi Feng.
When he first came, Yu Hualiang was painting on this street, and whoever came and went was selling and buying, but no one paid attention to him when he came out.
At that time, it was winter, and the more the painting was frozen, his hands were stiff, and he accidentally dropped the inkstone to the ground and shattered, and the ink spilled a shoe.
This person is Qi Feng, the more he paints it, the more he looks at this Qi Feng chief, Gao Ma has a domineering face, and he can't tell that he is a painter at all, and he is followed by a few small followers who look not easy to mess with.
At that time, it was like thinking, it's over, he just came here and caused trouble.
Yue Hualiang can coax this person to run and definitely not be beaten, he compensated him first, who knew that Qi Feng would stare at him intently.
So he was Yue Hualiang's first customer, and this kid saw that Yue Hualiang was a talent, and he wanted to pull him to the Wenchuan Painting Club.
However, Yue Hualiang refused, he heard that Jincheng's paintings would also be sent to the capital to buy, if there were one or two pairs recognized by acquaintances, it would be a disaster.
Who knew that this guy actually used his sister in order to keep him, and Yue Hualiang was hiding from these two guys, and I don't know what kind of unlucky day it was today.
It's really a blessing, and the disaster is not a one-way street!
Mrs. Wang couldn't provoke him, gave him a roll of her eyes, and then smiled at Yue Hualiang and said, "Ding Gongzi has to think about it carefully and come to you in a few days." ”
As soon as Mrs. Wang left, Qi Feng leaned forward and said, "Brother Aliang, have you thought about it?" ”
Yu Hualiang looked unhappy: "Who is Ah Liang?" ”
Qi Feng looked confused: "It's not.. That's what the little brother next to you called you. ”
"Qi Gongzi, you let me, I'm going to close the stall." Yu Hualiang issued an eviction order.
Qi Feng heard it, but he was still cheeky like a scoundrel and said: "Collect the stall, Brother Ah Liang, how about I invite you to drink?" ”
When it comes to drinking, the more good it is, the more you will blow up: "Don't mention drinking to me!" ”
"What's wrong?"
"Last time, you dragged me to your painting club and drank, and drunk me and tricked me into painting! I ask you what about painting? ”
Qi Feng snickered: "That, I guess it's hanging in someone's house." ”
Yue Hua said angrily: "You guys have sold!" ”
Qi Feng shouted aggrievedly: "Didn't you also give you money?" ”
He drank too much at the time, and people said that they would buy him a painting for a piece of silver, and he happily agreed.
Seeing that Yu Hualiang didn't speak, Qi Feng went over to hook his shoulder, and the Seventh Prince's eyes were straight, and he couldn't wait to go over and chop off his arm immediately.
Yu Hualiang opened his hand and said coldly: "I won't be fooled again, don't pester me." ”
